"Wait a minute."
Chen Shuangbai stopped the messenger, took out a small jade bottle, and handed it over, saying, "This is a pill refined by my senior brother. It's just a small token of my appreciation. Thank you for your hard work, junior brother."
The messenger looked around, said sorry, but still put away the jade bottle. He probed inside with his spiritual sense and saw several azure pills, each perfectly round and full of spiritual energy.
Azure Flower Pill?!
The envoy's smile immediately became even more sincere. "Thank you so much for your generous gift, Senior Brother!"
"Senior brother, if you need any errands or inquiries in the future, please don't hesitate to ask! My name is Zhou Ming, and I work in the External Affairs Division of the Expenditure Hall Revenue."
Chen Shuangbai nodded and noted it down, saying, "I'm afraid I'll be troubling Junior Brother Zhou quite a bit in the future. Oh, by the way, I have a good friend named Lu Zhiyuan who also Expenditure Hall. We should try to get closer to each other in the future."
"That's great! Senior Brother Chen, you can come over when you have time."
After seeing Zhou Ming off, Chen Shuangbai returned to the quiet room, placed a pile of things on the table, carefully checked them, and sighed with emotion.
The treatment of inner disciple is indeed far superior to that of outer disciples.
The Jade Spring Sect excels at alchemy and has gradually eroded the Spirit-Seeking Sect's market share in the Jing Kingdom and many surrounding countries over the years. Therefore, the sect is not lacking in Spirit Stone.
The annual stipend of Spirit Stone and pills alone is enough to make many outer disciples envious.
"Now that we have the resources, we need to focus on our cultivation and improve our strength as much as possible."
Chen Shuangbai has a relatively clear plan for his cultivation.
Besides her daily practice, Chen Shuangbai had other plans.
First, you need to refine the [ Mystic Water Wave-Stilling Mirror ], then put it and the [ Clear Waves Reflecting Moon Flag ] into your Qi Sea, nurture them with your own Law Power, and imprint them with your own unique Law Power mark.
Then comes the cultivation of spiritual awareness.
The spiritual awareness cultivated by the " Moonlight Spirit-Nourishing Instruction " far surpasses that of his peers, Chen Shuangbai would never neglect this aspect.
"However, the most urgent matter is to first go and see the cave abode that the sect has given me."
Deer Deep Waters Peak is beautiful, with stunning scenery, waterfalls, and various rare and precious flowers and herbs blooming in the mountains; it is truly a sacred peak.
However, this is, after all, Master Yi Chongyue's Daoist temple, and it is very taboo to be disturbed when cultivating from the Foundation Establishment stage.
Chen Shuangbai also wanted some space of his own, so he decided to cultivate in the cave abode bestowed by the sect on weekdays, and return to Deer Deep Waters Peak to consult his teacher Yi Chongyue, when necessary.
Besides, he also has two spirit pets that need a place to be housed.
Chen Shuangbai released the Flowing Cloud Flying Pouch, riding this soft, white cloud-shaped flying magic Law Artifact, drawing a long white line in the sky.
After asking several fellow disciples along the way, I finally found the location of Verdant Hills Stream.
Verdant Hills Stream is located in a secluded valley on the east side of Heavenly Spring Peak. The stream water falls from a height, forming several silvery waterfalls, with water vapor and a Spiritual Qi atmosphere.
The valley is filled with lush bamboo groves, dotted with Rare Flowers and Exotic Herbs. Occasionally, deer and cranes stroll leisurely by, creating a tranquil and elegant environment that far surpasses Lesser Yang Peak.
This place occupies a large area, and there are many other cave abode around it, but none of them are as secluded as this one, which shows the sect's favor towards it.
The entrance to the cave abode was hidden behind a dense patch of emerald bamboo. As Chen Shuangbai approached, the cave abode's token hanging at his waist sensed his presence, and the array surrounding the cave abode slowly opened, as if welcoming him, the cave abode's master.
Stepping inside, the spiritual energy within the array was even more abundant than outside.
Perhaps considering that Chen Shuangbai's cave abode dwelling when he was in the outer sect was built into the mountain, in addition to the outer hut, there is another cave abode hidden behind the waterfall.
It has living rooms, meditation rooms, alchemy rooms, and other structures, and outside there are waterfalls, springs, green bamboos, and clouds, making it a truly beautiful place.
Chen Shuangbai took out the buzzing beast ring, released the restriction, and released the Feiguang and Gray Ball that had been held back for several days.
Sure enough, both of them really liked their new environment; one was flying around, and the other was playing in the water, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
Chen Shuangbai took out some Spirit Feeding Pills, mixed them with the spiritual liquid made from Moon Soul True Water, and fed them to them.
The spiritual liquid made from the Spirit-Feeding Pill and the Moon Soul True Water is of great help to the enlightenment of demons, which is why these two little guys are so agile.
Chen Shuangbai then instructed, " Feiguang, your confinement hasn't been completely lifted yet, so you can't fly too far, understand?"
Feiguang, who had been so proud and arrogant, immediately deflated upon hearing these words.
As for the Gray Ball... Chen Shuangbai doesn't need to worry about that. This little Mushroom Demon prefers quiet to movement. After eating and drinking its fill, it will find a place to lie down and sleep. It's very well-behaved.
This is what Chen Shuangbai trusts the most.
After settling the spirit pet, Chen Shuangbai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Shuangbai walked to the waterfall and took out the [ Life-Accepting Gourd ], [ Mystic Water Wave-Stilling Mirror ], and [ Clear Waves Reflecting Moon Flag ]. He then activated them, drawing upon the spiritual energy of the water vapor in the area to slowly refine and nurture them, enhancing their power.
Perhaps he made a bit too much noise here, or perhaps Feiguang's magnificent physique was truly eye-catching, because soon sounds came from outside.
"May I ask, which fellow disciple has taken up residence in this cave abode?"
Chen Shuangbai followed the sound out of the cave abode, lifted the restrictions, and saw three fellow disciples standing outside the ravine watching him.
" Senior Brother Ding?"
The newcomers were two men and one woman, all of whom were handsome and beautiful.
One of them was Ding Chengyu, Chen Shuangbai's Senior Brother Ding, whom he had met before and even received assistance from.
Upon seeing Chen Shuangbai, Ding Chengyu's eyes lit up, and he laughed, "What a coincidence! I didn't expect it was Junior Brother Chen who obtained this Verdant Hills Stream!"
A moment later.
A gentle breeze was blowing in front of the thatched cottage. The four men sat down and introduced themselves to each other.
Ding Chengyu Chen Shuangbai, "This is Senior Sister Fan Caiwei, and this is Senior Brother Qin Shu. They are both disciples of Heavenly Spring Peak, just like you, Junior Brother Chen."
Chen Shuangbai greeted them one by one, and the two returned the greeting.
"It should have been me, the junior brother, visiting the senior brothers and sisters on the peak, but my cave abode, though barely tidy, is filthy and messy, making a fool of myself in front of them."
Qin Shu looked handsome, but his words carried a bold air. He laughed and said, "Simple... Just send a letter to the Expenditure Hall, and they will arrange servants for you. But you have to choose carefully, since they are to manage our cave abode; they can't be rebellious."
Chen Shuangbai agreed.
This Verdant Hills Stream covers a large area and needs someone to manage it for me, not to mention that I also want to cultivate some herbs and flowers here to study perfumery.
After some conversation, the group got to know each other, and they were the first group of fellow disciples that Chen Shuangbai made after being promoted to the inner sect.
Chen Shuangbai also learned about the duties of the six inner peaks, as well as the six Foundation Establishment who served as Peak Master.
