"You don't have to divide things so clearly. If you saved my life, you are kind to me. I must repay you!" Ling Xuzi smiled and said, "How is it? Are you willing to go back to Kunshan Sect with me?"
Li Tianqi pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head: "Senior Ling, I'm afraid I can't go back to Kunshan Sect with you..."
Ling Xuzi was stunned: "Why?" Ling Xuzi never expected Li Tianqi to reject him. You must know that Kunshan Sect is the largest immortal cultivation sect in the human world. How many people dream of entering Kunshan Sect to be disciples? Moreover, Li Tianqi had wanted to join Kunshan Sect before, but was rejected by Ling Xuzi in the end. This time, Ling Xuzi took the initiative to invite Li Tianqi to join Kunshan Sect, and made an exception to accept Li Tianqi as his apprentice, but he did not expect Li Tianqi to refuse directly.
"Senior Ling, thank you for your kindness. I really don't want to go to Kunshan Sect..." Li Tianqi thought a lot. His qualifications were poor, and it was not ordinary, but the worst. Even if he joined the Kunshan Sect with Lingxuzi, he would probably not be valued or even discriminated against. Even if Lingxuzi supported him behind his back, the disciples of Kunshan Sect did not dare to blatantly discriminate against Li Tianqi, and would definitely ridicule Li Tianqi behind his back. After experiencing the two major sects of Qingyun Sect and the weapon refining sect, Li Tianqi's heart was completely hurt. From the day he was driven out of the weapon refining sect, Li Tianqi had already swore: From now on, he will never join any immortal cultivation sect, and will never be ridiculed and bullied again! Never!
Li Tianqi directly refused, which made Ling Xuzi feel embarrassed, especially when there was a Ziyun man standing next to him. Ling Xuzi nodded: "Okay, since you don't want to go back to Kunshan Sect with me, then I won't force it." Speaking of this, Ling Xuzi took out a white jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Li Tianqi: "If you encounter any unsolvable difficulties in the future, go to Kunshan Sect to find me directly."
"Thank you, Senior Ling." Li Tianqi glanced at the jade pendant in his hand and found that it was a very good-quality jade pendant. The front of the jade pendant was engraved with the words "Lingxuzi" and the back of the pendant was engraved with the words "Kunshan".
"It's getting late. I'm going back to Kunshan. We'll have a date later!" After saying hello to Li Tianqi, Ling Xuzi left with Master Ziyun.
After watching Ling Xuzi and the figures of the master Ziyun disappear, Li Tianqi jumped away.
...
In the sky.
Ling Xuzi tightened his face and looked depressed.
The man from Ziyun glanced at Ling Xuzi: "Elder Ling, are you still angry that Li Tianqi rejected you?"
Ling Xuzi shook her head: "I'm not angry, I just...somewhat regret..."
The man from Ziyun was stunned: "Repent?"
"Oh..." Ling Xuzi sighed slightly: "Li Tianqi will definitely achieve something extraordinary in the future. If he can join the Kunshan Sect, it will definitely be a good thing for the Kunshan Sect."
The man from Ziyun smiled: "Elder Ling, are you too arrogant to that Li Tianqi? He is a mixed spiritual root of the five elements. His qualifications cannot be worse. How could he achieve too high achievement with his qualifications?"
"Great Elder, you can't just look at people. Li Tianqi's qualifications are poor, but his surname is very tough. As long as Li Tianqi persists in practicing hard, he will definitely make a name for himself!" Ling Xuzi had a high evaluation of Li Tianqi.
Master Ziyun curled his lips: "Whether a monk can achieve something in the future depends on his qualifications. If his qualifications are poor, no matter how tough the surname is, it will be useless."
Ling Xuzi didn't quite agree with the view of Master Ziyun: "Great Elder, what you said is essentially correct, but don't forget that there are exceptions in everything. From ancient times to the present, several people with poor qualifications have finally cultivated to a very high level of cultivation."
"What you are talking about is a very special example!" Master Ziyun frowned.
"Li Tianqi is a very special example!" Ling Xuzi's tone was very affirmative.
"Elder Ling, why do you think Li Tianqi is an extremely special example?" asked Master Ziyun.
"Great Elder, do you know what Li Tian had in his cultivation a few months ago?" Ling Xuzi said in an irresponsible question.
"How could I know!" Master Ziyun curled his lips.
"Great Elder, I tell you that Li Tianqi was just a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage a few months ago." Ling Xuzi said about his meeting Li Tianqi outside the 100,000 mountains.
A hint of surprise appeared on the face of Ziyun: "Elder Ling, you remember correctly, are you?"
Ling Xuzi shook his head: "It's absolutely correct. At that time, Li Tianqi was in the Great Perfection of Qi Refining Stage. After a few months, he had already practiced to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage. This kind of cultivation speed is probably not comparable to those with extremely high qualifications, right? Anyway, I can't go from the Great Perfection of Qi Refining Stage to the Ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage in just a few months!"
The man from Ziyun pondered for a moment: "This Li Tianqi must have had some adventure, otherwise he would not have practiced to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage in such a short time."
"Not everyone can meet an adventure. Anyone who can meet an adventure is a person with great luck." Ling Xuzi did not refute the views of Master Ziyun. In fact, in Ling Xuzi's heart, he always suspected that Li Tianqi had encountered an adventure in the past few months, so he practiced to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage in such a short time.
"You mean Li Tianqi is a lucky person?" Master Ziyun asked back.
Ling Xuzi nodded: "Yes, I think Li Tianqi has great luck. His future achievements will definitely not be bad. Today I failed to let Li Tianqi join the Kunshan Sect, which is really a big loss for the Kunshan Sect."
"Your view is exactly the opposite." Master Ziyun said lightly: "I don't think Li Tianqi will achieve great success in the future."
Ling Xuzi said with a whimper: "Then let's wait and see what kind of achievements Li Tianqi will achieve in a few years."
"I hope you won't be disappointed then." said Master Ziyun.
Ling Xuzi smiled and said nothing.
...
Since he separated from Lingxuzi and Master Ziyun, Li Tianqi came to a very quaint city. After entering the city, Li Tianqi went straight to a shop selling classics and practicing immortal magic skills.
The shop is deserted and there is no customer.
A man who looked like a shopkeeper came over and asked Li Tianqi what he wanted to buy. The shopkeeper was also a monk, and his cultivation was similar to that of Li Tianqi, and it was the eighth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Li Tianqi glanced at the store's decorations: "Do you have any classics that record strange stories here? It's best to record the past tens of thousands of years."
"Yes, of course, there are many classics in our store." The shopkeeper turned around and took a yellowed book from a wooden stand: "Here, there are many strange stories and strange things recorded here, all of which have happened in recent tens of thousands of years."
Li Tianqi took the yellowed book, opened it and looked around: "Is there anything else?"
"Yes, but there is no comprehensive record in this book." said the shopkeeper.
"Take it all for me." Li Tianqi said.
The shopkeeper stood there without moving: "Are you planning to buy it?"
Li Tianqi flipped his wrist and a black storage bag appeared in his palm. He gently weighed it: "There are all spirit stones in it, and I don't know the specific number. Anyway, there are quite a few... Since I asked you to get the classics, of course I bought them intentionally."
The shopkeeper glanced at the storage bag in Ma Xiaoyao's hand: "Okay, fellow Taoist please wait, I'll get it for you now." After that, the shopkeeper turned around and walked towards the wooden shelf where the classics were placed. In a moment, the shopkeeper came back with five or six classics: "All of them are here, these books record what has happened in the past tens of thousands of years."
Just as Li Tianqi was about to reach out to get the classics, the shopkeeper put the classics behind him. Li Tianqi frowned: "What are you doing?"
The shopkeeper looked at Li Tianqi with a smile: "If you want to watch the classics, buy them back and read them slowly, and don't read them here." The shopkeeper was worried that Li Tianqi would not buy spirit stones after reading all the contents of the classics.
Li Tianqi grinned: "How many spirit stones do you want?"
"No, no, no, just give me a thousand intermediate spirit stones." The shopkeeper said with a smile.
"What? One thousand intermediate-level spirit stones? Just these few classics cost one thousand intermediate-level spirit stones?" Li Tianqi's face suddenly darkened.
"My classics are all collected versions, and there are no other stores at all... Of course, the collector's edition is more expensive..." The shopkeeper's lips: "If you don't believe it, you can go to other stores to check it out, but when you come back... these classics are not a thousand intermediate spirit stones." The shopkeeper was obviously extorting Li Tianqi. He saw that Li Tianqi needed these classics very much, so a lion spoke up.
Li Tianqi took a deep breath: "Okay, I will give you a thousand intermediate spirit stones!" After saying that, Li Tianqi opened the storage bag, took out a thousand intermediate spirit stones and handed them to the shopkeeper.
Seeing that Li Tianqi took out a thousand intermediate spirit stones so easily, the shopkeeper suddenly felt a little regretful, regretting that the price he offered was a bit low, but the shopkeeper did not regret it. The business was about reputation. He must fulfill what he said, and he must not regret it. Otherwise, he would smash his sign and no one would dare to come to the store to buy things again. The shopkeeper packed the spirit stones and handed the book in his hand to Li Tianqi.
Li Tianqi flipped over it roughly, then put it away, then turned around and left...
"Come often when you have time!" The voice of the shopkeeper came from behind.
Li Tianqi ignored the shopkeeper and walked away on his own. In the following time, Li Tianqi visited several shops run by cultivators and bought a lot of books that recorded the past tens of thousands of years.
When it was dark, Li Tianqi returned to the inn where he lived. This was an inn run by mortals. It covers a large area and is one of the best inns in the city.
Li Tianqi closed the door, then walked to the table, reached out and waved his hand, and a large number of books appeared on the table. These books were purchased by Li Tianqi from several stores, and he spent a total of more than 10,000 intermediate spirit stones on Li Tianqi.
Li Tianqi sat on the chair and began to flip through the books. Li Tianqi read it very carefully without missing a page, and even read every line of words very seriously.
Several hours passed without realizing it.
It's almost dawn outside.
Li Tianqi had read two-thirds of the books on the table. At this moment, Li Tianqi frowned, his face was not very good, and he had read dozens of books, but he did not find any text recording Lingshan, which disappointed Li Tianqi.
More than half an hour later, there were still five books left on the table.
Li Tianqi let out a sigh of relief, reached out to pick up a book, opened it and read it. When he turned to the middle, his face suddenly became happy and found it. There was a record of Lingshan here, and Li Tianqi hurriedly checked it carefully.
The book records quite detailedly, introduces the origin of Lingshan and talks about some things about the heroes of the Human Emperor East. Finally, the book finally records the location of Lingshan... Lingshan is actually in a sea, a high-altitude and grand aura. It was very famous in the human world. Later, when the heroes of the Human Emperor East ascended the Immortal World, they used great magical powers to seal Lingshan. The seal arranged by Dongfang Yinghao is very wonderful, and can hide the entire Lingshan. It will not be automatically untied until every five hundred years later. At the same time, Lingshan will reappear in the sea... At that time, those who hold the Emperor's token can enter Lingshan to find treasures. The period is ten days. Within ten days, they must come out of Lingshan, otherwise they will be sealed in Lingshan.
