Chapter 1164 Helping to Make the Elixir

Seeing that the Jade-faced Bodhisattva seemed to have misunderstood his meaning, Qingyang said: "Don't worry, Jade-faced Bodhisattva. I saw you looking troubled last time. It seems that there is some elixir that needs to be refined. After I left the Fallen Ghost Abyss, it is impossible for me to come back in a short time, so I came to see you."

After hearing Qingyang's words, the Jade-faced Bodhisattva was immediately grateful. Since she knew that Qingyang had a special relationship with the One-horned Ghost King, she had no intention of asking Qingyang for help in refining elixirs. Unexpectedly, Qingyang still remembered this matter and came to find her specially. This thought moved her.

The Jade-faced Bodhisattva was so excited that he said quickly, "Thank you, Daoist Fellow Qingyang, for remembering me. Please, come in. Daoist Fellow Qingyang is the honored guest of my Red Lotus Mountain. You must stay in my Red Lotus Mountain for a while this time so that I can show my hospitality as a host."

After that, the Jade-faced Bodhisattva and his monks led Qingyang into the Red Lotus Mountain. The Red Lotus Mountain is the dojo of the Jade-faced Bodhisattva. As one of the seven overlords of the Fallen Ghost Abyss, the scale of the Red Lotus Mountain is no smaller than that of the Wuliang Mountain. Of course, it is still incomparable to the One-horned Ghost King.

The group came to the main hall of the Red Lotus Mountain. The Jade-faced Bodhisattva wanted to host a banquet for Qingyang, but Qingyang politely declined. He was in a hurry to leave the Fallen Ghost Abyss and didn't want to spend too much time on other things. The Jade-faced Bodhisattva had no choice but to cancel the welcome banquet.

Then the Jade-faced Bodhisattva took Qingyang to the alchemy room on the Red Lotus Mountain. Everything was ready, and he handed the materials he had prepared to Qingyang. The pills that Jade-faced Bodhisattva needs to refine are among the more difficult ones in the Golden Pill level, but Qingyang's alchemy skills are outstanding. He was able to refine the extremely difficult Golden Pill when he was in the Foundation Establishment Stage, let alone now? Since breaking through the Golden Pill realm, Qingyang's divine consciousness and true essence have greatly increased, and his ability to control the temperature and identify the subtle changes of the pill has greatly increased. His alchemy skills have also greatly improved invisibly.

Jade-faced Bodhisattva originally planned to ask the Quasi-Dan Kings of the Fallen Ghost Abyss to help refine them. The success rate of Quasi-Dan Kings in refining Golden Pill-level pills is not high, and the number of materials required is also large, so Jade-faced Bodhisattva prepared six or seven copies. Even so, Jade-faced Bodhisattva felt that he was not very sure, and he hesitated to ask those Quasi-Dan Kings to refine them. Now these materials are cheap for Qingyang.

Qingyang's alchemy skills have long surpassed the level of ordinary Dan Kings. This level of pills is not difficult for him. He first familiarized himself with the recipe of Jade-faced Bodhisattva, and then tried it in Ziyun Tongxiao Ding. He started to refine it formally when he felt sure. Everything went smoothly afterwards. All six or seven materials were used up, and a total of two pills were refined. In addition to the one given to the Jade-faced Bodhisattva, he could keep one for himself. Even if he didn't need it, he could exchange it for spiritual stones in the future.

Qingyang spent only five days to refine the pills this time. When he came out of the alchemy room and handed one of the pills to the Jade-faced Bodhisattva, the other party hadn't reacted yet. The Jade-faced Bodhisattva never thought that Qingyang would get things done so quickly.

At this time, she realized that everything that Wuliang Saint said was true, and even a little conservative. Qingyang's alchemy skills were probably the best among the alchemy kings.

After completing the task of refining pills, Qingyang expressed to the Jade-faced Bodhisattva that he needed to leave the Fallen Ghost Abyss as soon as possible. Seeing that he couldn't keep him, the Jade-faced Bodhisattva could only prepare a generous gift for Qingyang, and then specially sent a Red Lotus Mountain monk to send Qingyang to the ladder.

The location of the ladder is at the edge of the Fallen Ghost Abyss, which is within the influence of the Jade-faced Bodhisattva. It is only 70,000 to 80,000 miles away from the Red Lotus Mountain. Even if Qingyang goes there by himself, it will take at most 20 days. The Jade-faced Bodhisattva sent a fifth-level Jindan cultivator to lead the way. His strength is higher than Qingyang. The two took turns to control the flying spiritual tool, and their speed was much faster than Qingyang himself. It took only 13 days to reach the destination.

The so-called ladder is just a cave dug every hundred feet on the stone wall at the edge of the Fallen Ghost Abyss. The cave is only about ten feet in diameter, but two or three feet deep. The cultivator can temporarily rest and recover in the cave, and then continue to go up when he is sure.

At the bottom of the Fallen Ghost Abyss, the function of these caves is not yet visible. The Jindan cultivator can easily rise a hundred feet by flying in the air, but as the altitude increases, the downward suction of the Fallen Ghost Abyss becomes stronger and stronger, and it is not so easy to go up. At that time, every step of the cultivator is extremely difficult. If there is a place to rest in the middle, there is nothing better than this.

According to the cultivator who sent Qingyang here, the last section of the ladder is particularly difficult to walk. Even a cultivator in the late Jindan stage may not be able to hold on and fall. Fortunately, the people who built the ladder added iron chains to that section, so that you can walk up slowly along the iron chains.

Although the cultivator who sent Qingyang here has a higher level of cultivation than Qingyang, he has always been in a subordinate position in front of Qingyang and dared not cross the line. Not to mention Qingyang's superb alchemy skills, nor the relationship between Qingyang and the One-horned Ghost King, the fact that Qingyang could kill a cultivator in the fifth level of Jindan when he was in the second level of Jindan alone can convince him.

On the way to send Qingyang here, the man told Qingyang a lot about the Fallen Ghost Abyss and many precautions when using the ladder, which made Qingyang gain a lot of knowledge. At least when encountering problems when using the ladder, he would not be helpless.

The location of the ladder is very hidden, and there are defensive formations around it, making it difficult for ordinary people to find it. The ladder is guarded by people from Honglian Mountain. There is a seventh-level Jindan cultivator with two early-stage Jindan cultivators. In addition to preventing someone from deliberately destroying the ladder, they are also responsible for collecting fees for using the ladder.

Seeing the Golden Core cultivator from Honglian Mountain personally sending people over, the people guarding the ladder knew that an important person had arrived, and they opened the formation early to wait for them. After a brief greeting, the seventh-level Golden Core cultivator introduced some issues that needed attention to Qingyang, and then sent him into the formation.

This formation is specifically used to lock the ladder. Only from here can you successfully climb the ladder, and only from here can you leave from the ladder. The people from Honglian Mountain are guarding outside, and no one can take a shortcut.

Qingyang made some preparations and was about to fly up, when he suddenly heard a whistle from the sky, and a huge strong wind hit him head-on. Qingyang thought someone was attacking him, so he was scared and quickly dodged to the side. Then he saw a black shadow falling from the sky and falling heavily to the ground.

At this time, Qingyang realized that it was not someone who attacked him, but someone who fell from the ladder. The person who fell was a middle-aged cultivator with the fifth-level Golden Core cultivation. Maybe because the middle-aged monk took some measures before landing, his injuries were not particularly serious. He mainly broke some bones and his internal organs were almost displaced. He would be able to recover in ten days or half a month at most.
