The path of a practitioner is divided into three levels and nine realms, and each realm is a leap and an improvement.

The first three realms are about self-cultivation, which are divided into Qi refining, foundation building, and foundation breaking;

The first stage of Qi Refining is like a newly born flame, which needs to be tempered repeatedly to condense the essence of the body into one.

The second stage of foundation building is like the cornerstone of building a tall tower. It requires steady and resolute practice to make the true Qi in the body more solid.

The third realm, breaking the foundation, is to break through one's own limits, break the foundation of foundation building, and reach a whole new realm.

The middle three realms cultivate external objects, which are divided into golden elixir, building spirit, and breaking spirit;

In the Golden Elixir Stage, practitioners condense their own true energy into a golden elixir.

Building the spiritual realm focuses on improving the practitioner's ability to control spiritual objects.

To break through the spiritual realm, one must integrate spiritual objects into one's own practice.

The last three realms are the cultivation of the great Dao, which are divided into transformation of the spirit, enlightenment, and ascension.

The Sunset Sect is the mainstream of most sects, which requires labor in exchange for resources. In addition to practicing hard, disciples also need to participate in various commissioned tasks to hone themselves.

In Sunset Sect, only those who have broken through to the second level, Foundation Establishment Stage, are allowed to go down the mountain to take on commissions. Disciples in the Qi Refining Stage can only take on some chores within the sect, such as feeding spirit beasts, planting spirit herbs, and patrolling.

The most common commissions received by the outer disciples of the Sunset Sect are to go down the mountain to catch ghosts and eliminate monsters. Compared with the commissions in the wilderness, the commissions in the city are relatively safe. When big monsters and evil spirits appear in the city, the large sects closest to these places will send out elder-level monks to deal with it.

There are other benefits to doing commissions in the city, such as being able to have fun. After completing the commission, the wealthy family or the county elder will give you an extra fee or a thank you gift. It is one of the favorite commissions of the outer disciples of the Sunset Sect. While earning contribution points, you can also receive a thank you gift.

Of course, there are also some disciples who refuse to accept these gifts. They believe that maintaining the sect's image is more important than anything else.

Xu Yeyu came to the county government of Luohua County and explained his purpose to the two guards. After hearing this, one of the guards hurriedly ran into the county government and fell on the way, which was seen by him.

Xu Yeyu thought he looked kind, but why did the two guards look at him as if he were a vicious bandit?

Brother, run slower, I’m afraid you’ll fall again. I don’t know if it was because of his bad luck, but Xu Yeyu saw him fall again.

Soon, a thin middle-aged man in black clothes came out. He had an elegant temperament and a slightly tired look in his eyes. Xu Yeyu was not sure whether he was busy with county affairs or because he was too happy at night.

The county magistrate brought Xu Yeyu into the mansion and sat him down, then asked the butler to pour him a cup of tea.

"Fallen Flower Tea is the most famous tea in our county. Young man, try it and see if it suits your taste." The county magistrate said with a smile, "If you don't like it, there are other teas."

Xu Yeyu was very satisfied with this title. In the past, ordinary people would call him immortal when they saw him, but this was the first time someone called him young hero. In the future, if he met someone who called him immortal, he could ask that person to call him young hero.

Xu Yeyu picked up the teacup and smelled the steaming tea aroma. He knew the tea smelled delicious, so he took a sip.

The fragrance of tea leaves bloomed on the tip of his tongue, and the aroma of tea filled the air. This was the first time he had tasted such delicious tea, which was completely different from the free tea in the restaurant.

"This tea is delicious. Where can I buy it?"

The county magistrate saw that Xu Yeyu liked it, and his smile became even more amiable. "If you like it, I can ask the housekeeper to prepare some for you to take back."

You can buy some and take it home to drink, but of course if it is too expensive, you won’t buy it, after all, you still have to go to a restaurant.

"Any teahouse in Luohua County sells it. If you like it, I'll ask the butler to prepare some for you."

"I can just go to the teahouse and buy it myself. How can you talk about ghosts?"

The county magistrate sighed and said, "Four days ago, several people in Luohua County said they saw a woman in white at night, but she disappeared the next moment. Since that day, people have said they have seen this female ghost every night. People in Luohua County no longer dare to go out at night."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yeyu pondered for a moment.

The woman in white is not necessarily a ghost, she could be a transformed demon. Most demons can transform into humans after they have cultivated to the Foundation Establishment Stage. If there is a certain opportunity, even demons who have not cultivated can transform into humans.

"I'll observe where there's something unusual at night, and then head there."

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Xu Yeyu said goodbye to the county magistrate. When he left the house, he heard a man and a woman talking to the security guard. They were wearing coarse linen and simple clothes.

The middle-aged woman's eyes were red, obviously she had been crying for a long time. Her husband stood beside her with a worried look on his face.

"I heard that your county magistrate can submit a commission to the sect. Can you help us find our daughter? Our daughter disappeared three days ago." The woman's voice trembled, full of despair and anxiety.

After hearing their request, the guard showed an embarrassment on his face. The county magistrate could indeed ask for help from the sect and ask them to send disciples down the mountain to help them, the ordinary people.

But there are limitations. A county will only be protected by two sects, and only one commission is allowed to be submitted within a month. Originally, there was no such restriction, but after many insignificant things happened, this rule was set.

For example, a wealthy family might want to ask an immortal to come down the mountain to help name their child, a warrior might want to spar with an immortal, and so on. This kind of rule is set to prevent ordinary people from entrusting matters to immortal sects at random.

"According to the regulations, we cannot meet your request. Our county lord can only ask the sect for help again next month." The guard said regretfully.

The middle-aged man also spoke up: "Our daughter has been missing for three days. If we have to wait until next month to ask for help from the sect, I'm afraid she would have already..."

"We have no choice. This is the rule."

"I can help you, but you need to wait for me overnight." Xu Yeyu came to the couple, "I will help you after I finish the things at hand."

The couple turned to look at the young man in gray cloth, and the guard immediately added, "This is a disciple of the Sunset Sect."

"Thank you, Immortal!"

The couple leaned forward slightly and were about to kneel down. Xu Yeyu stretched out his hand and a warm force came over them. Their bodies seemed to be supported by a gentle airflow.

"You don't have to call me an immortal. Just call me Young Master Xu. In order to find your daughter, I need you to prepare some things."

"Master Xu, please tell us. We will do our best to prepare!"

Even if they had to spend all their money, they would be ready, because she was their only daughter.

"I need your daughter's birth date, a bowl of white wine, and the items she brought with her, such as clothes and accessories."

The two nodded vigorously.

They nodded quickly, "We'll be ready! Do you need anything else?"

"I have the rest, so you don't need to prepare them. Just come here to find me tomorrow morning. I will wait for you here for a day." Xu Yeyu said.
