Guo Xingyue strolled around on the second floor. He exchanged a water-element flying sword for several plants of Wuyancao. This Wuyancao is one of the eighteen rare medicinal herbs for refining the Tribulation-Passing Pill. However, compared to the three main medicines, Seven-Grade Lotus Platform, Blood Velvet Ginseng, and Golden Mushroom Bacteria, it is relatively common. Guo Xingyue plans to refine the Tribulation-Passing Pill in the future. He is just short of a few more common medicinal herbs. This Wuyancao is one of them.
Liu Yihe saw Guo Xingyue exchange a top-grade flying sword for Wuyancao and repeatedly said it was a pity. He said that Wuyancao was not difficult to find. There were some planted in his sect. He also said that if Guo Xingyue needed it, he could follow him back to the sect to get some. Guo Xingyue just chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter. I need Wuyancao, and other fellow cultivators need top-grade magic weapons. Each takes what they need." Then he exchanged two medium-grade flying swords for several large pieces of fire crystals. There was nothing else on the second floor that could interest him anymore.
Cheng Xu had made several big deals in a row and was in a very good mood. He was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. Seeing that Guo Xingyue was not interested in the things on the second floor anymore, he didn't want to let go of this big customer (sucker?). He quickly said, "Senior, would you like to go to the third floor? There are really many good things on the third floor." Guo Xingyue had exchanged for what he wanted and was in a good mood, so he said, "Okay, let's go up and take a look."
There were many cultivators coming to trade in the lobby on the first floor, and there were also some on the second floor. Only on the third floor were there few people. In the huge room, except for two cultivators who could be seen at a glance as clerks, there was only a purple-clothed person facing a counter and looking at something. When Guo Xingyue walked up to the third floor and scanned with his spiritual sense, he actually couldn't see the cultivation level of that purple-clothed person. He only felt a powerful pressure coming from that person. Guo Xingyue couldn't help but probe his spiritual sense towards that person. As soon as his spiritual sense touched the purple-clothed person, the purple-clothed person snorted. Guo Xingyue's spiritual sense was shaken and he was almost injured. The purple-clothed person turned around and looked at Guo Xingyue. A powerful pressure pressed towards Guo Xingyue. The spiral true essence power in Guo Xingyue's body circulated frantically and barely blocked this huge pressure. His face instantly turned red like blood.
The purple-clothed person looked at Guo Xingyue for a while before withdrawing the pressure and said coldly, "Which sect's disciple are you? Why are you so impolite?" Guo Xingyue was stunned: Impolite? He hadn't offended him at all. He quickly cupped his fists and saluted and said, "I am Guo Xingyue from Pangu Star. I have no sect and I am just cultivating on my own."
The purple-clothed person's face changed. He seemed to be shocked by Guo Xingyue's answer. Guo Xingyue's spiritual sense level had reached the middle stage of combination, but his cultivation was only at the later stage of emergence. This was already puzzling. Moreover, he was actually cultivating on his own. Where is Pangu Star? Why haven't I heard of it? Could it be a newly discovered cultivation planet? Seeing that Guo Xingyue looked sincere and didn't seem to be lying, the purple-clothed person said, "Oh, it seems that I was mistaken."
Seeing that Guo Xingyue was still looking confused, Liu Yihe on the side quickly explained, "In the cultivation world, when you have determined that the other person's cultivation is higher than yours, you must not use your spiritual sense to probe the other person again. Otherwise, it will be regarded as provoking the other person." Only then did Guo Xingyue understand where he was wrong. He quickly saluted and said, "I was reckless. Just because I was curious about the peculiar true essence power on the senior, I was impolite. Please forgive me, senior. May I ask what is the senior's name?" As soon as the purple-clothed person heard this, he was amused. This person in front of him was indeed a novice. He couldn't even distinguish between immortal essence and true essence. He laughed and said, "I am Zi Ye. As a Loose Immortal, I only have immortal essence. Where is there any true essence?"
Loose Immortal? Because of Haotian, Guo Xingyue had an inexplicable sense of closeness to Loose Immortals. He took out a jade pendant from his storage ring and imprinted into it the part about Loose Immortals' tribulation that Haotian had passed on to him. He handed the jade pendant to Zi Ye and said, "I once had an elder who was also cultivating as a Loose Immortal. There are some insights about tribulation in here. I think it will be helpful to the senior."
Zi Ye took the jade pendant. As soon as he probed with his spiritual sense, his face immediately changed greatly. He flipped his hand and took out a teleportation jade and made a series of hand gestures. In just a moment, figures flashed and there were already three more people in the room. The person in the middle was dressed in white. His appearance was simple and ancient. He had deep eyes and blue eyes. His hair was as white as snow. The person on the left was dressed in green. His long beard was fluttering. He had an air of immortality. The person on the right was dressed in red. His whole body was covered with red hair. All three people had a powerful pressure. The people who came were all Loose Immortals. Except for the immortals who occasionally descend to the mortal world, Loose Immortals are almost invincible in the cultivation world. The cultivation of Loose Immortals is extremely difficult. There are very few Loose Immortals in the cultivation world and they are rarely seen on ordinary days. But at this moment, there are actually four of them here. Liu Yihe and others were all stunned. They stared blankly at these four Loose Immortals and even forgot to greet them.
The later Loose Immortals didn't pay attention to the astonished gazes of everyone. The white-clothed person in the middle smiled and said to Zi Ye, "Brother Zi Ye, you didn't even say hello when you came to Lanxing Shui. You summoned us in such a hurry. What's the important matter?" Zi Ye didn't answer. He just handed the jade pendant in his hand to the old man in white. The old man in white took the jade pendant. As soon as he scanned with his spiritual sense, the smile on his face immediately froze. He held the jade pendant tightly and said in a trembling voice, "This, this. Brother Zi Ye, where did this jade pendant come from?"
Zi Ye pointed at Guo Xingyue and said, "This little brother gave it." The old man in white looked at Guo Xingyue and said, "This is not a place to talk. Little brother, please follow me." With a wave of his large sleeve, the four Loose Immortals and Guo Xingyue disappeared. Liu Yihe and his group had received many benefits from Guo Xingyue. Seeing that Guo Xingyue had disappeared, they couldn't help but feel a little worried. Cheng Xu on the side quickly said, "Don't worry, everyone. Those three Loose Immortals are guest elders of our sect. They are kind-hearted and will definitely not make things difficult for your friend. If you are not at ease, you can wait at our sect." Liu Yihe thought to himself: This senior Guo is generous. Those four Loose Immortals should not make things difficult for him. Anyway, there is still one month left. It's better to go to Yangming Sect and make some connections. So he replied, "As you said."
Let's say that Guo Xingyue suddenly felt a tightness on his body. A huge pressure made him unable to move. The true essence in his body circulated rapidly. The defensive array on the treasure-level magic robe he was wearing emitted a white light and resisted this pressure. In just a moment, he suddenly felt a relaxation all over his body. He found that he was no longer in the Treasure Gathering Tower but in a small pavilion.
The pavilion was suspended over a small lake. The lake was filled with colorful golden lotuses (the main medicine for refining Guiyuan Pill). Blossoms of golden lotuses were blooming among the green lotus leaves. Under the sunlight, they emitted a dazzling brilliance. Along the lake were rows of Xiyuan fruit trees. The trees were covered with purple Xiyuan fruits (one of the main medicines for refining Huanshen Pill), bending the green branches. Not far from the lake was a garden full of flowers. Behind the garden was a palace of considerable size. This place was simply a paradise on earth.
