However, Xiang Sheng walked quickly all the way and returned to the East Courtyard in less than a cup of tea.
She skillfully climbed back into the house through the back window, gently lowered the window with her backhand, held her breath and sensed for a moment. Seeing that she was not being spied on, she felt relieved and returned to sit on the bed.
"The heart moves with the will, and the sword follows the heart..."
While recalling the past, Xiang Sheng opened the Sword Manual and studied it for a while, his fingertips stopping at the four words "Sword and God Combined".
"Sword and spirit merge, leaving the sword intent behind. Is this... the fourth realm of the sword path?"
Xiang Sheng's eyes narrowed immediately. It turned out to be a deeper level of knowledge about the way of the sword. No wonder she was so moved.
What Lu Yushan said was very insightful, directly pointing out that she had seen the essence of the fourth realm. She had indeed gained a lot, and her thanks were well deserved.
But one thing at a time, it’s hard to say what the other party’s intentions are.
If there was no confirmation from this sword manual, if she lost her patience and tried to concentrate her mental strength, although she didn't know what the consequences would be, it would definitely not be a good thing.
…
The next morning.
Xiang Sheng ate breakfast absentmindedly.
Fourteen came over at this time as usual, wiped the sweat from his head and complained, "Sister Qinji made me run around so early in the morning. I'm exhausted!"
As he spoke, he picked up the tea on the table and poured it into his mouth.
Xiang Sheng paused with his chopsticks and suddenly asked, "Fourteen, have you ever heard of the name Lu Yushan?"
"puff!"
Fourteen almost spit out the entire drink he had taken, covered his throat and coughed twice, then looked up at Xiang Sheng with a glare, "Who are you talking about?"
"Lu Yushan."
Xiang Sheng said this while signaling Xiao Tao beside him with his eyes.
Xiao Tao immediately understood and led the servants to retreat.
Fourteen wiped his mouth with his sleeve, sat down and sighed, "My dear Miss Sheng, you have lived in Dangchen Peak for so long, and you don't even know who Lu Yushan is? He is our Dangchen Peak's true disciple!"
"True disciple?"
Xiang Sheng's heart trembled slightly. "Shouldn't a true disciple occupy a peak all to himself? Why is he on Dangchen Peak?"
"Did you meet him?"
Fourteen was immediately surprised and asked, "Where did I meet him? I heard that Senior Brother Lu lives in seclusion on Dangchen Peak and rarely appears in public. As for why he lives on Dangchen Peak, I heard that his cultivation level hasn't reached the Jindan stage yet. It was only because of his good spiritual roots that he was promoted to a True Disciple. After he reaches the Jindan stage, he will leave Dangchen Peak and establish his own sect."
"I see."
Xiang Sheng nodded slightly and changed the subject: "Any news on the matter I asked you to do?"
"No."
Fourteen shook his head. "I think you should go to the Sutra Library and give it a try. Maybe the essence condensed from the Scripture of Immortality can be exchanged for basic Five Elements spells?"
"I tried, but I couldn't change it."
Xiang Sheng sighed softly, "Never mind. This isn't a big deal. You don't have to keep an eye on it for me anymore. I'll find another way."
Fourteen scratched his head and said, "You want rootless water to make tea. Since you can't learn water spells, just go buy it."
"Um?"
Xiang Sheng's eyes narrowed, "Tianqing Pavilion even deals in rootless water?"
"Of course not."
Fourteen said helplessly, "It's Danquan. Danquan is also rootless water, and it's more fragrant when used to make tea than rootless water. Miss Sheng, you have been a member of the sect for several months. Can you read more common sense books? I know more than you by osmosis."
"I will watch it, but I don't have time recently."
Xiang Sheng smiled and said, "Go on."
"I see you just don't want to study."
Fourteen curled his lips and continued, "This matter is also related to Xuanwang City. I heard that when Senior Brother Shu was rewarding his merits in the main hall of the main peak, he was given a Mingjing Pill. It is a top-grade pill that can enhance the state of mind. It is full of spiritual power and must be refined immediately. It cannot be stored for a long time.
The elders of the Dan Palace purchased a large amount of top-grade Danquan to use in alchemy, but the supply from the Tianqing Pavilion was too expensive. The elders of the Dan Palace returned some of it because they thought it was too expensive, and it is now being sold in the pavilion.
"This sounds new."
Xiang Sheng showed an interested look, "I have never tasted tea made with the best Danquan. Go buy some for me."
"Miss Sheng, do you really want to buy it?"
Fourteen was astonished. "Even the Alchemy Palace thinks that thing is too expensive. One square costs thirty thousand low-grade spirit stones! Can we afford it?"
"Of course I can't afford a whole one, but making tea is just a taste of something new, not an elixir, so buying a pot is enough."
Xiang Sheng took out a bag of spirit stones and said, "Here are thirty spirit stones. Go and see if you can buy them. Remember not to tell Qin Ji."
"OK."
Fourteen put away the bag of spirit stones and said, "But I'll only help you hide it this once, and it won't happen again. Thirty low-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for three spirit pills. Just for a sip of tea, it's too extravagant."
Xiang Sheng smiled and nodded slightly: "I know, I know my limits."
"It's strange that you have any sense!"
Fourteen muttered, then stood up and said, "Then I'll go down the mountain now."
Xiang Sheng nodded lightly, and after watching Fourteen leave, a hint of contemplation flashed across his eyes.
Last night, she carefully looked through the storage rings again and actually found a spell called "Water Element Cone". However, it was a mid-grade spell that could only be cast with the true essence of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Lu Yushan has an unfathomable personality and seems easy to talk to, but it may not be easy to get water magic from him.
Fortunately, Fourteen was clever and suggested using Danquan instead. Although it would cost more spirit stones, it was still a good idea in the short term.
In this way, there is no need to go to Lu Yushan anymore.
There was also common sense in cultivation, such as Danquan, which she lacked. However, as long as Xiang Hongyu's matter remained unresolved, how could she calm down? It wouldn't be too late to wait until she overcame the difficulties before seeing what was happening.
