"No way? Is heaven playing a joke on me?"
Gu Chenfeng said with a helpless bitter smile, "It's one thing not to have an Ice Attribute Spiritual Sword, but to end up choosing a Spirit Sword without any attribute."
The Spirit Sword Gu Chenfeng pointed to was completely black, and while it emanated a powerful aura, it was a sword with no attribute.
After a simple glance at the Spirit Sword, Gu Chenfeng sighed lightly, "Oh well, it's still better than Lingyun Sect's Treasure Sword, let's make do with it."
With that, Gu Chenfeng bit his finger, dripped blood to acknowledge the master, and absorbed the Spirit Sword into his body, then turned and left.
Outside the Wanbao Pavilion Hall.
Seeing Gu Chenfeng coming out, Lu Ming quickly stepped forward with a smile and asked, "How did it go, Junior Brother Gu? What kind of Spirit Sword did you pick?"
Gu Chenfeng waved his hand, and a black Spirit Sword hovered in front of him.
Gu Chenfeng smiled bitterly and said, "I searched all the spiritual artifacts and couldn't find an Ice Attribute Spiritual Sword, so I just picked one randomly."
"No attribute?" Lu Ming was surprised.
Gu Chenfeng shrugged and said, "For my Ice Attribute Spiritual Power, having no attribute is no different from having any other attribute spiritual power."
"That's true." Lu Ming laughed awkwardly and then said, "Junior Brother Gu, the three attributes of ice, wind, and thunder are very rare, and corresponding attribute spiritual artifacts are naturally also rare and precious."
"In our Divine Sect, counting you, only two disciples possess Ice Attribute Spiritual Power, and Uncle Qiushui is also an Ice Attribute Spiritual Power user, making three in total."
"Three people?" Gu Chenfeng was taken aback, finding it hard to believe.
The Ancient Divine Sect, after all, counts as a powerful Immortal Cultivation Sect with thousands of cultivating disciples, yet only three possess Ice Attribute Spiritual Power.
Isn't that too rare?
"Indeed." Lu Ming nodded and said, "The Sect Leader said that the three attribute spiritual powers of ice, wind, and thunder are the Power of Heaven and Earth, each very powerful and able to suppress the Five Elements Attribute Spiritual Power, hence they are extremely rare."
"I see." Gu Chenfeng nodded in understanding.
"By the way, Elder Liu asked me to give you these spirit stones and Spiritual Power Pills. Let's hurry so Senior Brother Yang and the others don't wait too long." Lu Ming handed the spirit stones and elixirs to Gu Chenfeng, and the two rushed towards the mountain gate.
Outside the Divine Sect's mountain gate.
"Choosing a Spirit Sword shouldn't take this long, right? Why haven't they come out yet?"
"If they don't hurry up, there won't be enough time. I still want to exchange for Foundation Establishment Pill to breakthrough to the Fasting Stage."
"It's a pity that the eldest senior brother is in seclusion, or we'd surely have a great harvest today."
Two male and one female disciple paced back and forth anxiously outside the mountain gate.
Just as Yang Shan and the others were getting worried, a lithe silhouette suddenly appeared.
The newcomer was a stunning beauty in white, so beautiful it took one's breath away, like a fairy descended to the mortal world.
"Uncle Qiushui." Yang Shan and the others quickly greeted her with respect, their eyes filled with reverence.
Ling Qiushui, with her exquisite features, flashed a smile and asked, "Yang Shan, Qian Yue, where are you planning to go?"
Yang Shan clasped his fists and replied, "Uncle Qiushui, we are planning to hunt demon beasts to seize demon cores, currently waiting for Junior Brother Lu and Junior Brother Gu."
As soon as Yang Shan finished speaking,
"Senior Brother Yang, we are here." Lu Ming and Gu Chenfeng walked out of the mountain gate.
Upon seeing Uncle Qiushui, Lu Ming was startled and hurriedly paid his respects, "Disciple greets Uncle Qiushui."
Gu Chenfeng followed suit, clasping his fists and greeting, "Disciple greets Uncle Qiushui."
Her beautiful eyes glanced at the unfamiliar Gu Chenfeng, and Ling Qiushui lightly laughed and asked, "Ice Attribute Spiritual Power, are you the Gu Chenfeng with the Perfect Spirit Root?"
The news had already spread throughout the Ancient Divine Sect that a super genius with a Perfect Spirit Root had appeared in the Divine Sect.
"I am Gu Chenfeng," Gu Chenfeng replied respectfully.
"Truly an enviable spirit root, the Ancient Divine Sect has produced only one genius with an Innate Spirit Root over the years. You must cultivate well and not waste your one-in-ten-thousand spirit root," Ling Qiushui laughed softly, revealing a stunning smile.
"Disciple will certainly work hard in cultivation," Gu Chenfeng responded respectfully.
Beside him, Lu Ming softly said, "Junior Brother Gu, this is the Uncle Qiushui I mentioned earlier."
Gu Chenfeng nodded slightly, observing the stunning Ling Qiushui with his gaze, thinking, "Such an overwhelming sense of oppression, in front of her, I feel like an ant."
"Moreover, I can't discern her cultivation realm. With such a strong aura, Uncle Qiushui is likely a Nascent Soul Stage expert."
With a flick of her jade hand, Ling Qiushui produced a milky white jade flute from thin air, and as she gently blew, a clear melodious sound resonated, summoning a giant celestial crane.
"Come with me," Ling Qiushui chuckled, her graceful figure then floated onto the celestial crane.
"Huh?" Qian Yue was momentarily stunned, then quickly asked, "Uncle Qiushui, where are you taking us?"
"To Supreme Profound Mountain." Ling Qiushui's voice came from the back of the celestial crane.
"Supreme Profound Mountain!" Gu Chenfeng's brows furrowed, and his fists clenched tightly, a surge of immense anger rising in his heart.
"What? We're going to Supreme Profound Mountain?" A disciple's face changed, full of reluctance, "No way? Supreme Profound Mountain is so far, I still need thirteen more demon cores to exchange for Foundation Establishment Pill."
Lu Ming sighed lightly, with a helpless bitter smile, "I'm also eager to break through to the Fasting Stage."
"Stop complaining, we can still hunt demon beasts at Supreme Profound Mountain. Hurry onto the celestial crane, don't make Uncle Qiushui angry," Yang Shan whispered, jumping forward first.
Though the disciples had a myriad of unwillingness, they dared not defy Ling Qiushui's command.
On the back of the celestial crane.
Qian Yue, with her glistening big eyes, curiously asked Ling Qiushui, "Uncle Qiushui, what are we going to do at Supreme Profound Mountain?"
"Uncle Qiushui, we're all eager to break through the Fasting Stage, can't you find someone else? Supreme Profound Mountain is too far," a disciple asked with evident displeasure.
"Any objections?" Ling Qiushui's cold gaze swept over.
Yang Shan and the disciples were so frightened that they shivered, their hearts pounding wildly, almost forgetting that they couldn't afford to provoke this eldest lady.
"None at all! We're willing to go through hell and high water for Uncle Qiushui!"
"If Uncle Qiushui tells us to go west, we wouldn't dare go east!"
"Uncle Qiushui's orders are as sovereign as those of the Heavenly King!"
The disciples instantly stood straight, shouting in unison, their expressions filled with respect, not daring to be insolent.
Gu Chenfeng watched beside them, dumbfounded.
"Not bad on the slogans," Ling Qiushui's pretty face revealed a satisfactory smile.
"Of course," Lu Ming chuckled gleefully, "We can forget anything, but not Uncle Qiushui's slogans."
Qian Yue quickly asked with a smile, "Uncle Qiushui, what are we going to do at Supreme Profound Mountain?"
Ling Qiushui spread her jade hand and laughed lightly, "It's you who are going, I'm not."
"Uncle Qiushui's not going?"
"We're going?"
Yang Shan and Lu Ming looked at Ling Qiushui, both shocked and puzzled.
"Indeed, you are going," Ling Qiushui smiled slightly, "I need to go to the Celestial Sound Valley to rescue someone, but I need a Celestial Spirit Soul Revival Grass to restore the Soul Body."
"This herb is very rare, not found within the sect, only growing on Supreme Profound Mountain, and your task is to go there and find this herb."
"Celestial Spirit Soul Revival Grass!" Gu Chenfeng's expression shook intensely.
