Immortal Refiner

Chapter 404 Puppet Master

Li Qing, holding the jade box in his hand, couldn't help but feel excited.

Purple Palace Spiritual Liquid!

The spiritual material for forming a pill that countless foundation-building cultivators dreamed of day and night was now in his hands.

Although there were only ten drops, which could barely increase the success rate of forming a pill, it was also a great gain.

You should know that this was only the first day of the black market opening. As long as you can do it for a long time in the future, there may be opportunities to find more spiritual materials for forming a pill!

With this in mind, Li Qing slightly opened the box made of precious jade and used his spiritual sense to explore it for observation.

In the jade box was a layer of gold foil-like brocade, and on this golden brocade, ten drops of purple liquid, about the size of watermelon seeds, lay quietly inside.

Although this was something in liquid state, it did not penetrate into the golden brocade. This state was more like mercury, or liquid metal.

Just the moment the lid of the box was opened, wisps of purple air escaped, clear and transparent.

After seeing this scene, Li Qing immediately closed the lid again, not letting the purple air escape.

Yes, this is the real Purple Palace Spiritual Liquid!

Even though Li Qing had never seen such a heaven-defying spiritual object before, he could now clearly identify it.

Forcibly suppressing his excitement, Li Qing put away the jade box and the spiritual stone, and said to the two people wearing bamboo hats in front of him:

"Yes, it is indeed Purple Palace Spiritual Liquid."

Originally, Li Qing wanted to ask the other party if there was more Purple Palace Spiritual Liquid, but after thinking about it, he finally decided not to ask.

Purple Palace Spiritual Liquid is an absolutely precious thing for any cultivator in the foundation-building period. The other party must have made a great determination to take out ten drops today.

If he asked again, it would be a bit ignorant.

Li Qing wanted to make some friends with these two mysterious men in bamboo hats, but this was a black market, not a place suitable for making friends.

Everyone came here to conceal their identities, so it was best to be careful.

Li Qing, who had a long life, understood the principle of the four words "there is a long way to go".

"My fellow Taoist, will you still sell red crystals like this in the future?" the young man in bamboo hat asked.

Hearing this, Li Qing answered ambiguously: "Maybe, maybe not. This red crystal was not made by me. It all depends on the mood of a senior."

Li Qing tried his best to create a false background behind this black market to make the other party feel apprehensive.

So far, the time for free trading is also coming to an end. Because most of the people present are casual cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, the level of transactions is relatively low, and Li Qing doesn't look down on it.

However, this is already a very good start. As long as the black market continues to open in the future, it will definitely attract more and more cultivators to enter.

At that time, he and Shen Ningbing can also use this platform to rise rapidly and gain enough benefits.

"Everyone, as I said before, all the Taoist friends who come here today will be honored guests of the black market."

"Next, each of you can receive a token. If you want to do business here in the future, you can be exempted from one month's handling fee with this token!"

As he said, Li Qing, who had returned to the stands, took out dozens of black iron tokens from the storage bag and distributed them all.

Everyone received a black iron token, regardless of whether it would really be used, in short, everyone put it away properly.

This is a marketing strategy that Li Qing learned from his previous life. Regardless of whether the customer is willing to consume, the benefits will be distributed first. There will always be someone who is thinking about this benefit and thinks it would be a pity if it is not used.

"Excuse me, sir, how often will such a trade fair be opened in the black market in the future?"

Someone raised such a question. Obviously, everyone is most concerned about this free trade fair.

If it can be held frequently, it would be a great thing, and it would definitely be convenient for many people!

Li Qing had expected this.

"Hehe, the date of the black market trade fair is not fixed!"

"But I promise you that as long as you often visit the black market, you will never miss the trade fair."

After saying that, Li Qing snapped his fingers, and a cluster of cold white flames surged from his fingertips.

The next moment, the entire underground square trembled, and several exits suddenly opened on the ground above, all leading to the outside.

"I declare that today's trade fair is officially over. Next, you can leave freely, or you can put out the things you want to sell and continue to trade."

After leaving this sentence, Li Qing took the lead and jumped, and his figure quickly flew towards an exit.

Many monks present also left towards various exits.

"Young master, follow me closely!" Fu Bo said in a deep voice. They showed off their wealth on this trip, and it was hard to guarantee that they would not be targeted after they went out.

They even took out ten drops of the Purple Palace Spiritual Liquid, so someone would definitely think that they had more.

Not to mention the other fellows in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he even didn't trust the mysterious hooded man who just hosted the trade fair.

He believed and was sure that there were few cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage who could resist the temptation of the Purple Palace Spiritual Liquid, just because it was a Jindan spiritual object!

After saying that, he took the noble young man beside him and flew towards another exit.

During the process, he unceremoniously released his aura of pressure!

Boom!

Late stage of foundation building!

This tall and burly man wearing a bamboo hat was actually a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building.

Many Qi-refining cultivators who were close to him felt a suffocating pressure at this moment.

And the other fellow cultivators in the foundation building stage who were present also slowly retracted their gazes from time to time on the man in the bamboo hat and no longer paid much attention to him.

Late stage of foundation building, this is not a realm that ordinary casual cultivators can reach. If the cultivation aptitude is average, it requires a huge amount of immortal cultivation resources to pile up.

Obviously, this person's identity and background are extremely extraordinary, and it seems that they can't provoke him.

On the other side, Li Qing, who was the first to rush out of the underground square, immediately stopped flying, and changed his body shape in the broken narrow alleys one after another, and quickly shuttled.

He got ten drops of Purple Mansion Spiritual Liquid today, plus a considerable amount of Spiritual Stones. Besides, as the host of the black market, many people will definitely be curious about him.

"No one followed? They are all so honest?" Li Qing couldn't help but look back, wondering if this was too smooth? !

But smooth is a good thing, he doesn't want to be targeted by others for no reason.

However, the next moment, a loud noise suddenly came from a very hidden cave!

Boom!

The mud splashed, and a figure covered with black cloth rushed out, at a very fast speed, with a clear target, it was Li Qing!

Seeing this scene, Li Qing's pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly!

"How could someone ambush me here? Something's wrong!"

He was the first person to rush out of the underground square, and the exits he chose were all random. Even if someone targeted him, they could only follow from behind. How could they rush out in front of him? !

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The figure wrapped in black cloth took heavy steps, but his speed was not slow at all, and every step made the ground tremble.

"No, this person's breath is very strange. And his body movements are a little stiff."

\u0026t;divtentadv\u0026gt;Li Qing did not dodge, but squinted his eyes and looked at the strange figure rushing towards him.

"Puppet!"

Soon, Li Qing came to a conclusion in his mind.

This turned out to be a second-level puppet, not a real living person.

"It seems that there is a second-level puppeteer below, who is good at making and controlling puppets."

"That person arranged the puppets on the ground in advance to deal with various emergencies. This is very thoughtful."

"It seems that the purple mansion spirit liquid in my body has made him excited. Does he want to use the puppet to test my strength?"

This is the first time Li Qing has fought with a puppeteer, but he is not very panicked, because the other party has a backhand, how can he be defenseless?

The next moment, a large area of ​​ice suddenly condensed on the ground, and then sharp ice spikes emerged from the ice and stabbed directly at the puppet wrapped in black cloth.

Ding Ding Ding!

A series of crisp collision sounds rang out, and these ice spikes did not penetrate the puppet, but only destroyed the black cloth on the surface of the puppet, revealing its bronze body.

What a strong body!

"Is this a puppet made of pure metal spiritual materials? It is so hard that my junior sister can't do anything to him for a while." Li Qing said to himself in his heart.

Facing the second-level puppet rushing straight towards him, Li Qing encouraged his own blood and qi, and then silently operated the Brahma King True Body.

In terms of the physical body alone, he is a physical cultivator in the late second stage, and he is not inferior even to a puppet made of metal spiritual materials.

What's more, he has gilded armor!

The blood and qi burst out, and Li Qing's strength suddenly increased a lot. He continued to stimulate the spiritual power in his body and completely wrapped his fist with the gilded armor.

The next moment, Li Qing's huge fist like a casserole turned silver, and he punched the puppet that was already a few feet away from him without flinching!

Boom!

The silver light flew, and the air was rubbed to make a sonic boom.

Then, a deafening sound rang out.

Bang!

The shock wave formed by pure strength spread out instantly, and the broken walls around were directly blasted down.

The extremely solid metal puppet was unable to move at this moment, and the whole solid body kept shaking, looking like it was about to fall apart and explode at any time.

"Sure enough, there is a spiritual imprint!"

Li Qing keenly noticed some spiritual fluctuations in the puppet. Without thinking, he punched again at the place where the spiritual fluctuations came from.

However, this punch was also wrapped with a strong cold white flame.

Netherworld cold fire!

Boom!

This kind of spiritual fire of heaven and earth can not only burn the flesh, but also has a very strong killing power on the spirit.

When Li Qing refined this ball of original fire, his own soul was greatly traumatized.

Now facing this spiritual mark that controls the puppet, he naturally used the Netherworld cold fire at the first time.

The flames instantly rolled into the gap of the puppet's body like a maggot on the tarsal bone, and quickly burned towards the spiritual mark.

Chi Chi!

The Netherworld cold fire began to burn this soul mark, just like spring snow touching a red-hot iron, and it quickly melted away!

After a while, the puppet completely stopped all movements and collapsed to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut.

At this point, the puppet was ownerless.

Without thinking, Li Qing directly put the puppet into the storage bag, and then sent a voice message in a direction:

"Let's go!"

Then, a figure wearing a black hood flew out and quickly left the city with Li Qing.

"Brother, the puppeteer is likely still in the black market. Why don't you go back and find him and kill him?" Shen Ningbing asked in a voice message.

To this, Li Qing responded quickly:

"First, the black market has just opened and needs a certain reputation and credibility. If you rashly kill people in it, it will have a bad impact."

"Second, I suspect that the puppeteer may not even be in the black market himself. Maybe he sent another puppet to enter the black market instead of him?"

After these two judgments came out, Shen Ningbing was slightly stunned, and the light in his eyes flickered.

The second possibility is indeed very high, and there is even a high probability that it is the fact, but she did not expect this.

As expected, she is still far behind Senior Brother Li.

Shen Ningbing could not help but sigh in her heart, and was once again impressed by the meticulous mind of her Senior Brother Li.

In a broken tile house in the northern district of Xiangyang City, a figure sitting cross-legged in the house trembled violently.

"Puff!"

The figure could not help but spit out a mouthful of bright red blood, and his face turned extremely pale in an instant.

"What the hell, it's actually a physical cultivator who has mastered the Netherworld Cold Fire!"

"If I had known this, I would not have done it. I lost a second-level puppet for nothing. This time it's really a big loss."

The man's voice was weak with strong regret, and his eyes were full of pain.

He never thought that the person who attacked today was actually a powerful physical cultivator whose physical body was not inferior to his second-level puppet!

In addition, that person actually mastered the Netherworld Cold Fire, which specializes in the soul!

The combination of the two is simply the nemesis of these puppeteers!

The biggest advantage of puppets is that they are fearless and brave. As long as the materials are sufficient, they can refine extremely strong puppets, and even ignore most spell attacks.

Just like the ice spikes sent by Shen Ningbing just now, it didn't have much impact on his second-level puppet, but just tore a layer of black cloth.

Once an ordinary foundation-building cultivator encounters such a puppet, it will be extremely troublesome, and there is no way to deal with his puppet.

With the help of the puppet just now, he defeated many fellows in the foundation-building period.

However, today he finally capsized in the gutter. Not only did he not gain anything, but he also lost an extremely precious puppet, and even his soul suffered a serious injury.

"What the hell, this black market can't be messed up anymore. There are actually two powerful foundation-building cultivators sitting here, and their backgrounds are extremely mysterious, as if they just appeared out of thin air."

"What a pity, the Purple Palace Spiritual Liquid, a spiritual item that you may not be able to encounter in your entire life, just missed it."

"."

After saying this, the man slowly stood up and walked out of the dilapidated tile house.

In the tile house, a cold and skinny corpse lay quietly on the ground, revealing an expression of unwillingness to close his eyes.

There is only one chapter today. The cold has not completely healed yet. I'll rest early tonight. I'll make up for it after the cold is healed!
