Chapter 753: Chapter 408 Farewell to Qin Xi_2 Chapter 753: Chapter 408 Farewell to Qin Xi_2 And Qin Xi, upon hearing her mother’s words, didn’t find them long-winded at all; on the contrary, she felt a warmth in her heart.
“Mother, rest assured, Xi’er is very confident, and I will certainly return safely!”
Qin Xi clasped her mother’s hand, speaking with a serious face, her tone suggesting utter determination and confidence.
“Dear mother, Xi’er is blessed by the heavens, I believe she will definitely co back unhard!”
Lin Tianming also grasped their hands, providing them with a big encouragent.
After a short while, Qin Xi turned her head and nodded to Lin Xingping and his companion beside her, then spoke, “Uncle Lin, it’s getting late; we should set out!”
“Hmm… let’s set out!”
...
Lin Xingping looked up at the sun overhead, then nodded in agreent.
Hearing this, Lin Tianming cupped his hands in gesture to Lin Xingping and his companion, then earnestly said, “Uncle Lin, I entrust Xi’er to your care!”
No sooner had the words left his mouth, Lin Xingping and his companion looked startled, then couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Tianming, with the level of Xi’er’s cultivation, who would be taking care of whom?”
Hearing this from Lin Xingping, Lin Xingyuan also chid in on the side.
“Indeed… Xi’er is extraordinarily talented; together, the two of us couldn’t match her. We would probably just slow her down instead!”
“Hahaha…”
Their words lightened the mood, and soon, all those present began to laugh, greatly alleviating the solemn air that had marked their farewells.
“All right, it’s ti to set off!”
Qin Xi bowed to her clan mbers behind her, then slapped the Spirit Beast Bag on her waist.
Suddenly, a sharp screech rang out, and an Early Second Order Purple Gold Eagle materialized out of thin air, circling excitedly overhead.
This Purple Gold Eagle was part of the group that Lin Tianming had brought back to the clan. As one of the few female cultivators at the Foundation Establishnt Stage in the clan and Lin Tianming’s partner, Qin Xi was highly favored and naturally eligible to ta an Early Second Order Purple Gold Eagle as her own Spirit Beast.
Not only Qin Xi, but Lin Xingping and Lin Xingyuan also had considerable cultivation and were among the clan’s elite. They too each possessed an Early Second Order Purple Gold Eagle as their Spirit Beast.
Now, they were preparing to head to Qianchuan Market for assembly. Since there weren’t many of them, they could all ride the sa Purple Gold Eagle.
Otherwise, if three Purple Gold Eagles flew together, the large formation would be overly conspicuous. In case they encountered soone coveting the Purple Gold Eagles, trouble would be inevitable.
Thus, sharing one Purple Gold Eagle was not only more discreet but also advantageous for handling crises.
As for the long-distance travel, naturally, the Purple Gold Eagle would do the heavy lifting, conserving a great deal of Spiritual Power and preventing fatigue from Sword Flight.
As the three of them hopped onto the back of the Purple Gold Eagle, they waved to the clan mbers below, and the Purple Gold Eagle soared into the sky, piercing through the light screen of the Protective Clan Formation and finally vanishing into the horizon.
Watching the Purple Gold Eagle disappear without a trace, Lin Tianming took his mother’s hand and said, “Mother, rest assured, Xi’er will surely return safely!”
Upon hearing this, Ren Yuxuan also understood that worry was futile, especially for those in the Cultivation World. Once soone embarked on this path, they could never escape the struggle and killings for opportunity.
This path was destined to be one of competing with the heavens for one’s life and with immortals for chances!
It’s a dangerous journey, and neither she herself nor Lin Tianming could avoid or change it.
Realizing this, Ren Yuxuan nodded her head in resignation and responded, “Well… let’s go back.”
After finishing their talk, the two greeted the other clan mbers seeing them off, then returned to their respective caves.
After seeing off Qin Xi and the others, Lin Tianming returned to his cave dwelling and did not intend to rest but imdiately headed for the cultivation room.
In his eyes, the Cultivation World was afla with war, and a great battle between the three sects was inevitable.
And he had yet to break through to the Golden Core Stage; the Lin Family had no power to stay out of it.
In such tis, he had to seize every mont to advance his cultivation to Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection and then strive for the Golden Core Stage as soon as possible.
Fortunately, Foundation Establishnt Great Perfection is not a realm, but a psychological barrier. Once one’s state of mind is sublimated, the conditions for impacting the Golden Core Stage are t.
Understanding this, Lin Tianming promptly began to operate his power and adjust his breathing, bringing himself to an optimal state, and then started his cultivation practice.
…
Ten days passed quickly.
As evening approached this day, the sky gradually darkened, a sign that night was about to fall.
Outside Qianchuan Market, atop a mountain hundreds of feet tall, the silhouette of a Purple Gold Eagle appeared.
After traveling for ten days, Qin Xi and her two companions took a short rest at Golden Horn Mountain for a night and then successfully arrived outside Qianchuan Market.
At this mont, Qin Xi and her companions jumped down from the back of the Purple Gold Eagle and faced the distant, faintly visible city walls with thoughtful expressions.
Throughout their journey, they had passed through nurous regions and encountered various cultivators. The majority of them were Qi Refining Cultivators, with so Foundation Establishnt Cultivators as well.
After making inquiries, they discovered that many cultivators shared their objective and were preparing to assemble at Qianchuan Market.
Clearly, the Zhenyang Sect’s call to arms was significant, encompassing both Foundation Establishing Families and Qi Refining Families within its scope.
Furthermore, so Loose Cultivators were also drawn by the rewards offered by the Zhenyang Sect, ready to wade into these troubled waters.
However, the majority of cultivators, due to the pressure from the three major sects, were compelled to send their clan mbers to the assembly, even though they were reluctant.
Beyond that, after exchanges among themselves, so intelligence suggested that the Zhenyang Sect’s situation seed not so favorable.
But these ssages were of unclear origin and had appeared quite so ti ago.
Therefore, the exact circumstances of the Zhenyang Sect remained difficult to ascertain. It was feared that only by heading to the Zhenyang Sect Mountain Gate or to the two major markets controlled by the Zhenyang Sect could they get accurate information.
At the mont, they had arrived at the assembly point designated by the Zhenyang Sect five days before the deadline.
There was still ample ti, and they could also et with the clan mbers stationed at Luoyun Pavilion and take the opportunity to gather news.
With these considerations in mind, Qin Xi looked in the direction of Qianchuan Market and said, “Uncles, since the Zhenyang Sect has nad the place of assembly, they naturally have dispatched heavy guards. Moreover, it seems that Qianchuan Market has not been attacked by the Golden Sword Sect, so let’s go in and have a look first!”
“Hmm… let’s go!”
Seeing that Lin Xingping and the other had no objections, Qin Xi imdiately put the Purple Gold Eagle into a storage bag and then took the lead to fly toward the market entrance.
Seeing this, Lin Xingping and the other hastened to follow Qin Xi and flew over.
In a short while, the three arrived at the entrance to the market.
At this ti, nurous cultivators were already queuing at the entrance, waiting for the market guards to inspect them. Once their identities were confird, they would be allowed to enter the market smoothly.
On top of the city walls, many Zhenyang Sect cultivators guarded in all four directions. There were perhaps several hundred of them, including dozens of Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, all with serious expressions and appearing very cautious.
It seed that during tis of war, the defenses of Qianchuan Market were much more rigorous than usual.
It was not surprising when one considered that Qianchuan Market was one of the two major markets under the Zhenyang Sect, independently established by the sect itself.
A market of this scale, unlike those built with the collaboration of powers in various mountain ranges, was different not just in size but also in control, being entirely under the Zhenyang Sect’s dominion.
Such a dium-sized market—of which there were fewer than ten in the entire Wei Kingdom—brought substantial profits to the Zhenyang Sect each year.
Consequently, such a money tree would naturally beco a target for the Golden Sword Sect and might likely face attack.
But at present, although the expressions of the Zhenyang Sect disciples were serious, the periphery of the market seed safe and intact, with no signs of injury or casualties among the stationed cultivators, unlike what would be expected had there been an attack.
Recognizing this, Qin Xi led Lin Xingping and the other past the queue of cultivators directly to the guards and disclosed their identities.
Given the influence of the Lin Family around Qianchuan Market, the inspecting cultivator naturally recognized them clearly.
After chatting briefly and confirming the identities of the three, they were quickly allowed to pass through.
