Chapter 298 The Daily Life of the Elders
Li Qing didn't care much about the choice of caves. The concentration of spiritual energy was basically the same. After all, it was the spiritual vein occupied by the immortal sect. Even if it was worse, it was better than the caves that most casual cultivators could rent in the outside world.
He had only one requirement, which was secluded!
He didn't make any friends in the sect. Apart from Wu Chong, the only people who were familiar with him were the three immortal seedlings who successfully built their foundations at the same time.
"Let's choose this mountain. It's remote and quiet. There are only two caves on the whole mountain. The others are vacant. It's a good place for meditation."
Li Qing stepped on a leaf-shaped magic weapon and looked at the barren mountain in front of him with satisfaction.
After choosing a place to live for a long time in the future, Li Qing took out a small sand table from his storage bag. His fingertips fell on a protrusion called Huangyun Peak on the sand table. Finally, he picked a cave at random and placed the sand table at the entrance of the cave.
In this way, the information of the cave he chose will soon be synchronized to the sect, and this place will be owned by the master.
In the future, as long as Li Qing does not die, does not betray the sect, and does not encounter any other unexpected situations, he will have no problem living here until he dies.
Once the cave is selected, others cannot enter without permission, otherwise the consequences will be quite serious, and the sect rules are extremely harsh in punishing this.
When he came to the cave, it was full of weeds and thorns. It was obvious that no one had lived in this cave for a long time. Li Qing even suspected that no one had lived in this cave since it was opened.
"Some more particular cultivators will do a geomancy before choosing a cave, or invite some Feng Shui masters who are good at this. I don't understand this line, so I don't have so many particulars."
As he said, Li Qing flicked his fingertips, and a ray of red innate true fire burst out, instantly burning the weeds and thorns in front of the cave, turning them into ashes.
He waved his sleeves, and a strong wind blew up in the air, blowing all the ashes away.
After doing all this, Li Qing casually arranged a few simple prohibitions in front of the cave, and at the same time made some arrangements to isolate the divine sense from detecting.
Of course, if there is a formation plate on hand, Li Qing definitely doesn't mind setting up another set of formations here.
Next is a long period of hard training. During this period, he must go to the polar night world to see if he can search for some immortal skills or secret techniques that have been thrown into the pile of old papers and make full use of the resources there.
"Well, that's it."
Clapping his hands, Li Qing stepped in, and at the same time released his divine sense to explore the furnishings around the cave.
In addition to the main hall, there are four dark rooms. If Li Qing feels that it is not enough, he can open it up by himself.
For a cultivator in the foundation-building period, opening mountains and splitting rocks to increase the size of the cave is nothing but a piece of cake.
However, Li Qing had no idea about this. He felt the spiritual energy of this place and was already satisfied.
Immediately, he released several large-scale water purification spells, and easily washed away the dust accumulated in the cave.
After reaching the foundation-building stage, these small spells were absolutely easy for him to use, and even with the blessing of liquid mana, the power became quite large.
When he performed them casually, they were far beyond the reach of cultivators in the Qi Refining stage.
"Come out, you, you will be a guard tiger here from now on."
Li Qing smiled slightly, and then freed Fan Tong from the beast-controlling bag.
Fan Tong was still in the late first stage and had not broken through to the second-stage monster.
But the aura on his body was already quite condensed, and the color of his fur was very deep, especially the pair of heterochromatic tiger pupils, which looked very extraordinary.
"Aohou!"
Fan Tong raised his head to the sky and roared, shaking the earth. The fierce sound waves swept the whole cave.
If Li Qing had not set up a ban in advance to isolate the movement and the detection of spiritual consciousness, this roar would definitely disturb the other two foundation-building elders on Huangyun Peak.
"Okay, okay, I have no choice but to lock you in the beast bag for so long. I was hunted down so badly some time ago, and then I joined the sect and there were a lot of trivial matters. How could I let you out for a breath of fresh air?"
"Next, you stay here well. This is the spiritual vein of the sect. The richness of spiritual energy is beyond words."
Li Qing said with a smile, and then patted the soft fur on Fan Tong's sturdy and thick back.
Soon, Fan Tong did sense that the spiritual energy here was quite rich. It was almost the most spiritually rich residence it had lived in since it followed Li Qing, and it was even better than Tianhefang City and Qinghuatan.
Only then did it dispel some of its dissatisfaction with being locked in the beast bag for so many days, and then happily went into a dark room near the cave and began to close its eyes and fall asleep.
After placing the rice bucket, Li Qing turned around and casually arranged a few night pearls as decorations, and then took out a set of tables, chairs and beds from the storage bag. The layout of the entire cave was also completed.
"Next, I will go to the Transmission Hall to see if I can find a suitable technique or secret technique."
This is the benefit of becoming an elder, and Li Qing will naturally not let it go.
Although there is an entire polar night world to explore, the inheritance of the sect is also very important. If you can find a suitable technique, it will definitely be the best.
At worst, he can also find a second-level body-refining secret technique to first upgrade his physical body to the level of physical training equivalent to the foundation-building stage. In this way, it will also provide a lot of convenience for him to explore the polar night world. .
Just because next, he will go to Tianliang Mountain in the Extreme Night World, a cultivating force that once dominated the Black Wind Territory.
Regarding this sect that once had more than one foundation-building monk, Li Qing was naturally covetous of the abandoned immortal inheritance within it.
Immediately, he hung the token symbolizing his status as an elder on his waist and flew to the Zongmen Square where the Chuan Gong Hall was located.
"I've met Elder Li!"
"I've met Elder Li!"
"I've seen it."
Along the way, any Qi-refining stage disciples who bumped into Li Qing all bowed to him respectfully, with a rather low attitude.
In response, Li Qing just nodded calmly on the surface, but he couldn't help but feel a little complacent in his heart.
In this real world of cultivating immortals, in the past, no one would look at him seriously when he was walking on the road. Now, once he successfully builds the foundation, all the disciples look down upon him.
Li Qing, who was a little secretly happy, even thought in a wicked way in his heart, whether he should go out to find the disciples who asked him to buy the Foundation Establishment Pill before, go around in front of them, and see what Zheng Donghe and others would be like. expression!
Of course, he was just thinking about this evil idea, and he would definitely not have enough time to implement it.
Arriving at the island where the Gong Chuan Hall was located, Li Qing consciously stepped down from the flying magic weapon. This was to walk across the square to the Gong Chuan Hall.
The sect has some small rules. If there is no emergency, it is forbidden to fly in the air on some important suspended islands.
It's just that these trivial rules have no binding force on the elders. Basically, they only restrict the disciples in the Qi refining period.
However, Li Qing had just established his foundation and had become an elder not long ago, so he did not intend to put on such airs and deliberately violate the rules of the sect to show his status as an elder.
He couldn't do such a stupid thing.
While walking, the disciples passing by him continued to salute him.
But soon, an angry shout came from the front right:
"Li Xiaotong, get over here, I want to fight you to the death!"
From the right side of the square, a disciple in the middle stage of Qi refining was seen striding towards him with red eyes, staring at a male disciple who had just walked out of the Qigong transmission hall.
The male disciple named Li Xiaotong frowned. He put his hands behind his back and said contemptuously: "Yang Shan, I advise you not to humiliate yourself. Shuhua and I are in love, do you have to interfere?"
Yang Shan roared angrily: "Who knows what kind of ecstasy you gave Shuhua? Today I challenge you, do you dare to accept it?"
"Why should I accept your challenge for no reason? Do you think that if you defeat me, Shuhua will be willing to be with you?" Li Xiaotong said disdainfully.
Yang Shan's mood was very unstable, and he yelled: "You coward, Shuhua and my childhood sweetheart entered the sect together, you must have deceived her feelings."
The movement of the two people immediately attracted the attention of many people. Many disciples came over and prepared small benches, planning to eat melon and watch the show at the same time.
It was said to be a decisive battle, but in fact Yang Shan's winning rate was not high, because Li Xiaotong was already in the late stage of Qi refining and was a step ahead of him.
But Li Xiaotong was not in a hurry to agree, and he didn't care at all about Yang Shan's insults. He said lightly: "I have no interest in fighting for the sake of jealousy. If you are willing to come up with some bonuses, I can consider it."
"I heard that you collected a black ice leaf and an aniseed grass a few days ago. How about using this as a betting prize?"
After hearing this, Li Qing could basically understand the root cause of the conflict between the two disciples.
He subconsciously planned to leave, preparing to avoid this dispute and not wanting to cause trouble for himself.
But he soon stopped.
No, I am already a fucking elder of the sect. It would be too shameful to walk away when a disciple has a conflict with me!
Immediately, Li Qing pretended to have a gloomy face, walked forward with a serious expression, and shouted: "What a shame! The Chuan Gong Hall is a quiet place for the sect. How can I allow you to make noises and fights here!"
As he spoke, he also released the aura of his foundation-building monk.
Feeling this pressure, the onlookers dispersed immediately. After seeing Li Qing and the badge on his body, they all greeted him respectfully:
"I've met Elder Li!"
Li Qing just nodded in greeting, and soon walked towards the two Qi Refining Stage disciples who were about to start the decisive battle with a gloomy expression, staring at the two of them seriously.
"I've met Elder Li!"
"I've met Elder Li!"
Yang Shan and Li Xiaotong both bowed slightly and saluted Li Qing, their expressions slightly nervous.
"Hmph, I heard it from afar. You are disciples of the Lingyun Sect. You actually ignored the feelings of brothers and sisters and decided to fight here for the sake of the love of your children. Is this ridiculous?!"
"The sect didn't recruit you here just to make you jealous and fight against each other!"
"Go back here and think about it for three days. Think carefully about whether you entered the sect in order to pursue the immortal way or to be jealous!"
"As cultivators, we should strive for the path of immortality with all our heart, regardless of the cold or heat, and only seek to practice hard and make progress. You should all think back to your original intention of entering the immortal path!"
Li Qing's words were powerful and even had some spiritual power, which was quite contagious.
Just these few words made Yang Shan, who proposed the duel, feel deafened and his face suddenly turned red.
He immediately reflected on himself and felt that he was too impulsive. He actually gambled the foundation-building pill auxiliary medicine he had collected with great difficulty for a woman, and he was fighting a disciple with a higher realm than him.
The decision he made after losing his mind really scared him. If he lost, it would definitely make him regret for the rest of his life.
Besides, even if he won, would Shuhua reconcile with him?
Thinking of this, Yang Shan clasped his fists respectfully and said, "Thank you for your teachings, elder!"
A trace of helplessness flashed across Li Xiaotong's eyes, but he also said respectfully to Li Qing, "I will follow your teachings."
Hearing this, Li Qing's expression eased slightly, and he said, "You are able to join the sect, so you are naturally talented, and the conditions for cultivation have already surpassed most of the casual cultivators who are struggling outside."
"Remember to cherish these cultivation conditions, don't waste your time, and wait until your hair is white, and you will be sad for nothing."
"We are all fellow disciples, and we must live in harmony and help each other in the future!"
After saying this, Li Qing left in the respectful eyes of many disciples, chanting softly, "When you are black, you don't know how difficult it is to build a foundation, and when you are white, you regret practicing too late."
The last sentence of this magically modified poem from the previous life fell into the ears of many disciples, like a thunderbolt that hit everyone's mind.
Many disciples murmured to themselves:
"Black-haired, I don't know. Yes, what have I been doing recently? I have been eager to make friends with fellow disciples, and I haven't practiced Qi seriously for several months."
"Hiss, Elder Li is worthy of being able to build a foundation with four spiritual roots. This statement is really deafening."
"Sure enough, Elder Li can build a foundation, naturally he has his own strengths, such hard work is admirable."
"."
All of a sudden, all the disciples looked at Li Qing with more respect, and no one would think that this ordinary elder could build a foundation successfully just by luck.
Soon, these things that happened in front of the square of the Transmission Hall were quickly spread, and at the same time, the magic-modified ancient poem that Li Qing said at the end also made many people savor it carefully.
In the main hall of Yunxiao Island, after listening to the trivial matters, Sect Master Xuyun couldn't help but narrow his eyes and whispered in admiration:
"You don't know how difficult it is to build a foundation when you are young, and you regret practicing too late when you are old."
"Haha, this Junior Brother Li is really a wonderful person, but it's true that only casual cultivators of this humble origin can understand the hard-won resources of the sect and the importance of cherishing the time for cultivation."
Then, Sect Master Xuyun pondered for a while, and then wrote a letter by hand.
The content was simple, and it turned out that he wanted to record Li Qing's words in front of the Transmission Hall to warn all the disciples of the sect.
