In recent days, Lin Qing has been in high spirits.
So ti ago, he finally acquired the Foundation Establishnt Realm Cultivator’s treasure he had been planning for many days. After returning to the Sect, he participated in the Heart Refining Road and was promoted to Inner Sect Disciple.
Reborn into this life, many things that he couldn’t do before due to his status could finally be put on the agenda.
With the enhancent of various Cultivation resources, his cultivation was also gradually approaching Level 9 Qi Refining.
If he was lucky, he might even have a chance to Breakthrough within this year.
"No matter what the ultimate fate of the Cave Abyss Sect is, there are a few great Opportunities in the Inner Sect that I must seize, no matter what."
He secretly calculated in his mind: "The Sect Grand Competition is one..."
"If the situation doesn’t change, then an Elder will soon announce that the restrictions on Inner and Outer Sect Disciples will be lifted for this Sword Wiping Assembly..."
"The rewards are also extraordinary. If I can win a ranking, I can even participate in the Nine Pulses Grand Competition of Dragon Pool Mountain."
"The second is the Dao Child’s Forr Residence, which will appear in Junping Prefecture several years later, at the border between the Central Region and the Chu Kingdom."
He had heard of the Bei Ya Mountain Flower Festival he was going to attend in a few days in his previous life.
He figured it was just to join in the fun and wouldn’t yield any substantial gains.
"..."
"However... these all require long-term planning."
"Right now, there’s a great Opportunity right in front of !"
Inside the Mission Hall, Lin Qing’s eyes flickered as he carefully examined every mission and commission floating on it.
"Pear Blossom Wine..."
"..."
He kept searching for terms related to wine, pear blossoms, and such.
In his previous life.
A surprising major event once circulated within the Cave Abyss Sect.
An Inner Sect Disciple received a very strange commission.
The requirent was to retrieve three jars of pear blossom wine from a certain tavern in Feng’an County and bring them back to the Sect.
The publisher of the commission was nad "Qingrou."
The commission reward was only twenty Spirit Stones.
Logically speaking, it was normal.
Perhaps it was a Fellow Daoist in the Sect who enjoyed drinking and wanted to taste the wine from his hotown, but had important Sect duties and couldn’t go in person, hence this commission.
Just helping to run an errand, twenty Spirit Stones was actually quite a lot.
But perhaps the publisher wasn’t very familiar with the "commission" business.
For Qi Refining Stage Cultivators, Inner Sect Disciples were already Late Stage Qi Refining Cultivators, and there were many ways to earn Spirit Stones without leaving their hos.
Feng’an County was actually so distance from the Sect.
Below the Foundation Establishnt Realm, it was difficult to fly with a sword, which was quite ti-consuming.
And Inner Sect Cultivators above the Foundation Establishnt Realm, why would they specially go out for these twenty Spirit Stones?
If it were placed in the Outer Sect Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, this mission would probably be snatched up.
The Inner Sect Disciple who took the mission in his previous life was originally from Feng’an, and because he had been in closed-door Cultivation in the Sect during the New Year, he had not returned ho.
Now, on the second day of the second month, when the Dragon raises its head, he took this strange commission to visit relatives in his hotown and pick up wine to earn so Spirit Stones.
Who would have thought that for such a strange mission...
The publisher "Qingrou" was actually that Golden Core Great Power of the Sect, the Sect Master Fellow Daoist Li Jun?
So, when luck cos, anyone can have an "Opportunity."
Later, the news was leaked from who knows where, and even the signboard and specific location of that tavern were widely spread throughout the Sect.
All because of such a simple mission, in addition to the twenty Low-Grade Spirit Stones specified in the commission... there was also a Dao-Protecting Sword Talisman personally sealed by Fellow Daoist Li Jun.
Others might not know Fellow Daoist Li Jun’s cultivation, but Lin Qing, having lived another life, wouldn’t he know?
An ordinary Golden Core Realm?
How could that be?
Golden Core Great Perfection!
Half-step Nascent Soul Realm!
It’s just that Fellow Daoist Li Jun doesn’t like to move; otherwise, wouldn’t this Chu Kingdom be his to roam freely?
The value of such a Dao-Protecting Sword Talisman personally refined by such a Great Power is imasurable.
Leaving aside other things, just consider the day the Profound Origin Sect ca to cause trouble.
With a casual sword strike, he split the clouds and divided the river, covering the sky and obscuring the sun.
The Sword Qi within the Dao-Protecting Sword Talisman would certainly be no worse than that sword strike.
Thinking of this, Lin Qing’s gaze grew even more fervent.
This could be considered a great Opportunity!
Suddenly!
His gaze narrowed, and he finally found this commission, almost hidden in a corner.
Because he had prepared early, when he left the Sect on a previous occasion, he had already gone to that tavern in advance and bought three jars of pear blossom wine.
In the Mortal world, it was indeed a very famous tavern.
The signboard had been passed down through generations.
Especially the pear blossom wine, with its long-lasting aroma and sweet taste, was less astringent than many other wines.
The shopkeeper would tell everyone that even the immortal maidens in heaven had praised how delicious this wine was.
At this mont, the three jars of pear blossom wine were stored in his qiankun bag.
After accepting the commission, Lin Qing imdiately left the Mission Hall and walked towards the handover location ntioned in the commission.
After bypassing Dragon Head Peak, he arrived outside a secluded mountain valley.
However, a thin mist enveloped the outside of the valley. Lin Qing naturally recognized it as a mountain-protecting illusion array.
In his previous life, there was no information about this handover location.
Lin Qing didn’t know what this place within the Sect was used for.
He only knew that Fellow Daoist Li Jun often ca here.
"Inner Sect Disciple Lin Qing, here to hand over the commissioned items..."
He announced his na, and to create the impression of "not knowing the truth," he forcibly changed "Disciple Lin Qing" to "Inner Sect Lin Qing."
"Fellow Daoist..."
Buzz—
There was no response, but the Jade Slip slowly flew out of his qiankun bag, emitting a erald green spiritual light.
It landed in his hand.
"..."
After a mont of contemplation, Lin Qing tried to step into the mountain valley.
He walked quickly along the stream valley path.
He arrived in front of a stone wall.
He saw a young man in white robes sitting in front of a bluestone tablet.
Lin Qing’s heart tightened.
This person was the Sect Master of Cave Abyss Sect, Fellow Daoist Li Jun.
Chen Linyuan!
The young man’s face was gentle and kind, and he smiled as he waved at him: "Co."
Lin Qing steeled himself and walked forward.
"This... Senior."
Chen Linyuan was intrigued: "How do you know I’m a Senior?"
"Junior cannot discern your cultivation..."
He nodded.
He said: "Where’s the wine?"
Lin Qing quickly took out three jars of pear blossom wine from his qiankun bag and carefully placed them in front of the bluestone tombstone.
Chen Linyuan uncovered one of them and gently sniffed the wine.
"Hmm, as expected of the Drunken Immortal Inn’s pear blossom wine. It’s no different from many years ago."
Under the pear blossom tree, he filled the two empty bowls.
"Actually, I’ve tried the art of winemaking myself, but I’ve never found the right thod and can’t brew that taste."
"In this aspect, I’m not even as good as a Mortal, haha..."
He muttered a few words to himself, not sure who he was talking to.
"Here, these are twenty Spirit Stones."
Then a small bag of Spirit Stones was thrown over from a distance.
Lin Qing caught it with both hands.
"..."
After a mont, Chen Linyuan asked: "What is the old alley of Drunken Immortal Inn in Feng’an like now?"
Lin Qing hadn’t actually paid much attention to the surrounding scenery at the ti.
However, the Senior might be nostalgic, so a rough estimate would be fine.
"It’s still the sa. That day when I went to get wine, I encountered a market, and it was crowded and very lively."
"However, a new county magistrate ca to Feng’an a few days ago, and I heard that so dilapidated old houses near Drunken Immortal Inn are going to be demolished."
Lin Qing tried to make his words sound natural and relaxed.
Chen Linyuan nodded, a look of reminiscence appearing in his eyes.
Lin Qing quietly stood by, waiting for this Great Power of the Golden Core Peak Realm to bestow that precious sword talisman that would ensure his safe passage through his entire Foundation Establishnt Realm.
"If in this life, the general trend is still irreversible..."
"With this sword talisman, I can also leave the Cave Abyss Sect, and even leave the Chu Kingdom to go to the Central Region!"
"The world is vast, where can I not go?"
Thinking of this, Lin Qing’s heart was ablaze.
However, the developnt of events seed... a little different from what he had imagined.
In front of the tombstone, Chen Linyuan suddenly looked up, sharp Sword Qi seemingly flowing in his eyes.
His expression was inexplicably curious.
"Little Friend..."
"What makes you so happy..."
He gazed at Lin Qing’s astonished eyes, his gaze seeming to see through people’s hearts.
His mind was severely shaken. Before he could open his mouth to explain, a powerful pressure swept over him.
"What are you waiting for to give you?"
Under the mysterious pressure of those eyes, Lin Qing discovered with terror that he was slowly speaking uncontrollably.
