Chapter 130 The Iron-Eating Tribe’s Top Priority Gu Yuanqing returned to his chair, poured another cup of tea for the two of them, and asked, "What are your plans for the future?" The two looked at each other, and Xing Fei asked, "Excuse me, how far is this place from Lanting City?" Gu Yuanqing made a rough estimate and said, "About three thousand miles." Xing Fei's expression changed slightly: "More than three thousand miles, it will take at least two days for the two of us to go there." Gu Yuanqing said: "Two days may not be enough. On the way there, you will have to take a detour through several territories of Dan Realm monsters. It will take at least three days. Are you ready to go there?" Xing Fei said, "When we set out, the headmaster told us where we could reunite if we got separated. The two of us would like to rest in this mountain for a day and heal our injuries, and then set out early the day after tomorrow." Gu Yuanqing nodded and said, "In that case, you two should rest in this courtyard for a day." As he spoke, Gu Yuanqing performed the mind seal technique, and the image of a courtyard appeared in the minds of the two. At the same time, he slightly relaxed his suppression on the two of them. They only felt that their vitality and thoughts were restored, but all their vitality and perceptions were still only within their bodies, and they could not spy on anything in the outside world. The spiritual energy from the outside world stopped approaching the two of them when it was about three meters away. Gu Yuanqing did this to prevent any accidents. Although these two people were not bad people, they must not be allowed to know about the abnormality of the vital energy here, so as to avoid causing trouble if it gets out.
Xing Fei and Lu Jianqiu stood up and said goodbye. Gu Yuanqing watched the two of them leave, picked up a cup of tea and took a sip. Thinking of the several Yanshan Sect members who died tragically on the road, he sighed in his heart: "Compared to this world, the floating world has become a stable and peaceful place. At least there is no worry of being killed by monsters." As he thought about it, a breeze suddenly blew up in the courtyard assigned to the two people to live in, and all the dust in the courtyard was blown up. In a moment, the furniture and floor in the house were spotless. Zhang Xuanlin and Ji Qingyun also came to the courtyard, looking at the messy courtyard full of fallen leaves. There seemed to be dust accumulation in the room, and they were a little silent. If they had some cultivation, they could dispel the dust with a thought, but they naturally did not have that ability at this time. Ji Qingyun said hurriedly: "Master, please wait a moment. I will clean up the yard first. There is a spring on the mountainside. I will go and fetch a few buckets of water." Zhang Xuanlin smiled: "Thank you for your hard work." Boom! There were sudden flashes of lightning and thunder in the sky, but before one knew it, the sky was already covered with dark clouds and heavy rain poured down from far away. The rainwater is washed by the power of Beiquan Mountain, falls into the mountain, and nourishes the earth. When it fell on Gu Yuanqing's head, it naturally avoided him. Gu Yuanqing called for a stream of clean water to wash the teacup he had just used, and with a wave of his hand, all the tea sets flew back into the house. In fact, he didn't need water, he only used the power of controlling objects to make the teacup clean in an instant. However, it was a habit he had developed over decades, and he always felt that a cup that had not been washed was not very clean. In a small courtyard below, Xing Fei and Lu Jianqiu sat opposite each other. "Brother, are Junior Sister Ling'er and the other brothers really... dead?" Lu Jianqiu's voice trembled. He had restrained his emotions in front of Gu Yuanqing just now, but at this moment, he could no longer hold back. Xing Fei's face was also very ugly, but he suppressed his grief and squeezed out a little smile and said: "Junior sister, I know you are very sad, so am I. However, the dead cannot be resurrected. The only way for the two of us to avenge them is to concentrate on cultivation and break through the Dan realm as soon as possible, or even the Shentai realm, so that we can avenge them. This revenge is not only for these monsters in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, but also for the Lord of Canglan City, the Qian family of Zhenbei City, and the Beilong Sword Sect of Qizhou Prefecture. If it weren't for them, how could our Yanshan Sect have to come to these Hundred Thousand Mountains." Lu Jianqiu nodded with tears in his eyes, and said bitterly: "And them, if it weren't for them, how could Master, Uncle Qi, and so many fellow brothers and sisters have lost their lives." "Okay, let's stop talking. Now is not the time to think about these things. Let's heal our wounds first. Only in this way can we go to Lanting City and meet up with the headmaster earlier." "Ok!" The two men calmed their minds and each took out a healing pill and prepared to take it, but suddenly they were stunned.
The two looked at each other. "Could it be the effect of the tea I drank before?" Lu Jianqiu guessed uncertainly. Xing Fei nodded: "This is the only possible possibility. Before, I forcibly used the Falling Wild Goose Sword Qi, and several meridians were damaged, but now most of these meridians have healed. And the wounds on our bodies are also healing very quickly." "It seems that I owe this senior another favor." Xing Fei said: "I can only repay this great favor after I have achieved success in my cultivation in the future." …… Gu Yuanqing withdrew his gaze. Combining the previous battle scene between the two men at the foot of the mountain with the basic secret book in his hand, he had a general judgment in his mind. "The cultivation in the floating world is of the same origin as the cultivation world, and the true qi in the Demon Realm is also similar to that in the cultivation world, except that the true qi in the cultivation world is mild and neutral, while the true qi in the Demon Realm is more violent and has a heavier murderous aura!" "Spiritual energy is also very beneficial to the people in the Demon Realm. Their skills seem to rely on their own will to eliminate the negative emotions carried in the demonic energy and then use it for their own benefit. Judging from the fact that Beiquan Mountain can transform demonic energy into spiritual energy, there is actually no difference between the two in essence." “Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the beasts in the Demon Realm flock to the spiritual fruit transformed from my Dao essence.” It took Gu Yuanqing a while to collect his thoughts. These things would be helpful to him in his future actions in the Demon Realm. He glanced at Zhang Xuanlin and Ji Qingyun again. Zhang Xuanlin stood under the eaves, looking up at the sky, as if he wanted to see the blood moon through the clouds. Ji Qingyun was still busy. Fortunately, even though his cultivation was unable to function, his physical strength was still there and he was able to clean up very quickly. However, he was obviously in a bad mood. He had been in the floating world for five hundred years and had been the leader of the Lingxu Sect. He had never done such a thing. He was a dignified monk of the Divine Platform, but was imprisoned here and had to do such menial work. He felt extremely depressed. Gu Yuanqing smiled, returned to the house, sat down cross-legged, and immersed himself in the Lingshan Trial. After falling into the Demon Realm, as his progress in cultivation gradually slowed down, he spent a little more time in the Lingshan Trial. After all, it would take some time to break through the Divine Realm. The Demon Realm was different from the Floating Realm, and he might face battles at any time. He needed to have a better understanding of his own strength, and also needed to hone some of the methods of the Dao Fire Realm. After he broke through the Dao Fire Realm, Li Miaoxuan naturally could no longer stop his progress. After all, the gap in realm was too big, and Gu Yuanqing's Dao connotation and rich true essence were not comparable to those of ordinary Dao Fire Realm cultivators. There were fewer opponents in the Daohuo Realm. Li Shian, Zuoqiu, Ji Dai, and three cultivators who had been to Beiquan Mountain many years ago became his opponents. Among them, only Zuo Qiu can compete with Gu Yuanqing. He is at the peak of Daohuo and is a disciple of a major cultivation sect. His skills are far beyond those of Li Shian and others. Even as Gu Yuanqing becomes more familiar with the enemy, he still loses more than he wins. Compared with him, even if we only talk about true essence, the two are evenly matched. In terms of Dao essence, Gu Yuanqing is slightly better. However, Gu Yuanqing, who has just entered the Dao Fire realm, still seems too immature, and many exquisite techniques need constant practice before they can be mastered. Zuo Qiu held a long sword in his hand, and every time he swung his sword, it would hit the weak point of Gu Yuanqing's true energy. Even with a powerful method like the Demon-Subduing Sword Formation, the opponent could find the flaw before the formation was set up. Gu Yuanqing was amazed at Zuo Qiu's strength, but he didn't know that the person captured in the Lingshan trial was simulating the other party's strongest state and was absolutely calm. Although it lacks some spirituality compared to real people and lowers the upper limit, it raises the lower limit to the limit. If Gu Yuanqing fought with the real Zuo Qiu, it would definitely not be as difficult as in the Lingshan trial. However, he was happy with it. If he didn't have such an opponent, how could he hone himself? An hour later, he withdrew from the Lingshan trial, silently sorted out what he had gained in his mind, and then started practicing again, practicing the skills. Dao fire ignited around his body, and most of his mind sank into the Dao fetus, becoming one with the Dao fetus, realizing the essence of the Dao, while the Dao fire continued to temper his body and mind. Another two hours passed before he came out of his cultivation state and entered the state of observing the mountain, warming his mind and comprehending the way of heaven and earth. When it was slightly dawn, he lost most of his consciousness and fell into a deep sleep. ……
Zhushan is the ancestral mountain of the iron-eating beast clan. There are all kinds of bamboo and bamboo shoots here, and they spend most of their energy on cultivating better bamboo. After all, for the iron-eating beast, eating is the most important thing! They can spend more than half of their time eating. This morning, just as the sky was getting light, two figures flew into the sky through the clouds. The iron-eating beast standing at the back was none other than the Bronze Gong Master who used to collect rent. At this moment, it was listening to the ancestor's teachings with its ears pricked up. "Xiao San, you must remember that collecting rent is a big deal. My clan entrusted this important task to you because you are smart and steady. Collecting rent is related to whether our people can have enough to eat. Look, the kid from Little Thirteen's family is clamoring to eat dragon and phoenix bamboo today, but we don't have any. How sad it is! How can our Iron-eating Clan grow stronger if we can't even guarantee food for our people? Therefore, you must remember your responsibilities." The Great Master of the Bronze Gong said solemnly: "Don't worry, ancestor. I have been slack this year, and I will definitely remember my mission. The dragon and phoenix bamboos were planted by the two-headed dragon, and I must take them back today." "As for the human race, you are usually quite smart, but why can't you get around it? Since he lives in our territory, he must pay rent. We can't break the rules. Otherwise, if the news gets out, who will pay rent? If the old guys like the Sky Fox and the Demon Ape find out, they will make fun of us. If the Iron-Eating Tribe can't even collect rent, it will be a big joke. Also, you have to remember that the human race is more cunning than the stinky foxes in Tianhu Mountain, so you must be careful when dealing with them." The Great Venerable Tongluo scratched his ear and said with a bitter face: "Ancestor, but that human race did not occupy our land, and I felt that he spoke very sincerely and had good intentions towards me." The Iron-Eating Ancestor said in a deep voice: "No matter what, since it is natural to pay rent in our territory, I came out with you today to teach you in person. Look carefully, these are all skills passed down from our ancestors. Watch how I collect rent!" Thanks to the two bosses Jinse Mu Nian Xiao Kan Shi Jian Fan Hua and Mo Yin Xi for the reward!
