Chapter 199 - 199: Extraordinary Talent _1
“By the way, where’s Linglong?”
“She’s still in the Jingxin Hall, and Master didn’t allow her to come out. She doesn’t dare to.”
Liu Mengxian thought for a while, then decided to simply let Linglong stay in Jingxin Hall for a while longer.
Luckily, Qingning was in closed-door cultivation, and the other disciples were also out for experience and hadn’t returned… Liu Mengxian glanced at Jin Xiaoxiao and reminded her cautiously once again before letting her mind at ease.
The joyous event at Taixuan Peak soon spread within the sect.
“Strange, doesn’t the Sect Leader always prohibit matters that hinder cultivation? Why has he suddenly changed his mind?”
“Are you stupid? Can Brother Qin be compared to others? Try hosting a wedding yourself, and tomorrow you’ll be taken away by the Law Enforcement Hall!”
“Ah- I envy and am jealous. Why am I so handsome but have such a mediocre talent?”
“I have an exceptional flame, but I’ve yet to find a Taoist couple. Did I complain about anything?”
“Why think so much? Brother Qin is hosting a feast, let’s go and join!”
One by one, the disciples received the news and started heading towards Taixuan Peak.
They weren’t really there for the feast, but to familiarize themselves with Qin Changqing and build a good relationship with a genius. It’s a total bargain, especially since Qin Changqing is also a Tier 4 Alchemist.
Although Liu Mengxian burst out in anger last time, they later realized that she was targeting the Elders. After all, this was a matter for the younger generation, and those old undying were merely trying to join in the fun.
This time, the Elders learned their lesson. We can’t go, right? Fine, fine, let A-Da, A-Er, and A-San go on our behalf.
These Elders were shrewd; they knew that with Qin Changqing’s treatment, he was a qualified successor for the Sect Leader. Naturally, they had to get on good terms with him.
Then, Qin Changqing discovered a business opportunity – the gifts these people gave were simply too abundant!
“Damn it, hosting banquets before was a loss. If I had known earlier, I would have held them at the mountain.”
Mortal families were, after all, mere mortal families. No matter how rich those cultivation families were, they couldn’t compare to the Elders within the sect.
Their gifts were refined, not numerous. With just a casual move from a Nascent Soul or even Deifying elder, those Tier 7 cultivation families couldn’t compete even if they emptied their entire fortunes.
That’s the difference!
But it doesn’t seem too late now.
Qin Changqing estimated that there were quite a few junior sister apprentices on Taixuan Peak. After hosting several more weddings, the Qin family would expand several folds!
[Ding- You’ve married a wife, family member +1, family fortune +688, rewarded with a Youth Retaining Pill +1, cultivation increased by 15 years.] Nuptial night with a candlelit room, in the warm embrace of the matrimonial bed.
On that night, Liu Ran suddenly understood why the ladies around her husband had such high cultivation levels.
Half a month later.
In Qin Changqing’s room.
He closed his eyes and concentrated, the spiritual qi within his body circulated frantically, converging toward his dantian’s spirit cluster.After absorbing the spiritual qi, the spiritual group was constantly compressed under Qin Changqing’s control.
About half an hour later, he stuffed an elixir into his mouth. As the medicinal effect suddenly exploded, the spiritual group, which had been compressed to the extreme, suddenly burst with a loud bang. Qin Changqing’s body trembled, and a powerful aura surged out from him, striking the surrounding barriers.
It took another moment for this movement to stop.
Looking at his dantian, there was now another round Golden Elixir.
Qin Changqing was overjoyed, “I have already transformed the Heavenly Pivot, Heavenly Spinning, Heavenly Cluster, Heavenly Weight, and Jade
Counterbalance into Golden Elixirs. Now only Kaiyang and Yaoguang are left.
Once all seven Golden Elixirs are condensed, even if I haven’t stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm, I won’t be any weaker when facing Divine Transformation Realm experts.”
The difference in these seven Golden Elixirs is that Qin Changqing can cultivate them through the dual cultivation effects and even rely on elixirs to make breakthroughs at critical moments. With his current situation, it is not difficult to condense all seven spiritual groups into Golden Elixirs.
However, after the formation of the elixirs, the difficulty of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm increases, and this process requires gradual accumulation.
“Su Xiaoyue and the others are pregnant. This time I should be able to rush to the tenth level of the Golden Elixir. But to break through the Nascent Soul Realm, I need to cultivate the stripes. According to Lingsu’s statement, the most talented disciples in the first-tier sects can cultivate seven stripes. I don’t ask for too much, it shouldn’t be too much to cultivate nine or ten stripes.”
Thinking of his pregnant wives at home, Qin Changqing’s mood instantly improved.
After ending his cultivation, he walked out of the room. In the courtyard, he saw Jin Xiaoxiao staring at the garden, along with a woman in a blue dress.
“Sister Lan, do you see how special this garden is? I’ll tell you, there’s a Blood Coral King living in here. That guy can cultivate on its own, and with it here, there’s always enough spiritual qi.”
“When I start cultivating my stripes, I’ll ask Brother Qin to help me refine a
Disaster-Alleviating Golden Elixir. The material will be this Blood Coral King.”
In the garden, a scoop of soil trembled. The Blood Coral King stirred the soil on its body, trying to hide itself more thoroughly.
“A Disaster-Alleviating Golden Elixir… that’s a Tier 4 mid-level elixir, and its refining difficulty is no lower than a Tier 4 high-level elixir. Junior Sister, will Brother Qin really help you refine it?”
“Hehe- Don’t worry about it, Brother Qin and I have a great relationship. Right, Sister, aren’t you also cultivating stripes? You missed the Tianti Road because you were trapped in a secret realm this time, why don’t you ask Brother Qin for help?”
“What kind of person is Brother Qin? I heard he won the championship on the Tianti Road this time and was only one step away from reaching the top. And he’s an amazing alchemist and formation master… Brother Qin isn’t very old, not even a hundred years old, how did he achieve such great accomplishments?”
“I don’t know, maybe he has an extraordinary talent?” The two chatted away.
Qin Changqing cleared his throat and walked over.
“Brother Qin!” Jin Xiaoxiao happily ran over and introduced with a smile, “This is Sister Lan Shui’er. She went out to practice for a while … Oh, right, right, Sister Lan is the second sister of Taixuan Peak and also a direct disciple of Master!”
Liu Mengxian’s disciples were few and generally quite young. The eldest disciple Qingning had only been cultivating for just over a hundred years, while the youngest Linglong was only in her twenties.
And Lan Shui’er was Liu Mengxian’s second disciple. Her cultivation was slightly lower than Qingning’s, having achieved four stripes. During the Tianti Road, she had entered a secret realm and was trapped, causing her to return late and miss the Tianti Road.
If it wasn’t for that, she should have also been in closed-door cultivation, attempting to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm just like Qingning.
After Jin Xiaoxiao’s introduction, Qin Changqing roughly figured out Lan Shui’er’s background, while Lan Shui’er also learned that the handsome Brother Qin before her was the genius who almost reached the top of the Tianti Road.
She didn’t believe it when she first heard about this. After all, everyone was aware of the difficulty of the Tianti Road, and no one had ever reached the top in tens of thousands of years. Although Lingxiao Sect was strong, it was only a quasi-Tier 4 Sect. It was unlikely for such a genius to emerge from their sect.
The main reason was that she knew Qingning. She knew the situation of her eldest sister, who had been the number one among the young disciples of the sect, yet she only ranked in the top five on the Outstanding Talents List.
But everyone said it, even Jin Xiaoxiao did. Things that happened on the Tianti Road couldn’t be faked, so Lan Shui’er became curious about what was so magical about Brother Qin. He was both an accomplished cultivator, alchemist, and formation master; even if he had started cultivating in his mother’s womb, it wouldn’t be enough..
