Fang Xi carefully looked at the old man's stall and found that most of it contained some strange bamboo tubes and gold and jade boxes.
There was a sound similar to the chirping of insects, faintly coming from the bamboo tube.
Gu cultivator is different from insect cultivator. Insect cultivator can only be regarded as a small branch of the art of controlling beasts. It is good at cultivating and driving various spiritual insects.
But Gu cultivators use secret methods to refine various kinds of "Gu", which are said to have all kinds of incredible functions.
According to Fang Xi's understanding, Chong Xiu is a master of breeding, while Gu Xiu has reached the level of biochemical transformation.
"I'm not busy with you, but first tell me what kind of Gu you have in your stall?" Fang Xi became interested and started chatting with the old Gu cultivator.
"The types of these Gu insects are ever-changing according to different secret methods...but they can generally be divided into four categories according to their grades - Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang!"
The old Gu cultivator smiled, showing his yellowed teeth, and talked eloquently: "Most of the Gu cultivators in the Qi refining stage can only produce "yellow" level Gu insects, which can also replace the functions of some small spells, such as controlling the wind. "Gu, after being refined, can ride on the wind, and the casting speed is even faster than that of pinching and reciting incantations... Those who can sacrifice Xuan-level spiritual Gu are already elites in Gu cultivation. As for Earth-level Gu insects?" I have only seen it once... and the "Sky" level Gu insect is probably even rarer than the Nascent Soul monster. It is said that its power is comparable to that of the Nascent Soul cultivator."
"I see." Fang Xi rummaged through the stalls and had no interest in those low-level sleepy poisons such as "Golden Toad Gu".
Instead, he picked up a "Gu Cultivation Synopsis" written on bamboo slips, flipped through it, and started reading it with great interest.
This compendium does not contain the secret skills of Gu cultivators or any method of refining Gu insects, but it records the experiences of a certain Gu cultivator, which opened his eyes.
"The way of cultivating Gu is to eat the weak and the strong... hide different kinds of animals in the magic altar and cauldron, use secret methods to sacrifice them, and encourage them to eat each other. In the end, the winner will be "!"
"There are thousands of species of Gu, but the strongest is the Golden Silkworm Gu!"
"If this Gu is cultivated to the "Earth" level, it can be refined into Hundred Poison Gu, and then used as the raw material for Gu cultivation magic weapons. Whether it is the Hundred Poison Divine Banner, or the "Golden Silkworm Sword"... they all have wonderful uses. It should be regarded as Top level magic weapon. "
"It is rumored that Zhongtian's "Super Gu" has supreme supernatural powers. If it is refined into a natal Gu early and has a connected mind, it can even be used as a carrier for monks to practice the secret skills of the second Nascent Soul."
Fang Xi was very satisfied with what she read. She threw down a few middle-grade spiritual stones, bought the book, and continued shopping.
"Who says immortal cultivators can't pick up leaks? Now I'm in the Acropolis. There are leaks everywhere... Just buy a few elixirs and spiritual weapons... If I go back to the Southern Wilderness, I will at least double the profits..." "But Is this profit as high as the Qingye Chamber of Commerce's treasury? Not at all... After arriving at Yuanying, Fang Xi didn't take this little leakage seriously, which was quite a pity.
His wish to pick up leaks when he was still practicing Qi will probably never come true.
"Huh?"
At this time, he came to a stall selling jade slip exercises. He looked at the rolls of animal skins and fragments in the corner, and was a little surprised. Fang Xi picked up a roll of animal skins and saw that it was covered with a kind of ink. The green handwriting wrote a very strange symbol.
This kind of symbol should be a text symbol, and he has not seen it in any ancient books in the world of immortality.
But vaguely, it was similar to his understanding of the void runes, and was probably somewhat related.
"Fellow Taoist, have you also taken a fancy to this demonic writing?" The person setting up the stall was an alchemy monk in white clothes, holding an ancient book in his hand, and said with a smile.
"Yao Wen."
Fang Xi looked at the dark green words on the animal skin: "These are actually demonic words?!"
"That's right... I like to read and delve into ancient literature. I am also quite interested in this kind of demon literature, but it is difficult to get started."
The white-clothed pill-forming monk said: "Because of this, only high-level demon cultivators can carry this kind of demon inscriptions, and after fierce battles, most of the trophies were damaged... What's more important is that most of the demon clan's secrets and techniques cannot be used by us humans. , just like the demon race can’t learn many of the human race’s techniques and secret techniques.”
Therefore, few monks are interested in research, maybe
, only those Yuanying old monsters have such a long time and energy to decipher the demon texts.
Fang Xi took a closer look and discovered that many of the demonic texts he sold were indeed incomplete.
Some of them appeared directly on top of the metal fragments, and I don’t know what fragments they were of cauldrons or defensive magic weapons...
In the end, he took out a few high-grade spiritual stones and bought all the demonic texts on the stall.
This fellow Taoist is really a fellow Taoist. I’m Zeng Wanshu. These demonic texts can be sold at half price. As long as fellow Taoist can decipher something in the future, I will be grateful if you can let me know. "Zeng Wanshu bowed to me. "Dear," he said sincerely.
Judging from the way he can't let go of the book, he must be a book lover.
"Full price is enough...I always like to travel around the world, but I don't want to owe you any favors."
Fang Xi laughed, insisted on paying the full price, and took the animal skin with the demonic inscriptions on it and the fragments of the tripod.
After leaving gracefully, Zeng Wanshu looked at Fang Xi's leaving figure, but he touched his chin thoughtfully, a shrewd look flashed across his face: "Hey, hey... I never thought that someone would really want this garbage. , he actually sold five high-grade spiritual stones and made a lot of money... Pretending to be a book lover really won the favor of many colleagues. He picked up the book in his hand, pretended to read it, and then picked it up from the storage room. He casually took out a few volumes of demonic books from his bag and threw them in the corner of the stall...
"Battle merit list!"
After casually browsing the street stalls, Fang Xi came to the battle merit list. The first thing she saw was the infant-forming spiritual item that ranked first on the list - "Huaying Dan! This pill is a counterfeit The ancient "Ningying Dan" was refined, but due to the lack of several key elements of the elixir of heaven and earth, its efficacy was only 20 to 30% of the original version.
Even so, in the Western Desert Immortal Cultivation World, it takes hundreds of years to scrape together a batch of materials with the combined power of the eight Nascent Soul Sects.
Fang Xi looked at the required feats and said, "I feel like I need to kill a few demon cultivators in disguise. It's really a trap."
He looked down and immediately saw several good rewards.
After another rummaging, I saw what I wanted in a more conspicuous place: the "Demon Slaying Sword, the Ten Thousand Demon Banners, and the Demon Mirror... These three magic weapons are collectively called the "Three Treasures of Demon Slayers". The method of refining the product is quite cheap. Even if the refining method of the genuine product is used, the combat merit of killing a few third-level monsters is barely enough. "
Fang Xi glanced at the battle merit list a few more times, then came to a place to register.
"Senior, are you going to accept a mission?" The person in charge of registration was a foundation-building monk, who always held a demon mirror in his hand. When he saw Fang Xi coming, his expression suddenly became respectful.
"Yes. Let's go through the formalities. I want to go out of the city to hunt monsters..."
Fang Xi threw out her yellow token. Most of the casual cultivators didn't like to go up to the city wall and be restrained. Even if their combat performance was higher, most of them chose to go out of the city to kill monsters alone or in a small team.
"Junior understands... Dare I ask my senior's surname?"
"Master Mu!" The foundation builder quickly registered: "Senior's token authority has been updated. You can use a teleportation array to go back and forth to the demon area. Please keep this photo stone as a certificate of military exploits... If it is lost or damaged , leaving behind the key materials of the monster can also be used as a voucher."
Fang Xi nodded to express understanding, and then went to the other half of the city. As soon as he entered, he saw groups of high-level monks forming thermal magic teams flying through the sky. If he practiced the art of spiritual eyes, he could even see different things. Above the city in the distance, various magical auras were flickering.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, as if it had entered a war zone!
At this time, a group of monks also passed by and glanced at Fang Xi.
But the yellow token around his waist gave off a yellow glow, seeming to confirm his identity.
The group of monks was led by an arrogant female monk. She slightly raised her forehead and showed no intention of talking, so they just passed by.
Fang Xi followed the map and soon came to a heavily guarded palace.
A vague divine consciousness swept over him in an instant.
"The old monster Nascent Soul is here, but it's only in the early stages... He pretended to know nothing and walked into the hall."
Boom!
one
The thunder pillars towered up from the sky and the earth, as if they were supporting the entire palace.
Under the lightning, there are small teleportation arrays.
"Short-distance teleportation array!" Fang Xi's eyes lit up slightly. He could also set up this array now, but he wanted to take a good look at the craftsmanship of his colleagues in the Southern Wilderness.
"This fellow Taoist is also planning to go out of the city to hunt monsters?" A rough man in the late stage of alchemy formation immediately stepped forward and issued an invitation: "I, You Tianhao, how about forming a team?"
"I'm sorry, I like to be alone." Fang Xi flatly refused, no matter how ugly the person's face was, she came to a teleportation table, showed her token, and stood up.
"This teleportation is random. Fellow Taoists will land anywhere in an area. We have already found out clearly that there are fewer monsters there."
[In view of the general environment,
"I wish fellow Taoist disciples a great victory!" Su Rong, the monk in charge of the teleportation, congratulated and fired a magic formula.
The silver light flashes, and the world changes immediately!
"The discomfort of this short-distance teleportation array is much less than that of the ancient teleportation array."
Fang Xi looked at the brilliance of Tianyu's formation and the grassland on the ground, and thought to herself.
At this moment, a jackal-like third-level monster was passing by not far away. It was as big as a mountain and was wrapped in flames.
When he saw Fang Xi, he immediately rushed over!
"Does this count as the monster beasts appearing less frequently?" Fang Xi opened his mouth and spat out a jet of black flames speechlessly in his heart. When the flaming jackal saw that Fang Xi's mana was fluctuating but could not form a pill, he roared crazily and spat out a jet of black flames. Red flames.
But as soon as the dark flames came out, the red flames were instantly burned by the black flames.
Then... he followed the connection between the flames and landed on the flaming jackal.
Stab!
Black flames instantly swept through the monster's body, causing it to turn into an inch of ash before it could even cry out!
