Starting My Cultivation With Time Management-Chapter 835 - 73 Cloud Dream Marsh Country

Chapter 835: Chapter 73 Cloud Dream Marsh Country

At the bottom of the Demon Locking Tower has been the residence of the Long Eyebrow Immortal ever since he ceased to interfere with the Sect’s affairs.

Seeing Ling Yunpo coming to visit behind Su Jian, the old immortal’s expression turns somewhat awkward.

In the past few days, both Chi Song Immortal and Wan Xiang Immortal had sent him messages to console him, saying “don’t be too upset,” “everyone makes mistakes in judgment,” and “who could have known that a little known disciple would turn out to be the Tai Yin Sword Master?”

Such words made the Long Eyebrow Immortal unbearably embarrassed.

As for being little known, that’s not true at all. Before the identity of Tai Yin Suming Sword came to light, Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu, with their extraordinary swordsmanship and extensive experience in Magical Competitions, had already stood out among many major competitions.

The real issue was that the Long Eyebrow Immortal was too stubborn by nature, and due to the Su Jian issue, he unfairly projected his anger onto An Zhisu, thus completely ignoring the outstanding qualities of the two.

As an Immortal, he did indeed have the authority to do so; after all, no matter how talented the two were, they were merely Golden Core True Persons.

With An Zhisu’s advancement to Second Grade Golden Core, the Long Eyebrow Immortal had begun to see her in a new light, and correspondingly, he looked down on Ling Yunpo even more, believing him to have hindered his disciple and beloved daughter in the pursuit of Qing Heng True Person’s teachings, which he found detestable… To his surprise, Ling Yunpo suddenly pulled off a coup by becoming the Tai Yin Sword Master, slapping the Immortal’s face like a giant backhand.

From then on, even though the Long Eyebrow Immortal still held prejudice against Qing Heng True Person, he no longer had the face to intervene arbitrarily anymore.

After all, some Shushan Sect disciples had been grumbling in private, saying “the Immortal underestimated An Zhisu, yet she is a Second Grade Golden Core,” “he underestimated Ling Yunpo, and now he is the Tai Yin Sword Master,” “I wonder who he will underestimate next.” When these words reached the Long Eyebrow Immortal’s ears, he almost couldn’t bear the shame.

Now that Ling Yunpo had also come, the Long Eyebrow Immortal forced a strained smile and simply asked Su Jian:

“What brings you here?”

“Master.” Su Jian quietly explained Ling Yunpo’s request and concluded, “In summary, if we can find such magical artifacts, my disciple will be able to more easily bring out the strength of the Tai Yin Suming Sword.”

Ling Yunpo was utterly speechless: This really isn’t what I asked for! I was just asking if such treasures exist… Hey, what are you doing!

“I see.” Thinking this was a good opportunity to mend their relationship, the Long Eyebrow Immortal quickly replied, “If this treasure is useful for Qing Heng True Person, then our Shushan Sect will mobilize all hands to find it!”

“I will write to a few trustworthy old friends to see if they have any similar leads.”

Having said that, the Long Eyebrow Immortal waved his sleeve, releasing countless Message-Conveying Flying Swords that flew off in all directions.

Su Jian hurriedly pulled Ling Yunpo with him to offer thanks.

After leaving the Demon Locking Tower, Su Jian comforted him:

“Now that the Immortal is helping, there will surely be a good outcome, don’t worry about it and return to your peak to cultivate.”

Ling Yunpo had no response, thinking that there would certainly be an outcome, but whether it would be a good one was another story.

I… I really didn’t expect it to turn out like this!

Back at Qingluo Peak, Ling Yunpo went to find Senior Sister An and recounted what had happened to her.

“That’s great indeed.” An Zhisu said joyfully, “If we can find the corresponding treasure, your power should greatly increase, right?”

Not just greatly increase, it’s practically like a cheat code for invincibility! I’m about to steal Qiu Changtian’s Invincible Character Setting!

Ling Yunpo had a continual stream of complaints in his heart, but he couldn’t openly discuss it with his caring Senior Sister, so he had to silently keep it to himself.

Several days later, news indeed came from Long Eyebrow Immortal, who said that a friend had found fragments in ancient texts implying the possible existence of something called the “Yunmeng Sword Scabbard” in Marsh Country. This artifact would allow the Sword Master to infuse True Yuan into it beforehand, which could then be used to activate the Flying Sword during battle.

The subtlety here lies in that the concentration of True Yuan from immortals vastly surpasses that of Golden Core Cultivators, hence if the True Yuan is infused by an immortal, it could fulfill the demanding requirements to activate the Tai Yin Summoning Sword.

Upon receiving the message, Long Eyebrow Immortal treasured it like a precious find, promptly summoning Su Jian, Ling Yunpo, and An Zhisu to notify them of this matter.

“If that is the case, I will issue an order for our disciples to fully commit to the search for traces of Marsh Country,” said Su Jian.

“And do not make it too conspicuous,” An Zhisu suddenly interjected, “Be cautious of leaking the information.”

“Of course,” Su Jian nodded in agreement.

If the Yunmeng Sword Scabbard truly exists, its significance to the Tai Yin Sword Master and the entire Shushan would be self-evident.

If the Demon Cult were to learn of this, they would certainly go to all lengths to interfere and prevent Shushan from obtaining such a treasure.

Ling Yunpo remained expressionless, thinking to himself that the Demon Cult had not only learned of this long ago, but Wei Dongliu had even readied his elite forces, preparing to ambush you at any moment!

Su Jian here was completely unaware, simply quickly tallying up his people to search for the traces of Marsh Country.

About half a month later, they finally received exhilarating news:

The clues to Marsh Country have been found!

This time, the merit belonged to an outer sect disciple, who claimed that before he had joined Shushan, while living in the northern part of Jingzhou in his hometown, he had drowned in a river as a child and accidentally entered a mysterious marsh country filled with dangers and demons everywhere.

Not daring to venture too far, he could only stubbornly swim in the pond from his original journey, managing to return to Jingzhou safely.

Shushan sent people, following the clues provided by the outer sect disciple, to find the river where he had nearly drowned.

Strangely, they found no trace of any secret realm’s entrance.

However, according to the nearby fishing village, this river was indeed somewhat eerie; in earlier years, there were frequent reports of people drowning here and mysteriously disappearing without a trace, even their bodies were never found, hence the villagers nearly all avoided this place.

After understanding the situation, Shushan went to Qingzhou to invite the Master of Art Calculation, Jian Buyan, to help explore the way to open the secret realm.

In the modern Cultivation Realm, there are not many cultivators who excel in Art Calculation, needless to say, old masters like the Diviner Jian Buyan. It was rumored that Qing Heng True Person from Yuqing View was also adept in this area.

However, Shushan demanded strict confidentiality this time and could not reveal any information to Yuqing View, thus the idea of seeking help from Qing Heng True Person was also rejected.

Jian Buyan was brought to Shushan, and Su Jian quickly assembled his team: several Nascent Soul Elders, many Golden Core True Persons, as well as Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu, to accompany Jian Buyan to the northern plains of Jingzhou.

The group arrived at the northern plains of Jingzhou and located the problematic river. The vicinity was all jungle, with the river flowing between undulating hills, everything seemed quite ordinary at a glance.

“This terrain of mountains and rivers is quite interesting,” said Jian Buyan.

“May I ask Senior, what is interesting here?” Ling Yunpo asked with curiosity.

“Simply put, the normal transformations of the sea into mulberry fields couldn’t have produced such topography,” said Jian Buyan with a smile, “It feels as if a clumsily-skilled painter took this vast land as a canvas and forcibly drew upon it.”
