These spiritual trees are too thin and are not very useful when used to refine wooden magic weapons. However, they can be used as fuel for refining elixirs and refining weapons. This kind of spiritual wood is not only flame-resistant and powerful, but also burns stably without smoke or dust impurities, which is comparable to that in the sect. The miscellaneous spiritual trees planted are much better.
Monk refining elixirs and refining weapons have very high requirements for fire. It is most convenient for high-level monks to use their own elixir fire. Low-level monks do not have this ability, so they must rely on earth fire or spiritual fire burned by spiritual trees. There are no earth fire resources around the Qingfeng Palace. It is impossible to find suitable and stable earth fire for elixir and weapon refining, so the only choice is to use the spiritual fire burned by the spiritual wood.
Because the quality of spiritual wood varies, the spiritual fire produced by burning is also different, and because when spiritual wood burns, it will produce some impurities such as smoke and dust. If it is not handled well, these impurities will enter the utensils and elixirs being refined. Among them, it will lead to failure in refining alchemy and weapon refining, so when using spirit wood, you need to pay special attention and be careful.
But the Eagle's Nest in front of us is different. All the spirit wood is uniform in thickness and size, burns stably and has strong firepower, and does not produce smoke or impurities. It is the best combustion-supporting material. Even if this Eagle's Nest is taken back and sold to others, It can also be exchanged for dozens of spiritual stones. Of course, Qingyang would not be willing to sell it. He planned to keep it for himself and use it to learn alchemy. Moreover, he did not plan to use it at ordinary times. He could only use it when refining high-level or important elixirs.
The trip up was well worth it. Qingyang sighed a few words and put the entire eagle's nest into the talisman before climbing down from the stone peak along the original path.
After descending from Shifeng, Qingyang was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he rested on the hill for two days. In addition to healing his wounds, he skewered the red-feathered eagle's meat and roasted it for food. In the past six months, I have only been relying on Bigu Pill. Although I don't feel hungry, my mouth has no taste at all. This roasted eagle meat is just the way to replenish my appetite.
Two days later, Qingyang's injury from the fall completely improved, and all aspects were adjusted to the best condition. He then packed up and went down the hill, continuing to walk deeper into the Chaos Demon Valley.
After that, Qingyang resumed his days of exploring during the day and practicing at night. He also walked around during the day. He did not pursue speed. He could only cover a few dozen miles in a day. He would search every place, especially when he encountered an inaccessible place where treasures might be hidden or spiritual grasses could grow. He would also stop and search carefully, sometimes for several days.
He spent all his time practicing in the Chaos Demon Valley, spending several days outside without the aid of elixirs, and his cultivation speed was faster than when Qingyang was outside with constant elixirs. From the entry into the fourth level of Qi Refining to the consolidation, to the Dacheng and even the peak, watching his cultivation improve a little bit every day, Qingyang became more and more convinced that by the end of this trial, even if he could not break through the fifth level of Qi Refining, It should be almost done.
Maybe he had used up all his luck in the past half year, or maybe he came a little late and all the good things were taken away by others. In short, during this period, Qingyang almost never found anything of high value. , not only are there not many spiritual herbs of a certain age, but even monsters have not been encountered, which can be said to be extremely bad luck.
Unknowingly, more than four months have passed, and there are less than two months left before the end of the trial. Qingyang's cultivation has gradually improved to the peak of the fourth level of Qi Refining, but other gains are Not big. In the past four months, a total of twenty elixirs were found. Only three were over a hundred years old, and the total value was only more than eighty spiritual stones.
Qingyang didn't care much about this, because he knew that this should be a normal state. If everyone who participated in the trial was like himself, finding good things like purple-striped fruits and bag beasts at every turn, then finding It is impossible for the magic order to have a market price of eight or nine hundred spiritual stones.
For most monks, entering the Chaos Demon Valley to practice is the first priority. One year of practice here is as good as five or six years outside. Those with good qualifications can even directly improve their cultivation level by more than one level. This is You can't buy it with any amount of spiritual stones, because your lifespan is limited, and you might not be able to break through to a higher level in just a few years.
As for other gains, eighty spiritual stones in four months is not too much, and there are about two hundred in one year. You can get so many extra things besides practicing, what else is there to be dissatisfied about? Qingyang once knew the general gains of the disciples who participated in the Chaos Demon Valley trial. On average, each person only received about 300 spiritual stones.
After the trial, the Demon Hunting Order is handed in, and the items obtained by each disciple in the Chaotic Demon Valley will be evaluated. Things worth one spiritual stone will be counted as one point. The higher the total score, the higher the ranking of the disciple. The total score of each sect not only determines the sect's ranking, but can also be used to allocate magic-seeking orders.
As for the personal ranking of the trial disciples, it also has many uses. Not only can it bring honor and increase influence to oneself, but each sect will also provide additional rewards to those at the top.
Among Qingyang's harvest, excluding those items that are inconvenient to be exposed, the total value of other items with no obvious characteristics exceeds 1,500 spirit stones, which is more than 1,500 points. This is the total value of trial disciples in the past. Five times the average, so Qingyang's points ranking must be very high.
However, it is impossible to think first, because Qingyang acts alone, and many other people work in teams, especially those who have backstage and status in the sect. Their team members are in Chaotic Demon Valley. What is obtained from it may also be counted on the captain's head.
Some people may do it for reputation. After all, it is an event that all immortal sects in the Nine Provinces Continent participate in. Once they rank high, they can gain a huge reputation throughout the Nine Provinces Continent.
Some people may just want to compete for a while. Both of them are proud of the sky. They are not convinced by each other and have been fighting openly and secretly. The ranking of the Chaos Demon Valley trial is also an opportunity to compete.
Some people may just want to get rewards from the sect and bring glory to the sect. The sect will definitely not be stingy with rewards. If you can get some extra benefits for free, why not do it?
This situation is very common among trial disciples. It is unavoidable and unavoidable. The various sects do not care about it. Even if the disciples communicate with each other, it is usually done within the sect, and the influence of the entire sect is Interests have no impact.
Qingyang has an indifferent attitude towards this ranking. If there is a chance, it doesn't matter if he is ranked in the front. After all, it is a matter of bringing glory to the sect, and the sect should not do anything to him. If there is no chance, it is okay to be ranked in the back. He is that strong. , there is no need to pretend to be fat.
