Chapter 511 Preparation (2) (Please subscribe, please collect)
"The rental prices of caves of different levels are naturally very different. In addition, if the lease period of Daoist friends exceeds ten years, a discount can be given." This male cultivator in the early stage of foundation building has obviously served here for a long time. He is also quite familiar with the situation in front of him. He quickly introduced it in an orderly manner. "Qingxiao Market is affiliated with Qingxiao Sect. The caves here have three major levels and nine minor levels, which can correspond to all Daoists from the early stage of Qi training to the late stage of Jindan. This is the introduction of each level of caves. Please take a look." After the cultivator made a simple basic introduction, he handed over a jade slip and stopped talking, waiting for his final decision. The first-level cave is mainly for cultivators in the Qi training stage. It can emit spiritual power equivalent to three different levels of spiritual veins of the first level, upper, middle and lower grades. The price is also quite low. Of course, the number is also the largest. Perhaps it is a bit exaggerated to call it a cave. To be precise, it should be a small stone house. The second-level cave is for the cultivators in the foundation-building period. The cave usually has a large reception room and two stone chambers for retreat. The spiritual power emitted is naturally the spiritual power emitted by the three levels of the second-level upper, middle and lower spiritual veins.
With Sun Mingsheng's ninth-level foundation-building cultivation, there is no doubt that he can rent a second-level upper-grade cave, and the price of the cave itself is not too high, but the spiritual power in the second-level upper-grade cave is slightly inferior to his needs.
"Excuse me, fellow Taoist, can I rent a third-level lower-grade cave with my cultivation?"
This is Sun Mingsheng's real purpose. If he can't rent it here, he can only leave this place and choose another relatively safe market to rent a second-level upper-grade cave for retreat and cultivation.
"Daoyou are planning to rent a third-level lower-quality cave? The price of a third-level cave is quite expensive, and there is no discount no matter how long the lease is."
The cultivator in the early stage of foundation building showed a curious look. Of course, every cultivator has his own secrets, so he will not ask the truth. Based on his experience, he also has some guesses.
Although the cave rental manager cannot make a clear judgment on Sun Mingsheng's cultivation, his aura like a mountain abyss cannot be concealed.
This manager who specializes in cave rental is not outstanding in strength, but he is knowledgeable. The only explanation for renting a high-quality cave with a slightly inferior cultivation strength is that his own cultivation is already at a critical point, and he is just planning for the promotion of his cultivation in the future.
Based on this foundation, he naturally does not mind earning a little extra income for himself, such as canceling the discount that should have existed.
"There is no problem with the spirit stones and discounts. I just want to rent a cave house, that's all."
Sun Mingsheng may not know the tricks, but the most important thing at this time is to rent a third-level lower-grade cave house, so as to avoid more trouble.
"Since fellow Daoist agrees, there is naturally no problem in renting a third-level lower-grade cave house. At present, there is only one third-level lower-grade cave house vacant in the entire market. The annual rental fee is 10,000 lower-grade spirit stones, and the rental starts from three years."
After successfully achieving his goal, this cultivator in the early stage of foundation building will naturally not continue to dawdle. This opportunity to earn spirit stones in an open and aboveboard manner is also rare for him. If there is a Jindan-stage cultivator who rents it temporarily, he will naturally not be given such an opportunity.
"I need to rent it for 30 years. There are 300,000 spirit stones in this storage bag."
The price of the third-level lower-grade cave house is indeed a little beyond expectations, but after selling all the spirit objects in the storage bag, there is no problem in paying the rental fee of the cave house.
"This is a special token for the cave. Daoist friends only need to activate it with mana. There is a third-level lower-grade formation outside the cave as a protection. As long as it is within the rental period, there will be no disturbance from others."
A quarter of an hour later, under the guidance of the jade token, Sun Mingsheng finally appeared outside the cave that was rented at a high price along the winding underground passage.
"Open"
With the input of mana, a strong spiritual light was ejected from the jade token, and a cave entrance with a height of about one person suddenly appeared on a layer of water-blue light cover.
Entering it, the first thing you feel is the strong spiritual power here. Because no cultivators have rented it for a long time, it has almost turned into a thick white gas visible to the naked eye, and it has no resistance to the refining from the cultivators. It can be directly integrated into the meridians by running the Great Circulation.
In addition to a reception room, the entire cave also has a special rest room, retreat room, spirit beast room, utility room, and even a small piece of spiritual field outside the cave that can be cultivated. In short, it has everything you need and excellent conditions.
"The rich spiritual power here can also be used to assist in condensing the golden elixir, and the valuable spiritual stones have not been wasted in vain."
After a simple observation of the surroundings, Sun Mingsheng was quite satisfied with the overall environment here.
It's just that condensing the golden elixir involves all the secrets of one's own practice. In order to prevent accidents, a set of formations that can conceal the breath and prevent others from spying are specially arranged in the cave, which are also purchased at a high price for this retreat.
"Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing. Whether hundreds of years of practice can continue to move forward depends on this day."
Although Sun Mingsheng has a firm belief in impacting the golden elixir, some complicated thoughts in his mind always flash like shooting stars when the time comes.
In fact, this is human nature. Although practitioners have a firm and unshakable determination, when faced with the promotion of a new cultivation realm, some negative thoughts will inevitably arise.
Of course, given his character, these so-called negative effects would not last long. A quarter of an hour later, Sun Mingsheng was already sitting cross-legged in a special retreat room in the cave and began to adjust his breath.
After arriving from Song State to Shen State, it didn't seem like a long time, but most of the time was spent in a relatively busy state.
In the battle with the monks of the Qingxiao Sect on the extreme northern ice sheet, the final victory relied entirely on the power of the spiritual talisman. Under the desperate counterattack of the opponent, the wound on the abdomen was only barely healed.
Therefore, Sun Mingsheng's energy and spirit have never been at a relatively peak state. Before he officially starts to try to condense the golden elixir, he must solve all of them. As the saying goes, sharpening the knife will not waste time cutting firewood.
In addition, due to repeated battles, the mana in the Dantian is also in a relatively weak state, and it must be consolidated patiently.
In short, his current state is not enough to try to condense the golden elixir. The most important task at this time is to adjust his own cultivation state.
Strictly follow the requirements of the inherited skill "Fire Fire Soul Control Art" and run the Great Zhoutian in circles, refining all the spiritual power around the body into the Dantian, filling it up bit by bit.
