Chapter 168 Demonic Conflict

In the valley, the three demon cultivators quickly made a decision and prepared to go back to the mountain to see their master. They couldn't always earn spirit stones outside, and they had to show respect to their master.

As a demon cultivator, it is a terrible thing to be disrespectful to the master.

"Junior Sister Hua, Uncle Yue Po came to find my master this time, but what's the important matter?"

After the three flew out of the valley together, Wang Xiong looked at the female cultivator in the flower basket with envy. As for the male cultivator next to the female cultivator, he ignored him directly.

Little white face, if he didn't have some relationship, he would have killed him directly.

Hua Yueyao in the flower basket covered her mouth and chuckled, "Brother Xiong, aren't you asking knowingly?"

As she said, she made a tearful look.

"Yueyao came to ask Brother Xiong for protection."

Wang Xiong raised his eyebrows and immediately thought of the rumors in Tianzhu Mountain, "What are you talking about, Junior Sister Hua? Don't you have a good senior brother by your side?"

"A good senior brother is not good enough. He is not as strong as Brother Xiong. In the days to come, I will rely on Brother Xiong for protection."

Hua Yueyao covered her face with her hands and sobbed softly.

After a few breaths, perhaps she felt that this was too fake. They were all practicing magic, so it was not new to pretend like this.

Then, the flower basket that Hua Yueyao sat on suddenly shrank and fell into her hair to become a head flower.

Then, the figure flashed and leaned on Wang Xiong.

"Brother Xiong is really annoying. You ask even though you know the answer. Now the bloodthirsty old demon is causing chaos in Tianzhu Mountain. He kills female cultivators regardless of whether they are righteous or evil. My master is also a woman, so I can only ask Brother Xiong's master, Uncle Qishan, to take care of her."

Wang Xiong grabbed two handfuls of the figure that came close to him without hesitation, and even put them on his nose to smell them carefully.

"The bloodthirsty old demon is doing evil and has gone crazy. We don't need to do anything. I believe it won't take long for the righteous cultivators to surround and kill him."

The bloodthirsty old demon's real name is Yuan Ling Zhenren. In recent years, this guy has hunted down two female Jindan demon cultivators.

It is rumored that he has obtained a mysterious magic method. His strength is comparable to that of the late Jindan in the middle Jindan period. Looking at the Tianzhu Mountain mining area, the realm of the late Jindan, whether it is the righteous or the evil, is already the top master.

As a rare female Jindan, Hua Yueyao's master, the old woman Yue Po, had to find cultivators of the same level to protect herself.

"Brother Xiong..."

"Hmph!"

Just when Hua Yueyao was leaning against Wang Xiong, a cold snort sounded, it was Hua Yueyao's senior brother Lin Yang.

Seeing this, Wang Xiong stretched out his big hand and grabbed Hua Yueyao in the valley below.

"Brother Xiong, your hands are so rough..."

Seeing this, Lin Yang cursed inwardly, and a flash of spiritual light flashed on his body and flew away.

"Junior Sister Hua, your senior brother seems to be angry."

"Don't worry about him, Brother Xiong, where is your hand."

...

"Bitch."

Lin Yang cursed inwardly while fleeing away, with a flash of anger in his eyes.

But thinking of his junior sister's method of sucking marrow and squeezing bones, he showed a sneer again.

Then, he turned around and headed towards the main mining city of Yunshang.

Their masters are currently hiding near the main mining city of Yunshang. The main reason is that the reputation of the old demon Yuanling is far-reaching. As demon cultivators, the two can only take shelter in the city where the righteous sect is located.

…

"The trouble of the demon cultivators."

In the Redwood Mining City, Shen Lian sat in a teahouse in the mining city. He transformed into an old man and asked about the high-level spider silk in the city.

The Tianzhu Mountains do produce high-level spider silk, but this thing is also a kind of spiritual object that is confiscated by the Yunshang Sect, and it is not easy to see in the small mining city.

In addition to inquiring about the resources he needs, he also heard about the internal strife of the demon cultivators in Tianzhu Mountain.

It's not that he deliberately inquired, but the news spread very widely, even among ordinary foundation-building cultivators.

The cause of the incident was that two female Jindan cultivators in Tianzhu Mountain were killed by an old demon named Yuan Ling.

Whether Tianzhu Mountain is in chaos or not, except for the monsters, it is the demon cultivators who have the final say.

Many cultivators called for taking this opportunity to clean up the demon cultivators in Tianzhu Mountain, but the calls were all for ordinary foundation-building cultivators, and no sect has jumped out to call for it.

Suppressing the news, Shen Lian took advantage of the night to leave the Redwood Mining City. This time he did not even take the flying boat, but used the Five Elements Escape Technique directly.

He entered three mining cities along the way and confirmed a fact again, that is, except for the third-level spiritual objects intercepted by the major sects, the rest were transported to the Yunshang Main Mining City.

The Yunshang Sect has set rules for each sect, and there is a fixed number of third-level spiritual objects that need to be handed in every hundred years.

If you want third-level spider silk or silk, you can only go to the Yunshang Main Mining City.

And the Muyang Mountain where the Cave Heaven Stone is located is also on the other side of the Yunshang Main Mining City.

Three months later.

Outside the Yunshang Main Mining City.

In a remote valley, Shen Lian casually shot out a golden and white flame, and in front of him was a cultivator with eyes wide open and an unbelievable look.

This cultivator was one of the three demon cultivators who wanted to plot against him before.

According to the soul search, this person's name is Lin Yang, and he is a disciple of the old demon seat Yue Po in Caishiji, Tianzhu Mountain.

Shen Lian didn't expect to run into someone he knew when he was getting close to the main mining city of Yunshang.

The three people ran away quickly after missing the attack, so he didn't chase them in order to find out why he was exposed. He didn't expect that the world of immortal cultivation is so big that they would always meet each other somewhere.

When they bumped into each other, Shen Lian didn't hesitate and quickly took the person away.

"As expected of a demon cultivator who has no taboos, he ran to hide near the city built by the righteous sect."

After reading Lin Yang's memory, Shen Lian couldn't help but sigh. This old demon Yuan Ling was too powerful. He scared all the cultivators who practiced the demon path.

"Specializing in catching female cultivators."

This made Shen Lian's eyebrows raised, and he thought of Lianzhen Mo Gong.

It seems that Tianzhu Mountain has been in chaos recently.

...

Qingyu Mine City.

More than half a month later, Shen Lian appeared in a city built entirely of Qingyu ore.

After learning that there was an old demon hiding outside Yunshang Mine City, he decided to steal the ore.

Of course, he didn't go around the city, but went to Yunshang Main Mine City first. Unfortunately, he still didn't buy the third-level spider silk or silk.

After hitting a snag, Shen Lian ran directly to Qingyu Mine City.

Green jade is used in large quantities in the world of immortal cultivation. Whether it is building a city or a cave, it needs to be mined in large quantities. This kind of stone has a good conductive effect on spiritual energy.

Especially the third-level green jade, which is the main material for the ancestral tombs and main halls of major Jindan sects.

After arriving at the Green Jade Mine City, Shen Lian didn't need to ask at all, and saw Muyang Mountain directly.

This is a brown mountain standing 1,500 miles outside the Green Jade Mine City. The top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist. At first glance, it looks ordinary and is no different from many mountains in the Tianzhu Mountain mining area.

In the next few days, Shen Lian tried to pass by by chance, but found a clue.

There is a formation guarding the deep ground under this mountain, and there is also a market named Qianqiu at the foot of the mountain.

The market is very large, with buildings and pavilions rising and falling. The main building in the middle is hundreds of feet high and stands proudly, with the words "Qianqiu" on it.

The formations deep in the ground under Muyang Mountain are very dense, and the prohibitions are very spiritual. It is not easy to sneak in from the outside. Shen Lian gave up after a brief attempt.

It seems that Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce has made great efforts to protect the cave stone.

This made Shen Lian very sad. The dignified cultivation world has no sincerity at all.

Without finding a suitable entrance, he fell directly into the market and lived there.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, more than 20 jade slips appeared in his hand.

These jade slips all contain maps of the Tianzhu Mountain mining area. Some of them were purchased by him in different mining cities, and some were borrowed from fellow Taoists.

The contents of these jade slips are generally the same, but because they come from different chambers of commerce, the details are different.

Shen Lian compared the mining area maps in these jade slips, trying to find the location of the cloud forest.

But there is no cloud forest on these jade slip mining area maps, but there are a lot of places with clouds, fog and forests.

This means that the Cloud Forest mentioned by the elder of Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce is most likely the name given by Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce itself based on the landform.

Looking at Tianzhu Mountain, there are places with clouds and fog everywhere, which is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

If you can't find the exact location, you can only stick to Muyang Mountain.

Half a month later.

After repeated investigations on Muyang Mountain without results, Shen Lian entered the Qianqiu Building where Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce is located.

"Senior, please come in."

As soon as he entered the door, he was enveloped by rich spiritual energy. The ground was paved with second-level green jade, and some five-element ore borders were embedded.

With a sweep of his mind, he sensed that a second-level spirit gathering array was arranged under the green jade, and the means of arranging the array were extremely clever, allowing the spiritual energy to continue to derive in the form of mist, and the spiritual energy that was not absorbed was taken back underground.

Under the guidance of the servant, Shen Lian first met the steward, who sensed his strength, and soon the shopkeeper came out.

"Daoyou, the elegant room on the third floor."

After entering the third floor, the shopkeeper invited Shen Lian in first, and then clapped his hands gently.

Suddenly, the sound of stringed instruments rang out.

Shen Lian squinted his eyes and found that behind a light gauze curtain in the elegant room, there were seven slender figures playing the instruments vigorously.

"Daoyou, I am Hong Le, the shopkeeper of Qianqiu Tower here."

First, he introduced himself, and then said: "Daoyou, if you need any spiritual objects, please ask. My Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce cannot provide them here in the mining area, and other chambers of commerce may be powerless."

When saying this, Hong Le had a touch of pride, as if Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce belonged to him, a ninth-level foundation-building cultivator.

"Do you have any third-level spiritual objects?"

Shen Lian did not care about Hong Le's pride, because he really had the strength.

"Third-level spiritual objects."

Hong Le raised his eyebrows, and it was really a big deal.

"Yes, I wonder if you need third-level ore, third-level animal skin, or third-level spiritual medicine."

As a merchant organization, Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce, even if the internal management and so on are all based on the realm, the inherent performance model remains unchanged.

The Chamber of Commerce has so many branches in various places, so it is natural to manage them with clear rewards and punishments.

How to reward?

That depends on who has made the greatest contribution to the Chamber of Commerce.

If the contribution is high, the Chamber of Commerce will grant spiritual objects for cultivation. Hongle did not think about being promoted to Jindan, and he just needed to accumulate enough contribution points to exchange for a third-level demon pill.

Another thing is to leave this small market and at least go to a mining city to be the shopkeeper.

His place is really too embarrassing. There is Qianqiu Tower in the nearby Qingyu Mining City, which is more majestic than his place.

Although they are all branch buildings, in the minds of many people, his Qianqiu Tower is a branch of Qianqiu Tower in Qingyu Mining City.

Who can he go to for justice.

"Third-level Tiancan Silk."

Hongle, who was originally proud, was stunned.

He suspected that Shen Lian was looking for trouble.

"Fellow Daoist, this is really not available. Spiritual objects such as third-level silk and spider silk are among the spiritual objects that Yunshang Sect specifically instructed to be handed over."

"Most of these spiritual objects obtained from the monsters in the mining area are in the hands of Yunshang Sect. If you want them, you can go to the Yunshang Tower in the main mining city to have a look."

"Where do I add spiritual stones?"

Shen Lian spoke softly. Of course he knew Yunshang Tower.

That was the core of Yunshang Sect's control of the Tianzhu Mountain mining area. There were always Jindan Dacheng monks in charge all year round.

His purpose was very simple, just to throw more spiritual stones and see.

This place was far away from the main mining city. It was easy to avoid Yunshang Sect by trading privately. He didn't believe that all the major sects were so honest. If Yunshang Sect said to hand them over, they would hand them over.

In this case, the third-level robes on some Jindan real people fell from the sky.

Thinking of this, Shen Lian suddenly had an idea.

Third-level Tiancan Silk Robe!

"Daoyou, you are making things difficult for me."

Hongle shook his head and said embarrassedly: "Even if my chamber of commerce has reserved Tiancan silk, do you think it will fall into my hands to sell?"

Looking at Hongle's appearance, and then looking at this remote market outside the city.

Shen Lian also understood that the shopkeeper Hongle was also an unsuccessful person.

"If you know a few elders of my chamber of commerce, you may be able to obtain such spiritual objects, but..."

As he said, Hongle looked at Shen Lian, and his meaning was very clear.

The elders of Qianqiu Chamber of Commerce are all fake pills, and they are not even up to the foundation building stage.

"Forget it, the elders of your chamber of commerce are real people, and I, a casual cultivator, have no chance to see the immortal face."

Shen Lian shook his head lightly, and also showed a hint of disappointment.

Then, he began to discuss the third-level spiritual medicine with the shopkeeper again.

At the same time, the divine consciousness carefully spread out and went up along the elegant room on the third floor.

Under the divine consciousness, the strongest person in the entire Qianqiu Building is the shopkeeper in front of him, and there are also several managers at the third and fourth levels of foundation building.

Further down are the servants at the Qi training level.

After checking that there is no problem upstairs, Shen Lian's divine consciousness sank downwards.

With just a preliminary sense, he realized that this Qianqiu Building is the core of the formation under the Muyang Mountain behind.

The Qianqiu Building, which is a hundred feet high on the ground, is another hundred feet underground, and it is also a tower-shaped underground, getting smaller as it goes down, like a wedge piercing into the ground.

The position of the top of the tower, a hundred feet below, is shrouded in a hazy mist, exuding a blazing spiritual energy.

Indistinctly, there is a slowly rotating earth ball in the mist, and a series of earthy yellow spiritual light like gossamer overflows from the earth ball and spreads into the formation restrictions around.

Let me say that starting from tomorrow, the update will be unstable for about a week. The author's wife needs to have an operation, and she needs to run back and forth to the hospital during this period. Tomorrow's update will also be moved to the evening, and there will be no update at 12 noon.
