"Let's go!" After everyone heard this, they quickly returned along the original path. Following the gap at the entrance of the cave, they could see that outside the cave formation, they had been bombarded with spells. There were two teams of monks bombarding the formation.
However, there was a raging earth fire in that cave, and no one dared to go out for a long time. They could only convey a simple message through the cave and the monks outside the formation curtain, and then used the formation to block the raging fire at the entrance of the cave again.
Earth fire.
Several hours later, the formation curtain finally dimmed suddenly, and then completely dissipated. Zhao Yuan and others immediately got out of the hole, using the magic shield to resist the ground fire and escape from inside.
The magic power in Zhao Yuan's hand surged out, protecting Jiang Mingkun.
Stepping on the clouds and smoke, he was out of the underground cave and appeared in the outside world in an instant.
After taking a look at the surrounding environment, Zhao Yuan couldn't help but exhale as he felt that the environment was completely different from the depressing atmosphere underground.
"Thank you fellow Taoists for the rescue this time, otherwise there would be no accidents over time!" Zhao Yuan glanced at the many monks, and then walked towards the two teams of monks.
There were formation masters in these two groups of monks. Just now, there were two formation masters, and with the combined efforts of about twenty monks, they were able to successfully open the formation and rescue them.
Seeing Zhao Yuan like this, the two captains of the monk team looked gentle and said with a smile, "You're welcome, fellow Taoist, we are all monks under the five great foundation-building monks.
Now that the five forces are working together to develop, we are as close as one family.
This time we help you, but next time you may be the one to help us. Help each other and overcome difficulties together, that's all.
Now that each team of monks has set up the boundary weapon, fellow Taoist monks should set up the boundary weapon of your team of monks together as soon as possible!"
"This is nature!" Zhao Yuan took out a triangle shape from his storage bag, with the forbidden magic weapon engraved on it. It was the boundary magic weapon used to divide the boundaries. He pinched the magic weapon in his hand, and in an instant he saw a magic weapon.
The light blue light reaches straight into the sky.
Not long after, rays of light were seen coming from a distance, and they merged with the light emitted from the boundary device above, completely enclosing the Lieyang Mountain area, telling other monks that this area had been occupied.
————————————————
On Lieyang Mountain, palaces and pavilions stand tall.
The waist of the corridor is unkempt, the eaves are high and the teeth are high, everyone is embracing the terrain and engaging in intrigues.
These palaces are scattered all over the Lieyang Mountain. The spiritual light of the formation above the palaces flickers from time to time. In addition, the thin curls of clouds and smoke transformed from the spiritual energy and water vapor are lingering among them. It is a scene of an immortal family. How can it be different from the previous ones?
A dilapidated scene.
With a flash of his body, the token in Zhao Yuan's hand flashed with spiritual light, and a wave of waves swept over him.
"Brother Su Chengxiu of Lieyang Mountain passed the test."
Following the words that appeared on the formation curtain in front of him, Zhao Yuan entered the Lieyang Mountain formation.
Looking at the monks constantly coming and going around him, Zhao Yuan rushed towards the Hall of Merit on the mountainside without any hesitation.
In the Hall of Merit, there are monks in the early and middle stages of Qi refining who are busy, and there are almost no monks in the late stage of Qi refining or above.
For monks with their level of cultivation, they cannot accept tasks such as cleaning up monsters in Lieyang Mountain and fighting against monks who want to snatch spiritual objects in Lieyang Mountain. They can only do these logistical tasks.
Either work in various organizations in Lieyang Mountain, or directly accept some construction tasks such as reclaiming spiritual fields. Although the reward is small, it is better than safety.
Although they also covet the merits obtained by those late-stage Qi-refining monks, they don’t have the strength of others, right? Nowadays, the number of late-stage Qi-refining monks who have died at the hands of monsters or in the hands of casual cultivators who broke into Lieyang Mountain Hell to steal spiritual objects has exceeded
The number of palms.
Entering the hall, Zhao Yuan came to a counter and put down the token in his hand, "Su Chengxiu, this time we repelled and killed the three casual cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage who invaded, and found a second-level low-grade spiritual plant. Come and hand in the mission!"
"
Seeing Zhao Yuan, the monk did not dare to neglect him. He took the token from Zhao Yuan's hand and relied on the photo on the token to check the authenticity of the mission. He complimented, "Senior Brother Su is really talented. In just a few days,
Since then, senior brother's achievements can be ranked among the top twenty among all monks."
"It's just luck!" Zhao Yuan waved his hand, "The reason why I have so many meritorious deeds is because I discovered the blood cultivators who came here to open the ruins on the first day and killed a few of them. This is why I have so many meritorious deeds.
"
Five days ago, on the first day after entering the secret realm, his team of local monks encountered a group of blood cultivators. After he escaped and reported the situation, a foundation-building monk named Lin Feng came immediately.
Lin Feng was so powerful that he could cut anything with a sword in his hand. He led three teams of monks all the way from the ground to the ruins of the underground fire veins, and directly entered the core of the ruins.
This ruin is what was left by the indigenous blood cultivators thousands of years ago. It was mainly used to breed strange fish here, collect the essence of spiritual minerals, and then cast artifacts. These blood cultivators entered here to obtain some of the classics left here.
And some fine magical weapon embryos.
Just the various cultivation materials they saw as they followed to clean up the mess contained at least 70,000 to 80,000 spirit stones, not to mention the things they didn't see.
Although they were not qualified to get involved in these resources, they had previously discovered that the blood cultivator reported it in time and did not let the things in these ruins be transported away by the blood cultivator, which still allowed them to obtain a meritorious service.
In the past few days, he has taken on many tasks of hunting down monsters or repelling monks who entered the Lieyang Mountain area.
After a few days, although I didn't have time to practice with all my heart and consolidate my newly achieved breakthrough, I took the opportunity to earn a lot of merit, not to mention the extra money from some spiritual herbs and the like that I found on the way to completing the mission.
After recording the meritorious deeds, Zhao Yuan exchanged a few words with the monk and then left the meritorious merit hall. A moment later, he arrived at the temporary residence at the bottom of the mountain.
Because I had just entered the secret realm and was busy building basic temples and formations, I temporarily built some stone houses under Lieyang Mountain. Although these stone houses had no effect on gathering spirits, they were only used to allow the monks to rest.
It's enough.
After entering his stone house, Zhao Yuan opened the properties panel and checked it out.

With this promotion, there are not many changes on the panel except for a few small changes. However, the improvement in mana and spiritual consciousness brought about by the improvement in cultivation level has greatly improved his combat power.
————————————————
On the Spirit Boat of the Lieyang, in the attic, five foundation-building monks gathered together.
Wen Jingqiao frowned slightly, "Although this secret realm was formed by the fragments of the blood cultivation world, in the battle that destroyed the world, the three earthly immortal masters of our Fenglinzhou Immortal Sect directly blocked the essence of the blood cultivation world in a few places.
Within the fragments of the world.
Ten miles turn into one mile, spiritual energy is concentrated, and there are no monks for thousands of years. Therefore, the status of this secret realm is not much worse than some ordinary places in the main world!
Today, although the area of Lieyang Mountain is only about 60,000 feet, Lingshan Mountain is rich in resources.
Now, although it is only the initial development, we have invested hundreds of thousands of spirit stones in it, and this has not yet taken into account the various subsequent development losses. I am afraid that you fellow Taoists will have to raise another amount of spirit stones!"
"This is simple!" Lu Yihe calmly picked up the spiritual tea in front of him, "We are not ordinary foundation-building monks. We are all monks who have some attainments in cultivation skills such as refining, refining weapons, and making talismans. If it is not possible, everyone can find their own home.
The elders behind the scenes can just borrow some.
What's more, the high-level spiritual objects obtained from the initial exploration, as well as the resources obtained from exploring the underground fire blood cultivator ruins are not few, and just exchanging these resources for spiritual stones is enough to support the development for a period of time!"
As long as the spiritual veins in the Lieyang Mountain area are properly maintained, they can continuously produce spiritual stones. Even if the investment is slightly larger at this time, they can all be recovered in the future, and a large amount of spiritual stones can be earned for everyone to need for future practice.
.
"By the way, do you have any juniors you value highly? This time, some low-level first-level, middle and lower-grade spiritual veins in Lieyang Mountain can be directly assigned to them.
On the one hand, it cultivates their ability to handle affairs, and on the other hand, it also gives them an opportunity to collect resources!" Wen Jingqiao fumbled for the tea cup in his hand and looked at everyone.
"You can have this!" Lin Feng raised his eyebrows, "In this way, we will follow the usual practice of occupying 50% of the spiritual vein land, and then let them invest a certain amount of spiritual stones to develop the spiritual vein on their own. It depends on how much they earn.
They are on their own.”
Hearing this, Lu Yihe couldn't help but ponder for a moment, and then said, "As you know, I just came out to work alone not long ago, and there are not many available monks under my hands. The only two little guys I value are only in the late stage of Qi refining.
.
Although the performance of these two little guys this time is considered outstanding, their merits are not ranked in the top ten. If they plan to allocate spiritual land to their monks, it will definitely not be enough. In terms of merits, they are not ranked either!
"
"This is easy!" One of the middle-aged monks laughed and said, "Just conduct a screening. We don't have to set the conditions ourselves. When the time comes, we can just screen out the juniors we identify with!
Originally, it is our right to do what we do. The so-called screening is just to bring some balance to the minds of ordinary monks. It is understandable for us to do so.
Or, we can each directly plan a spiritual land in our own name and give our monks the opportunity to get it."
————————————————
Outside the Hall of Merit, Zhao Yuan walked into the hall door with a complicated expression.
Unexpectedly, one day, he would become the beneficiary of the secret operation, but this was originally intended to give him and others an opportunity, and this was just to appease the ordinary monks.
After all, several foundation-building monks are low-level. Although many monks are not very talented and do not have much credit, they still have some hard work. This operation is to appease the grievances of these old people.
As for Lu Yi and his subordinates, he and Zhou Quan are the most talented and capable, so there is no objection, but there are still some things that should be done.
With his thoughts in his mind, Zhao Yuan stepped into the palace gate and exchanged several Lu Yi plants with the second-level elixir that was given to him privately to gain merit.
When he walked out of the palace, he happened to meet Zhou Quan who had also come to the Hall of Merit. After Zhao Yuan looked at him, he stood waiting outside the palace. After a moment, Bian Jian Zhou Quan walked out of the palace. The imperial envoy stepped forward and said,
"Where do you rank among your achievements now?"
"Tenth!" Zhou Quan said as he walked, "This high-level decision is a good opportunity for the two of us. Senior Lu values the two of us and is willing to give us a chance, and even choose a first-level high-grade place.
Spiritual vein development.
However, neither of us alone can afford to develop and take care of one place. It is not difficult for the two of us to work together to obtain a first-class high-grade spiritual vein, and then jointly invest in the development. As long as the spiritual veins are cultivated in place and the output is fully developed, it will be enough.
Provide us with a steady stream of spiritual stones.
Moreover, this time we have become members of the alchemy workshop and are no longer just alchemists. In the future, even if we purchase foundation-building spiritual items, we can use the spiritual vein industry as collateral to borrow a sum of spiritual stones from Senior Lu.
!”
"Okay!" Zhao Yuan nodded, "Originally, you and I don't have much savings. Although hundreds of spirit stones a year are more generous than those of monks of the same level on the ninth level, it consumes more resources to practice exquisite level skills.
For you and me, who have a higher standard of living, it is still not enough.
This time, thanks to the care of our seniors, we are willing to give us such an opportunity. Once the spiritual veins are fully developed and pillar industries are established, we should no longer be short of resources before the foundation period."
