Chapter 249 Repairing the Medicine Cauldron

A medicine refining cauldron that can be used by a foundation-building monk is naturally quite impressive.

As soon as Taoist Qingyang took it out, Li Qing confirmed that the grade of this medicine refining cauldron was equivalent to a high-grade magic weapon.

Even though the material of this alchemy cauldron seems to be ordinary brass, it is definitely not the case. As soon as Li Qing touched it with his hand, he felt the abundant spirituality contained in it.

Li Qing's mind quickly started to stir, and it didn't take long for him to identify the material of this medicine refining cauldron.

"Is this a medicinal cauldron made of refined copper? Moreover, the method of quenching spirits is very good. I am afraid that some other means are also used to enhance spirituality."

Listening to Li Qing's voice of amazement, Taoist Qingyang smiled with satisfaction and said, "Hahaha, Taoist Fellow Erniu's skill in refining is really extraordinary. He can tell the origin of my tripod at a glance."

"That's right. When it was first refined, the secret copper essence was used, and after the spirit quenching, the light-reflecting dust was specially used to enhance the spirituality of the medicine cauldron."

Return to light dust!

As soon as these four words came out, Li Qing was even more amazed.

If you just listen to the name, it may be a bit ordinary, but if you know its function, it will definitely make many people tempted, especially weapon refiners like Li Qing.

This time, the light dust has only one effect: it can give spiritual materials more spirituality!

The grade of a magical weapon is basically only linked to the spiritual pattern and the spiritual materials used in refining it. The two complement each other and are even indispensable.

And this time the light dust can directly improve the spirituality of the spiritual material, which is equivalent to indirectly improving the quality of the magic weapon!

"Senior Qingyang, this medicine refining cauldron of yours is probably quite impressive even among high-grade magical instruments." Li Qing sighed.

Taoist Qingyang chuckled and said: "When Tianhefang City was destroyed, I was targeted by a foundation-building monk from the Shangqing Sect. If not, the medicine cauldron would not have been damaged."

Li Qing was wise enough not to ask what happened to the foundation-building monk. Since Taoist Qingyang could sit here unharmed, it meant a lot.

"Fellow Taoist Erniu, how's it going? Do you think it can be repaired?"

Li Qing, who was standing in front of the brass alchemy cauldron, pondered for a while, nodded and said:

"Senior Qingyang, if you still have the Secret Copper Essence, I can try it."

Having said that, Li Qing is actually quite confident.

Although the quality of the brass alchemy cauldron was extraordinary, the damage was actually not too serious, and it would be easier to re-engrave and renew the damaged fire-controlling spiritual patterns.

To put it bluntly, even if this medicine cauldron is not repaired, it doesn't really matter. It can still be used for fighting and refining medicine, and the impact will not be great.

Especially those fire-controlling spirit patterns. This Qingyang Taoist is a monk in the foundation-building stage, and he can activate the innate true fire. For him, whether the repair is successful or not is irrelevant.

However, Qingyang smiled and took out three pieces of secret copper essence about the size of his fist. He handed them all to Li Qing, and then said: "Then I'll trouble you, little friend!"

Li Qing carefully put away the three pieces of Secret Copper Essence, then cupped his fists and said: "Senior Qingyang, it may take a long time to repair the medicine cauldron, at least a month, this month."

"Hahahaha, don't worry. I don't plan to open a cauldron to refine medicine in the short term. You can just take it and repair it."

With these words, Li Qing felt relieved. He took away the brass alchemy cauldron and planned to rent a small courtyard in the outer area of ​​​​Qinghua Pond for a year.

"Two hundred and eighty spiritual stones? So cheap?"

Li Qing was a little surprised. He didn't expect that living in this spiritual place for a year would only cost less than 300 spiritual stones.

It can't even be said that it is cheap, but it is a bit too cost-effective.

The Tianhe Sect disciple in charge of renting the courtyard smiled kindly and said: "Fellow Taoist, you are holding the token of my Tianhe Sect disciple, and you are also a disciple of Senior Qingyang, so I have received 30% less spiritual stones from you!"

I see.

This world of cultivating immortals really pays attention to personal relationships and sophistication. Even renting a courtyard in the land of spiritual veins has so much emphasis on it.

In the end, Li Qing honestly took out three hundred spiritual stones, but the extra twenty spiritual stones went into the pocket of this Tianhe Sect disciple.

The latter smiled tacitly, and then signed the spiritual contract and certificate with Li Qing very neatly. The whole process was surprisingly fast.

"Fellow Taoist, this is your spiritual contract and certificate. Please keep it. You can live here for the next year. If you want to live here for a longer time, you can also rely on this contract to extend it."

Li Qing quickly clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, fellow Taoist!"

After completing the formalities, the disciples of Tianhe Sect left here with satisfaction.

"Stay here for a year. During this year, while cultivating, you can deepen your relationship with Taoist Qingyang. Later, you can also ask him to help you keep an eye on the people who refine the Foundation Establishment Pill."

Li Qing muttered to himself that he was quite wealthy with the spiritual stones he had on hand now, and if he was really short of spiritual stones in the future, he could get some Sky Star Grass and resell it.

Renting a courtyard here for a year only costs 300 spiritual stones, which is nothing more than drizzle to him.

As long as you can find a chance to get the Foundation Establishment Pill, everything is just a cloud.

After living for so many years, Li Qing is definitely not a miser. He deeply understands that the most important thing is to transform the spiritual stones on hand into his own strength.

Money is something external to the body, improvement of strength is the foundation!

After sending off the disciples of Tianhe Sect, Li Qing opened the gate of the courtyard with satisfaction and looked around his new residence for the next year.

"It's not bad. This place is close to the inner layer, the spiritual energy is very rich, and the scenery is beautiful. It's close to the mountains and rivers. It's good to live in seclusion here!"

Looking at the green pond not far from the gate, a cold mountain breeze just came, which made Li Qing feel very relaxed and happy.

The area of ​​the yard is not small. Li Qing directly put the rice bucket out and let it find a place to rest.

After doing all this, Li Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself: "It's time to repair the medicine cauldron!"

Dang!

The brass medicine cauldron with some cracks on the inner layer appeared in the middle of the courtyard. Li Qing took out the brass block and melted it directly in the medicine cauldron.

Bang!

He casually cast a fireball spell, and soon a ball of scorching fire surged in the cauldron.

Because it is ordinary fire, it is quite time-consuming and laborious to smelt it, and it is destined to take a long time.

There is no earth lung fire vein near Qinghua Lake, so Li Qing can only smelt it step by step.

"When I become stronger in the future, I must subdue a spiritual fire of my own, so that I can refine weapons anytime and anywhere."

"If it doesn't work, I can catch a few monsters that can spit demon fire."

"It's still too time-consuming to smelt spiritual materials with ordinary fire like this."

While sighing, Li Qing calcined the three pieces of secret copper essence given to him by Taoist Qingyang.

This kind of spiritual material is quite resistant to burning, otherwise it would not be used as the material of the medicine cauldron. After all, it is necessary to withstand the heat of the innate true fire of the foundation-building cultivator, and heat resistance is the most basic condition.

Li Qing is not worried about burning the medicine cauldron together. After experiencing the tempering and inscription, the medicine cauldron itself is equivalent to a top-grade magic weapon, which is very strong and sturdy.

The heat that can melt the secret copper essence cannot cause any damage to the medicine cauldron itself.

In this way, the calcination lasted for a full twenty days, which was surprisingly long!

Finally, three fist-sized pieces of secret copper essence were finally smelted.

Li Qing carefully used it to repair some cracks in the inner layer of the medicine cauldron, and then tempered it to make it fit the medicine cauldron as much as possible.

"Unfortunately, if Senior Qingyang still had Huiguang Dust, the repair would be more perfect."

"The spirituality of the repaired material is slightly different. Even if the repair is completed, there will be certain flaws."

Huiguang Dust improves the spirituality of the spiritual material by more than a little bit, and it is definitely not something that can be compensated by ordinary quenching methods. Even if Li Qing is more attentive to quenching, there is no way to make the spirituality of the secret copper essence smelted later comparable to the original material of the medicine cauldron.

Time passed quickly, and inadvertently, another seven days passed.

In the early morning, Li Qing's fingertips slowly connected the last fire control spiritual pattern, and the spiritual pattern in the medicine cauldron was completed!

After the repair was completed, Li Qing looked at the brand new medicine cauldron and couldn't help but curiously urged it.

Boom!

This brass tripod, which was originally half a person's height, suddenly became much larger.

As the spiritual patterns flickered, a wisp of hot flame gushed out from the wall of the tripod, which was extremely terrifying!

"It's amazing. If I had such a tripod, I'm afraid I could easily suppress ordinary Qi Refining cultivators."

Just by feeling it, Li Qing could truly feel the power contained in the medicine tripod.

Such a tripod can definitely be used for more than just refining medicine. If someone accidentally falls into it and then activates the hot flames in the tripod, or even the innate true fire, most cultivators can probably be easily refined into ashes.

However, the mana consumed by activating it is also quite amazing, and Li Qing quickly stopped injecting mana.

As the medicine tripod returned to its original state, Li Qing put it away and immediately sent it to the cave of Taoist Qingyang.

"Senior Qingyang, I am glad to have fulfilled your mission!"
