Zhang Tang patted Zhang Qing on the shoulder.
"Brother, it's not that your brother won't help you, it's just my uncle who doesn't help you."
"As for Xuanfengyuan, it's not a good place, but it does train people. The reason why I don't want you to go is because it's your first time away from the family and you don't understand many things."
Zhang Tang pointed to the mine outside, "Brother, do you think it's safe here?"
Zhang Qing took a look and said, "A few foundation-building elders are in charge, and there are dozens of late-stage Qi practitioners. It shouldn't be too dangerous, right?"
"But there are fights here every month. Every month, some casual cultivators come to attack the Xuanyan Mine. At that time, people will die."
"Normally, you can only meet him once every few months in other places, and with brothers like us here, we can take care of you even if there is a fight, but Xuan Fengyuan is different."
"There are battles there every month because it is the farthest away from the mine, and it is easiest for Xuanyan ore to be blown out under the Xuanfeng Abyss."
"Several foundation-building monks are stationed in important places. They cannot move around casually. Therefore, if something happens to Xuanfengyuan, there will be no support from the foundation-building elders."
"In addition, the people over there are not as easy to talk to as we are. We might start fighting among ourselves over the ore in the abyss."
"In the end, it's all about practice." Zhang Tang pointed to the surrounding mines.
"This is the Xuanyan Mine. What is the Xuanyan Ore? It is the spiritual beings of heaven and earth. The gathering of heavenly and earthly spiritual beings as big as the entire mountain range gives this place a natural spirit gathering formation. The speed of cultivation is twice the result with half the effort. But in Xuanfeng Abyss, the effect is But it’s much worse.”
"We can't refine the turbid energy yet. You know this, right?"
Zhang Qing nodded. Heaven and earth can distinguish between pure and turbid qi. In the past, practitioners were not afraid of pure and turbid qi, but now many practitioners practice immortal magic.
Immortals only swallow clean energy, so those who practice immortality can only drive away the turbid energy in the spiritual energy, leaving only the pure energy for refining.
This can be regarded as a means of restriction and balance for those who practice immortal magic, so that they can be powerful while making it difficult for them to practice.
"There are Qingling formations in many places in the mine, but there are none in Xuanfengyuan."
"I probably understand." Zhang Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, brother, it's my first time away from the family to work, and the time itself won't be too long. I have to go back in two months, so there won't be any delay."
"Yes, two months is nothing." Zhang Tang also realized that he no longer cared about it, and after coming back to his senses, he guessed that the uncle also made the arrangement with this in mind.
…
Xuanfengyuan is actually a 100-meter wide canyon. The river below is rushing and there is only an iron rope bridge above.
Of course, in the world of cultivation, the iron cable bridge is not made of iron cables, but made of leftover materials from the Xuanyan Mine. There are also formation patterns arranged by the foundation-building monks on it, which is extremely hard.
Zhang Qing's mission is to guard this Xuanfeng Abyss with the other five Zhang family members who are in the late stages of Qi training. One is to guard the rope bridge and prevent some casual cultivators from entering the mountains to steal. The other has a similar meaning.
The 100-meter-wide Xuanfeng Abyss is connected to the depths of the mountains, so there will always be Xuanyan ore accidentally blown out and flowing through the Xuanfeng Abyss along the underground river.
Their mission is to stop the flow of Xuanyan ore and prevent anyone from going deep into these underground rivers to cause damage to the mineral veins.
However, because the tasks here are relatively heavy, the Xuanyan ore flowing from the underground river has become an additional harvest for the monks guarding here.
"For this reason, this place is quite popular, and many people want to make a fortune here."
Xuan Fengyuan, someone also introduced Zhang Qing to the overt and covert things here, and according to their blood relationship, the two of them were even closer.
"The family is roughly divided into five rooms. Within each room, the divisions are actually not so clear. This is also one of the ways to unite the family more closely, so you can just call me Ninth Brother. As for my real name, my name is Zhang Mingxian. "
"Brother Ninth."
Zhang Mingxian nodded, "If you call me Ninth Brother, I can't treat you badly."
After saying that, a dark net appeared in his hand, made of something unknown, and Zhang Qing could feel the icy chill from it.
"In Xuanfengyuan, because we need to often go down to grab the ores flowing out of the mountains, we don't have many methods, and most of them are related to flames. Therefore, if we want to gain something in the rapids, we need tools."
"This kind of fishing net is the best method. I made it simply and it is enough for catching rocks."
"Tomorrow, I don't need to be on duty up there tomorrow. I'll take you down there to see what's going on."
Zhang Mingxian is not very good at communicating with others. After briefly talking about some precautions, he started practicing with his legs crossed and his eyes closed.
This guy didn't want to waste any time. Looking at Zhang Mingxian's actions, Zhang Qing couldn't help but admire him.
He has experienced that the cultivation speed is not as fast as the combination of Spirit Gathering Formation and Qingling Formation.
"I'm afraid the foundation is about to be established."
Building a foundation is not easy, especially for the Zhang family who practice immortality. The requirements for foundation building are really high.
While thinking wildly, Zhang Qing heard some movement, and when he looked at the door, four wet figures had already walked in.
"Of these four people, the one on the far left is Lou Shaoen, and the ones next to him are Lin An, Ji Yue, and Wang Lin."
"Among them, Lou Shaoen and Ji Yue both married women from my Zhang family, and Lin An and Wang Lin were born to the elders who married into the family. There is no need to be polite to them. No matter who they are from, they are now members of the Zhang family. .”
After several people came back from the abyss, Zhang Mingxian also stopped practicing. He introduced Zhang Qing to them without hesitation, and then told the four people Zhang Qing's name.
"Mingxian is right. We are all a family. Is this your first time leaving Lake Center Island?"
Ji Yue spoke to Zhang Qing very familiarly, "In this way, you have to be at least twenty-seventh in the fifth house of this generation. I am also your brother. I will take you down to experience it tomorrow. Once you get to Xuan Feng Yuan, it will be a lot of fun down there."
This person talks a lot more than Zhang Mingxian, and he can observe Zhang Qing's character very well. Maybe this is why he can marry a daughter of the Zhang family with no background?
"Brother Ji, I heard from the brother at the mine that the Xuanyan Mine is actually not absolutely peaceful. Can you tell me what it is like?"
Facing a familiar clan brother, Zhang Qing would naturally not let go of the opportunity to ask.
Ji Yue was silent for a moment and then said: "Actually, you may meet him soon."
