Ning Junyi stood up and said with a smile: "Junior brother, take the name first and then talk about it, there is a wisp of Gengjin murderous intention."

Wang Qi nodded and said, "Senior brother, do you know the combat power of the people participating in the competition this time?"

Ning Junyi said: "Well, there are not many masters. The crisis in this area is too great. The first three times I went there were all the people inside, which is scary. Those who are willing to go are doing it for a better future. With my junior brother's magical power, There should be no problem getting in the top three.”

Even he himself did not want to participate in this competition. He had also seen people in the Tao realm in the past. Some people at the peak of Qi refining were much higher than him in Taoism. They had not returned, which showed the danger.

"Thank you, senior brother, for telling me." Wang Qi stood up and thanked him.

Ning Junyi pondered for a moment and then said: "Junior brother, I have to keep some thoughts in mind. Only the prize for the first place is interesting. If junior brother loses, he might as well give up to the top three."

"That's why."

"It is said that only the top three go to the Lihuo Dao Domain to act."

"In that realm, how many disciples can each sect have?" Wang Qi said. If the sect only sent three people to face dozens of enemies, he would want to retreat just thinking about it.

Ning Junyi shook his head and said: "I don't know the specific number, but I think it won't be too many. In the first three times, it was said that there were six or seven people."

Wang Qi thought carefully after hearing this. If they only had three people, the other five sects would be forty or fifty, and there would be all the monsters in Nan Yanzhou. Just looking at the ratio of these numbers, he knew there were many dangers.

It's just that the Lihuo Dao Domain, as you can tell by the name, is a place of fire. Now he is lacking the fire spiritual essence to refine the Taoist body. He must embark on a journey. As for the danger, the road of cultivation must face difficulties. superior!

"Thank you, senior brother." Wang Qi saluted and thanked him.

He walked out of the Taibai Hall and thought to himself: If you want to win this first place, you must be fully prepared.

The spirit stones on my body have never been touched. I opened the Qiankun bag and checked. I found more than fifty kilograms of star sand gold, more than 30,000 spirit stones, and a spirit-swallowing beast body. This is a good thing. If it can be made into a protective armor, It is a high-grade defensive weapon. Wait until tomorrow to go to the big city of cultivation at the foot of the mountain.

Since he started practicing, he has never had a big expense. All the items he used were obtained from battles. In the past, he needed very little and relied entirely on his martial arts. But now it is different. The cultivation of various techniques requires heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and some He couldn't buy the items with money, not to mention that he didn't have any money yet, and he didn't know if the money he had saved so far would be enough for this time.

Back in his small courtyard, ever since he learned about the three stages of Qi refining, he has been thinking about the art of condensing mana.

That day, in the sound of Lin Long's piano, his sea of ​​qi changed again, splitting into nine. It was no longer like the original big whirlpool, but evolved into four mountains and seas, each with its own magic power to be exercised. In the end, the eight powers returned. One day, he entered the source of the Qi Sea. From then on, he exercised his magic power every day.

Under his guidance, a ray of mana has to be condensed eight times before it finally merges into the air and sea. This ray of mana is crystal clear and extremely tough, and it also contains the nine powers of mountains and seas. It is more liquid than before. It was three points stronger, and although it was not in a crystallized state, he felt that he was no longer inferior to the crystallized mana.

He named this Qi: Nine Revolutions Qi. If he refines it with all his strength every day, he can get three mouthfuls of Nine Revolutions Qi. Now, the Nine Revolutions Qi he has refined is ten miles in size, but compared to the 400 miles of mana that has not been refined yet. Say, it's far from enough.

The next day, in the Five Directions Hall.

Wang Qi came to the counter, took out the handwriting of the head of the Lin family, handed over the order, and received three thousand good deeds.

The junior sister at the counter looked at Wang Qi and secretly thought that this person was unknown, but he was so powerful that he could complete the tasks of four or five people with one person.

In the Chuan Gong Hall, the last time Wang Qi chose a skill, he also fell in love with a book of mantras called: Immobilization Curse.

It is a spiritual attack that immobilizes the enemy's body by shaking the soul and transporting mana. The greater the difference between the two divine wills and mana, the greater the power. This technique has exactly three thousand good deeds.

He originally had a secret technique of shocking stabbing, which evolved into the mantra with the word "Edict". He was deeply aware of the power and speed of the spell, so he exchanged it for this spell.

At the foot of the Five Elements Sect Mountain, there is a city named Dongyang City.

It is the largest city under the rule of the Five Elements Sect, with a radius of a hundred miles, and is located in the main road of the Five Mountains. The shops in it are crowded and very prosperous. Whether they are disciples of the sect or visitors from the north and south, they all come here to trade and buy elixirs and magic weapons.

The city is backed by five mountains. There are thousands of colorful lights in the sky, and there is an endless flow of people on the ground.

There are four main roads in the north and south, dividing this big city into squares. There is a treasure pavilion with spiritual light rising, a weapon shop shining brightly, and various buildings rising from the ground, dozens of feet high, layer by layer. The pearls are shining brightly, showing the prosperous scene.

"Daye True Treasure"

It is a workshop that specializes in refining magic weapons. It is quite famous in Dongyang City. Many disciples of the sect have visited it and it has a good reputation.

The store is not big. There are several display racks inside, displaying some of the store's products. Some are flashing with golden light, and some are rising with purple clouds.

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man, dressed in rich clothes, with a dignified appearance. When he saw a guest coming in, he put down the magic weapon he was studying and asked, "I don't know if you want to buy the finished product or refine the treasure."

Wang Qi looked around and saw that the price of these things was fair. He bowed his hands and said, "I want to refine a piece of armor. I have my own materials."

"I wonder what kind of material it is?" the shopkeeper said with a smile. Some customers brought their own materials, but how can this Qi refiner hunt high-grade monsters? Some people may have some rare treasures, but there are no supplementary materials required for such items. It's cheap, and what's more, I can't even afford the wages.

Wang Qi glanced around: "It's not easy to put it down here, but there are other places."

The shopkeeper was slightly interested and said, "Please come to the backyard."

He stretched out his hand and cast a magic power onto the formation plate beside him. The door was immediately closed by the formation. He led the way and the two of them walked forward to the backyard. The yard was quite wide, with a magic platform built in the center, surrounded by There are also many talismans.

Wang Qi took out the Qiankun Bag, shook his hand, and a three-foot-long demon beast suddenly appeared in the center of the field. It was covered in crystal armor, and its spiritual power was flowing in colorful colors. He said: "Shopkeeper, let's see what this is. .”

The shopkeeper's eyes gradually became brighter, and he walked forward and stared at it: "It turned out to be an adult spirit-swallowing beast. The outer armor is well preserved and the inner skin has no scars. It's a friendly approach."

While he was exploring, he said, "This beast can be made into one piece of outer armor and half a body of inner armor. What do you think, fellow Taoist?"

Wang Qi nodded and asked, "I wonder how much it costs to refine?" He was happy, but he didn't expect to be able to refine two pieces of armor.

The shopkeeper pondered for a moment and then said: "After the two armors are made, the remaining materials will be included in the cost, plus five thousand spiritual stones, how about." This beast is also rare, and after making the two armors, there are many The surplus can be used to cover the expenses.

"But I don't know what effect this armor will have after it is refined." Wang Qixin said that the price was indeed fair. When he came here this time, he also inquired with his senior brother to understand the market situation.

"The outer armor is extremely hard. Generally speaking, swords and magic weapons are harmless. If the Qi Refiner's magic attack is attacked, it may be able to block 50% to 60%. Although your spirit swallower is an adult, its lifespan is still short. It is estimated that after being refined, it can block 30% to 50%. The inner armor is soft and has excellent toughness, and can withstand about 30% of the magic power.

Adding the two together, it can block 50% of the mana, which is considered a top-grade magic weapon. "The shopkeeper clearly stated the efficacy one by one. He made it clear that this armor can only block the magic power of the Qi Refiner, but the Jindan Master is completely different.

"Fifty percent mana!" Wang Qi said in surprise. This kind of defensive magic weapon is really rare, especially if it can be converted into armor to resist mana. Although he is not afraid of ordinary Qi refiners now, having the armor on him makes him feel more at ease. He asked again : "What if it's the magic power of Master Jin Dan."

The shopkeeper laughed and said: "Although it is useful, it is not very powerful. It may be able to block 10% or 20% of the magic power, but this armor will definitely be broken."

"I wonder how long it will take to do it?" Wang Qi secretly thought. Sure enough, the magic power of the real person moved the world, and even if this spirit-swallowing armor could not stop it, it was only 10% to 20%, which is already very good.

"It can take as little as two or three months, or as long as six months. Fellow Taoist, you can give me the name card. I will send someone to notify you when it is ready."

"Then I'll trouble you, fellow Taoist." Wang Qi took out his badge, used magic power to engrave a name card, and handed it to the shopkeeper.

After the shopkeeper took it, he said: "It turns out to be Mr. Wang Daoyou. I am the shopkeeper of our shop. I don't know what kind of armor you want." As he spoke, the shopkeeper put the spirit-swallowing beast into the Qiankun bag and took it again. Publish a book full of Jiawei patterns.

Wang Qi took it and took a look. There were many styles, including full-body armor and half-body armor, with different shapes. He chose the two simplest styles. The inner armor was soft clothing for the upper body, and the outer armor was a simple corset armor. He told The Tao should not be fancy or too colorful, just be simple and plain.

Tantaidu laughed and nodded. The two discussed some details, and Wang Qi left the store.

In this day, he visited three treasure shops, one Kung Fu pavilion and two magic weapon shops in the city, but found nothing.

Most importantly, it's too expensive! !

There are still more than 20,000 spirit stones, and the better magic weapons are around 30,000 to 50,000 spirit stones. If the treasure weapon starts at least 100,000, it is really not enough with his little family wealth. He looks down on ordinary treasures, so He couldn't afford it, so he sighed secretly, thinking that he would wait until he went to the exchange meeting tomorrow to check it out.

This exchange meeting is organized by a Duobao shop owner and is held once a month. The shop owner is an alchemist in the late stage of Qi refining. His elixirs have a good reputation. There are some forces in the city. After discussing with some shops, they formed After participating in this exchange meeting, as time went by, the number of people gradually increased, and they became somewhat famous in Dongyang City.

As night falls, the streets are still brightly lit.

The owner of Duobao shop is a middle-aged man, gentle and elegant. Wang Qi came into the shop and saluted, and then showed him Ning Junyi's name card. The man smiled and nodded, without asking any questions, gave him a mask, and brought He entered the backyard, where many people were waiting.

The courtyard is not big, with many stone tables and chairs around it. There is a platform in the middle, which is simple and plain. Outside the surrounding courtyard walls, there are some flowers, plants and trees, and there seems to be mist flowing in it. I don't know what kind of formation it is.

Wang Qi found a remote location and sat down. This mask was quite interesting. Not only could it block the gaze, but it could also block the detection of spiritual thoughts, making it impossible for people to see the true content inside.

Not long after, more than ten people arrived one after another.

Wang Qi closed his eyes and observed secretly with his six senses. The people who came in were all Qi-refining people. He was also glanced at several times. One of them had a slightly chilly look, which made him feel awe-inspiring.

At this time, the shop owner entered the courtyard and came to the central platform. He was not wearing a mask and was dressed in brocade clothes. He had a calm and steady demeanor. After looking around for a week, he said in a deep voice: "Fellow Taoists, without further ado, let's start the exchange. "

A pill bottle suddenly appeared on the platform: "This is Qingling Jade Liquid, which can instantly restore 50% of the Qi Refiner's mana. There are ten drops in it, which can be exchanged for spiritual grass that is more than five hundred years old."

Within three breaths, a man came on stage, took out a jade box, and showed it to the shop owner.

The shopkeeper nodded, the two exchanged, and then asked everyone: "I wonder who will come up to show the exchange."

As soon as he finished speaking, a man stood up and came to the stage. He bowed to the shop owner and then came to the front of the stage.

With a wave of his hand, a dark brown wooden box appeared on the stage. With a solemn expression, he slowly opened it. There was a red silk base inside, and a dark and lightless dagger was displayed in front of everyone.

The man's voice was hoarse and said: "This is a low-grade treasure weapon, the Shadow Pattern Thorn. I would like to exchange it for a Soul Restoration Pill or 80,000 spiritual stones."

If you buy a low-grade treasure in a store, it will cost around 100,000 yuan. This person's asking price is not high. But the soul-restoring pill is more rare. This pill is used to treat people who are possessed by evil spirits or whose souls are incomplete. After a long time, no one comes to replace them, so the next person naturally takes over.

People on the stage left one after another, but none of them were what Wang Qi needed, but they gave him a lot of knowledge, all kinds of things, everything unusual.

Time passed, and the exchange meeting came to an end. At this time, another person came on stage. The person's voice changed, making it impossible to distinguish between men, women, and children. He opened a wooden box, and there was a book inside.

This person said: "One part of the Jiuhe Sword Formation, exchange it for ten kilograms of the best flying sword spiritual material."
