Chapter 164: Phantom Grass
Yun Xiaomei is a woman in her early twenties, and her appearance is somewhat similar to that of Yun Da Niang. The two have the same beauty. She has a graceful figure and a handsome appearance, which is very attractive to men. Just standing there quietly, she has attracted the attention of the three Yuan Datong brothers.
Yun Da Niang's cultivation is slightly higher, at the eighth level of Kaimai Realm, while Yun Xiaomei is at the seventh level of Kaimai Realm. The difference between the two is more than forty years, but the difference in cultivation is only one level. The gap between their aptitudes can be seen. It is estimated that Yun Da Niang has no hope for herself. This time she went into the mountains for the future of her daughter.
Among the eleven people, two are at the ninth level of Kaimai Realm, six are at the eighth level of Kaimai Realm, and two are at the seventh level of Kaimai Realm. The overall strength is still very high. Seven of them are in their thirties or forties, in their prime. Except for Yun Da Niang who is a little older, only Lu Dingshan and Yun Xiaomei are in their twenties. As for Qingyang, he is completely regarded as a non-staff member by everyone.
Aunt Yun and her daughter had never seen Qingyang before, but they had heard Lu Dingshan say that he would add another person, so they recognized him at first sight. The mother and daughter did not show any dissatisfaction with Qingyang's joining, but just nodded slightly at him, which was considered an acquaintance.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the middle-aged man Duan Rushong said: "The Immortal Knocking Conference is coming. We, the casual cultivators, have no qualifications, no connections, and can't get the Immortal Knocking Order. We can only pin our hopes on the Immortal Gate mission. But the mission items are not so easy to get. Every time at this time, there are countless cultivators entering the mountain. We not only have to find the mission items, but also guard against the attacks of monsters everywhere, and we have to compete with other casual cultivators. So I hope that this time when we go into the mountain, everyone can give up all selfish thoughts and work together to deal with difficulties."
This is what it should be. The depths of Yuling Mountain are full of dangers and monsters. Even Qi training cultivators dare not go deep alone, let alone casual cultivators like them who are in the Kaimai realm? If the whole team is harmed because of one person's selfishness, even if that person can survive, he or she may not be able to return to Yuling Mountain safely.
Zheng Guangming, the traveling doctor, nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist Duan is right!"
Lu Dingshan also said, "We all go into the mountain together, and we are all on the same boat. We should naturally help each other, and no one will do such things that harm others and benefit ourselves."
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Duan, we are all casual cultivators in Yuling City, and we are naturally very clear about this. It's just that some people in the team have low cultivation. I hope they won't drag everyone down at that time." Shen Ertong mentioned Qingyang again intentionally or unintentionally.
Before Qingyang could react, He Lanfeng next to him frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, what Fellow Daoist Duan just said, have you forgotten it?"
Seeing He Lanfeng speak for Qingyang, Shen Ertong didn't dare to say anything more, but shrank his neck, glanced at Qingyang again, and then hid behind the others and stopped talking.
No one interrupted, and Duan Rushong continued, "According to convention, the items you get are yours. If everyone finds them at the same time, or if everyone gets them together, regardless of their value, they will be distributed according to the ratio agreed upon in advance."
Duan Rushong didn't need to introduce this matter, and everyone present knew it, because the scattered cultivators in Yuling City often go deep into Yuling Mountain, and many conventions have been formed over a long period of time. Although you are in a team, the items you find personally, or if you get them alone, are yours, and others will not ask you to take them out for distribution.
And the things that everyone finds together, or if everyone gets them together, must be distributed according to the ratio. When distributing, if someone in the team needs it, this person must buy it at a similar price in Yuling City. If no one needs it, they will return to Yuling City to sell it, and then everyone will distribute it according to the ratio agreed upon before.
Of course, this is just a convention. Generally, everyone will follow this convention for things that are not of high value, because the gains are not great, there is no need to risk their lives, and if they are not careful, they will be suppressed by the immortal gate as scum and evil cultivators.
However, if the things you get are of high value, it is hard to say. Especially for things like mission items, they can be compared with the Knock on the Immortal Order at a critical moment. During the Knock on the Immortal Conference, the mission items of the seven major immortal gates can even be sold for hundreds of spirit stones, but there is still no market for them.
This is not only hundreds of spirit stones, but also an opportunity to join the immortal gate. Maybe someone in the team has evil intentions and wants to take the things for himself, so killing people to grab treasures happens. Because of this, when they form a team, they all have similar cultivation. Because there are many people and they are restrained by each other, everyone generally dares not have evil intentions.
In their current team, the three brothers Yuan Datong are in one group, Zheng Guangming and Dongfang Liang are in one group, Yun Da Niang and her daughter are in one group, Lu Dingshan Qingyang is in one group, and the remaining Duan Rusong and He Lanfeng have no deep friendship, so they are considered two groups. In this way, there are a total of six groups of people, and their strengths are similar to each other. Even if there are slightly stronger ones, they are only slightly stronger. Under mutual restraint, it is a relatively stable team.
Duan Rushong continued, "We have two main goals in going into the mountains this time. The first is the Fantasy Grass in Yehu Ridge. Some time ago, when I was visiting the market, I accidentally found a notebook of a predecessor, and found a secret message in the notebook of that predecessor. Two hundred years ago, he found a newly grown Fantasy Grass in Yehu Ridge, but because it was too young and useless at the time, he did not pick it, but just wrote it down..."
The difference between the ninth and eighth levels of Kaimai Realm is not that big. It is a bit too much for them to share more. Duan Rushong and He Lanfeng can each get three shares, on the one hand, because they have high cultivation and are the captains, and the more important reason is that they each brought news about the mission items.
"Fellow Daoist Duan, are you talking about the mission item Huanling Grass issued by Qianji Hall thirty years ago?" Zheng Guangming asked before Duan Rushong finished speaking.
Duan Rushong nodded and said, "That's right. Thirty years ago, the mission item issued by Qianji Hall was the 200-year-old Fantasy Spirit Grass, but the Fantasy Spirit Grass was too rare, so Qianji Hall returned empty-handed that year. The Fantasy Spirit Grass recorded in the notes is now old enough. If we can get it, not to mention joining the immortal sect, at least everyone can get a dozen spirit stones."
Everyone doesn't know much about the Fantasy Spirit Grass. They only know that the Fantasy Spirit Pill made from this spiritual grass can make the appearance and cultivation of the cultivator completely transform into another person, making it difficult for other cultivators to distinguish the real from the fake, so the Fantasy Spirit Pill is the best choice for cultivators to disguise and change their appearance.
