Chapter 1022: 931 Yang Family’s Recruitment

Qianling Garden, Lin Qingshan, Wang Tianyang, Chen Yin, and more than a dozen other Mahayana Cultivators were sitting in a Green Stone Pavilion, sipping tea and chatting leisurely.

"Someone previously said that Taoist Friend Shen lacked the strength of a Heaven Venerable. This time, now that Taoist Friend Shen has slain the Blood Spirit Son and Li Earth Turtle, let’s see who dares to question his strength."

Wang Tianyang praised.

"Indeed! Some from Different Clans also doubted, believing that no Heaven Venerable could emerge from the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot. Now let’s see what they say."

Ni Tianting said excitedly.

He had already ascended to the Mahayana Realm, and the Ni Family had a fairly good relationship with the Qianling Sect.

The Ni Family, the Wang Family, and the Fire Fusion Clan provide raw materials to the Qianling Sect; in exchange, the Qianling Sect supplies them with resources, creating a community of shared interests.

The trade caravans of the Qianling Sect travel to other domains for commerce, and the trade caravans of these three powers follow suit. The better the development of the Qianling Sect, the more benefits they reap.

The more support you have when you are on the right path, the less you have when you are not. The Qianling Sect has rallied the forces that can be united, forging a huge collective interest. They possess considerable influence over more than a hundred domains surrounding the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot.

"Taoist Friend Lin, will Taoist Friend Shen and Fairy Chu show up at the auction this time?"

Chen Yin asked curiously.

"I’m not sure. If the master returns, I will report to him."

Lin Qingshan replied with a smile on his face.

"Taoist Friends, long time no see. How have you all been recently?"

A hearty male voice rang out.

As soon as the voice faded, Shen Long walked in, smiling.

After leaving Duobao Cave Haven, Shen Long rushed back to the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot as quickly as possible.

For the Qianling Sect’s first large-scale auction aimed at Mahayana Cultivators, Shen Long needed to make an appearance. Doing so would also attract more Mahayana Cultivators to participate in the auction.

"Master! You’re back."

Lin Qingshan was overjoyed and stood up.

"Taoist Friend Shen, it’s been a long time."

Chen Yin and the other Mahayana Cultivators also stood up to greet Shen Long.

"Long time no see. Taoist Friends, you are all old acquaintances of mine, no need to be formal. Please, sit."

Shen Long invited them to sit down.

He took a seat in the Stone Pavilion, and after Chen Yin and the others sat down again, Lin Qingshan remained standing.

"Try the Spiritual Tea I brought back from the Blue Snail Realm."

Shen Long took out an exquisitely made green tea can and handed it to Lin Qingshan.

Lin Qingshan opened the tea can, scooped out the tea leaves, and started brewing.

Before long, a pot of steaming Spiritual Tea was ready. Lin Qingshan, holding the teapot, first poured a cup for Shen Long and then for the other Cultivators.

The fragrance of the tea filled the air, and upon smelling it, Chen Yin felt invigorated.

"Taoist Friend Shen, this must be the unique Silver Dew Jade Soul Tea from the Blue Snail Realm! It’s said to be exclusively produced by the Heaven Spring Sect, and that the age of the Silver Dew Jade Soul tea tree exceeds a million years; only once every hundred thousand years can it be harvested, yielding less than a hundred catties per harvest."

Chen Yin said with a smile, sipping the Spiritual Tea.

The Silver Dew Jade Soul Tea is known for strengthening the Divine Soul, and only Mahayana Cultivators are privileged to enjoy such Spiritual Tea.

"Indeed, excellent tea. I have Taoist Friend Shen to thank for the opportunity to enjoy such Spiritual Tea," Ni Yubai said, after taking a sip of the tea and praising it.

"The Heaven Spring Sect has now become a subsidiary power of our Qianling Sect. Madam Xu from the Heaven Spring Sect gifted me some tea leaves. If Taoist Friends like it, feel free to drink several cups," Shen Long said with a smile.

On this trip, Shen Long had taken the Heaven Spring Sect under his wing. The Heaven Spring Sect is known for its production of various types of Spiritual Teas, each with different effects.

"Heaven Spring Sect has become an affiliate of Qianling Sect? Congratulations!"

Wang Tianyang spoke with congratulations, his face full of envy.

Chen Yin, Ni Tianting, and others also offered their congratulations. After chatting idly for the better part of an hour, they took their leave.

"Qingshan, in some time, Madam Xu from Heaven Spring Sect will visit Qianling Sect. Have Senior Sister Mo liaise with Madam Xu, and have Heaven Spring Sect provide us with various Spiritual Teas and Tianhe Divine Milk. This matter is a secret within Qianling Sect."

Shen Long instructed.

Tianhe Divine Milk is a naturally occurring Spiritual Object that takes tens of thousands, even millions of years to form. It shares a marvelous similarity with the Seven Stars True Spirit Fruit and can assist Spirit Beasts in their cultivation to become True Spirits.

The sacred ground of the Heaven Spring Sect produces Tianhe Divine Milk, managing to produce a single drop every hundred thousand years or so, which is a secret of the Heaven Spring Sect. So far, the Heaven Spring Sect has only

When Shen Long passed through the Blue Snail Realm, the Great Elder of Heaven Spring Sect sought him out, hoping to pledge allegiance to Qianling Sect. Considering the Tianhe Divine Milk and a batch of two-hundred-thousand-year-old Spiritual Medicines, Shen Long agreed.

"Yes, Master."

Lin Qingshan readily agreed.

Mo Bingbing has already advanced to the Mahayana phase; she continues to act as the Sect Leader, which is also one of the facets of a super sect’s reputation.

Chu Buyu walked in, her face beaming with smiles.

She had ascended to the Middle Stage of Mahayana and had refined the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox’s Beast Hide into a Xuantian Treasure, the Sky Fox Banner. The Treasure contained the Spirit Soul of the Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox and was capable of Transformation attacks.

Shen Mei has advanced to True Spirit. Shen Long had no use for the Sky Fox Banner, which as one of the treasures of Qianling Sect, significantly enhanced the foundation of the sect.

"Madam has ascended to the Middle Stage of Mahayana, that’s wonderful."

Shen Long’s face showed delight.

"I just emerged from seclusion, and I heard that my husband has slain Xuelingzi and the True Spirit Earth Turtle. Now no one can question my husband’s strength."

Chu Buyu said with a light and graceful smile.

She had cultivated her Spirit Domain to minor accomplishment, still a distance away from major accomplishment.

It is not to say that by consuming the Nine Orifices Daofruit Pill, one could definitely cultivate their Spirit Domain to major accomplishment; it differs from person to person.

Lin Qingshan took out a Law Disk shimmering with Spiritual Light, input a spell, and said, "Master, Taoist Friend Yang Yixin has come to visit, specifically asking to see you and Madam."

"Please let Taoist Friend Yang in!"

Shen Long ordered.

Lin Qingshan responded and went to carry out the command.

Chu Buyu took a seat in the Stone Pavilion, and shortly after, Yang Yixin entered.

"Eh, Fairy Chu has ascended to the Middle Stage of Mahayana, congratulations!"

Yang Yixin exclaimed softly, offering his congratulations.

"Taoist Friend Yang, long time no see. I thought you had ascended to the Late Stage,"

Shen Long’s tone was warm, inviting Yang Yixin to sit.

"I am stuck at a bottleneck, but it’s only a matter of time before I resolve it. For Taoist Friend Shen and Fairy Chu, ascending to the Late Stage of Mahayana is just a matter of time. The Ninety-Nine Heavenly Tribulations are the one difficulty you must face. Many fellow cultivators have managed to reach the Late Stage of Mahayana only to be struck dead by the Ninety-Nine Heavenly Tribulations."

Yang Yixin’s expression was solemn.

Shen Long nodded: "The Ninety-Nine Heavenly Tribulations are indeed formidable. Taoist Friend Yang, your Yang Family has a long heritage; you must have something to weaken the Tribulations, right?"

"Of course, we have Miracle Elixirs that can weaken the Tribulations, increasing the chance of overcoming the Ninety-Nine Heavenly Tribulations. It wouldn’t be difficult for Taoist Friend Shen to obtain such things. The trouble is after ascending to the Immortal Realm, I wonder if Taoist Friend Shen has considered the situation after ascension."

Yang Yixin said with a profound meaning.

"What does Taoist Friend Yang mean by that? Please speak plainly."

Shen Long asked seriously.

"Our Yang Family has established a family in the Qihong Immortal Domain of the Immortal Realm, with a Taiyi Golden Immortal in residence. Our Yang Family has a bit of renown in the Qihong Immortal Domain. Does Taoist Friend Shen have any interest in joining our Yang Family? Once in the Immortal Realm, our Yang Family can provide resources, Cultivation Techniques, and Treasures."

Yang Yixin spoke enthusiastically.
