Chapter 341: Weak Tier 3 Spiritual Land, Eight Times the Cultivation Speed!

~16 min read 3,105 words

"Daoist, walk slowly!"

"Master Danchenzi, if you have time, you can come to my Qingcang Mountain for a sit; although there is no immortal tea, a cup of thin wine is always enough."

"Definitely, definitely, I also want to see how the outer sect of a major sect operates."

Outside the Ink Lotus Garden.

Two Daoists bowed and said goodbye.

Luo Chen looked smilingly at the Foundation Establishment True Cultivator who was walking away; the other party actually had the powerful cultivation base of the late Foundation Establishment stage.

This person was Helian Cheng, an Elder of the Qingcang Mountain Lower Academy.

The Lower Academy of Qingcang Mountain is the outer sect of Qingdan Valley.

The other party coming here was naturally not an unprovoked visit.

After returning to the Ink Lotus Garden, Luo Chen sat in the pavilion and took out the things brought by Helian Cheng.

A flying sword at the magic treasure level.

Its name is Autumn Water!

Although it was low-grade, after Luo Chen injected spiritual power, the blue luster showed that the Autumn Water sword was quite extraordinary.

Attached to it was a Tier 3 spell—Violent Wave and Raging Billows.

As long as a large amount of spiritual power is injected and combined with the corresponding spiritual formula, one can strike one attack after another.

This is the real magic treasure!

Unlike Luo Chen's Profound Fire Sword, which has no attached spells at all.

It's also Huo Hu's stinginess; he wanted to support the facade of the Huo family auction but couldn't bear to bring out good things.

It just so happened that at the time, Wang Haichao really paid for Huo Hu.

Luo Chen waved the Autumn Water sword a few times casually, showing a look of satisfaction.

This was the acquisition information he left on the jade wall of the Gaoyang Building in the market.

Exchanged with that nine-ring tin staff of Weituo.

Barter.

There was some price difference, the nine-ring tin staff was not that valuable.

But Helian Cheng directly smoothed out this price difference.

The reason?

Simply put, make a friend!

The noble status of a powerful alchemist also gradually reflected its influence.

The active solicitation of Core Formation True Persons, the fawning and befriending of cultivators of the same rank, only Luo Chen himself knows the taste of it.

"Hui Niang has always been missing a magic treasure-level sword."

"This Autumn Water sword has a clear and elegant appearance, and its power is quite extraordinary; it is very suitable for her."

"Consider it a gift for a long journey!"

Luo Chen smiled slightly and put the flying sword into the storage bag.

Just as he wanted to return to the room to read, Tao Yisheng walked in hurriedly with a happy face.

"Yisheng, what good thing is it, to be so happy?"

From afar, Tao Yisheng shouted:

"Brother Luo, tomorrow our sect is going to hold a Dao Seed ceremony for my sister, and I am here specifically to notify you. When the time comes, you must go to observe the ceremony!"

Luo Chen was stunned.

Is it that fast?

Fast, naturally it is fast.

Because not much time has passed since the last Dao Seed ceremony.

The corresponding procedures, Qingdan Valley cultivators are still familiar with.

The things needed are also easy to assemble.

Plus, with Tao Wan's Master, True Person Bai Su, pushing from behind, the ceremony naturally proceeded quickly.

Once the ceremony is completed, as long as Tao Wan doesn't make any major mistakes, she can steadily cultivate to the Core Formation stage.

In the future, she can even take charge of the sect's gateway!

In Qingyun Peak.

Luo Chen looked up at the woman kneeling respectfully before the ancestor's spirit tablet, his heart filled with emotion.

The former True Disciple Tao, the current Daoist Tao, the future Sect Master Tao.

Step by step, this woman walked into the upper echelons of the Yuding Domain.

In the future, she will be a big shot like Qing Yunzi and the Hundred Flower Palace Master!

I wonder when he will reach that point?

While he was daydreaming.

All kinds of rules and procedures passed by like water.

Thousands of Foundation Establishment cultivators were silent, looking at the woman with emotions such as envy, admiration, and disgust.

When the final ancestor worship was completed.

An ethereal voice came from above.

"The life soul enters the lamp, the Dao Seed is chosen... From today on, Tao Wan is the contemporary Daoist of Qingdan Valley. Inherit the Great Dao, carry on the past and open up the future, the future of Qingdan Valley will prosper because of you!"

Under the gaze of all.

Tao Wan stood up slowly from before the ancestor's spirit tablet.

Wearing a black crown and a purple-haired cape, three thousand strands of green silk were tied behind her.

Wearing a green brocade embroidered skirt, with gilded lace, embroidered with many complex patterns, elegant yet simple and generous.

Stepping on cloud-woven white boots, it seemed as if white clouds were growing.

Qing Yunzi stepped back slowly, letting her walk to the front.

Looking down at everyone outside the hall.

There were Danyangzi, Du Changfeng, Shangguan Yan, and others who had competed with her.

There were also a group of fellow disciples like Fu Li, Qi Lingyun, and Tan Xiao who had stood on her side from the beginning.

And many junior disciples, whether familiar or unfamiliar.

The changes in everyone's expressions were all taken into her eyes.

This is her future team!

How to completely master this team depends on her methods.

But at least, she now has the name in terms of righteousness.

Further away, a group of Tao family cultivators were also watching the ceremony happily.

In the crowd, Luo Chen's figure was outstanding.

They all came!

Tao Wan's mouth raised slightly, and her rosy face was filled with a smile.

She slowly raised her hand.

In the originally silent mountain, a sound like a mountain tsunami instantly erupted.

"Junior Brother greets the Daoist!"

"Junior Sister greets the Daoist!"

In the crowd, Luo Chen bowed from afar, and his mouth also shouted lightly.

"Luo Chen greets Daoist Tao!"

Deep in the white clouds, on a bluestone path.

Two figures walked slowly, and wherever they passed, the mountain wind blew lightly, and the clouds and mist retreated automatically.

On Luo Chen's face, there was a look of doubt.

A full three days have passed since Tao Wan inherited the position of Qingdan Dao Seed.

For these three days, she avoided talking about the top-grade Ascension Dragon Elixir, just letting him wait.

This wait was three days.

Until today, Tao Wan invited him to Qingyun Mountain.

"Daoist, what do you think of this mountain?"

"The mountain is majestic, the scenery is beautiful, and the spiritual energy is abundant; it is truly a holy land for immortals!"

Luo Chen replied, without any flattery, just speaking the truth.

Qingyun Peak is indeed a rare and good place for cultivation.

Containing a Tier 3 spiritual vein, under the many years of operation of Qingdan Valley, the cultivation environment is even better than Tianlan Peak, which is also a Tier 3 spiritual vein.

Tao Wan smiled, "Qingyun Peak can be a place for cultivation, but it cannot be called a holy land. In the vast Eastern Wasteland cultivation world, only the Mingyuan Sect, which has produced an Alchemy Saint, can be called a holy land; the other sects are just so-so."

Luo Chen raised his brows.

"How so?"

Next, in Tao Wan's explanation, Luo Chen learned why she would say so.

Cultivators have realm divisions, spirit beasts have levels, and even elixirs and magic treasures have grades.

Naturally, within sects that pay attention to rituals, there are corresponding standards.

For example, this, the so-called sect designation.

Ordinary loose cultivator forces, if there is no Foundation Establishment True Cultivator sitting in town, are unranked.

If there are one or two Foundation Establishment True Cultivators inside, they can be a third-rate force, such as the Poshan Gang, Dajiang Gang, and the like.

If there are a large number of Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, they can be second-rate, such as the Danxia Luo Tian Society.

Of course, even with a late-stage Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator sitting in town, it is only a leader among second-rate forces.

If you want a major sect to look up, you must give birth to a Core Formation cultivator, or hire a Core Formation guest to reside there.

At this time, it is barely first-rate.

Above these three levels, are the so-called major sects.

Any Core Formation major sect must have at least three Core Formation True Persons!

And once a Nascent Soul cultivator appears, the major sect can be promoted to a Supreme Sect!

Above the Supreme Sect, is the holy land in Tao Wan's mouth.

A Holy Land is where ten thousand immortals pay homage and all domains offer tribute; it can act as a deity for a region, where words become law and all must obey!

Such great power naturally has its foundation.

Nothing else, in the cultivation holy land, there must be a Soul Transformation Great Ability sitting in town!

Perhaps, some people will feel that the classification of cultivation sects is too secular.

It doesn't fit the style of cultivators who are immortal and drink dew.

But in reality, under this secular classification, it represents corresponding rights and obligations.

Only a major sect can open a mountain and build a gate, inherit the Dao lineage, and not be subject to others!

Only a Supreme Sect can exclusively control one domain, collect the essence of one domain, and support Nascent Soul True Persons!

Only a holy land can establish the luck of the human race, launch pioneering wars at any time, open up territory for human cultivators, and strive for more cultivation resources!

Under these three, even if they are ranked, they are only subject to others and look up to others.

Back on Danxia Peak, when Luo Chen held a Foundation Establishment ceremony for Sima Hui Niang, Dantai Jin mentioned that some rituals were overstepping.

At that time, Luo Chen didn't take it to heart.

Now it seems that there were indeed some places that overstepped the rules.

Those rituals cannot be used indiscriminately.

Otherwise, it is overstepping.

If a major sect really wants to pursue it, they can make a mountain out of a molehill and give the Luo Tian Society a big embarrassment.

"Although Qingdan Valley is strong, it is only a drop in the ocean of the Eastern Wasteland. Even in this small Yuding Domain, there are two big mountains on top."

"Although I luckily achieved the Daoist position, in the vast cultivation world, it really doesn't count for much."

Tao Wan sighed, her eyes filled with emotion.

Luo Chen wanted to say, "Daoist, you are belittling yourself."

But the words reached his lips, and he couldn't say them.

Three days ago, he was still fantasizing about when he would reach Tao Wan's height.

Now it seems that his vision was truly narrow.

Above Core Formation, there is still Nascent Soul.

After the major sect and Supreme Sect, there is a holy land suppressing the Eastern Wasteland.

"I've gone too far."

Tao Wan smiled suddenly, and her footsteps stopped.

She moved forward, waving her big sleeves.

"Here we are, welcome Daoist Luo Chen to be a guest at my cave dwelling!"

Luo Chen was surprised and looked forward.

After the clouds and mist retreated, a magnificent palace appeared.

At Tao Wan's invitation, Luo Chen stepped into this hall.

The moment he entered the hall, Luo Chen's expression changed.

"This spiritual energy concentration..."

"Not bad, right!" Tao Wan smiled slightly, as if showing off, and as if introducing to a guest: "As a Core Formation Dao Seed, the Daoist of Qingdan Valley, the residence arranged by the sect is naturally the best cultivation environment."

"Although limited by the cultivation realm, I cannot directly enjoy the Tier 3 spiritual land. But under the arrangement of the Core Formation seniors of our sect, the spiritual energy here is maintained at a weak Tier 3 concentration, which can barely support our cultivation."

"If a Foundation Establishment cultivator cultivates here for a long time, the speed will be seven or eight times more than an ordinary top-grade cave dwelling!"

Seven or eight times!

Luo Chen was shocked.

Even with his cultivation of Qi, at this moment, a look of longing appeared in his eyes.

Tao Wan was observing the changes in his expression all the time.

At this moment, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

"Daoist was invited to Qingdan Valley to help me, and for this half a year, you haven't stepped out of the house, and haven't properly appreciated the beautiful scenery of our sect. If it gets out, others will say that I, the Qingdan Daoist, don't know the way of hospitality."

"Why not stay here for a while, consider it Wanwan doing her best as a host!"

Luo Chen swallowed, and said with a dry voice: "This is not very good... is it!"

"What's not good?" Tao Wan pointed to the empty main hall and the two side halls: "If it weren't for your full help, this place wouldn't belong to me. The Senior Brother's ability is not something I..."

Speaking of Danyangzi.

Tao Wan became interested.

"Speaking of which, after I became the Daoist, I learned some news."

"The Senior Brother has made quite a few mistakes over the past few decades."

Luo Chen was curious: "Oh? For no reason, he made many mistakes?"

Tao Wan pursed her rosy lips and nodded: "Indeed. There are some things I find inconvenient to say, but one of the important reasons why the Five Peaks True Persons decided to strip him of his Dao Seed position was that he leaked our sect's core secret technique to his own younger brother. Even, because his younger brother was killed, that core secret technique was leaked."

"Although it was only a part, not very important, this is definitely not what a Daoist should do."

Luo Chen's curiosity was completely hooked.

What kind of secret technique could become the weight that crushed Danyangzi?

"It's hard to say specifically, but it's a precursor technique related to a Core Formation secret technique that only a Daoist can use. After I handle the matters in the sect, I also have to go out and check, and try to find that technique back as much as possible," Tao Wan said.

A precursor technique to a Core Formation secret technique that only a Daoist can use?

Luo Chen shook his head, "That probably won't be easy to find back! A technique like this, others can learn and use once they see it, how can it be found back?"

Tao Wan waved her hand.

"It's not difficult; if it falls into the hands of a major sect, it can be exchanged with corresponding conditions, or negotiated for the other party to make compensation, anyway, it's just a precursor technique."

"If it falls into the hands of a loose cultivator, it's even easier to handle, just kill them."

She said it plainly.

But in the plainness, there was a disregard for the lives of loose cultivators.

It's just that Luo Chen doesn't count as a loose cultivator much anymore.

Although he hasn't joined any sect, he is at least an appendage of the Ice Fortress and a guest of the Heartless Fairy.

Otherwise, Luo Chen feared he would have shivered.

Perhaps, this is the normal style of acting for a high disciple of a sect!

Luo Chen thought so.

With this digression, the previous invitation to stay as a guest was not so abrupt.

"Have you considered it, Daoist?"

Luo Chen smiled happily.

"Since you have invited me so warmly, how can I refuse? Besides, I do indeed envy this kind of cultivation environment."

"In that case, I will follow the host's convenience!"

Tao Wan also showed a knowing smile.

She knew that Luo Chen would not accept small favors.

But when it comes to cultivation, the other party always has things he cannot refuse.

For example, this weak Tier 3 cultivation place!

Moreover, she also considered herself to have completed the task of the sect elders, temporarily keeping Luo Chen.

In the Daoist Hall.

Luo Chen lived alone in a side hall.

Pacing inside, full of joy!

This kind of cultivation environment filled with a large amount of spiritual energy is truly the existence that he, born as a loose cultivator, dreamed of!

Just breathing between breaths, he felt his Qi sea churning, and he couldn't help but want to sit on the ground and focus on cultivation.

"Having received such a great favor from Tao Wan, I fear that in the future, I will have to completely solidify the name of the Tao family's guest!"

Luo Chen muttered.

But he didn't feel much pressure.

The Tao family today is on the rise.

After Tao Wan forms her Core Formation, it is not impossible to reproduce the grand occasion of True Person Nanshan two hundred years ago.

Under this prerequisite, he, a mere Foundation Establishment guest, doesn't need to exert much effort.

Tao Wan showing favor like this, besides winning him over, should also have some other reasons.

Such as repaying his full effort in the second round, regardless of the resentment of the Qingdan disciples.

Or perhaps his relationship with the Heartless Fairy is not shallow.

The other party befriending him can be considered returning the favor.

Back on the Sword Fighting Platform, the Ice Soul Cold Marrow Tao Wan used at the last moment was not some common treasure.

That is a third-tier treasure that only a Core Formation Master of the Ice Fortress can possess!

If it were not bestowed by the Heartless Fairy, even a core disciple of a great sect would find it hard to obtain even a fraction.

"Now that I have received this benefit, I might as well accept it."

"However, I cannot slack off; I must fully absorb it all!"

He took a deep breath.

Luo Chen did not delay any longer and immediately entered the cultivation room specially arranged in the side hall.

He lit a stick of Spirit-Burning Incense.

Then, Luo Chen sat cross-legged.

He began to circulate the master-level "Everlasting Evergreen Scripture" with extreme proficiency.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth drifting outside surged into his body like a tide.

Finally, through repeated cycles of the technique, it was refined into spiritual power and entered his vast dantian.
