Immortal Refiner

Chapter 660 Continue to practice

After receiving the nearly complete inheritance of the Scarlet Huang Tianjun, Li Qing had no intention of staying in this inner space, but left immediately.

The harvest this time was really so rich that Li Qing, who had always been calm and calm, could not help but feel a strong throbbing.

The road can be expected!

This time, the Great Dao is truly within reach. After acquiring the complete Red Glory Burning Heaven Technique, he can continue practicing without any scruples.

And if he really succeeds in condensing the baby in the future, he can return here again and conquer the third heaven and earth spiritual fire, the black and yellow true flame!

I think with my previous experience, it will be much smoother to conquer the Xuanhuang True Flame in the future.

After all, the two have collaborated!

"Huh! Next is the Fire Jade Bee Queen. There is not enough fire essence here. If we don't take away that swarm of Fire Jade Bees, they will gradually die out in the future."

With that said, Li Qing left the magma sea in the center of the earth and returned to the intricate passages of the Fire Cliff Cave that extended in all directions.

Buzz!

Returning to the passage node where the Fire Jade Bee was, Cao Xiu had been waiting here for a long time.

"Senior Li! Are you back?!"

"There was so much noise outside Huoya Cave just now that I didn't dare to walk around. I wonder what the situation is like outside now?"

Cao Xiu looked at Li Qing who was walking slowly in surprise. After confirming that Li Qing was okay, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"The matter has been resolved. It's not a big trouble. I will subdue this swarm of fire jade bees and then leave."

With that said, Li Qing approached the ruby ​​hive suspended in the air.

Like a beehive made of beautiful red jade, there are many Fire Jade Bees flying around, wary of Li Qing who is slowly approaching.

Soon, after Li Qing approached the bottom of the ruby ​​hive, these Fire Jade Bees finally rushed out in a swarm.

Buzz! Buzz!

Thick fire jade bees rushed towards Li Qing. In order to protect the hive and the queen, these fire jade bees were not afraid of death and were very brave.

Of course, Li Qing is not an ordinary monk in the alchemy stage. Not only has his physical cultivation reached the peak of the third level, he is comparable to the monster beasts in the late third level, and he also has magic weapons to protect him.

Golden jade clothes!

Li Qing's spiritual thoughts moved slightly, and the protective clothing made of golden silkworms glowed with a layer of spiritual light, blocking the incoming fire jade bees.

Ignoring the harassment of these Fire Jade Bees, Li Qing's consciousness reached out and penetrated into the red jade beehive above.

The structure of the honeycomb is extremely complex and is divided into many parts.

There are still many Fire Jade Bee eggs that have not hatched out, and some young bees waiting for food are sucking the remaining fire source sap in the hive.

But the Fire Jade Queen Bee that Li Qing cares about is perched in the center of the hive!

"found it!"

Li Qing's eyes moved slightly, then he flew up and flew directly to the beehive.

His spiritual consciousness is very powerful, which is comparable to the soul strength of a monk in the Nascent Soul stage.

So he didn't even need to break open the ruby ​​hive, he only needed to plant a spiritual bond of recognition on it from the outside world.

boom!

Li Qing spread his consciousness and directly penetrated the entire hive.

The next moment, the Fire Jade Bee queen inside the hive trembled violently, as if she was making a difficult confrontation.

However, this confrontation did not last long. After only a few breaths, the Fire Jade Queen Bee gave up her resistance and allowed Li Qing to forcefully plant the brand of consciousness.

After doing all this, a hint of joy gradually appeared on the corner of Li Qing's mouth.

The process went quite smoothly, and he had successfully conquered the queen of the Fire Jade Bee!

"It's true that I underestimated the strength of my soul. Conquering a mere second-level spirit insect is indeed not a difficult task."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qing gave an order to the Fire Jade Bee Queen, asking her to take back all the Fire Jade Bees that were relentlessly harassing him outside.

The moment the command was issued, the buzzing Fire Jade Bees around them immediately became quiet, and then quickly got back into the hive.

This is a unique communication method among the Fire Jade Bees. As long as the queen bee gives any order, these Fire Jade Bees will immediately receive it and then strictly implement the order!

So if Li Qing controls this Fire Jade Queen, he controls the entire Fire Jade Bee Swarm!

Like the previous Jie Xiu who chased Cao Xiu, he planted divine consciousness marks on multiple Fire Jade Bees. This placed a heavy burden on the soul and was a very inferior approach.

"Now there are a little more divine consciousness imprints planted, including Fantong, Chongjiu, three golden silkworms, five corpse puppets, and now there is one more Fire Jade Queen Bee!"

Li Qing sighed, even with his current strength of consciousness, he didn't have much left.

If you want to continue to conquer other monsters or spiritual insects in the future, you have to consider the burden on your soul.

"time to go!"

Outside the Huoya Cave, two figures slowly walked out of the dark cave.

These two people were Cao Xiu and Li Qing. After finishing this experience, there was no need to stay inside anymore.

"Cao Xiu, what are your plans next?" Li Qing looked at the young man next to him who was half a head shorter than him.

After hearing this, Cao Xiu thought for a while, and then suddenly knelt down as if he remembered something:

"Senior Li, please take me as your disciple!"

Intend? Although Cao Xiu has reached the foundation-building stage, he is still a lonely and casual cultivator.

Li Qing had just demonstrated his profound cultivation and powerful means, so he naturally wanted to become his disciple.

Looking at Cao Xiu who suddenly knelt down, Li Qing shook his head with a smile.

He suddenly thought of the days in Qinghuatan, when Cao Xiu's mother Hu Sanniang hoped that he could accept Cao Xiu as his disciple.

However, Li Qing's cultivation was still shallow at that time, so he naturally had no intention of accepting a disciple.

Time flies, and now so many years have passed. Unknowingly, he has become a cultivator who has completed the Jindan stage and stands at the top of the Qingling domain.

But even so, he still has no intention of accepting the other party as a disciple.

Because Bailing Daojun had told him before that Cao Xiu might be a cultivator who is suitable to inherit his mantle.

With an agreement in advance, Li Qing naturally would not compete with Bailing Daojun for a disciple.

But Bailing Daojun has not made up his mind. As for accepting Cao Xiu as his last disciple to inherit his mantle, Bailing Daojun is still considering this matter.

So Li Qing planned to settle him in Lingyun Sect first, and wait until Bailing Daojun made a decision in the future.

With this in mind, Li Qing took out a plain jade pendant from his arms, with the words Ling and Yun engraved on the front and back respectively!

"You practice the Golden Dao technique, and my inheritance is not suitable for you."

As soon as these words came out, Cao Xiu, who lowered his head, flashed a gloomy look in his eyes.

But Li Qing continued, "Take this Ascension Order to Lingyun Sect, and you can directly become the foreign affairs elder of Lingyun Sect, and you will have a place to stay in the future."

"The life of a casual cultivator is difficult and hard, but when you join Lingyun Sect, you don't have to live such a life anymore."

"And I promise that if you join Lingyun Sect, there may be a great opportunity waiting for you in the future!"

Cao Xiu took the Ascension Order in a daze, looking at the two words Lingyun engraved on it.

Join Lingyun Sect? ! Become an elder?

This was something he never dared to dream of. Now Lingyun Sect is the giant of the immortal way in Qingling Domain, overlooking the entire Qingling Domain's immortal cultivation world.

However, he is now a cultivator in the foundation-building period, and it is a bit inappropriate for him to join this sect.

He never expected that Li Qing would actually give him a Lingyun Sect's immortal order.

"Here, here."

"Huh!"

"Thank you, Senior Li!"

Cao Xiu kowtowed heavily to Li Qing on the ground. He did not refuse the immortal order because it was really important to him.

"The sect is in need of manpower, so you don't have to thank me so much."

"Also, here are some fire source slurries, which are a kind of spiritual thing brewed by fire jade bees. It has the effect of strengthening the foundation and nourishing the essence, and can take your cultivation to a higher level."

After that, Li Qing took some fire source slurries to Cao Xiu.

These are just fire source slurries brewed by second-level fire jade bees. They are not very meaningful to him, and it is more appropriate to use them as rewards to Cao Xiu.

"How can I do this?" Cao Xiu refused.

But Li Qing forced it into his mouth: "Take it if I tell you to. These fire source pastes are not very useful to me. If you don't want them, I will use them to reward the disciples of the sect."

Only then did Cao Xiu nod and accept the fire source paste given to him by Li Qing.

After doing all this, Li Qing nodded with satisfaction.

"Okay, next you should prepare and go directly to Lingyun Sect. If you encounter any problems in the sect, you can find any of the supreme elders. Then you can report my name."

"I still have some things to do and need to continue to experience in the mortal world. I won't keep you any longer."

"Finally, it's still the same old saying. Cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat!"

After saying that, Li Qing, with a gentle smile on his face, turned into a ray of spiritual light and disappeared on the spot, leaving Cao Xiu alone in a daze.

Cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat!

It was the same words as before, but now it once again fell into Cao Xiu's ears, but it made him feel a completely different mood from before.

"Senior Li, you are really a great man of Taoism"

After saying goodbye to Cao Xiu, Li Qing, who was in a very good mood, began a new round of training.

This time, he passed through Tianhefang Market and stayed in Qinghuatan for a while.

Then, he went to the mountain gate where Tianhe Sect used to be located and watched the extremely magnificent scenery here.

The sea of ​​clouds was stacked on the high mountains. Looking at this extremely magnificent scenery, Li Qing once again had some insights in his heart.

He thought of the Tianhe Sect at the beginning and thought of many things at the beginning.

"No matter how powerful the sect is, there will be a day when it will pass away."

Then he left here again, went west along the Black Sand River, and finally came to the foot of a green mountain range that stretched endlessly between heaven and earth.

Xiaocui Ridge!

Li Qing did not hesitate and went directly into Xiaocui Ridge, following some routes in his memory.

Finally, he came to a spiritual stone mine area!

There used to be a spiritual stone vein here, which originally belonged to Tianhe Sect, and then was seized by Shangqing Sect. Now, after some twists and turns, it has fallen into the hands of Lingyun Sect.

Compared with the past, this spiritual stone vein has become much poorer, and at most 7,000 to 8,000 spiritual stones are mined every year, which is not so rich anymore.

However, even so, there are still two immortal cultivation families responsible for mining and excavation here, which brings Lingyun Sect a lot of spiritual stone income.

Looking at the familiar scene of the mine, Li Qing showed a nostalgic smile on his face.

He thought of the days when he was mining here, of some of his mining friends, and of his former guide, Mr. Zhou.

"Mr. Zhou, the Eagle Thief who killed you has died in my hands. You can sleep peacefully under the Nine Springs."

After saying that, Li Qing remembered that Zhou Tong didn't even have a grave.

\u0026t;divtentadv\u003eHe thought for a while, then cut out a piece of hard granite from the mountain, and then carved on it with his finger and pen.

"Zhou Tong's Tomb, the best spiritual miner!"

He erected the tombstone in a secret place near the mine, hugged his fists deeply, and left the place.

After that, Li Qing came to the place where the Liu family’s spiritual veins were.

Because of the changes in the world, the spiritual energy here has become more and more powerful. Although it is a second-level spiritual vein, the spiritual energy around it is somewhat rich and outrageous.

Even if it can't be compared with the third-level spiritual veins, it's not far behind.

Now of course the Liu family is gone, and this place is occupied by a family named Meng.

"The Meng family."

Li Qing squinted his eyes and felt that this rare surname seemed familiar, and he felt like he was on a whim.

Has he come into contact with any monks named Meng in his life?

Li Qing frowned slowly and began to carefully search some memories in his mind.

After a long time, Li Qing suddenly raised his head, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

He finally remembered.

When he was in the Tianhe Sect, he met a down-and-out stall owner. At that time, he bought two classics from the other person at a very low price, namely The Art of Refining Fragments and The Secret Technique of Sealing Wood!

The reason why he could use such a low price was because he made a verbal promise to the other party at that time, that is, when he was able in the future, he promised to repair a top-quality magic weapon for the other party.

However, because he did not swear to the demons in his heart, Li Qing gradually forgot about this matter over the years.

"Although I didn't swear the inner demon oath, it can be regarded as a cause and effect. When I break through the Nascent Soul stage in the future, there may be some obstacles because of this."

Li Qing murmured to himself, and then sneaked directly into the Meng family.

This family is a newly emerging family in the past few years. Although its background is shallow, it has cooperated with Lingyun Sect to mine the spirit stone veins, and its development momentum is pretty good.

Li Qing just scanned the area with his spiritual consciousness and understood the general situation of this family.

There are many monks in the entire family who are in the late stages of Qi refining, and quite a few of them are relatively young and have great potential in the future.

As for the monks in the foundation building stage, there is only one, the head of the Meng family, Meng Mingyun. His cultivation level is in the middle stage of foundation building, and there is a faint tendency to enter the late stage of foundation building.

Without saying anything, Li Qing directly approached the foundation-building monk named Meng Mingyun.

"Master Meng, please come out of seclusion and see me."

In the middle of a spiritual lake in the Meng family's land, there was a small island rich in spiritual energy. Li Qing sneaked in without anyone noticing and directly found the foundation-building monk named Meng Mingyun.

This sound transmission accurately reached the ears of Meng Mingyun who was sitting in seclusion!

"Huh?" Meng Mingyun, who was in seclusion, immediately opened his eyes. After sensing the breath outside, he ran out in fear.

"My dear, Meng Mingyun, I have met Master Jiedan!"

"I wonder if the Meng family has offended someone? I hope senior will be more tolerant!"

He didn't even dare to look at Li Qing. As soon as he ran out of the cave, he knelt down. It can be said that he had a strong desire to survive.

"Haha, get up. I'm not here to seek revenge or trouble, but I want to find out something from you." Li Qing smiled warmly.

After hearing this, Meng Mingyun breathed a sigh of relief, and in an instant, his whole body was already soaked.

At this time, he slowly raised his head and looked at the tall figure standing with his hands behind his back outside the cave.

"Are you Mr. Wuji?"

Seeing that the other party recognized him, Li Qing just smiled and nodded: "Have you seen me?"

"At the Lingyun Sect's opening ceremony, I was lucky enough to take a look at my senior from a distance!" Meng Mingyun looked at Li Qing with respect, and his tone was as awe-inspiring as possible.

In response, Li Qing just waved his hand and said straight to the point: "I came here this time because I want to know if your Meng family has such a monk. This is what he looked like when he was young."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qing reflected the scene in his sea of ​​consciousness directly on Meng Mingyun's sea of ​​consciousness.

Before he could sigh at the powerful methods of Master Jiedan, Meng Mingyun was stunned. His eyes flickered and said: "This third uncle? Senior Wuji knows me, my third uncle?"

In this way, with the introduction of Meng Mingyun, Li Qing finally met the third uncle of the Meng family who was obviously aging.

There are many wrinkles on his face, and his hair has become a lot grayer. Only some of his former appearance can be vaguely recognized in his eyebrows.

Yes, this person is much older than before, and it seems that his life has not been very good these years.

"Meng Qi has met the head of the family!"

After hearing this, Meng Mingyun immediately helped the other party up. He said anxiously: "Third uncle, please don't do this. This is really embarrassing for me, this junior. Someone wants to see you when I come here."

As he said that, Meng Mingyun winked hard at Meng Qi. He didn't know what he meant. All in all, it was extremely complicated.

Meng Qi was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the tall figure behind Meng Mingyun.

At this time, Li Qing had restrained all his aura and could not see anything surprising at all.

Meng Qi looked at him for a long time, but he still couldn't remember him. He had no impression of him at all, not even the basic sense of familiarity.

"Haha, it seems that Fellow Daoist Meng has forgotten Li. At the beginning in Tianhe Market, Li promised you that he would repair a top-grade magic weapon for you after he had the ability."

"Now I have the ability, and now I come as promised!"

Li Qing said with a smile.

Tianhe Market, repairing top-grade magic weapons?

Hearing this, Meng Qi finally recalled the time when he was a poor vendor in Tianhe Market.

At that time, he was just an orphan of the Meng family and could only live a lonely life in the market.

Unfortunately, although he recalled these, he still couldn't remember Li Qing.

But this is also a very normal thing, Li Qing expressed his understanding.

Then, he pointed his fingertips and transmitted some pictures of the incident into the other party's mind.

"Fellow Daoist, are you a weapon refiner?"

"I know a little bit!"

"What I want you to do is not difficult. When you have mastered the weapon refinement technique, how about helping me repair a magic weapon?"

"."

"I can promise you this, but I will never take any risks when doing things. Do you understand?!"

"Deal!"

Finally, with these familiar scenes, Meng Qi finally found the original deal from his long-lost memory.

"It turned out to be you!"

"Fellow Daoist is really a trustworthy person. After so many years, you still remember this!"

Meng Qi murmured, looking a little dazed.

"But that top-grade magic weapon has been repaired and is now intact in the family, so there is no need for you to do anything."

This was not unexpected to Li Qing. With the current strength of the Meng family, it should not be too difficult to find a few weapon refiners who can repair top-grade magic weapons.

But this made it impossible for him to fulfill his original promise.

"Fellow Daoist Meng, the two secret techniques you sold me were of great help to me. Now I want to repay this favor. How about it?"

Meng Qi shook his head and said, "It's just a normal transaction. How can I talk about favors? But I admire you for being so trustworthy!"

Meng Mingyun, who was standing aside, kept winking at him, and his eyelids were a little sore at this moment.

Li Qing laughed and said, "I wonder if you have a family?"

Before Meng Qi could speak, Meng Mingyun took the lead in answering for his third uncle:

"My third uncle has a son, who is now working in the family!"

After hearing this, Li Qing took out a token, which was still the immortal order engraved with the word Lingyun: "This token allows you or your descendants to enter the Lingyun Sect to practice, and you can get a foundation-building pill!"

"It's up to you how to use it."

When these words came out, Meng Qi was completely stunned. He was also a cultivator, so how could he not know what this meant.

Being able to join the Lingyun Sect and get a foundation-building pill!

Isn't this the legendary Ascension Order? !

Without letting the other party refuse, Li Qing directly threw the Ascension Order to the other party.

"Take it, Fellow Daoist Meng, don't refuse!"

The token was made of jade and was extremely warm, but Meng Qi still hadn't reacted.

However, at this point, Li Qing's goal was achieved.

"In the future, the spiritual stones mined by the Meng family from the veins can be reduced by 10%!"

This was said to Meng Mingyun, the head of the Meng family, and it was also a benefit he gave to the entire Meng family.

Hearing this, Meng Mingyun clasped his fists with gratitude and said, "Junior thanks the senior for his gift!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Qing's figure had disappeared.

"Hahahaha, Third Uncle, do you know who that was just now?"

"Our Meng family is finally prosperous this time!"

Meng Mingyun said excitedly, his tone was extremely excited.

"I think it should be a Jindan ancestor of Lingyun Sect?" Meng Qi looked at the Ascension Order in his hand, looked at the two words Lingyun Sect on it, and thought about what he said before, and he had a rough guess.

"That's right! Third Uncle didn't expect you to have made friends with such an existence!" Meng Mingyun said excitedly.

But Meng Qi shook his head calmly, he sighed and said: "Alas, silly nephew!"

"In fact, I have already guessed it. You just kept winking at me too much. At that time, I pretended to be reserved just to make this master owe our Meng family a favor!"

"Alas, but it doesn't matter. This senior is so trustworthy and trustworthy. I think even if the Meng family is in trouble in the future, we can ask him to help us."

"."
