Chapter 165: Communication Talisman

One day, Zhang Zhixuan was breathing in the refining purple energy. Even after he established the foundation, he still practiced the Qi Accumulation Technique every day and continued to breathe out and strengthen a mouthful of innate purple energy.

It is precisely because of this kind of self-discipline and hard work that he can continue to improve his cultivation. With the help of the purple energy in his Dantian, he has reached the fifth level of foundation building at the age of less than fifty. With a monk with three spiritual roots, he can catch up with The cold smoke of the alien spirit root.

Suddenly, a transmission note flew from outside the cave. Zhang Zhixuan opened it and saw that a letter had been delivered to Tiantai Peak.

Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan flew all the way, and when they arrived at Tiantai Peak, they found the patriarch sitting on the futon with a serious look on his face. Seeing the two coming, he said, "Ma Jimin, the head of the Ma family in Jiufeng Mountain, sent a letter, saying that it was them When the family was digging Echo Stone on Chaoyin Mountain, they seemed to have discovered a spiritual stone mine. The spiritual energy on Chaoyin Mountain was getting stronger day by day, and he could no longer hide the news, so he told the nearby families. I sent a letter, let’s discuss what to do?”

Spirit stone mines are usually hidden underground. Once they are excavated, the spiritual energy stored inside will leak out, making it basically impossible to hide them.

This kind of mineral vein is very precious. There are only seven small spirit stone mines in the entire Yu Kingdom. Every time a spirit stone mine is discovered, it will inevitably trigger a large-scale conflict among the monks.

Especially after the civil strife in Wu, the power of Xuansu Palace weakened and it gradually gave up its external vassals. There are no monks restraining the four sects of Yu State, and several conflicts have broken out over various resources in recent years.

Chaoyin Mountain is located just south of the Duanyun Mountains. The Duanyun Mountains are the junction of the Qingxuan Sect and the Hongshan Sect. The southern part of the Duanyun Mountains is basically the sphere of influence of the Qingxuan Sect, while the northern part is controlled by the Hongshan Sect.

Once the spirit stone mine in Chaoyin Mountain is leaked, the Hongshan Sect will definitely come to fight for it, Taicheng County will become a battlefield between the two sects, and the five major families will be wiped out.

But a strategic resource like the Lingshi Mine cannot be fought for. When monks seek enlightenment, they sometimes have to put aside everything to fight for resources.

"This kind of matter still needs to be discussed. It's all because of the greed of the Ma family. They probably have mined some spiritual stones privately. Now the spiritual energy of the underground spiritual stone mine is leaking. Their family can't handle it anymore, so they are anxious to notify other families.

This matter still depends on the Wu family's decision. If they are willing to inform Qingxuanzong and give up the majority of the profits, we will follow suit. If someone wants to monopolize the Lingshi mine, we will be in vain, work hard, focus on preserving ourselves, and prepare for the worst. Once the situation is unfavorable, he will give up his family's mortals and spiritual veins, and move his family to Montenegro with the family monks.

Without Qingxuanzong's efforts, this spirit stone mine would never be saved. This spirit stone mine is located in our Taicheng County. Once it encounters war, I am afraid that our family monks will also be in trouble. "After thinking for a moment, Zhang Zhixuan explained his analysis.

"You thought well. Since this spirit stone mine is located in our Taicheng County, even if it is within the sphere of influence of Qingxuan Sect, Qingxuan Sect has the upper hand morally. Moreover, Chaoyin Mountain is located in the south of Duanyun Mountain Range, which is closer to us. With the formation in place, it will be easier for us to defend. If the Hongshan Sect attacks with all its strength and mobilizes a large number of monks, the amount of spiritual rice consumed by crossing the Duanyun Mountains will be enough for them to attack. Without the help of Qingxuan Sect, our five families would not be able to defend it because there are few high-level monks."

The two discussed it and decided to leave Qingchan to guard Lingjing Mountain, and the two of them went directly to Jiufeng Mountain, the gate of the Ma family.

Jiufeng Mountain is located in the northernmost part of Taicheng County, about more than 10,000 miles away from the Zhang family's Lushan Mountain. Going north from Jiufeng Mountain for another seven or eight thousand miles, you will enter the edge of the Duanyun Mountain Range.

After crossing the Duanyun Mountain Range, which stretches thousands of miles, we entered the hinterland of the Yu Kingdom.

There are four major sects in Yu State. Qingxuan Sect is located in the southeast. Directly north of them is Hongshan Sect. Nanlu Pavilion is located in the northwest of Qingxuan Sect. The farthest place from Qingxuan Sect is Huanshui Sect, which is dominated by female cultivators.

Of these four sects, two are located in the southern part of Duanyun Mountain Range and two are located in the northern part of Duanyun Mountain Range.

Among the four major sects of the Yu Kingdom, the Huanshui Sect, which is dominated by female cultivators, is the most powerful. This sect has three Jindan cultivators. The remaining three sects are not much different, there is only one golden elixir stage ancestor. However, when it comes to the Zifu period monks below, the monks from Qingxuan Sect and Nanlu Pavilion are more famous because they often fight against monsters.

Zhang Zhixuan and the two flew for four days before arriving at the mountain gate of Ma's house on Jiufeng Mountain.

The head of the Ma family, Ma Jimin, saw the two arriving and personally went down the mountain gate to greet Zhang Zhixuan and the two. At this time, the foundation-building monk from the Zhu family in Liucheng, which was closest to Jiufeng Mountain, had also arrived. This man's name was Zhu Hun, and his cultivation was only at the third level of the foundation-building stage. .

Among the five major families in Taicheng County, the Wu family is the most powerful. Not counting the power of Qingxuan Sect, the family has five foundation-building monks, followed by the Liu family of Taibaishan, with three foundation-building monks, and then the Zhang family of Lushan. There are also three Foundation Establishment Stage monks, and the remaining Jiufengshan Ma Family and Liucheng Zhu Family only have one Foundation Establishment Stage monk.

There are thousands of monks in the entire Taicheng County, but it is the dozen or so pillars of the five major families that have truly succeeded in building the foundation. Occasionally, a casual cultivator who succeeds in building a foundation will leave Taicheng County and enter Black Mountain to practice.

After all, compared with the massive resources spent on cultivating a third-level spiritual vein, it is much easier to seize the spiritual vein from the mouth of a monster.

But there is a premise. It is easy to seize the spiritual vein, but it is difficult to hold it. There are not only third-level monsters in the Southern Wilderness, but also fourth- and fifth-level monsters. Once you encounter a monster of this level, you will not only lose the mountain gate, but also lose your soul. There will be life-threatening danger.

Therefore, even if the foundation-building monks open a mountain gate and occupy the spiritual veins in the southern wilderness, they will not choose a place that is too desolate. They can only choose to occupy the spiritual mountains near Qidafang City.

Only with the support of the Zifu period monks in Qidafang City, the safety of the spiritual veins occupied by the nearby monks can be guaranteed.

Zhang Zhixuan and his two men waited for a few days, and the foundation-building monks from the Liu family in Taibai Mountain and the Wu family in Yanlai Peak also arrived.

In the entire Taicheng County Zhuji family, except for the isolated Hu family in Jiuhua Mountain, all the remaining family monks have arrived.

Among the five major families in Taicheng County, the Wu family of Yanlaifeng has always been the leader. When they saw Wu Xiangjie, the head of the Wu family, coming, everyone gave their hands to him and asked him to take the lead.

The reason why everyone admires Wu Xiangjie is not only because of the strength of the Wu family, but also because Wu Xiangjie obeys the rules, is fair in dealing with things, has foresight in major matters, and can know how to advance and retreat. He relied on more than a hundred years of life to be respected by the foundation-building monks of the five major families.

Wu Xiangjian bowed his hands humbly and said: "I don't know about the situation in Chaoyin Mountain yet. Since Taoist Fellow Ma has called everyone here, why don't we go down to the mine to have a look. If we are lucky enough to find a miniature spiritual mine, then Our five major families will jointly develop a micro mine, but it will not attract the greed of the Hongshan Sect. The five of us can still hold it together.

If there is a small spiritual mine inside, Chaoyin Mountain must arrange a fourth-level formation and arrange for Zifu period monks to guard it. I am afraid that we will not be able to defend this spiritual mine, and the share of the spiritual mine will be given to the majority of Qingxuan Sect. That's my opinion, do you guys have anything to add? "
