Cultivation: When you do things to the extreme

Three days later, inside the hut.

Xu Yang picked up his pen and was drawing talismans.

The penholder is made of green bamboo, but it has the texture of beautiful jade, exuding a faint gleaming light. The brush hair is made of high-quality wolf hair, which is hard, strong, straight and tough. The pen moves like a dragon and snake, and is steady and majestic.

The sapphire pen is a medium-grade magical instrument, priced at 800 spirit stones, and is also produced by the sapphire sect.

As one of the three golden elixir sects of the Liang Kingdom, the Qingyu Sect has a major feature, which is that it is good at making objects with "green jade".

Because this sect sits on the Qingyu Mountain, a large spiritual land, there is a third-level high-grade sapphire spiritual vein in it. Under the nourishment of this spiritual vein, the Qingyu sect has many spiritual objects, whether it is alchemy, weapon refining or talisman formation. , are all top-quality spiritual materials.

The Qingyu Sect has been passed down for thousands of years and has been at its peak in the Spring and Autumn Period. This is inseparable from this. The "Qingyu Series" of elixirs, talismans, and magical instruments are extremely popular in the Liang Kingdom's cultivation world, and Xu Yang also bought a lot of them.

I saw that he was writing in one go, with the power of thunder and lightning concentrating on the tip of his pen. In an instant, he drew seal characters on the talisman paper, and there were a few flashes of lightning.

It is the first-order spiritual talisman—the small thunder and lightning talisman!

During the more than a hundred years in Heishui River, Xu Yang had thoroughly mastered the first-level talismans and had already developed the ability to draw talismans and seals.

Now, with the magical power of "Driving Thunder and Holding Lightning" and with the help of skill characteristics, he can draw this small thunder and lightning talisman easily and freely. The success rate is as high as 70%, and it is of high quality.

The small thunder and lightning talisman is the most offensive talisman among the first-level talisman seals. Because it needs to activate the power of thunder and lightning, it is extremely difficult to draw. Most talisman masters do not dare to challenge it for fear of losing their money.

Xu Yang now not only has a success rate of making talismans as high as 70%, but the small thunder and lightning talismans he created are also more powerful than ordinary small thunder and lightning talismans due to the effect of "Thunder Talisman and Electric Seal Script".

The small thunder and lightning talisman is the most powerful talisman among the first-level attack talismans. After Xu Yang's skill characteristics were improved, its power is no different from the common second-level attack talisman.

The cost of the first level, the power of the second level, is still the "Thunder Technique" talisman. With this skill, Xu Yang can make a lot of money every day and collect countless spiritual stones.

"very good!"

Xu Yang was also very satisfied with this and put away the 1,753th small thunder talisman as an important "firepower" reserve.

If you don't have enough cultivation, you can use more than a thousand high-quality small thunder and lightning talismans to gather firepower. I dare not say that it will kill the golden elixir, but there is still no problem in destroying a foundation-building perfection or exploding a second-level formation.

This is also one of Xu Yang’s ten years of accumulation.

…

Xu Yang put away the talisman seal, as well as the spiritual ink, talisman paper, and talisman pen, then took out a sickle from the storage bag, turned around and went into the ground.

Although he has decided to start a dream practice again, he still has to deal with practical matters before that, such as harvesting this season's spiritual rice and sowing new seeds, and going to the market to replenish the supplies needed for practice. Supplies, purchase elixirs, spiritual ink, talismans, etc.

He must finish these things before he can resume his dreamland with peace of mind.

I saw him holding both sickles in his hands, charging into the field, using the martial arts fighting scroll method, his figure moved, the cold light mingled, and in a short time, he had harvested several acres of spiritual fields.

Later, he used the method of spiritual farming to shell the rice, and obtained 3,200 kilograms of blood spirit rice, 350 kilograms of large blood spirit rice, and more than 2,000 kilograms of rice husks that can be used as feed.

Xu Yang put all these spiritual rice into the storage bag, then called the golden eagle and threw it a big blood spiritual rice: "Take good care of your house!"

"Cuckoo!"

The golden eagle excitedly took the blood spirit rice in its mouth and waved its wings towards Xu Yang in a humane manner.

Xu Yang said no more, released the magic weapon, the ebony boat, transformed the Gang Yuan into magic, set up the escape light, and disappeared into the sea of ​​clouds in Dongting in the blink of an eye.

…

Bailong Island.

Compared with more than ten years ago, this Xiuxianfang city is obviously much depressed.

But depression returns to depression, and in the end the framework of the "market" is still maintained.

I heard that a few years ago, due to the squeeze of some enemies and competitors, Bailong Island City was closed for a time. It was not until the island owner broke through the middle stage of foundation building and showed his cultivation to the outside world that he could reopen.

Although the middle stage of foundation building is not as good as the late stage of foundation building, it is still enough to support a city. The enemies and opponents of Bailong Island do not dare to push too hard. After all, the situation is changing. Today they can suppress Bailong Island, but tomorrow Bailong Island You can also suppress them. If you go too far, you will end up with your own escape.

The world of cultivation is the same as the martial arts world. It is not only about fighting and killing, but also about human relationships. There is also a set of underlying rules and tacit understanding between the weak and the strong.

Xu Yang strode to Bailong Tower, faced the greeting shopkeeper, and asked unceremoniously: "Where is your chief manager?"

The shopkeeper smiled, cupped his hands and said, "The chief steward is discussing matters with the island owner. I have sent someone to pass the news. I would also like to ask seniors to go to the second floor to have tea first. The chief steward will be here in a moment."

"Um!"

Xu Yang didn't say much and went straight to the second floor.

Everyone in the hall was not surprised when they saw this.

"This senior is here again."

"King of Thunder and Lightning, Shi Jian!"

"I heard that this person practices the method of thunder and lightning, and his combat power is extremely strong, comparable to building a foundation!"

"Really or not, you are just practicing Qi, but you dare to touch a porcelain foundation-building monk?"

"Other qi training is not good, but he is a thunder method monk. If he really fights for his life, he must avoid his sharp edges when building the foundation."

"If not, how could he come to Bailong Tower to trade so many times and still be safe and sound."

"Everyone knows that this person is wealthy, even extremely wealthy, but no Jie cultivator dares to take a chance on him."

"With great strength, you can intimidate Xiao Xiao!"

"I don't know when he will be able to break through the foundation."

"I heard that Manager Yun Yan has a close relationship with this person and even intends to form a Taoist couple..."

Everyone was talking secretly, filled with gossip and scandals.

And so and so, after a moment.

"Senior, with your great presence, the White Dragon Tower will shine brightly."

Yun Yan arrived with a smile on her face, but when she looked at Xu Yang, she felt a chill in her heart.

"This person...has a breakthrough?"

Although the aura revealed by the other party was still at the twelfth level of qi training, an inexplicable sense of danger still made Yun Yan feel suspicious.

Xu Yang didn't care so much and pushed out a few storage bags: "Old rules, let's take a look."

"yes!"

Yun Yan also calmed down and checked the storage bag calmly.

Whether this person makes a breakthrough or not has nothing to do with her. In the current situation of Bailong Island, they can only do business honestly and must not destroy their own signs. Otherwise, none of them can afford the consequences.

"White corn, yellow rice, blood rice, green bamboo rice, jade rice... a total of seven thousand eight hundred kilograms."

"The total price is 3,652 low-grade spiritual stones!"

Yun Yan looked at the storage bag full of various spiritual rice, her eyes changed, but she didn't say much, she picked up the second storage bag and started checking it out.

"The Black Turtle Shield is a mid-grade defensive magic weapon. It is made with superb refining techniques. It is brand new and has not been used. There is no damage. In terms of defense alone, it is even comparable to a top-grade magic weapon, 1,500 spirit stones!"

"Green scale armor, a medium-grade defensive weapon, with superb refining techniques. It is also brand new and has not been used. There is no damage. It can be said to be a fine product. It contains one thousand two hundred spiritual stones."

"Huan Yun Bead, a medium-grade concealment weapon, is also an exquisite new product, priced at one thousand spirit stones."

"Xuan Lei Bead, a top-grade attack weapon, made from the dual power of Xuan Shui, thunder and lightning. It is the best among the best. It sells for 2,500 spirit stones."

"..."

Yun Yan looked at the various magical weapons in the storage bag, then turned her attention to Xu Yang, and said with a smile: "The quality of these magical weapons of seniors is getting higher and higher."

Xu Yang's expression remained unchanged and he said indifferently: "Why, can't you eat?"

"Senior is joking. Although my family on Bailong Island is not a big business, I can still eat a batch of magic weapons."

Yun Yan shook her head and gave a quotation: "The total price of this batch of magical weapons is 13,563 low-grade spiritual stones."

Xu Yang glanced at her and asked: "When I was walking in the market just now, I found that the prices of various elixirs, talismans, seals, and magical instruments had increased a lot. Did something happen?"

"I was about to discuss this matter with my senior."

Yun Yan nodded and said in a deep voice: "It is rumored that the three golden elixir sects of the Liang Kingdom want to join forces to open up the Hundred Thousand Mountains. They are also preparing to recruit monks from all parties and release various treasures for exchange for war merits. The foundation building elixirs are ordinary, and there are also top-quality ones. Magical weapons, even spiritual weapons, and golden elixir techniques are released..."

"The three golden elixir sects?"

"One Hundred Thousand Mountains?"

Xu Yang frowned.

Shiwanda Mountain is a dangerous place bordering the cultivation world of Liang Kingdom. It is said that there are hundreds of thousands of monsters, including many foundation-building demon generals and even golden elixir demon kings. Cultivators often go there to explore the secrets, and encounter They are all different. Some people die in the mouths of monsters, while others have to meet opportunities...

In short, a hundred thousand mountains, rich in resources, are a big piece of fat.

The three Jindan sects all made moves against him, trying to dig up the Shiwan Mountain, but in the end they were all forced back by the Jindan Demon King in the mountain.

This time, the three Jindan sects joined forces to open up wasteland, recruited monks from all sides, and even used various treasures as rewards for military exploits...

What do they want to do?

Xu Yang doesn't know.

But it doesn't matter if he doesn't know. He will definitely not go into this muddy water anyway.

so……

"The war is about to begin, and the prices of elixirs, talismans, and magic weapons will naturally skyrocket. On the contrary, the prices of various materials that cannot be immediately converted into combat power are decreasing. After all, after the opening of Shiwan Mountain, there will definitely be a large amount of materials produced. impact market prices.”

Yun Yan looked at Xu Yang and observed his expression and reaction. When she saw that he was completely uninterested in the news about this matter, especially the "Foundation Establishment Pill", the suspicion in her heart became even more solid.

So she immediately said: "In my business at Bailonglou, I have always been a childlike person. This batch of ritual instruments from my predecessors is of high quality. If we postpone selling them for a period of time, the price will definitely increase a lot."

"No need."

Xu Yang shook his head and said quietly: "Just trade according to the current market price."

"Senior is awesome!"

Yun Yan also smiled when she heard this: "In this case, I, Bailong Tower, cannot let senior suffer a loss. The price will be increased by 10% based on the market price. In addition, senior, can you still purchase materials? Now the price of materials has been reduced a lot." , you won’t suffer any loss if you buy it.”

"Can!"

Xu Yang nodded and put out the order: "According to this, all the materials will be doubled!"

"yes!"

…

After the transaction was completed, Xu Yang left Bailong Island by boat and headed straight for Dongting Lake without stopping.

Although he did not intend to wade into the muddy waters of Shiwanda Mountain, the actions of the three Jindan sects and the impending storm and dark clouds in the Liang Kingdom's cultivation world still made him a little uneasy.

Therefore, he decided to go back to the island to retreat, stay away from this whirlpool, and wait until this matter was over and everything calmed down before coming out.

Anyway, in the past ten years or so, he has used elixirs, talismans, weapon refining and other skills, as well as various outputs from farming and breeding, to accumulate a lot of wealth, and various materials needed for practice have been piled up one after another. Bag, even if he hides for decades and does not enter the world of cultivation, it will not affect his development.

So, go home, sleep, and dream!
