Chapter 145.
Soon, Fairy Lian Yu returned.
Qian Xiao Yue’s head was still buzzing even as she left.
It was really because tan san had given her too much of a shock.
What was given, was also too much.
Just by silently estimating, she realized that the value of these spirit talismans combined was at least 30,000 lower grade spirit stones …… In reality, in her opinion, what was heavier was still this friendship.
It also filled her with joy and satisfaction.
On the contrary, tan san was in a very calm mood.
After all, these spirit talismans, all of which he had drawn himself, actually cost very little.
As for the sealing spells? It was also all his own mastery of lightning, he would have needed to cast spells every day less to practice, just go with the flow, it was nothing at all.
“Immortal cultivation, this is the thorns and thistles, against the heavens, need to constantly work hard, consume time and countless energy things, and where is so much time, children’s love?”
tan san stood in place and contemplated for a while before his mind completely calmed down.
Then, he came to the courtyard and started his daily spell casting.
Then, only then did he come back to the empty spiritual field, and with a flip of his hand, ten more Thunder Spirit Rice appeared in his hand.
These Thunder Spirit Rice were the third generation that he had cultivated and selected from the best.
Each one was crystal clear, full of grains, and contained far more spiritual energy and vitality than before.
Even the head, also than before the first generation of Lei Ling rice, a big circle.
Then, tan san once again drew some spiritual spring water to soak, and even more to catalyze the birth of the art.
After the shoots grew, he quickly planted them.
After several rounds of using the Wheel of the Year Technique, followed by the Thousand Thunder Flash and the Spirit Rain Technique, a grain of Thunder Spirit Rice thrived and grew.
“Hm?
These few ……”
Suddenly, tan san’s heart moved slightly.
After cultivating the Thunder Spirit Rice to maturity once more, he picked these few Thunder Spirit Rice separately.
“First grade high grade Spirit Rice.
Finally advanced to break the limit.
From a Grade One Middle Grade Spirit Rice, it has advanced to a Grade One High Grade.”
tan san carefully observed these Thunder Spirit Rice that were clearly larger and fuller than the other grains.
In particular, the vitality and spiritual energy contained within it was very abundant, and vaguely, there were even hints of thunder and lightning power, pulsating within it.
First grade high grade Thunder Spirit Rice.
Finally planted.
Although the breakdown, only five grains, reached the first grade high grade level.
But it was a good start.
He believed that if he replanted these five Thunder Spirit Rice seeds, he would definitely harvest more First Grade High Grade Spirit Rice.
The next day.
tan san smoothly planted those five First Grade High Grade Thunder Spirit Rice Seeds.
Three hours later.
tan san couldn’t help but have a small smile on his face as he looked at the Spirit Rice hanging above the Thunder Spirit Rice Tree.
“Sure enough.
After the Thunder Spirit Rice grade was raised, it was also much more difficult to plant.
The original half year old Thunder Spirit Rice Tree was cultivated for a full year and a half this time before it grew Spirit Rice.
And the spiritual rice that grows out, not all of them are first grade high grade spiritual rice, most of them, in fact, are still first grade medium grade, and the ones that really belong to first grade high grade Thunder Spirit Rice are only about 30%.”
tan san looked at this Thunder Spirit Rice in front of him, silently comparing them, and was not disappointed in his heart.
This was a very normal thing.
The growth of any spirit plant, as the grade rises, the spiritual qi required for its growth, the environment, and the time required for cultivation will all rise.
As for what was planted, why most of them were still first-grade middle-rank spirit rice, but it was also because the ‘spirit seed’ had only just evolved and had not yet completely matured.
It was estimated that after a few more generations, it would be able to produce a stable output of first-grade high-grade spiritual rice, and would no longer produce first-grade medium-grade spiritual rice like it did now.
At least, the quality of this batch of spirit rice was very good.
tan san these days to eat these Thunder Spirit rice, but even the ‘meal’ are smaller, only eat four pounds, there is a very strong sense of satiety, can not eat more.
This was all because of the energy contained in the Thunder Spirit Rice, the aura was much more abundant.
Afterwards, tan san put away this batch of Thunder Spirit Rice.
Then in turn, he used the remaining Thunder Spirit Rice Tree stalks to extract the vitality spirit liquid with the Life Intercepting Finger and planted them into the Star Origin Spirit Fruit Tree, and used the Wheel of the Year Technique to catalyze the Wheel of the Year.
The third day.
tan san got up early in the morning and then hurriedly headed towards the Divine Wind Valley workshop market.
Then finally, he arrived at the Water Cloud Pavilion before Qian Xiao Yue departed.
“Didn’t I tell you not to send it?”
Qian Xiaoyue looked at tan san, and although she said so in her mouth, she was still very happy in her heart.
“I’m a bit uneasy.”
tan san said and asked again, “I forgot to ask last time, who brought you guys along this time?”
“Senior Sister Hongmei.
But we aren’t going alone either, we are following a merchant team.
I heard that there is a strong Foundation Establishment Realm person sitting in the merchant caravan this time, and there are also five late stage Qi Practitioner guards, so in terms of safety, there is no need to worry too much.”
Qian Xiaoyue spoke.
tan san nodded.
He did know that the various regions, in fact, had always been in contact with each other, and there were merchant caravans that traveled normally.
It was just that because of the distance between the markets, and the need to pass through dangerous areas in between, the number of caravans traveling to and from them was actually relatively small, about ten days and half a month, before there was a team.
This time, Qian Xiaoyue and the others can take a caravan that has a strong Foundation Establishment realm cultivator to lead the caravan, it is already considered lucky, at least there is a caravan that is familiar with the path, coupled with a Foundation Establishment real cultivator to sit in the town, their safety will also be guaranteed.
Not to mention, Qian Xiaoyue still had the pile of spirit talismans he had sent out on him.
This time, besides tan san, her good sister Lu Weier also came, and along with her, there was also Fang Shitong.
Looking at the intimate appearance of the two, tan san was only slightly surprised, but not surprised.
The two had a mutual affection for each other before, and now that they were sharing a room together, they were in contact day after day, and becoming a daoist couple was also a matter of course.
“I heard that Fellow Daoist Fang is now working in the Gong Family?”
Seeing Fang Shitong, tan san also asked in a timely manner.
“Last time, Miss Gong invited me to join the Gong Family, I didn’t agree at that time, and shortly after that, I bumped into Miss Gong again, and that’s when I agreed.
Now I’m working in the Gong Family’s guards, and with more than a hundred lower grade spirit stones per month, it’s more than enough.”
Fang Shitong said with a smile.
Hearing this, tan san nodded.
Fang Shitong was a bounty cultivator before, and although he earned far more spirit stones, it was very dangerous.
Now that he wasn’t alone, and there was Lu Wei’er, it was quite normal for him to choose to join the Gong Family Escort and seek a peace of mind.
This, in fact, is also the choice of many middle-aged cultivators who have no hope of building a foundation.
When young, for the sake of dreams, the sword to go to the end of the world.
But when one feels that one is not the destiny of heaven and understands the difference with other truly gifted cultivators, one will silently fold one’s back and bend one’s back, giving up all the impracticality.
Fortunately, he hadn’t lost his heart and mind, and it was impossible for him to give up his path of seeking the Immortal Dao.
Not long after, many of the cultivators from the Water Cloud Pavilion who were about to head to the Water Cloud Immortal Sect appeared with them.
Even the Water Cloud Pavilion’s Pavilion Master, Tang Yuyan, also showed up.
Nowadays, tan san could be considered as one of her own, so she also showed a rare hint of closeness, walking over to greet her, saying, “Fellow Daoist Zhou is still adapting in the Little Peak Mountain Spiritual Land?”
“Adapted.
Thank you, Pavilion Master, for taking care of me.
That spiritual land, I am very satisfied.”
tan san even said back.
“That’s good.
You came this time, to send Little Moon off?
Don’t worry, among this group of reserve disciples, although she is not the most gifted, she is the one who cultivates the hardest and makes the most progress.
Plus, with her recommendation token, it shouldn’t be difficult for her to pass the Water Cloud Immortal Sect’s entrance examination.
If one is lucky and worships under a certain division elder, perhaps the chances of advancing between Foundation Establishment are much greater than all of us.”
Saying that, Tang Yuyan’s face couldn’t help but show a hint of despondency.
Her age, it wasn’t small anymore.
In less than ten more years, she would pass the sixty-year mark.
Once a cultivator passed the age of sixty, all of his body functions would decline, and it would be more than several times harder to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
And now, although she had already reached the peak of the ninth level of qi cultivation, she still didn’t have an ounce of certainty of breaking through.
Most importantly, Foundation Establishment Pills were hard to find.
As a sect cultivator, although her chances of obtaining the Foundation Establishment Pill were a bit greater, she still needed enough resources and contributions to exchange for it.
“She does work hard enough.”
tan san nodded, quite recognized.
In just a few months, she had cultivated from the fourth level of Qi Practicing to the fifth level of Qi Practicing.
Without enough effort, with her three attribute spirit root qualification, it would be extremely difficult to do so.
But not everyone, like tan san, had the help of an attribute panel.
Then not long after, as the leading senior sister Hong Mei opened her mouth, a group of cultivators then said goodbye to their friends and relatives, and rushed towards the outside of the marketplace.
tan san also followed and sent them to the entrance of the workshop market, watching Qian Xiaoyue and the others walk towards a large merchant group of more than a hundred people under the leadership of the ‘Red Plum’ senior sister, before stopping.
“There is no banquet in the world.
I hope that the next time we meet, we will all have a brighter future.”
tan san whispered before he turned around and headed within the workshop market.
This time, since he had gone out and arrived at the workshop market, he certainly would not be in a hurry to leave.
After casually finding a hidden corner, tan san utilized his Disguise Shrinking Technique to change his appearance and put on spare clothes before he began to frequent one store after another and began to purchase the Vitality Spirit Liquid on a large scale.
Of course, in addition to the Spiritual Liquid, he also purchased some Spiritual Energy Ores.
Cold iron ore, earth spirit lapis lazuli ore, and stalactite spirit ore …… were all things he needed in order to cultivate the Star Origin Spirit Fruit Tree.
A bottle of vitality spirit liquid fifty lower grade spirit stones, a store can probably buy a dozen bottles, tan san before and after going in and out of more than a dozen stores, almost the entire Divine Wind Valley market vitality spirit liquid to buy empty.
In addition, he also bought a whole bunch of various low grade Spiritual Energy Ores, almost filling up a storage bag.
However, by this point, the spirit stones on his body were also almost depleted.
“This time, it can also be described as a big purchase.
Purchasing one hundred and ninety-five bottles of Vitality Spirit Liquid, along with a large pile of Spirit Energy Ores, a total of more than fifteen thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones have been spent ……”
tan san was also somewhat helpless in his heart, who wouldn’t want to be carrying a huge amount of money, and have a large amount of Spirit Stones evening out in his own storage bag. But the Star Origin Spirit Fruit, was too important to him.
Some spending, in his opinion, was worth it.
After all, if the spirit stones were gone, they could be earned again, but the opportunity to improve one’s spiritual root qualification was not something that could be stumbled upon at any time.
The sooner it was upgraded, the greater the benefits would be.
“Anyway, in terms of my cultivation, I have the Jade Flower Pill, and I have the first-grade middle-ranked Spirit Rice Lei Ling Rice, plus the Spirit Land’s Spirit Qi concentration is also quite sufficient, so in a short period of time, there’s not much to spend.”
tan san silently calculated, before he silently walked towards the outside of the workshop market.
However, after leaving the Marketplace, he soon realized that there were a few shadows following far behind him.
In this regard, tan san had anticipated this.
His large-scale purchase this time would inevitably attract the attention of some people.
After all, spending more than fifteen thousand lower grade spirit stones at a time was very rare even in this workshop market.
In the eyes of those who were interested, it was naturally very eye-catching, and there were few cultivators who were moved by it.
Not to mention, his cultivation.
Even if he didn’t deliberately conceal it.
But a cultivation of the sixth level of Qi Practicing was nothing in the Divine Wind Valley Marketplace.
Sure enough, when tan san left the marketplace for some distance, he immediately sensed that there were two cultivators, who were not hiding at this moment, rapidly rushing towards his direction.
The two cultivators, one at the sixth level of Qi cultivation and the other at the seventh level of Qi cultivation, a male cultivator and a female cultivator.
At this moment, they were tracking at full speed and quickly took out their magic weapons.
“It’s the female and male double demon.
I wonder this time, which fellow Daoist is so unlucky to be targeted by them?”
Because it was daytime, there were actually cultivators walking around outside the workshop market.
From afar, some people saw these two cultivators and saw their signature magic weapons, one was a war hammer-like magic weapon, and the other was a roll of red diamonds.
The two were obviously in the marketplace and had a certain level of fame, which was why they were directly recognized.
tan san had since long since noticed these two cultivators, seeing this he also directly turned around, his eyes slightly sunken, saying, “The two fellow Daoists hurriedly chased after them, but is there something going on?”
“Indeed there is something that I would like to share with fellow Daoist.”
The male cultivator among them, seeing that tan san had no fear on his face, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, and instinctively stabilized his hand, stopped, and said.
“Oh?”
tan san just looked at the other party.
“I just want to borrow something from you.”
The male cultivator smiled and said.
“What nonsense, quick battle.”
The middle-aged female cultivator on the side was an acute person, quickly flinging a red diamond.
In a blink of an eye, the red diamond was seen transforming into a sharp blade, charging towards tan san at great speed.
The side of the male cultivator to see the situation, although feel a little bad, but also can only follow the shot, violently flung the war hammer, the war hammer, immediately rose against the wind, turned into a huge hammer, aimed at tan san’s direction ruthlessly smashed down.
And with his war hammer swung out, his mouth only seemed to be not spit general, said: “Borrow your storage bag a use.”
The two of them struck quickly, and there was not the slightest hesitation when they struck, their speed could be described as astonishingly fast.
But while their speed was fast, tan san’s speed was even faster.
Almost at the instant the two men approached, a defensive golden armor had already been propped up on his body, and it was none other than the Taiyi Golden Armor Technique.
This spell, he had long ago cultivated to the realm of great accomplishment, the strength of his defense was far superior to his previous body protection spell.
Immediately afterward, he flung two spirit talismans.
In the void, dark clouds condensed in a blink of an eye, covering up both heaven and earth.
Then, only a rumbling sound was heard.
Two thunderbolts in succession, just as fast as they could be, came down with a bang.
“What?”
The faces of the male and female cultivators changed, and they hurriedly threw out their own defense spells one after another.
One of the things thrown out from the male cultivator was a large black shield, while the female cultivator had a circular handkerchief.
Both defensive magic weapons were at the upper-grade magic weapon level, and after they were offered up, they emitted a misty light that enveloped both of them.
Boom! Boom!
Two vibrations in succession.
The two people’s minds were relieved.
It was blocked.
Although after blocking this blow, their spiritual energy was also disorganized, and they needed to resupply their spiritual energy in order for the defensive artifacts to be able to exert their power again.
Especially that female cultivator, because of her weaker cultivation, her entire handkerchief was thrown out, her spiritual energy was greatly depleted.
Then they immediately looked across.
Their attacks also landed directly on top of tan san’s defensive golden armor.
Dang! Dang!
The same two shocking sounds came out.
However, what made them incredibly shocked was that their attacks landing on the other party had only caused the defensive golden armor on the other party to sway slightly, with only 30% of their spiritual energy being consumed.
In other words, they needed a full three consecutive attacks to break the other party’s defense.
“So hard?”
Shocked, the two hastily struck again, once again controlling their magic weapons to attack.
Only, this time, their attacks fell short.
This was because at this moment, tan san had already utilized the Light Dividing Shadow Art.
A light shadow suddenly appeared in front of tan san, confusing the two men and causing their attacks to land directly on the ‘phantom’.
To tan san’s own body, however, it had no effect at all.
The two men’s hearts snapped, and they were about to react, when they suddenly realized that the sky had darkened again at some point.
Their faces changed, and they looked up, and they saw that in the dark clouds, the power of thunder and lightning was rapidly brewing.
Why did he have so many high-grade spirit talismans in his hands?
The two people were instantly a bit flustered in their hearts.
Only to see that the male cultivator once again sacrificed his shield and quickly pulled the female cultivator behind him.
Because at this moment, that female cultivator didn’t have time to control that handkerchief to block in front of her body, she just threw out a few spirit talismans and quickly stimulated the defensive vestments on her body.
The vestments on her body were also at the level of a mid-grade artifact, sufficient to block the full force of a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator.
But as tan san’s lightning attack fell.
Boom! Boom!
The third thunderbolt, once again, blasted the male cultivator’s defensive magic weapon away.
Then as the fourth fell, the two threw out several defensive spirit talismans one after the other, and together they activated the vestments on their bodies, combining their efforts to resist.
Puh-puh-puh~!
Layers and layers of defensive spirit light quickly crumbled under that lightning bombardment.
The lightning power that was full of destructive aura was as powerful as a bamboo, tearing apart their layer after layer of defense until finally, it landed on top of their vestments.
“Blocked it again ……”
Two people looked at their own body, that only a thin layer of defense aura, eyes full of the color of joy after the robbery.
But soon, they understood that this was not the time to be happy.
Obviously, they had gone out unfavorably this time, and had kicked the iron plate.
This person, was really too strong.
Although his cultivation might not be high, but his means were not simple.
That one high grade spirit talisman flung out, which Qi Practicing 7th layer cultivator could block it?
This wasn’t casting spells at all, but rather flinging money and throwing spirit stones out.
A high grade spirit talisman had a market price of one thousand lower grade spirit stones, but it was only an ordinary attack talisman, and its power was equivalent to the full force of a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi cultivation.
But these four spiritual talismans in front of him, which one of them was not weaker than the full force strike of a cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Practicing?
Moreover, they were also overbearing and horrifying lightning magic spirit talismans, one thousand and five hundred lower-grade spirit stones a piece, or even one thousand and eight hundred lower-grade spirit stones a piece would be bought by someone.
Four is six thousand lower grade spirit stones ……
Trenchless~!
It was also simply not something that ordinary cultivators could deal with.
And with their means, there was no way to block the other party’s strike again in a short period of time.
Years of tacit understanding allowed them to make a decision almost in a blink of an eye.
That was to flee.
The farther away they fled, the better.
Pfft!
But the next moment, they felt that thin layer of defensive aura, shatter.
Then that female cultivator saw an additional hole in the center of her daoist’s eyebrow.
Pools of blood, as well as that flowery white thing, all flowed out along that hole.
She instantly lost her soul.
“No, spare my life, please let me go, I’m willing to be a cow or a horse for you, and swear to serve you for the rest of my life ……”
The female cultivator cried out in terror, only feeling cold physically and mentally, incomparably desperate.
“Spare your life? If I am not strong, will you all spare me?”
tan san once again threw out a Gengjin Finger.
“Don’t ah, I know it’s wrong …… I really know ……”
Poof!
The female cultivator cried out in despair, but she also quickly followed in the footsteps of the male cultivator, and a hole was added to her head with it.
“You are not know wrong, you just know you are going to die!”
tan san snorted coldly and quickly approached, reaching out to collect the storage bags on the two men, as well as the magic weapons.
This time, the reason why he didn’t think of a way to escape and get away in the first place, was really because Qian Xiao Yue’s departure did make his mind suffer a little.
His heart was depressed and he wanted to vent some of his anger.
The key is also that these two people are too arrogant, before he left the market, he had already noticed the tracking of these two people, and then even more uncovered.
He is now self-conscious of the strength has not weak, the various spells and means, have been cultivated to the state of completion.
Long ago wanted to find someone, fight, verify their own means.
Therefore, this is the first time to take the initiative.
It was just a pity that these two were still too weak.
The strength was just about the same as the cultivator named ‘Fu Hongyue’ that he had encountered after the black market ended last time.
And he also remembered that he had blasted the other party into charcoal with a single strike, so much so that the other party’s storage bag had also crumbled apart, a matter of great loss.
That was why he had taken control and flung out four spirit talismans with each of them before finally ending the battle with the Gungjin Finger.
After approaching, tan san quickly picked up the two people’s storage bags while a fireball spell burned the other party’s corpse, destroying the corpse before picking up the two people’s vestments and throwing them inside the storage bag.
Finally, his body a flash of spiritual light, light body art to use, and to use the seven stars on the moon, body like a shocking general, quickly rushed toward the distance.
As he was leaving, he even used a cleansing technique on his body one after another.
Not only to calm his body’s spiritual power fluctuation, but also that originally marked in his body’s spiritual qi marking point, cleaning empty.
He didn’t want to attract certain cultivators to track him down.
Although in reality, after he displayed his means to powerfully kill the male and female double demon, there weren’t any cultivators who dared to track and approach again.
