The massive expenditure of 200,000 experience points left Lu Qingshan with only 40,000 experience as a safety net, temporarily making it so that he could see but not partake.
Storing the Taoist Scroll that contained the Heaven Suppressing Secret Sword in his Storage Ring, Lu Qingshan clasped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you, True Venerable."
"No need for formalities," Beiming True Venerable waved his hand.
"True Venerable," Dantai Qingrun paused to think, choosing her words carefully before finally speaking up. "Although Lu Qingshan has no intention of controlling the real power of the tower, his capabilities are exceptional, and he is a trustworthy person."
Upon hearing this, Beiming True Venerable’s gaze involuntarily swept over Lu Qingshan and Dantai Qingrun before he nodded slightly, saying in a aningful tone, "I understand."
Dantai Qingrun’s expression remained cool, and she said no more.
The aning of her words was clear; she was considering her imminent departure from Qing State and thus wanted to find a reliable backing for Lu Qingshan within the main tower there.
In this regard, Dantai Qingrun’s actions were flawless, completely devoid of any intention to abandon him halfway.
"It just so happens that this month, the tower will undertake a deeply significant operation. Should it proceed smoothly, all participants are likely to gain considerable rit," Beiming True Venerable contemplated before adding to Lu Qingshan, "Originally, your cultivation level did not qualify you to participate in such a mission. However, fortuitously, you’ve advanced to the Golden Core Stage, precisely eting the minimum requirent for this task.
Moreover, the origin of this mission, if traced back, is actually due to you. It would be fitting for you to take part, to see things through to their end.
However, I must clarify beforehand that this mission is quite dangerous. Consider carefully whether you wish to participate or not?"
Lu Qingshan did not ponder long before he agreed.
With an expert leading the team, who wouldn’t follow along?
As for the risks.
What profitable venture in this world cos without risks?
Well aware of the future complications, he knew every second was precious. Initially, he must take so minor risks to accelerate his growth.
For when the tis of turmoil arrive, dangers will lurk everywhere, unavoidable except through formidable personal strength.
If he were to shrink back now, the cost would be becoming a lamb to the slaughter in the future.
Seeing Lu Qingshan’s acceptance, Beiming True Venerable then threw out two tokens.
"I have arranged accommodations for you. Here are the control tokens for the Array of the dwelling. You two just wait for news in the Qingfeng Realm for now."
"Understood," Lu Qingshan and Dantai Qingrun responded in unison.
Qing State is located in Southern Territory, while the main tower of the tower is in Central Heavenly Realm.
The distance between the two realms is beyond ordinary imagination, necessarily requiring a Teleportation Array for travel.
However, activating a Cross-Domain Teleportation Formation even once requires a horrifying number of Spirit Stones.
Hence, even as the State City of Fufeng, it only activates a Cross-Domain Teleportation Formation at fixed tis and is not readily accessible to cultivators without certain statuses.
Dantai Qingrun was to wait quietly in the tower for the next activation of the Cross-Domain Teleportation Formation.
As for Lu Qingshan, he was to await the daunting task from Beiming True Venerable.
Having settled all matters, Lu Qingshan and Dantai Qingrun respectfully took their leave.
"Tower Master Dantai, congratulations, heading to the main tower in Central Heavenly Realm holds a boundless future. When we et again, I might have to address you as Dantai True Venerable," Lu Qingshan said cheerfully as they left Qianshou Tower.
"I had already renounced the position of Deputy Tower Master upon arrival. Let’s dispense with the title of Tower Master," replied Dantai Qingrun with a glance at Lu Qingshan, her expression impassive.
After a few more steps, Dantai Qingrun suddenly stopped, gazing intently at Lu Qingshan’s face. She seriously said, word by word, "This journey to Central Heavenly Realm is due to your kindness, which I will surely repay in the future."
Seeing how earnest Dantai Qingrun was, Lu Qingshan also put aside his intentions of teasing her and nodded slightly, indicating he understood.
For soone as proud as Dantai Qingrun, owing a debt of gratitude was sothing that had to be repaid, so Lu Qingshan refrained from being overly polite.
Yet as he looked at the woman before him, Lu Qingshan felt a considerable sense of accomplishnt.
The trajectory of Dantai Qingrun’s life could be said to have been bent by his hands to its current course.
Seeing that she was now about to head to the main tower to accept her training and inheritance, he inexplicably felt a sentint akin to "seeing one’s daughter grow up."
....
Lu Qingshan took out the token given by Beiming True Venerable, slightly channeling his Spiritual Power into it, and the token sent a ssage to his Divine Sense, guiding him in a direction.
Following the guidance of the token, Lu Qingshan walked down a cobblestone path.
The terrain of Qianshou Tower’s mountain was irregular, but overall, it resembled a columnarine shape.
After walking downhill for half an hour, a lone wooden tower built against a rock wall ca into view, its surface enveloped in a layer of Spiritual Light.
The tower was nad Fan Tower.
Lu Qingshan lightly waved the token, which imdiately emitted a beam of white light onto the Spirit Light barrier. Under the influence of the white light, the barrier opened a gap just wide enough for one person to pass through, and Lu Qingshan stepped inside.
A dense rush of Spiritual Energy greeted him, refreshing his spirits.
This Fan Tower contained a fairly high-ranked Spirit Gathering Array. Just having such a cultivation spot was incredibly valuable.
Regrettably, it was of little use to Lu Qingshan.
It wasn’t that he was incapable of cultivating on his own, but rather, his Spirit Root aptitude was truly average. If he had to rely solely on his own cultivation to advance, he would probably still be struggling in the Qi Refinent Realm right now.
