Early morning, Lu family.
Lu Qing woke up from practice.
The spiritual stone held in his hand has become dim and its aura has been exhausted.
However, he felt the magic elixir in his body and let out a sigh.
After refining a whole piece of low-grade spiritual stone, the power of his mana golden elixir increased by an almost insignificant amount.
"There are not many spirit stones left. If this continues, I'm afraid it will be a long way from completing the first turn of the Golden Elixir."
Lu Qing thought to himself.
It has been a year since Uncle Zhao passed away.
In this year, Lu Qing has already deduced and perfected the first three turns of the [Perfect Golden Elixir Method].
But his progress in cultivation can be described as slow.
It is still the first time to enter the realm of golden elixir.
The first turn is only half completed, and there is still a long way to go before the first turn is completely completed.
And this is the result of him using spiritual stones to practice.
If he did not have spiritual stones and only relied on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to practice, I am afraid that his cultivation level would increase at an alarmingly slow rate.
The reason for this is that the current concentration of spiritual energy in heaven and earth is no longer enough to supply his cultivation needs.
Even with the formation in the Yuhua Cave, the speed at which spiritual energy can be gathered is far behind the speed at which he can breathe in and refine it.
As a result, Lu Qing could only feel a significant improvement in his cultivation level in the second half of the year by using spiritual stones to practice.
But the spiritual stones in his hand are limited after all. After half a year of cultivation, most of the low-grade spiritual stones in his hand have been consumed.
Lu Qing estimated that even if he used all the remaining spirit stones for cultivation, it would at most be able to support him to complete the first level of cultivation, which would be comparable to the second level.
"If the first turn is so difficult to complete, wouldn't it cost twice as much spiritual stone for the second turn?"
Lu Qing's scalp felt numb just thinking about it.
Although the Perfect Golden Pill is powerful, its cultivation also consumes countless times more resources than other Golden Pills.
Lu Qing couldn’t even imagine how terrifying the resources he would need would be when he reached the late stage of the Golden Core Realm.
This perfect golden elixir is truly a gold-swallowing behemoth!
"And since the fifth sound of the heaven and earth, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth has increased and gradually stabilized.
The next time the sound of the sound is expected to take a long time to sound."
Lu Qing quietly sensed, feeling that the rules of the surrounding heaven and earth have become very stable.
The next transformation may take a long time.
He had already expected this.
"Yan" also told him that in the last era of immortal cultivation, it took hundreds of years of brewing from the recovery of spiritual energy before the concentration of spiritual energy truly reached its peak.
It has not been long since the earth has recovered, and it will take a long time to wait for the next transformation.
"
As an old antique who survived the last era of immortal cultivation, "Yan" knows a lot of secret things.
This includes the locations of some of the more famous spiritual stone veins in the last era of cultivating immortals.
I just don’t know if there are any spiritual stones that have been nurtured in those places now that the world has only recovered a little while ago.
Just as Lu Qing was thinking about his future path of practice, something suddenly moved in his heart.
He took out a jade talisman from his arms and read it with his mind.
This jade talisman is a messenger jade talisman he refined, which can transmit messages with spiritual thoughts.
A message came from the jade talisman.
"Ah Qing, after you leave the customs, come here."
This is the message from the master.
"Master, what do you want from me?"
Lu Qing's heart moved slightly.
Without much thought, he left the quiet room and quickly arrived at the small courtyard in the middle of the mountain.
As soon as he entered the yard, he saw the master drinking tea with the two of them under the plum tree.
One of them was Lin Zhirui, but the other one was a bit unexpected to him.
"Senior Tianji Building Master?"
Lu Qing was very surprised to see the immortal old man.
“Lu Xiaolang, long time no see.” The owner of Tianji Building smiled.
No need to give in too much, it’s a land of outstanding people at first glance. It’s no wonder that a genius like you, Lu Xiaolangjun, can be born.”
The owner of Tianji said in admiration.
"Senior is ridiculous." Lu Qing smiled and said: "But how come you have time to come to Cangzhou?"
Lu Qing knows that people like the master of Tianji have many things to do every day, so they should not leave Zhongzhou unless necessary.
Furthermore, the master sent a special message to him to come over, so something must have happened.
While Lu Qing was thinking, the owner of Tianji was also observing him.
Then he discovered that, just like when he was in Zhongzhou, even though his cultivation had made some breakthroughs recently, he still couldn't see through Lu Qing's reality at all.
In addition to being able to feel that he is even more unfathomable, nothing else can be seen.
His celestial calculation technique has no effect on Lu Qing.
Recalling the information Zhirui sent to him before, the owner of Tianji understood in his heart.
Lu Qing's cultivation has truly reached an extremely advanced level that is difficult for them to fathom.
"To be honest, Mr. Xiaolang, I came here this time because I did have something to do."
When Lu Qing asked, the owner of the Tianji building did not show off and said directly.
"I was entrusted by someone to ask Mr. Lu Xiaolang about something."
"Oh? I don't know what it is. If this junior knows, he will definitely tell you everything." Lu Qing said.
Seeing Lu Qing say this, the owner of Tianji suddenly became solemn and looked at Lu Qing seriously.
said: "This matter is related to Xuankong Mountain, one of the four secret places.
A year ago, a mysterious strong man wearing a ghost mask killed many disciples and elders in Xuankong Mountain.
Forced Xuankong Shan could only hide in a secret place, staying behind closed doors.
There was no news about them in the world for more than a year.
Originally, everyone thought that Xuankong Shan was afraid of the strong man with the grimace.
Coupled with the fact that the two strangers from outer space were powerful at that time, they hid in a secret place and kept a low profile and never came out.
But later, the two strangers were killed by you, Mr. Xiao Lang, and disappeared for a long time.
There is still no sign of the emergence of Xuankong Mountain in Xizhou.
Not long ago, there were other secret places, and I couldn't help but send people to Xizhou to inquire about the news.
But he was very surprised to find that the secret place in Xuankong Mountain could no longer be contacted.
His request for a visit received no response at all.
Finally, other secret places came to the conclusion after multiple investigations.
The secret place in Xuankong Mountain has disappeared.
It’s not so-called staying behind closed doors, it’s that even the people and the entire secret space have completely disappeared.
Lu Xiaolangjun, do you know what is going on? "
Being stared closely at by the owner of Tianji, Lu Qing smiled calmly:
"From what my senior said, do you think this matter has something to do with me?"
The owner of Tianji did not speak.
There are some things that don’t need to be stated so clearly.
But an ancient secret place that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years will disappear quietly.
No force in the entire world can do such a terrible thing.
If he really had to guess, besides Lu Qing, he couldn't think of anyone else who had such magical powers.
After all, this person can easily kill the two extremely powerful aliens from the Golden Core Realm.
More importantly, Lu Qing also has an irresolvable grudge with Xuankong Mountain.
After various speculations, although I can’t believe it.
But the owner of Tianji Tower believes that if the disappearance of the secret place in Xuankong Mountain is man-made.
Other than Lu Qing, there is no other person who can do such an incredible thing.
Seeing the look in the eyes of the owner of Tianji, Lu Qing smiled: "Since the senior poster already has the answer in his heart, why bother asking me again."
The owner of Tianji was shocked: "In this way, it is really..."
"I don't know other things, I can only tell senior.
Yes, the secret land of Xuankong Mountain has completely disappeared.
From now on, there are only three secret places in the world.
Hangkong Mountain has become history. 》
Tianji Louzhu and Lin Zhirui were immediately shocked on the spot.
Although they had already made some guesses before coming.
But that was just speculation, and Xuankong Mountain did not necessarily really die.
Perhaps some secret method was used to seal this secret place.
After all, as an ancient force inherited from the previous era of cultivating immortals, it is not too difficult to understand what powerful formation methods it possesses.
So now it is really confirmed from Lu Qingkou that Xuankong Mountain has completely disappeared and has become history.
The master and the apprentice were still extremely shocked.
On the contrary, it was the old doctor on the side who looked calm.
Lu Qing had told him a year ago that Xuankong Mountain had been destroyed.
"Lu Xiaolangjun, this, this is really..."
After a while, the owner of Tianji came back to his senses, but he didn't know what to say at the moment.
"It's just the destruction of a secret place, why should I care about it, senior.
And senior, let me guess, besides the monks of Hanging Mountain, what else did the junior see in the secret place of Xuankong Mountain?"
The owner of the Tianji Building was stunned, but with his keen mind, he suddenly thought of something.
"Is it possible..."
"Yes, the remnants of Wujielou who were once surrounded and suppressed by the entire world's forces are living well in the secret place of Xuankong Mountain.
But seniors, don't worry, they also followed the secret place and died in silence."
"Is that really so..."
The owner of Tianji Tower murmured.
In fact, when the remnants of Wujie Tower reappeared, he had already made a rough guess.
It is only now confirmed by Lu Qing.
「晚辈知道前辈此番前来的意思了，前辈可以告诉拜托您的人。
晚辈向来是恩怨分明的，并不会轻易开杀戒。
只要没有招惹到我，晚辈也并不是那么喜欢与人结仇的。」
Lu Qing understood that the disappearance of Xuankong Mountain must have caused panic in the other three secret places.
After all, an ancient strength that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, and has a secret realm as its backing, disappears as soon as it disappears.
If this matter is not clear, I am afraid that the people in the other three secret places will not be able to sleep peacefully.
Hence, he also gave his attitude to the owner of Tianji.
As long as you don't provoke him, everything is fine.
But if anyone is ignorant, he wouldn’t mind letting what happened in the secret place of Xuankong Mountain happen again.
The owner of Tianji naturally heard the meaning of Lu Qing’s words.
He immediately said: "Don't worry, Mr. Lu Xiaolang, I will definitely convey your words to the other three secret places."
“Okay, let’s get down to business, let’s sit down and drink tea.”
At this time, the old doctor spoke at the right time to dissolve the solemn atmosphere around him.
Just in time, the spring water boiling in front of him also began to boil.
The owner of Tianji sat down.
The old doctor began to brew plum tea.
Hence the boiling spring water, and soon, a strange fragrance floats out from the pot and quickly spreads throughout the yard.
When the owner of Tianji smelled this fragrance, his heart and spleen suddenly felt refreshed, and the spiritual power in his body was faintly affected.
He looked at the plum tea poured out by the old doctor in surprise, and couldn't help but praise: "Good tea!"
Lin Zhirui smiled and said: "Master, you have to taste it. The plum tea produced by Senior Chen is the only one in the world. It is not an exaggeration to say it is the best tea in the world!"
Zhirui was very impressed. It's just that the scented tea produced by this plum tree is a bit strange. How can it deserve the title of the best tea in the world." The old doctor shook his head.
Hand handed the first cup of tea to the owner of Tianji: "Please, sir."
Hunter Tianji did not refuse. He took the cup of tea and saw that the tea was clear and fragrant.
He couldn't help but take a sip.
His mouth was filled with saliva as the tea entered his mouth. After taking a sip of plum tea, the spiritual energy in his body began to circulate involuntarily and he became much more lively.
The owner of Tianji could not help but widen his eyes: "This plum tea..."
"Haha, Master, have you felt the beauty of this plum tea?" Lin Zhirui said happily, "This plum tea is no longer just an ordinary tea.
It contains aura, which can activate spiritual power and increase cultivation.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a magical medicine, it is a real spiritual tea.
That’s why my disciples say it is the best tea in the world. "
"This plum tea really deserves this title."
The owner of Tianji couldn’t help but admire it.
At the same time, I couldn't help but marvel in my heart.
This visit really shocked him too much.
Even though he had heard his disciple mention the strangeness of Jiuli Village before, he was still very surprised when he saw the village with his own eyes.
The spiritual energy gathered in this remote mountain village is no worse than that of Zhongzhou.
Even he couldn't figure out the formation that protected the village.
Now I have tasted the spiritual tea that can increase my cultivation.
No wonder Zhirui never wanted to go back to Zhongzhou ever since he came here.
This is really an excellent place for practice.
Listening to the praise of the owner of Tianji, Lu Qing did not say anything, but just picked up the tea and took a sip.
Since he set up a formation and gathered the earth energy from all directions into the village, the plum tree in the small courtyard on the mountainside has become more and more magical.
Now it has a strong spirituality and can be called a real spiritual tree.
The plum blossoms that grow are also of great benefit to low-level monks like Master Tianji and Lin Zhirui.
Of course, to him, it is just tea that tastes better.
His current cultivation level, apart from spiritual stones, can only be useful if it is true elixirs, and the grade cannot be too low.
Thinking about the progress of his cultivation, Lu Qing couldn't help but have a headache again.
