Chapter 390 Status
"What wind brought Master Yang here?"

The old man in purple felt extremely flustered as he looked at the many disciples of the Five Elements Immortal Sect in front of him.

At a glance, there are at least a dozen Void Refining cultivators. With such strength, who would dare to provoke them in this secret place across the Nether Abyss?

Not to mention that behind it is a behemoth like the Five Elements Immortal Sect.

"Greetings, Elder Zhong. I and my fellow brothers are here to look for a spiritual object," Yang Bao said with a warm expression, taking out a key from his arms.

It is exactly the spiritual object needed in the seventh-level cave.

Zhong Zhixing looked at the key in Yang Bao's hand with confusion.

"This thing..."

An elder behind me sent a message to remind me:
"Great Elder, I have seen this item in Senior Brother Zhou's hands."

Zhong Zhixing turned around and looked at the person behind him:
"Zhou Yan, do you have this?"

The latter looked at the key and his face suddenly realized something, but he immediately stammered, not knowing what to say.

Yang Baowen smiled and said:

"If you have this item, don't worry and bring it out. I, Chiyang Palace, will definitely offer you a price that will satisfy you."

The latter's forehead was sweating, and he wiped it with his big hand:
"It's not that I don't want to take it out, it's just that I sold it to Fellow Daoist Gu a few days ago."

After the other party said this, the entire Ziqi Palace knew who this Fellow Daoist Gu was.

Yang Bao seemed to be in a daze:

"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Gu Fengyu."

This person is Gu Fengyu, a member of the younger generation of Ziqi Palace, who once appeared in a photo session held in Xuanxiao Pavilion.

When one reaches the late stage of Lianxu cultivation, one can rely on his swordsmanship to persist for seven breaths in the state of Hedao.

Such a record is outstanding among the same level, and he is likely to be a candidate to succeed the Ziqi Palace.

Such a genius may be outstanding in the Chong'an Spiritual Realm, but he is still not good enough in the huge Mahayana sect, the Five Elements Immortal Sect.

Yang Bao asked again without any pause:
"Where is this Daoist friend Gu?"

The Purple Qi Palace disciples looked at each other in bewilderment. Suddenly, a voice came from the back of the crowd:

"I'm here!"

The handsome Gu Fengyu pushed through the crowd and came to the front of the team.

Facing the disciples of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, he did not show much humility and simply bowed.

Yang Bao returned the gift and praised:

"I have heard of Brother Gu's great name for a long time. Now that I see him, I realize that he is indeed extraordinary."

"Friend Yang is a forgetful person. We have met before in Xuanxiao Sect."

Yang Bao scratched his hair awkwardly:

"Really? Look at my memory."

He laughed it off and immediately explained his purpose.

Gu Fengyu had already known the other party's background at the back of the team. When he heard his request again, he did not respond immediately.

"I spent a lot of money to get this key. I really don't want to give it up like this."

Yang Bao originally thought that the other party would raise the price, but unexpectedly Gu Fengyu changed the subject:
"I don't want to be known as a thief.

"How about Brother Yang and I agree to a fight? If Brother Yang wins, I will hand over this key to you without you having to spend a single spirit stone."

Zhong Zhixing behind him was stunned when he heard this:
"Fengyu!"

Before he could finish his words, Zhi raised his hand to stop him, looked at Yang Bao and asked:

"I wonder what Brother Yang thinks?"

Yang Bao looked at his fellow disciples around him, and then towards Gu Fengyu:

"Brother Gu, you are joking. I am only in the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm. How can I compete with Brother Gu who has already entered the late stage?"

"I can suppress my cultivation."

“No, no, I am just a weapon refiner and have little experience in fighting.

"In my opinion, it would be better if Senior Brother Yao fought on my behalf. After all, we are all disciples of the Red Sun Palace, so it is legitimate. Moreover, it would not require Brother Gu to suppress his cultivation."

Gu Fengyu pondered for a moment and then nodded.

Yao Zichen stood up and twisted his wrist:
"Time is running out, Brother Gu, why don't we fight to decide the outcome?"

Gu Fengyu:
"Okay, but neither you nor I are allowed to use any magic weapons. We will simply compete in spiritual power."

The Chiyang Palace is famous for its weapon refining skills, and this agreement seems to be intended to weaken Yao Zichen.

Yao Zichen nodded:

"Can!"

After a moment, Gu Fengyu supported his arm with one hand and watched the Five Elements Immortal Sect's people leave with a complicated expression.

"Is the Five Elements Law so terrifying?"

Gu Fengyu is able to be the best in the Ziqi Palace, so his strength is naturally worthy of praise.

One-handed sword technique, even without a sword in hand, can still be performed with the help of one's own body.

But these methods are no match for Yao Zichen.

"Failed!"

"Big Brother actually lost!"

There was a lot of discussion among the disciples.

Zhong Zhixing stood up and said:
"This person is no ordinary person in the Chiyang Palace. Fengyu, you deserve to lose."

Gu Fengyu shook his head without explaining.

A hand holding a storage bag handed it to the former.

Zhong Zhixing took it, glanced at it and muttered:
“This descendant of the Yang family is much friendlier than that great master of Hedao. Even if you take the initiative to provoke him and lose the competition, you can still use spirit stones to buy this token.

"Keep it well!"

He returned it to Gu Fengyu and reminded him:
“Besides, this matter is not over yet.

"More than a dozen Void Refiners from the Five Elements Immortal Sect have come out together. There must be some incredible treasure behind this key.

"We are intimidated by the power of their immortal sect and dare not plot anything.

"But you have already caused taboos in the Five Elements Immortal Sect about this matter, so you need to ease up a bit."

Gu Fengyu frowned when he heard this, but Zhong Zhixing remained firm.

"There are a few Earth Marrow Hearts that will be shipped from our sect. They are needed by the Seventh-rank Alchemist from the Five Elements Immortal Sect. I'll leave this transaction to you.

"Remember, be nice. Making friends with people like them will only benefit you in the future."

"Yes, disciple understands!"

Wei Zhong had no idea that such nagging would involve himself.

At this moment, Wei Zhong has escaped from the spiritual world and arrived at the spiritual land of the demon world.

Outside the Liefeng tribe, Wei Zhong inserted the formation flags into the ground according to the directions.

Some of the flags are half exposed on the surface, while others are deep into the ground.

The arrangement of the flags in the formation is uneven, but they follow the direction of the underground spiritual veins.

Finally, Wei Zhong held the main formation flag in his hand, flew down, and inserted the flag into an exposed spiritual vein.

"almost!"

Wei Zhong shouted:
"Array up!"

Suddenly, the ground rose up and sand and rocks flew everywhere.

Such a commotion alarmed many monsters nearby.

The weak ones fled in all directions, while the strong ones soared into the sky.

Wei Zhong watched the mountains change and stared at the ground for half a quarter of an hour.

The noise finally stopped.

After calming down, Wei Zhong raised his sleeves and eighteen battle flags flew into his hands.
Wei Zhong stepped back into the Liefeng tribe and saw that the demon dragon here looked excited.

Luo Jia stepped forward to announce the good news:

“Reporting to the master, the concentration of spiritual energy within the tribe has increased by 30%.

"Where the Spiritual Medicine Garden is located, the concentration of spiritual energy exceeds 60%..."

Wei Zhong nodded continuously upon hearing this.

He has been researching the Fuling Qiankun Formation for several years, and this is the first time he is practicing it.

The Hunting Wind Tribe is located at the end of a seventh-level spiritual vein, which is of the sixth-level upper quality.

The 18 flags of the Fuling Qiankun Formation can adjust the seventh-order spiritual veins at most, so it is no problem to operate the spiritual veins here. "The spiritual veins here are connected to the seventh-order spiritual veins, and they are the extension of the end...

"Although I can't intercept and seal the spiritual veins, I can make slight adjustments and gather the insignificant spiritual veins on the periphery into the tribe. It's not as difficult as I imagined..."

Sensing the significant increase in the concentration of spiritual energy here, Wei Zhong murmured:
"The concentration of spiritual veins here can be called the sixth-grade top grade, right? It's a pity that the source of the seventh-grade spiritual veins cannot be cut off, otherwise I would also have my own seventh-grade spiritual land to use."

Shaking his head slightly, Wei Zhong sent away the group of dragons and walked into the wind tunnel again along the inner cave.

The intensity of the gale here has dropped slightly, but not much.

Wei Zhong moved most of the spiritual energy underground to the top through the formation flags, but the spiritual veins were still underground and were only weakened to a limited extent.

With the help of the Wind-Fixing Beads for protection, he arrived in front of the Immortal Weapon Cave.

Wei Zhong prepared himself, took a quick look, then dissipated the impact and retreated.

The location of the broken immortal weapon has not moved, including the two veins hidden underground.

The immortal weapon is like a stick on top of honey. The two are connected by spiritual energy and are difficult to separate.

"If we want to completely remove this immortal weapon, we may have to completely cut off the spiritual veins of this place from the seventh level spiritual veins, which is quite difficult."

Wei Zhong once checked along the spiritual vein and found that the spiritual vein of the Liefeng tribe was connected to the Liekong tribe in the distance.

Without going deep into the tribe, we still don’t know what level the underground spiritual vein is, which is the seventh stage.

"If it's mid- to high-level, these eighteen battle flags are not enough."

Intercepting a spiritual vein is a very serious undertaking. Not only will one suffer backlash from the main spiritual vein, but a stronger and more complete magic array is required.

And it will definitely attract the attention of the Likong Tribe.

If Wei Zhong wants to obtain the immortal weapon safely, his cultivation level of the middle stage of the Refinement Realm is not enough.

"We still need to purchase more battle flags..."

Wei Zhong murmured to himself as he walked out of the wind tunnel and came to the spiritual place above.

After looking around the spiritual medicine garden, he saw that it was full of spiritual energy and many spiritual creatures were growing well, and he nodded continuously.

Just as Wei Zhong was looking around, Tracer landed behind him:
"Sir, the day to pay tribute to the Sky Splitting Tribe is approaching."

Wei Zhong asked around and found out that it was just five years later.

However, it seems that the direction of tribute has changed again.

"Special envoy inspection?"

"That's right. It is rumored that a special envoy from the Sky Breaker will arrive in two years to inspect the status of our spiritual land and adjust the tribute ratio."

Liefeng looked unhappy.

Their tribe was already having a hard time surviving because of the oppression from that group of guys, and now they were doing this to them, which was really too much.

Wei Zhong looked thoughtful and frowned as he looked towards the spiritual medicine garden.

"It seems we have to cover it up again."

To travel between the two worlds, Wei Zhong purchased a high-level concealing formation, the Eight Directions Return to Spirit Formation, from the Mingyuan Market.

It was used to cover the entire spiritual medicine garden, and at the same time, the tribe's underground spiritual veins were adjusted again, gathering a large amount of spiritual energy into the spiritual medicine garden, so that the spiritual energy in the tribe returned to its previous level.

“If anything unexpected happens, let me know.

"Remember not to conflict with the Sky Rift Tribe.

"If necessary, Biyuan, you can pretend to attack this place and scare off the envoy."

"Yes, Master!"

After finishing the affairs here, Wei Zhong returned to the spiritual world.

After bidding farewell to Liu Ruochen in the Mingyuan Market, Wei Zhong grabbed the storage bag full of spiritual materials and returned to the Chiyang Boat.

Before I stepped into the boat, I saw a cultivator in a white Taoist robe.

The latter stood outside the spirit boat, with no intention of entering, until he saw Wei Zhong's escape light returning, then he turned around to greet him:

"Greetings, fellow Taoist Wu Se!"

Wei Zhong looked at the latter's face and was surprised:

"It's actually Fellow Daoist Gu?"

Wei Zhong recognized the man's identity at a glance. He was surprised and bowed in return.

Without waiting for Wei Zhong to ask about the latter's origins, he took the initiative to explain the purpose of this trip:

"I heard that you wanted to buy the Earth's Marrow, so the palace specially asked me to deliver it to you."

"The core of the earth?" Wei Zhong's expression brightened.

Immediately invite the other party into the boat for a detailed chat.

The two men sat down on the reception platform, and Wei Zhong took the storage bag containing the earth marrow core from him.

With a quick glance of his divine sense, he immediately showed surprise:

“It is indeed the Earth Marrow Core, five in total, two of the sixth-grade upper grade, one of the middle grade, and two of the lower grade.

"Your clan really has a lot of tricks to be able to find so many."

Gu Fengyu just smiled.

Both parties delivered spiritual materials and spiritual stones as agreed.

Gu Fengyu then mentioned Wei Zhong's alchemy skills, praising him endlessly, and at the same time secretly expressed his desire to ask Wei Zhong for help in refining the elixir.

Wei Zhong weighed the storage bag in his hand:

"I'm afraid there won't be a chance recently. How about we do it another day, Brother Gu?"

Gu Fengyu politely declined, remembering the advice of the palace elders, and his face showed no sign of displeasure.

Instead, he smiled:
"Fellow Daoist, you just collected these things, probably to refine them. I am a little abrupt..."

After a few words, the topic changed to Yang Bao:
"Why didn't I see Fellow Daoist Yang?"

Wei Zhong put down the teacup in his hand:

"Brother Yang is busy with the sect's mission and has not yet returned from the Ge Ming Yuan. Does Brother Gu have anything important to say?"

The other party then mentioned the last conflict, and there was an apology in his words.

"What's the big deal? Brother Yang isn't the kind of person who would take revenge for any slight. As for Senior Brother Yao, he's also a generous person.

"Friend Gu, there is no need to worry.

"At worst, I'll wait until they return and say a few good words to them."

Gu Fengyu stood up after hearing this:
"In that case, thank you very much, Taoist Fellow Wu Se!"

At the same time, he handed over a storage bag.

Wei Zhong didn't need to use his spiritual power to check what was inside. It was nothing more than a kickback for entrusting someone else to do something.

However, Wei Zhong is very wealthy and would not care about this.

Euphemism:

“Fellow Daoist Gu, you don’t have to be polite. If you really feel sorry for me, please help me pay more attention to the core of the earth.

"After you find it, trade with me. I won't be stingy with spiritual stones, including elixirs and magical instruments..."

In the end, Wei Zhong returned the storage bag.

After seeing Gu Fengyu off, he couldn't help but shake his head.

"The power of this Mahayana Immortal Sect is truly terrifying. It was clearly the other party that suffered a loss, yet they still came to apologize and surrender."

Feeling sad about the law of the jungle in this spiritual world, Wei Zhong returned to his cultivation cave holding the storage bag containing the earth marrow.

"Finally we can start!"

As soon as he entered the cave, he lit the furnace, took out the jade slip, and recalled the refining process one last time before refining.

After he was familiar with all the processes, Wei Zhong officially started.

Two years flew by.

In the Liefeng tribe of the demon world, Liefeng and Zhukong looked at the demon dragon flying in the distance and immediately stepped forward:

"Welcome to the envoy!"

Both of them had smiling faces, regarded themselves as inferiors, and their every word and action revealed their flattering intentions.

The Sky-Splitting Dragon that arrived was only in the middle stage of the sixth level, one level lower than Liefeng's cultivation.

But at this moment his face was full of defiance.

Looking at the Wind Hunter Tribe in front of him, he couldn't help but think:
"Poor guy!"

Then flapped his wings:

"Come on, let me take a good look at your tribe. After the inspection, I will report to the tribe and ask for the tax payment..."
