Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 184

[Chapter 183 Beast Tide (asking for monthly ticket)]

“It’s really a beast tide!”

Fang Xi looked at this scene, feeling neither sad nor happy.

After all, he had been mentally prepared and could escape in the worst case scenario.

In addition, Bai Ze Fairy City also made preparations.

Boom!

Boom!

On the city wall, red lightning flashed, easily sweeping away the herd of beasts.

Wherever the flames and lightning passed, even a second-level monster would scream and turn into a charred corpse.

“Bing Fire Divine Thunder?”

Fang Xi looked at the red lightning.

In terms of destructive power, the Bing Fire Divine Thunder can be said to be the most lethal among the Five Elements Divine Thunder, far surpassing the Geng Metal and Yi Wood Divine Thunder.

Moreover, the divine thunder from the city wall at this time was not just one
thunder, but thousands of thunders!
Even the golden-crowned thunder roc in the sky did not rashly land and take on these waves of bombardment.

Boom boom!

The sound of Kuiniu drum suddenly rose.

Ouyang Zhen, wearing a purple robe, came to the top of the city wall with a dozen foundation-building cultivators.

Yuan Feihong stepped on the spirit beast and looked into the distance with a solemn expression.

Luo Gong was eager to try.

“The beast tide is coming, and Bai Ze Xian City has implemented martial law, but please rest assured, fellow Taoists, Bai Ze Xian City has the ability to guarantee your safety…”

Ouyang Zhen smiled peacefully, as if he was not nervous at all. This emotion immediately spread, causing the low-level monks to breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, Bai Ze Fairy City has experienced many beast tides in history and has never been destroyed.

“Also, my Bai Ze Immortal City is recruiting all the independent cultivators to contribute to the city’s defense. A cultivator in the early stage of Qi Refining can get one battle merit in seven days, a cultivator in the middle stage can get three battle merits, a cultivator in the late stage can get six battle merits, and a cultivator in the great perfection stage can get ten battle merits… If you are a cultivator in the foundation building stage, you can discuss this with me in detail!”

“After the daily settlement, the war merits can be exchanged for spirit stones, magic tools, skills, elixirs, secret techniques… the list is here!”

Ouyang Zhen threw out a notice, and as his magic power surged, a huge notice that was more than ten feet long and wide appeared in the air.

The lines of text on it contained all kinds of rare resources and requirements for exchanging for military merits, which were enough to drive any cultivator crazy.

“One battle merit can be exchanged for a low-grade spirit stone…”

“There are also magical weapons… and even spiritual weapons…”

“What are those? See… Even the Foundation Establishment Pill can be exchanged. Ten thousand combat merits can be exchanged for one genuine Foundation Establishment Pill!”

“Not to mention, during the battle, the materials of the monsters killed will belong to you.”

Countless independent cultivators went crazy.

As the saying goes, when there is a great reward, there will always be courage to practice.

The independent cultivators are born at the bottom of the world of immortal cultivation. They never shy away from using force to obtain rewards, and even regard killing and fighting as normal.

According to Fang Xi, all the cultivators in this world, regardless of gender, age or status, can be considered mercenaries, and they are all-round warriors who know how to treat, manufacture weapons, detect, set traps and ambushes!
And there is no doubt that those sects are almost like warlords…

Therefore, there was almost no year without war, and killing people everywhere…it was not a big deal.

The monks also take death very lightly.

As long as there is a possibility of a breakthrough, they are not afraid to fight for their lives, and no matter who they fight for, as long as they are paid on time…

“Well… now it looks more like it…”

Fang Xi was complaining in his heart when Ruan Xingling beside him sent a telepathic message: “Brother Fang, look!”

He released his spiritual sense and saw the place on the list that Ruan Dan pointed to:
“Qingxin Pozhang Pill… Suitable for cultivators in the early stage of foundation building who practice wood, fire, and earth skills to break through the bottleneck of the middle stage. It can increase the success rate by about 30%… Worth 25,000 military merits.”

“Sure enough, the elixir for the foundation-building stage is much more expensive than that for the Qi-refining stage…”

Fang Xi complained in his heart, and Ruan Xingling’s voice continued to be heard in his ears: “Brother Fang… this pill is beneficial to both you and me, maybe you can be the first to get it!”

He looked at Ruan Xingling and found that she was also eager to try.

With his cultivation skills and intelligence, as long as he was careful, he wouldn’t have much problem encountering a lower-grade or even mid-grade second-level monster.

Unfortunately, war is dangerous and this is not his style.

“Xingling, I’m sorry… I have no intention of joining the battle.”

Fang Xi sent a message through his spiritual consciousness and saw a hint of surprise on Ruan Xingling’s face.

Immediately, he went to find Luo Gong.

“What? Fellow Daoist Fang, you are not going to climb the city wall, but are going to take on a production mission…Okay…” Luo Gong was a little stunned, but quickly agreed: “It just so happens… Our city is in urgent need of a batch of second-level healing and mana recovery elixirs. You can keep Dan Fang’s military merits on credit first, and then settle the account after the battle…”

“Thank you, Brother Luo.”

Fang Xi clasped his fists in thanks.

He didn’t want to go to the battlefield. After all, even relying on the third-level formation, it was still somewhat dangerous.

Just take care of the logistics, which is my support for the bloody fighting monks.

In fact, the reason for accepting the alchemy task was to avoid unfavorable war situation in Bai Ze Fairy City and to forcibly recruit the originally idle cultivators.

…

In the midst of chaos.

Fang Xi returned to his Taohua Pavilion. As for the Danqi Pavilion?

Naturally, he closed the shop. After all, there was some chaos in the city right now. Compared to a few spirit stones, Fang Xi felt that the safety of his family was more important.

Besides, Ruan Xingling is going to the battlefield now, and he has to accept the alchemy mission in the Immortal City. He also has to practice at the same time, so he has no time to do a side job.

Fang Xi then called Jin Ling and Wei Yixi over and gave them some instructions, asking them not to go out and to focus on their cultivation and recuperation… that was it.

As for Ruan Dan? She is still in seclusion consolidating her cultivation.

According to the convention in the world of immortal cultivation, cultivators who have made such a great breakthrough will basically not be disturbed unless there is a huge change as severe as the collapse of the sky and the earth.

…

In the blink of an eye, several months passed.

It can be said that the monks are very adaptable to the atmosphere of war.

Because of the protection of the third-level formation, no monsters could break through the formation and the city walls to enter the city and kill people.

In the first few months, the situation inside Bai Ze Fairy City was actually quite peaceful, and the prices of various monster materials continued to plummet.

Fang Xi practiced regularly every day and occasionally took action to complete the alchemy tasks of the Immortal City.

Because he is quite familiar with the refining techniques of various monster materials, the success rate of pills is extremely high, and he can also save a lot of materials and save a lot of time.

Luo Gong even hinted that if Fang Xi was willing to sign a long-term contract, he could provide him with the complete materials for a Foundation Establishment Pill and try to refine it.

However, after Fang Xi looked at the contents of the contract, he found that once he became the alchemist of Bai Ze Fairy City, it would be difficult for him to leave, so he could not help but refuse.

It would be too naive to want to bind it like this just because you are trying to refine a foundation-building pill.

In the past, he wanted to join Bai Ze Immortal City, but he lacked the skills and his foundation-building strength was insufficient. Now, times have changed and his mentality is different.

It was because the war was going smoothly and Bai Ze Immortal City did not forcibly recruit independent cultivators, which made Fang Xi feel that his original decision might have been inappropriate.

…

“Come on, Xingling, this cup is for you!”

Ruan Xingling rarely went down the city wall to recuperate, and sat under the peach tree with Fang Xi, who had stolen a half day’s leisure.

Fang Xi smiled and poured Ruan Xingling a glass of green bamboo wine: “Congratulations to Fairy Tao Ling from Wandao Lake. Your name is now famous in Bai Ze Fairy City!”

The ‘Xuan Yin Gong’ that Ruan Xingling practiced was a range-type sonic attack method, which was very useful for clearing out miscellaneous soldiers. She was also good at fighting, and she had made a name for herself on the city walls during this period. Her old nickname ‘Fairy Tao Ling’ spread like wildfire, and it was said that she had many admirers.

Well, if Fang Xi went up to the city wall at this time, he might be envied by others…

“Brother Fang is making fun of me again. How can Xing Ling compare to you…”

Ruan Xingling’s cheeks were slightly red, and she seemed a little resentful.

When she faced Situ Jia that day, she knew that even if she used all her skills, she would not be able to defeat that evil cultivator.

But there is no need to say more about what happened to the other party.

At that time, she knew that Fang Xi was a man of hidden talents, whose fighting ability far surpassed that of his peers. However, for some reason he did not like to be famous and practiced cautiously.

“During this period of time, more than thirty second-level monsters were killed, and only two of our fellow foundation-building practitioners were seriously injured… The rest of the first-level monsters were killed or injured in countless numbers…”

After some banter, the two got down to business.

“In fact, no matter how many monsters die, it is a good thing for the Monster King… Although the resources of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range are rich, if the monsters reproduce too much, they still have to move out… As for whether they die or occupy new territories, it doesn’t matter at all.”

Fang Xi sighed.

“It is said that today, another cultivator obtained a second-level demon pill…”

Ruan Xingling suddenly changed the subject: “Xingling has killed several second-level monsters, but unfortunately she doesn’t have such luck…”

After all, there are only a handful of second-level monsters that can produce monster pills.

“Hehe… Actually I don’t want to make a foundation-building pill…”

Fang Xi knew that the conditions Luo Gong had given him had been leaked.

But in fact, he really didn’t want to master the skill of ‘refining foundation-building pills’ openly.

He still remembers the lesson Chen Ping learned back then.

The alchemy masters in Bai Ze Immortal City seem to have unlimited glory, but in fact they are not very free…

“That’s a pity…”

Ruan Xingling didn’t care and changed the subject: “In the history of Bai Ze Xiancheng, the shortest beast tide lasted eight months, and the longest lasted thirteen years… According to Xingling’s estimation, this beast tide is probably small or medium-sized in history, and it may be completely pacified in one or two years… We can first stockpile a batch of monster materials and sell them when the price goes up in the future…”

“Xing Ling really has a good business sense…”

Fang Xi clapped his hands and laughed.

He had thought of this kind of thing a long time ago.

In fact, there are many cultivators who can think of it, but few have the ability to do so.

After all, to stockpile a large amount of monster materials and keep them in stock for a long period of time, one would need a large amount of idle spirit stones.

Then, there is the risk of being robbed or killed during storage and trading…

It can be said that there are only a few forces that can really do this.

However, Fang Xi can do it!

“This business can indeed earn you some spiritual stones…”

After some hesitation, Fang Xi expressed his support.

After all, this would allow them to mix their own ingredients together and sell them together, which would be perfect…

Fortunately for him, he had a large amount of monster materials but couldn’t find a good opportunity to sell them.

Now we have an obvious source, which can avoid a lot of trouble.
