Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World

Chapter 281 0280: Relics

When he appeared in the market hut, he didn't see Luo Dingran, who he usually saw.

He looked at the consignment column, where more than 3,000 Red Blood Pills and one million kilograms of wild rice were consigned, but nothing else.

The Red Blood Pills have been his biggest income in the past few months and have become his mainstay industry.

All the materials for the Red Blood Pills have basically been planted on a large scale, so this raw material will not be a problem in the future. In addition, Red Blood Mushrooms and Red Jade Ganoderma are also being planted and cultivated on a large scale outside, so a large amount of Red Blood Pills can be supplied from outside in the future.

As for the wild rice, in order to sell the stored grain before the next harvest, Luo Dingran set the price at one point per five kilograms.

This is a five-fold increase from the previous ratio of one point to one kilogram.

For Cheng Zongyang, this was no problem at all, as long as he could exchange it for points. After all, the harvest of wild rice was really not low. He would be fine even if it was exchanged for ten kilograms.

When I left the cabin, I saw that the farmland outside, which was originally used to grow wild rice, had now become a cultivation ground for red blood mushrooms.

"Sir!" A soul slave who was responsible for picking red blood mushrooms every day saw Cheng Zongyang coming, and hurriedly put down the work at hand, stood up and bowed.

Cheng Zongyang asked, "Where is Manager Luo?"

The soul slave immediately said, "He told me before he left. If you come, tell you that he went to Ruins No. 1."

Hearing this, Cheng Zongyang nodded slightly and said, "Okay, go ahead and get busy."

"Yes, my lord."

The soul slave bowed and left, while Cheng Zongyang looked around, turned and entered the cabin, and went to the teleportation building to teleport directly to the No. 1 Ruins Station.

Appearing in another place, Cheng Zongyang looked at the surrounding environment and found that he was in a small wooden house. There were many tools piled up inside.

When we got outside, we saw that we were actually halfway up a mountain. This was where the ruins discovered by the expedition team were.

At the beginning, he only heard Luo Dingran report the general situation and had never been here.

Luo Dingran, who was watching people digging the soil not far away, saw someone coming out of the wooden house out of the corner of his eye. He turned around and found that it was Cheng Zongyang.

He immediately walked over and asked with a smile, "Sir, are you done with your work?"

Cheng Zongyang nodded and said, "We are almost done with the work. The rest will have to wait. In addition, we have to find a way to make Yufeng Xiancheng able to maintain an overall virtuous cycle. There will be a lot of things to come."

Luo Dingran agreed, "That's true, but once those people go to the Ice and Fire Immortal Cultivation World, I'm afraid they won't come back."

Cheng Zongyang smiled and said, "It's none of my business whether they come back or not, but the price for them to go there is not only signing a contract, but also money and spiritual stones. Besides, what I want is to make Yufeng Immortal City become a real city, not just an ordinary city with a name but no substance."

Luo Dingran: "That's difficult. Tianduan Mountain is not a place like those in the world of immortal cultivation that has valuable spiritual medicines and monsters. It is also not a place where there is no risk."

Cheng Zongyang: "The martial arts world also has its own resources. The resources of Tianduan Mountain are also extremely rich, including exotic beasts and precious medicinal materials. If martial artists can collect these items or grow the raw materials we need in exchange for future cultivation resources, they will be happy to do so."

Whether the resources in the Ice and Fire Immortal Cultivation World were scarce or not had no effect on him at all. He had control over the resources in the Martial Arts World and the Wilderness World, which was enough for him to carry out layout and control.

Luo Dingran: "The value is not equal."

Cheng Zongyang just smiled and said, "Whether it is equal or not is up to us. Besides, without the skills, they can only wait. In the early stage, they can only improve through the way of martial arts. In my place, except for my people, there is no one who can directly practice the immortal skills!"

Luo Dingran was slightly stunned when he heard this, but he quickly understood what Cheng Zongyang meant.

This is relying on the information gap and the convenience of controlling the location channels, so that they can only earn cultivation resources by working in Yufeng Fairy City through martial arts, and contribute to the prosperity of the fairy city.

In addition, it can also prevent some people with good qualifications from practicing immortal cultivation techniques too quickly, which would cause trouble in the Immortal City.

The most important thing is that there is not much spiritual energy in the fairy city. Once the immortal cultivators appear, it will not be enough for them to absorb.

Cheng Zongyang continued, "Daliang relies on Su Wunian who has broken through the innate realm and entered the extraordinary realm. He wants to retake the four prefectures again. Although it is possible, Su Wunian can't hold on for long. First, he has no demon pills or spiritual energy to replenish, and second, he has no skills. He has no idea how to practice in the future. Therefore, sooner or later, he will come to Yufeng Immortal City."

After that, Cheng Zongyang didn't say much more about this matter. He came to the excavation site and asked, "How is the excavation going? Have you found anything?"

Luo Dingran pointed to a temporary wooden shed and said, "Sir, the things we have dug out are all placed over there, but there are not many valuable ones. We don't know the specific information of this ruins yet. The only thing we know is that this mountain is called 'Sanmao Mountain'. So far, we have only dug out some utensils and ordinary daily necessities, but there are also some strange places. You can take a look."

While listening, Cheng Zongyang also walked over there.

Luo Dingran followed and continued, "Through the excavation, there are two initial guesses. One is that this place was originally similar to some sacrificial pits, because many of the items dug out are some daily necessities, such as porcelain, metal utensils, and some coffins.

However, with the subsequent excavation, some house foundations were found. These foundations were houses where people lived, not cemeteries. So the second guess is that it was a village. The latter should be the current situation formed after the landslide.

Of course, these are all speculations, after all, not much has been excavated. It is still impossible to truly understand the specific situation of this place based on these. Even if the place name is identified, it is still the name of Sanmao Mountain, not the name of the village. "

As they spoke, the two of them came to the wooden shed.

Cheng Zongyang looked at the things classified and placed on the wooden shelves, and took a look at them one by one.

Just as Luo Dingran said, they were all ordinary things, many of which were broken. As for the metal utensils, Cheng Zongyang looked at them and was a little puzzled: "Why are they all tripods?"

Cheng Zongyang looked at the seven or eight metal vessels that had been dug out and cleaned with some confusion, but they all had one thing in common, that is, they were all round or square tripods with three or four legs. Although they were large and small, they were basically the same as some of the incense burners used for incense tables in temples.

Luo Dingran said, "This is the strange part I told you about. We have also dug up other metal vessels, but they have all decayed. Only these items are intact. The identification shows that they are just ordinary incense tripods. I asked Ding Xing to translate the words on these tripods."

As he spoke, he took out a booklet from his arms and handed it to Cheng Zongyang: "This is what was copied down and translated by Ding Xing. There is not much content, but these three sentences are imprinted on it."

Cheng Zongyang took it and opened the first page.

"Respect the heavens and ancestors, and pray to the wind god for good weather and good harvests."

"Respect the heavens and ancestors, and pray to the Thunder Lord to bless the six domestic animals and prosper."

"Respect the heavens and ancestors, and pray to the Rain God for a good harvest."

Cheng Zongyang frowned as he read these three sentences.

Until now, he still cannot understand the situation of the wilderness world. However, the ruins unearthed from the Sanmao Mountain gave him this strange incense tripod.

Cheng Zongyang said, "If this is a village, and every household has this kind of incense burner, then it means that the villagers believe in this immortal cultivator of wind, rain and thunder, right? Then is there a temple?"

Luo Dingran shook his head slightly: "I don't know about this, but I have asked the mole to cooperate with the excavation. Let's go deep underground to see if there are any other discoveries. We can also find out the area of ​​this place..."

"Manager Luo, sir!"

At this moment, before Luo Dingran could finish his words, a soul slave immediately shouted at them at the excavation site.

Cheng Zongyang and Luo Dingran both turned their heads to look, only to see the soul slave leading the mole beast out of a hole in the ground, covered in mud.

"What's the matter?" The two of them went over immediately and Luo Dingran asked.

"Reporting to the lord, the steward, I found an underground space below, but it seems to be blocked by something and I can't get in." Hearing this, Cheng Zongyang and Luo Dingran looked at each other, and the former asked: "Even the mole beast can't dig in?"

The soul slave shook his head: "It's not a wall, but an invisible object blocking it."

"Formation!" Cheng Zongyang and Luo Dingran said at the same time.

Cheng Zongyang immediately said: "Wide the passage!"

Following Cheng Zongyang's order, the soul slaves who were digging in other places put down their work and began to focus on widening the underground passage.

Luo Dingran went back immediately and brought Taoist Luo with him.

In terms of knowledge and research on formations, Taoist Luo has the most profound understanding among all these soul slaves.

Whether it was the books on formations purchased from the market hut or from the Ice and Fire Cultivation World, they filled a bookshelf with several layers. As for whether the situation of the underground formation could be studied, that was a question for the future.

"Finally, I came across something related to immortal cultivators." Cheng Zongyang murmured.

Luo Dingran also nodded in agreement: "The fact that the formation still exists today means that it operates by drawing energy from underground."

With the mole beast around, digging a hole doesn't take much time at all. However, in order to reveal the formation for research, large-scale development is carried out without caring about destroying the ruins.

Two hours later, an underground space covering an area of ​​approximately 200 square meters was cleared, and an invisible barrier was revealed because of the soil.

Cheng Zongyang, Luo Dingran and Luo Daoren came to the front.

The other soul slaves stood back and watched.

Cheng Zongyang threw an appraisal without hesitation.

-

【Earth Array】

Introduction: It uses the earth-based protective array that is set up by drawing on the power of the earth veins. As long as the external force does not destroy it, the materials do not decay, and the power of the earth veins does not dry up, it can operate for a long time without breaking.

Grade: Grade 3

-

Cheng Zongyang's eyes lit up after reading the simple introduction. He never thought it would be a third-grade protective magic array.

According to the definition of the Ice and Fire Immortal Cultivation World, the third-grade array is already a golden elixir-level array, which can block the golden elixir array. What needs a third-grade array to protect?

"The same formation again?" Luo Dingran suddenly frowned, surprised. But the next moment, he noticed inside and couldn't help but remind Cheng Zongyang. "Sir, please look inside."

Cheng Zongyang raised his head, shifted his attention away from the formation, and looked inside.

However, he saw that there was actually a small temple inside, but the things inside the temple were scattered all over the place. Only the three clay statues in the small hall were standing steadily.

Looking at the surrounding situation, Luo Dingran also had a general guess: "External forces cannot destroy the inside, but it is a mess. Sir, could it be that the earth dragon turned over and caused the landslide, thus burying the village and the temple's things scattered, but it was protected by the formation and could not be covered by mud and rocks?"

Cheng Zongyang shook his head slightly: "It's not important." Then he looked at Luo Daoren: "Can you open it?"

Luo Daoist, who was studying the formation, heard this and said with a wry smile: "Sir, I am currently only studying the first-grade formation, and I am still far from the third-grade."

Cheng Zongyang had expected this and said with a smile, "Just do your best."

Then he called the mole and asked it, "Can we dig it in from the ground?"

Afraid that Mei Mole didn't understand, he gestured with his hands.

But the beautiful mole had been eating the Red Blood Pill for so long that its intelligence was no longer what it used to be. In addition, Cheng Zongyang was its master, so it immediately understood what he meant. It shook its head and gestured, indicating that there was an obstruction underground and it could not dig in.

"Okay." Cheng Zongyang was helpless, then looked at Luo Dingran again: "I remember buying a formation-breaking talisman in the Ice and Fire Cultivation World, right? Where did you put it?"

Luo Dingran asked doubtfully, "Sir, that is a second-grade array-breaking talisman. It seems useless against this third-grade one, right?"

Cheng Zongyang was speechless. When he first bought the Breaking Formation Talisman, he saw it when he was buying some talismans at a stall of casual cultivators in the West District. A second-grade Breaking Formation Talisman was worth fifteen spirit stones, which was 50% more expensive than the average second-grade talisman. But it could break all second-grade magic arrays, so he bought it.

But I never expected that when I wanted to use it, I found that the quality was not good enough.

"I'll go and buy one." Luo Dingran said.

Cheng Zongyang nodded. This was the only way.

Luo Dingran left, and Cheng Zongyang looked at Taoist Luo. He saw that he was watching the formation very attentively, and from time to time he would touch the formation with something, and then sense the energy changes of the ground veins.

His talent is of this kind, so he is naturally more sensitive.

Cheng Zongyang didn't disturb him. For him, more exposure to this kind of formation would help him gain experience.

Cheng Zongyang asked his men to continue cleaning up the surroundings with this formation as the center.

Another hour passed before Luo Dingran came back with a golden talisman.

"How much did it cost?" Cheng Zongyang asked.

"If compared with the Ice and Fire Immortal Cultivation World, it is a little more expensive, 100 points." Luo Dingran said.

Cheng Zongyang nodded, then took the talisman and came to Taoist Luo's side and asked, "I'm ready to break the formation. What have you figured out?"

Upon hearing this, Taoist Luo quickly stood up from the ground, not caring about his muddy pants, and said excitedly:
"Sir, can you give me another half hour? I can already sense how the earth vein energy works. As long as I record it, I can do research later, try to understand its principles, and then try to restore it."

Hearing this, Cheng Zongyang smiled and said, "Of course. I'll give you half an hour."

As long as it can improve the lives of these high-level soul slaves, he will not be stingy.

Just like Luo Dingran, he also practiced the Xiantian Yiqi Jue again and has now reached the fifth level.

This speed was not slow, and it exceeded his level before he wasted his time.

While waiting, Cheng Zongyang also planned to let Luo Dingran continue to purchase soul crystals, and it was time to prepare to continue to expand the number of soul slaves.

As the area expands, the number of soul slaves will inevitably increase. And the war in the four prefectures has started again, and it is unknown how many people have died. This is also the best time to collect.

Luo Dingran naturally agreed to take charge of it.
