Chapter 210 Renting a Cave

Xiao Lin finally understood after listening patiently that the ancient Xuan Sect's method of recruiting disciples was quite different from that of the five major sects.

Of course, the first path is the same. Anyone whose spiritual root level is higher than the earth spiritual root can directly join the sect. It can be seen that no matter where you are, qualifications are very important factors. .

The second article is relatively new to Xiao Lin, but it is somewhat similar to the imperial examination he heard from the old people in the village when he was ordinary. Yuxi country also has an imperial examination to select outstanding talents. I heard it happens every three years.

However, the old man in Xiaolin Village who taught them how to read couldn't read a single book. Naturally, it was impossible for him to teach people who could take the imperial examination.

As for the third article, Xiao Lin had some doubts in his heart. He went to Fengzhou Bones Battlefield and killed ten demonic monks. How many demonic monks must there be before a large number of casual cultivators can kill them?

Seemingly seeing the doubts in Xiao Lin's mind, Meng Ping said: "To the east of Fengzhou is Kuzhou, which belongs to the Black Demon Sect. The Black Demon Sect also occupies several states in the Southern Territory. In terms of strength, Not inferior to Gu Xuanzong at all.”

"Furthermore, I heard that one of the conditions for joining the Black Demon Sect is to kill ten immortal monks on the Bone Battlefield. In fact, the so-called demonic and immortal ways are not all the same. Within the several states where the Black Demon Sect is located, cultivators Although most of what they practice are demonic techniques, which are vicious and cruel, in the final analysis it is just a kind of technique. How can a technique be good or bad? In the final analysis, it is still a dispute between the ancient Xuan Sect and the Black Demon Sect. "

Hearing this, Xiao Lin looked at Meng Ping differently, but after understanding the truth about the conditions for joining the sect, he was speechless. To put it bluntly, the struggle between the two sects requires a large number of low-level casual cultivators. It would be a bit cruel to make a decision based on life.

But after thinking about it, Xiao Lin felt that it was natural. On the one hand, the so-called killing of ten cultivators from the other side would naturally weaken the strength of the cultivators within the Black Demon Sect's sphere of influence. On the other hand, it would also weaken the cultivators within his own sphere of influence. A test that can be said to be the best of both worlds.

Xiao Lin then thought about the catacomb trial he participated in in order to join Dancao Mountain. In comparison, it was even more cruel. Tens of thousands of cultivators entered the catacombs, but in the end less than a thousand came out.

It seems that no matter where you cultivate, if you want to move up, you have to go through cruel struggles.

The queue entering the city kept shortening as the two talked, and soon it was their turn.

After roughly understanding the power situation here, Xiao Lin became more and more full of expectations for this fairy city within the influence of the ancient Xuanzong.

In such a huge fairy city, there are still a lot of rare cultivation resources in it.

After paying five pieces of low-grade spirit stones, Xiao Lin entered the city. After entering the city, Meng Ping said goodbye to Xiao Lin, and the two parted ways, while Xiao Lin walked straight into the fairy city.

Although the entrance fee of five low-grade spiritual stones is not much to Xiao Lin, who is in the foundation-building stage, it is a bit too much for a large number of monks in the Qi-refining stage. Xiao Lin saw that Meng Ping When he paid the entrance fee, his face was trembling, which showed how much pain he felt.

The scene in the fairy city did not disappoint Xiao Lin. There were many shops, and there was a large shop every few miles.

Just in those small shops, Xiao Lin saw a large amount of cultivation materials. The customers of these shops were naturally mainly Qi Refining Stage monks, but there were also a small amount of second-level materials for sale in the shops. Although these materials, Xiao Lin Lin was already a little disdainful, but it made him full of expectations for those big shops.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lin started wandering around the Southern Wilderness Fairy City. Soon Xiao Lin came to the west of the city. There was actually a large market here. There were countless monks in the Qi Refining Stage coming and going, which surprised Xiao Lin. What's strange is that while he was wandering around, he sensed at least four or five cultivators in the foundation-building stage who were also visiting Xifang City in this city.

"Huh?" Xiao Lin stopped in front of a stall. The stall owner was a man in his forties with a thick beard, sitting upright with his eyes slightly closed.

As if sensing someone stopping in front of his stall, he opened his eyes.

Xiao Lin looked at the pile of inconspicuous wrinkled seeds on the stall, and saw the bearded man open his eyes. Xiao Lin pointed at the small pile of wrinkled seeds and asked, "Are these the seeds of bitter ginseng?"

Bitter ginseng is one of the auxiliary elixirs for refining Qi Yuan Dan, and it is also a relatively rare elixir. Xiao Lin once searched for it, but he never found anything. He did not expect that it would be found in the market of the Southern Wasteland Fairy City. found it.

"How to sell the seeds of this bitter ginseng?" Now that he saw it, Xiao Lin would not miss it.

"If fellow Taoist disciples want this small pile of bitter ginseng seeds, it will cost them eighty low-grade spiritual stones." The thick-bearded man glanced at Xiao Lin and said.

He casually took out a small bag of spiritual stones from the storage bag and handed it to the thick-bearded man.

The thick-bearded man glanced at Xiao Lin in surprise. He seemed a little surprised as to why Xiao Lin didn't even tell the price and just bought it. However, he didn't say anything, but wrapped the small pile of seeds and handed it to him. Xiao Lin.

Xiao Lin took the seeds, put them in the storage bag, turned around and left, and continued shopping.

The items in this market really opened Xiao Lin's eyes. The complete range of items far surpassed the market in Xueling Fairy City. Xiao Lin felt that the trip was worth it. Xiao Lin even felt a little grateful to Liu Mei. If it weren't for this woman If you drive yourself out of the snowfield, you may not discover this fairy city.

Xiao Lin actually found all the dozens of spiritual materials for refining Qi Yuan Dan in this market. Xiao Lin bought hundreds of them at once. The only thing that disappointed him was that he did not find the seeds of "Bitan Qingguo" after walking around this market.

This Bitan Qingguo is the main ingredient for refining Qi Yuan Dan, so it is naturally more precious. Xiao Lin did not expect to be able to buy this spiritual fruit directly, but what disappointed him was that even the seeds were not sold.

However, Xiao Lin did not gain nothing. In addition to buying bitter ginseng seeds, he also bought a few seeds of three-flame grass at a stall.

Three-flame grass is a second-level spiritual grass. Xiao Lin had seen the introduction of this spiritual grass in the Dancao Mountain Stone Hall. Three-flame grass can be used to refine some second-level spiritual pills for feeding spiritual pets. Not only that, this three-flame grass has another function, that is, once the spiritual insect eats three-flame grass, there is a certain probability of evolution.

In the past, Xiao Lin would have no interest in this kind of spiritual herbs, but after he had the Soul Devouring Fire Gu, the Three Flame Grass was extremely precious to him. You should know that the price of the truly mature Three Flame Grass on the market is far higher than that of the Five Elements Spiritual Grass.

Just these few seeds of the Three Flame Grass cost Xiao Lin more than 160 low-grade spiritual stones.

After strolling in this market for more than two hours, Xiao Lin looked up at the dim sky, and after buying a few maps about the vicinity of the Southern Wasteland Fairy City, he turned around and left the market.

More than half an hour later, Xiao Lin came to the north of the Southern Wasteland Fairy City. There was actually a small mountain range here, but these mountains were not large, and the height was only about 100 feet, covering an area of ​​about dozens of miles.

The reason why Xiao Lin came here was that he could rent a cave for cultivation, from meditation to alchemy, refining, and making talismans, it was all available.

Xiao Lin entered a three-story shop standing in front of the mountain range. Seeing Xiao Lin coming in, a clerk immediately came up to greet him.

Xiao Lin sensed it with his spiritual sense and found that the waiter was actually a cultivator of the eighth level of Qi Refining. However, at this moment, Xiao Lin did not use the Hidden Spirit Technique to hide his cultivation level, but showed his cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment stage.

Xiao Lin did this, on the one hand, to prevent the blind cultivators from secretly plotting against him, and on the other hand, because his cultivation level was low, he would not be taken seriously in the shops in the Immortal City. For the cultivators of the Foundation Establishment stage, those shops would try their best to curry favor with them, and they would like to take out all the best things in the shops.

Of course, this is also because the purchasing power of the cultivators of the Foundation Establishment stage is definitely far greater than that of the cultivators of the Qi Refining stage.

"Ah, it's you, senior. Do you want to rent a cave for cultivation, or refine elixirs, magic tools, or talismans?"

"I want to rent a cave for cultivation, so I came here to take a look."

"Then you've come to the right place. Our caves at [Bai Fu Ju] are not inferior to those of ordinary small sects. You should know that our [Bai Fu Ju] is built on a medium-sized mineral vein. Each cave is not only very safe, but also full of spiritual energy, which can definitely speed up the cultivation of cultivators."

"Oh? Then I'll give it a try." Xiao Lin smiled and followed the waiter to the counter.

An old man was sitting behind the counter, holding an abacus. When he saw Xiao Lin and the waiter coming over, he immediately said with a smile on his face: "Senior, the caves here are mainly divided into three categories, namely high-level, medium-level and low-level. These three types of caves can be seen from their locations."

As he spoke, the old man took out three animal skins from behind the counter and placed them in front of Xiao Lin. Some of the caves on these three animal skins had been painted with red pens. Needless to say, these caves have been rented out, and those that were not painted, naturally, have not been rented out yet.

"The spiritual energy in the high-level caves is the most concentrated, at least twice that of the intermediate caves. The annual cost is 100 low-grade spiritual stones, while the annual cost of the intermediate caves is 50 low-grade spiritual stones. As for the lowest low-level caves, the annual cost is only 10 low-grade spiritual stones. However, there are no vacant low-level caves. Now there are only two types: intermediate and high-level." Hearing this, Xiao Lin saw that the caves on one of the animal skins were indeed smeared with red pen. It seems that because of the large number of Qi Refining cultivators in the Immortal City, the cheap low-level caves are in short supply. After a brief thought, Xiao Lin asked, "But I wonder how safe these advanced and intermediate caves are?"

The old man smiled and replied, "Senior, you can rest assured. We have asked the formation master of the Ancient Xuan Sect to set up the [Three Yuan Soul Locking Formation] for each advanced cave. Even if it is a cultivator in the middle or late stage of foundation building, it is impossible to break the formation restriction in a short time."

"The intermediate caves are also equipped with dragon-breaking stones. It is not easy to break them. Moreover, we have several foundation-building cultivators in [Bai Fu Ju] all year round. Once there is a problem, they will appear immediately to ensure the safety of all customers."
