Bai Ya carefully looked at his merits and found that most of the level C merits actually came from the secrets and magic tools handed over to the sect. If we eliminated the matter of Huashan Sword Controversy and Pituozhou, there would be no more left.

This is also natural. He has not done many merit tasks in Qingcheng in recent years. Others work hard to do tasks and change elixirs, but he relies on extortion of Jingluo Zhenren to make up for the cultivation resources of the Qi Realm to promote the artistic conception.

"Senior Brother Wan, may you talk about the merits of level A and B above the merits of level C?" Bai Ya put down the black book and asked curiously.

"Merit tasks involving levels A and B are usually rarely seen, and once they appear, they are a major event." The middle-aged Taoist priest said meaningfully, "In fact, what Junior Brother Bai did in Didao City then belonged to level B... But Qingcheng would not issue such merit tasks due to the constraints of the Immortal Oath!"

Level C is just involved in the county government, so sometimes there are merit tasks, because the county government is easily influenced by the Green Forest Gang.

But Class B has risen to Chengjun, and the influence of the Green Forest Gang is not enough. If the incidents that can affect Chengjun are the government itself, it is a large-scale natural disaster.

No matter which one it is, it is difficult for the Xianwu Sect to intervene. Even if it is disaster relief, the government needs to take over. At most, the Xianwu Sect will take out some supplies and send some alchemists and doctors, such as setting up some porridge sheds and medical halls.

"Senior Brother Wan, since the influence of level A and level B is too great, why does the sect still set up these two levels of merit tasks?" Bai Ya asked in confusion.

"Junior Brother Bai, don't forget that it is a peaceful time. If it is a chaotic era like the Second Warring States Period, there will be countless merit tasks at Level A and B!" the middle-aged Taoist priest sighed and explained.

Bai Ya suddenly realized that indeed, the constraints of the Xianwu Sect by Xianfan vows on the Xianwu Sect were mainly in peacetime.

Once the troubled times come, the Xianwu Sect has to intervene in the secular world on a large scale. Because at that time, only their power can correct the situation, end the war as soon as possible, and minimize the losses of the human race.

"Senior Brother Wan, do the merits required for the bronze corpse to be promoted to silver corpse must be level C?" Bai Ya asked with a wry smile.

"The drought-ba essence and blood given by the Supreme Elder, and renting the Immortal and Demon Realm, must be offset by Level C merit. As for other medicinal materials for feeding copper corpses, there are Level C and Level D, and there are no specific calculations yet."

The middle-aged Taoist priest smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, I heard that because of Xu Xianling, there was another senior in the sect who owed you a favor. Although I can't tell you who this senior is, he will also tell you Xiang. The Supreme Elder may reduce the merits required for drought and blood."

"Didn't this... mean that merit cannot be transferred to others? Is that senior's statement useful?" Bai Ya couldn't help but be surprised.

Bai Ya knew what the middle-aged Taoist priest said about Xiang. Since Qingcheng has set the principle of equal exchange for his disciples, the so-called Xiang must have to pay a price, which is equivalent to someone else helping him with some of his merits.

"Yes, merit cannot be transferred to others. This is also a measure to reduce favoritism and fraud." The middle-aged Taoist priest smiled.

"But don't forget that the essence and blood produced by Drought do not mean the public things of Qingduguan. As long as the Supreme Elder's own things follow the principle of equal exchange, no matter you or the price raised by that senior, I will not be able to control it."

"Then... what my senior brother said just now, what is the matter of renting the Immortal and Demon Realm?" Bai Ya asked curiously.

"Even if the copper corpse takes the essence and blood of the drought-iron, it takes an extremely long time to advance to the silver corpse, and often takes hundreds of years. However, if the environment it is in is an extremely yin place, then the time will be greatly shortened, and it only takes two or three years at the fastest." The middle-aged Taoist priest explained.

"There are several underground caves in Qingcheng that belong to the extreme yin land, but they are definitely not as good as the Immortal and Demon Realm. Therefore, in order to increase the probability of promotion, it is best to choose the Immortal and Demon Realm."

"Senior Brother Wan, this Immortal and Demon Realm... Can I spend my merits into it?" Bai Ya asked cautiously with a flash of eyes.

"You? Haha, you can't do it, it has nothing to do with merit and status." The middle-aged Taoist priest said with a smile, "There are many immortal and demon realms in Qingcheng. Some of them have slightly thin vitality. They are basically used to plant treasures in heaven and earth and stock scattered beasts and fairy birds. These places are only a little better than Qingcheng Mountain, and it doesn't matter whether they can enter or not.

Other immortal and demon realms with particularly strong vitality can only be adapted to by innate warriors, or their physical properties are extremely strong. Otherwise, if they are not replenished, even if their body is not protruded by the vitality, they will leave behind hidden damage after cultivation."

"So that's it!" Bai Ya now understood why the sect had valued him so much, but he had never allowed him to enter the realm of the Immortal Demon, because those places were not something he could go to.

...

After leaving the merit ritual altar, Bai Ya felt a sense of melancholy. Most of the materials he obtained from Wanqing Cave had already been tossed.

The savings of a congenital warrior over hundreds of years, and the items in the mustard bags were gradually left, but now there are only two secret books "Qishan Poisonous Documents" and "Bone Shrinking Techniques", as well as three magic weapons: Zhu Yanzhu, Qingming Sword Pills, and the Luye Wolf Stepping Clouds, which are equivalent to the fragrance of the soul.

"I hope Bai Tong can be promoted successfully in the end, otherwise it will be a big loss!" Bai Ya smiled bitterly and shook his head, and walked towards the Lingxi Palace of Zhenren Jingluo.

As he walked, he suddenly felt that the scenery around him was a little blurred, and a layer of light mist appeared in the forests in the mountains.

At this time, it was still early, and Bai Ya came out of the merit ritual hall at about nine o'clock in the morning. The fog brought a hint of coolness of autumn morning, and it was particularly refreshing when it hit her face.

Baiya walked forward along the mountain road. Although he couldn't see the scenery in the distance clearly, he didn't pay attention. He narrowed his eyes slightly in the wet fog, breathing with a hint of wonderful rhythm, which actually activated the true energy in his body.

The wet fog around seemed to have spirituality. As his chest fluctuated, two white smoke rushed in and out happily between his mouth and nose, like two small mist dragons, and seemed to be demonstrating a boxing technique.

When Bai Ya woke up, he felt refreshed and a hint of coldness appeared in his chest, as if he had drunk a bowl of iced sour plum soup on a hot day.

"Five Elements Fist..." Bai Ya muttered in a low voice, knowing that the five elements fist that had practiced a lot had reached the fifth level of martial arts skills.

Five Elements Boxing is not a combat skill, but Five Elements Boxing is corresponding to the five internal organs in the body, so its improvement is of great benefit to "training the internal organs", which can shorten the physical refining time of Hunyuan iron cloth shirt.

"Well, where is this?" After being happy, Bai Ya suddenly realized that the surrounding environment was unfamiliar, so he had taken the wrong path along the mountain road.

He was a little amused and cried, so he had to stop and look around and take out a piece of Zhong Lingmu from the mustard bag. However, after thinking about it, he put Zhong Lingmu back in his arms and no longer wanted to summon Qingcheng disciples patrolling the mountains.

It is really embarrassing to be lost in my own place. Anyway, I am still on the mountain road, and at most I will arrive at Lingxi Palace later.

However, he turned around and walked for a while and became depressed. He didn't recognize him at all and finally got completely lost.

"Well, maybe there are people there." Bai Ya looked around for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up and he saw a small pergola on the side of the mountain.

This pergola is located on the edge of a melon field on the mountainside, and the ground is filled with round watermelons. Many places in Qingcheng are like spring all year round, and there are still many watermelons in this season.

The terrain here is smooth and there are green terraces everywhere. He suspected that he accidentally walked out of the Qingcheng Mountain Protection Formation and met the mountain people living in the mountains.

Baiya soon walked to the pergola and saw a middle-aged peasant woman sitting upright inside. She was wearing a big bamboo hat and a coarse cloth skirt, and was weaving a bamboo radish.

"Ahem, aunt...oh, sister, where is this place and where can I get out of the mountain?" He coughed lightly, attracting the attention of the peasant woman.

But when the peasant woman looked up, Bai Ya was stunned. The other person seemed to be much younger than her clothes. She looked like a young woman in her thirties. Although she did not wear heavy makeup, her face was elegant and she could be considered a beauty.

The only regret is that there is a blue birthmark in the forehead, like Erlang Shen's third eye, which destroys the overall beauty and looks a bit fierce.

"The young hero is a disciple of Qingcheng?" The young woman's voice was a little hoarse, and Bai Ya was surprised as soon as she opened her mouth.

However, he soon came to his senses. There were many relatives of cultivators in Qingcheng Mountain, just like those descendants of Jingluo Zhenren of Lingxi Palace. Perhaps the young woman in front of him was one of them. In this case, it would be good news, indicating that he did not walk out of the formation of Qingcheng Mountain.

"Yes, there was a heavy fog before, and I was going down the road and mistakenly entered here. Please don't blame me." Bai Ya nodded quickly with a smile and hugged the young woman, "I don't know where Lingxi Palace is. Please give me some advice. I'm grateful!"

"I know where Lingxi Palace is. However, I am troubled by something now. I wonder if the young hero may help me?" The young woman covered her mouth and laughed.

"This... I wonder what I can do for my elder sister?" Bai Ya hesitated for a moment and responded.

He thought it would be too late to go to Lingxi Palace now, so it doesn't matter if it's a little late.

"That's right. My elder brother went out to chop wood in the early morning, but he hasn't come back yet. I wonder if he is in trouble. Could the young hero go to the place where he chops wood?" The young woman bowed slightly and gave a gift.

"Okay, I wonder which direction the elder brother went?" Bai Ya asked patiently.

"Aren't the young man afraid of trouble?" The young woman's eyes flashed and she asked with a smile.

"No trouble, I'm fine, but why not go and see the elder brother first. If there is really something wrong, you can also take the lead." Bai Ya shrugged and said honestly.

"Okay, he often goes to the northwest corner of the peak to chop wood, and you should see him wherever you go." The young woman nodded to him and weaved bamboo radish on her own.

Bai Ya felt a little strange, but didn't say anything. After all, her elder brother was just late and something might be wrong.
