After saying goodbye to Chen Xuan, Shen Binglan did not choose to return to the Demon Sea to find Wanyan Xiyin, the third prince of the Sea Royal Clan, or to find Princess Haixin of the Shark Clan.
The direction she flew towards was Zuzhou.
Chen Xuan watched Shen Binglan go away, and he was very curious in his heart as to why Shen Binglan was going to Zuzhou, but he did not pursue him.
Firstly, in order not to affect Shen Binglan's Taoist heart, and secondly, Chen Xuan cannot return to the current Zuzhou for the time being. After all, he recently killed a genius disciple of the Lingbo Sect, the largest sect in Zuzhou.
So Chen Xuan quickly made up his mind to go to Yuanzhou, adjacent to Zuzhou, to find a cave to retreat to recuperate and improve his cultivation. After his injuries were fully recovered, he could continue to inquire about the ruins of the Xianyu Empire, and by the way, find out what Shen Binglan was looking for. What kind of treasure is the Shark Pearl?
After making up his mind, Chen Xuan no longer hesitated, put on his cloak and flew towards Yuanzhou.
The human monks and sects of Yuanzhou are not at all inferior to Zuzhou, and when Chen Xuan arrived at the largest island of Yuanzhou, he found that the largest city in Yuanzhou was even more prosperous than that of Zuzhou.
However, it was already half a month later that he entered the largest market in Yuanzhou.
"This guest, our store belongs to the Wanmu Sect, one of the five major sects in Yuanzhou. It has a golden sign and is honest and honest. Whatever level of cave you want to rent, we have it all here!"
In a splendid and luxurious commercial building, a middle-aged monk with a slightly fat figure was very warmly greeting Chen Xuan who had just entered the store.
Taking the jade album from the middle-aged monk's hand, Chen Xuan poured his spiritual consciousness into it and browsed through the descriptions of caves of different levels in the jade album.
These caves appeared in Chen Xuan's mind in a three-dimensional and intuitive way. Some of them were located on a spiritual mountain on a certain island, some were in the sea area under the jurisdiction of Wanmu Sect, and some were based on an entire spiritual island. Luxurious caves, this kind is also one of the most top-notch caves.
Chen Xuan did not want to choose those caves located on Lingshan Mountain, because there are at least several caves in a Lingshan Mountain, and choosing such a cave would inevitably involve dealing with the monks from other caves on the mountain.
However, the underwater cave seemed a bit flashy, and monks who were more suitable for practicing water-based techniques were also eliminated by Chen Xuan.
What excited Chen Xuan the most was a cave made from a small island on the edge of Yuanzhou. This cave was in a remote location, far away from the major sects in Yuanzhou, and a long way from the Sea of Demons. Renting this cave could be protected by thousands of trees. Zong's asylum is a very suitable choice for Chen Xuan.
"Choose this Fuqiu Island Cave House."
When Chen Xuan said this and handed the jade book back to the fat middle-aged shop owner, the middle-aged shop owner couldn't help but be stunned.
He confirmed that he had not misjudged Chen Xuan's cultivation level, and Chen Xuan did not hide his aura. The young man in front of him was indeed a monk in the transformation stage, and he actually chose one of the top caves in their store. The rental price of this cave is very high. It's not something a monk in the transformation stage can afford.
"Guest, are you sure you want to rent Fuqiu Island Cave House?
The rental price of this cave is ten middle-grade spiritual stones a year, and it cannot be rented on a monthly basis. You..." "Ten medium-grade spiritual stones a year?"
Chen Xuan was not surprised at all after hearing this.
In Yuanzhou's black market, he sold off all the ores he had previously obtained from Lingmine Island and exchanged them for fifty high-grade spiritual stones. One high-grade spiritual stone can be exchanged for one hundred medium-grade spiritual stones. This means that now Chen Xuan His net worth is extremely rich.
The Yuanzhou and Zuzhou sects do not interfere with each other, and Chen Xuan does not have to worry about being betrayed by a black market shop and being hunted by Lingbo Sect masters.
Because of the existence of the Penglai Heavenly Palace and the Thunder of Punishment, every store in the city must abide by the trading rules, so Chen Xuan felt very confident when selling ore.
When the middle-aged shopkeeper in front of him quoted the rental price, Chen Xuan took out a high-grade spiritual stone without hesitation: "Let's rent it for three years first, and you can find me a mid-grade seventy-grade spiritual stone."
The middle-aged shopkeeper who received the high-grade spiritual stone was stunned again, and then he realized what he was doing, with a more enthusiastic smile on his face.
"Please wait a moment, I will find the spirit stone for you right away."
Not long after, Chen Xuan walked out of this luxurious shopping mall with a normal expression. The difference from when he came in was that there was an extra jade tablet in his storage bag that could control the Fuqiu Island Cave.
After strolling around the largest market in Yuanzhou and buying some cultivation materials, Chen Xuan left the market with satisfaction and flew towards Fuqiu Island.
Ten days later, Chen Xuan arrived at this small island located on the edge of Yuanzhou. The Wanmu Sect monk stationed on the island confirmed that the jade tablet in Chen Xuan's hand was correct, and respectfully brought Chen Xuan to the cave before flying off the island on his own.
.
Chen Xuan is very satisfied with the concentration of spiritual energy on Fuqiu Island. According to his estimate, it will take at least three years to refine the spiritual alcohol, repair the soul and raise the cultivation level to the level of the Void Return Stage again. However, practicing on this island,
Three years is more than enough time.
Fortunately, Chen Xuan obtained a drop of spiritual alcohol flowing from the number one spiritual eye in the world of mountains and seas. Otherwise, he would have been unable to break through the Void Return Stage due to the injury to his soul after practicing on Fuqiu Island for many years.
Without further ado, Chen Xuan entered the cave to check the restrictions and began to practice in seclusion. He originally wanted to summon the thunder carp to protect the island, but after the thunder carp swallowed the Huangyou Linyan, which was ranked 21st on the list of strange fires in the mountains and seas, he had already
It has been sleeping for more than ten years and still hasn't woken up. This makes Chen Xuan look forward to how strong the Lei Li will become after waking up, but also worries that it will fail to advance.
At the beginning, Shubuda had said that the success rate of advancement of thunder carp, a different species of heaven and earth, was very low, and it became more and more difficult to advance the further you go. Even if Chen Xuan spent so much time cultivating thunder carp, he could only resign himself to his fate now.
Time flies, and the first year passes quickly.
It took Chen Xuan a whole year to completely refine the spirit alcohol. Of course, this refining speed is very fast. Ordinary monks would take at least two or three years longer.
After refining Lingchun, Chen Xuan's soul's recovery speed can be said to have improved dramatically. The injuries that were originally irreparable for thousands of years were fully recovered in just one year.
Two years have passed and Lei Li still hasn't awakened.
Chen Xuan spent his third year improving his cultivation, practicing the martial arts secrets, worshiping the fire Sankasyapa, and refining the essence of the strange fire of Huangyou Linyan, which happened to be achieved just a few days before the three-year lease of the cave was about to end.
When the Divine Stage is complete, one can easily break through the Return to Void Stage by flying up to the Biluo Tianqiong and absorbing the Xuanzhen Qi.
Having just recovered from his serious injury, Chen Xuan was quite satisfied with the speed of his cultivation, but what surprised him the most was that the Lei Li who had been sleeping in the Lingxi Diagram finally made some changes! He saw streaks of blue and purple all over Lei Li's body.
, the strange electric arc intersecting with black made a crackling sound, as if brewing some kind of powerful force.
The two horns on the head of the thunder carp are also beginning to appear, and they look more and more like the legendary dragon horns.
Chen Xuan was overjoyed when he discovered that there was a faint sound of thunder in the sky above the cave, as if to celebrate that the thunder carp was about to advance.
This unusual celestial phenomenon quickly attracted the attention of a nearby monk from the Wanmu Sect who was in the Void Return Stage.
