Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Chapter 74 The Purple Star Qi Gathering Strategy (Seeking recommendations and monthly votes!)

Since it was her first time here, Gu Qing had done her homework beforehand.

After passing through the first entrance of the magic array with the steward's token, the left-hand side is called the Martial Scripture Hall, which is the source of the Martial Stele and records all the cultivation techniques and secret arts of the ninth rank.

The main cultivation methods, secondary cultivation methods, martial arts, secret techniques, and Taoist arts are divided into numerous scripture halls...

It's always packed with people.

Most of those staying here are disciples recruited by the Southern Yue Kingdom, primarily those at the ninth-grade Foundation Establishment stage.

After arriving at Baiyue Mountain, the five mortal sects are all at least eighth-grade true cultivators. From this point of view, a clear distinction can be made.

Its actual status is higher, and it is also more valued by Baiyue Mountain.

Gu Qing only recently realized this.

He was actually the one with higher status, not the disciples of the Southern Yue Cultivation Kingdom. The so-called unity and resistance, which might have involved oppression, was just a joke.

To the right is a library suitable for eighth-grade cultivators.

It was also divided into many scripture halls.

Gu Qing's primary goal was to cultivate supplementary techniques, as there weren't many of these available at the Sword Forging Manor.

A quick glance.

They then discovered many useful techniques.

"The Strategy of Returning to the Origin of Qi", "The Strategy of Stars Shining on the Sea", "The Strategy of the Bright Mirror of the Floating Pagoda", "The Strategy of the Emperor's Heart", "The Strategy of Subduing the Dragon in the Nine Capitals", "The Strategy of Golden Wind and Jade Dew"... and so on.

These are all supplementary cultivation methods, which aim to improve one's mental state and increase the probability of breaking through bottlenecks.

It has a spiritual cultivation mechanism that increases the speed of daily cultivation.

Cultivating one's zodiac sign increases the power of one's magic.

It strengthens the foundation and enhances the prospects of one's spiritual path.

The Taoist teachings are countless, and the library is vast, containing everything imaginable and unimaginable.

In terms of price, the eighth-grade auxiliary cultivation method has four levels, corresponding to the four stages of true cultivation.

10, 20, 30, 50, four gears.

Gu Qing could understand that the collection was more expensive than that of the Sword Casting Manor. After all, it was Baiyue Mountain, and how could it differentiate itself from its subordinate institutions if it wasn't more expensive?

Even so, it's still quite cheap.

In terms of cultivation methods and techniques, Baiyue Mountain is relatively lenient. Apart from the truly secret methods, the control over other methods is very relaxed.

The 【Morning Glow and Purple Aura Strategy】 should be in the 20-point range.

Gu Qing had 300 contribution points, and after researching, he selected two auxiliary cultivation techniques, each worth 50 points.

Total spending: 100, remaining: 200.

"Purple Jade Flower and Mountain Spirit Shifting Techniques, two auxiliary cultivation methods?"

The manager in charge of the exchange was quite surprised.

After all, very few people make that kind of change.

"Let me remind you, the teachings taken out of the Sutra Repository can only be passed on to one direct descendant, and cannot be leaked in any way."

"I know, don't worry, it's just these two."

"Well."

After getting what he wanted, Gu Qing went to the magic hall next door.

Magic is the protective method used by true cultivators, and it has only three levels: lower, middle, and upper.

The price is based on contribution points of 1, 3, and 5.

His Fire Dragon Technique is a high-grade spell. When he obtained it from the Sword Forging Manor, it only cost 1 contribution point, but here it costs 5 points.

I don't know if it's a hidden perk of the resort or inflation.

Special spells like Fire Release Technique can unleash greater power depending on one's cultivation level, and each one requires 100 contribution points, making the price ten times higher.

As a result, Gu Qing's choices became fewer.

He then switched to two more high-grade spells.

One area-of-effect spell, Fire Rain; one control spell, Blazing Ring.

The former goes without saying, while the latter, when cultivated to perfection, can generate five blazing rings when casting spells, imprisoning the cultivator's body and subjecting them to the pain of being burned by flames.

Creating a confinement-type magical artifact is one of Gu Qing's next plans.

While I'm at it, I'll also learn a similar spell.

In addition, he exchanged 100 contribution points for a special secret technique, which was extremely suitable for the innate fire spirit body to use.

It is called the [Fire Devouring Secret Technique]

This method has a minimum rank of eighth grade and no upper limit; cultivators of any level can use it.

Its main effect is to subdue and refine exotic spiritual fires in the world to enhance the power of its own flames, and to constantly absorb the power of flames or earth fire.

It can also enhance a cultivator's aptitude in the fire element, as well as their body's resistance to flames and high temperatures. It's very suitable for Gu Qing.

In his early years, he had the idea of ​​searching for rare and exotic fires to speed up his weapon crafting process.

At that time, it was because of a lack of acupoints.

Now that he's on the path of fire, the strange fires of heaven and earth are of great help to him. If he has the chance, he must find one.

In this way, another 110 contribution points will be consumed.

Balance: 90.

Gu Qing dared not spend any more money. After exchanging them, he returned to the Refining Hall and exchanged them for three more Azure Sea Pills.

This drew criticism from Elder Yao.

He said he hadn't even used up the three he exchanged last time, and he's coming to exchange again. Isn't this just making a fool of him? He should just exchange them all at once to save himself the trouble of registering them repeatedly.

Gu Qing responded with a smile.

His wallet was empty, and he couldn't exchange it for anything more.

When he returned to Huosang Mountain.

It's midnight.

Looking at the two newly acquired auxiliary cultivation techniques, he entered them into the panel and fused them with the Morning Glow Purple Qi Strategy.

Rekindle the flame and extend life, uniting into one.

Until it is perfect and innovative.

As lifespan is deducted.

The method gradually became more complete.

The name of the auxiliary cultivation technique became vague. After deducting one hundred years of lifespan, Gu Qing immediately consumed 1200 artifact cultivation points to convert them into 100 years of lifespan.

The gap was filled instantly.

The feeling of exhaustion had just begun when it subsided.

It's as absurd as an illusion.

The new cultivation technique is called the "Purple Star Qi Gathering Strategy," a seventh-grade, top-tier auxiliary cultivation technique! It is on the same level as the Flaming Dragon True Technique and will not need to be changed for a long time to come.

With the original foundation in place, Gu Qing immediately reached the third level of cultivation when he began practicing this new method.

This practice draws upon the energy of the stars, mountains, and peaks throughout the heavens, and can be practiced day and night.

The core idea is to be able to harvest a wisp of the Purple Star's energy.

It remains a six-level realm. If one cultivates to perfection, the Qi of the Ziwei Star will be the core, supplemented by the Qi of the stars in the heavens, mountains, rivers, and peaks.

Gathering the treasures of heaven and earth, the Qi of Heaven and Earth.

Absorbing and refining it can increase cultivation level, strengthen the body, enhance spiritual awareness, and extend lifespan.

It's all about being comprehensive!
This is of great benefit to cultivation, which made Gu Qing's eyes crinkle with delight.

Unfortunately, it still needs to be perfected before it can be done.

It is temporarily impossible to condense the [Qiankun Qi].

Even so, it's still very worthwhile.

"Then the next step is to proceed step by step and cultivate slowly. The three new spells also need to be mastered. With the Fire Spirit Body, it won't be too difficult."

Allocate your time properly.

The next mission is expected to be within the next few months, so Gu Qing had a rare night's sleep, which she took as a chance to relax.

A few days later.
