Chapter 24: Dan Xiu's Journey
Ye Ling expressed satisfaction with everything Li Bao had done, nodded and said, "Very good, just do it! Recently, Zhou Chong's suspicion of the old thief about me has not decreased?"
Speaking of this, Ye Ling's eyes glowed with a cold light, which made Li Bao shiver involuntarily.
Li Bao sighed with a bitter face: "Back to the master, Zhou Chong, this damn old guy, is as suspicious as ever! It's all because he is too suspicious, always suspecting that the master has obtained a set of exercises against the sky, and also said that with the master's ordinary qualifications, the cultivation speed should not be so fast!"
Ye Ling sneered in his heart, seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, he allowed him to continue.
Li Bao said hesitantly: "The most important thing is that Zhou Chong, this old guy, is suspicious and suspicious, but he is worried, fortunately the master is the sect master's personal disciple, if he was replaced by an ordinary inner disciple, he would have poisoned the master a long time ago!
Ye Ling had already anticipated this when he showed his strength in the Great Competition of Outer Disciples.
Seeing Li Bao's sad face, Ye Ling encouraged: "Go ahead! Continue to deal with Zhou Chong's old thief, it is best for you to stay by his side." If he presses it too hard, you can say that the exercises I practice are the big road goods bought from the stalls on Xuanwu Avenue in Fengqiao Town! It is the ancient exercises, Haotian Jue! Say it is okay to give him! You can even give the old thief a copy, hahaha!"
Ye Ling laughed indulgently, facing the pressure of Zhou Chong's old thief, not only did not make Ye Ling feel afraid, but instead stimulated the unyielding rebellion in his bones!
Li Bao seemed to be deeply infected by his master, and when he saw his master's open-mindedness and uninhibited mind, his confidence doubled for a while! Looking at his master's eyes, he was full of fanatical reverence!
After leaving Li Bao, Ye Ling calmed down and fell into deep thought:
"The Star Crystal of the Immortal Mansion Picking the Star Cliff will take more than a month to resume use, and then I will cultivate the Haotian Technique, and strive to advance from the fourth layer of Qi cultivation to the fifth layer of Qi cultivation in one breath! In this more than a month of time, I can't be idle, at least I have to cultivate to the powerhouse of the same level! In addition, in addition to the daily cultivation of consolidating the foundation and quenching the body of the pill, I also have to study the Medicinal Herb Illustrated Book more, and strive to be not weaker than other inner disciples on the way to collecting medicine and refining pills. ”
At this moment, Ye Ling is not only limited to the improvement of cultivation, but also relies on the convenient conditions brought by the Immortal Mansion Lingtian to achieve proud results on the way to alchemy!
As a sect that mainly collects medicine and alchemy, the identity and status of the disciples of the sect are not only related to cultivation, but also have a great relationship with the achievements of alchemy.
It is also a small cultivation of qi, and the alchemy disciples are definitely much more important than the medicine picking disciples!
If an alchemy master appears in the sect, it will be more valuable than a strong person in the late stage of foundation building! Because the alchemy master can use a limited amount of spirit grass to refine more pills for the sect, he will naturally be protected by the sect, and even attract the attention of the Tiandan Immortal Sect!
Ye Ling thought to himself that he was in cultivation, and he couldn't get rid of Zhou Chong's old thief for a while, and the only thing that had any hope of achieving results in a short period of time was medicine collection and alchemy!
The journey of collecting medicine and alchemy, starting from the disciple of medicine picking, and when the knowledge and experience of medicine collection reaches a certain level, he will advance to the medicine collector, and then learn alchemy and become an alchemy disciple.
Ye Ling was a disciple of medicine collection when he was in the outer gate, and he often took over the sect's medicine collection tasks to earn spirit stones and maintain his cultivation. Since then, Ye Ling has laid a solid foundation, which is conducive to his future development in the field of medicine collection and alchemy.
Now that Ye Ling has the Immortal Mansion Spirit Field, he can grow the best spirit grass infinitely! Therefore, as long as Ye Ling is promoted to a medicine collector and learns alchemy, he will become an alchemist or even an alchemy master in the future, just around the corner!
Ye Ling was looking forward to such a future! Once he was promoted to an alchemy master, not only would the sect master be impressed by him, but even the whole medicine valley and even the Heavenly Pill Immortal Sect would have to pay him enough attention! At that time, even if Zhou Chong's old thief wanted to be unfavorable to himself, he would have nothing to do.
Therefore, while Ye Ling was cultivating in the Nangu Bamboo House, he did not forget to study the Illustrated Book of Medicinal Herbs and became familiar with the medicinal properties and effects of various spiritual herbs.
When the sun set, Sun Erhu rushed back to the Nangu Medicine Garden and reported to Ye Ling.
After receiving Ye Ling's nod and approval, Sun Erhu stepped into the bamboo house, his face full of excitement and excitement, and said endlessly: "Senior Brother Ye! Something has happened! Do you know? Just yesterday, Tang Rui, the young sect master of the Southern Saint Sect, went out to cultivate and fell unexpectedly! Now that the city is full of wind and rain, the streets and alleys of Fengqiao Town are talking about this matter. ”
Ye Ling was not surprised at all, but he still showed a deserved look of surprise, and said curiously: "Oh? There is such a thing! Let's talk about it carefully! Tang Rui is dead, what is his reaction to Tang Xiong? As far as I know, Tang Xiong is the strongest of the five major sects around Fengqiao Town, and he has the cultivation of the ninth layer of foundation building. Tang Xiong was furious, he was afraid that no one in the entire Fengqiao Town would be able to stop him!"
Sun Erhu is full of energy, as if he was born to inquire about the news of the gossip, especially the flood that seems to have burst the embankment, and his eyebrows are dancing and elated:
"It is said that the Southern Saint Sect Sect Sect Leader Tang Xiong went crazy, and almost the entire Southern Saint Sect was dispatched! Ordered people to search for the bones of the young sect master everywhere in the Changxi Plain, and finally found the relics of the young sect master Tang Rui in the demon crocodile cave by the Changxi River, and determined that Tang Rui and the others were eaten by the third-order demon crocodile king. This is called self-inflicted iniquity, and you can't live! The heavenly net is magnificent, and it is negligent but not leaky! The sky has eyes, and finally the first disciple of the Southern Holy Sect has become a thing in the belly of the demon crocodile. ”
Ye Ling was secretly happy in his heart, he didn't expect the turmoil to pass so quickly, and he could go out to collect medicine again. At the same time, Ye Ling was also secretly wondering, could it be that the top-grade toothed leaf vine he left in the Demon Crocodile Cave did not attract the attention of the people of the Southern Saint Sect? Of course, there was also a possibility, that it was believed that the young sect master of the Southern Saint Sect had arranged it when they were hunting the demon crocodile.
As for the toothed leaf vine wrapped around Tang Rui and the others, it is estimated that even the human vine was swallowed by the third-order demon crocodile king, and Tang Xiong, the sect leader of the Southern Saint Sect, did not notice it, which was also beyond Ye Ling's expectations.
However, for the sake of prudence, Ye Ling made up his mind that he would try to use the tooth leaf vine winding technique as little as possible in the future, and only use it as a killer weapon in times of crisis.
At this moment, Ye Ling looked at Sun Erhu with a strange expression and asked, "What did you have with the Young Sect Master of the Southern Saint Sect before?
"Hehe, the Southern Holy Sect has always been the most powerful sect around Fengqiao Town, and it has been rampant and domineering for a long time. When such a big event happens, the younger brother is happy in his heart! Hahaha, and more importantly, the younger brother is most disgusted with those high-spirited descendants of the Great Cultivation Immortal Family. Why are they born with food and clothing, backed by his Lao Tzu's power, with immortal cultivation resources that are far beyond the reach of ordinary people, using the best pills, spending a lot of spirit stones, and pursuing the most beautiful female cultivators! The little brother gets angry when he thinks about it!"
Sun Erhu's face showed a look of righteousness and indignation, as if he hated the unfairness in the immortal cultivation world.
Ye Ling nodded, and said lightly: "Well, what you said is right, a person like the Young Sect Master of the Southern Saint Sect is dead, and he is not worthy of pity." ”
Sun Erhu stroked his palms and smiled: "Isn't it! In addition, his subordinates also heard good news!"
Speaking of this, Sun Erhu's face was mysterious, and he said proudly: "This is what my subordinates heard from a fellow Daoist of Yuncang Sect, and recruited Qi cultivators who are not highly cultivated to go through the training! Someone recently discovered a natural karst cave in the Songyang dense forest in the north of the Changxi Plain, and I heard that there are countless strange flowers and plants in it. ”
Ye Ling suddenly became interested, his eyes flashed with brilliance, and he listened attentively.
Immediately after that, Sun Erhu changed his words and said with a wry smile: "It's a pity that the cultivation of his subordinates is too low, and he can't even get close to the Songyang Dense Forest infested by second-order demon beasts, let alone go in to hunt for treasures! Senior Brother Ye can tell this news to Senior Brother Zhuang Liangshou Zhuang of the same sect, he is a cultivator of the fifth level of Qi cultivation, and he can go there! But listen to the meaning of that Yuncang Sect Daoist, but whoever enters the cave to hunt for treasures has to pay a hundred spirit stones to the disciples of Yuncang Sect guarding the entrance of the cave, which is not something that everyone can afford. ”
Ye Ling's heart moved, nodded, didn't ask anything more, and waved his hand to let Sun Erhu retreat.
At night, after everyone had dispersed, Ye Ling seized the time to cut the spiritual grass in the Nangu Medicine Garden.
With the experience of the previous night, this time Ye Ling was even more unscrupulous, and he didn't have to be as cautious as before.
Ye Ling later simply used the Wind Resisting Technique, and wherever he passed, he picked the branches and leaves of the Spirit Grass with his hands! Within an hour, all the kinds of Spirit Grass branches and leaves in the entire Nangu Medicine Garden were collected into Ye Ling's Immortal Mansion Jade Pendant.
Early the next morning, Ye Ling temporarily handed over the Nangu Medicine Garden to Sun Erhu to take charge of, but he drifted away and directly teleported to Dongchengfang City, Fengqiao Town, through the sect teleportation array.
"I've heard a long time ago that Dongguan outside Fengqiao Town is a gathering place for Lingyi, and I haven't had the opportunity to come here to see what is going on. Today, I want to go to the Songyang jungle to practice, so I simply buy a mount and a bird, even if I go out to collect medicine in the future, it will inevitably be used. ”
Ye Ling went straight to the open area outside Dongguan, and sure enough, he saw many monks carrying spirit beast bags to sell, and even some monks released all the low-level spirit beasts in the spirit beast bags in order to attract customers, so that passers-by could take a good look.
"The second-order earth demon pig knows earth archery, and only sells five hundred spirit stones!"
A green-dressed woman in a flowery dress led a brown demon pig and greeted Ye Ling warmly.
Ye Ling looked at the demon pig behind her, it was similar to the first-order demon pig on the Changxi Plains, but the coat color was different, it was obvious that the demon pig cubs were hunted in the Changxi Fields and fed to the second order.
"Don't buy it!" Ye Ling shook his head and walked away.
"Hmph, you look like a poor ghost, and you know you can't afford it. Look at the dress, there is not even a medium-grade magic robe. The moon-white satin robe he wears can be worth three spirit stones at most!"
The green-robed woman's enthusiastic smile disappeared in an instant, replaced by a look of disdain, and she muttered bitterly and harshly.
