Prehistoric: The female saint Shiji, brilliant and talented

Chapter 557: The Gift from Taishang Laojun

Zhunti's eyes flashed after hearing Shiji's words. He knew very well that if this alchemy method was spread, it would cause an uproar.

However, he remained expressionless, and was secretly amazed at Shiji's courage and talent.

Shiji saw Zhunti's reaction and thought to himself. He knew that he might have made the right bet this time, but he also realized that he needed to find more backers to protect himself. He decided to go to his master to discuss this matter after leaving here.

Seeing this, Zhunti said no more.

He clasped his fists and said to Shiji: "My friend, we will wait for your good news. I hope you can refine the elixir as soon as possible."

Shiji suddenly remembered something when he heard this. He said, "Wait a minute, my two saints. I have another question for you. Do you have any other gifts to give me?"

Zhunti and Jie Yin looked at each other and sighed in their hearts.

Zhunti said, "My friend, this is a storage ring. You can choose whatever you want from it. Just ask for any materials you need."

Shi Ji was overjoyed when he heard this. He took the storage ring and saw that it was filled with various spiritual stones. He was shocked and knew that these spiritual stones were genuine treasures. He roughly counted and found that there were at least 10,000 spiritual crystals!

Zhunti looked at Shiji's surprised expression and felt a little embarrassed.

After all, he and Jie Yin had jointly robbed these spiritual stones. However, at this moment, he generously gave them to Shi Ji.

Shiji came back to her senses and said to Zhunti with gratitude: "Thank you both for your generous help. I will do my best to refine the Nine Revolutions Golden Lotus Pill for you. Please take care of me when the time comes."

After saying that, Shiji accepted the storage ring. Zhunti looked at Shiji and then at Jieyin and said, "Let's just wait for good news. I'll leave this matter to you, my friend."

Shiji nodded in agreement. Jie Yin then asked, "How many pills can you refine now, my friend?"

Shi Ji's heart was moved when he heard this. He pretended to be ignorant and asked, "Why? Do you need to refine other medicinal materials?"

Zhunti said: "That's right. Our goal is the Nine-Transformation Golden Lotus Pill. But one may not be enough. So please help us refine a few more." After saying that, he looked at Shiji with eyes full of anticipation and enthusiasm.

Although Shiji was a little nervous, she pretended to be calm and said, "Although these materials are precious, they are not impossible to obtain. It's just that the spiritual herbs are too rare, so it may take some time to find them all."

After hearing Shiji's words, Zhunti couldn't help but fall into deep thought with a frown on his face.

The two saints were not stupid, and they naturally understood what Shiji meant. If they wanted to obtain the Nine-Transformation Golden Lotus Pill, they would probably have to look for the rare spiritual herb somewhere else.

The two smiled at each other, tacitly not pointing it out, and just nodded slightly.

Shiji saw the look on the Saint Jieyin's face and knew that he had guessed his thoughts. So, he hesitated for a moment and continued, "In fact, I have another kind of magical herb in my hand - the Red Flame Fruit. But this magical herb is too rare, I'm afraid even Saint Zhunti can't easily obtain it."

As soon as these words came out, a flash of surprise flashed across the eyes of the Saint Jie Yin. He had never expected that he would unexpectedly learn about the Red Flame Fruit here. It was a legendary rare treasure, said to be the fruit of the Flame Tree, and eating it could give people powerful fire attributes.

Although Zhunti had never seen the Red Flame Fruit with his own eyes, he knew from the records in ancient books that its growing environment was harsh and it was rare to see it.

His mind raced, and after hesitating for a long time, he slowly spoke: "In that case, my friend Shiji, why don't you take care of this matter."

"I didn't get any benefit this time." Shiji said innocently.

The Saint Jie Yin responded with a smile: "My friend Shiji, you can receive the blessing of the saint thanks to your superb alchemy skills. If you are willing to help, we will give you the due reward, how about it?" His smile became brighter and he looked at Shiji with expectation.

Shiji was happy when she heard this, but after careful consideration, she shook her head.

He knew very well that such an opportunity was rare, and that he did not need any material rewards from the Bodhisattva Cundi at the moment.

When Saint Jie Yin saw this, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. His eyes unconsciously fell on the ring in his hand and he sighed softly.

Although he and Zhunti were greedy, they were already satisfied to obtain Shiji's Nine-Turn Golden Lotus Pill this time.

What's more, they also saw that although Shiji's cultivation was not high, he possessed amazing alchemy skills and they did not dare to offend him easily.

Upon seeing this, the Bodhisattva Cundi said, "My dear friend Shiji, I'll leave this matter in your hands. Junior Sister Jie Yin and I will go ahead." The Bodhisattva Jie Yin nodded in agreement.

Looking at the two saints' departing backs, Shiji felt a surge of reluctance in his heart.

After all, these two have always been his idols.

Now, they left right before her eyes. Shiji knew that she might never see such a scene again in her lifetime.

At this moment, the Saint Jie Yin suddenly stopped, turned around and said to Shi Ji, "Friend Shi Ji, I'm afraid it will be a long time before we meet again after this separation." He said with a hint of reluctance, "I hope you will remember the conditions we proposed before."

Upon hearing this, Shiji nodded solemnly and responded, "I will follow the Saint's instructions."

The Saint Jieyin smiled with satisfaction and turned away. Shiji stood there, watching the two saints of the West walking away, and a sense of inexplicable melancholy surged in his heart. He understood that his smooth journey was all due to the protection of his master in secret. He was grateful and knew that all this was what he deserved.

Just as Shiji turned around, he saw Taishang Laojun standing in front of him with a smile on his face. He quickly bowed respectfully and said, "Master Uncle."

"Haha, I already know everything about you. Master Uncle doesn't have anything good to give you right now, so take this first." Taishang Laojun said, taking out a jade talisman from his arms and handing it to Shiji.

Upon seeing this, Shiji quickly declined, saying, "I am flattered by your kindness, Uncle Master. I dare not accept this gift." He knew very well that the jade talisman was a personal item of Taishang Laojun and was of extraordinary significance.

Taishang Laojun smiled and waved his hand, saying: "You have been studying alchemy in my Tushita Palace for many years. We get along very well. Why should you be so polite? This is what I prepared specially for you to help you protect yourself during your practice. Please accept it."

Shiji had no choice but to accept the jade talisman, thinking to herself that she owed the master a great favor this time and would find a way to repay him in the future.

Afterwards, Shiji left with Taishang Laojun and came to the Tianwaitian.

I saw Tongtian Sect Master sitting aside drinking. Seeing the two of them coming, he looked at Taishang Laojun and said with a smile: "Big Brother, I appreciate your care for Shiji during this period of time."

Taishang Laojun stroked his beard and smiled: "Why are you so polite, Third Junior Sister? Since the Three Pure Ones separated, you have rarely come to the Tushita Palace to visit me."

Tongtian looked slightly embarrassed when he heard this and said no more.

Taishang Laojun sighed inwardly, and then said to Tongtian: "Shiji is a promising talent. I hope you can cultivate him well. I will personally guide him in the art of alchemy in the future. What do you think?" Tongtian heard this and immediately agreed. Shiji was shocked when he heard what Taishang Laojun said.

He didn't expect that Taishang Laojun was so serious. Although he had been favored by Taishang Laojun because of his talent in alchemy, he never thought that the other party would invite him so solemnly.

Shiji knew very well the status and influence of Taishang Laojun in the Three Realms. He personally invited her, didn't it mean that she had won his attention? At this moment, Shiji seemed to have grasped a key point, and her mind suddenly became clear.

He quickly came back to his senses and respectfully bowed to the Supreme Lord and thanked him: "Master, I will remember your kindness forever."

"Haha, good boy." Taishang Laojun nodded with a smile. Tongtian saw this scene and felt mixed emotions.

Although he knew that Taishang Laojun thought highly of Shiji, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he saw this scene.

Although Taishang Laojun ruled by doing nothing, he was always very caring towards him, unlike Yuanshi who was so confrontational.

However, after the great catastrophe of the Conferred Gods, the Jie Sect and the Chen Sect became enemies, and he and Yuanshi also broke off completely.

Tongtian was filled with emotion, and looking at the senior brother in front of him, he couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.

At this moment, Shiji suddenly looked up at Master Tongtian, bowed and said, "Master."

Tongtian was stunned for a moment, then nodded amiably: "What's the matter?"

"Before, the two saints from the West, Jie Yin and Zhunti, came to me and hoped that I could help them refine the Chaos Spirit Medicine. I have agreed and do not ask for anything in return. Therefore, I would like to ask Master to allow me to continue practicing while I am in seclusion refining the medicine."

Tongtian was surprised by Shiji's words. He had never expected Shiji to make such a request.

After being stunned for a moment, he looked at Shiji with a smile and said, "Okay, since you have this wish, your teacher will fulfill it."

Hearing the master's consent, Shiji breathed a sigh of relief and quickly bowed to express his gratitude.

Afterwards, Master Tongtian called Taishang Laojun aside, gave Shiji a few instructions, and then asked him to return to the cave first.

After Shiji left, she returned to the cave and saw Zhao Gongming waiting at the entrance. Seeing Shiji return, Zhao Gongming hurried forward to congratulate her.

Shiji hurriedly bowed to express her gratitude. Seeing this, Zhao Gongming smiled and said, "Junior sister, I haven't seen you for a long time. Have you been slacking off in your cultivation?" He knew that Shiji was the Holy Infant of Jiejiao and was valued by his three sisters, so he naturally cared about her.

Shi Ji smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother. I have been practicing diligently, but I have some doubts that I haven't solved yet, so I haven't continued to practice in depth. I'm sorry to have troubled you."

"No, no, if you have any doubts in your cultivation, I can help you." Zhao Gongming said enthusiastically.

"Thank you so much, Senior Brother." Shi Ji hurriedly bowed his hands to express his gratitude. He knew very well that this was Zhao Gongming's gesture of goodwill to him, and he also knew that such a gesture of goodwill would only benefit him and not harm him.

Seeing Shiji's humble and polite attitude, Zhao Gongming nodded with satisfaction and said, "I have something else to do, so I'll go first. When you are free, we can go to the Peach Banquet together."

"Sure." Shiji responded readily.

Shiji nodded slightly. After Zhao Gongming said goodbye, he fell into meditation and began his journey of spiritual practice.

During this period of seclusion, he devoted himself to exploring the origin of chaos, which was his most urgent goal at the moment.

Time flies, and three hundred years seem to pass in the blink of an eye.

During these three hundred years, Shiji's life was simple and fulfilling. In addition to cultivation, he also made alchemy. He was committed to improving his own cultivation and hoped to gain a deeper understanding of the origin of chaos through alchemy.

After a long period of hard training, his understanding of the origin of chaos became increasingly profound. It seemed that he had touched upon some insurmountable obstacles, but the solution was still out of reach.

Shiji was extremely anxious, but he had no other options. He would go to the top of Tongtian Peak almost every day to cultivate with the help of the spiritual energy there, hoping to make a breakthrough.

As the only disciple of Taishang Laojun in the alchemy way, and highly valued by Taishang Laojun, Shiji naturally carries many expectations. Tongtian Jiaozhu also cares for him meticulously, which makes him dare not slack off.

Three hundred years passed in a flash, and the day of the Peach Banquet finally arrived.

On this day, all the heavenly soldiers and immortal generals under the command of Queen Mother of the West gathered together.

Above the Heavenly Palace, Master Tongtian and Yuanshi Tianzun stood side by side. The aura of the two saints blended together, making the entire sky shrouded in golden splendor.

In this glorious scene, a road paved with white clouds slowly extends out. On a huge auspicious cloud, more than 300 Taoist masters stand. They are all in high spirits and look extraordinary.

Behind them were countless cranes, each with a cultivator sitting on it. They were dressed in brocade clothes, had handsome faces, looked young and full of energy, and each of them was a Golden Immortal with profound cultivation, and some of them had even reached the realm of Daluo Golden Immortal.

Behind these Taoist priests stood hundreds of Taoist boys and girls. They were all the most outstanding disciples of each sect, with different temperaments. Some were tall and strong, some were handsome, some were gentle and elegant, and some were elegant and unrestrained.

Among them, the most eye-catching are the disciples of the orthodox sect and the evil sect. Shiji, as the holy infant of the evil sect and the direct disciple of Taishang Laojun in the way of alchemy, has become the focus of everyone's attention.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that Third Junior Sister would lead the team here in person this time." The tit-for-tat between Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Jiaozhu never stopped, but neither of them could gain the upper hand.

This battle has been going on for years, but there is still no resolution. Instead, it is getting more intense.

Many people at the scene were discussing this, and many believed that Shiji was the biggest winner. Not only was he gifted, he was also the only disciple of Taishang Laojun in the art of alchemy.

Although his background remains a mystery, his talent is impeccable.

If it weren't for the relationship between the Holy Infant of Jiejiao and Taishang Laojun, he would have probably become a thorn in the side of Chenjiao long ago.

The disciples of Jiejiao have high hopes for Shiji. Over the years, Shiji's progress has been astonishing.

Although they didn't have high expectations for him, they at least didn't want him to fall behind.

"Thank you for your concern, senior brother." Tongtian Jiaozhu responded to Yuanshi Tianzun's ridicule neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Yuanshi Tianzun saw that Tongtian Jiaozhu was unmoved and was speechless. He could not help but snorted coldly: "Tongtian, ah Tongtian, are you making a fuss over nothing by doing this? (End of this chapter)
