Chapter 75: Talent Change

~8 min read 1,531 words

Previously, Luo Yao's single Spirit Root purity value was only 1, and that was merely an approximation, but now it had become 4.

In other words, her Golden Finger could truly change her talent.

If used every day, wouldn't her talent keep increasing?

If the Spirit Root purity value reached 10, wouldn't that be the talent of the legendary Heaven's Favorite?

Thinking of this, Luo Yao felt somewhat expectant.

For the following days, Luo Yao was either in seclusion or waiting for the Golden Finger's usage count to refresh.

Whenever she could use it, she used it to change her talent, but the result showed the effect was not obvious.

Just like that, as more and more disciples heard this news, it evolved into a small trading market.

After today, she would leave Xuanyuan Sect, so she must obtain more supplies.

But the Sect Master still had not unsealed the mountain gate.

Xiao Kui straightened her clothes, then, wearing Xuanyuan Sect disciple attire, hurried toward the sect.

Luo Yao, in Xiao Kui's mind, was greatly surprised; on the Square before her, seventy or eighty people had gathered, and many disciples were casually occupying a patch of land, displaying Immortal Cultivation World resources.

Xiao Kui nodded, "You too."

But such a method was soon discovered by Xuanyuan Sect, which also followed suit to craft two Tokens for its disciples.

Even now that the sect was unsealed, a pile of disciples were still trading here.

"Junior Sister has just come out of seclusion..."

As for whose message to deliver, that went without saying.

Moreover, it had to be used every day, which made it impossible for Luo Yao to turn her talent into that of a Heaven's Favorite in a short time.

"Verify the Token; this way, those spies cannot escape, and most importantly, due to the great war, many fake Tokens have appeared."

Helplessly, Luo Yao had Xiao Kui leave.

Fang Qingyan quickly recalled that Xiao Kui had been with Luo Yao before, and it seemed the two had a very good relationship.

Suddenly, as Xiao Kui approached the exit, she was stopped by the guards.

A map of the Immortal Cultivation World in Pingzhou.

Fang Qingyan opened her mouth; she had a thousand words and ten thousand sentences, but in the end, they turned into just one: "Take care."

And when Luo Yao saw that Fang Qingyan was not affected by her defection, she knew it was because Xu Zhanglao was protecting her, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and her final worry vanished.

After Xiao Kui was sent out of the Space Magic Treasure by Luo Yao, she appeared in the grass; she released her Divine Sense, and the back mountain was as quiet as usual, with no searching disciples in sight.

Unfortunately, she wandered around here but did not find the map she wanted.

Fang Qingyan was stunned; apart from Luo Yao, she seemed to know no one else.

And this was exactly what happened when Luo Yao hid inside the Space Magic Treasure.

Luo Yao only knew Xuanyuan Sect and Ziguang Sect; she knew nothing about the situation outside.

So, leaving Xuanyuan Sect, she was still completely in the dark, knowing nothing, and not knowing where to go.

"Since the mountain gate was sealed a few days ago to capture the traitor Luo Yao..."

So, after searching for two days, everyone gave up.

By then, even if facing the encirclement and killing by Xuanyuan Sect disciples, she could hand over the Token to save her life, and she would not have to worry that losing the Token would prevent her from proving her identity upon returning to Ziguang Sect.

Xu Zhanglao's young attendant walked in, interrupting her thoughts.

"Of course!"

She had been in seclusion for four or five days; the blockade of Xuanyuan Sect should have been lifted.

In other words, those disciples of Ziguang Sect all had two identity Tokens.

"You... you are Xiao Kui!"

Luo Yao frowned and had Xiao Kui speak out, "Does one need a Token to go out?"

"I don't know how Little Yao is doing?"

Actually, what Luo Yao lacked most right now was a map.

"Someone is looking for me; who is it?"

Luo Yao walked out of the Practice Room and stretched her muscles and bones.

However, since there was still plenty of time, she was still young, and the Golden Finger had a chance every day; if one year didn't work, she would use ten years; her talent would gradually improve.

Previously, she had specifically asked Xiao Kui to move around the sect; some disciples had seen her, knew she was a Xuanyuan Sect disciple, and would not think she was a spy.

Moreover, there were many types of Pills, whether for cultivation or for healing injuries.

"Stop, Token!"

Walking on the road, there were not many Xuanyuan Sect disciples; obviously, they were all outside participating in the great war, or in seclusion.

That guard was only a Qi Refining Stage 5 disciple; seeing Xiao Kui's Qi Refining Stage 8 cultivation, he patiently explained it to her.

"Ai!"

After Xiao Kui left, Fang Qingyan's mood improved considerably, and she turned to enter the Practice Room; she needed to become strong as soon as possible so that later she could protect Little Yao, instead of having Little Yao flee so miserably.

Occasionally, some disciples saw Xiao Kui, merely glanced at her, did not pay attention, and hurriedly left.

A cultivator of Qi Refining Stage 9 nearby seemed to hear Xiao Kui's surprise and spoke out to explain.

When Xiao Kui passed by the Xuanyuan Sect Square, she found it very lively.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh.

"Senior Sister Fang, someone is looking for you!"

"This is the Sect Master's latest regulation."

In the Alchemy Room of Ju Dan Peak, Fang Qingyan had no heart to refine Pills; she was very worried about Luo Yao's safety; although she had not heard news of Luo Yao being captured, she still felt uneasy.

"When did a market appear?"

Precisely because of the flood of identity tokens, the regulations for entering and exiting have become stricter.

Watching Xiao Kui leave, Fang Qingyan immediately breathed a sigh of relief; the fact that Luo Yao had sent her to deliver a message clearly meant she was safe and in no danger.

Unfortunately, the supplies these disciples were trading were things they themselves couldn't use, and if they couldn't use them, Luo Yao couldn't use them either.

She told Xiao Kui to leave the mountain gate immediately.

Thus, those disciples couldn't go out, nor did they want to seek out Luo Yao, so they gathered together to trade the treasures they had won in the battle.

There is only one way to leave the Xuanyuan Sect, and that is through the main gate.

Once your strength is sufficient, you can go find her.

After all, the Xuanyuan Sect was not large to begin with, and with so many disciples searching together, the entire sect had been turned upside down, yet they still could not find Luo Yao.

However, Luo Yao still told Xiao Kui to wait a moment before leaving.

With a puzzled look, she curiously walked out of the Alchemy Room and saw a somewhat familiar figure.

It turned out that the Xuanyuan Sect had previously decreed that if a disciple killed a member of the Ziguang Sect and brought back their token, they could claim a reward.

It turned out that after the Xuanyuan Sect sealed the mountain a few days ago, all disciples could enter but not leave; they were all actively searching for Luo Yao within the sect, yet they dug up the earth three feet deep and still could not find a trace of her.

"It is time to leave."

Xiao Kui's words left Fang Qingyan somewhat bewildered, but she was not slow to react and quickly realized that she was delivering a message.

Speaking of supplies, Luo Yao had calculated yesterday that she did not lack Pills; before leaving, Fang Qingyan had given her many, and even if they ran out, she could use her Golden Finger to double them.

Obviously, unless the number she threw every time was "7", and moreover, all of them were 7 to the power of 7, her talent would not increase.

Luo Yao suddenly understood, and then told Xiao Kui to thank that person before going to see if there was anything worth buying.

The high-ranking members of the Ziguang Sect also discovered this; to ensure their disciples could survive the war, they once again crafted identity tokens for them.

"I plan to leave, so I am telling you."

But Luo Yao did not go out herself; instead, she sent Xiao Kui out while possessing Xiao Kui's sea of consciousness, allowing her to see the outside situation through Xiao Kui's eyes.

This sudden regulation made Luo Yao's heart sink; Xiao Kui truly did not have a token, and even if she did, they all belonged to Luo Yao, making it impossible to produce one.

But without an identity token, Xiao Kui could not go out either.
