Gold Core Is A Star, You Call This Cultivating Immortality?

Chapter 25: Jiang Lingsu's Commission

The faint morning light began to shine, revealing the dawn.

Jiang Lingsu, dressed in a green robe, danced gracefully, resembling a green snake.

Her lively eyes still carried a hint of weariness. She brushed away the hair in front of her temples and took a deep breath of air. "It seems like I lost a piece of Jinyuan Jade yesterday. What a pity that Divine Light Sect doesn't sell it. I'll just have to make do."

Jinyuan Jade was originally a kind of spiritual jade that emitted a mysterious fragrance when ignited, refreshing the mind and eyes.

Yesterday, while cleaning the puppet, she accidentally poured the remaining Jinyuan Jade into the trash.

In the past, she wouldn't have cared.

But here in Divine Light Sect, she couldn't buy a replacement.

She decided to go to the trash and retrieve it.

She arrived at the trash heap, covering her mouth and nose with her sleeves. She was prepared to summon the puppet and retrieve the piece of Jinyuan Jade.

However... the trash heap.

"Who rummaged through it?"

She stared at the trash heap, stunned.

Usually, her household trash and some unused spiritual remnants were placed there.

Like the Jinyuan Jade.

She didn't expect someone to rummage through the trash outside her house.

She thought of something and a talisman appeared in her hand.

This talisman was called the Sensing Talisman, one of the many talismans in Jiang Lingsu's possession, refined by a cultivator in the Divine Infant stage.

She usually placed it in front of her bed as an early warning.

When the trash heap was rummaged through, she immediately took out the Sensing Talisman to see if there were any clues on it.

She saw a faint pattern in the middle of the Sensing Talisman.

"Last night at the hour of ugliness? A living being stayed outside my house for the time it takes an incense stick to burn?"

Jiang Lingsu deduced from the residual information on the Sensing Talisman that a living being had stayed outside her house for quite some time last night.

But there was no ill intent, as the Sensing Talisman did not sound the alarm. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to sleep.

Jiang Lingsu looked at the trash heap, furrowing her brows. "There are only my Master, me, and Senior Brother at Seven Colour Peak. Other ordinary animals wouldn't trigger the Sensing Talisman. At least it has to be a spiritual being."

"Could it be..." Suddenly, Jiang Lingsu looked towards the neighboring thatched cottage.

She remembered how Senior Brother looked when he ate spiritual food last time, and an inexplicable emotion arose within her.

Sigh...

After thinking for a moment, she returned to her own room.

Half an hour later, Jiang Lingsu arrived outside Qi Yuan's courtyard.

"Senior Brother, are you awake?" Jiang Lingsu called out softly.

"What's the matter, Junior Sister?" Qi Yuan had changed into a white robe and looked quite handsome and elegant. Today was the Foundation Building Conference, so he woke up earlier than usual.

Seeing Qi Yuan's appearance, Jiang Lingsu felt her heart lighten.

Indeed, seeing something beautiful always puts one in a good mood.

"Senior Brother, can I trouble you with something?" Jiang Lingsu said.

"Oh, what is it?" Qi Yuan was very enthusiastic. He was grateful for Junior Sister's cultivation technique jade slip and spiritual food from last time.

"Senior Brother, do you know of any special or mysterious people in our sect?"

Jiang Lingsu initially focused on Peak Master Ruan Yixi as the person who could resist disasters.

However, Jiang Lingsu felt that she could lock onto more people.

"Special people?" Qi Yuan pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up. "I know someone who is very special."

"Who?" Jiang Lingsu's heart skipped a beat.

"It's me!" Qi Yuan pointed at himself.

Jiang Lingsu was stunned at his words.

Indeed, Senior Brother was quite special, after all... cultivators from the Silly Lineage were a bit abnormal.

Jiang Lingsu felt a bit disappointed, thinking that asking Senior Brother for help was unreliable. But then she remembered what happened in the morning.

She took out a storage bag. "Senior Brother, there are a thousand spiritual stones in here. Consider it your reward. Please help me find more special people, and there will be more rewards later."

Qi Yuan looked at the storage bag and blinked his eyes. "What does Junior Sister mean by doing all this?"

Jiang Lingsu didn't expect Senior Brother to ask this.

But upon further thought, being infatuated is just a little foolish, not being a fool.

She stated the reasons she had previously thought of: "Before I came to Divine Light Sect, I met a divination expert who told me that there is a special person within the sect who is my benefactor. So, I want to find out who that person is."

Upon hearing Jiang Lingsu's words, Qi Yuan suddenly blurted out, "I might as well believe that I am Qin Shihuang."

Jiang Lingsu: "???"

Qi Yuan continued, "I'll take on this task."

Qi Yuan caught the storage bag.

His eyes could see different information.

Finding a special person should be the most suitable.

"Does this person have any other characteristics?" Qi Yuan asked again.

Jiang Lingsu lowered her head, "He should have extremely strong power, or perhaps exceptional talent. Oh, and it's possible that it's not just one person!

Please help me, Senior Brother!"

After Jiang Lingsu finished speaking, she left Qi Yuan's courtyard.

Qi Yuan held the storage bag and looked at the one thousand spirit stones inside.

It must be said that this was the first time he had seen such a large sum of money.

However, he didn't have much of a reaction in his heart.

Instead, he murmured, "Why would Junior Sister give me spirit stones?"

It seemed like Junior Sister really needed his help.

But these spirit stones seemed to be given to him.

"Could it be that Junior Sister saw through my inner stubbornness and wants to expose my disguise? Keep me as a pet?"

Qi Yuan had a sudden idea.

But in the end, he didn't dwell on it and instead focused his gaze on the kitchen knife tied up in the courtyard.

"Junior Sister saw my stubbornness, did you see it too? Knife."

The kitchen knife lay on the ground, motionless.

"What do you think, what name should I give you?"

The kitchen knife still didn't move.

"Knife?"

"Vegetable Knife?"

"Vegetable Vegetable?"

"Knife Knife?"

"Demon Knife?"

"Heavenly Knife?"

The kitchen knife finally had some reaction, trembling slightly.

Qi Yuan then grabbed the knife and looked at it with a puzzled expression, "Is this what having intelligence looks like? Why doesn't it even have the intelligence of my little friend at home?"

Little friend, you should let out a fart. At least you know to call your friend Xiaodu to fart.

This kitchen knife seems to have intelligence, but it's no different from not having intelligence.

But thinking about it, it's normal.

But Qi Yuan felt that his combat power had increased by a level while holding the knife.

"Can Xiaji Eight Chops kill a few Yuan Dan cultivators?"

Unfortunately, this is Seven Colour Peak, not a good place to practice knife skills.

And he still had to represent Divine Light Sect at the Foundation Building Conference, so he didn't have time to practice knife skills.

...

Inside Divine Light Sect.

The Foundation Building Conference finally began.

And this Foundation Building Conference, because of the First Grade Foundation Building spiritual object, the Yellow Flower Fruit, brought by Divine Light Sect, the participants from various sects in the Great Shang Kingdom were not weak.

"Elder Feihua from Demon Desire Sect is here!"

"Jianzhu, the main disciple of Xuanfushan, is here!"

"The Prince of Changshan County is here!"

"Old Ancestor Baiji from Black Mountain Sect is here!"

With the announcement of the boy, colorful clouds gathered outside the mountain gate of Divine Light Sect.

One by one, spirit boats stopped in mid-air and landed in front of the mountain gate of Divine Light Sect.

Qi Yuan, dressed in white robes, his clothes fluttering in the wind, looked at the people from various sects in front of him, his eyes filled with a refined smile, "Welcome everyone to Divine Light Sect to participate in the Foundation Building Conference!"

At this moment, he was quite reliable.
