Cultivation: I have an equipment slot

Chapter 80 Fourth-Order Spiritual Vein, Grandmaster Uncle?

"you!"

Lei Wanbao stared blankly at Zhang Yan, suddenly feeling that the world was too malicious towards him.

Zhang Yan's performance was also too outrageous.

Brother, I know you're a genius.

But you're still just a Qi Refining stage cultivator, okay?

I'm at the Foundation Establishment stage!
Do you even know what the Foundation Building stage is?
Even if I suppress my cultivation to the same level as you, Lei Wanbao should still be able to completely defeat Zhang Yan due to various factors of experience.

Unexpectedly, the two bumped into each other.

Lei Wanbao shattered on his own.

It happened so fast, just like that.

It crumbled into pieces immediately.

"Is this the world of geniuses?" Lei Wanbao took a deep breath. He had previously thought that so-called geniuses were just people who cultivated faster.

no big deal.

In terms of actual combat, Lei Wanbao, with so many magical artifacts to aid him, is definitely not inferior to anyone.

However, it now seems that the idea was beautiful, but the reality was harsh.

Those geniuses can beat themselves to a pulp even without using particularly outstanding magical artifacts.

Don't say anything.

I'm heartbroken!
Seeing Lei Wanbao leave, Zhang Yan was secretly astonished.

This guy looks like a clown, but I never expected him to be so amazing!
It should be noted that his Golden Bamboo Sword was enhanced with level 2 sharpness and several level 1 sharpness.

There are even attribute entries such as armor penetration and immense strength.

He couldn't even imagine the power it possessed.

Even such an attack only managed to break through the opponent's defense.

The ritual implements were still being held in the other party's hands.

"Indeed, Foundation Establishment is Foundation Establishment." Zhang Yan sighed, feeling a sense of longing in his heart.

Although Lei Wanbao made a scene when he came up.

But after dealing with Lei Wanbao, Zhang Yan's ascent up the mountain went surprisingly smoothly.

No one dared to challenge him anymore.

joke.

Even Foundation Establishment cultivators haven't done this, so why are you making these Qi Refining cultivators embarrass themselves?
The journey was peaceful.

Zhang Yan arrived at the main hall of the Qingheng Sect.

Inside the main hall sat Mo Changqing, Zhuge Wan, and other Golden Core cultivators.

They all looked at Zhang Yan with smiles on their faces.

I originally thought Zhang Yan was a production-oriented talent, but I didn't expect that he was not only good at production, but also a master in combat.

He can be described as an all-rounder.

This is an unexpected surprise.

"Disciple Zhang Yan greets all sect leaders and elders."

Zhang Yan arrived at the main hall and bowed to the crowd.

"Very good! Today, Zhang Yan, a disciple of my Qingheng Sect, has overcome numerous hardships, attained enlightenment, and been promoted to a true disciple!" Mo Changqing stood up from his seat, came to Zhang Yan's side, and gently tapped Zhang Yan's head.

A flash of inspiration struck.

This is a new Taoist robe.

It is also cyan, but with gilded purple edges, making it look incredibly luxurious.

Of course, this robe is not only beautiful, but also a ceremonial garment.

Leaving aside the basic automatic cleaning function.

It also has the functions of gathering spiritual energy, defense, fire repelling, water avoidance, and wind stabilization.

This single robe is worth a fortune.

In addition, the jade talisman in Zhang Yan's hand was also replaced.

This time, the jade talisman was a spiritual artifact crafted by Lei Kunhai.

Yes, the identity token of a true disciple is directly a spiritual artifact.

Moreover, the function of this magical artifact is quite simple.

Besides the basic functions, the defensive functions are also gone.

However, a teleportation function has been added.

As long as you crush the token, you can instantly teleport a person 100 miles away randomly.

It can be described as a life-saving artifact.

"Thank you, Sect Leader!" Zhang Yan quickly expressed his gratitude.

"You deserve this," Mo Changqing said with a gentle smile.

No wonder he's my future disciple; his talent is truly exceptional!

……

He took the Taoist robe, exchanged it for an identity token, and wrote his name in the Qingheng Sect's golden book and jade register.

At this moment, Zhang Yan officially became a true disciple.

He also gained a great deal of authority.

The first and foremost permission is that Zhang Yan no longer needs to be busy with sect missions.

You should know that previously, whether they were outer disciples or inner disciples...

In fact, everyone needs to complete tasks for the sect.

But true disciples are different.

The only task of a true disciple is to cultivate diligently.

The Qi Refining stage takes twenty years, and the Foundation Establishment stage takes seventy years.

If Zhang Yan fails to reach the Foundation Establishment stage within twenty years, he will lose his true disciple.

If one fails to achieve the Golden Core stage within seventy years after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, one will lose their position as a true disciple.

"It seems that the position of true successor is not easy to hold!" Zhang Yan sighed.

……

Zhang Yan only made a brief appearance at the banquet for the true disciples.

After that, he returned to his cave to cultivate.

The elders of the sect understood Zhang Yan's reluctance to stand out.

……

On this day, Zhuge Wan and Mo Changqing summoned Zhang Yan directly to their side.

"The Taiyi Sect's secret realm will open some time from now. Since you are now a true disciple of the Qingheng Sect, you need to go and cultivate with them," Mo Changqing said to Zhang Yan with a serious expression.

"Go and cultivate together?"
With whom?

Zhang Yan asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Come with me. I'm sure you're also very curious as to why you've been with the Qingheng Sect for so long but have never seen a true disciple of the Qingheng Sect."

“Indeed, I always feel that the true disciples of our Qingheng Sect are mysterious and I can’t get in touch with them,” Zhang Yan said honestly.

"The reason is simple: they are not in the Qingheng Sect at all, so you naturally cannot contact them."

"Let's go, I'll take you to meet them." As Mo Changqing spoke, a sword light appeared in front of him.

"Once you get there, you should cultivate diligently. But at your age, there's no need to rush to establish your foundation. Before that, you should try to cultivate more spells to reach perfection," Zhuge Wan earnestly advised Zhang Yan.

"Yes, Master." After bidding farewell to Zhuge Wan, Mo Changqing took him and flew away from Qingheng Sect.

High in the sky, Mo Changqing rode his flying sword, with Zhang Yan standing behind him. A strange thought suddenly occurred to him.

how to say……

Although Mo Changqing is at the Golden Core stage!
But he always felt that the other party's sword-wielding skills were not as good as Musen's.

It may be fast, but it lacks a touch of spirit.

However, this was just what he thought in his heart, and he would never dare to tell Mo Changqing.

Standing high in the sky, watching the Qingheng Sect gradually recede into the distance until it disappeared without a trace, Zhang Yan felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.

He observed Mo Changqing's flight direction.

It was beyond his expectation.

He originally thought that the true disciples of the Qingheng Sect were all within the territory of the Zhou Kingdom.

Unexpectedly, Mo Changqing led him directly into the Tianmu Mountains.

Moreover, judging from the appearance, they have clearly ventured deep into the Tianmu Mountains.

"Are all the true disciples of our Qingheng Sect in the Tianmu Mountains?" Zhang Yan asked with some surprise.

"Of course." Mo Changqing nodded: "Our Qingheng Sect has always wanted to develop the entire Tianmu Mountain Range. As a true disciple, if I don't understand the Tianmu Mountain Range, how can I lead the sect to explore the wilderness?"

"Ok."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan wisely shut his mouth.

For the Qingheng Sect, the Tianmu Mountains are both a base of operations and a source of considerable sorrow.

Because many cultivators in the Tianmu Mountains died during the land reclamation.

The Golden Core stage cultivators have very fast flight speeds.

Even so, Mo Changqing still led him on a journey that lasted a whole day.

The surrounding environment gradually changed from bustling to sparsely populated, and finally, it became completely deserted.

This is already deep in the Tianmu Mountains.

"You'll be spending the rest of your time here until the Taiyi Sect's secret realm opens," Mo Changqing said to Zhang Yan with a smile, standing high in the sky.

"Here?"

It looks rather dangerous. Zhang Yan's face twitched.

He sensed the presence of many demonic beasts on his way here.

Those in the late Qi Refining stage are considered like underlings.

The normal state is to reach the Qi Refining Perfection stage or even the Foundation Establishment stage.

He even discovered that he felt a sense of fear.

It must have been a demon beast at the Golden Core stage.

It's hard for most people to understand why a true disciple of the Qingheng Sect would be in such a place.

"Let's go, stop talking nonsense, I'll take you to meet your other senior brothers." Mo Changqing said, then spotted a hilltop and descended.

Halfway through, a transparent protective shield appeared in front of them.

There's actually a formation here.

Mo Changqing's expression remained unchanged, as if he had already expected this.

He took out a token from his pocket and led Zhang Yan into the protective shield.

Upon entering, Zhang Yan's first reaction was, "The spiritual energy here is so rich!"

Very rich!

It is even far more concentrated in spiritual energy than that of Muling Peak or Qingheng Peak.

Just one puff was enough to make Zhang Yan feel lightheaded.

"How about it?
Found?
The reason why the Qingheng Sect placed its true disciples here is because there is a fourth-order spiritual vein here! When he said this, Mo Changqing's eyes also became a little hot.

"A fourth-order spiritual vein!"

Zhang Yan's eyes widened. He knew that the spiritual energy generated by this fourth-order spiritual vein was enough for a Nascent Soul stage cultivator to cultivate.

As far as he knew, apart from the Myriad Flower Palace, it seemed that no other sect in the entire Zhao Kingdom possessed a fourth-order spiritual vein.

Suddenly, an even more terrifying question came to his mind.

Although this place is already quite deep in the Tianmu Mountains.

However, it is still considered an outer area within the Tianmu Mountain Range as a whole.

If there are fourth-order spiritual veins on the outer perimeter, wouldn't there be fifth-order spiritual veins in the center of the Tianmu Mountains?
If they could seize that fifth-tier spiritual vein, the Qingheng Sect would probably take off immediately!

"Don't overthink it." Seeing Zhang Yan's eyes, Mo Changqing instantly understood what Zhang Yan was thinking.

Because he had thought about this question when he was young.

However, the truth is, it's difficult, extremely difficult.

Each spiritual vein is occupied by demonic beasts. If you want to seize this spiritual vein, you must kill all the demonic beasts in the entire spiritual vein.

This is definitely not a simple matter.

In fact, this fourth-order spiritual vein was a lucky find for the Qingheng Sect.

Normally, there is a very high probability that a fourth-order spiritual vein will have a fourth-order demon beast living in it.

However, when the ancestors of the Qingheng Sect came again, the fourth-order demon beasts had already passed away, and only two late-stage Golden Core demon beasts were in charge of this spiritual vein.

The ancestors of the Qingheng Sect went to great lengths to kill those two late-stage Golden Core demonic beasts.

This base was eventually built.

This entire mountain is encompassed within a fourth-order spiritual vein.

Therefore, the ancestors of the Qingheng Sect directly used an array to lock up this mountain.

Only those with a token can enter and exit.

With their arrival.

The sound of swords rang out.

Several streaks of flying sword light appeared before them.

The leader was a young man who looked to be in his thirties, and judging from his aura, he should be in the Foundation Establishment stage.

The remaining people were of various ages, but all of them were at the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Disciple greets Sect Leader!" These people showed a hint of joy when they saw Mo Changqing.

"Not bad, not bad, your cultivation has made a breakthrough."

"I wonder when you will be able to form your core?" Mo Changqing's expression was very kind to these people.

These people are the future of the sect!

"I estimate that I will be able to break through to the Core Formation stage in another thirty years," the middle-aged man in the lead said confidently.

"Thirty years, at the fastest, time waits for no one!" Mo Changqing sighed. "The sect is about to start the pioneering war."

"It would be best if you could reach the Golden Core stage before then."

"We will do our best!" Everyone's expression turned serious upon hearing Mo Changqing's words.

"Well, the matter of Core Formation can't be rushed. You can manage it yourselves." Although they wanted to have an extra Core Formation cultivator before starting the expedition.

But Mo Changqing also knew that this couldn't be rushed.

Then he turned to Zhang Yan and said, "This is your new junior brother Zhang Yan. You'll have to take good care of him from now on."

"Greetings, fellow senior brothers and sisters." Zhang Yan immediately stepped forward and said obediently.

"Junior Brother Zhang Yan..."

"Only Qi Refining stage?" Everyone was stunned when they saw Zhang Yan's age. They knew that they had all become true disciples only after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.

I never expected Zhang Yan to only be at the Qi Refining stage!

“Good. Take him to see your master first, we can talk about the rest later.” Mo Changqing straightened his clothes and led Zhang Yan to a thatched hut.
