Because there is still some time before the Treasure Hunting Conference, there are not many monks on the third floor, only seven.
Only the clothing of men and women is concerned, and they are from the Biyue Sect of Yue State.
They should still be two monks, sitting at the same table.
The remaining five people were all from Yuanwu and Zijin countries. One person occupied a table and kept distance from each other. They were very distant and wary.
The female nun who spoke out was no exception.
But seeing her holding a porcelain cup in her hand, her body half-tilted, looking at Xie Duanyang, Xie Duanyang could sense some of her emotions even through a veil.
Among the seven people, Xie Duanyang actually saw a fellow disciple.
However, the other party did not show up in the main hall that day, so Xie Duanyang did not know the other party's name and which elder his master was.
But since I saw it outside, I couldn’t help but express it.
Xie Duanyang nodded to the female cultivator in green dress, and first went to the table of the senior brother from the Shenbing Sect to say hello.
In just a few words, we explain each other’s origins.
Only then did he find out that the other party was the closed disciple who was in charge of the elder named Qi of Lantai Yuan, and he was also his direct blood relative.
Previously, I had been practicing hard in seclusion and rarely appeared in public.
Therefore, although his cultivation level is not low, few people in the sect know about it.
Elder Qi's cultivation and combat prowess are not at the top among the twelve immortals of the Divine Weapon Sect, and there is no hope of further advancement.
However, his age and qualifications are still higher than those of the head martial arts master. In addition, he has been in charge of Lan Taiyuan for many years. He has a clear understanding of the classics and techniques in the sect, and he has the largest number of disciples.
Among the Divine Weapons Sect, apart from his own master, Xie Duanyang was the only one who had many dealings with the two Dan-jie masters, Tong Qi and Shui.
After knowing his identity, the two of them became very familiar with each other.
"How come, Junior Brother Xie knows that Mrs. Kang?"
After exchanging a few words of greetings, the monk surnamed Qi raised his thumb slightly, covered it up with his body, pointed secretly at the female monk in green skirt behind him, and asked via voice transmission.
Speaking of which, although he is already in the middle stage of foundation building, he is not too far away from the late stage.
But his experience is actually far inferior to that of Xie Duanyang.
He was found to have good aptitudes since he was a child, so he was brought to the sect by a monk named Qi to teach him personally.
I really hope that before I die, I can train another alchemy monk for the family to support the family.
I didn't even bother with enemy spells. I just learned a few of them and focused mainly on growing my cultivation.
But the monk surnamed Qi did not expect that the Yan family would actually organize a "treasure hunting competition".
With so many monks of the same age gathering in one place, it is inevitable that they will have to fight with each other.
He also knew that his great-grandson had little hope, so he might as well give it to a few other capable disciples.
But driven by selfishness, the old man surnamed Qi still sent him out.
However, the reason why he is nominally a disciple with suitable conditions is that he is too old and lacks spiritual roots.
Knowing that this grandson lacks experience, he came out this time.
The old man forced him to keep in mind the information about the alchemy monks from several neighboring countries and their disciples.
The old man surnamed Qi is in the Shenbing Sect, and he is naturally responsible for this aspect, so he is not in a difficult position.
Therefore, even though the female nun wore a veil, the monk named Qi still easily recognized her.
"Junior brother has not been out of the sect a few times, so how can he know anyone?"
Hearing the words of the male cultivator surnamed Qi, Xie Duanyang's eyes lit up slightly and he said honestly.
"It's just that I was given a concession by her at an auction a few years ago, and I got a stove. It was a small favor.
However, she is a woman, why did she come to participate in this treasure hunting competition..."
After a brief exchange of words, Xie Duanyang clasped his fists and said goodbye. He suddenly came to the nun's table in green dress, pulled out a chair and sat down.
"I haven't seen you for several years, but Kang Daoyou still has his charming demeanor."
He has already asked the male cultivator named Qi about the identity of this woman.
It actually comes from the "Wanmiao Temple" among the three righteous sects of Yuanwu Kingdom, which is famous for its talisman making in several neighboring countries.
His teacher is also an alchemy monk who has reached the middle stage of cultivation, and his magic power is at the forefront among the nine real people of Wanmiao Temple.
It's just that his longevity is already quite long. If he can't make any more breakthroughs in his cultivation, he may be dead in another seventy or eighty years.
"Fellow Taoist, I was joking. Kang Ting has not made any progress in her cultivation over the past few years, and she is really ashamed.
Fellow Daoist Xie succeeded in building the foundation in one fell swoop..."
After a few words of praise, Kang Ting flicked her hand on the purse-like storage bag, took out something and pushed it to Xie Duanyang.
"I heard that Elder Yan has been in seclusion for the past two years. Is it true?"
His eyes glanced upward and he recognized the half of the jade plaque he had given away in the secret shop. Xie Duanyang also took out the remaining half.
Put the two pieces together and they will be exactly the same.
"Yes, before Xie came out of the sect, Master Yan had gone into seclusion. If he could not form a golden elixir, he would not be able to break through the barrier."
Xie Duanyang did not take back the jade plaque immediately, but replied calmly.
Speaking of which, Kang Ting's luck is indeed a bit bad.
At that time, Xie Duanyang agreed that she would rush to the Shenbing Sect within three years.
Even if my cultivation level is insufficient and my skills are not perfect, I will still ask my master to help me.
But now that Yan Kuangge has gone into seclusion, another three years have passed.
The value of this promise has shrunk a lot.
"As expected."
Kang Ting must have inquired about it a long time ago. Her voice dimmed when she heard this, but she wasn't too rude.
Soon, she regained her energy and asked.
"I dare to ask fellow Taoist Xie if he can master the secret 'Metal Gold Collection Technique'?"
This time, she didn't say it in public, but used the art of sound transmission.
Kang Ting's expression was solemn, and it was obvious that whether she answered "yes" or "no" was extremely important to her.
Xie Duanyang's eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle.
The "Gold Melting Technique" also contains the magical power of "Melding Gold and Smelting Iron Hands", which not many people even know about in the Divine Weapon Sect.
Where did this woman know?
But when Xie Duanyang thought of the other party's master, it became clear again.
If his master is about to be enthroned, he should also have witnessed his master, Duobao Zhenren, when he was cultivating the world.
And since the other party is only asking about the "Gold Melting and Treasure Collection Technique" for internal use in refining weapons, it is obvious that his understanding of this magical power is not very deep.
In just a moment, Xie Duanyang's thoughts had already turned around several times, and he nodded and gave his own answer.
"Xie is not talented. He spent three years and barely completed the first level of this technique before more than a month ago.
Fellow Taoist asked this, could it be that he wanted to..."
"It's the first level, then it should be enough."
After hearing Xie Duanyang's affirmative answer, Kang Ting took a long breath and looked relieved.
But she did not answer Xie Duanyang directly. Instead, she looked around for a week and continued to transmit the message.
“There are so many people here, it’s hard to talk.
That matter can't be explained clearly in a few words. Why don't you thank fellow Daoist and tell me where to stay?
I’m going to visit you again in the evening and give my Taoist friends a detailed explanation?”
At this time, Xie Duanyang was really curious, but his appearance did not change at all, and he just nodded in agreement.
