"Oh? Brother Shangguan, are you serious?" Zhou Qing's eyes condensed. He had never heard of an ancient pill formula that could nourish the spirit and refine the body.

"Of course I dare not speak nonsense." Shangguan Hong said solemnly.

Zhou Qing nodded, but did not rush to confirm. Instead, he looked around the crowd and asked, "Does anyone else have this kind of pill formula?"

Seeing that no one answered, Zhou Qing walked down the stage, came to Shangguan Hong, and bowed to him.

"Then I will trade with Brother Shangguan."

Compared with the Shangguan family's 'Divine Ape Technique', Zhou Qing was actually more interested in the pill formula.

Because he had the secret technique of condensing essence left by the Venerable Xuan Zhu, the Shangguan family's 'Divine Ape Technique' was just icing on the cake for him, not a timely help.

This ancient pill formula was different.

Zhou Qing might not be able to use the ancient pill formula that could nourish the spirit and refine the body at present, but he would definitely be able to use it in the future.

Such precious things could not be bought under normal circumstances.

Just like the first-level elixir, the most expensive one is only effective for martial artists in the bone refining realm.

For the big forces in the county city, it is not something extremely precious, but these forces will not easily take out the elixir formula.

Because it is a monopoly.

It makes it impossible for those families without foundation to cultivate alchemists.

Although cultivating alchemists requires a lot of resources, it is not something that ordinary families can cultivate.

But there are always exceptions. If someone is an alchemy genius, born to make alchemy, it is not impossible to become a formal first-level alchemist with only one-tenth or even one-twentieth of the resources of others.

However, no matter how talented a person is, it is impossible to create an elixir formula out of thin air at the beginning.

Therefore, the monopoly of the elixir formula is one of the keys to win over alchemy talents.

Shangguan Hong is willing to take out the ancient elixir formula, probably because he wants to make friends with Zhou Qing.

However, Zhou Qing dares to guess that this ancient elixir formula must have many restrictions. It is either extremely difficult to refine, or the medicinal materials for alchemy are difficult to find, or even extinct.

Such a recipe, whether it is traded or given as a favor, will not be a loss for the big forces.

"Brother is really straightforward." Shangguan Hong smiled and looked Zhou Qing up and down.

"In this case, when can you come to my house to talk?"

Generally speaking, the transaction will be a transaction where both parties determine the intention and items of the transaction, and will not directly carry the items to be exchanged.

Even if you carry it with you, it is not easy to exchange directly at the banquet, after all, this is not a trading hall.

"Why don't you go to the Han family to trade, I will be the middleman, and I guarantee that no one will suffer." Before Zhou Qing replied, Han Qingqing stood up and said.

"." Shangguan Hong was stunned and hesitated.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing hurriedly said: "Why don't we go to my residence to trade?"

"Why?" Han Qingqing was a little excited, but Zhou Qing raised his hand to stop her from continuing.

"That's fine. I'll bother you, brother." Shangguan Hong thought for a moment and agreed to this compromise.

"I'll wait for Brother Shangguan to come." Zhou Qing said with a smile, and nodded to Han Qingqing beside him, thanking her for interrupting him.

Although Shangguan Hong would not do anything out of line even if he went to Shangguan's house, he was normal, and if he had a close personal relationship with Shangguan Hong, it would be easy for some rumors to spread.

He was not afraid of gossip, but he was Wei Sheng's disciple after all, so he had to pay attention to the impact.

"." Lu Yan's lips moved, he was about to say something, but he didn't say anything in the end.

Zhou Qing returned to Lu Yan and sat down, and soon someone else came on stage.

There were quite a few rare items at the exchange meeting.

Medicinal materials, exercises, secret techniques, everything.

Some people even sold information about some secret places in Qilian Mountain, such as where strange beasts and monsters gathered.

However, no one was as generous as Zhou Qing, who directly took out the magic weapon for exchange.

It seems that the children of the wealthy families are not as rich as he imagined.

The exchange meeting soon came to an end.

After the banquet, Han Qingqing and Lu Yan invited Zhou Qing to go to the night market, but he declined.

Shangguan Hong just nodded to him, did not ask anything, and followed his companions to go first.

Zhou Qing got on the carriage and returned to the courtyard in the outer city with Lan Lan.

For Zhou Qing, the banquet was just a small episode in his hard life.

Because he revealed that he had a magic weapon at the exchange meeting, some children from wealthy families came to visit him in the next few days, wanting to exchange the magic weapon in his hand.

But they were all rejected by Zhou Qing one by one.

These people offered a lot of money, but they were not very sincere.

Even if they brought pill recipes, they were not expensive first-level pill recipes. Most of them were of no use to Zhou Qing's current practice, so Zhou Qing refused without hesitation.

With the Han family's relationship, even if these people were rejected, no one showed dissatisfaction.

However, Shangguan Hong has not come to visit since the last banquet.

Although the Shangguan family is not the top family in the county city, there are three great martial artists in the blood exchange realm in the family, which can be regarded as a first-class force in the county city.

There is no situation where he can't find out where he lives.

I don't know if they were delayed by something or are ready to wait for the price.

Anyway, Zhou Qing is not in a hurry at all.

Time passed quickly, and the new batch of fire toad wine brewed by Zhou Qing with fire cloud fungus was almost ready to be unsealed.

In half a month, he did not wait for Shangguan Hong, but waited for the frozen mutant golden silkworm to thaw.

A month and a half ago, the mutant golden silkworm swallowed a large number of blue-white spiders in the cave of the black spider venerable. These blue-white spiders were the eggs laid by the ice soul black spider many years ago. After hatching, these eggs swallowed each other and reproduced from generation to generation.

Although these blue-white spiders have been greatly degraded due to the lack of an environment suitable for growth and lack of food, they are still rare and precious blood food for the mutant golden silkworm.

After swallowing the blue-white spiders, most of the other golden silkworms were frozen to death.

Now Zhou Qing has less than 30 golden silkworms left.

However, all these golden silkworms have completed their evolution and are much stronger than before.

"Buzz buzz buzz!"

Zhou Qing released the mutant golden silkworm from the wooden king tripod. The mutant golden silkworm changed its appearance greatly at this time, from the original golden yellow to a crystal clear ice blue, with a metallic luster.

Not only that, the size of the mutant golden silkworm also changed significantly.

The mutant golden silkworm, which was originally only the size of a fist, is now as big as a human head. On the six pairs of sharp claws, dense hairs grow, emitting a faint blue light.

As the mutant golden silkworm appeared in the room, the temperature of the whole room dropped instantly.

[You have obtained a new insect - mutant golden silkworm (double-winged ice silkworm)]

[Grade: First-grade top grade (cannot evolve, can be combined)]

[Progress: Breaking the limit body (35/800)]

[Double-winged ice silkworm: The mutant golden silkworm absorbs the black ice power contained in the descendants of the ice soul black spider bloodline, and evolves through the limit. It is extremely fast, flexible and swift, and has a nearly indestructible body. It eats everything. ]

[Effect: Ice Soul Chill]

[Ice Soul Chill: Ice Silkworm Gu consumes the power of the body's origin and releases the extremely cold Ice Soul Chill, which can cause the enemy's blood and true qi to stagnate. Once exposed to the cold, the body's water will quickly lose and freeze, and it can only consume blood and true qi to resist the cold, and can ignore any defense of the horizontal training method. ]

"This is." Zhou Qing looked at the information after the evolution of the mutant golden silkworm Gu, and his eyes widened.

"Ignore the defense magic attack of the horizontal training method?!"

The ability obtained by the ice silkworm Gu can actually ignore the defense of the horizontal training method, which is equivalent to ignoring physical defense, which is similar to spell attacks.

[Your skill 'raising silkworms and picking mulberry' has been improved! ]

At this time, with the appearance of the ice silkworm Gu, the jade scepter in Zhou Qing's soul changed and bursts of divine light bloomed.

[Profession: Silkworm Breeder]

[Skill: Silkworm Breeding and Mulberry Picking]

[Progress: Reaching the pinnacle (1/800)]

As the art of silkworm breeding and mulberry picking has reached the pinnacle, the two professions on the jade scepter actually show signs of overlap.

[The current profession of 'Gu Master' overlaps with the profession of 'Silkworm Breeder'. Do you want to merge the professions?]

"This is..."

Zhou Qing's eyes widened immediately. It's another profession fusion.

"Yes!"

There was no need to hesitate at all. Zhou Qing made a choice directly.

Buzz! !

The divine light of the jade scepter was shining.

The next moment, a line of text appeared in Zhou Qing's sight.

[Gu Master (Level 1)] + [Silkworm Breeder (Level 1)] = [Silkworm Breeder Gu Master (Level 2)]

[Silkworm Breeder Gu Master: A special profession after the fusion of the 'Gu Master' profession and the 'Silkworm Breeder' profession. Although you don't have the qualifications of a Gu Master, you have the unique skill of raising silkworms. You have a pair of magical hands, and the flexibility of your hands has reached the limit of a craftsman. Your success rate will increase by 20% for anything involving the raising and refining of silkworm Gu worms. As your hands become more flexible, your skills in related areas will also be strengthened. 】

[Profession: Silkworm Gu Master (Second Level)]

[Rank: First Level Perfection]

[Skill: Raising Silkworms and Refining Gu]

[Progress: Reaching the Pinnacle (1/800)]

[Effect: Refining Gu worms, absolute control, and refining skills]

"Second-level profession!" Zhou Qing was surprised and happy. He didn't expect that after the Ice Silkworm Gu broke the limit, there would be such an unexpected surprise.

"I didn't expect that you would have such luck! An ordinary Gu worm can actually absorb the power of the descendants of the Ice Soul Black Spider bloodline. In this way, the best Gu worm to be refined into the Wood Spirit Corpse will be available."

At this time, the voice of the Black Spider sounded in Zhou Qing's heart.

This was the first time it had spoken in the past month and a half since it seized the Soul Corpse Insect Gu King. Before that, it would not have said a word unless Zhou Qing looked for it.

"You mean, if the Ice Silkworm Gu is used to refine the Wood Soul Corpse, the success rate will be greatly increased?!" Zhou Qing looked at the effect brought by the Silkworm Gu Master and suppressed his excitement.

The success rate of silkworm Gu increased by 20%, plus the 10% success rate bonus brought by the refining technique, which is an additional success rate of 30%.

If the Ice Silkworm Gu is suitable for refining with the Wood Soul Corpse, then his success rate of refining the second-level Gu is at least 60%.

Xuan Zhu said before that water produces wood, and the mutual generation of attributes can increase the success rate by 30%.

And the Gu worm with ice attribute can also play the effect of mutual generation of attributes.

Because the ice attribute itself is the mutation of water attribute and wood attribute under special circumstances.

"That's right! Your previous failure rate in refining the second-level poisonous insect was 80%, but now if you can do it according to what I said, the success rate should be 80%." Xuan Zhu said in a deep voice.

"Oh?" Zhou Qing's eyes lit up. A 60% success rate was still a little low, but if it was 80%, it would barely be enough.

"Before, except for the second-level Zhimu Lingshi, the other Gu worms in your hand could not absorb the violent ice attribute power in the Ice Soul Black Spider.

But now the Ice Silkworm Gu worm in your hand has a part of the thin ice attribute power in the Ice Soul Black Spider.

If you can refine the blood power of the Ice Soul Black Spider with gentle power, and then use it to feed the Ice Silkworm Gu worm, it is likely that you can digest the power of the Ice Soul Black Spider.

When the ice attribute power in the Ice Silkworm Gu worm is raised to the upper limit of the first-level Gu worm, then your success rate in refining the second-level Gu worm will be greatly improved.

The second-level Gu worm with ice attribute, even if it has just been refined, is not something that ordinary blood exchange realm can resist.

Although your current Zhimu Lingshi is powerful, it cannot be completely refined. If you want to control it, you have to rely on the power of the Corpse Worm Gu King, and there is always a layer between them.

If it is refined into a second-level Ice Evil Gu, it can really be used as if it were an arm."

The black spider analyzed.

"It's rare that you're so proactive." Zhou Qing nodded. Xuan Zhu's idea was roughly the same as Zhou Qing's, but he didn't know the specific refining method. Now Xuan Zhu took the initiative to speak, obviously to show goodwill.

Xuan Zhu said frankly: "I have a hunch that you are a person with great luck.

And in order to save people, you chose to stay behind and fight against the second-level Gu Master alone, which shows that you are also a person who knows how to repay kindness and keeps your word.

I will help you refine the second-level Gu worm. Can the previous offense be written off?"

"It's best if you can think so." Zhou Qing smiled.

For him now, he lacks systematic Gu Master knowledge. It's a win-win situation to be able to reconcile with Xuan Zhu.

"If one day I can become a fourth-level Gu Master, or break through the realm of Five Qis, I will give you freedom and rebuild your body for you."

After speaking, Zhou Qing added another sentence.

Although it is an empty promise, if Xuan Zhu really assists him, he will do his best without the bondage of the oath.

"Thank you." Xuan Zhu's voice became a little low.

"In order to improve the success rate of refining a second-level Gu Master, you must first try to refine some ordinary poisonous insects to improve your experience.

After so many years of development, the alchemy of warriors has also developed some tricks, which are similar to the Gu Master's Gu refining technique.

Although the alchemy technique left by the Taoist is superficial, it is just right for you to learn now.

Since you want to strengthen the ice attribute power in the ice silkworm Gu, you'd better find some pill recipes that can assist in body refining.

Although I don't know how to refine pills, there is a lot of relevant knowledge in the memory of Venerable Xuan Zhu. Maybe I can help you improve the pill recipe.

After that, dilute the essence and blood of the Ice Soul Black Spider, use it to refine pills, and give it to the Ice Silkworm Gu. It should speed up the preparations before the combined refining."

Xuan Zhu changed the subject and immediately gave Zhou Qing advice.

Zhou Qing heard this and looked thoughtful: "The formula for assisting body refining, in this case, depends on Shangguan Hong."

Since Shangguan Hong has the ancient formula, which takes into account both soul nourishment and body refining, it is just right to let the black spider improve the formula, which should be more effective than the general first-level formula.

Anyway, the blood essence of the Ice Soul Black Spider is abundant, and the blood essence used is diluted.

Thinking of this, Zhou Qing walked out of the yard, summoned Lan Lan, and asked her to go to Shangguan's house to deliver the invitation.
