Chapter 164: Lost
readx;? Bai Ya carefully examined his merits, and he found that most of the C-level merits were actually from the practice cheats and magic weapons handed over to the sect.

This is also natural, he has stayed in Qingcheng in the past few years, and he has not done a few meritorious tasks. Others worked tirelessly to do tasks in exchange for pills, but he relied on blackmail to make up for the cultivation resources of the Qi Realm and the promotion of the artistic conception.
"Senior Brother Wan, maybe you can talk about the merits of the first and second levels above the merits of the C level?" Bai Ya put down the black book and asked curiously.
"Merit tasks involving the first and second levels generally rarely appear, and once they appear, it is a big event. The middle-aged Taoist priest said meaningfully, "Actually, what Senior Brother Bai did in Di Dao City back then belonged to the second grade, but Qingcheng would not issue this kind of merit task due to the constraints of the Immortal Oath!"
Level C only involves the county government, so sometimes there will be merit tasks, because the county government is vulnerable to the influence of the Green Forest Gang.
But the second level has risen to the city and county, and the influence of the Green Forest Gang is not enough. The events that can affect the city and county are either the government itself that has gone wrong, or it is a large-scale natural disaster.
No matter which one it is, it is difficult for the Xianwu Sect to intervene, even if it is disaster relief, it needs to be led by the government. At most, the Xianwu Sect took out some materials and sent some Danshi healers, such as setting up some porridge sheds and medical houses.
"Senior Brother Wan, since the influence of the first and second levels is too great, why does the sect still set up these two levels of merit tasks?" Bai Ya asked suspiciously.
"Senior Brother Bai, don't forget that this is a time of peace, if it is in a troubled era like the Second Warring States, there will be countless meritorious tasks at the A and B levels!" the middle-aged Taoist priest sighed and explained.
Bai Ya suddenly, indeed, the restraint of the Immortal Fan Oath on the Immortal Martial Sect was mainly in peacetime.
Once the troubled times came, the Xianwu Sect had to intervene in the world on a large scale. Because at that time, only their strength can set things right, end the war as soon as possible, and minimize the losses of the Terrans.
"Senior Brother Wan, does the merit required for the bronze corpse to be promoted to the silver corpse have to be grade C?" Bai Ya asked with a wry smile.
"The Drought Essence Blood given by the Supreme Elder and the renting of the Immortal Demon Realm must be offset with C-level merits, as for the other medicinal materials that feed the copper corpse, there are both C-level and D-level, which have not yet been specifically calculated. ā
The middle-aged Taoist priest smiled and said with relief, "Don't worry, I heard that because of Xu Xianling's incident, there is another senior in the sect who owes you a favor." Although Poor Dao can't tell you who this senior is, he will also say something for you, and the Supreme Elder may reduce the merits required for the Drought Essence Blood. ā
"Doesn't this mean that merit cannot be transferred to others?
Bai Ya knew what was going on in the mouth of the middle-aged Taoist priest, since Qingcheng had established the principle of equal exchange for his disciples, then the so-called saying items would definitely have to pay a price, which was equivalent to someone else helping him out with a part of the merits.
"Yes, merit cannot be transferred to others, and this is also a measure to reduce favoritism. The middle-aged Taoist priest said with a smile.
"But don't forget, the essence and blood produced by the drought are not equal to the public things of the Qingdu Temple. Elder Taishang's own things, as long as the principle of equal exchange is followed, whether it is you or the price paid by that senior, I can't care about it. ā
"What did Senior Brother just say, what is the matter of renting the Immortal Demon Realm?" Bai Ya asked curiously.
"Even if the bronze corpse is swallowed by the Drought Essence Blood, the time required to promote the Silver Corpse is still extremely long, often taking hundreds of years. However, if the environment it is in is in a place of extreme yin, then this time will be greatly shortened, and it will only take two or three years at the earliest. The middle-aged Taoist priest explained.
"There are a few underground caves in Qingcheng that belong to the Extreme Yin Land, but they are definitely not as good as the Immortal Demon Rank Realm, so in order to increase the probability of promotion, it is best to choose the Immortal Demon Rank Realm. ā
"Senior Brother Wan, can you spend merit to enter this Immortal Demon Realm?" Bai Ya's eyes flashed, and he asked cautiously.
"You, hehe, you can't, it's not about merit. The middle-aged Taoist priest smiled and said, "There are several immortal and demon realms in Qingcheng, and some of them are slightly thinner in vitality, which are basically used to cultivate heavenly treasures and raise divine beasts and birds, these places are only a little better than Qingcheng Mountain, and it doesn't matter if you can't enter them."
And some other immortal and demon realms with particularly strong vitality can only be adapted to by innate martial artists, or their own physique is extremely strong. Otherwise, the void will not be replenished, even if ** is not exploded by the vitality, there will be dark wounds left after cultivation. ā
"I see!" Bai Ya now understood why the sect had attached so much importance to him, but he still had never let him enter the Immortal Demon Realm, because those places were not yet for him to go.
Leaving the altar of merit and law, Bai Ya felt a sense of melancholy, most of the materials he had obtained from the Wanqing Cave Mansion had been tossed away.
A congenital martial artist's savings for hundreds of years, and the items that slowly took a few mustard seed bags at the beginning, now there are only two cheats left: Qishan Poison Book and Shrinking Bone **, as well as Zhu Yanzhu, Qingying Sword Pill, and Xiaoye Wolf Treading Cloud Shoes, three magic weapons, and a piece of Divine Eye Paste that is equivalent to Divine Soul Incense.
"I hope Bai Tong can be promoted successfully in the end, otherwise he will lose a lot!" Bai Ya shook his head with a wry smile and walked towards the Lingxi Palace of Jingluo Zhenren.
As he walked, he suddenly noticed that the scenery around him was a little blurry, and a layer of light fog appeared in the mountains and forests. ć
At this time, the time was still early, and it was only nine o'clock in the morning when Bai Ya came out of the altar of merit and law, and the mist carried a hint of the coolness of the autumn morning, and it was extremely fresh on his face.
Bai Ya walked forward along the mountain road, although he couldn't see the scenery in the distance clearly, he didn't pay attention to it, squinted his eyes slightly in the wet mist, and breathed a little more wonderful rhythm, which actually urged the true qi in his body.
The surrounding wet mist seemed to have a spirituality, and as his chest rose and fell, two puffs of white smoke happily rushed in and out between his mouth and nose, like two small fog dragons, as if demonstrating a fist technique.
When Bai Ya woke up, he felt refreshed, and there was a faint coldness in his chest, as if he had drunk a bowl of iced sour plum soup on a hot day.
"Five Elements Fist" Bai Ya muttered in a low voice, knowing that the Five Elements Fist, which had cultivated a lot, had reached the fifth level of martial arts skills.
The Five Elements Fist is not a combat skill, but the Five Elements Fist corresponds to the exercise of the five internal organs in the body, so its improvement is of great benefit to the "training of the intestines", which can shorten the physical training time of the mixed element iron cloth shirt.
"Well, where is this?" After the joy, Bai Ya suddenly found that the surrounding environment was unfamiliar, and he had taken the wrong path along the mountain road.
He couldn't laugh or cry a little, so he had to stop and look around, and took out a piece of Zhong Lingmu from the mustard seed bag. However, after thinking about it, he put Zhong Lingmu back in his arms again, and he didn't want to summon any more Qingcheng disciples patrolling the mountains.
It's a bit embarrassing to get lost in your own land, anyway, it's still on the mountain road, at most it's late to Lingxi Palace.
However, he turned around and walked for a while before he became depressed, he didn't know anything around him, and finally lost his way completely.
"Well, there might be someone there. Bai Ya looked around for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he saw a small pergola on the mountainside.
The pergola was built on the edge of a melon field on the mountainside, and the field was full of round watermelons. Many places in Qingcheng are like spring all year round, and there are still many watermelons in this season.
The terrain here is gentle, and there are verdant terraces everywhere, and he suspects that he has inadvertently stepped out of the range of the Qingcheng Mountain Protection Array and met the mountain people living in the mountains.
Bai Ya quickly walked to the pergola, only to see a middle-aged peasant woman sitting inside, wearing a large bamboo hat on her head, wearing a coarse cloth skirt, and weaving a bamboo carrot.
"Ahem, auntie, eldest sister, where is this, where can I get out of the mountain?" he coughed lightly, attracting the attention of the peasant woman.
But as soon as the peasant woman raised her head, Bai Ya was stunned, the other party seemed to be much younger than what she was wearing, and she looked like a young woman of about thirty. Although she doesn't have heavy makeup, she has an elegant face, and she can be regarded as a beauty.
The only pity is that there is a pupil-shaped cyan birthmark on the forehead, like the third eye of Erlang God, which destroys the overall beauty and looks a little fierce.
"Shaoxia is a disciple of Qingcheng?" The young woman's voice was a little hoarse, and as soon as she spoke, Bai Ya was surprised.
However, he soon came back to his senses, and there were many relatives of cultivators in Qingcheng Mountain, just like those descendants of the Jingluo Zhenren of Lingxi Palace. Maybe the young woman in front of him is also one of them, in this case, it is good news, indicating that he has not walked out of the big array of Qingcheng Mountain.
"Yes, there was a heavy fog before, and I took a fork in the road and strayed into this place, and I ask the eldest sister not to blame. Bai Ya hurriedly smiled and nodded, and hugged her fist at the young woman, "I don't know if the eldest sister knows where the Lingxi Palace is, please give me some guidance, I am grateful!"
"The concubine knows where Lingxi Palace is, but now there is something troubled, I don't know if the young man may help one or two?" the young woman covered her mouth and smiled.
"I don't know what I can do for my eldest sister?" Bai Ya replied after a moment's hesitation.
He estimated that he would go to Lingxi Palace, it must be too late, but it didn't matter if it was a little late.
"That's the case, the eldest brother of the concubine went out to chop wood early in the morning, but he hasn't come back until now, I don't know if he is in trouble, maybe the young man will go to the place where he chops firewood?"
"Okay, I don't know which direction that big brother went?" Bai Ya asked patiently.
"Isn't the young man afraid of trouble?" the young woman's eyes flashed, and she asked with a smile.
"It's not troublesome, I'm fine, but it's better to go and see that big brother first, if something really happens, you can also take a hand." White Cliff shrugged his shoulders and said honestly.
"Well, he often goes to the northwest corner of the peak to chop wood, and you should be able to see him there. The young woman nodded at him, and then she made up the bamboo rose.
Bai Ya felt a little strange, but she didn't say anything, after all, her eldest brother just came back late, and something might not have happened.
