After Qi Ying finished speaking, all the Ascended Ones woke up and rushed towards the city as fast as they could, for fear that they would be late and all the caves inside would be robbed. After all, the fairy spiritual energy in the city is ten times higher than that of the surrounding mountains, which is twice as high.
Wen Lan also wanted to enter and grab a cave, but was stopped by Qi Ying. He glanced at the two of them calmly and said, "You two come with me!"
Cheng Ling nodded slightly, winked at Wen Lan, and the two of them followed Qi Ying towards the city.
Entering the city, it was very lively. A spacious street went straight ahead. There were many shops on both sides of the long street, including alchemy, talismans, wine shops, teahouses, groceries and pawn shops. There are also many monks on the street, walking through various shops from time to time.
After walking along the long street for more than half an hour, Qi Ying stopped in front of a simple building and said: "This is the mansion where you live. If you can refine the elixir within half a year, you can continue Stay here, otherwise, you can go wherever you want like other monks!"
Cheng Ling bowed slightly and said, "Thank you City Master Qi, I will do my best!"
"That's all, I have already explained the rules in the city. Remember, owning this mansion means special care for you. If you break the rules, just like other monks, you can handle it yourself!" After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and took the follower behind him. Just left.
Wen Lan sighed and said: "Brother, do you really know how to make alchemy? We only have half a year. If we cannot satisfy the city lord, we may be kicked out."
Cheng Ling smiled indifferently, Qi Ying's cultivation was in the late stage of immortality, not much different from his own, so he wouldn't be afraid of a real fight.
He knew that Wen Lan was worried that he would not be able to refine the elixir and would be driven out of the city. The immortal aura outside was not strong enough, so he was not sure of winning the arena battle in a year and a half. Besides, since you have to refine elixirs, you will definitely waste a lot of time, which will leave less time for cultivation.
"Now that you've come, let's live in peace! Brother Wenlan, the pills I gave you before should be able to elevate you to the peak of human immortality as soon as possible. It's too late today, let's go to the Immortal Art Tower tomorrow and choose a technique as soon as possible After practicing for a year and a half, I will definitely be able to win in the ring."
When Wen Lan heard this, he relaxed a little, and the two of them entered the mansion.
The mansion is very large, covering an area of more than 500 square meters. It has training rooms, lounges, and alchemy rooms, and there are more than one of them. What pleased Cheng Ling the most was that there was a backyard. There were some sparse weeds growing in the backyard, and some herbs were also planted, which must have been left by the previous owner.
Cheng Ling then said: "Brother Wen Lan, how about I own the backyard here? I can transplant some herbs."
Wen Lan agreed since he knew nothing about alchemy, let alone herbal medicine.
The two of them each chose a lounge, made an appointment to go to the Immortal Art Tower together tomorrow, and then went to rest separately.
Cheng Ling sat cross-legged in the lounge, thinking about what he had seen over the past few days. The island group here is definitely not simple. Those fairy bandits must have some ulterior motives, but they don't have any clues yet, so they don't dare to act rashly.
When you come to the fairy world, no matter where you go, you will find the same unfamiliar environment. I didn’t feel any resistance to coming to the island group. According to what the leader in black and Qi Ying said, there is a decisive battle in the arena every two years. With your own cultivation, you don't have to worry about losing even if you stay there for ten years.
These ten years are just enough time to adapt to the environment of the fairy world. The Heavenly Way in the Star Realm is slightly weak.
I am extremely powerful there, but I may not be as strong in the immortal world. First of all, we need to get in touch with the cultivation methods of the immortal world. Tomorrow's Immortal Magic Tower is a good opportunity.
Secondly, Alchemy Dao and Formation Dao must also go hand in hand. The misty sea outside the island group is obviously the location of a huge phantom formation, but with my level of formation, I can't even see it clearly. There are two possibilities. One is that the level of the formation is higher than that of the Grand Master of the Spiritual Formation. The other is that the formation and heavenly way practiced in the star world are insufficient and are different from the fairy world.
The same is true for elixirs. The elixirs that are extremely effective in the star world are greatly reduced in the fairy world. As for the talisman, it is not the most important thing at the moment. Naturally, we need to save some time. Therefore, the most important thing now is not to improve one's cultivation level, but to integrate into the immortal world's cultivation system as quickly as possible.
Although he is not afraid of the monks and formations in the island group, it is better to be able to take the initiative in his own hands than to be controlled by others.
Another point is that he must find a way to find out Yang Hongqiu's traces. The only thing he thought of was Zhang Chu. He traveled back and forth between Ascension Hall and Zhongyuan Continent many times, so he would definitely be able to get some information. It's just that you can't do it forcefully in this city, but it does take some thinking.
He was thinking in his mind, and the night passed before he knew it.
The next day, Wen Lan came over early to invite Cheng Ling to the Immortal Art Tower. Cheng Ling suddenly woke up, cast a Clear Water Jue on himself, and walked out of the room.
The Immortal Arts Tower is at the end of the long street, which is the center of the city. There is a square with a radius of several hundred feet, and the city lord's palace is also located beside it.
The two walked for less than half an hour before arriving in front of the Immortal Arts Tower. Cheng Ling raised his head and looked at it. The tower was five stories high and about thirty feet tall. The overall building was very simple. It was just an ordinary tower without any decorative ingenuity.
This tower is open to any monk, and no one is seen guarding it. Cheng Ling and Wen Lan entered it and saw hundreds of monks lingering among the bookshelves, obviously looking for the secret books they needed.
The two of them stepped forward at the same time and saw that the bookshelves were neatly stacked in rows. Each row of bookshelves had hundreds of spaces. Instead of books, there were jade plaques hanging in the spaces.
Wen Lan was confused and asked a monk who was looking for him: "My dear fellow immortal, are these jade tablets the secret book that records the magic of immortality?"
The monk glanced at the two people and saw that he could not see through their cultivation. He quickly and cautiously replied: "Yes, all the secret books in the Immortal Art Tower are hidden in these jade tablets. However, these jade tablets cannot be taken away. If there are You can rub the magic you like by yourself."
Cheng Ling interjected and asked, "Fellow Immortal, please introduce the layout of the Immortal Art Tower!"
He didn't want blind men and blind horses to experience the magic in the jade tablet one by one. That would be a waste of time. Seeing that the monk was only in the early stage of human immortality, he obviously did not dare to offend them easily, so he took the opportunity to ask.
Sure enough, although the monk was impatient, he did not dare to offend Cheng Ling. He could only reply: "The Immortal Art Tower is divided into five floors. The first floor contains the alchemy weapon array and books introducing materials and ores, as well as some islands. Rules; the second layer contains sword skills; the third layer contains martial arts; the fourth layer contains spells; and the fifth layer contains martial arts and secret techniques."
Cheng Ling was ecstatic that this Immortal Art Tower actually included sword skills. It seemed that the Immortal World and the Star World were indeed different. However, he saw that neither the monk nor Wen Lan looked surprised, and he quickly understood.
The fairy world is one level higher than the mortal world, and there are so many monks who have ascended to it. Many great mortals
There must be many monks practicing swordsmanship in Lu. How could they suppress them with all their strength like in the Star Realm?
At this time, he was completely relieved, bowed to the monk and thanked him, then turned to Wen Lan and said: "Brother Wen Lan, since I want to find a way to refine the elixir, I will first look at the elixir recipes in the immortal world here. "
Wen Lan nodded and said, "Well, you choose here first, and I'll go up to see the techniques and spells."
Cheng Ling began to select from these bookshelves. He originally planned to delve into the way of alchemy and formation first, but if there is such an opportunity, he can collect all the four auxiliary means of the alchemy weapon array as much as possible. When Zhang Hu and others ascend in the future, they will be used as Sect inheritance.
He spread his spiritual consciousness and quickly selected a jade token. The jade tablet records some medicinal materials. Although Cheng Ling has the information about all things conveyed by the golden page, there are always some nuances in the vicissitudes of life. There is no harm in knowing more about it.
The jade tablet cannot be taken away, so it must be rubbed. The rubbing method is very simple. As long as you refine a jade slip, all the contents in the jade tablet can be rubbed. He had to lament the island owner's method, which not only saved manpower, but also preserved his own heritage.
After finding the ingredients for the elixir, he started looking for the elixir recipe. Unfortunately, there are very few jade tablets recording elixir prescriptions and they are scattered. Each jade tablet only records one or two elixir prescriptions sporadically, and the grade is not high. It took several hours to select from the many jade tablets. There are no prescriptions for elixirs from human immortals to heavenly immortals, but there are no more after that.
He shook his head and smiled bitterly. It seems that the fairy world is similar to the star world. Many inheritances of the alchemy weapon array have been lost. Not to mention that there are hundreds of jade tablets in one layer. Many of them are duplicated. It is difficult to say whether four detailed inheritances can be collected. .
Sure enough, his conjecture was not wrong. The inheritance of talismans and weapon refining, like the alchemy method, were also in pieces. It was wrong that Cheng Ling had knowledge of all four of them, so he couldn't put them together at all.
As for the formation inheritance, it is even more pitiful. Only two jade tablets were found out of a hundred. One of them only recorded some introductions to the formations, while the other recorded several simple immortal formations.
Cheng Ling was greatly disappointed. He looked at his hands full of dozens of jade slips. There were plenty of them, but almost all of them were useless, with very little useful content. He had to sort them out and summarize them by himself.
"That's all, let's go to the second floor to see the swordsmanship first!"
I sighed in my heart, the pie falling from the sky is not very delicious after all, I hope the swordsmanship area can give me some surprises!
Slowly walking up to the second floor, I glanced with my consciousness and saw that the jade tablets hanging inside were much less than those on the first floor, only less than fifty.
Cheng Ling randomly selected one and inserted his spiritual consciousness into it. After a moment, a hint of surprise appeared on his face. What is recorded in it is indeed a sword technique, the grade is only slightly lower than the Ice Soul Sword Technique.
You must know that almost every swordsmanship taught by the Golden Page is at the top of the same realm. It is rare to have a slightly inferior one here!
He quickly took a rubbing of the sword technique and studied it carefully when he returned to his residence. With the harvest, Cheng Ling suddenly looked forward to the remaining jade tokens.
Unfortunately, after checking more than a dozen of them in succession, the sword skills recorded in them were very different from the previous ones. They were all ordinary items and did not arouse the slightest interest at all.
After checking like this for half an hour, and reluctantly imprinting the next sword technique, there was only the last jade tablet left in the field.
Cheng Ling's enthusiasm waned, and with a perfectionist mentality, he once again penetrated his consciousness into the last jade tablet.
