"Didn't Guimeng discover a large vein of Qingxuan iron ore?"

After receiving the Qingxuan Iron Essence, Chen Ping was in a good mood for a while, and said casually with a little tentativeness.

Qingxuan iron essence is a third-order ore, which can generally only be derived from large Qingxuan iron ore.

"Haha, Daoist friends threw out more than 200,000 spirit stones with a wave of his hand, could it be that your Chen family found a spirit stone mine?"

Shangguan Jin made a big fortune and was in a very good mood, so he was not angry at Chen Ping's arrogance, but joked with deep meaning.

Chen Ping was slightly stunned and apologized: "Don't blame Shangguan Daoyou, it's Chen who is abrupt." I had to rush back to Haichang next, so I said goodbye first. ”

"It's rare for Chen Daoyou to come here, why don't you stay in my Smelting Fire Alliance for a few days?"

Shangguan Jin smiled and said.

"Next time, definitely."

Chen Ping arched his hand with excuse in his mouth, and then stopped talking nonsense, and flew out directly from the window on the second floor of the main hall.

"I wish Chen Daoyou a safe journey."

Shangguan Jin smiled, and his eyes narrowed into a glimmer of sky.

It wasn't until Chen Ping's figure was about to disappear from view that the smile on his face suddenly retracted, his expression suddenly frowned, suddenly showed ruthlessness, and became extremely hesitant.

"He dared to come to my Bazhu Island alone to conduct a large transaction, and he should have something to rely on behind him. Maybe there are a few Chen monks hiding outside the island, so why should I shoot myself in the foot? Anyway, the spirit stones I earned this time are enough for me to build several spirit weapons. ”

Whispering to himself like this, Shangguan Jin's face regained its previous calmness, and he frowned: "Alas, let's think about how to face the Yang Alliance's questioning." ”

……

After waiting for the Smelting Fire Alliance station, Chen Ping identified the direction and rushed into the northern sky with all his might.

He didn't stop at all along the way, and flew away for four thousand miles in a row, until he passed by a small desert island, and he dropped and took a few pills to restore his physical strength and mana to the peak.

"Shangguanjin is not very bold, but there is nothing wrong with being cautious after all."

Chen Ping said strangely.

Before leaving, his divine sense covered the entire basin, and he could clearly see the changes in Shangguan Jin's expression.

As long as this guy dares to have evil thoughts, Chen Ping will go on a killing spree to destroy the Smelting Fire Alliance, and then take away the Sun of Earth Fire.

It is certainly uncomfortable to be besieged by more than a dozen Zhuji, but if you pay some price, you can barely kill them all.

But that Shangguanjin finally gave up the pursuit, and Chen Ping naturally would not be forced to do anything.

Who doesn't have evil thoughts?

It was he who occasionally had the intention of overthrowing such a big rebellion as the Lanyue Sect.

As for the tens of thousands of spirit stones that cost more to buy Qingxuan Iron Essence, this loss-making business, Chen Ping was not very annoyed.

When the Pure Yang Sword comes out, he will immediately have the strength to truly match the early stage of Yuan Dan, and some sesame peanuts will be lost if he loses them.

After resting for a few hours, Chen Ping wiped on the storage ring, released a spirit boat, braved the wind and waves, and embarked on the return journey again.

……

Half a month later, Chen Ping returned to Haichang Island.

At this point, it was ten days later than he expected.

Because the luck on the way back to the Hui clan was not so good, he inadvertently broke into the ovulation place of a group of second-order fish demons.

As a result, he was unsurprisingly regarded as an intruder, and hundreds of first-order fish demons, led by the five-headed second-order fish demon kings, launched a crazy attack on him.

When Chen Ping finally killed the fish, he had deviated from the course and broke into a strange sea area.

He just wanted to escape, but he never expected to dive up a behemoth more than ten feet tall from the deep sea.

Chen Ping used his divine sense to probe and found a result that frightened him.

A demon beast in the early stage of the third order, the Dark Sky Golden Spider.

This spider itself is only a demon bloodline, and according to common sense, it is difficult to advance to the third-order realm.

The golden locomb spider has the characteristics of hibernation and summer hibernation, and is in a state of deep sleep for at least half of the year.

It seemed that it was its own aura that made it a little threatening, and it woke up.

Chen Ping didn't say a word, and cast the Demon Luo Shadow to flee for his life, but fortunately, the golden Luo spider's body technique was slow, and after chasing and losing the enemy, he hid back to the bottom of the sea.

Seeing that he was out of danger, he immediately turned out the sea map and added the coordinates of the spider demon.

"That spider demon should have just been promoted to the third order, and it is not a fish that slipped through the net under the suppression of the Moon Sect."

Chen Ping said thoughtfully.

In the future, if he breaks through Yuan Dan, he will inevitably find an opportunity to slaughter the golden luo.

Although there would be some considerable rewards for reporting to the Lanyue Sect, Chen Ping didn't intend to give it up.

The third-order demon beast is full of treasures, and if it is refined into a high-level puppet, it can be much more practical than ordinary magic weapons and talismans.

The summit of Fugo Mountain.

In the cave, there was silence, and Xue Yun didn't know where to go.

In front of the bamboo house, there was a jade slip suspended, and Chen Ping's consciousness swept and found that it was left by the Taoist Xue Yun.

It was stated that she had led the monks of the Confession Hall to the sea in search of a way to make money, and it might take months or even a year to return to the family.

Chen Ping's heart moved, and he kneaded the jade slip in his hand into powder.

The worship hall is self-reliant, and of course he is happy to see it.

Otherwise, with the gradual increase in the number of guest secretaries, the annual payment of money alone is an extremely exaggerated expense.

Moreover, he reminded Xue Yun many times that he must develop the worship hall with the purpose of survival of the fittest.

In short, within the scope of the ninth layer of Qi training, Keqing, who is inferior in strength or has no hope of advancing to the foundation, can arrange for them to act as the vanguard of the fighting method and charge into battle.

While the number of people is strictly controlled, the strength of the worship hall will become stronger and stronger.

He had five drops of pure water in his hand, which he intended to put in the worship hall.

But the way to obtain this thing is not to exchange it for spirit stones and resources.

The specific process, Chen Ping wants Xue Yun to formulate.

After all, the second and third rank guests of the worship hall are all peak qi cultivation monks, and they all have more or less hope of rushing into the foundation building.

This requires careful screening.

The spiritual root qualifications are not mentioned for the time being, but at least the heart and loyalty must be passed.

After thinking for a while, Chen Ping sent a message to Chen Yiru and invited her to come and see her.

After receiving the transmission, Chen Yiru immediately got up and walked towards the bamboo house with light steps.

"Aunt Ru, these two one-patterned Zhuji Dan were bought with the family's public wealth, and you accept them as a reward for winning the Dan Dabi."

Seeing her enter the house, Chen Ping handed over two jade boxes and commanded lightly.

The family's Tsukidan has always been kept in a treasure trove.

But the foundation of the treasure house is currently the fifth elder Hui Qiuyan.

Chen Ping has no trust in this woman.

Chen Xingchao at least has the orthodox Chen bloodline, and basically will not make moves that harm the interests of the family.

But Hui Qiuyan was raised by the Broken Star Sect and taught the exercises, and her feelings for the sect were even above the Chen family.

Otherwise, even in order to avoid suspicion, she should not have been in frequent contact with the monks of the Broken Star Gate during such a sensitive period.

"You really got Tsukidan."

Chen Yiru stretched out his hand to catch it, and said with a teasing face.

Before, Chen Xingchao and his wife both questioned, but Chen Ping said that he didn't buy it, he was really an dishonest guy.

Chen Ping smiled softly and said, "The rules of the Dan Dabi remain unchanged, but the rewards for the top ten can be more generous." Before the three elders closed the retreat, they felt very ashamed to be the shopkeeper, so he offered to give the family a subsidy of fifty years. ”

"In my opinion, it's better to use his money to increase the reward of winning the Dan Dabi, and encourage the younger generations to cultivate diligently."

"Well, the three elders are selfless, and they don't forget their family after closing their lives, so they deserve our respect."

The corners of Chen Yiru's mouth twitched, obviously trying to hold back her smile.

Chen Ping: This is a revenge for Ming Huanghuang.

Back then, he fled Haichang City, and Chen Xingchao was furious and detained him for several years.

Now, it is Chen Xingchao who has been forced to return ten times as much.

"Ping'er, a few days ago, the Shattered Star Sect sent an envoy over."

Chen Yiru said: "However, I sent him away on the grounds that you were not in the clan. ”

"Oh, what do you mean by the Shattered Star Gate?"

Chen Ping said quietly.

"The resources supplied have been increased by 50%."

Chen Yiru glanced at him and said succinctly.

Since the Chen family occupied Haichang Island, every ten years, they would escort about 30,000 spirit stones of resources to the Shattered Star Gate.

This number has remained unchanged for six hundred years.

This time, the Broken Star Gate was caught off guard by a huge increase in supply, which was clearly aimed at Chen Ping, the new ruler of the Chen family.

"The news of Hui Qiuyan's communication?"

Chen Ping half-narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

"I can't be sure, the Shattered Star Gate has arranged a few loose eyeliners in my Haichang City, and the family has actually known about it for a long time."

Chen Yiru pondered for a moment and replied.

Chen Ping defeated Chen Xingchao and completely controlled the family, and only a little more than a month later, the Broken Star Gate sent an envoy to Haichang Island, saying that no one had reported the news, and even a fool would not believe it.

"Shangzong will send someone again, if you agree, Aunt Ru."

Chen Ping blew his palm, and said calmly: "The Broken Star Gate has protected the clan for hundreds of years, and now that the war with the Reverse Star Sect is the time to burn resources, it is only natural for us to do our best." ”

"In the past few years, the family business has been affected by the two wars, and it has been in a lot of depression, and there is almost no balance of public wealth on the books every year."

Stretching out a jade finger and pressing the center of his eyebrows, Chen Yiru said helplessly.

"Some of the family elders who are insufficient are evenly divided to make up for it, and the ancestor Chen Xinyou asks the juniors to build a foundation and carry the Ding, at this time, they are still guarding the spirit stone and waiting for death?"

Chen Ping snorted coldly and said in an unkind tone.

The lack of money in the family does not mean that the high-level people in the clan are poor.

The newly promoted elders Chen Dieyu, Chen Zhoukang and others may only take out 50,000 or 60,000 spirit stones, but the old foundations, such as Chen Munian, Chen Tong, and Chen Xiangwen, have at least 100,000 yuan of property.

Especially the second elder Chen Munian, this woman has lived for more than 190 years, she is alone, and has never cultivated direct descendants, this kind of mother Pixiu who only eats and does not vomit, has accumulated resources of 150,000 spirit stones, Chen Ping doesn't think it is much.

As for Chen Yiru and Xue Yun, not to mention, their net worth is far above that of the same level of casual cultivation.

"Of course I'm okay with sharing the share of the supply, but on the other side, I still need to come to the door one by one to reason."

Hearing the dissatisfaction in his words, Chen Yiru hurriedly expressed his attitude.

"If you tell the second elder to do this, just say it's what I mean."

After pondering for a long time, Chen Ping said gloomily.

Chen Munian's cultivation of the Water Clear Heart Recipe caused her to be withdrawn and careless.

This old woman who is the same as a hedgehog, Chen Ping also has a headache to deal with.

His initial plan was to wait for the Pure Yang Sword to be refined, and then set up a mining hall.

Ye Mofan was in charge of the mining hall, and Chen Munian was there, and the title of honorary deacon was forced to be given to her.

Out of sight is clean, anyway, this woman's lifespan is only a few decades left, and the second half of her life is not as good as looking for mineral veins for her family.

"Aunt is not the third elder who is on the side of Ping'er, she is purely against everything I support."

With a tangled look on her face, Chen Yiru finally gritted her teeth and explained.

"I know, so it's just a knock on her."

Chen Ping shook his head and smiled, and said leisurely: "Next, I am ready to continue to retreat and practice, and the family affairs are as troublesome as my aunt will take care of." ”

"It's a matter of duty."

Chen Yiru nodded and said seriously.

The Chen family has produced ten foundations, which is almost the same as the former Jin family.

Now there is only one Yuan Dan overhaul that suppresses luck.

Previously, Chen Xingchao, who had the strongest supernatural powers, was defeated by Chen Ping, and all the Zhuji clearly knew what this meant.

In the later stage of foundation building, Chen Ping District actually has a strength comparable to that of a half-step Yuan Dan!

And when he breaks the Yuan Dan, presumably his supernatural powers are far above the ordinary peers, maybe even Jin Zhaoheng will be able to compete with one or two.

Therefore, Chen Yiru willingly helped him take care of the family.

The stronger Chen Ping's strength, the greater her chance of condensing Yuan Dan in the future, which is a mutually beneficial choice.

"Ping'er, the candidate for the deacon of the fifth hall has been decided."

Seeing that Chen Ping had no other instructions, Chen Yiru said slowly: "Chen Qiudong of the Internal Affairs Hall, Chen Leining of the Law Enforcement Hall will not make changes, and there are three new deacons, namely Chen Ting of the Xingzhi Hall, Chen He of the Foreign Affairs Hall, and Chen Hongjie of the Chuangong Hall. ”

"It's good, but has Hongjie advanced to the ninth layer of Qi training?"

Chen Ping took a sip of tea and said without being salty or light.

"He just broke through last month."

Chen Yiru said with a smile: "Hongjie has been exercising in the Chuangong Hall for many years, and he is your cousin, and everyone is very recognized. ”

The latter reason is the point.

There are not even a few peak Qi cultivators who have been in the Chuangong Hall for decades, so why not use them?

It's nothing more than Chen Ping's support, and the clansmen with big generations don't dare to open their mouths even if they are not convinced.

The examples of the three clan elders are there, Chen Ping is not a person who respects the old and loves the young.

At this point, the Chen family completely fell into his hands.

There are several deacons in the five halls, among which Chen Qiudong and Chen Hongjie are his henchmen.

Chen Ting and Chen He have an inextricable relationship with Chen Yiru.

The remaining Chen Leining has always been the hardcore of the patriarch Chen Tong.

But under Chen Ping's suppression, even Chen Tong was in power and was tragically overthrown, let alone a small Qi Cultivator?

Chen Leining is regarded as what he left for Chen Tong, and the last trace of talk is better than nothing.

To be honest, Chen Yiru and Xue Yun's arrangement shows the word nepotism everywhere.

But Chen Ping didn't think much about it.

Cultivation is a great power, and it is also human nature to pull people close to you.

Of course, if these guys go too far, Chen Ping will definitely let them taste what a thunder wrist is.

It's like Shangguan Jin, who couldn't resist the temptation and sold Qingxuan Iron Essence to him privately, if he was the leader of the Yang League, he would have to pick off this person's skin to set an example.

The two chatted for a while, and Chen Yiru said goodbye and left.

After drinking the tea, Chen Ping walked towards the waterhole in the depths of the courtyard step by step.

He carved a cave in the rock wall, and on tiptoe, he floated into it.

Sitting cross-legged, Chen Ping took out a few pill bottles from his arms.

Crossing the Fire Scatter, the three-pattern Golden Flower Jade Dew Pill is all the treasures with the best auxiliary cultivation effect at the current stage.

"Whew."

Chen Ping took a deep breath, poured out a handful of fire, and decisively wiped it on his lower abdomen.

The next moment, it seemed that tens of millions of thick heat streams spread out from his body, flowed to his limbs and hundreds of remains, and then returned to the dantian.

Then, Chen Ping struck while the iron was hot, and without hesitation, he swallowed another Golden Flower Jade Dew Pill.

The temperature around him quickly heated up, and the scorching spiritual power brought a wave of heat to sweep in, and streams of condensed flames suddenly flooded out of his body, distorting a small piece of air around him.

……

Time is like an arrow, and six years have passed quietly.

Chen Ping was dressed in green clothes and stood quietly on the water with his hands behind his back.

Looking at the aura of mana that he leaked out, he had already entered the realm of foundation building.

Strangely, however, there was no joy on his face, but rather a gloomy and cold one.

"How the hell did she crack the cobweb blood mark?"

His eyes shrank, and Chen Ping muttered in a low voice.
