Chapter 934: Worshiping Yang Mountain
Wei Wei Xuan Yin turned his head and smiled: "This is natural. Bring the people back first, and your territory will be arranged by Nephew-master Qi."
Qi Lanyan nodded with a smile and asked Kong Tingyun to go down:
"Fellow Daoist, please... go to my side pavilion first, take the sect scroll to read. A lot of things have happened in Jiangbei over the years. After you read it, I will go over with you."
Kong Tingyun had no choice but to nod and retreat silently. Qi Lanyan turned around and sighed: "This True Person Changxi was originally a person of many calculations, but he was held back by that one. In his later years, he changed his mind, which can be considered as pushing out a Zifu by relying on his savings. It was my miscalculation. If I had known that Kong Tingyun had such use at that time, I should have met Changxi earlier."
"Don't blame yourself."
Wei Wei Xuan Yin spread out the book scroll, picked up the pen and ink, and said quietly:
"It's just following the trend. Fortunately, it's not a big deal. If I really want to blame someone, I should blame myself. That year, I also visited the Great Desire Mohe to inquire about his injuries. Actually, I had also heard of this Changxi. At that time, how could I have thought that a loose cultivator from a broken family could make such a backup?"
"Whether it was a guess or a real prediction, it is ultimately handing us a handle. And this Kong Tingyun is a clever person. We have a full set of divine abilities that match her, as well as the general situation of the north and south..."
"Following us, she can climb up to the Immortal Dao Guanxie, continue the orthodoxy, obtain many resources, and take back her mountain gate. If not, she can only offend her own origin, destroy her own future, and then either wander around or endure humiliation and bow to the Solar Orthodoxy, becoming a demonic cultivator who can only continue to practice by eating people. She will see it clearly."
Clearly, this Master of Zhi Xuan Xie obviously knew True Person Changxi, but just sang a duet with his nephew. Qi Lanyan lowered his head and said respectfully: "Actually, there are many excuses, and it doesn't have to be her. It's just that she is the most suitable, and this excuse is also the most righteous and grand, and it can make the Solar Orthodoxy unable to stand on its own feet, causing them to be divided."
Wei Wei Xuan Yin frowned and said:
"Did Bai Ziyu... also participate back then?"
Qi Lanyan nodded silently, seeing the Uncle-master in the upper seat say:
"It's just right to have one more person to use, saving Jiangbei from having only his voice. As for the two people's affairs placed there, it's not good to be together. It can be considered a balance, making it easier for you to handle."
Qi Lanyan hurriedly responded and went down with thanks.
East Sea.
The scorching sky light and the dim green light came from the west. Demon King Qingyan's gaze was deep and thoughtful, while Li Ximing was silent, secretly having worries.
Coming out from Vermilion Palace, Li Ximing knew that the current matter had mostly developed into trouble for the Solar Orthodoxy. Waiting for Vermilion Palace to take the elixir, he began to plan in his heart: 'Regardless, now that there is no news, I cannot wait in vain. It is better to deal with the elixir matter as soon as possible, and then go to Qize.'
So he took 【Yuane】 from the lake, took some precious spiritual objects and magic tools, and went to Huyi to bring Qingyan out.
Not long after, he saw a man in white rising with the wind, coming face to face, slightly uneasy: "Two Fellow Daoists... how is the matter?"
Liu Zhangdie only saw Demon King Qingyan's expression, and his heart secretly understood. But seeing Li Ximing still having worries, he was puzzled and asked carefully. Only then did he see Li Ximing squeeze out a smile and reply:
"The elixir is done!"
The stone in Liu Zhangdie's heart immediately fell to the ground. If this elixir refining failed, he really didn't know how to explain it to Fuxun. Not only would he feel bad in his heart, but he would also make Fuxun and Li Ximing full of awkwardness.
Now that he was relieved, Li Ximing also adjusted his mood: 'At least the troubles are troubles topped by them. My own crisis is still in the north. Let's focus on my own family first...'
So he congratulated him twice and rose with the man and the demon. After flying for a while, Li Ximing's heart moved secretly, and he said sternly: "I have many affairs in the sea. Since this elixir is done, I won't run a trip with you. I just entrust the two Fellow Daoists to send the elixir over for me."
After all, he had already obtained his Li Fire, and the elixir he should refine had been refined. There was no need to run thousands of miles to Poluo Duo. He took out the jade bottle with the divine ability sealed and handed it to Liu Zhangdie, saying sternly:
"Be careful on the way!"
Liu Zhangdie had long seen that his complexion was wrong. Although he felt in his heart that this elixir favor should be accepted in person, he didn't persuade him much in the end. He sighed and replied: "You have worked hard... The matter of raising spiritual resources mentioned earlier... don't forget it."
Li Ximing naturally couldn't forget. 【Neck Feathers】 were good things. Grabbing the opportunity, he immediately asked: "I don't know if you go to Poluo Duo... Senior, do you have any other important matters to be busy with?"
Liu Zhangdie stroked his beard and laughed, replying: "I am just an idle person. What can I be busy with! If you can arrange your time, I will still be waiting in Fenkuai. It just so happens that I talked about a business of repairing the array there. There are plenty of days. Whenever you have free time, just come to the old place to find me."
Liu Zhangdie was sincerely helpful. He had known so many Zifu cultivators, and never had one come to help him and still wait patiently. Li Ximing was moved for a moment and sighed:
"Many thanks, Senior!"
Liu Zhangdie shook his head with a smile, stepped into the void with Qingyan, and went away. Li Ximing rode the light and galloped, soon arriving in the Wu Kingdom.
It was not Li Ximing's first time in the Wu Kingdom, but he had never been to 【Qize】 in the southernmost part of the Wu Kingdom. He saw a piece of green, dark, and heavy marshland. The morning sun was rising, reflected in the fragmented wetlands under his feet, showing pieces of golden brilliance.
He flew for a while and finally saw the 【Worshiping Yang Mountain】. It was really not tall. In Jiangnan, it could only be considered a hill. There were not many pavilions, scattered on the bare hill, without any immortal atmosphere.
As soon as he landed, someone immediately came up to greet him, leading him all the way to the top of the mountain. Sure enough, a wave of heat hit him, flames were surging, and a large tripod stood on the top of the mountain, emitting red light.
Ding Yangzi came to greet him with a look of surprise, replying: "Fellow Daoist Zhaojing! Truly a rare guest!"
So he stretched out his hand, threw the things in his hand, handed them to several cultivators on both sides to look after, and led him down to a small building on the side.
This building was really simple, as if it had been scorched by fire twice, not very beautiful, with only a few tables and chairs. Ding Yangzi poured tea and asked:
"Fellow Daoist, is the elixir done?"
This old man didn't speak as freely and beautifully as in the letter, appearing quite upright. Li Ximing didn't talk nonsense with him, took out a jade box from his sleeve, and pushed it over gently.
Ding Yangzi opened the jade box, looked at it carefully, and finally smiled, saying repeatedly: "Fellow Daoist has truly amazing elixir skills!"
Li Ximing smiled and replied, understanding that this True Person also had no idle talk, let alone too many flattering words, and acted decisively. So he revealed a piece of scaly armor from his hand and arched his hands: "Senior, please take a look!"
Ding Yangzi was quite satisfied, accepted the elixir in the box, and took the 【Yuane】. First, he stroked it with his divine ability, and then urged it with magic power, making the scales stand up one by one.
He frowned and said:
"【Desert Profound Heaven Iron】, 【Huangyuan Stone】, 【Wolf Qilin Bone】, 【He Bai Feather】, using true fire."
With just this glance, he actually saw the materials used when this scaly armor was refined cleanly. He looked at it back and forth twice and said bluntly:
"Except for 【Desert Profound Heaven Iron】, there is nothing that can be on the table... The refining method can be considered standard."
Li Ximing was not surprised, just secretly bitter.
When the Li family obtained this Dharma garment back then, it could be said to be a treasure. But from the current height, unless it was an ancient magic tool, other things were ultimately a step behind. Not to mention that this thing was originally modified from the armor of the Murong family cultivator 【Desert Profound Armor】... The cultivators of Qingchi were ordered to refine it. Except for the 【Desert Profound Heaven Iron】 that came with it, what good things would they give? He couldn't help shaking his head and replied: "According to Fellow Daoist, how should this thing be changed?"
Ding Yangzi looked at it back and forth and replied:
"This appearance... it's hard to say it's barely enough to refine a spiritual embryo. Except for 【Desert Profound Heaven Iron】, other parts cannot be kept. It's better to melt this thing, take out the 【Desert Profound Heaven Iron】, and refine it again..."
Li Ximing pondered slightly, touched his storage bag at his waist, and scattered many things, piling them up on the table goldenly. Ding Yangzi swept his sleeve and only picked out a few items.
Among them, two were gifts from other families when Li Zhouwei was Zifu. The ones selected were all sent by the Solar Orthodoxy, namely 【Mingguang Scale】 and 【Hua Yi Stone Bone】. The remaining two were a knife and a gun, both ancient magic tools, namely 【Yuan Cha】 and 【Ming Zhu】—obtained from Bai Yinzi, magic tools of the Mifan Orthodoxy.
'These are the only things that can be on the table...'
Ding Yangzi took the 【Ming Zhu】 to look at it, praised it, turned around and said:
"Dismantle these few things, and you can gather some materials. As for other things, it depends on your clan. Now that these things are created, there is no Zifu-level thing in it, so it will inevitably not touch the edge of a spiritual weapon. At most, customize a good magic tool and hand it to Fellow Daoist to refine the spiritual embryo."
Fortunately, Li Ximing came for the sake of discussing in advance, and said sternly:
"Now I show Fellow Daoist a style, thinking of building it according to this type of scaly armor. After all, the spiritual weapon in Fellow Daoist's hands has not been refined, and things are still far away... If Fellow Daoist has any suitable materials, or in the transaction with cultivators... and has seen any suitable things, change them for my family first. It is a long-term plan!"
Ding Yangzi stroked his beard, nodded thoughtfully, and replied: "I still have a small portion of 【Little Heaven Li Gold】 in my hand, which was left over from building sword ornaments for the Sword Immortal. It barely counts as suitable, but it is too precious... As for Bright Yang spiritual objects and spiritual resources... I have none in my hand."
"It's not urgent for a moment."
The Li family originally had a Zifu resource sent by the Kong family, which was also scales, but it was Kan Water and could not be used. Li Ximing took out a brocade box from his sleeve, revealed the white stone like a pearl, and said in a low voice:
"This is the 【Six Phase Spiritual Stone】 of the 'True Qi' Dao. True Qi is suitable for all Daos, and it should also be useful. It can be used as an alternative."
Ding Yangzi then had a look of consideration. Li Ximing showed it to him and put it away, then took out another box, in which three white long feathers like metal were placed. Li Ximing said sternly: "This item is 【Neck Feathers】. I pledge it to Fellow Daoist, firstly to show sincerity, and secondly... if anyone comes to cast treasures, if Fellow Daoist sees suitable spiritual resources, please change them for me!"
Li Ximing understood in his heart that just like himself, an alchemist, who had seen many Zifu spiritual resources for consumption, the refining materials that the other party could see must be much more than his own. Searching for them at the ends of the world was not as good as exchanging them with him! Anyway, the other party had already agreed to design for his family, so he simply gave up a bit of face and handed the matter to the other party.
Ding Yangzi saw his intention, took the jade box in his hand, and the two exchanged jade talismans. The old man stroked his beard and said: "I understand..."
Li Ximing smiled and said in a low voice:
"If you have anything you can use me for, just ask..."
He changed the subject and said sternly: "As for the 'Upper Witch' spiritual embryo that Fellow Daoist promised me back then... is there any news now?"
Ding Yangzi shook his head and said:
"How can it be so fast!"
Li Ximing himself used the quick refining method of the Guanxie faction and used the spiritual extract of the Xiukui Dao to accelerate it. Ding Yangzi's orthodoxy was different, and it was absolutely impossible to spend any spiritual extract for him. Naturally, it took too long. Li Ximing realized it and secretly felt heartache: 'My family has had two major events in a row, and I had to get the spiritual embryo out in advance, which cost two portions of 【Xiang Bai Yang Shou】 spiritual extract... If I hadn't been so urgent at that time, saving two portions to refine the armor now would be the right thing...'
But he didn't have time to think more. A sound came from outside the pavilion. Ding Yangzi excused himself and soon welcomed someone in. The old man's face changed immediately, showing a look of coldness, and he said coldly:
"The person is right here... ask yourself!"
Li Ximing watched the person who came in with gray hair, draped in a black robe with brown circular holes, and recognized him immediately, laughing: "Fellow Daoist Luo, how have you been lately!"
"So it is Brother Zhaojing!"
This person was the demonic cultivator True Person Luo from the Southern Border. Seeing him, he had joy on his face, and then looked at him with some surprise: "Sure enough, it is the Dao of Growth. Fellow Daoist's Dharma body has actually recovered!"
The other party probably expected that he would not be willing to take medicine. Li Ximing actually took the elixir, but wealth should not be revealed, so he laughed it off. Sure enough, True Person Luo really had ideas about that spiritual embryo:
"I have passed by this place several times and saw the treasure on the altar... truly envious..."
Li Ximing suddenly remembered something, refused him with a smile, and didn't give the other party time to ask more, only saying: "Fellow Daoist, look!"
He turned out something in his hand, which was heavy flowing clouds stacked in the box, in which faint yellow-white brilliance was released. It was the 【Miao Hui Beard】 gifted by Liu Zhangdie! 【Miao Hui Beard】 was a spiritual object of the 'Gathering Wood' Dao, and in Jiangnan, the only 'Gathering Wood' orthodoxy that Li Ximing knew was him alone.
Sure enough, True Person Luo saw this spiritual object, and his smiling eyes were stunned. He looked at it carefully for a while and said with quite a bit of surprise:
"【Miao Hui Beard】... Fellow Daoist has been to the West Sea?"
These Zifu figures all had quite a bit of research on the origin of their own orthodoxy. He broke it in one word. Li Ximing was not willing to reveal Liu Zhangdie, only saying:
"Obtained by chance, can Fellow Daoist use it?"
"To say it's useless, that's impossible."
True Person Luo seemed to be studying the quality. It took a long time before he opened his mouth absent-mindedly, but his eyes did not move away from the spiritual resources:
"Fellow Daoist, put yourself in my shoes. If you saw a Bright Yang spiritual resource, even if there is no use for it at the moment, wouldn't you get it? It's nothing more than a matter of price..."
Li Ximing knew this person was cunning, laughed secretly in his heart, just put the jade box together, and sighed:
"So that's it... I thought it was rare to meet Fellow Daoist, and I happened to have spiritual resources of the same path! It turns out there is no use for it at the moment!"
