Xiao Yi looked at Zhang Jun in confusion when he heard this, and asked curiously: "Why did Daoyou say this? ”

Zhang Jun saw that Xiao Yi's face was sincere, and because he was a new inner disciple of the sect, he explained and sat down again, and said seriously: "Although this spirit fruit is also a product of the cultivation realm, it is often used to raise spirit beasts. It's just that this fruit is too hurtful, so it has not been widely planted by the major sects. ”

Hearing what Zhang Jun said, Xiao Yi was also very confused. He hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by Daoist friends hurting Tianlun?" At the beginning, I just took some spiritual fruits of Taoist friends to bury them, and ten years later, I saw a fruit forest. It seems like I didn't do anything, and I got so many benefits. ”

"What's going on?"

Xiao Yi plotted that he was plotted by two loose cultivators on his way home, and he lost two companions, and finally used a wooden box to accompany the funeral. Zhang Jun heard Xiao Yi's explanation, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"If it's really like what Daoyou said, it can be understood. Zengling fruit was quite popular in ancient times, and it was the favorite food of various demon beasts on the ancient battlefield. Many sects have tried to grow this thing, but as long as they are planted, even if they focus on the best leylines, it will not be effective in the end. Later, a demon clan successfully planted a spirit fruit after turning into a god, which was rumored to be a miracle for a while. It remained a secret until his fall. It's just that after he fell, the trees fell and scattered, and one of his servants was recruited by a certain gate faction. As a condition, he told a secret. This thing also has a name in the demon clan, called the human head fruit. It grows luxuriant only in cemeteries. Moreover, this cemetery must be located in a spiritual vein, and the most important thing is that this cemetery must be buried with cultivators or spirit beast corpses. If it's just a graveyard for ordinary people, it's useless. The corpses of cultivators and demon beasts on the ancient battlefield were all over the field, staining the battlefield with blood. The Soul Fruit is best suited to grow in this kind of blood-soaked land. However, a Qi cultivation period cultivator can also nourish the land for seven or eight years. As you said, two cultivators were buried at the same time, and it would last for twelve or thirteen years at most. Therefore, if you want to nourish the soil of a spiritual fruit, you must constantly provide the corpses of the cultivators. That's why I say it's hurtful. In order to supply the spirit beasts that he raised, he had to keep killing cultivators. Just because this method was too bloody, many sects would rather give up cultivating the Spirit Enhancement Fruit. Most of the Lingling Fruits circulating on the market today are collected in the wild. It is already an extremely rare thing to encounter the place where the cultivators are newly buried, and there is a spiritual fruit that has taken root here. It is precisely because it is precious and difficult to find, so many rats deliberately kill cultivators and use their corpses to grow spiritual fruits. What's more, there are people who buy the corpses of cultivators to nourish the land. Although several sects planted it, they claimed to the outside world that the monks of their sect had voluntarily buried their bones in the orchard after their deaths. ”

Zhang Jun saw that Xiao Yi's face was difficult, and then said: "Daoist friends don't have to be too entangled. After death, people return to heaven and earth, and if this bone and blood can nourish a piece of land, it is also a reward. There is nothing wrong with the Zengling Fruit, but the method of deliberately killing people and planting is despised. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yi silently drank a glass of water and wine. He didn't know if what he did was right, but he was very sad anyway.

"Daoyou said that I met a bad guy ten years ago, which reminded me of an old thing. The Beiji Cultivation True Realm has always been mixed, and there are scattered cultivators every year, and even disciples of the sect have disappeared for no reason after participating in Fang City. Ten years ago, this kind of thing suddenly decreased, and I think it was the group of people that Daoyou encountered. Daoist friends inadvertently eradicated the villain, which can be regarded as removing a harm for my cultivation realm. ”

Zhang Jun poured Xiao Yi a full wine glass as he spoke, and then raised the wine glass with both hands and said: "I admire Brother Xiao the most for a monk who punishes evil and promotes good, and Zhang Mou does it first to respect." While speaking, Zhang Jun drank the water and wine in the cup in one gulp, and this impassioned emotion also infected Xiao Yi.

"Daoyou said that the loose cultivator was attacked by someone, because I experienced it myself, so I can understand it. But Daoist friends said that the disciples of the Xiuzhen Sect would also disappear for no reason, which made me feel a little surprised. Even if ordinary casual cultivators want to kill people and oversell goods, they won't easily provoke sect disciples, could it be that these people are just new people in the Qi cultivation period just like me at the beginning?"

When Zhang Jun heard this, he first looked at Xiao Yi, and then smiled bitterly: "Everyone has it." During the Qi training period and the foundation building period, I heard that there is also a master predecessor in the Dan period. However, I just heard from Daoist friends that the interception and killing of you was only a casual cultivation in the middle stage of Qi cultivation, and it seems that it was only a part of the murder in the past. You and I still need to be careful not to be easily remembered. ”

Xiao Yi nodded when he heard this, there are still many people who cultivate true qi every year, and he just got rid of two evil people with ill intentions. This does not mean that all the scum in the cultivation realm has been eliminated.

The two talked a lot about the cultivation realm again, until the luminous stones lit up in the market, and then the two went back to their residences. Agree to act together on the second day.

Xiao Yat returned to his room and sat quietly on the bed. The experience of this day made his heart very entangled. Although he didn't take the Spirit Enhancement Fruit, this practice of nourishing the land with cultivators still made him uncomfortable. He suddenly remembered a storage bag sold today, which was the one that contained the bodies of Wu Lian and the others, and thought that others would use the bag to hold food in the future, and his stomach was churning.

Xiao Yi took out a jade talisman and threw all his thoughts into it, and now only the description of the jade beard could make him forget many troubles.

The content of this jade talisman is very complicated, and most of the things are briefly mentioned, but the amount of information is very huge. Xiao Yat has been studying the accounts in it whenever he has time these days, and he has only read most of them so far. He couldn't imagine how the other party could record so many things in such a short time. But what is certain is that there is no such thing as a cheat book for exercises. Because the jade beard stated at the beginning that once Xiao Yi learns his own exercises, it will inevitably cause trouble. For the sake of safety, Jade Beard deliberately avoided the records associated with it. However, the other party still described the characteristics and loopholes of some exercises, which made Xiao Yi more handy in future battles.

Jade Whisker's description of the fire wood is more detailed, which should be a deliberately strengthened description for Xiao Yat to lift the ban in the future.

This fire tree is originally a different species of heaven and earth, with a huge root system, and it goes straight to the center of the earth to absorb the fire veins. Most people will treat it as a fire attribute material. It's just that this core is rarely obtained, and Jade Beard also found a manuscript of a fantasy chronicle in the ancient ruins. It is said that the fire and wood are condensed with the same flame and earth, and the reason why it has not been incinerated is due to the core of the tree. The author of the manuscript believes that the core of the tree is a kind of extreme cold that can withstand the high temperatures of the earth fire all year round. If you can refine it, you will definitely get a good ice attribute material.

The lack of yin contained in this extreme yang is also one of the laws of the cycle of heaven and earth, and it can only be that when the monk wrote the manuscript, there was no physical object to corroborate, and everything could only be speculation. However, Jade Beard still agrees with this assumption. He also believed that the core of the tree was the essence of extreme cold, so he suggested that Xiao Yat refine the magic weapon of the ice attribute to maximize its potential.

It's just a pity that the age of this fire tree is too short, and it was only seven or eight thousand years old when Jade Beard discovered it, and now it is also a young tree less than 10,000 years old. It's just that if you keep it for a few more years, I'm afraid that this Huozhu wood will have nothing to do with Xiao Yi.

Jade beard also mentioned the growth of herbs such as thread grass, this kind of herbs bred by heaven and earth will be occasionally found in a place that is not disturbed, because the mature grass of more than ten years old will have medicinal effects, so few people will keep it for tens of millions of years. If it weren't for the deliberate closure of the mountain by the big sect, I'm afraid that the hundred-year-old medicine is also very rare. Therefore, cultivators often venture to inaccessible areas just to find elixirs. But I don't know that the inaccessibility does not mean that the demon clan is not haunted by the local area. deliberately told Xiao Yi to be cautious and not to waste his life for petty profits. This night, Xiao Yi finished reading the rest of the content, and at the end of the day, Jade Beard said that he could have stayed a little longer, but he used all his energy to write about the jade talisman, so the time was shortened. He has no regrets, and it is the greatest happiness for him to be able to leave some more experience and not let himself live a little time.

Xiao Yat read this, and his heart fluctuated, there may be no right or wrong in the world, only whether to do it or not. Don't hesitate to do what you think you should do, this may be a trade-off between the length and value of life.

Unconsciously, the sky outside the window shows the white belly of the fish, and a new day heralds a new beginning. Xiao Yi stood by the window, and although a little light film in front of the window cut off the observation of the interior from outside, it did not affect his outlook at all. The stalls downstairs are still densely packed along the street, and many monks wander around the night to pick out their favorites. Vaguely, Xiao Yiping had an illusion, as if he saw a group of ants busily lined up, running non-stop in order to survive.

In a trance for a while, Xiao Yi suddenly felt that a liquid spiritual power began to gather in the dantian. The original golden crystal was gradually enveloped and expanded by the liquid spiritual power, and compared to the original Qi Pill concentration, it was simply a difference between heaven and earth. Although it is still a small diameter of a small size, this difference can be clearly felt by Xiao Yi.

He sat back on the bed in a hurry, and if he didn't stabilize his state of mind at this time, he was afraid that he would miss it, and it would take longer to repair his state of mind in the future.

From the beginning of the day, Xiao Yat sat quietly until the time passed noon, then he withdrew his thoughts and dispersed his spiritual power. When he opened his eyes again, Xiao Yi's eyes emitted a faint aura, and the whole person was in a much more energetic state.

went out to look for Zhang Jun and learned that the other party had gone to the auction house early in the morning. Xiao Yi hurriedly rushed to the auction house, the auction had been going on for two hours at this time, and it was about to come to an end.

After delivering the spirit stone, Xiao Yi entered the auction house, but after some searching, he didn't see Zhang Jun. He had no choice but to search through the crowd while checking the roster of auction items.

Soon the last item of the auction was also successfully traded, and the host announced the end of the auction. Xiao Yi, who worked in vain, could only walk out of the auction house with the flow of people, he knew that it was impossible for Zhang Jun not to wait for him, it should be that today's realm suddenly had a sense of time, and he delayed time. Just after the foundation was built, he advanced to the second-layer realm of foundation building. This was Xiao Yi's unpredictable speed, and he wondered if he was dreaming.

Now that the auction is over, many monks are preparing to leave, and of course some monks stay in the market, intending to sell some things at the end to maximize the benefits of the stalls.

Xiao Yi walked all the way down, and only spent the price of ten medium-grade spirit stones to buy the materials that he needed thirty medium-grade spirit stones to buy earlier. Jing Xi had never used the top-grade spirit stone that she had given herself, after all, this time she spent money only to collect materials, and there was no specific goal, so Xiao Yi didn't need to waste the top-grade spirit stone in vain.

The time was close to dusk, and Xiao Yi walked out of the ban in Danyangfang City. If Zhang Jun can't be found, then he has to go back to the valley as soon as possible to check the movement of his fire tree.

As soon as he summoned the flying boat, a middle-aged monk in white robe walked over. A cluster of bamboo embroidered with silver threads on the placket attracted Xiao Yat's attention. This is almost exactly the same as Zhang Jun's original ornament, he looked at the other party suspiciously, but saw the middle-aged monk smiling, familiar with himself greeting.

"Fellow Daoist, yesterday I saw you drinking with my inner disciples, I don't know if you are relatives or friends?" Yesterday, I saw Taoist friends drinking with my junior brother, so I came over to say hello. Are you leaving? Didn't my junior brother go with you?"

Xiao Yi nodded and clenched his fists and said, "In Xia Heyi, this time I just met with a disciple of your sect. There were some intersections during the initial Qi training period, and today I originally wanted to participate in the auction together, but I didn't want to oversleep, and when I came out again, I naturally couldn't find it. So I just walked around the market with a certain person, and I was ready to leave. ”

The middle-aged monk was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then used his divine sense to probe Xiao Yi's cultivation, and then smiled awkwardly: "It turns out that Daoyou is also a monk in the foundation building period! Since you and Senior Brother Zhang are old acquaintances, you might as well go to Huaxi Town with me if it is convenient." The disciples I sent had to stop and wait in Huaxi Town, and since I didn't meet them today, it wouldn't be bad for half a day. ”

As he spoke, the man beckoned a flying boat and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please. Xiao Yi didn't know each other well, so he waved his hand to thank him for the invitation, and he also beckoned Feizhou and said respectfully: "Thank you for your kindness, but I have an appointment with a family elder, and it is inconvenient to stay outside for too long." Please also ask Liao Daoyou to explain it for me when he meets Brother Zhang. He and a certain self-deserving person should come to the door to make amends, and say goodbye. ”

Xiao Yi bowed deeply, and then boarded the flying boat and flew towards the northwest. Liao Qingping saw that the other party refused, although his face did not change, his smile was obviously stiffened a lot.

Xiao Yat sat in the cabin, meditating quietly. It is certainly inappropriate not to find Zhang Jun, but if he went with Liao Qingping just now, it may not be much better. He and Zhang Jun were originally friends in Pingshui, so why did Liao Qingping think that he was close to him? If it was that kind of close friendship, how could Zhang Jun not leave with him? Even if he didn't go to the auction together, at least Zhang Jun wouldn't leave quietly after it was over!

The flying boat had been moving forward for about half an hour, and a dark cloud appeared in front of it. This flying boat comes with its own protective barrier, and it is not a special thing to travel through the dark clouds. It's just that a white cloud passing through the dark clouds is more eye-catching, but fortunately, the height of his flying boat is in the middle of the dark clouds, and the dark clouds below are thick enough to block the traces of white clouds.

Hail kept falling on the forbidden light curtain of the flying boat, and the lightning flashed around, and there were bursts of thunder from time to time. At first, Xiao Yi didn't feel anything unusual, but after another half an hour, the momentum of this dark cloud did not weaken at all, what kind of cloud did he enter?

He walked to the deck, looked around, and saw that the clouds were thick and he couldn't find the path, so he steered the flying boat and began to climb. After another cup of tea, there was still a dark cloud all around, and Xiao Yi had already sensed that something was wrong at this time.

Although his flying boat is just an ordinary magic weapon, its flight speed is not fast. But even so, no matter how thick the clouds are, it is time to climb up to the clouds at this time. What's more, ordinary dark clouds have a limited height, and are usually much lower than high-altitude drift clouds. Why are the clouds so thick today?

Xiao Yi carefully felt the surrounding environment, and this investigation made his face change suddenly. The flying boat, which was supposed to move forward smoothly and ascend, actually stopped in place at this time. Although the sound of dark clouds and wind around people gave people the feeling of moving forward at great speed, Xiao Yi's clothes did not flutter normally. In other words, at this time, Xiao Yat has been stopping in the same place. This is unconscionable, and the only possibility is that there is some kind of ban.

This was the way Xiao Yat had come before, so there shouldn't be any strong taboos along the way. Moreover, the possibility of one's height encountering a ban is even more minimal. Their own prohibitions are generally three or five zhang is the limit, and they will only be touched when they fly close to the ground. If it is a forbidden place, it is necessary to restrict the height of hundreds of feet, isn't it equivalent to reminding the other party that there is a forbidden circle under him?

Xiao Yi hurriedly urged the flying boat to land, while taking out a formation plate from the storage bag and arranging it on the flying boat. With his cultivation, he naturally couldn't come up with any powerful attack arrays, but in the early years, he still learned a lot of magic array spells from Jingxi in the desert island ruins. After all, he was only a minor monk in the Qi cultivation period at the beginning, and he could use the phantom array to delay the other party, and it was not his job to kill or flee when Jingxi came out, all he could do was buy some time. Now that Xiao Yi has advanced to the second-layer realm of foundation building, the power of this phantom array is much stronger than before.

Xiao Yi arranged the phantom array, and the flying boat was still hovering in the dark clouds at this time. It seems that his attempt to control the flying boat to land has no effect, and the lightning and thunder around him continue, and it seems that it is also a kind of phantom array.

He walked to the bow of the ship and threw a ball of spiritual fire forward, a thumb-sized ball of light that rushed headlong into the mist and never made a sound again. There was no expected crackling sound, and the spiritual power fire ball obviously did not come into contact with the water vapor cloud, which felt like it was hitting the air, and the fire ball flew straight out.

"Senior Brother Yu, come here! This kid should have noticed that something was wrong. If you two don't hurry up, I'm afraid he'll run away!"
