Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Chapter 99 Refining Hall Mission

Theory is just theory.

To open all acupoints at the same time, it would take an unknown amount of time, as the barrier thickness of double acupoints, single acupoints, and extra acupoints is different.

Once you leave the blowing of the Nine Nether Winds.

Over time, the weakened barrier will quickly recover.

Therefore, we still have to rely on ourselves.

Gu Qing activated his cultivation technique at full power, entering a state of deep meditation.

On the fifth day, the double-rushing method successfully opened two orifices!

On the ninth day, two more orifices opened.

Day 12, reopening!

Day fourteen, open!

Day 15, open!

In half a month, ten acupoints were opened, and the speed was getting faster and faster. The more you persist, the thinner the barrier between the two acupoints becomes, and the easier it is to break through.

"call……"

After evacuating the area shrouded by the Nine Nether Winds, Gu Qing looked at his strips of clothing, covered in a layer of sticky blood scabs, all from the Nine Nether Winds.

With his current physical strength, he can only blow continuously for 15 days. Any longer, and he will suffer irreparable damage.

Take a few healing pills.

The transfer of the true essence from the Qi Sea to the newly opened acupoints resulted in a significant decrease in the true essence stored in the Qi Sea.

"The pills that increase true essence cannot be stopped either."

"I'll continue to buy Longquan wine and Bihai Dan after I leave."

The higher one's cultivation level, the greater the need for cultivation resources.

If Gu Qing could cultivate to the point of perfecting the gathering of spiritual energy in all acupoints, his strength would increase at least tenfold, and his true essence would increase a hundredfold.

Once all internal wounds have healed.

Gu Qing entered the Nine Nether Wind once again, and over the next fifteen days, he opened up 16 acupoints.

A total of 26 in one month.

The speed can be described in one word: fast! Incredibly fast!

Based on a total of 618 acupoints, it would take 23 months, or two years, to fully open them, which is much faster than the six years he initially calculated.

This is only due to the advantageous location of the Nine Netherworld Cave. What if we add the Flying Spirit Pill? As more and more acupoints are opened, Gu Qing's strength is also increasing.

The Yanlong True Skill is a cultivation method that combines physical and magical cultivation.

With the enhancement of his cultivation technique and the Nine Nether Wind, the time he could enjoy the wind outside the Fiend Cave was also increasing.

This month is just an experiment. Once everything is prepared and all the conditions are met, his breakthrough speed will be even faster.

He changed into a set of casual clothes and put them on.

Without waiting for more time, Gu Qing left along the path he had come from. He was going to the Refining Hall to exchange for some resources before returning to cultivate.

After Gu Qing left, Tai Kangxuan watched him walk away with a sigh.

"This young man has a resilient character, much like Zhao Yin back then. Another rising star, not bad, not bad!"

The Refining Hall.

Elder Yao smiled as he saw Gu Qing.

"How do you feel?"

"I have benefited greatly! Thank you for your guidance, Elder Yao."

"Sigh, I've mentored many disciples, but not all of them are as obedient as you."

Gu Qing: "..."

The same speechless situation happened last time.

"This disciple has come to exchange for the Azure Sea Pill."

Elder Yao nodded and offered another suggestion.

"Master Wanyi has recently developed a new elixir called the [Yihe Pill]. Would you like to try it?"

Gu Qing was taken aback.

"It also increases true essence?"

"Yes."

“In the past, very few disciples exchanged for Azure Sea Pills; they were almost never used. But since you came, no less than thirty have been exchanged.”

"Master Wanyi has taken an interest and specially refined an even more powerful one for you. Would you like to try it?" "Uh... what's the price?"

"One out of every 100 will be contributed."

The price is high, but he just got a sum of money from Bai Feng, so he can still afford it.

"How about...two to try?"

"Two are not enough. Master Wanyi gave me five, all of them are yours."

"..."

"That was specially made for you by a seventh-grade cultivator."

Ugh.

With a sigh, Gu Qing nodded, intending to give him face. After all, the effects of the Azure Sea Pill were remarkable, so the effects of the Yihe Pill should be quite good as well.

"OK then."

Elder Yao, who was already prepared, immediately took out a bottle of pills, poured out seven pills, put them into another jade bottle, and handed the original bottle to Gu Qing.

Five.

Gu Qing: "..."

"Don't look so gloomy. Would I lie to you? The Weapon Forging Hall has a big mission recently and has recruited many weapon refiners. Do you want to give it a try?"

"I am busy with cultivation and may not have much free time recently."

"The payment is in spirit stones. I heard it's a big order from the Xia family of Huaibei River."

"The Xia family is one of the nine great immortal clans of the Southern Yue Kingdom, and they are incredibly wealthy."

"A high-grade magic weapon costs 10 spirit stones, and you're not going?"

Gu Qing's eyes immediately lit up.

"go with!"

Working for the Refining Hall only yields 50 contribution points for a high-grade magic weapon, far less valuable than 10 spirit stones. Gu Qing wouldn't miss such a rare opportunity to make money.

As for cultivation, there's no rush; take it slowly.

Once the acupoints are opened, they need to be filled with true energy to be considered complete; this cannot be rushed.

In the outside world, low-grade magic artifacts can generally be bought for 1 to 3 spirit stones, mid-grade magic artifacts for 5 to 10, high-grade magic artifacts for 10 to 30, and top-grade magic artifacts for 50 spirit stones or more.

The lowest level of magical artifacts is 300 or higher.

The Xia family paid a labor fee, and the materials were provided by the family. The reward of 10 spirit stones was considered quite high.

He was just worried about not having enough spirit stones to buy Longquan wine, and this gift came right to his door.

In the cultivation world of the Southern Wilderness, Baiyue Mountain is the most revered, followed by the four major sects and the nine immortal clans.

Medicine King Valley, Sitting Mountain Gate, Innate Taoist Academy, Wild Goose Sect.

Of the nine immortal clans, five are from Nanli City, in addition to the Xia, Taikang, Lianchu, and Fangfeng clans.

The royal family of Nanyue, with Emperor Hong Jiang clan standing out from the rest, is considered a branch of the Baiyue Mountains, and in recent years there have been subtle signs of them becoming independent.

Among the young men and women that Gu Qing usually came into contact with.

The Yun and Lü families both belong to Baiyue Mountain and are not included in this classification. However, if we were to compare them separately, there are several families that can rival them.

Bai Feng's family, the Bai clan of Cangshan, was a second-rate cultivation family.

The Xia family commissioned Baiyue Mountain to refine weapons, which must mean they encountered some large-scale event.

After learning more from Elder Yao, Gu Qing...

They learned that the magical artifacts the Xia family was going to refine were a series of artifacts that could restrain Yin ghosts.

Evil-repelling beads, evil-repelling peach ornaments, Qianyang sword, Chunyang umbrella, Yangji lock, etc.

The demand was enormous, like discovering a small underworld. They didn't specify the details, but they wanted to solve it themselves.

There are probably quite a few people in the Southern Wilderness cultivation world eyeing the Xia family.

Although Yin ghosts are annoying, there are benefits to killing them. Not to mention the various Yin-attribute spiritual materials, the Yin marrow that Gu Qing once obtained is one of the treasures and is very valuable.

If you have the ability to eat it all, who would want to share it?

But this matter has nothing to do with him; he can just have some soup or broth from the weapon-refining process.

"The three smelting peaks under the Refining Hall are already overcrowded, and many of the main hall stewards have also entered. You should hurry up and do your work; how much you earn depends on your ability."

"The materials are all in the warehouse, go and get them yourself."

"Row."
