26: Shadow Pavilion, Treasure House

"ginseng fruit?"

Li Luo's eyes flashed; this thing sounded familiar.

Sword Dust, who had awakened from his Epiphany in the Dao of the Sword, followed behind his Revered Master and Senior Sister Ji Yue'er, his small face still somewhat gloomy.

"Chen gege, congratulations! Your strength has improved greatly this time."

In his mind, the ethereal voice of the young girl echoed.

"Chan'er, I'm sorry."

"This time, I couldn't find a treasure to reshape your Physical Body."

Sword Dust said somewhat dejectedly.

"It's okay, Chen gege. After all, there are only two more Heaven And Earth Treasures left to collect."

The young girl named Chan'er encouraged him.

"Sigh, it's easy to say. But the main Materials needed, the ginseng fruit and the holy spirit wood embryo, are still nowhere in sight."

Sword Dust sighed.

As a Loose Cultivator, his growth in strength over the past few years began when he picked up a rusty longsword.

And from that longsword, he met Chan'er, who was a spirit residing within it.

Both a Revered Master and a friend, their long companionship made Sword Dust develop affection for the cheerful and lively Chan'er.

Chan'er also told Sword Dust that in her memories, there was a method that could help her recast her Physical Body.

However, it required many Heaven And Earth Treasures.

This was the fundamental motivation for Sword Dust to travel far and wide, undergoing one adventure after another.

This time, he came to Wuling City because he heard that winning ten consecutive matches in the Fighting Arena could help a Martial Artist achieve a wish.

Therefore, he signed up to participate.

However, the internal darkness and dirty tricks almost crippled him.

Fortunately, he met his Revered Master.

"Right, Revered Master."

"Chan'er, I can ask Revered Master."

Suddenly, Sword Dust's eyes lit up.

"Chen gege, don't. I admit your Revered Master is very mysterious, and I can't quite see through him either."

"However, it's impossible for him to have those two treasures... Huh, this Qi!"

Originally, the young girl named Chan'er was still persuading Sword Dust not to ask Li Luo.

On one hand, she didn't want to expose herself.

After all, Sword Dust had just become Li Luo's Disciple. If Li Luo had ill intentions, she could be a hidden trump card.

On the other hand, she hadn't actually told Sword Dust that both the ginseng fruit and the holy spirit wood embryo were extremely rare.

It could be said that even in her ancient Family from before, it would not be easy to procure them.

The reason she told Sword Dust this method of recasting his Physical Body was to give the young man something to hope for, to motivate Sword Dust to constantly grow stronger.

However, suddenly, her voice changed slightly.

It even trembled a little.

"What's wrong, Chan'er? Are you uncomfortable?"

Sword Dust asked anxiously.

After all.

It was his fault that Lei Xiao had cut off the longsword where Chan'er resided.

"No, Chen gege, I sensed the Qi of the ginseng fruit."

The young girl Chan'er exclaimed in surprise.

"What, ginseng fruit! Where is it?!"

Upon hearing this, Sword Dust also became incredibly excited.

At this moment, they saw a fruit enveloped in Spiritual Qi appear in Li Luo's hand, who was walking ahead of them.

The fruit had snow-white flesh, and its entire form resembled a chubby baby.

It was precisely the ginseng fruit rewarded by the System.

"Revered Master, what kind of spiritual fruit is this? It's so cute."

Ji Yue'er blinked her large eyes, full of immortal aura, and asked curiously.

"Thump."

Just as Li Luo was about to speak and explain to Ji Yue'er.

"Revered Master, your Disciple Sword Dust has an impertinent request: I wish to ask you to bestow the ginseng fruit in your hand upon me."

"Sword Dust is willing to pay any price!"

Sword Dust's behavior startled both Li Luo and Ji Yue'er.

Ji Yue'er looked at Sword Dust with great confusion.

This Junior Brother had always been so cold; she rarely saw him this excited.

Upon hearing this.

Li Luo raised an eyebrow. He had just asked the System about the effects of the ginseng fruit.

Combining that with Sword Dust's current behavior.

He glanced at the spot on Sword Dust's chest where the broken sword was placed and chuckled, "It's for the existence within that broken sword, isn't it?"

Sword Dust was startled upon hearing this.

Even Chan'er trembled violently.

Her perception was correct.

Could it be that when they first met, this mysterious young man had already discovered her?

Who exactly was he?

Soon, under Sword Dust's explanation, Li Luo and Ji Yue'er understood the whole story.

However, what Li Luo hadn't expected was that the old man in previous novels had, this time, turned into a young girl.

Moreover, Sword Dust's persistence and pursuit of love also greatly impressed Li Luo.

"Get up. It's just a mere ginseng fruit. If you want it, I'll give it to you."

Li Luo said with a smile.

He extended his palm, and a gentle force directly helped Sword Dust up.

He casually handed the treasure Sword Dust had dreamed of to Sword Dust.

The latter carefully put it away.

"Thank you, Revered Master."

They say that a man does not easily shed tears.

At this moment, Li Luo noticed that Sword Dust's eyes were slightly red.

At this moment, Sword Dust also completely acknowledged Li Luo as his Revered Master. In fact, in his heart, he would go through fire and water for his Revered Master without hesitation!

Li Luo nodded upon seeing this.

"holy spirit wood embryo, I haven't heard of this either. However, once there's any news, I, your Revered Master, will definitely help you find it."

Li Luo promised.

"Senior Sister didn't lie to you, did she? Isn't Revered Master too good?"

Ji Yue'er saw that Sword Dust, this resolute and cold Sword Cultivator, was almost moved to tears by their Revered Master.

She immediately teased him.

"Mm!"

Sword Dust nodded vigorously.

Meeting such a Revered Master was his good fortune.

At the same time.

Inside Wuling City's Fighting Arena, there was chaos.

However, there were no strong measures to stop it now.

And in the luxurious room on the top floor of the Fighting Arena.

"Wah."

He spat out another large mouthful of blood.

The burly man knelt on one knee, his face ashen, and his Qi extremely weak.

"Sir, Sir!"

Some of the Fighting Arena staff looked at the heavily injured Sir, their faces filled with horror.

"My life is over!"

"Send... send a message to the Shadow Pavilion... inform my father and brother not... not to avenge me!"

After saying this, the manager of the Fighting Arena completely breathed his last.

"Send the message!"

"But Sir said..."

"Nonsense! Whoever killed our Shadow Pavilion's Crown Prince must die, no matter who he is!"

......

"Quick, go to Jubao Tower! It's said that Master Gu is publicly instructing apprentices in Alchemy today and will choose the one with the best Aptitude to take as his Personal Disciple."

"Wow, really? Master Gu is a Grandmaster Alchemist of the third rank. It's said that even Bronze Grade powers treat him as an honored guest."

"Let's go quickly and take a look."

......

"Revered Master, Wuling City's Jubao Tower is the largest trade association in Wuling City. Almost everything a Cultivator needs can be bought there."

"And Master Gu is the chief Alchemist of Jubao Tower."

Sword Dust had, after all, spent some time in Wuling City and was quite familiar with the situation there.

However, even though Jubao Tower was famous and claimed that there was nothing they couldn't get, only things you couldn't think of.

But, they didn't have the ginseng fruit and the holy spirit wood embryo, these two Heaven And Earth Treasures.

And their Revered Master was simply too mysterious.

He actually possessed a ginseng fruit.

"Oh?"

"Alchemy? That's interesting. Let's go and see."

Li Luo's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

He didn't know the exact level of his Grandmaster Alchemy. Moreover, he needed to purchase many things, and it seemed Jubao Tower should be able to satisfy his needs.
