Practice begins with a fisherman

"This place is so rich in spiritual power, it's even better than Lingdao. After arranging this place as a temporary overseas cave, it should be a good existence. After searching for a while, a new idea came to my mind. .

Since the golden core was condensed, the second-level middle-grade spiritual veins on the Gourd Spirit Island are far from being able to meet the needs of its cultivation. It is an imminent thing to open a new cave that can satisfy the cultivation.

Compared to occupying a third-order spirit island in the open sea, becoming a thorn in the side of many third-order sea beasts, and occupying an underwater cave, the difficulty is obviously much smaller.

You only need to arrange some formation flags in advance to avoid the exploration of many sea beasts with weak spiritual sense. Even if one or two discover the secrets in it occasionally, you only need to find a way to drive them away. Relatively speaking, the difficulty is not great It's much easier.

"Mr. Zhao is still so smart. Whether it is cultivation or healing, it is a good cave, and it can be regarded as a stroke of genius." After a simple investigation, he is basically satisfied with the situation here.

Fumbled from the storage bag to take out four sets of array flags, and arranged them in different positions by borrowing the spiritual power dissipated from the spiritual veins. The only pity is that the four sets of array flags are all second-tier top-grade.

"Relying on the support of spiritual power and spirit stones, even if you encounter some weaker Tier [-] sea beasts, you can still resist them. You still need to buy a set of Tier [-] water attribute array flags as soon as possible before you can feel at ease." Zhao Shoushou was full of heart. He whispered joyfully.

However, Zhao Shoushou couldn't continue to dawdle here. There were still some things to deal with on the Lingdao, such as the two foundation-building monks belonging to the Liushan Sect and some miscellaneous elixir on the Lingdao.

Most of the grades of these elixir are only second-tier mid-to-high grade, but they are superior in quantity, and they can be exchanged for expensive spirit stones in some square markets.

You can even take this opportunity to negotiate with some shops that specialize in elixir medicines to trade more than one grade of spirit stones, and you can more or less exchange some spirit stones or treasures of the same level.

Even a powerful treasure talisman can play a big supporting role for him who currently lacks the means to deal with monks of the same level.

"Congratulations, Senior Depot, for returning." Brothers Liu Ruyin and Liu Rujin stood in place and waited respectfully for his return.

"It's just that some extraneous wealth is not worth mentioning. I always mean what I say. All the treasures below the second-level middle-grade on Lingdao belong to you. It depends on how much you can get before the colleagues of the Liushan faction arrive. your business"

Chapter 508 Tier [-] Low-Rank Artifact Refiner

Zhao Shoushou's figure had disappeared on the spirit island before he could finish his words. Judging from the direction he was going, the target was the elixir garden located in the center and cared for by several foundation-building monks.

Most of the elixir carefully cultivated in the elixir garden are second-tier mid-to-high-grade elixir with high value. In addition, there are also some second-tier elixir veins that are continuously mined with the efforts of monks. The large amount of raw ore accumulated can be regarded as A good income.

Individually, these things are not very attractive to Jindan stage monks, but at this time they have an advantage over quantity.

Whether it is a second-tier mid-level top-grade elixir or a spiritual material, it is a treasure that is in great demand in the cultivation world. Many markets are open to purchase, and winning with a large quantity is not a small fortune. reward.

I don't know if Liu Ruyin and Liu Rujin's status in the Liushan School is low or the elders of the school don't believe in the authenticity of the communication talisman. On the third day, after he calmly confiscated all the valuable treasures, a The monk in green and black robes, who stepped on a large round gourd, had just arrived late.

"Liu Ruyin and Liu Rujin paid homage to their master, their disciples are not filial, they have not shown their filial piety in front of their master for many years, please forgive me, master." The two monks were overjoyed immediately, and immediately knelt on the ground to pay respects.

"The two villains were imprisoned by sea beasts. They really disgraced the Liushan faction. After returning to the sect, they must be severely punished. Jin Jinshan of the Liushan faction has met Taoist friend. Thank you, fellow Taoist, for saving the villain from the mouth of the sea beast." The black-robed and green-clothed monk bowed very politely to Zhao Shoushou.

"The Fourth Elder of the Liushan School, the famous third-tier refiner, Mr. Zhao has been famous for a long time, but it just happened to meet him, so it's not worth mentioning." Zhao Shoushou showed a warm smile on his face.

The Liushan faction has a total of two third-tier refiners. As long as there are enough spiritual materials, they can stably produce the magic weapons urgently needed by Golden Core cultivators. A large number of spirit weapons can be refined to supply the market, and enough spirit stones can be earned to supply the cultivation needs of Zongmen monks.

Based on this alone, it is worth Zhao Shoushou's energy to make friends, which is also the reason why he didn't kill all these favorites at will.

"Fellow Daoist Gao Yi, Lao Jin will keep this feeling in mind. If you need me in the future, you can go to the Liushan faction to find me. However, if you are within your ability, you will definitely not shirk at all," Jin Jinshan promised, patting his chest.

The promise of a golden core stage monk is of great value, it is equivalent to killing three sea snakes at once, and earning a good opportunity for refining magic weapons in the future.

For monks who come from casual cultivators, there are two difficulties in refining magic weapons. The first is the collection of third-level spiritual materials with matching attributes, which is also the most difficult part; the second is the search for suitable weapon refiners, which is also particularly important. .

A skilled craftsman can successfully refine a magic weapon at one time, while some unskilled ones may need two to three times of refining to succeed, and the gap is quite obvious.

From the main material to the auxiliary material, each magic weapon requires at least twenty types of spiritual materials, worth nearly a thousand top-grade spiritual stones, and requires a difficult search.

In particular, the treasures that can be used as the main materials of magic weapons are nothing more than two sources. One is some valuable spiritual materials taken from third-order sea beasts, and the other is excavated from some famous dangerous places. The dangers that need to be faced are quite great, even a monk at the golden core stage may die.

Raising one of them is already a fluke, let alone two or even three?Perhaps one failure represents more than a hundred years.

However, because the Liushan School belongs to the inheritance of the school, the skill of the craftsman is relatively high among the same level, and the probability of one-time success is relatively high.

This has also led to countless golden core stage monks who go to ask for refining magic weapons every year. If there is no real friendship, it may take several years to wait.

"Fellow Daoist Jin killed Zhao, but when we met by chance, I discovered that the three sea snakes imprisoned my human cultivator. Although I was born as a casual cultivator with low skills, I couldn't allow it to be arrogant. After a hard fight, I managed to win." I want to understand After explaining the truth, Zhao Shoushou also seemed very enthusiastic, as if he was completely different from his previous stern look.

"Zhao Daoyou is humble. Being able to kill three sea snakes is an outstanding existence in the same class." Hearing the name of the three sea snakes, Jin Jinshan gasped.

The three-headed sea snake is not an ordinary third-order sea beast. Its reputation is based on the fact that a large number of monks serve as blood food. Being able to hunt and kill such a powerful sea beast is a manifestation of strength.

The realm of comprehension is another place where strength is the king. At this moment, he naturally deserves the respect he deserves. In fact, he didn't know that it was a bit of luck to successfully hunt and kill the three sea snakes this time.

In order to achieve the ultimate goal, Zhao Shoushou can be said to use his body as bait. If he could not hunt successfully, he would have died of poison at this time. Instead, he would become the delicacy in the belly of the three sea snakes. Everyone only sees the current scenery and harvest, so what? Can you understand the panic and hardship at that time?

"The power of the three sea snakes is not due to their reputation. Being able to kill them this time is just a tactic. The process is extremely dangerous, and it is unbearable to look back. I still have lingering fears." plan.

"Master, Senior Zhao got a lot of second-level spiritual materials and elixir this time, which can just make up for the shortcomings of the sect. Why not buy them at the market price? It can also be regarded as exempting Senior Zhao from the pain of running around in various markets?" While thinking about how to speak, Liu Ruyin opened the topic from another angle.

"It would be great if the Liushan faction is willing to buy it. I wonder if it will bring trouble to Fellow Daoist Jin?" Regarding this point, he is happy to see it succeed.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao laughed. There are so many disciples in the sect, and the amount of consumption is huge. Mr. Jin happens to be in charge of purchasing the sect. If fellow daoists are willing to trade, it will be a good thing for Mr. Jin Jinshan with a hearty look on his face. There is no conflict in the transaction.

Half an hour later, all the spiritual materials and spiritual herbs were counted. According to the grades of the various treasures, the two sides quickly decided to reach a deal at the price of 30 yuan high-grade spiritual stones, and finally settled the money and goods with two water attribute treasure charms Seal the deal.

"The green mountains will not change, and the green waters will flow forever. You are welcome to go to the Liushan faction in the future, and Jin will definitely sweep the couch." Jin Jinshan was in a good mood when he left.

"After we have collected all the spiritual materials, we will definitely need the help of fellow daoist to refine the magic weapon. Fellow daoist Jin and the two little friends will have a safe journey together." Zhao Shoushou also handed him off, looking like a close friend.

The relationship between the two is actually not very good, and it is just another kind of secret transaction in essence. For Jin Jinshan, it is worthwhile for Jin Jinshan to exchange for the safety of the two disciples with a chance to make a magic weapon.

Chapter 509 The first retreat after the golden core

On the contrary, for Zhao Shoushou, it was nothing more than a favor after a bitter battle to kill three sea snakes, and the promise to exchange for a skilled third-level craftsman was also worth the money, strictly speaking, it took up a lot cheap.

Of course, in the smooth exchange of all the treasures on Lingdao for two water-attribute treasure charms, it was obviously Jin Jinshan's intentional care.

Perhaps this is directly related to Liushan faction having a third-tier middle-grade talisman master who can mass-produce third-tier treasure talismans, otherwise, how could he carry more than ten full-featured treasure talismans with him? Zhao Shoushou, a Golden Core cultivator who was born as a casual cultivator, was jealous.

Perhaps in Jin Jinshan's eyes, these third-tier treasure talismans were just a little more precious consumables in battle, but to Zhao Shoushou, they were treasures that could be used as a trump card at the bottom of the box.

The gap between the two Jindan stage monks is quite obvious, which is also inseparable from their identity as a craftsman.

"As a monk of the human race, but willing to be the pet of sea beasts, we two brothers really lost face to you, master, please punish me." On the huge gourd, Liu Ruyin and Liu Rujin, two monks who had just been rescued, were full of faces. With a look of shame, he knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty.

"In the past cultivation career, it seems that I have taken care of you too well. The most important spirit of being a monk has disappeared. How can I gain a foothold even if I achieve Jindan in the future? After returning to the sect, Naturally, it will be dealt with according to the rules of the sect." Jin Jinshan changed his previous kindness and became quite serious and sharp, and he hated iron but not steel.

The two brothers Liu Ruyin and Liu Rujin were selected from the Zongmen Acceptance Conference when he was newly promoted to the Foundation Establishment Stage. They have been with him for nearly two hundred years. Arrogant, personally went to the sea to meet him.

"As long as Master can vent his anger, we are willing to accept any punishment." The performance of the two brothers on this point is considered qualified.

"Practice more in the future, and you must not put all your hopes on being a teacher. No matter how far you can go on the road of practice, you still need to be self-reliant and self-reliant after all." Jin Jinshan sat cross-legged at the mouth of the gourd and closed his eyes after a lesson Pranayama.

Zhao Shoushou was obviously not clear about the conversation between the three masters and apprentices, and he was picking up the corpses of the three sea snakes bit by bit.

After beheading him after a bitter battle, Zhao Shoushou, who was eager to heal his injuries, only took out the three most valuable demon pills and snake gall at the first time, and the rest was just swallowed whole and thrown into the storage bag. middle.

Now that all kinds of complicated affairs have been dealt with, the corpses of the three sea snakes naturally cannot continue to be vacant. After all, apart from the snake gall and the demon pill, there are still some good spiritual materials.

If it continues to delay, it is likely to affect the quality of the spiritual materials. These are all important components for refining magic weapons in the future, so there must be no slack.

The three sea snakes can be said to be full of treasures. The value of the snake gall and the demon pill is of course needless to say. In addition, a pair of eyes have the function of improving eyesight. It can be used as a good third-level spiritual material, and can also be used as a raw material for refining treasure charms.

After some special means of refinement, the sea beast's blood essence is the best source of Tier [-] talisman ink, and it can also be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones, which is even more indispensable for some talisman seal masters.

In addition to the above, a venom gland in the body is also a valuable treasure. Although there is not much venom left, if it is used properly, it can kill a monk of the same rank.

Zhao Shoushou always welcomed this kind of yin man's treasure, and carefully placed it in a storage bag on his right hand for easy access at any time.

As for the remaining flesh and bones, they can also be processed and sent to some specialized shops for recycling. In short, each part has different value, and there must be no waste.

After successfully hunting down the three sea snakes and sorting out some valuable third-tier spiritual materials, he has successfully liberated from the state of abject poverty.

Among all the trophies, the most valuable are the three complete third-order low-grade demon pills, and because they come from the same source, they can be used as the choice for some hopeless foundation-building peak monks to refine the outer pill. Dan can be exchanged for at least one hundred high-grade spirit stones or treasures of the same level, which is equivalent to one-third of the value of a magic weapon.

Jin Jinshan of the Liushan faction was well aware of this at the beginning, so he did not rashly request to trade the three sea snake trophies, even though the need was extremely urgent.

In the overseas cultivation world, whether it is a monk at the golden core stage or a third-order sea beast, they are very important existences in their respective groups, and it is not easy to hunt them down.

Of course, once the hunting is successful, the income will be very rich, unless it is in some auctions or special occasions, it will be traded.

"After all the trophies are dealt with, at least 500 yuan of high-grade spirit stones can be exchanged, so it's not a waste of hard work." Zhao Shoushou whispered, with a satisfied smile on his face.

For him, after condensing the golden core, the refining of magic weapons will always be ranked first. Most of the trophies on the three-headed sea snake may be replaced with some suitable spiritual materials for refining magic weapons.

As for the choice of magic weapon, there are two sources. First, the records in "Ningshui Jue", which is quite consistent with the inheritance of exercises; Recommend some special magic weapons.

However, for Zhao Shoushou, the most important thing at present is to retreat as soon as possible. The purpose is to heal and cultivate. There is time for a deep recuperation.

As for the retreat practice, I want to learn something from the fierce battle with the three sea snakes. For many monks, when they are on the line of life and death, it is easiest to get some epiphanies that are good for improving their cultivation. Being able to retreat in time will bring many wonderful benefits.

Although Zhao Shoushou didn't have an obvious epiphany during the battle, some other gains also exist, and he can also gain something if he retreats at this time.

What's more, since he successfully condensed the golden core, his main energy has been on the search for the magic weapon, and his understanding of the realm is not too deep, and it takes enough time to sort out all of these.

Since there is a good cave here, and under the awe of the smell of the three sea snakes, there will be no hidden dangers in terms of safety in the future.

After repeated comparisons, this is the best time to retreat, and you can also think about the next action plan during the retreat.

Chapter 510 Timid Tuna

Act as soon as you think about it, not to mention that everything is based on the current situation. After tidying up hastily, Zhao Shoushou quickly entered the lair of the three sea snakes and entered a state of deep retreat and cultivation.

After the golden elixir was formed, the speed at which the monks refined their spiritual power suddenly increased, which was completely different from before. Just now they began to operate the Great Circuit according to the requirements of the "Congealing Water Jue", and the large amount of spiritual power attracted around them has already It was surrounded tightly and fell into a piece of white spiritual power.

Although there is no panacea to help this retreat, thanks to the abundant and rich spiritual power here and the current golden pill is like a big belly man who can't eat enough, greedily devouring every drop of spiritual power, the improvement of cultivation base The speed is still quite impressive, and this sense of accomplishment is the most attractive to the monks themselves.

In addition to the pure improvement of mana, the void core formed by the spiritual consciousness in the upper dantian is also spinning crazily, but its purpose is not to increase the amount of spiritual consciousness.

The evolution states of the virtual pills in the upper dantian and the golden pills in the lower dantian are almost completely opposite, and the volume of the golden pills shows a trend of increasing with the improvement of cultivation.

The xudan in the upper dantian is also the largest in size at the beginning of its formation, about the size of a fist. As the cultivation base is promoted, it shows a trend of shrinking, and the quality of the xudan is continuously improved. When it reaches a peak, When it becomes only the size of a thumb, it is the time when the broken elixir becomes a baby, when the spiritual consciousness and the golden elixir collide and merge into one.

At this time, the task of Zhao Shoushou's retreat is naturally to continuously reduce the size of Xu Dan and improve the quality of spiritual knowledge, which is very important in future battles.

With the improvement of the quality of the same spiritual knowledge, it is easier to discover possible or hidden dangers, so every monk attaches as much importance to spiritual knowledge as the improvement of mana.

As a cultivator who attaches great importance to his own safety, he will not hesitate at all on this point. More than half of his energy in this retreat may be devoted to the condensing of Xudan.

In fact, purely from the improvement of Jindan and Xudan, the difficulty of the latter is obviously higher. After all, Jindan can still be assisted by various elixir.

The condensing of spiritual knowledge mostly depends on the talent and diligence of the monks. The elixir that can assist the condensing of spiritual knowledge is quite rare and expensive. It is not easy for a casual practitioner to obtain the golden elixir.

For many Golden Core cultivators, one of the important reasons why their cultivation cannot be improved is that the Void Core has not met the requirements and has become a threshold that is difficult to cross.

Time always passes quickly in retreat, especially for Golden Core stage monks, one year, two years, three years, this kind of retreat lasts up to five years.

A third-rank low-grade tuna that had been looking for woke it up from its cultivation when it attacked the cave, and it couldn't help but sucked in a breath of cold air after pinching its fingers.

"The retreat of Jindan stage monks really takes ten years as a unit. The life span of more than [-] years seems to be long, but it is still not enough to make ends meet." Zhao Shoushou couldn't help sighing, even with the assistance of various life-extending elixir At present, it is only seven hundred years, not to mention that the spiritual fruit that can prolong life is quite rare in the cultivation world.

It has been less than 20 years since the golden elixir was condensed, and when the life span was still more than [-] years old, it was full of a sense of crisis again, and there was no room for slack at all, and a new round of struggle and hard work was about to start.

"Third-rank low-grade tuna, the sea beast that came to your door, isn't it the fat that flew into its mouth? Is there any reason to give up?" The sea beast was already interested in trying to attack the formation without thinking about what it had gained from this retreat. Banner's third-order low-grade tuna.

Tuna is a relatively common Tier [-] sea beast in overseas practice circles. It has a wide distribution range and low combat effectiveness, especially its flesh and blood with a slightly sweet taste is quite attractive.

Their flesh and blood can even be directly eaten and refined, and the essence contained in it is of great benefit to monks, and is therefore very popular.

Originally, Zhao Shoushou's first goal when he went to the outer sea practice world was to find a third-rank low-grade tuna to train his hands, but by accident, he met three sea snakes.

Since the appearance this time naturally cannot be easily let go. Of course, the low combat effectiveness is only relatively speaking. These guys are timid and fearful, and they will run away immediately after being slightly frightened.

"Thousands of miles of ice, decree" Therefore, Zhao Shoushou can be said to not make a move, and the only treasure technique he sacrificed at the first moment, hoping to seal it here.

It's a pity that Zhao Shoushou met tuna for the first time after all, and he still far underestimated how timid they are. The power of the thousand-mile ice-sealing treasure has not yet been truly displayed. The time since then has disappeared into the deep sea, without any dignity and pride of a third-order sea beast at all.

"This, this, this, tuna is truly timid and fearful. It seems that there is no chance for it." Seeing this scene, Zhao Shoushou couldn't help being shocked, and it took him a long time to catch his breath.

Being able to preserve the hidden cave in such an easy way is naturally a good choice for him. Once the secret of the cave is revealed, such a secret location with good comprehensive conditions will definitely attract more sea beasts. peeping.

However, judging from the current situation, the appearance of tuna is not accidental. As time goes by, the three sea snakes have not appeared for a long time, and even the lingering breath has begun to dissipate. Naturally, some sea beasts will come to compete for the ownership of this sea area .

Because of the existence of a third-order spirit island, there is naturally a lot of temptation in this sea area, and the one who will occupy this place in the future must be a strong man like the three-headed sea snake.

At that time, it is obviously impossible to resist with the four sets of array flags currently arranged, so there is an urgent need for a set of third-tier low-grade array flags with good power and dual functions of concealment and offense.

The ability to sell such a rank array flag is naturally not available in the empty sea. Zhao Shoushou needs to return to the inner sea in the near future to find a market full of treasures and buy it as soon as possible.

"There are only a few square cities that can provide third-tier low-grade array flags. It's just a good time to visit and integrate into the group of Jindan monks as soon as possible." The escape technique quietly disappeared into the sea.

The specific target, Zhao Shoushou, had already made up his mind. It was the third-tier mid-grade bamboo forest spirit island located at the junction of the inner sea and the outer sea.

This spiritual island belongs to the Zhulin family, with seven Jindan stage monks sitting in town, known as the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest, and it is also the only family that has successfully opened a third-order spiritual island in the past hundred years.

Moreover, the seven monks are not a family, but just a casual repair group to keep warm. This situation has always envied the monks who have always been used to fighting alone, and they have always wanted to go to make friends. A good opportunity.

Chapter 511 The Mysterious Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove

Excellent natural conditions are only one of the reasons why the Bamboo Forest Spirit Island was able to emerge from a silent and unknown overseas Spirit Island to a mighty Spirit Island in just 200 years.
