Chapter 1173 Commoner Birds (Part 2)
"Can't you buy any black gold?"
Long Wanda's face deliberately showed a look of disappointment, "I also want to buy some black gold elixir to consolidate my cultivation level in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Black gold is rare outside, but why is there no black gold sold even on your Buyi Island now?"
"Senior, we cannot decide how much black gold can produce each year." Hearing Long Wanda's words, the cultivator in the Qi training stage smiled bitterly and said, "Senior, I'm afraid he doesn't know much about black gold, right?"
"I really don't know much, I only know that it comes from the body of the common bird." Long Wanda nodded. Although he knew that black gold was the excrement of the common bird, Long Wanda knew nothing about how the Buyi Sect took these excrements.
"If the two seniors have time, I can explain in detail to you." The Qi training practitioner invited the two out of the teleportation array. After all, the teleportation array is used very frequently, and they cannot teleport without leaving others.
"Okay!" Long Wanda looked at the Qi training practitioner and said with a smile: "I don't know what to call you?"
If it were placed in the secular world, Long Wanda would definitely shout out with a man, but he knew that the hierarchy system was very strict in the Lianyun Sea. The practitioners in the Qi training stage and the Foundation Establishment stage were equivalent to people from two worlds. If he really called out this brother, I am afraid that this practitioner in the Qi training stage would not have to sleep peacefully today, and he still didn't know what kind of nervousness would be like.
"My younger brother's surname is Zhang, and he only has a Qi name. Just call me Zhang Qi."
Zhang Qi's attitude is very respectful. Unlike medium and large forces like Daishan Sect, Buyi Island is just a slightly larger island. Even a Jindan stage cultivator has never appeared. His foundation is shallow, so after a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator released his kindness to him, Zhang Qi was inevitably excited.
"Zhang Qi? People from the Zhang family in Qiyi Island?"
Long Wangda took a closer look at the Qi Practice Cultivator. When he was a pirate in the past, he heard about the Zhang family in the Qiyi Island. The Zhang family is the largest force in the Lianyun Sea. It is said that there are powerful people in the Jindan stage in the clan, occupying a large area of sea area, which is no less than those medium and large sects.
"Senior, I'm kidding. If I were from the Zhang family, why should I stay on Buyi Island?"
Hearing Long Wanda's words, Zhang Qi smiled bitterly. Although there were not many surnames in Lianyunhai, they might not be from the Zhang family. Even if their ancestors might have some blood relationships, they are still very weak now and have nothing to do with them.
"That's right, Zhang Qi, you can talk about Black Gold for us." Long Wangda took out a low-grade spirit stone and threw it over, saying, "I won't let you do anything in vain. This spirit stone is for you."
"Thank you senior!"
After taking the lower-grade spirit stone, Zhang Qi's attitude became a little more respectful. You should know that after becoming a disciple of the sect, he can certainly receive a different amount of cultivation resources from the sect every month, but he also has to do sect tasks in exchange for these resources. In short, the sect does not support idle people.
Zhang Qi's reception work in the teleportation array is the sect tasks he receives. Compared with the tasks of hunting sea beasts, his current work is undoubtedly much easier, but the reward is far less than those with dangerous tasks, so a spirit stone can be seen in Zhang Qi's eyes.
After Zhang Qi put away the spirit stones, he let the two of them sit in a room next to the teleportation array, and then he spoke, "Senior, how much do you know about the common bird?"
"I only know that the common bird is a spiritual bird, I don't know anything else."
Long Wanda told the truth that there are sea beasts in the Lianyun Sea, spiritual beasts on the islands, and spiritual birds in the sky, with more than tens of millions of species. Long Wanda has been in the Lianyun Sea for several years and probably has seen no more than one hundred spiritual birds and sea beasts. It is good that he has heard the names of common birds.
"Senior, Buyi Bird is a unique spiritual bird on Buyi Island. Because Buyi Island has a very special rock called Qixing Rock, it is the favorite food of Buyi Birds, so Buyi Birds will only survive on Buyi Island and cannot be seen elsewhere."
Zhang Qi carefully explained the characteristics of the common bird to Long Wanda and Fang Yi. Although this bird also lives by omnivorous and often hunts sea beasts and sea fish, if they want to grow and grow, they have to swallow some seven-star rocks. It can also be said that the seven-star rocks are the key to the evolution of the common birds.
"The bird that eats rocks? Is it useful for the human cultivator to eat rocks?" Fang Yi and Long Wanda both opened their eyes. They didn't expect that rocks could be eaten, but the bird of common clothes could evolve after eating rocks, and perhaps the cultivator could also improve his cultivation.
"No, it's useless even if you grind the Qixing Rock into powder and eat it." Zhang Qi shook his head and said, "That rock is only useful for the common bird."
"How powerful is the Buyi Bird?" Fang Yi asked in an instant. Their purpose of this trip was to find descendants of the Situ family, but later they had the idea of joining Buyi Island, so they naturally had to understand Buyi Island clearly.
"As long as they are adult common people, they are equivalent to cultivators in the late stage of human Qi training, and their tribe is very powerful."
Zhang Qi said with a serious face: "I have fought with the Buddy Bird once, and I am not a match for it at all. If it weren't for the Buddy Bird who is not so cruel by nature and does not eat human cultivators, I'm afraid I would have been torn to pieces long ago."
"It's just equivalent to the cultivation level of the late stage of Qi training. It shouldn't be difficult for us to suppress the common bird, right?"
Hearing Zhang Qi's words, Long Wanda was a little puzzled. Even if there were many common birds, there were many human foundation-building cultivators. In Long Wanda's view, it would not be easy to unite with a few medium and large sects and sweep the clan of the common birds.
"Senior, it's not that easy."
Zhang Qi shook his head and said, "There is a demon king in the group of Buyi Birds. It is already lucky that we human cultivators can stay on Buyi Island to practice. If you want to suppress them, you will not kill the demon king first."
"There is a demon king in the clan of the common birds? How can they allow human cultivators to live on the common island?" Long Wanda was stunned when he heard this. He never expected that the spiritual birds like the common birds could actually evolve into the demon king.
In the Lianyun Sea, no matter whether human forces, sea beasts or spiritual beasts on islands, as long as individuals or ethnic groups are strong to a certain extent, they can occupy their own territory. Just like Netherworld beasts, they occupy a large area of sea.
There are countless islands in Lianyun Sea. In addition to human cultivators, there are also some powerful spiritual beasts and spirit birds occupying countless islands. According to Long Wanda's understanding, spirit birds in the Golden Pill stage can already dominate the Buyi Island.
"I don't know this."
Zhang Qi smiled bitterly when he heard this. He was just an ordinary cultivator on Buyi Island, not a senior sect, and he didn't know much about these things. However, Zhang Qi had never seen the demon king, nor had he seen the cultivator attack on human cultivators on a large scale.
"Maybe it's because of the black gold." Fang Yi said thoughtfully: "No matter how powerful the demon king is, cultivators can still deal with it. Maybe it's because of the black gold that those powerful people who cannot hide from the world have not destroyed the clan of the Buddie Bird."
In fact, the facts are quite similar to what Fang Yi guessed. In ancient times, the common bird was just a kind of spiritual bird raised by humans. After the changes in the ancient space, these spiritual birds gradually evolved into wild spiritual birds, but because of the fact that they were once raised by humans, they were not very hostile to human cultivators.
In addition, the reason why the common-clad birds can excrete black gold, the strongest of human cultivators have once shocked the common-clad birds and allowed them to live in peace with the human cultivators. This is why the human cultivators and common-clad birds coexist on the same island. This is very rare on other islands. After all, a demon king in the Golden Elixir stage can dominate a large area of sea.
Of course, over the years, the wildness in the blood of the common birds has increased greatly, and sometimes they will fight with human cultivators. In particular, the common birds like to take advantage of the situation to rob and steal the spoils of human cultivators when they hunt sea beasts and sea fish. For this reason, small-scale battles between human cultivators and common birds also occur frequently.
"Maybe as my predecessor said."
Zhang Qi pointed to a high mountain peak in the distance and said, "It is the place where the common birds live, called Qixingyan Mountain, and it is also a forbidden area for human cultivators. Even the three island owners dare not enter Qixingyan Mountain."
"For the common birds, we are actually foreign invaders." Fang Yi looked up at the mountains in the distance and pulled the topic back, "Zhang Qi, since humans cannot enter the Qixing Rock Mountain, where did the black gold come from?"
"Black gold was exchanged for our cultivators."
Zhang Qi said: "Before winter every year, the common birds will trade with human cultivators. They use black gold to exchange for human supplies. In terms of IQ, the high-level spiritual birds in the common birds are actually no less than our humans."
"Well? What materials are used for?"
Fang Yi asked afterwards. He was now in the foundation-building stage. And the main medicine for black gold to refine the foundation-building stage elixir. Fang Yi naturally wanted to get some to spare. With the Juntian Ding, as long as the medicinal materials were all available, Fang Yi would not be able to practice the elixir in the future.
"Human elixirs, spiritual food, monsters, sea beasts, sea fish, can all exchange black gold with common people, but they have the final say in this kind of transaction, and the exchange of more and less is the final decision."
There is one thing Zhang Qi did not tell Long Wanda and Fang Yi that is the black gold excreted by the common birds, which is not endless. Strictly speaking, the common birds can only discharge black gold from their bodies once in their lives, and that is, when they are adults, the strange substance of black gold will be grown in their bodies.
Therefore, the annual transaction between the common bird and human cultivator depends on the number of young birds and adult common birds derived from the common birds over the past year, which also leads to instability in the black gold transaction.
