Although Mr. Cao has a carefree temperament, it is related to a second-level secret realm that has been anchored, so he still negotiated with Li Qing and signed a legal contract.
Li Qing glanced at Jiang Minghe and Zhou Hanguang from the corner of his eye and saw that they looked calm and showed no resentment, so he signed the legal deed.
Zhenren Cao breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand and placed a ban, leaving only the two of them, and then talked about the third cooperation that Li Qing decided to make.
Li Qing couldn't help but frown slightly: "Refining the Foundation Building Pill?!"
Zhenren Cao nodded slightly: "I communicated with fellow Taoist Liu He. He said that with fellow Taoist's attainments, refining Making the Foundation Building Pill is no longer a problem, all that is missing is a Foundation Building Pill recipe..."
Li Qing: Actually, I don’t lack any prescription pills either.
He was a little suspicious that the other party was fishing: "It's not that there is no Xuan Palace, ah no, with the permission of the imperial court, you are not allowed to refine the foundation building pill privately?"
Zhenren Cao sneered: "In the past Mr. Dao is in charge of the cardinal, so no one dares not to listen. But now, it’s just the royal family, huh..."
Li Qing’s heart moved slightly.
After all, since Xuan Gong took the initiative to draw a clear line, the court currently does not even have a Nascent Soul True Lord.
Even though there are still a few veteran Jiedan masters in charge, their momentum is far less than before. That's why he was embarrassed this time and asked Li Qing to collect taxes.
"It's just that even though Xuan Palace doesn't care about worldly affairs, there are still many princes in the court who have formed pills. The Tanyuan Xiancheng family doesn't care about their great career, but I, the Li family, can't afford to offend them."
Zhenren Cao laughed: "Even so, the law does not blame everyone. Fellow Taoist, you know, now Is the imperial court taking the lead in breaking the rules? "
"A few days ago, I received a secret report that several major pill-building families in the court, as well as the foundation-building family, have opened their alchemy furnaces to refine foundation-building pills. "
Li Qing was shocked: "Are they crazy?!"
It should be noted that the reason why Chixiao Daojun strictly controlled the foundation-building pills before was because they were related to the fate of the country. Excessive refining would lead to unpredictable consequences.
Zhenren Cao sneered and said: "Because the royal family took the lead in this matter, and it has naturally become a trend."
"Fellow Taoist, I am afraid that the taxes you have paid have not yet been paid. After entering the treasury, you will directly enter the alchemy furnace."
Li Qing couldn't help but be silent.
This news really shocked him.
He was silent for a moment, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "I wonder what the cooperation that brother mentioned is like?"
Seeing his move, Master Cao handed over a Dharma deed: "Fellow Taoist, please take a look."
Li Qing's spiritual consciousness scanned and found that the conditions were very different from Gu Changsheng's.
It was Tan Yuan Xiancheng who gave him a pill recipe and provided the materials at the same time. Every time a furnace is refined and three or more pills are produced, the Li family can intercept one.
Li Qingxin said: If you have too many lice, you won’t be itchy; if you have too many debts, you won’t have to worry. Having simply agreed to Gu Changsheng, it would not be a bad idea to cooperate with Tanyuan Immortal City again.
Having made up his mind, he no longer hesitated: "I agree to this matter. But there is one thing. If I gather the elixir materials by myself, the refined elixir belongs to me."
Zhenren Cao smiled and nodded: " This is natural. But the orders from my fairy city should be refined first."
Li Qing agreed.
The two parties quickly signed another legal deed, which was kept extremely confidential. Even Li Yu, Jiang and Tuesday did not know about it.
Zhenren Cao put away a legal deed with satisfaction, and then handed over a prescription for elixirs.
Li Qing took it and took a look. The elixirs on it were very familiar: "Xuanyang Ginseng, Yin Ganoderma, Chongmingcao, Xuanshui Essence, Xuan Snake Slough, this is..." Master Cao nodded: "Yes, This is the foundation-building elixir that Fellow Daoist Liu He pressed at the bottom of the box."
Li Qing couldn't help but be stunned: "Tan Yuan Immortal City should be there. You should have your own elixir recipe, why..."
Zhenren Cao smiled and said: "Each foundation-building elixir recipe has its own characteristics. It cannot be discovered by practicing Qi or even foundation building, but above the elixir-formation , but he is very knowledgeable."
Li Qing suddenly realized: This is probably to keep it secret, just in case something happens, so that he can shirk responsibility.
This is human nature. He was not dissatisfied. He just wondered: "I wonder why Fellow Daoist Liu gave this elixir to others?"
A chicken that lays golden eggs is illiterate. Even an old woman would be reluctant to sell it.
Zhenren Cao smiled: "Fellow Daoist Liu is reluctant to part with it, but some people want to use this to find a future."
Li Qing's mind flashed back to Liu He's previous practice of building the foundation pill, and suddenly, The accident caused the quality of the finished elixir to deteriorate, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, It's also his family's misfortune..."
Zhenren Cao was noncommittal, and took out three more foundation-building pill materials from the storage bag: "It's the first time to refine the foundation-building pill, and the success rate will inevitably be poor. These are my immortal city. Sponsorship for fellow Taoists.”
"If the refining fails, all the materials will be mine. But if it is successful, it will still be stipulated in the legal contract."
Li Qing couldn't ask for it. After all, it is quite troublesome to collect the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
After the two discussed it, the isolation and restriction was lifted.
Li Qing naturally couldn't delay the elixir material being delivered, so he made an excuse to keep Cao Zhenren and his party behind.
And with his help in dealing with Master Qingli, Li Qing felt more confident.

That night, Li Qing held another small banquet in his cave and invited Jiang Minghe and Zhou Hanguang to talk.
Compared with the previous meeting, the two of them were obviously much more reserved.
Li Qing smiled and reassured: "We have been friends for decades. You were my seniors before, so there is no need to be restrained."
Jiang Minghe smiled and said: "The real person is now The Lord of the Blessed Land is Bijiedan. The two of us admire him very much, but it is inevitable that he will feel a little embarrassed.”
Li Qing smiled, did not try to persuade him any more, and asked about the secret realm: "Didn't you mean to occupy it alone and not let the fairy city know about it? Why now..."
Zhou Hanguang shook his head: " It was my imagination that got me wrong. . In fact, the reason why the secret realm was successfully anchored was because of the secret efforts of the three real people in the fairy city."
Li Qing suddenly said: "I said that there are many secrets in that secret realm, and you two can master it. anchor It's too simple."
He paused, and then asked a little curiously: "Then how can we talk about this matter again? It stands to reason that since those three people are helping each other secretly, they will not bring it to the table again. "
Jiang Minghe said with a bitter smile: "The guardian spirit beast was too fierce and would explode at the slightest disagreement, almost shaking the foundation of the secret realm. One of the uncles had no choice but to show up. "
Zhou Hanguang was a little ashamed: "Since our master passed away during the tribulation, we both always felt that someone in the fairy city was targeting us, so we became a little suspicious."
"We didn't know until something happened that the three real people They have not given up on our lineage, and they have taken good care of us secretly. We are also very ashamed."
Li Qing's thoughts changed, and he felt that the previous feelings between the two were not necessarily due to suspicion.
The three real people may have the idea of taking care of the younger generation, but in that secret realm, the Zhuguoshu is half dead, and its value is actually limited.
Even if the two of them asked someone to revive the fruit tree, which produced great value, wouldn’t the secret realm be returned to the Fairy City at any time?
Li Qing had a narcissistic thought: Isn't it just for my sake? (End of this chapter)
