Chapter 130 Merit
Chaoyang and Yang Jingshu agreed to meet at the market at the foot of Taicang Mountain.
After Xu Weichen knew about this, he also planned to go to the market, so he could take Chaoyang down the mountain with him.
They arrived at the market an hour in advance. Xu Weichen first took them to several restaurants where they often bought spiritual food and bought a lot of spiritual food for the two of them.
This made Chaoyang very happy, because his master had never bought him so many spiritual foods before!
After buying the spiritual food, Xu Weichen sent him to meet Yang Jingshu. Although with the Suzaku Seal in hand, almost no one in Suzaku Continent could harm Chaoyang, but the Suzaku Seal was too tempting for cultivators. Although Yang Jingshu looked good, not all members of the Yang family were like her. To be on the safe side, Xu Weichen naturally had to show up to shock them so that they would not have any thoughts that they shouldn't have.
When we arrived at the agreed-upon restaurant box, Yang Jingshu was already there, but surprisingly, she came alone.
After just a few days of not seeing her, her cultivation had actually improved to the Nascent Soul stage.
"Congratulations on the birth of your baby." Liu Yishu said with a smile.
"It was also luck. I had been stuck in the late Jindan stage for a long time and had never felt the opportunity to form a Nascent Soul. But after returning home from Suzaku King City, I suddenly had some realizations and finally reached the realm of Jindan Great Perfection. Only then could I survive the Nascent Soul Tribulation under the protection of my family." Yang Jingshu said happily.
Although she didn't care much about the advancement of her cultivation, Liu Yishu was right. Only by living longer could she have more time and energy to delve into the art of refining. And when she reached the Nascent Soul stage, she discovered that the improvement of her cultivation level also had many benefits for refining.
“You also have some credit for saving the 100,000 lives in the God-Slaying Formation. With so many merits, it will be natural for you to easily break through to the Nascent Soul Stage.” Liu Yishu said nonchalantly.
The speaker may seem unintentional, but the listener takes it very seriously.
The word "merit" has appeared frequently in the family in recent days. The reason is a rumor from somewhere unknown that merit is beneficial to the advancement of cultivation.
The elders of the clan were skeptical about this, but the temptation of improving their cultivation level was too great, so some people went to do good deeds and accumulate merits, but they didn't know if it was because the time was too short, or the accumulated merits were not enough, or maybe these rumors were just nonsense. In short, no effect was seen so far.
However, the few times she had dealt with Liu Yishu made Yang Jingshu clearly know that Liu Yishu was not a person who spoke without purpose. He must have his reasons for saying so. Maybe her promotion this time was related to the matter of the royal city.
In fact, she herself had some doubts after her promotion. After all, the realization came too suddenly, and the power of her Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation did not seem to be very strong. Even her father said that it was the smallest thunder tribulation he had ever seen in his life.
Although they didn't have a deep friendship, considering that they had been quite pleasant to deal with each other over the past few times, Yang Jingshu boldly asked, "Lord Xu - no, I should call you Dao Lord now, excuse me for asking, is the reason you were able to advance to the Refining Void realm also because of your merits?"
Although this question was very abrupt, it was too important for the Yang family and the entire cultivation world, so Yang Jingshu hesitated for a moment before asking.
Xu Weichen thought about it and realized that the reason why he was able to successfully advance to the Void Refinement Stage was ultimately due to Xiaoshu's help. Xiaoshu gave him the Water Spirit Pearl to help him absorb the spiritual energy of the spirit core and also refined a lightning-inducing artifact for him. Without Xiaoshu, he would never have been able to achieve his current level of cultivation.
Maybe it was indeed because of his good deeds, but the most important thing was everything Xiaoshu did for him.
But since Xiaoshu said so, he naturally had to cooperate. Besides, it was enough for him to know how good Xiaoshu was to him, and he didn't need to tell others.
Thinking of this, he nodded.
"My master was able to advance to the realm of refining emptiness not only by relying on the merits of the 100,000 lives in the royal city, but also thanks to his natural water spiritual roots. Water is the source of life and benefits all things. Wherever he practices, all plants and animals within a hundred miles will benefit. These are all his merits." Liu Yishu added with a smile.
Yang Jingshu was silent for a while, digesting the meaning of Liu Yishu's words, and then she bowed to them solemnly, "Thank you for telling me."
Xu Weichen and Liu Yishu accepted her gift calmly.
"I promised you before that I would lend it to you for a few days after I retrieved the Vermillion Bird Seal. To be honest, the Vermillion Bird Seal belongs to my senior brother, so this agreement will be fulfilled by my senior brother and you." Liu Yishu pointed at Chaoyang and said to Yang Jingshu.
Although Yang Jingshu had speculated about this when Chaoyang contacted her, she was still shocked when Liu Yishu said it directly.
Although the Vermillion Bird Seal was refined by the Red Flame Ancestor, the reason why the Vermillion Bird Seal can become a divine weapon is because the soul of the Vermillion Bird is sealed within it. Therefore, the Vermillion Bird Seal does not belong to the Red Flame Ancestor, but only to the Vermillion Bird.
When Liu Yishu said this, the only thing missing was telling her clearly that Chaoyang was Suzaku.
It has long been rumored among all things that Xu Weichen's eldest disciple is the one with a pure heart and a son of destiny. Yang Jingshu didn't quite believe it before, because she felt that Xu Daojun's young disciple was the truly unfathomable. Unexpectedly, the rumor turned out to be true. Not only was the young disciple mysterious, but the identity of the eldest disciple was even more noble and unparalleled.
Yang Jingshu bowed deeply to Chaoyang again.
"Don't worry, I came to the appointment alone this time, and I haven't told anyone in my clan about my appointment with you, and I won't tell anyone in the future!" Yang Jingshu said respectfully.
"I'm just very curious about the artifact, so I want to take a look at it. I have absolutely no other intentions!" she added.
In fact, after knowing that Chaoyang was Suzaku, the first thought that came to Yang Jingshu's mind was that she should leave immediately and not offend Suzaku. However, this opportunity was too rare. She couldn't imagine that apart from this time, she would have any other chance to get close to the artifact in the future.
"It's okay. Since Master believes in you, I believe in you too." Chaoyang calmly took out the Vermillion Bird Seal and presented it to Yang Jingshu.
The fiery red seal instantly occupied Yang Jingshu's mind. She stared at it intently and no longer cared about anything else.
"Xiaoshu and I are leaving first. Be careful." Xu Weichen reminded Chaoyang and left with Liu Yishu.
This time at the market, in addition to sending Chaoyang to see Yang Jingshu, Xu Weichen also planned to stroll around the market. After all, his and Xiaoshu's contract-making ceremony would be in a month, so he had to buy some festive decorations and objects to decorate the fenced courtyard.
In the inner demon's illusion, on the day they made the contract, the small fenced courtyard decorated with lights and full of joy looked very nice, and Xu Weichen planned to arrange it that way.
