Chapter 119 News
Yunxia Island,
Ling Ziwei and Xie Linghua were sitting in the courtyard, their eyes looking towards the pavilion where Wei Zhong was retreating from time to time.
Xie Linghua murmured:
"The master went into seclusion again not long after he came back. He is really diligent in his practice. I can't wait to catch up."
When Xie Linghua said this, there was still a trace of loneliness in her eyes.
Ling Ziwei touched his wrist and knew what he was thinking.
Xie Linghua has been building the foundation for more than 40 years and has not yet reached the middle stage of foundation building.
Of course this was due to his limited qualifications, but with the blessing of such abundant training resources provided by Wei Zhong, it also seemed a bit inappropriate.
The early stage of foundation building is so difficult, so what about the middle and late stages of foundation building?
I'm afraid that I won't have the opportunity to reach the threshold of Danjie in this lifetime.
"Sister Ling'er, please relax. My husband doesn't know people by looking at their cultivation. Being able to bring sister Ling'er from Mangyuan Mansion to the current Luohe Mansion is enough to show my husband's deep affection."
Ling Ziwei calls Wei Zhong husband, and it is obvious that the relationship between the two is no longer an ordinary Taoist friend.
After Wei Zhong returned from Mangyuan Mansion, he expressed his feelings to Ling Ziwei, and then went to the Ling family to confirm their identity under the witness of his brother.
There was no grand banquet to make any noise. Wei Zhong and the Ling family planned to do small things, so they just invited a few friends and had a banquet.
Immediately, Wei Zhong plunged into long-term seclusion to rebuild his spiritual roots.
"Alas," Xie Linghua sighed, "Of course I know what the master wants, but Linger's qualifications are low and her cultivation is slow. I'm afraid she won't be able to accompany the master for long."
"Silly girl," Ling Ziwei pulled Xie Linghua into her arms.
At the same time, he was also thinking about what he said.
Now Xie Linghua has a life span of more than a hundred years, although compared with the life span of ordinary people, it seems to be extremely long.
But for practitioners, especially for alchemy monks like Ling Ziwei and Wei Zhong, it is only a small part of their life span.
If you want Xie Linghua to stay with Wei Zhong for a long time, you must come up with ways to improve his cultivation.
The fake elixir method can only provide false cultivation and has no effect on longevity, so it is not included in this list.
"I wonder if my husband's spiritual method is of any use?"
Ling Ziwei looked at the secret room where Wei Zhong was in seclusion, stunned.
"Hey."
The door in front of him was pushed open, and a man in green robe walked out, it was Wei Zhong who had successfully retreated.
"Husband!"
"master!"
When the two girls saw Wei Zhong coming out of seclusion, they immediately surrounded him.
Wei Zhong spread out his arms, picked them up one by one, and then sat on the wicker chair in the courtyard.
"Why did the master come out of seclusion in a hurry after only one year?" Xie Linghua asked curiously.
Wei Zhong chuckled: "Don't I miss you?"
Then he extended his mouth to his neck, teasing him into laughing.
Turning around, he did the same to Ling Ziwei.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I just used this period of time to practice a small secret technique. Otherwise, how would this second-level spiritual land be enough for me to practice pill formation?"
"Are you planning to rent a third-level spiritual land next?" Ling Ziwei whispered in Wei Zhong's ear.
Wei Zhong nodded.
‘Although I own the Cave Heaven, there is also a third-level top spiritual land available within it. But after all, it cannot be exposed to outsiders, so it is necessary to find a way to hide it from others.
Otherwise, I won’t be able to explain my future cultivation advancement to outsiders. ’
He held Ling Ziwei's delicate hand with his right hand: "Have you chosen a habitat for me these days?"
The latter nodded with a reddish complexion:
"I have indeed seen some good third-level spiritual lands with sister Ling'er these days, but my husband still needs to make a specific choice."
Wei Zhong put the two girls down: "In that case, let's go and have a look together."
Then Wei Zhong called Jiucai, who spread his wings and led everyone up.
Thanks to the large amount of wind monster inner elixir that Wei Zhong hunted, Jiucai's cultivation during this period can be said to have advanced by leaps and bounds. He has already vaguely touched the threshold of the late second level, and it won't take long to officially enter it.
Sitting on its broad back, a layer of spiritual light condensed to protect the three of them from the strong wind.
While chatting with the two women, Wei Zhong looked inwards at himself.
After a year of seclusion, although some unexpected accidents occurred that Wei Zhong did not expect, such as the fusion of the recreated water spirit root with the water spirit root that originally existed in the body.
But fortunately, the level of the spiritual root has finally been improved.
At present, Wei Zhong's Water Spiritual Root is already at the high-grade level, and it is the highest grade among them. It is only one step away from the Earth-grade Spiritual Root.
After a few more retreats like this, it is estimated that the ground level spiritual root will be formed.
Once the spiritual root is completed, the speed of cultivation will double from then on, and the bottleneck will be reduced.
There will no longer be a need to rely on level-breaking elixirs to break through small realms.
The price paid for this was nothing more than a Dust Falling Pill and the full power of his own natal magic weapon Yuan Shui Bead.
During this trip, Wei Zhong, in addition to looking for the lease of a first- and third-level spiritual land, also wanted to find enough water-based spiritual objects to help Yuan Shuizhu restore its level.
Currently, without the protection of Yuan Shui Bead, the defense power of [Black Water Spirit Clothes] has dropped a lot, making Wei Zhong feel a little insecure.
······
The third-level spiritual land is already the highest-level spiritual land for cultivation in Luohe Mansion. Naturally, it is necessary to find the local chamber of commerce.
Riding on the big blue-feathered bird, Wei Zhong and the two women landed outside Yuelan City and flew to Yunji Tower.
Stepping onto the second floor, you saw Xu Xuan waiting here.
As soon as he saw Wei Zhong, he came up to say hello enthusiastically:
"I heard that Fellow Daoist Wei traveled far away, but I didn't expect to see him again so soon."
"Haha, it's only about two years ago..."
After chatting with him about some trivial matters, he returned to the topic.
"Fellow Daoist Wei, it's really time to rent a third-level spiritual land," Xu Xuan said as he raised his head and glanced at the two women beside Wei Zhong.
Ling Ziwei replied: "Fellow Taoist Xu Xuan, please take out some of the spiritual places I saw a few days ago and take a look!"
Xu Xuan nodded, ordered the maid beside him to take out a jade slip, took it and handed it to Wei Zhong.
Wei Zhong's consciousness checked for a moment and he couldn't help but frown.
Then he put the jade slip on the table and considered it carefully.
There are not many spiritual places recorded in the jade slips, only eight places, all of which were carefully selected by Ling Ziwei.
Among them, there are two third-level low-grade spiritual lands. Although the location is good, the level is too low and Wei Zhong does not consider it.
There are four middle-grade spiritual lands, and the geographical location is relatively average.
There are also two third-level high-grade spiritual lands, but the surrounding environment is even worse. One of them is actually located in the deep mountains and old forests far away from Luohe River.
Wei Zhong practiced the water method and tempered the Yuan Shui Pearl, which was inseparable from the great rivers, so he abandoned them both.
"Fellow Daoist Wei is dissatisfied with these spiritual lands?" Xu Xuan saw Wei Zhong's thoughts.
Wei Zhong nodded in response. On the other hand, he was concerned about Ling Ziwei's thoughts, so he sent a message:
"The spiritual lands I have chosen are not bad, but they are of a lower grade. You and I will eventually enter the late stage of pill formation, and you still have to choose a high-grade spiritual land."
Ling Ziwei also knew the reason, but Luohe Mansion's third-level spiritual land did not have many choices.
Although there are many spiritual land resources, there are also many pill-forming monks needed. Most of the good spiritual lands are occupied by other monks or forces. Currently, these are the only small spiritual lands that can be vacated that are barely worthy of attention.
After hearing Wei Zhong's answer, Xu Xuan put down the teacup in his hand:
"If fellow Taoist disciples are dissatisfied, it is better to wait a few days and come back."
"Oh?" Wei Zhong showed a slightly confused expression.
Xu Xuan smiled and said: "We have encountered some difficulties in Ganggong Palace recently. We plan to sell part of the spiritual land to our chamber of commerce. There will probably be a choice that Fellow Daoist Wei will like."
"Zhi Gang Palace?"
Wei Zhong has not forgotten this sect, and he has been determined by its body-refining method for a long time.
‘But Luohe Mansion has been peaceful for so many years, what kind of trouble has Zhigang Palace encountered? ’
"Fellow Taoist Xu Xuan, can you tell me in detail?"
Ling Ziwei and Xie Linghua beside them also showed some expectant expressions.
"It's not a secret matter, so I'll talk to my fellow Taoist about it."
"A few years ago, Zhigang Palace seemed to have discovered a secret realm somewhere, so Palace Master Song Linfang led the two Danjie elders in the sect and dozens of foundation-building disciples to explore.
But less than a year later, things turned around.
The two Danjie elders all died, and only two of the Foundation Establishment disciples who stayed outside the secret realm survived.
Although Song Linfang, the palace master, escaped death, she was seriously injured and was able to return to the sect under the escort of two foundation-building disciples. "
"This," Wei Zhong didn't expect such an accident to happen to the once prosperous Zhigang Palace.
A single exploration of the secret realm caused him to lose half of his high-level combat power, and even Song Linfang, the palace master, was seriously injured.
Seemingly seeing Wei Zhong's unbelievable look, Xu Xuan added:
"At present, this news has been occasionally circulated in the outside world. Fellow Daoist Wei will know the authenticity if you inquire carefully."
"Zhi Gang Palace recently sold off its properties in an attempt to exchange for spiritual stones, and went to Yunzhou City to exchange for the healing treasure."
"As a third-level alchemy master, fellow Daoist Xu Xuan, is there nothing he can do about his injuries?"
Xu Xuan shook his head:
"Although my alchemy skills have reached the third level, I still don't know all about the injuries caused by the alchemy monks, let alone the extremely troublesome damage caused by the true elixir."
"Did you hurt Zhendan?"
"Yes, the true elixir is formed by the condensed practice of the elixir-forming monks. Injuring this place is tantamount to cutting off the path of practice.
It can be said that it is good that he did not die because the true elixir was broken, let alone repairing it..."
Xu Xuan shook his head.
As a pill-forming monk, Ling Ziwei also knew how troublesome this injury was and sighed.
Wei Zhong's heart moved slightly.
‘Damage to the true elixir? Isn’t the source-supplementing pill in my hand the right medicine? ’
'But since the other party is a physical practitioner, I have to see his injuries before I can judge whether my source-replenishing pill is useful. ’
"Does Fellow Daoist Xu Xuan know what kind of secret realm he discovered in Zhi Gang Palace, which is so dangerous?"
Xu Xuan shook his head:
"The Zhigang Palace is very secretive about this, and the outside world cannot get any information about the secret realm."
After hearing this, Wei Zhong stopped asking questions. The secret realm that could make the entire Zhigang Palace stumble must be extremely dangerous.
With Wei Zhong's current level of cultivation, he still doesn't have the capital to profit from it.
After discussing with Xu Xuan for a while, Wei Zhong purchased a variety of spiritual objects from Yunji Chamber of Commerce, especially various third-level water-based spiritual objects.
Then he left with Xie and Ling.
Wei Zhong was not in a hurry to go to Gang Palace to show off his ability to heal Danjie injuries.
‘Since Song Linfang has found Xu Xuan, a third-level alchemist, there’s no way she won’t come looking for herself. ’
Now, as long as Wei Zhong spreads the news of his return, the other party will naturally come to him.
Only when the other party takes the initiative to ask for it, Wei Zhong can put forward his own request.
After a tour of Yunlan City, Wei Zhong spent tens of thousands of spirit stones and purchased a large number of water-based spiritual objects.
'These are all the resources for the Yuanshuizhu to upgrade the grade, and they are also needed for the further improvement of one's own spiritual roots. '
This time, Wei Zhong openly showed his true appearance and identity, on the one hand, to let Zhigang Palace know about his news.
On the other hand, Wei Zhong's current Jindan cultivation is enough to cover the financial resources of tens of thousands of spirit stones.
After the acquisition, Wei Zhong returned to Yunxia Island with Ling Ziwei and the other two girls.
Now that Ling Ziwei and Wei Zhong have established a relationship, she naturally lives on the main island.
After being intimate with the two, Xie Linghua fell asleep due to exhaustion, and only Ling Ziwei stared at Wei Zhong affectionately.
Another round of lovemaking...
Afterwards, Ling Ziwei sat in Wei Zhong's arms and said:
"Does my husband have any way to improve his talent? Sister Ling'er's cultivation has stagnated, and I'm afraid she won't be able to achieve Dan in this life."
Wei Zhong was silent for a while after hearing this.
'Xie Linghua and I both have the same shabby talent of low-grade spiritual roots, and her cultivation method is ordinary, so it's very difficult for her to advance to the foundation building stage.
I didn't have any hope for Dan in the future, so I found a secret method for refining fake pills for her.
Now I have found a method of recreating spiritual roots suitable for myself from the secret method recorded in the "Blood Spirit Sutra", and this matter has taken a turn for the better. '
Seeing Wei Zhong lost in thought, Ling Ziwei asked:
"I wonder if the heavy water spirit body method that my husband practices can be applied to Sister Ling'er?"
Wei Zhong shook his head and told Ling Ziwei the part of the secret method that could be said.
The latter was shocked and hugged Wei Zhongyan, saying:
"My husband has suffered. I didn't expect that this spiritual body casting would have to go through such pain."
Wei Zhong felt a little guilty. In fact, when he was casting his spiritual body, he only tasted the pain when he didn't know the way at the beginning. Later, he relied on the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art" to cast the spiritual body very smoothly.
Thinking about the two secret methods of spiritual body casting and spiritual root reconstruction in his hands, Wei Zhong planned to try to use the second method to help him improve his qualifications.
'Thousand Spirit Water Stones are hard to find. Even if they are refined into spiritual bodies, they are only equivalent to the qualifications of middle-grade spiritual roots. Ten Thousand Spirit Water Stones have disappeared, and there is no way for spiritual bodies to be promoted.
It is better to reshape the spiritual roots. As long as he improves them based on his own experience, he can apply them to his body.
It does not have to be limited to the middle-grade spiritual roots. There is also hope for upper-grade spiritual roots and even earth-grade spiritual roots. ’
Thinking of this, Wei Zhong looked at Ling Ziwei in his arms again. The other party only had the talent of upper-grade spiritual roots. If she could use this method to improve to earth-grade, her hope of condensing the infant would be much greater.
