Another girl also ca over. Her eyes, fixed on Wang Xiaoqiang, sized him up with astonishnt and suspicion. She too had noticed that in just a mont, Wang Xiaoqiang's cultivation base had risen to the Foundation Establishnt Stage, and she was extrely shocked.
Seeing that he was a fellow cultivator, Qiyan gave Wang Xiaoqiang a smile and said, "Daoist Friend Wang, eting here must be fate, may I know your esteed na?"
Wang Xiaoqiang had originally planned to sneak down to the bottom of the Heavenly Pit under cover of darkness to absorb Spiritual Energy but unexpectedly encountered three cultivators, which spoiled his plans. However, seeing Qiyan's calm deanor, he didn't ignore her but instead said, "Just call Wang Xiaoqiang. Where are you all from?"
"Uh, we are disciples of Taiyi Sect. My na is Ling Qiyan, this is my junior brother, Mochong, and this girl is my junior sister, Ye Qingcheng, ..." Qiyan, seeing Wang Xiaoqiang was easy to talk to, joyfully and straightforwardly revealed their background at once.
"Taiyi Sect?" Wang Xiaoqiang had no idea about it, "It sounds like a major sect?"
Upon hearing this, all three were shocked. In the Cultivation Realm of their nation, the Taiyi Sect was a famously prominent existence, and any cultivator ought to be aware of it, especially soone with Wang Xiaoqiang's cultivation base. How could he say sothing like this?
"Yes, the Taiyi Sect is one of the top three Cultivation Sects in our country, with over a thousand disciples..." Ling Qiyan observed his reactions and tentatively asked, "Daoist Friend Wang, could it be that you are from an overseas cultivation sect?"
Wang Xiaoqiang was neither from an overseas cultivation sect nor had he heard of such sects, so he shook his head. Seeing that all three were staring at him with astonished eyes, he blurted out, "No, I was personally taught by my master. After my master died, I have been cultivating alone..."
"Oh, then your master must have been an extraordinary expert, or perhaps you, Daoist Friend Wang, are a prodigy born with exceptional talent..." Mo Qingcheng, with shining eyes, gazed at Wang Xiaoqiang as she spoke.
Seeing Ye Qingcheng gazing at Wang Xiaoqiang with sparkling eyes, a hint of jealousy flashed in Mochong's eyes. Upon looking at Wang Xiaoqiang again, there was a trace of hostility in his eyes.
Regarding Mochong's hostility, Wang Xiaoqiang didn't mind and just chuckled, "My master was incredible, but although he was a great man, he never once told his na, so even to this day, I don't know what he was called..."
Wang Xiaoqiang was just bluffing to prevent the three from probing too deeply, so he directly gave an explanation to shut them up.
Indeed, after Wang Xiaoqiang said this, the three of them ceased to inquire further, convinced that Wang Xiaoqiang's master was an esteed expert. Only a truly enlightened master would regard fa so lightly. Considering Wang Xiaoqiang's young age, which was two years younger than theirs, to have reached the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt at such an age ant he must have been guided by a great master. Could it be that he, like Ling Qiyan, was a prodigy destined to reach Foundation Establishnt Mid Stage before the age of 25?
"Daoist Friend Wang, did you co to absorb the veins of Spiritual Energy at the bottom of the Heavenly Pit?" Ling Qiyan, noticing that the sky had fully darkened, asked Wang Xiaoqiang.
Wang Xiaoqiang nodded, "Yes, you ca for the Spiritual Energy as well, didn't you?"
"Correct. We ca from our holand to the kong River to slay a Rigid Zombie. We didn't expect to encounter the Heavenly Pit, and also that there were leaks of underground spiritual veins. This is truly a fortunate coincidence. Since we've t, we naturally cannot pass up this opportunity..." Ling Qiyan spoke and then said to Wang Xiaoqiang, "Daoist Friend Wang, since our goals are the sa, why don't we go down together for mutual support..."
Seeing Ling Qiyan suggest this, Ye Qingcheng appeared quite happy, only Mochong looked reluctant, clearly displaying his dislike towards Wang Xiaoqiang.
"Alright, let's go together!" Wang Xiaoqiang shrugged his shoulders.
"Then, let's go get the Flying Sword! Hehe~" Ye Qingcheng, seeing Wang Xiaoqiang agree to go together, flashed him a beautiful smile, her stunning face blooming with joy, truly living up to her na. Although Wang Xiaoqiang had encountered many beautiful won, Ye Qingcheng was still the most beautiful among them.
"Flying Sword?..." Wang Xiaoqiang was confused but quickly thought of sothing and said, "Uh, the Flying Sword I don't use should be fine..."
"What...?" The three exclaid in surprise, "Not using a Flying Sword, Sky Manipulation? Golden Core Realm...?"
Once a Cultivator reached the Foundation Establishnt Stage, they could fly using a Flying Sword Magic Treasure. Only when one had cultivated to the Golden Core Realm could they fly through Sky Traversal without a Flying Sword Magic Treasure, which is what they referred to as "Sky Manipulation," and to them, Wang Xiaoqiang was only at the Foundation Establishnt Mid Stage, equivalent to Ling Qiyan's Cultivation Base. How could he say he didn't need a Flying Sword?
Wang Xiaoqiang, not knowing much about this aspect of Cultivation, saw the three staring at him in doubt, and casually explained, "Uh, no, I didn't bring a Flying Sword because I just ca to see if there were any people here first, then planned to enter after dark..."
"Then you better go back and get it quickly!" Mo Chong, not wanting Wang Xiaoqiang to join them, said with a look of annoyance in his eyes.
"Ah, no need, we agreed to go down together. We can take Daoist Friend Wang along," Ling Qiyan said as she took off the pack on her back, opened the zipper, and revealed a slender sword that twinkled in the night.
Seeing Ling Qiyan say this, Mo Wen shook his head in frustration and helplessness, also took off his pack, opened the zipper, and revealed a broad sword with an ancient look.
Ye Qingcheng also quickly took out a long sword from her pack, the blade clear as autumn water and brightly shining without being blinding. It looked even more advanced than the swords of the previous two.
After taking out their swords and packing up, Ling Qiyan said to Mo Chong, "Junior Brother Mo, you take Daoist Friend Wang..."
"I have low Cultivation and insufficient Mana. I can't carry another person..." Mo Chong turned his head away and coldly stated. In truth, carrying another person on a Flying Sword didn't affect anything; even Ye Qingcheng, who had the lowest Cultivation Base could manage, so Mo Chong's statent was clearly because he didn't want Wang Xiaoqiang riding with him on his sword.
Ling Qiyan felt a bit awkward upon hearing this and was about to say that Wang Xiaoqiang should ride with her when Ye Qingcheng already spoke up, "Why not let Daoist Friend Wang ride with ? Daoist Friend Wang has profound Cultivation; he could look after ..."
Among the three, Ling Qiyan was at the Fifth Tier of Foundation Establishnt, Mo Chong at the Third Tier, and Ye Qingcheng at the First Tier, and her cultivation was recent and the lowest. She knew the bottom of the Heavenly Pit held not only dense Spiritual Energy but also might hide Demon Beasts. She was sowhat anxious, so having a Daoist Friend at the Mid Stage of Foundation Establishnt with her was a splendid thing to wish for.
Ling Qiyan, who had also been worried about Ye Qingcheng, saw that Wang Xiaoqiang, whose Cultivation Base was as high as hers, would be riding on the sa Flying Sword. They could look after each other, so she nodded, happily agreeing, "That would be best."
Only Mo Chong, upon hearing Ye Qingcheng's words, felt a mix of jealousy and regret within him. He was jealous that Wang Xiaoqiang would be sharing a Flying Sword with Ye Qingcheng, which would surely involve physical contact during the flight. Dammit, usually, I don't even get to hold Junior Sister Ye's hand, and this lucky guy gets all the favors. He regretted having earlier refused Wang Xiaoqiang a ride on his sword; otherwise, Wang Xiaoqiang wouldn't have picked up the huge favor of riding the sword with a beauty. (To be continued.
