Longevity: Starting as a Sect Servant-Chapter 324 - 231: Dao Sect of the Spirit Realm (Long - )_2
After finishing speaking, she turned and left.
Li An was stunned. He gently opened a gap in the lock spirit box, and a rich medicinal aroma instantly hit him in the face. A beam of golden light struggled desperately as if trying to escape from the lock spirit box.
But this lock spirit box was very advanced, with array patterns floating around, blocking it.
This is a... top-grade Nascent Soul Pill!
Li An closed the box, feeling complicated for a moment.
The top-grade Nascent Soul Pill is not easy to refine. This pill should have been prepared for him by Tan Qingxue in the Demon Realm.
......
Back at the Imperial Palace, Li An went to meet Zhan Qingxuan.
"Thank you, senior, for your kindness!"
He bowed respectfully.
"It’s just a small matter, no need to thank me."
Zhan Qingxuan was calm and composed, still indifferent.
Li An took out the lock spirit box and said, "Li An has fulfilled his wish in this life and asks for nothing more. Now, the most precious thing on me is this item. In gratitude for the senior’s life-saving grace and kind assistance, I offer it to you with all sincerity--"
He presented the top-grade Primordial Spirit Pill!
This was a decision he made after careful consideration. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
After going to the Dao Sect, he would definitely be checked again, and nothing on him would escape their notice.
The spirit stones, magical artifacts, and talismans left on him were nothing of importance to the Spirit Realm’s sects, but this top-grade Primordial Spirit Pill was of significant value to a Core Formation cultivator.
After arriving at the Dao Sect, with him being a cripple holding such an item, its blessing or curse would be hard to predict!
Tan Qingxue would surely do well in the Dao Sect in the future, and her giving Li An this pill naturally showed her confidence in protecting him, but Li An... never liked entrusting his life to others.
Moreover, Tan Qingxue had given him such an item, and Zhan Qingxuan couldn’t possibly be unaware, as their every move was surely under the watch of people like Zhan Qingxuan now.
In that case, Li An might as well take the initiative to test things!
Offering it to Zhan Qingxuan, on the one hand, would make her believe even more that Li An was utterly a cripple; anyone with even a shred of hope for continuing cultivation wouldn’t be willing to give up something like a top-grade Nascent Soul Pill. On the other hand, it was an opportunity to form a connection with Zhan Qingxuan. After all, the situation at the Dao Sect was unknown, and he was almost regarded as a remnant of the Demon Sect... having one or two people to speak on his behalf was beneficial.
Most importantly, in his view, Zhan Qingxuan was unlikely to value this item highly!
She was barely over a thousand years old and already a Divinity Transformation cultivator, a rare genius of her era. Accepting Li An’s top-grade Primordial Spirit Pill now might seem like taking advantage of someone’s difficulties, and with her pride and ambition, she wouldn’t let her Dao Heart get sullied.
Moreover, if she accepted it, that was also a good thing, earning him a favor.
As for the Nascent Soul matter, first getting through the immediate crisis was the priority, with plans for the future to be made gradually!
The Spirit Realm is rich with resources, and with Shangguan Xiaoxiao’s help, self-refining a top-grade Nascent Soul Pill in the future wasn’t hopeless.
Li An’s principle was to eliminate all risks that could be eliminated!
Zhan Qingxuan looked at Li An, her eyes seemingly carrying a hint of a smile. With a wave of her hand, the lock spirit box flew directly into her hand, and she said, "Alright, I’ll accept it. Thank you."
Li An was suddenly a bit stunned, damn it, did he make the wrong bet?
He pretended to be happy, ready to take his leave, but Zhan Qingxuan suddenly said, "For your report on the Demon Sect’s eldest princess, there’s merit, and a reward is due. This Nascent Soul Pill, I’ll grant it back to you."
After speaking, the lock spirit box flew back into Li An’s hand.
Li An was momentarily stunned before realizing this, expressing his gratitude endlessly!
"Prepare yourself, we’ll be departing for the Dao Sect tomorrow."
Zhan Qingxuan waved her hand.
Li An stepped out.
In his heart, he felt quite surprised, realizing that this Zhan Qingxuan was truly a force not to be trifled with.
Intelligent and wise!
It was evident she saw through Li An’s intentions, but instead of exposing them, she first accepted it and then granted it back to him, making it, so no one dared to rob him once he arrived at the Dao Sect?
Zhan Qingxuan granting it to him gave him a reputation that required thoughtful consideration from anyone.
Was it kindness?
Or perhaps, in her eyes, Li An had some other use, so she preemptively won him over?
In any case, Li An ended up owing her a favor.
Li An didn’t dwell on it any longer; after all, it was all a good thing!
...
"A top-grade Nascent Soul Pill, this person is quite aware... But senior sister, isn’t your younger sister about to reach Nascent Soul stage? Why not accept it?"
Zeng Xueyao asked.
Zhan Qingxuan said indifferently, "Qingyi’s Nascent Soul matter is her own karma; others can’t help with it. Moreover, if I accepted something given to him by Tan Qingxue, wouldn’t that offend her?"
"Her talent is not beneath mine, and with her being noticed by the Celestial Fox Patriarch, I wouldn’t want to end up with an additional enemy in the sect in the future."
Zeng Xueyao nodded thoughtfully, with a solemn expression.
...
The next day.
In front of the Great Li Imperial Palace, Li An, Tan Qingxue, Xiang Yuntian, An Li, the Cyan Dragon Demon King, and some other sect geniuses stood behind Zhan Qingxuan and the others.
Rumble!
A beam of white light connected through the barrier in the sky, reaching directly to the Great Li imperial nest.
"Let’s go!"
Everyone stepped forward, entering the passage between the two realms.
Through the hazy white light, Li An and Tan Qingxue both instinctively glanced at the northern part of Great Li.
Many memories originated from there, and for this leaving, they might never return.
...
The kaleidoscope of light and shadow seemed to traverse through numerous light projections, and the Emperor Origin Realm was getting further and further, eventually leaving only a vast expanse of white.
After an unspecified duration, new, vague scenes slowly emerged.
As these scenes became clearer, Li An looked forward, seeing a vast, boundless land of scenic mountains and rivers, stretching endlessly into the horizon.
