Hybrid Spiritual Plant Cultivation

Chapter 349 Olive Branch and Dog Chain

Chen Jing discovered that Jiu Niang's attitude towards him had become much more friendly. He guessed that the two boxes of good wine he had given her had taken effect.

This is what they call "the more courtesy, the less blame you will get", and it is another episode where the words of our ancestors are useful.

"Come on, Chen Jing, you have made the greatest contribution this time. I will take you to the treasury to pick out a good thing." Jiu Niang walked forward and patted him heavily on the shoulder.

Cheng Xiaying was also on the boat. Seeing this, her eyes widened and she asked, "Jiu Niang, what about me?"

"What did you do? Stop yelling!"

Jiu Niang hurriedly pulled Chen Jing away, waving her hands at the same time, as if to drive away Cheng Xiaying who was following them like a fly.

Cheng Xiaying insisted, "I'll pick one too. I'll pick something that's a bit worse. Jiuniang, we've been friends for so many years, just let me pick one this time!"

"You female rat want to get into my granary? No way!"

boom.

Jiu Niang quickly activated the teleportation formation and disappeared with Chen Jing in the teleportation light, leaving Cheng Xiaying outside and knocking on the door.

Jiu Niang, who had shown an ugly face to Cheng Xiaying just now, turned around and put on a friendly smile.

"Come, here are all the treasures I have found over the years, you can pick any you want."

Chen Jing looked around for a moment.

It was called a warehouse, but actually he was in a cave, standing on the top of a steep mountain that reached the sky.

The cold wind blew, bringing with it falling snow.

He looked around.

There are no natural treasures in the conventional sense here, but rather "heaven" and "earth" themselves.

The snow-capped mountains themselves are majestic, like a sharp sword inserted between heaven and earth; the mountains that stretch not far away are like a entrenched dragon; the fireflies chasing each other in the sky are also a small astronomical phenomenon.

Simultaneously.

As Jiu Niang tapped lightly, the ownerless areas were opened before his eyes like books.

Just like the realm of gods and ghosts that Chen Jing first obtained, these realms themselves are also a kind of resource.

Chen Jing suppressed his excitement and said, "Jiu Niang helped me build Shuangjiao Mountain, and I have already got my share."

Although Shuangjiao Mountain was taken by the master's efforts.

But the construction of Shuangjiao Mountain required a lot of resources from Jiu Niang, so he said this.

Jiu Niang came up with a smile and said, "This job is not finished yet, but the rest will fall on your head. Guess what it is?"

"It's not over yet... Is it related to me?" Chen Jing thought for a moment and said, "Are you going to get the flying boat manufacturing method of Shennong Sect? But I don't know why it is related to me."

"You guessed right. Mo Yatou wants to get the flying boat manufacturing business, but it is not convenient for her to hold it. After all, this thing already has an owner. However, its 'owner' is a sect in the southeast of Shenzhou. I heard that you were also born in the southeast."

Jiu Niang did not hide anything.

Having said this, Chen Jing suddenly understood the cause and effect relationship.

He guessed correctly. The manufacture of the flying boat would definitely be targeted by others, and the consequence for the Shennong Sect would be that they would be taken as dogs.

Chen Jing's misunderstanding was that Shennong Sect still had no master and was only temporarily cooperating with Yunshang Sect and Miaohe Sect. He did not expect that Yunshang Sect and Miaohe Sect were actually a union to the outside world and belonged to some Southeast faction.

Jiu Niang’s idea was that instead of trying to seize the identity of the dog’s owner, she could just seize the rope that tied the dog.

This is the rhythm of having to be the dog leash yourself.

"The Qingnang Sect cannot yet act under the name of the Southeastern Faction."

Chen Jing shook his head.

"I understand, so Miss Mo will work hard behind the scenes to help the Qingnang Sect become the third immortal sect in the southeastern faction." Jiu Niang said.

"The sect and what do I need to do?"

Chen Jing asked.

"Girl Mo only wants the flying boat. You and the Qingnang Sect don't need to pay anything else."

In other words.

Just borrow a name.

But the good thing is that Mo Yige helped Qingnang Sect become an immortal sect - that is, a sect with powerful people in the transcendental realm.

Chen Jing nodded: "I need to report this matter to the sect."

"Pick one thing first. Regardless of whether this thing succeeds or not, you are in the same boat with us. Take what you should take."

Jiu Niang felt around her waist and found that she didn't bring the gourd, so she said, "You pick it yourself. I have to go back to get some wine. Just call me when you're done."

Wait until she leaves.

Chen Jing began to ponder.

He suspected that the reason why Mo Yige valued him was probably because of his identity.

The Qingnang Sect originated from a southeastern sect, and it has the potential to be promoted to a major immortal sect.

Chen Jing was not opposed to becoming the leash that ties the dog. After all, everything depends on cost-effectiveness. He didn't have to pay anything and almost got a chance for free to make the Qingnang Sect become an immortal sect.

This is obviously a business that makes a lot of money with no investment.

but.

Mo Yige would definitely not give it up for nothing. The seventh realm, the Earth-penetrating Realm, required the laws of the Great Dao to penetrate many realms of the lower world.

Since she wants to help the Qingnang Sect, she must provide these realms, and essentially, those realms are also in her hands.

This is both a gift and a bondage.

If anything unpleasant happens one day, the Qingnang Sect will be immediately reduced to its original form by simply cutting off its "roots" in the lower world.

Because the lower world was not developed by the Qingnang Sect itself, but was a gift from others. It is like a castle in the air without any foundation.

This dog leash was also put on Qingnang Zong's head.

Chen Jing's current speculation is based on the worst-case scenario, but this hidden danger must be taken into consideration.

There are two solutions to the hidden danger.

The first one is to be completely and deeply bound to Mo Yige's interests, just like when Jiu Niang left, she specifically mentioned: we are all in the same boat.

It's probably some kind of hint, hoping that they can really become like-minded partners in the end.

But Chen Jing would not consider this point for the time being. After all, he still didn't know the full background, future plans, and what they were seeking of Mo Yige, Jiu Niang, and others.

How can you be sure that you will end up with like-minded partners when you are in the dark? Chen Jing is more inclined to master his own core strength, so that even if he leaves Mo Yige, he can take root in the lower world and maintain the influence of the avenue.

No one knew that he was able to copy the Shennong Sect's exotic beast flying boat just by taking a look at it.

"It's okay to accept it temporarily. Just be prepared. Young Master Wei has the same plan. I'll accept all the good intentions and see who can put a cap on me."

Chen Jing made a decision and then calmly picked out the treasures.

I don’t even look at the cheap ones, I only pick the most expensive ones.

Because taking worthless things also means not deepening cooperation, and since he has decided to deepen cooperation, he will show his strength.

——We are all family, why be polite!
After Jiu Niang finished making the wine and heard Chen Jing's call, she returned to the treasury and saw Chen Jing waiting in the clouds, surrounded by floating fairy islands.

Her eyelids twitched and some of the wine spilled out.

"Shengxian Island? Good fellow, you have sharp eyes. You found it even though it was hidden so deeply." Jiu Niang covered her chest, feeling a little pain, and said, "This island is not simple. It is a place where immortals became immortals in the ancient times. At least hundreds of people ascended here, bathed in immortal energy and moistened by the avenue. This island has become an extremely rare phenomenon."

Some things are difficult to classify as celestial phenomena or geographical phenomena, so they are collectively called anomalies. In fact, the meanings are the same.

Chen Jing said: "As soon as I saw it, I felt that this thing must be valuable."

"You have a talent for our business. You've found a treasure."

Jiu Niang felt pained, but she had no intention of shirking her responsibility. She said, "If this phenomenon is integrated into the cave, it can speed up the evolution of the cave. If it is integrated into the body and transformed into a dragon, it can directly cultivate into the 'Ascension Dharma Image'. How do you want to use it?"

“Just cultivate the Dharma image.”

"What do you need so many Dharma images for?" Jiu Niang was curious.

"For me, the more Dharma images, the better."

"Okay." Jiu Niang didn't ask any further.

Chen Jing began to refine.

When Jiu Niang introduced it earlier, she also explained the details of the ascension method to the divine consciousness.

Among the many wonders of the Ascension Dharma, the most outstanding one is the refinement and control of 'immortal power'. Immortal power is the highest quality type among the myriad of spiritual powers. Any spell or magic weapon driven by immortal power will have double the effect.

It can optimize his mana output efficiency.

When Chen Jing refined Shengxian Island, he saw Cheng Xiaying studying a Taoist book diligently. When she saw Chen Jing coming out, her eyes were filled with jealousy and resentment.

"Wait, wait until I improve my level of practicing the Hundred Arts, then I can choose treasures at will!"

Cheng Xiaying declared her fighting spirit and then buried her head in studying hard.

Chen Jing was silent.

If hard work is useful, then what's the point of cheating?

Jiu Niang disappeared for a short while, then returned and said, "The matter of the Mourning Island has come to an end. Next, we will go to the Purgatory Island."

Cheng Xiaying immediately looked up: "Purgatory Island? No!"

"What are you afraid of? It's not like I haven't been there before." Jiu Niang looked nonchalant. She touched the wine gourd and said nostalgically, "I miss the Luoying wine from Purgatory Island so much. I haven't had it for a long time."

Seeing Cheng Xiaying's resistance, Chen Jing couldn't help but ask, "Where is Purgatory Island?"

"Child, stop asking questions and run... No, you just took the treasure, right? In that case, it's too late to run. I said the treasure is not that easy to get!"

Cheng Xiaying casually threw the Taoist book that he had just been determined to study hard into the flying boat.

Jiu Niang said leisurely: "Let's go together. I'll give you a chance to pick a treasure."

"...Huh?!" Cheng Xiaying struggled for a long time before finally making up his mind. He took out two Taoist books from somewhere and said angrily, "I swear, this is the last time I'll go to Purgatory Island. From now on, I'm going to make a living by my skills!"

Jiu Niang ignored her and said to Chen Jing, "Purgatory Island is the same as the Mourning Island, it is a Chaos Continent, but there are also differences in Chaos Continents. The Mourning Island is just a barren land with mostly ordinary Chaos Laws, while Purgatory Island is different. You can imagine that there are Chaos Laws everywhere, just like the Twin Horned Mountains."

"It sounds exciting." said Chen Jing.

Jiu Niang said: "Of course, what's even more exciting is that the Chaos Wonders there can be mass-produced in a stable manner. It's like an inexhaustible mine. Therefore, you can see some shadows of the many well-known forces in the lower world on Purgatory Island."

"There are rich bosses everywhere." Cheng Xiaying interjected, with stars in her eyes.

Jiu Niang continued, "You now have some understanding of the Chaos Wonder. It contains new and unique laws that can be directly integrated into the cave. As long as there are enough wonders, you can complete the cave evolution at the fastest speed. It is the best way to quickly achieve the heavenly realm.
In this case, the Purgatory Island, which can produce Chaos Wonders, has attracted competition from various forces. They fought and fought, and finally each of them carved out a territory and became the owner of the mine. With the mine owner, there will naturally be mine slaves. Cheng Xiaying knows this better. "

Cheng Xiaying's mouth twitched, and she said, "There is only one way to obtain Chaos Artifacts in Purgatory Island, and that is to continuously participate in the Chaos Laws and die in it. Therefore, Purgatory Island is actually an arena, where one death game after another is held. The Chaos Artifacts that are finally condensed are shared between the mine owner and the gladiators."

"Have you been a miner?" Chen Jing asked curiously.

"I don't have any. Only those who were caught are mine slaves. Who dares to catch me? I am a real messenger of purgatory." Cheng Xiaying held his neck high.

Jiu Niang added: "Yes, so she sold herself in and signed a thousand-year gladiatorial contract. It's a pity that she managed to come out alive and even got the name of Thousand Blades Rakshasa. Was it Thousand Blades or Ten Thousand Blades?"

"...You can call it whatever you want. Humph, I don't like any of them anyway. I hate fighting the most."

"But you can do nothing but fight."

"Just wait! Once I learn the technology, I'll make a living from it sooner or later!" Cheng Xiaying hummed and muttered something like "Just wait and see."

Chen Jing couldn't help but glance at the Taoist book in her hand.

"Learning to refine equipment from scratch".

Can't you learn this thing just by looking at it? Her learning progress is quite touching.

"In short, Purgatory Island is such a good place. It attracts many practitioners from the lower world to fight. Similarly, because people from various major forces gather here, you can buy anything you want on Purgatory Island."

Jiu Niang said, "This time there is a boss who has specified a Chaos Wonder that needs to be obtained from Purgatory Island. Just leave the details to me, and I can exchange it for a few realms."

"What do we need a realm for? To establish a sect?" Cheng Xiaying wondered.

"To Chen Jing's sect. In short, that's all. We'll talk about anything else later." Jiu Niang shook her head and said, "I want to sleep now."

She yawned and walked away slowly with a sleepwalking pace.

Cheng Xiaying was speechless and said, "She has always been like this. She can't explain anything clearly. I'll ask Mo Yige myself later. But what about what she said about handing it over to your sect?"

Chen Jing gave a brief account of what had happened, and Cheng Xiaying's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing it.

"Okay, okay, it turns out that you are different from us who have no fixed place to live. You have a family and a career. Are you interested in training a master who is proficient in all kinds of arts?"

Cheng Xiaying straightened her chest and showed her outstanding talents.

Chen Jing said: "We are in urgent need of good fighters with outstanding talents in combat."

"..." Cheng Xiaying suddenly became depressed and said, "What's the point of fighting and killing? Those who like fighting and killing should be sent to Purgatory Island for a thousand years... Damn it, just wait, one day, you will all come to beg me."

He left mumbling all the way.
