Chapter 331: All kinds of human life, attacking the Fire Workshop!

The eighty-eighth year of Xianlin, summer.

The atmosphere, which had already reached its climax, finally exploded.

After fruitless negotiations, the monks who were oppressed by the Immortal House formed the Freemason Alliance, determined to work together to overthrow the Immortal House and become masters of their own destiny.

The only one who can stay out of it for the time being is Ning Fang.

But the news about the war leaked out unknowingly, and even in Ningfang, there were undercurrents.

Artificial spiritual stones, which had never been of much use, suddenly became popular.

In contrast, the cultivation of the immortal seedlings who had signed the contract in the mortal area suddenly began to rise steadily, and their promotion speed was even faster than that of the heavenly spiritual roots.

Such an obvious abnormality should have been noticed by anyone who was paying attention, but the top executives of Ningfang turned a blind eye to it, as if they didn't notice the actions below at all.

Not only that, Ning Fang suddenly announced that all the spiritual rice collected in accordance with the contract in the past three years would be returned in the form of spiritual stones.

Even the immortal arts stored in the library had suddenly dropped in price. They were no longer priced at exorbitant prices. Even a cultivator who had just grown spiritual rice for a year could grit his teeth and buy a magic spell to practice.

Ning Fang's sudden change in attitude made the lower-level monks overjoyed.

Before the Freemason Alliance came out, what benefits did the Immortal House give them? Not trying to deduct the spiritual stones was considered kind, but as for exchanging the spiritual rice they had received for spiritual stones, and giving out three years of spiritual rice at once, that was unprecedented, like the sun rising from the west!

It is not difficult to find the root cause of such an incredible thing.

Freemason Alliance! Immortal House Battle!

The lower-level cultivators might have thought that the Ningfang high-level officials had seen the fate of the other five immortal houses and were afraid that they would also rise up in resistance like those oppressed cultivators, so they had to spit out the meat in their mouths.

It's well-founded and cannot be refuted.

Therefore, after actually receiving the three-year "huge sum of money", more cultivators converted it into artificial spirit stones to improve their cultivation at a faster speed.

Of course, there is always a lack of speculators at any time. Some people take this opportunity to frantically recycle standard spirit stones and buy yellow-level caves. I believe that Ningfang can at least last another thirty or forty years - that's not a loss! In this way, the ratio of standard spirit stones to artificial spirit stones remains stable, but for the immortal seedlings who have just joined the immortal square for more than ten years, buying a cave is too far away, and they don't have the ability to speculate even if they want to.

It seems that there are many choices before them, but in fact there is only one.

That is to exchange spirit stones into corresponding strength!

As for investing in the future?

That is something only those with plenty of money can do. They can't afford to gamble and they only have one chance to lose.

Being in Ningfang, Gu Dan witnessed all the changes with his own eyes.

When walking on the road, almost every monk was in a hurry as they had a lot of things to do.

Even beside the ridges of the spiritual rice fields, there were no cultivators to be seen - on the first day of the war, Ning Fang announced that no taxes would be collected in the next three years, and the matter would be discussed again after three years.

The cage that had been pressing on them quietly opened a gap, and the news from the Freemasonry Alliance awakened the tiger in their hearts.

"It's like a volcano that's accumulating strength and is just about to explode!"

Gu Dan shook his head slightly.

This freed him from the whirlpool of public opinion. Even if someone saw him in Ningfang, they would not bother to ask about the internal breathing technique at this time. After all, it would take more than seventy years, and no one dared to guarantee whether Ningfang could survive this period! "Brother Kong, are you in the cave?"

Gu Dan was bored and reading some Taoist books when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"exist."

Gu Dan opened the cave and, as expected, saw Lu Yu at a glance.

"Shall we go inside and talk?"

Lu Yu pointed at his cave, as if he had something to discuss, and spoke first.

"good."

There is nothing wrong with taking care of the worries.

Stepping into the cave, Lu Yu first looked around Gu Dan's cave, as if he was looking for something. After not seeing anything, he said, "Now that the war has begun, Brother Kong has also received the news, right?"

"Received. Brother Lu's reminder is on the communication talisman. How could I not remember it?"

Gu Dan pulled a chair over and responded.

"What do you think of this war?"

Lu Yu asked.

Gu Dan was slightly stunned. What did he think of the war? With his current status and strength, it was not his turn to watch. Lu Yu knew him very well, so why would he ask such a question? "In my opinion, a war is inevitable. Ningfang will take this opportunity to watch from the sidelines, and wait for the right time to send down a divine army and take down the whole ward in one fell swoop."

Gu Dan actually told the truth according to his own calculations.

Even without his presence, he was more optimistic about Ning Fang at this time. At least he had the advantage of taking the initiative. As long as he didn't drag his feet too much, there was almost no possibility of failure.

"You think so, too?"

Lu Yu's eyes showed clear joy, and he said firmly: "That's right, we will stay out of this war. When the battle situation is completely chaotic and there is no time to take care of other things, Ningfang will go all out and will definitely be able to wipe out one of the immortal houses!"

"Extremely."

Gu Dan nodded slightly, agreeing with this view.

"Brother Kong, to be honest, I came here this time because I want to ask you for something."

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost ready, Lu Yu just said: "In this battle, I believe you also know that as long as you kill one of the other side's foundation building, any foundation building will do - you can exchange it for a spiritual energy born from the spiritual energy source.

Its effect of creating spiritual energy is not inferior to any other realm-breaking spiritual medicine, and it has no side effects on cultivators. In this respect, it is even better than the realm-breaking spiritual medicine."

Without giving Gu Dan a chance to speak, Lu Yu continued at a very fast speed: "To be honest, the entire Ningfang is now trying every way to quickly enhance its strength, but your brother has been looking forward to it for several years after practicing Qi, but has been unable to be trapped before the foundation-building barrier.

If you want to improve your strength, there is almost no other way except to break through the realm. I wanted to find an opportunity to kill a foundation-building cultivator in this battle, in exchange for the good fortune spirit energy, and use this as a proof to try to advance to the foundation-building stage.

But a few days ago, I heard that you got a three-leaf spiritual vein flower, which is one of the spiritual medicines used to break through the foundation. I have been thinking about it these days, and I want to shamelessly come here to talk to you about it.

Can you lend me the three-leaf spiritual vein flower first? After I get promoted, I will definitely kill the foundation-building monster and return the spiritual energy of creation to you.

Brother also knows that he is a little thick-skinned, but you have just reached the middle stage of Qi training. Even if you keep the three-leaf spiritual vein flower, it will take several decades before you can use it.

Decades, no one can guarantee what will happen, right? If Ningfang succeeds, then the savings of the other immortal houses will fall into our hands, and there must be other spiritual objects that can be used to build the foundation. I will give you another one that is not necessarily worse than the three-leaf spiritual vein flower. What do you think?"

Lu Yu said so much in one breath, but he didn't even blink, staring at Gu Dan.

By the way, he added: "If you are worried, we can also ask the head of the Huang Dynasty to be a witness. As long as I, Lu Yu, am still alive, I will definitely do what I say."

These words were spoken with sincerity and there was nothing wrong with them.

But Gu Dan's expression seemed a little complicated, and he said helplessly: "Brother Lu Yu."

"Hmm? What?"

Just looking at Gu Dan's expression, Lu Yu's heart sank, but he still managed a smile, "You think it's inappropriate."

"It's not inappropriate."

Gu Dan shook his head and said, "It's just that the three-leaf spiritual vein flower has been eaten by me."

"have eaten?!"

Lu Yu's voice suddenly rose a lot, almost tearing people's eardrums.

"Yes."

Gu Dan turned around and pulled out the large pot where the three-leaf spiritual vein flower was planted from under the table. He saw that the spiritual soil in the pot was still glowing slightly, but the three-leaf spiritual vein flower in the center had disappeared.

In addition, as if to prove that he was really gone, Gu Dan's aura rose, already equivalent to the sixth level of Qi training, only one step away from reaching the late stage of Qi training.

With such rapid progress, no one would believe that he didn't eat.

Seeing with his own eyes that the three-leaf spiritual vein flower was gone, Lu Yu's face immediately darkened and he scolded: "Why did you eat it?!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

“.”

Gu Dan didn't say anything, but just looked at Lu Yu dimly.

Lu Yu also knew that he had said something wrong, and his interrogative aura suddenly disappeared. He forced out a rather ugly smile and said, "The three-leaf spiritual vein flower is a spiritual object that can be used to build a foundation! You have only just reached the middle stage of Qi training, how can you squander it like this!"

"As Brother Lu said, the war is about to start. How can we wait for decades? We can only improve our own strength first, and then make other plans."

Gu Dan said calmly.

"Hey, you. This."

With a long sigh, Lu Yu's face was not looking good anymore, but he still cupped his hands and said, "In that case, it is Lu who is being reckless. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

He left the cave without looking back.

Watching Lu Yu leave in a hurry and quickly, Gu knew with worry that there would be one less person to drink with in the future.

After Lu Yu left, several monks from the Law Enforcement Hall came to Gu Dan's cave one by one. Their intentions were no different from Lu Yu's.

In the end, Gu Dan simply threw the flowerpot that previously contained the three-leaf spiritual vein flower out of the cave door, clearly indicating that the three-leaf spiritual vein flower had been eaten.

At this point, the disturbance to him came to an end.

"The three-leaf spiritual vein flower was eaten by him?!"

In Lingzhen Hall, Murong Ying raised his eyebrows, his face full of disbelief.

That is a spiritual object for building the foundation. How could Kong Zhai bear to eat it?

There is only this one three-leaf spiritual vein flower in the entire Ningfang! "He really ate it. His strength has reached the sixth level of Qi training. There is absolutely no falsehood."

Qian Qiancheng said firmly, feeling both distressed and admiring.

Anyone who is blinded by ambition would be reluctant to use the spiritual objects for foundation building as nourishment for improving their cultivation. After all, there is still a huge chasm between Qi training and foundation building.

But Kong Zhai was quite decisive. He did not give others any chance to covet it and swallowed it directly. No one could have any ideas about taking the three-leaf spiritual vein flower anymore.

"Alas, this is a bit of a pity."

Murong Ying also realized that his attitude was too obvious, and immediately added: "I wanted to wait until later to exchange other things from him for the three-leaf spirit vein flower."

"Yeah, that's a shame."

Qian Qiancheng agreed with a smile.

The next war is about to begin. Who can guarantee that there will be no accidents? If Kong Zhai still hides the three-leaf spiritual vein flower, he may not even dare to step out of the cave.

Now, even if others say a few words, they can’t dig the three-leaf spirit vein flower out of his stomach, so a lot of trouble is avoided.

As the days passed, Gu Dan rarely went out.

Occasionally, he would drink with Zhuangzi, chat about everything under the sun, and discuss things from the past and present.

Zhuang Sheng was extremely interested in supernatural matters, while Gu Dan was well-read and as knowledgeable as Zhuang Sheng. The two men seemed to have met each other too late. Zhuang Sheng even stayed in Gu Dan's cave for several days, talking about what he had seen and heard during his ten-year journey to the Buzhou Mountains.

Ordinary people rushing to the Buzhou Mountains must be in a hurry and have no time to care about anything else.

However, he was leisurely and whenever he went to a place, he would always look for the classics and even myths and legends about immortal stories there, and compare them with each other.

Zhuang Sheng did not seem to be serious about true cultivation. His level of Qi training was only at the middle stage, or to be more precise, the fifth stage. He was even weaker than the strength shown by Gu Dan at that moment.

When Gu Dan asked why this was so, Zhuang Sheng laughed and said, "If one pursues power blindly in this world, it would be too hard and boring. It would be like an ant running around for a living, just for an invisible future. How can there be any happiness in that?

I came here just to see a different scenery from the mortal world, but I found that it was no different from the mortal world. It was just more powerful.

Although my cultivation is not high, I think I am happier than all the cultivators in this immortal academy. So, can't I also say that I am ascending to the immortal path?"

It's well-founded and cannot be refuted.

According to Gu Dan, there were indeed some masters who could not stand the oppression and hardship in the so-called "Immortal House", and after coming there for a while, they returned to the secular world and lived a carefree and happy life.

But there are only a few people who can be so open-minded and see things in a positive way.

Although Zhuangzi did not seek immortality, Gu Dan saw in Zhuangzi the kind of carefree happiness that people in the world pursue for immortality.

He didn't have much savings, and the salary from the Law Enforcement Hall was exchanged for spiritual wine or various rare treasures and secret books. However, he was extremely happy and had no worries about his improvement in strength.

“Everyone will die one day, there is nothing to be afraid of.

I have been to this world, I have seen it, and I live for myself. "

Zhuangzi said this as the wine cups clinked, before he became drunk.

Gu Dan drank with him.

The aroma of Ningyu wine washed away all the clutter from the outside world.

When the wine was in high spirits, Gu Dan chanted: "May your beauty remain unchanged. I amuse myself among flowers and forget my worries in wine."

The two of them were already drunk while laughing for a long time.

Not long after, Gu Dan received news that Ningfang was ready and prepared to go.

Target: Fire Workshop.
