I conquer the immortal with my strength

After a stick of incense.

Lou Shiyan and Xia Daoming walked out of Bailiexuan one after another.

The latter had a calm face and looked at the figure in front of him with a hint of appreciation and satisfaction in his eyes.

Lou Shiyan's performance just now was remarkable.

After some haggling, I bought nine golden feather-carved eggs in a package for 1,500 yuan, which was 300 spiritual stones lower than the original price.

For five hundred yuan, which was eighty spiritual stones lower than the original price, he bought a variety of monster meat that could enhance the master's energy and blood.

He also bought a spirit beast bag for 300 yuan, which was 30 spirit stones lower than the original price.

The spirit beast bag is a kind of space magic weapon that is different from the storage bag. It can store some living creatures, but generally it can only store some very small creatures.

The golden-feathered eggs I bought this time are living things and cannot be stored in storage bags.

When Xia Daoming saw that there was a spirit beast bag for sale in Bailie Xuan, he signaled Lou Shiyan to buy it as he was wealthy.

So at Bailiexuan, Xia Daoming spent a total of 2,300 spirit stones, not only buying nine golden feather carved eggs, but also a spirit beast bag and various monster meat that can enhance the master's energy and blood.

This harvest and expenditure were much better than Xia Daoming expected.

Therefore, Xia Daoming was very satisfied and in a good mood.

However, compared to Xia Daoming's satisfaction and good mood, Lou Shiyan felt as if he was walking on cotton, soft, one high and one low.

His palms were also sweaty.

In this life, he never thought that one day he would negotiate a big deal with someone for thousands of spiritual stones.

I never thought that in just one stick of incense, I would spend 2,300 spiritual stones at once!

Two thousand three hundred spiritual stones!

How many generations of frugality did the Lou family have to save to accumulate such a large sum of spiritual stones!

"Uncle, it's just a ninth-level Qi refining monk who has such a spiritual stone. Do you want to..." In Bailiexuan, a young man stared at Lou Shiyan's leaving back, with a trace of greed and murder in his eyes. meaning.

"Don't always think about being partial, we are running a store to do legitimate business!" The shopkeeper with a goatee squinted his eyes, but his eyes fell on Xia Daoming's back, showing a hint of fear and thinking.

In the shopkeeper's left hand curled up was a small green snake as big as an earthworm.

As he spoke, his right hand gently stroked the green snake, and the green snake slowly stretched its body.

Well!

The young man had a look of astonishment on his face.

But soon, he seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes followed the shopkeeper's gaze and landed on Xia Daoming's back.

"Uncle, does that kid have any reputation? No, it shouldn't be. He is only at the third level of Qi refining. At most, he also practices martial arts and is physically stronger." The young man looked puzzled.

"The Shocking Snake's sense of crisis is much keener than ours. Ever since that young man entered the door, it has been curled up, not daring to move. Do you think that person is powerful?" the shopkeeper said.

"Tsk!" The young man took a sharp breath of cold air upon hearing this and said, "The Shocking Snake's reaction was so strong. Doesn't that mean that person should be at least a foundation-building level expert? How is this possible?"

"Nothing is impossible. The water in the world of immortality is deep! Uncle, if I hadn't accidentally gotten this deadly snake, I would have lost my life many times!

So, when you really have no other choice, you can take a risky approach. Now that you have a stable income, you should just open a store honestly. Don't have any evil thoughts, or you might just give up your life one day. "The shopkeeper said.

Xia Daoming naturally didn't know that he missed an opportunity to make a fortune because of an inconspicuous little snake.

At this time, he and Lou Shiyan were going to go shopping around to see if they could find some good stuff.

Anyway, he just made a big fortune not long ago, and there are about 7,000 pieces of light spirit stones. Xia Daoming has not had time to carefully count and estimate other elixirs, secret books, magic weapons and other things.

Therefore, Xia Daoming felt that the more than 2,000 yuan spent at Bailiexuan was just for nothing.

Now, he is ready to continue picking up some for free.

"Old Lou, your bargaining skills are quite good. Later, you can continue to help me bargain for the things I like. Also, you can buy whatever you like, as long as it doesn't exceed fifty spiritual stones, you can count on me. Yes." Xia Daoming sent a message to Lou Shiyan as he walked.

Lou Shiyan performed well and Xia Daoming was in a good mood, so he didn't mind giving a tip.

"Fifty yuan!" When Lou Shiyan heard this, his heart started to tremble, and he felt so happy that he almost fainted.

"Okay, Mr. Xia, don't worry, I will try my best to chop!" Soon, Lou Shiyan replied via voice.

When he replied, Lou Shiyan was already determined.

After returning home, if Xia Daoming refuses to take over the Lou family, then he will move his whole family to Licheng!

Soon, the sun sets.

Under the dim dusk, a cloud of mist quickly drifted away from Bai Cui Valley.

Xia Daoming stood on the bow of the boat facing the wind, looking in the direction of Mangzhou, eager to go home.

I really gained a lot this time. I bought a lot of good things in Fangshi and wanted to take them home and share them.

Having fun alone is not as good as having fun together!

Of course, there is also the hatching and domestication of golden eagles, which Xia Daoming is also looking forward to.

This time, he also specially purchased a lot of medicinal materials for the beast spirit elixir recorded in the ancient scrolls.

Unfortunately, out of the five prescriptions suitable for raising golden eagles recorded in the ancient scrolls, Xia Daoming only purchased four medicinal materials for the beast spirit pills, including the Blood Yuan Pill, the Qingling Pill, the Lian Yu Pill, and the Sanyuan Xuanjin Pill. , the Golden Feather Vermilion Fruit, the main medicine of the last Beast Spirit Pill, the Golden Feather Peng Pill, has not been found no matter how hard I look for it. Even the store owner does not know that this Vermilion Fruit exists.

The Golden Feathered Peng Pill is the key animal spirit pill that stimulates the ancient bloodline of the golden-winged roc in the Golden Feathered Eagle's body, allowing it to break through the second level and become a third level or even higher level spiritual bird.

While Xia Daoming was looking in the direction of Mangzhou, eager to go home, Lou Shiyan frequently looked back with a look of anticipation in his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Xia Daoming couldn't help but asked curiously when he saw Lou Shiyan looking back frequently.

"Nothing, nothing." Lou Shiyan quickly turned around and replied, feeling a little disappointed for no reason.

——

Three years later.

A spaceship flies in the sky.

In the sky above the flying boat, hovering and flying were two large eagles covered with golden feathers, with golden claws like hooks, and two or three feet wide wings spread out.

The flying boat was flying, and a dark shadow appeared on the horizon in the distance.

As the airship flew closer and closer, the black shadow became clearer and clearer, and it turned out to be an endless stretch of mountains.

The mountains are becoming more and more majestic. Looking from a distance, clouds and mist surround the mountainside like bolts. Many peaks seem to be inserted into the sky and connect the sky and the earth.

Under the mountains, on a vast plain, a huge city rose from the ground.

Under the sun, the entire giant city is actually surrounded by a faint mist and glowing with rays of light, setting off the majestic and spectacular mountains behind it, just like a legendary fairy city, making people involuntarily feel awe and yearning.

"Master Xia, madams, that is Qingyuan Fairy Mountain, and the giant city at the foot of the mountain is Evergreen City, which is directly under the jurisdiction of Qingyuan Gate and not under the control of the imperial court." On the flying boat, Lou Shiyan pointed to the mountains and giants in the distance. Cheng, said respectfully.

Three years ago, Lou Shiyan was only at the ordinary ninth level of Qi refining. Now, the true energy in his body is very powerful and condensed, and he has almost reached the perfect state of Qi refining.

Three years ago, Xia Daoming returned to Mangzhou from Baicui Valley and finally incorporated Biluo Valley.

After that, through vigorous support to the Biluo Valley Lou family, the scattered immortal cultivating families in Mangzhou were gathered together.

The situation of the immortal cultivating family in Mangzhou is quite embarrassing and contradictory.

If you continue to stay in Mangzhou, you can only hold on to your ancestral heritage and just have enough food and clothing. It is basically impossible to make a breakthrough.

But if I want to develop in other states, I don’t have enough strength, and I am unfamiliar with the place. I don’t even have any background connections. Even if I go out, I can only work at the bottom of the immortal world. The spiritual stones and spiritual energy I can earn will be better than staying in Mang. The state is stronger, but it will also lead to a very tiring and undignified life.

The most important thing is that the extra spiritual stones and the spiritual energy earned by Bai Ceng are almost impossible for them to make any big breakthroughs in their cultivation and make a gorgeous turnaround.

Otherwise, no matter how miserable it is, no matter how dignified it is, even if they take some life-threatening risks, they are still willing to do it.

Xia Daoming vigorously supports the Biluogulou family.

The Biluo Gulou family showed signs of prosperity in a short period of time, and they immediately became envious of those cultivating families who were in a difficult and contradictory situation.

As a result, Tenglong Mansion soon gained some additional peripheral forces.

Even if these immortal cultivating families leave Mangzhou, they can only live at the bottom of the immortal cultivating world in other states. Even if they develop in the secular world, they will have to restrain themselves a lot.

Because there are many low-level immortal cultivators among the secular people in those states, some big families and powerful forces are often related to the immortal cultivators.

But in Mangzhou, these immortal-cultivating families are really wealthy families with a long history and intricate power, and they are super local snakes.

Tenglong Mansion gathered these families, which was equivalent to extending its tentacles to every corner of Mangzhou.

Xia Daoming was very wealthy. After gathering these families, he did not skimp on the spiritual stones and elixirs, and dispersed many of them. This not only made the poor and fearful immortal cultivating families more focused, but also cultivated some useful people in a short period of time to make up for the loss. This solved the dilemma of not having many available people in the initial stage of Tenglong Mansion.

Three years ago, Xia Daoming used these immortal-cultivating families to lay out Mangzhou and launched the "human sea tactic" to search for immortal-cultivating resources in Mangzhou.

Perhaps the resources for cultivating immortals in Mangzhou are indeed extremely poor. After spending a lot of manpower and material resources for three years, they could only find five or six acres of inferior spiritual fields close to Lingzhou that could barely grow spiritual rice.

Five or six acres of this kind of spiritual field is only enough for a third- and fourth-level Qi Refining monk to be self-sufficient.

Such gains and efforts are naturally completely disproportionate.

This makes those cultivating families who have joined the Tenglong Mansion and not only do not have to pay tribute every year, but also receive a lot of resources for cultivating immortals in vain, they feel very anxious and guilty.

He was afraid that when Xia Daoming saw that they only took spiritual stones and elixirs but did not produce anything, he would think they were dragging their feet and would kick them all out.

Then they will have to go back to living in poverty again.

It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality!

If that happens, they will definitely be sad.

However, Xia Daoming, who was taken advantage of, had a good attitude.

He knew very well that if it were so easy to find resources for cultivating immortals, it would be possible that various forces would have come to Mangzhou to seize the land, and it would be his turn to get Xia Daoming.

It must be that in the past few years, waves of forces have come, but all ended in vain, and then gradually all the forces gave up.

This Mangzhou has gradually become a poor place that no one cares about in the world of immortality.

Therefore, Xia Daoming has long been mentally prepared for the long term.

If there is an unexpected discovery, that would be the best.

If not, that's okay.

Anyway, Mangzhou is the place where he made his fortune and his foundation. He happens to be very wealthy, and he has a wife who can make money by making alchemy at home. If he spares some resources, he can at most help the poor folks.

As long as these "poor folks" can get up in the future, it will actually be a big gain for him.

According to the world he originally lived in, talent was the most important thing.

Therefore, Xia Daoming not only did not blame the Lou family and other families for not gaining anything, but for using his elixir and spiritual stone in vain. Instead, he comforted him with words and increased his investment.

Of course, Xia Daoming is not just devoted and kind.

He also has an extremely strict side, that is, he does not allow the cultivating family to bully the weak and treat human life as nothing.

This was the rule he set from the beginning.

There once was a family of immortal cultivators. With the support of Tenglong Mansion, a genius of cultivating immortals emerged. In a short period of time, he broke through from the fifth level of Qi Refining to the seventh level of Qi Refining. He stood out among many immortal cultivating families and was highly regarded by Xia Daoming, who regarded him as a foundation-builder. seedling.

But he ignored the lives of mortals. Just because one person had a small conflict with his family members, and the fault was still theirs, he actually directly killed that person's entire family.

When this incident reached Xia Daoming's ears, he immediately summoned all the immortal cultivating families and killed the cultivators of this cultivating family in front of them. From then on, this family became a secular family.

This move shocked all the immortal cultivating families in Mangzhou.

Let them realize that Xia Daoming has a very tolerant, kind and generous side, but once his taboos are violated, he also has an extremely cold-blooded side. Even if he has the talent to cultivate immortality, it will be of no use.

But precisely because of this, the Lou family and other immortal cultivating families became more and more loyal to and feared him.

half year ago.

Xia Daoming began to prepare for joining the Qingyuan Sect.

He sent some people to Evergreen City and opened two stores.

One is called Mingdanxuan, and the other is called Qiaoqi Pavilion.

The former sells low-level elixirs refined by Ji Wenyue, and the latter sells low-level talismans and arrays made by Liu Qiaolian.

In addition to earning spiritual stones, the main purpose of opening a store is to help Xia Daoming inquire about the Qingyuan Sect and find out the situation one step ahead.

Lou Shiyan showed good business talent and strength in Bailiexuan three years ago.

Xia Daoming put him and Jiao Yongbao in charge of the stores and intelligence in Evergreen City.

"Just looking at this grandeur, you are worthy of being one of the three great celestial sects in Daliang!" Xia Daoming looked at the towering mountains and huge city in the distance and couldn't help but sigh.

The flying boat flew closer and closer.

The mountains and giant cities continue to expand within the field of vision, making them even more majestic and majestic.

At this time, the sky was obviously busy.

From time to time, people would fly in from all directions on magical instruments, flying boats or spiritual birds.

In other places, immortal cultivators flying in the air are extremely rare.

But here it seems to have become very common.

Not only that, foundation-building monks who are extremely rare to see elsewhere can also be seen occasionally here.

However, the foundation-building monks obviously still have a high status in Evergreen City.

Occasionally, foundation-building monks would fly in from the sky, but the immortal cultivators would usually stay away from them.

The same is naturally true for Xia Daoming.

"What a big move, this is using a third-level formation to cover the entire city!"

When they flew within seven or eight miles of Evergreen City, Liu Qiaolian couldn't help but marvel.

Liu Qiaolian and Xia Daoming are the same age, so they are already thirty-one years old.

However, after cultivating as an immortal and taking the spiritual rice elixir over the years, not only did she not age, but she became more and more charming, with fair and smooth skin, and a plump yet graceful figure.

"The third-level formation actually enveloped the entire city. How many spiritual stones must be consumed in this day!" Ji Wenyue couldn't help but exclaimed after hearing this.

Ji Wenyue is twenty-four years old this year. She has a taller and more graceful figure with tall and straight breasts.

"If the formation is really fully activated, a huge amount of spiritual stones will be consumed every moment. However, normal operation should mainly rely on the support of underground spiritual veins, and not many spiritual stones will be consumed.

However, the Qingyuan Sect is indeed one of the three major immortal cultivating sects in the Liang Kingdom. The peripheral cities established by the sect are built on multiple spiritual veins, one of which is at least the third level! " Liu Qiaolian couldn't help but marvel at the end of her words.

"Madam, you have really good eyesight. You can tell at a glance the defensive formation of Evergreen City and the level of the spiritual veins below. I only found out about this information after staying in Evergreen City for many days." Lou Shiyan said after hearing this. Face said in admiration.

"Master Lou is overly praised." Liu Qiaolian smiled and said modestly.

As they spoke, they saw from a distance that some people flew directly over the city wall with magic weapons or spiritual birds and flew towards the city, while most people slowly landed in front of the city gate that was more than ten feet high and paid their spiritual stones. You need to apply for an identity token before you can enter.

"It is said that the founder of the Qingyuan Sect founded the sect in the Qingyuan Immortal Mountain and set aside a piece of land at the foot of the mountain as a place for relatives of the clan who were unable to cultivate immortality to live.

Firstly, it is convenient to take care of him; secondly, if a disciple with spiritual roots appears in the future, it is also convenient to guide him to the mountain gate to cultivate immortality. Later, the disciples of the Qingyuan Sect throughout the generations also felt worried about their relatives and friends, so they would bring them to live at the foot of the mountain.

Slowly, the relatives, friends, and servants of the older generation of disciples got married and had children here, and they continued to multiply. A new generation of disciples came with new people. After generations of accumulation, it was just a village at first. Now it has become a village. It became a huge city.

Wherever there are people, there are various demands. Especially in such a large city, the demand is even greater. Gradually, people who have no connection with Qingyuan Sect also migrate in.

But no matter what, a large part of the people in this city have more or less blood relations with the Qingyuan Sect, and some are even blood relatives of the more important figures in the Qingyuan Sect.

These people enjoy certain privileges in Evergreen City, and they also carry special tokens. The formation can identify these tokens, and they can fly directly over the city wall with the tokens without paying spiritual stones.

Some even have flying privileges in the inner city. " Lou Shiyan explained in time when he saw Xia Daoming and the others' eyes falling on the monks who flew directly over the city wall.

"It seems that the forces in this city must be very complicated!" Xia Daoming said thoughtfully.

"What Mr. Xia said is very true. In this place, a person who seems to have only a low level of cultivation or even a mere mortal may have a connection with the heavens.

Therefore, in this place, especially in the inner city, it is best not to easily conflict with others, as you might accidentally cause a big disaster. "Lou Shiyan said with a solemn look on his face.

Xia Daoming nodded with deep understanding, a solemn look on his face, and the flying boat under his feet had slowly landed on the ground.

This is equivalent to the emperor's feet. A seemingly ordinary citizen may be able to gain some kinship with a big shot with just a few tricks.

When the flying boat landed, the two golden eagles hovering above the flying boat also landed on the ground.

These two golden feather eagles, one belongs to Lou Shiyan, and the other belongs to Xia Daoming and his wife.

Three years ago, Xia Daoming bought back the golden feather-carved egg. When Xia Daoming took over the Lou family, he also gave it to the Lou family as a gift.

He and his wife adopted one, and the other seven were adopted by several elders from the Elder Pavilion of Tenglong Mansion.

Because they were nourished by stalactite spiritual liquid, all nine golden feather eagle eggs hatched successfully, and none died in infancy.

For three years, these golden feathered eagles ate spiritual rice and high-quality animal meat every day, and also drank the spirit beast pill specially refined for them every now and then. They grew very fast.

Although these nine golden feathered eagles have not yet evolved to the second high level, they are already extraordinary in strength. Their combat power is equivalent to the seventh or eighth level of Qi Refining. They can carry people and fly high, and their speed is faster than a flying boat.

However, the Golden Eagle needs to rest for a while every time it flies. Unlike the flying boat, it can fly as long as there are spiritual stones.

Lou Shiyan rode the Golden Eagle to and from Changqing City and Licheng City, which only took two days and nights.

Speaking of which, it is much faster than taking a flying boat.

Enter the city gate with the flow of people.

Lou Shiyan and his spirit bird have already registered their identity, and they can enter the city by paying two spirit stones.

It was the first time for Xia Daoming and their spirit bird to come to Evergreen City. They had to go to a side hall at the city gate to register their information and get an identity tag.

Identity plates are divided into temporary and different years.

Temporary status can only stay for ten days at most and costs one spiritual stone.

The prices are different in different years.

One year, it costs twenty-five spiritual stones per year.

The two-year-old ones are at a discount, but they still cost 45 yuan.

Anyway, the longer the vintage, the higher the price.

Many middle-stage Qi refining monks may not be able to save twenty-five spiritual stones after working hard for a year.

Moreover, you need to pay an additional spiritual stone for each entry and exit.

Qingyuanmen uses this high cost of living and entering and exiting the city to limit the influx of outsiders and waste their spiritual energy, and slow down the uncontrolled expansion of the population of Evergreen City.

Not only that, Qingyuan Sect’s restrictions on internal and external disciples bringing people to settle in the city have long been completely different from the original era.

At that time, there were no restrictions on the family members, relatives and servants of Qingyuan Sect disciples.

But now Qingyuan Sect's outer disciples only have at most two places to settle in Evergreen City for free.

Inner disciples, only immediate family members and two servants are eligible to settle in Evergreen City for free.

These expenses are naturally nothing to Xia Daoming.

He paid the spirit stone, applied for a one-year identity card, and then entered Changqing City under the guidance of Lou Shiyan.

Half a year later, the Qingyuan sect general opened the mountain gate to recruit disciples, and one year's identity cards were enough.

Evergreen City is very big.

The east-west wall is eighty miles long, and the north-south wall is sixty miles wide.

Evergreen City is divided into outer city, inner city, and Evergreen Lake.
