Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 83

[Chapter 82 Red Blood Spirit Rice (Congratulations to Alliance Leader 67832!)]

“As a fellow Taoist, can’t you invite another master in the late stage of Qi Refining to help you?”

Fang Xi asked with some confusion.

To deal with an eighth-level Qi Refining cultivator, it is of course safer to surround him.

“Well… I have some unspeakable secrets, but please rest assured, I am confident that I can kill the enemy.”

A trace of determination appeared on Ruan Xingling’s face.

Fang Xi wanted to ask more, but was interrupted by Wei Yixin: “Fairy Ruan has something to hide, and you are still forcing her. This doesn’t seem like the behavior of a gentleman!”

“What the hell…”

Fang Xi was speechless. He wanted to find out Ruan Xingling’s hidden card. Wasn’t it for everyone’s sake?

This Wei Yixin is crazy.

He already has a Taoist partner, so does he still need to be attentive to Ruan Xingling? Or is he just a pure bootlicker?

“No, it’s possible. Is this a gentleman? But… gentlemen don’t live long…”

He sneered in his heart, then apologized: “I was negligent… Fairy, please don’t blame me!”

“That’s all!”

Ruan Xingling’s expression became much better: “If you all have no problem, then let’s swear an oath to each other!”

“I…done it!”

After confirming that the Inner Demon Oath only required confidentiality and that they must not harm each other during the operation, Fang Xi was the first to swear.

“snort!”

Wei Yixin seemed very disdainful, and made the same oath as his Taoist partner Hua Chanjuan, and last was the old Taoist Xiumu.

“Okay…you can go back and prepare. As for the time of action, why not choose a month later?”

Ruan Xingling said.

“After a month? Fairy, you are wise.” The old Taoist priest smiled while stroking his beard.

“Will it be the annual auction of Baochuanfang City in a month? Could it be that… the fairy has already received the information, and Lu Jingqing will come?” Fang Xi seemed to have thought of something.

“Yes, fellow Daoist, you have a quick mind.” Ruan Xingling nodded with satisfaction.

Seeing Wei Yixin’s ugly expression, Fang Xi shook his head and explained, “I am just planning to buy a fine magic weapon for self-defense, so I am a little concerned about the auction time.”

“I do have information that the thief Lu will come to this auction. We can then ambush and kill him directly without having to attack the protective formation of Peach Blossom Island!”

Ruan Xingling explained a few words.

After all, for a group of Qi-refining monks to attack a mountain protection formation, even if it is of the first order, is a very thankless task, and they may be killed in return, unless they have a first-order forbidden-breaking talisman!

But a ban-breaking talisman may not be able to break a large formation!
At most, it can form a channel, temporarily disrupting the power of the formation, allowing attackers to kill their way into the formation, and then it’s either you or me!

The reason why the “Sky Blue Water Formation” in Qingzhu Mountain Market was easily broken by the second-level forbidden-breaking talisman last time was entirely because the talisman exploded inside the formation!
Most of the power of the formation is outward, and the difficulty of attacking from the inside and breaking from the outside is completely different.

If Ruan Xingling had a way to have someone detonate a first-level forbidden-breaking talisman inside the Lu family formation, it would be very likely that the mountain protection formation would be destroyed.

But now it seems that with better options available, this woman does not want to destroy the formation she has worked so hard to build.

“That’s great!” Upon hearing that they didn’t have to attack Peach Blossom Island, Wei Yixin and his wife couldn’t help but look delighted.

After finishing their discussion, the group stood up and said goodbye.

Fang Xi deliberately fell behind by a few steps, and then he saw the old Taoist Xiu Mu coming out to see him off.

Before leaving, the old man whispered a few words: “It’s not that Fairy Ruan can’t win over the late-stage cultivators, but she is afraid of inviting a wolf into the house again… Even a master who has reached the great perfection of Qi training is willing to take action, but he just wants Fairy Ruan to agree to the Taoist couple agreement first. However, Fairy Ruan is a person who cares about the great way and doesn’t want to lose her vital yin, so we have not been able to reach an agreement…”

“So that’s how it is.” Fang Xi showed a look of sudden realization, but he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry in his heart: ‘It seems that… I still took advantage of my low cultivation level?’

…

at night.

Inside the cave number 37 Bing.

A fist-sized luminous pearl was inlaid on the wall, illuminating the room as bright as day.

Fang Xi took out a book that he had bought casually in a bookstore, turned to the section on Peach Blossom Island in Wandao Lake, and read it carefully.

“Peach Blossom Island… This island is located in the southeast island chain of Wandao Lake. Nearby are Baiyu Island, Heisha Island, and Jinyan Island!”

“This island is over thirty miles long from north to south and over twenty miles wide from east to west… There are spiritual places such as Twin Peaks, Mirror Moon Lake, and Emerald Cliff. Among them, only Mirror Moon Lake is a first-level spiritual vein, and the rest are inferior…”

“On the island, there is a large mortal town with dozens of villages and a population of over ten thousand… Tsk tsk, this is totally a small county.”

Monks and mortals live together in Wandao Lake, all on islands.

Moreover, most of these mortals are descendants of cultivators and are close to spiritual nourishment. The probability of having spiritual roots among their descendants is very high, and they are also an important source of supplements to the cultivator group.

“No wonder that old Taoist wants to be the second island owner. This is the local emperor…”

“Ruan Xingling has the strength and status… plus Xiumu can smooth the relationship, as long as she kills Lu Jingqing, she will be able to secure the position of island master, and I can also enjoy a hundred years of peace… This can be done!”

In the world of cultivating immortals, no matter how righteous one is, in the end it all comes down to strength.

As for why Ruan Xingling was so confident that he could get rid of his enemy?

With his wealth as a weapon refiner, he probably bought fine magic weapons, powerful talismans, or even disposable treasures, such as the ‘Yin Lei Zi’!

“Of course, Ruan Xingling probably doesn’t have the wealth and channels to buy Yin Lei Zi… but he should have some for other disposable items. This business is done!”

“It’s a pity that this woman is only a first-class mid-grade weapon refiner. Otherwise, after we have experienced battles, established a friendship, and confirmed her character, we can give her the snake dragon materials to refine…”

“As an unorthodox physical cultivator, I still want to follow the custom of the immortal cultivation world and put on a full set of spiritual armor before fighting with others…”

…

January passed quickly.

As the auction approached, more and more people came to Baochuan Market.

Major businesses also took the opportunity to launch promotional activities, and many products were increased in price – yes, they were increased in price!
After all, high-quality elixirs, magic tools… all need to be snatched up.

Big shops have good reputations, so there’s no need to worry about sales!

There are more stalls, and they are competing with each other, so there is a trend of lowering prices.

Fang Xi also took advantage of this rare opportunity to sell all the materials of lower-grade monsters such as the red-eyed crow.

Although there are quite a lot of monster materials, they are not noticeable at all when mixed with the huge transaction volume in the current market.

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

After dealing with all the low-grade monster materials, Fang Xi started shopping in a good mood.

In his storage bag, there are only the skin, bones and blood of the snake dragon, as well as the wolf skin and wolf hair of the old one-eyed man, the wings and claws of first-grade top-quality birds and other most precious things.

Fang Xi kept these things, intending to use them himself or wait for the right opportunity to sell them.

At the same time, after purchasing other inheritances several times, there were still more than 400 low-grade spirit stones left.

“Sure enough, being a profiteer between two worlds is profitable!”

After calming down, Fang Xi wandered among the people setting up stalls. He didn’t have to look for any treasures, he just looked around casually.

“The top-grade magic sword is on sale for a low price, only one hundred spirit stones!”

“A first-class top-grade ‘Flying Talisman’! It allows cultivators to experience the physical flying technique of foundation building in advance… I will pay for it with twenty spirit stones!”

“Various precious minerals, just waiting for fate!”

“Monster meat is cheap, 15 kilograms for one spirit stone!”

“Buy ten copies of various martial arts secrets and you’ll get a family treasure map for free!”

…

Fang Xi came to the martial arts stall and looked at the treasure maps, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

He had never participated in the popular activities of exploring the secrets and the remains of the caves of the predecessors in the world of immortal cultivation, because he knew that it was a trap!
Most of the treasure maps were fake, and the remaining small part might be a trap set by the cultivators!
There was only a one in ten thousand or even one in a hundred thousand chance of pointing to a treasure like the secret realm of Ziyou Mountain.

But after getting a great opportunity, if one does not have sufficient strength, the end will be the same as that of the Situ family and the Red Leaf Valley… very miserable!

Fang Xi walked around for a long time but didn’t find any opportunities to find bargains, so he couldn’t help but smile.

“I don’t have the physique to be a protagonist after all…”

After sighing inwardly, he stopped by a stall selling spiritual rice.

The stall owner was an old farmer wearing a bamboo hat. He was at the initial stage of Qi Refining. He greeted everyone with a smile and was cautious and humble, which made Fang Xi inexplicably think of Lao Maitou.

He squatted down, rummaged through the magical rice on the stall, and grabbed a handful of black magical rice.

“Fellow Daoist, this Renshui Spiritual Rice is rich in water essence. Look at my spiritual rice, each grain is plump and the price is cheap. If you buy more, you can get a discount.”

Seeing that Fang Xi seemed to be interested in buying, the old farmer immediately introduced him.

“Well, it’s really good!”

Fang Xi read the inheritance of Lingzhifu. That ‘Jia Feicai’ had devoted his entire life to farming and did have some extraordinary insights into spiritual rice.

In addition, Fang Xi himself is also a spiritual farmer, so he can resonate with what he reads, and his progress is much faster than reading about formations or talisman making.

At this moment, when he rubbed it with his fingertips, he knew that the spiritual energy contained in this spiritual rice was even more abundant than that sold in the store. It could be considered a fine product.

However, he quickly put down the Renshui spiritual rice and grabbed a handful of red spiritual rice next to it.

This magical rice is bright red all over, with a slight fishy smell, which makes people feel a little unpleasant.

“Is this the ‘Red Blood Spirit Rice’? It’s of good quality and can be used as seeds for next year.”

Fang Xi sighed.

“Fellow Daoist, you know what’s good!” The old farmer gave a thumbs up. “This red blood rice is my masterpiece… If you take it for a long time, it will be very beneficial to your physical strength. Unfortunately, it doesn’t taste good, so only physical cultivators will occasionally buy some.”

This red blood rice tastes rough and its fishy smell is difficult to remove, so it is sold at a very low price.

But Fang Xi didn’t care… After all, most of his farming was for making wine or feeding Tai Sui.

Since you are going to be a spiritual plant husband and farm, you naturally have to produce and sell your own products and achieve a cycle.

One mu of spiritual field requires seven or eight kilograms of spiritual seeds. Fang Xi calculated it as ten kilograms, leaving a margin for himself, and immediately said with a smile: “Give me a hundred kilograms of ‘Red Blood Spiritual Valley’…”

“Great!” The business is opening and the old farmer’s face is full of joy.
