Chapter 144
" It's just a pity that he mixed his sword intent with the Li Water sword essence. It looks like there are some changes, but in fact, the sword essence is mixed and it's already useless." It was rare for Xu Shan to say so much.
The expressions of the three changed.
"Junior Brother, are you saying that Li Ming has already been crippled?" Pei Xuan had always been expressionless, but at this moment, he was terrifyingly gloomy. As a sword cultivator (), he was very clear about the consequences of mixing sword intent.
Xu Shan did not say a word, but the three people who were familiar with him knew very well. The three of them were also silent.
The four of them looked depressed. It would have been fine if they did not know about Li Ming's talent, but now they knew that it would be extremely difficult for him to improve his Ice Avenue Sword Art. This was undoubtedly a huge blow to the four of them, who had always regarded the inheritance of their sects as their duty.
Box
"It's my fault. I didn't notice him," Pei Xuan said in a deep voice. Among the four of them, Shi Fengrong was the one with the heaviest heart. A moment ago, she was still happy about Li Ming's talent, but now she knew that Li Ming's [Ice Avenue Sword Scripture] could no longer improve.
"Senior Brother, is there really no way?" She looked at Xu Shan and bit her lower lip.
"The only way is to purify your sword intent again. However, he didn't comprehend the Li Water sword intent or the Ice Avenue sword essence, so we
can't guide him on how to advance." Xu Shan muttered to himself.
The Divine Hall fell silent again.
Just as everyone was feeling despair and self-blame, Xu Shan suddenly said," He was able to comprehend the Ice Avenue Sword Intent by himself. This means that he is very talented. It is not impossible to recast the sword intent."
Shi Feng Rong revealed a disappointed expression, suddenly raising her head, her phoenix eyes flashing:
Pei Xuan and Yang Li's hearts moved. They were very clear that Xu Shan was usually silent, but once he spoke, there would definitely be a solution. Their gazes landed on Xu Shan, waiting for him to continue.
"With his talent, the more sword scriptures he understands, the more likely he will be able to refine them. "It's just that…" Xu Shan was deep in thought.
"But what?" Yang Li couldn't help but ask.
"He doesn't seem to be interested in cultivating the sword," Xu Shan said.
The three of them looked at each other. They were so focused on Li Ming's talent that they forgot the most important point.
Li Ming was talented, but in the sect, he was a model of not doing his job properly. He only had one hobby, and that was to earn Spiritual Crystals.
When did he take sword practice seriously?
However, it was this person who had no interest in the Tao of the sword that had astonishing talent!
When Xu Shan said this, the three of them were immediately stunned. If Li Ming wasn't interested in the way of the sword, then it would be unnecessary for them to stay.
As sword cultivator (), the four of them knew very well how difficult it was to cultivate the way of the sword. The higher one went, the more dangerous it was. Without sufficient willpower, it was almost impossible to cultivate.
In other words, unless Li Ming was willing to practice the sword himself, no one could force him out.
The three of them couldn't help but recall what Li Ming had said before. He was willing to be smashed to death by Spiritual Crystals.
Pei Xuan immediately felt a headache.
What a troublemaker…
Li Ming naturally did not know how much the sect master and the others thought of him. He was immersed in his own medicine bucket, cheering and rejoicing that he had escaped death.
And the demonic pattern on his body hadn't been discovered by the sect sect master and the others, which made him even more surprised and happy. However, upon closer inspection, he was shocked to discover that the demonic pattern had disappeared under his skin without a sound.
Thank goodness…
The demonic pattern hidden under his skin greedily absorbed the medicinal properties and Restore Li Ming's body at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He had discovered many benefits ot demonic pattern. They could absorb spiritual energy faster and strengthen his body faster. The cultivation speed of the [Titan Seal] was so fast because of them.
For the next few days, he had been soaking in the medicine. This battle had greatly improved his status in the sect. With his current alchemy skills, he already had a certain understanding of the medicinal properties of the medicinal liquid. He knew that many of them were extremely precious medicinal herbs.
Li Ming subconsciously converted it into Spiritual Crystals in his mind, which shocked him. This bucket of medicine was not cheap!
This isn't the style of our sect!
Li Ming thought so, but on second thought, he threw this matter out of his mind. This time, he had gained a lot.
300 pieces of Third Grade Spiritual Crystals was a huge sum of money to him. The reason why he was so generous was not because he had great confidence in himself, but because he had made up his mind to use up all these Third Grade Spiritual Crystals before the tablet spirit woke up.
If the tablet spirit woke up, he would not have a single Spiritual Crystal left.
The odds of Li Ming winning were 1 to 300, which meant that he would have to pay more than 90,000 pieces of Third Grade Spiritual Crystals.
Heavens!
Li Ming felt as if countless Spiritual Crystals were flying above his head, and his soul was about to float.
One Spiritual Crystal of the Fourth Stage was equivalent to 500 Spiritual Crystals of the Third Stage. In other words, one Spiritual Crystal of the Fourth Stage was equivalent to 180 Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth Stage!
Oh my god!
What an enormous amount of wealth!
It was said that Li Ying Feng had specially invited Eldest Shixiong to accompany her in order to get such a large sum of money. Fortunately, Li Ming asked her to bet on him, so he didn't attract anyone's attention.
On the contrary, in the gambling den where Li Zhengxuan had placed his bet, the waiter looked at Li Zhengxuan with excitement.
Li Ying Feng's hands trembled as she handed the spirit crystal to Li Ming.
At this moment, he completely threw the entrance jade slip of Kun Lun out of his mind. 180 pieces of Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth Grade were a huge fortune for him.
With such a large sum of money in hand, Li Ming did not need to fight with his life on the line. It was just a jade slip from Kun Lun. He only needed to keep an eye on the owner of the jade slip and buy it.
He was rich! He was rich!
He was unprecedentedly rich. Li Ming was like a real tycoon. He couldn't wait to go to East Floating to buy things. With such a large sum of money, he could completely plunder all the magic treasure shops in East Floating.
The big casinos were the ones who made a lot of money like him. They couldn't wait to have more of these kinds of gambling games every day.
Divine Will Hall was dead silent.
"It's over! This time, this kid is really dead." " I'm not sure." Yang Li revealed a helpless expression." Now that this guy has made a fortune, I even suspect that he's going to laze around and wait for death in the future, let alone practice his sword."
"Why don't we just snatch the Spiritual Crystals from his hands?" Shi Feng Rong had a face full of anger. She was both angry and sad about Li Ming's lack of progress!
"It's inappropriate!" Pei Xuan shook his head." These things were all rightfully obtained by him. What's the difference between us snatching them and bandits?" At that time, don't let him join any other sect." The three of them were stunned..
Chapter 145
That's right, an outstanding genius like Li Ming was the target of all the major factions fighting to rope him in.
Putting everything else aside, if he went too far and chased Li Ming away with reason, he would probably not let go of Tian Song Zi, who was an expert who had a relationship with Divine Will Sect Sect.
"What should we do?" Shi Feng Rong revealed a worried expression. Just now, they were still calculating. Since Li Ming was also a greedy person, they would use benefits to tempt him. However, Li Ming had suddenly made a fortune. Even Pei Xuan () and the others envied him for having so many Spiritual Crystals.
The current Li Ming had become the richest man in Divine Will Sect!
He wanted to rope her in, but with his meager wealth, it was simply impossible.
Pei Xuan couldn't help but rub his aching eyebrows.
In the next few days, Li Ming walked as if he was walking on cotton. There was only one question in his heart.
How was he going to spend it?
However, he quickly threw this question to the back of his mind. Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan's match was just around the corner. Li Zhengxuan's opponent was a sword cultivator named Zuo Lin. He was a pretty strong sword cultivator and could be ranked in the middle of the list of experts.
Having tasted the sweetness, Li Ming was just about to let Li Fengying place a bet, but the frightened Li Ying Feng waved her hand desperately. She felt that her heart could no longer withstand such a big bet.
Li Ming had no choice but to lead Lin Xue to a few big gambling dens to place their bets.
The current Li Ming was already an influential figure in East Floating. The workers in the gambling den recognized him with a glance.
After going to two gambling houses, Li Ming had to ask Xue Lin Xue to place a bet for him.
Li Ming believed that the person who could win the most was none other than Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan (Li)! Therefore, he did not stand on ceremony and directly bet a large sum of money on his senior brother. However, he also restrained himself to avoid unnecessary trouble.
However, he brought Lin Xue to all the gambling dens in East Floating City and bet on Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan (Li) winning.
But in the gambling dens, Li Zhengxuan's winning rate was extremely low. They were even more confident in Li Zhengxuan because the gambling dens were all local forces. Moreover, the news of the phenomenon of heaven and earth when Li Zhengxuan foundation establishment realm also spread like wildfire.
As expected, Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan (Li) defeated Zuo Lin and won the first round.
In this battle, the strength that Li Zhengxuan had displayed had caught everyone's attention. And in this battle, Li Zhengxuan's ranking had risen even higher, steadily squeezing into the top ten. It was as if he was going to fight for the championship.
Although the odds weren't high, Li Ming's foundation was so strong that he won another ten pieces of Fourth-grade Spiritual Crystals.
" With Spiritual Crystals, it's much easier to earn Spiritual Crystals." Li Ming sighed.
Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan had won. He was no longer interested in the following matches.
Although he had not recovered from his injuries, he was still thinking about how to spend Spiritual Crystals!
For Li Ming, there was a very serious problem in front of him. How could he spend so many Spiritual Crystals?
For him, it was not an exaggeration to describe it as serious. If he did not use up all these Spiritual Crystals before the tablet spirit woke up, he would not get even a single one.
Originally, his original intention was to not let the 300 pieces of Third Grade Spiritual Crystals fall into the hands of the tablet spirit (). Now, it seemed that the situation had not improved and he had to spend more money.
He had to spend it! Before the tablet spirit ( ) awakens!
Li Ming would definitely fly into a rage if the tablet spirit ( ) got his hands on so many Spiritual Crystals. In order to prevent the worst outcome from happening, Li Ming made a decisive move.
However, before he could leave, he was summoned by the Sect Master to the Divine Hall.
During this period of time, everyone was paying attention to him. He had to be cautious and decided to keep a low profile. It would be troublesome if he made the sect master and the others unhappy.
"Little Ming." Yang Kai saw this scene and suddenly smiled. "I heard you say that you don't plan to participate in the next competition?"
"Sect Master, it's not that I don't want to, but I can't do it. As you can see, my injuries have yet to recover. I don't know who I'll meet in the next round, but it'll definitely be a Golden Core expert."
"If you lose, then you lose. If you get injured again, it will add insult to injury. It will have a huge impact on your future cultivation. I think that this Sword Test Conference is a form of training for me. I have gained a lot this time. If I hurt my foundation because I want to win, wouldn't I be neglecting the essentials and pursuing the trifles?"
The Sect Leader gave Li Ming a meaningful smile. Li Ming suddenly had a bad feeling.
"You're very thoughtful. Very good. But now, the situation has changed. For some reason, one person has forfeited. Therefore, one person will have a bye in this round."
"Senior Tian Song Zi is very appreciative of your performance, so he gave this spot to you. You must work hard and not disappoint him. As for your injuries, don't worry. Your master won't let you fight while you're injured.' Li Ming was dumbfounded. He still wanted to participate?
How could they fight?
The battle between him and An Yang was so dazzling and successful in everyone's eyes. However, no one knew how much effort he had put in and how lucky he was to obtain the final victory.
He had heard about An Yang's past battles from Fu Dong and figured out An Yang's weaknesses. In addition to the intense pressure that An Yang had felt from the bet, he had used all sorts of methods. It could be said that he had used all his strength to win by a narrow margin.
The gap between Foundation Establishment and Golden Core was too big. If it was any other contestant, he would have been finished long ago.
Other than yin fire bead, a killer move that could not be used in public, he used all the other methods.
The sect leader actually wanted him to compete? How could they compete?
He was at a loss. Did the sect leader really think that it would be easy for him to defeat a jindan xiuzhe?
It shouldn't be! He raised his head and looked at the sect leader, shaking his head in his heart.
Just as he was deep in thought, he heard the sect leader say with a smile,"You should be prepared."
Li Ming walked out of Divine Will Hall dejectedly. He had yet to come back to his senses.
A bye? How could such a thing happen?
This was the last thing Li Ming wanted to hear. When he heard this voice, his entire body froze. When did this guy wake up?
However, he quickly reacted. From the tablet spirit's voice, he could hear a trace of urgency. It needed yin beads. Without thinking, he took out five Yin Pearls and stuffed them into the tablet spirit's hand. The tablet spirit snatched them and disappeared without a trace.
Only then did Li Ming feel his heart thumping non-stop. Damn it, the tablet spirit () was about to wake up!
No! He had to spend all the Spiritual Crystals as soon as possible!
Li Ming felt his butt heat up and quickly urged Silly Bird. He felt his heart pounding and his mouth dry.
Before the competition, he hadn't even seen a single Spiritual Crystal of the Fourth Grade, let alone 190 Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth Grade. The thought that such a large sum of money might not be his made Li Ming feel extremely uncomfortable..
Chapter 146
With the thought of using up spirit crystals, Li Ming came to East Floating again.
This time, he wasn't looking blindly. Instead, he headed straight for the most high-end auction in East Floating, the floating Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion.
Hundred Treasures Island was the most upscale market in East Floating. The things sold here were the best and most expensive in East Floating.
The magical treasures sold here were all top-grade, and the materials used were all rare treasures.
The Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion was built with a small mountain as its main body. It was built with supreme magic power and could always float in the air. There were countless restrictions. No one had ever dared to cause trouble in the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion.
It was Li Ming's first time coming to the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion. If he didn't have 190 Fourth-grade Spiritual Crystals with him, he wouldn't have dared to come to such a high-class place.
This mountain was not very big, only about 20 acres in size. There were birds singing and flowers blooming in it. Li Ming couldn't understand the sound of nature, but these spiritual herbs and flowers gave him a fright as he was proficient in alchemy.
Heavens!
These spiritual herbs and flowers were all rare items that he had seen on the jade slips.
Fourth-grade butterfly reed, fourth-grade black mushroom, four-grade red fire lotus.
In fact, there was no need for too much ostentation. Those Tier 4 and 5 spiritual herbs were planted there. If one was not rich, they would have to walk carefully, afraid that they would accidentally step on them. That would not be worth it.
A place like the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion didn't need to worry about the number of people inside. When Li Ming arrived, only one person had arrived.
A steward wearing a black and golden silk robe came forward. His gaze was sharp. When he saw Li Ming, he immediately welcomed him warmly. You're an honored guest! That battle of yours made our East Floating City proud! That move, the Triple Chain, stunned me. It's my honor to be able to serve you today!"
The steward's tone was cordial and not flattering. The words he said made Li Ming feel a little proud, but it was not too exaggerated. He even controlled his voice very well so as not to disturb the guests who were choosing magical treasures not far away.
What shocked Li Ming even more was that this affable manager was actually a golden core xiuzhe!
Li Ming couldn't help but glance at the steward beside the other guest. That was right, that steward was also a golden core xiuzhe! There were more than two similar stewards. There were two more standing beside them, both of whom were at the golden core stage.
A jindan xiuzhe was actually managing this place. This shocked Li Ming!
He thought about the arena below. Those golden core xiuzhe were fighting back and forth. How majestic was that? And even the manager of the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion was a golden core xiuzhe.
He wasn't sure who the owner of the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion was, but he must have some background.
Li Ming's handsome face also had an advantage. No matter what he thought, he would not show it.
"I'm here to see if there's anything suitable for me." Li Ming was shocked by the other party's cultivation and spoke more politely.
"Oh, please take a look. If you like it, I will introduce it to you in detail." The steward smiled, his face neither cold nor warm.
Li Ming was dazzled by what he saw.
He had quite a few good things on him, but only the jade slip on his waist could be placed on the shelf of the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion. The rest could not be placed. It was really good stuff! Li Ming swallowed hard, and his eyes lit up. He wanted to get all these things in one go, but every time he saw the price of these magical treasures, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on him.
"This flying sword is a Water Soul Crystal taken from the depths of the sea. Each Water Soul Crystal is at least fourth-grade. This flying sword was formed by the combination of the Seven Armature Swords and had a myriad of transformations. The Big Dipper sword that was carried by the body of the sword could easily set up a Big Dipper Sword Formation. If there's someone like Young Master Li who's proficient in formations, then it's even more ever-changing!"
Li Ming looked at the price and saw that it was 600 Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth Grade. His heart skipped a beat and he quickly looked at the other item.
"This Heavenly Ice Woven Garment is made from sixteen thousand Heavenly
Ice Silks. It is extremely tough, and it will be difficult to destroy even if you fly. It can also absorb the spiritual qi of the world. There were a total of seven formations on it, each of them had their own magical uses and were all very useful. "Moreover, we specially tested it. Its defense is very strong…"
[Price: 500 Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth Stage!] Li Ming left.
Li Ming walked around the shelves one by one. Every magical treasures was top-grade, but the price made him feel extremely desperate.
In the end, he was a little numb. He might as well look at the price first.
The steward did not rush him, nor did he show any impatience. He was full of professionalism.
Out of the corner of his eye, Li Ming saw that one of the items actually cost 100 Fourth-grade Spiritual Crystals. He couldn't help but stop.
An iron ring-like ring was placed there quietly.
' This is a half-damaged Dimensional Ring." Seeing Li Ming looking in that direction, the manager explained in a professional manner." Back then, the refiner tried to forge a fourth-grade Dimensional Ring. Unfortunately, he failed in the end.'
"This dimensional ring is a little bigger than an ordinary third-grade dimensional ring, but it's also a little smaller than an ordinary fourth-grade dimensional ring. Since the creator and the owner are very familiar with each other, he entrusted us to auction it."
"Dimensional ring!"
A strong sense of joy surged in Li Ming's heart! He had never thought that the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion would sell a Dimensional Ring!
Dimensional Rings were used to store items.
His Hundred Treasures Pouch had a similar function and could be used to store things.
The Dimensional Ring was a higher-level storage magical treasures. Its storage space was much larger than the Hundred Treasures Pouch, and it did not carry any weight. In this aspect, it was far superior to the Hundred Treasure Pouch.
However, it was much more difficult to refine a dimensional ring than Hundred Treasures Pouch. It was very rare to see it on the market, so its asking
price was very high.
If it wasn't for this unexpected fortune, Li Ming would have spent countless years to get a Dimensional Ring.
The Dimensional Ring was a very useful treasure. Li Ming took out the Spiritual
Crystal without hesitation." I'll buy it!"
After obtaining the Dimensional Space Ring, Li Ming couldn't bear to put it down anymore.
" Young Master Li, you really have good eyes. This ring is nine cubic meters, which is twice the size of an ordinary third-grade ring. Moreover, its price is only one-third of a third-grade Dimensional Ring."
"The things hidden in the dimensional ring will never rot. Even after a hundred years, they will remain intact. Moreover, it's very easy to pick it up. With a thought, it'll be in your hands." " Thank you," the manager praised before handing a jade slip to Li Ming." This is a jade slip that records the dimensional ring's restrictions. We'll give it to you for free." Young Master Li, you're indeed a formidable young man. You're the first customer to buy a Dimensional Space Ring with a Foundation Establishment cultivation base after opening the shop for so long."
That was awesome!
Chapter 147
After putting everything in the Hundred Treasures Pouch into the dimensional ring, Li Ming felt his body lighten. His Hundred Treasure Purse was filled with all kinds of messy things. If it wasn't for the fact that he had already made some progress in the [Vajra Seal], he would probably have been squashed by these messy things.
However, now that he had put it into his Dimensional Ring, it was weightless. This feeling was simply too great! The nine cubic meters of space was empty. These things only occupied a small corner in this space. In such a large space, countless formation plate could be placed.
It would be even better if he had the Dimensional Space Ring!
Although he knew this, Li Ming still felt that the Dimensional Space Ring was much better than Hundred Treasures Pouch. No wonder it was so expensive.
What made Li Ming the most satisfied was the Dimensional Space Ring. It was simple and unadorned, just like an iron ring. There was nothing special about it. Those who didn't know would never have thought that this seemingly ordinary iron ring was actually a Dimensional Ring worth 100 Fourth-grade Spiritual Crystals.
Li Ming knew very well that his current cultivation was not high enough. If he acted too ostentatiously, it would be tantamount to courting death. Even though the security of East Floating was very good, but murder, robbery, and disappearance were still common occurrences.
He had not reached the point where he would lose his life for a Dimensional Ring. This simple and unadorned ring was to his liking.
A hundred Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth Grade was definitely not a loss!
Li Ming muttered to himself in satisfaction. He had 90 Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth Grade left.
Let's go!
The manager was quite surprised at Li Ming's wealth. It was the first time he had seen a zhuji xiuzhe spend a hundred fourth-grade ling crystals without even blinking. Little did he know that Li Ming was fighting against the tablet spirit () for time. If it weren't for the tablet spirit, he would definitely hide the 100 Fourth-grade Spiritual Crystals in his pocket and not be willing to buy the Dimensional Ring.
But now, it was better to use it up as soon as possible so that the Spiritual Crystals would be his.
Although the tablet spirit ( ) always took out some cultivation technique manuals in the name of equivalent exchange, Li Ming was so angry that he spat out blood when he thought of what he took out.
From [Fetal Breathing Spiritual Technique to demonic pattern and then to the yao cores, there were all side effects. As for something like [Fragrance Awareness], he wished he could kill the other party.
Spending it, that's right. If you spend it too late, you'll cry to death.
As Li Ming walked forward, he saw a five-colored pagoda. The five-colored pagoda had a total of fifth level, and each floor had a different color. Li Ming, who had a deep understanding of the five elements, recognized at a glance that this was a treasure with five elements, and each floor was of one element.
"This Five-colored Pagoda was created by a loose cultivator. At that time, this rogue cultivator wanted to refine an item that could strengthen his control over the five elements. In the end, during the process of his cultivation, he went berserk and his soul dissipated.
The design of this magic treasure was very exquisite. Although the materials of the fifth level pagoda were not the best, it was also very difficult to gather them.
Unfortunately, East Floating advocated the sword path and very few cultivators knew the five elements. Hence, no one cared about this treasure. I heard that Young Master Li also cultivates ling plants. I think this five-colored pagoda is very suitable for Young Master Li. If you are interested, we will also provide you with the jade slip left behind by the previous owner of the Five Colored Pagoda for free." The manager said.
Li Ming glanced at the price tag. It was 50 Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth
Grade. His heart skipped a beat." This thing is quite good. This is the price…'
" I'm sorry," the manager apologized." It's not that I don't want to, but we don't bargain here."
His words were polite, but his tone was firm. " It seems that I have no room to bargain," Li Ming muttered to himself. However, this five-colored pagoda was also very tempting to him. He could only say," Can I take a look?"
"No problem." The manager took out the five-colored pagoda and handed it to Li Ming.
As soon as he held the five-colored pagoda in his hand, Li Ming immediately felt a dense power of the five elements rush toward him. As a ling plant farmer, he was very familiar and sensitive to the power of the five elements.
Even the sword technique he cultivated later had five attributes. From the top of the tower to the base, there were metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. When he injected his spiritual energy into the pagoda, the five-colored light immediately flourished. Li Ming felt five extremely pure balls of five elements Qi in his hand.
With a thought, the Little Art of Cloud and Rain quietly circulated. He felt the surrounding water vapor suddenly gather towards his palm.
It was too fast!
Li Ming was shocked!
It was more than twice as fast as when he used the Little Art of Cloud and Rain with his bare hands.
What a powerful treasure!
When Li Ming heard this, he knew how precious this treasure was. Perhaps to others, this item was not very useful, but to him, it was very beneficial.
"This five-colored pagoda suits you very well."
Li Ming turned his head when he heard the voice. Only then did he notice that someone was standing behind him.
It was that person! Li Ming was a little surprised.
In front of him stood a man wearing a black hood. It was the man who had cut a cold magnet at his place before. This person called Su had a very mysterious background, but he was very powerful. In the previous battles, he had easily won and entered the top ten of each ranking.
Moreover, the bet between him and An Yang had also put An Yang in a desperate situation. It was also a great help to him.
Of course, they didn't have much of a relationship, and Li Ming didn't think that he was betting to help him.
"I'll buy it for you." "I only need you to help me with one thing," Su said concisely.
The steward beside him also tactfully made way for them, afraid that he would disturb their conversation.
Li Ming's heart trembled. Fifty pieces of Fourth Grade Spiritual Crystals was not a small sum of money. It was a total of twenty-five thousand pieces of Third Grade Spiritual Crystals. It was not easy to give 50 Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth Grade for each favor.
"There's also this. There's a total of thirty-six Blazing Flame Pills in the An
Family Castle. Refine something for me."
Refining things?
Li Ming was relieved. He was most afraid of fighting. Wait, that was not right. He remembered that he had almost lost his life trying to refine the Ink-colored Lotus Seed. He immediately asked," What do you want to refine?"
"Let's refine these cold magnets into a sword embryo," Su said in a deep voice.
"I won't." " This thing is a fourth-grade weapon," Li Ming said resolutely." It takes a lot of effort to cut it. I don't have the ability to make it into a sword embryo."
"You can do it." "You can refine the Ink-Black Lotus Seed and use this five-colored pagoda. You can do it." Su's tone was as calm as ever.
It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned the Ink-Black Lotus Seed, but the moment he did, the anger in his heart burned. If this bastard hadn't leaked the news, he wouldn't have such a business. He almost died here!
Chapter 148
Su's casual words immediately made Li Ming's anger disappear without a trace.
"Then, what about my second round?" Li Ming asked tentatively.
" In the second round, you will be a bye."
Li Ming's heart skipped a beat. This guy really had some skills. He even knew such a confidential matter. He had just received the news from the sect master, and this guy already knew.
However, this did not hinder his interest in this proposal. The tablet spirit would wake up soon. Once he woke up, the Spiritual Crystals would be snatched away. At that time, he would no longer be able to buy the basic jade slips of Kunlun. If he wanted to obtain this jade slip, he had to compete. In the end, only one hundred xiuzhe could enter the sword test without any rules. Even though these one hundred xiuzhe would receive rewards, the probability of them getting the jade scroll would be greatly reduced if they were ranked lower.
However, Li Ming felt that there must be something hidden behind this. "Can you tell me how to refine this sword embryo?"
"On each sword blank, use Moonlight Flowing Death to carve a formation. There are a total of four formations.
This was Moonlight Flowing Death.
Li Ming shook his head repeatedly. With my current strength, I can't use the
Moonlight Flowing Death." He was not being modest. Although the Moonlight Flowing Death was also a third-grade material, it was an extremely rare material with unique characteristics. It could be said to be a very high-grade material.
Although they were both Rank-3, the difference was like heaven and earth.
The so-called level was actually a more general term. Sometimes he said it horizontally, and sometimes he said it vertically.
The reason there was such a vague classification was not because the xiuzhe were negligent, but because the physical properties of many objects were extremely complicated.
Take stalagmite fire for example. It was a second-grade fire seed. The reason it was called a second-grade fire seed was because of its special nature.
The same stalagmite fire, if nurtured for a long time and grew in a place with abundant spiritual qi, would evolve into a flame called the Icy Purple Fire. If it was further developed, it would evolve into a flame called the Yin Wave Fire.
Second stalagmite fire, Third Grade Ice-purple Fire, Fourth Grade Icy Flame. Due to the difference in level, its characteristics would also be very different. In the eyes of xiuzhe, it was another type.
Some things, though of better quality, remained the same. Take the third-grade and fourth-grade fire dragon grass as an example. Although the color and density of the spiritual qi were different, it was easy to distinguish them.
Moonlight Flowing Death was the second.
In fact, the latter was more likely than the former.
This classification had existed for thousands of years.
Moonlight Flowing Death was a top-grade material in the truest sense of the word. It was extremely difficult to collect and refine. It was not a material that a Foundation Establishment cultivator like Li Ming could refine.
Li Ming believed that he might not even be able to refine a first first-grade second-grade Moonlight Flowing Death, let alone a third-grade one.
I can't accept this order!
Whether it was refining pills or artifact refinement, there was a certain risk. This kind of danger not only meant failure, but also danger!
The ling power was sucked dry, the soul was sucked away, the ling power reversed, and the poison invaded the body.
The light ones would be severely injured, and the heavy ones would have their souls destroyed. Refining things that were beyond his ability was even riskier.
Just like how demon beasts needed cultivators to hunt them, these spiritual herbs that had lived for hundreds of thousands of years were not so easy to kill.
Everything in the world had its own way of survival. These seemingly weak creatures hid fatal dangers under their fragile bodies.
Although Li Ming was usually in a hurry, deep down, he was a very careful person. But many times, when he did not have enough chips in his hands, he had no choice. Low-level xiuzhe, if they didn't risk their lives, what else could they do?
The other party's request was not worth the risk.
"Sorry, I've been quite busy recently." Li Ming's face was blank.
"Brother Li." Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded from behind him. He was startled and turned his head to look. A white-robed man had appeared behind him at some point.
Li Ming only felt that this person was very familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
Very quickly, Li Ming remembered where he had seen this person before. Aiyo, wasn't this person Lin Qian? There weren't many people who were so handsome.
Brother Fat Sheep, a rich young master? This guy was still here?
"Hey, Lin Qian, why haven't you left yet?" Li Ming had a good impression of this handsome man in front of him. He was in a good mood when he saw him.
"Haha, the Sword Test Conference is so interesting. If I leave like this and miss
Brother Li's wonderful performance, I will regret it for the rest of my life." Lin Qian smiled. His attitude was gentle and his tone was humble. The relationship between the two of them had inadvertently become closer.
Lin Qian's words made Li Ming a little embarrassed. Hao Ran, on the other hand, was speechless.
Lin Qian's knowledge was much higher than his. Although his little trick was a little clever, it depended on the target.
However, with his handsome face, he would never blush.
"Luck is also a kind of ability." Lin Qian laughed. His gaze fell on Su, who was wearing a black veil and a bamboo hat. He smiled," I didn't expect to meet you here. Please send my regards to Zhenren Wan."
"Who are you?" Su's voice turned cold. A cold light flashed across her eyes through her black veil.
His clothes fluttered in the wind as if he was ready to attack at any moment. Having her identity exposed by a stranger made her shocked and angry. The expressions of the stewards present changed.
Li Ming felt the temperature around him drop suddenly. He was shocked. This woman, who was already extremely mysterious, was even more mysterious in his eyes.
Lin Qian was unmoved. Smiling, he said," Junior Sister has never met me. It's normal that you don't recognize me."
"Brother Li, why aren't you interested in Junior Sister Su's suggestion at all?" he asked Li Ming. I heard that if you're a local, you'll get some other rewards if you enter the top ten."
"Hehe, this is a secret." Lin Qian chuckled.
"No matter how big the reward is, you have to be alive to enjoy it." He could barely refine the fourth-grade cold magnet, but to engrave a formation on the sword base, especially on the Moonlight Flowing Death, was not something he could do.
The two of them were familiar with each other, so Li Ming spoke more
casually.
Lin Qian admired Li Ming's nonchalance. Hearing this, he laughed out loud."
Brother Li, are you not confident?"
When Li Ming and Lin Qian were talking, Su did not say a word. No matter how stupid she was, she could tell that Lin Qian was helping her. From this point of view, Lin Qian did not seem to have any ill intentions..
Chapter 149
Li Ming smiled." There's nothing we can do about it. I'm only in the Foundation Establishment Stage now. When I reach the golden core Stage, you can come again. It's not difficult to offer a fair price."
The black gauze hat trembled slightly. How long would it take for Li Ming to reach the golden core stage? The path of cultivation was full of variables. No one knew how far they could go.
On the path of cultivation, there were too many strange things. Even the top heaven's favorite were not exempt.
"So this is Brother Li's concern. I have an idea that might be able to solve it.' Lin Qian was deep in thought.
"Tell me." Li Ming said lightly. Although Lin Qian was knowledgeable, cultivation was not something that could be solved so easily.
"Brother Li, your divine sense is very strong. Why don't you try the double-chain Fourfold Fire Formation (Fire)?"
Lin Qian's voice was like thunder, piercing through the sky. His entire body seemed to be frozen, not moving at all.
"Double Chain Fourfold Fire Formation (Fire)…"
Li Ming's eyes were dull and he seemed to have gone crazy as he muttered something. He sat down on the ground, took out a few Spiritual Crystals, and drew a talisman array on the ground.
Lin Qian beckoned to one of the managers. The manager immediately left and closed the door.
Su looked at Lin Qian in surprise, but she did not say anything. She understood that Li Ming was in a state of enlightenment. This realm was not something that could be reached easily. Once disturbed, it would be very difficult to enter this wonderful realm again.
Lin Qian suddenly waved at Su, then turned around and walked into another room.
Su hesitated for a moment before following him.
When Su entered the room, the sound in the room stopped abruptly. Her heart trembled. The other party's strength was really too strong.
"Don't worry, Junior Sister Su. It's just a hush." Lin Qian smiled. "Junior Sister, do you recognize this?" He took out a jade slip.
Su's gaze pierced through the black veil and caught sight of the jade token in Lin Qian's hand. Her body shook violently, and the calmness on her face vanished." Heart Lake Jade Token!"
Lin Qian smiled and generously handed the jade token to Su.
Su held the jade card. The lake on the jade card was like a lifelike picture scroll. It appeared and disappeared from time to time. When the breeze blew, the surface of the lake sparkled like a mirror.
She sensed a familiar aura from the jade token and the sect's unique restriction. She immediately understood that this was her sect's Heart Lake Jade Token!
However, in our sect, we have never heard of any elder taking in a disciple. However, this Heart Lake Jade Plate is genuine!
Only the core elders of the sect had the right to hold it. Her master also had one.
Even she and He Fangping, as the two most outstanding people in the younger generation of the sect, did not have the Heart Lake Jade Plate.
There was an iron rule in the sect, which was to look at the jade token as if it was a real person.
Su bowed and bowed again.
"Junior Sister, you're being too serious." Lin Qian returned the greeting,"Our ages aren't too far apart, so it's more appropriate to call us senior brother and sister." Besides, I haven't returned to the sect, so I don't have the right for you to call me Martial Uncle."
Su was speechless and could only remain silent.
The shock in her heart was too great. Ever since Senior Brother Lin appeared, she couldn't tell how deep he was.
The more she thought about it, the more shocked she became. Senior Brother Lin's cultivation was at least two realms above hers.
Which ancestor had taught such a terrifying person?
She was delighted. Fortunately, Senior Brother Lin was one of them! Seeing the bright lights outside, the stewards tactfully shifted their gazes away.
Li Ming opened his eyes and saw Su and Lin Qian.
"Congratulations, Brother Li!" "From now on, Brother Li's income will be greatly increased." Lin Qian laughed.
Lin Qian's words lifted Li Ming's spirits. He had just recovered from his shock.
Clasping his fists, he said," I still have to thank Brother Lin. If not for Brother
Lin's reminder, I would never have thought of this method."
"This is all Brother Li's own credit. I just casually said it. I didn't expect Brother
Li to actually do it. It really surprised me." Lin Qian smiled and shook his head.
Li Ming didn't say anything else. He lowered his head and savored the wonder just now. It was difficult for him to use words to describe his state just now, and it was also difficult for him to use words to describe what he understood. However, he felt as if a layer of window paper had been pierced through. Many blurry areas that he had not noticed before were now clear.
It felt so good!
He stood in place and pondered for a moment. When he calmed down, he raised his head.
Only then did he realize that four hours had passed.
Seeing the spirit crystal fragments all over the ground, he felt ashamed. He had run to someone else's shop to test the formation and was still not kicked out. This shop was really kind.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the door was tightly locked. He was stunned for a moment. Then, Lin Qian waved to a steward, signaling them to open the door. Only then did he realize.
However, he was more curious about Lin Qian's background.
From Lin Qian's words, he could guess that this young master was definitely someone with a powerful background.
However, from the current situation, this person's background seemed to be stronger than he had imagined. Seeing the manager being so polite to Lin Qian, Li Ming couldn't help but mutter to himself. Could it be that this Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion was opened by Lin Qian? However, when he first met Lin Qian, he did not seem to have been to East Floating at all.
Sensing Li Ming's gaze, Lin Qian smiled lightly, "Brother Li, do you think you can succeed this time?" If Brother Li agrees, this Five Colored Pagoda will be your reward."
"In addition to what Junior Sister promised you, I can add one more thing. In the future, if Brother Li comes here to shop again, he can get a 20% discount. How is it, Brother Li, are you satisfied with this condition?"
Just as everyone thought that this condition was enough to tempt Li Ming, he shook his head.
"Oh, Brother Li, if you have any worries, feel free to say it." Lin Qian cupped his fists.
"I accept this deal." "As for the reward, Brother Lin has already given it to me," Li Ming once again surprised everyone.
"I want to buy the Five-colored Pagoda." Li Ming pointed at the Five-colored
Pagoda again.
As he spoke, he took out a handful of Spiritual Crystals.
Everyone couldn't help but be moved. In their hearts, the expressionless Li Ming with a low cultivation level suddenly became open and aboveboard.
Even Su's face couldn't help but reveal a strange expression. The current Li Ming was not the person she remembered at all.
The current Li Ming didn't have the slightest bit of greed.
Was this his true face?
Master was right. One should not judge a book by its cover.
Just as she was overwhelmed with shock, she heard Li Ming's distressed voice.
"Don't forget to give me a discount!"
When Li Ming came back, he had gained a lot.
Apart from the five-colored pagoda, he also had a lot of materials. He had also used up all his Spiritual Crystals. After all, he had the Dimensional Ring now, so he didn't need to worry about the weight of the materials..
Chapter 150
The materials sold in the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion were of extremely high quality. Li Ming really could not think of where else he could buy these things.
Moreover, according to his estimation, he did not know when he would have to wait until the next time he wanted to come to the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion.
In any case, these materials were all useful to him.
Looking at the mountain of materials in the Dimensional Ring, Li Ming felt satisfied. He didn't feel the heartache he felt when he spent all these Spiritual Crystals.
At the same time, he heaved a sigh of relief. He no longer had any worries. Hehe, tablet spirit (), I will let you know what a pauper is.
In addition, there were four fourth-grade cold magnets, a bottle of Intense Fire Pills, a bottle of Moonlight Flowing Death, and a jade slip…This jade slip recorded the formations that were to be inscribed on the sword embryo.
Li Ming had just walked out of the Hundred Treasures Flying Pavilion when he heard the anxious voice of the tablet spirit ().
"Hahaha…" Li Ming laughed loudly.
"What are you laughing at?" The tablet spirit had just woken up from its meditation, and its reaction was clearly much slower.
"No…" " Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Li Ming tried to hold back his laughter." I just bought something and used up all my Spiritual Crystals."
"No more?" The tablet spirit said expressionlessly.
"No, I haven't." Li Ming said firmly.
Being able to toy with the tablet spirit (), Li Ming was very happy. He rode on Silly Bird's back and hummed a messy tune.
Silly Bird flapped its wings and stared at Li Ming. In the end, it couldn't hold it in anymore and cried out, trying to suppress Li Ming's voice.
Li Ming, who was originally in a good mood, flew into a rage and punched Silly Bird's head.
"Why are you shouting? Can't you hear that I'm singing?"
Silly Bird only felt dizzy and only reacted after a long time. She flew dejectedly.
Li Ming screamed and finally flew back to West Wind Courtyard. As soon as he landed, Silly Bird plunged into the ditch and vomited.
Li Ming cast a sidelong glance at the stupid bird and snorted." The biggest sin you've committed in your life is that you can't see my excellence…"
After returning to the hut, he carefully thought about the day's events. Slowly, he fell into deep thought.
There were too many suspicious points in this matter.
Taking Lin Qian's identity as an example, when he first met Lin Qian, he was just a foreigner and had no understanding of East Floating.
However, after meeting him today, he was very familiar with the owner of Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion.
What made Li Ming even more surprised was that she actually called him Junior Sister Su, but she didn't seem to know who Lin Qian was.
Su was a mystery to begin with. Now, there was an even more mysterious Lin Qian. Li Ming suddenly felt that this matter had become a little confusing.
Su was slightly better off, but that Lin Qian who always had a smile on his face was hard to figure out.
There seemed to be something hidden behind that warm smile, making Li Ming instinctively wary.
This was also the reason why he insisted on buying the Five-colored Pagoda. Although he had spent money to buy it, he also wanted to make himself feel better. The feeling of owing a favor was not good.
Moreover, owing a favor to a person of unknown origin was not only bad, but it was also life-threatening.
He had too many things to do and too many answers to look for!
Li Ming muttered to himself.
His gaze fell on the five-colored pagoda.
This was a half-finished five elements magical treasures, no wonder no one in East Floating wanted to buy it.
Thinking about it, Li Ming understood. Floating East was mainly a sword cultivator (). People who cultivated the five elements mainly refined pills and artifact refinement.
There was no cultivator in East Floating who could take out 50 Fourth-grade Spiritual Crystals to buy a magical treasures for refining pills artifact refinement weapons in the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion.
A half-finished product that wasn't fully formed could be sold for 50 Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth Stage, which showed its high quality.
Li Ming could not help but feel glad. If he had really succeeded in refining the five-colored pagoda, then wouldn't he be unable to control it with his meager cultivation?
After carefully reading the jade slip left behind by the rogue cultivator, Li Ming roughly understood the other party's intentions. He couldn't help but praise in his heart. This rogue cultivator was indeed ambitious!
This loose cultivator planned to refine the five-colored pagoda into one of the five elements
In the world, five balls of energy with five different attributes were continuously refined and finally transformed into five types of energy. Then, they transformed into each other in the five-colored pagoda, forming a small world that was stable and harmonious.
At that time, the power of the five elements would change on its own in the tower. As for what would happen, even the loose cultivator did not know.
Of course, this was only the creator's ultimate goal.
This loose cultivator was not an ignorant person. Before he achieved his final goal, this treasure still had many uses.
For example, the five-colored pagoda was a special vessel. Anything placed inside would be broken down into the power of the five elements in a very short period of time. Of course, if it was something higher than the five-colored pagoda, it would be impossible.
If it was used to activate the power of the five elements, the effect would be even better.
The five-colored pagoda was originally a treasure that was made for experimentation. The jade slip contained many artifact refinement 'guesses. However, this was not something Li Ming needed to consider. This magical treasures had already exceeded the scope of his current ability to refine.
Li Ming even doubted if he could refine it with his current cultivation.
It was to put the five elements into it.
Tilting his head and thinking for a while, Li Ming suddenly snapped his fingers. A milky white flame shot out from his fingertip and entered the five-colored pagoda.
The red area of the Five Elements Pagoda suddenly brightened up. The moment the stalagmite fire entered it, it was refined into a ball of flame, coiling around the second level of the five elements Pagoda. Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, with metal as the top and earth as the base.
Li Ming could clearly feel that the fire essence in the five-colored pagoda was becoming stronger.
After the red light on the fire floor disappeared, it became even redder.
This scene was beyond Li Ming's expectations.
The Stalagmite fire could increase the fire essence, this was not something that anyone would find strange. However, the Stalagmite fire was a yin fire, so it did not have any reaction in the tower.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Ming couldn't find any clues. He decided to stop thinking and continued to throw in all kinds of materials.
As soon as the materials were placed inside, they were immediately refined into the power of the five elements. However, the color of the pagoda did not change at all.
Could it be that his level was too low?
Li Ming keenly grasped the crux of the problem.
The things he had thrown in earlier were all first-grade items, but the five-colored pagoda did not move at all.
After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and threw a third-grade
Greenwood Incense into the hole. The moment he threw the Greenwood Incense, the green light on the surface of the wood layer immediately flourished, and the Wood Essence Qi became even denser.
Li Ming wasn't happy that his guess had been confirmed. Instead, he took a deep breath..
Chapter 151
Oh my god!
Throwing in a third-grade Greenwood Incense only increased the Wood Essence Qi in the pagoda by a little. How many high-quality materials would he have to throw in to fill it up?
Most importantly, he had to have good materials.
Li Ming estimated that when the five elements Essence inside reached a certain level, third-grade materials would not be enough. Then, he would need fourth-grade, fifth-grade…
As if someone had poured a bucket of cold water on his head, Li Ming's excitement immediately dissipated. With his current poverty, he would not take out so many precious things.
Li Ming quickly gave up on the idea of continuing to refine it. He began to study the other uses of the Five-colored Pagoda.
As he studied the five-colored pagoda, he discovered a very useful method.
Li Ming discovered that he could extract the power of the five elements from the five-colored pagoda for his own use!
This made him overjoyed.
People who cultivated the five elements often had to nurture their own five elements essence.
For example, a fire-type cultivator would use a special method to convert his spiritual energy into fire-type spiritual power at the beginning before he could use it.
And when his cultivation level reached a high level, this spiritual energy would naturally turn into fire element essence.
The fire element essence was much purer than the fire element spiritual energy. As it was continuously refined, it would become purer and purer. In the end, it would become the origin of the fire element. Every move it made would be filled with the aura of fire.
Li Ming was still stuck at the stage where he could transform his spiritual energy into five different types of Spiritual Energy.
However, as long as there was the power of the five elements in the five-colored pagoda, he could extract them. This way, he could cast all kinds of five-element spells at will.
The power of this move was much stronger than the five elements Art that he displayed himself.
The only thing he felt regretful about was that the power of the five elements in the five-colored pagoda would decrease with the passage of time. He had to constantly replenish it.
When it condensed the Origin of the five elements, it could automatically generate the energy of the five elements. To Li Ming, this was like the stars in the sky, far beyond his reach.
Li Ming's calculation method was a little strange.
He calculated how much power of the five elements would be consumed each time he cast a spell, and how much third-grade spiritual herbs would be exchanged for each power of the five elements, and how many spiritual crystals would be converted into third-grade spiritual herbs.
Heavens! It was too expensive!
Li Ming's hands trembled in pain. He immediately made up his mind not to use the five elements Essence Qi in the pagoda unless it was absolutely necessary.
magical treasures nowadays were all so expensive! They had money to buy it, but no money to feed it.
Even so, the Five-colored Pagoda was still very useful in Li Ming's eyes.
It could increase one's control over the five elements, it could be used for spiritual plant (), it could be used for pill concoction, it could be used for artifact refinement, it could be used for formations.
"This little thing is quite good." The tablet spirit suddenly appeared and looked at the five-colored pagoda in Li Ming's hand with displeasure.
"Hehe…" Being stared at by the tablet spirit (), Li Ming's heart trembled and he felt extremely awkward. However, he still threw this little thing into the Dimensional Ring without hesitation.
"Good, you still have a Dimensional Ring." The tablet spirit's voice became even more unpleasant. He finally understood the reason why there were no Spiritual Crystals.
" I'm making an investment to earn Spiritual Crystals in the future. If I don't pay something, I won't get anything in return!" Li Ming's eyes widened as he
spoke nonsense, but he was complaining in his heart.
"It seems that you are very dissatisfied with me." The tablet spirit's expression suddenly became calm, and it unhurriedly broke its nails.
There was nothing to be afraid of…
Li Ming, who was penniless, suddenly felt a surge of courage. It's all your fault for always giving me such rubbish!
"Trash?" The tablet spirit's face revealed an extremely interesting expression as it was dumbstruck.
It would have been fine if he hadn't said it. But now that he had, he became even angrier. He jumped up and scolded the tablet spirit ()."You still have the cheek to say it?" When have you ever given me anything good? Fe, it almost took my life! My spiritual energy hasn't increased at all!"
"Fragrance Awareness my ass! And the Yin Pearls, a bunch of nascent soul old monsters. I was almost skinned alive by them and made soup for them! You scammer! You liar…
The tablet spirit stood rooted to the ground, staring blankly at the furious Li Ming.
Li Ming cursed like a storm, causing the tablet spirit () to be stunned.
"It's not trash…"
"If this isn't trash, what is it?"
Realizing that it was intimidated by Li Ming's imposing manner, the tablet spirit () felt a little angry. Its right eye was scarlet like a thin and long blood blade. It said coldly,"Oh, what do you mean?"
Li Ming was so choked that he couldn't speak. When he met the pair of sinister eyes of the tablet spirit (), he quickly retreated. I mean, you have to give me something without any aftereffects…"
"I am a demon." "The things I know are different from you xiuzhe. It's normal for there to be some side effects.
The tablet spirit's words implied that if there were aftereffects, it couldn't be blamed on him. Furthermore, it made it very clear that if it were to be given in the future, there would also be aftereffects.
If the tablet spirit was determined to be unreasonable, then Li Ming had no choice.
The difference in strength between the two was too great, so the weight of their words was naturally different.
Li Ming could only remain silent.
The monument spirit's gaze became more and more unfriendly. Li Ming could only brace himself and go up. He knew very well that if he admitted defeat every time, his reputation would drop by a bit, and his ending would become even more tragic.
The tablet spirit ( ) felt a headache coming on.
To make a horse run, one must first feed it. Li Ming was a person who only had money in his eyes, and his thoughts had become more meticulous. It was already impossible for him to lie to him again.
However, he had plenty of time.
Thinking of this, the tablet spirit () felt uneasy. Seeing this guy pestering him, he wanted to slap Li Ming to death. Although he had a bad temper, he was not a fool.
"It's not surprising that there are problems when humans cultivate the demonic mental cultivation method." The viciousness in the tablet spirit's eyes gradually subsided. His voice also became gentle." But I have a few xiuzhe's mental cultivation methods. All the rewards in the future will be these few cultivation methods. If there are any side effects, then don't blame me."
"It's a deal!" Li Ming was ecstatic and quickly corrected him. Exchange and reward were two completely different concepts. Exchange was a natural gain, but if it was a reward, it was completely different.
"Up to you." The tablet spirit spoke with a carefree tone, but he felt a headache in his heart. This fellow was really getting more and more difficult to deal with.
"But you have to hurry up!" " What?" The tablet spirit sounded dissatisfied."
You've earned too little Spiritual Crystals. I'm still short of Spiritual Crystals!"
"I am only a zhuji xiuzhe.."
Chapter 152
The tablet spirit was rendered speechless by Li Ming's words. It knew very well that Li Ming had been troubled by the fact that his cultivation had stagnated.
What's more, Li Ming was telling the truth. Among zhuji xiuzhe, very few could earn more ling crystals like him.
He couldn't do anything about this stubborn guy who was passionate about earning Spiritual Crystals. To be honest, if it was someone else, the tablet spirit () didn't think that it could do better than Li Ming. This guy was just a material to earn Spiritual Crystals.
The tablet spirit discovered that Li Ming was extremely sensitive to everything related to him. He knew what to do without angering his opponent.
Yes, even among the demon race, there were not many people with such wisdom.
The potential that Li Ming had displayed caused the tablet spirit ( ) to gradually change its view of Li Ming. It suddenly remembered that there was a fellow who had option Li Ming from the very beginning. Its mood immediately became terrible, as if it had swallowed a fly.
After saying that, his figure flashed and disappeared from where he was.
Li Ming was not surprised by the sudden disappearance of the tablet spirit. He was secretly glad that every time he negotiated with him, it was an extremely dangerous matter.
The tablet spirit was fine most of the time, but his temper was unpredictable. If he was not careful, he would end up in a very miserable state.
Fortunately, the effect was not bad. He was very satisfied with it.
As for earning Spiritual Crystals, Li Ming didn't have to worry about it for the time being. He was extremely poor now. Moreover, he still had to participate in the last sword-testing conference (-).
He was determined to obtain the basic jade scroll of Kunlun's array formation.
Even though he had a guarantee, Li Ming was still worried. There were more than a hundred xiuzhe in this stage, and in the end, only ten would be chosen. One could imagine how cruel this was.
Su's strength was very strong, and she had no problem protecting herself. But if he was added, it would be hard to say.
He might as well rely on himself.
He already had a rough plan in his mind. When he thought of his own idea, he was extremely excited and impatient!
But now, he could only suppress the excitement in his heart, throw his plans to the back of his mind, and face the more pressing problem of recovering his injuries.
The last time he fought with An Yang, he had defeated the stronger one. Although he won in the end, he was also seriously injured. Under his master's emergency treatment, his injuries were finally mostly healed.
Unexpectedly, sect master suddenly asked him to participate in this sword-testing conference without any rules. Coupled with that jade slip, his injuries became serious.
His cultivation was too weak compared to others. If he didn't fully recover, even with Su's help, he wouldn't be able to last until the end.
Of course, the most important thing was that he did not have to pay for the medical fees this time.
In Fragrant Ginger Yard, Shi Fengrong was facing a medicine barrel, her expression cold. Li Ming's entire body was soaked in the potion, and only his head was exposed.
The potion was as black as ink and emitted a pungent smell. Li Ming, who was standing inside, felt dizzy.
"It stinks!"
"Don't talk nonsense." Shi Feng Rong said impatiently. When she saw Li Ming, the anger in her heart burned and she could no longer suppress it.
Such a genius was not interested in the Tao of the sword, but rather, he was keen on earning Spiritual Crystals! Why did he have such a greedy disciple?
Li Ming could feel the strong displeasure in his master's words and immediately became much more obedient.
In fact, he could already feel the power of this barrel of potion.
The rich and active medicinal effects were like little bugs, drilling around in his body.
However, the process this time was not as wonderful as he had imagined. Li Ming felt as if his body had been pierced by thousands of steel needles.
When he heard his master talk about spiritual energy, he was stunned. Fe, and the Vajra Seal, which of these two techniques was he using now?
He thought for a moment and decided to circulate the [Vajra Seal].
The origin of Fetal Breathing Spiritual Technique unknown. If his master found out, it would be terrible.
He was not afraid of the Titan Seal because it came from Martial Uncle Xu Shan.
Although the [Vajra Seal] that he had learned was based on a tombstone, there was only a difference of five words between the two.
As soon as he circulated the [Vajra Seal], Li Ming had a completely different feeling from usual.
These needle-like medicinal effects seemed to be attracted by a magnet and turned into dozens of streams that flowed into the major acupoints in Li Ming's body. Then, they quickly merged into the spiritual energy in his meridians.
In just a short moment, Li Ming felt that all the meridians in his body were blocked. He was shocked. He had never encountered such a situation before.
Oh my god!
What kind of potion was this? What a domineering medicinal property!
Li Ming couldn't care about anything else now. He activated the with all his might and tried his best to disperse the excess medicinal effects to every inch of his muscles and bones.
The power of the medicinal liquid spread through his body, Restore his injuries like rain nourishing dry land. The damaged parts were also being devoured crazily.
Outside the medicine barrel, Shi Fengrong's face was full of worry, and Li Ming's face was golden, as if it was made of gold.
Pei Xuan, Xu Shan, and Yang Li had appeared beside Shi Fengrong at some point.
"This kid is really amazing." " What?" Yang Li was shocked." His physical body is also so powerful? Isn't he already at the Golden Body Realm?"
"Hmph!" Xu Shan snorted coldly,"l'm not interested in sword techniques!" The other people's expressions also turned ugly.
However, her talent in cultivation was outstanding. No matter what it was, she could advance by leaps and bounds.
He could even silently cultivate the [Vajra Seal] into a Golden Body Robe, but he had no interest in the sword techniques of his lineage.
There were so many powerful sword scriptures in the sect, and they had opened their doors to them. Other than the first time he saw it, this kid had never seen it again.
How could Pei Xuan and the others be happy?
"This is also the reason why I insisted on letting him participate in this sword-testing conference (-)." Even though Pei Xuan had good self-restraint, he was still furious by Li Ming.
Hmph, let's teach him a lesson. What is a Swordsman? What is a Swordsman the best?"
"That's right! The disciples of our own sect are actually not interested in our cultivation method at all. If the seniors find out about this, won't we lose face?" Yang Li, who was always laughing and joking, was also furious.
"I can't tolerate this!" Xu Shan revealed killing intent and shouted sternly.
Shi Feng Rong was originally still a bit worried, but now she couldn't help it and said angrily:
Li Ming's actions made the higher-ups of Divine Will Sect unite like never before to face the enemy together.
Li Ming was fully focused on circulating his spiritual energy and knew nothing about the outside world.
At this moment, all the spiritual sense and spiritual energy in his body were mobilized to the extreme.. This time, he didn't know what kind of spirit herb his master had thrown into the medicine bucket, but the medicinal effect was so strong that he felt like he was about to explode!
Chapter 153
The speed at which he refined the medicinal liquid was much slower than the speed at which he absorbed it.
He gritted his teeth. He knew that as long as he could persist for a while, he would be able to obtain huge benefits.
With his familiarity with alchemy, he naturally knew that the medicinal effect of this medicinal liquid was limited.
As long as he could get through this, he would have enough time to absorb the medicinal effects. After the medicinal liquid entered his body, it quickly turned into golden light spots and fused with his muscles.
His muscles glowed with a golden light. They were like tiny grains of sand that became denser.
However, the growth of the golden light could not keep up with the growth of the medicinal effect.
What frightened Li Ming the most was that the medicinal effect did not show any signs of weakening. It was still so powerful!
The medicinal effects were like a flood that had burst through a dam, surging through his body.
His meridians were already bulging, but the power of the medicinal liquid was still pouring into his meridians, causing them to expand at an astonishing speed.
What made Li Ming even more anxious was that he couldn't stop!
The surging spiritual energy mixed with the medicinal properties was like a wild horse that could not be stopped at all!
Damn it!
"This fellow is going to advance again?" " Huh?" Li Yang stared blankly at Li Ming in the medicine bucket. Suddenly, he was stunned. He tilted his head and muttered to himself," Ah, why did I use the word again?"
No one paid attention to him. Everyone's eyes fell on Li Ming in unison, and their expressions were solemn.
The golden light on Li Ming's face grew brighter and brighter. Circles of golden light rippled like ripples, and his hair gradually turned golden.
The displeasure on Shi Feng Rong's face instantly disappeared without a trace, replaced by deep worry.
"What else is there in the [Vajra Seal] besides Bodily Golden Robe Golden Robe?" Pei Xuan asked.
Xu Shan treasured his words like gold and only said "Red Lotus Gold Water".
"body tempering…" " What?" A trace of recollection appeared on Pei Xuan's face." Which level can allow you to have your own power?"
"The fifth level," Xu Shan replied.
Pei Xuan nodded in realization.
"At this speed, I'm afraid we're not far from the fifth level. I d like to see what kind of supernatural power this kid will have if he can cultivate to the fifth level," interjected Yang Li.
Everyone was silent. They really didn't know much about body tempering.
Kunhua was a world ruled by sword cultivator (). They only practiced the sword and did not care about the world.
Dhyana xiu were best at body tempering, and the sacred ground they cultivated in was the Xuan Kong Realm.
Dhyana xiu were cultivators who focused on self-cultivation and pursued freedom.
Amongst xiuzhe, if one were to talk about the difficulty, it was probably the dhyana xiu. However, most of the dhyana xiu mental cultivation mental cultivation technique were very simple and easy to learn. As long as one had an unyielding heart, one could achieve something.
However, this cultivation technique also had a characteristic. It was easy at the beginning, but later on, it became more and more difficult. It required a great deal of perseverance and wisdom.
However, to be able to reach the fourth level in such a short period of time, Li Ming's talent was extremely rare.
Among dhyana xiu, the most terrifying were divine arts.
The so-called divine power was an ability that would naturally appear when a person's strength reached a certain level.
This was something that all xiuzhe envied. As long as one's cultivation reached a certain level, they would have a special ability.
However, the specific divine power varied from person to person.
Some people had tried to figure this out, but so far, no one had been able to figure it out.
However, even if Li Ming cultivated the [Titan Seal] to the fifth level, Pei Xuan () and the others wouldn't be satisfied with his innate ability.
This was a group of sword cultivator ()!
If dhyana xiu were calm, then sword cultivator ( ) were proud and pure. They only believed in their own swords. As an extremely aggressive xiuzhe, he indeed had the ability to be arrogant.
The stronger the sect, the more this would be reflected.
Although Divine Will Sect was only a small sect now, their ancestors had a large family and business. They were worlds apart from ordinary small sects.
Pei Xuan and the others didn't even care about the other sects, so why would they be interested in any cultivation method other than sword cultivator ()? The higher Li Ming's attainments in body tempering were, the angrier they were.
The ink-like liquid also gradually became crystal clear. Li Ming's trembling also gradually stopped. His dark golden face had a deeper color.
If his face was golden in the past, then now, his face was dark golden.
His face was still expressionless, but there was a hint of solemnity.
The faces of Pei Xuan and the others darkened. If not for Li Ming's talent and status, they would have kicked him down the mountain long ago.
Li Ming opened his eyes and saw four elders standing in a row in front of him. All of them had unfriendly expressions.
His heart was filled with joy when he broke through to the fourth level of the [Titan Seal]. However, the gloomy expressions of the four elders immediately woke him up.
"Less talking, more mistakes."
"Alright, my injuries have mostly recovered. Your master has put in a lot of effort for you. You have to work hard and not disappoint your master. If you can't make it to the top ten in this Sword Test Conference, you can go to your second uncle master to receive your punishment."
Second Uncle-Master…
Li Ming subconsciously looked at his second uncle master and saw that his eyes were cold. Although he was in the boiling medicinal liquid, he had the illusion that he had fallen into an ice cave.
Even his master and Yang Li turned around and left without saying anything.
Li Ming was confused. What was going on?
However, no matter how hard he racked his brains, he could not understand. But soon, he threw this matter to the back of his mind. He suddenly thought of what the sect leader had said before he left.
Top ten?
Did Sect Master drink too much? Did he hear wrongly? Li Ming stayed inside and did not move for a long time.
Floating East, late at night, there were lights of all colors everywhere.
The Sword Test Conference was in full swing in East Floating City. Even at night, there was no peace and it was still bustling. All kinds of shouts rose and fell. In the pitch-black night sky, one could occasionally see sword lights, magical treasures, and the cries of spiritual beasts coming from afar.
"Why did you stop me?" A cultivator dressed in ordinary clothes asked in a deep voice.
"You're not Wei Ping." This person was Lin Qian, whom Li Ming had met in the Hundred Treasure Flying Pavilion.
The xiuzhe immediately laughed." You really know how to joke. If I'm not Wei Ping, who else can I be?"
"You have to ask my sword this question." Lin Qian sighed.
Wei Ping's expression changed abruptly. His gaze turned sharp as a faint purple mist swirled in his hand towards Lin Qian.
A flash of light!
The sharp sword light seemed to not be affected at all. It easily broke through the smoke and shot toward Wei Ping.
Roar!
Wei Ping's eyes were bloodshot, and he let out an inhuman roar. His entire body was expanding crazily!
Chi!
Wei Ping's eyes suddenly widened, and his roar stopped abruptly..
