“Let’s dig in!”

Lu Xuan disregarded the heat, turning over the steamed red crab shell to reveal the golden and plump crab meat inside.

He tore off a pair of claws, giving one to the Cloud Leopard and one to the Wind Sparrow Fledgling. Then, all three of them succumbed to the delicious taste together.

“Tweet tweet!”

Suddenly, a crisp bird call rang beside his ears.

Lu Xuan put down the crab shell in his hand and looked towards the sound. In the courtyard, a white Luan Bird had somehow sneaked in.

The Luan Bird, dragging its snow-white feathers, stared at Lu Xuan with eyes as black as gems, and in its gaze, Lu Xuan sensed its desire for the delicious food.

“Guests are welcome, would you like to come and try some?

As soon as he saw the white Luan Bird, Lu Xuan’s eyes couldn’t help but focus

on it.

His cave dwelling was guarded by a second-rank Protective Array. Yet, this Luan Bird was able to sneak in without making a sound.

He scanned it with his spiritual sense and detected that its strength was likely above the third rank. Thinking of this, a warm smile appeared on Lu Xuan’s face, and he invited the white Luan Bird to enjoy the food.

The white Luan Bird was highly intelligent. It understood the meaning of Lu Xuan’s words, its long tail feathers swished, and it fluttered over like a piece of white jade.

Lu Xuan passed it a small piece of plump crab meat, and the Luan Bird nodded to him, pecking the crab meat into its stomach.

“Tweet tweet!”

It let out a clear cry and left with a satisfied expression, not causing any

changes to the Protective Array.

“What kind of beast can silently pass through a second-rank Protective Array?

Lu Xuan marveled inwardly. The fact that it didn’t make any noise and was able to freely move through the Protective Array indicates that the white Luan Bird just now had a very special ability.

-Most ordinary third-rank demonic beasts find it very difficult to do this. I wonder what the background of this White Luan Bird is.”

Lu Xuan thought curiously. The Luan Bird was too mysterious, and it wasn’t good to inquire into its origins. After it swiftly departed, his attention returned to the crab meat on the table, which was about to be devoured entirely.

“Hey hey hey, you two, leave some for me!”

“Brother Lu, I’m full!”

With a pop, Baili Jianqing placed his bowl and chopsticks on the table and said with satisfaction.

He accepted Lu Xuan’s invitation to come over for a crab feast.

Lu Xuan’s cooking skills made his mouth water, and he had eaten five big

bowls of spirit rice in one go.

“Have some spirit fruit to aid digestion.”

Lu Xuan served several plates of different kinds of spirit fruit. Baili Jianqing picked up a spirit fruit that looked like agate and stuffed it into his mouth.

With a slight bite, the spirit fruit seemed to explode in his mouth, filling every corner of his mouth with sweet juices.

“Brother Lu, you really know how to enjoy life, living such a heavenly life!”

Baili Jianqing, supporting his round belly, lay on the wooden chair and exclaimed.

“Well, it just so happens that an Iron Claw Demon Crab I was raising has matured, so I invited you over for a crab feast.”

Lu Xuan said with a smile. Not long after the first Iron Claw Crab had matured, another one entered the maturing stage. The remaining white light cluster also gave off the second-rank delicious dish, ‘Crab Spirit Paste’.

As he thought of Baili Jianqing, he invited him over. Using the Iron Claw Demon Crab as the main dish, accompanied by some other demon beast meat, he made a full table of dishes.

“By the way, Jianqing, you mentioned before that there are occasional gatherings in the sect where fellow disciples exchange treasures. Can you tell me more?”

Lu Xuan cleaned up the table and asked Baili Jianqing.

“Brother Lu, are you interested in attending?”

“I do have this idea. I have some second-rank spirit plants in hand, the quality of which are quite good. It’s somewhat uneconomical to sell them directly at the Sword Gate Town shops, so I want to see if I can exchange them for some desirable treasures.”

Lu Xuan spoke gravely.

“To my knowledge, there are numourous cultivators in the sect who regularly organize such gatherings. They invite varying numbers of fellow sect members to share cultivation experiences, discuss formula methods and sword Dao, and exchange cultivation resources and treasures in their possession.

“Usually there are all kinds of thresholds to meet, such as cultivation level, background, types of treasures, and so on.”

Baili Jianqing was well-versed in the affairs of the sect and spoke confidently. “Are there any similar gatherings coming up that I could attend?” Lu Xuan asked curiously.

“I know of one called the Qingtan Small Gathering, organized by a person named Li Qingtan, an Inner Sect Disciple who was specially invited to enter the

Inner Sect.”

Once an Outer Sect Disciple reaches the Foundation Establishment Stage of their cultivation, they are automatically promoted to Inner Sect Disciple. However, there are also those with special talent who are invited to join the Inner Sect during the Qi Practicing Stage, becoming an Inner Sect Disciple as well.”

“This Qingtan Small Gathering is fairly private, with not many cultivators participating. If a cultivator wishes to join for the first time, they must be introduced by an existing participant.”

Baili Jianqing continued.

“Often at the gathering, many rare treasures appear, such as magic artifacts, charms, elixirs, spirit plants, demon beast materials, and so on. Almost every time, a third grade level treasure will appear.

At the gathering, each person takes turns presenting the cultivation treasures they have available for exchange, and details the types of treasures they want in return.”

“The transactions are usually done via barter trade, although privately, one can also use spirit stones or sword marks to make deals. There are no hard and fast rules about this.”

Lu Xuan nodded, signifying his understanding.

“Brother Lu, would you like me to take you there? The next Qingtan Small Gathering will be held in about three days.”

Baili Jianqing squinted his eyes, smiling as he spoke.

“That would be a great help.”

Lu Xuan didn’t hesitate and agreed along the lines of Bath Jianqing.

“Then, Brother Lu, please make early preparations. I’ll come find you in three days.”

Baili Jianqing bid farewell to Lu Xuan and left the cave residence.

Lu Xuan recalled that he had quite a few third-grade level treasures on him, such as the Hidden Spirit Cloak, the Sword of Wind and Thunder Pill, the Immaculate Jade, the Dust Reduction Pill, the Spirit Cleansing Talisman … However, he had no intention of parting with them yet, unless he came across a rare high-rank spirit seed. Then he would consider using the Dust Reduction Pill or the Spirit Cleansing Talisman in exchange.

His main intention was to part with the ten or so leaves of Clear Wonderful Spiritual Tea and the second-level Dark Marrow Mushroom he possessed. He wanted to see if he could exchange them for a spirit seed that he needed or the method to condense a spirit seed.

As for other items, he would assess the need as and when they came. If he stumbled upon a suitable treasure, he would see if he could make a trade for it. With that in mind, Lu Xuan quickly made up his mind.

Three days went by in a flash. Early in the morning, Baili Jianqing’s voice was heard from outside.

“Brother Lu, are you ready? I’m here!”

“I’m ready.”

Lu Xuan replied, stepping out into the courtyard. Baili Jianqing produced a Flying Boat Magical Tool, and Lu Xuan lightly hopped onto it, standing on one side of the Flying Boat.

A spiritual energy shield was generated around the Flying Boat, completely blocking out the rapid airflow of high altitude. They sped along, weaving amongst the various mountains.

After a moment, the Flying Boat landed on a beautiful mountain peak.

Halfway up the mountain stood numerous pavilions streaming with water. It was incredibly elegant.

Baili Jianqing led Lu Xuan directly to the front of an elegant and simple old courtyard.

“This is Brother Lu Xuan, a ninth-level Qi Practitioner who specializes in cultivating spiritual plants and is here at the Qingtan Small Gathering for the first time.”

Baili Jianqing introduced him smoothly to a Qi Practitioner at the completion stage of cultivation at the entrance.

“Welcome, Junior Brother Lu.”

The cultivator was a handsome and fair young man with a starry gaze, exuding an extraordinary presence. He glanced at Lu Xuan and said with a smile..
