Lonely Immortal

Yes, just as Zhang Zhiwen had predicted, the city guard brother told him that the reward in this arena competition was the Xiaoxuanguan Pill.

But it is not the four major families who hold this kind of arena competition, because the four major families cannot hold this kind of competition at all, and the four major families do not have the Small Porch Pill. The big family is determined to win this competition every year.

Although the eldest brother of the city guard is also a member of the four major families, he does not seem to like the family style. This can be seen from the fact that he was sent to the most remote South City Gate to look at the gate. I will not go into details here. After all, Zhang Zhiwen also I didn’t ask too many questions. The eldest brother guarding the city didn't want to say much, but Zhang Zhiwen only knew that the eldest brother guarding the city knew Lin Mingdong and seemed to be Lin Mingdong's brother. Therefore, this eldest brother naturally had the surname Lin and was also a descendant of the Lin family, but he might not be a direct descendant.

Therefore, what Brother Lin said was more specific, and he seemed to know more. At first, he felt that he was quite a philistine, but after Zhang Zhiwen got in touch with him, he found that Brother Lin was quite upright. This was different from Lin Mingdong and Lin Mingyue. It's very similar. No wonder such people are excluded, that's normal.

But what Brother Lin said aroused Zhang Zhiwen's interest. He said that this group competition was held by a sect, and this sect is called Jindan Sect. It is famous and is one of the ten major sects in the Tianshui Mountains. And this Tianshui Mountains is The true cultivator Damn it, there are dozens of Feixian cities near the mountain range. Jindan Sect sends people to each Feixian city to hold this competition every year. Only those who win the competition and win the championship can be qualified to receive Xiaoxuanguan Dan. And you can get two at a time!

Zhang Zhiwen thinks this matter is a bit interesting. What is the purpose of Jindanmen coming to Feixian City to hold a group competition? It is nothing more than cultivating some future disciples. After all, the Jindan Sect also needs a steady stream of fresh blood. This is understandable, but why choose just one as a reward? There is a lot to talk about here. After all, Feixian City is controlled by the casual cultivator families. Don’t these casual cultivator families have any ambitions? In this case, this move of the Jindan Sect can divide the casual cultivator family and make them at odds with each other. In order to compete for the Xiaoxuanguan Pill, they will definitely fight against each other. This thing is a problem for the four major families. The only thing that can happen but cannot be asked for is whether the disciples in the clan can break through to the seventh level of Qi refining, and they also rely heavily on this kind of elixir.

Although the children of the four major families can break through on their own, which one is easier than taking Xiaoxuanguan Pill? Which one breaks through earlier? Even a blind person can probably see how great the benefits are, right?

So, what's the point of breaking up for this reward? Anyway, the four major families are actually an alliance of interests, and there is no big friendship. This is one of the intentions of the Jindan Sect.

Secondly, there are actually two Xiaoxuanguan Pills awarded to the first place, which is somewhat interesting. If only one was awarded, there would be nothing to say. The winner would have it exclusively, but it would be different if two were awarded. It's enough for the winner to take one. One of these things is enough, but what about the extra one? How to divide? And to whom? How can the four major families discuss things together? Or are you going to argue about this again?

This is the power of the Golden Pill Sect. It only used two small Xuanguan Pills, and it tore apart the various large casual cultivator families in Feixian City, making it impossible for them to become one. In this way , why are you talking about fighting with the sect? In that life, they can only wait for the sect to give them charity and control.

Zhang Zhiwen can generally guess the intention behind the Jindan Sect. It can be seen that this sect is obviously not a good thing, and it is doing whatever it takes to benefit. If this is the case for the Jindan Sect, what about the other ten sects? It is certainly self-evident. One is more shrewd than the other, and one is more ruthless than the other. If this were not the case, how could each of them occupy one side in the Tianshui Mountains? The four major families in Feixian City are all very shrewd, not to mention these ten major families. It’s a sect.

At this point, Zhang Zhiwen also has some concepts about the sect. He is no longer a newcomer who doesn't understand anything. He knows more or less about the world of cultivating immortals. Although it is still the tip of the iceberg, he can uncover it bit by bit as he Through these veils, he discovered that the real thing hidden inside turned out to be a bit uglier than the world.

But Zhang Zhiwen didn't think much about these things. He was just a casual cultivator. It was useless to think about these things. He had to improve his cultivation first before he could get serious. Now that everyone knew about this, of course Zhang Zhiwen had to prepare well.

In this arena competition, participants must be monks in the middle stage of Qi refining. In other words, low-level Qi refining monks and high-level Qi refining monks are not eligible to participate. There is no doubt that the four The children of the big families are the main participants. They have the most monks in the middle stage of Qi Refining. Therefore, it seems to be targeting all the monks in Feixian City, but in fact, there is a high probability that the number one among the four major families is still there. .

According to the city guard brother, if he remembers correctly, this kind of arena competition has been held for hundreds of years, and in these hundreds of years, the first place winners are almost all the children of the four major families, and only a few The second time was that the casual cultivators from Feixian City won the first place, and those casual cultivators actually belonged to the four major families, because they were guests of the four major families!

That means that except for the four major families, no one can win the first place. This is really not good news for Zhang Zhiwen. He knows very well that the gap between him and the children of the four major families is very big, even if His cultivation is barely the strongest among the sixth level of Qi Refining, but he has nothing now, such as spiritual weapons, talismans, spiritual beasts... nothing, and there are no powerful spells. What can he use to compete with others? Rob? Coupled with his extremely mediocre spiritual roots and miscellaneous spiritual roots, Lin Mingyue's fire and thunder spiritual roots must be far superior to his. This makes comparison a lot more difficult. If this spiritual root is not good, the power of his spells must be much lower. , So, although Zhang Zhiwen wants to fight for it, what should he fight for?

Originally, it was better that Zhang Zhiwen didn't know about this matter, but after he found out, he was not happy because Zhang Zhiwen didn't have to participate in the arena competition or something. He thought that he could get the Xiaoxuanguan Pill from other channels, but this Xiaoxuanguan Pill actually came out continuously. None of the four major families can obtain it, and they must be refined by foundation-building monks. This is tantamount to breaking Zhang Zhiwen's thoughts. If he wants to break through to the seventh level of Qi refining, he must win this arena match. Okay, he doesn't have a choice!

So after Zhang Zhiwen came back, he felt a little depressed. However, he has always been able to see things through. Otherwise, he would not be alive today. As the saying goes, he must give it a try. He will definitely not be able to do it. I have given up participating in the arena competition, but I still have to make the necessary preparations, such as spiritual weapons and so on. Let’s take a look. It is always necessary to take a look at it. It is always good to be prepared.

But now the problem came. He didn't have much money left, and he only had more than a hundred low-grade spiritual stones in total. It might be okay to buy some talismans with this little money, but if he wanted to buy spiritual weapons, it would be a fool's dream.

Now that the black market is basically gone, if Zhang Zhiwen wants to make some money by selling some elixirs, it won't work. And if he sells Spirit Fruit or something, it won't work either. In the entire Feixian City, Lin Mingyue is probably the only one who can. He wants this kind of thing, and now he can't have too much contact with Lin Mingyue. After thinking about it, Zhang Zhiwen seems to have nothing valuable on him. He can't sell Sun Yuantian's skills, can he? That thing doesn't seem to be worth much. After all, it's just a mid-level skill. People who can afford it don't despise it, and people who do despise it probably can't afford it. Another one like Feixian City It seems like no one is really blatantly selling the exercises, right? If he did this, he would probably have the patrol come over for questioning in a minute.

Therefore, neither the left nor the right worked. Zhang Zhiwen was really at a loss, and the only thing he could tinker with seemed to be the two sheepskin maps. Zhang Zhiwen felt that these things were a little special from the beginning, and maybe he could exchange them for some money. ?

He is now thinking that as long as he can sell it for some money, he should quickly sell it and then collect the money to prepare to participate in the arena competition. Otherwise, Zhang Zhiwen feels that even if he goes to the arena competition, it will probably be beaten to death. , Guang Lin Mingyue, Zhang Zhiwen felt that he might not be his opponent.

So, Zhang Zhiwen planned to first see what this sheepskin map was, and then what the price was.

Soon, Zhang Zhiwen came to the north of the city. This is the territory of the Li family and a place that specializes in buying and selling weapon refining. Zhang Zhiwen felt that the sheepskin map had something to do with the refining, but he was always cautious in doing things, so He won't go to a store with a large storefront. It's too eye-catching, at least for him now. If you don't know what a sheepskin map is, it's best to hide it. As for small shops, they must be black shops. You can't get any answers if you specify them. Maybe they were sold and paid for. So Zhang Zhiwen still chooses an ordinary, ordinary store, the location is not eccentric or central.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen found several such shops, and after some observation, he finally chose a shop across the street. The location of this shop is not remote, but it is not central. There are no people in the shop, and The shopkeeper is an old man, and he is dozing off inside. This shop is not bad. Generally, this kind of old man talks a lot, and he doesn't have much scheming.

Sure enough, when Zhang Zhiwen went in, he met the old man and explained his purpose. The old man also became interested and asked Zhang Zhiwen to take out something. Zhang Zhiwen took out a sheepskin map. He wanted to save it. These two sheepskin maps should be It's a matching pair. If it's just one, it won't be of much use. Even if the other party deceives him, he will know it.

The old man took the sheepskin map, and his narrowed eyes suddenly opened. He was quite surprised and said: "Oh, I said this little friend, this thing of yours is a genuine spiritual weapon. Could it be that you are planning to use it?" Is it for sale? This thing is rare, but the price is quite good!”
