Chapter 346: Chapter 344 Lin Baoping

“Fellow Daoist Jianjia?”

Shen Luoyan sent a Sound Transmission Talisman into the Cave Mansion.

Ning Daoran had an unspeakable bitterness. With Shen Luoyan so boldly approaching the front of his Cave Mansion, didn’t it imply some connection between himself and Slaying Immortal Tower? If someone intent on investigating his travels around the world delved into it, they might even link him with Independent Practitioner Jianjia.

“Shen Building Master, long time no see.”

He lifted the prohibitions of his Cave Mansion, let Shen Luoyan enter, and then immediately reinforced several layers of restrictions to prevent any prying eyes.

“Mm.”

After stepping into the Cave Mansion and looking around, Shen Luoyan smiled, “The scenery in your Cave Mansion is quite pleasing.”

“Please take a seat, Tower Master. Let’s have some tea.”

Ning Daoran personally brewed a pot of Spiritual Tea and, sitting down, said, “One doesn’t visit a temple without a cause. I presume the Tower Master is here to see me for a reason?”

“Indeed.”

Shen Luoyan sat upright and said, “The Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm is about to open soon. This time it coincides with the border battle, so the cultivators entering the Secret Realm will inevitably include those from Sangyu Country. The opportunities within the Secret Realm are indeed captivating, yet the dangers of this journey have also greatly increased.”

She took a sip of the Spiritual Tea and smiled, “There is a Nascent Condensing Elixir in that Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm, which you surely wouldn’t want to miss. I’ve divined the right moment and came here, planning to conduct a transaction with you.”

“What kind of transaction?” Ning Daoran asked with a smile.

Shen Luoyan set down her teacup, her mouth corners curving up slightly, “There is an extremely rare and precious material called Mixed Element Purple Crystal within the Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm, which happens to be one of the main materials for forging my Blood Tears Dragon Demon Saber.”

Saying so, Shen Luoyan gently raised her hand, and immediately the air thrummed with blood Qi as a treasure saber materialized in the palm of her hand—it was that menacing treasure saber of Shen Luoyan’s.

“You must have heard, the Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm is guarded by a Fifth-Order Shapeshifting Treasure, the Nascent Soul Sword. Ordinary Nascent Souls who enter are destined to die. I’ve entered once before and nearly lost half my life, hence I can only entrust the matter of the Mixed Element Purple Crystal to you. Once you obtain this object and quench it into the Blood Tears Dragon Demon Saber, it will greatly benefit my cultivation of the Dragon Demon Heart Scripture.”

“Ah?”

Ning Daoran was surprised, “The Tower Master is cultivating the Dragon Demon Heart Scripture as well?”

“Indeed.”

Shen Luoyan replied indifferently, “You didn’t know?”

“I…”

Ning Daoran slapped his thigh lightly, feeling extremely annoyed inside, wishing he had known earlier that Shen Luoyan also cultivated the Dragon Demon Heart Scripture, as he would not have needed to linger around Dragon Martial Mountain for so long.

Shen Luoyan narrowed her eyes slightly, “Ning Daoran, the blood Qi method you are cultivating seems to stem from the same source as mine, could it also be the Dragon Demon Heart Scripture? To what layer have you cultivated?”

“Indeed, it is the Dragon Demon Heart Scripture. Your servant here is not very talented, having only cultivated up to the Eleventh Layer.”

In truth, he was withholding a bit; Ning Daoran had actually cultivated his Dragon Demon Heart Scripture to the Fifteenth Layer!

“Oh?”

Shen Luoyan was slightly surprised, “I didn’t expect you to have such talent in the Dragon Demon Heart Scripture. I’ve been cultivating it for hundreds of years and have achieved no more than the Twenty Fifth Layer.”

“The Tower Master is peerless, wise and valiant!”

Ning Daoran was secretly shocked inside. To have advanced the extremely challenging Dragon Demon Heart Scripture to the Twenty Fifth Layer was this not the talent of the top geniuses in the Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World?

Although Shen Luoyan was in the Nascent Soul Late Stage, she was not very old, and her advancing to the Divinity Transformation Stage was just a matter of time. Her talent and constitution were undoubtedly indisputable.

“Hum~~”

Upon hearing the compliment, Shen Luoyan rolled her eyes with a face full of speechlessness, “Let’s talk business. Are you willing to enter the Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm and find the Mixed Element Purple Crystal for this Tower Master?”

“It can be done.”

Ning Daoran said, “But the Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm is no ordinary place, fraught with immense dangers. If I am indeed lucky enough to bring the Mixed Element Purple Crystal back for the Tower Master, shouldn’t there be something in it for me?”

“That’s natural.”

Shen Luoyan said, “If you can really bring back a piece of Mixed Element Purple Crystal for me, I am willing to gift you a Fourth-tier Spiritual Treasure suited to your use as a token of thanks. How does that sound?”

“That would be excellent, so it’s agreed!”

Ning Daoran was elated. A Fourth-tier Spiritual Treasure was an incredible object. Although he had numerous top-notch Magical Treasures, he did not possess a single Spiritual Treasure, which differed from Third-tier Magical Treasures, primarily because they contained exceedingly abundant Spiritual Energy and their might was not something Third-tier Magical Treasures could match.

“Mm, it’s a deal.”

Shen Luoyan stood up, took another look at him, and said, “Do you plan to enter the Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm under another identity?”

“Indeed.”

Ning Daoran said, “Independent Practitioner Jianjia, how about that?”

“Independent Practitioner Jianjia is notoriously infamous in the Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World, entering the Secret Realm and slaughtering the innocent is quite fitting…”

After considering briefly, Shen Luoyan smiled, “However, I’ve just visited you, Ning Daoran, and then Independent Practitioner Jianjia appears in the Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm—it might raise suspicions. In that case, I will visit a few more acquaintances who live in seclusion in Kunpeng Immortal City to lay a smokescreen and dispel any unnecessary speculation in your favor.”

“Good, thank you for looking after me, Tower Master.”

“As I should, after all, your entry into the Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm is at my request.”

Ning Daoran nodded in agreement, and thus, Shen Luoyan departed. Ning Daoran continued with his cultivation in the Cave Mansion, refining his skills for a few more days to prepare for entering the Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm.

…

Deep into the night.

In an alley within Kunpeng Immortal City, a peerless beauty emanating the aura of the Nascent Soul Late Stage appeared before a narrow and cramped door, knocking on a small gate.

“Master… Tower Master…”

When the door opened, a middle-aged man’s eyes immediately reddened, and tears streamed down his face: “Wu have always known… Tower Master will never forget us who have once contributed to the Slaying Immortal Tower…”

“Hmph…”

Shen Luoyan responded with a faint smile.

An hour later.

In the fireworks and willow alley of the Kunpeng Immortal City, facing south, the door of a house opened, and several Foundation Establishment female cultivators were sparing no effort to please a handsome young master. But just then, a breeze blew past, sweeping away the intoxicated look on the young master’s face, who quickly waved his hand, saying, “All of you, retreat immediately, I have an honored guest visiting!”

“Yes!”

The female cultivators had never seen this noble young master so serious before and immediately stepped down with hands down.

The young master went to the bedside and greeted with respect and salutation: “Wind-finding Envoy has seen the Tower Master!”

“You seem to be enjoying yourself quite leisurely!”

Shen Luoyan’s gaze was commanding as she said: “I’m afraid if you indulge in this place of fireworks for a few more years, you might fall back from the Nascent Soul Stage to the Golden Core Stage, won’t you?”

“How could that be…”

The young master’s face showed embarrassment: “This subordinate is merely seeking that path that is distinctly his own amidst the flowers.”

“Hmph…”

Shen Luoyan said, “I have never tasted the spiritual wine of the brothel. Won’t you invite this Tower Master for a drink?”

“Good, Tower Master, please!”

Two hours later.

At the top floor of the Southern Heaven Palace in Kunpeng Immortal City.

“Shua~~~”

A graceful figure with a saber appeared outside a giant window in the palace, speaking with an indifferent smile: “Fellow Daoist Lin, it’s been many years, I wonder if the practice hall in the Southern Heaven Palace is sturdy. Shen Luoyan, having nothing particular to do, suddenly remembered that it’s been many years since I have sparred with Fellow Daoist Lin and I’ve specially come to experience the formidable Kunpeng Immortal Technique!”

Updat𝓮d fr𝙤m ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com.

“…”

Out of the Great Hall, a figure stepped forward, extremely handsome and looking middle-aged – it was Palace Master Lin Tiannan.

“Tower Master Shen, long time no see.”

Lin Tiannan’s mouth twitched, and he thought to himself that Shen Luoyan, if you want to beat me up, just say so directly. Why beat around the bush saying you want to experience the Kunpeng Immortal Technique? With you, Shen Luoyan, being not only in the Nascent Soul Late Stage but also a Great Master in the Late-stage Chaos, who could be your match in the entire Eastern Wasteland Cultivation World besides those old monsters in the Divinity Transformation Stage?

“So, Fellow Daoist Lin is not willing to accept the challenge?”

“How dare I not!”

Lin Tiannan replied with a hearty smile: “Since Tower Master Shen has the interest to spar, I will most definitely make Tower Master Shen enjoy the match. Right this way, please!”

Soon after, a series of loud noises came from the practice hall of the Southern Heaven Palace; the commotion was so great that even the soundproof and shockproof arrays guarding it seemed barely able to cope. A series of continuous vibrations echoed, and those in the know understood that their Palace Master was getting thrashed; those unaware thought that an earthquake was happening beneath Kunpeng Immortal City.

…

Several days later.

Ning Daoran was ready to set out, with the Spirit Garden Grotto Heaven tied around his waist. Before leaving, he stored all the rare treasures within his Cave Mansion into the Spirit Garden Grotto Heaven, ready to flee at a moment’s notice.

Inside the Spirit Garden Grotto Heaven, Big Stupid Deer, Little Bai, Little Blackie, and others had already been cautioned by Ning Daoran. The Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm was extremely dangerous, and it might require their intervention at any time, so they all had to be prepared.

For a moment, everyone was rubbing their hands in anticipation, just waiting to enter the Secret Realm and rub those blind cultivators of Sangyu Country against the ground.

In fact, Ning Daoran was not a highly murderous person, but if he encountered cultivators from Sangyu Country in the Secret Realm, he would certainly not be merciful.

After arriving outside the city, he disappeared into the wind, and when he reappeared, he had donned a flowing green robe, with a Qiushui Sword strapped to his back, and his entire being exuded the Jianjia Sword Intent, having transformed into the fearsome figure of the Independent Practitioner Jianjia!

After releasing his Golden Core Divine Sense, he soon sensed an ancient prohibition above the Eastern Sea slowly beginning to unravel.

Taking off in a flash, he traveled with extreme speed, his tunneling light pulsing forward.

Before long, a misty halo appeared in the sky, and within the halo, the prohibitions were wrapped in mist. Viewed from the west, it looked like a half-moon rising from the water, its reflection shining, forming a complete moon.

Perhaps the name of the Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm originated from this sight.

In the air, streaks of light sped towards the area. There were dignified Golden Core Late Stage cultivators in broad robes, noble scions in treasure chariots, and fleets of treasure ships spanning the sky, seemingly belonging to holy sons and daughters from reclusive Immortal Sects.

On one of the treasure ships, a group of beautiful women rose into the sky, their white dresses fluttering, each wielding a treasure sword. Particularly, the woman at the forefront was stunningly graceful, so beautiful that she instantly drew the attention of many cultivators.

“Lin Baoping! The Holy Daughter of Furong Immortal Palace, Lin Baoping, actually came to the Mirror Flower Water Moon Secret Realm!”

“My heavens, it’s really Lin Baoping. She’s nearly identical to the portraits in the scrolls, I never thought I’d see this reclusive Holy Daughter in the Secret Realm!”

“It is said that Lin Baoping was born with a First Grade Wood Spirit Root, achieved Foundation Establishment at sixteen, Golden Core at forty-six, and now not even a hundred years old, she has already advanced to the Golden Core Late Stage, and is regarded as the future Palace Master of the Furong Immortal Palace!”

…

“Hmph!”

Lin Baoping seemed to hear the discussions and cast a distant glance, emitting a light snort.

Ning Daoran furrowed his brow.

He also sneakily glanced at Lin Baoping. Very ordinary, honestly, not as beautiful as Lin Man and Big Sister.
