Chapter 620: No. 25 on the Hidden Dragon List

Jinpeng Island, Li family.

In a golden attic with carved railings and jade walls, a tall, thin middle-aged man was reporting the situation to an old man in green robes who was over sixty years old.

The green-robed old man has thin cheeks and is as tall as a bamboo pole. Judging from the powerful mana fluctuations he emits, he is obviously a late-stage alchemy monk.

"Yunfeng, this time was really dangerous. Fortunately, you are fine. It's a pity that your elder brother failed to survive the monster."

The old man in green robe sighed, his face full of kindness.

His name is Li Xuangang, and Li Yunfeng is his descendant.

The monks of the Li family went to Sifang Island to purchase goods. On their way back, they encountered many third-level demon birds and suffered heavy casualties. One of Li Xuangang's most valued descendants was killed.

Li Xuangang had no idea that the person standing in front of him was not Li Yunfeng at all, but Zhao Tuozi.

Zhao Tuozi's body was destroyed by a powerful enemy. Fortunately, he met a monk from the Li family. His soul came out of his body and took away the body of the monk from the Li family. Zhao Tuozi transformed into Li Yunfeng.

"Thanks to the talisman given by my grandfather, my grandson was able to survive. If my third brother hadn't protected me, I probably wouldn't have survived either."

Zhao Tuozi had a regretful expression on his face.

"You are already in the late stage of foundation building. Stop running around and practice with peace of mind. I will provide you with pill-forming spiritual objects to help you reach the core-forming stage."

Li Xuangang ordered that his lifespan was short, and it would be the best thing if Li Yunfeng could advance to the Danjie stage before he passed away.

"Yes, Grandpa."

Zhao Tuozi agreed and withdrew excitedly.

After a while, he returned to his residence with a playful expression on his face.

"Lu Yunjie, don't worry about leaving the green hills without firewood. Just wait for me. If I don't avenge this, I swear I won't be a human being."

Zhao Tuozi said to himself. His eyes were full of cold light.

It is only a matter of time before he regains his alchemy cultivation level. With his superb alchemy skills, it is not difficult for him to stand out among the many alchemy monks in the Li family.

If given the chance, he would find Lu Yunjie to vent his anger on him.

······

Time flies, four years passed quickly.

Haoran City, a certain secret room.

Han Changming sat cross-legged on the futon, staring closely at the Lingxiao furnace wrapped in rolling flames in front of him, his eyes bloodshot.

There were a large number of bottles and cans around him, but they were all empty.

Master Ling Xiao stood aside without saying a word, his eyes full of admiration.

After a while, the medicinal aroma in the room became stronger.

As soon as Han Changming withdrew his spell, the three dragon heads no longer spewed flames, and the flames that flooded the Lingxiao Furnace suddenly disappeared.

He poured a spell into the Lingxiao Furnace, and the lid of the Lingxiao Furnace flew up. When he stepped forward, he saw eighteen pale golden pills inside, and each pill had elixir patterns.

"Successful."

Han Changming was overjoyed and breathed a sigh of relief.

Master Ling Xiao provided materials and gave Han Changming careful guidance.

Han Changming's alchemy level improved rapidly. This time, he was able to refine eighteen middle-grade elixirs from one batch of elixirs. In the past, he could not refine eighteen middle-grade elixirs from one batch of elixirs. medicine.

Seeing the eighteen middle-grade elixirs in the alchemy furnace, Master Ling Xiao showed a look of relief on his face and said, "Yes, your level of alchemy is much higher now than four years ago."

"It's all thanks to the master's guidance, otherwise the disciple wouldn't have made such great progress."

Han Changming said gratefully that he was telling the truth.

At the beginning, Han Changming was still a little nervous, worried that Master Ling Xiao would spot him. However, after getting along for a long time, he found that Master Ling Xiao was concerned about his alchemy techniques and the rate of elixir production, so he relaxed.

The spiritual water and spiritual energy he took out was relatively abundant and had not reached a terrifying level, so it did not attract the attention of Master Ling Xiao.

"I'm not wrong about you. Given time, you will really surpass me and refine a top-grade fourth-level elixir."

Master Ling Xiao's face was filled with pride. The greater Han Changming's achievements, the more glory he would have in his master's face.

"Cultivation is the foundation, and you should practice well. When you reach the perfection of alchemy formation, your master will provide you with infant-formation spiritual objects. All you have to do is practice diligently. Alchemy is just an auxiliary for our pursuit of the Tao. Tools, no matter how high the level of alchemy is, it is still empty talk if the cultivation level cannot keep up."

Master Ling Xiao's face was full of concern. Han Changming was diligent and eager to learn. There wasn't much he could teach Han Changming. What he could do was provide Han Changming with infantile spiritual objects.

Han Changming bowed and said with excitement: "Master, I have no way to repay you for your great kindness."

A piece of baby-making spiritual object is worth millions of spirit stones. This kind of kindness is too heavy.

Master Ling Xiao nodded happily and said: "You call me master, this is what I should do. The greater your achievements in alchemy, the happier you will be as a master."

He gave some instructions and asked Han Changming to go back and rest.

Leaving Master Ling Xiao's residence, Han Changming appeared on the bustling street.

Haoran City is the same as before, with crowds of people on the streets.

"Friend Daoist Han, long time no see."

A somewhat familiar male voice suddenly sounded.

Han Changming looked along the source of the sound and saw Zhu Mingming.

In order to have a piece of land to develop, the Zhu family became a vassal of the Han family. Han Changming became famous, the Han family became stronger and stronger, and the Zhu family also benefited.

Zhu Mingming has advanced to the Dan-Jie stage and became the first Dan-Jie monk in the Zhu family. Zhu Zijie failed to form the Dan and failed to advance to the Dan-Jie stage.

Zhu Mingming used two pill-forming spiritual objects to attack the pill-forming stage. He was already very satisfied with the low-grade golden elixir.

"Fellow Daoist Zhu, congratulations!"

Han Changming was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted and congratulated with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Han, I want to talk to you about something. Is it convenient for you?"

Zhu Mingming said sincerely, with expectation on his face.

Han Changming is no longer what he used to be. He is the most outstanding disciple of Master Ling Xiao. He defeated all the others in the alchemy conference and ranked second, second only to Song Qingqing of Wanfa Sect.

Han Changming is now a well-known third-level alchemist in Haoran City. I don’t know how many people want to please Han Changming.

"It's convenient, friend Zhu Dao, please."

Han Changming smiled slightly and agreed.

Zhu Mingming breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on his face deepened. Lead the way.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the two appeared at the door of Haoran Tower. As soon as they entered Haoran Tower, they immediately attracted the attention of other monks.

Many monks looked at Han Changming with admiration, envy, and curiosity. Their expressions varied.

Zhu Mingming asked for a private room to drink tea and discuss Taoism with Han Changming.

After chatting for a while, Zhu Mingming took out an exquisite golden jade box, pushed it in front of Han Changming, and said, "Fellow Daoist Han, this is a talisman pen that our Zhu family got from an underground auction. See if you like it."

After Zhu Mingming entered the pill-forming stage, the Zhu family prospered. In the outer sea, a pill-forming monk was simply not enough. If the Zhu family wanted to obtain the pill-forming spiritual objects, they could only participate in the auction, but the competition was fierce.

The number of alchemy-forming monks in the Han family continues to increase, and Han Changming is proficient in alchemy. Needless to say, the Han family must have alchemy-forming spiritual objects.

Zhu Mingming wanted to exchange pill-forming spiritual objects with the Han family. The pill-forming spiritual objects refined by Han Changming were undoubtedly more reassuring.

"talisman pen!"

With a thought in mind, Han Changming opened the golden jade box, and a burst of soft blue light flew out.

The blue light dissipated, revealing a completely blue jade pen. The pen barrel was about a foot long, with two small characters "Liu Li" engraved on it. The bristles were light blue. This was a low-grade magic weapon.

Ye Xue is a talisman maker. If she had this glazed pen, her level of talisman making would improve faster.

"No reward for no merit, Fellow Daoist Zhu, whatever you want, just say it."

Han Changming said in a gentle tone, in fact, with his current status and level of alchemy, getting a magic weapon-level talisman pen is not a problem.

Zhu Mingming turned over and took out a light red jade box and handed it to Han Changming.

Han Changming opened the jade box. Inside were two red demon pills. He recognized them at a glance. They were two third-level demon pills.

"I would like to exchange for a pill-forming spiritual object. What do you think, Friend Daoist Han?"

Zhu Mingming said sincerely that the value of what he took out was higher than a pill-forming spiritual object, but he knew very well that Han Changming might not agree to the exchange, and the initiative rested with Han Changming.

With Han Changming's current identity and status, he does not lack more than 100,000 spirit stones.

For the same elixir, whether it was one refined by Han Changming himself or available on the market, he would definitely choose the elixir refined by Han Changming.

"No problem, you will be at a huge disadvantage in this exchange, so let's do this! You give me some third-level animal skins or other things, and I will give you two pill-forming spiritual items. After all, we are in-laws, so we should help."

Han Changming said with a smile, Han Benxian married a child of the Zhu family, and the Zhu family and the Han family were related by marriage.

The right way can help many people, but the wrong way can help little. Since the two families are in-laws, Han Changming doesn't mind helping the Zhu family. After all, the Han family has not suffered a loss.

Zhu Mingming's eyes widened and he agreed. The focus of this exchange was not on the elixir-forming spiritual object, but on Han Changming's attitude.

He wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to the Han family.

Han Changming smiled slightly and said: "Two months later, you go to Qinghu Island, and I will personally give you the elixir-forming spiritual object."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Han. I'll give you a toast with tea instead of wine."

Zhu Mingming picked up the tea cup and toasted Han Changming.

Han Changming didn't show any airs and responded quickly.

"Fellow Daoist Han, you are famous now. Your fame has almost spread to the inner sea."

Zhu Mingming said in an envious tone.

"Famous? What do you mean? I've been refining alchemy for the past few years and I don't know what's going on outside."

Han Changming was confused.

"No wonder, you are now ranked twenty-fifth on the Hidden Dragon List. Congratulations!"

Zhu Mingming's tone was warm, and the alchemy monks who could be ranked on the Hidden Dragon List had a high chance of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.

In a certain aspect, being able to be selected into the Hidden Dragon List as a pill-forming monk means gaining recognition from the majority of monks.

"Isn't the twenty-fifth one on the Hidden Dragon List the Jinzhu layman? Even if something happens to him or he is promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, Haoyue Sanren should take his place!"

Han Changming was slightly startled. Master Jinzhu was a casual cultivator with extraordinary strength.

"He went to the Burial Immortal Market to hunt for treasures. He was seriously injured and died. Two years ago, his Zaihua Cave was discovered. In order to fight for the treasure, the gang fought to the death. Later it was confirmed that it was the Zuihua Cave of Jinzhu layman. I heard They say there is a map of the Immortal Burial Ruins, but I don’t know who it belongs to.”

Zhu Mingming explained.

Generally speaking, after the death of layman Jinzhu, the monks behind him will move up one rank. However, there are exceptions. Han Changming ranked twenty-fifth because of his superb alchemy level and being a disciple of Master Ling Xiao.

Han Changming had a look of realization on his face. To be honest, he didn't care about his ranking on the Hidden Dragon List, it was just a false name.

As a casual cultivator, Jinzhu layman ranked twenty-fifth on the Hidden Dragon Ranking. He was certainly not weak in strength. Unexpectedly, he did not get any advantage in the Immortal Burial Ruins. The name Burial Immortals Ruins was correct.

After chatting for a few words, Han Changming said goodbye and left.

Less than half an hour later, Han Changming stood at the door of a magnificent palace, frowning slightly.

A square plaque of lacquered gold hangs above the palace gate, with three large silver characters "Golden Calvary Palace" written on it. It is sparkling and very conspicuous.

Han Changming suspected that he had come to the wrong place. Has Jinhu Pavilion turned into Jinhu Palace?

"Dad, why are you here?"

A familiar female voice suddenly sounded.

Han Changming followed the sound and saw Liu Weiwei walking towards him.

"Dad, thanks to your blessing, our family's elixirs are very popular, so I will expand the store and change the Jinhu Pavilion into Jinhu Palace."

Liu Weiwei explained that after the news of Han Changming's second place in the alchemy competition spread, the elixirs sold by the Han family became more and more popular. Liu Weiwei seized the opportunity and expanded the store, mainly selling elixirs, but also puppet beasts and formations. Law.

Pills are now one of the important sources of income for the Han family, and the puppet beast is second.

Han Changming nodded, and under the leadership of Liu Weiwei, Han Changming walked into the Golden Gourd Palace.

The floor of the Golden Calvary Palace is paved with blue stone tiles. The main hall is spacious and bright. Behind the long blue counter are rows of tall shelves. There are a large number of porcelain bottles on the shelves. Dozens of monks are buying elixirs. Most of the medicine comes from Qi Refining monks.

"I want two bottles of Qi Refining Pills."

"I want three bottles of Qi Accumulating Pills."

"Bring me two bottles of Huangyadan."

······

Han Changming saw a look of joy on his face when he saw the monks crowding in front of the counter to buy elixirs.

The better the family develops, the happier he is.

"Senior Han is here."

I don't know who shouted, and many monks looked at Han Changming with excited expressions.

Han Changming didn't say anything and strode upstairs.

The layout on the second floor is elegant, with some landscape paintings hanging on the walls and many porcelain bottles on the shelves. Most of the guests on the second floor are foundation-building monks.

The third floor mainly sells puppet beasts and also purchases various immortal cultivation resources.

Han Changming came to the fifth floor, and Han Benfu was talking to Han Benzhi.

"Dad, you are out of seclusion."

When Han Benfu saw Han Changming, she smiled lightly, showing two dimples on her face.

After the expansion of Jinhu Pavilion, Han Benfu took up the important task of refining third-level elixirs.

Han Benzhi was already in the late stage of foundation building. When he saw Han Changming, he stood up quickly.

"Yes, we have entered the late stage of foundation building."

Han Changming's eyes fell on Han Benzhi and he praised.

Han Benzhi smiled naively and said, "I will practice harder."

He was able to advance to the later stage of foundation building only by relying on pills. He was really not that material.
