Shangyuque

Chapter 32 Do you think I look like a black jade oil bead?

I closed my eyes and opened them again, and three years had passed.

As the saying goes, the fairyland and the palace come into your dreams, and there is no end in sight for a hundred years of cultivation.

Cultivating immortals is like this. For a great cultivator, even a hundred years is only the time for seclusion once.

But for a young man like Yulou, three years is more than enough for him to get rid of his immaturity.

Three years passed, and Qingxifang seemed to have not changed much. Gao Jian, who had always been a leopard's servant, did not follow his master Jiang Baobian. Instead, he became a disciple of the new guardian monk and became a registered disciple.

Although there is no story about a slave of three surnames in this world, the deeds of Gao Jian, a slave of two surnames, are still very legendary.

However, the cold eyes and disgust of outsiders cannot affect Gao Jian's "power".

After leaving the Yulou of Fuyuanju, they ran into Gao Jian who was patrolling with the law enforcement team. This beast was making things difficult for a casual cultivator who looked quite old.

Yulou didn't say anything, but just nodded calmly to Gao Jian as a greeting.

Wang Xianmao had helped Gao Jian break the siege, and in return Gao Jian looked after the two Yulou brothers. Although it was better than nothing, it probably had some potential use.

"Yulou, I will take a concubine the day after tomorrow, remember to come with your brother."

Gao Jian was very enthusiastic and took the initiative to extend an invitation.

He took a concubine once a year, which was a special form of collecting protection money.

But if you go to Yulou, you don't have to pay.

Moreover, Gao Jian did not collect his own protection fee - in addition to Qingxifang's inherent red light management system, there was also a management system belonging to the garrison monks.

"Do you have any spiritual rice?" Yulou stopped and asked with a smile.

Yulou is a person who will not suffer any loss, so Gao Jian was not annoyed when he heard his question.

"Haha, if you bring me a gift, I'll let you sit in the seat."

The Gaos wouldn't seek harm for themselves, they were very clear about their calculations.

Face is face, favor is favor, and magical rice is magical rice. No one can eat it for free.

“Okay, Yu’an eats a lot, so you can’t be stingy when the time comes, Senior Gao.”

Under Yu'an's puzzled gaze, Yulou and Gaojian were in a tug of war.

"Don't worry, don't worry." Gao Jian agreed readily.

Seeing the two brothers walking away, the smile on Gao Jian's face slowly disappeared, and he returned to his ferocious state. He looked at the cultivator who was being held down and shouted.

"Five spirit stones for the entrance fee. Be smart and don't tell me that a cultivator at the fifth level of Qi training doesn't even have five spirit stones."

"I paid the fee yesterday. I have the admission slip, and the admission fee is only one spirit stone, right?"

"Yesterday's is yesterday's, today's is today's. Five coins are the fine for not having today's entry ticket. Pay it now!"
-
"He has already met his end."

As they gradually moved away from Gao Jian, Yulou whispered.

"How do you see it?" Yu An was puzzled.

"The fact that Jiang Baobian doesn't want him shows that Gao Jian himself doesn't have the possibility of building a foundation. It should be that his Qi training direction is wrong.

Now, he was frantically squeezing spirit stones from the hands of the casual cultivators, trying to save up some resources for himself to build his foundation.

But it takes at least 50,000 spirit stones to buy the foundation-building resources. Master has been preparing for so many years and still can't prepare them all. Can his insight be obtained by deducting spirit stones from the hands of casual cultivators?"

Yu'an calculated and felt that Yulou seemed to have made a mistake.

"He can squeeze out five spirit stones from a casual cultivator. If he extorts ten spirit stones a day, he can extort fifty spirit stones, which is almost 20,000 spirit stones a year. He can build a foundation in three years."

Yulou smiled and walked into Huafengju, leaving only one sentence floating in the air.

"You mean, he likes to eat alone?"

Patting his head in annoyance, Yu'an followed Yulou into Huafengju.

Yu'an also dared to think.

Gao Jian makes 20,000 spirit stones a year?
Those who didn't know him would think he was a garrison monk!
"Senior sister!"

When he saw Senior Sister Ningyao, Yu An straightened his back inexplicably. Zhong Ningyao pointed to the back hall of Huafengju and said politely.

"Go in quickly, today is a critical day for you, your brother has already gone in."

Yu'an nodded and invited.

"Don't worry, there will be no problem. We are planning to go to the ghost market tonight. Do you want to come with us?"

Hearing that Yulou and the other person were going to the Ghost Market, Senior Sister Ningyao was somewhat tempted, but she still shook her head.

“My father wouldn’t let me go.”

After all, Yulou and Yu'an grew up in Wangjiashan and had lived in two places in their lifetime.

Zhong Ningyao grew up in Qingxifang. Ms. Hongmei was afraid that her daughter would be in danger, so she never allowed her to step out of Qingxifang.

"Is that so? Senior Sister, I'll go in first."

Yu'an, this silly boy, didn't know how to continue the conversation after just a few sentences.

"Come on, you are the best!" said Zhong Ningyao.

Yu'an walked into the back hall with a silly smile on his face. Hongmei was furious when she saw his look.

Boy, if you weren’t my apprentice, I would beat you up!
"Stop laughing and come here!" Hongmei scolded.

“Due to the limitation of your magic power, you Qi-inducing stage weapon refiners can only refine low-grade magic weapons at best, but this does not mean that you can only learn the methods of refining low-grade magic weapons.

The refining of magical instruments often follows certain rules. In my opinion, there is not much difference between low-grade and medium-grade instruments. It is simply a matter of control over spiritual fire and the level of refining.

Today, the two of you will use ninth-grade black jade and ninth-grade blood-soaked purple copper as the base materials respectively to refine the embryo of a mid-grade magic weapon.

In terms of restrictions, you only need to refine three layers of basic restrictions, but leave enough space for refining.

The black jade oil beads I gave you, including the tortoise shell, were so easy to refine later because I reserved space for subsequent refining restrictions when I was refining them.

Now each of you choose a spiritual material, and then let’s get started.”

Yulou left the ninth-grade black jade to Yu'an and took the blood-soaked purple copper away himself - this was difficult.

In addition to grade, spiritual materials of the same grade and type also have special properties.

Purple copper is originally a ninth-grade spiritual gold, but after being processed with the blood of special monsters or even other unspeakable spiritual blood, it becomes blood-soaked purple copper.

The specific special effects will vary depending on the type of spiritual blood and the method of preparation. This link is called attribution.

This special method of processing spiritual materials is also the most critical part of the inheritance of the Dao of Refining. It is a good thing that even the big sects like Hongdengzhao are reluctant to pass on.

For example, when a cultivator with wood spiritual roots needs an offensive magic weapon made of spiritual gold or spiritual iron, he can choose spiritual materials with wood properties as the base material of the magic weapon, which will greatly improve the compatibility when using it.

But correspondingly, the greater the advantage you gain, the higher the price you have to pay, and the difficulty of refining innate spiritual materials is also much higher.

This is also the reason why Yulou took the initiative to choose blood-soaked copper.

"Yu'an, have you figured out how to refine this black jade?"

Hongmei looked at the black jade in Yu'an's hand and asked in a solemn voice.

Yulou was not worried. This child was like a demon. He had only studied for three years, but his attainments in refining the Dao were already comparable to his own when he had studied for seven or eight years.

Yu'an, who had already reached the fifth level of Qi Induction, used his magic power to detect the black jade. After a long time, he looked at his master and asked expectantly.

"Master, can I refine the Black Jade Oil Pearl?"

Yu'an has studied Yulou's black jade oil beads and his tortoise shell.

If he were to refine the Black Jade Oil Beads, he was confident that after refining three levels of restrictions, he would still have enough space for refining the seventh level of restrictions.

Hongmei took a deep breath.

Calm down, calm down, calm down!

"Do you think I look like a black jade oil bead?
Just refine the jade axe, only refine the axe blade, and remember to leave a hole for the axe handle this time!"

"As you command, Master!"
