Lingxiao Immortal Clan

In a blink of an eye, spring and summer passed, and autumn arrived.

This day, early morning.

"Cheng Ping, I left the black-armored turtle behind. You and the black-armored turtle should take good care of Luoxia Mountain. If something unexpected happens, immediately activate the formation in the mountain."

"Also, remember not to leave Lingxiao Mountain at will." Ling Pengyun carefully instructed Ling Chengping.

"Understood, Uncle Pengyun, you and Sister Siyi can go to Jiaomang Lake without worry. I can take good care of Luoxia Mountain." Ling Chengping agreed.

"Yes."

Ling Pengyun nodded lightly, and then called the Fengying Peng in the middle stage of foundation building in the sky to land, and took Yan Siyi to ride this Peng together and left Luoxia Mountain.

Ling Chengping followed behind and returned to the cave here to consolidate the foundation.

A few days later

Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi rode on Fengyingpeng and went to Jiaomang Market first. They found their parents who managed a family store in this market, and their uncle Yang Qiujiang and aunt Zhao Honge who also managed a store of Yang family in this market, and chatted with them.

Because the stores run by their parents, uncle and aunt were doing well, they went to the business after lunch.

Although the Ling family, Yang family and Lingfu Patriarch jointly established the Tianfu Chamber of Commerce, the stores originally opened by the Ling family and Yang family still exist.

Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi also entered Jiaomang Lake next to the market, and went up to the Cangdao Courtyard in the core of the lake "Jiaomang Island", and found Yan Cang who lived there.

Two years later, Yan Cang's complexion became worse, and his old age was quite obvious.

Seeing this, Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi felt a little sad, but they could not change this fact.

After adjusting their mindsets, the couple also chatted with Yan Cang, who had not seen him for a year.

From Yan Cang, a senior member of the Jiaomang Lake branch of Bailing Sect, Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi also learned that another golden elixir monster was killed in the Baiyun Mountains, the largest gathering place for monsters in Yan State, in the past year.

Including this golden elixir monster, three golden elixir monsters have died in the hands of golden elixir cultivators from the five major golden elixir sects in the Baiyun Mountains in the past two years.

And the reason for such achievements is because of Li Congyi, the golden leaf master of the "Li family" of the maple leaf that appeared in Baiyun Market two years ago.

After the ancestor of this golden leaf master Li Congyi won the extraordinary little white scale tiger in Baiyun Market, he rushed to the Baiyun Mountains, the largest gathering place for monsters in Yan State.

He went deep into it and killed the father of the little white scale tiger, a white scale tiger in the late golden elixir stage.

After the death of this tiger, the strength of Baiyun Mountain Range was greatly reduced.

After all, even if there were two hands of Jindan monsters in Baiyun Mountain Range, there might not be many monsters that could reach the late Jindan stage.

The cultivators of the five major sects stationed at the second-level Fiery Iron Ore Vein on the border of Baiyun Mountain Range also took advantage of this opportunity and, under the leadership of the old ancestor of Xuanyang Sect who had reached the perfect Jindan stage, counterattacked the monsters of Baiyun Mountain Range.

Although the Jindan monsters of Baiyun Mountain Range responded in time, a Jindan early stage monster was still killed in that battle, and many Qi training and foundation building monsters were killed and injured.

In this battle, the monsters of Baiyun Mountain Range were not seriously injured.

But the Jindan monsters of Baiyun Mountain Range were more afraid of the cultivators of the five major sects stationed at the Fiery Iron Ore Vein. On weekdays, those Jindan monsters no longer dared to lead the monster group to attack all the Fiery Iron Ore Veins of the five major sects at will.

The monks of the five major sects stationed at the Blazing Iron Mine were not stupid. They took advantage of this good opportunity and used the Blazing Iron Mine at the border of the Baiyun Mountains as their base to continuously expand their territory to the surrounding areas.

When expanding their territory, the monks of the five major sects often clashed with the monsters of the Baiyun Mountains.

With conflicts, there will naturally be casualties. The monks who have the advantage will naturally have the least number of deaths, while the monsters will be beaten back step by step.

The deaths of the three golden elixir monsters that died in the Baiyun Mountains in the past two years were also caused by this.

"Grandpa, have you heard how much territory our five major golden elixir sects of Yan State have expanded in the Baiyun Mountains relying on the Blazing Iron Mine? How many spiritual veins have they occupied?" Ling Pengyun asked curiously.

"It is said that our five major Jindan sects have occupied 50,000 miles of land around the blazing iron vein, which is roughly the size of a state."

"We have occupied nearly 500 first- and second-level spiritual veins."

"It is said that the top leaders of our five major sects in Yan State recently planned to build a market on the second-level high-quality spiritual vein they occupied this time, and use this market to attract our Yan State's independent cultivators as reinforcements."

At this point, Yan Cang's face showed a trace of regret.

"If the Wanshou Zhenren of the Wanshou Sect of our Yan State, or the sect's guardian spirit beast Jinyu Dapeng, could go to the blazing iron vein to garrison, I'm afraid that our five major Jindan sects in Yan State could occupy more land."

"It's a pity that the two Jindan fighters of the Wanshou Sect were restrained by the monster beasts in the Purple Scorpion Ridge, which is adjacent to the Wanshou Sect's territory."

Ling Pengyun was shocked when he heard this.

You know, Bailing Sect currently only has four states, and one state is very large, and it occupies the next state in Baiyun Mountain Range.

From this incident, Ling Pengyun can easily guess that it is only a matter of time before the five major Jindan sects unite to destroy Baiyun Mountain Range.

I am afraid that the opportunity will be in the next hundred-year monster beast chaos.

After all, only during the monster beast chaos can the monster beasts and cultivators occupy each other's territory at will.

If it is an ordinary time, occupying the other party's spiritual veins with a grade of more than three levels will attract the monster beasts in the boundless vast swamp to retaliate.

This move is extremely dangerous.

This was the case when Bailingmen occupied Jiaomang Lake before. Fortunately, the attacking monsters underestimated the strength of Bailingmen and did not expect that Bailingmen's Bailing ancestor had entered the late Jindan realm.

This Jiaomang Lake was guarded by Bailingmen.

Thinking back, Ling Pengyun asked Yan Cang about the situation of his old friends Qin Shi, Xue Chao, and Ye Yu who went to the Chihuo Iron Mine eight years ago.

These three people are all descendants of Bailingmen's high-level officials.

Yan Cang also knew their situation and told him.

"Qin Shi followed his master, Taoist Zhang Yan, and gained a lot of fame and military exploits in the Blazing Iron Mine. A few days ago, the Spirit Talisman Patriarch sent people from the branch with some spiritual objects to visit Qin Shi and Zhang Yan."

"As for Xue Chao and Ye Yu, they are in the rear of the Blazing Iron Mine. Xue Chao does some work of refining spiritual talismans, but he is also very famous, because his spiritual talismans have entered the second-level upper grade, and he has also refined a lot of thunder spiritual talismans, so his reputation is also very great there."

"His Taoist partner Ye Yu follows Xue Chao."

Ling Pengyun heard that the three old friends were doing well, and he couldn't help but feel happy for them.

After all, if the three old friends can get better, they will become his connections in the future.

Over the years, although Qin Shi, Xue Chao, and Ye Yu have made great contributions in the Fiery Iron Mine of Baiyun Mountain Range and have rarely interacted with each other, they specially sent people to deliver precious gifts at the wedding banquet of Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi.

It is enough to see that Qin Shi and the other two have not forgotten the friendship between Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi, at least they are not just nodding acquaintances.

"By the way, Siyi, have you been pregnant recently?" Yan Cang's eyes were full of expectation, looking at Yan Siyi who had never spoken.

Hearing this, Yan Siyi shook her head helplessly. "Grandpa, it's too difficult to get pregnant."

"In that case, take your time." Yan Cang also knew the difficulty of getting pregnant, otherwise his lineage would not have been a single-line inheritance.

Although he wanted to hold his great-grandson in his arms in the last few years of his life, he didn't want to put too much pressure on Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi.

Afterwards, Yan Cang changed the topic and chatted with Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi.

Time passed very quickly during the chat, and after a while, night fell.

Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi's parents Ling Xiaoshun and Yang Qiuyun, as well as uncle Yang Qiujiang and aunt Zhao Honge, who had made an appointment with Ling Pengyun and Yan Siyi, also came to Cangdao Courtyard as scheduled.

In addition, Ling Pengyun also called his cousin Yang Siling from Lingfu Mansion and his younger cousin Yang Siyi, who had been in seclusion for many years to comprehend the alchemy, to come to Cangdao Courtyard to taste the cooking skills of Yan Siyi, the second-level spiritual chef.

As for the nephew Wu Hong, he went out to Jiaomang Lake to hunt monsters in the surrounding areas to improve his combat power through actual combat.

At the dinner table, everyone talked happily.

Among them, the elders talked the most about Yan Siyi's good cooking skills.

The praises of the elders made Yan Siyi very happy today, and she was smiling all the time.

The greatest enjoyment for a cook is to be recognized by the people who eat.

After the meal, everyone sat together and chatted.

From the chat, everyone also learned that Lingfu Patriarch intended to help Yang Sitong.

Yang Sitong had such an opportunity, in addition to the fact that Yang Sitong's sister Yang Siling was the daughter-in-law of Lingfu Patriarch, it also had something to do with his talent in alchemy.

He was only over 40 years old, but he had comprehended the alchemy to the second-level middle-grade realm, which was rare even in the Bailingmen Alchemy Hall.

After all, before entering Bailingmen, Yang Sitong was the alchemy seedling that Pingyun Yang family focused on cultivating, and he was an alchemy genius.

In addition, over the years, his sister Yang Siling spent a lot of resources to help him, so it was normal for him to have such a level in alchemy.

When everyone heard the news, they also congratulated him.

Of course, everyone present was a relative, and they were very close relatives, so they would naturally keep Yang Sitong's secret.

After all, if such news were to be spread, it would be somewhat bad.

…

For the next month, Ling Pengyun and his Taoist partner Yan Siyi had been accompanying his parents and grandfather Yan Cang.

On this day, his nephew Wu Hong also returned from training.

When he learned that his uncle Ling Pengyun had come, he immediately found Ling Pengyun and dragged Ling Pengyun to the Jiaomang Lake to kill monsters.

This was possible because Ling Pengyun treated him very well. With Ling Pengyun protecting him, he could fight against foundation-building monsters at a higher level.

If he encountered danger, Ling Pengyun would immediately support him.

Ling Pengyun had originally planned to take advantage of the good opportunity of visiting Jiaomang Lake in autumn to kill some foundation-building monsters, so he agreed to Wu Hong's request and went to the Jiaomang Lake with Wu Hong to kill monsters.

Because Jiaomang Lake has been occupied by Bailing Sect for more than ten years, Bailing Sect has established a Jiaomang Lake Market outside Jiaomang Lake, attracting many casual cultivators who make a living by killing monsters.

In addition, all the foundation-building monsters in Jiaomang Lake have been killed, which is not a big danger for some powerful foundation-building cultivators.

This has led to a decrease in the number of foundation-building monsters in Jiaomang Lake year by year.

Although many of the Qi training monsters are killed by cultivators every year due to reproduction, they will recover in a short time.

Under such circumstances, it is extremely difficult for Ling Pengyun and Wu Hong, the uncle and nephew, to search for foundation-building monsters in Jiaomang Lake.

After spending ten days wandering around Jiaomang Lake, and even with the help of Feng Yingpeng, they only managed to kill three foundation-building monsters.
