The Black Mountain cannot produce the thousand-year-old Chalcedony Golden Zhizhi. Without this most precious main medicine, the fourth-level monster inner elixir can only be used to refine the foundation-building elixir.
Hunting down fourth-level monsters often requires timing and luck. Even sects like Qingxuan Sect cannot obtain the inner elixir of monsters reliably.
Therefore, the time for refining the foundation-building elixir on Black Mountain is not fixed. When you get the fourth-level monster inner elixir, when will you collect the auxiliary elixir? Usually, the furnace can be opened to refine the foundation-building elixir every tens or hundreds of years.
Dan.
It has been more than three hundred years since Ancestor Liang occupied Black Mountain. In these years, counting this time, Ancestor Liang has refined the Foundation Establishment Pill for the sixth time.
Every time Patriarch Liang refines the Foundation Establishment Pill, it means that a fourth-level monster dies at the hands of the Black Mountain monks. From this point of view, we also know how powerful Patriarch Liang is.
Although he is a casual cultivator, he is also a man of great genius. With a three-spirit-rooted cultivator, he has been the first cultivator in the Zifu of Yu Kingdom for almost 200 years.
Even Lu Hongniang, a ninth-level cultivator from the Purple Mansion of Qingxuan Sect, who has reached the edge of forming a pill, thinks she is no match for him.
It's a pity that he is still in glory, and his current longevity is no more than thirty years.
Compared with Lu Hongniang, although Patriarch Liang is not as strong as Lu Hongniang, his understanding and perseverance in cultivating Taoism is higher. However, due to lack of opportunities, he was unable to join the sect when he was young, so he did not go as far as Lu Hongniang on the road.
Every time Patriarch Liang refines the Foundation Building Pill, it is the biggest event in the three southeastern counties.
At this time, not only the casual cultivators on the Black Mountain, but also more than a dozen families in the southeast, and even the foundation-building families of the Hongshan Sect and Huanshui Sect in the north of Lushan, would come all the way from thousands of miles away when they heard the news, and bring their members with them.
The most precious spiritual object came to Black Mountain to exchange with Ancestor Liang for Foundation Building Pills.
This time when refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, Patriarch Liang went beyond his level and successfully refined seven spirit pills. His level was already equal to Luo Ziyan of Qingxuan Sect.
However, five foundation-building monks died tragically in Hanjiao Pond last time, and Patriarch Liang had promised to give their descendants a foundation-building pill.
However, among these five monks, one of them was alone and had no one to rely on. He could only exchange three Foundation Establishment Pills.
One of them was left by Patriarch Liang in the Liang family and handed over to Liang Hanyang for his own plan in case of death.
Therefore, in this Black Mountain Conference, there are only two Foundation Establishment Pills that can be exchanged, which is the least in these years.
From this we can see how fierce the competition for this exchange meeting will be.
Zhang Zhixuan lives in Baibao Pavilion and has been waiting on Black Mountain for more than two months.
In the past two months, no one dared to come to Baibao Pavilion to cause trouble because Zhang Zhixuan, a monk in the middle stage of foundation building, was in charge.
He also took out some spiritual stones from his storage bag, bought another batch of goods, and reopened Baibao Pavilion.
He didn't even have the slightest pretensions, using his dignity as a monk in the foundation-building stage to personally refine the second-level elixir for the monks in the Qi-training stage.
Because Zhang Zhixuan's elixir was practiced quickly and well, and the elixir success rate was very high, it immediately caused a sensation among casual practitioners in Black Mountain and attracted a large number of customers.
In the past half month, Baibao Pavilion's business has improved again. Although it has been in decline for many years, most of its regular customers have been lost. It is still not as good as it was in its heyday, but it is still countless times better than the previous situation.
Zhang Zhixuan is meditating on the sixth floor. This place is the place with the most spiritual energy in Baibao Pavilion. Wang Songhe practiced here back then, and now he has benefited from Zhang Zhixuan.
Suddenly, a transmission note was sent over, and the person transmitting the message was Liang Hanyang, the foundation-building monk of Taixu Pavilion. It turned out that today was the day of the Black Mountain Exchange Conference.
As soon as noon arrives, Taixu Pavilion will auction the Foundation Establishment Pill in its own shop.
Zhang Zhixuan already fully understands the rules of Taixu Pavilion's auction of foundation-building pills. Their rules are not much different from Zhang Zhixuan's bidding in his previous life.
The Foundation Establishment monks from each household took a letter and wrote in it various resources for exchange for Foundation Establishment Pills, and then handed it to Patriarch Liang for him to choose.
After the foundation-building pills are auctioned, during the remaining time, the foundation-building monks gathered here will also exchange some cultivation problems.
Ancestor Liang will also talk about his many years of cultivation experience, and then everyone will exchange some mutually useful cultivation resources.
Time passed quickly, and it was almost a quarter past noon.
Zhang Zhixuan came to Taixu Pavilion unhurriedly. As soon as he entered the door, he found that there were already more than seventy or eighty people in the hall of Taixu Pavilion.
Zhang Zhixuan knew some of them as monks from the Foundation-building family in the three southeastern counties, and Zhang Zhixuan also had some impressions. The remaining strangers should be monks from the Foundation-building family under the names of Hongshan Sect and Huanshui Sect.
The entire Yu Kingdom is close to the ancient battlefield of the vast sea, and the spiritual energy is considered a remote and sparse place in Nanya Prefecture.
The cultivation level of the monks here is almost much lower than that in the hinterland of Nanya Prefecture.
In terms of geographical area, Wu State is not much larger than Yu State. They are also close to the vast sea and are also influenced by the vast sea. Their previous status was slightly better than that of Yu State.
However, eight hundred years ago, the Kingdom of Wu produced a great monk with astonishing talent, Liu Xuanyan, the supreme elder of the Xuansu Sect.
This person has unparalleled talents and unparalleled cultivation. With only the sixth level of Nascent Soul, he can compete with the top nine-level Nascent Soul monks.
For hundreds of years, relying on Liu Xuanyan's great prestige, weak countries such as Yu State could only become vassals of Wu State, and their status was regarded as the lowest small country among the hundreds of countries in Nanya Prefecture.
However, Liu Xuanyan's luck was not good. First, he had a fierce battle with Zuo Fox King of Qingli Sea, a great monk of the ninth level of Nascent Soul, and suffered some internal injuries. Then he encountered the Heavenly Demon Rebellion brought about by the leader of the Seven Star Sect of Wu State.
After finally slaying the demon who was causing trouble in the world, he was betrayed by Yang Xuanzhen, the elder of Yuanying in Xuansu Palace, who colluded with outsiders.
The continuous disasters caused Liu Xuanyan to disappear for almost two hundred years.
A hundred years ago, even the soul lamp placed within the sect was completely extinguished.
Her disappearance triggered civil strife in the Wu Kingdom that lasted for many years. Liu Lingjun, Liu Xuanyan's disciple, fought with Yang Xuanzhen for many years and almost beat the Wu Kingdom to pieces.
It wasn't until Xuande, the Princess of the Yanghuo Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty, intervened that Liu Lingjun was defeated and left Wu State to practice in Qingli Sea.
After a hundred years of civil strife, the power of the Wu Kingdom's immortal world has seriously declined. Now only Yang Xuanzhen, a Nascent Soul monk, is left to guard the mountain gate. And Liu Lingjun, a close confidant with an increasingly advanced level of cultivation, does not have much power to control the surrounding areas.
A vassal state.
Without the suppression of the Xuansu Sect of the Wu State, the frictions between the four major sects of the Yu State have become more and more frequent in recent years.
In the past, monks from the Hongshan Sect and the Huanshui Sect often came to the three southeastern counties, but after the relationship gradually deteriorated, the exchanges between the four major sects became less and less.
This time, in exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill, they actually alerted these monks from the northern part of the Yu Kingdom and ventured into the three southeastern counties controlled by the Qingxuan Sect, which also opened Zhang Zhixuan's eyes.
