Another day of competition was over. After the day ended, the five people did not return to their residences individually. Instead, they came to Qian Chao's residence at his suggestion.
It was already sunset, and the five people gathered together at this time were not for practicing. Qian Chao and a few friends said that they had something to show everyone.
In Qian Chao's place, the important things are naturally on the ground floor of his small building, walking down the steps. Several friends have been here countless times. After coming down, there is a small and neat hall. On weekdays, five It was in this hall when I personally practiced the "Five Elements Impregnating Spirit Formation". There is a fire eye in the cave on the left hand side of the hall, which is where Qian Chao refines important spiritual weapons and those that he does not want others to see. On the right side of the hall is the place where Qian Chao showed his formation to four friends for the first time. It was the day when five people broke through the Xiaowu Pass. There, the four partners saw Qian Chao use his formation in a short time. The whole process of allowing a spiritual grass seed to take root, sprout, bloom and bear fruit within a short period of time. After that, they rarely entered this cave again, and this time Qian Chao wanted his four companions to see the cave on the right. within.
"Come." Qian Chao said and opened the door of the cave on the right.
"Wow..." Before they entered, the four friends standing at the door were stunned by the scene inside, and Tang Ping couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
The cave is full of spiritual energy and infinite vitality.
I don’t know when the cave was expanded a lot by the money tide. The wide cavern winds down along the cave wall, but it is not dark inside. There are many luminous gems embedded in the cave walls and ceiling. Well, most of them are It seems that all the things they got when they opened the ruins were used here by Qian Chao, because they made the cave look soft and bright. Of course, the cave full of gems was not enough to surprise the four people. What surprised them was that there were many green spiritual grasses in the cave winding downwards, just like the spiritual grasses in Qixia Mountain. It is like a garden, and almost every plant is hanging in the air. Under each spiritual grass, there are five tea cups arranged in a circle, and each tea cup is filled with cinnabar. , obscure runes, and each tea cup also contains one or several spiritual stones of varying sizes. The runes in every five tea cups form a formation. In the formation Under the influence of this, the spiritual stones in the tea cup shimmered and were slowly consumed.
At a glance, all you can see is greenery. This is underground, so it should be a very quiet place, but in this cave, the five people can still hear a sound while watching all this in surprise. The subtle "rustling" sound is like spring eating leaves, but the four partners all know that this subtle "rustling" sound is caused by the spiritual grass branching out and leafing out.
Yanxuan was the first to be shocked. She opened a medicine garden in her master's cave and planted many rare spiritual herbs. They grew very well, but her medicine garden was nothing compared to what she saw in front of her. The most important thing about seeing the great witch is that Yanxuan is good at spiritual grass. He recognized most of the spiritual grass varieties at a glance. They are all rare things. He couldn't help but flush with excitement.
"Wow, Mr. Qian, when did you expand this place so much? And get so many spiritual herbs?" Tang Ping asked.
"There is still something inside. It took me two months to decorate this cave bit by bit. There is a cave hall just around the corner. The real valuable spiritual grass is underneath." Qian Chao said with a smile.
All the way down, he carefully walked through the clumps of spiritual grass. Yanxuan's eyes showed a rare look of reluctance. He couldn't help but reach out and touch the green leaves. He waited for the five people to arrive at Qian Chao's place. When the cave hall was mentioned, Yanxuan seemed even more excited, and walked in as if he was a bit stupid without waiting for Qian Chao's introduction.
"This is... Qizi Baizhi, God... she looks so good!"
"This... is the Crimson Immortal Grass, and the one over there is also..."
"The curly vine flower... is so thick and has so many flowers. It's really rare!"
"I also planted a few stamen grasses in my master's cave. The growth is far worse than Brother Qian's here!"
Yanxuan was as excited as if he had entered a treasure mountain, staring back and forth at the spiritual herbs that were full of energy and vitality.
Qian Chao later asked Yanxuan for one of the curly vine flowers, and then used his own formation to produce it. Now it has grown in this cave hall as thick as the mouth of a bowl, and the small flowers are decorated with brown flowers. The cracked vines are really beautiful.
Among the five people, Li Jian and Lu Pingchuan were only surprised to see these Tang Ping, and only Yanxuan was the most excited. She understood that any one of the spiritual herbs in Qian Chao's cave would be a huge surprise among the Qi Refining disciples. Good stuff that makes people break their heads.
Seven-leaf Angelica dahurica, Curly Vine flower, Crimson grass, Coriander grass, Youdilian, these are the five main herbs for refining the "Foundation Building Pill". With these five kinds of spiritual herbs, Yanxuan can try to start refining " Foundation Building Pill".
"Then all we need now is Youdilian, right?" Yanxuan looked at Qian Chao with a flushed face and asked.
"Sister Yan, look here."
Qian Chao smiled and said, leading a few people to a corner of the cave hall, where there were several small wide water jars. Along the water jar were five tea cups used by Qian Chao to arrange formations. In the water jar The clear water is covered with round lotus leaves the size of small saucers. What sticks out of the water are pink and white lotus flowers in full bloom.
"Youdilian, Buyan'ao collected it a while ago. There was only one seed, but now there are so many."
Yanxuan suppressed the pounding heartbeat in his chest and squatted down gently, gently smelling the fragrance emitted by the Youdi Lotus. He wanted to reach out and touch it, but he retracted his hand because he was worried that he would break the pink and white lotus.
Tang Ping understood the meaning. The spiritual herbs in this cave hall were all prepared for refining the "Foundation Building Pill". She said:
"That means Sister Yan can start refining the foundation-building pill, right?"
"Not bad," Qian Chao said, and then he took out a few wooden boxes from his body and opened them. They were as full of spiritual grass seeds as grains of rice. "These are all the seeds of these spiritual grasses. Well, why don't you just leave them with me?" Here, after Sister Yan takes away the spiritual grass here, I will use these seeds to plant another batch of spiritual grass."
Yanxuan was naturally looking forward to refining the Foundation Establishment Pill with her own hands, but now that the materials were all available, she hesitated.
"These spiritual herbs are too precious. I'm really worried that if... I fail to refine them, it would be a pity."
"Sister Yan, that's not what you said," Tang Ping encouraged. "People say that the reason why the famous doctors in the world are so good are not all because they practice on patients. The same is true for alchemy. The more famous the alchemy is, the better it is." Master, isn’t it the piles of valuable spiritual herbs that have been used to achieve his alchemy skills? Isn’t the reason why Mr. Qian has planted so many spiritual herbs here just for you to practice with? Just go and refine them. , don’t think about anything else, if your alchemy skills are superb, we will benefit a lot, ha!”
This is indeed the truth, but Yanxuan looked at the countless precious spiritual grasses here. Under each plant were at least five spiritual stones, and some had ten or more. She said worriedly:
"Well, that's what I said, but Brother Qian planted so many spiritual grasses using the formation method. Isn't it a lot of spiritual stones?"
Qian Chao smiled and said:
"Sister Yan, you don't need to worry about it. Well, the spiritual grass here does consume a lot of spiritual stones, but I refine the spiritual weapon and ask Buyan Yao to sell it, and the income is enough to maintain it. Haha, and also, Tang Yatou and the other party a few days ago Brother Lu came on stage to compete. I placed heavy bets both times, and I actually won a lot. The spiritual stones I received are enough to plant so many spiritual grasses many times, so there is no need to worry about the spiritual stones. Sister Yan just turns on the furnace. Just make elixirs."
For the qi refining disciples who practice alchemy in Qixia Mountain, being able to personally refine the foundation-building elixir is their ultimate goal in the qi-refining stage, which means that they can hope to build the foundation entirely by themselves, and they can also He gained great prestige from this. Yanxuan is not interested in fame, but every successful refining of the elixir gives her a very satisfying sense of accomplishment. She also hopes that her alchemy skills can reach the point where she can refine the "Foundation Building Pill" That level, for Yanxuan, is both a challenge and an achievement that is difficult to achieve but also aspirational. Being able to achieve that level will be Yanxuan's affirmation and recognition of himself.
In the eyes of the many Qi Refining disciples in Qixia Mountain, it is absolutely unimaginable that there are so many spiritual herbs of sufficient age and good quality in front of them. Using these spiritual herbs to try to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill that Yanxuan has never refined before, even if Those disciples who become disciples of alchemy masters, such as the "Mei Min Shuangshu" from Qixia Mountain, cannot have such an opportunity. It is too luxurious, and their master cannot provide them with this!
Qian Chao's idea is very simple. Even if he uses spiritual grass to pile up, he must make Yanxuan a master of alchemy. In the future, having a master alchemist among the five people will naturally be beneficial to everyone. Of course, Qian Chao's idea, The other four companions knew it even better, so when Lu Pingchuan saw that Yanxuan was still hesitant, he said calmly:,
"Don't be afraid, sister Yan. How can a cook cook a table of good food from the very beginning? It doesn't always taste good at first, but it tastes good later. Don't worry about the spiritual stone. At worst, we can go out more often." That’s it.”
Li Jian also said:
"Brother Lu is right. Miss Yan only cares about refining elixirs. Diligence and practice make perfect. We can work together to solve other things."
"Okay," Yanxuan made up his mind, "I will take these spiritual herbs back and strive to refine the Foundation Building Pill as soon as possible."
…
After gathering all the spiritual herbs, the five of them went back up to drink tea and talk in Qian Chao's small building.
The next topic is naturally related to Jing Jie.
Although one thing was not stated explicitly, at least Qian Chao and Tang Ping had the same intention in their hearts. The five of them were pushed to become the top Qi Refining disciples in the Wuling Sect. Only by building the foundation can these five people be transformed. The secondary responsibility is given to others. Since you can't turn it off, you can only do it well. The five of them also ordered the elite disciples in the sect when they defeated Wen Liang. It was not a complete success. Only some people listened to them. This order was only accomplished under the leadership of many senior brothers and sisters who were good friends with the five of them. Although the elite disciples in the sect later realized the strength of the five of them, so far the five of them have only done this. Just one thing.
It was not to establish authority, but after the five people learned about Jing Jie's evil deeds from Feng You, they hated this guy deeply. In addition, the elders of the council also wanted to punish those big dudes, so this time they dealt with Jing Jie. Regarding Jing Jie, and of course Tian Du and Jin Zhang, the five of them had the same idea, which was to completely drive Jing Jie out of the Five Spirits Sect through this matter and prevent him from continuing to harm the sect.
Although Qian Chao and Tang Ping did not say it clearly, they knew that if they could defeat Jing Jie this time, it would be of great benefit to the five people's prestige in the sect in the future, at least before the foundation was established. Let the unruly members of the sect bow to the five of them and obey orders obediently.
Tang Ping said:
"I didn't expect that Jing Jie would send people in at first. I originally just thought that through this incident, I could frighten Jin Zhang, suppress Tian Du, and at the same time fulfill my promise to Tian Shuangyou. I could implicate Jing Jie, but it would have no impact on him in the end. It’s not too deep. Well, the initial plan was to let Jin Zhang’s people and Tian Du’s people fight each other. Finally, we would come out to clean up the mess. But later, Jing Jie was worried because of our performance on the stage. In the end, we also sent people to get involved, so it’s good that since he stretched his hand directly in, even if he can’t cut him off, he won’t have a chance to clean them up. If we change our strategy, we can still catch them all in one fell swoop.”
Qian Chao said:
"Brother Li and I went to Ciruixuan Town the day before yesterday and met Zuo You and Liu Feng. There were also two senior brothers Xu Sheng and Hang Zhuo at that time. We learned from the two senior brothers that we knew what we were going to deal with this time. Afterwards, the elders in the sect are a little worried about whether we can succeed. Girl Tang, you have to go to Senior Tang's place again. At least let the foundation-building brothers in the sect who are secretly behind the matter wait for us to take action. If we really don't The enemy will be taken over by them again. Although Senior Brother Xu and Senior Brother Hang agreed, Senior Tang still wants you to talk to him a few more times."
"Okay, it just so happens that I still have some accounts that I haven't settled with my sixth grandfather. I'll go find him later." Tang Ping said.
Li Jian said:
"The strategy before this change required the use of people within the sect. We can indeed mobilize those people now, but it is still unknown how many of them may be Jing Jie's eyes and ears. Well, we must be more careful in employing people in the future. careful."
Qian Chao said:
"Yes, not many people know what happened this time. They are all people we can trust. In my opinion, the rest of the people should also be used. But the news must not be leaked before. Only when that day comes, everyone will leave the sect. Only then can we tell the truth. Well, by then it would be too late if anyone really wanted to send news to Jing Jie."
Tang Ping said:
"How about we still rely on the senior brothers and sisters we trust this time, such as Luo Ying and the other five, Ma Hu, and the two senior sisters Fang Yang, Fang Han, Senior Brother Gu Yuan, and Senior Sister Cui Yin. Let them gather their own people and divide them into several The team goes out quietly so that no one is noticed. Wait until the people go out before explaining what they are going to do. That way there are not many people in each team. With fewer people, it will be easier to see who has different thoughts, how about that?"
Li Jian said:
"Well, Miss Tang's idea is good."
Yanxuan looked at Qian Chao and asked:
"So, Brother Qian, how are your arrangements outside the sect going?"
Qian Chao smiled and said:
"It's almost done. I've been out with Brother Li these past few days and nights. The layout this time covers a larger area and is more troublesome, so it took a little longer, but it will definitely be done before the Cheng Guan En Trial is over. "
Lu Pingchuan said:
"It's true, Old Man Tang, if you have to keep alive, I'd say leaving a few alive is enough."
Tang Ping said:
"This time Jing Jie has involved many aristocratic families under the jurisdiction of our Wuling Sect. It will be difficult to deal with their people if they are dead. It is best if they are alive. Moreover, I have also read the news brought back by Zuo You and Liu Feng. Yes, indeed, if we deal with it, even if we add the elite disciples in the sect, the damage will definitely be considerable if we really fight. We should just follow the arrangements of Mr. Qian. Alas, there are many aristocratic families. This is another big event. !”
Yanxuan said:
"Fortunately, according to Brother Qian's method, no one will die this time, which is always a good thing."
