Meng Zhang's quiet life had only lasted a few days when Shi Weiming, an old friend, came to visit again.
After a few words of greeting, Shi Weiming said directly: "Master Meng, brother, I have brought you a great opportunity to make a fortune."
When Meng Zhang heard the word "get rich", his heart moved.
Taiyi Sect has indeed had some financial problems recently.
Shuangfeng Valley supports Taiyi Sect this time not just because Taiyi Sect is a vassal of Shuangfeng Valley. Instead, Meng Zhang did not hesitate to spend a lot of spiritual stones to feed several elders in Shuangfeng Valley.
If you have money and can lose face to your old enemy, why not enjoy a double harvest?
After all, the Taiyi Sect's two years of mining the Baizang Earth Mine were all in vain, and all the hard-earned money they earned was made cheaper by Shuangfenggu's gang.
In addition, the expenses on the black market are equally huge. Meng Zhang borrowed a large amount of spiritual stones from Jueying to fill this hole.
Although Jueying has never pressed for debt, let alone the issue of interest. But with Meng Zhang's character, it is impossible for him to owe the girl money for a long time without paying back.
If it were not for secretly selling red copper ore to the Dihuo Sect, it would be difficult for the Taiyi Sect to maintain the daily operations of the sect.
The Taiyi Sect's treasury and Meng Zhang's pocket are in urgent need of spiritual stones to replenish.
Meng Zhang was indeed a little interested in the opportunity to make a fortune mentioned by Shi Weiming. But then he thought that the Taiyi Sect had just made such a big splash and slapped Qingzhushan hard in the face. In the near future, it is best to keep a low profile and avoid causing trouble again.
In his heart, Meng Zhang didn't want to get involved in anything too troublesome.
After Shi Weiming finished speaking, he saw that Meng Zhang was not very tempted, so he explained it to him in detail.
More than two years later, it will be the day when the Mirage Secret Realm will be opened.
The so-called secret realm is generally a completely independent space, not on the same level as the real world.
When the Purple Gold Sect ruled the Endless Sand Sea, the Yuanshen True Monarch in the sect spent a lot of effort to open up this secret realm as a trial place for the disciples in the sect's Qi refining period.
This secret realm is the Mirage Secret Realm, located in the center of the Mirage Desert.
After the Zijin Sect collapsed and the Feihong Sect rose. The Feihong Sect without the True Lord Yuanshen can neither open up new secret realms nor completely master the mirage secret realms.
The Mirage Secret Realm is a secret realm for training Qi Refining Stage disciples. Of course, only Qi Refining Stage disciples can enter. There are countless rare treasures inside as rewards for disciples who pass the trial.
The Zijin Sect has been extinct for a long time, and without external supplements, these rare treasures have been almost exhausted. However, as the years go by, the various elixirs grown in the secret realm become more and more abundant.
While Shi Weiming was talking, he handed Meng Zhang a book.
Meng Zhang then opened it and found some detailed information on the elixir. It is well illustrated and very detailed. Including the growth environment of these elixirs, picking techniques, etc.
What is recorded in this book is the various elixirs needed to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.
There are two common foundation-building elixir recipes.
One type requires four main ingredients and eight auxiliary ingredients. And all these elixirs can be collected in the secret realm of mirage.
The other one requires the inner elixir of a third-level monster as the main medicine and the four-flavor elixir as the auxiliary medicine.
The transformation of a monster from second level to third level is an essential change. Third-level monsters not only have the fighting power of real people in the Golden Core stage, but also have intelligence that is not weaker than that of humans, making them very difficult to hunt. Moreover, in the endless sand sea, third-level monsters are very rare.
The Feihong Sect always uses the first type of elixir when refining the foundation-building elixir.
The secret mirage is opened almost once every hundred years. At that time, Feihong Sect will not only send a large number of elite Qi Refining Stage disciples to enter, but will also allow vassal forces and even Qi Refining Stage disciples from external forces to enter.
The Feihong Sect offered high prices for the elixirs collected by everyone in the secret realm. If you can collect the main medicine of the Foundation Establishment Pill or the three auxiliary medicines, you can exchange it for a Foundation Establishment Pill in Feihong Sect.
After so many years, Feihong Sect's reputation on this matter has been well-known by everyone.
Every time the secret realm is opened, the Feihong Sect disciples who enter it will bring a large number of elixir seeds and throw them inside, allowing them to grow in this good natural environment.
Over hundreds of years, even after the crazy collection of cultivators. Not only did the number of elixirs inside not decrease, but they grew more and more prosperously.
Of course, there is also great danger in the mirage secret realm, otherwise Feihong Sect would not let monks from other forces enter like this.
Without the control and management of the Purple Gold Sect, the completely out-of-control Mirage Secret Realm was overrun with monsters, including even second-level monsters.
To kill a second-level monster requires the cooperation of many masters in the late stage of Qi refining, and often requires the use of items refined by monks in the foundation-building stage such as second-level talismans and Yin thunder.
Every time the secret realm is opened, the human monks who enter and the monster beasts inside will engage in a series of bloody battles, with both sides suffering heavy casualties.
After introducing the general situation of the Mirage Secret Realm, Shi Weiming also stated his purpose of coming.
He hoped that when the secret realm of the mirage opened, Meng Zhang could lead the disciples of the Taiyi Sect into it and collect various elixirs.
Shi Weiming paid more than twice as much as the Feihong Sect for the various elixirs he collected. If you can collect a few elixirs for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, you can exchange it for the Foundation Establishment Pill from him according to Feihong Sect's conditions, and there will also be a large amount of additional spiritual stone subsidies.
After many years of transactions, Meng Zhang still has great trust in Shi Weiming's credibility. He was a bit repelled by entering the secret realm.
Taiyi Sect disciples are now in a period of rapid growth, and they certainly cannot sacrifice themselves in vain in the meat grinding ground of the Mirage Secret Realm.
Meng Zhang went there to fight to the death, but lacked enough motivation.
With high-grade spiritual roots, foundation building is a matter of course, and there is no need for foundation building pills at all. As for earning spiritual stones, there is no need to do so.
Meng Zhang is now the master of a sect after all, and the development of Taiyi Sect is on the right track.
Although there are some financial problems at present, with the development of various industries, it will only take a few years to solve this problem.
As for gaining opportunities in the mirage secret realm, Meng Zhang was not even interested.
No opportunity is as important as your own life. In a place where monsters are rampant and many cultivators with malicious intentions are around, the dangers can be imagined.
As long as he is not the child of destiny and has an immortal body, no one dares to say that he will be able to escape unscathed.
Now is no longer the stage of starting from scratch. After you have accumulated a certain amount of money, you need to be careful and seek stability. Don't do things where the risks and benefits are out of proportion.
Meng Zhang restrained his greed and declined Shi Weiming's request, saying that he was not interested in the secret realm of the mirage at all.
