Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

This single move alone made Xu Zhangqing look at the person before him with new eyes.

Unexpectedly, this person's cultivation realm and strength were likely a large cut above the likes of Red Fire and Zhao Chengdao from before — he was absolutely no ordinary disciple.

Either a core disciple.

Or a personal disciple.

Qingxuan narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile: "How is it?"

Xu Zhangqing recovered from his shock and countered: "What magic tool is this of yours?"

Qingxuan smiled faintly: "This is the Daiyu Fan — wind sounds not cold, flowing water not turbid, bird cries not clamorous; it forms a world of its own for my use."

At these words, Xu Zhangqing sucked in a cold breath: "Must it be this outrageous? Or are all you Hidden World Dao Sect people this heaven-defying?"

Qingxuan explained: "No, this was personally bestowed by my Master when I entered the secular world."

Xu Zhangqing appeared thoughtful: "Seems your Master is quite formidable."

Qingxuan did not wish to reveal too much to a stranger, so he extended the Ink Bamboo in his hand forward: "Enough of that — help me see what's wrong with it."

Given the unfathomable depth of the person before him, Xu Zhangqing did not rashly employ magic power, but reached out to touch it once, utilizing the System's ability to analyze.

Results appeared quickly.

Ink Bamboo

White spots hidden yet visible

Spirit Liquid condensed turbid

Spiritual Resonance weak

Turbid Breath invading roots

Spiritual Pulse stagnant

After reading, Xu Zhangqing raised an eyebrow.

Qingxuan blanked for a moment, then asked curiously: "How is it?"

Xu Zhangqing said in a deep voice: "Rather than saying this Ink Bamboo is sick, it's more like this fan has developed a problem."

Qingxuan was surprised: "Is there a problem with the fan?"

Xu Zhangqing pondered: "It, recently has it come into contact with some mixed breaths?"

Qingxuan fell into deep thought, for a long time then lightly nodded: "Correct, half a month ago I made a trip to Nantian City, there I encountered a matter……"

Then, he simply described the situation at that time.

Nantian City belongs to a large city.

Not only does the population reach one million, inside the city are also gathered numerous cultivation clans, forces large and small, and loose cultivators, extremely prosperous.

Ordinary hard-to-see spiritual treasures, over there can always be found.

But this time, when Qingxuan went he unexpectedly encountered someone fighting, initially still not too concerned, but later one of them self-detonated, the breath that spilled out, although did not injure himself, was entirely absorbed by the Daiyu Fan in his hand.

Not long after this, the Ink Bamboo began to have problems.

Xu Zhangqing pressed: "What breath?"

Qingxuan thought and described: "Half yin-cold, half chaotic."

Xu Zhangqing said with certainty: "You encountered an evil cultivator."

Qingxuan slightly nodded: "Recalling, I also feel those two were evil cultivators, then now how to treat?"

Xu Zhangqing seriously thought: "This situation, only treating the Ink Bamboo is useless, must clean out that disruptive breath inside, only then can it thoroughly recover."

Qingxuan's eyes brightened: "As expected, finding you was right."

Xu Zhangqing continued: "To be safe, use the Three Purifications Three Nourishments method."

Qingxuan showed a questioning look: "Three Purifications Three Nourishments?"

Xu Zhangqing explained: "Purify turbidity, purify meridians, purify tranquility.

Nourish foundation, nourish meridians, nourish intent."

Actually, he was also contacting this thing for the first time, previously did not understand at all.

Could only according to his own ideas, combine the information given by the system, thereby make a decision.

As for whether it can work, must try to know.

Qingxuan stuffed the Ink Bamboo back, at the same time put away the folding fan, then stood up and saluted with clasped hands: "It seems this period of time, I will have to keep troubling you."

Xu Zhangqing also stood up and clasped hands: "Why not, stay and eat a dinner?"

Qingxuan laughed and waved hand: "Next time, I still have to make a trip to Sorrowful Wind Cliff."

Xu Zhangqing no longer detained: "Fine, I will see you off."

Not a moment, the two people arrived at the exit position.

Qingxuan walked out of the spiritual array's covered range, looked back, only saw Xu Zhangqing standing there, as if fused into one with the entire Hongfeng Valley, not a trace of incongruity.

Thinking of the other party not even using spiritual power, just analyzed the Daiyu Fan's situation clearly.

Obviously, this Spirit Field Spirit Cultivator's "gold content" is really quite substantial.

……

……

Originally, the Dongting Immortal Sect high level's idea was to use the Canglan Sea Region to exercise the sect's disciples, so that at the Thousand Sects Dharma Assembly time, there would be better performance.

The result was unexpected — Xuanxin City exploded.

The three great immortal sects plus the core disciples and formal disciples of numerous cultivation sects, over ten thousand people in total, ultimately only ten survived.

Even the very famous Qin Hundred Li — his life or death is now unknown, not a shred of news.

This caused the scale to be somewhat smaller than imagined.

They didn't even go to other places.

Dueling platforms were set up at three locations: the Flower Sea, Zhuqi Peak, and Hei Hu.

The Flower Sea is spacious enough, so it accommodates the most Qi Refining Stage disciples.

Hei Hu is second, therefore gathering over ten thousand Foundation Establishment Stage disciples.

Zhuqi Peak originally has nine arenas, just right for Golden Core Stage battles.

Although Xu Zhangqing isn't going to the Flower Sea, his stalls secured many spots in advance.

He had Miao Huayu and the others take out the spirit tools, spirit pills, spirit talismans, and even spirit wine he had refined in advance to sell, and as usual, he put together several package deals.

What Qi Refining Starter Package.

Also the Foundation Establishment Advanced Package.

As for the Golden Core Stage package, it's not that he doesn't want to sell, but he doesn't dare to sell — at most he puts out some premium yellow rice wine to ride the hype.

And Xu Zhangqing, right now, is following Frost Sister, Hu Bugui, Li Sancai, Han Su, Li Xianglin, and the others to the Foundation Establishment Stage dueling platform at Hei Hu.

Since Ruo Qunshuang wants to give it a try, as her "husband" he naturally has to give full support; otherwise he won't be able to answer for it tonight.

In terms of spirit tools, spirit pills, and spirit talismans, preparations are quite sufficient.

On the surface, these look like they were bought at great cost.

In reality, they were refined in advance in private long ago.

Xu Zhangqing reached out his right hand and touched her head: "Remember, if you can't beat them, admit defeat — it's not shameful."

Ruo Qunshuang's face flushed slightly: "Mm-hmm."

Han Su at the side copied him: "Remember, if you can't beat them, admit…"

Li Xianglin rolled her eyes: "I haven't even reached Foundation Establishment yet!"

Hu Bugui glanced at Li Sancai and smiled bitterly: "Welp, looks like only the two of us are the stray dogs on the roadside right now."

Li Sancai took it in stride, long accustomed to a solitary life: "You forgot, I'm Xiang Lin's paternal cousin."

Hu Bugui's mouth corner twitched: "As expected, you didn't understand my meaning at all."

Li Sancai shook his head: "No, I understood — I just don't want to be a… dog."

Hu Bugui gritted his teeth in anger: "Fine, fine, talking to you really makes me want to die of anger — let's just go queue up."

Soon, Ruo Qunshuang and Han Su followed along.

Li Xianglin went to the Flower Sea for the Qi Refining Stage duels.

Only Xu Zhangqing and Li Sancai remained in the audience seats.

"Senior Brother!"

"Hm?"

"Has there been any news of Senior Brother Lingbi?"

"Yes, news came a month ago — he just exited the secret realm."

"Come to think of it, he's been wandering for several years now, right?"

"It's been five years already — who knows when he'll return!"

Qin Hundred Li's disappearance dealt a heavy blow to Li Lingbi.

After all, the two of them have always had a very good relationship.

Who could have imagined — people who once chatted, ate, drank, and shot the breeze together, suddenly gone!

(Today is my birthday, can I ask for a free 'update faster'? There's been too little urging lately, 555!)
