Chapter 336: Elder Meng

"Spiritual stones."

"Contribution points."

Wang Yu muttered twice.

According to the introduction in the jade slip, he didn't want to let go of any of these resources that could increase the cultivation speed of the Red Sun Great Technique, but the spiritual stones and Luori Sect contribution points required were naturally a bottomless pit.

During the Qi Refinement Stage, he openly used his identity as a first-rank refiner to refine a large number of entry-rank magic artifacts to exchange for sect contribution points, and privately used his identity as a first-rank alchemist to refine various entry-rank pills to exchange for a large number of spiritual stones, which could satisfy his daily cultivation needs.

But after Foundation Establishment, his mere first-rank refiner and first-rank alchemist abilities were far from enough to satisfy his cultivation needs, not to mention that he was practicing the "gold-swallowing beast" technique of the Red Sun Great Technique.

It seems he must become a second-rank refiner and second-rank alchemist as soon as possible.

He had already learned the standard for a second-rank refiner from Master Sun, and with the help of the Taiyuan System login hall, it didn't seem like a very difficult thing, but if he wanted to master some second-rank refining techniques faster, it would be best to have a second-rank refiner personally point him in the right direction.

Second-rank refiner!

Wang Yu's expression stirred, and he suddenly remembered something.

Just at this moment, with a "puff" on a nearby wall, a mass of light-blue light flickered, and a pale yellow talisman emerged from inside.

This talisman circled a few times, seemingly wanting to fly to Wang Yu, but was wrapped in blue light and couldn't leave the wall even half an inch.

Wang Yu didn't think, moved his arm, and pointed a finger at the talisman from a distance.

With a "hiss," the talisman transformed into a mass of fire and burned on its own.

"Haha, I heard that Junior-Wang Wang Shidi has become our sect's exchange disciple, so I, Gu, have come to visit." A familiar man's laughter came from the firelight.

Gu Lian!

Wang Yu couldn't help but show a trace of a smile, collected the jade slip in his hand, got up, and left the secret room.

Not long after, in the cave dwelling hall.

Wang Yu and a man in a yellow robe sat in the host and guest seats, talking with smiles on their faces.

"Tsk tsk, how long has it been? Junior-Wang Wang Shidi has not only become a true disciple but also succeeded in Foundation Establishment. You are worthy of being a friend I, Gu Lian, value." Gu Lian said, clicking his tongue.

Ten-plus years later, Gu Lian's appearance hadn't changed at all; instead, he looked two or three years younger, and at the same time, his powerful aura was revealed, and he had also become a Foundation Establishment early-stage cultivator.

"I have only just succeeded in Foundation Establishment. Instead, Senior-Brother Gu succeeded in Foundation Establishment seven or eight years ago, and I heard that you can firmly rank in the top three among many true disciples." Wang Yu replied with a smile.

He naturally learned about Gu Lian's affairs from Xin Geng.

"Lucky, lucky. I didn't expect that after Foundation Establishment, I would awaken another bloodline innate ability; otherwise, according to my true strength, I could only rank in the middle among the true disciples.

However, I, Gu, can have today, all thanks to Junior-Wang Wang Shidi's help back then." Gu Lian replied with a smile.

"The matter back then was just a transaction; Senior-Brother Gu doesn't need to mention it.

Being able to awaken another bloodline innate ability, could it be because of the Blood Spirit Pill exchanged back then?" Wang Yu looked Gu Lian up and down twice more and asked with curiosity.

"It is indeed the effect of this pill, but it failed to let my bloodline awaken for the second time, which is a bit of a pity." Gu Lian looked somewhat regretful.

Wang Yu was somewhat speechless when he heard the other party say this, but his curiosity about that Blood Spirit Pill grew even more.

I heard that this pill was refined by a second-rank alchemist of the Qianzhu Sect; after he becomes a second-rank alchemist, it is not impossible to try refining it.

"By the way, Junior-Wang Wang Shidi, a true disciple like you coming to our Luori Sect to exchange techniques, I'm afraid you chose that Red Sun Great Technique, right?" Gu Lian suddenly changed the topic.

"Not bad, I did choose this technique and even exchanged for the first level of the cultivation formula." Wang Yu nodded and replied without hiding it.

"The Red Sun Great Technique is our sect's town-sect technique. Junior-Brother is fire-attribute spirit root-based, so choosing this technique to practice is not impossible. But exchange disciples can only stay in the Luori Sect for three years; if you haven't entered within a year, it's best to hurry up and change to other techniques." Gu Lian said slowly, his expression becoming more serious.

Clearly, this Luori Sect true disciple also didn't look favorably on Wang Yu practicing the Red Sun Great Technique.

"Oh, is the Red Sun Great Technique really so difficult to practice?" Wang Yu frowned and asked.

"Does Junior-Wang Wang Shidi know how many of our sect's top ten true disciples are still practicing the Red Sun Great Technique?" Gu Lian asked back.

"Listening to Senior-Brother Xin, it seems there are three." Wang Yu replied noncommittally.

"Not bad, there are three true disciples still practicing this technique, including our sect's true disciple number one, Senior-Brother You Tian, who possesses 'Spirit-Connecting Flame Bones.'

These three have better cultivation aptitude than me, but apart from Senior-Brother You who has practiced the Red Sun Great Technique to the sixth level, the other two have been trapped at the fourth level of the Red Sun Great Technique for many years and have yet to show signs of breaking through to the fifth level.

Besides this, other true disciples including me, after succeeding in Foundation Establishment, have all chosen to practice the Red Sun Great Technique, but we couldn't even enter, and later we could only change to other techniques." Gu Lian said seriously.

"Thank you, Senior-Brother Gu, for your advice. If I cannot enter this technique, I will definitely know when to retreat." Wang Yu's eyes flashed, and he replied cautiously.

"I knew Junior-Wang Wang Shidi is a smart person. By the way, does Junior-Wang Wang Shidi still remember Elder Meng, who is our sect's second-rank refining master?

Junior-Brother promised back then that you would come to our sect to visit Elder Meng, but after the Jialan trial, you never returned. He has already blown his nose and stared at me many times." Gu Lian suddenly mentioned another matter.

"Senior Meng, I naturally remember. He once made an appointment with me to meet at the Luori Sect, intending to point out my refining arts. Is Senior-Brother Gu very familiar with Elder Meng?" Wang Yu said with surprise.

"Of course I am familiar. I once served as a refining apprentice under Elder Meng for a period of time, but unfortunately, I didn't have much aptitude in this area and couldn't even refine entry-rank magic artifacts.

Actually, another person Junior-Wang Wang Shidi knows is even more familiar with Elder Meng, which is also the reason why Elder Meng asked you to come to the Luori Sect." Gu Lian showed a meaningful expression.

"Another person?" Wang Yu blinked, but he wasn't too surprised.

After all, this second-rank refining master, as soon as he saw him, wanted to make an appointment for him to meet at the Luori Sect; it must be for some reason.

"Naturally, it is my uncle, Master Sun.

Junior-Brother doesn't know yet, right? Before my uncle joined the Four Symbols Sect, his refining arts only entered the door after receiving Elder Meng's guidance. In a sense, your refining arts are also passed down from Elder Meng's lineage, so you can be considered Elder Meng's refining grand-disciple." Gu Lian said with a smile that wasn't a smile.

"There is such a thing! So that's it. I was wondering why Senior Meng would make such an appointment.

It's bad. After parting at the Jialan Secret Realm that day, I was busy with cultivation and Foundation Establishment, and I didn't have time to come to the Luori Sect to see Senior Meng. I'm afraid I have offended him greatly." Wang Yu was first stunned, then realized and hesitated. ===== CHAPTER 337 =====
