Immortal Abode Beast Taming

Chapter 472 Goodbye Situ Jingyu
In the underground lava hall of the underground fire domain, Situ Jingyu was sitting boredly on the main seat, listening to the quarrels of several foundation-building monks below.

These foundation-building monks were her junior brothers. They looked quite old, but when they got into an argument, they even went out to have a fight, preparing to decide who was right and who was wrong with their fists.

At this time, Situ Jingyu was wearing a fiery red robe with a nine-headed fire phoenix embroidered on it. She looked particularly domineering. Coupled with Situ Jingyu's height of 2.23 meters, she just sat there without getting angry. Self-prestige.

Now Situ Jingyu has taken over from the old sect leader. As the only golden elixir cultivator in the underground fire domain branch in the past hundred years, if she doesn't take over as the sect leader, who can do it?

However, compared to the situation of the sect a hundred years ago, the financial situation of the underground cave fire domain branch has been deteriorating over the years. Now the junior brothers in front of her always quarrel over the treatment of each mountaintop.

"Old He, we have an extra high-grade fire spirit root fairy seedling on the mountain this year. I will receive ten more middle-grade spiritual stones every year. Isn't that excessive?"

“It’s not too much, but there’s no money in the account!”

A white-haired old cultivator was facing another white-haired senior cultivator, wanting to step forward and punch him twice, but before he could do anything, he was pulled away by another old cultivator.

"Brother He, there are ten new flame clam cubs in the sect's breeding pool. This is a good thing when money begets money. I would like to allocate a few hundred more low-grade spiritual stones as medicinal food for serving spirits. I kindly ask Brother He to make it convenient. ”

"That's a good thing, but there's no money in the account!"

Lao He still said the same thing, as if I really want to give it, but I just don't have the money. This statement successfully aroused the anger of the monks who just spoke.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Let's get on top of each other and beat him up!"

"That's right, you really deserve a beating. You took all the sect's spiritual stones as kickbacks, right?"

The crowd was furious, and everyone was about to take it out on Lao He, who was in charge of the accounts. At this time, Situ Jingyu finally spoke:

"Okay, everyone, let's have a rest. You're tired after being noisy all day. There really isn't much money in the sect's account. All these spiritual stones have been consumed by my body training. So, I decided to practice less in the future. , save this spiritual stone for the sect, that’s it.”

Seeing Situ Jingyu speak, the monks below were silent for a moment, and then expressed their opinions one after another:

"No, no matter how difficult the sect is, it will not cut off your cultivation resources, sect leader. If your realm slips, this branch will be in danger."

"Senior sister, your cultivation resources have already been reduced a lot. If they are even less, how can you do it? If not, just capture some of the monsters on the first six floors of the fire cave and sell them off, and let's spend the next few years first."

Situ Jingyu became impatient after listening to the various persuasion of these junior disciples:
"Refining the body consumes a lot of money in the first place. Our sect is still without resources. Anyway, my realm has been stuck at the third level of the golden elixir. It is better not to collect resources and continue to advance. I will save these spiritual stones for you. If any of you have some energy and strive to form the elixir as soon as possible, I can pass this sect master on to him and go out to look for opportunities myself.

If it doesn't work out, I'll go join Ancestor Yue'e's pioneering campaign in Xingshi Valley and come back with some merit resources. It's better than just sitting there in vain. "

Situ Jingyu's idea made everyone strongly oppose it:
"This is absolutely impossible. It is too dangerous to start a war in the Awakening Lion Valley. Several Golden Core cultivators die every year. If you, a body-refining cultivator, go, you will definitely be pushed to the front. If anything happens to you, The fire domain branch of this underground cave is really going to be demoted and expelled. "

This doesn't work, that doesn't work either, which makes Situ Jingyu feel depressed. Ever since she became the master of the underground fire domain branch, she hasn't lived a comfortable life. It's better to be a senior sister who doesn't have to worry about anything. Woolen cloth.

With her master here, it was not her turn to worry about these things, but once her master died, this heavy burden fell on her shoulders. Even though her body training made her bones extremely strong, she still felt that it was very difficult for her to carry it.

If Fang Qingyuan was here, this situation should be easily solved for him, right?
At this time, Situ Jingyu couldn't help but think of Fang Qingyuan. Back then, her cultivation level was obviously much better than his, but in front of him, she couldn't act like a senior sister. Instead, she felt like she was being protected. Now that she thinks about it, she doesn't know Is this my own illusion?

Just as he was thinking about Fang Qingyuan, a disciple came forward to report at the door, holding a greeting card in his hand:
"Ancestor, dear uncles, there is a greeting card in front of the cave. He claims to be the leader of the Qingyuan Sect. He said that he has an old relationship with the ancestor, and he came to visit today. This is a greeting card. Please take a look at it, ancestor."

Situ Jingyu's heart trembled. She took this greeting card from the air, and a spiritual thought came from the air:
"Senior Sister Situ, we haven't seen you for many years. How are you doing these days? Junior Brother Fang Qingyuan passed by here recently and planned to pay a visit. Oh, by the way, Nan Li has grown up now. I just happened to take her to meet her mother. I also asked Senior Sister for help. Contact one or two, Qingyuan will stay.”

Unknowingly, Situ Jingyu had already stood up. She strode out of the hall, used her magical power, and began to fly towards the top of the cave.

"Hey, Master? Please wait for us!"

In the main hall, several gray-haired old cultivators looked at each other, and then heard a cry, "Senior sister is gone, beat him!"

Fang Qingyuan stood at the first stop where he settled back then. He looked at the familiar scene in front of him and vaguely remembered that it was here that he upgraded his fire spirit root to the upper level.

Now that a hundred years have passed, not much has changed here. After the flying boat landed, there were still two disciples from the cave fire domain who came to receive it.

Beside these two people, there were several huge red toads, jumping over from a distance.

When the toads came close, they were as tall as a building, and there were huge bulges on the backs of these toads, and they sprayed blue fire from time to time. They were so powerful that even mortals would be frightened from the bottom of their hearts when they saw them.

Seeing these [Fire Fire Clams], Fang Qingyuan thought of the scene where he and Jinbao were caught in the mouth, and couldn't help but smile. It's a pity that Jinbao is still sleeping and can't see this scene.

And even if Jin Bao wakes up, according to his size, these [Fire Clam] in front of him cannot swallow him.

After handing over the greeting card, Fang Qingyuan waited patiently. The two disciples knew that this young, pretty-faced monk who looked very imposing was related to their ancestor, so they did not dare to come forward and disturb him, so they could only wait with Fang Qingyuan.

But just a moment later, Situ Jingyu's figure appeared in front of the three of them.

Seeing Fang Qingyuan's expression remained unchanged, Situ Jingyu quickly stepped forward and punched Fang Qingyuan on the shoulder. This scene frightened the two disciples nearby and they were stunned.

Her ancestor was a golden elixir for refining the body. With her light punch, a foundation-building giant rock lizard was about to be broken into pieces, but why did the monk in front of her seem to have no reaction at all?

"You finally remembered to come see me. After all these years, have you ever had such a friend?"

Situ Jingyu's current expression was a bit coquettish and a bit complaining, which greatly exceeded the expectations of the two disciples. Is this still the domineering ancestor of his family?
It's over. Seeing their ancestor like this, the two qi training disciples were shocked. They wished they were blind and deaf now and couldn't see anything.

Situ Jingyu didn't care whether her current image was broken or not. This was her truest reaction after seeing Fang Qingyuan.

"It hasn't been that long, just about ten years. And senior sister, your hands are so strong."

Fang Qingyuan pretended to rub his shoulders. In fact, what Situ Jingyu did just now was not painful or itchy to him at all. After all, he was also a body builder and his body was strong.

"Is it so short? I thought many, many years have passed? Did it really hurt you just now?"

Situ Jingyu's expression was a little worried, but seeing Fang Qingyuan's playful expression, she knew that Fang Qingyuan was playing tricks on her. Only then did she remember that Fang Qingyuan's cultivation level was already higher than hers. Unknowingly, Situ Jingyu had already taken on her stance as a senior sister.

"Is there anything happening in your sect recently?"

The two walked side by side and began to chat about trivial matters of their respective sects. Now that they are both masters of the same sect, it seemed natural to talk about this matter.

"What can happen? It's still the same as before, starving to death and not having enough to eat. This is the only way to guard this three-acre of land."

Now, according to the cultivation level of the two of them, there is no need to ride the [Fire Clam] through the underground lava tunnel, just like strolling in the garden. The surrounding flaming lava is only equivalent to a steaming hot spring.

"How is your practice going, senior sister? You are stuck at the bottleneck between the third and fourth levels of the golden elixir, haven't you been stuck for a long time?"

"There is no other way. Body refining cultivators rely on resources, and the requirements for qualifications are not so high. But look at how we are divided into different branches. There are no spiritual stones to buy high-level body refining materials. It's okay to just be stuck like this. Accumulate The longer it takes, the easier it will be to break through in the future.”

"Don't you think about borrowing a sum of spiritual stones to get over this hurdle first? I'll change them later when I have the spiritual stones. According to your beast control branch's sign, there are still people who are willing to borrow several thousand high-grade spiritual stones?"

When Situ Jingyu heard Fang Qingyuan's idea, he immediately shook his head:
"No, Master has a destiny before he dies, and we are not allowed to borrow money to run our business, and we don't like to borrow money. Life is more difficult, but we can still survive today. If we borrow money, when the interest is high, the interest will be compounded. Benefit brings profit, that sect will always be controlled by others. "

Fang Qingyuan somewhat admired Situ Jingyu's master. The kind little old man back then actually thought about it for so long. If Situ Jingyu borrowed money, according to her brain, there was a high probability that someone would take advantage of her.

"Then if someone is willing to lend you five thousand high-grade spiritual stones without interest or compound interest, would you be willing to accept it?"

After Fang Qingyuan said this with a smile, Situ Jingyu looked at him in surprise, "Isn't this person you? To be honest, junior brother, are you going to let me give you a mortgage myself?"

Fang Qingyuan's face froze, why does this senior sister always want to mortgage herself?
"I won't mention this in advance. Senior sister, please take me to meet Nanli's mother."

Fang Qingyuan temporarily revealed this section. There are ten underground levels in the Fire Domain of the Catacombs. The first four floors are where the Qi-training stage monsters are, the middle three floors are where the Foundation-building monsters are, and the bottom three floors are where the Golden Core stage monsters are. The beast inhabited it, and it was on the eighth floor that Situ Jingyu snatched Nan Li away.

Fang Qingyuan used the excuse of letting Nan Li go to see his mother to observe whether the spiritual energy contained in the magma on the eighth floor underground could meet the needs of his immortal mansion.

Now Tu Dai'er is still waiting for him in Qingyuan Sect. Fang Qingyuan sneaked out quietly this time and can stay for up to three months, so he must find a mineral deposit that is very full of spiritual energy.

Situ Jingyu simply did not let Fang Qingyuan rest for a while, but directly listened to Fang Qingyuan's suggestion and took him straight to the eight-story underground fire cave.

The two passed through layers of fire caves. As the depth increased, the temperature of the underground gradually increased. The further down, the less breath of life there was.

"The flaming transparent mother bird was in the early stage of the Golden Core a hundred years ago. Now she has entered the middle stage of the Golden Core. Her territory is on the south side of the eighth floor, occupying half of the entire eighth floor, and her temper is not very good. Okay, but seeing Nan Li, he must be able to sell us some noodles."

Among the eight underground floors, the temperature here is not suitable for Qi practicing creatures to survive at all. Even the foundation-building monsters feel extremely uncomfortable here. The magma originating from the volcano in the center of the earth is spraying all over the sky. Everything is bright red.

Fang Qingyuan listened to Situ Jingyu's introduction, and with a thought, he summoned Nanli who was still sleeping in the purple bamboo forest in the Immortal Mansion.

"Quack! Come on!"

Nanli's toes were burned by the sudden high temperature and he kept raising and lowering them. The few times he screamed, Fang Qingyuan felt that this little guy was definitely scolding his mother.

But after seeing Fang Qingyuan's face, Nanli suddenly became much more well-behaved.

"Ah, this is Xiao Nanli. I haven't seen her for so many years and she has grown so big."

Situ Jingyu recalled that little chicken. Compared with the two-foot-tall majestic bird in front of her, there was really a huge gap.

Seeing Situ Jingyu, Nanli rolled his eyes, and immediately moved forward with understanding, crooked his neck, and rubbed Situ Jingyu's chest with his mouth.

Situ Jingyu reached out and touched Nan Li's head, feeling that this little guy still liked him quite a bit.

Just as one person and one bird were interacting, a loud cry suddenly came from the distance:

"Quack! Yo!"

A huge firebird, five feet long and with a wingspan of about ten feet, was flapping and running towards this side.

Seeing the strange running way of this bird, Situ Jingyu smiled and said:

"The height of this underground fire cave is limited. The flaming and bright birds have been here for a long time, and some of them can no longer fly, so they usually come flapping around."

Fang Qingyuan also nodded. No wonder Nanli was usually a bit cunning, like a wandering vulture. It turned out to be hereditary.

Seeing this huge flaming bird running towards her, Nanli's expression changed from confused to excited. She stretched her neck and screamed at the incoming bird.

But without Fang Qingyuan's order, Nanli didn't dare to walk over spontaneously. It wasn't until Fang Qingyuan signaled that she rushed over quickly.

At this time, Fang Qingyuan and Situ Jingyu found a raised magma rock and sat down side by side, quietly watching the scene where Nan Li recognized his mother.

"You said that you were seriously injured because of my thirty pieces of high-grade spiritual stones. Now that you think about it, do you regret it?"

"I regret it. If I had known you were so rich, I should have asked you for fifty yuan. It was only thirty yuan. I suffered a big loss."

"Haha, now I'll give you fifty yuan, how about you abduct Nanli's mother to me?"

"It's a beautiful idea. I won't do it if I don't have a hundred!"

Under the rain of lava and fire all over the sky, Fang Qingyuan sat quietly, side by side, talking to Situ Jingyu about some unknown joke.

The exploded magma slid down and landed in the magma lake behind the two people, causing ripples.
