Jiang Baiyi, as a pure casual cultivator.
During the Qi training period, he had accumulated a lot of resources in Zhulinfang City, which was the basis for his ability to reach the later stage of Qi training.
After reaching Foundation Establishment, the original resources were no longer enough to support the cultivation of Foundation Establishment monks, so new methods were used.
In short, resources.
Without resources, no matter how talented a monk is, he can only die in the process of cultivation.
This is the problem of Zhang Qing's identity. His source of resources can easily expose his identity.
If anyone is interested and investigates carefully, they can guess that Mr. Jing is a disciple of the Zhang family.
There must be an independent source of information to separate Zhang Qing and Mr. Jing, at least in the eyes of outsiders.
And just like Jiang Baiyi, it was difficult to break through Yun Mengze's situation that had been stable for two hundred years through ordinary methods, so he could only choose to find another way.
Even the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce, where three golden lotus cultivators and thousands of practitioners gathered together, had no choice but to become a chamber of commerce, and they only recently had the opportunity to take root.
Yunmengze's various resources already have owners. Zhang Qing does not have the strength and size of the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce, so he can only choose other paths.
In addition, Zhang Qing's own wishes are also the key. He wants to see the world, and at the same time he does not want to face dangers again and again without knowing anything.
So Fengyulou appeared.
The existence of spiritual resource points like Xuanyan Mine can certainly allow a force to rise quickly, but it is not the only way.
When he was in Lieyangfang City, Zhang Qing saw the impact of the news from Lingxifang City. In many places, information and intelligence itself are a huge resource.
For these things, it is difficult for casual cultivators to get accurate answers through communication. Even among the four clans, there are many things they don't know.
The matter of the wind media was the opportunity that Zhang Qing saw, and the power of transforming the Three Pure Ones into one breath gave him an unparalleled advantage.
Once a rogue cultivator like Luan Xun is controlled, deception and back-up are almost non-existent, and when such a person appears in the team of rogue cultivators, they can continuously bring enough information to Zhang Qing.
Maybe the news is not important, but sometimes countless pieces of information come together to reveal the truth about many things.
Zhang Qing wanted nothing more than this.
"Under the sky, wind and rain are everywhere." Zhang Qing smiled slightly, twitching the fishing rod in his hand, and a palm-sized cyan fish struggled to jump out of the lake and broke the fishing line.
Qing Meng on the side said in surprise: "Second uncle, the fish has grown up."
"There's still some time left."
Luan Xun's appearance is just an exception for Linyuan City and Qingyue Lake. This was once a city where mortals lived, and it would be difficult for practitioners to walk here without being familiar with them.
Less than half a month after leaving, Luan Xun returned to Qingyue Lake, telling the news he had received with lingering fear.
"With the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce as the center, attacks from all directions have intensified. Many monks who purchased and auctioned resources at the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce were unable to leave safely."
Luan Xun was a little frightened. He never thought that this matter would turn out like this. Read a book
The originally safe place of practice also became in danger. Out of fear, he had no choice but to return to Qingyue Lake. After all, Mr. Jing, who had built a foundation of cultivation, was here. For him, there was no safer place than here. .
"Many casual cultivators I know have disappeared. I don't know whether they are dead or hiding."
"As far as my subordinates know, there have been several Immortal Cultivation Families with advanced stages of Qi training that have disappeared in the past half month, but no one has been seen occupying their territory yet."
Zhang Qing understood that this was inevitable. Where there was killing, there was death. Not every time it was the rootless cultivators who suffered, and even the cultivating forces who stood on the bright side were more likely to be attacked secretly.
"After you leave next time, you can reveal the existence of Qingyue Lake in a simple way." Zhang Qing said casually, which surprised Luan Xun, but Zhang Qing did not rush him to leave, so he didn't say anything more.
Zhang Qing looked to the left and right of Fengyu Tower, and then pointed at the lake not far away.
Cyan light surged under the lake. After a while, a single-story wooden house was suspended on the surface of the lake. "You can live here temporarily."
"Thank you, Mr. Jing." Luan Xun's face lit up, wasn't that what he wanted.
Zhang Qing and Qing Meng returned to Linyuan City. After Zhao Jingmeng left last time, no one from the Zhao family came to harass the city again.
"News came from the clan. The Shui family also took action and captured dozens of mortal cities." A map in Zhang Qing's hand was placed in front of Zhang Yunyuan, with a large area covered in blue.
"Besides, the Shui family and the Gu family are fighting."
Zhang Yunyuan was a little surprised, "Isn't it the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce and the Gu family?"
"The Jinlan Sect took action. All the Gu family members, except for the one who planted golden lotus, returned to the peak. On the contrary, it was the Shui family who chose to sneak attack the Gu family members after they left the first peak."
"Many of the dozens of cities acquired by the Shui family were originally targeted by the Gu family."
"Will there be a fight?" Zhang Yunyuan is most concerned about this, whether it is the Lingyue Chamber of Commerce or the Shui family, whether they will fight with the Gu family.
Zhang Qing shook his head, "Since Jinlan Sect has taken action, it will be difficult to fight, and the monsters in the south don't know what the situation is."
"But the Jinlan Sect can't stop them for long. The Lingyue Chamber of Commerce has nothing but spirit stones now. It's not a good thing to corner them. The three of them are growing golden lotuses."
"In that case, it has nothing to do with us."
"Who said no?" Zhang Qing said with a smile.
"You should keep an eye on Linyuan City during this period. If it doesn't work, go find that clan brother. I plan to leave for a while."
The Lingyue Chamber of Commerce and the Shuigu family are in chaos, which is a good thing for the Zhang family, and it is a rare opportunity for Zhang Qing.
Fengyu Tower has just been established, and he needs enough information to be exchanged for resources, and what everyone is most concerned about is the four clans, right?
What information is more accurate than what comes from the mouths of those direct descendants.
Zhang Qing does not necessarily need their power, but he needs the information they have access to. Even the family has no way of knowing that information immediately.
After explaining to Zhang Yunyuan, Zhang Qing left Linyuan City quietly.
When he appeared again, he was already in a place called Xianze City.
"The Gu family knows how to choose a place, but the Zhao family doesn't respond at all?" Looking at this majestic city, Zhang Qing couldn't help but be surprised, because this city was obviously built by a large number of practitioners, but it was actually used on mortals.
"Did the people from Yunmeng Pavilion build it hundreds of years ago?" Zhang Qing had never heard of one of the four clans doing such a thing.
