After the renovation was completed, Yun Duo gave two of the stone puppets to Qingshu, and now these two stone statues are assigned by Qingshu to the elixir garden in the valley to assist the low-level qi cultivators in hoeing and weeding, as well as protecting the elixir garden. Only when it is necessary to repair and replace the spirit stone, the stone statue will return to the Cicada Courtyard.

The use of these two stone statues made the clouds brush in the iris valley with a sense of zài. The entire sect also vaguely knew about this, and for this reason, the monks in the sect had a high opinion of the refining level of the Iris Valley. In disguise, it has promoted the benefits of Bixi Refinery......

The dolls don't have a strong attack, but they have a perverted defense, and the golems that stand on the ground can transfer damage to the earth, and they are so powerful that they can work day and night. Such a stone puppet only needs three lower grade spirit stones to drive, and every three lower grade spirit stones can ensure that the stone puppet will continue to work for a month. At this price, it is really cheap.

The last two metal swordsman puppets were lifted by Yun Duo a year ago, and similarly, his lifting of the ban on swordsman puppets also means that he has completely mastered the skills of this swordsman puppet. Swordsman puppets have the cultivation of Qi Great Perfection, and bringing them to battle together is equivalent to increasing their combat power by two.

Yun Duo's ability to successfully make a swordsman puppet also means that Yun Duo's refining level has now surpassed Bixi and become a well-deserved first person in Iris Valley...... However, there is no rumor about this.

Aoki's gaze lingered on the swordsman puppet for a few more moments. Because Yun Duo made his cultivation appear as the Great Perfection of Qi Refining three years ago, Qingshu no longer urged Yun Duo to continue to work hard in his cultivation, and he also knew that Yun Duo was just staying up for time now, waiting for the right opportunity to build a foundation. During this time, in addition to polishing their minds, monks usually study some auxiliary skills, such as talisman making, refining tools and alchemy, and so on.

Gently pecking the tea in his hand, Qingshu raised his eyes. With a slight flick of his sleeve, a bottle of elixir appeared on the table of the clouds. Qingshu sipped the tea, and explained without raising his eyes: "These are six Tsukidans, and the financial resources of Iris Valley are just like that, I have bothered to collect them everywhere in the past few years, but I have only collected these six Tsukidans." ”

Yun Duo put down the jade slip in his hand. Response: "The sect should allocate to us the ...... of Iris Valley every year"

Qingshu shook his head and interjected: "Don't talk about this, we haven't gotten the offering in Iris Valley for two whole years, I'll go to the head of Qingsong, and the head of Qingsong asked me to go to the Golden Emblem Ancestor, and the Golden Emblem Ancestor asked us to hand over the alchemy room and refining workshop to the sect management, and then assign offerings to my Irirose Valley."

Ha, the Golden Emblem Ancestor has always looked down on us in Iris Valley, and it was a little better in the first few years. These years have become more and more demanding...... The ancestor of the Golden Emblem actually told me that the alchemy refiners of our Iron Furnace Fort and Chillon Fort must pay seventy percent to the sect, and the next three percent will be at our own disposal. ”

Yun Duo asked, "How much do I need to pay?"

Qingshu sighed: "Seven kinds of pills are designated to be delivered, each of which is five thousand pills, and in terms of refining tools, we need to pay one thousand finished products every month, and at the same time, we need to accept the assignment of the sect to refine one hundred pieces of artifacts for the sect." ”

The clouds also sighed: "Then we ...... Can you say yes?"

Aoki nodded: "I can't help it." I have to let you out, and you can deal with this matter. ”

This means that the clouds have lifted their confinement. From now on, you can move freely.

Well, five years have passed, and those who saw the clouds at the beginning have forgotten that at this time, the clouds can be open to activities.

Yun Duo asked again, "What did the other people in the door say?"

"Jinke, Jinshi, and Jinyang, the three ancestors in charge of refining alchemy, are naturally willing, and the Golden Bottle Ancestors of Luoshi Valley helped us say a few words. She was the only one who said a few words for us, but she didn't work alone. ”

After a pause, Qingshu added worriedly: "The sect competition will be held in three months, and we also need to send ten people to participate in the Iris Valley." From refining qi to building a foundation, each level had to send five people. ”

The sect's sect competition once every five years is actually to select and eliminate personnel, according to the rules, the top few monks in the sect competition will be rewarded by the sect, and those who are eliminated in the sect competition will be transferred to the sect's outer sect organization, and will be sent to the sect to perform various sect tasks, and will be marginalized by the sect since then.

After Qingshu said this, the worried eyes of the two turned to the Cicada Tower.

The Cicada Tower is still looming as it was at the beginning, in a fully enclosed state. Jin Chan Zhenjun was in retreat five years ago, and at first she was able to maintain the frequency of communicating with the outside world once a month, but since Jin Chan Zhenjun entered a deep state of retreat three years ago, she has not heard any news from the outside world.

Qingshu continued worriedly: "In our valley, there is no shortage of Qi refining cultivators, but the number of cultivators in the foundation building period is ...... Although there have been eight foundation-building monks in recent years, plus the original dozen or so foundation-building monks, there are more than 20 foundation-building monks as a whole, but the sect is big, and in the final analysis, it is cultivation. In the early stage of foundation building, the middle stage of foundation building, and the late stage of foundation building, they took the stage together to compete, and fools also knew that they would win steadily in the later stage of foundation building.

The monks in the late stage of foundation building in our valley, alas, even if Song Lu and Wei Erniang are counted, there is no late stage of foundation building. Although Chief Song is in the late stage of foundation building, his identity is different, and he will not participate in the sect competition - I can't let him go.

In this way, a few monks in the valley who had just built the foundation took it out, and they were just asking for casualties. The monks in the later stage of foundation building, we can't make up five of them, junior brother, do you have a way?"

The back of Su Zhi outside the door was a little cloudy: "Su Zhi can be counted as one." ”

Qingshu nodded: "Su Zhi, isn't she just building the foundation, let her fight...... Okay, since the junior brother is sure, I will count Su Zhi into account. But just like that, we still have four players left, Bi Xun, Bi Xi, and Bi Ting...... can't fight, their value is not in the sect comparison. ”

After a pause, Qingshu added: "Chief Manager Song has given me a list of two Qi Cultivation Cultivators, which means obviously, the old man in the Iris Valley can only take out two Qi Cultivation Cultivators, and the rest will depend on us to support ourselves." ”

Yun Duo blinked, looked up at the Ming Cicada Tower behind him, took a deep breath, and said: "Then please ask for foreign aid, invite two monks with a strong style to join the Iris Valley, no, you can't just invite two." Invite six late-stage foundation building monks to join the Iris Valley, and select four of them to fight. Practicing Friars...... also select foreign aid, let's rely on foreign aid this time.

Senior brother, don't be afraid to spend money, our Iris Valley is weak, and this sect competition has shown its drawbacks. It's rare to have an excuse to expand your strength, so don't hesitate to pick the good one. Try to choose those monks who are innocent and have no power behind them, not afraid of more, let's expand enough at a time. ”

Aoki thought for a moment and replied, "If you really open your mouth to invite outsiders...... I've long liked the two late-stage monks, but what about the old people in the valley? ”

"Whoever is against it, then let him fight". The clouds smiled.

"Oh, in the past two years, our Iris Valley has developed very well, if you really want to speak, you can invite a few good foreign aids, but what kind of price can make the monks in the late stage of foundation building join......?

"Then promise them", the cloud interrupted Aoki, pausing for a moment. He smiled and asked rhetorically, "In this case, can we have any other choice?"

Aoki nodded: "Oh." Also, in this case, we really have no other choice, but Zhuji Dan and Jiejin Dan are very expensive, if we take out four Zhuji Dan and Jiejin Dan at once to lure foreign aid, the financial resources of Iriluo Valley will be exposed in front of everyone. ”

"How's Biting?" "Yun Duo suddenly asked Biting, who had the worst sense of storage.

Qingshu sighed: "Biting is the Three Spirit Root. He built the foundation in his thirties, thinking that he was also a generation of talents in the sect back then, but unfortunately, he was ostracized by others and injured his meridians in a mission. It then took him thirty years to repair the damaged meridians...... Now he has been polishing for forty years, but he is still a little short of the middle stage of the foundation. ”

Yun Duo nodded: "After the big competition of the sect, Bixi Biliu will immediately tie the Dan, if the four foreign aid we selected also marry the Dan at the same time, the Iris Valley will have seven Jindan monks at once, in this way, the power in the valley is not weak, then, what are we afraid of." ”

Aoki thought for a long time, nodded and said, "If you plan it like this...... My original plan is to be corrected, and the foundation building monk will not mention it for the time being, because it is still unknown whether he can open the second layer of the secret realm, so we will focus on the qi refining period first. We're looking for the strongest Qi Refining Stage cultivator......"

After speaking, Qingshu drank the tea in his hand in one gulp, then put the teacup on the table, and asked, "In this case, how do you plan to choose the monk in the foundation building period, does the junior brother have any ideas?"

Yun Duo asked casually: "What are the plans of the sect for this sect competition?"

Qingshu rubbed his head and replied: "This sect election is different from the past, this election is a secret screening once in fifty years...... Of course, it's only been thirty-five years since the last time the secret realm was opened. This time, the sect plans to select the best ten Qi refining level cultivators to enter the Vortex Heaven Secret Realm to cultivate, and see if they can open the second layer of the Foundation Building Secret Realm.

Senior brother, every time the Spiral Heaven Secret Realm is open for a year, is it interesting for the little junior brother to go inside? If you want to go there, then I will leave you a place. ”

Yun Duo suddenly skipped this topic and asked, "How is the situation outside?"

Qingshu shook his head and replied: "Fang Cun Mountain, Danxia Sect and Huasheng Temple have joined forces, and they have already made a mess with demon beasts, and I heard that even Hehuan Dao also participated in the war some time ago. It is reported that Fangcun Mountain has recently fallen another Yuan Baby, and a great Bodhi of Huasheng Temple has passed away...... Fortunately, we withdrew early, and now, only we can stay out of the five major sects. ”

It is said that the practice method of Huasheng Temple is a bit similar to the Tianzhu Buddhism in the impression of Yunduo, and their title for practitioners is different from that of Daomen, and the so-called Great Bodhi in Huasheng Temple is equivalent to Yuanying Zhenjun in Daomen.

Danxia Sect is one of the five major sects known for its alchemy, and now on this continent, only two seven-rank alchemists are in Danxia Sect.

Now, the two sects that participated in the war have fallen to the Yuanying Monk, and the Dudanxia Sect does not sound like there are any major casualties, which is not to say that the Danxia Sect is particularly bullish, but because this sect never charges ahead, they have always liked to hide behind other sects, provide logistical support to those who charge, and reap some war dividends by the way.

As for Hehuan Dao, it is estimated that he has just joined the war, so there is no damage...... But why did Hehuan Dao join the war? Was it just the temptation of treasures?

Yun Duo decided: The relics he got would not be said if he was killed.

"In the sect competition, the top ten Qi refining level cultivators are rewarded for entering the Vortex Heaven Secret Realm, could it be that the foundation building period monks have done it in vain?" Yun Duo asked with a pretended ignorance.

According to Jin Xiang Zhenjun's memory, these five sects, which are called the five major sects, actually have their own secret realms.

And the so-called secret realm. In fact, more than 400,000 years ago, people of insight from various sects felt that the spiritual veins on the continent were gradually drying up, the spiritual energy in the air was gradually thinning, many spiritual herbs and elixirs were even more extinct or difficult to find, and the demon beast forest was becoming more and more dangerous, and organizing a treasure exploration activity was becoming more and more expensive...... Thereupon. They teamed up to seal several secret realms.

It is said that some of these secret realms are open once every 50 years, some once every hundreds of years, and some take thousands of years to open. The purpose of this is to preserve the precious medicine and prevent human extermination extraction.

Later, these secret realms were controlled by large sects, and some even simply named their own sects after secret realms, such as Xuantianmen and Fangcun Mountain.

The secret realm of the Xuantian Gate is actually a three-fold Sumeru realm. Thereinto. The secret realm for qi practitioners is opened once every fifty years, and the qi practitioners who enter the secret realm must go all the way to the end, and then open the portal to the next layer of the foundation building secret realm, at this time, the second layer of the secret realm that houses the foundation building period monks will be opened.

It is said that only Qi cultivators can walk in the first layer of the secret realm, and if there is a monk who temporarily builds a foundation in it, they will be teleported to the next layer by the secret realm immediately. This kind of teleportation is not transmitted through the guò refining layer portal. Therefore, even if this monk reaches the second floor. Other monks can't enter the second layer of the secret realm, and the monk who enters the second layer has to face the demon beasts of the entire foundation building secret realm alone......

Similarly, after the Foundation Building Stage Monk clears the Foundation Building Secret Realm, he will open the next layer of the portal level, and the third level facing the Jindan Stage Monk can only be opened......

Reputedly. It is not easy to clear the customs in the secret realm of each layer, because there are also some demon beast species that were cherished tens of thousands of years ago in the secret realm, although these demon beasts advance slowly, when they advance, they will automatically ascend to the next layer. However, they have been staying in the secret realm where the aura is rich in cultivation, they have evolved in the secret realm for tens of thousands of years, and they have seen the methods of one generation after another of qi refining cultivators, so their cunning and difficulty far exceed that of human cultivators.

It is said that each of these three layers of the secret realm has some restrictions, if the foundation building period monk disguises himself as a qi cultivation monk to enter the first layer of the secret realm, if he does not unlock his own ban, he can only use the skills of the qi refining period monk in the qi refining secret realm, and in this layer of qi refining secret territory, the living spirit beasts and elixirs are favored by qi refining monks, and they are not of great use to foundation building monks.

But if this person breaks the ban and kills all directions in the secret realm as if relying on his own cultivation, then after he presents his foundation building cultivation, he will immediately be probed into the next layer by the Qi Refining Secret Realm, and face the demon beasts of the entire Foundation Building Secret Realm alone...... Well, after the clouds scavenged Jin Xiang Zhenjun's memory, he felt that the setting of the Spiral Heaven Secret Realm was very funny. It seems that the first people to set up the secret realm have already thought of the cheating methods that the younger generations may use, so they set up many traps to deal with those who want to be opportunistic, so there has been a consensus in the door for many years: if you want to steal chickens in the secret realm, you will die ugly.

Therefore, although the sect Dabi is full of various unspoken rules, it cannot be cheated in the Spiral Heaven Secret Realm, which makes those who want to enter the secret realm must have enough self-confidence......

Qingshu's introduction to the secret realm Feng Qingjiyue, he briefly introduced the cultivation restrictions of the Xuantian Secret Realm, and then said: "The area in the Xuantian Secret Realm is vast, and the terrain inside changes at any time, so there is no consistent ......map of the sect so far."

Well, the Xuantian Secret Realm was not built by the predecessors of the Xuantian Gate, and now this Xuantian Gate was founded by a group of scattered cultivators 150,000 years ago, after this group of scattered cultivators seized the Xuantian Secret Realm, they began to call themselves Xuantian Gate, and the sect that originally held the Xuantian Gate has disappeared.

The history of exploring the secret realm of Xuantian Gate is only more than 100,000 years, because the terrain of the secret realm is always changing, so this secret realm is named after "Xuan" - the earliest secret realm was called Xuanzhao Gate. When the Xuanzhao Gate was destroyed, the elders of the gate destroyed most of the classics, so that the origin and origin of the secret realm became a mystery.

"Of course, every time the secret realm is opened, there are fifty years, fifty years, even in the outside world, there are mountains and rivers that change colors, and when rivers change lanes, let alone the Sumeru realm under the blessing of spells......" Qingshu was still softly introducing the characteristics of the secret realm, of course the clouds could not be noticed, he actually knew very well the one in the secret realm. So he pretended to be interested and listened.

"It is extremely difficult to find the gateway to open the second level in such a vast and ever-changing secret realm in a year's time. Now that the second layer of the Spiral Heaven Gate Secret Realm has not been opened for more than two hundred and fifty years, I guess the sect wants to fight this time and try its best to get through the second and third layers of the Spiral Heaven Secret Realm.

You know, now that the four sects are involved in the conflict with the Demon Beast Forest, our sect must have more monks above the foundation building period. ”

Qingshu paused slightly, and added: "The two-flavor herbs for refining Zhuji Dan, except for growing in the Spiral Heaven Secret Realm, are rarely seen in the outside world, and they are found in the Demon Beast Jungle, but we can't get them." Other sects also grow in the secret realm, but we don't get ...... either."

Aoki didn't continue...... Well, Yun Duo felt that he had been entangled in this issue for too long, and he waved his hand: "In this case, Su Zhi will not participate in the war, our Iris Valley must keep a low profile now, don't fight for the first place in this sect election, as long as it doesn't fall to the end." ”

Aoki shook his head slightly: "This ...... Senior brother, the four major sects are now in full swing in the demon beast layer forest, and it is said that the human head has hit the pig's brain, when will this war affect us, it is really difficult to determine......

In this case, the prices of all kinds of pills have risen together, and it is very difficult to buy Zhuji Dan now, and in the situation of Iris Valley, the sect will not assign it to our Zhuji Dan and Jiejin Dan......

Bixi and Biliu's subordinates are a special case, not everyone has their kind of luck, if we don't let our subordinates participate in the sect competition, and don't win in the sect competition, I'm afraid I'll ......" (to be continued......) R1292
