  Chapter 3 Predecessors' Cave House

"In addition to the huge initial investment in refining equipment and alchemy as uncle said, it also requires the guidance of a famous teacher. It may take five or six years to find out on your own. Maybe you haven't really started yet. How can you make a living with this. But this Lingzhi master watched it today , there is a lot to do, let's start with it!"

  Because of Xuanmozhu's relationship, the Bai family attaches great importance to Lingzhi, and there are no less than a hundred volumes of books related to Lingzhi in the clan.

  Especially all kinds of spiritual bamboos have a complete set of cultivation methods, and even how to stimulate the spiritual bamboos to advance them has sorted out a variety of methods.

  Once the ordinary ink bamboo becomes a low-grade black ink bamboo, a whole plant can be sold for thirty-five spirit stones. And after more than ten years of cultivation, there is a very small probability that Xuanmo Bamboo will be promoted again and become a first-tier middle-grade spiritual plant, and that one plant can be exchanged for one hundred and fifty spiritual stones.

  Without him, the first-rank mid-grade Xuanmo Bamboo can already be used to refine the lowest-grade flying swords, and its value has naturally skyrocketed.

Even though the refined black bamboo sword is inferior among the first-order flying swords and has the disadvantage of being relatively fragile compared to metal flying swords, it is still one of the best-selling specialties of the Bai family. It was the Black Bamboo Flying Sword.

  Anyone who asks the most common magic weapon of a flying sword can sell for about 500 spirit stones in the Fangshi shop set up by Qingfengmen.

   Switching to ordinary casual cultivators, lucky enough to make it to the late stage of Qi refining, there are many monks who are reluctant to buy a flying sword.

  And on top of the first-order middle-grade Xuanmo bamboo, there is a one in a million chance of this spiritual bamboo to mutate, but the Bai family's hundreds of years of cultivation have only happened a few times. Five times it became the top-grade tortoise shell bamboo, and two times it became the middle-grade Shengyin bamboo.

  There are so many monks in the Bai family, who have been cultivated and planted from generation to generation, and there are auxiliary spells such as Yimu Qingshenju, there are only a few recorded mutations.

  The top-grade tortoiseshell bamboo of the first rank is nothing more than that. The second-rank spiritual plant and the first-rank spiritual plant are not the same concept. Although there is only a small rank difference, the value is very different.

   What's more, Shengyin bamboo is a very rare spiritual bamboo, which can be used as the main material for refining flying swords or spiritual weapons.

   Of the two mutated Sacred Sound Bamboos that appeared in the history of the Bai family, one of them sold for a sky-high price of 4,000 Lingshi as the finale at the Fangshi auction.

  The remaining plant was regarded as a family heirloom by the Bai family, and it has been planted safely and steadily in the center of the clan's land with the strongest aura.

   "Two yuan a year, 4000 yuan of spiritual stones, relying on subsistence allowances, it will take a total of two thousand years. Well, the job of Lingzhi teacher is quite lucrative!"

There is a volume of books spread out in front of Bai Zichen, which is the practice secret book of Yimu Qingshenshu. It was originally only a few hundred words plus a few pictures, but there are many notes added by later generations in the narration , are all the cultivation experience of the seniors of the Bai family who have read this volume of secrets. All kinds of comments in tiny prints add up to no less than ten thousand words, covering almost all the narrations.

It is strange to say that Yimu Qingshenshu is such a unique and miraculous auxiliary spell. Although it is not beneficial to cultivation or fighting skills, it can help Lingzhi on the way. After a long time, many families around have coveted it. He tried his best to get the secret book.

  As the saying goes, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. The soft ones are marriage and marriage, and the hard ones are kidnapping and assassination. The secrets of Yimuqing's magic skills are inevitably leaked out.

   But it is rumored that no matter how many people in the family who have acquired the Yimu Qingshen magic have practiced this spell, they will have no clue.

  Either it was impossible to get started at all, or it took a lot of time. The effect of Yimu Qingshen Art is far less than imagined, and it can't exert the magical effect in the hands of the Bai family. After thinking about it, I can only think that only the Bai family can practice this unique spell successfully.

   Although this situation is rare, it is not impossible. There is a rumor that there is a bloodline spell that can only be practiced by the bloodline descendants of the founder.

  After this incident, these families began to adopt gentle tactics, regarding the daughters of the Bai family as sweet pastries, and came to propose marriage one after another, or recruited the children of the Bai family as son-in-laws.

Since Yimu Qingshenju is an excellent spell in the eyes of all the immortal cultivators, of course Bai Zichen would not enter Baoshan and return empty-handed, so he immediately made this spell the foundation of his way, and prepared to use it a few years ago. Years to do some research.

  This technique is not a high-grade technique. According to what Bai Jiuan said, even a monk in the early stage of Qi refining can perform it three or five times a day after getting started. The effect depends on the depth of mana and the degree of intensive study of this technique.

Holding a thick book, Bai Zichen studied it for three to five days in a row. From being confused at the beginning to gradually gaining a little understanding, he had a clue when explaining the operation of mana according to the notes on the secret book. A faint emerald light flickered, but it was a pity that it went out in an instant.

   "Am I quite talented in spell cultivation?"

  Bai Zichen's spirit is greatly boosted. If he can master the Yimu Qingshen Art within seven days, he will be ranked in the top three among the members of the Bai family in the past, and the probability of cultivating advanced spiritual plants in the future will greatly increase.

It's a pity that the next progress made his joy not last for a few days. The faint emerald light lasted for more than ten days without any change, and he still couldn't take the last step to complete the Yimuqing magic, which made Bai Zichen Expectations are getting lower and lower.

   On the twenty-seventh day, he began to wonder whether because of time travel, the inner soul was not a descendant of the ancestor of the Bai family, so he couldn't learn this auxiliary spell of spiritual planting at all.

   "Brother Chen, come quickly, there is something important in the family, don't stay at home!" A little fat man rushed out of the house and shouted at the top of his voice.

   "Bai Ying, what are you doing yelling?"

  Bai Zichen frowned and walked out of the house. It had been more than a month since he had completed the Yimu Qingshen Art.

  In his previous life, what he thought of as cultivating immortals was Yujian Qingming, picking the stars and taking the moon, instead of being stuck with an auxiliary spell and having a headache.

  If it weren't for the soul of an adult living in his body, he would have been like the little fat man, chasing fish and chasing dogs all day long, so he couldn't bear to think hard.

  Bai Ying, a chubby boy, is about the same age as Bai Zichen, and his parents are both monks in the mid-stage of Qi refining, so he also lived in the clan early after the detection of the spiritual root.

  This year, the large-scale testing of mortal spirit roots has not yet started. There are not many boys of the same age in the clan.

   "Brother Chen is really a big deal this time, hurry up and go to the main peak with me to watch the excitement, my father said when he came back yesterday, the patriarch will hold a family meeting in the next two days!"

  Father Bai is in charge of a caravan in the clan. He mainly purchases a large number of mortal supplies and a part of the Bai family’s output to trade with other Xiuxian families every year. Therefore, there are many people outside, so it is not surprising that they can know some important news in advance.

   "The whole clan meeting? Is there any elder who wants to try to build a foundation, or is another tortoise shell bamboo born in the clan?"

  Hearing that the whole clan meeting was held, Bai Zichen's face turned serious. Even if the monks in the Qi refining period retreat for several months at a time, it is normal, so this kind of family meeting that requires more than 80% of the whole clan's monks to attend will not happen once in a few years.

  Anyway, he saw in the manuscripts of the predecessors on the bookshelf that it was basically held only when such a major event occurred that would affect the direction of the Bai family for decades to come.

  He mentioned that the two may be on the good side, but it is also possible that the family is in big trouble.

"Neither, my father said that last month, a few casual cultivators discovered a former cave in the mountains. Judging from the layout of the formation, at least it was left over from the foundation-building period monks, and it may even be the cave of the Jindan Daxiu. Currently, the entire Montenegro The monks in the county are rushing there, it will be a great opportunity!"

   "Predecessor Dongfu!"

  Bai Zichen's eyes lit up. The ancestor of the Bai family was able to build the foundation back then with the resources left by a casual cultivator hundreds of years ago. And this kind of story often happens in the Montenegro Mountains. But when it came time to hold a general meeting of the whole clan, it could be seen that the clan had already verified the authenticity of this matter.

   Gongfa!

  Treasure!

  Elixir!

   Every time a similar incident occurs, it will muddy the pool in Heishan County, countless monks will fight and fight, and finally one or two lucky people will be born.

   What's more, the Dongfu, which is suspected to be overhauled by Jindan, is only five or six days away from the Bai family's land. No matter what the Bai family thinks, it is impossible to stay out of this matter.
