Forging Immortality through the Dao Seed
Chapter 21: His arsenic and my honey (additional update)
There is a room in front of the Dharma Instrument Pavilion.
Zhang Jing slowly approached and looked at the building.
It's called a pavilion, but it's actually just a shop, with an area only slightly larger than the drug store I opened in Yong'an City.
Of course, one sells magic weapons and the other sells medicinal herbs.
Naturally, the two cannot be compared.
When I was about to go inside.
Zhang Jing suddenly heard the sound of arguing coming from the Magical Instrument Pavilion.
boom! boom!
The table was banged loudly.
Uncle, there's something wrong with the magic weapon you're selling. There's a forbidden spiritual power pattern inside that's blocked. Why don't you compensate me with spiritual stones? Three spiritual stones. Come on, just treat me as a loss and pay a high price. I’ll buy you this magical weapon.”
The voice sounds a little childish, but the tone is full of resistance and accusation against unscrupulous profiteers!
Oh, little Linglong, even if you want to earn spiritual stones, you can't catch your Uncle Chen trying to die alone.
A slightly helpless voice sounded.
How many times have you said this this month? The magic weapon was fine when it was sold, but it will be broken the next day when you get it. Either there is something wrong here, or there is something wrong there.
What's even more annoying is that every time I pay you the spiritual stone, hey, guess what, the next day you go out to set up a stall with an intact magic weapon.
Coincidences, these are all coincidences.
The childish voice argued, but the voice became smaller and smaller, obviously not very confident.
In the end, he could only say depressedly: I suffered a big loss today! For one spiritual stone, you can just compensate me with one spiritual stone.
impossible......
...
Seeing that the door was open and the argument inside didn't seem to stop, Zhang Jing simply stopped waiting and walked straight into the Magical Instrument Pavilion.
Ji Bochang followed him closely.
Tread——
The moment Zhang Jing's footsteps sounded, silence returned inside.
Then he felt two eyes falling on him, one after the other.
Shopkeeper, how do you sell magic weapons here? Zhang Jing asked lightly with a slight smile on his face, looking straight at the two eyes.
All the decorations in the Magical Instrument Pavilion come into view.
There are display cabinets on both sides, which are filled with various magic weapons. There are descriptions next to each magic weapon, including the level, effect, material, price, etc. of the magic weapon.
Looks very detailed.
However, Zhang Jing did not feel the spiritual power fluctuations on these magical artifacts. It seems that they are not real magical artifacts, but samples that are only for guests to view and select.
In the middle is a counter.
At this moment, a middle-aged man and a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old were standing inside and outside the counter.
Apparently it was these two people who were arguing inside just now.
Seeing business coming to the door, the shopkeeper walked out of the counter.
Fellow Taoist, all the magic weapons in the store are displayed on the cabinets on both sides. You can take a look first. If you like something, you might as well-Master Ji, what kind of wind brought you here today?
Halfway through his words, the shopkeeper suddenly spotted Ji Bochang behind Zhang Jing and greeted him hurriedly and happily.
Seeing this, Ji Bochang waved his hand and said without any fluctuation in his expression: Shopkeeper Chen, I am accompanying Brother Zhang to purchase magic weapons today. He is your customer. Don't do it the other way around.
Haha, it should be like this, it should be like this. After saying that, shopkeeper Chen quickly turned around, bowed his hands to Zhang Jing in front of him, and said apologetically: It was my fault just now. I hope that Mr. Zhang will be a millionaire. Don't blame me. If you want to buy any magic weapon or have any requirements, just ask.
But at this time.
Uncle Chen, I'm leaving first. The half-grown girl said softly to the shopkeeper and left quickly holding a knife-shaped magic weapon.
Waiting until the girl's back disappeared, the shopkeeper looked at Zhang Jing again and said apologetically:
Mr. Zhang, please forgive me, my niece is a bit shy.
The shopkeeper was not exposed.
Zhang Jing focused all his attention on the magic weapon and asked: Shopkeeper, how do you sell defensive magic weapons here?
That's right, a defensive weapon!
After some hard thinking, Zhang Jing finally decided to give priority to purchasing defensive magic weapons.
After all, you only have one life.
I have the mysterious jade talisman as my support. As long as I don't die, my future will be bright.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with the new skill feature that appeared after the mid-level Dharma Gate Wuzang Jie Yinshui Yuanzhu was upgraded to the first level - Wufa Linghe.
Defensive magic weapon? The shopkeeper pondered for a moment, and then asked, May I ask, Mr. Zhang, which grade of magic weapon you want? To be honest, I only have low-grade defensive magic weapons here. I wonder if it meets your requirements?
What low-grade defensive weapons are there?
Zhang Jing's interest was suddenly raised.
Please come with me.
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he took Zhang Jing to a display cabinet and began to introduce each item in detail.
This magical weapon is called the 'Golden Light Shield'. It contains a diamond spiritual light restriction. When resisting an opponent's attack, the golden light shield will emit dazzling golden light and disrupt the enemy's sight. Mr. Zhang, are you satisfied?
Haha, it's okay, it's okay. Zhang Jing nodded stiffly.
To put it bluntly, this shield will glow when hit.
The taunts are overwhelming. I use this thing because I am afraid that I will not die quickly enough.
Was such a weird magic weapon made by that genius master? No wonder even the description of the magical weapon above has accumulated a layer of dust.
This magical weapon is called the 'Hundred Skillful Cloak'...
This magical weapon is called...
After some careful selection, Zhang Jing finally chose a low-grade magic weapon, the Cloud Water Shield, which seemed to have normal functions and whose attributes matched his own spiritual power.
The asking price is thirty spirit stones.
in front of the counter.
Zhang Jing took out the spirit stone and asked with a smile: Shopkeeper, that girl just now is not your niece, right?
well--
The shopkeeper sighed after hearing this, and then explained: I know that I can't hide it from geniuses like Mr. Zhang. This little girl is a hard-working person. Her parents had an accident while practicing, and she and her three-year-old brother are the only ones left at home. , we old neighbors also help us whenever we can.
Don't look at this girl's miserable life, but her spirit is high. She keeps clamoring to save spiritual stones every day and send her brother to a Taoist temple to practice in the future.
I see.
A hint of emotion flashed in Zhang Jing's eyes.
Then shopkeeper, let's take our leave first.
After saying that, Zhang Jing and Ji Bochang turned around and left the Magical Instrument Pavilion.
It didn't take a while.
The little girl who had just left turned back again and argued hard to get the spiritual stone she should have received as compensation.
After receiving the spirit stone, she asked:
Uncle Chen, who were those two people just now? Why were they so generous? Thirty spirit stones, thirty spirit stones in total. They took them out as soon as they were told, without even changing their expressions.
That Young Master Ji is a member of a cultivating family, and has passed the Taoist Academy's examination and became a Taoist Academy disciple. His future is limitless!
As for Mr. Zhang, this is my first time meeting him, but from what I can see, Mr. Zhang is the leader among the two. I guess he is also a disciple of the Taoist Academy, and his identity must not be simple.
Shopkeeper Chen analyzed carefully.
He lowered his head and saw a look of longing in the girl's eyes, and said cheerfully: Hey, my little brother will definitely become a disciple of the Taoist Academy in the future. He may be as generous when buying magical weapons in the future.
so good.
...
the other side.
Zhang Jing and Ji Bo often walked through the crowded and narrow alleys and entered the central avenue of the city.
Walking along this avenue to the end, you will see a beautiful three-story pavilion building with gold carvings and jade.
Miaodan Pavilion? Brother Ji, are you going to buy elixirs here?
Zhang Jing asked curiously.
Yes, Brother Zhang, this Miaodan Pavilion is opened by the seventh-ranked alchemy team in the outer courtyard. It has a complete range of elixirs and the quality is all high-quality. It is a bit expensive, but you can take it with confidence.
Ji Bochang explained patiently.
Zhang Jing nodded when he heard this and didn't say much.
He already had the spiritual weapon he wanted to buy this time, and there was nothing special he needed. And there are still fifteen spirit stones left, which is not too much, not too much.
Zhang Jing naturally lost his mind.
But it was already here, so he simply followed Ji Bochang into the Miaodan Pavilion with a knowledgeable attitude.
As soon as the two entered the door, a maid came to greet them and said sweetly:
Welcome, brothers, I wonder if Miaodan Pavilion can help you in any way?
Is there a purple elixir? Ji Bochang asked.
The maid smiled and stretched out her hand to signal Zhang Jing and Zhang Jing to follow her, and said at the same time: Two senior brothers, the Purple Spirit Pill is one of the top spiritual pills refined by the alchemist of Qianfa Pavilion in the Taoist Academy. The pill is extremely gentle. It's pure, and you don't have to worry about contaminating the spiritual power of your Dantian after taking it, so it's extremely precious, and we don't have much left here.
With that said, the three of them came to a counter.
Under the counter, in a transparent jade bottle, five purple elixirs shimmered with precious light, looking truly extraordinary.
Is that all there is? Ji Bochang was a little disappointed.
Senior brother, you must also know how precious the Purple Spirit Pill is. We only have a quota of these five in recent days. If you are in urgent need of the pill to break through your cultivation, it is not a bad idea to use a small amount of the Purple Spirit Pill. The effect is the same as that of the Purple Spirit Pill. The elixir is almost the same, and it’s even cheaper.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Bochang glanced at the maid meaningfully and said slowly:
Although the effect of Yunling Pill is good, the impurities in the pill will seep into the Dantian, making the spiritual power in the body impure and difficult to recover. Except for those casual practitioners, who would take Yunling Pill to assist in practice? Are they crazy?
Just five pills, I want them all.
Zhang Jing on the side couldn't help but was speechless after hearing this.
He just saw the price. One purple spirit pill costs twenty spirit stones, which is equivalent to a magic weapon. But the wealthy man in front of him packed up all five purple elixirs and bought them without even blinking.
Just highlight the arrogance!
Then he thought that he would have to go through all the trouble to even buy a magic weapon... Well, the spiritual stone in his hand was also related to Ji Bochang, so that would be fine.
etc! Zhang Jing suddenly reacted.
Did the maid and Ji Bochang just mention a pill called Yunling Pill?
The effect of the Purple Spirit Pill is comparable to that of twenty spirit stones, but the price is only——
Zhang Jing glanced at the counter in front of him unconsciously, and then found the label of Yunling Pill in the corner.
Two spiritual stones and one!
And the side effect is just that impurities in the elixir seep into the Dantian, making the spiritual power impure?
This side effect may be scary to others, but to Zhang Jing, who has the spiritual light of gathering energy, it seems to be just that.
After all, one of the main functions of the Juyuan Spiritual Light is to remove spiritual impurities from the Dantian and continuously purify the spiritual power.
That is equivalent to - I can buy precious purple spirit pills for the price of only two spirit stones, and there is no limit to them.
He still has fifteen spirit stones, which can buy seven 'purple spirit pills'!
As a result, those geniuses who received funding from the task team would completely lose their resource advantage in front of Zhang.
There was a hint of excitement in Zhang Jing's eyes, but he calmed down again in an instant.
Before that, he had to confirm how quickly the Juyuan Spiritual Light could remove the spiritual impurities in the Dantian.
Don't eat all seven spirit-accumulating pills in this month. As a result, it took Juyuan Lingguang more than ten years to slowly remove all these impurities from the spiritual power of the Dantian, which is not worth the loss.
Buy one to test the water first.
Zhang Jing made up his mind.
Outside the gate of Miaodan Pavilion.
Ji Bochang contentedly put the Purple Spirit Pill he bought into his storage bag, then looked at Zhang Jing and said, Brother Zhang, there will be a ghost market opening here tonight. I want to go see it. Do you want to come with me?
No, Brother Ji. Zhang Jing shook his head and refused.
Haha, if that's the case, then Brother Zhang can only go back today alone.
Brother Ji, just leave.
Brother Zhang, say goodbye!
After saying that, Ji Bochang turned around and walked towards the depths of Fangshi.
Zhang Jing, on the other hand, had just walked a few steps before quietly returning to the Miaodan Pavilion. Under the strange look in the maid's eyes, he spent a huge sum of two spirit stones to buy a spirit-accumulating pill.
After collecting the elixir.
Zhang Jing followed his memory and came to the southwest corner of Fang City.
Longzefang City has a training room here, which is used to verify the effects of Yunling Pill and Yuan Gathering Spiritual Light.
Not long after.
He rented a high-end training room in a relatively remote location.
I spent another spiritual stone, which was extremely expensive.
However, there is nothing that can be done. Temporary renting for one day like Zhang Jing's is definitely relatively expensive. If you rent it for a long time, it will be spread evenly every day, but it will not be so expensive.
But you get what you pay for.
After entering the training room, Zhang Jing suddenly felt that a spirit stone flower was worth something again.
The spiritual energy in it is so rich that it is almost comparable to the spiritual energy gathered around me when I use all my strength to activate the Youjiao Tunxu Daoyun and the Five Treasures Jie Yin Shui Yuan Zhu.
Moreover, the training room is divided into two parts: inside and outside.
The space inside is relatively small, soothing incense has been lit inside, and a concentration futon has been prepared. Moreover, the spiritual energy here is even stronger than outside.
Apparently this is a place of spiritual practice.
The outside space is much wider.
There is a bronze human-shaped target placed in the center of the house. This is for practicing and testing spells, and it is also the main reason why Zhang Jingken spent spiritual stones to rent this training room.
Close the door of the training room and die.
Zhang Jing went straight to the small training room inside.
Sit cross-legged, concentrate and relax.
The faint smell of soothing incense lingered in his nose, completely calming him down.
about there.
Zhang Jing took out the Yunling Pill he just bought from his arms, put it into his mouth, then gently scraped off some powder with his teeth and swallowed it.
All of a sudden.
Zhang Jing felt a spiritual energy burst out from his abdomen.
He hurriedly closed his eyes and activated the Five Storehouses Jie Yin Shui Yuan Zhu. The burst of spiritual energy was sorted out in an instant, and began to flow through the five internal organs following the practice method.
Finally, it turned into wisps of pure black spiritual power, entrenched in Dantian.
Are there really impurities? Zhang Jing, who noticed this scene, couldn't help but wonder.
Although it is also pure black spiritual power, there is a huge difference between the spiritual power transformed from the Yunling Pill and the spiritual power condensed by Zhang Jing's own absorption of spiritual energy.
Compared to the latter, there are a lot of impurities hidden inside the former, but fortunately they are being removed by the Juyuan Spiritual Light at an extremely fast speed.
After repeated verification.
Zhang Jing finally came to the conclusion: One Spirit-accumulating Pill is roughly equivalent to seven to ten days of non-stop cultivation, and the Juyuan Spiritual Light can remove impurities from one Spirit-accumulating Pill within three days.
This also means that he can use the cheap and unlimited Yunling Pill as a Purple Spirit Pill without any consequences.
