I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 84: Seeking Refuge and the Purple Golden Toad Foundation Building

Upon seeing Lin Qing's refusal, Lin Xuchang continued, "Father, there is a female cultivator who wishes to seek refuge and insists on meeting you."

"Oh?" Lin Qing was somewhat surprised.

Lin Xuchang continued, "Father, this female cultivator said she is waiting for you at the shop and insists that you must go see her. She said she will wait for you for as long as it takes."

"If that's the case, I will go see her tomorrow," Lin Qing thought to himself. Seeing her wouldn't hurt.

Upon hearing that Lin Qing was willing to go, Lin Xuchang suddenly remembered something and whispered, "Father, this female cultivator is at the late stage of Qi Refining and is beautiful. When you meet her, don't let Mother see her."

"Hahaha!" Lin Qing couldn't help but laugh at Lin Xuchang's words.

The next day, Lin Qing arrived at the shop in the outer city. Just as Lin Xuchang had said, there was a beautiful female cultivator sitting in the shop. Her strength was indeed at the late stage of Qi Refining, and she was even at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

"Young lady greets Senior Lin, the great formation master."

As soon as Lin Qing entered the shop, this female cultivator approached and greeted him. Lin Qing was somewhat taken aback. Her voice was too enchanting, and she even bent down slightly, revealing a bit of her cleavage.

"Who are you?" Lin Qing asked.

The female cultivator replied, "I am called Xiuyun. I greatly admire Senior Lin and wish to have a long conversation with you."

"Well..." Lin Qing pondered for a moment and didn't refuse. He pointed to the second floor of the shop and said, "Let's go upstairs and talk."

"Yes, Senior."

This female cultivator named Xiuyun followed Lin Qing to the second floor of the shop. When he rented the shop, it came with the second floor, but it was usually used for the two mortal servants to stay overnight.

On the second floor, facing Lin Qing, Xiuyun smiled first, and then...

Rustle~

Lin Qing suddenly felt a flash of white before his eyes. This female cultivator named Xiuyun suddenly became completely naked.

"What is this?" Lin Qing asked.

After saying that, Lin Qing was about to go downstairs. Seeing this, Xiuyun quickly put on her clothes and then softly spoke to Lin Qing. Lin Qing stood at the doorway and listened to her story.

"Forgive me for being blunt, but you should go find someone else," Lin Qing said after listening.

"Senior Lin, don't you think what I just said is enough? In my opinion, only you can help me," she said.

Lin Qing waved his hand and didn't say anything more.

Standing downstairs, Xiuyun wanted to say something else to Lin Qing, but he asked her to leave the shop. Standing outside the shop, she wiped away her tears and said to Lin Qing, "Senior Lin, you have a heart as cold as ice."

Lin Qing's expression became somewhat serious, and this female cultivator left the place after finishing her words.

As for what she and Lin Qing said on the second floor just now, it was actually very simple. This female cultivator expressed her willingness to serve Lin Qing for fifty years. During this period, Lin Qing could do whatever he wanted to her. After fifty years, she would regain her freedom. As a reward, Lin Qing would also help her obtain the Foundation Building Pill.

Naturally, Lin Qing refused what she said. What a joke! Even if Lin Qing wanted her, did she really think the Foundation Building Pill was that valuable?

When he bought one before, it cost him 16,000 spirit stones. Of course, that price was a bit high. If we calculate it based on the average price of 13,000 spirit stones, then serving for fifty years would be an average of 260 spirit stones per year. In the mortal world, that would be equivalent to 2,600 gold coins and 26,000 silver coins. Do you know what that means? When Chao Yun sold herself to bury her father, she only asked for ten silver coins.

Lin Qing wanted to ask, what makes you so special to be worth that price?

If it's about the identity of a cultivator, in the Red Sun Immortal City, you can find several female cultivators to serve you with just one spirit stone. And if you add money, there are also late Qi Refining stage cultivators available. With 260 spirit stones, you can have a different one every year.

This female cultivator seemed very confident, as if Lin Qing would definitely agree.

In response, Lin Qing naturally kicked her out.

Seeing that Lin Qing was in a bad mood, Lin Xuchang didn't dare to say much. Lin Qing only told him not to let this female cultivator enter the store again, and Lin Xuchang nodded in agreement.

After that, Lin Qing returned to the inner city.

Speaking of which, since coming to the Red Sun Immortal City, Lin Qing had also considered taking concubines. After all, his Goldfinger had needs in that area. But knowing people by their appearance, Lin Qing's current identity was very different from before. He had never forgotten the scene at Xuan Yu Pavilion. Back then, as a late Qi Refining stage cultivator, he attracted so many "pure-hearted" female cultivators. Now, if he really took concubines, who knows what kind of female cultivators he would attract.

He wouldn't even want this female cultivator who was willing to offer herself without any demands.

If this woman is really as simple as she appears, how could she cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Refining? You should know that when Lin Qing was at the third level of Qi Refining, it took him more than ten years. Cultivation is by no means a simple matter.

Lin Qing even wondered if this female cultivator was deliberately sent to target him, like a trap.

But Lin Qing didn't investigate further. With the improvement of his strength, there would only be more and more of these things. All Lin Qing could do was take care of himself.

Back at his residence in the inner city, Lin Qing released the Purple Gold Toad and fed it a few pieces of snake meat. Over the past two years, as the snake meat decreased, the aura of the Purple Gold Toad continued to rise. Lin Qing felt that the Purple Gold Toad would reach the Foundation Building stage in the next few days.

So Lin Qing carefully observed the Purple Gold Toad for the next few days. Three days later, in the evening, the Purple Gold Toad successfully restored its Foundation Building stage.

When a cultivator breaks through to the Foundation Building stage, it will cause spiritual energy anomalies, and when a demonic beast breaks through, there will also be some movement. However, the Purple Gold Toad had fallen from the Foundation Building stage before, so this time, it returned to the Foundation Building stage without causing any disturbance. It appeared extremely quiet, except for its aura suddenly becoming much stronger and its body slightly swelling.

"Qua."

The Purple Gold Toad croaked and looked at Lin Qing, running to his feet as soon as it restored the Foundation Building stage, showing its intimacy.

Seeing this scene, Lin Qing felt happy. It seemed that after restoring the Foundation Building stage, the Purple Gold Toad had fully accepted him. He touched the head of the Purple Gold Toad, which was about the size of three palms. It felt soft, unlike ordinary toads. The Purple Gold Toad's body was not sticky at all, but had a faint purple color. After breaking through to the Foundation Building stage, many golden dots appeared.

Lin Qing nodded. This was probably the origin of the name Purple Gold Toad.

After becoming a Foundation Building stage cultivator, Lin Qing fed the Purple Gold Toad with snake meat again. Unlike the Qi Refining stage, after restoring the Foundation Building stage, the Purple Gold Toad seemed to be able to digest the python meat without any problem. It swallowed a few bites and then looked at Lin Qing, wanting more.

Lin Qing fed it a few more pieces. After feeding it, there was almost no snake meat left. However, Lin Qing had already hung a sign in the formation shop to purchase demonic beast corpses. He had made some purchases in the past two years.

Based on the current consumption rate, Lin Qing roughly calculated that the Purple Gold Toad would consume more than 500 spirit stones in just one year for the consumption of demonic beast blood and meat.

This was not a small amount.
