Seeing that Chu Yang didn't care, Xuanzhen breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly asked the little Taoist priest to come forward and apologize.

"It's not a big deal. I came today because I have important matters to see Taoist Master Ling Yun. Is he in the observation room?" Chu Yang asked.

"Yes, senior, wait a moment, I have asked the disciple to ask for the master."

Xuanzhen said hurriedly.

"That's too bad. It's my turn to see Taoist Master Ling Yun. Why don't we go in first?"

Chu Yang couldn't help but smile bitterly. Logically speaking, Ling Yunzi was still his senior. Wei Zixi made such a fuss, causing Fuyun Temple to mobilize a large number of troops, and Ling Yunzi had to come to greet him in person. This was a bit unreasonable, so it was better to take the initiative to pay him a visit.

At Chu Yang's insistence, the group had no choice but to enter the Taoist temple.

Not long after he left, Chu Yang looked up and saw a few more people coming towards him. The leader was Ling Yunzi, who was an immortal.

"Chu Yang has met the Taoist Master."

Seeing Taoist Master Ling Yun personally greeting him, Chu Yang couldn't help but took the initiative to salute him.

In recent months, Fuyun Temple has become very famous and has become the largest temple in the south of the Yangtze River. It has even spread a little prestige in other provinces. As the master of the temple, Ling Yunzi's status in the Taoist sect has grown rapidly, and he has become the leader of the Taoist sect in the south of the Yangtze River. The character is very majestic.

Of course, Fuyun Temple is what it is today, thanks to its cooperation with Chu Yang, so when I heard that he was coming, Taoist Master Lingyun stopped practicing elixirs, threw down the medicinal materials and left the elixir room.

Nowadays, Chu Yang is no longer the rookie he was before. He must treat a master of the Golden Core stage with courtesy. Ling Yunzi showed his solemnity and came to greet him in person. Fortunately, Chu Yang advanced to the Golden Core stage without any airs. , and even took the initiative to greet him.

"Young friend Chu, you don't have to be so polite. You're really trying to break the old ways."

Ling Yunzi hurriedly held Chu Yang up, looking ashamed.

"That's right. I haven't seen you for a few days. The Taoist master has improved a lot. It seems that he is ready to advance, right?"

Ling Yunzi was in the late stage of foundation building a few months ago. With the help of a large number of pills, he has now reached the peak of foundation building and is probably not far from a breakthrough.

"Little friend Chu has a keen eye. The old Taoist has indeed been preparing recently, but he has been unable to find a way. I'm afraid a breakthrough is still far away."

"It all depends on people. Taoist priest has great blessings. I guess the opportunity comes, and it's just a matter of smooth flow."

Chu Yang responded with a smile and walked side by side towards the back of the view with Taoist Master Ling Yun.

As early as the conversation between the two, the pilgrims in the audience started talking.

Chu Yang was only in his twenties, but he walked side by side with Taoist priest Ling Yun, but Taoist priest Ling Yun looked respectful and treated Chu Yang like an elder.

This scene surprised the pilgrims. Many wanted to come forward to inquire, but unfortunately they were stopped by the Taoist disciples.

Today Chu Yang came to discuss something. Wei Zixi couldn't understand and must be bored, so Chu Yang asked the little Taoist priest from before to take her to the temple to offer incense, while he and Ling Yunzi went to the teahouse.

After ordering his disciples to serve tea, Taoist Master Ling Yun asked directly: "Little friend Chu, you came to Fuyun Temple today, you must have something to do, right?"

Chu Yang took a sip of tea, nodded and said, "Indeed, I came here specifically to see the Taoist Master today."

"My little friend, if something happens, it's okay to say it. I, Fuyun Guan, will always follow your lead." Taoist Master Ling Yun said sternly without even thinking about it.

"Taoist Priest, you're welcome. We are allies. How can we be so different from each other?"

Chu Yang waved his hand and said straight to the point: "I came here today to learn about the current situation of the elixirs in circulation. The Taoist priest should know something about it, right?"

"As for the elixirs circulating in the market, besides those produced by us, there are many types with different effects. Pindao has also compared some of them and feels that these elixirs are far different from those we refine. If it were not for the sales The price is cheap, there is no market for those pills at all," Taoist priest Ling Yun said.

"Where did those pills flow into the Jiangnan area?" Chu Yang asked curiously.

"There are people from Yun Province, Hu Province, and Liao Province. The places are different. They all come in through illegal channels."

In today's spiritual circles, the market for elixirs is very monopolized. In the Jiangnan region, except for the Jiang family, which can legitimately sell various elixirs, anyone else selling elixirs is regarded as hostile. Therefore, elixirs from other provinces want to be circulated in the Jiangnan area. , we must first discuss with the Jiang family and use the Jiang family’s channels.

Of course, there must be a commission, so the sales cost of elixirs from other provinces will be much higher, so many people are opportunistic and use various methods to smuggle in elixirs from other provinces and sell them to earn some price differences.

This situation occurs all over the country. Not only is the Jiang family engaged in trade protectionism, but the spiritual forces in other regions will also suppress elixirs coming from other provinces to improve the competitiveness of local elixirs, lest the supply of elixirs be restricted by others in the long run. .

After understanding this, Chu Yang continued to ask: "Does the Taoist Master know if there are foundation-building elixirs for sale in the practice world today?"

"Foundation-building elixir?"

Ling Yunzi shook his head: "This is rare. Foundation-building elixirs are extremely precious. They are usually used by hidden sects to replenish elixir resources and then trade such elixirs. These elixirs basically fall into the hands of those practicing In the hands of the aristocratic family, there is basically no circulation.”

"In other words, it is difficult to buy it no matter where you are?"

Chu Yang's eyes lit up.

"Yes, the poor Taoist can reach the peak of Tao Foundation Building so quickly, thanks to the Foundation Building Pill provided by my friend, otherwise I don't know when he will be able to reach it."

Chu Yang said thoughtfully: "If we can develop the foundation-building elixir and sell it to other provinces, we should be able to take the initiative and not be hindered by the local cultivation forces, right?"

Taoist Master Ling Yun was slightly startled, then nodded and said: "That's natural. There are no foundation-building elixirs for sale anywhere now. It's hard to find a single pill. If we had foundation-building elixirs, it would be a seller's market. How dare those cultivating forces dare to It’s embarrassing, it’s better if they don’t ask us to sell it to them.”

"That's good."

Chu Yang mused: "Now that our elixirs have occupied Jiangnan, we should pursue the victory and penetrate into the foreign elixir market to expand our influence. Since the local forces will monopolize the market, then we can use the foundation-building elixirs to pry open the market." Their protective barrier is to use foundation-building elixirs to bind the local cultivation forces with us!"

"Isn't this too rash?"

Taoist priest Ling Yun calmly analyzed: "If word spreads that we can refine foundation-building elixirs, it might arouse other people's evil intentions. Also, we have already taken root in Jiangnan, so there is no need to continue to expand. This The foundation-building elixir has a great impact, and it may disrupt the practice world, which will cause trouble in the future.”

"I have naturally considered this. Nowadays, the recovery of spiritual energy is accelerating, and the practice world is turbulent. It can be foreseen that earth-shaking changes will definitely occur in the near future. We must not settle for a while. We must prepare for rainy days and prepare a response as soon as possible to avoid the influence of major practice forces. In a fight, we can only be the opponent's pawns. As long as we take the initiative, even if we don't participate in the dispute, we can at least protect ourselves." Chu Yang said sternly.
