Xiao Ding and the other three people in his dormitory returned to the front mountain of Kaiyang Peak. As soon as they walked near the dormitory, they saw a group of people gathered around the door of his dormitory. At the same time, Xiaoding also heard Qin Taibao's hoarse voice after being poisoned. It seemed that he and some of his followers were teasing Su Lanlan.
Xiao Ding and the other two hurriedly walked closer, pushed through the crowd, and walked towards the middle of the crowd.
As soon as Su Lanlan heard Xiao Ding's voice, she had already turned her head to look in Xiao Ding's direction. At this time, she saw Xiao Ding, Li Tianliang and others walking into the crowd, so she ignored other people's eyes and shouted: "Xiao Ding Brother Ding, you are finally back! Those ugly monsters bullied me!" Then, she pouted and threw herself into Xiao Ding's arms, as if a child who had been wronged outside suddenly met his parents.
Xiao Ding patted Su Lanlan's shoulder lovingly and said, "Don't be afraid Lan Lan. I'm back. We don't have to be afraid of them. If they dare to bully you again, I will send them to the Discipline Hall."
In the days since he came to Tianyang Sect, Xiao Ding has somewhat understood the sect's precepts of Tianyang Sect, among which there is a rule that "you shall not bully your fellow sects by force".
Therefore, he was well aware of Qin Taibao's teasing of Su Lanlan in public. Even though Qin Taibao's cultivation was higher than his own, Xiao Ding was not afraid of him at all.
Qin Taibao and his followers were a little surprised when they saw Xiao Ding and the others suddenly returning. They did not expect that Xiao Ding and the others would come back at this time. When they heard Xiao Ding mentioning the Discipline Hall, they were a little frightened. Although Qin Taibao is a disciple of the leader Tianshu Zhenren, he does not dare to openly violate the rules of the sect.
Moreover, for Xiao Ding, based on Qin Taibao's many years of experience in bullying the weak and fearing the strong, he knew that Xiao Ding was not afraid of him. Although his cultivation level is higher than that of his opponent, within the sect, he does not dare to openly bully others.
So, in order to ease the awkward atmosphere, Qin Taibao said in the name of haha: "Haha, who am I asking? It turns out you guys are back! I don't mean anything else, it's just that I recently got a low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan. For us cultivators in the Qi training stage, taking a low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan can advance to a higher level. I saw that this junior sister was only at the second level of Qi training, and her cultivation was a bit low, so I wanted to take her to me. There, sell her my low-grade Saint Yuan Pill."
"Ah! Low-grade Saint Yuan Dan!"
"Really? Did I hear it correctly? It's a low-grade Saint Yuan Dan?"
"Senior Brother Qin actually got a low-grade Saint Yuan Dan!"
"Senior Brother Qin, can you sell me the low-grade Saint Yuan Dan?"
"Senior Brother Qin, can you get a few more of these low-grade Saint Yuan Pills?"
"..."
Everyone watching around immediately became excited when they heard Qin Taibao say that he had obtained a low-grade Saint Yuan Dan.
Regarding this Saint Yuan Dan, Xiao Ding had seen a relevant introduction in an alchemy encyclopedia called "The Secret Code of Alchemy" that he had stolen from his friend Yue Yurou.
This "Secret Book of Alchemy" is a book left by Yue Yurou's original sect, Yuqing Sect. It records the identification methods and functions of various elixirs, spiritual plants, spiritual stones, etc., and also It records some relevant knowledge about elixir furnaces, spiritual fires, etc. It can be regarded as an encyclopedia of alchemy.
According to the "Secret Book of Alchemy", Sheng Yuan Dan is a kind of elixir that can forcibly raise a level of cultivation. It is divided into four levels: low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade and divine grade. Among them, the low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan is just suitable for immortal cultivators in the Qi training period. After taking it, it will be forcibly upgraded to a higher level based on the existing state.
However, this Sheng Yuan Dan seems to be similar to the Chi Lian Yan Dan that Xiao Ding took, but in fact there are still some differences. Although the Chi Lian Yan Dan that Xiao Ding took could improve his cultivation level, it was not guaranteed to be 100% improved by one level. Sometimes, it might not be able to improve his cultivation level by one level.
However, Sheng Yuan Dan can 100% improve one level of cultivation on the original basis. However, this kind of forced improvement has a bit of a trick to encourage growth. After the improvement, the foundation will appear to be unstable, and it may take a long time to consolidate. Although the Chi Lian Yan Dan that Xiao Ding took cannot guarantee a 100% improvement in one level of cultivation, the improved cultivation level of this pill is relatively stable, and it will also have the effect of tempering the body.
Despite this, for cultivators in the Qi training period, this low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan is still a sought-after elixir. Many people are trying their best to get this low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan. Unfortunately, even the low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan is very difficult to refine. The main medicine it requires is not that difficult to find. However, it requires an alchemist with certain alchemy skills to turn it into a pill. Otherwise, if there is a slight mistake, the furnace will explode.
Because it is difficult to refine, this kind of elixir is relatively rare on the market. What's more, many heads or elders of sects do not encourage their disciples to use this kind of elixir. After all, through steady practice and practice step by step, the foundation will be more solid and more conducive to subsequent practice.
But as disciples in the Qi training period, they don’t think so. After all, if a cultivator improves his or her cultivation to a higher level, it doesn’t just mean that he or she can improve. If some cultivators are stuck at a bottleneck, they may practice for many years. , can’t even be promoted to one level. Even if there is no bottleneck, if a cultivator wants to advance to a higher level, normal cultivation will take at least one or two years.
Therefore, as soon as Qin Taibao said today that he had a low-grade Saint Yuan Dan in his hand, it immediately caused a sensation among the surrounding disciples. Many people showed envious eyes. Some people have even been asking Qin Taibao if they can get more, and they are willing to buy them no matter how many points they spend to redeem them.
However, Qin Taibao shook his head and said with a proud expression: "How can I get this low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan just by saying that I can get it? This one of mine was spent by someone in my family through finding a way. I bought it for five thousand middle-grade spiritual stones! Did you hear me clearly? Five thousand middle-grade spiritual stones! Do you have five thousand middle-grade spiritual stones?"
After hearing this, many disciples shut up. Five thousand middle-grade spiritual stones were not a small amount. Even if the disciples of the sect used the points in the jade cards to redeem them in the mission hall, five thousand middle-grade spiritual stones would be at least a small amount. It requires 500,000 points to exchange for it. Even for core disciples like Su Lanlan, the initial points in the Jade Card are only 100,000. How easy is it to earn 500,000 points?
When Qin Taibao saw everyone shut up, the proud look on his face became even more unscrupulous. He took out a jade bottle from his arms, shook it in front of everyone, and roared loudly with a hoarse voice: "This is a low-grade product." How can Sheng Yuan Dan, this kind of magical elixir, be something ordinary people like you can get just by asking? You poor ghosts can't even get five thousand middle-grade spiritual stones at a glance, so don't have any wishful thinking. Well, hurry up and take advantage of the good time to practice hard."
After saying that, he deliberately glanced at Xiao Ding, Su Lanlan, and Li Tianliang. It seemed that this was meant for Xiao Ding and the others.
After Xiao Ding heard this, his face was expressionless and indifferent. Su Lanlan's cultivation time is short, and she still doesn't know what the low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan does. Therefore, she just watched Qin Taibao's performance with doubts.
Li Tianliang knew about Sheng Yuan Dan. He knew he couldn't afford it, so he lowered his head. Deng Feng and Shan Tong had just started their careers. Their cultivation level was very low and they looked very inferior in front of their fellow disciples. Therefore, whether they knew about Sheng Yuan Dan or not, they saw Qin Taibao's smug eyes. , also quickly lowered their heads.
After Qin Taibao glanced at Xiao Ding and others, he found that only Xiao Ding looked indifferent, so he looked unhappy and took the initiative to ask Xiao Ding: "Hey! Mr. Tian, you have five thousand middle-grade spirits." Do you have any stones? Do you want to buy my low-grade Saint Yuan Dan? Hehe, I guess you can’t come up with so many spiritual stones! And even if you can come up with so many spiritual stones, I won’t sell it to you. ,Ha ha!"
After hearing Qin Taibao's provocative words, Xiao Ding curled his lips in disdain and said, "You think that low-grade Saint Yuan Dan is a good thing, but I treat it like a waste. Spending five thousand medium-grade spiritual stones to exchange for one is nothing." It’s such a useful elixir, but only a fool would do such a thing! In my opinion, this elixir is only worth a hundred low-grade spiritual stones at most!”
Although Xiao Ding meant to ridicule Qin Taibao, the main ingredients of this low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan are actually not very expensive medicines. If the cost of the alchemist is not included, the cost of the medicinal herbs alone is what Xiao Ding said. It looks similar to a hundred low-grade spiritual stones.
Qin Taibao felt even more annoyed when he saw that Xiao Ding despised his very precious things. He couldn't help shouting hoarsely: "I think you are stupid and ignorant. You don't know this low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan? You know what this Sheng Yuan Dan is?" Is it used for something? This is used to improve your cultivation. Just your third level of Qi training..., eh? When did you reach the fourth level of Qi training? Could it be that you also took the low-grade Sheng Yuan Dan?"
Xiao Ding sneered and said: "I can't afford any Sheng Yuan Dan. I am an outer disciple, how can I have so many spirit stones? Besides, even if I had it, I would not be stupid enough to be taken advantage of. Yes. In fact, I have always been at the fourth level of Qi training, but you just misjudged me."
When Qin Taibao heard this, he immediately looked at Xiao Ding up and down again questioningly, and then said doubtfully: "No way, how could I make a mistake? You were clearly at the third level of Qi training before, I can't be wrong. But why did you break through to the fourth level of Qi training in just two months?"
At this time, Su Lanlan, who was shrinking in Xiao Ding's arms, heard Qin Taibao say that Xiao Ding had now broken through another level of cultivation, and she also said happily: "Brother Xiao Ding, are you at the fourth level of Qi training now? I was just going to tell you. , I am also at the second level of Qi training now!"
Xiao Ding:......
