Chapter 568 Qingli Fei Family

Chapter 568: The Fei family in Qingli
had three rounds of wine and five kinds of dishes.

Fang Xing dealt with it while observing.

The five friends of Fuyun are obviously led by Old Lu, who is probably at the third level of Qi cultivation.

Song Yunqian and Hu Liuniang are similar. They are most likely sensing mixed energy and have no hope of building a foundation in their lifetime.

There is also Tie Luo Sanren, who has reached the fifth or sixth level of Qi Sensing, the highest level among the five.

As for the last Young Master Biyun, Lin Xu, he was probably at the fourth level of Qi Sense, but his conversation was somewhat extraordinary, like a down-and-out disciple from an aristocratic family.

Little did they know that in the eyes of the five Fuyun friends, Fang Xing was the one who was truly unfathomable.

Not only does he have exquisite skills in cultivating spiritual plants, but when he occasionally talks about cultivation, some of his insights are thought-provoking.

Even Lin Xu felt as if he had been enlightened after hearing it.

“These five guys really seem to want to recruit me, rather than just rip me off…”

After a round of mutual testing, Fang Xing felt a little regretful.

“Alright, fellow Taoists, if you have anything to say, please speak directly.”

He spoke directly.

The five Fuyun friends looked at each other, and finally it was Old Lu who said, “Alas… It’s so hard for us independent cultivators. We can’t find a suitable place to settle down. We are like floating duckweed…”

Fang Xing’s heart moved, thinking that many people at the table had such sighs, and tentatively said: “I think it’s not bad to travel around and make the world my home…”

“Alas, you are only at the initial stage of sensing Qi, right? It is indeed okay at this time, but when you reach the middle stage or even the final stage of sensing Qi, you will be able to feel it. Relying on ourselves alone, without the help of blessed land, evil acupoints, elixirs and other resources, every step forward is like a turtle crawling…”

Lin Xu closed the jade folding fan in his hand and smiled bitterly.

“What do the five have to teach me?”

Fang Xing showed a hint of interest.

“Your spiritual plant skills are extraordinary, I wonder if you can save the spiritual plants?”

Old Lu gritted his teeth and asked.

“This involves the secrets of my cultivation. Don’t you think it’s too abrupt, Brother Lu?”

Fang Xing made an unhappy expression.

“Fellow Daoist, calm down, calm down…”

Hu Liuniang said quickly: “We have found you just to cooperate… Have you ever heard of the ‘Qingli Fei Family’?”

“Of course I’ve heard of it. The Fei family is a Taoist family in Qingmuling, and it is rumored that they have a stake in Yunlaifang City…”

Fang Xing stated the information on the surface.

“That’s right… For independent cultivators like us, if we want to find a foundation, we either have to go to a large sect to become a disciple… but most of them fail.”

There was a bitterness in Old Lu’s words: “If we were gifted, we would have joined the sect long ago. The rest are naturally those with poor qualifications, and some of them even sense mixed energy, and will never have the hope of becoming a Taoist for the rest of their lives.”

“Other than that, we can choose those second-rate Yin Gods and Daoist families…”

“The Qingli Fei family is a powerful Taoist family. It is rumored that one of their ancestors was a great master of the Yin God Realm…”

The so-called ‘Yin Shen Realm’ is naturally a realm higher than the Dao Foundation Realm.

Fang Xing’s heart was moved when he heard this, and he deliberately said: “Joining this kind of Taoist family will bring too many restrictions. Isn’t it better for us to be free and easy cultivators? Why do we have to be tenants?”

“Of course not. If we wanted to sell ourselves, we would have done so long ago…”

Song Yunqian spoke softly but with a firm tone: “Big brother is really amazing. I heard that the Fei family of Qingli wants to open up the ‘Qingli Swamp’… and there is also a ‘opening order’, but it is very rare…”

“Qingli Swamp?”

Fang Xing immediately reacted based on the geomancy map of the foreign land in the “Records of the Great Zhou Dynasty” that he had read.

This is the Fei family’s foundation, but the swamp is very large and contains a lot of poisonous fog. The Fei family can actually occupy less than one-tenth of it.

Even so, he unceremoniously designated the entire Qingli Swamp as his sphere of influence. Once an outside force entered, it would be considered as a war!
The “Reclamation Order” was a certificate given by him as a lord to the monks below.

With this “opening order”, as long as one can open up a new spiritual place in the Qingli Swamp, they can occupy it and obtain recognition from the Fei family.

Moreover, there is only a nominal superior-subordinate relationship between them, and they are actually semi-independent in nature.

“The Reclamation Order… The Reclamation Orders of the Ten Great Sects of Good and Evil are the real good stuff. The Reclamation Orders of the Daoji Family, tsk tsk…”

Fang Xing looked noncommittal.

This made Lin Xu a little furious: “I’m afraid that only Yinshen Zhenren dares to accept the order to open up wasteland from the ten major sects… It’s good enough to be from the Daoji family. I don’t know how many independent cultivators can’t get this opportunity. After all, if you become a vassal of the Fei family, it is equivalent to indirectly becoming a vassal of Qingmuling, and you can get protection…”

“Too.”

Fang Xing smiled and said, “However, I didn’t expect that the five Taoist friends had such a way that they could even get the Land Reclamation Order.”

“There are still three pounds of nails on a rotten boat…” Old Lu said with a smile, “I have a granddaughter who happened to marry into the Fei family, so I was able to get the news in advance… There are five land reclamation orders this time, three of which have been selected, and the remaining two are released for casual cultivators like me to fight for…”

“It’s so miserable to be a casual cultivator in this world. I feel worse than a dog…”

Fang Xing was somewhat speechless: “Could it be that the five of you want to form a partnership with me? As for the money, I can chip in a little…”

“No, if we use all the talisman money to bid, it will cost too much, so we won’t take it… But Liu Niang heard a piece of news, in the Fei family’s medicine garden, a ‘Dragon King Ginseng’ has become diseased, and many spiritual plant husbands are helpless… If Daoist can cure it, you will definitely be able to lock in a land reclamation order.”

Old Lu smiled and said, “I heard from you before that I am also worried about the place to practice. If you can cure Dragon King Shen, how about we join forces?”

Fang Xing understood and looked at Hu Liuniang.

According to previous tests, this female cultivator did not hide her origins. She was indeed from a brothel, and her Su Nu Kung Fu was extremely pure. Even Lin Xu did not dare to be presumptuous.

Although he later became a good woman, he was still extraordinarily well-informed.

“I see……”

Fang Xing said, “I wonder what disease the Dragon King Ginseng has? What’s the condition? What’s the year?”

A hundred-year-old elixir and a thousand-year-old elixir are completely different things.

“This Dragon King Ginseng is the lifeblood of the Fei family… It is said that it has been cultivated for more than 800 years and even has a trace of spirituality… The Fei family does not dare to exhaust all the resources, but every sixty years, they will release ginseng juice from the Dragon King Ginseng and exchange it for extremely rare treasures from ‘Qingmuling’…”

Old Lu said.

“Eight hundred year old spiritual ginseng? That’s difficult…”

Fang Xing sighed.

“Is it not possible for you, fellow Daoist?” Tie Luo San Ren spoke most directly.

“I have never seen that spiritual ginseng with my own eyes, so I dare not make a hasty judgment.”

Fang Xing answered truthfully that he had not yet decided to wade into this muddy water, so his response was very perfunctory.

However, Old Lu was very good at maintaining his energy, and he still smiled and urged people to drink.

After Fang Xing left, Lin Xu picked up the wine pot and poured a glass of the remaining wine: “Brother… isn’t he just a spiritual plant husband? His cultivation level is only at the beginner level, why bother with so much trouble?”

“Humph, can an ordinary spiritual plant husband have such conversation and knowledge?”

Old Lu shook his head: “Can an ordinary spiritual plant farmer grow that kind of spiritual fruit? If we want to earn a fortune in Qingli Swamp and open up real spiritual eyes and evil points… how can we do without an excellent spiritual plant farmer? Although there are a few other candidates being considered… but I think this boy is the best, it’s a pity that his origins are a bit mysterious…”

“Brother, I have always admired your vision, but I can only give half of my wealth…”

Song Yunqian sighed: “My Yunyun will soon be enlightened, and she must have all kinds of spiritual practice resources…”

Even if the order to open up the swamp is successfully obtained, there will definitely be more monks who die in the Qingli Swamp than those who survive!

Moreover, the initial development requires a lot of resources and will definitely result in losses.

Otherwise, the Fei family would have done it themselves and would not have shared it.

“Sister Song has Yunyun to take care of, but I’m all alone. It’s useless to keep all that money. Let’s just take a gamble this time.”

Tieluo Sanren spoke calmly.

“Okay, since both Big Brother and Second Brother said so… I will also risk my life to accompany you. At most, I will go to Baihua Tower less often in the future.”

Lin Xu gritted his teeth and said, “If I succeed this time, I will go to the more advanced Wanhua Tower every day in the future!”

…

“Reclamation Order, Fei Family, Qingli Swamp… Interesting!”

On the other side, Fang Xing, who had already left, was also thinking about the information he had obtained this time.

“If the information is true, then Qingli Swamp is indeed a good place…”

He recalled some records on the geomancy map: “This Qingli Swamp is full of poison. If we want to develop it, we not only need to move mountains and create land, but also need to buy various treasures to purify the poisonous fog… It is a very costly thing.”

“Moreover, many monsters are likely to be born in the poisonous fog…Except for the independent cultivators who are very eager to oppose the foundation of the family, there are indeed no cultivators who will accept this kind of land reclamation order, but for me?”

There was a gleam of light in Fang Xing’s eyes.

He had long wanted to build a foundation, and the Fei family’s backing of Qingmuling was in line with his previous plan to rely on a secondary force.

“And… my Druid’s ability to transform nature is not bad…”

As long as we collect some spiritual seeds suitable for planting in Qingli Swamp, preferably those with purification effects, we can slowly purify the Qingli Swamp.

In fact, for druids, these dangerous places in nature are never dangerous.

‘When a druid reaches level 4, he should be able to obtain the talent of ‘immunity to poison’… it will be very useful for surviving in the swamp.’

In fact, after possessing the ability of a druid, you can find any wasteland and transform it into a place for training.

However, the property rights are unclear and there will always be some troubles later, so it is better to do it in one step.

“These five friends of Fuyun are very suitable to be put on the stage…”

“After all, I only need a piece of land to plant trees, and I will have the essence of plants and trees to cultivate. I don’t need any evil caves… Therefore, there is no fundamental conflict of interest with the practitioners, so I can just give in…”

Fang Xing’s plan for the future is very simple, as long as he doesn’t die, that’s enough.

When I wake up, that will be victory!
