Chapter 372: Seeing Ruokai Ancestor Again

~7 min read 1,259 words

The flying boat swept across the void, its speed incomparable.

Mountains and rivers whistled past toward the rear; the weather in the void changed unpredictably, sometimes the sun was in the sky, sometimes thunder and rain were intertwined, sometimes wild winds roared, and sometimes snowflakes drifted.

The flying boat traveled a thousand miles in an instant, often seeing different weather in a single moment.

He Pingsheng had long been accustomed to this situation.

The journey went smoothly; three days later, the two safely arrived at Mount Zhongnan.

Mount Zhongnan was a towering, massive mountain range.

Only at the highest peak of the mountain range was there an excellent spirit vein exposure.

The place covered in snow all year round had a world of flowers and willows, like a desert oasis, a fairyland on earth.

Just after landing, rich immortal spiritual energy rushed toward them.

The two landed at the mountain gate; Mi Cangyuan waved his hand and put away the flying boat.

At the mountain gate, a third-layer Golden Core disciple was guarding; he respectfully took the token from Mi Cangyuan's hand and said, "The token is fine, Senior, please enter; you can also bring one person inside!"

He Pingsheng looked up at the mountain gate above his head.

On this mountain gate was a giant rock with four large characters written on it: Zhongnan Immortal Sect.

So this is a sect?

Shocking.

"This Dao discussion meeting was contacted and prepared by the Ancestor of Mount Zhongnan, so it's not strange that it's within the Zhongnan Immortal Sect!"

"The grand meeting is still a few days away; let's follow this disciple to the temporary dojo first!"

Mi Cangyuan explained while walking.

The two followed a Foundation Establishment disciple across the sect and came to a mountain peak at the very back of the sect.

On the mountain peak, there were quite a few buildings.

Everyone was assigned a separate small building.

Including He Pingsheng.

Because He Pingsheng came with Mi Cangyuan, his small building was assigned next to Mi Cangyuan's.

There were still a few days before the grand meeting, but the cultivators who came were invited to a spacious golden hall, sitting together in advance to chat and exchange pleasantries.

In the hall, He Pingsheng's gaze flashed, and he suddenly saw an acquaintance.

This person was tall, with white hair and beard, but the skin on his face was as soft as a baby's.

White hair and youthful face, this was that type.

He Pingsheng recognized this person; about fifteen or sixteen years ago, this guy had walked into his elixir shop and had him refine a batch of mid-tier 【Enlightenment Pills】.

It was precisely that Ruokai True Person.

Beside Ruokai Ancestor were two young boys.

As for whether they were the same two young boys from back then, He Pingsheng didn't know, because he hadn't focused his attention on the boys back then.

At this time, He Pingsheng also remembered the 【Ruokai Mountain Range】 that Master Lu mentioned back then.

I said, why did this name feel familiar at the time?

So the root was here!

"It's you?"

He Pingsheng recognized Ruokai Ancestor, and Ruokai Ancestor naturally saw He Pingsheng too. His eyes narrowed slightly, and then he came to He Pingsheng with a smile: "Little friend, all is well..."

He looked all smiles, appearing extremely kind.

He Pingsheng was not afraid at all and also smiled, saying, "Not bad, I presume Ruokai Senior is also all well!"

"Hmm!"

Ruokai Ancestor nodded, and then, seemingly casually but actually harboring evil intentions, said: "I remember little friend, you possess the origin laws of both ice and fire attributes, hehehe... with little friend joining, this Zhongnan Dao Discussion Grand Meeting will naturally not be lonely!"

As soon as he said this, it immediately drew the gazes of more than a dozen great Nascent Souls in the entire hall toward He Pingsheng.

Everyone came here for that origin law!

And water attribute and fire attribute are among the most practiced attributes in the Cultivation World, especially fire attribute.

The demand is extremely high.

"Hmph..." Mi Cangyuan snorted coldly.

Because Ruokai Ancestor's words just now, opening his mouth to reveal someone else's secret treasure, was an extremely impolite behavior in the Cultivation World.

So Mi Cangyuan didn't hold back and said directly: "This Daoist really doesn't understand any rules at all; did your Master not teach you to respect others back then?"

Swish!

At this, everyone's gaze turned to Ruokai Ancestor again.

That's right, everyone was attracted by He Pingsheng's origin power just now, but now thinking carefully, this Ruokai Ancestor was also very impolite.

Ruokai Ancestor's face turned as gloomy as water.

The host of this Dao discussion meeting, the Nascent Soul Bei Ye Zi of the Zhongnan Immortal Sect, hurriedly came out to smooth things over: "Everyone, everyone... the occasion is different, so don't blame too much!"

"This is a trading meeting, hehehe... it doesn't matter if it's revealed!"

"Anyway, we are going to trade later!"

"I hope everyone won't hurt the harmony over these small matters!"

Since he said so, everyone naturally gave face.

Mi Cangyuan and Ruokai Ancestor both cupped their hands toward him.

This matter was temporarily put aside.

"Everyone..." Bei Ye Zi said, "This Nascent Soul Grand Meeting was invited by this old man; you are all prominent figures in Hongshi Commandery, so it's better to clarify some rules!"

"This time, this old man invited a total of twenty-three people; adding this old man, that makes twenty-four. Now, at least ten or so people have not arrived!"

"So the first rule is: before the official trading begins, it is forbidden for anyone to trade privately!"

"I hope everyone will abide by the rules; otherwise, in the future, various Dao discussion meetings in Hongshi Commandery will exclude the qualifications of those who violate the rules!"

To put it bluntly, private trading is not allowed.

Otherwise, future participation qualifications will be canceled.

People won't do anything to you; after all, you are an ancestor of a sect.

"Good!"

"No problem!"

Everyone assured Bei Ye Zi.

Bei Ye Zi said, "Good, good, good... then fellow Daoists, please take your seats together and enjoy dinner!"

"We cultivators usually drink the wind and eat the dew, not eating human fireworks; occasionally tasting this human delicacy is a different flavor!"

Everyone did not resist and sat down one by one to enjoy this human delicacy.

He Pingsheng also ate a bit.

To be honest, it was truly delicious.

But as a cultivator, He Pingsheng ate very little.

After the dinner ended, He Pingsheng returned directly to his small building.

This was an independent small building.

Anyway, there was nothing to do for the next three or four days, so He Pingsheng took out his array disk and, after some tinkering, set up two arrays outside the small building.

One was a Spirit-Prohibiting Array!

One was an Early-Warning Array.

Both were third-tier.

As for a defensive array?

That was unnecessary, because he believed that in this place, no one would dare to openly attack the small building where he lived.

But there are always some people who work in places others can't see, such as peeping with spiritual sense.

This had to be guarded against.

Now it was good; with the arrays set up, he naturally wasn't afraid of those harboring evil intentions coming to peep.

This way, even if he used the Treasure Gathering Basin to strengthen something, he didn't have to worry about others seeing it. ===== CHAPTER 373 =====
