Chapter 286 Ghost Car [asking for monthly tickets, subscribing]
Just as Xia Daoming was counting with disdain, the disciples of Changhe Sect, Black Evil Hall and Seven Killing Sect who were guarding the Elders' Soul Hall ran out of the hall in panic one after another, and soon a commotion and panic arose in the sect.
Then, very quickly, several groups of disciples, led by Elder Jindan, left the mountain gate and headed towards Jiujiao River.
The loss of an early Jindan cultivator may not be a big deal for a big force like Xuantian Pavilion, but it is definitely a huge loss for a force like Changhe Sect.
Because of forces like the Changhe Sect, the entire sect has only more than thirty Jindan cultivators in total.
In order to train a Jindan elder, the sect spent a huge amount of money.
Every Jindan elder is a unique figure for this kind of force.
Xia Daoming naturally didn't know that the three major sects had urgently mobilized people to rush to Jiujiao River to investigate the death of the Jindan Elder.
A few days later, he returned to his cave residence on Chiyan Peak.
The cave on Chiyan Peak is no longer what it used to be.
Although there are not many disciples, they plant precious medicinal herbs everywhere.
The mountain is filled with rich spiritual energy, with purple mist rising and medicinal fragrance wafting in the air. There are also many powerful forbidden formations arranged. Overall, the Chiyan Peak cave is not only comparable to the cave of the Jindan elder of the Qingyuan Sect, but also ranks high among the caves of the Jindan elders.
"I've met the Peak Master!"
"I've met senior brother."
Xia Daoming gracefully dismounted the Golden Winged Peng and let it soar over the mountains. He then walked leisurely along the mountain road towards his mansion. Along the way, disciples from the Red Flame Peak would greet him from time to time.
Those who call him Peak Master are generally disciples who came to him later or were transferred from Tenglong Mansion in Mangzhou.
Those who call him senior brother are all old acquaintances.
Among them was Meng Manyun, who had taken good care of Lan Xue back then.
Meng Manyun's talent for cultivation is average, but he is very talented in cultivating spiritual herbs.
With Xia Daoming's training, she went from being a cultivator with no hope of achieving perfection in Qi Refining to now being a cultivator in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment in just a few decades.
Therefore, Meng Manyun was very grateful to Xia Daoming, and became more and more interested in cultivating spiritual medicines, devoting almost all of his attention to it.
Seeing that Meng Manyun had a talent for growing spiritual herbs and was interested in it, Xia Daoming saw that she was a loyal and honest person, so there was no need to worry about her being corrupt, so he put her in charge of the spiritual herb garden.
"Junior Sister Meng, have Qiao Lian and the others returned?" Xia Daoming asked.
"Brother, the two ladies and Senior Sister Lan have not returned yet." Meng Manyun replied with a slight bow.
"He hasn't come back yet!" Xia Daoming nodded. He wasn't too surprised, but just a little disappointed.
According to the sect's rules, in addition to being able to take on some paid tasks on their own and practicing to a certain level or for a certain number of years, disciples also need to perform some mandatory tasks assigned by the sect.
Liu Qiaolian, Ji Wenyue, Lan Xue and Lu Ziying had just completed their foundation-building stage. The sect gave them several mandatory tasks to choose from.
In the end, the four chose to stay in a mining area called Jinbiling, which was located on the border between Daliang and Yan.
That mining area not only has a small spirit stone vein, but also a medium-sized silver essence and associated purple cloud gold mine, which is a stable source of income for Qingyuan Sect.
Because the mining area borders the Great Yan Kingdom, and is also close to a canyon abyss where monsters roam, monsters would appear from time to time to attack and kill miners. So in order to prevent the monks of the Great Yan Kingdom from crossing the border to rob and sneak attack, as well as the appearance and attack of monsters, the Qingyuan Sect stationed troops in the Jinbiling mining area all year round.
However, the Jinbiling mining area is not a key industry of the Qingyuan Sect, and no level 4 monsters have ever appeared nearby. Therefore, there is no need for a Jindan elder to be stationed there in person. Generally, several foundation-building cultivators are sent to take turns to be stationed there.
Firstly, it is to protect the industry; secondly, the dangers that appear from time to time are also a kind of tempering for them, which helps them to form the elixir.
The four of them went to Jinbi Ridge together. Xia Daoming originally wanted to go with them. Lan Xue and Lu Ziying didn't dare to say anything, but Liu Qiaolian and Ji Wenyue refused.
They don't want to grow up under his protection forever, they also want to stand on their own.
Xia Daoming actually knew that no matter how talented the four people were, if they wanted to go far on the path of cultivating immortals, they still needed to make their own way and could not always rely on him.
So seeing that Liu Qiaolian and Ji Wenyue were determined, Xia Daoming had no choice but to let go and let them go.
Fortunately, the four of them had pure and powerful true essence and magic power, and were very powerful. Moreover, each of them had the two magic weapons for attack and defense given by him, as well as some ancient jade talismans, Netherworld Thunder, many high-level talismans, and small teleportation talismans. Moreover, Liu Qiaolian was also good at setting up formations, and had the formation plates and flags that he later bought at a high price.
Once they arrive at the mining area, with Liu Qiaolian's personality, she will definitely set up layers of protective formations. Even if a mid-stage Jindan cultivator comes, if he dares to be careless, he will probably die on the spot if he is not careful.
As for the cultivators in the early Jindan period, if they dare to come, they will basically not come back unless there are any accidents.
For a mining area of this level, even if the Great Yan Kingdom sends people to rob it, they generally will not dispatch Jindan cultivators, and will limit the conflict level to below Jindan cultivators.
Even if a Jindan cultivator was really sent, he would be at most in the middle Jindan stage.
It is absolutely impossible to send a late Jindan cultivator out.
There are only a few late Jindan cultivators in a sect, and they are rarely dispatched unless there is a major event.
Therefore, Xia Daoming was actually worried about the safety of the four people.
Returning to the mansion and looking at the empty house, Xia Daoming felt a little depressed.
"Forget it, let's continue to train our body in the alchemy room!" Xia Daoming glanced around and finally decided to train and temper his body.
As for the three tokens, he was not in a hurry to ask Li Tinghui.
As soon as Shen Xulong and the other two died, he took the dead people's belongings to inquire. When the news of Shen Xulong's murder reached Qingyuan Gate, it was inevitable that people would imagine a lot.
When Xia Daoming was about to continue to train and temper his body, a manager came in to report that Jin Ye, the owner of Dayan Mountain, was here to visit.
"What is he doing here? Could it be that he has already found all the spiritual medicines for refining the Nine Heavens Condensing Yuan Pill? Calculating the time, he should have found all the spiritual medicines, but Master's wife has obtained the help of the Nirvana Rebirth Fruit to re-form the golden elixir. She has gained a lot of insights and is taking the opportunity to comprehend the great way to see if there is any hope of reaching the middle stage of the golden elixir in one go. How can she have time to refine the Nine Heavens Condensing Yuan Pill for him?" Xia Daoming frowned slightly. The Jin family of Dayan Mountain was once the upper level of power of Wanluo Mountain.
Jin Ye is the head of the family and a fake Dan cultivator.
When Xia Daoming stood up for the Lu family of Wanluo Mountain, they had a fight and became acquainted.
Shang Rui took into consideration that Xia Daoming's foundation was still shallow and it was not appropriate for him to make enemies everywhere, so he deliberately tried to win over Jin Ye, promising to help him refine the Jiutian Ningyuan Pill that could help people form fake pills.
But at that time, Jin Ye had not yet found all the elixirs needed to refine the Jiutian Ningyuan Pill.
Now, more than twenty years have passed since that incident, and he suddenly came to visit. The first thing Xia Daoming thought of was that he must have come for the Jiutian Ningyuan Pill.
While he was thinking about this, Xia Daoming had already gone out of the house to greet him personally.
Whenever he traveled in Muzhou, he would ride in a royal carriage, and there would be groups of foundation-building monks following him. Jin Ye, who was very impressive, seemed very low-key this time.
He was dressed in white, accompanied by a middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to him. They were standing quietly at the foot of the Red Flame Peak, looking around with flickering eyes and a complicated expression. No one knew what he was thinking.
At this moment, a rainbow bridge of light broke through the sky from the top of the mountain and landed at Jin Ye's feet.
"Master Jin is here, and I, Xia, failed to welcome you. Please forgive me!"
"Fellow Daoist Xia, your words are too sincere. Grandpa and grandson Jin came here uninvited. We are sorry for disturbing you."
Jin Ye hurriedly stepped onto the Rainbow Bridge and bowed deeply to Xia Daoming who was standing at the other end. Not only did he not dare to act like a fake Dan cultivator, but he was extremely humble. The middle-aged man next to him frowned slightly, a hint of disapproval flashed in his eyes, but he still hurriedly followed Jin Ye and bowed deeply.
"Haha, Master Jin, your words are too polite. Please come in." Xia Daoming smiled and invited Jin Ye and the other two into the mansion.
After entering the hall, the host and the guest took their seats and servants served them tea.
The tea is top-quality purple mist spiritual tea, with a rich, leisurely and elegant aroma that makes people feel relaxed and happy. It also has some effect of refining true essence, but it is expensive. The Jindan elders of Qingyuan Sect will only use this tea when entertaining guests of the same level.
True disciples would only treasure this kind of tea and drink it alone, and would never use it to entertain guests.
However, Xia Daoming was wealthy, and was no match for those true disciples. Even the Jindan elders of the Qingyuan Sect could not compare to him.
"This is Purple Mist Spirit Tea!"
Jin Ye's grandson is named Jin Bu. He has a high talent for cultivation. He is just over a hundred years old and has already completed the foundation building. He is Jin Ye's first candidate for the head of the family. Originally, he was somewhat proud of his status and cultivation, but now, seeing that the tea served was actually surrounded by purple clouds and mist, he could not help but show shock on his face and exclaimed.
He had drunk this tea before. It was a special reward from Jin Ye for his great contribution to the family.
Afterwards he wanted to buy it, but it was too expensive and he couldn't bear such an extravagance.
I didn't expect that Xia Daoming, who was just a foundation-building disciple, could casually take out this level of spiritual tea to entertain guests.
"Young friend Jin Bu is knowledgeable and well-informed. This tea is exactly the Purple Mist Spirit Tea." Xia Daoming said with a smile.
Obviously, he is several decades younger than Jin Bu, and his realm is one level lower than Jin Bu's, but he calls him "younger friend" as if it is natural.
"Please have some tea, both of you." After saying that, Xia Daoming raised his glass towards Jin Ye.
"Thank you for the hospitality!" Jin Ye and his grandson raised their glasses quickly.
"I wonder what the purpose of Master Jin's visit is? Could it be that he has already found all the elixirs needed to refine the Nine Heavens Condensing Yuan Pill?" Xia Daoming took a sip of tea, put the teacup down gently, and asked casually.
"It is extremely difficult to refine the Nine Heavens Condensing Yuan Pill, and it takes half a year to do it once. I dare not waste too much of Master Shang's time and magic power, so I want to prepare an extra set of elixirs, so that even if there is any mistake, I can make up for it in time. But elixirs are hard to find, and I have prepared one set, but it will take some years to prepare the other one." Jin Ye replied.
"Master Jin has considered everything very carefully." Xia Daoming breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Otherwise, if Jin Ye had spoken and he had postponed the matter, it would have been somewhat like going back on his word.
"It's my duty. Master Shang's agreement to help me make the elixir is already a great favor. I must learn to cherish it." Jin Ye said modestly.
"Then I wonder if this time, Master Jin..."
"This time, Jin came here to cooperate with fellow Taoists to seek an opportunity." Jin Ye took the initiative to take over the conversation.
"Oh, cooperate to seek an opportunity?" Xia Daoming raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard it, but he was not interested in it in his heart.
This time in the ancient ruins of Nirvana, he made a fortune. He got more than twenty magic weapons alone, and even a lot of spiritual medicines that even the Nascent Soul ancestors would fight for, not to mention other spiritual medicines and spiritual stones.
With his current wealth and vision, ordinary opportunities are no longer worth his attention.
At least, it is no longer worth his personal involvement.
Jin Ye is just a fake alchemy cultivator. It is so difficult for him to even collect a Nine-Day Condensing Yuan Pill. What kind of great opportunity could he be planning?
Xia Daoming naturally had no interest.
"Fellow Daoist Xia, have you ever heard of the name of the Ghost Chariot Demon Bird?" Jin Ye naturally didn't know Xia Daoming's current wealth. Even the most powerful Jindan elder of Qingyuan Sect was much inferior to him. When he saw Xia Daoming's eyebrows raised, he naturally thought that he was a little interested. He immediately lowered his voice, as if he was afraid that someone next door might eavesdrop.
"It's really not a great opportunity." Xia Daoming thought to himself, but said calmly: "I have read the name of the Ghost Chariot in a book of our sect. It is said that in ancient times, this beast had a human head and a bird body, ten necks and nine heads. It loved to drink blood and capture souls. It was a very vicious bird.
However, times have changed. The ghost cars that remain in our world today still have ten necks, but most of them only have one head. They are level four, initial-stage demon birds. A few can grow a second head, but almost no one has seen one with three heads. They no longer live up to the name of ancient ferocious birds.
"Master Jin suddenly mentioned the name of the ghost car. Could it be that you have seen it somewhere? As far as I know, the ghost car is almost extinct in our world now and is extremely difficult to find."
"It's not me who saw it, but a friend of mine who is a casual cultivator saw it somewhere overseas a few days ago. Although this ghost chariot is only a level 4 primary demon bird, its intelligence is far superior to other demon birds. It is also timid and fast. It is also good at the five elements of magic. It can fly into the sky and hide underground. It will escape if the situation is slightly wrong. Even if a cultivator in the middle or late Jindan stage is dispatched, it is difficult to catch and kill it.
Therefore, if you want to kill this monster bird, you must set up a net around its activities in advance, leaving it no way to escape. In this way, you need many people to work together to set up a large formation that can cover a large area in advance. My friend has a formation plate and formation flags, called the Inverted Five Elements Nine Palaces Formation, which requires five false pill cultivators and nine foundation cultivators to work together to set it up, so I came to visit you and want to cooperate with you. "
"So that's how it is." Xia Daoming showed a trace of relief when he heard this, but soon changed his tone and said, "However, the Jin family has many disciples who have established their foundation. Why would Fellow Daoist Jin go to such a far place and specially give me an opportunity?"
PS: I just found out that this book already has a million words, and I feel a little emotional!
