When Kong Ju walked into Feng An's elegant courtyard, he saw Feng An lying leisurely in his rocking chair, listening to the sound of spring water brought down from the mountains, eating peanuts and drinking wine, looking very comfortable.
Kong Qi was so envious of what he saw.
“This is literally my dream life.”
Kong Ju muttered to himself and decided that after he was promoted to the rank of master, he would live this kind of salted fish life.
After thinking about it, Kong Ju coughed twice to indicate his arrival.
Hearing the sound, Feng An stood up from the rocking chair and looked towards the source of the sound with an alert look on his face.
The person who was able to get so close to me without me noticing must be stronger than me.
It was not until he saw Kong Ju's smiling face that Feng An's expression became slightly dull, and then was filled with unconcealable joy.
"Junior Brother Kong, have you finished your retreat?"
"How do you know I was in seclusion?" Kong Ju was also polite. While responding to Feng An, he walked to his side, picked up the wine on the table and filled his own bowl.
"Hehe, there's nothing I don't know about the outer sect of the Cangwu Sect." Feng An smiled, looking very complacent.
Kong Ju was deeply impressed by Feng An's keen sense of intelligence, but he was not surprised. However, when he looked at the former, his eyes were somewhat meaningful.
"Senior Brother Feng has reached the peak of the Seventh Realm. His cultivation speed is quite good."
"Thanks to Junior Brother Kong's high-quality Qi-nourishing Pill, Qi-nourishing Pills of that quality are hard to find in Baicaotang." When Feng An mentioned his own realm, he couldn't stop smiling.
He was not bad in talent to begin with, it was just that he was delayed for nearly twenty years.
After recovery, with the help of Qi-nourishing Pills, his cultivation level naturally improved to almost the same level.
Of course, there is also the reason that the essence of human character and heaven and earth gathers the evil spirit of corpses.
After absorbing it, Feng An improved his cultivation a lot.
According to Kong Qi's judgment, with Feng An's current strength, it would be no problem for him to be ranked among the first echelon of the outer sect.
After all, Feng An is a physical cultivator, and he has the Yin Corpse Qi that is extremely suitable for physical cultivation. His overall strength is extremely strong. I am afraid that many of the first-tier cultivators who have reached the eighth level of Yanglun are no match for him.
"Senior Brother Feng is not bad in talent, and it's not all due to the Qi-nourishing Pill." Kong Ju understood the situation, but he didn't dare to take credit for it. He waved his hand and asked, "Have you got any interesting information recently?"
When this question was raised, Feng An had a strange look on his face. He looked at Kong Ju and said quietly, "Is there any information more exciting than you killing Po Yue Jian?"
At this point, Feng An could no longer control his gossipy nature.
As a qualified intelligence collector, what could be more exciting to him than to interview people who had personally experienced a major event in person.
"Junior brother Kong Ju, you are really good. You have become famous."
"Tell me quickly, how did you kill Lu Wenji? He is the immortal seedling of Dingyue Sect and the number one swordsman in Wudong."
…
Hearing Feng An's rapid-fire questions, Kong Ju immediately became perked up.
The battle was described vividly with great exaggeration.
Feng An was stunned when he heard this.
"Then I raised my knife and chopped off Lu Wenji's dog head." Kong Ju took a big gulp of wine with a heroic attitude.
"I clearly heard that Lu Wenji was killed by an ice-based Taoist magic." Feng An reminded Kong Ju awkwardly.
"Oh, really? I remembered it wrongly." Kong Ju scratched his head with a mischievous smile in his eyes.
If he hadn't said this, Feng An would have kept asking questions.
Sure enough, after being tricked by Kong Ju, Feng An immediately lost interest in asking more questions.
However, the surprise on his face did not fade away, and he said with emotion: "Junior Brother Kong, you are now ranked 20th on the Hidden Dragon List. You have made a leap into the Dragon Gate."
"Many disciples from various sects want to challenge you. After hearing the news of your return in the past half month, many have come to challenge you."
"I'm not interested in dealing with them." Kong Ju threw a peanut into his mouth.
The answer was not too surprising to Feng An. After all, Kong Ju hated trouble the most.
"Oh, right!" Feng An took a sip of wine, and suddenly thought of something, and added: "Junior Brother Shangguan is back too, and is recuperating in the Alchemy Pavilion. Elder Zhou Shangxiang is personally treating him."
"Senior Brother Shangguan is injured? Who hurt him?" Kong Ju frowned.
"Yuan Xiao!" Feng An said softly, and secretly glanced at Kong Ju while speaking. There was an obvious dangerous light flashing in the latter's eyes.
Feng An immediately explained with a wry smile: "This is really not Yuan Xiao's fault. Junior Brother Shangguan went to the mountain gate and blocked Yuan Xiao for a month. The two fought back and forth but no one was the winner."
"Finally, Yuan Xiao suddenly broke through the ninth realm and used the Azure Dragon's evil and his physical strength to severely injure Junior Brother Shangguan. It was Deputy Hall Master He Xijin who personally carried him back."
"Has Yuan Xiao finally reached the ninth realm?" Kong Ju raised his eyebrows immediately after hearing the important information revealed in Feng An's words.
However, considering Yuan Xiaocui's identity as a Jinmen Immortal Seedling, it is not surprising that he can have such a fast speed.
However, Yuan Xiao’s current strength, compared to when he fought with himself, not only has his realm improved, but he has also realized the physical cultivation power.
The Gang Jin thing is very difficult to deal with.
Kong Ju had seen Han Honghua exerting her inner strength.
The blood is boiling, the body temperature is comparable to that of a furnace, and he can fight and resist.
Especially since Yuan Xiao also has the Azure Dragon's evil spirit, with the two combined, it would be no problem for him to enter the 20th place on the Hidden Dragon List.
"No wonder Senior Brother Shangguan lost to him." Kong Ju sighed slightly.
"Next time we meet, he will be another difficult person."
Then Kong Ju thought again: "Well...what does it have to do with me?"
However, since Shangguan Yuzhou is back and injured, he should go to the Alchemy Pavilion to visit him.
"I don't know if Elder Zhou Shangxiang will allow me to visit. After all, the last time I was injured, the sect wouldn't let anyone get close to me." Kong Ju thought.
In addition to the news about Shangguan Yuzhou, Feng An also mentioned a lot of information about what happened in the Cangwu sect during the time when Kong Ju was away from the Cangwu sect.
Their junior sister Zhou Tingyu, under the encouragement of Elder Zhou Shangxiang, has practiced hard in seclusion in the past two years and finally reached the sixth level of Yanglun and entered the second echelon.
In addition, the sect discovered a mineral vein in Beiling County that produced the essence of blooming silver, and sent some disciples to garrison there.
The Cangwu sect finally had a place where it could continuously produce the essence of the characters of the top 20 people.
For a sect, the inheritance of martial arts is certainly important.
The spiritual land that continuously produces the essence of heaven and earth is also an important foundation.
There are not many spiritual places in the Cangwu sect that can continuously produce the essence of heaven and earth. There are only three places, and the quality of none of them can reach the quality of the Essence of Blooming Silver.
When talking about this topic, Kong Ju discovered that Feng An looked at him with a half-smile in his eyes. He had probably guessed long ago that the soul-retaining place was provided to the sect by him.
After all, he and Shangguan Yuzhou had once used the Essence of Blooming Silver to make a deal in the outer sect, and Shangguan Yuzhou himself had also absorbed the Essence of Blooming Silver.
But Feng An was a smart man, and if Kong Ju didn't say anything, he wouldn't ask.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
As the two chatted, Kong Ju suddenly changed the subject: "I wonder how much information about Qinghu Blessed Land, Senior Brother Feng, do you know?"
In another four or five months, Qinghu blessed land will be opened.
When Huangfu Ying left the sect, he specifically asked him to come back before the Qinghu Blessed Land opened. It was obvious that he wanted to let him enter the Qinghu Blessed Land.
Kong Ju naturally wanted to ask more about the information about Qinghu blessed land.
Feng An was not too surprised by Kong Ju's question. Instead, he said with emotion, "Yes, with Junior Brother Kong's current reputation, the sect will definitely send you to Qinghu Blessed Land."
As he spoke, Feng An reached out to wipe the wine stains from the corners of his mouth, paused for a moment, pondered, and after organizing his thoughts, he slowly told the information about Qinghu Blessed Land: "Let me first tell you what everyone knows. Qinghu Blessed Land is considered the last blessed land in Wudong. It is rich in rare second-grade spiritual medicines such as Xingmang Huairou Grass, and Xingmang Huairou Grass is the main ingredient for refining Shenglun Pills. It can be said that the amount of Xingmang Huairou Grass determines the amount of Shenglun Pills a sect can obtain."
"It also indirectly affects the number of powerful people born in a sect."
There are risks in breaking through to the Ascension Wheel, and the Ascension Wheel Pill can increase the success rate of breaking through to the Ascension Wheel.
Feng An said that if the number of Shenglun Pills indirectly affects the number of Shenglun masters born in a sect, it makes sense in Kong Ju's opinion.
He nodded slightly and continued listening.
"The Star Mang Huairou Grass matures every five years, so the Qinghu Blessed Land opens every five years. Every time it opens, countless sects in Wudong will flock to it."
"Because there is a dragon corpse floating in the Green Lake, it contains the dragon's evil spirit. This evil spirit that permeates the essence of heaven and earth has a great impact on cultivators. It corrodes the cultivator's body almost all the time. The higher the cultivation level, the greater the impact."
“So almost no applause powerhouse is willing to stay in there for long.”
"This also means that every time the Qinghu blessed land is opened, there will be almost no powerful people entering it."
"So every time a cultivator enters Qinghu blessed land, his cultivation level will not exceed that of Zhangsheng."
At this point, Feng An glanced at Kong Ju and smiled: "Everyone knows this."
"Let me tell you some secret information that few people know. This is the information I have summarized over the past twenty years based on the scattered information I have heard from the monks who have entered the Qinghu blessed land."
At this point, Feng An lowered his voice and continued in a slow tone: "The Qinghu blessed land was opened to obtain the yield of Xingmai Huairou grass. This is understandable."
"But there is a deeper reason, and that is the evil of the dragon."
"The corpse of the dragon floating in the Green Lake will give birth to a few strands of dragon evil every once in a while. While the disciples of the major sects are collecting the Star Mang Huairou Grass, they will also fight for the dragon evil."
"The dragon evil of Yuan Xiao from the Tempering Gold Sect is the condensation of the dragon evil that the Tempering Gold Sect has collected over the past few hundred years."
"Not only the Cuijin Sect, but also the Dingyue Sect, our Cangwu Sect, the Mosheng Sect, the Yaowang Valley, and other sects all have stocks of the Jiaolong Evil."
“Almost all of them come from Qinghu blessed land.”
"In addition, the Qinghu blessed land is full of spiritual energy, and it can also breed extremely precious spiritual medicines and other spiritual objects, which are also one of the things that the major sects are fighting for."
"Hearing what Senior Brother Feng said, once the Qinghu Blessed Land is opened, won't all the prominent sects and cultivators in Wudong come to get a piece of the pie?" Kong Ju took a sip of wine with emotion, deeply feeling that the Qinghu Blessed Land was fraught with dangers this time.
The dangerous thing about Xihuang blessed land is the strange things inside, while the dangerous thing about Qinghu blessed land is the cultivators.
"Yes, otherwise why is it called the Qinghu Festival?" Feng An nodded in agreement.
"The number of monks who die in Qinghu blessed land every year is not small."
"Even though Junior Brother Kong is extremely talented, you still have to be careful."
"Don't worry, I know everything." Kong Ju smiled.
Having said that, he was still a little unsure. After all, this time, a powerful person with ascension skills had entered the Qinghu blessed land.
With my strength, I can be a big shot in the Yanglun realm, but I will still have to frown when I meet a Shenglun realm.
"There are still four or five months left. I must raise my cultivation to the ninth realm. If I encounter a strong person who has reached the Ascension Wheel, even if I cannot defeat him, I will still have the strength to fight him."
After Feng An finished talking about the intelligence, he took out a storage bag, which contained the spirit crystals he earned from selling the magic tools and other things he had pulled off the corpses of the monks who were controlled by the Soul-Soothing Bell at the burial place of Xianyu Yanhe last time.
There were about two thousand spirit crystals in total, but Feng An refused to take any and insisted on giving them all to Kong Ju.
"I got a portion of the Gathering Yin Corpse Qi, so how dare I ask for these spirit crystals?"
Kong Ju was stubborn and had no choice but to accept it.
As a result, the value of Kong Ju's spirit crystals jumped to 17,000.
"Even though this is a lot of money, it will only be enough to sustain me for two to three years if I spend it on alchemy." Kong Ju deeply understood how horrible the cost of alchemy was.
But he didn't have any elixirs that needed to be refined urgently at the moment, and his longbow was destroyed in the battle with Lingxi.
Kong Ju was going to take the spirit crystal to the weapon refining pavilion to buy a longbow.
"Let's go, Senior Brother Feng. Let's go see Senior Brother Shangguan. Come with me to the Weapon Refining Pavilion to buy a handy magic weapon."
Patting his waist bag, Kong Ju called Feng An.
The latter is at least a master in refining equipment, so when buying magic weapons, he must be called.
