Cultivation begins with separation

There are many spiritual plants of apricot trees.

However, according to the books Yi Dong saw in the Taoist temple, only this apricot tree in the whole Qingzhou can breathe out purple air.

This purple air has a certain effect of enlightenment.

The so-called enlightenment is the saying of ancient cultivators. According to the Taoist temple, it is to refresh the mind, and this effect is not that great.

In this period, spiritual plants such as enlightenment tea trees and enlightenment green bamboo can be planted on a large scale.

The fairy country has been in existence for 100,000 years, and the use of spiritual energy has far surpassed the past. Many spiritual resources that were rare or even rare in thousands of years have been turned into sustainable renewable resources.

For example, during the chaotic period of cultivation, the foundation-building pills, golden pills, and infant-transforming pills that could make casual cultivators beat their brains were all clearly marked with prices. As long as there were enough spirit stones, they could basically be bought.

During the chaotic period, spiritual plants and spiritual objects were generally graded according to their medicinal effects, from level one to level four, with three grades in each level. The medicinal effects corresponded to the three stages of the same level of cultivators. Generally speaking, the higher the grade, the more precious it was.

During the chaotic period, Taichu Zixing was only a low-grade spiritual plant of level one.

However, in the Taoist Academy, many modern cultivators have conducted much deeper research on spiritual plants. For example, the medicinal effects of many spiritual objects are only because they have not grown to a certain stage or have not undergone benign mutations.

The Mu family did not offer the highest bid for selling the Taoist Academy quota.

Yi Dong was mainly because of Taichu Zixing.

He had seen Taichu Zixing a long time ago.

He did not see that Taichu Zixing was a pearl in the sea. In fact, this was impossible. After all, Taichu Zixing had been seen by countless high-level cultivators and was determined to be a slightly mutated spiritual plant.

He valued the longevity of Taichu Zixing.

The lifespan of a general apricot spiritual plant is five or six thousand years. After Taichu Zixing mutated, Yi Dong judged that the lifespan of this spiritual plant might have become longer based on the superficial knowledge he learned in the Taoist Academy.

He was interested in Taichu Zixing not for other reasons, but simply because he wanted to refine it into his life object.

Ancient cultivators were able to refine their life magic weapons at the Jindan stage.

After researching, modern cultivators in the Immortal Kingdom discovered that life objects could also be refined during the Qi Refining Stage.

Moreover, it was not limited to any equipment or magic weapons.

Some modern cultivators refined spirit beasts into life spirit beasts, some refined mountains or rivers into life objects, and some even refined spirit veins and energy bodies such as wind, rain, thunder and lightning into life spirit veins.

In the theory of life objects in the Taoist Academy, all things can be transformed into life objects, even humans. Of course, human body research is prohibited in the Immortal Kingdom, at least intermediate Taoist academies such as Qingzhu Taoist Academy do not have information in this regard.

Modern cultivators' techniques are all-encompassing, and many techniques include the content of life objects.

If possible, Yi Dong naturally wants to refine mountains, rivers, and even more to refine spirit veins into life objects.

Unfortunately, the content in this area, like the nuclear weapons manufacturing data in the previous life, is confidential. It is basically impossible for children who are not from the top families in the fairyland to access it.

Plant-based life objects are already outdated versions in the research of the Taoist Academy.

Even so, Yi Dong could not access the refining methods of high-level spiritual plants. Only the refining methods of first-level spiritual plants were delegated to the intermediate Taoist Academy.

Plant-based life objects are also favored by many lower-level cultivators like Yi Dong. There is no other reason. Refining such things can prolong life.

"Well, when the materials arrive, I can start refining. After refining life objects, I should also start to break through the third level of Qi Refining."

Yi Dong thought.

Just then, Yi Dong took out a panel in his hand.

I saw a series of information on the panel.

This thing is like Yi Dong's mobile phone in his previous life.

Thinking of his previous life, Yi Dong couldn't help but think of the mud truck that made his life turn passively. In this situation, he didn't know whether he should be grateful for the steering wheel of the mud truck.

In his previous life, he was just a nobody, just a screw in the world. The prosperous world had nothing to do with him. After traveling here, although the protagonist of the prosperous world was not from a small family like him, he could at least breathe some happy air in this prosperous world.

So after traveling, he did not complain too much.

After reading the information on the panel, Yi Dong couldn't help frowning.

"Sure enough, interests move people's hearts. Just when things stabilized, these people started to make trouble."

Yi Dong was not angry. The family style of the Yi family was like this, or it could be said that the family was basically like this. Fighting for power and profit was instinctive, and infighting was not only the main theme.

Yi Dong had long understood that there was no warmth in the family of immortal cultivation. In the memory of his previous life, his father Yi Ye just treated him as a prop, and his mother only knew a name, and she had never even seen her face in her memory.

Under the prosperous world, there is often a decline of morality.

Many immortal cultivators will have a group of descendants.

Giving birth to a son is not for inheritance, but to get better "labor".

The Immortal Kingdom does not allow aristocratic families to hire a large number of independent cultivators, and many things within the aristocratic families cannot allow independent cultivators to participate, so they can only have children.

And having children is not harmful to female immortal cultivators, because elixirs are rampant, and after taking a set of elixirs, female cultivators may still be nourished.

The open concept makes many female cultivators change their Taoist partners more frequently than changing clothes, and the same is true for male cultivators. Many families with corrupt morals also have orthopedic operations. When I first learned about this, Yi Dong's three views were slightly shocked.

It's not that I can't understand it, after all, Yi Dong's customs in his previous life were not far behind.

With more descendants, family affection has faded.

Moreover, immortal cultivators can live longer, so naturally fighting is inevitable.

On the surface, Yi Dong is the owner of Zijin Mountain.

In fact, there are three other decision-makers, namely Yi Liang, Yi Kang and Yi Qing.

These three are all late-stage Qi Refining cultivators. They are of the same generation, but they are all 40 to 50 years older than Yi Dong.

The key to their cooperation with Yi Dong in planning Zijin Mountain is to build a foundation.

If it were a chaotic period, three foundation-building pills would shut them up.

Let alone three foundation-building pills, even three hundred would not be a big deal for Zijin Mountain.

However, these three are in their sixties and seventies, and the success rate of building a foundation is not high after taking basic foundation-building pills.

What they are pursuing is something that can increase the probability of building a foundation.

There are many packages on the market that claim to be 100% foundation-building.

These packages include pills, formations, spirit beast organizations, and many other things that are artificially priced high.

Among these packages, the foundation-building pill worth 2,000 spirit stones is by no means the most expensive thing.

Generally, it is impossible to spend more than 50,000 spirit stones on a set of foundation-building packages.

The spiritual plants on Zijin Mountain, together with the fixed assets such as spiritual veins and spiritual fields, are only worth 600,000 to 700,000 spiritual stones, and the annual profit is only 30,000 to 50,000 spiritual stones.

This is the profit output that the Mu family could only obtain through channels before. It can be imagined that after the Yi family took over, the profit would drop significantly even if it did not halve.

Moreover, the formation covering the entire Zijin Mountain was mortgaged with the Zijin Mountain, and the loan had to be repaid every year. The brothers and sisters who followed were not cattle and horses, and they also needed wages.

Why is the formation so expensive?

This formation is not the outdated formation in the chaotic period that threw a few formation flags and combined some metaphysics, and the power of the formation was extremely subtle.

This formation arranged a spiritual energy network throughout the mountain. If the spiritual energy is compared to electric current, it is a dense circuit network arranged underground, and there are also "circuit board" magic tools that were counted 100,000 years ago and several sets of combined magic weapons in key positions.

It can be said that under this formation, if the Yuanying comes, Yi Dong has an 80% chance of killing it.

You get what you pay for. The formation network also wears out, and it takes a lot of spirit stones to operate and maintain it every year.

Under all these circumstances, how can we squeeze out hundreds of thousands of spirit stones to let the three people build their foundation?

It was Yi Dong who decided to arrange this formation. For this, Yi Dong has given up a lot of benefits, such as the income from the spiritual field. He has given up the income for the next hundred years, and there are many other concessions.

Even so, the three people are still not satisfied. Yi Dong wants to see what they have discussed.

There are many buildings on Zijin Mountain, all built by the Mu family.

Soon, Yi Dong used the formation to fly to the meeting hall on the mountainside and met Yi Liang and the other two.

Yi Liang has a long black beard and looks like an immortal. Yi Kang is thin, but has bright eyes and looks smart and capable. Yi Qing is strong and simple in clothing, looking like an honest man.

"Don't talk about closing the formation. I don't agree."

"Adong, the people in Xia County are simple and honest. There have been no criminals in the past hundred years, and no theft of spiritual objects. I'm not saying that the formation should be closed all the time, but that other formations should be temporarily used as a replacement."

"Yes, the financial situation is difficult now, and everyone is in trouble. To be honest, I don't want to close the formation."

"Reasonable."

......

The three of them persuaded Yi Dong to close the formation.

The main reason is that after the formation is running, the 30,000 acres of spiritual fields will not be taken care of. In the long run, the number of spiritual fields in Zijin Mountain will gradually decrease.

The three of them persuaded Yi Dong to use cheap and affordable ancient formations.

But how could Yi Dong agree? The power of the ancient formation is subtle, and the tolerance rate is still surprisingly low. Moreover, many ancient formations have been thoroughly studied. As long as a specific node is attacked, the formation will fail. Even if the formation is changed, the essence remains the same, and the "crack code" will not be too far off.

With this password, Yi Dong couldn't sleep peacefully even with the ancient formation that was open to the public, not to mention that he had to protect his natal spirit.

Compared with the low fault tolerance of the ancient formation, the current formation is quite good. This formation is equivalent to a parallel circuit. Destroying a part of it will not completely fail. Moreover, with tens of thousands of spiritual energy "power supply" entrances, it can be said that there are no formation nodes at all.

Seeing that Yi Dong was unmoved, the three people raised their voices three degrees.

Yi Dong frowned.

He didn't understand. Now that he was in control of the Purple Gold Mountain formation, were these three crazy?

He abided by the law and might not kill them, but it seemed that putting them under house arrest was not an option. They also had many children outside.

Yi Dong couldn't help but feel a little upset. He didn't expect that these three people would make him upset before the several families in Xia County put pressure on him.

In the case that Yi Dong didn't give in, the four people finally parted unhappily.
