Chapter 289 Golden-winged Spirit Butterfly
“How could there be a foundation-building monk coming to a place like this?”
The spiritual consciousness sensed that there were one man, two women and three foundation-building monks not far away. When the monk arrived, Chu Ning couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
Chun Ning was not interested in contacting others, so he planned to dig up the golden grass and leave directly.
But the next moment, when he saw clearly the actions of several people.
I couldn’t help but feel a little more curious.
At first he thought the other party was walking aimlessly, but after watching for a while he realized it.
A middle-aged monk, the leader of the three, actually flew a butterfly with golden wings.
A few people and the butterfly first picked a spiritual fruit somewhere, and then headed straight towards them.
Chun Ning vaguely guessed something.
Immediately, he put the two already-fed Golden Thunder Eagles into the spirit beast bag.
At the same time, the figure flashed and he also hid himself.
With his cultivation methods, after hiding, let alone several foundation-building monks.
Even if the monks arrive at the late stage of Golden Elixir, they will not be able to sense it.
After a while, the three foundation-building monks came into his sight.
Among the three of them, a man and a woman who looked in their forties were both in the middle stage of foundation building.
The other slightly younger female cultivator is in the early stages of foundation building, and she still looks like she has just established the foundation.
However, Chu Ning's age and appearance are only in his mid-twenties, so his cultivation talent should be pretty good.
At this time, the leading middle-aged monk had already seen the golden grass and suddenly made a sound of joy.
“Golden grass, there are more than ten golden grasses here!
This is great. With these things, our spiritual stones will be enough. "
The middle-aged female cultivator beside the middle-aged monk laughed at the same time.
"In this way, we can also buy a good magic weapon for Xia'er. . "
The three of them are obviously a family of three. When the young female cultivator named Xia'er heard this, a look of joy appeared on her face.
"Dad, it's all thanks to you this time. I got a golden-winged spirit butterfly and could sense the metallic elixir breath.
Otherwise, even if most of the spirit beasts are hidden before the opening of Snow Mist Valley, we may not have such a harvest. "
After the young female cultivator named Xia'er finished speaking, the middle-aged monk nodded and said:
"Well, there will be some subtle changes in the surrounding area a year before the Snow Fog Valley opens. The changes can be felt by nearby high-level spiritual beasts.
We also know that a large number of monks will enter soon, so most of them will leave.
This is no secret in the Fairy City of Iceland. In a few months, a large number of monks will come here to search for elixirs.
We took the risk to come here first, and with the help of the Golden Winged Spirit Butterfly, the harvest will naturally be higher.
After picking these golden grasses, we hurried back to avoid unnecessary branches. "
While the three of them were talking, they had already arrived in front of the golden grass, and they were about to pick the golden grass.
At this moment, the middle-aged man with the highest cultivation level among the three The monk suddenly felt something.
But before he could react, the three of them noticed a figure in blue robes in front of them.
Then they saw a young-looking figure. The man who went too far reached out and grabbed a golden-winged spirit butterfly in the air.
The usually extremely fast golden-winged spirit butterfly wanted to flap its wings and fly away, but the young man in blue robe had something in his hand. The suction power is average.
The golden-winged spirit butterfly cannot move at all, but it has fallen into its hands.
"You..."
That name is called. When the young female cultivator for Xia'er saw this scene, she was about to open her mouth, but the next moment she swallowed her words directly.
But at this moment, looking at the young monk who was several years younger than herself, he suddenly exuded an aura that made her heart palpitate.
Golden elixir monk!
When Chu Ning's aura was released, how could the three of them not know Chu Ning's cultivation level.
The middle-aged male cultivator immediately winked at his wife and daughter, and then took the lead in bowing and saluting:
"I have seen the seniors, but the three juniors did not know that the seniors were picking here. The elixir is so offensive.
Senior, please forgive me, we will leave now."
As he spoke, the middle-aged monk wanted to step back.
“Wait!”
Hearing this, the middle-aged monk’s expression changed slightly, but he did not dare to move at all.
Chun Ning looked at the golden-winged spirit butterfly in his hand with some curiosity at this moment, and then glanced at the three of them slightly.
"Listening to what you just said, it seems that I picked up a lot of metallic elixirs with this little thing when I went into the mountain this time.
Take them all out."
Hearing Chu When Ning said this, the expressions of the three people changed drastically at the same time.
The middle-aged male monk was secretly complaining.
This time the family ventured into the snow-capped mountains and finally gained something, but now I am afraid it will be in vain.
However, with this complaint in his heart, the middle-aged monk did not dare to hesitate at all. He reached out and started to take out things from the storage bag.
Although the three members of their family are all Foundation Establishment monks, he, who has the highest level of cultivation, is only at the peak of the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and is still one step away from the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
As for the young monk in front of him, he couldn't even see through it.
But the aura on his body that was much stronger than that of ordinary early-stage golden elixir monks was telling him.
This person is definitely not an ordinary early-stage golden elixir monk.
Seeing this move of the middle-aged monk, a look of anxiety flashed across the face of Xia'er, as she was called from behind.
However, under the constant reminders from the eyes of the middle-aged female cultivator, she just bit her lips tightly and did not make a sound.
Chun Ning saw the expressions of the three of them, but didn't say anything more.
He just focused his attention on the various elixirs that the middle-aged male monk took out from his storage bag.
There are more than ten kinds of various elixirs, spiritual plants, and spiritual fruits, some with only two plants, and some with dozens of plants.
And without exception they are all metallic.
Chun Ning just glanced at it and immediately focused on two of them.
One is a plant that looks like an orchid. The flowers are golden yellow, and each petal sparkles with golden light.
The other is golden slender bamboo, which is extremely hard just by looking at it.
The latter has only three roots, while the former has more than twenty.
Chu Ning didn't expect that there were two things in these foundation-building monks that contained Gengjin energy, but he said lightly:
"Is everything you picked here? No. Is there anything else to hide?”
“I don’t dare,” the middle-aged monk said respectfully.
Chun Ning nodded and let out a golden glow, and all these things were rolled into his storage bag.
“These things of yours are not bad, and I am attracted to this little thing as well.”
Although his heart was bleeding at the moment, the middle-aged monk still said respectfully:
“It’s our blessing that the seniors can take a fancy to the younger generation’s things.”
As he spoke, he took out another jade slip from his storage bag
"Senior, this junior also got this golden-winged spiritual butterfly accidentally. The cultivation method of this spiritual butterfly is recorded here."
Chun Ning reached out to take the jade slip and scanned it with his spiritual consciousness. , Sure enough, I saw the method of cultivating this spiritual insect recorded in it, and I was very satisfied with the middle-aged male cultivator's cooperation.
"Okay, it seems that you are still very knowledgeable."
Hearing Chu Ning's words, the middle-aged monk breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said:
"I don't know if the senior has any other explanations.
If not, this junior will resign. "
Compared with the things falling into Chu Ning's hands, the middle-aged monks are more worried about Chu Ning taking action against them.
Although these elixirs are precious, they are nothing compared to life.
Chun Ning did not answer directly, but his eyes fell on the young female cultivator named Xia'er.
Seeing this scene, the middle-aged monk's expression finally changed drastically, and he unconsciously placed his hand on the storage bag.
“I didn’t expect that I would be so cooperative, and this person is still not satisfied.
If this person really wants to take action against Xia’er, he will have to fight tooth and nail even if he has no choice but to do so.”
Naturally, he also knew that many Jindan monks abducted young female cultivators to make cauldrons.
My daughter has good qualifications, but the young man in front of me does not know how old an old monster is.
If you are really taken captive by the other party, your life will be ruined.
Even the middle-aged man who had always been relatively calm behaved like this, let alone the two female nuns.
While their faces were fading, both of them put their hands in their storage bags, obviously ready to take action or escape at any time.
Chun Ning naturally saw this little behavior of the three of them, which made him laugh.
The reason why Chu Ning insists on the three people's things is just to get more Gengjin Qi.
At this moment, Chu Ning didn't care much. He scanned his storage bag with his consciousness and finally found a pair of golden daggers in the corner of the storage bag.
Under the suspicious gazes of the three people, Chu Ning handed over a pair of golden daggers.
“I won’t give you anything for free. Your daughter is practicing metal-based skills and spells.
Although this magic weapon cannot be called top-notch, it is still somewhat powerful, and it should be enough to exchange for the elixirs you exchanged. "
As Chu Ning finished speaking, the expressions of the three people who were nervous just now suddenly became a little stunned.
The middle-aged monk raised his head and looked at Chu Ning's face. When he saw Chu Ning didn't seem to be joking.
Then he gritted his teeth and reached out to take a pair of daggers from Chu Ning's hands.
"Top magical weapons! ”
As soon as he got it, the middle-aged monk felt the level of the magic weapon, and he exclaimed in surprise.
Even as a monk in the middle stage of foundation building, he could only hold it at the moment. It is just an entry-level top-level magic weapon.
But what he has in his hands at this moment is a genuine top-level magic weapon, and it is an extremely precious complete set of magic weapons. This magic weapon is naturally enough to exchange for these elixirs.
You know, in this northern cold land, the price for a casual cultivator to obtain a magic weapon is not small.
After hearing the middle-aged male cultivator's words, the faces of the two female cultivators also flashed with surprise.
Chun Ning was not too surprised when he saw the ecstatic expressions of the three of them.
The three of them were obviously born as rogue cultivators. Compared with large sects or large cultivating immortal families, this kind of rogue cultivators are naturally much weaker in terms of resources.
The pair of daggers he just gave away were obtained by killing Song Feng of the Song family in Thousand Lakes Thousand Islands.
At that time, he had just obtained the Double Fire Ring and the Thunder Bead from the Thunder Fire Sect. In addition, these things were metal magic weapons, so he had not used them.
If he hadn't searched for it specifically just now, he wouldn't even have remembered it.
However, taking out this magical weapon was obviously a big surprise for these three people.
The middle-aged man immediately bowed to Chu Ning and gave a big salute.
“Thank you, senior, for the reward!”
Seeing this, the two female cultivators also quickly bowed and saluted.
"Thank you, senior!" However, after the three of them finished speaking, there was no response. When the three of them raised their heads and looked again, Chu Ning was nowhere to be seen.
The three of them were slightly stunned at first. The next moment, they looked at each other, and joy flashed across their faces at the same time.
"Dad, is this really a top-notch magic weapon? Show it to me quickly!"
The young female cultivator stretched out her hand with anticipation and took the dagger from the middle-aged male cultivator.
Then his face immediately showed excitement.
"What a top-notch magic weapon! This senior is so good, dad, mom, this senior is younger than me, he..."
"Okay, Xia'er, Don't talk about seniors' matters." The middle-aged male cultivator immediately stopped the young female cultivator.
Then he said seriously: "Put this dagger away for dad first. Let's go back quickly. Remember not to mention this matter to others today."
The two female cultivators nodded immediately. .
The three of them left quickly and headed towards the fairy city of Iceland outside the mountains.
At this moment, Chu Ning followed the golden-winged spirit butterfly and continued to explore the snow-capped mountains.
This golden-winged spiritual butterfly was just driven by the middle-aged monk using some secret techniques.
But for Chu Ning, this kind of gadget is simply wiped out.
Then Chu Ning used the driving method he had learned from Jiuhua Sect Qi Guangshou, and the golden-winged spirit butterfly naturally obeyed his command obediently.
"Golden Arrow Fruit, this thing is good. Not only does it have the energy of Geng Metal, it is also good for refining elixirs."
"Enoki Mushrooms can be eaten directly. It’s a pity that there is no Gengjin Qi.”
……
With the help of the golden-winged spirit butterfly, Chu Ning’s search in this mountain range will be much easier.
This thing is indeed very sensitive to metallic elixirs, and can often be detected even from dozens of miles away.
It's even better than Chu Ning's own consciousness.
Walking into the mountains like this, for most of a day, Chu Ning arrived outside a valley.
Looking up, I saw the wind and snow in this valley, shrouded in a layer of white mist, making it impossible to see the scene inside.
As soon as people get closer, they can clearly feel the temperature which is much lower than the outside.
“Snow Mist Valley!”
Chun Ning was looking at this famous treasure land near the Fairy City in Iceland, and couldn’t help but feel a little more curious in his eyes.
“The reason why no one dares to break into this wind and snow is not just because of the cold, it also seems to contain the power of space.”
Chun Ning stayed on Wuling Island for several years , has long been extremely familiar with the power of this space.
So as soon as you get close, you can roughly feel it.
The wind and snow here are filled with the power of space just like the forbidden area of Beast Mountain on Wuling Island.
But perhaps because of the spiritual energy here, the power of this space also contains extremely strong ice-cold power.
After Chu Ning felt it carefully, he found that he seemed to be able to barely resist.
Of course, Chu Ning would not take such a risk without knowing what was going on in the Snow Fog Valley.
Immediately, Chu Ning directed the golden-winged spirit butterfly to bypass the snow-mist valley ahead, and then continued walking deeper into the mountains.
However, the golden-winged spirit butterfly was a little afraid to go deeper.
“Going deeper, the entire mountain range is covered with ice and snow, and the temperature is extremely low.
I am afraid that even ordinary early-stage Jindan monks cannot resist this.
This little After all, the level of the thing is too low. It is only a first-order monster, and it is worse than a second-order monster. It is normal that it cannot bear it."
Chun Ning himself did not feel much discomfort. And the physical strength of the body is far beyond that of the average middle-stage Jindan monk.
Secondly, he is also wearing the ice and fire silk armor that he got from the Thunder Fire Sect ruins.
However, since the Golden Winged Spirit Butterfly could not go any further, Chu Ning had no choice but to return home and still chose to search in relatively peripheral areas.
After wandering around the Xuefeng Mountains for more than ten days, under the guidance of the golden-winged spiritual butterfly, Chu Ning picked a lot of elixirs and fruits.
Relatively speaking, there are fewer metallic materials because the Golden Winged Spirit Butterfly cannot sense them.
Chun Ning used his spiritual sense to detect a few materials, but he did not have the materials he wanted.
Back in the fairy city of Iceland, Chu Ning first went to his cave and planted seven kinds of spiritual plants with Gengjin energy into the spiritual medicine garden.
Then, Chu Ning used the Xuan Qing Hua Technique to make these spiritual plants absorb more metallic spiritual energy.
“With so many spiritual plants, at this rate, I can refine a lot of Gengjin Qi every month.”
Chun Ning nodded with satisfaction.
Immediately, he went straight to Shuangyue Pavilion with some talismans and unused elixirs.
He wants to refine the Golden Spirit Sword, but he still lacks four materials. Now it seems that he can only go to Shuangyue Pavilion to see if he can get it.
Or participate in a few more big trading days, and when Snow Mist Valley opens a year later, when there are more monks here, the chance of getting it together will be greater.
On the way to Shuangyue Pavilion from the lower city, Chu Ning saw many monks on the road and knew that today should be Shuangyue Pavilion’s big trading day.
When we arrived at Shuangyue Pavilion, the person guarding downstairs was still Bai Ruo.
The two of them were already very familiar with each other. Seeing Chu Ning coming, Bai Ruo immediately came up to greet him.
"Senior Chu, you are here. Senior has not been to the pavilion for a year."
Chun Ning nodded, glanced at him, and smiled:
< br>"I haven't seen you for a year, but Miss Bai Ruo has improved a lot in her cultivation. Congratulations on entering the middle stage of foundation building."
"Thank you, senior!" Bai Ruo smiled after hearing Chu Ning's words.
Looking at Chu Ning, I vaguely felt that Chu Ning's aura seemed to be a little stronger.
Based on her cultivation in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, it is naturally impossible to tell that Chu Ning has advanced to the middle stage of Golden Core.
He didn't dare to say more, and just said:
"Many other seniors have already come, and the small trade fair should start soon."
Chun Ning heard that he immediately stopped delaying, and quickly Walking towards the third floor step by step.
Entering the small hall for internal trading, there were already more than ten people sitting inside.
Besides Wu Lingwei, there are two acquaintances.
One is Chang Lingshan, whom Chu Ning is familiar with, and the other is a middle-aged monk named Han Shihong, whom he met at the trade fair after the opening of Snow Mist Valley nine years ago.
After Chu Ning came in, she cupped her hands towards Wu Lingwei, said hello, and then walked towards the two acquaintances.
At this moment, Wu Lingwei's eyes flashed with something strange, and she turned to smile and said:
"I asked why Fellow Daoist Chu hasn't come to my Shuangyue Pavilion for so long. It turns out that he is in seclusion for promotion."
When Wu Lingwei said this, Chang Lingshan and Han Shihong had also reached the middle stage of Chu Ning Golden Core cultivation, and they were also a little surprised.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Chu, for advancing to the middle stage of Golden Core."
Although the other monks did not know Chu Ning, they all congratulated him a few times when they heard this.
"Thank you all fellow Taoists." Chu Ning bowed his hands and bowed to everyone before sitting down next to Chang Lingshan.
Wu Lingwei organized the transaction at this moment. According to the usual practice, Shuangyue Pavilion took out a few treasures first, and then the monks traded on their own.
What makes Chu Ning a little regretful is that neither the items sold by Shuangyue Pavilion nor the items used by the monks for trading later did not have the materials Chu Ning wanted.
Chun Ning randomly selected a few good elixirs and materials and put them down for the monks to exchange.
I found Wu Lingwei.
As soon as Chu Ning stepped forward, Wu Lingwei immediately smiled and said:
“Fellow Daoist Chu, you have requested a lot of elixir materials in recent years, and the inventory in the pavilion has long been sold. It's empty.
There are one or two kinds in the past year, but I'm afraid they can't satisfy your quantity.
We still have to wait for the opening of Snow Mist Valley in a year. "
Chun Ning shook his head at this moment and said:
"Fellow Daoist Wu, I am not here to find the elixir, but to ask you if there are any kinds of refining medicine here. device material. "
Speaking, Chu Ning handed a jade slip towards Wu Lingwei.
The latter took it and took a look. After seeing the content recorded inside, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
“Jiuyi gold, Xingrui sand, black feather water, and marigold wood are not common materials. "
"I wonder if there are any of these types of sales in Shuangyue Pavilion? "
After Chu Ning asked, Wu Lingwei suddenly smiled and said:
"Fellow Daoist Chu really thinks highly of our Shuangyue Pavilion. There are not many kinds in the pavilion, but this Wuling Water, the pavilion There is another bottle in it.
The rest of the materials will disappoint fellow Taoist. ”
Although Chu Ning felt a little disappointed, when she heard about the Wu Ling water, she immediately said:
“Fellow Daoist Wu, I don’t know how this Wu Ling water is sold.”
Wu Lingwei heard this He smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist, just follow the previous practice and make more high-level talismans."
Chun Ning readily agreed. At this time, he thought of the materials for making the Ice Shadow Sword Talisman. Then he asked:
"By the way, I wonder if there is ice condensation jade and the tail feathers of the gold and silver bird in the pavilion?"
Hearing that Chu Ning added two more materials , Wu Lingwei couldn't help but glance at Chu Ning again, and then said:
"There is indeed ice condensation jade. This Icelandic Fairy City is backed by the Snow Peak Mountains. Although ice condensation jade is difficult to find, after all, there is still ice condensation jade. Some.
As for the tail feathers of the Golden Silver Bird, this monster is at the lowest level of the seventh level, or even above the eighth level, and its tail feathers are regarded as treasures
When Chu Ning heard that there were no gold and silver bird tail feathers, he said:
"Then please ask Fellow Daoist Wu to help Chu get some ice crystal jade."
Wu Lingwei confessed, and soon Bai Ruo brought a bottle of Wu Ling water and two large pieces of ice. Ningyu arrives.
There are also two elixirs that Chu Ning can use.
Chun Ning handed over the talisman he had prepared a long time ago, plus some unused elixirs to the other party.
Then he returned to his seat and sat down.
To refine the Golden Spirit Sword, four types of materials have been gathered at this moment.
The remaining three materials did not have any results, which naturally made Chu Ning unhappy.
Chang Lingshan asked Chu Ning with some curiosity at this moment:
“Fellow Daoist Chu, I think you just wanted to buy some materials from Shuangyue Pavilion.
< br>What, not together?”
"No!" Chu Ning shook his head, and then his heart moved.
Chang Lingshan has a lot of friends, so I might be able to ask him about it.
Thinking of this, Chu Ning immediately asked the other party for several materials.
"Jiuyi gold, Xingrui sand, marigold wood, gold and silver bird tail feathers."
Chang Lingshan had a strange look on his face when he heard the materials Chu Ning wanted. Then a message was sent to Chu Ning:
"Brother Chu, after this, we will discuss it in detail."
