After the late stage of fusion, Chen Huaian spent half an hour, which cost ten thousand coins per minute.
Therefore, he could still stay in the Cangyun Realm for a while.
As for why not stay longer?
Just look at this terrifying expense; if there was no restraint, let alone ten billion coins, even one trillion wouldn’t be enough.
Moreover, distance creates beauty.
It’s better to just rub against and then leave, so that Qingran would think of him every day.
It’s absolutely not because his avatar couldn’t reach Qingran or eat raisins, so he decided not to eat either.
To facilitate travel for Li Qingran and others, Chen Huaian bought a medium-sized flying boat.
Nowadays, electronic girlfriend stores corresponding to the middle foundation-building stage can directly purchase medium-sized flying boats.
On the flying boat, Su Qinian was full of laughter on his face, like it was the New Year: “All of you have traveled far and wide, why don’t you have a meal with me? Don’t worry, though the Sword Pavilion is poor, the hospitality is very stable.”
“Uh, Su Pavilion Master, I still have pills cooking in my alchemy furnace, I’ll take my leave first…” Zhou Xuanzi smiled awkwardly and was the first to bid farewell.
“Oh, I remember that one of my spirit beasts is having difficulty giving birth, I need to go back and solve it immediately.” The elder of the Beast Taming Sect also left.
“The monk should also go out to beg for alms…”
Each had their own reasons, and soon they were all gone.
Su Qinian looked at the group of fleeing transformation-stage cultivators and was confused inside.
He was happy today!
His ancestor put on a big show, helping the Cangyun Realm eliminate a major threat, and it was time for his Sword Pavilion to regain its pride and change its reputation. After overcoming psychological pressure, he prepared to host a banquet, but these people all fled quickly.
“How strange, usually these old guys would try to scrape two layers of oil off me, how come they are so polite today?”
“Not really, do you have any idea?” Yue Qianchi nodded toward Chen Huaian, who was guarding beside Li Qingran without leaving her side, even activating a killing array: “Look, the ancestor is here. Do you see how the killing array is activated? There are tens of thousands of spiritual energy swords hanging above the flying boat, the sword intent makes the sky dark, who dares to stay with you?”
Su Qinian looked back and was scared stiff.
He saw countless swords cutting through the sky, lightning splitting the heavens—wherever the sword formation passed, heaven and earth were both imprisoned.
Is this protection?
This might as well destroy some sects completely.
“Well, well, this is good too, at least it saves ten low-grade spirit stones.” He shook his head, walked with his hands behind his back, and honestly found a chair to sit in the flying boat. Since Li Qingran had gained insight from Chen Huaian’s sword techniques, he also needed to digest it.
“Ten low-grade spirit stones…” Yue Qianchi sneered.
Hmph, such stinginess.
Fortunately, those transformation-stage cultivators didn’t stay for food and drink, otherwise the little face that the Sword Pavilion just earned would be lost entirely.
Even if it’s a banquet, it would at least cost twenty low-grade spirit stones…
…
Chen Huaian was currently showing off.
But he wasn’t doing it just for the sake of showing off.
Rather, because Li Qingran had another epiphany, he was protecting her.
As for why it had to make such a big commotion?
Usually, he and Li Qingran rarely saw each other, now that they did, of course, he wanted to give her the best.
Protection naturally had to be comprehensive.
Seeing that Li Qingran still needed some time for enlightenment,
Chen Huaian began to study the gains from this battle.
After killing the magic Buddha’s image, equipment did not drop immediately but after a few minutes, only a fragment of a demon cultivator appeared. In addition, there was also a main volume of the “Great Demon Law,” clearly the cultivation method practiced by the mastermind behind the scenes.
What he was more concerned about was:
This demon cultivator should have been crushed by him, but the actual magical image was restored with the help of some force. Later, the magical image of the Buddha clearly wasn’t controlled by him alone, and the pure, upright part of the Buddha in the magical image obviously came from a very orthodox Buddhist cultivation method…
Regarding this point,
He asked the Zen Sect leader.
But the monk also couldn’t say much.
Only said that there were quite a few wandering cultivators in the Cangyun Realm practicing the Buddhist cultivation method.
The Buddhist precepts were strict, many Buddhist cultivators were expelled for breaking the rules.
For example, Smiling Buddha Leng Chanxin was a typical representative.
So many years have passed, who knows how many are wandering outside?
There may be one or two extremely powerful ones among them.
“I always feel there’s something fishy… Could we be dealing with someone else behind the scenes?” Chen Huaian narrowed his eyes, just in case, he would perform another Tianji divination.
The previous divination increased fifty levels, and there were still fifty levels of operational space, which should be enough.
“Help this venerable one calculate who the mastermind behind the young lord of the Celestial Demon Sect is?”
In Chen Huaian’s vision, the customer service interface loading circle turned for a long time before popping up a prompt box:
[The target has been obscured by a Dao vessel. If you forcibly calculate, it will increase the ‘fortune loss’ status by at least 2000 levels. With the player’s current strength, he cannot withstand more than 1000 levels of fortune loss. Please try again after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.]
“A Dao vessel?!” Chen Huaian frowned.
This was the first time the Tianji divination failed.
He changed the question: “What is a Dao vessel?”
[This is the fourth divination of the day, it will cost you 10,000￥, this divination will not increase your levels of fortune loss.]
My goodness, so expensive?!
Chen Huaian fell silent for a moment, raised his eyes, and looked at Su Qinian meditating in the opposite room, an idea struck him: “Su Pavilion Master, come over here, this venerable one will test you.”
…
“Su Pavilion Master, what is a Dao vessel?”
“Uh, a Dao vessel is a spiritual artifact that possesses a trace of Dao principles. These kinds of spiritual artifacts or treasures have various wondrous uses… There is also another saying, highly talented cultivators with great fortune can also be refined into Dao vessels, but generally, they are used by old monsters of the Demon Sect when their lifespan is almost over for soul snatching.”
“Nice, it seems your knowledge is solid, you can leave now.”
Su Qinian’s smile froze on his face: “Ah, uh, aren’t you going to ask anything else?”
Chen Huaian closed his eyes: “No questions.”
Su Qinian: “???”
Not really, where’s his opportunity?
Where’s the guidance from the ancestor?
Just asking a question that any transformation-stage cultivator would know and then letting him go?
Pulling legs mercilessly, right?!
He looked at the re-closed-eyed ancestor hesitantly, ultimately choosing to remain silent.
Perhaps, the ancestor has his own thoughts, the ancestor is a Void-level strong cultivator, every action has deep meaning.
Absolutely not something he can speculate on, he just needs to listen.
Su Qinian pouted, looking gloomy as he returned to his cushion, casting resentful glances at Chen Huaian from time to time.
Chen Huaian felt Su Qinian’s gaze.
He simply ignored it.
“Ah, I see, that’s why the divination didn’t work.” Chen Huaian pondered silently: “This venerable one’s Tianji divination should be at the Dao level, the opponent’s Dao vessel is also at the Dao level, it depends on who acts first. Now that old dog has already set up his protective shell first, this venerable one must pay a higher price to break through.”
This matter is troublesome.
But Chen Huaian thought about it.
A Dao vessel is ultimately an external object, maintaining the protective shell must consume resources, right?
But his Tianji divination is free once a day, available anytime, even while defecating or sleeping.
He would check once a day to see whether the old dog’s Dao vessel could hold up or if his Tianji would last longer.
“Wonderful! Nameless infant Dao vessel, prepare to accept this venerable one’s relentless sexual harassment, hehe!”
At the exciting moment,
Chen Xianzun couldn’t help but lick his lips and revealed a silver smile.
