After refining the dragon energy, the seclusion came to an end, and Xu Wen broke through the seclusion and came out.
After spending a few days with Hai Zhenzhu, he began to take over from Cui Changxing to handle various things in Fangshi.
In fact, by this time, the twenty-year agreement between him and Qin Sanjian had long passed, and he was completely able to leave Jietian City.
But over the years, whether it is friends, forces or various resources, they have all been developed with Jietian City as the center.
Leaving here is like transplanting a towering tree to another place. Although you may not die, it will definitely hurt your muscles and bones.
Moreover, he is living very well here. Both Bazhou Mountain and Jie Tian City are very friendly and respectful to him. He has no reason to leave at all!
This is the brilliance of Qin Sanjian. When he took this job, Xu Wen knew his plan, but he couldn't refuse.
Today, he could obviously throw away his hands and leave, but he couldn't bear to leave.
The most difficult thing to fight against in the world is not the machinations in dark corners, but this kind of outright conspiracy.
Even though you know the other party's plan, you have to jump in.
After two years of seclusion, Jie Tian City became more and more prosperous.
The mining of the Simianshan Lingshi Mine and the ten-year auction have injected great vitality into Jietian City.
After I handed over to Cui Changxing, I learned that all three Jindan masters had left and went to the Simianshan Lingshi Mine.
Even Chu Yin came out of seclusion not long ago and followed Qin Sanjian wherever he went.
Hearing the news, Xu Wen felt relieved.
Qin Sanjian took Chu Yin out with Bao Jingxing and Yu Feiyuan, which shows that Bao and Yu have basically put aside their suspicions about Chu Yin and Xu Wenyou.
Of course, we still need to be cautious in the future, but there is no need to be too nervous.
The next three years went smoothly, and my magic power cultivation progressed steadily.
What surprised Xu Wen the most was that his position of formation mage had reached the second level silently.
His time to learn formations was very short, and he was the last among several professions. The difficulty of promotion for formation masters was far higher than that of making talismans and spiritual plants, and was much more difficult than refining weapons.
But it was precisely this cultivation skill that he made a breakthrough, which may have a lot to do with me coming to the Palace Sword Formation to hone his skills.
However, except for Hai Zhenzhu, he did not tell anyone about this.
Even the formations refined through occasional practice were not sold in Jietian City. Instead, they were given to caravans and transferred to the three sects of Zhiyuanmen for sale.
Among the various arts of cultivation, formation masters and alchemists have the most special status. Generally speaking, when sects encounter these talents among casual cultivators, they will vigorously recruit them into their sects.
When encountering someone who is disobedient, some sects with darker hearts may even do evil things secretly.
Although he had a good impression of Bazhou Mountain, Xu Wen had no intention of being completely bound to them, and naturally he was unwilling to cause unnecessary disputes over the formation master.
On this day, Xu Wen was dealing with sundries in Fangshi when he suddenly received a message from Hai Zhenzhu, saying that Hai Zhenzhu, who was supposed to leave from Zhiyuanmen, and came here to hand over the goods, did not arrive as scheduled.
As a small trading company, within three years, they would exchange goods with each other and earn some spiritual stones by taking advantage of the price difference of spiritual items from various places.
For example, Xu Wen himself said that if he could not sell the spiritual peaches, spiritual rice, and formation plates in Jietian City, he would use caravans to circulate them to other places.
Moreover, reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles is also a good opportunity to experience your state of mind and find opportunities.
This time, Sea Pearl was supposed to come with the flying beasts from Feilong Trading Company to pick up Tiancheng. Unexpectedly, when Feilong Trading Company arrived, Sea Pearl was nowhere to be seen.
Hai Zhenzhu went to Feilong Trading Company to inquire, but the other party was extremely arrogant and ignored Hai Zhenzhu at all.
Confused, Xu Wen immediately rushed to Xiuningji, where Hai Zhenzhu was waiting with a sad look on his face.
The world of cultivation is extremely dangerous, and disappearance often means that something extremely bad has happened.
After chatting with Hai Zhenzhu for a while, Xu Wen left Xiuningji and went straight to Feilong Trading Company.
Since the direct trade route with Zhiyuan Gate was opened, Feilong Trading Company has become more and more prosperous, and even the few receptionists at the door are late-stage Qi Refining monks.
Seeing Xu Wen and feeling the unfathomable aura on his body, the two of them were neither humble nor arrogant, and they didn't have much fear.
The strength of Feilong Trading Company is only slightly worse than that of the big sects such as Zhiyuan Sect, and is still above ordinary cultivating families. Their people naturally have the confidence to look down on ordinary cultivators.
After hearing Xu Wen's request and knowing that Xu Wen was a worshiper of Jietian City, they finally became a little more polite and led Xu Wen to a reception room. Not long after, a shrewd-looking Foundation Establishment monk walked in.
"Fellow Daoist Xu invites you!"
Having already known Xu Wen's purpose in advance, the visitor bowed his hand without saying anything. With a wave of his hand, several people filed in, each holding a large wooden box, nine in total.
These boxes are full of storage bags, containing materials sold in two places. Because of the storage bags, they cannot be received into other storage instruments.
Although it looks like an ordinary box, it is actually a magic weapon with very powerful restrictions. If it is opened forcibly, it will explode and destroy all the storage bags inside.
The man seemed to cherish his words as much as gold. He took out a special piece of Dharma paper, handed it to Xu and asked:
"Please also ask fellow Taoist to leave a trace of mana as proof!"
When I took it and looked at it, it was written clearly on it, "All the luggage of fellow Taoist Lanye has been retrieved"!
At this moment, Xu Wen understood why the other party had a bad attitude towards Hai Zhenzhu.
They want to eat the things that the sea corals carry with them, and naturally they don't want friends or relatives who have the sea corals to come looking for the sea corals.
Now Xu Wen came to the door in person, but he was not someone like Hai Zhenzhu who would be clueless at first glance. These people had no choice but to take out Hai Zhen's things.
No wonder an old friend once said, "Cars and boats, shops with teeth and teeth, even those who are not guilty should be killed." He was obviously referring to this group of people.
It's not that they dare to attack Sea Coral directly, but they definitely stand by and watch when Sea Coral is in danger, and even enjoy it.
Moreover, judging from their behavior, sea corals are likely to be in bad luck.
Xu Wen was anxious and angry in his heart, but it didn't show on his face at all. He glanced at the eight boxes and said calmly:
"It's not just that. My friend told me before departure that there are fifteen boxes of stuff in total!"
The distance between the two places is long and communication is inconvenient, but this does not mean that both parties are completely blind and do not know the other party's information.
Borrowing the password experience from the previous life, just in case, their firm has agreed on a special number of boxes in each location.
For example, Jie Tian City uses "seven" as the base number, rotating eight boxes, fifteen boxes, and twenty-two boxes. It is impossible to have the number nine boxes.
Needless to say, these people must have concealed the missing six boxes.
Although these boxes have self-destruction formations, there is no formation in this world that cannot be solved. As long as you are willing to spend effort and use your brain, the self-destruction formation can be avoided.
Hearing what Xu Wen said, the face of the monk who didn't even want to tell his name suddenly changed. He stood up suddenly and said coldly:
"What do you mean by this, fellow Taoist? Is it possible that Feilong Trading Company will swallow up this little thing of yours?"
Then, he waved his sleeves and turned around to leave without wanting to say anything more.
Xu Wen was completely offended. There are always people like this in this world. You tried to reason with him, but he thought you were cowardly and thought he could act like a hooligan with you. He immediately shouted coldly:
"Stop, I said you can leave?"
Xu Wen stood up slowly, his eyes like lightning, staring at the other person.
Although they were strangers to each other, the monks had a basic understanding of each other. This man was only in the early stage of foundation building. You could tell with your butt that he was definitely no match for Xu Wen in the later stage of foundation building.
However, this was the territory of his Feilong Trading Company. Facing Xu Wen's fierce momentum, he did not show any fear at all. Instead, he mocked:
"Hey, look at your attitude, you actually want to take action here? You don't even look at what kind of place this is, how can you allow you to..."
Exhausting his last trace of patience, Xu Wen suddenly raised his hand and grabbed his neck hard.
"Come here, someone dares to act violently in Feilong Commercial..."
The man yelled and tried his best to resist, but he felt a mountain-like aura suddenly burst out from Xu Wen's body, and his body, which was already a head taller than him, suddenly grew infinitely taller.
His vision went dark, and a wrist like a steel claw had tightly clasped his neck. With just a little force, his head could be pulled out of his neck.
There was a loud sword cry, and the blue-scaled sword shot out, stabbing backwards.
A monk in the middle stage of foundation building had just emerged from the wall behind Xu Wen and was about to attack him. The Green Scale Sword opened a hole in his chest and pinned him to the wall.
At the same time, the thunder and lightning copper thallium flew up quietly, sweeping away its tyrannical momentum, and several houses were instantly reduced to pieces.
Countless thunderbolts flew out and formed three electric snakes in the air, trapping the three foundation-building monks who were preparing to lead them away.
After doing something like this, they were naturally afraid that others would fall out, so they had already deployed heavy troops nearby just in case.
Unfortunately, in front of Xu Wen's powerful spiritual consciousness, their small actions were as clear as watching fire from afar.
With a wave of his hand, the six subdued Foundation Establishment monks turned into a whirlwind of human flesh, sweeping across all directions.
Several members of the trading company who rushed to save people were beaten to the point of being knocked down, and a large number of houses were swept down.
Surrounded by human shields, Xu Wen strode straight to the back room of Feilong Trading Company and shouted coldly:
"Master Hao Zelong, please come out and see me!"
The next moment, a dim shadow appeared silently from under a collapsed wall.
In a flash, he reached Xu Wen's side, and a dagger without any luster was stabbed towards his neck.
There was no sound of wind during the whole process. It was as if he had no body and could completely blend into the wind.
For cultivators, magical weapons, spells, and spiritual consciousness can be used to attack from a distance. Few people are willing to learn this kind of assassination method similar to that of mortals.
But this does not mean that this method is useless. In fact, if someone who is not familiar with this method encounters it at first glance, it is very likely that the boat will capsize in the gutter.
The dim dagger restrainedly cut off Xu Wen's neck, and a hint of enthusiasm suddenly flashed in the visitor's originally cold and dim eyes.
These guys, who don't know how high the sky is, dare to run wild at Tianlong Trading Company just because they think they have a few tricks.
But I don't want to think about how Tianlong Trading Company got its huge wealth. It can't be a good old man who received charity from others, right?
The dagger stabbed Xu Wen hard, but Shadow's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of fear, and there was no warmth that penetrated the flesh. It was the transformation spell.
"ah!"
He shouted angrily, his body like a rapidly vibrating string, trying desperately to dodge the unknown attack.
Golden light suddenly appeared, and the immortal rope came out of thin air, wrapping him tightly.
Without any politeness, he exerted great force, and a series of crackling sounds came from his limbs, chest, abdomen, and head.
