Mortal: Fifteenth Realm Sword Cultivator

Chapter 97 Seeking a Blessing

Not only that.

Wang Heng also learned that among the pearl-diving women, there was a Core Formation cultivator named "Lady Tuoyan".

It is said that she is active in the Inner Star Sea, but it is unknown whether she is in Tianxing City.

If we can get in touch with this lady through them and persuade her to become an elder of worship.

The Miaoyin Sect's foundation and strength will undoubtedly be further enhanced.

Especially since the other party is a female cultivator, she is a natural fit for the Miaoyin Sect.

In this way, not only can we gain a Core Formation stage cultivator, but we can also completely bring the Pearl-Diving Maidens lineage under our wing.

No wonder Zhou Yuan was so emotionally expressive.

Only a few years have passed since the storm at the abyss, but the ocean monster tides have not only failed to subside, but have intensified, occurring almost every year.

As a result, all sorts of rumors flew around.

Most of these stories came from cultivators who escaped from the Demon Beast Sea Abyss.

It is said that a human Nascent Soul cultivator brazenly killed a transformed demon, which angered the demon race and led them to retaliate.

Although those below the Nascent Soul stage are all ants.

However, there are also differences in strength among Nascent Soul cultivators.

His combat strength is self-evident, given that he can hunt down an eighth-tier transformed monster on his own in the open sea.

Especially since the other party was a rogue cultivator —

If we can truly receive his protection, as long as this senior does not perish along the way, the Miaoyin Sect can at least maintain peace and stability in Tianxing City for another thousand years!

After a long silence, Zhou Yuan solemnly said, "In my opinion, we shouldn't send out these invitations."

Wang Heng was puzzled upon hearing this. "Why?"

Zhou Yuan said with unusual seriousness, "My husband and I will go there again in person."

After saying that, she looked down at her sleeping daughter in her arms with tenderness and added, "Take the child with you."

Wang Heng was initially somewhat bewildered, but he instantly understood his wife's deeper meaning, and a smile of approval immediately appeared on his face as he repeatedly said, "Good! Good! Good!"

His gaze fell on his daughter's rosy cheeks, and remembering something, he asked, "By the way, this child hasn't been officially named yet, has she?"

Zhou Yuan shook her head and said softly, "Not yet. The full moon is approaching, and I was thinking of deciding then, but—"

A glint of anticipation flashed in her eyes, "If we happen to go there this time and that person has just emerged from seclusion or is still alive, perhaps—"

"Why not shamelessly ask him to name the child?"

A glint flashed in Wang Heng's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "This matter cannot be forced; we should just go with the flow. If we can truly gain their favor and have them name this child, it will be an immense opportunity. No matter how our circumstances change in the future, this connection will have been established."

Zhou Yuan nodded repeatedly, her eyes full of agreement and expectation: "My husband, this is exactly what I've been thinking."

She paused, a hint of hesitation on her face, and said softly, "But wouldn't acting this way make us seem too calculating? I'm afraid it might displease our seniors."

Upon hearing this, Wang Heng gave a self-deprecating bitter smile. "Madam, you are overthinking it. How many cultivators in Tianxing City do not know the current reputation of my Miaoyin Sect? Rather than hiding it, which would only make us seem hypocritical and pretentious, it would be better to be frank. What kind of person are Nascent Soul cultivators? How could they not see through our little schemes? Hiding it would only make us look inferior."

Zhou Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "If our daughter is indeed given a name by that senior, I think we can put aside our desire to curry favor for now and not be in a hurry."

The Miaoyin Sect has weathered many storms over the years. Although it is now in a difficult situation due to being targeted by that person, it is not entirely without room for maneuver.

"Next century, the Grand Elder will take charge of the Star Palace. We just need to find a way to stall for time; the other side might not dare to make a move next year."

Upon hearing this, Wang Heng seemed to be deep in thought, and his fingers tapped lightly on the armrest.

After a long silence, he finally nodded emphatically, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes: "What you say is absolutely right, Madam."

This couple has been inseparable and of one mind since they first got together.

The entire sect was filled with beautiful women, a veritable den of beauties.

It is rare for Wang Heng, the sect leader, to be loyal to only one person, which even seems out of place.

Inside the alchemy room.

Lu Jianghe's spirit stirred slightly as he suddenly remembered that the essence of that reptile was still sealed within the "morning dew" of his robe.

Such demonic spirits and essences are filled with malevolent energy and have a mixed origin, which is completely contrary to the "Water Elixir" refining method that extracts the essence of heaven and earth, so they cannot be refined.

As for ordinary cultivators dealing with demon souls and spirits, they generally refine them into talismans or seal them into magical artifacts using secret methods to act as artifact spirits, thereby enhancing the power of the magical artifacts.

But for Lu Jianghe, all of these were like chicken bones, utterly useless.

Even if we take a step back and refine it into the robe—the thought was rejected by the Yin spirit the moment it arose.

Ultimately, the essence of this demonic beast does not belong to the innate five elements that Lu Jianghe needs.

The Yin spirit, with its flowing ink-wash style, glanced over the original body seated cross-legged in the center of the alchemy room.

The deity sits cross-legged with eyes closed, hands folded on the abdomen, breathing deeply and calmly, in a state of meditation and spiritual fasting.

On the Yin God's ever-changing face, there seemed to be an indescribable hint of appreciation.

It must be said that such a serene and still, selfless and detached state of mind, after being observed for a long time, is indeed quite pleasing to the eye and has a natural quality.

"I wonder—after refining all these water pills, will my cultivation level reach the perfection of the Golden Core stage?"

The Yin spirit whispered silently, its form rippling slightly, calculating the key points within.

Just then, Lu Jianghe's spirit suddenly turned its head and looked in a certain direction.

Then it passed through the wall.

Inside the pavilion, Yan Ruyan and Xin Ruyin sat facing each other.

Yan Ruyan's tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction, "Judging by the days, it's been almost a month, why hasn't the invitation from Miaoyin Sect arrived yet? Have that couple already forgotten?"

Xin Ruyin continued, "They don't seem like the type to be so negligent."

Yan Ruyan pursed her lips: "That's what they say, but it leaves you feeling a little uneasy, like you're being kept in suspense."

As soon as they finished speaking, they felt the temperature of the surrounding air drop sharply.

They felt a chill run down their spines and turned to look at each other.

Lu Jianghe, the Yin spirit, was already standing quietly outside the pavilion, his back to them.

The two women quickly stood up and bowed respectfully, saying, "Senior Lu."

Lu Jianghe's spirit slightly turned its head in response, and then casually waved its hand.

The outer layer of restrictions on the cave immediately split apart to both sides.

Just then, at the very moment the formation was activated, someone came riding the wind from afar.

It was Mr. and Mrs. Wang Heng.

What is particularly eye-catching is that Zhou Yuan is also holding a tiny, exquisitely beautiful baby in her arms.

The mother's spirit protects and shields the body.

The baby girl's two pink little fists were slightly curled up, and her two big, bright, clear eyes looked around curiously, her little head turning constantly.

They seem to be full of fresh curiosity about everything around them.
