Longevity starts with choosing Hextech enhancement

Chapter 37 Repairing the magic weapon, the technique is stuck

Elder Qi is usually quite serious and rarely shows up in public, so you can't see her most of the time.

Xiao Chen went to pay a visit once under the guidance of Shen Siyue, and the other party only said two sentences in total.

"Since you've come to Bishui Peak, you must practice diligently and be self-disciplined and strong. How's the accommodation? Are you satisfied?"

"I will remember the elders' teachings. The environment here is very good and I am very satisfied."

"That's good. If you have any questions, ask Siyue. Siyue, please take care of him if you have time. Is there anything else? If not, go and practice."

Elder Qi's tone was cold, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or disgusted. He was completely different from his previous enthusiastic and righteous appearance.

Shen Siyue also comforted Xiao Chen: "Don't worry, Junior Brother Xiao, Master is like this to everyone. She is usually cold, but she is actually a very good person."

Then a whole month passed in a flash.

Because Elder Qi once set a rule that any new disciple joining Bishui Peak is not allowed to leave Bishui Peak for the first month.

Instead, he should stay steadily on the mountain, consolidate his cultivation, practice and familiarize himself with the magic tools again, and copy the "Inner Gate Manual" three times by hand and hand it in at the end of the month.

Most of the content in the "Inner Gate Manual" is nothing more than some sect rules and etiquette, and the most important points are only two.

One is that if an inner disciple is unable to break through the foundation-building stage before the age of thirty, he will be sent out of the sect to take charge of some miscellaneous tasks again.

Xiao Chen had known this for a long time and was not worried at all.

Another point is that inner disciples can receive a training subsidy of five spirit stones per month.

In addition, if you want to obtain better skills, magic tools, elixirs, etc., you need to go to the Merit Hall to receive sect tasks and earn contribution points to exchange.

Of course, you can also exchange spirit stones for contribution points, but they will be twice as expensive.

The rule of the Merit Hall is that two spirit stones can be exchanged for one contribution point, but conversely, two contribution points can only be exchanged for one spirit stone.

Unless you are a disciple from a well-connected family and have plenty of money, it is not recommended to make such an exchange, as it will be a huge loss.

Xiao Chen no longer needs to cultivate spiritual fields every day like he did before.

Instead, he stayed in his own yard every day, studying manuals, practicing magic tools, and reviewing his skills.

Although there were no familiar inner sect brothers visiting, it was a bit deserted.

But he was used to being alone, so he lived a free and easy life.

Of course, he was not idle either. Since Elder Qi asked him to consolidate his cultivation and practice with magical instruments, he also took the opportunity to familiarize himself with several of his own magical instruments.

Not only did he refine the Golden Light Pearl and the Evergreen Sword, and nourish them with his magic power every day, he also tried to repair the Green Gourd with the Green Wood Spirit Liquid.

It is called repair, but in fact it is just pouring the green wood spirit liquid into the gourd and injecting magic power to help it absorb.

The repair effect is very gratifying.

The Green Gourd originally only required one mana to activate, but now after being repaired, two mana must be consumed to summon the Green Wood God General inside.

Generally speaking, the amount of mana consumed is basically equivalent to the power of the magic weapon.

Usually, low-grade magic tools only need one mana to operate, medium-grade magic tools require three mana, and high-grade magic tools require nine mana.

In addition, some carefully crafted magical instruments, although not yet reaching the next level, also require additional mana to drive.

The increase in the Green Gourd's mana requirement just proves that it is recovering to its original grade.

Xiao Chen estimated that as long as he refined two or three more doses of Qingmu Spirit Liquid into it, he should be able to restore it to a mid-grade magic weapon.

"Boom boom boom!"

Shen Siyue's voice suddenly rang out from outside the gate: "Junior Brother Xiao, are you there?"

Xiao Chen hurriedly opened the door to welcome her: "Senior Sister Shen, you are here." But as soon as he opened the door, he saw Shen Siyue with a sad face, as if she had encountered some trouble.

As expected, Shen Siyue said apologetically, "I'm truly sorry, Junior Brother Xiao. The Sutra Library still says that the technique that's compatible with your spiritual roots is still being recorded."

"Junior brother, you can use your original technique for now."

Her voice became lower and lower, but fortunately Xiao Chen was a cultivator and could barely hear her.

After meeting Elder Qi that day, Xiao Chen had only met two people in the past month.

Apart from a errand disciple who was responsible for delivering spiritual rice to him, only Shen Siyue came three times.

The first time, he was given two pots of spiritual flowers, saying that placing them in the yard would help him gather some spiritual energy to help his cultivation. He also said that he would help him get a new cultivation technique right away.

The second time he came was to apologize, saying that he was unable to obtain the new cultivation method in time and asked Xiao Chen to wait for a few more days.

The third time is now, and there is still no new technique.

Shen Siyue was obviously very angry and ashamed about this. Her face flushed as she explained, "I'm sorry, Junior Brother Xiao. I will go and ask a few more times."

Xiao Chen had already reacted and asked directly: "Senior Sister, what is the name of the elder of the sect's Sutra Library? Is he related to the Jiang family?"

Shen Siyue hesitated for a moment. "The Sutra Library is under the charge of Elder Li. I don't know the relationship between the elders."

In fact, the matter is not complicated. In order to increase the speed of disciples' cultivation, the sect stipulates that inner disciples can receive a free copy of the Xuan-level skills corresponding to their spiritual roots from the Sutra Library.

However, there are no detailed regulations on how many days this exercise must be burned.

It dragged on for a whole month, and with Shen Siyue's hesitation, Xiao Chen knew without a doubt that someone must be behind this, and there was a 99% chance that it was a member of the Jiang family.

"Senior Sister Shen, let's forget about this. If I don't have it, then I don't have it. My original technique is pretty good. Even if I were given a new one, I wouldn't be willing to exchange it."

Xiao Chen was telling the truth. He could practice the yellow-level skills to the foundation-building stage, so the black-level skills were useless to him.

Now, this book "Qi-Nourishing Breathing Method" is more powerful than any Xuan-level skills for him, and the effect is also the most suitable.

If it weren't for the Qi-nourishing Breathing Method that reduced the difficulty of breaking through, and this effect was amplified tenfold by Hextech, he would not have been able to break through to the late stage of Qi Refining so quickly.

The Jiang family wanted to block his martial arts, but they miscalculated.

However, Shen Siyue misunderstood his meaning: "Junior Brother Xiao, I'm sorry, Master asked me to take care of you, I..."

"Wait a minute!" Xiao Chen interrupted her quickly: "Senior Sister Shen, I'm telling the truth. I really don't care whether there are new skills or not. I don't need that."

Shen Siyue still blamed herself: "Junior brother, I know..."

Xiao Chen interrupted again: "Senior Sister Shen, I know Elder Chen. I was accepted as his disciple in advance. You should have heard about this. So I don't lack any skills. If I don't have any, forget it."

Of course, it is impossible to let it go like this. This was only said to Shen Siyue. After all, the Jiang family was targeting him, and there was no need to let Shen Siyue make things difficult for him.

Xiao Chen directly made a note of the Jiang family in the little notebook in his heart.

It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. There will be plenty of opportunities to get even in the future.

Then he took the initiative to change the subject: "By the way, Senior Sister Shen, it's been a month. I can go out now, right?"

After becoming an inner sect disciple, he could choose a favorite cultivation skill, and he had been thinking about this for a long time.

Unlike other disciples, he was not as conflicted as they were, hesitating about what to choose and feeling confused about the future.

Xiao Chen has clear goals and ideas.

For the past month, I have been looking forward to being free as soon as possible so that I can learn alchemy.
