Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 1027: Deep into the Wilderness
The most popular type of wine on the grassland is animal milk wine, which is made from milk from magical animals.

Animal milk wine like this often has a lighter taste, and you can't taste much of it, but it is full of a milky aroma and a faint fishy smell. The older the animal milk wine is, the sourer it tastes, so most people on the grassland like to drink animal milk wine that has just been brewed. This kind of wine is smooth in the mouth, sweet with a slight sour taste, and tastes excellent.

After rescuing Wan Shengtian's family of three, Li Qing returned to the Hanging Mountain and drank the beast milk wine for several days.

Of course, some dried meat of spiritual beasts is indispensable during the period. They are all some monster meats that are special products of Xiyunzhou. They are really a great side dish for drinking.

Li Qing was not stingy at all. He took out a lot of spiritual wine that he had carried with him and drank it happily with Wan Shengtian.

After being together for a few days and catching up on the past, Li Qing, who was drunk, patted his body and prepared to say goodbye.

"Well, it's time for me to leave the human race and go to the wilderness to look for the trace of the Earth's Core Jade Milk."

"I'm sorry to bother you these days, Brother Wan. I'll take my leave now."

Hearing this, Wan Shengtian showed hesitation. He said, "Why are you leaving so quickly? It's rare for us to meet each other. Why don't you stay a few more days?"

The tipsy Li Qing waved his hands and said, "There is a long way to go, a long way to go. When I finish my important business, I will come back and have a drink with you."

At this time, Wan Shengtian's wife walked into the cave, holding some wine and food that she had just bought from the market.

After getting to know each other over the past few days, Li Qing also learned that Wan Shengtian's Taoist partner was actually the descendant of the former Wanbao Chamber of Commerce cultivator, and also had the surname Wan.

The couple looked at each other, and finally nodded as if they had made some decision, and looked at Li Qing again.

"Fellow Daoist Li, have you ever heard of the Wanbao Ancient Realm? It was an independent realm built by the Wanbao ancestor himself. It contained countless spiritual stones as numerous as sand and dust, and countless treasures."

As soon as these words came out, Li Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, and he said, "Of course I have heard of it. It is said that the Wanbao Ancient Realm is second only to some secret realms left behind from the Immortal Realm."

"But I also heard that this so-called Wanbao Ancient World is just a legend passed down by word of mouth and should not be taken seriously."

Soon, Wan Shengtian’s wife Wan Feiyun said seriously: “No, the Wanbao Ancient World does exist, and it opens every thousand years. There are only less than two hundred years left before the next opening.”

Li Qing narrowed his eyes. His expression seemed calm, but in fact, a storm was brewing in his heart.

The ancient world of Wanbao, which was regarded as a legend, actually exists!
There was no need to think about it, it must be top secret, and now Wan Shengtian and his wife actually told him such a shocking secret openly.

Li Qing stood up and sat back down. He picked up the wine pot and poured himself a glass of wine. After drinking it all, he whispered, "Brother Wan, you two told me such a top secret. Aren't you afraid that I will do something bad like Lord Youshan?"

Wan Shengtian smiled bitterly and said, "Your character is worthy of our trust. If it were that vicious Lord Youshan, even if we revealed the secret, we would probably end up in a miserable situation."

"Besides, you saved my entire family's lives this time. I really cannot repay you for such a great favor."

After hearing this, Li Qing still looked calm. He took a sip of the sake in the cup and said, "Brother Wan, why are you telling me this secret?"

Obviously, he was also very interested in the long-rumored Wanbao Ancient World.

"To be honest, if you want to enter the Wanbao Ancient World, only the direct bloodline of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce can enter it."

"And each direct bloodline can only enter once in this lifetime, but when entering, they can bring an outsider to act as a protector."

"Next time the Wanbao Ancient Realm opens, I would like to invite you, Brother Li, to go with my family!"

“My wife and daughter are both direct descendants, but they have never entered the Wanbao Ancient Realm.”

"It's because this world is actually full of dangers. Although there are countless secret treasures, there is also the risk of death. If you are not a cultivator in the fusion stage, I'm afraid you won't be able to pass the first level."

Li Qing showed an interested look. The opportunity to enter the Wanbao Ancient World was hard to come by. Anyone would be crazy for it.

He seemed to have no reason to refuse, so after thinking for a while, Li Qing agreed to it.

"Okay, I agree to this. I will come back to find you in a hundred years."

"Before that, I have some things of my own to do."

"How about this, you go to Xinghe City in the human territory. If Fairy Xiao Wan is interested, you can join the Liantian Pavilion and become my registered disciple."

"What do you think about this?"

Join the Liantian Pavilion! You can also worship a cultivator in the fusion stage as your master!
This is what ordinary cultivators dream of, and the couple showed joy upon hearing this.

"That's certainly the best! It's a blessing for my daughter to become Brother Li's disciple." Madam Wan said happily.

In this way, Li Qing's Wuji Hall had one more registered disciple.

Originally, with his identity and status as an ordinary weapon refining elder, he could only accept one personal disciple and two registered disciples at most.

But he is now a great cultivator in the fusion stage. Although he has not yet been promoted to the supreme elder of the pavilion, this level of cultivation is enough to make other people shut up.

"This is the token of my Wuji Palace. With this token, you can report directly to Liantian Pavilion and be exempted from all assessments to become my registered disciple."

"Okay, I still have important things to do, so I won't stay any longer." Li Qing clasped his fists and left Wanshengtian's cave in a decisive manner.

"Brother Li, take care!"

After coming out of the Hanging Mountain, Li Qing did not stop at all and flew straight out of the human territory.

He galloped all the way, flying over the grassland, and the dangerous and mysterious wilderness appeared before his eyes.

"According to the intelligence, we should head south next. There is a hole in the ground near the Tengu tribe's territory. There are suspected signs of the Earth Core Jade Breast in the hole."

"The Tengu tribe?"

This tribe is very peculiar. There are dog-headed people and winged spirit dogs among them.

They have never interfered with the human race and can be considered a neutral race.

But if there is a conflict of interest, this tribe will not give up and can easily call on many tribesmen to come for support. They are extremely united!

"I hope this trip will be successful in finding the Earth's Core Jade Breast!"

Two months later, Li Qing had truly gone deep into the wilderness. Everywhere was filled with a primitive and wild atmosphere. Big trees rose from the ground, and their lush canopies blocked out the sun.

Even though Li Qing has advanced to the fusion stage, he still has to remain extremely vigilant in this wilderness.

Because not long ago, he saw a seventh-stage ancient beast going through a great heavenly tribulation that occurs once every three thousand years. The terrifying sea of ​​tribulation even made him feel terrified.

"No wonder if your cultivation level is not at the Fusion Stage, it is best not to enter the Great Wilderness. Once you really encounter a crisis, it is almost impossible for people with cultivation levels below the Fusion Stage to survive."

As he spoke, Li Qing felt a pure water-attributed spiritual power in this primeval forest full of towering trees.

His spiritual sense was triggered, and his divine consciousness immediately swept out, taking in the scenery ahead. There was actually an open area in front of him, with jagged rocks surrounding a small blue lake.

There was thick mist accumulated above the lake, like a dark cloud, completely blocking the sunlight in the sky.

The next moment, Li Qing's mouth couldn't help but open.

What did he see? There were several thorn trees intertwined in the center of the lake, and each thorn-like branch had a round, plump, and shiny dark green fruit.

The cloudy scenery on the lake was caused by these fruits. Li Qing couldn't help but exclaimed: "Looking at the state of the Xuanyun Fruit, it's probably been absorbing and exhaling water-attributed spiritual energy for at least five thousand years!"

Li Qing took a deep breath, his eyes shining brightly.

Xuanyun Fruit can only grow in natural spiritual lakes with rich spiritual energy. Once it is more than a thousand years old, a cultivator in the fusion stage can swallow it to make his Nascent Soul much stronger and his cultivation level can also be slightly improved.

"Four Xuanyun fruits that are at least five thousand years old. They are the diluted precious medicine. If I can get them, they can solidify the Nascent Soul by 40% in advance!" Li Qing said with burning eyes, his heart pounding.

If one wants to advance from the Fusion Stage to the Mahayana Stage, one of the important hurdles is to solidify one's own Nascent Soul so that it has the same level of strength as the original body.

And it is precisely because of this factor that many cultivators in the fusion stage are flocking to this kind of precious medicine, making the number of Xuanyun Fruits extremely scarce nowadays, even rare.

Although he was envious, Li Qing knew that there must be something wrong!
Several priceless Xuanyun fruits have been growing openly for five thousand years. No matter how you think about it, it doesn't seem right.

There are many monsters and ancient beasts in the wilderness, so how could they allow a few Xuanyun fruits to grow for so long? This spiritual fruit is of great benefit to both the monster clan and the ancient beasts.

The vigilant Li Qing did not approach rashly, but took out a few low-level puppets that he always carried with him and drove them with his divine consciousness to approach the blue lake.

If there was no danger, he would directly let these low-level puppets pick the Xuanyun Fruit. If there was danger, he would not feel bad about losing a few low-level puppets.

These low-level puppets were still safe and sound until they reached the lakeside, but just as they were about to touch the water, ripples appeared on the surface of the water and a thorn shot out from the bottom of the water.

Swish!
Four third-level puppets that were comparable to Jindan stage cultivators were pierced through. There was only one sound, which meant that the speed of the bramble was extremely fast and it pierced through several low-level puppets almost at the same time.

The puppet fell to the lakeside in pieces, and all the spiritual patterns in its core were absorbed.

"Tree demon?" Li Qing exclaimed. If it was really just a tree demon, then he really had nothing to be afraid of!

The next moment, he summoned the Xianjian Sword.

Dark purple sword lights crisscrossed the air, and in a flash, thousands of sword shadows appeared out of thin air.

The numerous sword shadows swept towards the lake, heading straight for the four Xuanyun fruits.

Boom!

The water surface exploded, and this time a large number of tree roots emerged from the water, turning into a cage that covered the four Xuanyun fruits.

The sword shadow of Xianjian slashed down, but the result was far beyond Li Qing's expectations. Even the killing sword of the earth-grade spiritual treasure level could not do anything to these tree roots?
"So tough? It might be a seventh-level tree demon."

As expected, after Li Qing finished speaking, the towering trees in the surrounding woods seemed to come alive at this moment.

Boom! Boom!
People move to live, trees move to die.

But this sentence may not be applicable in the current situation. The towering trees instantly turned into tree men and began to move towards the center of the lake, forming a natural encirclement.

Swish!
A heavy branch swept towards Li Qing, bringing with it a strong wind.

A cold light flashed in Li Qing's eyes, the blood in his body circulated, and he punched out with an extremely domineering force.

Click!

The branch shattered and exploded, but it was not over yet. Li Qing roared and his blood rushed into the sky.

In an instant, dozens of towering trees in the surrounding area exploded. The physique comparable to that of a seventh-level demon was too strong and overbearing. Even a simple punch seemed like a killing move.

Li Qing pushed his way out from the encirclement of these towering trees and rushed directly to the edge of the lake.

This time he crossed the lake in his physical body, wanting to directly pick the four Xuanyun fruits.

The mysterious tree demon clan has not appeared until now. It seems that they are extremely confident in the tree root cage in the water. They do not believe that Li Qing can break through this cage and take away the Xuanyun Fruit.

Immediately afterwards, Li Qing's hands were covered by a layer of illusory flames.

Immortal technique, flame of Taixu!
boom!
The immortal fire burned silently, and the cage formed by the tree roots was instantly burned to ashes, revealing a gap.

"Thank you, my friend from the tree demon tribe. You have taken good care of these four Xuanyun fruits. I gladly accept them."

Li Qing grabbed four Xuanyun fruits and put them into the treasure of the cave immediately.

In a flash, an even larger tree root cage rushed out from the ground, this time covering the entire lake, apparently intending to trap Li Qing.

"Haha, if my friend doesn't reveal his true form, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep me here."

"Goodbye, no need to send me off!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a strong silver light emerged from Li Qing's body. He naturally activated the strange light of space to enhance his ability to travel a thousand miles with one thought.

There was a flash of silver light, and his figure disappeared above the lake. The cage was empty, the man was gone, and the Xuanyun Fruit was gone too.

The place suddenly became calm, but not long after, a large number of bubbles appeared in the lake, and then the water level dropped rapidly until it dried up completely.

"The strange flames of the cunning human race are too dangerous. Fortunately, they did not reveal their true form, otherwise we would be in a lot of trouble today."

"A cultivator in the early stage of fusion actually possesses this kind of flame. His power is comparable to that of a human master who has comprehended the law of fire."

Along with a fearful voice, the dry lake bottom began to vibrate with quite a loud noise, like a dragon turning over. It seemed that the mysterious tree demon clan did not intend to stay here any longer and was moving to another place.

Thousands of miles away, a silver light suddenly flashed, and Li Qing's figure appeared from the void.

After advancing to the fusion stage, he can use the magical light of space to bless his innate magical power to travel a thousand miles with a thought, and can teleport more than two thousand miles at a time.

However, this kind of magical power consumes a lot of mana, and generally speaking, no cultivator in the fusion stage would use it to travel.

Li Qing, who was standing in the void, was slightly startled. He saw a huge stone statue in the distance. It was a dog-headed man with wings behind him.

Tengu statue! We have arrived at the Tengu tribe’s territory!
