Mortal: Joining the Star Palace at the Start

About three days have passed.

Hearing the commotion outside the cave, Ji Qing, who was refining pills, immediately stopped.

Is someone arriving?

With this question in mind, Ji Qing pushed open the door and went out.

Outside the door.

A man in white, with a somewhat restrained expression and several wounds on his body, stood there respectfully.

Seeing this, Ji Qing was puzzled and asked:

"What are you doing here...?"

"Reporting to Young Master, I have spotted Han Li."

However, that fellow was far too cunning, and my subordinates were incompetent, allowing him to escape.

Have they found Han Li?

Ji Qing was somewhat surprised.

To be honest, he originally had no hope for this.

But the reality is quite the opposite.

These guys not only found Han Li, but it seems they even fought with him.

"Are you alright?"

The white-robed monk waved his hand.

But this action aggravated his wound, causing him to grimace in pain.

"I'm fine... I just suffered some minor injuries. I'll be fine after a rest."

How could Ji Qing not tell that he was lying?

You're injured like this, and you still say you're fine?

However, Han Li was really ruthless. They were just looking for someone, but he insisted on using heavy force.

Ji Qing shook his head and sighed deeply:

"You wait."

After saying that, Ji Qing returned to the house.

When he came out again, he had a bottle of pills in his hand:

"This is a Rejuvenation Pill; you may take it."

Upon hearing this, gratitude appeared in the white-robed man's eyes.

The Rejuvenation Pill is a top-grade elixir.

It can not only quickly heal injuries, but also restore one's own vitality.

Therefore, this kind of elixir is sold at a very high price in the market.

The man in white tremblingly reached out and took it, feeling immensely grateful.

He was prepared to get a good scolding.

To everyone's surprise, Ji Qing not only didn't scold him, but instead gave him the pills.

"Young Master is truly wonderful; no wonder the Young Palace Master has taken a liking to him," the man in white thought to himself.

He has now made up his mind to defend the young master to the death.

"Your subordinate thanks Young Master for bestowing the pill."

Ji Qing nodded slightly:

You're too kind.

Ji Qing sized up the man in white:

"Now that you have the pills, hurry back. Let's leave this matter here and not pursue Han Li any further."

"Huh? Aren't you going to pursue Han Li anymore?"

"Okay, we won't pursue them," Ji Qing replied.

To be honest, he never imagined these people could capture Han Li.

After all, even if it were him, he would have a hard time if Han Li had those skills.

The only thing we can be sure of now is...

Han Li has already arrived in the Chaotic Star Sea.

This is a good thing.

Knowing what happens next, he should be able to use the Ghost Mist to escape the Chaotic Star Sea and get rid of Jin Kui completely.

Having figured this out, Ji Qing suddenly felt that her future was bright.

..........

After the man in white left, Ji Qing decided to go into seclusion.

Now he plans to properly cultivate the secret techniques, focusing on mastering the Five Elements Divine Flame and the Crimson Flame.

Once he had mastered the secret technique, he would then cultivate the [Heavenly Gold Dao Method] and begin his breakthrough in cultivation.

"Let's begin," Ji Qing said in a deep voice.

He was very well prepared for this seclusion.

He could have as many pills as he wanted to improve his cultivation.

So Ji Qing didn't waste any time. After Zhang took a Heavenly Spirit Pill, he began to cultivate in seclusion.

...........

Spring goes and autumn comes, time flies like an arrow.

Three years passed in the blink of an eye after Ji Qing went into seclusion.

For the past three years, Ji Qing's cave dwelling has remained tightly closed, showing no sign of ever opening.

During this period, Ling Yuling visited many times.

But no one made a sound to disturb them.

She simply sat there for half a day before leaving on her own.

On this day, after finishing her daily cultivation, Ling Yuling went to Ji Qing's cave and quietly watched.

"Sigh, it's been three years already, why hasn't Brother Ji Qing come out yet?"

Ling Yuling's longing was palpable.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Just as Ling Yuling was about to leave, the door to Ji Qing's cave was suddenly opened.

"Phew, it's finally over."

Upon hearing this, a handsome man dressed in white, with a somewhat haggard face, suddenly appeared in Ling Yuling's sight.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Ling Yuling was overjoyed. She immediately rushed towards Ji Qing and buried her head in his chest.

"Brother, why did it take you so long to come out?"

Do you know how much Ling'er misses you?

Upon hearing this, Ji Qing scratched his head, unsure of what to say for a moment.

In the past three years, in addition to successfully mastering the two powerful secret techniques, "Crimson Flame" and "Five Elements Divine Flame", he also successfully cultivated the "Heavenly Gold Dao Technique" to the third level.

As for the [Heavenly Gold Dao Technique], it has a total of fifteen levels, and mastering three levels will grant one access to a powerful supernatural ability.

It is worth mentioning that, having cultivated the [Heavenly Gold Dao Technique] to the third level, his cultivation level has now reached the thirteenth level of Qi Refining.

The rapid improvement in cultivation level is largely thanks to the help of elixirs.

He is exceptionally talented, and given the availability of ample elixirs, there is no reason why he shouldn't break through.

Ji Qing gently patted Ling Yuling's head. His eyes softened.

Elder An is currently in seclusion and will likely not emerge for at least ten or twenty years.

But he couldn't stay idle, so he planned to learn another skill of cultivating immortality.

Ji Qing thought about it for a moment.

He thought talismans were pretty good.

"Ling'er, do you know which elder is skilled at drawing talismans?"

Ling Yuling tilted her head and thought for a moment:

"know.

If I remember correctly, Elder Ji was the one who drew talismans.

Ling Yuling hugged Ji Qing tightly and asked:

"What's wrong? You want to learn how to draw talismans?"

Ji Qing nodded:

"That's right, that's what I'm planning to do."

Elder An is now in seclusion, and I have thoroughly mastered the alchemy techniques he taught me.

When you have free time, it's always good to learn other skills.

Hearing Ji Qing say this, Ling Yuling smiled.

Who wouldn't like someone so ambitious?

"Don't worry, brother, I'll take care of drawing the talismans."

"If my brother wants to, I'll take you there right away."

"Okay, thank you very much, Ling'er."

Ling Yuling's face immediately turned red with embarrassment:

"Hehe, you're too kind, brother. It's what Ling'er should do."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ling Yuling left with Ji Qing.

Tianfu Pavilion is located at the southernmost part of the Star Palace.

This place is full of spiritual energy, with streets that lead in all directions and close to the market.

The one in charge of the Heavenly Talisman Pavilion is a Nascent Soul cultivator in the early stage. His name is Ji Yongwen, and he is the seventeenth elder of the Star Palace.

Tianfu Pavilion is located in a bustling area with a high volume of cultivators coming and going.

Any cultivator who wants to leave Tianxing City or go out to hunt monsters via the teleportation array will choose to buy some life-saving talismans when they see Tianfu Pavilion.

So over time, Tianfu Pavilion made a fortune.
