Comparing the situation of all the second-order spiritual veins in Qingxuan Domain, Qinglinfang is considered the "cleanest" and the most friendly place for individual casual cultivators.
Well, the "individual casual cultivator" here should be added with a prefix, "capable individual casual cultivator".
At least, those casual cultivators who are talented but have not fully grown up do not have to worry about disappearing without a trace or having their spines broken due to some inexplicable reasons or simply because some beings feel threatened.
Be a dog.
Of course, Qinglinfang is not a true pure land of cultivation. If the monks make mistakes or touch certain taboos, they will also be severely punished.
Moreover, all this is done openly, and the power of Qingxuanzong is deeply involved in the management of Qinglinfang.
Because Qinglinfang was originally a city opened by Qingxuan Sect, and it was located in the second-order spiritual vein, which was originally the remaining vein of the third-order Qinglin Peak, right next to Qinglin Peak.
In other words, right under the nose of Qingxuanzong.
It has only been eighty years since Qingxuanzong was born.
In the first forty years, almost all of Qingxuanzong's energy was spent on the development of the third-order Qinglin Peak and the internal organizational construction and improvement.
Starting about forty years ago, as the internal affairs gradually got on the right track, Qingxuan Sect gradually freed up its hands and began to create Qinglinfang, a market open to all monks in Qingxuan Domain.
In other words, Qinglinfang came into being from scratch, and it only took a total of forty years since its birth. The entire process was under the nose of Qingxuanzong, and there were perfect iron laws and regulations from the beginning.
Any existence that cannot shake Qingxuan Sect must abide by the rules of Qinglinfang.
If there was a better choice, Meng Zhou actually didn't want to go to a place like this.
But I don't have a choice.
Compared to Qinglinfang where all the rules are clearly written down, like the one in Cuiyu Lake where all the rules are determined by the tacit understanding and will of the leading forces, this is even more unfriendly to individual casual cultivators.
This is by no means the judgment of Meng Zhou alone, but the common choice of the vast majority of capable individual practitioners.
First-level spiritual veins such as Nuanyun Valley and Hongsong Ridge have monks leaving every year for higher pursuits.
Some go quietly, and some make a lot of noise because of their status and reputation.
These monks will basically consider Qinglinfang as their first choice.
…
Seven days later.
Meng Zhou was rushing forward using the Feihong Technique. At this moment, he had converged his aura to the sixth level of Qi Training. Suddenly, three monks in gray robes suddenly sprang out from three directions and surrounded him.
One of them has the seventh level of Qi training, and the other two are monks at the sixth level of Qi training.
And almost at the same time they jumped out, two flying swords flew out of Meng Zhou's sleeves like swimming fish.
The three people didn't react at all. They only noticed a bright silver thread passing through the air, and the three figures turned into three headless corpses.
The bodies and heads of the three headless corpses were still spraying blood and rolling in the air. Six magical hands had touched their entire bodies and sent all valuable things to Meng Zhou.
After briefly checking this unexpected harvest, Meng Zhou quickly shook his head in disappointment.
"Poor guy!"
These days, Meng Zhou has also traveled five to six thousand miles. This is the first time he has met a serious robbery cultivator. Although it is because he is located in the hinterland of Qingxuan Domain, the security situation is worse than Meng Zhou expected.
Much better.
After checking the storage bags of the three Jie Xiu, his shabby net worth also changed his impression of the Jie Xiu greatly.
Just like people generally believe that bandits divide their money, eat meat, and drink wine, they also have a similar understanding of robbery cultivators.
Only now did Meng Zhou realize how big the gap was between this subconscious impression and the real situation.
The three calamity cultivators had only 607 low-grade spiritual stones in total. The seventh-level Qi-training cultivator only had a high-grade magic sword and a mid-grade magic weapon to support his dignity.
In addition to each of the other two having a mid-grade magic sword, their only low-grade magic weapon was junk.
It was obviously because he had suffered too much damage in previous battles but could not find a weapon refiner to repair it in time.
There are quite a few other messy bits and pieces, and there are even many kinds of poison reserves.
The three storage bags, including those used by the monk in the late stage of Qi training, were all of the lowest quality and only had a small space.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Meng Zhou absorbed the spiritual energy of a few spirit stones, restored some of his mana, and then continued on his way using the Feihong technique.
In seven or eight days, he traveled five to six thousand miles. For a monk in the late stage of Qi training, this speed is not too outstanding, it can only be regarded as average.
This is because Meng Zhou's speed when he was rushing was far from the limit of his ability, and he only used about 30% to 40% of his strength.
Who knows if when you click your back, a Foundation Builder or even a stronger one will fly overhead?
If everything behaves normally, there is a high probability that the swan flying in the sky will not stop for a little sparrow.
But if the little sparrows behave too abnormally, who knows whether they will stop and take a look out of curiosity?
In order to avoid this kind of trouble, Meng Zhou would restrain all his performances within the scope of a normal qi-training monk when it was not necessary.
Furthermore, he doesn’t spend much time traveling every day.
It is probably equivalent to the time spent practicing the Heng Lian method every day during the retreat in Shuiliandong.
Therefore, Meng Zhou's progress in other aspects was not delayed at all because of the long journey.
After the Knotting Technique was promoted from the initial stage to the small stage, the speed of knotting has increased a lot. It only takes half a minute to complete a rope knot, and you can gain +1 experience in about fifty minutes.
This has little to do with the flexibility of his hands and fingers, because for this indicator alone, its value has almost reached its peak.
The reason why it has changed so much is because when he was first formed, every time he tied a rope, he had to select the correct one from hundreds of knotting methods in his mind and memory, and then complete the task with the "correct answer".
But now, with the improvement of the realm of knotting, his understanding of it is much faster than before, and his memory and drawing speed are much faster.
The speed of mind-hand coordination has naturally been greatly improved.
…
On this day, because the route was about to approach the radiation range of a second-order spiritual vein, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Meng Zhou chose to take a long detour.
Even though it would prolong his journey, he made this choice without hesitation.
Since he had chosen to take a detour, Meng Zhou simply spent two more days and went to a place called Baiguoyuan where the first-order spiritual veins were located.
This spiritual vein is famous for being rich in a variety of spiritual fruits. It is larger than Nuanyun Valley and Hongsong Ridge, and is more orderly because it is closer to Qingxuan Sect.
While maintaining internal autonomy, the influence of Qingxuan Sect also penetrated silently.
For example, Qingxuanzong's Deacon Hall opened an office here and purchased various spiritual fruits in large quantities over a long period of time.
The traces of gangs such as the Anle Gang have faded, and have been replaced by various chambers of commerce, and there are more middle- and low-level casual cultivators.
There is also a special semi-professional group, the Ling Zhifu. As long as they do not step out of the range of their spiritual veins, their personal safety is basically guaranteed even if their fighting ability is poor.
Because they do not need to devote too much energy and resources to the cultivation of various life-saving abilities and have a stable income, compared to monks of the same level in Nuanyun Valley and Red Pine Ridge, their net worth is generally better.
The reason why Meng Zhou came here was precisely because of this.
He wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of all the storage bags that already exceeded double digits.
Qinglinfang has Qingxuan Sect's foundation builders and even fake elixir masters stationed there, and they can all be detected with spiritual thoughts.
The detection effect is clearer than going through the security check, and the storage bags cannot be filled with each other.
Although carrying a dozen storage bags with him does not violate the rules of Qinglinfang, it is bound to attract special attention. He does not want to be labeled as an alternative as soon as he enters.
Therefore, it is better to clear away these things that put you in a suspicious position in advance.
