175: invite

Fu Cheng looked at the young yet unfathomable face opposite him, and his thoughts grew wildly like weeds.

An excellent Opportunity was right before his eyes.

He couldn't miss it.

"Fellow Daoist Lin."

Fu Cheng took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart, making his voice sound as steady as possible.

"Fu has an Opportunity here, but it's quite dangerous, and I haven't been able to find a suitable companion."

"Oh?" Lin Feng picked up his teacup, gently blew on the hot steam, and didn't even lift his eyelids. "Tell me about it."

Seeing his interest, Fu Cheng's spirits lifted, and he quickly said, "To be honest, Fellow Daoist, Fu and Fairy Bai Yaoyi from Xiao Ji Palace discovered a ruin in Southern Xinjiang many years ago."

"It is said that there are Yin Zhi Horses within that ruin."

"Yin Zhi Horse?" Lin Feng's movements paused.

He was too familiar with this name.

Isn't this the main ingredient for refining the core formation pill?

The core formation pill can greatly increase the chance of a Nascent Soul Cultivator achieving a Breakthrough.

"Exactly!" Seeing that Lin Feng knew about this item, Fu Cheng's words became more urgent. "That Yin Zhi Horse has extremely strong medicinal properties, and there must be high-level Yao Beasts guarding it nearby, and the ruin is full of Restrictions. Fairy Bai and I are not entirely confident."

"We agreed to find two more trustworthy Fellow Daoists, making it four people in total, to explore it together. The Yin Zhi Horse obtained will be equally divided among the four of us."

Lin Feng looked up at Fu Cheng's face, which was full of anticipation, and his thoughts raced.

core formation pill?

He sent his Divine Sense into the System backpack, looking at the several jade bottles in the corner, with the words "core formation pill" clearly visible on the bottles.

He had so many of these things he could eat them like candies.

He had no interest in the Yin Zhi Horse itself.

But he was very interested in "Bai Yaoyi" and the "trip to Southern Xinjiang."

This was the beginning of the Kunlun Mountain dungeon.

"Good." Lin Feng put down his teacup and uttered a single word.

"Ah?"

Fu Cheng had prepared a whole set of persuasive arguments, ready to appeal to reason and emotion, but he didn't expect the other party to agree so readily.

He was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

"Haha! Good! Fellow Daoist Lin is indeed a straightforward person!"

Fu Cheng excitedly slapped the stone table, making the teacup jump.

"With a great Cultivator like Fellow Daoist joining us, our chances of success on this trip have greatly increased!"

He took out a palm-sized white jade plate from his Storage Pouch and handed it to Lin Feng.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, this is our communication spell plate. When the time is right, Fu will contact Fellow Daoist through this item."

Lin Feng took the jade plate and casually put it away.

Fu Cheng was in a great mood and added, "Oh, by the way, Fellow Daoist Lin, Fu also heard a piece of news. Ten years from now, there will be an underground auction in the Great Jin imperial capital, far grander than today's, where all sorts of rare treasures will appear. If Fellow Daoist is interested, Fu can get Fellow Daoist an extra invitation."

Larger scale?

Lin Feng's heart stirred.

Doesn't that mean more Nascent Soul Cultivators will be present, and perhaps there will be some unexpected surprises?

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Fu." He nodded.

"No trouble! No trouble!" Fu Cheng waved his hands repeatedly, his wrinkles creasing with laughter.

This was a favor from a great Cultivator delivered right to his doorstep; he had made a huge profit.

Seeing that the matter was settled, Fu Cheng prepared to get up and leave.

"Fellow Daoist Fu." Lin Feng spoke again.

"Please speak, Fellow Daoist!"

"May I ask, Fellow Daoist Fu, do you have Fairy Bai Yaoyi's communication token?"

Fu Cheng's smile froze slightly, and he looked at Lin Feng with a strange expression.

"This... I do have one," he said, deliberating, "but this item is specifically used by Fairy Bai to contact for the Southern Xinjiang gathering; it cannot be activated casually on normal days."

"Is that so?" A perfectly appropriate hint of regret appeared on Lin Feng's face. "I have long admired Xiao Ji Palace and originally wanted to get acquainted with Fairy Bai first, to visit and seek some guidance."

So that's it!

Fu Cheng suddenly understood, then clapped his hands and smiled.

"This is easy!" He said, "As far as Fu knows, Fairy Bai has also often traveled around Great Jin in recent years, seeking Opportunities. At the auction ten years from now, with her personality, she will most likely be there. At that time, wouldn't it be better for Fu to introduce the two of you?"

Lin Feng thought about it and, too lazy to bother finding someone himself, agreed to Fu Cheng's suggestion.

"In that case, many thanks, Fellow Daoist."

"You're welcome! You're welcome!"

The two then bid farewell, and Fu Cheng, greatly satisfied, transformed into a streak of light and disappeared into the night.

Lin Feng stood still, watching him leave, then his figure flickered, the black robe once again covering his entire body, and his aura became cold again.

Now that he had nothing to do,

He planned to go to the Extreme West to bring out Great Yan Divine Lord, the Puppet genius who was extremely regrettable in the original work.

...

At the same time.

Tiannan, Falling Cloud Sect, Taibai Peak.

Lin Feng's main body on Star Palace Immortal Island suddenly opened his eyes.

A sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

He sensed that the Restriction outside his Immortal Cave on Taibai Peak had been triggered.

The people who came were Lv Luo and Song Yu.

Lin Feng's figure flickered, and the next moment he teleported to Taibai Peak, appearing outside the Immortal Cave.

"Senior Brother Lü, Senior Brother Luo." He greeted them with a gentle smile on his face.

"Junior Brother Lin, long time no see!"

As soon as Lv Luo saw Lin Feng, he laughed heartily and patted him on the shoulder.

"Haha, I've been busy Cultivating a secret art recently." Lin Feng said modestly.

"Senior Brother Lin, it has been decades since you joined the sect." Elder Luo, whose surname was Luo, spoke from the side, his expression quite serious. "Senior Brother Lü and I discussed it, and we would like to ask you to lead the team for this Three Sects Competition."

"Oh? Is the Three Sects Competition about to begin?" Lin Feng asked.

"Exactly." Lv Luo nodded. "Each sect has produced some good sprouts over the years, and this is a good Opportunity to let them gain experience. Your strength is formidable, and you rarely show it in public, so it is most suitable for you to lead the team!"

Lin Feng originally wanted to decline.

But then he thought, he was already at Nascent Soul Perfection, only a Breakthrough away from Soul Transformation, and bitter Cultivation was no longer of much use.

Moreover, he hadn't shown his face in the sect for a very long time.

He also didn't know how the girls were doing now.

And the Mo Fengwu sisters...

Thinking of that charming face that could be both joyful and angry, a smile unconsciously curled at the corner of Lin Feng's mouth.

"Alright, I accept this matter."

Seeing Lin Feng agree, Lv Luo and the other's faces lit up with joy.

Afterward, Lv Luo explained in detail to Lin Feng the process and rules of this Three Sects Competition.

It was nothing more than competitions between Foundation Establishment and Core Formation Disciples, and finally, sparring among Nascent Soul Elders.

After seeing them off, Lin Feng stood on the mountaintop, facing the mountain wind, his Divine Sense silently spreading out.

His Divine Sense swept around and quickly captured Mo Fengwu's aura on another peak.

White Phoenix Peak.

Lin Feng remembered, that was Fairy Song Yu's peak.

Just as he was about to move and see how that girl was doing, a voice, tinged with a hint of resentment, suddenly came from behind him.

"Peak Master..."

Lin Feng turned around.

He saw a woman dressed in a light green silk dress, standing gracefully not far behind him, her large, watery eyes looking at him with a mixture of apprehension and grievance.

It was Liu Yu.

Uh...

He remembered now, ever since he brought this woman back to Taibai Peak, he seemed to have... never summoned her again.

He had merely arranged a random Immortal Cave for her, given her some Medicinal Pills, and then forgotten about her.

Looking at her now, she had actually Cultivated to Early Stage Core Formation, relying on the Medicinal Pills he had casually given her back then.

Liu Yu saw Lin Feng looking at her, not speaking for a long time, and her heart grew even more nervous. Her pearly teeth lightly bit her lower lip, and her fingers nervously twisted the corner of her clothes.

"Peak Master... did Liu Yu disturb you?" Her voice was as faint as a mosquito's buzz.
