Chapter 71 Hundred Jun, the heavy water spirit body is formed
Wei Zhong stepped on the spiritual energy and headed towards the middle of Luohe River. There were already many foundation-building monks walking together around him.
These are all comrades who came to seize the treasure. Some control magic weapons, others step on spiritual beasts, and some rely on superb escape skills like Wei Zhong.
The waves in the Luo River are already turbulent, with huge waves rising one after another, setting off one piece after another of spiritual creatures.
Wei Zhong was close to a wave and could already detect the surging spiritual energy waves in front of him.
Suddenly, he saw a flash of red light below, which was a rare spiritual object.
The monks rushed forward, but with a neigh, a bird passed between the monks, and then held the red light thing in its mouth.
Soon it circled upwards and returned to the hands of a yellow-robed Taoist priest with a stubble on his face.
“Haha, this thing is destined to be the Taoist me.”
“It’s Taoist Qingze!”
The monks present had already recognized this person, and they were wise enough not to compete with him, but rushed towards other spiritual lights.
Wei Zhong's face was also a bit solemn. The bird was so fast just now that Wei Zhong almost didn't have time to react. In terms of burst speed, this bird was even better than him.
Looking at the palm-sized gray-feathered bird falling into the hands of Taoist Qingze, he put down a string of red corals, which seemed to be some kind of second-order corals.
While Wei Zhong was looking at it, Taoist Qingze also noticed Wei Zhong and turned his head slightly.
Wei Zhong slightly handed over his hand and left elsewhere.
This second-order coral spiritual object is not Wei Zhong's target, so there is no need to conflict with it.
Furthermore, Wei Zhong heard that Taoist Qingze was very powerful and had kept a large number of spirit beasts in captivity, as well as some kind of second-level spirit insects. Even in the later stages of foundation building, facing this person would give him a headache.
‘I hope this person will not cause trouble for me. ’
Wei Zhong walked towards a water-blue aura and picked out a sparkling finger-sized stone from the wave.
It is said to be a stone, but in fact it is closer to the transparent colored glass in the previous life. It emits a crystal blue light under the moonlight, which is really beautiful.
This is the Bailing Water Stone that Wei Zhong needs.
‘I got one, but I still need more. ’
Due to personal differences, the number of spiritual objects required for the forging of spiritual bodies also varies. Wei Zhong doesn’t know how many he needs, but based on previous experience, a hundred are the starting point.
"Boom!"
Another huge wave rolled out a large group of spiritual objects. Wei Zhong stepped lightly and chased towards that direction. Just then, Wei Zhong took a glance and discovered it among them. There are several auras similar to the Bailing Water Stone.
"Mine."
"It's mine."
······
While walking, there were many monks who heard comments about a certain spiritual object. The sound of scrambling. Some people just have a slight quarrel, and then are attracted by the newly erupted spiritual things.
But someone encountered a certain rare treasure, and the quarrel got very angry, and they started fighting in this dangerous place.
"Brother Qingze, how about you give me this exquisite jade heart?"
"Oh, whoever snatches it belongs to him."
Wei Zhong looked and saw that it was a The monks at the later stage of foundation building had a fight with Taoist Qingze.
The two mana were entangled, and a jade-colored spiritual fruit was suspended in the air.
‘This object seems to be the main elixir for refining the realm-breaking elixir. The second-level realm-breaking elixir refined from it can help monks break through the bottleneck from the mid- to late-stage foundation building.
No wonder the two are fighting over it. ’
In the middle stage of foundation building, Taoist Qingze needs this substance to refine elixirs to break through the realm.
The other Taoist in the late stage of foundation building seems to be Zhu Shen, a second-level alchemist.
The reputation is not very good, it can be said to be far worse than Wei Zhong.
There are already unspoken rules here for others to entrust an alchemist to make pills. They either receive spiritual stone rewards or take a commission from the refined pills.
But Zhu Shen was different. Other monks who entrusted him with elixir refining would not only have to pay the elixir refining fee, but would also have their elixirs deducted from him.
Others couldn't do anything about it. The alchemy process was a private matter. Only the alchemist knew how many pills were made.
Whether you lie about the number of pills depends on the alchemist’s integrity. Zhu Shen is good at manipulating this matter.
Furthermore, this person has a small belly and often relies on his cultivation in the late stage of foundation building to defeat other second-level alchemists.
It can be said that he has a very bad reputation among the alchemists nearby.
Wei Zhong lives in seclusion and wears other vests when he goes out, so he has little interaction with this person.
Just as the two were about to start fighting over the spirit fruit, a wave came over.
Zhu Shen's expression changed, but Taoist Qingze was overjoyed, waving his sleeves turned into a black cloud.
If you look closely, you will see that what comes out of it are not black clouds, but countless small black insects.
Zhu Shen did not dare to be approached by these spirit insects, so he had to give up the spirit fruit and escape.
Taoist Qingze grabbed the spirit fruit into his hand, and the wave had already hit him.
When Wei Zhong saw it releasing a second-level spirit turtle, he resisted the approaching crisis and then fled far behind.
A burst of blue light appeared on the turtle's carapace, and was immediately submerged by the wave.
While the two were fighting, Wei Zhong had already taken more than a dozen Bailing Water Stones nearby, and then stepped on the violent spiritual energy and escaped upwards.
When the tide subsided, a turtle shell the size of a washbasin emerged from the water. It was Qingze's one.
This turtle was actually unscathed by this attack. It was indeed the roughest and thickest among the aquatic monsters.
Even though his aura was slightly sluggish and his size had shrunk a lot, Taoist Qingze flew to his side and put him away.
Another spiritual eruption occurred, and Wei Zhong hurriedly fled there.
There are many shining auras, and there are even third-level spiritual objects.
The enthusiasm of the monks was instantly ignited, and those with advanced skills headed straight for the third-level treasure.
Wei Zhong saw an unusual aura.
‘This, could it be Qianling Water Stone. ’
This object is also one of the spiritual objects needed by Wei Zhong, used to develop a heavy water spirit body of Qianjun level above Baijun.
In an instant, Wei Zhong used his Soaring Cloud Technique with all his strength, and a phantom passed over many monks. He grabbed the Qianling Water Stone in his hand and also put away an unknown third-level spiritual fruit next to it.
Such a rapid escape caused the companions' expressions to change, and they hurriedly distanced themselves from Wei Zhong.
With such terrifying speed, God knows whether Wei Zhong would secretly attack them amid the struggle for interests.
After seeing that the nearby third-level spiritual objects were already being competed for by others, and there was no second Thousand Spirits Water Stone among them, Wei Zhong set his target on the Bailing Water Stone again.
At this moment, a figure approached Wei Zhong and said, "Fellow Taoist, can you sell me the third-level spiritual fruit."
That person was none other than Zhu Shen. .
Wei Zhong frowned, cupped his hands and said, "This spiritual fruit is of great use to me, I'm sorry I can't give it to you."
Then it turned into a cloud of smoke and rushed towards another place nearby where spiritual beings spewed out.
Zhu Shen's expression changed slightly, and he followed Wei Zhong, fighting for various spiritual objects, and secretly used some small tricks to disrupt Wei Zhong's movement to obtain the Bailing Water Stone.
Wei Zhong stopped and glanced at Zhu Shen coldly, but the other party just pretended that nothing happened. When Wei Zhong looked at each other, he turned back and smiled in return.
‘It seems that this person is here to disgust me and attack me who is also a second-level alchemy master? ’
‘I hope you can learn something interesting, otherwise, hum. ’
Wei Zhong turned around and left the place, but he didn't expect the other party to stick to him again like a piece of brown sugar.
There was a roar, and another wave rolled up several spiritual objects, among which a third-level spiritual object appeared again.
Zhu Shen gave up on Wei Zhong instantly and headed towards the third-order spiritual object.
‘It’s a pity that there is no Qianling Water Stone. ’
Wei Zhong felt a little regretful and fled towards the spewing Bailing Water Stone.
Fortunately, this item had few uses, so few people competed with Wei Zhong. Relying on his advanced escape skills, Wei Zhong easily took it in his hand.
As for Zhu Shen, he got entangled with others because of a third-level spiritual object.
With a thought in Wei Zhong's heart, he hid behind a layer of huge waves and used all his strength to become invisible and breath-containing.
Condensing a ball of water in his hand, he took advantage of the wave to involve Zhu Shen and the two of them, and used the flying throwing technique to attack Zhu Shen through the water waves.
This wave was not considered ferocious. Zhu Shen originally planned to block it with a giant shield, and the late-stage foundation-building monks who were competing with him had the same idea.
But just when the huge wave hit, Zhu Shen's complexion changed drastically due to the incoming force, and he had to pour all his spiritual power into his body to resist the wave.
The competitor looked slightly surprised, so he took this opportunity to snatch the third-level spiritual object into his own hands.
Seeing that the spiritual object was taken away by others, Zhu Shen looked behind the huge waves angrily, but could not see a single figure.
‘Is it because I feel wrong? ’
With some suspicion, Zhu Shen began to fight for other spiritual objects.
But after several failed attempts, Zhu Shen was sure that someone was secretly targeting him.
‘Who, who is it? ’
Zhu Shen roared silently in his heart and turned to look at Wei Zhong. But seeing that Wei Zhong was very serious about collecting Bailing water stones, he immediately turned his attention to Taoist Qingze.
Waving his sleeves and robe, he headed towards Taoist Qingze.
"Zhu Shen, how dare you rob me?" Taoist Qingze roared, raised his hand and released a water snake monster as thick as an adult's waist...
Wei Zhong never expected that retaliation from this side would make Zhu Shen jump over the wall and go straight to trouble Qingze.
‘Are you looking down on yourself, thinking that I am only in the middle stage of foundation building and don’t have the ability to deal with him secretly? ’
After thinking about it, it became clear that Wei Zhong was famous for his alchemy, and other methods must be somewhat lacking in the eyes of others.
On the contrary, Taoist Qingze, who raises spiritual beasts and is good at fighting, is different. It is very possible to use some special monster to cause harm to it.
Fortunately, the two of them only had a brief confrontation, and then they both gave up. No one wants to miss such a great opportunity to obtain spiritual items.
Seeing that Zhu Shen did not come to trouble him again, Wei Zhong gave up the idea of targeting him and started looking for Bailing Shuishi wholeheartedly.
What Wei Zhong didn't know was that this time he gave up on secretly targeting Zhu Shen, and instead let him confirm that Qingze had secretly taken action just now.
This is how a black pot was placed on Taoist Qingze’s head.
The wave lasted for half an hour and finally dissipated. Wei Zhong collected more than 80 Bailing Water Stones during this period.
When everyone returned home with their loads, they bought more than twenty more from other monks, making a total of one hundred and eight.
‘I don’t know if the quantity is enough for me. '
Wei Zhong stepped back on Jiucai's back and was greeted by Ling Ziwei's admiration:
"Wei Dao's friendly and elegant body skills. He is elusive, even among the monks in the late stage of foundation building." It’s also a masterpiece.”
“Fairy Ling is in love.”
This tide watching is over, let’s leave now.
At this moment, Zhu Shen came up and said:
"Fellow Daoist Wei, that spiritual fruit just now?"
Wei Zhong brushed his hands: "I have something else to use. , I can’t give up my love.”
Immediately, he ordered Jiucai to fly into the sky, leaving only Zhu Shen staying in place with an ugly expression.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Wei doesn't seem to be getting along well with this person?" Ling Ziwei laughed.
"Hmph, this guy is a chicken. When he wanted to grab the treasure, he wanted to take the spirit fruit in my hand. After I refused, he held a grudge and influenced me to pick up the Bailing Water Stone many times. I would even give him a good look. "
"Exactly, Fellow Daoist Wei has the foundation-building style."
'In this wave, only five fingers of third-order spiritual objects were rolled up, and I got a third-order spiritual fruit. , Taoist Qingze also took one, and the others were obtained by various late-stage foundation-building monks.
Zhu Shengui is a second-level alchemy master in the late stage of foundation building. It is unfortunate that he did not obtain even a third-level spiritual object.
Of course this is due to his own influence, but it is also due to Zhu Shen's poor popularity. As long as he wants to get something good, his colleagues will surely compete with him. ’
“Fairy Ling, please keep it in mind, Fairy Ling, about the Bailing Shuishi Stone incident just mentioned. You will be rewarded for your poor conduct afterwards,” Wei Zhong said solemnly to Ling Ziwei.
Seeing Wei Zhong's serious look, Ling Ziwei also realized the importance of this moment to Wei Zhong:
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Wei, I will definitely start when I return to the family next time. Deal with this matter."
"In addition, if Fairy Ling has information about the Thousand Spirits Water Stone or even the Ten Thousand Water Spirit Stones, she can also bring it out, and she will definitely provide the resources that will satisfy the Ling family," Wei Zhong added.
Ling Ziwei can still decide on the Hundred Water Spirit Stone by herself, but if it involves the higher-level Thousand Spirit Water Stone or Ten Thousand Spirit Water Stone, then the entire Ling family may need to be alarmed.
Even though Ling Ziwei has the highest cultivation level in the family, she still needs the consent of the entire clan elders association.
"No problem, just why Taoist friends need such spiritual objects, can you tell me a little bit," Ling Ziwei paused for a moment, "Of course, if it involves Taoist friends' secrets, there is no need..." ···”
Wei Zhong lowered his head and pondered for a moment, but decided to inform Yu Ling Ziwei of the matter.
"Fairy Ling..., please fairy not to tell anyone else about this, even fellow Taoist Ling Hua."
"I understand. Fellow Taoist Wei is willing to tell me such secret things because I trust you and I know how powerful it is," Ling Ziwei was quite satisfied with Wei Zhong's frankness and assured her, patting her chest.
Wei Zhong understood that even though he escaped, he was still a child who didn't understand anything after practicing to the late stage of foundation building, so he could still keep secrets.
“But if Fellow Daoist Wei wants to go further in his cultivation, he still needs to consider the Qianjun or Wanjun heavy water spirit body. The effect of this Hundred Jun is really...”
“Alas,” Wei Zhong sighed, “Why don’t I understand the truth? It’s just that spiritual objects are rare and I have no choice but to do so.
If I can’t change my qualifications, I’m afraid I won’t even be able to break through to the late stage of foundation building. ”
·······
Jiucai's escape speed was extremely fast. While the two were talking, they had already returned to Yunxia Island, and Ling Ziwei left with Feijian.
After Wei Zhong gave Xie Linghua some instructions, he entered the cave.
The next step is to wait for news from Ling Ziwei and start the transformation of the heavy water spirit body.
While waiting, Wei Zhong still needs to complete the alchemy commission he accepted.
I don’t know how long this spiritual body transformation will last, and the time limit for these alchemy commissions is only one month.
Wei Zhong's reputation that he finally accumulated cannot be destroyed by this.
Ling Ziwei didn't let Wei Zhong wait for too long. In just three days, she turned around with about a hundred Bailing Water Stones, including three Thousand Spirits Water Stones.
"Fairy Ling, this?"
Ling Ziwei smiled proudly: "Hey, I got these from my brother. In addition, there are a few more in the clan's warehouse. I will look for opportunities in the future. Come with you ”
Wei Zhong never expected that the other party would actually reach this point, and bowed solemnly: "Thank you so much, fellow Taoist Ling."
Ling Ziwei's face turned red, and she waved her hands randomly, feeling a little at a loss:
"Fellow Daoist Wei, you don't have to be like this. These are all what Ziwei wants." He said it but felt a little inappropriate.
"In short, you don't have to be polite, Taoist Wei. Next, you can go into seclusion, and I'll do it again." After staying on the island for a few days and having a good time with Linghua, fellow Taoist Wei won't drive me away, right?"
Wei Zhong knew that he had some thoughts on protecting the law.
"Of course not!"
Wei Zhong handed over all the elixirs he had practiced in the past few days to Xie Linghua, and at the same time told him not to accept any more alchemy commissions until he was out of seclusion.
Then he greeted the two women and retreated into the cave.
Looking at Wei Zhong's leaving figure, Xie Linghua's face was a little worried.
Ling Ziwei beside him held his hand and comforted him in a low voice:
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Wei has always been on the safe side. He must be completely prepared for this matter."
The latter nodded.
In the cave, Wei Zhong spread all the Bailing Water Stones on the ground, and placed four Thousand Spirits Water Stones on one side of the table.
If the more than two hundred Bailing Water Stones are not enough later, I will use these Thousand Spirit Water Stones together. Although it is a bit wasteful, as long as I can exchange for the Heavy Water Spirit Body, everything will be worth it.
Wei Zhong took out another large cauldron. This cauldron was purchased from the Yunji Chamber of Commerce and was specially prepared for the transformation process of the heavy water spirit body.
The refining of this spirit body is to refine the essence of the Bailing Water Stone into the human body like refining weapons or elixirs to achieve the effect of changing the qualifications.
According to the records in the jade slips, this process will cause inhuman pain.
Those who practice this method need to adhere to the Taoist mind and persist in one breath until the entire process is completed. You must not stop midway, otherwise not only will all the spiritual objects be wasted, but the legal body will also be damaged.
Of course, the jade slips also introduced several elixirs to neutralize such pain, and Wei Zhong had already prepared them.
Flying into the cauldron, the surrounding Bailing water stones also flew up together with Wei Zhong...
"Fairy Ling, I wonder when Daoist Fellow Wei will be able to leave seclusion?"
Taoist Qingze asked Ling Ziwei helplessly.
Ling Ziwei answered across the clear water and green lotus formation:
"Fellow Daoist Wei is in seclusion, how do I know when he will come out of seclusion. Also, I am not familiar with you, don't call Fairy Ling at the same time. . ”
Qingze was a little helpless, thinking: You don’t know, but why should you treat me as an enemy and keep me out of the battle.
Ling Ziwei jumped away, but Xie Linghua's temper improved a lot:
"Senior Qingze, I don't know when to find the master, you might as well tell me first, and I will convey it to you when the master comes out of seclusion. . "
Seeing this, Qingze had no choice but to say truthfully: "I need to find fellow Taoist Wei to refine a complex elixir. I hope the fairy can give it a try after he comes out of seclusion. "
< br>Qingze seeks others and puts himself very low. Even Xie Linghua, a junior, calls him a fairy.
"Okay, when the master comes out of seclusion, I will convey it to my senior."
After receiving the reply, Qingze held his hand slightly and turned into a ray of green light and left Yunxia Island.
But Wei Zhong in the cave was completely unaware of everything and was wailing in pain in the cauldron.
All the Bailing Water Stones had turned into a pool of blue spiritual liquid at this moment, and Wei Zhong was immersing his entire body in it.
The rich spiritual liquid erodes Wei Zhong's body like acid. No wonder the jade slips record that the casting process was extremely painful.
Putting his head out, he swallowed a red elixir, and a warmth suddenly arose in his body, forming a confrontation with the spiritual liquid.
Only then did Wei Zhong have a chance to breathe.
‘It has only been three days now, and the change process has only been less than one-tenth. It seems that it will take at least a month, but unfortunately half of the prepared elixirs have been consumed.
The next step is to endure the pain, and save the elixir for use at the most important moment. ’
With peace of mind and mind, Wei Zhong let go of his mind and unknowingly began to operate the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Technique".
The blue spiritual liquid was suddenly sucked into Wei Zhong's body like ordinary spiritual energy.
Wei Zhong reacted and looked at his hands and body in surprise.
“This, does the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Technique" also have the effect of absorbing spiritual fluid and changing the spiritual body?"
Wei Zhong ran the technique again, and sure enough he found that as the technique continued, The spiritual fluid is being absorbed into his body, and continues to accumulate into the progress of spiritual body training.
Wei Zhong was overjoyed and immediately began to run the technique at full speed. The body is like a sponge constantly absorbing spiritual fluid.
“It’s faster and less painful.”
Wei Zhong simply jumped out of the cauldron, just stuffed his hands into the spiritual fluid, then closed his eyes and began to concentrate on running the technique.
Half a month has passed, and only a thin layer of spiritual liquid remains in the cauldron.
Wei Zhong sat cross-legged beside the tripod with his eyes closed, savoring the changes in his body.
“The speed of absorbing spiritual energy has become faster, about 30% faster. It’s not much, but the absorption efficiency of spiritual objects is far more than that.
This means , you will make more progress using the same resources now than before.”
"My affinity for spiritual energy has also increased, especially water spiritual energy."
Wei Zhong thought in his mind, and a black water coat suddenly appeared on Wei Zhong's body.
"The casting speed of [Black Water Spirit Clothes] is faster, and its power has also been slightly improved. The changes this heavy water spirit has brought to me are really great.
Not only It speeds up the practice, and it also improves the level of combat power, which means that you will have a stronger self-protection ability than before. "
In the journey of practice, safety is the first priority. Wei Zhong has practiced to this point and always puts safety first.
"Now that the spirit body is complete, I still need to leave the seclusion and thank Ling Ziwei." Looking at the little spiritual fluid left in the cauldron, "If it weren't for his help this time, the few Bailing Water Stones I collected would not be enough."
