Chapter 95 Snow Jade Ginseng (15)
When Master Qingyun discovered that Duan Tianya had taken action, it was already too late. He shouted, "Duan Tianya, aren't you afraid of the backlash from your inner demon?"
"Hehe, the oath I swore just now said that I would leave after that, but it is not effective until I leave." Duan Tianya raised a cunning smile with a fierce look on his face. He slashed down with one blow and tried to escape.
But suddenly, he was surprised to find that after he made his move, only a few noises were heard from Yunwu Mountain, and then there was no more movement.
Duan Tianya had a shocked expression. Even though he had consumed most of his strength and Yunwu Mountain was protected by a second-order formation, this attack should at least be able to kill those Foundation Establishment scabs on the mountaintop.
Why are those people from Yunwu Mountain still standing there?
The top of the cloudy mountain.
Chen An exhaled a breath of foul air. The sword shadow of the Jindan demon cultivator was no trivial matter.
But he was no pushover. He mobilized the formation to dissipate some of the power, and then activated the prototype of the magic weapon to take on the last part of the sword shadow. Only then did he manage to withstand it without any danger.
But the price was that several sets of formations in Yunwu Mountain were destroyed. This was not a big problem. They could be replenished by growing a few Phantom Light Grasses.
If he was not unwilling to use the Changhong sword energy blatantly, he could have resisted this attack from his weakest strength with one strike. But if Duan Tianya still refused to let go, Chen An could only fight back reluctantly.
But Chen Qing and the others on the side were not so relaxed. They were all terrified.
It was not until a long time after the sword shadow disappeared that they came to their senses and turned to look at Chen An.
If he hadn't been there, Chen Qing and his companions would probably have died on the spot!
Outside the misty mountain.
Master Qingshan watched Duan Tianya leave after the sneak attack, but he could do nothing.
He is already at the end of his strength, if he continues to fight he will be really desperate, I'm sure the opponent won't be much better off.
After the other party completely disappeared, he moved and came to the top of the misty mountain.
"You are quite strong. I thought you couldn't withstand this attack." Master Qingshan looked at Chen An with admiration in his eyes.
When several people saw each other coming, they greeted each other.
Chen An bowed and said, "It's a coincidence that I have met Senior Qingshan. If you hadn't worn away most of the demon cultivator's strength, I wouldn't have been able to withstand that fierce attack."
"The strength of Yunwu Mountain is acceptable. When Duan Tianya and I break into the secret realm, I can give your Chen family a few places to enter." Taoist Qingshan nodded. In his opinion, there are quite a few foundation-building cultivators in Yunwu Mountain, who can be used to assist in fighting against the demon cultivators in the secret realm.
"Thank you, senior." The other party promised the quota easily, so how could Chen An not know the other party's intention.
His eyes rolled and he said with a sad face, "It's just that the demon cultivator seems to hold a grudge against Yunwu Mountain. If they are attacked again, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you much."
"Don't worry, I'm watching. Duan Tianya won't act rashly again!"
Seeing that the other party understood his situation, Master Qingshan was in a good mood. He casually glanced at the spiritual fields in Beishan and was slightly surprised, but said nothing.
It's just a third-tier spiritual field. No matter how well you cultivate it, it will only become a place for Qingyun Sect to supply spiritual medicines.
Master Qingshan warned Chen An not to spread the secrets of the secret realm at will, then he jumped into the sky, turned into a beam of light, and flew away quickly.
After getting the other party's promise, Chen An felt relieved.
He raised his head and looked in the direction where True Man Qingshan left, his expression was uncertain. The Qingyun Sect and the Yinmo Sect were not good people!
The other party was so kind to give him the Chen family quota, but he didn't believe that the other party was kind-hearted. It was most likely that they were using them as cannon fodder.
At this point, the right path is to break through the late stage of foundation building as soon as possible, and then complete the foundation building, and finally form the elixir.
He didn't want to be manipulated like a chess piece again.
"What should we do now?"
Chen Qing and his companions were not stupid either, so they could naturally understand Master Qingshan's intention. When everyone entered the secret realm, they, who were at the bottom of the foundation-building stage, would inevitably become cannon fodder.
Chen An took a deep breath and said, "Although the other party's intentions are not pure, we still have to enter the secret realm. Firstly, there are indeed a lot of resources in the secret realm, even if we can get a part of it, it will be enough for us to use. Secondly, Master Qingshan has already said so, how can we stay out of it?" There are generally third-level spiritual medicines and spiritual seeds in the secret realm, which is also an opportunity.
"The secret realm is not so easy to break into. Without the help of other sects, it will take at least a few years for the two of them to prepare. You should all go and practice, and try your best to improve your cultivation to have more protection."
After giving the order, Chen An left the top of the mountain, returned to his cave, and practiced hard behind closed doors.
In the blink of an eye, the weeds in front of Chen An's cave withered and grew again.
News came that some time ago, Master Qingshan and Duan Tianya stayed around the secret realm for three months, and finally found a way to break into the secret realm by some unknown method.
At this time, Zhao Hu sent a secret letter to inform Chen An.
Immediately, Chen An called a few people together to agree on the number of places. It was not mandatory and everyone could sign up automatically.
Chen Qing and Chen Zishun may be old and just want to play it safe, so they did not speak.
However, Chen Fengshuo, Chen Youliang, Chen Maoxin and the siblings Chen Wen and Chen Rou were all interested and expressed their willingness to explore the secret realm.
Chen An thought that this was a suitable approach, so he let Chen Qing and Chen Zishun stay in Yunwu Mountain to retain their strength, and let a few motivated young people go ahead and make their own breakthroughs.
As for Chen An himself, he was naturally guarding Yunwu Mountain.
The quota was agreed upon and the matter was done, so Chen An dispersed the crowd.
Just after I got off the top of the mountain, I suddenly heard two monks coming to the foot of the misty mountain.
He walked to the foot of the mountain, bowed to the two men and the tiger, and said jokingly: "What a rare guest! What brings you two Taoist friends here?"
Wang Feihu snorted: "It is naturally the wind from the secret realm."
"Fellow Daoist, be careful with your words. This is not the place to talk. Follow me to the top of the mountain."
Chen An waved his hand to interrupt Wang Feihu and led the two to the attic on the top of Yunwu Mountain to discuss the matter.
As cannon fodder, Xu and Wang had naturally been invited by Qingyun Sect to enter the secret realm. The purpose of their coming here was self-evident.
It is nothing more than joining the cooperation of the three families, taking care of each other after entering the secret realm, jointly resisting the evil cultivators, and obtaining more resources.
Chen An did not hold too high hopes for this. Most of the high-end cultivators of several families were in the early or middle stages of foundation building, and only Xu Yuanlang was in the late stage of foundation building. It was already good enough that most of the people could come back alive, and there was still room for hope for any gains.
"The talismans that Fellow Daoist Chen sold me before are very useful. I wonder if you could give me a few more?" Wang Feihu rubbed his hands, feeling a little embarrassed.
At this time, even if Chen An had a second-level talisman, he would give priority to supplying it to his own family and it was hard to say whether he could give it to them.
"Yes, I do, but I don't know what treasures you two fellow Taoists can take out in exchange." Chen An did not refuse, but waited for the price.
Over the years, Lingtian provided the raw materials, and Chen Dazhuang provided talisman paper continuously. He used his spare time to make quite a few second-level talismans, and even if he gave them to the Chen family members who were about to enter the secret realm, there would be a lot left over.
Moreover, with his current strength, second-level talismans are of little help to him, and there is no point in keeping too many on him.
Xu Yuanlang subconsciously glanced outside the attic and said in a deep voice, "I have a 40-year-old snow jade bone ginseng. I wonder how many talismans I can exchange for it?"
Snow Jade Ginseng is a third-level spiritual plant that can be used to refine elixirs that help Jindan cultivators improve their cultivation. It is very rare.
The third-level spiritual medicines in Qingyun Domain are monopolized by Qingyun Sect, and there is no way to obtain them. Unless you go deep into the Black Wind Mountains, it is possible to pick one or two.
"You two are so generous, I wonder how many talismans you want to exchange for."
Chen An raised his eyes to look at the other party and pushed the question back. The value of the third-level elixir is difficult to estimate, and any more or less would not be appropriate.
