The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 234 Moon Chaser

Before long, at the summit of the Holy Sword Sect's main peak, the sea of ​​clouds surged and boiled.

Countless spirit birds danced in the sky, their light constantly illuminating the scene.

A huge bronze tablet floated in the air, its ancient and vigorous characters shimmering with a faint golden glow in the sunlight.

At the top of the list, the words "Cold Smoke of the Holy Sword Sect" stood out prominently, followed by the names of powerful figures from the Jade Purity Sect and the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.

Chen Jinshu's name was prominently engraved in the fifth position, right next to Zheng Shaosi in fourth place.

"Xuanming Sect, Chen Jinshu, fifth in the Golden Core stage!" The deep voice of the Holy Sword Sect Master rang out.

Chen Jinshu took a deep breath and stepped forward with his senior brother Zheng Shaosi.

The sect leader of the Holy Sword Sect personally handed two storage rings to the two individuals.

The ring felt warm and smooth to the touch. When I probed it with my divine sense, I found a spacious interior with piles of spirit stones like small mountains, neatly arranged bottles of pills brimming with spiritual energy, and several magical artifacts and talismans radiating precious light.

However, what truly attracted Chen Jinshu was a magical treasure floating in the central area.

It was a flying shuttle.

The entire piece is a deep turquoise color, and its streamlined body seems to be carved from a single piece of jade containing starlight, with a halo of light flowing across its surface like water ripples.

The head is not sharp, but exquisitely crafted into the head of a blue phoenix with its neck outstretched and a long cry. Its eyes seem to contain stars, and its feathers are clearly visible, exuding an ancient and noble charm.

The tail feathers resemble the outstretched tail feathers of a blue phoenix, flowing gracefully and dynamically.

With just a touch of divine sense, one can feel the immense wind spirit power and astonishing speed contained within it.

"The Blue Phoenix Chases the Moon".

The Holy Sword Sect Master's voice carried a hint of smugness and arrogance, his gaze seemingly sweeping over the beast-taming bracelet on Chen Jinshu's wrist.

The phoenix astonished him for a long time.

There is actually an ancient divine beast, the Azure Phoenix, with such pure bloodline in this world.

This flying shuttle, cast in the style of the Azure Phoenix, is a perfect match.

"A fourth-grade superior flying spirit treasure, imbued with the essence of the Nine Heavens Gale and the charm of the Azure Phoenix Divine Feathers, capable of traveling a thousand miles in an instant. I hope you will use it wisely."

"Thank you, Sect Master of the Holy Sword Sect!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jinshu raised her hand in response, her heart filled with excitement. This treasure was not only incredibly fast, but it also resonated subtly with her Yinshan Sparrow bloodline, as if it were a destined object.

That night, at the secluded courtyard on Hanyuan Peak, the night was cool and still.

After the senior brothers and sisters had just finished their gathering and left, Chen Jinshu gazed at their figures for a long time before taking out the Azure Phoenix Chasing the Moon Shuttle and placing it on the table.

The Yinshan Sparrow transformed into a small bird and affectionately touched the head of the Azure Phoenix with its beak, emitting a cheerful chirp. The light emanating from its body seemed to shimmer slightly in response, as if imbued with a spirit.

"You like it?" Chen Jinshu smiled faintly upon seeing this.

"Clang clang!" The Yinshan Sparrow nodded vigorously, and the tiny blue-red shimmering light on its tail feathers shone even brighter.

"Okay, it's ours from now on."

Chen Jinshu smiled and carefully put the shuttle away.

She took out the ancient scroll given to her by her master and slowly unfurled it.

The edges of the parchment are worn, but the ink is still clear.

At the center of the map is an area in Tianxuan Prefecture called "Zangyin Gorge" circled in scarlet cinnabar. Next to it is a small inscription in regular script: "Ancient Battlefield of Sound Cultivators, suspected to be the place where Nascent Soul Sound Cultivators fell."

……

The following morning, the Xuanming Sect's enormous spirit ship hovered above the Huangshazhou dock, ready to set sail for its return voyage.

The wind whipped up yellow sand, making a howling sound.

"Junior Sister!" Dai Yuzhu's eyes reddened as she rushed forward and hugged Chen Jinshu tightly, her voice choked with sobs, "Ten years...you've been all alone, you must come back safely!"

"Don't worry, Seventh Senior Sister, I will." Chen Jinshu hugged her back and gently patted her back. Bu Yuanxiang stepped forward and placed a warm jade array plate into Chen Jinshu's hand: "'Minor Sumeru Concealment Array' is an old array artifact. It can conceal one's form and aura, and hide the secrets of heaven. It may be useful in a critical moment. Junior Sister, please be careful."

"Thank you very much, Third Senior Sister." Chen Jinshu accepted the gift solemnly, feeling a deep sense of gratitude.

Zheng Shaosi patted her shoulder, his gaze steady yet concerned: "Tianxuan Prefecture is rife with demonic activity, unlike any sect. Be cautious in everything you do, and don't be reckless. Ten years from now, your senior brother will be waiting for you to return to the Xuanming Sect to spar with me!"

"I have learned your teachings, Senior Brother," Chen Jinshu said with a smile and a nod.

Shui Huanmeng stepped forward last, her crimson robes remaining perfectly still in the wind and sand.

She didn't say much, but gave Chen Jinshu a deep look, conveying a thousand words in that single glance.

"Go." The master's voice was calm and undisturbed.

Chen Jinshu took a step back and bowed deeply to his master and fellow disciples.

When he stood up, there was no hesitation in his eyes.

With a flick of her wrist, the azure-green Azure Phoenix Chasing the Moon Shuttle appeared in her palm, and she infused it with spiritual energy.

"Buzz!"

A clear and melodious cry seemed to come from the heavens, and a sudden burst of azure light illuminated the surrounding yellow sand as if it were a blue sky.

In an instant, the shuttle transformed into a size of three zhang (approximately 13 meters), its exquisite blue phoenix head raised towards the sky, its tail feathers scattering stardust-like specks of light like tassels.

In an instant, a powerful and agile wind spirit swept out, fluttering the clothes of everyone present.

Chen Jinshu flashed and stood beside the Azure Phoenix with its head on a shuttle.

The titmouse landed happily on her shoulder and carefully clutched her clothes.

She glanced one last time in the direction of her master and the others, then looked away without lingering.

"gone."

With a thought, the Azure Phoenix Chasing the Moon Shuttle let out a clear cry that seemed to pierce through the clouds and split rocks, transforming into a streak of azure light that tore through the yellowish sky and disappeared into the western horizon in an instant.

……

Huangshazhou Wharf.

The people from Leiyin Temple and Chiyan Sect stared at the fleeting blue light in the sky, their eyes filled with a mixture of light and darkness.

"Senior Brother Wunian, this woman is far too arrogant. All she did was break your inner demon illusion." Younian, standing beside Wunian, said to his senior brother with dissatisfaction.

"Shut up! Is this how you cultivate Buddhism and your mind?" Wu Nian's eyes flashed with a cold light as he looked at his junior brother with reproach.

"Junior brother knows his mistake. Senior brother, please forgive me." Upon hearing this, You Nian's face immediately turned pale, and he quickly raised his hand to apologize.

Wu Nian withdrew his gaze and slowly returned it to the blue sky.

"In the end, we are simply outmatched in strength. I only hope that you have a smooth journey." He muttered to himself, quickly averted his gaze, and walked into the sect's cabin.

Not far away, Phoenix Nest Master gazed at that patch of green, his eyes filled with undisguised jealousy and resentment.

The Azure Phoenix Chasing the Moon Shuttle should have belonged to her, Phoenix Nesting Immortal, and she had been preparing for this battle for several years.

He even went so far as to give away his phoenix spirit beast to the sect elder in exchange for the phoenix family's secret technique, "Transformation of Fire".

Unexpectedly, it ended up falling into someone else's hands. How could she possibly be at peace with that?
"Does Martial Aunt Fengqi want the Azure Phoenix Shuttle?" A disciple of the Phoenix Clan lowered his eyes and came to her side to ask in a low voice.

Master Fengqi did not reply, but simply looked at him with the same indifferent gaze one would give to a subordinate.

The newcomer became even more respectful and then said, "It is rumored that the assassins of the Azure Sea Sect specialize in assassinating True Immortal cultivators. They are elusive and leave no trace."

"Arrogant! How dare you speak ill of a True Person? Do you really have a death wish?" Upon hearing this, True Person Fengqi's eyes suddenly darkened, as if he had touched a sore spot, and he immediately rebuked him.

The Phoenix Clan member turned pale and immediately knelt down to beg for mercy, his body trembling like a leaf.

Then, Master Fengqi's lips curled slightly, and with a wave of his hand, the disciple's tongue was silently and forcefully pulled out.

"Guards! This man has dared to speak ill of a True Immortal. He has abandoned his spirit boat and is left to fend for himself!"
