Chapter 212 Xuanyin Gourd
Because of the raging Dongji Locusts, a group of Dongji Locusts opened up dozens of spacious roads to Montenegro.
The weeds, trees, and even third-level monsters along the road were devoured and driven away by the East Pole Locust, forming a large wasteland.
These desolate areas are also relatively flat, making them ideal for the passage of large groups of vehicles and horses.
There was no need to take long detours, and there were no weeds or trees to block them. This trip to Montenegro saved a lot of time. It only took three and a half months for Zhang Zhixuan and his party to arrive in Montenegro.
Heishan was severely hit by the disaster this year. Zhang Zhixuan brought twice as much spiritual rice this time. Together with some other Taicheng County specialties, the value of the goods this time has exceeded 10,000 spiritual stones.
Although the goods were very valuable this time, the Black Mountain monks did not dare to make any decisions this time. If you dare to rob a transport caravan at such a sensitive time, let alone whether you can succeed. Even if you are lucky enough to survive, you will not be able to pass the test of Liang Patriarch.
Although Patriarch Liang is not far away from sitting, several of his disciples have practiced to the ninth level of foundation building, which is enough to suppress the casual cultivators on the Black Mountain.
As for the disciples of Patriarch Liang, except for the fourth disciple Kang Duhe who stayed behind and settled in Jiangkou County, the rest of the disciples have their fortunes and lives in Heishan. Anyone who dares to rob the caravan transporting spiritual rice to Montenegro will not leave them a way to survive.
Zhang Zhixuan and others came to Montenegro in a dusty journey. This time, in addition to leaving some specialties for Baibao Pavilion, the bulk of the remaining goods was still sold to Taixu Pavilion.
As long as Patriarch Liang is still alive, this large-scale trade can only be left to Taixu Pavilion to monopolize. As for the death of Patriarch Liang, if one of his disciples can open up Zifu, Taixu Pavilion can also keep its own property. If the disciples of Patriarch Liang cannot open the Zifu, Taixu Pavilion, the big fat sheep, will be in big trouble.
Zhang Zhixuan and Liang Hanyang counted the goods clearly. Looking at the list of goods that had almost doubled in number, Liang Hanyang looked embarrassed.
“You know, Fellow Daoist Zhang, that our Taixu Pavilion suffered a lot from the locust plague this time, and we were a bit reluctant to deal with the spiritual stones for a while. Let’s see if we can slow down for a few years.”
This locust plague caused almost immeasurable damage to Taixu Pavilion. Their elixir garden was scourge by the East Pole locusts, and all the elixirs in it were lost. Even the various spiritual objects in the warehouse in the pavilion were eaten by the East Pole locusts.
Regardless of spiritual rice, spiritual stones or spiritual minerals, anything with spiritual energy cannot escape the clutches of the East Pole Locust. It can be said that the Black Mountain monks, except for the contents in the storage bag, almost lost most of their spiritual objects this time. .
Even with Patriarch Liang as his backer, Taixu Pavilion cannot produce 10,000 spirit stones in cash now.
They have been dealing with Taixu Pavilion for many years, and their reputation is very good, and they have never defaulted on spiritual stones. The first time Liang Hanyang made such a request, Zhang Zhixuan was embarrassed to refuse.
Zhang Zhixuan glanced at Liang Hanyang in embarrassment and said bitterly: “This is the first time that Mr. Liang has made such a request. Considering our decades of friendship, I am willing to help if I can. But these goods do not belong to our family. , the main source of spiritual rice is the Liu family of Taibai Mountain. Our family has spent too much in recent years, and my family alone cannot fill this hole. How about I replace a batch of spiritual objects from the remaining resources of Taixu Pavilion and let everyone. They all circulate around each other.”
In the world of cultivating immortals, competition is very fierce. Unless they are friends in times of need and poverty, most monks are friends of interest, and it is difficult to have true feelings.
Even for families like Zhang, Wu, Liu and Zhu who depend on each other, the foundation-building monks also have interests at stake, and they don’t have much real affection for each other.
Back then in Black Mountain, in order to compete for the interests of the third-order elixir recipe, Liang Hanyang personally stepped forward to force Zhang Zhixuan back, and the two parties had conflicts with each other.
He originally thought that Zhang Zhixuan would find an excuse to refuse. If it hadn’t been for the desperate situation, he wouldn’t be able to let go of this face.
Once Patriarch Liang is gone, Black Mountain may not be able to keep it. Even the most precious cultivation resources in his body may have to be sacrificed to ensure safety.
At that time, the only thing Taixu Pavilion can rely on is years of credit. With this credit, Taixu Pavilion can still turn around and maintain the development of the Liang family.
The reason why Zhang Zhixuan was willing to help was because he had his own plans.
Patriarch Liang seems to be in trouble now, but as the number one monk in the Zi Mansion of Yu State, he may not be able to form elixirs. If you buy a good one today when Taixu Pavilion is in decline, they will have to repay this favor at a higher price in the future.
Moreover, the Liang family has three Foundation Establishment Stage monks, and they also have Foundation Establishment Pills in their hands. Even though Patriarch Liang is gone, their family has taken refuge in Qingxuan Sect. It is also a very powerful family, and they can always take advantage of each other.
Zhang Zhixuan was willing to exchange things for things, and Liang Hanyang was less stressed. He first asked Patriarch Liang to borrow six thousand spiritual stones, settled the goods of the Wu and Liu families, and then took Zhang Zhixuan directly to the top floor of Taixu Pavilion. .
During the locust plague in Black Mountain, Taixu Pavilion only saved the top-level spiritual objects. Although these spiritual objects were expensive, they were in small quantities and were far less valuable than the bulk materials at the bottom.
Because there are few foundation-building monks in Black Mountain, it is difficult to take action and turn over these third-order and above spiritual objects. The Qingxuan Sect’s markets generally do not lack these third-level spiritual objects. Everyone has their own way, and it is difficult for Taixu Pavilion to interfere.
Zhang Zhixuan came to the top floor and took a closer look and found a familiar magic weapon. He had seen this magic weapon in Taixu Pavilion thirty years ago and was shocked by its high price for a long time.
This magical weapon is called Xuanyin Gourd, and its grade has reached the third level of high-grade. It can refine Xuanyin True Water. Xuanyin True Water is the nemesis of most fire-attribute spells, and is most suitable for Qing Chan with water spiritual roots.
Qing Chan is a Heavenly Spiritual Root cultivator. Although he can practice quickly and consumes few resources, he can practice relatively few spells. Once someone knows the weaknesses of the Spiritual Root technique, it will be easy to be targeted and restrained.
Although she is the best at restraining monks who use fire-based techniques, on the other hand, if the enemy is too powerful, she can also restrain Qingchan. Therefore, the magic weapon that a water spirit root monk like her needs most is a magic weapon that can restrain fire and earth attributes.
Unfortunately, magic weapons with wood attributes are relatively rare, and most magic weapons are mainly metal and fire attributes. Zhang Zhixuan has been practicing Taoism for many years. Although he has handled more than a dozen magical weapons, he does not have any wooden magical weapons. Naturally, it is impossible to prepare one for Qingchan.
Zhang Zhixuan was quite envious of this water-attribute magic weapon back then, but he didn’t dare to think too much about it because he was embarrassed in his hands. Unexpectedly, thirty years later, this third-level high-grade magical weapon that had been suppressed in Taixu Pavilion for hundreds of years would still fall into Zhang Zhixuan’s hands.
With this magical weapon, whether it is used by Qing Chan or Han Yan, it can exert its maximum power.
Except for the Xuanyin Gourd, Zhang Zhixuan planned to exchange all the materials he brought this time into third-level spiritual objects and leave them to the three foundation-building monks of the family.
Over the years, the three foundation-building monks of the family have been carrying the family on their backs. Fortunately, this time they took the opportunity to let them enjoy the benefits of family practice.
Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan have accumulated more than 4,000 family good deeds over the years. Because the family lacks third-level spiritual objects, these good deeds have never been of much use. This time I purchased the Xuanyin Gourd, just in time to use these good deeds to redeem this spiritual object for Qing Chan.
