One must know that the Mystical Sky Temple would not spend so much effort to build a temple in the mountains for no reason. The reason why they did so was because of the special products in the cave. This cave was accidentally discovered by a Daoist from the Mystical Sky Temple a long, long time ago. The cave was filled with spiritual energy and there were many special spiritual mushrooms growing there. In addition, there was a clear spring in the cave. It was not small and there was a special breed of eyeless fish that grew in it.
No matter whether it was the spiritual mushroom or the eyeless fish, they were all delicious spiritual items. Not only could they be eaten, they could also be used in medicine to make spiritual pills. Although it was not some good spiritual medicine, it was produced in large quantities here. Every year, there would be close to a thousand pounds of it. Adding it all up, it was not a small amount! It was worth at least a million spiritual stones.
Of course, a million spiritual stones was nothing to the Xuantian Monastery. But the key was that this was a long-term business. Every year, there would be spiritual stones accumulated and it could not be underestimated. Thus, in order to occupy this cave, the Xuantian Monastery decided to build a Cool Breeze Temple here. The entrance of the cave was in the temple.
Because this was the mortal realm, even if the spiritual energy in the cave was rich, it could not be compared to the Xuantian Monastery. Thus, no high level cultivators were willing to come here. Thus, this place was handed over to the Mystical Sky Temple to manage. As long as they sent the spiritual mushrooms and eyeless fish every year, it would be fine. And the quantity of these items could be adjusted. As long as the person guarding this place moved his finger slightly, earning ten thousand spiritual stones every year would be a piece of cake. Furthermore, they could taste the delicious spiritual mushrooms and eyeless fish from time to time. Naturally, low-level cultivators would do anything to obtain such a position that was not only free of risk, but also highly rewarding.
After understanding the situation of the Cool Breeze Temple, Xiao Pang immediately knew that Qing Feng Zi treated him well and was really taking care of him as an elder. His heart was filled with gratitude. But Xiao Pang was an introverted person and did not know how to express his gratitude. He could only remember it in his heart and decided that he would repay him in the future.
Since the Cool Breeze Temple was so good, and Xiao Pang was not well liked in the Mystical Sky Temple, the trouble he caused also implicated the people in the temple, causing them to meet with a lot of trouble when they were dealing with worldly affairs. So Xiao Pang wasn't willing to stay any longer. After asking for directions to the Cool Breeze Temple, he took the jade token that Qing Feng Zi gave him and set off.
Two days later, Xiao Pang finally found the small Cool Breeze Temple deep in the forest. This place could not be compared to the Mystical Sky Temple. There were only three courtyards: front, middle, and back. There were only seven or eight Daoist priests and odd-job workers. The entrance to the cave was in the backyard, hidden in a side room.
Xiao Pang explained his intentions to the host and showed Qing Feng Zi's jade token, successfully completing the transaction. However, from the other party's unfriendly expression, it was obvious that he was very angry that Xiao Pang had taken over his position. But the sect rules were strict and he did not dare to disobey. So no matter how angry he was, he could only helplessly take his luggage and leave. However, from the other party's hateful gaze, it seemed that this matter was not over yet.
Xiao Pang had Qing Feng Zi's support and his own strength was also very strong. He did not even place this Xiantian Seventh Level in his eyes. On the surface, he was polite, but seeing that the other party was still indifferent, Xiao Pang lost interest in dealing with him. He casually sent him away and began his life as a temple host.
This was Xiao Pang's first time as a temple host. Everything was new and he did not know anything. He could only get them to prepare the food and wine. Then, he found two smart and experienced fellows to drink. As they drank, they asked about the relevant matters. The other party knew that for Xiao Pang to be able to come here, he definitely had a backer. Furthermore, Xiao Pang was very polite and even treated them to drinks. Thus, they tried their best to suck up to Xiao Pang and told him everything. Thus, Xiao Pang very quickly got the details of the Cool Breeze Temple from the other party.
It turned out that the Cool Breeze Temple was famous for being leisurely. As long as one looked at the cave and didn't let any wild beasts enter and destroy anything, they would pay attention to the growth of the spirit mushrooms and water them appropriately. Even this bit of work was done by the Taoist priests. Xiao Pang, as the temple host, had nothing to do at all. In name, he was supervising, but in reality, he was idle. Every half a year, the Mystical Sky Temple would send people to collect the Spiritual Mushrooms and Eyeless Fish. Other than this time when Xiao Pang had to deal with them, he did not have anything to do for the entire year.
During this banquet, Xiao Pang was fortunate enough to taste the specialties of this place, the Eyeless Fish and Spiritual Mushrooms. After all, he was their new superior, so the Taoist priests had to suck up to him.
Speaking of which, the taste of the Eyeless Fish and Spiritual Mushrooms was not bad. The Eyeless Fish was less than three inches long and was completely transparent. Because it did not have eyes, it got its name. When it was eaten, it was incomparably fresh and tender. There was a wave of spiritual energy mixed with the fragrance of the fish, leaving one with an endless aftertaste. As for the Spiritual Mushroom, it was a white mushroom the size of a fist. It was extremely tender and when it was eaten, it was like eating tofu.
These two things were spiritual items that contained the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. If a cultivator ate it, it would be beneficial for their cultivation. If a mortal ate it, they would be able to extend their lifespan.
But it was a pity that this thing was a little expensive. Because it was only locally produced and there was only 400 catties of fish and 600 catties of Spiritual Mushrooms, it was not cheap outside. Xiao Pang had eaten a few thousand spiritual stones today. Even as the temple host, he could only eat it occasionally. It was impossible for him to eat it every day.
But Xiao Pang was craving it? After eating it once, his craving was aroused. Thus, he was tempted by the cave. Under the pretext of inspection, Xiao Pang, accompanied by a Taoist priest, entered the cave.
After a little tour, Xiao Pang found that this place was really good. The cave was extremely deep. There were large holes and small holes, extending in all directions. There were many unfathomable underground rivers. The Spiritual Mushrooms were produced by the river and the Eyeless Fish swam in the river. In addition, there were white water plants in the river, which was said to be the food of the Eyeless Fish.
The Eyeless Fish swam freely in the water. Xiao Pang was drooling by the river. He thought that this fish was really good. If only he could eat it every day. But the problem was that this was the private property of the sect. If he was transferred in the future, he would never be able to eat it again! Could it be that he could only buy fish to eat in the future?
When Xiao Pang thought of this, his heart was naturally very uncomfortable. Suddenly, his heart moved. He thought of something. Since he could plant the Five Elements Lotus into his life source magic weapon, then why couldn't he also plant the Eyeless Fish and the Spiritual Mushroom in it? Since these two things were spiritual items, they must like places full of spiritual energy. If that was the case, then there should be absolutely no problem in his space, right? If he could succeed, hahaha, then he would have good food in the future!
