Chapter 160: Internal Growth
Chapter 160: Internal Growth (Part )
After destroying the letter, Duanmu Sheng's eyes became gloomy.
There are three camps in the Divine Guard Army. Camp A is the oldest and is spread across various sects and families. Camp C has a mixed crew of both good and bad people.
The Yi Camp is the direct line of the Valley Master, so he is naturally the most direct line of the direct line. In previous years, he had a good relationship with Shi Hong, and he took good care of him and made friends with him.
But that was only because he was the young master of the valley, and now...
"The importance of the Divine Craftsman, it is impossible for the Valley Master to turn a blind eye to it, right?"
Duanmu Sheng talked to himself and looked through the files again. At the moment, he had no intention of paying attention to these things and even felt that Shi Hong was quite ignorant of the overall situation.
With Qianjun Cave not yet destroyed and Sanyuanwu and Liexue Mountain eyeing them covetously, they are still thinking about fighting for power.
"Master Sanyuanwu, Wanya..."
……
……
Call ~
At dawn, the cold pond is covered with ripples.
After the New Year, the cold air gradually faded away, but there were very few boats traveling on the cold pond, only a few ferrymen coming and going.
Li Yuan was sitting on a black-sailed boat, fishing. There were already a few small fish in the fish basket beside him.
"It's impossible to fish."
After swinging the fishing rod and catching a small fish, Li Yuan shook his head inwardly.
Ever since the news of the Sanyuanwu army's march came, the Weapon Casting Valley became busy, but most of the work was forging ordinary sharp blades. After Li Yuan completed his share, he would also take time to come to the Cold Pond to fish.
how...
"What kind of bait did Shui use?"
Li Yuan felt a little curious when he glanced at Liang A Shui who was also fishing on a boat not far away.
Not counting the one that Ding Zhi had left behind, he spent another 600 taels of gold to buy two more red dragon fish from Liang Ashui.
"Unfortunately, those two red dragon fish are a little small and can't hit the famous weapon..."
Li Yuan was counting.
He now has five pieces of red dragon fish leather armor and a pair of red dragon fish leather gloves, but only two of them are level four, and the rest are level three.
After the blessing, he broke into the hundred-foot turning point of the Chirong Cave, but unfortunately, he still could not go any further.
"never mind."
After fishing for a while without any results, Li Yuan put away his fishing rod, said hello to Liang A Shui, and prepared to return to the island.
At this moment, he heard someone shouting from a distance.
On a small boat, Liu Zheng waved his hand: "Senior Brother Li!"
"came back?"
Li Yuan's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly drove the boat to meet them. He saw that there were more than ten small incense burners on the boat where Liu Zheng was.
At a glance, white and blue light intertwined, and in addition, there was another one emitting a green light.
A third-order incense burner.
"Fortunately, I live up to my fate!"
Liu Zheng grinned, moved the incense burner to the boat where Li Yuan was, and talked about his trip down the mountain.
"Those big incense burners have been passed down for hundreds of years, and no temple keeper is willing to sell them. But there are a lot of these small ones. Junior Sister Wang still has more than a dozen, and they will be delivered later."
Liu Zheng pulled out a pair of boots from the cabin:
"These were collected by the shop owner during this period. Unfortunately, the quality is very average."
“Good boots are hard to find.”
Li Yuan took the boots.
There are six pairs in total, all of which are first-level, and the control effects are all very average, such as "walking as fast as the wind" and "walking on flat ground".
But he was already very satisfied. Combined with what he had saved before, it would not be a problem to buy two pairs of third-level boots.
The war is about to begin, and he is also making preparations. In addition to inner armor, boots are naturally the top priority, even more important than inner armor.
Except for those warriors who are good at light skills, a pair of third-level boots, combined with his own speed, is no less than that of a Tongmai master.
If there were two more pairs, he estimated that even the great Tongmai master who was famous for his lightness skills would not be able to touch him.
"Keep collecting the boots, and you can also collect some hairpins, belts, and other things."
Li Yuan had already expanded the scope of items he purchased, but boots were ok, and belts, hairpins and the like were rarely available.
"Spiritual beast skins are so precious, which family would be reluctant to use them to make a belt?"
Liu Zheng smiled bitterly.
He had no idea why this man collected all these strange things, but he never asked.
Not long after they carried the incense burner back to the Hammer Soldiers Hall, Wang Peiyao also directed two errand disciples to carry the incense burner back.
"what?"
Li Yuanying walked a few meters away, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a strange light in front of him:
【Five-step snake skin belt (second level)】
[The skin of the five-step snake is soaked in special medicine for several years and then burned and tempered in a fierce fire...]
[Control conditions: snake waist]
[Control Effect: Level 3 (Dark Blue): Keen
Level 2 (Blue): Avoid all insects]
Second level belt.
Li Yuan stepped forward, took the incense burner that Wang Peiyao was carrying, and also took the snakeskin belt, his heart couldn't help but move slightly.
[Sharpness: The Five-Step Spiritual Snake has no eyes, but its perception is extremely sharp, and it has the ability to distinguish good from evil and danger.]
nice one!
After seeing off a few people, Li Yuan returned to the room and put all the incense burners into the gray stone table before playing with the belt.
"nice one."
Li Yuan played with it for a while and chose to take control.
hum!
In an instant, he felt a slight chill in his head, his spirit was shocked, and he felt as if his perception had risen to a higher level.
"This feeling..."
Li Yuan closed his eyes, stretched out five fingers and waved them in front of his eyes, and he could actually see the general outline!
"Squeak!" When Li Yuan was surprised, a scream suddenly came from under the bed. The little mouse in his sleep felt creepy and screamed.
"it's me!"
Li Yuan glared at it unhappily. The latter also opened its small green eyes, shocked and confused, and became more and more spiritual.
"Squeak?"
The little mouse's eyes were full of confusion and incomprehension. It sensed that there was clearly a giant python lurking in the house.
"Go have fun."
Li Yuan threw a low-quality blood-nourishing pill to it, and then stood up to try on the belt.
"When the light is bright, even with my eyes closed, I can still see within one or two meters. When the light is dim, I can still see within about one meter."
Li Yuan concluded that the control of this belt did greatly enhance his perception.
As for avoiding insects, it was just after the New Year and there was not a single insect inside or outside the house, so there was no way to try.
"If it can really keep away all kinds of insects, it will be very useful in the mountains."
After trying for a while, Li Yuan finally stopped, closed his eyes slightly, and entered the space of controlling the troops.
hum~
On the gray stone platform, various weapons and other items were placed, making it look a bit crowded.
When Li Yuan arrived here, he suddenly felt something was wrong. His heightened perception made him feel that the surroundings seemed to have become more dangerous.
It seems that once you fall off the stone platform, there will be no recovery.
"What exactly is outside the stone platform?"
Li Yuan looked around and felt darkness like a tide. After staring for a while, he felt creepy and almost had claustrophobia.
"Forget it. I can't fall anyway."
After looking for a while, Li Yuan withdrew his gaze and counted the small incense burners on the ground.
He has been collecting incense ever since the Divine Fire Hebing Furnace appeared, but the process has not been smooth. It's because all those temples are extremely wealthy and the temple keepers are rich.
These small incense burners are used by pilgrims for worship at home. They have to be passed down for at least three generations to be considered as not belonging to the upper class.
Those who were admitted to the rank were, without exception, all looted from large and small families in the city.
"Well, these incense sticks are enough to make more than sixty first-level weapons, thirteen second-level weapons, two third-level weapons, and no fourth-level weapons..."
Li Yuan was counting.
So far, he has never seen fourth-level incense. After all, the incense burner can only be regarded as a medium. The place where the incense really gathers is the statue of the god.
But the statues of gods are "replaced" every once in a while.
"I guess only the imperial court or the Evil God Cult has incense above the fourth level. Hmm, maybe the Star Picking Tower has it too?"
Li Yuan pondered for a while and lit the Divine Fire Furnace.
During this period, he put together a batch of second-level forging hammers, weapon hammers and the like. If there were enough incense, he estimated that he could put together at least four famous-level heavy hammers.
"boots."
Li Yuan did not hesitate and threw pairs of boots, along with gold and silver, into the furnace.
……
[Top-grade Nine-in-One Boots (Level 3)]
[Forged in the Divine Fire Furnace...]
[Control conditions: Achieve minor success in any Qinggong]
[Control Effect: Level 4 (Blue): Body like a swimming snake, steps like flying
Level 3 (dark blue): As fast as a kite, as easy as walking on flat ground.
After a long time, when the flames in the furnace dimmed, Li Yuan paid more than sixty taels of silver and combined two pairs of third-level boots.
Because he chose deliberately, the control effects of the two pairs of boots were almost the same, and the difference from the previous Liuhe boots was also very small.
This is to prepare for the subsequent synthesis of the fourth order.
"Okay, with these two pairs of boots, plus the Liuhe boots, I can run even faster."
Li Yuan was very satisfied.
During this period, every time he went out at night, he had to avoid Yu Jin and his three companions, relying on the top-quality Liuhe boots.
With these two pairs of Nine-Combination Boots, he even dared to venture into the Divine Weapon Valley and the Library.
I can't beat him, but I can run...
"How many people in Zhelong Mansion can outrun me now?"
Li Yuan felt a little more secure, and his eyes fell on the second-level heavy armor.
Heavy armor is as rare as boots. At the moment, he can't get too much, mainly because he doesn't have enough incense and can't put it together.
"Hammer, boots, inner armor, heavy armor, bow and arrow. If I can combine five sets of palm control, I won't be afraid even if Sanyuanwu attacks me on the mountain!"
Li Yuan counted the weapons and items on his body. Compared with when he just left Gaoliu County, there was a huge change.
Not to mention the first and second level ones, there are more than twenty third and fourth level weapons and items!
"call!"
After counting several times, Li Yuan waited until he calmed down before opening his eyes and closing the door.
Then he took out two Yuan-replenishing pills and swallowed them.
The reason he took a leave of absence from the Weapon Casting Valley today was not because he was lazy, but because his strength had reached the final stage.
Only then did he ask Lei Jingchuan for five days' leave, preparing to make a final push to achieve inner strength.
"The closer we get to the end, the more we must not be careless."
Li Yuan took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes, but the next moment he suddenly opened them again.
"this?"
He looked a little stunned and closed his eyes again. Only then was he sure that he could vaguely sense his internal organs.
"Five-Step Spirit Snake Belt!"
Li Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and he was pleasantly surprised: "Although it's blurry, the difference between being able to see and not being able to see is huge!"
Woohoo~
With the help of the belt, the final step of entering the body with strength is much simpler than before.
I don’t know how long it took, but when Li Yuan opened his eyes, he felt that his internal energy was flowing from the outside to the inside, interweaving into a network, and it was transparent as one.
Inner growth!
