Seeking Immortality In The World Of Cultivation-Chapter 955 - 679: Luo Jing Invites_2

Chapter 955: Chapter 679: Luo Jing Invites_2

Master Luo Jing did not have to wait too long.

However, during these few days, Master Luo Jing had some new thoughts about her prior decision to inform He Song of the Earth Vein Spirit Pearl.

A few days ago, He Song inquired of Master Luo Jing about the Earth Vein Beads.

Master Luo Jing, unaware of the reason, did not hide anything because it was He Song who had asked.

Thus, He Song came to know of all things related to the Earth Vein Beads.

Moreover, he learned about the formidable power of the Earth Vein Bead once successfully refined into a life-bound Artifact.

This matter had a significant impact on He Song’s subsequent decision when he heard that the Treasure Pavilion was selling a method for refining life-bound Artifacts.

The He Song of that time chose the method for refining the Earth Vein Spirit Pearl without any hesitation.

As for the methods to refine other life-bound Artifacts, He Song did not even give them a glance.

Originally, this was a matter of mutual agreement, and if He Song faced obstacles later, it had nothing to do with her, Master Luo Jing.

However, it was after listening to her that He Song had become interested in the Earth Vein Spirit Pearl in the first place.

And following her advice, knowing the immense power of the Earth Vein Spirit Pearl, he ultimately decided he wanted the method for its refinement.

Under these circumstances,

if He Song really searched for a long time but still found it difficult to refine the Earth Vein Spirit Pearl,

it’s likely he would harbor some resentment in his heart.

The relationship between Master Luo Jing and He Song was quite good.

As such,

to prevent this matter from affecting their relationship,

Master Luo Jing naturally had to take some action.

That’s why, when He Song came out of his closed-door cultivation this time, Master Luo Jing spoke up, suggesting that if He Song later wished to stop trying to refine the Earth Vein Spirit Pearl,

he could always come and find her.

By saying this, as long as she did not take spirit stones from He Song later on, the matter would certainly be overlooked.

Under these conditions, Master Luo Jing spoke up about the matter.

Meanwhile, hearing Master Luo Jing’s words, He Song felt a stir in his heart.

He had not expected

that after studying the various methods on the jade slip, he would hear Master Luo Jing saying this upon leaving his retreat.

But after thinking it over, He Song came to terms with it.

Refining Earth Vein Beads was not an easy task,

and the Earth Veins themselves were hard to find.

Many cultivators from great Sects were helpless regarding this and had to give up, seeking alternative paths.

Master Luo Jing was worried he would become resentful if he spent a long time unable to refine it,

which is why she came to explain as soon as he had studied the method for refining the Earth Vein Bead.

Her aim, of course, was clear to He Song.

However,

Master Luo Jing did not know

that He Song chose this method mainly because he already had an Earth Vein Bead on him.

As for the subsequent matters, they all went smoothly, so what was there to talk about not being able to refine it?

After understanding the deeper meaning behind Master Luo Jing’s words, He Song smiled inwardly.

Yet, on the surface, he showed no sign of it.

After hearing the words, he simply bowed slightly to Master Luo Jing and then said,

“This matters not, for although Earth Vein Beads are difficult to refine, I have had good luck with such things and have some confidence.”

“Nevertheless, I dare not forget what you have said.”

“Should there come a day when I truly wish to retract my decision, I shall certainly come to disturb you for guidance.”

“However,”

“the matter you previously mentioned, about joining the Treasure Pavilion and becoming a Guest Elder, is something I need to understand more about.”

“It is of great importance, and I need to know what is expected of me after becoming a Guest Elder of the Treasure Pavilion,”

“as well as what Secret Techniques I might need to be inscribed with, must also be made clear.”

“Upon leaving my retreat this time, I must request your enlightenment on the matter.”

For He Song, obtaining the Earth Vein Spirit Pearl was an absolute must;

naturally, he need not worry about its difficulty.

Therefore, he merely evaded the question for a bit before steering the conversation towards the matter of Master Luo Jing’s invitation to join the Treasure Pavilion.

As far as He Song was concerned, this was indeed a topic that could be discussed.

After all, Master Luo Jing was the Chief Master of the Treasure Pavilion in this region.

Her desire for He Song to join the Treasure Pavilion and become a guest elder surely wasn’t as simple as just wanting to have him join and become a guest elder.

There must be other reasons.

Otherwise, why hadn’t Master Luo Jing mentioned wanting He Song to join the Treasure Pavilion and become a guest elder before?

According to He Song’s speculation, there must be other reasons that he needed to uncover.

And the specific reasons could only be teased out by He Song himself.

In such circumstances, it was only natural for He Song to have a thorough discussion with Master Luo Jing about the matter.

The two had known each other for many years and could indeed discuss any matters that needed to be negotiated.

He Song had already prepared his thoughts on the subject.

So as he began to speak, he shared the thoughts in his mind with Master Luo Jing right in front of him.

The real meaning within his words

was, in fact, to tell Master Luo Jing to speak up if she had something to say.

If it was indeed possible, He Song truly would not mind becoming a guest elder of the Treasure Pavilion.

And as He Song’s voice reached the ears of Master Luo Jing,

a glimmer of light instantly appeared in her eyes.

Hearing He Song say so,

gave Master Luo Jing a glimmer of hope.

He Song was willing to address this matter directly,

and he clearly began to inquire about the various rights and obligations of a guest elder of the Treasure Pavilion.

In her eyes, this naturally represented that He Song had already given the idea some thought.

And as long as He Song entertained the idea,

then she would have a chance to make He Song truly become a guest elder of the Treasure Pavilion.

Upon keenly sensing this, Master Luo Jing did not delay and led them both to the place where they had previously conversed.

As the two of them took their seats, one after the other,

Master Luo Jing’s voice followed suit and rose.

“To be frank, fellow Daoist,”

“According to news from our Treasure Pavilion, warfare in the North may arise once again.”

“The three major demon sects neighboring the Wind Snow Palace seem to want to join forces to launch an attack on the palace.”

“Although this matter may seem nebulous, the source of the information is reliable, and I hope the fellow Daoist won’t spread the word.”

“This is a major issue.”

“Even though the Treasure Pavilion will not partake in this, my heart is still somewhat unsettled.”

“The state mansion in Cloud State was once breached by the God Locking Sect, and though those from the sect did not lay a fatal hand on the members of the Treasure Pavilion,”

“everything my Master experienced here remains etched in my heart.”

“Back when we were in fear, you comforted me multiple times, and I’ve kept it all in mind.”

“Therefore, I dared to invite the fellow Daoist to join the Treasure Pavilion and become a guest elder,”

“to face this matter together with me.”

“Rest assured, fellow Daoist, this matter poses hardly any danger.”

“The people of our Treasure Pavilion, even within areas controlled by diabolism, are unlikely to encounter any trouble.”

“However… it’s just that the events my Master previously went through have genuinely caused me much unease.”

“Hence, I wish for the fellow Daoist to stay here.”

“Together, the two of us might be able to provide mutual assistance.”

“However, rest assured, while warfare in the North is indeed on the horizon, with the Wind Snow Palace backed by many righteous sects, it’s not likely to be completely overrun.”

“Plus, the state mansion in Cloud State where you and I reside is within the area of influence of the Sun Faction, two states away from the battlefield.”

“Given this, the chances of the war spreading to this place are unlikely to be significant.”

“I hope you will seriously consider it.”

“As long as you become a guest elder of the Treasure Pavilion, all the benefits I’ve spoken of before are all indeed on offer.”

“Furthermore, you’ll only need to stay here with me, with no need to take part in the war or be subject to the orders of others.”

“Fellow Daoist is a guest elder personally recruited by Master Luo Jing, the Chief Master of the Treasure Pavilion in the Cloud State Mansion.”

“Even the masters of other pavilions in the Treasure Pavilion do not have the authority to order the fellow Daoist around.”
