Chapter 28 Ambition
Mei Lingyun said: "Many families sell their surplus territory here. ”
"Because a lot of output is limited by the five major schools, it can't be sold at will. So what should these families do if they want to earn spirit stones? I can only secretly use this black market fair to sell my own output here. ”
Lu Yao said: "Doesn't that mean that the management of the cultivation realm by the five major sects is no longer controllable? Who built this black market? ”
Mei Lingyun said: "This black market seems to have been established by the Loose Cultivation Alliance. Of course, not only the Scattered Cultivation Alliance, but in fact, secretly, the five major sects and some big families are involved. This black market fair, held from time to time, is divided into various levels. I've heard that there is also an incarnation-level trade fair. ”
"The person in charge of the fair is the six elders. Each of these six elders represents a different force. Among them, the Great Elder has always been a member of the Scattered Cultivation Alliance. The rest is not necessarily the same. ”
Lu Yao asked a little strangely: "Isn't this to hide from the five major sects?" How can there still be people from the five major sects involved? ”
Mei Lingyun said: "The elders of the five major sects also have their own families, and they also need resources to develop, and they also need to earn spirit stones for cultivation. Therefore, they sent agents to get such a black market out with the Scattered Cultivation Alliance. This is a secret that everyone knows in the cultivation world, and among the five major sects, the conservative side has always wanted to end this black market. But this black market has been in shape for a long time and has a certain scale. There are too many forces involved behind the black market, so it can't be easily destroyed, and since it can't be destroyed, it can only be tacitly acquiesced. ”
"Now, it is becoming more and more standardized, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger, from the resources needed by Qi cultivation disciples to the resources needed by the great power of the incarnation stage. It can be said that the trade fair has already involved the interests of the entire cultivation world. So, it's also thriving. ”
"In all fairness, I think it's a good thing to have such a black market fair. How good it is that all the monks communicate with each other, and they can obtain their own cultivation resources without using force. For example, if you are a Dan cultivator, you can refine the best pills. However, you need a lot of alchemy materials. The combat power of Dan Xiu is generally very low, and we still need sword cultivation to deal with those spirit beasts. Our sword cultivator defeated the spirit beasts and collected all kinds of genius earth treasures. However, we don't know how to refine pills or weapons, so we will hand over the genius earth treasure to you, and you will refine it into what our sword cultivators need. ”
"Wouldn't it be nice to communicate with each other this way?"
"It's the same with families and sects. Some specialties are all kinds of ores, some specialties are spiritual tea, some specialties are elixirs, and some specialties are elixirs, all kinds of things, everyone sells the excess resources through these fairs, in exchange for useful and urgently needed resources, isn't it better to cultivate? ”
It was the first time Lu Yao heard Mei Lingyun say such a thing. She has always felt that Mei Lingyun is a martial arts idiot who focuses on cultivation, how did she know that there are still such hills and ravines in his chest?
Lu Yao said, "Haven't you been practicing hard all along? How do you know this? Did your master teach you? ”
Mei Lingyun smiled and said, "My master is the one who has been focusing on cultivation, I'm not. The master was born in the cultivation realm, his parents are monks, he has a talent for cultivation since he was a child, and after entering the Shangqing faction, he has been smooth sailing, and his cultivation is getting stronger and stronger, his family was originally a medium family, and now he is also among the ranks of the big family. ”
"But I'm different. I was born as a mortal, I came to the cultivation realm, I had nothing, I struggled alone, I went through hardships and obstacles, and I went to many places in the cultivation realm in order to do tasks. I have some friends in the Shangqing faction. In the Guqiu faction, there are friends in the Tianyuan faction. There are even some small sects, scattered friends. Let's team up together to do tasks and earn spirit stones. Therefore, I have seen more warmth and warmth than the master. ”
"Therefore, my Dao heart is sharpened very strongly, once I reach the Dan stage, the progress of those children of the family will be slower and slower, but I am different. My progress in the early stage was very slow, and the higher my cultivation, the faster my progress became. ”
Lu Yao admired it very much.
At this time, Feng Qingliang, who had rarely spoken, said: "It is precisely because of this that Senior Brother Mei has a very high status among the disciples in the sect. The sect also attaches great importance to him, and they all think that he will have a great future in the future. It is normal to become the head of the Shangqing faction in the future. ”
Lu Yao couldn't help but exclaim: "Become the head? How is this possible? ”
Feng Qingliang said: "How is it impossible? The current head of Ziya Zhenren has been in the head position for more than 2,000 years. As long as he finds a suitable successor, he will dismiss the position of head of the sect and become one of the elders, and even attack the position of the great elder. ”
Lu Yao's eyes widened: "Attacking the position of the Great Elder?" Is it to cross the catastrophe? ”
The monk crossed the catastrophe, it was a ghost gate, and the success rate was really one in a hundred. Will the boss really take the risk of impacting the catastrophe period?
Mei Lingyun said, "Yao'er, the time you have entered the cultivation realm is still too short. So, a lot of things, you don't understand. The head has been in power for more than 2,000 years. He has long since reached the end of his life, and if he does not impact the Tribulation Period, I am afraid that he will also die of old age. Rather than that, it's better to play a game, maybe there is still a way to live. ”
It's true. Lu Yao asked, "However, now there are one hundred and nine true disciples in our sect. According to the rules of the Shangqing faction, the head of the sect and the elders are all produced among the disciples of Yuanying. If the head of the sect wants to train a successor, he should choose among the one hundred and nine Yuanying monks? How could you find Lingyun who is still in the Dan period? ”
Mei Lingyun smiled and said, "Theoretically, that's the case. But the reality is different. Our Shangqing Sect now has one hundred and nine Yuanying disciples. However, more than half of them were promoted to Yuanying a long time ago. They have never become incarnate monks, and it is unlikely that they will become incarnate monks in the future, even if they have barely become incarnate monks, they have no sharpness, or their combat power is not strong enough, so how can they take on the position of the leader. At most, you can only be an elder. ”
"There are also many Dan cultivators, array cultivators, instrument cultivators, etc. like your senior brother Shi Chunhui. Their cultivation is getting higher and higher, but they are mainly studying the Dan Dao, the Instrument Dao, the Array Dao, and so on. In the future, he will become an incarnate monk and an elder. I don't have the vision and courage to take on the big responsibility. ”
In this way, there are fewer and fewer candidates for the head, and it is not nothing, but the head is not satisfied with just a few candidates. He wanted to have more candidates. In this way, we can choose people who are more suitable to lead the Shangqing faction. ”
"I'm just one of the candidates. Everything depends on whether I can become a Yuanying Monk. After becoming a Yuanying monk, you can really become a candidate for the head of the family. Then, it was to compete with the other Yuanying monks for the position of the head of the house. Then you need to make meritorious contributions to the sect, and there must be family support behind you. ”
"I don't worry about making meritorious contributions to the sect. Since I have cultivated the truth, I have made great and small contributions to the sect, and I may not have as many ordinary Yuanying disciples as I am. In the future, after my cultivation is more refined, I will be able to make even greater contributions to the sect. However, for the support of the family behind me, this is really my weak link. Originally, I planned to choose a family to join. So, for a while, I had a good relationship with a lot of my family. ”
"Among them are big families like the Lie family and the Qian family. Not only the demon cultivation family, but also the human cultivation family are all within my consideration. These families are also courting me. ”
"However, now it is different, we have our own family, and the family I support behind me is the Yu country where I was born. It's my future wife's family. Yu Guo family. It's going to be a family that I've built myself. will be my strongest support. ”
Lu Yao was very excited and said: "Lingyun, don't worry, we must work hard, we must let the Yu family grow up quickly, and we will definitely be able to become your strongest support." ”
Mei Lingyun looked at this little girl who had only been in the cultivation realm for a few years, and now she had done a great career in the cultivation realm, and she was also proud of her in her heart. In the future, this little girl will be her partner, she will accompany her through this lonely and boring life of cultivation, and she will become a witness to her ascension, and I believe that with her company in the future, life will be more exciting.
Feng Qingliang said: "We, the old disciples of the sect, also hope that in the future, Senior Brother Mei can become the head of the sect. At that time, I believe that Senior Brother Mei will definitely be an outstanding leader and will definitely be able to lead the Shangqing faction to glory again. ”
Mei Lingyun nodded at the wind coolness.
Lu Yao was excited, and suddenly remembered something: "Ling Yun, if you hadn't met me, did you plan to be the son-in-law of the Lie family, marry Lie Ziqing, and let the Lie family support you?" ”
Mei Lingyun's expression, like that of the plum tree and the snow, suddenly wilted, this little girl, can you not open which pot and which pot?
When Lu Yao saw Mei Lingyun's expression, he couldn't help but feel sour in his heart: "Or is it true?" Hmph, I'm sorry, I'm in your way. My little Yu family family, where can it be compared with the Lie family? It was a big faction that had existed for thousands of years, and it was a supreme honor to be the son-in-law of the Lie family. ”
Mei Lingyun smiled bitterly, where is this?
The wind was cool and couldn't help but laugh. However, he was still very discerning, and he suddenly said: "I remember, tomorrow is the formation material trading conference, I have to prepare, and I have to inquire about the news, so that I can buy something more desirable tomorrow." ”
With that, he went out.
Lu Yao and Mei Lingyun were left behind, and Lu Yao was still sulking with a pout.
Mei Lingyun was very helpless, so she could only pull Lu Yao's fragrant shoulders and said affectionately: "Meeting you is the greatest luck in my life." (To be continued.) )
