Spring passed and autumn came, and two years passed.
Martial arts garden, a certain secret room.
Shen Long stood in front of a sand pit filled with white ice picks.
A white light lit up in his right hand. He raised his right hand and a white ice pick about a foot long flew out and hit the sand pit.
"The Great Perfection of Ice Cone Technique!"
Shen Long's face was filled with joy. After several years of practice, he finally mastered the Ice Cone Technique to the Great Perfection. In this way, he had mastered the four first-level spells to the Great Perfection.
Shen Long is still at the sixth level of Qi Refining. In the past two years, they have gone into the mountains to hunt monsters every once in a while. Ye Yutang and Ye Yuqing arranged formations to kill the monsters. First-level monsters are no match for them. They hunt monsters. The efficiency was greatly improved, and more and more spiritual stones were earned. Their demon hunting team became famous in Qianzhu Valley.
With a flick of his sleeve, a red fireball flew out and hit the sand pit, destroying all the ice picks.
He opened the door to the secret room and saw Qin Qing and Qin Tianhe.
Qin Tianhe was already at the fourth level of Qi Refining, while Qin Qing was still standing still. Most of the spiritual stones earned from hunting monsters were spent on Qin Tianhe.
"Friend Daoist Qin, long time no see!"
Shen Long greeted with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, I heard from my grandfather that you have practiced the three magic arts to the Great Perfection?"
Qin Tianhe's face was filled with envy.
He also spends two hours every day practicing spells, and so far he has only practiced one spell to perfection.
Shen Long nodded: "God rewards hard work, I am optimistic about you."
"Tianhe is more promising than me, but he is still far behind compared to Fellow Daoist Shen. This kid has only cultivated one spell to the Great Perfection, unlike Fellow Daoist Shen, who has practiced three spells to the Great Perfection."
Qin Qing said in an envious tone.
"If he practices more, he can definitely do it."
Shen Long said with a smile that he deliberately leaked this information. His current trump cards are the Beast Soul Talisman, Ice Cone Technique and Iron Tail Scorpion.
After chatting for a while, Shen Long left, and Qin Qing and Qin Tianhe walked in.
"The temperature was so high. Was he practicing the Fire Snake Technique just now?"
Qin Tianhe said curiously.
"It's possible! Hurry up and practice the technique, and master the fireball technique to perfection as soon as possible."
Qin Qing urged.
Qin Tianhe responded and muttered something.
Shen Long returned to his residence, activated the sound insulation array, and entered the Yuling Tower.
A burst of joyful neighing sounded, and the Iron-tailed Scorpion crawled out of the Yuling Pond and ran towards Shen Long.
Shen Long named the pool Yuling Pool. The Iron-tailed Scorpion usually stays here. It is still in the early stage of the first level and is already about ten feet in size.
Shen Long took out a red storage bag, shook the bag mouth down, and a red glow passed by. There was an iron-tailed scorpion about ten feet in size on the ground, and its head was missing.
According to Ye Yuqing, devouring the corpses of high-level similar species will help spiritual beasts and insects advance to a certain extent.
This iron-tailed scorpion was killed by Shen Long during the early stage of the first level when he entered the mountain last time.
The iron-tailed scorpion swung its giant pincers, tearing apart the iron-tailed scorpion's body and feasting on it.
Shen Long exited the Yuling Pagoda, took out the clay pot and golden pearl spiritual rice, and cooked a jar of spiritual rice.
After eating the spiritual rice, he put away the spiritual stones on the spiritual tower and the sound isolation array, and walked out.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Shen Long appeared at the door of Zhenbao Pavilion and strode in.
"Friend Daoist Shen, long time no see."
A pot-bellied man in a red shirt walked over quickly and said enthusiastically.
Lin Dong is at the eighth level of Qi Refining. He is Lin Yu's brother.
Shen Long sold all the elixirs he obtained from hunting monsters to the Treasure Pavilion. Over time, Shen Long and Lin Dong became familiar with each other.
"Long time no see, Fellow Daoist Lin, I have something to talk to you about."
Shen Long greeted with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, please come with me."
Lin Dong made an inviting gesture, took Shen Long to a guest room upstairs, closed the door, and activated the soundproof array.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, I heard that you have elixirs specifically designed to feed spiritual beasts. How do you sell them?"
Shen Long asked.
"Young Daoist Shen, you are talking about the Spirit Feeding Pill! This is a hot item. The Chen family, the Han family, and the Li family have already made reservations."
Lin Dong looked troubled.
"I don't want more, just buy a few pills. Fellow Daoist Lin, please be accommodating. Every time I sell elixirs, I always come to you. It's not too much to take care of the regular customers!"
Shen Long said.
Lin Dong thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll sell you three, thirty spiritual stones each, but don't tell anyone."
"Thirty spiritual stones per piece? So expensive?"
Shen Long frowned and said.
"You get what you pay for, so it's expensive."
Lin Dong said.
"Okay! Just three pills, and one more bottle of Qi Accumulating Pill."
Shen Long said.
The effect of taking the Qi Nourishing Pill is very poor. He may have developed resistance to the drug and needs to take better pills. One Qi Yun Dan costs five spiritual stones, and one bottle only costs fifty spiritual stones. In comparison, The Spirit Feeding Pill is six times as powerful as the Qi Yun Dan.
"Okay, just wait a moment and I'll be back as soon as I can."
Lin Dong stood up and left.
Not long after, he came back, took out a cyan porcelain bottle and a cyan wooden box, and handed them to Shen Long.
After Shen Long checked that everything was correct, he paid off the spirit stones and turned around to leave.
He came to the Qingshi Square where the stalls were set up and walked around.
"Fellow Daoist Shen, would you like to buy a pot of spiritual wine?"
A sweet female voice sounded.
Shen Long looked along the source of the sound and saw Huang Xiuyun. She was already at the seventh level of Qi Refining.
Shen Long asked Huang Xiuyun that the two eggs had not hatched yet, so she did not intend to sell them and was determined to hatch them.
"Huang Fairy, I want a pot of jade apricot brew!"
Shen Long said with a smile and took out twenty spiritual stones.
He now has a small fortune and has more than 600 spiritual stones in his storage bag.
It would be Sun Huowang's birthday in a few days, and he planned to buy a pot of better spiritual wine and give it to Sun Huowang.
Huang Xiuyun accepted the spirit stone and handed a yellow wine bottle to Shen Long.
"Why don't you see Fairy Ye?"
Shen Long asked casually.
"They have finished selling the talismans and have gone back to rest. Do you want to see them? I can help you contact them."
Huang Xiuyun said enthusiastically.
Ye Yuqing is proficient in the art of talisman seals and is well-known in the city. The first-level talisman seals she refines are relatively cheap and the quality is not bad. However, she only sells some talisman seals every once in a while. She will never sell more. Obviously she doesn't want to Offend those talisman and seal shops.
"No, I'm just asking casually."
Shen Long refused. He remembered something and asked curiously: "Huang Fairy, your two insect eggs haven't hatched yet? They should be dead eggs!"
"It can't be a dead egg. It has vitality fluctuations. It's just very weak. I believe it can be hatched."
Huang Xiuyun said seriously.
Shen Long smiled, chatted for a few words, and left.
He came to Qiaobingtang. The business of Qiaobingtang was not bad, and the waiter was introducing weapons to customers.
He came to the second floor and saw Sun Huowang talking to a tall, thin man in a yellow shirt. Sun Huowang's face was filled with anger and he seemed to be angry.
Seeing Shen Long, Sun Huowang's expression softened and he said, "Shen Long, you are here."
