Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 369: Top-grade Spiritual Vein Dojo
For a moment, the scene was a little awkward. Zhu Xiangrong felt as if his cheeks were being roasted by fire, causing a burning pain.

Jia Yu scratched his head and said suspiciously:

"That's not right. I asked Junior Brother Lin, and he clearly stated that he wouldn't come."

The other party is currently at a critical point in his cultivation and cannot be distracted by other things.

The silver light came from far away and soon arrived at the Red Flame Peak, circled half a circle in the cold pond, and fell directly into the bamboo forest.

Li Haoran, dressed in a dark Taoist robe, had eyes as deep as an autumn lake. The moment he landed, all his aura subsided, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly:

"I came back just in time to encounter the eruption of Red Flame Peak again!"

The last time the volcano erupted, he obtained some resources and after tempering them, he upgraded his flying sword to the level of a second-level spiritual weapon.

With Li Haoran's arrival, the air suddenly became cold and quiet, like the top of a snowy mountain after a howling wind.

Ji An's pupils shrank slightly. He vaguely saw translucent blue ice particles floating in front of his eyes and sensed a different sword intent.

In the past, the opponent's sharp aura full of gold may have felt icy, but that was because of the spiritual chill brought about by the sword's cutting intent.

But at this moment, the opponent's restrained sword intent contained a real level of coldness.

The opponent's sword intent has already undergone a second level of change. What an enviable sword talent!
He smiled back, "When did you come back, Senior Brother? Seeing you today, you're even more charming than before."

In order to strengthen the Water Divine Palace, the other party has been traveling to the Far North for many years. Now that he has returned, his Water Palace must have successfully entered the third level of Chaoyuan Period.

The breakthrough in realm was not unexpected, but the sword intent reached a higher level. Such talent was a bit terrifying.

It takes other people many years to gain some insights into the sword's meaning, but for him, comprehending the sword's meaning is as easy as eating and drinking water!
The damage brought by the dual sword intent will probably be of a qualitative improvement.

"I just came back. I met with the ancestors and the master. I learned that the spiritual vein here is upgraded and the volcano is about to erupt, so I hurried here."

Li Haoran cupped his hands and said solemnly:
"I've met several senior brothers and junior brothers."

Jia Yu laughed heartily, "I'm glad you're back, Old Ancestor and Junior Brother Lin were a little worried about you!
But I'm afraid Senior Brother Zhu doesn't want to see you back, at least today."

Zhu Xiangrong laughed and scolded, "What are you talking about? I'm not such a stingy person!"

When Li Haoran comes, he will be able to exchange for fewer gold-type spiritual objects, but after exchanging these spiritual objects, he will also use them on his fellow disciples.

Sword cultivators do not need other kinds of spiritual objects, so he can take the fire spiritual objects into his possession.

Everyone smiled, and Jia Yu continued:

"Oh right, let's make a deal first. Aside from what we need right now, all other spiritual objects must be stored in the sect's secret vault according to a certain ratio.

Calculating the time, the Zhongzhou Merchant Alliance flying boat will arrive in five or six years. We need to prepare a large amount of resources to exchange for things."

The ancestor ordered that this time, they must trade for two or more Golden Elixirs from the Chamber of Commerce, which would consume a large amount of reserves in the secret vault.

"understood."

"clear."

Hearing the others agree, Jia Yu nodded and asked again:

"Is anyone else coming?"

Ji An replied, "Senior Sister Ge Luoying will come."

This is a good time to collect resources. Senior Sister Ge’s flying sword needs to be tempered into a second-level mid-grade one.

This is the disadvantage of sword cultivation. The flying sword that they cultivate with their life needs to be tempered step by step as their cultivation level increases. They cannot achieve the gorgeous transformation from low-grade spiritual weapons to top-grade spiritual weapons like he did.

Zhu Xiangrong nodded imperceptibly and said with a smile:

"It's better than the last eruption without Junior Brother Lin."

If other people don't need top-grade spiritual objects, he can exchange for more. Equipment refiners naturally like to hoard some precious resources, and the same goes for alchemists, they hoard spiritual medicines.

An hour later, the bright moon rose, and the distant mountains looked like a demon with bared fangs and claws. A strong wind began to blow in the Red Flame Peak, and a strong smell of sulfur spread.

Everyone rode the clouds into the sky and watched quietly as the golden-red fog rose up noisily.

A silver line came from afar, and the sword chanting was clear, but its momentum was far less domineering than Li Haoran's.

Ji An knew that it must be Senior Sister Ge who came.

The earth trembled and rumbled, as if a dragon was turning over.

A pillar of fire gushed out, like a rising fire dragon lighting up the night sky.

Ji An's eyes were filled with passionate red, and he marveled at the power of nature.

He didn't know at what level the cultivator's magic could reach such a level. He felt that only a True Lord at the Nascent Soul level could master such divine power.

The giant dragon rose hundreds of feet into the air, and the flames could be seen clearly from dozens of miles away.

The volcanic ash flew like black snow.

"Everyone, I'll go first!"

Li Haoran swung his sword, a flash of light appeared, and crystal snowflakes appeared in the sky, forming a sharp contrast with the black volcanic ash.

Groying smiled faintly and flew in the opposite direction.

Zhu Xiangrong drove the Three Yangs away from the furnace, "My two junior brothers, I'm leaving now."

Ji An and Jia Yu landed on the ground and looked up at the sky.

About a quarter of an hour later, the height of the magma eruption continued to decrease, and lava gushed out of the crater like flowing molten iron, continuously downwards.

Rich spiritual energy surged from each spiritual vein node, with Red Flame Peak as the center. Waves of strong winds invaded outward, blowing the spiritual trees this way and that. Ji An narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling the wisps of mysterious energy passing through his body, captured by the stone turtle.

The firmness and toughness of metal, the moisture and surge of water, the growth and concealment of wood, the brightness and explosiveness of fire, and the bearing and nourishment of earth.

In a trance, he saw the earth covered with emerald green and towering trees, thunder roaring in the sky, and flames sweeping across the earth.

There seemed to be infinite power in the earth flowing into the body through the legs, as if it had been heavy for billions of years.

Energy is gathering in the land, and water is flowing deep underground.

Compared to the last volcanic eruption, Ji An understood more this time.

The Dao Yun was increasing rapidly, and his mood was like eating a honey osmanthus cake. In one word, sweet!

The feeling of getting twice the reward is so satisfying.

Jia Yu took a sip of wine and said loudly:
"Junior Brother Ji, is there anything wrong with your cave?

This time the volcano erupted for a bit longer than the last time. Will the lava flow to the entrance of your cave?"

"Don't worry, brother. I've made preparations long ago."

Ji An opened his eyes. He had already dug two barrier trenches, three meters wide, two meters deep, and twenty meters long, fifty meters above the cave. There would definitely be no problem.

"That's good."

"Now that the volcanic eruption has ended and the turmoil in the earth's spiritual power has gradually subsided, there's no point in us just standing around outside.

Brother, please come into the living room and talk. I have asked my disciples to prepare some wine and food. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could have a few drinks together?"

Jia Yu shook the wine gourd in his hand and said, "Excellent!"

In the living room, the two of them raised their glasses and drank from them, chatting and chatting.

After finishing the delicious fish soup, Jia Yu smacked his lips with satisfaction and said:

"This time, with the spiritual vein's grade upgraded and the five elements' energy colliding, Junior Brother should have gained a deep understanding, right?"

The last time the volcano erupted, he asked the other party a similar question, and the other party understood it at that time. You have to know that he was a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building at that time!

"This time we have a lot of harvest, much more than last time."

Ji An smiled, the harvest was beyond his expectation.

"Speaking of which, Scarlet Flame Peak is also a region blessed by nature, containing the five elements. It is a unique place in this sect."

Noon the next day.

After searching for the second half of the night and the whole morning, the monks searched Chiyan Peak thoroughly.

I can't guarantee that all the spiritual objects have been collected, but I have definitely not missed any spiritual objects of the second level or above.

These spiritual objects are not buried deep underground and cannot escape the spiritual scan of the monks.

Compared to the others who were searching hard, Ji An and the other two had food and drink, and even took time to sleep for two hours.

Everyone divided the spiritual objects. Zhu Xiangrong led his disciples to leave first, and Ge Luoying also said goodbye soon after.

Jia Yu said with a smile:

"This time, we've gained more than last time. Once the Red Flame Peak's spiritual veins are upgraded to the second-grade ultimate quality, perhaps third-grade resources will gush out from underground."

Ji An curled his lips and said, "Senior Brother, you are daydreaming, it's better for you to wake up as soon as possible.

It's only been a few years since the sect's main spiritual vein was upgraded to the third level, so it's absolutely impossible for Scarlet Flame Peak to produce a third-level spiritual creature."

"Junior brother, you don't know this. Do you think that all these spiritual creatures that gushed out were born after the sect occupied this place?
Of course not. Spiritual veins will be born in the earth. Spiritual veins are like trees. They can grow luxuriantly and their grade will continue to improve.

But spiritual veins also have a lifespan. Although it can last tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years, they will also wither and die like trees.

Perhaps tens of thousands of years ago, a third- or fourth-tier spiritual vein was nurtured here and then withered."

Jia Yu explained that he had nothing to do in the treasure pavilion, and apart from drinking, he had studied many things.

It also covers extremely niche knowledge such as the improvement and decline of spiritual veins.

After all, the sect's inherited knowledge is not as rich as that of the Nascent Soul Sect. A lot of the recorded knowledge is not detailed, and only a few words can't satisfy his curiosity at all.

Ji An thought carefully and nodded:

"Brother, what you said makes sense. I am superficial."

"Haha, Junior Brother, your cultivation is constantly improving, so of course you don't need to worry about these things."

Jia Yu put away the spiritual object, drank a sip of wine, and hung the gourd around his waist. "Two junior brothers, goodbye, I have to go back and report this harvest to the ancestor.

Junior Brother Ji, remember to send a message to the Qingong Palace to inform them that the spiritual vein has been upgraded. Palace Master Zhang will send someone to survey the spiritual vein for further upgrades.

Let me know when the time comes so I can allocate resources."

No one could have imagined that the Chiyan Summit would become a second-grade, superior spiritual vein training ground. He was even a little jealous.

"Understood. I will send a golden sword of communication to Senior Brother Zhang later."

Jia Yu flew away on a cloud, and Li Haoran transmitted a message:
"Junior brother, I heard from the ancestor that the spiritual plant I brought back from the Canglan Secret Realm is actually a precious plant, the Phoenix Tree, which can be upgraded to the fourth level?"

"Yes, unless the ancestor's judgment is wrong."

Ji An smiled bitterly and cried poorly:
"I'm going to lose money on this deal. The ancestor said that the Phoenix tree can only bear fruit when it is upgraded to the third level, otherwise there will be no profit."
