Immortal Refiner

Li Qing did not delay and soon met with Xu Xia, the current head of Lingyun Sect.

After not seeing each other for eight years, Xu Xia's cultivation has now reached the middle stage of foundation building, and he is only one step away from the late stage of foundation building.

The speed of this kind of cultivation is neither fast nor slow, because Xu Xia's spiritual root aptitude is not that outstanding.

The reason why he was able to reach the middle stage of foundation building in eight years is also because of his current position, and he can get more cultivation resources relatively.

After all, as the head of the sect, the daily affairs of the sect to deal with are really too complicated, and the time for cultivation on weekdays is very little, so this is also the preferential treatment given to him by the sect.

"Not bad, it seems that you have been diligent in your cultivation over the years, and you are not far from the late stage of foundation building." Li Qing saw Xu Xia's progress in cultivation at a glance and commented with praise.

After hearing this, Xu Xia said modestly: "It's all thanks to Uncle Wuji's cultivation. If it weren't for the cultivation resources provided by the sect, how could I have come this far."

Li Qing felt that the style of this speech sounded a little familiar. Wasn't this the tone he always liked to use when he was modest?

Li Qing shook his head with a smile, and didn't continue to argue about it. Instead, he asked about what happened in Lingyun Sect when he was away:

"Well, tell me, what happened this time? Did the sect encounter any trouble?"

Now when saying this, Li Qing became quite confident.

As a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, even if he really encountered any trouble, he was confident that he could handle it.

Xu Xia shook his head repeatedly: "It can't be said to be a trouble, but there are some important things that need to be known to you, uncle!"

"The first thing is from Senior Tianbao of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce. Two years ago, Senior Tianbao sent someone to deliver a letter to the sect."

"As stated in the letter, some of the spiritual materials that you originally entrusted Wanbao Chamber of Commerce to search for have been collected."

"In addition, the headquarters of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce is about to hold an auction. Calculating the time, it should be less than two years away. At that time, many cultivators from large domains will come to participate. My Lingyun Sect has also received an invitation."

Wanbao Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce with power spanning many large domains. Its strength and foundation are absolutely the best in the human world. In addition, there may be an old monster in the God Transformation Stage behind its headquarters. Basically, there are not many forces in this world who dare to provoke this chamber of commerce.

And if such a powerful force wants to hold an auction, its influence is absolutely unquestionable. Maybe in this auction, you may even encounter a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage!

"The Wanbao Festival. I can go and have a look. I can learn a lot." Li Qing nodded and said to himself.

Seeing this, Xu Xia continued:

"The second thing is that several demon sects in the Great Wilderness Territory have learned about the increasingly prosperous spiritual energy in the Qingling Territory."

"But because they knew that you, the ancestor, killed the ancestor Xiaoyao by yourself, those demon sects have not made any unusual moves, but just submitted visiting cards."

Hearing this, Li Qing still nodded calmly, without any nervous or solemn expression.

Qingling Territory will enter the vision of those demon sects in the Great Wilderness Territory. He is not too surprised about this. It is just something expected.

After all, the increasingly rich and prosperous spiritual environment of a large domain is not something that can be concealed for a long time. Even the most dull cultivator can detect it.

In addition, because the situation in the Great Wilderness is becoming more and more chaotic, more and more independent cultivators are coming to the Qingling Territory to avoid the immortal war, and the news will eventually spread.

Li Qing showed a very indifferent attitude towards this, and looked very confident:

"It doesn't matter, as long as those demon sect cultivators don't come to provoke us, we don't have to pay much attention to it."

"After all, my Lingyun Sect has never regarded itself as a righteous sect, and there is no need to take the initiative to provoke the demon sects in the Great Wilderness."

Now as a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, Li Qing is naturally more confident, and he will not be as awed by those demon sects as he was before.

If they really fight, it is really unknown who will win.

I think those demon sects in the Great Wilderness are not fools, and naturally they will not come to make enemies with a Nascent Soul cultivator for no reason!

Li Qing's confidence made Xu Xia feel a lot more at ease, and then a sense of security emerged in his heart.

This is the benefit of having a Yuanying-stage ancestor in charge. You can sit back and watch the ups and downs of the world.

If Lingyun Sect is still the same as before, it will definitely be two completely different outcomes.

Maybe the minions of the Demon Sect have already reached Qingling Territory at this time.

"The third thing is that the special flame gold patterns that you asked us to search for before you left, have been found!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Qing's brows finally moved.

"Oh?"

Before he left, he told the people of the sect to search for the flame-shaped golden emblems. This was related to whether the black furnace could be re-refined into the life-destroying furnace, a spiritual treasure that could reach the sky. Li Qing naturally cared a lot about it.

You know, he traveled all over the country in his early years, and his footprints were all over many places, and he only had eleven golden flame emblems in his hand.

And there are thirty-six gaps in the inner wall of the black furnace, which means that there are still twenty-five golden fire emblems scattered in the world and nowhere to be found.

In fact, Li Qing didn't hold out much hope of collecting all of them. After all, this would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"It's a coincidence that three years ago, a land dragon turned over in the central and southern areas of Qingling Territory, and several mountains were overturned and collapsed. Many monks hiding in that area lost their lives because of it!"

"But after the land dragon turned over, it seemed that a strange cave appeared, which attracted the covetousness of many monks."

"Later, I also sent people to observe the situation outside. I happened to see someone holding three flame gold patterns that you mentioned, so I decided to exchange these flame gold patterns with a foundation-building pill and hundreds of spirit stones."

As he said, Xu Xia took out three golden flame emblems from his arms, which were exactly the same as the eleven that Li Qing got at the beginning, and they were the same style!

Recognizing it at a glance, Li Qing nodded and took the flames: "Not bad, not bad, it is indeed the kind of golden flame emblem I want."

Including the eleven in his hand, he has now collected fourteen flame gold patterns, but it is still far from a complete collection.

"Also, that person once told me that these three golden flame patterns were brought out from that cave, but I don't know if there are more in it."

After hearing this, Li Qing thought for a while, and he thought of what Senior Bailing had said at the beginning.

The original body of the black furnace is a universal spiritual treasure, called the Life-Destroying Furnace. This furnace is controlled by an old monster in the God-Transforming Stage. That person is the old man who lives in the same era as Bailing Daojun.

After Bailing Daojun passed away, he also left Li Qing the method of re-refining the Life-Destroying Furnace, but the prerequisite is to collect all these flame gold patterns.

It is said that once this furnace is fully activated, it can definitely wipe out any living creature in the world, and its power is amazing!

It is precisely for this reason that Li Qing has always had a thought in his mind, wanting to refine this furnace to its peak.

After all, he has used the black furnace very smoothly for so many years. It is not only a furnace for refining instruments, but also can be used for refining pills. The most important thing is that its defense is amazing enough, and it can even resist spatial turbulence.

Now it seems that if it can be refined into a Tongtian Lingbao, it will be even more useful.

"The mysterious cave that appeared after the earth dragon turned over. Could it be the tomb left by the old man Miesheng?"

Li Qing guessed in his heart, and he had the idea of ​​exploring it, but not now.

Soon, he said: "Well, help me write a letter to Tianbao Zhenjun of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce. I want all the spiritual materials he collected. In addition, I will not miss the auction held by the headquarters of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce."

After that, Li Qing sent Xu Xia away, and he came to the dark room deep in the cave.

Buzz~!

The door of the dark room trembled slightly, and soon the scene inside was revealed.

After not coming here for eight years, the blood pool is now completely dry, and the blood lotus growing in the center of the blood pool has also become sluggish.

Especially the petals of the blood lotus, which even have a sense of withering and decay, and are eclipsed.

"Haha, if I come back a few years later, I'm afraid I can only see a blood lotus seed." Li Qing said jokingly, and then patted the Xiaoyao Qiankun bag on his waist.

The next moment, a touch of bright red blood gushed out of the storage bag like a waterfall, pouring into the blood pool.

As the dark room was filled with a pungent bloody smell again, the blood pool was quickly filled up, rippling with scarlet ripples.

After a while, the withered blood lotus regained its vitality and soon became full again.

Looking at the blood lotus swaying gently in the blood pool, Li Qing once again released a lot of blood from the third-level beasts, all of which were poured into the blood pool.

The more it was poured in, the faster the blood lotus absorbed, as if it would never overflow.

Then, Li Qing flew up and sat directly on the blood lotus seat.

Almost instantly, the blood lotus seat wrapped around Li Qing, and this time it was faster and more intense than any other time.

Even though he had experienced it more than once, Li Qing couldn't help but gasp when he felt the infusion of the life source.

This feeling made almost every cell in his body cheer. Since he achieved the Nascent Soul cultivation, his life source has been in a state of loss.

In addition, in order to train Lin Jing's physique in the polar night world, he still consumed a lot of blood and life essence.

"Hiss, this feeling is really like ascending in broad daylight."

Li Qing's body was trembling slightly, and as the blood lotus injected the pure life source into his body, his subconscious was inevitably affected again.

Fortunately, a burst of exquisite fairy music resounded in Li Qing's body, and soon these evil thoughts that changed his subconscious were wiped out and expelled.

This is the beauty of exquisite fairy music. Even if it cannot be activated actively, it can make countless cultivators jealous just by passively protecting the master and preventing him from falling into the state of demonic possession.

In this way, during this process, Li Qing's life source gradually became full and vigorous.

As a result, the blood and qi pill he cultivated in the polar night world also became stronger.

Indistinctly, the blood pill seemed to be about to ignite a flame, which made Li Qing a little at a loss.

"Blood flame? What's going on?"

He didn't know whether this was good or bad, but he had to suppress it first and stop the blood pill from growing stronger.

In addition, Li Qing's magic power gradually became deeper.

Although the progress is still very slow, it is indeed improving!

This was far more efficient than his meditative practice. Li Qing was very intoxicated by the feeling of seeing his cultivation level growing bit by bit.

"It's incredible. Just such a short time is equivalent to the more than ten years of meditating and cultivating Qi."

While Li Qing was refining the origin that had been transformed from the Blood Lotus Platform, he continued to replenish the blood pool with the blood of third-level beasts.

At this time, there is still a lot of blood of third-level alien beasts in the Xiaoyao Qiankun bag, which can be replenished almost continuously for a long time. This means that Li Qing's practice can last for a long time this time.

As time went by, Li Qing's aura became more and more profound. He had already traveled a considerable distance in the early stages of the Nascent Soul stage.

In the blink of an eye, half a year passed just like that!

Li Qing, who was intoxicated with the blood lotus, finally consumed all the blood of the alien beasts in the Xiaoyao Qiankun bag.

After the lotus petals slowly opened, Li Qing's figure sitting cross-legged in the center of the lotus platform was slowly revealed.

"Huh, it's unbelievable. After half a year of hard training, my cultivation has improved to this level."

Feeling the full mana in his body and his strong life source, Li Qing couldn't help but gasp again, his face was extremely amazed.

His cultivation level is already approaching the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and he is only as thin as a layer of window paper. It seems that he can enter the middle stage of Nascent Soul at any time. At most, he is only one chance away from being able to pierce that layer of window paper.

As for what that opportunity is, Li Qing has already been prepared.

He can now enter the realm of the middle Nascent Soul stage at any time, leaving many monks in the Nascent Soul Stage just within reach.

But Li Qing doesn't plan to do that, because the improvement this time is really too big. He plans to spend some more time to slowly understand his progress in cultivation and feel his changes.

In order to avoid being too unstable after breaking through in time, after all, taking shortcuts like this always has some inevitable disadvantages.

"We are one step away from the middle stage of Nascent Soul. I don't know if there has been a monk as fast as me in this world since ancient times."

Of course, Li Qing is not being arrogant. After all, he has spent many years in the polar night world. This is a time that he has experienced personally.

So if I have to say it, his pace is not that fast or exaggerated, and his foundation is still very solid.

Especially in the context of the Age of Ending Law, the suppression of him by heaven and earth seems to have brought some unexpected benefits. At least it has consolidated his foundation and prevented Li Qing from taking such a big step at this time and causing instability in his breath and state. Vain.

In that case, he may have to spend a longer time polishing his realm to avoid encountering insurmountable bottlenecks when making breakthroughs in the future.

"It seems that the end of the Dharma Age in the Extreme Night World is not without its benefits. If there are monks in that world who can survive this extremely spiritual end of the Dharma Age and usher in the revival of spiritual energy, their cultivation level may not be able to directly make a leap."

Li Qing smiled and muttered to himself, very satisfied with the results of his practice this time.
