Chapter 1059: Chapter 1056: Unexpected Complications Chapter 1059: Chapter 1056: Unexpected Complications “Take this item to Iron Hat Alley in Luo Star City and find an Artifact Refiner named Luo San. Have him check what is written on this,” Shen Luo handed the mysterious jade plate to the Mirror Fiend.

That Luo San was the very Artifact Refinement Master he had met that year.

“Go to Luo Star City? Master, I am at a critical juncture breaking through my realm. Tear Demon Sister is about to perform a secret method to help me advance to the Middle Stage of Mahayana. Could you wait until after my breakthrough to go?” the Mirror Fiend asked.

“That's fine. There's no rush for this matter,” Shen Luo's gaze shifted as he nodded in agreement.

“Thank you, Master,” the Mirror Fiend said joyfully, bowing in gratitude.

“The key to breaking through to the Middle Stage of Mahayana is to repeatedly refine the mana or Demon Qi within your body. The purer it is, the smoother the breakthrough process will be…” Shen Luo recalled his experience of breaking through this realm in Dreamland and gave the Mirror Fiend a few tips and tricks.

Although the Mirror Fiend found it strange that Shen Luo knew these things, she listened carefully and committed them to memory.

A moment later, Shen Luo opened the Spirit Communicating Water Hole again and sent the Mirror Fiend back.

He didn't stay in the back mountain either but turned and returned to the Spring and Autumn Pavilion.

“Junior Brother Shen,” Zhou Fu had also returned and was cleaning up the remnants of the battle within the Spring and Autumn Pavilion. Seeing Shen Luo return, he quickly went to meet him.

“Zhou Fu, are there only you and your master left in the Spring and Autumn Pavilion now?” Shen Luo scanned the part of the pavilion where the coffins were buried.

The previously deceased disciples of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion had already been buried there.

“Apart from my master and me, there are a few disciples. They were sent out by my master to buy things and are not in the pavilion right now,” Zhou Fu said hastily.

Shen Luo hummed in acknowledgment, about to ask more about the affairs of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion, when he suddenly felt something and turned his head to look into the distance.

A black rainbow appeared at the end of the sky and sped towards them like a shooting star. In just a few breaths, it arrived above the Spring and Autumn Pavilion and descended, revealing Ghost General and Qin Ming.

Qin Ming was trembling, his face had gone white.

Being just a Qi Refining Cultivator, he had never flown in the sky before. The Ghost General had whisked him through the heavens and earth without shielding him from the turbulent airstreams, scaring him greatly.

“Brother Qin, are you alright?” Shen Luo gave the Ghost General a stern look and asked.

“I'm, I'm alright,” Qin Ming wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and forced a smile.

However, his still-trembling legs betrayed his true feelings.

Zhou Fu hurried forward to help Qin Ming to the side to rest.

“How did things go?” Shen Luo looked at the Ghost General.

“All taken care of, there's no longer a Black Cloud Valley in this world,” the Ghost General licked his lips and chuckled.

The fight had truly satisfied him.

“Your aura seems a bit chaotic. Did you meet an opponent?” Shen Luo examined the Ghost General, his brow slightly furrowing.

“Truly nothing escapes the Master. Indeed, there were some complications. When I was wiping out those bandits in Black Cloud Valley, an old Daoist at the Late Nascent Soul Stage happened to pass by. Daring to be presumptuous with me, I also slaughtered him but sustained a minor injury,” the Ghost General said with pride.

“What! You dare to harm someone at will?” Shen Luo's face turned ugly as he shouted angrily.

The Ghost General had been locked up for too long, his desire for slaughter erupting, affecting his divine wisdom. Seeing Shen Luo's furious face, the Ghost General then remembered that Shen Luo had always strictly forbidden him from killing indiscriminately.

“Please forgive me, Master. It was that grey-robed elder Daoist who struck first. I had no choice but to kill him,” the Ghost General said with his head bowed.

“Junior Brother Shen, the Ghost General Elder is right. It was indeed the old Daoist who struck first. It seems he wanted to capture the Ghost General Elder to make him his ghost pet, and that's when the Ghost General Elder killed him,” Qin Ming spoke from the side.

“Who was that person? Are there any clues left to trace?” After hearing this, Shen Luo's anger on his face slightly subsided as he asked.

“He did not report his name or origin, and I do not know it either. This is his storage magical tool, which I have not yet had the chance to examine,” the Ghost General said, taking out a black bracelet and passing it over.

Shen Luo took the bracelet and his divine sense entered it.

Inside, the collection was quite rich, with plenty of spiritual materials, elixirs, and other things, but they were naturally of little use to him.

Shen Luo's brows twitched, and he took out an object from the storage magical tool. It was a black token inlaid with a dark green gemstone. One side depicted a pattern of black flames, and the other side was engraved with the three large characters of “Tianyin Gate.”

“Tianyin Gate? What sect is this?” He looked towards Qin Ming.

“Tianyin Gate is a renowned major sect in Qingzhou, but its methods are sinister and cruel, and it is counted among the heretical sects, not recognized by most cultivation sects and aristocratic families,” Qin Ming replied.

Hearing this, Shen Luo nodded. Since that person was not a man of integrity, there was no issue with killing him.

“Considering Brother Qin's face, I will not pursue the matter this time. However, if you dare to kill at random again in the future, I will not let you off lightly!” He looked at the Ghost General and said coldly.

“Thank you, Master. I will definitely bear it in mind,” the Ghost General breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly nodded in agreement, and then turned into a wisp of black Qi, flying back into the Qiankun Bag.

Zhou Fu told Qin Ming about Shen Luo's plans to leave things behind for the revitalization of the sect, and Qin Ming was naturally overjoyed.

“This is what I should do. Here are some immortal jades, materials, talismanic instruments, magical instruments, and other things. I'll leave them to you, Brother Qin.” Shen Luo took out a storage magical tool he had prepared earlier and handed it to Qin Ming.

Qin Ming activated his mana and briefly inspected it, showing great joy on his face.

With these things, the strength of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion would surely rise rapidly. Coupled with Shen Luo, a great master, a return to glory was within reach.

“Here is also this jade pendant, which contains our sect's Pure Yang Scripture. It was given to me by the Senior Ancestor when the Spring and Autumn Pavilion was destroyed that year. Now that you are the Pavilion Master of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion, this item should be in your custody,” Shen Luo said, taking out an ancient jade pendant and handing it to Qin Ming.

“Pure Yang Scripture!” Qin Ming suddenly stood up, looking excitedly at the jade pendant in Shen Luo's hand.

As a disciple of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion, he was also aware of the Pure Yang Scripture. He thought it had been lost in the disaster that destroyed their sect that year, only to find out it still existed.

However, he did not take the jade pendant.

“This Pure Yang Scripture is far too precious, and with my low cultivation level, it's not safe to carry it with me. It's better for you to hold on to it, Junior Brother Shen. Besides, now that you have come back, the position of Pavilion Master naturally belongs to you.” Qin Ming took out a green token, on which were engraved the four big characters “Sect Leader Seal,” and presented it with both hands, placing it in front of Shen Luo.

“Although my cultivation level is high, running a sect is not my forte, and the affairs of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion will still rely on you, Brother Qin. As for this jade pendant, just take it, Brother Qin.” Shen Luo did not accept the token, pushing the jade pendant directly into Qin Ming's hands.

“With your profound cultivation, Junior Brother Shen, you should be the one to take charge of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion. And with the Pure Yang Scripture being so precious, how could I take it?” Qin Ming said quickly, waving his hands.
