Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 64 Confrontation
The chaos in the market town is a disaster for the independent cultivators who depend on the market town for survival, and no independent cultivator wants this.

But the independent cultivators cannot change anything, they can only seek to protect themselves.

Just like Old Monk Qian, they delayed time and waited for the battle to develop. If something really went wrong, it would be convenient for them to escape.

Li Zhen followed the team. No matter how delayed they were, the team finally arrived at the central warehouse of Fang City.

"The market town is recruiting combat monks with Qi training level three and above. They will be given preferential treatment, a monthly supply of elixirs, and a variety of skills and spells to choose from!" Before they could go to collect the materials, they saw Manager Zhao announcing loudly.

When the two monks in the team heard this condition, they couldn't help but look towards Manager Zhao.

They were tempted. For a casual cultivator to become a combat cultivator in a market town, there was an insurmountable peak to overcome.

By joining the combat monks, you can have access to more resources and your future will be more promising than farming.

Li Zhen saw that Old Monk Qian opened his mouth to persuade him, but Old Monk Qian did not say anything to persuade him.

There is no right or wrong in making choices. Perhaps this is the beginning of a change in the fate of the two monks.

Both cultivators were at the third level of Qi training, which was considered quite strong among the spiritual cultivators. They were still in their prime and had higher expectations for the future. They left the team and came to Manager Zhao's office.

"I hope it's a good thing!" said old monk Qian with a bitter smile.

He is not a successful person. He did not make the right choices when he was young, which made him achieve nothing in his life.

This makes him unqualified to judge other people's choices, and ultimately he can only give his own wishes.

After Li Zhen's team delivered three rounds of materials and returned to the center of the town, they saw nearly a hundred third-level Qi training cultivators standing over Manager Zhao.

It is very likely that most of the third-level Qi training cultivators in the market town are already there, and no one at the third level of Qi training can resist the temptation to join the fighting cultivators in the market town.

It seems that a large number of third-level Qi training cultivators have been recruited, and the market town looks down on the remaining first- and second-level Qi training cultivators, and there are no more tasks for these cultivators.

Old Monk Qian and Li Zhen no longer have any missions in the market, so they can go back and rest.

"Xiao Li, can you dig a basement in the wooden house?" asked old monk Qian softly.

He was traveling with Li Zhen, and because Li Zhen was young, he took special care of Li Zhen.

"Can we still do this?" Li Zhen knew that the space in the wooden house was very small and every space had been utilized. He did not think of digging a basement.

"Dig deeper, preferably more than ten feet. This way, even if someone breaks into the wooden house, you still have a chance of survival!" Old Monk Qian advised.

He couldn't give any advice to other monks in other aspects, but when it came to staying alive, he was very experienced.

In the world of immortal cultivation, being able to live to the age of seventy, this alone is enough to defeat most cultivators.

"Thank you, Mr. Qian!" Li Zhen expressed his gratitude sincerely.

The street where their home was was in front of them, and both Old Monk Qian and Li Zhen quickened their pace.

Although the wooden house is not very safe, being in it can still give them a sense of security, which is a common human nature.

"The Lin family is rebelling, they are destroying the formation!" Just as Li Zhen was about to return to his wooden house, he heard a voice coming from afar.

This is a message delivered by the monks through secret methods. In an emergency, this method can transmit the sound over a long distance.

This sound was heard by all the cultivators in the residential area of ​​the market town, especially those from the Iron Sword Gang and the Zhao Family. Many of them rushed towards the direction where the sound came from.

Li Zhen gave up the plan of returning to the wooden house. If Lin really acted as an insider, it would not be difficult for the Golden Sword Gang to break through the formation of the market town.

If he stayed in the cabin, he would be putting his life and death in the hands of others.

It was not convenient for him to return to his home in the fairyland at this time. The situation in the market town was of great importance. He did not want to appear under the eyes of a group of cultivators when he traveled through time next time.

With a loud "boom", the large formation covering the sky above the market town disappeared.

In the past, the market town and the outside world were almost separated into two worlds. After the formation was broken, Li Zhen was able to see the secular world outside the market town.

At the same time, due to the constraints of the formation, a large amount of spiritual energy was scattered, causing the concentration of spiritual energy in the market to drop rapidly. Of course, as long as the first-level high-quality spiritual veins were still there, the spiritual energy environment would be able to recover quickly after the formation was repaired.

However, the overflow of spiritual energy brought about considerable trouble. The most direct one was the spiritual fields. Without sufficient support from spiritual energy, the spiritual plants planted in the spiritual fields would wither in no time.

Even if the spiritual energy is restored, a reduction in the output of the spiritual fields is inevitable.

While he was thinking, five figures flying magic weapons flew over the market.

A terrifying aura enveloped the market town. The cultivators with low cultivation levels were affected by the five terrifying auras and their movements became slow.

"Five of them are half a step away from building the foundation. Once they finish fighting, this trouble will be solved!" Old Monk Qian came to Li Zhen's side at some point and said.

"Half a step to foundation building, aren't they foundation building cultivators?" Li Zhen asked in surprise.

He had previously thought that these people were foundation-building cultivators, because their aura was only slightly lower than that of County Chief Zhao.

"It's not that easy to build a foundation. How can I break through to the foundation-building stage with a first-grade superior spiritual vein? Besides, resources like foundation-building pills are all in the hands of the sect. It's a stroke of luck for us casual cultivators to reach a half-step foundation-building stage with the help of some spiritual objects!" Old cultivator Qian spoke very dejectedly.

Old monk Qian had never been able to advance to the fourth level of Qi training in his entire life, and the five terrifying monks in the air were no different from him, except that they were trapped in different realms.

The leader of the Iron Sword Gang in the sky and the patriarch of the Zhao family were on one side, while the Lin family, the Golden Knife Gang, and another half-step foundation-building cultivator were on the other side. The two sides confronted each other in the air.

Without the protection of the formation, the battle between these few half-step foundation-building cultivators will determine the ownership of the market town.

All fighting on the ground stopped because it was meaningless.

All the cultivators were looking at the five half-step foundation-building cultivators in the sky, waiting for the outcome of the battle.

"Old Qian, this place is too close to the battle, let's hide away!" Li Zhen's eyes flashed as he said to Old Monk Qian.

"Why don't you come to my place? The basement I dug is not small, big enough for the two of us to hide!" Old Monk Qian looked around and said softly.

If Li Zhen was an adult monk, what Brother Qian said would be too profound and could easily be misunderstood by the adult monk.

But Li Zhen was still a twelve-year-old child, and the old monk Qian's intention was to protect Li Zhen.

"No need, I'd better hide aside!" Li Zhen had his own plans, he shook his head and refused.

He bowed to Monk Qian and left.

It wasn't because he really wanted to hide, but the battle in the sky attracted the attention of all the monks, allowing him to discover the opportunity to obtain a large amount of resources.

Although he didn't stay in the market for a long time, he still recognized the important buildings.

There are several important places in Fangshi, including the bases of the Iron Sword Gang, the Lin family, and the Zhao family in Fangshi, as well as two warehouses, one large and one small.

The rest are shops in the market town. As the outcome has not yet been decided, the market town has not yet been in complete chaos and these shops have not been robbed.

Once the battle in the sky is decided, there will inevitably be a period of chaos, during which time many independent cultivators will take advantage of the situation and rob some resources.

What Li Zhen was going to do was almost the same, but he had the Dragon Heart Space, which allowed him to retrieve spiritual objects from a distance within ten meters.

Before the chaos, he could have collected some spiritual objects first.

Li Zhen's walking in the market town was not out of place. At this moment, many cultivators in the market town seemed to be approaching important places intentionally or unintentionally. Their intentions were self-evident.

Li Zhen first came to the Lin family’s residence. It was called a residence, but it was actually just a three-story wooden building. In the market where every inch of land was valuable, this three-story wooden building covering an area of ​​200 square meters was definitely very luxurious.

He was searching for spiritual objects through the perception of spiritual objects in the Dragon Heart Space, and found that according to his perception, there were not many spiritual objects in the Lin family’s residence, and they were all first-grade low-quality spiritual objects.

He had no interest in low-grade first-order spiritual objects. He hoped to obtain spiritual objects of medium or higher grade. The body-refining technique "Black Iron Body" consumed a lot of medium-grade first-order spiritual objects.

Seeing that he had only a few first-grade intermediate magic weapons left, he had to stop practicing the 'Black Iron Body' once all of them were used up.
