Lingnan Prefecture is located in the south of Chu State, bordering Huzhou, Lingzhou and the southernmost Nanban Prefecture, and is one of the largest states among the thirteen states of Chu State.

Lingnan Prefecture has few mountains and many forests, and the whole state is almost entirely forested, coupled with the perennial sunshine and abundant rain in Lingnan Prefecture, resulting in a perennial humid and hot environment in Lingnan Prefecture. Therefore, there are more demon beasts and elixirs in Lingnan Prefecture than in other states, and the resources for cultivating immortals are very rich.

The first destination Zhang Yifan traveled to was Lingnan Prefecture, this time mainly to buy some golden armor silk, and by the way, to see if he could find the spirit pattern silver sand and the main elixir for refining purple qi dispersion, the purple star flower.

Purple star flowers generally grow in places with abundant sunlight, and can only be seen occasionally in some places in Lingnan Prefecture where there is abundant aura and sunlight. However, the Purple Star Flower of more than four hundred years required to refine the Purple Qi Dispersion is very rare, and it takes some luck to find it.

In fact, even if it is specially cultivated by some sects, purple star flowers of this year are rare, and perhaps they can only be seen in some sparsely populated dangerous places with strong spiritual aura in the wild.

In Lingnan Prefecture, Zhang Yifan also knows a few such dangerous places, he is ready to go to try his luck, and he happens to have some experience, only actual combat will make him progress faster, and maybe there will be another opportunity.

Lingnan Prefecture is the sphere of influence of the Spirit Exorcism Valley, one of the six major sects of the Chu State. It is said that he had encountered two disciples of the Spirit Exorcism Valley in the Two-Headed Tiger Demon Secret Realm before and was hunted down for no reason, and he really had a bad impression of this Spirit Exorcism Valley.

This sect seems to be very hostile to the Burning Sky Valley, and it seems to be related to the battle of strength between the two factions. In the past hundred years, the strength of the Exorcism Valley is at the end of the six major sects, but the territory of Lingnan and Nanban is the top three of the six major sects.

And Burning Sky Valley, as the most powerful sect among the second-rate sects, is actually on par with the Spirit Exorcism Valley in strength. The area occupied by the Burning Sky Valley is only a corner of Huzhou, and it can no longer meet its own development, so it has been striving to enter the list of the six major sects, and then expand the sect's area of influence.

Although the two factions did not tear their faces, they had already been on the same footing, and they had fought in secret several times, each with damage, so Zhang Yifan was attacked by the disciples of the Spirit Exorcism Valley in the two-headed tiger demon secret realm before, which was also tacitly approved by his high-level leaders.

Zhang Yifan entered Lingnan Prefecture and changed into an old Qi refining stage twelve-layer casual cultivation, so his cultivation is not up or down, he looks more sophisticated and slippery, and no one wants to look for him like this, which is a difficult character at first glance.

The scenery of Lingnan Prefecture is completely different from that of Huzhou, although it is early spring at this time, but the trees are already lush and green, very eye-catching, and the pleasant scenery can see Zhang Yifan's mood is comfortable, and some linger.

Zhang Yifan's first stop when he entered Lingnan Prefecture was a place called Aoki City. This place is very special in Lingnan Prefecture, this city is not under the jurisdiction of the Chu court, and the court does not know its existence. This is a city formed by more than a dozen immortal cultivation families of different sizes, and most of the people living in the city are clansmen of these immortal cultivation families.

These immortal cultivation families formed three immortal cultivation sects, namely the True Miao Sect, the Xuanhuo Sect and the Bailing Sect, all of which were affiliated sects of the Spirit Exorcism Valley.

Aoki City is built according to Aoki Lake, Aoki Lake is the largest lake in Chu Province with a radius of nearly 1,000 miles, and there are three spiritual islands in the lake, which is where the three sects of the Immortal Cultivation sect are located.

After hundreds of years of careful development, friendly competition, mutual support and development, the strength of the Zhenmiao Sect, the Xuanhuo Sect and the Bailing Sect has grown greatly, and has developed from the original sect of less than 100 people to a medium-sized immortal cultivation sect of nearly 2,000 people, and they are all the second-rate immortal cultivation sects in the Chu State Immortal Cultivation Realm. Although these three sects are not as good as the Burning Sky Valley alone, the three factions together are a little more than the Burning Sky Valley.

And it is precisely because of the strength of these three immortal cultivation sects that the Aoki City attached to the sect has gradually developed, and now Aoki City has become a famous immortal cultivation resort in the Chu State, showing a prosperous scene.

Another reason for the prosperity of Aoki City is that there is a secret realm and a dangerous place nearby, which is rich in immortal cultivation resources, and there are countless spiritual materials and elixirs that appear in Aoki City every day, bringing a lot of benefits to the three factions.

Zhang Yifan came here for this reason.

After paying a lower grade spirit stone to enter Aoki City, Zhang Yifan relied on a road guide he bought at the city gate to check the situation of some shops in the city, ready to see if there were any items he needed.

Most of the people living in Aoki City are mortals, and they can only live in Aoki City and nearby areas for the rest of their lives, unable to go out, and enjoy a quiet and ordinary life while being bound at the same time, unless they have a spiritual root, they will be in Aoki City for the rest of their lives.

Ah Cheng was an orphan whose parents fled with him, who was only two years old at the time, and died soon after, so he didn't know what his last name was. Ah Cheng survived with the help of some well-wishers, and since he was seven or eight years old, he has relied on doing some guidance and guidance for the monks who entered Aoki City to earn some fragmentary spirit stones to survive, and it has been five years now.

Because Ah Cheng is more clever, he is also familiar with Aoki City, so he lives a fairly moist life. It's just that his heart is looking to the outside world, and he is a little tired of looking at this endless flow of people all day long. Sometimes when he saw those immortal cultivators flying around in the air outside the city, he was very envious in his heart, and he also wanted to become an immortal cultivator.

It's just that he has no money and no power, and he has no way to test whether he is in the spiritual root, and he can't tell him about his life background, and some xenophobic three major sects can't accept him at all.

Ah Cheng can only live like this, and he has never told his friends about these desires in his heart, for fear of being ridiculed.

At this time, he found Zhang Yifan standing on the street and looking, and he was overjoyed, and ran to Zhang Yifan before the others left.

"This old immortal chief, Xiao Min grew up in this Aoki City since he was a child, and he is very familiar with Aoki City, whether the immortal chief needs magic weapons, talismans, spiritual materials, and elixirs, Xiao Min can lead the way and guide one or two, and he only needs to give Xiao Min a spirit stone a day. Ah Cheng said respectfully.

"Hehe, if it's really as you said, I'll give you two spirit stones, if it's false, the old man won't pay a single spirit stone, are you willing?" Zhang Yifan looked at the thin child in front of him and said with a smile, unconsciously a figure appeared in his mind, and a trace of thought floated in his heart.

Ah Cheng pondered for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, just follow the words of the old immortal." I don't know what the old immortal chief wants to know. ”

"Well, let's take a look at the refining materials first, what are the famous spiritual material shops in this Aoki City, you can introduce them. ”

"Okay. Old Immortal Chief, there are a total of five of the most famous spiritual material shops in Aoki City, three of which were opened by the three major sect immortal cultivation families, one was opened by the Shangzong Exorcism Valley, and the fifth was newly opened in recent years, it seems to have been opened by an immortal chief from outside. Ah Cheng told Zhang Yifan everything he knew.

"Well, let's go see which ones are closest to this place. ”

"This place is the closest to the Xuanhuo Sect Lin's spiritual material shop, and the small one will take the immortal to the past. After speaking, Ah Cheng took Zhang Yifan and walked to the tall attic in the distance.

The urban area of Aoki Castle is not small, and coupled with the existence of the ban on air in the city, it took the two of them about a cup of tea to get there by relying on their foot strength. Along the way, Ah Cheng spared no effort to introduce the relevant things of Aoki City, which made Zhang Yifan listen to it with relish, and his good impression of this young man increased a lot.

Curious, Zhang Yifan checked the spiritual roots of Xia Acheng and found that he actually had four spiritual roots, although the qualification for cultivating immortals was not too good, but he could also cultivate immortals.

"It's just that this young man shouldn't know the truth about his spiritual root, so let's help if he has a good character. Zhang Yifan thought in his heart.

"Immortal Chief, this is the Lin family's spiritual material shop opened by the Lin family of the Xuanhuo Sect, with a total of five floors, and the quality of the spiritual materials sold is guaranteed. ”

"Well, let's go in and have a look. Zhang Yifan nodded and walked into the store.

"This senior, welcome to the Lin Spiritual Material Shop, please ask what you need, I can serve you below. A young attendant dressed in the Lin family's costume stepped forward to answer, and secretly winked approvingly at Ah Cheng.

"Well, do you have gold armor silk and spirit pattern silver sand in your store?" Zhang Yiyi asked directly to the point.

The young attendant's face changed when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "The spiritual materials that the seniors need are really precious, and I don't know very well, seniors, please come with me." ”

"Well, lead the way. Little one, you're just waiting down there. Zhang Yifan said to Ah Cheng who was standing aside.

"Okay, Senpai. ”

Zhang Yifan was taken to the fourth floor by the young attendant, and an old man was kneeling on the desk reading a book introducing refining materials, looking at it quietly, and didn't seem to notice the comer.

Zhang Yifan secretly probed with his divine sense, and found that the old man was a monk of the thirteenth layer of the Qi refining period, with a restrained aura, obviously cultivating extraordinary, and he was not at all as weak as he looked on the outside.

"Cough, Lin Lao, a guest is here, and he wants to buy golden armor silk and spirit pattern silver sand, these two spiritual materials are too precious, and the younger generation is not very clear, so..."

"Hmm, the golden armor silk and the spirit pattern silver sand are indeed cherishing spiritual materials, it seems that Daoyou is planning to refine the armor magic weapon. The old man surnamed Lin looked at Zhang Yifan with interest.

The words of the monk surnamed Lin made Zhang Yifan a little surprised, it seems that the other party is also quite proficient in refining weapons, otherwise he would not be able to guess that he was refining armor with only two spiritual materials.

"Hehe, it seems that Daoyou is very profound about refining weapons, and Lao Yu really wants to find someone to refine a self-defense magic weapon. Zhang Yifan said ambiguously, and he didn't want to say more.

"The Lingwen Silver Sand store still had some some some time ago, but unfortunately it was bought a few days ago. There are still some golden armor silk, one or two thousand and one hundred spirit stones, I don't know how much Daoist friends need. When the monk surnamed Lin heard that Zhang Yifan was just looking for someone to refine magic weapons, he immediately had no enthusiasm, and just said in a businesslike manner, which made Zhang Yifan a little crying and laughing, this old man still seems to be a refining idiot.

Zhang Yifan didn't pay too much attention to the change in the attitude of the old man surnamed Lin before and after. Although the golden armor silk sold here is more expensive than what he knows, he doesn't care too much if he can buy it, but he regrets that he missed out on the spirit pattern sand stone.

"Well, the old decay will cost ten taels of gold silk. "Refining the Tiangong Dragon Armor only needs two taels of gold silk, but Zhang Yifan is not sure that he can refine this superb inner armor at one time, and he also wants to keep some for his own use.

"Daoyou want ten taels? There are not so many in this store at present, only five taels. The old man surnamed Lin looked at Zhang Yifan with some surprise, obviously it is definitely not easy to be able to take out tens of thousands of spirit stones to buy spiritual materials at one time.

"Oh, it's all about decay. Zhang Yifan was slightly disappointed in his heart.
