After reading for a while, Lu Li suddenly felt that this was a waste of time, so he put the book away, entered the Time Palace, and continued to study.
In the evening, Lu Li finally mastered Tai Xuan's clone technique and retreated from the Time Palace.
Combining the upper and lower parts, Lu Li realized that the clone was not easy to make. First of all, the requirements for the target were very strict, that is, the body had to be perfectly preserved.
If it is the foundation building stage, it is necessary to keep the Tao foundation intact; in the golden elixir stage, it is necessary to keep the golden elixir intact; in the Yuan Ying stage, it is necessary to keep the Yuan Ying undamaged; but this is not possible in the transformation stage. Once you die in the transformation stage, your soul will be lost. Even if the corpse is really sacrificed to transform into a clone, it can only be practiced from the Qi training stage, which is equivalent to a waste of effort, no different from finding a corpse in the Qi training stage...
Fortunately, Lu Li didn't need to worry about this.
Luan Chaotian's body was well preserved. Although the Nascent Soul in his body had lost its spirituality, it was still there. Moreover, it had been placed in his space palace for so many years without any signs of decay. It was considered a perfect clone target.
More importantly, Luan Chaotian was said to have reached the limit of the Nascent Soul stage at the time. As long as he succeeded in the sacrifice and increased the strength of his soul, it would be equivalent to having an additional helper at the Nascent Soul stage.
However, the target corpse was available, but the two pills used to divide the soul were recorded on it, which made him a little embarrassed.
One is the 'Guardian Pill' that can ensure that the soul will remain intact when dividing the soul, and the other is the 'Condensation Pill' used when dividing the life soul and the seven souls.
The prescriptions for these two elixirs were recorded in the Taixuan Clone Technique, but Lu Li took inventory of the medicinal materials warehouse and after a while of piecing together, he still lacked three elixirs.
They are the fourth-order misty flower, the fourth-order jasper fruit, and the fourth-order ghost vine.
Lu Li thought about it secretly, and decided to go to Qionghua City to take a look. He had no shortage of spiritual stones now. If he could buy them with money, he would save himself the trouble of searching everywhere.
If he couldn't find it, then the matter would have to be put on hold for the time being. He had just paid ten years' rent, and he didn't want to delay his cultivation by refining the clone.
Moreover, the old monster Yin Ming is outside. If he goes out at this time, he will make himself unhappy.
The night was silent, and the lampposts standing in the valley glowed with faint white light. Lu Li floated down from the small building, landed behind the stone door, slowly activated the mechanism and walked out.
There were many lampposts lining the square outside. With the light falling from the moonstone, Lu Li glanced at the other two closed stone doors, shook his head and flew towards the foot of the mountain.
The door of the tower under Yuqiong Peak is still open.
Lu Li hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked in.
Compared to the daytime, there were no guests in the lobby at this time. There were only four or five stewards chatting. To Lu Li's relief, the middle-aged fat man who had received him before was also there.
Meng Shan and others saw Lu Li at a glance. When someone was about to greet him, Meng Shan flew out in a flash, came to Lu Li and said respectfully: "Senior, what can I do?"
Lu Li smiled slightly, "I'm going to go for a walk in the city and need a guide. Is it convenient for Deacon Meng?"
"No problem, senior, please wait a moment."
Meng Shan said with a smile, then walked back and whispered a few words to several of his classmates, and then came back and said, "Senior, please."
Afterwards, the two of them left the lobby one after another and walked along the broad road through the jungle towards the city.
Seeing that Lu Li didn't speak, Meng Shan didn't speak either, so he just followed him step by step.
When approaching the streets in the city, Lu Licai said, "Deacon Meng, is there a place in Qionghua City that buys and sells elixirs? One that is more reliable."
"Yes, Wantonglou, the largest chamber of commerce in the Sea of Annihilation, has a branch in Qionghua City. However, Wantonglou's store is too big, and sometimes the prices are not so fair. If not necessary, seniors from other more specialized shops will also You can go and take a look.”
"A more specialized store?"
"Yes, our Qionghua City has Xuandan Pavilion, Xuanqi Building, Miaofa Zhai...etc. They are all relatively specialized. They only do one business that they are good at. They are relatively sophisticated and the prices are very reasonable. That is because of their strength. It’s limited, and high-grade treasures and elixirs may be hard to come by..."
"I see." Lu Li nodded, "Thank you, Deacon Meng, for clearing up the confusion."
"Hi, senior, you are so polite. What about Deacon Meng? Just call me Xiao Meng..."
"Haha, you are pretty good, kid."
"..."
The two chatted while walking, and soon they walked onto the main street. To Lu Li's surprise, the night in Qionghua City did not seem to be as lively as expected. Although the lights were bright, there were not many people walking on the street.
After a while, the two came to a small building called 'Xuandan Pavilion'. Meng Shan said, "Senior, do you want to go in and take a look?"
Lu Li nodded and walked in side by side with Meng Shan.
The small building only has one floor. When you enter, you will find a trading hall. It is either big or small. However, there are few people around at this time. Some of the service staff are chatting together or lying on the counter and yawning. Seems extremely lazy.
"Ahem! Boss Ke, there are guests here, why don't you come out and say hello?" Seeing this, Meng Shan coughed lightly and shouted into the lobby.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at Lu Li and the two of them.
But before these people could react, a purple figure flashed over from the depths. When he stood still, he saw that it was a good-looking middle-aged woman.
"It's Deacon Meng. Why did you come to our Xuandan Building empty-handed today? If I remember correctly, it's not time to collect the rent yet, right?" The woman spoke in a strange way, as if she was a little uncomfortable with this Deacon Meng. Cold-like.
"Ahem, Boss Ke is joking. I'm not here to collect rent today. I'm here to do business with this senior. There's no need for Boss Ke to talk like this..." Meng Shan said slightly embarrassed.
senior?
After hearing what Meng Shan said, Ke Ping looked at Lu Li, then said with a professional smile, "Senior, do you want to buy or sell?"
Lu Li was slightly startled, "You can buy it or sell it. The key depends on whether you can eat it, Boss Ke."
As soon as he said this, Meng Shan beside him couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing.
Ke Ping's expression changed, revealing a hint of sullenness, "Senior's tone is quite serious, why don't I take it out and show it to the slave family to see if it can be eaten?"
Meng Shan was stunned for a moment, wondering why this guy suddenly became so aggressive today. Could it be that the alchemy furnace exploded?
Lu Li was a little confused about the change in Ke Ping's expression, so he frowned and said, "Here, it's not too good, why not... let's find a quiet place to watch?"
Hearing this, Meng Shan next to him was dumbfounded. He thought to himself that this senior was not going to do it for real, was he?
