In the subsequent auctions, some fourth-grade spiritual objects also appeared, but they were of no practical use. Li Shiming was only at the Golden Core stage, and most of the fourth-grade spiritual objects were still too high for him.
Besides, the high-grade spiritual stones in his hand are not enough to buy fourth-grade spiritual objects. Although Wu Qingshan promised him credit, he has no habit of taking credit. He will not take the initiative to take credit when there is no item that must be auctioned.
The auction was very long and lasted for three full days. All the people participating in the auction were monks. Even monks in the foundation building stage would not be a problem if they did not eat or drink for three days.
In fact, during the auction on the first floor, monks in the foundation-building stage were constantly coming in and out. Not many monks in the foundation-building stage actually stayed on the first floor for three days. After they almost captured the spiritual objects they wanted, they would leave and make way for other monks to come in.
Li Shiming's eyes were opened in the past three days. The rich resources of the Eastern Qi Continent far exceeded his imagination.
An auction organized by a casual cultivator force, and it was a small auction once a year, but it exceeded the big auction that took place in Beishu continent for many years.
On the last day of the auction, he was studying the fourth-grade formation flag in his hand. The natal magic weapon IBMz15 was calculating how to maximize its effect based on the eight fourth-grade formation flags.
"Master Li, Yu Songquan wants to see you!" At this time, a voice came from outside the door.
Li Shiming certainly knew who Yu Songquan was. He was none other than an ancestor of Yuan Ying from Wuqing Mountain.
Of the two Nascent Soul Ancestors in Wuqingshan, only one Nascent Soul Ancestor is usually in charge of affairs, while the other is a practicing Nascent Soul Ancestor. The two Nascent Soul Ancestors rotate every few decades.
Li Shiming didn't ask for help. He came to the box door and reached out to knock on the box door.
"I've met Ancestor Yu!" He bowed and said.
Ancestor Yu smiled and returned the gift. When he saw that there was no surprise on Li Shiming's face, he knew that Li Shiming was also a smart man.
The two of them walked into the box. Li Shiming waited for Ancestor Yu to sit down before sitting down at the bottom.
"Master Li, I'm here to thank you for starting the alchemy furnace for me!" Patriarch Yu said with a smile.
"I don't dare. Ancestor Yu paid me a reward. I am an alchemist and I naturally want to make alchemy!" Li Shiming replied politely.
Currently, he has no ability to protect himself, so he should try his best to deal with Ancestor Yu as carefully as possible.
It's not that he is afraid of Ancestor Yu, he just doesn't want to live a life of hiding in the East Qi Continent again.
This kind of casual cultivator Yuanying Ancestor still has the ability to escape from afar when using the divine foot power.
"Master Li, may I ask if you are willing to join Wuqingshan and become Wuqingshan's supreme guest?" Patriarch Yu suddenly asked.
Li Shiming was shocked. He did not expect that Ancestor Yu would ask such a question. He didn't know if he would make Ancestor Yu unhappy if he refused on the spot.
"I'm just happy to see you. Master Li, don't worry and think about it slowly!" Ancestor Yu saw Li Shiming's slight hesitation and continued to say.
He just wanted to see if Li Shiming planned to join Wu Qingshan's forces. Even if the possibility was very low, he wanted to give it a try.
After this try, he understood that it was impossible for such a talent to easily join Wuqingshan. Being able to keep Li Shiming in Wuqingshan was the limit.
"I will consider it!" Li Shiming felt relieved and said with a smile.
These few short sentences were actually testing. Ancestor Yu was testing Li Shiming's limits, and Li Shiming was responding in his own way.
"Master Li, given your level of alchemy, do you plan to publicly refine the fourth-grade elixir?" Ancestor Yu asked the question he was most concerned about.
"Of course, I still lack some cultivation resources and need the reward for refining the fourth-grade elixir!" Li Shiming said truthfully.
There is no need to hide it, he just shows what he wants.
Ancestor Yu laughed. The first time he saw Li Shiming, he realized that Li Shiming's realm had reached the level of a great elder.
The cultivation resources Li Shiming mentioned are the only resources for promotion to Nascent Soul.
When Patriarch Yu knew that Li Shiming had needs, he became more confident about keeping Li Shiming.
"Master Li, I know many Nascent Soul cultivators, and Wu Qingshan is also not well-known. I will use Wu Qingshan's name as a guarantee to take over the alchemy business for Master Li. What do you think?" Patriarch Yu asked tentatively. .
He had selfish motives in asking this. If Li Shiming handed over the alchemy affairs to Wu Qingshan, then Wu Qingshan would gain a lot of favors.
These are all favors from the ancestor of Yuanying. As for the reward for alchemy, he will not reach out, otherwise he will have a grudge with Li Shiming.
"Then please leave it to Ancestor Yu, I will be more relaxed!" Li Shiming did not refuse and replied with a smile.
He has skills, but he doesn't know the Yuan Ying Ancestor from Dong Qi Continent. Even if he wants to spread his reputation, he still needs the cooperation of Ancestor Yu in front of him.
It would be better to leave these matters to Wu Qingshan. His interests will not be affected anyway, and he can make more friends with the Nascent Soul ancestors.
"Okay, Master Li is a distinguished guest of Wu Qingshan. If you have any needs, feel free to ask. As long as Wu Qingshan can do it, we will definitely satisfy you!" Patriarch Yu promised with a smile.
It seemed that he had not promised anything, but his meaning was very clear. Wu Qingshan would protect Li Shiming's interests.
Ancestor Yu left after not staying long. Li Shiming had long since run out of the spiritual objects he wanted to photograph. If not for waiting for Ancestor Yu, he would have left long ago.
After Ancestor Yu left, he followed him and left the auction house.
Five days later, Ancestor Yu came to visit, and also an Ancestor Yuan Ying came with him. Li Shiming met the guests in the hall.
"This is fellow Taoist Sang Feng. He is here to seek elixirs!" Patriarch Yu introduced Li Shiming.
Patriarch Sang Feng looked at Li Shiming and showed suspicion towards Patriarch Yu.
You can't blame Patriarch Sang Feng. Judging from Li Shiming's age, he is already a genius-level monk at this stage. It is really an exaggeration to be able to be an alchemy master who can refine fourth-grade elixirs.
"Fellow Daoist Sang Feng, if you hadn't made good friends with me, I wouldn't have brought you here. The fourth-grade demon pill I got from the last mission has been refined into three fourth-grade spiritual pills!" Patriarch Yu was proud. He took out the jade bottle and showed it to Patriarch Sang Feng for inspection.
The reason why I checked with Patriarch Sang Feng now is to make the favor a reality, and to make it a favor in front of Li Shiming.
"Fellow Daoist Yu, how come you have three fourth-grade elixirs in your hands?" Patriarch Sang Feng asked directly when he discovered the problem.
From this point, Li Shiming understood that the relationship between Patriarch Sangfeng and Patriarch Yu was very close, otherwise this kind of inquiry would be in the nature of questioning.
"Master Li had trouble auctioning something, so he used this fourth-grade elixir as a spiritual stone!" Patriarch Yu replied as if he was showing off.
No matter how much high-grade spiritual stones are spent, it is not easy to buy a fourth-grade spiritual elixir with high-grade spiritual stones.
Even in front of Li Shiming, he couldn't help but feel proud.
"Master Li, don't be offended. Please make elixir for me, Master!" Patriarch Sang Feng no longer hesitated. He bowed to apologize to Li Shiming and placed a jade box on the table.
Li Shiming took the jade box and opened it to find a fourth-grade demon pill.
"Take it after ten days. My reward should preferably be adult resources. The adult resources that satisfy me can be used as a reward for refining pills many times!" Li Shiming took this opportunity to express his request for reward.
"Master Li, Cheng Ying's resources have always been very tightly controlled by various forces. I have no preparation. This time I will use this box of fourth-grade spiritual tea as reward!" Patriarch Sang Feng shook his head and said.
He took out a small jade box, which contained twenty pieces of fourth-grade Ling tea leaves.
"I'll accept the reward this time!" Li Shiming nodded and said.
His ambiguous words made Patriarch Sang Feng feel that it would be difficult to make elixirs from Li Shiming next time if he couldn't get adult resources as payment.
But he was not in a hurry, everything had to wait until the results of Li Shiming's alchemy.
Similarly, Patriarch Yu is also waiting. Although Li Shiming has refined a batch of fourth-grade elixir for him, one batch cannot fully reflect Li Shiming's level of elixir refining.
Maybe he was just lucky and succeeded in getting three fourth-grade elixirs at once.
Li Shiming's heart moved slightly. In fact, some of his lions opened their mouths and asked for adult resources as payment.
At least in his opinion, taking adult resources as payment is too much.
But when he discovered the attitude of Patriarch Sang Feng, he suddenly realized that perhaps adult resources were not so rare in the East Qi Continent, or that it was not impossible for Patriarch Yuan Ying.
Ten days later, when Patriarch Sang Feng received two fourth-grade primary elixirs, his eyes were shining.
Having a stable alchemy master who can refine fourth-grade elixirs, and all of them are full of elixirs, will bring huge opportunities to his practice.
Even the eyes of Patriarch Yu who came with him were different. One time he was full of pills could be said to be luck, and two consecutive times of full pills was his true level.
"Master Li, I have contacted a plant of Ice Spirit Cistanche. I hope to use Ice Spirit Cistanche as a reward for opening the furnace three times!" Ancestor Sang Feng said excitedly.
He now regards Li Shiming as his hope, isn't it the adult resources? Although adult resources are precious, they can still be purchased in the Eastern Qi Continent as long as they have enough high-grade spiritual stones.
The resources of becoming a baby do not mean that the baby will become a baby, it just increases the probability.
Just like what he said, 'Ice Spirit Cistanche' is a fourth-grade elixir that grows in icebergs. It can be swallowed directly when a baby is born without the need for elixir making. It can increase the spirituality of the Nascent Soul during the condensation stage, and indirectly improve its growth. Infant success rate.
Although he hasn't really obtained the 'Ice Spirit Cistanche' yet, from this tone, 'Ice Spirit Cistanche' is already within his grasp.
"Okay, I agree!" Li Shiming suppressed the joy in his heart and nodded.
The Dong Qi Continent is indeed rich and powerful, but considering that there are two Nascent Soul Ancestors in Wuqing Mountain alone, this is still a casual cultivator force. It is expected that the number of Nascent Soul resources is much greater than that of the Beishu Continent.
Li Shiming relied on his own ability to obtain a lot of adult resources in the Beishu continent. If he relies on his alchemy ability, he will also show off his skills in the Eastern Qi continent.
"Wait for me for a while, and I will bring the 'Ice Spirit Cistanche'!" Ancestor Sang Feng said while also suppressing his excitement.
In his opinion, he was taking advantage, and he was even thinking about how to get more adult resources.
Ancestor Yu didn't say anything at the side, but he was also thinking about how to obtain adult resources.
He has more channels, but the adult resources he obtains are all prepared for the big auction.
But even the big auction was to serve him, to gain more benefits for him and another Nascent Soul Ancestor, and to find cultivation resources.
Now that a better opportunity is in front of him, he naturally wants to give priority to paying Li Shiming's alchemy reward.
Li Shiming's request for alchemy allowed him to resume his quiet life of cultivation.
At the same time, his reputation also spread to a certain extent.
But what he didn't know was that his imagined idea of spreading the reward request came to nothing. Both Patriarch Sang Feng and Patriarch Yu were silently collecting Cheng Ying resources.
At least until they get a sufficient amount of adult resources, they will not tell Li Shiming's request for remuneration for alchemy.
Even Li Shiming's external elixir refining matters have been suppressed, and everything will wait until they refine their fourth-grade elixir refining materials into a fourth-grade elixir.
The period of time for the ancestor of Yuanying was a bit long. Two months had passed. During this period, Li Shiming was also refining elixirs for the late-stage Jindan monks, thereby obtaining some high-grade spiritual stones.
On this day, Li Shiming checked his cave abode and found that the eight fourth-grade formation flags had already been placed in the cave abode.
Eight fourth-grade formation flags plus 365 third-grade formation flags formed a complex formation to protect his cave.
This is a brand-new formation designed by IBMz15, the natal magic weapon, based on the cave formation after analyzing and studying all the formation knowledge he has obtained so far.
Because this formation uses the fourth-grade formation flag, even if it is attacked by the Nascent Soul Ancestor, it is enough to withstand several attacks, enough for Li Shiming to react and respond.
He walked out of the cave, leaving his clone Li Yuanba in the cave and taking Venerable Huijing away in the computer room.
He was invited by Yang Fu, a monk in the late Jindan period, to attend a small gathering. It was said that a gourd of fourth-grade spiritual spring water would appear in this small gathering.
This is what Yang Fu told him. Using the fourth-grade spiritual spring water to brew the fourth-grade spiritual tea can maximize the effect of the fourth-grade spiritual tea.
He had some fourth-grade spiritual tea in his hand and was in need of fourth-grade spiritual spring, so Li Shiming decided to participate in this small gathering.
The party was held in a teahouse on the mountainside. Li Shiming was now quite famous in Wuqing Mountain. After entering the teahouse, many monks he knew and didn't know greeted him.
After sitting down, he realized that something was wrong with this gathering. Among the monks who came, only Jiang Nan was a late-stage Jindan monk, and the rest were all early-stage Jindan monks.
It's not that he has any prejudice against the early and middle Golden Core monks, but that the late Golden Core monks are almost in the same circle as the early and middle Golden Core monks due to their resources and strength.
The late-stage Jindan monks formed their own circle and never brought the early-stage Jindan monks to communicate with each other. This gathering made him feel very hasty.
Especially when he communicated with Jiang Nan, he found that Jiang Nan, like him, came over at short notice from Yang Fu.
