“Thanks,” Lin Xuan cupped his fists and then walked down the stairs without hesitation.

As Lin Xuan’s figure gradually disappeared, Huang He’s eyes flashed, and a sneer hung on the corner of his mouth. How could he really give him advice when he came to the store to make trouble for no reason?

The token was real, but it was not that easy to attend the exchange. Letting him suffer a bit could be regarded as him venting his anger.

After leaving the store, Lin Xuan played with the token made of sandalwood in his hand with a playful look on his face.

With his shrewdness, how could he not sense that old man’s ulterior motives? He was afraid that this trip won’t be too easy.

However, Lin Xuan had no choice. He was determined to get the Myriad Form Grass.

In fact, Lin Xuan planned everything in the store on purpose.

After strolling in the market for so long, he didn’t see a single expert of the Core Formation Stage. The Spirit Tools sold by the stores were top-grade at most, and the situation of the medicinal materials was similar.

So Lin Xuan began to speculate that there might be a more advanced meeting specifically for masters at the Core Formation Stage. Perhaps he would find the Myriad Form Grass there.

But how could he participate?

In this unfamiliar place, what he lacked most was intelligence, and Lin Xuan estimated that only those big stores would have such information.

So he chose the Hundred Herb Hall and successfully obtained what he needed by goading others.

After he looked at the token in his hand, Lin Xuan thought for a moment, and then went into the depths of the valley according to Huang He’s instructions.

Not long after, he left the market. The scene in front of him was rather dilapidated, and the ground was full of yellow leaves. There were also many weeds growing at the height of one person, compared with the awe-inspiring market, it was like two different worlds.

But after a slight hesitation, he continued to move forward.

About half an hour later, Lin Xuan came to the end of the valley, with cliffs on both sides and no way out.

Lin Xuan took out the token and gave it a closer look. Then he walked along the foot of the mountain for more than twenty meters to the front of a bare and steep cliff.

The cliff looked unremarkable and there was nothing special about it.

However, Lin Xuan did not hesitate to reach out and put his hand on the wall.

As the Spiritual Power in his body circulated, a light cyan glow appeared on the palm of his hand.

After a short while, Lin Xuan retracted his hand, and then the mountain wall made a rumbling sound. And a hole as high as a man was exposed.

The hole was deep and bottomless, Lin Xuan released his Spiritual Sense, but it seemed to have touched some kind of restriction and bounced back.

Lin Xuan frowned, but then he seemed to have sensed something. And his expression returned to normal.

The faint sound of footsteps was heard, and a woman in her early twenties walked out.

Although this young woman was no peerless beauty, she was still quite pretty. But her cultivation base was only at the Spirit Condensation Fifth Layer.

She looked at Lin Xuan up and down. When she saw clearly that the young man’s cultivation base was at the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage, her first reaction was not an expression of respect, but rather a little surprise and pity.

Although this expression was fleeting, it was still seen by Lin Xuan.

Then she lowered her head and said in a slightly charming voice, “My name is Zhang Xiaodie. Senior, since you can find this place, you must have a token. Can I take a look? “

“Token?”

Lin Xuan was stunned and scratched his head. Showing a trace of confusion on his face, seemingly overwhelmed.

“It’s the token with the map of this place engraved on it.”

“Oh?” It was not till then that he seemed to have come to a realization. Finally, he handed the token to the lady’s hand.

The young woman’s lips slightly curled up. She took the token while revealing a trace of ridicule. After giving it an inspection, she then said, “It turns out that you were recommended by Huang He. Please follow me.”

After saying that, the woman turned around and walked with light steps, her figure swaying slightly.

“Okay?” Lin Xuan replied and quickly followed. but inadvertently, his eyes secretly glanced at the stone wall at the upper left corner.

“It seems that there’s no problem with this person.”

In a wide stone room sat six cultivators wearing yellow robes. From their appearances, they looked about thirty or forty years old. However, their cultivation base was quite extraordinary. They were all in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and two had even stepped into the False Core Stage.

In addition to their high level of Spiritual Power, they also shared one common feature: they were all sophisticated and capable.

These six people were the best of the second-generation disciples of the Heavenly Vision Sect.

Feeling that this sect’s disciples only knew how to cultivate in seclusion and knew nothing about managing the sect, the Sect Master decided to focus on cultivating several outstanding people among the second-generation disciples. The requirement was not only their cultivation base but also their understanding of worldly affairs.

He hoped that after Ning Tianyu took over as the Sect Master in the future, these disciples could become his left and right arms and help him manage the sect so that his junior brother would not follow in his own footsteps. Because of him dealing with all those mundane affairs, he couldn’t focus on cultivation and missed the opportunity to fight for the Nascent Soul Stage. Which made him regret it immensely.

At this time, in front of the six people, there was a huge ball of light. In the ball of light, the scene of Lin Xuan conversing and following the young woman could be clearly displayed.

“Senior Brother is right. This kid should be fine, although it’s not easy for him to build the foundation at his age, he looks like a fool and he should not be a spy from other sects.” A yellow-faced cultivator shook his head and analyzed.

“I just don’t understand why some Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators are allowed to participate in the exchange that only experts in the Core Formation Stage can take part in.” Sitting in the back, a white-skinned, youngest looking cultivator frowned.
