Chapter 1248

Bai Hang Holy Maiden again entered Longshe Shan, discovering that this place had undergone some changes; compared to the previous visit, the density of heaven and earth spiritual qi had increased considerably, and that mountain peak of Longshe Shan had also changed, seeming to have risen considerably; looking closely, one could see the whole mountain emanating Dao resonance.

It seemed as if the mountain peak had come alive; this feeling was strange, Bai Hang Holy Maiden couldn't help but glance twice, confirming one thing: Longshe Shan was no longer an ordinary mountain peak, but had acquired a spiritual vein; from now on, it was a spiritual mountain.

Such a change was quite normal; after she glanced a few times and confirmed this, she did not continue looking, for it was merely a spiritual vein—she had seen many, and there were not a few spiritual veins within Tian Du Men, yet she could not take seriously this small spiritual mountain before her.

Qinglong Daoren's ability—finding a spiritual vein was not difficult; to her, this seemed quite normal. She then turned her gaze to Qinglong Daoren, feeling that something was different, as if his strength had undergone a tremendous change, completely unlike what she had seen before; even if his outward impression remained the same, Bai Hang Holy Maiden's perceptive ability was not weak, and she could still discern a hint.

Staring at Qinglong Daoren for a moment, she congratulated, saying, 'Congratulations, Dao friend, your strength has progressed.'

Qinglong Daoren had expected her to say something else; who knew it would be words of congratulation, which made him somewhat amused.

'Compared to you, Holy Maiden, I am still far behind; your strength has advanced greatly—maintain this pace, and entering the Seek Dao Realm will be imminent.'

The last time they met, Bai Hang Holy Maiden's cultivation was at the True Person Realm; now she has reached the True Person Threefold Heaven, her progress is indeed considerable.

At this rate, she will soon be able to step into the Seek Dao Realm, and when that happens, she will undergo a fundamental transformation.

Naturally, she offered a congratulatory remark, Bai Hang Holy Maiden waved her hand: 'I cannot compare to you, Dao friend; the impression you give me has improved greatly—I fear you have already entered the Seek Dao Realm.'

It must be said, this woman is truly extraordinary—she can actually perceive Qinglong Daoren's strength without the slightest error; one must know that her strength and Qinglong Daoren's differ by more than a little, not even Xinran Zhanglao could sense it.

'Holy Maiden, you have keen eyesight—admirable, admirable.' Qinglong Daoren did not deny it, but rather acknowledged Bai Hang Holy Maiden's words.

Bai Hang Holy Maiden couldn't help but draw a sharp breath of cool air, involuntarily glancing several more times at the person before her.

Not long has passed, yet Qinglong Daoren's strength has progressed rapidly; if this continues, this person is very likely to become a great power in a region.

By hiding in this place, he avoids disturbance and will not be troubled by the scheming of the outside world; he can cultivate in peace—this choice is truly excellent.

If possible, Bai Hang Holy Maiden would also like to do the same—hide away and cultivate in peace.

However, that is not very likely.

Dahe Peak needs her; many junior fellow disciples need her as well, so she cannot rest, nor can she retreat into closed-door cultivation.

'Not at all, I cannot compare to you, Dao friend.' Bai Hang Holy Maiden glanced again at Qinglong Daoren, confirming his cultivation—Seek Dao Realm; although not a top-tier strong one, in Cangzhou and the surrounding area he counts as one of the strong ones.

At least from now on, Qinglong Daoren need not worry about being unable to defend himself; possessing Seek Dao Realm strength, together with this formation, he need not fear external threats—the Mangshan Mountain Range is his blessed land; if he continues to stay here, perhaps he could……

These are not her concern; what Qinglong Daoren does is his own affair.

'Holy Maiden, you didn't come this time just to congratulate me, did you?' Qinglong Daoren went straight to the point, not wishing to continue idle chatter.

Bai Hang Holy Maiden's expression turned serious as she asked, 'I don't know what grade of pill refiner you are, Dao friend.'

Qinglong Daoren's expression tightened, his gaze falling on Bai Hang Holy Maiden; a thought arose in his heart, and he said, 'Holy Maiden, could it be that you want me to refine pills for you?'

Bai Hang Holy Maiden did not receive an answer, yet she was not discouraged; instead she nodded and said, 'Not bad—my faction's senior has been injured and needs a healing pill; I don't know if you, Dao friend, can refine such a pill.'

'Dao friend, rest assured—your remuneration will certainly not be lacking.'

Fearing Qinglong Daoren might refuse, Bai Hang Holy Maiden immediately gave a promise, for she knew Qinglong Daoren's ability and also knew he needed various resources; Tian Du Men is not lacking, resources are abundant.

Although she knew Qinglong Daoren had dealings with many powers, conducting trades, among them the Huang Family was the most obvious; during this period the Huang Family's strength surged forward, not lacking in making a splash, and those clans near the Huang Family have been cleared out somewhat.

Bai Hang Holy Maiden naturally knows that such familial struggles are of no concern to Tian Du Men.

As long as the commotion is not too great, the rise and fall of families follow a set pattern.

'Oh?' Qinglong Daoren asked curiously, 'I don't know what pill the Holy Maiden wishes to have refined.'

He neither agreed nor refused, but simply inquired about the pill.

Qinglong Daoren naturally knows his own capability; he cannot yet refine seventh-grade pills, requiring the true form Chen Chuyang to act.

Regarding the true form, he dare not readily agree, mainly because of the price issue.

If the price is suitable, there is naturally no problem; if the price is not suitable, then sorry, there's nothing to discuss.

'This is the pill formula.' Bai Hang Holy Maiden hesitated a moment, took out a pill formula, handed it to Qinglong Daoren, and added a reminder: 'This pill formula is known to both you and me; no one else may be allowed to know it—can you, Dao friend, manage that?'

'Naturally there is no problem.' Qinglong Daoren nodded, naturally knowing this rule; as a pill refiner, he will naturally help the employer keep the secret, he will not blab, and even if he did, no one could speak.

He still possesses this principle.

Having the pill formula in hand, Qinglong Daoren opened it and frowned tightly.

Bai Hang Holy Maiden kept staring; seeing Qinglong Daoren's tightly furrowed brow that would not relax, she couldn't help but worry.

After the time it takes to burn an incense stick.

Seeing Qinglong Daoren silent, Bai Hang Holy Maiden anxiously asked, 'How is it? Can you refine it?'

Qinglong Daoren put away the pill formula and said, 'Your pill formula is not simple.'

The eighth-grade pill, Heavenly Capital Dragon King Pill, exceeds his capability range.

He could not possibly refine it; even regarding the true form, he dare not guarantee it, after all this is an eighth-grade pill.

Moreover, it is among the more difficult-to-refine eighth-grade pills; the refining difficulty is great, greater than that of the Luotian Snake King Pill; Qinglong Daoren dare not promise on behalf of the true form, for he knows the true form's strength—probably capable only of refining seventh-grade pills, while eighth-grade pills remain uncertain.

Bai Hang Holy Maiden tensely asked, 'You also have no way?'

'I really need this pill; as for the materials, you need not worry—I can help you find them, remuneration is up to you to set, and I can also help you locate a spiritual vein.' Bai Hang Holy Maiden was truly anxious, for the Dragon King Pavilion below requires this pill, which concerns the future of Tian Du Men.

It also concerns her future; if she can obtain the protection of the Dragon King Pavilion, her standing in Tian Du Men in the future will be unshakable.

The Qinglong Daoren before her is her lucky star; she has placed her hopes on him, and Bai Hang Holy Maiden hopes he can succeed in refining the pill.
