Clan Members Help Pengqiu Seek the Dao

After a few moments of stunned silence, Manager Yan Qing finally came to his senses, and his face immediately broke into a wide smile.

In his heart, he regarded Ling Pengyun as a lucky star.

This is because, as the manager of the Wood Origin Gathering Treasure Pavilion, he receives a 3% commission every time a spiritual item is sold.

Of the 236,000 Spirit Stone that Ling Pengyun spent this time, he will receive a total of 7,080 Spirit Stone.

This amount of Spirit Stone was quite a lot for him, enough to equal his commission for managing the shop for several years.

"Of course it's enough, of course it's enough. One-fifth of the large First Rank Middle Grade -Water-Bearing Iron Mine our sect occupies in the Wrathful Whale Sea Region has been developed, and hundreds of thousands of catties of water-rich iron have flowed into our sect."

"This batch of Water Spirit Iron is far too large; our sect will find it difficult to process this amount of ore in a short period of time."

"In addition, the large First Rank Middle Grade- Water-Bearing Iron Mine in Wrathful Whale Marketplace is still under attack by sea Demon Beast."

"To guard that place, our sect set up a Fourth Rank formation there. The Spiritual Qi in that mine is only enough to barely keep that Fourth Rank formation running."

"Whenever we are attacked by a large number of sea Demon Race, we need a lot of Spirit Stone to maintain that Fourth Rank formation."

"This also means that our sect urgently needs a large number of Spirit Stone as war preparation materials."

"Given these circumstances, our sect has also directly taken out a considerable amount of First Rank Middle Grade Water Gathering Spirit Iron to sell."

"The Gathering Treasure Pavilion that I manage is located in Wood Origin Marketplace, which is on Wood Origin Island, the same island as my sect's base in the Wood Origin Mountain Range. Therefore, my store has a full 100,000 catties of Water Gathering Spirit Iron stored in it all year round."

"As I said before, as long as you have Spirit Stone, Water Gathering Spirit Iron."

"Please wait a moment, senior. I will go and get the first -First Rank Middle Grade- Water Gathering Spirit Iron you requested."

Manager Yan Qing said a few words with a smile and then left the quiet room.

When he returned, he was holding two Storage Spirit Bead String in his hand.

"Senior, according to our original agreement, if you purchase more than 10,000 catties of spirit iron, it will be sold at four Spirit Stone per catty. I can also give you a 5% discount."

"Your 230,000 spirit stones can buy 61,000 jin of first-grade mid-level water-containing spirit iron."

"This batch of water-containing iron, along with the six Second Rank Low Grade Longevity Shell you requested, are all included. Senior, please check the quantities."

After handing the Storage Bag and spirit bead string to Ling Pengyun, the steward Yan Qing explained in detail.

Ling Pengyun channeled his Divine Sense into the Storage Spirit Bead String string, which had no Divine Sense imprint on it, and checked it. He found that the number was correct and was delighted.

"After deducting the 11,000 catties of Water Spirit Iron that were allocated to the Lineage, I still have 50,000 catties of Water Spirit Iron left."

"With the help of this Water Spirit Iron, my Azure Ocean Azure Sea Heavy Yuan Treasure Pearl, which is at the Magic Treasure Prototype, will be one step closer to the level of Third Rank Low Grade Law Treasure."

"At that time, the upcoming trip to the White Cloud Mountain Range will be more secure."

After regaining his senses, Ling Pengyun looked at Yan Qing with a serious expression.

"Young friend Yan, the spiritual items we are trading today are of considerable value. I hope you will not spread this matter to others."

Yan Qing was aware of Ling Pengyun's concerns, and he immediately responded.

"Senior, please rest assured. My Wood Origin Immortal Sect relies on integrity in doing business. No matter what customers buy in our sect's shop, we disciples will never spread the word. I made Heavenly Dao Oath when I was assigned to this shop by the sect."

"Six months ago, news of your purchase of spirit iron from my shop was leaked. It was because the reception maids arranged by my sect Non-Self sect. From now on, whenever you come to my shop, I will serve you."

"I will never reveal any information about your purchase of any spiritual items."

After saying this, he also made Heavenly Dao Oath based on his cultivation level to show his loyalty.

Ling Pengyun was very satisfied with what he saw.

He dared to bring such a large sum of Spirit Stone to the Wood Origin Gathering Treasure Pavilion to buy spirit iron precisely because he valued the integrity of the shops under the Wood Origin Immortal Sect.

"That's good. As long as you can keep the news from leaking out, I will definitely seek you out first if I need to buy spiritual items," Ling Pengyun said.

Yan Qing's face lit up with even more joy; in his eyes, he already regarded Ling Pengyun as a wealthy man.

"This is going to be a windfall!"

Ling Pengyun then left the store.

Yan Qing, with a grin on his face, saw Ling Pengyun off from the Gathering Treasure Pavilion.

Afterwards, Yan Qing surveyed the store and quietly went up to the third floor of the Gathering Treasure Pavilion.

This third floor is where Yan Qing lives.

As soon as he entered the place, a very young, beautiful female cultivator with a hot figure, wearing a white transparent gauze dress and slightly flushed cheeks ran up to Yan Qing and coaxed him.

"Husband, who was that person who came into the shop just now? Why did you have to go and greet them personally?"

This beautiful female cultivator was none other than "Xiao Ya," who had entertained Ling Pengyun at the Gathering Treasure Pavilion to purchase Water Spirit Iron six months prior.

After Xiao Ya accidentally revealed to her close friend "Qing Mei" that Ling Pengyun had purchased a large amount of Water Spirit Iron, Ling Pengyun was intercepted and almost lost the reputation of the Wood Origin Gathering Treasure Pavilion.

Xiao Ya then became Yan Qing's possession and was kept by Yan Qing on the third floor of the Gathering Treasure Pavilion.

Yan Qing also quite liked Xiao Ya Xiao Ya, who was very beautiful.

Whenever he had nothing to do, he would come to the third floor of the Gathering Treasure Pavilion to find Xiao Ya and have fun, living like a living god.

"This matter cannot be discussed. Let's continue what we were doing!" Yan Qing smiled mysteriously, then embraced the budding figure in front of him and entered a room equipped with a soundproof array.

Three months later.

Carrying over 200,000 Spirit Stone and precious spiritual items, Ling Pengyun was terrified all the way back to Huai River County in Jing Province, within the Yan Kingdom territory of the Northern Wilderness Cultivation World.

After entering Huai River County, Ling Pengyun finally felt relieved.

He thought to himself.

"Jia Wood Jiamu and Yan Qing are indeed trustworthy people, and we can make good friends with them."

The fact that he did not encounter any ambushes along the way is the best proof of this.

If Jia Mu Zhenren and Yan Qing were not trustworthy, it would have been impossible for Ling Pengyun to return to Huai River County safely with so many spiritual items.

Following that, Ling Pengyun once again commanded his Wind Shadow Peng and headed towards the Clan Mountain.

Soon after, Ling Pengyun returned to Lingxiao Mountain.

The Lingxiao Mountain.

Ling Penglin, Ling Pengshan, and Ling Pengqiu, all members of the Lineage, gathered here.

"Eighth Brother, how was the trip to the Boundless Sea Region?" Ling Pengshan, the master of the house, asked.

Upon hearing this, Ling Penglin and Ling Pengqiu both turned their attention to Ling Pengyun.

"It's alright." Ling Pengyun nodded and said this, then took out a string of Storage Spirit Bead String from his pocket and handed it to Ling Pengshan, the master of the family.

Then, he took out nine Longevity Shell he had purchased during his trip to the Boundless Sea Region from his Storage Bag at his waist and asked the three people in front of him.

"The Storage Spirit Bead String contains 11,000 catties of First Rank Middle Grade water- Water Gathering Spirit Iron. As for the nine Longevity Shell, they are of different grades: six are Second Rank Low Grade Longevity Shell and three are second- Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell."

"A single Second Rank Low Grade Longevity Shell can only increase lifespan by three years, Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell can increase lifespan by nine years."

"However, whether it is Second Rank Low Grade Longevity Shell or a second-grade high-level Longevity Shell, they are both Longevity Shell, and a cultivator can only consume three in his lifetime."

"In my opinion, it's best if one person takes all three Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell."

"There are three of you. How do you plan to divide these nine Longevity Shell?"

When Ling Penglin, Ling Pengshan, and Ling Pengqiu heard that the three Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell that Ling Pengyun had obtained this time could each increase lifespan by nine years, their eyes lit up.

With their lifespans nearing their end, it's naturally a good thing to have such a high-level lifespan-enhancing spiritual object to help them.

In an instant, the three men's expressions changed drastically, and their brows furrowed.

The problem is that there are too few Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell to go around.

Furthermore, those three Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell were indeed used by the same person to maximize their effects.

After a short while, Ling Pengshan, the master of the house, took a deep breath and spoke first.

"Eighth Brother, my cultivation is relatively weak. Even with the help of those three second-tier Longevity Shell, there is not much Dao Path enlightenment for me."

"I'll take three Second Rank Low Grade Longevity Shell."

Ling Penglin, who was in a similar situation to him, was also moved and spoke up as well.

"Eighth Brother, like my cousin Peng Shan, I only need three Second Rank Low Grade Longevity Shell."

"As for those three Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell, in my opinion, they should be given to my cousin Peng Qiu."

Ling Pengqiu, who had not spoken, trembled upon hearing this.

By doing this, Ling Penglin and Ling Pengshan are essentially giving him the chance to live longer.

Ling Pengqiu was the youngest of the three, and he could not bear the kindness shown to him by Ling Penglin and Ling Pengshan.

He immediately refused.

"Sister Peng Lin, Brother Peng Shan, I am the youngest in the family, and I cannot accept these three Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell. In my opinion, it would be better if each of you received one Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell."

Ling Penglin, the eldest of the three, said decisively, "That's not right. If you had three Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell to help you, you could add twenty-seven years to your lifespan. With that, plus the ten or so years you still have left, you would have thirty or forty years to live."

"With your talent, it is entirely possible for you to raise your cultivation to the Foundation Establishment Completion within the next thirty or forty years. At that time, you will also have a chance to break through to the Golden Core."

"If you have failed me and Peng Shan, I hope that you will carry our aspirations for the Dao Path and, after Peng Shan have broken through to the Foundation Establishment Completion, try to reach the Golden Core stage no matter what."

Ling Pengshan also spoke up, "I agree with Clan Sister Peng Lin's suggestion."

Seeing that Ling Penglin and Ling Pengshan were determined to do so, Ling Pengqiu felt no joy at all.

Instead, it added a touch of sadness.

"Sister Peng Lin, Brother Peng Shan, please accept my bow!"

"I will do whatever you two wish for."

Ling Pengqiu was filled with gratitude and bowed to Ling Penglin and Ling Pengshan to express his thanks.

Seeing Ling Pengqiu's expression, Ling Penglin and Ling Pengshan felt that they had not done anything wrong in helping Ling Pengqiu extend his lifespan.

"Alright, now that Peng Shan and Peng Lin have made their decision, Peng Qiu, you don't need to worry anymore. Just accept those three Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell. Don't forget the wishes of Peng Shan and Peng Lin."

Seeing everyone's actions, Ling Pengyun, who was standing to the side, was quite satisfied and spoke up.

Then, Ling Pengyun took out ten bottles of Wood Origin Spirit Water and three Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell from his Storage Bag and handed them to Ling Pengqiu.

The other six Second Rank Low Grade Longevity Shell were handed to Ling Penglin and Ling Pengshan respectively.

"Peng Qiu, with the help of those three Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell, given your cultivation and aptitude, you do have a very high chance of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Completion in this lifetime."

"These are ten bottles of Second Rank Low Grade Wood Origin Spirit Water, a type of cultivation water that can increase cultivation level."

"Keep these ten bottles of spiritual water; it will help you break through to the Foundation Establishment Completion more quickly."

After handling this matter, Ling Pengyun inquired about the Lineage's recent situation and learned that there had been no major changes. Ling Pengyun then left the Clan Mountain and rode the Wind Shadow Peng towards Falling Dusk Mountain.

After Ling Pengyun left, Ling Penglin and the other two returned to their respective Mountain Top Cave Residence.

Inside the cave abode in autumn.

Ling Pengqiu stared blankly at the three Second Rank High Grade Longevity Shell and ten bottles of Second Rank Low Grade Wood Origin Spirit Water in his hand for a long while.

After standing there in a daze for a while, Ling Pengqiu finally came to his senses.

Then, a resolute look appeared in his eyes.

"I am determined to reach the Consummation Realm Foundation Establishment!"

"I will break through to the Golden Core Realm, even if it costs me my life."

Thank you to the Clear-Minded Realm for the 100-point reward.
