Nine Transformations of the True Spirit.

Chapter 201 Resident
After the giant boat landed, five Jindan Zhenren took a step forward, stepped on the invisible and intangible steps in the air, and walked down the flying boat step by step with ease.

The foundation-building monks of Lingyun Sect did not have the ability to walk in the air, so they could only use the light body technique to fly down from the flying boat.

At this time, Master Jing also landed on the ground and said with a smile: "It is getting late, please take a rest. Tomorrow I will gather fellow Taoists from all factions to discuss how to defend against the enemy."

Zhuge Qi nodded, raised his sleeve and flicked it. The huge boat quickly shrank to three inches in length and was put away by him.

At this time, more than a dozen rays of light flew from a distance, close to the treetops, and landed on the open space.

These people were all foundation-building cultivators, wearing the standard robes of the Lingyun Sect, and bowed deeply to the five Jindan True Immortals.

The leader was a middle-aged cultivator who was in the late stage of foundation building. He said respectfully, "Zhang Zian, the head of the Good Merit Hall, greets the five elders! Our sect's residence has been prepared, and we respectfully invite the five elders and fellow disciples to move in."

Zhuge Qi said calmly: "Lead the way ahead."

Zhang Zian said respectfully: "Yes!"

……

Half an hour later, Chen Yuan sat in a two-story building, meditating and practicing.

A layer of faint white arc light enveloped his body, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth transformed into colorful spots of light and was absorbed into his body.

At the same time, the Chilong pendant on Chen Yuan's waist slowly became transparent, like a piece of clear thousand-year-old ice.

The Chilong patterns on it seemed to come alive, shaking its head and tail, emitting an invisible wave, which made it easier for Chen Yuan to calm his mind and also increased the speed at which he absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

After Chen Yuan arrived at the Lingyun faction’s base, he was assigned a small building as his residence.

A formation restriction has been set up outside the small building to block spiritual perception, and it can only be opened with his identity jade token.

The Lingyun Sect's headquarters is quite large, with more than 300 two-story buildings, and each foundation-building cultivator is assigned one building.

In the center of the base are ten three-courtyard structures with pavilions, towers, rockery and waterside terraces built inside. The environment is elegant and is the residence of the five Jindan elders.

The dozen or so foundation-building cultivators who welcomed everyone to the base were all deacons and disciples of the Lingyun Sect, and Wang Ran was among them.

Chen Yuan learned from him that the six sects of Qi State had sent disciples to the Demon-Slaying Desert three months ago to build a base, and it was at that time that he followed Zhang Zian here.

In addition, there are fourteen alchemists, weapon refiners, formation masters, and talisman makers, who, together with the deacon disciples, are responsible for the logistics supply of Lingyun Sect.

The Master Jing who welcomed the five Jindan elders of Lingyun Sect was an elder of Guiyuan Sect and also a formation master. He brought thirty formation masters with him and was specifically responsible for building the base.

Firstly, it was because the formation inheritance of Guiyuan Sect was quite unique among the six sects, and there were a lot of formation masters in the sect; secondly, it was because Guiyuan Sect was at the bottom in terms of strength among the six sects, and by taking the initiative to undertake this matter, they would be able to send fewer foundation-building monks into the war.

Master Jing was indeed amazing. In just three months, he set up a large water and wood formation and created a vibrant oasis in the desert Gobi.

Not only that, he also used six hundred high-grade spirit stones and ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones to set up a spirit gathering formation, condensing a pseudo spirit vein.

Within ten years, the concentration of spiritual energy in this oasis will be comparable to that of a mid-grade spiritual vein, enough to support the cultivation of thousands of foundation-building monks.

Master Jing also used this pseudo spiritual vein to set up a formation. When he activated it with all his strength, its power was comparable to the protective formation of a large sect, and was enough to resist a Nascent Soul cultivator for a quarter of an hour.

After the oasis was built, the Jindan masters of the six Qi sects led their foundation-building disciples to this place one after another. The first to arrive was Ziyang Sect, followed by Guiyuan Sect, Mingyin Valley, Tiangang Sword Sect, and Wanshou Mountain. The Lingyun Sect, which was the closest, was the last to arrive.

At this time, this oasis had gathered at least forty Jindan Zhenren, more than 1,400 foundation-building cultivators, and more than 150 alchemists, weapon refiners, formation masters, and talisman makers.

Among them, the Zi Yang Sect made the greatest contribution, sending out ten Jindan cultivators and four hundred foundation-building cultivators, who came on three huge magic boats, with a huge momentum.

The Lingyun Sect's foundation-building cultivators were extremely excited when they heard the news, and their nervousness about participating in the war was alleviated a lot.

The six sects of Qi State joined forces, gathered so many cultivators, and took out astronomical numbers of spirit stones, setting up a large formation at all costs, which shows their determination to win.

The opponent is not the combined forces of the five major demon sects, but only the Blood Spirit Sect and the Joyous Union Sect. The Nascent Soul cultivators cannot take action yet, so there is great potential for this battle.

Some people have even begun to fantasize about whether they can achieve merit in this battle and receive generous rewards from the sect.

When Wang Ran told Chen Yuan and the other two about these things, his face was full of smiles and he was extremely confident.

He witnessed with his own eyes the transformation of this place from a barren desert to a vibrant oasis. Dozens of formation masters, led by Master Jing, set up a stunning formation and were confident that the Six Sects of Qi would win the battle.

However, the Qi State's six clans' move to wage war and their efforts to publicize their own strength and boost morale made Chen Yuan more cautious.

If the Six Sects of Qi State were really confident of victory, why would they waste spirit stones to condense a pseudo spirit vein that could last for ten years?
It is obvious that they are prepared for a protracted war and have no confidence in winning a decisive battle with the two evil sects.

After Chen Yuan arrived at the small building, he immediately meditated and practiced, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, not missing any opportunity to improve his cultivation.

The spiritual energy of the pseudo-spiritual veins in the oasis is first used to support the formation, and secondly for the cultivation of Jindan cultivators. The foundation-building cultivators can only get 30%.

But the pseudo spiritual vein is comparable to a medium-sized spiritual vein, and when distributed to each foundation-building cultivator, it is only slightly inferior to a micro spiritual vein.

With the assistance of the Chilong Pendant, the speed of his cultivation was almost the same as that in the cave.

There is no record of any magical powers or secret techniques in "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit". There are many secret techniques in "Demon God Technique", but the only one he can practice is the Giant Spirit Body.

If he wanted to improve his strength, the best way would be to accumulate true energy and prolong the duration of the Giant Body Secret Technique.

Chen Yuan had never participated in a war between cultivators, and the State of Qi had never had a war of this scale in nearly a thousand years, and there was no record of it in the classics.

He could only try his best to make all preparations to increase his chances of saving his life.

The only pity was that the invasion of the demons was so fast that Chen Yuan didn’t have time to go to Lingyun Market to retrieve the Silver Sword.

Calculating the time, the Silver Gang Sword was upgraded to a top-grade spiritual weapon a year and a half ago.

But Chen Yuan was in seclusion and practicing hard at the time and had no time to care about other things. He planned to wait until he broke through to the late stage of foundation building before going to Baoguang Pavilion to get the sword.

Without this top-grade spiritual weapon, Chen Yuan lost another trump card.

He just hoped that the war would not end immediately, giving him a chance to go to Lingyun Market and retrieve the sword.
