Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 266 Good Neighbor

Chapter 266: Good Neighbor

Gao Xian said that the joke about delivering medicine was just a joke, and the Deer Antler Powder is of no use to a Gold Core True Immortal.

He said that treating him to a meal was genuine.

After a fight with Li Ye, he easily obtained the Qingfeng Sword, and his mood was particularly good.

Anyway, there is still three months' time, so there is no rush to comprehend the Qingfeng Sword.

Since the New Year, he has been busy cultivating and messing around with Li Fei Huang, with no free time at all.

Today happened to be free, so he made an appointment with Lu Jingxu to relax at Changle Tower, and by the way, ask him something and visit his home in Azure Cloud City.

Lu Jingxu's health is not good, and if it were someone else inviting him, he would definitely decline. But since Gao Xian is treating him, he can't lose face.

Back at the Scripture Academy, Lu Jingxu briefly explained his official duties, and then he and Gao Xian used their escape technique to fly to Azure Cloud City.

Flying is not allowed in Azure Cloud City, that is for ordinary cultivators. The law enforcement court, patrol court, disciplinary court, and other cultivators responsible for maintaining order in Azure Cloud City are allowed to fly.

The heads of the True Transmission and Divine Heaven True Transmission halls also have this privilege.

Previously, Yun Qiushui always took a carriage to find Gao Xian, mainly because Gao Xian did not have the qualification to fly.

But now Gao Xian is different, naturally he can fly directly into Azure Cloud City with Lu Jingxu.

The Divine Heaven Tokens on both of them resonate mysteriously with the city's protective formation, allowing them to freely enter and exit the formation without being restricted.

The sun had just set, and the sky was filled with dark clouds. The cool breeze carried a hint of chill, and it looked like it was going to rain.

The lights on each floor of Changle Tower were brilliant, extremely eye-catching in the deep Azure Cloud City.

Gao Xian and Lu Jingxu descended from the sky, and the welcoming staff in front of the main gate hurriedly greeted them.

These welcoming staff of the grand restaurant were not ordinary employees; they could be considered high-level management, roughly equivalent to the position of a front hall manager.

The middle-aged welcoming staff recognized Lu Jingxu at a glance and respectfully approached to greet him.

Lu Jingxu casually asked, "Is there still a seat available on the seventh floor?"

The middle-aged welcoming staff smiled apologetically, "It has been reserved by Water True Immortal during this period."

"Then just arrange a room casually, and it should be quiet."

Lu Jingxu looked at Gao Xian, after all, Gao Xian was the one treating, he didn't know what Gao Xian's requirements were.

Gao Xian had been to Changle Tower twice before and was not very familiar with it. But since he was treating Lu Jingxu, he needed to find a place of sufficient grade.

He smiled slightly, "I'm not familiar with this place, so I'll listen to Senior Brother."

The middle-aged welcoming staff didn't dare to look up, but glanced at Gao Xian with the corner of his eye. Calling Lu Jingxu Senior Brother, what kind of background did he have? Divine Heaven True Transmission?

He had never seen Gao Xian before, but judging from Gao Xian's young and handsome appearance, he could roughly guess Gao Xian's identity.

Lu Jingxu also smiled, "We don't need any fancy stuff, just some food will do."

In the private room on the sixth floor, the window faced the central courtyard, where one could see the song and dance performance on the high platform.

The food and drinks were served, and Gao Xian and Lu Jingxu had a few drinks. Both of them were visibly more relaxed.

Cultivating immortality is not just about the length of life, but also about the quality of life.

What's the difference between enduring in a cave for thousands of years and a turtle? Where is the value of living for a thousand years?

For cultivators at the Foundation Building stage, they already have the qualifications to enjoy the pleasures of life. This is even more true for Gold Core True Immortals.

Lu Jingxu is a good gentleman, but that doesn't stop him from frequently visiting Changle Tower.

After a few drinks, Lu Jingxu smiled and said, "We've had our drinks, so if Junior Brother has anything to say, go ahead."

He knew that Gao Xian is very diligent and focused on cultivation, and in over a year, he had never heard of Gao Xian coming to Azure Cloud City for leisure.

This is normal. Gao Xian is currently in a critical stage of cultivation, so if he spends all day playing around, it's equivalent to giving up on the Dao.

Gao Xian invited him to dinner, so there must be something he wants to talk about.

"I can't hide it from Senior Brother, hehe..."

Gao Xian revealed his white and neat teeth, smiling generously. "Senior Brother, I want to know what channels there are to sell books, and if I can sell my books all over Wanfeng County?"

Lu Jingxu was a little surprised, but he could understand that Gao Xian writing novels and drawing erotic paintings was just a hobby for him.

Cultivators who work hard in their cultivation every day always need to find ways to relax.

Some cultivators like to beg as beggars, while others like to pretend to be dogs, running and barking all over the place. It can be said that cultivators have all sorts of strange hobbies.

Compared to that, Gao Xian writing explicit novels is nothing at all.

But Gao Xian still wanted to sell his novels elsewhere, which Lu Jingxu found a bit hard to understand.

Novels are just ordinary words and pictures, and they can be directly copied with spells. There is no way to restrict them.

Just like the various bookstores that sell Gao Xian's novels, they just take them and use them directly, without giving him any money.

Even if they sell a lot, it doesn't benefit Gao Xian. He shouldn't be so concerned about this matter.

Lu Jingxu thought for a moment and said, "As long as there is profit, someone will naturally take your books and sell them. There's no need to deliberately find someone to sell them."

"I know."

Gao Xian said, "The various sects are relatively closed off. Outside of Qingyun Dao, I'm afraid no one will bother with these books."

The profit from selling novels is too low. The big merchants who can span across various paths don't care about such small money.

The cultivators who care about this small amount of money don't have the ability to leave Qingyun Dao.

Even if a few sporadic novels are spread out, it's difficult to form a scale.

Gao Xian had worked in sales in his previous life, and although he didn't do well, he knew the importance of channels and platforms.

Even the best products need a good platform for display and various channels to radiate outward.

Earning Human Dao Spiritual Light while lying down was very enjoyable. With the upgrade of various secret techniques, he needed more and more Human Dao Spiritual Light.

Gao Xian hoped to promote a few novels, not to mention the entire Jiuzhou, even in Mingzhou, which is so large, there are billions of cultivators. If each person contributed a little Human Dao Spiritual Light, how happy would that be?

In his previous life, he had dreamed of every person in the country giving him one cent, instantly lifting him out of poverty and making him rich.

Of course, his vision was even bigger. He wanted to get rich first and then pay the entire country, with each person receiving one cent from the entire country. Just one cent, who couldn't afford it?

After one round, everyone would become multimillionaires, stepping into a truly well-off society... Unfortunately, this grand ideal didn't take its first step and died halfway.

Lu Jingxu didn't know about Gao Xian's grand ideal. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Within the scope of Mingzhou, Wanbao Tower is the most powerful. It is said to have branches in all thirty-six counties. I am somewhat familiar with the manager of Wanbao Tower in Azure Cloud City, Jin Dabao. I can introduce you to him..."

Gao Xian wanted to sell his novels all over Wanfeng County, and Yunshui Tower definitely didn't have the ability to do that. He could only look for Wanbao Tower, a large commercial firm that claimed to have business all over Mingzhou.

Lu Jingxu actually didn't have much confidence in this. Wanbao Tower sells high-level Spiritual Weapons, and a single novel can only earn a few coins.

But since Gao Xian had brought it up, he had to help and ask.

Gao Xian was overjoyed. "Thank you, Senior Brother."

If he could really establish a connection with Wanbao Tower and sell his novels all over Mingzhou, it would truly be leveling up while lying down.

Lu Jingxu couldn't help but ask, "Junior Brother, I don't quite understand why you value these novels so much?"

Gao Xian was actually stumped by the question. He couldn't just say it was to earn Human Dao Spiritual Light. After thinking for a moment, he said, "To promote literature, to satisfy the spiritual needs of cultivators from all walks of life..."

The smile on Lu Jingxu's face gradually froze. If this kid didn't want to say, then forget it. The more he talked, the more absurd it became.

He interrupted Gao Xian and said, "There may be a Gold Core demonic cultivator hidden in Azure Cloud City, so be careful when entering and leaving. It's best not to stay overnight in Azure Cloud City."

"Wouldn't they be specifically targeting me?" Gao Xian felt that the Gold Core demonic cultivator, Gold Core, was not so idle and was specifically targeting him.

Yin Jiushi stared at Li Feihuang, attracted by her Chi Feng Spirit Body. This pure yang and true yin energy is very beneficial for demonic cultivators contaminated by demonic energy.

Demonic cultivators don't talk about emotions, and it's unlikely that anyone would seek revenge for Yin Jiushi.

Lu Jingxu shook his head, "You have the greatest reputation now. If a demonic cultivator were to kill you, it would greatly damage the sect's reputation. Don't underestimate your importance."

Gao Xian nodded. Lu Jingxu always meant well and rarely made mistakes.

He was about to say something when he suddenly felt a sensation and looked out the window.

It was raining outside, with a gentle and soothing spring rain. The sound of rain had a calming effect, making the entire Azure Cloud City peaceful and serene in the rainy night.

Bursts of intense flames tore through the darkness, and the loud rumbling broke the tranquility of the rainy night.

Gao Xian looked in the direction of the flames, which was the southern district of Azure Cloud City.

Lu Jingxu also showed surprise. It was too far away for his spiritual sense to detect, so he could only judge the situation based on his eyes.

He judged, "It should be Foundation Building cultivators taking action..."

"Should we go take a look?" Gao Xian was a bit curious and eager to try.

He had heard about the chaos in the southern district, where many criminals were hiding. He didn't expect the other party to be so arrogant and cause such a commotion.

To Gao Xian's surprise, Lu Jingxu shook his head, "Don't meddle in affairs that don't concern us. This is the responsibility of the Patrol Court and the Law Enforcement Court. We shouldn't interfere recklessly."

Lu Jingxu reminded Gao Xian again, "We just arrived, and something happened suddenly. It's a bit too coincidental. We must be cautious."

Gao Xian felt that Lu Jingxu was being overly cautious. If someone wanted to deal with him, using this method would be a bit foolish.

But he didn't say anything. It was right to mind his own business.

The fine spring rain quickly covered the intense magical flames, and the southern district fell into silence again.

The flames from earlier seemed like an illusion.

Gao Xian and Lu Jingxu watched for a while before losing interest.

It was also about time, and Gao Xian didn't have the mood to continue drinking.

After settling the bill, Lu Jingxu returned to the sect, while Gao Xian went back to his home in Anshan Alley alone.

The main gate of Anshan Alley was already closed at this late hour. It would only be opened in special circumstances.

Gao Xian had the Heavenly Immortal Token, so he could fly directly back without needing to use the main gate.

As he flew past the south gate of Anshan Alley, Gao Xian saw several people standing in front of the gate.

Among them, a woman in a purple dress with a beautiful appearance and graceful figure was his beautiful neighbor, Wei Shuangshuang.

In her arms was a burly man, Wei Cheng.

With the Flower Discerning Mirror, Gao Xian could clearly see that Wei Cheng's eyes were tightly closed, his face was black and purple, and there were large patches of blood on his chest. The situation looked grim.

Wei Shuangshuang's face was pale and filled with sorrow and anxiety. Her hair was wet from the drizzle, and raindrops kept rolling down her cheeks. However, her attention was focused on Wei Cheng in her arms.

Tong Yan, who had a slender figure, stood by the side. There were also bloodstains on his body, and he looked quite disheveled.

Gao Xian usually minded his own business, but since he had met his neighbor Wei Shuangshuang twice and had a good impression of her, he decided to descend gracefully.

When Wei Shuangshuang and Tong Yan saw someone descending from the sky, their expressions tightened, and they tightly gripped their Law Weapons. When they saw that it was Gao Xian, Tong Yan showed a guarded expression, but Wei Shuangshuang's eyes lit up.

Gao Xian asked, "Who is this, Fellow Daoist Wei?"

Wei Shuangshuang was nervous and hopeful as she said, "Fellow Daoist Gao, my husband was ambushed by a demonic cultivator in the southern district and was stabbed in the chest by the Five Poison Sword. Unfortunately, we can't enter Anshan Alley..."

The sword wound wasn't the main issue; the key was that the mixed poison and sword qi on the sword were very powerful. Wei Cheng, who was in the late stage of Body Refining Foundation Building, couldn't withstand the poison and fell unconscious.

She gave Wei Cheng a detoxifying pill, but it seems that the effect is not very good. They can only seek medical treatment to detoxify, and Wei Cheng only has hope of survival if he does so.

The entrance to Anshan Lane is tightly closed, with the protective formation fully activated. Although Wei Shuangshuang and the others are Foundation Building cultivators, they dare not forcefully enter.

They cannot break the formation, and forcefully entering the formation is equivalent to provoking the Azure Cloud Sect. The Law Enforcement Court will never let them go.

There is no other way, they can only wait at the gate, hoping that Wei Cheng can hold on until dawn.

Wei Shuangshuang is eloquent and explains the situation clearly in a few simple sentences.

"I see."

Gao Xian looked at Wei Cheng, a hole pierced through his chest, and the blood flowing out was pitch black. Fortunately, it did not damage his heart.

He doesn't understand the Five Poison Sword, but he has the Rejuvenation Technique, which can stimulate vitality and restore essence and blood, as well as detoxify and ward off evil spirits.

Don't underestimate the Rejuvenation Technique, although it is a small spell, there are not many people in the world who can practice it to the level of a grandmaster.

The Five Poison Sword is not just about toxicity, it also requires the fusion of mana to exert its power and pose a threat to Foundation Building cultivators. Gao Xian judged that it is only at the Rank Two level, and even if the Rejuvenation Technique cannot completely detoxify, it is enough to alleviate the situation.

As for Wei Shuangshuang's claim that they were attacked by a demonic cultivator, it is likely that not all of it is true. They went to the chaotic southern district in the middle of the night, could it be for a stroll?

Gao Xian thought for a moment and said, "If Fellow Daoist Wei doesn't mind, I can give it a try."

Wei Shuangshuang knew that Gao Xian was very powerful, and he was also a disciple of the Azure Cloud Sect, so he must have detoxifying pills or a Law Weapon on him.

She said so much, not just to gain Gao Xian's sympathy, but also hoping that he would lend a hand. She quickly nodded and said, "Please Fellow Daoist, lend a hand."

With these words, Gao Xian flicked his finger and a green light fell on Wei Cheng's chest. As the green light continued to penetrate, a black gas dispersed from the wound...

In less than ten breaths of time, Wei Cheng suddenly coughed and opened his eyes wide. He spat out a mouthful of black blood, looking very weak and frail, but his eyes were clear.

"Husband, how are you?"

"I can still hold on." Wei Cheng whispered, and then he looked at Gao Xian in surprise.

Seeing that Wei Cheng was conscious and even his breath had stabilized, Wei Shuangshuang couldn't help but be overjoyed. "Thanks to Fellow Daoist Gao Xian's Law Manifestation, we were able to survive."

She hurriedly said to Gao Xian, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist, thank you..."

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

If it weren't for encountering Gao Xian, Wei Cheng probably wouldn't have survived the night.

Wei Cheng struggled to stand up to express his gratitude, but Gao Xian waved his hand gently, "We are neighbors, it's just a small favor, no need to be like this."

He saved people as a matter of course, there was nothing more to say.

Gao Xian performed the Rejuvenation Technique on Wei Cheng again, and seeing that his condition was completely stable, he then used the Yin-Yang Heaven Wheel to cross the wall and enter Anshan Lane. As he entered, the layers of formation lights flashed, but they did not hinder him in any way.

Wei Shuangshuang, Wei Cheng, and Tong Yan all saw this scene, and their eyes were filled with envy. The Azure Cloud Sect's true transmission was powerful enough to walk sideways in Azure Cloud City.

If they had this identity, they wouldn't have to take risks and go to the southern district.

Watching Gao Xian's figure disappear, Tong Yan sighed, "I didn't expect him to be proficient in healing spells as well. I think he's even stronger than the physicians at Wan'an Hall."

Wei Shuangshuang also nodded, "Indeed, he is powerful. I don't know what kind of wood-based spell he used, but he forcibly removed the power of the Five Poisons. They say he is unparalleled in both law and sword, and it turns out his healing spells are also so miraculous! I wonder how he cultivated..."

She looked grateful and said to Wei Cheng, "Fortunately, we met Fellow Daoist Gao Xian, otherwise your life would have been in danger!"

Wei Cheng fell silent for a moment and said, "This is a life-saving grace. Tomorrow, we will visit Fellow Daoist Gao Xian in person to express our gratitude and give him the Fire Essence Gold as a gift..."

Wei Shuangshuang felt a bit reluctant, but she immediately nodded forcefully, "Although the Fire Essence Gold is expensive, it cannot compare to your life. It's only right."

Wei Cheng looked at Tong Yan, "Brother Tong, you will also have a share of the Fire Essence Gold, and I will make up for the price difference."

Tong Yan hesitated for a moment and shook his head, "Being able to establish a relationship with this person, the Fire Essence Gold is nothing..."

He was cunning and immediately realized that this was a good opportunity to establish a relationship with Gao Xian. With this back and forth, their relationship would naturally become closer.

With Gao Xian backing them, they would have a chance to retaliate for the loss they suffered today!
