Chapter 66: Becoming a Guest

True Treasure Pavilion.

…

Shen Ping stepped across the threshold. He saw Mu Jin waiting in a waist-length white dress. Their eyes intertwined, and her sweet smile bloomed. “Talisman Master Shen, follow me.” As she spoke, she turned around and walked forward. The pink belt around her waist fluttered.

Shen Ping followed closely with a serious expression. He came to the backyard hall. Waves of spiritual pressure surged in his face.

Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

He suppressed the slightly fluctuating spiritual energy in his body and walked into the hall.

Shopkeeper Ding smiled and said, “Talisman Master Shen, you’ve broken through to the seventh level of Qi Refinement. According to the previous contract, you can obtain the guest wooden token of the True Treasure Pavilion.”

He turned around and said respectfully, “These three are the Foundation Establishment Guests of the True Treasure Pavilion. They are Senior Cui, Senior Ruan, and Senior Luo.” Shen Ping hurriedly bowed respectfully. After that, he said again, “Thank you for guiding me in the previous assessment.”

…..

Talisman Master Cui, who was sitting on the right and had white hair and beard, stroked his beard and said, “Talisman Master Shen, if you can break through to the late stage of Qi Refinement in such a short period of time, 1 believe that the hope of building your foundation before the age of 60 is still very high. At that time, you and 1 will be Fellow Daoists. There’s no need to be so respectful.”

Senior Luo, who had fat on the left side of his face, smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist Cui is right. As guests of the True Treasure Pavilion, we should take care of each other in the future.”

Talisman Master Ruan, who was in the middle, had the thickest aura. He deliberately restrained himself and walked forward. With a solemn expression, he handed over a wooden token carved with sword-shaped words. “Talisman Master Shen, with this wooden token, you will be a guest of the True Treasure Pavilion in the future. While enjoying the treatment and resources of the True Treasure Pavilion, you have to remember your responsibility.”

Shen Ping nodded heavily and took the guest wooden token with both hands.

“Congratulations, Guest Elder Shen.” Shopkeeper Ding cupped his hands and smiled.

The atmosphere in the hall seemed to relax a lot.

Talisman Master Cui chuckled and said, “Most of the people who can become a guest elder of the True Treasure Pavilion are Foundation Establishment cultivators. It’s really rare for Guest Elder Shen to obtain a guest elder’s wooden token at the late stage of Qi Refinement.”

A smile appeared on Talisman Master Ruan’s face. “Guest Elder Shen’s Talisman Daoism is indeed not low.”

Senior Luo nodded and teased, “Let’s not praise each other anymore. If we continue, Guest Elder Shen won’t be able to stand.”

After Shen Ping thanked him respectfully, he turned around and left. He walked to the backyard. He felt comfortable all over. When he looked up and saw a beautiful figure in front of him, he was slightly stunned.

“Talisman Master Shen, why don’t you take a seat in the private room? Since you’ve become a guest elder of the True Treasure Pavilion, I believe there are many things you need to understand.”

Hearing Mu Jin’s words, Shen Ping nodded. “Please.”

Although the contract described the treatment and duties of the guest elder in detail, there were some things that he still needed to know more about. For example, the guest elder could go to the third floor of the True Treasure Pavilion, but he had heard from Mu Jin that there were several areas on the third floor that were not allowed to enter without a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation.

He followed behind. Only then did he have the time to admire Mu Jin’s outline from the corner of his eye. He did not know if it was an illusion. He realized that the curves had become even smoother. He could even vaguely see…

Just as he was fantasizing, Mu Jin suddenly turned around. Shen Ping hurriedly said, “Fellow Daoist Mu, the dress you changed into suits you quite well. The belt is also not bad.”

A smile flashed across Mu Jin’s eyes. She asked casually, “Does Talisman Master Shen not have a Dao companion yet? If you need one, I can introduce her to you.”

“Thank you, Fellow Daoist Mu.” Shen Ping replied, “1 already have a dao companion.”

Mu Jin said nothing more. The two of them chatted in the private room for an hour, allowing Shen Ping to have a clearer understanding of the various treatments and responsibilities of the guests of the True Treasure Pavilion.

“In the True Treasure Pavilion, contribution is very important. As long as you have contribution points, you can directly exchange for precious resources and even hire Foundation Establishment Cultivators to protect you. The restrictions on the identity of a guest elder are not too big. Only by upgrading to the identity of a deacon will the True Treasure Pavilion have strict restrictions.”

He left the True Treasure Pavilion.

Shen Ping thought about the main point that Mu Jin had mentioned. A third-grade guest could only be considered to have stepped into the threshold of the True Treasure Pavilion. In terms of treatment, he was better than a member like Mu Jin and had higher authority to buy resources.

Other than the increase in the number of talismans sold every year, there were only two or three additional responsibilities. One of the key ones was that he could not stand by and do nothing when the True Treasure Pavilion was in danger.

Of course, the True Treasure Pavilion did not require guest elders to live and die with the True Treasure Pavilion. This made Shen Ping feel relieved.

“There are indeed a lot of supplementary cultivation resources at the Qi Refinement Realm in the True Treasure Pavilion. No wonder Shopkeeper Ding looked like he did not care about my spiritual root aptitude during the assessment. With such cultivation resources, as long as I contributed enough and had enough spirit stones, no matter how bad it was, 1 could still reach the Foundation Establishment Realm.

“I have to increase my divine sense as soon as possible and try to make Level Two talismans to earn spirit stones.”

He looked a little relaxed.

When he was at the low level of Qi Refinement, he felt that Foundation Establishment was an extravagant hope. Now, his status had increased, although Foundation Establishment was still a little difficult, it was no longer out of reach.

Back at Yunhe Alley.

A burnt smell spread out from the wooden window of house No. 1.

Shen Ping looked up and noticed that Alchemist Feng’s face was filled with loneliness. Recently, Alchemist Feng rarely went out and stayed in the house to refine pills, as if he wanted to break through to a high-level alchemist.

“Talisman Master Shen… Eh, you’ve broken through to the late stage of Qi Refinement? Congratulations! Sigh, 1 don’t have Talisman Master Shen’s luck. I originally planned to refine high-level medicinal pills in one go, but unfortunately, I failed consecutively. If I still can’t advance, I really have no hope of building my foundation in this life.” Alchemist Feng sighed deeply.

He was even older than Shen Ping. Although he had long reached the seventh level of Qi Refinement, the cultivation time at the late stage of Qi Refinement would become longer and longer. When he reached the ninth level of Qi Refinement, he needed to polish his spiritual energy to be round and thick to prepare for the foundation.

Shen Ping understood Alchemist Feng very well. He comforted him, “Alchemist Feng, don’t be anxious…”

He was halfway through his sentence when the wooden window not far away was pushed open. Mu Yushuang smiled and mocked, “Fellow Daoist Feng, I’ve already said that you should learn from Talisman Master Shen and marry to enjoy yourself. Perhaps you can break through to become a high-level Alchemy Master.”

This time, Alchemist Feng did not refute. He chuckled and said, “Perhaps.”

When Mu Yushuang saw this, she pursed her lips and ignored him. Instead, she looked at Shen Ping. “Talisman Master Shen, come to my room and sit for a while. I’ve brewed spirit tea and want you to taste it carefully. 1 guarantee that you’ll have an endless aftertaste.”

Shen Ping cupped his hands and said that he still had something to do. Then, he quickly returned to the house with Yu Yan.

Alchemist Feng hesitated. “How has Fellow Daoist Mu been recently?”

“Why? Are you thinking of hitting on me now? It’s too late!”

Bang!

Mu Yushuang closed the wooden window.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye.

As the weather gradually became hot, Cloud Mountain Parlour seemed to be restless.

In particular, the number of demonic cultivators in the Chen Market at the edge of the Cloud Mountain Swamp gradually increased. Faced with this situation, a large number of rogue cultivators began to run towards the Cloud Mountain Parlour. They did not dare to continue staying in the Chen Market.

The Chen family had no choice but to increase the number of Foundation Establishment cultivators guarding the market. They wanted to stabilize the rogue cultivators, but they could not suppress them. In the end, they had a conflict with the demonic cultivators and fought a huge battle. There was no follow-up.

When Shen Ping heard Yu Yan mention this, he could only shake his head repeatedly. The Chen family was a cultivation family of the Golden Sun Sect. If the Golden Sun Sect wanted to restrain the Luosha Demonic Valley, they would have done so long ago.

“I wonder if this situation will spread to Cloud Mountain Parlour…”
