I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 260 Cangyun Asks for Help (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Jiang Yi slept for a long time and felt very refreshed.

All the accumulated fatigue of forty-nine years, the taut nerves, and the weariness hidden deep in the bones were expelled as turbid air through the breathing techniques of the Sleeping Immortal Kung Fu.

Her skill in sleeping immortal techniques has improved considerably.

Ten days later, Jiang Yi was awakened by Hua Gu rubbing her face.

She half-closed her eyes, letting Hua Gu push her up to sit up by supporting her lower back. When she stretched, her joints made a crisp sound, like a rusty mechanism being oiled again.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yi felt refreshed throughout her body, experiencing an unprecedented sense of lightness, as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and even her soul felt clear and transparent.

At this moment, she finally truly and completely came back to life.

"Has everyone outside left, Hua Gu? Is the treasure hunt about to officially begin?"

Whoosh!

Hua Gu brought over a jade slip containing news from Flint City that she had recorded over the past few days. Her master had taught her the word "news."

The jade slip hovered in the air. As Jiang Yi got up and dressed, he sent out a strand of his divine sense to examine it.

Overall, nothing major happened.

The discussion surrounding her continues to escalate.

Master has already issued a joint statement with the Xuan Ying Sword Sect through the Immortal Alliance, giving the onlookers an explanation.

Hua Gu copied down the entire statement, which was quite lengthy. The gist of it was that she was indeed seriously injured and on the verge of death when she resisted the demons outside the Xuan Ying Sword Sect's mountain gate, and lost all her cultivation.

However, because the demon clan's sneak attack was deeply involved and involved a conspiracy by the Dream Immortal Sect, the Xuan Ying Sword Sect Master feared that she would be ambushed, so he sent her to the Cang Ling Sect to be cared for by True Monarch Dan Xi.

There was no explanation for why she switched to demon-controlling cultivation, why she became younger, or the fact that her fire spirit root was shattered. Her privacy was protected to the greatest extent possible, leaving the onlookers to speculate freely.

In short, her resurrection has been explained to the public, and she can now walk out with dignity and without any concealment, using her true identity.

"So the Golden Zhengyuan Secret Realm opens today. Golden Core cultivators can go in first, and Foundation Establishment cultivators can enter tomorrow."

Anyway, she was too lazy to go and watch. She had been to the Golden Zhengyuan Secret Realm many times before, so she might as well go tomorrow.

"And who did you ask for the list of Golden Core cultivators from various sects who entered the secret realm?"

Jiang Yi turned around and glanced at Hua Gu, who was making her bed. Hua Gu's cloud-like body stretched and transformed into the outline of a person. This was a new trick she had learned when teaching the little snow demon to transform.

Jiang Yi recognized Zhao Cangyun from the high ponytail, the messy hair on his forehead, and the two knife hilts sticking out from his waist.

"This junior brother is actually quite useful."

Some of the Golden Core cultivators on the list were her peers or older, and she knew quite a few of them.

On the Cangling Sect's side, it was True Person Luo Heng and True Person Yu Wei who went in, while on the Xuan Ying Sword Sect... Jiang Yi saw a name that gave her a headache.

"Why did you let Luo Qingsi in to join in the fun? Isn't that ridiculous? Can one person keep an eye on her?"

Jiang Yi shook her head and put down the jade slip. She went to deactivate the protective array inside the room so that sounds from outside could come in.

There were two communication talismans on the tea table. One of them had the master's seal on it, and the other was Shen Puning's, with a smiling face sticking out her tongue drawn on it.

First, check with your master. She said that the Dream Immortal Cult members lurking inside and outside Flint City have been basically located, and the Immortal Alliance will not allow them to enter the secret realm. She told her to search for treasure with peace of mind.

The top-grade cultivation technique awarded to the champion of the first Dao Asking Conference requires some time to prepare. Let her choose after she finds the treasure. In the meantime, let her think about what kind of magic weapon she wants Xia Yangming to refine for her. Think of the best and don't try to save Xia Yangming any money.

"As expected of you, Master. Let's go together."

The message talisman Shen Puning left was for her to come to her room after she woke up, to have a meal and chat, and to discuss how to meet up after entering the secret realm.

The teleportation mechanism in the Golden Zheng Plain Secret Realm is the same as that in the Xuandu Mountain Secret Realm; both involve random teleportation.

Jiang Yi's gaze darkened slightly. Originally, she had planned to act with Shen Puning and the others, but the kill order sent by Hua Luosha made her give up the idea.

The Golden Core cultivators of the nine great immortal sects are not necessarily all righteous good people; she had seen many of their shady dealings before.

Furthermore, there are so many unfamiliar Foundation Establishment cultivators; what if some members of the Dream Immortal Sect slipped through the net...?

It's safer for her to act alone.

If she encounters someone she can't handle, she has the Earthly Fiend Yellow Spring Pearl to escape, so saving her life is not a problem.

"I'll go to Pu Ning's room later and tell them in person, using some other excuse."

Jiang Yi changed into her usual light blue dress, and half of her hair was tied up with a crane feather silver hairpin. She pushed open the carved wooden window, and the hot wind from Flint City rushed in.

Jiang Yi squinted at the center of the square. The broken magical artifacts on the Hundred Refinements Stele reflected mottled golden light, and a jade scroll floated in the air, like a golden book left behind by an immortal.

Flowing cloud patterns meander between the three characters "问道榜" (Wen Dao Bang, a list of places to seek enlightenment), and on the huge blank scroll, six seal characters are engraved alone, their ink dripping.

Cangling Sect - Jiang Heying
ヽ(°▽°)ノhoo!

Flower Girl flew over, excitedly shaking her body and sending down large swaths of ice crystal snowflakes, as if to say, "Master is the best!"
Jiang Yi pulled Hua Gu into his arms and rubbed her, "That's right, I'm the best! Tomorrow we'll enter the secret realm. Besides focusing on searching for Kun Dao Palace, we also need to capture a few bird souls for Qing Mu Ding, and collect some ores for Zhen Shan and Duan Jin to cultivate the Xuan Huang Hua Sheng Jing. There's a lot to do. You should go back to You Xian Du to rest first."

Hua Gu floated in mid-air and moved her body, reaching into her body with her misty hand and pulling out a storage bag.

Inside were the demon seeds given by Hua Luosha. Jiang Yi had picked out the ones containing the Phantom Escape technique that day, spread them on the bed, and used her laziness to become inert. Hua Gu had just packed them into bags. "Thank you, Hua Gu."

*Whoosh!*

Hua Gu transformed her body into a three-tailed fox, turned around and faced Jiang Yi with her tail, perfectly mimicking Hong Li's angry expression.

Jiang Yi smiled helplessly, "I'll have a good talk with it, don't worry."

Hua Gu moved her body again, and then transformed into the shape of a sword.

"The Yaoling Sword was once my natal sword, and it will live with us from now on. It has just developed its own spirit, and its connection with my soul is still intact. I plan to put it into the great formation of Sword Tomb Mountain so that it can use the mountain to further stabilize its spirit. It will also be able to activate the 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Treasury Formation' and all the functions of the Sword Nourishing Gourd."

“I used ‘Hidden Edge Sword’ ahead of time this time, so I need to hide and nurture the sword again before I can break the seven-string seal in the Inheritance Hall. When I get the zither and sword in the Inheritance Hall in the future, I will exchange the Yaoling Sword from Sword Tomb Mountain. I am actually a little worried about my future Core Formation. I am afraid that the shattered fire spirit root will become a hidden danger. The Yaoling Sword may be able to help me.”

Hua Gu let out a long breath, her body looking much deflated.

It was a little jealous, but its intelligence was growing, and it had learned about Jiang Yi's past because of this incident, so it was not particularly averse to the Yaoling Sword.

Anyway, in terms of current ranking, it is number one, followed by number two Hong Li, number three Zhu Xin Jian, number four Duan Jin, number five Zhen Shan, and Yao Ling Jian can only be considered number six.

Finally, Hua Gu snuggled into Jiang Yi's arms and returned to the sword-nurturing gourd.

Jiang Yi was about to sit down and study the other demon species given by Hua Luosha to see if there were any that could be used when she suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"Senior Sister, are you awake? I have something I want to tell you."

Zhao Cangyun ignored Qi Tian, ​​who was sleeping by the door, and continued to knock on the door every day as usual.

He carried the things given to him by the elders of the underground demon race. After much thought, he decided to ask his senior sister for help and ask her to go with him to find the Xuanwu Heart Flame in the Kundao Palace.

There was no movement inside, which made Zhao Cangyun extremely irritable. He was even more annoyed to see Qi Tianheng sleeping at the door.

"Get up, get up. My senior sister has already left, you should leave too."

Qi Tian, ​​still half-asleep, wiped his mouth and asked, "Gone? When did you leave? Doesn't Senior use the main entrance?"

As they were talking, the door was pulled open, and Qi Tian's eyes widened. But just as he was about to get up, Zhao Cangyun pressed his head down and pushed him back down.

boom!
The door was closed, and Qi Tian was kept outside.

"Senior, please let me in! Senior, I just want to see you once!"

Inside the room, Zhao Cangyun unceremoniously activated the protective soundproof array, blocking out Qi Tian's noisy shouts from outside.

He scratched his messy hair, plopped down at the tea table, grabbed the teapot, and gulped down a few mouthfuls.

"Senior Sister, you haven't seen it these past two days, that group of people are blocking the door like mad dogs! The Xuan Ying Sword Sect is crying and begging to see you, and the others are trying to get close to you whenever they can."

Zhao Cangyun counted on his fingers.

"The most outrageous one is Feng Wuhen, who actually said he wanted to be your sword attendant! And Xiao Jue, he also joined in the fun and said he wanted to be your sword attendant. As a result, the two of them argued about it and went to the desert to duel. They're really sick!"

Jiang Yi chuckled lightly, saying nothing, only finding the group of young people endearingly sincere.

Seeing her like this, Zhao Cangyun scratched his head in annoyance. "Forget about this, Senior Sister, I have important business to attend to."

He suddenly lowered his voice and head, and like a thief, pulled out a palm-sized, jagged black tortoise shell from his pocket.

The tortoise shell was covered with mysterious patterns, and Zhao Cangyun placed it solemnly on the table.

"This is... a piece of Xuanwu armor given to me by an elder of mine. It is said that the heart of Xuanwu is suppressed under the Kundao Palace."

Jiang Yi was slightly taken aback. She hadn't expected Zhao Cangyun to bring out something related to Xuanwu, and she hadn't expected this silly boy to tell her so directly why he trusted her so much. Jiang Yi still didn't quite understand this matter.

Just because they are fellow disciples is probably not enough for Zhao Cangyun to trust them to this extent.

Zhao Cangyun didn't notice Jiang Yi's unusual behavior. He twitched his nose slightly and continued to ramble on while telling the truth.

"I have a special ability, which is that my nose is particularly good. I can smell some scents on this. If my elder is not lying to me, I may be able to find the location of Kundao Palace in Jinzhengyuan Secret Realm by following the scents on this. However, I need to get close enough to detect the same scent."

Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow, took the tortoise shell and examined it closely. The shell was cold to the touch, and she couldn't really see anything with her naked eyes and divine sense alone. If she threw it on the roadside, she would just treat it as a piece of trash.

Zhao Cangyun's Adam's apple bobbed, and he rarely showed a hint of unease. "I want to ask Senior Sister to help me find Kundao Palace. There's something I absolutely need inside. It's related to... well, it's very important!"

Jiang Yi handed the Xuanwu armor piece back to Zhao Cangyun, saying, "There are also things I want in this Kundao Palace. As your senior sister, I will naturally help you, but I won't let you have them."

Zhao Cangyun tentatively asked, "I want something related to fire. What about you, Senior Sister?"

"earth."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Cangyun grinned and said, "Then we won't have any conflict. I only want that one thing. Whatever else is there, it all belongs to Senior Sister. Anyone who dares to take it, I'll chop them up!"

"Okay, deal!"

"make a deal!"
