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

Chapter 70: Visiting Card

"With the help of your Yibu Imperial Guards, I have already taught the Tianyun Holy Gate a lesson. The three supreme emperors of the Monster Race were also shot by the Yibu Imperial Guards. In another half month, my... mission will be completed." Jinli is also learning Qi Yuan's way of speaking.

"The mission is completed? So fast! Impressive! After you're done, don't log off. Wait for me for a while, and we'll meet up!"

"Okay." Jinli holds Linglong Yuxi in her hand.

Now, with the Yibu Imperial Guards in her hands, she can truly be considered the Empress of Nanqian.

The taste of power in her hands is truly intoxicating.

But she, who has always loved the clear spring and gentle breeze and knows her own position, quickly wakes up from it.

"Let's leave this matter aside. It's time to leave."

"I was never a qualified emperor, so leaving is just leaving."

She has already done her best with the matters in front of her. With the support of the Yibu Imperial Guards, she has eliminated the Monster Race, suppressed the Tianyun Holy Gate, and resolved some crises. As for the matters behind her, she will rely on the people behind her.

At this moment, Jinli sits by the window, gazing absentmindedly at the ancient Qichun wood in the distance.

...

"Senior Brother, a visiting card!"

In the early morning, Qi Yuan was awakened by someone in his dream.

Having killed too many people in the game, he has become accustomed to it and no longer has nightmares.

But killing too many people is tiring, so these days he has been sleeping longer than usual.

Now being awakened, he rubbed his sleepy eyes and brushed away the hair between his eyebrows. "What? What is it?"

Qi Yuan feels a bit grumpy.

But when he realizes that there is something important, he suppresses his grumpiness.

Leaving the thatched hut, Qi Yuan sees Jiang Lingsu standing gracefully outside the courtyard.

With a delicate and lovely appearance, she is pleasing to the eye.

Beautiful things are always pleasing to the eye, and his grumpiness dissipates a little.

"Senior Brother, it's a visiting card for Master." Jiang Lingsu hands the visiting card to Qi Yuan. "The Sect Master asked Qingying to deliver it, and she said that the Sect Master has a message for you."

"Oh? What message?" Qi Yuan takes the visiting card.

The visiting card looks high-end, with ink paintings on the outside.

"The Sect Master said you can open the visiting card and take a look." Jiang Lingsu says.

Qi Yuan is slightly stunned.

He wonders what the Sect Master of Dao Sect is up to.

He opens the visiting card and reads it carefully, his brows immediately furrowing.

He feels that his grumpiness was justified.

He is shocked and wonders if it's because he mentioned Guangming Palace that day and was sensed by the powerful beings of Guangming Palace, resulting in a visiting card being sent to meet his master.

The visiting card is sent in the name of Guangming Palace.

The content is simple, roughly stating that a Foundation Building cultivator named Zhu Lianhua from Guangming Palace has arrived in Great Shang and wishes to invite some top Daoist figures from Great Shang to gather and discuss the future situation of the Great Shang Immortal Cultivation World, and determine the development of Great Shang.

Before the gathering, a visit is required.

Zhu Lianhua will come to Divine Light Sect in a few days, but the specific time is uncertain. Divine Light Sect needs to make preparations first.

After reading the content of the visiting card, he breathes a sigh of relief.

It's not here to cause trouble, he was just being paranoid.

Qi Yuan looks at the content of the visiting card with a cold smile. "This kid is even better at pretending than me!"

He says and shows the visiting card to Jiang Lingsu.

After all, it's not something that needs to be kept secret.

Jiang Lingsu takes the visiting card and after reading it, she grits her teeth, especially when she sees the name, a faint killing intent flashes in her eyes. "This Zhu Lianhua is really ridiculous. He's so used to being high and mighty, thinking he's someone important? A mere Foundation Building cultivator, yet acting so grand!"

The tone of Zhu Lianhua in the visiting card is extremely arrogant.

Moreover, the specific time of his arrival is uncertain, yet he asks Qi Yuan and the others to prepare to receive him.

Who does he think he is, coming to inspect as a leader?

And discussing the situation of the Great Shang Immortal Cultivation World, determining the future development of Great Shang. Any cultivator from the Great Shang Kingdom who sees this would want to say: Who do you think you are, and what qualifications do you have?

In the visiting card, Zhu Lianhua's arrogance is fully displayed.

"Great minds think alike." Qi Yuan agrees with his junior sister's words.

Jiang Lingsu continues, "People from Guangming Palace have always been like this, especially when they go to some small places. The people from their organization always look down on others. Unfortunately, they do have the capital to be arrogant. It's better for us not to offend them, otherwise... it will cause some trouble."

Jiang Lingsu also has some fear of Guangming Palace.

Of course, it's just fear.

"I'll go and give the visiting card to Master." Qi Yuan, holding the visiting card, suddenly feels better.

Maybe he can see his master again.

It has been several months, and he misses him very much.

Qi Yuan arrives halfway up the mountain and encounters the barrier blocking his way again.

He holds the visiting card and says loudly, "Master, someone from Guangming Palace is here to see you. This is a visiting card."

As he speaks, he raises the visiting card and looks ahead.

He wants to see his master.

At this moment, a gust of wind blows, and the visiting card flutters.

The moon on the top of the mountain seems to pour down a ray of moonlight.

The combination of light and shadow forms two characters: "not visible."

Pausing for a moment, the light and shadow dissipate again and become invisible.

"Not visible, I understand," Qi Yuan said disappointedly, not having seen his master.

He held the invitation card and felt its texture. "It seems quite expensive. I'll sell it later and see if I can exchange it for a spiritual stone."

One day later, in the market surrounding the Divine Light Sect.

A figure dressed unusually appeared, accompanied by a Foundation Building cultivator.

That Foundation Building cultivator was unexpectedly at the peak of Foundation Building, but in front of another cultivator at the mid-stage of Foundation Building, he appeared very obsequious.

"Fellow Daoist Zhu, this is the market below the Divine Light Sect. However, it's dilapidated and there's nothing good here, not comparable to your Bright Palace," the cultivator at the peak of Foundation Building said aloud instead of using voice transmission.

Unfortunately, the people in the market had never heard of the Bright Palace, so his words fell on deaf ears.

Only a cultivator completely shrouded in a cloak seemed to have heard something. His heart skipped a beat, but he pretended as if nothing had happened.

Zhu Lianhua scanned the market and lightly said, "It's alright, there might be some overlooked treasures here."

He came to the Divine Light Sect this time for two reasons. First, he naturally wanted to pay respects to the strongest individual in the Divine Light Sect, the Peak Master of Seven Colour Peak. Second, there were recent rumors that a precious treasure had appeared in the Divine Light Sect, accompanied by several anomalies. Such a treasure would be sought after by those with virtue.

He came from the Bright Palace, which represented great virtue.

His true purpose for coming this time, however, was something else.

The cultivator at the peak of Foundation Building sneered and asked, "Fellow Daoist Zhu, are you also here for that treasure?"

"If it's truly a treasure of that level, I must personally take it away. The Divine Light Sect's temple is too small. If they keep such a treasure, I'm afraid they won't be able to control it and it will bring disaster," Zhu Lianhua said matter-of-factly.

The cultivator at the peak of Foundation Building, Wang Shuang, felt disdain in his heart, but still flattered, "Fellow Daoist Zhu truly lives up to being from the Bright Palace, caring for the world. Although we haven't established a relationship with the Divine Light Sect yet, we have already considered their interests."

"You mentioned the Five Elements treasure. Has the Divine Light Sect obtained it?" Zhu Lianhua asked.

Wang Shuang pondered and said, "Even if they have obtained it, they probably haven't announced it to the outside world."

"Do you think they would be willing to exchange their treasure for a recommendation to enter the Bright Palace?" Zhu Lianhua asked.

Wang Shuang was also taken aback by the question.

The recommendation to enter the Bright Palace for a cultivator was indeed precious.

But that was it.

The Bright Palace was powerful, but it was too far from the Great Shang!

Wang Shuang respected Zhu Lianhua, but if Zhu Lianhua really pushed him to the limit, he would dare to kill Zhu Lianhua.

Of course, he wouldn't do so unless pushed to the limit. Who would take such a risk?

Wang Shuang was speechless towards Zhu Lianhua, a cultivator from a big place. But he still said, "I'm afraid the Divine Light Sect doesn't recognize the true value of the treasure."

Implicitly, it meant that the Divine Light Sect wouldn't bring out the treasure.

Zhu Lianhua heard this and wasn't surprised. "It seems I'll have to find another way."

Although he was accustomed to arrogance,

He also understood that he couldn't really push people too far.

Otherwise, his identity would mean nothing.

In the Great Shang Kingdom, although he looked down on all Foundation Building cultivators, if a Yuan Dan cultivator took a risk and disregarded their own life and wealth, he would also suffer.

The two walked in the market, occasionally communicating through voice transmission, occasionally speaking out loud.

At this moment, Wang Shuang said, "I have learned a treasure-hunting technique. Although it is sometimes effective and sometimes not, occasionally I can find some treasures.

Today, I will show Fellow Daoist my skills and find some treasures to present to Fellow Daoist."

Wang Shuang's attitude was very humble, and he had already figured out some of Zhu Lianhua's personality.

Sure enough, when Zhu Lianhua heard this, he became very interested. "Let's see Fellow Daoist's abilities."

The spell that Wang Shuang displayed was called the Heaven-Seeking Treasure Technique.

For some unique and precious treasures, he would have a sense of them.

But he also understood that there were no valuable treasures to be found in this market, so he decided that if he didn't succeed in finding any treasures, he would pay for them himself.

As the spell was cast, a golden light flashed in Wang Shuang's pupils.

After about half an incense stick's worth of time, Wang Shuang's face lit up. "I didn't expect to actually find a treasure here. Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment while I buy that treasure and show it to Fellow Daoist."

The two went together, and the stall owner might see Zhu Lianhua's extraordinary attire and randomly raise the price.

Zhu Lianhua nodded, realizing that he shouldn't have followed.

After all, if he had followed, and Wang Shuang failed to find any treasures, he wouldn't have had the chance to secretly replace it with a treasure for him.

He stood in the market, quietly waiting.

Not long after, Wang Shuang's face was filled with joy. "Fellow Daoist, I only spent one spirit stone and successfully found a treasure. Fellow Daoist, take a look at this!"

As Wang Shuang spoke, he raised the treasure he had found. "Don't be fooled by its appearance, it may look fancy and damaged, but the material inside..."

He stopped speaking because he noticed that Zhu Lianhua's expression was not good.

Did he say something wrong?

Wang Shuang was a little scared. "Fellow Daoist?"

Zhu Lianhua snatched the treasure from Wang Shuang's hands, his expression unchanged. "Where did this thing come from?"

Wang Shuang's heart sank, and he cautiously asked, "Does Fellow Daoist recognize this treasure?"

"This is a piece of crap!" Zhu Lianhua threw the thing in his hand to the ground. "This is the invitation letter I gave to the Divine Light Sect!"

He clenched his fists in anger, obviously furious.

Upon hearing this, Wang Shuang was also stunned.

He didn't expect that the treasure he found was actually the invitation letter Zhu Lianhua gave to the Divine Light Sect!

This is too... outrageous!
