太平 City, First District, Dao Treasure Pavilion.
Chen Changsheng sat in front of the Yin-Yang Cauldron, his hands forming complex Dao seals. Wisps of Phoenix True Fire surged into the cauldron, and rare metals suspended around him flew in one after another with his gestures.
Inside the Yin-Yang Cauldron, the Ninefold Yellow Springs Sword and the Dragon Elephant Sky-Suppressing Halberd floated on the left and right, respectively.
The Ninefold Yellow Springs Sword endured the extreme cold of Yin, while the Dragon Elephant Sky-Suppressing Halberd withstood the extreme heat of Yang.
Phoenix True Fire melted the metals into liquid, which was then poured onto the two magical treasures, like layers of gold leaf being applied. The treasures shimmered and trembled slightly within the cauldron.
At this moment, Dao seals were affixed, and the trembling of the treasures subsided.
Under Chen Changsheng's refining techniques, the two magical treasures gradually advanced to Nascent Soul level, bursting forth with dazzling immortal light!
"For you two, I've spent a lot of money and time."
Chen Changsheng said with a wry smile.
The points and spirit stones he had accumulated over the years were all spent on these magical treasures. The materials for upgrading magical treasures were not cheap.
A single Nascent Soul magical treasure could empty the entire fortune of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
The Ninefold Yellow Springs Sword and the Dragon Elephant Sky-Suppressing Halberd shook simultaneously, responding to his emotional words, and he could vaguely feel the treasures conveying their gratitude to him.
Magical treasures possessed spirituality, which was why they were rare and powerful. At times, Chen Changsheng didn't even need to control them; they would suppress enemies on their own.
This was something that magical tools could not compare to!
After putting away the magical treasures, Chen Changsheng walked out of the secret chamber.
The plump and graceful Yu Niang stood guard at the door, bowing slightly and saying, "Young Master, there is a letter here from a second-generation elder of the Ancient Immortal Dao lineage."
Chen Changsheng raised his eyebrows slightly, curiously opening the envelope.
In this day and age, anyone who still liked using envelopes was definitely an enigma.
Moreover, the sender was an elder of the Ancient Immortal Dao lineage. Wouldn't it be better to just send a private message? What was the point of using a letter?
Sure enough, the content of the letter was intriguing.
【Elder Chen, a few of us second-generation elders have something we'd like to discuss with you. We will be waiting for you at the Dragon Tiger Manor in the Fifth District.】
Chen Changsheng rubbed his chin and directly burned the letter in his hand to ashes.
"What should we eat tonight?"
"Young Master, aren't you going to the banquet?"
"Attend a ghost banquet? That's just bizarre."
Chen Changsheng didn't care about the content of the letter, but he had a vague guess in his mind.
Because the Dragon Tiger Manor in the Fifth District was Jiang Xu's sect!
【Name: Jiang Xu】
【Gender: Male】
【Aptitude: High Grade】
【Cultivation: Mid-stage Nascent Soul】
This person did not have a good relationship with him. During Luo Liuxi's inauguration ceremony as the Palace Master of Myriad Hands Palace, he妄想 tried to challenge his authority and was eventually suppressed by Luo Liuxi and kicked out of Myriad Hands Palace.
Jiang Xu's Dragon Tiger Manor was angry but dared not speak out. For a time, its relationship with the Ancient Immortal Dao lineage was extremely strained.
However, more than a hundred years had passed, and this grievance had gradually faded from people's memories, but Jiang Xu himself and the elders of Dragon Tiger Manor would not forget.
The other party did not reveal their identity in the letter, but the location was chosen to be Dragon Tiger Manor, indicating that Jiang Xu was definitely present, and perhaps even the organizer of the gathering.
Chen Changsheng put his arm around Yu Niang's slender waist and opened the chat group as he walked, asking Luo Liuxi and the others if they had received an invitation to the second-generation elders' gathering.
The replies were all negative.
In other words, the second-generation elders had only invited him.
"Jiang Xu is joining forces with the second-generation elders to kill me for revenge?"
Chen Changsheng did not attend the banquet, instead accompanying Yu Niang and Miao Miao as they wandered and strolled around the city, returning home in the evening to continue their fun and frolics, thoroughly enjoying themselves.
Several days passed, and the news of Chen Changsheng's seclusion ending naturally spread.
Jiang Xu and the others' expressions were somewhat unsightly upon learning of this, not expecting the other party to be so arrogant, ignoring the letter they had sent.
They had been waiting here for several days in vain, like fools.
"What a Chen Elder, he doesn't put us second-generation elders in his eyes at all!" Jiang Xu clenched his fist, his face slightly gloomy.
Nalan Hongjing crossed her arms, saying calmly, "I suggest sending him a private message. We are all group members; using letters is indeed a bit impolite."
Zhang Shaoyuan nodded with a smile, "I agree with Fellow Daoist Nalan's words."
"You agree with everything she says. Can't you have some of your own opinions?"
Jiang Xu looked at Zhang Shaoyuan with a displeased expression.
Previously, he had thought that the other party shared his ambitions, but after interacting more, he realized that this guy only catered to Nalan Hongjing. No one would believe that he didn't have feelings for her.
Zhang Shaoyuan's smile remained unchanged, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, don't be agitated. Haste makes waste. How about we send a private message to ask?"
"Who should send the private message? He definitely won't reply to me. Moreover, I think the main reason he's not coming is because you chose the gathering location to be my Dragon Tiger Manor!" Jiang Xu said in an unhappy tone.
Zhen Yue carefully opened her mouth, "How about... I send Elder Chen a private message to ask?"
Everyone's gaze turned, all revealing approving looks.
Such a thorny matter, yet there was actually someone willing to take it on.
"Fellow Daoist Zhen is indeed sensible. Then let you send a private message, just say that we have prepared excellent delicacies and want to discuss with Elder Chen the matter of the Immortal Alliance's shared longevity." Zhang Shaoyuan smiled.
These words made the corner of Jiang Xu's mouth twitch slightly.
What do you mean by Fellow Daoist Zhen being sensible? Are you implying that I am being unreasonable?
Zhen Yue nodded and sent a private message according to Zhang Shaoyuan's words, quietly waiting for Chen Changsheng's reply.
Chen Changsheng, who was joyfully entertaining himself in the room, simply had no time to look at private messages. Full of energy, he entertained his beauties until the morning sun gradually rose.
The room was filled with smooth, fair skin, and the captivating scene made one's blood boil. Through the hazy bead curtains, one could see graceful and exquisite curves, and a charming fragrance filled the air.
Yu Niang and Miao Miao had already fallen into a deep sleep, their exquisite and delicate bodies emitting a crystal-clear white light.
The surrounding spiritual energy gathered towards the two women on its own, like a greedy abyss devouring it.
Chen Changsheng walked out of the room with a comfortable feeling all over his body, gently closing the door without disturbing the beauties' rest.
He lay on the rocking chair, pouring himself a cup of Four Symbols Tea, appreciating the morning light illuminating every inch of the magnificent mountains and rivers.
Feeling comfortable, he finally opened the chat group system and checked the private messages that had interrupted his performance.
"Second-generation Elder Zhen Yue..."
"Inviting me to a feast of delicacies? Discussing the topic of the Immortal Alliance's shared longevity?"
"These second-generation elders are a bit restless. It seems necessary to introduce third-generation elders."
Chen Changsheng chuckled to himself, and smoothly clicked on Zhen Yue's personal information.
