Tianjiu Suo sat on a boulder, closed his eyes and meditated, letting his spiritual consciousness sneak into his Dantian.
There are almost no monks going to Elder Peak from the mountain road. Those who want to go to Elder Peak are all high-level monks. They are either flying with swords or riding various flying magic weapons. Only an alien like Tianjiu has no choice but to go on foot.
Elder Peak is sent to death.
After thinking about this, Tianjiu felt that it was very safe here.
There is nothing strange in the Dantian, but at the entrance and exit of the Dantian, a trace of milky white spiritual energy gently covers the entrance of the Dantian like a gauze. Every time the spiritual power is used, the spiritual energy in the Dantian is like hitting a solid stone wall.
After being bounced back by the white gauze, less than one-tenth of the spiritual energy was squeezed out of the Dantian. This meant that his Tianjiu spiritual energy could not exert one-tenth of its original strength.
He tried to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Fortunately, the absorbed spiritual energy passed through the meridians and entered the Dantian smoothly. The veil did not block it in the slightest. In other words, he could still practice, but the spiritual energy could only enter smoothly, and
Can't get out smoothly.
It wasn't until the white fish belly appeared in the east that Tianjiu returned to Tiandu Fengfang City angrily.
For half the night, he tried various methods, but still could not get rid of the veil. Instead, he felt indescribably comfortable by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. At the same time, the spiritual power in his body surged, and he faintly felt the impact of Qi Refining Nine.
layer gateway.
He found, dumbfounded, that the effect of practicing on the boulder halfway up the Elder Peak was even better than eating a spiritual pig. He was like a fat pig that could only eat but couldn't poop, and his Dantian was really suffocated.
Through careful analysis, he roughly understood that the reason why the fifth master did this was probably to embarrass him, making him unable to pass Xiaobi and enter the inner gate, so that he would be less of an uncertain factor.
The law of survival in the world of immortality: always stifle threats in a state of enlightenment.
Poison, really poison!
Knowing the whole story, Tianjiu is no longer so afraid. Although the tulle at Dantiankou is annoying, it is not fatal. Give him time, he will definitely find a way to get rid of it. But now, he can only go and be a pawn.
He is a grandson, and it may be much harder for him to face the upcoming competition.
As soon as he entered the entrance of Fangshi, Tianjiu couldn't help but be stunned by the sight in front of him.
In the market, there were already many monks who had arrived early, wandering in twos and threes in the market.
These monks are of all kinds, including disciples from Huachen Sect, disciples from other sects, and more casual cultivators with different costumes. Most shops also opened their doors early, and there are some casual cultivators.
The monk who looked like a monk was sitting in front of the shop, yawning long and inviting the monks who passed by. At first glance, these people were businessmen who had been doing business for a long time.
Tianjiu even discovered that in many shops along the street, low-level monks from Danshan Cloud Pavilion, Qianji Sect, and Tianyi Sect appeared one after another. In the vertical streets, scattered cultivators appeared again.
Street stall.
Tiandu Fengfang City has really come back to life?!
With great doubts, Tianjiu hurried to Tianxing Pavilion.
In front of Tianxing Pavilion, people were coming and going, but no one was standing to welcome guests.
Entering the hall, the noisy and chaotic sounds of transactions can be heard. Behind the counter, there are a group of beautiful young monks, most of whom are on the first or second level of Qi Refining, who are busy. Some are introducing the functions of magical instruments to the monks, and some are bargaining.
, some are even flirting and getting close to the guests.
Tianjiu bared his teeth and was about to go up to the second floor. A beautiful female cultivator on the seventh level of Qi Refining quickly blocked his way.
"Brother, the second floor is the trading place for monks above the ninth level of Qi Refining. You can't go up without a pass." The female cultivator said with a smile.
"No way? I can't go up either?" Tianjiu blinked and narrowed his eyes, pointed at his nose, and asked with a bit of grit.
Within a month, Tiandu Fengfang City had completely changed. It seemed that he had no place in Tianxing Pavilion. No one could recognize him as the real backstage boss.
"Yes, you cannot go up without Chief Gui's warrant or Pavilion Master Mi's pass." The female cultivator continued to say with a smile.
"Manager Gui? Pavilion Master Mi? Are they Gui Xiaoxiao and Mi Yurong?" Tianjiu asked in confusion.
"Yes, our manager Gui is now on the second floor to receive the reception, and our Pavilion Master Mi is in charge of the third floor." The female cultivator seemed to be very unhappy that Tianjiu called the two immediate superiors by their first names, and her beautiful face drooped, a little unhappy.
said.
"The second floor generally only accepts monks who are above the ninth level of Qi Refining, and the third floor is at least the foundation building level. I am the steward of the hall. If senior brother is interested in any treasures, just give me the orders."
"Oh! That's it! Beauty, how long have you been here? How come I haven't seen you before? Can't you just do it for the convenience?" Tianjiu Thief asked with a smile.
"Huh! I've been here for so long and I've never seen you before. Which sect are you from?" The female cultivator's face was covered with frost and she glanced at the guards in the distance. Two guards at the fifth level of Qi Refining, alone
Holding the magic sword on his waist, he surrounded him with high security.
Tianjiu laughed a little in his heart, but when he saw this new scene, he didn't feel angry at all. After thinking about it, he took out a golden token and secretly waved it in front of the female cultivator's eyes.
"Can you look at this token?"
"What kind of broken token is this?"
"Broken token?" Tianjiu almost fell down.
"That's the Golden Core Order! The Golden Core Order issued by Uncle Wei Qiyin!" A guard muttered in a low voice.
"Golden Core Order? How come you have the Huachen Sect's Golden Core Order?" The female cultivator's face turned pale.
"Haha, it's nothing. Uncle Wei lent this to me for fun. Beauty, I've been practicing outside for a long time. You may not recognize me. Do you think you can let me go up there?" Tianjiu plucked his ears and said arrogantly.
said.
"etc!"
The female cultivator waved to the surrounding guards, then raised her hand to block Tianjiu's body, then took out a transmission talisman, mumbled a few words, and threw it into the air. The transmission talisman turned into a silver light and shot into the air.
upstairs.
After several breaths, a white figure flew down from the upstairs and landed in front of Tianjiu.
Tianjiu glanced sideways and saw that the little beauty in white palace clothes was staring at him stupidly, with tears streaming down her face.
"Brother Tian, you are finally back!" Mi Yurong bit her lip and said softly.
Tianjiu blinked, walked over, raised his hand and patted her shoulder.
"Hehehehe, Senior Sister Xiaomi, I haven't seen you for a few days. You have grown taller, more beautiful, and your cultivation has improved. More importantly, your official position has become bigger and bigger, and you have become the master of the pavilion here!"
"You...!" Mi Yurong's eyes turned red, she threw herself into Tianjiu's arms, and cried loudly.
"Huh?" Tianjiu was caught off guard and glanced down at the monks in the hall.
The whole hall suddenly became silent, with dozens of pairs of eyes looking at Tianjiu curiously. Especially the female cultivator who just stopped Tianjiu, her eyes almost fell to the ground. I don't know what is going on.
"Xiaomi, Xiaomi! It's in public, please pay attention to the impact!" Tianjiu continued to pat Mi Yurong on the shoulder while transmitting messages.
"Hmph! You liar, where did you die? Why didn't you tell me? That goblin up there didn't tell me anything. I thought you were dead!" Mi Yurong ignored Tianjiu and rubbed it on Tianjiu's chest.
She was crying, but at least she was transmitting the message to him, and others couldn't hear what she said.
Tianjiu twitched his mouth, and he clearly felt that Xiaomi's arms were holding him tighter.
"Mi Yatou, how long are you going to hold your big brother Tian? Do you want her to carry you up?" A clear and sweet voice came from the second staircase.
"Damn goblin, I need you to take care of it!" Mi Yurong turned her head and shouted loudly at the people upstairs, and at the same time she released one arm.
The people in the hall became even more confused.
"Hahaha!" Tianjiu scratched the back of his head, broke away from Mi Yurong's hand a little stiffly, then waved and smiled at the crowd in the hall, and said: "Everyone is free, everyone is free! Everyone, all the transactions here today are
, all 20% off! Hehehehe!”
After saying that, Tianjiu turned around and ran upstairs like flying.
"Pavilion Master, who is this person?" The beautiful steward in the hall asked in a low voice to Xiaomi who was still gritting his teeth.
"He is Tianjiu, your real boss. Xiaohe, you have to remember this." Mi Yurong lightly stomped her foot, turned around and rushed upstairs.
"Hey, hey, hey! Pavilion Master Mi, don't leave in a hurry, does this 20% discount count?" A male cultivator in the hall shouted loudly.
"Of course it counts, 30% off. Today's sale is 30% off, and the other 10% off is mine!" Mi Yurong said as she went upstairs without looking back.
The hall exploded instantly, and the sounds of transactions came and went...
Beside the escalator on the second floor, Gui Xiaoxiao stood tall and graceful in a lotus-colored palace dress. Her curvy figure was still as graceful as ever, and her pretty face lacked a bit of the charm of the past, like a blooming pink flower.
Lotus.
"Brother, you're back!" Gui Xiaoxiao said a little awkwardly.
At the same time, she was very confused. The coercion emanating from Tianjiu was very weak, but the aura was very strong. It was completely different from a month ago. Before, she could be said to be intimidated by the power of the soul contract and did not dare to attack him.
There was no disrespect at all, and now, she felt that the other person in front of her was like a sealed volcano.
"Well, Xiao Xiao, you are dressed well. You are much more dignified than before in Wanbao Pavilion." Tianjiu glanced at Gui Xiaoxiao for a few times, and blinked a few times unconsciously.
"It seems that things are changing with each passing day here!"
"Thank you for the compliment, brother! Brother, what do you think of the private room on the second floor?" Gui Xiaoxiao asked, pointing to the inside of the second floor.
On the second floor, the original small private rooms separated by light screens have disappeared, replaced by dozens of elegant rooms separated by jade-colored screens. The screens are carved from natural jade, with carved beams and painted buildings on them, which are ingenious. Each private room has a unique interior.
, are shielded by a magic circle and cannot detect the situation inside.
"Well, not bad, not bad!" Tianjiu nodded and said.
"Although these screens are carved from rare jade, they are not of high value in our world of immortality. They just look better. It took me less than three hours to renovate the entire second floor. Here are twenty-eight
I have arranged a maid for every elegant room." Gui Xiaoxiao continued to explain with a smile.
Just as he was talking, Mi Yurong flew up and grabbed Tianjiu's arm.
At this time, there were two ninth-level Qi Refining monks who looked like casual cultivators. Each of them held a jade identity card. They went up to the second floor. They just nodded to them and found the elegant room with the corresponding number. They took the jade card.
After pressing the door, the door of the private room opened with a small bang, and he walked in without hesitation.
"Twenty-eight elegant rooms? Twenty-eight maids? Where did you get so many female nuns?" Tianjiu asked strangely.
"Tch! Just listen to her, right? The maids are all hired by Hua Jingshi from outside." Xiaomi said angrily.
Just as Tianjiu was about to ask a question, Gui Xiaoxiao also took Tianjiu's other arm and said, "Brother, let's go to the fifth floor to talk. There are many people here."
Tianjiu shivered, nodded awkwardly and said, "Okay, okay, let's go upstairs. You all relax, I can still walk."
However, no one paid attention to him, and the two beauties dragged him up to the fifth floor, one on the left and the other on the right.
On the fifth floor of Tianxing Pavilion, in addition to a large living room, there are more than a dozen bedrooms. The one in the middle belongs to Tianjiu. But he has not stayed in it for a few nights.
In the large living room, there are all kinds of jade stools and chairs, and there is an exquisite coffee table next to each set of chairs and stools. Tianjiu sits in the middle, while Gui Xiaoxiao and Xiaomi sit on both sides, continuing to form a confrontation.
"Brother, is this trip going well?" Gui Xiaoxiao asked with a bright smile.
"Fortunately, I'm not dead yet! You see I'm fat and white, so I must have succeeded." Tianjiu said with a smile.
Xiaomi pouted, sulking without saying a word.
"I didn't expect that my eldest brother is so powerful that he can walk on flat ground when he crosses the Dongling Gate! Alas, it seems that Xiao Xiao is worrying too much!" Gui Xiaoxiao sighed.
"What, you went to Donglingmen?" Xiaomi jumped up. "You went to Donglingmen and didn't tell me. You only told this goblin. It seems that you don't care about me, Xiaomi.
"
Mi Yurong pointed at Tianjiu and said loudly, while tears welled up in her eyes.
"No, no! Xiaomi, don't think too much. I want to go out for training and have to pass through the Dongling Gate. You also know that your sister Xiao Xiao is from the Dongling Gate, so I asked her a few more questions about the situation there. I
I didn't tell you because I was afraid that you would be worried. In fact, your brother Wanbao knows about this, didn't you ask him?" Tianjiu explained with a smile.
"Hmph, stop talking about that Wanbao. I went to Lingzhu Valley and asked him once. In addition to raising spiritual pigs, he also practices cultivation. When I asked him anything, he just shook his head. There is also this dead demon who knew it but didn't say anything." Mi
Yu Rong rolled her eyes at Gui Xiaoxiao and said.
"Oh, forget it, forget it! I'm back now! Well, let's talk about Tiandu Fengfang City, starting with the maid of Tianxing Pavilion." Tianjiu quickly changed the topic.
"That's it, Brother Tian!" Gui Xiaoxiao took over the conversation, looked at Tianjiu and said with a guilty conscience: "Those maids were all hired by me, Hua Jingshi, from the casual cultivators. You know that Hua Chen has a shortage of beautiful women.
Cultivators, and many religious nuns can be hired freely as long as they have crystal stones, and it is much safer than the other four gates. The interior of Huachen Gate is actually very safe. With the income from crystal stones, I can feel relaxed
I hired dozens of pretty female cultivators to come to our Tiandu Fengfang City. They only spent most of the crystal stones you gave me."
Speaking of crystal stones, Gui Xiaoxiao lowered her head involuntarily.
"Hmph! You're using the boss's spar for nothing, and you have the nerve to show off. This is a city, not a secular world. Why do we need so many beauties! A goblin is a goblin, and it's hard to change your surname!"
