Chapter 340: A Little Trick

Lu Fan even thought he was hallucinating. How could anyone be willing to provide him with a foundation-building pill when his path was at its lowest point?

That was a foundation-building pill, not a cabbage on the roadside. How could anyone casually promise to give it to him? !

No!

He was not hallucinating, because he was very familiar with this gentle voice, and it could even be said that he could not forget it!

Just when he was about to be beaten to death by the head of the Tang family at the Ascension Conference some time ago, it was the owner of this voice who showed up and saved his life from the crisis.

"Elder Li?! Is that you, Elder Li?!" Lu Fan's body trembled slightly, and his voice sounded a little hoarse.

Soon, at the gate of Lu Fan's courtyard, a tall figure walked over with his hands behind his back.

"You took a risk in a desperate situation, and you didn't use the foundation-building pill to break through the barrier, but forced the foundation. I have to say that I admire your courage."

"At least if it were me, I wouldn't do such a risky and crazy thing."

After seeing Li Qing's face clearly, Lu Fan knelt down and begged: "Elder Li, I was tricked. They asked me to guard a crazy old senior alone in the ice prison for a whole day. If this continues, I'm afraid I will go crazy in less than a month."

"I can't help it, I can't help it!"

In fact, he had heard about the rumor about the crazy old man in the ice prison.

It is said that the old man was once an elder of the sect, with unfathomable strength. Later, in order to seek a breakthrough in the formation of the pill, he went astray when practicing a secret technique and fell into madness.

The sect had no choice but to invite the supreme elder to suppress him in the ice prison.

Li Qing sighed and said, "So you risked your life to break through the barrier? Do you know that this is a very irresponsible thing to do?"

"You think that the worst that can happen is death, but have you ever thought about how your relatives and friends will view this matter?"

"The sect paid the price of a foundation-building pill to cultivate you. If you die like this, will you be worthy of the sect?"

"Even if all this is not discussed for the time being, think about it again. After the person who put you in this situation knows about your death, do you think he will feel even a little bit of guilt for it?"

These words were deafening, and Lu Fan was like being struck by thunder, and the whole person was stunned on the spot.

Bang!

The next moment, Lu Fan directly kowtowed to Li Qing with his head on the ground, and the sound was crisp and loud.

Only physical cultivators dare to do this. If it were an ordinary cultivator, he would probably end up with a bloody head.

"Please teach me, Elder Li!"

Looking at Lu Fan who was prostrating himself, Li Qing smiled slightly, and then took out a foundation-building pill from his arms.

The clear fragrance of the pill spread slightly in the air, and almost in an instant, Lu Fan smelled the familiar aroma of the pill.

Swish!

Lu Fan suddenly raised his head, his eyes were extremely hot, and there was a strong desire in his eyes.

Yes, this is the foundation-building pill, exactly the same as the one he had eaten before.

"I still have a foundation-building pill here, but for me now, this foundation-building pill is not very meaningful, it is nothing more than exchanging for more spirit stones."

"Gululu!"

Lu Fan swallowed his saliva, and then trembled: "Elder Li, how can I get this foundation-building pill?!"

At this time, Lu Fan could no longer care about anything. For this pill, even if he was asked to risk his life, Li Qing felt that he would probably do it.

"Haha, everything in the world has a price, I won't tell you these empty words."

"To be honest, I am somewhat interested in the body-refining technique you practice."

After these words came out, Lu Fan was stunned, and then without saying anything, he took out a dark golden bamboo slip from his storage bag.

"Elder Li, you once saved my life at the Ascension Conference, which is already a great favor that I cannot repay!"

"Since Elder Li has taken a fancy to this "Brahma King True Body", it is my honor, Elder, just take it!"

Such a sensible Lu Fan made this transaction unexpectedly smooth, even Li Qing felt a little funny.

But on second thought, this person has experienced the ups and downs of the world during this period of time. From a promising immortal seedling, he was suddenly beaten back to the bottom of the valley. In addition, he has endured so much oppression. Now that he finally sees a life-saving straw, he will naturally do everything he can to grab it.

This is the so-called icing on the cake is easy, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow.

And Li Qing had waited for so many days for this effect.

"I am not the kind of greedy and unrighteous person. Since we agreed to make a deal, how could I ask for a favor in return?"

"My previous action at the Ascension Conference was just my duty. No matter which disciple was threatened by Tang Lushan, I would help him."

"I accept this body refining technique, and you also take this foundation-building pill."

After saying that, Li Qing took the dark golden bamboo slip and then handed the round and full foundation-building pill to the other party.

Feeling the foundation-building pill in hand, Lu Fan's burly body trembled slightly again, and his face was mixed with mixed feelings, as if he wanted to immediately recognize Li Qing as his adoptive father.

However, what Lu Fan wanted to say next was not "If you don't abandon me", but he said with a little panic:

"Elder Li, this body refining technique is actually a fragment. What I got is only part of the first, second and third levels!"

"This technique has a mysterious origin. I accidentally entered a cave in my early years. It is very powerful and does not seem to be created by humans."

Listening to Lu Fan's explanation, Li Qing carefully read the brief description of part of this technique.

"Well, it is indeed not a body-refining secret technique that humans can practice. When it reaches the third stage, it is so domineering."

Li Qing muttered to himself, frightened by the third-stage body-refining process.

The first two stages are fine. You need to find various spiritual objects with vigorous vitality to nourish the body.

But when it comes to the third stage, you actually need to use the power of thunder to cleanse the body. This is not a normal human body-refining technique.

It is somewhat like the inheritance secret method of monsters. Generally, monsters will need to go through thunder tribulation when they grow to the third stage.

And this technique is just when you practice to the third stage, you use the power of thunder to cleanse the body.

"This method is so powerful that if you practice it to the third level, you may even lose your life essence." Li Qing couldn't help but whisper to himself.

This made Lu Fan feel a little embarrassed. He said awkwardly: "I also plan to stop practicing at the second level. Elder Li, if you need anything, just tell me. I can do it!"

Lu Fan was a little uneasy. He was a little worried that Li Qing would suddenly regret after reading the method and choose not to trade.

But this was of course his overthinking. Li Qing actually only wanted a second-level body refining secret method. Since he had already got it, he would not go back on his word.

Apart from anything else, at least he was very satisfied with the second-level body refining part of this "Brahma King True Body".

As for the incomplete third-level part, since it was not complete, he certainly would not consider it so much.

After putting away the dark golden bamboo slips, Li Qing shook his head and said, "No need. Just keep the foundation-building pill. Whether you can successfully build your foundation with it depends on your luck."

After the words fell, Li Qing was about to turn around and leave.

But he thought about it, turned around and reminded, "Oh, there is one more thing. The person who deliberately made things difficult for you is called Zheng Donghe. You should be familiar with him. He is the instigator of today's incident."

"I tell you this to give you hope. Don't let these things overwhelm your reason. If you want revenge, your own strength is the key to everything."

After leaving these words, Li Qing did not stay any longer. He used the night to hide his figure, and then restrained his own breath, and left the place where the Qi Refining Stage disciples lived without anyone noticing.

Lu Fan stood there muttering to himself. After watching Li Qing leave, he gritted his teeth:

"It turned out to be you. What a good Senior Brother Zheng. You acted so righteous in front of me some time ago, but you turned out to be such a mean person!"

"It's just that I didn't trade the foundation-building pill to you, and you still want to do this to me afterwards!"

In an instant, Lu Fan's eyes suddenly turned red. He clenched his teeth and his voice was full of hatred.

If Elder Li hadn't come today, he might still be in the dark and couldn't find out who was framing him behind his back.

"Huh! Calm down! Calm down! Don't lose your mind! Listen to Elder Li!"

Lu Fan kept taking deep breaths and forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart.

If it weren't for Li Qing's last reminder, he might really lose his mind and kill directly to the other party's door to fight a desperate battle with Zheng Donghe.

"This time, I must succeed in building my foundation and not disappoint Elder Li's expectations!"

After saying that, Lu Fan sat down cross-legged and began to adjust his state to prepare for his second foundation building.

On the other side, Li Qing flew towards his cave without haste.

He no longer cared whether Lu Fan could change his fate with this foundation building pill.

As for the last words he said to Lu Fan, it was actually just a small revenge on Zheng Donghe.

At the beginning, Zheng Donghe also proposed to him to buy the foundation building pill, and Li Qing naturally rejected the other party.

However, Li Qing later succeeded in building his foundation, so he naturally put these trivial matters behind his mind and did not take them to heart at all.

Now seeing what happened to Lu Fan, he remembered what Zheng Donghe had done.

"If I had failed to build my foundation, I'm afraid my fate wouldn't be much better than Lu Fan's, right?"

"Just treat it as a little trick, I won't bother to bother with Zheng Donghe about those things in the future."

It can be foreseen that no matter whether Lu Fan can build his foundation successfully or not, Zheng Donghe will have to face Lu Fan's hatred in the future.

And all this is just a little punishment from him.

Now that he is an elder of a sect, he naturally won't do anything to retaliate against the other party in person, which would be too cheap and easy to ruin his reputation.

When the news spreads, how will other elders and disciples of the sect view him?

Small-minded, bullying the weak? !

Reputation, although it seems useless on weekdays, a good reputation is better than a bad reputation.

He thinks such a revenge is very appropriate, which can not only get rid of himself, but also successfully attract hatred from the other party.

This method is smooth and gentle, and being a hidden mastermind is what Li Qing likes most.
