Chapter 461: Killing two birds with one stone

Chen Zi Ya was overjoyed upon hearing this; it was indeed a very good idea, so she hurriedly said: "That's really great! Let's set off as early as possible tomorrow.

To avoid delaying for too long and starving them to death, that wouldn't be good! And we must dig up as many purple bamboo clusters as possible; I can arrange these purple bamboo clusters into an array, and they will act like array flags by then!

If we add these Shock-Spirit Cicadas this time, then perhaps even Purple Mansion stage cultivators might not be able to break through the great array I set up!"

Lin Zhangqing nodded after hearing this; this idea was good, and he could feel more at ease when he went out to venture in the future.

The problem of the Shock-Spirit Cicadas was temporarily put to rest; starting tomorrow, they would first go to find that sacrificial array.

After dealing with the departure mark, they would return to the Purple Bamboo Forest to dig up the purple bamboo clusters; fortunately, they were generally in the same direction, which was relatively convenient.

Next was the link the two were most familiar with; Lin Zhangqing took out the spoils of war harvested today, a total of seven or eight storage bags.

Chen Zi Ya smiled and didn't say anything; she and Lin Zhangqing already had great tacit understanding, and each picked one up and began to refine them.

Among them, the cultivator from the Ghost-Controlling Sect provided two storage bags, and the remaining six were from the two unlucky fellows of the Heavenly Star Sword Sect.

Each person refined four storage bags; because Lin Zhangqing's spiritual sense was stronger, he was slightly faster than Chen Zi Ya in completing the refining task.

All the items were poured onto the ground, and subsequently, the two began to sort them by category.

In fact, before all sect disciples entered to participate in the trial, the sect would suggest they organize the items in their storage bags.

Leaving only the parts that would definitely be used, and as for cultivation techniques, secret arts, jade slips, and other unnecessary things, they were advised to leave them in the sect as much as possible.

So there weren't actually that many things that needed to be organized; in just a short while, the two had organized everything!

In terms of spirit stones, there were over five thousand low-grade spirit stones, and only over seven hundred mid-grade spirit stones; this was mainly because the sword cultivators of the Heavenly Star Sword Sect were basically all poor ghosts.

If they had spirit stones and resources, they would all be used to cultivate their own flying swords; each person needed many flying swords, and relatively speaking, the "Heavenly Star Ten Thousand Swords Sutra" was also a bottomless pit.

In terms of pills, they harvested thirty or forty bottles; the two picked out the pills suitable for them, and those unnecessary or unknown pills were placed on the other side first.

In terms of spirit tools, there were many; after counting, there were actually forty-five pieces, and twenty-five flying swords were found alone.

Most of them were second-stage upper-grade, with a small amount of second-stage top-grade spirit tools, but the flying sword spirit tools of sword cultivators were all prepared to be used as native flying swords in the future.

They had already initially condensed their essence blood into the flying swords, so even if others got them in their hands, they wouldn't be able to exert the full power of these flying sword spirit tools.

And it was also very easy to be identified by the cultivators of the Heavenly Star Sword Sect as the flying swords of their sect disciples, thereby causing unnecessary trouble.

Therefore, neither of them chose these flying swords; there were still several yin-attribute spirit tools left, which were all things from the Ghost-Controlling Sect cultivator.

The two of them had no use for them in their hands; the remaining dozen or so spirit tools were mostly defensive spirit tools; Lin Zhangqing and Chen Zi Ya each chose two defensive spirit tools for backup.

The rest were put together, and then came the jade boxes; there were hundreds more, and he had the most of these things in his hand. If he added the ones harvested before, he might have five or six thousand jade boxes; however, this secret realm was still mainly about killing demonic beasts to obtain demonic cores.

So they didn't find many spirit herbs in the jade boxes, only twelve in total, but fifty-six demonic cores of various stages were found, all of which he collected.

There were also some corpses and materials of demonic beasts, and the rest were daily necessities, clothing, and sundries.

The jade slips were all taken by Chen Zi Ya to check, while Lin Zhangqing collected the organized items by category.

Then, taking advantage of the time Chen Zi Ya was checking the jade slips, Lin Zhangqing left the array and patrolled the surroundings.

Finding a hidden place and confirming there were no cultivators or demonic beasts around, he entered the inner space directly.

Entering this time, there was only one purpose, which was to bring out all the spirit plant bags in the storage room, and distribute some to Chen Zi Ya to refine in advance.

Only then would it be convenient for them later; after spending some time dealing with the deer and feeding them spirit-nurturing pills.

He entered the storage room in the courtyard and searched through it, finding a total of twenty-eight spirit plant bags, all of which he carried on his body.

He couldn't delay in the inner space for too long, otherwise Chen Zi Ya would probably come out to look for him! After instructing Xu Meiniang and Zhao Liyu to take good care of the newly arrived Lu Youren family, he exited the inner space.

When he returned to the second-stage Return to Origin Breath Absorption Array, Chen Zi Ya had already started cultivating, and he didn't disturb her.

He took out the No-Thought Jade Cushion on the other side and began to cultivate the Thunder True Scripture; by the time he finished cultivating and packed up.

It was already two hours later, and Chen Zi Ya was looking at him with a smile; at this time, there was no need to say anything more.

He went over and pulled her into his arms, and the auras of the two became intense; needless to say, they directly started cultivating the "Yin-Yang Harmony Sutra"; this time was relatively long.

Because a short separation was better than a new marriage, the two were a bit unable to restrain themselves, so once they started cultivating, they forgot the time a bit!

Early the next morning, after the two packed everything up and released Chuyi.

The two set off toward the sacrificial array discovered by Lin Zhangqing; the two rode on the same flying boat.

Lin Zhangqing took her, which was more energy-saving, while Chen Zi Ya sat opposite him and brewed spirit tea for him.

In the trial secret realm, the only ones who could have such leisure were probably the two of them! After flying for more than an hour, Lin Zhangqing received Chuyi's early warning, saying that there was a group of more than a dozen demonic beasts about ten li ahead.

Since it was on the way, he wasn't prepared to take a detour; anyway, even if they were all second-stage demonic beasts, he could handle them! The distance of ten li was covered in an instant; flying to the front to take a look, it was actually a group of Green-Eyed Golden Apes.

Most of them were second-stage demonic beasts, the leader had second-stage peak cultivation, and the rest were mostly second-stage mid-to-late-stage demonic beasts, and there were four first-stage ones.

They occupied a small peach forest, and among them, several were particularly huge.
