Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 139 Cultivation
After the situation in Shengtian settled, Wu Dynasty fell into complete chaos.

The various grassland tribes brought by Tuvahar were naturally unwilling to lose and return to the grassland.

The imperial city could no longer be defended. These tribes from the grasslands had retreated to Yunzhou, and they had formed a considerable force.

However, there was no longer Tuvahar to provide them with life-saving talismans. Faced with the constant assassinations by Maple Kingdom warriors, such resistance could not last long after all.

The restoration of Feng Dynasty is just around the corner.

Of course, these things have nothing to do with Li Qing. After killing Tuwahar, he got the Immortal Token and the "Tu Yuan Jue" and secluded himself in the blacksmith shop again.

No matter how troubled the world situation and martial arts world were, he didn't want to pay any attention to it.

A month passed quietly. Li Qing, who had been meditating on "Tu Yuan Jue" during this period, only felt his scalp was a little numb.

Because he hasn't started practicing it for a month, this cultivation technique is much more difficult than he thought.

"The gap between immortality and martial arts is so huge." Li Qing sighed, wondering if he really had no spiritual roots and could not cultivate immortality.

However, Li Qing has no intention of giving up. Everything is difficult at the beginning, and he has a lot of life to try slowly.

During this period of time, he forged many sophisticated weapons. Although they were not magic weapons, their quality was quite good.

Thinking of this, Li Qing glanced at his remaining lifespan, and the number 170 was clearly visible.

Yes, by forging those weapons, his lifespan not only did not decrease, but actually increased slightly.

In addition to the five years of life gained by successfully forging the Wandering Dragon Dagger, he can now live to be over two hundred years old!
The only problem is that forging an ordinary weapon can only increase one's lifespan by one month.

Fortunately, he still owns a small piece of meteorite iron, which was left over after forging the Wandering Dragon Dagger.

The weight is not much, and the total is only about the size of two fists. It is impossible to use it to forge weapons. You can only grind some of them out at a time, blend them into the bone-penetrating nails, and forge them into a deadly hidden weapon, the death nail!
Li Qing, who had been meditating on "Tu Yuan Jue" for such a long time, was already a little sleepy and was about to close his eyes and sleep for a while.

However, not long after, he was keenly aware of extremely subtle movements coming from the beams of the room. If he had not been in the realm of a martial arts master, he might not have been able to detect it.

Hearing this movement, Li Qing just smiled slightly and did not open his eyes. Instead, he still kept his eyes closed and fell asleep.

Soon, a hand quietly touched the snow-silver dragon dagger attached to his waist.

Snapped!
In the darkness, Li Qing captured the movement of the thieving hand with a precise and neat slap.

"You guy, you don't understand the "Tu Yuan Jue" well. You have been trying to get things from me for a month, and this time you even want to steal my Dragon Dagger."

"Next time, I will chop off your hand."

Li Qing's tone was not filled with anger, but rather with a bit of joking. It was obvious that he knew who the thief was.

"Hehe, I said Brother Li, you are so boring. You have become a martial arts master and you still stare at that book of immortality cultivation techniques all day long. You are still awake at this hour."

"Have you just finished comprehending "Tu Yuan Jue"?"

While the speaker was scolding, he lighted the oil lamp in the blacksmith shop with ease, illuminating the room.

At this time, Li Qing also opened his eyes and looked at the person in front of him.

Yes, it was Ning Yuan, the star-catching thief he rescued from the palace a month ago.

After the two came out of the palace, their relationship had improved a lot. They were not close friends, but there was no problem drinking together.

I saw Ning Yuan holding a jar of Li Qing's favorite winter plum wine in his hand, sitting on the table minding his own business, and poured a glass for himself and Li Qing.

"Come and try it. This jar of winter plums is aged. It's at least three to fifty years old. It's regarded as a treasure by the Taoyuan Restaurant. It won't even sell it. It took me a lot of effort to get it. .”

Looking at this familiar posture, people who don't know may think that Ning Yuan is the master here.

When Li Qing saw this, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes, but he still sat down obediently, wanting to taste the taste of the winter plum wine aged in this jar.

"You guy, can't you remember the lesson from the palace? You still do some sneaky things." Li Qing teased.

At this point, Ning Yuan bared his teeth and grinned: "Damn it, who knows that the dog emperor of the prairie would actually set up a trap in his secret vault, and he is not afraid of hurting himself."

"And who said I don't have a long memory? Look what this is!"

With that said, Ning Yuan spread out his clothes, revealing a layer of soft armor underneath.

Seeing this scene, Li Qing couldn't help but burst into laughter, thinking that this guy was really a living treasure.

His so-called long memory does not mean giving up stealing, but putting on an extra layer of protective armor when stealing.

In this regard, Li Qing didn't know what to say, but he just reluctantly persuaded: "It is not easy to get such a book of immortal cultivation techniques. It is something that many emperors dream of. If you don't practice well, you will always waste your time on this. It’s a real pity!”

In fact, after the relationship between the two improved, Li Qing didn't mind letting Ning Yuan copy a copy of "Tu Yuan Jue" and let him practice together, so that the two of them could be companions.

However, Li Qing would definitely not return the so-called Immortal Token to him. Ning Yuan had stolen it from Jiulian Sect anyway, so he had no psychological burden at all on this.

Having said this, Ning Yuan's expression dimmed slightly, but soon returned to normal. "Hey, who said I don't want to cultivate immortality, but just a few days ago I thoroughly understood the technique, sensed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth as mentioned above, and tried to refine the energy into my body, but there was no so-called feeling of refining energy at all. .”

"Probably, I should be a person without spiritual roots."

"Forget it, forget it, you can't cultivate immortality without spiritual roots, and I'm too lazy to try. What's the matter, you haven't given up yet?"

Faced with this problem, Li Qing was embarrassed to say that he had not yet started, and he had not even started to try to operate according to the big and small Zhou Tian mentioned in the technique.

"Ahem, cough, cough, maybe it's because the spiritual energy here is thin, so it's so difficult to sense it?" Li Qing said tentatively.

"Probably not. I may just not have the spiritual root qualifications, but that's normal. Didn't you say that there is only one person in a million who has spiritual roots?" Ning Yuan said nonchalantly.

"Okay, okay, let's have a drink."

All of a sudden, the two clinked glasses, and the strong aroma of wine filled the room, which was quite intoxicating.

Ning Yuan, who was slightly drunk, cursed and said: "This stupid Taoyuan Restaurant is definitely exaggerating. The age of this winter plum wine is at most ten years, and it is absolutely impossible to have three to fifty years."

Li Qing didn't care at all. Instead, he took advantage of his drunkenness to ask Ning Yuan overtly and covertly about how he used his skills for a week.

Finally, Ning Yuan also heard something was wrong. He looked sideways at Li Qing and said, "Brother Li, you haven't fully understood this technique yet, have you?"

"There are only four floors in total, and you haven't even entered the first floor yet?!"

In this regard, Li Qing had no choice but to nod and admit the fact that his understanding was relatively poor.

This made Ning Yuan feel a little incredible. He thought that a great martial arts master could have such poor understanding? !
But then he thought that Li Qing was very talented in forging weapons, and forging magical weapons was nothing more than a piece of cake for him.

Thinking of this, the slight sense of self-confidence that had just arisen was dispelled.

People are indeed different.

"Come, let me teach you how to calm down and let your mind sink into your body."

Ning Yuan immediately used his inner strength to dispel his drunkenness, and instead acted as Li Qing's guide, teaching him how to move the heavens according to the instructions in the technique.

According to what Ning Yuan said, Li Qing recalled the contents recorded in "Tu Yuan Jue" and suddenly understood a lot.

"How is it? Can you sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth?" Ning Yuan blinked and asked curiously.

At this time, Li Qing no longer had the intention to respond to him, because his mind was completely immersed in running "Tu Yuan Jue".

Suddenly, he noticed that there seemed to be traces of magical substances wrapped around his body, surging towards his body's meridians.

This should be the spiritual energy of heaven and earth? !
Li Qing was shocked and happy in his heart, and almost fell out of the state of cultivation, but he quickly calmed down and refined the spiritual energy like the energy of heaven and earth into his meridians, and then gathered it towards his Dantian.

After a long time, after a week, he could clearly feel that there was indeed a little more mana in his Dantian.

Although it is a bit pitiful and can even be ignored, it is indeed obtained through his training in "Tu Yuan Jue"!

He has magic power, he has spiritual roots, and he can practice this immortal cultivation technique!
Thinking of this, Li Qing's breathing became rapid, and he almost couldn't hold back the urge to cry.

Damn, after working hard for a month, I finally got started!

It’s true that the emperor has paid off his hard work!

Li Qing slowly opened his eyes, his expression a little complicated.

Ning saw the situation and asked tentatively: "How is it? If you sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, can you refine the energy into your body as the technique says?"

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you can't sense it. You are now a martial arts master. If you don't have the so-called spiritual roots, you don't have them. It's so carefree and comfortable to be a martial arts master in the human world!"

"In the worst case, this immortal cultivation technique will be passed on to future generations. Let's see if the descendants have any."

Before he finished speaking, Ning Yuan noticed something was wrong with Li Qing's expression. He tried to ask again: "You can't practice, can you?"

Li Qing just smiled and said nothing.

"Damn you!"

Ning Yuan probably knew what this meant. Ning Yuan was so angry that he was so angry that he kept scolding this thief for being so unfair.

How come someone has such outstanding talent in martial arts and has entered the realm of a master at such a young age? Moreover, he is so good at blacksmithing that he can forge peerless magic weapons that are difficult for ordinary people to find!

Forget it, this person still has the legendary spiritual root and can cultivate immortality.

Even though Ning Yuan has always been open-minded, he can't stand it anymore.

Compared with others, the gap is really too big!
"Ahem, Brother Ning, thank you very much for your advice today." Li Qing coughed and said.

However, Ning Yuan's face showed a look of despair, and he no longer knew what to say to comfort himself.
