hand them over to Che Da and Che Er. It's that simple," Lu Xiaodao said. 。Although Che Da and Che Er are quite capable, if they attract the attention of someone with malicious intentions, they could e...Lu Xia Tian and Peng Dayu's cultivation levels were at the bottom of the team. Most of the others had already reached the seventh or even eighth level of Qi Refining, all being cultivators in the later stage of Qi Refining. Even when performing the Wind-Riding Technique, they struggled to keep up. If it weren't for Yu Bao noticing and deliberately slowing down, the two would have fallen behind by now.

"Since I'm a few years older than you, I'll call you Junior Brother Lu. Junior Brother Lu, it seems like we need to hurry up and cultivate, otherwise, we'll fall behind the other senior brothers." Peng Da used while on the road, said to Lu Xia Tian, he was a chatterbox, but the accompanying senior brothers and sisters ignored him, Peng Da used only to find Lu Xia Tian.

“With just your two talents, no matter how hard you try, it'll be useless.” The tallest one, Liu Wu, turned his head and let out a sneer.

Peng Dagang blushed and glared, too embarrassed to retort.

Lu Xia Tian's heart turned cold, and he remained silent as well.

After dashing over a hundred miles, the disciples arrived at a small courtyard under Yu Bao's lead.

“Alright, you may go in now. There’s a senior named Wang who manages the housing for disciples of Qinglian Peak. As newcomers, you will also need to choose a place to reside. Remember, when choosing a location, try to be as close to a water source as possible. Otherwise, after cultivating spirit fields, watering the spiritual herbs will be a big problem. If you have to go back and forth to fetch water, it will take several hours each time. Over time, it will inevitably affect your cultivation. Also, it’s best to choose a place with abundant spiritual energy. However, which good places are available is only known by Senior Wang who is in charge of registration. If you want to live in a better location, give Senior Wang three or five spirit stones, and he will tell you. Go now, I will be at the previous welcoming bamboo hut. Within three days, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me. After three days, I won’t be responsible anymore. Oh, by the way, Lu Xiaoteng, you go first. Arrange your accommodation, and then come with me to see Master Qian.”

Since he had entered Lingxiao Palace, there were some things Lu Xia Tian couldn't avoid. Following the instructions, he walked into the courtyard. In the spacious courtyard, a chubby cultivator was napping on a stone chair, with drool still dripping from his mouth.

Lu Xia Tian coughed lightly, "May I ask if this is Wang Shixiong"

The fat monk suddenly woke up, sheepishly wiped the saliva from his mouth, sat up, and saw that Lu Xiaoteng was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining. His brows furrowed, putting on a stern expression, he said, “Hmm, what’s the matter”

"Greetings, Master Wang. I am Lu Xia Tian, a new disciple who has just arrived. Brother Yu from the Reception Hall brought me here and I would like to ask for a place to reside." Lu Xia Tian felt it inappropriate to be too frugal in this situation, so he slipped three spirit stones into the plump cultivator's hand.

"I see. Well, what are your requirements for a dwelling For example, easy access to spirit fields, abundant spiritual energy, or any other specific needs" Wang Shixiong received the spirit stones and his expression brightened slightly as he spoke.

“I'm rather introverted and prefer quiet places. I enjoy living alone.”

Lu Xia Tian considered this for a moment. According to Yu Bao's introduction, for a cultivator, focusing on the future was very important. Most newly inducted disciples would cultivate several spirit fields, planting seeds of various age-grade spirit herbs. Some took one year to grow, others three, five, or even decades. The older the age-grade, the more precious it became. When harvested, they were worth a considerable amount of spirit stones. Furthermore, when choosing their residence, they would generally opt for places with relatively abundant spiritual energy, which was beneficial for daily cultivation.

However, Lu Xiaoteng had his own reasons. Although there were many spirit stones inside the barrier, others couldn't see them. But he needed to feed the ice silkworm behind him, try to hatch the boundary worm, and also need a large amount of alchemy. If it fell into the eyes of those with ulterior motives, they would inevitably suspect him. After all, an ordinary Qi refining mid-stage cultivator wouldn't have so many spirit herbs. Making progress too quickly would also attract attention. It's better to live alone on the side and keep things quiet.

"Places with relatively abundant spiritual energy are usually more popular. Only desolate places with thin spiritual energy are deserted, so you need to think it through carefully." For the sake of the three spirit stones, Wang Shidi added a reminder.

"Thank you, senior brother, for reminding me. I'm of mediocre aptitude and my spiritual energy is rather thin, so it won't make much of a difference," Lu Xiaodao said.

“Fine then, this scroll lists all the spiritual lands within our Qinglei Peak region. The red dots indicate areas where cultivators are relatively concentrated, while blank areas are currently uninhabited. Choose one that suits you.”

Wang Shixiong nodded, the two were unrelated, he had already reminded the other party. As for whether the other party listened or not, it was beyond his concern. If things went badly and Lu Xiaottian wanted to change places later, he would still have to stuff him with a few spirit stones.

The forest is big enough to house all sorts of birds. While cultivators like Lu Xiaitian who dislike interacting with others are not common, they are certainly not unique cases. There are even some unscrupulous cultivators who prefer to set up their dwellings near female cultivators, employing the tactic of "being close to the water tower first gets the moon."

Lu Xia Tian, following his instincts, chose a desolate mountain covered in bamboo forest. This kind of place was extremely unfavorable for cultivating spirit fields and practicing cultivation. However, it was sparsely populated, and chopping down the bamboo forest to burn into charcoal could be used for alchemy.

As Lu Xiaitian left, he saw Wang Shidi circling the spot he had just chosen, indicating that someone had already settled there.

“Lu Shidi, you're finally out. I bet Uncle Qian has been waiting a long time. Let's go see him now. Uncle Qian's temper isn't very good, and if he gets angry, the two of us will be in trouble.” Yu Bao saw Lu Xiaoteng come out and his eyes lit up. He pulled Lu Xiaoteng aside and whispered.

Lu Xia Tian frowned and asked, "How come Qian Shi Shu is a cultivator of the Foundation Establishment stage, wouldn't he stoop to attacking us mere Qi Refining cultivators"

Yu Bao laughed and said, "That's not true. We don't have the weight to make Master Luo take action. However, I don't know how many Qi Refining disciples below are hoping to curry favor with the Foundation Establishment seniors. Even if those Foundation Establishment seniors don't mean it, others will find ways to trouble you when they know that you have made a Foundation Establishment senior unhappy. They hope that one day, when a Foundation Establishment senior is in a good mood, he will arrange a better job for them, which would be enough for us Qi Refining cultivators to struggle less for ten or twenty years. The job that Wang Fatty did just now was a fat one. He earned dozens of spirit stones every month. If it weren't for him reporting his senior brother's affair with Master Luo's niece, he wouldn't have gotten this lucrative job. In this fairy gate, the factions are complex. I advise my younger brother to be more careful and prudent. A little carelessness, and you will never have a peaceful day."

"Thank you for reminding me, senior brother," Lu Xia Tian said with a start. It seemed the relationships between the disciples of Lingxiao Palace were not as simple as they appeared.

Yu Bao squinted and said, "Don't be so polite. Brother Lu, you are favored by Master Qian. If you get his support in the future, don't forget to help your senior brother out a little and arrange a good job for him. When that time comes, your senior brother will definitely not treat you badly."

Lu Xiaitian chuckled inwardly. This Yu Bao was trying every trick in the book to get information out of him. How could he let the other party succeed He casually said a few words. If Yu Bao knew about Qianshi's possible ulterior motives towards him, he wondered if the other party would still be so enthusiastic now.

“Qianlian Peak may be just one mountain, but it is quite large, and the spiritual energy here is extremely dense. Besides the fact that Elder Qing She has been cultivating in seclusion here for many years, more than a third of the sixty or so foundation-building predecessors on Qianlian Peak have also established their own cave dwellings here. The rest are practicing alone on other peaks with slightly weaker spiritual energy.” Yu Bao introduced excitedly.

> Xian Dan.” Lou Yikong shook his head at this time. They had already collected quite a few Fa Jing leaves, it was time to refine the elixir and expand their achievements. Now that Lu Xia Tian, the fou...
