Chapter 141 Dong Li: Zhang Wei, I'm Stuck
In order to avoid the recurrence of Zhu Qin's incident, Zhang Wei not only did not show up, but also sent seven foundation-building masters under his command to clean up the battlefield.
He took the third-level spiritual talisman he had bought during this period to clean up all the harvest, and after ensuring that there would be no tracking methods, he was relieved to take the harvest on the road.
Through some signs, Zhang Wei figured out the identity of this group of robbers.
Zhang Wei murmured: "It turns out that this group of people are cultivators from the Lei family. No wonder they are so good at thunder magic and dare to rob the merchant ships of the Venus Chamber of Commerce."
The Lei family is not in the Seven Star Sea, but in the Thunder Sea next to the Seven Star Sea.
It is said that there are three Yuanying Zhenjun in the family, so although the comprehensive strength is not as good as the Seven Star Sea as a whole, it is also better than any single force on the Seven Star Island.
Especially the family's unique skill, the Blood Killing Demon Thunder, makes all the cultivators and monsters in the surrounding seas terrified.
With such a background, as long as they acted secretly enough and ran fast enough, even if the Venus Chamber of Commerce discovered the real murderer afterwards, they would not be able to go to the Thunder Sea to arrest him, and could only suffer this loss.
But what kind of interests could make these two Lei family purple palaces bring people to the Seven Star Sea to hijack the ship?
Zhang Wei looked for it, but did not find any secret letters in the mustard bags and Xumi rings of these Lei family hijackers. He could only hope to find some information on the cargo of the Venus merchant ship.
This ship must be loaded with something that is very useful to the Lei family cultivators, otherwise these two Lei family purple palaces would not have come all the way here.
However, it is estimated that it is not a fifth-level treasure useful to Yuanying Zhenjun, otherwise the one sent to guard this thing would not be just a purple palace early stage cultivator, at least a Jindan Zhenren would have to accompany him.
Then Zhang Wei asked people to open the cargo boxes one by one. Although some treasures were found, it can only be said that it is still very useful for ordinary purple palace cultivators, but for Zhang Wei now, it is better than nothing.
Could it be that this group of Lei family members were preparing to go back after finishing their business in the Seven Star Sea, and when they saw the merchant ship of the Venus Chamber of Commerce, they suddenly wanted to take advantage of it?
Just when Zhang Wei was puzzled, Dong Li Qingtong suddenly said: "Wait, there is something wrong with this medicine cauldron."
"Huh?"
Zhang Wei was stunned, and then saw Dong Li Qingtong walking with his short legs to an ordinary green medicine cauldron of only the third-level primary grade, and then constantly knocking on it.
Zhang Wei was watching from the side.
Although he has learned a lot from Dong Li Qingtong over the years, after all, most of his time has to be spent on improving his cultivation. In terms of knowledge and vision, he is still not as good as this five-foot loli.
Then, after Dong Li Qingtong did something unknown, the green medicine cauldron in front of him slowly changed color under a dim light, and turned into a strange treasure cauldron that seemed to be made of red crystal.
What made Zhang Wei even more surprised was that although the main material was a fire-attributed spiritual material, the surface was engraved with lightning spirit patterns.
And the aura was also rising step by step, and soon it reached the fourth level from the third-level primary grade!
Zhang Wei was surprised and said: "This is actually a fourth-level primary grade talisman!"
Then Dong Li Qingtong made a series of investigations and finally figured out the function of this talisman.
He said: "The effect of this talisman should be to transform the spiritual fire into thunder slurry and spiritual liquid, and the thunder slurry produced can increase the power of the cultivation and spells of the cultivators who practice thunder magic.
This talisman can also be used to refine pills, which is much stronger than the effect of ordinary medicine cauldrons, and it also has a certain effect of reducing the power of heavenly tribulation. It can be said that it is extremely valuable and is more attractive to cultivators in the false pill realm than the fourth-level upper-grade talisman."
Gathering fire into thunder?
The thermal power generator of the cultivation world?
Zhang Wei thought as he looked at the red spiritual cauldron.
Then he remembered that the treasure ship of the Venus Chamber of Commerce also looked like it was going to the direction of the Xuanyang Sect ruins, so he asked.
"By the way, the Xuanyang Sect has a geocentric fire vein, and it seems to be of a high level."
Dong Li Qingtong nodded and said, "Well, it seems that the people of the Venus Chamber of Commerce want to take this thing to the Xuanyang Sect ruins to absorb the geocentric fire power and transform it into thunder plasma, and then offer it to a big shot of the Chamber of Commerce to practice thunder magic. Unexpectedly, the people of the Lei family got the news, so they took the risk to snatch this treasure!"
Zhang Wei was shocked when he heard it: "Hey... this is a fuss."
Dong Li Qingtong continued: "In order to continue to seek immortality at a higher level, there is no risk that cannot be taken, even if there is only a slight chance. Whether in Dongzhou or in the Five Regions, everyone in this world is like this!"
Hearing Dong Li Qingtong's words, Zhang Wei couldn't help but think of Jiang Shun again.
He was like this in the past...
Then, Dong Li Qingtong reached out and touched the surface of the red spirit cauldron and said: "It can only be blamed on their bad luck. They worked hard for a long time, but in the end, all the benefits were given to us who passed by..."
"Maybe one day in the future, the opportunity we worked hard for a long time will just be used to make wedding clothes for others."
Dong Li Qingtong turned his head and looked at Zhang Wei, saying meaningfully.
Zhang Wei was silent for a while, then laughed inexplicably, put away the red spirit cauldron, and said: "So continue to practice, in the final analysis, it is still strength. Only with sufficient strength can we prevent the kind of thing you said from happening."
"It just so happens that I have this spirit cauldron. When I go to the ruins of Xuanyang Sect, I will use the earth's core fire veins there to condense the lightning magma. I guess I will have all the resources for practice in the next ten years."
Then, Zhang Wei called on his subordinate Zhu Ji to urge the Golden Meili to the ruins of Xuanyang Sect with all his strength.
With the Golden Meili flying at full speed, after another three months, Zhang Wei and his party finally arrived at the island where the Xuanyang Sect ruins are located.
As the most prosperous Jindan Sect here, Xuanyang Island is still very large, several times larger than the Danxian Island where Zhang Wei lived before.
Unfortunately, five hundred years ago, in order to resist the beast tide, the last generation of the Xuanyang Sect lost to a golden elixir demon king and died. The Xuanyang Sect was also destroyed by the raging beast tide.
Even the third-level spiritual veins on the island were destroyed by the golden elixir demon king using secret methods, and then left with most of the spiritual vein fragments under the expulsion of other golden elixir monks who arrived.
The remaining spiritual vein fragments were later reunited by the Demon Shark Sect next door using secret methods to form a first-order spiritual vein.
Relying on this spiritual vein, the Demon Shark Sect developed a city, and even used the spiritual energy of the spiritual vein to re-activate the Xuanyang Sect's broken formation, allowing it to be activated every half a century.
Every time it is opened, a few lucky people will find some of the Xuanyang Sect's unplundered wealth and soar into the sky, attracting batches of casual cultivators to come to hunt for treasures.
As for whether these people found the treasure or made a fortune, I don't know, but the various merchants in Xuanyangfang City made a lot of money by providing supporting equipment for casual cultivators.
After browsing the information about Xuanyangfang City, Zhang Wei couldn't help but sigh.
There are talents in this Demon Shark Sect!
It's a pity that I don't have a fixed place to live now, otherwise I would have to discuss business avenues with the senior in the Demon Shark Sect who suggested doing this all night long!
Oh... I've already passed away...
Forget it.
When Zhang Wei and his party arrived at Xuanyang Island, it was still seven or eight years before the Xuanyang Sect ruins were reopened.
But Zhang Wei and Dongli Qingtong have no interest in waiting here for so long.
The left and right are just broken formations, the kind controlled by the Demon Shark Sect and powered by the first-level spiritual veins. The highest level cannot exceed the second level!
For Zhang Wei, a third-level first-level formation mage, and Dongli Qingtong, a quasi-fourth-level formation mage, how difficult is this challenge?
Zhang Wei directly asked his foundation builders to keep an eye on the ship. He took Dongli Qingtong with him and used the electromagnetic invisibility cover to sneakily find an uninhabited place and start picking the lock.
Relying on the Forbidden Breaking Key and Spirit Separation Gate that he had just refined some time ago, Zhang Wei easily led Dongli Qingtong in without attracting the slightest attention from the foundation-building guards stationed in Xuanyangfang City.
After entering the magic circle, what Zhang Wei saw was ruins. Judging from the scale of the buildings, some of the former Xuanyang Sect's style could still be found in them.
It's a pity that now they are all ancient.
Zhang Wei used the power of his spiritual thoughts to detect the surroundings, and after confirming that there was no danger within a radius of 200 miles, he asked: "Dongli, do you know where the warehouse is?"
"As long as it guides you."
Dongli Qingtong took out the Xuanyang Nuan Yu that he had taken from Shangxian City in the past to stimulate, and then a small dot appeared on the Nuan Yu.
It feels like Dragon Ball Radar.
Zhang Wei cursed in his heart, and then took Dongli flying for a while, and soon came to a collapsed attic.
With a wave of his hand, the ruins of the attic and its foundation were directly removed by a pot of invisible force, exposing the ground below.
After scraping the land a few more times, a narrow crack appeared in front of Zhang Wei and Dongli Qingtong.
Thinking that there was something inside that could possibly cure the evil wind in her body, Dongli Qingtong was so excited that she couldn't control herself, and took advantage of her small body to get in first.
Zhang Wei smiled helplessly, but followed closely. Although he was relatively large, he could easily widen the passage with some earth spells.
Soon, Dongli Qingtong reached the end. Looking at the dent in front of him that was the same size as the Xuanyang Warm Jade in his hand, he stuffed it directly.
Crunch…
With a sound like the engine turning due to lack of lubricating oil, a crack slowly opened in front of Dongli Qingtong, and the cave wall in front slowly moved to the left and right like two large doors.
Dongli Qingtong's eyes lit up, and then he immediately got in!
And then...she got stuck.
"Um?"
Dongli Qingtong turned around and looked at the lower body stuck outside by the two doors, a look of shame and annoyance suddenly appeared on her face.
This damn door is jammed because it hasn't been repaired for too long! The exposed gap was just enough for my upper body to fit in, but my lower body was stuck outside because my butt was too big!
"Um---"
Dongli Qingtong held the door with both hands and tried hard to push it open, but the strength of her body could not shake the door, and she was exhausted in the end.
"Huh...huh..."
Dongli Qingtong blushed and said breathlessly: "Damn it! Why is this happening!"
"Stop struggling and let me do it."
At this time, Zhang Wei's voice came from outside the door.
At this moment, he had widened the nearby passage a lot. With the light, he could just see Dongli Qingtong's buttocks that were caught outside by the door, and he immediately understood what was going on.
After complaining in his mind that the P station was stuck in the plot of the Immortal Cultivation World version, Zhang Wei walked forward directly, supported one side of the stone door with both hands, and then gave a low drink.
"open!"
The muscles in both arms bulged, and under the exertion of a nearly fourth-level physical body, this dusty stone gate could not withstand this terrifying force. Amidst a burst of harsh sounds, it was violently pushed away by Zhang Wei!
Quack... empty!
As the stone door shattered, Dongli Qingtong, who had escaped from the trap, immediately stood up, ran to the side with small steps, and then looked at Zhang Wei with a blushing face.
Zhang Wei asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
"nothing……"
Dongli Qingtong replied in a muffled voice, then walked forward quickly with a blushing face.
Just now...she accidentally touched it.
Seriously, it's scary.
Zhang Wei followed Dongli Qingtong and walked in. After walking through a corner, what he saw was a splendid interior.
"hiss……"
Zhang Wei exclaimed: "Did the last generation of Xuanyang Sect's leader line his own pockets? He made this warehouse so luxurious!"
At this time, Dongli Qingtong also recovered from the embarrassment just now, and said: "Anyway, that is also a real Jindan, and the gold interior is actually not much, only more than one hundred thousand taels, and its main function is as a gold elixir. The corner of the magic circle pulls the spiritual energy to nourish these treasures. "
Then Dongli Qingtong reached out and touched it, smashing a bright-looking spiritual plant next to it into crumbs.
He sighed: "It's a pity. After the Xuanyang Sect was destroyed, the spiritual veins were destroyed, and the spiritual energy received here was not much. Many things have been washed away by time."
Zhang Wei opened a pill bottle and saw the stinking pills inside. He couldn't help but think of the scene he saw in the tomb of Master Luoxia, and said with emotion: "Time is merciless."
Then Zhang Wei and Dongli Qingtong searched the warehouse and found that except for a small number of elixirs and talismans that survived, everything else had weathered.
However, Zhang Wei is very fond of some precious spiritual materials and collections of books, especially those spiritual materials, many of which are fourth-level treasures!
There are also two pieces of more than 500 kilograms of fourth-level spiritual gold!
The value of these spiritual materials alone made Zhang Wei's trip worthwhile.
Then Dongli Qingtong discovered a huge brown-black stove in a compartment that could fit a whole person inside.
"This is……"
Dongli Qingtong looked at it for a few times, and then said in surprise: "Slimming Furnace!"
"Slimming stove?"
Zhang Wei walked over and took a look, and found that it was indeed the legendary treasure that could not only improve the cultivation qualifications of immortal cultivators, speed up cultivation, and cure injuries and illnesses.
It's just that the difference between this self-cultivation furnace and a certain one-person self-cultivation furnace is that if you want to use this thing, you must invest in heavenly materials and earthly treasures with corresponding attributes.
For example, in the case of Dongli Qingtong, it is necessary to invest in yang-attributed heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and then transform them through the self-cultivation furnace and then instill them into Dongli Qingtong's body to heal her body.
It can be said that it is also a money-burning thing.
But for Dongli Qingtong, it just solved her urgent need.
However, after Zhang Wei checked it, he frowned and said: "It's a pity that it hasn't been maintained for a long time. It can only be regarded as a third-level mid-level talisman, but it should be enough for you Dongli, right?"
"I'll try first..."
As Dongli Qingtong said, he took out some Yang attribute elixir and put it into the self-cultivation furnace. He couldn't wait to start it regardless of the dust accumulated in the furnace.
Rumble————
In this way, half a day passed.
After the power of the elixir was exhausted, the self-cultivation furnace was turned on, and Dongli Qingtong walked out with a gloomy look. His body was still covered with dust that had not been cleaned, so he looked very embarrassed.
Looking at Dongli Qingtong's face, Zhang Wei roughly guessed something.
This self-cultivation furnace... I'm afraid it's not ideal.
Dongli Qingtong said angrily: "The efficiency of this broken furnace is not high enough! After a long time of tossing, it is not as much as the evil wind you can remove in an hour!"
After saying that, he was about to kick the stove. Zhang Wei quickly stopped him and said with relief: "This is good news. After all, I can't treat you every day. With this, as long as there is enough Yang Qi, Supply, even if the efficiency is slower, over time, your recovery progress will not be slow. "
Dongli Qingtong lowered her head and gritted her teeth: "That will take at least a month..."
"Don't worry, there will always be a way, and I will help you." Zhang Wei said, this is all he can say now.
Always give people hope.
Dongli Qingtong sighed, and then said: "I want you to go quietly and collect the earth fire here. After collecting it, we will leave for Xuanxing City."
After saying that, Dongli Qingtong turned around and left. Zhang Wei looked at Dongli Qingtong's thin back and sighed, but still gave her some space to be alone, and turned around to go to the underground fire veins of Xuanyang Sect.
Dongli Qingtong stayed alone in the warehouse, looking at the self-cultivation furnace and recalling her current situation in her mind.
She is already over three hundred years old this year, and is only two hundred years away from the maximum lifespan of the ordinary Zifu.
Even if she could rely on the help of the Self-cultivation Furnace and Zhang Wei's Shaoyang Fire, it would take her a long time to remove the underworld wind from this crescent body.
What about the next half-moon body and full-moon body that were more seriously injured?
How long will it take?
Her cultivation of the Taiyin Miaohua Sutra is inherently difficult. When it comes time to survive the Golden Elixir Tribulation, she needs to reach the level of the False Elixir Realm in three months of her body, and then they can spend the Golden Elixir Tribulation together!
By the time she has eradicated all the negative winds from the underworld, I'm afraid she will be close to five hundred years old, even if she cultivates a body to the fake elixir realm to live another hundred years when her longevity is approaching.
So, will these one hundred years be enough to cultivate her remaining two bodies to the fake elixir realm?
Dongli Qingtong asked himself.
cannot.
Even with the full support of Linglong Immortal Island, this is almost impossible to accomplish.
Time is running out.
Is she... going to watch her lifespan approaching day by day, but she can't do anything?
Dongli Qingtong didn't have this idea before.
But today, after her hope was shattered, this idea emerged uncontrollably in her mind, and she couldn't get it away.
She...is afraid.
This was an emotion she had never felt in the past three hundred years.
I, Dongli Qingtong... don't want to die in such humiliation!
There must be a way... There must be a way!
On the other side, after Zhang Wei entered the underground fire veins of the Xuanyang Sect site, he seemed to suddenly sense something. Then he was surprised to penetrate several layers of lava walls and found a furnace surrounded by the flow of lava. Room.
And in this room, the blooming Flame Flowers are growing vigorously! At a rough count, the number reached more than three thousand!
Zhang Wei thought in surprise: "With so many Flame Refining Flowers, it will be enough for me to reach perfection in cultivation within thirty years! Dongli's illness can be cured!"
