Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
Hua Lao explained: "Every 333 years, the Three Great Immortal Sects take the lead in holding the Thousand Sects Dharma Assembly, and it will be our turn in five years."
The cultivation sects participating this time are the most in history, with an unprecedented scale.
Therefore, the Immortal Masters attach great importance to it.
Hongfeng Valley is too small to accommodate so many people, so we have to change the venue."
Xu Zhangqing suddenly understood: "If you hadn't reminded me, I really would have forgotten."
The Qianfan Zhengdu Meeting held in Xuanxin City was modeled after the Thousand Sects Dharma Assembly.
And the Thousand Sects Dharma Assembly is led by the Three Great Immortal Sects and held once every 333 years.
Divided into trade and dueling.
Dueling lasts forty-nine days.
Trade lasts eighty-one days.
By then, the number of cultivators coming to Dongting Immortal Sect will be no less than ten thousand, or even more.
With the scale of Hongfeng Valley, it can accommodate at most a few thousand people; any more would have to stay in the sky.
Although Xu Zhangqing had only been to the Flower Sea once, his memory of it was vivid—the space there was not only large enough, but the scenery was picturesque, refreshing the heart and mind.
It is indeed the first choice for a gathering!
Hua Lao chuckled and reminded: "Your only competitors are the Rong Family and the Zhang Family."
Xu Zhangqing was stunned, then said with a face full of surprise: "You just said you would only tell me!"
Hua Lao blinked: "I indeed only told you one person, but this news cannot be blocked; the Rong Family and the Zhang Family already learned of it in advance from the Xianfeng side."
Xu Zhangqing frowned slightly: "The Rong Family itself belongs to the Spirit Field First Cultivation Family; not only are there many family members, but they also control the most Spirit Fields at present."
As for the Zhang Family, although they cannot compare with the Rong Family in terms of the number of Spirit Fields and influence, they are equally formidable."
One person alone must compete with two other cultivation families for the right to settle in Hongfeng Valley.
To be honest, the success rate is almost zero.
Indeed, Xu Zhangqing has an identity that both the Rong Family and the Zhang Family envy: he is the only Spirit Cultivator at the Spirit Field Core.
He has the right to supervise all Spirit Fields and Lingti.
But the Rong Family and the Zhang Family are both old cultivation families, existing for over a thousand years.
Their family members are spread throughout the Immortal Sect.
They have their presence in the Yu Shui Pavilion, Di Huo Qu, Zhuqi Peak, and Spiritual Vein.
Even, the Rong Family has a Core Disciple, said to be extremely terrifying in strength.
As for the Zhang Family, although they have no Core Disciple, they have the... disciple of a Core Disciple.
In short, these two families have backers supporting them on the Xianfeng side.
Regarding this, Hua Lao could do nothing: "Anyway, this matter can only rely on yourself."
Xu Zhangqing nodded heavily, then cupped his hands in a bow: "Thank you for your guidance and pointers, Disciple will definitely do my best!"
Hua Lao felt gratified: "Very good!"
Afterwards, Xu Zhangqing turned and walked toward the Left Side.
He still did not leave the Palace, but came to the room exclusive to the Spirit Cultivator.
Regarding the situation of disasters, he wanted to understand more.
If something unexpected really happens, at least there would be ways and methods to deal with it.
With this investigation, he discovered that the place where he was located had indeed experienced the disaster of the Wild Spirit Storm eighty-eight years ago.
Afterwards, an experienced old spirit farmer was specially arranged to stand guard, and this person was Zhu Fuxian's close friend.
Who?
Lan Xin!
Knowing his own lifespan was limited, he simply made his final contribution to the Immortal Sect and Spirit Field.
Of course, it was also because he was close to Zhu Fuxian, so the two often met, drank wine, and chatted.
In the blink of an eye, the day for harvesting Yang Extreme Medicinal Materials arrived.
Xu Zhangqing pointed with his left hand, holding a sharp sickle in his right hand.
Pointing and directing on one hand.
Harvesting mercilessly on the other.
Harvested 1 Extreme Golden Wu Vine, Lifespan +7 days
Harvested 1 Extreme Guanri Mushroom, Lifespan +7 days
Harvested 1 Extreme Warm Yang Mushroom, Lifespan +7 days
Harvested 1 Extreme Red Gold Thunder Marrow Grass, Lifespan +8 days
Cumulative new lifespan: days
Current remaining lifespan: 790 years
This harvest took three hours, mainly because the Red Gold Thunder Marrow Grass needed to discharge electricity, so it was delayed for a while.
Fortunately, the final gains were considerable.
Especially the lifespan added by the Extreme Red Gold Thunder Marrow Grass, which was the most among all the Lingti currently cultivated.
As a result, Xu Zhangqing was only a hair's breadth away from a lifespan of eight hundred years.
One could even look forward to a lifespan of a thousand years.
By next year, in terms of lifespan alone, he would be able to stand on equal footing with Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.
The only pity was that during these two harvests, the Green Finger Technique surprisingly did not succeed either time.
Ever since the last time the Four Seasons Fruit Tree mutated into the Time-Space Annual Ring Tree, it was as if all good luck had been used up.
Consecutive harvests.
Consecutive casting.
Consecutive failures.
Stubbornly, not even vegetables succeeded; this situation was truly rare.
Xu Zhangqing stretched lazily: "Forget it, forget it; some things cannot be forced."
Afterward, he turned and walked toward the Stone House.
Since the Yang Extreme medicinal materials had already been harvested, it was time to start refining Pills.
And among Yang attribute Pills, the one Xu Zhangqing was most adept at at the Current Stage was the Red Yang Pill.
It was just a pity that because of the Four Seasons Fruit Tree's mutation, he temporarily had no way to refine it.
Therefore, he switched to the Warm Yang Pill using Guanri Mushroom plus Warm Yang Mushroom.
Only the Thunder Pattern Stone... wait, the Thunder Tyrant Pill needed the Extreme Red Gold Thunder Marrow Grass.
The Guanri Pill paired Golden Crow Vine with Guanri Mushroom.
The Breaking Barrier Pill used Extreme Red Gold Thunder Marrow Grass plus Extreme Warm Yang Mushroom.
The Pill types seemed many, but in reality the refining methods were largely the same.
Xu Zhangqing looked at the Pill Furnace before him thoughtfully: "Strange to say, I have successfully refined quite a few Pills, so why has the Pill Refining Technique still not appeared?"
Reasonably speaking, as long as one succeeds once, the Technique should appear.
But the problem is, from the initial Labor Strengthening Pills up to now, adding up all the various Pills, the successful attempts number not just a thousand but several hundred.
Yet no matter how he strove, he still could not touch the threshold of the Pill Refining Technique.
Clearly so close, yet incomparably distant.
He always felt he was missing something, it was on the tip of his tongue, as it were.
Next, Xu Zhangqing prepared all the materials for the various Pills in advance.
Since he was idle with nothing to do, he might as well try them one by one.
After all, later on it would be impossible to earn money relying on just one kind of Pill.
The more types, the more demand.
Warm Yang Pill
Main Ingredients: 3 Extreme Guanri Mushrooms, 2 Extreme Warm Yang Mushrooms
Auxiliary Ingredients: 1 Jade Dew Grass, 5 Condensing Soul Flowers
Thunder Tyrant Pill
Main Ingredients: 5 Extreme Red Gold Thunder Marrow Grasses
Auxiliary Ingredients: 3 Thunder Pattern Stones, 1 tael of Xuan Iron Filings
Guanri Pill
Main Ingredients: 4 Extreme Golden Crow Vines, 1 Extreme Guanri Mushroom
Auxiliary Ingredients: 2 Ice Crystal Flowers, 3 grams of Snake Saliva Fragrance
Breaking Barrier Pill
Main Ingredients: 2 Extreme Red Gold Thunder Marrow Grasses, 3 Extreme Warm Yang Mushrooms
Auxiliary Ingredients: 5 grams of Xuan Bing Iron, 1 spoon of Ling Fusion Sand
With everything ready, Xu Zhangqing decisively ignited the Spirit Fire.
Red flames licked the bottom of the Starfall Secret Gold Cauldron like fire tongues; in just a short while, the fire constellations in the four directions lit up in succession.
Eastern Wei Fire Tiger.
Northern Shi Fire Pig.
Western Zi Fire Monkey.
Southern Yi Fire Snake.
Their lighting up represented the temperature changes of the Starfall Secret Gold Cauldron.
1 to 4 respectively indicate: Weak, Medium, High, Strong.
Using the Starfall Secret Gold Cauldron to refine pills, one only needs to see which constellation suddenly lights up and which dims down to determine the temperature, stage, and even the pill's effect!
