Chapter 352 Something Went Wrong
The sky in the north gets darker earlier than in the south, and the same goes for dusk.
What came and went quickly gave way to night. Because the white snow does not like the sun and the sky hates the dusk.
So soon the sky turned dark.
It’s just that the length of the night is not as long as my thoughts
Xu Qing stood in front of the camp tent and stared into the dark night in the direction of Nanhuang Continent.
This place is too far away from Nanhuang Continent.
"I wonder what happened to Chen Feiyuan and how Tingyu is now. They will not lack worship at the teacher's grave." Xu Qing murmured and walked into the tent of the residence.
After sitting down cross-legged, he sighed and closed his eyes.
After a long time, the turmoil in his mind calmed down, and then he took out the small clay bottle.
"I hope it can be useful." Xu Qing put the clay bottle aside, took out the black iron stick that had been with him for many years, and gently stroked it with his right hand.
He knows every bit of the sharpness of this iron sign and masters every detail.
A teacher in the slum once said that the older a person gets, the more he misses the past. Xu Qing thinks this is not absolute because he is not old, but he is also nostalgic.
No matter it is an old person or an old thing, he will never forget it if it has helped him.
With this emotion, Xu Qing lowered his head and opened the small clay bottle. He put the black iron stick in along the mouth of the bottle and even more senses melted into the iron stick to feel the changes inside.
Soon Xu Qing felt a trace of golden mist emanating from the small clay bottle.
The mist swayed and penetrated along the black iron stick, but more often than not it wandered around the iron stick, wrapping around in circles and slowly nourishing it.
This process lasted for a long night, until all the golden mist wrapped around the iron sign dissipated when the sky outside became bright.
They are all integrated into the iron sign.
Xu Qing took out the iron pick and held it in front of his eyes, carefully observing every inch until it was completely explored. Xu Qing's expression showed a happy smile.
Most of the cracks that once appeared on the black iron signature were repaired overnight. The most important thing is that the material itself seems to be a little different from before.
It seems to have been refined again.
The ancestor of the Vajra Sect has more say in this point, so when Xu Qing summoned him, the ancestor of the Vajra Sect saw this scene and felt the final decision with great seriousness.
"Master, I can feel that the material of the iron sign is changing. Just like a monk is promoted, it is also promoted. If it continues like this, it will undergo transformation from a heavy treasure to a magical weapon. Because it has been blessed by me, once it becomes a magical weapon, its power is more powerful than a spiritual weapon. Not bad at all!
It can even be said that it is a spiritual weapon, but it needs more nourishment."
Xu Qing nodded with thoughts on his face.
The price of Gengjin Qi in the previous chapter is very expensive, but it can be purchased, which is naturally the easiest way to obtain it. However, Xu Qing feels that the quantity sold outside should not be very large.
"Let's look for it first. In addition, I'm going to go to Taichu Liyouzhu in the near future to see if I can get this kind of Gengjin Qi inside."
Xu Qing made up his mind, carefully put away the iron sign, closed his eyes and meditated.
Soon the sky was bright and Xu Qing opened his eyes and walked out to search for the Geng Jin Qi in the whole city.
It was indeed as he judged that this strange aura from Taichu Li Youzhu was not for sale, but the quantity was indeed very small. Xu Qing searched for a day and only collected three more wisps.
According to his analysis, he would need at least thirty strands to complete the promotion of the Black Iron Sign.
With this thought in mind, as dusk approached, Xu Qing saw the Taoist altar again on his way to the station, saw the cross-legged old man on it, and heard the Tao of vegetation from his mouth.
"Night Corpse Morning Glory, also known as Poisonous Mountain Root Vernonia, is the cane and root of the Asteraceae plant Vernonia tenuifolia. The woody vine grows in Corpse Yin ravines, shady cold streams or in the jungle.
The vicissitudes of the voice echoed in all directions, but the number of casual cultivators outside the Taoist altar was less than yesterday, with only a dozen or so today.
Xu Qing listened for a while and left silently. This time before leaving, he paid a spiritual stone.
In this way, time passed quickly and half a month passed.
In the past half month, more and more disciples from various human sects have come to Taichu Liyou Pillar, making Taichu City more lively, and there are also many more monks climbing Taichu Liyou Pillar.
But the first one is still Li Ziliang from Taisi Xianmen. His height has reached almost 800 feet, and it seems to be more difficult the higher he goes up.
During this period, this person also challenged Xu Qing, who sent three letters of challenge to the alliance.
Xu Qing ignored that during this period, except for the occasional purchase of Gengjin aura, he spent most of his time at the Taoist altar. It had become a habit for him to stop when he returned every day.
Until he heard the old man starting to explain the method of alchemy, he simply sat by the altar and listened.
At that time, Master Bai only taught him the art of alchemy from plants and trees. Xu Qing later gradually explored and learned by himself.
Although he had some achievements, overall Xu Qing was still lacking in alchemy, so he listened very seriously. These days, with a calmness, Xu Qing often felt a little dazed, as if he had returned to the scavenger camp.
At the same time, he also felt that the unattractive old man had extremely high attainments in alchemy, because many key points would often make Xu Qing feel suddenly enlightened by the other person's words.
"The method of transforming the two poles of yin and yang is actually just one of them. The path of alchemy is vast and profound. So far, the human race has more than 6,000 alchemy techniques."
"I don't recommend teaching these alchemy techniques because they are just external methods, so at most they only teach the transformation of yin and yang. Therefore, the method is more of an application of vegetation than refining."
"You must remember that there are thousands of roads that lead to the same path."
"So the basics of alchemy are the most important, and you need to figure out the appropriate technique yourself. After all, the simplest mixture can be equally effective."
"In my opinion, the so-called refining is actually just a way to better stimulate and blend the medicinal effects of herbs."
"Although these methods are alchemy techniques, I hope that the human monks who listen to my alchemy methods can understand the essence and achieve future achievements."
Xu Qing looked dazed as he listened to all this, as if the old man in front of him had become Master Bai.
He instinctively sat upright and instinctively remembered all this. At the same time, during this study, he gradually felt that he had a clearer understanding of alchemy and vegetation.
My own attainments in alchemy of plants and trees have been significantly improved and I have a system to support it.
His foundation was built extremely solidly by Master Bai.
Subsequent self-study gradually became chaotic. He relied on his previous foundation and concentration on the poison path to barely maintain his alchemy system from collapsing.
And this time's study was like eliminating the bad and retaining the good, which made Xu Qing gradually have a direction in Alchemy.
According to what Qi Ye said when he took Xu Qing to Ghost Emperor Mountain, Xu Qing once again had a "god" in his heart that illuminated the direction of his alchemy path.
This made Xu Qing very happy. He had not been so happy for a long time.
The growth of knowledge gave him a very fulfilling feeling. However, accidents always appeared unexpectedly, interrupting Xu Qing's study.
There was something he needed to deal with.
The cause of the matter was some minor conflicts. The Eight Sects Alliance Xuanyou Sect and Qixuetong each had several disciples who had conflicts with Taisi Xianmen. In fact, this had something to do with Xu Qing.
During this period, he repeatedly ignored Taisi Xianmen Li Ziliang's challenges, causing a lot of rumors. These remarks naturally made the disciples of the Eight Sects Alliance feel uncomfortable.
Therefore, the occurrence of friction is difficult to avoid.
This time, several disciples of Xuanyou Sect and Qixuetong were detained by Li Ziliang of Taisi Xianmen during the friction between them and they were very cruel.
He also informed the Eight Sects Alliance to name Xu Qing to make amends and lead the charge.
This is obviously to force Xu Qing to fight with him.
This matter also spread quickly, making most of the disciples of various sects here in Taichu Liyouzhu aware of it, and they all paid attention to it with the mentality of watching the excitement.
After all, Xu Qing's refusal to accept the challenge before was seen by people who didn't know Xu Qing as a cowardly behavior to avoid fighting. But now that Li Ziliang is doing this, they want to see if Xu Qing will continue to avoid it.
"It's a bit annoying." Xu Qing frowned when he found out about this. Naturally, what he was annoyed about was not the disciples of the alliance but Li Ziliang of Taisi Xianmen.
Xu Qing could clearly see the opponent's intention to use him to establish his power and attract the sword holder's attention.
This idea cannot be wrong, but to detain and force a fight to achieve the goal is a bit excessive, and once the matter is over, it means an abnormality.
Xu Qing will think deeply about abnormal things.
For example, does the opponent's multiple challenges have other purposes?
But no matter what the purpose, the opponent seemed not ready, so he just forced himself to accept the challenge instead of a life and death battle. This made Xu Qing feel that the opponent most likely wanted to test his strength.
Whether it's a slum, a scavenger camp, or the methods of dealing with things he learned in his sect, Xu Qing has only one way to deal with such a situation.
That is to kill the opponent the first time without giving the opponent a second chance to take action.
What he dislikes the most is that he can't kill after the fight. After all, analysis shows that there is a high probability that the opponent's malicious elements exist. In this case, hatred will definitely be formed.
If the other party can continue to grow, Xu Qing will feel that it is a hidden danger.
So Xu Qing took out the jade slips and sent a message to the ancestor to inquire.
"Ancestor Taichu Li Youzhu is not allowed to kill people. Does this range refer to the entire territory or this city?"
After a while, the ancestor responded quietly.
"You kid, forget about it and you can take care of it."
Xu Qing nodded and clasped his fists at the old man who was talking about plants and trees outside the Taoist altar. He knew that the other person would not pay attention because during this time, the old man only talked about it without asking or paying attention to anyone below.
But Xu Qing attaches great importance to etiquette. After bowing at this moment, his body swayed straight into the sky as fast as thunder, and he reached the outside of the city and stood in the air, making a faint sound.
"Will you accept Li Ziliang's life-and-death battle?" As soon as the voice came out, the disciples of all the sects in Taichu City were in an uproar.
