Chapter 195.
Qianjing Chief Heavenly Master’s Mansion.
Yunyang Chief Zhenguo Cao Chengping, Supreme Lord Cao, received the eight recently arrived Zhenguo Celestial Masters at the Stargazing Pavilion.
This Zifu was already very old, his face was withered and his skin cracked, his white hair hung down to the ground, and his eyes were cloudy and dead.
Anyone can see that he is nearing his end.
Practicing qi is a hundred years old, zifu is two hundred, jindan is five hundred, yuan ying is a thousand years.
Although the cultivation world has a variety of life-extending means, but the ordinary Purple Mansion on the person can live over two hundred years is already considered rare, cultivation techniques and fighting and killing are likely to damage the life expectancy.
A Purple Mansion Superior like Cao Chengping, who didn’t have much life expectancy, actually held a town guard position in the mundane world.
It was easy to conjure up two words.
Outcast!
However, Cao Chengping’s township was extremely deep and did not show the slightest bit of resentment or indignation, his expression was extremely calm.
His attitude towards the eight new Heavenly Masters was also very kind.
He carefully explained to the disciples about the duties and authority of the Zhengu Tianshi, as well as important taboo matters.
There was a difference between Immortals and mortals, and as the representative of the Yunyang Sect in Daqian, the power of the Zhenshou Heavenly Masters was certainly great, but they could not act recklessly.
Then this Violet Mansion Superior made a point of emphasizing that everyone should try their best to collect some spirit materials up during the period of subduing the place.
There were rewards for turning in spiritual objects, even including the Orifice Breaking Dan!
The Orifice Breaking Pill was a very precious spirit pill, and its function was to assist cultivators who had reached the full circle of qi cultivation to break their orifices and open their homes.
After taking it, besides boosting the probability of breaking the orifices, it could also protect the cultivator’s heart veins and dantian.
This way, even if the promotion fails, one would not lose their life.
The exchange price of an Orifice Breaking Pill in the Inner Sect Sect Affairs Hall was as high as 10,000 Hoon Points!
And when a cultivator with a great circle of qi cultivation breaks the orifices and opens the mansion, it is best to prepare more than two orifices breaking pills to have the highest success rate.
So hearing that there was an Orifice Breaking Pill as a reward, many disciples revealed a look of interest.
Although the status of disciples from families like theirs was quite prominent, because of their qualifications and talents, it was difficult to receive a large amount of resources from their families, and it would be considered a blessing from their ancestors if they were able to receive a single Orifice Breaking Pill when breaking the orifice and opening the house.
An orifice-breaking dan is also very valuable to them!
And Wang Chen was secretly a bit strange.
The Mortal Realm was a land of extinct spirits, without the slightest bit of heaven and earth’s spiritual energy, and cultivators who lived for a long period of time would fall out of their realm if they didn’t receive any replenishment.
Why is there still the existence of spirits?
He would like to ask for an understanding, however, after Cao Chengping finished his explanation, he revealed a trace of fatigue and whisked his sleeve, “You guys will stay here tonight, and go to your respective offices early tomorrow morning.”
After saying this, this Violet Mansion Lord closed his eyes.
Everyone could not help but look at each other.
With Cao Chengping in this state, it was not good for anyone to continue disturbing, so under the guidance of the maidservant, they left the Stargazing Pavilion to head to their resting abode.
The Stargazing Pavilion quickly fell into silence.
Cao Chengping sat motionless on the futon, his breathing was extremely weak, and his heart only beat at long intervals.
After half an hour, this Violet Mansion Lord abruptly opened his eyes.
Essence flickered in his eyes, where there was still the muddy darkness from earlier, “Come in.”
The door of the room was pushed open, and a young cultivator came in and knelt down to perform a great salute: “Nephew Cao Depeng, pay my respects to Uncle Ancestor!”
It was clearly the same senior brother Cao who had come on the same ship as Wang Chen!
In front of Cao Chengping, where was he still half as flighty and domineering, respectful and well-behaved.
“Get up.”
Cao Chengping reached out with an imaginary hand, “Do you know why I arranged for you to go to Pingbo City?”
Cao Depeng was careful, “Nephew and grandson don’t know, please ask uncle ancestor to show me.”
Cao Chengping got up and said, “Pingbo City is east of the sea, although it is a county city, it is the place where the three seas of wonders gather, and there are quite a few spiritual objects in it.”
“I don’t care what means you use, you must take these spiritual objects into your hands, do you understand?”
Cao Depeng hurriedly replied, “Nephew Sun understands.”
“Actually, you don’t understand.”
Cao Chengping shook his head, “This matter is related to the rise and fall of our Cao Clan, even though you are only responsible for a small portion of it, you can’t afford to slip up, do you understand?”
He said the same sentence in a stern voice, and the atmosphere in the Stargazer Pavilion steeply became gloomy.
Cao Depeng was instantly drenched in sweat, and immediately knelt on the ground once again, “Nephew Sun understands!”
“Go.”
Cao Chengping waved his hand, “Don’t be afraid when it comes to things, with me here, you can let go of your hands.”
Cao Depeng trembled with fear: “Yes.”
After sending this nephew away, Cao Chengping couldn’t help but shake his head.
The Cao Clan, the generation was really not as good as the previous one, and there were not many decent ones among the direct descendants.
But at this treacherous time, he had no choice.
When Cao Depeng returned to his residence, there were already five people waiting in the room.
In front of these fellow disciples, he immediately shivered, “Don’t worry everyone, do your job well when you get to the place, uncle will take care of us!”
These inner disciples belonged to various Immortal Cultivation Families, some were dependent on the Cao Family, some were allies of the Cao Family.
None of them could compare to Cao Depeng, so they formed a small gang with Cao Depeng as the main one.
Receiving Cao Depeng’s promise, several disciples were overjoyed, “Luckily I followed Senior Brother Cao!”
“Senior brother is righteous!”
“Yes.”
Regarding their flattery, Cao Depeng accepted it all and said with a smile, “Alright, let’s not talk about that.”
He asked, “Do any of you know what the origin of that fellow called Wang Chen is?”
One of the disciples hesitated for a moment and replied, “I only know that he’s from Sunset Peak, but for the specifics, I’ll have to send a letter back home to ask someone to help me inquire.”
“Forget it.”
Cao Depeng frowned, “As long as he doesn’t get in our way, we don’t need to care about him.”
“If you don’t know what to do …….”
His eyes flashed with a ferocious light, “The Qian Kingdom’s one hundred and twenty-six counties aren’t too far behind this one Zhenguo Tianshi!”
Cao Depeng spoke in a murderous manner, and the people next to him nodded their heads in unison, no one thought there was anything wrong with this.
Someone asked, “What about Fei Xinghe?”
“Fei Xinghe?”
Cao Depeng sneered, “What use can this punk be, if I tell him to go east, will he dare to go west?”
“Remember, our opponents are the second batch coming over.”
“Everyone must be united, otherwise these three years will be wasted!”
The people swore and gambled, stating that they would take Cao Depeng as their main guide in the future, and unite as one in this endeavor.
The more Cao Depeng heard, the happier he became, and high-fived, “Go, I’ll take you to the best restaurant in Qianjing to taste the earth’s fireworks and see the different scenery of this mundane world!”
In fact, everyone did not have much interest in the earthly fireworks and the mundane scenery.
After all, in the two heavens of the Immortal and Mortal worlds, what could the land of the Absolute Spirit have to offer that would attract cultivators?
But Cao Depeng was in high spirits, who was so colorless to jump out and spoil the fun at this time!
So the crowd responded and left the Qianjing Chief Celestial Master’s Mansion in a flurry.
