Young Master Xiaoyao, Qing'er, and Zhang Jin were in the Kunlun Mountains, admiring the scenery of the Immortal Family in the Paradise of Cave Heaven, picking up monsters along the way, and sending away monks who had no eyesight.
Young Master Xiaoyao noticed that over the Kunlun Mountains, more and more people were heading east. Some were flying with swords, and some were riding on demon birds.
"Zhang Jin, do you know what they are going to do?" Young Master Xiaoyao asked.
"Brother, they are going to the market to trade." Zhang Jin replied.
The market is equivalent to a market in the secular world. It is a place where cultivators exchange cultivation resources with each other and exchange what they have. The things traded are not available in the secular world.
"Sister Qing, let's go to Fangshi to have a look. Zhang Jin, you lead the way." Young Master Xiaoyao said.
Soon, Mr. Xiaoyao and the others arrived at Fangshi, in a valley in East Kunlun. Fangshi is vast in area, equivalent to a medium-sized city in the secular world. Most of the things are bartered there, and of course you can also buy them with spiritual stones.
Mr. Xiaoyao and Qing'er walked slowly while inspecting the items being traded. Some of the traders placed them directly on the ground to attract passing monks to exchange; some displayed them on the counter of a shop; there were even tall shopping mall-like trading centers.
When they came to a stall, Mr. Xiaoyao pointed at a herb and asked a middle-aged monk. Mr. Xiaoyao saw that he had the late-stage cultivation of Bigu.
"A low-grade spiritual stone, or other cultivation items of equivalent value." the middle-aged monk replied.
Young Master Xiaoyao gave the middle-aged monk a low-grade spiritual stone and took away the herb. In fact, Young Master Xiaoyao did not need it, and the herb was not very effective, but Young Master Xiaoyao knew that it was not easy for them to practice, so he bought it.
Young Master Xiaoyao and Qing'er walked around the market for several hours, but there was nothing they could see. Even when they arrived at the trading building, they didn't see any high-end goods.
The elixirs are all low-grade or low-grade elixirs; the treasures are mostly low-grade, and there are even magic weapons for sale; the spells are not very effective, and most of them are low-grade goods; the materials for alchemy and weapon refining are also not high-grade.
The big sects don't have enough of the real intermediate-level and high-level elixirs, treasures, and materials for alchemy and refining. They are not willing to trade them. Most of the people who trade here are casual cultivators. Although it is possible to get good goods, it is difficult to meet them.
.
Young Master Xiaoyao discussed with Qing'er and decided to adopt the approach of Penglai Cave Heaven, slowly eroding the influence of Kunlun Cave Heaven until he controls the entire Kunlun Cave Heaven.
Although it is possible to lead the Qilin Legion to sweep across the Kunlun Cave with thunderous momentum, Young Master Xiaoyao does not want to cause too much turmoil too early, and things have to be done step by step.
The cultivation environment of casual cultivators is very poor, and the cultivation resources are limited, so they are the easiest to absorb. Mr. Xiaoyao decided to recruit casual cultivators first, so Mr. Xiaoyao put up a billboard:
Xiaoyaozi, the head of the Xiaoyao sect, recruits casual cultivators to join the sect here.
Recruitment benefits: one low-grade spiritual stone per month during the Qi-entraining period; two low-grade spiritual stones per month during the Qi-refining period; three low-grade spiritual stones per month during the foundation-building period; five low-grade spiritual stones per month during the Bigu period; ten yuan per month during the fusion period
Low-grade spiritual stones; five medium-grade spiritual stones per month in the golden elixir stage; five high-grade spiritual stones per month in the Nascent Soul stage; five top-grade spiritual stones per month in the out-of-body stage.
Recruitment conditions: Absolute loyalty to Xiaoyao Sect, loyalty to Xiaoyaozi, and planting a soul imprint. Xiaoyao Sect ensures the absolute safety of its disciples.
As soon as the billboard was put up, the news quickly spread throughout the city, and casual cultivators swarmed in the direction of Xiaoyaozi. Planting a soul mark was nothing to the casual cultivators, as long as it could ensure their cultivation resources and safety.
If there is a sect to protect you, why not do it?
"Zhang Jin, you should enter the Hunyuan Ring to practice and strive to transform into a dragon as soon as possible." Xiaoyaozi (later called Mr. Xiaoyao in the secular world) took Zhang Jin into the Hunyuan Ring and gave him a magic pill.
Xiaoyaozi released Bai Su. Bai Su had reached the peak of the late stage of out-of-body experience and was already a very good fighter.
"Sister Qing, you are responsible for distributing spirit stones, Su Su is responsible for maintaining order, Meng Shen, you are responsible for planting soul imprints, and I am responsible for registering." After Xiaoyaozi gave instructions, he took out a square ancient jade and prepared to record the information of casual cultivators.
Many casual cultivators had already arrived, and Bai Su asked them to line up and come one by one. Xiaoyaozi asked them their names, Taoist names, training places, cultivation levels, and whether they could plant a soul mark to join the Xiaoyao sect.
The first casual cultivator of Xiaoyao Sect who readily joined was the middle-aged monk who traded medicinal herbs. There was one leader who took the lead, and then more and more casual cultivators joined. Many more casual cultivators swarmed in this direction.
At this time, suddenly there was a commotion in the crowd, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Disperse quickly!" The Fang City law enforcement patrol team came, and a Jindan monk at the head shouted. The Fang City law enforcement patrol team is composed of eight sects.
The profits gained were equally divided among the eight sects.
But the monks were unwilling to retreat.
The law enforcement patrol came to Xiaoyaozi, and the golden elixir monk shouted: "Are you Xiaoyaozi of the Xiaoyao sect? Who gave you permission to recruit casual cultivators here?"
"My recruiting casual cultivators here doesn't bother you. Do I need your consent?" Xiaoyaozi said coldly.
The middle-aged casual cultivator next to him said: "Master, you need to pay an appropriate entrance fee to enter the market."
Xiaoyaozi nodded and asked casually: "How much is usually needed?"
The middle-aged monk replied: "Master, generally one low-grade spiritual stone costs from one to five."
The captain of the law enforcement patrol team, a golden elixir monk, said with a sinister smile: "It can't be done without the consent of our law enforcement team. If your Xiaoyao sect really wants to recruit casual cultivators here, it's not impossible. You have to pay 10,000 lower-grade spiritual stones.
That’s all.”
Xiaoyaozi sneered contemptuously: "Why don't you go and grab it? If you want it, don't pull it down." After saying that, he threw five low-grade spiritual stones to the captain of the law enforcement patrol team.
"You want to send us away with five low-grade spiritual stones? Do you think we are just starting to practice rubbish?" the captain of the Jindanqi team snorted coldly.
"Do you want love?" Xiaoyaozi stretched out his hand, strong suction was generated, and five low-grade spiritual stones returned to Xiaoyaozi's hand, "Get out of here! Don't affect my mood. Bai Su, drive them away." Xiaoyu Xiaoxia,
Xiaoyaozi was too lazy to do anything.
Bai Su waved his hand, and all the law enforcement patrols took off into the air, flew into the distance, and then slowly fell down. Seeing Bai Su's powerful strength, Xiaoyaozi was not afraid of the eight sects, so they were even more excited to join the Xiaoyao sect.
urgent.
The recruitment of casual cultivators is proceeding slowly and orderly. More and more casual cultivators have joined the Xiaoyao Sect, and even golden elixir stage casual cultivators have begun to join.
"Who is Xiaoyaozi from the Xiaoyao sect, get out of here!" A loud shout came from far away, and more than a dozen masters of the Golden Elixir and Nascent Soul stages appeared in the sky above the city.
