Chapter 172 Jade Wutong

Chapter 173 Jade Wutong
At a stall in the center of the black market, several foundation-building cultivators with their faces concealed sat cross-legged in mid-air, emitting the magical fluctuations of the foundation-building realm without reservation.

Li Quanqing took a few looks and found that someone was actually selling a second-level magic weapon. He didn't know if it was a trophy.

Suddenly, Li Quanqing stopped in front of a stall and looked at the goods there.

There lay hundreds of centuries-old spiritual trees, shining with light and giving off a pleasant fragrance. There were even a few sections of second-grade wood among them, as if they had just been cut from the trees.

"Could this be... Jade Wutong?!"

Li Quanqing focused his eyes and suddenly found a piece of jade-green paulownia wood, slightly thicker than his wrist, with green and red patterns all over the cross section, like a burning flame.

The piece of wood simply lay there, and a burst of hot energy gushed out of it. The fire was pure, flawless, magnificent and vast.

"My dear, you have good eyesight. This is the second-level Jadeite Paulownia branch."

The stall owner was a monk in a green robe, with a layer of green light covering his face, and his voice sounded very old.

Li Quanqing glanced at him for a few times, and said with some doubt in his voice: "Isn't it said that Jadeite Wutong Wood is only produced by the Jadeite Wutong Sect? Why..."

"My dear, are you going to buy it or not?"

The green-robed foundation-building master immediately interrupted his words, with a hint of impatience in his voice, and a foundation-building pressure came towards him.

Li Quanqing, on the other hand, felt quite relieved and had some guesses.

He had vaguely heard before that the Jindan ancestor of the Biwu Sect had suffered serious injuries in the previous beast tide from the outer sea, and now everyone in the sect was in a panic.

Now it seems that this is not groundless.

"Don't be anxious, my friend. Don't be anxious, my friend!"

Li Quanqing laughed and also revealed a trace of foundation-building magic power, which calmed the other party's anger.

"So he is a fellow practitioner... humph!"

The green-robed monk snorted and spoke in a muffled voice, but his attitude was much more friendly.

Li Quanqing picked up the jade paulownia wood and looked at it carefully. This second-level fire-attributed spiritual wood was just right for refining the Flame Dragon Formation.

"My fellow Daoist, I need a total of nine second-level paulownia woods, plus seventy-two first-level jade paulownia woods. Do you have any in stock?"

Li Quanqing transmitted the message through his spiritual consciousness, with a hint of sincerity.

"so much?"

The other party was obviously also stunned, with a slight tremor in his consciousness, and he couldn't believe it.

After some bargaining, Li Quanqing and the other party agreed to deliver the goods at the next black market.

Although he failed to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill, he had resolved a worry, so Li Quanqing was naturally in a good mood.

"The only thing missing now is the second-level fire silk."

He toured the entire black market, and after making sure that nothing was missed, he came to an ice cave.

It was quite lively here with people coming and going, but only two monks wrapped in black robes were busy.

The caves around were filled with jade tablets with various information, all of which were for seeking various treasures. There were dozens of them.

Obviously, this is a place controlled by the black market officials.

After spending more than a hundred spirit stones, Li Quanqing also hung a jade token on himself, asking to buy second-level fire-attributed silk or spirit silk.

After doing all this, he was immediately satisfied and left the black market directly.

The speed of the light he controlled was extremely slow, which was about the same as that of a normal Qi-refining cultivator.

After flying for forty or fifty miles and finding that there was indeed no robbery cultivator following him, Li Quanqing suddenly burst into laughter.

It seems that he won't be able to earn any extra money tonight.

After deliberately taking a long detour, Li Quanqing finally returned to Hanchi Fairy City.

……

Half a month later, the jadeite sycamore wood he purchased was delivered on time, the money and goods were settled, and both parties were satisfied.

Li Quanqing was basically certain that the other party was the foundation-building cultivator of the Biwu Sect, but unfortunately, he didn't seem to be living a very good life.

This made him feel slightly relieved. The Biwu Sect and the Shuihua Sword Sect were not far away from each other, and now these Jindan sects were showing signs of fatigue.

On the contrary, it is a good opportunity for the Qingyu Li family to develop rapidly.

He waited for another month, but unfortunately there was still no news about the fire silk.

After all, fire-attributed spiritual materials have always been rare, and they are not treasured in any of the major shops or on the black market.

Just when he was about to return to his family, Taoist Sanxiao came to his door.

"You mean, do you know where to buy second-level fire silk?"

Li Quanqing looked at the Qi-refining cultivator who came to visit him with a slightly stunned look.

Ever since they parted at the teahouse that day and received information from Master Huang Li, he has never seen the other person again.

"exactly."

Taoist Sanxiao smiled respectfully: "During this period, I often heard people say that Senior Chilongzi was devoted to obtaining fire silk, so I kept an eye on him. Now there are finally some signs."

Upon hearing this, Li Quanqing nodded immediately.

He did not conceal his identity when he visited various stores, so it was not surprising that the news spread.

"Tell me in detail about this person's information."

Taoist Sanxiao walked into the cave flattered, holding a cup of spiritual tea, and did not dare to neglect: "The senior is called Xuanyuanzi, he is a well-known good man in the fairy city, he has many friends, and he is very good at deduction..."

Li Quanqing nodded from time to time as he listened. He really sounded like a virtuous monk with a good reputation that spread far and wide.

After finding out the residence of Xuan Yuanzi, he went to visit him that night and was respectfully welcomed into the cave by the doorman.

"This must be the Daoist friend Chi Longzi who recently arrived in the Immortal City. It is true that hearing about him is worse than meeting him in person!"

Xuan Yuanzi is a very kind old man with three long beards and gray hair, looking like an immortal.

"I am sorry to bother you so much for visiting me this time."

Li Quanqing bowed slightly, sat down, and asked directly: "I heard that you have a ball of second-level fire silkworm silk here, I wonder if it is true or not?"

Xuan Yuanzi laughed: "There is indeed a ball of golden silk, which is my personal collection. I treasure it very much!" "I urgently need this silk to refine magic weapons. I need a lot. I wonder if you can give it up. I am willing to exchange it for the treasure!"

Li Quanqing's words were quite sincere.

Xuan Yuanzi pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Fire silk is rare and precious, but I see that you are sincere, so how about this, I will use this silk in exchange for your help once?"

Li Quanqing frowned slightly, a little puzzled: "What do you mean?"

"I have recently obtained a treasure map of the ruins of an ancient cave, and have invited fellow practitioners to explore together. We may even find clues to the golden elixir spiritual object..."

Xuan Yuanzi spoke his demands slowly and finally revealed his true intentions.

Li Quanqing: "Goodbye!"

Without waiting for the old man to finish speaking, he simply waved his sleeves and left, completely ignoring his attempts to keep him.

Until I walked out of the cave and looked at the hustle and bustle of the street.

Only then did Li Quanqing fully react.

He was tricked!
Maybe this group of people were behind the deliberate visit by Taoist Sanxiao.

"Since I am a cultivator who has just arrived in the Immortal City and my foundation is not stable, you are targeting me and planning a plot against me?"

"dream!"

Li Quanqing smiled coldly, although he was confident that he was strong enough and had many cards up his sleeve.

But he wouldn't be so crazy as to put himself in danger for the sake of a second-level formation.

As for the possibility that the treasure map is real, only a fool would believe that others are truly kind!

"It turns out that the city has many tricks..."

"It is better to go home, it is better to go home!"

Li Quanqing looked at this vast fairy city. He had been away for two months and suddenly felt a little homesick.

That night, as the night deepened, dark clouds gathered and the stars disappeared.

He quietly left Hanchi Fairy City without any reluctance and flew straight towards the Shuihua Sea.

……

Li Quanqing rode on the Red Dragon Puppet and flew seven or eight hundred miles in one breath, only then did he feel slightly relieved.

"It's still not safe enough. Let's fly forward a little further and use water escape technique to completely cover up all the aura."

He looked up at the falling snowflakes and the howling wind and snow. The sea area here was still under the control of Hanchi Immortal City.

The Red Dragon Puppet inhaled and exhaled spiritual energy, its body was surrounded by flames, and the wind was whistling. Its speed was extremely fast, comparable to a second-level demon bird flying across the sky.

During this period, Li Quanqing also exchanged all the unused low-grade spirit stones on him for medium-grade spirit stones through the official channels of the Immortal City.

One hundred and ten low-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for one medium-grade spirit stone. The exchange rate is a bit deceptive.

Fortunately, there is no limit on the amount of spirit stones that can be exchanged.

Li Quanqing now has more than 260 mid-grade spirit stones, which are enough for the Red Dragon Puppet to fight for several days and nights, and he is full of confidence.

Just as he was about to break through the range of the wind and snow, a deafening sound suddenly came from behind him.

Immediately afterwards, a powerful wave of magical power burst out, the light illuminated the darkness, swept across the sky, and flew quickly towards him.

"I knew it was going to be bad!"

Li Quanqing thought viciously, and controlled the Red Dragon Puppet to fly forward suddenly, straight out of the wind and snow, and returned to the normal unowned sea area.

"Fellow Daoist, save me, save me!"

A cry for help came from behind me, and it sounded vaguely familiar.

Li Quanqing looked back and found that it was actually Mu Dao Ren.

At this time, he was riding a green beam of light and was chased by two foundation-building monks wrapped in black robes. He jumped around in a panic, screaming continuously, and looked extremely embarrassed.

"Join hands to set up a plan?"

A certain guess arose in Li Quanqing's mind, and he dared not stay any longer. He rode on the red dragon and quickly fled from here.

"Daoyou, you can't just stand by and watch someone die!"

Mu Dao Ren let out a strange cry and his speed suddenly increased greatly. He approached quickly and rushed straight towards him.

"roll!!"

Li Quanqing roared in anger, raised his hand and slashed out a sword energy that reached the sky, majestic and huge, with raging fire!

The sword energy swept across, enveloping the three foundation-building monks at the same time, and the flames lit up the night sky.

"Fellow Daoist, are you planning to kill us all?"

Taoist Mu's face slightly changed color, and he suddenly jumped back, using two Foundation Establishment cultivators to block the sword.

The red flames faded, revealing the disheveled figures of the two men, with torn robes, sword marks all over their bodies, and even scales growing all over their bodies.

"...Half-demon?"

Li Quanqing frowned slightly, looking at the demonic energy surging from their bodies, and was suddenly speechless.

“Oh wow, it turns out you’re the half-human, half-demon monsters. No wonder you’ve targeted me!”

Taoist Mu was still jumping up and down, shouting loudly: "My fellow Taoist, let's quickly join forces to fight the enemy, slay the demons and defend the Dao!"

Li Quanqing observed carefully and found that this person was indeed not in the same group as the half-demon.

But he didn't want to get involved in this mess, so he just walked away.

Taoist Mu suddenly took out a bead from his storage bag, which turned into an ochre-colored rope that spanned several miles in the blink of an eye and wrapped around the tail of the Red Dragon Puppet.

A burst of earth energy suddenly burst out, making the man and the puppet feel like they were stuck in a quagmire, and their speed immediately slowed down.

"I'm so sorry!!"

When Li Quanqing saw this, his face turned green immediately.

This old Deng is so shameless!
