Chapter 14 Xu Lao
Yuelu Hall, where Huangfeng Valley's magic tools and formulas for refining elixir, books, and related secret arts are specially collected.
And also provide a variety of alchemy, refining tools and some commonly used raw materials.
As one of the important places of the sect, the defense here is very strong. It is rumored that there are monks who have formed an alchemy to sit in the town, but it is not known whether it is true or not.
If you don't have the foundation-building stage level, you must have a monk with a foundation-building stage or above as a guarantee to enter.
For Wang Li, he took the time to go to Uncle Chen to get the guarantor's token a long time ago, so if he wanted to go in and out of this place, he would not be troubled normally.
Right now, just as he was approaching this place and was about to step in, a light curtain suddenly appeared and blocked him. Behind the light curtain, there were two other people in red whose cultivation level he couldn't see through.
Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Li respectfully presented the token.
"Oh? Brother Chen is your guarantor?"
Across a light curtain, the two asked formulaically.
Eh? Brother Chen?
Hearing this title, Wang Li's heart trembled immediately: These two gatekeepers are from the Foundation Establishment Period?
In this regard, how dare he neglect:
"Exactly."
Just kidding, one mistake made these two uncles and uncles unhappy, and it would be unfair to label him a spy and then throw him off with a small fireball.
"Are you a child of the Chen family? That's not right, aren't the children of the Chen family all guarded by the head of the Chen family? Kid, you can't be the direct disciple or illegitimate child of Brother Chen, right?"
A direct disciple can understand, but what the hell is an illegitimate child?
"My two uncles, Uncle Chen is my guide, and my disciples are taken care of by him."
He hurriedly answered respectfully to show his respect.
"Ha! Is it just your guide? Well, come in."
After seeing the two nodding their heads, they shot out a spell and landed on the light curtain in front of them at the same time, causing the restraining light curtain to tremble for a while, and then quickly split open a gap that just accommodated one person to pass through.
The size of the crack is definitely not one foot wide.
This temporary passage is mostly determined according to the physique of the person coming.
"Thank you two uncles."
"Well, take this jade talisman of Senior Brother Chen well. Every time you come here, you still have to check it routinely. That's the rule here."
"It should be."
He was respectful and polite from the beginning to the end, and tried his best to leave a good impression on these two. Maybe they will be regular customers in the future, and they will see each other when they look up.
"follow me."
Although they asked him to keep up, he was subconsciously half a step behind.
Although he didn't know whether the world would be prosperous or not, Wang Li instinctively followed suit.
After all, no matter where you are, try to lower your position as much as possible to show respect for the other party, and you can gain some goodwill more or less. When the other party is comfortable, it will be much easier for him.
"By the way, Nephew Wang, have you brought enough spirit stones?"
While walking, one of them suddenly asked.
What do you mean?
This is to kill and seize treasure?
Hey, hey, can't it?
"Two uncles, to tell you the truth, after meeting the needs of daily cultivation such as talismans and pills, my nephew has saved a few spirit stones in the past few months."
Although he is relatively rich in the foundation building period, there is a limit to how rich he is. Anyway, it is right for him to cry about being poor here.
"Huh, why are you running here without spirit stones? You know, to enter the real Yuelu Hall, you need to use an additional teleportation array, and the opening of the teleportation array requires the consumption of spirit stones. According to the rules, you have to pay a fee first." Only one Lingshi, the two of us will send you into the inner core area."
Good guy, did you purposely set up a teleportation array and collect tickets? Or is this place really important?
"Hey Lao Xia, forget it, Mr. Wang is here for the first time today, so let's excuse him this time."
One sang the red face first, and the other sang the bad face.
Wonderful.
That first impression was... solid.
"Thank you two uncles! Thank you two uncles!"
Wang Li resolutely looked like a happy philistine who had never seen anything big in the world and took advantage of a small advantage.
"Nephew Wang, there is no need to do this..."
They said so on the lips, but the subtle expression changes between their brows revealed their own pride and satisfaction:
"Oh, this is just a little thought of us as elders, you don't have to keep it in your heart."
I believe you ghost!
It doesn't matter whether the two responded because of his previous obedience, or they were showing their favor to Master Chen indirectly, or it was a small investment that gave them some kindness and good fortune.
At least, the initial perception of each other is not bad, isn't it?
"Go."
While speaking, the brilliance of several spirit stones inlaid on the magic circle flashed, and Wang Li felt his world spinning for a while, and the surrounding scenery blurred quickly and then became clear again.
When he came back to his senses, he had already appeared in an unfamiliar hall, and under his feet was a magic circle that was exactly the same as the previous teleportation circle.
"I'm careless, I actually forgot that there will be such a sense of discomfort when teleportation array teleports."
I secretly woke up in my heart.
In addition, even short-distance teleportation feels uncomfortable, but what kind of time-space dislocation will super-long-distance teleportation feel?
It should be super strong, right?
"It seems that we need to pay more attention to this aspect in the future, otherwise, if we die in the transmission process, how wronged would it be?!"
The hall was empty at the moment.
Quite deserted, like a haunted house.
"That's right. During the Qi refining period, it is rare to be able to enter and leave this place freely. It is normal that there are not many talents. After all, the seniors in the foundation building period of the sect are not Chinese cabbages."
"Speaking of which, those who can survive this loneliness and sit here must be those with great perseverance. It is precisely because these seniors are willing to serve as the cornerstone that my Yellow Maple Valley can be passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years. Bar."
There are three passages connecting the hall, two of which are marked with "Qi" and "Dan" respectively. Wang Li glanced at it and walked directly into the one representing Dan.
After a dozen or so steps, at a turn, at the end of the road, a new house came into view.
At the door of the house, there was a table with an old man sitting on it.
And the old man was looking at him with a smile at the moment.
With a sweep of consciousness, you can't see through.
Understood, at least during the foundation period.
However, before the approaching Wang Li could make a sound, the old man smiled and said:
"You kid is interesting, dare to talk about the elders in the family, are you quite courageous?"
So, the previous words were heard.
"The younger generation has seen the uncle, looked at the uncle Haihan, and the nephew also felt that there are so many seniors in Huangfeng Valley who are silently giving in the corner, but are worthy of respect!"
A face of bitter gourd.
"Don't call me Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu, or Uncle Xu; heck, what do you really think I'm waiting for?"
The old man looked at Wang Li curiously.
"Master and nephew speak from the heart!"
I almost broke my heart and lungs.
"Not bad."
Why didn't I realize how great I was before?
"It's still you, kid, who understands our suffering. I haven't seen a living person for a long time, and when I see them, I'm tired of seeing dead faces. How can young people be sensible!"
While stroking his beard and admiring himself, he finally thought of Wang Li next to him:
"Tell me, what are you doing here?"
"Humber."
This title is closer:
"My nephew came here this time to find some formulas and classics related to pills, and to study the way of alchemy. With my nephew's aptitude, if I want to achieve greater achievements, I can only rely on foreign things. The way of alchemy is a way shortcut."
In fact, it is for the alchemy formula of the foundation building pill and the pill formula of the Dingyan pill, and by the way, see if you can get lucky and find some treasures.
"Huh? Alchemy recipes and books? You are not a child of the family!"
The old man narrowed his eyes.
The children of the family would never come to this ghostly place to find Dan Fang, because everyone knew what was going on inside.
However, it is not a child of the family, but he has the cultivation base of the eleventh level of Qi refining, and his bone age should not be very old; then it is either another adventure, or his cultivation talent is extraordinary. Obviously, those who are talented will only think about how to study the secret skills of exercises, and how can they have time to come here to learn the way of alchemy.
Have an adventure? Or was it a one-time adventure that led to today?
"Uncle Xu, nephew would like to have a family to take care of him, but unfortunately the family has declined. The old man closed his eyes and left a piece of immortality token and some odds and ends, which are only enough for nephew to cultivate to the point where nephew is now. Nephew is very grateful The shelter of the ancestors can make the nephew and nephew have the honor to visit the Yellow Maple Valley, but if the road ahead can only end here, they will not be reconciled no matter what."
Immortal order? Is that the brat who made a deal with the Chen family and sold the Jidan?
"Are you Jilingen?"
"Three Roots"
Smile shyly:
"It's really bad."
So that's the case, the family heritage + the resources obtained in exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill + the penance in the spiritual land? That's fine.
Wang Li didn't know it at all, he jumped repeatedly on a dangerous zero point, and almost turned into a minefield, which was much more fun.
"Okay, since you've already called me Uncle Xu, you have to express it now. Don't you want alchemy formulas and books? There are detailed records in this jade slip, read it here before going in."
The old man who took out the jade slip had a heartache look that Wang Li was very familiar with, as if he was gouging out his flesh and bleeding his blood.
And holding the hand of the jade slip, stretching and shrinking, it is much more profound than Wang Li's performance in the past, and the hesitation in his heart is vividly expressed, as if he will take back the original words and the jade slip in the next moment.
He's really a role model for me.
Thanks to Old Devil Han, it seems that the previous tactics have achieved phased success.
"Uncle Xu, you are indeed a practitioner in the dark! Please be respected by your nephew!"
After bowing and saluting, he quickly took the jade slip, for fear that the other party would really regret it.
Don't doubt this guy's integrity.
After sticking the jade slips on his forehead and carefully reading the contents with his spiritual sense, Wang Li's eyes gradually brightened.
In the library on the second floor, there really are pill recipes of Zhuji Dan and Dingyan Dan. It's a pity that apart from these two pill recipes, there are really no reliable pill recipes. By the way, he also saw the prescriptions of Jiuhua Yulu Pill, Tuomai Pill, and Quenxue Pill, three common holy medicines that he no longer needed.
"Have you finished reading it, can't you go up?"
This time, Mr. Xu really felt like he was bleeding profusely.
Those are a few spirit stones!
"Uncle Xu, why are there no good things here? Could it be that something was missing from the jade slip?"
"You suspect the old man?"
The corner of the old man's eyes twitched, and his pupils immediately became ill.
"No, no, I just want to ask you how to sell the things above!"
Um?
Are you ready to buy after seeing these junk?
The old man suddenly became suspicious again: "Make a copy, ten spirit stones, are you sure?"
"Buy it, just build the base pill formula and Dingyan pill formula."
Twenty spirit stones arrived in front of the old man respectfully.
really?
The Foundation Establishment Pill Formula can understand a thing or two, but what's the matter with wasting ten Lingshi to get that Dingyan Pill? Heart of beauty in everyone?
Not to mention, this little guy still looks pretty pleasing to the eye!
Well, he is generous and respectful enough for his old man, and understands that their job is not easy!
Just these points are better than ninety-nine percent of the stuff!
This child, I am afraid that there are not many left in the world of cultivating immortals.
"you are fine"
While the thought was at an anchor, the jade slip had been copied:
"Take it!"
"Uncle Xu, what is this?"
Because the jade slips in hand are not two, but three!
"There are so many pills, it records a top-quality pill that is suitable for the foundation-building period to break through the pill-forming period. It is an ancient prescription that is about to be lost. Only those forbidden areas may have the only remaining main ingredients.
Take it, when you succeed in building the foundation in the future, maybe you may be able to condense the golden elixir, and just in time find the immortal medicine of the three flavors that has disappeared for you? "
The old man didn't even believe what he said.
"Oh, those bastards who have been here are probably secretly calling me a profiteer, an old stubborn who fell into the debris of spirit stones!"
This self-deprecating smile made Wang Li sweat profusely; he shook his head bitterly, showing his old self.
Seeing someone is inexplicably worried.
In turn, it was even more inexplicable.
After subconsciously taking a deep breath, he bowed solemnly: "Uncle Xu, I don't want to say thank you for your kindness. My nephew will keep this friendship in my heart, and I will see it in the future."
"I don't have a few years to live in the late stage of foundation establishment. Can't you repay me? Go do your work."
There are only two possibilities for the foundation-building period to appear old. One is that it is a very old age when it breaks through, and the other is that it is really approaching the end of the foundation-building period.
The former is okay, not necessarily a person who is dying, and there is a possibility of a desperate fight; the latter, who is not a person with great luck, has a high probability of being out of luck.
"Nephew, take your leave."
There is no need to say too much about some things, as long as you know it in your heart.
After Wang Li left, the twilight on the old man's face disappeared immediately, and he put on a faint smug smile: "Little boy, act in front of me? You are still a little tender."
It can be said to be full of ambition.
But that's just the fun.
But one thing is not an act, but a fact, that is, his lifespan, for a monk in the Foundation Establishment period with a lifespan of more than two hundred years, it is really not much.
He is over a hundred and fifty years old.
Do you feel that there is no hope of alchemy in the later stage of foundation establishment at the age of one hundred and fifty? !
But he only broke through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment not long ago.
It is Han Laomo, at the age of 51 in the late stage of foundation establishment, under various circumstances with sufficient preparations, he did two exercises to strengthen his fundamental background, and he succeeded in condensing the golden core at the age of 126!
If it is said that building a foundation is one in ten, then forming a pill is one in a hundred!
With the aptitude of the old man surnamed Xu and his current background, it is obvious that Dan Jie is useless.
Even if there is Nascent Soul old monster to help him with all his strength, and all kinds of resources are poured on him, the probability of success is frighteningly low.
