Chapter 856 Alchemist Jian
In the city lord's palace, Li Qing sat on a futon. Just as he sat down, he felt a sense of mental clarity, and all the distracting thoughts in his heart faded away.
In this state, it is of great help to comprehend some Taoist teachings, and it is even possible to enter a state of enlightenment.
Seeing Li Qing's slightly surprised expression, the city lord said with a smile: "This is a futon woven from the branches and leaves of the Jade Clear Spirit Tree. It was made by a female cultivator in the transformation stage who is proficient in the music of the soul. If you want If so, you can take this futon away.”
Unexpectedly, without saying anything when he came in, the city lord actually asked to give him a generous gift, which made Li Qing a little flattered.
However, he still refused the offer.
"No reward for no merit, I accept the kindness of my seniors!"
The Lord of Xuangu City chuckled and said: "This is not a generous gift. I have lived for nearly eight thousand years, so I still have some wealth."
In this regard, Li Qing still did not accept this kindness.
Although this Enlightenment Futon has some wonderful uses, it can clear the mind and calm the Qi, but it is not something important to him.
Even if you really want it, you may not be able to refine it yourself in the future, so there is no need to owe a favor for this little thing.
Upon seeing this, the Lord of Lingxu City said nothing more, but changed the subject and said: "My little friend has just ascended to the spirit world, there must be many things that are not clear, right?"
Hearing this, Li Qing nodded quickly and said, "Senior Lingxu, please give me some advice."
Li Qing still respects this 8,000-year-old master of the Void Refining Stage. Even some common sense in the other person's eyes is very important to him.
"Generally speaking, after monks from the lower world ascend to the spiritual world, the first thing they need to do is take the Dust Falling Pill to wash away the breath of the lower world and integrate themselves with the heaven and earth of the spiritual world as soon as possible."
"Do you know why this is?"
This was the first time Li Qing had heard of this statement. Although he noticed that he was somewhat incompatible with the spiritual world, it did not have much impact on his practice, so he never cared about it.
He thought it was just his first time here, and that as time went by, this feeling of being out of place would naturally fade away, but he didn't expect that there was something special about it.
"This starts with the Heavenly Tribulation. My friend, if you have been able to practice to the stage of divine transformation, you should have experienced the Heavenly Tribulation in the lower realm, right?" the Lord of Lingxu City said.
"Of course I have experienced it more than once. Could it be that in addition to breaking through the realm, there will be other disasters in the spiritual world?" Li Qing asked with confusion.
The Lord of Lingxu City smiled mysteriously and said: "After arriving in the spirit world, you should be able to feel that the passage of your life span has become extremely slow, right?"
"When you reach the Void Refining Stage, you will no longer worry about the day when your life span will be exhausted, and you can truly achieve immortality!"
Hearing this, Li Qing's eyes showed a look of surprise. Although he had already enjoyed the status of immortality, he was still very surprised by this.
You can live forever in the world during the Void Refining Stage. Isn't this a bit too simple?
"Of course there are restrictions, otherwise the high-level monks in the spiritual world would have disappeared long ago."
"When you reach the Divine Transformation Stage, you have to go through a minor catastrophe every three hundred years, and after you advance to the Void Refining Stage, you have to go through a major catastrophe every three thousand years!"
"These heavenly tribulations are becoming more severe each time. If you have not advanced to the next big realm after three or four times, you will most likely die in the heavenly tribulation."
Sure enough!
Li Qing suddenly understood, and he knew that immortality was not a simple matter, and there were quite a few limitations in it.
"My little friend, you encountered an accident on the way to ascension, and the mana you can use in your body fell to the Nascent Soul stage. Therefore, it is a blessing that it did not cause a natural disaster."
"Generally, monks like you who have not taken enough dust-reducing pills to wash away the breath of the lower world will encounter disasters that are several times more violent and last for an extremely long time."
"When you recover from your injuries in the future, you should face the first disaster."
The master of Lingxu City said to Li Qing seriously.
"From this point of view, the accident I encountered on the way to ascension is really a lucky thing."
"I dare to ask, senior, how to obtain this dust-falling pill? Is there an alchemist in the city who can refine this pill?"
Li Qing immediately asked sincerely. He didn't want to face a catastrophe that was far beyond what he could handle after recovering his mental power.
The Lord of Lingxu City did not show off and told Li Qing directly: "Hahaha, the recipe for Falling Dust Pill is not a secret in the spiritual world. Many alchemists know how to refine this pill."
"There happens to be a fifth-level alchemist in the city named Old Man Jian. You can visit him later. He has a mild temper and is easy to talk to."
This was really important information. Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, Senior Lingxu, for your advice!"
"Speaking of which, the war in the city has just calmed down, and our human race has made considerable achievements in the war. The rewards from the Giant Spirit Race will come in a while."
"Perhaps, for the first time in history, my human race will be given a few places to enter the Tianguang Secret Realm. If you recover from your injuries and regain all your magic power, I will give you a place."
Tianguang Secret Realm, Li Qinggang wanted to ask what kind of place it was, and the Lord of Lingxu City explained it to him.
"This is a secret realm that can only be entered by the four powerful tribes in the Tonggu Continent. Every time it is opened, each tribe will send Nascent Soul and tribesmen who have cultivated in the God Transformation stage to enter it."
"In the secret territory of Tianguang, there are many ruins from ancient times and even ancient times. There are many opportunities among them. There was even a Qingluan nest found inside. Even if it is abandoned, it is quite amazing."
"In addition, there is a condensed light lake within the secret territory of Tianguang. This lake attracts the essence of the sun, moon and starlight. Soaking in it once can change the bones, strengthen the physique, and even increase the potential of cultivating Taoism."< br>
"Even if you don't get any other gains, just taking a dip in the Ningguang Lake is still a lot of benefits, and it will help you advance to the Void Refining Stage in the future."
Li Qing's eyes lit up slightly when he heard that there were so many benefits, but he quickly rubbed his chin again and asked:
"I dare to ask Senior Lingxu, how were the casualties of those who entered the Tianguang Secret Realm in the past?"
The Lord of Lingxu City did not expect that this was what Li Qing was going to ask. This cautious attitude broke some of his perceptions of the Ascended Ones.
According to legend, most of the monks who ascended from the lower world are more amazing and more talented than the last. They are true geniuses. It is not an exaggeration to say that they can swallow thousands of miles like a tiger.
Even though there is an endless distance from the main continent of the human race, the Lord of Lingxu City knows the deeds of many ascended people, all of which are extremely glorious and dazzling.
"Well, in terms of casualties, because in the past, the four powerful tribes who entered the Tianguang Secret Realm, that is, the giant spirit tribe and the tree spirit tribe would have fierce conflicts, but there were very few deaths."
"But if our human race gets a quota this time, the situation may be a little different. After all, in this Tonggu Continent, our human race does not have a decent backer."
Having said this, Lord Lingxu smiled mockingly to himself.
Li Qing said solemnly: "Senior's protection of a human race is extremely admirable. Such achievements are enough to be famous throughout the ages."
"Hahaha, just stop saying flattering words. It will still be a few years before the secret realm of light opens. During this period, you can recover from your injuries as soon as possible, and then think carefully about whether to enter the secret realm." To be honest, for that secret realm, It is impossible for Li Qing not to be moved by the Ningguang Lake. After all, it may be a little help for him to advance to the Void Refining Stage in the future.
But even if he recovers from his injuries, he will only be in the early stage of divine transformation. In the secret realm of light, he will probably have to face other existences in the later stage of divine transformation.
This matter really needs to be carefully considered.
In this way, Li Qing bid farewell to the Lord of Lingxu City. He descended from the City Lord's Mansion in the sky and came to a huge monument in the city.
This huge monument is very strange. As long as you touch it with your hands or touch it with your spiritual consciousness, you can sense a large amount of information.
These contents are all tasks issued by the city, including those issued by the city lord's palace and others. Most of the rewards are merit points, and a few are settled with other spiritual objects.
[Collect the Fire Spirit Essence from the fifth floor of the Fire Domain. One Fire Spirit Essence can be exchanged for 20,000 merit points! 】
[Reward mission: Kill the human traitor Li Fengyuan, who is in the late stage of becoming a god. As long as the body is not seen, you will get 70,000 merit points! 】
[Collect any three natal feathers of fifth-level demon birds, each with 20,000 merit points! 】
【.】
Looking along the way, Li Qing also had a practical understanding of the value conversion of merit points.
The above difficult tasks involving the stage of transformation into gods only reward tens of thousands of merit points, which shows how precious their value is.
"It seems that the stall owner's Lihuo Xuanyu gave me 30,000 merit points, and there is still a lot of room for bargaining."
"Look back and see if you can win it with 10,000 merit points!"
It is also very simple to accept these tasks. You only need to introduce your own breath into the token, and then press on the task monument to select the task you want to accept.
At that time, the contribution points will also be put into the token, which is very convenient.
In Xuangu City, the token given when entering the city is very important. It is not only a thing to prove identity, but also a key thing to be used in transactions.
And if any serious crime is committed in the city, the aura will be recorded by the formation in the city, and it will be difficult to sneak into the city even if the aura is changed in the future. Of course, there is a high probability that people who commit serious crimes will have a hard time leaving alive.
Watching all the way, Li Qing actually saw several weapon refining tasks.
However, the contribution points given were not many, only a few hundred points. They were all treasure refining tasks issued by several monks in the alchemy stage, and they wanted to invite the weapon refiner to take action.
Li Qing was not in a hurry to take it. He silently wrote down several weapon refining tasks, and then left the square where the task monument was located.
"First go find the alchemist named Jian and ask him how many contribution points are needed to refine the Dust Falling Pill."
Before leaving, the Lord of Lingxu City had told Li Qing the location of the man. He was in a cave in the inner city.
The inner city of Xuan Ancient City has a quieter environment. You can even see dozens of artificial mountain islands suspended in the air. There are caves in the suspended island mountains, all of which have been opened up and leased to the outside world.
As soon as he approached the inner city, Li Qing felt a strong spiritual energy coming towards him.
"It should be almost comparable to the sixth level spiritual veins. This city is really a geomantic treasure." Li Qing clicked his tongue and looked at the suspended peaks and islands in sequence.
Finally, he found the cave of the alchemist named Jian on a mountain that looked like a small bowl with a flip-top cover.
"I, Li Qing, came to pay a visit to Master Jian. I don't know."
Before he could finish his words, the cave was unlocked and a strong aroma of elixir rushed out.
Li Qing smelled this smell and knew he had found the wrong person.
He stepped into the cave and saw a few wisps of green smoke floating around the stone pillars. A thin old man with thick hair was facing an incense burner and silently reciting some scripture.
Not long after, before Li Qing could speak, the old man turned his back to Li Qing and said:
"The meridian is broken. Are you here to reconnect it?"
"I see that you are full of qi and blood and have a strong physical body. There happens to be a kind of tiger and wolf medicine that is suitable for you. It's called Dragon Tiger Sustaining Vein Pill. The effect of the medicine is surprisingly good, but the impact on the physical body is a bit strong. I think you should be able to withstand it. .”
Even before Li Qing said his purpose, the old man could see the injuries in his body.
But even so, this person is only in the spirit transformation stage after all, and until he reaches the void refining stage, it is still impossible to observe that the aura on his body is not integrated with this world.
"Ahem, although my injury is also very serious, before connecting the meridians, I would like to ask Master Jian how many contribution points you need to refine a furnace of Dust-falling Pills."
Upon hearing that Li Qing wanted the Dust Falling Pill, Master Jian suddenly turned around, with a strange color in his somewhat cloudy eyes. He looked at Li Qing carefully up and down, and then said:
< br>
"Oh?"
"What you want is the Dust Falling Pill? Could it be that you are the Ascended One that has been rumored in the city just now?"
Li Qing smiled dryly and said: "If no other monk has ascended to the city recently, it should be me."
While looking at Li Qing, Master Jian exclaimed in wonder: "It's really rare that one can see ascended people in this remote and ruined place. Even in Tianyuan Continent, it would probably take thousands of years for one or two ascended people to appear." ?”
"Yeah, but even if you are an ascended person, I won't give you any discount in making alchemy!"
"The Falling Dust Pill is a fifth-level elixir. Although the refining technique is not difficult, you still have to follow the rules. I want to refine a batch of fifth-level elixirs, and I need this number!"
As he spoke, Master Jian raised five fingers.
Five thousand merit points! This alchemist is really dark! Li Qing thought in his heart.
"If you don't have any elixirs for refining elixirs, I can provide them. I happen to have some elixirs on hand for refining dust-falling elixirs."
"But, the price has to be calculated separately. Although it is not precious, it is not common either."
Alchemist Jian chuckled lightly, his face looking very kind.
Looking at this scene, Li Qing was silent for a while.
This person is indeed easy to talk to, but he only talks about merit points!
