The drawer closed crisply and neatly, cutting off Liang Qu's prying eyes.

"There's no share for you inside." The Xu Yue Prince said irritably, "You are not the only one who needs them."

The reason was reasonable and impeccable.

The Xu Yue Prince was not alone; he had sons and grandsons.

Liang Qu helplessly accepted reality.

"Teacher, when you make jade tokens, is there any consumption?"

Stepping into the Perfected Form realm.

Liang Qu had learned the same methods as the old monk, being able to use the "Thunder Character Seal" talisman-drawing method he had learned in the past to imprint Golden Body divine abilities onto special items.

Unfortunately, he didn't know if it was because the "Thunder Character Seal" grade wasn't high—Middle-Grade, Middle-Tier—or if he himself wasn't skilled enough, or even that the Golden Body was different from the external-release attacks of Yang Yang Dongxiong and the Xu Yue Prince.

The "Qu-version" small orders he made didn't have good effects; others didn't cultivate the Golden Body and had no resonance, so at most they reached the level of an ordinary Galloping Horse realm hard-training.

And he found that making this token was quite troublesome, requiring him to take something out of his divine ability, which wasn't too much, but normal cultivation for several months could compensate for it.

"Do you know about 'Retreating Talismans'?"

"Naturally, I know; the student cultivates 'Subduing Dragons and Tigers' and also 'Ten Thousand Victories Holding Origin,' which contain the Retreating Talisman method."

Cultivation is not about how much you practice, but how much you gain.

Retreating Talisman.

It belongs to the Daoist school of thought, meaning that after each practice session, certain steps are needed to consolidate the cultivation effect, using a gentle way to seal the "fire" generated during practice.

This process is "Retreating Talisman."

"I use the dissipated 'fire,' and I can naturally generate one in about half a year; under this progress, there is no major impact."

Liang Qu suddenly realized.

The shelf life of a jade token is five years; in other words, if made silently, at most eight or nine tokens can exist at the same time.

As for the old monk's side.

Liang Qu thought the situation was different.

It should be because the two of them cultivated the same type of technique, and the Golden Body acts on oneself; under resonance, they can manufacture the same or even better effects at a lower cost.

"Must be careful of descendants of Martial Saints; most of them will probably have similar things on them... Eh, out of money again."

Coming out of the Xu Yue Prince's government office.

Liang Qu touched his inner lapel.

Money is like flowing water.

After paying for the jade token, his savings plummeted to fifty thousand taels, and he somewhat regretted not letting the old toad buy two plots of land to plant lotus.

Stable.

Water puddles shining.

Warm water washed down, following the hair to form water beads.

Going to and from Ningjiang Prefecture, Fan Xinglai was overjoyed to wash his precious horse, carrying a large hairbrush to wash the big black horse; his excitement was overflowing, and it looked like he couldn't wait to use a file to fix the horse's hooves.

Since he bought one, the other two...

Liang Qu went to the stable and took a curious glance.

Chishan was lazily lying on its side in the stable basking in the sun, its whole body having an indescribable comfort; seeing Liang Qu arrive, it bared its teeth.

Look at the side again.

Sure enough.

Liang Qu shook his head: "Spring is here, and it's the season for all things to recover; Xinglai! Wash the other two as well, don't just care about yours."

"Understood, understood! I'll wash them after I'm done!" Fan Xinglai replied repeatedly.

With a Wu Sheng's strike, Liang Qu seemed to have put on new clothes from a state of being stark naked, regaining a sense of security; waiting to see the old monk at the end of the month, the "contradictions" would be complete.

Cultivation!

The sun was bright, the meditation cushion was facing the pond, and it was full of greenery.

It had quite a bit of the charm of a "meditation spot."

Liang Qu sat cross-legged, picked up the red gourd at his side, and poured the unfinished medicine pills into his mouth.

Water-Marsh Essence +104】

Water-Marsh Essence +89】

"Gurgle, gurgle..."

His stomach made a roaring sound.

Liang Qu covered his abdomen.

"Hiss."

With the medicinal properties clashing as they accumulated, he actually felt the long-lost experience of diarrhea.

"Medicine is three parts poison."

Muttering a sentence, Liang Qu got up to look for a toilet bucket.

April 9th.

Moon bright and stars shining.

Bottles and jars were overturned on the ground, a mess; there were gourds, porcelain bottles, and exquisite medicine boxes, all empty.

Water-Marsh Essence: 397,000】!

Inside the Ze Tripod, the blue tide surged, colliding into tiny specks of light.

"The flow is quite large..."

Liang Qu was surprised.

The total amount of essence from eating all the stolen elixirs was close to four hundred thousand, definitely not a small number!

A considerable portion of the Treasure Fish Pills inside had lost Water-Marsh Essence due to storage time, a portion was given to Frog Master, and he let Long Long Binglin take the rest back to the Dragon-Man tribe.

Ten elixir rooms, and he only took three.

The Ghost Mother Sect's elixir vein is not a warehouse; precious medicines are sent out continuously once refined, and what they intercepted this time was only the intermediate flow.

Even when they went, the three lineages fled, delaying the collection of elixirs for a while; calculated this way, the Ghost Mother Sect's daily alchemy scale was also quite huge.

So many supreme-grade elixir furnaces are no different from production lines; with the number of alchemists, the alchemy speed is not surprising.

Where did the materials come from? Thinking about it.

"Is the Net Master so powerful?"

Liang Qu could only attribute it to the Net Master who occupied the Eastern Water Region.

Fishing nets in the world have levels; the Net Master is probably the top level!

The night wind was cool, turning the lotus leaves.

"Hoo, try building a beam..."

The qi-sea in his body was very active, with a trend of expansion.

According to the plan, he would set off west tomorrow; taking this opportunity...

Collecting all thoughts, Liang Qu's mind moved, the essence in the Ze Tripod plummeted, and he exerted his full power.

Tripod Master: Liang Qu】

Refining Ze Spirit: Water Wang Yuan Purple Fusion Degree: 182‰】

Invisible power spread, and the noisy pond became much quieter.

Introspection of his own body.

The first Xiandao Dragon Court was shining with golden light.

The second Xiandao Dragon Court was much "thinner," the base of the Xiandao was bare, and the whole body was gray and white without any vitality.

Second divine ability.

Slashing the Dragon!

Base, pillar, beam,

Wall, top, piece.

In a sense.

The cultivation process of Perfected Form and Galloping Horse is not much different.

The difference lies in the fact that Galloping Horse builds brick and earth houses, while Perfected Form transforms and sublimates, turning the "old, broken, and small" that was barely constructed from point to line and then to surface in the past into a complete, magnificent palace.

The foundation of the second Xiandao was laid early, and towering pillars stood on the island; although the bare appearance showed a bit of monotony, under the guidance of the massive amount of essence, the crossbeams were gradually constructed, combining horizontal and vertical, as if a complete skeleton had been born.

The world faded in color.

In his gaze, complex lines appeared again, long snakes dancing.

"Hoo!"

The improvement in realm drove the growth of his physique; his heart beat like a drum, blood surged like a great river, and ripples appeared in the pond.

Heat waves steamed, and tree leaves trembled.

The Great Da He Li turned over, scratched its back, irritated by the subtle vibrations on the ground, and finally got up angrily; seeing Liang Qu, it rubbed its eyes and lay down in a big shape.

"Ha-hoo, ha-hoo..."

Morning fog was hazy, and the sky was about to brighten.

Fresh carp jumped, water foam fell to the ground, making a tiny bubble.

Shangrao pier was bustling, fishmongers coming and going.

Xu Xu Zishuai jumped onto the bow of the boat with a bundle on his back, arched his hands, and looked around.

"Agreed to set off today, where are the people?"

The fur was slightly cool.

The Great Da He Li yawned, squatted on a stone, and carefully combed its fur with a water-dipped wooden comb, made a small side part, put away the small tools, and called its son to build the boat.

The Black Dragon shook its fur and came to the pond to drink water.

Patter.

Water beads dripped from the leaf tip, creating ripples.

The Black Dragon pricked up its ears.

Whoosh!

Blue tide surged.

Brilliant light entered the sea of consciousness.

Water Wang Yuan fusion degree increased, favored by heaven and earth, favored by rivers +0.1766】

River favor degree: 14.6479】

Tripod Master: Liang Qu】

Refining Ze Spirit: Water Wang Yuan Purple to Orange Fusion Degree: 200‰】

Water-Marsh Essence: 37,000】

Comprehended talent: Turbulent Flow】

Inside the sea of clouds.

Immortal Palace pillars, crossbeams intersecting, the skeleton structure was complete!

Just at this moment.

Great wind flowed.

A sky-blue dew seed floated out.

Creation Seed: 3】

Dew Seed: 4】

"It's done!"

Liang Qu opened his eyes.

Brilliant light erupted.

The faded world slowly recovered its color, all the complex lines, like black snakes entwining, disappeared, suddenly refreshing.

"Liang Ashui! Are you up yet!"

The door knocker knocked.

Xu Xu Zishuai's voice came from outside the door.

"Time to set off!"
