Immortal Mansion Royal Beast

Chapter 552: Selecting a Cave

In the following days, Fang Qingyuan had been drinking with Chu Hongshang in his spare time. Through Chu Hongshang, Fang Qingyuan had a deeper understanding of Qiyun Sect, Qiyun City, and Tian Chang.

Originally, Fang Qingyuan thought that Qiyun City was very strong, but he did not have a clear understanding of how strong Qiyun was.

But now, the closer he was to Qi Yun, the more Fang Qingyuan could feel this pressure that was like a vast ocean.

The Qiyun sect currently has nine godsend monks, including one each in Qidong, Qiyun, and Qinancheng. The one guarding Qidongcheng is Patriarch Teng, the one guarding Qinancheng is Nangong Mu, and the one guarding Qiyuncheng is Tian Chang.

In addition to these three cities, in the Qiyun sect, there is a Five Peaks Master who is responsible for teaching and managing the sect's five elements spiritual root cultivators, a Transmission Peak Master who is responsible for other spiritual root cultivators, a Heaven and Earth Peak Master, a General Affairs Peak Master, a Law Enforcement Peak Master, and a Secret Realm Master who guards the seventh-level spiritual land necessary for advancement to the God Transformation Realm. There are a total of nine God Transformation cultivators.

If we add in the Jade Rabbit who used the excuse of going to Qiyun to recuperate a few years ago, that means there are ten godsend cultivators in total. Looking at the entire cultivation world, except for the Beast Taming Sect, Qiyun has the most godsend cultivators.

In the Beast Taming Sect, companion beasts at the Divine Transformation level are also counted among them. If we put this aside and only consider the Divine Transformation cultivators, there are no more people than Qi Yun.

Tian Chang is the last cultivator to be promoted to the Divine Transformation stage in the Qiyun Sect in the past few thousand years. He was born in Tiandi Peak, and the abbot of Tiandi Peak had taught him, so Tian Chang had always regarded himself as a disciple.

And Fang Qingyuan joining his school was definitely a strong move for Qi Yun.

After Fang Qingyuan had only been bothering Nan Chumen for a few days, he tactfully said goodbye, otherwise Chu Duo would have eaten him. Whenever they met, Chu Duo always had a gloomy face and looked at him unfriendlyly.

Fang Qingyuan knew what Chu Duo was thinking. It was impossible for him to say that he had no feelings towards the stunning beauty Chu Hongshang.

But Fang Qingyuan also knew that Chu Hongshang was not suitable for him. The reason was that Chu Hongshang was too strong and too self-centered, like a ball of ever-changing fire. Fang Qingyuan felt that he could not control himself.

It's good to maintain this kind of friendship for now. Fang Qingyuan doesn't want to take it a step further at the moment. It's unnecessary to think about these things before he has a baby.

Fang Qingyuan knew what he should do most at the moment, so after coming out of Nanchumen, he drove Yinbao and flew to Qinan City immediately.

Above the clouds, the sun was shining brightly. Fang Qingyuan lay comfortably on Yin Bao's back, enjoying the rare moment.

The trip to Baishan was successfully resolved. Lechuan gave birth to a baby, Sikong Zhou gave birth, the sword order given by Tian Chang was not used, and Kaer Shou did not have to pay for spirit stones himself. Basically, these were all good things for him.

Only the matter of Xiong Feng was beyond Fang Qingyuan's expectations, but when he thought about it carefully, even if it didn't happen this time, there would be a next time. If the foundation was not right, Xiong Feng would leave sooner or later.

There are still twenty years before the next war. During this period, I can go to Qiyun City for retreat, concentrate on achieving the Nascent Soul stage, and then start a new chapter.

You can't just limit your horizons to this tiny place called Baishan. The world of cultivation here is very large, and there are still many places you need to explore.

Moreover, there must be a technique in the Qiyun Sect that he can practice. After leaving the Beast Taming Sect, Fang Qingyuan has very few options for practicing.

This also resulted in Fang Qingyuan's means of fighting the enemy being very weak, unlike other Jindan cultivators who had various magical powers.

Although he later obtained the Mirage Dragon Sword Scripture from the Illusion Sword League and the Xuanli Sword from the Baishan Sword Sect, Fang Qingyuan was not a sword cultivator after all, and could not bring out their greatest power.

What sword cultivators cultivate is not the golden elixir, but the sword embryo. What they comprehend is not the theory of elixir, but the sword intent. Fang Qingyuan formed the elixir first and then practiced the sword scripture, so naturally he is not a pure sword cultivator.

If Fang Qingyuan could break the pill and refine the sword embryo, and completely step into the way of swordsmanship, he would naturally be able to unleash the full power of the Xuanli Sword Sutra, instead of being like he is now, where the sword moves he displays are not taken seriously by him, whether it is Zhou Chaoxian or Gao Lang.

Fang Qingyuan was naturally unwilling to become a sword cultivator. The path of sword cultivation was not suitable for him. With the Immortal Palace, he did not need to follow this path of advancement with no retreat.

Also, swordsmanship is not the strongest in this world, otherwise the Qinglian Sword Sect would be able to suppress Qi Yun, instead of being ranked only in the top five as it is now.

Moreover, according to the upper limit of the Mirage Dragon Sword Sutra, one can only cultivate to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul at most, which is inconsistent with Fang Qingyuan's expectations.

He wanted to acquire a technique that could be practiced to the level of a god, so as to truly create a fighting style that suited him.

Although the Immortal Palace can quickly improve his realm, the means of defending against enemies must be learned from the main practice. Otherwise, relying solely on the Five Elements Escape Technique and the God-Slaying Spear is very useful against Jindan cultivators, but as the realm improves, it becomes very common among Yuanying cultivators.

Among Nascent Soul cultivators, the proportion of those who know how to use the art of escape has increased sharply, and various means to counter the art of escape have also emerged one after another. No matter whether it is Gao Lang's Anti-Five Elements Escape Order or Zhou Chaoxian's space-vibrating skill, the art of escape is no longer a deciding factor.

This time, after entering Qiyun, I must practice steadily to lay an extremely solid foundation and make up for what I lack in the Jindan stage.

All in all, Fang Qingyuan had only practiced in the Jindan stage for fifty to sixty years. The result of advancing to a higher level too quickly was that his foundation was not solid.

This time, Fang Qingyuan decided to learn a lesson. Even if he had an immortal palace, he would not be able to break through the realm so quickly. Insufficient accumulation and forcing it to improve would only do harm.

In Qinan City, Fang Qingyuan did not choose to stay. Before entering the city, he put the silver treasure into the immortal palace, changed his appearance, turned into an unfamiliar Jindan cultivator, and went straight to the teleportation hall here.

There is a direct super-large teleportation array between Qinan City and Qiyun City. This kind of teleportation array is only available in the three fifth-level cities of the Qiyun Sect.

In this world, only the Qiyun Sect excels in the technology of large-scale teleportation arrays. Therefore, when other sects want to build a teleportation array, they usually come to Qiyun to purchase it and ask professional array masters to set it up.

This time, Fang Qingyuan was not stopped by anyone. After handing over the spirit stone, he waited for a while and was teleported to Qiyun Immortal City along with the others.

After getting rid of the discomfort in his body, Fang Qingyuan found an inn in the city to rest for a night. After he recovered and packed up, he went to the City Lord's Mansion in the center of Qiyun City to ask for a meeting with Tian Chang.

A Jindan cultivator had the audacity to ask to meet Patriarch Tian Chang. If people who didn't know the inside story knew about this, they would definitely laugh at Fang Qingyuan for overestimating his own abilities.

However, Tian Chang was strict in managing his household, and the disciples on duty did not ridicule Fang Qingyuan. After Fang Qingyuan took out Tian Chang's warrant, he was invited in and was entertained by a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Friend Fang, the ancestor is currently practicing, so it is inconvenient for him to see you these days. Please wait for a while."

The one who entertained Fang Qingyuan was a middle-aged cultivator who looked somewhat like Tian Chang. His name was Tian Jin, and he was in the early Nascent Soul stage. He was one of the only two Nascent Soul cultivators in the Tian family.

Tian Jin's attitude towards Fang Qingyuan was very kind, without the subtle arrogance that Qi Yun monk had towards other outsiders.

Fang Qingyuan's previous battle with Zhou Chaoxian in front of Qiyun City was not in vain. Tian Jin had also gone out of the city to see the sword mark on Fang Qingyuan, so he was very polite to Fang Qingyuan, who was still a Jindan, and no longer regarded him as a Jindan junior. Fang Qingyuan proved himself with his fighting power.

Fang Qingyuan listened to Tian Jin's words and realized that Tian Chang really had no time to see him. As his realm deepened, the time a cultivator would spend in seclusion would be longer.

It is common for a Jindan cultivator to spend ten days or half a month to comprehend the world, while for a Shenhua cultivator to comprehend the world, the time spent is only one or two months.

It is impossible for Tian Chang to break through the level just because of me. My current self is not worthy of Tian Chang doing so.

Seeing Fang Qingyuan nod, Tian Jin smiled again:

"The ancestor has instructed before that if you come, you should stay in the city lord's mansion temporarily. The fifth-level spiritual land cannot be used by you now, but you can choose a fourth-level cave as your future residence."

This was one of the benefits that Tian Chang had promised to Fang Qingyuan, a fourth-tier spiritual cave residence located in the City Lord's Mansion.

Qi Yun's City Lord's Mansion occupies a large area of ​​about several dozen square kilometers, and the interior is expanded with the void formation, so you can't just look at the appearance.

The fifth-level spiritual land of Qiyun City is located in the City Lord’s Mansion. The fourth-level spiritual cave where Fang Qingyuan can practice cultivation is also the location of its branch.

A fourth-level cave is extremely valuable, especially one located in the City Lord's Mansion. This is a resource that is not open to the public. It only has spirit stones but no identity, so it is not even worthy of the Tian family's attention, let alone the idea of ​​practicing in a place like the City Lord's Mansion.

"Also, you were the first generation headmaster appointed by the Great Zhou Academy. If you want to join Qiyun, you must give up this identity and you are not allowed to claim this identity in the future."

Fang Qingyuan nodded, indicating that this was as it should be. The identity of the head of the sect had given him many conveniences when he was young, but now that the situation had changed, such an identity seemed inappropriate.

Moreover, after experiencing the siege of Qingyuan Sect by three armies, the way the Da Zhou Academy handled the situation made Fang Qingyuan no longer have the slightest attachment to this identity.

As his cultivation level increased, his perspective on things also became higher. The Da Zhou Academy, which was originally thought to be high and mighty, also revealed its embarrassing situation under its gorgeous robes.

"Thank you, Senior Tian, ​​for clearing up my doubts. This is a small gift from me. I hope you will accept it."

Fang Qingyuan took out the third-level spiritual material from the Immortal Mansion and prepared to give it as a gift, but Tian Jin declined with a smile. It was unclear whether he looked down on it or was just his true nature.

"You and I will be working together in the future, how can I accept your gift? There are so few of us in this branch, why should we be so distant?"

After being rejected by Tian Jin, Fang Qingyuan tactfully put away the gift. Since he hadn't figured out Tian Jin's preferences yet, it would be better for him to be cautious.

Tian Chang's faction of gods is not very influential in Qiyun. Although Tian Chang is the lord of Qiyun City, he does not have much real power, so he does not have many resources.

According to Chu Hongshang, the power center of the Qiyun Sect is in the main mountain, on the Shuwu Peak, and Tian Chang is the mayor of Qiyun City. Although he has a high position, his influence on the Qiyun Sect is not as great as Fang Qingyuan imagined.

It was because Qiyun City and Qiyun Zongshan were too close to each other. Tian Chang could neither take charge of everything in the city like Nangong Mu, nor could he, like Patriarch Teng, rely on his seniority to make decisions about the affairs of the sect.

As a newly promoted god of transformation, Tian Chang should have been sent out to become a pioneer, similar to Nangong Mu, but for some reason, Tian Chang became the lord of Qiyun City and had a place to stay.

But Qiyun City does not entirely belong to Tian Chang, because there are too many deep-rooted conflicts of interest in this city, and the industries of other Huashen factions are also spread throughout Qiyun City. Therefore, Qiyun City belongs to the entire Qiyun faction, not the city of Tian Chang's family.

Every family has its own difficulties. Tian Chang is not as glorious as Fang Qingyuan had thought before. Otherwise, with his status as a god, even if Fang Qingyuan is gifted, he would not have offered so many benefits to recruit him.

After all, Fang Qingyuan hasn't formed a baby yet. No matter how good his talent is, he is just a Jindan cultivator now.

"Xiaoyi, please ask Sect Master Fang to go down and rest."

Tian Jin clapped his hands and called over a female Jindan cultivator, asking her to take Fang Qingyuan to choose his own cave. Tian Jin didn't have to follow Fang Qingyuan personally for such trivial matters.

After bidding farewell to Tian Jin, Fang Qingyuan followed the gentle-looking female Jindan cultivator to the back mountain. Through conversations along the way, Fang Qingyuan learned the identity of this female cultivator.

This woman is the manager of the fourth-level spiritual cave. Her name is Tian Yi. She is in the middle stage of the Golden Core cultivation. She is a direct descendant of the Tian family and has a very high status.

"Sect Master Fang, there are eighteen fourth-grade spiritual caves in the back mountain of my Tian family, including four high-grade caves, six medium-grade caves, and eight low-grade caves. Currently, the high-grade and medium-grade caves are all full, and only three low-grade caves are still vacant. I wonder if Sect Master Fang can accept them?"

Tian Yi acted in a businesslike manner, and the other party Qingyuan was neither enthusiastic nor contemptuous.

Fang Qingyuan didn't care about Tian Yi's attitude. It was normal that there were no high-grade and medium-grade caves left. The fourth-grade lower-grade cave was enough for him to practice. What's more, he didn't need to practice now. It was enough to have a place to adjust his state and settle down.

"The fourth-order lower grade is enough. Thank you, Fellow Daoist Tian."

Tian Yi nodded slightly, then took Fang Qingyuan to a magnificent hall.

There were no other outsiders in the hall. In the spacious hall, there was only a miniature mountain floating in the air.

"There are currently three remaining fourth-order lower-grade caves with the following spiritual energy concentrations and properties. According to the rules of the formation, at these moments, the spiritual energy in these three caves changes to... "

Tian Yi carefully told Fang Qingyuan the differences between the three caves, and then asked Fang Qingyuan to choose one.

"I choose this one. Please record it, Fellow Daoist Tian."

Fang Qingyuan finally chose the place with the richest spiritual energy, with a spiritual power concentration of 2,700 to 2,800 points, which is four times higher than the Qingyuan Sect's less than 600 points.

The fourth-level cave dwelling is used by Jindan cultivators for cultivation. This treatment is already above the standard. Because even if the Jindan cultivator has achieved perfection in his golden elixir, the spiritual energy absorbed by his body during his daily cultivation cannot reach the middle line of the fourth-level lower-grade cave dwelling.

After Fang Qingyuan made his choice, Tian Yi followed the procedure and gave Fang Qingyuan various identification documents, and then took Fang Qingyuan to the front of the cave.

"The entire back mountain is controlled by a fifth-order formation arranged by the ancestor himself. No one can enter without a token. This is your token, Sect Master Fang. You must not lose it."

After Fang Qingyuan used his spiritual sense to embed the token given by Tian Yi into his own trace, and after some manipulation by Tian Yi, he put it into his immortal residence.

Now, he also owns his own real estate, a fourth-grade lower-grade cave dwelling in Qiyun City, which cannot be bought with spirit stones alone. It is also a symbol of status.

I broke my promise, which is embarrassing, woohoo.

I overestimated myself. I'm too sleepy and want to sleep. I'll make up for it tomorrow morning. If I can't make up for it, I'll be a dog.

And Fang Qingyuan is about to form a baby, in just these two or three chapters.
