In just the ti it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Ding Yixuan’s complexion regained so color.
The Spiritual Power within him appeared a faint cyan.
This is the special effect of his Dao Foundation Spirit Sea fused with the Spiritual Power of the Divine Hidden Sea Technique.
"Being a water cultivator too, the healing recovery effect of the Divine Hidden Sea Technique is even better!"
Shen Xuan thought to himself silently.
His Spiritual Power was unique.
Not only did it have healing and nourishing effects,
but it could also attach various bloodline talents.
While infusing the Spiritual Power of the Divine Hidden Sea Technique, Shen Xuan also perford the Perfect Level Self-Healing Technique.
Only then could Ding Yixuan’s injuries heal so quickly.
He gratefully looked at Shen Xuan.
At this mont, Ding Yixuan could clearly feel his bodily functions rapidly recovering, filled with vitality and vigor.
"As expected of a direct disciple of a great sect’s true master, Shen Talisman Master’s skills are miraculous and unimaginable!"
Ding Yixuan’s eyes were full of excitent.
Almost on the verge of becoming a cripple!
A fate worse than death!
Now, he could clearly feel his injuries gradually improving.
Afterward, Shen Xuan took out a Nine Revolutions Life Extension Pill.
This is the best healing spirit pill exchanged within the Cyan Cloud Sect, Tier Two Middle Grade.
Strictly forbidden to be sold outside.
With his Perfect Self-Healing Technique, Shen Xuan rarely needed it.
Yet he still prepared a bottle for ergencies.
Shen Xuan let Ding Yixuan swallow it, and used Spiritual Power to refine the dicinal power of the Nine Revolutions Life Extension Pill.
When Ding Yixuan activated his energy again, his entire body trembled, and sweat poured down like rain.
A painful expression appeared on his face.
"Endure it!"
Shen Xuan said lightly, "Breaking the old to create the new, there’s a bit of pain."
An hour later.
"You may co in!"
Upon hearing Shen Xuan’s voice, Ding Yijin could hardly wait to enter the room.
At this ti, although Ding Yixuan was still lying in bed, his complexion was much better.
"Rest for two days, and you’ll recover seventy to eighty percent."
"The Dao Foundation Spirit Sea has recovered well and will not affect future breakthroughs."
Hearing this, Ding Yijin was overjoyed, "Shen Talisman Master’s great benevolence and virtue, the entire Ding family will never forget!"
Seeing Ding Yixuan’s miraculous change, Ding Yijin felt as if he was dreaming.
Not long ago.
Ding Yixuan was still in a critically ill, dying state.
On the verge of falling from the Foundation Establishnt Realm, Transforming Spirit into Mortality.
In just a little more than an hour.
Ding Yixuan’s injuries were fifty percent healed.
In two days, he could recover seventy to eighty percent.
Even the Dao Foundation Spirit Sea was perfectly restored.
Such ans made him both surprised and delighted.
Looking again at the familiar Shen Talisman Master, he could not help but show a hint of reverence in his eyes.
Matters that many Foundation Establishnt dical cultivators found helpless,
in Shen Talisman Master’s hands, seed like trivial issues easily resolved with a casual move.
This was a true prodigy from their Cyan Dragon Bay Market!
Many years ago, when Shen Xuan broke through to the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer, the Ding family wanted to marry him into the family.
Unfortunately, they missed the opportunity.
Marrying a mundane girl from the Ding family to Shen Xuan was a fortunate stroke among the misfortunes.
If not for this relationship,
Shen Xuan would not have helped, and the Ding family would have long ceased to exist.
Outside the small room.
The three elders of the Ding family were still waiting for news.
Ding Yixuan had the potential to break through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishnt, key to the Ding family’s resurgence.
When they entered the small room and saw Ding Yixuan’s injuries greatly improved, the look in their eyes toward Shen Xuan was one of utter shock.
They expected Shen Xuan could heal Ding Yixuan,
but for such therapeutic effects in such a short ti, it greatly impressed them.
This turtle talisman master, Shen Xuan, whom they had heard legendary tales of,
no one expected it.
Fifty years later, their Ding family survived because of him.
"A disciple of a great sect, a true master’s disciple, truly possesses heaven-reaching ans!"
"Our Ding family was not destined for doom! With Shen Talisman Master as a distinguished helper, how could the family not prosper!"
"I say, the old patriarch made a mistake back then! Had we recruited Shen Talisman Master into our clan, how could our Ding family have fallen to this extent!"
"Was it that the old patriarch didn’t want to? It was Shen Talisman Master who didn’t want to!"
"That was because, at that ti, Shen Talisman Master suddenly realized and advanced as a Tier One Middle Grade Talisman Master. Had it been earlier, surely Shen Talisman Master would have agreed."
"Yes, he even married our Ding’s mundane girl! If it were a young, beautiful female cultivator from the Ding family, surely Shen Talisman Master would agree."
Shen Xuan heard with a black line over his head.
The three elders of the Ding family whispered outside the small room.
However, he currently had the Ears Listening in All Directions skill, and like Insight and Sharp-eyed, was continuously and actively cast, making his hearing extrely keen.
The words spoken by the three elders of the Ding family reached his ears without missing a word.
Shen Xuan said softly, "Patriarch Ding, let them in, I have sothing to say."
Soon.
The room returned to silence.
Shen Xuan looked at the Ding brothers and the three elders.
"The price of my intervention this ti was not small. What do you, the Ding family, have in mind?"
At these words, Ding Yijin carefully took out a small jade green seal from his Storage Pouch.
"This is the ancestral Patriarch’s Seal of the Ding family, I invite Shen Talisman Master to accept it. The entire Ding family of one hundred and twenty-eight cultivators will all obey the command, none dare to disobey."
Shen Xuan waved his hand and said, "Patriarch Ding, there’s no need, take it back, that’s not what I an."
"I ca here because of the consideration for my wife, just to make a visit."
"Exerting so Spiritual Power and a Tier Two Middle Grade Spirit Pill is no big deal."
"It’s just that the Red Rainbow Sect already holds prejudice against . Having thwarted their plans, they will hold even greater animosity towards in the future."
"Patriarch Ding seems so urgent, could it be that your Ding family is about to be abandoned by the Celestial Skill Sect?"
Ding Yijin looked ashad.
"Just as Shen Talisman Master said. I, Ding, lack the ability, lack the strength, caught in a dilemma, and ashad before the ancestors of the Ding family!"
In fact, this situation was entirely within Shen Xuan’s expectations.
Ding Yijin leveraged the power of the Celestial Skill Sect to return to Cyan Dragon Bay and reclaim half of the Spiritual Land.
At first, the Celestial Skill Sect needed the Ding family as a front.
More than thirty years have passed.
The Celestial Skill Sect and the Red Rainbow Sect have reached a tacit agreent to share the benefits of the Celestial Derivation Copper Ore.
The Ding Family, as a facade, has beco an abandoned piece and can now disappear.
There is no second path to choose.
When borrowing the power of the Celestial Skill Sect, Ding Yijin should have had this realization.
Negotiating with a tiger requires sufficient strength.
Clearly, with just Ding Yijin and Ding Yixuan, two Early Stage Foundation Establishnt cultivators, the Ding Family is not qualified to join the table.
Ding Yijin forced his way into Foundation Establishnt, with limited achievents, making it difficult for him to ever reach the Middle Stage.
Originally, Ding Yixuan still had so hope.
But under the relentless pressure of Red Rainbow Sect cultivators, he naively thought winning through magical combat would buy breathing room for the Ding Family.
The result was a disastrous defeat and grave injuries.
This killed the montum for the Ding Family to continue independent developnt.
No cultivation clan can thrive without Foundation Establishnt cultivators to support it.
However, to make Ding Yijin hand over market managent rights and disband the family, he would never agree.
The thousand-year legacy of the Ding Family must not be severed in his hands.
Moreover.
After disbanding the family, the clan mbers would beco loose cultivators, and how many could preserve their lives remains uncertain.
The Ding Family and the Red Rainbow Sect are mortal enemies, irreconcilable.
The rule of cutting weeds and removing roots also applies in the cultivation realm.
"Please, Talisman Master Shen, save us!"
Ding Yijin knelt down with a "thump" on the ground.
The gentleman of the past is now weary and prematurely aged.
The giant entity of the Red Rainbow Sect is not sothing a small Ding Family can shake.
"Rise. There’s no need for this."
Shen Xuan used a gentle force to lift Ding Yijin up.
"Ding Yijin, I ask you, in your eyes, is the Spirit Vein at Cyan Dragon Bay more important, or the clan mbers of the Ding Family?"
After getting up, Ding Yijin froze for a mont.
Soon, he understood Shen Xuan’s aning.
"The Ding Family mbers are more important!"
Shen Xuan nodded slightly.
Ding Yijin hasn’t beco completely muddled with age.
"But, without the Spirit Vein at Cyan Dragon Bay, the Ding Family mbers have nowhere to settle!"
Ding Yijin exchanged glances with the three elders and added a sentence.
This is the sorrow of bottom-level cultivators.
Without a Spirit Vein, survival is tough even when banding together.
Not to ntion nurturing offspring.
The Spirit Vein is like a farr’s land.
It’s fundantal to their livelihood.
Even if it’s only a second-tier inferior spirit vein, unnoticed by middle and small sects.
Unless there’s no alternative, Ding Yijin is unwilling to give it up.
Shen Xuan calmly said, "My current status is the direct disciple of the True Master from both the Small Gu Peak and Cold Jade Peak of the Cyan Cloud Sect."
"In Cold Jade Peak, there are only my Master Cold Jade True Master and my junior sister Liu Bingyu."
"If you are interested, I can report to my Master and ask her to show rcy, allowing a few Ding family mbers to join the Cyan Cloud Sect, becoming outer disciples, stationed at Cold Jade Peak."
"There, Spiritual Qi is abundant, with several ice pools to breed so spirit fish suited to ice pools."
"Moreover, so Spirit dicine Gardens can be cultivated to plant ice-attributed spirit plants."
"Other clan mbers can also migrate to markets near Qing Yun Immortal City, open shops, sell spirit fish and spirit plants, and purchase dicinal herbs."
Hearing this, Ding Yijin was overjoyed and thrilled.
"The Ding Family would be willing and eager, and please, Talisman Master Shen, provide your guidance and care!"
In fact, with Shen Xuan’s financial strength.
He could lend tens of thousands of Spirit Stones to the Ding Family, letting them buy a second-tier inferior spirit vein near Qing Yun Immortal City.
However, Shen Xuan understood the principle of "a bushel of grain is a favor, a bushel more, a grudge."
For the Ding Family, he only offered ergency relief, not permanent aid.
To earn Spirit Stones and purchase spirit veins, they must rely on their efforts.
"There’s no ti to lose. Pack up, and set off in three days."
"Thank you, Talisman Master Shen, I’ll arrange it now."
...
Three days later.
At the entrance of Cyan Dragon Bay Market.
All the mbers of the Ding Family were ready to depart.
Ding Yijin had long prepared and secretly purchased a second-hand spaceship.
Shen Xuan lent Ding Yixuan a spaceship.
With both spaceships, more than eighty cultivators could be accommodated.
The Ding Family settled most clan mbers on the spaceships.
The remaining elite cultivators surrounded the spaceship, flying with artifacts.
From Cyan Dragon Bay Market, the distance to Dragon Gate Market of Cyan Cloud Sect is quite near, only three thousand miles.
It only takes a day to arrive.
Under the prestige of Cyan Cloud Sect, there are few appearances of Tribulation Cultivators on the road to Dragon Gate Market.
Moreover, the Ding Family’s team of cultivators had two family Foundation Establishnt Realm cultivators as deterrents.
Common tribulation cultivators are reluctant to risk a head-on confrontation, so the risk is not high.
The Ding Family mbers were about to set off.
At this mont, urgent sounds of sothing breaking through the air ca from Cyan Dragon Bay Market.
Ding Yijin and Ding Yixuan were visibly tense.
Two escape lights, one white and one red, stopped five feet in front of them.
"Senior Brother Tan, Senior Sister Hu, why are you here?"
Ding Yijin’s expression changed.
They were faced with Tan Xingkong and Hu Ningxiang, whom they had previously encountered.
Both had a gloomy look on their faces.
"Junior Brother Ding, where do you think you’re going?"
Tan Xingkong asked sinisterly.
"My younger brother is seriously injured, and I’m preparing to take him to the Great Sect Immortal City for dical treatnt."
"Junior Brother Ding, how bold of you, daring to lie and deceive in front of Senior Brother Tan!"
Hu Ningxiang pointed at Ding Yixuan: "I see your brother is lively and vigorous, and his injuries seem almost healed."
Ding Yijin said in a deep voice, "My younger brother was treated by Talisman Master Shen, and his condition has indeed improved."
"However, recovering from illness is like drawing silk; my brother still needs treatnt in the Great Sect Immortal City. Otherwise, he will have lingering injuries, with his Dao Foundation damaged, and will be unable to advance in the future."
"Fine, even if you have a point. What about the rest of these people?"
Hu Ningxiang pointed to the other Ding Family cultivators.
"The Ding Family has one hundred and twenty-eight cultivators, only eight aged and foolish ones are left behind, the rest are present here."
"You’re clearly trying to defect from the sect and flee!"
"We of the Celestial Skill Sect do not allow you to co and go as you please!"
