And far away in the cave mansion of the White Yang Sect, another mountain parallel to the White Jade Peak, this is the retreat place of Qiu An, another Jindan elder in addition to Guan Yuanzheng.

At this moment, an old man with white hair and long beard was standing in the center of the cave, reporting something to the lean man sitting on a chair on the steps. The old man standing was Zong Cao, the Zhuji Elder who was in charge of the affairs of the sect, and the one sitting was naturally Qiu An of the Jindan period.

"So, this Dry Grass Valley is still about two months away from the barrier opening, do you have any inquiries about what is in the valley now?" Joan said in a calm tone, but others always felt that the voice was a little hoarse.

This Qiu An seems to have a completely different temperament from Guan Yuanzheng, and his horizontal eyebrows are mostly a moody person, so Zong Cao, who still seems more casual in Bai Yufeng, seems a little restrained here.

The question of the person who spoke did not seem to have received an effective answer, so Zong Cao had to reply cautiously: "Back to Uncle Qiu's words, the situation in the valley is still unknown, and the barrier is estimated to be opened at that time, but there are some variables. ”

Qiu An raised his eyebrows, and leaned forward slightly in his sitting posture: "You group of wine bags and rice bags, you haven't known the internal situation for so many days, and what does the so-called variable refer to?" The anger in the language made Zong Cao, who was standing, shudder for no reason.

"This barrier outside the valley will not be shaken in the slightest even if it is attacked by the full strength of the Jindan period monk, the white mist inside it is vast, not only the barrier, but even the breath emitted by the withered grass inside has greatly interfered with the monk's spiritual exploration, not only us, but the other three sects are all confused about the situation inside. Hearing the other party's unhappiness, Zong Cao had to explain carefully.

The person above seemed to be a little relieved, and he continued: "Since many of our spies reported back, it is all due to the eroding aura of the many dead grasses in the valley that is destroying the foundation of the entire Great Array. Therefore, the opening of this barrier is gradual, and only monks whose spiritual power does not exceed the foundation building period can enter the barrier as soon as possible when the barrier is weak, such as the foundation building and above monks entering the valley need to wait a little longer. ”

After listening to Zong Cao's words, Qiu An sat back on the back of his thick stone chair, his fingers tapping the armrests of the chair irregularly, as if thinking about something, and Zong Cao had to wait quietly below, and he didn't dare to take a breath.

After a short time, Qiu An seemed to have figured out something, and said to him: "In this case, then you can arrange for those Qi refining cultivators in the assembly gate, remember, it is those disciples with average qualifications who basically have no hope of impacting the foundation building period as the front-line personnel who will enter the valley at that time, no matter how high or low the cultivation is, as long as the foundation building has little hope, all of them will be sent to me." Several other companies will inevitably do the same, and they will be the pioneers of their fellow disciples. ”

Hearing these words, Zong Cao looked at the people above in shock, this time for the exploration of the Dry Grass Valley, several sects, cultivators, and scattered cultivators were all gearing up.

If there is really a heavy treasure, it must be a fight to the death between several sects, even if the disciples who go can come back, they will be affected by the breath of withered grass for a long time.

This time, for the sake of the situation in the valley, which is not yet known, he has to risk the cultivation and lives of many disciples, and now the scene of Ding Ding in the sect is thriving after years of vigorous expansion, but I am afraid that in a few months, the sect will be in a depression.

Of course, Zong Ke only dared to think about this in his heart, he promised and was about to go down to order, but Qiu An stopped him: "In addition to this, we have another important matter, Fengzi Zhenshi and nephew have been cultivating to the Fake Pill for a long time, he sent me a letter a few days ago, and recently his knot Jin Dan is almost refined, and becoming the third Jin Dan monk in my sect is just around the corner, you have to take good care of it." ”

"Yes, the disciple will definitely do all the preparations to ensure that Senior Brother Feng can successfully marry the Dan!" Zong Cao admitted.

At this moment, he was also very conflicted in his heart, not only did he feel that this matter came suddenly, but he was also happy that the sect could have one more Jindan monk, and at the same time, the senior brother who had been calling him for many years was finally going to call him uncle.

The smile on the corner of his mouth doesn't know whether it is bitter or sweet, he himself is old, I am afraid that he has no hope for condensing Jin Dan.

"Master Feng's nephew's letter also specifically mentioned a disciple named Du Rong, and praised him a lot, he was able to refine the knot pill with peace of mind, thanks to this son, he single-handedly took care of many alchemy affairs in the alchemy hall. It just so happened that I also remembered this incident, as if this person called Du Rong had inferior qualifications, but this alchemy wizard in this sect was also very valuable, so he was not included in the selection of people for this trip. Including the disciples of the Alchemy Hall, alchemists are also scarce in recent years, and they can't waste manpower in vain. ”

The corners of Qiu An's mouth smiled, this alchemy master is even more rare than the foundation building monk, even if the qualifications are inferior, only if there is enough supply of pills, so that he can forcibly build the foundation successfully, he can also contribute to the sect for decades more.

Zong Cao also had some impressions of the name Durong, and after a little search in his mind, he remembered that this strange body with nine kinds of spiritual roots was indeed unheard of.

Zong Ke replied cautiously: "Yes, I also have an impression of this son, when I saw that his spiritual root was extremely poor, I thought about being assigned to Senior Brother Feng's sect to fight, but I didn't expect this kid to be quite talented in Dan Dao." It's also interesting to say, his own sister Du Ningyu is still the first person in the Qi refining period in my sect, and she has cultivated to the ninth level of Qi refining in just two years, but I am afraid that building a foundation is a recent thing. ”

For the rising star of the Qi refining period in this sect, Qiu An, who was one of the absolute powers of the entire White Yang Sect, was naturally very familiar.

"Needless to say, as long as there is no accident, it must be the future pillar of my sect, and it is also the successor of me and Senior Brother Guan, so there is no room for loss for this woman. And this is all melting, the reason why I have not made an inch of progress in cultivation over the years I probably know in the letter of Master Feng's nephew, not only because of the inferiority of the spiritual root, but also because of the frequent contact with withered grass in the past two years, and the great damage to cultivation is also inseparable. ”

"So I've thought about it this time, the rules in the door have to be changed, and you can arrange for the outer door officials to do some simple work such as grinding medicine, and the monk is only responsible for alchemy. As long as you ensure the confidentiality of the work, the rest of the rules and regulations will be arranged by you and the head of the family and your nephew. ”

Zong Ke respectfully promised, but he also sighed in his heart, the rules formulated by this sect for a long time have been mentioned many times by Feng Zizhen in the past, but no one has paid attention to them, and now that he is about to tie the knot, he has solved this problem without mentioning it himself.

It's just that since Du Rong entered the door, this old man no longer shouted for the sect to arrange outside people to help, and that Du Rong seemed to have really given up a monk as a cultivator to settle down, and just quietly focused on refining medicine.

Zong Cao couldn't help but feel that this person who had achieved alchemy didn't seem to have a normal brain.

This Jindan monk really has a pivotal position in the door, and it seems that even if this Durong doesn't like to cultivate, the future is bright, there is a Jindan monk who values him so much, and he has a high talent in alchemy, so it should be possible to build a foundation with the strong support of the sect.

It's just that this time should be very long, maybe he will basically be old at the age when he should build the foundation, and the rest of the longevity will basically be burned out for the sect to continue to shine.

"That's right, the Blood Pill refined by Master Feng's nephew is quite miraculous for the monk's serious injury, you take a trip to the Medicine Refining Hall this time, remember to be hidden, except for our high-level and Master Feng's nephew of the Medicine Refining Hall and this Durong, don't let anyone else know about it. This time, if we want to take care of the Blood Pill over there, we must keep enough two hundred to prevent accidents from happening in the battle here. ”

Qiu An suddenly thought of this stubble, hurriedly added it, and then waved his hand to let Zong Cao go.

When Zong Ke walked out of the cave, Qiu An muttered to himself: "Hey, one brother and sister is good at alchemy, and the other is a cultivation genius, which is really interesting." However, the important thing in front of us is this dry grass valley, the changes in it will not be simple, if there is any strange treasure in the world, with the background of our Baiyang Sect, we are not necessarily afraid of anyone. ”
