A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 582: Chapter 473: Chance Encounter in Nocturnal City (Part 3)

A faint blush appeared on Jiang Qingfeng’s face, her heart stirred, and the aura around her became hard to contain. A bone-chilling, cold, and fierce Foundation Establishment Spiritual Pressure surged forth, and a layer of mist instantly formed in the air around her.

She had successfully achieved Foundation Establishment Perfection, establishing her Dao Foundation with the Ice Technique, and had become a Foundation Establishment Feather Scholar!

With her sister’s successful Foundation Establishment, Jiang Baitao naturally felt joyous and envious. She counted on her fingers; she was now at the ninth level of Qi Cultivation and needed another twelve or thirteen years to reach Qi Cultivation Perfection.

By that time, Junior Martial Uncle Jiang from Yunshan Sect was certain to succeed in Foundation Establishment and gain miraculous Dao Patterns like those of Sect Leader Senior Brother!

As she was daydreaming, suddenly, the disciple responsible for lookout gave a whistle. Several people looked down to see faint smoke rising from a few miles outside Nocturnal City.

What’s going on?

In an instant, Wu Yan’s expression became serious, and she loudly issued orders. The two Sky Rays slowed their pace and flew side by side, while the Yunshan disciples formed into a neat formation. Several flying magical artifacts spread out from the Sky Ray as the center to stand guard.

Wang Yu also opened his pitch-black eyes and, with a flicker of his body, stood at the front of the formation.

”What’s happening?”

As he asked, the Sky Ray flapped its wings and flew directly over the smoke. Several people exclaimed and saw a young girl on the ground holding a large pile of firewood and lighting it, with thick smoke billowing upward, the pungent smell noticeable even in the air.

Seeing the Sky Ray slow down, the girl on the ground began to jump and wave her arms incessantly.

There were no spiritual power fluctuations; she was a mortal? But how would a mortal dare to halt an Immortal’s vehicle? Upon seeing a Sky Ray, she should have immediately prostrated in reverence.

”Send a team down to see the situation.”

Before Wu Yan finished speaking, Jiang Baitao yelled, ”Jia Three, come with me!”

With the escape light activated, several flying spiritual artifacts descended from the Sky Ray towards the ground.

Since advancing to Late-Stage Qi Cultivation, Jiang Baitao had become the squad leader of the Yunshan Sect’s ten-man battle team. She had been leading for nearly seven years now. Her mobility was strong, her personality cheerful and generous, and with her special status, she had managed to unite a solid team.

Jiang Qingfeng and the others watched the commotion below closely, seeing ten people descend and form a loose circle around the girl.

Judging by her figure, she seemed only about thirteen or fourteen years old. Her face was smeared with soot, making it impossible to discern her features, except for a pair of clear, black-and-white eyes.

Before Jiang Baitao could ask, the girl preemptively said, ”Ah, finally got someone to come down. Can you take me into the city?”

Jiang Baitao scrutinized her, detecting no presence of spiritual power, indicating a mortal body, so she frowned, ”Where are you from? Nocturnal City is a place for Immortals; mortals can’t enter.”

But the girl nonchalantly replied, ”They’re the ones who won’t let me in, so I’m asking for your help.”

Just as she spoke, the patrol around Nocturnal City noticed the disturbance and flew over. The team leader glanced over, seeing the feathers hanging from Jiang Baitao and the others’ arms, and was startled.

These were Yunshan Sect disciples, and the leader hanging the golden feather was a true inheritance from Yunshan Sect!

His face instantly became extremely courteous, but when his gaze fell on the girl in the center, it changed again, and he shouted, ”I clearly expelled you, yet you come back seeking death! How dare you offend the fellow Daoists of Yunshan Sect; arrest her!”

The patrol members immediately drew their swords, about to capture the girl.

Jiang Baitao hadn’t yet had time to stop them when the girl irritably stomped her foot.

”Oh, it’s so annoying! Who knew living like a mortal for a day would be so hard?”

Her originally black hair suddenly turned into ice crystal-like pale blue, and the mighty Golden Core Spiritual Pressure emanated from her, shooting skyward, and all the cultivators were instantly rendered speechless with terror.

A Golden Core; this girl had concealed her spiritual pressure and was a Golden Core Master!
