Two years passed quickly, and there was a secret room in Qingtang Courtyard.
Shen Long sat cross-legged on a blue futon, staring at the Red Crow Cauldron not far away, with some elixirs placed beside him.
Shen Long can now refine the middle-grade elixir and is refining Huang Xingdan.
As his level of alchemy improved, he sold the refined elixirs at a price a little lower than the market price. Many monks bought elixirs from him, and he became famous in the city.
Shen Long and Yu Susu purchased the recipe for Huang Xingdan. Currently, Heyuan Dan and Huang Xingdan can be refined, as well as more than a dozen first-level elixirs.
After a while, the strong medicinal fragrance floated out from the red crow cauldron.
Shen Long shook his sleeves and the flames dissipated. He stood up and walked to the Red Crow Cauldron.
He opened the lid of the cauldron and found ten yellow pills inside. They were bright in color and full of grains. Each pill had six pill patterns on its surface.
Shen Long nodded with satisfaction and put the ten yellow apricot pills into a blue porcelain bottle.
A yellow spirit beast bag on his waist shook a little, and when he patted the spirit beast bag, the iron-tailed scorpion flew out and landed on the ground.
The size of the iron-tailed scorpion is twice as large as before, and its tail spines are black and shiny, and you can tell at a glance that they are highly poisonous.
"You have advanced to the second level, not bad."
Shen Long looked happy. After arriving at Xuanyinfang City, he fed the iron-tailed scorpion many spiritual pills, elixirs and demon pills from the second-level demon scorpion. It would be useless if it didn't advance to the second level.
The iron-tailed scorpion neighed happily, seeming to announce the good news to Shen Long.
Shen Long took out two hundred-year-old ink mustard grass and fed it to the iron-tailed scorpion.
The iron-tailed scorpion ate two ink mustard plants and made a sharp hissing sound.
Shen Long felt a sharp pain coming from the sea of consciousness, and was filled with surprises.
After the Iron-tailed Scorpion advanced to the second level, he mastered the divine attack, which was really beyond his expectation.
The advancement direction of the mutated spirit insect is uncontrollable. No one knows what magical powers the mutated spirit insect will master when it reaches a greater realm.
Shen Long has checked the experience of many predecessors of the Yuling Sect in cultivating mutant spirit scorpions. Their spirit scorpions can also mutate at the first level. The purity of the bloodline essence is only one. Only when the mutant spirit scorpions advance to the second level can the purity of the bloodline essence be possible. If it reaches two, it will be more toxic at best.
After the iron-tailed scorpion mutated, the purity of the blood essence reached the second level. After advancing to the second level, he mastered the spiritual attack, which really gave Shen Long a surprise.
He took out the demon measuring mirror to examine the Iron Tail Scorpion and found that the purity of the bloodline essence was still 2. It seems that it is not easy to improve the purity of the bloodline essence. From this, we can also see the potential of the Golden Winged Wind Peng.
The iron-tailed scorpion made a sharp hissing sound, and its tail stinger swayed left and right.
"I actually mastered the spiritual attack. Not bad. I'll give you two more hundred-year-old ink mustard grass."
Shen Long praised and took out two hundred-year-old ink mustard grass and fed it to the iron-tailed scorpion.
As far as he knew, there were many spiritual insects who mastered spiritual attacks, but usually they had to advance to the third level before they could master spiritual attacks.
When ordinary spirit beasts, spirit insects, and birds advance to the greater realm, the magical powers they master remain unchanged, just like the skills of immortal cultivators. Whatever skills they practice, they will master the magical powers at which level they have reached.
Mutated spiritual beasts, spiritual insects, and birds have been promoted to great realms, and the magical powers they master are unknown. They may be great magical powers, or they may be useless magical powers.
Shen Long took out the Yuling Pagoda, entered the Yuling Pagoda, and appeared on the first floor.
More than two thousand gold-eating ants flew over. The queen was in the late first-order, there were more than a hundred gold-eating ants in the mid-first order, and the rest were all in the early first-order.
After Shen Long was able to refine the middle-grade elixir, his income increased significantly. He purchased a large amount of metal ore to feed the gold-eating ants, and the number of gold-eating ants increased several times.
With a pinch of Shen Long's magic formula, more than two thousand gold-eating ants suddenly condensed into a golden long sword. With a change of his magic formula, the golden long knife turned into a golden lotus, and then turned into a golden net bag. .
He took out dozens of pieces of golden ore and threw them on the ground. More than two thousand gold-eating ants swarmed up, climbed on top of the golden ore, and began to bite. The queen was not interested.
Shen Long took out a fist-sized black marrow stone, which is a second-level weapon refining material and can be used to refine high-grade magic weapons.
The gold-eating ant queen flew over, and Shen Long threw the ink marrow stone on the ground for it to enjoy.
It didn't take long for the gold-eating queen to eat the black pith stone.
When Shen Long reached the second floor, an astonishing high temperature hit his face.
He whistled, and the fire rock beast rushed over, and it also advanced to the second level.
The fire spirit energy on the second floor of the Royal Spirit Pagoda is abundant, and the Fire Rock Beast likes to stay here. Shen Long feeds it fire-attribute elixirs and second-level fire-attribute monster demon pills every once in a while, and the Fire Rock Beast enters. Level two is a matter of course.
The fire rock beast advanced to the second level and mastered the fire shield technique, which can condense a red light curtain on the body surface. This magical power is a defensive magical power.
Shen Long took out two red ginseng plants and fed them to the Fire Rock Beast.
He came to the spiritual field and gave rain to the elixir and peach trees.
He has now reclaimed 300 acres of spiritual land and planted a large number of fire-attribute elixirs and spiritual fruit trees. There will be no profit in a short period of time, and the investment is not large. It only needs raining every once in a while.
This is a hugely profitable thing, and Shen Long will naturally not dislike it.
After using the rain, Shen Long slapped a cyan spirit beast bag on his waist, and the golden-winged windpeng flew out. Its size was more than twice as big as before, and it was currently in the middle of the first order.
The golden-winged wind peng spread its wings, soared into the sky, and flew high into the sky at a very fast speed.
With the pinch of Shen Long's magic formula, strong winds blew up, and a five-foot-tall blue tornado appeared. Upon closer inspection, there were hundreds of giant wind blades inside the green tornado, quickly passing through the void, and there was a harsh sound of breaking through the air.
The second level spell is like a storm!
Shen Long's natal spiritual bird is the Golden-winged Wind Peng. He spends two hours every day practicing this spell and has successfully cultivated it to the Great Perfection. If this were spread, it would definitely surprise people.
The difficulty of practicing second-level spells is much higher than that of first-level spells. It takes many foundation-building monks more than ten years to practice a second-level spell to perfection. This is still the five element spells, wind spells, thunder spells, and ice spells. Spells take more time.
Many Yuling Sect monks choose spirit birds as their natal spirit birds. They want to practice a second-level wind spell to perfection, which will take ten years at the fastest. Shen Long spends two hours every day practicing Fengjuanyun, and two In the past year, he has cultivated Feng Zhuan Can Yun to the Great Perfection.
The fact that Shen Long was able to cultivate Fengjuan Canyun to the Great Perfection so quickly had a lot to do with the purity of the blood essence of the Golden-winged Fengpeng. This was not Shen Long's guess, but the experience of the Yuling Sect monks in cultivating their natal spiritual birds.
The higher the purity of the blood essence of the natal spiritual beast, the greater the feedback to the immortal cultivator. This is one of the reasons why the majority of spiritual masters want to improve the purity of the blood essence of the natal spiritual beast.
Shen Long thought, and the green tornado collapsed.
The golden-winged Fengpeng descended from the sky and landed in front of Shen Long. It made a sharp bird call and kept flapping its wings. There were strong winds and billowing smoke.
Shen Long took out two spirit feeding pills and fed them to Golden Winged Fengpeng.
Its blood essence is of higher purity and requires more resources to cultivate immortality.
Shen Long took out ten more twenty-year-old green wind grasses and fed them to the golden-winged wind peng.
After eating and drinking enough, the Golden-winged Fengpeng flapped its wings lightly and flew high into the sky.
A quarter of an hour later, Shen Long put it back into the spirit beast bag and exited the Spirit Control Tower.
The iron-tailed scorpion lay motionless in the corner of the stone room.
Shen Long walked out of Qingtang Courtyard and came to the square where casual cultivators set up stalls. He took out a piece of coarse cloth and spread it on the ground. He took out some porcelain bottles and placed them on the ground.
The porcelain bottles contain all the elixirs he refined, both first and second level.
You can buy it with spiritual stones, or you can exchange it for things, such as ores, spiritual trees, elixirs, elixirs, wine recipes, etc.
Shen Long took out a thick blue book with the three characters "Qiancao Jing" written on the cover. This is a classic that introduces spiritual plants.
"Senior Shen, can I use these weapon refining materials to exchange for a bottle of Qi Nourishing Pill!"
A pleasant female voice sounded.
Shen Long looked up and saw Liu Yuruo standing in front of him.
Liu Yuruo didn't know Shen Long's true identity and exchanged materials with Shen Long for first-level elixirs many times.
She took out more than a dozen pieces of ore with a look of anticipation on her face.
Shen Long nodded and put away the ores.
He picked up a cyan porcelain bottle and handed it to Liu Yuruo. Liu Yuruo thanked her profusely, accepted the cyan porcelain bottle, opened the cork, and poured out a few Qi-nourishing pills. They were bright in color and full of grains.
Liu Yuruo looked happy, put the Qi Nourishing Pill back into the blue porcelain bottle, and left here.
Shen Long continued to read the Qiancao Jing. From time to time, Qi Refining monks came over and exchanged elixirs or ore spirit wood with him for first-level elixirs. As long as the items were good, Shen Long agreed to the exchange.
The sky gradually darkened, and Shen Long took out two moonstones. The soft white light from the moonstone illuminated the entire stall.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, you are selling elixirs again."
A cheerful male voice sounded.
Shen Long looked up and saw a burly man in black shirt standing in front of him with a fleshy face. The man in black robe exuded a strong evil spirit and his clothes were stained with some brown blood.
"Fellow Daoist Ye, long time no see, where is Fellow Daoist Lin!"
Shen Long smiled and greeted.
The big man in black shirt is named Ye Hong. He has the cultivation level of the middle stage of foundation building. He is the leader of a monster hunting team. Lin Guang, Su Nan and Yu Susu all go out to hunt monsters with Ye Hong.
Their demon hunting team has seven people, six in the early stage of foundation building and one in the middle stage of foundation building.
Shen Long often buys demon pills for second-level monsters from them and sells Huang Xing Pill and He Yuan Pill to them.
"We encountered a little trouble. Fellow Daoist Lin was injured and went back to heal. Fellow Daoist Shen, I have a second-level elixir recipe. Are you interested?"
Ye Hong took out a blue jade slip and handed it to Shen Long.
Shen Long took the jade slip and scanned it with his consciousness.
"Green Dew Pill! Antidote Pill."
Shen Long nodded and asked, "Fellow Daoist Ye, please tell me a price!"
"I would like four bottles of Huang Xing Dan, how about it?"
Ye Hong said.
One yellow apricot pill on the market costs 50 spiritual stones, a bottle of ten contains 500 spiritual stones, and four bottles costs 2,000 spiritual stones.
This price is already very cheap, but if the prescription can be sold for more, Ye Hong will not suffer a loss.
Shen Long thought for a moment and agreed.
After knowing each other for so long, Ye Hong sold him an elixir for the first time. It was probably the elixir he had just obtained. Shen Long thought of the little trouble Ye Hong mentioned and guessed that Ye Hong and others should be fighting with other foundation-building monks to destroy them. Get the other party and get the prescription.
Ye Hong looked happy, took away the four yellow porcelain bottles, chatted for a few words, and left.
A gust of fragrant wind drifted by, and a beautiful woman in her early thirties in a green dress came to Shen Long.
The beautiful woman in a green skirt has gorgeous features and snow-white skin. She has a spirit animal bag and a body bag tied around her waist.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, there will be a party later, and the Yin Corpse Sect's foundation-building monks will also attend. Are you interested?"
The beautiful woman in a green skirt asked enthusiastically.
Qin Yuwei, she was born in the Qin family, a cultivating family affiliated with the Yin Corpse Sect.
Shen Long has met many foundation-building cultivators in the past two years, both casual cultivators and family cultivators.
"What time! So sudden!"
Shen Long said in surprise.
"Half a quarter of an hour later, I also received an impromptu invitation."
Qin Yuwei said.
"Anyway, there's nothing to do. Then I'll follow Mrs. Qin."
Shen Long said politely, put away the stall, and followed Qin Yuwei to a secluded blue-tiled courtyard.
Qin Yuwei sent a transmission note and waited quietly.
"Mrs. Qin, Fellow Daoist Shen, you have also received the invitation."
A manly voice sounded.
Shen Long turned around and saw a paunchy man in a red shirt walking over. The man in the red shirt was white and fat, and the fat on his face squeezed his eyes into slits.
"Fellow Daoist Fang, you are here too."
Qin Yuwei greeted with a smile.
The man in red shirt is called Fang Wei, a second-level talisman maker. He has been in Xuanyinfang City for more than 20 years.
"I heard that Mrs. Sun of the Yin Corpse Sect was holding a party, so I came over."
Fang Wei explained.
Shen Long smiled slightly and greeted Fang Wei.
The courtyard door opened, and a young man in a red shirt came out.
"Hey, it's you, Fellow Daoist Shen."
The young man in red shirt let out a light sigh when he saw Shen Long.
Shen Long was a little surprised when he saw the young man in red shirt. When he was resting in an ancient temple, he met two foundation-building monks of the Yin Corpse Sect. The young man in red shirt was Chen Feng.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, do you know each other?"
Qin Yuwei said doubtfully that she had never heard Shen Long mention this matter.
"It's a long story. Let the three fellow Taoists come in and talk!"
Chen Feng invited them in. There was a three-story blue attic and a blue stone pavilion in the courtyard.
Three men and one woman were sitting in the blue stone pavilion, drinking tea and chatting. Sun Xin was also inside.
"Senior Sister Sun, look who's here, Fellow Daoist Shen."
Chen Feng said with a smile.
Sun Xin's eyes fell on Shen Long and said with a smile: "What a coincidence! Fellow Daoist Shen, it has been more than four years since we said goodbye that day."
"Long time no see, Mrs. Sun."
Shen Long said hello.
"Mrs. Sun and fellow Daoist Shen know each other?"
An old man in a golden shirt of medium height said curiously.
Liu Yushan, he was born into the Sun family, which is a cultivating family affiliated with the Yin Corpse Sect.
Sun Xin briefly told what happened, and the monks suddenly realized.
Liu Yushan stroked his beard gently and said, "I see. I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Shen would have known Mrs. Sun and Daoyou Chen for a long time. If Fellow Daoist Shen had mentioned this earlier, he would have been able to reunite with Madam Shen earlier."
"This matter is not a big deal. There is nothing to mention. We can meet again if we are destined."
Shen Long said nonchalantly.
"Meeting is fate. It is not easy to meet again. Fellow Daoist Shen, I would like to offer you a cup of tea instead of wine."
Sun Xin said politely, picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Shen Long also picked up the tea cup and drank all the tea in the cup.
The eight people started chatting, drinking tea and discussing Taoism.
"By the way, disciples from the Hundred Ghost Sect have been appearing frequently during this period. Has anything serious happened?"
Qin Yuwei asked casually.
In recent times, disciples of the Hundred Ghost Sect have appeared frequently, which is somewhat abnormal.
"I don't know. The Baigui Sect destroyed the intelligence network established by the Yuling Sect in our country of Zhao before. Maybe the spies of the Baigui Sect discovered another spy!"
Sun Xin guessed.
"The spies of the Hundred Ghost Sect are quite capable! They easily caught the spies of the Yuling Sect."
Shen Long said.
"A mutated ghost appeared in Xuanyin Valley and was captured by the disciples of the Hundred Ghost Sect. It must be related to this mutated ghost! Speaking of which, it was us, the disciples of the Yin Corpse Sect, who discovered the ghost first, and it was snatched away by the disciples of the Hundred Ghost Sect. .”
Sun Xin said with some dissatisfaction.
The Yin Corpse Sect is the weakest of the four sects in the Zhao Kingdom, far inferior to the Hundred Ghost Sect.
"Mutated ghosts? Can ghosts mutate?"
Shen Long said in surprise.
"Of course, but the chance of a ghost mutating is lower than that of spiritual beasts and insects. This also makes mutated ghosts very precious. The specific magical power of that ghost is unclear. After this mutated ghost was snatched away by the disciples of the Hundred Ghost Sect, it did not survive. It didn't take long for them to break Yulingzong's intelligence network, I don't believe there is such a coincidence."
Sun Xin complained.
"If this mutant ghost grows up, the Hundred Ghost Sect will be stronger."
Liu Yushan said, his face full of envy.
"Let's not talk about this anymore, let's talk about something else!"
Chen Feng changed the topic and they became angry when he mentioned this matter.
They talked about cultivation, covering everything from their cultivation experience, ways to resolve bottlenecks to practicing second-level spells.
When they talked about the various arts of cultivating immortals, Sun Xin said: "By the way, Fellow Daoist Shen, I heard that you are a second-level alchemist? You can refine middle-grade elixirs!"
"My success rate is not high. I spent a lot of spiritual stones to buy elixirs, but I can only refine two second-level elixirs, namely Heyuan Dan and Huang Xingdan. Why, Mrs. Sun is also an alchemist?"
Shen Long asked politely.
The two second-level elixir prescriptions were bought by him and other foundation-building monks. Shen Long was not afraid of the other party's investigation.
"That's not true. I don't have that talent. Fellow Daoist Shen has never considered joining a sect? It's better to enjoy the shade under the big tree."
Sun Xin said meaningfully.
"It's good to enjoy the shade under a big tree, but raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a short period of time has advantages and disadvantages! I'm used to being idle and don't want to join other forces."
Shen Long said.
Sun Xin nodded and changed the topic.
After chatting for most of an hour, they began to exchange things.
Sun Xin and other five people wanted to exchange Yin Beads and Corpse Beads. The higher the grade, the more they liked them, but Shen Long couldn't take them out.
Sun Xin took out a demon elixir from a second-level demon ant, and Shen Long exchanged it for a yellow apricot elixir, preparing to give it to the gold-eating ant queen.
It was Shen Long's turn to exchange. He took out the second-level elixir and weapon-refining materials, and wanted to exchange them for something of equal value, preferably a second-level elixir recipe. Unfortunately, he could not exchange for a second-level elixir recipe, but only exchanged some weapon refining materials. Materials for alchemy.
After more than an hour, the gathering dispersed and all the monks went back to their homes.
As soon as Shen Long returned to Qingtang Courtyard, he took out a communication disk with flashing blue light and entered a magic formula. Chen Liang's voice sounded: "Uncle Yu, I got what you asked for, how can I give it to you?"
