After planning the direction of the future, Cheng Ling left the Famous Sword Academy. If you want to find out the traces of Jian Yinghao and the others, the easiest way is to contact the monks of the seven major forces in the south.

Back then, he practiced in the Famous Sword Academy, and there were very few opportunities to go out, and there were not many people who knew him from the major forces in the south, so there was a lot less trouble, and he didn't need to change his appearance, just use his own appearance to find out the news.

The southern region is sparsely populated, and the major forces and sects are all in the forest of the forest. However, there are exceptions, the southern monks always have to communicate with each other, the flow of goods, the transfer of resources, without a specific place is definitely not possible.

Thousands of miles to the south of the 100,000 mountains, there is such a place, called Xiangcheng. Xiangcheng is the largest city in the south, covering an extremely wide area, which is not much better than the Yujing City, but the prosperity is far from the Yujing City.

It took three days to perform the swordsmanship, and Cheng Ling came to Xiangcheng. The city wall of Xiangcheng is very high, five zhang, but the city was not built for a long time, only hundreds of years, and there is no sense of heaviness of history. Outside the city, monks shuttled back and forth in twos and threes, very busy.

When Cheng Ling walked to the gate of the city, he was greeted by a guard guarding the city. His divine sense swept away, and he bowed down and said: "This senior, please, this is the boundary of Xiangcheng, dare to ask you whether you are resting or living?"

In the southern region, the strongest monks of the seven major forces are only in the Tribulation Period. With Cheng Ling's current cultivation, he is already standing in the ranks of senior monks, and the guards guarding the city can't see through his cultivation, so they are naturally very polite and respectful, and they dare not offend easily.

Cheng Ling asked: "Is there any good place to go, can you introduce it on your behalf!"

The guard said, "If the seniors are just resting temporarily, they only need to pay the entrance fee of 100,000 high-grade spirit stones. However, if you want to live for a long time, you need to apply for a permanent residence token. ”

The entrance fee of 100,000 high-grade spirit stones is almost the same as that of Yujing City, but the southern monks have always been rich, and such prices are acceptable. Cheng Ling thought that if the Famous Sword Academy could be reborn, maybe he would have to come here often, so he asked, "How to handle the permanent residence token?"

"That's right, Xiangcheng's permanent residence token is divided into wood, copper, silver, gold, etc., the wooden token can live for one year, charging one million high-grade spirit stones, the copper token can live for ten years, charging five million high-grade spirit stones, and the silver token can live for a hundred years, charging 10 million high-grade spirit stones. ”

"As for the gold token, the fee is 20 million high-grade spirit stones, and the seniors can live as long as they want, and there will also be a cultivation cave in the city, and all the consumption can be discounted by 20%, which is very cost-effective!"

Cheng Ling was shocked in his heart, the fee for this permanent residence token is not low! There are 20 million gold tokens, and there are several million monks in Xiangcheng, and it is conservatively estimated that tens of thousands of monks have gold tokens, so that the income of the token alone is more than 20 billion, and the south is rich.

He groaned a little, then took out 20 million spirit stones from the ring and said, "That's it, I'll apply for a gold token, here are 20 million spirit stones!"

The guard was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "Thank you, senior! There is a detailed map of Xiangcheng in the token, and you can find anything you need to follow the map drawn." ”

As a guard guarding the city, it is recommended that the monk buy the token, and naturally there will be a corresponding commission, which is not a problem at all.

Cheng Ling nodded slightly, took the gold medal and walked into the city.

When you come to the city, you can see all kinds of shops on the long street, and monks are shuttling in twos and threes

Among the shops, it is very lively.

The consciousness swept into the gold medal, and a pattern appeared in his mind. After observing for a while, I memorized the map in my heart and walked towards Dongcheng District.

Dongcheng District is a place where foreign monks rent cave mansions. According to the introduction of the guards guarding the city, he could own a cave mansion with a gold medal in hand, so he decided to stay for the time being, looking for an opportunity to find out the traces of Jian Yinghao and others.

When I came to the rental office, I took out the gold medal, and I was greeted by a monk who received him.

"Seniors, but you want to choose the cave house where you live?"

"Yes, what is there to introduce!"

"Senior, please see, here is a map of the Dongfu area. Each of the caves in our Xiangcheng is a mustard seed space, and the predecessors have gold medals, and they can choose the cave with the strongest aura as their permanent residence. ”

Cheng Ling raised his eyes and saw a picture hanging in the room, and the dots on the picture indicated the direction of the cave mansion. There are many red spots, and a large number of them are green.

The monk who received him explained, "Senior, please see, the caves with green dots are all vacant, and you can choose any one of them. ”

Cheng Ling nodded and randomly chose one of them. The monk made a few duels in the gold medal, and changed the light of the cave he had chosen to red, and then handed the gold medal back respectfully.

Cheng Ling took it casually and asked, "Little friend, is there any good place to go in Xiangcheng, help introduce it!"

The monk said: "There are many interesting places in Xiangcheng, there are many fairy breath buildings, taverns, teahouses, and trading halls, which have all the materials and treasures, if the seniors want to earn some spirit stones, you can also go to the task hall to see, there are many monks who issue tasks." ”

Cheng Ling asked, "Yes, if you want to find out any news, what is there to introduce?"

"The best place to inquire about the news is in the restaurant and the teahouse, where some monks will talk freely about the monasticism when they have their spare time. ”

Cheng Ling nodded, asked some precautions in the city, and then left.

I came to the cave house I chose, and walked in. Inside the cave is a mustard seed space, but it is very wide. The alchemy room, refining room, talisman room, cultivation room, rest room, etc. are very well prepared, and at the back of the cave, there is also a medicine garden within a radius of ten miles, which is convenient for monks to cultivate herbs.

Cheng Ling nodded with satisfaction, this cave house is very much in line with his heart. After turning around, I came to the lounge, sat down cross-legged, and planned my next move.

There is a mission hall in Xiangcheng, but unfortunately the Sword Heroes and the Famous Sword Academy are taboo, how to make others not doubt their intentions to find them, this is really a headache.

In view of this, he came up with the idea of establishing an intelligence system, because the Canglan Continent is so vast and the flow of information is not smooth, and if a unified information channel can be established, it will be much easier to act in the future.

Another point is that the south is a land of abundance, and the population is very sparse, which is far less fierce than the competition in other directions. If you can establish a stronghold of trade circulation in Xiangcheng, there will be no circulation of resources from the Xiangxiang Sword Sect and the Famous Sword Academy in the future, and you will be able to create an additional trade route.

A few years ago, Song and Yuan were instructed to establish the Southern Trade Road, but because of the obstruction of the Seven Great Forces and the Famous Sword Academy, it finally ended without a problem. The pressure of the seven major forces is a factor, and Song Yuan's cultivation is too low, which is also the key to it.

It's a pity that I'm alone, if I want to build

To establish such an organization, it is not a small number of people who need manpower. After thinking about it for a long time, there was no suitable candidate for a while, and finally I had to give up. As soon as you arrive today, let's rest for a day and go out tomorrow to find out the news!

After resting for the night, he restored the mental power consumed by the sword mastery. The next day, he left the cave mansion, intending to go to the trading hall first.

The days in Xiangcheng may take a long time, and I can't find out the news of Jian Yinghao and others, so I can improve my cultivation. After entering the peak of the Tribulation, although there are immortal crystal fragments to assist in cultivation, the further back you go, the slower your cultivation will improve, and without some rare heavenly and earthly treasures, it is difficult to break through the shackles of the Tribulation Period.

Another point is that in the advanced Mahayana period, you need to go through the Nine Heavenly Tribulations, and you also need to make some corresponding preparations.

When I came to the trading hall, there were a lot of people inside, all of whom were at the counter asking about prices or transactions. Walking around those counters, I found that there were a lot of herbs and materials sold in these counters, but there were very few finished pills and ritual utensils for sale.

The inheritance of various auxiliary means in the Canglan Continent has been lost a lot, even in the Yujing City, there are very few pills and magic weapons above the seventh grade, and it is even more precious to come here. He had seen it before, just an ordinary top-grade sword weapon, and the selling price had reached more than five billion top-grade spirit stones, which was several times that of the Jade Capital City.

As soon as I thought of this, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, the refining tool itself would not be, but the alchemy was simple. As long as you can refine a high-quality pill by yourself, and then find a way to ask someone to find out the news, it is better than going around blindly.

Just do it, the trading hall is not a good place to post a mission, and if you want to find out the news, it is best to go to the mission hall.

He left the trading hall and walked towards the mission hall.

The two places are very close to each other, and before tea time, they enter the mission hall. There are more people in the main hall, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going, some to hand over tasks, and some to see if there are suitable tasks in front of the images of the main hall.

Cheng Ling's eyes swept and he saw that there were many tasks for purchasing pills on the video. He secretly remembered that many of them were purchased from more than seven grades of pills. Presumably, the price in the trading hall is too high, or there is no such elixir for sale at all.

The southern region is blessed with countless herb ores, but there is a lack of corresponding Dan Dao Grandmasters and Refining Masters, this time, he is finally useful.

Turning around and grabbing a monk who was in a hurry, he couldn't help but ask, "Daoist friend, I'm invited, I came to Xiangcheng at the beginning of the next year, and I don't know how to issue a task on it?"

The monk was in a hurry to do, and was suddenly stopped by Cheng Ling, and was about to attack, when his consciousness swept away, he couldn't see the other party's cultivation, and hurriedly took back the insulting words that came out.

After Cheng Ling asked, he said: "It's very simple for you to release a task, have you seen those monks under the image card? They are specifically responsible for issuing tasks, I don't know what kind of tasks the seniors want to distribute, and what kind of reward they plan to come up with?"

In the last two sentences, he casually asked, the other party's cultivation is higher than his own, so he must always be humble.

Cheng Ling said casually: "I want to find someone, the reward is a Aiki Pill!"

"What!" The monk was startled and almost jumped up, the Aiki Pill is an auxiliary pill for the distracted monk to impact the merger period, with such an elixir, the success rate of breaking through the realm is enough to increase by fifty percent, and it is simply a priceless treasure in the southern region where the Dan Master is lacking!
