Go to become a god, let me marry into the sect

#229 - Pretty good at painting cakes

Situ Baichuan looked at the five of them without much change in emotion.

Without excessive expectations, he naturally wouldn't be deliberately dissatisfied with them.

At this moment, Lu Ping looked at his master respectfully and said:

"We did have some gains. After arriving at the Sword Immortal Bamboo Forest, we quickly discovered the Sword Immortal's home.

Junior Brother Gu thought we should obtain the core spirit bamboo of the Sword Immortal Bamboo Forest.

He knew that our Heavenly Suspension Peak didn't have a Sword Immortal Bamboo Forest.

Therefore, he stayed behind to cut bamboo, and the four of us entered the Sword Immortal Tomb."

Situ Baichuan nodded slightly upon hearing this and said to Gu An, "You have a good heart."

Many people want to obtain spirit bamboo, but they can't.

It is said that the method of obtaining it is incorrect.

So far, no one knows how to obtain it.

Some say that the core spirit bamboo can be obtained by cutting down the entire bamboo forest.

Unfortunately, there have been people who have cut down the entire bamboo forest.

In the end, they still didn't get anything.

At this time, Lu Ping continued, "After that, the four of us obtained some inheritance in the Sword Immortal Tomb, which can be considered a small gain."

"Oh?" Situ Baichuan said with a smile, "Not bad, comprehend it well."

He didn't care what kind of inheritance the few of them had obtained.

Whether they are sword cultivators or other cultivators.

Cultivation should always leave something hidden. If everything is known clearly, it would be dangerous.

As their master, he wouldn't ask probing questions.

Unless they actively came to inquire.

Of course, if there is any danger, he would give a warning in advance.

For example, sword immortals sometimes leave behind a special sword intent, which may contain a remnant soul. Those with ulterior motives may use this remnant soul to plunder the bodies of others.

He took the opportunity to inform them of this matter.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ping and the others respectfully saluted and thanked him.

Seeing this, Situ Baichuan didn't say anything more and planned to let them leave.

As for Gu An, he assumed that he didn't have any gains.

He said he was cutting bamboo to find the core spirit bamboo.

He was probably not just cutting wood.

He didn't know why he liked cutting wood so much.

Perhaps he wanted to go to the depths of the sect to cut some special wood.

Indeed, some people have cut down some special trees and changed their future.

It's just...

It's extremely rare.

And it's extremely dangerous.

Only those who have no hope or possibility would try to take this path.

Moreover...

Not everyone can get close to special trees.

Just as he was about to speak, Lu Ping's voice continued, "These are all small gains. The real gain is Junior Brother Gu."

Upon hearing this, Situ Baichuan was slightly surprised, "There's more gains?"

Seeing this, Gu An handed over the bamboo rice and then said, "This is the bamboo rice that this disciple obtained while cutting bamboo.

I'm not sure what it is."

Lu Ping followed up, "This was obtained by Junior Brother Gu when he was cutting wood alone. After obtaining this bamboo rice, the bamboo in the entire bamboo forest disappeared.

In addition, everyone was ejected from the Sword Immortal's home.

It should be the most core treasure of the Sword Immortal's home.

We were afraid of being discovered, so we left the secret realm as soon as possible and came out to find Master.

We were afraid that Junior Brother's good intentions would be met with an accident."

Taking the bamboo rice, Situ Baichuan examined it for a moment and looked at Gu An and said:

"Give it to your teacher?"

"Yes," Gu An nodded seriously.

He didn't mention any conditions or rewards.

Situ Baichuan was indeed surprised.

He didn't expect Gu An to obtain this thing.

He was silent for a while, not knowing what he was thinking, and then said:

"Keep this matter a secret for now. You guys go back first. I have to determine whether it's something the Sword Sect needs."

Saying that, Situ Baichuan looked at Gu An and said:

"At most a month, I will find someone to contact you."

The latter didn't speak, but respectfully saluted.

Then he left with his senior brothers and sisters.

Lu Ping and the others didn't stay too long and left quickly.

They had to go back to digest their gains this time.

Gu An also needed to go back and digest them a bit.

He found that there was still a storage treasure that hadn't been digested, and he didn't know what was inside.

He had to go back and take a look.

A moment later.

Gu An came to the remote lakeside and saw his courtyard.

As soon as he entered, he saw Noodles standing in front of a fat tiger, gesturing something.

The sacred tree flickered from time to time.

Seeming to be communicating.

The fat tiger, about the size of a cat, immediately flattered when he saw Gu An, "Big Brother, you're back. Noodles seems to have something to ask you."

Gu An was slightly surprised.

He turned to look at Noodles.

At this time, one of Noodles' big eyes was swollen and couldn't be opened.

Not only that, but the fins that were used as hands seemed to...

Were also missing quite a few.

"Did you get caught stealing something?"

Gu An's first thought was this.

Noodles gestured to Gu An, "Wa le, wa le, wa la."

Looking very aggrieved.

Gu An sighed in his heart, then sympathized and said, "Speak human language."

He really couldn't understand.

Noodles wa le wa le again, Gu An still couldn't understand, but for safety's sake, he still asked, "Did someone see you?"

Noodles shook his head.

With that, Gu An was relieved.

Then he asked Blood Demon Divine Sovereign to comfort Noodles.

He left some peanuts and went into the house.

Noodles was like this, probably because he was discovered stealing something and then got beaten.

The specific situation was unknown.

But if he wasn't seen, he shouldn't be followed.

In that case, he hadn't been exposed yet.

But why would he be discovered?

Noodles' concealment ability was extremely strong. Even the current him couldn't detect it without relying on a special perception.

"I hope you don't get caught, and if you do, don't rat me out."

He had warned Noodles, but the other party didn't seem to understand.

Fortunately, he hadn't sent him anything recently.

Arriving in the room, Gu An took out the newly obtained storage treasure.

The other party was in the late Nascent Soul stage, so he should have a lot of spirit stones.

But after opening it, he was slightly disappointed.

Five thousand spirit stones.

Still not as good as Li Yue. Are these people so poor?

Or is Li Yue too rich?

Besides the spirit stones, there was also a slightly exquisite talisman brush.

This brush was equipped with cinnabar, with a surge of blood, and even a whistling sound could be heard, so it was probably an extraordinary item.

It's just that I don't know how to sell it.

There was nothing else, and the elixirs were pitifully few.

The talismans were also like that.

After collecting the items, Gu An now had 25,000 spirit stones.

I don't know if it's enough to buy a Void Return technique.

The Nascent Soul realm is already out of reach down the mountain.

And the Void Return above the Nascent Soul...

Even on the mountain, they are powerful beings.

Disciples who can reach this realm are extraordinary.

The relevant techniques are naturally extremely expensive.

20,000 spirit stones is probably far from enough.

I just don't know if bamboo rice can be exchanged for relevant techniques.

Logically speaking, it can, but how to exchange it?

Directly asking for the Void Return technique would expose me, wouldn't it?

Gu An thought for a moment and had an idea.

The current him looks like he's in the early Golden Core stage.

Then exchanging for the Nascent Soul technique and the Void Return technique would be fine.

It would be even better if he could exchange for the higher-level techniques.

Having made a decision, Gu An stopped dwelling on it.

He stayed at his residence for three days before leaving Tianxuan Peak.

It's now late July, and he needs to go to the talisman shop.

Otherwise, he might get fired.

That place is not bad; he can continue to stay there.

Of course, before going, he also needs to go to Peak Outside Peak to see if there are any tricky tasks.

He chose to walk first.

He walked down the mountain and then out.

Along the way, he heard many rumors about the secret realm.

It was said that many people died in the Imperial Spirit Peak, and many disciples of the Qingcheng Sect also died.

It was the work of Zuo Youyan.

Many people didn't know Zuo Youyan, but there were always people explaining.

They all said that Zuo Youyan had returned to take revenge on his previous enemies.

It was all very serious.

As if they had seen it with their own eyes.

But he himself didn't kill many people, so how did it seem like Zuo Youyan was on a killing spree inside?

After thinking about it, Gu An thought of Wei Wen and the others, who were also using Zuo Youyan's name.

It seemed that they had killed many people.

That's what made Zuo Youyan.

After that, he heard that some people had obtained opportunities inside, and it seemed that there were shadows of divine objects in the depths of the secret realm.

Some people even obtained some spiritual eggs.

Possibly some divine beasts.

There was a lot of news, and Gu An didn't listen anymore.

It was already beyond his understanding.

Peak Outside Peak.

As soon as he arrived, he saw Junior Sister Ruan Huan; everyone else had gone out on missions.

Seeing Gu An, Ruan Huan breathed a sigh of relief and said with slight joy, "Senior Brother, you're back?"

"Are there any tricky tasks?" Gu An asked.

"There might be; Senior Brother Pang and the others have already gone to try it out," Ruan Huan said seriously.

Gu An nodded: "Don't worry, let's wait for them to come back and see."

After understanding the situation, there was indeed a tricky task last month, but their cultivation was not high enough.

It was quite troublesome.

Later, they found a team led by Duanmu Qingping to complete the task.

Gu An went to look for her but didn't see her.

She said she was out on a mission.

Thus, Gu An didn't stay any longer.

At noon, he could go sell talismans.

While selling talismans, he had to inquire about the Ouyang family.

Zhu Ri is a good knife, but not sharp enough.

It doesn't carry power smoothly,

and it's rusty.

He had to meet the remaining two people as soon as possible.

Then the rust should fall off.

Then see if he can refine it.

There is one person in the Ouyang family that he needs to meet, Zuo Youyan's biological mother.

However, even if Zhu Ri is refined, its power is still slightly lacking.

There is no powerful saber technique.

Whether it's boxing or saber techniques, he has bought them.

But there isn't one that can keep up with his cultivation speed.

Pingqiu Three Forms is a Golden Core level saber technique.

Even if he learns it, it will be enough for the Nascent Soul stage.

But...

He never has time to learn it; by the time he learns it, he's afraid he will have advanced to Void Refinement.

Faced with a life-and-death battle at the Void Refinement stage, even if he finishes learning Pingqiu Three Forms, it will seem a bit useless.

Gu An was quite emotional; he had been learning for so long, the more he improved, the more he felt he was lacking.

He lacks a boxing or saber technique that he can use all the time.

If it really doesn't work, sword techniques are also fine.

Palm techniques are also good.

It's a pity, he doesn't have any.

Returning to the shop, Gu An opened the door and found a lot of dust everywhere.

Spiritual energy surged, and with a gentle wave.

The dust fell into the flower pot.

Thus, Gu An sat down at the counter and began to read books about talismans.

He wanted to see what level his talisman brush and cinnabar were, and what their value would be if sold.

Unfortunately, the boss seemed to be deliberately guarding against him.

The things recorded here are all relatively simple things,

and the records of cinnabar talisman brushes are not detailed, only saying that the stronger the talisman, the more special the talisman brush and cinnabar are needed.

Otherwise, it would have already failed before the brush even touched the paper.

After opening the door for half a day, Gu An successively received some customers.

In the evening.

Gu An saw an old man walking carefully into the shop.

"Old man, are you here to buy talismans again?" Gu An said plainly.

"Immortal Master," the old man said respectfully: "I didn't understand before and offended the Immortal Master."

"Offended?" Gu An thought for a moment; the other party had not offended him.

Soon the other party explained that when seeing a cultivator, one should call them Immortal Master.

Calling them boss somewhat lowered the status of the immortal.

Gu An was quite curious: "Is there such a thing?"

"Yes, the people inside said it when I went to other talisman shops," the old man said with a lingering fear.

Gu An looked at the other party, knowing that the other party had come out from there and must have paid some price.

Then he asked: "Do you want to buy talismans this time?"

"How many spirit stones is a healing talisman?" Old Ji asked tentatively.

"The same price as before," Gu An replied.

"Hasn't the price increased?" Old Ji asked carefully.

Gu An glanced at the other party and shook his head: "No."

Hearing this, the other party happily handed over the spirit stones and then asked if he could exchange broken spirit stones for spirit stones.

Gu An naturally nodded.

The other party still gave twelve broken spirit stones.

Gu An accepted them and took out a notebook to write them down.

Thus, he had four broken spirit stones deposited.

The other party asked if he would be closing the shop recently, and Gu An gave the answer of normal business hours.

Thus, the other party left with peace of mind.

Gu An looked at the other party's back.

He felt death surrounding Old Ji.

His days are numbered.

A few days later.

Early August.

Gu An had sold a lot of talismans, and his inventory was a bit insufficient.

Fortunately, half a month later, Qin Shufu came out of seclusion.

His current early Golden Core stage cultivation has been consolidated, and he can be said to be a strong person.

Although there is only one major realm difference between Foundation Establishment and Golden Core, their strength and status are completely different.

Now it is easy for him to expand the shop.

But he doesn't have such an idea; it's too ostentatious.

"Congratulations, Senior," Gu An politely saluted.

Qin Shufu looked at Gu An and said: "Your life is not small, are the talismans almost sold out?"

"Almost, the spirit stones are all on Senior's desk," Gu An said, handing over the account book to the other party.

He also keeps an account of how much he sells.

Otherwise, it would be unclear.

The other party didn't look closely, just saying: "After finishing this year, in January next year, you can take the talisman paper in the corner and try to carve it.

Work hard, and I won't mistreat you."

Gu An smiled and expressed his thanks.

He felt that this senior was quite good at drawing cakes.

Unfortunately, he has no interest in making talismans.

Making money is too slow.

It's not suitable for him.

That night, Gu An received a message.

Go find Duanmu Qing tomorrow and talk about the bamboo rice.

It's here.

Whether he can get a higher cultivation method depends on this time.
