Nine Transformations of the True Spirit

Qingshan Village, Yunrui County.

In the early morning, the sun has not yet completely risen, the sky is dim, the mist is lingering, the smoke from cooking is curling, and the farmers have already started a busy day.

On the gentle hillside a hundred feet away from the village, Li Qingshan ended a night of meditation and practice, walked out of the door, drove the escape light, flew into the mountain, and came to the outside of the master's cave.

Seven days have passed since the master left.

Every day, Li Qingshan will check the area around the cave to prevent monsters from breaking in.

Although there is a formation guarding outside the master's cave, this place is after all on the outskirts of the Qingkang Mountains, and monsters may appear. Li Qingshan would rather be a little troublesome than let the monsters disturb the master's cave.

This time, he still carefully checked the cave and was about to turn around and leave.

But at this moment, the two heavy stone doors of the cave slowly opened, and the master's gentle voice came out: "Qingshan, come in."

Li Qingshan was delighted and walked quickly into the cave. When he came to the main hall, he saw the master sitting at the stone table, looking at him with a smile

He clasped his fists and bowed, saying respectfully: "Disciple greets the master!"

Chen Yuan said gently: "The master has only been away for a few days, and the cave is guarded by the formation, so you don't have to be so careful."

Li Qingshan shook his head and said seriously: "Master has something to do, and the disciple will do the work, but the master has a high level of cultivation, and the disciple's cultivation is low. I can't share the master's worries, but the master has to take care of everything."

"The disciple can only look after the cave for the master to show his filial piety, how can I neglect it?"

Chen Yuan nodded, it was worth his effort to examine Li Qingshan's character. It was rare to be so loyal and filial.

After leaving Jinshan Market, he went to Fanyang Market. It took him six days and more than 400 high-quality spiritual stones to finally gather the spiritual herbs he needed.

The types of spiritual herbs he needed were not many, but the quantity was not small, and they were all relatively rare.

Chen Yuan went to several shops selling spiritual herbs, but still lacked some. As a last resort, he went to Baibao Pavilion again.

Earlier, when Chen Yuan was chatting with Pei Song, he asked about Cheng Xianmo and learned that he had been transferred to Chongde Market as deputy shopkeeper.

However, the new shopkeeper of Baibao Pavilion in Fanyang Market also had a good relationship with Pei Song. Chen Yuan went to visit him with his token, and the two had a good chat.

When Chen Yuan talked about the spiritual herbs, the new shopkeeper immediately said that there would be a trade fair to be held in the near future, and there would definitely be cultivators who would bring out spiritual herbs.

Chen Yuan waited for two more days and participated in the trade fair. As expected, he gathered all the spiritual herbs.

Afterwards, he exchanged some cultivation experiences with the new shopkeeper before leaving Fanyang Market and returning to Qingshan Village.

After gathering all the spiritual herbs, he could then refine the elixir, and then practice in seclusion to improve his cultivation and strengthen his body until he reached the false infant realm, and then refine the true spirit essence and blood in Kunfeng's demon pill, and finally consider forming an infant

Chen Yuan was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Qingshan, your master will be in seclusion to refine the elixir soon. Please accept this Vajra Talisman. It can save your life in times of crisis."

As he spoke, he raised his right hand, and a golden talisman appeared in his palm, slowly flying towards Li Qingshan.

"Thank you, Master, for the talisman!" Li Qingshan was delighted, took two steps forward, bowed slightly, stretched out his hands, and caught the talisman.

The Vajra Talisman is well-known in the world of immortal cultivation. It is the top-grade spiritual talisman. After being activated, it can transform into a Vajra armor to protect the body. It is difficult for a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building to be hurt, and it can even hold up for a moment in the hands of a cultivator in the Jindan stage.

Chen Yuan went to Fanyang Market this time. Considering that he had to practice in seclusion for a long time and had no time to be distracted, he bought this spiritual talisman and gave it to Li Qingshan for life-saving.

Li Qingshan put the Vajra Talisman into the storage bag, and took out a green cardboard book, presented it with both hands, and said respectfully: "Disciple has another thing to report to Master. Two days after Master left, Feng Yongyan came again to visit Master with a very respectful attitude."

"It was only because Master was not there that he gave this visiting card to the disciple, saying that he was ordered by his father Feng Tiande to invite Master to attend the celebration banquet for the birth of a baby by the head of Bailu Academy, Shipingshanren."

"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Chen Yuan was a little surprised, raised his hand and took the visiting card into his hand.

Opening it, the visiting card is divided into two pages. The beautiful small regular script is written from right to left. The handwriting is neat and the writing is brilliant. It invites Chen Yuan to attend the baby celebration banquet nine days later and apologize to him in person. The signature is "Feng Tiande".

Chen Yuan carefully read the visiting card and nodded slightly. Pei Song's words are true. Feng Tiande is really good at dealing with people and is very careful. It is really puzzling that such a person would have a playboy like Feng Yongyan.

The words between the lines of the visiting card reveal that Feng Tiande wants to settle the matter and his words are sincere.

But Feng Tiande still misjudged Chen Yuan. Of course, he will not let Feng Yongyan go, but he will not do it himself, but leave it to Li Qingshan to take revenge.

Feng Tiande is worried that he will attack Feng Yongyan, but he loves his son so much that he is worried.

But since Feng Tiande's attitude is so sincere and he brought up the baby celebration banquet of Shipingshan people, Chen Yuan can't take it lightly.

He closed the visiting card and looked up at Li Qingshan: "You have done a good job in this matter. Feng Yongyan is here to apologize to me. Feng Tiande is worried that I will take action against Feng Yongyan, so he specially invites me to a banquet and apologizes to me in person."

Li Qingshan snorted coldly: "Like father, like son. Feng Yongyan is greedy and cunning. Feng Tiande also treats a gentleman with a villain's heart. How can master take action against a foundation-building monk? Feng Yongyan will naturally do it." Let the disciples solve it!”

Chen Yuan said calmly: "Let's put Feng Yongyan's matter aside for now and wait until he comes back from a banquet as a teacher. If Feng Tiande is really sincere and wants to put things to rest, then that's it."

"After all, Feng Yongyan's storage bag fell into your hands, and you have already suffered a big loss."

"But if Feng Tiande is not sincere, you will still have to take Feng Yongyan's life yourself in the future."

Hearing this, Li Qingshan suddenly remembered something, touched his storage bag, took out a jade bottle, presented it with both hands, and said respectfully: "Master, my disciple sorted out the things in Feng Yongyan's storage bag and found a pill, spiritual energy." It is very strong, but I have never seen this kind of elixir before, and I don’t know what its effect is. I beg the master to clarify my doubts.”

Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows, raised his hand, took the jade bottle into his hand, opened the cork, tilted it slightly, and poured out a pill.

This elixir is pure white in color, full of spiritual energy, and the fragrance of elixir fills the room. Just by smelling it, I feel an ethereal state of mind, as if I have some enlightenment, but after thinking about it carefully, I have no clue at all, and I can't help but feel a little sad.

Chen Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, he looked at the elixir carefully, and said slowly: "Qingshan, you are really lucky. If my teacher is not mistaken, this elixir should be the Huanzhen elixir."

"Real elixir? The legendary elixir-forming holy object?" Li Qingshan's pupils shrank, his face full of disbelief.

"The Huanzhen Pill can indeed be called a holy object, but it is not a legendary object. It's just that the main ingredient for refining the Huanzhen Pill, the real flower, is a little rarer. If you are willing, you can still find it." Chen Yuan explained. , put the elixir back into the jade bottle, capped the bottle, raised his hand and sent it away, the jade bottle slowly flew towards Li Qingshan.

Li Qingshan raised his hand to catch the jade bottle, held it tightly in his hand, and looked down with surprise in his eyes.

Although he has the qualifications of the Earth Spiritual Root, forming a pill is also a difficult and dangerous obstacle. With the help of Huanzhen Pill, the chance of forming a pill is increased by at least 30%, and his confidence is greatly increased!

He put away the jade bottle and said sternly: "Master, Feng Yongyan sent a rejuvenating pill to the disciple. The loss was heavy, which is enough to offset the hatred between the two of us. The disciple will not trouble him again in the future."

"It's just that Feng Yongyan acted so wantonly, then Feng Tiande may also be a treacherous person. This time he invited Master to the banquet, he may have hidden evil intentions."

"How about I go to White Deer Academy as a disciple and tell Feng Tiande that Master has no intention of targeting Feng Yongyan."

"In this way, he is afraid that the master is outside. No matter what he thinks, he will not attack his disciples, and the master does not have to take risks himself."

Chen Yuan said warmly: "You don't have to worry. The White Deer Academy is not yet called the Dragon Pond or the Tiger's Den. Moreover, I learned from a Taoist friend that Feng Tiande is smooth and well-rounded. He is not a ruthless person. This time I am invited to go there." There should be no malicious intent in the banquet.”

"Besides, the Shipingshan people's baby-birthing banquet is not a secret. The date was set a month ago, and all the alchemy monks within a thousand miles radius were invited. Even if Feng Tiande wanted to plot against him, he would not dare to disturb the baby-birthing banquet. , otherwise the Shipingshan people would be the first to spare him.”

"This time Feng Tiande sent his parents and children to send him a greeting card. He spoke sincerely and apologized in person. This has already given him enough face. If he didn't go to the banquet, he would have made a grudge against him. Therefore, this time the baby was born. I must go to the congratulatory banquet in person."

When he was chatting with Pei Song, he once heard Pei Song say that after the Shipingshan people returned to Bailu Academy, they would hold a baby-birth banquet and invite all their colleagues.

This is a common practice in the world of immortality. The newly promoted Nascent Soul monks want to show their existence and expand the sphere of influence of the sect. It is just a good time to use the baby wedding banquet to scare other sects and families, so that they can discuss the follow-up.

In addition, in order to thank the fellow monks who attended the banquet, the newly promoted Nascent Soul monks will also give lectures for three days, telling about the extremely precious experience of forming a baby for the Dan-Jie Dan monks.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Chen Yuan, and he didn't take it to heart at the time, but since Feng Tiande invited him to the banquet, he wanted to go through it just for the experience of having a baby.

Li Qingshan looked horrified: "My disciple's thinking is shallow and I almost made Master an enemy. I ask Master to punish me."

Chen Yuan smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, you are also worried about my teacher's safety. How can I blame you?"

"Now that you have the storage bags of Feng Yongyan and Cheng Zaiming, there is no shortage of spiritual stones and elixirs. You can't use the magic weapons of those two people. You can go to the market to sell them and replace them with elixirs. You can practice diligently and understand the light." The art of transformation."

"Only by improving your cultivation level and meeting people like Feng Yongyan in the future can you kill them with one sword."

Li Qingshan bowed deeply and said solemnly: "Yes!"

He turned around and walked out of the cave. Chen Yuan also stood up and walked into the training room, meditating and practicing, waiting for the baby wedding banquet nine days later. (End of chapter)
