The Way of the Immortal Master
Chapter 533 Picking
The wind was howling, and the sky was full of yellow sand. An Xiaoran led a group of monks to trek through the sea of death sand.
Since becoming a second-tier alchemist, An Xiaoran has devoted a lot of energy to refining various elixirs.
This can not only meet the needs of the sect, but also her interest.
After she practiced the alchemy technique inherited from Chongxuanzong, she mastered many alchemy recipes.
The last time a team returned from the death sand sea, it brought back a piece of news.
Just near the Heifeng Graveyard, there is a large piece of Silver Moon Grass growing.
At that time, they wanted to go to pick them, but they were scattered by the sudden appearance of sand monsters.
The team that had escaped from death knew that they could not go to that dangerous area for picking by relying on their own strength alone.
So, after they returned to Yaofeng Gobi, they sold the news.
Since about ten years ago, Taiyimen took the lead, mobilized the power of the entire Hanhai Daomeng, and began to explore the death sand sea on a large scale. More and more monks joined the team of exploration, and the scale of exploration became larger and larger.
Some special resources in the death sand sea are already expensive, and the Taiyi Gate even offered a high premium to buy them.
For the teams traveling to and from Yaofeng Gobi, Taiyimen provided many conveniences, such as free supplies and maps.
The news of some unlucky teams getting rich overnight, after Taiyi Sect's deliberate exaggeration and dissemination, soon spread to the entire endless sand sea, and even spread to the Jiuqu League.
Now, not only the monks of Taiyimen and Hanhai Daomeng, but also the monks of Mobei Qi Family and Feihongzong's Foundation Establishment Stage have formed teams to explore.
Many monks from Dafeng City are casual cultivators in name, but the information from the dark hall shows that many of them belong to the major cultivating families in Dafeng City.
These monks went through the Yaofeng Gobi to explore the death sand sea.
For the outside monks, Meng Zhang did not stop them from going to the sea of death.
Firstly, the sea of death sand was too vast, and there were too many borders, so he couldn't prevent others from entering. The second reason is that the death sand sea is too dangerous, the more cannon fodder to explore the way, the better.
In fact, with so many teams entering the death sand sea, not many can really gain anything.
Not to mention those teams that suffered casualties, many teams ran empty trips, wasting a lot of talismans, pills, etc. in vain.
If it weren't for the various subsidies provided by the Taiyi Sect, these teams would have been unable to make ends meet and unable to support them.
The phenomenon of buying and selling various resource information is already very common.
An Xiaoran was refining a kind of elixir and needed some silver moon grass. She bought Yinyuecao through the channel of the sect, but it has been unsuccessful.
Fortunately, her younger brother An Moran is the head of the dark hall in charge of intelligence affairs of the Taiyi Sect. He is well-informed and has various means.
An Xiaoran showed her elder sister's majesty, and after squeezing her younger brother well, An Muran managed to buy this information.
An Moran originally asked An Xiaoran to hire a team to pick the large piece of Silver Moon Grass. But An Xiaoran was worried about others, and also couldn't wait.
So, she organized a team in the gate, and she was about to pick the large piece of silver moon grass.
As an alchemist of the Taiyi Sect, theoretically, Dan Tangtang should be under the control of Yingying. But An Xiaoran didn't like Zhang Yingying, let alone accept her control.
Although Meng Zhang strictly forbids the production monks in the door to venture into the sea of death and sand, An Xiaoran is different from the weak chicken production monks in the door. He is practicing the "Fusang Sutra", the superior exercise of Chongxuanzong that directly points to the Dao of Yuanshen. With a cultivation base in the middle stage of foundation establishment, his combat effectiveness is even more impressive.
Meng Zhang was so entangled by her that he had no choice but to train his disciples, so he acquiesced in her actions.
An Xiaoran is not a reckless person, knowing that there are many dangers in the sea of death, she must of course make various preparations in advance.
An Xiaoran has a good relationship with General Ruo Shui, and has received many teachings from General Ruo Shui.
Meng Zhang hid the news that the Weak Water God General had recovered his Golden Core Stage cultivation level very well. Except for the three Dharma Protectors, no one else in the sect knew about it.
An Xiaoran was going to find General Ruo Shui and asked her to go with him. But the weak water god will have left the Taiyi Gate long ago and headed for the depths of the Yaofeng Gobi.
An Xiaoran, who couldn't find the God of Weak Water, took the next best thing and found the God of Thunder.
Thunder God General didn't say much, and agreed to join her team.
Then, An Xiaoran invited two brothers Qian Kaiyu and Qian Kaizhou to join the team.
The two brothers of the Qian family have been casual cultivators in the cultivation world for many years, and they have a lot of experience.
The last time they encountered an accident in the Death Sand Sea and were rescued by Meng Zhang, they joined the Taiyi Sect.
After these years of trials, the two brothers' loyalty to the sect was affirmed by Meng Zhang, and they truly became members of Taiyi Sect.
The two brothers were originally monks in the middle stage of foundation establishment. After encountering an accident, their cultivation level fell to the early stage of foundation establishment, and the road ahead has been cut off.
They had already married wives and had children in the Taiyi Sect, and reproduced, and they would be able to retire in peace of mind in a short time.
Facing An Xiaoran who came to the door, they had to give face to the direct disciples of the head, and they also wanted to make a good fortune for future generations.
An Xiaoran found three more foundation-building monks from the Taiyi Gate and asked them to join the team.
An Xiaoran, who inherited the wealth from the ancestors of the An family, was originally a rich little woman who could spend a lot of wealth to hire monks. Moreover, she is also the second-tier alchemist with the most advanced alchemy skills in the sect, and there are many monks who ask her for help.
It didn't take much time for An Xiaoran to assemble a team.
After doing all kinds of preparations, the team entered the sea of death sand and started the treasure hunt.
After some twists and turns, An Xiaoran led the team and was close to the goal.
In the death sand sea, the most common thing is the wandering sand monster.
Sand monsters often appeared in groups, and once they found human monks, they would attack with all their strength like mad dogs.
The really strong teams, after gaining some experience, are not so afraid of these sand monsters.
If you encounter a small group of sand monsters, kill them directly, and if you encounter a large group of sand monsters that are incapable of fighting, just avoid them early.
Some daring teams even dared to take the initiative to break into the sand monster's lair and snatch the spirit source beads inside.
The truly terrifying existence of the death sand sea is the ghost cultivators and demon cultivators hidden inside.
In particular, demon cultivators are the greatest enemy of cultivators and the public enemy of the entire comprehension world.
If a monk wants to enter the death sand sea, the initial stage of foundation establishment is the minimum requirement. The cultivation in the middle and late foundation establishment stages is not outstanding, and there are even many monks who have completed the foundation establishment, in order to obtain the spiritual essence, they entered the sea of death.
No matter how powerful the team is, after encountering the demon cultivator, the entire army will be in danger of being wiped out.
Many of the teams that disappeared without a sound in the death sand sea are very likely to be plotted by ghost cultivators and demon cultivators.
In these years, more and more monks have entered the sea of death sand. Occasionally, some teams encountered ghost cultivators and demon cultivators, and suffered painful casualties.
An Xiaoran made sure to invite General Jinglei Shen to accompany him, just to prevent accidents and being plotted against by ghost cultivators or demon cultivators.
"It's just ahead, it's almost there."
Seeing that the morale of the people in the team was a bit low after a long journey, An Xiaoran cheered them up.
Along the way, the journey has not been smooth. We encountered sand monsters several times on the road and experienced several life-and-death fights, and everyone was a little tired.
In front is the Heifeng Cemetery where ghost cultivators gather, and ghost cultivators often haunt it.
In the death sand sea, there are generally no golden core stage monks appearing. Even if it is a ghost cultivator, the highest cultivator is the fake alchemy cultivator.
However, Ghost Cultivator's methods are insidious and secretive, and he is not an easy opponent to deal with.
The monks who entered the death sand sea knew that the Black Wind Cemetery was the old nest of ghost cultivators, and they would deliberately avoid it. If it is not a last resort, seldom take the initiative to approach.
The team that found the Silver Moon Grass also came to that location by accidentally going the wrong way.
First they were attacked by sand monsters, and later they found ghost cultivators haunting them, so they lost the courage to directly pick the silver moon grass, and chose to sell the news for profit. Only the well-informed An Moran could get the news.
The closer we got to the Heifeng cemetery, the more cautious everyone was. Everyone cheered up and observed the surrounding situation.
Probably because the bad luck along the way was exhausted, An Xiaoran and the others began to change their luck.
This extremely well-arrived team unexpectedly arrived at the destination safely and without any accidents.
An Xiaoran couldn't believe his good luck. Under the cover of her teammates, she quickly picked the ripe part of the silver moon grass.
Silver moon grass is a kind of spiritual grass that has very strict requirements on the growing environment.
As a qualified alchemist, An Xiaoran did not go fishing in the wild, but only picked the mature elixir, and did not touch the immature ones. She just wrote down the information and picked it up later.
After picking the herbs, An Xiaoran relaxed, and said with a smile: "My younger brother has no other skills, so it's not bad to inquire about this information. It's really unexpected that he can provide such accurate information."
The terrain in the sea of dead sand often changes, making positioning difficult. To be able to find this place successfully, apart from the fact that the information was accurate, An Xiaoran's luck was really good.
Before An Xiaoran finished speaking, the expression on his face changed, and he suddenly turned his head to look to the left.
Before An Xiaoran made a move, the God of Thunder had already reacted and cast his gaze over there.
At this time, the others looked over belatedly, their faces were blank at first, and then extremely shocked.
In the sky in the distance, patches of clouds as black as ink were moving rapidly towards this side.
In front of the clouds, there is a white whirlwind moving fast, as if avoiding the pursuit of the clouds.
An Xiaoran's face was serious, and he hesitated to ask Thunder God General, "Magic Cultivator?"
Thunder God General didn't speak, but just nodded.
Moxiu was still far away in the sky, and lightning flashes had already begun to appear on General Jinglei Shen's body, and his eyes seemed to burst into flames.
As Meng Zhang's direct disciple, An Xiaoran learned a lot of secrets from Meng Zhang. Among them is some history of the Taiyi Gate, and the origins of the God of Shocking Thunder.
The Taiyi Gate rebuilt in the Daheng Mountains perished in the evil disaster. Thunder God General was also in the battle with monsters back then, his body was destroyed, his soul was severely wounded, and he had to fall into a long deep sleep.
If it wasn't for Taiyimen's Mengzhang, the sect would rise again. I'm afraid General Jinglei Shen will never have a chance to wake up.
Seeing Moxiu appearing in front of his eyes, Thunder God will be extremely jealous when meeting his enemies. An old man like him who has lived for a long time can no longer hold back his temper.
The white whirlwind is flying towards this side quickly, and the black clouds behind are chasing after them, and they are about to come in front of everyone.
An Xiaoran had intended to lead the team to dodge first. Fighting Moxiu is not good for her.
"The ghost cultivator in front is handed over to you, and the old demon cultivator behind will deal with it."
Thunder God General greeted him, and took the initiative to fly into the sky to meet him.
An Xiaoran smiled wryly. He had long heard that Thunder God would have a bad temper and a warlike nature.
Along the way, he has been honestly playing the role of a team member, and he, the captain, is in charge of all major and minor matters, and he has never taken the lead.
An Xiaoran once thought that everyone might have misunderstood Jinglei Shen. Unexpectedly, the Thunder God would have an attack at this time.
As a junior in the sect, An Xiaoran naturally couldn't ignore the seniors in the sect and just focus on avoiding the battle.
An Xiaoran greeted the five monks behind him, and led them towards the white whirlwind.
An Xiaoran didn't even see through the origin of the white whirlwind, but General Jinglei said it was a ghost cultivator, so there was probably no problem.
As an orthodox monk, seeing ghost cultivators take the initiative to attack is a matter of course.
An Xiaoran's body is of the nature of fire and wood. He has practiced "burning wood skill" since he was a child, and later switched to the "Fusang Sutra" of Emperor Xuanzong.
The fire and wood attribute exercises are not only helpful for her to refine the elixir, but also have the magic of the attribute's mutual restraint when facing the enemy, especially the ghost cultivator.
An Xiaoran flew in front of the white whirlwind, and with one move, a thick blue tree rose up in front of her. Blossoming flames fell from the giant tree and flew towards the white whirlwind in front.
The Qian family brothers and three other foundation-building stage monks also attacked at the same time, attacking the white whirlwind.
The white whirlwind quickly dispersed, revealing a snow-white skull.
This ghost cultivator had been hunted down by the demon cultivator for a long time, and his vitality had already been seriously injured. After being beaten so violently by the people led by An Xiaoran, he immediately lost all his strength and only had half his life left.
"I surrender, I surrender, don't fight anymore."
The white skull kept begging for mercy.
An Xiaoran had never been in contact with ghost cultivators before, so he didn't know the nature of ghost cultivators.
However, it was beyond her expectation that Ghost Cultivator, who was known for his cruelty and viciousness in the comprehension world, was so soft.
The other party begged for mercy, and An Xiaoran also wanted to take a prisoner and learn more about the Death Sand Sea.
She casually took out a fiery red net bag, put the skull in it, and pasted a talisman to prevent him from escaping.
