Beast-controlling fairy clan.

Chapter 3 Qingyun Valley

It is rumored that there are immortals living in Yunlan Mountain in Lanzhou. Woodcutters and herbalists who go into the mountain to chop wood and collect herbs often say that they have seen traces of immortals.

This attracted many mortals who admired the way of immortality and went to the mountains one after another to seek immortals and ask for the way.

However, the Yunlan Mountain is steep and precipitous, with many poisonous snakes and ferocious beasts. Most of those who go into the mountain to seek immortals and ask for advice die in a foreign land without even seeing the shadow of an immortal.

Even if some people are able to see the "immortal", they will soon find out that they do not have the spiritual roots required to practice immortal techniques, and will ultimately be rejected.

However, after Zhou Chun separated from the fleet of the merchant named Wu, he used the "wind control technique" to cross mountains and ridges, and arrived at Yunlan Mountain in less than a day.

Knowing that there might be a market for immortal cultivators here, Zhou Chun no longer dared to cast spells and rush on his way as carelessly as before.

Otherwise, if I encounter someone with bad intentions hiding in the dark and attacking me, I won't even have time to react.

It was also his luck that after walking in the mountains for a while, he met a cultivator from Jingguo Lanzhou.

The other party was also about to go to the "Qingyun Valley" in Yunlan Mountain to exchange resources for cultivation.

From this immortal cultivator, Zhou Chun learned that there was actually no real immortal cultivator market in Yunlan Mountain.

It was just because there were three independent cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage living in seclusion in the "Qingyun Valley". In order to facilitate their practice, they gathered some independent cultivators there to form a place for material exchange. Normally, only some independent cultivators in the Qi Refining stage in Lanzhou would come here to patronize.

There are quite a few places like this in the world of immortal cultivation.

After all, cultivators need to absorb pure spiritual energy and refine it in order to practice, and even cultivators in the foundation-building stage cannot maintain the operation of a spiritual purification array on their own.

Therefore, even if some independent cultivators have reached the foundation-building stage, if they do not choose to join a certain immortal cultivation sect or family, for the sake of future practice, they must definitely look for a place with spiritual veins to establish a soul purification formation, and then gather people to maintain the operation of the formation.

Zhou Chun followed the immortal cultivator, and after traveling around several peaks in the mountains, they arrived outside a foggy canyon.

Without being reminded by the other party, Zhou Chun could see through the "Qi-gazing Technique" that the fog in the depths of the canyon was actually an illusion created by the formation, and was not real water vapor or fog.

However, his cultivation level was not high enough, and he could not use the "Qi-Seeing Technique" to see through the fog and see the scenery inside the canyon.

After the two stayed outside the canyon for a while, the cultivators inside discovered their identities as immortal cultivators, and then someone began to interrogate them through the formation.

Needless to say, this wandering cultivator was not coming to "Qingyun Valley" for the first time, so he was easily released after being interrogated.

Zhou Chun only had the cultivation level of the sixth level of the Qi Refining Stage, and he posed no threat to the independent cultivators in the Qingyun Valley.

So after a brief interrogation, he paid three spirit coins as a deposit and was allowed to enter the valley.

This silver-white spiritual coin looked like a kind of currency called "silver dollar" from a certain era in his previous life. It was made by cultivators using certain special metals. It had extremely high anti-counterfeiting technology and was difficult to imitate.

The spiritual coins in Zhou Chun's hand were all issued by the "Moon Wheel Sect", the only major force in Jingguo that can refine and issue spiritual coins. The crescent moon pattern on the back of the spiritual coin is the symbol of its sect.

This kind of spiritual coin is the currency circulated among cultivators. The constant value of each spiritual coin is that it can be used to cultivate for one day in the "Moon Wheel Sect", or any sect, family, or market in Jingguo.

That’s right, practice for twelve hours a day!

To be honest, Zhou Chun was also surprised when he first learned about this.

He had not expected that in this world of immortal cultivators where great power belonged to themselves, such a credit currency would actually appear.

But when I think about it carefully, I feel great admiration for the immortal cultivator who invented this kind of spiritual coin.

It is obvious that in this world where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is polluted by turbid evil energy, the emergence of this credit currency is definitely a product that best suits the times.

The large forces of immortal cultivators that issue credit currency can use it to harvest resources from other small and medium-sized forces and individual cultivators.

The largest number of independent cultivators also solved the problem of not being able to practice because of the emergence of spirit coins.

The most interesting thing is that although the spirit coin looks like a credit currency, it has a practical value of one spirit coin that can be used to cultivate for twelve hours a day, so there is no possibility of depreciation.

Even if a major force over-issues spiritual coins, as long as it is not a completely uncontrolled over-issuance, there is basically no need to worry about credit bankruptcy or currency collapse.

In this case, even if the "Moon Wheel Sect" that issued the spiritual coins in his hands was destroyed, the spiritual coins would still be effective.

Because in order to destroy the power of the "Moon Wheel Sect", he must recognize the value of the original spirit coins. Otherwise, he will become the enemy of all the immortal cultivators who hold this kind of spirit coins, and the spirit coins he issues will not be recognized and used by these people.

Therefore, after Zhou Chun thought clearly about the various benefits brought by spiritual coins, he no longer dared to underestimate the cultivators in this world.

There is no doubt that in terms of wisdom, these immortal cultivators who are pursuing immortality are definitely not inferior to the so-called highly intellectuals in his previous life, and may even be smarter!
After entering the "Qingyun Valley" at this time, Zhou Chun looked around and saw that only the front half of the valley with some shops and attics was open to outsiders.

The deep area of ​​the canyon was still shrouded in the fog of the formation and could not be seen clearly.

Perhaps because it was not a proper market, Zhou Chun did not see many cultivators here. Only in a few shops could one or two customers be seen occasionally.

He came here this time not to buy or sell anything, but to gather information.

The Sanjue Sect was originally a sect in Fengguo, south of Jingguo. It is still unknown whether they will be able to successfully take root and settle in Jingguo after this cross-border migration.

Zhou Chun needs to figure this out before deciding whether to really return to the sect.

So after wandering around the valley for a while, he saw several immortal cultivators sitting around a table in a teahouse, drinking tea and chatting. He then followed them into the teahouse and ordered a pot of spiritual tea worth one spiritual coin.

Although he seemed to be drinking the spiritual tea by himself, he was actually listening to the conversation between several cultivators at the next table.

Those people were originally discussing the famous deeds of some famous immortal cultivators in Lanzhou, as well as some internal affairs of immortal cultivation sects and families that they had heard from others.

As they were talking about this, the matter of the Sanjue Sect, a sect from Fengguo, moving to Jingguo Lanzhou, naturally became a topic of conversation.

"Hehehe, fellow Taoists, I think you have all heard about the deeds of the Three Absolute Sect who escaped from Feng Country recently, right?"

"Tang just learned the news two days ago that under the auspices of Qinglian Temple, the Three Absolute Sect has been split into four parts. From now on, there will no longer be any so-called Three Absolute Sect!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, a sect that has been passed down for more than 1,700 years, with three Jindan-stage cultivators, was destroyed and its inheritance was cut off. It's really sad!"

At the tea table, a man with a mustache and wearing a yellow robe twitched his eyebrows, picked up the teacup and took a big gulp of the tea, then shared the information he knew with a proud look on his face.

Hearing what he said, several wandering cultivators were shocked at first, and then, like the man with the mustache, they started talking about the matter in various ways, full of gloating.

It was obvious that as independent cultivators, they were very relieved and happy about the sudden destruction of these usually high-and-mighty immortal cultivation sects.

Even though the Sanjue Sect was a sect of Feng Country and had never bullied them, they still could not feel any sympathy for the Sanjue Sect's experience.

After all, all the immortal cultivation sects in the world are the same. They are all rentiers who maintain their own nobility by exploiting the vast number of independent cultivators.

As oppressed independent cultivators, they naturally have to put themselves in the right place.

But when Zhou Chun heard the news, he was shocked and his heart was in turmoil.

This result is undoubtedly the worst result for him.

The Three Absolute Sect no longer exists, so there is no way he can return to the sect!

Will he have to work for those immortal cultivation sects and families to earn resources for his cultivation in the future like these independent cultivators?
Is it possible that even if I travel through time and space and am reborn, I can't get rid of my identity as a worker?
Zhou Chun was confused for a moment and didn't know what to do next.

Fortunately, he had his back to that table of people, so no one could see the change in his expression.

Then the man with the mustache continued to share the news he had learned. His words made the confused Zhou Chun's eyes gradually brighten and rekindled his hope.
