Chapter 162 Rewards

t years, but I am still far from Brother Wang." Lu Xia Tian shook his head and then changed the subject. "I wonder what brings Brother Wang to call me back""Well, nothing special really. Just that the...“Thank you, Master Lei, for the praise.” Su Qing, like Wu Yan, naturally took the reward of the rejuvenating fruit. However, she left with a sullen expression.

"Sister Su, there's no need to be unhappy. Look, Senior Brother Lu hasn't come out yet. If you show off now, you'll completely lose your luster later. Let that female disciple of the Ancient Sword Sect be proud for a while, and wait until she's compared down in numbers. Wouldn't her face look even worse" Wu Yan had been fighting alongside Su Qing this whole time, spending day and night together, forming a deep bond. Seeing Su Qing unhappy, she immediately comforted her.

"That's right." Su Qing glanced at Lu Xia Tian. Seeing him at the back of the line, eyes downcast and looking like he didn't want to be noticed, she couldn't help but smirk. This guy had strength but preferred this kind of low-key attitude. After leaving the restricted area, he was completely different from before.

As for Su Qing's gaze, Lu Xia Tian acted as if he hadn't seen it. He was just a Qi Refinement cultivator. Family knew their own affairs best. Currently at the Qi Refining stage, he could still rely on his years of effort to hold a considerable advantage. Once they all reached the Foundation Establishment stage, the gap caused by aptitude would widen again. Su Qing, Wu Yan, Luo Qian and others were very likely to catch up to him or even surpass him.

With Su Qing's tendency to stand out and love being the center of attention, she wouldn't be in the same circle as him in the future. Otherwise, she would be seen as a thorn in their side by Luo Qian and those who protect her like bodyguards.

Practitioners from the Gujian Sect and Qingdan Palace who emerged from the Blood-Colored Forbidden Zone outnumbered those of Lingxiao Palace. Although Lu Xia Tian was at the back of the queue, it wasn't long before it was his turn.

“A thousand six hundred year old pine tree!”

When Lu Xia Tian took out the various spirit creatures from his storage pouch, there was a gasp of astonishment on the flying war ship. Even Bi Xu Lao Gui and the Black Cane Hu surnamed Jindan ancestor of Qingdan Palace stared wide-eyed, "Goodness gracious, did he enter some cave of blessed fortune that specializes in growing spirit creatures"

"You can exchange for thirty-nine Foundation Establishment Pills!" When Wu Chengfeng reported this data, the muscles on his face couldn't help but twitch involuntarily. This was too outrageous.

"Little one, what's your name Which peak domain are you a disciple of"

Huo Yueming couldn't stop smiling. Ever since Su Qing took out the spirit object, the gap between Lingxiao Palace and Gujian Sect had narrowed considerably. Who knew that Lu Xiaitian, a seemingly unremarkable disciple, would have such an astonishing performance Lingxiao Palace suddenly overtook Gujian Sect by quite a bit. Originally, Huo Yueming thought they were bound to lose the bet with Bi Xu Laogui, but who knew such a situation could arise.

"I am Lu Xiaottian, a disciple of Qinglian Peak," Lu Xiaottian said respectfully, bowing his hands. Originally, he didn't want to draw attention to himself. Before killing Du Guhan, he could have exchanged seven or eight Spirit Stones. Three elite disciples, all powerful in their own right, had died at his hands, and he had taken their three storage pouches. If he took out too little, Wu Yan and Su Qing might not expose him, but they would definitely suspect him privately.

Later, six more purple ginseng plants were divided in the swamp. Yuan Hao was then forced to hand over his storage pouch. In fact, even what Yuan Hao had openly possessed was worth nearly nineteen. It was obvious that Yuan Hao had to take these out, otherwise where did all the spiritual objects on him go Their whereabouts were unknown, and he didn't want to arouse suspicion from certain interested parties.

Besides, he also hid a large amount of unseen spirit herbs within the barrier. At least half of what was in Dugu Han and the others' storage pouches had been deducted by him.

Even so, the number of spirits he brought out was still incredibly impressive.

“Good, very good. After successfully laying the foundation, if you have any questions about cultivation, feel free to ask this old man.” Huo Yueming was in a great mood and looked at Lu Xiaitian with increasing favor.

“Thank you, Patriarch Huo.” Lu Xia Tian’s heart was filled with joy. With Huo Yu Ming’s words, he was practically wearing a talisman on his body. Even Qian Da Li, no matter how sinister, couldn't touch him now The previous move he had made by asking Su Qing and Wu Yan for help seemed to be unnecessary for the time being.

“A disciple of such outstanding ability has emerged from the Qilian Peak Territory. Chengzu, you have done a good job as the peak master. It is essential to cultivate excellent disciples for the Immortal Palace regardless of their background, even among those ordinary cultivators without connections.” Lei Wantian also nodded repeatedly, and took the opportunity to praise Wu Chengzu.

Wu Chengzu could only verbally thank Lei Wantian for his praise, but he looked awkward. Before bringing his disciples to the Blood Forbidden Land, he didn't even know that Qinglian Peak had a disciple like Lu Xia Tian.

After finishing with the spiritual creature, Lu Xia Tian withdrew. However, during his withdrawal, he seemed to sense a gaze fixed on him. He turned his head and saw that the azure-robed girl from Gujianzong, who possessed the Moon Spirit Sword Body, was looking at him with surprise in her bright eyes. The girl took a step forward, but then seemed to realize that both their sect ancestors were present and it wouldn't be convenient to speak, so she hesitated.

Lu Xia Tian was a little puzzled. Looking at the girl's expression, it seemed like she knew him. But he couldn't figure out when he had met such a powerful female cultivator of the same age. And she was from the Ancient Sword Sect.

The disciples of Gujianzong brought out ordinary spiritual objects, and the number was not many. Bi Shu Lao Gui was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, directly looking at Yuan Hao and said, "You boy, what are you doing dawdling behind Don't you take out your storage bag!"

“I, I, my storage bag was stolen.” Under the gaze of several Golden Core ancestors and other Foundation Establishment cultivators from his sect, Yuan Hao almost felt like crying. He had been afraid that this situation would arise, worried about the reprimand of the Golden Core ancestors, so he hid at the back of the formation. He could dodge the first day, but not the fifteenth. This moment of discomfort he had dreaded finally arrived.

"With your abilities, could someone still snatch your storage pouch Even half a year's harvest was taken, and you look unharmed. Who took it Are you deceiving me" Bi Xu Ancestor roared with a dark face.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"Ancestor above, this junior dares not deceive in any way. Yes, yes, it is Lu Xia Tian from Lingxiao Palace." Yuan Hao pointed at Lu Xia Tian with fury and resentment, he was in this embarrassing and humiliating situation all because of Lu Xia Tian.

The cultivators present were immediately in an uproar, many of them looking at Lu Xia Tian. It was well-known that Gu Jian Zong had produced a Yue Ling Jian Ti and a Pure Yang Jian Ti Qi Refining disciple. The Yue Ling Jian Ti should be the female disciple who had her face covered by a veil before. Yuan Hao was able to be so valued by Bi Su Lao Gui, he must be the Pure Yang Jian Ti. Such a cultivator was already at the top among Qi Refining disciples, and someone had even robbed him of his storage bag!

"It's you Lingxiao Palace and my Gujian Sect have always been on good terms. Why are you snatching Yuan Hao's storage bag Are you relying on your numbers" Patriarch Bi Xu glared at Lu Xia Tian as a matter of course, and asked in a deep voice.

Although Bi Xu Ancestor did not intentionally release any pressure towards Lu Xia Tian, just a glance from him made Lu Xia Tian feel like a tiny infant being stared at by a ferocious beast. There was no room for resistance whatsoever. His whole body felt as if he was standing in the icy snow, with nowhere to hide. Lu Xia Tian's heart pounded with fear. What if the other party discovered the barrier within him Luckily, the other party scanned him over and didn't seem to notice anything amiss. Even so, Lu Xia Tian still felt like a mountain was pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe. In an instant, his legs felt like they were filled with lead, his body incredibly heavy. He could barely stand as his legs trembled threateningly, about to buckle under him. Yet, he gritted his teeth and persisted.The few cultivators beside Lu Xia Tian who were closer couldn't bear the pressure any longer. They collapsed onto the ground with beads of sweat pouring down their faces.

The girl in the blue dress saw the powerful presence of Patriarch Bi Su, forcing Lu Xia Tian. She couldn't help but clench her hands, digging her nails into her flesh. But at this moment, there were different factions within their sect, leaving her helpless. All she could do was watch helplessly, her eyes filled with panic.

"Bi Xu Laogui, you are a Jindan cultivator, and you actually attack a junior Isn't it embarrassing" Lu Xiaoteng obtained so many spiritual objects, and he even robbed Yuan Hao from the Gu Jianzong. This was the key to turning his losing battle into a winning one. Huo Yueming naturally had a displeased expression, and directly reached out, a gust of wind passing through, blocking Bi Xu Ancestor's terrifying pressure.

"Hmph, that also needs to be explained. How could this kid steal the storage bag from my disciple Yuan Hao Otherwise, if it was based on strength or sheer numbers, wouldn't our disciples from the Ancient Sword Sect be able to take it back as well" Bi Xu Ancestor saw Huo Yu Ming make his move and unnaturally retracted his aura, saying.

Lu Xia Tian and Peng Da beside him, along with several other cultivators, felt the pressure on their bodies lift. They were like fish leaping back into water, gasping for breath. Their faces were pale with shock as they looked at each other. A Jindan cultivator was truly terrifying! However, this old fellow had lived for hundreds of years and disregarded his status to such an extent. Lu Xia Tian couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart. Huo Yu Ming and Lei Wan Tian, both Jindan ancestors, were also present. He suppressed the discomfort in his body and gritted his teeth, saying, “This ancestor from Gu Jianzong, our Ling Xiao Palace cultivators had been fighting alongside your Gu Jianzong cultivators, overcoming many difficulties together. But Yuan Hao harbored evil intentions. Taking advantage of my separation from my comrades, he tried to rob me and even take my life because of his own strength. In the end, I managed to defeat him in a fierce battle. Considering that Yuan Hao was a disciple of Gu Jianzong, I didn't kill him, but only took his storage pouch as punishment.”

"Can you defeat Yuan Hao" Bi Xu Zuoshi asked suspiciously. He was very clear about Yuan Hao's strength, the Lieyang Twin-Arm Sword should be unrivaled among Qi Refining disciples.

"He's just a little stronger." Lu Xia Tian, with Huo Yuming and Lei Wanting supporting him, no longer feared the Bishu Old Monster. His words became more confident. As for the matter of Zhu Yu Chun, if he directly pointed out that Gu Jianzong might have cultivated an insider in Lingxiao Palace, it would be a serious accusation, making both sides unhappy. He hadn't brought it up yet.

"Bi Xu Lao Gui, this is a gamble, you win or lose. Could it be that our Lingxiao Palace can't cultivate excellent disciples Your disciples from the Gujian Sect haven't even spoken, the matter is clear. I say, Lu Xia Tian taking only his storage pouch already favors him. He gave your sect immense face. Other sects would have killed him long ago. Now are you trying to settle scores after the fact" Lei Wan Tian was a straightforward person. Seeing Bi Xu Lao Gui dwell on this issue, he retorted with an unpleasant expression.

"I'm just a little surprised, as if I were a person who goes back on their word." Bi Xu Ancestor puffed out his beard and glared, directly tossing a few drops of emerald blood crystals to Huo Yu Ming. Then, with an unpleasant expression, he scolded Yuan Hao, "Get back, stand there making yourself look like a fool!"

Yuan Hao's face turned red and white, he wished he could find a crack in the ground to hide in. Under the scolding of the Jindan ancestor, Yuan Hao could only retreat dejectedly and return to the disciple ranks of Gujian Sect. However, his resentment towards Lu Xia Tian grew even deeper.

The Black Staff, a Golden Core ancestor surnamed Jin from Qingdan Palace, saw that the atmosphere was not right and decided not to add fuel to the fire. Moreover, he was in a very bad mood. Not only did he lose to Gujian Sect, but he was also outdone by Lingxiaogong. After handing over the wager to Bixu ancestor, he directly led his disciples back to Qingdan Palace's flying warship.

Although Lu Xia Tian had some doubts about the blue-skirted girl from Gu Jianzong, he knew this wasn't the time to speak up. Gu Jianzong had made it clear they wanted them gone. So, they were carried back onto the Flying Swallow Warship by Huo Yu Ming.

"Raise the sails, return to Lingxiao Palace," Huo Yuming, back on the Feiyuan warship, was in high spirits and waved his hand with vigor. The Qi Refining cultivators accompanying him to Lingxiao Palace started raising the sails. Under the tremors of spiritual energy, the Feiyuan warship shot forward like an arrow, dashing towards the distant Lingxiao Palace.

Standing on the railing of the Flying Roc warship, Lu Xia Tian leaned against the solid spiritwood hull, watching the clouds swirling beneath him. He had never felt this calm before.

Since embarking on the path of cultivation, Lu Xia Tian was for the first time relaxing his mind to admire the clouds at the horizon. Because before this, he had no time, nor the mood. He had to constantly rack his brains to enhance his strength, allowing himself to survive in one adventure after another. To earn more spirit stones, to refine more pills. In order to build a foundation, just like other cultivators, he countless times risked his life in adventures. Until now, coming out of the Blood Forbidden Land, the spiritual objects he had gained could be exchanged for over thirty Foundation Establishment Pills. Even if his aptitude was poor, success in establishing a foundation was a certainty. The goal he had been striving for had finally been achieved. After entering the Foundation Establishment period, with two or three hundred years of lifespan, time became relatively more abundant.

"Hey, Lu Xiaottian, Lord Huo wants to see you." Maybe it was back on the Flying Crane Warship, unlike in the Blood-Colored Forbidden Land where she needed Lu Xiaottian's guidance. Su Qing called out his name again. There was a hint of her usual petulance back on her face, and she seemed to have regained that air of being the center of the world again.

"Master Huo, what did he want me for again" Lu Xiaoteng asked in surprise.

“How should I know, it’ll be clear once we go. Don't worry, nothing bad will happen.” Su Qing said.

His title changed rather quickly, it seemed. One shouldn't be so realistic in life, Lu XiaTian mumbled to himself and walked towards the ship deck where Huo YuMing was located. In the middle of the FeiYan battle ship, there was a two-story building. Though it couldn't compare to the multi-story towers on the GuJian Sect's FeiTian battle ship, it was more than enough for the two Jindan ancestors to use.

"Greetings, Old Master Huo and Old Master Lei." After entering the room, Lu Xia Tian discovered that Lei Wanting was also here. He hurriedly bowed to the two and performed a respectful greeting.iao beads, perhaps sensing the powerful external threat, released purple-red beams of light that formed a faint barrier. Looking through the barrier, the positions of the two Muqiao beads were errati...
