Chapter 69 Refining
"Of course there is, but the price is so high..."
The cultivators in the formation shop looked at the master and apprentice. The first-level, ninth-grade formation was also the treasure of their formation shop. There were only three of them. One of the three just met Wu Tao's requirements.
However, the price was too expensive, and even the ninth-level casual cultivators were not very willing to buy it.
After all, generally speaking, it was not cost-effective for them to buy such an expensive formation with the Five Springs Mountain protecting the safety of casual cultivators. Therefore, the three first-level, ninth-grade formations had been in the store for more than ten years, and none of them had been sold.
If they hadn't been sold, they were the treasure of the store.
Nothing wrong with that.
Therefore, based on this common perception, the cultivators in the formation shop felt that Chen Shan and Wu Tao would not be so foolish as to buy a first-order, ninth-level formation...
Chen Shan knew what the other party was thinking at a glance. He roughly knew the value of a first-order, ninth-level formation. With his life savings, he could only afford one. But for the sake of safety, he would die, as his life span was coming to an end, but Wu Tao and Chen Yao could not die. Even if they spent all their family assets, they had to buy one. Therefore, he said seriously: "Daoyou, please take out the formation and let us see it. We will definitely buy it."
The cultivator smiled when he saw him say this, and said: "Okay, follow me."
After that, the cultivator in the formation shop took them to a quiet and elegant tea room, and After asking someone to brew spiritual tea and put spiritual fruits on the table, he said to Wu Tao and Chen Shan, "Fellow Daoists, please wait a moment. The level of the formation is too high. It is our treasure and is not in the store. We need to transfer it from somewhere else. Please drink some spiritual tea and eat some spiritual fruits. Wait for me for half an hour."
Seeing this, Wu Tao and Chen Shan could only drink spiritual tea and eat spiritual fruits and wait.
This spiritual fruit is just a low-level spiritual fruit with low spiritual energy content, but it is a spiritual fruit after all, and it has spiritual energy. Wu Tao is a person who is used to hard times, so he doesn't waste it. He simply eats all the spiritual fruit and refines the spiritual energy in it.
Half an hour later, the cultivator from the formation store came back, holding a purple wooden box, and said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. The formation has been taken. "
As he said this, he placed the rosewood box on the coffee table, opened it, and introduced it to Chen Shan and Wu Tao, the master and apprentice: "This formation is called the Three-Polarity Water and Fire Sword Formation, a first-order, nine-level formation that can kill and trap the enemy. It consists of a formation plate and twenty-seven formation flags. This formation contains a trap formation, a water-covering formation, two killing formations, a fire rain formation, and a three-star sword formation..."
"It is a combination of trapping and killing. If a person at the ninth level of Qi Refining enters this formation, he will definitely die. Of course, this formation is powerful, but whether it can fully unleash the power of the formation depends on the cultivation of the person holding the formation. "
In the end, the cultivator in the formation store still took out a layer of insurance. Otherwise, if you let a person at the early stage of Qi Refining hold the formation and can't kill the ninth level of Qi Refining, he will come to the store to make trouble with the formation. That's not allowed.
Wu Tao watched the cultivator in the formation store introduce the formation in detail. After the introduction, he looked at his master Chen Shan. Chen Shan gave him a slight eye signal, obviously very satisfied with this formation, so he asked: "I wonder how much it costs? "
The cultivator in the formation shop stretched out a palm and added three fingers.
Although they had already estimated the price, after confirming the price at this time, Wu Tao and Chen Shan looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
Eight hundred middle-grade spirit stones.
You know, a first-grade level nine magic weapon only costs a little over two hundred middle-grade spirit stones.
"Too expensive!" Chen Shan couldn't help but say.
"Hey, fellow Daoist, I don't like what you said." The cultivator in the formation shop showed a trace of difficulty on his face, "This price is already affordable, and this level nine killing formation is only available in our store, not in other stores. Fellow Daoist knows that the highest formation master among the casual cultivators in the entire West City is only a first-grade level six formation master. "
"This formation was refined by the formation master Liang of Wuquan Mountain for half a month. This price is already very favorable. ”
This is the truth, and this is the fact, but Chen Shan and Wu Tao still think it is expensive, but there is no way, the robbery cultivator is watching covetously, although he may not rob their magic weapon shop, but even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, he still has to be cautious.
Wu Tao looked at Chen Shan, who had only seventy medium-grade spirit stones on him.
Chen Shan finally gritted his teeth, for the safety of Wu Tao and A Yao, no matter how expensive it is, it is worth it. He took out the spirit stones from the spirit stone bag, and the money and goods were paid.
"Two Taoist friends, take care."
The faces of the immortal cultivators in the formation shop were blooming like daisies.
Walking out of the formation shop, Chen Shan couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder the formation master looks down on everyone except himself in the four arts of cultivation."
Wu Tao had never heard of this statement, and asked curiously: "Master, what do you mean?"
Chen Shan said: "In the four arts of cultivation, the weapon refiner looks down on the talisman master, the alchemist looks down on the weapon refiner, and the formation master looks down on all three. The formation is the most difficult to learn among the four arts of cultivating immortals, but once you get started, it is also the most profitable. "
Wu Tao suddenly realized: "So that's it, what about the talisman master, he must have someone to despise, right? Otherwise it would be too aggrieved. Could it be a spiritual plant husband?"
Chen Shan laughed and said: "Spirit plant husband? In the eyes of the talisman master, he is not even a human being. Wouldn't it be degrading to despise the spiritual plant husband?"
After that, he no longer mentioned this topic, but said: "The cost of the spiritual material of this formation is only a little over 100 middle-grade spiritual stones, and the price is 800 middle-grade spiritual stones, and the direct profit is 700 middle-grade spiritual stones. "
"Ah, but there is no way. Formation masters value inheritance and talent the most. Look at the level of those of us in Xiwai City who practice the four arts of immortal cultivation. There is a first-level ninth-grade talisman master, two first-level eighth-grade weapon refiners, two first-level seventh-grade alchemists, and a first-level sixth-grade formation master. This shows how difficult it is to practice the four arts."
When I got home, Chen Yao came up to me: "Dad, senior brother, you are back. Did you buy the formation?"
Chen Shan and Wu Tao sat down. Wu Tao poured tea for the master. Chen Shan took the rosewood box out of the storage bag, put it on the table, and said: "I bought it."
Chen Yao looked curious He opened the box and stroked the array plate and array flag on it: "So this is the first-order, ninth-level array, Dad, how much is it?"
"Eight hundred middle-grade spirit stones."
"Eight hundred?" Chen Yao widened her eyes and exclaimed: "It makes more money than the robbery cultivation?"
Wu Tao laughed and said: "Junior sister Yao, what you said is true. If the four arts of cultivating immortals are not more profitable than the robbery cultivation, who would want to learn it? It's better to just rob."
Chen Yao calmed down and asked: "Dad, you won't spend all my dowry, right?"
Chen Shan said: "When you find a Taoist partner in the future, this array will be your dowry."
"That's fine." Chen Yao smiled happily.
Chen Shan was too lazy to pay attention to this silly girl. He looked at Wu Tao and said, "Wu Tao, take it and refine it quickly."
Wu Tao was a little surprised. He was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, while his master Chen Shan was at the sixth level. He was the best candidate to refine this formation: "Master, it's better for you to refine it."
Chen Shan shook his head and said cryptically, "Wu Tao, you should refine it. Otherwise, I will have to erase the mark and give it to you later, which is troublesome."
When Wu Tao heard this, he immediately understood what Chen Shan meant. His life span was about to end, and his cultivation at the sixth level of Qi Refining was greatly reduced. It was indeed better for him to refine it himself. Thinking of this, his heart was gloomy, but he didn't show it on his face. He said, "Then listen to Master."
Chen Yao was anxious: "Dad, didn't you say you would give it to me as a dowry? Why did you refine it for my senior brother..."
As she spoke, her little face was inexplicably hot, and her voice became smaller and smaller.
"Wu Tao, let's go to the weapon refining room."
"Yes, Master."
Looking at the backs of her father and senior brother leaving, Chen Yao held her cheeks, dispelling the unrealistic thoughts in her mind, and shook her head fiercely: "No, no... Although senior brother is very good to me... but..."
"Oh, so annoying!"
