After the blockade of the earth veins in the Southern Wilderness was lifted, Sanquezi and his disciples, who arrived at the fastest speed, spent three full days racing around in the dead silent Star Valley.
There were too few of them, and even with the help of the mountain god Zangtuo, they only found more than 30 spiritual places of various kinds in this star valley with a radius of thousands of miles.
This is not even a quarter of the Star Valley has been explored.
But compared with the population of Sanqueshan, these sacred lands are more than enough for the first phase of the "Xinggu Real Estate".
Anyway, the destruction of Star Valley is still kept secret in the Eastern cultivation circle.
Relying on the "good reputation" that this place has accumulated over the past hundred years, even if someone knew about the evil cultivators, not many people would come here to practice for a while.
"Star Valley is ours!"
On the broad cliff-like shoulders of the Baizhang Mountain God Zangtuo, Lao Jiang sat cross-legged, smoking a cigarette, and said viciously to the three sparrows beside him:
"Anyone who wants to come in to practice must first get permission! If anyone dares to sneak in, I'll break their legs if I catch them! I worked so hard to create this scene, and anyone who dares to come and take advantage of it will be killed!"
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, calm down."
Ma Tishu tried to comfort Jiang Xia first. He twisted his beard and said to his partner:
"Xinggu is definitely ours, and those ownerless spiritual lands are an inexhaustible source of immortal money, but there are three thorny issues now.
First, the matter of the Xinggu land deed.
This cultivator has already asked the mountain god of Zangtuo. This star valley is not part of the Lingshan Mountain Range, so theoretically it is not under the jurisdiction of the mountain god.
Second, we are short-handed.
Even if we send out all the disciples from Sanque Mountain, we cannot block every entrance to the Star Valley. What's more, before we get the title deed, we have no legitimate reason to stop fellow Taoists from traveling in the Star Valley.
Third, and lastly. "
Sanquezi said with some headache:
"Who among those casual cultivators who dare to come to Xinggu doesn't have some skills? I'm afraid my disciples and the mortal warriors under Brother Jiang Daoist's command can't stop them.
In our spiritual practice circle, when it comes to etiquette, everyone is polite, but when things really get turbulent, fists are used to speak.
Without a great monk to keep an eye on us, there will be a lot of hassles in the future."
"Simple."
Jiang Xia blew out a smoke ring, and as Zangtuo carried them to Yandang Pond, he glanced at the misty lake that was getting closer and closer.
Then he turned to Martyrs and said:
“I have some friendship with Lady Yunshui, she is a great spirit in the realm of spiritual cultivation, and she can manifest divine power through fog. She alone can block several roads leading from the Great Wild Forest into the Star Valley.
Most of the Taoist friends who cannot find a place to practice are only in the Cunzhen and Qi training stages. With Lady Yunshui blocking the way, they absolutely cannot get in.
That big monster is also easy to talk to and active.
Asking her to suppress the order in Xinggu is not a big problem. We can also use this as a selling point to promote the safety of our Xinggu real estate and attract those wandering cultivators who live outdoors."
"As for the land deed, it is indeed a bit troublesome."
Jiang Xia pursed his lips and looked to the other side. He saw two monsters, Shi Liu and Hei Yun, sitting face to face, playing the game Wolf Fighting Legend. Judging from Shi Liu's smug expression, they were PKing each other.
It must have abused Black Cloud several times.
The black cloud transformed into a dark human figure, which was now gripping the joystick with gritted teeth. But how could a novice like him be a match for the old pomegranate silver coin?
Before returning to the Southern Wilderness, Pomegranate had already conquered all the mountain monsters that challenged it within a radius of nearly ten thousand miles in the East.
This little mountain monster is really talented in playing games.
"Pomegranate, come here, I want to ask you something."
Jiang Xia shouted, and Shi Liu snorted and proudly threw a few trash words at Hei Yun, which made the monster lose his temper. He put away his game console, turned into a black cat, and jumped into Helya's arms.
The girls were sitting on the other side of Zangtuo's shoulder, chattering away. Shi Rui was also there. This handsome guy could easily blend into the conversation of all the girls.
The little fat boy is more miserable.
The fierce Gu Miao didn't let him go, so he could only stay with Lao Jiang.
"What's up?"
The pomegranate flapped its wings, flew over, and landed on Jiang Xia's shoulder. It was about to go home. It was in a good mood, so it wagged its tail and said:
"What bad idea do you have?"
"Xinggu."
Jiang Xia stroked his chin and asked:
"Has there been any monster activity in Xinggu before? Or has any local tribe lived there?"
"I don't know."
Pomegranate scratched his head and said:
“I have been hanging out in Yandang Pond and have rarely been to Xinggu. You should ask Zangtuo about this. He is a mountain god and his real body is not far from Xinggu.
I know a lot about these local changes. Hey, Zang Tuo, do you know what Jiang Xia asked?"
"Know."
The Baizhang Mountain God, whose body was made of obsidian, blinked his single eye on his face when he heard Shiliu's call, and continued to walk towards Yandang Pond, speaking in a very honest tone.
Answered:
"Star Valley got its name because a meteorite fell here seven hundred years ago. It is located in the branch of the Southern Wilderness Earth Vein, right in the middle of the Earth Vein and the Dark Mountain Range.
The Dark Mountain is unique, with an endless supply of Yin Qi, which blends with the spiritual energy of the earth veins, making the Xinggu spiritual land full of cold and yin energy. "
Zangtuo’s words are very interesting.
It was like the tone of the great god Changshan, paused slowly, and echoed with the sound of the mountains, but the words were clear. It first told Lao Jiang and Sanquezi the history of the formation of Star Valley.
Then I answered their questions.
explain:
"There are no spirits in this place, because it is close to Mingshan Mountain, Qihuang Valley, and the overbearing ghost city. However, there is a tribe that has lived here for more than 200 years. Later, evil cultivators spread everywhere, and when their number became extremely large, the tribe was driven away from their ancestral land.
That tribe is still in the great jungle.
His name was Yangbo.
Worship the great spirit snake."
"Yangboshi?"
San Quezi's eyes lit up, he grabbed the whisk and said to Lao Jiang:
“During the second Fengshan Market, two great witches from the Southern Wilderness came together. One of the witches was the great witch of the Yangbo clan, and she also used the magical medicine from the Secret Treasure House!
He is also a member of our Fengshan Association."
"Ha, don't you think this is a coincidence?"
Lao Jiang suddenly laughed, patted Zangtuo's cold rock neck, and said to Sanquezi:
“The Yangbo clan has been passed down in this Star Valley for more than 200 years, and the gods of Mount Zangtuo are witnesses. This unowned land must be their ancestral land!
It was really pitiful that the Yangbo clan was driven out of their ancestral land by the evil cultivators. Now that the evil cultivators in Xinggu have been destroyed, it is only natural that the clan returns to their ancestral land. As members of the Fengshan Society, we are all friends.
As a friend, we must help each other.
Fellow Daoist Ma, are you here to handle this matter?"
"Well, I accepted it."
San Quezi twisted his long whiskers and said leisurely:
"We will definitely help Great Shaman Yangbo to migrate the tribe back to their ancestral land. That means we will do business on someone else's ancestral land and use their land deeds. Then, a share of the proceeds from the sale of the property will go to the Yangbo family.
This seems legitimate.
This matter is important, so I will not go to Yandang Pond for the time being.
After we finish discussing the matter with Yangbo, I will go and visit him. As for signing the land deeds with the mountain gods, I will trouble Brother Jiang to help you first."
"Well, fellow Taoist, please go and get busy first. Making money is the most important thing."
Jiang Xia bowed to Sanquezi and said:
"Leave the matter of the land deed of the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Mountain to me."
Sanquezi smiled and twirled his beard, then called over his black-feathered eagle. He said goodbye to everyone and Zangtuo, then rode the magic eagle towards the Great Wild Forest.
Watching him leave, Lao Jiang exhaled a puff of smoke and turned back to look at Shi Liu who was playing games on his shoulder.
He said:
"Take me to visit the mountain guardian lady later. We still need her approval for the land deed."
"Tsk, can you hide your little tricks from your mother-in-law?"
Pomegranate snorted disdainfully and said:
"I'm afraid that before you even tell me, mother-in-law will know about those money-making things. Let me tell you, although mother-in-law has a good temper, if you want to use the mountain god's belongings to do business, I'm afraid she will kick you out."
"I'm not doing anything bad."
Jiang Xia stood on Zangtuo's shoulders. The Baizhang Mountain God walked very fast, just like a giant walking across mountains and rivers. The mysterious holy land of spirits, Yandang Pond, was already within reach.
The water vapor in the vast Southern Wilderness before my eyes was floating, just like white clouds connecting the sky and the earth, and it was filled with spiritual energy. Even with my divine sense, I could not see the entire road ahead.
He stretched out his hand and stroked the rich spiritual energy in front of him that had merged with the water vapor and turned into substance. He took a deep breath, and in a refreshed state, he said to Shi Liu:
"By using the body of the mountain god to do business, some of the money earned can be given to the mountain god himself. Anyway, they usually like to sleep for decades.
He doesn't care about having more caves for cultivation.
You see, this wonderful thing of making money without doing anything is something I could never ask for, but now I give it to the mountain gods for free, don’t they want it?
That's pure cash, who wouldn't love it? "
"We monsters don't need immortal money."
Pomegranate curled her lips and retorted.
"But you like games, and Zang Tuo likes them too."
Lao Jiang glanced at the game console in Shi Liu's claws, narrowed his eyes, and said confidently:
"As long as there is something you like, everything is fine!"
"Hold on tight, little monks."
Zang Tuo stepped into the vast swamp surrounded by clouds and mist in front of him. The towering giant, a hundred feet tall, raised his left hand, and the green anaconda wrapped around his arm also roared.
The mountain god said in a muffled voice:
"Yandang Pond is just ahead. I'm going to speed up. It's going to be a bit bumpy."
——
"Wow, what a beautiful place!"
Little Gu Miao stood on the hillside at the edge of Yandang Pond, opened her eyes wide, looked at the holy land of spirits in front of her, and uttered a series of exclamations. Ruyue and Helya beside her also showed expressions of approval.
Shi Rui, dressed in white, took out a magical instrument that could record the scene and held it in his hand, like a camera, to record this beautiful and magnificent scene.
Lao Jiang, Shi Liu, and the little fat boy said goodbye to Zang Tuo behind them.
The obsidian mountain god sent them here, then turned and walked to the other side of the lake. It was assigned the mission of guarding the border of Yandang Pond for fifty years, and now it was time to go back and fulfill its mission.
Most of the mountain gods are honest and steady, and are most suitable for this kind of guarding work. Not only Zangtuo, but there are mountain gods guarding around Yandang Pond.
In the Southern Wilderness, there are more than a hundred sacred mountains and nearly a hundred mountain gods. They usually take turns guarding the holy land.
When they are not on duty, these mountain gods will return to their sacred mountains, transform into mountain peaks again, and sleep soundly. Few mountain gods will take the initiative to leave and patrol around.
This is their nature. They are as steady as real mountains and don't like to wander around.
"How did you become friends with Zang Tuo? Your personalities don't match at all."
Jiang Xia watched the Zangtuo Mountain God leave, then turned back to ask Shi Liu a question. The little mountain monster snorted complacently and said:
"I am doing good things. Eighty years ago, I helped Zang Tuo to send gifts to the God of Yaoshui Mountain. Although I tried to persuade him, the God of Yaoshui Mountain still didn't like Zang Tuo in the end.
But after all, I helped, so we became friends."
"Helping people fall in love?"
Lao Jiang squinted his eyes and gave Shi Liu a thumbs up, saying:
"You guys are really living an interesting life. But I can't imagine what it's like when the two mountains are doing things. It's scary just thinking about it."
"I've already told you that the mating between us spirits and monsters is a spiritual union, not as dirty as the mating between you humans."
Pomegranate said with disdain.
Lao Jiang shrugged, walked forward, stood with Ruyue, and looked at the Yandang Pond in front of them.
“So beautiful.”
He said:
“It’s just… a dream scene.”
