Green Lion Ridge Chen Clan

The Gold-Skirted Girl frowned, looked at Shen Long, and said politely, "Little sister Chen Yurao, could you spare the Five Flame Stone for me, fellow Daoist? The price is negotiable."

"I'm sorry, but I cannot comply."

Shen Long politely declined.

"I implore you, fellow Daoist, for the sake of our Chen family, to do me a favor. I will not let you suffer any loss."

Chen Yurao announced her home address.

"The Chen family? Which Chen family?"

Shen Long was completely bewildered. There were countless cultivation Lineage on the Green Lotus Continent, and he had no idea about Chen Yurao's background.

"You don't even recognize Fairy Chen? Fairy Chen comes from the Chen family of Green Lion Ridge, a family with a history of tens of thousands of years, and has more than a dozen Void Refining Cultivator."

"You'd better be sensible and give the Five Flame Stone to Fairy Chen."

"Yes! Why offend the Chen family for a single Five Flame Stone?"

The onlookers began to speak up, urging Shen Long to give up the Five Flame Stone.

"Rest assured, fellow Daoist, I can give you a satisfactory reward."

Chen Yurao said sincerely that she did not know Shen Long's background and dared not go too far.

Shen Long took out his Identity Token, a mocking expression on his face.

"Thousand Spirits Sect!"

When Chen Yurao saw the Identity Token that Shen Long took out, her expression changed drastically.

The Thousand Spirits Sect was at least a powerful force in its own right, far surpassing the Chen family.

The onlookers were filled with awe; they never expected Shen Long to have such a powerful background.

"I am truly sorry, I was blind to your greatness, please give me a chance to apologize."

Chen Yurao said politely, but her expression was somewhat nervous.

If the clan elders knew about what happened today, they would definitely not let her off the hook. Shen Long was wearing casual clothes, which is why Chen Yurao Shen Long did not recognize his identity.

If she had known that Shen Long was a disciple of the Thousand Spirits Sect, she wouldn't have dared to compete with Shen Long for the Five Flame Stone even if she had a hundred lives.

"I'm actually a bit thirsty. Would you like to find a place, Fairy Chen, so we can have a cup of tea and chat?"

Shen Long said.

Chen Yurao breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Our Chen family owns a Teahouse not far from here. Please follow me, fellow Daoist."

Chen Yurao left with Shen Long, and the onlookers dispersed.

Half an hour later, Chen Yurao and Shen Long arrived at a nine-story blue pavilion with the three large characters "Green Foothill Pavilion" written on the plaque. Many cultivators were going in and out.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, please come in."

Chen Yurao gestured for them to proceed and said politely.

Shen Long nodded and followed Chen Yurao inside. Chen Yurao asked for a private room.

As soon as they sat down, a Green-Shirted Attendant brought in Spirit Tea, placed the Spirit Tea and snacks down, and then took his leave.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, I was blind to your greatness and apologized with tea instead of wine."

Chen Yurao picked up her teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"Fairy Chen, you're too kind. It's nothing serious. I'd like to ask you something."

Shen Long changed the subject.

"What is it? Please speak freely, Fellow Daoist Shen."

Chen Yurao said politely, she was prepared to be ripped off.

Do you know the whereabouts of Fifth Rank Monster Ape with the bloodline of the Mountain Giant Ape? Its Essence Blood is also acceptable.

Shen Long said.

"The Essence Blood of Fifth Rank Monster Ape with the bloodline of the Mountain Giant Ape? I don't know much about it. Let me ask my clansman for you!"

Chen Yurao said, taking out a Golden Glowing Dharma Disk, casting a spell, and then making a series of gestures.

A short while later, Chen Yurao put away the Golden Dharma Disk and said with a troubled expression, "I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Shen, my cousin doesn't know either."

Shen Long smiled calmly and said, "It's nothing. If there's any news, please let me know, Fairy Chen."

"Must."

Chen Yurao agreed.

Shen Long talked about Pill Formula, which Chen Yurao found very interesting, and she exchanged ideas with Shen Long on alchemy techniques.

"I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Shen to be Alchemist as well. May I ask which senior Fellow Daoist Shen studied under?"

Chen Yurao asked curiously.

"I have no master in the Thousand Spirits Sect."

Shen Long told the truth: Master Ice Silkworm was still in the Lower Realm, so Shen Long's actions were not wrong.

Hearing this, Chen Yurao breathed a sigh of relief; it was better that Shen Long didn't have a master.

After a short while, Shen Long took out a Communication Disk that was flashing red light, and cast a spell. Li Tianxue's voice rang out. "Junior Brother Shen, we are staying at Thousand Spirits Garden. You can go back to Thousand Spirits Garden to rest when the time comes. By the way, tomorrow night at Xu hour, Fellow Daoist Li is hosting a gathering. There are quite a few Spirit Transformation cultivators attending. You should come along too! Get to know some more fellow Daoists."

"Okay, Senior Sister Li."

Shen Long agreed.

"That's settled then! You get back to work!"

Li Tianxue cut off contact.

Shen Long put away the Communication Disk and continued his exchange of alchemy techniques with Chen Yurao.

Half an hour later, Shen Long took his leave, and Chen Yurao personally saw him off from the Green Foothill Pavilion.

Shen Long strolled around the street, and after a short while, he stood at the entrance of a nine-story Cyan Pavilion. A strong aroma of wine wafted out from inside the pavilion.

"Dukang Pavilion!"

Shen Long gazed at the three large golden characters on the plaque and strode inside.

According to Chen Yue, Dukang Pavilion is the largest winery in Golden Cicada Marketplace, with a history of tens of thousands of years, and sells a variety of Spirit Wine.

Half an hour later, Shen Long came out with a smile on his face. He had bought a jar of Golden Dragon Brew, a fifth-grade Spirit Wine that could enhance Qi and Blood and strengthen the body.

He wanted to buy more, but there was only one jar left; the new stock hadn't arrived yet.

Half an hour later, Shen Long arrived at the entrance of a vast manor with the three large characters "Thousand Spirits Garden" written on the plaque.

"Junior Brother Shen, you just got back too?"

Zhao Tianhu's voice came from behind Shen Long.

Shen Long turned his head and saw Zhao Tianhu walking towards him.

"Senior Brother Zhao, isn't Senior Sister Lin with you?"

Shen Long asked casually.

"No, Senior Sister Lin had something to take care of and wasn't with me."

Zhao Tianhu chatted with Shen Long, and the two walked into Qianli Garden. After exchanging a few more words, they parted ways.

Shen Long arrived at a secluded Blue-tiled Courtyard. Inside the courtyard stood a three-story red pavilion with the three large characters "Begonia Pavilion" written on the plaque.

Shen Long pushed open the door and went inside, arriving at a Cultivation Room.

He took out an oval-shaped, green fruit with spiral-like patterns visible on its surface.

The Qingxuan Fruit has a growth cycle of two thousand years and can extend one's lifespan by two hundred years.

The cultivation resources in the Lingxu Realm are incredibly abundant. There are many kinds of spiritual fruits spirit medicine that can prolong life, but any spiritual fruit spirit medicine that can prolong life can only be consumed once; it will have no effect the second time.

Li Tianxue gave Shen Long a Life-Extending Fruit and a Yang-Increasing Fruit, which Shen Long has already eaten, extending his lifespan by a thousand years.

He bought four kinds of longevity fruits today; eating them all could extend his life by a thousand years.

In this way, he gained two thousand years of lifespan out of thin air, something unthinkable in the Lower Realm. No wonder cultivators in the Lower Realm would fight tooth and nail to ascend to the Lingxu Realm.

In the Lingxu Realm, Spirit Transformation cultivators can easily live to be five thousand years old by consuming large quantities of longevity-enhancing elixirs.

Shen Long quickly devoured the Qingxuan Fruit; the flesh was sweet and juicy, and he immediately began to circulate his internal energy to refine its medicinal power.
