Lonely Immortal

When the corpse refining shouted, the monk immediately made a formula, and then Zhang Zhiwen saw that the corpse refining actually used a spell with Taoist power, and this spell directly blew away the refining corpse.

But the Taoist power in this spell was very weak, and it almost disappeared in a flash. But just this little Taoist power allowed the monk to pass the first level and get the white ninth-level magic refining order, and this The monk also seemed to be exhausted and quickly meditated to recover.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhiwen was quite surprised. He didn't expect that the monks of the Fanyin Sect were really powerful. They could actually release a little bit of Taoist power during the Qi refining period. This was indeed very rare outside.

In fact, the spells performed by the monks in the Qi Refining Stage have no Taoist power. They are just downgraded spells, such as fireballs and the like. At most, they are higher-level spiritual power techniques, that is, spiritual techniques. But in general, the way of cultivation is generally called magic. After all, magic is the orthodox term, and it does contain the power of Taoism.

But this kind of thing is obviously very rare, because a monk has to build a foundation before he can have a Taoist root. Otherwise, there will only be a little bit of Taoist power in the body, that is, the power of Taoism. For example, Zhang Zhiwen previously had a Taoist power in his body. He just didn't release the power of Taoism contained in the Star Flower, but this power of Taoism will be consumed and cannot be restored.

In this case, the monk must have taken some elixir or something. Sure enough, the monk meditated and recovered for a period of time. He took out the elixir and drank it. Then he continued to stand up. He drove the corpse to continue the challenge. Second level.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhiwen was no longer interested, because he knew that this monk would definitely fail. He won the first level with great difficulty. He still relied on part of the power of Taoism, so there was no need for the second level at all. I'm overthinking it, but the other party obviously intends to give it a try, so it's okay to give it a try. It's also a good idea to explore the situation first.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen left here and returned directly to the first level of the Demon Refining Tower.

He has watched a lot of corpse refining along the way, but all the levels he has passed have only reached the third level and have not continued. That is, no one has challenged higher levels, such as the fourth level and the fifth level, which he has never seen before.

But when Zhang Zhiwen came to the first floor of the Demon Refining Tower, he found that there were suddenly more people here, and there were even monks of the eighth and ninth levels of the Qi Refining Stage who appeared here. Zhang Zhiwen was quite curious, and he also He walked over to see what was going on here, because these monks at the eighth and ninth levels of the Qi Refining Stage would not appear here at all.

But when Zhang Zhiwen stepped forward to check, he knew what was going on. It turned out that there were several foundation-building monks trying to break through. This was something Zhang Zhiwen didn't expect. However, the monks around him were already talking about it, and Zhang Zhiwen finally knew what was going on.

It turns out that these foundation-building monks are here to break through the fourth level. Generally speaking, monks who break into the Demon Refining Tower first get the Grand Slam, because only after getting the Grand Slam can they enter the inner gate. Whether it is the lowest-level White Demon Refining Order Grand Slam or the higher green Demon Refining Order Grand Slam, there are always people who are reluctant to accept such a result and always hope to make further progress. After all, this is a matter of How much resources they get after entering the inner gate is a big deal.

In that case, there are people like these foundation-building monks who are still not satisfied after winning the Green Grand Slam and want to win the Blue Grand Slam. If they win the Blue Grand Slam, they can become insiders. The core disciple of the sect.

"I don't know if Senior Brother Chen can succeed today. Hey, he has obtained the Grand Slam ranking of the Green Demon Refining Order. He is now going to hit the Grand Slam ranking of the Blue Demon Refining Order!"

"Hey, Senior Brother Wang who is with Senior Brother Chen is more powerful, right? He came with Senior Brother Chen. Look at his corpse refining, it must be very strong. He has already passed the green level of the first three floors. !”

"Yes, but to be honest, I think this is not worth the gain. Even if you get the Blue Demon Refining Order level and become a core disciple of the inner sect, you will be delayed for too long in the outer sect."

"That's true. I heard that their peers have already reached the high level of Foundation Establishment. But look at them, they are in the early stage of Foundation Establishment. They waste too much time, and their Foundation Establishment cultivation is only 500. It can be used every year, but this corpse grows slowly and cannot grow for hundreds of years."

"Yeah, I don't know if it's worth it to exchange these hundreds of years for the identity of a core disciple of the inner sect..."

…

These monks who were watching were talking about it, and Zhang Zhiwen just listened. It was impossible for him to spend hundreds of years cultivating corpses, and he saw that although the corpses carried by these foundation-building monks were It's very strong, but after all, it's just corpse refining, and it can only pass the level of the Blue Demonic Refining Order Grand Slam, which is obviously not worthwhile.

However, everyone has their own ambitions, and Zhang Zhiwen just left on his own, regardless of Zhang Zhiwen's business.

Zhang Zhiwen’s plan is very simple. He just plans to pass the White Demon Refining Order level, which is the first level. Anyway, it’s not worthwhile to go through too many, and he doesn’t have that much time. He doesn’t want to waste hundreds of dollars in this place. In two years, he does not expect to become the core disciple of the inner sect of the Sanskrit Sect. He is here to get the Sanskrit Heart Sutra.

However, if you want to pass the first level of the Demon Refining Tower, there are nine floors in total. After the ninth floor, you must have at least the strength of the underworld to pass through. Zhang Zhiwen is very clear about this. In this way, he plans to follow the steps of the refining tower. The level of female mummies can be improved through corpse art records.

The level improvement of this female mummy is no secret. The records of corpse refining are very clear, that is, it is improved by raising blood essence, coupled with elixirs and Xuanmen formations.

There is nothing to say about raising essence and blood. Zhang Zhiwen only needs to raise it once a day. It is useless if he feeds more. The mummy cannot absorb it at all. But the elixir and the Xuanmen formation are different. This is equivalent to using external power to quickly promote.

There is only one elixir for improving corpse refining, which is called Corpse Refining Pill. The medicinal materials of Corpse Refining Pill are all recorded in the book Refining Corpse. Zhang Zhiwen also knows that there are three medicinal materials for this Corpse Refining Pill. One is Corpse spirit grass, one is the rotting flower, and the last one is the gall bladder.

The book "Corpse Refining Art" also records the origin of these three medicinal materials. It is said that these things are found in the Sanskrit Sect. Corpse spirit grass and rotten flower are plants, and the Yin Soul Gallbladder is a kind of gallbladder called Jiralhanae. This The three things are refined into the Corpse Refining Pill, which can quickly increase the level of the Corpse Refining Pill.

In addition, there is the Xuanmen Formation. This Xuanmen Formation is called the Corpse Refining Formation. It consists of one formation eye and nine formation legs. It is not very difficult, but the formation eye and formation legs require some special materials. These There was a long list of densely packed materials. Zhang Zhiwen counted them, and there were eighty-one types in total.

Zhang Zhiwen is also proficient in Xuanmen formations, because he is proficient in ancient Xuandao. Except for the ancient magic way, he has mastered all others, so whether it is alchemy or Xuanmen formations, it is not difficult for him. The only thing is to All you have to do is collect enough materials.

Since he wants to improve the level of corpse refining, Zhang Zhiwen must collect these materials, so he plans to go to the market at the outer gate to check the situation. Anyway, he will definitely not consider going out to collect or hunt in the first place. It would be a waste of time. too much.

Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen got up and went to the market at the outer gate.

There are many markets in the Fanyin Sect, especially markets like the outer gate. They are gathering places for the outer gate and the scattered villages outside. Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen quickly came to a market. Inside these markets They are all disciples of the local Fanyin Sect, and they all set up stalls , Zhang Zhiwen searched for a while, and he found the materials for the Corpse Refining Pill and the Corpse Refining Formation. Obviously, these things are very common here in the Fanyin Sect. Just as Zhang Zhiwen guessed, since the Fanyin Sect allows its disciples to refine corpses , then there must be a lot of material in this area.

Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen casually came to a stall and stopped. The owner of this stall was a middle-aged man in his forties, but he seemed to have no cultivation. The things he was selling were some medicinal materials, including the corpse refining pill. of medicinal materials.

Zhang Zhiwen squatted down, picked up a corpse spirit grass and looked at it. The name of this corpse spirit grass is not good, but it looks very beautiful. It exudes a faint light and smells a faint fragrance. If it is not a corpse refining There are records in the secrets of the technique, but Zhang Zhiwen never thought that this beautiful medicinal material was actually used to refine corpses.

When the middle-aged man saw Zhang Zhiwen picking up the Corpse Spirit Grass, he immediately said enthusiastically: "Sir, you must be buying some materials for the juniors, right? This Corpse Spirit Grass is a good thing for me."

Zhang Zhiwen did not bring the female mummy with him. Because the female mummy had difficulty moving, he put it in the room first. He came out alone. When the other party saw that Zhang Zhiwen was building a foundation, he must not be an outer disciple, so he thought Zhang Zhiwen purchased things for the younger disciples.

Zhang Zhiwen didn't care, he just nodded lightly, and then asked: "How to sell this?"

When the middle-aged man saw Zhang Zhiwen asking for a price, he quickly said: "It's not expensive or not, it's the market price, ten low-grade spiritual stones per tree."

Zhang Zhiwen was not surprised when he heard this. This kind of herbal medicine in the Qi refining period must be cheap. Otherwise, how could such an uncultivated person collect it?

Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen said again: "Besides Corpse Spirit Grass, do you have anything else?"

"Yes, yes, the medicinal materials needed to refine the Corpse Pill are all available here. Sir, how much do you want?" This middle-aged man obviously knew what Zhang Zhiwen wanted to buy the Corpse Spirit Grass for, and he was also smart.

When Zhang Zhiwen saw him like this, he naturally became interested. He didn't want to go everywhere to purchase these things, so he planned to buy them from this middle-aged man. He also planned to buy these materials from this middle-aged man in the future, so as to save money. Save time and effort.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen put down the Corpse Spirit Grass, clapped his palms to shake off the soil, then stood up and said, "In that case, I will accept as much as you have."

The middle-aged man was stunned, but soon he said happily: "Okay, let me ask you to come with me. I have kept these medicinal materials at home. There are quite a lot of them, and I can't carry the small ones..." "

"No problem, you lead the way."

Zhang Zhiwen interrupted him. He also knew that the other party had no spiritual power, so he would not be able to carry a storage bag, so he must have a lot of things at home.

The middle-aged man didn't say much, just agreed hastily, and then led Zhang Zhiwen towards his home.

Zhang Zhiwen was not in a hurry. He followed the middle-aged man. They walked all the way out, passing through mountains and fields, and finally came to a village.

This was the first time Zhang Zhiwen came into this village. He had always passed by Yujian Flying before and had never looked at it more. Now that he saw this village, he realized that this village was quite big. There were no less than a thousand families living in the village, and the surrounding areas You can see cows, sheep, chickens and ducks everywhere, which obviously has a secular atmosphere.

The middle-aged man brought Zhang Zhiwen along and talked about their situation along the way. Zhang Zhiwen had expected what the middle-aged man said. As Zhang Zhiwen guessed, these villages have been around for many years. They have been passed down from generation to generation. Many people in the village have gone to the Fanyin Sect and become outer disciples or even inner disciples. Once they entered the Fanyin Sect, they almost never returned to the village.

Zhang Zhiwen didn't say much about this kind of thing. People go to higher places. If they leave their hometown and go to the Fanyin Sect, it is definitely unlikely that they will come back to such a place.

So, the two of them came to the door of the middle-aged man's house one after the other.

The place where the middle-aged man lived was also relatively simple, just a small yard. At this moment, there were several people standing at the door, one of them was a woman, and there were several children. When these children saw the middle-aged man, they hurried over to call him daddy, and the woman also came over and looked at Zhang Zhiwen nervously, as if the man rarely brought outsiders here.

But the man hurriedly introduced Zhang Zhiwen to the woman, saying that he was an adult who came to buy medicinal herbs. The woman hurriedly saluted Zhang Zhiwen, but Zhang Zhiwen hurriedly dissuaded her, as he was not used to being saluted.

"Mother, please hurry up and get some delicious food. I want to entertain the adult." The middle-aged man was quite generous and asked the woman to get some delicious food for Zhang Zhiwen, but Zhang Zhiwen hurriedly declined, because he came here to buy some things and would leave soon, so there was no need to delay other people's business.

But the man obviously wanted to entertain Zhang Zhiwen, so Zhang Zhiwen had no choice but to let him do it.

So the two entered the house, and the woman hurriedly served tea to Zhang Zhiwen, and then Zhang Zhiwen talked to the man about the transaction.

The middle-aged man seemed to be in no hurry, and asked Zhang Zhiwen to drink tea first, and then have a meal, and then take him to see the medicinal herbs.

Zhang Zhiwen probably knew what the other party was thinking. Obviously, the man saw that Zhang Zhiwen's cultivation was quite powerful, so he wanted to curry favor with Zhang Zhiwen so that he would have some backing from then on. The man's family background was obviously very ordinary, otherwise he would not have married and had children at this age. The woman was obviously much younger than him. The man must not have curried favor with Zhang Zhiwen for himself, but for his child.

Sure enough, the man said, "Sir, I am very crude here, and I am sorry for neglecting you. I hope you will not be offended. Alas, it is because I have no ability and talent, and my cultivation is wasted. It is just that the child and his mother suffer..."

Zhang Zhiwen listened quietly, and he was not in a hurry. If the other party asked him for something, he would wait for the other party to speak. As long as Zhang Zhiwen could do it, he would not refuse.

But at this moment, a scolding suddenly came from outside the yard.

"Li Dekui, get out of here! Damn it! It's been a month, and you only give me this little thing? You are sending beggars!"
