"Go~"

In the forest, a figure moved rapidly in the jungle, and when it flashed past the side of a large tree, a small pure white sword filled with billowing aura flew out with a 'whoosh'.

"Bang."

There was a soft thud.

Fifteen meters away, a large hole burst into the thick trunk of a large tree.

Chen Ping stepped forward to observe.

The tree was at least a foot in diameter, but the hole pierced directly through the trunk, and you could see the back of the tree at a glance.

The diameter of the hole is not only one finger thick, but at least three fingers in size.

This is clearly the effect of the spill explosion.

'This spiritual power sword, both in terms of strength and explosion effect, has been greatly improved. ’

Chen Ping excitedly tried a few more times.

After more than ten days of practice, his current spiritual power sword is already [spiritual power sword (proficient): 934/1000. 】

It is estimated that in a few days, you will be able to enter the 'mastery' level.

Once he reached the mastery level, it would mean that he had practiced this spell to a level that most monks who practiced this spell could not match.

One more means of attack.

Well?

No, it's a means of preserving life.

......

Chengdongfang City.

Winter is over completely, and spring is quietly coming.

The casual cultivators who were stupid by the cold winter finally breathed a long sigh of relief and began to walk out of the house one after another.

The market became bustling.

"Did you hear that? The team that set off for Qingyun Sect more than twenty days ago had cut off contact with Lianyun City, and there was no news of it. ”

"You're too slow to hear this, aren't you? It is said that it has been broken for several days. It's just that the family has been covering it and not saying it, but how can there be a wall that does not leak? ”

"Who's to say it isn't? It is said that a few days ago, there was news that the Qingyun Sect had become extremely desolate, and even if it was close to the Qingyun Sect's anti-detection area, he still didn't see any monks from the Qingyun Sect appear. ”

"It's said that a second team is going to be formed."

"Hey, I'm afraid the five major families won't be able to control Lianyun City. Haven't you heard, there was a small gang in the dark who ransacked a street in the north of the city, and even the palace killed two monks. ”

"The more chaotic Lianyun City is, the more excited these people are."

"Don't say it, those families themselves are not clean, doesn't it mean that the palace and the Liu mansion have divided the property of a small family."

“……”

Chen Ping curled his neck and squatted in front of his stall, his hands crossed in his cuffs, listening to these casual stall owners sharing the latest news, interjecting from time to time.

Of course, most of what he said was these:

"Yes, yes, what this Taoist friend said is very true."

"Yes, yes, Brother Ben thinks so too."

"Yes, yes, this Taoist friend is high."

“……”

Listening to the chats of the casual cultivators, Chen Ping was also quickly analyzing the current form.

Qingyun Sect is afraid that something has happened... This is also Chen Ping's first instinct.

Lianyun City is more than three hundred miles away from Qingyun Sect, this distance, for Qi Cultivation Realm cultivators, especially in the cold winter, when they still need to pass through endless forests, this is a section of the heavenly moat.

But for the foundation building monks, it may not be too difficult, at least not as dangerous as imagined.

Does the Qingyun Sect have a foundation?

Yes.

Jindan has one.

But in the past few months, the Qingyun Sect has not received any active information.

There are only two possibilities:

1. Qingyun Sect had no intention of contacting Lianyun City and completely abandoned this satellite city.

Second, for some unknown reasons, Qingyun Sect lost the ability to contact Lianyun City.

Both possibilities, either one is very scary.

For Lianyuncheng, it's not good news.

"The chaos in Lianyun City is only inevitable. I'm afraid that it will become more and more rare to have a peaceful birthday in the future. ”

Winter has just passed.

Here we go again.

"This fellow Daoist, how do you sell this copy of "Illustrated Ethereal Continent"?" In front of Chen Ping's stall, a voice came, which brought Chen Ping back to his senses.

On his stall was a copy of "Illustrated Illustration of the Ethereal Continent" on sale, a bargain bought by dozens of taels of gold at the beginning.

It's just a matter of putting it on the stall.

I'm not going to sell, I want to see it myself.

I didn't expect anyone to ask.

Last time I sold "Breeze Nine Swords", no one bought it.

"Ten spirit stones." Chen Ping casually opened his mouth.

The inquiring monk sighed:

"Alas, it's getting more expensive every day, forget it, I'll buy it."

Chen Ping: ???

Bought?

I bought it for a few dozen taels of gold, and now someone buys ten spirit stones when they are sold?

What the hell?

"I mean... Ten spirit stones. Chen Ping added quietly.

The monk who inquired was confused by Chen Ping's expression, and subconsciously put down the register and asked:

"It's a low-grade spirit stone, right?"

Chen Ping: ???

What do you mean?

Could it be that you would also consider ten medium-grade spirit stones?

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Ping knew why it was so expensive.

When I first bought it at the store, the store said that this was the last book and that it was highly scarce.

This kind of register is usually not cared for.

But now it's different.

Lian Yuncheng became more and more insecure, and many monks began to be interested in the outside world. Maybe some bold monks even began to seek the possibility of getting out of Lianyun City.

In this case, such a book such as a geographical record can become very useful.

Useful but scarce, naturally expensive.

Because the ten medium-grade spirit stones were too expensive, the inquiring monk finally left with a look of regret and anger.

Chen Ping took back the register and left.

Ten medium-grade spirit stones are reluctant, it's really stingy.

……

When I came back from Fang City, I just entered the street where the house was located and saw people from Liufu registering from house to house.

After a while, it was Chen Ping's turn to live in the house.

"Chen Daoyou, that's right. Now that spring has begun and the weather is getting warmer, we have decided to rebuild the city wall of Lianyun City after discussion. Every family has a role to contribute, and so do all the families in the West End, and that's a great deal for all of us. Daoist friends to see which days can contribute? I'm registered. A well-mannered monk of Liufu introduced.

Chen Ping was stunned for a moment:

"Repair the walls? That's a lot of work. ”

"Although the repair task is heavy, the demon beasts outside are raging, so it's better than being scared, right?" The polite monk smiled.

"That's it." Chen Ping approved, and then probed: "Qingyun Sect's side...?"

"Ah, fellow Daoists don't need to worry about it, those outside are all rumors. Qingyun Sect will be able to get in touch soon. The courteous monk smiled and interrupted Chen Ping's temptation.

Chen Ping nodded and didn't ask any more.

Obviously, these families are interested in maintaining stability and are reluctant to talk about it.

I don't know how the news from outside came out.

Chen Ping looked at the city wall repair plan given by the courteous monk, and after some exchanges, he asked some details and doubts, and finally chose the last few days.

It's done early.

For him, if he can enjoy a more stable life because of this, this 'business' is definitely worth it.

On the fourth day after registration, the repair of the city wall officially began.
