Not long after, Qin Shaoyou and Bai Xiyao appeared at the place agreed with Yuan Tao.
These contribution points can not only be exchanged for various elixirs and spiritual materials in Mingli Hall, but can also be traded with each other. It is somewhat similar to spiritual stones, but can only be used within Yuanling Sect.
Yuan Tao had been waiting here for a long time. When he saw the two people arriving, he came up to them with a rosy face.
"Now we can make a fortune!"
"how many?"
"Excluding our respective costs, we earned a total of 1.6 million contribution points this time!"
"I've never seen so many!"
He shouted excitedly. If it weren't for the fear of being discovered by others, he would have wanted to shout a few times.
"One million and six hundred thousand?!"
Qin Shaoyou and Bai Xiyao couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
"Do you know how many cultivation resources these contribution points can exchange for?"
“I can’t wait to go to Mingli Hall!”
Yuan Tao put Yuan Lingyu into their respective hands. According to the previously agreed sharing regulations, Qin Shaoyou and Bai Xiyao each received 40%, which is 640,000, and Yuan Tao received 20%, 320,000.
Just when he couldn't wait to leave, Qin Shaoyou stopped him.
"Wu Feng from Mingli Hall is not a fool. If you exchange these many contribution points, can he not cause trouble for you?"
These words were like a bucket of ice water, instantly calming him down.
"Then...what should we do?"
The corners of his mouth twitched and he asked in a murmur.
Qin Shaoyou calmly took out a low-grade spiritual stone from his storage bag and tossed it a few times in his hand.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Qin, for reminding me!"
The clouds between his brows dispersed, Yuan Tao understood, cupped his hands and thanked him, then immediately turned around and left.
"Uncle Martial Master, as the elder in charge of Mingli Hall, has always been fair and impartial. Is this move inappropriate?"
Bai Xiyao did not approve of this move. On the contrary, she was worried that Yuan Tao would completely anger Wu Feng by doing this.
Qin Shaoyou chuckled meaningfully, turned around and looked into Bai Xiyao's eyes and replied:
"Why do you think he took such good care of me today?"
The breeze was blowing slowly, the clouds and mist were floating around them, Bai Xiyao was dancing in her light clothes, the two of them stood on the edge of the floating island, and fell into silence for a moment.
"you..."
"What are you staring at me for?"
Bai Xiyao's ears felt slightly hot and she turned around in a panic.
Qin Shaoyou scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed, and raised his hands to stretch.
He took a few steps forward and stood on the edge of the floating island. Under the floating island was the billowing sea of clouds in Tiannan.
"Senior Sister Bai, how is your... golden elixir repair going?"
he asked casually.
The fact that Bai Xiyao condensed fake elixirs was no secret in the entire Yuan Ling Sect, but because she was a disciple of the head Xiao Jian, no one dared to criticize her.
However, Qin Shaoyou still heard some rumors from some people's gossip.
It is rumored that Bai Xiyao is Xiao Jian's illegitimate daughter, whom he brought back from the mountain ten years ago.
At that time, she already had a fake elixir. Over the years, Xiao Jian has been looking for a way to repair the golden elixir for her, but it has never been very effective.
Xiao Jian may have blamed himself for bringing her back in the first place.
But no one dared to go to Xiao Jian to verify the truth of this matter, so all the rumors were just rumors.
"I... haven't..." Bai Xiyao's face suddenly darkened, "I still have something to do, so I'll go back first!"
Qin Shaoyou:...?
——
Time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, four years have passed since the last alchemy conference.
During the past four years, Qin Shaoyou has been practicing in seclusion on Kaiyang Island, living in solitary confinement. In fact, he is trying another bottleneck breakthrough method arranged by Kang Xingliu for him: blood food!
It is to swallow a large amount of monster flesh and blood to increase one's own vitality.
The reason why monks have a bottleneck in their cultivation is because their physical strength cannot keep up with the growth rate of their cultivation.
His body could not hold more spiritual power, which caused his cultivation to stagnate.
There is nothing special about the method of eating blood, just keep eating.
But just chewing is really boring.
Qin Shaoyou once again exerted his extraordinary "creativity" and never returned to the road of eating.
The Maoxuewang, charcoal-grilled demon pig, diced Kung Pao turkey, steamed Fei Lu fish, etc., made Kang Xingliu ravenous.
In the end, the master and apprentice often sat around a pot of food, eating and drinking, feeling very uncomfortable.
During this period, Qin Shaoyou spent almost half of his contribution points on exchanging monster flesh and blood. In the end, even the Ming Auditorium "had no time to supply", so this guy restrained himself.
Once upon a time, Wu Feng thought that this guy had given up practicing, but when he "accidentally" bumped into the master and apprentice having dinner several times, he couldn't help but sniff his nose.
Qin Shaoyou naturally smiled knowingly, and made several arrangements for him in private since then.
From then on, more and more tasks were issued in the Mingli Hall to "hunt monsters and bring back flesh and blood".
Taolin Yaju, in front of the house.
There are four magical instruments placed on the long desk.
Qin Shaoyou and Kang Xingliu sat opposite each other, their eyes focused on these four things.
"Your wind and thunder wings have been successfully smelted into the feathers of the golden crane. The quality of this object should not be lower than the seventh grade of Xuan level."
Kang Xingliu stroked his beard and smiled, nodded with satisfaction, and continued to look at the next item.
During this time, he asked Qin Shaoyou to re-refiner several of his magical weapons, not only so that he could calmly face battles in the future, but also to test his achievements in refining weapons in the past few years.
"Thanks to Master for his repeated teachings, otherwise the disciple would not have been able to successfully refine it in such a short period of time."
Re-refining a magic weapon is far more difficult for the weapon refiner than refining a new magic weapon.
Re-deconstruct the various raw materials that make up the original magic weapon, and then adjust the properties and proportions of the new materials according to the mutual restraint between them. If we expand here, I am afraid that even three days and three nights will not be exhaustive.
Fortunately, these wind and thunder wings were created by Qin Shaoyou from the beginning, so this step has already saved a lot of time.
"It's just a mysterious magic weapon, what's so good about it?"
Obviously Kang Xingliu didn't like his flattery, and the conversation turned serious again.
However, Qin Shaoyou knew that his master was a sharp-tongued person, and his original intention was to remind him to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and not to get carried away.
"Disciples, please remember Master's teachings!"
He replied with a snicker.
"Well...your...green scale shield..."
"Your aesthetic taste seems to be poor."
Kang Xingliu stared at the small cyan shield and shook his head with disgust.
The Green Scale Shield was originally the object of the Iron Heart Dragon. After the battle at the Xianmen Ruins, it fell into the hands of Qin Shaoyou. The latter took out the shell of the second-level monster Snapping Turtle that was also obtained there and sacrificed it into the shield.
middle.
However, after this sacrifice, this originally delicate shield turned into a simple and honest "breastplate".
To say that it is a breastplate is to give Qin Shaoyou face. To put it bluntly, if you wear this thing on your body, you will become a "turtle prime minister"...
"Master, my disciple originally wanted to sacrifice it and refine it into a pair of armor, just like the spiritual armor on the master's body. Who knew that this thing... it wouldn't obey!"
Kang Xingliu listened to his "justification", but he didn't mean to blame him.
This kind of magic weapon refined by others has no "upgradeability" and is not suitable for re-sacrifice. In addition, Qin Shaoyou's cultivation level has not yet reached the golden elixir realm, and he cannot rely on his own elixir fire to master the weapon refining.
The rhythm of this situation is also excusable.
"Do you still remember the weapon refining techniques taught to you by your master?"
"Disciple remember!"
"Come back and listen."
"The first move is to use the formation to control spirits..."
Qin Shaoyou recited it thoroughly, but Kang Xingliu was not satisfied.
"Recite it again."
"..."
"The first move is to use the formation to control spirits..."
Qin Shaoyou recited it several times in a row, but Kang Xingliu never stopped. He had no choice but to recite it over and over again until...
He suddenly stopped.
"this...."
He was surprised to find that the eighteen weapon refining techniques taught by Kang Xingliu did not exist in isolation from each other. When they were connected, they formed a circle that would never stop!
It's like running, after running for eighteen miles, you come back to the same place.
And within the circle of eighteen miles, he can go in any direction.
When he used to refining magic weapons, he only copied the formulas rigidly and could not flexibly apply them according to the actual situation.
"Do you understand it?"
Kang Xing showed a meaningful smile.
"Disciple is enlightened!"
Qin Shaoyou bowed and replied excitedly.
Next is the three-foot broken sword.
This sword was obtained by Qin Shao on Jianfeng Mountain when he traveled to the Foreign Sect's Immortal Promotion Conference.
This sword should be a fire-attribute magic weapon, and its grade is unknown. Qin Shaoyou has used it to defend against enemies several times. Although there are no obvious fluctuations in spiritual power, he has blocked several fierce attacks. It can be regarded as "hard work without credit".
"Yes.
Qin Shaoyou tried to refining the sword, but he was surprised to find that he could not deconstruct the sword at all, so it remained as it was.
When Kang Xingliu saw this sword, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly.
He slowly raised the sword and looked at the pattern on the hilt.
"Master, do you know the origin of this sword?"
"This sword... actually chose you..." Kang Xingliu murmured, and then looked at Qin Shaoyou again, "This sword is called Tianyao, and the one in your hand is just a scabbard.
"
"Its sword body has not yet been refined..."
Scabbard?!
Qin Shaoyou's eyes widened and his gaze unconsciously moved to the broken sword.
This thing doesn't look like a scabbard, does it?
"Master, you just said that its sword body has not been refined yet?"
"How did you know?"
"This sword comes from the Tang family in Leizhou. The person who refined it is my grandfather."
Kang Xingliu's words were shocking, and Qin Shaoyou once again looked at the sword in his hand in shock.
"It is said that ten thousand years ago, when the Immortal Gate of the Upper Realm was opened, five sacred objects appeared from the gate, one of which was a holy sword."
"The power of the holy sword can split mountains and open rivers with one sword, and it can also cut off the immortal road to the upper world. From then on, the immortal gate has been hidden, and no one can ascend anymore..."
"My grandfather wanted to reproduce the light of the Holy Sword. He consulted a large number of ancient books and visited countless historical sites. Based on these clues, he copied one, which is the Tianyao in my hand."
Speaking of the past, Kang Xingliu seemed to have a bright light in his eyes. He paused, turned around and put the sword back on the table.
"It's a pity that my grandfather failed to fulfill this long-cherished wish, and our Tang family was wiped out."
Kang Xingliu said these words lightly, but they caused huge waves in Qin Shaoyou's heart.
What kind of fairy sect, what upper realm, what kind of holy weapon? Even if he is an immortal cultivator, these stories sound more like myths at this moment.
The upper realm, what on earth is that place?
Immortal Gate, what kind of gate is it?
etc!
Fairy Gate?!
"If this sword is complete, its grade will not be lower than the ninth grade of the earth level, or it may be the heaven level."
"But no one except my grandfather knows how it was made, so you can keep this sword as a souvenir."
Kang Xingliu interrupted Qin Shaoyou's contemplation, and then grabbed the "Devil-Slaying Bow" again.
"Lin Jun's magical weapon was used to hunt down many people from the demon clan back then. If you can use it well, it should be enough for you to use before forming the elixir."
"By the way, didn't you refine a lot of explosive elixirs before?"
"I will teach you how to make divine wind arrows. You will tell me that the explosive elixir is embedded in the arrowhead, and paired with this demon-killing bow, it must be a great killing weapon for you!"
After Kang Xingliu said this, he waved his hand and made a point out of thin air, and a complicated spiritual pattern appeared on the long case out of thin air.
Seeing this scene, Qin Shaoyou's eyes widened, and all the immortal sects were immediately forgotten.
He stared blankly at the spirit pattern, which looked like the feathers of an arrow.
"After this arrow is shot, you can control its flight trajectory. Its speed is not as fast as the wind and thunder wings. If your cultivation is not at the Golden Core level, you will never be able to avoid its pursuit!"
Kang Xingliu is worthy of being a great monk in the Golden Core Realm. With such a casual move, Qin Shaoyou was enlightened.
"Master, what a wonderful idea!"
"Disciple, go prepare the materials now!"
At this moment, an urgent sound pierced the air came from a distance. Kang Xingliu's face changed slightly, and it seemed that someone was coming.
"Uncle Kang, can you come out and see me?"
The visitor, Li Changan, was suspended outside the Qinglin Heart Protection Formation, with an anxious look on his face.
"What's the matter?"
"The leader invites you!"
Kang Xingliu thought for a moment and said to Qin Shaoyou:
"You should continue to practice according to the method I just taught you, and the blood-eating method cannot be delayed."
"Disciple, obey!"
Then, Kang Xingliu left the formation and hurried away with Li Changan.
Qin Shaoyou frowned, and for some reason, he felt like a storm was coming.
