Power is indeed an extremely beautiful wine.

This is true even for cultivators.

Because Wang Wanyi, the highest cultivator in Zifu, is the first of the three great masters in Jinhong Valley and the blood descendant of Patriarch Qingyangzi, the first cultivator in the Yue Kingdom.

Therefore, even though Qingyangzi never deliberately took care of the Wang family, the Wang family was still the number one monk family in Jinhong Valley.

As Wang Wanyi gradually gained a foothold in Lifeng Mountain, Shen Pingchuan, who originally held most of the power in Lifeng Mountain, left on a mission and never came back.

By the time Zhang Lie and other middle-level monks got the news, they had already reopened a spiritual vein newly captured by the sect.

This is a perfect cooperation between the Zongmen General Affairs Hall and Shen Pingchuan.

If the war continues, Shen Pingchuan will return to Tifeng Mountain after completing his mission to continue to assist Zuo Wang Wanyi. However, after a few years, Jinhong Valley won a great victory on the front line, and the entire sect's sphere of influence expanded significantly. The Zifu monks and the Foundation-building monks

The number has declined.

Under such circumstances, why would Shen Pingchuan come back to compete with Wang Wanyi for a fourth-level mid-grade spiritual vein?

He directly reoccupied a fourth-level high-grade spiritual vein that was close to the fifth level among the forces of the Yuanwangyue Sect that had been captured by the sect.

In such a newly created place, the original cultivating family is in panic all day long, like a frightened bird. A sophisticated high-level cultivator like Shen Pingchuan can subdue it with just a few tricks, and can even squeeze out a lot of profits to prepare for his own cultivation.

purpose.

Zhang Lie practiced the Five Virtues Taoism described in the Chapter of Embryo Transformation and Transformation. To practice this Taoism, it is best to practice the Five Elements Great Escape at the same time. The two help each other and serve as reference for each other.

But the Earthly Evil Sword Sutra, Fetus Transformation and Shapeshifting Zhang Lie have not been fully assembled in his hand. Where is the Five Elements Escape in the Taihao Golden Chapter?

Zhang Lie is not even sure whether this extraterrestrial book exists in this world, and there is no way to find it.

Therefore, Zhang Lie could only choose the Five Elements Escape Technique that existed in this world. He focused on Xu Bai, the Taoist Xu who was the most knowledgeable about Five Elements magic among the casual cultivators in Lifeng Mountain and had been selling Five Elements music for more than 20 years. For this reason,

He even did not hesitate to use the Five Virtues to seduce him.

However, Xu Bai was determined to keep his secrets to himself, and even though he was extremely itchy about the Five Elements Kung Fu scriptures in Zhang Lie's hand, he could bear it and refused to exchange Taoist techniques with Zhang Lie.

Until Zhang Lie was admitted to the mansion by Wang Wanyi, Shen Pingchuan opened another mansion, and Wang Wanyi became the only Purple Mansion monk in Lifeng Mountain.

Under such circumstances, to Zhang Lie's surprise, Xu Bai, the master of Xu Lao Dao who wrote the Five Elements score, took the initiative to come to Iron Guards to discuss with Zhang Lie.

Today, Zhang Lie has been in Lifeng Mountain for less than ten years and is less than forty years old. He is already the leader of the Iron Guards and even the master of Lifeng Mountain.

In the past, he was rumored to be a minor commander, but now the small character has been removed. Zhang Lie actually serves as the commander of the guard at Lifeng Mountain, because Wang Wanyi devotes herself to cultivating Taoism and doesn't care about these things at all.

Among the four major governors, Sun Jingxin, the commander-in-chief of the western region, followed Zhang Lie's lead. The commander-in-chief of the eastern and northern regions were both newcomers and could not compete with Zhang Lie, who had made outstanding military exploits and was extremely prestigious in a short period of time.

Therefore, for a long period of time, Zhang Lie indeed had the power to directly manage the entire Lifeng Mountain.

Xu Bai could resist the temptation of the Five Elements Scripture in Zhang Lie's hand, but he also married a wife and had children to build a family, but he could not resist the temptation of clearing the obstacles for his descendants.

In the Iron Guards, a waiter served the spiritual tea with neat movements.

Zhang Lie believes that the Iron Guards should have the atmosphere of the Iron Guards, so there are almost no female waiters in the Iron Guards now, and all are served by men. Women can join the Iron Guards if they want to, but they must be as Iron Guardsmen.

"It's hard to invite friends from Dao Xu. I wonder why you came here this time?"

Zhang Lie didn't know the purpose of veteran Taoist Xu Bai at this time. In the past few years, he had contacted Xu Bai several times and expressed his intention to exchange Taoist teachings, but he was rejected directly by the other party. Until this time, the other party took the initiative to come to his door.

"I can teach you all the five elements that I have studied all my life, but I need two foundation-building pills, and a total of four shops in Qingquanfang, Yuanfeng Town, and Dongdu County."

While talking, veteran Xu Bai took out a map of Sanchufang City and the locations of the four shops.

Zhang Lie reached out to take it and looked at it.

Those shops are easy to deal with, but two Foundation Establishment Pills are more difficult to deal with.

Although Zhang Lie has now established the Foundation and has not used the Foundation Establishment Pill, Zhang Lie also knows clearly that pills such as the Foundation Establishment Pill will always be one of the most important core resources of the sect.

Although the price is 10,000 good deeds/spiritual stones, in a sect with laws and regulations, there is a strict review system for redeeming foundation building pills:

Look at qualifications, look at age, look at background, look at the meritorious services made for the sect, and whether they are descendants of monks who died fighting for the sect.

This kind of thing related to a monk's path, every assignment even needs to be reviewed by the sect's ancestor.

Zhang Lie directly obtained the Foundation Building Pill once, but he completed a sect task directly assigned by the Golden Pill Patriarch, which was an extremely special situation.

What's more, Xu Bai's lion opened its mouth wide, and there were only two in it.

"You can't let your junior join the sect? This will make it easier for me to operate. You also know how eye-catching the Foundation Establishment Pill is, how can it be spread so easily?"

"No, Fellow Daoist Zhang. Of the two families of my Taoist companion and I, only Dehou has good qualifications. From now on, the two families will have to rely on his protection and care. I will send him to the sect. From now on,

I have not seen these relatives for many years, and I am afraid that he will become estranged from these relatives and will no longer be willing to take care of these people after he has achieved success."

"When I was able to become a Taoist, it was all because of my uncles and mines who worked as miners and spiritual husbands and lived frugally to provide for me today. I feel sorry for my son, but I cannot let the descendants of these uncles and uncles end up without fate."

"...Fellow Daoist Xu, you really know how to make things difficult for others. In this way, I will prepare a foundation-building pill for you first. You can ask nephew Xu Xian to take it and reach the foundation-building realm. If it succeeds, I will make the profit and I will replenish it for you.

If the two thousand spirit stones are not enough, I will prepare a second foundation-building pill for nephew Xu Xian. In addition, the requirements of your shops will also be reduced."

Zhang Lie indeed attached great importance to the master Xu Bai who produced the Five Elements Score, otherwise he would not have accepted such a huge price.

After the two parties negotiated, Xu Bai called his fourth son Xu Dehou the next day and made a blood oath contract with his son's blood.

This was Zhang Lie's special request. Xu Bai was already old. Many times he would sacrifice his life for profit, but Zhang Lie could be sure that he would not make fun of his son's life.

Especially for a monk whose path has been cut off, his bloodline descendants are the continuation of his life.

After Jinhonggu captured the Wanyue Sect, because there were internal and external traitors, the remnants of the Wanyue Sect could not completely destroy the elixir garden.

This allowed Jinhong Valley to obtain many long-lasting elixirs, several of which can be used to refine the main medicine of the Foundation Building Pill.

Therefore, in the past two years, Jinhong Valley has refined relatively more Foundation Building Pills.

However, Zhang Lie did not directly use the power in his hands, or asked Wang Wanyi. He only sent people to investigate and count the monks from the sect who had applied for the Foundation Establishment Pill in the past two years.

Then he visited one by one, and finally exchanged the Foundation Establishment Pill from a sect monk with a weak Taoist heart at a premium of 7,000 spirit stones.

This is not an easy thing. For many Qi cultivators, they are willing to spend everything they have in exchange for a foundation-building pill.

This transaction with Xu Bai cost Zhang Lie nearly 30,000 spiritual stones. This amount of resources was not a small amount for a Zifu monk.

However, Zhang Lie believed that it was worthwhile to exchange this resource for the lifelong efforts of a monk who was proficient in the Five Elements Foundation Building Stage. Especially when the other person's lifetime efforts would be of great benefit to him.

Using spirit stones to save yourself practice time and improve your practice efficiency is very consistent with the behavior pattern of sword cultivators.

Xu Bai's own five-element notation and the five-element notation circulated outside are of course very different.
