Chapter 139: Gift of Dan

ome up the mountain to investigate. All I need to do is stay in the crater and wait, with an excuse ready to explain my absence.> Most importantly, don't worry about the Jade Buddha being exposed.So,...The Nine Stars Nation, the capital city.

Tianxing Street was clearly divided between rich and poor on its east and west sides. The west side was frequented by officials, dignitaries, wealthy families, with grand mansions, high walls, and vermilion gates. The glazed tiles shimmered, and each house displayed a lavish grandeur.

The farther you go, the more affluent it becomes. In areas close to the palace, there are even gardens covering dozens of acres, which are the residences of princes and nobles.

The household minister's residence was only three courtyards deep, appearing unusually shabby among these grand mansions.

>

After the official retired, his mansion was sold to a family and hung with a plaque that read "Song Residence."

However, this household was rather mysterious, keeping to themselves and being very low-key. They didn't even have many servants, and on ordinary days, it was the servants who went out to buy supplies.

However, the people who could afford to live in this area were not easy to mess with, and no one dared to provoke them for no reason.

Qin Sang also didn't expect that Song Yinshi wouldn't crave pleasure at all. She even kept the house they had hastily found before, only making some simple repairs. The gold and silver Qin Sang left for Song Yinshi was a huge sum. Even without starting a business, it could guarantee prosperity for generations to come.

He probably has a higher view after seeing the celestial beings at Yuefang Market.

Qin Sang walked to the Song mansion and knocked on the gate.

With a creak, the door swung open from inside. A young attendant stuck his head out and, seeing Qin Sang for the first time, looked at him with some apprehension and asked, "Excuse me, sir, who are you looking for"

Qin Sang smiled and said, "I am a friend of your master. My surname is Qin. Please trouble the young sir to inform him that an old friend has come down from the mountain and wishes to see him."

The little servant eyed Qin Sang with suspicion, “Please wait a moment, young master.”

Not long after, hurried footsteps were heard from inside. Song Ying rushed out and saw that it was Qin Sang, her face instantly filled with surprise. She hurriedly opened the front door.

“This servant girl has met Qin...young master.”

Qin Sang glanced at Song Ying and found that this woman's complexion was much better than when they first met at the Wen Yue Fang market. She was plump, graceful, and should have given birth already.

As the two of them walked towards the main hall, chatting away, a strange cry came from the inner courtyard. A little boy, only two or three years old, wearing a small diaper, stumbled out. Behind him hurried a nanny with an anxious expression on her face.

"Mother! Mother!"

The little boy, in a milky voice, rushed into Song Ying's arms and looked curiously at the unfamiliar Qin Sang.

The wet nurse looked frightened, "Forgive me, Madam. The young master..."

Song Ying shook her head, motioning for the others to retreat. She lovingly picked up the little boy and looked at Qin Sang with hopeful eyes. "Young Master Qin, this is my child. My husband and I named him Song Chengxian. Chengxian, call Mr.Qin."

The more Song Yingyue urged him, the tighter the little boy's lips became, refusing to speak.

Qin Sang smiled nonchalantly, knowing what Song Ying was expecting. He came here this time just to fulfill his promise.

At Shaohua Mountain, when new disciples are recruited each time, disciples at the Foundation Establishment stage have one recommendation quota, allowing them to recommend one person to join. However, the recommended person must also meet the requirements of the sect.

Qin Sang's trip was to see how talented the descendants of Song Ying were. If they had good talent, he would use this opportunity for them. After all, without the Sword Intent Precepts of the Song family, he couldn't have achieved what he is today, not to mention that he and Song Ying already had a contract.

In Song Ying's expectant gaze, Qin Sang stepped forward, placing her fingers on the young boy's arm.

After carefully checking, Qin Sang raised his head and glanced at Song Ying, asking her to call the wet nurse over to take the child away. He then said in a low voice, "Four spiritual roots of gold, wood, water, and earth."

Song Ying's expression was mixed with joy and sorrow, her eyes dimmed slightly.

She learned about the meaning of the four spiritual roots from growing up in Yuefang Market. She understood that even if she cultivated immortality, it would be impossible to achieve much. Without the sword intent and precepts, Shaohua Mountain would never accept a disciple like her.

“Qin Shangxian…”

Song Ying wanted to speak but hesitated.

>

Qin Sang sighed inwardly, knowing that Song Ying wanted him to take her as a disciple. But he himself was barely surviving each day, where would he have the energy to train an apprentice

>

But there was a previous agreement. Qin Sang thought for a moment and took out a jade bottle from his pouch, along with Gu Yuan's short sword and the Shui Xin Bamboo cushion. He handed them to Song Ying and said: "It's not possible to lead him into Mount Shao Hua, but we had made an agreement beforehand, and I will keep my word. When Song Chengxian matures, your family's five secret martial arts techniques, excluding the , he can choose any one to cultivate. This cushion can help him enter meditation and calm his mind. If he has a deep predestined relationship, perhaps he may achieve something in the future...This elixir is a foundation-building pill, consider it a gift for him. I have already left a restriction on the jade bottle. As long as he doesn't open it without authorization, there's no need to worry about the medicinal properties being lost."

After breaking through the Qi Refining Stage, the efficacy of the Shui Xin Zhu Pu Tuan greatly diminished, being barely useful. The short sword, however, was a top-tier magic weapon among low-grade ones, sufficient for a low-level cultivator to carry with them.

"Foundation-building Pill!"

Song Yings beautiful eyes widened in shock, she exclaimed in surprise, staring incredulously at the jade bottle in her hand. Suddenly, she remembered what her parents and brother had told her about the Qi-Foundation Pill – it looked exactly like this.

At that time, both parents and elder brother were full of envy.

Having been exposed to cultivators since childhood, Song Ying naturally knew how precious a Foundation Establishment Pill was. Even powerful families in Yuefang Market couldn't find a single Foundation Establishment Pill for their descendants.

If news of a Foundation Establishment Pill were to spread, the entire market would go crazy.

The value of the Foundation Pill is definitely no less than that of Sword Intent and Legal Principles.

Song Ying held the jade bottle tightly in both hands and excitedly said, "Thank you, Immortal Qin, for giving me this elixir. Song Ying is deeply grateful. I will have Chengxian come kowtow to you immediately."

"Until we meet again."

Qin Sang waved his hand, his figure flashed, and disappeared.

After resolving the karmic ties with the Song family, Qin Sang rode the Flying Sky Chariot straight to the depths of Yun Cang Great Marsh. She released the Spirit Bird and Golden-Eyed Serpent, searching for ten days within the marsh. They did indeed find two spirit veins, but not even a suitable spirit eye for a cave dwelling, let alone a spirit spring.

Qin Sang had no choice but to release the two spirit beasts, allowing them to return to Shaohu Mountain on their own, and then flew towards Guyuanguo.

Having set up the Huilong Temple, Qin Sang flew back to the deserted island. With his divine sense sweeping over it, he found no trace of any cultivator having broken into his cave dwelling. He then opened the formation and walked inside.

After removing the formations left by the bamboo demon, Qin Sang set up the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Formation with its flags. He walked to the pond in the cave dwelling and took out the jade box containing the nine Illusory Heavenly Orchids.

At first, when Zhao Yan uprooted the Jiuhua Tianlan, the roots of the medicinal herb were originally pure white, but now they faintly showed signs of withering and yellowing. The leaves and petals also curled up slightly.

Qin Sang reached out and took the Jiuhua Tianlan from the jade box, dipping its roots into the spirit spring. Then, he suddenly felt a weight in his palm, and the Jiuhua Tianlan sank into the spring on its own.

The spring was only a thin layer, and the Nine Illusion Heaven Orchid could only spread its roots in the pool, covering a large area.

>

The leaves of the Jiuhua Tianlan immediately unfolded, and its petals seemed to have absorbed a touch more moisture. Qin Sang had set up a barrier to prevent the medicinal properties from leaking out. He crouched by the pool, gazing at it repeatedly, a hopeful smile appearing on his face.in Sang's shoulder to watch the show.Qin Sang nodded to the two-headed hound and darted into the island.>Just in case, Qin Sang first took out the Ten Directions Yama Banner and then sacrificed the eb...
