Chapter 176: Songzhu Island
As soon as Zhao Di pushed open the stone door of the quiet room where Youlan Youruo was, he felt a strong cold and yin wind.
In other words, if you are a monk in the Qi refining period, you are afraid that you will suddenly be stiffened by this invisible wind of the wind, and your soul will be detached, and you will be killed.
At this time, the second daughter was sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed facing each other, both of them were with their hands stretched out, their palms facing each other, and a layer of gray-black faint gas lingered around the second girl's body, which looked very weird.
The skin of the jade arm exposed by the second daughter is very delicate and smooth at first glance, but it is translucent, appearing and disappearing, and at a glance it is not an ordinary human body. The beautiful faces of the two daughters showed a look of prudence and difficulty, and from time to time a few drops of sweat slipped down their foreheads, and then turned into a few yin winds and dissipated.
When Zhao Di saw this scene, he immediately exerted his magical power of mixed yuan, and kept walking around the second daughter, waving his palms from time to time, and rolling the rich yin qi of the secret room towards the location of the second daughter with purple qi. Slowly, a thick layer of purple qi formed a circle the size of a zhang, like a silkworm cocoon, enveloping the rich gray-black yin qi and the second daughter.
Zhao Di's purpose in doing this was nothing more than to make the yin qi around the second girl gather but not disperse, and the density would be higher, which would also help him impact the bottleneck, just like when he hit the bottleneck, he often needed to use high-level spirit stones and spirit gathering arrays to provide a higher density of spiritual energy.
Zhao Di saw that the second daughter was slowly absorbing the gray and black yin qi around her, and his heart was slightly relieved.
A night later, with the help of Zhao Di, the second daughter absorbed a large amount of Yin Qi into the body, and guided the operation, and finally both broke through and reached the cultivation in the later stage of foundation building.
After a few more months, after the second daughter had consolidated her cultivation, Zhao Di left this cave mansion and came to a teleportation array in Abbot Xiandaofang City.
...... Shochiku Island is barely one of the large islands attached to Hojo Senjima, and its size is less than one-fifth of that of Xixing Island.
There are more than 10 peaks on the island, composed of the Songzhu Mountains, which are named after the trees on the peaks that are more than 100 years old, and the large green bamboo forests at the bottom of the mountains.
This Songzhu Mountain Range is also a high-grade spiritual vein, when the Thousand Machine Gate was at its peak, there were dozens of large islands under the control of the door, and only the most insignificant one was like Songzhu Island. However, after the decline of the Thousand Machine Gate, the sect was relocated to this island. Because this island has very few resources and is located in a remote location, for more than a thousand years, although Qianjimen has declined, it has not aroused the covetousness of other sects, and Qianjimen has been able to live here and survive.
Contrary to the situation in the island's Qianjimen and Boxi Mountain, the mortals on this Songzhu Island are becoming more and more prosperous. The island is much smaller than West Star Island, but there are three times as many mortals as West Star Island. The mortals on this island are very satisfied and love this Thousand Machine Gate, which not only rarely adds taxes to mortals, but also occasionally sends some low-level disciples to help mortals solve some difficulties that are easy for immortal cultivators. At the same time, if the mortals on the island give birth to children with spiritual roots, they are also willing to send them to the Thousand Machine Gate for cultivation, and a large number of low-level disciples have been added to the Thousand Machine Gate. If it weren't for these large number of mortals, the number of low-level disciples of the Thousand Machine Sect would also be greatly reduced.
Of course, in addition to the monks born on the island, Qianjimen also recruited talents everywhere, after all, for the immortal cultivation forces, the monks themselves are the most important. Because the reputation of the sect is getting smaller and smaller, those monks with better spiritual root qualifications are reluctant to join the Thousand Machine Gate, but are more inclined to join the Great Sect Gate, so that they may get more resources. Only monks with average qualifications can voluntarily join this sect, so the requirements for beginner disciples in the Thousand Machine Sect are very relaxed.
On the rugged mountain road leading to Songzhu Peak, the main peak of the Songzhu Mountains, a young man in purple, who was twenty-three or fourteen years old, and a sixteen or seventeen-year-old, but very tall boy, were walking together.
This purple-clothed young man is none other than Zhao Di, and now he has used the Hidden Spirit Technique to hide his cultivation, pretending to be a low-level monk at the seventh level of the Qi refining period, and is about to blend in with the low-level disciples of the Thousand Machine Gate.
The young man beside him was a "senior disciple" of the Qianji Gate, and he was only at the eighth level of the Qi Refining Period, and he had been in the Qianji Gate for many years, and he was relatively familiar with everything in the door, so Zhao Di took the opportunity to knock on the side and listen to find out a lot of information.
This young man did not happen to meet him, but he had been lurking beside the necessary path at the bottom of the mountain for several days before he saw such a young man who went up the mountain alone. Zhao Di excused himself to worship under the Qianji Gate, and followed the young man to Songzhu Peak.
Originally, he planned to quietly stun the young man, and then use the soul search of the two daughters of Youlan Youruo to grasp some information about the Thousand Machine Gate, so as to arrange the next move. But this young man didn't seem to have any scheming, and after a little inquiry, he told what he knew and told him, which made Zhao Di no longer need to use the soul searching technique.
After all, this kind of spell is very domineering, even if there is the help of Youlan Youruo's two daughters, I am afraid that it will more or less destroy the original memory of the teenager, and if you are not careful, you will become mentally retarded or an idiot, which will cause unnecessary trouble.
From this young man, he learned that there were not only two elders in the Qianji Gate, but they were also in retreat, and they rarely appeared, and he had never seen the two of them once in the door for more than ten years. As for the monks in the foundation building period, there are more than 30 monks, but most of them are only in the early stage of foundation building, and only three in the later stage of foundation building.
As for the disciples in the Qi Refining Period, there are quite a few, there are nearly a thousand people, but half of them are below the eighth layer of the Qi Refining Period, and there are only a few hundred and ten disciples who can cultivate to the eleventh layer of the Qi Refining Period and have the hope of impacting the foundation.
It seems that the Thousand Machine Gate is indeed in decline, judging from the number and quality of low-level monks, I am afraid that it will be even worse in the future, and there is even no guarantee that there will be continuous emergence of monks in the sect.
At that time, even if it has a long reputation, it will be impossible to continue to hang in the Hundred Sects Alliance, and sooner or later it will be completely reduced to a small sect or be swallowed up by other sects and lose its inheritance.
"Brother Jane, you said that you are good at refining weapons, this is not bragging, right?" When the young man said that he liked refining weapons, especially puppets, so he came to worship the Thousand Machines Gate, the young man asked with a little disbehes. It's no wonder he has suspicions, there are many monks in Qianjimen who are good at refining weapons, but they are all a lot older, how can anyone be as young as the young man in front of him. After all, refining weapons is very important about the accumulation of experience, and it is extremely difficult for young people to be good at this.
"This, hehe, my cultivation is too low, don't talk about my strengths, I'm afraid that the head of the Thousand Machine Gate won't accept me as a beginner! In fact, I've only purified the ore raw materials a few times and accumulated a little experience!" the young man said a little interestingly.
"Purifying raw materials, this is not easy, it takes a lot of divine sense, I can't do it anyway!Brother Jane, you are really good, I will ask you for advice in the future, you can teach me!" the young man said approvingly.
The young man smiled and said, "Of course, Brother Chi, do you think I will be accepted by the master?"
"Of course I will accept it! This sect is in urgent need of manpower, not to mention a talent like Brother Jian who can refine weapons! Don't worry, I'll take you to see the head of the sect in this matter, it's definitely no problem!" the young man patted his chest and promised.
"Hehe, then thank you Brother Chi!" the young man said with a smile: "I don't know how long it will take to teach the puppet refining method after joining the sect, I always dream of having my own puppet as soon as possible!"
The young man was stunned for a moment and said, "There is nothing about the refining method of the puppet, and there is a detailed introduction in the library in the door. However, it is very difficult for our disciples in the Qi refining period to use puppets! To use puppets, we must first place a wisp of distraction in the puppet, and this kind of distraction technique can only be used by the predecessors of the foundation building stage. Unless you can ask a senior in the foundation building period to perform distraction spells for you, and drip your essence blood into the puppet for sacrifice, you can only indulge the puppet. However, it is said that the flexible surname of the puppet in this way is worse. ”
"I see! I don't know any of my predecessors in the foundation building period, what should I do?" the young man frowned.
"Hehe, don't worry! You don't know, I do!" The young man smiled proudly: "There are a few uncles and uncles in the door who love me the most, and it is absolutely no problem for me to beg for you!
"That's great!
The two talked and laughed all the way, and Zhao Di kept looking for topics, getting closer to the things he was most concerned about step by step.
"You say, if each of us has a puppet with the strength of the foundation building period, wouldn't we have one more powerful assistant!
"A puppet with the strength of the foundation building period?" The young man first showed a very surprised expression when he heard this, and then laughed: "Brother Jian really dares to say it, he is not afraid of flashing his tongue! You must know that there are not many puppets in our sect in the foundation building period, they are all the treasures of the two masters, how can a disciple of the Qi refining period like us have it! Even those uncles and uncles only have two or three people who have been rewarded by the ancestors, and they only have such a puppet in the foundation building period!"
"There are so few puppets in the foundation building period, why, is it too expensive to refine raw materials or is the method too difficult?" the young man asked suspiciously.
The boy touched his head and said in an uncertain tone, "There are two reasons! However, it seems that only the two elders know the refining method of the puppet in the foundation building period, and those uncles and uncles don't understand it!"
"Only the elders know the method!" the young man's face did not change when he heard this, but a wave stirred up in his heart.
"Ha, so that's the case! I've seen too little, and I'm thinking about it! I'm still wondering, as long as we refine a large number of foundation building stage puppets in the Thousand Machine Gate, are we still afraid that they won't be strong!" the young man laughed at himself.
"What should I do, master, only the elders of the Yudan stage know the refining method, then we must attack the Jiedan monks!" Youlan said worriedly.
"Find a way to lure out the elders in the early stage of the Jiedan, lay the formation trap in advance, and use the master's magical means, and then our sisters cooperate from the side, we still have a certain degree of certainty that we will be captured! When the time comes, the elder will be searched for souls, and the master will be able to harvest the refining method!" Youruo proposed a plan that sounded like it was feasible.
While continuing to laugh and talk with the young man, Zhao Di responded to the second daughter with his divine sense: "This matter is only from the mouth of a disciple in the Qi refining period, and it may not be accurate. If you come here, you will be safe, let's find out a little more, maybe some monks in the late stage of foundation building in Qianjimen have also been taught the refining method. If there is no other way, then we will only have to meet for a while with the elders of the early stage of the Yudan! I'm just worried that even if we capture the other party alive, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find a refining method!"
"What does the master mean is that in order to prevent the secret outflow of the Zhen Sect, the people of the Thousand Machine Gate have done tricks and tricks in their divine sense, even if a monk in the Yudan Stage falls into the hands of the enemy, the other party will not be able to obtain the secret of the Thousand Machine Gate through the soul searching technique?" Youlan was slightly startled, the problem that Zhao Di was worried about was also very likely! Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain that for more than a thousand years, a weak sect had always been able to protect the refining technique of a high-level puppet.
"Yes, this is a possibility! As for whether there are other changes, I don't know! Anyway, this matter will never be too easy to do, we must be prepared for a long time!" replied Zhao Di.
The two daughters were speechless and fell into deep thought.
Not long after, under the leadership of the young man, Zhao Di smoothly met the head of Qianjimen, an old man in the middle of foundation building with his hair falling out and his eyes and nose. It's just that this person's smile only makes people feel that he is cunning and obscene, and he doesn't have the heroic spirit of a faction leader at all!
As soon as the young man saw the old man, he kindly stepped forward and grabbed his sleeve and shook it: "Uncle Qi, I'm bringing someone to join our Thousand Machine Gate again! This Brother Jian is a genius at refining! How about it, send me two more low-level spirit stones next month!"
The old man restrained his smile and put on a fierce expression, took out his right hand that was grabbed by the young man, knocked lightly on his skull, and reprimanded: "Last month, you kid broke a good jade bottle, which is worth ten low-level spirit stones! This master hasn't settled accounts with you yet, and he still wants to send more spirit stones! The whole thing is that you go out and fool around, go back to practice!"
The young man pursed his mouth and left helplessly, and before leaving, he squeezed his eyebrows at Zhao Di and glanced at the old man.
Zhao Di was slightly surprised in his heart, this is too far from the situation of the Taixu Gate! In the Taixu Gate, the disciples of the Qi Refining Period were all frightened and cautious in front of the uncle of the Foundation Building Period, how could they dare to be so presumptuous! And this old man in charge did not have the slightest shelf, and it was really strange to have a fight with a disciple of the eighth layer of the Qi Refining Period.
After the young man left, the old man coughed lightly, put on a serious face, and said to Zhao Di: "Do you want to join the Thousand Machine Gate......?
