Chapter 257: Refining the Foundation-Building Pill
After that, every morning in front of Li Qing’s courtyard, there was a seven or eight-year-old child kneeling in front of the door, with tears in his eyes, looking really pitiful.
This kind of life lasted for more than two months, and the child still persisted, presumably because he was forced by his mother.
One night, Li Qing looked at the layer of frost forming outside the window and couldn't help but sigh.
It has been almost a year since I came to Qinghuatan, and another cold winter is coming.
Li Qing took out the soul-nurturing bell, used his spiritual power to refine it once as usual, and then wore it properly on his body. For the next whole day, the bell would continue to nourish his consciousness and strengthen his soul. .
After repeating this process, he had been doing this for four years without realizing it.
And this soul that has been warmed for four years, coupled with the fact that he had taken a lot of Star Grass in the secret realm, the strength of his soul is now comparable to that of a monk in the foundation building stage.
“When the soul becomes stronger in the future, maybe we can find a monk in the foundation-building stage to seize the body, and then we can save the foundation-building pills.”
Li Qing laughed at himself He smiled, then shook his head, and took out a copy of "Weapon Refining Fragments" and a pen from the storage bag.
This incomplete weapon refining inheritance was bought by him in Tianhefang City a few years ago. At that time, the stall owner surnamed Meng gave him a copy of the "Wood Sealing Method" and only asked him to help repair the best magic weapon in the future. commitment.
Later Tianhefang City was destroyed, and Li Qing didn’t know what happened to the down-and-out monk surnamed Meng.
“Now that the Historian family has been destroyed, only some remnants are left wandering outside.”
“If I have the ability to repair the best magic weapons in the future, and I can meet him again, it will be Help him repair it, and he no longer has to worry about the historian's revenge."
As he spoke, Li Qing took up his pen and wrote some of his own annotations in the "Explanation of Refined Weapon Remnants" and also added. He mentioned some of his own experience in blacksmithing. Finally, he thought about it and added two pages of basic five-element spiritual patterns that he was familiar with.
At this point, this incomplete weapon refining inheritance has been almost supplemented. If everyone learns them all, refining a low-grade magical weapon in the future will not be a problem, and it can also be regarded as a help on the path of cultivation.
And if he cannot even master these simple and easy-to-understand inheritance, and has such poor qualifications and understanding, even if Li Qing accepts him as a disciple and teaches him personally, he will not be able to achieve much in the art of weapon refining in the future. .
"Just think of it as planting good causes and reaping good results."
After saying this, Li Qing took advantage of the night to place this completed weapon refining inheritance at the door of his courtyard. Then he closed the courtyard door tightly.
It is night, a snowflake from this winter has fallen, and the weather has become much colder.
A child in simple clothes walked toward the gate of the courtyard where he had knelt for more than two months, his body trembling.
In his young mind, the courtyard door that had always been closed was much colder than the winter climate.
But there was no other way. His parents' orders could not be violated. When he thought of his mother's persecution, he had to continue to walk out on this cold winter night and continue to kneel down to seek advice.
When he thought of this, the boy couldn't help but clenched his already red little hands, and tears welled up in his eyes.
He was holding a bag of spiritual rice in his hand. This was something he rarely ate once in daily life. Now, in order to learn from his teacher, he would not even give it away to others.
At such a young age, he has now truly realized the difficulties of being a casual cultivator at the bottom of the world of immortality.
When he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, the little boy felt a little numb in his heart and was ready to kneel down until dawn as usual.
But just when he lowered his head, there was a book placed in front of the courtyard!
The cold wind of the winter night blew through the book, turning the pages, and vaguely revealed a few pages with brand new ink.
Immediately, the boy knelt down and kowtowed several times, shouting with tears of gratitude: "Thank you, Master Li! Thank you, Master Li!"
After saying that, he left a bag of spiritual rice in front of the courtyard gate, and then ran back quickly holding the weapon refining inheritance.
In the courtyard, Li Qing's consciousness had already absorbed everything that had just happened in his mind.
"After all, he is not hard-hearted enough." Li Qing laughed at himself, then shook his head and motioned to Fan Tong to take back the bag of spiritual rice from the entrance of the courtyard.
The next morning, Li Qing was cooking Guoling rice while admiring the snowy scenery outside the courtyard.
The Qinghua Lake in winter is even more beautiful. The green hills are stained with white hair, and the calm Qinghua Lake is covered with a thin layer of ice, making it look more like a smooth mirror.
After the sweet and delicious spiritual rice was cooked, Li Qing was about to start cooking, but he thought that a spiritual bird slowly flew over, placed a letter in front of his courtyard, and then quickly flew away.
Li Qing was startled, then took the letter in front of the courtyard into his hand.
Only two simple words were written above, but it caused Li Qing's calm state of mind to ripple again.
"Come quickly!"
Signed as Taoist Qingyang, Li Qing took a deep breath, and then a blazing flame came out of his hand, burning the letter to ashes.
After a whole year of business, the foundation-building pill he wanted finally showed signs of success!
“Let’s go!”
Stepping on the Peerless Hammer, Li Qingyu flew into the air and rushed towards Taoist Qingyang’s cave at extremely fast speed.
As if to welcome Li Qing, the restrictions in front of the cave were wide open at this time, without any obstruction.
Seeing this, Li Qing was not polite and walked directly in. At the same time, he clasped his fists and said: "Senior Qingyang, junior Li Qing is here to visit!"
When I walked into the cave, the first person I saw was not Taoist Qingyang, but a slender woman!
The moment he saw this woman, Li Qing couldn't help but froze for a while, very surprised.
This woman is none other than Liu Hanyue!
She was wearing a light blue fur coat, with a piece of snow-white mink fur exposed at the collar, which added a touch of luxury to her cold temperament.
Liu Hanyue, who noticed the movement, turned around. When she saw Li Qing, she couldn't help but be stunned, not hiding the surprise in her eyes.
Although they had only met a few times, Liu Hanyue had a certain impression of Li Qing.
What she didn’t expect was that the casual cultivator who worked as a helper in her family had now become a cultivator in the late stage of Qi refining.
Li Qing reacted quickly. He suppressed the surprise in his heart, then clasped his fists and said, "I've seen Fairy Hanyue!" Liu Hanyue tapped her forehead and responded with her cold voice: "Yes."< br>
In the cave, Taoist Qingyang, who was sitting cross-legged, laughed loudly and said: "Haha, Miss Liu, this is the person I want to introduce to you who can refine the Foundation Building Pill. It seems that there is no need for me to introduce you, as long as we know each other.”
At this time, Li Qing looked at Liu Hanyue openly. There was obvious fatigue in this woman's eyebrows. It was expected that she had been disturbed by the trivial matters of the family in recent years.
As for her cultivation, she is now a monk at the tenth level of the Qi Refining Stage. At this stage, she has reached the Great Perfection.
But for her, this level is a bit low.
When I first met Liu Hanyue, she was already at the ninth level of Qi Refining. I didn’t expect that after so many years, she had not yet established the foundation.
Liu Hanyue looked at Li Qing and nodded, and then said bluntly: "I'm going to say something ugly first. The elixir I brought this time is complete, only three auxiliary medicines are missing."< br>
"If there are only two pills in this furnace, I will take them all away. I will supply you with the three auxiliary medicines you provided at the market price."
"If there are three pills in one furnace, , you can take one, but you have to give me some spiritual stones as compensation."
"You can think about it. If you don't agree, I will collect the remaining three auxiliary medicines myself." br>
The logic of what he said was very clear. Li Qing only thought about it for a moment before agreeing to the other party's proposal.
The most precious thing about the Foundation Establishment Pill is the main medicine, and the remaining auxiliary medicines can be collected with just a little time.
If Li Qing refuses, I believe that with Liu Hanyue's ability, it won't take long to collect the remaining three auxiliary medicines.
“Okay, I agree!” Li Qing nodded.
Seeing that Li Qing agreed, Liu Hanyue didn't say much and took out all the elixirs in the storage bag. There were more than a dozen types.
They are all elixirs for refining the Foundation Building Pill, especially the white fruit among them is the most eye-catching!
This is the Fusion Fruit! The main medicine of the Foundation Establishment Pill is now a rare elixir found in the world of immortality. Even if its value does not need to be described in detail, you can know how precious this Yuan Yuan Fruit is.
"Haha, little friend, just take out the Xuan Bing Ye, Star Anise Grass and Magic Heart Fruit." Taoist Qingyang said with a kind smile.
Hearing this, Li Qing took out the three elixirs in his storage bag without saying anything.
With the number of nearly twenty kinds of elixirs coming out, the number of elixirs for refining a furnace of foundation-building pills was finally gathered.
Seeing this scene, Li Qing's mood couldn't help but fluctuate. Even Liu Hanyue, who had always been cold and aloof, couldn't help but soften a lot.
"Senior Lao Qingyang will be next!" Liu Hanyue said softly.
"I will do my best, please rest assured, my two little friends." Taoist Qingyang said with a smile.
"Okay, I will start refining the elixir next. You two can watch from the sidelines and protect me for once. Remember not to disturb me."
Hearing Qingyang Taoist's words After being told, Li Qing and Liu Hanyue both nodded in response and said in unison: "It should be so."
After saying that, the two of them stepped back at the same time and quietly watched Taoist Qingyang take out his statue. Brass tripod.
Boom!
Taoist Qingyang tapped the alchemy cauldron with one hand, and saw the spiritual patterns inside the cauldron's wall shining, the fire attribute spiritual patterns glowing, and soon a blazing flame suddenly burned in the cauldron.
This flame is just ordinary fire, so naturally it cannot be used to refine the Foundation Building Pill.
However, although Li Qing is a weapon refiner, he also knows that this step should be Wen Ding, one of the most basic steps in refining medicine.
It can be understood as heating the pot before cooking. Of course, the principle is definitely more complicated.
Although refining medicine is not as time-consuming as refining weapons, which takes ten days and a half, refining a furnace of foundation-building pills will definitely not take less time.
Li Qing said nothing and glanced at Liu Hanyue's beautiful face with his peripheral vision, but he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
After all, the Liu family is a large clan of immortal cultivators attached to the Tianhe Sect. They lost a Yuan Yuan Fruit a few years ago, but unexpectedly found another one.
He guessed that this Fusion Fruit should have been exchanged by Liu Hanyue from the Tianhe Sect with the sect's contribution. Otherwise, with the woman's accumulation in the sect, she could have exchanged it for one long ago. Foundation building pill.
As for why he spent more contribution points to exchange for the Fusion Fruit instead of directly exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill, Li Qing believed that this should be considered for the sake of the family.
Looking at Liu Hanyue's current temperament, there is a hint of tiredness in her brows, presumably because she has started to deal with trivial matters in the family.
The only thing that puzzled Li Qing was why she didn't go to the alchemist of Tianhe Sect to refine it, but instead found an alchemist outside to refine it?
It is impossible for such a large Tianhe Sect to not even have an alchemy elder, right?
However, due to this confusion, Li Qing just muttered in his heart and did not ask out loud.
After all, the Tianhe Sect is so big, with so many factions, and its power must be quite complicated. It is not surprising that there are some reasons for this.
Liu Hanyue seemed to be aware of Li Qing's gaze. She frowned slightly and turned her pretty face away slightly.
When Li Qing saw this, he was slightly shocked. He didn't expect that this woman's spiritual sense was so sharp. He could sense her even with his peripheral vision.
Soon, Li Qing looked straight ahead, staring at the steps of Taoist Qingyang's alchemy in front of him, and carefully observed them.
He was analyzing how this alchemy was different from his usual weapon refining.
I saw Taoist Qingyang at this time, making a seal with both hands, and a green flame that was different from ordinary fire rose from the bottom of the medicine refining cauldron.
It’s so hot!
A kind of flame that can only be activated in the foundation building stage. This fire is most suitable for refining elixirs and refining weapons.
Li Qing had a little envy in his eyes. It would be great if he could have such a flame. It would also save a lot of effort in refining weapons in the future, and many spiritual materials can be easily smelted.
Next, Taoist Qingyang casually fetched the elixir.
The refining of the Foundation Establishment Pill has begun!
