Chapter 111 Xianju Planning
"It's getting late. You should go back and rest first. After you sort out the Yin-Yang Five Elements Sutra, give it to Deputy City Lord Xu. That way, you can accept the two hundred contributions with peace of mind."

It was already late at night, and seeing that Li Daoxuan had already prepared a draft, Fang Chen asked him to go back and rest.

Of course, even if Fang Chen said so, Li Daoxuan would definitely not be able to sleep after returning, and would most likely perfect the Five Elements Formula overnight.

Fang Chen was also happy to see this.

He was also looking forward to seeing how the Yin-Yang and Five Elements Secret would be improved compared to the Five Elements Secret.

"Yes."

Li Daoxuan was still very excited. Just as Fang Chen guessed, he was thinking about going back quickly to sort out the Yin-Yang and Five Elements Secret to shock Xu Qiyun.

He strode towards the bamboo door, and as soon as he pushed it open, he saw Lin Qingshan standing outside.

"Deputy City Lord Lin."

Li Daoxuan didn't have much contact with Lin Qingshan. He just bowed respectfully and then ran away.

“Young people are really energetic.”

Seeing Li Daoxuan running out in a hurry, Lin Qingshan shook his head and sighed, then walked to Fang Chen.

"Why are you here at this time?"

Fang Chen looked at Lin Qingshan in surprise. He was already preparing to start meditating and practicing, but he didn't expect Lin Qingshan to come to find him.

"I have been busy setting up the formation until now. I was planning to look for you tomorrow, but I heard Daoxuan's voice downstairs and knew you were still free, so I came up."

Since only Fang Chen and other two people lived on the top two floors of the bamboo building, the soundproofing array between the two floors was temporarily closed.

Anyway, three people won't make any noise at night.

"Is that so? What is it that you have to tell me now?"

After knowing the reason, Fang Chen nodded. It just so happened that he also had something he wanted to find Lin Qingshan for.

However, since Lin Qingshan took the initiative to come to him, he should first listen to what important matter the other party has.

"It's the restriction of the Jieqiao Lingzhu. I have already completed my research, but it can only work on materials with spatial properties."

Lin Qingshan explained the purpose of his visit, which was the research on the Jieqiao Lingzhu that Fang Chen had asked him to do before.

He is done now.

"Oh? In other words, it can be used in the Immortal Palace?"

Fang Chen became interested as soon as he heard it. With the restriction on the Lingzhu of Jie Bridge, the several spaces in the Immortal Palace could be connected.

"of course can."

Lin Qingshan nodded very confidently. In fact, he had already tried it in his own immortal palace.

"How? What's changed?"

Fang Chen also guessed this, so he hurriedly asked about the changes after adding the Boundary Bridge Spirit Bamboo restriction to the Immortal Palace.

"Just talking is too monotonous. Let me transform your Immortal Palace first, and you will know where the changes are."

Lin Qingshan kept it a secret and did not explain it directly to Fang Chen.

"Then please."

Fang Chen trusts Lin Qingshan 100%.

Summon the second generation immortal palace and throw it over.

"You still have to find a way to suck out the blood essence in the Immortal Palace. Not to mention the matter of life and death, the second generation Immortal Palace will eventually become obsolete. It is impossible to use it for a lifetime. What should we do then?"

While Lin Qingshan was working, he also put forward his ideas to Fang Chen.

As a disciple who had been trained as a confidant by the Blood Demon Palace, he knew the flaws of the Soul Fusion Forging Method best. Even though the Second Generation Immortal Palace was a functional magic weapon and would basically never be used in battle, it was still a hidden danger.

Since the rumored blood-sucking magic was just a bait, he didn't dare to persuade Fang Chen to practice it rashly, as that would only cause more problems.

"You're talking about this. It's already been resolved. Don't worry."

When Fang Chen heard Lin Qingshan mention this, he laughed out loud.

The Blood God Vine's control over blood is far beyond ordinary people's imagination. The little bit of essence and blood in the second generation immortal palace had long been absorbed by the Blood God Vine.

Therefore, even if the second-generation immortal palace was destroyed, Fang Chen would not be affected at all.

"That's good!"

Lin Qingshan believed Fang Chen's words 100%. He did not continue to delve into the topic, nor did he ask him how he solved it.

However, he could vaguely guess that it was related to the Blood God Vine.

After all, the body-forging blood vine in his body has always been wary of the blood god vine in Fang Chen's body.

In about a quarter of an hour, Lin Qingshan completed the modification of the second-generation immortal palace. The aura emitted when engraving the restriction also made Fang Chen extremely surprised.

"You have broken through to the third level of Qi training?"

This was indeed something that Fang Chen did not notice at first.

As long as a cultivator in the Qi training stage does not take action, no one can judge the specific situation of his cultivation unless they use spiritual thoughts to investigate.

When Lin Qingshan was engraving the restriction, he leaked his own aura, and Fang Chen was able to detect his cultivation level.

I have already reached the third level of Qi training.

"I made the breakthrough after you left, thanks to the first batch of Qi Gathering Powder produced. Of course, it's also related to the fact that I was already at the Great Perfection of Qi Training. It's normal for me to practice faster than others. Old Xu is only one step away from the second level of Qi Training now."

At this point, Lin Qingshan sighed, threw the second-generation immortal palace to Fang Chen, and then said: "He is already old, I don't know if he can still successfully build the foundation."

Lin Qingshan had once reached the great perfection of Qi training, and breaking through the third level of Qi training was nothing to him, and he did not think it was anything to be happy about.

He is not young now, so he must hurry up to build his foundation to increase his lifespan. Otherwise, he will not be able to see the rise of Yuehua Immortal City and will turn into a handful of earth.

Compared to him, Xu Qiyun faced a more serious situation.

That is to say, Fang Chen had the magical spiritual plant, the Body-Refining Blood Vine, which extended Xu Qiyun's life for a few years. Otherwise, he might not have survived this year.

What’s more important is that Xu Qiyun has no self-awareness at all, and even Fang Chen doesn’t seem to care about this matter, so Lin Qingshan specifically mentioned it to him.

"It depends on his luck."

Fang Chen also understood Lin Qingshan’s meaning, but he couldn’t guarantee that he could help Xu Qiyun succeed in building his foundation 100%.

After all, he hasn't even established his own foundation yet.

There is a consensus among cultivators in the world of self-cultivation that if one has not been able to establish a foundation before the age of sixty, then there is basically no possibility of establishing a foundation.

Xu Qiyun was already in his sixties, but luckily he was a doctor and knew how to keep in good health, so he kept himself in good shape.

After meeting Fang Chen, he embarked on the path of immortality and cured his hidden illness. He also obtained the body-building blood vine to replenish his blood and energy, making him look several years younger.

In other words, he must practice from the first level of Qi training to the great perfection of Qi training within a few years and successfully build a foundation.

Otherwise, it can only be recorded in the history of the beginning of Yuehua Fairy City.

It may sound like a fantasy to cultivate Qigong to perfection within a few years, but in fact it is indeed as difficult as ascending to heaven.

If there were sufficient resources, it would be possible to do so.

The growth cycle of the first-level spiritual plants is not long. As long as the trip to the Star-Moon Sea can obtain the seeds of Yellow Bud Grass and Qi Condensing Flower, as well as the recipes of Yellow Bud Pill and Qi Condensing Pill, everything is possible.

The former is of great help to the improvement of cultivation in the middle stage of Qi training, while the latter can help the cultivators in the late stage of Qi training to quickly improve their cultivation.

With the upcoming harvest of spiritual grains and various spiritual teas and fruits in Yuehua Fairy City, the so-called Arabian Nights' fantasy becomes possible.

That's why Fang Chen said that everything depends on Xu Qiyun's luck.

"Let's not talk about this anymore, City Lord. You should take a look at the changes in the Second Generation Immortal Palace."

After a moment of silence, Lin Qingshan knew it was inappropriate to continue talking about this, so he abruptly changed the subject.

"makes sense."

Fang Chen nodded slightly, released his spiritual thoughts, and began to observe the Second Generation Immortal Residence. As soon as his spiritual thoughts entered it, Fang Chen noticed something different.

The second generation immortal palace seemed to become more agile.

"No, how come we came directly to the main space? It shouldn't be..."

Before he finished speaking, Fang Chen already understood.

The same thing happened in the second-generation immortal palace as in the Yinling space. The seven spaces inside merged together, and there was no so-called five elements space, main space, or external space.

Only a space for the immortal palace was left.

This is also the reason why Fang Chen felt that the Immortal Palace was more spiritual.

The five elements are no longer divided into separate spaces and exist independently, but are mutually generated and restrained in the fairy space, truly achieving the five elements cycle.

In this way, the space of the Immortal Palace appears much more lively.

If you don't even pay special attention to the obvious boundary, you won't be able to tell any difference between this world and the outside world.

Speaking of boundaries, due to the fusion of several spaces, the length, width and height of the second-generation immortal palace have doubled, becoming even wider.

As his perception deepened, Fang Chen discovered that although the five elements space had been integrated into the immortal palace space, their original characteristics were still retained.

The rich fire-attributed spiritual energy still exists, but it is concentrated in the little sun formed by the Red Sun Technique, making the little sun's light even hotter.

However, due to the increased height of the second-generation immortal palace, the light was transmitted to the land below and its temperature was exactly the same as the original one.

As a result, the growth of the spiritual plants therein was not affected.

This is also thanks to the clouds formed by the spiritual rain technique.

However, the rich water-attributed spiritual energy is not in these clouds, but in the small lake in the center of the second-generation immortal palace.

The invisible bubbles bound the spiritual energy, preventing it from spreading to the entire fairy palace space.

The earth-attributed spiritual energy concentrated inside the earth, forming something similar to the core of the earth.

The metallic spiritual energy is also in the land, but it is not concentrated. Instead, it crisscrosses through it like the meridians of the earth.

As for the wood-attributed spiritual energy, Fang Chen didn't find it at first. His spiritual thoughts went back and forth in the second-generation immortal palace many times before he found a new seedling that had just broken through the soil.

It was hiding among the spiritual plants planted by Fang Chen, so inconspicuous that he almost overlooked it.

"What will happen if the five elements' spiritual energy accumulates more and more?"

Sensing these different forms of five-attribute spiritual energy, Fang Chen spoke out with some curiosity.

"Maybe a spiritual creature will be created."

Lin Qingshan obviously knew more about these, so he answered Fang Chen's questions.

"Spiritual creature?"

This was the first time Fang Chen had heard of this concept and he was very interested.

"It is an item with spiritual properties, such as spiritual fire, spiritual water, spiritual earth, spiritual gold, and spiritual wood. When the five internal organs are tempered during the Jindan stage, the spiritual items are integrated into the body, which can make the body comparable to a magic weapon. Moreover, the spiritual items can still grow. It is considered a rare treasure."

Seeing that he was so interested, Lin Qingshan introduced it to him as well.

In fact, he didn't know much about this thing. He only heard it from the direct disciple of the Blood Demon Palace.

"Rare and inexpensive? If everyone in Yuehua Immortal City has an immortal palace, can we mass-produce spiritual objects?"

After hearing this introduction, Fang Chen's eyes lit up instantly.

Combined with his previous plan of building a fairy palace for all staff, rare treasures from the outside world can be produced stably here.

"I'm afraid that's not possible. Spiritual creatures can only be born in a rich and pure spiritual environment, but it doesn't mean that spiritual creatures will be born just by meeting these conditions. It still depends on luck. Moreover, it will take at least hundreds or thousands of years for a spiritual creature to fully take shape."

Lin Qingshan poured a basin of cold water on Fang Chen and told him not to take it for granted.

"The so-called luck is probability. As long as there are enough immortal palaces, there will definitely be a lot of spiritual objects that can be born. As for hundreds or thousands of years, spiritual objects are an investment for the Jindan stage. The lifespan of a Jindan stage cultivator is 500 years. We can definitely afford to wait."

Unexpectedly, Fang Chen was not discouraged at all. Instead, he felt that his plan was more feasible.

"What you said makes sense, but the Immortal Palace is in the hands of every resident of the Immortal City. Even if a spiritual creature is really born, what should we do if they conceal it?"

Lin Qingshan lowered his head and thought for a while, and was convinced by Fang Chen.

But it also raises new questions.

The human heart is unpredictable.

There are few people in Yuehua Fairy City now, and the customs are still very simple. These people own fairy palaces, and even if a spiritual creature is really born in it, they will take the initiative to tell them.

But if we want to produce spiritual objects stably, the number of immortal palaces must not be small. The current number of people in Yuehua Immortal City is definitely not enough.

When there are too many people, it becomes difficult to lead a team.

They also have no means to monitor every person's immortal residence.

By that time, even if a spiritual creature was born in someone’s immortal palace, why should they report it?

Even if you don't need it yourself, you can still make a lot of money by secretly selling it to others.

If Xiancheng itself earns the money at a high price, it will go from being a business with no capital to being a middleman, which is a thankless task.

"That's really a problem."

Fang Chen was also a smart man. He knew that Lin Qingshan was right. He racked his brains to think of a solution, and he finally came up with an idea. He said excitedly, "I got it. Can't we just change the movable property like the Immortal Mansion into immovable property?"

"Movable property? Immovable property?"

Lin Qingshan was a little confused by the two terms he had never heard of before, and he was unable to understand what Fang Chen meant.

"To put it simply, a fairy palace like this storage bag, which can be hung on the body and taken anywhere, is called movable property. If we make the fairy palace in a form that cannot be moved, it is immovable property."

Fang Chen used the Immortal Palace as an example to briefly explain the difference between the two.

“How do I do this?”

Although he understood the difference between movable and immovable property, Lin Qingshan still didn't quite understand what Fang Chen meant.

"We can build a house with a fairy palace inside and name it Xianju. The land inside Xianju can be cultivated by ourselves and the output belongs entirely to ourselves. Do you think the residents of Xiancheng will want to move from the bamboo house to Xianju?"

Fang Chen also started his own explanation, and halfway through, he asked Lin Qingshan a question.

"Of course I want it. Even I am a little tempted."

Lin Qingshan nodded. After moving into Xianju, he had his own independent space, not to mention that he could also obtain all the harvests from the land inside Xianju.

You know, the interior of the immortal residence is the same as the immortal palace, and you hardly need to do anything to take care of the spiritual fields yourself, which saves time and effort.

And thanks to the larger size of the Immortal Residence, it can use more space attribute materials than the storage bag Immortal Mansion, engrave more restrictions, and the internal space will be much larger than the Immortal Mansion.

Even though he already had an immortal palace, Lin Qingshan was willing to move to the immortal residence.

After thinking about it for a while, he also figured out what Fang Chen meant and said, "I roughly understand your idea. Since the immortal residence cannot be moved, it will be easier for us to determine whether a spiritual object has been born in it."

"Not only that, when building each immortal residence, it is best to set up restrictions that can monitor whether spiritual creatures are born. Can this be done?"

Fang Chen proposed further plans.

"Yes, the size of the Immortal Residence is large enough to accommodate monitoring restrictions and formations. Ordinary Immortal Residences cannot do this."

Lin Qingshan gave an affirmative answer without even thinking about it.

"Very good. All buildings from now on will exist in the form of immortal residences. You should also quickly train a group of students who can independently build immortal residences."

Lin Qingshan's answer made Fang Chen very satisfied, and thus the matters concerning the fairy residence in Yuehua Fairy City were finalized.

　Today's chapter is 4,000 words long. Mainly because I was celebrating my birthday and having dinner with colleagues after get off work, so the update is a little late. Please forgive me.

　　The plot of the Qi training period will be rather dragged out, because a lot of foreshadowing is laid here, including the trade channels with the Star Moon Sea, the battle between immortals and demons, the Moon Goddess Chamber of Commerce, the ghost realm, the Immortal Palace, etc., etc. In addition, the protagonist's aptitude is not good and he needs resources to improve his cultivation. Many resources cannot appear out of thin air, so I have to lay the groundwork for talents in all aspects to make the appearance of future resources reasonable. The foundation should be laid within the next one hundred chapters, and Fang Chen will also begin to truly transform the world of cultivation.
