Chapter 9



Chapter 9

There was no movement above.

For a moment, Jitang thought he had guessed wrong.

Could it be that Su Jinzhou was looking for the Green Jade Meditation Bell just to give it to his disciples?

It won’t really be just a decoration!

Although that thing emits a faint light at night and looks icy and crystal clear, which good thing Su Jinzhou has ever seen is not better than the Green Jade Meditation Bell?

So she guessed that Su Jinzhou took her magic weapon most likely because of the nightmare.

He failed in overcoming the tribulation and his cultivation level regressed somewhat.

One of the fastest ways to return to the peak is to absorb the spiritual power of other high-level cultivators and use it for your own benefit.

The two people with the highest cultivation level in the world are her and Su Jinzhou. Absorbing her pure nightmare energy will be of the greatest help to Su Jinzhou.

The Nightmare Lord is already "dead". Obtaining the Nightmare Lord's magic weapon and absorbing the nightmare energy does not count as committing a sin of killing.

Moreover, her nightmare energy is extremely pure. It can eliminate the nightmare clan, and is effective for human cultivators, and even for enhancing the cultivation of demons and monsters. All one needs to do is transform the nightmare energy and absorb it.

There is not much nightmare energy left on the Green Jade Meditation Bell. If Su Jinzhou uses this method, she will definitely continue to collect more magic weapons she has used.

The reason why Jitang thought so was related to the changes in Su Jinzhou.

His condition was obviously affected by something. Perhaps it was because he absorbed her nightmare energy but had not yet transformed it into his own, which is why he looked like this.

This is also the reason why she tried every means to enter the Su Jinzhou magic cave to find out the truth.

She wanted to see the magic weapons that Su Jinzhou had collected, so that she could estimate how much nightmare energy he had absorbed.

Now that she was close to Su Jinzhou, she could feel a slight hint of nightmare from him.

But it is very thin. Even if Su Jinzhou does nothing, the nightmare energy will still dissipate at night.

This further confirmed her guess.

Ji Tang used this as an opportunity and tried to find a way to stay in Qianli Yanbo.

But Su Jinzhou remained silent for so long that she had to wonder if she had guessed wrong.

She really wanted to look up and see Su Jinzhou's expression, but because of the two spiritual powers she had received before, she had to endure it.

Su Jinzhou took a step forward.

"magic weapon."

There's hope!

Jitang casually took out a magic weapon from his storage bag, and was stunned when he took a look at it.

It turned out to be a glowing ring.

"..." Jitang quickly glanced upwards, "This..."

Why did she take out this ring when she could have taken out anything else?

She should have used her spiritual sense to scan the storage bag before taking it out. Now, she took the most useless thing.

The Fluorescent Ring is neither an offensive magic weapon nor a defensive magic weapon, but a gadget purely for pleasing girls.

The ring can be activated by injecting nightmare energy or spiritual power, and then a faint light will fall within thirty or forty feet centered on the ring.

The falling light does not dissipate immediately, but forms a sea of light around it, which is very beautiful at night.

When she was in Jiu Mingyuan, she used this ring as a lighting tool to tend to the flower garden at night.

Speaking of which, this ring has been with her for a long time, and the nightmare aura is quite acceptable, a little more than the nightmare aura on the Green Jade Meditation Bell.

But giving this to Su Jinzhou always feels a bit awkward.

The ring on Jitang's palm floated up and flew in front of Su Jinzhou.

Su Jinzhou took the ring in his hand.

Ji Tang could only say, "Immortal Venerable, this is the Glowing Flowing Light Ring used by Nightmare Venerable. I haven't absorbed the Nightmare Qi from it yet. Although it's not a useful magic weapon, looking at the Nightmare Qi..."

"Where did you get it?" Su Jinzhou still didn't listen to her.

"Oh," she made up, "I once ate a monk's dream and took away the monk's storage bag, and found it inside."

The Jiuming Tower was completely looted, and four hundred years have passed. Her magic weapons must be scattered all over the place now.

Even if it wasn't the group of cultivators who went to her Jiuming Tower that year, it might have been obtained by other cultivators over the long years.

She is not afraid of being exposed.

In order to stay in Qianli Yanbo, Jitang added, "I can also help the Immortal Venerable find more Nightmare Venerable's magic weapons. We, the Nightmare Clan, are very sensitive to Nightmare Qi, so it would be much easier than asking your disciples to search for it! I can also ask my clansmen for information on Nightmare Venerable's magic weapons, which will definitely be of help to the Immortal Venerable!"

Ji Tang raised his eyes, saw his sharp gaze, and lowered his head again.

Su Jinzhou held the ring tightly, "What do you want?"

Ji Tang thought about it and came up with something that matched what Little Nightmare said, "Would the Immortal Lord allow me to use the dreams of outer disciples to practice? I only consume natural dreams and will never interfere... uh..."

Su Jinzhou's eyes shot out like ice.

Ji Tang immediately changed his words: "I will never consume the dreams of outer disciples, never!"

An idea suddenly occurred to her, "I wonder if the Immortal Venerable could give me some elixirs for cultivation?"

Jitang is exactly what he needs.

Su Jinzhou flicked his sleeves, and Ji Tang saw the barrier of a cave beside him disappear.

She was so blessed that she bowed to Su Jinzhou and said, "Thank you, Immortal Lord, for the medicine!"

This means she's staying.

Jitang left Qianli Yanbo and went back to the outer gate to have dinner with Yang Xiaoluan.

Yang Xiaoluan was waiting in the Qizhai Building, and there were already three dishes and a soup on the table.

"How was the delivery of the letter?" Yang Xiaoluan poured her tea.

Ji Tang thanked him and said, "Most of them have been delivered. The rest will be delivered in the afternoon."

Yang Xiaoluan said, "Junior sister, you've worked so hard. Your coming here has saved me a lot of effort!"

Ji Tang grabbed the teapot and poured tea for Yang Xiaoluan, "Brother, I have something to tell you."

Yang Xiaoluan took the teacup and drank it in one gulp. "What's the matter?"

Jitang poured him another seven points, "I'm going to Qianli Yanbo to do some work later."

Yang Xiaoluan had just picked up the chopsticks when he heard these words, and the chopsticks broke into two pieces.

Jitang: “…”

"Where are you talking about?" Yang Xiaoluan asked again in disbelief, holding the broken chopsticks in his voice.

Ji Tang took the broken chopsticks from his hand and gave him a new pair before saying, "Thousand Miles of Smoke and Waves."

The chopsticks broke again.

Jitang didn't plan to buy him a new one.

Yang Xiaoluan stared with his eyes wide open and opened his mouth. He remained silent for a long moment before he asked uncertainly in a low voice, "Is it the sacred peak I know?" He threw down his chopsticks and moved closer to Ji Tang across the table. "By the way, by the way, by the way..."

Ji Tang: "Bian Jing Immortal Venerable."

She stood up and pointed to the cloud-sea pattern token tied around her waist.

This was the token Su Jinzhou had thrown to her before she left. With this token, she could freely enter and exit Qianli Yanbo.

Yang Xiaoluan: “Burp!”

Ji Tang extended his index finger, pressed it against his forehead and pushed him back, "Brother, you're too close."

Yang Xiaoluan: "Burp! Excuse me! Junior Sister..."

He drank the tea in one gulp, but still felt it was not enough, so he poured himself three more cups and finally stopped hiccups.

"No disciples have entered Qianli Yanbo for hundreds of years. Not to mention disciples, even the masters from other spiritual peaks rarely enter Qianli Yanbo."

He held up two fingers and said, "Only the two masters from Qiongxu Peak and Yunxia Peak go there more often. Oh, that's the Lingfeng where Senior Brothers Lang Yu and Tan Wen are."

Ji Tang: "Hundreds of years? How long is that?"

It couldn't have started four hundred years ago.

Su Jinzhou stopped recruiting disciples in order to absorb the nightmare energy?

"...I can't remember exactly, maybe three or four hundred years?" Yang Xiaoluan was shocked. "How could you be assigned there? This is a golden opportunity! That's the sacred peak of Immortal Venerable Bian Jing!!"

The more Jitang thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. He spared some energy and replied, "Yeah, I think so too. I lost my way while delivering a letter today and met the Immortal Venerable. After paying my respects, I offered myself to join Qianli Yanbo, and the Immortal Venerable agreed."

She avoided the important issues.

Yang Xiaoluan was filled with envy: "It's so difficult for us to see the Immortal Lord, it's like ascending to heaven! You're so lucky, you just came to the sect and went straight to Qianli Yanbo to work. I'm so envious of you!"

Ji Tang reminded: "I'm going to Qianli Yanbo to do some work, so you will be alone in Xin Pavilion for the time being... This is what I want to tell you."

Yang Xiaoluan was stunned for a moment and was overwhelmed with grief.

He forgot about it!

Yang Xiaoluan was shocked and sad during the meal, and left in a daze, like a wandering soul.

Jitang went to Wansong Tower to find Sun Qichou.

When enemies meet, they become jealous of each other.

Sun Qichou turned around and shouted to the back door, "Little Pig, come here!"

The corners of Jitang's mouth were stretched into a straight line.

The little black pig grunted as he ran in. When he saw Jitang, he squeaked, obviously frightened.

Ji Tang said sarcastically, "Senior Sun, are you raising pigs or rats?"

Sun Qichou glared at him, "You little brat! I haven't even settled the score with you for the spirit stones and the piglet being intimidated, and now you're bullying my spirit pig first!"

The little black pig took advantage of the others' power and hummed along.

Jitang raised his eyebrows and took a step closer.

The little black pig was so scared that it stepped back repeatedly, its front and back hooves fighting with each other, and it turned over.

Ji Tang looked at Sun Qichou and said, "Senior, please take a good look at me. Besides looking happy, what else about me that gives you the illusion that I resemble this little thing?"

Sun Qichou suddenly laughed when he heard this and said, "So this is what the little kid is angry about."

He hooked his finger, and the little black pig with its belly turned up was lifted up by spiritual power and floated to Sun Qichou's hand.

Sun Qichou poked the pig's body and said, "Black."

Then he pointed at Jitang: "It's also black."

The corners of Jitang's taut mouth twitched.

He nodded at the pig's face again, "Yeah, big nose and small eyes."

Then he raised his chin towards Jitang.

Jitang clenched his fist.

Sun Qichou pointed at the little black pig from head to tail, "It's short and stubby."

He clapped his hands, looked at Jitang, and said happily: "It's short too!"

Ji Tang resisted the urge to knock him over, and in his heart he gave Sun Qichou a harsh stroke.

She smiled wryly, "Senior Sun, enough of the small talk, let's get down to business."

She told him the purpose of her visit.

Sun Qichou's expression was calm, but his eyes betrayed him.

Like Yang Xiaoluan, he asked tentatively, "Immortal Venerable Bian Jing?"

Jitang Ti Ti Cloud Sea Token.

Sun Qichou no longer had the heart to play with the pig. The little black pig was placed steadily on the ground and ran away grunting.

Sun Qichou walked back to the desk and searched for a long time among the wooden compartments filled with books before he pulled out a dusty record book.

There are only a few pages with words on them.

Sun Qichou glanced at her, turned to a new page, dipped his brush in ink, and wrote neatly on it.

February 20th, the 5926th year of Qingyu.

Nine waters deep, late stage of consecration.

After he finished writing this one, he took out another one from his hand.

This time Jitang saw it clearly. The cover said Qingbai Tower, nine volumes.

Sun Qichou turned to the last few pages of the record book, found Jitang's name, marked it after it, and added a few more words: Qianli Yanbo.

"Thank you, Senior Sun."

Jitang left after saying this.

Sun Qichou closed the record book, patted the dusty one, and seemed to be thinking about something.

*

Although Jitang went to Qianli Yanbo from Xin Pavilion, he still had to participate in the sect assessment.

The Suxuan Sect opens its gates every two years to recruit potential disciples.

This year it is scheduled for early March.

Ji Tang arrived at Qianli Yanbo early. She stood outside Su Jinzhou's cave and bowed, "Immortal Lord!"

There was no response from the cave, so she was not in a hurry.

He continued, "Immortal Venerable, I will be taking the sect assessment in about ten days, but I am using Nightmare Qi, which will give me away during this assessment. I beg you to grant me a treasure, so that I can better find Nightmare Magical Weapons for you in the future."

She can disguise the nightmare energy as spiritual power, but she is in the late stage of cultivation, so there will still be risks if she encounters those with higher cultivation in the sect.

She also didn't want to waste her spiritual power in such a small place. After thinking about it, she came to find Su Jinzhou.

Something fell on the lawn in front of Jitang.

She picked it up and looked at it. It was an icy jade bracelet.

Su Jinzhou would definitely not explain anything to her. She put on the jade bracelet and adjusted it to the right size according to her wrist.

Ji Tang casually named it the Ice-Transmitting Bracelet and tried to circulate the nightmare energy. The nightmare energy that should have appeared around him turned into spiritual power.

Su Jinzhou had no fewer good things than when she was Yan Zun. Since it was given by him, she was not worried about the effectiveness of the bracelet.

She turned the bracelet with satisfaction. She thought Su Jinzhou was too lazy to use his spiritual power to look at her, so she casually bowed towards the cave and said, "Thank you, Immortal Venerable, for the treasure!"

In the cave, Su Jinzhou's voice said coldly: "Remember what you should do."

Ji Tang subconsciously touched the storage bag. The magic weapons inside were enough for her to use for a while. She was very determined: "Yes, I will definitely live up to the trust of the Immortal Master."

She elevated herself and used the word "heavy trust".

Su Jinzhou was silent again. Ji Tang knew this would happen, so he took advantage of it by saying a few words.
