The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 219 Five Continents Alliance
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

After investigation by Chen Jinshu and others, it was confirmed that Chai Junhao, the butcher's son, was indeed seeing his master's Tribulation Transcending Body, Liu Huameng, for the first time.

Only then did they feel relieved.

Moreover, their investigation revealed that the butcher's son had a good reputation among many residents of the town and often helped the poor people in the town during the famine years.

Although this man was the son of a butcher, apart from his physical strength which he inherited from his father, his personality and appearance were completely different from his father's.

The most obvious difference is that this butcher's son takes his studies very seriously and often shows his articles to Liu Huameng. Their relationship gradually deepens as they spend time together.

"This is most likely Master's tribulation of love, but I wonder how long it will last." Chen Jinshu looked at the two people who were having a secret meeting in the corner of the brothel's backyard and began to speculate on how long Master's tribulation of love would last.

She had a vague feeling that her master's tribulation of love was not as smooth as she had imagined, and that he might overcome the tribulation while in grief.

"Master will be of marriageable age in two years. We'll know the result within two years," Zheng Shaosi said calmly.

They have lingered here for too long and must return to their sect as soon as possible within five years.

"Senior Brother! Has something big happened at the sect?" Xie Mofeng asked with curiosity.

"The sect leader sent me a message. He said the Five Continents Alliance is about to begin." Zheng Shaosi said, his eyes filled with anticipation, but even more so with melancholy.

He had participated in it twenty or thirty years ago, but at that time his cultivation level was only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, so he could only attend the Foundation Establishment cultivators' gathering and missed many precious resources.

Every reward at the Golden Core Gathering is a rare treasure in the world. Obtaining just one of them would be a meteoric rise in one's cultivation journey.

“The junior sisters don’t know about the Five Continents Alliance yet. Senior Brother, please tell us about it!” Huai Jingyi said with a faint smile, looking at Chen Jinshu and the others who seemed a little confused.

"Alas. When I attended the Five Continents Alliance, my master had just taken my fourth junior brother as his disciple. It's perfectly normal that you didn't know!"

"This Five Continents Alliance is a grand event that sects at the Golden Core stage or above from the five continents of the cultivation world are allowed to participate in. The organizers are the five major sects from the five continents. Our Xuanming Sect only ranked fifth. The Chiyan Sect, which split off last time, didn't even rank in the top five. This shows how many powerful sects are behind us."

"The Xuanming Sect can only be considered 'not bad' at best."

"The event will be held in Huangsha Prefecture of the Holy Sword Sect. The Holy Sword Sect is the strongest sect in the entire cultivation world. It has countless sword cultivators with extraordinary strength, and even a Tribulation Crossing Dao Lord who has not yet ascended. However, it is said that this Tribulation Crossing Dao Lord will ascend soon. The exact time is unknown."

"It is precisely because of this Tribulation Transcending Dao Lord that the Holy Sword Sect has become one of the most powerful sects in the entire cultivation world, and no other sect dares to offend it. Therefore, it is the venue for this grand event."

"The Golden Core pills that you are lacking are not particularly scarce in Huangsha Prefecture. As long as you have the strength, you can acquire them. Of course, the safest option is to purchase them with money. However, the price will be a bit painful."

"The Five Continents Alliance is divided into two venues: Foundation Establishment and Golden Core. The rewards for the two venues are also different. The rewards for the Golden Core venue can reach the Nascent Soul level, which even Nascent Soul cultivators would covet. Therefore, this trip will require several Nascent Soul True Monarchs to escort us."

……

Zheng Shaosi gave a brief account of the Five Continents Alliance, which made Chen Jinshu and the others who were listening feel longing.

This is a rare opportunity to train, receive rewards, and even meet many outstanding talents.

However, what Chen Jinshu wanted was not the reward for Foundation Establishment cultivators. She was already close to Golden Core, and what she should be competing in was the Golden Core arena.

"It seems I need to take advantage of this time to quickly raise my cultivation level to the Golden Core stage."

Unfortunately, the spiritual veins in this area are thin, making it very difficult for her to break through to the Golden Core stage. She would need a sufficiently powerful underground spiritual vein to provide massive spiritual energy support in order to break through in one fell swoop.

She had been honing her cultivation during this time, waiting only to return to the sect so she could attempt a breakthrough. However, what her senior brother said today about the Five Continents Alliance made her want to raise her cultivation to the Golden Core stage before the alliance began.

By the time they completed their mission of protecting their master during his tribulation, the time for the Five Continents Alliance to begin was fast approaching.

Looking at Chen Jinshu's hesitant expression, the others could easily guess what she was thinking.

These people all possessed items given to them by their master for forming their cores. In principle, they could form their cores at any time, but since their master was undergoing tribulation, they dared not take the risk.

“Junior sister! If you wish to form your core, then go ahead. Leave Master here to us. Besides, the situation here doesn't require so many people,” Bu Yuanxiang said after glancing at Chen Jinshu.

"Thank you, Senior Sister. The matter of Master's tribulation is still undecided. How can I possibly focus on my own tribulation?"

"Sigh, junior sister, why are you doing this?"

"My senior brothers and sisters also possess Core Formation spiritual items, how can I be any different? There's no need to discuss this!"

……

A month later, while Chen Jinshu was still cultivating in a cave not far away, an unexpected situation arose with their master.

"When Master's Transcending Tribulation Body, Liu Huameng, was secretly meeting with Chai Junhao, she was caught by the matrons of a brothel. They were even brought before everyone and impeached on the spot."

"Junior sister! It seems that Master's tribulation is about to be completed ahead of schedule." Huai Jingyi looked at the scene in front of him, which was conjured by the water mirror, showing Liu Huameng and the butcher's son tied up in the center.

A large group of brothel maids and young ladies surrounded them, pointing and whispering about Liu Huameng and her companion.

The mother, who had the highest hopes for Liu Huameng, was furious. She kept scolding Liu Huameng for being heartless. She had carefully nurtured Liu Huameng, just so that she could auction off Liu Huameng's first night for a higher price, thus making up for all her years of hard work.

However, Liu Huameng's secret affair with another man completely shattered her dream, rendering it worthless.

"Won't Master be beaten to death by them?"

"No! Things that happen in brothels are generally not spread. Of course, if you want to sell Liu Huameng's first night for a high price, then there's no chance."

"I'm talking about Chai Junhao. As long as he's dead..." Chen Jinshu looked at the two unfortunate people, unsure of what to say.

"Let's wait and see. Master might be able to successfully transcend the tribulation ahead of schedule because of this!" Huai Jingyi kept everyone in suspense.

-

"You shameless bastard, you're so young and you already know how to cheat on someone!" Le Ji's mother said angrily.

"Mom, I was wrong. It was my fault. Please let Chai Jun go." Liu Huameng dragged her knees to her mother and wept bitterly.

*Slap!* Mom slapped Liu Huameng across the face.

"You think you can leave our Flower Moon Pavilion after you've come? Don't try to pretend to be innocent once you're in a brothel!"

"You few go and tell the butcher to prepare money to ransom their good son!"

Upon hearing this, Chai Junhao's eyes showed a hint of fear, but his mouth was sealed shut, preventing him from making a sound.
