When Ling Xiao said this, everyone understood what Ling Xiao wanted.
"You brat, you really don't get up early if there's no profit." Xiao Songlin smiled and continued, "But what you said is not without reason. You should be paid. Otherwise, everyone would look for you to do free labor. That would be a big loss."
Mu En quickly said, "Xiao Xiao, as long as you concoct the King Jin Pill for me, you can choose from my collection. You can have as much as you want. How about that? Or you can have Mysterious Crystals."
Ling Xiao shook his head and said, "Martial Uncle, you are my Martial Uncle, how can I accept your reward? As long as you gather the materials, Xiao 'er will naturally refine it for you." He then looked at the Elders of Wood Flag Peak and said, "Elders are also seniors of my Wood Flag Peak, so Xiao' er naturally won't ask for too much. As long as you gather the materials, I will definitely help you refine it. But you should know what to do, right?"
One of the elders immediately replied, "Don't worry Elder Ling, we know what to do. As long as Elder Ling can concoct the King Jin Pill for us, you can choose from my collection."
Another elder replied, "That's right. Although we don't have as much as the Peak Lord, we still have a few good things."
"If Elder Ling doesn't like our collection, we can also do things for Elder Ling. As long as Elder Ling commands us, we will definitely do it." Another elder said.
Afterwards, the others also expressed their opinions. They were willing to put down their pride as Kings for a King Jin Pill.
After reaching the King Stage, if one wanted to continue advancing, they would need to accumulate energy for a long time. They would also need to absorb a lot of energy from the outside world. Accumulating energy was only a process, and it didn't mean that it would automatically break through after reaching the King Stage. They still needed to understand how much energy they could control in order to successfully break through.
However, the advantage of the King Jin Pill was that it could increase their control of their energy and allow them to directly break through to the next stage.
Ling Xiao lowered his voice and said, "Elders, don't be anxious. Here are the ingredients for refining the King Advancement Pill. Take out whatever you have, and if you don't, go and collect them as soon as possible. I'll help whoever collects enough first."
With that said, he passed the list in his hand to the Wood Flag Peak Elder.
The elders were like children, constantly fighting to see the grass. It was as if they were afraid that they would suffer a great loss if they didn't see it clearly.
Xiao Songlin, Mu Huai, and Mu En, who were sitting on the upper seats, laughed heartily.
How many years had it been since their Wood Flag Mountain was this lively?
All of this was brought to them by this young man who hadn't even reached the age of 20. They knew that from this moment onwards, this young man would lead their Wooden Flag Body to the peak and overshadow the brilliance of all the other peaks!
Xiao Songlin praised Ling Xiao, "Fortunately, this old man snatched you from Medicine Peak. It's their loss that Medicine Peak gave up on you. From now on, you should stay at Wood Flag Peak and cultivate. If anyone dares to bully you, Grand Master will help you take care of them."
With that, he flew out of the hall alone and returned to his place of seclusion.
Mu Huai saw that his master had left, so he said to everyone, "Alright, Elders and Brothers, when you have gathered the materials, hand them over to Eldest Brother. I will take Xiao Xiao to his cultivation courtyard first." He then left with Ling Xiao.
The cultivation courtyard was a remote area of the Purple Sky Sect. It was located in the southeast of Wood Flag Mountain, and it was a place for true disciples.
The environment here was very elegant. Low level spirit grass and spirit beasts could be seen everywhere, and the spirit energy was very abundant. Just walking here would make people feel happy.
The courtyard that Ling Xiao was assigned to occupied a slightly larger area than the average courtyard. Mu Huai explained to him that Elder Ling Xiao could have been assigned his own mountain as a place to cultivate, but considering that Ling Xiao was still young, he was allowed to stay here with other true disciples for the time being. It was also convenient for young people to communicate with each other.
Ling Xiao was not particular about the place to cultivate. As long as he could get by and the spirit energy was not too scarce, he did not mind cultivating in the cultivation courtyard.
At the same time, Mu Huai also told Ling Xiao that there was a mountain not far from the cultivation courtyard. It was the forbidden area of the Purple Sky Sect, and it was also the place where the Purple Sky Sect had always been prosperous. It was called "Spirit Gathering Mountain". There was a Spirit Gathering Formation there, and it was the place with the most abundant spirit energy in the Purple Sky Sect. One day of cultivation there was equivalent to five days in the outside world. It could be said that the speed of cultivation there was five times faster than in the outside world.
Every true disciple could cultivate there for three months every year, and they could not exceed this time limit. There were nearly three hundred true disciples in the Purple Sky Sect, and they needed to absorb a lot of spirit energy. If they stayed in the Spirit Gathering Formation all year round, it would cause the spirit energy in the Purple Sky Sect to become scarce.
Ling Xiao remembered Mu Huai's words. At the same time, he thought to himself that he had to find a chance to go in and take a look.
Currently, he was already at the peak of the Middle Stage Spirit Master, and he was about to break through to the High Stage Spirit Master in the near future. Therefore, finding a place with abundant spirit energy to cultivate in seclusion was the most ideal.
"Alright, you can cultivate here in the future. There are ten outer disciples and ten servant girls here for you to order around. You can ask them to do some small things. When your martial uncle has gathered enough materials, I'll have him come again," Mu Huai said.
"I understand, Master. When I have time, I'll go to the peak to see you," Ling Xiao replied with a nod.
"Mm, you're such a filial child. I like the gift you gave me very much. Once you refine the Monarch Jin Pill for your Uncle-Masters and the others, our Wooden Flag Peak will be the strongest," Mu Huai praised in satisfaction. He then said, "Alright, you must be tired. Go and rest first. I'll be heading back first."
"Xiao 'er respectfully sees Master off," Ling Xiao said with a slight bow.
"Don't give me that," Mu Huai said with a smile. Just as he was about to take off and leave, he suddenly thought of something. He turned around and said to Ling Xiao, "You now have the privileges of an elder. When you have time, you can go to the Book Depository Pavilion to take a look. There are many good things there, and perhaps there might be something suitable for you."
After saying this, Mu Huai finally left the Quiet Cultivation Courtyard.
After Mu Huai left, Ling Xiao immediately ordered the servant girls to prepare a bath and a change of clothes for him.
After soaking in clear water for a while, Ling Xiao actually fell asleep in the bucket of water.
During this period of time, he was really too tired. When he came out of Flame Valley, he encountered the marriage in Guzhai City. Later, he was chased by the Lao Family. When he returned to the sect, he still couldn't find peace and was chased out of Medicine Peak.
Today, he finally took revenge on Zhu Ruchang with interest, and proposed marriage to Yun Xiong in person. These two matters were solved in one bottle, and his whole person reached an unprecedented state of relaxation. Moreover, he had continuously refined medicinal pellets twice before, and his spiritual force had long been exhausted.
Ling Xiao slept for a day and a night. He didn't know that the outside of his courtyard was already full of people, and everyone was waiting for him very patiently.
… …
While Ling Xiao was sleeping soundly, in a cultivation place on Jin Tong Peak.
Xu Yi was madly bombarding the rock wall in front of him!
"Ah!
Damn bastard, I must kill you! "Xu Yi seemed to be possessed. He waved his hand and punched out. Each punch was filled with golden spiritual power, and the solid fist shadow hit the rock.
Boom boom boom!
The powerful spiritual power bombarded the rock wall, causing a burst of concentrated explosion sounds. Many stones splashed out and raised a cloud of dust.
After venting, Xu Yi finally stopped, and his appearance became extremely ferocious and frightening.
At this time, a figure appeared behind Xu Yi. It was his father, Xu Jiannan.
"Have you vented enough?
If you have, then kneel down! "Xu Jiannan coldly snorted at his son.
"Father, you …" Xu Yi turned around and clenched his fist, looking at his father in confusion.
"Kneel!" Xu Jiannan coldly snorted again.
Xu Yi looked at his father's serious face, and his legs trembled. He heavily knelt in front of his father.
"Do you know your mistake?" Xu Jiannan faintly asked with his hands behind his back.
"Father, what did I do wrong?" Xu Yi didn't understand and asked back.
Xu Jiannan ruthlessly said, "Let me ask you, is a woman more important or is strength more important?"
Xu Yi didn't even think before answering, "Of course strength is the most important."
"That's right. With strength, would you still be afraid of not being able to find a woman?
That child Meng Qi is indeed not bad, but she has always been displeased with you. Now that Ling Xiao likes her, why not let him have her? "Xu Jiannan faintly said.
He had high hopes for his son, so he naturally didn't want his son to be trapped by love. Right now, he had to wake him up.
Xu Yi was silent for a while before raising his head and unwillingly saying, "Father, are we just going to give her to Ling Xiao like this?
How can he be worthy of Meng Qi? "
"Bastard, do you think you're amazing just because you're a high rank Spirit Master?
Ling Xiao is already a fourth rank alchemist at such a young age, and he also has the strength of a middle rank Spirit Master. In terms of Tenbin, he's countless times stronger than you, and in terms of status, he's already on the same level as me. If I had a daughter, I would definitely marry her off to a handsome young man like Ling Xiao. In any case, you're not allowed to bother Meng Qi in the future. Do you understand? "Xu Jiannan angrily explained.
"No … I don't understand. Since the sect master told you to marry Meng Qi to me, how could he go back on his word as the sect master? Dad, I'm begging you, can you bring me to the sect master to ask for my hand in marriage?" Xu Yi didn't wake up from his father's words. Instead, his thoughts became even more extreme.
Xu Jiannan's face darkened, and he heavily kicked his kneeling son.
"You little bastard, do you still not understand that women are just beautiful skeletons?
Once you're strong enough, you can have any kind of woman you want. Is it worth it to offend a fourth rank alchemist for a woman?
"Furthermore, I'm still thinking of asking him to help you refine a pill for breaking through to the King level. Do you want to be stuck at the Spirit Master level for the rest of your life?!" Xu Jiannan angrily cursed.
In Xu Jiannan's heart, there was nothing more important than his own cultivation base. He wanted his son to understand that only with strength could he obtain everything. Women were just playthings, and he didn't care about them at all.
Xu Yi lay on the ground in a daze for a long time. His lax gaze became focused, and he said to his father, "Father, I understand. As long as I break through to the King level, Meng Qi will be mine, right? Let's go find Elder Nangong and have him refine a pill for me to break through to the King level."
Xu Jiannan almost fainted from anger when he heard his son's words.
He had wasted so much time, but how could his son still not understand his painstaking efforts?
