Everlasting

"Thousand Star Island."

Chen Nianzhi looked at the islands marked on the map and his expression moved slightly.

Qianxing Island is 30,000 miles across and is considered a rare giant island in the Yan Kingdom.

This island is not the property of the Deng Immortal Clan, but the spiritual island of the Yan Kingdom Immortal Clan Alliance. A barter conference is held here every ten years.

It can be said that Qianxing Island is the top three Xiuxianfang city in Yan Kingdom. In terms of status, it is not weaker than Qingyang Fang of Qingyang Sect. Therefore, every time the conference is held, it will attract a large number of foundation-building monks from Yan Kingdom to participate.

It is said that in all previous barter conferences, the number of Foundation Establishment monks participating in the conference will not be less than 200, and precious third-level treasures often appear in the conference, so it is almost always possible to attract monks from the Purple Mansion.

Qianxing Island is a full 300,000 miles away from Yanshanfang. This time, Chen Nianzhi let go of his speed and flew with his sword, covering 30,000 miles in one day. It only took more than ten days to reach Qianxing Island.

After arriving at Qianxing Island, Chen Nianzhi heard a voice as soon as he entered Qianxing Island Fang City.

"Senior...Senior." He looked down and found a dirty little girl looking at him timidly, and said nervously: "Senior...do you need a guide?"

As if she was scared, the little girl's eyes almost overflowed with water as she twitched her fingers and said.

"Just one...two, just two steamed buns."

Chen Nianzhi's eyebrows moved slightly, and he bought a few steamed buns. He knelt down and handed them to her and said, "How old are you?"

"Seven years old."

"Seven years old?"

Chen Nianzhi shook his head and laughed, took out a spiritual stone, thought about it, then changed it into a few ingots of silver and handed it to her: "Take it to buy food."

The girl gnawed on the steamed bun, took the silver, held it tightly and said, "Grandpa told me that you can't take other people's things for free."

"Let me show you the way. I know all the roads here."

"Okay, then you can lead the way."

Chen Nianzhi smiled a little. Under her leadership, Lingmiao Pavilion, where the barter conference was held every time, discovered that the next barter conference would not start until three years later.

When the little girl heard that he was going to stay on Qianxing Island for three years, she quickly took him to find the cave rental office on Qianxing Island.

He rented a second-level Lingquan Cave, and after visiting the cave, he nodded with satisfaction.

Then he was about to say goodbye to the little girl. After thinking about it, he asked, "Have you ever tested your spiritual roots?"

"Testing spiritual roots..." The girl shook her head and said timidly: "Gui, I want... spiritual stones."

"Stretch out your hand."

Chen Nianzhi shook his head helplessly, stretched out his hand to hold her wrist, and urged his true energy to penetrate into her body.

As soon as a ray of true energy entered her veins, Chen Nianzhi felt a bone-chilling feeling, which even made him feel cold.

"This is."

His eyes moved, showing a hint of surprise, and he quickly activated the True Essence Test again.

Sure enough, he was not disappointed. Cold spiritual energy penetrated into the little girl's meridians again.

"Ice Spirit Root."

Chen Nianzhi showed joy. There was only one supernatural spirit root in ten thousand, and Yu County might not be able to produce one in a hundred years. He never expected that he would meet such a good seedling during a long journey.

Seeing that he had finished the test, the little girl looked nervous, expecting and fearing at the same time.

Chen Nianzhi smiled, touched her head and asked, "What's your name?"

"My name is Yaya."

It seemed that the alien spirit root was aroused by his true energy. The little girl's face turned red from the cold and she said shivering.

"Yaya." Chen Nianzhi used his true energy to clear her cold air, and then said, "Where is your grandpa?"

"grandfather."

The little girl looked at a small bottle on her chest with red eyes and said.

Only then did Chen Nianzhi realize that the little girl's grandfather had passed away. No wonder she was living on the streets and was so excited just for one or two steamed buns.

After touching the little girl's head, Chen Nianzhi smiled and said, "In that case, you can follow me from now on."

"Okay, thank you uncle." She clenched her fists excitedly.

"We met on Qianxing Island, and your name is Yaya, so your name will be Chen Xingya from now on."

"..."

Adopting a little girl with supernatural spiritual roots, I don't know whether Chen Nianzhi has a good chance or is a blessing to the little girl.

After all, if she hadn't happened to meet Chen Nianzhi, she might have frozen to death unknowingly in a corner of the city. A generation of geniuses with supernatural spiritual roots might also have died young and unknown.

After adopting the little girl, Chen Nianzhi passed on the Ming Yuan Dao Ze Jue to her, and then began to enlighten her.

For Chen Nianzhi, it is not too difficult to provide spiritual enlightenment to young children. After all, he also raised Xian Ling and Xian Yan, and now it is not troublesome to take care of a foreign spirit root.

Yaya is very smart, she understands things early, and learns quickly. She knows that asking Chen Nianzhi for advice after he finishes his practice will not have much impact on Chen Nianzhi's practice.

In this way, time flies by, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

This year, there was a surge of spiritual energy in Chen Nianzhi's Lingquan Cave. A large amount of spiritual energy surged out from the spiritual spring, and was sucked into the meridians by Chen Nianzhi. Finally, it turned into true energy and broke through an invisible barrier.

"Eight levels of foundation building."

Chen Nianzhi opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and showed a look of joy.

Only less than eight years have passed since he broke through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment. His cultivation has taken a small step forward again, breaking through to the eighth level of Foundation Establishment, and he is much closer to the realm of Zifu.

After slightly consolidating his cultivation, Chen Nianzhi walked out of the Lingquan retreat room.

Yaya had been waiting for a long time. She saw Chen Nianzhi coming out of seclusion and said quickly.

"Uncle Nianzhi, the Barter Conference is about to begin today."

"Um."

Chen Nianzhi nodded. If the Barter Conference was not about to start, he would still be in seclusion to consolidate his cultivation.

After telling Yaya not to leave easily in the cave, Chen Nianzhi went straight to Lingmiao Pavilion.

The Qianxing Island Barter Conference was indeed one of the grandest barter conferences in the Yan Kingdom. Chen Nianzhi took a quick glance after entering the venue and found that there were more than 260 people participating in the conference, and the weakest ones were They are all foundation-building monks.

There were even some figures whose auras were extremely powerful, making Chen Nianzhi feel a little troublesome. They were obviously monks in the Purple Mansion Realm.

Generally speaking, few monks from the Purple Mansion attended the barter conferences between the foundation-building monks.

However, the Thousand Star Island Barter Conference was able to attract several Zifu monks, which was obviously enough to prove that a barter conference of this level was very precious.

Chen Nianzhi knew very well that the number of monks in the Zi Mansion was very rare, and this kind of barter conference between monks often took decades to hold.

For example, the Chu State's Zifu Barter Conference is usually held only once every thirty years, because there are only a hundred or so Zifu monks in the entire Chu State. If it is held once every ten years, the number of people participating in the conference will be reduced a lot each time. .
