Chapter 1147: Chapter 1144: City Lord of Tianji City Chapter 1147: Chapter 1144: City Lord of Tianji City “'The thief was cunning, and Elder Jieyin and others made their conjectures according to common sense. It's inevitable to have doubts about me, but fortunately, the matter has now been clarified,' Shen Luo waved his hand and said.

Qin Shan and Li He were also here, and at the indication of Jieyin Daoist, the two also expressed their apologies to Shen Luo. However, Qin Shan's expression seemed very reluctant, but Shen Luo did not mind.

'Friend Shen, there is still some Earth Mother's Essence left. This is your possession, please take good care of it,' Wu Man'er approached Shen Luo and handed over the porcelain bottle.

Shen Luo probed into the bottle with his Divine Sense and found, to his surprise, that half of it was still remaining, which secretly delighted him.

'Friend Wu, are you alright?' He took the porcelain bottle and asked.

Jiang Shentian had stopped channeling mana into Wu Man'er's body. Her complexion had turned pale once again, even paler than before.

'It's nothing serious, just a bit of a large consumption,' Wu Man'er shook her head and said.

'Friend Wu has worked hard. This is the Rejuvenation Pill from my Wuzhuang View, which is quite effective in restoring vitality. If Friend Wu doesn't despise it, please accept it,' Jieyin Daoist took out a White Jade Small Bottle and handed it over.

Wu Man'er did not decline and accepted the small bottle.

'Friend Wu, please rest for now. I will fetch the Ginseng Fruit Tree Essence for you later and bring it to you,' Jieyin Daoist said.

'Then I'll trouble Elder Jieyin,' Wu Man'er was indeed somewhat tired. After thanking him, she left the place accompanied by Qingfeng Mingyue.

'Friend Shen and Jiang Daoist, you have also worked hard,' Jieyin Daoist turned to Shen Luo and Jiang Shentian and said.

Shen Luo and Jiang Shentian were quite exhausted from their rapid journey, so they didn't refuse and went down to rest.

The place where Shen Luo stayed was the same as before. After re-establishing the prohibition, he sat down with his legs crossed in the secret chamber and closed his eyes to practice.

He did not take out the One-yuan True Water for cultivation but instead circulated the Nameless Cultivation Technique to stabilize his realm.

Lately, his cultivation level had improved consecutively, and his foundation was somewhat unstable. He would now be striking towards the True Immortal Stage and needed to thoroughly consolidate his foundation.

He had originally planned to consume the Wind and Thunder Immortal Date soon to enhance his cultivation and physical training, but given the current situation, he could only wait until his foundation was firm before consuming it.

The night passed quickly, and Shen Luo opened his eyes, about to get up.

'Who is it?' he suddenly looked towards the outer hall and called out sharply.

'Friend Shen has quite the keen spiritual awareness,' accompanied by a light laugh, a figure walked in — it was Zhenyuanzi.

Moreover, this time it was not a doppelganger formed by a Talisman but the real person.

'Elder Zhenyuanzi, you've returned,' Shen Luo quickly stood up, his heart filled with surprise.

He wasn't surprised that Zhenyuanzi could break through the prohibition outside his abode–Zhenyuanzi's cultivation had already reached the Heavenly Venerate Realm, and breaking his prohibition was a mere trifle. What he found strange was why Zhenyuanzi was looking for him now.

'I've just returned from the Heavenly Court and have already heard about the Ginseng fruit tree. Thank you for your substantial help, Friend Shen,' Zhenyuanzi bowed slightly in gratitude.

Facing such a formal gesture from a Heavenly Venerate, Shen Luo naturally did not dare to be careless. He hurriedly returned a courtesy and said, 'It was but a minor matter, unworthy of such thanks from an elder.'

“Friend Shen has no affiliation with Wuzhuang View, and was previously misunderstood and troubled by Elder Jieyin. Yet he bore no grudges and did not hesitate to toil by going to the Divine Wood Forest to retrieve Earth Mother's Essence and revive the Ginseng Fruit Tree. Receiving such a great favor, as the master of Wuzhuang View, naturally I must pay a visit to express my gratitude, thereby completing the proprieties,” Zhenyuanzi said slowly.

Hearing this, Shen Luo felt a great fondness for Zhenyuanzi. He was merely a minor character in the Great Mahayana Stage, yet Zhenyuanzi didn't use his power to oppress him, and spoke purely based on facts. This was truly the conduct of a true Immortal, which was impressive and humbling.

“Elder is too polite. The things I did were not entirely for Wuzhuang View; they were mainly to clear the suspicions against myself. May I ask if you have identified the source of the Demonic Poison and the Yin-Yang Dual Qi?” Shen Luo didn't want to dwell on the matter and shifted the conversation with his question.

“I have looked into it, and that mass of Yin-Yang Qi indeed comes from the Yin-Yang Dual Qi Bottle of Lion Camel Ridge,” Zhenyuanzi said slowly.

“It really was the doing of Lion Camel Ridge!” Shen Luo's expression changed slightly, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind instantly.

“Let's not talk about those matters for now. Friend Shen has spent a lot of energy and effort for Wuzhuang over this period of time. Without any token of appreciation, I would feel uneasy. I wonder if there's anything you desire, or anything you wish to do, where I and Wuzhuang View will certainly assist you with all our strength,” said Zhenyuanzi.

Shen Luo was momentarily stunned. What he wanted most now was to repair the jade pillow, but Zhenyuanzi had already said he was powerless to help.

“Since Senior Zhen Yuan is so generous, I shall not stand on ceremony. Some time ago, my body was contaminated with Demonic Qi, and I need some Pure Yang Treasures to protect my spirit.” He contemplated briefly before speaking.

“Pure Yang Treasures? That's quite a coincidence. I happen to have a Coiling Dragon Wall in my possession, an ancient Pure Yang treasure obtained many years ago, which formed from the skeleton of a Jade Yinyang Dragon after its death. It functions to protect one's spirit, and I'll present it to Friend Shen,” Zhenyuanzi said as he took out a dark red jade pendant and handed it over.

The jade pendant was simple and archaic in design, resembling a coiled red dragon with intricate patterns carved on its body. It looked rough, but there was a vibrant life force emitting from it, almost as if the dragon-shaped jade would come to life at any moment.

However, what mattered most was that the item was hot to the touch without burning, and a surge of Pure Yang Power penetrated directly into Shen Luo's body, steadying his heart and mind.

“What a wonderful item!” Shen Luo's eyes lit up.

The Coiling Dragon Wall contained an extraordinary amount of Pure Yang Power, second to none compared to his current Pure Yang Flying Sword, and it seemed to have a special effect on protecting the spirit. It would definitely be of great use in battling Demonic Qi in the future.

“Thank you very much, Elder Zhen Yuan, this item will be very useful for me.” He put away the Coiling Dragon Wall and expressed his sincere appreciation.

“It's just a Coiling Dragon Wall, not worth much. Using it to repay you still seems a little light. During my time at the Heavenly Court, I made some inquiries about repairing your jade pillow and managed to find some clues,” Zhenyuanzi said.

“Really?” Shen Luo was overjoyed to hear this.

“The prohibitions contained within your jade pillow are likely related to the Space-time Principle. Ordinary Artifact Refiners would find it extremely difficult to repair. In the current world, there is probably only one person who might be able to fix that jade pillow,” Zhenyuanzi explained.

“Who might that be? Please guide me, Senior Zhen Yuan,” Shen Luo asked as he bowed deeply.

“That person's identity is not so secret; you might have even met him. It is the City Lord of Tianji City. You could try your luck there,” Zhenyuanzi suggested.

“The Master of Tianji City? Thank you for the guidance, Elder Zhen Yuan,” Shen Luo murmured to himself, then thanked him once again.

Zhenyuanzi didn't discuss anything significant with Shen Luo afterward and simply chatted about the Divine Wood Forest and offered some advice on his cultivation before taking his leave.

Shen Luo stood silently inside the house for a moment, not going out but instead turning around to continue his cultivation in the secret chamber.

In the following days, he focused on cultivation within Wuzhuang View, honing the unstable foundation of his cultivation level that had risen sharply.

Wuzhuang View's attitude towards Shen Luo had changed significantly for the better, and they entertained him nearly every day.

After seven or eight days, as Shen Luo's cultivation foundation gradually stabilized, he then bid farewell and left.
