Chapter 141

Splash...

He Pingsheng jumped into a clear mountain stream to let himself cool down.

Having just finished reading the 【Nineteen Chapters of Imperial Phoenix】, He Pingsheng felt his heart surging and his whole body burning, his mind filled with the image of Seeing Qiao Huizhu.

He had originally thought these Nineteen Chapters of Imperial Phoenix were a cultivation technique.

As it turns out... bullshit!

It was just a classic on the mechanics between men and women.

Whew...

After soaking in the stream for a while, He Pingsheng felt much better.

He put his Daoist robe back on, returned to his small courtyard, and sat down cross-legged.

But for some reason, he simply could not focus his mind to cultivate; his mind was still filled with the image of Seeing Qiao Huizhu.

"I just don't know if throwing this thing into the Treasure Gathering Basin can strengthen it?"

"Let's try!"

On a whim, He Pingsheng threw the 【Nineteen Chapters of Imperial Phoenix】 into the basin.

Then, he also threw in a mid-tier 【Foundation Establishment Pill】.

He placed the basin in his treasure bag, and the treasure bag in his own invisible storage bag.

This time, He Pingsheng no longer worried about being seen by others.

Next, time to sleep!

He tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep well, dreaming of Seeing Qiao Huizhu several times. The first thing he did when he got up in the morning was to take out the items strengthened in the Treasure Gathering Basin to have a look.

No surprises, the mid-tier Foundation Establishment Pill had been strengthened into top-tier.

And there were two of them.

The greenish Foundation Establishment Pills were covered with a layer of mysterious purple.

He Pingsheng grabbed a jade bottle and hurriedly put the Foundation Establishment Pills away.

Once he gets the 【Red Essence Ginseng】 later, that will be a guaranteed Foundation Establishment stage.

Hahaha...

Fantastic.

Turning his gaze back to the Treasure Gathering Basin, what made He Pingsheng somewhat excited was that the 【Nineteen Chapters of Imperial Phoenix】 had also been strengthened.

One book had become two.

He took one out at random to flip through it.

Name: Hehuan Jiji Jing.

Tier: Heavenly.

Function: Yin and yang complement each other, miraculously infinite.

After roughly looking at the general outline, He Pingsheng discovered that this was actually an extremely superior dual-cultivation technique.

The second book!

Name: Spring Breeze Smiling Method!

Tier: Heavenly!

Function: Yin and yang complement each other, miraculously infinite.

Alright, both of these are miraculous techniques.

But He Pingsheng had no interest in cultivating them.

Put them away.

Looking at the daylight outside, He Pingsheng stepped out of the small hut and came outside.

He had agreed with his Senior Brother and Senior Sister to head to the Black Frontier today.

They were going to search for that 【Red Essence Ginseng】.

But just as he left the courtyard, he received a message.

"You can't go anywhere recently!" Yu Ning looked at He Pingsheng with a serious face: "The Biyun Laozu wants to see you!"

"Oh!" He Pingsheng nodded and said: "I'll go right now!"

"Wait..." Yu Ning said: "It's not your Master Chongyang, it's... the Biyun Laozu of the Tai Xu Men, the Tai Xu Biyun Laozu!"

"Who?"

He Pingsheng was so scared he stopped in his tracks.

Tai Xu? Biyun Laozu?

That great Nascent Soul!

Hiss, hiss, hiss...

He Pingsheng suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

A great Nascent Soul.

"What are you afraid of?" Yu Ning said: "Are you afraid the Biyun Laozu will eat you? Rest assured, the Biyun Laozu is summoning you over this time mainly to ask about the Hou family and the Beast Taming Sect!"

"You go over with Master Chongyang!"

"The Master is waiting for you at the main hall, go yourself!"

He Pingsheng suddenly felt another layer of coldness on his body: "Master, if you don't go... I'm afraid..."

"Don't be afraid!" Yu Ning reached out and gently patted He Pingsheng's shoulder: "Rest assured, just say whatever there is to say, as long as you don't hide anything!"

"The Biyun Laozu's spiritual sense is incomparably vast. If you lie and your spiritual sense fluctuations are captured by him, you'll be in trouble!"

He Pingsheng shrank his head: "Master, stop scaring me!"

"Go!" Yu Ning waved her hand.

He Pingsheng took a deep breath and headed toward Master Chongyang's main hall.

"Not bad!" Master Chongyang stared at He Pingsheng and said: "I heard you kid actually slaughtered a Foundation Establishment?"

"A bit interesting!"

Master Chongyang's expression was calm, but his mouth was full of praise.

He Pingsheng gave a bitter smile and said: "Grandmaster, how could a disciple slaughter a Foundation Establishment stage? It was when he was sword-flying that he accidentally fell off and died from the high-altitude fall!"

"That's not bad either!" Master Chongyang said: "If it weren't for your attack, he wouldn't have dropped his flying sword."

"Cultivation, cultivation; talent and aptitude are important, but opportunity, luck, and a clear, calm mind are even more important!"

"Facing a Foundation Establishment stage disciple, you were still able to guide the situation and remain calm!"

"Commendable, truly commendable!"

"Let's go, come with me to Jade Dragon Peak to see the Biyun Laozu!"

"Eh?" Chongyang raised his eyebrows and said: "You seem very afraid?"

He Pingsheng had a bitter face: "Disciple... has never seen a Nascent Soul stage great power before!"

"My heart is uneasy!"

Chongyang said: "If there is no ghost in your heart, you won't be uneasy!"

He Pingsheng curled his lips, hurriedly took a deep breath, and stood at attention: "The disciple is upright and honorable!"

"Hmm!" True Person Chongyang said: "Just saying it is enough. We cultivators are engaged in a struggle for life against the heavens. If we are rigid and stiff like clay statues or wooden carvings, how can we bear the Great Dao?"

"Be flexible and adaptable. When you should be upright, be upright; when you should be evil, be evil; when you should be ruthless, be ruthless!"

"Only then can one survive one in ten thousand on this Great Dao!"

While speaking, True Person Chongyang threw out his flying sword directly, not taking the teleportation array, and took He Pingsheng sword-flying away.

In a few breaths, they landed on the plaza of Jade Dragon Peak.

On the plaza, there were many teleportation arrays.

Leading to the major mountain peaks within the Tai Xu Men.

"Grandmaster, is our Supreme Biyun Laozu the kind who is super old?" He Pingsheng asked, glancing at the towering Tai Xu Main Hall.

"Hmm!" Biyun Laozu Chongyang said: "Three hundred and twenty years ago, when I was still a youth, I entered the Biyun Laozu's sect. At that time, he was already at the Nascent Soul stage!"

"If you calculate it, the Supreme Elder should be over nine hundred years old now!"

Speaking of this, Biyun Laozu Chongyang's brows furrowed fiercely.

A Nascent Soul stage great power has a lifespan limit of one thousand years.

At over nine hundred years old, it won't be long before the Master falls into the dust, yet the massive Tai Xu Men still doesn't have a qualified successor, nor does anyone have hope of breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm within a hundred years.

The Tai Xu Men is not far from decline.

Sigh...

Chongyang sighed secretly, then, as his whisk waved, headed toward the Tai Xu Main Hall.

He Pingsheng followed behind him, cautious and careful.

The main hall ahead was tall and towering.

But this main hall was not golden; it was black.

Black brick walls, black wooden pillars, black eaves and brackets.

As He Pingsheng walked closer, this black main hall grew larger in his eyes until it filled half the sky before him.

With a hum.

A golden light membrane suddenly appeared out of thin air.

This is the protective array of the Tai Xu Divine Hall; once someone approaches within ten zhang, the array will automatically appear.
