Chapter 308 Autumn Gathering (3400 words, please subscribe)

A few days later.

Ling Pengyun rode the Fairy Crane King across tens of thousands of miles, and finally returned to the Rock Scale Snake Cave after being away for more than two months.

As soon as they entered the snake cave, the Fengying Peng who had been stationed here for the past two months came out along the snake cave path.

"Did anything happen during the two months I left?"

Ling Pengyun looked at Feng Yingpeng and asked.

Feng Yingpeng chirped twice, indicating that there was nothing.

When Ling Pengyun saw this, he didn't ask any more questions. He led Feng Yingpeng along the path and entered the second-level spirit gathering array deep in the Snake Cave that had been arranged here long ago.

This formation has the effect of gathering and purifying spiritual energy, which also makes the spiritual energy in this spiritual gathering array very pure.

And in this place where the spiritual energy of the formation is the strongest, there is an egg and a fox.

That monster egg was the black-armored turtle egg that was born from the foundation-building turtle when Ling Pengyun followed Yan Siyi and others into the Jiaoman Lake to kill the monster seven or eight months ago.

That spirit fox was the mutated spirit beast three-eyed white fox that Ling Pengyun obtained by killing Luo Qiuming.

"Unexpectedly, with the help of such a strong spiritual energy here, more than half a year has passed, and this black-armored turtle egg has not hatched yet."

"Could it be that the little black-armored turtle inside this turtle egg has extraordinary qualifications and is tempering its body with spiritual energy?"

"If this is the case, when this turtle is born, his cultivation will probably be Qi training, which will be more than a level better than Feng Ying Peng's qualifications. By then, the probability of this turtle building a foundation will also be extremely high."

"Thinking about it this way, I feel worthy of the breath of yin-yang primordial energy that I gave to this turtle egg half a year ago."

Ling Pengyun looked at the black-armored turtle egg that was constantly absorbing spiritual energy into his body, his eyes flashed brightly, and he muttered.

Last year, when Ling Pengyun was thirty-six years old, he condensed another breath of Yin-Yang Taichu Qi.

Coincidentally, he got the black-armored turtle egg whose parents were both in the foundation-building stage, and he was determined to cultivate the black-armored turtle, so he transferred that breath of yin and yang primordial energy to the little life bred in the black-armored turtle egg. , improve the qualifications of that little turtle.

As for Feng Yingpeng's innate cultivation, it is innately perfect.

Overjoyed, Ling Pengyun glanced at the sleeping three-eyed white fox again.

Seeing that the fox aura was much stronger than two months ago, his expression changed slightly.

"This white fox has not been lazy in the past two months, but his heart towards the Tao is tenacious."

"Now, I have also established a connection with Wu Tian, ​​the spiritual talisman of Bailing Sect. If I am richer in the future, I can find a third-level spiritual object for meridians to help this fox restore its foundation and regain its footing. way."

"In this way, I can have one more capable helper."

His thoughts returned, and he turned his eyes to look at the large spiritual field in the snake cave.

During the two months he left, Feng Yingpeng, who was very intelligent, had been providing water to the spiritual plants in these spiritual fields.

But those spiritual plants planted in the spiritual field are at least the first-level mid-grade, and their growth period is even longer, ranging from three years to at least fifty years to mature.

This also made it seem like the spiritual plants planted in the spiritual fields had not grown during the two months that Ling Pengyun had left.

"Fortunately, it was only delayed for two months. If it had been delayed for a longer time, it would have been troublesome."

Ling Pengyun muttered, without further delay, walked quickly to the edge of the large spiritual fields, and used the "Cloud and Rain Technique" to transform a large cloud above the spiritual fields.

"fall."

Drops of spiritual rain condensed from pure spiritual power immediately dripped from the clouds onto the spiritual plants, nourishing their growth.

Then, he performed some "ripening techniques" on those spiritual plants.

After this was done, Ling Pengyun sat cross-legged on a futon in the Spirit Gathering Formation and carefully thought about his training plan.

"It's not far away from the time when the 300-year-old Evergreen Spirit Fruit from Bailingmen matures."

"Once the fruit matures, Bailingmen will be in chaos."

"My current cultivation level is not bad when compared to Huaishui County, but if it is compared to the entire Bailingmen realm, it is still not good enough."

"I have to advance to the fifth level of Foundation Establishment as soon as possible. By then, the power of my superior natal spell, the Blue Sea Sky Sword, will also increase. Even if I am a late-stage Foundation Establishment monk, I will be able to fight."

"By then, I will be able to deal with the chaos in a few years."

After thinking about it, Ling Pengyun took a spirit-gathering pill and fell into practice.

…

Time passed gradually.

Winter passes and spring comes, and the four seasons reincarnate.

A year passed before I knew it.

This autumn.

Ling Pengyun rode the family's fairy crane king, left the Rock Scale Snake Cave, flew thousands of miles, and entered the most prosperous Tuyuanfang City in Bailingmen today, a teahouse named "Zizai".

Led by a teahouse boy, Ling Pengyun went up to the second floor and entered a private room.

The five senior executives of Bailing Sect, Qin Shi, the physical cultivator, Yan Siyi, the spiritual chef, Zhang Chuan, the weapon refiner, Xue Chao, the talisman maker, and Ye Yu, who had already made an appointment with Ling Pengyun, had already arrived.

The first time Ling Pengyun saw these five people, he noticed that except for Qin Shi, the auras of the other four people were much stronger than a year ago, reaching the middle stage of foundation building.

And these people all have a chilling air about them.

A year ago, Yan Siyi, Zhang Chuan, Xue Chao, and Ye Yu were all in the early stages of foundation building.

"It seems that since our farewell more than a year ago, Fairy Yan and others have continued to enter the realm of Python Lake to fight monsters."

Ling Pengyun muttered secretly.

Yan Siyi, Zhang Chuan, Xue Chao, and Ye Yu were stuck at the peak of the third level of foundation building a year ago. However, their foundations were unstable because they had taken too many spiritual substances to improve their cultivation.

After fighting monsters and consolidating the foundation, it is normal for the cultivation level to improve.

"Fellow Taoists, Zai came down late. Today's tea payment will be paid by Zai down as an apology." Ling Pengyun said apologetically.

"Brother Ling, this autumn gathering was decided by me a year ago. I should pay for the tea at this gathering. Besides, we have just arrived, so you don't need to do this."

Qin Shi in the private room smiled when he heard this.

"Thank you, Brother Qin, for the treat." Ling Pengyun thanked him.

"It's okay, take a seat quickly." Qin Shi said.

Ling Pengyun nodded lightly and said hello to Yan Siyi and others who were also in the private room one by one.

"Fairy Yan."

"Fellow Daoist Zhang."

"..."

Afterwards, he sat on an empty seat and drank tea with everyone and started chatting.

Because Qin Shi and others treated Ling Pengyun as a good friend, they knew everything.

This also made Ling Pengyun, Qin Shi and others become warm after a while.

Ling Pengyun also learned from the chat that the spiritual chef Yan Siyi can cook second-level spiritual food. However, Yan Siyi is only proficient in cooking the second-level low-level spiritual food of fried meat. The other dishes are not yet available. master.

Zhang Chuan, the weapon refiner, also successfully refined a second-level low-grade magic shield nine months ago based on the three-faced black-armored turtle shell he obtained.

Xue Chao, Ye Yu, Qin Shi and others are still the same as before.

Qin Shi and others also asked Ling Pengyun about the Ling family's destruction of the Luo family.

After chatting for several hours, Yan Siyi invited Ling Pengyun again after a year.

"Fellow Daoist Ling, I have never forgotten the kindness of helping you twice in the past. Now I can cook second-level spiritual food."

"It's just that my success rate in cooking second-level spiritual food is only 20%, and I can only cook fried meat spiritual food. If I want to keep an appointment, I will cook two spiritual food banquets for my fellow Taoists, a total of twenty-four spiritual food dishes. , which requires at least six thousand kilograms of foundation-building demon beast meat.”

"This foundation-building monster has a lot of flesh and blood, and it's difficult for me to take it out at the moment."

"However, I have a compromise idea."

"A few months ago, when Senior Brother Qin and I were searching for and killing monsters in the Dragon Python Lake, we found a group of black rock bear monsters."

"However, there are a large number of black rock bear demons in that group. Not only are there as many as three to four hundred black rock bear demons in the Qi training stage, but there is also one black rock bear in the early stage of foundation building, two black rock bears in the middle stage of foundation building, and one in the late stage of foundation building. Black Rock Bear King.”

"It is precisely because of the strength of these bear monsters that Senior Brother Qin and I did not dare to fight with them, so we had no choice but to give up."

"However, the four Black Rock Bears in the Foundation Establishment Stage are all very large. If we kill these four bear monsters, I can gather the monster meat needed to cook twenty-four spiritual meals for you, fellow Daoist Ling."

"I don't know, fellow Taoist, are you willing to help us kill those bear monsters?"

"By the way, outside the lair of the black rock bears, there is an orange forest that stretches for miles. There are tens of thousands of orange trees in it, and there are even five spiritual orange trees, and there is even a first-class high-grade spiritual orange tree. There is some news about entering the second level.”

"I know that your friend is a spiritual planter, and the Ling family behind him was originally from a spiritual plant family. If your fellow daoist agrees to hunt monsters with us, we are willing to exchange those five spiritual orange trees into spiritual stones and sell them to Fellow."

When Ling Pengyun heard this, his eyes shone slightly.

Although Yan Siyi now only masters the second-level spiritual food of cooking and frying meat, the twenty-four spiritual food are just fried monster meat.

But the spiritual energy contained in the second-level low-grade spiritual stone is not weak, and it is comparable to the spiritual energy of half a spirit-gathering pill of the same level.

Moreover, the spiritual energy in the spiritual food is so pure that no matter how much the monk eats, there will be no side effects. After simply refining the spiritual energy in it, it can be sent directly into the Dantian, which is similar to the spiritual water of heaven and earth.

Ling Pengyun's current cultivation level is not far from the peak of the fourth level of foundation building. If there are twenty-four second-level low-grade spiritual food to help, Ling Pengyun has some confidence to try to attack the fifth level of foundation building.

Furthermore, he is not a casual cultivator, but has a family behind him. If he can get the five spiritual orange trees this time and transplant them back to his family, it will be enough to spread for hundreds or even hundreds of years.

And the benefits brought by these five spiritual orange trees far exceed those of the twenty-four second-level low-grade spiritual foods.

What's more, among the five spiritual orange trees, there is also a spiritual orange tree that has the hope of entering the second level.

Without thinking much, Ling Pengyun immediately agreed to Yan Siyi's invitation and answered.

"I did this monster hunting thing."

When Yan Siyi, Qin Shi and others heard this, their faces showed joy.

Yan Siyi was not the only one who wanted to kill the four Black Rock Bears in the foundation-building stage and obtain the materials from them.

Qin Shi and others also thought, but it was a pity that no one in Tuyuanfang City invited them to hunt monsters together, so they had no choice but to find Ling Pengyun, an old friend again.

Qin Shi needed the hard bear bones from the late-stage foundation-building bear king to be integrated into the full-body armor-style natal magic weapon to enhance the strength of the natal magic weapon.

At the same time, he has also found a skilled weapon refiner. As long as he gets the late-stage foundation-building Bear King inner elixir, he can find that weapon refiner and refine a heavy-duty magic weapon.

Yan Siyi's idea is very simple, she wants the meat from the four foundation-building black rock bears to improve her success rate in cooking second-level spiritual food.

Zhang Chuan, the weapon refiner, needs the spiritual materials from the four foundation-building bear monsters, the Black Rock Bear, to try to refine a second-level magic weapon.

Xue Chao needs bear skin to refine a second-level spiritual talisman.

Ye Yu, a cultivator who has no skills, is wealthy, but she has a good relationship with Xue Chao, so she naturally supports Xue Chao in everything he does.

"I wonder if fellow Daoist Ling is free now? If so, it would be best to set off immediately, so as not to delay for too long and cause other problems."

Yan Siyi looked at Ling Pengyun and asked.

"Okay." Ling Pengyun nodded.

When everyone agreed, they left the teahouse together, left the Tuyuan Market, and headed towards the Jiaomang Lake together.
