Forging Immortality through the Dao Seed

The fervor in his eyes grew more intense.

"Could that ice-crystal creature be the legendary innate immortal spirit? And the aura on him, it seems almost on par with Lord Lu's."

"Golden Core Realm!"

"He actually possesses such a precious Golden Core Realm innate immortal spirit! It seems that even the Dharma Phase Realm elders of our Three Elements City don't have one."

"It seems that my guess was right after all, his background is not simple."

...

...

Time slowly passed.

In the room.

"Sir, I am eternally grateful for your help. I could only wish to repay you as obediently as a beast of burden."

Saying so.

Li Xie couldn't help but steal a glance at Zhang Jing above him.

Seeing that there was no change in his expression on his face.

His heart sank suddenly, and his eyes became gloomy.

"Am I too eager?"

Seeing that his objective for this visit seemed to have failed.

Li Xie slowly rose, squeezed out a faint smile on his face, and politely said goodbye:

"Then I will not disturb you further, sir. I will visit another day."

"Don't worry about it."

Zhang Jing responded gently.

In a short while.

Lu 38 sneaked in, with Bing Liangliang sitting on his shoulder, entering the room together.

"Master, was that guy just now trying to take you as his mentor? But his intentions are a bit heavy."

Lu 38 seemed to realize something and carefully reminded him.

The moment his words fell.

Bing Liangliang nodded emphatically:

"Yes, yes, that human is not good. He always looks at Liangliang with strange eyes, it makes me uncomfortable."

Saying so.

Bing Liangliang directly stood up from Lu 38's shoulder, flicked her sleeve, revealing the densely packed tiny ice particles on her arm.

"What is this thing you have?"

Zhang Jing asked curiously.

"To reply to master, it's goosebumps." Bing Liangliang puffed out her chest and answered boldly.

There was a twitch at the corner of Zhang Jing's eye.

Is this guy trying to fool me?

After all, it is an Ice Crystal Immortal Spirit of the Golden Core Realm, how could it get goosebumps from the gaze of a mere Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator?

No! Does an Ice Crystal Immortal Spirit even get goosebumps?

After thinking for a while.

Zhang Jing bluntly said:

"Alright, I know what you two mean. Don't worry, not to mention that I have no plans to take a disciple, even if I did, it wouldn't be him."

"Master is wise!"

Upon hearing this, Lu 38 and Bing Liangliang exclaimed together.

...

Time passed little by little.

One year, two years, three years...

Three Elements City remained the same as before, not a trace left by the short flow of time.

However, the people living in the city subtly changed.

Of course, there was an exception.

In the midst of a bustling street, crowded with pedestrians.

At some moment.

With the approach of a young man's silhouette, small vendors and ordinary people all stopped what they were doing.

"Good morning, Young Master Zhang!"

"Good day, sir."

"..."

Greetings of enthusiasm instantly echoed one after another.

"Good morning everyone."

Zhang Jing responded gently with a faint smile on his face.

However, his pace did not stop.

Within a moment.

Zhang Jing's figure disappeared around the corner.

At the original location.

The crowd resumed their chatting.

But this time, their topic subtly switched to the just-passing Zhang Jing.

"It's really strange, it's been four or five years, but the young master still looks as young as before, there's absolutely no change."

"Idiot, the young master must be an Immortal, and among Immortals, he must be a big figure. Otherwise, why would Chief Li and his son, who are also Immortals, be so respectful to him?"

"It's all thanks to the young master that our Qingshen Market has been remarkably peaceful in the past few years."

"Yes, rumor has it that those devilish cultivators intentionally avoid Qingshen Market."

"The young master is really a good person."

"Who would disagree? Over the years, the young master has built countless bridges and roads."

...

At this moment.

Inside a small courtyard.

As soon as Zhang Jingfu pushed the door open, he saw Lu 38 and Bing Liangliang leaning over a table, studying something intensely.

Perhaps it was because they were too engrossed in it.

As the door creaked open.

A Lu and an Ice Crystal Immortal Spirit suddenly jerked violently, then turned their heads to look in the direction of the door in unison.

"Master, you're back!"

Bing Liangliang was the first to react, immediately turning into a faint blue light, flickering mid-air, and falling beside Zhang Jing's feet.

"Has anything happened in these two days?"

Zhang Jing asked with a smile.

"To report to master, in the two days you were gone, a total of fifteen people came by. However, most of them wanted to become your disciples. We've sent all of them away."

"Oh, and that Li Xie came by once more."

Bing Liangliang, counting on her fingers, spoke one detail after another.

"He's back again? Adding this one, it should be the eighth time."

Zhang Jing couldn't help but furrow his brows.

He had clearly rejected the man the last time, but unexpectedly, he still hasn't given up.

"If he comes again next time, just turn him away."

Zhang Jing shook his head, speaking in a calm tone.

"Yes, Master."

Meanwhile.

Bing Liangliang finished speaking.

Only then did Lu 38 approach Zhang Jing and handed him an invitation.

"Master, this was sent from the City Lord's Mansion yesterday."

"Oh? An invitation from the City Lord's Mansion?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jing's eyes unexpectedly flashed with surprise. He then accepted the invitation from Lu 38 and started to read it.

After a while.

He put down the invitation, smiling slightly.

"A banquet to celebrate ascension to immortality in three months?"

"Interesting. The Junior City Lord of Three Elements City passed the assessment of the Yellow Sand Law Realm, millions of miles away. He successfully joined and became a disciple of the Taiyi Sect."

"No wonder the entire city is celebrating."

Having travelled the celestial sphere for nearly ten years, Zhang Jing naturally understood the significance of joining the Boundless Tai Yi Taoist Gate for these ordinary forces.

Background! Resources!

From then on, everything changes for them.

It's not too much to say that this will elevate them to the heavens.

Even if... they just become the lowest level Law Realm disciples.

Several moments later.

Inside the room.

Behind Zhang Jing, a six-layer celebration cloud gradually rose, its six-colored celestial light swirling.

The next moment.

In the heart of the golden sun borne by the sixth layer of the golden celebration cloud, a touch of rich purple slowly condensed, eventually transforming into a trace of Acquired Purple Qi, exuding mysterious and lively implications.

"One month!"

Feeling the emergence of the Acquired Purple Qi again, Zhang Jing's eyes unconsciously flashed with faint amusement.

In recent years.

He hasn't just been waiting for the formation of the spiritual lands, doing nothing else.

At least his cultivation had never been neglected.

As his cultivation level increased.

The range of his golden sun of heart's thoughts' absorption of stray thoughts has gradually expanded, and without realizing it, he has covered two nearby neighborhoods, White Horse Lane and Chen Village Lane, within it.

Since then.

It would take him only thirty days to condense a trace of Acquired Purple Qi.

And a single trace of Acquired Purple Qi.

Could increase his skill experience value by thirty to fifty thousand varying.

Thinking about this.

Zhang Jing felt a movement in his heart.

Immediately, the Jade Talisman within the Mud Pill Palace shook slightly.

[Supreme Red Career Immortal Demon Sword· Level 3 (6.011 million/30 million)]

Skill Attribute: Karma Returns (Immortal)

The fourth level is not far away, and new skill attributes...

Zhang Jing's eyes flashed.

As if looking forward to something.

"Additionally, as soon as the matter here is settled, we will have to figure out how to forge the real Supreme Red Career Immortal Demon Sword."

Just thinking about this.

Zhang Jing couldn't help but feel a headache.

The chunk of Innate Blood Gold gifted by the Seven Desire God King instructor is indeed the most suitable material for forging the demon sword, and it's also an Innate Divine Item.

But the only problem is.

For the current him, it's truly hard to refine.

Simply put.

It's like the cart is too big, and the horse is too small.

He can't pull it!

Zhang Jing estimated.

Even the instructor, the Seven Desire God King, probably did not expect that the progress of his mastery of this Great Divine Power would be so fast, and he would set out to forge the Red Career Demon Sword so early.

...

...

Three months later.

Zhang Jing slowly walked out of the room, took a step out, and instantly appeared outside the courtyard gate.

In an instant.

A joyful atmosphere came rushing his way.

The pavilions on both sides of the street were hung with long, red silk, extending all the way to the end of the street.

Looking at this scene.

Zhang Jing's expression unexpectedly paused.

Even the most fringe Qingshen Market is decorated so festively? This shows that the City Lord's Mansion of Three Elements City is really pulling out all the stops for this.

Maybe —

The entrance of the Junior City Lord of Three Elements City into the Tao Sect for cultivation is of greater significance to Three Elements City than one could imagine.

"Are the two of you sure you aren't attending the banquet? There's free food and drink, you know."

Zhang Jing suddenly turned his head, looked at Lu 38 and Bing Liangliang in the courtyard behind him, and asked in a soft voice.

As his words fell.

They both shook their heads.

"Well, I won't force you then. I'll be back soon after I go."

He smiled softly.

Immediately, a flash of light, and he vanished from his original location.
