"It's going well. Everyone's attention is on your apprentice - this trick is quite effective." Qingrou also said.
"It's just a trick, the next step is the tough battle." Gu Qingshan said.
He looked around, taking in the layout of the room.
Qi Yan is a monk in the Taixu Realm and the son of the leader, but the layout of his room is very ordinary.
Gu Qingshan did not see anything wonderful beyond imagination.
The only thing that attracts people is a piece of spiritual jade carving.
Gu Qingshan walked to the table and picked up the jade toad.
This jade toad is carved from the finest spiritual jade, with a miniature spiritual power array engraved inside, accumulating spiritual power at any time, waiting for the monks to absorb it.
Gu Qingshan held it in his hand and suddenly felt countless spiritual energy drilling into his pores.
"Good stuff." He praised.
This was the only thing in the whole room that caught his eye.
"Isn't it true that spiritual stones can no longer be obtained in this world?" He asked doubtfully.
"There are always some good things that Qi Yan is reluctant to use. For example, this jade toad is his most beloved collection." Qingrou replied.
Gu Qingshan put down the jade toad and picked up a fan.
Unfolding the fan, it is painted with clouds on the temples, snowy arms, and beautiful jade.
Qingrou and Wan'er looked at him, wanting to see his expression.
Gu Qingshan held the fan with a calm expression and started fanning gently.
"Yes, this is him." Qingrou praised.
"This is not me." Gu Qingshan sighed depressedly.
At this time there was a noise outside the door.
The noise was very slight, as if he was afraid of disturbing Qi Yan.
Gu Qingshan released his spiritual thoughts through the window and saw several monks placing a box at the door of the courtyard.
They bowed and bowed, then withdrew.
Gu Qingshan thought about the records in the documents and asked: "The day for the sect to distribute salary has come?"
"It's just these two days. It's great. This time there are pills available." Wan'er looked at Qingrou with a look of expectation on her face.
"I didn't expect that there would be benefits when I first came here." Gu Qingshan said with a smile.
Wan'er said: "I'll get it back."
She opened the door, walked slowly across the yard, and put the box away in front of the gate.
Soon, the box was opened in front of the four people.
Several bottles of elixirs.
A small bag of spiritual stones.
A jade slip.
That's all there is to it.
Wan'er picked up the spirit stone bag and weighed it in her hands.
"This time it's good. There seem to be sixty low-grade spiritual stones." She said in surprise.
Sixty spiritual stones...
Gu Qingshan looked at these things and was stunned for a long time.
Qi Yan is a monk in the Taixu Realm and one of the three hall masters of Guangyang Sect. The amount of spiritual stones distributed every month is actually so little?
When she was in the world of cultivation, Baihua Fairy would never give up until the entire storage bag was filled with spirit stones every time she distributed them to her apprentices.
That's an amount of one hundred thousand spiritual stones.
As for elixirs, universal formation plates, talismans, spiritual food, and even clothing and weapons, Baihua Fairy will also prepare them for her disciples.
Qin Xiaolou complained every time, saying that Master allowed him to show off.
Naturally, such complaints cannot escape a severe beating from Baihua Fairy or White Goose.
But this also explains from one aspect the treatment of Baihua Sect and the abundance of resources in the entire practice world.
In comparison, Qi Yan was too shabby.
Gu Qingshan sighed and said: "Have the resources of this world been exhausted to this extent?"
"Yes, the earth no longer exists, let alone training resources." Qingju said.
"All the sects are now relying on their previous plunder and reserves to survive." Wan'er also said.
Gu Qingshan was speechless for a moment.
I originally thought that with the high level of cultivation in this world, I would see a very splendid and dazzling civilization, but this is not the case.
This is a barren and ending world.
The reason is that it is just a real-life demon.
Before the World Demon came to this world, this world must have been strong and prosperous, otherwise it would not have conquered so many worlds and given birth to so many powerful monks.
But a world demon came to this world and immediately destroyed everything.
If the world demon appeared in my own world, would the ending be different?
Gu Qingshan sighed and shook his head.
He suddenly noticed that Qingrou was staring at a bottle of elixir, with a look that was hesitant to speak.
Gu Qingshan took the bottle of elixir over.
Open the cork of the bottle, pour a few pills in front of your nose and smell it. It is an ordinary healing pill.
"Do you need this?" Gu Qingshan asked.
Wan'er took the lead and said for Qingju: "Sister is soft-hearted. She once tried to save a few slaves, but Qi Yan found out and made her kneel on the cold flames for a long time."
"Spiritual power is imprisoned and there is no healing medicine, so my sister's injury has not healed yet."
Gu Qingshan nodded and understood.
"Cold Flame? The injuries caused by this thing are very painful, so this bottle of healing elixir... is not suitable for you." Gu Qingshan said in a deep voice.
Wan'er paused.
The hope in Qingrou's eyes gradually dimmed, but she nodded and said, "Yes, now is the most critical time, you should keep these pills as backup."
"That's not what I meant." Gu Qingshan said.
He threw the bottle of healing pill back into the box, but patted his storage bag.
A small cyan bottle was handed to Qingrou's hand.
"Use this." Gu Qingshan said.
Qingrou was startled.
Wan'er rushed to remove the cork.
The strong medicinal power emitted from the bottle.
For a moment, the whole room was filled with medicinal fragrance.
"I haven't touched such a high-level elixir for a long time - what kind of elixir is this?"
Wan'er said, her nose twitching as she tried her best to absorb the dissipated medicinal power.
Her behavior didn't look like that of a Thousand Tribulation Realm monk, but she actually looked a bit cute.
As maids, the cultivation resources they can get are close to none.
Gu Qingshan replied: "Seven Transformations Shengdan can cure all fire poisons, repair all injuries of the five elements, and replenish vitality."
Qingrou's face was calm, but she pushed the cyan vial back into Qingshan's hand.
"This elixir must be extremely precious. You should keep it for yourself. I can resist it," she said.
"Take it and use it. I can have as much of this elixir as I want." Gu Qingshan was a bit dumbfounded.
When Gu Qingshan faced the Pope for the first time and reluctantly used the Seven-Star Wandering Dragon, he was seriously injured.
Entering the world of Shenwu, his injuries have not healed and he has been healing in a medicine bucket.
It was also at that time that Baihua Fairy filled his storage bag with an application.
Later, Baihua Fairy had a premonition that she was about to die, so she simply put everything in the Baihua Sect into a sachet and entrusted it to him.
Baihua Fairy is the top figure in the entire world of cultivation, and the resources and wealth she possesses are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Therefore, this bottle of Seven-Transformation Pill is nothing to Gu Qingshan.
Qingrou looked at him uncertainly, trying to discern his true thoughts.
Gu Qingshan handed her the small cyan bottle without any doubt: "I hope we can cooperate sincerely and get through this difficulty together."
"Okay, if you are serious, I will keep this pill." Qingju said.
Wan'er said happily: "Sister, if you see that he risked his life to save his master, you should know that he is a good person."
Qingrou nodded.
Gu Qingshan took out the jade slip from the box.
His spiritual thoughts penetrated the jade slips, and he immediately learned about some of the recent events in the sect.
Rakshasa Peak, the only major sect left in the world, is coming to visit.
The Supreme Elder is still in seclusion to heal his wounds, and will not appear until Rakshasa Peak arrives at the sect.
The leader is surviving the tribulation in the turbulent flow of the void.
——No one dares to survive the tribulation in this world, otherwise they will be immediately noticed by the world demon.
These major things remain the same and nothing has changed.
What caught Gu Qingshan's attention was a trivial matter.
Xiangjitang, who is in charge of the sect's resource reserves, and Ningyuetang, who is in charge of the sect's disciples' cultivation affairs, jointly announced something.
The spiritual stone expenses of the sect disciples this month will be distributed later.
This is because Rakshasa Peak is coming to visit, and the sect decided to hold a welcome party.
When the grand event is approaching, Xiangjitang has to make all-out preparations and has no time to arrange the distribution of spiritual stones.
When the distinguished guests arrived, Ning Yuetang also organized a sect competition.
There are many good rewards prepared for this competition, which are enough to attract all the disciples to come and compete for ranking.
After all this, the sect resumes normal operations, and Xiangji Hall will arrange the distribution of spiritual stones this month.
Gu Qingshan carefully looked at the content of the sect competition, but found that it was different from what he thought.
Most of the competitions here are for monks to take exams in the six arts.
Hexagrams, formations, talismans, utensils, elixirs, and food are the six arts.
Among the six arts, the one most favored by the sect is the formation examination.
As for the realm of cultivation and victory in battle, they are not included in the competition at all.
Gu Qingshan thought for a moment and quickly came to his senses.
The sects in this world no longer care about the cultivation of their disciples.
What’s the benefit of having a high level of cultivation?
As far as the sect is concerned, they have to dig out more spiritual stones to support you and prevent you from competing for power.
On the contrary, only those who are excellent in the six arts can better contribute to the sect.
The most important of them is the magic circle.
If there were no magic circles in this world, civilization would have died long ago.
