The years when I explored the fairyland.

Chapter 222 219: Luxurious Exchange (Please give me a vote...)
Chu Zhou set the date after March for many reasons.

On the one hand, the dissemination of information and travel in this world both take time. If the interval is too short, some people may not have arrived even after the martial arts performance and Dharma talk conference has ended.

On the other hand, Xuanzhen Temple also needs sufficient time to prepare.

This time we are facing warriors from all over the world, so we naturally cannot just fool around like we did the previous two times. We must demonstrate the organizational ability and good image of Xuanzhen Temple.

Therefore, reception, accommodation, food, safety, etc. are extremely important.

Of course, this is extremely good news for the entire Tianquan County. At least, when the news came out, there were fewer incidents of stealing secret books.

As long as it can be obtained through formal channels, no one wants to fight and kill. After all, except for evil sects and demons, most sects still have to maintain their dignity.

Likewise, since a month ago, more and more warriors have come to Baisha City, and many well-known sects have come directly to pay their respects with business cards.

Xuanzhen Temple and Baisha City were well prepared, and under the command of Hao Songqing, everything was in good order.

As for those thieves who like to get something for nothing and take things without permission, they are of course also inevitable.

It’s a pity that no matter how powerful their methods are, they become useless when faced with the early warning magic weapon, the Five Elements Flag.

Also, because Xu Cheng and the other three had gone into seclusion, Chu Zhou had no more manpower available, so he could only ask Taoist Qing Jing to take charge of catching the thief.

Of course, Chu Zhou had to admit that these might be important, but the time was extended to a full three months, naturally because of the side quest one: World-famous!
According to his idea, he wanted to let this matter ferment and spread for a while.

However, there is no schedule for things like 'world-famous', so Chu Zhou can only estimate.

Originally, in his estimation, the standard should be met after this martial arts performance and teaching conference.

After all, there is a requirement in the mission description that "the sect you belong to must be recognized by the majority of people in the country", which is quite demanding.

But facts have proved that when Overlord Xiong Kuohai was able to fight two enemies alone and bully the Red Lotus Sect Leader and Xuan Yue Demon Lord without any ability to fight back, martial artists all over the world had enough confidence in the secret martial arts of Xuan Zhen Temple.

Then, the side quest is completed!
……

That night,

In the reception hall,

When Chu Zhou found the Great Immortal Jie Yin, he almost couldn't wait to say, "Great Immortal, Great Immortal, I'm here to collect my mission reward!"

The Immortal Jie Yin flicked his whisk, looked Chu Zhou up and down, and said, "You are quite fast!

However, listen to my advice, don’t be too eager for quick success or you will suffer disaster.”

Chu Zhou looked bitter: "Great Immortal, you think I don't know, but now I'm being roasted on the fire, I can only move forward bravely.

Reward, give me the reward, I am waiting for this reward to save my life!"

"Here you go, here you go!"

The Immortal Jie Yin flicked his whisk again, and four rays of light descended from the sky and landed in front of Chu Zhou.

Chu Zhou took a quick look and found that the first item was five jade slips of different colors with nine holes on them, emitting a faint light.

The voice of Jie Yin Da Xian sounded from the side: "This is a universal five-element true method, one for each of the five elements, respectively belonging to gold, wood, water, fire and earth, which can satisfy the normal cultivation of the five elements.

Don’t underestimate them because they are simple. They may be included in my Heavenly Court and have their own unique features.

First of all, they are pure enough, and the magic power obtained is like sweet spring water. It will not affect the practice of other methods in the later stage. It is the best way to lay the foundation.

Secondly, even if there is no other more suitable method, it is possible to cultivate to the threshold of human immortality with this method alone.

Finally, although this method has fewer changes, it is as clean as a blank sheet of paper. If you want to optimize and improve it, this is the most suitable method as a basis! "

Chu Zhou nodded in approval!

By now, he had long understood that anything that Heaven could produce, even if it was labeled with words like "basic" or "popular," was incomparable good stuff.

With these five methods, Xu Cheng, Yi Huai and others had a way to practice, and Xuanzhen Temple had a real foundation.

Without wasting any words, Chu Zhou stretched out his hand and already held the five jade slips in his hand. A flood of information hit his mind and then gradually faded away.

Just wait for him to go back, and according to the information received, he can write down the method silently. Previously, the basic method of exchanging the "Danqi Fuzhen" was handled in this way.

Of course, this only applies to knowledge, not other physical objects.

His gaze shifted to the second object, which was five formation plates and forty-nine small flags.

They rotate in a very unique way, as if they are connected at all times.

"This is?"

“One of the wonders is the Mountain Protection Formation, also known as the Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Locking Formation.

Although it can only be regarded as the bottom of the mountain protection formation, it can also gather the spiritual energy of the earth veins within a thousand miles and transform it into a huge formation to protect the mountain gate. It has the ability to seal the sky and lock the earth, and its power is quite good. "

"What about this?"

Chu Zhou looked at the third object again. It was a vast-looking training ground, with weapons such as swords, spears, halberds, axes, and hooks on it. There seemed to be human figures swaying on it, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

"This is one of the wonders. The martial arts arena is a collection of equipment and formations. It contains a natural treasure called 'Enlightenment Stone', which is catalyzed by formations.

Human cultivators can improve their understanding by being in it, and can get started faster whether they are practicing martial arts or cultivating magic."

"Then this last kind is the wonder, the secluded quiet room?"

The so-called retreat room looks like a number of holes dug out on the cliff of a mountain, with figures sitting cross-legged inside and light flowing.

"Yes! The retreat room is also a combination of formation and weapon refining. It can gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and flood it into the room. It also has the effect of clearing the mind and eliminating the inner demons.

It is the best choice for closed-door cultivation!"

"Good stuff, all good stuff! Can I have all of them?"

Chu Zhou's eyes lit up when he heard this and he had some unrealistic fantasies, but was met with a roll of the eyes from the Immortal Jie Yin.

"Two out of three is pretty good, so pick it?"

"Choose? What else can I choose? Just the mountain protection formation and the retreat room..."

It's not that the 'martial arts training ground' is bad. In fact, the 'martial arts training ground' can play a big role in the growth of disciples.

In fact, Chu Zhou could now feel that a group of inner disciples, after opening their meridians and gaining magical powers, became unusually clumsy when practicing magic.

It's not that they are too stupid, but they have practiced martial arts so much that they have formed a fixed mindset. So when they suddenly come into contact with magic, or even elixirs, weapons, talismans and arrays, they are a little confused.

Among the current inner disciples of Xuanzhen Temple, nearly fifty have completed the process of drawing Qi into the body and cultivated magical powers. The strongest ones have reached the third or fourth level of Qi drawing.

But there were only five people who could really use some magic, and they only knew one or two of them and didn't seem to be very familiar with them.

It is still a bit far-fetched to expect them to be able to fight with magic.

It’s a pity that compared to this ‘martial arts arena’, the other two wonders of Xuanzhen Temple are more needed.

After Chu Zhou made his choice, Jie Yin Da Xian naturally had no objection and said, "Okay, do you want it now?"

"Of course, the sooner the better!"

"That will cost 5,000 merit points for shipping. I'll deduct that for you."

"What? Wait..."

Chu Zhou stopped immediately, his eyes widened, and asked: "What did you just say, 5,000 merit points, shipping fee, is it so expensive?

Great Immortal, is it easy for me to earn some merits? You want 5,000? That's too much!" "Standard price, have you forgotten the last exchange experience? If it weren't for the secret realm tracking stone, this price would be inevitable.

Of course, you can also wait until you complete [Main Mission 4] and connect with Taixutian, then the shipping fee will be cheaper."

"If I could wait, I wouldn't be in such a hurry."

"Then do you want it or not?"

"Yes, I want it, isn't it? Can you go faster?"

“You can rest assured about this. With the passage we opened last time, this time, it will be much faster!

Exchange now?"

"Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

Chu Zhou hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll see if there's anything else I need.

By the way, Master, besides equipment, wonders and courses, is there anything else on our exchange list?"

"Do you mean?"

"Elixir!"

Chu Zhou hurriedly said: "For example, when building the foundation, wouldn't it be best to have a foundation-building pill? And when forging the golden elixir, are there any pills that can be used?"

“Of course there are pills, even the legendary Nine Revolutions Golden Pill that can turn you into an immortal immediately after swallowing it.

However, with the methods provided to you by the Jieying Hall and the environment created by the methods of the Immortal Realm, these are not necessary.

Of course, if you really want to exchange it, you can do so!"

"Exchange, of course!"

"Okay, you take a look."

A curtain of light unfolded, and many elixirs appeared on it, ranging from Lingbu Powder, Yunling Pills, and Chuyang Pills used in the Qi Induction Realm, to Hun Tian Zao Hua Pills, Xianlu Pills, and Bi Hai Long Yin Pills that can be used by immortals.

In addition, there are also some elixirs with unique effects, such as the anti-aging elixir that can keep one's youth forever, and the shape-changing elixir that can be used by spirit beasts and immortal birds.

Chu Zhou picked for a long time and finally chose a 'Barrier Breaking Pill', which is used for building the foundation and advancing to the Golden Elixir. It can be used to break through barriers and increase the success rate of breaking through the realm.

This one pill alone is comparable to a top-grade magic weapon and is worth ten thousand merit points.

The other is a bottle of elixir needed for cultivation in the late stage of the foundation building stage, called 'Bi Hai Xuan Dan', which can be used to increase mana.

And, a bottle of 'Foundation Building Pills', a total of ten pills.

This was prepared for Xu Cheng and the others. In fact, the four little guys were still young and could not use it much. But for old guys like Taoist Qingjing, Zhongli Linghui, and Feng Yan, it would be hard to say whether they could take this step without the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Products produced by Heaven are naturally all top-quality. The elixirs that can be produced are already the best of their kind, and contain very little toxicity.

In addition, Chu Zhou also picked and chose in the "equipment" and finally chose a top-grade magic weapon, the Xuanwu Flag.

This is a typical defensive magic weapon that can summon the form of Black Tortoise to protect oneself.

Then there are the talismans with the best cost-effectiveness. This time, not only did I buy more in quantity, but I mainly picked high-end products, so I don’t know if the effect can be compared with before.

Of course, I still can’t afford the kind of natal talisman that can be implanted into the body.

There is also a furnace specially used for alchemy. It is not a high-end product, just a mid-grade magical tool, but it is better to have it than not.

There is also talisman paper, talisman ink, a set of talisman pens needed for drawing talismans, and a set of twelve kinds of spiritual plant seeds.

He did not select any high-end ones, which require more environment, but instead chose common spiritual plants and medicines such as purple bamboo rice, Dibao Ganoderma lucidum, Tianqing rice, and Scrophularia ningpoensis.

Because he knew clearly that he could not afford the expensive shipping fee for a second time, so that night, Chu Zhou made a lavish exchange and bought everything he needed, wanted, and could get.

In just one night, he spent as much as 30,000 merit points. If the 5,000 for shipping is added, it would be a huge expense of 35,000 in total.

Even when he woke up the next day, Chu Zhou felt heartbroken. The only good thing was that he had spent a lot of merit points, and the immortal Jie Yin agreed to help expedite the shipment.

However, when the next day really came, Chu Zhou no longer had time to think about anything else.

In fact, with so many martial arts sects visiting him, he didn't have much free time.

As time goes by, Baisha City becomes more and more lively.

Those hotels, restaurants, inns, and even independent courtyards were all occupied by warriors who came from all over the place.

Ji Mingqian even gave up the government office and moved to the mountain of Xuanzhen Temple.

Then, people like the county lieutenant Wang Fugui, the county magistrate Zhao Yuanwai, and the chief clerk Gu Xianming also followed suit, donated their own mansions, and settled down in Xuanzhen Temple.

What, you said they are cowardly?

It is impossible for me to be timid. I just want to better serve the major sects.

Of course, all the food, drink, defecation and consumption items of these warriors in Baisha City all cost money.

This boosted the local economy and allowed the people of Baisha City to make a lot of money.

Of course, when warriors gather together, it is impossible for no conflicts to arise. They may start quarreling after just a few words.

Then, they drew their swords and fought each other!

Xuanzhen Temple called back the twelve inner sect teams that had been formed previously, and then gathered the Tianquan Army to patrol the entire city.

Then, outside the south city, where the Dragon King Temple used to be, there was a huge arena.

If there really is a conflict that is difficult to resolve, then just go up and have a fight. As a warrior, it doesn't matter who is right, whoever has the bigger fist is the one with the right.

It is worth mentioning that later on, in addition to resolving conflicts, this place also became a place to make friends through martial arts and verify what one had learned.

Disciples of Xuanzhen Temple are frequent visitors, because all sects that are far away want to see what the so-called secret martial arts are all about.

What kind of power does the so-called domineering body have!
Needless to say, the result was that the reputation of Xuanzhen Temple became even greater, especially for those who had previously been unwilling to accept it, now they all saw the power of the secret martial arts.

Then, the martial arts optimization project, which was not promoted very well before, now receives a lot of orders.

Chu Zhou didn't do much personally. There was no other way because the price was too high. He could ask the elders of Xuanzhen Temple to do it for him. After attending the course, he could go back and verify it, which would be very good.

In this way, this project brought extremely considerable income to Xuanzhen Temple.

Of course, in Xuanzhen Temple today, the people who are truly qualified to optimize and improve the methods are only Taoist Qingjing, Wei Jinkui, Xu Cheng, Yi Huai and other four people.

They all had their own things to do and couldn't spare any time, so the task of optimizing and improving the method still fell on Chu Zhou.

Just to make a distinction, some of them were changed casually by him, while others were handled by him seriously. Even though they were both completed by him, there is still a huge difference between the two.

However, this is not something that can be accomplished in a day or two, so take your time...

In this way, time passed day by day, and Chu Zhou was looking up at the sky, waiting for the items he had exchanged to arrive.

Waiting made him anxious and irritated!
When the date of the martial arts performance and Dharma talk conference drew closer and he had almost given up, a ray of rainbow light came from the sky and landed on the lonely peak like a meteor.

From afar, it seemed as if a well-known martial arts master was flying in from the sky, but only Chu Zhou knew it.

What was supposed to come finally came!
