Pick up the treasure bag and start cultivating immortals from the shrinking lamp.

Chapter 143 Cloud City

Deep in the Tianyan Palace.

Ripples appeared in the void, and a portal appeared. It was about ten feet high and engraved with flowing cloud patterns. It was simple but had a fairy-like feel, and gave off an ancient and solemn atmosphere.

After entering, I found that this was a world full of infinite light, as if the earth here was emitting light.

Moreover, the powerful and rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth hit Xia Chen in the face, and every breath made him feel moist and fresh.

Even standing there, he felt like he didn't want to move.

"Is this the spiritual energy contained in the fourth-level spiritual vein..."

Xia Chen felt the extraordinary spiritual energy here. Its purity was incomparable to that of a third-level spiritual vein.

It is no wonder that in the Jin State's immortal cultivation world, apart from the Tianyan Immortal Sect, no other sect cultivator or individual cultivator has achieved the status of a True Lord.

"The spiritual vein below the main peak is not absorbing or releasing spiritual energy now. The fourth-level spiritual energy of this small world is all stored before, and it can't last for too long!"

Lu Bai introduced on the side.

Xia Chen nodded.

He looked around and found that the space here was not very large, only about a few hundred acres.

And it seems to be a cave or something like that.

There are rockery, lakes, pavilions, winding corridors, and in the center is a towering palace with white jade steps, gold and stone pillars, and the floor is paved entirely with mutton-fat jade. The tables and chairs are carved from purple wood, and are crystal clear and sparkling with purple clouds.

"This small world is the place where all the previous masters practiced. It also has several treasure houses, which contain all kinds of rare treasures from heaven and earth, magic weapons, elixirs, talismans, and immortal gold!"

Lu Bai seemed to have really integrated into the Mangdang Mountain system and spared no effort in explaining.

Then he brought Xia Chen and Xu Yun to a treasure house.

The door, which was about ten feet high, slowly opened.

Suddenly, an extremely strong medicinal fragrance wafted to my face.

The three of them just felt refreshed, with clear ears and eyes.

The treasury is not big, and there are many yellow gourds and mutton-fat jade bottles on the shelves on both sides.

There is also a seal on it, indicating the type of pill, grade and refining time.

Xia Chen took a look and found that most of them were second or third level pills, with only two or three fourth level pills. Most of them were recovery pills and could not increase mana or lifespan.

And they have a long history, dating back hundreds of years.

For fourth-level elixirs, fourth-level spiritual medicines must be used as the main ingredient.

The fourth-level spiritual veins of the Tianyan Immortal Sect are becoming increasingly exhausted, so where is the spiritual energy to cultivate fourth-level spiritual medicines?

In order to prolong his life, Sect Leader Li Shuijing had already refined all the fourth-grade elixirs in the sect's inventory into precious pills, leaving basically nothing behind.

However, there are still quite a few third-level pills, about fifty or sixty in total, and their value is inestimable.

Then we came to the hall where the magic weapons were stored.

As soon as it was opened, there were myriad divine auras lingering around, and colorful rays of light flowed like water.

The floor was paved with colored glaze, and on both sides were antique tables made of thousand-year-old spiritual wood. There were nine tables on each side, a total of eighteen tables. On each table was placed a magic weapon, and the quality of each of them reached the level of a treasure.

Xia Chen saw a treasure bottle, flashing with black light and flowing with Taoist rhyme, which looked simple and natural.

A jade talisman, about one foot long and three fingers wide, with a mysterious light floating up and down on it. There was a fuzzy layer of chaos inside the jade talisman, and lightning as thin as hair flickered faintly in it.

There is also an elegant and luxurious dress with layers of glassy luster flowing on it, and countless delicate runes faintly intertwined in it.

These three items are all top-grade treasures!
On the table in the center, there was a long sword, three feet long and two fingers wide. The sword body was green and shining with cold light. Murderous aura was flowing only within three feet of the sword body, hidden but not released. The cold air penetrated the skin, making people shiver all over at the sight of it.

It is the Tianyan Sect’s most precious treasure, the Lingshuang Sword!

As for under the spiritual wooden table, there were various spiritual weapons placed there, including guns, spears, swords, knives, banners, flags, etc.

Most of them are high-grade spiritual weapons, or even top-grade spiritual weapons.

Xia Chen couldn't help but secretly smack his lips in amazement. The foundation of the sect master's lineage was truly incomparable to that of the other six peaks.

The talisman treasury is similar to the magic treasury. There are many second- and third-level talismans, but there is not a single fourth-level talisman.

Basically all of them were used by Li Shuijing in the battle with Taoist Tianyou.

Inside, Xia Chen also saw several time capsules the size of goose eggs.

There are five of them placed on the glazed table.

However, they have basically all been opened, and it is estimated that they have been used in critical moments by successive leaders over the past ten thousand years.

And the energy has been exhausted. If you want to use it again, you need to spend spirit stones to recharge.

"Are there any similar magic weapons?" Xia Chen asked.

Lu Bai thought for a moment and said, "I heard Master say before that three thousand years ago, the Xian Sect was at its peak and possessed many terrifying and peculiar magical weapons. However, a war broke out between the two major cultivation worlds of Wu and Jin, and even the Yuanying Zhenjun fell. The Xian Sect also suffered a great blow, and many of its resources were consumed one after another, so that now even the Huangquan Sect can't do anything about it!"

"I see!"

Xia Chen seemed to be thinking about something.

The last treasure house is the hall where spirit stones are stored.

He was excited and looked expectant.

In the previous series of battles, the amount of spirit stones consumed by the tile ghosts and the toy army was unimaginable.

The remaining 80,000 to 90,000 low-grade spirit stones had already been consumed.

If the boxing gloves that ended in a draw were not newly drawn props and still had the initial energy, he might not have been able to support it with his financial resources.

After opening it, a strong aura of spiritual energy hits you in the face.

There were huge boxes placed neatly in the hall, which looked heavy.

Many boxes have been opened, and there are some remaining scattered spirit stones inside.

Xia Chen removed the seal of a box. After opening it, he saw pieces of azure jade placed tightly and orderly together, fitting perfectly and even the size was exactly the same.

What is placed in the box are basically medium-grade spirit stones.

A box contains one hundred medium-grade spirit stones, no more, no less.

As for the top-grade spirit stones, there was only half a box, more than fifty pieces.

Xia Chen estimated that all the spirit stones in this hall were worth a total of 1.2 to 1.3 million low-grade spirit stones.

"Why are there only so many spirit stones left?" He frowned slightly.

More than one million low-grade spirit stones is undoubtedly a huge sum of money for an individual.

But for a large immortal sect like the Tianyan Sect, it seems insignificant.

Tens of thousands of outer disciples, eight hundred outer disciples, as well as elders, deacons, hall masters...

The daily expenses are unimaginable.

Lu Bai explained: "The spirit stone mines controlled by the Immortal Sect over the years have been mined out, and they have been unable to find new spirit stone mines, so they have been unable to make ends meet!"

“The landlord’s family doesn’t have any food left!”

Xia Chen sighed.

Originally I thought that after I assisted Xiao Yun'er to ascend to the throne and take charge of the Tianyan Immortal Sect, I would have no worries about spirit stones from then on and could upgrade any item I wanted.

I didn't expect to take over such a big mess.

As for auctioning off magic weapons, elixirs, and talismans, it would be possible to gather a large amount of spirit stones in a short period of time.

But this is undoubtedly an act of squandering one's fortune. No head master in history has ever been so poor as to sell off his ancestral property.

If the truth were to be exposed, it would probably cause people to become uneasy, and Xu Yun's already unstable position as the head of the sect would become even more precarious.

In the days that followed, Xia Chen stayed in this small world to practice. The fourth-level spiritual energy was extremely pure, without a trace of impurities, and its benefits for practice were immeasurable.

A cultivator who has established his foundation can transform the magic power in his Dantian from gaseous to liquid, producing a qualitative change.

But Jindan cultivators can transform liquid magic power and most of their spiritual thoughts into solid state, resulting in even greater qualitative changes.

He is now trying to condense the phantom of the golden elixir.

When a cultivator forms the golden elixir, he needs to first condense the phantom of the golden elixir. Only after the golden elixir turns from virtual to real can he officially enter the golden elixir stage.

The magic power in his body was like a rolling river, rushing through his many meridians.

Finally, all rivers flow into the sea and converge into the Dantian.

The golden waves created by magic power were surging, the waves soared into the sky, and the rumbling sound of the waves was like thousands of troops galloping.

There is also divine brilliance blooming, brilliant and dazzling, and shining with golden light.

At this moment, a bright moon rose from the sky, hazy and unreal, emitting a cold light.

The originally turbulent sea of ​​magic power gradually calmed down.

An atmosphere of tranquility permeated the air.

"Half-step golden elixir!"

Xia Chen exhaled.

This moon-like phantom of the golden elixir was a projection of his magic power, physical blood, and soul. It was round, flawless, and natural, and was in no way inferior to the real golden elixir condensed by ordinary cultivators.

Even a little bit beyond that.

Originally, with his foundation, he could directly turn the virtual into the real and condense a golden elixir, and it would be a top-grade golden elixir.

The six Jindan Zhenren of Tianyan Immortal Sect produced golden elixirs of only average to low quality.

In order to break the elixir into an infant, the quality of the golden elixir must reach top grade.

Looking at the entire sect, the only one who has the hope of condensing a top-grade golden elixir is Lu Bai.

Therefore, Li Shuijing was determined to take Taoist Tianyou away at the risk of his life, just to buy time for his disciple to develop.

Otherwise, with Taoist Tianyou's lifespan, he could at least live for thirty to fifty years.

However, Xia Chen was not satisfied with the top-grade golden elixir, he wanted to go one step further.
-
Afterwards, Xia Chen came to the small world of wallpaper.

There is a bright light before my eyes, the fresh scent of grass and trees drifts in the wind, and the melodious sound of birds reaches my ears.

This place is a space of its own, isolated from the outside world, with a radius of about five hundred miles, and everything is fresh and natural.

The stream flows gently, the grass is fragrant, the mountains and rivers are picturesque, and pavilions are dotted among the mountains and rivers, quiet and natural.

After flying for a while, a lake came into view, shrouded in mist.

On the surface of the lake, there were groups of spirit fish floating, gathered together, and from a distance, they looked like huge water monsters.

Xia Chen waved his hand, and countless feeds fell from the sky.

Suddenly, the lake water below seemed to boil, and countless spirit fish were swarming around competing for food.

The feed contains fast-growing all-purpose pet food, which can greatly accelerate the growth cycle of spirit fish.

He was thinking about whether he should set up a Spirit Fish Department under the Beast Department to be responsible for the large-scale breeding of spirit fish.

Although the improvement that spirit fish can bring to cultivators is not as great as spirit beast meat, it is not much different. Moreover, it is easier to breed and the time cost is not high.

For many disciples of the Immortal Sect, tangible benefits are real.

If they could eat magic eggs and magic fish every day, and have a meal of magic beast meat every now and then, it would be enough to make them grateful.

By then, there will be no need to worry about not being able to gather people’s hearts.

After walking through several mountains, the view in front of us suddenly became bright. We saw a long canyon with steep cliffs on both sides, green pines and cypresses, and bamboo forests full of vitality.

Several clear springs converge into a stream, which falls down from the cliff, like broken jade and silver pieces falling from the sky, forming a blue lake.

Beside Bitan Lake, there are several rows of houses built of green wood, which are simple and unadorned, and have an ancient charm.

In front of the house, the pink elephant, bamboo horse, and seven-leaf sword grass were taking care of the spiritual field.

There was a sea of ​​green in the fields of more than one acre.

Each blade of grass is about an inch tall and green.
This is candy dessert forage, and its grade has reached D level.

Previously, Xia Chen spent a lot of money to let King Patience upgrade several grass seeds to D-level.

Then let Zhuma and his friends raise him.

However, D-grade candy grass seeds grow very slowly.

It took five days for them to sprout.

As a last resort, we can only use the passage of time in small indoor farms to ripen the fruits.

Only then did we get some forage seeds and carry out large-scale planting.

After all, it takes a considerable amount of spirit stones to open a small indoor farm, and using it to ripen grass for a long time is obviously a huge loss.

"The growth cycle of forage is too long, which also means that the scale of the second-level elixir cannot be the same as the first-level elixir!"

Xia Chen stroked his chin.

It can be seen from the growth cycle of forage grass that the reproduction and growth of the second-level elixir must take a considerable amount of time.

The sweet snack grass is too supernatural, which means it is impossible to grow it outside.

Otherwise, if the news gets out, the entire cultivation world will go crazy.

The wallpaper world is big, but D-level candy and snack grass also requires a second-level spiritual field to grow.

However, Xia Chen's main purpose was to see if he could cultivate the Foundation Establishment Pill.

If possible, then Tianyan Sect will give birth to a group of foundation-building cultivators, greatly increasing its strength.

Then he took out a mutton-fat jade bottle, which contained a golden elixir, with clouds rising and light flashing.

It was the top-grade foundation-building pill, which was taken out from the Tianyan Immortal Palace.

"This pill is precious, you must not steal it!"

Xia Chen gave his childhood sweetheart a few words of advice before leaving the wallpaper world.

Today, the Tianyan Immortal Sect can almost be said to be deserted.

The five great golden elixir masters have almost completed the reclaiming of those third-level spirit veins.

Now they are gradually moving towards the Shiwanda Mountains.

Departments such as the Sinong Palace, Tianbao Division, Tiandan Division, Tianfu Division, and Xiangong Division also opened up some quasi-third-order or second-order high-quality spiritual veins and moved out one after another.

Above the Immortal Sect, spaceships shuttled back and forth between the Ten Thousand Mountains.

"It seems that this Tianyan Immortal Palace has to move, otherwise it will really become a lonely place!"

Xia Chen upgraded the house's bamboo dragonfly to level C.

Because it is an ordinary prop, it does not cost much, only 20,000 low-grade spirit stones are needed.

The palace was huge, like a mountain, but with the help of the bamboo helicopter that covered the house, it slowly rose into the air.

Along the way, countless monks were stunned.

After flying for a day and a night, the palace finally arrived above Mangdang Mountain.

Xia Chen did not intend to let it fall, but to keep it hanging in the clouds and build a city in the clouds!

He took out a set of props, including machines, ropes, and cans.
