A Jindan elder said solemnly, "If the situation is really as you said, then it's fine. But if she doesn't have the Pure Heart Lotus, you are guilty of falsely accusing a fellow disciple."
Gu Letian felt a little panicky. If he failed to find the Pure Heart Lotus Seed from Xu Chunniang and was accused of falsely accusing his fellow disciples, it would affect the reputation he had worked so hard to build.
It is very likely that this will even cause the Master to dislike you.
He calmed himself down and suppressed the panic in his heart. He saw her collect the Pure Heart Lotus Seeds with his own eyes, so it couldn't be fake.
"Disciple knows."
The Jindan elder retracted his gaze and looked at the accused female foundation-building disciple, "Hand over your storage ring."
Two storage rings were quickly presented to the master. Elder Jindan took a quick look and saw everything inside. There were no Pure Heart Lotus Seeds at all.
He frowned and scanned the body of the accused female disciple with his spiritual sense, but found nothing unusual.
"Have you obtained the Pure Heart Lotus Seed?"
Xu Chunniang nodded, "It is true that I was lucky enough to obtain a Pure Heart Lotus Seed, but I swallowed that lotus seed when I was building my foundation."
In addition to being used as medicine, the Pure Heart Lotus can also be taken directly when breaking through a realm to resist the invasion of inner demons.
If taken during foundation building, the success rate can be increased by 30%; if taken during the breakthrough to golden elixir, the success rate can be increased by 10%; even if taken during the breakthrough to Nascent Soul, it still has certain effects and is quite precious.
When Xu Chunniang entered Xiaoze Realm, she was only at the ninth level of Qi training. When she came out, she had already reached the foundation-building stage. It was reasonable for her to take the Pure Heart Lotus Seeds.
Elder Jindan secretly felt it was a pity that this female disciple had used up the precious Pure Heart Lotus Seeds just for the sake of building the foundation. She was really wasting a gift from heaven.
It’s just that the spiritual object was originally obtained by her and had been consumed a long time ago, so there is no point in saying anything else.
He returned the storage ring to Xu Chunniang, looked at Gu Letian who was standing beside him in a panic, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.
"Because of jealousy towards a fellow disciple, he falsely accused others and went to the Criminal Division of the main peak to receive punishment."
Gu Letian's face turned pale. If he really went to the Criminal Department, his guilt would be confirmed.
As the eldest senior brother of Danfeng, I have lost all my face. I don’t know how the master will blame me.
He gritted his teeth and pleaded, "Elder, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time. I really didn't mean it. Who could have known that Xu...Uncle Master, would have eaten the lotus seeds when he broke through the realm?"
The Golden Core Elder was unmoved and spoke calmly, "Whether you did it intentionally or unintentionally, the sect's rules are not for show. You are unwilling to go to the Criminal Division. Do you want them to take you there?"
Gu Letian shuddered and dared not say anything more.
If the matter really gets to the point where the Criminal Department comes to arrest him, the consequences will only be more serious than they are now.
Xu Chunniang watched Gu Letian's frustrated back coldly, with no emotion in her heart.
If she hadn't accidentally obtained the walnut world and the pure heart lotus seed from the Endless Mountain Soul, she would really have found an opportunity to eat it.
Once she showed the Pure Heart Lotus Seed to others, the sect would force her to hand it over. After all, this kind of spiritual object was not something that could be obtained easily.
Her cultivation level of the first foundation building stage is not good enough in front of a group of Jindan elders. How can she protect the lotus seeds
As for the soul-nourishing wood, although it was obtained from Xiaoze Realm, it was a gift from the lady in the tomb.
While obtaining this item, she fulfilled the Queen's last wish and destroyed the four-winged flying snake and the strange witchcraft.
Therefore, Xu Chunniang had no psychological burden in hiding the Soul-Nourishing Wood and the Purifying Heart Lotus.
"Don't even think about it. Gu Letian just can't stand seeing you doing well."
Kong Huan came over and patted Xu Chunniang on the shoulder.
"The other two have already left. Let's go to the main peak together. Alas, I really don't want to call you Uncle Master Xu, but there is no other way. Who made you establish your foundation first?"
Xu Chunniang was a little puzzled, "What are you going to do at the main peak?"
Kong Huan rolled his eyes and was about to speak when his gaze suddenly fell on Xu Chunniang's face, "Hey, why is your birthmark gone?"
After Xu Chunniang established her foundation, he was busy climbing the mountain and didn't pay attention just now, so he only now discovered that the birthmark on her face was gone.
"After building the foundation, it will naturally disappear."
Xu Chunniang said indifferently.
When she was young, she complained that God was unfair for giving her this ugly and conspicuous birthmark.
But there is no point in complaining. When you can't change it, you can only choose to accept it.
So what if she has a facial flaw? As she becomes stronger, the news about her birthmark becomes less and less frequent.
More voices were discussing her skills, cultivation, and spiritual weapons.
Kong Huan nodded suddenly, "Yes, building the foundation is a process of cleansing the marrow and cutting the bones, removing the dross and retaining the essence. It is not surprising that it can remove this small birthmark."
"What did you just say you were going to the main peak for?"
Kong Huan slapped his head and said, "I forgot that you are an outer disciple. Every time the small lake is closed, all those who are recognized by the holy mountain must go to the main peak and tell the process in detail. Of course, if it involves personal privacy, you can keep it to yourself."
Fearing that Xu Chunniang would not understand, he added, "The sect does this to discover some patterns, so that future disciples will have a greater chance of obtaining treasures. This is how we accumulate the bits and pieces about the Holy Mountain."
Xu Chunniang nodded, followed Kong Huan, and walked to a post boat.
Kong Huan introduced, "These post boats were built by the inner sect peaks to facilitate the travel of Qi training disciples. Although Master Xu has already established his foundation, I think he has not yet learned the art of flying a sword. He can use these as a means of transportation. All he needs to do is pay a certain amount of spirit stones."
Xu Chunniang took a quick look and saw all kinds of means of transportation, from smaller ones like kites and paper cranes to larger ones like shuttles and flying boats.
There is a stone tablet next to it, which clearly explains their usage and rental price.
Kong Huanle said happily, "This paper crane only costs five spirit stones to use once, which is good value for money. And the riding experience is also very good. The disadvantage is that it is a bit slow."
After paying five spirit stones to the foundation-building monk who was guarding the post boat, he took out a paper crane as tall as a person and injected wind spiritual energy into the formation to activate it.
Suddenly, the paper crane seemed to come alive, stretched out its wings, and then flapped into the air.
Xu Chunniang stepped forward to pay the spirit stones and also received a paper crane, infusing it with wind spiritual power.
"It is strictly forbidden to fight with others while riding a paper crane. If you damage the paper crane, you must pay compensation according to the price."
After the foundation-building cultivator gave the routine instructions, he ignored the two of them.
"Uncle Xu doesn't know the way, just follow me."
After saying that, Kong Huan took the lead and sat on the paper crane, heading towards the main peak.
Seeing this, Xu Chunniang recalled the method of controlling a paper crane that she had seen before, sat on the paper crane and followed Kong Huan.
