Chapter 187: Earth Spiritual Roots Formed, Realm Breakthrough

"Senior Miao, this is the elixir task I have completed in the past few years."

Wei Zhong handed the elixir bottle in his hand to Miao Lishan, who immediately showed a look of amazement on his face.

Because Wei Zhong took out too many fourth-level elixir at one time, a full ten elixir bottles:

"If the people in the Dan Palace saw this efficiency of Fellow Daoist Wei, how ashamed they would be!"

Wei Zhong smiled slightly. During the years he stayed in Yunji Chamber of Commerce, he already had a lot of understanding of Yunji Chamber of Commerce.

Although Yunji Chamber of Commerce respected the two halls of Danqi, the output of high-level elixir, magic weapon, especially the fourth-level level is not much.

As the general manager of Danqi, Du Longfeng usually only has two bottles of fourth-level elixir a year, about twenty pieces, just to meet the needs of the internal members of the Chamber of Commerce for cultivation.

Only when other forces offer satisfactory rewards for elixir, their output will exceed this share.

As for the other two fourth-level alchemists who have reached the stage of Jindan cultivation, their alchemy skills are not yet profound enough, and the consumption of spiritual medicine is too great. Therefore, the share of fourth-level spiritual medicine in their hands is far less than that of Wei Zhong and Du Longfeng. It is good enough to produce five or six pills a year.

The fourth-level magic tools produced by the Qidian are even more pitiful, almost pre-ordered. The Qidian will only start the furnace when someone offers a price. It can be said that for decades, the Qidian has rarely had a business related to fourth-level magic tools, and most of them are supported by magic tools of levels one to three.

"Since the pills have been delivered, I will leave. If you need them in the future, Senior Miao can go to Qingbo Island to find me."

"Is Fellow Daoist Wei leaving?"

Wei Zhong nodded:

"That's right. The puppet problem has been solved. I don't need to stay here. I plan to return to Luohe Mansion for a retreat and improve my cultivation.

"After all, cultivation is the most important thing on the road of cultivation."

"Since that's the case, I won't stop you. But there is one more thing for you to take. ”

Miaoli Shan took out a transparent jade bottle, which contained a white flocculent liquid.

“What is this?”

“The master promised you a spiritual object that can eliminate the poison of the pill. This is it, which we call Yaoxu Liquid.

“It is made from a variety of fourth-level spiritual objects. It is neither pill nor wine. If you insist, it is more appropriate to use the word spiritual food.”

“Spiritual food?”

Wei Zhong took it back from Miaoli Shan, looked at it carefully, and found that the flocculent objects in it really looked like white beards, which were clumps and floated in the bottle from time to time, which made Wei Zhong feel a little disgusted.

Miaoli Shan chuckled:

“This is not a living thing, you can use it with confidence.

“This bottle of spiritual liquid is enough for you to use three times, and it can last for about ten years at a time. Of course, if you take too many pills, the effect time will be shortened, which requires you to control it yourself.”

Wei Zhong nodded and put it into the storage bag:

“Thank you for your kindness, senior, I will leave now. "

After bowing to him, Wei Zhong went to the outer formation of the Chamber of Commerce.

At the exit of the formation, he saw Yan Wanhong waiting there.

The other party's hair and beard were all white, and his face looked older than before.

"Daoyou Wei!"

He took out a storage, and after Wei Zhong took it and checked it, it was full of various spiritual objects.

This was purchased and collected by Wei Zhong from various places in the Chamber of Commerce.

"The number of spiritual materials is correct, thank you, Daoyou Yan."

Wei Zhong took out a pill bottle as a reward, and the other party accepted it calmly:

"Daoyou is leaving this trip, I don't know when we can meet again..."

I don't know if it's because his life span is coming to an end, but there is a bit of sentimentality in the other party's words.

"Haha, Daoyou Yan, if you are bored, you can go to my Qingbo Island for tea. Would I drive you away? "

The two laughed and talked for a while, then Wei Zhong bowed and left.

Taking out the spirit boat in mid-air, Wei Zhong shook his head:

"If you can't become a Nascent Soul, you will turn into dust after 600 years.

"Even if my life span is endless, I can't slack off on this road..."

Qingbo Island, a blue-gold escape light appeared, and Wei Zhong flew out of the spirit boat. The clouds in front of the formation rolled, revealing Ling Ziwei and Xie Linghua.

After receiving the news that Wei Zhong was about to return, the two had been waiting here for a long time:

"Husband!"

"Master!"

After a long separation, the three of them had to be warm and affectionate.

After three months, Wei Zhong slowly shifted his focus to cultivation.

In the cave, Wei Zhong took out the Yuanshuizhu. At this moment, the grade of this life magic weapon once again climbed to the top level of the third-grade upper grade, and there was no room for improvement.

After sensing his spiritual roots again, Wei Zhong exhaled:

"The top-grade spiritual roots are about to be perfect. The earth spiritual roots will be formed soon, and the road to cultivation will be smooth from now on. The Nascent Soul can be formed, and the God Transformation stage can be reached..."

After taking a dust-reducing pill, Wei Zhong's consciousness seemed to be free from the confinement of the flesh, floating and flickering, and the five-colored spiritual roots hidden inside the body could be seen.

Among them, the light blue water spiritual root was the most dazzling, and it seemed to be about to undergo a transformation.

"The Spirit Planting Method, Yuanshuizhu..."

Wei Zhong was already familiar with this process, and the pure water spiritual energy was filled in...

After March, black clouds condensed in the sky above Qingbo Island, and a thunder tribulation was brewing.

But before the clouds were piled up and formed, they slowly dissipated.

Wei Zhong's consciousness crossed the cave, looked at the black clouds in the sky, and a trace of cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

“I didn’t expect that using the Spirit Planting Method to cultivate earth spirit roots would actually cause a thunderstorm reaction. Fortunately, the black cloud did not condense into a shape and dissipated.”

The shadow of the Thunder Tribulation caused Wei Zhong to be particularly concerned about the Thunder Tribulation, fearing that something like the Thunder Dragon would appear again.

Wei Zhong lowered his guard, sat down cross-legged, and concentrated on sensing, naturally seeing that the water spirit root in his body had officially transformed.

[Name: Wei Zhong]

[Cultivation: Mid-stage pill formation (sixth level·23%)]

[Spiritual Root: Earthly Product]

[Shouyuan: 442/540]

"I have practiced Taoism for more than two hundred years, and today I have finally gained the mystery of the earth's spiritual roots. In the future, I can also call myself a genius."

Wei Zhong chuckled, feeling endless pleasure.

The surrounding spiritual energy does not need to be used to operate the technique, but it will rush into his body.

This is the effect of the earth spirit root. The owner of this spirit root does not need to take the initiative to practice, and his cultivation level will naturally improve. Although the improvement is limited, it is enviable enough.

Wei Zhong ran the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Technique" and suddenly felt a far greater amount of spiritual energy pouring into his body than before. With the help of the elixir, the spiritual energy exploded both inside and outside at the same time.

The whole person seemed to be soaked in an ocean of spiritual energy.

"This cultivation speed has increased again!"

Estimating the changes in spiritual roots, if spiritual pills and other substances are not used to assist cultivation, the efficiency of earth spiritual roots is about three to ten times that of high-grade spiritual roots.

The span varies depending on the subdivision level of the high-grade spiritual roots. For example, Wei Zhong's high-grade spiritual roots half a year ago were considered to be the top of the high-grade spiritual roots, while the off-ground ones were nothing more than a layer of window paper.

"If you use spiritual pills and other items to support you, the improvement in your practice speed will not be so obvious, and it will be roughly twice as fast as before.

"But this is not the most important thing. The increase in the speed of practice is certainly surprising. What's more important is that the Earth Spiritual Root qualification means that the path to practice in the future will be almost unobstructed.

"The previous small bottlenecks from the mid to late stages will disappear directly. The only thing that affects the progress of cultivation is the limitation of resources."

Wei Zhong stood up and estimated that in a few more years, he could easily break through to the late stage of pill formation.

However, this matter is not urgent. The celestial phenomenon caused by the spiritual root's promotion to the earth grade caused some panic and discussion on the spiritual island, which still needs to be dealt with.

Taking one step forward, Wei Zhong came to the other courtyard where the two girls were.

Seeing Wei Zhong appear in front of him safe and sound, Ling Ziwei patted her chest:

"Husband, who was that black cloud just now?"

Wei Zhong pulled the two girls over and said calmly:

"It's just a vision caused by the promotion of spiritual roots."

Xie Ling Hua Mian was surprised:

"Could it be?"

Wei Zhong nodded slowly:

"It took nearly a hundred years to successfully enter the land."

These words sounded like thunder in the hearts of the two of them, making them unable to recover for a long time.

After a while, Ling Ziwei lost her shock and said playfully:

"From now on, my husband can also be called a genius."

Wei Zhong smiled:

"It's okay for you two to know about this, and don't let it leak out."

The two women nodded heavily.

In fact, there is no need for Wei Zhong to remind him that the oath he made in the past regarding the "Spirit Seed Method" will also eliminate the possibility of the two of them leaking the secret.

After having a laugh with the two girls, Wei Zhong's consciousness crossed half of the spiritual island and transmitted the message to Hu Jinchuan and others:

"Experiment with spiritual methods, don't be frightened..."

The latter wiped his sweat and told the monks on the island to do their own thing and not to be affected by it.

Then he looked up at the clear sky, and saw that the few black clouds that had gathered just now were gone.

‘What kind of spiritual method is this? It actually carries a few percent of the power of heaven. The island owner really has more and more tricks when he goes out this time. ’

…

In the other courtyard, Wei Zhong asked about the changes that had taken place in Luohe Mansion in the more than ten years since he left.

"Because the Zhigang Palace has generally been moved to Yunzhou City, there is only a small branch sect left on the original site of Luohe Mansion, which is guarded by a monk in the early stage of forming pills, and there are even fewer disciples..."

"After the Jinguang Pavilion was relocated to Zhigang Palace, it began to develop vigorously and regained the title of the number one alchemy sect in the local area..."

…

"There is also Taoist friend Xu Xuan who also left Luohe Mansion a few years ago. It is said that he has returned to the family and is enjoying his life in peace..."

"I didn't expect that only more than ten years have passed, and fewer and fewer Taoist friends are familiar to Luohe Mansion."

Wei Zhong sighed.

In total, the only people Wei Zhongchang in Luohe Mansion dealt with were Yunjilou where Xuxuan lived, Zhigang Palace where Song Linfang lived, and the Ling family.

Now, Wei Zhong has only a few acquaintances in Luohe Mansion.

‘When I wait for Ningying in the future, I’m afraid I’ll have to leave this place too. ’

The only fourth-level spiritual land in Luohe Mansion is occupied by Tantai Forest. The cave in Wei Zhong's hands is only three-level and cannot support Nascent Soul cultivation. In order to continue to improve his cultivation, Wei Zhong still needs to find a fourth-level spiritual land. Spiritual place.

After much thought, only Yunji Chamber of Commerce was the best choice.

‘Let’s talk about it later! ’

After a few days of cocooning with Ling Ziwei and Xie Linghua, Wei Zhong went into deep seclusion again.

The earthly spiritual roots are already established. If you don't practice well, this qualification will be wasted.

After five years of deep retreat, Wei Zhongxiu successfully entered the late stage of pill formation.

[Cultivation: Late stage of pill formation (seventh level, 2%)]

【Shouyuan: 447/600】

The upper limit of lifespan was increased again, by sixty years, reaching the upper limit of six hundred lifespan in the late stage of pill formation.

‘If one can step into the Nascent Soul realm, this upper limit will be raised to a thousand years.

‘Thousands of years have exceeded the existence time of many Jiedan sects. Although it cannot be said to live as long as heaven, for Qi refining or foundation-building monks, it is also a living fossil in the world of practice. ’

After briefly leaving the cultivation state, Wei Zhong went to the bamboo forest in the cave to check the growth of the golden thunder bamboo and found that the various spiritual plant growth-promoting methods he had applied before had taken effect.

At least most of the golden thunder bamboo, which was used as an auxiliary plant, did not show any signs of age regression.

The growth of the main golden thunder bamboo was also increasingly stable. Wei Zhong guessed that it would take another thirty years for it to successfully enter the level of a ten-thousand-year spiritual plant.

By then, he could take the bamboo to refine an umbrella.

With Wei Zhong's current level of refining, it was not difficult to refine a fourth-grade low-grade colorful golden bamboo umbrella, and as time went by, Wei Zhong's refining proficiency would become higher and higher.

It was not impossible to try to refine it into a fourth-grade middle-grade one.

Nodding with satisfaction, Wei Zhong wanted to return to the courtyard to start practicing.

But a letter talisman lit up in the cave, and Wei Zhong stepped out of the cave and grabbed it in his hand.

Ling Ziwei's voice rang out from it.

"Golden Light Pavilion wants a Nascent Soul magic weapon?"

Wei Zhong's identity as a fourth-level weapon refiner has long been known to everyone in Yunzhou City. Luohe Prefecture is adjacent to this city, so it is not surprising that the Golden Light Pavilion can find out this news.

After thinking for a while, considering that Qingbo Island had a lot of business dealings with it before, Wei Zhong came out of retreat and met Jia Pingjian, the Pavilion Master, who was waiting on Ling Island.

When the other party saw Wei Zhong appear, he looked humble:

"Hello, Master Wei!"

Then there was a boast that Wei Zhong was tired of hearing.

"If you have any needs for refining weapons, just say it directly, no need to beat around the bush."

The latter stopped talking, with an embarrassed look on his face, and said with a bow:

"I have heard of Master Wei's name as a fourth-level weapon refiner, and this time I came here specifically to ask for a fourth-level magic weapon."

Wei Zhong took the spiritual tea on the table and took two sips:

"Take out the spiritual material and let me see it, and tell me what you want."

The other party took out a piece of dark gold metal, and Wei Zhong took it and looked at it carefully.

Wei Zhong, who had been in the weapon hall of Yunji Chamber of Commerce for many years, recognized this kind of spiritual material after screening.

"Earth Nightmare Gold, it is indeed a fourth-level spiritual material. Are you going to make a magic sword?"

This spiritual material contains evil spirits and is of the metal element, which is most suitable for refining into an attack and killing weapon.

"Master Wei has a keen eye. I want a two-foot-long sword..."

After he detailed the requirements for the magic sword, Wei Zhong nodded:

"No problem, the difficulty of refining this sword is not high, and it is still within my ability.

"Next, we should talk about the reward!"

There are not many fourth-level weapon refiners in Yunzhou, and there is only Wei Zhong in Luohe Prefecture. Naturally, the fee will not be cheap.

"Don't want low-quality spiritual stones. What price can you Jinguang Pavilion offer? "

Jia Pingjian looked calm, and he was obviously prepared for a heavy loss.

After handing a storage bag to Wei Zhong, he quietly waited for the reply from the weapon master.

There were not many things in the storage bag, only two items, but these two items met Wei Zhong's psychological expectations.
