The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 108 - 87: Orange, Orange Hair, So It’s You... (6k)_2
Chapter 108: Chapter 87: Orange, Orange Hair, So It’s You... (6k)_2
When he emerged from the Great Cauldron, besides Zhou Qing, there were Sect Leader Cao Zhengyang and two other disciples in the Golden Core Realm.
As for Lu Yaoyao and others, they were nowhere to be seen.
"Greetings, Uncle-Master, greetings, senior brothers!" Zhou Qing cupped his hands in salute.
Cao Zhengyang said, "Zhou Qing, you’ve worked hard. This time, you’re going alone, so the chances of attracting those Wandering Souls should be much lower. Don’t worry, if anything happens, the two of them will rush in to save you immediately."
Zhou Qing nodded, but he couldn’t help wishing for some good luck.
Then, Duanmu Shu handed Zhou Qing six Yang Fire Talismans, just in case.
"Then I shall go!" Zhou Qing bowed and resolutely stepped inside.
Watching Zhou Qing’s lonely figure disappear behind the bronze door, Duanmu Shu sighed deeply.
"I wonder how Mo scolds me behind my back. Always sending his disciple into danger, it is indeed immoral." Duanmu Shu muttered to herself.
Cao Zhengyang quickly said, "Please don’t think that way. Junior Brother Mo is actually very understanding. It’s mainly because Zhou Qing really has the experience, and besides, the Gravity Zone is also a form of training for him. I’ll make sure to compensate him more in the future."
Duanmu Shu said no more, her face filled with concern.
Then she transmitted her voice, asking: "Have you investigated what the child mentioned before?"
Cao Zhengyang shook his head.
Now, he only hoped that the child was hallucinating back then. Of course, he could not let his guard down and was still secretly investigating and probing.
Currently, with Cangyan Daoist Palace and another force already targeting Taiqing Sect, he had to remain extremely vigilant. External threats could be handled, but internal troubles were fatal.
Meanwhile, as soon as Zhou Qing stepped into the Gravity Zone, the Broken Sword instantly appeared in his hand.
With a slight focus of his heart and spirit, his personal panel emerged.
[Name: Zhou Qing]
[Age: Nineteen]
[Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Great Perfection]
[Heart Method: Taiqing Profound Qi Skills]
[Talent Skills: Daily Reflection,
Heart Mirror Vision—LV3 (138/300),
Lowering Presence—LV3 (21/100)]
[Skill Fragment: 1/3 (cannot be obtained)]
Even though Lowering Presence had a 20% chance to be ignored by the Golden Core Realm after upgrading to level three, the probability of being discovered was still quite high.
It seemed he needed to find a good opportunity to refresh his points.
This time, after walking less than ten meters forward, the howling of Wandering Souls came from the depths of the passage.
Under Zhou Qing’s gaze, three Wandering Souls at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection led a group of Wandering Souls at the Qi Condensation Realm, surging towards him.
Seeing their eyes fixed on him, Zhou Qing couldn’t help but smile.
"I’m the only one in the entire passage, so they must be coming for me. I knew it; luck isn’t always on my side. It seems the probability fell on that 10%."
Zhou Qing muttered to himself and immediately prepared for combat.
As the Wandering Souls were about to get close, lightning exploded in an instant, and the sound of thunder echoed through the entire passage. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Outside the passage, the Supreme Elder and the Sect Leader, upon hearing the sounds of battle, couldn’t help but show worried expressions on their faces...
Shortly afterward, Zhou Qing leaned against the millstone, panting heavily, his whole body drenched, but his face showing a happy smile.
"Still four waves of attacks, but it was faster than simulating it in the Divine Ruins Celestial Palace by a tea time. Mainly because these Yang Fire Talismans blocked some of the Wandering Souls. My strength still needs improvement."
This time, Zhou Qing didn’t restore his energy by absorbing spirit stones but after a brief rest, he pushed the millstone and walked deeper into the passage.
He skillfully placed the millstone at the entrance, and after hearing sounds from the corridor, he wrapped his feet with cloth strips and tested a few steps.
Once he confirmed there was no danger, he jogged into the corridor.
After a short while, he indeed found over a dozen Spirit Mushrooms. Overjoyed, he carefully picked them all and placed them in a jade box.
Seeing the end of the corridor close at hand, Zhou Qing didn’t hesitate at all and chose to retreat, wiping all traces of his presence.
Then, he returned the millstone to its original place, ensuring he left no cracks, and turned it counterclockwise, removing the Gravity Zone.
After that, he walked out slowly, his steps heavy with fatigue.
As soon as he stepped out of the cave, the sunlight was blinding, causing Zhou Qing to instinctively raise his hand to shield his eyes.
Immediately, two figures descended rapidly.
"Are you alright?" Duanmu Shu hurriedly asked, checking Zhou Qing’s injuries immediately.
Fortunately, apart from his spiritual power being nearly exhausted, there were no other major problems.
Zhou Qing, full of fatigue, took a step back quickly and said: "To the Supreme Elder, Uncle-Master, I’m fortunate not to disappoint you. The gravity has been lifted."
Hearing these words, Cao Zhengyang praised extensively.
"Good child, not bad, not bad!"
Duanmu Shu was also full of relief. From beginning to end, this child had never let them down.
Then, she looked at Cao Zhengyang and said: "Alright, you take them out first, and I’ll handle the rest."
Cao Zhengyang said: "I’ll be back soon. Last time you got injured; having someone to look after you is always better."
After a brief hesitation, Duanmu Shu agreed.
Then, Cao Zhengyang took Zhou Qing and the other two disciples and left the Pocket World...
By dusk, Zhou Qing looked at a large pile of spirit stones in front of him and started planning.
"Now I have one hundred and one mid-grade spirit stones. I’ll temporarily not count the low-grade ones, as they’re just chicken feed. Until I breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm, I probably won’t return to the Divine Ruins Celestial Palace."
