Cultivation: I have an equipment slot

Chapter 162 Azure Phoenix Nascent Soul
For a sect of cultivators...

The most important aspect, of course, lies in its spiritual energy.

Besides spiritual energy, everything else must also be complete.

Alchemy rooms, weapon-refining rooms, spiritual plant gardens, and so on.

Simply put, if you're building a residential community, you need to have all the necessary amenities.

Fortunately, he didn't need to worry about these things much; he only needed to manage the overall progress.

As for how to cover it and what shape it should look like, someone specially drew the draft paper.

You could say it's a cushy job, and one that actually has some perks.

Ok.

It really does have benefits.

After all, how could building such a large sect not bring any benefits?
He was the foreman here, and all the materials used needed to be inspected by him.

Zhang Yan naturally did not refuse the gifts offered by his subordinates.

His main approach is to be passive, non-rejecting, and irresponsible.

Moreover, if he doesn't eat these things, how will the people above eat them?
Don't assume that the leaders and elders of the Qingheng Sect don't take kickbacks.

Just think about it, how could that be possible?

Even Mo Changqing needs his own private stash, right?
After all, what belongs to the sect belongs to the sect.

What's yours is yours.

Although one can sometimes use the sect's resources, ultimately, only what is truly one's own is truly one's own.

……

On this day, Zhang Yan was overseeing the construction of the sect.

Suddenly, I felt a sudden urge, as if there was something extraordinary about it.

He was immediately overjoyed and then returned to his temporary lodgings.

They opened a jade box.

As the jade box was opened, a bluish-purple shadow immediately wrapped around him and clung to his hand, bringing a slight chill.

Zhang Yan was not surprised by this figure.

Instead, a smile appeared on his face.

Instead, he stared intently at the bluish-purple figure in his hand.

Its body wasn't very big, only as thick as a little finger and as long as a chopstick. Its entire body was covered with purple and blue scales, making it look like a snake.

However, unlike snakes, it has a pair of bluish-purple, dragon-horn-like things growing on its head.

Needless to say, this little guy is none other than the fourth-tier spirit beast egg with wind and thunder attributes, a dragon.

"but……

How can they be so weak?

Zhang Yan looked at the little dragon in front of him with some disdain.

Even though the other person was just born.

But how come he only has the strength of the late stage of Qi Refining?
He had always thought that, regardless of anything else, one should be born with the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment stage.

After all, it's a dragon!

Jiaolong is also a dragon.

But now, upon closer inspection, it turns out he only has the strength of the late-stage Qi Refining realm.

However, despite the complaints.

But Zhang Yan still took out a pill that he had prepared beforehand and handed it to it.

"Since you are of the wind and thunder attribute, I will call you Wind and Thunder from now on." Zhang Yan was too lazy to come up with a name and simply gave the little guy a name.

Wind and thunder, that sounds pretty good too.

Although Feng Lei was only a late-stage Qi Refining demon beast, it was quite intelligent. While swallowing the pills Zhang Yan handed over, it stuck out its tongue and made a satisfied hissing sound.

After taking the pill, Feng Lei conveyed a sense of drowsiness to Zhang Yan.

After stroking it for a while, Zhang Yan threw it into his spirit beast pouch and let it continue to sleep.

What he just fed Feng Lei was a spirit beast pill, a kind of elixir specifically for spirit beasts.

Moreover, it is adjusted according to the attributes of wind and thunder.

It is excellent for its growth.

Since Feng Lei is a fourth-tier spirit beast, theoretically speaking, there is no bottleneck period.

It can grow continuously as long as it is supplied properly.

It allows for rapid advancement to the Foundation Establishment stage, Golden Core stage, and even Nascent Soul stage.

Only after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, when one's bloodline talent has been fully explored, does it require a long period of time to accumulate and grow.

It takes spirit beasts much longer than humans to break free from the shackles of their bloodline.

Fortunately, Feng Lei belongs to the dragon race.

Its potential is much higher than that of ordinary spirit beasts. Even at the fourth rank, it can continuously tap into its own dragon bloodline and transform into a dragon.

However, transforming into a dragon is not a simple task.

……

Another year has passed.

The Qingheng Sect's headquarters are almost complete.

However, Zhang Yan received new news that day: a disciple of a sect had found a place filled with malevolent energy.

This is extremely important to him.

After summoning his disciple and clarifying the reason, Zhang Yan rewarded him accordingly.

He was about to go and collect malevolent energy.

Over the years, his cultivation level has reached the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage.

His physical body had not yet reached the Foundation Establishment stage, and he was almost about to give up, but unexpectedly, he now had another chance.

Given that's the case, he naturally couldn't give up.

Physical foundation building is different from magical foundation building.

There are many ways to build a foundation in magic, but building a foundation in the physical body requires the presence of malevolent energy.

Moreover, there are significant differences between different types of malevolent energy. The malevolent energy that the disciple discovered this time was called Meteorite Malevolent Energy, which is considered an extremely good one among malevolent energies.

After making some preparations, he went to the location to collect the evil energy.

For ordinary Qi Refining cultivators, malevolent energy is a highly poisonous substance; contact with it is fatal and touching it is harmful. However, for someone like Zhang Yan who has already established his Foundation, it is not a problem at all.

He collected a large gourd full of evil energy in less than three days.

After collecting the malevolent energy, he immediately went into seclusion.

He draws in malevolent energy and then repeatedly beats himself.

As it is.

He then went into seclusion for more than a year.

Zhang Yancai finally succeeded, and at this time, his physical body had reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

"boom!"

With a casual tap, a stone pillar made of crystal on the ground shattered instantly, and the flying fragments of stone, like cannonballs, flew in all directions, creating a huge roar.

"Not bad." Seeing the strength, Zhang Yan nodded slightly.

However, this is not the limit.

In fact, after the physical body reached the Foundation Establishment stage, his body also possessed some supernatural abilities, such as the protective aura of malevolent energy, which is a supernatural ability unique to the Physical Foundation Establishment stage.

After unleashing his malevolent energy, ordinary spells became difficult to get close to him, and in addition, his recovery ability was greatly enhanced.

Furthermore, if one's Qi and blood are fully activated, one can gain a significant boost in speed and strength.

However, overall, it is still weaker than the Foundation Establishment of Magic Power. After all, no matter what, the Foundation Establishment of Magic Power is the way to go in this world.

For Zhang Yan, after successfully establishing his physical foundation, his strength experienced another surge, making him incredibly powerful among Foundation Establishment cultivators.

After leaving customs.

Zhang Yan's life became monotonous again.

His daily life consisted of comprehending supernatural powers and practicing cultivation.

Another thing is to tease Feng Lei.

After this period of training, Feng Lei has reached the late stage of Qi Refining, and his physique has also grown significantly.

It has grown from the thickness of a chopstick to the thickness of a baby's wrist, and its length has reached more than four feet.

Not only that.

It also awakened several spells.

One of them is that you can control your size and do as you please.

Another is to increase one's speed.

The last spell can summon lightning, which is extremely powerful.

Although Feng Lei seems harmless, if a real fight were to break out, even some cultivators at the peak of Qi Refining would likely find it difficult to deal with him.

After all, no matter what.

Wind and Thunder are also future fourth-tier spirit beasts.

At the same level, ordinary cultivators would find it difficult to contend with him.

Moreover, in addition to this, Feng Lei is more effective at dealing with demonic beasts, mainly because Feng Lei carries a trace of dragon might.

Although it doesn't carry much dragon might, it can still weaken the morale of many demonic beasts, making the fight easier.

The new mountain gate of the Qingheng Sect has been built, but the disciples have not yet been moved here.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

Zhang Yan felt that something was off about the atmosphere in the Qingheng faction lately.

The long-delayed land reclamation progress has been accelerated once again. Wangyue Bay has been completely cleared, and all the Golden Core stage demonic beasts inside have been killed.

Only some Foundation Establishment stage giants have not been completely eliminated, but judging from the sect's intentions, it seems they don't plan to eliminate them completely, but rather leave them as a training ground for disciples.

have to say.

The Qingheng School's scale is quite large.

Using Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts as training grounds for disciples is a grand gesture in the entire Zhao Kingdom.

After all, a Foundation Establishment stage demon beast is a treasure from head to toe.

If they encounter a monster they can control, they will usually kill it and take the treasure.

Only a sect like the Qingheng Sect, backed by the Tianmu Mountains, would look down on a few Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts.

But in reality, if it were placed within the territory of the Zhao state...

A Foundation Establishment stage demon beast is quite a treasure.

In addition to speeding up the land reclamation process, Zhang Yan also saw that many members of the sect had moved into the new mountain gate.

The meaning of "seeing the sect" is that this place will be used as the new mountain gate, while the original place will be set up as the outer gate.

Then the main peaks of the Qingheng Sect divided this area.

Some time has passed again.

Grandmaster Uncle Qingluan also rushed over from the outer sect to oversee the sect.

However, this time, Martial Uncle Qingluan seemed to be in a great hurry. After arriving, she refused to see anyone, and even Zhang Yan, she only saw him a few times.

Then it vanished without a trace.

With the disappearance of Grandmaster Qingluan, Elders Mo Changqing and Zhuge Wan, both at the Golden Core stage, arrived at the sect's headquarters and closely guarded the sect.

The sect is currently outwardly relaxed but inwardly tightly controlled. From the outside, it appears loose and disorganized, but in reality, even a mosquito flying by inside the sect is known to be male or female.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan's heart tightened.

He is not a fool.

There can only be one reason why the sect is in this situation.

That is……

Grandmaster Uncle Qingluan is about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

That is for sure!
Nascent Soul stage!
Thinking of this, Zhang Yan felt a surge of excitement.

His dream seems to be really about to come true.

Once Grandmaster Qingluan reaches the Nascent Soul stage, he will truly be the greatest second-generation immortal of the Qingheng Sect.

perhaps……

Immortal generation?
