Chapter 106 Establishing Prestige
Master Mulong came back to his senses and said calmly, "So it's Fellow Daoist Qi. I've heard of your name before. I'm Master Mulong. These two are Master Yuanjun and Master Kanqin. They are the deputy island masters of Kuixing Island."

"I have heard of the good reputations of the two deputy island masters. After meeting them today, I find that the rumors are indeed true." Qi Yuan said with a smile and gently.

Yuan Jun Zhenren laughed, and was also surprised by Qi Yuan's profound aura in his heart. He said, "It's just an empty name. Now that the guests are all here, Brother Mu Long, let's go in."

When Master Kanqin turned around, he couldn't help but take another look at Qi Yuan's appearance, secretly sighing that Qi Yuan was really pleasing to the eye.

Qi Yuan followed the three of them into the cave, where there were seven or eight black wooden chairs inlaid with gold, all of which were occupied by Jindan stage cultivators. Next to them was a small independent coffee table with spiritual tea and exquisite snacks on it.

At this time, a sinister-looking man, who was at the early stage of Jindan cultivation, said, "I thought Mulong had invited some distinguished guest, who had been dawdling outside and not coming in. I didn't expect it to be a casual cultivator I had never seen before."

As soon as this person said this, the atmosphere in the cave suddenly became subtle.

If you can cultivate to the Jindan stage in the Chaos Star Sea, you will always have more or less contact with people. Even if you are not famous, you will become familiar to others.

No one present was familiar with Qi Yuan's outstanding appearance, so naturally everyone had different thoughts and just stood by and watched.

Master Mulong had a calm expression, and it was hard to tell whether he was good or bad. He just glanced at the sinister man.

This person is a member of the magic sect in the Chaos Star Sea. He is highly respected in the magic sect and has a bright future.

Qi Yuan chuckled and bowed, saying, "Fellow Daoist, please forgive me."

The sinister man snorted coldly and did not answer.

Master Mulong took the opportunity to smooth things over and asked Qi Yuan to sit down.

Qi Yuan glanced at everyone calmly and discovered that within Master Mulong's small circle, there were both evil and righteous people, and the secret sects were quite mixed.

When Master Mu Long saw that all the guests he had invited had arrived, he stood up and said loudly, "Thank you all for coming to my secret meeting. There is also a new friend coming. Fellow Daoist Qi, please say hello to everyone."

Everyone's eyes instantly focused on him, with different expressions.

Qi Yuan's expression remained unchanged. He left his seat, bowed and said, "Qi Yuan, hello to all the Taoist friends."

"Easy to say!"

"After we disperse, Brother Qi, can we keep in touch with each other?"

"What a beautiful new friend! Would you like me to introduce you to a female cultivator from the Miaoyin Sect? I guarantee you will never want to leave."

"Ahem..." Master Mulong realized that it was time, and immediately stopped everyone from talking at once, saying, "As usual, we will talk about our thoughts on cultivation first, and then exchange treasures with each other."

In the next four or five hours, a group of Jindan cultivators talked about their cultivation experiences or raised questions about cultivation, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

Qi Yuan mostly listened quietly by the side, and gained a lot from it. He solved many small problems and was inspired with new ideas for practice.

The conversation about spiritual practice experience is over.

Master Mulong took out a jade box and said, "Let me throw out some ideas. This is a piece of cloud essence stone, a magical material. I want to exchange it for a wood attribute spiritual medicine of similar value."

Qi Yuan took a look at the sparkling cloud stone the size of a baby's fist and his mind moved slightly. This treasure is not bad. Do you want to exchange it?
He actually has several wood-attributed spiritual herbs on him.

At this time, an old woman said in a hoarse voice: "Cloud Essence Stone? I didn't expect that you, Mu Long, have such a treasure. I don't have any wood-attributed spiritual medicine. Do you agree to the wood-attributed demon pill?"

Snapped!
A level five demon beast's inner core was placed in front of everyone, and one could sense at a glance that it contained a strong wood attribute.

"Okay, Granny Baihua, it's a deal."

When Master Mulong saw that the others had no interest in the exchange, he immediately agreed to the exchange.

The two of them pushed each other with their magic power and exchanged the jade boxes.

With Master Mulong taking the lead, the atmosphere below was lifted again.

"I have an ancient short sword here, and I want to exchange it for an ancient long flute."

"This is a top-level mental method, left behind by a Yuanying old monster five hundred years ago. I need to exchange it for some elixirs for cultivation."

"..."

"Fellow Daoist Qi, it's your turn. What do you need?"

Master Mulong reminded.

Qi Yuan smiled and said, "I want to exchange some information about the five elements materials, namely the five elements fantasy jade, five elements earth fire, and five elements sky star stone. If you have information or physical objects, you can exchange them for spiritual medicines of the same value."

"Five Elements Magic Jade, isn't that a legendary treasure?"

"I have never heard of the Five Elements Heavenly Star Stone, but I have heard of the Ten Thousand Year Heavenly Star Stone."

"I have information about the five elements, earth and fire, but I need an earth-attributed elixir that is no less than eight hundred years old. And I don't accept demon pills." A righteous young Confucian scholar said at the right time.

Qi Yuan's eyes lit up. He didn't expect there was news about the five elements of earth and fire. This trip was not in vain. He raised his hand and a jade box flew over.

Snapped!
The jade box was opened.

When the young Confucian scholar saw the earth-attributed elixir inside, he was delighted. After checking that everything was correct, he provided the information to Qi Yuan via telepathy.

Qi Yuan's soul received the message from the Five Elements of Earth and Fire, listened silently, and then drank tea quietly.

Master Mulong smiled as he left his chair and said, "Well, now that everyone has exchanged for the treasures they need, the secret meeting is over."

"Wait, I still need to exchange treasures with someone."

The sinister man suddenly interrupted the atmosphere.

When the Confucian scholar saw that it was a cultivator of the evil sect, his face showed a hint of hostility, but he did not say a word.

Qi Yuan was very interested and wanted to see what new treasures he might see.

Master Mulong did not dare to offend the sinister man, and asked, "Daoist Ye Ya, who do you want to trade with?"

"He..." Night Crow pointed at Qi Yuan decisively.

This……

Master Mulong was suddenly speechless, and quickly calculated the gains and losses in his mind.

Qi Yuan was stunned for a moment, thinking that if the other party took out a good treasure, he would be willing to exchange it, so he said, "Daoyou Ye Ya, what do you want to exchange? Tell me first, and I will find it for you."

"A three thousand year old earth-attributed spiritual medicine." Night Crow took out a storage bag, threw it over, and said, "These are the spirit stones for purchasing the spiritual medicine." Qi Yuan's tone just now clearly implied that he had a high-year spiritual medicine in his hands. How could everyone not notice it?

But they are not as domineering as the people in the evil way.

Besides, this is the cave residence of Master Mulong, so we have to give him some face.

Master Mulong muttered secretly, this is bullying Qi Yuan for having no foundation!

With Night Crow's level of mingling, he had seen countless Jindan cultivators, both friends and foes, but he had never seen Qi Yuan's face or name.

It's clearly an attempt to force a sale!

It’s just a three thousand year old elixir. Does Brother Qi really have it?
Should we rescue them, so that we can have an excuse to lure them to Kuixing Island later...

Before, Master Mu Long wanted to give Qi Yuan a warning so as to lay the psychological pressure for the subsequent recruitment.

But he didn't expect that he couldn't sense Qi Yuan's true colors, so he immediately changed his method.

"With these few spirit stones, did Daoist Ye Ya take the wrong storage bag?"

Qi Yuan handed over the storage bag and said.

None of the other Jindan cultivators spoke. They knew Night Crow's character to some extent. He liked to bully independent cultivators and buy high-value treasures with low-level ones.

They just glanced at Master Mulong. He was the initiator of the secret meeting and had the right to stop it. It depended on whether he dared to do so.

"You are looking for death. How dare a mere wild cultivator refuse?"

The Night Crow opened its mouth and spit out a black nail several inches in size, which was engraved with dense red ghost patterns. The magic weapon revealed a lifeless and dull feeling, and it attacked at a very tricky angle.

The temperature dropped instantly and I could hear ghosts howling and curses.

Dead nails!
Everyone couldn't help but look cautious and were very wary of Night Crow's magic weapon.

Qi Yuan looked indifferent. He didn't want to kill anyone, but he had to use his fists to gain the respect of others.

With the magic harp in hand, his fingers passed over the strings, and the leisurely sound of the harp echoed throughout the cave.

Locking onto Night Crow's soul, he fiercely pushed...

Ah!
A scream startled everyone.

The dead man's nail was also within a palm's length of Qi Yuan's forehead when it suddenly stopped and fell to the ground.

Night Crow's body suddenly fell down, and his soul flew out of his body rapidly. His expression was full of fear. He was killed in one move.

What a terrifying power this is?
Moreover, both of them are in the early stage of Jindan, which further highlights the disparity in their strength.

Qi Yuan did not fly out to catch up with Night Crow's soul, but just plucked the magic harp again...

The heavy melody hit everyone's soul, and they breathed rapidly and watched intently.

"No... Daoist friend, please spare my life."

Night Crow let out a dying cry, and his soul was instantly twisted to the extreme, exploding with a bang, leaving him with no chance of even reincarnation.

It only took two casual moves to kill a person in the early stage of Jindan. Ye Ya was not an ordinary Jindan stage cultivator, and his strength was among the best.

Master Mu Long and the others all showed shocked expressions, looking at Qi Yuan's tall figure with a hint of fear.

Especially Master Mulong, he was glad that he had backed down quickly before, otherwise he would have suffered a lot.

Zhenren Kanqin moved closer to the embroidered shoes under her dress, and did not dare to look at her husband, Zhenren Yuanjun.

This was such an embarrassing thing that she wanted to close the door immediately and not see anyone else.

Qi Yuan put away the magic harp, raised his hand to take the magic weapon of black nails and the Night Crow storage bag in his hands, thinking about moving into Tianxing City to live. Under the protection of the Star Palace, the magic monks dared not do anything.

"Fellow Daoist Qi, I was negligent just now. Please forgive me."

Master Mulong said with an embarrassed look on his face.

People have different minds!

Qi Yuan didn't say anything, but just bowed and said calmly: "Everyone, see you again if we are lucky. I'm leaving first."

After saying this, he turned into a stream of light and fled out.

Annoyance appeared on Master Mulong's face. If he had spoken out to stop him, he would have had a chance to win over Qi Yuan.

In this situation, the fragile trust between the two people quietly collapsed.

By the way, he also has gifts prepared. Even if it can’t restore trust, it can at least ease the relationship.

Qi Yuan didn't care too much about the fickleness of these people. After all, it was the first time everyone met, so he didn't expect others to help him. It was a gain to be able to get the information about the Five Elements, Earth and Fire.

He was the one who asked for it.

Wanting to buy a three thousand year old spiritual medicine with one thousand spirit stones really shows the law of the jungle to the fullest.

If it were any other Jindan cultivator, he would probably have suffered serious consequences.

However, the five elements materials used to refine the natal magic weapon are extremely rare, and they cannot be traded without offering treasures of equal value.

I have to show off my wealth when I have no choice.

On the way back, Qi Yuan took a quick look through Night Crow's storage bag. After throwing away the irrelevant items, he found the chart of the Inner Star Sea and smiled faintly. With the chart of the Inner Star Sea, he was no longer blind when it came to directions.

The Chaos Star Sea can be divided into the inner and outer seas. The outer sea is a paradise for monsters and going there is a risk of death. The inner sea is the habitat of humans and is basically free of powerful monsters, so the safety factor is relatively high.

The identity of Night Crow is not simple, so it is inevitable that enemies will come to him.

The best solution for now is to move into Tianxing City so that the safety of Xin Ruyin and the others can be guaranteed.

Moreover, a large number of cultivators gathered in Tianxing City, and the yin and yang energies there were definitely very strong, which was just right for the creation of the Great Teleportation Order in one go.

As long as Yan Ruyan forms the elixir, she can travel between Tiannan and Chaos Star Sea.
