Chapter 368 Experience in the Lower Court

The prosperous land of Zhongzhou, the hometown of three thousand ways!

Although it is also listed as one of Kyushu, Zhongzhou has obvious differences from other states. First of all, it is large. Zhongzhou is connected to Youzhou and Fengzhou in the north, Baxia in the west, and embraces the East China Sea. Its area is enough to cover three other states.

The second is strong. There are countless immortal sects and aristocratic families in Zhongzhou. It is even said that more than half of most of the ancient aristocratic families that have been passed down for a long time are in Zhongzhou, and at least 30% of the world's first-class great immortal sects are located within the territory of Zhongzhou. Therefore, there has always been a saying in the practice world that "the world's best people come from Zhongzhou". Seldom has a relationship with Zhongzhou.

As for the seven holy places in the world, let alone.

Among the seven holy places, three are located in Zhongzhou.

It is precisely because of this that Zhongzhou has always been regarded as the orthodox root of all practitioners in the world. It is a dream country that has extended the immortal law to the extreme. The monks of the world, even the demon species in the extreme west, and the swordsmen in the extreme northern snowfield are all proud of being able to travel to Zhongzhou.

Because of this tradition, of course Fang Yuan also came to Zhongzhou.

At the beginning when he left Qingyang Sect, he was ordered by the suzerain to travel around the world. If he didn't come to Zhongzhou, how could it be considered travel?

And when he left Yue Kingdom and left Yunzhou, he planned to come to Zhongzhou as the first place to find good fortune and continue his practice, but unfortunately he was delayed by other things. He didn't expect that even the purple pill has been made, so he finally came here...

After parting with the people in those tribes, the carriage headed northward across the sky, and it took only three or four days to officially enter the border of Zhongzhou.

Lifting the curtain and looking out, one can see fairy peaks everywhere, hiding many high-minded people who cultivate mind and nature, the plain is vast and vast, and there are many bustling cities and towns. The fairy wind blows in the face, and there seems to be boundless Taoism.

"Zhongzhou is divided into five regions. We are going to Wendao Mountain in Central Region this time. Hehe, for this big test of the Six Paths, experts from all walks of life have already rushed here under the agreement of the Immortal Alliance. Today Wendao Mountain is probably full of masters like clouds, hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Fang Xiaoyou, after you arrive at Wendao Mountain, you should guard your mind, think more, don't be reckless!"

Cave master Zixiao entered the realm of Zhongzhou, he was also refreshed, and said with a smile.

After hearing this, Fang Yuan naturally nodded in agreement.

Now they were still in the south of Zhongzhou, so they continued to move forward, and after another three to five days, they arrived at a place called Yunyi Mountain, but they saw that here, they had already set up a fairy platform, and many practitioners were walking up and down the clouds.

"Master Ruan, we have been waiting here for a long time according to the orders of our superiors. I didn't expect Master Ruan to arrive just now!"

The Master of Zixiao Cave, Ruan Jishu, got out of the carriage with Fang Yuan and the others, and greeted the patrolling envoys of the Immortal Alliance, he said with a smile: "I should have arrived earlier, but there was a delay on the way, so it was only a few days late, but it's really my fault for keeping everyone waiting for a long time!"

Those patrol envoys all laughed and said: "Let me wait for a long time without any defense, I am afraid that some old friends of yours will punish you if they see you!"

Fang Yuan followed Zixiao Cave Master to observe, and saw that the patrolling envoys were all in the Golden Core realm, one was a low-level Golden Core, and two were middle-level Golden Cores.

This made him take another high look at the Xianmeng. Even the tour envoy with the lowest rank in the Xianmeng can be regarded as the top of the cultivators, let alone the existence of a higher level? When I was in Yue Kingdom, the patrol envoy who was in charge of guarding a part of Yue State once said that after I had formed an alchemy, I could go to him and secure my position as a tour envoy. This promise is really not light.

"Who are these two?"

Just as Fang Yuan was looking at the parade envoy, those people also noticed him and asked with a smile.

Zixiao Cave Master smiled and said: "These two are young friends I met on the road. They are kind-hearted, generous and chivalrous. The old man hits it off with the two of them, so I invited them to go with me. When I arrived at Wenwen Mountain, I still wanted to recommend them to serve in the examination preparation department..."

"oh?"

When the patrol envoys saw it, they all said, "Since it was recommended by Master Ruan, I think it's very powerful, so it's easy to talk about!"

As he said that, he invited a few people into the mountain, and that night, he had wine and hospitality, but Fang Yuan didn't go with him. Although most people in the cultivation world talk about friends according to their cultivation level, he is now a Jindan cultivator, so he is also qualified to sit and discuss with these people, but in the eyes of others, he is just a cultivator of mixed alchemy. Just make up the number.

Therefore, he was very sensible, so he reasoned that he was still a little uncomfortable, so he didn't bother.

Those patrol envoys naturally stopped demanding and asked the handyman to pick him up and arrange a resting place.

And the Zixiao Cave Master saw it, and sighed secretly, thinking that if Fang Yuan had a thicker skin, he could lead him to meet some experts and help him, but since he was timid, even if he couldn't grasp the opportunity, he had no choice but to let him go.

Such a night passed, and on the second day, the Zixiao cave master asked Tong'er to call Fang Yuan, gave him a recommendation, and asked him to go to Danxi, Chishui, three thousand miles away, to report.

Cave Master Zixiao still has to wait here to meet a few old friends, and Fang Yuan naturally doesn't need to wait here any longer.

"Thank you senior!"

Fang Yuan thanked the Zixiao Cave Master, and he was not polite, and got up together with Guan Ao.

When he was on the way, he had already told the Zixiao Cave Master that he wanted to repay, it didn't matter if the other party cared or not, as long as he kept it in his heart.

After Xiaoxing stayed overnight, Fang Yuan arrived at Chishui River three days later, but he saw that it was a fairy mountain, surrounded by mountains and water, and a small stream surrounded the front of the mountain, because the bottom of the stream was covered with a kind of red rocks, which reflected the water like cinnabar, so it was named Chishui.

And in this mountain, there are several big palaces built, and countless medicine gardens and elixir gardens, etc. You can smell the fragrance of alchemy from a distance, but it is the Chishui Danxi under the control of Langya Pavilion.

When he arrived here, Fang Yuan didn't stop much, so he handed over a letter of recommendation and waited to be summoned.

Facts have proved that Zixiao Cave's main cultivation base may not be very good, but in alchemy, he is really famous. After his letter of recommendation was handed in, he was summoned by a man wearing a white alchemist robe. The people next to him called him the deacon of the upper court, and claimed that his surname was Xu.

The guests and hosts sat down in a side hall, and Deacon Xu said with a smile: "Master Ruan has the title of Little Alchemy King in the East China Sea, and is a rare great master of alchemy in our alchemy. Since you are recommended by him, Xu does not dare to neglect you. I just don't know how high is your alchemy?"

Fang Yuan heard this, and said: "I haven't passed the alchemist exam yet, and I don't have a rank!"

Deacon Xu frowned slightly when he heard this, and said in a deep thought: "You are in the Golden Alchemy realm, so you can enter the Upper Court, but you are a newcomer after all, so it's better to get some experience in the Intermediate Court first, but the point is, you don't have the name of an alchemist..."

He looked at Fang Yuan, smiled, and tapped his fingers on the table: "Brother, I'm a bit embarrassed!"

"Is this... wanting benefits?"

When Fang Yuan saw Deacon Xu's wink, he knew it.

On the way here, the Zixiao Cave Master also told him about the composition of the examination preparation department. It is divided into upper, middle and lower courts. The upper court is in charge of contacting various experts and purchasing elixir furnaces.

And this examination preparation department probably has more than a thousand people up and down, and this is not considered handyman, but there are only a few dozen people who really belong to the Xianmeng.

It is precisely because of this that Fang Yuan never thought about grabbing the upper house quota.

However, Cave Master Zixiao also told him that for his own sake, since he had written the letter of recommendation, it would be no problem to arrange for Fang Yuan to enter the Intermediate Court. Besides, Fang Yuan, as a Golden Core cultivator, would not have been able to hang out with those people in the Lower Court...

But now, this Executive Xu was troubled by the accident and pondered endlessly, which was obviously implying something.

Fang Yuan could see it clearly at a glance, but pondered: "It's fine to give him some benefits, but I don't have many elves on hand. If I give him these kinds of magic weapons or medicines in the Qiankun bag, it might scare him all of a sudden..."

While he was meditating, there was another announcement from outside. After a while, a Golden Core cultivator wearing a yellow robe came in, with a distressed expression on his face. As soon as he entered the door, he knelt down in front of Deacon Xu, holding a box in his hand, hesitating to speak.

Deacon Xu said with a smile: "No hurry, talk to the side hall..."

He asked Fang Yuan to wait here for a while, and then led the yellow-robed monk to the side hall. When he was seated, the yellow-robed monk hurriedly brought up the box, but there were three green beads inside.

Deacon Xu raised his head with a smile, and heard the yellow-robed monk lower his voice, pleading: "Deacon Xu, don't be offended. Li used to be ignorant and filial, so he should have practiced in the Lower Court. But in the past two months, I have been in the Lower Court taking care of the alchemy furnace, tidying up the pharmacopoeia, and checking the elixir. It's been hard work day and night. I beg the Deacon to be merciful and transfer me to the Intermediate Court..."

Deacon Xu laughed softly after hearing this, and said, "What are you talking about? Since you want to be transferred, just tell me straight up, why go through all these detours? Forget it, you go back and wait. When there is a vacancy in the middle courtyard, I will naturally bring you up!"

They deliberately went to the side hall and spoke in a low voice. They thought that Fang Yuan could not hear clearly, but they didn't want Fang Yuan's Zidan cultivation base and strong spiritual sense, but they listened to their conversation without uttering a word, especially those who took care of the alchemy furnace, cleaned up the pharmacopoeia, checked the elixir, etc., really moved him.

Originally, he planned to randomly pick out an inconspicuous magic weapon for him, but he immediately put it back.

At this moment, Deacon Li walked back triumphantly, and asked Fang Yuan, "How is Fang Daoyou thinking?"

Fang Yuan sighed helplessly, and said: "Deacon Xu has good intentions, I understand, but I really don't have anything..."

"oh?"

The deacon Xu's face suddenly turned down, and he said lightly: "Then there is a vacancy in the lower house, why don't you go to experience it first?"

After hearing this, Fang Yuan hurriedly smiled and said, "Thank you Deacon Xu!"
