Chapter 140 Status

After helping Xie Linghua improve her spiritual root qualifications, Wei Zhong told her to continue practicing and not to neglect the cultivation of natal cloud energy.

After a spiritual cultivation, the opponent's natal cloud energy will also be reduced to the first-level low-grade and can no longer be used against the enemy. It takes a long time to cultivate to restore the power.

After that, Wei Zhong went into seclusion for a long time. At this moment, he still had two inheritances that he needed to get familiar with, one elixir and one weapon.

Wei Zhong guessed that after thoroughly understanding the entire alchemy inheritance, his level of alchemy would probably return to the master level.

Similarly, the inheritance of weapon refining cannot be ignored. If he can advance to the fourth level with this, Wei Zhong will have another level 4 weapon refining skill.

Whether you are refining magic weapons for yourself to improve your strength, or making magic weapons for sale and exchange, there are many benefits.

In addition, Wei Zhong has not forgotten the colorful golden bamboo umbrella, which was prepared by Wei Zhong for the future Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation.

Although there are currently insufficient spiritual materials in hand, especially the Golden Thunder Bamboo, which is only about 9,000 years old, there is still a long way to go before it can be fully formed in 10,000 years.

But this does not prevent Wei Zhong from mastering the art of weapon refining. Maybe after becoming a fourth-level weapon refiner, he can find a way to replace the Ten Thousand Years Golden Thunder Bamboo and refine this fourth-level treasured umbrella with the assistance of other spiritual materials.

While he was familiar with the way of alchemy, Wei Zhong did not neglect his daily practice.

"Spring and Autumn Water Refining Technique" and "Forging Gang Method".

The spiritual and physical cultivation methods were refined at the same time, and Wei Zhong rapidly improved his cultivation with the blessing of high-grade spiritual roots.

Only four years have passed, and the panel in front of Wei Zhong has changed.

[Name: Wei Zhong]

[Cultivation: Early stage of pill formation (three levels·1%)]

【Shouyuan: 381/540】

The cultivation base has advanced to the third level of the early stage of pill formation, and the next step is the middle stage of pill formation. By then, Wei Zhong's strength will be greatly increased, and the upper limit of his lifespan will also be raised.

In addition, the number of Gang Qi produced by practicing the "Forging Gang Method" is three thousand. According to the description of the method, four thousand Gang Qi can be compared with the spiritual cultivation in the middle stage of pill formation.

Wei Zhong has been cultivating for these years, and he is on the verge of breakthrough in both spiritual and physical realms. It only takes a few more decades for both of them to reach the mid-level level.

While practicing, Wei Zhong did not neglect to investigate news from the outside world.

Seven or eight years have passed since the incident in the secret realm. Although most of the monks who were watching the excitement have left, there is still a possible change in Luohe Mansion.

That is Zhigang Palace.

What makes Wei Zhong feel strange is that Zhigang Palace has not changed much since the last incident. On the contrary, it has developed quite smoothly.

‘Song Linfang tricked the Wang family, but as a Nascent Soul force, could the other party let her go just like that? If this is the case, this Yuanying family is too grand. ’

Just when Wei Zhong had this idea, news came that Peng Susu, a disciple of the Zhigang Palace, was accepted as a disciple by Wang Lihua of the Wang family and married Wang Bofeng, a rookie of the Wang family.

"The Zhigang Palace was not pushed into the water by the Wang family, but instead boarded this big ship?"

Wei Zhong looked at the news brought by Ling Ziwei and said a little strangely.

"Husband, are you doubtful about the Wang family's performance?"

Wei Zhong shook his head:

"Exactly, the Wang family's behavior is a bit too gentle.

Even if the Zhigang Palace wants to resolve conflicts through gifting disciples and marriage, how can Peng Susu's small foundation building affect the overall situation of the Wang family? "

To the Nascent Soul forces, foundation building is like ants in the palm of your hand. You can easily grab a handful of them, and you won't feel bad even if there are a lot of casualties.

As long as a few decades pass, a new seedling will still grow in the family.

This is the normal state of the Yuanying family that has lasted for thousands of years.

Therefore, Wei Zhongcai believed that it was unreasonable to resolve conflicts by building foundations under the sect.

Wei Zhong looked thoughtful and gradually thought of a possibility.

‘If foundation building is not possible, is the amount of pill formation enough? If that's not enough, what about a Dan-forming major cultivator who is expected to condense the baby? ’

Wei Zhong put down the jade slip in his hand and told Ling Ziwei:

"Pay close attention to the news in Zhigang Palace, and notify me immediately if something big happens."

Ling Ziwei nodded:

"What is your husband's attitude towards the banquet invitation from Zhigang Palace?"

Wei Zhong wanted to refuse and ask Ling Ziwei to attend the banquet on his behalf, but after thinking about it, he still replied:

"Go and have a look. You and Linghua can go together if you are interested."

The banquet was scheduled for half a month later. On that day, Wei Zhong and his two daughters rode a big bird transformed into nine colors to Gang Palace.

After being fed a large amount of demon pills, Jiucai now has the cultivation level of the late second level, and it will take another few decades to reach the third level.

Generally, monsters have a longer lifespan than human monks, but their cultivation speed is far slower. Only by passing time can they advance.

Jiucai's cultivation speed can be said to be unique among monsters.

Qingbo Island where Wei Zhong is located is hundreds of thousands of miles away from Gang Palace, so it won't take much time to use Jiucai's Wind and Thunder Escape Technique.

When Wei Zhong and others arrived at Zhigang Palace, many monks had already arrived.

A monster mount carrying the power of wind and thunder came to Zhigang Palace, which naturally attracted the attention of many monks.

Seeing the big bird transformed into nine colors, all the monks present thought of Master Wei Zhongwei.

Two people in the field looked up to the sky, and one of them was a little curious when he saw the power of thunder and lightning around Jiucai.

It was Yi Liu who was traveling outside the Qingmu Sect. He practiced thunder-based physical skills, so it was natural for him to be interested in monsters belonging to the thunder and lightning category.

Next to Yi Liu was Yao Zhengsheng, the leader of the Qingmu Sect, who was asking the person next to him:

"Is this the famous Wei Alchemy Master in this mansion?"

The people around him nodded:

"Tao has a friendly eye. This fellow Taoist is none other than Master Wei."

Then he pointed at the other two women above Asuka and continued to introduce:

"As for the female alchemy cultivator next to her, she is Fairy Ling Ziwei from the Ling family of Danjie. She is a third-level formation mage and became a Taoist companion with Master Wei many years ago.

Another female foundation-building cultivator is Master Wei’s concubine. She is very popular and is in charge of the resources of an entire third-level spiritual island..."

Listening to the introductions from the people around them, Yao Zhengsheng and Yi Liu both showed envy in their eyes.

Although the Qingmu Sect is stationed on the third-level spiritual land, it is not the private land of the two of them, but needs to be shared with the entire sect.

Moreover, the Wei Zhong in front of them also possesses third-level skills and is rich, which is beyond the imagination of both Yao Zhengsheng and Yao Zhengsheng.

‘Sure enough, this trip is right. In the small place of Mangyuan Mansion, how can we meet so many influential people? ’

With this thought in his mind, he looked at the person sitting in the main seat at the banquet.

‘The opponent’s aura is deep and similar to that of the supreme leader within the sect. He must be at the peak of the Dan Formation, only one step away from the Nascent Soul realm. ’

Yao Zhengsheng saw the other party let out a hearty laugh:

"It can be said that Fellow Daoist Wei is here!"

After saying this, he flew into the air and faced Wei Zhong.

The other party was so enthusiastic, Yao Zhengsheng and Yi Liu couldn't help but sigh in their hearts:

"This alchemist's reputation is still good!"

Wei Zhong passed through the formation and noticed two familiar auras below.

‘Two people from the Qingmu Sect? ’

Wei Zhong did not hide his identity during this trip, but sent a message to the two girls not to reveal that he moved here from Mangyuan Mansion.

Ling Ziwei had some doubts:

‘Husband, are you meeting an acquaintance? ’

It had been a hundred years since Wei Zhong left Mangyuan Mansion, but now that he has entered Jiedan, his appearance and aura have changed greatly, from a middle-aged man in his thirties to a young man in his twenties.

Moreover, he had not met Yao Zhengsheng and Yi Liu directly before, but they had only appeared in each other's elixir formation ceremony. The other party probably didn't care about such a small character as "Chu Zhong" at that time.

During his trip to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains more than ten years ago, Wei Zhong also concealed his identity, so there was no danger of being exposed.

The two girls beside him, Ling Ziwei, are native monks from Luohe Prefecture. Xie Linghua lives on Spirit Island all year round and has no contact with forces such as the Qingmu Sect.

As long as the news of Wei Zhong's original move from Mangyuan Mansion is kept, there will never be a chance of his identity being exposed.

This is indeed the case. As masters of alchemy formation in Qingmu Sect, how could Yao Zhengsheng and Yi Liu miss the former casual cultivator named "Chu Zhong"?

Even the original "Tie Zhen" was backed by Nascent Soul cultivators, and must have been a big shot from Yunzhou City.

Wei Zhong was thinking in his heart, and faced Song Linfang with a smile on his face. He felt the other party's increasingly astonishing aura, and his heart suddenly became awe-inspiring.

‘Sure enough, as I thought before, this person is going to be a baby. ’

With their expressions unchanged, Wei Zhong and Song Linfang greeted each other warmly.

"I haven't seen you Taoist friend Song for more than ten years. You have changed a lot. I'm afraid that next time we meet, I will have to call you senior."

"Fellow Daoist Wei is serious. Why should the relationship between you and me be bound by the title of cultivation?" Then he looked at the two women behind Wei Zhong.

"Fairy Ling is still as graceful and enviable as ever. And this must be Sister Xie Linghua Xie who has been with Daoist Wei for hundreds of years..."

"With such wives and concubines in Daoyou Wei's family, it's no wonder that he is not interested in my junior sister's advances," Song Linfang said.

This made the two girls look at Wei Zhong with a somewhat strange look in their eyes, but they didn't know that Wei Zhong was having such a romantic affair outside.

Seeing this, Wei Zhong quickly brought the topic back to business.

Since it was a banquet for his disciples to become disciples, he had to give good gifts.

He randomly selected a few third-level elixirs as a gift, which caused quite a stir at the banquet.

Ji Zhu's banquet was not so honorable.

But when everyone looked at Song Linfang, who had a deep breath, they suddenly understood.

‘This Fellow Daoist Wei wants to take this opportunity to take care of the relationship between himself and Song Linfang. ’

Wei Zhong didn't have so many ideas. The gift of the elixir was just because he didn't have any good things in his hands. Only the elixir could be produced continuously.

Yao Zhengsheng and Yi Liu were envious when they saw Wei Zhong's generous spending.

The third-level elixir is not enough for both of them in practice, so how can it be given as a gift to others.

Song Linfang took Wei Zhong and the other two people to sit down, and then introduced the nearby Danjie comrades.

Wei Zhong greeted them one by one, and the two from the Qingmu Sect were no exception.

Sure enough, Yao Zhengsheng and Yi Liu were not aware of Dao Wei Zhong's identity, and maintained their due enthusiasm for a third-level alchemy master and the alienation they should have between a strange monk.

Wei Zhong looked at Song Linfang, who was in charge. Next to him were several other elders from Zhigang Palace, including Xu Xianliang. With the help of Wei Zhong's elixir, the opponent's arm has been reattached and his injuries have completely recovered.

Seeing Wei Zhong take his seat, he quickly stepped forward and toasted enthusiastically.

After Wei Zhong retorted, he looked at the monks around him. They were all elixir-forming. Except for the two from the Qingmu Sect, they were all local monks from Luohe Mansion.

While looking around, there was a shout of approval coming from outside the hall. The protagonist of the banquet finally appeared.

Four people appeared from the entrance of the palace. The leader was Song Linfang, the elder of Zhigang Palace, followed by a couple of newlyweds, and at the end was an old man with a white beard.

‘This must be the third-level formation master from the Wang family who accepted Peng Susu as a disciple! The Wang family really gave Song Linfang enough face. This person actually attended this kind of banquet. ’

Most of the visitors reacted the same way as Wei Zhong, focusing their attention on the last old man, and never paid attention to the two foundation-building protagonists.

This old man represented the Wang family, and the monks present had to pay attention to him.

The banquet between monks did not have the same rules as in the mortal world. After meeting the elders of both parties, the two newcomers greeted the Jindan monks present one by one.

As elders, most visitors would take out some small things to show their blessings.

When the two came to Wei Zhong, Wei Zhong took out a jade hairpin, and the two women behind him took out a pair of bracelets.

Such behavior instantly attracted everyone's attention, because these three objects suddenly appeared with spiritual light and were of extraordinary grade.

"This fellow Daoist Wei Zhong is really wealthy!"

The cultivators present seemed to have just remembered that Wei Zhong was not only a third-level alchemist, but also a third-level weapon refiner.

Wei Zhong handed the three items to the two and said:

"These three magic tools are my game creations. Although they are all second-level, if they are used in combination, they are third-level treasures.

It is my blessing to the two of you!"

"Thank you, senior!"

The two saluted solemnly.

Third-level magic tools are also precious to the two, even to Wang Bofeng who was born in the Wang family.

After all, although the Wang family is a Yuanying force, it also has many disciples. Among them, the foundation-building cultivators are richer than casual cultivators, but their wealth is also very limited.

Wang Bofeng has not reached the point where he can casually take out the Jindan treasure.

Seeing Wei Zhong's gift, the white-bearded old man also came over, greeted Wei Zhong, and thanked him solemnly.

Wang Lihua had also heard of the influential figures in Luohe Prefecture, and Wei Zhong in front of him was the most prominent one among them.

Wang Lihua was very willing to make friends with Wei Zhong, a casual cultivator without any background. If he could win him over to the Wang family, it would be a great achievement.

The two of them were very enthusiastic when they talked.

On the contrary, Wang Lihua was a little indifferent to other fellow Jindan cultivators.

The cruelty of the cultivation world was presented in a different way at this moment.

Wei Zhong secretly sighed in his heart:

'This is the change brought about by status and position.

If I didn't have the status of a third-level alchemist and a third-level weapon refiner, I would be like other cultivators, and I could only stick to their cold butts with my warm face, and even saying a few words would be a luxury.

Although they are all figures who can establish a sect, there are also differences between Jindan and Jindan. '
