Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 467 Star Sea Alliance (Please Subscribe)

Inside the True Meaning Sect's spaceship.

A yellow-clad deacon got up from the ground, looking bewildered.

"I just fainted?"

My mind was a complete blank, like a paste.

"Luckily, no one saw it!"

He quickly returned to the cabin door to perform his guard duty.

At this moment, Shen Xuan, who had concealed his presence, calmly flew out of the True Meaning Sect's spaceship.

Just now, after he [disappeared] and [concealed his aura], he knocked out the yellow-robed steward of the True Meaning Sect guarding the door, and then [transformed] into his appearance to approach the cabin.

After using the skills [Insight] and [Hearing from All Directions], Shen Xuan could hear the conversation between Xu Ningtie and the other two clearly.

During the day, when conflicts occur.

Chen Huixue's gaze at him was all too obvious.

Xu Ningtie must have noticed something.

If a cultivator from the True Meaning Sect harbors ill intentions towards him...

Excuse me.

He had no choice but to strike first and deliver all the cultivators from the True Meaning Sect's spaceship.

Then, taking Chen Huixue with him, they fled far away to find another place to cultivate in seclusion.

Fortunately, Xu Ningtie still has some sense.

They prioritize their own interests above all else.

He didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble that would affect his completion of the sect's mission.

Shen Xuan then concealed himself and calmed his breath, awakened the yellow-robed steward, and drifted away.

Ultimately, he didn't want to commit any more killings.

Excessive killing can affect one's spiritual resolve and easily lead to demonic possession.

……

Shen Xuan revealed himself, gave his name, and entered the Chen family's territory again.

He went directly to Chen Huixue's courtyard.

"Master Shen, I'm sorry."

Like a child who had done something wrong, Chen Huixue rubbed the hem of her clothes and said in a low voice.

"Do you know where you went wrong?"

"I... I shouldn't have activated the Purple Jade Sword Bracelet."

"If I inform the clan elders, perhaps the matter can be handled better."

"It wouldn't have brought so much trouble to Master Shen and the Chen family."

Shen Xuan shook his head.

"Activating the Purple Jade Sword Bracelet, no problem."

“That person has ulterior motives. His intention is to kidnap you and offer you to a Master Zong of the Zhenyi Sect.”

"His lifespan is nearing its end, and he wants to use your innate ice spirit body as a furnace to prolong his life."

After hearing this, a blush spread across Chen Huixue's cheeks.

Ashamed and annoyed.

At her age, she naturally knew what a furnace or cauldron meant.

“I once heard a wise man say a few words. Listen carefully.”

"Yes, Master Shen."

"A poor family with a beautiful wife, no power but much wealth, weak but precocious—these are not good things."

"If you are poor but have a beautiful wife, lustful people will scheme against you. If you are powerless but wealthy, greedy people will frame you. If you are weak but precocious, evil people will plot against you."

"You possess a natural ice spirit body, and I helped you transform your marrow and condense your Xuanbing spirit seed, embarking on the path of an ice magic cultivator. In truth, this may not be a blessing."

"Originally, you could have lived an ordinary but peaceful life like the other fairy seedlings. Now, you are destined to walk a dangerous path full of thorns."

"Not everyone can overcome all obstacles and reach the other side. Most people will fall among the thorns."

What happened during the day was just the beginning.

"From now on, whatever you do, don't rely on me; you can only rely on yourself."

"Did you understand what I said?"

Chen Huixue bowed deeply in respect.

"Yes, Huixue understands. In the future, no matter what happens, Huixue will not involve Master Shen."

Shen Xuan nodded.

"From now on, I will keep a low profile, focus on my spiritual practice, and avoid showing my face in public."

After saying that, Shen Xuan turned and left.

He couldn't let Chen Huixue develop a dependency.

Everyone must face the various difficulties in life independently.

……

Behind Chenjia Mountain, beside the Hundred-Foot Waterfall.

The patriarch of the Chen family gazed thoughtfully at the cascading waterfall.

Beside him, the head of the Chen family stood silently.

"The matter of integrating surrounding small and medium-sized cultivation forces, recruiting independent cultivators, and establishing the Chen Family Expeditionary Force should be carried out as soon as possible."

The Chen family patriarch said calmly.

"Yes, old man."

"You will lead the team yourself. Take those who need to be dealt with and those who are not suitable to stay with you. I will take care of things in the clan, so there is no need to worry."

"Ancestor, that girl Chen Huixue?"

"It's alright. Xu Ningtie is a smart man. What is a mere Qi Refining disciple compared to his Great Dao?"

The Chen family patriarch smiled and said, "Besides, isn't there Master Shen, the talisman master, standing in front of us?"

"That's exactly what I'm talking about. This Master Shen is no ordinary person."

"Of course it's not simple."

The Chen family patriarch sighed.

"That girl Ling'er has gotten involved with him?"

The head of the Chen family replied, "Yes."

"Talk to Zheng Ziyi. Tell him what I mean and that he should take Ling'er back to the Mu family."

"Master Mu, it's almost time for you to emerge from seclusion."

"Okay! I will talk to Zheng Ziyi about this as soon as possible."

"As for Master Shen Fu."

The Chen family patriarch paused for a moment.

He seemed to be thinking about something.

After a long silence, he said quietly, "This person is no ordinary person. If I am not mistaken, this person is very likely a potential Core Formation seed from the Song Kingdom's Grandmaster."

The head of the Chen family's eyes lit up.

"Does the Ancestor mean that this person is here to plan for Core Formation? Then wouldn't he be..."

After hesitating for a moment, the Chen family head still spoke up: "Isn't he a True Person of a sect?"

The Chen family patriarch glanced at the Chen family head.

"He is a sect master from the Song Kingdom, what does that have to do with you?"

The head of the Chen family said awkwardly, "He is, after all, a guest of our Chen family, so there should be some mutual respect."

"Wait until he forms his core before trying to build a relationship! Out of ten potential core-forming seeds, it would be good if three of them actually form a core. And most of them would only be fake cores!"

That being said.

Even the head of the Chen family could hear the sourness in the old patriarch's words.

half an hour.

The Chen family patriarch made a decision: "Let's treat him well! We'll see what happens in the future. In short, our Chen family will not mistreat him."

"Yes, Ancestor is wise. Zhifang thinks so too."

After the Chen family head left.

The patriarch of the Chen family waved his sleeve.

The hundred-foot waterfall, cascading down, came to a complete stop.

It was as if it were being lifted up by something.

The patriarch of the Chen family once again slammed his sleeves down.

The waterfall suddenly burst open, and water splashed in all directions.

"The waterfall can never flow backwards. I, too, have grown old!"

The Chen family patriarch, looking rather listless, walked slowly toward his Taoist temple, hands clasped behind his back, like an old man in the secular world.

……

a few days later.

Shen Xuan entered Master Zheng's cave.

"Tea, please."

Master Zheng Dan personally poured tea for Shen Xuan.

This made Shen Xuan feel flattered and surprised.

"Mr. Zheng, please speak."

Zheng Danshi smiled.

I asked some questions about alchemy.

Shen Xuan answered every question. He didn't value the inheritance of cultivation techniques as much as sects and aristocratic families.

Zheng Ziyi is a good person.

Although his help was of no use to Shen Xuan.

However, Shen Xuan still understood his intentions.

Everyone is on Spring Breeze Island.

Some things cannot be hidden from Master Zheng Dan.

The two discussed alchemy techniques for half an hour.

Master Zheng sighed deeply: "Hearing your words is worth more than reading books for ten years!"

Then, Master Zheng stood up and bowed to Shen Xuan with clasped hands.

Shen Xuan quickly stood up to return the greeting.

At this moment, Master Zheng Dan verified his conjecture.

The alchemy master Shen Fushi on the other side was far superior to his own.

The method of refining elixirs using multiple nozzles is not accidental.

It was originally the other party who intentionally taught it.

"I will be going out in three days. When I return, I will ask Master Shen for further guidance."

"Of course. If you have any questions, Elder Zheng, I will answer them to the best of my knowledge."

Master Zheng said solemnly, "I will leave the island at Chenshi (7-9 AM) three days from now."

"Escort Mu Ling'er back to the Mu family of the True Meaning Sect."

Upon hearing this, Shen Xuan was slightly taken aback.

He had considered that if war came, Mu Ling'er would have to return to the Mu family.

But I never expected that day would come so soon.

……

Three days later.

Spring Breeze Island, atop the highest mountain range.

Chenshi.

The sun rises.

The clouds floated like drifting catkins.

Mu Ling'er was not masked, and looked down at the waist of a mountain range.

That is Shen Xuan's cave dwelling.

The familiar figure never appeared.

Mu Ling'er looked as if she had lost something very important.

A wave of sorrow washed over me.

Behind him, Master Zheng remained silent.

The rising sun shone with boundless light.

In the sunlight, Mu Ling'er's figure was graceful and her pretty face was stunningly beautiful.

Another incense stick burned.

The agreed time has long since passed.

Mu Ling'er reluctantly turned around and stepped into Master Zheng's flying boat.

"Let's go, Mr. Zheng."

"it is good!"

Master Zheng propelled the flying boat, and it soon flew into the clouds.

"Wait a minute. Mr. Zheng, stop for a moment."

Deep within the clouds and mist, Mu Ling'er sensed something.

He turned around and stared intently.

A familiar figure emerged from the void, standing near where she had been, smiling and waving in the direction of the flying boat.

There was no trace of fear or trepidation left on them.

Calm and composed, confident and refined.

"Is this Shen Lang's true face?"

Mu Ling'er thought to herself quietly.

So, he had been there all along.

However, he remained unaware of his presence while concealing himself.

Mu Ling'er stared blankly for a while.

"Let's go."

Mu Ling'er resolutely turned around and said.

Deep affection but shallow fate; life is like a fleeting spring dream.

Only you know the true nature of human relationships.

Mu Ling'er forced herself to suppress her excitement.

Today we part ways, and perhaps we will never meet again in this lifetime.

That person's face was forever etched in my mind.

Unforgettable.

The dawn blazed, turning the nearby clouds crimson.

"It's so beautiful!"

Mu Ling'er looked at the magnificent sunrise and sighed softly.

Tears streamed down her face silently.

……

After seeing Mu Ling'er off.

Shen Xuan arrived at Mu Ling'er's cave.

The female sea dragon, dressed as a man, was full of vigor and commanded the two evil cultivators, Blood Bone Duo, to move their personal belongings from the spaceship.

She wants to move in.

Seeing Shen Xuan approach, the Sea Dragon Girl came to greet him.

"How are you? Is Mu Ling'er alright?"

Shen Xuan glanced sideways at the Sea Dragon Girl.

"Why do I get the feeling that you're happy about Fairy Mu leaving the island?"

Outside, Shen Xuan respectfully addressed Mu Ling'er as Fairy Mu.

"That's an understatement! Mu Ling'er will return to the Mu family sooner or later."

"She can't stay in this poor, desolate place like ours forever!"

Shen Xuan said irritably, "So, you took over Fairy Mu's cave right after she left? Did you get the Chen family's permission?"

"Does the Chen family dare to disagree?"

The Sea Dragon Girl said coldly, "Master Shen, the situation has changed. An alliance has been formed throughout the Starry Sea."

“My grandfather is the leader of the alliance, while the head of the Chen family is only the deputy leader.”

"Strictly speaking, the Chen family were my grandfather's subordinates!"

That's right.

Shen Xuan was speechless for a moment.

Although the Chen family would never obey the Dragon King's orders.

On the surface, however, the Starry Sea has been integrated into a medium-sized cultivation force.

The main force is the Sea Dragon King of Dragon King Island, with the Wei family of Lion King Island, the Qiu family of Autumn Moon Island, and the Chen family of Divine Dragon Island as secondary forces.

All cultivators in the entire Starry Sea, whether they are from clans or are independent cultivators living there, are in his camp.

"If you move here, what about Dragon King Island?"

"Grandpa arranged for his trusted confidants to be stationed on the island."

The Sea Dragon Girl glared at him: "Master Shen, you don't welcome me to Spring Breeze Island?"

"welcome."

Shen Xuan said weakly.

Originally, I thought that after Master Zheng and Mu Ling'er left...

He was the only Foundation Establishment cultivator left on Spring Breeze Island.

He also wanted to make a proper plan to rebuild Spring Breeze Island.

In retrospect, it seems unnecessary to go to such lengths.

With the arrival of the Sea Dragon Girl, Spring Breeze Island will never be peaceful again.

Shen Xuan had just returned to his cave.

He then received a message talisman from the Chen family head.

With the consent of the Chen family patriarch, Chen Huixue moved to live on Spring Breeze Island.

"Three women make a drama, that's great."

Mu Ling'er just left.

Sea Dragon Girl and Chen Huixue have arrived at Spring Breeze Island again.

In addition, there was the maid Bai Xiaomeng.

Shen Xuan wondered if his luck had been skewed by the influence of "good fortune" and "avoiding misfortune."

He secretly prayed that the war between the sects of Yan and Song would not spread to the Starry Sea.
