Battle of the Roads

Chapter 1 Mist Valley

Zhao State, Shuyang Mountains.

Looking at the mountain gate ahead, a young man in white sighed deeply, with a hint of self-mockery on his face.

"It's really not easy to enter this big sect!"

Fang Zhe was an orphan in his early years, and was accidentally found to have spiritual roots by a late-stage qi training practitioner who was nearing the end of his lifespan, and was later accepted as a disciple. After the failure, he fell on the spot.

After the death of his master, Fang Zhe went to Luoxian City alone, where casual cultivators gathered, and made low-level talismans in Luoxian City on weekdays to earn meager spiritual stones.

Some time ago, he heard that Shuyang Sect was opening a mountain gate to recruit a group of disciples from casual cultivators. Although he knew that there was little hope, he still ran over. He knew that his aptitude and cultivation base were not high, but He has learned the way of talismans from his deceased master in the past few years, and he can barely make low-level talismans. He hopes to use his talent in the way of talismans to enter Shuyangmen.

But I still think too simple. This time, like him, there are more than a thousand low-level casual cultivators who came to Shuyangmen to apply. Shuyangmen only selected more than a hundred casual practitioners, and the rest were all recruited. Always refuse.

The disciples recruited by the sect, except for a few descendants of the sect's seniors and the children of vassal cultivation families, most of them are directly selected from the mortal children in the surrounding areas with spiritual roots, and cultivated since childhood. , regardless of their qualifications, as long as they have spiritual roots, they can basically enter the sect smoothly.

The other is to recruit from casual cultivators. These casual cultivators are equivalent to getting started with the arts. They are generally older and have practiced for several years. I can guarantee that these random cultivators who have mixed in come with special purposes.

Therefore, when major sects recruit disciples from casual cultivators, they are generally much higher, either with excellent spiritual root aptitude, or with a special talent for some kind of cultivation skill, or with a certain level of cultivation.

Looking at the group of people in front who passed the assessment, Fang Zhe showed a hint of envy. Some of them are geniuses with excellent spiritual root aptitude; He is a person with special talents in making talismans and refining weapons.

And the aptitude of my own three spirit roots is naturally much better than those five spirit roots that are called waste materials, but in the entire cultivation world, it can be regarded as a medium aptitude at best, which cannot make a big sect like the Shuyangmen sect another. Treat each other with eyes, recruit directly to the door.

If you want to get started, you can only be like other ordinary monks, or have a cultivation level above the late stage of Qi training before the age of 30, or have special talents in certain skills.

But Fang Zhe has practiced for several years, and now his cultivation is only at the third level of Qi training. Although he can barely make low-level talismans, it is still not a good talent for making talismans, at least Shuyangmen doesn't like it.

The aptitude of the three spiritual roots, the cultivation base of the third level of Qi training, and no special talent, such monks can be found in a large number in the cultivation world, and they are much more common than the waste materials of the five spiritual roots.

Sighing deeply again, Fang Zhe added a light body technique to himself, and then started down the mountain like other casual cultivators who also failed the election.

On the way down the mountain, Fang Zhe began to think about what to do in the future. Should he return to Luoxian City to continue making low-level talismans?
However, the spirit stones earned by making low-level talismans can't even afford the elixir needed for daily cultivation. In this way, let alone hope for the foundation building road, even if you want to break through to the middle stage of Qi training, you don't know when it will take went.

Just when Fang Zhe was thinking about how to continue his cultivation path, he suddenly heard several San Xiuxuan who had also failed in the election in front of him talking in a low voice while going down the mountain:

"Brother Li, there is no hope for you and me to enter the sect now, why don't we brothers go to the Dark Mist Valley for a fight in three months' time?"

After hearing this, a middle-aged man beside him said worriedly: "A dangerous place like the Mist Valley is full of dangers. There are many second- and third-level monsters, and there are even fourth-level monsters haunting them. You and I don't even have a decent magical weapon, if we go to the Mist Valley, let alone a level [-] monster, even if we meet a level [-] monster, we will die!"

"Of course I know the danger of the Mist Valley, but in your and my situation, if there is no great opportunity, I'm afraid it will take decades of hard work to break through to the late stage of Qi training. If that's the case, what's the point of building a foundation!"

"Hey!" The middle-aged monk also sighed deeply, and then seemed to have made up his mind: "Brother Fang, you are right, for even if there is only a glimmer of hope for foundation establishment in the future, this valley of mist is still going to go. It’s a short break, but there are many dangers here, we still have to make a long-term plan, buy some talismans, pills, and it’s best to find a good magic weapon!”

Listening to the conversation between the two people in front of him, Fang Zhe also felt his heart move. Like him, the two people in front of him are casual cultivators who want aptitude without aptitude and talent without talent. Now they want to quickly advance to the later stage of Qi training, in order to save the future There is a glimmer of hope for foundation establishment, but he is willing to take great risks to enter the valley of mist.

So what about myself, do you want to go to the Valley of the Mist?
Mist Valley, this is a dangerous place located three hundred miles southeast of Luoxian City. It is shrouded in dense fog all year round, and the dense fog is also highly poisonous. Cultivators cannot stay long, otherwise they will be corroded by the fog. For a dry bone.

However, every three years, the fog in the valley would dissipate. At this time, a large number of monks would enter the valley to hunt monsters and search for elixir.

However, even if the thick fog dissipated, Yinwu Valley is still full of dangers. There are a large number of monsters inside, which are equivalent to the second-level monsters of monks in the middle stage of Qi training, and equivalent to the third-level monsters of monks in the late stage of Qi training. It is spread everywhere, and even the fourth-level monsters that are equivalent to monks in the early stage of foundation establishment will appear.

Such a cloudy valley is undoubtedly a dangerous place for Fang Zhe, who is only at the early stage of Qi training, and it is unknown whether he can come out alive after going there.

But so what if it's dangerous?

There is still an endless stream of low-level monks entering the valley of mist, just to hunt high-value monsters or pick elixir in it!
When Fang Zhe returned to Luoxian City, he had already made up his mind to go to that misty valley in three months time!
Even though Fang Zhe's aptitude is average and he doesn't have any special talents, Fang Zhe's expectations for the Dao are no less than anyone else's. If he can't do extraordinary things and only rely on making low-level talismans for the shops in the city, he will lose his life in this life. Not to mention building a foundation, it is estimated that it will not be able to reach the later stage of Qi training.

In order to improve his cultivation, and in order to have a glimmer of hope in the future to hit the foundation building stage, Fang Zhe dared to venture into even a dangerous place like the Mist Valley.

However, if you want to take risks in the Mist Valley, you have to make thorough preparations. Even though there are many resources in the Mist Valley, there are great dangers that come with it. It is those monks in the late stage of Qi training, even the monks who have completed Qi training, dare not say that they will be able to come out alive without incident.

After returning to Luoxian City, Fang Zhe resumed his usual life. He bought blank talisman materials and made talisman materials. He also simply sold a large number of produced talismans to those shops.

However, the spirit stones earned from making talismans were not used to purchase pills for cultivation as usual, but were accumulated, because he knew that with his own aptitude, even if all the earned spirit stones were used to buy pills , it is also impossible to break through to the middle stage of Qi training in a short period of time.

He wants to use the accumulated spirit stones to improve his combat effectiveness, so that the upcoming group of Mist Valley can come back alive!

Therefore, on weekdays, in addition to making and selling talismans, he would also wander around in Luoxian City to buy things that could improve his combat effectiveness.

For example, elixirs that can regenerate limbs, such as anti-drug pills that can avoid all kinds of poisons, and some talismans that Fang Zhe cannot make by himself, etc.

In addition, the most important thing is that Fang Zhe wants to buy a magic weapon that suits him!
