Living in the world of cultivation

"Beiqiong Immortal City" is located in the central region of Chixiatian, which is also the area with the most developed spiritual resources.

In the mountains not far from the city, the mountain gate of "Beiqiong Immortal Sect", one of the ten great immortal sects in Chixiatian, is located.

With "Beiqiong Immortal City" as the center, the area within hundreds of thousands of miles is the sphere of influence of Beiqiong Immortal Sect.

In this area, there are also hundreds of large and small cultivation families, all of which are vassals of Beiqiong Immortal Sect.

Beiqiong Fu Sect is good at making arrays, and most of the disciples in the sect are majoring in arrays, which also makes the array skills of the cultivation families within the sphere of influence of the sect good.

In the evening, the sun sets.

In the distance, a blood-red sun is slowly setting in the west, and the blood-like glow almost covers half of the sky.

As soon as Su Fan stepped down from the flying boat, he immediately felt a clamor coming towards him.

In front of him was a large square with bustling crowds everywhere, which seemed extremely lively.

The city wall in the distance, hidden in the twilight, is the destination of his trip, "Beiqiong Xiancheng".

According to the information from the "Demon House", this is the first stop of the route he has planned.

Of course, don't even think about Beiqiong Xianzong, he is already a Yuanying cultivator, they will definitely not accept him.

However, there are several cultivation families nearby with good foundations, and the inheritance of formations is relatively long, and these families recruit worshippers all year round, so you can give it a try.

Su Fan followed the dense flow of people out of the square and then walked on the street.

"Beiqiong Xiancheng" is very large, with wide streets and a constant flow of people. Most of the cultivators on the street are in the Jindan realm, and there are also many Yuanying.

It is rare to see Qi training cultivators, even the guys in the shops on both sides of the street are in the foundation building stage.

Su Fan couldn't help but sigh, it is worthy of being a super star field.

There are really Jindan everywhere, and Yuanying is as numerous as dogs.

It was almost dark, and the restaurants on both sides of the street were full of customers, and even the halls were almost full.

Su Fan randomly found a restaurant and walked in. A waiter in the foundation-building stage saw him and hurriedly greeted him with a smile.

"Senior, how many people are there..."

Even though he was facing a Yuanying cultivator, he was only respectful, but not at all humble.

"It's just me, do you have a private room..."

After hearing Su Fan's words, the waiter showed a trace of embarrassment.

"Senior, please forgive me, the private rooms have been booked..."

"Is there a seat by the window..."

"Senior, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't find a seat by the window at this time, I will help you find a quiet seat..."

Seeing Su Fan nod, he respectfully led Su Fan to an empty seat, and then brought a pot of spiritual tea.

"Senior, have a cup of tea first, and call me when you order..."

Seeing that the waiter went to greet others again, Su Fan looked around and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This is a quiet place.

He was in the middle of the hotel lobby, and the front, back, left and right seats were full of people, making it very noisy.

And most of the people in the store were Yuanying cultivators, and no one cared about the noisy environment in the store.

Damn, the Yuanying cultivators of Chixiatian are really worthless.

Su Fan took a sip of the teacup and almost spit it out.

What kind of crappy tea is this...

Su Fan was too lazy to change places. It was estimated that at this time, all the hotels in the city were similar.

Seeing a palm-sized miniature talisman array on the side of the table, he tried to input a trace of spiritual energy, and a light curtain suddenly popped up on the talisman array.

The light curtain kept refreshing the store's signature spiritual dishes, and it was illustrated and made extremely beautifully.

This is...

In the previous life, technology was productivity. In this world of cultivation, Taoism is also the driving force for social progress.

However, the prices in Beiqiong Xiancheng are too high.

It is estimated that a meal in this restaurant would cost hundreds of high-level spirit stones.

This restaurant is definitely not a luxurious place. There are many such restaurants on both sides of the streets in the city.

This also refreshed Su Fan's cognition again.

Originally, I thought that the prices in Longshi Immortal City were high enough, but when I arrived in the central area of ​​​​Chixiatian, the prices increased several times.

Okay, since I'm here, I'll just have a bite.

Anyway, he doesn't lack those spiritual stones.

At this time, a table next to him was paying the bill, and a cultivator took out a jade talisman and drew it on the micro-talisman array on the table, and then a pleasant female voice came.

"Thank you for visiting our store, welcome to come again next time..."

Looking at the backs of several cultivators leaving, Su Fan was stunned.

Beiqiong Immortal City is too advanced, and cashless consumption is already possible.

This scene just now also made Su Fan recall some scenes in his previous life, and he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Although he was doing well in the world of cultivation, he still missed the days when he lay flat in his previous life.

After reminiscing for a while, Su Fan shook his head and drove away some images in his mind.

He stretched out his hand and tapped on the light screen of the micro array plate a few times, and asked for some of the signature spiritual vegetables of the store.

After a while, several spiritual vegetables were served.

Although the prices here are extremely expensive, the service is mediocre, and the spiritual tea is damn hard to drink, the taste of the spiritual food is still acceptable.

Su Fan ate while listening to the chats of the monks around him.

But most of the monks in the hall were chatting, and he couldn't hear anything useful at all, which made him a little disappointed.

At this time, a table of monks behind Su Fan talked about the topic that interested him.

"Have you heard that the Shen family is preparing to recruit worshippers? Don't you want to give it a try..."

"Which Shen family? It can't be the Shen family of Songhe Immortal Venerable..."

"Nonsense, if it's another family, I'm not going to tell you shit..."

"When will the Shen family recruit? I have to give it a try. I almost passed last time..."

Su Fan's heart moved when he heard this. The intelligence said that this Shen family was there.

He finished his meal calmly, and then called the waiter over.

"Senior, you want to pay the bill..."

Su Fan nodded and asked, "Just now I saw someone pay the bill with a jade talisman..."

The waiter smiled and said, "Senior, this is your first time in the Central Region. You can find a bank in the city and get a Lingshi jade talisman. It can be used in any immortal city in the Central Region..."

Well, this is already connected to the Internet.

Su Fan paid the bill, then left the restaurant, and then found a bank on the street to get a Lingshi jade talisman.

It just so happened that he had too many low-level spirit stones, so he simply stored all the spirit stones below the middle level in the jade talisman.

Damn, these silver houses have no shame.

When using spirit stone jade talismans to consume in various places, they actually charge a 1% handling fee.

Su Fan has figured it out. No matter where you are, all crows are the same.

At this time, the sky has completely darkened, but after the night falls in Beiqiong Xiancheng, the city is still very lively and the lights are as bright as day.

The streets are crowded with people, and shops are lined up on both sides.

The streets are also full of various colored lights, which complement the lights on the shop signs, reflecting the prosperity of the city.

Su Fan kept walking on the street with his hands behind his back, and he had the illusion of returning to the pedestrian street in his previous life.

The most famous products in Beiqiong Xiancheng are various formations. If the cultivators in the whole Chixiatian need formations, they will basically purchase them here.

Su Fan entered a few shops at random and asked about the prices.

What surprised him was that the formations sold in the shops of Beiqiong Xiancheng were absolutely good quality and cheap compared to the prices of goods in Chixiatian.

It might be because the formations here were too prosperous, to put it bluntly, it was too expensive.

Moreover, he saw the Star Pavilion in the city and went in for a walk.

He found that apart from the formations, the prices of other goods were like the Star Pavilion in two dimensions compared to the original Luofeng Xiancheng.

Su Fan found an inn in the city to spend the night and left Beiqiong Xiancheng early the next morning.

He drove the ghost crow all the way north, flew for about two days, and came to a market.

This market is called "Haoshanfang", which is the property of the Shen family, a cultivation family, and nearby is the "Shenjiabao" where the main family of the Shen family is located.

Because the news that the Shen family recruited offerings has spread among the casual cultivators, "Haoshanfang" has been very lively these days.

All the Yuanying cultivators who came from all over the place gathered here, making it difficult to find a room in the entire market.

Because of the presence of the ancestor Songhe Xianzun, and the deep heritage of the formation, the Shen family can be ranked in the top ten among the cultivation families near Beiqiong Xianzong.

Therefore, every time the Shen family recruits worshippers, it will attract countless Nascent Soul cultivators.

Su Fan consulted the market about the recruitment of worshippers, but the result made him extremely disappointed.

Because the standard for the Shen family to recruit worshippers is that the threshold must be a high-level formation master, this alone blocked Su Fan from the door.

Although Su Fan has been immersed in the formation of the Wumen for many years, when it comes to formation, the Xianzong can beat the Wumen by more than ten streets.

In the entire Chixiatian, Beiqiong Xianzong is also the most prosperous area of ​​formation.

There are too many casual cultivators of Nascent Soul who are mainly practicing formation in the sphere of influence of Beiqiong Xianzong, and Su Fan has no chance to compete with them.

Moreover, he dare not expose the things of the Wumen at all. Who knows what Chixiatian’s attitude towards the Wumen is.

Just when Su Fan was about to leave Haoshanfang, he suddenly saw a light curtain standing at the entrance of the market, and many casual cultivators gathered below to apply for the job.

He also went over and saw that the light curtain was constantly refreshing more than a dozen bounty tasks.

Su Fan asked the cultivators around him and found out that these tasks were issued by the Shen family. As long as one of them was completed, he could become a worshiper of the Shen family.

However, none of the tasks on the light curtain were simple.

Either it was to find a rare material for a formation, or to provide information about some ancient broken formations, at least it was too difficult for Su Fan.

It was not until he heard the discussion of the cultivators next to him that he understood what was going on.

It turned out that these dozen tasks on the light curtain had been hanging here for who knows how many years, and no one had been able to complete any of them.

No casual cultivators who had been hanging around in the local area for many years had completed these tasks, and he, a newcomer, had even less hope.

Su Fan sighed, it seemed that there was no hope for him to join the Shen family.

Thinking of this, he was about to turn around and leave when he heard the people around him shouting at the same time.

"Look, the Shen family has issued a new task..."

Su Fan turned around quickly and saw that all the tasks previously issued on the light screen had disappeared, leaving only one task.

"Shen Zhongying, the eldest son of the third branch of the Shen family, has the cultivation level of the early Nascent Soul, and disappeared three days ago..."

Dozens of words appeared on the light screen, all of which were various information about Shen Zhongying, and the place where he last appeared.

This task was obviously issued urgently. The soul lamp of the eldest son of the third branch of the Shen family should have suddenly gone out.

The Shen family was also anxious. As long as someone found out the cause of Shen Zhongying's death, not only could they get a generous reward, but they could also directly join the Shen family as a worshiper.

Su Fan's heart moved. This is possible.

To be honest, this kind of task is quite difficult.

But for Su Fan, a demon cultivator, finding people is his strong point.

As long as he can get a trace of Shen Zhongying's blood, with the various secret techniques of the Demon Sect's Blood Path, the success rate is still very high.

Thinking of this, Su Fan turned around and wanted to leave, and found that more than half of the Yuanying cultivators under the light curtain had left.

It seems that not only he is interested in this task, but other casual cultivators who came to apply for the job also have the same idea.

All of these people can't wait to rush to the place where Shen Zhongying disappeared last, hoping to find some clues there.

Su Fan did not leave immediately, but came to the Shen family's residence in the market.

Because something happened at home, the atmosphere in the Shen family's residence was quite depressing.

The Yuanying cultivators in the family may have all been sent out, and only one Jindan realm cultivator was left in the residence.

The other party frowned when he saw Su Fan.

"Senior, what can I do for you..."

"I want to take the task you just issued..."

After hearing Su Fan's words, the other party was obviously stunned.

"Senior, the task that the family just issued can be taken by anyone, without reporting to the family..."

Su Fan smiled and said, "I have a secret technique that can help me complete this task, but it requires a trace of Fellow Daoist Shen's breath or blood..."

The other party immediately became energetic after hearing this, and hurriedly said, "Senior, please wait..."

After he finished speaking, he walked to the side, took out a communication array disk and contacted the family's senior management.

After a while, the Shen family Jindan cultivator put away the communication array disk and walked to Su Fan's side.

"I have already contacted the family, and the blood of the fourth uncle will be delivered in a while..."

After speaking, the other party waved his hand and said politely: "Senior, I am Shen Fang from the fourth room of the Shen family. You should wait inside..."

Su Fan followed him to a room inside, and the two sat cross-legged. Shen Fang brewed a pot of spiritual tea for him, and then poured him a cup.

"Senior is also here to apply for the Shen family's offering..."

Su Fan nodded, then took the cup of spiritual tea handed over by the other party, and then took a sip gently.

"I hope the senior can find the fourth uncle, and our Shen family will definitely reward him..."

What the hell, I guess he has no bones left.

"Don't worry, I will do my best..."

After a while, two foundation-building cultivators from the Shen family came in panting from outside.

Shen Fang quickly stood up from the ground, took a jade bottle from the two, and handed it to Su Fan.

"Senior, here is a drop of Fourth Uncle's blood..."

Su Fan took the jade bottle, opened the lid, and nodded.

"The blood is a little less, but it's almost enough..."

After he said that, he put the jade bottle into the ring, then turned around and left the abode.
