Jinghong and Youhuang's dual swords combined, smashing the Electric Snake's obsession once again.
As the Lightning Tribulation ended, the rolling black clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, and the sky returned to its calm state.
Mid-stage of Soul-Wandering!
Primordial Truth was vast and profound, understanding the mysteries of the heavens and the earth. She advanced so quickly.
It took only two hundred years within the Orb to advance to the mid-stage of Soul-Wandering.
Even in her dreams, her past self couldn't have imagined this.
Lin Qingluo summoned back Tianlei, Jinghong, and Youhuang while sensing the long-lost and overflowing Spiritual Power in her Golden Core. She felt an indescribable excitement.

“Immortal, congratulations! I admire you so much.”
The servant girl rushed out of the Reception Hall with a combination of surprise and joy, her eyes twinkling with admiration.
“Shield, thank you.”
Lin Qingluo returned the shield to her, sincerely expressing her gratitude.
“No need to thank, no need to thank.”
The servant girl waved her hands hurriedly, her ears turning red with embarrassment: “I didn't help much, it's quite embarrassing.”
“What's your name?”
Lin Qingluo had a good impression of her and asked with a smile.
“Chu Lian.”
The servant girl shyly twirled her hair and subconsciously explained: “Lian as in 'lotus,' not 'pity.'”
“A lotus, huh.”
Lin Qingluo's eyes sparkled upon hearing the word 'lotus,' and she couldn't help but feel a sense of closeness.
“Immortal.”
Chu Lian held the shield, her eyes filled with hope: “Can you tell me your name?”
“Me?”
Lin Qingluo smiled, pretending to be mysterious, and blinked her eyes: “You'll find out soon.”
“Ah, right, how stupid of me.”
Chu Lian realized her mistake and slapped her forehead in frustration: “The Immortal's Identity Token will have her name on it.”
“Don't slap so hard.”
Lin Qingluo was amused and teased her: “Don't blame me if it makes you silly.”
“Um.”
Chu Lian was embarrassed and retracted her hand.
“Hehe.”
Lin Qingluo's mood was cheerful, and her laughter filled her eyes.
*
The two of them chatted and entered the Reception Hall, where all the attendants and servant girls looked at them with awe.
Lin Qingluo didn't mind their gazes and returned to her seat, waiting for the processing of her Identity Token.
Chu Lian quickly took away the teacup and brewed a new pot of tea before placing it in front of Lin Qingluo.
“Sit down and let's continue chatting.”
Lin Qingluo saw Chu Lian's sincerity and considered her a friend worth getting to know, planning to get acquainted with her.
“I can't sit in the Reception Hall, servant girls are not allowed to. It's against the rules.”
Chu Lian glanced around and whispered, hiding her face with her hand: “If the head elder in charge finds out, I'll be punished and have my spirit stones deducted.”
“How many spirit stones do you get working at the Immortal Ascension Platform every month?”
Lin Qingluo found it amusing but didn't press her further.
Chu Lian twirled her hair awkwardly, smiling: “Five hundred High-grade Spirit Stones.”
“That's it?”
Having cultivated for countless years in the Spirit Realm, Lin Qingluo was well-acquainted with the prices there.
Five hundred High-grade Spirit Stones barely covered daily expenses, not even enough to buy an ordinary Mid-grade Spirit Pill.
“Sigh.”
Chu Lian let out a soft sigh, a trace of sadness appeared: “My mana is not high, only at the eighth level of Qi Condensation, and I have the Four Mixed Spirit Roots that others despise. There's no hope of joining a Sect to cultivate. Being able to work as a guide at the Immortal Ascension Platform and scrape by on Spirit Stones is already lucky.”
She only earned five hundred Spirit Stones a month but unhesitatingly gave her life-saving shield to a stranger.
This girl was kind-hearted and sincere, which was truly rare in the treacherous Cultivation World.
After a moment of reflection, Lin Qingluo had made her decision: “This Immortal is new here and unfamiliar with the Spirit Realm. Are you willing to be my guide and accompany me to the Ascension Tournament? As payment, I'll give you two thousand High-grade Spirit Stones every month.”
