Chapter 607 Going Out to Sea
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, another three years had passed.
In these few years, Lingyun Sect had not had any particularly memorable events, so Li Qing had been practicing meditation in the cave.
However, in such hard practice, Li Qing's cultivation was still at the middle stage of Jindan, and he had not yet touched the threshold of the late stage of Jindan.
At this level, if he wanted to achieve rapid progress, he could only rely on some natural treasures or special elixirs.
Otherwise, if he just practiced meditation step by step, it would be difficult to make great progress in ten or thirty years, let alone three years.
The practice of Jindan stage is as difficult as ascending to heaven!
"The harvest is very small. If I just rely on such hard meditation, how long will it take to break through to the late stage of Jindan!"
Li Qing sighed lightly and slowly woke up from the deep meditation.
He himself was fine. It was okay if his practice progressed slowly. Anyway, his life span was extremely long, and he could always get through it slowly.
But now he is the ancestor of a sect, a pillar of existence.
Now Lingyun Sect controls the entire Qingling Region. Every year, they don't have to do anything, and a large amount of immortal cultivation resources are supplied. It can be said that it is as noble as it can be.
However, without a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, such a status will eventually be a little unstable.
Through careful meditation and hard practice in the past few years, Li Qing clearly sensed that the spiritual energy of this world is now becoming more rich and vigorous.
The cultivation environment in Qingling Region is getting better and better, and is developing towards the level of the Great Wilderness Region.
This is indeed a good thing, but Li Qing has always been a little worried about it.
"The competition in the Great Wilderness Region in the south is so fierce. If those demon sects know that the world in this region is becoming more and more suitable for cultivation, there will be disasters in the future."
If there is a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage in the sect, it will be much more reassuring.
Unfortunately, it is not so easy to condense the infant.
In the past few years, not only has his cultivation level not made much progress, but the cultivation level of several other Jindan Zhenren in the sect has also progressed very slowly.
Although it is not to the point of standing still, no one has been promoted to a higher level in the past few years.
"It's a pity that there is no third-level alchemist in the sect, otherwise this recipe would be of some use."
As he said this, Li Qing took out a roll of recipes from the storage bag.
Yangling Pill:
Main medicine: third-level monster inner pill, five-hundred-year-old Tianyuan flower, Biyue root,
Auxiliary medicine: hundred-year-old purple blood ginseng juice, erosion spirit fruit essence
This recipe is still a good thing he searched for in the library of the Blood Lotus Sect in the Polar Night World. If this pill can be refined, the practice of the Jindan period can be much faster.
This is a third-level recipe. Ordinary alchemists have no way to start refining it. The success rate is terribly low, and the spiritual medicine is wasted for no reason.
"And the thousand-year-old dragon blood vine can only play its greatest role if it is refined into a dragon pill, which also requires a trustworthy alchemist!"
Li Qing sighed lightly, feeling that there were too few talents in the sect.
At present, there is Fu Xuan Zhenren in the talisman field, and he himself in the weapon refining field, but there are no suitable talents in the two fields of pill formation.
It just so happens that the two fields of pill formation are the most critical, especially the formation field. Now Lingyun Sect does not have a suitable sect protection formation!
That is to say, there are no external enemies now. If the sect is really coveted by thieves in the future, this lack of formation is indeed a huge disadvantage.
Just when Li Qing was thinking hard, a strong spiritual energy fluctuation suddenly surged under his spiritual peak.
Li Qing was slightly startled, but soon seemed to remember something and invested his consciousness.
"Haha, this girl has been dragging it for so long, and finally started to build a foundation."
Yes, the movement just now was caused by Li Yuhuan starting to impact the foundation.
Three years after entering the sect, Li Qing provided her with a lot of elixirs, and Li Yuhuan finally cultivated to the tenth level of the Qi Refining Stage.
In order to ensure that she could build a foundation safely, she did not take the foundation-building pill that she won in the inner sect competition, and only started to strive for the foundation-building stage today.
For a thunder spirit root, this cultivation speed is not really fast. Even the disciples who entered the inner sect with Li Yuhuan have already successfully built their foundations before her.
"The breath is condensed, and the foundation is extremely deep. This time the foundation should be a sure thing."
Li Qing saw the strength of his apprentice at a glance. With a foundation-building pill, there should be no too many problems in building the foundation this time.
Sure enough, after about half a day, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth suddenly shrank, and then turned into a cyclone, which was completely immersed in Li Yuhuan's body.
Then a condensed breath swept out, which was exactly the posture that only a cultivator in the foundation-building stage could have.
"Hahaha, it's successful! Master, I succeeded in building my foundation!"
Li Yuhuan rushed out of the cave in surprise and flew directly to the top of the spiritual peak.
Knowing that his disciple was coming to share his joy, Li Qing naturally released the restrictions in front of his cave and let Li Yuhuan run in.
"Master! I succeeded in building my foundation!"
Li Yuhuan ran to Li Qing with a happy expression and looked at Li Qing with an expression asking for praise.
"Not bad, but the road of cultivation is a long one, and building the foundation is just the beginning."
"But you are so complacent after achieving some achievements, this mentality is not desirable!"
Li Qing pretended to be stern and scolded a few times, but in his heart he was satisfied with his disciple.
As soon as these words came out, Li Yuhuan's expression suddenly calmed down.
Seeing this, Li Qing couldn't help but laugh and shook his head: "Okay, okay, you are so wronged just because I said a few words to you."
"I have two bottles of Ziyang Pills left over from the past. You can take them back and eat them. Remember to lay a good foundation and don't be greedy for merit and rush forward. The most important thing in the foundation-building period is to accumulate and then release. Only in this way can the hope of forming a pill in the future be great enough."
"In addition, since you have successfully built your foundation, remember to go to the sect's Transmission Hall to pick up a copy of the Thunder Method Divine Power to practice."
Li Yuhuan then smiled. She took the pill from Li Qing and then said with a smile:
"I know, Master!"
After that, Li Yuhuan ran out of Li Qing's cave in a hurry and flew to the Transmission Hall of Lingyun Sect impatiently.
After watching Li Yuhuan leave his cave, Li Qing slowly stood up from the mat.
In his cave, there is a very secret dark room.
In the dark room, a small medicinal field dug into the shape of a pond is located in the center, but no spiritual medicine is planted in this medicinal field, only a blood-red lotus seed is rooted in the soil.
"It has been three years, and it still hasn't sprouted. It seems that this blood lotus seed really needs blood essence to serve as nutrients to grow!"
Li Qing's eyes flickered slightly, and he had made a decision.
On the wall of the dark room, there are three golden cocoons hanging upside down, and the silk of the cocoons emits golden fluorescence, which is extremely extraordinary.
"These three little guys have received all the benefits. They have eaten so much spiritual gold in the sect, and finally started to cocoon and transform."
Li Qing looked at the cocoons made by the three golden silkworms with satisfaction. When they break out of the cocoons, the three little golden silkworms should be able to become existences comparable to second-level monsters.
However, there is still a long way to go before it can transform into a six-winged golden moth.
Fortunately, the Lingyun Sect is now a big family, and it is not difficult to find exotic spiritual gold.
If the power of a sect is used to support them, the three little golden silkworms will have a good chance of transforming into real powerful monster insects, six-winged golden moths!
In another corner of the dark room, a piece of dead vine with a little vitality was quietly hanging on the wall.
This is the treasure that Li Qing got from the treasure house of the Ghost Sword Sect. After Li Qing watered it with the seven-color life essence, this vine regained a little vitality, but it still did not seem to continue to grow.
He was too lazy to pay too much attention to this.
After confirming the situation in the dark room with his own eyes, Li Qing did not stay and flew out of the cave directly.
Lingyun Sect, Alchemy Hall
"Greetings, Grandmaster Wuji!"
"Greetings, Uncle Wuji!"
In the alchemy hall filled with the strong aroma of elixirs, all elders and disciples put down their work and saluted Li Qing.
"Haha, no need to be polite, just do whatever you need to do." Li Qing smiled and glanced around.
Now there are many new faces in the alchemy hall, many of whom are disciples who joined from the last Ascension Conference.
Jiang Han, who had defeated Li Yuhuan many times before, also succeeded in building his foundation. He is now an alchemy elder in the alchemy hall.
Li Qing was quite impressed by this person.
Jiang Han not only has outstanding combat power, but also his own alchemy skills are quite extraordinary. I think he had some experience in his early years.
Li Qing didn't want to explore this. It's normal for cultivators to have some secrets of their own.
"Jiang Han!"
"Yes, Uncle Wuji, what's the matter with you coming to the Alchemy Hall this time?" Jiang Han respectfully clasped his fists towards Li Qing.
"Haha, it's nothing serious. Help me see if there are any of these spiritual medicines in the Alchemy Hall now. I have other uses for them."
As he spoke, Li Qing listed a bunch of spiritual medicines, among which were several main and auxiliary medicines needed to refine the Yangling Pill.
The reason for doing this is not because he doesn't trust the elders of the Alchemy Hall, but because it is a matter of great importance.
After all, a pill formula that can quickly improve the mana of a cultivator in the Jindan stage is a very valuable existence even if it is placed in the Great Wilderness. This is the foundation of an immortal sect.
If Lingyun Sect is exposed to have such a pill formula at will, it will only bring disaster to the sect, so if it can be concealed, it is naturally better to conceal it.
"Let me see."
"Well, there are purple blood ginseng and erosion fruit. Someone picked Qingxin grass and Biyue root in a small secret realm last year."
"It's the five-hundred-year-old Tianyuan flower. Such spiritual medicine is really rare. Not to mention the alchemy hall of my Lingyun Sect, it's probably hard to find such a rare spiritual medicine in the entire Qingling Region."
"It is rumored that Tianyuan flower, like Rongyuan fruit, can only be produced in some secret realms with unique environments!"
Jiang Han replied a little nervously.
Hearing this, Li Qing was not too disappointed.
It is naturally not that easy to refine Yangling Pills. He was even prepared for the lack of most spiritual medicines in the sect.
The current result only requires finding Tianyuan flowers of sufficient age, which is actually quite good.
Li Qing nodded and said, "Is that so? Then the next task of the Alchemy Hall is to collect these spiritual medicines. If there is any news about Tianyuan Flower, notify me immediately!"
"Yes, Uncle Wuji!" Jiang Han clasped his fists and tactfully did not ask Li Qing what he wanted to do with these spiritual medicines.
After explaining these things, Li Qing left the Alchemy Hall in a good mood.
"Next, we only need to get the inner elixir of the third-level monster and the Tianyuan flower, and we can gather the spiritual medicine for the Yangling Pill!"
"Although I don't know where to find an alchemist, it is at least a good progress."
At present, Li Qing plans to go out to sea to find some third-level sea beasts to hunt.
First, collect the inner elixir of the third-level monster to refine the Yangling Pill.
Second, collect the essence and blood of the monster to cultivate the strange blood lotus seed in Li Qing's cave.
Although it is not known what the blood lotus seed will do after it is planted, Li Qing always feels that this thing is very useful.
In the process of hunting monsters, it is not a troublesome thing to collect some essence and blood.
"That blood lotus seed was the foundation of the Blood Lotus Sect. Yue Qiusheng used it to become much stronger."
"After the blood lotus seed was brought back to the spiritual world, it also underwent a transformation, absorbing a large amount of spiritual energy, and its quality evolved more than a little bit!"
"If it is amplified again with the seven-colored life essence condensed by the magic of transformation, perhaps the quality will become stronger."
"If it is cultivated again at that time, this blood lotus will be quite extraordinary."
Li Qing narrowed his eyes, and a lot of expectations arose in his heart.
In this way, with this expectation, Li Qing flew towards the boundless sea east of Lingyun Sect at a very fast speed.
Hua La La!
The sea was turbulent, and layers of more than ten meters high waves rose up, constantly hitting the reefs on the shore.
The sea breeze in the sky seemed to never stop, one after another, with great wind force.
If mortals wanted to go out to sea to fish here, they would definitely be blown away with their boats.
In addition, there are countless dangerous and ferocious sea beasts living in this deep seabed.
Therefore, only cultivators can appear in the boundless sea, and mortals have no living space.
In the sky, a tall figure flew in the air, ignoring the strong wind and huge waves, and flew directly into the depths of the boundless sea.
This person is Li Qing who went out to sea to find sea beasts!
"It's interesting. The spiritual energy above the sea surface is gradually becoming thinner, while the spiritual energy in the seabed is extremely abundant."
"No wonder this boundless sea is also called a great dead end in Qingling Domain. If you want to cross the sea, you will soon run out of mana if you rely on mana to maintain flight!"
Li Qing looked at the boundless sea around him and sighed.
At this moment, a burst of bubbles suddenly appeared on the sea surface not far away.
"Hmm?"
