A few days later, Yang Cheng returned to Fanhua City.
After hurriedly entering the store and purchasing a few bottles of elixirs, he returned directly to the courtyard and activated the forbidden formation.
He followed Yang Cheng to the training room, sat cross-legged on the futon, and began to look inside carefully.
In the battle with Zheng Long, Yang Cheng took the risk and used the natal sword fetus that had only been warmed for a short period of time. Although Zheng Long was killed with one blow, the natal sword fetus was also damaged.
At this time, Yang Cheng could clearly see through his inner vision that a crack had appeared on the body of the natal sword embryo that was being warmed up.
Under the connection of minds, if the sword fetus is injured, it will also backfire on Yang Cheng.
As a result, Yang Cheng not only vomited a large mouthful of blood on the spot, causing his origin to be weakened.
Even his cultivation has regressed to a certain extent, and he is further away from the peak barrier in the early stage of foundation building.
Fortunately, Yang Cheng immediately found another place, took several pills in succession and sat in meditation for several days, finally stabilizing himself, and his cultivation no longer continued to decline, and then he hurried back to Fanhua City.
As for the impact of this time, it would be impossible to recover without a few years or more of hard work.
However, by wiping out Zheng Long and his gang, Yang Cheng not only had no future troubles, he could practice hunting with peace of mind, and the harvest was also very large.
As a veteran mid-stage foundation-building monk who has been in Fanhua City for many years, and the boss of a group of casual cultivators, Zheng Long's net worth can be said to be a mobile treasure.
There are countless pills, spiritual stones, and magic weapons, which is an eye-opener for Yang Cheng!
With these resources and his own gains, it would not be a problem for Yang Cheng to retreat for hundreds of years at a time.
The only thing that needs to be worried is whether Yang Cheng can endure loneliness and sit down for such a long time.
In the world of immortality, the average life span during the Qi refining period is one hundred to one hundred and twenty years, which is similar to the longevity in the secular world.
The lifespan of monks in the foundation-building stage is a little higher, but it is only between 200 and 250 years.
Although Yang Cheng's age is still young in terms of the foundation building period. But as we all know, every level in the foundation building period is not like the Qi refining period, and it is relatively easy to advance.
Yang Cheng didn't know if he would be blocked at a certain level.
What's more, this time due to the influence of the natal sword embryo, his cultivation level has deteriorated, and it will take at least several more years of practice to restore his previous cultivation level.
After the inspection, Yang Cheng gave a bitter smile, took out several porcelain bottles from the storage bag, took a pill and gently put it into his mouth, and began to practice with his eyes closed.
Time flies so fast, half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
In the training room, Yang Cheng, who had been sitting quietly for many years, finally opened his eyes, with a hint of joy in his eyes.
Unexpectedly, in this short period of time, he not only completely recovered his cultivation, but also went a step further and touched the barrier at the peak of the initial stage of foundation building.
The speed of cultivation was so fast that even Yang Cheng couldn't believe it.
Thinking of this, Yang Cheng entered the sea of consciousness again and looked at the small fruit.
Unfortunately, although Xiaoguo has been quietly staying in the sea of consciousness, Yang Cheng can still vaguely see mysterious lines on its surface, which look like some kind of words and patterns.
But what left Yang Cheng speechless was that not only could he not see the mysterious lines clearly, but he couldn't look at them at all. Otherwise, he would become dizzy and swollen due to excessive consumption of his spiritual consciousness.
After several losses and the dream he had, Yang Cheng vaguely guessed that Xiaoguo's origin seemed to be extraordinary.
It's just because his cultivation level is low now that he can't discover Xiaoguo's secret.
Thinking of this, Yang Cheng felt very depressed.
Even in large sects, no one would ignore a monk in the foundation building stage. But when facing Xiao Guo, he still felt like he was facing a senior in the pill forming stage during the Qi Refining stage.
But what makes Yang Cheng happy is that since Xiaoguo has entered his sea of consciousness, it seems to be repairing it. But sooner or later, it will be discovered by him and used by him.
After resting for a moment, Yang Cheng suddenly thought of something and took out a jade slip to read it.
After a while, Yang Cheng put down the jade slip, took out a small box and opened it gently, revealing two cyan spiritual fruits.
After searching through the Illustrated Book of Strange Flowers and Spirit Fruits, I found an introduction to the Green Spirit Fruit, which is indeed effective in making breakthroughs in the cultivation of monks in the foundation-building period.
Then without any further hesitation, Yang Cheng picked up a Qingling fruit, put it into his mouth, and started chewing it.
Soon, Yang Cheng felt a billowing spiritual energy suddenly rising from his body. He was startled and quickly started to perform basic exercises.
Since the cultivation has reached the bottleneck so smoothly, and now there is a strange fruit like Qingling Fruit to help. If Yang Cheng doesn't take this opportunity to try to attack and see if he can directly enter the middle stage of foundation building, then it will be true.
Silly.
And this breakthrough was just as Yang Cheng expected. Under the huge spiritual energy of the Qingling Fruit, he only led the attack a few times, and the barrier opened in response, allowing Yang Cheng to successfully enter the middle stage of foundation construction.
for.
With the breakthrough in cultivation, the last remaining tiny crack in the body of the sword was finally closed.
Under the double joy, Yang Cheng stabilized his mind and continued to practice for more than a year. He felt that the cultivation level in the middle stage of foundation building was strong enough, so he ended the nearly ten-year retreat practice with unfulfilled talents.
Then Yang Cheng closed the formation in the small courtyard and came to the courtyard to sit on a stone bench and look at the flowers in the corner of the courtyard wall.
"It seems like we should rent a cave on the other side of the Jingmeng River next!" Yang Cheng murmured thoughtfully.
After this long period of practice, he also clearly felt that the spiritual energy in the city was indeed somewhat insufficient.
Moreover, Yang Cheng has now reached the middle stage of foundation construction and continues to live in the city. It seems a bit unreasonable.
In the eyes of interested people, they might think that Yang Cheng is a deviant and cause other troubles.
And now, Yang Cheng is still unclear about the follow-up cultivation and needs to communicate with his colleagues about cultivation matters.
Under such circumstances, renting a cave with abundant spiritual energy to live in can also help you get twice the result with half the effort in daily practice. It is very necessary now.
As for the cost of the cave, after Yang Cheng got all the wealth of Zheng Long and his gang, his storage bag was more abundant than ever before. I dare not say anything else, but paying the rent of the cave is not a problem at all.
After two days of rest, the Qi Refining Period Yaman came again, looking nearby at the yard where Yang Cheng rented.
When he saw that the yard was closed, he came forward and knocked on the door.
Yang Cheng opened the courtyard door, let Yaren in, and told him that he would no longer rent the property.
Under Yaren's somewhat wistful gaze, Yang Cheng handed over the jade token that unlocked the restriction, thought for a moment, took out a small gadget from his storage bag and threw it to the opponent, before going out.
Then Yang Cheng walked and drove to the Jingmeng River Bridge, stepped onto the bridge and looked at the other side.
I saw that in the white mist rising from the river, the other side looked like a fairyland.
Countless caves were opened on the hundred-foot-high cliff, and monks flew in the air from time to time.
In the canyon diagonally opposite the bridge, in addition to ordinary caves, there are also layers of pavilions built in the lower areas.
The ground is shaded by spiritual trees and the heights are decorated with flowers, which makes people feel relaxed and happy just looking at it.
Yang Cheng was a little dumbfounded, and then he guessed that the person who thought of digging these caves in the first place must be a female cultivator.
Otherwise, why would this place be built in such an elegant and ethereal way? After seeing it, Yang Cheng felt that his whole body was full of vulgarity.
After crossing the Jingmeng River Bridge, on the opposite side, there are young men in the Qi Refining Period arranged by merchants all year round waiting here to guide the way and handle certain matters for high-level immortal cultivators who need to rent a cave.
After hearing that Yang Cheng was the one he was waiting for, although the boy was a little surprised that Yang Cheng's appearance was so young, his attitude immediately became more respectful.
If Senior Yang can pay rent for a few more years at a time, he can also get a few more pieces of spiritual stone as reward.
Under the respectful guidance of the boy, Yang Cheng followed and walked towards a three-story building.
After entering the first floor, the boy hurried up and talked to an old man in purple who was in the middle stage of foundation building.
After hearing what the boy said, the old man in purple immediately turned his head and glanced at Yang Cheng's face and body.
After seeing that Yang Cheng showed that he was in the middle stage of foundation building, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he immediately said with a smile: "I have admired my name for a long time, I heard that Fellow Daoist Yang is planning to rent a cave?"
"Yes, I haven't asked my Taoist friend for your name yet. Also, regarding the rental of the cave, I wonder if you can tell me something?" Yang Cheng didn't seem to notice the other party's surprise and said calmly.
But I'm not surprised at all.
Fanhua City is not big, and as Yang Cheng is a new monk in the foundation building stage, it is impossible for the other party not to know about it, and they are probably guessing when Yang Cheng will come to rent the cave.
It's just that the information I got before was for the early stage of foundation building, but now it shows the middle stage of foundation building.
Of course, Yang Cheng would not take the initiative to say something like this just after a breakthrough, and would let the other party guess.
Having just killed Zheng Long and his gang, Yang Cheng realized that keeping a low profile was not a good thing.
On the contrary, showing a hint of edge just right will make everyone get along more harmoniously.
"My surname is Su, and I am the manager responsible for leasing the cave here. If Yang Daoyou wants to rent the cave, I can help you a little."
As he spoke, the old man surnamed Su smiled and extended his hand to indicate that he would take Yang Cheng to the second floor for a detailed discussion.
After drinking some tea, Yang Cheng quickly walked out of the building, checked his position, and then turned into a startling rainbow and flew towards the canyon.
After a while, Yang Cheng's figure landed at the door of a cave on the middle floor and looked around.
The buildings and pavilions in the canyon, not counting the ones on the ground, have a total of ten floors of caves on the cliffs on both sides from bottom to top, extending all the way into the canyon.
In addition to the caves on the cliffs by the Jingmeng River, Yangcheng estimated that there were thousands of caves, and he was suddenly a little surprised.
Although part of the cave is still empty, so many foundation-building monks gathered together can be a big force.
What's more, I heard that some monks in the alchemy stage also live here all year round.
As for whether the old man surnamed Su's cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building can suppress these people, Yang Chengdao wouldn't be surprised.
The old man surnamed Su is obviously a person with long sleeves and good at dancing. He is very suitable to be the steward who deals with a group of monks who are above the foundation building stage.
In addition, there must be someone responsible for the security of this place, including monks renting accommodation to cause trouble, etc.
It is even very possible that there will still be a period of pill forming.
It's just that these people are usually hidden and cannot be seen under normal circumstances. This chapter has been completed!
