Chapter 460: 148 Perfect Dao Method, Five Turns Golden Core (10K Votes) _2
Su Yu and the others: “….”
Su Yu waved his hand for Taixu to go play by himself.
Soon after, everyone entered the exquisite courtyard where Taoist Qingquan lived and sat down.
It had been over four years since they arrived at the Immortal Mansion, and this was their first gathering.
After entering the Immortal Mansion, Taoist Qingquan no longer concealed her cultivation aura. Now, it was apparent that she had already reached the eighth level of Core Formation realm.
She was not far from the ninth level of the Core Formation Realm.
Once everyone was seated, Taoist Qingquan invited Junior Brother Kong Yun to prepare Spiritual Tea for them.
Su Yu tasted the Spiritual Tea while studying Taoist Qingquan, Luo Qianyu, and others. Despite only a few years of absence, there seemed to be an aura change in them.
Taoist Qingquan was naturally beautiful and now dressed in a light green dress. The butterfly belt around her waist accentuated her proud figure. Even though she wasn’t as bright as her master, Taoist Liqueur, she had a contrasting disposition.
Taoist Liqueur was as fiery as wine, while Taoist Qingquan was as pure as a mountain spring, possessing entirely distinct qualities.
At the moment, Taoist Qingquan’s cultivation was evident, much higher than theirs.
Of course, she didn’t share the details, and Su Yu and others did not pry.
The Sword Dao aura around Luo Qianyu had further sharpened. Sitting beside her, one could feel the strong aura in the air, like a human-shaped Dao sword, even Su Yu could sense it.
Her white dress enhanced her stunning beauty. Years had gone by, and her ethereal face remained youthful without a trace of wrinkles, appearing even more captivating and regal.
The changes in Taoist Shuhai’s aura were not too drastic. He was still at the third level of the Core Formation Realm, but one could clearly feel his aura was more robust and profound.
Kong Yun and Jiang Meng showed no significant changes either. Their cultivation remained at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, still honing their Dao foundation.
Su Yu looked at Taoist Qingquan and said: “Qingquan….”
Taoist Qingquan interrupted, saying: “Junior Sister!”
Su Yu paused and asked: “Junior Sister Qingquan, what daily tasks do you plan to undertake?”
Taoist Qingquan smiled satisfactorily, saying: “Anything will do, but I want to go outside for a while, so I might pick up tasks related to patrolling the Magic City or resource spots.”
“You may join me, or pursue the daily tasks you prefer, not necessarily needing to go out together.”
Su Yu was not familiar with these, so he curiously asked: “What kind of daily tasks are there?”
Taoist Qingquan replied: “There are tasks like guarding the Immortal Gate, tending to medicine gardens, spiritual fields, Beast Taming Forest, etc. There are also tasks to patrol the dominion outside the Immortal Gate or fulfilling bounties set by the Immortal Gate, whichever you prefer.”
“We can go to the Affairs Hall later and see.”
Su Yu nodded and asked: “Junior Sister, what do you plan for the future? Will you continue cultivating in the Immortal Mansion or return to the Cultivation Moon Palace once you’re done?”
Taoist Qingquan replied: “I naturally intend to continue cultivating in the Immortal Mansion. Currently, the Cultivation Moon Palace is overseen by the Palace Master and Ancestor, and there won’t be any problems if I’m not there.”
“Rather, it would be more beneficial if I cultivate well in the Immortal Mansion. This way, the relationship between the Cultivation Moon Palace and the Immortal Mansion can be deepened. Secondly, if the Cultivation Moon Palace needs any cultivation resources, I can help them here.”
“As for future prospects —we’ll talk about that later. Nobody can predict.”
“Perhaps, when I reach the ninth level of the Core Formation Realm, I might opt to preside over a Magic City to accumulate some Contribution Value, waiting to exchange for a chance to form an Infant, or shall we say, an Infant Opportunity.”
“After all, the speed of accumulating Contribution Value within the Immortal Gate certainly can’t outpace the outside. It’s safe here, indeed, but it’s too safe. There are more opportunities outside.”
At this moment, Luo Qianyu turned to Taoist Qingquan and said: “Junior Sister Qingquan….”
Taoist Qingquan interrupted: “No, no, no. Calling me Junior Sister would create distance. Just call me Qingquan. As for me, I’ll call you Qianyu from now on, or you can call me Daoist friend Qianyu.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Qianyu smiled, asking: “If we disciples from the inner mansion choose to preside over a Magic City outside, what kind of trouble would we encounter? What rewards are there for presiding over a Magic City?”
Taoist Qingquan replied: “There will definitely be trouble. Although the Immortal Mansion is one of the ten Immortal Gates in the Daqian cultivator realm, its territory is vast, and it harbors all sorts of people. There are no few names on the wanted list of the Immortal Gate.”
“External disciples will encounter many troubles outside, such as demonic cultivators, defiant cultivators, and so on. These encounters are mainly in resource spots and markets and are highly dangerous.”
“Even we, the inner disciples, may encounter some unruly individuals when we go out to preside over Magic Cities, markets or resource spots. Cases of demise are also common.”
“These people might be Loose Cultivators, or they might be from opposing Immortal Gates, Sects, Cultivator clans, etc. Hm, they could also be from the Demon Clan.”
“In conclusion, it is safe to stay within the Immortal Gate, but once you step outside the gate, do not let your guard down even if you are within a Magic City under the control of the Immortal Gate.”
“There have been occurrences where the Immortal Mansion was attacked and its Magic Cities were seized by people or the Demon Clan.”
Upon hearing this, Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, Taoist Shuhai, and others visually tensed up. Was it that serious?
It seemed the situation in the central region of the Daqian cultivation realm wasn’t as peaceful as they had imagined.
After the casual chat, everyone headed towards the Affairs Hall on the main peak.
The number of people in the inner mansion of the Immortal Mansion was not large, with only over a thousand on all eighteen peaks combined.
Hence, there were not many institutions within the gate. The Affairs Hall managed all matters of the inner and outer mansions, making it the largest institution in the Immortal Mansion.
