Chapter 143 Mu Jiling

In the sect competition, registrants must first submit the magical artifacts they have crafted.

Although Cen Zhu possessed many magical artifacts crafted in the scroll world, the materials used in the scrolls were

far too rare and precious. If she handed them over, she feared they would attract the covetous eyes of those with ulterior motives. In the cultivation world

, caution was paramount, and she, striving for a low profile, knew the principle of "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime."

Therefore, she planned to spend several days hunting demonic beasts and searching the markets near the sect for more common crafting

materials before crafting magical artifacts in the scroll world. The spring chill lingered, and a ray of dawn shone brightly on the horizon, its light spreading far and wide, as if all things were awakening

simultaneously . 　　Cen Zhu rode her sword alone through a dense, secluded forest. The area was overgrown with weeds, and the trees towered into the clouds; even in broad daylight, it remained deathly silent. 　　Cen Zhu released her divine sense, which stretched for dozens of miles, but she sensed the aura of a cultivator ten miles away. She quickly activated her "Hundred Refined Silk," enlarging it to protect her body, and cautiously moved forward. 　　When she detected the person approaching, she was slightly taken aback, and the other person seemed equally surprised. 　　The newcomer wore the bright yellow Daoist robe of an elite disciple of the Lingyin Sect, with a delicate nose and tender red lips; it was none other than Mu Jiling, a Golden Core cultivator. 　　"Oh, aren't you Junior Sister Lin Xue, who just joined this year?" Mu Jiling greeted her first, clearly taking a liking to this quiet and gentle female cultivator. 　　Seeing the female cultivator's enthusiastic manner, Cen Zhu quickly bowed and said, "Senior Sister Mu." 　　The Lingyin Sect was one of the ten major sects of the Lingzhou Continent, and most of the elite disciples were arrogant and self-important, but Senior Sister Mu was clearly an exception. Three months ago, when Cen Zhu was handling some initiation matters in the main hall, she happened to meet Mu Jiling on duty, and her kindness and enthusiasm left a very good impression on Cen Zhu. 　　"Junior Sister Lin, are you here to hunt demonic beasts too?" 　　"Yes, is Senior Sister Mu the same?" 　　Mu Jiling nodded, then sighed, "Unfortunately, I'm unlucky today; I haven't caught a single demonic beast." 　　Cen Zhu frowned slightly. If she didn't have demonic beast bones or hides, she'd probably have to buy refining materials at the market. Oh well , she still had some talismans on hand. She could use her Disguise Technique to change her appearance and then go to the market to trade. 　　"In that case, Lin Xue will have to give up hunting and return to the sect to cultivate." Cen Zhu bowed again, and just as she was about to take her leave, Mu Jiling suddenly pulled her hand and said softly, "Junior Sister Lin, it's rare to meet here . Why don't we go to the market together?" 　　Such a charming and lovely female cultivator smiled sweetly, and Cen Zhu naturally couldn't refuse. Since she came to the Lingyin Sect to cultivate, she had never encountered a female cultivator who was so familiar with her, let alone an elite disciple like this. 　　She secretly longed for female friends, but the gender ratio among high-level cultivators was increasingly unbalanced. Almost one in ten Golden Core cultivators was female. 　　Therefore, Cen Zhu was delighted by Mu Jiling's enthusiasm. The two traveled together on their swords towards the market, growing closer in the short journey. Cen Zhu secretly praised Mu Jiling, acknowledging her status as an elite disciple of a major sect. Her extensive knowledge was undeniable, but most importantly, her kind and warm attitude made Cen Zhu feel favorably towards her. 　　"Junior Sister, are you in such a hurry to hunt demonic beasts? Perhaps you intend to participate in the sect's weapon-refining competition?" This deduction was rather unfounded, as the day of the competition was approaching, and most of the spiritual herbs in the market had been sold out. As for weapon-refining materials and talisman-making materials, they almost always needed to be restocked repeatedly. 　　"Lin Xue does indeed want to participate. Could it be that Senior Sister also wants to participate?" Cen Zhu readily admitted. Although she had only known Mu Jiling for a short time , she had a vague feeling that this person was trustworthy. 　　Mu Jiling blushed and said softly, "No, it wasn't me. I don't have that ability. It's my future cultivation partner, Li Shuyi." 　　"Li Shuyi's name is quite renowned; he's known as the number one Golden Core cultivator in the Lingyin Sect. I heard he's not even a hundred years old, yet he's already at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage." Although Cen Zhu herself wasn't gossipy, Li Shuyi was indeed too prominent in the Lingyin Sect , and she often heard female cultivators discussing him with infatuated expressions. 　　"He's just an ordinary person. How dare he claim to be the number one Golden Core cultivator in the Lingyin Sect? It's just some fellow cultivators exaggerating his abilities!" Besides, she didn't like him because of such empty fame. Mu Jiling silently added in her heart. 　　Cen Zhu truly admired Mu Jiling's humility. If it were an ordinary woman, her future partner with such a reputation would likely show arrogance, but clearly Mu Jiling was not only beautiful but also of exceptional character. 　　Cen Zhu smiled and didn't continue the topic. The two arrived at the market. The two female cultivators, both with graceful figures, were quite eye-catching, especially the woman in the bright yellow Daoist robe, who was dressed as an elite disciple of the Lingyin Sect. Cen Zhu even noticed many men staring at Mu Jiling with adoring expressions. 　　Since most female cultivators' techniques had beauty-enhancing effects, the delicate features of cultivators like Cen Zhu made them the least noticeable among them . Cen Zhu, however, showed no inferiority and continued to stroll with Mu Jiling, completely unconcerned about the comparisons made to them by others. 　　Mu Jiling led Cen Zhu to a seemingly unremarkable shop. Just as Cen Zhu was wondering how such a simple place could possibly have enough materials for refining weapons, the shopkeeper gave her a pleasant surprise. 　　Upon entering the shop, the previously unremarkable building suddenly seemed ten times more spacious. Not only were the materials and herbs inside complete, but almost every grade was available. 　　Cen Zhu sighed inwardly, realizing that nothing can be judged by appearances alone. The more ordinary something seems, the more profound its hidden meaning. 　　Seeing her stunned expression, Mu Jiling teased, "Were you startled? I was just as surprised when I first entered this place ." 　　Cen Zhu replied sincerely, "I must thank you, Senior Sister, for bringing me here." Even knowing that Cen Zhu was also participating in the sect competition, Mu Jiling hadn't held back, generously bringing her here to select refining materials. They had only met twice, yet Mu Jiling treated her with such sincerity; Cen Zhu was deeply grateful. 　　Mu Jiling waved her hand, saying, "We're fellow disciples, there's no need for thanks." 　　Cen Zhu smiled, deciding to keep her gratitude in her heart and repay the favor in the future. 　　The two continued selecting refining materials, finally finishing their selections after half an hour. Stepping out of the shop, Cen Zhu touched her nearly empty spirit stone pouch, sighing inwardly: saving money is difficult, but spending it is so easy!

Seeing that both of them had made a good haul, Mu Jiling wanted to take the refining materials to Li Shuyi first, so she chatted and laughed

for a while before leaving.

Cen Zhu wandered around the market for a while longer, hoping to find a special shop like the one she had found today, but unfortunately

, she came up empty-handed after half a day. Cen Zhu shook her head and sighed inwardly at her own greed. She had already bought all

the materials , and even if she found a new shop, she would be too broke to buy any more.
