Chapter 329 Merit Hall Opens
It has been more than three months since Li Qing took up the position of the weapon refiner elder. Time always passes by silently. People who are caught off guard will always lament that time passes so fast.
Of course, there is absolutely no Li Qing among these people. He will never lament that time passes too fast. The reason is not only because of his long life, but also because he understands the principle of living in the present and grasping the present.
During this period of crazy weapon refining, he accumulated a lot of contribution points.
But now he stopped thinking about continuing to accept the commissioned weapon refining, because the sect's elixir was about to be released, and it was soon time for them, the foreign affairs elders, to redeem the elixir.
"Finally I can exchange for elixirs again. I have been waiting for three full years! I must exchange for more Ziyang elixirs this time!"
"Hahaha, Senior Brother Zhao, have you contributed enough? I remember that you haven't taken on many sect tasks in the past few years, right?"
"I just happened to complete the collection task that Uncle Bingyun posted a few days ago. Although I don't have many contribution points on hand, I still have some left."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Senior Brother Zhao is really rich and has a lot of secrets."
"That's absolutely true. I vaguely remember that the mission of Ancestor Bingyun was to collect second-level ice-attribute monster crystal cores, right?"
"Even though there are still many ice-attribute monsters in the Forbidden Snowfield, second-level monsters are not that easy to find!"
"."
The place where contribution points are exchanged for cultivation qualifications in Lingyun Sect is called Merit Hall, which stands on a mountain peak at the center of the sect.
It was a light golden hall. Unlike other buildings, the Merit Hall was truly on top of a mountain.
Because the entire pale golden hall is suspended above the mountain peak, and a second-level formation is laid out underneath.
Although it is only a second-level formation, it can be linked with Lingyun Sect's sect-protecting formation to exert terrifying power.
Many foreign affairs elders like Li Qing all came hand in hand. They formed a group of three or five and flew towards the main hall of Merit Hall with expectant smiles on their faces.
Li Qing was naturally mixed in with the crowd. He was chatting and laughing with several elders of the weapon refining hall, and he didn't seem to be inconspicuous.
Soon, after almost all the elders in need of the elixir had arrived, an exclamation came:
"What?! Why is the share of Ziyang Pill this year so small? It is a full 30% less than before!"
As soon as this exclamation came out, many of the foreign affairs elders who came over felt their hearts pounding.
"Is this true? Why is the share of Ziyang Dan so small?"
"Did something happen? I remember that the quantity of Ziyang Pills in the past was quite stable?!"
"Isn't the elixir enough?"
Among the crowd, Li Qing also frowned slightly as he watched this scene.
Originally, when exchanging elixirs, it was a situation of more wolves and less meat. But now that other elders have said this, it seems that the share of elixirs has become smaller.
"How could it be so unlucky? This is the first time I exchanged elixirs in the sect and this happened." Li Qing couldn't help complaining in his heart, but he didn't express it as clearly as others.
Hearing the complaining questions from the elders, an old elder who was in charge of the matter in Merit Hall said with a smile: "Brothers, please be patient. There are indeed some unexpected situations this year."
"But the reason is not what you think. Just last year, some elders of Tianhe Sect bought a batch of elixirs for refining Ziyang Pill from us."
"At that time, the sect originally planned to refuse, but the price offered by the Tianhe Sect was indeed not low. The head brother finally made a decision with several Supreme Elders and agreed to this transaction, but it was just this time."
As soon as these words came out, Li Qing was slightly stunned. What happened last year, when he was still in the Extreme Night World, he really didn't know that Tianhe Sect actually came to Lingyun Sect.
"Let me tell you, why did the Tianhe Sect send an envoy here for the first time last year!"
"Even the head brother and the Supreme Elder have been making decisions on the deal. What price did the Tianhe Sect offer?"
"Not sure."
The old elder of Gongde Hall chuckled and said: "Don't just focus on Ziyang Pill. Take a look. Gongde Hall now has a lot of new top-quality spiritual materials, as well as some rare treasures in the formation. This is It was a rare spiritual creature in the past.”
"In addition, although the Ziyang Pill is missing by 30%, the Qingxuan Pill is still there, which is also very useful in increasing the mana during the foundation building stage!"
As he spoke, the old elder kept pointing, reminding others not to just stare at the Ziyang Pill.
"It's true, this kind of black chalcedony is rare."
"Yes, it is indeed true. I am in need of this moon crystal to study the formation."
"."
Not only these elders, but also Li Qing, a weapon refiner, was naturally keen to see a spiritual material for weapon refining that he needed.
"The silk sac of the shadow spider!"
Tianluo Banner!
Li Qing almost immediately remembered that one of the main materials for refining this top-quality magical weapon was the silk of the six-legged shadow spider!
Unexpectedly, he unexpectedly encountered a whole ball of spider silk sacs in the merit hall, which was really shocking.
"If I buy this spider silk sac, my next contribution points will only be enough to exchange for a bottle of Ziyang Pill or two bottles of Qingxuan Pill!"
Li Qing frowned and suddenly became confused again.
If he could refine the best magic weapon, his combat power would definitely increase exponentially again.
But he couldn't hesitate for too long, because other elders had also finished looking at them one after another and started to exchange for what they wanted.
Even if there were many other precious spiritual materials, the elixir that could improve mana and cultivation would always be the most difficult and sought-after thing.
If he didn't make a decision quickly, there would be very few elixirs left for him!
Just as Li Qing was about to speak, he suddenly saw a foundation-building cultivator dressed like a girl in the crowd, staring at the spider silk sac of the shadow spider and looking at it with a tangled look.
The girl was none other than Chu Lingyi! A quirky girl who claimed to be a rare talent in the way of talismans.
Before this, Li Qing had been thinking about other things and didn't notice the other party. He didn't expect that the other party would also come to exchange elixirs.
But on second thought, Chu Lingyi was the foreign affairs elder of the sect like him, so it wasn't strange for her to appear here.
At first, Li Qing thought that the other party wanted to take away the spider silk sac, but soon he raised his eyebrows, quickly squeezed forward and said: "Junior Sister Lingyi, it is true that we meet everywhere in life. I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Are you also interested in the spider silk sac of this shadow spider? Why don't we exchange it together? I only want half of the spider silk!"
Li Qing's smile was appropriate and gentle, but his speed of speech was very fast, and he didn't delay much time at all.
Chu Lingyi turned around in surprise, and then saw the waist badge on Li Qing's waist that symbolized the elder of the weapon refining hall, and then he agreed directly:
"Okay! No problem! But I can only give you half of the spider silk, and the sac must belong to me!" Chu Lingyi blinked cunningly, as cunning as a fox.
Sac?
Although this sac wrapped with a lot of spider silk is of no use to him, he always feels that it is a bit of a loss to agree like this.
However, time is running out. If he delays any longer, all the pills will be snatched up. At the same time, he changed his mind and thought that Chu Lingyi had given him a beast transformation talisman for free before.
Well, let's just repay her for this favor!
"Okay!"
As soon as these words came out, the two of them quickly told the elders of the Merit Hall what they wanted to exchange!
Not long after, Li Qing squeezed out of the crowd with a bottle of Ziyang Pill and a bottle of Qingxuan Pill, followed by Chu Lingyi who was smiling very happily, his eyes narrowed into crescents.
"Hehe, Senior Brother Li, this is half of the spider silk you want. The quantity is absolutely no problem. I gave you some more!" Chu Lingyi smiled and handed a ball of cold spider silk to Li Qing.
Li Qing also breathed a sigh of relief after taking the spider silk from the Shadow Spider. Judging from the quantity, it is definitely more than enough to refine the Tianluo Banner.
"It seems that I am too out of touch with the news. I didn't expect that Senior Brother Li would become the Elder of the Refining Hall. It seems that we will have room for cooperation in the future." Chu Lingyi, holding the spider silk sac, came over and looked at Li Qing with her pretty face.
In response, Li Qing just smiled and then put the spider silk sac into the storage bag.
"It is also my dream to be friends with Junior Sister Chu, a rare talent in the way of talismans in a century."
After more than a year, Chu Lingyi is still as childish as ever, always like a carefree butterfly, and her mentality seems to never change with time.
She tilted her head and stuck out her tongue at Li Qing, then said: "Being able to befriend a genius talisman master like me is definitely the luckiest thing you have ever done in your life!"
"Haha, then please, as a talisman genius, explain to me, a mortal, what is the use of this spider silk bag?"
To be honest, if Chu Lingyi hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have thought of it. After all, the only thing valuable to him was spider silk. Even if Chu Lingyi didn't say it, he wouldn't think it was a big deal if she took the bag away.
After Chu Lingyi's special mention just now, he became very curious.
Chu Lingyi's face became very alert: "Hmph, Senior Brother Li, going back on your word is not the attitude a senior brother should have!"
"You have already agreed to give me the bag, so you can't continue to have ideas about it!"
Li Qing couldn't help but laugh for a while: "I just asked because I was curious, I won't ask you to take the bag."
Hearing what Li Qing said, Chu Lingyi showed a relieved expression, her cheeks showed two sweet dimples, and then said: "Of course it's drawing talismans, I'm creating a new kind of talisman recently, maybe this bag can bring me unexpected effects!"
When it comes to drawing talismans, Chu Lingyi started to talk endlessly, and she talked a lot.
But Li Qing didn't have much interest. He didn't understand talismans, and he just felt like he was listening to a heavenly book, which went in one ear and out the other.
What kind of compatibility between talismans and talisman paper, the strangeness of the shadow spider silk bag, might have a good combination effect with the shadow escape talisman she was developing.
After all the conversation, only the three words "shadow escape talisman" remained in Li Qing's mind, and the other words were all thrown behind his head.
"Shadow escape talisman?" Li Qing asked curiously.
"Yes, I've been studying escape techniques recently. I found that the most common thing in the world is shadow, so I want to develop an escape talisman that can blend into the shadow and then escape!"
Shadow escape is really a good idea. Li Qing nodded, and then continued:
"I have seen a unique wood magic called wood shadow escape, which can achieve rapid escape in the woods."
However, Chu Lingyi said, "Wood Shadow Escape is just a relatively simple escape technique. It can only be used in the bushes and the distance is very short. Moreover, this spell is not really about escaping in the shadows, but actually traveling between trees."
"It is called Wood Shadow Escape just because it looks like an illusion."
So that's it
Li Qing, who had gained a little more knowledge, said again, "Then I will wait for good news from Junior Sister Chu. If the talismans are useful, I might buy a lot of them!"
As if waiting for Li Qing's words, Chu Lingyi had already spotted Li Qing, a big customer.
"Hehe, if you want to buy it, I will definitely give you the biggest discount!"
"Okay, no more talking, I also want to go to the Fu Hall to continue studying new talismans!"
The talisman genius girl Chu Lingyi, driving a colorful silk, floated away.
Li Qing just nodded, and then quickly flew towards his cave.
In order to exchange for the Shadow Spider Silk and the elixir he had been longing for, he had spent almost all of his contribution points that he had accumulated for so long.
Now, of course, he couldn't wait to return to the cave to transform these elixirs into his own strength!
