Chapter 712: Out of the Valley
Chapter 712: Out of the Valley
Inside the simple cave dwelling, as soon as Lin Que finished speaking, the man's eyes suddenly lit up even brighter!
"Is this really a ghost cultivator?!"
"I never imagined that such a group of immortal cultivators actually exists in this world!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Que asked curiously, "Could it be that you, senior, also know about this ghost cultivator clan?"
"I've only learned about it from ancient books; I've never seen it with my own eyes." The man waved his hand and said, "Besides cultivation, my biggest hobby is studying all sorts of strange and unusual things."
"But I really didn't expect to see the legendary figure in person today."
"Hahaha!"
"That's good. I'll take care of refining the Concealment Pearl."
"All you need to do is find a few materials!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Que and Liu Qingyi were overjoyed!
"Thank you, senior!"
"Please tell me what materials you need, senior."
"By the way, we are unaware of your esteemed name, senior. Would you mind...?"
"Oh! That's right!"
"That was my oversight, I'm sorry!"
"My name is Xu Changxian, you can also call me: Poet Immortal!"
Lin Que: "......"
Your name is Poet Immortal, so what is my master's name?
Besides, senior, your poem... never mind, after all, I need your help now.
Lin Que mentally complained for a while, then listened to Xu Changxian say, "As for the materials needed, some are simple, but one or two are extremely rare. Perhaps you will need to go to the cities outside Yunwang Valley to find out some information."
"There's nothing we can do; we've already used up all the materials for the last one we refined."
"However, in addition to that, we also need the corpse of a member of the Chongming Cult, or more precisely, a wisp of dark aura from the corpse."
The group continued their conversation, one sentence after another, leaving Xiao Hei, who was standing to the side, completely bewildered!
After the three finished their conversation, Xiao Hei timidly asked, "Um... I mean, why did you ask me to come out?"
"If there's nothing else, then I'll..."
"Hehe! Don't rush! Don't rush!" Lin Que chuckled upon hearing this, "There must be something I wanted to tell you to come out."
"What...what happened?"
"It's just helping us out, letting our seniors play with us... ugh! No, that's not right!"
"I'll stay here and let my seniors study it."
Xiaohei:? ? ?
"Do not!!!"
......
Half an hour later, after finally managing to keep Xiao Hei there, Lin Que and Liu Qingyi left Xu Changxian's cave and headed back towards the peach blossom forest after descending the snow mountain.
Along the way, Liu Qingyi couldn't help but ask curiously, "You left Xiao Hei with Senior Xu, how are you going to get out of Yunwang Valley?"
"After all, you no longer have anything to conceal your presence."
Lin Que showed no concern upon hearing this and smiled as he said to Liu Qingyi, "That's easy, just borrow Ning Yanxue's Concealing Bead."
"Besides... don't you think this is also an opportunity?"
"An opportunity for certain people to make their move!"
"I don't believe that those people held nothing back when Ning Zhichuan took the Yunwang Valley coordinate token."
After saying that, a mysterious smile gradually appeared on Lin Que's face!
Most of the materials that Xu Changxian listed for Lin Que were relatively easy to collect, and Lin Que himself even possessed them.
But there are only two things among them: the Ten Thousand Year Soul Ice Jade and the Flowing Breath Condensed Dew.
These two items are extremely rare; you can only try your luck at city merchant guilds or auction houses outside the city.
As for the corpses of the cult members, that's easy to say; for Lin Que, they're everywhere in the outside world.
Soon, Lin Que and Liu Qingyi returned to the peach blossom forest and once again arrived at Ning Zhichuan's pavilion.
After another hour of conversation, Lin Que walked out of the pavilion alone, carrying the concealment bead that Ning Yanxue had given him, as well as a black jade token engraved with intricate Dao patterns.
After returning to the pavilion where he had been resting for the past few days, Lin Que quickly found Shen Wuliang.
This guy, who had been looking listless, was overjoyed when he saw Lin Que return!
"You're finally back!"
"Do you know how bored I am? I bet your injuries have healed by now, right?"
"quick!"
"Let's have another match!"
Lin Que felt embarrassed upon hearing this and quickly waved his hand, saying, "Let's do it next time. I have things to do now. Come with me to Yunwang Valley."
Lin Que then spoke to Shen Wuliang about something, which caused the latter's eyes to gradually brighten again from their previous dimness!
Before long, the two left the pavilion and wandered around the liveliest part of the peach blossom forest before heading out of the forest again.
Arriving at an open space, Lin Que unleashed a spell from his hand!
Buzz~!
As the spell was cast, the coordinate token given to him by Ning Zhichuan began to tremble violently in his hand!
Immediately afterwards, a beam of light descended from the void above Cloud View Valley, enveloping Lin Que and Shen Wuliang. A moment later, as the light disappeared, the two left the isolated space of Cloud View Valley.
Just as the two left, ripples suddenly appeared on the previously empty ground, and then an old man with a hunched back immediately appeared.
"It seems these two have really left."
"However, just in case there is any fraud, I still need to verify some things."
After muttering his words, the hunched old man disappeared from the open space once again.
When the old man reappeared, he was back in the peach blossom forest.
But just as the old man was about to walk in a certain direction, Ning Zhichuan suddenly walked towards him from the opposite side with a smile, which made him pause for a moment!
"Master Ning...Master Ning?"
Ning Zhichuan walked up to him and said with a smile, "What a coincidence, Elder Shen!"
"It seems I don't need to make a special trip."
"Go back now and tell Sect Leader Wang and the others that Yunwang Valley is holding a meeting."
"Please ask them to come to the main hall of the meeting. This concerns the future development of my Cloud Hope Valley and some matters concerning the future of the Chongming Continent."
Upon hearing this, the hunched old man paused for a moment before hurriedly cupping his hands and saying, "Uh...yes! Yes!"
"I will go and inform Sect Leader Wang right away."
After the old man agreed, Ning Zhichuan smiled and nodded.
"Then I'll have to trouble Elder Shen. I still need to go to Xu Changxian in person to inform him. It's truly unavoidable!"
After saying that, Ning Zhichuan walked towards a snow-capped mountain in the distance.
Upon seeing this, a glint of light flashed in the hunched old man's cloudy eyes, and he quickly left the place.
Half an hour later, inside an ancient pavilion...
Bang!
A sound like jade shattering rang out.
"A meeting?!"
"This sect leader is holding a meeting he doesn't believe!"
"Grab your weapons, take the young sect leader, and go wipe out those two ants!"
