As the favorite disciple of Patriarch Tianyi, Su Qingyun reached the middle stage of the Golden Core decades ago. The impression given to other foundation-building monks may be that he is serious and cold, but in Xiao Lin's eyes,
But he is amiable and approachable.
After he became a disciple of Su Qingyun, this master not only taught him the superior techniques in the foundation-building period, but also went to seek advice whenever Xiao Lin had any problems in his cultivation whenever he was in Qing Ning Hall.
Su Qingyun would explain it to him carefully, which made Xiao Linshao take a lot of detours. The practice of self-cultivation is not just about practicing hard in seclusion. It also requires in-depth understanding and a thorough understanding of the mental formulas involved.
When practicing, there are also many things to pay attention to, such as when to keep the spiritual consciousness awake, and after what state to enter the state of concentration. These details are generally not explained in the cultivation methods.
At this time, the importance of a master is reflected. Having a good master can benefit a cultivator not only by avoiding a lot of detours, but also by avoiding the serious consequences of going too far.
As a cultivator attains a higher level of cultivation, the techniques he practices become more obscure and more difficult to comprehend. If one goes too far during the cultivation process, the consequences will be serious.
In mild cases, it will directly cause irreversible damage to one's internal organs and meridians; in severe cases, it may even trigger the fire of inner demons and burn the soul to death in an instant.
If a cultivator who is practicing hard is found one day sitting in a cave, lifeless, this is not a very unusual thing. It is very likely that he has become possessed during the process of cultivation.
The physical body is intact, but the soul has been completely destroyed.
Therefore, Xiao Lin was grateful to his master Su Qingyun from the bottom of his heart. Although he did not have a strong sense of belonging to Dancao Mountain, he had even thought about it several times. Once the ancient Xuanzong invaded the Tianlu Mountains, he would just pat his ass and leave. After all,
The world is vast and boundless, so where can I practice cultivation?
But Xiao Lin also knew very well that he had never thought of betraying Dancao Mountain. If he really left when the ancient Xuanzong invaded the Tianlu Mountains, then to Dancao Mountain, he would be a traitor.
Even if he really left, the so-called traitor would have no pain for him, but he would make his master Su Qingyun unable to hold his head high in Dancao Mountain from now on.
This was what Xiao Lin didn't want to see, and it was also the fundamental reason why he finally agreed to Ancestor Tianyi and follow Lin Xueying to complete the mission.
Now that he heard what Tao Ling said, Xiao Yi Shao actually died, and with him, there were nearly two hundred disciples of the inner sect and above in the foundation building stage, which really made Xiao Lin a little sad.
The voice and smile of Xiao Yishao seemed to echo in his mind again. This senior fellow who spoke freely and didn't have many palaces was often lazy and slippery in his practice, with a mentality of playing games with the world.
With such a mentality, he may not be able to enter the golden elixir stage in his lifetime, but living happily for more than two hundred years can be considered a perfection.
It's a pity that the weather is not beautiful. No matter what your cultivation level is, in the turmoil of the world of cultivation, you are still like the duckweed in the water. You don't know when, you may be swept away by the sudden huge waves.
"Not only that, in this battle at Xuelaoguan, we lost two Jindan ancestors in Dancao Mountain, but when they came back, one was dead and the other injured." Tao Ling sighed and continued.
Hearing this, Xiao Lin's expression changed, and he couldn't help but hurriedly asked: "Which two ancestors are these dead and injured?"
"Don't you know yet?" Tao Ling said with a different expression on his face when Xiao Lin asked.
An ominous premonition suddenly arose in Xiao Lin's heart. Tao Ling's words clearly meant something. Could he be his master?
"The golden elixir ancestor who died this time was Hua Luoyun, Master Hua, and the one who was injured was Junior Brother Xiao and your master, Master Su Qingyun."
"Master is injured, how is the injury?" Xiao Lin asked eagerly, but his hanging heart was relieved. This fallen Hua Luoyun was also one of the thirteen golden elixirs in Dancao Mountain, and he was also
The ancestor of the Hua family of the Xiuzhen family.
Once the ancestor of Jindan falls, it goes without saying that the various forces in Dancao Mountain will have to shuffle their cards again. The fall of the ancestor of the Hua family is doomed to the decline of the Hua family, a cultivation family that has stood in Dancao Mountain for hundreds of years.
.
Of course, Xiao Lin is more worried about his master Su Qingyun. The injury that can seriously injure the Golden Core cultivator is not an ordinary injury. After returning to the mountain, he has not yet paid homage to his master.
Now that he learned that his master was injured in the battle with Gu Xuanzong, he, as his disciple, should naturally go and visit him.
"It's just that I'm a little strange. Although Gu Xuanzong encountered tenacious resistance from our five major sects at Xuelao Pass, as time went by, Gu Xuanzong has gained the upper hand. There is basically no suspense about the defeat of Xuelao Pass.
thing."
"Once Gu Xuanzong invades the Tianlu Mountains, several fairy cities that are at odds with each other will inevitably be eradicated one by one. After all, Xuelao Pass, where the elites of the five major sects gathered, have been breached, and the remaining strength of the five major sects is no more than
It’s like a loose sand, and sooner or later it will be broken through one by one.”
"But ten days ago, Gu Xuanzong suddenly withdrew, and it seemed that he was in a hurry. Even the corpses of many disciples were burned on the spot, unlike before, they would be properly buried and brought back to the Southern Territory.
"
"Maybe something happened to the ancient Xuanzong?" Xiao Lin naturally knew the reason, but he had no intention of telling Tao Ling about his mission this time.
This mission was originally a top secret. The Dark Demon Sect must keep this secret when attacking the Ancient Xuan Sect. Otherwise, if it reaches the ears of Kumaru, Lushan Mountain will not face a strong enemy against the Ancient Xuan Sect that day.
If they really faced the two powerful enemies of the Ancient Xuan Sect and the Black Demon Sect at the same time, the five major sects in the Tianlu Mountains would only be easily crushed.
"It's possible. Fortunately, something happened to Gu Xuanzong. Otherwise, it's unknown whether our five major sects would exist now. And most likely, after junior brother returned to the sect, senior sister and I would have died in the battle." Tao Ling's words obviously meant something.
She was trying to test it out, but seeing that Xiao Lin's face showed nothing strange, it made her think that the inexplicable retreat of Gu Xuan Sect might not be related to the sect mission that Xiao Lin received.
"Okay, now that we've had tea and chatted, it's time for Junior Brother Xiao to reveal Senior Sister's real purpose here, right?" Tao Ling saw that Xiao Lin had been drinking tea for a long time, and didn't say the reason for coming. He looked like he was serious.
As if I came to see her to catch up on old times, I couldn't help but smile and ask directly.
"Uh." Xiao Lin was also thinking about how to speak. When he saw Tao Ling asking, he pondered for a moment and then said: "Junior brother came here because he really wants to trouble senior sister about something."
After a pause, he saw that Tao Ling was listening attentively, and then continued: "A few years ago, junior brother accidentally got a third-level ancient elixir recipe, but there are quite a lot of questions about some of the spiritual herbs and the refining methods.
I have a question, so Xiao Lin wants to ask Senior Sister to introduce Senior Uncle Wu Daozi to seek advice."
"Third-level ancient elixir recipe?" Hearing this, Tao Ling showed a surprised expression on her face. Even she had no chance to see the third-level elixir recipe. Unless one day her master Wu Daozi was in a good mood and had a whim, maybe he could make it.
She took a look at the legendary third-level elixir recipe.
But this probability is very small, and for Tao Ling, even if he can see the third-level elixir recipe, it will be of no use without the elixir that matches it.
Wu Daozi obviously knew this. For a long time, although he had asked Tao Ling to help refine a lot of second-level elixirs, he even gave Tao Ling part of the task of refining the foundation-building elixirs once every thirty years.
Only for refining the third-level elixir, she has never been asked to help. Instead, she hides in the cave at the top of Ziye Peak by herself, refining the elixir behind closed doors, and while she is refining the elixir, even the others
Several Jindan ancestors would come to the door, but they would block the door and not let them in.
It can be seen from this that this Wu Laodao is very precious to his alchemy skills. However, in today's world where third-level spiritual grass is increasingly scarce, it is rare for this Wu Laodao to open a furnace to refine elixirs.
After all, it is useless to have a good recipe but no ingredients.
But Wu Daozi is a great alchemist after all, and his net worth is still very rich. Moreover, if the other golden elixir ancestors in Dancao Mountain accidentally get a few third-level elixirs, they can only turn to this great alchemist to help refine them.
Cheng Ling Dan.
And the handling fees involved can make those Jindan ancestors feel pain for a long time every time.
Even some disciples in the foundation building stage, if they accidentally get lucky and pick a third-level elixir in the Tianlu Mountains, they will either sell it outside in exchange for a lot of spiritual stones, or they will ask Wu
Daozi, let him help refine the elixir.
For such a request, Wu Daozi would not refuse anyone who came, but he would take at least half of the refined elixir, and there was no guarantee of 100% success. If the refining failed, what would happen to this foundation-building disciple?
He said that he might lose all his money.
But whether it is Wu Daozi or the ancestor of the Wang family, their reputation in Dancao Mountain is still very good. For third-level elixirs, they will charge half of the finished elixir as a price, and they will never deliberately use the excuse of refining failure.
, to hack other people’s elixirs.
This is many times better than that of Elder Lan Xin, but the reason why they do this is not because they are pure-hearted, but because they want to improve their alchemy skills and cannot just rely on meditation and enlightenment.
It also requires a lot of practical alchemy experience. For them, the experience of alchemy is even more precious and cannot be bought with a lot of money. In this case, charging half of the finished elixir as a fee is already an excellent way to earn spiritual elixirs.
The stone was bought and sold.
In addition to Wu Daozi's interest in various rare elixirs, the other one is elixirs. In fact, there are not many third-level elixir recipes handed down in the entire Dancao Mountain, and most of the third-level elixir recipes handed down are
It was researched by some ancient cultivators.
Not to mention that today, many elixirs have become extinct. Even if there are still elixirs, I got one or two by chance and refined them without the ancient experience of practicing elixirs. These two elixirs probably don't even cost the tuition.
If you don't pay enough, it will be used up.
Therefore, whether it is Wu Daozi or the ancestor of the Wang family, most of the elixirs in his hands are based on some ancient prescriptions and have been improved to match the elixirs that still exist in the Tianlu Mountains today.
