Chapter 270 Uninvited Guest

Chapter 270 Uninvited Guest

Inside the Guest Greeting Pavilion, sandalwood incense smoke curled in the air.

"Hehehe! Exchanging insights with Fellow Taoist Qin these past few days has truly benefited this old man greatly."

"For the Wei Kingdom to produce a Grandmaster of Alchemy like you is truly fortunate."

Gongsun Yang stroked his ram-horn mustache, a smile on his face as he spoke to Qin Ming.

Over these past few days, he had also been completely convinced by Qin Ming's insights into the Way of Alchemy.

"Fellow Taoist Gongsun is too kind, it's just mutual exchange."

Qin Ming also subtly obtained a good deal of Gongsun Yang's experience in refining the Core Forming Pill through their exchanges.

This exchange was quite beneficial.

After all, Gongsun Yang had immersed himself in the Way of Alchemy for hundreds of years, and with his rich experience, he certainly had unique insights.

Now, in the entire Southern Wilderness World of Cultivation, they were the only two Tier 3 Alchemists, and at this moment, they felt a sense of mutual appreciation.

Therefore, once they started exchanging ideas, they almost forgot about time.

"This old man is already in his twilight years, the future still belongs to you young people."

"Fellow Taoist Qin advanced to Grandmaster at such a young age, your Path of Immortality is boundless."

Gongsun Yang sighed with emotion, then patted Fang Han's head beside him and said:

"Fortunately, in my later years, I received a disciple who is not bad, and he can inherit my legacy."

"Fellow Taoist Qin, this disciple is one of the few I believe has the potential to reach our level in the Way of Alchemy in the younger generation."

"In the future, I hope you can take care of him."

"Fang Han, you must learn more from Senior Adept Qin when you have the opportunity."

Fang Han obediently nodded and replied, "Disciple respectfully obeys Master's teachings!"

"Hehe! Fellow Taoist Gongsun, your disciple's aptitude is indeed quite good, you have successors!" Qin Ming also smiled and said.

Gongsun Yang was probably running out of lifespan, and he had placed almost all of his hopes on this disciple with Natural Talent.

Afterwards, Gongsun Yang spoke directly to Qin Ming:

"By the way, this time I came here, I also brought a Sect Mission."

"The four Golden Core Realm Ancestors are busy dealing with the Ghost Plague of the Tai Lake Ruins and are unable to come here personally."

"They can only have this old man convey their message on their behalf."

Qin Ming's heart stirred when he heard this, as expected, the situation with the Ghost Plague was more serious than he had imagined.

At the same time, he roughly guessed what Gongsun Yang was going to say.

"I wonder if Fellow Taoist Qin is interested in joining Profound Stream Valley? The Supreme Elder has offered treatment and conditions equivalent to mine."

Qin Ming still politely declined.

"Island Lord Qin is afraid he must decline your sect's kind intentions, I do not plan to leave Moon Gazing Island for the time being."

Gongsun Yang had learned about Qin Ming's character before coming, low-key and cautious, unwilling to join any Power, a Independent Cultivator who stood aloof from the world.

He had already expected that he would be unwilling to join a Sect.

Finally, after exchanging ideas for almost enough time, Gongsun Yang bid farewell to Qin Ming.

When Gongsun Yang passed by Qin Ming's Spiritual Field, looking at the High-Level Spiritual Plant Cultivation filling the Spiritual Herb Field, envy appeared on his face.

The High-Level Spiritual Plant Cultivation here were even more diverse than those in Profound Stream Valley's Spiritual Herb Garden.

And most of them were rare and precious Spiritual Plant Cultivation that were hard to find in the outside world.

Qin Ming saw Gongsun Yang off Moon Gazing Island.

Next.

Moon Gazing Island returned to a rare period of tranquility.

Qin Ming continued to study the Golden Core Pill Formula based on the experience he had gained from Gongsun Yang.

In addition to this.

The progress of Magical Power solidification in his Sea of Qi had also completed two-thirds, with only the final part remaining.

But on this day.

Two figures flew towards Moon Gazing Lake from outside in Streaks of light.

When the Streaks of light dissipated, the figures of two Young cultivators, a man and a woman, appeared.

The Female Cultivator was at the Late Foundation Establishment realm, dressed in a long black dress, with skin as white as snow, a shapely figure, and a delicate face, possessing a charming and alluring aura.

The Young Cultivator beside her had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, with a rather arrogant Expression. He was wearing a Dharma Robe with a blue background and gold silk, and a luxurious jade crown on his head. His Cultivation was at the Perfected Foundation Establishment realm, and he also had the Qualification to attempt Core Formation realm breakthrough.

"Fellow Taoist Luofei Xue, is it here that the Moon Gazing Island Lord, who has been the talk of the town these days, resides?" the Young Cultivator asked.

The Female Cultivator named Luofei Xue gently nodded, and said in a soft voice, "That's right, it should be here. Taoist Friend Duanmu Sheng, it seems we have to announce our visit to the Moon Gazing Island Lord."

Duanmu Sheng frowned as he looked at the Mist Illusion Formation outside the Island.

Afterwards, Luofei Xue sent out a Message Talisman towards the Island.

Inside Moon Gazing Island.

Wu Jiang received the Message Talisman, and frowned slightly after opening it and taking a look.

He looked at it for a while, feeling uncertain, so he flew towards the Main Peak.

Qin Ming was tasting wine under the Spiritual Peach Tree, studying the Pill Formula. Seeing Wu Jiang arrive, he casually asked, "Has someone come to visit again?"

"Hehe, indeed, Duanmu Sheng of the Soaring Cloud Sect of Jin Kingdom and Luofei Xue of the Heavenly Sound Pavilion, two Seniors, have come from afar to pay a visit." Wu Jiang immediately said.

Qin Ming waved his hand, and said without thinking, "Refuse them, just say I am in Closed-door cultivation and not receiving guests."

Wu Jiang hurriedly acknowledged. Before leaving, he hesitated and reminded, "Island Lord, this Duanmu Sheng is said to be the True Lineage Disciple of the Soaring Cloud Sect, and is known as a Golden Core Seed."

"The Soaring Cloud Sect is the only Core Formation Realm Power in Jin Kingdom, do you want to reconsider?"

"It's fine, just do as I say. If they don't leave, then just ignore them." Qin Ming said indifferently.

"Yes!"

Afterwards, Wu Jiang went out to do as Qin Ming instructed.

As soon as he opened the Mist Illusion Formation and came out, he saw the two heroic figures in the Sky.

Wu Jiang was not Qin Ming, not even caring about a Perfected Foundation Establishment Golden Core Seed… He hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to Duanmu Sheng and Luofei Xue, then said awkwardly, "Two Seniors, I am really sorry, Island Lord is in Closed-door cultivation and not receiving guests, please return."

As soon as these words came out.

Duanmu Sheng and Luofei Xue in Mid-Air exchanged glances and instantly understood each other's meaning.

Luofei Xue asked faintly with a soft and charming voice, "What does Island Lord Qin mean by this?" "We heard on the way here that Profound Stream Valley of Liang Kingdom had just finished their visit and returned."

"Could it be that Island Lord Qin looks down on the Sects of our Jin Kingdom?"

Duanmu Sheng's gaze also turned slightly cold, and a hint of displeasure appeared on his face.

Since he became the True Inheritance of the Soaring Cloud Sect, no one had dared to directly refuse him like this.

Suddenly, he released his Spiritual Pressure of Perfected Foundation Establishment.

Wu Jiang felt as if a large mountain had crashed down on him, and felt like he was about to suffocate.

He naturally also noticed that the atmosphere was not quite right. Facing two Foundation Establishment Cultivator, he was as timid as a cicada in winter, drenched in sweat.

His eyes darted around, and he hurriedly gritted his teeth and said:

"Two… Two Seniors, please wait a moment, this junior will go and report again."

Afterwards, Wu Jiang opened the Mist Illusion Formation and returned to the Island without looking back.

He patted his chest, and said with lingering fear, "Hmph! This old man will never go out again, come in if you dare?"

Qin Ming naturally also saw everything that happened, but did not take it too seriously.

Now, a mere Perfected Foundation Establishment Cultivation could no longer pose a threat to him. Even if the Golden Core Ancestor of the Soaring Cloud Sect came, he would not bother with them.

What was important now was the major event of Core Formation. Being disturbed like this every day was not a good thing.

Those people outside couldn't get in anyway, and over time they would naturally disperse on their own.

Outside the Spiritual Island.

Half an hour passed.

Duanmu Sheng and Luofei Xue saw that the errand runner Wu Jiang had not come out for a long time, and knew that they had been played.

Frost immediately covered their faces. Duanmu Sheng's gaze was filled with gloom, and he took out a purple Spiritual Shield Spirit Artifact and flew towards the Mist Illusion.

"Good Moon Gazing Island Lord! Such airs, actually not even giving me face!"

"I, Duanmu Sheng, must see how intimidating your so-called Mist Illusion Formation really is."

Duanmu Sheng activated the Spirit Artifact, enveloping himself in the purple Spiritual Shield. In a moment, he arrived near the Mist Illusion Formation.

But just as he was about to continue forward.

From beneath the Moon Gazing Lake in front of him.

A tyrannical and cold Demonic Sense swept over unrestrainedly. The overbearing nature of the Demonic Sense made Duanmu Sheng feel a chill all over his body, as if he had fallen into an Ice Cave! He quickly mobilized the Magical Power in his body to resist the erosion of this Demonic Sense.

"Second Order Great Demon Beast, Peak Stage!"

Duanmu Sheng was extremely horrified. Not caring about whether his posture was handsome or not, he hurriedly retreated, and under Luofei Xue's puzzled gaze, he scurried back.

Without time to explain.

"Let's go!"

Duanmu Sheng grabbed Luofei Xue and escaped into the Horizon like they were fleeing for their lives.

On the Lake Surface, the massive body of the Mysterious Water Crocodile emerged. Its cold Vertical Pupils glanced at the two departing figures, and then it submerged back into the Lake.

…

After flying away for thousands of miles, Luofei Xue asked Duanmu Sheng with puzzlement, "Taoist Friend Duanmu, what exactly happened just now?"

"There is a Second Order Perfection Great Demon Beast under that Lake, probably the Moon Gazing Island Lord's Island-Protecting Spirit Beast." Duanmu Sheng said with a gloomy Expression.

"What?!"

Luofei Xue was also greatly shocked. If it was really a Second Order Perfection Great Beast, then the two of them would not even be enough to fill its teeth.

"It seems this Moon Gazing Island Lord is probably not as simple as we thought."

"Not only is his Alchemy Skill at the Grandmaster level, but his true Cultivation is probably not low either." Duanmu Sheng speculated.

"What should we do then?"

"Since it's like this, why don't we just return to Jin Kingdom? When you Breakthrough to Golden Core, let's see if this person still dares to disrespect us." Luofei Xue said.

Duanmu Sheng's gaze flickered, then he thought of something, and said coldly, "I can't swallow this anger, we don't need to take action, someone will naturally come looking for trouble for him, hmph!"

"Let's go!"

Then the figures of the two disappeared into the Horizon again.

Qin Ming naturally saw everything that had just happened. He also understood that among the Cultivator who came to visit, there were all kinds of people.

Just like the two from Jin Kingdom, Duanmu Sheng and Luofei Xue, they were obviously used to being superior and were somewhat arrogant.

Therefore, he chose to turtle up and not come out. Anyway, with the Mist Illusion in place, even Golden Core Ancestor could not enter.

…

Several more days passed.

However, before Qin Ming could enjoy two days of Tranquil days.

Another person came outside Moon Gazing Island.

Wu Jiang excitedly ran to Qin Ming with a Message Talisman and reported, "Island Lord, Pavilion Master Gu of Mirror Snow Pavilion Senior Gu has arrived, and said she is waiting outside."

"Oh? Why is she here?"

Qin Ming put away the Pill Formula in his hand, and then released his Divine Sense to take a look. A familiar silhouette was standing in the Sky outside Moon Gazing Island.

It was indeed Gu Qingzhao.

Although Qin Ming was a little puzzled, he still personally opened the Formation to welcome her out.

After he came out, he smiled calmly at Gu Qingzhao opposite him, "Taoist Friend Gu, why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming?"

"Hehe! Just passing by, so I came to see you." Gu Qingzhao Gently Smile and said.

'Hmm? Not right!'

Qin Ming looked at Gu Qingzhao in front of him, and immediately activated his Law-Breaking Double Pupils and scanned her.

In the next moment.

Without saying a word, Qin Ming cast out a Sword Art and slashed towards 'Gu Qingzhao' opposite him! As the azure Sword Light flashed past, 'Gu Qingzhao' opposite him instantly turned into a puff of black smoke and scattered.

"You were actually able to see through this Old Ancestor's Thousand Illusions Demonic Art?!"

After a breath, the black smoke re-condensed, and a figure slowly walked out from within.

"Perfected Foundation Establishment? This Magical Power Aura is a bit off… It seems that Duanmu boy gave this Old Ancestor wrong information."

…
