Chapter 401: Late Yuan Dan Period (I)
The Floating Shadow Dojo is a city within a city, and there are no tall walls around it, but a fourth-level formation is arranged.
In addition to having a powerful effect of forbidden air, this array can also block the aura to prevent overflow.
The colorful auspicious clouds above his head are one of his manifest visions.
The dojo has been built for at least thousands of years, and even though only a few third-order spirit veins are buried, after years of precipitation, the cultivation environment here is no worse than the station of the ordinary Jindan sect.
Such an excellent place to meditate is something that everyone yearns for.
Finding a random corner of the dojo to hide, or applying for a job as a buddy in a certain shop, seems theoretically possible.
But Chen Ping knew that staying in the dojo for a long time to cultivate was by no means an easy task.
Sure enough, he learned from the guards that the two hundred spirit stones could only stay in the dojo for five days.
If the time limit has expired and you want to continue to stay, you must make up the spirit stone within one day.
Don't try to avoid the guards, quietly absorb the aura in the dojo and cultivate.
Because from the moment you entered, the fourth-level formation captured your mana aura.
A flagrant violation of the regulations will lead to a ruthless bombardment of the formation.
Of course, in the history of the Floating Shadow Dojo, it was very rare to directly operate a fourth-level large array to kill unruly monks.
Generally, guards are sent to warn first, salute first and then soldiers, and others can't find much fault.
As for doing chores in the dojo shop, it is even more difficult to indirectly avoid high fees.
All the people in the ashram, including the shopkeeper and the clerks in the attic of the shop, are all registered and strictly controlled in quantity.
The shop junior who recruited the Qi cultivation period was a little more relaxed, anyway, even if they meditated for twelve hours a day, they couldn't grab much aura.
And Zhuji, and even the monks of the Yuan Dan Realm, belong to a shop that needs to pay a huge poll tax to the dojo every year.
Therefore, in the Floating Shadow Dojo, the recruits in the Qi training period are much more popular than the foundation building monks.
Only a few shops with special business methods, such as Hongyan Pavilion, will recruit a large number of high-level monks.
It's no wonder that Hongyan Pavilion's consumption is expensive, and it is estimated that half of the net income is used to pay the poll tax.
"That's probably the case, many Yuan Dan seniors will choose to buy a shop in the dojo or rent a cave mansion. With the cultivation of Chen's predecessors, there must be no shortage of that little wealth. ”
A tall dojo guard bowed slightly and patiently explained to Chen Ping.
"Thank you for being honest."
With a smile and a smile, Chen Ping threw off the entrance fee of two hundred spirit stones, and the figure flashed onto the street.
He was going to go around first, and after learning more about the ashram, he would decide whether or not to meditate and retreat here all year round.
……
Four days later.
In a single room in an antique teahouse, Chen Ping looked comfortable and meditated on tea, occasionally glancing at the street below.
In the past few days, he calmed down and walked around the floating dojo as if he were looking at the flowers.
The prosperity and liveliness of this place are enough to dwarf Wangqin Island, the holy land of Dandao.
In the valley with a radius of more than 100 miles, there are 100,000 resident monks, and more than 2,000 shops and attics gather together.
The Lanyue Pavilion of the Lanyue Sect and the treasure dwelling of the Ghost Fire Gate are all among them.
What Chen Ping never imagined was that even the Dongfeng Building of the Chixiao Sect had opened a branch in the Floating Quiet Dojo.
It's just that due to the low strength, the location is in a remote corner, the door is crowded, the business is bleak, and the business is far inferior to the Dongfeng buildings near the Chenjia sea area.
Knocking on the wooden table, Chen Ping's eyes flickered.
Originally, settling in or around the Floating Shadow Dojo was his initial decision.
After all, Wuyuan Mountain, another cultivation holy land, was stationed with several Jindan Ancestors all year round, and he had many secrets and didn't dare to get too close.
The Fuyou Dojo is located in the southeast of the island, separated from the ferry and Wuyuan Mountain for 3,000 miles, which is a more suitable retreat place.
But Chen Ping inquired, and learned that in recent years, Jin Dan had been arranged in the dojo to guard.
The seniors on duty in this round are none other than Yin Zhenren of the Lanyue Sect.
Although her old man had not been suppressing it in the dojo, it still aroused Chen Ping's vigilance.
Monk Jindan's divine sense is far stronger than him, in case he sits on the Kutong Heavenly Lotus and is discovered by Yin Zhenren, I am afraid that the outcome will be unpredictable.
This heavy treasure that can assist in cultivation also has a certain temptation for Jindan monks.
After a while, Chen Ping decisively gave up his plan to settle in the Floating Quiet Dojo.
It doesn't matter if the aura environment is poor, and your own safety always comes first.
Chen Ping picked up the teacup in his hand and took a sip gently.
Inside the cup, there is a light blue liquid with a fragrant fragrance.
Don't underestimate this ordinary cup of tea, but it is made by brewing and cooling a few pieces of third-order spiritual tea leaves, which is worth five days of penance.
Previously, after Chen Ping swept the menu in Yujian, he ordered one without hesitation.
A small sip of his sip was worth fifty spirit stones, and a cup cost six thousand.
After a few days of shopping, Chen Ping was touched the most, and it can be described in one sentence when summed up.
Without a spirit stone, it is difficult to move an inch.
The ultra-high price of the Floating Shadow Dojo can be called the most experienced in his two lives.
As for the reasons behind it, it is obvious to all.
The sea area of the Twin Cities is rich in resources, not to mention the countless demon beasts, in the Heavenly Beast Mountain Range, there are many spirit flowers and spirit grasses, which are rare high-level things, and they also appear occasionally.
Eighty percent of the thousand-year-old spiritual grass circulating in Fuyun City was harvested from Heavenly Beast Mountain.
The number of adventurous monks who are active all year round has reached one million.
It is impossible for the sects and families with a little strength in the inland sea to turn a blind eye to this huge cornucopia.
They have purchased shops in the city, and the more powerful ones have also set up their own auction houses and buying houses to earn a lot of spirit stones.
In this way, the rare treasures that flow from all over the Yuanyan Islands to the Floating City every year are simply countless.
If you want people and treasures, the prosperity of this city is completely reasonable.
It is said that Yanning City, 80,000 miles away, has a grand immortal road that is even better than here.
……
"Senior, down is Di Gaoyu, the deacon of the Immortal Tea Pavilion, is it convenient for you now?"
After a few moments, a slightly respectful voice sounded outside the door.
"Come in."
Through the wooden door, Chen Ping promised.
"I heard from the guy who received it, the senior's surname is Chen?"
An old man in yellow with a fat head and big ears opened the door lightly, and when he saw Chen Ping sitting on it, he immediately said flatteringly.
"Exactly, Deacon Di is polite."
Chen Ping nodded slightly, and in front of this old man who had built the foundation of the Great Perfection, he did not hold the shelf of his predecessors at all.
Speaking of which, the teahouse at the foot is simply decorated, but it is the famous Immortal Tea Pavilion in the city, which is controlled by the Tainan Sect.
Tainan Sect, one of the four Jindan giants in Fuyou City, is as famous as Lanyue Sect, Youhuomen, and Hanyao Valley.
There is only one Taishang elder in the early stage of Jindan in this sect, but he is proficient in the art of spiritual planting, and half of the high-level spiritual rice and spiritual tea in the city are produced in the Tainan Sect.
Through years of accumulation, Tainanzong has an unknown number of industries, and it is rich and oily.
Xiancha Pavilion is one of its most profitable shops, specializing in the sale of spiritual tea, spiritual flower water, and spiritual fruit drinks.
Chen Ping's purpose in patronizing the Immortal Tea Pavilion was not as simple as drinking a cup of tea on the surface.
When he first entered the store, he showed a little bit of cultivation, which made the guy extremely awe-inspired, and then he saw this Deacon Di and it was a matter of course.
"Chen is currently in the middle of the Yuan Dan period, do you have a suitable minor spirit tea to recommend?"
Glancing at him, Chen said indifferently.
"I don't know if the seniors are drinking tea in this pavilion, or are they going to buy a large amount and go back to brew it themselves?"
Hearing this, Di Gaoyu did not reply immediately, but asked with a smile.
"You introduce a few spirit objects first, Chen is prepared, and there will be no shortage of your spirit stones."
Chen Ping waved his hand and said proudly.
"Great patron!"
Di Gaoyu was secretly excited, and quickly took out a jade slip from his arms, handed it over with both hands and said, "Senior Chen, please browse it, it records the details of what my Immortal Tea Pavilion sells." ”
After a cursory sweep, Chen Ping groaned quietly.
More than 60 types of spiritual teas and spiritual flowers were introduced in the jade slip, mainly second-order and third-order, and there were about four or five kinds that were beneficial to his cultivation.
What attracted Chen Ping's attention was the several matching packages launched by Xianchage.
"Seniors can consider those several packages composed of spiritual tea and spiritual flowers, not that the juniors boast, these are the essence of thousands of years of research in my Tainan Sect, brewing several spiritual objects at the same time according to the package, the medicinal effect can be increased by half a percent, and the seniors will be promoted one step earlier."
Seeing that Chen Ping was silent, Di Gaoyu cautiously spoke.
"Doesn't your pavilion have fourth-order spiritual tea for sale?"
Chen Ping touched his chin noncommittally, and then asked sharply.
In fact, he didn't care much about the efficacy of the third-order spiritual object.
A cup of six thousand spirit stones of the old sound tea will only increase the cultivation by five days.
And the price is amazingly high, and it is extremely not cost-effective.
However, this kind of spiritual creature generally does not have any side effects, and can be swallowed at the same time as the elixir.
Chen Ping's purpose is very simple, use high-quality pills, Qingfeng Jade Soup, and Partial Door Spirit Tea together to maximize the speed of cultivation.
"Fourth-Order Spirit Tea?"
Di Gaoyu let out a sigh and said curtly: "To tell the truth, even in the sect, only a few fourth-order spirit plants have been planted, and the annual output is not enough for the distribution of the uncles and the ancestors, so how can they end up in the Immortal Tea Pavilion." ”
After listening to him, Chen Ping frowned, and it seemed that he had encountered the embarrassing situation of having a huge amount of money but no treasure to buy.
This Di Gaoyu should not have deliberately deceived.
Each fourth-order spiritual plant is the essence of the Jindan Sect, how can there be a reason not to supply their own monks first?
"Deacon Di, Chen is willing to buy the fourth-order spiritual tea at a price higher than one percent of the market."
Chen Ping was a little unwilling.
"If Senior Chen knew a certain uncle in this sect, he might be able to buy a few pieces."
With a wry smile, Di Gaoyu came up with a useless idea.
"Oh?"
Chen Ping raised his eyebrows, clenched his fists with both hands towards the void, and said, "Brother Dao of Tainan Sect, please show up." ”
"Daoist friends have a keen perception, and the pavilion master admires it very much."
A cloud of blue light flashed into the room, revealing a middle-aged man in his forties.
This person has a thin face and three strands of long hair, and at first glance he is the kind of temperamental and stable character.
His appearance is somewhat similar to Di Gaoyu, but there is another indescribable sense of solemnity.
"Uncle."
Di Gaoyu's eyes were shocked, and he bowed down and bowed.
"Gao Yu, you step back first."
Sitting down peacefully, the middle-aged man waved his hand.
After Deacon Di left, this person had a good time to report his identity: "In Xia Di Xiuyuan, he is the pavilion master of the Immortal Tea Pavilion, and he is also the elder of the Tainan Sect. ”
"Chen Ye, the scattered cultivation in the area of the Twin Cities."
Chen Ping smiled slightly and bowed his hand to him.
The moment Di Gaoyu entered, he found a powerful divine sense on this person's shoulder.
He was willing to use high-level acquisition of spiritual tea, and he also said it to Di Xiuyuan.
And this Di Xiuyuan really thought about it, controlled the slight fluctuation of his divine consciousness, and deliberately sold a flaw.
"The face of the Taoist friend is very unfamiliar, should it be from the Yuan Youth League?"
Di Xiuyuan's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly asked.
"Yuan Youth League?"
Chen Ping looked stunned, shook his head and said: "Chen has just entered the city for a few days, and he has really never heard of this Yuan Youth League, and he asked Di Daoyou for some advice." ”
"Chen Daoyou has only been here for a few days, no wonder he has not been invited by the Yuan Youth League."
Revealing a hint of abruptness, Di Xiuyuan groaned and said: "The Yuan Youth League is a new force, it has been created for less than a year, but the expansion speed of this alliance is extremely amazing, just last month, it has been designated as one of the top ten forces in Fuyou City, squeezing out the position of Jifeng Mountain. ”
Hearing him explain this, a hint of surprise suddenly flashed on Chen Ping's face.
The top ten forces assessed by the floating ghost city every six months are not in vain.
In addition to the four major Jindan sects that are firmly in the forefront, the six top Yuan Dan forces are also not easy to provoke, and they have at least two or three Great Perfection monks.
It only took one year for the Yuan Youth League to break the deep-rooted power ranking, and it must have its own unique side.
"Daoist friends also think it's strange, right?"
Di Xiuyuan pursed the corners of his mouth and said calmly: "For some reason, Fuyou City has newly recruited forty or fifty masters of the Yuan Dan Realm, including several Great Perfection and Fake Dan monks. ”
"The founder of the Yuan Youth League is a new Yuan Dan Great Perfection cultivator who has entered the city, and they only recruit foreign cultivators like Chen Daoyou."
"Although the original Yuan Youth League has developed rapidly, it is still not ranked in Fuyou City."
"But a few months ago, the Yuan Youth League didn't know what luck they had taken, and invited a deputy alliance leader of the Fake Dan realm, and the fourth-order demon pill refined by this person was actually the blood of the Holy Demon, which made his strength increase tremendously, and his divine power was close to the predecessor in the early stage of the Golden Pill."
"Jifeng Mountain's flower path friend, even if it is the Yuan Dan Great Perfection of the mutated spirit root, is far from being the opponent of that fake Dan, so there is no doubt that he has been drawn out of the ranks of the top ten forces."
"The fake pill achieved with the Holy Demon Bloodline Pill is indeed strong and abnormal, and it cannot be matched by real people."
Chen Ping exclaimed.
The false pill cultivator who was made by refining the Heavenly Demon Pill had about fifty percent of the supernatural powers in the early stage of the Golden Pill.
In his previous life, he belonged to this category.
In the cultivation world, nine out of nine false pills are the same as him.
After all, the fourth-order Heavenly Demon Demon Pill was already a precious thing.
Di Xiuyuan's description is not an exaggeration, the fake pill that refines the Holy Demon Pill has at least seventy percent of the divine power of the early stage of the Golden Pill, and even very few can reach eighty percent.
However, no matter how strong the fake pill is, Chen Ping is only in awe of them, without the slightest envy.
Stepping into the realm of false pills is tantamount to cutting off the path.
How could he, a great monk who aimed at the stage of incarnation, admire a group of people who were destined to be left behind by him?
"Di Daoyou, why does Floating Ghost City need a large number of foreign monks to live in this time?"
Chen Ping's heart moved, and he asked sincerely.
"Don't blame Chen Daoyou, the ancestor of the sect has issued a death order, and we are not allowed to spread it."
After a haha, Di Xiuyuan said with a smile: "Anyway, it's a good thing, we will see it in fifteen years, during this period, Daoyou can always maintain the peak state, don't hurt the foundation, and miss a big opportunity in vain." ”
