Chapter 212 Spiritual Vortex
Fan Chen said, "That's just how Zi Yue is. Don't mind her. Zi Yue, quickly move aside so the guest can cultivate!"

Lin Zhao said, "Don't reveal your identity to anyone else, and also to little girl Ziyue. Your identity as a descendant of the Thousand Autumn Flower will attract a lot of attention. But how did you know I possess the Phoenix Destiny?"

Zi Yue nodded: "Don't worry, don't worry, only his parents and the three of us know that his father is Qian Qiuhua. Because of my inheritance, I can sense the Phoenix Luck on you."

She was a companion spirit born in the secret realm. Some of her inheritances were given to her by the clam clan, but others were given to her by the blue swan bird.

For example, the identification and trust of Gu Huanghuangyun.

As she opened the clam shell to its maximum size for Lin Zhao, she asked, "And you're an alchemist too, right? I can smell the medicinal fragrance on you."

Lin Zhao smiled wryly: "You know I'm an alchemist, yet you still dare to mention Fan Chen's identity. Even if I were the Ancient Phoenix's chosen one, I wouldn't trust you like that."

Zi Yue replied crisply, "Because I can still sense Honghu's aura. My inheritance tells me that anyone Honghu trusts can definitely be trusted. So I want to ask you to refine a pill to conceal Achen's aura. Achen always wants to leave the secret realm, but if he leaves here, his aura will be unprotected and will be directly released, which will definitely attract a lot of bad people."

Fan Chen was surprised that Zi Yue, who was so young, could care so much. After a moment of silence, he said, "At worst, I just won't go out."

He had never left the secret realm. Even though he knew from his mother and Ziyue that his identity could not be revealed to others, he did not feel any danger.

Even today, Ziyue and Lin Zhao's conversation made him vaguely feel that leaving this secret realm that gave birth to and bound their branch of merfolk might not be entirely beneficial.

"Agree to their request," said Grandma Honghu.

Lin Zhao had never seen her master react this way before, and immediately nodded.

Lin Zhao said, "Once I have completed my cultivation, I will give you a Qi Condensation Pill, so that you can control all the energy within your body."

Of course, Lin Zhao himself was not capable of refining this pill; it was Granny Honghu who planned to refine it based on the available materials.

Zi Yue immediately thanked him, while Fan Chen was somewhat embarrassed: "But I have nothing to give you."

The valuable things he had were given to him by Lin Zhao.

Lin Zhao said, "I have only one request: if you can leave the secret realm, follow me before you ascend."

Of course, this was also what Grandma Honghu requested.

Zi Yue clapped her hands: "That's right! How come I didn't think of that! Ah Chen, you can just sign a master-servant contract with Gu Huangyun!"

Upon hearing the words "master-servant contract," Fan Chen's face immediately darkened: "Whose companion spirit beast are you? You're always siding with outsiders!"

Even a fool could tell that, given Zi Yue's attitude, he couldn't possibly be the master in this contract!
Zi Yue snorted: "Who told you to be poor and vain, pretending to be rich even when you're broke, weak and lazy, stupid and playful? If it weren't for me, you, the young master of the Merfolk who was expelled from the Secret Realm, would have been dead long ago. Where would you find such a beautiful lake to live so comfortably? If you had signed an equal contract or become the master of the Ancient Phoenix, you would have ruined her just like you ruined me!"

Fan Chen held his breath in his throat: "How could I be that bad? The reason they drove me away was simply because my father was unlucky and my mother was dead."

"Can you honestly say that you never got into fights with others because of pearls?"

"Why can't I have it if they all do?"

"Do your parents contribute to the clan?"

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Lin Zhao quickly stopped them: "If Fellow Daoist Fan agrees, you can come with Ziyue and follow me. There's no need to sign a contract."

Fan Chen rubbed his nose and snorted, "It's not that I don't want to sign a master-servant contract with you, but I'm not an adult yet, and signing a contract now would have too much of an impact on me."

Zi Yue couldn't stand his pretentious behavior. He had already fallen on hard times, yet he still wanted to maintain a respectable image: "You're underage because you're malnourished. Why would anyone take care of you if you don't sign a contract? Look at you, the only useful thing about you is your face and your body. Do you want to sell your body instead of your body?"

Lin Zhao seemed to understand why Fan Chen wanted clothes as payment.

But she still covered the mouth of the little clam spirit, who was being too merciless, with a headache: "I heard that spirit beasts need to reach level seven to transform into human form. You already have the Nascent Soul cultivation?" Zi Yue said: "No, it's because A-Chen fed me his blood that I was able to become like this. I'm only level four now."

Lin Zhao quickly tried to smooth things over for Fan Chen: "Doesn't that mean he treats you very well?"

Zi Yue said, "I was beaten half to death because I was protecting him."

Lin Zhao: "..."

Fan Chen said, "Hurry up and pack your things. I have a feeling that my coming of age is just around the corner! Let's find a place to wait for my coming of age, and let Miss Lin cultivate here!"

If they stayed any longer, Ziyue would tell Lin Zhao even the color of his underwear.

After those two clowns left, Lin Zhao plopped down in the clam shell and asked, "Teacher, why did you let him come with me?"

Lin Zhao is not a cultivator who likes having too many people around her, especially since she has already formed a contract with Jin Ya.

"Because the effects of the Thousand Autumn Flower do not necessarily require ingestion to be effective, simply being around the Thousand Autumn Flower and feeling its aura can also be beneficial. Since you possess good fortune, this nourishment will be even more effective."

Lin Zhao understood: "I'll ask him again when he comes of age."

If someone doesn't want it, you can't force them to.

After saying that, Lin Zhao sat down and began his cultivation.

Feeling the abundant spiritual energy in the lake water continuously flowing into the purple vortex in his palm, Lin Zhao couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.

However, the vortex absorbed the energy for three whole days without showing any signs of saturation, which puzzled Lin Zhao.

She sensed the amount of spiritual energy within her vortex and clicked her tongue.

"Two hundred streams of spiritual energy?" Granny Honghu couldn't help but float out after hearing the number Lin Zhao reported to her. She became interested in the vortex in Lin Zhao's hand that was constantly absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.

"I'd like to see just how high your vortex can go."

As she spoke, Granny Honghu raised her hand, and with a wave of her silver pen, she wrote out one spirit seal after another, which landed around Lin Zhao, forming an array.

Once the formation was complete, it surrounded Lin Zhao, emitting a faint purple light, making the location where Lin Zhao was located absorb spiritual energy dozens of times faster than before.

With such a vast supply of spiritual energy, the spiritual energy foundation of the vortex in Lin Zhao's palm visibly increased gradually, and the vortex even grew larger.

As Lin Zhao activated the Phoenix Vein Technique, he looked at the vortex and noticed that as his size increased, a faint phantom of a swan was moving within it.

Lin Zhao stared at it, momentarily stunned, unsure of what it was.

Fortunately, Granny Honghu clearly knew: "Spiritual Vortex?"

Lin Zhao asked, "Is this spiritual energy vortex called the Spiritual Aspect Vortex?"

Grandma Honghu nodded: "Yes, it's been a long time since we've seen such a spiritual energy vortex. Only a very few geniuses can make the vortex appear during the Fusion stage. Each of these spiritual energy vortexes has at least three hundred streams of spiritual energy!"

Lin Zhao took a deep breath. Did this mean that some cultivators at the early stages of the Fusion Realm, possessing spiritual vortexes, could defeat ordinary cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Fusion Realm?!

Indeed, on the path of cultivation, there are some things that cannot be ignored.

Grandma Honghu laughed heartily: "Come, little girl, let your teacher see how much spiritual energy your spiritual vortex can store?"
