"Exactly, Uncle Wang Mingjian." The young man in yellow clothes praised him. Seeing that Wang Tianzhao had no expression on his face, he hurriedly continued: "According to the local villagers, it seems that they are not outsiders, but some people in the village. The common people accidentally embarked on the path to immortality and are now entrenched not far outside the village. I guess they may have been lucky enough to find a spiritual vein to occupy, so I reported it to my uncle."
"Local people?" Wang Tianzhao frowned slightly and asked again: "Is it the village where the evil ghost hurt people?"
"No, this village is located south of the village where the ghosts hurt people. Most of the villagers are named Li. The spies called it Lijia Village."
"Yes, I understand." After hearing this, Wang Tianzhao nodded and said, "You did a good job. Count your ten contribution points. Go ahead."
The young man's face lit up with joy, he thanked him and said, "Thank you, Uncle Wang." Then he said goodbye and left.
"A native monk from the Buffer Land?"
Wang Tianzhao looked at the young monk's leaving figure and pondered slightly.
There are a total of five major sects in the land of Dongyi, each occupying the six states of Wei. Among them, most areas of Ningzhou and Jinzhou are controlled by Xuantian Sword Sect. The Xuantian Sword Sect is a sword cultivating sect. It was originally a medium-sized sect in the Zhennan Land. It rose up during the Pingyi War and occupied the northern area of the Dongyi Land.
After the Pingyi War, in order to ensure the recuperation of the human race here, the five major sects in the Dongyi Land ordered that within two decades, the sects in the Dongyi Land were not allowed to attack each other, and were not allowed to compete for the buffer land. Cultivation resources. At the same time, every large and small sect belonging to Dongyi must send people to eliminate the remaining demon forces in Dongyi every ten years. Those who disobey orders will be treated as demon spies.
Now, more than a hundred years have passed since the Battle of Pingyi, and the time for the two Jiazi is coming soon. Many sects that settled here have gradually recovered, and their ambitions for the buffer land and even the cultivation resources occupied by other sects have gradually begun to show. In ten years, the ban on the five major Dongyi sects from attacking each other will expire. Therefore, some sects have already begun to make moves.
Their Jinding Gate, Yugui Gate on the other side of the mountain, and Qiwei Gate to the west all belong to them.
As early as five years ago, disciples from several sects began to gradually enter the buffer zone, and the friction between them also increased. However, these frictions were controlled within an acceptable range to test Xuantian Sword Sect's reaction.
However, the monks from Xuantian Sword Sect have noticed their little movements. Although they didn't express much, they more or less sent some disciples to monitor their actions.
After thinking for a while, Wang Tianzhao stretched out his hand, and another roll of rice paper flew from the bookshelf on the side and was spread out in front of him. Wang Tianzhao stared at the rice paper and pondered for a moment, then raised his pen and wrote on it: "There seems to be an indigenous monk among the villagers of Lijia Village at the foot of Yuepan Mountain, and he has sent his disciples to investigate. On the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Wang Tianzhao wrote."
After writing, he waved to the two disciples, handed the rolled rice paper to one of them, and said: "Send it to the main hall, and also take it to the left outer cabinet."
The disciple took the rice paper, followed the order and left. Wang Tianzhao didn't keep the other disciple waiting for long. He reached out and took out a piece of off-white felt paper from the drawer beside him. He wrote a few words on it with a pen, then waved his hand and waved a large seal upwards to cover it. He handed it to the disciple and said: "Take it to the Sword Hall and give it to Master Nephew Chu Lie of Poxie Pavilion."
"Disciple accepts the order."
The disciple reached out to take it and walked out quickly, leaving Yu Qi without mentioning it.
...
The New Year has come, and Lijia Village is a lot more lively, and every household has hung up red lanterns. Li Qingfeng took Li Qingqing and his party back to Lijiacun, where they were going to celebrate the New Year.
Li Qingfeng sat quietly on the carriage, watching the three children in front of him chattering non-stop, listening to the noise of the villagers outside the carriage, and unconsciously felt something new in his heart.
This is the first New Year that Li Qingfeng has ushered in since his rebirth. Counting his previous lives, this is also the first time that he has celebrated the New Year in countless years.
A few days ago, he deployed the "Five Elements Qi Gathering Formation" in Yuepan Valley, which increased the concentration of spiritual energy in the Li family compound by more than 50%. Everyone's cultivation speed has greatly accelerated. Even Li Qingdong, who has practiced for the shortest time, is vaguely on the edge of his Qi training period. Needless to say, Li Qingfeng's cultivation progress has increased rapidly with the support of spiritual stones, spiritual grains and spiritual pills.
However, when it comes to the use of elixirs, Li Qingfeng is more cautious. So far, he has only given Li Qingzhu and Li Yuming one Qi Gathering Pill each. This is because he is afraid that their foundations are unstable - Li Qingdong has not practiced Qi yet and has no need at all; while Li Qingqing relies on refining the spirit of the Red Jiao Master. Her cultivation has progressed quickly enough, and even Li Qingfeng sometimes has to restrict her to prevent her cultivation from progressing too fast and leaving her with an unstable foundation.
The so-called process of stabilizing the foundation is actually the process in which the monks allow the spiritual energy absorbed into the body to adapt to themselves. The first stage of human beings' journey to immortality is called the Qi-training period precisely because immortal cultivators need to absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world and condense it into their own bodies.
If a monk operates his skills normally and absorbs spiritual energy, that is the most stable way of cultivation, and basically there will be no instability in the foundation. And if a monk improves his cultivation by consuming elixirs, he will need to spend time to eliminate the elixirs and refine the newly absorbed spiritual power. This kind of spiritual power is unstable spiritual power and requires further condensation by monks.
There are many methods of condensation, which can be achieved through the accumulation of time, or by eating some spiritual objects that help stabilize cultivation. The most common method is to condense through the continuous use of spiritual power - this is why Li Qingfeng always competes with Li Qingqing, and also why Li Qingzhu and others compete. In his previous life, he had seen high-level monks who were fed with pills or various spiritual materials. Although such people seemed to have high cultivation levels, their own combat effectiveness and the possibility of advancement in the future were very high. Not as good as these monks who fight between life and death.
This is why there is an old saying that "heroes emerge from troubled times." Since ancient times, the monks who have made great achievements on the road to immortality, and finally transformed into gods and ascended to the same age as heaven and earth, have all come out of struggle. If they have talent, some luck, some opportunities, and they hone their character in life and death, they can naturally achieve great things.
Li Qingfeng's previous life can be regarded as the epitome of this sentence. Without the death of his Taoist companion and the disaster of annihilation, he might not have been able to complete the elixir theory in his life and enter the elixir formation stage.
Although it is still early to mention it now, Li Qingfeng is already planning in his mind how to train Li Qingzhu and others. It's not enough just to practice and spar at home. What he needs is not a waste with empty realms.
After he advanced to the third level of Qi training, he planned to go to Da'anfang City again. On the one hand, he would hand over the "Yellow Sand Golden Bowl Formation" to Shi Xin - during the period after setting up the Five Elements Qi Gathering Formation, He also finished drawing the formation flag of the "Yellow Sand and Golden Bowl Formation", and it has been tested and can operate normally. Its power is average, its spiritual power consumption speed is average, and its layout difficulty is not much. The only "binding" attribute, Li Qingfeng feels is not very powerful - his "Purple Cloud Breaking Demonic Eye" has the ability to break the formation. This binding formation is very powerful. It's easy for him to find flaws.
On the other hand, you can also inquire about where the monsters are, and sell the talisman you have refined. He has not refined it yet, but it will take some time before he reaches the third level of Qi training. During this period of time, he planned to refine some talismans and sell them, so as to bring back the skills of his previous life.
By then, Li Qingdong must have entered the stage of Qi training, and Li Qingfeng planned to take him with him, not Li Qingqing. After the third level of Qi training, he can perform a disguise technique for a long time, and then bring a new face like Li Qingdong. As long as he is careful, there will probably be no problems.
Of course, this is also because the Zhou family is not very powerful. If he had offended a force like the Banyueshan Shi Family, then there would be no way he would go to Da'anfang City in person.
