Mortal Cultivation: Starting from a Casual Cultivator

As soon as he entered the water curtain, Wang Li's eyes lit up at the sight in front of him.

Although the waterfall is born naturally, it is also a clever trick. It turns out that behind the curtain of the waterfall is a small valley with singing birds and fragrant flowers, evergreen water and trees, and a lot of beauty.

It is full of vitality, full of rare and lively animals, such as kittens, puppies, and cute cubs of tigers, wolves, lions, and leopards, which can be seen everywhere and are extremely gentle; there are also magpies and orioles singing on the treetops, and butterflies and honey dancing among the flowers , and even more scenes of the little milk cat chasing and playing with the little butterfly.

"Master Li is really a wonderful person!"

This sudden complacency not only surprised him, but also made him feel physically and mentally at ease, and the tension in his heart was also reduced a lot.

"Oh? What's so wonderful? Why do you say that?"

Yu Kun asked with bright eyes.

"Master, isn't this just in line with the transcendent world of 'picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, and seeing Nanshan leisurely; the mountain air is beautiful every day and night, and the flying birds return with each other'? We monks should return to nature, cultivate our sentiments, and have This Yaxinger!"

Silently flattering someone.

"Oh, you're pretty good at talking. Others are just shocked when they enter this room. But you, you are so respectful of my wife's raising these small animals as treasures. You are completely different from those people."

Much more interesting than them.

Yu Kun didn't dare to say the latter sentence, but just kept it in his heart.

"By the way, be careful, don't hurt these little guys, my wife is very precious to them."

It's hard to imagine that a dignified foundation-building cultivator would point out a Qi refining period with a smile, and have such an easy-going side.

"Master? Another alchemy master? That's amazing."

Knowing that there was this person, and it was an important breakthrough for him this time, Wang Li still deliberately pretended not to know.

"Ahem, my mistress doesn't have alchemy. She is only at the middle stage of foundation establishment, but she has always had a good relationship with her master; she is also very kind and easy to get along with. If she knows that you admire her little fun so much, She will be very happy."

Wang Li bowed shyly when he heard the words.

This is the principle of curve saving the country. Unknowingly, he gained the favor of two important figures in Li Huayuan's sect.

After a while, the two stepped into the big cave on the side of the valley one by one. Then, in the hall inside the cave, I saw Li Huayuan, a middle-aged man in his fifties or sixties, but full of energy, with a rosy complexion, a pair of tiger eyes, and a beautiful young woman who looked about twenty-three years old. .

Girls match uncles, standard match!

"Disciple Wang Li, pay homage to Master."

"Well, get up; tell me, what do you want to do here? Brother Chen's letter of introduction is very difficult for ordinary people to get."

The old man is also straightforward.

"Master Patriarch, I want to ask for a superior exercise suitable for my practice, so I came here specially to see you."

Although the first six levels of the Qingyuan Sword Art can be exchanged in the Dianzang Pavilion in the door; but the seventh to ninth levels, as well as the follow-up secrets of the three-turn Chongyuan Gong, are very difficult to obtain. Especially the three-turn Chongyuan Gong, which is only buried here in Li Huayuan.

"Ask for exercises? Isn't Senior Brother Chen suitable for you?"

"Master Chen doesn't have what I want."

Wang Li didn't lie when he said this; what he said was that he didn't want anything, but he didn't say that it wasn't suitable. Therefore, even a cultivator of alchemy cannot pick out the thorn; even if it reaches the ears of Old Ancestor Chen in the future, it will not be a big problem.

"Then why do you think I have what you need here?"

Li Huayuan still thought about it more or less.

"I'm not sure that Master has what I want here, so, as a condition for borrowing, this Dingyan Pill is pressed here by Master. At that time, if Master has the exercises that disciples want, I hope Master Zurong, I took a copy and took it away. This extinct Dingyan Pill, which is priceless and has no market, is just a small favor from my disciple!

If not, the disciple will also use this experience of controlling beasts in the Spirit Beast Mountain as a thank you gift for viewing the master's collection! "

While speaking, he took out two extremely exquisite small wooden boxes from the storage bag, one contained a jade slip, and the other contained a pink-purple pill with a strange fragrance.

Clothes depend on people, and so do objects.

Eh? Didn't Wang Li come to apprentice?

How do you start a deal?

Appreciate teachers in different order.

If he apprenticed first, Wang Li would lose half of the bargaining chips out of thin air: because even if Li Huayuan took these two things, others would not be able to pick out half a thorn. Master's. Who will Wang Li seek to reason with? I'm afraid I can only suffer from being dumb.

Apprenticeship later, or not at all, and apprenticeship before and after foundation establishment, are all particular.

At least for now, let's try not to ask for a teacher first, to see if we can trade fairly, so that the benefits can be maximized, and the alchemy stage who wants face can have some scruples about his reputation.

If this path is blocked, it is not too late to ask the master to grant exercises.

"Ding Yan Pill?!"

Before Li Huayuan could speak, the young woman sitting beside him stood up excitedly.

"Yes, it is Qidan who can make people look eternal and youthful forever!"

Seeing this, the corners of Wang Li's mouth curved slightly imperceptibly: The second step of saving the country with curves is completed. What could be more lethal to low-level female cultivators than Dingyan Pill?

And as long as this person's interest is aroused, more than half of the golden page that records the full version of Qingyuan Sword Art will fall into Wang Li's hands.

Again, this woman is Li Huayuan's weakness.

"Experience in controlling beasts in Spirit Beast Mountain? Where did you come from?"

Li Huayuan frowned and asked.

"It is the result of this disciple's trial in the forbidden area."

Wang Li replied respectfully.

"Did you come out of the blood test alive, kid? I see. Time flies so fast. I still have some time to successfully refine that piece of iron essence." After muttering a few words, Li Huayuan's expression immediately changed. Just then, seeing the desire of the Taoist couple next to him for Dingyan Pill again, he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.

"Ma'am, you wait here for a while, I will go with this kid and come back."

"Okay, you have to satisfy Wang Xiaoyou."

The beauty has something to say.

"Don't worry, with your husband and my collection, can't it satisfy the needs of a disciple in the Qi refining period?"

After speaking, he stood up, and as far as his eyes could see, it was the library not far from the hall; then he pointed at Wang Li:

"You, come with me."

"yes."

Jin Ye, wait for me.

To achieve the goal so easily was somewhat beyond Wang Li's expectations. Originally, he had also prepared the third and fourth teacher apprentice ceremony, and planned to have another teacher apprentice ceremony when he stabilized Li Huayuan's charming and beautiful girl, which was a two-pronged approach.

No, I saved it.

"Boy, I haven't asked you yet, what's the matter with the spirit root?"

"Master Patriarch, this disciple is the three spiritual roots of wood, water and fire."

"Is it just an ordinary spiritual root? You can practice top-level exercises, but"

As the elder of Jie Dan, if Li Huayuan didn't come up with something, it would definitely be unreasonable. Of course, it is very difficult to ask him to take out a real item reward; it is only natural to mention a few words.

"Also ask the ancestor to explain the confusion!"

As a young cultivator, he should listen to the opinion of the monk who formed the alchemy in front of him.

"The exercises that we cultivators practice can be roughly divided into three categories according to their power and effect."

"First, it is an exercise with average speed of mana improvement, or even slow, (the typical representative is Dayan Jue); but this type of exercise comes with powerful and extraordinary magical means to defeat the enemy. Most of them are some knots. Favored by the hopeless friar of Dan."

"Secondly, it's just the opposite. It's quick to improve, easy to cultivate and easy to practice, and rarely encounters bottlenecks; and even if encountering bottlenecks, it is usually easier to overcome than ordinary monks. Many monks choose this relatively flat road. , because this kind of kung fu is the easiest way for low-level monks to get close to the alchemy stage. However, this kind of kung fu is often weak in supernatural powers and lacks self-protection means. Once you step on it, you are doomed to be weaker in the same level of cultivation in the future segment."

"The third is the top-level exercise that is highly sought after by many monks, but rarely circulated in the world of cultivating immortals. This method combines the strengths of the first two types of exercises. It is powerful and the speed of mana improvement is astonishing."

"Ahem, I don't know if Senior Brother Chen told you about this beforehand?"

tell shit.

Not to mention Old Ancestor Chen, Uncle Chen always hides from him.

The Chen family is either a bunch of narrow-minded people; or, these knowledge and information are not disclosed to the public casually. Obviously, most of them belong to the latter. Knowledge and intelligence are priceless and will not be easily imparted to outsiders. However, even if he failed to get material compensation from the Chen family, he could still take advantage of the Chen family's power to pull a banner as a tiger's skin and not be bullied by all parties.

Perhaps, those few also considered this point, so they chose this tacit understanding with Wang Li quietly.

Then again, Li Huayuan, who was labeled as "stingy" in the original book, is so generous today, which is commendable.

"Master, the top-level exercises can combine the strengths of the first two categories, so there are many harsh conditions, right?"

"That's right. Not only are there many restrictions and difficulties in practicing top-level exercises, but the cultivation process is also very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will fall into eternal doom."

This is by no means alarmist.

"Master Zu, let's read the exercises first, and then talk about it. The one that is most suitable for the disciple is the best."

"You are clever"

While speaking, he had already arrived at the library.

This is a flat and low ordinary stone room, and the whole stone room is protected by a layer of fiery red enchantment, and others cannot enter at all. Li Huayuan stretched out his right index finger and swiped on the light curtain, and the barrier immediately opened a gap about Zhang Xu wide. With a wave of his robe, a gust of wind was blown up, and the stone gate in front of him, which was stressed, immediately opened naturally.

As soon as he entered it, Wang Li was blinded.

There are all kinds of flashing jade slips, various books and classics, and many exquisite jade boxes. Some float, some are placed on a bookshelf, and some are stacked in a large tank.

There are more than fifty species.

These should be the cultivation methods that Li Huayuan has collected through various means over the years.

"Everything here has been restricted by me. If my wife and I didn't pick it up personally, it would trigger another formation in the stone room, and people would be trapped here to die."

Speaking lightly, all the suspended objects wrapped by the light curtain floated to a table on the side:

"You have two hours to look for it. If you haven't found it after the time, hum, I don't have time to stay here with you!"

"Thank you, master, for completeness."

Fortunately, there are only more than 50 kinds of exercises in total, of which there are about 24 or 5 that can improve their mana quickly, otherwise Wang Li would have a headache.

Just two hours is not enough to read more than fifty classics.

So, before searching, he solemnly rubbed his hands together, and then started with the ones in the box that improved relatively quickly. He did remember that the golden page that Old Devil Han found, the golden page that recorded the "Yuan Condensation Art", was buried among more than twenty items of this kind.

Of course, in order to prevent Li Huayuan from becoming suspicious, even if he finds the golden page, he cannot ask for it immediately.

In addition, you can't browse other items just by looking at them, you have to study them one by one carefully, analyze whether the exercises you read are suitable for you, and you have to do enough superficial skills.

Guiyuan Gong, Chihuo Gong, Illusory Spirit Art, Longevity Art, Condensing Water True Art

It only took half an hour, and he naturally found the golden page on which the "Condensing Yuan Gong" and "Spirit Gathering Art" were recorded!

But Wang Li remained steadfast and remained unmoved at all. After reading it once, he put it back in its original place and continued to choose other exercises. After more than an hour passed, when Li Huayuan was feeling a little impatient, he finally sighed:

"Master, is that all there is?"

There is no hint of disgust on the surface, but it is full of meaning between the lines.

"Nothing that satisfies you?"

More than 20 kinds of exercises in the second category have been searched, and this is the result?

This is not possible, whether it is Dingyan Pill, or the beast-controlling experience of the monk who formed the alchemy of Spirit Beast Mountain, he must stay.

Wang Li got up, shook his head, and was about to go outside the library, but he seemed to think of something, and suddenly there was another pause, and he turned around and picked up the small box containing the gold pages:

"That's it."

A forced smile.

"Eh? This kid is quite up to the mark. Wait, what is recorded on the golden page? Oh, by the way, it seems to be the unrecognizable waste technique of Ningyuan Gong. This wave is not bad."

Thinking so in his heart, his face was full of satisfaction after the fair trade. At the same time, Li Huayuan threw out three middle-grade spirit stones to Wang Li:

"Hey, I don't take advantage of you either. Boy, practice hard in the future and strive to build a foundation as soon as possible. I am optimistic about you."

"Thank you, Master, for your generosity."

This time, Wang Li laughed sincerely. And since this person has achieved this step, he, Mr. Wang, cannot be completely a villain:

"Master Zu will lead the team for the next trial in the forbidden area?"

"Why are you asking about this?"

Li Huayuan frowned.

"Master Ancestor, this is what the disciple snatched from this forbidden area trial. Ah, no, it is the maps of the various sects collected! And I also found several elixir production areas that are guarded by powerful top-level monsters. It is on the maps of the cultivators of each sect. If there is no record, please ask the ancestors to read it."

The special marked place is exactly where a large number of elites on the thirteenth floor of Qi Refining stumbled.

But at the same time, there are rare fairy grasses that are rarely seen in the outside world.

Ordinary spiritual grass, Li Huayuan, who is at the alchemy stage, will not be moved, but...

"Jing Nielian? Fenglei Xing?"

Huo Ran got up, his expression suddenly changed.

"Are you sure that the information you provided is not fake?"

His eyes wished he could eat Wang Li.

"Give the disciple a hundred courage, the disciple will not dare?"

It was him who did not dare to provoke them easily at the time. But if he goes in again next time, he will naturally not pay attention to some monsters with greatly increased means. Moreover, these two kinds of "wild" elixir are grown elsewhere in the core area; giving some to Li Huayuan can be regarded as a taste of the invisible "Golden Page Grace", which is not bad at all.

"Okay!"

The excitement in my heart is all reflected in these three good words.

Then he thought of something again, and asked softly:

"What spiritual herbs did you bring out this time?"

"It's nothing too good, just a few spiritual herbs that have miraculous effects on the middle and late stages of foundation establishment, and an 800-year-old Zitang fairy."

"hiss"

Chen Laogui, who intercepted his escort mission this time, got a big deal!

hateful.

And this hand, cheap and cheap, what kind of iron essence is refined!

Little is too much!

"Boy, you didn't hand over this information to the sect? You know, at least one hundred spirit stones can be exchanged."

"I just think, master, you need it more; or, if the disciple fails to build the foundation this time, if he goes to the forbidden area next time, maybe he can bring out those elixir? At that time, I have to ask the master to take care of it." two."

care?

You want me to accept you as a disciple.

However, if you can really bring out these fairy grasses, it's just a disciple.

"I don't want the second brother and sister of Danqi to know this news, do you understand what I mean?"

"Even if the disciple succeeds in building the foundation, he will rot it in his heart. Besides, master, according to the disciple's speculation, the forbidden area will have to be closed for a long time after only two times."

Um?

Li Huayuan was not stupid, he raised his eyelids and realized the meaning behind the words.

"Indeed, there are fewer and fewer mature spiritual grasses produced inside, and it needs to be cultivated for a while."

How could he, who has led a team more than a dozen times, not know what this means?

It seems that we have to prepare early.

"Boy, are you willing to be my registered disciple?"

After thinking for a while, Li Huayuan asked with a smile.

"Disciple Wang Li, pay my respects to my mentor."

Sure enough, if you present this map, there is a high probability that you will be given high hopes; but in order to go to the forbidden area again, he must worship the master in front of him!

"It seems that you are mentally prepared?"

"The disciples are here for this!"

Li Huayuan: "."

What a traitor, dare to plot as a teacher? !

Wang Li provided Li Huayuan with an improved map of the forbidden area. What exactly does he want?

First, he can remember the boring loss that Fuyunzi made him suffer! What if the old guy who didn't cheat went bankrupt?

If this "calculation with mind and no intention" can still lose, this cheap teacher at home is really a fool who can't afford it.

Second, if the plot doesn't change too much, ten years later, the fake baby monster Qiong who covered up the Yuezong will take out his three "invisible needle" talismans as chips to moles Lao Litou and Fu Yunzi; Wang Li was about to intervene. That level of talisman is a huge threat to the middle and late stages of alchemy, and can even kill one or two alchemy stagers.

A must-have for traveling!

It can be regarded as preparation in advance for the trip to Chaotic Star Sea!

Third, since the forbidden area is going to be closed for 60 years, if you want to gamble, you can gamble big. It would be interesting to bring together a few alchemy leaders led by the Qi faction. The treasure in Jiedanqi's hands must be more powerful than ninety-nine percent of the goods that appear in the market.

At that time, it would be good for Lao Li to stand in front and take the big head, and he would shrink back and drink some soup.

So, from now on, the alchemy period of each faction leading the team to participate in the Bloody Trial is within Wang Li's calculations? !

Roughly the same.

Sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, if you don't even dare to calculate the alchemy period, how is it different from a salted fish?
