Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Chapter 252 Guest



Chen Yuan returned the greeting with a bow and said with a smile: "I am Chen Yuan, Daoist Su Jin, please take a seat."

Su Jin had already revealed her identity in the sound transmission note, so Chen Yuan was not surprised.

She did not hide her cultivation in the middle stage of Jindan. She looked weak and charming, but people dared not underestimate her.

The two sat down as host and guest. Chen Yuan offered spiritual tea. Su Jin took it with a smile, but did not drink it, but put it on the table.

"Daoist Chen looks a little unfamiliar. You must have come to Hanxing City not long ago, right?" She asked with a smile.

Chen Yuan said lightly: "I used to hunt monsters in the Chaotic Stone Sea. I just came to Hanxing City 20 years ago. With the help of your alliance's spiritual veins, I was lucky enough to form a golden elixir."

After he came to Yuqing Sea, he carefully fabricated a set of origins.

Su Jin showed a look of realization and nodded, without any doubt.

The Chaotic Sea is in the southern part of Yuqing Sea, close to the Wan Yao Sea, and is full of micro-islands. Many casual cultivators pass through here to enter the Wan Yao Sea to hunt monsters, and there are all kinds of people.

Many cultivators died in the mouths of monsters, but some cultivators stood out and earned a lot of spirit stones by hunting monsters.

And they often choose to come to Hanxing City to form pills, because this place is very tolerant of independent cultivators, far better than the other two major sects.

After learning that Chen Yuan came from the chaotic sea, Su Jin took the initiative to lead the topic here, and Chen Yuan answered fluently.

True Man Qingyou had been to the Chaotic Sea. In the past 20 years, he had bought a lot of jade slips in the market of Hanxing City. He was very familiar with the situation of the Jade Clear Sea in the past thousand years, without any omissions.

The two chatted and laughed, and an hour passed unknowingly.

Su Jin looked at Chen Yuan with a curious look in her beautiful eyes, and her red lips slightly opened: "To be honest, I came here today on the order of the alliance to invite fellow Taoists to serve as the guest elder of this alliance. I wonder what you think?"

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Chen is thinking about this."

When he received Su Jin's sound transmission note, he knew her intention.

As a force formed by the union of several clans and families, the Righteous Alliance is very tolerant of independent cultivators and has the habit of recruiting independent cultivators who have reached the Jindan stage as guest elders.

The guest elders will receive a sum of money every year. They do not need to bear specific responsibilities in the Righteous Alliance, nor can they arbitrarily drive the disciples of the Righteous Alliance to do things. They only need to complete a task within their ability for the Righteous Alliance every ten years.

In addition, if the Righteous Alliance asks the guest elders to help, they need to pay, and they cannot force the guest elders to accept.

The two sides have a mutually beneficial relationship. The Righteous Alliance has one more Jindan cultivator. The originally helpless independent cultivators can borrow the power of the Righteous Alliance. As long as they don't go too far, the Righteous Alliance will turn a blind eye.

Some immortal cultivation families and small sects were founded by the guest elders of the Righteous Alliance, and eventually became affiliated forces of the Righteous Alliance, which made the Righteous Alliance's sphere of influence in Yuqing Sea continue to expand, and the gap between it and the other two major sects is constantly narrowing.

This move was initiated by Han Xing Zhenren, the founder of the Righteous Alliance. At that time, the Righteous Alliance was established not long ago and was excluded by the other two major sects. It was in a difficult situation and could only vigorously absorb guest elders to enhance its strength.

Later, the Righteous Alliance developed into a truly large force, and this tradition was also retained.

However, there are also thresholds for becoming a guest elder of the Righteous Alliance. Only those independent cultivators with extraordinary strength will be invited by the Righteous Alliance.

Chen Yuan caused an amazing phenomenon when he formed the pill. Although he had just formed the pill, he still attracted the attention of the Righteous Alliance.

The Righteous Alliance did not distinguish between good and evil in their eyes. They never looked at the origin of the cultivators. As long as they were strong enough, the demon cultivators who escaped from the Jiuxian Continent to the Yuqing Sea could also become guest elders of the Righteous Alliance. There were precedents of this in the past.

So Su Jin was not surprised by Chen Yuan's answer. Almost no independent cultivator would refuse the invitation of the Righteous Alliance.

With a thought, the mustard ring on her left wrist flashed, and a white token appeared in her hand.

"This is the identity token of the guest elder. Please accept it, fellow Daoist Chen." She handed the token to Chen Yuan with a smile on her face. "With this token, fellow Daoist can receive ten high-quality spirit stones from Hanxing City every ten years, receive guest tasks from our alliance base, enjoy a 10% discount in the stores under our alliance, and participate in the Hanxing City auction every ten years for free."

Chen Yuan took the token. The material of this token is peculiar. It is not jade, gold or stone. One side is engraved with the word "guest" and the other side is engraved with the words "righteousness". It is said that it was written by Hanxing Zhenren himself, with amazing momentum.

Chen Yuan injected a trace of true energy into the token, and refined the token in an instant. The token turned from white to black, and the faded white turned into a white light spot, flying out of the token.

Su Jin was shocked and immediately took out a jade plate. The white light spot flew into the jade plate like a young swallow flying into the forest.

She didn't expect Chen Yuan to refine the token so quickly. This white token is not an ordinary thing. It takes at least ten breaths for ordinary Jindan early stage cultivators to force out white light spots. It seems that the alliance's guess is right. This person is indeed extraordinary.

Su Jin's smile became even stronger: "The guest token issued by this alliance is unique. Please keep the guest token well, don't lose it, and don't give it to others to use. If it causes any misunderstanding, it will be bad."

Chen Yuan nodded, and with a thought, he put the guest token into the mustard ring.

Yuqing Sea is rich, and it is very common for Jindan cultivators to wear mustard rings. Chen Yuan finally doesn't have to hide the mustard ring carefully anymore.

Chen Yuan agreed to become a guest elder, and he was also half a member of the Righteous Alliance. Su Jin's attitude became much closer. He exchanged cultivation experiences with him until it was getting dark, and then he said goodbye and left.

Chen Yuan sent Su Jin out of the cave, returned to the practice room, took out the token of the Righteous Alliance, and carefully checked it before he felt relieved.

The Righteous Alliance has a good reputation among casual cultivators, but Chen Yuan doesn't trust anyone, he only trusts himself.

The reason why he accepted Su Jin's invitation was that he was attracted by the platform of the Righteous Alliance, which was convenient for inquiring about information, and he could also receive a sum of offerings. The constraints were not strict, and he did not feel a sense of belonging to the Righteous Alliance.

Moreover, becoming a guest elder of the Righteous Alliance would be of great help to his subsequent cultivation.

The Righteous Alliance is not as long-standing as the other two major sects. Its internal structure is relatively loose, and it has absorbed many casual cultivators. The atmosphere in the alliance is profit-oriented, valuing profit over righteousness, daring to take risks, and not patiently managing the sect. The focus is more on trade, and it has cooperated with the sects on the Jiuxian Continent.

Chen Yuan has now become a casual cultivator again. After the spiritual herbs in his hands are used up, he can only find another way to raise spiritual herbs.

In the past twenty years, he has been thinking about this problem and has already figured out a plan, which is to hunt monsters.
