Qin Di didn't walk far on the street when he saw a row of iron cages on the side of the street. Birds were locked in the cages. Upon closer inspection, they seemed to be swallows. They were huge, about two feet long, with blue wings. Their heads were drooping, and there was no spirit in their eyes.
He was curious, so he stopped to look.
Soon, someone came to greet him. "Martial Uncle, do you want Wei Yueyan as maids?"
Qin Di was stunned. "These swallows can become maids?"
The person who came to greet them was a young Spirit Immortal with a Black Emperor Palace odd-job disciple token on his waist. He smiled and said, "Martial Uncle, these Wei Yueyans are all Earth Immortal cultivators. After we captured them, in order to prevent them from escaping or harming themselves, we used special immortal talismans to seal their powers. Martial Uncle, if you buy two, they can become maids after removing the immortal talismans. "
Qin Di asked, "Where are the immortal talismans? Can't these swallows peck off the talismans themselves? "
The young spirit immortal answered, "These talismans are made with ice crystals. They're called Life-and-Death Talismans. They've already entered their bodies. Only a Heaven Immortal can remove them."
Life-and-Death Talismans? Qin Di immediately thought of Heaven Mountain Tonglao and Li Qiushui. Could it be that the Carefree Sect also practiced Black Emperor's water-type cultivation technique?
He thought, The first chapter of Nanhua Scripture is about Carefree Travel. It starts with a fish called Kun in the Northern Ocean … Northern Ocean is the northern ocean. Great Emperor Zhenwu's nickname is Black Tortoise. Black Tortoise is Xuan Ming, and Xuan Ming is Northern Ocean. So the Carefree Sect might be a sect left by Great Emperor Zhenwu in the secular world …
"Martial Uncle, Martial Uncle …" The young spirit immortal called, then said, "These Wei Yueyan maids are meticulous. Martial Uncle, why don't you buy two and let them clean the palace, take care of the koi, weed and flowers? They'll be good helpers. Besides, if you're willing, you can spend some immortal stones to get them odd-job disciple tokens. They'll be of more help to you! "
Hearing that, Qin Di could not help but be tempted, and asked: "How many immortal crystals?"
"Martial Uncle, it's not expensive. Just 500 Immortal Crystals will do."
"Humph, Wei Yueyan, who is at the Earth Immortal level, can't be caught easily? Look at the hundreds of cages you have here. Each bird costs 500 Immortal Crystals. Isn't it too easy to earn money? "
"Martial Uncle, you may not know this, but my master gathered a group of people to catch swallows in a dangerous place. Unfortunately, they encountered a Demon Cultivator, Zu Xian. As a result, half of the people were lost there! Capturing Wei Yueyan seemed easy, but it was actually very dangerous! Please forgive me, Martial Uncle. "
"Alright, give me two then."
The young spirit immortal beamed and introduced, "Martial Uncle, what do you think of these two? This is a pair of sisters. If they can serve one master, it will be more convenient. "
Qin Di looked at the two swallows hugging each other in an iron cage and nodded. "Alright, I'll take them!"
He took out the immortal crystals and handed them over before keeping the two swallows into his grotto-heaven.
Since he knew it was a Life-Death Note, he had a way to resolve it. Because he was a level 6 Celestial Talisman Master, the principles of talisman making were the same, so it was not difficult to resolve it.
Then, he searched the Street of the Immortal Ruins for a while and used ten level 6 Celestial Talismans to exchange for a water-type Zu Xian grotto-heaven.
There were many water cultivators in the Seven Stars of Black Tortoise. With so many people coming from different sects, killing was inevitable. Since there was killing, there would be immortals dying. However, Zu Xian was a high-level cultivator, so it was not easy to kill one of them. Therefore, the price of a Zu Xian grotto-heaven was not cheap.
After Qin Di returned to the Immortal Palace where he lived, he first put the ten koi fish into the pool, then released the two Wei Yueyans. He spent 15 minutes to remove the Life-Death Note from their bodies.
Then, in the blink of an eye, two slender and beautiful girls in blue dresses appeared in front of him. They bowed down and said in a crisp voice, "Greetings, Master!"
Qin Di asked, "What are your names?"
The two girls answered one after another, "I'm 'Chun Yan', the elder sister."
"I'm 'Qiu Yan', the younger sister."
Qin Di took a closer look and found that the two sisters looked very similar. However, when they smiled, Chun Yan had a dimple on her left cheek, and Qiu Yan had a dimple on her right cheek. It was not difficult to distinguish them.
Then, he led the two girls to the Hall of Affairs of the sect and spent 200,000 immortal stones to help them get a servant disciple token. From now on, the two girls had a status and could move around the Nine Provinces within the range of the Black Emperor Palace's immortal formation.
The two girls touched the token and seemed very excited. "Thank you, Master. You saved us from the abyss of suffering. "
Qin Di said with a smile, "Even if I didn't save you, wouldn't it be the same if you followed another master?"
Chun Yan said with tears in her eyes, "It's not the same. I heard that many masters mistreat their servants. More than half of the sisters of our Wei Yueyan Clan who were captured did not have a good ending. It's fine if they become servants, as long as they can have a good ending, it's good enough. There aren't many immortals as generous as Master. "
Qiu Yan also said, "Thank you, Master, for letting us become servant disciples. This way, we have the opportunity to continue cultivating. Being able to enter the Black Emperor Palace to cultivate is the luckiest thing for our Wei Yueyan Clan! I heard that even the swallow of the Wei Yueyan Clan's royal family started as a servant disciple after entering the Black Emperor Palace. "
Qin Di said with a smile, "I don't like to mistreat servants. I didn't arrange much work for you. It's mainly to look after the immortal palace, the flowers and plants in the courtyard, and the koi in the pond. Sometimes, I need you to run errands and go to the Ruins of Immortality to buy some things. "
"Yes, Master."
Qin Di said, "I have a jade slip here with the method to raise koi. Take a look and list out the materials you need. If you can raise the koi well, I will reward you. "
"I will do my best."
After another month, Qin Di finished his preparations and entered secluded cultivation.
His understanding of heavenly laws had surpassed Zu Xian's. If he wanted to, he could push himself to Zu Xian's peak in one go. But because his seven clones weren't synchronized, he had to wait and didn't dare advance too quickly. Now that he'd finished accumulating, he only needed to fuse with a Zu Xian grotto-heaven to double the size of his grotto-heaven and improve his immortal meridians to achieve his goal of ascension.
This secluded cultivation lasted two sixty-year cycles!
When he came out, he was already a ninth-stage celestial immortal.
The grotto-heaven in his body was half the size of Earth! The number of immortal meridians had increased, and the grotto-heaven laws had been perfected to meet the long-term needs of mortals.
In other words, he could go to the primordial world and put the entire population of Yue into the grotto-heaven!
He already had land, flowers, trees, birds, fish, and insects, everything was there.
The grotto-heaven stone floated high in the sky, like a bright sun.
But if he really did that, he'd have to bear responsibility.
