Chapter 167: Green Dragon Sword

Three days later, a shocking piece of news spread throughout Aolai City.

The Seventh Princess Xuanyuan Yue was cultivating immortality.

It was rumored that an old immortal with a white beard had descended upon the palace and personally shaped a spiritual root for the Seventh Princess.

It was rumored that the old immortal had already accepted the Seventh Princess as his closing disciple, and the Seventh Princess would ascend to the Immortal Realm with the old immortal.

Regarding the various rumors from the outside world, Zhang Xingyu did not ask or care.

He stayed in a courtyard in the palace, concentrating on his cultivation.

The cultivation technique was called the Spirit Washing Classic.

The Spirit Washing Classic was a secret method for washing and cultivating spiritual roots, provided by the Aolai King Xuanyuan Wu.

Three days ago, when he saw the little girl's miserable and desperate look, Zhang Xingyu decided to help her.

Zhang Xingyu proposed three conditions to Xuanyuan Wu: first, absolute confidentiality regarding his cultivation of a spiritual root for the Seventh Princess; second, he wanted to consult the secret methods for cultivating spiritual roots collected by the royal family; third, the Seventh Princess Xuanyuan Yue would accept him as her master.

Regarding Zhang Xingyu's three conditions, Xuanyuan Wu and his wife readily agreed.

In addition to the royal secret books, they also prepared several items for spiritual cultivation listed by Zhang Xingyu, specifically including: one Qingluan egg, one portion of heavenly treasures for each of the five elements, three high-grade magic arrays, and one hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones for each of the five elements.

Inside the palace, in the main hall, Zhang Xingyu set up three layers of arrays to isolate external prying eyes.

Lighting spirit incense, drawing spirit talismans, and setting up a spirit altar.

After some arrangements, he let Xuanyuan Yue enter the magic array and, following his instructions, began the soul-burning spirit transfer.

Spirit transfer is very dangerous.

Fortunately, the little girl was simple and kind, and she completed the Spirit Transferring Great Method incredibly smoothly.

As for the various illusions Zhang Xingyu encountered at the beginning, Xuanyuan Yue didn't encounter a single one.

The spirit transfer was successful, and Zhang Xingyu was very happy.

He let the little girl rest in the hall for a day, and then set up a spirit gathering array for her.

Another day passed, and the little girl successfully stepped into the first level of Qi Refining.

On the third day, under Zhang Xingyu's careful guidance, the little girl practiced the Spirit Washing Classic for another day.

After refining a drop of Xuanming True Water, the little girl became a water-attribute cultivator. The spiritual root grade was low-grade Profound.

The little girl became a cultivator.

The immense joy made Xuanyuan Wu and his wife unable to close their mouths for several days.

Just as they were about to express their gratitude to Zhang Xingyu, Zhang Xingyu went into seclusion.

This time, Zhang Xingyu wanted to practice the Spirit Washing Classic to cultivate and improve his own spiritual root grade.

Fire Flame Ganoderma, Heavenly Fire Essence Crystal, these were the heavenly treasures he used to cultivate his spiritual root.

Refining the Fire Flame Ganoderma took Zhang Xingyu one day. One day later, his spiritual root grade was promoted to high-grade Yellow.

Refining the Heavenly Fire Essence Crystal took Zhang Xingyu three days. Three days later, his spiritual root grade was promoted to high-grade Profound.

Zhang Xingyu was extremely excited.

The spiritual root cultivation was successful.

Up to now, his spiritual root grade had surpassed the spiritual root grade of most cultivators.

If he could find higher-grade fire-attribute heavenly treasures, his spiritual root grade could continue to improve.

Heavenly Spiritual Root, he would eventually succeed in cultivating it one day.

Closing the array, coming out of seclusion, opening the door.

Outside the hall door, the little girl, Zhang Kaixin, and Meng Ruyan were waiting.

Seeing Zhang Xingyu come out, the little girl ran quickly to Zhang Xingyu's side: "Master, you finally came out of seclusion, we have been waiting for you for three whole days."

Zhang Xingyu shook his head: "This girl, she has no manners at all. From now on, it will be enough to give me, the master, a headache."

Zhang Kaixin walked to Zhang Xingyu's side, circled him three times, and muttered softly: "Strange, your cultivation hasn't improved. Why do I feel that your aura is very different from before?"

Zhang Xingyu tapped his little head lightly: "I've been in seclusion for three days, of course it will be different from before."

After speaking, he looked at Meng Ruyan: "Senior Sister Meng, sorry to keep you waiting for so long. These two little guys haven't given you much of a headache, have they?"

Meng Ruyan smiled but didn't speak.

At this time, Xuanyuan Wu and his wife had already received the news that Zhang Xingyu had come out of seclusion.

They rode the dragon chariot and rushed to the outside of the main hall.

They said a basketful of words of gratitude and brought a cartload of gifts of gratitude.

Zhang Xingyu accepted the words of gratitude, but he waved his hand to refuse the gifts of gratitude.

Just kidding, he cultivated a spiritual root for his apprentice, how could he accept gifts of gratitude from her parents?

Seeing Zhang Xingyu's firm attitude, Xuanyuan Wu stopped insisting.

He took Zhang Xingyu's arm and enthusiastically invited Zhang Xingyu to board the dragon chariot.

The dragon chariot stopped at the Asking Heaven Platform.

This Asking Heaven Platform was where the Xuanyuan clan offered sacrifices to Heaven and told their ancestors.

Zhang Xingyu was puzzled, why did Xuanyuan Wu bring him here?

Around the Asking Heaven Platform, magic flags fluttered.

In the center of the Asking Heaven Platform, spiritual smoke rushed into the sky.

Xuanyuan Wu pulled Zhang Xingyu up the steps to the Asking Heaven Platform.

Arriving at the center of the Asking Heaven Platform, Xuanyuan Wu held up three sticks of spirit incense and loudly prayed to Heaven: "By the mercy of Heaven and the protection of ancestors, my daughter Xuanyuan Yue has successfully washed her spirit, and her spiritual root grade is low-grade Profound, hereby burning incense to tell."

After the prayer, Xuanyuan Wu let his daughter climb onto the Asking Heaven Platform, and right in the center of the platform, she solemnly kowtowed nine times to Zhang Xingyu.

After the ceremony, Xuanyuan Yue held up a flying sword with both hands as a gift for accepting her as a disciple.

This flying sword was about one meter long, emerald green all over, the blade was slightly damaged, and the ancient seal characters "Green Dragon" were engraved on the back of the sword.

The moment Xuanyuan Yue held up the flying sword, Zhang Xingyu clearly felt the Fire Dragon at his waist tremble a few times.

Could this Green Dragon have some connection with the Fire Dragon?

He gently took the flying sword.

At this moment, Zhang Xingyu could be considered someone with an apprentice.

After accepting the gift for accepting her as a disciple, he naturally couldn't be too stingy.

As a master, he always had to reward his apprentice with one or two magic tools.

On Zhang Xingyu, the most expensive thing was naturally the Fire Dragon flying sword, followed by the Immortal Binding Rope, and then the ring given by the old dragon.

The Fire Dragon sword had an agreement with him, so naturally, it couldn't be given to his apprentice.

The ring given by the old dragon contained all his spirit stones, so naturally, it couldn't be given either.

How about giving the Immortal Binding Rope?

Just as he was about to take out the Immortal Binding Rope, Zhang Xingyu remembered another thing.

He remembered that on the Gold and Silver Island in the Blue Crystal Sea, he had once opened a shop.

The excellent employee Wutuo in the shop had collected three strange items for him. The first was a piece of human-shaped jade with seven acupoints, the second was a tortoise shell engraved with River Map patterns, and the third was a transparent bead with rippling blue waves inside.

Zhang Xingyu took out the transparent bead from the corner of the ring and handed it to his apprentice.

"Apprentice, this is a treasure I obtained in the past. Today, I will give it to you; you must cherish it well!"

Xuanyuan Yue happily took the bead and shouted loudly: "Thank you, Master. I like this bead very much."

Beside them, Xuanyuan Wu widened his eyes: "A spirit treasure? I let my daughter offer a high-grade magic treasure as a gift for accepting her as a disciple, and her master rewarded her with a spirit treasure. My daughter's master is really generous!" ===== CHAPTER 168 =====
