Chapter 729: Searching for Earth Fire
For a year and a half, Li Yan kept looking for a place where he could refine his natal magic weapon. In fact, he was looking for a suitable fire.
After actually searching, Li Yan discovered that it was not as easy as he imagined.
Since he entered the path of immortality, apart from being deceived by Master Ji and almost dying, everything has been smooth sailing in the Sprite Sect since then, and he has never considered the problem of fire when refining magic weapons.
Laojun Peak has several veins of earth-fire minerals of different levels. The best vein of earth-fire minerals was captured by a god-forming ancestor of the Sprite Sect who personally cast spells from a foreign land.
The grade is even comparable to that of the lower-ranked Heaven and Earth Fire, which is completely enough for Li Yan.
He is not a master of alchemy and weapon making. He only needs to refine the magic weapon for the foundation period, so even if the heaven and earth fire is given to him, it may be difficult for him to control it.
Li Yan's refining of the natal magic weapon focuses on the training method and the material itself. It is a growth-type magic weapon, and more importantly, it relies on the nourishment of Li Yan's acquired spiritual power.
But even so, not all fire can be refined.
In the Demon World, Li Yan only needed to spend a lot of spiritual stones and sect contribution points to use different levels of earth fire, but in the Demon World, he couldn't get it even after searching for a long time.
The world of cultivating immortals in the demon world has also completely divided up the existing earth and fire mountains. Very few individuals own it because you do not have the ability to hold on to such a large resource. ??
Once the sect obtains it, it will often guard it firmly.
Although this kind of fire vein between heaven and earth can continue to breed, the growth rate is not very fast. If it is used without restraint, a fire mineral vein will soon be exhausted.
Therefore, after each sect has gone to great lengths to obtain a vein of earth and fire minerals, it will try its best to only supply it to its own sect and will not lend it to others.
Even for the disciples of his own sect, there will be certain usage restrictions. For example, restrictions on the number of openings in a month, etc.
This is incomparable with monsters. After all, behemoths like the four major sects of the Desolate Moon Continent have more than one vein of earth and fire in their hands, and the veins of different levels can be used alternately.
In his constant inquiries, Li Yan even heard about the existence of three strange fire mineral veins. One was in the "Holy Demon Palace", one was firmly controlled by the "Black Demon Clan", and the other was in the powerful Fire Linlong Lizard Clan. Inside.
The strange fire has given birth to its own consciousness. It is the emperor of fire and can burn almost all things.
Not to mention that Li Yan couldn't even touch any of these three places, even if he could touch them, with his foundation-building skills, maybe a spark from the alien fire would have touched his body, and he would have immediately turned into a handful of flying ashes and dissipated.
Li Yan's ultimate goal was to find out about each sect that had veins of earth and fire, and he had to find ways to sneak into that sect.
Although the underground fire mineral veins are equally rare, there are still many more compared to the abnormal fire mineral veins, and the grades are also uneven.
The "Luo Xing Valley" sect owns an earth-fire mineral vein that is considered to be of average quality.
It is said that "Falling Star Valley" can refine fifth-grade elixirs, and the contribution of this earth-fire mineral vein is indispensable.
What is particularly critical is that there are not many human sects cultivating immortals on the Lost Continent. The most important ones are two first-rate sects, the "Burning Sky Sect" and the "Guiyi Sect".
They also have a good mine of earth and fire, but Li Yan doesn't dare to go there. The conditions for becoming a member of a first-class sect are very strict.
Due to the numerous races in the Lost Continent, the "Burning Sky Sect" and the "Guiyi Sect" are very strict about the identity of their disciples.
The first-class sects were all owned by Nascent Soul cultivators. Li Yan didn't want to reveal his origins, and he couldn't tell clearly.
Because he didn't know what a monk from the Desolate Moon Continent meant here, and whether it would bring him endless trouble or even death.
Although the white demons seemed to treat human monks very well, Li Yan had had a life-and-death battle with the "black demons".
After all, the two races have the same roots.
Although Li Yan didn't think that his level of cultivation could make the demons covet her, Zhao Min was still here, and her identity was still quite sensitive.
It can directly threaten the master of the first peak of the Demon Sect and the Wei Immortal Cultivation Family with Yuanying monks.
What would be the consequences if Zhao Min's identity was exposed because of him? Li Yan couldn't guarantee that nothing would happen. It was possible that Zhao Min was exchanged for it by the Black Demon Clan and threatened Master and the others.
In addition, in addition to the human race's cultivating immortal sects, Li Yan's attempt to blend into the immortal cultivating sects of other races is even more dangerous. As long as he is discovered, he should be killed immediately.
"Falling Star Valley" eventually became Li Yan's goal. He came here more than a year ago.
After constantly collecting all kinds of information about "Luo Xing Valley", I finally formulated a plan to join the sect.
The disciples of "Luo Xing Valley" mainly come from the surrounding small sects and immortal cultivating families.
In addition, there are mortals who have the qualifications to cultivate immortals, and of course there are some casual cultivators from the human race.
Once among those mortals, it is tested that their heirs have the qualifications to cultivate immortality, they will usually take the initiative to send them to "Falling Star Valley".
But there are also those who cannot let go of their family ties and keep them by their side. The human race is not a demon race, and there is no such thing as forced cultivation of immortality. It is more about the so-called "immortal fate". Once the fate comes, it will be a matter of course.
Even those mortals who cannot let go of their family ties are different from the mortals in Desolate Moon Continent and have wider knowledge.
After staying together for some years, when the children grow up, they usually give them away. After all, everyone wants their children to be immortal and have supernatural powers.
Those casual cultivators who invested in the later period, "Falling Star Valley"
The conditions are much more stringent. Not only do they require higher qualifications, but they also conduct a long-term secret inspection.
The sect's important skills or resources may not be invested in it for several years, or even ten years.
For Li Yan, these two identities are unable or unwilling to be used.
Therefore, in the end, he chose the third method. Every year in early summer, there would be an opportunity for the small sects and aristocratic families that were attached to recommend elite disciples to join the "Falling Star Valley".
These small sects and families can recommend their disciples and branches to enter "Luo Xing Valley" in order to obtain more cultivation resources and further develop a closer relationship with "Luo Xing Valley".
No matter which method is used to enter the "Falling Star Valley", the condition is that the person has at least four lines of mysterious spiritual roots. People with mixed spiritual roots like Li Yan have no chance of entering.
The third way to worship the disciples of "Falling Star Valley" is in the Qi Condensation stage.
If the foundation building is successful, it will become a mainstay for a small sect and family, and it will be difficult to leave.
After Li Yan inquired about everything, he asked the Snow Mosquito King to transform into a foundation-building monk one day and took him to a small family that he had inquired about in advance.
The Snow Mosquito King found a reason why he had to go out, but once he left, he narrowly escaped death, so he needed to keep Li Yan as his "disciple". ??
After spending a large amount of spiritual stones, the small family finally agreed, making Li Yan a descendant of a descendant who had left the country early and returned.
It is not unusual for a monk to go out for training and not return for many years.
Now it is reasonable for his descendants to return to the family.
After doing all this, the foundation-building monk transformed into the Snow Mosquito King "decisively" floated away, leaving behind Li Yan, who only had the fourth level of cultivation at the Qi Condensation stage and took the alias Zhang Ming.
Of course, this family agreed verbally, but they did not send Li Yan to "Falling Star Valley" at the beginning of last summer.
Instead, he kept Li Yan in the clan for observation for another year before sending him out.
According to Li Yan's scheming, he is originally from the human race, and he is not afraid of any kind of detection by the other party.
As for other matters, in fact, if Li Yan has any evil plans, he won't be able to find out within a year. What the family is most worried about is the alien race.
Li Yan was thinking about what was on his mind, and had no interest in paying attention to the five people around him. After giving the stout boy a perfunctory sentence, he fell silent again.
These five people come from different small sects and families, and they are all leaders of the younger generation in their sect.
Their cultivation levels range from the second to the sixth level of the Qi Condensation stage. On the other hand, considering Li Yan's age, his cultivation qualifications are very average.
But that's why Li Yan didn't transform himself to make himself smaller. As long as he could be the most inconspicuous and have comparable conditions in all aspects, he would be able to enter the "Luo Xing Valley" sect.
r> The less attention you draw to others, the better it will be for them in the future.
Previously, the monks sent by various families were blocked outside the "Falling Star Valley" when they arrived, and they were asked to enter the valley alone.
Li Yan couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, thinking about the cold face of the family monk who sent him here.
The other party ignored him all the way, and only said something when he was about to enter the valley.
"If you can't get into the Fallen Star Valley in the end, then please do it yourself in the future."
This is to tell Li Yan that the deal between them is over, and he can't enter the "Falling Star Valley", so he can come there and go back there.
Among the six people, the stout young man and the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl had the highest cultivation levels, both at the fifth level of Qi Condensation, followed by Li Yan, and the remaining three were at the second to third level of Qi Condensation.
It's just that the remaining people are only twelve or thirteen years old, but they look much younger than Li Yan.
After walking for about a stick of incense, they finally arrived at a mountain gate. The mountain gate stood tall and impressive, with three simple seal characters "Luo Xing Gu" written on it.
At this time, there was a slight sweat on the foreheads of several people. Of course, Li Yan was forced out deliberately, but he still fell behind everyone silently.
At this time, a young man in green robe was standing in front of the mountain gate, looking at the six people in front of him with a smile.
Li Yan didn't need to deliberately release his spiritual consciousness at all. He could already sense the opponent's cultivation level. He was at the ninth level of the Qi Condensation Stage. He was already considered a strong one among the Qi Condensation Stage monks.
"Everyone who has arrived here in Yi Zhu Xiang has a very solid foundation. I, Feng Qiyuan, may be your senior brother in the future.
Thinking about it, the family has already explained everything clearly before you came, but you still have to follow the rules here.
Haha, please take a look at the things that can show your identity first, and then take the spiritual root test. I will basically pass it. "
Although Feng Qiyuan's words were calm and his expression was extremely gentle, the aura on his body did not restrain. Instead, he released the aura of the ninth level of Qi Condensation.
As soon as this powerful breath came out, the six people below were forced to breathe hard, and their faces were all pale. The youngest girl even had a bright light in her eyes.
But everyone had been warned when they came, and they still took out the tokens or other tokens one by one under the fear in their hearts.
Li Yan also said nothing, and took out a small green jade in his "rapid breathing", and several people raised their hands.
Feng Qiyuan did not take it, but after a spiritual sense, the pressure on his body was instantly reduced.
Then he nodded to several people.
"Well, there is no difference with the family reported a few days ago, so the next step is much simpler. You all step forward one by one, and each person puts his palm on this thing and stimulates the spiritual power in the body."
