Strange mountains and rivers

Once the Chonghua Sect takes root and stabilizes, the first task for Chen Huaisheng and Hu Delu is to advance in cultivation.

For Chen Huaisheng, this is particularly prominent.

After three years of refining the sixth level of Qi, he has become a genius in the eyes of the sect and even outside the sect, so he can become the direct disciple of the sect leader.

If in the subsequent practice, the person pulls his crotch, it will become a big joke again.

The problem is that at this point, Chen Huaisheng is very clear about his current situation. If he wants to reach a higher level in practice, it will be difficult in the short term.

After several rapid promotions in a row, I failed to calm down and practice hard to consolidate the cauldron. My own foundation has been somewhat unable to keep up and is quite weak.

If you try to overcome the breakthrough in the same way as before, you will only encounter backlash.

As one of the last disciples of his family, Shang Jiuling also gave special guidance to Chen Huaisheng, asking him to practice with peace of mind for a period of time in the future. In addition to the thunder method, he must also practice hard in the spiritual realm.

Similarly, if you want to achieve success in spiritual practice, you must focus on the three spirits.

Whether it is thunder method practice, spiritual realm practice, or root and bone growth, it is inseparable from the assistance of spiritual plant elixirs.

Shang Jiuling also realized this and gave Chen Huaisheng another bottle of Yunyuan Pill.

Yunyuan Dan is different from Zuoyuan Dan, Zhongyuan Dan and Dao Zhi Sheng Powder.

Zuoyuan Dan is a basic elixir that can both strengthen the Dan Yuan and repair vitality, but its efficacy is limited.

Chongyuan Pill is a pill that specifically replenishes spiritual energy. It is extremely precious, but it is not suitable for practice.

Dao Sheng San Powder is a pure medicine for severe injuries, and is extremely effective in quickly repairing excessive spiritual power losses.

Yunyuan Dan is a warm and tonic medicine with mellow properties. It is used to improve and strengthen the body during practice. To put it bluntly, it is the same as many spiritual herbs and elixirs, but after refining and purification, the effect is better.

Seeing that Shang Jiuling valued this bottle of Yunyuan Pill for himself, Chen Huaisheng also knew the value of this thing.

If he hadn't been a direct disciple, it would probably be difficult for him to receive such a privilege.

There are 300 capsules in a bottle. Take one capsule every morning and evening before class. It is used to strengthen and nourish spiritual energy and improve your spiritual ability.

But just this bottle of Yunyuan Pill is not enough. Chen Huaisheng also knows that he cannot completely rely on Shang Jiuling.

Wang Yao, Xu Tianfeng, Liu Chun, Yao Liwei, Yuan Wenbo and Tong Tong are all disciples of Shang Jiuling, so they should all be treated equally.

Even if his prospects are promising, Wang Yao has already established a foundation, Xu Tianfeng is also preparing to retreat and attack the foundation, and Yuan Wenbo is also quite amazing. He is three years younger than himself. Shang Jiuling cannot be too favorable to one.

A bottle of Yunyuan Pill is already quite a treat, which can be felt from Wu Tianen's sigh after learning about this situation.

The support from the sect is limited, so you have to rely on yourself and rely on existing resources to have enough food and clothing. Chen Huaisheng thinks this may be more reliable.

Besides, Hu Delu, a little brother, is following me, and there are even two junior brothers, Sandang Ling and Zhao Liangkui, who are actively trying to get closer to me. How can I ignore it?

Although I had never thought about forming a clique in the sect, it would be unjustifiable if people took the initiative to approach me to show their goodwill and did not give them some help and encouragement.

Therefore, it is appropriate to find spiritual places to source spiritual material channels on your own.

It took so much time to finally find this valley. There is a Yin Spring five feet above the ground at the foot of the northwest mountain. This is a suitable place for planting Yin spiritual plants.

"Senior brother, one portion of Taiyin Baizhi, three portions of Ice Mushroom, two portions each of Blue Yin Moss and Erythroxylinum Moss, and Humid Pine Fungus. I'm afraid the soil around here is not enough."

After following Chen Huaisheng's manipulation for a few times, Hu Delu became very familiar with spiritual plant cultivation.

"Don't put the red moss there. Look at the rock pine on the cliff. Try it in the crack under the pine tree. It's enough for two parts of the red moss. Put the fungus in the crack below the cliff and find it. For the root system of the rock pine, put the seeds of the fungus and the root system of the rock pine together..."

Chen Huaisheng nodded: "Remember, you can only plant one copy of Taiyin Baizhi at a time. This thing consumes too much Yin Spiritual Energy. If you plant two copies, the others will be affected."

"This Yinquan is still too small." Hu Delu smacked his lips, "Give us more time, and if we go another ten or twenty miles north, I guess we can find a better one."

"There's no rush." ​​Chen Huaisheng glanced north, "Take your time, we may not be able to go back here in Fuyang Road for ten or twenty years, and even if we can return to Langling, we will definitely not be able to go back here. We won’t give up, so we still have time to explore this place slowly.”

"Yes, senior brother, I think Wolong Ridge is actually not inferior to Langshan and Panshan in terms of spiritual energy and spiritual springs. The only thing is that the terrain in the mountain is too steep and precipitous, and there are more monsters and beasts. Low-level cultivation is difficult. Some are at a disadvantage and dare not wander around."

Everyone knows why they dare not go further north.

The sects in this area have all been swept away with large-scale spells. When the monsters are shaken, they will subconsciously retreat and run away, or they will jump out to fight.

During the cleaning process, several second-level monsters emerged, but under the attack of the leader and several foundation-building masters, they immediately turned into corpses.

This is only here in Longlinyuan.

Like Longshou Peak and Canglong Bei, the Chonghua Sect simply sent people to inspect.

The area of ​​these two places is too large and the distance between them is not close, so I haven't had time to explore and inspect them carefully. Especially Canglong Bei is several times larger than Dragon Linyuan.

Even Chen Huaisheng only dares to go here and further out. Once he encounters a second-level ferocious beast, he has no confidence in escaping. There is no need to take such risks.

"Given time, the sect will definitely further expand the scope of exploration, and there will be opportunities." Chen Huaisheng nodded, "The number of disciples recruited is constantly increasing, and Longlinyuan cannot continue to accept them endlessly. It must expand its scope outwards. "

The third group of disciples also arrived, with as many as thirty-four people, which greatly exceeded the expectations of many people in the sect, including Chen Huaisheng.

Everyone greatly underestimated the enthusiasm that the Chonghua sect would bring to the entire Fuyang Dao and even the Sixth Dao of Yanzhou for those children from poor families with mixed surnames and small surnames who were eager to get ahead.

In fact, among the thirty-four people, only thirteen were originally selected from the clan villages.

The remaining twenty-one people were all disciples who went out to screen and recruit but were intercepted halfway, or were directly followed outside the mountain gate and submitted to the sect after review.

According to the current momentum, there will probably be a fourth and fifth batch. It will be easy to recruit more than 100 disciples this year.

Of course, it is possible that there will not be so many disciples recruited next year, but it is difficult to say for sure. Once the reputation and influence of the Chonghua Sect expands, it is possible that disciples from outside the Sixth Path of Yanzhou will come, such as those from the Fiveth Path of Youzhou, Jinyun Seven ways.

The entry of a large number of new disciples has also increased the pressure on all aspects of the sect.

Security pressure is one aspect.

After all, it can be said that these new disciples will have no fighting power and protective power within three to five years, and it will be difficult for them to form combat power even within ten years. Alternative heretics like Chen Huaisheng are hard to come by.

The pressure of spiritual materials and spiritual food is not small. To allow these disciples to get a sufficient opportunity for practice and development, the protection of spiritual food and spiritual materials is indispensable.

Ordinary spiritual food, that is, spiritual rice, millet, jade and wheat, is not bad. After all, it can rely on the offerings from surrounding clan villages and the spiritual lands and fields close to Wolong Ridge.

But spiritual materials, especially various spiritual herbs and elixirs that are more abundant in spiritual energy and are helpful for cultivation, as well as the flesh of monsters and beasts, are a huge challenge.

Now the number of disciples in the sect has swelled to more than 300, and it seems that this posture will quickly grow to 400 people.

Even if so many people only eat one pound of animal meat a day, it would cost 400 pounds.

But after successfully refining Qi, if you really need it, you can eat three to five kilograms of animal meat a day.

Especially for monks in the middle and high levels of Qi training, they basically need three to five kilograms of animal meat or spiritual plants with the same amount of spiritual energy every day. It is difficult to satisfy them just by eating spiritual food, and it will also have an impact on their practice.

But where can so much animal meat and other spiritual herbs and elixirs come from?

Disciples at the higher level of Qi Refining may still be able to earn some by hunting, gathering herbs, and the spiritual stones distributed by the sect, which may barely satisfy them, but it is difficult for disciples at the middle level of Qi Refining to be satisfied, let alone those at the lower level of Qi Refining. .

In fact, even in Langling, when the Chonghua Sect was at its most affluent, most of the disciples of the Chuan Gong Academy were unable to meet their needs for animal meat and spiritual herbs and elixirs.

The same is true for every sect.

Unless the sect is a promising genius, the sect will give special treatment, or the family is quite wealthy and can purchase animal meat or spiritual herbs from other channels.

This is also the reason why the wolf meat produced by Chen Huaisheng is so popular.

For example, the disciples in the middle and inner halls of the Chuan Gong Yuan and the Law Enforcement Yuan basically only meet their own needs with the animal meat and spiritual herbs they obtain when going out.

If there is excess, it is basically traded and exchanged between a few familiar people, and it is impossible to give it away for free.

There are almost no cases where Chen Huaisheng takes the initiative to give something away, which is why Yun He, Luo Xiuyue, his wife and Cai Jinyang had a very good impression of Chen Huaisheng at first.

One hundred kilograms of wolf meat is enough to meet the needs of a monk for twenty or thirty days. It is not a small amount.

Because of this, Chen Huaisheng thought that in the next few years, he would probably have to work hard to cultivate. Maybe he could go out to hunt occasionally, but the demand for animal meat and spiritual plants would be quite large.

Therefore, it is very important to plan ahead, find a suitable place, and plant it to ensure a steady flow of water for a long time and stable income to meet your own needs.

The current small-scale operation is not enough. You have to constantly use the old capital of spiritual stones to outsource, so as to meet the increased demand for spiritual food and spiritual materials after your next step of hard training.
