Chapter 33: The King of Qin's Bone Mirror

The fire of the elixir was strong, and the real fire was blazing.

The flame melted the lead in the elixir furnace, and Xu Xuan stared at the fire, motionless.

This was not refining medicine, but refining materials.

Since he got the elixir refining method of Longhu Mountain, Xu Xuan found that the elixir could be refined in stages.

For example, the lead in the elixir could be refined into purple lead for storage in advance, and the gold could be refined into golden buds in advance.

The advantage of this is that no matter what elixir is refined, half of the work is done in advance.

After refining the elixir, Xu Xuan picked up a charred wooden stick and studied it.

There is a spell called Fu Pai in Longhu Mountain.

Fu Pai is equivalent to talisman paper that can be used many times, and it requires lightning wood. There is lightning wood here, and there were many such things in the warehouse of King Ji at that time.

"It's a pity that one thing is missing." Xu Xuan thought.

The missing thing is the blood of the spirit beast.

This world does not have even a little spiritual energy, where does the spirit beast come from, but there may be another place.

Xu Xuan took out a mirror, and the mirror corresponded to the scene of the other world.

Hong Family.

Half a year has passed in the real world, and five years have passed in the mirror world.

Hong Yi's yard is no longer simple, but has expanded several times.

In the center of the yard, Hong Yi sat cross-legged on the futon, and a faint white mist lingered around him as he breathed in and out.

After a long time, Hong Yi opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath.

"It's the middle stage of nourishing qi."

After five years of practice, he finally entered the middle stage.

Then he came to another room, and the charming maid prepared a hearty breakfast.

After breakfast, Hong Yi walked out of the yard.

"Hello, young master!"

"Good luck to young master!"

On the way, the servants greeted him one after another, and their attitudes were completely different from five years ago.

There are many rules in the rich family. As long as they are not descendants of independent branches, they must greet their parents in the morning.

Of course, Hong Yi can be late.

When he came to the hall, most of the children of the Hong family had already greeted him. Seeing Hong Yi coming, some of them looked at him with jealousy.

Hong Yi ignored all these.

In the hall, a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance sat in the main seat. When he saw Hong Yi coming, he showed a gentle smile on his face.

"You are here?"

"Yes, father, I just finished practicing."

Hong Shi thought for a while and said, "You don't have to come here every day in the future."

Then he pointed to the box on the table and said, "There are five low-grade spirit stones there. I exchanged them with the mysterious man for ten kilograms of cinnabar. You will handle the affairs of Wanxiang Building in the future. I am not good at dealing with these people. It's time to hand over the industry to you."

Wanxiang Building is the department store in Xu Xuan's cognition. Because it is relatively large, it is very famous in the local area.

"Thank you, father!" Hong Yi did not refuse.

He never played the game of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. After practicing true qi four years ago, he immediately found Hong Shi and explained his situation.

Hong Shi was indeed not a fool. He was overjoyed when he heard it. He immediately threw away the legitimate and illegitimate children and ignored his beloved children.

The cultivators in this world are high and low. When they reach Hong Shi's level, they naturally know that there are immortal cultivators in the world, and the difference between immortals and mortals is huge.

Trapped by the bones and skills, mortals can't touch the threshold even if they try their best.

Now that the family has a cultivator, and it's their own child, they would be a fool not to pay attention to it.

This is an opportunity for their family to move to the next level!

So Hong Shi did his best to cultivate him. As for the origin of Hong Yi's skills, Hong Shi ignored it tacitly.

Then Hong Yi returned to the house and exchanged five spirit stones for the Qingjing Jue and a part of Chenzhou Fufa and Jiama Fu.

Immediately afterwards, two tasks appeared in front of the mirror.

One is to exchange half a liter of spirit beast blood for a Jinsha Peiyuan Pill, with no upper limit.

The second is the secret method of driving corpses, which can be exchanged for five spirit stones.

If Li Qingshi were here, he would definitely shout why the price was raised so high? In the past, it could be exchanged with spirit crystals or a low-grade spirit stone.

Actually, Xu Xuan saw that Hong Yi had good talent and a high starting platform, so he raised the price.

"Corpse-driving technique?" Hong Yi's eyes lit up. This technique sounds evil, but it is really practical.

His family also has financial resources and enough resources to raise corpses.

"Mirror Fairy, I have 1,000 taels of gold. Exchange it for 200 taels of cinnabar."

Hong Yi brought a heavy box.

Put it in front of the mirror.

The mirror glowed, and the box disappeared. Half a minute later, piles of red cinnabar appeared in front of the mirror.

"Got it!"

Hong Yi said happily.

The cinnabar that the mirror traded with him was the source of his spirit stones.

Only cinnabar can be traded for spirit stones from immortal cultivators.

Next, Hong Yi planned to trade himself. After all, his father was a mortal. Some arrogant cultivators would immediately rob him when they saw that he was a mortal.

"But now my strength is low, I can't be the shopkeeper. I will start from the counter and specialize in the monks' business. This way, when people see me, they will think there is a stronger person behind me."

Hong Yi muttered to himself and thought of a wonderful idea.

In front of the mirror, Xu Xuan smiled and said, "This kid is quite smart."

Watching Hong Yi's growth, it was as if watching a TV series with a strong sense of substitution.

"Originally, he was my junior, younger than me. In a few years, he will be older than me. In a few decades, he will be like an ancestor."

The time flow rate of the two worlds is different, which seems a bit impermanent.

Xu Xuan's perspective seems to be that of a god, watching the rise and fall of generations.

These people worship him, covet him, and fear him. But who knows that the person in front of the mirror is just a dead fall in the world without magic?

Looking at the five thumb-sized crystals on the table, Xu Xuan was relieved and said, "After several years, I finally have some income. I have 103 spirit stones in my pocket, and I finally return to three digits."

"By the way!" Xu Xuan put away the mirror and suddenly thought of something. According to the course of history, the Ming Dynasty will fall this year, which is the time when Chongzhen hanged himself on the crooked tree.

So he called Li Jianxing and Zhang Duxiao to come over.

The two went upstairs. Zhang Duxiao looked much better since he took Xiaoqinglong Powder.

"I have something to trouble you two. I observed the stars last night and saw that the imperial star was swaying. I am afraid that the Ming Dynasty will fall this year."

"What?"

"The Great Ming..."

The two were very shocked. How could the Ming Dynasty fall? The Tang Dynasty's vassal states had been in chaos for many years, and they could still hold on for so long. The Ming Dynasty fell too easily.

"I need you to go to the north and trade secrets with fellow Taoists in the north, and then go to the palace to see Chongzhen. If he is willing to take out the royal secrets, especially the secrets from the Jiajing period, he can save his life."

Xu Xuan pushed out a box full of gold and a stack of talisman paper, saying, "Keep these for your use."

"Yes!"

The two took on the task.

The endless supply of gold in recent years and the thousand kilograms of rice grown in Huguang have made the Baidi Sect have many believers.

In troubled times, there will be evil spirits. The Baidi Sect has squeezed the living space of many chaotic sects.

Yuezhou, a mansion.

Prayer flags were hung high in the mansion, and the sound of chanting came from the largest hall.

Most of the people in the hall were wearing white robes and lotus crowns. The closer they were to the front, the more exquisite the patterns on their clothes.

The smoke of mugwort curled and condensed.

A delicate-looking woman sat on the lotus platform, holding a bronze mirror and a flower in her left hand. Believers from all directions cheered and bowed.

"Mother of No Birth, the hometown of the vacuum!"

Yes, this is the White Lotus Sect.

Soon, a sick believer came up, and the saint pointed out the lesion and gave him talisman water, and the man's complexion immediately improved a lot.

The magical scene greatly increased the fanaticism of the believers.

After most of the believers left, only a group of high-level people were left.

"Why are there fewer people?" The White Lotus Saint offered the mirror on the altar and asked.

"Reply to the Saint, they all believe in the White Emperor Religion. The White Emperor Religion originated from Huguang, and it is said that its founder Xu Tianshi is a master who can perform magic."

"Nonsense! The only true immortal in the world is the White Lotus, where did the White Emperor Religion come from? How dare they play tricks?" The Saint raised her eyebrows and scolded.

"Saint, calm down!"

The high-ranking officials knelt down in fear.

The Saint stared at the mirror intently, with a dangerous light flashing in her eyes, and said, "I want to see what they can do!"

The internal organs, bones, and blood vessels of the people in the mirror were clearly visible.

Every generation of Saints is not a cultivator, because this world has no spiritual energy. But they can see the true image of the mirror, and can see the internal organs of human bones, so their medical skills and martial arts are particularly high, which can be called the best in the world. In addition to the tricks of applying talismans and water, the White Lotus Religion has expanded.

This is a rare treasure from the pre-Qin period, the sacred object of the White Lotus Religion - the Qin King's Bone Mirror.
