I traveled through time and space, and I exchanged my life for krypton

Chapter 70 Heavy Water Spirit



The spiritual land that Wei Zhong rented this time was also an island, named Yunxia Island.

Strictly speaking, this island is a peninsula, adjacent to Yunxi River, a tributary of the Luo River. It is a second-level high-grade spiritual land.

Although Yunxi is named after a stream, it is actually an extremely wide river. There is an unknown spiritual vein at the bottom of the river, which nourishes various spiritual lands of different sizes, high or low, in the surrounding area.

Yunxia Island is one of them. The island is close to Yunxi River and is soaked in water mist all year round. The sky is always covered with white clouds.

In addition, when the sun sets, the red clouds will sprinkle between the white clouds and the island, so it is named Yunxia Island.

Although the island here is higher than the spiritual level of Black Lake Island, its area is much smaller.

It is not possible to plant spiritual rice and elixirs on a large scale like Black Lake Island, so it does not require too many people to maintain it.

So Wei Zhong recruited three people from the market to take care of the spiritual island for him, namely Hu Zongfu, Zou Ruiyuan, and Tang Yanhong.

Hu Zongfu is an old man with a gray beard. He is at the fifth level of Qi Refining. He has many years of experience as a spiritual farmer and is good at caring for spiritual fields.

Wei Zhong then handed over all the spiritual fields on the island to him to take care of. Wei Zhong did not rely on these acres of spiritual fields to support him anyway.

It is worth mentioning that Hu Zongfu also has a special physique, the body of vegetation.

It can barely be regarded as a kind of spiritual body, but it is the last among the low-grade spiritual bodies. The effect is only a slight increase in its wood spirit root qualifications, and it cannot uplift its low-grade wood spirit roots to the mid-grade level.

The only thing worthy of praise is that this physique makes him a good hand in farming, and he is very handy with the wood spells required by various spiritual farmers.

"From now on, the spiritual fields on Yunxia Island will be handed over to you. You can plan what is suitable for planting. If you still need manpower, you can recruit it yourself. Just report it to Linghua later," Wei Zhong said to him and pointed Pointing to Xie Linghua beside her.

Then he looked at the second person Zou Ruiyuan. This person was at the eighth level of Qi refining and was good at fighting. Because he was injured in a robbery in his early years, he no longer lived a life of licking blood like a casual cultivator, but instead became a cultivator. Senior Ji Zhu looks after the house and the courtyard.

The other person, Tang Yanhong, is a slightly older female cultivator who is also at the eighth level of Qi refining. Wei Zhong uses her as Xie Linghua's assistant to help her take care of the spiritual island's common things.

"The same goes for you and the other two. If you lack manpower, just recruit it yourself." Then Wei Zhong looked at Xie Linghua and held her little hand, "Next, you'll have to work hard again."

A smile appeared on the latter's face: "It is what I should do to share my worries with you."

Xie Linghua is a smart person. Even if Wei Zhong changed his name from "Chu Zhong" to "Wei Zhong", she did not interfere at all out of curiosity.

On the contrary, Ling Ziwei on the other side is a bit naughty, yes, naughty.

It seems that within a few days, he and Wei Zhong have become good friends and talk about everything. Wei Zhong has been asking questions non-stop since Wei Zhong changed his real name.

Wei Zhong really couldn't bear it, so he had to say that he wanted to change his identity for the sake of safety.

At the same time, after this period of communication, Wei Zhong also learned a lot about the other party.

He was born in a family surnamed Ling. Originally, the highest cultivation level in the family was only in qi refining, but his elder brothers, Ling Hua and Ling Mengwei, were two geniuses.

The elder brother has a high-grade earth spiritual root, and the younger sister has a high-grade golden spiritual root.

After practicing for many years, they have all reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment. In recent years, Ling Hua has even been able to break through to Core Formation, raising the Ling family of the Foundation Establishment family to another level and becoming a prestigious family in Luohe Prefecture.

Moreover, this person had been among casual cultivators in his early years. He had many friends and a wide network of contacts, including Sikong Changming, a monk in the middle stage of the alchemy process.

The two are considered brothers, which is why Sikong Changming calls Ling Ziwei, the sister of the Ling family.

"I've been troublesome with Fairy Ling these days. Now that Yunxia Island is in ruins and waiting for development, it's not convenient for Fairy Ling to be our guest.

How about inviting the fairy after Pindao takes care of the island? "

Wei Zhong said politely with a smile.

The latter sighed: "My Taoist friend is right. Riding in the boat for several days will definitely be tiring, so I will leave now and see you another day."

After saying this, he took Xie Linghua's hands from Wei Zhong's hands and whispered something in his ear, causing the other person's face to be covered with red clouds.

Ling Ziwei and Xie Linghua are very familiar with each other these days, and the two of them often refer to each other as sisters.

Then he waved his hand towards Wei Zhong and left.

Wei Zhong had no choice but to wait until the other party had gone away, dismissed his men, and then asked:

"What did Fairy Ling ask you just now?"

Xie Linghua followed Wei Zhong after all: "Sister Ling asked the master if he had any marriages in recent years, if he had any Taoist couples or anything like that."

'Oh! ’

Wei Zhong was already used to Ling Ziwei's jumping off, and he couldn't help but laugh at this moment.

"Then how did you answer?"

"Of course I answer truthfully," Xie Linghua grasped Wei Zhong's sleeves, "Sir, Sister Ling is sincere. Do you want to consider accepting her?"

Wei Zhong shook his head: "The other person is just a young girl. How can we talk about feelings in just a few days? The novelty will naturally fade away after a while."

Speaking of which, according to Ling Ziwei, he is not too old. He is only over a hundred years old after practicing so far. He is considered to be the youngest among the monks in the late stage of foundation establishment, nearly a hundred years younger than Wei Zhong.

Wei Zhong also treated the other party as an ignorant child.

"By the way, master, do you want to find some maids to serve him in his daily life?"

Wei Zhong flicked the other party's forehead with his fingertips: "Just find one or two maids to serve tea and pour wine. Remember to find some who are innocent."

After saying this, Wei Zhong deployed the blue water and green lotus array he brought around the island, then nodded and returned to the training room.

After finally escaping from the quagmire of Mangyuan Mansion and arriving at Luohe Mansion, I naturally wanted to practice happily.

By the way, they also seek various rare resources. When Wei Zhong came, he heard Ling Ziwei say that there are many large secret realms in Luohe Mansion, and the resources among them are not comparable to the small secret realms like Qingchuan Secret Realm that have been plundered for many years.

Maybe you can find rare things that can be used to cultivate spiritual bodies.

······

eight years,

Xie Linghua knocked on the door of the training room.

"Come in."

Xie Linghua moved her steps lightly: "Master, this is the list of people who asked me to make elixirs this month, and the collected medicinal materials are also placed here."

Wei Zhong took it, glanced at it a few times, and said: "There is no need to accept these first-level elixir requests from now on. It is a waste of time."

"Yes, sir. In addition, Sister Ling invited me to go to Luohe River to enjoy the tide at the end of this month. I wonder?"

Wei Zhong held his forehead with a headache. Ever since Wei Zhong came to Yunxia Island, he had used various methods to repay Ling Ziwei's kindness in leading the way. Then he concentrated on practicing and gradually reduced his contacts with her.

However, Ling Ziwei's "harassment" of Wei Zhong never stopped. She would sometimes go to the island to have a drink with Wei Zhong, or go out to play with Xie Linghua.

He didn't look like a late-stage foundation-building monk who practiced hard.

This time, I wanted to invite Wei Zhong to enjoy the tide of Luo River together.

Many years ago, Wei Zhong took Xie Linghua to see it out of curiosity. It was an annual wonder in Luohe.

At that time, the Luo River will set off a raging tide at its intersection with various tributaries. This tide can reach a maximum height of more than thirty feet, and countless kinds of spiritual fish and even various spiritual objects will be rolled up in it.

Especially at night, those sparkling lights are truly beautiful.

But to Wei Zhong, a soul that had traveled through time, it looked very ordinary. It was not like he had never seen anything glowing before, but this one was just a bit bigger.

So I lost interest after watching it once.

"If you don't go, just tell me that my cultivation has reached a critical moment of breakthrough and I don't have time."

Xie Linghua smiled, "Every time, the master will use this reason to excuse Sister Ling."

In fact, Wei Zhong was really not prevaricating this time.

After Xie Linghua left, Wei Zhong gathered the elixir and ducked into the cave.

After drinking the spirit wine and sitting cross-legged and performing the exercises for only a quarter of an hour, the invisible barriers in the body naturally broke through.

Wei Zhong looked in front of him, and a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes.

[Name: Wei Zhong]

[Cultivation: fifth level of foundation building (1%)]

[Exercise: Spring and Autumn Water Refining Technique·Master Master (36%)]

[Shouyuan: 175/275]

[Level 2 Alchemy·Water·Proficiency (4%)]

To successfully break through from the fourth level of foundation building to the fifth level of foundation building, it should have taken eleven years to accurately calculate the time at this level.

The passage of time made Wei Zhong feel a little depressed. The restrictions on his qualifications were too serious for him. Although he had enough resources, he digested it too slowly.

It takes ten years to reach each level in the middle stage of foundation building, and I don’t know what it will be like in the later stage of foundation building, which is even more difficult.

In the eight years since he came to Luohe Mansion, Wei Zhong has completely abandoned his identity as Chu Zhong, a casual cultivator in Mangyuan Mansion. Even the craft of wine making is currently only known to Xie Linghua.

Wei Zhong is now a casual cultivator stationed on Yunxia Island and a second-level alchemist. He is quite famous in the community because he accepts various alchemy tasks from casual cultivators.

Even the extremely difficult foundation-building pill in the second level has been successful several times, and he is regarded as a master of alchemy.

Of course, Wei Zhong doesn't care about these fame and fortune.

Only Wei Zhong understands how much he has paid to create a new personality in recent years.

The skill of alchemy will not grow on its own, but requires constant practice. For this reason, Wei Zhong's biggest expense in recent years has been the loss of alchemy.

Even the cost of cultivation is less than that.

Thinking of Wei Zhong, he felt a little heartbroken, but this skill was also necessary for Wei Zhong. Since his qualifications were limited, he would inevitably need various realm-breaking elixirs in the future.

These elixirs are rare and rarely remain in the contribution point database of the Gathering Chamber of Commerce. Once they appear, they will be replaced by others immediately.

He took out his guest token, and the "9" contribution points at the top had turned into "42".

Originally, he had accumulated more than 3,000 contribution points in the past few days, but Wei Zhong changed his mind to a spiritual body forging method.

【Heavy Water Spirit】

This is the spiritual body method that Wei Zhong exchanged.

This spirit body is a water-attributed spirit body, and as its name shows, it has the word "heavy".

The owner of this spiritual body has a spiritual power that is naturally different from ordinary people, revealing a heavy power. This characteristic is very similar to the characteristics of "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art".

In addition, the heavy water spirit body also has various incredible powers, such as water-type aura affinity, suitable for body refining and other characteristics.

The reason why Wei Zhong chose this kind of spiritual body was not only because it was compatible with his own exercises, but also because it was easier to get started.

It is not like most spirits that come up and need all kinds of rare treasures that Wei Zhong has never heard of.

Instead, there are obvious grades, from Shijun and Baijun to later Qianjun, Wanjun and so on.

The required spiritual items are also ordered from low to high.

There is no need to consider the ten-jun Wei Zhong. This kind is equivalent to a miscellaneous spiritual root that does not enter the grade and will not help Wei Zhong at all.

‘Let’s start with Baijun, which is equivalent to the bonus of low-grade spiritual roots.

How can two low-grade water spiritual roots have some improvement effect?

The main spiritual object required is called Bailing Water Stone. This object is not a stone, but a special spiritual object formed by great pressure. It exists in the big rivers and lakes containing spiritual veins.

It seems that there is a production in Luo River, and there will be a lot of Bailing Water Stones every year when the tide rises. ’

"It seems that I can go to watch the tide this time."

After practicing for a while to stabilize his cultivation, Wei Zhong came out of retreat and called Xie Linghua:

"Fairy Ling invited me to watch the tide this time, so please accept it."

Xie Linghua looked a little confused, but still said: "Okay, I will inform Sister Ling right away."

After Wei Zhong gave the order, he returned to the cave.

He came to his wine cellar, opened a jar of spiritual wine, smelled the wine aroma, and frowned.

"Failed again?"

Wei Zhong has not stopped researching spiritual wine in the past eight years, especially the spiritual wine "Warm Tears" that warms the spiritual consciousness, and has tried to improve it many times.

Unfortunately, it still failed. Although an enhanced version with slightly higher efficacy was developed, the cost-effectiveness was too low. It was better for Wei Zhong to go to the market to buy soul-nourishing pills.

He put away the spirit wine. Although the effect was a little worse, it was better than nothing. He spent all the spirit stones and couldn't just throw them away.

After sorting out the spirit wine, Wei Zhong returned to practice and didn't come out until the end of the month.

At this time, Xie Linghua had been waiting for a long time outside the practice room, and Ling Ziwei, who was dressed in purple, was standing beside him.

Wei Zhong bowed his hands: "Fellow Daoist Ling, long time no see."

The latter curled his lips: "Fellow Daoist Wei is a busy man. I haven't been able to invite you for so long."

"Haha, you are indeed busy practicing," Wei Zhong said, and then he put away some of his hidden.

Ling Ziwei looked surprised: "Fellow Daoist has successfully advanced to the middle stage of foundation building?"

Xie Linghua on the side also had a happy look on her face.

"That's right, after practicing for decades, I finally reached this realm," Wei Zhong also replied with a smile.

"Daoyou, if you continue to practice for a few decades, you will not be far from the late stage of foundation building," Ling Ziwei said jokingly.

Wei Zhong's face was a little gloomy:

"I can't compare with the fairy's talent. It's not easy for me to practice to this point. I don't know when I will reach the late stage of foundation building."

Seeing Wei Zhong's disappointment, Ling Ziwei also knew that she had spoken out of turn.

During these days of building a good relationship with Wei Zhong and Xie Linghua, she also knew that Wei Zhong's aptitude was not very good.

At this moment, he was promoted to the middle stage of foundation building, which was considered old.

"Let's not talk about this. The Luo River is about to rise. We need to hurry over."

"That's right," Wei Zhong whistled, and a nine-color bird fell from the branch.

It kept getting bigger as it fell, and finally turned into more than ten feet long.

Looking at the nine-color bird that was slightly bigger than before, Wei Zhong was surprised. Since it entered the second stage, he had not taken special care of it.

I didn't expect that after eight years, it has grown so much, but its power has not changed much, and it is still in the early stage of the second stage.

Seeing Jiucai, Wei Zhong thought of Dajin again.

Ever since the two scaly spiritual herbs showed signs of fruiting, Dajin has been waiting in the cave, but there has been no response after waiting for so long.

Wei Zhong has searched for information about this kind of spiritual herbs in the Yunji Chamber of Commerce, but found nothing.

It seems that these two companion spiritual herbs have a greater origin, including Dajin, who must have an extraordinary bloodline.

"Master!"

Xie Linghua and Ling Ziwei were already standing on Jiucai's back, waving at the stunned Wei Zhong.

Wei Zhong took a step forward, and Jiucai let out a cry and circled into the sky.

"Linghua, has Jiucai become a little fatter recently?"

As soon as these words came out, Ling Ziwei rolled her eyes immediately.

Xie Linghua chuckled and said, "Master, Sister Ling has brought a lot of good things to Jiucai in the past few years, so he has grown up a little."

"Oh?"

Wei Zhong felt a little strange in his heart. How could his bird be raised by others?

"Hehe, if other foundation-building cultivators had such a spiritual beast, they would definitely treat it as a treasure. How could they be so indifferent like Wei Daoyou?"

After saying this, Ling Ziwei also bent over and touched the feathers on Jiucai's back:

"It's still Jiucai's fur that feels comfortable."

Wei Zhong's mouth twitched slightly. Perhaps some people are naturally unable to resist these furry objects.

But after chatting for a few words, Wei Zhong and others arrived at the destination of this trip.

The source of Yunxi, Luohe River.

As one of the famous tributaries of Luohe River, this place is an excellent viewing spot every time the tide rises.

When Wei Zhong arrived, many cultivators had gathered nearby, some riding on magic instruments and flying boats, and some flying birds and spiritual beasts.

But among these spirit beasts, the Nine-Colored with multiple colors on its feathers is definitely a different species, attracting many eyes.

"It's Fairy Ling and Master Wei."

The arrival of Wei Zhong and others immediately attracted many eyes. Ling Ziwei is a late-stage foundation-building cultivator, good at formations, and a beautiful female cultivator, so she has a high reputation in this area.

Wei Zhong has gained such popularity because of the name of the master of alchemy he has built up in recent years.

Many fellow Taoists around greeted him, and Wei Zhong agreed to them one by one, which was considered to be the ultimate etiquette.

Looking down at the river, the wind and waves have been stirred up, and layers of waves are constantly piling up, gradually beginning to breed a larger tide.

At the same time, it was sunset, and pieces of red clouds were sprinkled on the river.

Wei Zhong simply took out the tables, chairs and benches, put them on the table with spiritual food and spiritual wine, sat down with the two girls, and began to kill this boring time.

"Fairy Ling, please protect Linghua later," Wei Zhong said.

"No problem. Will Fellow Daoist Wei go to seize the treasure later?" Ling Ziwei asked curiously.

"Exactly," Wei Zhong replied.

The treasure hunting that Ling Ziwei talks about is a special event every year when the tide rises. At that time, huge waves will roll up various treasures hidden in the river bottom.

These treasures are of various kinds, but most of them are rare items that are difficult to find in ordinary times. Among them is the Bailing Water Stone that Wei Zhong needs.

These treasures rolled out by the tide often cause many monks to snatch them, so they are called "treasure grabbing".

"With my Taoist friend's fortune as an alchemist, he still cares about the treasure rolled up by the tide. I am a little curious."

Wei Zhong answered truthfully: "I just need some Bailing Water Stones."

"Oh, no wonder. Although this thing has less uses, it is still a rare thing. It will be difficult for fellow Taoists to collect it in the market.

Nowadays, except for some families who still have hidden treasures, I am afraid that only when the tide rises will there be a large number of opportunities to obtain them. "

Ling Ziwei answered somewhat clearly.

"Family hidden goods? I wonder if Fairy Ling's family has something like this, and Pindao is willing to buy it at a high price?"

Wei Zhong asked somewhat eagerly.

‘Who knows whether I can successfully collect enough from the beginning of this tide? It would be better to get it from other channels. ’

Ling Ziwei scratched her head in embarrassment:

"Haha, I don't care much about the affairs of the family. After this viewing is over, I will immediately return to the family to inquire about fellow Taoists."

"Then I'll trouble Fairy Ling," Wei Zhong said solemnly, cupping his hands.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

There were already monks shouting excitedly in the field. Wei Zhong looked down and saw a huge wave coming from a distance. As it moved forward, the back wave hit the front wave, pushing the front wave. A wave grew higher and higher.

At this moment, the sun has completely set, and there is only thin moonlight everywhere, and all kinds of spiritual objects carried in the tide suddenly emit bright starlight.

Wei Zhong greeted the two girls, stepped into the air, and fled towards the tide.

Looking at Wei Zhong's escape technique, Ling Ziwei said with some admiration:

"I don't know what the name of Fellow Daoist Wei's escape technique is, but it has such terrifying escape speed and ability to gather breath. This kind of escape technique must be a good hand for exploring secret realms. Unfortunately, Fellow Daoist Wei is cautious by nature and seldom takes risky actions."

Xie Linghua nodded with deep approval. As Wei Zhong's personal maid, she also understood Wei Zhong's stability very well.

But what the two women didn't know was that Wei Zhong had been using another vest in the past few years to visit most of the secret places in Luohe Mansion, but they didn't know it.

Wei Zhong stepped lightly and was getting closer and closer to the wave along the river bank.

Feeling the surging water spiritual energy in the air, Wei Zhong's expression turned slightly solemn. The spiritual energy at this moment was too violent, which greatly affected the surrounding spiritual energy.

Wei Zhong saw several monks flying crookedly with flying swords, and almost fell into the cloud stream.

If you fall into the stream at this time, you will not be spared just because you are a monk.

The violent spiritual energy swept across the stream. Once the monk was involved in it, it would be difficult to perform spiritual magic and he could only drift along with the turbulent waves.

And it is very possible to fall into the dangerous undercurrent and die like a mortal drowning at the bottom of this cloud stream.

Over the past hundred years, many monks who overestimated their abilities have died in this way, and there are even foundation-building monks among them.

Wei Zhong stepped out towards Yunxi. It was only slightly bumpy, but he quickly stabilized after adapting.

The master-level Soaring Cloud Technique really did not disappoint Wei Zhong, and he should have no worries when walking through the waves.

The spiritual energy on both sides of the bank has the smallest fluctuations, and there are not many good things. It is the territory of the Qi Refining monks.

If you want things like Bailing Water Stone, you have to go to the middle of Yunxi River.
