39: 39 Gold Ant_1 39: 39 Gold Ant_1 “Taoist Friend Li, when you’re free one day, shall we spar again?”
Lu Yudie said with a smile.
Cloud Dream Mountain had a Martial Training Ground where cultivators competed and sparred.
Shen Long had sparred with many Qi Refining Cultivators, defeating many of them but also suffering losses.
“Let’s talk about it another day when I’m free.”
Shen Long gently declined.
“Then it’s settled, Taoist Friend Li.”
Lu Yudie said with a smile.
Shen Long nodded with a smile and said nothing more.
The courtyard door opened, and Zhao Feng ca out.
“Taoist Friend Li, Taoist Friend Lu, Fairy Lu, you are all here, please co inside.”
Zhao Feng said warmly, inviting them in.
The courtyard was about an acre in size with half an acre being a Spirit Field.
There was also a fish pond, a three-story red loft, and a red stone pavilion.
Three n and two won gathered in the stone pavilion, where Ye Yutang and Ye Yuqing were both present.
Lu Shan looked towards a man in his forties wearing a red shirt, and said with a smile, “Taoist Friend Wang, long ti no see, I thought sothing had happened to you.”
“We were seriously injured while hunting Monster Beasts and had been healing up until recently when we finally recovered,”
the man in the red shirt explained.
Wang Shuo, at the ninth level of Qi Refinent.
“Fairy Lu, it’s been a while, and you’ve advanced to the eighth level of Qi Refinent, congratulations!”
A young man in a yellow shirt who bore a strong resemblance to Wang Shuo greeted Lu Yudie.
A young man in a blue shirt, also resembling Wang Shuo, looked towards Shen Long with a smile and said, “Taoist Friend Li, when you are free another day, shall we have a spar?”
The young n in yellow and blue shirts were Wang Shuo’s sons, nad Wang Long and Wang Hu respectively.
Wang Shuo had participated in two ascension conferences but failed to be selected each ti.
Now over forty, he exceeded the age limit for taking disciples, so he pinned his hopes on his sons.
Wang Long and Wang Hu were only at the seventh level of Qi Refinent, with less than half a year left until the next ascension conference.
Wang Long took a liking to Lu Yudie, while Wang Hu was keen on cultivation and sparring.
He had sparred with Shen Long twice and lost both tis.
“If I’m free, I will contact Taoist Friend Wang, and we can have a good spar.”
Shen Long agreed.
Shen Long and the others sat down to enjoy so tea and idle chat.
After a short while, Zhao Feng took out a ssaging plate that flickered with red light, input a spell, and a gentle male voice sounded, “Daoist Friend Zhao, we have arrived.”
“Good, I’ll co out right away.”
Zhao Feng’s face lit up with joy as he put away the ssaging plate and strode towards the courtyard door.
He opened the courtyard door, and a handso young man in a green shirt and a sweet-looking young girl in a yellow skirt entered; both had the cultivation of the ninth level of Qi Refinent.
Shen Long and the others quickly stood up, not daring to neglect their guests.
“Let introduce everyone, this is Taoist Friend Su and Fairy Su.”
Zhao Feng warmly introduced them.
“I am Su Tianchen, and I’ve t all the daoist friends here.”
“I’m Su Tianyue, the younger sister,”
the young man in green and the girl in yellow introduced themselves.
Shen Long and the others introduced themselves in turn, getting acquainted.
Zhao Feng invited everyone to sit back down to enjoy so tea and continue their chat.
As the conversation turned towards art techniques, Zhao Feng said with a smile, “Taoist Friend Su, Taoist Friend Li has a notable talent in art techniques, cultivating many first-tier spells to Great Perfection.”
“May I ask, Taoist Friend Li, how many spells have you cultivated to Great Perfection?”
Su Tianchen asked politely.
“At present, four techniques.”
Shen Long naturally didn’t tell the truth, and ntioned one less.
“Four techniques!”
A hint of surprise flashed in Su Tianyue’s beautiful eyes.
Even within the Su Family, there were not many Qi Refining Cultivators who had cultivated four level-one spells to Great Perfection.
It’s not that the disciples of the Su Family didn’t have the talent for art techniques, but rather that few clan mbers did this.
To cast spells instantly, one could simply buy Talisman or Magic Artifacts, or rear Spirit Beasts, Spirit Insects, and Spirit Birds.
There was no need to spend too much ti cultivating art techniques.
Su Tianchen showed an admiring look and asked politely, “May I ask which sect Taoist Friend Li plans to join?”
“That’s not for to decide, is it?
It depends on each sect’s recruitnt conditions, and whether I can pass their assessnt is another matter entirely,”
Shen Long said.
As far as he knew, the Immortal Ascension Gathering lasted for so ti.
Cultivators could take turns participating in the assessnts of five different forces, and would join the sect of whichever force’s assessnt they passed.
“That’s true!
Jinyang True Person of Zixiao Sect has a very high talent in art techniques.
At the Foundation Establishnt Stage, he was able to kill fellow cultivators of the sa stage with his multiple Great Perfection spells.
If Taoist Friend Li is interested in art techniques, you can consider participating in Zixiao Sect’s assessnt.
In addition to art techniques, Zixiao Sect’s Talismans are also very powerful, and they have a fourth-order Talisman Maker.”
Su Tianchen said.
If he could help Zixiao Sect recruit so promising talents, he would also get a reward and make more friends within Zixiao Sect.
Shen Long nodded and asked, “Taoist Friend Su, do you know what the recruitnt conditions of Zixiao Sect are this ti?”
“Firstly, one cannot be older than forty years of age, and the cultivation must be at least at the sixth level of Qi Refinent.
It’s best if one has a talent for Talisman Crafting, but other skilled talents are also welco.”
Su Tianchen said.
“Why has it been lowered so much?
Last ti it was still at the eighth level of Qi Refinent.”
Wang Shuo wondered.
“It’s said that in the last two tis, they did not recruit many disciples, and the good prospects were all taken by Xuanyang Sect.
If they still insist on recruiting Qi Refining Cultivators of the eighth level, they won’t get many disciples this ti either.”
Su Tianchen explained.
Xuanyang Sect was the number one force in Qin Country and was the force that many Qi Refining Loose Cultivators wanted to join, but their recruitnt requirents were very strict.
The crowd suddenly understood; this seed reasonable.
“If Zixiao Sect has lowered its recruitnt requirents, I wonder if Badao Villa, Qixia Sect, and Spirt Control Sect have also lowered theirs?”
Lu Yudie said curiously.
“I’m not sure about that, maybe!
I heard from Daoist Friend Zhao that Fairy Ye is a Talisman Maker.
It would be best to join Zixiao Sect,”
Su Tianchen’s gaze fell on Ye Yuqing as he spoke.
“I’ll see how it goes!
I plan to join the sa sect as my sister,”
Ye Yuqing said.
After chatting for nearly half an hour, Zhao Feng suggested exchanging Cultivation Resources, and all the cultivators agreed.
As the host, Zhao Feng was the first to take out items for exchange.
He took out more than a dozen porcelain vials, all containing first-order Elixirs, of various kinds.
“In exchange for Spiritual dicine, items of equivalent value are also acceptable,”
Zhao Feng said.
Su Tianchen and Su Tianyue were completely uninterested, but Shen Long was intrigued.
However, these elixirs weren’t considered precious, as he could buy them with Spirit Stones.
Wang Shuo and Lu Shan showed so interest and took out Spiritual dicines for exchange.
Zhao Feng traded away four vials of Elixirs, then sat back down.
Su Tianchen took out dozens of items including Spirit Wood, ores, Spirit Water, Monster Beasts Materials, Spiritual dicine, Elixirs, Magic Artifacts, Talismans, and more, saying, “In exchange for materials of equivalent value, Talisman Crafting materials are a priority.”
“Taoist Friend Su, what’s in that jade box?”
Ye Yuqing pointed to a golden jade box, curious.
Su Tianchen opened the jade box, inside were dozens of golden insect eggs.
“These are Gold Ant eggs.
The Gold Ant ranks one thousand and eight on the Heaven and Earth Exotic Insect List, has a preference for eating various tals, is resistant to blades and spears, and can condense into weaponry forms to attack enemies.”
Su Tianchen introduced.
