Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Exchanging Tokens, Deepening Bonds

“`

After Miss Shi also returned from the Pavilion, the Heavenly Craft Workshop’s Meng Chong began its journey home.

In the cabin, Luo Yan was sitting on his bed, concentrating on comprehending the Postnatal Five Elements Ultimate Extermination Divine Light.

According to the annotations in his memory, he first needed to refine his True Qi into Yuan Magnetic Gang Qi, then he had to find the Five Elements True Vein, and lastly, infuse it into the Yuan Magnetic Gang Qi, transforming it into Divine Light.

The Five Elements True Veins of the Postnatal world are to be sought from “Wood that is close to death but not dead,” “Fire that seems extinct but is hard to extinguish,” “Earth that is lowly and untainted,” “Metal that appears like jade but isn’t,” and “Water that is rootless and unceasing.”

All five types are rare natural treasures seldom encountered, and they represent the true threshold in cultivating the Postnatal Five Elements Ultimate Extermination Divine Light.

Fortunately, the Pavilion had thoughtfully found all five types of these treasures and had extracted the corresponding Five Elements True Veins, which were the red, blue, yellow, black, and white spots of light that had entered Luo Yan’s Sea of Consciousness at that time.

Next, all Luo Yan needed to do was slowly cultivate the Yuan Magnetic Gang Qi and then refine these “Postnatal Five Elements True Veins” into it.

As he was cultivating, Miss Shi rushed to the door, knocked a few times vigorously, and then pushed the door open and came in.

“Little junior brother!” She pounced beside Luo Yan’s bed, excitedly said, “Guess what I got from the Pavilion?”

“It must be something incredibly powerful,” Luo Yan said helplessly.

Forgetting to lock the door was really a miscalculation.

“Humph,” Shi Liuli said proudly, “The ‘Five Latitudes Heavenly Secret Record,’ ever heard of it?”

“Huh?”

The perfectly confused expression on Luo Yan’s face made Miss Shi even more satisfied.

Thus, she began to explain exuberantly:

“The so-called ‘Five Latitudes’ refer to Tai Bai, Sui Xing, Chen Xing, Ying Huo, and Zhen Xing, the collective name for these five stars.”

“The ‘Five Latitudes Heavenly Secret Record’ uses the power of these five stars to perform a profound Qi Refining Technique of breathing and cultivation.”

“Besides Qi refinement, it also contains many incredibly powerful derivative Daoist Magic techniques, which all require the summoning of the Five Latitudes to use.”

“I see,” Luo Yan understood her point and nodded.

To assess the quality of a Qi Refining Technique, there are mainly two criteria:

One is the efficiency and purity of the refined True Qi. The higher the efficiency and purity, the higher the grade rank of the Elixir formed eventually.

The other is whether the Qi Refining Technique comes with its own derivative Daoist Magic.

Only Qi Refining Techniques that are in deep accordance with the Dao can naturally produce various profound magical abilities during breathing exercises and cultivation level enhancement, saving the effort of cultivating additional Daoist Magic separately.

“Father said that starting from today, I no longer have to cultivate with you guys!” Shi Liuli boasted, “Because the efficiency of my ‘Five Latitudes Heavenly Secret Record’ is much higher than our Heavenly Craft Workshop’s Three Flowers Gathering Spirit Technique.”

Luo Yan was speechless in his heart, but he smiled and said:

“Then congratulations to senior sister.”

Wasn’t Miss Shi too naive about the world? Didn’t she know that such blatant bragging was the easiest way to bring trouble to her parents and family?

It was only because she was spoiled by everyone in the Heavenly Craft Workshop that she could speak so recklessly. If she said these things outside, inducing envy and covetousness in others, it could even unintentionally bring disaster upon her!

Thinking this, Luo Yan cautiously asked:

“Senior sister, didn’t father instruct you not to talk about this with others?”

“Of course he did,” Shi Liuli gave him a dismissive glance, “It’s common sense that wealth should not be flaunted and that techniques should not be leaked, isn’t it?”

“Then why are you…”

“You are not ‘others,’ are you?” Miss Shi interrupted him, “If it wasn’t for the fact that cultivating the ‘Five Latitudes Heavenly Secret Record’ required ‘Five Latitudes Mystery Elixirs’ and the Pavilion only provided enough pills for one person to cultivate… I would have passed this secret record to you for us to cultivate together!”

“`

“Ah, Senior Sister, there’s no need for this,” Luo Yan immediately said with righteous indignation, “I’m not the kind of person who would covet my Senior Sister’s possessions!”

“Did I say you were?” Shi Liuli blinked and naturally responded, “If it could be passed on to you, as your Senior Sister, of course, I wouldn’t hide or hoard it.”

“Senior Sister…” Luo Yan then gave a bitter smile.

His previous statement actually had two layers of meaning:

The first was that I’m not interested in your “Five Latitudes Heavenly Secret Record,” so I won’t scheme for your “Five Latitudes Mystical Elixir.”

The second was that you shouldn’t speak of this outside; what if a villain heard it and came to steal this bottle of elixir?

As a result, Miss Shi, staying in the basement, didn’t understand even the first layer of the meaning, causing Luo Yan to feel the urge to go crazy.

[Falsehood persona, Synchronization Value +1.]

The reminder from the Kunlun Mirror echoed in his mind, leaving Luo Yan completely numb. He didn’t bother pondering why the Synchronization Value had increased and simply moved on from the matter. He took out the Heaven-flipping Seal from within his garments and said:

“Senior Sister lent this treasure, which was a great help to me at the Pavilion. It’s time for it to return to its original owner.”

“The Heaven-flipping Seal is very useful, isn’t it?” Shi Liuli said with a giggling smile, yet she did not reach out to take it.

“Indeed,” Luo Yan also smiled.

“Then I’ll just keep lending it to you for a while longer,” Shi Liuli waved her hand, “I’ve got the Divine Striking Whip now, so I don’t need the Heaven-flipping Seal for the time being.”

The so-called “Divine Striking Whip” was an imitation of the acquired spiritual treasure “Divine Smiting Whip” and was also a Tenth Rank magical treasure.

That spiritual treasure, the Divine Smiting Whip, was also within Penglai Jade Pure View, but it was unknown which elder was in charge of it. Last time, Elder Shi Ding had borrowed it to allow the artifact refining genius third Senior Sister to study and advance the Path of Artifact Refining. The “Divine Striking Whip” was the final product of that research.

“Alright then.” Since the magical treasure was handy for Luo Yan too, no matter how the other party responded, he’d just smash down with a Seal from above, “Thank you, Senior Sister…”

“Oh right!” Shi Liuli clapped her hands and said, “I heard that the reward you received at the Pavilion was the Tenth Rank magical treasure ‘Jade Emperor Bell’? I now have the Divine Striking Whip and am lacking a defensive treasure. How about lending the Jade Emperor Bell to me for a bit, Junior Brother?”

Pah, pah, pah, what do you mean ‘lend it to me for a bit’, Junior Brother? Just say you’re aiming for my Jade Emperor Bell!

However, Luo Yan already had the Divine Fire Mantle, so he didn’t need the Jade Emperor Bell. Moreover, Miss Shi cleverly proposed to exchange it for the Heaven-flipping Seal, so he readily agreed and handed her the Jade Emperor Bell.

Seeing how willingly he gave it, Shi Liuli became even more delighted, her eyes almost curving into crescents with joy:

“Good Junior Brother! I knew you would lend it to me!”

She played with the Jade Emperor Bell, turning it over in her hands, unable to put it down. She was about to ask in detail about how to use it, but outside, the Meng Chong had already returned to Yuqing View and landed on the peak of Penglai Fairy Mountain.

Thus, Shi Liuli excitedly pulled Luo Yan and jumped off the ship, sprinting toward the direction of their sect.

She couldn’t wait to try out the power of the Jade Emperor Bell.

Elder Shi Ding and several fellow senior and junior disciples were walking up from the cabins below the deck, only to see the two holding hands, running off and disappearing at lightning speed.

“Sigh,” Elder Shi Ding couldn’t help but sigh.

His daughter had been practicing Dao since she was five and it had almost been twenty years now; how come her temperament was still like that of a thirteen- or fourteen-year-old girl?

But, to be fair, it was good that she got along so well with Luo Yan, her junior brother.

Normally her closest was the eldest disciple, but they seemed to only have a fraternal relationship. Mainly because Linghu Chu was too free-spirited, and really couldn’t catch Shi Liuli’s eye…

Thinking of this, Elder Shi Ding came back to his senses and let out a wry smile again.

Who his daughter would eventually be fond of, as an old father, what use was there in him worrying?

As long as she was happy, that was enough.
