Chapter 122 Mingfeng Mountain Plan

Ji An nodded with a smile and replied:

"Thanks to my senior brother, I just had a lucky breakthrough last night."

He had some understanding of the true meaning of the magic spells of Jiamu and Yimu. After verifying each other, his understanding of Qingmu Huasheng Gong also far exceeded that of ordinary cultivators in the early stage of foundation building.

He had no shortage of elixirs and practiced diligently, so he was able to cross two realms in succession within ten years.

His progress is good, but there is still a big gap compared to those real strong guys.

For example, his senior brother Liu Yu broke through to the third level of foundation building five years ago.

Because he was going to participate in the competition, the other party now rarely took elixirs and even deliberately slowed down his practice pace, focusing more on honing his own magic skills.

If you practice too quickly and break through to the middle stage of foundation building before the three sects’ competition, you will have to fight with a group of cultivators at the fifth and sixth levels of foundation building.

That would be a huge disadvantage, as the opponent could gain a lot of advantages just by crushing you with mana.

When Liu Yu said this, Du Huaiyuan, who was present at the time, envied him for a long time.

Everyone else complains that their cultivation level is not improving fast enough, but some people are actually afraid that their cultivation level is improving too fast.

Ye Changqing waved his hands hurriedly and said with a smile:
"Junior brother, you are too modest. I originally thought that being in this land of golden wind and raging fire would slow down your cultivation progress, but now I realize that I was wrong.

The quality of the spiritual charcoal produced by Scarlet Flame Peak in recent years can give us a glimpse into the extent of your understanding of the cultivation method."

From the sect's records, we can see that this junior brother's qualifications are only average. His achievement shows that he has excellent comprehension, which can greatly make up for his lack of qualifications.

As the cultivation level gradually improves, the gap in qualifications between cultivators will be further narrowed, and each other's future will be very bright.

In his opinion, if the situation continues to develop in this way, the other party may have the possibility of breaking through the Chaoyuan period and becoming the decision-maker of the sect.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Ye Changqing pointed at the fruit tree and said:

"These spiritual apricots are of excellent quality. Remember to leave some for me when they are ripe. I will pay with spiritual stones for them."

He also liked to plant spiritual fruit trees in his cave, but he had never cultivated a spiritual apricot tree that could bear such large fruits.

"What's it worth? I'll give some to my senior brother this year."

Ji An smiled and said that a first-grade mid-quality spiritual apricot was not worth many spirit stones, so it would be better to send some to familiar cultivators as a favor.

It will be considered a good thing only after a few years when the fruit trees are cultivated to the first-class quality. At that time, the fruit trees will enter the peak fruit-bearing period and can produce stable income.

However, he still prefers to satisfy his own needs before selling, and he cannot be a miser.

Ji An welcomed the guests to the stone house beside the cold pond. The cave was not suitable for entertaining guests during the day.

Liang Qiu was very perceptive and took out the spiritual charcoal to make a fire and boil some tea, then went out and waited.

"Brother, I heard that the sect is facing increasing resistance in expanding its new base, and has already faced off against groups of Chaoyuan-level demon beasts. What is the specific situation?"

Ye Changqing raised his eyebrows slightly and said:

"Junior brother seems to have stayed at Scarlet Flame Peak all day without going out. He must be well-informed!"

Most people were unaware of the news of encountering a group of Chaoyuan-level demon beasts, and he only learned about it because of his location.

"Brother, you may not have noticed that my fellow disciple Liu Yu is currently on duty at the Law Enforcement Hall.

He told me this news a few days ago after returning to the sect after completing his monster hunting mission."

Ye Changqing stroked his goatee and nodded slightly:
"It's quite unusual that the Ningcui Cliff lineage actually produced a cultivator like Junior Brother Liu who possesses such a high talent for fighting."

Liu Yu made many contributions in the Law Enforcement Hall and received a lot of rewards from the sect. He often went to the Work Hall to hand over tasks, and became familiar with him over time.

He learned from other monks in the Law Enforcement Hall that Liu Yu looked gentle as jade, but was aggressive as fire when fighting, and could often do things that others could not.

The Ningcui Ya lineage is good at alchemy, and now there is a cultivator with superb fighting ability. In the future, their influence in the sect will be further expanded.

Ye Changqing coughed lightly and continued:

"I came here today with the intention of telling my junior brother something.

The sect's advancement in the Ten Thousand Mountains stopped at the Evil Wolf Valley and Mingfeng Mountain. There were several huge groups of wolf monsters in these two places.

Beyond Mingfeng Mountain is the hunting range of the Golden-winged Eagle clan.

Wolf monsters have always been the main force of demonic disasters. If we can eradicate the wolf monsters here, we will face less demonic disasters in the future.

But when we attacked the wolf demon, the Golden-winged Eagle clan, who had a hostile relationship with the wolf demon, also attacked us, so our advance came to a halt."

There is a naked law of the jungle among the monsters. The golden-winged eagle clan often preys on wolf monsters, and the more powerful wolf monsters will also hunt golden-winged eagles. The hatred between the two clans is deep.

Now they are actually helping each other, it seems that the monsters are beginning to form an alliance.

As he spoke, he dipped his finger in water and drew a rough map:

"Mingfeng Mountain is a second-grade, superior spiritual vein. If we can seize it and install a mountain protection formation, the stronghold we have occupied for all these years will have a strong support point.

Not only us, Luofeng Valley and Yuanhe Mountain have also advanced here one after another. Junior brother, do you understand what I mean?"

Ji An's eyes dropped, and he pondered:

"The ancestors of several sects should have planned to seize this spiritual vein long ago. This is equivalent to the first scene of the monster disaster outbreak being in the monster beast's territory." His eyes became bright and he said solemnly:

"If my guess is correct, the three sects intend to build a massive market similar to Qingyun Fairy City in Mingfeng Mountain, promising benefits to lure a large number of independent cultivators there."

Ji An felt that the situation was becoming clearer. The cultivators in Central Continent used Western Continent as a strategic buffer, while the sects in Western Continent wanted to use the many independent cultivators as a strategic buffer to keep the enemy out of their sphere of influence and minimize the impact on the sects' gates.

The various immortal cultivation families will probably add fuel to the fire in this matter, and most of the independent cultivators will move forward according to the sect's promotion for the sake of profit.

Ye Changqing's long gray eyebrows twitched a few times, and he exclaimed in admiration:

"That's my guess, but it's not easy to attack Mingfeng Mountain. There are several demon kings in the late Chaoyuan stage among the wolf demon tribe.

After passing Mingfeng Mountain, you will enter the core area of ​​the Ten Thousand Mountains.

If the sect's ancestor steps in, it will likely lead to an attack from the Golden Core Stage Demon Kings, and the demonic disaster may even break out prematurely."

"The battle cannot be dragged on for too long and must be resolved quickly, otherwise it will attract the attention of the demon king deep in the mountains.

The ancestors of each sect could only hold the fort, and the battle was centered on the Chaoyuan-stage cultivators. A large number of foundation-building-stage cultivators were mobilized to participate in the battle, and at the same time, they urged each immortal cultivation family to send personnel to participate in the battle.

Although Junior Brother is a spiritual farmer, he has already reached the third level of foundation building. There is a high probability that he will be recruited, so it is best to make plans early. "

There will inevitably be sacrifices in battle, and a large number of independent cultivators cannot be recruited for a decisive battle. Otherwise, if the harsh situation is exposed in advance, there will be fewer independent cultivators willing to go to the New Immortal City, which will be very unfavorable for future plans.

The sect’s idea is to take on the tough tasks themselves and give more benefits to independent practitioners.

If this war goes smoothly, a huge amount of demon beast inner core will surely be harvested. Then it will be the time for all sects to use demon core to replace the main ingredients of foundation-building pills and start refining pills.

Using the Foundation Establishment Pill as bait will inevitably cause the independent cultivators to go crazy and attract a large number of independent cultivators to the New Immortal City.

Once they take the bait, it will be impossible for them to escape.

There was a divine light in Ji An's eyes. Now he was not afraid of fighting. He just needed to prepare a few more handy magic weapons.

At this time, he had quite a few second-level spiritual objects in his hands, so he could find someone to refine spiritual weapons in one go.

A "gurgling" sound was heard, and the spiritual spring water had boiled.

Ji An brewed tea, poured two cups and sent one away, saying in a deep voice:
"Brother, when do you think the sect will take action?"

Ye Changqing took the teacup, sniffed the fragrant tea aroma, and a hint of intoxicated smile appeared at the corner of his lips:

“It will take at least two to three years of preparation, so I still have time to hone my fighting skills.

My suggestion is to purchase a few more defensive magic weapons, and not seek to achieve any success in battle, but to avoid any mistakes."

The sect will distribute numerous rewards based on combat performance, after all, it is a major event that drives disciples to fight hard.

He didn't think Ji An would have any outstanding performance in the battle, as the opponent's spiritual farming level was high and his cultivation was advanced.

If he also has a strong talent for fighting, how will others survive?

Ji An laughed and said:
"Brother, this method is quite to my liking."

He now has the Golden Armor Technique and the Rock Mountain Technique combined, giving him amazing defense. If he can customize a defensive spiritual weapon, he should not be afraid of attacks from monsters in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

This is the defensive ability he possesses when he does not reveal the Golden Light Technique. If he uses all his means, he expects that he will be able to resist the siege of several late Foundation Establishment stage monsters for a short period of time.

Ye Changqing was very satisfied that the other party listened to him, and took out a storage bag with a smile:

"Here are 2250 pre-cut animal hides, as well as sufficient talisman ink and talisman pens. I'll come back in three months to collect 900 Explosive Flame Talismans.

Junior Brother, you can buy more materials for making talismans in the future, and use them to make up for the lack of offensive means in battle."

"I think so too."

Ji An handed over the storage bag hanging on his waist, took out his identity jade token, and said:

"Inside are 750 high-grade Explosive Flame Talismans for completing the last mission. Brother, please give them a try."

After checking the quantity, Ye Changqing took out the spirit disk, added the corresponding contribution points to the jade token, and left a record of the task.

He returned the jade token and said with a smile:
"Junior brother has accumulated quite a lot of contribution points over the years, currently totaling 380,000."

Ji An grinned. For the past ten years, he had almost no money coming in and no money going out. His only expense was buying elixirs and trading them with Li Lingyu for spirit stones.

"It seems like a lot, but it's used up quickly. When practicing in the middle stage of foundation building, you need to refine various spiritual objects to practice the exercises. This is a long-term and huge expense."

Because of the sect's mandatory missions, the prices of all kinds of spiritual objects are more than double what they were a decade ago.

Using contribution points to exchange spiritual objects from the sect's treasury is extremely expensive.

Ye Changqing laughed twice and said mysteriously:

"When Junior Brother breaks through to the middle stage of foundation building, perhaps there will be no such troubles."

　Thank you all for your comments. After re-reading it, it does seem unusual that the situation was not reported to the sect, as there was already a plan to plug the loophole.

　　In addition, please recommend some fairy tale books with exciting and wonderful descriptions of magic battles. Magic battles are an unavoidable part and I really need to catch up on it. I have already been looking for books that I thought were good in the past to learn from them.
