Longevity, starting from raising chickens

Chapter 238 The Spirit Food Controversy
"Need to leave the sect?"

Wang Ba couldn't help frowning.

In the past six months, the three sects did not feel sorry for him, on the contrary, the monks of the three sects they met, even Jindan Daoist, treated him with courtesy.

Although he may not think so in his heart, but at least on the surface, in Yong'an City, Wang Ba's status is not inferior to Jindan Daoist.

Xu Lizong is no different among them.

It's just that Wang Tang would come over from time to time, lobbying Wang Ba to secretly join the Xuli sect.

Wang Ba also fooled around at will.

Even so, the other party didn't seem to care.

So when Wang Ba saw Wen Yong's voice transmission, he felt at a loss.

But Wen Yong didn't say much in the sound transmission talisman, he just mentioned two more words.

Spirit food.

"Spirit food..."

Wang Ba's eyes showed some thought, and then he seemed to think of something.

However, he was not in a hurry to verify, but thoughtfully made a breakfast himself and brought it to the bed.

Buchan blushed with shame.

Although he can be regarded as an old couple, but Bu Chan is still the same as 20 years ago in front of him.

After tidying up, he fed the spirit beasts again. Seeing the piles of food like small hills being quickly wiped out by these spirit beasts, Wang Ba felt relieved despite his pain.

Then he opened a corner of the formation and walked out.

"Master Shen!"

"Master Shen came out!"

"Master Shen, can you give me a chance to enter the clothing singing club next time?"

As soon as Wang Ba walked out, he heard the surprised voices of the monks.

Looking around, he saw that the street in front of him was already full of people.

Wangzi in front of the shops on the opposite side has been cast with a small spell and is fluttering in the wind.

And some casual cultivators who had seen Wang Ba before were looking at him with surprise on their faces.

Being watched by so many people, Wang Ba suddenly felt awkward, but soon got used to it.

This happens almost every time it comes out.

However, no one dared to get too close to him, because there were still a few monks from the three major sects guarding the door.

These people all have mid-stage foundation-establishment cultivation bases, although they are not as good as Wen Yong, but together, it is difficult for ordinary late-stage foundation-establishment monks to match.

Although the relationship between Zongmen monks and casual cultivators seems to have eased a lot recently, the casual cultivators still couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed in the face of these people.

Wang Ba didn't deliberately get too close to these casual cultivators.

If this is really the case, the three sects probably should have an idea.

Smiling and nodding, he walked away from his mansion immediately.

The monks of the three sects guarding the mansion immediately parted out, followed closely behind Wang Ba, and protected Wang Ba at any time.

Of course, Wang Ba also knew in his heart that it was not so much protection as surveillance.

This is what it should mean, so Wang Ba doesn't care.

And walking along the way, although he tried his best to avoid too many contacts with the casual practitioners, wherever Wang Ba went, he still attracted the attention of many casual practitioners.

It's different from half a year ago.

Due to the exposure of Wang Ba's identity and the courtesy he received, and the Shanli Singing Clothes Association was also transferred to Yong'an City, including the three major ongoing operations of Yong'an City.

In the past six months, it has attracted many casual cultivators from Yan Kingdom to settle here.

Yong'an City, which was originally small, quickly became crowded.

The three major companies also made a lot of money by sitting on the ground and collecting rent fees, as well as pumping water from various transactions.

Wang Ba is often puzzled, the success of Yong'an City proves that the three sects are not without talents, but why didn't they do this before?

On the contrary, it suppresses casual cultivators everywhere.

It's kind of like killing one thousand enemies and hurting yourself two or three hundred. Anyway, it means not giving casual cultivators a chance to rise.

If a city like Yong'an City is built as soon as possible, and the development of the three major businesses may be improved by collecting land money and pumping water.

Of course, there may be things he doesn't know about.

Without thinking too much, he cast a spell on his face, and his face suddenly became blurred.

Soon, he stopped in front of a spiritual food shop.

The location of the shop is good, it is at the intersection of two streets, and the flow of people is the largest.

However, the strange thing is that compared to the overcrowding of other adjacent shops, there are no birds in front of this shop.

Wang Ba glanced at the signboard and Wangzi outside the shop.

'Shouliling Rice Shop'.

He couldn't help showing surprise in his eyes.

"Strange, why are there so few people entering the store... Isn't Lingmipu the pillar industry of Xulizong?"

Each of the four major sects of Yan State has its own industry.

For example, Zhenling Palace, because of its strongest strength, has Yuanying sitting in the town, monopolizing [-]% of the Lingshi mine in the entire Yan Kingdom, as well as many other spirit mines and medicine fields.

On the basis of so many resources, the craftsmen and alchemists in Zhenling Palace can get a lot of practice opportunities.

The quality of the magic tools and pills it refines is naturally far better than the other three sects.

Therefore, it was able to be exported to neighboring countries, and the resources obtained were fed back to Zhenling Palace again.

The strength of the monks in Zhenling Palace has increased, and they have expanded again, eroding the resources of the other three sects.

The obtained resources are in turn re-invested in the expansion and upgrading of the industry.

This creates a positive cycle.

It can be said that almost all the most profitable industries in Yan's country are controlled by Zhenling Palace.

If this trend continues, at most 100 years, Zhenling Palace will be able to complete the annexation of the other three sects, thus monopolizing the territory of a country.

This is also the fundamental reason why the three sects were so impatient after they realized that Zhang Daobai of Zhenling Palace might be dying.

Not to mention these.

As one of the three sects, the Xuli Sect is not like the Danlong Sect, which has excellent cinnabar spiritual mines and various spiritual plants that can be used to make talismans, nor is it like Huifeng Valley, which is not suitable for making some one-time consumption methods. have extensive experience.

What Xulizong relies on is farming.

Due to the numerous spiritual veins and spiritual fields under their jurisdiction, they have raised a lot of spiritual planters who specialize in cultivating various spiritual plants.

Among them, Lingmi, as the most widely used spiritual plant, has gradually become the mainstay of Xulizong's income.

Every year, there are many monks who can't afford the elixir and can only rely on Lingmi as their practice resources. They barely maintain it and contribute their last strength to the rise of Xulizong.

Later, in order to expand the audience level of Lingmi, Xu Lizong also deliberately spent a large amount of Lingshi, and obtained the inheritance of refining Lingzhi essence from a spirit chef who was good at handling Lingzhi in the Great Chu Dynasty.

They condense a large amount of Lingmi to make spirit rice essence, and then sell it to the outside world, taking the high-quality route, which is the same as spirit chicken essence.

Of course, Wang Ba's spiritual chicken essence actually appeared much later than the spiritual rice essence.

This move has indeed brought great benefits to Xu Lizong.

Xulizong, who was originally very common among the three sects, also relied on this to gradually turn around. Until the emergence of Tianmen Sect, Xulizong boldly opened a market, refined 'human bags', and secretly caught loose cultivators and sold them to Tianmen religion.

After nearly 70 to [-] years of development, it is now the most powerful leader of the three majors.

All this, Wang Ba learned from Wen Yong.

As a descendant of Daoist Jindan, I have to say that Wen Yong really knows a lot more than ordinary monks.

And according to Zhao Feng's words, Xu Lizong also seized his opportunity to become a dragon and jumped up.

It was just because he knew these things that Wang Ba felt even more incredible.

Lingmi is the basic plate of Xulizong, but now almost no one enters the store to buy it. How serious is this?
And just when Wang Yan was frowning, he suddenly heard a noise from the Lingmi shop:

"Ten catties of second-order purple flower spiritual rice cost seven middle-grade spiritual stones, is that a money grab?"

"Hey, there is Lingmi Essence for sale here... A pot of first-order Lingmi Essence costs 30 yuan of middle-grade Lingshi?! Who can afford it?"

"Heh... why don't you buy it if you can't afford it? Who cares! I might as well save up some spirit stones, and wait for a chance to grab a bottle of spirit chicken essence! It's not much more expensive, and the effect is much better than spirit rice!"

"What's the matter? You still want to hit someone? I'm so scared!"

While speaking, the monk opened the door cursingly and walked out of the room.

The more I thought about it, the angrier I became, and I couldn't help turning around to scold, but then I noticed the word 'Xu Li' written on the signboard at the door, my pupils shrank suddenly, and cold sweat dripped down my face.

Immediately, without daring to fart, he turned his head and slipped into the crowd.

Seeing this scene, Wang Ba was slightly silent, and suddenly understood what Wen Yong meant.

Obviously, the spirit chicken essence sold by the Singing Clothes Club has already faintly affected Xulizong's spirit food business.

Unlike mortals who cannot live without food, with the presence of spiritual veins and the Bigu Pill, monks in the Qi Refining Realm can survive without food.

Therefore, they can reduce the purchase of Lingmi, accumulate Lingshi, and compete for the essence of Lingji when the clothing singing session is held.

Of course, most of the ordinary casual cultivators do not have the financial resources, but then again, there are probably not many qi cultivators who can afford Xuli Zongling rice among the casual cultivators.

It can only be said that there is still a large degree of overlap between the two in terms of target groups.

"It seems that it's time to properly reduce the output of the first-order spirit chicken essence..."

After thinking for a while, Wang Ba secretly made a decision in his heart.

In the past six months, he has devoted himself to refining the spirit chicken essence, which is not only used to supply the singing clothing club, but also to show his ability to the three sects.

Indirectly consolidate their position.

Therefore, the spirit chicken essence released is not small.

And if a bottle of spirit chicken essence is saved, it is enough for a Qi refining monk to use it for several years.

There are many monks who collect spirit stones to buy.

Coupled with the fact that some monks have accumulated spirit stones to wait and see, I am afraid that Xulizong's spirit rice shop is really uncomfortable recently.

It doesn't matter if the time is short, but after a long time, if the source of income is cut off, I am afraid Xu Lizong will find a way to deal with himself even if he has no idea at first.

Fortunately, he realized this under Wen Yong's reminder.

Wang Ba didn't feel regretful either:
"It's just right, it's time to bring the energy back to my own practice."

Now he has achieved part of his goal as he wished.

Reluctantly established his position in Yong'an City, whether it is a casual cultivator or a sect cultivator, not to mention the scope of Yan Kingdom, at least within the scope of Baiyunping and the three sects, almost everyone knows it.

In a short period of time, there is no need to worry about safety issues.

And as the Singing Club grows, dividends can also bring him a steady stream of income, as long as he guarantees a monthly supply of spirit chicken essence, it will be enough.

Leave the rest to Wen Yong to worry about.

Then he turned around again.

I want to see if there is any spiritual material I need.

Not only the materials for A[-]'s bloodline breakthrough, but also the Monkey King Wu, who recently took the time to think about it and came up with a prescription.

It's just that he doesn't know enough about the third-order materials, and many of them are imaginary, and he can't guarantee that this prescription will be effective for Wu Yuanwang.

But it's always going to be trial and error to know the results.

But it is a pity that almost all the stalls and shops in Yong'an City sell Tier [-] and Tier [-] treasures. Once it comes to Tier [-], there is nothing. It seems that someone is deliberately controlling it, and who is controlling it? You don't have to guess.

In comparison, it is not as good as Linglong Ghost City.

"After all, the opening day of the second floor of Linglong Ghost City is coming soon."

"Fellow Daoist Tang Ji should be back, and senior brother..."

Wang Ba pondered for a while.

Although he was a little disappointed that he could not buy the third-level spiritual material, he returned to the mansion by himself and began to concentrate on his cultivation.

But not long after entering the meditation, he suddenly heard a Hong Mai voice from outside the formation:

"Xiaoyou Shen, open the door quickly, the old man brought you what you asked for!"

Hearing this voice, Wang Ba's eyes lit up when he was practicing.
