Chapter 272: Chapter 270: Su Qing is Dispatched
Su Qing had only been in Cultivation for a little over a month.
——
Host: Su Qing
Realm: Ninth-Layer Hundred Veins [Micro Meridian Refining Method: Mastery (561/1000)]
Foundation Establishment Eighth Layer [Immortal Transformation Realm Method: Mastery (721/1000)]
——
At the same time, he continued to refine some Elixirs in order to maintain his identity as a Pill Master.
This very morning, an acquaintance came looking for Su Qing.
"Fellow Daoist Tao." Su Qing bowed as usual.
"Ah, Fellow Daoist Ye." Tao Mingze returned the gesture, clasping his hands in respect.
"I’ve come today regarding two matters."
"First, the Sect Lord predicts that the Moon Palace Secret Realm will open again next month. We will be able to enter and search for treasures."
"The second matter is that Lord Bai wants to dispatch you to the capital of Cyan Moon Country, a territory under the Moon God Palace, to stand guard there for one year."
Su Qing frowned. ’Leaving the Sect is a problem. This means the first matter likely has nothing to do with me.’
"Cyan Moon Country is the closest territory to our Moon God Palace, and your assignment is not related to the Secret Realm’s opening."
"Fellow Daoist, you’ll only need to purchase a Flying Magical Artifact, and you’ll be able to make a round trip within two days."
Su Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief. "That’s good. It won’t affect my entry into the Secret Realm, will it?"
"Of course not. By the way, Lord Bai asked me to give this to you." Tao Mingze took out a purplish-gold Token. It felt heavy in his hand.
Tao Mingze smiled. "This is a Sect Token. It can also be used for communication. When the Secret Realm opens, we will all receive a message from the Sect Lord."
"So there’s no need to worry."
As if a great weight had been lifted, Su Qing said, "I’ve never been to the Moon Palace Secret Realm. I hope I can find some Spirit Fruits."
"Sigh. There are Spirit Fruits, but they’re only Tiers One and Two. The same goes for the Spirit Medicines."
"Generally speaking, only those of us in the Foundation Establishment and Qi Cultivation Realms can enter."
"For the masters in the Golden Core Realm, the Spirit Medicines and Spirit Fruits inside are practically useless."
"It’s better to go to Qingsu Island to purchase High-Tier Spirit Medicines and Spirit Fruits. They’re cheap, effective, and available in large quantities, with effects just like regular ones."
"I really don’t know how those few Cultivators over there manage it, especially since *that person* is already dead." Tao Mingze said vaguely, his eyes filled with curiosity.
’That person... he’s probably referring to Su Qing.’
Everyone generally believed that Su Qing was already dead.
"Qingsu Island... I’ve only heard of it. As for the Celestial Sea Realm, I have been there, but it was far too cruel. For Loose Cultivators like us, we were like duckweed drifting in the water, completely without roots."
"Oh? Fellow Daoist Ye has actually been to the Celestial Sea Realm?"
"Of course." Su Qing nodded.
He invited the other man to a nearby pavilion, since it wasn’t ideal to continue their conversation while standing.
...
"There’s no need, Fellow Daoist Ye. I’m only here to deliver a message."
"I’ll be taking my leave. Lord Bai is at the Alchemy Hall inside the Sect’s Pocket World. You should go report to him before heading to Cyan Moon Country."
Tao Mingze declined Su Qing’s invitation.
"In that case, I’ll see Fellow Daoist Tao off."
"No, no, we can just fly off."
"Farewell, Fellow Daoist Ye," Tao Mingze said, clasping his hands.
"Yes, farewell, Fellow Daoist Tao." Su Qing clasped his hands and bowed.
Seeing the other man leave, Su Qing couldn’t help but smile.
But inwardly, he was thinking, ’I get to enter a Secret Realm so soon. And the resources inside are only Tiers One and Two... perfect.’
’With another year, I can break through to the Divinity Transformation Realm inside.’
With his current aptitude, Su Qing could already cultivate very quickly.
He just needed a little more time.
Not long after.
Su Qing found the entrance to the Pocket World where the Moon God Palace was located.
Upon stepping inside, he was greeted by a scene of lush mountains and pristine waters. The Spiritual Qi here was no different from the outside world. The entire Pocket World consisted of a single, enormous mountain before him, completely covered in buildings. The rest of the land was entirely flat.
It was like entering a Sacred Land.
Su Qing had already memorized the location of the Alchemy Hall.
So he had no trouble after entering and flew straight toward a hall halfway up the mountain.
This Alchemy Hall was truly magnificent, with Spirit Stones decorating every surface.
"Which Elixirs would you like to buy, disciple?" a Female Cultivator at the counter asked with a smile.
Su Qing shook his head and took out his Token. "I’m looking for Lord Bai."
The moment she saw Su Qing’s Token, her smile vanished, replaced by a respectful expression. "My lord, Elder Bai is inside. Please follow me."
Su Qing followed her.
The Female Cultivator then said, "Lord Bai is currently performing Alchemy. Please wait a moment."
"Alright. You may go about your business." Su Qing had the patience to wait.
After waiting for several hours, Su Qing still hadn’t grown impatient, as he was busy experiencing the sensations his Immortal Body provided him.
Clarity. It allowed him to perceive all changes in his surroundings.
This included the changes in countless minute existences.
If he focused on it, he probably wouldn’t get bored even after a month.
"The newly promoted Pill Master Ye, Ye Shengliang, is it?" A Golden Core Cultivator suddenly appeared. Su Qing had seen him before.
It was the one who had been drinking tea in the hall after the other Golden Core Cultivator died.
"Yes, Elder." Su Qing stood up and bowed.
"Are you planning to leave for Cyan Moon Country today?"
"Yes." Su Qing nodded.
"Then let’s arrange your year-long station. Witnessing the prosperity of the mortal world will always benefit you greatly," Bai Jianghe said faintly.
His youthful face carried a trace of world-weariness.
"Sigh! Why did *that person* have to die here? Why is it that all the mortals in the lands surrounding the Moon God Palace have suddenly gained aptitude for cultivation?"
He suddenly made a remark that Su Qing didn’t understand.
Bai Jianghe handed Su Qing a Jade Pendant. It was inlaid with a gold border, shaped like a moon, and adorned with patterns of flowers and plants.
"Go. This is the symbol of your status as the one stationed there."
"Yes, my lord."
"If there’s nothing else, you may leave." Bai Jianghe was already dismissing him.
Su Qing simply clasped his hands and said, "Farewell, Elder Bai."
After receiving the Jade Pendant,
Su Qing quietly left.
There were still quite a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators in this Pocket World.
Su Qing’s unremarkable appearance didn’t attract any attention at all.
...
「Cyan Moon Country.」
Su Qing ended up using his own flying sports car to get there.
The Magical Artifact hadn’t been broken in the first place.
Piloting the Magical Artifact was just for show; he arrived at Cyan Moon Country very quickly.
That was what made Su Qing happy.
At that moment, above the Imperial Palace, a group of people was actually lined up in neat rows.
At their head was the current Emperor.
"We respectfully welcome the Immortal Master," the Emperor called out.
Prompting countless officials behind him to bow.
"We respectfully welcome the Immortal Master."
"..."
Su Qing was puzzled. Where were the Cultivators from the Demon-Extermination Bureau?
"There’s no need to bow. Where is the place in Cyan Moon Country that manages Cultivators?"
"In reply to the Immortal Master, they are currently exterminating Demon Fiends. Recently, for some unknown reason, Cyan Moon Country has been plagued by Demon Fiends, and the Moon Viewing Pavilion is short on manpower."
"..." After hearing this, Su Qing didn’t know what to say.
"Alright, where is the Moon Viewing Pavilion?"
"I’ll go there myself."
"My lord, it’s that tall pavilion over there." The Emperor pointed to a corner of the Imperial Palace where a particularly conspicuous pavilion stood. It was large and tall, standing fifty meters high.
It was built entirely of wood, a true marvel of construction.
"Alright. All of you, return to your duties." Su Qing nodded and piloted his Flying Magical Artifact over.
Su Qing arrived at the highest point.
He could see quite a few First-Layer Qi Cultivation disciples bustling about.
Among them, there was only one at the Qi Cultivation Sixth Layer, the strongest Cultivator present.
But he had already entered his old age.
Su Qing’s arrival on his Magical Artifact was very conspicuous.
"We respectfully welcome you, my lord."
"We respectfully welcome you, my lord."
...
The people of the Moon Viewing Pavilion also began to bow to the newly arrived Su Qing.
"No need for formalities. Go about your business."
