Zhang Shiping led the crowd to walk in the mountains, walking slowly. Hearing what Yan Li said, he suddenly had a thought and thought of something, but he didn't show anything on his face, but sighed:

"It would be difficult if the birthplace of the False Spirit Fire was in the Barbarian Domain. It is not accessible to low-level monks. It is difficult for our disciples to mix into the Misty Valley. The news is not like Other places are so well-informed."

Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators step into the Barbarian Realm, and I am afraid that they will retreat in less than a few tens of miles, otherwise once the Ancient Qi enters the body, it will definitely turn into a monster. Only monks can walk carefully on the edge of the barbaric territory.

However, the deeper the barbarian domain goes, the more unstable the space there will be. From time to time, there will be extremely small cracks, which are difficult to detect even by the soul of the Nascent Soul cultivator, which is extremely dangerous.

As for the duties of the Misty Valley cultivators, apart from intercepting and killing those cultivators who strayed into the barbaric domain and turned into monsters, they also had to guard against some barbaric and ancient beasts that ran madly into the border.

From ancient times to the present, Nanzhou monks have established a long magic circle on the border of the barbaric domain, and warning the ancient beasts to invade the border is just a side effect.

It is rumored that if this large formation occupying a place is fully activated, there will be a dream of confining the sky and the earth, and it can lock one side of the void.

In front of such a large formation, even the powers of the upper third level cannot break through, let alone break through from the outside world.

Over the past two or three thousand years, Misty Valley has gradually controlled this long ancient formation, and managed the border of the Barbarian Territory like an iron bucket. Of course, the only Nascent Soul cultivators remaining in the small world today cannot fully stimulate the power of the great formation, at most they can only stimulate a small part of it.

As for why it is difficult for Xuanyuanzong to treat Misty Valley as it did to Kuzong, he arranged for disciples to enter it as spies to inquire about various news.

Speaking of it, it is because the methods of the five sects are actually similar, and they are too familiar with each other, so it is easy to mix some low-level spies into the other four sects.

But once they reach the level of Jindan, it is almost impossible for these spies to hide unless they rebel.

As for top-secret news such as Sun Jinghuo, only the Nascent Soul of Misty Valley and one or two most trusted Golden Core monks would know.

Therefore, on Xuanyuanzong's side, the few of them can only speculate on the location of the Sun Jinghuo based on the only information they have.

"Shiheng, what do you mean?" Tianfeng asked after pondering for a moment.

Zhang Shiping turned his head to look at Tianfeng, with a smile on his face, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and then said in a deep voice:

"Why, don't you want to? Even if there may be only a trace of the sun's fine fire that fellow Yi Daoist in Misty Valley said, I have to confirm the truth first before I am reconciled. If I can take the opportunity to inquire about the birthplace of the fire spirit, Wouldn't it be the best."

"You two, you came back from the barbarian border hundreds of thousands of miles away, and you treat guests like this? But if you can find out the news, as long as you need it at that time, you can call some of us It's just this reward, you can't be stingy, or we won't agree." Du Yu laughed.

"If we can really inquire about the birthplace of the Fire Spirit, then our reward will definitely satisfy you. Anyway, I will guard the city for the remaining hundred years. I can't go to the Nine Birds Secret Realm either. How about just using this as a reward then?" Zhang Shiping nodded and said.

"That would be the best. Don't you still have more than a hundred years until the end of your tenure? In this way, you will have five opportunities to enter and exit the secret realm. This can't be wasted. Since you can't go, then these six times Why don't you give me Duyun." Du Yu said.

Kunpeng can be said to be the most accomplished practitioner in the two realms of water and wind since ancient times, and Du Yu is a monk with water spirit roots, and he can be said to be coveting the Nine Birds Order in Zhang Shiping's hand all the time.

Among the other Nascent Soul monks of the Xuanyuan Sect, Tianfeng is the root of fire, Gongyangqian is the root of wind, Yan Li is the root of gold and fire, Qiu Cong is the root of fire and wood, and Qingyu is the root of water and wood. Root, Zhang Shiping is the root of the three spirits of earth, fire and wood.

As for Gu Arsenic in Yanyu Tower, this person's spiritual root is relatively rare, and it is the dark spiritual root after the mutation of the earth spirit root.

"Are you sure you don't want to talk to Fellow Daoist Gongyang, or she will make trouble for you when she comes back." Zhang Shiping laughed.

"Who knows where she went again, you just don't tell her, otherwise I won't dare to bear it." Du Yu said, he cupped his hands towards the crowd, with a wry smile on his face.

This appearance immediately caused the three of them to burst into laughter.

"By the way, since we decided not to intervene in the affairs of Misty Valley and Red Moon Tower, what do they think about Bixiao Palace?" Zhang Shiping suddenly thought of this matter and asked. .

"After a few days, I'll go over and discuss it with them. Our two sects have always advanced and retreated together, so there shouldn't be any major problems. It's just that Shuiyueyuan and Xuanming Palace are hard to say. Yes. Anyway, if there is any news, I will notify you guys in time." Du Yu said without haste.

"That's good." Zhang Shiping nodded and said.

At this point, after the four of them agreed on the matter of Misty Valley and Hongyue Tower, they stopped talking about it, and instead talked about their own practice, and then compared with the practice experience left by the predecessors of the sect one by one. Confirmed, and then sorted out the recent more than ten years of practice.

They were not in a hurry to find Misty Valley or Bixiao Palace either.

The four of them climbed to the extremely open and flat white jade platform at the top of Lianggu Peak, drinking tea while talking about their own enlightenment in practice.

The Nascent Soul cultivators of Xuanyuan Sect would gather together every twelve years or so, as long as they were still in Yuanxiao Binhai City, and exchange their respective cultivation practices with each other.

Coupled with the many ancient practice scriptures in the Zongmen, they will hardly take any detours in practice, saving a lot of time for groping.

These Yuanying monks in Xuanyuanzong can be said to be rich and well-rounded.

This is also the reason why at least one great monk will emerge from each generation of their five sects, it is because of the benefits of their background.

If it were those solitary cultivators who were nascent souls, or Jindan sects or true kings who made it through by chance, they would not have such a good opportunity to communicate with other comrades from time to time.

Therefore, after they cultivated to Nascent Soul, they relied more on their own groping, and sometimes took detours, wasting decades before they discovered it.

The road of practice has never been a smooth one. Before reaching the golden core, monks can still rely on hard work to accumulate mana, but after Yuanying, it will not be so simple. It is not enough to just fight and kill blindly.

Killing is to protect the way, and cultivation is in oneself, both are indispensable.

In addition, Zhang Shiping has been guarding the city for decades, and every few years he will deliberately set aside three days to explain his practice experience to the Jindan monks in the city.

Of course, most of these Golden Core cultivators are members of the Xuanyuan Sect, and a few are from the Zhengyang Sect.
