There are quite a lot of non-staff monks coming and going in the Hall of Merit today, and among them there are also fourth-level and even fifth-level immortals who are older than Elder Qin.
But they didn't step forward to join in the fun. Although the core member was relatively junior, the core was the core. The core of Jueming Shrine would always be nobler than the non-staff members like them.
"Elder Qin, you may have stayed in the Hall of Merit for a long time and forgot one thing."
"Oh, I don't blame you. The core you followed died in the ancient restricted area, and you were the only one who survived on your Black Dragon."
"So do you have a deep fear of going to the ancient restricted area? In fact, sometimes people have to face their fear head-on in order to defeat it, overcome it, and then be reborn as a phoenix from the ashes."
Yu Core smiled and said: "That thing you forgot, I can remind you now. If Core wants you to come on board, you cannot refuse."
Elder Qin looked uncertain.
The other party is indeed right. If he is forced to do so, he will have no reason or ability to refuse.
"I don't know whose nonsense you listened to. I left the Red Core only because of my own reasons.
Since I value your ability at the core, I won’t argue with you about it. Otherwise, what you just said is the following.”
Jiang Chen said coldly.
Thinking that he was a fourth-level immortal, he was actually pointed at his nose and insulted by a junior third-level immortal. How could he normally swallow this tone?
But this time he did get into some trouble and had to keep a low profile.
"Old Qin, Yu Core came to invite you personally and has given you a great deal of respect. Why do you have to put on airs?"
"That's right, if you stay in the Hall of Merit and wait for death, how can you be as comfortable as going out to make meritorious deeds?"
"I remember you were not like this before. That year we passed the examination together and entered the Jueming Palace. You once said that even if you can't become the core, you still want to explore the realm of the ancient immortals!"
Several of the team members behind Yu Core obviously had friendships with Elder Qin, and they all started to persuade him.
"Yu Core wants to go together next time, probably for the substitute Gu."
Elder Qin spoke slowly and looked at the core, with a hint of understanding in his eyes:
"The third-level elixir of the Gu Immortal Path is exactly the Substitute Gu. I have this Gu in my body. If it means I have one more life, I might as well give this Gu to you. Don't mention the expedition again."
"No wonder..."
Many people looked surprised.
Yu Core felt resentful when he saw that his thoughts were revealed by the other party in front of so many people. If it were spread, it would definitely damage his reputation.
He said coldly: "Don't make random guesses. How can you guess the decisions made by the core?
That's it, starting from today, you join my magical transformation pioneer team."
Elder Qin's face turned pale, and then he let out a long sigh. I was afraid that this expedition would never come back. If he offended such a core member, it would be hard to think of anything going wrong.
Just as he was about to nod in agreement, he saw Fang Chen and his party walking into the Hall of Merit.
As soon as Lin Dong saw Elder Qin, he immediately waved happily and shouted:
"Old Qin!"
Elder Qin had a forced smile on his face and nodded gently.
"Old Qin, Fang Core has specially come to invite you to join his pioneering team today."
Lin Dong got straight to the point, while not forgetting to convey the message:
"He doesn't know that you are taking the Gu Immortal path."
Elder Qin was stunned for a moment and looked at Fang Chen blankly.
After Jiang Chen saw Fang Chen and Xiao Honglianxian arriving together, his expression changed drastically. He immediately stood aside with his head lowered, trying to keep a low profile.
When Yu Core heard Lin Dong's words, his expression suddenly darkened and he said coldly:
"Elder Qin has joined our divine transformation pioneering team, you are too late."
"Senior brother, you may have misunderstood. Elder Qin has already joined our Nine Regions Development Team beforehand. It's you who are a step late. I'm sorry."
Fang Chen smiled and cupped his hands.
"I've never met you. Which core disciple are you? I don't know what first-come, first-served means. How can you be so ruthless?"
At the core, his eyes were like lightning, looking at Fang Chen up and down.
The person next to him noticed Ji Gang's presence, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he quietly transmitted the message to the core:
"In the core, he is accompanied by the sixth-level immortal Jigang, who is the disciple of Taixu Ancient Immortal who was just promoted some time ago."
What!?
Yu Core was stunned. After being reminded, he quickly recognized Ji Gang's existence, and his expression changed again and again.
Elder Qin finally reacted at this moment, and immediately smiled at the core:
"Yu Core, I just refused because of this. It's just hard to explain clearly. I hope Yu Core doesn't take offense."
Yu Core nodded with a smile, and then looked at Fang Chen with a hint of unwillingness:
"Fang Core is too unfamiliar, when will he be promoted to core disciple?"
"Oh, Lao Yu, what are you doing here?"
At this moment, Yu Xinxin, who had been watching the show, hurried over and greeted Fang Chen and the other two while enthusiastically pulling Yu Xinxin away.
Yu Core was dragged outside the Hall of Merit, and finally couldn't help but waved his hand and said:
"What are you doing!?"
"Don't offend Fang Core. He belongs to Senior Sister, and the speed of his contract matrix heart is beyond your imagination. The elders will value him very much. It's not worth it for a mere rank three Gu Immortal."
"What!?"
Yu Core was stunned. He had just returned to Mingshen Palace, so he didn't know the news yet.
In the Hall of Merit, everyone saw that the core had been taken away, and they knew that the matter was over.
Elder Qin had originally intended to join Fang Chen's pioneering team, and today Fang Chen came to invite him personally, so he naturally agreed without hesitation.
There were many non-staff monks in the temple who were secretly envious.
The two core members came to invite him in person, and Elder Qin was very proud.
Not to mention that before that, someone from the core also came to invite me.
"Elder Qin, I just wanted to check out some spiritual materials."
Fang Chen smiled.
"Fang Core, please tell me."
Elder Qin was slightly startled, then nodded immediately, suddenly feeling a little uneasy. He wasn't going to ask about the best spiritual stone, was he?
He then said: "The best spiritual stones are the same as last time, there are no new ones."
"This time I don't want to buy the best spiritual stones, but..."
Fang Chen mentioned some spiritual materials, which are secret medicines needed for Xuanyang's fourth level, or secret medicines needed for the fourth level of Yanguang Divine Pupil...??m
He mixed it up and said that even if someone listened, no one would know what he wanted to do.
"Fang Core, wait a minute, I'll go back and check."
Elder Qin left in a hurry.
After about a cup of tea, he took the list and handed it to Fang Chen.
"We have all these spiritual materials, but there are also two spiritual materials that we don't have in stock here."
Elder Qin said.
Fang Chen nodded lightly. The two missing spiritual materials were the 'Hundred Blood Gentian', the core of Xuanyang's fourth-layer secret medicine, and the 'Suiyan', the core of the secret medicine of the fourth realm of Yanguang Divine Pupil.
"Excuse me, Elder Qin, please help me calculate the merits required for these spiritual materials, and I will get a share of them all."
It is also a good thing that these scattered spiritual materials can be gathered at Jueming Shrine.
As for the Hundred Blood Gentian and Suiyan, let Zhou Tianzhijian take action.
