Chapter 46 Collecting spiritual herbs and practicing Taoism

Everyone was stunned after hearing this, and looked at Ye Ling with envy and even jealousy. Not having to accept sect missions, but also enjoying the same cultivation resources as the elite disciples in the late stage of Qi training! This kind of good thing is what all the Qi training disciples of Yaogu Sect dream of!

Ye Ling nodded with a smile, and asked Zhuang Liangshou to follow the sect's elite disciples to the ice cave for training, leaving Li Bao and Sun Erhu behind.

Ye Ling glanced at the two men and guessed that Li Bao's intention was probably related to Zhou Chong, so he only asked the other one: "Sun Erhu, why did you come to me? With your Qi training level of the second level, you have experienced a life-threatening experience in the ice cave! Haha, if I'm not mistaken, you want to find a job here?"

Sun Erhu nodded repeatedly and replied: "Brother Ye, please understand! I am tired of staying in the South Valley Herb Garden. There is nothing good there, and it is far worse than this newly discovered cave. If Brother Ye is willing to take me in, I am willing to continue to serve you!"

"You are very straightforward." Ye Ling's eyes showed a thoughtful look. He never doubted Sun Erhu's ability to collect money, but he didn't trust this slick guy after all, so Ye Ling turned to look at Li Bao.

Li Bao hurried forward and bowed deeply: "Reporting to Senior Brother Ye, I am also willing to help Senior Brother Ye guard the ice cave. Hehe, I have already reported to Master and obtained Master's permission. I think Junior Brother Sun and I will be responsible for taking care of the disciples who go in and out of the cave every day. With the concerted efforts of the two of us, we will definitely manage the entrance of the ice cave in an orderly manner, allowing Senior Brother Ye to manage it."

Sun Erhu kept nodding and said: "Senior Brother Li is right! With the two of us in charge, Senior Brother Ye can rest assured!"

Ye Ling is still very confident in his servant Li Bao. With Li Bao's supervision, Sun Erhu can indeed make the best use of his talents.

After listening to the two's request, Ye Ling nodded and said, "Okay! You two will be responsible for taking care of the entrance to the ice cave. Li Bao, this is the forbidden jade slip of the ice cave! You are responsible for opening the forbidden area at the entrance and selecting the disciples who will enter the cave for training; Sun Erhu, you are responsible for assisting Li Bao and asking them to collect the spiritual objects obtained from the training in the ice cave, whether it is 20% or 10%. Ask them to leave the rare spiritual objects, especially the exotic flowers and plants, to me after they collect them. As for the other ordinary things, you can do it yourself."

The two were overjoyed and bowed in agreement.

Then Ye Ling ordered Sun Erhu to open two stone chambers on the side of the ice cave entrance, called Li Bao over, and secretly used his spiritual consciousness to transmit the voice to ask about the old thief Zhou Chong.

Li Bao smiled and sent a divine thought to his master: "After Zhou Chong was warned by the elder of the Immortal Sect, he never dared to provoke the master again! The master can rest assured."

Ye Ling nodded and said calmly: "That's good! You and Sun Erhu work hard. Once you receive any rare flowers and herbs, keep them for me, and I will come to get them. If there is nothing important, don't come to the Bingyan Cave Mansion to disturb me, understand?"

"Understood! Everything is subject to the master's orders! I'm leaving and won't disturb the master's meditation."

Li Bao bowed and said goodbye to the master. He excitedly held the forbidden jade slip to guard the entrance of the ice cave.

Ye Ling settled them, turned back to the Bingyan Cave Mansion, set up a dark formation in front of the mansion gate, sat cross-legged and continued to practice the beast control technique.

The jade slip of the beast control spell was left to him by Elder Liu of the Immortal Sect. If he could learn this kind of spell, he could summon a spirit beast one level higher than himself. This was related to Ye Ling's summoning of the third-level snow ferret and the third-level purple ice rock beast, so Ye Ling had to work hard and practice diligently.

In addition, Ye Ling also had the Yuxu Sect's secret technique of the middle-level spirit eye technique obtained from Feng Kaiyu, an elite disciple of the Yuxu Sect, and the Nansheng Sect's secret technique of the middle-level golden light shield and the wind-based group attack Taoist technique of Feng Juan Canyun, which he found in the storage bag of the Xuanyi Xiushi of the eighth-level Qi training of the Nansheng Sect. All of these needed to be practiced well. So Ye Ling only retreated in the Ice Rock Cave Mansion all day long and didn't ask about the outside world.

Meng Chang concentrated on retreating and practicing, thinking about breaking through the second level of Qi training, and he also retreated for several days. Even he was like this, not to mention He Jingsheng, Suqin and Zishan. They were stimulated by Ye Ling's fifth-level Qi training and were also practicing in retreat, making the entire Ice Rock Cave Mansion under the ice hill quiet.

Only Li Bao and Sun Erhu at the entrance of the ice cave worked diligently every day to let 20 disciples of the sect into the ice cave for training, and then asked them for benefits when they came out.

With their means, it was almost effortless to ask for benefits, not to mention that the disciples who entered the cave for training did not dare to offend the two, and wished to give them more spiritual objects they hunted and picked. Because they knew that they would have to trouble the two again next time they entered the cave. Once they offended one of them, it would be even more difficult to enter the cave for training next time.

On this day, Ye Ling kept trying the newly learned Taoist intermediate golden shield in the cave, and he became more and more proficient. For this, he consumed a lot of golden dew spirit wine to replenish his mana.

When he practiced the wind-based group attack Taoist technique, the wind swept the clouds, the small space in the cave was obviously unable to perform this technique, so he had to go outside to try it.

Ye Ling removed the forbidden dark formation at the entrance of the cave and left the Ice Rock Cave. As soon as he came out, he immediately alarmed Sun Erhu and Li Bao who were counting the spiritual stones, spiritual herbs and spiritual minerals at the entrance of the ice cave.

The two hurriedly stopped their work and stepped forward to salute Ye Ling.

Sun Erhu had a flattering look on his face and laughed: "Reporting to Senior Brother Ye, we have gained a lot in the past few days! We have obtained dozens of monster skins and spirits, and even some disciples who entered the ice cave to train dug out ice spiritual minerals and secretly gave us some. We also have a lot of spiritual stones. In a few days, we have obtained thousands of spiritual stones!"

Li Bao also reported: "Last time Brother Zhuang Liangshouzhuang went back, he mentioned to the sect leader that the formation flags and formations in the ice cave needed spirit stones to maintain them. The sect specially allocated a sum of spirit stones, and all the younger brothers piled them into the formation. The corners of the flag are up, so I don’t dare to use them.”

Ye Ling nodded casually: "Show me all the harvest you have asked for in the past few days. How many of the exotic flowers and herbs I ordered have been received?"

"Yes!" Li Bao responded quickly: "They are all here with me. I have specially taken care of the senior brothers who went into the cave to practice and asked them to pay attention to picking them. Hehe, there are a total of more than twenty kinds of spiritual herbs, among which ice is the most important. There are mostly spirit grasses, enough to fill two storage bags!”

Li Bao and Sun Erhu did not dare to hide their secrets, so they opened their storage bags and let Ye Ling inspect them.

Ye Ling glanced at the monster materials, spiritual minerals, spiritual stones and other items, seeing that they were not rare. When he saw the two storage bags filled with spiritual herbs presented by Li Bao, he used his spiritual sense to carefully Taking a closer look, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

Ye Ling nodded and said with a smile: "Yes! Yes, these spiritual grasses and flowers belong to me. The remaining spiritual stones, beast souls and other items, you two can divide it up, and work hard! It will be your benefit!"

Li Bao and Sun Erhu were overjoyed, so excited that they thanked Senior Brother Ye repeatedly.

Ye Ling suddenly remembered something, looked outside the ice cave, and asked, "Has anyone from the Tiandan Immortal Sect sent someone recently?"

"No, they are all inner and even outer disciples of our Medicine Valley, mining spiritual minerals in the winding corridors and the first floor of the cave. Hey, thanks to Senior Brother Ye, the two of us stayed at the entrance of the ice cave to serve as deacons. , almost all the remaining inner disciples have the task of mining the Bingling Mine every month, including several of Senior Brother Ye’s friends.”

Ye Ling was slightly startled. Sure enough, he saw the ice rock cave under the ice hill. Two of the cave doors were ajar. Ye Ling was secretly glad that he had the privileges of the sect. He was exempted from all sect tasks and was happy and relaxed.

In the end, Ye Ling patted the two of them on the shoulders, tried hard, and ordered Li Bao to activate the formation at the entrance of the ice cave, and then walked directly out of the ice cave and floated away.

Sun Erhu and Li Bao didn't dare to ask any more questions. They respectfully sent Brother Ye away and began to divide the monster materials and the Ice Spirit Mine.

Ye Ling's current fifth level of Qi training is not enough to fight against the monsters in the ice cave. Even if there are monsters such as the second-level snow wolf in the ice cave, they are much more ferocious than those on the first level of the cave, and Often in groups. It was a thankless task for Ye Ling to deal with them alone.

That's why Ye Ling decided to go to the first floor of the cave to find a secluded place to practice the wind group attack technique.

After Ye Ling came out of the ice cave, he came to the dark forest on the first floor of the cave. Although it is relatively quiet here, except for the monks who go into the ice cave to practice, there are almost no other disciples here. Unfortunately, the monsters here are almost extinct. Ye Ling couldn't find anyone to test his Taoist skills, so he simply rode the fire eagle. , flying all the way south.

The first floor of the cave has a radius of tens of miles. Ye Ling has walked through it roughly, but there are still many places that he has never been to, so he drove the fire sculpture and looked at the map and jade slips while paying attention to the actual conditions of the places he passed. terrain.

Occasionally, I met fellow mining or training disciples. They looked at Senior Brother Ye on the fire sculpture with envy and admiration, and greeted him from a distance:

"Hello, Senior Brother Ye!"

"Haha, Senior Brother Ye, long time no see!"

Ye Ling nodded and smiled in response. Since he took charge of Ice Cave, his status in the sect has skyrocketed. Even the senior brothers and sisters who usually didn't even bother to say hello to him are now so enthusiastic! I wish I could have a few more words with Ye Ling and start a friendship.

After a while, Ye Ling got tired of greeting his classmates and got used to seeing how hypocritical and unnatural the enthusiastic expressions of these senior brothers and sisters were. Ye Ling asked them for a new map of the first floor of the cave that was drawn up by the disciples. He simply drove the fire eagle and flew to uninhabited places along the way, and finally arrived at a remote forest.

"This is the gathering place for the second-level rotten wood demons, which is perfect for me to practice Fengjuanwanyun! After many days of retreat and study, I have mastered the beast control technique, the intermediate golden light shield and the intermediate spiritual eye technique. I might as well release the third-level ferrets and The purple ice rock beasts are used as wind watchers and guardians respectively.”

Thinking of this, Ye Ling patted the spirit beast bag and summoned the third-level ferret and purple ice rock beast. Ye Ling sent a spiritual message to the ferret, ordering it to wander outside the wild forest and report the news at any time if a monk approached. He also asked the purple ice rock beast like a purple snowman to stay with him, and together he searched for the bad luck of the second-order rotten wood demon. .
