Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 250 Red Crystal
In the cave, Taoist Qingyang looked at the repaired bronze tripod with a look of satisfaction.

"Not bad, not bad. I think Fellow Taoist Erniu's weapon refining level can be called a master of martial arts."

Faced with the praise from Taoist Qingyang, Li Qingke didn't feel arrogant at all. He knew that he still had a long way to go.

"Senior, that's ridiculous. The damage to this cauldron is not high. I think any weapon refiner can repair it." Li Qing said, cupping his fists.

"Hahaha, Fellow Taoist Erniu, please don't be humble. Among the four immortal cultivation techniques of alchemy, formation, and talismans, weapon refining requires a lot of talent. Among casual cultivators, weapon refiners are the rarest."

This is the truth. At least Li Qing has not seen any other casual cultivator weapon refiners so far.

I have met a few alchemists and talisman masters, but weapon refining requires not only talent, but also a lot of resources.

Although it is also a test of talent for a formation mage, many of the materials used to set up the formation can be reused. Even if the formation fails, the spiritual materials will not be damaged.

"I'm just lucky." Li Qing scratched his head honestly.

"Fellow Taoist Erniu, I already understand your purpose of coming here. It must be for the Foundation Establishment Pill, right?" Taoist Qingyang said with a chuckle.

Seeing that the other party pointed out his purpose of coming, Li Qing was very happy. He nodded and said: "Yes, Senior Qingyang, I am here to build the foundation."

"Although I have only entered the late stage of Qi Refining not long ago, I still have a heart for the Tao. I hope my seniors will not laugh at me for being too ambitious."

Li Qing spoke sincerely and firmly, making no secret of his desire to pursue the great road.

"There's nothing funny about this. We've already entered the path of immortality, and who's not fighting for it?"

"Old Taoist, my qualifications are no better than yours. I had a narrow escape just for a Foundation Establishment Pill."

There was a look of nostalgia in Taoist Qingyang's eyes. He also had the qualifications of the Four Spiritual Roots. Those who could successfully build a foundation with such mixed spiritual roots were very few in the world of immortality.

It would be no exaggeration to say that his foundation-building process was a narrow escape.

"Senior is really a role model for our casual cultivators!" Even if you are trying to flatter someone, no matter what, it is always right to brag about the other party first.

Taoist Qingyang asked with a smile: "Hahaha, I'm going too far. How are you doing with the elixir for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

In the world of immortal cultivation, the recipe for the Foundation Building Pill is not a secret, and many alchemists have it.

Even many casual cultivators know that refining the Foundation Establishment Pill requires more than half of the auxiliary ingredients.

It is never the pill recipe or the alchemist that limits the number of foundation-building pills, but the main medicine!

Whether it is the Fusion Fruit or the crystal core of a second-level monster, they are extremely difficult to find in the outside world.

Only in some extremely dangerous Jedi or secret realms may you have a chance to obtain it.

"There are only some auxiliary medicines, including Xuanbingye, star anise, and magic heart fruit."

Li Qing truthfully reported the types of elixirs he possessed and did not hide anything.

Although these materials are relatively precious, they are definitely not as difficult to find as the main medicine. It is not surprising that Li Qing can collect them.

"That's right. My friend can collect so many elixirs on his own, which is already beyond the vast majority of casual cultivators!"

"Those missing auxiliary medicines are not difficult to find. You can find them with a little effort and time."

After hearing Taoist Qingyang's words, Li Qing murmured slightly in his heart, all thanks to the gift from Taoist Gu Ming.

Of course, Li Qing would never tell the other party about this. After all, killing people and seizing treasures was ultimately disgraceful, even if he was trying to save Ye Feng.

Moreover, Gu Ming was also one of the members of the secret trade fair held by Taoist Qingyang, whose Taoist name was Mingguang.

Fortunately, Tianhefang City was later conquered by the Shangqing Sect, and the Secret Trade Fair was disbanded. Many members lost contact or died in the war.

Presumably no one would pay attention to the life and death of a casual cultivator like Gu Ming.

"Little friend Erniu, do you have control over the most important ingredient in refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, the Yuan Yuan Fruit or the second-level demon core?"

Facing Taoist Qingyang's words, Li Qing could only shake his head with a wry smile and said: "Senior, you overestimate me. I am just a casual cultivator. For such precious things, let alone mastering them, I can't even grasp them." I haven’t even seen it a few times.”

Taoist Qingyang nodded in understanding and said, "So is this your plan?"

Li Qing said quickly: "So I plan to entrust seniors. If someone comes to you to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, I will take out all the auxiliary medicines and combine it with them. In addition, I will also compensate them with some spiritual stones or magic weapons." wait!"

Combining the foundation-building pills is absolutely rare in the world of immortal cultivation, and Taoist Qingyang will naturally be familiar with it.

"Well, there's nothing wrong with keeping an eye on it for you, but I have to tell you in advance that not many people have come to me to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill over the years. Even if there are one or two, they all have some background. Very few monks are willing to refine a furnace of Foundation-Building Pills with others."

"So you may have to wait a long time for this, and you may not even be able to wait for one for more than ten years."

Li Qing was indeed mentally prepared for this. He said calmly: "I understand this matter. I will also find a way to collect the main medicine myself in the future, and I will have to worry about it in the future!"

"It's not a big deal, it's just a little effort." Taoist Qingyang shook his head. .

In this way, Li Qing left Taoist Qingyang's cave.

At this point, a way to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill can be said to have been opened.

It was already dark, and when he returned to the courtyard, Li Qing's heart had calmed down.

"Next, we should pay attention to the news about the main ingredient of the Foundation Establishment Pill. But now is the time of chaos, so it's not easy to run around."

Li Qing looked at the Qing Hua Pond under the moonlight and couldn't help but sigh. Although the night view was beautiful, his thoughts were all on building the foundation.

"That's all, let's live in seclusion here for a year. It won't be too late to collect them after the war between the two sects is over."

As he spoke, Li Qing turned around and saw Fan Tong sleeping soundly in the courtyard.

"The life of this laborer is quite comfortable. I either eat or sleep all day long."

"I don't know if I should try my best to practice hard and advance to the second-level monster as soon as possible, so that I don't have to worry about the main medicine of the foundation-building elixir!" Li Qing laughed and cursed. This was naturally a joke, even if I really advanced to it. It is impossible for him to use the demon core of a second-level demon beast to refine the foundation-building pill.

Moreover, the cultivation of monster beasts is too much of a test of bloodline qualifications. Basically, as soon as you are born, your bloodline determines the upper limit of your life.

The fact that Fan Tong could break through to the middle stage of the first level with such a mixed bloodline was achieved by Li Qing using a large amount of animal-nurturing pills. If there were no other opportunities, it would be basically impossible for him to reach the late stage of the first level.

Because even a black evil tiger with pure bloodline can basically reach the end of the first level. Only a few black evil tigers with extraordinary talents or good fortune have the opportunity to advance to the second level monster.

Thinking of this, Li Qing patted his storage bag with his palm.

A red light flashed past, and soon, there were several red crystals dug out from the bodies of strange beasts in the polar night world in his hands.

These red crystals contain the secret power of the red moon, which is a power that can promote mutation, but the price is that it will become crazy and violent.

Just by holding these pieces of red crystal in his hands, Li Qing's consciousness could feel the chaos and madness contained in them. This was why he did not dare to feed his rice bucket with such red crystals.

However, Li Qing tapped the storage bag again, and two more transparent red crystals appeared in his hands.

The madness and violence contained in these two pieces of red crystal were a little weaker, and the cause of all this was Li Qing's blood.

Previously in the secret realm, Li Qing had used his own blood and red crystal as bait in order to induce the alien beasts to break through the restrictions.

Later, after the restriction was broken, two red crystals were stained with his own blood. Li Qing unexpectedly discovered that these two red crystals stained with blood no longer seemed to make people more chaotic and crazy.

"It seems that blood can suppress the side effects of red crystal, but I don't know if animal blood is useful."

As he spoke, Li Qing looked in the direction of the rice bucket.

Dintong, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly felt a chill down his spine. His body trembled, and then he opened his eyes and looked at his master.

"Ow?"

"Hey, come here and let some blood flow." Li Qing grinned and conveyed his thoughts.

Fan Tong wailed, but did not resist. He honestly let Li Qing put a small bowl of bright red and rich tiger blood from his body.

"Ow!"

"Okay, stop yelling, this is not for you. If the animal blood can also suppress the side effects of red crystal, then so can you."

Before he finished speaking, Li Qing closed his mouth, narrowed his eyes, and even released his consciousness, carefully observing the changes in Chi Jing.

At this time, he had soaked a piece of red crystal in the tiger's blood, and saw that the bowl of tiger blood actually bubbled up, as if it was boiling.

Soon, the madness and violence contained in the red crystal quickly dissipated, reaching a very low level, which can be said to be ignored.

"Sure enough!"

Li Qing raised the red crystal again and pointed it at the cold moon in the sky. The red crystal, still stained with tiger blood, seemed to become more transparent and brighter.

"Although taking red crystal next may not make you lose your mind, once you ingest the secret power of the red moon, it is likely to cause you to mutate."

"This mutation may be benign or malignant, and it may vary from animal to animal. You'd better think again whether you should take it or not!"

With that said, Li Qing handed the piece of red crystal that had been purified once with blood to the rice bucket, and clearly told it the pros and cons.

Through the seal of the blood contract between the two, Fan Tong also clearly felt the meaning conveyed from Li Qing's mind.

At this moment, Fan Tong's head drooped and he seemed to hesitate, as if he was really thinking about this issue.

Li Qing didn't say much. This was the decision of the rice bucket. He would not interfere. The pros and cons had been clearly explained.

Although Fan Tong has been with him for so many years, the relationship between the two is definitely not that of an owner and a pet. If anything, it is more like a companion.

One person and one tiger depend on each other for life. From the secular world to the world of immortality, they have experienced many things along the way, and they have already become incomparably tacit.

No matter what decision Fantong makes, Li Qing will not interfere.

Even if it doesn't choose to eat the red crystal, he will find ways to find other spiritual objects for it in the future to help it advance or strengthen its bloodline.

As if aware of Fantong's hesitation, Li Qing smiled gently and said:

"It doesn't matter, there is plenty of time, you can think about it slowly."

After saying that, Li Qing turned around and prepared to go back to meditate, but suddenly, Fan Tong grabbed his robe with his claws.

"Ow!"

"Have you thought about it? You must know that so far, no monster has taken red crystal, even if it has been purified!"

Feeling the thoughts conveyed by Fan Tong, Li Qing gave a serious persuasion.

"Ow!"

The meaning expressed by Fantong was already very clear. It shook its huge body, and there was determination in its huge tiger eyes.

After accompanying Li Qing for so many years, it knows that its strength has gradually failed to keep up with Li Qing. Maybe in the future, it will no longer be able to help Li Qing.

So it wants to become stronger, and is extremely eager to swallow that red crystal. This is a desire originating from its bones.

Even though some distortions may occur after eating it, it doesn't care at all and has already understood it very clearly.

"You stupid tiger, eat it." Li Qing handed the red crystal into the rice bucket's mouth, and then scratched its round head.

boom!
The moment the red crystal entered Fan Tong's mouth, Li Qing noticed that the blood in its body seemed to begin to churn, and he reacted immediately.

The changes, whether good or bad, have begun!
