Immortal weapon refiner

Chapter 867 Dark Clouds
After returning to Xuan Ancient City, Li Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not really let his guard down.

He killed a member of the Feiling tribe with his own hands. This was definitely not a small trouble. If the Feiling tribe knew about it, they would most likely retaliate.

Whether Xuan Gu City can hold out depends on whether the Giant Spirits will come forward to mediate.

Li Qing didn't know that after he left, all the Feiling people had died at the hands of Old Black Bull and Lord Hei Ming. This was bound to be a big event that would trigger a storm.

"I'm finally back. Next, I have to speed up my time to improve my strength. I can't waste a moment."

After returning to the cave, Li Qing sat down cross-legged without saying a word to regulate his breathing and practice.

He first nursed back to health, and in the shortest possible time completely healed the wounds he had sustained in the previous battle with Mo Ying.

A few days later, a major event occurred in the city.

The Jinfeng Trading Company's caravan returning from the Giant King City was attacked!

Nearly 70% of the members of the merchant team were lost, most likely encountering accidents, and only a few returned to Xuan Gu City.

When Li Qing learned about this, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

"We were attacked again. It's just as I expected. I wonder what the situation of the merchant Sikong is like." Li Qing sighed.

Just as Li Qing started to say this, Sikong came to visit Li Qing from outside the cave.

"Friend Li, Mr. Si is here to visit. Is it convenient for us to meet?"

Outside the cave, Sikong looked very pale and his breath was quite weak and unstable. It was obvious that he was still injured.

Li Qing walked out of the cave immediately and asked with concern: "Friend Si, I have heard about what happened. Are you okay?"

Sikong laughed miserably and said, "I almost died. If I didn't have a high-level escape talisman, I probably wouldn't be able to come back from this trip."

Hearing this, Li Qing was shocked. He didn't expect that even the powerful Sikong Shangzhu was almost killed. The attacker's strength was probably quite extraordinary.

You must know that Lord Sikong is not far from the Void Refinement Stage and can make a breakthrough at any time.

"It's so terrifying. Who are the people who attacked the caravan and which tribe are they from?" Li Qing asked.

Sikong shook his head and said, "I only know that it was a being at the Void Refining Stage. When it attacked, the mysterious being was wrapped in thick fog, and its identity and race could not be seen at all."

“However, there are not many tribes in Tonggu Continent that can send out powerful warriors in the Void Refinement Stage at will.”

Apart from the four powerful tribes, the fishmen and the fur tribe are the only two tribes that have more than one powerful person in the Nascent Soul stage.

The attacker could not be identified yet, but Sikong was quite certain that the other party was coming for the Poxu Dan.

"It is a blessing that Fellow Daoist Sikong is still alive. No matter what, at least he has saved his life."

"But, fellow Daoist, why didn't you just rest and recuperate? Why did you suddenly come to me?"

Hearing Li Qing's question, Sikong smiled bitterly and said, "After you left the Giant Spirit City, Senior Tunhai gave the Jade Bone Pill he won to a younger generation in the clan."

"The effectiveness of this pill even far exceeded Senior Tunhai's expectations. The younger generation in his clan was very eager for it and placed an order for 200 pills in one go, hoping that the subsequent supply of Jade Bone Pills would be given priority to his Giant Spirit Clan."

"I came here for this matter. Now I am injured and it is difficult for me to contact you about this matter later."

"I will send someone else to cooperate with you later, and you just need to give him the Jade Bone Pill you have refined."

It turned out that he came for the Jade Bone Pill. Li Qing thought about it and then agreed to it without hesitation.

"No problem. Starting from tomorrow, you can send someone to come once a month, and I will deliver some Jade Bone Pills to him."

Soon, the two discussed the matter of the Jade Bone Pill for a long time, and finally decided to set the price of the Jade Bone Pill at three thousand merit points per pill.

The price is not expensive, but it is definitely not cheap either. After all, one Brahma Ming Dan, which increases one's cultivation level in the God Transformation Stage, costs 20,000 Merits!
"I have explained almost everything. Next I have to go back to recuperate. After I recover, I will consider advancing to the Void Refining Stage."

Sikong, with a pale face, left Li Qing's cave after saying these words.

For Sikong who obtained a Poxu Pill from the auction, the most important thing now is naturally to break through to the Lianxu stage.

After hearing this, Li Qing was filled with awe. He clasped his fists and said, "I wish you success!"

After seeing Sikong off, Li Qing returned to the cave.

He thought about it, then took out the Life-Destroying Furnace and the elixir for refining the Jade Bone Pill.

"With the spiritual medicines currently on hand, we can open the furnace to refine 98 Jade Bone Pills. Even if the refining fails, we can probably make 90 furnaces. It is estimated that we can get more than 400 Jade Bone Pills."

"Excluding the Jade Bone Pills I need to take, each worth 3,000 points, even if we take away the 10% that Jinfeng Trading Company takes, the merit points I have will be more than 1 million points!"

After Li Qing roughly determined his possible future gains, his heart almost skipped a beat.

With the wealth of the Giant Spirit Clan, he would definitely not have to worry about the sales of the Jade Bone Pill.

More than one million merit points is definitely a huge sum of money, which made Li Qing start to think about it.

However, when he thought of the item at the top of the merit point exchange list in the Giant King City, he smiled bitterly again.

More than one million points are indeed a lot and very generous, but compared to those sky-high priced exchange items, it is still far behind.

In this way, Li Qing began to refine the Jade Bone Pill.

boom!
The spiritual fire was rising in the cave, and he began to refine it skillfully. He threw spiritual medicine into the life-annihilating furnace one after another, and used the spiritual fire to extract the essence of the medicinal properties.

Thirty days passed in the blink of an eye, and Li Qing, who had been repeating the detailed steps in the recipe, finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Alchemy is like this, extremely boring and tedious. Once you become proficient in it, it becomes a test of your soul and will, and there is almost nothing novel about it.

Over the past thirty days, Li Qing, exhausted both physically and mentally, started refining the Jade Bone Pill twenty-two times. He failed several times and made a total of twenty batches of pills.

"One hundred and nine Jade Bone Pills. As my proficiency improves, the number of pills I can make will also increase, approaching the level of six pills per furnace. After that, it should be able to stabilize at an average of six pills per furnace."

As he spoke, Li Qing took out fifty Jade Bone Pills and packed them into five white jade porcelain bottles. These were the pills that he was going to give to Jinfeng Trading Company to sell.

The remaining fifty-nine pills, plus the jade bone pills he already had on him, were enough for him to refine his own jade bones.

As for who Jinfeng Company would sell the Jade Bone Pill to, Li Qing didn't care. It was not his business. He just needed to collect the merit. The people who came to Jinfeng Company to pick up the Jade Bone Pill were very punctual. Almost as soon as the sky was getting light, someone came to visit.

As agreed, Li Qing delivered fifty Jade Bone Pills to the other party, and this person also gave Li Qing all the merit points he had earned to him on the spot.

This is the wealth of Jinfeng Company. They did not wait until the Jade Bone Pill was sold before giving Li Qing the merit points. Instead, they exchanged money for goods, and they attached great importance to credibility.

"Fifty Jade Bone Pills, a total of 150,000 merit points. My Jinfeng Company will take 10% of it, which is 135,000 merit points. Senior, please confirm the amount."

Looking at the hundreds of thousands of extra merit points on his merit card, Li Qing nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, that's the right number."

"Then I will take my leave. I wish you a long and prosperous life!"

After saying this, the person from Jinfeng Trading Company who came to collect the Jade Bone Pill left a few pleasant words and left Li Qing's cave.

"After that, you only need to refine ten furnaces every month, and the rest of the time can be used for cultivation."

After saying this, Li Qing sat down exhausted both physically and mentally, and tried to recover his almost exhausted consciousness.

Two days later, his exhausted spiritual consciousness gradually recovered.

"Let me see the efficacy of this Brahma Pill. Thirty Brahma Pills should allow me to enter the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, right?"

Li Qing whispered and stuffed a round elixir the size of a winter date into his mouth.

The Fanming Pill melted in his mouth, and Li Qing swallowed it in one gulp without even having the chance to chew it.

boom!
In an instant, the surging medicinal power exploded in Li Qing's body, and the magic power in his dantian surged and boiled almost immediately.

Feeling the surge of medicinal power in his body, Li Qing immediately started to practice his own skills without saying a word, activating the four spiritual fires of heaven and earth to begin to refine this surging medicinal energy.

Soon, the swollen meridians were slightly relieved. Li Qing was reluctant to waste even a bit of the medicinal power, so he transformed it all into pure magic power and accumulated it in his dantian.

His cultivation, which had originally been as slow as a turtle's crawl, finally began to rise at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The efficacy of the Fanming Pill is extremely significant, far exceeding Li Qing's daily meditation and practice. This is on an order of magnitude that cannot be compared at all.

At this time, Li Qing's advantage of having all five elements of spiritual roots was also reflected. He was extremely efficient in refining the energy of these pills. With the bonus of the spiritual fire of heaven and earth, in less than a day, the medicinal power of the Brahma Ming Pill was completely refined by him.

"Huh! It's worthy of being a precious elixir from the spiritual world. Its efficacy is remarkable."

Li Qing smacked his lips, amazed by the effectiveness of this Brahma Pill.

However, he also knew that this should be the benefit brought by the first dose. In the future, when the amount taken increases, the effectiveness should decrease and will not be as obvious as it is today.

But this is enough. In the future, Li Qing will have a steady stream of merit income, and he can also go to the giant tribe’s royal city to exchange for Brahma Pills. There is still plenty of this pill left on the exchange list.

Without wasting any time, Li Qing took the second Brahma Pill while he was in good condition.

Another burst of medicinal energy overflowed. Li Qing used the spiritual fire in his body to refine the medicinal power of the Brahma Pill, absorbing it completely without wasting a single bit.

He was so addicted to the elixir that he couldn't stop. During the next ten days or so, he was almost intoxicated by the improvement brought by the elixir.

Feeling one's own cultivation level increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye is something that no one can resist, and one can't help but indulge in it.

In this way, after Li Qing swallowed the thirty Brahma Pills, only sixteen were left, and he slowly stopped his practice.

"I've taken a big step. The improvement I've made in just a dozen days has even surpassed all the progress I've made since I entered the Spiritual Transformation Stage."

He felt the situation inside his body. At this moment, his dantian was slightly swollen. This was caused by excessive accumulation of magic power and its inability to adapt. In addition, his Nascent Soul was also a little weak and not as refined as before.

"If you just eat pills like candy, there are indeed some hidden dangers. You need to have a certain interval to allow yourself to adapt, otherwise you will have problems breaking through in the future."

Li Qing, who had a strong will, stopped taking the Fanming Pill and took out the Yugu Pill instead.

This is a body-refining elixir and is of no help to one's cultivation, so there won't be any problem with it.

Finally, Li Qing took seven days to start refining the elixir. He was already very familiar with the refining of the Jade Bone Pill.

In just seven days, he refined ten furnaces of Jade Bone Pills without failing once.

This time he obtained fifty-six Jade Bone Pills and prepared to deliver them all to the people from Jinfeng Trading Company.

However, what surprised Li Qing was that the second month had already passed, but the people from Jinfeng Trading Company who came to collect the pills had not shown up yet.

"You're already late in the second month? What's going on?"

Having said that, Li Qing walked out of the cave and breathed the long-lost fresh air from the outside world.

He waited outside the cave for most of the day, but still no one from Jinfeng Trading Company came to collect the pills. Li Qing decided to go and see for himself what was going on.

But before he could walk far, the person who had contacted him before finally arrived.

The man gasped and said, "Sorry, Senior Li, I'm late!"

Li Qing frowned slightly and said, "What happened that delayed us for so long? I was planning to go to your Chamber of Commerce in person."

"Something has indeed happened. Some time ago, the Feiling Clan reported the death of a member of the Void Refining Stage and several members of the Spiritual Transformation Stage!"

"Originally it had nothing to do with my race, because a bull demon from Manniu Ridge took the responsibility for it."

"But just a few days ago, a caravan of our Jinfeng Company returning from Manniu Ridge was attacked by the Feiling tribe."

“I don’t know how the Feiling tribe learned that some of the tribe members who died some time ago were actually involved in the deaths by cultivators from our human race!”

As soon as these words came out, Li Qing's heart sank and his expression became very serious.

"So what is the current situation? The Feiling tribe wants to go to war with our human race?"

The man from Jinfeng Trading Company sighed and said, "My Xuan Ancient City is not qualified to go to war with the Feiling Clan. If a war breaks out, and if the Giant Clan does not mediate, there will only be one outcome for my race, and that is destruction."

Li Qing's hands behind his back trembled slightly, and his heart sank to the bottom.
