Cao Yongle then asked, "What basic formation stone do you want to be engraved on?"
"I sincerely ask my uncle for some advice." Jiang Ping'an said.
He has no idea what basic formation stones there are and which basic formation stones are easy to engrave.
Cao Yongle smiled and said, "My name is Cao Yongle."
Jiang Ping'an immediately raised his hands and saluted. "Disciple Jiang Ping'an pays homage to Master Cao."
Cao Yongle bowed his head slightly and said, "No need to be polite."
He continued, "This is the first time you accept the task of carving formation stones. You are required to carve one in the first month. If you fail to press five spiritual stones, you will not be refunded. If the task is completed, you will have to engrave at least five formation stones every month. If you have less than five formation stones, you will be deducted for spiritual stones or good deeds. If you have one less, you will be deducted for three hundred taels of gold or three good deeds. You must carve a hundred formation stones in total before you can apply to end the task."
Jiang Ping'an asked, "Dare I ask Uncle Cao, is there a map of the formation stones to be engraved on?"
"Reminder that the basic formation stone map, no matter how advanced it is, is not provided, you need to use spiritual stones and good deeds to purchase it." Cao Yongle said.
Cao Yongle continued, "Among the basic formation stones, Five Elements Basic Array Stone is relatively simple, but the reward is relatively cheap. Engraving one piece will give you three hundred taels of gold or three good deeds. Spirit Gathering Basic Array Stone is more complicated. Engraving one piece will give you five hundred taels of gold or five good deeds. Which basic formation stone do you want to choose to engrave?"
The talisman array was connected, and when he saw that Jiang Ping'an was so young, he was an intermediate Talisman Master, so of course he was happy to be a favor. This kind of favor did not even require any effort on his part.
Jiang Ping'an said without hesitation, "Spirit Gathering Array stone."
"Spirit Gathering Array Stone is relatively complicated. Are you sure you can learn it within a month?" Cao Yongle asked.
Jiang Ping'an: "OK."
Cao Yongle then took out a task token with an engraved stone formation and a jade slip and handed it to Jiang Ping'an: "Spirit Gathering Array The stone map is inside the jade slip. After you understand, come to the workshop, Find Wang Jinzhen who is responsible for engraving Spirit Gathering Array stones. At that time, the jade will be briefly returned to Wang Jinzhen. By the way, the formation stone map must not be passed on to anyone, otherwise the nine tribes will be killed."
"Thank you, Uncle Cao." Jiang Ping'an accepted the mission token and jade slip.
Cao Yongle continued, "According to the procedure, you still need to swear to Heaven in front of me not to leak the Jugeng Formation Stone Map."
Jiang Ping'an I have nothing to say, I swear as required.
After leaving Array Stone Engraving Workshop, Jiang Ping'an did not intend to return to the temporary free accommodation, and simply rode directly to Mirror Lake Mountain.
Mirror Lake Mountain shows a distance of more than ten miles on the sect map, but in fact due to the winding mountain roads, the distance is more than twenty miles.
Jiang Ping'an rode a stick of incense before arriving at Mirror Lake Mountain.
I saw Mirror Lake Mountain covered with light fog all year round, with a clear pool of Mirror Lake embedded on the top of the mountain. The lake reflected the sky and clouds, and the spiritual energy flowed with the waves. The ancient trees in the mountains were vigorous, The branches are hung with dew-condensed spiritual grass, and the stream gurgling through the bluestones. The clear sound of the water soothes the mind. The wind blowing through the forest tops carries the fragrance of the grass and trees, which is elegant and quiet. It is best to concentrate on resting and absorbing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.
"Good place." Jiang Ping'an rode up the mountain road and couldn't help but sigh, "It is indeed one of Seven Great Immortal Sects. A mere Mirror Lake Mountain is much better than Mount Tai Ming."
Along the mountain ring road, Jiang Ping'an climbed to the top of the mountain and came to a lake that was as calm as a mirror, reflecting the white clouds in the sky and the flying birds, and then found a pavilion to sit down.
He made an appointment with the tenant to meet in the evening, but it was still early now, only after noon.
Jiang Ping'an took out a tea set from Storage Bag, took water from Mirror Lake, and then used Flame Technique to make tea. After a while, Spirit Tea was finished cooking, and the fragrant and quiet aroma of tea wafted away with the heat.
Jiang Ping'an poured himself a glass, and then looked at the scenery towards Mirror Lake.
Although it was just after noon, there was still mist on the Mirror Lake, which showed that this lake was not simple. When he was getting water just now, he noticed that the lake water was relatively cold.
The gentle breeze blows, and layers of water mist are blown to the pavilion, making the pavilion become hazy, like a fairyland.
After sipping two cups of tea while admiring the picturesque scenery, Jiang Ping'an took out the Spirit Gathering Array stone picture and jade slip, gently put it on his forehead, and read it with Spiritual Sense.
The Spirit Gathering Array stone picture is indeed more complicated. Jiang Ping'an found that Spirit Gathering Array is much more complicated than Great Barrens World.
"Perhaps Dream Realm's world spiritual energy is not as abundant as Great Barrens's vitality, and a stronger and more complex formation is needed to achieve a relatively ideal effect." Jiang Ping'an secretly said.
Half an hour later, Jiang Ping'an finished reading the Spirit Gathering Array stone map.
However, he didn't immediately use the panel and fully grasp the Proficiency Points.
Azure Origin Sect But Demonic Path and Mystic Array Peak may be less cunning, but they are still not very safe. The pavilion next to Mirror Lake has no protection, and anyone can come in suddenly.
Put away the jade slips, Jiang Ping'an continue to drink tea, admire the scenery, and kill time.
The sun was setting in the west, burning the clouds in the western sky red, and then making the clouds and fog on Mirror Lake shine red. Jiang Ping'an left Mirror Lake and led the horse to find Cave Mansion A.
Cave Mansion A To the east of Mirror Grotto Mountain, dozens of feet down from the top of the mountain, there is a relatively gentle hillside, and a large platform has been built in front of the cave.
Due to the obstruction of the magic circle, Jiang Ping'an cannot go directly to the gate of the cave.
Jiang Ping'an pulled the silver bell rope and heard a string of crisp and sweet silver bells.
Not long after, the magic circle opened, and a road leading to the cave door appeared, and Jiang Ping'an walked in.
In front of the cave, under a leafy apricot tree, sitting in front of a stone table was a powerful and beautiful woman.
Her eyebrows were slanted with crimson, her eyes were like quenched peach blossoms, her pupils glowed with cold red light, and her eyelashes cast a charming shadow. Her nose was straight, her lips were a rich cinnabar color, as if she had drank blood, her skin was whiter than snow but cold white, her hair was tied up like ink silk, with a bone jade hairpin inserted sideways, and a dark red agate tassel.
She has a graceful figure but hides explosive power. She is dressed in black gold Magic Robe that outlines graceful curves. The hem of her clothes is embroidered with a dark gold mandala pattern, and is covered with black gauze as thin as cicada wings. When she walks, the gauze skirt flutters like the wings of a bat.
Her temperament is enchanting and ruthless, with a cold fragrance lingering around her body, but it hides a deadly poisonous intention. When she is standing quietly, she is like a thorny manju and sandalwood, so beautiful that it makes people suffocate. The unruly and ruthless look in her eyes also reveals the danger of keeping away from strangers. She is naturally charming but has hidden murderous intentions.
Jiang Ping'an was a little surprised when he saw that it was a female cultivator, and he guessed that there was a high probability that they would not be able to share the apartment.
However, with the mentality of coming back, Jiang Ping'an still walked over.
Dongfang Jintang glanced at Jiang Ping'an, feeling a little surprised that the tenant was actually a newcomer who hadn't had time to change into the Azure Origin Sect's clothes.
"Are all newcomers so rich these days?" She thought to herself, "However, although his cultivation level is low, his temperament is noble, and he is not timid when he sees me. Could it be that he is a direct descendant of a large family of cultivators?"
Jiang Ping'an came to a place more than two feet away from Dongfang Jintang and stopped, cupped his hands and bowed slightly. "Jiang Ping'an, hello Fairy, I am the one who wants to share the cave with you."
Dongfang Jintang A look of ridicule suddenly appeared on the cold and charming Xue's face, and she said, "A dragon does not share a cave with a snake. Even with a mere mid-term cultivation Spirit Aperture Realm, you dare to share a cave with others. Aren't you afraid that I will be in a bad mood and kill you casually?"
"I'm not afraid." Jiang Ping'an said with a smile.
Dongfang Jintang immediately raised his hand, and a huge ice pick with cold light pierced towards Jiang Ping'an with the sound of breaking through the air, as fast as lightning.
Jiang Ping'an With a thought, five flying knives flew out instantly, forming a rotating cone shape to meet the ice cone.
clang clang clang...
The flying knife shattered the huge and iron-hard ice pick.
The ice powder was scattered one after another. Jiang Ping'an smiled at Dongfang Jintang and said, "Although my cultivation level is low, I am not a snake."
Dongfang Jintang said, "It's interesting. Since you are not afraid of death, then move in. You pay three months' rent first."
