Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 203 The world is big, I want to see it

There was a faint sadness in the room, which deeply touched Wei Songnian.

He couldn't help but start thinking, how many steps can he take on the long road of cultivating immortality?

It may seem prosperous now, but time passes and he will eventually grow old. What is the difference between natural death and dying in the struggle for pursuit?

"Brother, what do you think is the most original motivation for our generation to cultivate immortality?
If one could truly become an immortal and live forever, what would be the point?"

Wei Songnian asked quietly, he was asking others and also asking himself.

“The most primitive motivation, I think, is the fear of death.

The meaning of infinite life is that we can calmly seek the meaning of life.

On the immortal road, every step you take will allow you to appreciate unprecedented scenery.

The footprints I left behind will tell the world that I have been here! "

Ji An said calmly. He recalled the first time he rode the Talisman Bird, the first time he controlled the wind with only his magic power, and the first time he cast a spell.

Too many firsts were waiting for him. If he had not opened up the immortal veins, he would not have been able to release spells. If he had not broken through the foundation, he would not have been able to release the Spring Breeze and Rain Art.

What is meaning? Meaning is both a result and a journey. The combination of the two creates meaning.

There are sword cultivators who can split mountains with one sword, there are magic cultivators who can burn rivers and boil seas, and there are physical cultivators who can cause mountains to collapse and the earth to collapse with one step.

Ji An knew that he was still at the bottom of the world of immortal cultivation. The world was huge and he wanted to go and see it.

He died a hundred years ago, so in this life he has more time and means to climb to the top and shout in the wind above the nine heavens, so that his fate as an immortal in this life will not be in vain.

Wei Songnian was silent for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Brother, your explanation is quite unique. Afraid of death?! Really."

Ask all living beings in the world, how many of them will remain calm at the end of their life.

He sighed resignedly and continued:
"Brother, your Dao heart and talent are beyond my reach even if I drive a flying shuttle.

I will be content if I can live a peaceful life in this life, and I hope I can see my family grow stronger little by little."

It has been more than ten years since he broke through to the foundation-building stage, and he has barely broken through to the third level of foundation-building. It seems good, but in fact, he knows his own business and it is all thanks to the accumulation of elixirs.

He did not have a deep understanding of the technique, so he had no hope of reaching the Chaoyuan stage. Being able to achieve the late foundation building stage was his limit.

Wei Songnian laughed and said:
“Although I don’t have much hope of climbing to the top in my lifetime, I hope that my descendants will be able to appreciate the higher scenery on my behalf.

Brother, I have found a Taoist partner, and the celebration will be held in a while.

In the future, I will definitely have more children. Who knows, one of them might become successful."

If his child has good talent and can join the sect, he would like to ask Ji An to accept him as a disciple.

He and Senior Brother Ji have known each other for many years, and he increasingly finds that the other party has unfathomable potential.

However, I can't tell you these thoughts now. As long as I maintain a good relationship with him in the future, it will be natural for him to accept me as my disciple.

Ji An was stunned, his expression was a little strange, and he thought to himself:
"You don't curl up, do you?"

He coughed lightly and said with a smile:

"When are you planning to hold the celebration? What is the woman's background?"

"It will be held in half a year. She is a distant cousin. Her family fell into poverty and she lives with me in Mingfeng Mountain Fairy City over the years.

She has a good chance of building a foundation with her top-grade talent, and I am currently preparing the materials for the foundation-building pill."

Ji An said with a smile:
"Is the other party staying in Xiancheng now?"

"No, there was something going on in the family some time ago, so she went back with her aunt.

If you are here, I will definitely introduce you to my senior brother."

Ji An did not continue the topic and asked:
"Have you been in contact with Senior Brother Liu Yu and the others?"

The other party knows all his connections, and given his personality, he will definitely try to make friends with them.

Wei Songnian nodded:
"Yes, I keep in touch with Senior Brother Liu Yu, Senior Brother Zhang Yuanshan, Senior Sister Zhao Mengyao, and Senior Brother Chu He.

I'm sending someone to deliver a letter now, asking if they have time tonight so we can all go to the restaurant together. What do you think, Senior Brother?"

"good."

At the end of the You hour, the lights begin to come on.

Looking down from the sky, you can see dots of light in the fairy city, shining brightly with the stars in the sky.

Dingxiang Pavilion is the property of Luofeng Valley and also the most famous restaurant in Xizhou.

Because there are many high-level spiritual farmers in the sect, the spiritual chefs of Luofeng Valley cook spiritual herbs and monster meat into medicinal meals.

These medicinal foods not only contain more spiritual energy, but also can regulate qi and blood and nourish the internal organs.

In the attic private room, Wei Songnian danced skillfully and created a very harmonious atmosphere.

Ji An looked at Zhao Mengyao, whose brows were full of heroic spirit, and sighed:
"Senior Sister has been training in the Law Enforcement Hall. She has a resolute and courageous demeanor in her actions. I admire her."

Since the establishment of Mingfeng Mountain Fairy City, the other party has been staying here all year round, gaining insights and breakthroughs in battle, with a hint of solemnity on his face.

There are not many high-level female cultivators, and even fewer who are good at fighting.

Zhao Mengyao burst out laughing, her voice clear and crisp, her chest heaving.

"I'm only at the fourth level of foundation building now, and I feel something is not right when I'm praised by my senior brother who is at the fifth level."

She learned about Ji An's cultivation level from Liu Yu and was amazed.

Thinking back to when they entered the sect, the other party owed them several debts. She originally thought that the other party would have a hard time, but she didn't expect that he would soar to success.

Now, even his cultivation level has surpassed hers, making her realize that the other party's potential has been tapped.

She guessed that the other party possessed some kind of Taoist body, and she was even more envious.

Some Dao bodies are developed in the later stages, and their effects on cultivators are comparable to those of heavenly aptitude.

Ji An picked up the wine glass and said with a smile:
"Every word is sincere. The situation in Mingfeng Mountain is not as bad as that of a sect. I admire you three cultivators from the Law Enforcement Hall for being able to gain a foothold here. Let me toast to you all!"

He was able to stay in the sect and practice peacefully, thanks to the three sect law enforcement teams in the Immortal City.

"Dry!"

Everyone drank heavily.

After Liu Yu finished drinking, he asked with a smile:

"Junior brother, what are you doing here in Immortal City? Could it be that you have received a mission from the sect?"

Most of the tasks issued by the sect recruit alchemists and weapon refiners, but I have never heard of recruiting spiritual farmers.

Ji An recounted his story of purchasing the monster cub, and then said:
“I came by to see the current situation of the Immortal City and see if I can buy some rare seeds and seedlings, or other unique items.

Brothers, if you find a demon beast cub with earth-grade bloodline and want to sell it, you can also contact me. I will stay in the Immortal City this month."

If you ask who can get in touch with the monster cubs first, it is of course the monks of the Law Enforcement Hall and other monster hunters who often carry out monster hunting missions.

Zhao Mengyao shook her head slightly and said:
"I can't help you with this. If I come across a Earth-grade demon beast cub, I'll be the first to buy it."

She is a beastmaster, and it is her instinct to breed more and stronger monsters.

Even if you encounter slow-growing turtle monster eggs, you can buy them and give them back to the family.

Liu Yu nodded slightly and said with a smile:
"I have no plans to raise a beast yet. If I come across a suitable cub, I will try to get it for you, but only for this month."

The smaller the monster cub, the easier it is to sell. If people are not in the fairy city, there is no time to waste.

Ji An bowed: "Thank you, Senior Brother. I understand."

The smaller the monster cub, the easier it is to strike a blood pact with it. Some cultivators will buy monster cubs for their descendants so that the beasts can grow up with them.

"Where is your place, Junior Brother?"

Wei Songnian answered quickly:

"I'll arrange for Senior Brother Ji to stay at the Wei family's talisman shop. There are guest rooms in the backyard there."

Ji An nodded in agreement, saying that it was good to save the cost of accommodation.

Chu He's voice was much heavier than before, and he said in a muffled voice:
"Brother Ji, a few days ago, our team was on a mission and wiped out a nest of Jade Wood Apes and captured several of them alive.

These monsters can actually brew spirit wine. Are you interested in buying a few?"

Ape-like monsters are extremely intelligent, and it is not uncommon to see groups of monkeys that can brew magical wine.

Monkey wine is a spiritual wine brewed from hundreds of fruits. After years of fermentation, it contains abundant spiritual power.

Ji An shook his head slightly and declined politely:

"There aren't many spiritual fruit trees on Scarlet Flame Peak, so there aren't enough conditions to brew Hundred Fruit Wine. It's not suitable for raising these monkey monsters."

He believes that the monkey demon's winemaking is unique and has a lot to do with the tribe's habitat, and is not replicable.

Even if the entire monkey tribe is moved to a certain place, it is still unknown whether they can still brew spiritual wine due to environmental changes.

Everyone was talking and laughing, talking about their experiences, and before they knew it, an hour had passed.

Zhang Yuanshan said:
"My mission will be over in half a year. I really miss my time in the sect."

He was in charge of the sect's weapon refining shop, repairing and refining magical weapons. Although he gained a lot, he had much less time to practice.

If possible, he still wants to refuse this kind of busyness.

At this moment, he was full of envy for Ji An. The environment around Mingfeng Mountain made it impossible to recruit spiritual farmers, at least not now.

Liu Yudao:
"In the future, everyone will be busy, and then you will miss the present."

As the night deepened, everyone dispersed.

Ji An and his companion returned to the Wei's shop on Zhuque Street. He declined Wei Songnian's suggestion to send a maid to serve him, and returned to the guest room to practice his skills to refine the spiritual food.

Silent all night.

The next day, Ji An woke up on time at the hour of Mao. His mind sank into his dantian and connected with the stone turtle.

After observation, it was found that the growth of Kun and Gen spiritual energy here was a little more than that of Chiyan Peak, while the growth of other spiritual energy was very small, especially Li Ling, which did not increase at all.

Ji An came to the courtyard and performed the small cloud and rain technique beside the green tree. A ball of white mist as big as a washbasin rolled up, and spiritual rain fell.

He took some water to wash up, then returned to the house, took a Green Lotus Pill and began to practice.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. The improvement of one's cultivation is the result of the accumulation of little steps in daily life, which leads to the final breakthrough.

Without accumulation, there will never be a day when you can emerge as a butterfly from your cocoon.

Spiritual energy gathered towards Ji An's room, and the trees in the courtyard moved without wind, and the rustling sound of leaves was endless.

It was already 9:00 PM when Ji An finished his training, and a maid was waiting at the door, bringing him some hot spiritual food.

He was having breakfast when Wei Songnian came in and said:
"Brother, I personally went to all the major beast taming shops, greeted them, and paid the deposit.

If there is any news about earth-grade monster cubs, they will inform me as soon as possible.

but"

"But what? If you have something to say, just say it. No need to be hesitant. Is there anything inconvenient for us brothers to talk?"

"Brother, you also know that the competition for Earth-grade bloodline monster cubs is very fierce. Those shops have made it clear that we have to compete with other cultivators who have the same aspirations."

Ji An touched his chin and nodded slightly:

"Shops are in high demand and it's understandable that they want to make more money. Let's compete, at least there's a chance."

Earth-grade bloodline monster cubs are considered strategic resources and are difficult to buy with spirit stones, so he was well prepared and brought some second-level spiritual objects.

"Hehe, I'm not afraid that my senior brother will think that I'm not doing my job well.

By the way, what are your plans these days, Senior Brother?"

Ji An transmitted the message:
"How could I possibly have such thoughts since you were able to offer me the Soul-Nourishing Wood? Don't think about it anymore."

He spoke again:
“Draw talismans in the morning and go out for a walk in the afternoon.

Junior brother, send me a smart guy. Every afternoon I will go to the square where the casual cultivators set up stalls to check. "

He didn't have the attitude of picking up bargains, but rather had the mentality of gaining experience.

A lot of knowledge came from jade slips, but jade slips were not memory instillations, so his understanding of many things remained superficial.

Although there aren't many good things at the stalls of casual cultivators, there are enough varieties that he can connect knowledge with real objects.

Wei Songnian agreed:
"No problem, I'll arrange it for you, brother.

I have a nephew, Wei Shouqing, who works at a spirit wine shop. He's very clever, so I asked him to wait here after noon."

Wei Shouqing stood respectfully at the door of the guest room. Wei Songnian specially found him, gave him some instructions, and gave him five hundred spirit stones.

He learned from his uncle that the other party was a noble man his uncle had made friends with in the sect. He was a high-level talisman maker who had planted thousands of acres of spiritual fields.

The talisman weapons and top-grade talismans in the talisman shop, as well as more than 70% of the spiritual wines in the spiritual wine shop, were all made by the other party.

After lunch, Ji An said kindly:

"Shouqing, right? Sorry for the long wait, let's go."

“Senior, you are too polite, please follow me.

The stalls are most crowded in the afternoon, so it’s the busiest time to go there.”

The two walked out of the talisman shop and headed west. Wei Shouqing introduced the characteristics of the shops on the roadside from time to time.

The cultivators walked very fast. After about half an hour, the two arrived at a large square.

The people setting up stalls were all cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, and they were hawking their wares like ordinary people, making the scene very noisy.

Ji An watched with great interest, squatting down from time to time to pick up the objects to carefully identify them and talk to the stall owner.

Most of the casual cultivators could recognize the standard robes of the Jinling Sect's foundation-building cultivators. Although he didn't buy anything, the stall owners maintained a polite attitude and answered all his questions.

The sun sets in the west, and the sunset covers the fairy city with a veil of gauze.

Ji An suddenly felt a surge of desire coming from the stone turtle in his dantian, and he stopped in front of a stall.

After finding the object that aroused the Stone Turtle's desire, he bent down to pick it up and asked:

"How do you sell things?"

This is a yellowish-brown ellipsoidal stone that looks like a seed, the size of a little finger bone, with messy white patterns on the surface.

The stall owner was an elderly cultivator, an eighth-level Qi Refining cultivator, with gray hair and cloudy eyes.

He didn't recognize this thing and had put it on display for a long time but couldn't sell it. However, neither roasting it with fire nor hitting it with a hammer was of any use, so he felt that it was not an ordinary thing.

However, when he went to several sects' shops to sell his goods, no one would buy them and they even kicked him out.

　The third update: I have paid off what I owed last month.
