Chapter 73 Attending the Banquet
After Liu Qinghuan and Bai Lin's small gathering broke up, he returned to Zizhu Courtyard in deep thought.
The information obtained from Lin Guang today is very important, the sect competition and the subsequent secret trial. But to participate in these two things, he had to buy some new magic weapons. Now that his cultivation level is high, some of the previous magic weapons are no longer applicable, especially the soul-stirring bell, which is too low-grade and has extremely limited effect on high-level qi-training monks.
He took out the storage bag and counted the contents. In the past few years, he didn't have many spiritual stones, but he had saved a lot of spiritual pills. There are still hundreds of them left, and he has refined many spiritual pills.
In the next few days, Liu Qinghuan made several trips to the sect trading workshop and market, and bought a lot of seeds used to cast wood spells. During the past few years of seclusion, he also practiced various wood spells. After that, I found a pair of wind boots that can increase speed. As for other magic weapons, I haven't been satisfied with them yet.
While he was busy with various trivial matters, Qu Yunhe came to visit.
"Junior Brother Liu is not kind!" Qu Yunhe fell into the Zizhu Courtyard and expressed his dissatisfaction loudly: "I have been in seclusion for five years, and I couldn't find anyone to drink with. If I hadn't received your message, I wouldn't have known that you had already Out of quarantine."
Seeing that he had reached the eighth level of Qi training, Qu Yunhe shouted three times: "Junior brother is really diligent. He has been promoted to the eighth level of Qi training in just a few years. Congratulations!"
"I just want to congratulate Senior Brother Qu on his successful foundation building. From now on, he is one step closer to the great road!" Liu Qinghuan bowed his hands and saluted: "Speaking of which, I should have been the one to visit Senior Brother, but Senior Brother got there first!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, Qu Yunhe said: "Since Junior Brother Liu went into seclusion, I have been busy with cultivation, and I haven't had a good drink in several years. I remember that I had a good drink with Junior Brother last time, and it was very enjoyable. Today I want to have a drink with my brother."
Liu Qinghuan placed the food and wine on the table, and Qu Yunhe said, "Speaking of which, I came to see my junior brother today because I have something to do."
"Huh?" Liu Qinghuan put down his wine glass and looked at him.
"My friends are going to hold a celebration banquet for me, and today I'm here specifically to deliver invitations." He took out a golden post from his arms and handed it over.
Liu Qinghuan took it and said with a smile: "Even if senior brother doesn't send the invitation, I will still join in the excitement and gain knowledge along the way."
"Hahaha." Qu Yunhe laughed: "It's just that we haven't gotten together for a long time, so we just thought of a reason to get together."
He didn't stay long this time. He thought he was busy with things, so he left after a round of drinks.
Three days later, Liu Qinghuan made an appointment with Lin Guang and Bai Fengming, and the three of them appeared at the foot of Tianxing Peak.
This is Liu Qinghuan's first time to come to Tianxing Peak. Different from the purity of Zhulin Mountain, Tianxing Peak has many disciples, so there are also many houses hidden under the green pines and cypresses.
They flew all the way to Qu Yunhe's Qiongxinyuan. The person who helped greet the guests at the door was Zhou Kunjian. When he saw the three of them, he immediately greeted them: "Junior Brother Lin, Junior Brother Bai, and Junior Brother Liu, I have not come far to greet you. Please forgive me!"
The three of them said they didn't dare. After greeting each other, Zhou Kun simply called a young disciple at the third level of Qi training: "You three junior brothers, please come in and take a rest."
The three of them followed the young disciple into Qiongxinyuan. Liu Qinghuan walked along, thinking that it was no wonder that Lin Guanghui praised Qiongxin Courtyard so much in the first place. The layout of the entire courtyard should have been specially designed, elegant and grand. Along the way, we caressed flowers and willows, crossed bridges and crossed water. The buildings were exquisite and beautiful, there were rockeries and rocks, small bridges and flowing water, and all kinds of exotic flowers and plants were dotted among them. It was indeed worthy of the word "Qiong".
They were led to a waterside pavilion facing the lake to wait. At this time, there were quite a few people here. They were dressed in various styles, and there were many beautiful female cultivators.
Most of them were in the Qi training stage, but there were also many in the Foundation building stage sitting on stone chairs by the lake, talking to the people around them.
"So many people!" Bai Fengming exclaimed in a low voice.
At first glance, those people were not ordinary disciples. When they saw the three of them coming in, there was a faint sense of arrogance in their expressions. Some of them were the most arrogant. They had magic weapons on their bodies, hands, and heads. flash of inspiration.
Lin Guang said to the two of them through voice transmission: "Most of the people that Senior Brother Qu associates with are elite disciples from various peaks, and many of them are the descendants of Master Jin Dan or Elder Yuanying."
The three of them knew that they were ordinary people and did not join in the fun in front of those people. They just stayed in a corner chatting and waiting. Lin Guang knew quite a few people there, so he introduced them one by one to Bai Liu and the others.
People kept being led here by the young disciples, and in the end the number exceeded a hundred. Liu Qinghuan guessed that most of the descendants of high-level monks from the Wenshi Sect were gathered here.
When they almost arrived, they saw a group of people approaching Qu Yunhe.
Qu Yunhe was wearing a bright red dress today, and he looked very energetic. As soon as he entered the waterside pavilion, he clasped his fists and cupped his hands at everyone and said: "Hahaha, I kept you waiting for a long time! I have disturbed everyone's Qing Dynasty because of my little things today. Please forgive me. Please bear with me!”
A male cultivator in the foundation building stage stood up and said with a smile: "Lao Qu, what are you talking about? I think you are obviously heartbroken. The bottle of Breitling Milk you gave me when I was building the foundation last time. I want to get it back." ah."
He sighed: "If I had known you were building the foundation so quickly, I wouldn't be greedy for your courtesy."
This statement caused everyone to burst into laughter. Qu Yunhe laughed and said: "You are such a bastard, how many gifts did I give you before? If I don't take back the gift today, no one will be able to leave this courtyard!"
A group of people were talking and laughing around Qu Yunhe. Bai Fengming looked a little bad and said through the voice: "What gift have you prepared? I just prepared a piece of spiritual material, which I picked up in the sea."
Lin Guang was also in a dilemma: "I have prepared a bottle of elixir that can be used in the foundation building period."
The two of them looked at Liu Qinghuan, who said calmly: "Mine is a bottle of spiritual wine. It's just a wish. We can't compare with those people. Senior Brother Qu won't blame him."
The three of them were talking when they saw the people in front of them were walking outside the water pavilion, so they quickly followed them. We arrived at a flower hall. In the hall were square tables, each piled with delicacies.
Liu Qinghuan and the other three naturally chose to sit down at the last table, and then they drank and laughed.
There was an empty space in the middle of the flower hall, and several female cultivators dressed in colorful feathers came up and danced to the wonderful fairy music that sounded from nowhere. As the gauze dances, various spiritual flowers and colorful birds appear.
Qu Yunhe dances around every table with his long sleeves and can chat and laugh with everyone. After a while, he arrived in front of Liu Qinghuan. After drinking two drinks with him, Qu Yunhe said: "Junior brother Liu, don't leave in a hurry. There will be a swap meeting at the end of the banquet as usual. If you want to participate, you can stay. Liu If you have something you want to sell, you can take it out and others will exchange it with you if they are interested."
Liu Qinghuan nodded in thanks, feeling a little moved. He wondered if he could find anything he could use, and thought about what he had in exchange.
The banquet did not end until the evening, and most people stayed. The look of anticipation on their faces indicated that the highlight was most likely to follow.
Everyone moved to a hall again. A table was placed in front of the hall, with comfortable chairs underneath. There was also steaming spiritual tea on the coffee table next to it.
The three of them, Liu Qinghuan, stayed behind, waiting for the exchange meeting to begin.
Qu Yunhe walked up to the stage, looked at the 70 or 80 people in the audience and smiled: "I know you people say you are here to congratulate me on my promotion to Foundation Establishment, but in fact it is just for this exchange meeting."
