Great Immortal With Boundless Mana

Chapter 281: Gift Giving

Yin Baishi had lived for hundreds of years and had reached the Gold Core cultivation level. He had accumulated his wealth through various means throughout his life.

The room was not very large to begin with, but it was filled with various spiritual objects, Law Weapons, and other items, giving it an impressive appearance.

Gao Xian patted Zhu Qianniang's shoulder and smiled proudly, "So, beautiful lady, tell me how you feel."

Zhu Qianniang regained her senses and looked deeply at Gao Xian, her emerald eyes filled with disbelief.

"You really killed a Gold Core demonic cultivator?!"

"As you can see."

Gao Xian found Zhu Qianniang's shocked expression amusing. He pinched her cheek and helped her close her slightly open mouth. "I am an unparalleled genius, the leader of the Qingyun Conference, proficient in both law and sword. It's not unreasonable for me to kill a Gold Core demonic cultivator..."

Zhu Qianniang couldn't help but laugh, but then she couldn't help but sigh.

Ten years ago, Gao Xian and Zhu Qianniang had killed an Ironscale Beast together. At that time, Gao Xian was only at the third level of Qi Refining, but he had severely injured a Foundation Building demonic beast with his exquisite spells.

Since then, she had seen Gao Xian's potential and believed that he would achieve great things in the future.

However, Gao Xian's growth was too fast. In just ten years, he was already capable of single-handedly killing a Gold Core cultivator!

Zhu Qianniang had been diligently cultivating these past few years, hoping to catch up to Gao Xian's footsteps.

But the result was that Gao Xian was getting faster and faster, and now she couldn't even see his back anymore...

In the future, the gap between them would only grow wider.

Thinking of these things, Zhu Qianniang couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness.

Gao Xian noticed that Qianniang's expression was a bit off, and he could also guess what she was thinking.

There was nothing he could do about cultivation matters.

He had given Qianniang the Qingjin Fruit and the Millennium Jade Marrow, both of which were extremely suitable for her and helped her lay a solid foundation.

But even so, the hope of Qianniang forming her Gold Core was not great.

The Primordial Origin Golden Body Technique, this Body Refining technique was a bit too low-level. If Qianniang could enter the Azure Cloud Sect, perhaps she could find a suitable secret technique among the thirty-six volumes of the Qingyun Scriptures.

Empty words of comfort were meaningless. Gao Xian pulled Qianniang and said, "Let's see what the old guy has given us as gifts..."

Although Qianniang was in a bad mood, she couldn't help but smile.

It was not easy to categorize and identify this pile of things.

Qianniang first picked out the spiritual stones and handed them to Gao Xian. Gao Xian didn't hesitate and accepted them all.

There were a total of thirty-one High Grade spiritual stones, along with miscellaneous Middle Grade and Low Grade spiritual stones, totaling three hundred and fifty thousand spiritual stones.

For a Gold Core cultivator, Yin Baishi's wealth could be considered meager.

As for the various miscellaneous spiritual objects, ninety-nine percent of them were used to cultivate demonic sect secret techniques.

Among them, the most valuable were three Fire Ginsengs, each about a foot long, complete with limbs, resembling a crimson baby. Judging from their age, they were several thousand years old.

The most important function of Huocan is to temper the Soul Refining. Although it is good, it is not useful for Gao Xian.

His spiritual consciousness is already too strong, so these powerful Soul Formation spiritual objects have little effect on him.

Gao Xian took one Huocan, leaving the other two for Qi Niang.

Qi Niang's body is already strong enough, but her spiritual consciousness is not sufficient. Having two Huocan to condense her Soul Refining would be very beneficial for her.

In addition, there is a Taiyin Spirit Crystal, which is the most valuable spiritual object in the Yin Bai Shi inheritance.

This object is pure white, resembling a well-polished diamond, with each facet reflecting light, making it dazzling.

The Taiyin Spirit Crystal itself is a pure crystal condensed from Taiyin spiritual energy, equivalent to a Supreme Grade spiritual stone.

This crystal itself does not have any problems and can be absorbed by anyone. However, it is difficult for ordinary cultivators to convert the Taiyin energy and their bodies may be eroded by the Taiyin energy, causing irreversible damage.

If one can convert and absorb the Taiyin spiritual energy, it can nourish the body and soul, which is very beneficial for cultivators.

Qi Niang held the Taiyin Spirit Crystal and thought for a moment before suddenly saying, "A Xian, I want this Taiyin Spirit Crystal."

However, Gao Xian hesitated. It's not that he is unwilling, but this item can be sold for three to five hundred thousand spiritual stones, which is insignificant compared to Qi Niang.

The problem is that the Taiyin Spirit Crystal is meant for Gold Core cultivators. If Qi Niang wants to use it for cultivation, a single misstep could result in her body being eroded by the Taiyin energy.

By then, her foundation would be destroyed, and not only would her cultivation not progress, but her life would also be in jeopardy.

The risk involved is too great.

Gao Xian looked at Qi Niang's bright green eyes and asked seriously, "Have you thought it through?"

Qi Niang nodded vigorously, "I'm already forty years old, and if I don't reach Core Formation within twenty years, there will be no hope for me. I want to give it a try."

"Alright."

Gao Xian didn't try to persuade her further. Qi Niang is not a child, and since she has the determination to forge ahead, he will let her follow her own heart.

He patted Qi Niang's shoulder and encouraged her, "Go for it, my little girl."

"Go for it?" Qi Niang could understand that Gao Xian was teasing her, but she didn't understand the meaning of "go for it."

"Add more oil when cooking, and practice with enthusiasm."

Gao Xian suddenly felt pleasantly surprised, "I've bet on it again, impressive!"

Although Qi Niang still didn't quite understand, she was still infected by Gao Xian's happiness, and her lips curled up slightly.

"You're smiling so charmingly, are you trying to seduce me..."

Gao Xian became interested and carried Qi Niang into the bedroom.

Qi Niang didn't struggle. She hooked her arm around Gao Xian's neck, her bright green eyes filled with joy.

The usually cold Qi Niang, when she became gentle, had a different kind of charm. Gao Xian couldn't help but be captivated and unable to extricate himself.

It wasn't until March, when spring blossomed, that Gao Xian returned to Azure Cloud Sect.

Although Qi Niang was in Lianyun City, the spiritual energy there was far inferior to Azure Cloud Sect, and the level of safety was also lacking.

Gao Xian waited for two months but didn't see any movement from the Yin Mo Sect, so he lost patience.

Upon returning to the sect, I first went to greet Yun Qingxuan and brought along a small gift.

Naturally, Yun Qingxuan lacked nothing. I picked two special but useless spiritual objects from Yin Baishi's inheritance to show Yun Qingxuan something new.

These literary types love this kind of style. Giving useful things would be looking down on our Yun Perfected Being.

Sure enough, Yun Qingxuan seemed to like the gift.

Gao Xian asked about Yun Qiushui's situation and was told that he was still in seclusion. It was unknown when he would come out.

He also asked about Wan Yingying, but Yun Qingxuan knew nothing about it.

Gao Xian also admired Yun Zaitian a bit. This old man had hidden his disciple very securely, and Yun Qingxuan didn't know the specific situation.

After leaving the Jade Mirror Palace, Gao Xian went to the Scripture Hall.

Lu Jingxu happened to be there too, and he was quite happy to see Gao Xian. "You're back. The disciples have been waiting for you to give a lecture."

There were several sword scripture teachers, but none of them could compare to Gao Xian. The difference in their realms was too great.

It was a good thing they didn't compare. After Gao Xian gave a few lectures, many disciples immediately realized how amazing this scripture teacher Gao Xian was.

Gao Xian had been gone for half a year, and the disciples of the Sword Hall were eagerly anticipating his return.

Hearing Lu Jingxu say this, Gao Xian was also very happy. "Senior Brother Lu knows how to praise people. Please elaborate, I love to listen."

Lu Jingxu laughed heartily. "I'm just telling the truth..."

Gao Xian had drunk Lu Jingxu's Fire Ginseng Wine last time, and this time he happened to bring back a Fire Ginseng. He took out the Fire Ginseng and placed it in front of Lu Jingxu.

"A thousand-year Fire Ginseng?"

Lu Jingxu's eyes immediately lit up. He picked up the Fire Ginseng and examined it up and down, shaking his head repeatedly. "Not just a thousand years, this is at least three thousand years old. Wow, I can't afford such a gift..."

Ordinary Fire Ginseng would be enough, but for a Gold Core cultivator, a Fire Ginseng over three thousand years old was a top-grade spiritual object.

He had a good relationship with Gao Xian, but it hadn't reached this level.

Gao Xian glanced at Lu Jingxu. "Senior Brother, don't think too highly of yourself. I'm giving you the Fire Ginseng to ask for your help in brewing wine..."

"Oh, haha, no problem."

Lu Jingxu immediately understood. Brewing wine was a good idea. If he added some other spiritual objects, he could make good wine and keep two or three shares for himself, which was reasonable.

"Junior Brother, where did you get this Supreme Grade Fire Ginseng?" Lu Jingxu couldn't help but ask.

"I killed a Gold Core demonic cultivator and obtained it from his storage bag," Gao Xian casually replied.

Lu Jingxu was shocked. "Really?"

"Did Senior Brother really believe it?" Gao Xian asked in return.

"Hahaha..."

Lu Jingxu burst into laughter. "You scared me for a moment."

Seeing Lu Jingxu's reaction, Gao Xian knew that the sect hadn't received any news from Yun Taihao. His mouth was really tight.

After chatting with Lu Jingxu for a while, I learned that Li Feihuang won first place in the grand competition and became a true disciple.

When Lu Jingxu mentioned Li Feihuang, his expression seemed a bit strange, as if he had something to say but didn't say it.

Gao Xian found it strange. Could it be that his affair with Li Feihuang had been discovered?!

It shouldn't be the case. Xuan Du Peak is so secretive, and Li Feihuang hasn't been here many times. How could others know?

But he didn't ask. Li Feihuang begged him for help in cultivation, and out of camaraderie, he assisted him.

He was justified in doing so, and no one could say he was wrong. If someone wanted to fight him, his Vajra Staff was not fake.

Back at Xuan Du Peak, Da Niu was practicing Iron Dragon Fist in the courtyard.

Every move and technique showed his deep understanding of Iron Dragon Fist. Da Niu's cultivation had clearly improved.

Gao Xian's perception was now keen, and at a glance, he could see that Da Niu had advanced to the eighth level of Qi Refining.

That small bottle of Nine Leaf Lingzhi was not used in vain by Da Niu.

When Da Niu saw Gao Xian return, he was also very excited and spent a rare half of the day talking with Gao Xian.

Da Niu came from the Zhu family and had a deep affection for Qi Niang. He also cared about his relatives at home.

Gao Xian was in a good mood and drank some wine with Da Niu in the evening. After Da Niu was drunk and stumbled away, he went to his quiet room.

The spiritual energy in Lianyun City was insufficient, so he had never used the Five Elements Spiritual Objects given by Yun Taihao.

Now that he was back at Xuan Du Peak, he naturally had to make use of these Five Elements Spiritual Objects.

Although he rarely used the Great Five Elements Sword Qi, it was his innate Divine Ability and could be instantly unleashed with tremendous power.

After practicing the Five Elements Unity Technique, the Great Five Elements Sword Qi gained the ability to counter the Five Elements, elevating its level.

While Gao Xian was cultivating in seclusion at Xuan Du Peak, on Xuanxiao Peak, Shui Yujun was staring at the Sky Mirror in a daze.

The Sky Mirror displayed the courtyard where Gao Xian lived on Xuan Du Peak. Due to the operation of the array, there was a faint cloud of mist above the courtyard.

If Shui Yujun forcefully activated the Sky Mirror, he could break through the array and directly see Gao Xian. However, doing so would inevitably alarm Gao Xian.

Knowing that Gao Xian had returned safely, Shui Yujun was somewhat puzzled. Were all the disciples of the Yin Demon Sect idiots?

Shui Yuying, who hurried over, shouted as soon as she entered, "Why hasn't Gao Xian died yet!"

Shui Yujun glanced coldly at Shui Yuying and calmly said, "This Gao Xian is quite lucky. Since there's no opportunity, let's not touch him for now."

However, Shui Yuying was unwilling. She said, "Li Feihuang won the grand competition last year and became a true disciple."

"What?" Shui Yujun was a bit puzzled. Why did Li Feihuang suddenly come up?

"Don't play dumb. Anyone with eyes can see that Li Feihuang's swordsmanship was definitely taught by Gao Xian. Li Feihuang's pure Yang Origin has also been broken by Yin. They must have slept together."

Shui Yuying's bright eyes sparkled, and she said excitedly, "This kid is so lustful. Let me sleep with him and sever his Gold Core Great Dao!"

Shui Yujun fell silent and said, "Do as you wish..."
