That's incredibly specific; they even noted the exact size.
Shi Mingxiu had a feeling that he had known all along. If he had known, he would have distributed the rewards directly after returning to the sect. Why did he have to ask her?
It's just a shop, nothing particularly valuable, so giving it away is fine. He was just a little curious, though; perhaps Shi Xuan had already scouted out where the Seventh Largest Shop was located?
"Why must it be the seventh largest shop?" Shi Mingxiu asked.
Shi Xuan smiled and said, "Our sect has six peaks, and we must reserve a large one for each peak."
This reason left Shi Mingxiu speechless, unsure how to refute it. Thinking back to what she had mentioned earlier about Chen Ji and his son, it turned out that even the shopkeeper had prepared this in advance.
What else could we do but agree?

The spirit boat traveled very fast, and within an afternoon, it entered the territory of the Lianfeng Sword Sect.
The sun was about to set, casting a soft, warm light.
Shi Xuan and several fellow disciples stood on the deck of the spirit boat, enjoying the scenery and chatting. The main peak of the Lianfeng Sword Sect was already faintly visible.
"Hey," Zhu Jingchen, with his sharp eyes, suddenly pointed ahead and said, "It looks like someone is flying towards us on a sword."
The group looked in the direction he was pointing, and a small black dot gradually grew larger as it approached.
"Judging from the direction they came from, they must be disciples from one of our sects," Gu Liangce said.
Lu Wenxing stared at the man for a while. "He seems a bit chubby. His build looks a bit like your fourth senior brother. But it shouldn't be him. He's been a disciple for several years and still hasn't learned how to fly a sword."
As he finished speaking, the person who had arrived on a sword came close enough to see his face clearly. To everyone's astonishment, it really was He Weiqing, Shi Xuan's fourth senior brother!
"Holy crap! It really is him!" Lu Wenxing jumped up in surprise. "What earth-shattering thing happened while we were away that could send someone who's rooted in the earth flying into the sky!"
As they spoke, the person drew closer and closer until he flew above the spirit boat, sheathed his flying sword, and landed beside them.
Seeing so many people present, He Weiqing felt very embarrassed. He scratched his head, and before he could even speak, his face turned red.
Lu Wenxing couldn't hold back any longer. He pulled He Weiqing up and down and looked him over, exclaiming, "What's wrong? Huh? How did you suddenly learn to fly on a sword? I taught you so many times before and you kept saying you were scared. Why aren't you scared now?"
He Weiqing was still scratching his head. He looked at Shi Xuan, then turned to his second senior brother and smiled shyly, "Thank you, thank you, junior sister."
"Why are you thanking her? She went out with us, and you clearly didn't know how to do it before we left." Lu Wenxing asked, still holding his hand.
He Weiqing blushed and couldn't say anything.
"You've learned it so quickly? What about my reputation?!" Lu Wenxing couldn't understand why He Weiqing could fly on a sword so suddenly. He had tried to teach him before and couldn't teach him no matter what. He felt extremely frustrated and had no choice but to give up.
Shi Xuan roughly knew what was going on. Seeing that the two of them had finished talking, he stepped forward, patted He Weiqing on the shoulder, and praised him, "I knew I hadn't misjudged Fourth Senior Brother. Most things in this world are not as difficult as you imagine. As long as you dare to try, you will find that they are all achievable, right?"
He Weiqing was clearly very happy; he was more active than usual, nodding repeatedly as Shi Xuan spoke.
"Don't limit yourself. I'll still be counting on my fourth senior brother to protect me in the future," Shi Xuan said with a smile. Her fourth senior brother was top-notch in talent, but he was somewhat lacking in character. He was timid and shy, and even his cultivation was somewhat obstructed.
If you don't limit yourself, nothing is so difficult; learning sword control is the best proof of that. Thinking this, He Weiqing felt that her junior sister seemed to possess an invisible power that made everything easy for her.
His junior sister is right, he can do it too. For example, the cultivation bottleneck that has plagued him for two years…
As if something had suddenly become clear, He Weiqing felt a lightness in his body, and the surrounding spiritual energy surged in. The barrier of the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection stage had actually broken just like that...
"Oh no, he's about to form his core!" Lu Wenxing exclaimed in surprise. "Did this kid come here specifically to summon lightning to destroy our sect's spirit boat?"
He Weiqing was stunned for a moment before he realized what had happened. The Golden Core Tribulation would trigger heavenly lightning, and there were so many people and spirit boats here. He absolutely could not form his core here... He quickly took off on his sword again and rushed towards the back mountain of the sect.
“Let’s go and take a look,” Shi Xuan patted Lu Wenxing’s arm, “and also let Master know via telepathy.”
Lu Wenxing quickly agreed, took out a communication talisman to send a message to Lin Daozi, and then flew towards He Weiqing's direction with Shi Xuan on his sword.
Core formation is a major event for cultivators; many people cultivate their entire lives without ever achieving it. However, it also comes with considerable risks; a single strike of heavenly lightning could be fatal.
Perhaps He Weiqing had been accumulating experience for too long, because this breakthrough came extremely quickly. Before they even reached the back mountain, the tribulation clouds had already caught up.
He had no choice but to find a nearby open space, sit cross-legged, and take out the talismans and magical artifacts he had prepared to deal with the heavenly lightning. His master had prepared these things for him two years ago, but who knew that he would only be able to use them today.
Before long, Lin Daozi also arrived in a hurry. Seeing that He Weiqing had already entered the breakthrough stage, he sat on the outer edge to protect him.
Whether it was because it had been accumulating for too long or because the fourth senior brother was too talented, the tribulation lightning came with great force, and the tribulation cloud above his head was so thick that it seemed like it was about to fall down at any moment.
Suddenly, a bolt of lightning pierced through the clouds and struck He Weiqing directly. He was stunned for a moment, but gritted his teeth and endured it. But before he could catch his breath and recover, a second bolt of lightning struck him head-on.
Seeing the heavenly lightning grow more and more intense, Lin Daozi couldn't help but show a worried expression. He realized that he hadn't prepared enough for his fourth disciple.
Shi Xuan also noticed something was wrong; it seemed that his fourth senior brother's tribulation was far too fierce, much more powerful than that of ordinary cultivators.
If this continues, it could be dangerous.
In a flash, Shi Xuan suddenly wondered if all things could also absorb the power of this lightning tribulation.
Whether it's possible or not, try it and you'll know.
So Shi Xuan took a few steps forward, sat down close to the edge of the thundercloud, closed his eyes slightly, took over the previously passively operating Myriad Life, and urged it to touch the residual power of the thunder tribulation.
It's here! As expected of the Creator of All Things, the moment the power of lightning was absorbed, Shi Xuan experienced a tingling sensation unlike anything he had ever felt before. It wasn't until this tingling power was transformed by the Creator of All Things in its operation that it became his own spiritual power and flowed into his spiritual palace.
It works! Shi Xuan then increased the operating speed of the myriad things, and as the thunder accumulated and fell, the myriad things followed closely and clung to it.
