Chapter 855 The City Lord Invites
The word "Ascendant" exclaimed by the city guard sergeant attracted the attention of many people at the city gate. They all cast their eyes on Li Qing and looked at Li Qing in amazement.
Li Qing was a little uncomfortable with these looks. He did not expect that the fact that he was an ascended person would cause such a big sensation.
"Senior turned out to be an ascendant. The Tonggu Continent has not seen an ascendant for countless years." The city guarding sergeant muttered to himself in shock.
The rest of the bystanders also started talking:
"It's unbelievable. Generally speaking, monks who ascend from the lower world shouldn't land in Tianyuan Continent?"
"It seems that this senior had an accident during his ascension, which led to him landing in us. "Tonggu Continent"
"I have heard about ascending from the lower world. The monks who come up are all extremely talented and determined, and will be able to achieve great achievements in the future."
"Isn't this a lie? How do I feel about this person's appearance? Nothing special.”
“.”
From the reaction of the defenders and the comments from the people around him, Li Qing finally knew.
In fact, in the spiritual world, the gold content of ascended people is really high, representing high achievements on the road in the future.
Imagine that if you can practice to the stage of divine transformation in the harsh environment of the lower realm and ascend to the upper realm, then you will probably be more at home in the prosperous environment of the spiritual world.
In fact, many ascendants who ascended from the lower world to the spirit world did achieve great results in the end. As long as no accidents occurred, they could at worst advance to the Void Refining Stage.
For a time, many people in the city looked at Li Qing in a strange way, with admiration and respect in their eyes, and even a bit of fanaticism.
"Senior, you can wander around the city as you like. I will report this matter right away!" After the city guard sergeant finished speaking, he excitedly rushed into the city.
Li Qing opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing else. He quickly entered the city and disappeared into the sea of people.
Not long after, Li Qing appeared in a market in Xuangu City dedicated to the trading of immortal cultivators.
There are many stalls and some shop fronts in the market. The spiritual energy here is particularly strong, and it is close to the level of fifth-level spiritual veins.
Being here, Li Qing could even feel that the injuries in his body were recovering a little faster.
"As expected of the spirit world, even a small border town has such rich immortal resources, many of which I can't even recognize."
Li Qing clicked his tongue and sighed in his heart, he He glanced at some stalls in the market and found that many elixirs were rare varieties that had been extinct in the lower world for many years.
“Yang marrow root is an elixir that can only grow in some extremely sunny places. The rhizomes of this elixir are of high value and can be used in elixirs and medicines, or they can also be swallowed raw.”
< br>“Taking a sufficient amount can not only improve your physical fitness, but can even create a nutrient-rich body in your body. The yang energy can restrain most evil and yin things, which is comparable to the pure yang body created by nature."
"Purple pole polygonatum, it is a pity that it is not old enough, otherwise it can condense the bamboo dew and drip it. Entering the eyes can give the eyes a natural pupil technique, which can break the void. ”
There was a dazzling array of things on display in the market, and Li Qing was a little dizzy when he saw them, wishing he could collect them all.
He walked to a stall and asked: "Fellow Taoist, how can I sell this yang marrow root? Can it be traded with spiritual stones?"
The stall owner is a body refiner. His attainments in body refining are exaggerated. He has already reached the peak of the fourth level. He is only one step away from attaining the fifth level physical body, which is comparable to that of a great demon transformed into a god.
"Haha, this senior is joking. If it is for other things, it can naturally be traded with spiritual stones, and this yang marrow root was picked from the third layer of fire domain at the risk of my life."
“I want to exchange this thing for a drop of blood essence, it must be the blood essence of a monster with true spirit bloodline!”
Hearing this, Li Qing almost rolled his eyes.
There is no difference between asking for the essence and blood of a true spirit descendant, and directly asking for the essence and blood of a true spirit.
These existences are all extremely terrifying existences, and they are extremely powerful. If you want them to shed a drop of blood, they must at least be of the same level.
This man was not sincere. Li Qing shook his head and went to visit other stalls. Anyway, he was not in urgent need of the yang marrow root. He just asked with the mentality of giving it a try.
Soon, Li Qing discovered a stall filled with various spiritual materials and gold.
The stall owner folded his hands on his chest and was concentrating with his eyes closed, not caring about his business at all.
Several of the spiritual materials are valuable and can even be used as the main materials for refining spiritual treasures.
However, there was one piece of spiritual material that caught his attention. It was a piece of red jade the size of a human head, with many patterns engraved on it, as if it were naturally generated.
"After watching for so long, do you see any clues?" the stall owner said abruptly.
Hearing this, Li Qing just shook his head and said: "It's very strange, some look like Lihuo Xuanyu, but these patterns make me unsure."
The stall owner saw that Li Qing had revealed some knowledge and knew that he was a knowledgeable person, so he said:
"You are right, this is indeed a piece of Lihuo Xuanyu, but unfortunately, the spirituality of this jade I don’t know which guy who killed a thousand swords used it to engrave this There are some patterns.”
“I suspect that these patterns have some secrets, and may even be a kind of fire magic.”
At this time, Li Qing realized that this stall owner turned out to be a man. The magic power of monks in the god-transformation stage should not be weak.
“May I ask where you got this thing?” Li Qing asked curiously.
But the stall owner shook his head and said: "I got this from a trader, but I don't know the specific origin. At that time, I thought that this piece of Lihuo Xuanyu still had spirituality, and I wanted to use it to sacrifice my life treasure. , I didn’t expect it.”
At this point, the stall owner showed a look of gritted teeth.
“If you want it, I’ll sell you thirty thousand merit points.”
Merit points?
Li Qing was slightly stunned. He still didn’t know what it was, but he could probably guess that it should be something similar to the sect’s contribution.
But he has just arrived, so there is no merit to be traded!
And he has not yet figured out the value of thirty thousand merit, so naturally it is impossible for him to agree to it.
"Ahem, I wonder how to obtain these merit points? What are their uses?" Li Qing coughed and asked awkwardly.
The stall owner narrowed his eyes, and then said: "You are not a human race from Tonggu Continent? How come you don't even know this?"
"Yes, I just came to Tonggu Continent. Soon, I just entered the city today, please let my fellow Taoist know clearly. "Li Qing didn't say that he was an ascended monk anymore, he just said that he had just arrived in the mainland, so as not to cause any surprise.
The stall owner shook his head and explained patiently: "It's strange that in addition to those cross-continent traveling merchants who are desperate for their lives, there are still people coming to Tonggu Continent."
"If you want to get merit points, There are many ways to accept some tasks issued by the city, and set up a stall to sell things like me."
"Of course, the fastest way is to make great achievements in the war. "As long as you have enough merit points, you can exchange for what you want in the city. Spiritual materials and objects can be traded, and you can also go to the Giant Spirit King City to exchange for more precious things."
“Someone once even obtained the remains of a true spirit descendant from the Giant Spirit King’s City, and used it to refine a heaven-reaching spiritual treasure!”
Li Qing's eyes lit up when he heard this. He didn't expect that this merit point would be so useful.
In fact, this is a reward method set up by the giant spirits to encourage all races that vassal them to work hard to achieve military exploits and contribute more in the war.
This powerful clan has a long heritage and even has a Mahayana ancestor in the clan. Its immortal resources are absolutely astonishing!
Suppressing the restlessness in his heart for the time being, Li Qing asked again: "Do traveling merchants from other continents often come to Xuan Ancient City to do business? I want to know where did you get this Lihuo Xuan Jade from? "Traded from the hands of merchants?"
The stall owner explained: "It's not common. Except for a few merchants, the merchant team is relatively stable. Often, after the small caravans come once, they never show up again. ”
"Crossing the continent is not an easy task, and there will be too many accidents."
In the end, Li Qing still did not trade the Lihuo Xuanyu, but he inquired again, I learned that the other party will not leave in the next short time and will always set up a stall here to do business.
After leaving Fangshi, the Xuanhuang True Flame in his body could no longer be suppressed.
"Li Qing! Why don't you buy the Lihuo jade now? What if it is bought by someone else?!"
"I'm sure, those Dao patterns on it It is definitely left by Tianjun, there is no way he can admit his mistake!”
Hearing this, Li Qing rolled his eyes and said, "I would like to buy it, but I have to have enough merit points."
"How about I sell you and take a look? Can the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire that gave birth to Lingzhi be exchanged for 30,000 to 50,000 merits? I will buy it when the time comes."
As soon as these words came out, Xuanhuang Zhenyan finally calmed down and suppressed his restlessness. Come down.
Yes, the reason why Li Qing asked and cared about the Lihuo Xuanyu before was because of the Xuanhuang True Flame.
It felt the aura of Scarlet Huang Tianjun from it, and was very sure that those patterns were left by Scarlet Huang Tianjun.
As for whether he can discover anything from it, it can only depend on whether his "Red Glory Burning Heaven Technique" can arouse some resonance from it.
"Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you think of a way to earn merit points quickly! Don't let others get there first!" Xuanhuang Zhenyan couldn't help but urge again.
Li Qing shook his head and said: "Don't worry, the spirituality in the Lihuo Xuanyu has been used to condense the patterns. It can no longer be used to refine treasures. The value is no longer high, and it is difficult to sell it. Out.”
"And if you wait longer, there might be room for bargaining. Didn't you hear him say that he won't leave soon?"
He planned to settle in the city first and figure out the value of the merit points. Anyway, think of a way to do it.
Just when Li Qing was about to go to the city to see where he would receive the mission, there was a sudden wave of aura in the sky.
I saw a group of sergeants riding flying war horses landing in front of Li Qing. These people were different from the city guard sergeants. Their temperament was more serious. The armors on their bodies were all magic weapons, and they also took care of body training. The monk!
"Senior, we are the city lord's imperial guards, and we only obey the city lord's orders."
"The city lord invites you to go to the city lord's mansion. Is it convenient now?"
The city lord invites you!
Li Qing did not expect that his arrival would alert the strongest people in Xuan Ancient City so quickly, which surprised him.
And he was also a little curious about how these guards found him accurately. You must know that he has been hiding his presence since entering the city, so it is difficult for others to track his whereabouts, and he did not notice anyone along the way. track.
Seemingly seeing Li Qing’s doubts, the Imperial Guard explained:
“Senior, I don’t know something. The formation in the city can sense the breath of each token after it enters the city. As long as senior brings it with him, we can use it to find his location."
So, Li Qing understood slightly, then nodded: "Okay, you can lead the way."
Li Qing followed these imperial guards into the sky. The city lord's palace was actually in the sky. There was an island hidden in the clouds and the aura was unusually rich.
After entering the empty island, a middle-aged man slowly walked out of the city lord's mansion.
When Li Qing saw this person for the first time, he felt horrified in his heart. He realized that this person seemed to be integrated with the entire world, and his breath did not exist at all.
"Hahahaha, it is indeed an ascender from the lower realm. The aura on his body has not been completely assimilated to this world."
"My friend, it seems that the journey to ascension is quite thrilling. Although the realm is He has not fallen, but many meridians in his body have been severed. If not repaired in time, his own foundation may be affected. ”
The middle-aged man laughed heartily, directly revealing Li Qing's truth.
Needless to say, this man is the strongest man in Xuan Ancient City!
"Li Qing, I have met my senior!" Li Qing naturally treated a monk whose level of cultivation was higher than his own with extremely high courtesy.
This is the strongest human race he has ever seen in his life, and he is also a monk who protects the human race in this place and deserves his respect.
The middle-aged man waved his hand and said: "Little friend Li Qing, there is no need to be polite. I think it won't take long for you to catch up with me after you have fully recovered."
< br>
"Ascended people from the lower world will be treated with high courtesy no matter which continent they are placed on."
This is the first time Li Qing has heard of this statement. He did not expect that he would ascend. Being a person is quite popular, but I thought I would be discriminated against or suppressed by the native human race in the spirit world.
Obviously, he really misunderstood.
Perhaps this was the case a long time ago, but as more and more ascendants ascended to the spirit world, these ascenders showed amazing potential, which caused the entire native human race in the spirit world to change. Some attitude.
“My little friend, you don’t know something. If you ascend to Tianyuan Continent, you will even receive more care. Even those long-established immortal families will throw olive branches to you.”
"But since you have come to our Xuan Ancient City, as the lord of this city, I will not treat you badly!"
"Come, please come into the house to talk!"
This person The middle-aged city lord was very hospitable and directly invited Li Qing into his mansion.
"Then it's better to obey orders than to be respectful." Li Qing clasped his fists again.
