Chapter 143 Recruiting Jiuxiao and Going into the Water to Find the Dragon
"Of course I know, because I have already cultivated the Wood Spiritual Vein, and the Fire Spiritual Vein is almost complete!"
Lu Feng smiled calmly, and the spiritual realm in his body completely unfolded in front of Jiuxiao.
The energy-absorbing ancient tree saplings rise up to support the sky, a fire dragon holds the sun and patrols the sky, there is also a spirit turtle carrying a mountain and lurking in the ground, and a hundred beasts live in the wild scene.
When Jiuxiao saw this scene, he was immediately shocked.
When they were discussing, observing and exchanging principles before, Lu Feng was still restrained.
Only a part of Qingmu Spiritual Realm's power was shown to Jiuxiao, less than two or three tenths.
But at this moment, in order to completely subdue Jiuxiao, Lu Feng tried his best.
"A human-level mid-grade wood spirit vein, a fire spirit vein with a strong foundation that is about to take shape, and an earth spirit vein that is in the process of cultivation."
Jiuxiao's eyes were filled with emerald green light as he looked towards Lu Feng's spiritual realm, trying to see through Qingmu's spiritual realm.
However, under the brilliant light of Qingmu Spiritual Realm, his eyes were stung and felt as if they were being pricked by needles. Jiuxiao immediately turned his head away and dared not look directly at Lu Feng's Qingmu Spiritual Realm.
Taking the opportunity of turning his head, Jiuxiao wiped away the tears stimulated by the spiritual light of the spiritual realm. He was deeply aware of the gap between himself and Senior Lu Feng.
Not to mention the strong foundation and the two elements of fire and earth that have not yet been refined into spiritual veins, just the one human-level mid-grade wood spiritual vein is enough to make Jiuxiao look up to him.
It took her hundreds of years and countless hardships to refine a lower-grade human-level water spirit vein.
There are also differences in grades between spiritual veins. The difference between middle-grade human-level and lower-grade human-level is at least three to five times.
If Jiuxiao wanted to cultivate the water spirit veins in his Bi Bo Spirit Realm into mid-level human-grade water spirit veins, the resources and energy required would definitely be much more.
It would take several hundred more years of hard work to have a chance to refine into a mid-level human grade water spirit vein. Jiuxiao gave up just thinking about it.
There is no way. The world of earthly immortals is on the verge of the end of the law, and the resources for cultivation are becoming increasingly scarce. Jiuxiao does not have the ability to obtain so many resources to upgrade the quality of a water spirit vein.
If you spend that much time on it, you might as well collect other resources and cultivate the Five Elements Spiritual Veins for the Bi Bo Spiritual Realm.
With the five elements' spiritual veins gathered together, Jiuxiao can also get a chance to evolve the spiritual space into a blessed land.
Only by breaking through the realm and extending lifespan can you have unlimited opportunities in the future.
Compared with Lu Feng, Jiuxiao felt ashamed.
But when Jiuxiao thought of the promise Lu Feng had just made to recruit her, her heart couldn't help but beat slower.
The amount of resources required for a wood spirit vein is enormous.
Lu Feng's generosity was so huge that Jiuxiao was a little dazed by his generosity.
Jiuxiao bit her rosy lips, afraid that she would agree to Lu Feng as soon as she opened her mouth. She felt extremely conflicted.
On one side is the cultivation resource of a wood spirit vein, and on the other side is the power that she has worked so hard to build up.
For the sake of resources, she gave up the power she had cultivated with her own hands. Jiuxiao felt that she was heading towards becoming a "slave of three surnames" and she felt bad about it.
But if she rejected Lu Feng, what if Senior Lu Feng got angry and started a war with her after being rejected by her?
Although Jiuxiao thought that he was old and had rich experience in fighting, these assets were nothing in front of an old senior.
Especially since Senior Lu Feng's Qingmu Spirit Realm was far more powerful than her Bibo Spirit Realm, she would have no chance of winning if they were to fight.
Seeing Jiuxiao who was struggling and hesitant, Lu Feng poured her another glass of deep sea cold spring water and tried to persuade her again.
After drinking a few more cups of spiritual spring water, Jiuxiao finally made a decision.
"President Luo, I promise you! I am willing to bring the Nine Islands Alliance to join the Red Leaf Association, and I also hope that you can fulfill your promise!"
After saying this, Jiuxiao felt as if a huge stone had fallen from his heart, and he felt a sense of relief as if he had been freed from the shackles.
"Okay! Let's go! I wish us a happy cooperation!"
Hearing this, Lu Feng raised his eyebrows, raised the teacup in his hand and clinked it with Jiuxiao, smiling happily.
Although Lu Feng's idea of persuading Jiuxiao to join the Red Leaf Society was just a sudden impulse, it was a result of serious consideration.
Now, Lu Feng has some influence in both the wizard world and the earthly immortal world. There is no shortage of resources in the wizard world for the time being. It is not a difficult task for Lu Feng to come up with resources to build a wood spirit vein.
It is very cost-effective to use it to recruit Jiuxiao, who is only slightly weaker than him.
With this amount of resources, there is no first-level official wizard in the wizarding world willing to work for him. A first-level official wizard can earn these resources in a few months with just a few efforts.
Jiuxiao inherited his master's legacy and lived here for a long time, so he knew a lot of secrets of the past, which were very useful to Lu Feng.
Soon, after an intense discussion, Lu Feng and Jiu Xiao determined the specific details of Jiu Xiao joining the Red Leaf Society.
The Nine Islands Alliance will slowly merge into the Red Leaf Society within a year.
Jiuxiao also accepted the identity of a guest official of the Red Leaf Society and no longer participated in the management of the ordinary affairs of the Red Leaf Society.
Lu Feng promised to first give Jiuxiao 30% of the Wood Spirit Vein cultivation resources, and the remaining 70% would be given slowly over fourteen years.
Fourteen years is completely acceptable for a Taoist who can live for hundreds of years. Jiuxiao is now 156 years old, but still young and beautiful. She has no objection to Lu Feng's installment payment. But she also made a request that Lu Feng provide her with some spiritual water from the deep sea cold spring every year as interest on the installment payment.
Lu Feng offered Jiuxiao a salary for recruiting her, and Jiuxiao also promised Lu Feng that she would follow his instructions and help with the work.
As long as it is not a dangerous task that endangers her life, she can give you any order.
After the agreement was reached, both parties were happy.
Lu Feng did not waste any time and immediately took out from the spiritual realm the resources promised in the agreement for cultivating the Wood Spiritual Vein.
There are trees, branches and leaves full of rich plant spiritual energy, as well as several baskets of extraordinary plants. These are the trees and weeds that have grown on the land of Qingmu Lingjing in recent years.
With the presence of energy-absorbing ancient tree seedlings and human-grade mid-quality wood spirit veins, the Qingmu Spiritual Realm is filled with rich plant energy and vigorous vitality, and even ordinary plants grow very fast.
Under the influence of the rich plant spiritual energy, these ordinary plants also absorbed a lot of spiritual energy and vitality during the growth process, and evolved towards the direction of extraordinary plants.
Lu Feng ordered Hogg and others, as well as the extraordinary magical beasts, to carefully collect and take care of the plants that had grown into extraordinary plants.
Save the seeds for planting, or collect the harvest and sell them in the Red Leaf Tower to earn wizard magic stones.
As for those plants that failed to evolve successfully, they became inventory in the warehouse after years of cleaning by Hogg and others.
Lu Feng usually threw these junk to the Red Leaf Club, letting Luo Xueqing and others put them on the contribution exchange platform to benefit ordinary members.
Now the cultivation resources that Lu Feng took out and gave to Jiuxiao were also of this kind of plants.
If Jiuxiao knew the origin of these plants, he would definitely beat Lu Feng up.
However, without knowing the origins of these plants, Jiuxiao was very satisfied with the resources provided by Lu Feng, and his eyes were wide open.
Piles of herbal spiritual materials were filled with rich herbal spiritual energy, emitting vigorous vitality that made the weeds and flowers on the surrounding ground straighten their branches and leaves.
“Okay, okay!”
Jiuxiao shouted "good" several times, and quickly opened her Bi Bo Spiritual Realm, collecting all the plant resources given by Lu Feng into the spiritual realm.
Jiuxiao was reluctant to let the precious spiritual energy of these plants dissipate into the air, benefiting the wild flowers and grasses.
After collecting Lu Feng's cultivation resources, Jiuxiao showed a bright smile on her face. Looking at the fulfilling Bi Bo Ling Realm, she felt for the first time that she was so rich.
With this batch of wood-type cultivation resources, plus the wealth she has accumulated over the years, Jiuxiao has already planned to cultivate her wood spirit veins.
However, before setting out to practice, Jiuxiao still had one thing to do.
"President Luo, now that I have joined the Red Leaf Society, the seal of the Dragon Palace under Qiongxia Island."
"Jiuxiao, you have joined the Red Leaf Society, so your business is naturally my business. What's more, you joined the Red Leaf Society as a reward for helping you strengthen the seal!"
When this matter was mentioned, Lu Feng did not refuse.
After becoming Jiuxiao's boss, the relationship between the two became much closer.
Lu Feng naturally did not hide anything and inquired carefully about the seal under Jiuxiao Island.
He has always been cautious and never fights a battle unprepared.
The master who was able to defeat Jiuxiao was the Fairy Luoxia, and the poisonous dragon was famous.
Without clarifying the situation, even if Lu Feng was quite strong, he wouldn't dare to jump into the water.
Seeing Lu Feng asking, Jiuxiao did not hide anything and told Lu Feng the whole story of how the poisonous dragon was sealed under the island.
It was exactly the same story that Jiuxiao had told him just now, except that this time the relationship was closer, and Jiuxiao added many details.
If we reinforce the seal under the island, there will naturally be no danger.
Jiuxiao's master, Fairy Luoxia, is a very capable person. She gave up her spiritual realm and risked her life to set up a seal. After a hundred years, she still sealed the poisonous dragon firmly in the Dragon Palace under the island.
Jiuxiao invited Lu Feng to reinforce the seal because it required a lot of energy to seal the Dragon Palace under the island, and it would take Jiuxiao a long time to reinforce it alone.
In the past, Jiuxiao had to stay under the island for half a year or even longer during each reinforcement.
Previously, the cooperation between the Nine Islands Alliance and the Red Leaf Society was quite pleasant, and Jiuxiao also got to know Lu Feng's character during the cooperation, so when reinforcing the seal this time, he thought of asking for help to share some of the pressure.
After figuring out the whole story, Lu Feng felt obliged to help Jiuxiao strengthen the seal.
At that moment, Jiuxiao and Lu Feng did not delay and after making preparations, they came to the depths of Qiongxia Island.
There is a pool of water here, leading directly to the Dragon Palace under the island where the poisonous dragon is sealed.
“President Luo, I’m going in the water first!”
Jiuxiao chuckled, leaped up, and green waves flowed around him as he jumped into the water like a fish.
Lu Feng has not cultivated the water spirit vein and cannot move freely in the water.
However, he also has his own solution.
The Earth Crown was put on his head, and an ochre-colored spiritual light attached to his body, isolating him from the water in the pond. Lu Feng followed Jiuxiao and jumped into the pond.
Jiuxiao is leading the way, like a fish in water, agile and free.
Lu Feng's spiritual light protection is a bit bulky, but it is very powerful and its speed is not slow after entering the water.
Diving downwards, the sunlight shining through the mouth of the pool gradually disappeared, and the underwater area was shrouded in darkness.
However, both of them have cultivation, and this little darkness cannot cover their eyes at all, and they can still see things easily in the darkness.
Keep diving down, about three or four hundred meters.
The underwater land finally appeared in front of Lu Feng and Jiu Xiao.
There was a dead silence on the dark land, without a single living being in sight.
"President Luo, we're almost there, please follow me!"
Jiuxiao's voice came, and Lu Feng followed closely behind.
Jiuxiao walked in front and brought Lu Feng to a pile of black soil under the water.
With a flick of his sleeves, ripples were stirred, and the pile of black soil dispersed, revealing a stone pillar.
This stone pillar, with its neat hexagonal shape, grew out of the dark soil, yet it was pure white and as bright as jade, totally out of tune with the darkness and silence of the place.
After finding this stone pillar, Jiuxiao smiled and found seven more stone pillars nearby according to the directions of the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams.
Eight stone pillars were unearthed, Jiuxiao made hand gestures and cast a spell, and streams of magic power were poured into the eight stone pillars.
In an instant, bursts of light appeared on the jade-like stone pillars.
"President Luo, don't resist. This is the formation foundation laid by my master. I can activate it and move us to the remnants of her spiritual realm! We need to go there to reinforce the seal!"
When Jiuxiao's voice came, Lu Feng keenly felt the surrounding space fluctuating in the rosy glow, just like the feeling he usually had when he opened the spiritual space.
A slight suction force came, and Lu Feng did not resist as Jiuxiao said.
The next moment, a flash of light appeared in the center of the stone pillar array, covering Lu Feng and Jiu Xiao.
The surrounding space changed, the two disappeared in the rosy glow, and the dark lake bottom returned to calm again.
The scenery changed and Lu Feng looked up and around.
All I could see were tiny dots of stars around me, and the dark lake had disappeared.
Jiuxiao was still beside him, but now they were no longer under Qiandao Lake, but had come to a special spiritual space.
"This is the Luoxia Spiritual Realm where my master used to be. It was extremely glorious back then, but unfortunately, things have changed. Without my master to lead the way, this place has slowly collapsed and no longer has the glory it once had."
Jiuxiao spoke in a desolate tone. He found something nearby and poured his magic power into it.
One by one, lantern-like things lit up, and with the support of Jiuxiao's magic power, they rose from the ground, flew into the sky, and illuminated all directions.
The afterglow of the Luoxia Spiritual Realm was also completely revealed before Lu Feng's eyes.
Without the presidency of Fairy Luoxia, the Luoxia Spiritual Realm was now in ruins, and the spiritual energy in the air was almost the same as that of the outside world.
The spiritual space is also pitifully small, only the size of a building.
The place where the two were was a dilapidated jade building.
There is a crystal glass ball in the center of the building, and the round crystal ball is bound by heavy chains.
Jiuxiao took Lu Feng and walked a few steps before they arrived in front of the crystal ball bound by chains.
"This is the crystal dragon palace of the poisonous dragon! The dragon palace can actually be considered a spiritual realm, but the dragon palace is mostly derived from nature. It is a place where the earth's veins and water vapor converge. It is a precious space that was created after countless years of gestation."
Listening to Jiuxiao's introduction, Lu Feng looked into the crystal ball through the gap in the chain and indeed saw a space the size of a basketball court.
In the space, a dark green poisonous dragon curled up its body and fell into deep sleep and meditation.
This poisonous dragon was obviously the one that harmed Fairy Luoxia.
"What we need is to recharge these chains so that they can continue to function and block the Crystal Dragon Palace from absorbing spiritual energy! In this way, in a few hundred years, the poisonous dragon will be trapped to death!"
Jiuxiao touched the chain, hatred revealed in his eyes.
