Chapter 494: Secrets of the Silver Mirror, Essence of Sun and Moon, Immortal Dew
"The method of planting spiritual roots by that senior is indeed superb. Compared to the few spiritual root masters I inquired about, the technique is countless times better. Is the Central Lands really so outstanding?"
"The dragon veins overseas are occupied by several major sects and the East Sea Dragon Clan, unlike the people of the Central Lands, who follow heaven and earth, and whose aptitude is outstanding from generation to generation!"
"And the spiritual dew gathered in the gold basin, why is it so similar to the moon brilliance condensed for my little mirror?"
He Qilang was full of worries. After beating Shi Heilong a few times without leaving a trace, he returned to his cave dwelling and met his nominal master Feng Xianzi.
Feng Xianzi didn't care where he went, and said with a smile: "Are you back? Did you gain anything from going to Qian Qian Dao You's place today!"
He Qilang just hid the weirdness of discovering the gold basin and told everything else honestly.
The relationship between him and Feng Xianzi is also one of mutual use. When he first met Feng Xianzi, he was a servant who was discovered by his master and was being hunted down, and Feng Xianzi was simply a wandering old cultivator who looked like a beggar.
At that time, He Qilang had just entered the Dao, and because he acted too urgently, he was seen by others that he had a heavy treasure. Facing several cultivators whose cultivation base was better than his, he tried his best to kill them back.
Fortunately, he met Feng Xianzi who was passing by, and he saved him. He Qilang also discovered that Feng Xianzi looked like this because he had suffered a heavy injury and his cultivation base was half-abandoned.
Fortunately, although Feng Xianzi's cultivation base was half-abandoned, his vision was still there. A few words of guidance made He Qilang feel that he had gained a lot. He Qilang also knew how to repay his kindness, so he tried his best to get spiritual medicine that was useful for Feng Xianzi's recovery.
The old and the young lived together from then on. As Feng Xianzi's cultivation base slowly recovered, they rented a cave dwelling in the Chamber of Commerce and settled down.
He Qilang also discovered from this that having a superficial backer was far more convenient than wandering about all by himself!
Although Feng Xianzi also knew that he had a great secret, he did not have any attempt to test it, which made him feel relatively at ease. The two formed this master-apprentice relationship.
Feng Xianzi stroked his beard and said to him: "I still underestimated Qian Qian Dao You. This sword technique of sword light differentiation, let alone ordinary rogue cultivators, even the well-known immortal sects and aristocratic families in the Central Lands, not many people can cultivate it."
"The technique of spiritual roots is an overseas transmission. A cultivator from the Central Lands who has such sword techniques and is proficient in overseas spiritual root secret methods, Qian Qian Dao You's background must be very interesting."
"Not to mention anything else, the two boys around him are not simple. Although they are essence monsters, their internal refining technique is already quite hot, which is the only one the old Dao has ever seen in his life."
"The spiritual roots that Qian Qian Dao You is looking for..." Feng Xianzi sighed: "Actually, the old Dao knows the news of such a spiritual root, but this spiritual root is entangled in karma and is a muddy water. If people don't harm me, I can't harm people. Such troublesome things, let it rot there!"
The master and apprentice talked about the cultivation homework for a while, and He Qilang got up to leave, seeing Feng Xianzi sitting under the gourd rack, holding a Dao book in his hand.
Facing the bright moon that was gradually becoming clear above his head, he looked up slightly, and there was a sense of loss in his eyes, so he recited softly:
"The gourd beyond the heavens bears two flowers; one flower falls to become Qiongquan, one leaf drifts to grow Zhangming... Originally spiritual plants born from the same root, why must the flower and leaf torment each other so urgently!"
Facing such a scene, He Qilang couldn't help but hold his breath and swallow his voice, walking towards his cave dwelling with his hands and feet.
Opening the cave dwelling's seal, he found that the various small tricks he had laid out still had no traces of being moved. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but then felt a little guilty. Although Feng Xianzi was a bit dissolute and liked to be unrestrained, he was not bound by trifles and was free and easy. He was a true gentleman.
Not to mention other things, the spiritual medicine that He Qilang gave him to treat his old wounds over the past few years, he took it and drank it, took it and used it, and never asked about the source.
The guidance on his Dao industry was also dedicated, and there was never any sign of plotting He Qilang's secrets.
He Qilang also respected him as a teacher, but the caution of his humble background had been engraved in his bone marrow, and a great disaster in the past made him dare not trust others easily.
"If I plant spiritual roots this time, I will be able to cultivate to Penetrating the Law in the future. At that time, I will definitely help Master heal his old wounds with all my heart. If I violate this oath, I will be punished by heaven's thunder!"
After He Qilang made this oath sincerely, he lifted his lapel, and a flesh-colored pocket squirmed on his belly. He Qilang took out a broken silver mirror from it.
He pinched the seal with both hands, held the silver mirror in his arms, and faced the bright moon that was gradually rising on the sea level.
The area within ten miles was immediately dark, and the essence of the moonlight gathered into a clear brilliance, shining on the silver mirror in front of his chest.
The moon brilliance condensed, and a layer of mist gradually covered the mirror surface. The mist gradually thickened, turning into drops of water, trembling slightly on the mirror surface.
Feng Xianzi looked at his disciple's cave dwelling intentionally or unintentionally, smiled, and continued to drink and drink there.
At Qian Chen's reef island cave dwelling, he casually drew a circle, condensed a round light water mirror in front of him, and took the surrounding hundreds of miles into the mirror. The crude seals laid out by those overseas cultivators could not prevent this Dao Sect direct transmission round light technique at all, so the surrounding scenes were all taken into the mirror and fell into Qian Chen's eyes.
Looking at the silver mirror gathering the moon brilliance, Qian Chen showed a thoughtful smile: "Sure enough, it is a fragment of the Immortal Han Dew-Bearing Plate..."
"During the Great Tribulation of the Immortal Han, the Dew-Bearing Terrace was destroyed, and the Jade Soul Immortal and the Lingbao Dew-Bearing Plate were missing. This is one of the biggest mysteries in the late Immortal Han period. I didn't expect this spiritual treasure to be damaged! To put it in a good way—finally, no one will compete with my Supreme Dao for business!"
Although Qian Chen joked like this, a touch of regret still appeared in his expression.
This kind of spiritual treasure magic treasure that can refine third-turn spiritual pills in batches can be said to be one of the most precious spiritual treasures in the Earth Immortal Realm.
It is a national treasure of the Immortal Han that is even better than the Chixiao Sword.
In the past, in order to cast this spiritual treasure, Emperor Wu continuously ordered the great alchemists Li Shaojun, Li Shaoweng, Luan Da, Gongsun Qing and other Fangxian Dao alchemists to refine the Dew-Bearing Plate, and for this, he killed Li Shaoweng, Luan Da and other alchemists who plotted this plate."
And in order to obtain the Sun Jin Jing and Moon Silver Soul for refining this plate, Emperor Wu sent people to conquer foreign lands, broke the Dragon City of the Xiongnu, plundered the Heavenly God Gold Man sacrificed by the Demon Path Witch Sect; and sent envoys to the Thirty-Six Worlds of the Western Regions, destroying countless countries, before gathering the Moon Silver Soul for refining this treasure.
The copper mines of Mount Shou, under the mining of successive dynasties occupying the Nine Provinces, were finally exhausted during the reign of Emperor Wu, and one of the most precious Nine Great Divine Golds was exhausted...
In today's Central Lands, even if the Mount Shou copper mines are still there, who can conquer foreign lands and seize the Sun Jin Jing and Moon Silver Soul?
Such a spiritual treasure that can be the core transmission of a lineage, besides this one that is already broken, has become a swan song.
"It's a pity, this is not the core fragment of the spiritual treasure. The outermost layer of the Dew-Bearing Plate is a ring of Sun Jin Jing, the inner ring is a slightly smaller silver ring cast by Moon Silver Soul, and the center is the copper plate cast by Mount Shou copper... Among them, the part cast by Mount Shou copper is the core of the spiritual treasure, which has the ability to gather the creation of heaven and earth, move with the sun and moon, and refine four kinds of spiritual medicines: Heavenly Dew, Earth Milk, Sun Essence, and Moon Brilliance."
"So one turn of the day can refine four hundred and ninety drops of immortal dew. One turn of the month can refine twelve Moon Immortal Medicines that make people fly to immortals and extend life for a thousand years. One turn of the year can refine a portion of immortal medicine, which helps Dao Venerables improve their Dao practice. The Heavenly Emperor Dragon-Controlling Pill I refined in the past is just like this! What kind of creation can be refined in one turn of sixty years is one of the biggest secrets of the Immortal Han..."
"These spiritual medicines are the result of the joint action of the Kyushu Dragon Veins of the Earth Immortal Realm, the magnificent national luck of the Immortal Han, the essence of the sun and moon, and even the immortal Qi of the Heavenly Realm."
"Now, even if the Dew-Bearing Terrace is restored, it will be difficult to create it again!"
"In contrast, the outer plate refined from Sun Jin Jing and Moon Silver Soul is just a component that condenses the essence of the sun and moon into external medicine... This silver plate fragment can only condense moon brilliance into pills, and give birth to a portion of Emperor Moon Flow Pulp every sixty years!"
Qian Chen has no greed. Although with the help of the silver plate fragment, it is possible to find more fragments of the Immortal Han Dew-Bearing Plate, but since it is someone else's opportunity, why be greedy?
He is still one of the Supreme Three Treasures!
Although in the eyes of other cultivators, compared to the Immortal Han Dew-Bearing Plate, his Dao Dust Pearl is a waste!
"Since it is a relic of the Immortal Han, I will tell Wu Hou in the future! I think with Wu Hou's magnanimity, he will not care about this little guy!"
Qian Chen dissipated the water mirror, turned back to continue his daily homework, and turned a blind eye to the Golden and Silver Boys secretly carrying his fishing rod to the outside.
A soft hum came from the darkness: "Since it's a rich man, then I don't have to be polite when I take the knife!"
"Humph! Taking moon brilliance every day, you are a talent suitable for the Guanghan Palace. Aren't you afraid of changing your constitution?"
"If the masculine Qi gradually disappears, the male body looks like a female, some people may be ecstatic, but I don't think you are this material. I will scare you another day... The essence of the sun and moon is close to the wood attribute, and it must be planted into the wood-line Heavenly Heavenly Heavenly Linggen to be fully absorbed, without sequelae! You just obediently look for the Innate Heavenly Heavenly Linggen for me!"
"I think you are also a person with great fortune and great luck. The Dew-Bearing Plate was obtained by you, and the master you found was a Golden Core cultivator who was abandoned. Maybe he is the Son of Heaven in the overseas cultivation world, born in response to luck, and should be my hard labor!"
Qian Chen's abacus in his heart rattled, although he didn't look at other people's opportunities, he framed him as this hard labor, and the whole person had to be peeled off!
Over there, He Qilang had already finished his work, and felt that the true Qi in his body had grown a bit, but there was no joy on his face.
Compared to the rapid progress when he entered the Dao, his progress now is getting slower and slower.
This made him realize that the act of planting spiritual roots and changing aptitude could no longer be delayed. Although He Qilang didn't know that this was the moon brilliance deposited in his body that was subtly changing his constitution, he didn't notice that although he traveled between the seas, his skin was getting more and more delicate, revealing a jade quality.
He didn't even think that his caution was also because his temperament was becoming more and more delicate, and he was becoming more and more feminine.
But the spiritual sense of the Dao practitioner made him instinctively look for ways to deal with this physical and mental change.
He Qilang performed the magic formula, froze a part of the moon brilliance dew on the silver mirror, turned it into ice beads the size of pearls, emitting moonlight brilliance, and carefully collected them into a jade bottle. This kind of moon brilliance spiritual dew that had been simply treated could be placed for several months before the medicinal property gradually weakened, unlike the moon brilliance that existed in the state of dew, which often evaporated if not used for a day and night.
And the remaining part of the moon brilliance dew was integrated into a bucket of spiritual spring water, and then used to irrigate the various spiritual medicines he planted in the cave dwelling. He Qilang's cultivation expenses were obtained by carefully converting them, and even greatly wasting them, before selling them to sea merchants.
Not only would he use these moon dews to plant spiritual medicines, but he would also use them to combine secret medicines to lure sea demon spiritual fish.
Compared to spiritual energy, demon objects and spiritual medicines prefer the essence of the sun and moon, so the effect is quite good.
After He Qilang finished these, he took out a small red furnace, lit the silver-thread charcoal, took out the processed various spiritual medicines, and began to try to refine the most basic Condensing Qi Pill.
Two hours later, accompanied by a black Qi breaking through the furnace cover, He Qilang skillfully poured out the black ash in the furnace, took out the jade slip and began to record the various mistakes in alchemy.
It was at this time that he suddenly realized that Qian Chen's various operations like flowing water when refining spiritual roots, he had intentionally or unintentionally imitated today when refining spiritual pills. Although some places were broken through by his accidental collision, and even understood some techniques, other times, they were—
Brain (So that's it, I can do it!)
Hand (No, you can't!)
He Qilang thought for a long time, and suddenly moved out a pot of spiritual medicine hidden in the most sunny but relatively hidden place in the medicinal garden. This spiritual medicine was one foot high, shaped like an orchid, but the three flower buds were tightly held, like small crescents.
This pot of thousand-year Miyue Orchid is one of the few spiritual medicines that is extremely suitable for moon brilliance irrigation, and it was cultivated by He Qilang for two years before it had such a fire.
Precious to the extreme!
Like the cave dwelling where their master and apprentice lived, with this orchid, it was easy to rent it for a hundred years.
He Qilang carefully held the spiritual medicine and went towards Qian Chen's cave dwelling.
He hit a letter talisman, He Qilang waited for a while, and saw the cloud and mist at the cave dwelling disperse, and the Golden and Silver Boys carried a red dragon grouper several times larger than them, fleeing in a panic towards the outside of the cave dwelling. A crystal clear silk thread flew from the cave, rolled around the waist of the two little demons, and pulled the Golden and Silver Boys into the cave dwelling.
Qian Chen's drink came from inside: "Good! You two! I haven't disciplined you for a long time, so you dare to steal my rod and play with things and lose your ambition! Today you can steal my rod, tomorrow will you dare to steal my magic treasure and mix in the world?"
"After going to the world, do you dare to be picky and look for innocent mortals to eat? If you ruin my reputation, I might as well abolish you two now!"
The Golden and Silver Boys begged eagerly, and the aggrieved screamed.
He Qilang carefully probed his feet, coughed twice at the door, and heard Qian Chen snort coldly: "Wait and discipline you!" and said to the door: "Come in!"
He Qilang tidied up his appearance before daring to push the door and enter.
But he saw Qian Chen holding a red-skinned gourd in his right hand, and the gourd mouth emitted Qi like auspicious clouds. This Qi fell into the medicinal garden, nourishing the newly planted spiritual medicines to be more fresh and energetic.
Qian Chen used a jade bottle to hold the spiritual spring water that he had seen in the gold basin and silver vessel before, and irrigated the medicinal garden once, before shouting at the Golden and Silver Boys: "Why don't you take it out and dry it?"
The Golden and Silver Boys hurriedly picked up the gold basin and other gold vessels and went to the place on the reef island where there was sunlight.
He Qilang saw this scene, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink, and a stormy sea rose in his heart.
Qian Chen noticed his restlessness, frowned slightly, and had some guesses: "It seems I guessed right. The pure spiritual energy in his flesh and blood is really the essence of the sun and moon. It is the breath that only exists after often taking the sun's ear food and the emperor's moon flow pulp!"
Qian Chen glanced at the Miyulan in his arms, signaling him to bring it forward for his own careful inspection, and replied casually: "These gold vessels are 'Dew-Gathering Sun-Essence Law-Seal' solid gold and jade objects, refined in the Central Lands by imitating the spiritual treasure Dew-Catching Plate of the ancient Immortal Han. If I let them be placed under the sunlight, they can gather the essence of the sun and moon and condense sun dew."
"This kind of spiritual object is rare! This is the bone of a deep-sea cuttlefish. After the ray swallowed it, it gradually softened. When it was refined by the ray's lightning, because the ray took some rare spiritual medicine, the medicinal property was adsorbed by the cuttlefish bone, thus refining a prototype of an inner pill!"
"If this fish is not hunted by you, after a long time, it can gradually swallow and spit this thing, absorb the essence of the sun and moon, and it is not impossible to condense into a demon pill after a hundred years!"
"This can be refined into a water-attribute spiritual root, mixed with a little thunder attribute."
"Middle-grade spiritual root, probably eight parts water, two parts thunder... This size can be refined into three parts. Two of them are the price for my shot!" Qian Chen raised his head and asked Shi Heilong: "What do you think?"
"Everything is according to Xianshi's words!" Shi Heilong said with excitement and fear.
It was He Qilang next to him who secretly clenched his fists: "Middle-grade water spiritual root, and two parts thunder spiritual root mixed in!"
