Chapter 498: 451: Master Zi Shan_2
“It seems that Fellow Daoist has seized another opportunity this time. Such fortune truly makes this humble girl envious.”
Hearing that He Song had been delayed by trivial matters, Master Luo Jing sighed softly. Her eyes, when looking at He Song, became even more brilliant.
She was well aware that in his travels over the years, He Song had encountered many opportunities.
The so-called trivial matters he mentioned now might actually involve new opportunities.
If He Song could stumble upon opportunities even as he walked, with such good fortune, it might be almost certain he would step into the Golden Elixir Realm in the future.
If that were truly the case… Master Luo Jing’s gaze towards He Song suddenly carried a trace of a different light.
She had known long ago that He Song’s probability of breaking through to the Golden Elixir Realm was much higher than that of other Foundation Establishment Masters.
After all, He Song had great personal luck and a Golden Elixir realm friend.
With these two factors combined, He Song naturally had a much higher chance of breaking through to the Golden Elixir Realm than others.
And that was the reason she had always held him in high regard.
It was also the reason her attitude towards him hadn’t changed much even after she had broken through to the Golden Elixir Realm herself.
As for this.
After hearing her words, He Song’s mind immediately flashed with the memory of the ambush he encountered outside Green Mountain Immortal City.
As well as the scene when he later saw the hidden Golden Elixir Great Array.
Such an opportunity, if revealed, might make even a Golden Elixir Master envious.
Naturally, He Song would not divulge this matter.
Thus, in the face of Master Luo Jing’s astonished gaze, He Song could only respond with a faint smile. Instead of denying it, he merely changed the subject.
Since Master Luo Jing had already guessed as much, and he had indeed encountered an opportunity on the way here,
He might as well not deny it.
After all, she did not know the size of the opportunity he had found.
If she really pressed him for an answer, he could just claim it was a minor opportunity, which wouldn’t do him any harm.
However, He Song’s non-denial only made Master Luo Jing’s eyes light up.
Originally, she had just uttered that casually, thinking that He Song might have really encountered some opportunity that delayed his journey.
But when He Song deflected the question like that, it only confirmed her suspicions that he had indeed found an opportunity.
Perhaps.
He Song had truly encountered an opportunity on his way here.
Although she didn’t know whether it was a big or small opportunity, his fortune of encountering opportunities just by walking around was enough to make her heart tremble slightly.
So, she grew even more confident in He Song’s chances of stepping into the Golden Elixir Realm in the future.
Therefore, after another round of polite conversation between the three,
Master Luo Jing quickly spoke again.
“During this Golden Elixir Gathering, feel free to look around. The Cloud State Mansion is a safe place, with Golden Elixir Masters guarding it. You don’t need to worry about your security, Fellow Daoist.”
“If you do run into any danger, just contact me.”
“Nowadays, there are numerous Foundation Establishment Masters within Cloud State Mansion. My Treasure Pavilion has already set up several residences exclusively for Foundation Establishment Masters half a month ago.”
“Next to the Treasure Pavilion, there’s even a trading venue exclusively for Foundation Establishment Masters, with countless precious items.”
“When the Golden Elixir Gathering begins, there will be trading venues for Golden Elixir Masters as well, where all the items will be extremely valuable.”
“With your cultivation level, Fellow Daoist, you’re allowed to enter the trading venue for Foundation Establishment Masters at will.”
“However, if you wish to visit the trading venue for Golden Elixir Masters, you’ll need to have this token in your possession.”
“With this token, even if your cultivation is only at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection stage, you can still enter.”
“Of course, whether you’ll be able to purchase or exchange anything valuable inside will depend on your abilities.”
“I hope that you return with much success, Fellow Daoist.”
Master Luo Jing handed He Song a token.
It was an exquisite token with the word “Luo Jing” engraved on the front and “Treasure Pavilion” on the back.
He Song could even sense a Golden Elixir Realm aura from the token itself.
The person exuding this aura was none other than Master Luo Jing.
To others, having this token signified that He Song had the support of Master Luo Jing.
He was backed by a Golden Elixir Master.
With this token, He Song could move unhindered within the Treasure Pavilion, and he could even enter the trading area for Golden Elixir Masters that would open later.
One could say that the token Luo Jing gave to He Song was enough to elevate his status and rank among cultivators in Cloud State Mansion.
Having a Golden Elixir Master supporting He Song meant other Golden Elixir Masters wanting to take action against him would have to think twice.
After all, Master Luo Jing was from the Treasure Pavilion, and this Golden Elixir event was happening because of her.
Targeting someone under her protection would likely not end well.
Storing Master Luo Jing’s token in his storage bag, He Song expressed his gratitude to her.
With this token on him,
He Song would definitely have unhindered access within Cloud State Mansion.
However, just as he was expressing his gratitude,
A powerful Golden Elixir aura appeared silently outside Cloud State Mansion.
The intense spiritual pressure coming from afar caused the bustling Cloud State Mansion to quiet down significantly at this moment.
Fortunately, the Golden Elixir Master from afar knew their proprieties and did not unleash their spiritual pressure excessively, oppressing the people within Cloud State Mansion.
Their powerful spiritual pressure merely swept over and did not cause much impact in Cloud State Mansion.
But, it was during this brief sweep that everyone in Cloud State Mansion sensed the arrival of this Golden Elixir Master.
In this instant,
A thought flashed through the minds of countless people.
The first Golden Elixir Master who came from afar to attend this Golden Elixir event had arrived!
Inside the Treasure Pavilion,
Master Luo Jing, upon noticing a Golden Elixir Master arriving from afar, gave He Song an apologetic smile.
“Fellow Daoist, please feel free to explore. I need to oversee the Golden Elixir event, so I’ll excuse myself first.”
Facing the visiting Golden Elixir Master, as the protagonist of this Golden Elixir event, Master Luo Jing naturally had to greet them personally.
He Song understood this.
As he watched Master Luo Jing and Master Yun Jing head towards the outer region of Cloud State Mansion,
He Song quickly left the Treasure Pavilion and headed to the residence designated for Foundation Establishment Masters, as Master Luo Jing had mentioned earlier.
Above the sky,
While Master Luo Jing took her junior sister, Master Yun Jing, to welcome the newcomer,
A hearty laughter echoed in the air.
Following the laughter, a figure draped in a purple robe appeared before the two masters in the blink of an eye.
This person was Master Luo Jing’s master, the Chief Master of the Treasure Pavilion in Cloud State Mansion, Master Zi Shan.
He Song had crossed paths with Master Zi Shan once before.
It happened in Eight-vein Immortal City.
Back then, He Song had killed the Sub-Pavilion Master of the Eight-vein Immortal City and escaped.
Master Zi Shan was the Golden Elixir Master who subsequently went to Eight-vein Immortal City to clean up the mess.
However, at that time, He Song’s cultivation level was still shallow, and they had never met. He Song didn’t know that Master Zi Shan was Master Luo Jing’s master either.
He only learned about it later when Master Luo Jing talked to him about the incident.
Back then, after discussing the incident with He Song, Master Luo Jing introduced her master, Master Zi Shan, who was now standing in front of them.
Master Zi Shan was tall and thin, with a handsome appearance and usually dressed in a purple robe.
With just a glance at his purple robe, He Song knew his identity.
Following Master Zi Shan’s hearty laughter,
The Golden Elixir Master from afar, previously sensed but unseen, appeared before everyone’s eyes at this moment.
Outside Cloud State Mansion, a massive flying boat was as fast as lightning, arriving in front of Master Zi Shan in just a short instant.
