Recently, I do need some Spirit Stones,\" Luo Lingling’s eyes curved into crescents, \"wait until the future...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Between us, such talk would be too formal.\" Zhou Qing interrupted with a smile, but when he lowered his head, a hint of seriousness appeared in his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Blood Phoenix Tribulation Crystals inside the Storage Bag were emitting a strange red glow. Thinking about the massive energy required for the Spirit Severing Realm in the future, his heart grew heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Top-Grade Spirit Stones, it’s best to accumulate them early, the more, the better!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he was different from ordinary people!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the following days, Zhou Qing first infused fourteen Wood Attribute Spirit Stones into the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus the two given by Jin Mantang earlier, it was just enough to meet the demands for condensing five thousand Spirit Seals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The conditions Sikong Yan wants help with can be achieved ahead of schedule.\" He murmured to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even he felt a bit surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for those Blood Phoenix Tribulation Crystals, he specially took out two and handed them to Luo Lingling: \"Senior Sister, you can keep these to use when breaking through realms, make sure outsiders don’t see them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is...?\" Luo Lingling accepted the blood-colored crystal stones with confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good stuff.\" Zhou Qing smiled mysteriously without further explanation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Luo Lingling didn’t understand, she still carefully kept them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the upcoming days, Zhou Qing comprehended the Spirit Severing Realm insights provided by the Lu sisters while fully absorbing the Blood Phoenix Tribulation Crystals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When, over a month later, the Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree once again gathered an ethereal aura, he began the hurried process of recreating Spirit Seals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, until one day six months later, the secluded cultivation room suddenly shook violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing abruptly opened his eyes, surrounded by five thousand splendid Spirit Seals like a river of stars, each solid and tangible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The aura around him was also several times richer, every move carrying profound Dao rhyme.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This feeling is truly captivating!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lowered his head to look at his own palm, fingers slightly curling as he felt the surging power within, a gleam of excitement in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moments later, he retracted his aura, absorbed all the Spirit Seals back into his body, then tidied his robes before slowly pushing open the cabin door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During these six months of secluded cultivation, Luo Lingling consistently served as a guardian, ensuring no one disturbed his cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, the massive Cloud Whale now seemed unusually empty, with only a handful of people aboard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made it easier for her to wander around with the old hen, so she wasn’t bored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thankfully, these six months passed peacefully without any unexpected events.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Zhou Qing stepped onto the deck, Jin Mantang spotted him from afar, quickly jogging over with a face full of smiles: \"Mr. Ji, you’ve finished your secluded cultivation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping across the cloud layers below, asking: \"Where are we now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Mantang answered respectfully: \"Thanks to your improvements to Cloud Whale’s array, our speed has greatly increased. According to the current pace, we should reach the Imperial City in about four months.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While speaking, a series of light footsteps sounded from a distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Lingling strolled over leisurely, holding the old hen, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes upon seeing Zhou Qing emerge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, she said nothing, merely nodding slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old hen clucked timely, tilting its head to scrutinize Zhou Qing with its beady eyes, seemingly reassessing this long-absent master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a guard ran up excitedly, unable to hide his enthusiasm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He first respectfully saluted Zhou Qing, his eyes full of admiration, then turned to report to Jin Mantang: \"Shopkeeper, a flying ship is approaching, it claims to be ’Mystic Sky’, requesting to establish contact with Cloud Whale!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mystic Sky?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Mantang was initially stunned, then a glow of joy flashed in his eyes as he hastily said: \"Quick! Establish transmission immediately!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned to Zhou Qing to explain: \"Mr. Ji, Mystic Sky is an escort ship of our Duobao Trading House, special for searching for lost caravans in emergencies, headquarters surprisingly sent them here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Qing nodded slightly, his gaze deep as he looked toward the horizon where sea meets sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, a silver flying ship broke through the clouds, gracefully staying in sync with Cloud Whale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ship’s design was sleek, its hull engraved with intricate array patterns, evidently more advanced than the Cloud Whale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the flying ship steadied, the cabin door opened, and several figures stepped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leading them was a middle-aged man in embroidered robe, his expression calm, eyes sharp, exuding a powerful aura of Divinity Transformation Realm Perfection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jin Mantang?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged man immediately recognized Jin, standing on deck, a look of surprise appearing on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re still alive?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Mantang smiled bitterly and cupped his hands: \"Shopkeeper Chen, it’s been a while.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged man known as Shopkeeper Chen quickly approached, examining Jin Mantang from head to toe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he glanced at the few survivors on Cloud Whale with a furrowed brow: \"Headquarters found five tribute’s Soul Lamps extinguished, so sent me to search. Thought you all were already... \"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jin Mantang sighed deeply before suddenly recalling something: \"That batch of goods... was it sent to the headquarters?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shopkeeper Chen gazed at Jin Mantang with a complex expression, his Adam’s apple moving a few times before finally nodding slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This matter... Headquarter indeed owes you. Of course, I only recently learned of the inside story.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Never mind,\" Jin Mantang waved a hand, pulling a bitter smile at the corner of his mouth, \"if it were me, I’d make the same decision.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shopkeeper Chen sighed, patting his shoulder: \"Thank you for understanding, surviving is already a blessing. Headquarters sent me originally to search for wreckage, bring back some clues, didn’t expect...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily fell upon Zhou Qing and Luo Lingling.\u003C\u002Fp>",1000,"2026-06-09T06:34:20.685Z",1,"novelbin.me","d0adcdbe943ec2a39647ec1847e7dc131409ed3ecbd12ae048a48ef806d90c4b","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-1075","the-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-chapter-1073",1176,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-sect-leader-has-taken-in-a-new-female-discip-cover.jpg"]
