Chapter 409: Good things come and good things happen
After thinking for a while, he informed Jiang Qiushui and Leng Yuexin of the news with the sect token, and asked the two women to organize their teams overnight to prepare for the next battle.
However, even if there are plans to cultivate power, it cannot affect his own cultivation.
Liu Yu still doesn't plan to do it himself, but plans to leave it to his assistants, and will only show up at critical moments.
You can usually issue orders and distribute resources through the assistant.
As for the right-hand assistant candidate, besides Jiang Qiushui, Leng Yuexin is also very suitable.
This woman practices magic skills and is isolated and helpless in the sect. She has also performed very well in the past two years, so she is suitable for her own use.
Thinking like this, Liu Yu gradually made a plan.
"Is this Senior Brother Qingyang's camp?"
"I'm Shi Xianglong. I've heard about my senior brother's power for a long time, so I came here to pay my respects today!"
Suddenly there was a voice outside the camp, which seemed familiar.
"Please come in."
Liu Yu put down his alchemy notes and opened the camp ban.
A tall figure walked in quickly, with a hearty smile on his face.
The person who came was one of the outer disciples who Liu Yu invested in in order to collect spiritual herbs when the Bloody Secret Realm was opened.
"Shi Xianglong, meet Senior Brother Qingyang!"
I saw this man cupping his hands heavily and saying politely.
"oh?"
"It turns out to be Junior Brother Shi."
"I haven't seen you for many years. I didn't expect you to also build a foundation. Congratulations, junior brother, for building a foundation."
"sit down."
Liu Yu looked at this person carefully for a while and smiled lightly.
"Thanks to Senior Brother Qingyang for your guidance."
"I attacked the foundation building three years ago and succeeded by luck."
Shi Xianglong smiled politely and sat on a chair as instructed.
Seeing that Liu Yu didn't drive anyone away, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Even though the foundation has been established, the pressure brought by Qingyang in front of him has not diminished at all.
Just after the foundation building was successful, he caught up with the battle of Yan Kingdom. With the strength of the new foundation building, he finally managed to save his life.
It coincided with Liu Yu's rise in fame, so Shi Xianglong also had some thoughts.
I want to see if I can rely on my previous relationship to get close to this senior brother so that I can get some protection in the future.
The various factions in the sect are intertwined, and he is a new member of the Foundation. Even if he licks his face and joins them, he will not get much benefit.
This Senior Brother Qingyang is a newly rising figure in the sect. I heard that he has the support of the elders. Now that he is getting more and more powerful, he must be lacking some people to wave the flag, right?
If you can make good friends, even if you can only wave the flag and shout, it should be better than joining some inherent factions.
Of course, there is no need to give up on one just because of one. You can do both.
Liu Yu naturally didn't know what this person was thinking. After a few polite words, he got straight to the point:
"I wonder what Junior Brother Shi is here for?"
Now that the war is approaching, he doesn't have much time to chat with them.
"I admire Senior Brother Qingyang's great achievements and came here to pay a visit and reminisce about old times."
Shi Xianglong smiled and complimented.
"Oh, is it so?"
Liu Yu stared at the other party with shining eyes and spoke calmly.
"I heard that senior brother is an excellent alchemist."
"To be honest, senior brother, in addition to reminiscing about old times, I also want to buy some cultivation elixirs for the early stage of foundation building from senior brother."
That gaze seemed to carry great majesty, which made Shi Xianglong feel heavy pressure. At this moment, all the prepared words were forgotten, and he couldn't help but express his purpose.
"Junior Brother Shi even knows this. It seems he knows Liu very well."
Liu Yu's eyes were cold, and his words were filled with a hint of chill.
"Senior brother, don't get me wrong. I have absolutely no other intentions."
"Senior Brother Qingyang's reputation is now known to everyone in the sect. I only heard about it by chance from other sect members."
Understanding the chill in Qingyang's words, Shi Xianglong hurriedly explained.
Although they were both foundation-building monks, he knew the gap between them and would never dare to offend them.
After hearing this, Liu Yu's face changed again and she smiled, as if it was just an illusion:
"Easy to say, easy to say. Junior brother Shi, don't mind. Liu just mentioned it out of habit."
"As for the second-level elixir, Liu opened two jade elixir halls in the sect."
"Junior brother, if you want to buy it, just go to the Jade Pill Hall directly."
Hearing this, Shi Xianglong barely maintained a smile, but was disappointed in his heart.
But at this moment, Liu Yu’s words changed again:
"However, when the Yan Kingdom War came, Junior Sister Jiang, who was in charge of managing the Jade Pill Hall, had to participate, so the store had to be closed."
"If junior brother wants it, Liu can sell some."
"Seeing that you and I are old acquaintances and from the same sect, we can sell it to junior brother at a discount."
"Let's do this. The market price of Jingyuan Dan is 450 spirit stones per bottle. Let's sell it to junior brother at 400 spirit stones per bottle."
After saying that, he stared at the other person with a half-smile, waiting for the next words.
"bottle?"
Shi Xianglong's heart trembled. For a new foundation builder like him with a shallow foundation, the purchase of elixirs was always based on pills.
Seeing Liu Yufeng's calm look, at this moment, he truly realized the gap between him and the veteran foundation builder.
Compared with the senior brother Qingyang in front of him, it was even more different, even bigger than the gap between Qi refining and foundation building.
Weighing the pros and cons only took a moment. Shi Xianglong immediately stood up, bent down and cupped his hands and said:
"Thank you, Senior Brother Qingyang!"
"I'm short of money, and I won't get much from my trip to Yan State. Let's buy two bottles of Jingyuan Pill first."
With that said, the man quickly took out eight middle-grade spiritual stones from his storage bag.
Liu Yu collected the spirit stones, took out two bottles of Jingyuan Dan from the storage bag, and flew over with the control of objects. The opponent gently caught them and put them into the storage bag without even looking.
Noticing this detail, he nodded secretly.
As for why this person is so embarrassed, it is not difficult to understand. This is almost the case for new foundation builders.
When most monks prepare for foundation building, they have already exhausted their accumulation during the Qi refining period.
Not to mention the failure of foundation building, even if the foundation building is successful by chance, you will often be left with nothing and have to start accumulating all over again.
Purchasing cultivation elixirs requires spirit stones, purchasing magic weapons requires spirit stones, and even the various spells in the sect's Scripture Pavilion require contributions from the sect.
In the final analysis, it is still spiritual stones, and spiritual stones are also needed for all aspects of management.
The most important thing is that the strength of new foundation builders is often not as good as that of veteran monks who have been building foundations for a long time, and it is difficult to compete with monks of the same level.
Even if the trip to the Yan Kingdom was lucrative, it would be good for Shi Xianglong to follow the main force of the sect and save his life, so the benefits he would receive would naturally be less.
In this case, it is not surprising that the other party is a little cash-strapped.
After all, unlike Jiang Qiu Shui, who has his own care, this person has no foundation at all.
Now he can still produce 800 spirit stones, which is pretty good.
"Thank you very much, senior brother!"
"Senior Brother Qingyang helped me today, and I will never forget it. From now on, in the sect, I will only follow my lead."
“If I’m asked, I’ll be there without hesitation!”
Shi Xianglong thanked him half-heartedly.
Although the discount was only a hundred spiritual stones, it was already a considerable discount for him who had just purchased a top-quality magic weapon and only had more than 800 spiritual stones on his body.
In any case, the progress of cultivation cannot be slowed down, and spiritual stones cannot be saved in this aspect.
Thinking of this, his desire to have a good relationship with Senior Brother Qingyang became even more urgent.
"You're welcome."
Liu Yu motioned for the other party to sit down, and the two started chatting about the current situation.
A quarter of an hour later, Shi Xianglong said goodbye and left.
"Every bustle in the world is for benefit, and all the hustle and bustle in the world is for benefit."
Watching this person leave, Liu Yu had some thoughts about the word "profit".
Shi Xianglong's visit seemed to have played a leading role. In the next half day, monks continued to visit him.
All kinds of foundation-building monks arrived one after another.
There are people who show good intentions and want to get close, there are people who are unconvinced and want to discuss things, and there are people who don’t have any purpose and just want to get to know each other.
As Liu Yu's reputation rose and his status within the sect increased, some things became inevitable due to open and covert fighting within the sect.
This is also normal.
In a sect, status often determines the amount of benefits distributed.
The rise of Liu Yu, a new star, will definitely change the distribution of interests at some foundation-building levels, and has attracted the attention of many foundation-building monks and even Jindan elders.
As long as he doesn't want to give up, he will have to face it sooner or later.
The way to cultivate immortality lies in the word "struggle".
Liu Yu had been prepared for this for a long time, so it was not surprising.
He would not refuse any monk who came to visit him, but he only talked briefly and was not in a hurry to show his attitude.
This disappointed some monks, but with Liu Yu's current status and strength, no monk dared to be presumptuous.
"Now that I am apprenticed to Li Changkong, in the eyes of outsiders, I should be regarded as a "lackey" of the family, right?"
After the visiting monks left, he put a sign in front of the tent saying "Closed Doors and Thanking Guests", Liu Yu secretly thought, and then smiled dumbly.
No matter what, he is indeed considered a member of the family line now and cannot get too close to the other family lineage or the master-disciple lineage.
Otherwise, it will only displease all three parties.
What's more, with the advantage of having a cheap master, and being on good terms with the Yan family and the Li family, life was pretty good.
I'm afraid that in the eyes of other families, I am already a "traitor". Even if I "reform my evil ways", I will not be better than now.
In this case, why not go all the way?
However, on the premise of not getting too close to the other courtyards, there is still no problem in contacting some foundation-building monks who have no foundation in other courtyards, such as monks like Shi Xianglong.
"Don't rush these things now."
"The most important thing right now is to survive the current war safely."
Liu Yu flashed this idea and continued to review his alchemy notes and recharge his batteries in preparation for the war.
…
To say who is most eager to destroy Baiyun Temple, it is definitely not the casual cultivators and small forces who are oppressed by it.
Instead, in the past two years, the three sects of Chu State, Yuanyang Sect, Hehuan Sect, and Cangyue Valley, divided the territory of Baiyun Temple into three parts.
With the arrival of the January period, the atmosphere in the camp became more solemn, and the monks coming and going were extremely dignified.
A war could break out at any time.
"Dong~" "Dong~"
The high, loud drum sound sounded at an unpleasant frequency, like the heartbeat of some advanced life, implying the laws of heaven and earth.
Almost as soon as it sounded, it had reached the ears of all the monks, ignoring the barriers of the camp's restrictions.
Just one day after Liu Yu arrived at the camp, an exciting drum beat sounded and spread to every corner of the camp.
The atmosphere of the camp that stretched for dozens of miles changed with the sound of drums!
"This is the sound of the Sun Drum."
Hearing the sound of the drum, Liu Yu's expression changed, and the information about Lieyang Drum flashed in his mind.
It is rumored that the Fierce Sun Drum is made from the fur of an entire late third-level monster in the Demonic Pill Stage. It is an extremely important war weapon for the sect.
The sound of drums has the power to inspire people and can greatly boost morale.
However, with his current cultivation level and the strength of his soul, the impact of this level of drumming on him is minimal.
The impact on monks in the foundation-building stage is relatively small, and the target with the greatest effect is Qi-refining monks.
"I didn't expect that the sect even deployed the Lieyang Drum."
"The drums sound and the final battle is about to begin."
Liu Yu suddenly stood up and this thought flashed across his mind.
As expected, just like after eight drum beats, the storage bag vibrated slightly, and there was movement from the sect token.
"Hurry to the XX position of the camp, it's still the same."
"Reorganize the team and wait for orders. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed!"
Take out the token and quickly read the information inside.
As expected, the decisive battle was imminent and there was no time to break up and reorganize, so the sect still let Liu Yu and other leaders take charge of the previous team.
What should be prepared was already prepared. Taking a deep breath, Liu Yu opened the ban and walked out of the camp.
At a glance, he could see all kinds of monks with different cultivation levels, and the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard in his ears.
The elders came to the front line in person and enforced the sect rules extremely strictly without any compromise.
No monk wants to experience the punishment of late arrival and does not dare to waste time.
They were in such a hurry that they didn't pay attention to others because they were in such a hurry.
When the camp was first established, a huge school field was left behind as a gathering place for troops.
The source of the drum sound was also the school grounds, and all the monks went to the school grounds.
Liu Yu did not stop and immediately walked towards the school grounds.
Flying is not allowed in the big camp, and the aisles between the tents are relatively narrow and seem a bit crowded.
However, after feeling the foundation-building level of spiritual pressure, many Qi-refining monks gave way.
Soon, Liu Yu came to the school grounds and saw the true face of the war magic weapon "Fire Sun Drum".
This is a round drum about ten feet in size, with a dark red color around it, but the two sides of the drum are as yellow as parchment paper.
On the front drum surface, there is a circle of circular flame patterns, like the pattern of the sun.
Two inner disciples of Qi Refining Dzogchen were waving drumsticks that were taller than a human being, and they were beating on them laboriously.
That unique power in the category of magic weapons is not much different from the pressure of the real Jin Dan!
No magic weapon or spiritual weapon can compare with it, just like a firefly compared to a bright moon, it is no longer on the same level.
Just a part of the power leaked is enough to make monks below the Golden Core stage marvel and feel great danger.
"Dong dong dong"
Every time the drum sounded, it was eerily transmitted to the monk's ears instantly, like the beating of his heart.
"It's only after activation and two Qi Refining Periods that it has such power."
"If Elder Jindan gets close to him and activates it, wouldn't it be able to excite souls and seize souls?"
"I'm afraid even I will be affected by it."
Liu Yu's eyes instantly closed and he came to this conclusion.
