Chapter 71: Lovesickness and the Tomb
After solving the problem of Qingtan's inability to practice, life became much more leisurely. With the help of the Blood Wolf Gang's many elixirs and Yang Yuan Dan, the cultivation of everyone in the Lin family was steadily improving.
Two months later, Lin Zhentian and Lin Xiao successively reached the small perfection of Yuandan Realm, Lincoln and Lin Mang broke through to the small Yuandan Realm together, and even Lin Hong and Lin Xia both entered the Tianyuan Realm.
Lin Dong finally caught up with Lin Changqiang and reached the level of a Four-Seal Talisman Master and the Great Perfection of the Yuan Dan Realm. Of course, he might be left behind again soon.
"The spiritual medicine I purchased last time has been used up. It's time to go to the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce again." After absorbing the last pill, Lin Dong sighed and opened his eyes. "Although I can directly absorb the Yang Yuan Pill, it turns out that the pills extracted from spiritual medicine are more efficient."
Seeing Lin Dong's unsatisfied look, Lin Changqiang smiled and stood up.
"More than two months have passed. I think they should have acquired the sixth-grade spiritual medicine. If that doesn't work, we can just use the fifth-grade spiritual medicine. At the very least, it's better than the Yang Yuan Pill."
Lin Dong nodded, and then the two of them said no more, walked out of the Lin family and headed quickly towards the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce.
Walking on the bustling street, Lin Dong suddenly frowned. He could feel that there seemed to be many more outsiders in Yancheng, and the aura of these people was quite strong. Lin Changqiang, who was standing aside, had a gleam in his eyes and soon realized that the tomb was about to be opened.
Today, Lin Changqiang and Lin Dong's status in Yancheng is no longer what it used to be. Therefore, as soon as the two of them stepped into the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, they were respectfully invited to Xuan Su's room by the maid.
"You two young masters are really like a dragon that can only be seen from head to tail. You only come to me when you need spiritual medicine."
In the study, Xuan Su hid her face with a fan and smiled, rolled her eyes at the two of them, then stood up slowly. Her elegant cheongsam showed off her curves, and her every frown and smile was full of charm. Even Lin Changqiang, who had seen countless people in his previous life, couldn't help but secretly sigh at her beauty.
"Sister Su, you're joking." Lin Dong smiled awkwardly, "By the way, Sister Su, is there any news about the sixth-grade spiritual medicine?"
Xuan Su snorted lightly, showing a slightly smug expression of "as expected", then she smiled brightly and nodded.
"There is a sixth-grade spiritual medicine that was originally considered the bottom of the auction. However, since the two gentlemen need it, we naturally bought it directly after discussing with the seller."
While chatting and laughing, Xuan Su clapped her hands lightly, and soon a maid came in holding a jade plate. The jade plate was covered with a red brocade cloth, but even so, the two could clearly feel the rich energy in it.
The maid carefully lifted the red cloth, revealing an open jade box, and a faint fragrance filled the air.
Inside the jade box is a fist-sized, round, dark red fruit like a pearl. There are some natural lines on the surface of the fruit, which looks extremely strange.
“Sixth-grade elixir, Acacia Heartbreak Red!” Looking at this dark red fruit, Lin Dong’s eyes were filled with joy.
"My two lords, the price of this Acacia Heartbroken Red has reached 60,000 Yang Yuan Stones, which is ten times the price of a fifth-grade spiritual medicine."
“It’s just 6,000 Yang Yuan Pills.” Lin Changqiang smiled and shook his head. Right now, the thing that he and Lin Dong lacked the most was money. “Of the two Qiankun bags, the one with 6,000 Yang Yuan Pills is for the cost of this spiritual medicine, and the one with 1,000 Yang Yuan Pills is our reward for the long-term support of the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce.”
Looking at the two Qiankun bags handed over by Lin Changqiang, Xuan Su slightly parted her red lips, stared at him blankly for a while, then blinked and took the Qiankun bags with a smile.
"Xuan Suxin appreciates the kindness of Master Changqiang, but there is really no need to reward you. You two masters are also the sponsors of my Wanjin Chamber of Commerce. Why should you ask for a reward for doing a little thing for your own people? I just hope that when my Wanjin Chamber of Commerce encounters a crisis in the future, you two masters can lend a helping hand."
In Lin Dong's surprised eyes, Xuan Su gently pushed back one of the Qiankun bags. Lin Changqiang was a little helpless, because he really didn't want to owe others a favor. The three of them exchanged a few more pleasantries, and Lin Changqiang and Lin Dong were ready to go home. But just when the two were about to leave, Xuan Su seemed to suddenly remember something, raised her eyebrows, and called them to stop.
"My two lords, do you know about a major event that happened in Tiandu County recently?"
Hearing this, Lin Dong immediately thought of the sudden increase in the number of outsiders in Yancheng, and couldn't help but be curious: "Manager Su, what happened?"
“Do you know the Tianyan Mountains that connect Yancheng and several nearby cities?” Seeing Lin Dong asking curiously, Xuan Su was very satisfied and immediately said mysteriously, “Someone discovered a tomb in the Tianyan Mountains!”
"Tomb? Whose is it?"
Lin Dong's eyes lit up. Discovering the tomb was not a big deal. After all, the Profound Sky Continent was vast and had a long history. Strong men died and tombs were discovered almost every moment. But the tomb that Xuan Su cared about so much must have an extraordinary owner.
"That ancient tomb is very old. It is said that it was left by a powerful person in the Nirvana Realm."
"Nirvana?!"
These three simple words shocked Lin Dong immensely.
Nirvana realm is extremely rare in the entire Great Yan Dynasty. Every strong person in Nirvana realm has an extraordinary status and a great reputation. Even the patriarch of the Lin family, the patriarch of the Lin clan, is only in the Creation realm.
"It is indeed unimaginable." Xuan Su nodded with emotion, "According to the news from our Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, countless strong men from the entire Tiandu County have heard the news and come here. Even the four major clans of the Great Yan Dynasty have sent people."
“No wonder there are so many powerful people in Yancheng, that’s why.” Lin Dong suddenly realized.
"If you two are interested, you can go and give it a try. I think with your strength, even if you can't get the inheritance of that Nirvana Realm expert, you can still gain a lot."
"Dong, congratulations to the host, triggering the side quest - Showing off your talents:
As the overlord of Yancheng, how can I let outsiders take all the credit? Please make sure to defeat at least one opponent at the Formation Realm or above in the upcoming trip to the tomb.
Defeating 1-2 opponents will award two chances to draw a prize.
Defeating 3-4 opponents will reward you with four double experience cards.
Defeat 5 or more enemies and you will be rewarded with Sun Ce's passive skill - Excitement: When you fight with a target whose cultivation is at least one small realm higher than yours, your ability to resist attacks increases by %, and your Yuanli and Mental Power increase by %. "
Lin Changqiang and Lin Dong looked at each other. At this moment, both of them were filled with heroic spirit.
"If we, brothers, come together, how can we be the enemy?"
I played Three Kingdoms and Landlord today and went bankrupt again.
