Practice begins with a fisherman

In short, after careful calculation, joining the relatively loose organization of the Sailing Club is definitely a matter of great benefit and no harm.

"Since Fellow Daoist Jia is kindly inviting you, I certainly won't refuse, but maybe you can recommend one or two in advance for the foundation-building trade fair?" Zhao Shoushou happily agreed, and also did not forget the ultimate goal of the trip.

After all, the trophies obtained from the second-tier low-grade sand lizards, except some for their own use, need to be disposed of in exchange for some useful resources, which is better than simply selling in the square market for some middle-grade spirit stones.

"It just so happens that there will be a small-scale foundation building trade fair in Cormorant County recently. About ten people will participate. You can participate with this token. The identity of the senior needs to be approved by the Xianzhou Headquarters of the Boat Association. It will take about two months. At that time, you can have your own identity token." After Fatty Jia mentioned a specific address, he casually handed over an exquisite wooden sign.

According to Zhao Shoushou's guess, this should be a token that can temporarily prove his identity. What surprised him most was naturally the location of the trade fair.

The location chosen by more than a dozen dignified monks in the foundation period was actually located in the mansion of the governor of Xianzhou in the secular Tang Dynasty, which shows how deeply buried the boat meeting is.

"After the identity token is approved, you can wait for the opportunity to send it here. If it is inconvenient, I will come to pick it up within half a year. I feel the kindness of my advice today, and I will go." After leaving the location of the desert oasis, Zhao Shoushou soon Turn around quickly and leave gracefully.

Since he wants to operate the oasis as a transfer station in the future, he will naturally not continue to hide its location, he just needs to ensure that his cultivation is progressing steadily.

"There is a foundation-building monk in the boat meeting to rely on. I think Jia's situation will be much better. He was able to occupy an oasis in the desert that is thousands of miles away. The possibility of rising in the future is very high. In the early stage, he needs to endure loneliness. After Fatty Jia talked to himself, he returned to the shop very lonely.

Naturally, Fatty Jia didn't care about Fatty Jia's thoughts, and he couldn't wait to rush towards the direction of Xianzhou City, lest he miss this rare opportunity.

Three days later, in the luxurious mansion of the governor of Xianzhou, there is a group of underground palaces with a large area in the backyard. The location of this auction is exactly one of them.

"Welcome everyone to come to the exchange meeting organized by Lao You. Some are regular customers, and some are here for the first time. Our exchange meeting has only one principle, voluntary and equal trade. I wonder who is willing to be the first to donate treasure?" Taiwan The previous monk in the late foundation establishment period introduced it with a smile.

"Fellow Daoists, Fatty Gu took the lead today." Suddenly, a big man with copper-red skin all over his body, with only a pair of shorts next to his chest, was the first to stand on the stage.

"This second-tier refiner who has been famous for a long time, is there another new work? I just don't know what kind of rare treasures I need to exchange this time?" More than ten monks in the audience discussed in low voices. This fat man is obviously a celebrity in this place. .

Second-tier refiners specialize in refining the spirit weapons of monks in the Foundation Establishment period. Almost every second-tier refiner is a wealthy owner, which is destined to not easily satisfy the requirements of this refiner.

"Fellow daoists guessed rightly. After investing in countless spiritual materials, Lao Gu recently refined a second-level middle-grade peak-shaking ground hammer. This treasure is best at beating cattle across mountains. Even if it has a defensive spiritual weapon, it can It has achieved considerable results, and its main material is the second-rank high-grade Taishan stone. Before the expiration date, all fellow Taoists were planning to refine it into a second-grade high-grade spiritual weapon, but the luck is not good." With She's expression, he stroked a fist-sized blue-black hammer.

"Old Gu, just tell me what kind of treasure you want, don't play tricks here." A burly man in the front row interrupted unceremoniously.

"This ground-shaking hammer can be exchanged for a piece of second-tier top-grade azure forged steel or a complete second-tier top-grade earth attribute monster soul." The price tag of the Gu surnamed weapon maker directly made all the monks present turn their attention to the organizer of the auction.

Chapter 192 The Eye-Opening Foundation Establishment Meeting

Because he is the only monk in the late stage of foundation establishment among the monks present, and he has been immersed in the foundation stage for more than a hundred years, and there are many kinds of treasures on his body. The key is that the monk surnamed You successfully cultivated two Newly promoted apprentice of Foundation Establishment.

Wouldn't this second-order middle-grade earth-shaking hammer that appeared at the right time be a treasure to give to his apprentice at the bottom of the box?Suddenly became the focus of the exchange meeting unintentionally.

In fact, except for this late-stage foundation-building monk, the rest of the monks present would never have the opportunity to collect such precious spiritual materials.

The second-order high-grade Taishan stone can only be found in the depths of Mount Tai after being nourished by the spiritual veins for more than a thousand years. Not to mention the difficulty of mining, it is extremely difficult for the vigorous apes living nearby to deal with it.

As for the souls of second-tier high-grade monsters, they can only be obtained after hunting them completely. He has already experienced the difficulty of it once, and he will never forget it.

"You fat man, I'm afraid you are thinking about the soul of a top-rank pangolin that Old You hunted and killed two years ago. Why bother?" Cultivator You gave a wry smile, admiring Fatty Gu's persistence.

However, it was a good time to seize the opportunity this time. In addition, he himself no longer had any hope of congealing the golden core, so it actually contributed to the completion of the transaction.

After about a cup of tea, the monk surnamed Gu came down from the stage with a smile on his face. At this moment, Zhao Shoushou was wondering what price he would have to pay in the future to ask him to help refine the spiritual weapon.

Since this Gu surnamed craftsman is already trying to refine a second-level high-grade spiritual weapon, he thinks that the refining rate of a mere second-level low-grade water attribute spiritual weapon that is not too complicated will be higher.

"Most fellow daoists should know Qiu Shengzi. According to the old rules, the supply of second-tier low-grade spirit talismans is open. The price of offensive talismans is five middle-grade spirit stones, and the price of defensive talismans is eight middle-grade spirit stones. The auxiliary spirit talismans are aimed at Attributes have different prices, and other treasures of the same value can also be traded." The second person who appeared was a second-level low-grade talisman maker.

It is easier to become a talisman maker, but it is more difficult to master it. In fact, most monks from casual cultivation can make some simple talisman seals, but it is also quite difficult to advance to the second level.

To make a second-order talisman, one must be proficient in the corresponding spirit art. Only by understanding the structure of the spirit pattern can one make a truly high-quality talisman.

Moreover, because the energy contained in the second-order talisman seal is very powerful, the ordinary talisman paper can no longer carry it. It is necessary to use the second-order monster fur with corresponding attributes that has been specially treated.

Naturally, the power of the talisman seal produced by such a large investment should not be underestimated. Since there is no spiritual weapon by his side, Zhao Shoushou naturally wouldn't mind buying some talisman with different attributes.

As for the treasures used for exchange, it is naturally the one-yuan heavy water condensed in the "Congealing Water Jue" during the cultivation process. After years of accumulation, there are now about thirty drops.

Soon in the crowded crowd, Zhao Shoushou chose a total of five second-tier low-grade magma magic charms. Once this fire attribute magic charm is sacrificed, it can summon a snake made of magma.

Its powerful and explosive attributes should not be underestimated. It is not easy for most monks in the early stage of the foundation building period to deal with it. In the future, the combination of fire and water should be able to explode a lot of combat power.

"Thirty drops of one yuan heavy water is considered a fair deal." After a brief observation, the talisman maker nodded affirmatively to indicate that the deal was completed.

One yuan of heavy water sells for a middle-grade spirit stone in the square market. In fact, it has little effect on the foundation-building monks. Except for some special cases, the scope of application is not too wide.

However, it can be used as a raw material for talisman ink in the production of some water attribute talismans, and it can be regarded as a kind of spiritual material traded in a small range.

Almost none of the foundation-building monks who were present in the subsequent transactions would let him go. All kinds of second-level treasures opened his eyes, including treasures with a wide range of applications, and some unpopular treasures that he had never heard of. It can be said to have everything that one expects to find.

Zhao Shoushou discovered a pattern throughout the trade fair, except for the second-tier low-grade spirit talismans that the talisman maker freely supplied, almost all of the remaining transactions were barter transactions.

The trading of spirit stones that should have been widespread has almost disappeared here. The monks present seemed to be familiar with this scene, and almost no one showed strange expressions except Zhao Shoushou.

Because it is difficult to adjust the number of monks in the foundation building period, the needs are different, and the price for their own treasures is too high, most of the transactions ended in failure.

Of course, this has no effect on the atmosphere of the exchange meeting. Zhao Shoushou is basically satisfied with this trip. Perhaps the only regret is that the treasures he needs have never appeared, not even a second-level low-grade water attribute spiritual material.

The most exciting thing in the entire trade fair is undoubtedly a bottle of second-level low-grade Mi Yuan Dan provided by a monk, which can help monks in the early stage of foundation establishment improve their cultivation.

It's a pity that he was so shy that he could only watch helplessly as this bottle of ten elixirs fell into the hands of another early-stage Foundation Establishment monk after a lot of fighting.

"This is the first time for Zhao to participate in such a lively foundation-building exchange meeting. This time, I came here to ask for a piece of second-grade low-grade water-attribute spiritual material that can be used as the main material. I would like to use this piece of second-grade low-grade lightning strike wood and a second-grade The low-grade sand lizard demon core is exchanged; the soul of another second-level low-grade mutant sand lizard is exchanged for a water-attribute monster soul of the same level." Unwilling to leave without gaining anything, Zhao Shoushou stood on the stage and took the treasures he had prepared in advance. One shows up.

In Xianzhou, water attribute monsters are the most common type of monsters. This kind of mutated lizard that lives in the desert is even more difficult to meet. Presumably, as long as there is no excessive demand for normal transactions, there is no problem.

The second-level low-grade lightning strike wood is a mutant spiritual material, and it is almost a rare small treasure in the same level. For some monks who need it, it must be hard to come by. Even some early-stage foundation-building monks present have a little ready to move.

Relatively speaking, among the treasures prepared by Zhao Shoushou, the second-tier low-grade demon cores are the most common, and at most they can be exchanged for some spirit stones.

"Dao friendly opportunity, this piece of lightning strike wood is really a good treasure, fellow daoist, let's see Lao Zhang's second-grade low-grade water flow stone?" Soon a monk made the first round of tentative quotations.

The second-level low-grade water flow stone is the most common existence among water-type spiritual materials, but it has a wide range of applications, and it can be used as the main spiritual material for spiritual weapons. Of course, this is not the best choice.

According to the records in "Congealing Water Jue", the most suitable spiritual materials for the second-tier low-grade water diversion fork are cement and water diversion fish bones, but these two spiritual materials are relatively unpopular, and it is not easy to find them.

"Sand lizards originally lived in the scorching desert, and they are generally first-tier mid-to-high-grade. This time, there is a mutation. This old man is a little interested in this soul. How about trading this second-tier low-grade swordfish soul?" Attracted the attention of the only late foundation-building monk present.

Chapter 193

Every few months, monk surnamed You invites three or five friends to organize a small-scale exchange meeting. Coupled with his cultivation in the late stage of foundation establishment, it can be said that he is well-informed. Attracted?

The second-tier low-grade swordfish is a water attribute monster with a relatively wide distribution range, but this does not mean that its value has decreased.

Swordfish are fierce and aggressive by nature. Even if they find themselves invincible in battle, they will choose to self-destruct at the last moment. Except for some scattered trophies, complete monsters rarely appear.

Among them, swordfish souls that can be used to refine spiritual weapons are naturally even rarer, unless the swordfish can be restrained before the swordfish reacts with an obviously superior cultivation level, the monk surnamed You in the late foundation establishment stage obviously It can be done.

The soul of the second-level low-grade swordfish can be called the most precious existence among the same level. The spirit weapon successfully refined with it will greatly increase the attack power, and it is also a treasure that many monks in the early stage of foundation establishment want to have but cannot.

"Little friend, are you willing to make a deal? Could there be a better choice?" The voice of the monk surnamed You flew into his ears again, waking up Zhao Shoushou who was trapped in his imagination.

"Of course there is a trade. Jianyu's soul is a rare treasure for us." He said hurriedly, and completed the transaction at an extremely fast speed, as if he was afraid that the monk surnamed You would regret it.

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist You has always been a good man, how can you bully a newly promoted monk?"

"It seems that this little fellow Taoist is just like us back then, trapped in the embarrassment of lacking a spiritual weapon envoy"

"He is a straightforward man, and he can have more contacts in the future."

Zhao Shoushou's reaction naturally has different judgments in the eyes of different people, but he must not care about these kind or malicious comments.

Right now, he is negotiating with three monks who are also in the early stage of foundation establishment to confirm the final transaction value of the Lightning Strike Wood.

The ultimate goal is naturally to maximize one's own interests, choose a monk with the highest bid and strive to exchange the Lightning Strike Wood for the largest amount of water-type spiritual materials.

"A low-grade second-grade water flow stone, a low-grade water phantom sound stone, and a second-grade low-grade Mi Yuan Dan, are you satisfied?" the monk who first bid said angrily.

The water phantom sound stone is a special spiritual material that can emit confusing sounds underwater, and it can have a miraculous effect on some monsters with weak spiritual consciousness.

Needless to say, the effect of the second-tier low-grade Mi Yuan Pill is the most widely spread second-tier low-grade panacea in the cultivation world, and its effect has been tested by countless monks.

"Deal" Seeing that the other two monks bowed their heads and would not continue to compete, Zhao Shoushou finally chose to make a deal. This trade fair was a rewarding trip.

"Excuse me, does this fellow Taoist have the fur of a second-grade low-grade sand lizard in his hand? How about trading this treasure?" A monk with a very wretched face came up to him just after returning to his seat.

"Is this the vertebrae of a low-grade swordfish of the second rank?" Zhao Shoushou said hesitantly after identifying it a little bit.

"Fellow daoists have sharp eyesight, with this vertebra, the success rate of refining swordfish souls when refining spirit weapons will be greatly improved. The combination of the two will definitely have a positive impact on the improvement of the quality of spirit weapons. Indispensable role," the wretched monk encouraged.

The swordfish vertebrae are not spiritual materials, and they only have a certain auxiliary effect on refining the swordfish's soul, but the effect is different from the beholder's. In short, it is far from being comparable to the sand lizard's fur.

This monk also judged from some behaviors that Zhao Shoushou was just a newcomer, and his knowledge range was not too wide, and he just wanted to take advantage of it.

"The swordfish vertebrae are certainly a good treasure, but the sand lizard's fur has already been traded, so I'm afraid I will disappoint fellow daoists," he said in a very perfunctory manner.

Although Zhao Shoushou is a new monk, it doesn't mean he is ignorant. It is easy to see through some tricks, so naturally he will not persuade this kind of monk.

The wretched monk was bored, and chose to leave quietly with a smirk. It was impossible to overwhelm others when both sides had not yet established their foundations.

"The monster core and fur of the second-grade low-grade sand lizard did not attract attention at this fair, but I need some real treasures from heaven and earth to participate in the future." After the fair ended, Zhao Shoushou was very emotional.

However, it is also good to exchange some middle-grade spirit stones in some square markets, and spirit stones are still necessary in many normal transactions.

In addition to the above gains from participating in the trade fair, when he left at the end, the old man surnamed You vaguely mentioned a place called "Ghost Cave".

Listening to what he said, this is a relatively hidden and dangerous place in Xianzhou, but there are a lot of spoils to be obtained. Most of the newly promoted monks of the boat club will go to experience it.

As for the specific location and situation of the ghost cave, the monk surnamed You in the late foundation establishment period did not mention it, and Zhao Shoushou had to explore the rest himself.

"A dignified late-stage monk who has been famous for a hundred years would not give advice to someone for no reason. Since he deserves the attention of a late-stage monk, it's okay to check it out." Zhao Shoushou thought for a while Finally decided to go check it out.

The specific location and detailed information of Yingui Cave is not a big problem for a foundation-building monk who is interested in inquiring about it. Half a day later, Zhao Shoushou found a place that was almost buried in dust in a shop specializing in selling jade slips. There is something to gain from the jade slips.

According to records, the so-called Yingui Cave was an ancient battlefield where the two countries fought a thousand years ago. At least tens of thousands of soldiers died in the battle. It just so happens that this place is also a good Yin vein.

After hundreds of years of erosion, the tens of thousands of warriors who died here were transformed into various ghost cultivators and zombies, and became a paradise for yin creatures.

The ghost cave is divided into inner and outer layers. The outer layer is generally filled with Yin-type creatures that are equivalent to the Qi training stage, and each ghost in the inner layer is basically similar to the foundation-building stage.

Every zombie or ghost in the inner layer has a yin bead in its body, which is equivalent to the yin bead in the early stage of foundation establishment, which can be sold as a middle-grade spirit stone for 50 yuan.

And because ghost zombies have relatively large flaws, and are naturally restrained by thunder- and fire-attribute treasures, at least it is not too difficult to deal with them with a little preparation.

The most important point is that there are still many Yin-type spiritual herbs and spiritual materials in the Yingui Cave. If you get some by luck, it is considered a valuable trophy.

Originally, the Yingui Cave had been silent for more than a hundred years, but an ancestor of the Golden Core Stage of the Boat Club accidentally discovered it, and deployed a formation to guard it with great mana, and gradually became an excellent place for the Boat Club to test and train newly recruited monks.

It is also a good benefit for newly promoted monks.

Chapter 194 Exploring the Ghost Cave

Although the sailing club is a relatively loose organization, it also has certain requirements for its members. If a newly promoted foundation-building monk cannot defeat a ghost zombie of the same level head-on, they will not allow him to join. It can be regarded as a serial review link.

Of course, this will not be a problem for Zhao Shoushou. The newcomer has not been promoted for a long time, but at the cost of minor injuries, killing a second-level low-grade mutant sand lizard, what's the point of being a ghost zombie?

Except for some special environments, ghost zombies can be said to be the weakest existences at the same level, but when their cultivation reaches a certain stage, they will bottom out and rebound, and ghost zombies will take an absolute advantage with their talents .

"Not every monk can join the sailing club. Only combat power is the only criterion." After sighing, Zhao Shoushou decisively left to prepare some necessary supplies.

As for how the monks of the Sailing Club discovered how to distinguish the number of Yin attribute creatures killed in the Yin Ghost Cave, he didn't care too much. What he really thought about was still how to maximize the benefits.

If you can kill more Yin ghost zombies, get more Yin water, and if you are lucky, you can get some relatively rare spiritual materials and grasses, maybe you can exchange for some suitable spiritual materials.

For thousands of years, countless monks have gone to the ghost cave. There are winners and some losers. If you are lucky, it is not impossible to get some good spiritual weapons.

Even in some ghost generals and iron-clad zombies who are equivalent to the foundation-building period, what they drive in their hands is the spiritual weapon that they got by chance and have undergone preliminary transformation.

Once encountering a similar situation, the danger faced by monks will naturally increase greatly, but in the face of huge benefits, it is difficult to stop the enthusiasm of many new monks.

"Five second-tier low-grade magma magic charms, two second-level low-grade lightning spell charms, and some necessary detoxification and miasma-removing panacea, I have all the preparations, so I can go and find out." Two days later, Zhao Shoushou prepared some necessities in a city. After finishing, prepare to go to Yingui Cave confidently.

The second-tier low-grade thunder-drawing magic talisman can use the hidden power to pull a thunder from the sky, and it is not affected by the weather. It is exactly what the so-called "bolt from the blue" describes, and its restraint against ghosts cannot be underestimated. , even the ghost zombies that are equivalent to the late foundation establishment stage should stay away.

It can be said that the two Lightning Inducing Magic Talismans are tailor-made for Yingui Cave, because of the restraining power of the thunder attribute, even if they encounter some relatively powerful Yingui zombies, they can guarantee a smooth escape.

The five magma magic charms obtained at the exchange meeting during the foundation period were prepared to deal with some ghost zombies of comparable level, and to gain a chance to win at the critical moment.

A total of seven talismans can be said to have completely consumed his not-so-rich net worth. The two lightning strike talismans are relatively rare mutant talismans, and the price of each is around 15 yuan for middle-grade spirit stones.

With the addition of some miscellaneous items, the 40 yuan mid-grade spirit stones obtained from processing the sand lizard skin were basically consumed. So far, there is no other treasure except for a demon core.

"In order to be able to gain something in the Yingui Cave, I will do my best today." Before the voice fell, his figure had disappeared into the distance with a flicker.

Yingui Cave is located in a dense forest in the northeast of Xianzhou. As soon as Fang stepped into it, he suddenly felt an inexplicable coolness. It seemed that there were some mysterious eyes watching his every move.

After a detailed search, he found nothing. It was precisely because of this situation that his vigilance against this place was increased several times in his heart.

"As expected of the famous Yingui Cave, a paradise for ghosts in the world, the yin energy here is enough to support the survival of tens of thousands of ghost zombies," Zhao Shoushou said inwardly after taking a miasma-dispelling pill.

You must know that this is just the dense forest outside the Yingui Cave, and it is far from being an external part of the Yingui Cave. How can he be careless seeing this situation?

"This gloomy scene is worthy of the title of ghost paradise in the world, but it makes people feel a little nervous." This is what he felt after he entered the center of the dense forest.
