NOVPUB"Are you here to sign up and execute the task with us?" The woman, who appeared quite cold and glamorous, managed to squeeze out a trace of a smile on her face.
It seemed she was afraid of scaring Xu Ping’an and the others away.
Of course, she was also sizing up Xu Ping’an and their cultivation.
One at the Ninth Rank Peak, one at the Ninth Rank Seventh Layer Realm, although a bit weak, it was still better than nothing. 𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝒃.𝙘𝙤𝒎
"Yes, we want to know more about your recruitment, are you really giving out Eleventh Rank Low Grade Immortal Pills? And one for each person?" Xu Ping’an hurriedly asked.
"Yes, we really are giving them, but we need to enter deep into the Yin Corpse Forest to pick the Yin Sha Blood Fruit. If you can accept that, I can give you an Eleventh Rank Low Grade Immortal Pill right now," the woman said urgently.
"What do I need to do?" Xu Ping’an’s eyes lit up as if he was quite interested, but his face also showed a hint of struggle.
Xue Yin watched from the side, secretly amused, as her master’s acting was indeed quite good.
"We have a Formation called the Pure Yang Fire Formation, but to maintain this Formation, we need four people."
"And as the main person for attack, I cannot maintain the Formation, so we need two other people to hold Formation flags and operate the Formation."
"Don’t worry, we will provide Superior Grade Spirit Stones, so you won’t need to consume your own strength to operate the Formation," the woman explained.
"Just to operate the Formation?" Xu Ping’an revealed a hint of temptation.
This reaction, seen by the woman, made her very happy.
Finally, someone was tempted and not scared away.
The two young men also seemed very tempted and hurriedly came forward, saying, "Don’t worry, we are from the Immortal Hall, and she is the Saintess from the Sun and Moon Pavilion of the Immortal Hall, how could she lie and deceive you?"
"The Saintess of the Sun and Moon Pavilion?" Xu Ping’an looked at the woman in surprise.
No wonder he had found her so cold and arrogant, she was the Saintess from the Sun and Moon Pavilion of the Immortal Hall.
One hall, three pavilions, Asking Heaven, Mountain and Sea, Sun and Moon.
Xu Ping’an had not expected to encounter the Saintess of the Sun and Moon Pavilion so soon.
This woman seemed to be only around twenty-one or twenty-two years old, yet to have reached the Tenth Rank Peak, her talent was indeed extraordinary.
"The lad doesn’t recognize a great person, unaware of the Saintess’s identity," Xu Ping’an quickly said.
Yin Xue also followed with a salute, but her heart was filled with disdain.
What Saintess? She could slap her to death with one hand.
But since Xu Ping’an was playing a role, she would of course go along with it.
"Ignorance is no sin, does this mean you agree?" the woman said.
"Yes, we agree. Although the Yin Corpse Forest is dangerous, we believe that with the Saintess here, we will definitely be safe and sound," Xu Ping’an quickly flattered.
The two Tenth Rank young men beside her immediately looked disdainful, already flattering, huh?
But even if you flatter more, it’s no use, young man. This person’s pride is as high as the sky, and she looks down on everyone.
"Since that’s the case, then you should first speak of your identities," the woman said.
"My name is Xu Ping’an, and this is my senior sister Yin Xue. We come from a small Sect known as the Boundless Sect," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.
"Boundless Sect? I’ve never even heard of it," the Tenth Rank Sixth Layer Realm young man said with a light laugh.
Xu Ping’an sneered to himself, of course you haven’t heard of it, because I made it up.
But still, he pretended to look ashamed and said, "Our Sect is very small, so it’s normal that you haven’t heard of it."
"You said your name is Xu Ping’an?" The woman then looked at Xu Ping’an in surprise.
"Yes, is there an issue, Saintess?" Xu Ping’an asked.
"No, but there happens to be a talented individual with the same name as you, it couldn’t possibly be you," the woman responded.
The same name?
Xu Ping’an felt embarrassed; he had forgotten about the genius list.
He now ranked twenty-ninth on the Genius Rankings, fortunately, the information recorded about him on the Genius Rankings was not detailed.
It only mentioned his name and his strength, but as for his cultivation, that was left unsaid.
Otherwise, he would have already given himself away.
"Of course it can’t be him, Sister Du, he is ranked ahead of you. How could his cultivation possibly be Ninth Rank?" the youth at the Tenth Rank Seventh Layer Realm knew whom the woman was referring to and hurriedly spoke.
The woman also nodded her head and no longer dwelled on the thought.
Xu Ping’an gave a slight smile, pretending to be utterly clueless.
This expression of someone who had not seen much of the world completely dissuaded the woman from her suspicions.
"My name is Du Bingxin, from the Sun Moon Pavilion of the Immortal Hall. These two are my fellow disciples from the Immortal Hall’s academy, one is called Pan Zhen; the other is Tong Jianjun. They are both of the Tenth Rank in cultivation," Du Bingxin introduced.
"Honored to meet both of you," Xu Ping’an responded.
Yin Xue followed with a bow.
"No need for such courtesy, this is your reward for this time: an Eleventh Rank Low Grade Ascension Immortal Pill, which is a great elixir for breaking through the Tenth Rank and achieving Foundation Establishment. You’ll get another one once we’ve finalized our matter," said the Tenth Rank Sixth Layer Realm youth named Pan Zhen, laughing as he tossed a jade vial to Xu Ping’an.
"Thank you, my lord," Xu Ping’an said excitedly.
He immediately handed the jade vial to Yin Xue at his side.
Yin Xue made no fuss and directly took it, but she knew she was holding onto it for Xu Ping’an for the time being.
After all, the elixir was not much use to her, but it was of great use to Xu Ping’an.
Xu Ping’an had not expected that they would actually give him an Ascension Immortal Pill.
This pill did indeed have some use for him.
"Well then, since that’s the case, let’s set off," said Du Bingxin.
Xu Ping’an and Yin Xue both nodded their heads.
After that, they went towards the outside of West City Gate.
Soon, they were out of West City.
It was outside West City that they encountered people from the Jade Immortal Sect.
"People from the Jade Immortal Sect?" Du Bingxin and the others all changed their expressions; they had not expected to come across people from the Jade Immortal Sect here.
The people from the Jade Immortal Sect naturally noticed them as well, also showing a trace of solemnity.
However, neither side engaged in conflict, even the people from the Jade Immortal Sect did not act rashly.
Thus, they passed each other without incident.
Xu Ping’an and Yin Xue blended in with the group, and since Yin Xue had altered her appearance and aura, they did not recognize her as Yin Xue and assumed she was one of the Immortal Hall’s, thus they did not inquire further.
Originally, Xu Ping’an would have thought that the people from the Jade Immortal Sect might take action against the Immortal Hall.
But, it seemed there was no conflict as they were probably unsure if there were any other powerful beings from the Immortal Hall nearby.
Acting at this moment, could easily alarm their opponent prematurely.
They soon arrived once again in front of that ancient temple.
However, they did not enter immediately and instead stopped in front of it.
"Beyond this ancient temple lies the true boundary of the Yin Corpses Forest; we will encounter danger soon. Stick close to us, and these are the formation flags and Superior Grade Immortal Spirit Stones. When I tell you to activate the formation, do so immediately," Pan Zhen said.
"Okay!" Xu Ping’an and Yin Xue replied in unison.
They then received the formation flags and Superior Grade Immortal Spirit Stones.
But Du Bingxin, standing to the side, was staring intently at the stone temple, her thoughts unknown.
Seeing this, Xu Ping’an couldn’t help but activate the Space-Time Immortal Talisman, sizing up the stone temple.
This glance caused Xu Ping’an’s pupils to constrict.
