Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 705: Five Qi Returning to Origin Sword Canon
Jiang Xueting was shocked and said quickly: "Fellow Daoist Ning, this is too valuable."

After all, the value of a complete third-level monster's body is extremely high.

It was unknown how long it would take for their small business to earn so many spirit stones.

Ningfa smiled and shook his head, indicating that she didn't need to say anything more, then nodded at everyone and returned to his room, and Heiyu followed him closely.

In fact, for Ning Fa, the appearance of this third-level monster was just in time.

He has always been clear about gratitude and resentment. Helping Jiang Xueting at this time can be regarded as repaying Jiang Xueting for saving his life.

Offering this third-level monster's body was also a way to repay Jiang Xueting for the two healing pills she had given him.

He had already noticed that Jiang Xueting seemed to want to recruit him.

But his time is precious now and he cannot waste it here.

In this way, he would be able to leave with more peace of mind.

The rest of the journey was relatively smooth, and we did not encounter any attacks from powerful monsters.

Twenty days later, a large island finally appeared in front of them.

A burst of cheers came from the boat, and it was obvious that they had finally arrived at their destination - Xuemei Island, which was also the headquarters of Xuemei Trading Company.

From the conversations between Ning Fa and Jiang Xueting these days, we learned that Jiang Xueting was born into a foundation-building family, the Jiang family.

There are a total of three foundation-building cultivators in the clan. The dark-faced man in the early stage of foundation-building on the boat is her second uncle Jiang Yong.

This Xuemei Island is the ancestral home of their family. It is a second-level island and belongs to Jinlan Island, a third-level island in the Jinchuan Islands.

The Xuemei Trading Company was founded by their family, and they usually travel between several surrounding large islands to do business.

Generally speaking, the routes they choose are relatively safe, and third-level monsters rarely appear.

But this time they were unlucky. If they hadn't encountered Ningfa, they would probably have been wiped out.

In the vast Jinchuan Islands, there are countless small families like theirs that are destroyed every year due to such accidents.

The ship approached the port, where hundreds of people had already gathered. Most of them were strong mortals, and their faces were filled with excitement.

Under the command of some managers, these people boarded the ship and carried the goods efficiently.

The third-level monster had already been decomposed into various spiritual materials and put into the storage bag by the Jiang family cultivators.

Ning Fa flew towards the island accompanied by Jiang Xueting and Jiang Yong.

Soon they arrived at a mountain over a thousand feet high in the center of the island. The place was filled with spiritual energy and was where the core disciples of the Jiang family lived.

Jiang Xueting brought Ning Fa to an elegant pavilion.

After the two of them sat down, Jiang Xueting didn't speak for a while, as if she was considering her words.

Ning Fa thought to himself that it was coming.

Sure enough, the girl smiled softly. Her skin was as white as snow and her beautiful face looked even more like a blooming flower when she smiled.

She said, "Fellow Daoist Ning, since you have come here by chance and have no one to rely on, why don't you stay in my Jiang family now?"

Hearing this, Ning Fa smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, you may as well speak frankly."

Jiang Xueting said solemnly: "On behalf of the Jiang family, I would like to invite Daoist Ning to serve as our Jiang family's guest elder. Considering that Daoist Ning has a third-level puppet, our Jiang family will regard Daoist Ning as a Jindan realm offering, and can give Daoist Ning 10,000 spirit stones as salary every year."

Ning Fa's expression remained unchanged, and he thought to himself that this was the case.

At this time Jiang Xueting took a deep breath and continued: "In addition, our Jiang family is willing to give 20% of the annual profit to fellow Taoist."

After hearing this, Ning Fa was really surprised.

Jiang Xueting is really courageous. Although he may not care much about this 20% of income, it should be of great significance to a foundation-building family like theirs, and she is willing to give it out directly.

Obviously, this woman felt that if Ning Faken agreed, their company would earn a lot more spirit stones every year than before, so when you calculate it this way, it is still very worthwhile.

When Jiang Xueting saw that Ning Fa didn't react much, she gritted her teeth and said, "If you are not satisfied, we can give you 30% of the income."

Ning Fa smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, please don't misunderstand me. This is not a matter of spirit stones at all.

You should also know that I am deeply injured now, so I just want to find a place with high-level spiritual veins to heal my injuries.

After my injury heals, I will try to figure out how to return to Qianbo Sea where I was before.

So forget about being a worshiper."

If the Jiang family had a third-level spiritual vein, he would consider agreeing.

But just now he had a rough sense and found that this Xuemei Island only barely possessed a second-level mid-quality spiritual vein, which was far from what he required.

In fact, his need for high-level spirit veins, in addition to his own recovery and healing, was also for his Nine-Revolution Thunder Lotus.

Originally, this lotus had his main golden elixir to warm it, so it would be fine for the time being.

But now his golden elixir has been dissolved by him, his realm has fallen, and the magic power in his body is no longer enough to continue to nurture the lotus.

Therefore, he urgently needs to find a high-level spiritual vein to plant this lotus. As for the next target, Ning Fa now has a preliminary plan, which is Jinchang Island, the main island of the Jinchuan Islands.

This island possesses a fourth-tier spiritual vein and the most prosperous market town in the entire archipelago. He should be able to find the spiritual vein he needs, as well as some other spiritual material resources.

So Ningfa has already planned to head to Jinchang Island as the next step.

Seeing Ning Fa's direct refusal, Jiang Xueting first showed a trace of disappointment and regret, then smiled bitterly and said:
"In fact, I had already anticipated that you would refuse before I asked, but I still tried to ask with a fluke mentality."

After that, she looked thoughtful again, and then asked, "I wonder if you plan to go to Jinchang Island?"

Ning Fa thought to himself that this girl was indeed a kind-hearted lady, and he did not hide it and nodded.

Hearing this, the woman smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "If that's the case, I wonder if Brother Daoist Ning can help me with a favor.

In fact, our Jiang family started preparing goods for a trip to Jinchang Island several years ago.

However, the journey is long, and there are not only sea monsters along the way, but also the possibility of encountering extremely vicious robbers, so they have not set out yet.

We had originally planned to hire a few more Foundation Establishment cultivators before setting off again, but now that Fellow Daoist Ning is also heading to Jinchang Island, I wonder if he could go with us?

Of course, we won't let you do it for nothing. We will offer you 10,000 Spiritual Stones as a reward. What do you think?"

After saying that, Jiang Xueting stared at Ning Fa with her beautiful eyes, full of nervousness.

Ning Fa only hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's just a piece of cake, so there's naturally no problem. As for the reward, Brother Jiang, there's no need to mention it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Xueting's pretty face was filled with joy.

After the two chatted for a few more sentences, Jiang Xueting stood up and said goodbye at the right time.

Ning Fa pondered for a moment, then casually cast a soundproofing shield. He flipped his right hand and a piece of silvery paper appeared in his hand.

This was exactly the Silver Palace Heavenly Book that he had obtained after helping Ning Daozhen suppress the ancient demon in the Moyang Mountains.

Before this, Ning Fa used the method of making the Ganglei Talisman to trace back to the source of the Duyuan Heavenly Book and obtained another page of the Yinque Heavenly Book called the Lingxu Talisman Sutra.

He had always hoped to decipher the special silver seal characters of the Yinque Heavenly Book by comparing the two.

After so many years, he has made considerable progress, but he is still missing the finishing touch.

However, after learning the local language and writing of Yuhenghai these days, he actually gained a lot of inspiration, and the last obstacle of the silver seal script was broken through by him unknowingly.

Therefore, he now knew all the contents of the Lingxu Talisman Scripture and another page of the Yinque Heavenly Book.

Among them, the Lingxu Fujing is indeed a classic book specifically for making talismans, and its content can be said to be profound and extensive.

Even with Ning Fa's current level, a cursory glance at it made him feel it was obscure and difficult, like reading a heavenly book.

Moreover, the Lingxu Talisman Sutra does include a lot of other talismans attached. For example, in addition to the Ganglei Talisman, there are also the Hualing Talisman, the Shangqing Talisman, the Ziying Talisman, the Liuding Tianjia Talisman, the Taiqing Wulei Talisman, the Qingdi Rebirth Talisman, and so on.

These talismans are basically the same as the Ganglei Talisman, at least quasi-fourth-level or even fourth-level talismans, with incredibly powerful power.

However, Ning Fa couldn't help showing regret after just a cursory glance, because the spiritual materials required for most of the talismans recorded here were even more precious than that of the Ganglei Talisman.

From what he understood, many of these spiritual materials had long been extinct, so it would be difficult for him to refine these talismans.

Of course, he has now come to the completely unfamiliar Jiulonghai cultivation world, and perhaps some of the materials he needs can be found here.

Compared with the Lingxu Talisman Scripture, the other page of the Yinque Heavenly Book gave Ning Fa a bigger surprise.

What is recorded here is a cultivation method called [Five Qi Return to Origin Sword Canon].

As the name suggests, this is a sword technique.

Ning Fa took a quick look and knew that this technique was extraordinary. Its depth and power far surpassed some of the sword techniques he had come across before.

This sword technique emphasizes the mutual promotion and restraint of the Five Elements, and is divided into the Five Elements Sword Qi: the Golden Sword·Pojun, the Wooden Sword·Changsheng, the Water Sword·Hanyuan, the Fire Sword·Jinjie, and the Earth Sword·Zhenyue, each with its own extraordinary magical powers.

Since most of the skills and supernatural powers cultivated by those who practice Taoism are related to the five elements, it can be said that they are all restrained by this kind of swordsmanship.

Once one has cultivated to a high level, one will be able to unleash a powerful sword ability called the [Heaven-Sword Formation].

Its power was so great that even Ning Fa felt that the description above was an exaggeration.

However, although this sword technique is powerful, the threshold for practicing it is also very high.

First of all, one must be at least a Jindan cultivator, and secondly, one must have all five spiritual roots. Only when these two conditions are met can one practice.

The first condition is fine, but the second condition is a bit exaggerated.

After all, those who have all five spiritual roots are recognized as useless spiritual roots. Although they are qualified to practice, it will be difficult for them to break through to the middle stage of Qi training throughout their lifetime, let alone the stage of forming a pill.

But Ning Fa's heart beat fast when he saw it.

Because this technique requires the five spiritual roots, it is actually because it uses the five elements sword technique, and the power of the five elements is indispensable.

He has a five-element thunder body and possesses the five-element divine thunder, and he also possesses the power of the five elements, so he should be able to practice this technique.
