The market town is right at the foot of Qingyang Mountain. After exiting the market town, follow the indicated route and you will reach the foot of the mountain in a short distance.
The cave residence that Qingyang Sect rents out is located in the Qingyang Mountains.
Chen Lin saw a building from afar. It was magnificent and just as the old man in charge had described, so he walked straight over.
After giving the jade token to the person inside, someone was responsible for leading him out.
She is a young and beautiful female cultivator.
"Sorry for the trouble, fellow Taoist!"
Chen Lin expressed his gratitude, saying that these were all disciples of Qingyang Sect and they could get closer to each other.
"Don't bother me, I'm here to do my job as well."
The young female cultivator was very cheerful. She took out two paper cranes while speaking.
Chen Lin was stunned. He didn't know what the other party wanted to do with the two paper cranes, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just said casually, "Did you make these paper cranes? They are very beautiful."
“Puff!”
The other party laughed out loud when he heard this.
He glanced at Chen Lin and said, "My name is Ling Ziyan. Are you a cultivator from Qingyang City?"
"Oh? Why are you so sure, fellow Taoist?"
Chen Lin was surprised.
Ling Ziyan smiled until her eyes formed crescents. She said, "How could the cultivators in Qingyang City not know the immortal paper cranes of our Qingyang Sect?"
After she finished speaking, she muttered something and pointed at the paper crane. The paper crane immediately became the size of a real crane, and began to emit fluorescent light, gently flapping its wings and floating in the air.
Ling Ziyan floated and landed on the paper crane.
Then he looked at Chen Lin and said, "If you are used to using flying spells, you don't have to call it the Immortal Paper Crane. But I suggest you try it. This one is specially used by my Qingyang disciples. It flies fast and stable."
Chen Lin looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out whether this fairy paper crane was a talisman or a magic weapon. Finally, he decided to give it a try.
I used the wind control technique to land on the back of the paper crane, and it felt really stable.
“Let’s go!”
Ling Ziyan called out, and the two paper cranes spread their wings and flew towards the Qingyang Mountains.
There are no very high peaks in the Qingyang Mountains, but the scenery is very beautiful.
Looking down from the sky, there are green mountains and green waters, chirping insects and birds, and a faint mist, which is quite a fairyland scene.
However, the fairy paper crane under his feet was not as exaggerated as the female disciple said. It was very stable, but not really fast. Even his wind-controlling technique could not compare to it.
Of course, for cultivators in the early stages of Qi training, this thing is definitely a treasure.
Because normal flying instruments must be trained in the middle stage of Qi training before they can be controlled, and flying spells also must be trained in the middle stage of Qi training before they can be learned.
This was the first time he had seen something that could allow a cultivator in the early stages of Qi training to fly. It should not be sold to the public.
The two of them flew one in front and one behind, and flew out of two hills before they arrived at the place.
"This is Cave No. 98 Ding. Daoist friend, just put the identity jade token in the groove at the door, and you can open the cave door. If you still don't understand anything else, take a look at this."
Ling Ziyan took out a booklet and handed it to Chen Lin.
Chen Lin flipped through it and found instructions for using the cave, as well as its various functions.
After looking at it for a while, he nodded and said, "It will be much more convenient with this. Your sect is very thoughtful. But I have a question. Can Fairy Ling explain it to me?"
Ling Ziyan smiled and said, "Just now you called me Fellow Daoist Ling, but now you call me Fairy because you want something from me. Tell me what you have to say."
Chen Lin smiled awkwardly and told what happened in Qingyang Treasure Pavilion before.
"When I rented this cave, other people didn't seem very willing to compete. Is there something wrong with this cave?"
“So that’s it!”
Ling Ziyan looked at the cave entrance and said, "It's no big deal. It's just that the location here is quite remote, so the spiritual energy is relatively poor!"
"What?"
Chen Lin was immediately furious and said, "You actually concealed this situation, it's too much, isn't this a lie? You must return the spirit stones to me!"
The remote location doesn't matter, but the low spiritual energy is absolutely intolerable.
He spent such a high price to rent the cave just to enjoy the rich spiritual energy so that he could try to break through. Otherwise, it would be much better to buy a big house in the city.
Seeing this, Ling Ziyan hurriedly explained: "Daoyou, don't be angry. Although the spiritual energy here is a little poor, the sect has specially added a small spirit gathering array here. As long as Daoyou cultivates within the range of the spirit gathering array, it will be the same as in other places."
"Besides, the price of caves has increased now, and lower-quality caves will definitely be in great demand. If I give up this one, I'm afraid I don't know how long I'll have to wait."
Chen Lin frowned and said nothing more.
If there is a spirit gathering formation, it is not unacceptable.
Although he still felt a little uncomfortable, he knew what the other party said was right. The competition in the lower-class caves was indeed fierce, so he accepted it.
Upon seeing this, Ling Ziyan immediately said goodbye, urged the paper crane and hurried away, as if she was afraid that Chen Lin would go back on his word.
Chen Lin's face darkened, but he didn't care anymore.
I read the instructions and was quite satisfied.
In addition to the spirit gathering formation, this cave also has three other formations: a defensive formation, a silent formation, and an early warning formation. All of them rely on underground spirit veins to maintain operation, and the tenants do not need to pay out spirit stones to activate them.
Although this type of simple formation does not consume much spirit stones, it is still a saving.
What satisfied him most was the silent formation. With this formation, he didn't have to worry about being noticed when refining the Thunderbolt Beads.
Arriving at the entrance of the cave, Chen Lin took out his jade identity card and stuck it into a groove next to it, and then the stone door opened automatically.
It is also inlaid with luminous stones, so it is not black at all.
After checking inside and out, Chen Lin discovered that the area of this cave was actually quite large, almost a hundred or so square meters.
There are three stone rooms in total, two of which have ready-made wooden beds, and the other one only has a futon.
According to the description in the booklet, this is the training room, where a spirit gathering array is added.
He immediately sat on the cushion to feel it, and sure enough, the spiritual energy was rich, much stronger than practicing in a mortal city.
This made his previous unhappiness disappear, and he also discovered that this cave even had a kitchen and toilet, and there were hidden ventilation holes, so it was not humid at all inside.
He was even more satisfied.
Such a living environment is certainly not as good as the big mansions in the city, but it is very safe. As long as you rent a cave, it is equivalent to being protected by the Qingyang Sect, and no one dares to attack other people's caves without authorization.
After a careful inspection and finding nothing unusual, Chen Lin used his wind-controlling skills to head straight for Qingyang City.
Here, except for the main peak where Qingyun Sect is located and a few places where flying is prohibited, there are no other no-fly restrictions. Of course, it is best not to fly low over other people's caves to avoid misunderstandings.
All the caves were marked. Chen Lin quickly arrived near Qingyang City along the ownerless land and landed at the city gate.
After eating something in the city and buying some supplies, I returned to the market.
I bought some spiritual rice and monster meat in the market, and after thinking about it, I bought another batch of materials, as well as some books about the secret and dangerous places that introduced the local customs and culture.
Only then did he return to the cave.
Then, the door of the cave began to close tightly, and there was no movement for several months.
