Chapter 194 Tianxing City, Fifteen Years
The teleportation array in Chaos Star Sea is quite expensive, and one teleportation costs several thousand spirit stones.
Of course, this is the total price for one transfer.
Generally, transmission will be enabled only when there are enough people.
If you want to transfer it in advance, that's fine too, you just have to pay more.
Qin Feng didn't want to attract attention, so he naturally wouldn't spend money to make up the difference.
So I waited for a while before getting on the teleportation array.
Generally speaking, when a person is teleported by a teleportation array, he or she will feel very uncomfortable.
After all, changing space abruptly feels like being thrown into a fast-spinning washing machine.
Of course, the people from Xinggong will give everyone a teleportation talisman.
This thing can protect the person being teleported and prevent them from having too violent a reaction, while also preventing them from being pulled by the force of space.
That’s right, people are not absolutely safe when being teleported.
It's okay for short distances, and there is generally no danger. However, if it is a long-distance transmission, without the protection of a teleportation talisman, safety problems may easily arise.
But Qin Feng is different!
Perhaps it was because he had been in that special space before, so he was somewhat familiar with this kind of space.
Even without the protection of the teleportation talisman, he would not be affected by this power.
'call out'
As the teleportation array flashed, Qin Feng and his group appeared in the teleportation array of Tianxing City.
Yuan Yao's face was pale, while Qin Feng's was calm.
As soon as a few people walked out of the teleportation array, someone came up to them and said something.
"My fellow Taoists, this senior from Tianxing City, please come this way!"
Halfway through the conversation, the man discovered that Qin Feng's cultivation was actually at the Golden Core Stage, and he hurriedly came forward with a respectful look on his face.
"Senior, please come with me!"
This person led Qin Feng and Yuan Yao aside separately, while the remaining cultivators were received by other people.
A Jindan cultivator is considered a top figure in the Chaos Star Sea, so the treatment he enjoys is different.
For example, the residence qualifications of Tianxing City are divided into permanent residence and temporary residence.
If you are a cultivator in the Jindan stage, you will automatically obtain permanent residence status, free of charge.
If you want to live here permanently if you are below the Jindan stage, you need to pay eight hundred spirit stones!
If you stay temporarily for seven days, you only need to pay three spirit stones.
Qin Feng and Yuan Yao are one a Jindan cultivator and one a foundation-building cultivator.
By paying only 800 spirit stones, he obtained two permanent residence qualification rings, the bright red ones.
In addition, the receptionist also gave Qin Feng a jade slip with a map of Tianxing City engraved on it.
After taking a quick glance at the map, Qin Feng immediately had a general understanding of the city.
How should I put it, is Tianxing City big?
Of course big!
It is so big that it exceeds the city limits.
At least in Qin Feng's memory, cities like Shangjing City, Wuhun City, and Kyoto are just younger brothers compared to Tianxing City.
Not to mention comparing with Tianxing City, even the three cities on Xiaoyue Island are much larger than those places in Wuhun City.
If we must call this Tianxing City a city, then it can only be called a giant city.
Its area is so large that even if he were to fly a flying boat over the city, it would take a long time to get from the top of the city to the back.
Tianxing City is a huge circular city, surrounding the holy mountain in the center and expanding outward in circles.
Of course, those are the first and most important floors of Tianxing City.
There are strongholds of various sects here, as well as markets, auction houses, alchemy rooms and other places.
Each time the holy mountain circles from bottom to top, it becomes a layer, and there are a total of eighty-one layers.
Except for the first floor, the second to the fiftieth floors are open to outside cultivators. As long as you have spirit stones, you can rent a place to practice.
The last thirty floors are reserved for the monks of the Star Palace to live in, and the higher the status, the higher the living space.
As for the highest level, it is the Holy Palace, where the Two Saints of the Star Palace reside. It is said that the combined strength of the Two Saints of the Star Palace is enough to rival the Divine Transformation cultivators!
For an ordinary cultivator in the Chaos Star Sea, if he could be summoned by the Twin Saints of Heavenly Stars, it would be something he could brag about for the rest of his life.
The holy mountain itself is a natural giant spiritual vein. The higher you go, the richer the spiritual energy becomes.
Therefore, when choosing a cave, the higher the number of floors, the better.
After Qin Feng and Yuan Yao came out of the teleportation array, they immediately went to the foot of the Holy Mountain, where there was an agency that specialized in renting and selling Holy Mountain cave residences.
The one who received Qin Feng was a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Although these cultivators belonging to the Star Palace were only at the Foundation Establishment stage, they were very respectful when facing Qin Feng.
But deep down, Qin Feng could see a hint of arrogance hidden deep in them.
This arrogance was not deliberately displayed, but was natural to them because of the prestige that Xinggong had built up over a long period of time.
After all, they are the largest sect in Chaos Star Sea, and this title alone is enough to make them fearless of any independent cultivator.
Of course, if facing a Nascent Soul cultivator, these people are still very humble.
After all, a Nascent Soul cultivator is like the sky in the Chaos Star Sea, and everyone will show him utmost respect.
"I wonder which floor of the Holy Mountain you would like to rent? The higher you go, the more expensive it will be!"
"Is there a ready-made cave? I want one with higher floors." Qin Feng asked.
Although the formations he has are useful, most of them are the kind that cannot be seen in public, so it is better to buy a finished cave dwelling directly.
"Senior, wait a moment."
As he spoke, the foundation-building cultivator hurriedly began to look for it.
Soon he said, "There is one on the thirty-fifth floor, three on the thirty-seventh floor, and one on the forty-eighth floor. Here are their prices and the structure and function of the cave."
As he spoke, the monk took out several white jade slips and placed them in front of Qin Feng.
Looking at Qin Feng thinking, the monk continued.
“Senior! Although we cannot say that the spiritual vein of our Holy Mountain is the best in Chaos Star Sea, it is undoubtedly among the top five!”
"Even if you practice at the foot of the Holy Mountain, the speed is faster than the best section of the general spiritual vein. After the 30th level, the speed of practice is even more terrifying, and it can be increased by more than a quarter!"
"Although these caves are expensive, they are definitely worth the money!"
A quarter?
So that’s 25 percent?
This increase is just the simple improvement of the spirit vein. If the spirit gathering array is added, it will be at least more than 30%.
This cultivation speed is simply terrifying. At least when I was in Feiling Sect, the speed of my spiritual veins could not be compared to this.
"It's this one with forty-eight floors!" Qin Feng said, pointing to the jade slip on the far right.
If you can choose the highest one, you should naturally choose the highest one, after all, the spiritual energy is more concentrated.
"Okay, only 4,500 Spiritual Stones are needed!"
The monk who received him spoke quickly and swiftly with a hint of excitement in his tone.
Thousands of spirit stones are already a big deal, and he gets a lot of commission, so he is happy. In Chaos Star Sea, the majority of cultivators are in the Qi Refining Stage, followed by the Foundation Establishment Stage.
As for the Jindan stage and above, the number begins to decrease sharply.
How many spirit stones can a Qi-refining or foundation-building cultivator earn in a year?
The rental of these caves with more than thirty floors starts from a hundred years, and requires several thousand spirit stones at a time. Ordinary cultivators simply cannot afford it, so it takes a long time to sell one.
But for a Jindan cultivator, this price is not expensive, and is even very cost-effective.
It’s only a few thousand spirit stones, but this cave can be rented for a hundred years.
If you really convert it, it’s only forty-five spirit stones a year, which is a very affordable price.
Just like that, after completing the formalities, Qin Feng led Yuan Yao straight to the 48th floor.
Holding the jade slip, he directly opened the restriction of the cave.
The formation of this cave is quite powerful. Although it is not as powerful as his Five Elements Maze Formation, it is not much weaker.
Qin Feng used this formation as the surface, and also arranged a set of five elements maze formation inside, so that the cave was safe.
"Go ahead. That's your room. You are not allowed to leave until you enter the Jindan stage. Do you understand?"
As soon as Qin Feng came in, he pointed to the side of the cave and said.
"Yes, Master!" Yuan Yao bowed and accepted the order, then ran straight away.
She had too many things to do, and even if Qin Feng didn't urge her, she would rush to practice.
After all, the hope of forming a pill is right before her eyes, and she won't miss it.
As for her senior sister Yanli, it was useless for her to be anxious about this matter, as the master had already taken action to stabilize her soul. As for what would happen in the future, she could only think of other ways.
Therefore, now, the most important thing for Yuan Yao is to improve his cultivation.
Only when she becomes stronger will she have more choices.
Qin Feng said that after arriving at the new cave, he immediately transformed it to make it more in line with his own wishes.
Afterwards, he was not in a hurry to practice.
Instead, he went down the mountain and went to Tianxing City to sell the things he didn't want, and then bought a batch of materials.
He was planning to practice refining equipment and formations when he was bored. These techniques are quite useful.
Especially the formation, which can give you the upper hand in battle.
He was being hunted by Elder Zhou before, but the Golden Wave Formation was controlled by the other party. It was really terrifying.
If his formation was powerful, this wouldn't have happened.
In addition, Qin Feng also spent a few days inquiring about the things happening in various places in the Chaos Star Sea and had a certain understanding of the outside world.
Of course, he was just asking around normally, without asking about any particular aspect in particular, and it didn't attract any attention at all.
However, he also did one extra thing, which was to go to the 30th or 40th floor and take a walk around.
As for the reason, it’s very simple!
Of course, it was to find Han Li.
He remembered that Han Li also found a high-level cave, which should be on this holy mountain now.
He didn't know where exactly it was. After all, the mountain was so huge that it was impossible for him to search it thoroughly.
However, after walking around a few times, he had a rough guess about Han Li's location.
But the range of this position is still very large, and Qin Feng has hundreds of candidate positions.
If I remember correctly, Han Li should be in the process of achieving the Jindan stage, which is a critical moment, so he should not be able to see outsiders casually.
Speaking of which, Han Li was very naive at the beginning.
But because Doctor Mo and Li Feiyu taught him two lessons, he became suspicious by nature.
Qin Feng could use some means to find Han Li at this moment, but then what?
The other party is in seclusion, so even if he sends a message in, they won't be able to meet.
He could certainly force his way in with his strength, but without a suitable reason, not only would he be unable to bring the two closer, but he would also make the other person afraid of him and run away.
Of course, Qin Feng can use force.
After all, his strength is much stronger than Han Li's now, and he has countless ways to make Han Li worship him as his master.
But is this kind of master-disciple relationship really healthy?
How is he different from Ji Yin?
In fact, Qin Feng had thought about one thing, which was to use the 100% Dan-forming Hunyuan Gong to lure him to meet him, and then make other plans.
By doing this, Qin Feng has a good chance of successfully accepting him as his apprentice.
But the greater possibility is to induce Han Li to escape.
After all, he is too steady. Faced with such unprovoked kindness to him, Han Li's first thought is definitely what Qin Feng's purpose is!
So in the end Qin Feng thought about it and decided that now was not the time to meet Han Li.
Just wait a little longer until you break through the Nascent Soul stage.
By then, it should be easier to accept Han Li as a disciple.
In fact, didn’t Han Li also want to have a master as his backer?
He still envies the feeling of having someone to back him up, so that he doesn't have to run away when things get bad, and there's someone to cover for him if he makes a mistake.
The most important thing is that you won’t be beaten to death for no reason.
As the saying goes, don't look at the monk's face, look at the Buddha's face. As long as he has a master, Han Li will no longer be a rootless duckweed.
It’s a pity that he has never met a master who is truly kind to him.
If there really was a Nascent Soul cultivator who wanted to take him in as a disciple and treated him sincerely, given Han Li's personality, he would definitely repay the other person tenfold or a hundredfold.
When it comes to repaying favors, Han Li is still very reliable.
Thinking of this, Qin Feng returned to his cave and began his retreat.
There wasn't much for him to do during his retreat, the most important of which was naturally to practice the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir Technique!
He wanted to strive to condense nine golden patterns as soon as possible and then break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
After that, he practiced the Ink Shadow Sword Technique, Giant Elephant Technique, Wind Control Technique and other magical powers and moves.
As for the formation, he would also take time to study it.
He will learn how to refine weapons only when he has some free time.
After all, refining equipment is a very time-consuming task, even more time-consuming than refining pills. It is useless to him for the time being, so it is better to slow down.
In this way, Qin Feng returned to his cave and began his retreat.
As the saying goes, time does not exist in practice, and fifteen years passed quickly.
People's perception of time is different at different times.
When you were in elementary school, a month occupied a huge proportion in your world, and a summer vacation seemed very long to you.
When you were in high school, your summer vacation was taken up by all kinds of cram schools, which made the time feel longer and a bit torturous.
After college, your vacations seem to pass by in the blink of an eye.
But when you enter society, the days at work seem like years, but when you get off work you can't control the time, and you lose your sense of time.
Obviously a year is a very long time, but somehow, before I knew it, a year had passed in the blink of an eye.
And this is the case with Qin Feng now. Obviously fifteen years is a very long time.
But he was busy with this and that, and the time passed quickly, and he didn't feel how much time had passed.
