Chao Phraya city.

The capital of the Chao Phraya Prefecture was adjacent to the Chao Phraya River, one of the most famous rivers in the Ryukyu Empire.

It was rumored that before the city was built, it was originally a swamp full of water and grass.

Because the Imperial court had taken a fancy to this location, it was convenient for them to control the Chao Phraya County. Hence, they had dispatched high level cultivators to use their great powers to drain most of the accumulated water, move the mountains and fill them with soil. Only then did they manage to build this majestic County city.

However, for the convenience of the people, there were still many small rivers, streams and ponds in the Chao Phraya city ...

As far as the eye could see, the streets were packed with people, and the water was bustling and lively.

At this moment, at the entrance of an unremarkable small courtyard next to the stream.

The two willow trees had luxuriant branches and leaves, and thousands of green silk sashes were hanging down. As the soft wind swayed, they would occasionally brush past the white-robed female cultivator in front of the door.

This female cultivator was about twenty years old. She had snow-white skin, thin eyebrows, and long eyes. Her black hair was tied up behind her head with a long red and gold beard. There were no decorations on her body except for a golden flute with a colorful silk ribbon on her waist. Her expression was calm as she raised her hand to push aside the obstructing willow branches and knocked on the courtyard door.

The female Xiu’s knocking was neither too heavy nor too light. She stopped after two hits. After a few breaths, she continued to knock lightly three more times. Immediately after, she increased her strength and slapped five times.

“Who is it?” At this moment, a low voice came from behind the door.

&Quot; the night is clear and blue, the floating light jumps over the purple clouds. &Quot; The female cultivator said indifferently, ” I’m here to pay my respects to senior Lun Shan. &Quot;

The other party pondered for a moment and did not answer. However, the courtyard door slowly opened with a ” Kacha ” sound.

The female cultivator stepped in without hesitation. However, just as she entered the courtyard, the two doors behind her crashed into each other. Immediately after, the small courtyard that was normal a moment ago was instantly plunged into darkness!

In the darkness, countless whispers sounded ...

However, before any more changes could happen, an extremely powerful aura suddenly burst out from the female cultivator’s body and shattered the illusion. In the corridor not far away, someone grunted and walked out slowly. It was a middle-aged cultivator that was forgettable.

There was blood at the corner of his mouth, but he forced it back. He looked at the female cultivator and said in a low voice, ” “Follow me.”

Then, he turned around and walked into the main hall.

The female cultivator had a calm expression and followed closely behind.

A moment later, the two of them entered an underground secret room.

This secret room took up a large area, and the ceiling was inlaid with pearls. There were all kinds of formations set up around it, making it not dull and cramped at all. In addition, the layout was simple and elegant, making it feel like it was out of this world.

On a futon in the middle of the secret room, an old man with white hair and a white beard but a face like that of a baby was sitting.

His temperament was tranquil, and at first glance, he seemed to be just a mortal.

However, the powerful fluctuations that occasionally flashed by made people’s hearts palpitate and they almost couldn’t breathe, showing his extremely terrifying cultivation.

“You’ve appeared here. It seems that in this battle for the saintess position, our clan has still lost to the Li clan.” The old man wasn’t surprised to see the female cultivator enter. He only sighed slightly.

The female cultivator calmly made a hand seal, and soon, a glimmer of light flashed through her long golden silk. At the same time, ripples appeared around her body like water.

Not long after, the disguise was removed, and his true appearance was revealed.

The human skeleton’s Coronet had tassels hanging down, and her hair was tied up high like clouds. She was in full bloom, and her snow-white dress was burning with flames. She looked gorgeous and sharp. She was Zhou Miaoli, a core disciple of the Zhong Kong sect!

“Junior Zhou Miaoli greets senior Lun Shan.” Zhou Miaoli bowed.

The old man si honglun nodded slightly and ordered the middle-aged rogue cultivator to bring a futon for Zhou Miaoli to sit down not far away from him. Then, he started talking about serious business, ” “The clan sent you here, are you ready to take action?”

Zhou Miaoli nodded and said, ” “The clan has ordered me to follow senior’s arrangements after I come to the Chao Phraya city.”

Si honglun was not surprised. He said slowly, ” “The mission this time is extremely dangerous! Even though we’ve been planning for many years, we’re not completely confident.”

“Originally, if you had won the battle of saintess, I wouldn’t have let you take the risk.”

“But since you’ve lost to li lieyue, this matter has fallen on your head.”

“For now, this is your only way out.”

“Otherwise, your contribution wouldn’t be enough to convince most of the people in the tribe to agree to offend the new Holy maiden for you.”

Zhou Miaoli’s expression didn’t change. She said indifferently, ” “Senior, don’t worry. I will definitely live on!”

When si honglun saw this, he nodded his head. This Zhou Miaoli was indeed of the SI Hong clan’s bloodline. She was even more outstanding than he had expected!

But soon, he frowned again, Zhou Miaoli was already one of the top geniuses in terms of cultivation and temperament, and judging from her words and actions, she was by no means a lazy person. But she still lost to li lieyue of the nine Ali clan?

Was the competition for the position of saintess this intense?

He pondered for a while and continued, ” “The mission for this trip is to enter ‘minor freedom sky’. However, there is a cultivation level restriction to entering the minor freedom sky.”

“The highest is the peak of the completion level!”

&Quot; on this point, you just so happen to meet the conditions. This is also the reason why the clan sent you here. &Quot;

&Quot; therefore, the first step is to find an Alchemist identity and sneak into the ‘minor sky of freedom’! &Quot;

An Alchemist?

Hearing this, Zhou Miaoli’s expression didn’t change. She only said, ” “I don’t know how to concoct pills.”

“This old master knows.” Si honglun was not surprised by this.

Zhou Miaoli had once been groomed by the Fuguang Sihong clan to be their future Holy maiden. Outsiders might not be able to tell what she had learned and what she was good at, but as a member of the Sihong clan, si honglun was very clear about it.

He immediately said, ” therefore, I’ve already prepared a [ soul devouring life fusion technique ]. As long as I find a real Alchemist, devour his soul, and seize his life Providence, I can inherit all the memories and experience of this Alchemist. &Quot;

“Although it’s not a 100% copy of his alchemy skills, it can still retain 70% to 80% of his standard.”

&Quot; moreover, with the life Providence, even when the Imperial astronomer of the Liu Yan Empire calculated the origin of the selected Alchemist when he entered the ‘small sky of freedom’, he had a solid foundation and was not easy to be discovered. &Quot;

Zhou Miaoli took the Jade slip and nodded, ” “Alright,” he said.

“Remember!” When si honglun saw this, he reminded, ” don’t touch the alchemists from the glazed avarice Empire. &Quot; This kind of Alchemist had left behind countless records in the government since he was young, and many of his friends and family had a deep understanding of him. Even if you use this technique, it’ll be difficult not to give yourself away under the layers of inspection!”

“Or his friends and relatives noticed something was wrong and reported it to the government.”

&Quot; after all, every time the pill discussion ceremony starts, the dynasty will make up all kinds of crimes and put them on our heads. &Quot;

&Quot; during this period, as long as there’s any sign of trouble, those who are staying in the Empire for a long time will immediately report it to the officials! &Quot;

At the mention of this, even with his cultivation base, he could not help but reveal a look of annoyance. &Quot; and the government would rather run away than let you go ... When your identity is exposed, it’s a small matter that you can’t escape even if you have wings, but it’ll be a big deal if you ruin the clan’s plans! &Quot;

&Quot; so, it’s best to pick those unaffiliated alchemists who traveled a long distance from outside the Empire for the alchemy conference. &Quot;

&Quot; especially those who travel alone. They don’t have any close friends in the glazed tile Empire. &Quot;

“As for the art of pill cultivation, it is sufficient to enter the ‘minor freedom sky’.”

“This way, we won’t be easily exposed!”

“Understood!” Zhou Miaoli nodded again.
