Chapter 155 Messenger Magic Weapon
Jiang Jingzhi carefully collected the rare refining materials on the ground one by one, his movements gentle as if he were handling the most precious treasures in the world. He would look at each one for a few more seconds, thinking about how to forge them into the most suitable magic weapon for his junior sister. His junior brother was just an afterthought.
"I'll keep these materials for now. I'll forge them in seclusion and I'll make sure they don't disappoint my junior sister's kindness." Jiang Jingzhi put the last spirit crystal into his storage bag, his eyes full of determination.
Xu Xiaoxiao and Mu Zhusheng looked at their senior brother with eyes full of trust and expectation. "Senior brother, we believe in you!" they said in unison.
In the days that followed, Jiang Jingzhi went into seclusion once again, while Xu Xiaoxiao and Mu Zhusheng continued their cultivation and studies as usual. Xu Xiaoxiao practiced swordsmanship every day without fail, and her swordsmanship became increasingly fierce; Mu Zhusheng also continued to study alchemy, trying to refine higher-level pills.
After an unknown amount of time, on a sunny afternoon, Jiang Jingzhi emerged from seclusion, carrying two magical artifacts: an exquisite jade bracelet and an ancient jade ring.
"Second Junior Brother, Junior Sister, come quickly!" Jiang Jingzhi's voice rang out in the courtyard.
Hearing the call, Xu Xiaoxiao and Mu Zhusheng rushed over. When they saw the magic weapon in their senior brother's hand, their eyes were filled with surprise and joy.
"Senior Brother, this is..." Xu Xiaoxiao spoke first, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.
"This is the magic weapon crafted using the materials you gave me," Jiang Jingzhi said with a smile. "Junior Sister, this jade bracelet is for you."
Xu Xiaoxiao excitedly took the bracelet and gently put it on her wrist. Instantly, a warm and gentle power spread throughout her body. She closed her eyes and probed the bracelet with her divine sense. A wonderful scene appeared before her eyes: a clear spiritual spring shimmered in the sunlight. Beside the spring was an exquisite courtyard, filled with spiritual energy. Beyond the courtyard, there was a large open space, which seemed to be used to grow various medicinal plants. Moreover, she felt that when she encountered danger, she and her contracted spirit pet, Lanxing, could instantly enter this space.
"Wow, Senior Brother, this is amazing! I was fortunate enough to see the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion's secret treasure, the Qiankun Illusionary Spirit Particle, before. I never thought I would be able to possess it too. Senior Brother, I love you so much!" Xu Xiaoxiao jumped up excitedly and hugged Jiang Jingzhi's waist.
She said, "There's also a spiritual spring and a courtyard inside, where we can grow lots and lots of medicinal plants!" She was completely unaware that her senior brother was being held so tightly that his body was stiff and his ears were turning red.
Looking at Xu Xiaoxiao's happy appearance, Jiang Jingzhi's eyes were full of doting. He coughed twice to calm his heart. "I'm glad you like it. This spiritual spring will greatly benefit your cultivation and alchemy. Medicinal plants planted in it will also grow quickly. If you encounter danger, you and your spirit pet can hide inside to ensure your safety."
Then, Jiang Jingzhi handed the bead ring to Mu Zhusheng: "Second Junior Brother, this bead ring is yours."
Mu Zhusheng took the ring in disbelief. He also had a piece of it and probed it with his divine sense.
Inside the ring was a stream formed by the convergence of spiritual energy, and beside the stream was a vast expanse of land. Although it was not as rich as Xu Xiaoxiao's Jiezi bracelet, it was still a pleasant surprise for him.
"Senior Brother, thank you so much! This will be of great help to my alchemy, and I will be able to grow all kinds of rare medicinal plants in there in the future," Mu Zhusheng said excitedly.
Xu Xiaoxiao moved closer to Mu Zhusheng and asked curiously, "Second Senior Brother, what's inside your mittens?"
Mu Zhusheng smiled and described it to me, then said, "Although it can't compare to what you, Junior Sister, have done, I am already very satisfied. How can I not be grateful for Senior Brother's efforts?"
Xu Xiaoxiao stuck out her tongue: "I was just lucky. But second senior brother, we can plant medicinal plants together in there in the future, exchange ideas, and see who can plant them better."
Jiang Jingzhi looked at his junior brothers and sisters and said with satisfaction, "With these two magic treasures, I hope they can help you walk more steadily and further on the path of cultivation. Remember, safety comes first on the path of cultivation."
"Yes, Senior Brother!" Xu Xiaoxiao and Mu Zhusheng replied in unison, their eyes filled with anticipation for their future cultivation. At this moment, their admiration for Senior Brother Jiang Jingzhi had grown even stronger.
Seeing the smiles on their faces, Jiang Jingzhi blamed himself for not being more ambitious and for not finding the materials and refining it sooner. But it wasn't too late now, and the corners of his lips unconsciously turned up.
On this sunny day, the disciples of the Heavenly Sect were busy in their respective cultivation areas as usual when suddenly, a series of urgent bell tolls echoed throughout the sect, breaking the usual tranquility.
The sound of the bell was a signal to summon all disciples. Everyone was startled and stopped what they were doing, rushing towards the sect's main hall.
Xu Xiaoxiao and Mu Zhusheng were cultivating in a secluded valley when they heard the bell. They exchanged a glance and immediately took off on their swords, flying towards the main hall. When they arrived, they saw that a dense crowd of disciples had already gathered in front of the main hall. Everyone looked solemn and were discussing in hushed tones.
Before long, the sect leader of the Huitian Sect, Lingxu Daozun, dressed in a crescent-shaped robe, emerged from the hall like lightning and landed steadily on the high platform in front of the hall.
His face was stern, his eyes conveying authority and solemnity, his white hair fluttering gently in the wind, and he exuded an aura that commanded respect. Behind him, several elders appeared one by one, their expressions equally grave.
Lingxu Daozun's gaze slowly swept over the disciples below the stage, and the entire hall immediately fell silent. He then said in a deep voice, "I have summoned you all today because of an urgent matter. Our sect has just received a distress call from Dongzhou."
As Lingxu Daozun spoke, a jade slip emitting a faint light appeared in his hand, with faint traces of blood on it, making it particularly shocking.
"Dongzhou is currently under a large-scale attack by evil cultivators and is in imminent danger," said Lingxu Daozun in a deep and powerful voice.
“We are not the only ones who have received the distress call, but no matter how other sects react, the disciples of our Huitian Sect will never sit idly by!” A resolute look flashed in his eyes, his hands clenched into fists, and he looked at everyone with a firm gaze.
The disciples below the stage erupted in an uproar, their faces showing surprise and indignation. Xu Xiaoxiao frowned, a flash of anger in her eyes, and clenched her fists. Mu Zhusheng, on the other hand, had a solemn expression and nodded slightly, agreeing with the sect leader's words.
He then continued, “The five states of cultivation are interconnected. Once the Eastern State is breached, the evil cultivation forces will surely continue to expand, and our Central State will also suffer greatly. The principle of ‘if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold’ is something everyone understands.” He looked intently at each disciple below the stage.
"All disciples with Golden Core cultivation or above must depart for the rescue mission to Dongzhou! This is the responsibility of our Heavenly Sect, and the mission of every cultivator!"
His voice was passionate and powerful, echoing for a long time in front of the hall. After speaking, he suddenly waved his hand, and a beam of spiritual energy flew out from his hand, transforming into a map of Dongzhou in the air. Several red lights flashed on it, clearly indicating the location of the evil cultivator forces.
"This rescue mission is arduous and fraught with danger, but I believe that none of you will back down!" Master Xuanfeng looked at everyone with a serious expression and a firm gaze.
"When have the disciples of the Heavenly Sect ever feared hardship and danger? We will let those evil cultivators know that the determination of cultivators to protect all living beings is as firm as a rock!"
The disciples below the stage were deeply inspired by their sect leader's words. They straightened their backs and shouted loudly, "We are willing to obey the sect leader's orders! We swear to protect Dongzhou to the death!" Their voices resounded through the sky, their momentum overwhelming.
Lingxu Daozun nodded slightly, a look of satisfaction in his eyes. "Good! In that case, everyone go back and prepare immediately. We will set off for Dongzhou in a quarter of an hour!" After saying that, he waved his long sleeves, turned around and strode into the main hall, leaving the disciples behind, their hearts filled with a sense of mission and responsibility.
