Zhao State, Hundred Ghost Sect.
In a quiet black manor, a skinny old man in black robe, Chen Zhen and Xu Yuyan were sitting in a blue stone pavilion, talking about something.
"When you hit the core formation stage, you can attract two two-color divine thunder, which is very good."
The old man in black robe praised.
Xuanyin Zhenren is in the middle stage of pill formation.
"Thanks to Grandfather Xuan's cultivation, Grandfather Xuan's attack on the Dan Formation Stage attracted five three-color divine thunder, which is more powerful than my grandson."
Chen Jing said modestly.
"You can attract the two-color divine thunder. What Heaven recognizes is your strength in the foundation-building stage. You are now in the pill-forming stage. How far you can go depends on you. The past does not represent the future. Jinwu Zhenjun is an example. Yuyan , you should also consider entering the pill formation stage."
Master Xuanyin said earnestly, took out a cyan porcelain bottle and handed it to Xu Yuyan.
"Thank you, Grandpa Xuan!"
Xu Yuyan took the cyan porcelain bottle with both hands and said gratefully.
Master Xuanyin said a few words and asked them to retreat.
······
Half a year passed quickly.
Qin State, Yuling Sect.
In Qinglian Garden, the door to a secret room opened, and Shen Long walked out with a smile on his face.
He has consolidated his realm and plans to go out and deal with some trivial matters.
Shen Long has entered the elixir-forming stage. According to the sect rules, he can change to a cave with more spiritual energy and receive a sum of resources for cultivating immortals.
He walked out of Qinglian Pavilion. Qian Dafu, Lin Shan, Ye Yuqing, Ye Yutang and dozens of other foundation-building monks had been waiting for a long time.
"Disciple pays homage to Master Shen."
Qian Dafu and others bowed and saluted with solemn expressions.
Shen Long is already a pill-forming monk, and his status is not what it used to be, so they don't dare to neglect him.
"You don't have to be polite. What you were like before is what you will be like in the future."
Shen Long said cheerfully.
"Yes, Master Shen."
Qian Dafu and others agreed in unison, with respectful expressions.
"Uncle Shen, Uncle Lin sent Senior Sister Chen to send a message, saying that you are out of confinement and should go to Uncle Lin's residence."
Lin Shan said.
Shen Long nodded, that was exactly what he meant.
"Uncle Shen, we have gathered some spiritual stones, but they are not many. Congratulations on your advancement to the pill-forming stage."
Qian Dafu stepped forward, took out a cyan storage bag and handed it to Shen Long.
Shen Long took the storage bag, glanced at it with his consciousness, and said with some surprise: "Two hundred thousand spirit stones, so much."
"No more, no more. This is our intention. Please don't be too little, Master Shen."
Qian Dafu said cautiously.
When Shen Long entered the Core Formation stage, they had to express their feelings. After discussing it, they decided to collect a sum of spiritual stones and give them to Shen Long to congratulate Shen Long on his advancement to the Core Formation stage.
"Business matters are still under your control. Don't do anything wrong under my banner. But if necessary, you can still use my banner, you know?"
Shen Long said.
Qian Dafu and others can help Shen Long handle trivial matters and collect resources for cultivating immortals. Shen Long can focus more on cultivation.
"Yes, Master Shen."
Qian Dafu and others agreed wholeheartedly.
Qian Dafu thought of something and said, "By the way, Senior Uncle Shen, Junior Sister Liu Yuruo and Liu have been transferred back to the main altar."
Liu Yuruo joined the Yuling Sect, established a foundation with the help of the Yuling Sect, and worked in the Information Hall.
"She doesn't know that I have entered the Dan Formation stage?"
Shen Long asked.
"I know. I specifically asked me to hand over these two 500-year-old red moon mushrooms to you. She got the task and went out."
Qian Dafu took out two red jade boxes and handed them to Shen Long.
Shen Long opened two red jade boxes, each containing a red Ganoderma lucidum. There were some flame-like patterns on the surface of the Ganoderma lucidum.
"If she comes back, ask her to come see me. I haven't seen her for a long time."
Shen Long ordered.
"Yes, Master Shen."
Qian Dafu agreed.
Shen Long gave them a few words and asked them to disperse, each doing their own thing.
He came to Ice Silkworm Valley and issued a transmission note.
Not long after, Chen Bing walked out.
"Junior Brother Shen, you are finally out of seclusion. Master has been talking about you all this time."
Chen Bing greeted with a smile.
She and Shen Long are the same master. No matter how different their realms are, they are treated as equals. If they are not the same master, it naturally depends on their realm. The one with a higher realm is the elder, regardless of age.
"Senior sister, where is senior brother!"
Shen Long continued to ask.
"The senior brother is out on business. He is stuck in a bottleneck and is looking for something to do. He wants to take this opportunity to resolve the bottleneck."
Chen Bing explained and invited Shen Long in.
Xu Xin tried many methods to resolve the bottleneck.
Not long after, Shen Long followed Chen Bing to Bingcan Pavilion and met the real Bingcan.
"Disciple pays homage to master."
Shen Long bowed and saluted with a respectful expression.
Master Bingcan was very kind to him, and Shen Long respected Master Bingcan from the bottom of his heart.
"You have entered the stage of pill formation, but you don't have a natal magic weapon yet. Have you considered a natal magic weapon?"
Bing Canzhen gets straight to the point.
Even if they are alchemy monks who practice the same technique, their natal magic weapons are very different and vary from person to person.
Shen Long looked up the pill-forming monks of the Yuling Sect who practiced the "Nine Transformation Dragon Skill". Their natal magic weapons were very different. Some were gloves, some were knives, some were axes, and some were giant sticks.
"Disciple has considered it, but my knowledge is limited, so I still ask master to give me some advice."
Shen Long told the truth.
"Are you planning to change your cultivation method? Our sect only has the first seven levels of the "Nine Transformation Flood Dragon Technique". It also requires the third-level dragon essence and blood to refine the blood dragon pill to assist in the cultivation. The conditions are very restrictive, but this one The technique is indeed powerful. I heard that some people in the Beihai Immortal Cultivation World have practiced this technique to the ninth level and are able to withstand magic weapons. If you continue to practice this technique, you can go to the Beihai Immortal Cultivation World and you may be able to find follow-up techniques. If you plan to change your practice, you can choose a practice that reaches the Nascent Soul stage."
Master Bingcan said slowly.
"The disciple does not plan to change the cultivation method for the time being. In the future, he will go to Beihai to cultivate the immortal world. If he cannot find the follow-up cultivation method, he will change the cultivation method."
Shen Long said.
"Nine Transformations Jiao Kung" is the sect-suppressing technique of the Wulong Sect, and the magical powers it comes with are really good. The higher the level of training, the stronger Shen Long's physical body becomes.
"It is indeed good that you think so, but have you considered time? One hundred years or two hundred years? Three hundred years? I am afraid that you will be obsessed with this set of exercises and miss the best time to practice when you wake up, delaying your path. There are many such examples in the world of immortal cultivation. Some monks have great supernatural powers or extraordinary talents. They are obsessed with certain skills, exercises, and treasures, and delay their own cultivation. By the time they wake up, they have missed the best time to practice."
Master Bingcan taught him step by step.
"This disciple is less than a hundred years old and still has more than five hundred years of life. If he can't find the follow-up technique in a hundred years, he will change the technique."
Shen Long said.
Naturally, he had made two preparations, and it was impossible to go all the way to the dark side.
"Okay, let's talk about the natal magic weapon. When you practice this skill, your body and energy will be very strong. Heavy-type treasures are more suitable for you, but weight alone is not enough. There are some defensive magical powers or treasures that are specially designed to restrain heavy-type ones. Treasure, I have listed several weapons for the teacher, you can use them as a reference."
Master Bingcan took out a white jade slip and handed it to Shen Long.
Shen Long took the jade slip, his consciousness immersed in it, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.
"Master, can you refine a magic weapon?"
Shen Long said.
"Of course you can, but different treasures use different materials. You should first consider the style of your natal magic weapon, and the teacher will help you choose the appropriate materials."
Bing Canzhen said.
"Thank you, master."
Shen Long said gratefully.
"By the way, I'm going to the Wang family in Haitang Valley to attend the birthday of the ancestor of the Wang family. Many high-level monks are going. This is a great opportunity to expand your network and social circle. You should go with me! Get to know more Taoist friends. Maybe I can help you in the future.”
Bing Canzhen said.
"Master, when will we set off?"
Shen Long asked.
"Half a year later, the birthday has not yet been held. You have just entered the pill formation stage, so you should consolidate your cultivation."
Bing Canzhen said.
"Yes, master."
Shen Long agreed.
After chatting over a cup of tea, Shen Long said goodbye and left.
He went to the Sutra Pavilion and used his good deeds to exchange for three third-level elixir prescriptions, and also exchanged a batch of elixirs for refining third-level elixirs.
Returning to Qinglian Garden, Shen Long walked into a secret room, took out the red crow cauldron and alchemy materials, closed his eyes and rested.
After sitting quietly for half an hour, Shen Long adjusted to his best condition, without any distracting thoughts, and started refining the elixir.
He opened his mouth and sprayed out the red lotus true flame, which landed on the bottom of the red crow cauldron. Soon, the red crow cauldron turned red, and the temperature in the room rose rapidly.
He threw the materials into the red crow cauldron one after another and closed the cauldron lid.
Not long after, a faint medicinal fragrance floated out from the Red Crow Cauldron and filled the entire secret room.
Shen Long did not dare to be careless and paid close attention to the situation inside the cauldron with his spiritual consciousness.
