Chapter 293 Iron Nine (for subscription)
"The matter about the Qingmu sect... don't tell me, don't I know?"
Fang Xi controlled the spiritual weapon, first went to the warehouse to collect a batch of materials for refining second-order talismans with the task jade slips, and then flew all the way back to the green bamboo forest, laughing to herself.
Even though he didn't pay much attention to it, he had already been clear about the internal news of the Cyanwood Sect under the occasional glance of Jindan's spiritual sense.
‘In today’s Cyanwood Sect, the news of Lu Qing’s patriarch’s death is gradually spreading...Although peace has been restored with Yue and Wu, there are undercurrents surging inside...’
"The Cyanwood Sect occupies the best spiritual veins and several spiritual stone mines in the Mu Kingdom, and they are all coveted now... Although Lu Qing signed peace treaties with the two major Jindan Sects before his death, within the mainland, the Cyanwood Sect is also holding The Cyanwood Forest is more than enough, but there are not enough manpower to protect the Lingshi Mine, Square City, and Spiritual Medicine Garden. '
‘Recently, there have been frequent incidents of robbery and harassment...It seems that there are foundation-building forces behind the scenes...'
‘Even the foundation-building gangs of Yue and Wu were bewitched and entered Mu to make trouble…’
‘These are actually conspiracies against the Cyanwood Sect... If the Cyanwood Sect calms down, slowly shrinks, and then squeezes out a golden pill, even if it is a fake pill, everything will return to its former glory. If it doesn’t work, I’m afraid...’
‘Old Taoist Qian’s expression is not good, probably because a monk in the previous sect who had completed the foundation establishment failed to forcibly attack the alchemy...’
‘It is said that in order to put all her eggs in one basket, the girl surnamed Lei, Zhuji, used several secret techniques to increase the probability of forming alchemy one after another…after failing, she just sat down and died…’
'The old man Qian is a good person, and he really does things after receiving the Lingshi... Now that the manpower is already relatively tight, it is reasonable to send other tasks... From this point of view, maybe Zheng Tie has some face in it? '
Fang Xi returned to the Green Bamboo Forest, no matter how dressed she was, Zheng Shan, who was about to stick up to pay her respects, went directly into the cave, and then closed the gate of the cave.
Seeing this scene, Zheng Shan couldn't help biting her lip bitterly...
…
Four years later.
Fang Xi silently celebrated her 200th birthday in the cave.
Two hundred years old!
Ordinary mortals probably need to live two or three lifetimes to be worth this kind of longevity!
Even a Foundation Establishment cultivator is enough to live a lifetime!
Fang Xi poured herself a glass of second-grade green bamboo wine and enjoyed it silently.
Now, he also likes the bitter taste of this green bamboo wine.
"Now I am two hundred years old... Do the math, Zhan Tu and Zhong Hongyu are also a hundred years old, right? They have passed half of the foundation and longevity, the former still has the possibility of forming alchemy, and the latter really has little hope..."
"Zhan Tu is in a special situation, but Tai Shuhong is a teenager younger than Zhong Hongyu, and he is a top-grade spiritual root that builds his own foundation. There is still some hope..."
"As for Liu Sanqi... his lifespan is about to reach its limit, right? But he has a body of grass and trees, and he practices wood-type kung fu. Maybe he can live to the limit of a foundation cultivator?"
Fang Xi thought about it, and was really emotional: "The old one is half dead..."
Based on the difficulty of alchemy in the Three Kingdoms today, most of the monks in the same group as him, even if they succeeded in building a foundation by luck, are now mostly at the end of their lives...
The next day.
Fang Xi tidied up and took out these Tier 2 talismans that he had refined over the years to prepare to hand in the task. Even though he had lowered the standard, these talismans were considered small boutiques of their kind, which made Qian Laodao full of praise.
Scanning his consciousness, he found that Zheng Shan was just saluting from a distance, and then continued to work on taking care of the elixir garden, probably completely desperate.
On the contrary, his cultivation base has improved, and he has reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Depending on the situation, it is possible to break into the tenth level of Qi refining Dzogchen realm at any time and prepare to build a foundation.
"Being above the third-order spiritual vein, it took so many years to reach this level from the seventh level of Qi refining. It seems that the spiritual root qualifications are really mediocre, and there is no chance..."
Fang Xi sighed and came to the General Affairs Hall.
"Junior Brother Cao..."
Qian Laodao looked a little older than before, and explained to him with a forced smile:
"Well... these second-order talismans are of good quality, but starting from the next year, the talismans handed in each year must increase by 30%, especially the attack talismans, which require an increase of 50%, otherwise the share of Junior Brother Cao, I can only hand over to other talismans The teacher came to do it."
Qian Laodao sighed, and said something that made Fang Xi's expression slightly moved.
"Increase the cost? As long as there are enough materials, it's not a big problem..."
However, Fang Xi thought about it and agreed.
"Oh? It seems that my junior brother's talisman attainments have improved again. It's really gratifying..." Qian Laodao cupped his hands, and suddenly sighed again: "Recently, a group of robbers have frequently robbed our convoy of supplies. Jie repaired 'Pei Fei', and his cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation establishment, and he killed the foundation establishment monks of our sect..."
"Pei Fei?"
Fang Xi showed doubts: "It seems that I have never heard of this deed before..."
"Hmph, those who hide their heads and show their tails, either took a pseudonym, or came from another country... My Qingmu sect has already laid a net, this time the elders of the Xingtang will lead the team, and this cultivator will definitely be awarded the head!"
Qian Laodao has secretly observed Fang Xi for more than ten years, and confirmed that he is an ascetic. He has gradually regarded him as one of his own and revealed some secrets.
Of course, the ambush is probably over long ago, so it's not a secret at all.
"So that's how it is... the elders of the punishment hall can be held at least in the late stage of foundation establishment. This time, the gang of robbers are doomed..."
Fang Xi showed joy, and was about to say goodbye and leave.
Suddenly, the bell that shook the sky resounded through the Cyanwood Forest again.
"This is…"
Qian Laodao's expression became dull, and when he heard the nine bells, he seemed to be sucked out of his soul. He sat back on his seat and muttered to himself: "Another one died, another one died...how can this be?" Yes, how can this be good?"
Fang Xi was expressionless, thinking to herself: "The bell rang nine times, it must have died at the late stage of Foundation Establishment or Consummation, or the kind that cannot be kept secret..."
'The disciples of the Cyanwood Sect who went out to ambush Pei Fei this time...I'm afraid they will lose a lot. '
He flew out of the Cyanwood School, only to see the 'Wanhai Bamboo Forest Formation' fully activated, and an illusory bamboo shadow spread all over the inside and outside of the Cyanwood Forest.
A large number of lights are flying around like headless chickens, and sound transmission symbols are flying around. It really is a scene of chaos.
As long as a discerning person sees this scene, ominous words such as 'the building will collapse' will always appear in his mind.
Fang Xi thought for a while, turned around and went to find Zheng Tie.
He is in the Cyanwood Sect, only these few acquaintances.
Three days later.
Zheng Tiedong Fuzhong.
"Alas... this time the elders of the punishment hall planned to round up Pei Fei, but unexpectedly fell into a trap..."
Zheng Tie's face was still a little pale, and he seemed uneasy: "Then Pei Fei actually hides his cultivation, he is a demon cultivator who has completed the foundation establishment, and there are several other foundation establishment helpers... After a big battle, it is us Not only did the elders of the punishment hall die on the spot, but also several foundation-building war cultivators died in succession... Now, the head of the sect, Wei Xuan, has been impeached and may be about to abdicate."
"well…"
Fang Xi sighed: "External turmoil is actually irrelevant, the big deal is to give up a few fringe cities and spirit mines... shrink the manpower and keep guarding the mountain gate. How can a magic cultivator with a complete foundation be able to break through my Cyanwood Sect's great formation?" The key is civil strife and people's hearts... This time the elders of the punishment hall are in the ambush, there must be spies leaking the news, but within the sect, they are stirring up trouble and fighting for power and profit..."
boom!
Zheng Tie slammed his fist on the table: "Well said, very well said... I always thought that you, my nephew, were all focused on retreating and not doing ordinary things, but I didn't expect that you just had inner wisdom in your heart... You said that I have been in the Qingmu sect for nearly a thousand years Jiye, how did it become like this?"
His eyes were slightly red, and he seemed to really have feelings for this sect.
'It's actually very simple. The sects in the world of cultivating immortals are warlords... Respecting strength, there is no one who can make the final decision in the sect, and the dragons have no leader, so it will naturally be chaotic...'
'Fortunately, relying on the formation and background, I can continue to be chaotic for decades, which is enough for me to practice...'
Fang Xi chatted for a few more words, and Zheng Tie suddenly said: "This time we are investigating the spies, that Tie Jiu is very suspicious... This person is also a war repairer of the Xingtang. This time he followed the mission together, but he disappeared in the end. No one is dead, no corpse... Brother Fu has suffered because of this, but fortunately, my nephew doesn't have much contact with him."
Walking out of Zheng Tiedong's mansion, Fang Xi's eyes moved slightly.
‘Tie Jiu is a spy? There are some possibilities...'
‘However, this person escaped, and a group of people including the elders of the punishment hall died. Doesn’t it mean that there are vacancies in the third-tier middle-rank and even upper-rank caves? '
‘This time Lu Qing has already sat down, it’s not inconvenient to live in the core of the spirit vein...’
‘This Cyanwood Sect is also much more grand than Ouyang Zhen. Back then, all the guests of Baize Immortal City were arranged in the inner city, and only disciples practiced in Baifeng Mountain...’
'Well...you can do some research, the third-tier mid-level spiritual vein caves are better than the low-level ones...'
‘However, it’s too jumpy at this time, maybe you will be pulled into a strong man...Let’s wait until the decision of the Aoki Sect is changed and the contraction is the main one, and then make a decision...’
Green Bamboo Forest.
Fang Xi deliberately slowed down a bit, and stopped in front of the cave.
"Meet Uncle Cao..."
Zheng Shan saluted.
"Well, you took good care of the elixir, but you put your heart into it..."
Fang Xi gave a word of encouragement and walked into the cave.
…
Not long after, news came out from the Cyanwood Sect that Wei Xuan, the head of the sect, had abdicated, and another great monk who had successfully established his foundation, 'Ling Yunzi', took over the post of head of the Cyanwood Sect.
As soon as Ling Yunzi came to power, he announced the adoption of a defensive strategy, abandoning unimportant markets and shrinking manpower.
This led to a sharp reduction in the losses suffered by the Cyanwood School, and at the same time Fang Xi's talisman tasks were also reduced.
Then, his application to change the cave was directly rejected by Qian Laodao.
The reason is that the new official of 'Lingyunzi' took office three times, and he didn't want to touch this bad luck... What's more, as the foundation-building monks stationed in various places were recalled to the sect one after another, the top-notch Lingmai caves were also frantically sought after, and the competition became fierce. Already...
