Chapter 581: Seeking Dragons and Pointing Holes, Choosing Cave Dwellings

Luo Chen's return, without deliberate concealment, was sensed by the two female cultivators early on.

Looking at the two female cultivators who came out to greet him, but didn't see Zhang Jiadi.

He specifically asked a sentence.

The answer is that he took a mission to escort supplies and went to the front line.

"I remember you just completed a mission not long ago, why did you take a new one? The interval between monster hunter missions doesn't seem to be that fast!"

Zhang Jiadi and the others are just Foundation Establishment cultivators, and their understanding of the Ten Thousand Immortals Society is limited by their realm.

But Luo Chen learned more from Xiao Buhuan, a Jin Dan cultivator, on Qu Yang Island this time.

In the Ten Thousand Immortals Society, the mission interval for Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators is mostly half a year. As for Jin Dan cultivators, it is much longer, generally once every three to five years.

In wartime, this frequency will be higher.

Or, for monster hunters who are keen to improve their star rank, they will take the initiative to take some missions to quickly improve their star rank.

Obviously, it is not wartime now, and Zhang Jiadi doesn't look like someone who is keen on improving his star rank.

Wen Xiu sighed and touched her stomach: "Old Zhang is considering the child."

Luo Chen understood instantly.

Zhang Jiadi wants to finish all the missions for the next few years in one go, so that he can have time to take care of Wen Xiu and her child.

He is indeed a man who values love and righteousness.

Luo Chen nodded, beckoned to Seeing Tianxuan, and went straight back to the room.

After he entered, Seeing Tianxuan followed into the house.

Luo Chen sat down calmly, "How did the matter go?"

Seeing Tianxuan's spirit was lifted, "It's all done. I didn't take a merchant ship, I flew with all my strength, so I saved most of the time, and made a round trip. In recent days, the rumors about the inside story of Cold Light Island have begun to spread in the outer circle of the Ten Thousand Immortals Society, I believe it won't be long before it spreads to Long Yuan City."

"You've worked hard."

Luo Chen praised.

Then, taking advantage of the time, he checked Seeing Tianxuan's state.

In terms of realm, it is much weaker than the peak, but it is just entering the Jin Dan level.

However, the foundation is much more solid.

From this point of view, the injury suffered in the last great battle can indeed be considered a blessing in disguise.

Next, just heal the hidden injuries, not only can the realm be restored quickly, but the subsequent cultivation will also be like a tiger adding wings.

Luo Chen withdrew his spiritual sense with satisfaction.

"The days ahead shouldn't be like running around everywhere before."

"Tomorrow, I am going to the Volant Dragon Mountain Range to understand the situation, you follow me."

Seeing Tianxuan blinked, as if thinking of something.

The master's actions like this obviously mean that he has passed the assessment mission and obtained the status of a Star-Rank Monster Hunter, so he will consider moving into the Volant Dragon Mountain Range.

She will finally have a foothold.

Early the next morning.

Luo Chen took Seeing Tianxuan and hurried out.

Out of the west gate of Long Yuan Xiancheng, two rays of light flew unhurriedly.

In the distance, the mountains are towering.

Under his feet, there is a continuous swamp.

If the origin of the name Volant Dragon Mountain Range is the desolate beast Stone Dragon, then the origin of the name Long Yuan Xiancheng is related to the continuous swamp of thousands of miles under his feet.

Facing the sea, backed by the Long Yuan swamp, it is named Long Yuan.

Luo Chen's spiritual sense swept lightly over some buildings in the swamp, revealing a thoughtful look.

Above, living are some low-level people, mostly Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, and few Jin Dan cultivators.

These people are the real loose cultivators!

They are the kind of loose cultivators who joined the Ten Thousand Immortals Society but did not take the monster hunter qualification.

Because they fear the strict missions of Star-Rank Monster Hunters and cannot afford the huge rental fees for cave dwellings in the Volant Dragon Mountain Range, they chose the Long Yuan swamp with poor spiritual energy as a place for cultivation.

These people are the main components of the Ten Thousand Immortals Society!

The specific number cannot be estimated, at least tens of thousands, and with the righteous and demonic war in full swing, it is still increasing.

"The base is large enough, and the number of Star-Rank Monster Hunters can gradually rise, so that high-level cultivators can harvest more leeks."

Luo Chen muttered, and then without any hesitation, took Seeing Tianxuan into the towering mountains.

On a mountain head.

Seeing Tianxuan stood aside, Luo Chen sat cross-legged beside her, his eyes overlooking the mountain gullies like electricity.

After a while, Luo Chen slowly withdrew his gaze and stood up.

"Change to another place!"

Seeing Tianxuan was puzzled, "Is this not okay either? I saw that the spiritual energy in the vacant cave dwelling is extremely rich."

"Under the flowers, it's just rotten branches and leaves. The so-called rich spiritual energy is just a castle in the air, which can't withstand our cultivation for two years, not my first choice!"

Luo Chen explained lightly, and then flew towards another mountain head.

Seeing Tianxuan pondered Luo Chen's words, understanding but not quite understanding.

Why couldn't she see these doorways?

She didn't know that such means of seeking dragons and pointing holes, and breaking veins, were not something that ordinary people could master.

Luo Chen also relied on years of foundation in array cultivation, plus a pair of eyes that could keenly perceive vitality, to barely achieve this.

Even, the God-Sealing Luo Pan he held in his hand, and the Third-Rank Spirit-Searching and Spirit-Locking Array that was opened all the time, were also a big help.

It was precisely by relying on these means that Luo Chen had the confidence to verify the Third-Rank cave dwellings mentioned by Xiao Buhuan one by one.

But it was a pity.

After spending most of the day, carefully exploring, the harvest was meager.

Or rather, Xiao Buhuan, this Five-Star Monster Hunter, had a level that was not enough, and what he came into contact with were all Third-Rank low-grade or medium-grade cave dwellings.

For him, it might be extremely good.

But for Luo Chen, it didn't meet his needs.

In the next two days, Luo Chen ran to several places that seemed to hide wind and gather energy, and the wind and water trend was extremely good, but finally disappointed.

Standing on a green mountain peak, Luo Chen ignored the curious eyes of other loose cultivators in other directions, and put away the God-Sealing Luo Pan by himself.

"Let's go, let's go back!"

Seeing Tianxuan didn't understand, "Are they all not okay? I just used the method you taught me to detect it, and the spiritual vein under this mountain peak is quite solid, at least at the Third-Rank medium-grade level."

Luo Chen shook his head.

Third-Rank medium-grade is still not his goal.

However, this trip was not in vain.

At least, he verified what Xiao Buhuan said!

The spiritual veins in the Volant Dragon Mountain Range were indeed damaged by humans.

Leading to the fact that although there are several Fourth-Rank spiritual veins, they each respect themselves and form a body.

Leading to the low-level spiritual veins under their command, they are also inconsistent, and it is extremely difficult to judge the real grade.

"It seems that the real good things are still held by the Ten Thousand Immortals Society. If I want a Third-Rank high-grade spiritual vein, I have to start from the Old Fisherman's side."

"Old Fisherman..."

Luo Chen muttered this name, and left the Volant Dragon Mountain Range leisurely under the gaze of loose cultivators.

After he left.

Those loose cultivators began to discuss in low voices.

"The Ten Thousand Immortals Society has another Jin Dan cultivator."

"Actually has a Jin Dan-stage maid follower, I think she must have been very glorious before becoming a loose cultivator."

"What if it was glorious before? Look at him staying in the Volant Dragon Mountain Range for many days, but he has been hesitant to move in, which shows that he is also a person who is shy of money."

"Who isn't? My lease is about to expire, and the spiritual stones are about to bottom out, I'm afraid I have to take another mission."

"Take what mission, it's better to go to the first defense line and hunt monster beasts, which is fast."

"Let's talk about this later, what about you, Daoist? I have been listening to you cursing your cave dwelling, the spiritual energy is intermittent, affecting your cultivation. Don't you plan to change to a better cave dwelling?"

"It's not that easy to change, the better cave dwellings have long been occupied."

"Hehe, when your time is up, go and grab one. Anyway, the rent is paid, and the Ten Thousand Immortals Society won't trouble you."

"This... is it a bit bad!"

"Haha, you are moved!"

The discussion among loose cultivators shifted from the theme of this unknown Jin Dan cultivator to other places.

But no one felt that it was wrong, but talked with interest.

However, when talking about the quality of their own cave dwelling spiritual veins, most of them covered up and said it was poor.

This is afraid of being missed!

In the Monster Hunting Division.

Three cultivators sat in a group, watching the scene in the air together.

The Old Fisherman, while maintaining the Mirage Shadow Bead to trace back the battle scene, introduced: "The identity of this white-clothed cultivator has been verified, it is indeed a Profound Demon Sect remnant. His real name is Yan Zhixian, not Qin Tianming at all."

"However, Yan Zhixian himself does have some talent. Before the Profound Demon Sect had an accident, he was thinking about participating in the next true transmission battle."

"In order to fight for the true transmission, he went out to look for treasures, so he escaped that great disaster."

Speaking of this, he paused.

"This person is not important, except for the resources related to the demonic sect cultivation classics, other things can be taken out for monster hunters to exchange."

"Now, you guys should evaluate the two newly promoted Star-Rank Monster Hunters!"

Beside him, a man and a woman, the man was young, with a huge head, like a big-headed boy. The woman had a graceful figure, even though she looked old, she still had charm, especially the purple clothes wrapping her exquisite body, and the charm of a young woman was full.

The big-headed boy said lazily: "This Duan Li, the realm is solid, but the strength is loose, and the combat experience is not very good. In this mission, he didn't occupy much credit. In my opinion, count him as a failure!"

The purple-clothed woman shook her head, "The Ten Thousand Immortals Society now has many cultivators, but 90% are mobs, and it is exactly the lack of manpower. As you said, Duan Li's realm is solid and has potential. The so-called combat experience can be polished after experiencing more battles in the future. My suggestion is to count his assessment as passed, just set the star rank lower."

Finally, the purple-clothed woman looked at the Old Fisherman.

"Liu Daoist, what do you think?"

The Old Fisherman stroked his beard, "My idea is the same as yours, just give him a Three-Star Monster Hunter star rank!"

Two against one, the minority obeys the majority.

The big-headed boy curled his lips, but didn't argue.

Next, it was Luo Chen's turn.

It is certain that he obtained the Four-Star Monster Hunter qualification, so naturally there is no need to talk much.

What they are discussing is the means Luo Chen revealed in this battle.

"This Qingyangzi's spells are exquisite, that handprint spell, even from my Jin Dan Ninth-Layer realm, is quite good. Especially, his magic power is domineering, and it is not inferior to the magic power cultivated by the true transmission of the Profound Demon Sect's soul-refining lineage, and even more so. Among loose cultivators, it is rare to have such a foundation." The purple-clothed woman praised repeatedly.

The Old Fisherman also nodded in appreciation, he personally watched that battle.

For the several fire-type spells Luo Chen cast, he also praised them, especially the domineering magic power, which even the Ten-Direction Shadowless Array could not block for a moment.

At least, his magic power when he was in the Jin Dan middle-stage did not reach this level.

The purple-clothed woman continued to watch the image, but as she watched, her eyebrows frowned.

"This person is hiding a bit deep! That giant hammer magic treasure, the control is raw, it is clearly not a natal magic treasure. That Ten Thousand Soul Banner, it seems it is not his life-bound thing either. But this chain..."

The Old Fisherman took the conversation, "It is not a real object, just a derivation of magic power. But I looked at it carefully, it doesn't look like a spell, perhaps it is the derivative means of his natal magic treasure."

Is it just the means derived from the natal magic treasure that has such power?

Breaking resentment ghosts like breaking paper, blocking the flying sword of sneak attack without a hair's breadth, and even at the last moment, locking the strange ghost king that was fused and comparable to the Jin Dan late-stage, unable to move.

The purple-clothed woman blinked, becoming more and more curious about what Luo Chen's natal magic treasure was.

She turned her head, "Bi Gan, why don't you speak?"

The big-headed boy frowned, as if thinking about something.

Hearing the inquiry from his companion at this moment, he said hesitantly: "Qingyangzi... this Daoist name, I seem to have heard it somewhere?"

The Old Fisherman laughed, "With such ability, even if it is a loose cultivator, it is definitely not a nameless person, maybe you really heard his deeds in some year, some month, some day."

"Not a long time ago!" The big-headed boy said decisively.

After pondering for a while, he suddenly spoke.

"I remember, no wonder I feel this person is a bit familiar. A few days ago, I was gathering with people in Shenyuan City, and heard them chatting about the Nascent Soul battle on Cold Light Island. One of the battles between Jin Dan cultivators involved a loose cultivator named Qingyang Demon Lord."

"Qingyang Demon Lord?"

"Who is this again?"

The Old Fisherman and the purple-clothed woman exclaimed in surprise.

Immediately, the big-headed boy shared the rumors he heard with the two.

After learning the details, especially the Qingyang Demon Lord using his signature means, Qingyang Handprint, to kill several people of the same level, they were amazed.

"It seems that this Qingyangzi and that Qingyang Demon Lord might really be the same person."

"However, even if it is the same person, it has little to do with us. This assessment ends here, as for the follow-up... since it is supervised by you, Old Fisherman, you handle it."

The Old Fisherman had no objection, it was just some trivial matters anyway.

Now in the Monster Hunting Division, there are only three of them, Eight-Star Monster Hunters, and they usually take turns to handle trivial matters.

Now it is his turn to rotate, so naturally he cannot refuse.

Three days, passed in a flash.

Early this morning, in the Volant Dragon Mountain Range, Luo Chen arrived at the gate of the Monster Hunting Division early.

Unexpectedly, Duan Li came earlier than him.

Seeing the shrinking appearance of the other party wrapped in a big coat, Luo Chen frowned, but didn't say much.

After a simple greeting, he went straight in.

Duan Li followed behind, looking at Luo Chen's back, with a look of wanting to speak but stopping.

"In the battle, Qingyangzi was not affected by the white-clothed man's means at all, and even the soul shock of the strange ghost king was just like a breeze blowing on his face."

"I think he also has extraordinary attainments in soul refining."

"I just don't know if he can solve the residual poison on me."

"But if I ask the other party to help heal, I must be unreserved, people's hearts are separated by belly, and I have a deep hatred, I can't bet!"

Duan Li was full of thoughts, hesitant.

When he woke up, he saw the Old Fisherman chatting with Luo Chen in a friendly manner.

"This is the identity waist token, with golden stars on it. Our Ten Thousand Immortals Society monster hunters are divided into nine stars, one to three are white, four to six are gold, and seven to nine are purple. Different colors represent different treatments you can enjoy."

"In addition to the discount offers you know from the outside world, you can also rely on different star ranks to enjoy the information resources of the Monster Hunting Division."

"If you are interested, you can learn more about it later."

The Ten Thousand Immortals Society has many loose cultivators, which naturally means that the sources of information are extensive.

This is an unexpected joy.

Luo Chen took his identity waist token, looked down, the blood sea was deep, the bright moon was in the sky, and four golden stars surrounded the bright moon.

Duan Li was a bit lonely.

On his identity waist token, there were only three white stars.

You know, many Foundation Establishment cultivators can reach this star rank.

The Old Fisherman patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be discouraged, this is just for a while. If you want to improve your star rank, just take more missions."

Duan Li smiled bitterly, the injury on his body has not been solved yet, how can he think about those things.

The old man couldn't care about what he was thinking, and waved his sleeves.

"Let's go!"

"It's rare that I have time today, so I will personally take you to the Volant Dragon Mountain Range to choose a suitable cave dwelling."

Speaking of this, he looked at the two with a smile that was not a smile.

"Spiritual stones, should be prepared, right!"

Luo Chen said calmly: "Old Fisherman, just lead the way, a few spiritual stones, I can still take them out."

This time, Duan Li didn't show cowardice and followed the two. 【581-173

Above the Fulong Mountain Range.

Three streaks of light, like shadows following a form, crisscrossed back and forth.

The Old Angler held a map with flickering spiritual light, introducing relevant information while leading them to inspect the cave dwellings.

However, it was quite obvious that the information he introduced was somewhat hidden.

To choose a suitable cave dwelling, one still had to rely on one's own ability.

"This high mountain is named Xiushan. The spiritual energy is incomparably dense. Even among third-rank low-grade cave dwellings, it is a standout. Many Core Formation cultivators have resided here before; you may consider it."

After hearing the introduction, Duan Li looked quite moved.

He had a mind to take it, but with Luo Chen in front, he still intended to wait until the other party had made their choice.

Luo Chen shook his head, "Fellow Daoist, please feel free; no need to wait for me."

He paused, then suddenly said: "However, if this place were truly that good, I imagine it wouldn't have changed so many owners."

Duan Li was stunned.

It seemed that made sense?

The Old Angler frowned; this Qingyangzi was quite a sharp one, spotting the loophole in his words at once.

"Since neither of you wants it, let's change to the next place! But I will say this first: although there are many ownerless cave dwellings left in the Fulong Mountain Range, most are first or second rank; there aren't many third-rank ones left."

"Once you miss this village, you won't find this shop."

Luo Chen twitched the corner of his mouth, not saying anything more.

In his heart, however, he sneered.

Logically, this Old Angler was also working for the Three Great Loose Immortals; why was he so concerned about gains and losses?

Letting these loose cultivators take a little advantage and suffer a little less loss, what would it matter!

He really had worked so long that he had projected himself into the role.

While shaking his head inwardly, Luo Chen's spiritual sense continuously radiated, scanning one by one along the light points still shining on the map in the Old Angler's hand.

Among these, there should be one or two cave dwellings suitable for him.
