Unsurpassed Spirits

Chapter 197 Entrusting Alchemy
Lu Heng rummaged through his storage bag, found his communication talisman and handed it to her, "Your master is far away in Nanzhao. If you encounter any trouble in the Central Plains, water far away cannot solve the fire close. After all, we are still old." Now that we know each other, if you really get into trouble, you can try to send me a message. If I'm nearby, I might even come over and help."

Luo Qingli reached out to take it, thought for a moment and then asked: "Senior Chengfeng, forgive me for speaking frankly, do you care for all the juniors in this way?"

Although she and Lu Heng were old acquaintances, their friendship was really average. Previously, he had taken action to force the people back from Taoyao Immortal City. Perhaps he had drawn his sword to help when he saw an injustice, but now he specially gave her a communication talisman to call on him. It would be overzealous to follow suit.

"Hey, you little girl, don't I look like an idler?"

Lu Heng feigned annoyance and glanced at her sideways, then shook his head and said, "Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you that many years ago, before I was even born, the Thunder God Dao Pagoda owed a favor to True Lord Jinghong. Since you are now I am a disciple of True Lord Jinghong, and I am also a disciple of Thunder God Tao Pagoda. Isn’t it right for me to pay more attention to you?”

Not because she is Luo Qingli, but because she is Song Jinghong's apprentice.

Luo Qingli was stunned. She really didn't expect that it was because of this incident, and the master had never told her.

However, Lu Heng is 59 years old this year. It is normal that Master has not mentioned to her what happened in an era when he was not even born.

Knowing the reason, Luo Qingli took away Lu Heng's communication talisman with peace of mind. Seeing this, Lu Heng said again: "But let me say it first, the area of ​​the Central Plains is much larger than Nanzhao. If the distance is too large, It's far away, and the messenger talisman can't reach it, so don't blame me for breaking my promise then."

Luo Qingli couldn't help but laugh, "Senior Chengfeng was joking."

Lu Heng carried her flying at high speed in the air, surrounded by clouds and smoke. The high-altitude wind was blocked by the protective shield, and the scene under her feet was also vaguely visible in the clouds and mist.

Lu Heng was not a taciturn person, probably because they were old acquaintances. He did not show Luo Qingli's profile as a Jindan cultivator, but just chatted with her casually like an old friend, and gradually started talking about those years. The first time we met at the blacksmith shop in Daqu City.

"You were as strong as a calf at that time. I didn't even notice that you were a girl at first glance. But now you have lost weight. Why don't you train?"

Luo Qingli said helplessly: "That was originally one of the links in body training, and it was also a necessary stage. I am still practicing body training, but now I am practicing both body and law."

Lu Heng knew clearly, looking at the color of her escaping light, that she, like her master Jinghong Zhenjun, both practiced ice spells.

"Senior Chengfeng, you are from the Thunder God Tao Tower in the Central Plains. So is Boss Yan?"

Lu Heng's eyes flashed slightly and he said calmly: "Yes, my second uncle is also from the Central Plains, but later due to some reasons, he left the Central Plains and settled in Nanzhao. I will occasionally go over to see him."

Luo Qingli nodded. As for why Lu Heng, who was already in the late stage of foundation building, had to pretend to be a Qi Refining monk and sneak into the Yaowang City trial tower, she couldn't ask more questions.

It only took Lu Heng three days to take her to the nearest immortal cultivation town to Chiyan Cave.

Before letting her down, Lu Heng explained: "There are many dangerous and secret places in the Central Plains. You can practice here, but there are some special places that you cannot easily set foot in without reaching a certain level of cultivation, otherwise you will be seeking your own death."

What he was talking about was nothing more than the Red Flame Cave not far away.

Not to mention her cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building, even if Lu Heng is already a Golden Core cultivator, the Red Flame Cave is not something he can just break into.

"Thank you, senior Chengfeng, I understand." Luo Qingli bowed.

Lu Heng didn't stay any longer and dropped her in the small town. He said "Goodbye when we are destined" and left her again.

Taking a ride from a Jindan monk saved a lot of time. Luo Qingli didn't have to rush on the road. He asked for a room at an inn in the city and rested for a few days before heading to Chiyan Cave again on his own.

This is a desolate volcano group, rolling and red, and the heat waves can be felt from a distance.

Chiyan Cave is not a cave, but refers to a mountain range here. The red rocks are a major feature of this place. From a distance, you can see that there are caves of various sizes scattered on these rocks. Inside these caves, there are Some are inhabited by monsters, while others are empty.

This is just the outskirts of the Red Flame Cave. Most monsters below the fifth level live here. Monsters have a very strong sense of territory. Some non-social monsters, once they dominate the mountain and become kings, will not allow other monsters or humans. It violates the territory unless other monsters defeat it and expel it.

Luo Qingli chose a very remote hilltop and asked Xiao Wu to release his spiritual power. The pressure of the fifth-level monsters outside the Red Flame Cave was enough to frighten the monsters here. The monsters in the cave felt the pressure of this level. They were suppressed and instinctively left the cave and fled in all directions.

After confirming that there were no monsters in the mountain, Luo Qingli found a cave for temporary placement.

"Xiao Wu, how long will it take for the second young master to arrive?"

Xiao Wu held the seven-star conch in his mouth and said "wuwu", and after a while he wagged his tail and replied: "Second Young Master will go to Chiyan Cave in about one day. Master, let's wait here for a while."

Luo Qingli had exactly this intention.

The monsters that live in the Red Flame Cave are basically fire-type. This place is originally a volcano group with many underground fire veins intertwined. The fire aura in the cave is very abundant, which has given rise to many unique creatures. things.

The cave she chose was originally the nest of a fourth-level fire cloud beast. There were a lot of flame grass growing in the cave. This is a spiritual grass that only grows in places with abundant fire energy. The gang that was in the seabed trial camp earlier In the wind forest, the heart-warming pill that Ning Shen took out was made from the flame grass as the main medicine.

The age of the flame grass in the cave is not very old, the most is two or three hundred years old. This kind of spiritual grass can only be used for certain specific elixirs. Luo Qingli picked some older ones and turned around. I saw Xiao Wu lying lazily on the ground, his flippers stroking every now and then, and his head rubbing against the stone wall of the cave.

"Xiao Wu, why don't you go back to the spirit beast bag? You are a sea beast and naturally like water. You may not be able to adapt to the environment here."

The spirit beast bag is a place specially used to place spirit beasts. The temperature inside is normal all year round and the environment is suitable. The spirit beasts can practice directly inside regardless of external conditions.

Xiao Wu blinked and shook his head, "Master, I'm fine. I'm quite adaptable to the environment here."

As it said, it lowered its long neck and brought its head to her. Its eyes were watery and aggrieved, "Master, Xiao Wu's horns are itchy, but my hands are too short and I can't scratch them..."

Luo Qingli was startled for a moment, then burst into laughter and stretched out his hand to scratch its corners. Xiao Wu squinted his eyes and hummed in comfort.

Xiao Wu's horns were different from other silver-horned dragons. There were circles of red patterns on its horns. When Luo Qingli scratched its horns, he found that its horns were generating heat.

"Xiaowu, why are your horns so warm?"

Luo Qingli remembered that when he touched the horn on Xiao Wu's head, his tentacles felt bright and cool, which was completely different from now.

Xiao Wu was stunned, "Is that so? No wonder Xiao Wu feels itchy." "In addition to itching? Are there any other feelings? Is there any discomfort?"

Xiaowu felt it carefully and shook his head.

Luo Qingli couldn't help but frown. She was not a professional beast master, and her knowledge of monsters was limited to books. Although the Encyclopedia of Sea Beasts she bought on the coast of the East China Sea also mentioned Silver Horned Dragons, there were no records about them. Very rarely, she couldn't figure out why Xiao Wu was in this situation.

After thinking about it carefully, this started after arriving at Chiyan Cave. Maybe it has something to do with the environment.

Luo Qingli put Xiao Wu back into the spirit beast bag, and after a while he heard it say: "Xiao Wu is no longer itchy."

She let out a breath and thought it was indeed the environment.

But if Yinjiao Chenglong stays in an environment with sufficient fire spirit energy, will his head get hot?

If there is a chance later, I still have to find a beast master to ask.

Luo Qingli set up many formations on the spot and waited patiently. After about a day, there was a sudden huge movement outside the cave. She put away the formations and went out to take a look.

Dark clouds covered the sun outside the Red Flame Cave, and countless birds and beasts within a radius of dozens of miles were running away, roaring in fear, and running away from the Red Flame Cave.

From a distance, one could feel a burst of boundless coercion. Many low-level monsters were frightened out of their wits and fell to the ground, trembling all over.

In her impression, there was only one person who showed up in such a pretentious way.

Luo Qingli was speechless, feeling that the spiritual power oppressing her body was getting stronger and stronger. She used the Wind-fixing Bead to condense a blue and green barrier. In the distance, she could see three black spots approaching quickly in her direction.

Among the three of them, the one at the front was undoubtedly Yan Jin, and only two of the original four great demons came, namely Hu Li and Black Eagle.

The pressure of the three people spread almost throughout the Red Flame Cave. Yan Jin himself was at the peak of the seventh level, and the other two were serious demon cultivators of the eighth level and above.

Luo Qingli's spiritual consciousness was stronger than it was then, and with the Wind-fixing Pearl acting as a buffer, he was barely able to stabilize his body in front of them.

"Second Young Master." Luo Qingli raised his hand and saluted.

Xiao Wu quietly raised his head in the spirit beast bag.

There is a strict hierarchy among the monster beasts, and the bloodline realms of these three people are all noble. Xiao Wu felt a little breathless even if he was in the spirit beast bag.

Although he had spoken to Yan Jin more than once through the Seven-Star Conch, this was the first time it had seen a real person, and he couldn't help but be curious.

Yan Jin's appearance was no different from that of a human monk. Only his eyes were light amber. His gaze swept across Luo Qingli, and his spiritual power disappeared in an instant. Hu Li and Heiying also withdrew their pressure.

The black shadow still had a dark face and ignored her, but Hu Li raised his hand and greeted her with a smile, "Little girl, long time no see. How are you?"

Luo Qingli returned the salute, raised his head and asked, "I wonder why the second young master came to me?"

Zhen Jin stood in the air and looked down at her. After a while, he glanced at Hu Li and said, "Take her with you to the center."

Hu Li smiled and tapped his fingertips. Luo Qingli suddenly felt light and was pulled to their side. The four of them walked towards the depths of the Red Flame Cave. That was where Luo Qingli could not do anything alone. A place you dare to visit.

The deeper you go in, the richer the color of the red soil becomes. The high-level monsters deep in the Red Flame Cave sensed the intrusion of outsiders, and each one let out a threatening roar in dissatisfaction. However, under the double suppression of Hu Li and Heiying, Then, he immediately clamped his tail and did not dare to snort any more.

They took her all the way to a mountain col in the center, where thousand-year-old flame grass was everywhere, and she even saw a few rare spiritual plants.

Luo Qingli's eyes brightened slightly, and the next moment everyone stopped in the col.

Zhen Jin found a spot on the surrounding mountain wall, opened a well-hidden stone door, and turned around to see Luo Qingli excitedly picking spiritual herbs on the ground.

Hu Li narrowed his eyes, Black Eagle sneered slightly with disdain on his face, Yan Jin's face darkened slightly, and said coldly: "Luo Qingli!"

Luo Qingli threw a 2000-year-old fire ganoderma into the jade box and said, "Here it comes." Then he dug up a 3000-year-old fire ganoderma.

Walking along the stone gate is a long and narrow corridor. As soon as you enter, a burst of boiling fire energy hits your face.

The temperature in the center of the Red Flame Cave is even higher. The other three are all demon cultivators and have been protected from the cold and heat for a long time. However, she, a foundation-building cultivator, can't stand it, and most of these big demons will not think of her embarrassment.

Luo Qingli ran the Xuan Bing Jue once, causing the cold air to penetrate his whole body, but it was not a long-term solution.

Suddenly, a red light fell on her body, forming a protective shield to isolate the scorching air. Luo Qingli was startled, and heard Yan Jin, who was leading the way with his back to her, humming softly: "Save it. The spiritual power will be useful later.”

At the end of the tunnel is a huge fire pit, filled with rolling lava, sparks flying everywhere, and bubbles spitting out.

The rocks around this pit are very solid, and occasionally you can see some fiery red stones mixed in between them. It is a kind of high-grade refining material, fire jade, which can only be produced in an environment similar to this.

Luo Qingli was observing the surroundings. Yan Jin suddenly turned around and said calmly: "I heard that you got the top spot in the alchemy master examination and refined the seventh-level elixir?"

"Yes."

Zhen Jin narrowed his eyes, "I came to you this time to entrust you with refining a kind of elixir. After that, I can provide you with countless high-level animal blood."

Luo Qingli had expected it in advance, and she was not surprised at all when she heard this request. Just as she was about to ask carefully what kind of pill it was, Yan Jin suddenly said solemnly: "Before that, I want you to swear an oath not to swear to anyone." He leaked a few words about this matter and also promised that he would do his best to refine elixirs for me without any intention of slacking off."
