Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

After exchanging greetings, everyone left the hall. Some wore contemplative expressions, while others headed straight for their cultivation grounds. Li Guanchi, however, soared through the air, flying towards the bamboo forest courtyard.

He quickly returned to the courtyard, where Senior Brother Chen Heng was already waiting.

"Senior Brother Chen, what brings you here?" Li Guanchi asked, quickly opening the courtyard gate and inviting the young man inside.

Chen Heng smiled and said, "I was ordered to bring some daily necessities to you, as well as this month's monthly allowance of pills. Also, I wanted to see if Old Li has woken up."

"I'm also here to deliver Old Li's identity jade slip and the Heavenly Thunder Tower's management token."

Li Guanchi was deeply moved and hurriedly invited Chen Heng into the hall. He then retrieved a jar of Red Dust Brew and handed it to Chen Heng with a soft laugh.

"Thank you for your care, Senior Brother. I don't have much to offer, but I do have some of this wine."

Chen Heng didn't refuse; the rich aroma of the wine was already noticeable even without opening the jar. One could tell at a sniff that it was a rare vintage, possibly even brought up by Li Guanchi from the lower realm. That made it even more precious.

Chen Heng placed everything on the table and put away the wine jar. "Hahaha, this is a good thing. I won't be polite."

"But I think Old Li will need another two days to stabilize his realm, so I won't disturb him for now. If anything comes up, just send me a message."

Li Guanchi looked at Chen Heng, slightly lost in thought. "Junior Brother Li?"

"Ah, Senior Brother."

"What's wrong?" Li Guanchi licked his lips, his eyes slightly red, forcing a smile as he suppressed the surging emotions in his heart.

"It's nothing, I just remembered a Senior Sister."

Chen Heng was slightly taken aback, but he quickly realized that Li Guanchi was probably talking about a Senior Sister from the Human Spirit Realm.

"Haha, is that so? What's her name? If she ascends to the Immortal Realm in the future, I'll be sure to take care of her."

Li Guanchi lowered his head, his forehead hair covering his slightly red eyes, his voice slightly trembling. "Her name is Gu Ran, and like Senior Brother… she brought me bedding when I joined the sect and helped me across the small bridge…"

"She won't be coming up. If there really is a cycle of reincarnation, she should be almost eighteen years old this year…"

Li Guanchi's throat moved slightly, forcing back tears as he looked up and forced a smile. "Sorry, Senior Brother, I'm just being a little sentimental."

Chen Heng didn't say anything, he just got up and patted him on the shoulder. "It's okay, we're here now."

After speaking, Chen Heng said softly: "Treat this place as home, and treat us as your own brothers and sisters!"

Li Guanchi took a deep breath, calmed the waves in his heart, and nodded slightly. "Okay, since there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."

"Oh, okay, I'll go with Senior Brother, I need to go down the mountain anyway."

Chen Heng asked with some curiosity, only to find out that it was Tao Manman who had invited him. He said with some envy: "She's taking you out for a drink? That's good."

Li Guanchi asked, "Is there something special about that?"

Chen Heng didn't say much upon hearing this. "You'll know when you get there."

After the two bid farewell, the sky grew dark, and Li Guanchi hung his identity jade slip on his waist and flew down the mountain.

Along the way, Li Guanchi saw many disciples going up the mountain, smiling and nodding in greeting. Soon, he arrived at the foot of the mountain and saw the petite figure of Tao Manman at a glance.

"Is everything settled? Has your master not woken up yet?" Li Guanchi stood next to her, a full head taller, and turned to look at the woman.

"Thank you for your concern, Senior Sister. The realm increased too much, so it will take some time."

Tao Manman frowned slightly upon hearing this, then closed her eyes slightly and released her divine sense to search through her storage ring for a while. After a long while, she opened her eyes and took out a jade box made of purple-gold crystal, handing it to Li Guanchi.

"It's really hard to find pills that the Composite Body Realm can take… This Soul Fusion Pill should be of some use, take it."

Li Guanchi didn't hesitate, because his master really needed a pill that could fuse his soul. The Old Sect Master's power was equivalent to directly raising the old man's cultivation realm to a level that he had not experienced soul division.

But the power in this pill could allow the old man to perfectly digest his current cultivation realm, and it could also make up for all the insights of soul division!

"Thank you, Senior Sister, I won't be polite."

After putting away the pill, he heard the woman's laughter. "Not bad, generous and not at all coy."

"What you said to Junior Brother Zhao Changqing today was good."

Li Guanchi's heart stirred, it seemed that Tao Manman's status among the sixty-sixth generation of disciples was not low. Tao Manman raised her hand and threw out a green leaf, which swelled to the size of ten feet in the wind, and flew up into the air. Looking at Li Guanchi, who was still stunned, she waved her hand. "What are you looking at? Come on up."

Li Guanchi flew onto the green leaf, and the veins of the green leaf showed a silvery-white color. Tao Manman released a powerful barrier with a wave of her hand, enveloping the green leaf. Then, the green leaf under her feet burst out at an incredible speed!!

And Li Guanchi also clearly felt the cultivation realm of the petite woman beside him. Heavenly Immortal Realm, Seventh Level! Li Guanchi couldn't sense the other party's bone age, but he could vaguely feel that the woman's age should be much older than him. But even so, the woman was definitely not over a hundred years old!

It was even very likely that her cultivation age was only sixty or seventy years old. This talent… This made Li Guanchi have to sigh again at how high the starting point of the Immortal Realm cultivators was.

The Mahayana Realm, etc., which they struggled for decades or even hundreds or thousands of years, was just the most basic cultivation realm in their eyes. The speed of the green leaf was extremely fast, crossing thousands of feet in one breath, and the surrounding scenery retreated quickly. Tao Manman crossed her arms and said softly.

"Taking you there this time is also to let you see the senior brothers and sisters of other peaks. In Heavenly Pillar Peak, some tasks are extremely difficult, so some tasks are taken on in cooperation. The risks are high, and the rewards are also very rich."

"Moreover, the sect will only care about whether you complete the task, and everything else you get will belong to the disciples."

Li Guanchi nodded slightly upon hearing this, and then opened his mouth to continue the conversation. "So, disciples of comparable strength in the sect will cooperate with each other and work together to become long-term teammates?"

Tao Manman turned her head to look at Li Guanchi with some surprise. "You even know this?"

Li Guanchi smiled and said, "Of course, the sects in the Human Spirit Realm are also like this."

Speaking of this, Li Guanchi shrugged his shoulders. He did very few tasks back then, and he himself was a bit of a lone wolf, not liking to be with others. This kind of personality only changed after the battle in the Ziyang Hall, and then he met Ye Feng. Tao Manman nodded without speaking. The two of them were riding on the green leaf, flying through the air at an extremely fast speed. Soon, they arrived at a small city dozens of miles away.
