Chapter 14: Greed
Lin Yan soon came to the place where the man had said, and saw a small hill standing there, and a cave of the same size had been carved out of it.
Lin Yan glanced at the cave at the top of the hill, but soon there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, his spiritual sense could not pass through the entrance of the cave, but was blocked by something, what was the situation?
"Could it be that there is a formation on this cave entrance?" Lin Yan groaned slightly, the feeling that the spiritual sense transmitted to him just now was somewhat similar to that at the city gate just now.
"Don't be surprised, there are prohibitions at the entrance of the cave, which can exclude spiritual sense, and don't you know that it's rude to use spiritual sense to check others at will, and it's easy to get into trouble. Just as Lin Yan was standing here for a moment, suddenly a middle-aged man with a fat figure and a smile on his face seemed to have seen what he had just done, and then asked out loud.
"A monk at the seventh level of Qi cultivation?" Lin Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, and then saw the other party's cultivation, and after hearing the man's transformation, he secretly said that this was the cave mentioned in the monk's common sense, but it didn't look like it, and then said: "I have inadvertently stepped into the ranks of monks, and I am not clear about some rules! ”
When the fat man heard this, the light in his eyes shone brightly, he glanced at Lin Yan, and said without being salty: "It's also a good opportunity for Daoyou to arrive." ”
Lin Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile on his face remained unchanged and said, "Daoyou has praised it." The fat man waved his hand slightly, and said with a kind expression: "Daoyou is modest, and being able to have this opportunity shows that Daoyou has a deep source of blessings, and it is also destined that Daoyou will go longer in the future." ”
"Then take the auspicious words of the Taoist friend. Lin Yan said with his fists clenched.
"Seeing it, it should be the first time to Juxian City, right?" the man glanced at Lin Yan, and then changed the topic and said.
"Exactly. Lin Yan didn't mean to hide it at all, after all, the other party was also the head snake here, and he couldn't see it anywhere, so there was no point in concealing it, but it might attract the suspicion of the other party.
"Planning to find a place to cultivate?"
Lin Yan nodded slightly.
The man smiled, touched his chin with his right hand, and said with a smile on his face: "That Daoist friend has come to the right place, this is a cultivation center opened by a Jindan power, and it is even more powerful to move a spiritual vein to the ground here. At the same time, those who cultivate here can be taken care of by Heyuan's predecessors, but it is a different matter except for this place. ”
"Heyuan, it seems that the name of the predecessor of the Jindan period. A ray of light flashed in Lin Yan's eyes, and at the same time, he secretly sighed that this was a good deal that would make a profit without losing money.
The man glanced at Lin Yan's expression, and then said happily: "Then let me introduce you here first." There are three levels of cultivation caves here, the first is the lower layer of this hill, the concentration of spiritual energy in it is about three times, and it requires three hundred spirit stones a month, and the second is the middle layer, which is about five times the spiritual energy, and it takes five hundred spirit stones in a month, and as for the top layer of spiritual energy, it needs about ten times, and it needs a thousand spirit stones in a month!"
"Ten times!" Lin Yan was slightly stunned, and at the same time heard this terrifying price, with Gu Xiaozi's wealth, he could only stay in the upper echelons for three months.
The man also seemed to see Lin Yan's surprise, but he was not curious at all, every person who came here for the first time would be surprised when he heard the aura ten times over.
Then the man said loudly: "However, almost all of these upper layers are foundation building cultivators, and there are basically no qi cultivators, one is that the price is too expensive for them, and the other is that the concentration of spiritual energy is too high, and their cultivation is simply unbearable!" He was afraid that Lin Yan would not have the mind to choose the top level, so he immediately reminded him.
"I don't know what layer of cave you are going to use?" The man looked at Lin Yan with a smile on his face, because his body was too fat, when he smiled, those eyes had been squeezed into a thin slit by the fat on his face.
Lin Yan thought for a while, and then made up his mind: "I need a cave mansion on the second floor, and it will take about half a month." ”
"Two hundred and fifty spirit stones. The man looked at him with a smile.
Lin Yan flipped his right hand and took out two hundred and fifty spirit stones and handed them to the man. The man's expression changed slightly, and he looked at the ring on Lin Yan's right hand with a hint of greed in his eyes, but this greed disappeared immediately, not only because the other party was higher than his own cultivation, but also because of his own identity, but ...... Just because you can't do it yourself doesn't mean that others can't.
The man took the spirit stone, then glanced at Lin Yan and said, "It seems that the opportunity of Daoist friends is really not small, even ordinary foundation building monks do not necessarily have the acceptance ring, Daoyou is a qi cultivator actually has it." ”
Lin Yan's expression changed suddenly, his eyes suddenly narrowed and stared at the man, and the momentum on his body surged wildly.
"Don't worry, I don't have any ideas, just remind Daoyou, this thing is too conspicuous. The man's body was slightly cold, and he was instantly photographed by Lin Yan's momentum, and quickly explained.
Lin Yan's eyes opened, and he secretly scolded himself for being careless in his heart, and then clenched his fists and said, "Thank you for the reminder." ”
Then the fat man laughed, demonstrated his gaffe just now, took out a jade plaque and handed it to Lin Yan and said: "Fellow Daoist, there is a ban at the entrance of the cave, and only the person who has this jade plate can enter if the prohibition is activated, so Daoist friends should keep it properly." ”
Lin Yan nodded, took the jade plate, and saw a three-character written on it, and immediately understood that this was probably the number of the cave mansion.
Lin Yan then walked towards the hill.
"Fellow Daoists must remember not to go to other people's caves at will. The man's voice came from behind him.
Lin Yan paused for a moment, then nodded.
The man looked behind Lin Yan, touched his chin with one hand, and a cold light appeared in his eyes: "I really don't know where this kid got the chance, he actually got a gift ring, look at the time he took out the spirit stone just now, there was no hesitation, I'm afraid there are still a lot of spirit stones in the gift ring, this opportunity can make me salivate!"
"But you have to keep it. The man's expression was gloomy, where was the smiling face just now, and all that was left was a gloomy look.
Lin Yan soon came to the second layer that the man said, found the No. 3 Cave Mansion, looked at it, but couldn't see it clearly, showing a slight surprise, and then stretched out his right hand, only halfway through, he felt a resistance from his right hand.
Lin Yan frowned slightly, is this what the man said about the prohibition? Immediately took out the jade plaque and put it towards the entrance of the cave, and suddenly a beam of light shot out.
Suddenly, he saw the contents clearly.
Lin Yan only glanced at it slightly, then walked inside, and then swiped the jade plate in his hand behind him.
It wasn't as small as it looked from the outside, it was about three feet long and wide, and there was nothing in it except a futon.
"It's simple and thorough, but this aura is five times as much as the man said!" Lin Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and then a sneer appeared on his face: "When that person saw this gift ring just now, a trace of greed flashed in his eyes, although he disappeared quickly, and he made a look of caring about himself, but it is difficult to guarantee whether the other party is sincere, in case he fights for any year, he must not be guarded." ”
Lin Yan now understands very well that in this immortal cultivation world, death is always with him, and if he doesn't pay attention to it a little, I'm afraid that he will have to pay a terrible price for his inattention, even including his own life.
"Although I am actually practicing the ninth layer of qi, but I have not reached the point of consummation, and I haven't even touched the threshold of building the foundation, but now I can follow the aura in the cave and push myself to perfection in one fell swoop, as for the man's matter, put it aside for the time being. Lin Yan wanted to play, so he sat cross-legged on the futon.
Time passed day by day, and almost every day the obese man had to look at the No. 3 Cave Mansion where Lin Yan was.
However, the man seemed to be very patient, and he didn't have the slightest irritability for Lin Yan not coming out of the hole, but he would just take a look at it every day.
In this way, fourteen days passed quickly, and there was only one day left before the deadline, but Lin Yan was still practicing penance in the cave, in the environment of five times the aura, Lin Yan suddenly felt that he had been able to feel that layer of barrier, but this barrier was stronger than he imagined, no matter how he impacted, that layer of barrier did not move at all, and there was a great taste of letting you wind from east to west, north and south, and I would not move.
On the same night, Lin Yan suddenly opened and closed his eyes for a long time, and a ray of essence light flashed in his eyes, but soon the ray of essence light disappeared, revealing a helpless look, thinking that he could use this five-fold aura to break through to Zhuji: "Or I am too ideal, if I make such a good breakthrough in Zhuji, there will not be so many low-level monks, besides, I also understand this qualification, it seems that I still need to build Jidan?"
This Tsukidan was also seen by him from the common sense of cultivators, but then he also showed a wry smile, because a Tsukidan usually costs about four or five thousand spirit stones, and with his own qualifications, I am afraid that one will not be able to solve the problem.
"But there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. "Lin Yan can't think about it so much, for now, it's better to take a step and look at a step.
As soon as the time came, Lin Yan left the cave mansion and had no intention of staying. But when Lin Yan left, the fat man found him and said something to him.
"In two days, I am going to hold a small trade fair, and I hope that Taoist friends will be able to come at that time. The man looked at Lin Yan with a smile on his face, earnestly hoping that Lin Yan would be able to go, and handed him a sound transmission jade talisman.
Lin Yan only thought about it for a while, then nodded in agreement, he wanted to see what tricks the other party was playing!
