"But Master said soone in Shangxi seems to also have this Divine Soul Technique. Could it be the latter part of the ’Nine Chamber Divine Soul Canon’? The soul-attacking effect technique."
"After the righteous-demonic war, we can let Master investigate. If possible, see if we can directly obtain it."
"Secondly, there are other continents that Master talked about. I didn’t expect the world to be so vast. I originally thought Cangluo Continent was already sufficiently large - just Shang Dong alone has six Immortal Sects. Yet, Master said there are continents larger than Cangluo, and Cangluo might just be an island compared to them. Seems like my journey ahead is long, I cannot afford to be careless."
"It’s truly like treading on thin ice in this path of cultivation."
"Lastly, there’s Master’s identity... When asked, she wouldn’t say and told she would reveal it soday. Damn, Master, you don’t even trust . You weren’t like this when teaching cultivation techniques. Ah."
Ji Yuan lay in his Cave Mansion, with myriad thoughts racing through his mind.
But he knew he couldn’t lie there for long.
Because he still needs to set off for Liancheng Mountain to retrieve the Phoenix Peach.
"Unexpectedly, Third Senior Sister, who has been silent all along, is about to break through to the Peak of Foundation Establishnt. Soon, I’ll have two senior brothers and one senior sister, with one being a Fake Pill Realm Great Senior Brother plus two at the Peak of Foundation Establishnt: Second Senior Brother and Third Senior Sister. It’s quite a formidable backup."
"Looks like I also need to find the location to gather the embryo for the next Flying Sword, since strength, no matter how strong, must be rooted in the cultivation realm."
With this thought, Ji Yuan stopped lying down.
There’s no use lying, better to cultivate early and ask Liu Yuan as well, who practices the Li Family’s ’Sword Manual,’ and see where he gathered his sword embryo.
Further travel beckons, so Ji Yuan prudently took along the Frost Serpent and Bee Swarm.
Additionally, he took the Yin Ghost Banner and Thousand Souls Banner too, better safe than sorry lest he needed to act as a Demon Cultivator at so point.
Flying Boat paved the way, traveling and cultivating simultaneously.
As Ji Yuan approached Liancheng Mountain, he discovered sothing strange.
That was his Dantian.
During the month-long journey, he rembered to eat the Tri-colored Spirit Egg he had in his Storage Bag, which led to an interesting situation.
His Dantian’s Spirit Liquid—the Mid-stage Foundation Establishnt had almost filled half a Dantian initially, but after consuming a month of Tri-colored Spirit Eggs... the Spirit Liquid reduced to only one-third.
Fortunately, although the Spirit Liquid visibly reduced, the total amount didn’t diminish. Otherwise, Ji Yuan would be worried about his cultivation sliding back to the early Foundation Establishnt stage.
On the day he reached Liancheng Mountain, he consud the last Tri-colored Spirit Egg. If he wanted to continue eating, he’d need to activate the Chicken Cage building effect here.
Coincidentally, the patrol duty at Liancheng Mountain today happened to be Phoenix Peach.
She saw Ji Yuan arriving and imdiately summoned a Flying Boat to ascend, ecstatically shouting, "Little Junior Brother, you’ve finally arrived!"
"Thank you for your hard work during this ti, Senior Sister."
Ji Yuan slightly bowed, then exchanged fist bumps with Liu Yuan who ca over, "Brother Liu, long ti no see."
"Indeed, long ti no see."
Liu Yuan patted the wine-red gourd at his waist, laughing, "I’ve run out of my brew for quite so ti. Ever since I drank Brother Ji’s wine, everything else tasted like horse urine."
Phoenix Peach was greatly shocked.
"What?! Junior Brother Liu, you’ve drunk horse urine before."
Liu Yuan rubbed his forehead with a wry smile.
After briefly accosting a fellow Joy Palace cultivator, they saw soone from Water Dragon Sect had arrived for patrol duty. This wasn’t uncommon, so they agreed with a smile, saying they’d keep an eye on things here.
Soti later, Ji Yuan t Rou Yi, who ca over for a visit.
The other two Water Dragon Sect cultivators, Isle Master of Cloud Mist and Master of Bamboo Shadow Island, went down the mine, still yet to return.
After a round of courteous conversation, Ji Yuan went back to his residence with Phoenix Peach.
"Did Master send you here?"
Phoenix Peach sat down and lay on the table, her fiery red long skirt swaying along with her leg movents, looking quite attractive.
"Allow to congratulate Senior Sister in advance."
Ji Yuan smiled, everything understood without words.
Phoenix Peach knew Ji Yuan was talking about her impending breakthrough to the Peak of Foundation Establishnt, and her lips curled uncontainably as she nonchalantly waved her hand, "Ah, Little Junior Brother, you’ll have your day too. When you are ready to break through, Master will surely help you as well."
"Indeed, Master treats us all very well."
"Yes, then I’ll leave this place to Little Junior Brother. Since you’re here, I’ll head back shortly."
The breakthrough concerned her personally, Phoenix Peach couldn’t afford to wait.
"Sure, be careful on the way back, Senior Sister. Once back, please send my regards to Master."
Phoenix Peach rolled her eyes, "Hmph, I won’t tell Master. Little Junior Brother, you’re always so courteous with us, makes interacting uncomfortable."
Ji Yuan chuckled, "That’s being polite, isn’t it?"
"Can’t you be a little rude to then?"
Phoenix Peach blurted out, but as soon as she spoke, she realized it sounded wrong; it had an ambiguous aning.
Her delicate face flushed slightly, and she didn’t know how to explain, so she just buried her head in her arms, pretending to be a tortoise.
Hearing this, Ji Yuan’s heart moved, so he tentatively asked, "How about then..."
"Senior Sister give so Talisman Treasure to use?"
"..."
Phoenix Peach undoubtedly left, in a huff.
To her, even if Ji Yuan had truly made an excessive request, she wouldn’t have been so angry. Yet Ji Yuan, even at this point, asked for Talisman Treasure!
