Longevity, starting from raising chickens

Chapter 224 Step by Step Cicada Foundation Establishment
"If Fellow Daoist Shen wants to go back to Baiyunping, you might as well wait for me for two days, and we will have a care together."

After refining the second-level spirit kitchen utensils, the refining master surnamed Li took the initiative.

In the past half a month of contact, Wang Ba and this craftsman hit it off quite well.

Maybe it's because they are all monks who are obsessed with all kinds of arts, so there are not so many twists and turns, and what to say.

Even though the two specialize in different directions, Wang Ba has a superficial understanding of weapon refining, a major category of cultivator's arts.

He also learned some skills of tempering spiritual materials and adjusting the composition and structure of spiritual materials from the refining master surnamed Li.

Maybe it's because in the spirit kitchen, the configuration of the treatment liquid has the same effect, Wang Ba mastered it very quickly, and even the craftsman surnamed Li was quite impressed.

It is said that if Wang Ba had learned the art of refining weapons at the beginning, his achievements would probably not be lower than he is now.

Wang Ba just smiled calmly at this, and the skill of Ling Chef can be said to be the one that suits him best.

Not inferior to the imperial beast.

If he really took the refining tool, without a large amount of spiritual material for him to practice, it is impossible for him to grow.

It is even more impossible to get to the present.

As for the kindness of the craftsman surnamed Li, although Wang Ba was a little anxious to go back, considering that if the magic weapon of the spiritual chef is not in use in the future, he may need to ask him to make adjustments, so he is embarrassed to refuse.

"After that fellow Taoist is done working, call me."

Wang Ba smiled.

The refining master surnamed Li locked himself in the room and carefully reviewed what he had gained from this refining.

This is a habit that many refiners will have.

After all, spiritual materials are rare, and every opportunity to refine a second-order magic weapon must be cherished.

Unlike alchemists, all kinds of elixir, gold and stone are relatively more abundant, and the fault tolerance rate is also high.

It doesn't look like a talisman master either. If the painting is abolished, you can't do it again.

Wang Ba didn't want to waste time, so he simply grabbed a second-order low-grade spirit chicken from the spirit beast bag, and tried to make the second-order spirit chicken essence.

However, compared with the first-order spiritual chicken, the second-order spiritual chicken has obvious changes in both body shape and part of the body structure. For example, the strength of chicken beaks and chicken feet has been greatly improved. to too great an effect.

Fortunately, Wang Ba has collected a lot of spiritual materials and medicines in recent years.

After pondering for a while, I successfully prepared a treatment solution suitable for second-order spirit chickens.

Quickly pluck hair and dismember corpses...

After a busy time.

"puff--"

The rich aroma of spirit chicken essence wafted out of the pot accompanied by a strange smell.

Smelling this scent, Wang Ba frowned slightly.

When I opened it, I saw that the essence of chicken at the bottom of the pot was supposed to be frozen, but it was a cloudy gray-black.

"There are too many impurities. It seems that the treatment solution needs to be re-prepared...and the heat is not right."

Although he had never refined a Tier [-] essence, after all he had accumulated so much experience, Wang Ba could almost sense the problem with his eyes closed.

The only thing that made him hesitate was that he vaguely noticed that there seemed to be something more in the essence besides the essence and blood that he was very familiar with.

Wang Ba stretched out his index finger, gently wiped a little bit into his mouth.

Eyes lit up.

"It's... actually beneficial to the power of the soul."

Strictly speaking, the spirit chicken essence made with first-order spirit chickens can also improve the soul after refining. At the beginning, Wang Ba relied on eating spirit chickens to condense the power of Yin God .

But this second-order spiritual chicken essence is different, in addition to the rich spiritual energy, essence and blood energy, it actually forms a pure soul power alone.

It doesn't even need to be refined, and it will naturally nourish the soul while taking it.

After tasting it again, he had some new feelings about the essence produced by the second-order spiritual chicken.

"Besides, the quality of the aura is much higher than that of the first level. It is estimated that even if it is used by monks in the late stage of foundation establishment, the effect will not be bad at all."

"Essence, vitality, and blood are also more abundant."

"It's just such a small piece, the effect is probably as good as one-fifth of a bottle of first-order spirit chicken essence."

"Unfortunately, I screwed up this time."

Wang Ba looked at the essence with more than [-]% impurities in the pot with some regret, and he was not willing to throw it away, so he fed it to the spirit turtle.

At the same time, record these feelings one by one.

After resuming the review and reorganizing it again, Wang Ba made a major change to the treatment solution.

The impurity content reaches [-]%, indicating that the configuration of the treatment solution is not a small problem.

For the next two days, he spent almost all of it trying to refine the second-order spirit chicken essence.

He didn't bring many second-order low-grade spiritual chickens, mainly because the second-order low-grade spiritual chickens basically rely on natural breeding, and the number has never increased.

The second-tier low-grade spirit chickens were quickly used up.

However, the purity of the second-order spiritual chicken essence was successfully raised to about [-]% by him.

Without much hesitation, he directly took the second-order high-grade spirit chicken and started to try it.

Thanks to the hard work of Jia Shiwu, starting from the second-level top-rank, the number of his soul chickens has skyrocketed.

Now he has an astonishing 3000 second-order top-grade broiler chickens.

The number of top-quality spiritual chickens is much smaller, but there are still two to three hundred.

Compared with broiler chickens, the number of phantom chickens bred by Jiashiwu is obviously much less.

There are about 140 second-tier top grades.

There are twelve second-order top grades.

Looking at all the forces in the entire Yan Kingdom, I am afraid that the number of foundation-establishing disciples of the four major sects is more than him.

But if you count the mountain-moving ape, psychic ghost loach, and clear water turtle under his hands, it's hard to say.

If it wasn't for him not having a third-order spirit beast so far, it would be fine to count him directly as the fifth sect.

And these are the confidence that he dares to gain a foothold in Baiyunping, and it is also where his current real wealth lies.

"Well, the strength of the beak and claw tips of the second-level high-grade spirit chicken has been significantly improved compared to the second-level low-grade spirit chicken. I'm afraid we need to add some ingredients to the treatment solution..."

"The essence, energy, and blood condensed in the muscles are also more difficult to melt away, and the duration of the fire in the wood seems to be longer."

I quickly ran over the summed up precautions in my mind, and at the same time carefully handled the spirit chicken little by little in my hand, then put it into the pot and magic vessel, and started refining again.

After more than three full hours, even with Wang Ba's powerful mana, he couldn't help but feel a little strenuous when he continued to use Wood in Fire.

And the refining of the spirit chicken essence is finally coming to an end.

soon.

"laugh--"

With the release of a burst of heat, Wang Ba lifted the pot and quickly cast a spell to cool it down.

At the bottom of the pot, a piece of crystal clear jelly-like essence with only a little gray and black impurities at the bottom was shaking slightly.

"The purity has reached eighty-and-a-half percent...it's not bad. If you practice more later, the purity should be improved."

Wang Ba nodded slightly.

"I don't know how the acceptance of this thing is."

"It's a pity that no one can give feedback right now."

is thinking.

But outside the house came the voice of a craftsman surnamed Li:
"Fellow Daoist, I'm ready, when are we leaving?"

When Wang Ba heard this, his heart suddenly moved.

Isn't this ready!
Immediately, he undid the restriction on the door, and quickly greeted the craftsman surnamed Li.

"Brother Li Dao, please come and give me some pointers. This is my newly refined spirit chicken essence."

"Fellow Daoist Shen is joking, I'm a hammer wielder, how can I understand your spiritual chef..."

The craftsman surnamed Li hadn't finished his modest words, when he saw the jelly-like essence in the pot that was only half the size of a palm, he was taken aback for a moment.

With a strong cultivation base, he immediately noticed the difference.

"This...isn't this what it used to be?"

The craftsman surnamed Li said in surprise.

Not caring about being polite at the moment, he quickly rolled up his sleeves and stretched out his index finger, wrapped it with magic power, wiped a small piece along the edge of the jelly essence, and put it in his mouth impatiently.

In an instant, the face of the craftsman surnamed Li froze, his brows furrowed quickly, and he immediately revealed a look of shock!
"This, why is it good for the soul..."

"Friend Daoist Shen, can I try it again? Don't worry, I bought this essence!"

After eating a small piece, the craftsman surnamed Li couldn't help but said eagerly.

Wang Ba was not stingy with the friends he recognized, he waved his hand with a smile and said:
"It's okay, you can try it again, it's okay to give it to you, but this piece is not of high purity, and there are some impurities. By the way, after eating, you have to give me some useful suggestions."

"I try my best."

The craftsman surnamed Li heard that he didn't care about impurities, he carefully wrapped the spirit chicken essence with mana, and swallowed it.

Immediately, he didn't care about the environment, just sat down cross-legged, and started refining.

A full two hours.

It was getting dark outside, and Li, a craftsman surnamed Li, finally opened his eyes.

Such a piece of spiritual chicken essence would not cause any surprising changes to the craftsman surnamed Li.

It's just that after the refiner surnamed Li thought about it for a while, he couldn't help showing a look of surprise in his eyes:
"This essence of Fellow Daoist Shen, in terms of the purity of spiritual energy alone, is not inferior to the second-order top grade 'Sang Huo Pill' I have ever taken."

"But more importantly, the essence, qi, and blood in this essence are really full. It is of great benefit to the vitality of the physical body, and even the breakthrough of the realm. Dan'."

"The most important thing is the soul energy contained in it. This is a good thing!"

"I have practiced so far, and when I was on the front line of the Wei State, I have seized something called 'Shenhualu', which can directly benefit the soul. Even if there are other things, they are quite troublesome."

"The only pity is that the aura, essence, and spirit contained in this piece are a little less."

Listening to Li's detailed analysis, Wang Ba couldn't help but admire it.

Although he can also perceive what is contained in it, it is really impossible for him to quantify and compare it with pills, after all, he has never taken pills.

However, what the other party said is that it contains less energy, which is normal. After all, in order to retain the most essential parts as much as possible, a lot of impurities must be removed. A second-order top-grade spirit chicken is not small, but after removing impurities, it is really not small. many.

Of course, this is also very simple for him, the big deal is to add another one to refine it together.

One portion of the essence made by two second-tier high-grade spiritual chickens is enough.

"If it's convenient, fellow daoist, can you make two more copies for me?"

The refining master surnamed Li was a little embarrassed.

Wang Ba did not refuse when he heard the words, anyway, he also needs to keep practicing to improve the purity.

Immediately begin to prepare the treatment solution.

And the craftsman surnamed Li also left the room very tactfully.

By the time Wang Ba walked out of the house, it was already early the next morning.

He made some spirit chicken essence, but unfortunately the purity was around [-]%, and he didn't know why.

I took two copies and gave them to the craftsman surnamed Li.

Wang Ba also confiscated the spirit stone of the craftsman surnamed Li, mainly because he didn't think about how to collect it, and he also wanted to have a deep relationship with the craftsman surnamed Li. Can ask the opponent to make a move.

The craftsman surnamed Li is not the kind of pretentious person. After accepting the spirit stone, his attitude towards Wang Ba became closer.

The tasks at hand of the two of them were over, and they immediately set off to fly to Baiyunping.

What just made Wang Ba a little puzzled was that he felt inexplicably as if he had missed something when he flew away from the boundary of Zhenling Palace.

But after much deliberation, there was no clue, so I had to give up.

……

On the way back, the two happened to meet the half-year opening period of the second floor of Linglong Ghost City.

Naturally, Wang Ba and the craftsman surnamed Li had no reason to miss it, so they entered it immediately and took a look around.

Wang Ba took the opportunity to find the manager of the second floor, the old man in brocade clothes.

In front of the old man in brocade clothes, he deliberately did not use the power of Yin God to change his original image.

"Friend Daoist Shen is here."

The old man in brocade clothes was not surprised to see Wang Ba.

In fact, Wang Ba would come here almost every year. Besides buying various resources, he would also chat with the old man in brocade clothes. Because of his Tang nationality, the old man in brocade clothes did not refuse.

After coming and going, the two of them are considered to be acquainted with each other.

But before Wang Ba could reply, the old man in brocade clothes took the initiative to say:

"Your brother Zhao hasn't left the customs yet, but don't worry, if he does, I will tell him as soon as possible and let him find you."

Wang Yan hesitated slightly when he heard the words, and then showed a smile:
"Hehe, you said it last time, Fellow Daoist, it will take at least two or three years, don't worry."

"I mainly want to ask, are there any 'Jidu Xianzhi', 'Golden Feather Xuancao', 'White Dragon Sulphur', 'Cui Yugu', 'Lei Huolin', 'Third-Rank Spirit Beasts' here? Neidan'..."

The old man in brocade clothes was named Shang Li, which Wang Ba only found out after visiting a few times.

Shang Li, an old man in brocade clothes, was slightly dumbfounded when he heard the words, but then he thought about it seriously:
"What you said, if I remember correctly, most of them are sold on the third floor of the ghost market, but you are not qualified to enter the third floor, so I can't break the rules."

Wang Ba was overjoyed at first when he heard the words, and then he was speechless when he heard the second half of the sentence.

It's just that I still don't give up:
"Then, what if it's a private transaction? I'll buy it from fellow daoist, and I'll give fellow daoist some more spirit stones."

"Shouldn't this be considered breaking the rules?"

These few things are the bloodline breakthrough materials that can help Jia Fifteen advance to the third level, and they are the formulas obtained by Wang Ba after careful research for a long time.

As long as these things are collected, according to Wang Ba's estimation, it will be able to help A[-] to advance to the third rank smoothly. With A[-]'s physique, there should be a great possibility of successfully crossing the tribulation.

It's just that these things are almost all resources that are monopolized or controlled by the sect. He tried many ways, but he couldn't get them.

There was really no way out, just in time for the opening of the second floor of the ghost market, he wondered if he could come here to try his luck.

Unexpectedly, most of the third floors of Linglong Ghost City have them.

But what Wang Yan didn't expect was that Shang Li glanced at him and couldn't help laughing twice. There was no contempt in his tone, but with a hint of ridicule and pride, he rarely persuaded:
"Fellow Daoist Shen, you should think of another way. Mr. Shang is the most respectful of rules. You should know this because you have been here so many times."

"Ten thousand!"

Wang Ba quickly said: "The spiritual materials I mentioned, in addition to the spiritual stones that should have been paid, I will give fellow Taoists another 1 yuan in spiritual stones!"

"..."

"...Well, brother Shen, the spirit stone you mentioned, is it low-grade or medium-grade?"

Shang Li coughed, asked in a low voice, and immediately explained with a guilty conscience:

"I don't want it, I just ask, ask."

Wang Ba was startled for a moment, then overjoyed:

"Naturally, it's a mid-tier one. How can a low-tier one be worthy of Brother Shang?"

When Shang Li heard this, his face couldn't hide his joy, but he immediately restrained his unconscious smile, and his face suddenly became serious again.

Glancing around, he immediately winked at Wang Ba.

Wang Ba understood immediately, and followed Shang Li into a side hall next to the palace where the 'Baiwen Building' was located, and sat down.

Immediately, a monk brought spiritual tea to Wang Ba.

To Wang Ba's surprise, the aura of spirit tea had reached the third level.

"Dial from above, don't be shy."

Shang Li's originally serious face softened a little.

Wang Ba took a small sip, and suddenly felt refreshed, and there seemed to be many insights in his heart that he hadn't noticed in the past.

Especially in terms of spirit chefs, he vaguely grasped the reason why he was still unable to reach 100% purity when refining the second-order spirit chicken essence.

Immediately, he didn't dare to waste such an opportunity, Chao Shangli smiled apologetically, and immediately immersed himself in thinking.

Shang Li was not surprised, he drank tea by himself.

a long time.

Wang Ba finally came back to his senses, and only felt that his understanding of the spirit chef had improved a lot.

I also have an idea in mind about how to solve the problem of the purity of the second-order essence.

"Thank you, Brother Shang."

Wang Ba said sincerely.

"Why are you being polite, it's the first time drinking this spirit tea has such an effect... However, I can break the rules for you about what you just said, but I can only break part of the rules..."

Shang Li said seriously.

"Break a part?"

Wang Ba was a little puzzled when he heard this.

"If I resell one or two, even if I'm found out, it's a sideshow at best. But if there are too many, then this is really breaking the rules. Once discovered, my life will be difficult."

Shang Li simply pointed out:
"So, the spiritual materials you mentioned, I can only buy you two at most. If you don't want to, just pretend that we haven't talked about it. If you accept it, let's talk again."

"Only two pieces?"

Wang Ba hesitated for a moment.

Ten thousand middle-grade spirit stones, this is definitely a huge sum of money.

Even an ordinary Golden Core Daoist may not be able to take out so much at once.

And paying [-] middle-grade spirit stones, you can only get two pieces of spirit materials. This price is not insignificant.

But on the other hand, for him now, no matter how many spirit stones there are, it doesn't mean much.

The reason is also simple. Many things he wants are not sold to him at all, and there is nowhere to buy them.

So after hesitating for a while, Wang Ba made a decision.

"Of course I would."

Shang Li also nodded happily when he heard the words.

100 yuan high-grade spirit stone, you can get it with just a change of hands, even if he obeys the rules, he will still be tempted.

Not to mention two things, the risk is extremely low.

He doesn't have any reason not to.

"But this time there is no other way, you can only come again when the ghost market is open next time, and you can tell me what you need."

After confirming the transaction relationship, Shang Li became more amiable.

Wang Ba couldn't help but sigh the charm of Lingshi.

Immediately, he chose two spiritual materials that were extremely rare in the outside world, and then took the initiative to take out 5000 yuan of middle-grade spiritual stones as a deposit.

"By the way, Master Tang...Tang Ji will be back soon. He asked me to tell you when I see you. Remember to come when the ghost market opens."

Before Wang Ba left, Shang Li seemed to have thought of something, and urged him.

Hearing Tang Ji, Wang Ba was taken aback for a moment, and then said curiously:
"Where did Fellow Daoist Tang go?"

He also asked before, but Shang Li was vague.

This time, Shang Li didn't hide it any more, maybe he felt that there was no need to hide it.

"Chen Guo, a small country in the north, is separated from Yan Guo by Song Guo..."

"Chen Guo?"

Hearing this familiar place suddenly, Wang Ba couldn't help being taken aback.

"He... why did he go there?"

"I don't know that."

Shang Li said vaguely.

Wang Ba knew that he couldn't ask anything, even though he was a little confused, he still collected his thoughts.

Now bid farewell to Shangli.

After reuniting with the craftsman surnamed Li, the two rushed for two days and one night, and borrowed a few teleportation formations in the middle, and finally arrived at Baiyunping.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, I'll go find a friend first, and I'll bother you with fellow Daoist later."

The craftsman surnamed Li raised his hand and said goodbye.

Wang Ba was also anxious about Bu Chan's situation. After being polite, he didn't do much to keep him. He just left the sound transmission symbol and address, and the two separated.

However, he didn't go back from the outside blatantly, but used a teleportation talisman less than two hundred miles away from the casual cultivator's gathering place, and returned to the house that lingered with a faint fragrance of grass and trees.

It's just that maybe because the hostess of the house has been away for a long time, the scent of grass and trees seems to be a little weaker.

Even when Wang Yan walked to the practice room where Buchan retreated, he felt that the breath in it was still showing a rising and rising trend, so he was relieved.

After feeling the breath, Wang Ba simply guarded the door of the training room.

Five days later.

In the training room, accompanied by the sudden surge of spiritual energy around him, there was a soft moan.

soon.

The door of the training room was pushed open from the inside.

'Boli——'

A phantom of milky yellow had already flown out from inside and landed on Wang Ba's shoulder.

Wang Ba couldn't help but look not far away.

In front of the door.

A woman with a lingyun bun, a long vermilion skirt and a purple gauze blouse was also looking at him.

There are traces of joy and lovesickness in the eyes.

"Brother."

"Junior Sister, congratulations to Foundation Establishment."

The two smiled at each other.
