Chapter 397: An invitation from the expedition team
"Zhao is just practicing in seclusion, why bother to mobilize people like this? Cultivation is just a small step forward, it's not worth mentioning." He has always been very generous and gentle to his own friend Zhao Shoushou.
At the moment of leaving the seclusion, with a sweep of spiritual consciousness, I already had a general understanding of the changes in Hulululing Island over the years.
This huge change naturally requires some effort, and the first credit should undoubtedly belong to the two foundation-building monks present.
Compared to an island owner who just left things alone and focused on seclusion, they were obviously more qualified. How could Zhao Shoushou be dissatisfied? After all, he was still the one who benefited the most from them.
After a simple conversation, the monks in the escort team had dispersed. Zhao Baihua, Fu Yuehua, and Zhao Shoushou, the three controllers of Hululing Island, entered the island owner's mansion for a secret conversation, all of which were important events related to future development.
"The two fellow Taoists have worked hard these years. Mr. Zhao will remember it all in his heart. Whenever there is an opportunity in the future, he will definitely find some extraordinary elixirs for the two of them." This is the promise of a late-stage foundation-building monk. It seems that
Simple yet quite substantial.
"The island owner is too polite. It's just a matter within my scope. However, I have gained a lot of benefits over the years, and my injuries have been fully recovered." Zhao Baihua is actually quite satisfied with this point.
"The deputy island master is right. If it weren't for the sufficient supply of spiritual elixirs, it would be impossible for this little girl to have the opportunity to be promoted to the second level of foundation building with her qualifications of five spiritual roots." Fairy Water Sleeves' face was even more satisfied.
The iceberg beauty's appearance and flowery smile made him stunned for a moment.
"You two fellow Taoists, there is no need to be polite, but are there some things that need to be solved by someone?" At this time, Zhao Shoushou just remembered his responsibilities as an island owner, which was quite funny. It seemed that in his heart, Hululing Island only
Can be ranked last.
"Thanks to the intimidation of the island owner, Hu Wei, Ling Island has been developing well in recent years, and there have not been too many troubles. There are only three invitations that need to be reviewed and processed." As the deputy island owner, Zhao Baihua has the right to speak on this point.
, and took out three invitation letters for small groups and handed them over.
"If something happens, don't be polite. After a while, someone may choose to travel abroad to look for opportunities. Hululing Island is fully entrusted to the two of you." Zhao Shoushou said straightforwardly.
This promotion to the later stage of foundation building took a total of twenty-five years, which basically consumed all the time he had gained from the Purple Life Life Fruit, and he had to race against time for the remaining time.
After all, compared to the difficulty of condensing golden elixirs, the bottleneck in the later stages of foundation building is nothing more than child's play. In addition to improving cultivation, the search for heavenly materials and earthly treasures also needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
"Island Master, please rest assured, we will do our best." The two monks seemed to have expected it, and they agreed quite simply.
They understood that a mere second-level middle-grade spiritual island was obviously not enough to trap a vigorous, broad-minded, and positive late-stage foundation-building monk.
What's more, they are happy to see this situation come to fruition. On the one hand, they can continue to take charge of a spiritual island legitimately. On the other hand, following a powerful monk, they will have more opportunities in the future.
This point is actually particularly important for Fairy Water Sleeves. If she can get the full help of a future Jindan monk, all her troubles can be easily solved.
If two people who are in love have the opportunity to become Taoist couples, wouldn't this all seem more logical? With the full help of a golden elixir monk, the five spirit root monks also have the opportunity to advance to the late stage of foundation building and even get a glimpse of the possibility of the golden elixir.
Practicing extraterrestrial elixirs overseas is not a particularly mysterious method. The most rare thing is a sea beast elixir with matching attributes.
The various drawbacks of Waidan are unavoidable, but it is undeniable that for some monks who have no hope of promotion, it is a method that can effectively extend their life span and increase their strength. It is very tempting.
For a female cultivator who was born as a casual cultivator, what relationship can surpass that of a Taoist monk? It is impossible to say that from now on, the inner thoughts of this iceberg beauty have begun to change little by little.
Of course, Zhao Shoushou didn't have much energy to care about these matters of love between children for a while. After sending away the two important assistants, all his attention was already focused on the three invitations in his hands.
The three invitation letters have a rough description of the time, purpose, reason, and significance of the establishment of the three small teams.
In fact, their ultimate goal is the same, which is to obtain some genius treasures to increase the probability of condensing golden elixirs through various different means. The only difference is that there is a slight difference in choosing the path to the goal.
The hunter will simply hunt some special sea beasts, take the demon elixir and some special materials from the sea beasts, and use them as a means to assist in condensing the golden elixir. The strongest achievement is to form a large formation with hundreds of late-stage foundation-building monks.
Successfully hunted down the third-level low-grade sea beast without anyone dying.
As the name suggests, the herb collection team collects various elixirs. Of course, these elixirs all grow in some extremely dangerous places or in the lairs of sea beasts, so the difficulty is also quite high.
The expedition team is a collection of the first two. They focus on various secret realms, dangerous places, senior caves, etc. that have existed in the world of cultivation for a long time or have recently appeared, in various forms.
The most various treasures obtained were the most, but also because they faced the most and unpredictable dangers, the casualties were also the heaviest. In almost every operation, at least three or five members would die.
Of course, risks and benefits coexist. Among the three small groups, the expedition team has the most number of monks who have successfully condensed the golden elixir. Basically, this happens once every thirty years.
The number of monks in the three small groups is basically similar. They all have about a hundred late-stage foundation-building monks, among whom there are mainly some small sects and casual cultivators.
As for which Zhao Shoushou to join among them, it is not yet certain. After all, he did not know anything about the three small groups before. How can he make a hasty decision this time when the choice involves the condensation of the future golden elixir?
In the next ten days or so, his main energy was focused on welcoming and sending guests to nearby spiritual islands, some shopkeepers in Hululingdao City, and monks who often made a living on Hululing Island.
The visit, even if only the foundation-building monks were qualified to receive him in person, was still a large amount.
However, every time I see more and more treasures in the storage bag, my mood will somehow get better. After all, every monk who comes will bring some valuable gifts.
"Invitation from the expedition team? Is it a show of goodwill or a test of a certain strength? Or a combination of both?" It wasn't until one month later that Zhao Shoushou held an invitation letter again and couldn't help but think.
Please consider the risks and benefits of this trip.
He never thought that the second invitation from the expedition team would come so unexpectedly.
