Immortality begins with sect servants

Return to your residence.

Li An was still a little depressed.

I actually got myself into a trap...

"Tan Qingxue's personal contribution points are estimated to be no more than 4,000 points, which is definitely much less than Sun Lin..."

"She is no longer a match for Sun Lin in the Fu Hall, so she can only fight in other ways."

"Second-grade elixirs can be exchanged for thousands of contribution points, but going to the Spiritual Beast Mountain Range... is somewhat risky."

In fact, Li An has paid attention to the news about the Spirit Beast Mountain Range. Since the battle at Lingzhi Mountain, the Hundred Beast Sect has not disturbed the Xuanyang Sect headquarters again, and the Spirit Beast Mountain Range has returned to normal and is no longer as dangerous as before.

Many disciples with low cultivation level poured into it and gained a lot. In the past year, it was rare to hear of any disciples being injured or killed.

When going to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, as long as he doesn't go into those dangerous places and coupled with his own experience, Li An can almost ensure his own safety.

But he is relatively averse to risks. After all, he is doing well in Futang and has a long life. He can just break through step by step. How wonderful...

However, after laying out the newly obtained high-quality talisman pens and talisman papers, Li An was still quite happy.

The exquisite talisman pen is made of special white jade and spirit wolf hair. The body of the pen is engraved with the rune of a simple bird.

The perception and depiction of the avenue will be more accurate with high-quality talisman pens!

As for the high-quality talisman paper, there are a total of seventy pieces, each one is as white as snow, with a delicate and heavy texture, and is made through multiple processes.

——Originally, even a first-level mid-level Talisman Master was only issued twenty Talisman Papers every month. The extra fifty Talisman Papers were bought by Li An for two spiritual stones.

After all, if you are going to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, it is necessary to make more preparations!

"When going to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, chance or anything else doesn't matter. The key is to be able to retreat safely when encountering danger."

Li An had an idea.

"The Cold Rain Talisman, an upgraded version of the Cold Wind Talisman, is a control rune that can slow down the enemy's movement to a greater extent!"

"The running talisman can greatly increase the running speed for a short period of time. It is very good for escaping!"

"In addition, you can also refine some earth trap talisman and thorn talisman! They will help save your life."

Holding the heavy high-quality talisman pen and concentrating carefully, the super-sensory technique was operating to the extreme. Every subtle change in the brush strokes became very clear in his eyes.

He began to use his pen, using his spiritual ink on the snow-white talisman paper, to outline one avenue symbol after another.

The first talisman paper was only half drawn before it was damaged.

However, Ang Lee was not discouraged, which is already pretty good!

He drew fourteen talisman papers in a row, and finally drew a speed talisman on the fifteenth one!

"The speed talisman is only effective for three minutes, one piece is not enough!"

Li An was quite happy.

In three minutes, you can do a lot in battle, but when you are running for your life, the distance you can escape is not that far.

He continued to draw symbols.

…

That night, he exhausted seventy talisman papers and drew a total of three talismans!

The success rate is far less than one in ten.

A first-level mid-grade talisman like the Swift Travel Talisman costs about one spirit stone per piece. Even if they are all sold, they can barely break even!

This was due to his experience in his previous life. If it were someone else, the success rate would be even lower. The effort would far outweigh the gain, and they couldn't afford it.

It's no wonder that Tan Qingxue felt that Li An's application for high-quality talisman pens and talisman paper was in vain.

"It will be slower to get familiar with it at first, but it will not be difficult to increase the success rate later..."

Li An is already quite satisfied. His current spiritual root sensitivity is good enough to be able to protect his capital from the beginning.

After doing all this, he continued to start his own "iron sand bath"!

In half a year, Li An's skin faded and regenerated countless times.

He can already enter the iron sand without feeling any pain!

He picked up a piece of iron sand and saw that the iron sand had become almost as smooth as a ball.

"The first batch of iron sand is almost used."

Li An whispered, and at the same time took a dagger next to him - not a star dagger, but an ordinary iron dagger.

He grabbed the dagger and held it tightly. There was no blood on his hand. Instead, there was a sound like metal friction in the palm of his hand. The dagger was directly pressed by his palm and curled!

"The first level of the Iron Tree Art, the 'Iron Skin' is basically finished!"

He was very satisfied!

At the same time, he looked inside and saw that the third leaf completely expanded in his dantian.

In another half year, the third level of Qi training will be completed, and then the fourth level of Qi training will be achieved!

…

The next day, Li An first went to the Weapon Refining Hall to find Wang Dazhu.

"Brother An, the silver sand you want will probably have to wait for a while...this kind of thing is too difficult to get."

Wang Dazhu's body became thicker, his skin was dark and rosy, and his energy and blood were very strong.

Moreover, he was about to break through to the fifth level of Qi Refining.

Li An entrusted Wang Dazhu to help refine spiritual silver sand, the second level of Iron Tree Art, which is needed for meat training.

"It's okay, Dazhu, how's the storage bag going?"

"Here, I asked Master Yu to refine it... I only charge the cost price, which is twenty spiritual stones."

Wang Dazhu took out a brand new storage bag and handed it to Li An.

Li An took the storage bag and checked it. He was very satisfied!

A low-level storage bag can hold items up to one meter square, which is enough for Ang Lee.

——The storage bag is more convenient to access and store items. He is now refining first-level mid-grade talismans. There are many of them, and they are easy to be found when placed on his body.

"Okay, Dazhu, thank you!"

Li An immediately took out twenty spiritual stones from the bag and handed it to Wang Dazhu. He also gave ten additional flame talismans and said: "Dazhu, please pass some of your thoughts to Master Yu for me."

Wang Dazhu grinned, "Okay, Brother An, Master Yu said, if you have any needs in the future, just tell him."

In the past two years, Li An went to the Refining Hall many times to privately buy iron sand for body refining. Every time he bought it at a low price, he would give some extra talismans to Wang Dazhu, asking him to honor his master.

So I am very popular with the master.

After all, after bypassing the sect, Li An could buy it cheaply, and Master Yu could also sell it at a good price.

There are no middlemen making the difference.

Of course, the sect explicitly prohibits this kind of thing, but in private matters, it is normal to turn a blind eye.

The main reason is that this kind of situation will not spread. Generally, only acquaintances who have established a trusting relationship dare to conduct such transactions. Small things will not affect the overall interests of Xuanyang Sect.

…

After wearing the storage bag, Li An felt much more comfortable and finally didn't have to carry a baggage everywhere.

The Starlight Dagger, several bags of spiritual rice, dozens of first-grade low-level flame talismans, earth shield talisman, cold wind talisman, and three speed talismans were all put into the storage bag.

…

After getting the storage bag, in the next few days, Li An successively purchased 300 pieces of talisman paper at the Futang Trading Office, spending as much as 12 spiritual stones!

His crazy behavior naturally attracted the attention of other people in the Futang.

But on the seventh day, when Li An, with sunken eyes and a depressed look on his face, sold the remaining thirty-one high-quality talismans at a low price, everyone laughed.

This situation is normal. There are always some disciples who overestimate their abilities and think that they are geniuses and can achieve success overnight.

But only after spending a lot of spiritual stones and energy can we recognize ourselves.

Obviously, Ang Lee is such a person.

"Have you not slept well lately?"

On this day, after the lecture, Tan Qingxue frowned and looked at Li An, "I told you a long time ago that it is too early for you to draw first-level mid-level runes now."

She also heard about Li An's situation, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and began to doubt Xu Qiuhui's original evaluation of Li An. Sister Xu was so smart, how could she misjudge the person?

Ang Lee is so eager to make advances, where is his calm demeanor?

"Senior sister is right...Li An is greedy for merit. I didn't expect this to happen."

Li An also sighed.

"Have a good rest today and go to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range early tomorrow morning!"

Tan Qingxue gave instructions, but felt a little doubtful about her decision. Maybe she shouldn't ask Li An to go with her?

…

Early next morning.

Li An got up early in the morning and went to the door to wait for the gathering.

Not long after, Tan Qingxue came over with a man and a woman.

That female disciple was Cao Zhirou, who had tutored him one-on-one when Li An first entered Futang. Li An also knew the male disciple, named Jiang You, who was also from Tan Qingxue's sect.

Tan Qingxue is very talented in Fu Dao, but her personality is relatively simple, and her skills in dealing with people are obviously not as good as Sun Lin's.

Five of the seven first-level mid-level Talisman Masters in the sect are closer to Sun Lin.

"Qingxue, Li An doesn't have to go, right?"

Seeing Li An, Jiang You frowned slightly.

He and Cao Zhirou are both at the fifth level of Qi training, and are first-level mid-level talisman masters, but what about Li An?

Third level of Qi training, first level low-grade Talisman Master...

It's too much of a drag on the team.

Li An was also eager for Tan Qingxue to agree immediately. He couldn't help but sigh, Fellow Daoist Jiang is really a good person.

Tan Qingxue had previously doubted whether it would be useful to ask Li An to go with him.

But a few days ago, she wrote a letter to Xu Qiuhui explaining her decision to go to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range to find the second-grade elixir. She only received a reply from Xu Qiuhui last night.

In the letter, Xu Qiuhui fully agreed with her call for Li An, praising her for finally growing up, becoming mature, and thinking about things...

Moreover, she also told her in the letter that if she encounters danger, she must listen to Li An's opinion... Obviously, Xu Qiuhui is still worried about her.

This made Tan Qingxue have some self-doubt.

Is there something wrong with his vision, or is Ang Lee hiding his clumsiness in front of him?

"It doesn't matter, more people have more power, let's go!"

She decided to take a closer look!

Li An: "..."

Immediately, the four people left Futang.

Leave from the outer gate and go all the way north. After passing the Beishan Gate, you will see a green mountain range.

The mountains are majestic, vast and endless.

It is said that there may even be alchemy-level strange beasts growing in this mountain range, but they are usually found very deep in the mountains, and basically no one has ever seen them.

Disciples of the Xuanyang Sect generally only practice in the outer areas, where there are usually spiritual beasts in the Qi training stage, so they are not impossible to deal with.

Following the rugged mountain road, they soon entered the dense forest. There was a faint smell of rotting leaves and bird and animal excrement in the air. As the four people passed by, hares popped out of the forest and birds flew among the treetops.

"According to the information received, someone has seen a first-level perfect black needle giant ape many times in the northwest mountains. The black needle giant ape is very spiritual and will usually grow together with the second-level elixir. After the first-level perfection, When the time comes, swallow the elixir to advance."

Tan Qingxue said: "Let's first explore several places where the black-needle giant ape has appeared."

Hearing this, Li An couldn't help but frown secretly.

The first level of perfection is equivalent to the peak of human Qi refining. This level of spiritual beast can only be dealt with by at least the foundation-building stage cultivator. Tan Qingxue has only reached the sixth level of Qi refining. Where can he get the confidence?

Could it be that she has other back-up plans?

Li An was prepared. If the situation went wrong, he would evacuate directly!

After all, although Xu Qiuhui had feelings for him, it was far from enough to make him take risks and risk his life for Tan Qingxue.

…

As they went deeper into the mountains and forests, they encountered more elixirs along the way, but most of them were of low quality and were looked down upon by several people. However, Li An did not refuse anyone who came, harvested them all, and pretended to Into storage bag.

After all, although these elixirs are not worth much, they are quite useful to Li An. They can be passed on to Zhao Xian and asked the pharmacists in the medicine hall to help make potions for body training.

Regarding this, Cao Zhirou and Jiang You both shook their heads. As expected, Li An was born in poverty and had never seen the world.

"Hey, a first-class elixir!"

But in the evening, Li An shouted in surprise beside a dead tree stump.

Tan Qingxue and others immediately surrounded him.

"The first-grade Ganoderma lucidum grows among a bunch of miscellaneous spiritual grasses." Cao Zhirou looked complicated.

"I didn't pay attention, but this guy got an advantage..." Jiang You felt a little regretful.

They saw this from a distance, but no one came over.

Only this guy Li An, who even wanted miscellaneous spiritual grass, was so lucky that he came across Ganoderma lucidum...

Ganoderma lucidum is worth about twenty spirit stones!

Li An happily put the Ganoderma lucidum into his storage bag, silently rejoicing in his heart that he had practiced the super-sensory technique.

His sense of smell, hearing, and vision are far beyond those of ordinary people, so along the way, he was able to effectively avoid some spiritual beasts and smell the elixir in advance.

"Let's rest here first and then go to Black Mulberry Forest during the day tomorrow."

Tan Qingxue opened her mouth, and the four of them immediately set up camp and used tree branches to build temporary shelters.

While busy, Tan Qingxue couldn't help but look at Li An.

Today they encountered several ferocious spiritual beasts, but Li An rarely took action, but gained the most.

Is this guy really hiding his clumsiness?

In fact, in the eyes of Cao Zhirou and Jiang You, Li An's behavior is very normal. He is the weakest, so he contributes the least in battles. As for gaining more, it is just good luck...

But because Xu Qiuhui mentioned it again and again, Tan Qingxue had a preconceived idea and couldn't help but think about it.

Moreover, with this thought, she couldn't help but think back to Li An's performance today...

The first time he encountered the tiger at the third level of Qi training, Li An was originally the one moving forward, but he suddenly stopped and allowed Cao Zhirou to meet him.

The second time, a wild boar with the fourth level of Qi training rushed out. Tan Qingxue and the other three were affected, but Li An stayed far away and did not participate in the battle.

The only time Li An took action was when he encountered two snakes at the first level of Qi Refining. The two snakes were mating at the time... Li An trampled them both to death with one kick.

She suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with Li An!

Have you actually been deceived? !

If Li An knew what she was thinking, he might be stunned. Who has the problem? ?

If you think about it from this perspective, normal people will be thought of as abnormal, right? ?

"We have to keep vigil separately, Li An, you and I will stay up until half the night!"

After the temporary shelter was set up, Tan Qingxue suddenly spoke.

Li An frowned imperceptibly. What did Tan Qingxue want to do?

In Li An's view, Tan Qingxue is far less mature than Xu Qiuhui because of her good talent in Fu Dao and has not suffered too much.

His mind is relatively simple, of course, to put it bluntly, he is stupid.

Such a fool's thoughts are sometimes hard to guess... and she can easily cause trouble.

"You are the weakest and I am the strongest. Can't we keep vigil with the weak?"

When Li An didn't answer, she asked again.

Li An: "..."

…
