Elder Jingde stood up with a shy smile on his face, and said somewhat embarrassedly:
“Well, young friend, can 1, can I smell it one more time and live another 360 years?”
Hearing this.
Xuanqing couldn’t help but laugh and cry in his heart.
He thought it was something serious.
“Hahaha, Elder Jingde, this fruit relies on smell, and the limit is to live an extra
360 years. Even if you smell more, it will have no effect.”
While speaking.
He took out a Ginseng fruit he had previously collected from his game backpack.
“Here, try it if you don’t believe me.”
“Alright!”
Elder Jingde did not hold back, took the ginseng fruit and started smelling it, as if doing so could increase his lifespan.
However.
No matter how much he inhaled, at most he could only feel a refreshing fragrance, but without the previous change in vitality.
“All- it’s just my greed getting in the way. Living an extra 360 years is already a blessing for a human Jingde woke up from his stupor, ashamedly and handed back the ginseng fruit.
“Daoist Priest, there’s no need for such formality. If there is a chance in the future to step onto the path of cultivation, a mere 360 years won’t be worth mentioning.”
Xuanqing said indifferently.
As his words echoed.
Elder Jingde’s body trembled, and he asked incredulously: “Young friend, are you saying… 1 might have a chance to step onto the path of cultivation in the future?”
“In the future., perhaps there is a chance!”
Xuanqing’s eyes gazed into the distance, speaking leisurely.
To start cultivation on Earth without spiritual qi, one would either have to suck his blood and grow from it, or find a spiritual qi-rich planet outside Earth and merge it with Earth.
He didn’t want to resort to the former, while the latter was beyond his capabilities.
However.
Everything is different now.
With the opening of the game store, anything can be collected and then exchanged using ingots.
Not to mention other things.
Just getting a ginseng fruit tree and planting it on Earth, the tree can absorb Chaotic Qi and continuously produce spiritual qi.
Naturally.
All of this is just an ideal assumption.
Whether or not it can make Earth produce spiritual qi depends on the ingot cost after the ginseng fruit tree is collected in the store.
Or if the Earth’s environment can even support ginseng fruit trees in the first place.
After all.
The growth of the ginseng fruit tree requires rooting its tendrils in the Chaos Void, God knows if this universe has such a thing as the Chaos Void.
Of course.
All this is beside the point now.
Worth mentioning is that before he left the Changling City Dao Association, he cast a spell to restore Elder Jingde’s appearance to its original aged state to avoid any unnecessary trouble.
“We will meet again in the future!”
“May you have Immeasurable Longevity and Fortune, until we meet again!”
Elder Jingde bowed his hands in return and watched the other party leave.
Qingping Mountain.
Xuanqing didn’t return to the main room to enter the game directly.
Instead, he came to the back mountain of Qingping Mountain, where he had originally arranged the ‘Bewilderment Formation’.
He planned to establish the production line of life extension capsules here.
In this case, a mere Bewilderment Formation is not enough, and he would need to arrange another layer of Five Elements Ring Array outside the formation.
“The Five Elements Ring Array, built upon the power of the Five Elements, draws from the natural forces of Heaven and Earth. The formation is interlocked, and unless one has the power to destroy the Heaven and Earth, it will be impossible to break the formation.”
Xuanqing’s eyes shone brightly.
With a single thought.
Five blank jade charms floated in the air.
He extended his fingertips, transforming them into a brush, and began to inscribe one of the blank jade charms.
Gold charm… Success!
Aiming for the next jade charm.
Wood charm… Success!
Water charm… Fire charm… Earth charm all succeeded!
“Order!”
Xuanqing threw all the jade charms out.
The five differently colored jade charms constantly rotated in the air, emitting a dazzling, multicolored light.
Om Om-
There was a mysterious fluctuation in the air.
The five jade talismans of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth flew in different directions: east, south, west, north, and center.
In an instant.
Each jade talisman emitted a colorful pillar of light that linked together, forming a closed loop.
The array was complete!
“This Five Elements Ring Array connects the back mountain of the entire Qingping Mountain Range. Unless a nuclear bomb is detonated, it cannot harm the formation in the slightest,” said Xuanqing, satisfied with the strength of the formation.
Back in his room.
He didn’t immediately enter the game but instead summoned Huai Qingyun, who had become a subordinate Earth God, through the Immortal Official’s Jade Seal.
A moment later.
“Sir, you called for me?” Huai Qingyun bowed.
Xuanqing nodded.
Then.
He took the jade from his backpack that he had bought previously.
“Qingyun, now that you have become an Earth God, it’s time to learn the carving technique for the Gathering Qi Bead!” Xuanqing said, pointing to the pile of jade in front of him.
Upon hearing this.
“What’s a Gathering Qi Bead, and what’s it for?” Huai Qingyun was a bit confused.
“Stop talking nonsense! If 1 tell you to learn, just learn!”
“Oh oh..okay-”
An hour later.
After watching Huai Qingyun successfully carve a Gathering Qi Bead.
“You did well. Your next task is to carve this pile of jade into Gathering Qi Beads. Understand?” Xuanqing patted Huai Qingyun’s shoulder.
Oh… Understood-” Huai Qingyun nodded.
“Alright, off you go!”
After watching Huai Qingyun leave.
Xuanqing sat cross-legged on the cushion.
With a thought in his mind.
“Enter the game!”
Game World.
Black Wind Town.
In the Divine Realm of the Temples and Taoist Temples.
“Huh-”
Xuanqing opened his eyes and woke up.
With such a long period of hang-up cultivation, his cultivation had significantly improved, and his body as a Heavenly Immortal was even more stable.
“There is nothing to worry about in the real world for now, so I’ll focus mainly on this side,” thought Xuanqing.
Next.
There were many things he needed to do.
First of all.
He had gained so many Ginseng Fruits from Great Immortal Zhenyuan, and he could certainly give some to Ancestor Master.
He had asked Ancestor Master for cultivation techniques, magic treasures, and even used Ancestor Master’s name to intimidate Guanyin of Shimen.
One should have a conscience and know what it means to respect one’s teacher and follow the Taoist principles.
“There are still five months left before the Ascension Conference, which equals roughly half a day in the Heavenly Court. There should be plenty of time to deliver some gifts,” he thought.
With that in mind.
Xuanqing planned to go to the Heavenly Court to send Ginseng Fruits to Ancestor Master.
Of course.
As a newly ascended Heavenly Immortal, he couldn’t rely on his own power to go to the Heavenly Court yet.
But that didn’t bother him.
If he didn’t have enough power to go to the Heavenly Court, he could borrow external power.
Slap-
He opened the Immortal Official’s Jade Seal around his waist, and his divine thoughts poured into it, connecting to the Tai Bai Star Lord of Seven Luminaries inside.
“Star Lord, I have a favor to ask!”
