Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 110 Resource Integration
The demon cultivator who had disappeared from the world of immortal cultivation for many years reappeared, sounding the alarm in everyone's hearts.

Ji An suddenly thought of a question: how did the sect judge the time of the outbreak of the demon disaster, and how big was the error?

"Do you think the demonic disaster will break out sooner than the ancestors predicted?"

Liu Yu nodded slightly:

"I think it might be a few years earlier than expected, but the chances of it being much earlier are slim. But who can say for sure? We can only be as prepared as possible."

Mu Qingwan pondered and said:

"I've looked up records about demonic disasters, and every outbreak is a catastrophe for the monks.

For Central Continent, the sects and families of Western Continent serve as a buffer zone during wars. After each major war, only 20% to 30% of the forces remain.

Du Huaiyuan used his skills to refine the spirit wine, and the drunkenness in his eyes quickly dissipated:
"A small boat is afraid of wind and waves, and a large ship has difficulty turning. Once the foundation of the sect is established, it will be impossible to avoid this war. The sect's ancestors can only consider expanding the sect's strength before the storm.

I think the sect is doing very well now, and has been expanding its outward presence.

The other two sects were also taking the same action. If they opened up enough strongholds and penetrated deep into the inner area of ​​the Ten Thousand Mountains, it would be equivalent to driving a large number of wooden stakes into the river before the river water flooded, which would always help to delay the attack of the demon disaster.

It is said that in recent years, independent cultivators have been able to rent cave dwellings in outdoor strongholds for a long period of time. This will also allow independent cultivators to make better use of their resources."

After learning from his master that a demonic disaster was about to break out, he also looked up relevant records and found that after each demonic disaster, there would always be a group of sects and families migrating from Central Continent.

Among the three sects, Jinling Sect and Yuanheshan migrated from Central Continent three thousand years ago.

He was optimistic about this crisis because Luofeng Valley survived the last demon disaster, when there were only three Jindan-stage cultivators in the entire Xizhou.

After continuous mergers, there are only three major sects left in Xizhou. All other small and medium-sized sects have disappeared, making it easier to integrate power.

More importantly, there are now seven Jindan ancestors in the three sects, which makes people feel much more at ease considering the number of top-level combat forces.

After three thousand years of reproduction and development, the strength of human cultivators has become more prosperous than when the demon disaster last broke out.

Ji An nodded slightly and said with a smile:
"I think the three sects should give up more benefits and tie more independent cultivators to the chariot."

The combat effectiveness of the independent cultivators is not as good as that of the sect disciples, but their numbers far exceed those of the three sects.

If used properly, it can relieve a lot of pressure.

After the outbreak of war, the sect will recruit independent cultivators, but there will inevitably be a considerable number of independent cultivators who will not put in any effort.

More independent cultivators would try to hide in a place with less spiritual energy. If there is no real benefit for them, why would they risk their lives for it?

They will wait for the sect to slowly clean up the situation, because the main target of the monsters must be the various spiritual veins.

Liu Yu nodded slightly and said with a smile:
"That's something the sect's elders need to consider, and we just have to follow their orders.

The sect is currently cultivating the spiritual vein with all its strength. Master said that it will take about 10 to 20 years to cultivate it to the third level.

By then, the sect's mountain protection formation would be unbreakable even under the siege of many Jindan-level monsters. Unless a Yuanying-level monster came out in person, there had never been any record of a Yuanying-level cultivator participating in a monster disaster.

I truly believe this demonic disaster is a great opportunity for everyone. Through the struggle, we can hone our indomitable Daoist heart. As long as we can survive this war, we will surely have a better future."

This was also the real reason why he joined the Law Enforcement Hall, fighting for his life to earn the resources to advance to the Chao Yuan period.

He possesses a fire-type body, and his chosen technique is the Fiery Sun Furnace Scroll, which has great advantages whether it is for improving cultivation or practicing fire-type techniques.

"Haha, I'm still figuring out how to survive the war by making sacrifices, but my senior brother is thinking about the opportunities hidden in danger. I'm far behind him."

Du Huaiyuan raised his eyebrows, feeling quite admiring.

He took out a jar of spirit wine from his storage bag and broke the seal under the table.

"After listening to what Senior Brother said, everything should become clear."

Mu Qingwan said seriously:

"Senior brother has an extraordinary demeanor, Qingwan also admires him in her heart."

Several people raised their glasses and drank. Du Huaiyuan said with a smile:
"My brother's path is too difficult and not suitable for me. I'd rather stay behind and do some logistical work for everyone.

After I return, I will study the art of alchemy in depth. When the sect sees that I can create more value by staying behind, they will definitely reduce the combat missions assigned to me.

Brother, when you come to me to buy pills, I will give you a discount!"

Li Lingyu curled her lips slightly and said:

“My senior brother practices the Fire Element Method, so how could he possibly buy pills from you, a water-based alchemist? You only talk cheap words and are insincere.

Even when buying pills, I would go to Senior Sister Mu to buy them.

Sister, don’t you agree? "

She turned her face to Mu Qingwan, and her big eyes blinked playfully from the side of her face that no one else could see.

Du Huaiyuan was surprised and said:

"That's not right. Junior Sister Li is also an alchemist. The elixir you refine that is rich in wood energy is also suitable for Senior Brother Liu. There's no need to look for Junior Sister Mu."

Mu Qingwan's face flushed slightly.

Liu Yu's expression remained normal as he spoke:

"Speaking of the issue of elixirs, several of my junior brothers and sisters are serving in the Dan Ding Academy. Does the sect have sufficient elixirs?"

Mu Qingwan coughed lightly and said softly:
"At present, it is very sufficient, and our alchemy tasks are becoming increasingly heavy.

When I first entered the Dan Ding Academy, I could complete my alchemy tasks in just over an hour each day, but now it takes me three hours, and that’s even with the increase in the number of pills I’ve made.”

Du Huaiyuan nodded in agreement:
"The sect has already begun stockpiling large quantities of medicinal pills. It is said that the spiritual herbs in the various medicine gardens have gradually matured, and the heavy task of refining pills will continue for a few more years."

He turned around and asked:
"Junior brother, where have you chosen your cave dwelling? What kind of missions do you plan to take on in the future?" Ji An replied, "I'm just a spiritual farmer, so of course I'll choose various planting missions as the missions for the sect.

The cave residence was chosen to be located at Chiyan Peak. Perhaps due to the increase in the task of refining pills, the sect's demand for various spiritual charcoal increased dramatically. Chiyan Peak is more suitable for growing spiritual trees to make spiritual charcoal.

The spiritual wood is also easier to care for, giving me more time to improve my cultivation and practice spells."

Du Huaiyuan scratched his head and pondered:

"I know that place. I once thought of choosing Scarlet Flame Peak. It's particularly suitable for brewing spirit wine.

But the water-based technique I chose was too difficult to improve my skills, so I had to give up.

Junior brother is practicing the Wood Element Kung Fu, so it wouldn't be easy for him to go there. Could it be that you are interested in the extra ten acres of spiritual farmland given by the sect?"

“There are factors involved.”

Liu Yu said in surprise:
"I know that place too. The spiritual power of Scarlet Flame Peak is too powerful and it is not suitable for Foundation Establishment cultivators to stay there for a long time.

Choosing that place as your cave dwelling may slow down your cultivation, but you can use the domineering golden wind and raging fire to purify your magic power."

The purpose of practicing during the foundation-building period is to comprehend the divine intention of the technique, and use this as an opportunity to refine the magic power and polish oneself, ultimately igniting the fire of life.

He thought to himself that Junior Brother Ji must have the ambition to break through to the Chaoyuan period, as could be seen from his choice of cave dwelling. As for what the other party said about being attracted by the extra spiritual fields, it should not be taken seriously.

However, it is too early to choose Chiyan Peak as the cave residence now. It will be more advantageous to wait until the later stage of foundation building.

He paused and smiled:

"I'll have to bother you more often in the future. I plan to visit you every once in a while to spend a few days in order to refine my magic power."

Originally, Chiyan Peak was rented out by the Chen family of Puyun Mountain. Even if he wanted to use the aura of golden wind and fierce fire to purify his magic power, it was not easy for him to go there often.

Now, that place has become the cave residence of my junior brother. Without this concern, I can get closer to my junior brother who has great ambitions.

"Haha, welcome, senior brother. I'll make a bed for you."

Ji An smiled and said, human relationships will become deeper through interactions.

He asked everyone about the preparations they needed to make for moving into the cave, and vaguely mentioned the unpleasant meeting he had with Chen Xingyun and Zhu Qinghao a few days ago.

Du Huaiyuan pounded the table lightly and said coldly:

"Brother Zhu is really something. Junior Brother is unwilling to change his mind and even joins forces with outsiders to force him to do so. I finally understand that he may not consider us his fellow disciples in his heart."

Mu Qingwan agreed:
"Because of Master's habit of accepting disciples, our realms are quite different from those of other senior brothers and sisters. We don't have the camaraderie of learning from Master at the same time, so it's normal for our relationship to be dull."

Li Lingyu said in a deep voice:

“Junior brother’s choice will probably be seen by the Chen family as a great vengeance that cuts off their financial resources.

You must be on guard against others, Junior Brother, be careful."

Her father was a casual cultivator and had told her many evil things about people's hearts.

Ji An smiled and said:

"Thank you for the reminder, Senior Sister. I don't plan to leave the sect in the next few years, and no one can do anything to me."

After a few years, his magic skills would be practiced to a more advanced level, and his ability to protect himself would be much stronger.

This is an exchange meeting for integrating resources. Liu Yu often handles monster materials. Ji An has reserved a batch of animal skins and monster blood essences. He will pick up the skill of making talismans in the future.

After the alchemist's proficiency is improved, completing the sect's alchemy tasks will give him a few more pills, which are the extra income earned by the alchemist by default.

Li Lingyu is now mainly responsible for refining the Qingling Pill, and Ji An and her have agreed to purchase the pill.

The supply of Foundation Establishment Pills has decreased a lot, and without a familiar alchemist, there are not many ways to purchase additional pills.

Li Lingyu and Mu Qingwan also ordered a batch of spiritual charcoal and alchemy auxiliary medicines from Ji An.

"Junior brother, you haven't even moved into the cave yet, but you can already clearly see the future benefits. I'm really envious.

I'm also ordering some spiritual charcoal, made from Ziyang wood and Qingling bamboo. I want 500 kilograms per year, payable on delivery."

Ji An was surprised: "Brother, you are using the water method to make the elixir, why do you need spiritual charcoal?"

"It has its own wonderful uses, you will know later."

Du Huaiyuan smiled mysteriously and said:
"Junior brother, let's make a deal. The deep pool at the foot of Scarlet Flame Peak is very effective in fermenting spiritual wine. How about letting me borrow this precious land from now on?"

I can’t do without Junior Brother’s help. Every time I make wine, I will give Junior Brother several jars of each kind of spiritual wine.”

"Brother, you can use it as long as you are not afraid that I will drink it secretly."

Du Huaiyuan scratched his head:
"I'll remember the amount of spirit wine."

Everyone smiled, talked for a while, and then went home.

Outside the cave, the setting sun shines obliquely on the green bamboo, and the purple tear marks are as red as blood, with a unique beauty.

Ji An stayed behind. He took out his fiery red magic sword and said with a wry smile:
“Senior Sister, it has been three years and I still haven’t sold it. I can only sell it in the Immortal City.

Let's go to Qingyun Fairy City together in a few days, sell the magic tools and divide the spirit stones."

He was planning to go to the Immortal City to purchase formation plates and other supplies, and he felt at ease when he asked someone to accompany him.

Li Lingyu nodded: "Okay, set the date, and Junior Brother will contact me."

The sect does not sell the main ingredients for refining pills, and she has no familiar spiritual farmers to cooperate with, so she can only go out and buy them.
