The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple

Yan Xiaohu immediately let out a sly laugh and said, "This is exactly what I was waiting to hear. With the two of us brothers taking action, dealing with them is like slicing melons and chopping vegetables. But you'll still need to disguise yourself a bit."

Zhou Qing nodded and said, "Of course, that's necessary. But this time, it's actually an opportunity. I'll have Master take me out, and then I'll say that during the fight with the opponents, I accidentally triggered a Secret Realm and found some good stuff that cured me."

Yan Xiaohu's eyes lit up as soon as he heard it: "Not bad, not bad. With the 'Void Realm Dharma Aspect,' at most we can suppress the realm a bit; it's not like we'll always have to sneak around."

"Oh right, I almost forgot the main matter!" Yan Xiaohu immediately took out six top-grade Spirit Stones and handed them over.

The Storage Bags they picked up this time, along with other miscellaneous items inside, including lower-grade Spirit Stones, had all been partially liquidated by Yan Xiaohu in the sect.

After all, top-grade Spirit Stones are still better.

Zhou Qing hadn't expected there to be so many and was delighted as he received them.

"When do you plan to set out?" Zhou Qing asked.

Yan Xiaohu shook his head and said, "That still depends on the specific arrangements of the sect. Now, a large amount of information is continuously being reported back, so we'll have to wait until it's integrated. Don't worry, there will be plenty of opportunities for us brothers to make a fortune coming up."

Zhou Qing understood: "My old hen..."

"I just remembered I have something to do, so I'm leaving now!" Before Zhou Qing could finish his sentence, Yan Xiaohu had already dashed away in a flash, disappearing from sight.

Leaving Zhou Qing speechless.

He then placed one of the Wood Attribute Spirit Stones into a box.

"Three Fire attribute Spirit Stones remaining, one Wood and one Water attribute—only the Gold and Earth attribute Spirit Stones left!"

Zhou Qing was delighted, unexpectedly finding that saving them up goes quite quickly. Soon, he would be able to fully repay his Master.

Right at this moment, Lu Yaoyao sent a message.

[Zhou, where were you when we raided the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect? I couldn't find you anywhere and was very worried.]

Zhou Qing could only reply, saying, "I was out handling some private matters. Don't worry."

Soon, a message came back.

[That's good. I'm probably going out with Second Senior Brother and the others to accumulate points. Will you continue to hide?]

Zhou Qing thought for a moment and said, "I'm still considering it. You stay safe."

[Got it.]

After their brief conversation, Zhou Qing settled down and once again began studying the 'Golden Crow Burning Sky Scripture.'

Although he hadn't yet mastered it, its power was already evident when he killed Meng Xing, one of the five great prodigies of the Cangyan Daoist Palace.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed, and Phecda Sect had ultimately announced its alliance with the Cangyan Daoist Palace.

From then on, the three-versus-two situation was firmly established, and the conflict between the sides rapidly escalated, leading to a sharp increase in slaughter.

The battles quickly escalated to involve Nascent Soul tier contestants, although no Divinity Transformation tier fighters had yet entered the fray.

Every day, injured disciples from the five major sects returned. The Task Hall and the Exchange Hall were busy day and night, almost never pausing for a moment.

All the returning disciples wore grim faces and had firm expressions, their bodies pervaded by a thick killing aura.

After tasting the benefits of success, they rested briefly before exchanging some pills and weapons and choosing to set out again.

This was a period of transformation as well as elimination!

At this point, Zhou Qing finally achieved Minor Achievement in the 'Golden Crow Burning Sky Scripture.'

"Let's first deal with some of those malevolent spirits to get some practice and find my rhythm!"

Zhou Qing was filled with excitement. Then he took out a top-grade Spirit Stone and placed it on the Red Token. In an instant, his consciousness was transported into the space of the Divine Ruins Celestial Palace.

"Yo, No. 1, you're here! It's been such a long time!"

As soon as Zhou Qing entered, the No. 4 Green Sphere greeted him enthusiastically.

When Zhou Qing looked, he found that all three light spheres were present.

However, he didn't have a good impression of the No. 4 Green Sphere, so he remained silent and continued to act cold, not saying a word.

On the contrary, the No. 6 Blue Sphere spoke softly, "No. 1, we were just talking about a strange tale. Do you want to listen in?"

Zhou Qing thought for a moment and then nodded. After all, there was no rush.

Seeing this, No. 6 Blue Sphere slowly said, "No. 1, do you know about the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown?"

"What do you mean?" Zhou Qing asked, puzzled.

No. 6 quickly said, "Don't get me wrong. The Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown is the top-tier Nascent Soul in the Nascent Soul Realm ranking. Its future achievements are limitless. As long as it doesn't fall, it will smoothly advance into the Spirit Severing Realm. However, have you ever heard of the Four Flowers Gathering at the Crown?"

When Zhou Qing heard the last line from the No. 6 Blue Sphere, he immediately looked at her in disbelief.

Fortunately, they were all light spheres, and their voices were processed, so no one noticed his odd reaction.

Zhou Qing seemed to think of something and forced himself to stay calm, saying, "How could there be a Four Flowers Gathering at the Crown? I've never heard of it."

The No. 4 Green Sphere also echoed, "I've never heard of it either. A trace of Heavenly Dao Qi with Yin and Yang found once in a millennium is already rare. Even if someone is lucky enough to obtain it, breaking through is extremely dangerous. Those who are fortunate enough to gather one or two flowers should already count themselves blessed."

The No. 5 Cyan Sphere also said, "That's right. If a hundred people obtain the Yin Yang Qi, only one or two might successfully gather Three Flowers in the end. The rest almost always stop at one or two flowers, let alone four. What you said just now is hard to believe, and I still find it too far-fetched."

Zhou Qing immediately looked at the No. 6 Blue Sphere.

She was actually a girl and knew about the Four Flowers Gathering at the Crown.

In that case, she must either be within the Holy Martial Dynasty or in one of the nearby fourth-level Cultivation Countries.
