I will survive with proficiency

Refining room.

‘The perfect Wan Lei Bamboo. ’

Chen Ping looked at the Wan Lei Bamboo in his hand, his eyes shining.

Wan Lei Bamboo takes ten thousand lightning strikes as the watershed.

For Ten Thousand Thunder Bamboo, the more times it can be struck by thunder, the better. For more than 10,000 times, the classification will no longer be based on the number of times the sky thunder strikes, but will be judged based on the qualitative change brought about by the sky thunder bombardment.

Uniform and clear diamond-shaped black spots appearing all over the body are the signs of the best Wanleizhu.

The rhombus-shaped black spots of the Thousand Thunder Bamboo in front of me are perfectly even and clear.

It can be seen that Miss Six really put her heart into it.

In fact, if she wanted to do it perfunctorily, she could have taken a Wan Lei Bamboo with a few diamond-shaped black spots scattered around.

She has indeed gained a lot of resources in recent years.

These resources are extremely rare, and it would be really difficult to obtain them without her provision.

Especially in the Cangqing Ancient World where resources are scarce.

Chen Ping recovered his thoughts and focused his eyes on the Wan Lei Bamboo in front of him. With his consciousness condensed, Wan Lei Bamboo flew up and floated above the refining furnace.

Then Xuanyuan's thunderbird cage appeared.

The ground fire was suddenly ignited.

"Birdcage, Kai!"

Chen Ping cast a curse, and the earth fire and infant fire entangled him, and he began to upgrade the birdcage.

This process was easy for Chen Ping.

A few days later, the transformation was successfully completed.

Looking at the final birdcage, I feel the powerful aura contained in it.

Chen Ping only felt that he had another small layer of protection in the face of the tribulation.

With full-level or even super-standard weapon refining skills and top-notch materials, in this case, even if faced with the original Zijin Dao-killing Thunder, as long as it is not too excessive, he can successfully deceive the way of heaven, and he can even gather thunder rhyme.

Um.

Security +1.

Continue to practice, and you will be halfway to becoming a god.

Three years later, after Chen Ping and Yu Lingchun spoke to each other, they silently left Yishui Villa and went to the Lord's Mansion of Ronghua City. After spending money to use the commercial teleportation array, they soon appeared in another Xiuxian City within the boundaries of the Guan family.

Teleport again multiple times.

A few months later, a large immortal cultivation city appeared under the jurisdiction of a sect called Wanjian Sect.

This time the gathering of monks from the human world is in this city of immortality.

After staying in the city for several days, the meeting was successfully ushered in.

The rally has a nice name.

It’s called ‘Zhiyouhui’.

The friend meeting takes place in a manor, and you can enter with an invitation token.

"Senior, please stay. This is a private gathering. Senior, do you have a token?" At the entrance of the manor, a monk guarding the door respectfully said.

Chen Ping took out the token:

"I come from the border of the Guan family in the state of Wei and come to participate in the friends meeting. This is the token."

After the token was verified, a person immediately led Chen Ping into the manor.

Because it was an invitation-only event, and only Nascent Soul cultivators could participate, there were not many people, maybe dozens.

It is said that some monks even came from outside Wei.

This is the reception before the banquet.

Most of the monks were sitting in the pavilion by the lake chatting.

A few flamboyant monks floated on the lake out of thin air and talked, their clothes fluttering.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, welcome to you." Brother Su, who had gone to Yishui Villa to invite Chen Ping, saw Chen Ping coming in and was the first to greet him.

After not seeing each other for several years, Brother Su was even more energetic.

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Su. Nice to meet you." Chen Ping greeted him politely.

"Yes, we haven't seen each other for several years." Brother Su laughed:

"Come on, these are all fellow Taoists. Let me introduce you to Fellow Daoist Chen."

Seeing Brother Su say hello, several other monks who were standing relatively close to Brother Su also came over to say hello.

Under the introduction of Brother Su, Chen Ping got to know several monks who were currently communicating with each other and came from the human world. Some of them were the monks who came from the human world when the channel was opened recently.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, Fellow Daoist Ke, fellow Taoists, please chat slowly, I'll go over and be busy for a while." Brother Su left without a few words.

Brother Su seemed to be the convener of this gathering. He was quite busy, wandering in and out of the crowd to entertain everyone.

Treat guests like a host.

He seemed unusually high-spirited.

"Hey, Fellow Daoist Su should be the one with the smoothest practice among the monks like us who came from the human world, right?" Someone looked at the back of Brother Su and sighed.

"Who says it isn't? It is said that he is attached to the Yu family, one of the four major families, and is highly valued by the family."

"Of course, have you heard of Shuangling City? It is under the jurisdiction of Fellow Daoist Su. Otherwise, how could Fellow Daoist Su not return to the human world twice when the passage was opened?"

"A role model for our generation."

"."

Chen Ping was stunned for a moment.

After practicing outside Ronghua City for more than two hundred years, he seldom inquired about the monks from the human world, let alone who did well and who did not.

I never thought that one of the rulers of Shuangling City was actually a monk from the human world.

From this point of view, this monk Su is indeed doing well.

The monks who entered the Cangqing Ancient World through the opened passage were completely different from those like Chen Ping who entered through the Lingxi Corridor.

Each step through the Lingxi Corridor is not easy.

But not necessarily the former.

Many monks who enter the human world from the Cang Qing Ancient World do not necessarily reveal their identities. Just like Guan Xinyi back then, the people they bring are not necessarily geniuses. Yu Lingchun and the other three are definitely not gifted.

Therefore, many people are envious of Brother Su's achievements.

"Do you know Fellow Daoist Chen and Fellow Daoist Su well?" After Brother Su left, one of the monks came over and took the initiative to chat.

This man's surname was Ke, and Chen Ping had greeted him during the meeting just now.

"We have met once before, so we are not too familiar with each other." Chen Ping clasped his hands.

Brother Ke's expression remained normal and he asked again:

"I wonder which continent in the human world Chen Daoyou comes from? I come from the Xuanhua Immortal Realm. I wonder if the old world with Chen Daoyou is critical?"

Um.

It's like wearing a large business cocktail party before wearing it.

I opened my mouth to ask which province I was from.

"Coming from a remote place called Piaomiao Continent." Chen Ping said casually.

There is no hiding it. I will also inquire about the situation on this continent later.

After hearing this, Brother Ke thought for a while and seemed not to remember which continent the Piaomiao Continent was. He nodded politely with a slight smile, and then said:

"Fellow Daoist Chen, please chat first. I'll go over there and have a look. There are two close friends I know over there."

Brother Ke is not a close friend.

It's because Chen Ping is a monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and he doesn't know the core members of the Zhiyouhui like Brother Su. He is also a monk from a remote continent. At first glance, he is not a capable person, and it is not worth wasting time to talk.

Chen Ping naturally saw what Brother Ke was thinking.

He enjoys leisurely life.

He came today just to inquire about the situation in the human world.

"I just heard that Fellow Daoist Chen is from the Piaomiao Continent?" A middle-aged monk waited for Brother Ke to walk away, then came over and clasped his hands slightly:

"I met Daoyou Chen in Xiajianghe."

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Jiang. Thank you for meeting me. Does Fellow Daoist Jiang know about Piaomiao Continent?" Chen Ping returned the greeting.

After talking with each other, I found out that Jiang He not only knew about the Piaomiao Continent, but he himself came from the Piaomiao Continent.

The two of them have a certain connection.

It's just that the river comes from the east of the Piaomiao Continent, which is thousands of miles away from the Western Wilderness, so I don't know the situation in the Western Wilderness.

The reason why Jiang He came to the Cangqing Ancient World was because his own cultivation had encountered constraints, and he wanted to use the Taoist charm here to break through the barriers.

"What was the situation in the Piaomiao Continent before Fellow Daoist Jiang came? Are there any remnants of the demon clan?" Chen Ping was concerned about this.

"Demons have always existed, but after the mainland has been closed for hundreds of years, there are far fewer demons than before the closure. However, after hundreds of years of physical and mental injuries, the number of monks in the human world has also been greatly reduced, and the differences between various sects have The overt and covert fighting has never ceased."

Jiang He seemed to recall some unhappy experience and shook his head as he spoke.

After a pause, he smiled and said:

"To be honest, when I went to the Cangqing Ancient World, the sect had just repelled a group of pretenders. If it weren't for my own opportunity, I shouldn't have left the sect when it was about to survive."

Chen Ping's heart sank slightly.

A leaf knows autumn. It seems that more than two hundred years have passed, and the sequelae of the closure of the human world have not improved.

Struggles and encroachments between various sects are still surging.

Not even a large sect like Jiang He's, which had the Nascent Soul Lord, was spared the disaster.

I don’t know what’s going on in Lingxiao City?

What is the situation of Tianyan Sect?

"I dare to ask fellow Daoist Jiang, two hundred years ago in the human world, there was a matter of confinement and restoration between the human world and the demon world. I wonder what happened next?" Chen Ping asked.

I don’t know if Jiang He knows.

Not everyone in the human world knows about this matter. In fact, if it weren't for such a big event as the imprisonment and restoration, only a few monks would know about it.

At least low-level monks know very little about it.

"I have heard about this matter, but I am not a prisoner and don't know much about it. I just heard that the repairs were pretty good and effective. It is rare for the passage to be breached by demons afterwards. However, it is rumored that this matter should not be discussed too much. Cause the demons to backlash." Jiang He whispered.

Demonic backlash?

Most of them are rumors to suppress public opinion.

Chen Ping continued to ask:

"Have you ever seen those envoys running around to imprison you, Daoyou Jiang?"

That is, the white-bearded Taoist.

"Never, I just heard about it. Why is Fellow Daoist Chen so interested in this matter?" Jiang He smiled.

"It's nothing, it's just that a friend was involved in this matter, so I wanted to know more about it." Chen Ping made up a reason calmly.

Then he continued to inquire, but Jiang He didn't seem to know much about it and was just an outsider.

Chen Pingyuan originally wanted to find out how active the white-bearded Taoist was in the human world through inquiring.

He guessed that he was not the only one who refused to cooperate back then. If he could find out how active the Taoist with white beard was, he might be able to figure out Shengxian Valley's attitude towards those who refused to cooperate back then.

But unfortunately, I didn't find out anything.

"Do you, Daoyou Chen, make a living in the Guan family realm?" Unlike Chen Ping, who was concerned about the situation in the human world, Jiang He was more concerned about the situation in the Cangqing ancient world.

"Yes, in Ronghua City." Chen Ping didn't hide it. Brother Su knew about it.

"How is the situation over there? Is the Guan family easy to deal with?" Jiang He inquired with great interest.

Seeing Chen Ping's confusion, Jiang He smiled bitterly and said:

"Why."

"I'm not afraid of Daoist Fellow Chen's jokes."

"Originally, I wanted to come to the Cang Qing Ancient Realm to break through the shackles, but the shackles were not broken through and the resources were exhausted."

"Now that I have traveled around, I have discovered that the Cangqing Ancient World may not be better than the human world. There are too few resources here, and the good resources are tightly grasped by several major families and sects. If you want to start from It’s really hard for them to get food out of their hands.”

"I make a living in the Immortal City of Liangshan Sect, and there are many resources that Liangshan Sect will not release at all."

Chen Ping heard what Jiang He meant.

Jiang He may have thought of changing his city to make a living.

Actually.

It’s the same in every city.

The scarcity of resources is a consensus in the Cangqing Ancient World.

In the realm of the Guan family, even if Chen Ping is concerned with senior sister Xin Yi, and even if he can provide the Guan family with good-quality Huaying Dan, it is still very difficult to obtain resources from the Guan family.

If it weren't for Miss Six, a money-spinner, Chen Ping would have had no choice but to compromise and use some bad resources to practice.

However, seeing that Jiang He was very interested, Chen Ping also chatted with him about the situation in Guancheng.

When he learned that Chen Ping was serving the Guan family, Jiang He repeatedly inquired about the Guan family's attitude and openness towards outsiders.

"I dare to ask Fellow Daoist Chen, if you are married to the Guan family, have you ever heard of their attitude towards such monks with foreign surnames?" Jiang He asked in a low voice.

Chen Ping hesitated:

"I'm really not sure about this."

This is trying to take a shortcut.

This is the case in the Cangqing Ancient World. The large sects and families are not so thirsty for Yuanying monks, but they monopolize resources.

Even the control rights to enter the secret realm have been divided and monopolized, resulting in every monk who enters the secret realm having to pay a high admission fee. Even some extremely rare treasures of heaven, materials and earth will be forcibly purchased if they are obtained. .

The small sect wanted to win over the Yuanying monks.

But I don’t have any resources at hand.

Whether it is the Liangshan Sect or the Guan family, they treat airborne personnel in the same way.

Moreover, Chen Ping also learned over the years that in this territory, the antagonistic relationship between the Guan family and the Yu family was not an isolated case. It was the same in almost every neighboring sect, and the struggle for territory never stopped.

The reason is the same, because there are few resources.

If you can fight for one more secret realm, that's one.

The two chatted for a while, and the banquet officially began.

First there was the president’s talk.

The president is a great master of the ninth level of Nascent Soul. From his conversation, Chen Ping vaguely heard a trace of this man's ambition to form his own force.

This friend meeting seems to be more than just mutual help.

The president's bitter words successfully aroused resonance among the monks in the human world. Everyone looked like "I have been suffering for a long time" and felt unhappy.

Then the president gave another passionate speech.

Everyone was aroused to great ambition.

"Everyone, the greatest advantage of the Cang Qing Ancient World is its abundant spiritual energy and Taoist charm. This is no different no matter where you are in the Ancient World."

"What's wrong?"

"It's a resource."

"I have been in this world for hundreds of years, longer than everyone here, and I have a deep understanding of this. I once had a friend who was originally alone, but later he gathered together into a hill and had a territory under his own control. In the end, he also owned a Secret realm, ruins, and a group of faction disciples.”

"The comrades who worked with him at the beginning all solved the resource problem completely." The president said impassionedly.

Just imagine, the Cangqing Ancient World without resource problems would basically be a paradise-like existence.

But I don’t know what the considerations were. Although the president had some intentions, he never fully revealed that he wanted to establish his own faction.

It is not impossible to establish your own faction in the Cangqing Ancient World. This door is open to everyone, but establishing a faction does not necessarily mean that the resource problem is completely solved.

These are two different things.

At the following cocktail party, everyone's enthusiasm was high.

Chen Ping saw the president, Brother Su and several others interspersed among the crowd and communicated with various monks, high-spirited.

"I heard that Fellow Daoist Chen has a close relationship with the Guan family?" When the president came over, he took the initiative to chat with Chen Ping for a few words.

"It's not that we have a close relationship, it's just some cooperation." Chen Ping chatted for a few words in a nonchalant manner.

Brother Su also smiled and said:

"Fellow Daoist Chen, go to Shuangling City for a walk when you have time. I'm quite a bit naughty there. If Fellow Daoist Chen comes, we can invite a few fellow daoists to have a drink and talk together."

"Fellow Daoist Su is determined. I will definitely do it next time."

After chatting for a while, the president and others left.

During this period, Jiang He, who was standing aside, never waited for the president to take the initiative to propose a toast to him. He felt aggrieved and couldn't help but spat after the people left:

"Pooh."

"Snobbery."

Chen Ping smiled and said nothing.

It can be seen that only a few monks in the late Nascent Soul stage, especially those on the eighth or ninth level, had in-depth exchanges with the president and others.

Chen Ping showed others his cultivation level in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and he was the kind of person who would not be treated enthusiastically, but would not be ignored completely.

Jiang He was in the early stage of Nascent Soul and was basically a transparent person.

"It's not a good thing. If you still want to build a sect, you probably just want to use others to seek resources for yourself." Jiang He cursed in a low voice.

"Say less." Chen Ping smiled.

Jiang He smiled awkwardly and changed the subject:

"But Shuangling City, where Brother Su is located, is not far from Fellow Daoist Chen, just a few months' journey away."

"Brother Su is really good at running a business. At a young age, he has become a core member of the Yu family with a foreign surname. He controls an entire city and cannot use up all the resources."

"This time, the president and I are building momentum, and I heard that he doesn't ask for much. He is indeed a role model for us."

"Fellow Daoist Chen is close to him and is a monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, so I can keep in touch with him more."

Chen Ping smiled and said nothing.

Not to mention whether Brother Su is worth talking to, even if Brother Su is really a powerful person, Chen Ping has no interest in making friends with him.

Even when facing the Guan family of the Huashen family, he has not tried to fawn over or fawn over these years.

If you like butterflies.

Butterflies should not be chased.

Instead, you should plant flowers.

Chen Ping prefers equal exchange.

Just like with Guan Dayan, one party provides the Infant Transformation Pill, and the other party provides the Guan family with opportunities, equal exchange, and equal status.

No one can control anyone.

At the next banquet, Chen Ping found a few new monks who had come to the human world and asked about the situation in the human world.

But most of them know little about the whereabouts of the white-bearded Taoist.

This is somewhat regrettable.

But this trip was not in vain, at least I learned the news that the human world is still in chaos.

It's just that this chaos has nothing to do with the demons.

But the grievances left between each other during the lockdown period continue.

Then Chen Ping found an excuse to leave early, took the opportunity to sell two Infant Transformation Pills in this Xiuxian City, and then returned quietly.
