Myriad Beast Immortal

Chapter 71
Half a year passed quickly, the door of the practice room opened, and Shen Long came out, his face filled with joy.

He has cultivated for more than half a year, and successfully advanced to the ninth level of Qi Refining. As long as he gets the Foundation Establishment Pill, he can try to attack the Foundation Establishment Stage.

If he hadn't joined Yulingzong, Shen Long might not be able to advance to the ninth level of Qi Refining if he practiced in Yunmengfang City for a few more years.

Before Shen Long had gone far, Qin Shan walked towards him.

"Junior Brother Shen, you have passed the test, hey, you have advanced to the ninth level of Qi refining, congratulations!"

Qin Shan felt the powerful aura exuded by Shen Long and congratulated him.

"Senior Brother Qin, I'm really sorry, I've been in the practice room for a long time, how many spirit stones do I have to pay?"

Shen Long asked.

"You don't need to pay. I asked Uncle Liu for instructions some time ago and mentioned this matter. Uncle Liu said that there is no need to pay if the delay is too long. Junior Brother Shen, you just delayed it by more than ten days, which is not too long."

Qin Shan said with a smile.

Liu Xian didn't say how long the delay would be and he would have to pay the fee. This time is naturally determined by Qin Shan. If the delay is not too long, Qin Shan will make an allowance and sell his favor.

"Thank you very much, Senior Brother Qin."

Shen Long thanked him.

"It has nothing to do with me. I am following orders. If you advance to the ninth level of Qi Refining, Dabi will definitely get a better ranking."

Qin Shan said with a smile.

Shen Long nodded, chatted a few words, and left Qingyun Palace.

It was noon at this time, Shen Long went to Lingshan Pavilion for lunch, and returned to Qingmei Courtyard.

Lin Cheng was applying rain, and when he saw Shen Long, he showed joy: "Senior brother Shen, you have passed the test! Hey, you have advanced to the ninth level of Qi refining, congratulations!"

Lin Cheng was full of envy, and Shen Long would become a Foundation Establishment cultivator one step further.

"In the future, you can come once every five days, and return the token to me!"

Shen Long said.

Lin Cheng took out the token, returned it to Shen Long, and said, "Senior Brother Shen, I have never entered Qingmei Pavilion."

Shen Long put away the token, pushed open the door of Qingmei Pavilion, and walked in.

He marked some places. If Lin Cheng entered Qingmei Pavilion, these marks would be erased. These marks are still there, and Lin Cheng did not lie.

Shen Long brewed a pot of spirit tea and walked out.

At this time, Lin Cheng had also finished raining, and the silver marrow rice was growing well, with full grains, and it would mature in half a year.

"Thank you for your hard work, Junior Brother Lin, drink a cup of tea to relieve fatigue."

Shen Long poured Lin Cheng a cup of spiritual tea.

Lin Cheng took the teacup and drank it down.

"The harvest will be ready in half a year. I estimate that the yield will be higher. Senior Brother Shen should be able to make a fortune."

Lin Cheng was full of pride.

"Is Junior Brother Lin Shanlin free? You call him here, I happen to be free, so let's give him some pointers."

Shen Long said.

"It's free, of course I'm free, I'll let him come over right away."

Lin Cheng took out a communication disk with a flashing blue light, entered a formula, and made gestures.

Not long after, Lin Shan came over, and he asked Shen Long for his experience in practicing the ice cone technique. Shen Long did not hide his secrets, and gave serious instructions.

"Junior brother Lin, you are about to master the ice cone technique to Dzogchen, practice more."

Shen Long encouraged.

"Understood, Senior Brother Shen."

Lin Shan thanked him.

"Trouble Senior Brother Shen, we won't disturb Senior Brother Shen's rest, let's say goodbye."

Lin Cheng and Lin Shan left.

Shen Long left Qingmeiyuan, came to Qian Dafu's residence, and sent a sound transmission talisman.

A quarter of an hour passed, and Qian Dafu hadn't come out yet, so he probably wasn't there.

Shen Long sacrificed the flying magic weapon and flew towards Yanwu Peak.

There are many practice rooms in Yanwu Peak for the disciples of Yulingzong to practice spells.

When Shen Long arrived at Yanwu Peak, there were many qi refining monks competing, most of them were fighting beasts and insects.

Shen Long walked into a practice room and began to mutter something.

A blue light flashed in his right hand, and when he raised his right hand, a chi-long blue wind blade shot out, hitting a blue stone tablet, leaving a faint cut mark.

Wind Blade Art!
Shen Long has already practiced the wind blade technique to a small degree. Over the past two years, he has spent a lot of time practicing wind blade technique.

An hour later, Shen Long walked out of the practice room, his face was pale, and he looked like he had consumed too much mana.

Shen Long came to a vast bluestone square, where many Qi refining monks were fighting beasts and insects.

He watched it for less than half an hour, then left Yanwu Peak, returned to Qingyun Peak, and went to the Teaching Pavilion.

When he came to the Teaching Pavilion, Shen Long found that there were only twelve disciples, and Ye Yuqing, Qin Bao, Li Lei and others were not there.

He found an empty seat and sat down.

Not long after, Sun Sen walked in.

Feeling the powerful spiritual pressure emitted by Shen Long, he was a little surprised and began to teach.

"Today I will talk about the barbarians, and I will introduce you to the great tribes and totem techniques of the barbarians."

Sun Sen said.

The totem technique of the barbarians is to collect the blood essence of monsters, engrave totems on the body of barbarian monks through secret methods, use the power of totems to strengthen themselves, and cultivate to a certain level. body against the enemy.

Take the "Flying Butterfly Scripture" of Yulingzong as an example. If you practice to the extreme, you can turn into a spirit butterfly to fight against the enemy. You can use the supernatural powers of the spirit butterfly. If you practice the totem technique to the extreme, the body cannot be transformed into a monster. , at most a half-demon.

The "Flying Butterfly Scripture" needs the essence and blood of spirit butterflies to assist in cultivation. The higher the level of cultivation, the higher the rank of spirit butterflies, while the technique of totem needs to devour the souls of similar monsters. The spirit of high-level monsters of the same kind.

It's really hard to say which kind of cultivation method is better, each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Two hours passed quickly, Sun Sen announced that the get out of class was dismissed, the other qi refining disciples left, and Shen Long stayed behind.

"Congratulations! Junior Brother Shen, if you cultivate a few more techniques to reach the Dzogchen, you will definitely be able to get a good ranking in the competition."

Sun Sen said.

"Senior brother Chengsun Ji Yan, if I hadn't gotten a good ranking this time and could practice in the practice room for half a year, I wouldn't have advanced to the ninth level of Qi refining so quickly."

Shen Long smiled all over his face.

"To get a better ranking, Junior Brother Shen still needs to buy a high-grade magic weapon. In the past, the top [-] players in the competition all had high-grade magic weapons."

Sun Sen suggested.

There is a high-grade magic weapon, which makes it easier to break into the Thousand Demon Tower.

Shen Long nodded, he also planned to buy a high-grade magic weapon, but in this way, he would not have many spirit stones in his hand.

He has calculated that before the Grand Competition, it is impossible for the Fire Rock Beast to advance to the late stage of the first order. He has been raising the Fire Rock Beast for almost three years. It is impossible to advance to the late stage of the first order, and the cultivation speed of immortals is not so fast.

Iron-tailed scorpion might advance to the late stage of the first order. It has been with Shen Long for nearly ten years, but its attack method is not strong. If the iron-tailed scorpion can mutate and attack with poison, its strength can be improved a lot.

Xu Feng also said that if the iron-tailed scorpion wants to mutate, it can take the corpse and blood essence of a high-level poisonous scorpion. It should not be too much higher than the iron-tailed scorpion. The gap is too big, and the iron-tailed scorpion may not be able to withstand it.

Shen Long and Sun Sen have consulted on this issue. There are many successful examples of iron-tailed scorpions becoming poisonous scorpions, but there are more failures. If spirit insects are so easy to mutate, mutant spirit insects will not be so rare.

Shen Long has more than 2000 spirit stones on his body. He and Qian Dafu bought Spirit Pills, each with 23 spirit stones and a bottle of 230 yuan. Even if you feed one iron-tailed scorpion for a month, you will need 400 yuan of spirit stones for two years. This is not counting the feeding pills for the Fire Rock Beast.

Selling the silver marrow spirit rice can earn a sum of spirit stones, plus the monthly salary, it can be saved for more than two years, which is enough for now.

Of course, the more spirit stones the better, Shen Long made a plan for himself to earn more spirit stones in these two years.

He can receive some simple tasks from the deacon tower to earn spirit stones. Qin Bao and others hunting monsters is also a way, but Shen Long does not consider going out to hunt monsters.

"Senior Brother Sun, you have a lot of contacts, is there a way to get money faster?"

Shen Long asked.

"The way to get money faster? Talisman making, alchemy, weapon refining, array formation, and wine making are all faster to get money, but you don't know how, Junior Brother Qin and the others go out to hunt monsters and make a lot of money, but there is a certain amount of money." Risk, half a month ago, a brother who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining died in the mouth of a first-level monster."

Sun Sen said.

"Senior Brother Sun, do you have any good suggestions?"

Shen Long asked.

"I heard that a second-tier mine controlled by this sect needs a lot of Qi refining monks. You just need to stay in the mine. However, when you go out to work, you don't come back whenever you want. If you need manpower temporarily, I will transfer you to other mines. The location is also uncertain, and it is very likely that Dabi will be missed.”

Sun Sen said, his tone changed, and he said: "Let's do this! Let me help you pay attention and see if there is any suitable job for you."

"Then I will trouble Senior Brother Sun."

Shen Long thanked him.

After all, Sun Sen is a disciple born at home, and he knows many disciples of Yulingzong, maybe he can find a good job for him, so that he won't miss the competition,

"No trouble, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

Sun Sen said nonchalantly.

After chatting for a while, Shen Long took his leave and left. After dinner at Lingshan Pavilion, he walked towards his residence.

As soon as he approached Qingmeiyuan, Qian Dafu's voice sounded: "Senior brother Shen, you have advanced to the ninth level of Qi refining, congratulations!"

Shen Long looked along the source of the sound and saw Qian Dafu walking towards him.

He invited Qian Dafu into Qingmei courtyard and brewed a pot of spiritual tea.

"Junior Brother Qian, where have you been? You just came back now."

Shen Long asked casually.

"My cousin is back. She used to work in a Tier [-] spiritual mine in this sect. The rotation period has come. She has been transferred back to the main altar to prepare for the competition."

Qian Dafu said, he remembered something, and said enthusiastically: "Brother Shen, would you like me to introduce my cousin to you? My cousin is not bad looking."

"No need, I don't consider the relationship between men and women at the moment, by the way, how many Qi refining monks have been transferred back to the main altar?"

Shen Long asked.

"According to the usual practice, many qi refining monks who have gone out to serve will be transferred back to participate in the small competition. There are many disciples on the ninth floor of qi refining. The competition in the big competition is not small, and they have brought back a lot of good things. I'm busy, and you don't need anything? May I help you pay attention?"

Qian Dafu asked.

"Good things? What are they?"

Shen Long asked curiously.

"There are too many, there are spirit wine, magic tools, talisman seals, pills, spirit beasts and insects. They used to work in various sub-rudders or square cities, and brought back local cultivation resources."

Qian Dafu said.

"Let's do this! Help me keep an eye on the spirit bird eggs! It's better to be a more powerful spirit bird."

Shen Long said that it would be cheaper for him to incubate the eggs by himself if he bought them.

If Shen Long wanted to get a good ranking in the Grand Competition, it would not be enough to rely on the iron-tailed scorpion and the fire rock beast alone. If there was one more spirit bird, the pressure on him to pass the level would be less.

"Awesome spiritual bird eggs? Few people sell spiritual bird eggs. Most of them are hatched and then sold. The price is higher. Let me help you pay attention!"

Qian Dafu agreed.

"Then I will trouble you, Junior Brother Qian. By the way, do you have any quick way to get money? Just hunt monsters and kill them."

Shen Long thanked.

"A way to get money quickly? As far as I know, many of them teamed up to hunt monsters, but for safety reasons, they teamed up with many people and didn't get much property. "Senior Brother Shen, why don't you tell Sister Ye?" You are very close to her to learn the art of making talismans. If you ask her for advice, she should be able to guide you. If you learn how to make talismans, it will be easier for you to earn spirit stones. "

Qian Dafu said.

"I can't afford the cost of trial and error, so I don't plan to learn talisman making for the time being."

Shen Long said truthfully.

He asked Ye Yuqing about it. To make a talisman, you need to buy a talisman pen, cinnabar, blood essence of monsters, and talisman paper. Ye Yuqing just started learning the art of making talismans. He invested more than 300 yuan in spirit stones in the early stage to refine a fireball talisman. .

Some Qi refining monks in Qingyun Peak invested a lot of spirit stones in order to learn how to make talismans. It took more than 500 spirit stones to refine a fireball talisman. The success rate is terrible. Continue to practice and consume thousands of spirit stones. Low, then give up.

Some qi refining monks want to master a skill, and spend a lot of money to learn a skill, but very few succeed, and most of the qi refining monks fail, wasting a lot of spirit stones and time.

Shen Long also knows himself, his financial resources are limited, and he doesn't have many opportunities for trial and error. He is not Ning Qianqian, so he doesn't have to worry about the resources for cultivating immortals.

For the vast number of Qi-refining cultivators of Yulingzong, a trial and error would take several years or even ten years of savings, and they simply cannot afford to lose.

There is a lot of investment in the early stage of any skill, not to mention that the disciples of Yulingzong also raised spirit beasts and insects, which is a heavy burden.

"That's true, let me help you pay attention! If there is a good errand, I will notify you immediately, but don't get your hopes up too much. If there is such a good thing, give priority to the descendants of the heroes or the disciples of the masters and uncles. The disciples are relatives."

Qian Dafu said.

"I understand, let me think of another way!"

Shen Long agreed.

After chatting for a while, Qian Dafu said goodbye and left.

Shen Long Yuqi left Qingyun Peak, came to Free Trade Valley, and wandered around.

He found that there were a lot of new faces in Free Trade Valley, probably the qi refining monks who were transferred from abroad, just to participate in the big competition.

Shen Long came to the Qingshi Square where the stall was set up, and walked around to have a look.

He suddenly quickened his pace and came to a small stall. The owner of the stall was a young girl in a white dress who had the sixth level of Qi Refining.

There are many things on the booth, such as ores, elixir, monster materials and so on.

Shen Long picked up a golden ore, looked at it carefully for a while, then put it down again, picked up a black ore instead, and asked, "How do you sell this ore?"

"This is black cloud stone, which can be used to refine medium-grade magic tools, 30 yuan spirit stone."

The girl in the green skirt said.

"30 yuan? It's too expensive! Your black marble is not big, 25 yuan."

Shen Long bargained.

"The minimum is 28 yuan, no less."

The girl in the green skirt said.

Shen Long didn't make any further counter-offers, and happily paid off the Lingshi.

He wandered around the square and looked around, but didn't buy anything.

Leaving Qingshi Square, he came to the door of a three-story golden attic with the three characters "Golden Toad Building" written on the plaque.

This is the shop opened by Jin Chan Zhenren, usually managed by his disciples.

Shen Long strode in. The lobby is spacious and bright, and there are many things on the shelves.

Behind the long cyan counter stood some attendants in green shirts, introducing products to customers.

These attendants in green shirts are all disciples of Yulingzong. They get paid for their work here, and Free Trade Valley provides some jobs.

Shen Long walked to a section of the counter, took out the piece of black ore, handed it to an attendant in green clothes, and said, "This junior brother, how many spirit stones can you produce?"

"This is black cloud stone, we can produce 25 spirit stones, how about it?"

The attendant in green shirt checked it carefully and said.

Shen Long shook his head, expressing his dissatisfaction with the price.

"27, no more."

The attendant in green shirt said.

"Junior, find someone else to take a look! If it's Mo Yunshi, I don't need to sell it here."

Shen Long said via voice transmission.

The blue-clothed attendant pondered for a moment, put down the ore, turned and left.

Not long after, he walked over with a man in a blue shirt in his early 40s.

The man in the blue shirt looked carefully at the black ore and said, "This is black stone! It's easy to confuse black stone with black stone. Senior brother is very skilled. We are willing to pay 150 spirit stones to buy it. How about it?"

"This is the material for refining a high-grade magic weapon, two hundred."

Shen Long bargained.

"Your black stone is a bit small, it's not worth so much, one hundred and seven."

The man in the blue shirt said.

"Let's each make a concession, one hundred and nine!"

Shen Long said.

"No, at most one hundred and eighty, this is the highest price we can offer."

The man in the blue shirt said.

"Okay! Deal."

Shen Long agreed, and just by changing hands, he earned 150 pieces of Lingshi. This was the first time he missed something in more than two years since he started.

The man in the blue shirt took out 180 spirit stones and put them on the counter. Shen Long confirmed that they were correct, put them in the storage bag, and left the Golden Chan Tower.

After returning to his residence, Shen Long walked into a secret room, sat down cross-legged, and practiced.

Not long after, a cloud of blue light emerged from Shen Long's body, covering his whole body.

In the early morning of the next day, when the sky just dawned, Shen Long walked out of Qingmei Courtyard and walked towards Lingshan Pavilion.

After breakfast, he went to the Teaching Pavilion to listen to lectures. After Sun Sen's lecture was over, Shen Long went to Yanwu Peak to practice wind blade technique after lunch, and then continued to listen to lectures in the Teaching Pavilion in the afternoon.

Shen Long resumed his old life, which was boring but fulfilling.

A month passed quickly, and at noon that day, Shen Long was eating at the Lingshan Pavilion.
