The original name of Jiuhan Mountain is the Xiaohan Mountains. It is the territory of the fourth-order monster Cangqing Divine Falcon. It has been ruled by this monster for more than three hundred years. It is the largest monster mountain range on the outskirts of the Southern Wilderness.
The entire mountain range runs in a north-south direction and covers an area of more than 3,000 miles. It has become a natural barrier against the invasion of the Chu Kingdom's inland by the monsters of the Southern Wilderness.
Because of this, this place is an extremely important first line of defense in the Chu Kingdom's battle against the demonic beasts.
Ever since Ancestor Jiang killed the Cangqing Divine Falcon and occupied this fourth-level Xiaohan Mountain Range, it was renamed Jiuhan Mountain.
Tiannanfang City was also established in the third year after Jiuhan Mountain was established.
"What a rich spiritual energy!"
"This Jiuhan Mountain is indeed a fourth-level spiritual vein!"
Riding on the dragon boat, Lu Changfeng marveled at the vast and magnificent mountains in front of him.
"When will our Qingshan Sect be able to possess this level of spiritual veins!"
The tone was full of envy.
At present, the grade of Qinglian Mountain's spiritual veins is only the second-grade mid-grade. Compared with the Jiuhan Mountain in front of us, the difference is too far.
As for the fourth-level spiritual vein, this is the most basic spiritual vein that satisfies the cultivation of Jindan monks.
Under the cultivation of Ancestor Jiang, this Jiuhan Mountain spiritual vein has reached the fourth level of high-grade, which is one of the highest-grade spiritual veins in the Chu Kingdom.
Not only that, there are nine third-level spiritual veins in Jiuhan Mountain, all of which are the properties of Ancestor Jiang.
On top of these nine third-level spiritual veins, many caves and courtyards, as well as spiritual fields, medicinal fields, etc. have been built.
Except for three of the spiritual veins that are used for the residence of the disciples, the remaining six spiritual veins are for casual cultivators to pay for their residence and practice.
Ancestor Jiang himself lives in the place where spiritual energy gathers in Jiuhan Mountain, and occupies the most suitable place for cultivation in Jiuhan Mountain.
The entire Jiuhan Mountain is also protected by a fourth-order formation, the Hunyuan Fierce Formation, which can resist the attacks of the three Golden Core cultivators.
After more than a hundred years of development, Jiang Laozu's industry has dominated the development of Tiannanfang City and is the backbone of Tiannanfang City.
"The spiritual veins of Qinglian Mountain can also continue to be cultivated in the future, gradually giving birth to more intense spiritual energy, which will one day be comparable to that of Jiuhan Mountain."
Lu Yuanshan smiled and said: "Let's go in. Flying in the air is prohibited in Jiuhan Mountain, and it is not suitable for flying ships to enter. We still have to abide by the rules."
Lu Zhiwei and Lu Changfeng nodded, took the flying boat, stopped outside Jiuhan Mountain, and chose to enter on foot.
After entering Jiuhan Mountain, the spiritual energy became a bit more intense, and the surrounding scenery appeared like a vast swamp.
The place maintains its original ecological appearance, and occasionally there are poisonous insects and wild animals.
As a gathering place for casual cultivators, the ecology here seems very bad to mortals. Almost no mortals can stay here and survive here.
Precisely because this place is not suitable for mortals to live, Ancestor Jiang has not established a family of immortals since he occupied this spiritual vein, and he has not even thought of starting a sect.
Ancestor Jiang himself is used to living alone and has adapted to the life of a casual cultivator. He only occasionally takes on a few disciples.
Due to the huge area of Jiuhan Mountain, it was already half a day by the time Lu Yuanshan entered Tiannanfang City.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
Tiannanfang City is more than six times the size of Qinghefang City. The streets in Tiannanfang City are criss-crossed and the shops are numerous and prosperous.
The pedestrians walking through the street are all casual cultivators.
Among them, Qi training and casual cultivation accounted for the majority.
A few foundation-building casual cultivators also appeared.
Many of these casual cultivators are outsiders who come here to participate in the Tiannan Barter Conference.
Many people wore masks or disguised themselves, so it was impossible to determine their true origins from their appearance.
Many of them are also unknown people.
The foundation-building monks here seemed very ordinary and not worth mentioning.
Because of this, Lu Yuanshan seemed very cautious.
With more than 30,000 spiritual stones in his possession, plus heavenly fire, purple gold, copper, thousand-year spiritual milk, golden silkworms and other treasures, he was really afraid of being coveted by others.
To many monks, this level of wealth is simply a piece of fat. The temptation is so great that even crystallized monks will be a little tempted.
Although Tiannanfang City explicitly prohibits the use of force among monks, no one dares to violate this rule under the eyes of Patriarch Jiang.
But it doesn't mean that after leaving the market, you won't be followed and stared at.
Previously, Lu Xuelian was intercepted and killed by Chen Yuerong, which also sounded the alarm for Lu Yuanshan.
Caution is the boat.
In the world of immortality, as long as there is enough profit motivation, killing people, seizing treasures, and breaking rules are common things.
After wandering around for a while, Lu Yuanshan suggested that he first inquire about the news.
The Tiannan Barter Conference will be held in ten days, and there are many monks who have arrived early. They all want to arrive first to understand the situation of the Barter Conference and prepare for it.
The Tiannan Barter Conference was held in Hanshan Pavilion.
Hanshan Pavilion, this is the shop opened by Ancestor Jiang, and it is also the largest immortal cultivation shop in Tiannanfang City, accounting for more than 80% of the revenue in Tiannanfang City.
Ancestor Jiang himself is also extremely talented. He is proficient in formations, alchemy, weapon refining, talismans, and even beast taming among the various arts of cultivating immortals. His attainments are all above the third level of low-grade.
In terms of cultivating immortality and various arts, he surpassed Lu Ping.
In the minds of the casual cultivators of the Chu Kingdom, Patriarch Jiang was the number one cultivator, an insurmountable peak.
The disciples that Ancestor Jiang has taken under his sect over the years will also inherit some of Ancestor Jiang's alchemy and weapon refining heritage based on their own talents, and their attainments are all quite good.
The Foundation Establishment Pill that was taken out this time was personally refined by Ancestor Jiang for a young apprentice.
The young apprentice only needs one or two Foundation Establishment Pills to build the foundation, and all the extra Foundation Establishment Pills are taken to Hanshan Pavilion.
Not only are the elixirs and magic weapons refined by Ancestor Jiang not only of good quality, but also of the highest quality, and the prices are very reasonable, which makes monks from all over the Chu Kingdom often come here to buy them.
As a reputable Jindan Ancestor, even if Lu Yuanshan and others came to Hanshan Pavilion, Ancestor Jiang could not just meet him.
Ancestor Jiang usually keeps a low profile, has a cold temperament, and rarely shows up. The Hanshan Pavilion under his command is managed by his disciple Liu Qiumei.
After entering Hanshan Pavilion, several people did not see Liu Qiumei, but a foundation-building monk took the initiative to come forward to receive her.
"I, Xu Shangyang, have met three fellow Taoists."
Xu Shangyang has an elegant appearance and is middle-aged. He looks very friendly and gives people a feeling of spring breeze.
"Foundation Building Monk..."
Realizing that Xu Shangyang's cultivation was not hidden at all, Lu Yuanshan murmured secretly in his heart.
As expected of Hanshan Pavilion, the family has a big business, with Patriarch Jiang as its backer, and every clerk is a foundation-building monk, let alone Liu Qiumei, who is in charge.
Xu Shangyang was very enthusiastic and invited Lu Yuanshan and the others to move into the cabinet room and sit down. He made three cups of tea and then asked with a smile.
"I see three fellow Taoists meeting each other, and I wonder where they come from?"
