Simulation becomes reality, have I ever looked down upon the eternity?

Chapter 496 A spiritual plant husband at Xiaoqing Peak in Fangcun Mountain!

[You rode a white crane and rode the wind. After four days of trekking, you finally arrived at Fangcun Immortal Mountain, one of the nine gates of the righteous path.]

[As you approach, you can feel the spiritual energy flowing like a tide, which is more than ten times denser than that of Qinghe County. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth condenses like mist, gathering and dispersing from time to time, as if it were a fairyland.]

[The mountain gate is majestic, with three ancient seal characters "Fangcun Mountain" inscribed on it. ]

[On both sides, there stood two hundred-foot-tall jade unicorns, with spiritual beads embedded in their eyes, looking majestic and awe-inspiring. Anyone with ill intentions approaching would be intimidated by their divine thoughts.]

[The spiritual spring cascades down from the top of the mountain, forming a thousand-foot waterfall, with water droplets splashing and rising like a rainbow.]

[The main peak rises high into the clouds, the mountain is like a sword pointing to the sky, and the surrounding peaks are guarding it, just like the moon surrounded by stars. ]

[Fairy cranes and phoenixes circled, their wings shining brightly, and their clear cries echoed in the valley.]

[You new disciples are riding on cranes suspended in the sea of ​​clouds, with vast mists and waves beneath your feet. Many of you are dazzled, and some even reach out to grasp the nearby flowing clouds, but they only see the clouds flowing through their fingers, leaving only dew on their hands, which are icy and cold.]

[In addition to you disciples who have come all the way from Qinghe County, there are eight or nine teams hovering above the sea of ​​clouds, all of whom are rookies selected from all over Yuzhou in the Middle Earth.]

[These young men who have not yet entered the sect, who are about the same age as you or a few years older, all opened their eyes wide at this moment, with the majestic fairyland of Fangcun Mountain reflected in their eyes, full of longing and yearning. Someone whispered in amazement: "What a huge fairyland!"]

[Among the disciples of Fangcun Mountain who were accompanying and leading the way, some had contempt in their eyes, while others watched coldly from the sidelines, apparently being accustomed to such newcomers making a fuss.]

[Only the disciples behind Yuan Shujian had solemn expressions, and they lined up in the air meticulously, even the movement of their sleeves seemed to be in accordance with the rules, without any slackness.]

[You couldn't help but look at this Senior Brother Yuan for a second longer, thinking to yourself, it seems that these disciples not only respect him, but also have some fear for him.]

[Soon, the leading monks of several nearby teams came forward to greet Yuan Shujian, with a hint of respect in their words.]

[This Senior Brother Yuan's status in Fangcun Mountain is probably even more respected than imagined. ]

[While everyone was talking, you quietly checked his cultivation level—he was in the middle stage of Dao Tai, which was actually a level higher than his grandfather.]

[It's no wonder that he has reached such a state at such a young age. 】

[Soon after, several disciples from Fangcun Mountain wearing cloud-patterned Taoist robes came over on clouds and began to distribute the disciples from Qinghe County to different sects.]

[The crowd suddenly became lively, fellow villagers introduced their names to each other, and some even started chatting and making friends with disciples from other counties.]

[You stood alone in a corner, carefully experiencing the changes in the spiritual energy outside your body. ]

[The rich spiritual energy of Fangcun Mountain makes you feel at home, and your cultivation efficiency is several times faster than before. ]

[If you hadn't deliberately suppressed it, the surrounding spiritual mist would have been absorbed by you.]

[Looking around, many of the newly arrived disciples were flushed due to the excessive spiritual energy. Some were even dizzy and almost staggering. It was obvious that they had not yet adapted to the environment of this blessed land of immortals.]

[You stretch your body, and feel an indescribable sense of comfort in every part of your body, as if every pore is breathing in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.]

[As my thoughts turned, I suddenly remembered that my grandfather had mentioned: Among the nine sects of the righteous path, the "Taixu Cave Heaven" of the Tianxuan Sect is the real holy place for cultivation. It is said that the concentration of spiritual energy there is several times richer than the "Slanting Moon Three Stars Blessed Land" of Fangcun Mountain.]

[When you think of this, you can't help but be fascinated - what is the scenery of that blessed land of immortals like? ]

[In front, the receptionist is loudly reading out the results of the assignment: "Chen Xiao, aptitude B-lower, enters the Alchemy Pavilion."]

[“Song Ai, aptitude B, lower, enters the Fire Dragon Terrace.”]

[“Cai Ya, aptitude C-level, enter Maple Leaf Valley.”]

[These qualifications had already been determined during the selection process in each county, and they are now simply read out as a routine.]

[Soon it was your turn. The deacon disciple carefully compared the description on the list and said loudly after confirming it was correct:]

[“Zhou Jing, aptitude is top-level, enter Xiaoqing Peak.”]

[The people from Qinghe County all had surprised expressions on their faces. They had certainly heard of your name.]

[You were already at the Xiantian realm at the age of four, how could you only have the aptitude of Ding Shang? ]

[You frowned when you heard this. You clearly didn't test your physique in Qinghe County. Where did this "Ding Shang" assessment come from? ]

[After a brief thought, he realized the key point. It should be the Chen family who was causing trouble, but he didn't care. ]

[When the disciple who was guiding you said your name, you keenly sensed Yuan Shujian's gaze.]

[You look normal, and calmly take the badge of Xiao Qingfeng handed to you by the disciple.]

[The moment my fingertips touched the waist plate, I could clearly feel that the three characters "Xiao Qingfeng" engraved on it were a little rough, which was very different from the fine craftsmanship of other peaks.]

[It was not until you tied the badge around your waist that the scrutinizing gaze slowly withdrew.]

[You understand clearly in your heart - you came to Fangcun Mountain to fulfill your grandfather's wish. As for where you stay, it makes no difference to you.]

【Xiao Qingfeng is Xiao Qingfeng, it doesn’t matter where you are. 】

[As the disciples of each sect were taken away one after another, the huge reception platform gradually became empty. ]

[The disciples of the Alchemy Pavilion rode away on red-crowned cranes, and the people of Qiyun Peak soared into the sky on sword lights... In the end, only a dozen of you were left standing there alone.]

[The crowd began to talk. Someone stole a glance at the crude waist badge in his hand, and his face was full of disappointment - everyone could see that this Xiao Qingfeng was probably the least prominent of the eighteen sects in Fangcun Mountain.]

[You turned a deaf ear to the whispers around you, and continued to practice with this rare and rich spiritual energy.]

[As the true essence in the body circulated, a vortex of spiritual energy formed around the body that was difficult to see with the naked eye. It was quite interesting.]

[After practicing for an hour and a half, the Zhou Tian is complete, and you slowly end the practice. ]

[Looking back suddenly, I noticed a girl in purple in the team, sitting cross-legged, practicing meditation like you.]

[After a closer look, your heart is slightly shocked - the aura around this girl is obscure and difficult to understand. Although she is deliberately restraining herself, you can still sense that her cultivation is profound, at least above the "body shaping" realm.]

[Why did she appear here? And why did she hide her cultivation and join Xiaoqingfeng? ]

[Of course, this is none of your business! ]

[You just glanced at it and didn't care. ]

[The girl opened her eyes and seemed to feel someone spying on her, but there was no one around with such cultivation, so she cautiously ended her cultivation.]

[It was not until the sun was setting in the west and dusk was gradually covering the sea of ​​clouds that two figures were seen approaching slowly.]

[The first one was a short and fat middle-aged Taoist priest, with a wine gourd hanging around his waist and a round face full of smiles.]

[Afterwards, a young girl in green followed, smiling sweetly, but there was a hint of playfulness between her brows. ]

[“Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long!” The short and fat Taoist rubbed his hands and smiled, “I’m Xia Sanfeng, and this is Junior Sister Lv Qingyu.”]

[Senior Sister Lu smiled and said, "Brothers and sisters, don't look at me like that. Although Xiaoqingfeng is small, she is the most carefree."] [You secretly investigated and found that both of them have the cultivation base of the middle stage of the Daotai. The girl in green is not very old, probably only thirteen or fourteen years old, but she has such a cultivation base, which surprised you.]

[Most of you new disciples are still in the early stage of body shaping. You deliberately suppressed your cultivation to this level, but it is not noticeable at all.]

[Everyone was embarrassed for a moment after their thoughts were exposed by the blue-clothed girl's straightforward words.]

[Everyone stepped onto the jade boat that the two had brought out. Senior Brother You patted his round belly and said with a smile, "Our Little Qing Peak is indeed ranked last among the thirty-six peaks. We also have the fewest people. Including your group of new disciples, there are less than fifty people in total."]

[As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar on the boat.]

[One disciple was extremely surprised and said: "Less than fifty people?!"]

[His face was filled with disbelief - you have to know that Qiyun Peak has over a thousand disciples, and Longshou Peak has over a thousand and five hundred. In comparison, Xiaoqing Peak is simply pathetic and shabby.]

[Senior Sister Lu flicked her green sleeves and spun the bamboo flute lightly in her palm: "The Peak Master always says that in cultivation, quality is more important than quantity."]

[You secretly laugh at this group of "D-level" disciples who were picked out by the various peaks. No matter how you look at them, they are far from being "excellent".]

[The disciples looked at each other, all pale, and it was obvious that they had foreseen the bleak future of their cultivation.]

[The girl in blue suddenly winked playfully: "Besides."]

[She lowered her voice, "There are advantages to having fewer people. At least we don't have to fight for a bottle of pills like in Longshou Peak."]

[“Speaking of which, other branches have so many disciples that even caves have to be shared by several people. Only our Xiaoqingfeng is different. Each disciple can live in his own courtyard.”]

【Lü Qingyu smiled and said: "But you are still outer mountain disciples now. If you don't break through the Dao Embryo Realm, you can't be admitted to Fangcun Mountain. You must leave the mountain and return to secular life."】

[“But, each lineage has a fixed number of 30 places, regardless of cultivation level… Don’t you have a great chance?”]

[Your grandfather was like this. He went down the mountain to establish the Zhou family and spread his branches before he broke through the Dao fetus.]

[The boys' eyes brightened, and they seemed to have found a way forward again.]

[After saying this, she made hand gestures, and the jade boat suddenly accelerated, carrying everyone through the clouds.]

[The clouds passed by the boat like a veil, but you just leaned on the railing and looked into the distance. The thirty-six peaks in a square inch appeared and disappeared in the sea of ​​clouds, like green snails scattered by immortals.]

[Out of the corner of my eye I caught a glimpse of the girl in purple standing alone at the stern of the boat. She was staring at the sea of ​​clouds with an inexplicable look in her eyes.]

[When the Qingyu Boat passed through the last cloud barrier, the green mountains of Xiaoqingfeng were already in sight, with well-arranged courtyards built along the mountain. ]

[The short and fat Taoist then assigned and directed everyone to their homes.]

[After a brief consideration, you chose a quiet courtyard facing the direction of Qinghe County.]

[Just at this time, the purple-dressed girl also chose the adjacent courtyard. What a coincidence, she became your neighbor across a bamboo fence covered with spiritual vines.]

[You don't care. When you walk in, you will find that each courtyard has a formation, and you must have a special token to enter.]

[This way, the courtyard was isolated and became a private place. ]

[As soon as I walked into the moment when the waist badge resonated with the courtyard protection formation, thousands of seal characters flickered in the void like swimming fish, connecting with each other to form a natural restriction.]

[You observed the floating golden array symbol for a while, and a mysterious trajectory was reflected in your eyes - such a wonderful array arrangement. ]

[This is something you can’t get in the Zhou family. It seems you have to learn the formation as well.]

[You memorized the array symbols after just one look, and set up the array after trying it again. It's not that difficult.]

[You are in a better mood. It seems that you are not lonely anymore after coming to Fangcun Mountain. ]

[At the time of Yin the next day, the morning mist had not yet dissipated, but the new disciples had already gathered at Qingshiping.]

[When You Sanfeng distributed the jade slips of cultivation techniques with his trembling fat hands, you noticed that the three jade slips were glowing with different auras——]

[The first two volumes are the same for everyone, but the last volume varies from person to person. ]

[The first volume, "The Art of Immortality of the Slanting Moon", starts from the Qidong Chapter to the Daotai Chapter. However, you don't need it anymore. Your grandfather has already taught it to you.]

[This is a technique that can be practiced anywhere in Fangcun Mountain. If practiced deeply, it can extend one's life. There are three spells in it, which are not considered special.]

[The second volume is "The True Explanation of Hunyuan Yiqi". Your eyebrows moved slightly, which is actually the emphasis on "Nine Transformations into Gang, One Qi Hunyuan". The initial entry is the fastest, but the subsequent practice is like a turtle crawling. The advantage is that the degree of spiritual power is more than three times that of the cultivators of the same realm. ]

[This kind of skill is common in Fangcun Mountain. Because it is easy to get started, it is mostly chosen by those with mediocre talents. Apart from the deep accumulation of magic power, it is indeed unremarkable. ]

[There are many more exquisite techniques in the mountains than this one, so the "True Explanation of Hunyuan Yiqi" seems mediocre.]

[You are secretly delighted, because your progress in cultivation is too fast. The characteristic of this skill that requires "self-sealing of the spiritual orifice and accumulation of strength for a gradual release" in the later stage has become a superior method for you to make slow progress.]

[As for the third volume of exercises, they vary from person to person. 】

[What you have in your hand is only the first part of the "Five Elements Dunjia Sword Scripture", which records a magic sword technique, "Genjin Sword Finger".]

[While I was pondering, I suddenly felt a scent coming. 】

[Yesterday, Lu Qingyu was already standing three steps away, her bare hands gently gathering her hair that had been messed up by the mountain wind.]

【“But Junior Brother Zhou Jing?”】

[She waited for you to respond in a gentle voice, then nodded slightly: "Junior brother, your duties in the outer mountain have been determined. You need to cut down 300 clumps of moon shadow spirit bamboo in the back mountain every month, and take care of the lower-grade spirit garden on the mountainside."]

[You immediately understood after hearing this - this is clearly a job for a spirit plant husband.]

【Lü Qingyu seemed to see what you were thinking, and chuckled, "Taking care of the spiritual garden is an easy job. The garden is strictly restricted, and the plants are not precious spiritual medicines. Ordinary people don't need to do anything. Just pay attention to signs of pests and diseases and report to the Spiritual Herb Hall in time."】

[She changed the subject, "The hard part is chopping down the Moon Shadow Spirit Bamboo. This bamboo is tempered by the moonlight, and its texture is comparable to black iron. Even ordinary flying swords can hardly damage it."]

[You now understand. No wonder the third volume is "Five Elements Dunjia Sword Sutra" and why it is "Geng Jin Sword Finger". Metal overcomes wood, and Geng Jin is Yang.]

【Geng is in its position, and metal is in the order of autumn. Geng is the one that continues the yin and yang. 】

[Geng metal is the most yang metal, which is responsible for killing and is in line with the way of autumn. ]

[It is just the right counter to this Moon Shadow Bamboo. ]

[Lü Qingyu said with a smile, "Junior Brother Zhou, I will teach you the sword manual first. This is the sword manual unique to Xiaoqingfeng."]

[“It was also created by the Peak Master!”]

[You can't help but be slightly surprised, "Was it created by the Peak Master?"]
