In his early years, Shen Long performed a mission in Zhao State and seized a foundation-building pill from the enemy. He kept it. He didn't have much use in keeping it, but it was good for trading.
He is a second-level alchemist. He can look up the recipe for the Foundation Establishment Pill, and he can refine the Foundation Establishment Pill after collecting all the materials.
"No problem, deal."
Mu Weiwei looked happy and agreed.
"Wait!"
Shen Long grabbed the wooden box with his palm.
Mu Weiwei frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, what do you mean?"
"Fairy Mu, you have too few fragments. In terms of value, the Foundation Establishment Pill is higher than these fragments. If the gold-eating ant queen swallows these fragments, she may not be able to advance to the third level, right!"
Shen Long said.
"What does Fellow Daoist Shen mean?"
Mu Weiwei said doubtfully.
"It's not that I can't bring out tens of thousands of spiritual stones. Fairy Mu travels all over the country, so she must have some good things with her! If I want to sell Foundation Establishment Pills, there will be many people who will buy from me."
Shen Long said.
Mu Weiwei pondered for a moment, then took out a two-inch long piece of black wood and handed it to Shen Long.
"This is a 300-year-old soul-nourishing tree. When worn on the body, it can nourish the soul, calm the soul, and prevent people from going crazy during practice. However, there is only one foundation-building pill. I am at a loss. The soul-nourishing tree But one of the top ten spiritual trees.”
Mu Weiwei said.
There are ten kinds of spiritual trees in the Qianyang Realm that have special effects. They are collectively called the top ten spiritual trees, and the soul-nourishing tree is one of them.
Five-hundred-year-old soul-nurturing wood can be used to refine magic weapons, store souls, and prolong the time for soul power to dissipate. However, the soul-nurturing wood Mu Weiwei took out was too small. It was only three hundred years old and was not enough to be used. Refining magic weapons.
Shen Long took out a green gourd, handed it to Mu Weiwei, and said, "This is some Xuanhan True Water!"
Mu Weiwei opened the gourd plug, and a strange cold air surged out.
After she carefully checked and confirmed that it was Xuanhan True Water, she nodded and said, "Deal."
"Wood Fairy is so talented, she can even get a three-hundred-year-old soul-nurturing tree."
Shen Long praised.
"It's just a small piece. It's not very old, but it can't be refined into a magic weapon. It's no problem to refine a magic weapon. It's no problem to store the divided soul or the spirit of a monster."
Mu Weiwei said.
Shen Long nodded, he naturally knew that he already had the Yun Shen Pendant, and this piece of soul-nurturing wood could be used to refine a soul-nurturing magic weapon.
After chatting for a while, Shen Long said goodbye and left.
As soon as he returned to Yulingyuan, Qian Dafu came towards him.
"Junior Brother Qian, do you want to go out?"
Shen Long asked casually.
Qian Dafu helped Shen Long find out the details of Xu Yunfeng and was responsible for registering the quantity and purpose of the supplies. All three countries deployed personnel to prevent people from other forces from enriching their own pockets.
"Yes! I have already booked the banquet, Senior Brother Shen, you can just go there when the time comes."
Qian Dafu said.
He is good at handling general affairs and helps Shen Long with trivial matters.
"Okay, you should arrive early and I will introduce you to some fellow Taoists."
Shen Long said.
"No, I have something to do and I can't go. Let's do it next time!"
Qian Dafu declined.
Shen Long nodded and said, "Okay! If you are busy, just ask if you need help."
"must."
Qian Dafu agreed and walked out.
Back at his residence, Shen Long walked into a secret room and released gold-eating ants.
He has controlled the number of gold-eating ants to more than 100,000, and the second-level gold-eating ants have exceeded 2,000. This number is still increasing. He now drives the gold-eating ants to fight against the enemy, and the power has increased a lot. However, feeding the gold-eating ants The cost also increases.
Shen Long couldn't feed every gold-eating ant with animal spirit pills. Only gold-eating ants had this treatment.
He took out a green storage bag and shook the bag mouth down. A green glow passed by, and there was a lot of weapon refining materials on the ground.
More than 100,000 gold-eating ants swarmed up and gnawed at the refining materials.
Shen Long released the Iron Tail Scorpion and fed it an inner elixir from a late-stage second-level poisonous scorpion and a beast spirit elixir.
The iron-tailed scorpion consumed a lot of poisonous weeds and poisonous sacs, and also swallowed up the inner elixirs of poisonous insects and poisonous beasts. The toxicity was greatly increased, and the strength was significantly improved.
As the level increased, the gold-eating ants' eating speed also increased a lot. It didn't take long for them to finish the weapon refining materials on the ground.
Shen Long fed the gold-eating ant queen a beast spirit pill, put them back into the spirit beast bag, closed his eyes to rest, and meditated to adjust his breathing.
The day passed quickly. At seven o'clock in the morning, the sky had darkened, the lights were brightly lit, and there were many pedestrians on the street.
When Shen Long came to the door of Zuixianju, a green-shirted attendant saw Shen Long and walked over quickly and said: "Senior Shen, Senior Qian has already given the order, please follow me."
Shen Long followed the green-shirted waiter in the shop to a private room, which could accommodate fifty people.
"Is the banquet ready?"
Shen Long asked.
"It's all ready, I don't know when Senior Shen wants to serve it."
The green-shirted attendant said.
"I will inform you before the food is served. First, I will serve a pot of good tea and two plates of spiritual cakes. If someone comes to see me, I will take them to this private room."
Shen Long ordered, took out two spiritual stones and threw them to the attendant in blue shirt.
The smile on the green-shirted attendant's face deepened and he said, "Yes, Senior Shen, come right away."
The attendant in green shirt turned around and walked out, closing the door.
Shen Long sat down and waited quietly.
Not long after, the attendant in green shirt came in, carrying a green tray, put down a pot of spiritual tea and two plates of snacks, and then left.
Shen Long took out a thick blue book with the four characters "Summary of Killing Barbarians" written on the cover. This book was compiled by the Lengyan Sect and recorded ways to deal with barbarians.
Barbarians, both male and female, are physically stronger. Once a barbarian of the same level gets close to them, they will be in danger. Thunder spells, ice spells, poison skills, and fire magical powers have good effects on barbarian monks.
In addition, this book also records the weaknesses of the barbarian totem technique. The Cold Flame Sect printed a large number of copies and distributed them to the monks on the front line.
Compared with the barbarians, the human race has a variety of skills and secrets, such as sword cultivation, sound cultivation, insect cultivation, poison cultivation, law cultivation, body cultivation, ghost cultivation, puppet master, etc. There are many methods, while the methods of the barbarians are relatively few.
Shen Long read it with great interest. This book also recorded some experiences of foundation-building monks in dealing with barbarian monks. Barbarian monks from different tribes had different methods and strengths.
The barbarian monks from the Sirius tribe use the totem technique, and their physical bodies increase greatly. The barbarian monks from the Thunder Eagle tribe use the totem technique, and their reaction speed is faster and very flexible.
After a while, the door opened and Chu Yanran walked in. She was currently in the late stage of foundation building.
"Fairy Chu, you came so early."
Shen Long put away the books, smiled at Chu Yanran, and said, "Fairy Chu, you came very early."
"Fellow Daoist Shen is treating me to a treat, so I naturally have to come a little earlier. It seems that the other fellow daoists haven't arrived yet."
Chu Yanran smiled slightly and sat down.
Shen Long poured her a cup of spiritual tea and said, "By the way, Fairy Chu, why isn't your brother here?"
"He was injured by the barbarians and has not recovered yet."
Chu Yanran explained.
Shen Long suddenly realized it and started chatting with Chu Yanran.
Chu Yanran wants to fight against the barbarian monks in the foundation-building stage, and uses magic weapons and spiritual beasts to deal with the barbarian monks.
"By the way, Fellow Daoist Shen, do you have any spiritual beasts or insects with strong bloodline? I can buy them from you at a high price."
Chu Yanran said.
The spiritual beasts she had cultivated for many years were killed by the barbarian monks. Currently, she did not have a second-level spiritual beast with her, so she had no confidence in fighting against the barbarian monks.
"No, the bloodline is strong? At most two. If you are interested, I can ask Junior Brother Qian to help you keep an eye on it. We are friends, so there is no need to pay a high price."
Shen Long said.
"Okay, I'll trouble you then. The main reason is that my spirit beast was killed by a barbarian monk. In a head-on fight, without the help of the spirit beast, I am no match for the barbarians."
Chu Yanran said.
The Yuling Sect is good at repelling insects and beasts, and the spiritual beasts and insects recommended by Yuling Sect disciples are definitely not bad.
"It's a trivial matter. It seems that the barbarian monks are really powerful."
Shen Long said with a smile.
"Barbarian monks are indeed powerful, but Fellow Daoist Shen is not weak either. If you are against barbarian monks, I believe they are no match for you."
Chu Yanran said.
"I agree with this. Famous teachers produce great disciples. Senior Lin has amazing magical powers. Fellow Daoist Shen is the third in Xuanyang Dharma Association. His strength is definitely not weak."
A cheerful male voice sounded.
As soon as he finished speaking, a burly man in red shirt walked in. The man in red shirt had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and thick hands and feet.
"Fellow Daoist Xia, you are here."
Shen Long smiled slightly and said hello.
The big man in red shirt is called Xia Yihu, and he is from the Xia family in Jinyan Valley. The Xia family is an immortal cultivating family affiliated with Lengyan Sect. There are more than ten alchemy cultivators with strong strength and profound foundation.
"Why should Fellow Daoist Shen stay in the Tiandan Palace to refine elixirs all the time? It's appropriate to fight with the barbarian monks."
Xia Yihu's voice was loud.
"Fellow Daoist Shen is an alchemy master. He can also contribute through alchemy. It's not like you have to fight against barbarian monks to make a contribution."
A pleasant female voice sounded.
As soon as he said this, Bai Keke walked in.
Shen Long invited the two of them to sit down and started chatting.
Foundation-building monks arrived one after another, and more than thirty foundation-building monks came and gathered in this private room.
After everyone arrived, Shen Long raised his glass and said, "I'd like to toast everyone."
After saying this, all the monks raised their wine glasses and responded to Shen Long.
After a glass of wine, Shen Long and others started chatting, mostly related to the war.
"I heard that the barbarians began to send people deep into the hinterland of our human race to cause trouble, causing us a lot of damage."
Xia Yihu said.
The border between the human race and the barbarians is very long and cannot be covered by formations. The barbarian monks have the opportunity to send people deep into the hinterland of the human race to cause trouble, attack material storage points, and attack supply lines.
"We can also send people into their hinterland to cause trouble! Tooth for tooth!"
Bai Keke said.
"White Fairy doesn't know something. The barbarians send semi-barbarians or humans to cause trouble. It's difficult for us to prevent it. As soon as we humans appear in the barbarian territory and encounter the barbarians, the barbarians will kill them. It's difficult to sneak in, and the totem of the barbarians is The skills are quite powerful, and if they block you, it will be difficult to escape."
Xia Yihu explained.
The descendants of barbarians and human monks are called half-barbarians. Half-barbarians have the characteristics of human races and can practice the Five Elements or other exercises like human monks. They can make alchemy, weapons, and talisman formations. The barbarians will cultivate half-barbarians and send them back. In the human race's territory, you can gather information, collect resources for cultivating immortals, and make trouble during war.
On the contrary, if human monks want to sneak into the hinterland of the barbarians to cause trouble, it will be difficult for them to approach important locations and sneak in secretly. Once discovered, they will be hunted by the barbarians.
"Yes! Two months ago, one of my clan brothers and some fellow Taoists were ordered to take down a small tribe of barbarians. They were discovered as soon as they got close. The barbarians raised a lot of spiritual insects and beasts and placed them on the outside to advance. It’s hard to detect even with spiritual consciousness, and it’s impossible to guard against it.”
Chu Yanran said.
"Count the time. In a few days, we will have to fight the barbarians again. I don't know if I can come back alive."
Xia Yihu sighed.
"Fellow Daoist Xia is pessimistic. The barbarians are not as powerful as you say."
Shen Long comforted.
"It depends on which tribe of barbarian monks you are facing. If you are a barbarian monk from a small tribe, your strength will generally not be too strong. If you are a barbarian monk from a large tribe, your strength will be stronger."
Chu Yanran said.
The large barbarian tribes have small and medium-sized tribes under their jurisdiction, similar to the cultivating sects that have affiliated cultivating families. The monks who come from the big sects are generally stronger. Of course, there will be masters who come from small forces, but the number is not large.
After more than an hour, the banquet dispersed and all the monks went back to their homes.
As soon as Shen Long returned to Yulingyuan, he was summoned by the master Bingcan.
"Disciple pays homage to master."
Shen Long bowed and said.
"How's it going! How's your errand at Tiandan Palace going?"
Master Bingcan asked with a gentle tone.
"Thanks to the master, the disciple is doing well."
Shen Long said.
"You have been in Juman City for a while. How much do you know about the barbarian monks?"
Master Bingcan continued to ask.
Shen Long didn't hide anything and answered truthfully.
"Master, in a few days, we will have another small fight with the barbarian monks?"
Shen Long asked curiously.
Master Bingcan nodded and asked, "What? Do you want to join the war?"
"This disciple wants to fight against the barbarian monks. Most of the time is spent refining pills, which is a bit boring."
Shen Long said.
"Okay, then you go and fight with them when the time comes. The master will watch over you."
Master Bingcan agreed.
"Thank you, Master, for your help."
Shen Long thanked him repeatedly and looked happy.
"By the way, I heard that you have been getting closer to Daoist Bai's descendants recently. Do you like her?"
Master Bingcan asked.
"No, just ordinary friends."
Shen Long shook his head.
"If you like her, tell my master, and I can propose marriage to fellow Taoist Bai."
Master Bingcan said cheerfully.
"Yes, thank you, master."
Shen Long agreed.
Master Bingcan gave some instructions and asked Shen Long to retreat.
Back at his residence, Shen Long meditated and adjusted his breath.
Three days passed quickly. Early in the morning, Shen Long left his residence early and came to the city wall.
A loud beast roar sounded, and a large black shadow appeared in the distant sky, running quickly towards Juman City.
Shen Long's expression condensed and he looked into the distance.
A group of giant wolves came into view, each with a barbarian monk sitting on its body, and high in the sky were giant eagles, with a barbarian monk on the back of the giant eagle.
A cyan giant wolf and a silver thunder eagle attracted attention. They were both level three. Gu Bing stood on the head of the cyan giant wolf with an indifferent expression.
A burly man in a golden shirt stood on the back of a silver thunder eagle, with a square face and big eyes.
