Snow Island!!
In the south, there is a mountain range that is extremely steep, yet full of the spiritual beauty of heaven and earth. Each mountain range exudes a unique spirituality. You can feel that the rich spiritual energy is condensed in the mountains, making the flowers, plants and trees growing on the mountains very lush and full of vitality. At a glance, there are more than a hundred such mountains. The distribution seems to be chaotic at first glance.
But if you take another look, you will feel that it contains magical mysteries, as if you can see the ultimate truth of heaven and earth, constantly operating. Every mountain is connected to each other by qi, and every breath they take responds to each other.
There is a spiritual vein running through the mountains.
It's not just one mountain range, but every mountain range contains a spiritual vein. Although the spiritual veins are big or small, strong or weak, if there is a spiritual vein, it means it is a treasure land for cultivation, and the speed of cultivation is much faster than that of the outside world.
And the mountains before us vaguely form a whole.
This is some kind of formation, some kind of formation.
The surrounding clouds naturally gathered around the mountains, covering the top of the mountains, making it look like a fairyland. At the top of the mountains, you can see palaces and pavilions standing tall, each of which is extraordinary and can be seen at a glance that it is not something that can be possessed by mortals. In the early morning, purple air came from the east. In the squares and palaces of each mountain, a powerful suction force was transmitted, sucking in the purple air from the east.
It swallows and exhales like a whale sucking water.
You can see a large number of monks in green robes practicing combat skills and supernatural powers. Everywhere is filled with the atmosphere of immortals. It is a sight to behold and one's heart yearns for.
At the bottom of the mountain range, you can see that a large number of people have built a large number of houses and gathering places around the mountain range. A large number of people are working hard and have reclaimed a large amount of fertile land in the lower part of the mountain range. This is not just fertile land, but spiritual land. The spiritual land, which is nurtured by the huge spiritual energy in the spiritual veins, is planted with various spiritual rice and even medicinal fields for spiritual medicine.
A large number of human beings are farming in the spiritual fields.
There is a human immortal gate in this mountain range, called Qingshan Immortal Gate.
And in every home of the people living at the foot of the mountain, there is a portrait hanging prominently.
The portrait was of a green mountain, on which stood a middle-aged man in a green robe, with an air of immortality and a dustpan in his hand. He looked so lifelike that he seemed as if he would ride the wind back at any moment and travel through the universe.
This portrait is said to be of Qingshan Patriarch, the founder of Qingshan Immortal Sect.
The people of the human race who were blessed by the Qingshan Immortal Sect not only needed to work in the fields and look after the spiritual fields every day, but also needed to pray devoutly to the portraits every morning and evening, dedicating their own incense and wishes. This was done every day, every year.
Ordinary people, after doing all these, do not have much time to practice.
The disciples of Qingshan Immortal Sect, however, can get rid of the complicated trivialities and spend a lot of time on cultivation, and their cultivation level increases faster than usual. As for the people of the human race who are protected by Qingshan Immortal Sect, every year, Qingshan Immortal Sect will open its gates and recruit disciples, including outer disciples and inner disciples. Although the number is not large, the recruits are also young people with outstanding talents.
Although the number is not large, it still gives most people a chance to make the leap.
Of course, Qingshan Immortal Sect did not prohibit the people of the surrounding human race from practicing, but it did not mean to provide them with skills, combat skills, magical powers, and magic. These were the foundation of the sect. No one would take them out easily. Moreover, once the skills were spread, it might not be a good thing for Qingshan Sect. Once everyone became stronger through practice, they would inevitably have other thoughts that they should not have.
Who would be willing to be a menial servant in the Qingshan Immortal Gate and have to pray and offer incense every day
This is the Qingshan Immortal Gate of the human race in the Snow Continent, which even the Ice Crystal King Court is very afraid of. In the surrounding area, the number of human race people protected by it is as high as tens of millions. They completely rely on the Immortal Gate to survive.
The Qingshan Immortal Sect uses the surrounding mountains as its formation base, and uses the Five Peaks Qingshan Formation to guard all directions. Once the formation is activated, even if the Ice Crystal King's Court sends troops to attack, they will still return in defeat. This is one of the fundamental reasons why the Qingshan Immortal Sect has been able to stand firm in Xuezhou.
Strength is the foundation.
In the green mountain area.
In an ancient city, one can clearly see that the people in the city are gathering, but most of them are in a hurry. There is not much time to waste. After all, living here, no one can be cunning or sly, otherwise, what awaits them is hunger and inability to maintain adequate food and clothing.
With a population of tens of millions, even though the Qingshan Mountains are vast, people still need to work hard to survive and have enough food.
Not only do they need to grow food for themselves, but they also need to work and farm for Qingshan Immortal Sect.
It would be a miracle if I had free time.
However, they are human beings after all, and as human civilization has been passed down, many people have naturally evolved into various professions.
For example, merchants, blacksmiths, tailors, etc., people with special skills will eventually have a chance to succeed. They use their skills and brains to earn daily necessities and various resources. Qingshan Immortal Gate does not stop them. This is the inevitable development of civilization.
No one can stop it.
This is especially true when it comes to food, clothing, housing and transportation.
As long as it does not delay the morning and evening prayers, it will be fine. You should know that under the Immortal Gate, all human beings who accept the protection of the Immortal Gate must register. Life and death are recorded in the register. Whether the daily prayers are completed is also recorded. No one can cheat on it. Once discovered, you will be warned. After three times, you will not be killed, but you will be expelled from the Immortal Gate.
Once expelled, you can imagine what the consequences will be.
This ancient city is called Qingfeng City.
At this moment, several ordinary-looking figures walked into Qingfeng City. Their clothes and appearance were not much different from those in the city. After entering the city, they were not noticeable. They found an inn or restaurant.
After walking in, we ordered some drinks and food.
"Sir, the dishes you ordered require a total of three crystal coins."
The waiter spoke after everyone had ordered their food.
In the Qingshan Immortal Gate Realm, crystal coins are used as currency, but crystal coins are relatively precious here. Three crystal coins are already a very sumptuous meal for the inn. He reminded them because he was afraid that they would eat a free meal.
"This is for you. It's worth the three crystal coins."
A peaceful voice was heard, and then a golden eternity coin was placed on the table.
The waiter's eyes lit up when he saw it. This Eternal Coin was fundamentally different from the Crystal Coin, and there was no comparison at all. He instinctively knew that the value of this Eternal Coin was far more than three Crystal Coins.
He immediately said that the food and wine would be served soon, then picked up the eternal coin and left quickly.
"The military advisor is planning to alert the enemy."
A calm voice was heard.
One hat after another was taken off.
Looking closely, it was Jia Xu, Zhuge Zhengwo and others. This time, two of the Four Famous Detectives came, Iron Hand and Leng Xue. There were four of them, and the ones who just spoke were undoubtedly Jia Xu and Zhuge Zhengwo.
"In the Snow Continent, according to investigation, only four major forces can still slightly compete with the Ice Crystal King Court. Although most of them are only trapped in one side, they have survived to this day with the help of external forces or because of their strength. Among these forces, only the Qingshan Immortal Sect belongs to the human race. If nothing unexpected happens, there should be powerful people above the True Spirit Realm in the sect. This time, we will start with the Qingshan Immortal Sect and test the waters first."
Jia Xu said with a faint smile.
Qingshan Immortal Sect is the largest force of the human race in this area, so naturally they need to be contacted. After all, forces like immortal sects are not a very stable factor for the Great Yi Dynasty.
The knights break the law with force, and the immortals exist even more outside the law.
After entering the Qingshan Immortal Gate, what they saw and heard made them feel uneasy. The Immortal Gate here was indeed protecting the people, but on the basis of this protection, they were exploiting and using them. They needed to pray day and night and contribute incense and willpower, which was no different from the livestock in captivity. In addition to working as usual, they also had to help the Immortal Gate cultivate spiritual fields and plant spiritual rice and spiritual medicine. There were countless miscellaneous tasks.
In this case, what is the big difference between the human beings here and the servants
Perhaps the only good thing is that here you are not prohibited from coming and going.
You can choose to leave or stay, but if you stay, you must abide by the rules. This is the attitude of the Immortal Sect.
They protected the people of the human race from being invaded by foreign invaders, which was a merit for them. But they couldn't protect them for nothing. Everything had to be paid for, and from the perspective of the immortal sect, they didn't think it was wrong.
"Compared with our Great Yi, this place has an indescribable feeling. Although the Xianmen's approach seems to have no place to attack, it is really hard to agree with it."
Zhuge Zhengwo shook his head and said.
I always feel that this is a kind of spiritual slavery.
In comparison, in the Dayi Dynasty, everyone can practice cultivation and live freely for themselves. By comparing the two, one can feel an essential difference.
"Existence is the truth. Lord Zhuge, why should you care? At least, this Qingshan Immortal Sect is not an evil sect, and it takes good care of its people. Of course, if the entire Snow Continent is incorporated into the territory of Dayi in the future, the affiliation of these people cannot be left to the Immortal Sect to decide."
Jia Xu said with a smile.
From each of our standpoints, there is no right or wrong.
"The military advisor showed the eternal coins in order to attract people from Qingshan Immortal Sect." Zhuge Zhengwo nodded and said.
"Instead of us going to find them, we might as well let them come to us. Come on, let's eat first and wait while we eat. If Jia is right, by the time we finish eating, the people from Qingshan Immortal Sect will be here soon."
Jia Xu said with a firm look.
And now, in the inn.
The waiter delivered the eternal coin to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper naturally had an extraordinary vision and could see the extraordinaryness of the Eternal Coin at a glance.
"This is not the currency of our Qingshan territory. This kind of currency is definitely not for ordinary people. Those guests are from the outside world and must be reported to the Immortal Gate immediately."
