Myriad Beast Immortal

Chapter 1 Shen Long
Donghua Xiuxian Realm, Qin State.

The Qianzhu Mountains are located at the junction of Qingzhou and Jingzhou, stretching for tens of thousands of miles. There are a large number of Qingyun bamboos growing here, hence the name.

In the southwest of the Qianzhu Mountain Range, there is a valley surrounded by mountains on three sides. Outside the valley stands a blue stone tablet more than ten feet high, with three golden characters "Qianzhu Valley" written on it.

There was a noise in the valley, the streets in the valley were spacious and clean, and there were many shops, and a large number of monks could be seen walking around.

There was a Tier [-] demon beast, Qingfengwolf, in the Qianzhu Mountains, which killed many monks. Later, the real Qingmang from the Imperial Spirit Sect took action, and finally solved this monster.

The three families of Chen, Han, and Li jointly manage the Thousand Bamboo Valley. There are foundation-building cultivators sitting in the town all year round, with a wide range of operations, and many casual cultivators make a living here.

Fang City is built on the mountain, a steep peak, at the foot of the mountain stands a five-foot-high blue stone tablet, engraved with the three characters "Qianzhufeng" on it, there are many buildings on the mountain, this is a residential area, for Cultivators provide accommodation.

There are many buildings in Qianzhu Peak, including simple stone houses, gorgeous palaces, and single-family blue attics. These buildings extend from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, there is a two-foot-large blue stone house. The stone house is made of some blue boulders, the gaps are filled with shells, and the door is closed.

Inside the stone house is a blue stone bed that is about ten feet long. In the corner is a blue magic circle. There are five grooves of the same size on the magic circle. There is a gray-white spirit stone in each groove. It seems that there is something inside the spirit stone. The aura is almost exhausted.

A tall and straight young man in blue shirt was sitting cross-legged on the stone bed. The young man in blue shirt had a face like a crown jade, with a straight nose and slightly closed eyes. On the young man, it poured into his mouth and nose.

After a while, the blue-shirted youth opened his eyes, which faintly shot out a bright light.

"Finally reached the fifth level of Qi refining."

The young man in blue shirt said to himself, his face was full of joy.

The young man in the blue shirt is called Shen Long. His parents are casual cultivators who make a living by hunting monsters.

When he was ten years old, Shen Long's parents went out with friends to hunt for treasures. Before leaving, they left most of their belongings to Shen Long and told him not to leave Fangshi privately.

It has been seven years since my parents left and never returned.

The property left by his parents is not much, Shen Long knows very well that no matter how much he saves, it will be spent sooner or later, he wants to find a job, but he is too young, the store doesn't want him, and some people even want to trick him to leave the market.

His parents often visit Qiaobingtang, a shop that sells magical artifacts and helps repair them.

Sun Huowang, the treasurer of Qiaobingtang, thought that he was pitiful, so he hired Shen Long as a helper, and helped Shen Long through the most difficult period with two spirit stones a month.

Seven years have passed, and Shen Long's parents have not returned, and his life and death are uncertain.

Shen Long devotes himself to cultivation, and if he wants to find his parents, he must first be strong enough.

He works five hours a day in Qiaobingtang, five hours are used for cultivation, one hour is used for practicing spells, and one hour is for finding something to do, such as being a guide for foreign monks, or wandering in the square where casual cultivators set up stalls , Listening to the stall owner's experience of hunting monsters or anecdotes about the world of cultivating immortals, if you are lucky, you can buy better refining materials at a low price and sell them for a small profit.

Sun Huowang taught Shen Long how to identify refining materials. He introduced everything from the characteristics of the materials to the purchase price. Shen Long studied hard and was familiar with the characteristics and purchase prices of various first-level refining materials. He was diligent in his work.

Shen Long didn't want to be a waiter in the shop all his life, and he could barely survive with two spirit stones a month. He set aside an hour every day to practice spells. In five years, he practiced two first-level spells to Dzogchen, and then quit his job , Team up with other casual cultivators to hunt monsters and earn immortal cultivation resources.

Spells are easy to learn but difficult to master. Spells are divided into four stages: entry, small success, great success, and great perfection.

When casting a spell, the immortal cultivator has to recite the mantra silently, and it takes a certain amount of time to release the spell. It doesn't take long to get started. If you want to practice a first-level spell to the Dzogchen, it takes at least a year and a half, and at most ten years. It depends on the person.

Some monks are very talented in practicing spells. They can cultivate a first-level spell to Dzogchen within a year. They can cast spells instantly, and their power will also increase a lot. Unable to cultivate a first-level spell to Dzogchen, they can buy magic tools or talismans to save time and effort.

The magic weapon of Qiaobingtang is of good quality and the price is fair. There are a group of repeat customers who make a living by hunting monsters and beasts.

Shen Long took advantage of his position to observe the character of these casual cultivators. Some casual cultivators were fussy, some casual cultivators liked petty gain, and some casual cultivators were greedy for money and sex.

He has a good relationship with a powerful Qi-refining monk. This person is the captain of a monster hunting team. The hunting team has a great risk when going out to hunt monsters. Downsizing is a very common thing. If you are unlucky , Annihilation is also possible.

Two years ago, when this monster hunting team returned from a certain trip, four Qi-refining monks died. When Shen Long heard the news, he recommended himself.

He was at the fourth level of Qi Refining at that time, and by virtue of his Dzogchen fireball technique and his familiarity with the purchase price of first-level refining materials, he successfully joined this monster hunting team.

The cave he is renting now is the cheapest cave in Fang City, with five spiritual stones a year, only one soundproof array, and the spiritual energy is not abundant.

He has 24 spirit stones a year in Qiaobingtang. After deducting the rent, he still has 19 yuan of spirit stones. He buys the cheapest Jinzhu Lingmi to barely make ends meet. A bottle of Qi Refining Powder costs ten spirit stones. A little Yangqi Dan costs 20 yuan a bottle of Lingshi.

In the second year of working, Sun Huowang gave him a salary increase, three spirit stones a month. Before resigning, he had four spirit stones a month. After deducting the rent and the cost of purchasing spirit rice, after one year, the spirit stones he saved It is only enough to buy a bottle of Qi Yang Pill. As the cultivation level increases, the more cultivation resources are needed. In the long run, he must resign.

Four spirit stones a month is considered a high salary in Fangshi. It is impossible for Sun Huowang to raise his salary again, which is why Shen Long resigned.

He also had the idea of ​​learning how to refine weapons, but Sun Huowang didn't teach him how to refine weapons at all. It was too difficult to find out by himself. A piece of refining materials needed dozens of spirit stones. He worked in Qiaobingtang for a year, saving money on food and expenses You can only buy one set of materials, and if you fail once, it will be nothing for a year, let alone buy refining furnaces and refining books.

According to Sun Huowang, he failed four times in his first refining before he succeeded.

Shen Long calculated the accounts, he lived frugally for ten years, he can buy a low-grade refining furnace and a refining book, and get together four refining materials, it's good to succeed once, if all fail, ten years will be nothing , this is still on the premise of not buying pills.

He quickly dismissed this idea. For a bottom like him, the cost of trial and error is too high. He can't afford to lose. It's better to hunt monsters.

As far as he knows, the new generations of Chen, Han, and Li's three immortal cultivating families can receive a sum of immortal cultivating resources every month without doing anything, concentrate on cultivating, and then come out to do things. Work on your own.
