Chapter 155 Silver Sky

Wei Zhong stepped into the cave and sat cross-legged on the cushion in the training room. He used his consciousness to wrap the jade liquid of the soul, and the comfort that went straight to the soul came from his mind.

Looking with his eyes, the jade liquid wrapped by the consciousness disappeared instantly.

After looking inward at the sea of ​​consciousness, Wei Zhong found that there was a group of light silver water drops suspended in it, which emitted a silver light like moonlight. It was the jade liquid of the soul that escaped into the sea of ​​consciousness along Wei Zhong's consciousness.

It was not quickly absorbed and consumed by Wei Zhong, but slowly emitted its power in the sea of ​​consciousness.

‘It seems that this jade liquid of the soul is not an ordinary fourth-level spiritual object! ’

Wei Zhong estimated the speed of its consumption. It would probably stay in his sea of ​​consciousness for a month, and then it would completely disappear because of the exhaustion of power.

‘Take back the soul and give it a try! ’

Wei Zhong went out to collect the soul of the five-color puppet, and then took back the soul of the silver Xuan. In an instant, the soul merged into the body.

The speed at which the Spirit-Clearing Jade Liquid emitted silver moonlight began to accelerate, penetrating into Wei Zhong's consciousness to fill the gaps.

After absorbing all the split souls, Wei Zhong immediately noticed the difference.

Compared with the last split soul, the total amount of consciousness this time did not increase, but decreased.

However, the quality has changed, as if the Spirit-Clearing Jade Liquid removed the impurities in it, causing the consciousness to shrink.

'Cleanse the consciousness and enhance the quality. '

Wei Zhong carefully felt the consciousness after the transformation.

'With this quality, I can at least split twelve split souls. The reduction in the total amount did not lead to a decrease in the number of split souls, but an increase.

I wonder how my current consciousness strength compares to the late stage of Jindan? '

Wei Zhong touched his chin, thought for a moment, and put his attention back to the sea of ​​consciousness.

After this fusion of consciousness, the Spirit-Clearing Jade Liquid shrunk greatly, and about half of it was lost.

'It is indeed a rare thing, but it is a pity that there is only one drop. ’

Since the "Splitting God Method" has such a drawback, spiritual objects such as the Spirit Clearing Jade Liquid are indispensable to Wei Zhong.

Wei Zhong does not want to wait until the peak of the Jindan stage and fail to condense the infant due to the problem of spiritual consciousness.

After taking out the token, Wei Zhong asked Miaoli Shan and learned that there were not many such spiritual objects in the Yunji Chamber of Commerce. On the contrary, there were a ridiculous number of cultivators who needed such spiritual objects.

Yuanying cultivators, including Jindan cultivators with a lot of money, are queuing up to exchange for such spiritual objects.

Even if Wei Zhong can take out enough spiritual objects of equivalent value now, he will have to wait for at least thirty years.

Therefore, Wei Zhong had to make a reservation with the fourth-level spiritual pill first. The price was not expensive, only seven infant cultivation pills.

With Wei Zhong's alchemy skills, only one ten-thousand-year spiritual medicine was enough to refine it.

After separating six spirits and incorporating them into the puppet, Wei Zhong waited for only one month before Miaoli Shan came to Qingbo Island to take the spiritual pill.

By the way, if Wei Zhong doesn't have time to wait, he can also use fourth-level and above items to exchange from other cultivators.

Although the stock in the Chamber of Commerce is not much, there may be some cultivators in the whole Yunzhou City who have surplus.

Wei Zhong's consciousness probed into the white jade token and saw his identity label.

"Fourth-level alchemist."

Looking at other people who can log in to this trading system, there are also labels such as "Fourth-level refiner" or "Nascent Soul cultivator".

And under the label, it is mentioned what items you need and the spiritual objects you can pay.

Wei Zhong then learned to write below the label:

"Looking for Qingshen Jade Liquid, Ten Thousand Years Spiritual Medicine, and related means of promoting spiritual plants..."

He wrote about five or six items, and then marked below:

"You can use fourth-level spiritual pills, such as Blood Ginseng Pill, Earth Mysterious Pill, or Peiying Pill in exchange, and also accept spiritual pill refining commissions."

"The identity of a fourth-level alchemist is probably enough," Wei Zhong thought for a moment but still did not add the label of a fourth-level refiner.

'After all, my own refining skills are not good, and I have not reached the level of being able to customize fourth-level magic tools for others. '

After finishing this matter, Wei Zhong put down the token and came to a corner of the cave.

This place is full of light green spiritual bamboos. Wei Zhong walked into the bamboo forest and saw the nearly nine thousand year old golden thunder bamboo in the deepest part.

This thing was a gift from the Ling family, and it was originally more than eight thousand years old. After being transplanted to the cave by Wei Zhong, the peak third-level spiritual land made the spiritual bamboo grow rapidly.

Now the green color on the bamboo pole has faded, and the golden color fills it.

From time to time, golden lightning wanders on the surface of the spiritual bamboo.

The spiritual energy here is abundant, and the growth rate of the golden thunder bamboo has increased, but it is still very limited.

According to Wei Zhong's estimate, it will take at least six hundred years to reach the remaining one thousand years.

"It takes too long, I can't wait!"

If there is no colorful golden bamboo umbrella made from this thing, Wei Zhong has no confidence to survive the abnormal thunder tribulation.

And six hundred years is too long. With Wei Zhong's cultivation, it is impossible to live that long. By then, he must change his identity.

There must be all kinds of troubles.

Wei Zhong's current identity is already very good, with the guest of the Chamber of Commerce, the fourth-level alchemist, and the fourth-level refiner. With this, Wei Zhong can get in touch with various opportunities at the fourth level, and he is really reluctant to give it up so easily.

"The only way is to find a way to speed up the growth of spiritual plants!"

Wei Zhong had looked for this method in the past few decades, but those methods were only for spiritual plants that were 100 years old. Once the spiritual plants reached 1,000 years old, the effect would be greatly reduced.

For spiritual plants that were nearly 10,000 years old, it was completely useless.

"If this Golden Thunder Bamboo can be cultivated within a hundred years, Ningying will be confident."

As for finding another Ten Thousand Years Golden Thunder Bamboo, Wei Zhong wouldn't even dare to think about it.

After reaching the current level, Wei Zhong realized how lucky he was to find a clump of Golden Thunder Bamboo in the secret realm with several foundation building and pill formations.

The value of thunder attribute spiritual plants is often higher than that of the same level, let alone the golden thunder bamboo with evil-proof effect.

‘After reaching the 10,000-year level, the thunder and lightning derived from the Golden Thunder Bamboo will undergo a qualitative change and turn into a special thunder and lightning called evil-warming divine thunder. ’

This kind of thunder and lightning is so powerful that it can destroy the Yuanying body and even the original Yuanying body. It can break all kinds of evil spells, and even has a specific effect on demonic cultivation techniques.

This powerful effect naturally made Wei Zhong very envious, but the spiritual bamboo grew slowly, and Wei Zhong was helpless.

With a sigh, Wei Zhong looked around.

Most of the spiritual bamboos in the bamboo forest are grown from the root system of the thousand-year-old Golden Thunder Bamboo. They range from a few years to hundreds of years and are not of great use.

There are only twenty or thirty plants that are more than a thousand years old.

After a careful inventory, Wei Zhong returned to the small courtyard again to practice in seclusion.

I don't know how much time passed, but the white jade token at my waist suddenly trembled.

Wei Zhong finished his work and picked it up. He looked into it with his spiritual consciousness and found that someone was greeting him.

"Fellow Taoist, do you need a method to induce the birth of spiritual plants? I wonder what level of spiritual creatures it is for?"

Wei Zhong looked at the other party's identity information.

"Fuyunzi, the early stage of Nascent Soul."

‘What kind of person is this? It’s a rather unfamiliar name. It seems that he is not from Yunzhou. ’

"Exactly, the spiritual beings spawned by me are nearly ten thousand years old. Is there anything you can do about it, fellow Taoist?"

After Wei Zhong replied, he waited quietly.

It took a while before I saw the reply.

"Pindao, this method only targets spiritual plants that are less than five thousand years old, but it cannot meet the needs of fellow Taoists."

Wei Zhong looked at this statement without much emotion on his face. During the time when the news was released, Wei Zhong had already experienced this kind of disappointment many times.

"But I do have some relevant information in my hands. I only need five low-grade infant training pills to exchange for it."

Wei Zhong couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

‘It would be too greedy to exchange five pieces of Infant Training Pills from myself for a piece of news. ’

"Fellow Taoist, you really know how to open your mouth like a lion. It's just a piece of news, and you want to buy five fourth-level lower-grade Infant Training Pills."

"Haha, fellow Taoist, don't be impatient. Just listen to what I have to say. There is a spiritual mountain in the north of the border between West Desert and Yunzhou. There is a spiritual liquid on it that can be used to give birth to spiritual plants that are less than ten thousand years old... ··

This news will be sent to fellow Taoists for free. "

‘Free things are the most expensive! ’

Fuyunzi only told part of the information, indicating that he had such a high-level spiritual object, but the more critical part was silent, whetting Wei Zhong's appetite.

"This information will give Taoist friends at most two Infant Training Pills..."

"No, two low-quality coins are too few..."

Wei Zhong bargained with them and finally settled on the transaction price of three elixirs.

One month later, Wei Zhong delivered the elixir to the Yunji Chamber of Commerce and also received the complete information left by Fu Yunzi.

"Beiyuan frozen soil, Shuangwuling Mountain?"

Wei Zhong looked at the description in the information, then checked the attached map, and finally understood the location of this spiritual mountain.

Rather than saying it is at the junction of Western Desert and Yunzhou, it is better to say that this place is located in the northwest of Yunzhou, close to the northern Zangyuan.

"It's really far away."

It would take a Danjie monk a year to fly at full speed in a straight line, not to mention avoiding the territories of the major sects along the way.

Wei Zhong estimated that it would take him at least two years to reach this spiritual mountain.

And it doesn't mean that Wei Zhong can take possession of such spiritual objects, but that he needs to compete with others.

This spiritual object is called Yinxiao Yulu, and it is produced in Shuangwuling Mountain only once every five hundred years. It has been more than four hundred years since the last time.

It will be produced again in more than eighty years, attracting many nearby pill-forming and even Nascent Soul monks to compete for it.

‘More than eighty years is enough time for me to practice to the late stage of pill formation. By then, I will be sure to obtain this thing with the help of [Year Dao Technique]. ’

After Wei Zhong understood the details, he immediately put away the jade slip of information.

‘Three Infant Training Pills are worth it in exchange for this news. ’

With this thought in mind, Wei Zhong closed his eyes and started to practice the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Technique" here.

······

It has been ten years since Wei Zhong went shopping for spiritual objects. During this period, Wei Zhong successively received various messages from the jade tablets, but most of them ended up being disappointed.

The means to cultivate high-level spiritual plants are rare, and the methods provided by many people are not even as reliable as Fuyunzi's information.

At the same time, I received several alchemy commissions, and the rewards were all high-grade spiritual stones.

No one used rare spiritual objects as reward, which disappointed Wei Zhonghaosheng.

After leaving the seclusion, spiritual energy gathered on Qingbo Island, turning into a cyclone and gathering somewhere on the spiritual island.

"Is someone building a foundation?"

Wei Zhong searched with his spiritual sense and found that it was Hu Jinchuan who was trying to build the foundation.

This movement was not only seen by Wei Zhong, but also the servants on Lingdao were attracted by it.

Everyone looked at the retreat place with envy.

"Master Hu is actually going to build a foundation!"

"Yeah, I don't know when I can reach this level."

Since Hu Jinchuan became the alchemist, no one has dared to add the word "小" to his title.

Now that he is about to build his foundation, his status will be higher.

"Building a foundation!"

Zou Ruiyuan looked at the spiritual energy cyclone in the air and felt infinite emotion.

'The old man who came to the island with me at the beginning has now passed away because of his life span. Only I can survive after building my foundation.

This immortal road is really cruel.

But now, there is finally a foundation-building cultivator on Qingbo Island, and I have a fellow cultivator to accompany me. '

Thinking that the other party is a member of the Hu family, the descendant of Hu Zongfu, Zou Ruiyuan's eyes appeared with a touch of sadness.

After the spiritual energy cyclone lasted for two months, it slowly dissipated. After another month, the door of the stone chamber where he was in seclusion slowly opened.

Hu Jinchuan's figure appeared from it, and people from the outside world all bowed and congratulated:

"Congratulations to Master Hu Dan for building a foundation successfully!"

Hu Jinchuan returned the greeting with courtesy, and did not get impatient because of his own foundation building.

Zou Ruiyuan walked out of the crowd:

"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Hu on his successful foundation building!"

After congratulating him, he added:

"The island master told you to go to Yunqing Courtyard after you successfully build your foundation..."

Hu Jinchuan nodded, and with the help of Zou Ruiyuan, he left the enthusiastic crowd and flew to Yunqing Courtyard.

He landed in a small courtyard, knocked on the door gently, and then heard the familiar voice.

"Come in!"

Hu Jinchuan pushed the door open and saw Wei Zhong lying on a rattan chair in the courtyard.

He bowed and saluted:

"Meet the island master!"

Wei Zhong shook the folding fan in his hand and murmured:

"After practicing for nearly a hundred years, I finally succeeded in building my foundation. It's really not easy."

"Jinchuan's talent is dull, which disappoints the island master."

Wei Zhong remembered that although the other party was a different kind of wind spirit root, the grade was not high, but low-grade.

Now it took a hundred years to build a foundation, it seems that it is still the middle and lower of the low-grade.

In the future, not only will there be no hope of forming a pill, but it may not even be possible to reach the middle or late stages of foundation building.

"Pah!"

Wei Zhong closed his folding fan, sat up from the rattan chair, walked to the edge of the stone table, and controlled the teapot on the table with his spiritual power to pour out two cups of hot spiritual tea.

"Sit down!"

Hu Jinchuan sat down as ordered, and heard Wei Zhong ask:

"How is the progress of the alchemy?"

Hu Jinchuan replied:

"Nine pills can basically be produced for the Qi-nourishing Pill, and the probability of the three grades of upper, middle and lower is 10%, 30%, and 60%."

'Nine pills can be produced at a time, but the probability of the upper grade is only 10%. So it is impossible to produce a stable output of the upper grade Qi-nourishing Pill.

This talent for alchemy can only be described as ordinary. It is far inferior to himself and Ning Jiaqi at the beginning. '

Seeing Wei Zhong's silence, Hu Jinchuan immediately felt guilty:

"Jinchuan is dull! I am ashamed of the island owner's cultivation!"
