The green light that came rapidly circled in front of the Xuanqing Guanshan Gate, and then fell outside the gate. The light dissipated, revealing a young man in a green shirt. He was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with dark skin and ordinary appearance. His long hair was tied up at the back of his head, but he looked extremely capable.
The person who came was none other than Li Yan. He had actually arrived here yesterday. However, he saw a city here on the map, so he went directly there to see if he could have any luck finding the materials he needed. However, he spent a whole day wandering around the city without any gains, so he had to be disappointed and take a look at what happened before and after. The people followed and left Defang City, but it was already dark. Considering that the teleportation array would not be opened in the middle of the night, they found a cave to sit cross-legged and meditate. They arrived at Xuanqing Temple early this morning. Looking at the mottled handwriting on the mountain gate, Li Yan nodded, confirming that he was in the right place.
Kong Nantai looked at the green light breaking through the sky outside the mountain gate, and there was no surprise on his face. Although Xuanqing Sect was not a famous sect, nor did it specialize in refining weapons and talismans, it was good at formations and had considerable knowledge of defensive formations and short-distance teleportation formations. Their Daoist temple was also quite famous in the world of immortality.
There is a market two hundred miles away from the Daoist temple. The Daoist priests of Xuanqing Temple also need to accumulate cultivation resources. Seeing this, they spent a lot of money to build two teleportation arrays in the Daoist temple and develop them externally. In this way, there will be many outsiders every day. The purpose of monks entering and leaving Xuanqing Temple is to borrow the teleportation array in their Daoist temple. Although there are teleportation arrays in the city, the teleportation fee is too expensive. Many monks still like to teleport to Xuanqing Temple and then fly two hundred miles there by themselves. This can save unconscious spiritual stones. This is also a way for Xuanqing Temple to make money. With the ancestor Golden Core Realm Daxiu in charge of the temple, Fangshi will not offend him easily.
It was just that a monk came over so early in the morning, but a trace of surprise flashed across Kong Nantai's face. He lost interest after Divine Sense. The other party was only Qi Condensation Stage cultivation level. He turned back to a disciple behind him and shouted, "Go and ask him what he is here for?"
A young Daoist priest immediately flashed out from behind him. After bowing respectfully, he flew out of the mountain gate.
Li Yan stood quietly outside the mountain gate. He had already seen a group of people patrolling inside the mountain gate. As expected, after the other party saw him, one of them flew towards him.??
The young Daoist priest soon arrived in front of Li Yan. When he came over, Divine Sense had already glanced at Li Yan's cultivation level. He was actually a little higher than him. He raised one palm, bowed his head, and said with a smile, "This fellow Daoist, Please, I wonder why you came to Xuanqing Temple?" He was very polite to Li Yan. In fact, they had already guessed Li Yan's purpose, and it was just a routine inquiry. These guests are a major source of spiritual stones in the Daoist temple, so they should be polite to the host.
"Oh, I wonder if there is a teleportation formation heading towards Linshui City in your temple?" Li Yan said, with a trace of anxiety on his expression.
"Oh, there are two teleportation arrays in this temple, one facing the north and one facing the east. Daoist friends said that Linshui City is the last teleportation node to the north, so it can be reached." The young Daoist priest couldn't help but smile even more when he heard about the place where Li Yan was going to teleport. This is the farthest place to the north that their teleportation array can reach. The teleportation spirit stone is valuable.
"Oh, how many spirit stones are needed?" Li Yan looked more worried on his face.
Upon seeing this, the young Daoist priest had already guessed the origin of Li Yan.
</di>
This Qi Condensation Stage monk must be in a hurry. Judging from the speed at which he flew just now, there is nothing good about Flying Spiritual Treasure or Dharma Treasure, but he is in a hurry. He is worried about his own spiritual stone. "
The smile on his face grew wider. "Since you are here, fellow Daoist, you should know that our Daoist temple is the only two teleportation places nearby, and you know that the price of teleportation at our temple is fair. Otherwise, fellow Daoist would not come here. This teleportation to Linshui City is nearly 8,000 miles away. It takes one person to Three hundred low-level spiritual stones are enough, but this needs to be explained clearly to fellow Daoists. Generally, at least six people in the same direction can be used to activate a teleportation array. But fellow daoists, please rest assured that the number of people will basically be gathered every half day. Of course, if you have gathered five closest nodes, The spiritual stone can also be transported separately from where you want to go." After that, he looked at Li Yan carefully with a smile. He was confident that the price he quoted was not too expensive. Although the difference between eight thousand miles and ten thousand miles was not much, it was more than ten thousand. The construction of the teleportation array here is completely different. It requires extremely high attainments in space formations to deploy. Even every extra mile may cause spatial deviation. As the saying goes, "A slight difference is a thousand miles away." Teleportation spiritual stones are calculated starting from a thousand pieces.
The teleportation array is divided into single-node teleportation and multi-node teleportation. Single-node teleportation arrays are the most common. They are usually used by the sect itself for fixed-point teleportation. Just fill in the spirit stones and activate the array. Multi-node teleportation is usually used by cultivators in chambers of commerce. Multiple exits are established in one direction. The person being teleported is branded with a node before entering the teleportation array. Whenever a node is reached, the imprint senses the aura of the corresponding node and teleports the person out without affecting others at all. People who are teleporting at the same time, but if someone cancels the brand on their body, the consequences are unimaginable. The teleportation becomes undirected teleportation. Usually after reaching the last node of the teleportation array, they are unable to teleport out and are randomly teleported into the turbulent space. Once there, it is difficult to have a chance to survive.
In the Mortal Realm, the transmission array is divided into three categories: one is short-distance transmission, usually within ten thousand miles, the other is medium-distance transmission, which is within one hundred thousand miles, and the third is long-distance transmission, also Mortal Realm The farthest distance is within a million miles. This is just a generalization. As far as Li Yan knows, the entire Desolate Moon Continent, even like Wangliang Sect, is only seven hundred thousand miles away. Li Yan has also been read in the classics. In ancient times, there was an ultra-long-distance teleportation array that could teleport up to tens of millions of miles. The teleportation required Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone, and a special teleportation method was required to activate it. Due to the extremely harsh transmission conditions, this ultra-long-distance teleportation array has long since disappeared in the long river of history.
The cost of activating the teleportation array once is also huge, so it usually involves multiple people teleporting together, with multiple node exits in the same direction. If someone is willing to pay the full cost when they arrive at the node, they only need to spend five more spiritual stones to go to the nearest node, plus their own expenses.
Li Yan nodded after hearing this, saying that he understood, but his expression was uneasy and he couldn't help but show embarrassment. His expression fell into the eyes of the young Daoist priest, and he couldn't help but feel happy. He knew what the expression of the person in front of him meant. If If Li Yan directly showed disappointment or even unwillingness, then there was no chance. It was obvious that he did not have enough spirit stones, but he would still lobby and persuade Li Yan to teleport to a node a short distance to the north. That would at least shorten the flight distance.
But at the moment Li Yan showed such an expression, it was obvious that he still had enough spirit stones, but the price was a bit difficult for him to accept.
The young Daoist priest continued, "This is a very fair price. If you fly there on your own for a distance of eight thousand miles without a good flying spirit treasure or Dharma Treasure, it will take several days to get there, and I will wait for on the way. Qi Condensation Stage monks are also extremely dangerous, not to mention those first and second level Demon Beast, even if they encounter several monks traveling together and become malicious, it is not something that we alone Qi Condensation monks can bear."
The young Daoist priest was also very familiar with persuading people, and he directly took the other party's lifeline. He was also confident that what he said was coming out. The other party was still hesitant at first, but at this time he had lost his balance.
After saying that, the young Daoist priest looked at Li Yan with a sincere face, as if he was thinking for the other party. Seeing that Li Yan's face was more struggling, the young Daoist priest sneered in his heart, but his face was still as if bathed in the spring breeze.
Not long after, as he guessed, the expression on Li Yan's face changed drastically several times. He gritted his teeth and said with a slightly dry voice, "Fellow Daoist, I'm here to invite you. You also know that it's not easy for us Qi Condensation monks, especially monks like us who come from a small sect. I wonder if we can be accommodating and give some discounts."
Seeing this, the young Daoist priest knew that his words had had an effect, but there was a troubled look on his face, as if he was constantly thinking about it. Under Li Yan's almost pleading eyes, he finally said, "This... is difficult. The transmission fee is expensive, but today there is an uncle on duty who is waiting to teleport to the north, but he has an old relationship with my master..."
Next, the two of them whispered a few words and finally settled on it. Li Yan promised that when he handed over two hundred and twenty spiritual stones to step onto the teleportation array, he would give fifty more spiritual stones to the other party, and the other party would hand them over to that person. Master, it is considered as an accommodation fee. As for whether the young Daoist priest should keep it for himself or share it equally with others, Li Yan doesn't care. In short, he can just do the whole show by himself. Anyway, in the end, he saved thirty spiritual stones.
After seeing the negotiation, the young Daoist priest was not worried that Li Yan would go back on his word. After asking about Li Yan's origin, he then checked his Blood Leaf Sect token. Li Yan directly used his own name without concealing it. The young Daoist priest seemed to know about the Blood Leaf Sect. After seeing the gray token, his eyes flashed a few times. He looked at Li Yan carefully, and then asked about the Blood Leaf Sect in detail. Li Yan naturally answered everything he knew. Fortunately, the few people he knew were all He is a senior member of the Blood Leaf Sect, which is in line with the young Daoist priest's conjecture that Li Yan may be a direct descendant of the Blood Leaf Master. Such people often look down on other immortal cultivators of the same generation. They rarely interact with the same sect at all, and they don't know much about the lower levels of the sect, just like Uncle Luo just now.
At this time, Kong Nantai and other people inside the mountain gate have already gone to inspect other places. A dozen of them are on duty today. Later, they will encounter monks like Li Yan who come to borrow the teleportation array. At that time, everyone will have their turn to come forward to investigate. As for who can get it from the outside monks in the end How much benefit depends on personal luck and eloquence. There is very little control over these Daoist temples. But if anyone opens his mouth and breaks the rules, he will be greeted by the sect's anger. Therefore, ordinary disciples can get some small conveniences, but there are still many disciples who are unwilling to patrol. Many masters here often
</di>
For people who have been teleporting to and from the city for many years, the price has long been transparent. After all, there are not many people like Li Yan.
So when the young Daoist priest came to inquire about Li Yan, they just looked at him from a distance. Although they saw that Li Yan was a stranger, they could only sigh in their hearts. Who allowed the young Daoist priest to have a relationship with Master Kong? The group of people left early. As for whether they were worried about people like Li Yan bursting into flames, injuring others, grabbing tokens, and teleporting themselves inside, they were not worried. There were endless formations in Xuanqing Temple, and they were often parent-child formations that would move when triggered. Even if they get the Xuanqing Temple token, they will not be able to go deep into the Daoist temple without the leadership of the disciples. They are very confident about this. Unless Nascent Soul Realm monks come to attack, they will not be able to move freely inside the Daoist temple.
Seeing that the negotiation was settled, the young Daoist priest took out the token and led Li Yan into Xuanqing Temple. This man was quite talkative, but Li Yan just replied with a few words. Fortunately, his sad look made others think that there was something on his mind, but the young Daoist priest didn't care at all.
During the conversation, Li Yan also learned that the young Daoist priest's name was "Feng Zhiran". As they were stumbling around, Feng Zhiran took out the token and waved it somewhere. Li Yan found that every time the token was shaken, there would be a flash of light in one place, or an inconspicuous mountain rock, or a A small grass in a patch of weeds, or a pavilion on the roadside on the way up the mountain, etc., but the color of the light is always different, which makes Li Yan think in his eyes. Feng Zhiran seems to know it. He is quite proud of the look in Li Yan's eyes and can't help but introduce it. He said, "Our Xuanqing Guan can't compare with other sects in terms of cultivation techniques, talisman refining and weapon making, but this formation has been passed down for a long time. All the formations in the sect were personally arranged by ancestor Nascent Soul tens of thousands of years ago. Even if Nascent Soul Cultivator comes to attack, they can't even think of breaking through it without the time.", but since the Nascent Soul ancestor went out Spirit Transformation, there has been no news since then, and the sect has plummeted. I heard that this Nascent Soul ancestor also did Wangliang Sect's Guest Elder..."
Li Yan couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that the second-rate sect he came from had such a glorious past and was actually related to the Wangliang Sect. It seems that no sect should be underestimated. Those who can stand for a long time must have a profound foundation.
The two of them walked along the way, walked through the mountain gate and climbed up the mountain, and shuttled between some pavilions. They also met some Daoist priests. When these Daoist priests saw Li Yan, they all politely wrote with one hand.
Li Yan felt the spiritual energy here. Although it was not as good as Wangliang Sect, it was still three points better than the Blood Leaf Sect. This was already excellent for ordinary monks.
As they circled around, they had arrived at the top of the mountain. The Daoist temple hall on the top of the mountain was grand. Occasionally, the melodious sound of bells and bells could be heard floating around the top of the mountain. As Feng Zhiran turned around the front hall and passed through the nine-curved corridor, a large pond appeared in front of Li Yan. In the pond, lotus flowers were in full bloom in July. The green lotus leaves were lush and covered the pond surface. Waves of fragrance floated in the wind. It was refreshing to smell it.
Surrounding the pond, among the rocks carved near or far, the quiet white magnolia forest, ginkgo forest and rippling blue waves make this place more tranquil and deep. A stone path goes around the pond and stretches to the rear. A row of antique pavilions are built around most of the bank of the pond. These pavilions are lined up close to the pond and spread out in a semi-arc shape. The large windows are either closed or open to the pond.
