Chapter 113 Earth Fire Veins
White Narcissus City, inner city area.
The inner city is the heart of White Narcissus City.
There are various exquisite caves, each of which exudes a unique charm.
At this time, a female cultivator was standing quietly in front of an elegant cave, seemingly waiting for something.
She was wearing a blue dress as light as flowing clouds, with a simple bun on her head and a transparent jade hairpin inserted diagonally, looking gentle and generous.
From the horizon, a stream of purple air broke through the air and condensed into the figure of a young monk.
Upon seeing this, the blue-clothed female cultivator's pretty face suddenly showed an unconcealable joy.
She walked forward with lotus steps, bowed respectfully and said, "Excuse me, are you Senior Han Linhan?"
Ji Chang nodded.
The blue-clothed female cultivator's face was even more delighted, and she said softly, "I am Liu Xuexuan, and I am honored to be Senior Han's cave housekeeper. If you need anything, please let me know."
Her voice is clear and pleasant, like flowing spring water, which makes people feel happy.
However, Liu Xuexuan seemed a little worried. She hesitated slightly before speaking.
"If you are dissatisfied with me, or if you already have a servant you trust, you can replace me at any time."
Having said that, she bit her lips lightly, a hint of nervousness appearing on her pretty face.
Ji Chang did not focus on her, but glanced at the cave not far away.
"Let me introduce the cave first."
Hearing this, Liu Xuexuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and an expression of joy that was hard to conceal appeared on her face.
It seems that this senior who has established his foundation has no plans to replace her for the time being.
This finally made her feel relieved.
In a place like Baishuixian City, being able to become the steward of a high-level cave, especially a cave where foundation-building cultivators live, is undoubtedly a rare opportunity for a cultivator like her.
If you are replaced due to poor performance, it will be very difficult to get such an opportunity again.
Therefore, Liu Xuexuan cherished this opportunity very much. She slightly turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation.
Liu Xuexuan opened her red lips and introduced this cave to Ji Chang in a sweet and clear voice.
"Senior, this cave is located in the core area of the inner city of Baishuixian City. Not far away are the main shops in the inner city. It will definitely meet your cultivation needs."
Like most towns, Baishuixian City can also be simply divided into three major areas: outer city, inner city and core area.
However, the core area of Baishuixian City is the dojo of the Jindan cultivator who is in charge of the city. No one can enter without his permission.
Therefore, the real prosperous area of White Narcissus City actually falls in the inner city.
The cave that Ji Chang rented was the best spiritual place in the inner city.
The reason why it is called a spiritual place rather than a mansion is because this cave is not like the Cangyu Market, which is just a mansion.
It is a whole small hill with a large area.
Although Baishuixian City is vast, large tracts of spiritual land like this are mostly occupied by such cave dwellings, becoming the exclusive territory of foundation-building monks.
It is worth mentioning that the cost of spirit stones to rent such a cave is not high.
But the condition is that only cultivators with foundation-building cultivation are qualified to rent such a cave.
This is undoubtedly a privilege enjoyed by foundation-building monks.
In the world of immortal cultivation in Zheng State, the cultivators who have established their foundation have already stood at the top of the pyramid.
Even in a prosperous place like White Narcissus City, they are highly respected and will never be reduced to being forced to live in a small mansion with other monks.
Otherwise, just the convenience of transactions and the good spiritual environment would not be able to attract Zheng State's group of foundation-building practitioners to settle here.
You know, although Baishuixian City has a third-level spiritual vein, the spiritual environment in the inner city is only at the top second-level spiritual vein level.
In other places in Zheng State, there are also top-level second-level spiritual veins.
There were even some foundation-building cultivators who were lucky enough to accidentally discover a third-level spiritual vein that had not been discovered by the Jindan Zhou family, that is, the Zheng royal family.
As for transactions, there are fixed places in various parts of Zheng State where foundation-building cultivators conduct private transactions.
Because of this, Baishuixian City provides very good welfare to foundation-building cultivators.
Liu Xuexuan paused, then continued to introduce: "This cave has a top-level second-level spiritual energy environment and is equipped with a second-level spirit gathering formation, which is very beneficial for cultivation."
Speaking of this, Liu Xuexuan's pretty face revealed a hint of pride at being able to serve as a housekeeper in such a high-level cave residence.
One of the hidden benefits is being able to enjoy the rich spiritual energy in the cave.
Following a winding stone staircase downwards, the two came to the cave below the cave.
Liu Xuexuan continued to introduce the quiet rooms in the cave that were specially used for retreat. These quiet rooms were arranged with spirit gathering formations that could gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
There are also rooms such as alchemy rooms, equipment refining rooms and storage rooms.
Different from the cave structure of Ji Chang in Cangyufang City, the main living area of this cave is actually the cave located under the house.
This place is closer to the branch of the spiritual vein, the spiritual energy is more abundant, and it is protected by multiple formations, so it is also safer.
In contrast, the pavilions on the ground are used to entertain fellow Taoists.
Liu Xuexuan suddenly raised her hand and pointed at a certain formation pattern in the alchemy room and spoke.
“Senior, there is a hidden underground fire vein here. Although it is not large in scale, it is more than enough for refining pills and weapons.”
"If you need to refine pills or equipment, you can do it in the cave. There is no need to look for another place."
Ji Chang heard this and nodded slightly.
Ji Chang had a simple understanding of the basic situation of the cave when he used his identity token to inquire about the cave.
The most important reason why he chose this cave to rent was that it had a fire vein, and he could rely on the fire to make pills.
When refining a first-level elixir, it is usually sufficient to rely on magic to make fire.
However, if one wants to refine a second-level elixir, one must either master a second-level fire spell or cultivate a true fire.
Or you can control a second-level fire monster and use the monster's fire to make pills.
Otherwise, if you want to refine the second-level elixir, you will need a ground fire vein as a stable source of fire.
Of course, there are also cultivators who make elixirs by burning second-order spiritual wood as a fire source, and some even master such rare materials as the spiritual fire of heaven and earth to make elixirs.
However, burning second-level spiritual wood to start a fire is too wasteful.
However, most of the spiritual fires of heaven and earth are beyond the reach of foundation-building cultivators.
Even a Jindan cultivator who encountered the spiritual fire of heaven and earth would die if he was not careful.
"If you have any questions or needs, you can always ask me. I will do my best to serve you. I live behind the house at the entrance of the spiritual land."
Ji Chang nodded and waved his hand to let Liu Xuexuan retreat.
