Chapter 8 Lingji Pavilion, the Arrogant Jiang Ren
In the Hermit Valley, there are not only tens of thousands of casual cultivators living there, but also many major sects stationed here.
After all, there are such a large number of casual cultivators, many of whom have unfathomable cultivation levels. They are probably experts from outside the world, and the major sects also want to win them over.
Lingji Pavilion is a medium-sized sect with disciples stationed in Hermit Valley. The monks in Lingji Pavilion are not good at attacking and killing, but specialize in creating formations.
Take a peek into the world and use it for your own use.
The monks in the Hermitage Valley can come here to exchange their spiritual stones for the formations they want, or they can directly become a disciple and leave the Hermitage Valley to go to the Lingji Pavilion Sect to become a disciple and enjoy the cultivation resources.
Although she didn't have any spiritual stones on hand, Ning Wuxie planned to ask about the situation first before making any plans.
Because he was worried about Xuan'er being alone at home, Ning Wuxie took her to a courtyard in the Immortal Hidden Area of Hermit Valley.
"Junior Ning Wuxie, please see the elder of Lingji Pavilion in the valley." Ning Wuxie stood outside the door and respectfully announced inside.
"Come in..." A round and long old voice came from the courtyard. Although the momentum was not overwhelming, the power of the soul contained in it was also extremely powerful.
Ning Wuxie was shocked, knowing that there was a powerful person in charge of this small courtyard.
"Thank you, senior." Ning Wuxie bowed his thanks again and led Xuan'er into the courtyard gate.
"Backyard..." The old breath reminded again.
Ning Wuxie went straight in and passed through many halls. He found that the courtyard was extremely deep. He picked up Xuan'er and came to the backyard.
Under a huge sycamore tree, an old man in black robes was lying on a wicker chair, and sitting on a stone bench next to him was a handsome young monk in white clothes.
Ning Wuxie stepped forward, and before he could salute, he heard the young monk make a joking voice: "Refining Qi?"
"You're just refining qi, what are you doing in Lingji Pavilion?"
"I also brought a small oil bottle." He looked at Xuan'er beside Ning Wuxie, as if he was very unhappy that someone was disturbing him.
Xuan'er's pretty face was slightly cold, she looked at him with hostile eyes, and grabbed Ning Wuxie's little hand and pressed a little harder.
Ning Wuxie was not surprised by this man's inexplicable malice.
The Hermit Valley is full of loose cultivators who don't know each other, have no feelings for each other, and have to be wary of each other, just like the rivers and lakes.
If in an ordinary sect, no matter how bad the cultivation level is, they are still considered to be members of the same sect, and there will be some concern about face, but here, bullying the weak with the strong is commonplace.
Ning Wuxie ignored him and bowed to the old man lying on the wicker chair: "Junior Ning Wuxie, I have met the elder."
The old man nodded, and Ning Wuxie stood up straight and stopped talking.
"You Qi Refining monk, why don't you say hello to me?!"
The young man in white waited for a while, but he didn't wait until Ning Wuxie said hello to him!
His eyebrows suddenly rose, his eyes widened and he yelled.
"I just don't want to say hello to you." Ning Wuxie said lightly.
"?!" The young man in white was horrified again.
"I feel like you have no quality."
"Fart!" The young man in white stood up with a groan.
"I'm afraid you don't know my name, Jiang Ren. Do you know who I am?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know."
Ning Wuxie looked impatient, as if the person in front of her was a little guy whose name was not worth remembering.
"You!" Jiang Ren's face turned red, his body was trembling and he couldn't speak.
How dare a little Qi-refining monk disrespect himself like this!
He had just broken through the golden elixir stage yesterday, and he immediately came to ask Elder Xuanji for the precious sword array from Lingji Pavilion.
But he came here with high hopes and spent a long time, but Elder Xuanji just refused to give it to him, which made him feel angry.
When I saw a Qi refining monk, I wished I could vent all my Qi on him.
But this little Qi Lian has such hard bones that he dares to fight with me!
"Okay, okay, Jiang Ren, don't embarrass this junior, you can go back first."
The old man on the wicker chair came out to smooth things over.
When Jiang Ren pressed Ning Wuxie just now, there was a look of displeasure in his eyes. Later, when he saw that Ning Wuxie looked calm and composed, not taking Jiang Ren seriously at all, but instead retorted, he couldn't help but feel happy.
This boy is a bit interesting.
But on the surface, he was there and didn't show it at all.
Hearing his words, Jiang Ren was also stunned, and then changed to a respectful expression.
"Elder Xuanji, what happened with my Heart Sword Formation that day..."
"The value of the Tianxin Sword Formation is precious, and it cannot be determined now. Although you have enough spirit stones, your cultivation is still weak and you cannot use your full strength. It is a waste to hold it."
Elder Xuanji rejected Jiang Ren half tactfully and half bluntly.
When Jiang Ren heard this, his face was slightly ferocious, showing a look of reluctance, but in the end he did not dare to say anything in front of Elder Xuanji.
This is a big shot in the Nascent Soul Realm, and his cultivation level is far above him!
"This little friend Ning Wuxie, why are you here?"
Seeing that Jiang Ren remained silent, Elder Xuanji turned to ask Xiang Ning Wuxie.
Jiang Ren, who was angry and tangled in his heart, immediately raised his head when he heard Ning Wuxie's name and looked at him angrily!
"Junior wants to obtain a formation that can cover Qi."
"Concealing the Qi machine?"
"You are a qi refiner, so what's the use of the formation to cover up the qi machine? Do you have any treasures on your body that you are afraid of being plotted against?"
Ning Wuxie laughed and casually touched Xuan'er's head.
"The road to spiritual practice is difficult. You are going against nature. There are evil people around in the world, so you can't be too careful."
"Hahaha, it's quite mysterious."
Elder Xuanji laughed. He admired the way Ning Wuxie spoke. Although he was young, he did not seem like a young man who was complaining without reason.
But Jiang Ren, who was standing by, became more and more upset the more he listened. He stared at Ning Wuxie with contempt and resentment.
"What level of formation do you want to exchange for, my friend Wuxie? I have several ordinary formations that can cover the aura, as well as several spiritual and Taoist formations. It depends on whether you have enough spiritual stones."
Spirit stones are jades mined from nature that contain spiritual power. They are the hard currency for transactions between cultivators.
"Junior, I would like to ask the elder for the highest level of formation here." Ning Wuxie said.
The awakening of the immortal spirit body is extraordinary. Since the history of the human race has cultivated, there have been only five immortal spirit bodies recorded.
All of these people are also outstanding and talented. They either stand out from the crowd and become a legend of a generation, or lead the trend for thousands of years. In the end, all of them broke through the void and ascended to other larger and wider worlds.
Therefore, the secret of the immortal body has never been thoroughly explored. But when Ning Wuxie saw the great law lingering around Xuan'er, he immediately understood that the mystery and power of this immortal body far exceeded his previous imagination!
Therefore, as he said, it is not too careful, and the highest level of formation must be used. Otherwise, it is difficult to hide the vision and breath of Xuan'er when she awakens!
Hearing Ning Wuxie's words, Elder Xuanji and Jiang Ren were shocked.
"You?! You are a broken Qi refining, what high-level formation do you need! Can you afford it!"
"I'm afraid you are here to make fun of Elder Xuanji!"
Jiang Ren blurted out, with contempt on his face.
Elder Xuanji frowned: "Jiang Ren, didn't I ask you to leave first?"
The arrogance on Jiang Ren's face froze, and he bowed again.
"Uh... Junior, I'm not worried that this little Qi-refining person with unknown background will deceive you..."
"You also said that he is a little Qi-refining person. How come he can't deceive you, but he can deceive me?!"
Elder Xuanji's face became even more unhappy when he heard this.
"No, no, no, I don't mean that..."
Jiang Ren lowered his head to the ground, his face full of fear and trepidation.
Elder Xuanji wanted to say more and drive him out, but thinking about the power behind him, he finally turned into a cold snort.
He calmed his expression and turned to Ning Wuxie: "My friend, I don't want to hit you, but the fact is that as Jiang Ren said, you can hardly afford it."
"I do have an immortal formation here, which can isolate all the auras in the formation. Even the Mahayana can hardly explore it. The value..."
"Eighty thousand spirit stones."
Hearing this, even Ning Wuxie was shocked.
Eighty thousand, this is too expensive.
Ning Wuxie actually knew that the price of a true immortal array was far more than this, often tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. The Jueyun Fuqi Array was so cheap because it was just a finished array, with low cost, small range, and no combat function.
But even so, 80,000 was a sky-high price for him now.
"The junior knows, I hope the senior will keep it for me. Ning Wuxie will definitely come to exchange it within half a month."
"Haha, that's fine. Few people can afford such a precious array." Elder Xuanji smiled and waved his hand.
Seeing him say this, Ning Wuxie was relieved. The next task was to make money.
There were often various tasks issued in the Hermit Valley, from sects or other casual cultivators, or even the Hermit Valley official, involving finding objects, hunting monsters, collecting herbs, and other immortal arts.
For Ning Wuxie, the simplest one was of course hunting monsters.
But even with his current demon-like cultivation speed and the seven-colored true essence condensed with the help of Xuan'er, it was really a bit difficult to save 80,000 spirit stones within half a month.
Ning Wuxie thought, if it really doesn't work, he will just take on murders, which can cost hundreds or thousands of dollars.
He took Xuan'er's hand and planned to leave after paying his respects.
But at this moment, Jiang Ren, who had been silent after being reprimanded, suddenly spoke.
"Elder Xuanji, I suddenly remembered that my sister is also in urgent need of a formation to conceal her energy. Please give me that immortal formation."
