After Changsheng returned to Bingling Palace, he fell on his bed and fell asleep.
Refining elixirs for three or four consecutive hours is of great benefit to the improvement of the soul and soul power, but it is so tiring! I slept until dusk when I was woken up by Xie Hanzi.
"Little sir, get up soon. Are we waiting for you?"
"Wait, why are you waiting for me?" Changsheng opened his eyes in a daze.
"As I told you yesterday, my godmother is going to treat me to dinner and prepare a big table of delicious food."
Before the two of them arrived at Granny Yu's pavilion, they heard a burst of chattering noises coming from inside. It was obviously a dozen little girls playing around.
As soon as he entered the pavilion, Changsheng was surrounded.
What surprised him was that a dozen little girls in their twelfth or thirteen years old had not only reached the foundation building level, but their soul power had almost reached the second level.
"Ah! Mr. Changsheng. You really cured Granny Yu." Naturally, Yuan'er was the first to speak.
"Thank you, Mr. Changsheng. Granny Yu has been very kind to us."
"Master Changsheng, Master Changsheng. They all say that you are very good at making alchemy."
"Master Changsheng, our soul power is almost close to the second level. Can we also make elixirs?"
…
"Okay, stop crowding around to give birth to a son. Granny Yu has packed all the cakes for you. Go back quickly. Master Fang will be here soon." Su Wanyu pretended to be angry.
As soon as they heard Master Fang, all the girls became quiet.
"Yeah! There is a lotus root cake. My mother-in-law is the best."
"The lotus root cake is the best. Please give me another one, please!"
"It's my mother-in-law, the only one who can't satisfy her cravings."
"Please, mother-in-law, give me another one? Just one."
…
As soon as the little girls saw the lotus root cake, they all started chirping again.
"A bunch of greedy little cats, the lotus root cake is too hot, so we can't eat more." Grandma Yu looked at the little girls dotingly and said.
"Just one, just one."
"Please, mother-in-law, just pretend again."
"My mother-in-law is the most beautiful mother-in-law in the entire Bingling Palace, so why don't I give her another one?"
…
"Okay, okay, let's each pretend one more." Grandma Yu couldn't laugh or cry.
"Thank you, mother-in-law."
"Mother-in-law is the best."
"Goodbye Elder Su, farewell Mr. Changsheng, farewell Senior Brother Han."
The little girls each took another lotus root cake and left happily. The pavilion instantly became quiet.
"Brother Han? It's only been a few days and you've become so familiar with those little girls?" Chang Sheng looked at Han Zi and smiled.
"These little junior sisters are quite cute." Hanzi scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Master Changsheng, please sit down quickly. Let's eat some snacks first. The meal will be ready soon. I didn't call anyone else, just Elder Su and you guys." Granny Yu said with a smile.
Hun Li and Liu Xunfeng were already at the dinner table, enjoying the pastries. And the idiot ran to the kitchen to help Granny Fish.
After a while, the fool brought out a table full of dishes in large and small plates. Several people looked at it with envy.
Before Mo Shu left, Hanzi and Liu Xunfeng could still eat home-cooked meals made by Mo Shu. But in the more than a year since Mo Shu went to the Beimo Town Jie Division, the two of them had either been eating in the Underworld Division's big pot or working in restaurants.
If Changsheng were in Mingque City, he would cook every day, but in the slaughterhouse. The two of them just went to have a few meals.
"Move your chopsticks, don't just watch." After Mrs. Yu took her seat, she began to persuade her to eat.
"There are too many dishes, Granny Yu. How can we finish them all?"
"Although Binling Palace belongs to the Nanjiang Continent, the climate and other aspects are the same as those of the Xiling Continent. These dishes are unique to the Xiling Continent, and you won't be able to eat them after you go back. And Jingshu's cooking skills can be called Bingling A must."
As Elder Su said, he picked up a chopstick dish for Chang Sheng.
"That's right, my godmother's food is better than that of Zilu Restaurant."
As Xie Hanzi said this, he and Liu Xunfeng started to feast, while Elder Su and Hun Li ate slowly.
"Elder Su, are all the children in Bingling Palace so highly cultivated?"
"Children? Oh, what about those girls just now? Seventeen of them are all saints from our Holy Lady's Palace, and their cultivation is naturally much better than other people of the same age."
"Saint? Seventeen?" Changsheng was a little surprised. Since ancient times, many sects have had saints, saints, etc. But only one, two or three at most.
"The saints of the Binling Palace are all selected from the students of Shangxuetang. However, it is not based on any cultivation competition. Instead, they use the sacred object of our Binling Palace, Lingyuan."
"Ling Yuan?"
"Yes, this is not a secret. There are various rumors. Three million years ago, the Xiling Continent was still an ocean called Linghai."
"During the Soul-Destroying War, someone wanted to use the water of Linghai to flood the entire Wuji Domain. At this time, a powerful person appeared and used Ling Yuan to freeze the entire Linghai into an ice sheet within four hours. The Wuji Domain was also protected from An unforeseen disaster."
Elder Su paused: "As long as the soul power of all Shangxuetang students reaches the first level, they will be brought to Lingyuan. If Lingyuan flashes with blue light, it means they have been selected."
"Will you focus on training after being selected?" Liu Xunfeng asked.
"No, the saint's cultivation and study are no different from those of the disciples in Shang Xuetang, but as long as the child is selected, her cultivation will advance much faster than other children."
"It's a pity that in the nearly 2 million years since the Ice Ling Palace was founded, all the saints who have reached the highest level of cultivation will be eliminated by Lingyuan. I was also eliminated more than a thousand years ago." Elder Su joked to himself.
"Elimination? Use a cultivation competition?"
"No, the saint will go to Lingyuan Valley every time she breaks through or advances in cultivation. If Lingyuan no longer shines, it means you have been eliminated. It is strange that as long as the saint is eliminated, the cultivation level Progress will return to normal.”
"What happens after being eliminated?"
"Like all the people in the Binling Palace, as long as you reach the level of Condensation, you can choose to go home or stay in the Binling Palace after passing the loyalty test."
"But the Saint can only do so after she is eliminated. She must remain in the Saint's Palace before being eliminated."
"Can you still choose to go home? What if she defected to another sect or dynasty?"
"This is the freedom given to the sisters by the palace. We made it clear when recruiting. Most of the disciples of Bingling Palace are sent here by their families since they were young. The elders of Shang Xuetang will occasionally go to the four continents to recruit." The mother-in-law explained.
"Elder Yisu said that all saints will be eliminated in the end, so what is the significance of it?"
"To practice a skill."
"It should be a very powerful skill, right?" Xie Hanzi asked.
"No one knows whether it is powerful or not, because they have never seen it. Including the two Supreme Palace Masters and Palace Masters."
never seen it? The four Changshengs all looked at Elder Su in confusion.
"The ancestors who founded our Ice Ling Palace left a legacy. When your spiritual consciousness explores Lingyuan, and the light of Lingyuan is always bright instead of flickering, you will naturally see this technique and start practicing."
"In other words, none of your ancestors could practice? But do you know this?"
"Yes. After the powerful man froze Linghai into an ice field, he left Lingyuan here and found a family to take care of him. This family is the ancestor of the ancestor who founded our Ice Ling Palace. Words also flowed from her mouth.”
"And after this family has cared for Lingyuan for more than a million years, the family declined and only one of our ancestors was left. So she founded the Ice Ling Palace so that there would be successors."
: Young Master, there are not many treasures that can freeze Linghai into an ice sheet within four hours.
After Elder Su finished speaking, Hun Li sent a message to Changsheng.
: I thought about it too. That Lingyuan is probably the water species 'Lingyao' owned by the Shui family of the Seven Elements Tribe.
"Elder Su, can you show us this Lingyuan?" Chang Sheng asked expectantly.
"I'm afraid not. There has been an ironclad rule since the establishment of Bingling Palace. Non-saints cannot enter Lingyuan Valley."
After Elder Su finished speaking, he saw Changsheng's eyes rolling, and he quickly said: "And the person who is in charge of Lingyuan Valley is our Supreme Palace Master, who is powerful in the divine realm."
Godly power! That was a peak existence, and there were only about forty of them in the entire Wuji Domain.
In Nanjiang Continent, apart from the three people stationed in the Zhenjie Division, there are only two powerful men in the divine realm. One of them is the Supreme Palace Master of Bingling Palace, and the second is the leader of Taixu Sect.
There was a lively exchange of pleasantries, and everyone was very happy at this meal. After eating, at the suggestion of Elder Su, Granny Yu took Changsheng and Hunli to visit the Ice Ling Palace.
In the entire Bingling Palace, except for Aunt Quan's Ancient Yun Pavilion, which is a stone tower, the other buildings are all made of Bingling jade.
Ice Ling Jade is a jade unique to the Xiling Continent, but its mining is extremely time-consuming and laborious, and carving and shaping is particularly difficult. Therefore, the cost of building Ice Ling Jade is also extremely high.
There are 11 sects in Xiling Continent, but only the Bingling Palace belonging to Nanjiang Continent uses Bingling jade for all its buildings and Yunzhou materials. Other sects simply do not have this financial resources.
"Bingling Palace is really rich and powerful!" Changsheng sighed with emotion.
"Just like elixir refining requires hardening pills, the talismans used for refining weapons and talismans also need to be tempered, including the weapons used by monks. And this tempering must use Lingshui, which is only produced in the Xiling Continent. Come out." Hun Li said.
"It's interesting to say that all 11 sects in Xiling Continent produce Lingshui, but the Lingshui produced by Bingling Palace in Nanjiang Continent is the purest, so it has the highest price, but it also sells the best."
Granny Yu paused: "Because the source of Lingshui is Lingyuan. The Lingshui from Hezhu Old Shop, Wanyang Xue Family and even Jianghai Chamber of Commerce is exclusively supplied by us."
Along the way, the palaces, halls, and pavilions of the Bingling Palace were divided in an orderly and clear manner. Each area was filled with a large group of Bingling jade buildings.
It can be as small as Xingchen Pavilion with only seven pavilions; as large as Shang Xuetang with hundreds of pavilions.
All areas of these palaces, halls, and pavilions are open to the public, and there are no barriers. Only the Lingyuan Palace in the center is separated by a wall that is about 10 feet high.
"Lingyuan Palace is the core of our Bingling Palace. Inside are the Lingyuan Palace, the Elder's Pavilion, and the dormitories of the Supreme Palace Master, the Palace Master, and the seven elders of the Elder's Pavilion."
As a few people walked, Granny Yu explained.
