Liuyun Mountain Range, the outer gate of the Shuiyuan Sect.

"Li Daoyou, I don't know if the sect has summoned us this time, but what's the matter?"

"I heard that it's for the opening of the Northern Regions..."

"My Shuiyuan Sect has always been a disciple who has not yet reached the late stage of Qi cultivation before the age of forty, and will send them down the mountain on their own to find a livelihood, but this time, the three major sects of my Dayu Kingdom have joined forces and are preparing to go to the Northern Regions to open up the wasteland, so that the sect is ready to give those disciples who have reached the age of forty and have not yet reached the late stage of Qi cultivation a chance."

"As long as the disciples who voluntarily go to the Northern Regions to help the sect expand its territory, in addition to a one-time reward of one hundred spirit stones, the sect will also subsidize thirty spirit stones every year."

"And such good things..."

As soon as the monk surnamed Li finished speaking, many people in the crowd were shocked and looked like they were about to move.

"Deng Daoyou, if I'm not mistaken, Daoyou is thirty-nine this year, right?"

"This time the Northern Regions opened up the wasteland, do you want to go with a team under you? ...”

"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't like to fight by nature, so I won't go to join in the fun this time about the opening of the Northern Regions.

In the crowd, a middle-aged monk with a thin body and a white beard only smiled faintly and calmly in the face of the invitation of his fellow disciples.

"That's a shame..."

After being rejected by Deng Qi, the monk surnamed Huang was not angry, but just looked regretful.

He still knows something about this Deng Daoyou, who is a well-known ascetic.

Legend has it that since he entered the Shuiyuan Sect more than ten years ago, except for the necessary sect tasks, he usually doesn't go out at all, and he has been practicing hard behind closed doors wholeheartedly.

Although some admire this kind of ascetic attitude, but the monk surnamed Huang does not agree with this kind of cultivation method, the world of cultivating immortals has always been cruel, and the qualifications are not good, if you don't rely on the accumulation of resources, no matter how hard you cultivate, it will be a bamboo basket after all.

Faced with the regretful attitude of the monk surnamed Huang, Deng Qi just smiled indifferently.

Having traveled to this world for more than 20 years, he has an extremely deep understanding of the cruelty of the immortal cultivation world.

In his opinion, what is the purpose of cultivating immortals, and what is the purpose of immortality.

Isn't it all about enjoying life?

If you give up your life for a little resource, it's not worth it.

The subsidy of the one hundred spirit stones and thirty spirit stones per Chinese New Year's Eve of the Water Yuan Sect is really so easy to get.

The Northern Regions is a notoriously wild land, rarely inhabited, among which there are countless demon beasts and poisonous barriers, the degree of danger can be imagined, the heavy reward offered by this Shui Yuan Sect is just to squeeze the last bit of residual value of these outer disciples who have no cultivation potential.

In fact, there are not a few people who understand this truth, but under the heavy reward, there will be brave men, and there are really a lot of these hundred spirit stones, and there are really not a few outer disciples who are willing to sign up.

For all this, Deng Qi just looked at it, and was not ready to step forward to join in the fun.

After a while, until the crowd gradually dispersed, Deng Qi blended in the crowd and slowly returned to his wooden house.

......

After packing up his few belongings, counting the number of spirit stones in the storage bag, and looking at the sunset outside the window, Deng Qi couldn't help but sigh leisurely.

Since crossing over to this legendary world of immortal cultivation more than 20 years ago and embarking on the path of cultivation, Deng Qi is also full of confidence in himself, although he does not have the legendary golden finger, he is not discouraged.

It's just that the casual cultivation life makes him tired of looking for cultivation resources every day, and without the support of spirit stones, even the major Xiuxianfang cities are uninhabitable.

finally entered the Shui Yuan Sect, but the not outstanding spiritual root qualification gave him a heavy blow.

In this regard, although Deng Qi was disappointed, he was helpless.

However, immortal cultivators are also human beings, and they also have seven emotions and six desires, what is the purpose of cultivating immortals desperately, not to live a good life.

Since you are destined to not be immortal, it is better to enjoy the rest of your life.

With his sixfold cultivation of qi cultivation, put it in the casual cultivation, it can be regarded as the existence of the middle and upper class, if he is willing to go to the mundane world to be a rich man, it is not proper, if he is willing, it is even easier to mix a guest in those mundane dynasties.

However, Deng Qi was not prepared for this, after all, the aura in the mortal land was too thin, and if he stayed in that kind of place for a long time without the replenishment of spirit stones, there would be a risk of regression in his cultivation.

It was Deng Qi who was preparing to go to Yuhefang within the jurisdiction of this Shui Yuan Sect.

He had already planned for this matter, and since he found out that he probably wouldn't be able to break through to the late stage of Qi cultivation before the age of forty, Deng Qi had actually already thought about the way back.

Although this Jade River Fang is at the border of the Shui Yuan Sect's sphere of influence, it is a Fang Market jointly managed by the Shui Yuan Sect and the Imperial Beast Sect, but compared to other Fang Markets within the Shui Yuan Sect's sphere of influence, it is the most advantageous place for aura, and the monthly cost of renting it is not higher than that of other Fang Cities.

Early the next morning, the sky turned white.

Deng Qi packed up his salute, and after going to the deacon of the outer gate of the Shuiyuan Sect for a simple handover, he set up the Wind Resisting Technique and quietly headed towards the outside of the Liuyun Mountain Range.

Although he has lived in this Shui Yuan Sect for more than ten years, Deng Qi is not reluctant to leave this place, but is greatly relieved.

After all, the deceit of the world of cultivating immortals is more intense than the world, although he is in the land of the sect, but most of Deng Qi is actually living in fear, for fear of offending some monks with advanced cultivation, in the past ten years, his neighbors have changed batch after batch, as for where those missing neighbors went, naturally there is no need to think about it.

......

Three days later, the upper reaches of the Heihe River Basin.

Looking at the entrance of Yuhefang City that was close at hand, Deng Qi breathed a sigh of relief, quietly put the lightning strike charm that was always held in the palm of his hand into the storage bag, paid a spirit stone at the patrol office, passed through the maze, and entered the Fang City.

"This senior, may I ask if it's the first time I've come to this Yuhefang, but I need a kid to guide the senior..."

As soon as he entered Yuhefang, a crisp voice sounded beside Deng Qi.

"No need, I often come to this Yuhe Fang."

Looking at the young man dressed as a small guy in front of him, Deng Qi was expressionless and indifferent.

Although he only needs a spirit crystal to guide the way, but now that he has left Shui Yuanzong, he has no stable source of income, and he can save a little bit, after all, he has been frugal in Shui Yuanzong for more than ten years, and he has only saved more than a hundred spirit stones, so he really has no spare money.

In the face of Deng Qi's refusal, although the little guy was disappointed, he didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction, and was ready to turn around and leave with a smile on his face.

"Wait..."

Suddenly, Deng Qi remembered that he had come to settle in Yuhefang this time, but it was not the past to buy cultivation materials, and there were indeed many aspects that he was not very familiar with.

"What did the seniors command?"

was suddenly stopped by Deng Qi, and the little guy suddenly turned around with a look of surprise, his eyes full of anticipation.
