Chapter 152: Lover
‘I didn’t notice much threat in this formation, which means it’s not as high as the fourth level. But with Wei Zhong’s nature, he is at least the middle to upper level of the third level. ’
"Is it possible for Fellow Daoist Wei to refine a third-level puppet now?"
Wei Zhong replied: "It took many years, but I can barely make it successfully."
Miaoli Shan glanced at Wei Zhong. Such progress was no slower than those in the Chamber of Commerce.
"If fellow Taoist can refine a fourth-level puppet, I am afraid that his status in the chamber of commerce will exceed that of his subordinates."
Wei Zhong understood the meaning of his words. The fourth-level puppet master is different from the fourth-level weapon refiner and even the alchemist. The latter two are auxiliary skills that serve the Yuanying monks.
The puppet master, on the other hand, is a real fighter.
Fourth-level puppets can be compared with Yuanying monks, and the puppet master can even refine multiple puppets at the same time if the materials in hand allow.
Therefore, fourth-level puppet masters are even more cherished than ordinary early Yuanying monks.
Moreover, there is no such thing as a puppet's life span. Even if the puppet master dies, as long as the method of controlling the puppet is left behind, future generations can use this to achieve the Nascent Soul's combat power.
"Senior is joking, how can a poor man achieve this position? It is very difficult to reach the fourth level of alchemy. Puppet, it is difficult!"
Wei Zhong shook his head repeatedly.
"It's just a metaphor. If you, a fellow Taoist, can master multiple fourth-level skills at the same time, you can reveal your identity and stand in front of the stage.
In terms of safety, we, the Yunji Chamber of Commerce, will provide guarantees. Even if the Nascent Soul cultivator protects fellow Taoists at all times, it is not impossible. "
Hearing such a promise, to be honest, Wei Zhong was a little moved.
However, Wei Zhong had been practicing for many years and did not like to put his own safety in the hands of others, so he replied:
"Thank you for your kindness, senior. Wei will definitely work hard."
Seeing that there was not much movement on Wei Zhong's face, Miaoli Shan also knew that he did not take his words seriously.
After nodding his head and saying goodbye, Wei Zhong sent him out of the formation and watched the other party leave.
After returning to Spirit Island, he murmured: "The fourth-level puppet master will take some time."
Then he knocked on the door of Ling Ziwei's training room and delivered a jade slip. This was the inheritance of the fourth-level formation mage that Wei Zhong specially exchanged for contribution points from the Yunji Chamber of Commerce.
There are fourth-level and fifth-level puppet formations in "Shen Yin Jue", but they all rely on puppet formations and are not orthodox formations after all.
If Ling Ziwei wants to transform from a third-level array mage to a fourth-level master, she still needs an authentic fourth-level inheritance.
After handing the jade slips to the other party, Wei Zhong also returned to the cave to retreat on his own.
He took out various items obtained from Miaoli Shan, including elixirs and various spiritual materials, ranging in level from first to fourth level.
Wei Zhong plans to practice in the next few days, while using alchemy to earn spiritual objects, and focus on the puppet technique, so as to upgrade and strengthen the Five Elements Soldier Killing Formation.
"This time we have to refine five late-level third-level or top-notch puppets! In addition, the matching of multiple psychic cores must also be put on the agenda."
Thinking of this, the golden flame appeared in Wei Zhong's hand...
One month later, Song Linfang appeared in Zhigang Palace as a Nascent Soul, brought order to the chaos, and suppressed many Danjie elders within the sect.
At the same time, he officially announced to the outside world that he had successfully advanced to Yuanying, and Zhigang Palace had since become the number one Yuanying sect in Luohe Prefecture.
"The Nascent Soul Ceremony will be held in Zhigang Palace in half a year?"
Wei Zhong, who had just made a puppet leg, was very disappointed to be disturbed by this news, but it concerned the Nascent Soul cultivator and he had to treat it with caution.
"Yes, I'll go to the banquet then."
Wei Zhong left such a sentence and turned back to the cave.
Yuanying's invitation had to go, but the top priority was his own cultivation and the art of puppetry.
Half a year later, Wei Zhong successfully refined a late-stage third-order puppet. The puppet was dark yellow in color and was of the earth attribute.
The body is much larger than the average puppet, and the strength is also beyond it.
"It's a pity that I don't have earth-attribute magic runes in my hands. Although there are runes engraved on the puppets in the inheritance, I don't have much time to understand them."
The techniques Wei Zhong practiced were not many, and most of them were for auxiliary purposes, with few for attacking and killing. There is not even one with the earth attribute.
Over the years, he has only refined four first-order spells to the peerless level and obtained four spell runes.
Now even if we want to obtain other runes from scratch, it will take nearly a hundred years, and the gain outweighs the loss.
“The first-level magic is just the starting level, and can be used by Qi Refining monks.
But this does not mean that the first-level magic is weak, but that as the monk's magic power increases, it will improve and increase its power as the magic proficiency increases.
The unique spiritual techniques performed by many monks stand out from the techniques they practice.
My current situation is similar to this.
The complexity of second-level and even higher-level spells is higher than that of first-level spells, so there are certain requirements for the monk's cultivation. Gaining proficiency will also be more difficult.
At the same level of proficiency, the power of high-level spells exceeds that of low-level spells.
But proficient low-level spells are not necessarily worse than unskilled high-level spells. "
The four peerless spells in Wei Zhong's hands are a typical example. The spells are instantaneous and powerful.
"There is no problem in practicing new techniques, but you still have to choose carefully, after all, time is limited.
Not only do I have to be busy practicing, I also need to improve many skills at the same time. I really can't spare much time to devote to the path of magic.
It's best to use a technique that can increase your combat power and help you become a puppet. "
"It's better to take some time to study the runes in "Shen Yin Jue"."
After thinking about this, Wei Zhong no longer struggled.
After leaving the customs, he invited two girls and went straight to Gang Palace.
When they arrived at Gang Palace, a group of people arrived early.
These are the people of Jinguang Pavilion who are as famous as Zhigang Palace and are the two major alchemy sects in Luohe Prefecture. However, this title has completely become a thing of the past with Song Linfang Ningying.
"Fortunately, the Pavilion Master is cautious and we did not offend Zhigang Palace because of the false news, otherwise..."
Song Xinhe was a little emotional.
Other sect elders are also afraid.
When they first heard the news of Song Linfang's death, who wouldn't want to tear off a piece of flesh from Zhigang Palace's body. If the master of the pavilion hadn't suppressed everyone with all his strength, the Jinguang Pavilion would have been in dire straits now.
"The elders who heard the commotion in Zhigang Palace were sentenced to death, completely stripped of their status as elders, and now their fate is almost the same as that of slaves. It is really sad."
A female elder spoke up, with a hint of fear on her face.
"Okay, okay, this matter is over. We have strictly guarded our sect's territory and have never coveted the power of Gang Palace. I wonder what Senior Song is scolding."
"Are you all ready with the congratulatory gifts?"
Everyone nodded, and then flew to the entrance of the Gang Palace formation.
"Jia Pingjian, the master of Jinguang Pavilion, presented a pair of third-level soul-nourishing jade.
Huang Xinhe, the elder of Jinguang Pavilion, presented an eight-thousand-year-old blood ginseng.
Presented by Lou Rui, the elder of Jinguang Pavilion..."
The high-pitched sounds spread in front of the gate of Zhigang Palace, and they were all rare spiritual treasures in the third level.
"This time the Jinguang Pavilion really suffered a lot of blood."
"Haha, who says it's not the case? In the past, Jinguang Pavilion and Zhigang Palace were sects of the same level, so friction was inevitable. Now that Senior Song Ningying has changed, the situation has changed, so he must not curry favor and ask for forgiveness."
······
Such sarcastic remarks were heard among the visitors and people in Zhigang Palace.
"Hmph, this Jinguang Pavilion is quite clever. It's hard for me to attack it when I get to Gang Palace," Bu Yajuan heard the voice outside the palace say angrily.
"Jinguang Pavilion knows the general idea. I can't lose my etiquette when I go to Gang Palace." He turned and looked to his side, "Elder Xu, can you greet me on your behalf?"
Xu Xianliang took a step back and held his hands towards Song Linfang:
"I will obey the palace master's order!"
Then he flew out of the hall and headed towards the entrance of the formation.
Seeing his leaving figure, two people in the main hall had bitter expressions on their faces. These were the two people who had stood by and watched the internal fighting in Zhigang Palace, the two elders surnamed Yue and Huang.
Compared with Xu Xianliang, who strongly supported Song and Bu sisters, their status is now much inferior.
Even standing in the corner of the hall, he didn't dare to look at Song Linfang.
As for the other three people who caused the internal fight, they were nowhere to be seen, and it is unknown what kind of punishment they were given by Song Linfang.
······
"Wei Zhongzhi, the owner of Qingbo Island..."
"I present you with a third-level high-grade magic sword, a magic shield, a magic bracelet, a bottle of top-grade Haoyuan Pill, and a bottle of top-grade Soul Nourishing Pill..."
The voice of the master of ceremonies echoed in Zhigang Palace for a long time. When the cultivators heard such a gift, they were all stunned. When they understood the contents of the entire gift, they all took a breath.
"Did I hear you right? They are all of the third level, and they are the top spiritual creatures among them."
"This third-level high-grade magic sword is equivalent to Lao Na's entire net worth," a Danjie monk even beat his chest and lamented that Wei Zhong was rich.
The sound of discussion continued inside the Zhigang Palace, and a bird chirped, causing everyone to look up into the sky and see the handsome and handsome Master Wei.
He was standing on the back of an extraordinary and handsome spiritual bird, talking to the two women beside him.
Wei Zhong didn't pay much attention to the discussion of the monks below. Now as he gradually becomes more and more proficient in the second method of alchemy, this magical weapon and spiritual elixir can no longer cost Wei Zhong many spiritual stones.
It is far inferior to the puppet that needs to be refined.
By casually removing one of the silver puppet's arms, Wei Zhong can forge several third-level high-grade magical swords.
"My husband is really in the limelight," Ling Ziwei said with a smile.
Xie Linghua on the other side also looked excited and proud.
"What does this mean? Compared with Song Linfang who has achieved the Nascent Soul, she is still far behind."
As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of light flew to the side of the spiritual bird, and Xu Xianliang's figure appeared.
It turned out that after hearing Wei Zhong's arrival, Xu Xianliang said hello in front of everyone in Jinguang Pavilion, and then handed him over to his disciple Zhuji for hospitality.
He quickly rushed to Wei Zhong to greet him.
"I have met Master Wei. The palace master has been waiting in the hall for a long time. Please come with me."
When Wei Zhong introduced the pill formation, there was no reason for Master Yuanying to welcome him personally.
In the envious eyes of a group of people, Wei Zhong accepted the nine colors, took his two daughters, and followed Xu Xianliang into the main hall of Zhigang Palace.
All the cultivators knew that this was where the Nascent Soul cultivator was. Before Wei Zhong, no one had set foot in it, not even the people from the Jinguang Pavilion led by the monks in the late stage of pill formation were no exception.
In the hall, Wei Zhong saw Song Linfang sitting in the main seat. She was wearing a golden dress and looked extraordinary.
Raising his hand slightly, he signaled to the disciples in the hall to give the three of them seats, and at the same time joked to Wei Zhong:
"Fellow Daoist Wei is really generous in his actions, far more than before."
Wei Zhong showed some regret:
"I'm not very skilled, and I don't have any fourth-level spiritual objects in my hands, so I have to use third-level spiritual elixirs and magic weapons to counteract them and replenish my health. Senior, please don't dislike me."
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Wei said something serious."
······
A few people chatted for a while, and the voices of the masters of ceremonies outside the palace could not be stopped. In order to leave a good impression in front of Song Linfang, the new Nascent Soul, they all offered valuable spiritual objects, which made Wei Zhong's mood fluctuate a little.
Secretly sighing: ‘We can make a lot of money by holding the Nascent Soul Ceremony this time! ’
But after a long time, Wei Zhong didn't hear any fourth-level spiritual beings.
finally,
"The Wang family, Fairy Wang has arrived, and I wish to give you a bottle of Infant Training Pill."
‘Wang family? ’
Wei Zhong raised his eyebrows and saw a hint of joy in Song Linfang's eyes.
But it wasn't over yet, a voice sounded immediately:
"Gathering at the Chamber of Commerce, Fairy Miao has arrived, offering her a bottle of Xuan Dan as a gift."
Outside the formation, Miaoli Shan looked at Wang Qianxi opposite and said with a soft smile:
"As expected of the Wang family, they are really wealthy. They can easily buy a whole bottle of Infant Training Pill."
"It's extraordinary that Taoist friends gathered in the Chamber of Commerce. When Senior Xie left, he gave me a bottle of Xuan Dan as soon as he asked," Wang Qianxi said teasingly.
As soon as these words came out, Miaoli Shan's face turned cold. It didn't matter how the other party said Yunji Chamber of Commerce, but it was inappropriate to put Senior Xie in his words.
"Hmph, I gathered in the Chamber of Commerce to have a great business, so a mere bottle of elixir doesn't mean anything.
Moreover, Senior Jie has successors, and his disciples have already reached the level of fourth-level alchemy masters, so this little pill is even more insignificant. "
Wang Qianxi's eyes flickered, and she had also heard the news about a new fourth-level alchemist from the Yunji Chamber of Commerce.
It's just that the Yunji Chamber of Commerce concealed this person's information very well, and there was no way to know his identity.
The words of the two were shielded by Nascent Soul's magic power and did not fall into other people's ears.
Just when the two Nascent Soul cultivators were still about to compete, Song Linfang flew out of the hall and landed aside:
"I've met two fellow Taoists."
The two had no choice but to give up, and Wang Qianxi showed a slight smile:
"I have prepared a small gift to congratulate Sister Song on her success in condensing the baby. I hope she won't dislike it."
The words are full of intimacy.
"Why do you dislike such a great gift? It's my younger sister who needs to thank my elder sister from the Wang family."
Miaolishan looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh in her heart:
‘The Wang family’s movements are really fast. ’
He gave a polite congratulation to Song Linfang and then led him into the Zhigang Palace.
Wang Qianxi frowned slightly when she saw Wei Zhong and other three guests in the palace.
Seeing this, Song Linfang immediately knew that she had made a mistake and quickly explained Wei Zhong's identity to him, emphasizing that he had a good personal relationship with Wei Zhong.
From this, Wang Qianxi's face became a little better, and she said via voice:
"Sister Song, this man has a wife and a concubine, so he is not a good man!"
