The so-called Lingshui Island is a quite large island, completely different from the "small island" Wu Jie had previously guessed.
The shape of this island is like a drop of water, lying in the vast sea. It is narrower from north to south, but it is about 600 miles, and it is nearly a thousand miles from east to west. If calculated in terms of area, it should be the most impressive island on earth in Wu Jie's previous life.
The deep island - Taiwan - is much larger.
In the center of Lingshui Island is a high mountain shaped like a volcano. But what flows out from the crater is not magma, but slightly green spring water. This spring water is Lingshui Island's famous Lingquan water, which is used to water plants.
It makes it grow vigorously; drinking it can strengthen the body and is a treasure.
Lingshui Island has a lot of arable land and supports a population of one million. This island is located in the middle of the Penglai Islands. It has a good geographical location, a fairly gentle coastline, and many good harbors... Because of these unique conditions, commerce is also quite developed.
Several large chambers of commerce in the archipelago have branches here, and several immortal cultivating sects are also located here.
"When it comes to sects, they can't really be counted." Ling Yunzi said, "The real big sects are all in the core areas inside the archipelago. There are basically no big sects in places like this in the middle or even close to the edge of the archipelago."
Sect. The largest sect on Lingshui Island is the Lingquan Sect. The leader, Jin Quanzi, has been practicing for nearly a thousand years and has achieved the golden elixir for almost six hundred years. He is considered highly respected..."
Shi Lei curled his lips, looking a little disdainful.
The lifespan of the Golden elixir monks in the Penglai sea area is only about a thousand years. This Jinquanzi has practiced for nearly a thousand years but is still stuck in the Golden elixir realm. It is obvious that his lifespan is about to end. He spent six hundred years and still failed to get out of the Golden elixir realm.
The realm of alchemy has gone a step further. In the eyes of Shi Lei, a rather arrogant young man, there is really nothing worthy of respect.
If it were in the past, as a foundation-building monk, he would naturally have awe for the golden elixir monks. But he had close contact with Wu Jie, a senior expert who was at least in the golden elixir realm, and might be a Yangshen or even a Dharma form, and he also got the respect of the senior expert.
A few pointers raised his horizons, and Jindan monks like Jin Quanzi were no longer taken seriously by him.
"There has been no breakthrough for six hundred years. He should have achieved the golden elixir using the method of borrowing elixirs." Liu Tianen said slowly, "The method of borrowing elixirs is simple and easy to implement. Although it has many consequences, it is still my first choice as a Penglai monk.
.It’s just that it’s easy to become an elixir, but it’s more difficult to make progress in the future... I wonder if this senior Jinquan is about to die now, does he ever regret his original choice?”
"Hehe... If I can make the elixir from the old Taoist, it's okay to borrow the elixir..." Ling Yunzi chuckled, but there was some bitterness on his face.
Among the three of them, Shi Lei is young and promising, less than 200 years old; although Liu Tianen is older, that is because he has always pursued the path of refining the elixir with the two fires of civil and martial arts. If he wants to borrow the elixir, he can
The identity of the sect is not difficult at all; only Lingyunzi is very old, but his cultivation level has never improved.
Lingyunzi naturally also wants to take the path of alchemy, but he knows his own situation. It is almost impossible to refine the golden elixir. What he dreams of is to complete the foundation building as soon as possible, and then take the path of borrowing the elixir to achieve the golden elixir.
.
If you achieve the golden elixir, you will have a thousand years of life, and you will have many magical powers, and you can even start a sect...Lingyunzi's life-long dream is nothing more than that.
Wu Jie nodded slightly. Although he didn't say anything, he secretly made up his mind.
The so-called method of borrowing elixirs is to borrow the alchemy essence of sea beasts as elixir seeds to condense the golden elixir. This borrowed elixir is also divided into three, six or nine grades. If you can directly obtain a complete sea beast golden elixir, then the quality of the golden elixir achieved will be
It will be very high, no less than ordinary alchemy pills, and there is hope for further breakthroughs in the future.
But... those who can get the sea beast golden elixir, why bother to think about borrowing the elixir? This road is probably prepared by the Yinshen Daoist for his nephews and juniors. Ordinary monks, even masters of the golden elixir, are not capable of getting it.
The Golden Elixir of the Sea Beast.
It is not easy for sea beasts to become a complete golden elixir. Even if they are not smart, their combat power is definitely strong enough. For example, the two strange fish that fought Wu Jie many times some time ago are of this type.
typical
Ordinary Jindan monks can't defeat such sea beasts. If they meet on a narrow road, you still don't know who will eat whom.
Wu Jie didn't have such a complete golden elixir on hand, but when he killed the golden elixir sea monsters that besieged him, he collected a lot of semi-finished sea beast golden elixirs, which are now placed in the world of the Book of Heaven. Du Ruo regarded them as stones.
They were also placed on the beach, in a circle around the old turtle who had been sleeping soundly all day.
Moistened by the aura of the Heavenly Book world, these golden elixirs have no intention of decaying. They still maintain strong vitality and can be used at any time.
If Ling Yunzi could show his destiny, Wu Jie would not begrudge a golden elixir.
Anyway, this thing is not precious to him, it is just a decoration.
When the Black Kun arrived at Lingshui Island, Nihaha took two clever sailors off the ship and went to find the merchants here to discuss business issues. Wu Jie and others also got off the ship - the three foundation-building monks had already
As agreed, they were not bodyguards on the ship, they just came to Lingshui Island on the way to act as bodyguards in their spare time and pay for the ship fare.
As for Wu Jie, he didn't mind living on the boat. But Nihaha didn't even dare to think about it. In his opinion, a golden elixir master might be the real Yin Shen... how could he value his humble boat?
?
If people are willing to live on the ship for a period of time, most of them still think that the foundation-building monks are good talents and are willing to help them, so they have nothing to do with Nihaha.
After getting off the boat, Ling Yunzi led the way, taking Liu Tianen, Shi Lei and Wu Jie to the Qunxian Guild Hall located in the east of the island.
In addition to forming various large and small sects, the monks on the Penglai Islands also have a loose unified organization called the "Qunxianhui". The establishment of this group of immortals is, firstly, to coordinate the relationship between the various sects.
, and the second is to unite the forces of all the tribes on the archipelago to fight against the sea tribe that invades the archipelago from time to time.
The so-called sea tribe refers to the strange creatures living in the deep sea. Every once in a while, they will launch an attack on the Penglai Islands, which is called a "big avalanche". Each big avalanche will bring huge disasters to the islands.
damage.
People tend to stick together when facing danger, and the same goes for monks. In order to resist the invasion of the sea tribe, the monks from the Penglai Islands formed this group of immortals under the leadership of several Dharma Masters.
The existence of the Immortals Association has a history of countless thousands of years. It is not obvious near the periphery of the archipelago. By the time we reach the core area of the archipelago, almost all important resources, if not controlled by the sect, are controlled by the Immortals.
Will master it, no exceptions.
Facing such a behemoth, even the arrogant young Shi Lei, with his nostrils turned upward, must be cautious and not dare to be rude in the slightest.
The reason why Wu Jie and the others wanted to go to the Immortals Guild Hall was to register first - this is the rule of the Immortals Guild. Whenever a monk comes to an island, unless he is leaving right away, he must register at the Immortals Guild Hall for easy contact.
;More importantly, it is to find a place to stay.
Immortals and mortals live together in the Penglai Islands, and monks do not mainly live in seclusion in the mountains and forests like in the Kyushu world. However, there are also many monks who are cultivators. If they want to practice, it is naturally better to choose some place with abundant spiritual energy, quiet and undisturbed.
On Lingshui Island, if you want to find a suitable accommodation, it is most convenient to come to the Qunxian Guild Hall to inquire.
The person in charge of managing the guild hall on the island is also a foundation-building monk named Hague. Like Nihaha, he is from the Golden Scale clan, but he is tall and majestic, and he has extraordinary momentum at first glance.
"Yunyashan Liu Tianen, I am a fellow Taoist from Yunyashan. Please take a seat." He looked dismissive when registering Ling Yunzi and Shi Lei. When he saw Liu Tianen's registration information, his eyes widened.
He didn't have the slightest reserve of a master, he came over very enthusiastically, and even called the waiter to serve tea. He was so arrogant at first and respectful at the other, which really made people speechless.
Liu Tianen was obviously very familiar with this situation. He sighed helplessly and asked Wu Jie to sit down first, and then sat down with Ling Yunzi and Shi Lei.
"Fellow Daoist from The Hague, you really have no vision," he sighed, "I'm not a great person. Even if you want to show kindness, you should do it to this senior Wu."
"Senior?" Hague was stunned and looked at Wu Jie.
When the four people entered the door, he had already scanned them with his spiritual thoughts. The cultivation levels of the three people were clearly at the foundation-building level, but Wu Jie's cultivation level seemed to be low, as if he was just practicing Qi or even a mortal.
But he didn't know that this was because the true energy in Wu Jie's body was condensed and his spiritual thoughts swept up, but there was no response at all, so he came to the wrong conclusion.
"I wonder what realm this senior Wu...Wu Si is in?" He hesitated for a moment, then asked honestly.
"Just write about the golden elixir." Wu Jie said with a smile.
Although Ha Ha had already guessed something when Liu Tianen praised Wu Jie, he was still shocked when he heard the words. He swallowed hard, and even the scales on his face shone with excitement: "Gold... Jin Dan
?”
"Well, let's just write about the golden elixir for now."
Hague blinked, not daring to ask any more questions. He picked up the register and cast a spell to write down this paragraph.
"So...senior, I don't know which sect you belong to? How long do you plan to live here?"
"Rogue cultivator, I don't know until... I don't know." Wu Jie said with a smile, "Maybe he will live until he becomes a Yin Shen.
The Hague was immediately overjoyed - there was originally only one Golden Elixir Grandmaster on this island, and he was getting older and his physical condition was getting worse day by day. If Jin Quanzi was gone and the huge Lingshui Island didn't even have a Golden Elixir Grandmaster, what would happen?
Once something happens, just relying on some foundation-building monks will not be able to control the situation.
This senior Wu is not only a master of the golden elixir, he is also the kind who has the confidence to become a Yin Shen. If you can ask him to stay on the island for a longer time - instead of thinking about work, it would be better to consider how to ask this senior for advice.
Is it important?
After all, the work of the guild hall is the business of the Immortals Association, and improving your cultivation is your own business. Which of the two things is more important is self-evident.
With this idea in mind, Hague became more diligent in doing things. In less than a quarter of an hour, he arranged for Wu Jie a small courtyard with the most spiritual energy on the entire Lingshui Island.
The terrain here is elevated, and you can overlook the two most important ports on the island. The place is quite secluded, with almost no people coming and going.
More importantly, it is also very close to the Qunxian Guild Hall, making it very convenient to seek advice in The Hague.
Wu Jie naturally had no objections and moved in. Liu Tianen and others also lived nearby, practicing and waiting.
Ling Yunzi and Shi Lei both made up their minds to slowly learn from Wu Jie, while Liu Tianen wanted to wait here, so they settled down.
