The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

The Nascent Soul cultivator on the human side is an ancestor of the Juxian Sect who is in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, one level higher than the tenth-order great demon.

The giant monster with a bird's head and a human body did not dare to underestimate the enemy. He exerted his demonic power to the extreme and pushed out with both palms.

With a loud "bang", the Jindan cultivators and seventh, eighth and ninth level demon birds and beasts in the nearby sky were all shaken to the ground by the aftermath of the dissipated spiritual power and almost fell down.

Fortunately, the Nascent Soul Patriarch of the Juxian Sect paid attention to the strength and concentrated all the attack power only in the high altitude, trying not to affect the people below.

An expert can tell whether there is any with just one palm strike. After a palm strike, the Peng bird demon did not dare to fight him head-on and turned and ran away.

The Yuanying Patriarch was unwilling to let him go easily and chased after him.

Seeing that their leader had run away, those monsters and birds above level seven dared not dawdle any longer and immediately used their magical powers to escape.

As a result, the low-level monsters below suffered, and they fled in all directions like stray dogs.

Xiao Han was caught in the aftermath of the attack from the Peng bird demon, and was knocked off the flying sword.

Then, it broke several branches of a big tree below before falling to the ground.

Thanks to the cushioning of these branches, and the toughness of the bones of a foundation-building cultivator tempered by spiritual energy, she did not break any bones.

She lay on the ground for a long time, until the disciples of the Juxian Sect who were cleaning up the battlefield flew over, and the surging spiritual energy in her body finally returned to normal.

Xiao Han, who survived the disaster, climbed up, called back his flying sword that had dropped not far away, quickly jumped onto the flying sword, and flew high into the sky.

When they were in the air, Xiao Han looked around and his mouth opened in shock.

I saw a huge sinkhole with a radius of more than ten miles appearing on the slope of the hilly area in front of me, which was originally covered with trees and weeds.

All the monsters, human cultivators, weeds and trees that were previously on the ground of the tiankeng have disappeared without a trace.

Is this the power of a high-ranking monk? With one palm strike, everything was reduced to dust.

Not only was she stunned, but the disciples of the Juxian Sect who gathered around her were also shocked and their faces turned pale.

If they had been in this area before, they would also have been left with no remains.

Everyone knew that a tenth-order Great Demon was on the same level as a Nascent Soul cultivator, and both were top-tier beings in the world of immortal cultivation. But how could these lesser cultivators have ever witnessed these powerful beings in action?

Of course, Xiao Han, who was present at the scene, felt it even more deeply, as she almost became one of the people trapped in the tiankeng.

"Save me, save me..."

It was not until a faint voice came from the ground that these monks were brought back to their senses.

Xiao Han looked in the direction of the voice and saw the person asking for help. It was none other than the triangular-eyed cultivator who had robbed his monster and was then attacked by him using the continuous arrow technique.

At this moment, he was lying on his back on the ground, blood was constantly flowing from his mouth, one hand was barely raised, and he was struggling to ask for help from the disciples of Juxian Sect in the sky.

It looks like even if he doesn't die immediately, he will be seriously injured.

Two foundation-building disciples from the Juxian Sect had already flown down. Xiao Han hesitated for a moment and then flew away.

Forget it. Considering that I had a fight with him and was able to escape death by accident, I won't bother with him stealing my prey.

Xiao Han walked around the tiankeng and picked up two low-level monsters that were killed by the aftermath of the spiritual power but whose bodies were still preserved. Then he turned and flew towards Xinyue City.

Although the monsters have fled in panic, it is inevitable that we will encounter monsters above level seven if we chase them this time, so we should not think about taking advantage of them.

She had just had a brush with death, and she was still a little scared.

The protective formation above Crescent City has been lifted, and the area around the city walls is in a mess. Qi-cultivating monks are searching everywhere for the remains of monsters.

Although the blood spilled in the city wall had been cleaned up by the disciples of the Juxian Sect using cleaning techniques, the clear smell of blood was still lingering in the air.

A disciple of the Juxian Sect stood at the city gate and shouted loudly, asking all injured cultivators to go to the temporary clinic opened in the City Lord's Mansion for free treatment.

In this battle, the most injured were naturally the Qi-cultivating cultivators. Upon hearing that the Juxian Sect would help with healing for free, these people's faces lit up with joy.

For them, being able to save money on buying healing pills is naturally a good thing.

Today was also the first time Xiao Han hadn't had to pay to enter New Moon City since arriving. Although the entrance fee of one spirit stone wasn't much, it felt different.

Walking on the street and seeing the shops opening one after another, Xiao Han suddenly thought of a question. In this beast tide, countless monsters were killed or injured. With so many different monsters flooding into the market at once, wouldn't the prices of monster meat and monster materials on the surface of Crescent City be plummeting?

No, she had to quickly sell all the monsters in the storage bag.

However, when she arrived at the butcher shop where she used to buy monster meat, the shop door was closed and there were already more than ten monks waiting there to sell goods.

Obviously, there are many cultivators who think the same as Xiao Han.

But the butcher was not stupid. He felt that no price was appropriate at this moment, so he simply decided not to buy the meat in a hurry.

The monks outside the city came back one after another, and the streets were bustling with people.

Then, more and more monks came looking to sell monster meat. Seeing that the butchers wouldn't open their doors to accept the goods, they gathered together and began to discuss. The good mood of killing monsters and preparing to sell them had long since disappeared, replaced by concerns about whether the monsters in their storage bags could be sold at a reasonable price.

At this moment, another foundation-building disciple from the Juxian Sect flew high in the sky, shouting, "Any cultivator who wants to sell monster meat and monster materials can go to the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion will buy them all at the market price."

When the people in front of the butcher shop heard this, they were overjoyed and rushed to the City Lord's Mansion, fearing that they would miss out if they were too late.

Xiao Han followed the crowd and ran for a few steps before suddenly realizing he could fly secretly. The Immortal City only prohibited high-altitude flying, but it didn't say flying close to the ground was prohibited.

He immediately controlled the flying sword and flew quickly on the ground at the height of a scooter.

Then, when she passed a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he saw her flying close to the ground with her sword and immediately exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my god, there's still such fun."

Because the major immortal cities did not allow foundation-building cultivators to fly over the city, everyone tacitly walked within the city. If they really wanted to go somewhere far away, they would just apply a light body talisman and run as fast as they could.

Now seeing Xiao Han's clever tricks and flying secretly, the foundation-building cultivator took out his flying sword without hesitation and followed Xiao Han's butt, flying close to the ground.

Xiao Han didn't even know that because of her actions today, from now on, if foundation-building cultivators wanted to travel quickly in the Immortal City, they would have to fly low to the ground on their flying swords.

At this time, there were already crowds of people in front of the City Lord's Mansion, all of whom were here to heal their wounds or sell their monsters.

The senior managers of the City Lord's Mansion saw this and decided that this was not acceptable.

He hurriedly sent someone out again to notify all the cultivators who were selling monster meat to go back first, and that the Huiju Xianzong would send disciples to purchase the meat at designated locations in each area.

Many monks were worried that the City Lord's Mansion's words were an excuse, so they gathered here and were unwilling to leave.

These independent cultivators had just returned from a desperate fight with a demonic beast. The Juxian Sect had offered to purchase the demonic beast at market price, originally in order to win over their hearts and appease these independent cultivators. Now that these people had gathered here and were unwilling to leave, it was difficult for them to forcibly expel them.

Xiao Han also mixed in the crowd to watch the fun. She had quite a few monsters in her storage bag, so naturally she wanted to get rid of them quickly and exchange them for spirit stones.

Another quarter of an hour later, the City Lord's Mansion sent out another person to announce that all cultivators who registered to participate in resisting the beast tide today would have their rent waived for half a year. Everyone was asked to return to their residential areas first, and the Juxian Sect would immediately send people to purchase the monsters.

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately aroused cheers from all the wandering cultivators present.

Although they were previously forced and threatened by City Lord Wang to resist the beast tide, the sudden announcement of rent reduction for them made everyone feel pleasantly surprised.

Xiao Han was also very happy. The rent for half a year was 60,000 spirit stones, which was really a pleasant surprise.

It has to be said that the Juxian Sect is worthy of being the largest sect in the world of immortal cultivation. It has invested some money in winning people's hearts and keeping independent cultivators in Xinyue City.

Compared with previous beast tides, this time, the beast tide came and ended quickly, and its scale was less than one-third of the previous ones.

This was also the first beast tide New Moon City had experienced since its founding. After this battle, the Juxian Sect's leaders gained more experience in how to quickly respond to future beast tides.

As the main force in resisting the beast tide, many independent cultivators died, which was also the key to the Juxian Sect's generous distribution of spirit stones.
