Chapter Thirteen: Black Rock Mountain
After meeting He Meng, Wang Ping wanted to ask Gu Feng would go to Heishi Mountain together.
As a result, during the conversation with He Meng, He Meng took the initiative to talk about Gu Feng with envy.
It turned out that after Gu Feng returned from the previous hunting, he had already collected enough spirit stones to buy spirit pills after he parted with them. After parting with them, he went to the Li family on the island to buy spirit pills.
Now Gu Feng has bought the spiritual pill and is concentrating on seclusion in the seventh level of Qi Refining in the place of cultivation.
"If Boss Gu can successfully break through to the seventh level of Qi Refining, he may not go out to hunt with us in the future. With that cultivation level, he can already team up with Gui Sanren, Grandma He and other late-stage Qi Refining cultivators to hunt in a further sea!"
After He Meng said these words in a complicated tone, he couldn't help but look at Wang Ping, wanting to see what Wang Ping reacted.
The result surprised him quite. After hearing the news, Wang Ping was very calm and did not have any loss he imagined.
He naturally didn't know that after Xiaofeng woke up his talented spell, Wang Ping had already planned to go out alone to hunt monsters.
Whether he and Gu Feng lead this is no longer important to Wang Ping.
At this time, after seeing him staring at him, Wang Ping understood his thoughts after thinking for a moment, and immediately said softly: "Gu Sanren, He Grandma are both old-fashioned late-stage qi refining monks who have been famous for a long time. It should be difficult for Boss Gu to join their team. At least he has to buy another defensive magic weapon to be accepted by them!"
Hearing Wang Ping's words, He Meng was immediately excited and nodded repeatedly and shouted: "It makes sense, Brother Wang's words are very reasonable, it must be like this!"
He said this, but it just revealed his uneasy and confusion, which made Wang Ping shake his head in his heart.
What Wang Ping didn't say is that if Gu Feng was promoted to the seventh level of Qi Refining, even if he could not join Gui Sanren and Grandma He, the top Qi Refining Stage Cultivator team on Jinzhu Island, could still team up with some other Qi Refining Stage Cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining Stage.
At that time, it is most likely that it will be impossible to take a cultivator like He Meng to go out to sea again, unless He Meng is willing to make great concessions on the harvest like him, Wang Ping.
In fact, He Meng didn't understand this principle.
But in the situation, it is related to his own interests. He does not want things to develop in a direction that is unfavorable to him, so he is worried about gains and losses like he is now.
It can only be said that immortal cultivators are also human beings. Unless they truly become immortals and attain enlightenment, they will not have powerful magic powers that mortals do not possess, but they are actually very different from mortals in other aspects, and there is no actual difference.
Because it was not long, Wang Ping stayed at He Meng's house for a night and set off with He Meng to He Shi Mountain.
Jinzhu Island is not small in area, with the longest straight line distance from east to west is 1,230 miles, and the longest straight line distance from south to north is 1,700 miles.
Wang Ping and his friends set out from Baisha City in the southeast of Jinzhu Island and headed to Heishi Mountain in the northeast of Jinzhu Island. They had to cross thousands of miles of mountain roads and waterways in the middle.
Fortunately, they are all immortal cultivators. When using the "light body technique" to assist in walking, crossing mountains and ridges is like walking on flat ground, and there is no need to worry about wild beasts in the mountains attacking them.
Otherwise, it would be very difficult to reach Black Rock Mountain within seven or eight days.
In fact, they can also take the sea route, go to the port of Baisha City to sea, and sail around the island can also reach the port near Blackstone Mountain within six or seven days.
However, many monsters in the sea, even if they sail around the island, they dare not say that they will not encounter monster attacks.
With He Meng and Wang Ping's cultivation level, if you encounter monster attacks on the sea, even if you only encounter a first-class low-level monster like the crocodile tail toad, you may die.
In comparison, although it is hard to travel on land, it is safe and secure.
When they crossed mountains and ridges, they were occasionally seen by woodcutters and hunters in the mountains. After seeing their way of climbing mountains and ridges, they all fell to the ground immediately and bowed from afar.
On Jinzhu Island, the legend of immortal cultivators is circulated in various cities and villages, and there is no rule that immortal cultivators are forbidden to cast magic in front of mortals.
However, in order to avoid being stared at by others every day after their identity is exposed, and being secretly discussed by others, most immortal cultivators will not easily reveal their identity in front of mortals.
Wang Ping and He Meng are not surprised by this situation. They will not stop because of any behavior of mortals. They will disappear from the sight of those mortals in an instant and will never meet again.
However, for those mortals, the experience of meeting immortals in the mountains is enough to become their lifelong conversation.
When they get old, they can process the story a little and add some plots like "Immortal Master Fuhu" to keep the children in the village around them every day.
Hurry up all the way. Wang Ping and He Meng took about eight days to reach Black Stone Mountain before this full moon night.
Heishi Mountain is located on the seaside in the northeast of Jinzhu Island. It is actually a stone mountain that is more than 300 meters high. There are many strange rocks and few plants on the mountain. The side facing the sea is even more cliffs.
If there wasn't a spiritual vein in this mountain, even those who cultivators would not want to live in such a place.
Since the "Black Shark Sanren" occupied this mountain, the area up the hillside was covered by him with a formation. Looking up from the bottom of the mountain, he could only see a flat-topped stone mountain less than two hundred feet high.
When Wang Ping and his friends arrived at Heishi Mountain, many immortal cultivators had already arrived here in advance.
Some people with impatient temperament even lay a piece of animal skin or linen on a flat ground that acts as a temporary market, and put what they want to take action.
Wang Ping looked at him and saw many "acquaintances" who had dealt with him.
When he saw him and He Meng arrive, someone greeted them immediately and invited them to have tea and chat.
Seeing this, the two of them separated and walked towards the crowd who greeted them, and exchanged their own gains and experiences during this period.
Wang Ping carried Lin Xiao'e on his back and soon walked to the side of the three casual cultivators who were greeting him.
The three casual cultivators are named Yang Fei, Zhou Yu, and Li Yun. Among them, Li Yun is also a rare female cultivator among Jinzhu Island, and a single female cultivator with a good appearance.
The person who greeted Wang Ping was Li Yun. Wang Ping and the other three had also formed a team in the past, and they had even helped Li Yun with a small favor.
After Wang Ping came here, Li Yun looked at him with big watery eyes for a while, and soon saw the changes in his cultivation level. He couldn't help but say in surprise: "I haven't seen you for more than a year. Wang Ping, you have actually broken through to the third level of Qi Refining. It's great. It seems that you have been practicing very hard this year!"
Hearing Li Yun's words, Wang Ping was about to speak humbly, and Zhou Yu next to him was already looking at him with a look of surprise and screaming: "I remember Wang Ping, you are less than twenty years old? You are at the age of qi refining. It seems that your spiritual root qualification is very good. Could it be that the three-line spiritual root qualification is not qualified?"
The spiritual root qualifications of immortal cultivators are also one of their important personal privacy. Since Wang Ping learned about the importance of spiritual root qualifications to immortal cultivators, he has basically never disclosed to others the fact that his five elements are mixed with spiritual root qualifications. What he is afraid of is that he encounters the current situation.
Therefore, facing Zhou Yu's question, he just smiled at him, and then bowed to the people repeatedly and said, "Let me spare me, brothers, I'm comparing my cultivation with you, what's the point of my life? Don't joke like this anymore!"
If a casual cultivator wants to be able to survive in the world of immortal cultivation, he must have a thorough understanding of human relationships and worldly affairs.
This is even more true in closed small circles like Jinzhu Island.
Those monks who are ignorant and do not understand the worldly ways will never find friends in such a small circle.
So as soon as Wang Ping finished speaking, Zhou Yu and others were curious, but they were very wise to not ask any further questions.
