Seeing the tenacity of this black shield, Lu Pingchuan said: "It seems to be very good."
Quyu and the others looked at the black shield and nodded.
Qian Chao smiled and said to a few people, "I'll show you what I imagined."
After saying that, Qian Chao walked to an open space and made a move with his hand. The black shield flew in front of him and protected him from the front. Then he didn't know what Qian Chao did. A gleaming spiritual sword appeared above the black shield. Looking at the posture of the sword and shield, it looked like a fierce man taller and stronger than Lu Pingchuan was guarding Qian Chao with a shield and a sword.
But it wasn't over yet. Suddenly, Qian Chao moved his left and right hands, making two "dong dong" sounds, and two identical black shields almost landed on both sides of Qian Chao's body from the sky. The shield surface was slightly Curved, these three shields almost formed a circle, protecting Qian Chao in the center. Immediately, two more spiritual swords flashing with cold light appeared. It was like three warriors holding swords and shields with their backs to Qian Chao, protecting him in the center.
Qian Chao walked a few steps, and the three swords and shields followed his steps, following suit. Qian Chao waved his right hand and saw three black shields sinking down at the same time, and three spiritual swords slashing out and retracting in three directions at the same time. After three rays of cold light, Qian Chao began to gesture non-stop at the center of the shield. The three spiritual swords stabbed or slashed in three directions. It seemed that there were countless enemies rushing towards Qian Chao from all directions, and they kept killing them. generally.
As soon as Qian Chao's gesture changed, the three shields and three spiritual swords immediately stopped and lined up in front of him, like a wall. The three spiritual swords on the shield began to stab and slash in unison. The initial movements were uniform. Then each one became different. Some of the spiritual sword stabbed and some slashed, and some of the shields slammed forward and some stomped downwards. They were really like warriors charging into the enemy group. After a while, Qian Chao made another gesture, and the three swords and shields stopped immediately. They were still in a neat row. The three spiritual swords seemed to be lifted up by three strong arms at the same time and they were slapped on the shields with their sword faces. "Bang" After a loud noise, only a large shield was left hanging there.
"Brother Lu, punch with all your strength!" Qian Chao said.
"Haha, here it comes!" Lu Pingchuan, who had already been itching to see it, suddenly stood up, aimed at the black shield in mid-air, and punched it straight.
With a "dang" sound, the air wave from the collision of fist and shield spread the sand and dust on the ground to all sides. Lu Pingchuan stepped back and shouted "Happy!"
Yanxuan and Tang Ping had already covered their ears.
The black shield was shaken by the beating, and Qian Chao seemed to be unsteady, and immediately changed his gestures to stabilize the black shield.
"Brother Li, strike with all your strength!" Qian Chao said again.
"Here we come!" Li Jian was also attracted by Qian Chao's demonstration just now. The sword and shield demonstration just now was really like an army sergeant's drill and a soldier going into battle to kill the enemy. His blood was rushing when he saw Qian Chao's instructions and he gave it all. He no longer held back the sword. The long sword in his hand suddenly became cold and radiant. He didn't know whether it was the sword leading the person forward or the person holding the sword and stabbing forward fiercely. White flames rose above the long sword, and a white shadow struck directly. The black shield made a loud "cang" sound, and Li Jian somersaulted backwards and fell back. Looking at the spiritual sword in his hand, he was stunned. The sword just now was the same as when he broke through. Unintentionally Jian actually used it again! It seemed that Li Jian had grasped something vaguely, but he still needed to figure it out more.
The spiritual sword in his hand was intact, which made Li Jian relieved. It seemed that this sword was indeed much stronger than the previous one.
"Brother Li, is this a sword like that?" Qian Chao asked.
Li Jian nodded and said, "Exactly."
Qian Chao walked back to the stone table, and the black shield followed him.
On the black shield, Lu Pingchuan left a shallow punch mark, and Li Jian left a thin hole.
"So awesome!" Tang Ping stared at it carefully.
Yanxuan was also surprised when he saw it.
"This shield is made of patterned iron. Logically speaking, Brother Lu is very strong, so it is normal for his fist to make a small hole, but the spirit sword made of green copper can also leave a small hole on it. , this is wrong, the material of patterned iron is much stronger than green copper, it seems that we need to study it carefully when we go back." Qian Chao said after looking at the scars on the shield.
"It's not bad. He can actually withstand the punches and swords of Brother Lu and Brother Li." Yanxuan said.
"If you really take action, no matter whether it is a monster or a monk on the other side, they will attack the shield directly. This shield is used to rescue people when they are in danger." Qian Chao said, "Here we go. It still depends on personal changes."
Li Jian said: "When I first learned that Brother Qian specializes in the art of refining weapons, I was worried about how Brother Qian would deal with danger when he went out in the future. But now it seems that I was worrying too much."
Qian Chao said: "There are several foundation-building brothers in the inner hall of Jiuxuan Chengqi Hall who also specialize in the art of cultivating weapons. They have never learned the five elements of magic. When they go out, they rely on the spiritual weapons and magical weapons that they have refined. , it should be no problem for me to go out in the future.”
Yanxuan agreed after hearing this, and said: "I have been practicing the art of controlling objects for a while a few days ago, and I have some experience, but I didn't expect Brother Qian to be able to control so many spiritual weapons at the same time. I can't do it. arrive."
Tang Ping said at this time: "Okay, it's all said and done. Let me pick something wrong. Your shield is pretty good. It's much stronger than the hairpin you made last time. But it can't be made into a different shape, at least the color. It’s time to change it, it’s dark, like a turtle shell, and so ugly, wouldn’t it be better to change it to a different color?”
After everyone laughed, they sat back around the stone table.
After sitting down, Yanxuan took out four small jade bottles and distributed them to everyone. After opening them, he found three pills in each. They seemed to be Yangyuan pills that he usually took, but they looked better than those he had taken before.
"This is the Yangyuan Pill we usually use," Yanxuan said when he saw that everyone had received it, "but what we usually take is usually the lower-grade and lower-grade pills. The one here is the lower-grade and middle-grade Yangyuan Pill that I refined. Yuan Dan is better than what the master gave us."
Only then did a few people understand why the elixir looked different.
Tang Ping didn't know that Yanxuan had brought the Yangyuan Pill to everyone at first. If she had known, she would have persuaded Yanxuan to stop. She often went to play with Yanxuan and knew how Yanxuan could get the spiritual grass to refine the elixir. Therefore, she knew that these Yuan-Yuan Pills were given to everyone, so Yanxuan would be missing a piece of the spiritual grass to refine the elixir. She thought for a moment , she felt that she had the best relationship with Yanxuan, and there were some things she said that would not make Yanxuan worried, so she thought about it and said: "Among us, I am the youngest, so I just said some things." .”
Everyone didn't know what Tang Ping was going to say, so they all looked at her.
"Sister Yan, I know that whether you, the disciples of Qixia Mountain, are refining elixirs or making medicines, how do you get the spiritual herbs? You have to exchange them for the refined elixirs, which is very hard. It's like Qian Chao refining spiritual herbs. Sword, it is the same as exchanging the refined spirit sword for materials. However, if Qian Chao's spirit sword is not well refined, it can be melted and refined again. But Sister Yan, if there is something wrong with the refining process of your elixir, Then a furnace of spiritual herbs will be wasted, but there will be no second chance. You also told me that no matter how good the alchemist is, he cannot guarantee that every furnace can turn into elixirs. There will always be spirits that cannot be refined and are wasted. Damn it. Although we are on the second level of cultivation now, the elixirs given by the master every month are still enough. What we need now and what we will use in the future is your alchemy skills, Sister Yan. If your alchemy skills are better than Be smarter. We will all benefit from it in the future. We will just accept the elixirs this time. However, in the future, your elixirs should be replaced with more spiritual herbs to make elixirs. We will be eagerly waiting for you after the third level. Give us the elixir."
Lu Pingchuan said, "Well, Sister Tang is right. I think I will go by what she said. My master also said that the higher the level of cultivation in the future, the more pills will be used."
Li Jian and Qian Chao both nodded in agreement after hearing this.
After hearing this, Yanxuan looked at everyone and then at Tang Ping. Knowing that these people had been together for so long, they were not hypocrites, so he nodded and said with a smile: "That's fine. Before we reach the third floor, all my elixirs will be gone." I'm going to exchange it for the spiritual grass, and try to improve my alchemy skills a little more, and I'll make alchemy for everyone when I reach the third floor."
Everyone nodded, and Qian Chao took out something from his storage bag, which was like an exquisite and compact incense burner with a lid, and the animal head on the lid was lifelike. Qian Chao handed it to Yanxuan.
"Sister Yan, this is a pill furnace that I tried to refine. It is made according to what you mentioned last time. You can try it. I will go to Qixia Mountain again in a few days. When the pill If there is anything wrong with the furnace, tell me and I will make corrections."
"Ah! It was refined so quickly," Yanxuan said in surprise, "I will give it a try when I get back. I only recently discovered that those senior brothers did bring their own alchemy furnaces with them when they came to Nanyu Hall. of."
Qian Chao said: "This is not the best. Some of the materials are not available in Jiuxuan's small market. It is said that they can be found outside the sect. However, there are not many refined in this Dan Furnace Crafting Hall, and they are rarely used. So there is no one to sell it, so we have to look for it in the future.”
"What materials don't you Jiuxuan have?" Tang Ping asked.
"A type of soil is called spirit worm mud, and it also requires the blood of several monster beasts. Speaking of which, the refining of this alchemy furnace is not popular. After all, there are not as many people buying it as the spirit sword, so there are not many I also made it according to the method in the book, so I asked Sister Yan to try it and tell me whether it works or not."
Li Jian thought of the honey he had collected in the past few days, so he took it out and distributed it to everyone. Of course, Lu Pingchuan's bamboo tube was still the largest.
"The honey this time is a little different." Li Jian briefly told the story of the vicious bee swarm invading his bamboo forest and fighting with the wild bees in his bamboo forest. "Then the wild bees in my bamboo forest were different, um , have become bigger and more powerful. I have eaten this honey, and it feels very different from before."
Lu Pingchuan first dipped a finger in it and put it into his mouth, then he couldn't help but praise: "It's delicious, it's delicious, there seems to be some spiritual energy in it."
After hearing this, Yanxuan dipped his finger into it and tasted it, and said in surprise: "It's actually of high quality. It's really different from the last time. It tastes better to me than the honey used by Baicaoyuan to make medicines."
"Is it top quality?" Tang Ping tasted it after hearing this, "Well, it's true. I have a recipe to make wine using this honey. If it works, Brother Li, I will come back to get some more."
"No problem." Li Jian said.
Later, several people talked for a while about the situation when they broke through the cultivation level. After talking about it, they discovered that the five people broke through almost at the same time on the same day, which made several people very curious.
"Maybe the five of us can break through the third level of Qi Refining at the same time!" Tang Ping said.
"Well, it's very possible," Lu Pingchuan said, "Hey, it doesn't matter so much, it's noon, we should have something to eat."
As he spoke, Lu Pingchuan took out the delicacies he had prepared earlier from the storage bag one by one and placed them all over the stone table. Tang Ping also took out the brewed spiritual wine and distributed it to everyone, and also released Xiaobai, who had long been bored.
After eating the delicious food, a few of them went to the Crane Tower for a walk.
Today, Yanxuan saw the price of elixir for the first time at the market in Helou. There were monks from Qixia Mountain selling various elixirs there. Although the elixirs on display did not allow buyers to taste the elixirs, the prices made Yanxuan speechless. A lower-grade Yangyuan Pill costs one spiritual stone, while a lower-middle-grade Yangyuan Pill costs three spiritual stones. There, Yanxuan also saw a lower-grade, high-grade Yangyuan Pill for the first time. , not many, the seller only has four, each priced at ten spiritual stones.
"Oh my God! Who can afford this? It's too expensive!" Yanxuan said. She was also surprised. She spoke a little louder and even gave the seller a look.
"Whatever is sold will be bought. Sister Yan, in order to establish the foundation as soon as possible, those senior brothers and sisters who are in the advanced level of Qi refining will naturally look for this good-quality elixir to take."
Yanxuan nodded after hearing this. Not only Yanxuan, but also Qian Chao and others were also shocked by the price of the elixir. Although Qian Chao's Spirit Sword can be sold at a high price, it can be used for a long time after being bought, and the elixir will be gone in one fell swoop!
Tang Ping was really right. While several people were still discussing, a monk who was obviously a high-level Qi refining monk actually came. When he saw the elixir, he stopped and started talking to the seller, and they had a final bargaining session. , that person used twenty-eight spiritual stones to buy the four low-grade and high-grade Yangyuan Pills.
"Did you see," Tang Ping said to Yanxuan, "Sister Yan, we will rely on you in the future. From now on, I will have to eat the elixir of one of the ten spiritual stones to satisfy my hunger. There is also the Zhuyan elixir. I heard that it is good There is a Bailing Stone on the good Beauty Pill, Sister Yan..."
When Tang Ping said this, she grabbed one of Yanxuan's arms with both hands and swung it around. Yanxuan was made to laugh and cry. He stretched out his hand to scratch Tang Ping's nose and said angrily: "Eat, eat, eat, you greedy cat." , that will have to happen later, why don’t you eat me first.”
Because he was refining spiritual swords for others, Qian Chao now almost had the most spiritual stones among the five people, so he also made a trip and invited a few friends to Helou to taste Helou's famous spiritual tea on the second floor. , and also tasted the refreshments made with various spiritual fruits there.
"Well," Tang Ping nodded as she ate a small snack, "It tastes really good. Hey, Mr. Qian, why are you so generous all of a sudden!"
"Don't you know? You have heard about my story. Later, many people came to me to refine spiritual swords, and I earned some spiritual stones."
"Well, it seems that you are the richest among us. Can we get things from the front for a while and you can just follow behind and pay the bill?"
"Okay, no problem."
"A Ping...!"
"Hmph, I'll let you go this time, but I'll have one more snack like this... no, two!"
