Mortal Bones

Xu Taiping nodded and opened the envelope in his hand——

"Accepting the commission from Queen Qi of the White Tree Kingdom, in three months, the Sixth Princess of the White Tree Kingdom will go to the Black Eagle Kingdom for peace talks. Both the White Tree Kingdom and the Black Eagle Kingdom are trying their best to prevent the peace talks. Therefore, the journey of the Six Princesses will be extremely dangerous. Xu Taiping, you must Make sure the Sixth Princess reaches the Black Eagle Country safely, and then send her back to the White Tree Country safely after completing this peace negotiation.”

After reading the content of the letter, Zhao Linglong and Qingxiao both relaxed.

"I have been to both the White Tree Country and the Black Eagle Country. They are both secular countries. Most of the people practice martial arts. There are some casual practitioners, but not many. Their strength is mostly around the Open Door Realm. There are only one or two nobles in the palace. Loose cultivators in the secluded realm.”

Dugu Qingxiao introduced to Xu Taiping.

"That's right. If it's just an escort mission, it won't be too difficult. I'm just afraid of encountering demon slaying and demon slaying missions."

Zhao Linglong also nodded.

"How can it be possible for a disciple to go on the demon elimination mission alone?"

Qingxiao shook his head.

"But even so, Taiping, you still need to know more about the White Tree Kingdom and the Black Eagle Kingdom. You can buy the information about these two countries in the Bronze Mirror."

he continued.

"Don't worry, senior brother, I will definitely investigate carefully."

Xu Taiping nodded and put away the letter.

It was just an escort mission in a secular country, and he felt that he could still handle it. Moreover, he had not been out of the mountains for three years, and he was somewhat looking forward to returning to the secular market again.

"Okay, junior brother, please tidy up this yard first. Your senior sister and I won't disturb you."

Qingxiao picked up Zhao Linglong and left.

"Junior brother, take care of yourself. If anything happens, send me a message."

Although Zhao Linglong wanted to stay a little longer, her arms couldn't twist her thighs, so she had to wave to Xu Taiping.

"Well, see you later, senior sister."

Xu Taiping nodded.

He does have a lot to do.

…

This night.

Inside the Qiyuexuan stone building.

"Sister Lingyue, I feel that this Danxia Technique has made up for many shortcomings of the Canxia Gong. For example, the time it takes to condense the Xuan Bing Armor has been shortened to within five breaths. The strength of the Xuan Bing Armor can also be increased with the infusion of true energy. Increased by the amount of yuan.”

"In addition, my speed of refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has also been greatly improved. I could not complete a Great Zhoutian in an hour before, but now I can complete a Great Zhoutian in half an hour."

After running the Danxia Jue for a week, Xu Taiping happily told Fairy Lingyue his feelings.

"You caught on quickly."

Fairy Lingyue smiled and nodded.

While she was praising Xu Taiping, she couldn't help but sigh again at the wonder of Tong Ming Dao's heart, which actually allowed Xu Taiping to have such an understanding of Danxia Jue in such a short period of time.

"However, compared to the Xuanling Bone, or even the normal White Spirit Bone, my speed should still be at the bottom."

Xu Taiping scratched his head and sighed.

Although his current cultivation speed is much higher than before, it is only relative to himself.

"Don't worry, you still have a lot of gentian wine left, enough for you to break through to the Tongxuan realm."

Fairy Lingyue smiled and comforted Xu Taiping, and then said: "In addition, we can also start preparing the ingredients for the 'Acupuncture and Opening Up' soup. Just like the bone-cleansing and marrow-removing soup, it can further improve your health." "Practice speed."

"Um!"

Xu Taiping nodded vigorously.

After purchasing the technique last time, he still had 10,000 merit points left, plus his own remaining 1,000 merit points, which was enough to buy a good knife and a few sets of medicinal materials.

"I have grown a lot of materials for Qi Gathering Pills in the medicine garden of Qingzhu Residence, which is probably enough to refine ten Qi Gathering Pills, but I still have to buy a pill furnace."

He then began to think again.

In addition to what he just told Fairy Lingyue, he also had to prepare in advance the elixir materials needed to break through the Tongxuan realm, the true fire talisman for burning the seeds of the earth fruit, and the nutrients for inoculating the earth fruit.

The more he calculated, the more he felt that the merit points he had earned were not enough.

"You have more than ten acres of fairyland and medicine garden. I will help you set up a small spirit gathering array later. I will also use gentian wine to nourish the elixirs in the medicine garden from time to time. I will help you earn 10,000 to 20,000 merits a year." It’s no problem.”

Fairy Lingyue also helped Xu Taiping calculate at this time.

"With Sister Lingyue's help, I can't be idle. After this downhill trial, without losing track of my practice progress, I'll see if I can take on more tasks to earn merit."

According to senior brother Qing Xiao, a sect mission with level A difficulty can earn at least 30,000 merit points. This is how most inner sect disciples earn their merit points.

"According to the letter, after completing this training mission, I will also be able to earn 6,000 merit points. I should be able to buy a good True Fire Talisman."

Xu Taiping suddenly muttered to himself again.

"There's no need for the True Fire Talisman."

Fairy Lingyue smiled and shook her head.

"No need?"

Xu Taiping was a little puzzled.

Whether it is for him or Fairy Lingyue, cultivating Earth Fruit is a top priority.

"I have prepared a technique for tempering true fire for you."

Fairy Lingyue said with a smile.

"But Sister Lingyue, after I practice your technique, what should I do if your enemies find out?"

Xu Taiping asked worriedly.

"So this technique can only be used when burning seeds for the Earth Fruit and when your life is in danger. Can you do that?"

Fairy Lingyue asked Xu Taiping very seriously.

"I can!"

Xu Taiping nodded very firmly after hearing this.

After three years of getting along, he has completely trusted Fairy Lingyue. After going up the mountain, he has increasingly felt the importance of strong cultivation strength, so of course he will not refuse such an opportunity.

Fairy Lingyue smiled very beautifully after hearing this.

In fact, she was willing to teach this technique to Xu Taiping, and she was ready to bear the price of her identity being discovered by her enemies. After all, there are always accidents in everything.

Even so, she was still willing to do so, because Xu Taiping was worth the risk.

"Come closer."

Fairy Lingyue waved at Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping immediately moved his body in front of Fairy Lingyue.

Then, Fairy Lingyue stretched out a finger and gently touched Xu Taiping's forehead as she did last time.

"Buzz..."

A buzzing sound like tinnitus sounded in Xu Taiping's mind.

Immediately afterwards, long passages of the essence of the technique flooded into Xu Taiping's brain like a tide.

After a moment.

Xu Taiping finally opened his eyes, and then said with some excitement:

"Sister Lingyue, this set of Red Crow Golden Flame Art you gave me is actually a heavenly-level technique?"
