Jining was very grateful for hearing so many secrets about the Immortal Abandoned Land from Tong Feng. He remembered that Tong Feng came to Miaoshanfang City to buy medicinal materials for his family to make elixirs, and he remembered that he had some unknown elixirs in his storage bag. So he said to Tong Feng: "Jimou also has some spiritual herbs, let's see if they match!" Thinking that it was inconvenient for him to use the storage bag, he asked them to go to his house to take a look. . .
Tong Feng's grandparents were very excited after hearing this, and they readily agreed and went to Jining's house. They found it hard to believe that Jining could actually afford to rent this house. Most casual cultivators were very poor and would not be willing to spend ten spiritual stones to rent such a house. . .
Jining took them to the main hall and went to the side room to take out some of the medicinal materials in the storage bag. After seeing these medicinal materials, Tong Feng was shocked and said: "Brother Ji, these elixirs of yours are of very good quality and can be used for the foundation-building period. There are a few here that are very important to my granddaughter, so I won't be polite." "He was a bit polite to Jining in his words and deeds. Then he selected a few plants, and painfully took out a few low-grade spiritual stones and gave them to Jining.
Jining also felt that although Tong Feng was from a family that cultivated immortals, he didn't seem to have much money. After politely declining the spiritual stone, he said that these few spiritual herbs were brought to Miaoshanfang City as a token of gratitude. Tong Feng also thanked him for a while, and finally he took out an ordinary book and said: "This Baicao Jing was obtained when I was young and went out. I found that there are many spiritual herbs and elixirs recorded in it, so I took it as a reward for these few spiritual herbs. "
Jining couldn't resist, so he accepted it, and then watched them leave. Jining remembered that when he left Zuixian Tower just now, he paid for ten taels of gold. I felt a little dumbfounded in my heart. These drinks and food would not cost a single tael of silver in the mortal world. Thinking of this, I plan to go to the square to buy a medicine cauldron and refine some Bigu Pills myself.
From then on, Jining basically meditated and practiced. God rewarded his hard work. He practiced day and night, and his cultivation at the eighth level of the Immortality Art became more and more stable. Jining felt that the clouds of spiritual power in his Dantian had become much denser, and the spiritual consciousness in his sea of consciousness had also become much stronger.
After half a year, he found that there was no progress at the eighth level of Qi refining. Jining thought of the Taiyi Hunyuan Gong, which he had been stagnant in practicing, and started practicing Taiyi Hunyuan Gong. It consumes a lot of energy, and the consumed spiritual energy is difficult to recover in a mortal place.
Although the aura of Miaoshanfang City is very meager now, for a mundane place where the aura of heaven and earth was completely lacking in the past, this is the blessed land of Jining. So Jining began to practice Taiyi Hunyuan Gong in addition to practicing the Immortality Technique.
He has been practicing immortality for a long time, but in the blink of an eye, he has been in Miaoshanfang City for almost three years. Jining's training in Miaoshanfang City was just like when he looked up to the sky, but Jining still looked as thin as before, but his movements seemed to contain infinite power in his body.
In the side room of Ding Shisan's house, Jining closed his eyes and waved the spell, and a wind blade condensed with spiritual energy appeared on his chest. In the blink of an eye, the wind blade attacked Jining's own arm. With a "click", the extremely sharp wind blade shattered into pieces as if it had hit a hard object.
Jining opened his eyes and took a long breath with a smile on his face. He secretly thought in his heart that Taiyi Hunyuan Gong is really mysterious. After he has been tempering his body with spiritual power for the past three years, Taiyi Hunyuan Gong is the second level of body training. The tempered bones were finally completed. Now I can resist ordinary sword attacks with my body. I finally have a certain ability to protect myself. In addition, when I used Taiyi Hunyuan Gong to temper my body, I found that the spiritual power in my body was somewhat purer after being recovered from spiritual depletion countless times.
Just a month ago, Jining Fuzhi's spiritual breakthrough reached the ninth level of Qi refining. He found that Miaoshanfang City's thin spiritual power made him feel that his progress was very slow if he continued to practice after reaching the ninth level of Qi refining.
Only then did he realize why most of the people in the city were low-level monks, so after practicing in Jining, he also began to communicate and discuss with fellow practitioners, which benefited him a lot. Jinan closed his eyes quietly, and the thoughts in his mind went back to more than ten years ago, thinking that after more than ten years of experience, a desperate little Taoist priest had transformed from an ant that was casually slaughtered in the eyes of those in the world to a practitioner now. Like a dream!
At this moment, a transmission note flew outside the door, and Jining knew that a middle-aged cultivator named Cao Changqing in the next room was visiting. This cultivator himself said that he entered the ranks of cultivators by chance when he was young, but he was a casual cultivator with few resources for cultivation, and he only reached the peak of Qi cultivation in middle age. However, although Cao Changqing is in the middle stage of Qi refining, he is quite proficient in making talismans. He sells some low-level talismans in Miaoshanfang City and is considered a wealthy person among casual cultivators.
During a chat with Jining last year, he mentioned some common sense about refining weapons and talismans. Jining thanked him and gave him a few remaining spiritual herbs in his original storage bag, allowing him to break through to the late stage of Qi refining in one fell swoop. Therefore, he and Jining gradually became close friends.
Jining opened the ban and saw a middle-aged monk with a medium build and a thin face with a white green beard. This middle-aged monk was Cao Changqing. Seeing Cao Changqing walking into the courtyard with two immortal cultivators of similar age to him, I felt a little strange. Jining stood up and welcomed them into the main hall.
After sitting down, Cao Changqing chuckled and said mysteriously: "These two are my good friends Chang Antai and Yan Donghua. Like Taoist Fellow Ji, they are masters of the eighth level of Qi refining. A few days ago, a fellow Taoist from other places traded talismans with me. , a dilapidated map was given to me with the transaction. Later, I carefully checked this dilapidated map with the map of the Immortal Abandoned Land, and it reminded me of a previous legend. It seems that the dilapidated map should mark Li Miao Mountain. There is an ancestral cave in a wild land not far from Fangshi. Mr. Cao doesn’t have many friends in Fangshi, Miaoshan, so I thought of you all.”
It turned out that Jining discovered that in Miaoshanfang City, except for the foundation-building masters who managed Fang City from here, most of the others were at the sixth or seventh level of Qi Refining. He didn't want to be too ostentatious in Fang City, so he used the Hidden Spirit Art to control his spiritual power. At the early stage of the eighth level of Qi refining.
Then, let’s go on to say that everyone should know our legendary Nascent Soul Stage monk Senior Qu Tao from Dongzhou. At that time, he obtained a secret treasure in a secret place in the Central Continent, but the sect monks in the Central Continent were so arrogant that they tried to rob it.
How could Senior Qu, who was in the Nascent Soul stage, be willing to give in? In the end, they fought hard and killed several masters from the other side. In the end, the masters in the Transformation stage came out and Senior Qu was killed. The monk named Yan Donghua then asked: "This immortal cave is difficult for Senior Shiqu to access?"
Cao Changqing laughed and said: "How dare you and me, monks in the Qi Refining Stage, think about the cave of the Yuanying Stage monks? A simple ban can make us disappear! According to legend, this cave should be one of the sects of Senior Qu. The cave of the early Jindan monks. After Senior Qu was killed, the group of monks from the Central Continent found Senior Qu's sect to exterminate the sect. At that time, a small number of high-level monks used secret techniques to escape, including this early Jindan monk. In the cave, this Golden Core monk actually knew an escape technique, which allowed him to get rid of a Nascent Soul monk who was chasing him. However, this escape technique was very harmful to the body. When escaping, the Golden Core monk actually encountered an outside experimenter. Lian’s personal disciple asked this disciple to help him find the elixir for recovery, but this disciple didn’t know why something happened later, and the secret was spread for no reason.”
Cao Changqing went on to say that this Jindan monk was in a temporary residence after being seriously injured and there should be no risk. But it also said that maybe this cave had been discovered by others a long time ago, and our trip would have been in vain. His idea is to try his luck, and then I will wait and see if everyone is interested in cultivating immortality. After hearing this, Chang Antai and Yan Donghua said eagerly: "You and I have reached the eighth level of the Qi Refining Stage. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in Miaoshanfang City has made it difficult for us to advance. If we can get the opportunity, it will be the best. If not, it will be ok." It’s just a trip in vain!”
After hearing this, Jining thought of Brother Li Xiao. If he had not obtained the mantle of Brother Li Xiao, he might still be at the fourth or fifth level of Qi training.
So I asked how to distribute the treasures if they were found in the cave. Cao Changqing said that if it is a skill, everyone should copy it. If the treasure is enough for everyone to share equally, then it will be divided equally. If it is not enough for everyone to share equally, the treasure will be auctioned into spiritual stones and everyone will share it equally.
Everyone agreed with this distribution method, so they all agreed. Then Cao Changqing said that if you follow the route marked on the map, it will take about two months to go back and forth quickly. If there are some troubles in the middle, it may take about three months. He asked everyone to be prepared and to keep this expedition confidential. At that time, everyone split up and met half a month later at Panshi Mountain, a remote place in the Qinling Mountains.
After seeing everyone off, Jining walked into the room. I was thinking about how to prepare. Regardless of the restrictions on this cave, as a young bird who has never participated in such an adventure, preserving my own life is the most important thing. So he looked through his protective equipment and saw the seven-star disk, but there was a wry smile on his face. Such a treasure must not appear in front of other monks, otherwise with his current cultivation level, he would never be able to keep this treasure.
He found that in addition to the magic weapon of the Seven Star Pan, the shield and broken spear left by Brother Li Xiao were all magic weapons that he could not use now. He has no self-defense equipment, and his attack equipment is the sleeve arrow that can be used against ordinary people in the world.
So I decided to go to the market to see if I could find something suitable.
Jining stepped into the square and found that there were many more casual cultivators setting up stalls in the square today, and there were also many more monks watching from the stalls. Jining felt a little strange. He usually visited the market occasionally, but rarely like today. Therefore, the square was full of people and bustle today, so I decided to look around to see if there was any suitable treasure. So I started shopping at the stalls in the square. I stopped and looked around along the way. I was quite curious when I saw the weird items on the stalls, but they were all items I didn't need, so I could only watch the excitement. At this time, I actually saw Cao Changqing, who was also looking around at the stall. But when Jining saw him, he also saw Jining walking over.
