chapter 227: tangling silk soft sword of course, at present, meng zhang wasn't busy studying "grand evolving fortune." to study the tianji art, adequate preparation was necessary. apart from abstaining from certain activities and performing rituals, at the very least, he needed to meditate and focus his mind and energy. meng zhang carefully put away the "grand evolving fortune" and three bottles of supple element pills. he wore the storage ring on his finger. as for the pile of spiritual stones and other items, he put some into the storage ring and the rest into the sect's treasury, converting them into contribution points for himself. meng zhang had a considerable amount of contribution points, but he rarely exchanged items from the sect's treasury. the primary reason was that the accumulation in the treasury was not abundant, and he didn't want to deplete it, which could affect the sect's functioning. even the one hundred wooden kites were placed in the treasury for the disciples to exchange using their contribution points. the more abundant the items in the treasury, the stronger the disciples' desire to exchange, encouraging them to take on more tasks and contribute to the sect. after dealing with the spoils of war, meng zhang finally had time to handle the internal affairs of the sect. he called upon the external affairs hall master li xuan and instructed him to visit firewell market more often, gradually making contact with some merchants and seeking new buyers for the sect's minerals. at the same time, meng zhang also asked him to mobilize the sect's forces to investigate the situation of zhao jiudou, that guy from twin success valley. information related to flying swan sect disciples wouldn't be easily revealed in the black market, but fortunately, taiyi sect had made significant progress in various aspects over the years and established its own channels for intelligence. next, meng zhang focused on his cultivation. since he hadn't obtained the new flying sword, and the crimson flame sword had already been destroyed, he needed to master some new techniques to counter his deficiencies in swordsmanship. on one hand, he intensified his efforts to refine the golden crow lantern, and on the other, he practiced some secret techniques that only foundation building cultivators could master. after the senior passed away during meditation, no other foundation building cultivator in qiaoshou sect was proficient in flying swords. thus, the sword had been kept idle in their sect's treasure trove. jin qigu presented this exquisite flying sword to meng zhang as a gesture of gratitude. surprisingly, qiaoshou sect was well-informed and knew that the flying sword meng zhang had previously ordered had been sold to someone else by earthfire sect, leaving him without a suitable flying sword. this showed the sincerity of qiaoshou sect's gratitude. of course, meng zhang was unaware of the significance jin qiao'er held in qiaoshou sect. though he had saved jin qigu, saving jin qiao'er had earned him immense gratitude from the high-ranking members of qiaoshou sect. this led them to prepare a nearly tailor-made gift for him. meng zhang initially felt unworthy and tried to refuse the gift multiple times, but jin qigu was insistent on him accepting it. eventually, he reluctantly accepted the tangling silk soft sword. the tangling silk soft sword was both flexible and sturdy, possessing a harmonious blend of softness and strength, making it perfect for performing the "willow dance in the wind" sword technique. however, being a sword usually used by female cultivators, its exquisite and delicate appearance made it seem a bit effeminate for a male cultivator to wield. nevertheless, considering its perfect compatibility with his sword technique and the absence of any other suitable flying swords, meng zhang had no choice but to use it for the time being. after receiving the gift, jin qigu and meng zhang discussed various matters between their sects and reached a verbal agreement on certain aspects. this incident brought taiyi sect and qiaoshou sect closer together, though they were not yet allies, they were no longer enemies. at least for a long time to come, they would not be hostile towards each other. jin qigu also promised that qiaoshou sect would notify taiyi sect of any events they were involved in to prevent taiyi sect from being isolated. after seeing off jin qigu, another piece of news brought anger to meng zhang. zhao jiudou had somehow obtained information that the current pill hall hall master of taiyi sect, zhang yingying, was once an alchemist disciple of twin success valley and had served the sect for many years.
