Chapter 170 Beast Tide Migration
After getting the recipe, Lu Liang took Qin Ming to visit several shops and bought several other auxiliary materials for alchemy.
"The resources in this core area are really richer than those outside." Qin Ming chatted with Lu Liang while walking.
Lu Liang smiled calmly and said, "Of course, the high-quality products of the four countries are all circulated here. Today, I took Qin Daoyou to visit only a small part."
"Qin Daoyou can come often in the future. Every once in a while, there will be exchanges between foundation-building cultivators from various countries in the core area."
After the matter was done, Lu Liang invited Qin Ming to visit his house.
Qin Ming couldn't resist and had to agree.
Lu Liang's practice residence is in the high-end residential area of the core area. Although it is not as good as the cave on Canghai Peak, it is also rich in spiritual energy.
He took Qin Ming through the alleys of the residential area and came to a quiet villa with a large area.
It is many times better than the houses in the inner and outer cities.
"Fellow Daoist Lu is indeed a senior steward of Canghai Xiancheng. The environment here is really good. It should have a second-grade upper-grade spiritual vein environment, right?" Qin Ming looked around his mansion and asked casually.
Lu Liang said with a little complacency: "Fellow Daoist Qin, this villa was also given to me by the city lord when I was promoted."
After entering the courtyard, Lu Liang personally brewed a pot of spiritual tea for Qin Ming, and ordered the servants to prepare a table of wine and food, all of which were special delicacies in this area.
Halfway through the two of them eating, Lu Liang seemed to have something to say. He took out a jade box from his arms and put it in front of Qin Ming, "Fellow Daoist Qin, take a look at this."
Fellow Daoist Qin took the jade box and opened it. He was surprised and said: "Second-grade middle-grade demon pill, or wind attribute?"
"Lu has an unwelcome request. I wonder if fellow Daoist Qin can agree?" Lu Liang asked a little embarrassedly.
Qin Ming frowned when he heard this, "Could it be that Fellow Daoist Lu wants me to use this demon pill to refine pills?"
"Hehe! That's right, but I want Fellow Daoist Qin to refine the foundation-building pill." Lu Liang explained, and then he took out a pill recipe and handed it to Qin Ming.
Qin Ming looked at the pill recipe in his hand and couldn't help but said in surprise: "The recipe for refining the foundation-building pill from the demon pill?"
"Fellow Daoist Lu, are you refining the foundation-building pill for the younger generation?"
Lu Liang sighed and said: "Hey! Fellow Daoist Qin is right. I have a beloved disciple with decent aptitude. Now she has cultivated to the perfection of the Qi training stage for several years, but she has not been able to break through because she has no foundation-building pill."
"She herself is also in order to accumulate resources, and she is willing to take risks. She follows the demon hunting team of the fairy city and runs to the beast-singing mountains every few days. I can't stop her."
"I am not forced to do so. Now I have got the recipe and gathered all the spiritual materials. "
"My original plan was to ask Master Sun Jinnian to help me refine it."
"However, now that Fellow Daoist Qin is here, I will just ask you for help."
"As for the conditions for the help, this recipe will belong to Fellow Daoist Qin. In addition, if the foundation-building pill is successfully refined, I will only take half, and the rest will also belong to Fellow Daoist Qin."
"Fellow Daoist Qin, you see."
After listening to Lu Liang's words, Qin Ming thought about it for a while. Since the materials and recipes were provided by the other party, he could get a recipe and foundation-building pill for free.
That's not a bad idea.
So Qin Ming nodded and agreed: "Fellow Daoist Lu loves his disciples very much. I can promise to help you refine this matter."
"Really? That's great, Fellow Daoist Qin!"
"I don't need to thank you for your kindness. If you need me, Lu Liang, in the future, just ask." Lu Liang stood up and saluted Qin Ming.
Qin Ming was also caught off guard by this. "You don't have to do this, Fellow Daoist Lu. We just need to get what we need. I happen to be quite interested in this recipe."
"It's just that I have never used demon pills to refine foundation-building pills before. I have to explain the situation to Fellow Daoist Lu in advance."
"Ah? Then this is the first time."
Lv Liang's face twitched when he heard this. Other materials were easy to deal with, but there was only one demon pill of the second stage. If he failed, then it would be a disaster.
While Lu Liang was hesitating, a beautiful female cultivator came in from outside. She was full of energy and vigor. She was about 21 or 22 years old. She rushed into the room with excitement.
"Master, I'm back, look what I got!"
"Wow! It smells so good!"
"Hmph! Master, you're secretly eating meat while I'm away, right?! What delicious food are you preparing?"
Lü Liang saw her carefree appearance, completely without the reserve of a girl, and couldn't help blushing, and shouted angrily: "What are you making a fuss about? You're so old, how can you behave like this!"
"Don't you see there's a guest?"
The woman was holding something in her hand, and looked towards the room, and then she realized that Qin Ming was there, and couldn't help sticking out her tongue, bowing to him and saying: "So there's a senior guest, I'm sorry for being rude."
"No problem." Qin Ming smiled and didn't care.
Lv Liang then turned to Qin Ming and introduced him: "Fellow Daoist Qin, please excuse me. This is my disciple, Lv Wanjun, who I adopted since childhood."
Then Lv Liang glared at his beloved disciple again, "Come and meet your senior Qin Ming!"
"I took great pains to ask fellow Daoist Qin to help you refine the foundation-building pill, but you keep giving me troubles all day long."
Lv Wanjun's clever eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said excitedly: "Wanjun meets Senior Qin!"
She had naturally heard of Qin Ming's name, and she admired this master of both spiritual plant and pill art who was born as a casual cultivator.
"Haha! No need to be polite." Qin Ming said with a smile, and then took out a bottle of Qi training period solidifying and nourishing elixir, who knows where he got it from in the storage bag of a dead ghost, and handed it to Lv Wanjun as a gift.
Lv Wanjun's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly took the jade bottle and thanked Qin Ming with great joy: "Thank you, Senior Qin, for the elixir!"
"You're welcome." Qin Ming smiled slightly.
Lv Liang sighed and said: "Hey! I came to ask for help from Fellow Daoist Qin, how can I let you spend money?"
"It's just a little thought, not worth mentioning, Fellow Daoist Lu, don't care." Qin Ming said with a smile.
"Master, look at what this is?" Lv Wanjun stretched out her white hand in front of the two people, and then spread it.
I saw a spherical object the size of an egg, lying quietly in her palm.
"Second-level initial demon pill!" Lv Liang couldn't help but screamed, and even Qin Ming next to him showed a puzzled look.
If this demon pill appeared in the hands of a cultivator in the foundation-building stage, it would be quite normal.
But Lu Wanjun had only reached the perfect stage of Qi training, which was a bit unbelievable.
"Where did you get it from?" Lu Liang frowned and asked seriously.
Seeing that her master was serious, Lu Wanjun immediately shrank her neck and whispered sadly: "Master, my demon hunting team accidentally encountered a seriously injured and dying scaled fire lizard on the outskirts of the Beast-Screaming Mountains. After working together to kill it, an internal conflict broke out in the team. I took advantage of the opportunity and secretly took the fire lizard's demon pill and ran back."
"If it weren't for the few life-saving magic tools and talismans given by the master, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come back."
Lu Wanjun's words made the two secretly shocked. This little girl is really brave.
"Daoyou Lu, your beloved disciple is really lucky!" Qin Ming laughed.
Lv Liang then said to Qin Ming: "Now that we have two demon pills, it's like a double insurance. Then please ask Fellow Daoist Qin to start refining!"
Qin Ming nodded.
"By the way, Wanjun, how come there is a dying second-level demon outside the Shouming Mountains?" Lv Liang suddenly remembered something and asked in confusion.
Lv Wanjun heard this and replied seriously: "There are indeed some abnormalities in the Shouming Mountains in recent times. Many demon beasts have left their original territory and migrated out."
"Many demon hunting teams have made great gains."
"There are also many teams that have encountered a large number of demon beasts, and their whereabouts are still unknown."
She carefully recounted what she saw and heard in the Shouming Mountains, and then looked at the two foundation-building monks.
"The monsters in the Shouming Mountains have begun to migrate outward on a large scale?!"
Lü Liang's expression suddenly became a little solemn. "This kind of situation has also happened in the history of the Immortal City. One is to seek revenge like the double-pupiled demon ape, and the other is that a new third-level demon king is born in the depths of the mountains, driving other monsters to expand their territory."
"No matter which situation it is, I'm afraid there will be a new beast tide coming." As an old man in Canghai Immortal City, Lu Liang, combined with the frequent movements of monsters before, it is not difficult to guess the specific reason.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, if it is the second situation, it means that the scale of this beast tide will be dozens of times larger than the last time. Not only the Immortal City, but even the Lingqi Islands will be within its impact range. Be prepared early!"
In the history of the four countries in the Southern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation World, there have been situations where they were hit by beast tides and ravaged one side.
The market and pass built near the Shouming Mountains originally had the function of blocking monsters.
As the "Canghai Immortal City" at the junction of the four countries, it is even more important. Once the war breaks out, the Immortal City will definitely bear the brunt.
"However, as the first holy land of scattered cultivators, Canghai Immortal City has experienced hundreds of large and small beast tide attacks over the past few hundred years."
"There has never been an example of being breached."
Qin Ming also frowned, but he was relieved to hear what Lu Liang said.
He had seen that the demon ape led an overwhelming army of monsters to sweep across Qianye Spirit Island, and almost no grass grew wherever it passed.
If the scale of this beast tide is larger than the last time, it must be treated with caution.
'It seems that the demon ape beast tide is probably just an appetizer, and the bigger ones are still to come.'
Even his Wangyue Island has to consider strengthening its defenses.
"Okay, in this case, I will refine the foundation-building pill for fellow Daoist Lu now." Qin Ming felt that the situation was a bit urgent. After finishing the work, he had to return to Wangyue Island immediately.
Hearing this, Lu Liang showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and asked uncertainly: "Fellow Daoist Qin, how about you stay here for a while longer, study the recipe more and then start refining?"
Because it had only been less than half a quarter of an hour since he gave Qin Ming the recipe
Qin Ming just glanced at the recipe carelessly. By the way, are all alchemy masters so casual?
Lu Liang was immediately confused. In order to collect the spiritual materials needed to refine the foundation-building pill, he, who was in the middle stage of the foundation-building stage, had also spent a lot of money, almost spending most of his savings.
If he failed to refine two second-level demon pills in a row, he would have no place to cry.
