Chapter 833: 742 returns to Qianling Sect

Time flew by swiftly; two years had passed.

Qingyue Pavilion, Chu Buyu sat in the main seat with Yao Fugui sitting beside him, engaging in casual conversation.

"Senior Shen has ascended to the Unity Realm? Congratulations, congratulations."

Yao Fugui extended his felicitations.

"Daoist Yao, you didn’t come to us just to offer congratulations, did you?"

Chu Buyu spoke.

After moving into Qingyue Pavilion, Shen Long had been cultivating in the Myriad Beasts Tower all the time, while Chu Buyu and other Void Refinement Cultivators mingled, gathering resources.

"I have a Green Lotus Flower more than twenty thousand years old that I plan to offer to Senior Shen as a token to celebrate his ascension to the Unity Realm."

As Yao Fugui stated this, he took out a beautifully crafted green Jade Box and handed it over to Chu Buyu.

"No rewards without merit; if you have something to say, Daoist Yao, just say it!"

A deep male voice rang out.

As soon as the voice died away, Shen Long emerged from a bluestone corridor.

He had spent two years refining a furnace of White Tiger Pills; refining seventh-tier elixirs took longer. If the Qinglian True Flame could be elevated to the seventh tier, it would shorten the elixir refining time.

Upon seeing Shen Long, Yao Fugui quickly stood up, bowed respectfully, and said, "Junior greets Senior Shen."

Being only in the Void Refinement Late Stage, Yao Fugui didn’t dare to be negligent.

"If you have something to say, speak plainly."

Shen Long said.

"I would like to purchase a sixth-tier Mutated Spirit Beast from Senior Shen; I wonder if you could do me the favor."

Yao Fugui politely stated.

"Do me a favor? Do you think Mutated Spirit Beasts are that common?"

Shen Long replied uncharitably, then his tone softened, "Wanting a sixth-tier Mutated Spirit Beast isn’t impossible; it depends on what you can offer. If you bring something good, I might consider it."

"Okay, the Green Lotus Flower shall serve as a deposit! When the junior gathers some worthy items, I will come to Senior Shen."

Yao Fugui declared.

Shen Long flicked his sleeve, and a blue Jade Slip shot out, landing in the hands of Yao Fugui.

"We are looking for these materials. If you can procure them, I can sell you a sixth-tier Mutated Spirit Beast."

Shen Long stated.

Yao Fugui scanned the Jade Slip with his Divine Sense, his eyes flashing with surprise—the items listed were all very precious.

"I will keep an eye out and notify Senior Shen as soon as there is news."

Yao Fugui said.

"If there is news, you can find us at the Qianling Sect."

Shen Long said.

Yao Fugui patted his chest, promising, made a few more attempts at small talk, and then took his leave.

Chu Buyu took out a red, shimmering Law Disk, input a spell, and a clear male voice emerged, "Fairy Chu, our merchant ship will set sail in half an hour. Has Senior Shen not left seclusion yet?"

"My husband has already left seclusion; we’re on our way."

After saying this, Chu Buyu put away the Law Disk.

"Husband, the Liuyun Trade Alliance’s merchant ship is preparing to sail back to Green Lotus Continent."

Chu Buyu reported.

Shen Long nodded and said, "Let’s head over! We left Green Lotus Continent thousands of years ago; I wonder how the Qianling Sect is faring now."

They left Qingyue Pavilion and arrived outside the marketplace.

A Golden Colossal Ship over a hundred zhang in length floated on the sea, with a seventy-two-story golden pavilion atop it, and the sails bore the two characters for "Liuyun."

A group of Cultivators was lined up to board the ship, with a tall and lanky man in a golden shirt checking tickets.

Shen Long and Chu Buyu joined the queue, and before long, they boarded the Liuyun vessel.

A medium-built youth in a blue shirt hurried over, bowed deeply, and said, "Junior Liu Lang here. Elder Li has already notified us; Senior Shen, Fairy Chu, your tickets are on the house. Please follow me this way."

The other passengers looked on with envy; clearly, Shen Long and Chu Buyu were esteemed guests of the Liuyun Trade Alliance to receive such treatment.

Shen Long and Chu Buyu followed Liu Lang into a cabin and settled in.

After half an hour, the Liuyun vessel set sail, flying high into the sky and quickly disappearing into the horizon.

······

Tianyuan Mountain Range, Thunder Centipede Garden.

Bian Ting sat in the Stone Pavilion, his gaze somber, as Bian Feng and Yin Yue stood by his side.

During the great war between races, Bian Ting had traveled abroad and stumbled upon a great opportunity, allowing him to ascend into the Integration Early Stage.

He had never expected that Shen Long would have reached the Void Refinement Phase, and that his Divine Skills would be significant.

"A mutated sixth-grade Flood Dragon! This man’s fortunes are not small!"

Bian Ting frowned as he spoke.

"No matter how great his fortunes are, after all, he’s just a Void Refinement Cultivator and not a match for Elder Bian."

Yin Yue’s face was full of flattery.

"Yes! If this person shows up, Elder Bian will eliminate him with ease."

Bian Feng echoed in agreement.

"If this person shows up, notify me immediately. We absolutely cannot let him grow stronger."

Bian Ting instructed.

"Yes, Elder Bian."

Yin Yue and Bian Feng simultaneously agreed.

······

Qianling Sect, a vast estate with a signboard that read "Red Flood Dragon Garden" in three large red characters. A voluptuous woman in a red dress sat within a red Stone Pavilion.

Mo Bingbing stood by her side, her expression respectful.

"Senior Brother Wu has ascended to the Late Stage? That’s great."

The woman in the red dress smiled broadly.

Qin Wei, in the Mid-Unity stage.

She had traveled abroad for many years and had just returned not long ago.

"Master went out to find opportunities and has been gone for thousands of years. Now our sect boasts five Unity Cultivators."

Mo Bingbing reported with pride on her face.

She took out a Messaging Plate, flickering with white light, and input a spell. The voice of Huang Lei rang out, "Senior Sister Mo, Uncle Shen, and Junior Sister Chu have returned."

"Uncle Shen? Which Uncle Shen?"

Mo Bingbing was slightly stunned, as there were no Unity Cultivators surnamed Shen in Qianling Sect!

"Uncle Shen Long; he has ascended to the Unity Realm," said Huang Lei.

"What? He has ascended to the Unity Realm?"

Mo Bingbing was shocked. She had never expected that Shen Long would reach the Unity Realm.

When Shen Long had just ascended, Mo Bingbing was already in the Void Refinement Phase, and now Shen Long had reached the Unity Realm, while Mo Bingbing was still in the Void Refinement Phase.

"Heaven blesses our Qianling Sect. Now we have six Unity Cultivators. Master Nephew Mo, please invite Junior Brother Shen over. I would like to have a chat with him,"

Qin Wei instructed.

Mo Bingbing acknowledged and said, "Junior Brother Huang, please invite Uncle Shen to the Red Flood Dragon Garden. Master Aunt Qin wishes to meet him."

"Understood, I’ll get right on it."

Huang Lei agreed and cut off the communication.

Mo Bingbing put away the Messaging Plate, her expression excited.

"I can’t believe my words came true. Junior Brother Shen has not returned for so many years because he had indeed encountered a great opportunity, ascending to the Unity Realm."

Mo Bingbing’s face beamed with a smile.

"Junior Brother Shen’s speed of cultivation is very fast! He must have had some great opportunity,"

Qin Wei speculated. She took out an exquisite green tea can and instructed, "Master Nephew Mo, please brew a fresh pot of Spiritual Tea."

Mo Bingbing complied, and as she brewed the Spiritual Tea, Shen Long and Huang Lei also arrived.

Shen Long and Chu Buyu had followed the Liuyun Trade Alliance’s merchant ship to return to the Green Lotus Continent. Upon their arrival, they hastened back to the Qianling Sect.

"Junior Brother Shen Long, greets Senior Sister Qin,"

Shen Long said, clasping his fist, his tone cordial.

He had long heard of Qin Wei, who had a sixth-grade Red Fire Flood Dragon, a well-known fact to everyone.

"Junior Brother Shen, please, no need for formalities, have a seat,"

Qin Wei smiled slightly and gestured for Shen Long to sit down.
