Winter comes and summer comes, and spring comes again. In order to scare the young people, Yang Huairen and his family of three temporarily sit in the Nanxuan Swamp. However, with Yang Chengbo in charge of the overall situation, there is not much going on on weekdays.
The ice and snow melted and spring blossomed. Yang Hongyuan's family of three took their three little ones to Yuancheng Mountain again.
Although I came to Yuancheng Mountain last time, it was just to look for three. I also discovered a herd of cloud-hoofed deer and rare ganoderma, and I was busy looking around.
As for the Niushou Mountain in front of us, not to mention that the mountain is low and small, we went there with a purpose in mind.
This trip was more of an experience than a tour. The three of them set out from the southwest end of Yuancheng Mountain and headed north. What they saw along the way also solved another doubt of Yang Hongyuan.
According to Yang Hongyuan's knowledge, all cultivating sects and immortal cultivating families should be in the dense forests of the Immortal Mountains where few people are around.
But this world is very different. Sect families are often established in densely populated hinterlands.
Yang Hongyuan has also found a reason over the years, that is, the development of this world is short. Relatively speaking, spiritual power, spiritual objects and other cultivation resources are sufficient. There is not no spiritual energy in the world, and there is no need to hide in deep mountains and old forests.
What's more, in this world, immortals and mortals live together, and there is no clear separation between the world of immortality and the world of mortals. The reason for this lack of separation is that the probability of a mortal with cultivation qualifications is extremely high.
Often a person with cultivation qualifications can appear within three generations. Presumably the reason is that the world is open to a short period of time and the source of the world is sufficient.
Therefore, it is easier to be born with cultivation qualifications, which results in the indivisibility of relatives within three generations.
On the other hand, the world's largest and most basic cultivation resource, spiritual grains and spiritual rice, requires the output of spiritual farming, and these spiritual fields are located in various villages and towns.
Since then, in order to better control these resources and to facilitate resource collection, various sects and families have naturally placed their sects in densely populated hinterlands.
In the past few days, Yang Hongyuan had seen the huge Yuancheng Mountains, which really looked like barren mountains.
Spiritual herbs and elixirs containing spiritual objects are extremely rare, and the occasional ones obtained are of extremely low quality. Although spiritual places can be found occasionally, they are no more than a small amount.
According to Yang Hongyuan's estimate, it will only take three years at most to degrade into ordinary land. Naturally, no one cares about such a barren land.
On the contrary, in various villages and towns, there are occasionally spiritual veins, spiritual lands, and mineral veins appearing in the world. However, compared with these extremely barren places, there are also occasional geniuses and treasures.
But in order to obtain these rare spiritual objects, the huge cost required is not cost-effective at all.
Only ordinary spiritual farmers go to the mountains to cut firewood and hunt, and occasionally get some income. This is chance.
As for the genius treasures accidentally discovered by subordinate spiritual farmers, purchasing them at a high price will naturally save time and effort.
This cleared up Yang Hongyuan's doubts, but from Yang Hongyuan's point of view, these barren mountains and wild ridges were not barren but actually great treasures.
In later generations, when this world is about to be dissolved, a large number of world origins will be integrated into the body. These barren mountains and ridges are rare spiritual lands, and the underground contains all kinds of genius treasures.
The nearest one is Luoxialing, which is at the junction of Yujun, Yaojun, and Zhangjun. There are large mineral veins underground.
Not to mention that after the invasion from outside the territory, Ha Qing Demon King established the Twelve True Demon Peaks in Quwu Mountain, which is equivalent to the training ground for twelve real people. How many spiritual veins must appear.
Even more exaggerated, it belongs to the Liangyu Mountains at the junction of Yuzhou and Liangzhou. Although it is now a barren mountain.
There is a large jade vein, several medium-sized jade crystal veins, and a small chalcedony vein, not to mention the other small and medium-sized jade veins.
If the cultivating community knew that there were so many resources in the Liangyu Mountains, the Taoist realms in various states would have taken action long ago.
Liangzhou and Binzhou have always been regarded as barren lands by the entire cultivation world. The relatively barren areas naturally cannot produce enough high-level monks.
In the past, if Yuzhou had the Shaking Sky Sect, it could still be ranked ahead of Liangzhou and Binzhou. But now that the Shaking Sky Sect has declined, Yuzhou's strength has dropped directly to the bottom in the entire cultivation world.
Even if Yang Hongyuan activated the Jade Order of Creation many times in Yuancheng Mountain, he only got a few spiritual grasses and found a few low-grade fairy spirits.
For an ordinary poor family, this would be a huge windfall, but for Yang Hongyuan now, it was nothing. The occasional ferocious beast that appeared was only average at best.
Fortunately, Yang Hongyuan's trip was not to gain anything. He had a calm mind. After activating the Jade Order of Creation and consuming a lot of spiritual thoughts, he then silently recited the Great Sun Tathagata Sutra to recover. This was also a way to train his spiritual consciousness.
Moreover, in the inheritance of Yin Zhuoming's formation, he also obtained the secret technique of compressing spiritual consciousness, which is called spirit quenching technique.
Being able to compress spiritual consciousness to two-thirds of its original size is a good secret method for training spiritual consciousness.
Although there is no grandson who can compress half of the spirit summoning technique and the secret technique of Xuan Yan Tuo Spiritual Technique that enhances spiritual consciousness.
But now there is the Great Sun Tathagata's contemplation method and the spirit-quenching technique are not bad. When it comes to the Great Sun Tathagata's contemplation method, Yang Hongyuan's practice is considered smooth.
Although the effect of increasing spiritual awareness is not as obvious as at the beginning, Yang Hongyuan feels that as long as he persists in reciting it every day, his spiritual awareness will slowly improve.
However, the strange thing is that when Yang Hongyuan recited the past burning lamp sutra and the future Maitreya sutra of the third Buddha, and the Medicine Master Glazed Sutra and the Amitabha Sutra of the third Buddha, there was no response.
Yang Hongyuan was doubtful, but his temporary incomprehension would not have much impact on the current situation. The contemplation method of the Great Sun Tathagata was enough for him, so that was it for now.
And Yang Hongyuan also taught his parents to recite the Great Sun Tathagata Sutra, but it had no effect at all. I don't know if it was because the relics were missing or because he didn't know how to do it.
Yang Hongyuan couldn't understand it for a while, but fortunately, there was the spirit tempering technique obtained from Yin Zhuoming Cave, and now many of his parents and relatives have practiced it.
In the blink of an eye, the family had been wandering around Yuancheng Mountain for several days. They were used to following Yang Hongyuan every time he went out to pick up treasures. Suddenly, Yang Huairen and his wife were not used to traveling like this.
However, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief. Their son finally behaved like a normal person, and the family of three simply went sightseeing happily.
Unknowingly, the three of them had walked most of the way along Yuancheng Mountain. The east side of the mountain had already passed the Tanxi Sect territory and was already Binxi County.
Yujun is located in the middle of the entire Yuzhou, while Xijun is to the east of Yujun, although it is also divided into counties and towns.
However, because the four factions coexisted, the territories occupied by each faction were simply named after their respective sects, and were divided into Binxi County, Tanxi County, Yongxi County, and Qixi County.
On this day, Yang Hongyuan and the others were resting by a mountain spring. Suddenly, there was a sound in the dense forest in front of them, and a child of about ten years old in tattered clothes rushed out, with a look of panic and panic on his face.
Seeing Yang Hongyuan and the others hurriedly stepped forward, Wang Qingling, who was overflowing with maternal instinct, pulled them to him. Just as they were waiting to be questioned, they saw two more people rushing out of the dense forest.
