Start building the foundation: What is the Southern Xinjiang Corpse Puppet?

After returning to the city, Luo Shan's tense expression relaxed a little. He had been in a state of high-intensity combat before, and had to divide his attention to control the corpse puppets. Now that he was back in the city, he realized that his spiritual power was over-consumed.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, are you injured?" Ling Wanran noticed that Luo San was not in good condition and his face was too pale, so she asked worriedly.

Luo Shan stretched out his hand and pinched his brow, nodded and said: "My spiritual consciousness is over-consumed, I will go back to the rental courtyard first, what about you, Brother Ling?"

As for the sea monster in the storage bag, Luo Shan was not in a hurry.

"I'll go back to my rented house too." Ling Wanran replied.

As the two were talking, they walked towards the rented yard. An old man and a young boy were both in the yard. Luo Shan had performed the cleansing spell on himself at the end. Perhaps it was because he had killed so many monsters that he seemed to have some bloody smell on his body.

The old man walked out of the house and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Luo Shan. Just as he was about to speak, he bumped into Ling Wanran, who was covered in blood. He was startled and asked hurriedly:

"Fairy Ling, are you injured?"

The blood-covered appearance was really frightening. Ling Wanran felt many people's eyes on her as she walked through the city.

"It's not a big deal. This is blood-marked ink. I was accidentally hit by it, so this happened." Ling Wanran explained helplessly.

"So that's how it is. This blood ink is difficult to clean, but it is harmless to monks." The old man nodded and looked at Luo Shan again:

"Fairy Luo, a female cultivator came to the door today. She asked me to give this item to you."

After saying that, he took out a strange white cocoon-like object from his storage bag.

"Southern Xinjiang insect cocoon?" Luo Shan frowned, and suddenly remembered what Gu Qingcheng had told her about Ying Chan a month ago. How could she come here from Southern Xinjiang so quickly?

"I understand." Luo Shan took the jade cocoon, probed it with his spiritual sense, and found that the poisonous insect was still in the jade cocoon.

"Fairy Luo, that female cultivator's clothes are very strange, she doesn't look like a cultivator from Dongyue." The old man thought for a moment and reminded Luo San.

"I understand, thank you."

After putting away the jade cocoon and talking to the old man, Luo Shan went straight back to his room.

On the other side, inside the Song Mansion, Ying Chan sat upright on a huanghuali wood chair. On her left shoulder, a palm-sized butterfly with different-colored wings flapped its wings slowly.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, thank you for sending me the message this time."

Ying Chan said as she took out a jade box from her storage bag: "This is a very special Gu worm from my Nanjiang Gu Clan, so I'm giving it to you, Daoist Fellow Gu."

Gu Qingcheng did not refuse. After taking it, she also took out a wooden box from her storage bag: "This is the mermaid pearl I got when I hunted the sea monster not long ago. It has the effect of keeping your youth."

"By the way, Daoist Fellow Ying, are you here to fulfill your appointment with Daoist Fellow Luo in the secret realm?"

"Yes, since I promised her, I will not break my promise."

Ying Chan knew in her heart that if the matter was not completely resolved, both she and Luo Shan would probably develop mental demons.

She did not do anything about Luo Shan's refining of the foundation-building corpse puppet, but when it came down to it, it was the people from her Gu clan who stood up for her, which led to the subsequent events.

She always felt that she was slightly better than Luo Shan in both character and cultivation aptitude, so when faced with Luo Shan's repeated provocations, she only wanted to defeat her fairly and had never resorted to any insidious means.

When she found out that some people from the Gu tribe had attacked Luo San without telling her, she was a little angry. In her eyes, Luo San had never been her opponent, but her tribesmen felt that she was on par with Luo San and even did not hesitate to use insidious means to persecute the other party.

In this case, doesn't it mean that I can't beat Luo San and can only use these means?

So much so that after this incident, her originally calm attitude towards Luo San began to show cracks.

Then the other party forcibly broke through the foundation and entered the Donglin Secret Realm.

When the two Gu Shi tribes formed an alliance and openly killed her people, she was furious at that moment.

But after her anger, she had to admit that this time, she truly regarded Luo San as her opponent.

No matter whether what her people did was right or wrong, it was all for her, and her battle with Luo San was inevitable.

"However, Wuwang City was attacked by monsters recently. I'm afraid the matter between you and Fellow Daoist Luo can only be resolved after this incident is over." Gu Qingcheng said.

"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who ignores the overall situation. Right now, my priority is to deal with the demon clan." Ying Chan also understood that now was not the time to resolve personal disputes.

"By the way, why did the demons join forces with the sea monsters when they invaded the human city this time?" She remembered that the sea monsters and the demons of the Far North were not on good terms.

"I don't know. I'm afraid we'll have to wait for someone from the sect to come to find out." Calculating the time, it's almost time for someone to come.

Luo Shan rested in the rented courtyard for a day, and Suihua went to the Points Hall to exchange points.

"Three monsters in the middle stage of foundation building will each get 20 points, ten monsters in the early stage will each get 12 points, and eight monsters in the peak stage of Qi refining will each get 10 points, a total of 260 points. This is your points card. Enter your divine breath and use your divine sense to investigate." The foundation building cultivator from the Points Hall handed a jade card to Luo Shan.

"Please help me exchange the points into spirit stones." Luo Shan did not take it, but wanted the other party to exchange the points into spirit stones.

"Fairy, wait a moment." The male cultivator who was in the foundation-building stage looked at Luo Shan in surprise, but said nothing. He dutifully wiped off the points on the jade token, took out the bag of spirit stones and handed it over.

"This is 13,000 spirit stones, Fairy, keep it."

"Yes." Luo Shan took the bag of spirit stones, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and then threw it into the storage bag.

Then he turned around and was about to leave the Points Hall, but he heard a surprised voice in his ear: "Hey, am I hallucinating? I just saw someone climb up the jade tablet, but in the blink of an eye, he disappeared again."

"No way, I think you are just dazzled."

"I think I saw it, too. It's really strange."

"Speaking of which, who is this person who actually surpassed the young master of the Wang family?"

On the points jade tablet not far away, a name caught everyone's attention.

"You don't even know her. Ling Wanran, Fairy Ling, is the one who announced her departure from Qingyun Sect earlier."

Luo Shan was about to step out of the Points Hall when he paused and then turned back. When he walked to the side of the jade stele, he looked up and saw only the three words "Foundation Building List" written on the top of the jade stele.

Below are the names of the cultivators in order. Ling Wanran, who was just mentioned, is ranked tenth, just above the young master of the Wang family.

The first place is Song Guili from Wuji Sect, followed by Gu Qingcheng. The two of them are at the top of the list, and their points are terrifying.

Luo Shan converted the numbers into spirit stones in his mind and took a deep breath. These two great masters of the Wuji Sect really had a lot of spirit stones!

After leaving the Points Hall, Luo Shan went all the way to the formation passage. After all, in her eyes at this moment, the monsters outside the city were nothing but naked spirit stones.
