Global Martial Arts: I Have a World of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 142 The Chamber of Commerce decided to switch to Five Elements

Thinking of the difficulties that the Chamber of Commerce might face, Xu Xuan couldn't help but feel a hint of gloom in his heart, and his face became increasingly ugly.

He asked in a deep voice: "How will the Chamber of Commerce choose?"

He really doesn't want to confront the Thousand Machine Sect, but he also doesn't want the Qingye Chamber of Commerce to become a subsidiary force of the Thousand Machine Sect and be driven by the Thousand Machine Sect to join this war. After all, the Thousand Machine Sect is too weak compared to the Shenxiao Daozong and the situation is clear. Taking the risk to join before was really not a good option.

But no matter what, this change of situation is not what he wants at all.

Xu Xuan couldn't help but lament his own weakness. He could only go with the flow and not be able to influence the situation. The original complacency with which his strength had improved by leaps and bounds in the six months since he was transformed into Gangmai disappeared.

Hong Yue was not in a happy mood either, and he didn't know what he was thinking of, so he let out a long sigh.

He hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice:

"We, the Qingye Chamber of Commerce, have always been neutral. We really don't want to get involved in the dispute between the two Nascent Soul Sects this time, but the world is like this, and the weak sometimes have no choice at all.

At present, the Chamber of Commerce has urgently summoned the two ancestors of Jiedan who are outside to call them back. If the situation is critical, they may have to abandon the land of Fengguo, including the Yundian City. At that time, the Chamber of Commerce will inevitably have to fully relocate, and even travel long distances to go there. Domain, establish a new foundation and start over. "

If you want to maintain a neutral stance, you need strength. Facing the two Nascent Soul sects, the Qingye Chamber of Commerce cannot afford to offend anyone. Since it doesn't want to take sides, the best option is to abandon its original foundation and run away.

As the son of shopkeeper Hong Da, Hong Yue learned about the recent decision of the Chamber of Commerce's top brass, and he told Xu Xuan without any concealment at this time.

Xu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. If the Qingye Chamber of Commerce insisted on joining one side, as a guest minister, he would not be able to escape. Even if he did not have to be forced to fight with others, he would still have to help make the talisman. What, this Yunding City, which is hostile to any sect and is located at the junction of the two sides, is really difficult to bring much sense of security even if it is protected by a fourth-order formation.

"You can keep the green hills without fear of running out of firewood. Don't worry, Brother Hong. What I am pursuing is a stable environment. If the Chamber of Commerce leaves the Shenxiao Territory, I am willing to follow them."

Xu Xuan understood what Hong Yue meant. If the Qingye Chamber of Commerce really chooses to give up this piece of business and develop in other areas, it will definitely have to communicate with all the guests.

The spiritual contracts signed by some guest ministers are more stringent, and the caravan must go wherever it goes. However, there are guest ministers like Xu Xuan, who sign more flexible spiritual contracts. When encountering the current situation, all you need to do is give up. If you pay a price, you can be free again.

Xu Xuan was doing well in the Qingye Chamber of Commerce. He was very satisfied with his current life, and at the same time he did not want to get involved in the war between the two Nascent Soul Sects, so he decided to run away with the Chamber of Commerce without thinking about it.

This decision of the Chamber of Commerce can be said to be very consistent with his choice. For him, as long as he leaves this disputed place, it makes no difference whether it is the Shenxiao Domain or other domains.

Hong Yue was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "Brother Xu can think so, that's really great. Don't worry, if you really get to that point, when you leave, your acquaintances can follow the Chamber of Commerce as long as they are willing. But for now The matter has not been finalized yet, so don’t make any noise, and don’t rush to spread the word. After all, the Chamber of Commerce doesn’t want to give up this great foundation unless it is absolutely necessary.”

"I know this." Xu Xuan nodded and said, "I would also like to thank Brother Hong for informing me in advance."

Hong Yue waved his hand and said, "It's between you and me, so there's no need to be polite."

He originally had doubts about the relationship between Xu Xuan and Jiang Yan, but now that he has said it, he feels much calmer.

The two chatted casually for a while. Hong Yue saw that Xu Xuan was not in a very happy mood after hearing the news about Qianji Sect, so he said goodbye with a wink.

Xu Xuan sent Hong Yue out, sealed the formation, summoned the clone first, and gave a series of instructions to him to clean the mansion and take care of the spiritual plants in the medicine garden, while he plunged into the training room.

After this period of idleness, the spiritual energy in the training room had already overflowed. He showed his Gang Veins and swallowed up all the spiritual energy.

This was Xu Xuan's first formal practice after taking Longhu Ruyi Pill, and he felt something different from before.

Whether it is the swallowing of spiritual energy or the refining of spiritual energy, the efficiency is higher than before.

Obviously, these changes all come from the effect of the Dragon Tiger Ruyi Pill in cleansing the menstruation and cutting the marrow. As for whether it will improve subsequent orifices, he will not know until he has perfected the current No. 40 three orifices.

After practicing, Xu Xuanjing worked hard for a whole day to make the talisman. After gathering enough for the Chamber of Commerce tasks during this period, he began to figure out his next plan.

'The "Five Elements True Evil Secret Code" must be redeemed, in case other changes occur...'

Taking into account the unexpected factors, Xu Xuan felt that it was better to do this sooner rather than later, especially since he had now received the news about the whereabouts of the Five Elements Zhensha, he did not want to miss this technique.

He calculated the contribution he had accumulated over the past six months and found that it was more than enough to exchange for a technique to conceal his true purpose, so he made a decision immediately.

Seeing that it was already getting late, he was not in a hurry to redeem it. Instead, he went out to collect the duplicate body after finishing the work, and then returned to the bedroom to start practicing meditation.

The next day, early in the morning.

Xu Xuan went out and headed towards the main halls in the core area.

He first handed in the talisman, and then came to the Kung Fu Hall.

The person in charge of the Kung Fu Hall is still the old cultivator Li Qian. He is lying on a bench with sleepy eyes, looking like he has neglected his duties.

But Xu Xuan did not dare to look down upon him at all. Before entering the door, he raised his hands and shouted: "Mr. Li, I'm here to redeem the skills."

"It's you." Li Qian opened his eyes and squinted for a moment. He recognized Xu Xuan and didn't get up. He just hit a magic formula and opened the entry portal. He waved and said, "Go ahead and make your choice." Use your token to try to take out the jade slip you want. You will have one chance to redeem it. You can choose any method. If there are others to choose from after choosing, you can naturally take it out if you have contributed enough. "

Xu Xuan nodded and entered the light door. He was still in the attic space. He pretended to select at first, and finally took out the "Five Elements Gangsha Secret Book" and another "Black Water True Method".

This "Black Water True Technique" is still the sect-suppressing technique of the Black Water Sect in this country, but since the Qingye Chamber of Commerce dares to openly display it for exchange and gives an introduction to the subsequent Nascent Soul Stage techniques, it can be seen from this The relationship between the two sects may not be as simple as outsiders imagine.

In the eyes of ordinary monks, the Aoba Chamber of Commerce and the Blackwater Sect carve up Fengguo and unite with each other to deal with the outside world, but they often have conflicts, showing an attitude of opposition and disharmony.

Xu Xuan originally thought so too, but now he feels that these two forces are more likely to cooperate with each other in a tacit understanding.

However, he was too lazy to delve into the secrets. The "Black Water True Technique" he exchanged was itself an extremely powerful technique. It centered on condensing the "Black Water" magic power and continued to advance. , there are related secret techniques that can be learned, and there are even special methods for refining magic weapons after forming the elixir. The most important thing is that this method also has the effect of slightly improving the water attribute spiritual root qualifications during the cultivation process.

Xu Xuan himself practiced Shui Yuan Gong, so it was reasonable to use this skill as a cover for the "Five Elements Gangsha Secret Code".

He took these two skills with him out of the door and handed them over to Li Qian for review.

During his years in the Gongfa Hall, Li Qian had seen too many people redeem the "Five Elements Gangsha Secret Code". Seeing Xu Xuan doing the same thing, he didn't think much about it. After all, it contained the secret method of condensing various gangshas. Both are very practical.What's more, Xu Xuan also redeemed the "Black Water True Dharma", so he naturally regarded Xu Xuan as one of the monks who only wanted to condense the method of Gang Sha.

Xu Xuan didn't bother to explain anything. After giving the exercises he exchanged to Li Qian for notes, he took the two exercises and walked out of the hall without any setbacks.

All the way out of the core area, he went straight to Dongyang.

Dongyang has matured a lot since Lao Dao left.

Although he still has a tendency to be afraid of society, he has been trying to overcome it on weekdays and has become much braver. When he opened the cave formation and saw Xu Xuan, Dongyang showed surprise and quickly saluted respectfully: "Uncle Xu, you are back."

His tone was full of respect and intimacy. In the more than half a year after his father left, Xu Xuan did not have a laissez-faire attitude towards him. Instead, he often came to see him, guided him in his cultivation, cared about his life, and even gave him some money. some help.

People's hearts are made of flesh, so Dongyang can certainly feel Xu Xuan's sincerity. As they get along with each other, he gradually treats Xu Xuan as a real elder.

Xu Xuan nodded with satisfaction and lifted Dongyang up with a burst of magic power.

Since he has been entrusted by the old Taoist, he will naturally take some responsibility for Dongyang. After all, he is not the kind of indifferent character.

"It seems that you haven't slacked off in your practice recently, which is good."

He first sensed Dongyang's cultivation level, and saw that the aura on the other person's body seemed to have just broken through to the third level of Qi training, so he couldn't help but praise him.

Dongyang scratched his head, with a happy smile on his face.

"Go in and talk."

Xu Xuan greeted him, walked into the courtyard, and went to the living room with Dongyang. After sitting down, he asked about the other party's recent progress in alchemy as usual.

Dongyang inherited the craftsmanship of the old Taoist, and was very talented in alchemy, even more talented than the old Taoist.

Considering that higher-level elixirs are too rare, alchemists are extremely rare, and it would be a waste of energy and time to study distractedly, Xu Xuan still hopes to cultivate Dongyang. If third-level, fourth-level or even higher-level elixirs are needed in the future, Higher-level elixirs can also be refined by the other party.

After more than half a year of getting along and secretly observing Dongyang, he was very satisfied with Dongyang in all aspects. The most important thing was that he felt that the other person was someone worthy of his trust in the future.

Dongyang faced Xu Xuan's inquiry and answered truthfully about his study progress.

Although Xu Xuan has not studied alchemy in depth, and has never even opened a furnace, after all, he has seen the inheritance of the old Tao, coupled with his vision of strength and some experience in making talismans, he can still discuss alchemy with the current Dongyang. Second, and in some aspects, some pointers can be given by analogy.

After the two discussed alchemy, Xu Xuan changed the subject and said, "You must have heard about the expansion of Thousand Machine Sect recently, right?"

He deliberately walked around the market area today, and most of the discussions he heard were about the Qianji Sect.

Most of the casual cultivators are also worried and discussing whether to leave early and go to a farther country to avoid coming back when the situation becomes clearer.

After all, Fengguo and Yuanguo are at the border, and the current situation is obviously not a good thing.

Although Dongyang said that the society is afraid of death, it still has to go out to buy daily necessities, and it also needs to buy alchemy materials. These days, I have heard some related topics.

When Xu Xuan asked about it, he nodded and said, "I heard about it. I wonder what Uncle Xu has to say?"

He is also a smart man and knows that Xu Xuan, as a guest of the Qingye Chamber of Commerce, knows a lot of inside information. Since he mentioned this matter, he must have given relevant instructions.

"Bring the cave rental spirit contract with you and come with me." Xu Xuan said, and continued: "The situation is more complicated now. Although this Yundian City is good, it is within the expansion range of the Thousand Machines Sect. , and we should bear the brunt of it, so we still need to prepare early."

He remembered that the old man had renewed the lease of this cave for 30 years, which seemed to be too long now. This was a large sum of spiritual stones, so it was better to return it first, otherwise it would be too late to return it if he had to move out.

Needless to say, Dongyang understood instantly, his expression became solemn, and he said: "I always keep the spiritual contract with me."

"Let's go then."

Xu Xuan stood up and left without saying a word, followed by Dongyang.

Next, he came forward and successfully extended the period by one year and returned all the spirit stones.

After finishing the work, Xu Xuan explained a few more words to Dongyang before letting him leave.

Dongyang has a strict mouth and has few friends due to his personality. He is not worried that the other party will gossip. It doesn't matter if he reveals some information in advance.

As for Hua Lingshuang, Xu Xuan was not prepared to remind him that the Hua family not only had a lot of talkative people, but also had some properties in the market outside Yundian City, so they might not be willing to leave like this.

If the Aoba Chamber of Commerce really decides to evacuate, we can just notify them at that time.

Xu Xuan watched Dongyang leave, then returned to his cave, entered the practice room, and took out the two exchanged techniques.

He just read "Black Water True Technique" a few times and memorized its contents. Some of the subtle uses of water elemental power in this technique are still very useful for reference.

After fully remembering it, Xu Xuan crushed the jade slip.

The jade slips in this Gongfa Palace have special restrictions. After reading them a certain number of times, the contents will be arranged randomly and large sections will be missing at random. Generally, this is to prevent the carrier from being taken away if something happens to him.

Xu Xuan then picked up the jade slip that recorded the "Secret Code of Five Elements Gangsha", released his spiritual consciousness, and began to study it carefully.

There is a certain threshold for getting started with this skill. All the five elements' spiritual roots must reach the lowest level, and the more balanced it is, the more stable the magic power will be and the more smoothly it will function.

In addition, monks with five elements bodies are actually the best candidates for practicing this technique.
