Chapter 61: Emerald Valley
Luo Ning smiled awkwardly and said, "I did go to Qingyun Inn yesterday, but it wasn't check-in, it was something else." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" cautiously looked around, wondering if the dangerous blackfriar he had met yesterday was also nearby.
"I see. Qi Jingxun was slightly disappointed, "Under the surname Qi, I don't know what to call your friend?"
Luo Ning said cautiously: "My surname is Luo." ”
Immortal cultivators have always paid attention to **, unless they are from the same family sect or people who are close to each other, everyone has always been alone, and they tacitly agree not to listen to each other.
Qi Jingxun originally thought that he was living in the same inn with Luo Ningxin, and seeing that Luo Ningxin was not old and handsome, he intuitively thought that she did not look like a bad person, so he gave birth to a heart of closeness. Now that he knows that Luo Ningxin does not live with him, it is naturally difficult to ask any more.
At this time, there were many Qi refining period monks in the teahouse, some were exchanging experiences, some were talking about the Huayang Sect entrance competition that would be held soon, and some were ganging up and planning to go to the Emerald Valley to hunt demon beasts. Qi Jingxun seemed to be very interested in going to the Emerald Valley to hunt beasts, and when he saw someone talking about it, he leaned over to participate in the discussion.
For the Jade Valley, Luo Ningxin had learned a little about it in the jade slips such as "Jin Kingdom Cultivating Immortal World" in the past. Now listening to these monks, Luo Ningxin added a lot of information that he didn't know before.
This Emerald Valley is in the Huayang Mountain Range, not too far from Huayang City. If it was a Qi refining period monk riding a horse, it would take more than twenty days to fight a round trip. In addition, it is about two months to go back and forth to hunt beasts and find spirit grass refining materials.
It is said that the demon beasts in the Emerald Valley were bred by the superb spiritual veins of the Huayang Mountain Range, and they were within the territory of the Huayang Sect's power, so they should have been the private property of the Huayang Sect, and other monks were not allowed to enter. However, the reproduction ability of demon beasts is very strong, and with the number of demon beasts surging, it is almost unimaginable for Huayang Sect to control all the demon beasts in the Emerald Valley.
So Huayang Sect came up with a solution. They used the natural spiritual veins of the Huayang Sect to place an iron bucket-like ban around the Emerald Valley, and the demon beasts inside could not easily get out, and the monks outside could not enter without permission. At the same time, Huayang Sect welcomed the monks of the Quartet to enter the valley to hunt beasts, but every Qi refining period monk who entered had to pay eighty spirit stones, and the foundation building period monk had to pay four hundred spirit stones.
In this way, the monks' beast-hunting behavior can not only help Huayang Sect control the number of demon beasts in the Jade Valley, but also Huayang Sect can obtain a large amount of income from it.
The Emerald Valley is divided into the inner valley and the outer valley. The demon beasts in the outer valley are mostly of the first order, which is equivalent to the monks of the human Qi refining period, and the demon beasts of the inner valley are mostly of the second order, third order, and fourth order, corresponding to the monks of the early stage, middle stage of foundation building, and late stage of foundation building of human beings. As for the fifth-order demon beasts corresponding to the cultivators of the human Yu Dan period, they had already been killed by the powerful predecessors of the Huayang Sect, and there was no one in the Jade Valley.
The monster is a treasure. Living demon beasts can be sold to other monks to make spiritual pets; dead demon beasts can make talismans and alchemy pills and sell them to immortal food shops; leather armor and bones can be refined; and even demon beasts above the second order will refine demon pills in their bodies, which is a good material for refining pills.
As long as the monks enter the Emerald Valley to hunt beasts and come out alive, almost every one of them can earn back the cost of entering the valley, and they don't have to worry about spirit stones in the next few months.
For a beast-hunting holy place like the Emerald Valley, it is natural that countless monks flock to it. Even many monks came to Huayang City from thousands of miles and lived for decades, and they made a living by hunting demon beasts in the Emerald Valley.
But hunting monsters is not so easy. Although the demon beasts in the outer valley of the Emerald Valley are basically first-order, their cultivation is high and low after all. If a twelfth-tier monk faced a first-order cedar marten alone, it would naturally be handy. But if you encounter a group of first-order silver wolves, you will only have the fate of being buried in the belly of the beast.
Therefore, if you want to go to the Emerald Valley to hunt beasts, it is very necessary to go in a team. But teaming up meant teaming up with other monks, and there was little trust between them. Then carefully choosing the object of the team is the most important thing in this trip.
If the teammates are well chosen, they can help each other and fight against the monsters together, and in the end, not only will there be more loot, but also fair distribution and good together, and everyone will be happy. If the teammates are not well chosen, then the distribution of not much results is secondary, if someone takes advantage of the opportunity to kill and seize the treasure, it will be unlucky!
Therefore, most of the monks who intend to go to the Emerald Valley to hunt beasts will choose to form a team with monks who are close to each other, or choose several squads with a good reputation in the beast hunting army to join in.
Luo Ning heard that there were many monks in this teahouse, and he planned to go to the Emerald Valley before the Huayang Sect ring, and buy some magic weapons, talismans, and pills in exchange for the spirit stones. But these people are all competitors in the ring in the future, and if they choose their teammates carelessly, they may be killed by their teammates in the Emerald Valley and get rid of an invisible competitor. So everyone is hesitating and waiting.
Luo Ningxin was not short of spirit stones, and he didn't have a monk who knew and trusted him, so he would definitely not participate in the Emerald Valley Beast Hunting at this time. She picked up some information and left the teahouse. And when she left, Qi Jingxun hadn't left yet, and was still in the small circle discussing the trip to the Emerald Valley, looking eager to try and unable to make up her mind.
Because there was enough qi gathering for Luo Ningxin to cultivate, Luo Ningxin suspended his attempt to use the mutated jade spirit grass to refine the pill. In addition to making talismans and exchanging spirit stones every day, she meditates and cultivates, and occasionally goes to the shops to see if there are any magic weapons that suit her.
In the anxious and expectant waiting, the competition in the ring of Huayang Sect's open recruitment of disciples finally came.
The competition in the ring is a "fighting platform" used in Huayang City to deal with the monks' personal grievances. It's just that there is only one fighting platform in normal times, and now Huayang Sect has set up four temporary fighting platforms, a total of five.
These five fighting platforms are all equipped with powerful magic circles. When the monk was fighting in it, he let the spells fill the sky and the magic weapons fly, and their power could not pass through the magic circle and hurt the onlookers outside. And in the process of fighting, if someone says the word "admit defeat", it will be automatically teleported out of the circle. In the battle without eyes of spells, the life safety of the monk was guaranteed to a certain extent.
Since there is a magic circle, it must be supported by a large number of spirit stones. Therefore, the Huayang Sect asked the monks who participated in the competition to pay the registration fee. The registration fee for each person is fifty spirit stones, and if you can pass the competition and become a disciple of Huayang Sect, these fifty spirit stones will be refunded.
