Several days later.
Flying Boat docking area.
Another large-bellied Flying Boat arrived from the distant horizon, wobbling as it descended.
After the Flying Boat had steadied, its door opened with a clang, and a throng of Cultivators stread out.
Among them, so had faces brimming with anticipation for the future, while others could not conceal their looks of worry.
Beside another Flying Boat, which had finished its inspection and was prepared to take off at any mont, a large amount of cargo was being loaded aboard, with a few passengers occasionally showing faces filled with fatigue and weariness.
All of this contrasted sharply.
’It’s quite interesting indeed.’
Fang Xing’s Cultivation Avatar, dressed in a silver Magic Robe, prepared to queue up for boarding.
He was, of course, the relative referred to by his original self.
Su Ye might still have so feelings for Fang Yun, but to plot against a re Qi Cultivation junior was not worth her consideration; she directly gave him the pass docunt and a token.
And with that, Fang Xing boarded the ship.
Even if a Jiedan Cultivator were to arrive, his body would only appear as a Qi Cultivation junior with not a flaw in sight.
"Halt, you’re boarding the ship?"
At the boarding gate, two disciples of the Myriad Beasts Sect stopped Fang Xing, "Your ticket and token, please?"
Both n appeared to be in their thirties or forties, exuding a shrewd and formidable deanor.
The one on the left was leading a spiritual dog, while the other had a rodent head peeking out from his embrace, its beady eyes emitting an inch-long glint; surprisingly, it was a treasure-seeking rodent!
The Myriad Beasts Sect was renowned for Beast Taming, and naturally, many of its disciples were masters of this craft.
"Here are the ticket and the token."
Fang Xing took out a wooden boarding token and a letter from the bundle on his back.
The token appeared quite crude, yet it cost a mid-grade Spirit Stone, much pricier than before!
As for what was written in the letter, it wasn’t important. What mattered was the imprint of Mana from a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator on it!
"Hm? It’s actually a guarantee from a Foundation Establishnt elder of the Qingxuan Sect?"
The disciple leading the spiritual dog from the Myriad Beasts Sect seed surprised and turned to his companion, "Brother Lian?"
"Ha ha, please don’t take offense, fellow Daoist. Our three Sects are branches of the sa tree after all, we’re all on the sa side, but we still have to follow procedures..."
Brother Lian stroked his treasure-seeking rodent, letting it sniff Fang Xing’s bundle.
Witnessing this scene, Fang Xing remained composed, but inwardly he thought himself fortunate.
He had guessed that the Myriad Beasts Sect’s Flying Boat wouldn’t be so straightforward, and there might well be so security inspection asures.
After all, that Jiedan Cultivator from the Myriad Beasts Sect sent people to search for lost treasures and naturally wanted to prevent embezzlent.
Therefore, he had early on placed valuable items like the Ten Thousand Transformation Cauldron and Second Rank Demon Core into the bronze ring, along with a large quantity of processed dicinal materials. He gave these and two other storage bags to his original self.
Now he was totally free of incriminating items, except for a hundred or so Spirit Stones and a few First Rank Magic Artifacts.
If the Myriad Beasts Sect should see these and still kill to rob them, then there was nothing Fang Xing could say; he would simply have to grow stronger and eradicate the Myriad Beasts Sect in retaliation.
’Speaking of which... my transmigration initially anchored on the location of transmigration... currently, it anchors on the whereabouts of my Cultivation Avatar...’
’Thus, once my Cultivation Avatar reaches the Fertile Wilderness, my original self can co directly... and the coordinates for future transmigration will be in the Fertile Wilderness.’
’It’s a pity I can’t leave a transmigration anchor here; that would have been much more convenient...’
As Fang Xing’s mind wandered, the treasure-seeking rodent had already sniffed him all over without detecting anything unusual.
"Alright, please board the ship, fellow Daoist. Your room is on the second floor, Yi character, number three..."
Brother Lian smiled and gave a salute with his hands.
"Fellow Daoist, your spiritual pet is indeed mysterious... The Myriad Beasts Sect’s art of Beast Taming is truly admirable."
Fang Xing found this akin to the Beast Tars of the interstellar era and couldn’t help but want to delve into it.
"Heh heh, the journey is long, we fellow Daoists can certainly gather to have tea, discuss the Dao, or even hold a small trade eting..." Brother Lian, who had a pleasant personality, chuckled in response.
Only after Fang Xing entered the cabin did Brother Lian’s deanor beco solemn again.
"Brother?"
The disciple leading the spiritual dog whispered, "This person doesn’t seem to have used any disguising or cultivation-hiding techniques... Otherwise, he would have been detected by this ’Mountain-searching Dog’. This is a special gift from our Uncle-Master Lian; unless it’s a Jiedan True Person acting, no one could slip by..."
"He doesn’t radiate treasure light; so he mustn’t have brought any treasures above Second Rank. He’s too clean, which is odd... Qinglin Square is no benign place, so to co here to take risks and then leave with nothing?"
Brother Lian suddenly asked, "Did you notice his cultivation level?"
"Woof woof woof!"
Before the disciple could reply, the Mountain-searching Dog imdiately barked three tis.
"Qi Cultivation Stage Seven, ah, to think this young man has reached the late stage of Qi Cultivation," the disciple sighed, "Once this mission is complete and I return to our Sect, I should also be able to exchange for a ’Minor Breakthrough Elixir’ and advance to the late stage of Qi Cultivation, right?"
"That person looks very young, not like he’s taken any Youth-preserving Elixirs or the like... Perhaps, he himself is a great treasure!" Brother Lian stroked his chin.
"That... In the Cultivation World, there are not a few thods to preserve youth; so Cultivation Techniques co with a youth-maintaining effect, and then there are secret techniques... Isn’t that too speculative?"
The disciple hesitated, "Moreover... even if he is a gem of talent and beauty, he would’ve been noticed by the Foundation Establishnt Elders of the Qingxuan Sect long ago. What could you or I possibly do?"
"Hmph, Qingxuan Sect was okay in the past, but ever since that Jiedan True Person died, it’s beco a fallen household."
Brother Lian sneered and then said, "This is just a guess of mine. On the journey ahead, we can interact more, and incidentally assess a few other fat sheep..."
"Everything is as Brother says."
This disciple was sowhat helpless, but what choice did he have when his Brother’s surna was Lian!
Not only was ’Lian Fengqi’, the Foundation Establishnt Late Stage Cultivator guarding Qinglin Square, his uncle, but this branch of the family also had connections with the Jiedan Elders of the Sect.
