Chapter 118: Fellow Daoist Shen, Please Explain
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In a quiet room filled with fragrance, Yu Qingling’s cloud brocade ribbon fluttered on her shoulders, and the surface of her pink and green shoes swayed quickly and slowly. Her fair hands were even clenched into a ball.
The three knocks just now were really just her curiosity. However, after knocking, she regretted it immediately.
“What should I do? If Fellow Daoist Shen responds, what… What should I say? What do Talisman Masters and Alchemists communicate about?” Yu Qingling was nervous and depressed. She was afraid that the Talisman Master next door would respond.
Knock knock knock.
Every reverberation hit her heart. She stared hard at the wall. Her entire body tensed. The next second after the sound dissipated, the wall became nothing. Yu Qingling saw the face that caused her emotions to fluctuate endlessly. In an instant, she blushed and stammered, not knowing what to say.
“Fellow Daoist Yu. We’ve just built our foundation not long ago. If you have any cultivation doubts, you can tell me.” Shen Ping took the initiative to say with a smile.
Yu Qingling lowered her head to look at the surface of her shoes. “Fellow Daoist
Shen, I… do have some questions that I want to communicate with you.”
“Fellow Daoist Yu, please speak.” Shen Ping gave her a reassuring look.
At this moment, Yu Qingling’s thoughts were circulating rapidly as she racked her brains to search for her past confusion. Moreover, this confusion just happened to be something Fellow Daoist Shen might know.
Soon, her eyes lit up. She got it!
“Fellow Daoist Shen. I don’t understand alchemy.” She raised her head and said.
Shen Ping had a strange expression on his face. He was a Talisman Master, but this little girl asked him about the confusion of alchemy. Was she trying to make things difficult for him?
“It’s a few Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment pills. I’m not sure what they’re for.” Yu Qingling hurriedly added.
Shen Ping smiled patiently and said, “Fellow Daoist Yu, tell me.”
“Snow Ganoderma Pill. Spirit Jade Ginseng Ointment. Emerald Treasure Liquid.
Dew Pill.”
Seven or eight special pills landed beside Shen Ping’s ear. His smile froze. He looked at Yu Qingling’s serious face.
Shen Ping could not help but size up this Foundation Establishment female cultivator with a sword mark between her eyebrows. She was from the Zhongsheng Continent and had a noble status.
There was a ripple in his heart.
“So Fellow Daoist Shen doesn’t know either…” Yu Qingling couldn’t help but be a little disappointed when she saw that Shen Ping didn’t speak for a long time. These questions had been buried in her heart for a long time.
If it wasn’t for an accident, she did not know that there was such a pill at the Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment levels.
“Fellow Daoist Yu, you’re an alchemist. Do you really not know the use of pills like the Snow Ganoderma Pill and the Spirit Jade Ginseng Ointment?” Shen Ping stared at Yu Qingling.
“Master, and even Father didn’t say. And they don’t seem to let me come into contact with such pills.” Yu Qingling’s intelligent eyes flickered with curiosity as she cupped her hands. “Fellow Daoist Shen, if you know, please tell me!”
“Fellow Daoist Yu. I don’t know their use either.” Shen Ping turned around and left. He didn’t know the cultivation and strength of Yu Qingling’s master, but her father was very likely a Nascent Soul Realm expert to be able to stand in the Moon Spirit Hall. It was even to the extent that his status wasn’t low.
If the other party knew that he had revealed the use of the Snow Ganoderma Pill, it might not be enough for him to die a few times.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, you must know, right!” Yu Qingling was anxious and hurriedly said, “I’m willing to take out a top-grade dharma artifact.”
Shen Ping stopped in his tracks. A top-grade Dharma artifact.
No.
He quickly sat cross-legged on the futon. A moment later, the wall slowly recovered. Yu Qingling heaved a sigh of relief and finally managed to smooth things over. She sat on the futon and took out the core jade token. A smile appeared on his lips. “They didn’t even tell me. But there must be an introduction in the core jade token.” Her divine sense seeped into the jade token. A large number of resources and items immediately appeared in front of him.
“Foundation Establishment Pill.” As this thought spread, the vast number of items decreased rapidly. Yu Qingling observed it seriously, but she was speechless after scanning it with her divine sense. “Qi Refinement!” She gritted her teeth unwillingly.
A large number of Qi Refinement Pills appeared one after another, but there were still no pills like the Snow Ganoderma Pill or the Spirit Jade Ginseng Ointment.
“Master!! It must be Master!” Yu Qingling pouted angrily. She got up and went to the wall again.
Knock knock knock.
Shen Ping turned a deaf ear. He was currently studying the use of the core jade token. As his divine sense permeated, an indifferent voice sounded from the jade token.
“South Flame Continent, Fire Toad Cave, Wei Kingdom’s D-rank core, Shen Ping. The core jade token of the True Treasure Pavilion has three uses. Do you want to check?”
Shen Ping was not surprised. When he checked his area previously, he knew that there was an array spirit. “Yes.”
Soon, the voice sounded again.
“Firstly, the core jade token can check the list of all resources in the True Treasure Pavilion other than restricted-level items. Every resource item has a detailed introduction. At the same time, you can also check your contributions in the True Treasure Pavilion.
“Secondly, this core jade token has a special communication effect. It’s only limited to communication between the core members of the True Treasure Pavilion. No matter where you are, you can be unimpeded in any situation.
“Thirdly, when facing danger, the jade token can trigger an array formation and resist an all-out attack from an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.”
He couldn’t wait to open the resource list. He was deeply shocked. Even with his current divine sense level, he was actually unable to quickly determine the number of these resources and items. The densely packed rare treasures, cultivation techniques, and rare treasures… flickered like vast stars.
“This is the treasure vault of the True Treasure Pavilion!” Shen Ping was extremely excited.
When he had the qualification jade token, he could check many resources and items in the Wei Kingdom’s True Treasure Pavilion. However, compared to now, it was simply like the difference between a firefly and the bright moon.
Foundation Establishment.
With a thought, only the various resources that could be used at the Foundation Establishment Realm were left. He looked at the densely packed items floating in the air. He could not help but take a deep breath. “A rare treasure used to assist in Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment.”
The items decreased again. However, there were still hundreds of them. When his divine sense landed on any kind of treasure, he would automatically receive a detailed introduction of this treasure.
Several days passed. Shen Ping withdrew his divine sense from the jade slip. This time, he had really broadened his horizons.
At Cloud Mountain Parlour in the Wei Kingdom, most rogue cultivators could only come into contact with the Foundation Establishment Pill. However, the Foundation Establishment Pill was very cheap. Third-grade guest elders of the True Treasure Pavilion could exchange for it for free.
Shopkeeper Ding had a good network and background. However, he could only come into contact with five or six Foundation Establishment treasures. But now, not only could Shen Ping come into contact with hundreds of Foundation Establishment treasures, but there were also several supplementary effects that could be said to be abnormal.
“Foundation Establishment Cultivators.” He shook his head and sighed. He had once looked up to the unattainable Foundation Establishment Realm. Now, he could easily achieve it with just contribution points.
Life was really unpredictable.
The Moon Spirit Hall was guarded by magnificent palaces of various sizes. In a palace on the east side, Li Yin sat cross-legged. His gaze landed on the woman in front of him. “Junior Sister. It’s a rare opportunity. Immediately apply to become the Dao Protector of this year’s core member, Talisman Master Shen Ping.”
The woman was wearing light armor. Her well-defined and slender outline seemed to be natural. Puzzlement flashed across her valiant eyebrows. “Senior Brother. You should know that the Dao Protector who protects the core member has to be in the Pseudo Nascent Soul realm. Although I’ll obtain additional contribution points during this period, to me, this is just icing on the cake!”
Li Yin shook his head and said softly, “I can’t reveal anything to you. Do you understand?”
The woman’s pupils constricted. She almost blurted out, “A…”
“Silence!” Li Yin’s Nascent Soul magic powers surged.
The woman’s face was tense, but her eyes revealed shock. She did not expect that the core assessment that her senior brother was in charge of would actually give birth to the A-rank. “Thank you for taking care of me, Senior Brother!” The woman solemnly cupped her hands and bowed.
Li Yin smiled and said, “There’s no need to stand on ceremony with me. This time, we happen to be in a favorable position. However, I might not be the only one who knows this news. The True Treasure Pavilion is deep. I’m afraid there are many people applying to be Dao Protectors. You have to be mentally prepared.
“At the Golden Core level, I have never been afraid!” The woman’s beautiful hair fluttered in the wind with great confidence.
On the twelfth day of the meditation room, Shen Ping realized that an indifferent voice appeared in the core jade token again.
“Core member Shen Ping. This time, the top five Dao Protectors will be elected. You can choose one of them first!”
His divine sense saw the magic powers of the five Golden Core Dao Protectors. Next to the magic power phantom was the choice of the Dao Protector. Shen Ping saw at a glance that three of them were leaning towards him. The other two were Yu Qingling. He thought of the situation of the second assessment. He came to a realization. There were two men and one woman. “Who should I choose? Of course it’s the strongest!”
Half a month passed, the purple-robed cultivator appeared again. He smiled at Shen Ping and the others. “The Dao Protector has been chosen. The special-class guest elder assessment has ended successfully. The True Treasure Pavilion will nurture the core members who have just been promoted every once in a while. There are still 15 years before the next nurturing.”
With that, he waved his sleeve. Five jade boxes floated. “The jade box contains a scroll of your respective techniques. When you go back, you can study a scripture in the jade box during this period. I’m sure it will be very helpful to you. I hope that the next time you come, your skills will clearly improve.”
A moment later, Shen Ping and the others left the palace with Li Yin. At the entrance of the palace, the Yu couple and her Dao Protector were waiting.
Yu Qingling glanced at Shen Ping and the others, and then she cupped her hands and said, “Fellow Daoists, we’ll meet again in the future!”
Shen Ping and the other three also cupped their hands and bowed.
“Good-bye..”
