An Idea, Arrival at Half-Spirit Valley
At that time, the Spirit Vein masters of Tianyuan were incredibly arrogant.
Relying on his abilities, he searched for Spirit Vein throughout the world, then severed their Spirit Vein essence, extracted Spirit Vein, and refined them into his own body.
In a short time, the number of Spirit Vein in Tianyuan decreased dramatically.
The concentration of Spiritual Qi in the entire Tianyuan decreased somewhat.
The Tianyuan cultivator was furious.
They haven't even made a move against these Spirit Vein masters yet.
The Heavenly Dao then personally intervened and wiped out these Spirit Vein Masters.
Since then, the Spirit Vein masters of Tianyuan have disappeared without a trace.
Nowadays, finding a Spirit Vein master is like finding a needle in a haystack.
But the difficulty level isn't much different either.
Li Yunjing sighed.
There's always a way out.
If all else fails, train your own Spirit Vein masters.
I just don't know what to do about the Curse on that Spirit Vein master.
As he pondered this, Li Yunjing headed towards the eastern foothills of Serene Valley.
Upon arriving at the Welcoming Immortal Pavilion, a sharp glint flashed in Li Yunjing's eyes.
"Liu Qingsong is quite capable," Li Yunjing murmured to himself.
The appearance of the Welcoming Immortal Pavilion did indeed surprise Li Yunjing slightly.
Unfortunately, the Welcoming Immortal Pavilion is just an ordinary building with a beautiful exterior.
There was no formation enhancement, nor any special effect.
But it's okay, I'll do it myself.
Li Yunjing entered the Welcoming Immortal Pavilion.
From the Welcoming Immortal Pavilion, one can enjoy a panoramic view of the entire Serene Valley.
However, the Luozhen Sect is protected by a sect-protecting formation.
The clouds and mist swirled, and the rosy clouds danced, obscuring the whole scene.
Only a vague outline of the Luozhen Sect could be seen.
The rest of the area is clearly visible.
The scenery may not be perfect, but it has its own unique charm.
[Should we Welcoming Immortal Pavilion as an upgradeable building?]
Li Yunjing silently said "yes" in his mind, and a prompt box popped up in front of him.
[Welcoming Immortal Pavilion (lv0)]
[Current effect: None]
[Level 1 Effect: Visitors' favorability towards the Luozhen Sect increases by 2%, Luozhen Sect's reputation increases by 3 points.]
[Upgrade Requirements: 1 Etiquette Attendant, complete setup of a basic Grade 1 formation, 30 Low-Grade Spirit Stone.]
The results were mediocre.
However, Li Yunjing felt that the ability to increase reputation was somewhat of a waste.
But then Li Yunjing thought again, if he built a building that could be linked with the Welcoming Immortal Pavilion and make full use of his reputation, then the reputation would not be useless.
"What building can be linked with the Welcoming Immortal Pavilion through reputation?" Li Yunjing pondered carefully.
There's no rush, take your time to think about it.
After upgrading the Welcoming Immortal Pavilion, it was completely dark.
As the moon rose in the east, Li Yunjing returned to his cave abode.
I need to get a good rest tonight to prepare for tomorrow's battle.
The following day, March 2nd,
Li Yunjing left his cave abode early.
This time, we're going to Half-Spirit Valley to fight.
Li Yunjing planned to only let Mo Xuan accompany him.
Li Yunjing asked Shui Yao to stay at the Luozhen Sect so that he could handle tomorrow's matters.
Tomorrow is the third day of the third lunar month.
The day when the Immortal-Seeking Assembly is held in Xunxian Town.
The Luozhen Sect should take this opportunity to recruit a new batch of disciples.
"No, senior brother, if you lose, the Immortal-Seeking Assembly will be over!"
When Shui Yao learned that Li Yunjing wanted to keep her at the Luozhen Sect, she immediately glared at him, feeling resentful.
"What, you don't have confidence in your senior brother?" Li Yunjing asked with a smile.
"Of course not, I just want to witness my senior brother utterly defeat those ignorant fools." Shui Yao raised her right hand.
Li Yunjing shook his head. "Traditional magical combat isn't about fighting and killing. Listen to your senior brother."
Shui Yao pouted; though unwilling, she had no choice but to obey.
He left Luozhen Sect with Mo Xuan.
They arrived in Xunxian Town and joined the Immortal Alliance members.
Besides the people from the Immortal Alliance, quite a few others went to Half-Spirit Valley this time.
As an ally of the Luozhen Sect Departing Maple Sect naturally couldn't miss out.
Besides Departing Maple Sect, other forces such as the Hong Household and Green Wood Sect also came to support Li Yunjing.
Even the Clear Wind Sect sent an elder.
They didn't stay in Xunxian Town for long before each of them used their abilities to head to Half-Spirit Valley.
Li Yunjing did not fly directly into the air, but instead Sword Flight.
Mo Xuan also flew on a sword.
As the Grand Elder of the Luozhen Sect
Mo Xuan used his elder privileges to find the Hundred Artifacts Pavilion.
They commissioned the Hundred Artifacts Pavilion to custom-make a flying sword for them.
After a hurried journey, the group finally arrived at Half-Spirit Valley around noon.
Half-Spirit Valley is located in a huge valley.
From a distance, it looks like a giant beast opening its mouth.
The thin-faced cultivator that Li Yunjing had seen before was leading a group of people guarding the entrance to Half-Spirit Valley.
Li Yunjing already knew his identity.
Zuo Zimu, the master of Half-Spirit Valley.
Middle Golden Core cultivation.
As Li Yunjing and the others approached.
Zuo Zimu personally led a group to welcome them.
"The presence of fellow Daoists from Xunxian Town is truly an honor to my Half-Spirit Valley," Zuo Zimu said with a smile.
Wang Qianxue cupped her hands in greeting. "Valley Master Zuo, let's cut to the chase. It's getting late, let's begin the second round of the duel."
Zuo Zimu looked surprised. "Aren't you all going to rest? If my Half-Spirit Valley wins, don't blame us for winning unfairly."
"Don't worry, Valley Master Zuo, we still have our pride." Wang Qianxue smiled.
Zuo Zimu laughed along.
But a shadowy glint flashed in his eyes.
Isn't this a blatant insult, implying that Half-Spirit Valley is shameless?
Zuo Zimu sneered inwardly:
"Wait till you lose, you'll be sorry!"
Following Zuo Zimu, the group from Xunxian Town entered Half-Spirit Valley.
As soon as Li Yunjing entered the Half-Spirit Valley, he sensed that something was wrong.
The Spiritual Qi within this Half-Spirit Valley is incredibly concentrated.
Even Li Yunjing could see that the Spiritual Qi in some places was so dense that it was visible to the naked eye.
It condensed into a cloud-like mass, floating in mid-air.
"Beneath this Half-Spirit Valley lies a Grade 3 Spirit Vein, which is top-tier, just a step away from becoming a Grade 4 Spirit Vein."
"Yunjing, if you can win for Xunxian Town, you will be Major Merit to Xunxian Town."
Wang Qianxue transmitted her Divine Sense.
Li Yunjing's expression hardened.
A top-tier, third-grade Spirit Vein —that's no small feat.
Beneath the Xunxian Town, there is only one primary third-grade Spirit Vein.
We arrived at the arena for the duel.
This place had already been gathered by many cultivators from the Half-Spirit Valley.
The place instantly became lively as both sides entered.
The cultivators from Half-Spirit Valley were also there to watch the spectacle.
However, upon learning that Half-Spirit Valley had gained a slight advantage in yesterday's duel,
The monks were all extremely excited.
Expanding your territory means more opportunities.
Zuo Zimu did not delay.
They simply announced the rules.
The rules are no different from those of traditional combat techniques.
Both sides sent their own people to fight, and whoever could break the other's Law Technique would win.
Since the highest cultivation level of the cultivators on both sides was the Golden Core Late Stage.
Therefore, the highest level of cultivators that can be sent is Golden Core Late Stage cultivator to engage in the battle.
With the rules announced, the first round of the duel begins.
From the Half-Spirit Valley, a cultivator with a pointed mouth and monkey-like face walked out.
This person Early Golden Core.
"I am but a humble one, and I am the vanguard of this battle in Half-Spirit Valley. I wonder which fellow Daoist would be willing to spar with me?"
The cultivator looked at the area around Xunxian Town with a timid and sleazy expression.
Just as Li Yunjing was about to leave, Wang Qianxue stopped him.
"No rush, let others go and check on his situation first, so you can be prepared," Wang Qianxue said.
Although it's the first round, a maximum of three people can try in Xunxian Town.
Conversely, the same applies when it's the Xunxian Town's turn to set the questions.
Therefore, Wang Qianxue told Li Yunjing not to go on stage first for the time being.
Let others try it first, and then they can come back and tell Li Yunjing about their experience.
Li Yunjing obeyed, Xunxian Town sent Sikong Ying to make his appearance.
That's right, Sikong Ying also has some knowledge of traditional combat techniques.
The monkey-faced cultivator didn't waste any words when he saw Sikong Ying.
He made a hand Hand Seals, and suddenly, the surroundings went dark.
A bright moon rose in the sky.
The monk with the pointed mouth and monkey-like face took out a cup and placed it under the bright moon.
The sound of rushing water filled the air.
A stream of silvery water flowed from the bright moon and fell into the cup...
