Chapter 1295
"Looks like Tian Qi … I really have to join. With Senior Qing's information, I'll definitely find out the truth behind Hundred Herbs Gate's destruction of my Shang Huaming!"
Xiao Hua narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, "But … Hundred Herbs Gate is obviously the mastermind and the beneficiary. Even if Tian Qi knows about this, what can he do?
Tian Qi is just a group of loose cultivators. They're all in the Qi Refining stage, far weaker than Hundred Herbs Gate!
And … and the matter of avenging the Gate Master and my two senior brothers still falls on me. Before I have any confidence, I can't reveal any clues!
I can't attract Hundred Herbs Gate's attention!
No one … can pay attention to me! "
After a while, everyone stopped in front of a small building. There was a stone tablet in front of the small building, and strange runes of unknown use were engraved on it. At the entrance of the small building, there was also a square signboard, and on it were three simple and unadorned words, "Cloud Garden".
"Fellow Daoists, welcome to Tian Qi. This Hua Yun Garden is one of Tian Qi's properties in Jingbo City. I really used spirit stones to exchange for it. Fellow Daoists, please feel free to come here!"
It was rare for Qing Fengmin to be so relaxed and humorous, causing Han Fei and the others to smile. Ma Qingcheng smiled and said, "This is Fellow Daoist Qing's hard work. As a loose cultivator, I really feel ashamed!"
"Fellow Daoist Ma, you're too kind. As long as we persevere, we can achieve great things. Although we loose cultivators are weak individually, as long as we gather together, we're definitely a force to be reckoned with!" Qing Fengmin cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Please, everyone, please ~"
"Senior Qing, please go first!"
Han Fei and the others naturally declined out of courtesy. Qing Fengmin took the lead and left. Everyone entered one by one according to their cultivation level. Xiao Hua was naturally the last to enter. The small door of Hua Yun Garden didn't look big, but after entering, Xiao Hua understood that there was actually another world inside!
In front of him was a rather large lotus pond. The pond was filled with sparkling lotus leaves, and dozens of blooming lotus flowers were facing the sun, incomparably enchanting!
Looking at the side of the lotus pond, there were several lofts. The front of each loft was faintly glowing. It seemed that one could only enter with a yellow talisman. Along the front of the loft, there was also a path made of bluestone, extending to the back of the lotus pond.
Inside the pavilion, by the lotus pond, there were a few rogue cultivators dressed in different attire. Some were leisurely, some were in a hurry. However, they were all around the fifth level of Qi Refining. When they saw Qing Fengmin, they all smiled and bowed respectfully.
The cultivators who had followed Qing Fengmin entered the Huayun Park. After greeting Qing Fengmin, they went their separate ways, presumably having their own matters to attend to. As for Han Fei and Qiao Fengyue, a fourth layer Qi Refining loose cultivator called Zhang Zhihao greeted them and led them to the nearest pavilion!
After waiting for the number of people to decrease, Xiao Hua followed Ma Qingcheng to a loft. Ma Qingcheng smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, this way please."
As he spoke, he slapped his storage pouch and stuck a yellow talisman on the door of the pavilion. The door opened with a creak.
"Senior, please!" Xiao Hua tactfully walked behind Ma Qingcheng.
Ma Qingcheng wasn't polite and led Xiao Hua into the pavilion. This pavilion was also extremely large. Xiao Hua glanced at it and saw that it was almost half the size of Shang Hua Ming's main hall. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart, "This … is probably some kind of magic technique, right?
This small two-story building might have a very large courtyard behind it, but this pavilion … how could it have such a large space? "
Seemingly understanding Xiao Hua's thoughts, Ma Qingcheng smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, please sit. A profound spatial magic technique was used to enlarge the cramped space. If it was your first time seeing it, I'm afraid you wouldn't understand!"
"Spatial magic technique?" Xiao Hua stared blankly and said curiously, "It sounds like an amazing magic technique!"
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, please sit down and explain in detail!"
Ma Qingcheng knew that if Xiao Hua entered the Heaven Forsaken Realm, he would have the identity of a talisman master. Perhaps he would have something to rely on in the future, so he was especially polite.
Xiao Hua naturally also knew, but he was still a second layer Qi Refinement cultivator after all, so he didn't dare to belittle himself. He only cupped his hands modestly and said, "Senior, please!"
Ma Qingcheng sat down with a smile and pointed at the small white fruit on the table beside him, saying, "This is a specialty from the bottom of Jingbo City's lake, the White Kernel Fruit. It's very refreshing and has quite the detoxification effect. Fellow Daoist might as well try it!"
"Thank you, Senior!"
Xiao Hua nodded and also sat down. He picked up one and threw it into his mouth. This White Kernel Fruit wasn't like other spirit fruits. It was unexpectedly hard. When he bit down, crunching sounds could be heard, and his mouth was filled with a fishy bitterness!
"This … this is also a specialty?"
Xiao Hua frowned as he ate. However, when he swallowed the White Kernel Fruit, a fine stream of clear energy rose and gradually spread to his limbs and meridians, causing his mind to become much clearer!
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Xiao is indeed amazing. When I ate the White Kernel Fruit that day, I … directly spat it out. I didn't expect … Fellow Daoist only frowned!" Ma Qingcheng clapped his hands and said.
Xiao Hua didn't bat an eyelid and replied, "How can Junior spit out what Senior bestowed?"
"En, that's right. The one who received I that day was also a Fellow Daoist at the fourth layer of Qi Refining. I … didn't have any misgivings!"
Ma Qingcheng nodded slightly and looked around. He pointed with his finger and said, "Space magic is a magic treasure. It can change or increase or decrease the size of space. Only seniors at Nascent Soul stage and above have the magic power to cast it. I have only heard of it, so even if I wanted to talk about it in detail, I wouldn't be able to!
However, most of the space magic in Jingbo City borrow the power of the Great Purifying Heart Formation to cast it. With Jingbo City's City Lord Liu's status, it's impossible for him to personally cast it! "
Xiao Hua nodded as if he understood. After thinking for a moment, he respectfully asked, "Junior has learned very little and doesn't know many things. There are many things that I would like to ask Senior for advice on!"
"Hehe, it's fine. Looking at Fellow Daoist Qing's appearance, he also wants you to enter my Heaven's Forsaken Sect. As long as you enter the Heaven's Forsaken Sect, we rogue cultivators should naturally support each other. If Fellow Daoist has any questions, I will do my best to answer them!
However, at this time, as long as it doesn't involve the Heaven's Forsaken Sect, even if it's a question in cultivation, I can help you resolve it! "Ma Qingcheng said with a smile.
"Thank you, Senior ~" Xiao Hua cupped his hands and said, "Junior has two areas that I don't understand. They don't involve the Heaven's Forsaken Sect, so I hope Senior can enlighten me!"
"En, please speak ~"
"Just now, when Junior followed Senior into the city, we met two Golden Core stage seniors, but … Junior couldn't see through the cultivation of these two seniors?
Some ordinary detection magic … didn't work. This … why is this? "Xiao Hua said respectfully.
"Hahaha, so Fellow Daoist Xiao is asking about this!"
Ma Qingcheng said with a bit of surprise, "This is actually very simple. These two Golden Core stage seniors have a cultivation technique that conceals their cultivation. Not to mention that Fellow Daoist is only at the second level of the Qi Refining stage and doesn't have divine sense, even if a Foundation Establishment stage or Golden Core stage cultivator were to use their divine sense, they might not be able to see through it!"
"Only Seniors whose cultivation is higher than these two Golden Core stage seniors by two levels or more can use their divine sense to see through their true strength!"
"A cultivation technique that conceals their cultivation?" Xiao Hua's heart stirred and he asked, "These … cultivation techniques … why are they so mystical?"
"Hehe, yes, there are all kinds of strange things in the cultivation world. What kind of cultivation techniques don't they have?
What kind of cultivation techniques don't they have?
This cultivation technique isn't anything special. Many people know it. The only difference is the profoundness of the cultivation technique. I heard that the most profound cultivation technique is four or five levels higher than the other person's cultivation! "Ma Qingcheng said without any hint of envy!
"En, thank you Senior for your guidance. Junior's second question is …" Xiao Hua hesitated and asked, "This Jingbo City's City Lord Liu and Old Man Mu Qiang are both Mid Nascent Soul stage seniors. The disciples who guard Jingbo City are also at the tenth level of the Qi Refining stage. Which sect in our country of Xi does this Jingbo City belong to?"
"Hiss ~" Hearing Xiao Hua's question, Ma Qingcheng sucked in a breath of cold air. He looked Xiao Hua up and down and asked curiously, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, why did you suddenly ask such a strange question?"
Xiao Hua was startled and quickly got up, "Aiyo, Senior Ma, did Junior ask a question that shouldn't be asked?
It's Junior's first time seeing a Nascent Soul stage senior. My heart was moved and I also saw the peculiarity of Jingbo City. That's why I thought of asking. I don't know which other sect besides our country of Xi's three major sects has such great strength! "
"Oh, so that's how it is ~" Ma Qingcheng's face relaxed and he waved his hand, "Sit, Fellow Daoist Xiao. This question is actually nothing!
However, to talk about the City Lord of Jingbo City in Jingbo City, I always feel a little awkward! "
"If it's difficult, Senior doesn't need to say it!" Xiao Hua tactfully said.
"En, we'll talk about this matter in detail after we leave Jingbo City!
Many people know the origins of the City Lord of Jingbo City. Just ask around and you'll find out! "
Ma Qingcheng didn't want to talk about this with Xiao Hua and casually said, "I only want to tell you one thing. This City Lord Liu and Old Man Mu Qiang … are not from any sect in our country of Xi!"
"Ah?" Xiao Hua was surprised, "They're also rogue cultivators?"
"Hehe, Fellow Daoist Xiao is really ignorant. In our country of Xi's cultivation world, besides cultivation sects and rogue cultivators, are there no other people?"
"Cultivation family?
Cultivation family?? "Xiao Hua suddenly realized.
"Hehe, more or less!" Ma Qingcheng obviously didn't want to talk about it in detail.
"What does' more or less' mean?" Xiao Hua muttered, "They shouldn't be from a cultivation family!"
However, after thinking for a moment, Xiao Hua's heart moved and he asked again, "That's right, Senior Ma, previously Senior said that in Yi City, there are some blank communication talismans. As long as you inject a trace of your own magic power, it will become your own communication talisman. That … how is it refined?"
"Oh, about this, each sect has different refining methods. Just take those simple refining methods that I taught you just now …" Ma Qingcheng saw that Xiao Hua was tactful and was very willing to tell Xiao Hua some details that didn't need to be kept secret!
Xiao Hua listened and was secretly happy, "Hehe, it's just as I expected!
It should be like this! "
But immediately, he came to a realization, "This kind of secret technique, I … I, a cultivator who has never refined a communication talisman before, how can I know at a glance?"
