It will naturally take enough time for all these arrangements to be completed smoothly, which means that Zhao Shoushou will not be able to get out of seclusion in a short period of time.
This actually made the young monk Huitong, who had been secretly monitoring and observing his every move, very anxious. After all, although he had the specific information about the cave in his hands, it did not mean that everything would be fine.
"Although the later stage of Qi training is more difficult, two months is enough. Don't you want to be willing to fail and want to try again?" Looking at the location of Zhao Shoushou's cave not far away, the young monk Huitong whispered in a depressed voice.
With.
If Zhao Shoushou had not been personally appointed by the abbot and had to find ways to make him a member of the Buddhist sect, how could he, who knew the guest monks well, be able to do the spying work himself?
Buddhism is usually trapped in poverty in the far west, but there are also temples in the Central Plains, so some secular disciples naturally exist.
On weekdays, this lay disciple relies on handling some inconvenient matters for them in exchange for generous rewards to maintain his practice. This can be called the dark side of Buddhism.
Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by. It has been May since the Luohan Temple auction closed, and it has already gone from hot summer to cold winter.
From the initial breath-control meditation, the breakthrough in cultivation, the stabilization of the realm, to the refining of the final high-grade water-singing sword, after all was completed, his strength had greatly improved compared to before.
The sixth level of qi training and the seventh level of qi refining seem to be only one step away, but they have blocked the path of many monks. Among the huge casual cultivators, the late qi training monks already have a lot of say, and other monks naturally do not.
Will be easily provoked.
"Quack, quack," Zhao Shoushou has just come out of seclusion, and the two newly promoted first-level mid-level cormorants can't wait to show off their new strength, as if they are waiting for the praise and recognition of their master.
"I don't know if you are the master or if someone is the master, one is full and the other is sleeping every day until I reach the middle level of the first level. Why are you working so hard for me?" After rubbing and playing with the two cormorants, I felt very good.
The two cormorants have always been happy with this simple method of communication, and they are contented to wander freely near the spring full of spiritual power.
Under normal circumstances, it was not easy for the two cormorants to be promoted to the first-level mid-level based on their ordinary poultry qualifications, but they were still unable to provide him with help.
"In the future, we will need to specifically hunt down some monsters with similar bloodlines to help them." After thinking about it for a while, there was only one way.
Turning his head, his attention quickly turned to the first-order low-grade Purple Jade Green Bee hive located in the corner of the cave. After several years of breeding, the size has increased several times. After several generations of changes, the size and combat effectiveness of the current spirit bees are obviously larger.
Stronger.
Thanks to the efforts of these hard-working little bees, a bottle of first-grade low-grade Lingfeng honey can be harvested every two months. Unfortunately, Cormorant Island lacks the growth of real spiritual flowers, resulting in the queen bee's grade never being able to be improved.
The original spiritual fields in the cave near the spiritual veins have been replanted with first-order low-grade purple jade flowers. Under his careful cultivation, more than twenty plants can bloom every year on the mountain.
After years of careful cultivation and the continuous investment of five low-grade spiritual stones every month, the spiritual veins in the cave are now a stable first-order low-grade spiritual vein.
However, due to the constraints of his weak congenital conditions, he has always been unable to catch up with his progress, and the help he can provide is really limited.
This is also the actual situation that most casual cultivators have to face. When the spiritual lineage is basically divided into large and small sects and families, it is already very good to have a cave like this.
Ten days later, all matters were settled, and Zhao Shoushou officially left seclusion. However, before he left, in addition to the cave's protective formation, there were already a large number of communication talismans and seals hovering above it.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, it is said that a cave for Dzogchen monks in the late stage of Qi refining will be born in the northwest of Cormorant County. How about you and I working together to explore it?"
"The news that a monk's cave with the inheritance of alchemy is about to be born has been widely circulated. Currently, more than twenty middle and late Qi refining monks have gathered."
Most of the eight communication talismans were conveying news to him about a cave that had appeared inexplicably and was about to be born.
Several of them had the experience of hunting monsters together, but some of them had never heard of them. It was impossible to show their favor to him, a newly promoted monk in the late stage of Qi refining.
Zhao Shoushou still didn't understand why the news of the birth of a cave that he knew contained a treasure would be made known to everyone. Under normal circumstances, after accidentally learning the news, shouldn't he make a fortune quietly?
Maybe he will never know that this cave that is about to be born is an outright conspiracy of Luohan Temple, which all the target monks cannot refuse.
In fact, this kind of background is the scary thing about the monks of the sect. They have carefully prepared backup plans in many unknown positions, and they will not give up until they achieve their goals.
Zhao Shoushou probably couldn't figure it out even if he thought about it. In this cave that really has treasure inheritance, the killing move is a kind of chronic poison from Luohan Temple.
"The cave of a Dzogchen monk in the late stage of Qi refining who possesses the heritage of a first-class alchemist, even though he knows there is danger, is still hard to refuse" is like a honey pill wrapped in poison.
Since the most eye-catching thing passed down by alchemists is the Foundation Building Pill or its related elixirs, it is natural to know that a fierce competition will inevitably break out.
Although he successfully advanced to the late stage of Qi Refining, he was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining. It is understandable how difficult it would be to seize the treasure from the hands of many late stage Qi Refining monks and even Dzogchen monks.
"Knowing that there are tigers in the mountain, you prefer to go to the tiger mountain. Cultivation is to go against the will of heaven. Knowing that there are dangers, Zhao cannot just watch the opportunity and not fight for it." Although he had doubts of one kind or another in his heart, he still made up his mind to move forward.
This time when we go to compete for this cave that is about to be born, the two newly promoted first-order middle-grade spiritual beasts Cormorants naturally have to follow. On the one hand, they can help them resist at critical moments. On the other hand, they also want to see if there are any.
No suitable opportunities arise for them.
This time Luohan Temple carefully prepared to expose the ace cave in its hands. Naturally, the target was not just him, but at least three to five late-stage Qi-refining monks and a larger number of mid-stage Qi-refining monks.
"There is not even a blade of grass in this raised mountain range. How could the monks choose to build the cave here?"
"This is the brilliance of this senior. If he hadn't chosen such a quiet position, how could he have waited until now to be accidentally discovered?"
"I don't know where the rub bird came from. The cave has not been opened yet, but nearly twenty monks have gathered here?"
Two days later, when Zhao Shoushou arrived at the location of the cave, traveling day and night, he saw monks with different cultivation levels gathered together in twos and threes, discussing in low voices with each other.
After seeing him appear, one of them stood up with a happy face and couldn't wait to say hello. It was Lao Mang, the body-refining practitioner whom he met earlier. Now he is also a monk at the peak of the middle stage of Qi-refining, and his muscles look even stronger.
