When they arrived in the forest, Feng Kaiyu hurriedly thanked Ye Ling: "Ye Yaoshi is still the most kind! Even Elder Jindan let me go out for Ye Yaoshi's sake. Haha, Ye Yaoshi will help if there is anything in the future. Just tell your little brother about the matter, and he will come when you are called!"
Yun Wan and Xiao Rong smiled sweetly at the same time: "We are the same, we will come when you are called!"
Ye Ling nodded with satisfaction, bowed his hands to them, said goodbye happily, and returned.
Ye Ling saw that his master, Sect Master Zhao, and several master uncles in the foundation-building stage were reporting to the immortal sect elder Liu Juntang about the cultivation of spiritual herbs in the Medicine Valley, as well as the situation of the five major sects around Maple Bridge Town. Ye Ling knew very well that these things were not something that he, a small middle-stage qi-training disciple, could observe, so he walked away knowingly, planning to enter the second floor of the cave to take charge of the ice cave, and select twenty disciples to practice in the ice cave.
As soon as they reached the cave hall, Meng Chang, He Jingsheng, Su Qin and Zi Shan were all gathered here, waiting for Ye Ling to come. When they saw him, they all came forward to congratulate him.
Meng Chang grinned and said: "Brother Ye! Congratulations on your advancement to the fifth level of Qi training! This little brother is beyond your reach, I admire you, I admire you!"
No matter how arrogant He Jingsheng is, he still looks at Ye Ling with admiration, especially because Ye Ling has a friendship with the Jindan elder of the Immortal Sect, which makes him have to re-examine Ye Ling. He admired Ye Ling and said: "Brother Ye is not only improving in cultivation now, but also in He holds an important position in this natural cave! From now on, Brother Ye, please take good care of our old friends in Qingzhuyuan."
"That's natural!" Ye Ling agreed with all his heart, and said with a smile: "The five of us in Qingzhuyuan are different from other brothers and sisters. We get along with each other for a long time, so we should take more care of them. Are you interested in going to the ice cave with me to practice? "
The four people were overjoyed and nodded repeatedly, especially Suqin and Zishan.
Zishan smiled and said: "I'm just telling you! Brother Ye will definitely miss us, but Sister Suqin still doesn't believe it! What else can Sister Suqin say now?"
Su Qin smiled and said: "Haha, thank you, Senior Brother Ye, for disregarding the past grudges. My little lady is very grateful."
Ye Ling led them around the winding tunnel and arrived at the first floor of the cave. The large cave with a radius of dozens of miles made them feel relaxed and happy.
At this time, all the casual cultivators from various sects on the first floor of the cave and from Maple Bridge Town were expelled. They were all disciples of the Alchemy Sect and some elders who had received a mission to enter the cave to survey the distribution of the Ice Spirit Mine.
The inner disciples who were hunting the grass ball demon on the grass saw Ye Ling leading the people. They quickly stopped fighting in front of them and stepped forward to salute Ye Ling, which shocked Ye Ling.
Ye Ling, who was usually unknown, had never received such courtesy from his fellow inner disciples even though he had become the first in the competition among outer disciples and the direct disciple of the sect master.
Nowadays, the relationship between Ye Ling and Elder Liu of the Immortal Sect has made all the inner disciples jealous. In addition, Ye Ling is in charge of the ice cave on the second floor of the cave, which makes them even more enthusiastic to approach him. There are even some female cultivators who don’t care about being ashamed, and they shout so affectionately that Senior Brother Ye is older than Senior Brother Ye.
After finally sending them away, Meng Chang said with emotion: "Brother Ye! Your status in the sect is very different from before, and you have become a very popular figure! I am afraid that my master, Sect Master Zhao, will also look at you differently. . Hey! Among these inner disciples, my younger brother has the lowest cultivation level, he is also a small medicine boy, and he doesn’t earn much from spiritual stones. Brother Ye must not forget to support my younger brother in the future!”
Ye Ling patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry! Although you are only at the second level of Qi training, you can also practice in the ice cave. With the rich aura of the ice cave, you can reach the third level of Qi training in a short time. no problem!"
Meng Chang was very happy after hearing this, and said with a rough voice: "Okay! Brother Ye is still loyal enough! I have now faintly touched the third level of Qi training. I only need to retreat for a few days and I can definitely advance!"
Ye Ling nodded and smiled, and then said thoughtfully: "What I'm thinking now is that the level of the monsters in the ice cave is not low. There are second- and third-level monsters running all over the ground. A powerful restraining formation must be set up in the ice cave. , open a cave in the spiritual vein, so that we can go in and practice! When the master is free, I will go to see him in person and explain this matter."
Suqin and Zishan's eyes lit up after hearing this, and they rushed to say: "Why bother the sect master? Just wait until we go and invite our masters!"
He Jingsheng put his palms on his hands and smiled and said: "That's right! I have long heard from my master that Elder Xuanqing's attainments in formation restraint are considered to be the best in the Yaogu Sect, so I'll help you two junior sisters."
Ye Ling nodded in agreement, and the two girls hurriedly went to invite Master Xuanqing.
Not long after, Elder Xuanqing arrived with his two daughters on a flying sword. Even the female elder Xuanqing, who was in the foundation stage of Yaogu Sect, became polite to Ye Ling.
"I heard that Nephew Ye Xian plans to set up a forbidden formation in the ice cave. If you have any difficulties, just talk to this elder."
Ye Ling had never seen the Foundation Establishment Elder in the door be so polite to him. He quickly cupped his fists and saluted, took out the jade slip of the ice cave map from his storage bag, and gave Elder Xuanqing the location and terrain, which was close to the entrance of the ice cave. Ye Ling introduced each place to Elder Xuanqing based on his impressions.
Elder Xuanqing nodded his head gently and personally drove the flying sword, carrying the five of them from Qingzhuju to the depths of the dark forest on the first floor of the cave.
When they arrived at the place, Elder Xuanqing first looked at the prohibition formation that Elder Liu of the Immortal Sect had used to seal the entrance to the ice cave with an expression of admiration and worship. He kept nodding in praise: "After all, it is Elder Jindan of the Immortal Sect! The restriction arranged by The formation is so mysterious that even if all the foundation-building elders of Yaogu Sect were tied together, it would be extremely difficult to break it!"
Ye Ling smiled calmly, took out the forbidden jade slip given to him by Elder Liu of the Immortal Sect from his storage bag, and pressed it on the formation light screen, and a doorway about one foot in size instantly appeared.
The group of people filed in, startling the second-level snow wolves and third-level ferrets near the entrance of the ice cave. They were all frightened away by the powerful aura of Elder Xuanqing in the foundation building stage.
Zishan followed closely beside her master, clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Look! What a cute ferret!"
Su Qin said with lingering fear: "The ice cave on the second floor of the cave is indeed dangerous. There are second- and third-order monsters everywhere! If Master hadn't come with us, just the five of us would definitely not be the monsters at the entrance of the cave. opponent."
Ye Ling nodded: "So, we need to set up another forbidden formation at the entrance of the ice cave to block the invasion of monsters, so that we can practice in peace in the ice cave."
Elder Xuanqing drove away the nearby monsters, and when they arrived at the small hill that was agreed upon, the mountains were filled with ice and snow, covered with ice crystal rocks, and the spiritual energy was also very strong. Elder Xuanqing smiled and said: "This is it! There is another hole away from the entrance of the ice cave. It's close, and the aura is pretty good. You guys can open up the ice cave here! This elder has set up a fifth-level high-grade formation flag here, and added some forbidden formations. As long as you hold the disciple token, you can enter and exit. Surrounded This mountain and the entrance of the ice cave are your place of retreat, to keep the monsters from breaking in."
After the discussion was agreed upon, everyone began to get busy and each opened a cave under the hill. Suqin and Zishan lived together, and the two girls worked together to dig a large cave.
Meng Chang originally wanted to live with He Jingsheng and Ye Ling, but they both wanted to be alone in a room, leaving Meng Chang helpless.
Finally, Ye Ling watched them finish digging, found a remote place under the ice rock, and opened a cave.
Elder Xuanqing also set up a formation light curtain around him. The fifth-level high-grade formation flag flashed with the formation's dim light, making the monsters in the ice cave afraid to approach.
In the end, Elder Xuanqing left a sum of spirit stones and gave them to Ye Ling. He said with a smile: "The fifth-level high-grade formation flag must rely on spirit stones to maintain its operation. Keep these for use first. If you use them later, just leave them alone." Come and get Qin or Zishan from me."
Ye Ling hurriedly said: "Why are you so embarrassed? Hehe, this junior has already thought about it. The spirit stones used to maintain the formation flag can be recorded in the sect's account. All he has to do is go back and tell the sect leader. Or, it can also be counted. Whoever comes to practice and take out a few spiritual stones on top of the disciples who go into the ice cave to practice, they must be willing to do so."
Elder Xuanqing nodded in admiration: "Nephew Ye Xian is still smart! No wonder he is highly regarded by the elders of Jindan of the Immortal Sect. Haha, this is the best! You can practice peacefully in the ice cave. I will leave first. Suqin, Zishan, you two You must practice hard and never let down your expectations as a teacher."
Suqin and Zishan hurriedly responded in unison and said goodbye to their master.
After Elder Xuanqing left, the five people in Qingzhuyuan felt much more relaxed and very happy.
Zishan suggested: "Everyone! The five of us live under the same ice and snow hill again. Let's just regard the ice and snow hill here as the new Qingzhuyuan. Senior Brother Ye, who is in charge of the ice cave, will give it a name and engrave it on it. On the ice rock!”
"Agree! I second the proposal that Senior Brother Ye should name it, and this place can be regarded as our new residence!"
Everyone thought that Ye Ling would come up with an elegant and unique nickname for his new residence, but Ye Ling smiled lightly and casually picked up a simple name: "What's so serious about this? Let's call it Bingyan Cave!"
The four of them were stunned, and Meng Chang took the lead in applauding: "What a good name! It's appropriate! It's straightforward enough!"
Just when they were living in the ice cave respectively, at the entrance of the natural cave in the Songyang dense forest, Zhao Yuanzhen, the master of the Medicine Valley Sect, and several foundation-building elders in the sect respectfully sent away Liu Juntang, the Jindan elder of the Tiandan Immortal Sect.
Sect Master Zhao let out a long breath, holding the jade slip of the cave's map with a happy face.
"Haha! Our Medicine Valley Sect is about to grow stronger! In the future, not only will it be valued by the Immortal Sect, but we will also be able to mine the Ice Spirit Mine in the cave and get 20% of the benefits for the Medicine Valley. The most exciting thing, There is nothing better than the fact that the disciples of Yaogu can practice in a natural cave with rich spiritual energy, which can greatly improve the cultivation and strength of our disciples!"
The elders laughed and said: "Isn't it! Thanks to Elder Liu of the Immortal Sect and the disciple Ye Ling! From now on, our Yaogu Sect will not be short of spiritual stones! Will the salary given to the elders in the sect be increased? Mention it?"
Sect Master Zhao twisted his beard and said with a smile: "I think you can! Hahaha, this precious disciple of mine is really good! He has made such great contributions to the sect and is highly regarded by the elders of the immortal sect. This sect wants to reward him well."
