Chapter 37 in advance
“I found it, I found it, please ask me to find it easily.”
Maybe there are too few people buying this kind of technique that has no requirements on attributes. After a while, The clerk patted a book with a lot of dust on it and a simple cover, and said with a surprised look on his face.
"Oh? Did you really find it?" Lu Xiaotian also flashed a hint of joy on his face. He stepped forward and took the book in his hand. He saw that it was indeed the "Hunyuan Jing".
After searching for so long, I couldn’t find it. It was unexpected to be able to get the skills for the late stage of Qi refining at this time. Lu Xiaotian turned to the first page and said, “Does your company have this book? The merit of the base period? ”
"The Immortal is joking. In the entire Wangyue City, there are probably only a few books on foundation-building techniques, and they are usually not available to the public. Naturally, we don't have any here either. However, in the past few years, probably nearly three years ago, there were. Some rumors about the "Hunyuan Jing", the man said in a low voice, pretending to be mysterious.
Lu Xiaotian was startled and said, "The rumors about the "Hunyuan Jing"? Is it about the follow-up part of this exercise?"
"Yes, I heard that it is related to Lingxiao Palace. At that time, several disciples of Lingxiao Palace happened to break into an ancient cultivator. Some treasures were obtained from the scholar's ruins, but before they could return to the sect, most of the disciples in Lingxiao Palace were killed by a few powerful casual cultivators, and some of the treasures were robbed by those few casual cultivators. Kung Fu."
How many casual cultivators? His skills were given to him by the old man in black robe. Could it be that the old man in black robe and others are these casual cultivators? Lu Xiaotian's heart moved. Beiliang Kingdom is a rather barren, remote secular country with limited spiritual items. Although there are many immortal cultivating families living in Beiliang Kingdom for generations, most of them are in the early stage of Qi refining, and there should not be many in the middle stage of Qi refining. The old men in black robes are almost all in the late stage of Qi refining and Dzogchen. If they weren't trying to avoid being chased by Lingxiao Palace, how could they go to such a remote place?
The guy continued, "Later, Lingxiao Palace sent disciples to hunt down these casual cultivators, and soon they lost the news about those casual cultivators. Maybe other parts of the "Hunyuan Jing" are there. The specific details are unknown to outsiders, either in the hands of a few casual cultivators or in Lingxiao Palace. Several years have passed and this matter has almost been forgotten. If it hadn't been for the Immortal Chief to buy this book today. , I almost forgot.”
"Thank you, this is for you." After Lu Xiaotian paid for the spiritual stones required for the technique, he directly gave the man a low-grade spiritual stone.
"Thank you, thank you Mr. Immortal." The clerk was very excited and bent down to thank him repeatedly. Although he was about thirty years old, he was a secular person. Most of the ordinary immortal cultivators did not look at him seriously, and even more Needless to say, there is no such reward. His boss was reluctant to give him a spiritual stone. Such a low-grade spiritual stone was enough for him to live the rest of his life richly and worry-free. By the time he stood up straight, Lu Xiaotian had already left the shop.
“It seems that we have to find a way to open the storage bag of the old man in black robe. However, these people may have robbed the treasures of Lingxiao Palace. If the news leaks out, I am afraid they will soon be killed. .”
< br> Lu Xiaotian thought about it as he walked, and soon followed the map of Wangyue City and came to Xianmen Street. Xianmen Street was not called this name before, but all the major Xianmen set up their offices here and announced their recruitment. Disciple's task. Over time, everyone got used to this title.
The Linjin Immortal Sect’s annual recruitment of disciples only lasts for a few months. At this time, casual cultivators from all over the country will come to Wangyue City. At this time, there are thousands of people at the reception points of each Immortal Sect. There was a lot of discussion about the task.
Lu Xiaotian also squeezed in front of the stone tablet for the Immortal List mission. The conditions for recruiting disciples are different for each major immortal sect.
The first one is the largest sect in the world of immortality, the Ancient Sword Sect, which is good at refining weapons, spiritual weapons, or the level of magic weapons used in the foundation building period, which is directly related to the level of a monk's combat power. . Therefore, the combat power of the monks of the Ancient Sword Sect is often higher than that of other immortal sects.
The Ancient Sword Sect’s requirements are the most stringent. They want to obtain a demon elixir from a fourth-level demon beast, which is equivalent to the strength in the early stage of foundation building. For monks in the Qi refining stage, it is undoubtedly as difficult as climbing to the sky. Just imagine that casual cultivators sharpen their heads and want to join the Immortal Sect, just to get the Foundation Building Pill. Hundreds of Dzogchen Refining Stage cultivators can hardly threaten a foundation-building expert. This is actually equivalent to shutting out most casual cultivators with mediocre qualifications.
Second is the Qingdan Palace, which ranks second, with alchemy as its cornerstone. Since elixirs are more abundant than other sects, their practice often improves faster, and the overall strength of the sect is extremely strong.
The Qingdan Sect’s requirements are not low either. They require the collection of no less than fifty kinds of spiritual herbs. If you are a high-level alchemist, you can reduce your share by half, and by an intermediate alchemist, you can reduce your share by one-fifth.
There are only a few alchemists among the loose immortals. Lu Xiaotian estimates that he should be at the level of an intermediate alchemist now, and it will take some time to settle down before becoming a high-level alchemist.
Except for the top few Immortal Sects, the following requirements are slightly lower, but it is not easy to complete the task.
There are also some sects with special requirements. For example, the Moyang Sect only requires a spiritual root value of over thirty-five, but men must be handsome and women must be beautiful. Aged no more than twenty.
Or maybe it is written in the sect mission of the Dihuo Sect that the third elder of the sect suffered from a strange disease and fell asleep in an ice coffin all year round, with no breath left. Anyone who can cure this disease or can provide information about this disease can join this door.
Lu Xiaotian smiled when he saw it. Even the cultivating sects were helpless to deal with the serious illness. How could these casual cultivators do anything about it? It's really a disease that goes to the doctor indiscriminately. An elder of a sect, at least a monk in the foundation-building stage, seems to be unable to sit back and relax even if he reaches a higher realm.
Lu Xiaotian focused on the sect mission of Lingxiao Palace. It was also related to collecting spiritual herbs, but most of them were different from the spiritual herbs required by Qingdan Palace, and there were also several more ores. Lingxiao Palace ranks seventeenth among the immortal sects. It is above average and quite powerful.
After comparing the major immortal sects, Lu Xiaotian targeted Qingdan Palace and Lingxiao Palace. The Qingdan Palace is particularly good at alchemy. Entering the Qingdan Palace, you are more likely to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill. Lingxiao Palace can also make elixirs, but it is not as good as Qingdan Palace, so the possibility of obtaining Foundation Establishment Pills is naturally lower. The biggest goal at this time is to successfully build the foundation. However, there was news about the "Hunyuan Jing" from Lingxiao Palace. There were not many exercises suitable for the Five Elements spiritual roots. If he could obtain the "Hunyuan Jing", he did not want to easily switch to other exercises.
Soon Lu Xiaotian shook his head and smiled bitterly. It was not easy to complete any of the Immortal Sect tasks, let alone completing two at the same time. If other casual cultivators knew his thoughts I'm afraid I'll laugh my ass off. We will see opportunities later to see which sect we can join.
After initially locking in the Xianmen mission, he had almost bought all the things he needed to buy. Lu Xiaotian returned to the small courtyard. When he arrived at the door, Luo Qing was already waiting there. Judging from his expression, he might have been waiting for a while. time.
"Brother Lu, you are back." After seeing Lu Xiaotian, Luo Qing's anxious face suddenly showed a hint of joy.
“Why are you so anxious to see me?” Lu Xiaotian asked.
Luo Qing said, "Another master in our team who is at the sixth level of Qi Refining is the captain of this team. He decided to enter the Wangyue Mountains in advance. My brother is undecided now, so let me ask Ask you."
"The time was not agreed upon, why was it advanced for no reason?" Lu Xiaotian frowned and said, if this team is completely decided by the captain, then it is okay not to join.
Luo Qing said, "Perhaps he got the news related to his Immortal Sect mission and was worried that others would get ahead of him, so he made this decision. However, that person held the prescription of Vitality Pill, so My brother asked me to ask your opinion.”
Lu Xiaotian's expression changed and he asked, "Vitality Pill? Where are they now?"
"They are in our courtyard. I will take you there right now." Seeing Lu Xiaotian relent, Luo Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother, I'm back." Soon, the two came to the small courtyard where Luo Yuan was, and Luo Qing shouted from a few feet away.
"Brother Lu, you are here too. Come on, let me introduce you to the members of the team."
Luo Yuanyuan was very happy that Lu Xiaotian could come, and pointed at a middle-aged man with a fair complexion. Taoist priest, "This is our team leader this time, Taoist Master Fan Qing, who is the most powerful."
Through Luo Yuan's introduction, Lu Xiaotian got to know the members of the team.
Wang Yuan, a plump young woman with a cultivation level equal to his and at the fifth level of Qi refining.
Two men in their forties, with shiny heads, the bald one is Zhang Guang, and the middle-aged Confucian scholar next to him holding a fan is Zheng Shiqi. According to Luo Yuan’s introduction, Zhang Guang is A great general from a secular kingdom called the Kingdom of Jin used to command thousands of troops, and a murderous aura could be felt in him from a distance. Zheng Shiqi used to be Zhang Guang's military advisor, so it was a miracle that both of them were able to enter the path of immortality. The cultivation base is slightly lower than him, fourth level of Qi refining. Both of them and Luo Yuan live in this courtyard, and they have a good relationship with them.
"Haha, I have long heard Brother Luo say that he knows an extremely skilled alchemist, but he lives in seclusion and has never had the opportunity to meet him. I didn't expect him to be such a young young man. Not only is he an alchemist, but his cultivation is also amazing. You are one level higher than me, Lao Zhang, I really don’t know how you practice.”
Zhang Guang was very bold, and slapped Lu Xiaotian’s shoulder with his thick palm, his fingers like iron hooks. The pain made Lu Xiaotian grin.
"Brother Zhang, you are using too much strength." Zheng Shiqi reminded. In the secular country, Zhang Guang had offended many people in the officialdom because of his straight temper and hot temper. If Zheng Shiqi hadn't reminded him, he would have If he steps into the path of immortality again, he may have already died in the strife of official circles.
"Sorry, sorry, I made the iron sand palm before, so it is a bit stronger." Zhang Guang smiled apologetically and said quickly.
“Not only is it a little bigger, but the bones will break if you exert more force.” Lu Xiaotian rubbed his shoulders and said. Although he was already at the fifth level of Qi refining, his physical strength was not as strong as Zhang Guang, who used to practice external martial arts. Naturally, there is a huge gap between people.
