Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 160 Puyang
Wei Zhong, who received the invitation from the Wang family, left Qingbo Island early and prepared to set off.

On this trip, Wei Zhong was not only planning to attend the banquet at the Wang family, but also to go to the Yunji Chamber of Commerce in Yunzhou City.

'At present, I am basically outside the core of Yunji Chamber of Commerce, and the only connection with Yunji Chamber of Commerce is the token and the medium between Shan Qin and Miaoli Shan.

It can be said that I know very little about Yunji Chamber of Commerce. Why not take this opportunity to learn more about Yunji Chamber of Commerce and lay a good foundation for seeking Yuanying opportunities in the future.'

As Wei Zhong was thinking this, he had already escaped from the Five Elements Killing Formation behind him.

Only one silver-black puppet was brought on this trip, and the remaining two sets of five-element puppets were left on Qingbo Island to form a killing formation to protect the Ling Island.

However, the cloned soul had already been taken back by Wei Zhong to prevent it from rebelling due to the long journey.

Waving his hand and taking out the spirit boat, Wei Zhong headed towards the southwest, which was the direction of Yunzhou City.

Luohe Prefecture is adjacent to Yunzhou City. If Wei Zhong uses his cloud-flying skills to the fullest, he can arrive there in just ten days.

However, Wei Zhong planned to use the spirit boat, which would take more than ten to twenty days.

Wei Zhong was on the spirit boat, looking at the flickering and receding scenery below, his face full of thought.

After a while, the spirit boat turned a corner and arrived near Gang Palace.

Wei Zhong saw the formation that had not changed at all, as well as several spirit boats in the air.

After hearing what the disciple said, he knew that not all of Zhigang Palace moved to Yunzhou City, but only a small number of people in the palace went to Yunzhou City for development. The rest of the people stayed in Luohe Prefecture.

"Division of the sect?"

Wei Zhong watched for a while, then drove the spirit boat away.

Wei Zhong was not surprised by Zhigang Palace's move.

Luohe Prefecture did not abandon its basic foundation, but instead opened up the resource channel to Yunzhou City.

In the future, we can advance or retreat, and the sect will not be in danger of collapse because of Song Linfang's experience.

Of course, it is more likely that the Wang family needs to use the Zhigang Palace as a springboard to deal with the local puppet secret realm.

After all, even if Song Linfang married into the Wang family, she was still half a native cultivator of Luohe Prefecture and had a legitimate reason to be a disciple.

The spiritual boat under Wei Zhong's feet glowed with spiritual light and turned into a bright yellow afterimage moving towards the southwest.

However, Wei Zhong inside did not sit cross-legged in meditation to cherish this little time. Instead, he rubbed the silver ring in his hand, and sent out his spiritual sense, vigilantly checking whether there was an ambush on the road.

After all, this trip was a long way away from the most prosperous area of ​​Luohe Prefecture. The intersection of Luohe Prefecture and Yunzhou City was an unfamiliar area to Wei Zhong, and any accidents could happen.

Although Wei Zhong is very powerful, he does not dare to be careless.

Fortunately, after walking for several days, there were no blind robbers to provoke us.

However, I did see several fights between Qi Refining and even Foundation Building cultivators. Spirit boats whizzed through the sky, shocking countless cultivators below and causing them to stop fighting.

······
Inside the spirit boat, Wei Zhong was contemplating the inheritance jade slip while his spiritual sense was alert to the surroundings.

Suddenly, he saw a beam of light at the Jindan level flying towards his spirit boat and landing in front of the spirit boat, revealing the image of a slightly honest man.

"Hello, fellow Taoist. My name is Xun Yangzi. Are you heading to Yunzhou City?"

Wei Zhong was puzzled, but he still put down the jade slip in his hand, emerged from the spirit boat, and answered with a folded hand:

"That's right. I wonder why you want to stop my spiritual boat?"

The other person smiled, revealing two small dimples, which immediately made people feel closer:

"I am from the Puyang family in Baling Prefecture, and I am also heading to Yunzhou City. I wonder if I can go with you, fellow Taoist?"

Wei Zhong couldn't help but speak out after listening to what the other party said:
"The Puyang family? But is it the Yuanying family of the Baling Prefecture?"

Like Song Linfang from Luohe Prefecture, Yunzhou is not the only city in the core area of ​​Yunzhou that can produce Nascent Soul.

The Puyang family of Balin Prefecture is such an existence, and it is also a Yuanying family with a very long heritage.

It is said that there have been Nascent Soul cultivators in the clan for two or three thousand years, and they are almost evergreen from generation to generation. Whenever an old Nascent Soul cultivator in the clan is about to die, a new one will be promoted to take charge of the family.

It's a magical family.

"I didn't expect that my Puyang family has such a reputation in Yunzhou City? I wonder who you are?"

Wei Zhong replied:

"I am Wei Zhong from Luohe Prefecture, nice to meet you, Taoist Xun Yangzi."

"So it's Fellow Daoist Wei. I wonder what you think of what I just said. We are still quite a distance from Yunzhou City. Do you want to go with me so that we can look after each other?"

Wei Zhong estimated that with the speed of his spirit boat, it would take another seven days to get out of this middle area and officially enter the core area of ​​Yunzhou City.

Originally, with Wei Zhong's skills, this trip was safe and worry-free, but the monk in front of him...

Wei Zhong considered it and took a step back:
"Of course, fellow Taoist, please get on board. I have some spirit wine in my hand for you to taste."

"Then I am in for a treat!"

Xun Yangzi bowed and landed on the deck of the spirit boat. Under the guidance of Wei Zhong, he sank into the boat.

He sat cross-legged in front of the table, looking at the dense spiritual patterns in the cabin, and exclaimed:

"Brother Daoist Wei's spiritual boat is quite good. It is probably the top level among the third-level flying instruments."

Wei Zhong poured him a glass of wine:
"Daoyou has a good vision. This boat..."

Wei Zhong followed his words to explain the composition of the spirit boat, which immediately aroused his interest.

"Could it be that Fellow Daoist Wei is also a weapon refiner?"

Wei Zhong admitted it with a smile and chatted with him about the art of refining.

Of course, Wei Zhong did not reveal part of his equipment-refining skills for no reason.

"I heard that the Puyang family where Fellow Daoist Xun Yangzi is from is also a large family of weapon refiners..."

Balin Prefecture is located in the northeast corner of Yunzhou, with a mountain range stretching from east to west, which is composed of eight ridges.

As the only Yuanying family in this prefecture and even in the nearby prefectures, the Puyang family is the undisputed overlord, occupying half of the eight ridges.

Although it cannot compare to the several Yuanying forces in Yunzhou City, it is also extremely noble.

The clan even has a tradition of refining weapons, and is one of the few families that can refine fourth-level magical weapons.

Moreover, most of the disciples in the clan are proficient in the art of refining instruments, and they can refine first, second and third level magical instruments and sell them to nearby prefectures.

It is said that this equipment refining business has even reached the more remote Beiyuan area.

It is precisely because of this kind of craftsmanship, as well as the continuation of the Nascent Soul of the disciples within the clan, that the family's inheritance has been able to survive for thousands of years.

"It's a pity that my skills are not good enough. After practicing for half a year, I can only refine a second-level magic weapon. I have brought shame to my family."

Wei Zhong also learned his specific identity through chatting with him. He is the second son of Puyang Yuanfu, the current head of the Puyang family. He is currently in the early stage of Jindan cultivation. This trip is to Yunzhou City to participate in the Wang Family Celebration and travel around Yunzhou to gain more knowledge.

"Although you are not proficient in the art of refining weapons, your cultivation has not buried the Puyang family's reputation."

Xun Yangzi is only 240 years old now, but he has already reached the Jindan stage of cultivation. This is far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

According to Wei Zhong's estimation, this person at least has the aptitude of an earth spiritual root. Perhaps he is the next Nascent Soul cultivator of the Puyang family.

"Alas," Xun Yangzi sighed, "After talking about the Puyang family for so long, I still know very little about Fellow Daoist Wei!"

Wei Zhong chuckled:
"I just have a few skills and left an impression in front of Senior Song. I am here to attend the banquet at Wang's house just like fellow Taoists."

“Senior Song, you are the fairy Song who is the Taoist partner of the Patriarch of the Wang family. I heard that she was born in Luohe Prefecture. I didn’t expect that she is actually…”

Xun Yangzi had a strange look on his face, and I wonder what kind of grudges he had imagined.

"Fellow Daoist Xun Yangzi, please don't be delusional. I already have a Taoist partner and a family. It's just that because of my skills, I have a certain trading relationship with the Zhigang Palace where Senior Song is."

The Puyang family, to which Xun Yangzi belongs, is a major seller of magical instruments, and they probably understand this kind of business dealings.

Nodding slightly:

"However, fellow Daoist has been favored by the Nascent Soul. It seems that the skills in your hands are not as simple as you said?"

Wei Zhong smiled bitterly. With his ordinary alchemy and refining skills, he was not qualified to be invited by a Nascent Soul cultivator. But Wei Zhong's Buyuan Pill had saved Song Linfang's life.

After laughing, Wei Zhong began to inquire about the matter of Shuangwu Lingshan Mountain. As a large Yuanying family in the northern part of Yunzhou, they must have some knowledge of this sacred mountain and the Yinxiao Yulu in it.

“What Daoist friend said about the Silver Sky Jade Dew is indeed true. In a few decades, this spiritual object will be produced again on Shuangwu Mountain.

Daoists who are interested can go and have a look, but the probability of obtaining such a spiritual object is very low."

After saying this, he also took a look at Wei Zhong's cultivation level, and found that he was indeed in the early stage of Jindan like himself.

"Oh, I wonder what kind of mystery there is. Could you reveal a little?"

Wei Zhong poured him a glass of wine.

"It's not that mysterious. Fellow Daoist, you can go to the north and ask around and you'll find out," Xun Yangzi then began to explain in detail.

"The Silver Sky Jade Dew has the effect of accelerating the growth of spiritual plants. It is applicable to all levels below ten thousand years, and even those above ten thousand years can have a slight increase. It can be said to be an extremely precious spiritual item in the northern part of Yunzhou.

Such spiritual objects would naturally attract many monks with high cultivation levels to fight for them.

At that time, not only will all the great masters of the North come out, but cultivators from slightly more remote places will also go to Shuangwu Lingshan to participate in this event.

Even the monks from Beiyuan, who live in the north of Yunzhou, are no exception."

Wei Zhong was somewhat surprised when he heard this:

"How can we allow the monks from Beiyuan to interfere with the opportunities in Yunzhou?"

The cultivation world that Wei Zhong knew was full of serious regional prejudices. Even Nascent Soul cultivators like Song Linfang had to rely on the Wang family if they wanted to develop a sect in Yunzhou City.

Not to mention the precious spiritual objects of heaven and earth such as the Silver Sky Jade Dew.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, you don't know. This spiritual object, Silver Sky Jade Dew, was successfully forged after experiencing a huge tide of spiritual energy condensing into its original form in the sky thousands of feet high, and absorbing the power of a hundred years of starlight, as well as many other changes.

Strictly speaking, this thing was condensed in the sky thousands of feet high at the junction of Yunzhou and Beiyuan, but it fell into Shuangwu Lingshan Mountain along the spiritual energy current that occurs every five hundred years. "

Wei Zhong never expected that the Silver Sky Jade Dew had such an origin.

"Coming from a height of ten thousand feet, could it be that there has always been a lot of Silver Jade Dew in the sky?"

Xun Yangzi grinned:
"According to the speculation of the experts, of course there is. However, it is thousands of feet high, and I am afraid that only the Divine Incarnation cultivators can go there.

The danger involved is hard to estimate, and the value of the Silver Sky Jade Dew is not proportional to the risk. A Divine Transformation cultivator would probably not do such a thankless task.

Yuanying cultivators cannot reach that high altitude realm, so it is better to let them fall into the Frost Wuling Mountain realm naturally every five hundred years."

Wei Zhong nodded slowly.

Although the practitioners in this world can fly in the air, there are limits. For a Jindan cultivator, it is already very impressive if he can fly a thousand feet high. Any higher and the strong winds and various risks will exceed the Jindan cultivator's ability to cope with.

As for the Nascent Soul cultivators above the Jindan stage, according to Wei Zhong's understanding, they are probably around three thousand feet or above, varying depending on their strength.

Trapped in Wei Zhong's trap, he didn't know much.

But the sky thousands of feet high is definitely a forbidden area for cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and below.

'It's a pity that Ten Thousand Zhangs is still too high for me, otherwise I could use the [Time Dao Method] to get some Silver Sky Jade Dew from the sky.'

"In short, if you want to obtain the Silver Sky Jade Dew, you have to wait for the spiritual energy currents that occur every five hundred years. Daoist friend, are you asking about this item because you have an important spiritual plant that needs to be cultivated?"

Wei Zhong nodded:

"There is indeed a spiritual plant that is of vital importance to me. I wonder if any of these families in the north have any relics of the Silver Sky Jade Dew?"

Wei Zhong raised his head and looked towards Xun Yangzi, making him feel a little embarrassed.

"For the details, you need to go to the nearby families to ask. As for my Puyang family, the Silver Sky Jade Dew was divided up and used as soon as it was obtained. How can it continue to exist?"

Wei Zhong sighed in disappointment.

"It would be better if we could exchange it with spiritual stones and spiritual objects, so that we don't have to wait for decades. But seeing Xun Yangzi's attitude, even if the Puyang family still has treasures, they probably won't give them to a strange cultivator like me."

"I am interested in participating in the next competition for the Silver Sky Jade Dew. I hope that Brother Xun Yangzi can give me some advice then."

As the local boss, the Puyang family naturally knows more about the competition for spiritual objects here than Wei Zhong, a foreigner.

"Okay, okay. When you go to Baling Prefecture, I will do my best to be a good host..."

The two of them had a very pleasant conversation, ranging from the northern part of Yunzhou to the styles of various prefectures.

Xun Yangzi did not keep anything to himself and shared everything he had seen and heard over the years with Wei Zhong.

"This Xun Yangzi is a talkative person, worth associating with."

Although he was born in a Nascent Soul family, he was not as arrogant as other youngsters and was very polite to Wei Zhong, a Jindan cultivator.

There is no intention in his words to show off the superiority of his background. Instead, he often speaks in a self-deprecating manner.

As the two communicated, seven days passed quickly and they had arrived at the core area of ​​Yunzhou City.

"I have some personal matters to attend to, so I have to say goodbye to you. I will meet you at Wang's house later!"

Wei Zhong said goodbye to him and left, landing in a prosperous market in the distance.

After knocking on the gate of a courtyard, the gate opened from the inside, revealing the figure of a woman.

Wei Zhong bowed and clasped his hands:

"Greetings, Senior Miao!"
