Chapter 134 The dangers of the chaotic land

"I'm very confused as to why the shops in Saibian City only accept exchange for rare spiritual materials and cannot buy them with spiritual stones. Are spiritual stones not valuable here?" Henry Zhang asked doubtfully.

The female cultivator smiled slightly and said, "Is it the first time for these two fellow Taoists to come to our border city?"

"Yes." The two nodded.

"Is that no wonder? The spiritual stone contains rich spiritual energy, which can quickly replenish the lack of spiritual energy in the body. It is a hard currency wherever you get it, but the situation here in Border City is a bit special."

"What's so special?" Henry Zhang asked curiously.

"Fellow Taoist, do you know why the area outside the fortress is called the place of chaos?"

"The Chaos Land is extremely dangerous. I heard that there are great terrors inside."

The female cultivator nodded and said, "That's true. Each of the 36 strongholds has different dangers. Some are extremely dark and cold, with corpses and beasts infested. Some are broken and forbidden, and you will die if you enter. Some are filled with fire and demons. Fire breeds, but these are not the most dangerous.”

Henry Zhang was even more confused: "Then what is the most dangerous thing? What does this have to do with not being able to use spiritual stones to buy rare spiritual materials?"

"It matters a lot. Most of the chaotic areas are spiritual energy vacuum zones, and monks in the spiritual energy vacuum areas cannot absorb spiritual energy with the help of spiritual stones."

"What?" Henry Zhang was shocked. He didn't expect that in this realm of cultivating immortals, there was actually a vacuum zone of spiritual energy.

But then he had another question: "The existence of the spiritual energy vacuum zone is understandable, but why can't we use spiritual stones to absorb spiritual energy in the spiritual energy vacuum zone?"

"Once in the spiritual vacuum zone, these spiritual stones will turn into ordinary stones, and the spiritual power in the monk's own Qi sea will gradually dissipate until all disappear."

"How could this be?"

"There are many speculations about this situation in the Land of Chaos. Some say it is a punishment from heaven due to too many killings. Some say it is the God Transformation War that destroyed the spiritual energy veins. Some say this place is originally a fragment of an ancient forbidden land that was unsealed during a calamity. There are many different opinions.”

"In a land of chaos, can I use spiritual pills to restore my spiritual power?"

"Most spiritual pills only assist the sea of ​​​​qi to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy. If there is no spiritual energy around, how can it be absorbed? As for spiritual pills containing rich spiritual energy, once they enter the chaotic land, the spiritual energy inside will slowly dissipate, but not It will be as fast as a spiritual stone."

"In this case, if you enter the chaotic land and become a mortal directly, I am afraid that no monk will dare to enter. Then why does the Qingyun Sect still set up 36 strongholds in the chaotic land?"

"Most of the chaotic land has a spiritual energy vacuum, but there are also some areas where some spiritual energy can be extracted from the earth veins. The 36 strongholds can extract the earth vein spiritual energy to replenish it, which will have little impact on the monks."

After listening to the other party's explanation, Henry Zhang finally had a certain understanding of the chaotic land.

At the same time, I was secretly afraid in my heart.

Fortunately, I found out clearly that if I rashly entered the Bone Desert battlefield without spiritual power, I would probably have a narrow escape from death.

Wei Ruyan frowned at this moment.

She came to the Bone Desert battlefield this time just to collect these elixirs.

However, she didn't have many rare spiritual materials to exchange for them.

Although the old man from the Ten Clans has it, after all, the two of them are not relatives.

She still understands the principle that favors become thinner the more they are used.

Wei Ruyan's eyes were full of disappointment and he said: "Forget it then. When I enter the Bone Desert battlefield, I may be able to collect some rare spiritual materials and come here to exchange for these elixirs."

"I can..." Henry Zhang wanted to say something else.

"I already owe the elders of the ten clans. If I owe you more, I really don't know what I can repay."

Henry Zhang stared at her.

Wei Ruyan's eyes dodge and he quickly lowers his head.

"Okay, let's exchange it after we come back from the Bone Desert battlefield." Henry Zhang sighed and said.

Henry Zhang turned to ask: "I want to buy some second-level spiritual materials. I also want to exchange them. Don't I need to receive spiritual stones?"

"Yes, but the purchase of second-level spiritual materials is in the private room on the second floor, and will be received by Uncle Song."

"Uncle Song? Senior Foundation Architect?"

"Yes."

Henry Zhang was surprised. He did not expect that a store would have a foundation-building monk recommending spiritual materials.

He said to Wei Ruyan on the side: "Fellow Daoist Wei, please wait downstairs for a moment while I go to the second floor to buy some second-level spiritual materials."

"it is good."

Henry Zhang followed the female cultivator directly to the second floor.

An old foundation-building man on the second floor chuckled and said, "Old man Song Tian asked, what kind of second-level spiritual material do you want to change?"

"Are there purple sunflower seeds and green wood fruits here?" Henry Zhang asked.

"Ziyangcao, Qingmuguo? The main medicine of the Foundation Building Pill? Yes, but not for sale."

Henry Zhang wondered: "Why?"

"According to the Qingyun Sect's rules, the main medicine for refining the Foundation Building Pill is not allowed to be sold to outsiders."

"Can't it be easier?"

"If the Qingyun Sect knew that our Lingxiao Pavilion was selling the main medicine for refining the Foundation Building Pill, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to open in this border city."

"Are there seeds of purple sunflower seeds and green tree fruit? This won't be controlled, right?"

"The Qingyun Sect does not control the seeds, but we at Lingxiao Pavilion do."

"Give me three copies of each."

"What do fellow Taoists exchange for it? Although it is just seeds, after all, they are the seeds of the main medicine for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill. They are still relatively rare."

"Do you think this elixir can be exchanged?" Henry Zhang took out a jade box.

Song Tianwen opened the jade box, and a strong fragrance of elixir overflowed from it.

"Half a golden elixir of rejuvenation." Song Tianwen was a foundation-building monk after all, so he didn't make a fuss like ordinary store clerks.

"Do you think I can change it?"

"I am an innocent young man from Lingxiao Pavilion. Fellow Taoist, this half of the Qi-Reviving Golden Pill can be exchanged for five parts of the seeds of purple sunflower and green tree fruit."

"Okay, Senior Song is really impressive."

After getting 10 seeds, a smile appeared on Henry Zhang's face and he put the seeds into the storage bag.

"My little friend, there are still any spiritual materials that need to be exchanged. The Qi-restoring elixir in your hand can be regarded as hard currency that is hard to come by in Fortress City. If it goes to other business areas, I'm afraid it won't be sold at such a high price."

"Why is this?" Henry Zhang asked puzzledly.

"In the land of chaos, all things containing spiritual power will dissipate. Only this golden elixir can always retain spiritual power. This is a hot commodity in the hands of waste collectors."

"What does a waste digger do?"

"Haha, I'm afraid this is my first time coming to this border city. I don't know but it's not strange. The waste diggers are monks who search for various rare spiritual materials deep in the chaotic land."

"I heard that in the spiritual energy vacuum zone, the monk's cultivation will gradually disappear. How can anyone enter the depths of the chaos-changing place?"

"My little friend is right, but as long as you can return to a stronghold with spiritual energy before the spiritual power in your body is exhausted, your cultivation will not be affected. The rare spiritual materials around the stronghold have basically been found. Some dig out The Wilderness can only go deeper into the chaotic land."

"Then I'm afraid there are many waste diggers who entered the depths of the chaotic land and never came out again, right?"

"Yes, many waste collectors directly turned into mortals, but they just licked the blood with the tip of the knife to gain some opportunities."

Henry Zhang was quite emotional after hearing this.

He remembered that the host's parents were only in the early stage of Qi refining, and the three-point spiritual field could not provide for cultivation, so they had no choice but to take risks and enter the black forest to hunt monsters, and died in danger.

The road is ruthless, just to fight for a chance of survival.
