As Li Xiuping took out the cauldron, countless alchemists immediately surrounded him, planning to feast their eyes on it.
After Li Xiuping took out the cauldron, he said: "The refining of the immortal elixir is extremely complicated. Watching the refining process will be of great benefit to you all, but please don't disturb me. If you have any doubts, wait for the refining." When it’s over, come find me again.”
Everyone nodded in agreement at the same time.
At this time, Master Qingming returned, stood directly next to Li Xiuping, and then arranged a formation around him to ensure that Li Xiuping would not be disturbed while refining alchemy. The alchemists also retreated outside the formation, which was just right. See clearly what is going on in the formation.
As Master Qingming appeared, Li Xiuping nodded to Master Qingming and sat down cross-legged.
At the same time, countless strong men from the Emperor Wu City and the Lingxiao Sect appeared one after another and guarded the surroundings. In this way, even if a strong man from the Fusion Stage did appear, he might not be able to threaten Li Xiuping's safety.
After Li Xiuping sat down, a raging flame burned in the cauldron, and then the medicinal materials emerged one by one in front of Li Xiuping, all of which were needed to refine the soul-melting pill.
Li Xiuping had already refined the soul-melting pill once before, so he was already very familiar with the refining steps, but he still went through it in his mind, filtered out possible problems one by one, and focused on them.
After confirming that there were no problems, Li Xiuping raised his hand, and the medicinal materials entered the cauldron one after another. Then, runes appeared around the entire cauldron, and a fire dragon could be faintly seen circling around the cauldron. It was the dragon soul that Li Xiuping obtained after condensing Yuan Dan.
The green water unicorn was also guarding Li Xiuping at this moment, ready to help at any time. After all, the last time Li Xiuping refined the soul-melting pill, he needed the ice attribute energy of the green water unicorn to reconcile the power of medicine and firepower.
Li Xiuping soon discovered that the refining process was much faster this time. The same medicinal materials used to take two or three days to complete, but now they were completed in less than two days.
At this rate, refining a soul-melting pill should only take half a month at most, instead of a month like before.
Moreover, something went wrong the last time he refined the Soul Melting Pill, which caused Li Xiuping to suffer backlash and fell into a long sleep. But it was also that sleep that caused many problems that already existed in his body. Being solved also laid the foundation for condensing the Yuan Dan later, and also gave him a deeper understanding and understanding of the immortal elixir.
It can be said that the fact that Li Xiuping was able to refine the medicinal materials so quickly was all due to that deep sleep. Of course, it was also due to the integration of the dragon, which allowed him to control the flames at will.
Time passed like this day by day, and Li Xiuping refined the medicinal materials again and again. Qingming Layman and Bishui Qilin were always by Li Xiuping's side. Outside were the alchemists watching. However, as time continued, these alchemists began to The excitement gradually turned into a bit boring. After all, the process of refining medicinal materials was indeed a bit boring.
During this period of time, there were no accidents in the entire Lingxiao Sect, so much so that the strong men responsible for guarding gradually relaxed their vigilance.
After almost ten days of this, Li Xiuping finally refined all the medicinal materials. The next step was to fuse these refined medicinal materials and condense them into elixirs.
According to Li Xiuping's speculation, since the refining process can shorten so much time, the time required for the fusion process should also be shortened.
Of course, Li Xiuping did not dare to be careless in any way.
If this is any other elixir, it will fail if it fails, which means it will be a waste of medicinal materials. But this is the soul-melting elixir. Once it fails, not only will a lot of precious medicinal materials be wasted, but the time and energy spent previously will also be wasted. Even he may suffer backlash.
Besides, he still has the attention of so many alchemists in his refining. If he fails, among other things, he will not be able to live up to his reputation. Although these people will not laugh at him in the future, his prestige will definitely be affected.
Therefore, the closer he got to the back and closer to Cheng Dan, the less Li Xiuping dared to be careless.
As Li Xiuping carefully fused, the refined medicinal materials began to fuse together one at a time. Finally, under the influence of the flames, they slowly rotated and condensed into a green young elixir. The entire Lingxiao sect's back mountain also contained medicine. The fragrance continued to fill the air, and under the influence of this medicinal fragrance, many birds and beasts began to be attracted, hovering over the Lingxiao Sect, and lingered for a long time.
Immortal elixirs bring about strange phenomena.
Looking at the green young pill in the cauldron, Li Xiuping finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The young elixir has been completed. All that needs to be done next is to control the flames until the elixir is completed. This process should take almost a day.
Early the next morning, it was still dark, and everyone was bleary-eyed. Many people even felt drowsy and somewhat awake.
The next moment, everyone was suddenly shocked by a terrifying momentum. A circle of ripple-like power continued to spread from the back mountain of Lingxiao Sect. In an instant, it had spread throughout the entire Lingxiao Sect, and was blown away by that energy. After the impact, everyone felt that a lot of changes had taken place in their bodies. Many people even felt that the power in their bodies had doubled, and their stagnant cultivation actually showed signs of loosening.
Everyone looked at the back mountain of Lingxiao Sect almost at the same time. At this moment, a beam of light rose directly from the back mountain of Lingxiao Sect and went straight into the sky.
Countless birds and beasts were constantly circling around the beam of light, looking extremely happy.
Now the entire Lingxiao Sect knows that Mr. Li, who is rumored to be more, is refining an immortal elixir called Soul Melting Pill in the back mountain. It is said that once this elixir is successfully refined, it can relieve distractions. The strong person in the later stage directly enters the combined stage and becomes a powerful person in the combined stage.
They didn't know whether the elixir was true or false, but many people were not optimistic about Mr. Li.
That is an elixir that can turn a strong man in the distraction stage into a strong one in the integration stage. How could a young man in his early twenties, a young man with only the cultivation level of the foundation building stage, possibly refine it? .
At this moment, feeling the fluctuations of this energy and the magical power of the elixir, everyone's face was filled with disbelief and shock.
Above the sea of clouds, streaks of thunder kept appearing. They were pill thunder that would only appear when the immortal elixir was born.
With these elixirs, the power of the elixir can be completely locked, and special elixir patterns can be formed on the elixir to determine the efficacy and grade of the elixir.
At this moment, the entire Lingxiao Sect, whether they are ordinary disciples, alchemists, weapon refiners, or those responsible for guarding, are all in high spirits at this moment. While watching the strange phenomenon of heaven and earth, they are also vigilant. All around.
This is an immortal elixir, and I don’t know how many powerful people covet it, so a large number of powerful people from Lingxiao Sect will definitely arrive soon, and there will even be some powerful monsters among them. And then there are the demons, I’m afraid There will also be some action.
The layman Qingming who had been standing next to Li Xiuping and guarding Li Xiuping, now slowly floated up, away from the large formation he had arranged before. At the same time, he took out the fairy sword Qingming on his back, and followed those The strong men from Emperor Wu City and Lingxiao Sect were vigilant about the surroundings.
Now that the elixir is ready, Li Xiuping does not need his protection. At least the alchemists below cannot pose any threat to Li Xiuping. So now he not only has to ensure Li Xiuping's safety, but also ensures that this immortal elixir will not be stolen. Others snatch it away.
This is one of the reasons why he, a strong combined man, does not fight against the demons, but is responsible for protecting Li Xiuping.
Li Xiuping's safety is important, but the elixir refined by Li Xiuping is as important as the immortal sword forged. It would be fine if it is not refined. Once it is successfully refined, it will inevitably attract many strong people to fight for it, especially for the points. It is easiest for those who are strong in the divine stage.
For those who are strong in the distraction stage, getting a soul-melting pill is equivalent to being qualified to enter the integration stage, and there will be no hindrance at all.
In other words, as long as there is a soul-melting pill, it is inevitable to enter the integration stage. One can imagine the temptation of such a magical pill.
When a strong person in the distraction stage tries to rob him, naturally only a strong person in the integration stage can frighten him. Moreover, if there are too many strong people in the distraction stage, a strong person in the integration stage may not be able to stabilize the situation, but this Qingming layman The difference is that he is not only a strong man in the Fusion Stage, but also a swordsman. His strength is difficult to find an opponent for even in the Fusion Stage.
Having such a strong person in the integration stage guarding Li Xiuping can not only ensure Li Xiuping's safety, but also ensure that the elixir refined by Li Xiuping and the sword forged by Li Xiuping will not be snatched by others. The biggest reason for being around Li Xiuping.
Sure enough, as the vision appeared, powerful auras continued to approach the Lingxiao Sect. However, after arriving around the Lingxiao Sect, these auras stopped one after another and no longer approached. Apparently, they were attracted by the powerful Qingming layman and those from the Emperor Wu City. Shocked by the person's breath.
Those who came at this time were actually just some Nascent Soul Stage monks, at most one or two God Transformation Stage powerhouses. The purpose of coming here was to watch the excitement and see if there was any benefit to be gained. Since I felt more With the existence of a powerful aura, there is no need to risk your own life to challenge the other party's patience.
Immediately afterwards, various powerful monsters began to appear one after another, but just like those strong human beings, they all stopped after approaching the Lingxiao Sect and did not dare to get closer.
These strong men did not approach, and Qingming Jie and the strong men in Emperor Wu City did not dare to be careless. After all, this was just the beginning. As time went on, the number of strong men who appeared would only increase and become stronger. At that time, it will be difficult to guarantee that these people will not join forces to attack.
Sure enough, at this time, many strong men with powerful auras began to approach, some of them had even reached the distraction stage.
Naturally, monks in the Nascent Soul Stage and Transformation Stage do not dare to take action easily. Looking at the whole practice world, there are only a few strong people in the Fusion Stage. Naturally, it is impossible for them to appear here. Even if it does, this soul-melting pill will not be able to do anything to the strong ones in the Fusion Stage. Naturally, he would not fight against someone who was considered to be strong in the Fusion Stage just for a pill, not to mention that there was the entire Martial Emperor City behind it.
Now that the demons are invading, the situation is special. To rob things from Emperor Wu's city at this time is tantamount to jeopardizing the entire spiritual world. Unless it is a last resort, no one will do such a thankless thing.
But it's different for those who are strong in the distraction stage. As long as they get the soul-melting pill, they can protect themselves from entering the integration stage in the future. Even if they risk their lives, I'm afraid someone will try it.
Especially those beings who are at the peak of the distraction stage and have been unable to break through. They are only one step away from the integration stage and only have one soul-melting pill.
In the past, if you wanted to obtain the soul-melting pill, you could only rely on luck. You could only wait for the ruins and secret realms to appear, and then obtain them from the secret realms and ruins. Now that someone can refine it, there is naturally a fight for it.
In the entire cultivation world, many people know that there is a watershed between the distraction stage and the integration stage. Like Master Qingming, there are many strong people in the distraction stage who are unable to enter the integration stage due to problems with their body and soul. This is not just because of their cultivation level. The higher the level, the harder it is to break through the realm, especially because of the particularity of the obstacles from the distraction stage to the integration stage. 33
So now that the Soul Melting Pill appears, some strong people in the distraction stage are willing to take a gamble.
A strong man from Emperor Wu City directly released his aura completely, and then said loudly: "Please give Wu Emperor City a face and retreat. If anyone dares to snatch it, even if we, Emperor Wu City, put aside the matter of the demons first, they will definitely Make it pay.”
As the words spread, it really had quite an effect. Some strong men began to retreat one after another, but many still stayed in place, and some even continued to approach the Lingxiao Sect.
Feeling these powerful men continuing to approach, those powerful men in Emperor Wu City could only look at layman Qingming.
It's not that Emperor Wu's city is not intimidating enough, it's because the temptation of the soul-melting pill is too great. What's more, everyone now knows that Emperor Wu's city is busy dealing with the demons, and even Emperor Wu's city has been lost. Naturally, some people will think that Emperor Wu's city couldn't spare any effort at all.
The key is that as long as they get the soul-melting pill, they can escape. No matter how powerful Emperor Wu's city is, there are still demons to restrain them. It is not easy to find them. But with the soul-melting pill, given time, they can Being able to break through the shackles and break through to the integration stage, even if there are really strong men from Martial Emperor City chasing after them, they can still deal with it.
But if this Qingming layman comes forward, it will be a real shock to the strong men in the integration stage. If those people insist on taking action, they may be killed by this strong man in the integration stage on the Lingxiao sect. Then they Naturally, you have to think carefully about it.
The layman Qingming naturally knew what these powerful men from Emperor Wu City meant, so he took a step forward and completely released his sword intent. The aura of the sword cultivator in the integration stage continued to attack in all directions. He didn't need to say anything. Those who were still there were All the powerful men approaching the Lingxiao Sect also stopped.
After frightening these powerful men, Qingming layman directly said loudly: "Since the soul-melting pill can be refined, there is naturally more than one. It is because of the soul-melting pill that I broke through to this integration stage. If you really need it, You can just look for the medicinal materials and then find Mr. Li to refine them. If you want to rob them, you can only ask Qing Ming in my hand first."
Not only is it a shock, but it is also reasonable. If these people continue to rob, they will be a little ignorant.
As layman Qingming said, since Li Xiuping can refine the soul-melting pill, he will not just refine it once. If someone really needs it, he can naturally collect the medicinal materials himself and then ask Li Xiuping to help refine it. As for Li Xiuping's answer If you don’t agree to help, you have to try it first.
If he tried to snatch it, he would not only have to deal with the entire Martial Emperor City, but also directly face the sword cultivator who was supposed to be in the Fusion Stage. Otherwise, he would not get the Soul Melting Pill and end up with a tragic end.
After hearing these words, the Distraction Stage powerhouses who were approaching the Lingxiao Sect stopped. Many even began to retreat, but they did not leave directly, but still paid attention to the situation on the Lingxiao Sect's side. They all want to see if there are any other opportunities.
Although these strong men did not continue to take action, they did not leave. Instead, they continued to choose to wait and see, which made layman Qingming and those strong men in Martial Emperor City feel a little heavy.
The existence of these people has always been a threat. Now they have not taken action, just because they were temporarily frightened by Emperor Wu City and the Qingming layman.
If something happens, such as the demons taking action at this time, it will be difficult to guarantee that these guys will not take advantage of the situation.
So as long as the elixir is not completed, and as long as these people do not leave directly, their existence will still be a threat.
Things are always like this. The more you worry about something, the easier it is to happen. Just like at this moment, the last thing the entire Lingxiao Sect wants to see is the demon clan, but the demon clan happened to appear at this time.
I saw huge black whirlpools appearing out of thin air around the Lingxiao Sect, and then from the whirlpools, powerful auras continued to appear, and then figures emerged one after another, and soon the entire spirit vortex was The Xiao faction was surrounded.
These people who appeared were naturally not monsters, but forces and strong men who were involved with the demons, many of whom were the strong men of the Star Observation Tower.
Nowadays, the rules of heaven and earth on the Lingxiao Sect have not been affected, so it is difficult for monsters to act on the Lingxiao Sect. If the demons want to start a battle on the Lingxiao Sect, there are only two ways, either to let these people fight with the Lingxiao Sect. Strong human beings related to the Demon Clan come forward, or they are looking for a carrier that can withstand the strong Demon Clan.
On the ground, Li Xiuping looked at the strong men who kept appearing, and his heart became a little heavy.
These people appeared at this moment, naturally not for this soul-melting pill, but wanted to take this opportunity to kill him here.
In normal times, these people would naturally not take action easily. After all, Li Xiuping has many strong people guarding him, and Li Xiuping himself is not bad at all. Star Observation Tower has learned this personally.
Now Li Xiuping is refining the soul-melting pill, because the soul-melting pill has attracted many people who covet it. Although these people have been intimidated by the Qingming layman before, they have not left, so once there is a fight, these people will definitely take action. It will naturally be much easier to kill Li Xiuping then.
It is precisely because of this that even though the Star Observation Tower suffered heavy damage before, it still had to send strong men over.
Li Xiuping must die!
Li Xiuping, who could forge the immortal sword, must die, and Li Xiuping, who could forge the immortal sword and refine the elixir, must die.
Some people died, but not completely...
