Eternal life begins with saving my clan-Chapter 89: Second-Class Guest Elder

The communication talisman dimmed. But Shen Ping's voice echoed in Mu Jin's ears.

Huiquan Alley, a small courtyard…

She sat cross-legged on the soft cushion and straightened her back. After being stunned for a long time, she came back to her senses and hurriedly took out the jade slip from her storage bag.

The jade slip contained the detailed distribution of the alleys in Qingyang City. She found Huiquan Alley. Although it was not located in the core of Qingyang City, it was around the bustling street in the center. That location was not too far from the core of the Level Three spiritual vein at the bottom of the lake.

"A small courtyard. This is Qingyang City!" Mu Jin sighed faintly. The satisfaction in her eyes slowly disappeared, and she was somewhat dispirited, her waist softened. The outline of the honeydew in front of her robe was clearly visible. "Second-grade guest elder."

She half bit her lower lip. She clenched her fists tightly and let go of her arm after a long time. "It's so difficult." In the end, she repeated, "It's really too difficult."

…

The next day, at the entrance of the thirteenth courtyard in Huiquan Alley, Class B.

Shen Ping brought his wife and concubines into the courtyard. He swept his gaze around. The overall layout of the small courtyard was almost the same as the single courtyard of Cloud Mountain Parlour, but there were two additional rooms. One of them was the spiritual pool's quiet room, and the other was the pill furnace room.

The courtyard was a little wider. There was actually a spirit field that had been cultivated in the southeast corner. Although there was only a small piece, it made people feel warm.

"Husband, are we staying here forever in the future?" Bai Yuying looked back and forth in the small courtyard excitedly. She did not know the annual rental fee of the small courtyard, but she knew that it must be very expensive. One could not even afford to rent it at the late stage of Qi Refinement or even at the perfection stage.

She was proud that her husband could rent it, and even more glad that she had called him in Red Willow Alley back then.

Shen Ping smiled and nodded. "Stay in the courtyard now." After saying that, he went to the various rooms to check. After confirming that there was nothing else, he let his wife and concubines walk in. He went to the quiet room of the Spirit Pool.

As soon as he stepped in, he could not help but shiver. The spiritual energy in the quiet room almost condensed into a fog. With a breath, the meridians and blood in his dantian seemed to be cheering.

He sat down cross-legged and calmly circulated his cultivation technique.

Boom.

The top-grade spiritual root crazily absorbed the spiritual fog and circulated it through his dantian through his meridians to the circulation of the cycle. Usually, it would take him six hours to meditate for a small cycle, but now, he had completed the small cycle in just three hours.

"It's worth it!" Shen Ping opened his eyes with a smile. The rental fee for the small courtyard was indeed very high, but it was worth it.

There was hope for Bai Yuying and Yu Yan to build their foundation when they cultivate in such an environment. If they combined spirit liquid, medicinal pills, and the support of resources like the Snow Ganoderma Pill, they would probably build their foundation even earlier.

Most importantly, with the spiritual pool's supply, the purity of their spiritual energy would also be very high.

…

It was late at night. It was not even dawn when the long-awaited smell of flower petals filled the room.

Yu Yan rarely took a bath after cultivating the Thousand Faces Charm Technique, but this time, she specially added pollen to the hot water and took off her robe. The curves of the single gauze dress were faintly discernible. The combination of the Inner Charm Fire Body and the bewitching technique quietly changed the water on her skin.

She soaked in the wooden barrel. She closed her eyes and waited. Footsteps sounded outside the door, and a familiar broad figure appeared. As soon as she opened her eyes, sparks flickered in them.

Surprisingly, Shen Ping was not anxious. Instead, he was also soaking in the flower petal-scented water. His voice was rare and gentle. "Yu Yan, today will be our first time being reborn."

Yu Yan was stunned. Cloud Mountain Parlour seemed to appear in her eyes, Red Willow Alley, Yunhe Alley… Scenes flashed. There was despair, joy, pain, struggle, and endless companionship. As she thought about it, her eyes became gentle, and love surged from them.

Today was her husband's rebirth. However, this was not the first time. If not for her husband, she would have long died from the corrosion of the Black-striped Venomous Worm.

The sound of water rippled. Yu Yan moved closer to Shen Ping. As the steam rose, their lips touched lightly. "Husband, it's my fortune to meet you." Tears welled up in the corners of Yu Yan's eyes. She held Shen Ping's palm and placed it in front of her. "It's beating."

Shen Ping did not respond and lowered his head to kiss her.

A long time passed. The hot air enveloped the two of them, and they were already tightly connected.

Five days passed.

Shen Ping received Shopkeeper Ding's invitation and went to a restaurant not far from the True Treasure Pavilion to gather. He seriously let his wife wash him up before changing into a decent long robe and coming to this restaurant.

In the private room, Guest Elder Cui and several other Guest Elders he knew were gathered here.

"Talisman Master Shen is here. Please, take a seat." Shopkeeper Ding stood up enthusiastically.

Shen Ping cupped his hands and greeted them one by one. "Senior Qu!" Finally, he bowed to Shopkeeper Qu.

Shopkeeper Qu stroked his beard and smiled. "Talisman Master Shen is a good person."

Guest Elder Cui immediately smiled and said, "That's right. We're already very lucky to be able to leave a dangerous place like Cloud Mountain Parlour. How would we dare to send our Dao Companion away like Talisman Master Shen?"

Guest Elder Ruan and Guest Elder Luo nodded.

Shen Ping hurriedly said, "I had no choice. Before I joined the True Treasure Pavilion, I was already related to Spring Garden."

He briefly explained the reason.

Shopkeeper Qu came to a realization. He gently knocked on the table and pondered for a moment before saying, "Spring Garden's background is not small. Talisman Master Shen, you have to be careful when dealing with them in the future. Don't fall into their trap."

Shen Ping nodded repeatedly. After sitting down, they briefly introduced the other two unfamiliar guest elders. Then, after waiting for about two cups of tea, a rough-looking cultivator arrived. All the cultivators in the private room, including Shopkeeper Qu, stood up to welcome him.

Shen Ping hurriedly followed.

"I'm too late. Fellow Daoists, sorry to keep you waiting." The rough cultivator grinned and took a sip of the spirit wine on the table. "Not bad, it's good wine. The wine in this Virtue Tower is dry and strong. Old Ding, you've put in some effort."

Shopkeeper Ding smiled bitterly. "Senior Chong, stop mocking me. Hurry up and sit down."

Although the cultivator surnamed Chong deliberately restrained his spiritual pressure, he was clearly stronger than Shopkeeper Qu. He seemed to be at the late-stage Foundation Establishment Realm. From the looks of it, he was only slightly older than Shopkeeper Ding, but he might have taken the Beauty Pill.

"Fellow Daoists, I, Chong Ji, is someone who abhors evil. I'm a guest law enforcer in the True Treasure Pavilion." He laughed wildly.

Shen Ping, Guest Elder Cui, and the others' expressions turned cold.

Most of the people in the True Treasure Pavilion were Talisman Masters and Alchemy Masters with skills. Therefore, when the assessment recruited cultivators who mainly focused on killing and fighting, they were especially strict and serious. As long as they could enter the True Treasure Pavilion, they would have a lot of experience and methods.

Shopkeeper Ding smiled and added, "Guest Elder Chong is a second-grade Guest Elder."

As soon as he said this, the other guest elders cupped their hands solemnly. "Greetings, Guest Elder Chong!"

Guest Elder Chong waved his hand and said indifferently, "Don't do this. Since I'm here, I'm showing respect to Old Ding. Fellow Daoists, we'll be acquaintances in the future." He was very straightforward.

Shen Ping thought to himself that since he could become a second-grade guest, he was definitely not a simple person. After that, Shopkeeper Ding chatted about a few interesting things to liven up the atmosphere in the private room. After drinking dozens of cups of spirit wine, they became more harmonious.

"You can become a guest elder at the eighth level of Qi Refinement. Talisman Master Shen seems to have some standard in the Dao of Talismans." Guest Elder Chong looked at Shen Ping casually. "I have a disciple who likes to study the Dao of Talismans. It's just that his talent is ordinary. Level Two Talisman Masters like Guest Elder Cui are a little high for him.

However, Talisman Master Shen is quite suitable. When he's free later, I'll get him to visit. It would be best if Talisman Master Shen could guide him."

Shopkeeper Ding hurriedly said, "Senior Chong, you've found the right person. Talisman Master Shen's Dao of Talismans is even praised endlessly by Guest Elder Cui and the others."

As he spoke, he gave Shen Ping a look. Shen Ping hurriedly cupped his hands. "Senior Chong is too polite. I will definitely do my best."

Guest Elder Chong grinned and said, "He's just a mid-grade Talisman Master. Talisman Master Shen can just give him some pointers. By the way, where does Talisman Master Shen live?"

Shen Ping immediately replied, "Huiquan Alley."

Guest Elder Chong was stunned. The private room fell silent.

"Seniors, my divine sense is relatively deep. It has already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, so I can barely make Level 2 talismans." Shen Ping realized that something was wrong and hurriedly stood up to explain.

Guest Elder Chong laughed. " Talisman Master Shen, you're amazing!"
