While garrisoning, the sky darkened.
Shen Long and Qian Dafu appeared at the door of a small red-tiled courtyard. On the left hand side of the door hung a green wooden sign with the three characters "Fenglin Courtyard" written on it.
Qian Dafu issued a transmission note and waited quietly.
"Fellow Daoist Qian, long time no see."
A female voice sounded.
Qian Dafu looked along the source of the sound and saw a beautiful woman in a green skirt in her early forties walking towards him, with Huang Xiuyun following her.
"Friend Daoist Shen, long time no see."
Huang Xiuyun greeted Shen Long. She was only in the early stage of foundation building.
"Huang Fairy, long time no see."
Shen Long smiled slightly.
"Senior Brother Shen, you know each other!"
Qian Dafu was a little surprised.
Shen Long nodded, his eyes fell on the young woman in the green skirt, and he said politely: "Shen Long."
"I am in Xiu, and I have met Daoist Shen."
The young woman in the green skirt introduced herself.
At this time, the courtyard door opened and Zhao Feng came out.
He had already entered the foundation building stage, but it was only the early stage of foundation building. When he saw Shen Long and Huang Xiuyun, he was a little surprised and said with a smile, "Long time no see. Fellow Daoist Shen and Fairy Huang, come in and talk."
Shen Long and the other four walked in, and Zhao Feng closed the courtyard door.
There is a three-story yellow attic and a yellow stone pavilion in the courtyard. A huge moonstone hangs in the pavilion, which blooms with soft white light and illuminates the entire courtyard.
Five men and three women were sitting in the stone pavilion. The leader was a woman in a white dress with a plump figure and snow-white skin. She had the cultivation of Dzogchen.
Shen Long saw Lu Yudie, Wei Tianbao and Lin Sisi. Lu Yudie and Wei Tianbao had both entered the foundation building stage, but they were only in the early stage of foundation building.
Wei Tianbao and Lu Yudie greeted Shen Long one after another. They were both a little surprised that Shen Long had actually entered the middle stage of foundation building.
"I haven't seen you for many years. I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Shen to be in the middle stage of foundation building. Let me introduce to you. This is Senior Brother Lu Fenglu."
Wei Tianbao pointed at a tall young man in a green shirt and said.
"I met Fellow Daoist Lu in Xia Shenlong."
Shen Long cupped his fists and said.
Lu Feng nodded as a greeting.
"I am Li Shuang. I heard from Fellow Daoist Qian that Fellow Daoist Shen is an alchemist."
The woman in the white dress said with a smile and a warm tone.
"Well, I have learned a little bit. Is Mrs. Li also an alchemist?"
Shen Long said.
"I'm not, sit down and chat."
Li Shuang said enthusiastically, invited them to sit down, picked up the teapot and poured them tea.
Everyone started chatting and talked about the war between the fifth sect of Qin and the fourth sect of Zhao. Zhao Feng asked curiously: "Fellow Daoist Shen, didn't you participate in the war? I asked about you from fellow Taoists of Yuling Sect, and they all said do not know you."
"No, I was sent to work elsewhere and did not participate in the war."
Shen Long explained.
He will not reveal his undercover career to avoid unnecessary trouble.
"I heard that fellow Daoist Han from your sect is extremely powerful and has killed more than a dozen foundation-building monks. Will he also participate in this Xuanyang massacre?"
Shen Long asked casually.
"Fellow Daoist Shen is talking about Senior Brother Han Long and Han! Senior Brother Han is not here, so he is probably in the process of forming the core."
Zhao Feng said.
"Our Senior Brother Lu from Ba Dao Villa is not weak either. He killed two late-stage Foundation Establishment monks."
Wei Tianbao said proudly.
"Friend Lu Dao?"
Shen Long looked at Lu Feng.
"It's not me, that's my brother Lu Han."
Lu Feng explained.
"Senior Sister Lin is not weak either. She led the team to capture a second-level mineral vein and killed seven foundation-building monks."
Qian Dafu said.
"Compared with fellow Daoist Lu, I'm far behind."
Lin Sisi spoke modestly, with a look of pride on her face.
"It's strange to say that the Qingyun Mountains are the border between the two countries. Logically speaking, both countries have sent people to investigate. There is indeed a vein of minerals. They have been discovered a long time ago. There is actually a vein of gold and jade."
Huang Xiuyun said curiously.
"Ore veins are formed the day after tomorrow, and the quantity is not fixed. Otherwise, all the metal veins in the world of immortality would have been mined long ago."
Lu Feng explained.
"I know it was formed the day after tomorrow. What I mean is that the Jin Lang Jade vein does not appear anywhere else but in the Qingyun Mountains."
Huang Xiuyun added.
Li Shuang said: "The metal veins in the Immortal Realm were indeed formed the day after tomorrow, but it took too long. Even if they were formed the day after tomorrow, they should have been discovered long ago. There is news that the ones left by the Huoyang Clan were hidden using formations. stand up."
"Huoyang Clan? That's not true! It's been so many years. How can some formation be so powerful that it can operate for millions of years?"
Huang Xiuyun said doubtfully.
"What Huang Fairy doesn't know is that some of the Huoyang tribe fled the Donghua Immortal Cultivation World. They hid some immortal cultivation resources, such as mineral veins, secret realms, elixir gardens, spiritual eye springs, etc. If they come back after their cultivation is greatly improved, the mineral veins It’s not easy to take it away, it’s okay to mine some, this has happened before.”
Zhao Feng explained.
"Fire Sun Clan!"
Shen Long was a little surprised. He didn't expect to be related to the Huoyang Clan.
"There is such a thing! No wonder."
Huang Xiuyun suddenly realized.
"There is no evidence, and we are not sure that it was left behind by the Huoyang Clan, but one thing is certain. The Huoyang Clan left many secret realms, some of which have not been discovered yet. The Tang family of Shu discovered Huoyang A secret realm left by the clan, they obtained a large amount of resources for cultivating immortals, and developed from a small and low-ranking clan into the number one clan for cultivating immortals in the Kingdom of Shu."
Li Shuang's face was filled with envy.
The value of a secret realm is immeasurable. The Tang family discovered a secret realm and soared into the sky.
"That's right! In its heyday, the Huoyang Clan was the largest clan in the Donghua Immortal Cultivation World. They were extremely rich. What a pity."
Lu Feng said in a regretful tone.
"It's no pity. This is what the Huoyang tribe asked for. They joined forces with the barbarians to deal with us humans. We deserve to be destroyed by the barbarians."
Li Shuang disagreed.
After chatting for more than an hour, Li Shuang proposed exchanging immortal cultivation resources, which was unanimously approved by everyone.
Shen Long exchanged Huang Xingdan for two Yun Shen Fruits and some second-level weapon refining materials. The only drawback was that he did not get the second-level dragon essence and blood.
Qian Dafu changed some talisman-making materials, and Shen Long guessed that he gave them to Ye Yuqing to make talismans.
Lin Sisi exchanged the demon elixir for the second-level demon bird and successfully obtained it.
After the exchange, everyone chatted for a while and then went back to their respective homes.
After leaving Fenglin Courtyard, Shen Long hadn't gone very far when Lin Sisi called out to Shen Long.
"I didn't expect that Junior Brother Shen is an alchemist. You can come and sit at my residence when you have time."
Lin Sisi said.
Among the disciples who entered the same batch, only some have advanced to the foundation building stage. Shen Long and Lin Sisi have both reached the middle stage of foundation building, while the others are only in the early stage of foundation building.
Shen Long was a second-level alchemist and one of the Seventy-Two Shows, which made Lin Sisigao take a look and take the initiative to show his kindness.
"I'll definitely go over and sit down when I have time."
Shen Long agreed.
Lin Sisi nodded, turned and left.
"Senior Brother Shen, seize the opportunity. I heard that many senior brothers are pursuing Senior Sister Lin. Hey, if you marry Senior Sister Lin, you will have an alchemy monk as your backer."
Qian Dafu said via message.
Shen Long smiled calmly and said, "Junior brother Qian, don't get me wrong. This is the first time we have talked since we started."
Behind Lin Sisi is Jin Chan, who has the alchemy monk as a backer. Since she started, Lin Sisi has never interacted with Shen Long and other disciples who started.
The mountains will fall if you rely on them, and everyone will run if you rely on them. You are the most reliable.
"Hey, if it were Senior Brother Gu, he would
I will definitely not miss this opportunity. "
Qian Dafu chuckled and joked.
Gu Tianhong has entered the foundation building stage, but his mind is not focused on cultivation. Instead, he is pursuing female monks with background or strong financial resources.
Shen Long smiled calmly, everyone has their own ambitions.
Qian Dafu took out a golden dharma plate, entered a dharma secret, and frowned.
"What, are you in trouble?"
Shen Long asked.
"That's not true. A friend informed me that there will be an underground auction tomorrow night at the Jinyu Building. But I have something to do tomorrow night."
Qian Dafu said.
"What's so important?"
Shen Long asked casually.
"Hey, I made an appointment with some shopkeepers to discuss some business with them."
Qian Dafu chuckled, his face full of pride.
"I'll help you keep an eye on what resources you need for cultivating immortals. You can have a good talk with them. If you need spiritual stones, just ask."
Shen Long said.
"I really need it. I need 20,000 spiritual stones. I plan to purchase some immortal cultivation resources and sell them back. I will definitely make a profit."
Qian Dafu said.
Shen Long took out a golden storage bag, handed it to Qian Dafu, and said, "There are 30,000 spiritual stones in it. It's up to you to decide which products you want to buy! When will the underground auction be held?"
"Tomorrow night during the garrison! I will definitely have a good talk with them. I guarantee we can make a fortune."
Qian Dafu patted his chest and promised.
Shen Long nodded. He understood Qian Dafu's personality. Qian Dafu was obsessed with businessmen. He managed the store very carefully. All expenses were recorded in detail and checked by Shen Long.
Otherwise, Shen Long would not have been so generous in giving 30,000 spiritual stones to Qian Dafu to buy goods.
Shen Long nodded, and the two of them wandered on the street.
When passing a fork in the road, Qian Dafu met two business friends, said hello to Shen Long, and went to discuss business with his friends.
Shen Long strolled on the street, taking a look.
Half an hour later, he appeared in a vast bluestone square. There were many stalls here. He walked around and took a look.
He would hang out here whenever he had time, hoping to pick up the leaks, but he was unable to do so for the time being.
He suddenly quickened his pace and came to a small stall. The stall owner was a burly man in a golden shirt in his early forties, with a strong aura and a late-stage foundation-building cultivation.
There are a lot of monster materials on the stall, as well as elixirs and spiritual trees.
"What kind of demonic beast's inner elixir is this?"
Shen Long asked, pointing to a bloody demon pill.
"The inner elixir of blood butterfly in the late second stage. In order to kill this demon, one of my friends was killed."
The big man in gold shirt explained.
"I want this demon pill."
A female voice like a silver bell sounded.
As soon as he finished speaking, a bell rang, and accompanied by a gust of fragrant wind, a slim girl in a green skirt appeared in front of the stall.
The girl in the green skirt has some mysterious lines on her skin, which are natural. She wears a lot of silver jewelry, and has a blue bell on her hands and feet.
Judging from his aura, he has a cultivation level in the late stage of foundation building.
"Witch Clan!"
Shen Long frowned slightly. He had seen descriptions of Wu Clan monks in the classics, and had also seen the images of Wu Clan monks in the Reflection Crystal of the Sutra Pavilion.
He was certain that the girl in green skirt in front of him was the Witch Clan.
"I want to change the materials for making talismans. I just want to exchange them, not sell them."
The big man in gold shirt said.
The girl in the green skirt took out a blue jade box and handed it to the man in the gold shirt. The man in the gold shirt opened the jade box and found a crystal clear blue jade inside.
The big man in the golden shirt looked happy and looked at Shen Long. Shen Long took out a cyan porcelain bottle, handed it to the big man in the golden shirt, and said via voice transmission: "This is a bottle of beast spirit pill, how about it?"
"This demon pill belongs to the fairy."
The man in gold shirt returned the porcelain vase to Shen Long and gave the demon pill to Young Man in Qingqun.
female.
Shen Long didn't say anything. Whoever sells things is the owner's right.
The girl in the green skirt put away the demon pill and strode away.
Shen Long continued to wander around and bought some weapon refining materials.
After a cup of tea, he left Qingshi Square and returned to Yulingyuan.
He walked into a secret room, sat down cross-legged, and meditated.
······
In a secluded small courtyard with green tiles, an old woman in purple robe with a rosy face was sitting in a blue stone pavilion. A girl in a green skirt walked in, it was the girl who bought the demon pill.
"Grandma, I bought a late-stage second-level demon pill that transforms into a blood butterfly."
The girl in the green skirt said with a smile, her face full of pride.
"Duo'er, be careful. This is not our witch clan's territory. Don't be so showy."
The old woman in purple robe warned.
"I know, grandma, by the way, there will be an underground auction tomorrow night, and many foundation-building monks will participate. I plan to attend, hoping to get some good things."
Wu Duoer's face showed longing.
"We came all the way to the Donghua Immortal Realm not to enjoy the scenery. Please pay attention to the news about the traitor and hope to find him soon so that we can go back as soon as possible."
The old woman in purple robe said with a heavy voice.
"I know about Grandma, but the world of immortality is so big that it is not easy to find him. After so many years, maybe he has died and the thing has disappeared, and that thing may have fallen into the hands of humans or barbarians."
Wu Duo'er analyzed.
"We do not rule out the possibility that within a certain range, the treasure we brought can sense the location of this treasure. We will take a few turns in the hope of finding that thing. This treasure is very important to our Witch Clan. Over the years, The high priest sent a large number of people to search for this treasure, but they couldn't find it. If we find it, it will be a great achievement."
The old woman in purple robe had a look of longing on her face.
"I hope so!"
Wu Duoer nodded.
······
The day passed quickly, and the sky became dark the next night.
In Yulingyuan, the door of a secret room opened, and a young man in blue shirt with ordinary features came out. It was Shen Long who had changed his appearance.
He used the Baigen Mask to change his appearance and put on civilian clothes.
This is Xuanyangfang City. Shen Long came here with the Danjie monk. It stands to reason that he would not be afraid even if he takes a good photo, but he is used to being cautious and plans to use a fake appearance to participate in the underground auction.
After leaving the Yuling Garden, Shen Long quickened his pace.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, he appeared at the door of a nine-story golden attic, with the three characters "Golden Jade Tower" engraved on the plaque.
He strode in. There were many tables in the lobby. A dozen monks were sitting together in twos and threes, drinking tea and chatting. An old man in green robes who was over sixty years old was sitting behind the counter, looking through the account books.
