Chapter 73: Refining Top-Grade Magic Treasure

"I have indeed heard people say that Mount Bai Long, after all, is also the territory of Chen Chen Laozu. Every few decades, Chen Chen Laozu will refine a furnace of Foundation Establishment pills. It is normal for Foundation Establishment pills to flow to Mount Bai Long.

It's just that precious spirit items like Foundation Establishment pills are really too rare. The Mount Bai Long marketplace has been established for decades, and I have only heard that it appeared once. Whether it will be taken out at this exchange meeting, I don't know. Fellow Daoist Song came here, I think you are also helping others inquire about this matter, right?"

After Shi Chun finished speaking, he also looked at Song Qingming thoughtfully.

Hearing the speculative words in Shi Chun's mouth, Song Qingming did not explain, just nodded with a smile.

Shi Chun also smiled knowingly and continued: "Precious spirit items of the level of Foundation Establishment pills are not easy to find in the Wei Kingdom. Besides the Xiaoyao Sect, there are only two or three places where you can have a chance to find them. This completely depends on luck."

"Brother Shi, besides Mount Bai Long, where else is there news of Foundation Establishment pills? Brother Shi is knowledgeable, please give me some advice." After flattering, Song Qingming continued to ask.

"Besides the Yangshan marketplace, the places where Foundation Establishment pills have appeared in these decades, the only ones I know are the Mount Tiexian Valley bordering the Chen Kingdom, and the Taiyuehu marketplace by the Three Dragon River. Precious items like Foundation Establishment pills worth ten thousand spirit stones will cause a sensation once they appear. It is very easy for you to inquire about this if you go to the marketplace to inquire."

After Shi Chun finished speaking, he also simply introduced the situation of these two places to Song Qingming, but these two places, in fact, he had not been there personally, and the information he knew was entirely introduced by other loose cultivator fellow daoists who had been there.

After listening, Song Qingming could not help but feel a burst of excitement and also fell into a short contemplation.

The Yangshan marketplace was the largest marketplace in the Wei Kingdom, located at the foot of Guyang Mountain, the mountain gate of the Xiaoyao Sect. It was also one of the important industries of the Xiaoyao Sect. Song Qingming naturally knew that Foundation Establishment pills could be exchanged here.

The Mount Tiexian Valley and Taiyuehu, these two places were ten thousand li away from Guiyunfang and Qinghe County. Although Song Qingming had heard of these two places, he did not know much about them.

According to Shi Chun's later introduction, the actual situation of these two places was actually not much different from the Mount Bai Long marketplace, and they were also places where various forces were intertwined. It was just that the distance of ten thousand li would take at least half a year for his Qi Refining stage walking speed to go there. Without sufficient preparations, he did not dare to run so far away casually. If he wanted to inquire about news of Foundation Establishment pills, it seemed he would have to find other methods later.

"Brother Song, I don't know when you plan to return to Guiyunfang? Do you want to be a companion with me, so we can take care of each other on the road." Shi Chun's words soon interrupted Song Qingming's thoughts and instantly pulled him back to reality.

Song Qingming collected his thoughts and answered: "Next, I still have to refine magic treasures in the cave dwelling, and it is estimated that it will take two or three days. If Brother Shi is not in a hurry, why not wait for me for a few days, and then we will return to Guiyunfang together. What does Brother Shi think?"

"Very well, then it's settled. I still have to go to the venue to wander around for a while to see if there are any suitable spirit items. I won't disturb Brother Song."

"Okay, then I will congratulate Fellow Daoist Shi first for getting what you wish."

The two agreed on the time to leave. Seeing that Song Qingming was willing to go together, Shi Chun was also very happy, and then left Song Qingming's cave dwelling.

For Song Qingming, although he was alone when he came and did not encounter any danger, he would naturally not refuse to return together with an acquaintance.

Not long after Shi Chun left, Song Qingming soon adjusted his own state and prepared to start refining the Tianluo Umbrella.

Having had the experience of failing to refine the Taixu Sword last time, Song Qingming always felt somewhat uneasy in his heart about refining top-grade magic treasures, and was still somewhat afraid that he would damage the magic treasure he had finally bought again.

Although he had learned several skills now and had quite a few methods to earn spirit stones, losing one hundred and fifty spirit stones at once would still make him feel very painful.

Three days later, Song Qingming in the cave dwelling looked proudly at a yellow spirit umbrella that was constantly spinning in the air, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

As Song Qingming's spiritual power moved, the yellow spirit umbrella also quickly closed, shrank to three inches in size, turned into a yellow spiritual light, and quickly disappeared into the storage bag at Song Qingming's waist.

What Song Qingming did not expect was that this refining of the Tianluo Umbrella was unexpectedly smooth, and it only took Song Qingming less than two days to successfully refine this magic treasure.

After refining the Tianluo Umbrella, Song Qingming stayed in the cave dwelling for another day. Until he was very familiar with this magic treasure, he opened the cave dwelling door.

After walking out of the cave dwelling, Song Qingming first went to find Shi Chun. After agreeing with him, Song Qingming went to the marketplace again, directly returned the cave dwelling he rented, and then walked into a teahouse in the marketplace.

Although the Mount Bai Long Grand Event had ended for two days, looking at the bustling flow of people outside the window, quite a few cultivators in the marketplace had not left here, and it was still a scene of unusual prosperity, almost the same as when Song Qingming arrived.

After waiting for the time of a cup of tea, Shi Chun finally arrived here. However, what made Song Qingming somewhat surprised was that there was also a black-clothed woman wearing a veil standing beside Shi Chun. It looked like the two of them should have come here together.

"Brother Song, let me introduce you. This is Fellow Daoist Yu from Duanyun Mountain. She is also a good friend I have known for many years. I heard that we are going to return today and want to go back to Guiyunfang with us. I think having one more person can also provide one more care, so I promised without authorization. Brother Song, what do you think?"

Seeing the look of doubt on Song Qingming's face, Shi Chun hurriedly introduced this woman to him. The black-clothed woman also nodded slightly and greeted Song Qingming.

"Brother Shi is too polite. Since she is someone you are familiar with, I naturally have no opinion on my side."

There were also quite a few loose cultivators near Guiyunfang who took root on the numerous spirit veins near the marketplace. Song Qingming had been in Guiyunfang for almost two years and roughly knew the location of this spirit mountain in Shi Chun's mouth.

After the two entered the door, Song Qingming also carefully sized up this woman. Seeing that her cultivation was also at the fifth layer of Qi Refining, going together could not be considered a burden to the two of them. Song Qingming naturally did not refuse Shi Chun's proposal.

After the three became companions, they soon left Mount Bai Long and rushed toward the east like lightning.

Along the way, the three were somewhat nervous. Coming to Mount Bai Long this time, when they left, they all carried quite a few spirit items, and they were all somewhat afraid of being targeted by people with intentions. However, this black-clothed woman, whose cultivation was lower than his two, always liked to walk in front of them, which made Song Qingming somewhat strange.

After walking for five days, just as the three were about to reach the vicinity of the Guiyunfang territory, the black-clothed woman who was walking in front suddenly shouted softly to Song Qingming and the other two behind.

"Two fellow daoists, wait a moment. There seems to be a demonic beast coming in front."

As soon as Song Qingming and Shi Chun heard the black-clothed woman's words, their somewhat relaxed nerves suddenly tightened again.

"I didn't feel the aura of a demonic beast here. Could Fellow Daoist Yu have made a mistake?" Song Qingming looked forward, did not see anything within his line of sight, and asked somewhat puzzled.

"Brother Song doesn't know, Fellow Daoist Yu has practiced a spiritual eye divine ability and can see scenes a thousand zhang away. Fellow Daoist Yu, have you seen clearly what demonic beast it is?" Shi Chun explained to Song Qingming, then turned and asked the black-clothed woman.

"It's a mid-tier Rending Bear. Do the two fellow daoists want to solve the demonic beast first before moving forward?"
