Chen Ping and Minghe continued to chat for a while, and the next day they went to the village for a walk.

Learn a little more.

The village is not very large, but it has a lot of people.

Most of them are Zhuji and Jindan monks, and it may be that the monks of this part of the cultivation are the main force who enter various forests or secret realms to experience and travel.

and then strayed into the Canglan grassland.

Everyone came from different places, and most of the countries and continents Chen Ping had never even heard of it.

As Xiyue said, the outside world is too colorful.

In addition to this, there are even a few mortals in the village.

Chen Ping remembered the tearing feeling he felt when he entered the Ancient Teleportation Formation, and he was very puzzled how a mortal could enter here. After some inquiry, I found out that some teleportation arrays were not so shoddy.

But that's not the main reason.

The main reason is that this village has existed for hundreds of years, and some monks have begun to live and work here in peace and contentment when there is no hope of getting out of the Canglan grassland.

And these small number of mortals are basically the descendants of these monks.

When he first heard that the village had a history of hundreds of years, Chen Ping was quite shocked although he had a certain expectation in his heart.

... After so many years, no one has been able to find a way out of the Canglan grassland?

As for the formation in the central area of the village, there were a few top monks in the middle and late stages of Jindan, such as Brother Jin.

These monks are the ones with the greatest probability of surviving here, and they also control the right to speak here.

This is also the reason why when Brother Jin introduced Chen Ping into the village, he was disappointed after hearing about Chen Ping's cultivation - only in the middle and late stages of Jindan can he play a key role in this wasteland.

Fearing that the stone tower would be vandalized, they occupied the central area and protected it with a formation to prevent outsiders from entering.

And that stone tower seems to be a product left over from the war between humans and demons in ancient times.

In order to find a way out of the Canglan grassland, everyone never gave up.

From time to time, people leave the village, some leave and never return, and some come back after a while.

On the afternoon of the second day after entering the village, someone from the village formation came to register information, mainly some information about cultivation, coming, views on walking out of this grassland, and so on.

Chen Ping took the opportunity to learn more information from them.

Soon after the people from the village left, an old Jindan cultivator hurriedly came to visit, and after a salute, the old cultivator did not leave, and Chen Ping sensed that something seemed to be wrong with him.

He asked:

"Seniors come to the door, there should be something, right?"

The old cultivator smiled:

"The old decay is preparing to break through the first-level realm these days, but there is a lack of a little qi-tonifying pill, Daoist friends are new here, there should be some stock, right?"

"Can I sell some to the old man?"

Chen Ping's regret and said:

"Don't tell you that when you came from the teleportation array, your strength was not good, and you couldn't protect the storage bag, which had already collapsed, and all the things inside were destroyed, and there were no particles left, not to mention things like pills that could be easily destroyed. Hey, it's a good thing that there are still a small number of spirit stones that are not in the storage bag, otherwise it would really not be possible to survive here."

After speaking, he took out the two collapsed storage bags and showed them to Lao Xiu.

As soon as he arrived, this man came to the door the next day to buy pills.

Obviously, I want to beat myself up for a time difference that I am not familiar with the price of pills.

This man is very cunning.

There is a lack of spiritual power here, and it is important to have one top one of the qi tonifying pills.

He also had more than 500 bottles of Qi Gathering Pill on him, which he had bought in Tianyan City half a month ago, but he didn't plan to sell any of them.

No matter how expensive it is.

I don't know how long I'll be trapped here, but the pill is a very important resource.

Lao Xiu looked at the storage bag, glanced at Chen Ping with a sly gaze, and smiled:

"Don't have any other storage bags? If Daoist friends really have it, the old man can buy some pills at a high price, and he will never lose Daoist friends."

"It's really gone, how can there be so many storage bags for the next foundation monk?" Chen Ping smiled bitterly and said.

But his heart was slightly tight.

I'm afraid this old idea is also the idea of many other monks.

It seems that it is better to be more cautious when using your belongings in the future.

"That's a pity." Lao Xiu sighed.

I didn't buy the pill, and Lao Xiu didn't have the mood to talk much, and after a few words, he got up and said goodbye and left.

Chen Ping watched Lao Xiu go away before returning to the cave and closing the door.

'You have to get married as soon as possible.' ，

'It's so unsafe to build a foundation here. ，

'For a short time, you can't go out of the village. This village is not big, and it is difficult to quietly kill a monk in the late stage of foundation building or even Jindan in the village, so the probability of murder in the village should not be large. ，

I'll go out and ask again later, and see how the fighting has been going in the village in the past." ，

In the days that followed, Xiyue spent the rest of her days recovering in the ashram, while Chen Ping often wandered around the village, asking for as much information as he could.

Before Xiyue's injuries recovered, Chen Ping didn't plan to build a foundation rashly.

This is not as good as being in the Endless Forest or the sect, there are many Jindan monks outside, and it is a very dangerous thing for him and Xiyue to enter a state of inability to fight at the same time.

In this environment, Xiyue, the protector, can play a role.

Through a period of inquiry, Chen Ping not only learned about the layout of the village, but also heard about the past battles in the village.

Very little.

This is the same as Chen Ping's guess.

After all, on the surface, everyone is a compatriot who huddles together for warmth, and should not be hostile to each other.

This is also the rule formulated by the group of mid-to-late stage Jindan monks in the formation.

But not necessarily when you're out there.

Occasionally, someone goes out and never comes back.

It is unknown if they left, were attacked by monsters and died, or went to some other potential village.

Or he was taken advantage of by the neighbors he got along with day and night to murder and steal the treasure.

At the same time, I also learned that everyone is currently trying to explore two directions out of the Canglan grassland:

First, some potential ancient formations.

Since there is an ancient formation that can bring them here, then maybe there is an ancient formation that can lead to the outer continent.

It's just that such a formation is hard to find.

Everyone even suspected that some monks had disappeared inexplicably after walking out, and it was possible that they had strayed into the teleportation array and left the Canglan Grassland.

Second, the remains of an original sect in the middle of the grassland.

It is said that there are a lot of monsters there.

Rumors circulated among the villagers that something might be being guarded by the Demon Beast Gate.

Maybe there is a secret to leaving.

These two directions are just everyone's conjectures.

The former is difficult to determine.

There are many monsters outside, and there are some ancient traps left behind, which are easy to kill.

The latter lies in its difficulty.

Decades ago, there were high-ranking monks who rushed into that ruin, desperately encircling and suppressing demon beasts, trying to spy on the secrets in the ruins.

But the demon beast is really not weak.

In addition, these Jindan monks lacked resources such as pills, magic weapons, magic weapons, and runic treasures, and their combat power was greatly reduced.

In the end, it didn't work out.

Neither of these paths can be taken for me now. ，

'Don't care, focus on your own business first. ，

"During this time, Xiyue has not come out, I can take the opportunity to draw some golden armor runes, this kind of runes are very useful in this forest, and if necessary, I can also change spirit stones. ，

Just do it, fortunately, from Xiaozhu at the beginning

Feng brings with him a full set of tools for drawing symbols.

A skimming, a pinch, a vertical ......

……

Drawing symbols is a job that requires the most mental tranquility, and at the same time, it can also promote mental tranquility in turn.

After a month, Chen Ping's distraction and impatience when he first came to this grassland were relieved.

I became a lot calmer.

'You can't be in a hurry, you can't be too impetuous. What's the hurry? ，

Everyone in the village wanted to go out, especially the guys in the formation, who were planning day and night, maybe with more detailed plans. ，

For me, the most important thing at the moment is to settle down in this place first, and then to get married. ，

'One step at a time. ，

If you can't get it, or if you don't get it, then it's all empty talk. ，

Chen Ping drew a talisman one by one, and when the aura on the talisman skin converged, he blew lightly on the talisman and looked at it, perfectly.

He smiled and put it in the storage bag.

Just as he was about to draw another talisman, he suddenly heard the door open outside the quiet room, and knew that it should be Xiyue coming out.

A month is fine?

Chen Ping walked out of the quiet room and saw Xi Yue just bending down to pick up the two formation tokens outside her quiet room.

Compared with a month, Xiyue's aura was much stronger, and her face was not as pale as before.

The domineering feeling of the first monk of the Western Wilderness on his body was faintly revealed.

"Master, how is your recovery?" Walk over.

"Much better." Xiyue actually didn't fully recover, at least only a small half, after all, the injury of the primordial god was not so easy to recover.

Moreover, this time the injury has almost collapsed.

But because this is an unfamiliar environment, she is worried that Chen Ping will not be able to cope with it alone, so once she recovers a little, she can't wait to come out.

"How's it going here?" She asked.

Chen Ping told her all the news he had heard in the past month. After listening to Chen Ping's explanation, she had both sorrow and joy.

The sad thing is that even she can't fly out of the Canglan grassland. The situation in the Canglan Grassland was even more dire than she had learned.

Happily, this village is safe for the time being, and as long as she and Chen Ping don't leave the village, there should be no danger.

This is equivalent to giving her an excellent time to recover her Yuan Shen and Chen Ping's time to marry Dan.

"By the way, what's the situation with Chi Liang? Didn't Master say that the road from the Demon Realm to the Human Realm was completely cut off?" After chatting about the Canglan grassland, Chen Ping asked.

Xiyue said with a stern expression:

"That's what this seat finds incredible. However, the passage has been blocked for thousands of years, and it is reasonable to say that there are loopholes, or maybe the demons have found other ways to the human world."

"But what is certain is that this loophole or other paths are not enough to allow a large number of demon monks to enter the human realm, and they still need to open the confinement. Otherwise, Chi Liang will not be robbed and killed in this seat."

As for who Chi Liang is?

In fact, Xiyue hadn't seen it before, but as one of the donors of the channel confinement, she had read some classics about the demon clan in detail.

I know the situation and appearance of this demon.

"So, the battle between the demons and the human race shouldn't come so soon? At least the passage confinement is still there." Chen Ping bowed.

This gave him a little reassurance about the current situation.

After all, the two daughters-in-law are still in the Western Wilderness.

Although they are all blessed by the sect, if there is really a major event like the Great War of the Human and Demon Century, no one can take care of anyone, and their cultivation is not too high, so it is really a bit dangerous.

But as long as there is peace, they will not have much security problems in the sect.

"It won't be that fast." Xiyue affirmed:

"And this time, Chi Liang was also injured and destroyed one of his horns. I'm afraid he won't be able to assassinate the second imprisoned provider."

"Judging by this seat, he'll probably be lurking again and probing Ben everywhere

As long as this seat does not show up, he probably will not act rashly."

Chen Ping looked at Xiyue.

I could see that there was a trace of anxiety on Xiyue's face, guessing that she wanted to return to Xizhou as soon as possible and convey the news that the demon clan had entered Xizhou.

Chen Ping smiled:

"You've done your best, let the rest be. There are so many dangerous things in this world, can you still take care of everything?"

Xiyue glanced at Chen Ping:

"I'm not worried about that."

"It's just that I've always felt that Chi Liang can come to the human world, will it have something to do with the fact that some monks in the human world should cooperate with each other? Of course, it's just a feeling. If that's the case, I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future."

"Demon cultivators? The Demon Venerable of the Northern Desert?" Chen Ping shrugged his nose and smelled a smell of conspiracy.

Although he was not interested in participating in the grievances and grievances between Xiyue and the demons, he was interested in hearing these secrets.

Learn more and predict more accurately.

It is more timely and accurate to run away and protect yourself.

"Demon Venerable?" Xiyue smiled rarely:

"He won't. That old guy actually doesn't care much about the Demon Sect all these years, but likes to take all the little granddaughters, grandsons, and apprentices everywhere."

"Forget it, don't talk about it, it's all nonsense if you can't get out of the Canglan grassland."

Xiyue paused for a moment, and then said:

"You don't need to worry too much, no matter how much time you don't dare to say, but what this seat can guarantee is that Yu Lingchun will not have any risk of life if she interrupts treatment for one or two decades, and it's a big deal that this seat will extend her treatment time for another few decades in the future."

"Hmm." Chen Ping nodded.

Xiyue shook the control token in her hand: "You arranged these two formations?"

As an excellent formation mage, she knew both sets of formations, and she herself had learned them before.

knew that it was a second-order formation, but the formation in front of her she perceived that the effect might be far more than the second-order.

A lot of details have been fine-tuned.

There were some fine-tuning that even she couldn't understand.

But I feel very superb in the dark.

"yes, somewhat." Chen Ping looked at her cuffs and looked forward to it:

"Did the master bring the formation? Especially for the third-order and fourth-order Spirit Gathering Arrays, the aura here is really not good."

"No, the two offensive and defensive formations I brought were used up against Chi Liang." Xiyue sneered:

"Besides, if you want to take a trip, you will also bring an offensive and defensive array, and no matter how bad it is, you will also bring this psychedelic array, who will have nothing to do with a spirit gathering array?"

As soon as she finished speaking, her smile froze.

I hadn't been paying attention to it just now, but at this moment, I suddenly sensed that there was actually a spirit gathering array in this cave, and the spiritual energy was rapidly gathering from outside the cave to inside the cave.

… I have seen it for a long time... She thought to herself.

couldn't help but glance at Chen Ping again.

Xiyue slowed down and sat down on the stone bench. At such a glance, he suddenly found that Chen Ping was not sitting on a stone bench, but a chair made of rattan wood.

It's a ritual weapon.

A ritual instrument that has the effect of gathering spirits and promoting spiritual practice.

"Isn't it possible that you brought it too?" She asked tentatively.

After asking, I felt so stupid.

The dignified Yuan Ying actually asked such a question.

Who would have a chair inside a storage bag if they're fine?

Impossible.

"yes." Chen Pingdao.

Xiyue: ......

'Impossible,...... The words of inner negation she had just said were still echoing in her mind.

"What's wrong?"

"No... What."

Xiyue took a deep breath, she had been practicing for hundreds of years, and it was the first time she had seen it.

I thought to myself, why don't you bring the futon with you?

But I think that this time it was really earned by Chen Ping, and the aura here is insufficient at present, whether it is the spirit gathering array

It is such a chair ritual weapon, which is very valuable.

"There is a lack of aura here, which is not good for you. Since the village is safe for the time being, it is better for me to practice in retreat for two or three months, when the Yuan Shen will recover seventy-seven eighty-eight, and I can forcibly carry out artificial gathering of spirits with exercises to help you Jindan. How?" Xiyue said.

Can people gather spirits?

So good?

Chen Ping was overjoyed, and the lack of aura was what he was most worried about at the moment.

The current aura level was forcibly raised to the level of 2.5 by him. Although the usual practice is barely enough. But for the knot process, it is still a little weaker.

You must know that when I first went to build the foundation of the foundation pool, the aura concentration there was more than 2.5 levels.

"How many levels can you mention?" Chen Ping asked hurriedly.

"At least double the level. However, the mental and spiritual power consumption of the spell-casting monk is extremely large, and it is impossible to continue to gather spirits for a long time. But it's enough for your critical period."

Double?

That is, the 2.5th level directly reached the 5th order?

Enough, indeed enough.

"Okay, don't worry." Chen Pingxi said.

This master respects people well and is generous.

He loved it.

Of course, it was when she didn't count the amount of spirit wine.

Then he took out the futon from the quiet room and handed it to Xiyue:

"The last time I thought about the futon, the master had already started to take the pill and practice, so I didn't knock on the door to interrupt the master's practice. I'll borrow this futon for you first, and the effect of gathering spirits is not bad."

Xiyue laughed and said:

"Did you really bring a futon? Why don't you bring a bed?"

"I brought it."

"You got the bed?" Xiyue's voice was one degree higher.

"yes."

Xiyue got up and looked at the cold jade bed in Chen Ping's room in disbelief, and took a deep breath.

Can't say a word.

What kind of people are they?

It's kind of convincing.

After half a ring, he said:

"That...... This futon will be borrowed for a while. If nothing else, I'll go and practice first, and if you have something important, just call me at any time."

"Master, wait." Chen Ping's divine sense probed into the storage bag, thought about it, and only took out a pot of Jian Nanchun and threw it to Xiyue:

"There's not much, save some drinks."

Xiyue took the spirit wine and shook it for a moment.

Nameless wine combined with secret methods can restore the original spirit, which is currently the most valuable to her.

"Didn't you say it wasn't?" She looked at her apprentice.

"Brewed in Tianyan City, didn't Senior Sister Guan tell her master?" Chen Ping said indifferently.

"Thank you." Xiyue's heart warmed, and she rarely said thank you.

glanced at Chen Ping's storage bag, swallowed his saliva, and turned around and entered the quiet room.

Chen Ping continued back to his ashram.

Continue drawing.

With the artificial short-term gathering of spirits provided by Xiyue, it can be regarded as solving his last concerns.

At this point, all obstacles were cleared.

This cheap master is not saved in vain!
