Chapter 249: Qi Refining Technique Level 3
Chapter 249: The Third Level of Qi Refining (Additional chapter for Alliance Leader Pseudo-Christ A)
After discussing the next direction of improvement with me, Xiao Jie immediately went straight to the auction house and prepared to start improving his own configuration.
Attributes and the like take time to accumulate, but this agility skill can be acquired immediately.
Now that he has a stable income from monkey wine and secret dog food, he can earn a few taels of silver every day. He has accumulated more than thirty taels of silver in his bag.
But for his needs, it was still not enough. A few taels of silver could buy him a copy of an ordinary low-level skill, but the higher the skill, the price would often increase by several times or even ten times.
Fortunately, he still had a lot of rare materials collected from Konglao Mountain, which were worth some silver. He had not sold them before, and now Xiao Jie would not keep them. He checked the market price and sold them all in one go.
After some calculations, if I sold all of them, I would have no problem getting around 70 or 80 taels.
In this way, I can save up another 100 taels, and it shouldn't be a problem to acquire two advanced body skills.
As for attacking skills, he has no shortage of them - the Wolf King's Double Blade Kill is an advanced combat skill, plus several of his own ultimate moves, he can be said to be fully equipped.
Of course, improving attributes and learning skills are important, but the most important thing is to improve the level of Qi Refining. As long as you upgrade the Qi Refining to level ten and ascend to become a god, any skill attributes will not be a problem.
Looking at the Immortal Transformation Gourd, he found that the monster's inner elixir inside had been successfully refined. The gourd was full of spiritual energy, which was enough to upgrade to the third level of Qi Refining Technique.
Arriving at the martial arts gym and opening a quiet training room, Xiao Jie immediately began to absorb the skills.
Sit cross-legged, absorb spiritual energy, and use the magic weapon - the Immortal Gourd.
As the gourd slowly floated in the air, the spiritual energy in the gourd also floated out bit by bit, entering the body through the seven orifices, and Xiao Jie's heart also began to lift.
Watching the spiritual energy in the body slowly grow, after absorbing it for more than twenty minutes, finally -
[System prompt: Your ancient Qi training technique has been upgraded. You have successfully opened the third realm - Xuanmen Realm. Unlocked the legendary trait [Immune to all poisons].
[System prompt: Due to the talent 'Spiritual Enlightenment', your understanding has increased by 1 point. ]
[System prompt: Due to the talent 'Demon Spirit Manifestation', your spirituality has increased by 3 points, your agility has increased by 2 points, and your demonization index has increased. It is now 19%]

Trait 3: Immune to all poisons - Immune to all poisons, fearless, and all diseases and plagues will retreat. (Click to view the specific effect)
【Immune to Poison (Legendary Trait)
Passive Effect: You gain immunity to poison and disease (this effect is ineffective against legendary poison and disease).
Characteristics: According to legend, the ancient Qigong practitioners absorbed spiritual energy for a long time and refined their bodies. As a result, their physiques were completely sublimated and changed. They were able to purify and nourish themselves, so they were not harmed by diseases and toxins. They were not afraid even if they went deep into the land of severe miasma. They would not get sick or suffer from plague even if they lived for a hundred years. This is a spiritual creature created by heaven and earth. 】
Xiao Jie frowned slightly. He had to admit that this talent was very powerful. It was just a pity that it could not directly improve combat effectiveness, which was somewhat regrettable.
Fortunately, although it cannot directly improve combat effectiveness, it is a huge improvement to survivability. In the future, you can ignore attacks such as corpse poison.
Moreover, the impact in reality is even more far-reaching. I don’t have to worry about food poisoning, food additives, technology and hard work anymore. I won’t be afraid if there is another outbreak of COVID-19 or SARS next time.
In addition, my comprehension increased by 1 point, making it exactly 20 points. I won’t have to wear the old man’s hat anymore.
I feel so happy.
[System prompt: You are haunted by a demonic spirit...]
Again? With the experience from last time, Xiao Jie was familiar with the process this time and clicked the mouse to check.
[Haunted by a demon soul: A powerful demon soul is haunting you - every minute there is a certain probability of triggering the "manic" effect, indiscriminately attacking surrounding units. 】
Damn, this is not good!
Seeing the effect of the demon soul this time, Xiao Jie was suddenly shocked.
This is worse than the fear effect.
The fear effect is only dangerous during combat, but the mania effect is not so good. If you attack an NPC and are then beaten to death by the town guards, that would be too unfair.
Xiao Jie thought that this thing was not something to bet on, so it would be better to disperse it quickly.
He even didn't dare to leave the training room. If he triggered the situation as soon as he went out, it would be a disaster. The martial arts gym was full of combat NPCs, and he would be in trouble if a fight broke out.
Quickly quit the game.
After thinking that this matter could not be delayed, he hurriedly contacted Qianlong Wuyong.
Yin Yue Sui Feng: Brother Qian Long, can you help me contact a senior Taoist priest? I need to dispel a DEBUFF.
Qianlongwuyong: Okay, I’ll tell the president later. I have something else to do now and will contact you later.
Xiao Jie finally felt relieved and decided not to go online for the time being.
----------
"This operation was well done." Long Xing Tianxia said to Qian Long Wu Yong. "What are your plans for the Luoyang branch next?"
"We may conduct some reconnaissance activities on Black Wind Village next. If the conditions are right in the future, we will attack it, but..." "But what?"
"I want to go back to the main meeting." Qianlong Wuyong said suddenly.
Long Xingtianxia was a little surprised. "Why do you say that suddenly? Aren't you doing a good job leading the Luoyang branch?"
"Another person died today..." Qianlong Wuyong's tone was a little gloomy.
Long Xingtianxia was a little confused. "Were we playing games? How could there be no deaths? Didn't we die before?"
"No, this is different. Those who died in the past were because they disobeyed orders, disobeyed discipline, and acted on their own. They were courting death. I wouldn't feel anything no matter how many people like this died. But this one died today under my command. I feel that I owe him something."
Long Xingtianxia frowned. "Your idea is not right. You have been a soldier before. Do you have to be so cautious when fighting? In order to win, some people must sacrifice. As a soldier, you should understand this."
“But this is not a war…Looking at the dead people, I always feel that I am responsible for their deaths, which makes me uncomfortable.
Perhaps I am more suitable to be a soldier and participate in direct combat. Isn't the main force about to slay the dragon? I think that will require a large number of manpower, right? "
Long Xingtianxia sighed, he was very familiar with this mentality. Not everyone could ignore the sacrifices of their subordinates. War command was a skill that required extreme rationality. Once one fell into self-doubt or lost the perception of reality, it would not only be dangerous to oneself, but also a huge hidden danger to the entire team.
He couldn't refuse this.
"Well, if you insist, I will arrange someone to take over. Do you have a suitable candidate?"
"Little White Dragon - maybe."
"Hehe, he doesn't seem to be 20 yet? How can he be so young? Forget it, I'll ask him later. You continue to guide him for the next few days and think about it carefully. By the way, I heard that you got another professional item?"
"Yes, but it was photographed by the flat-headed brother. He said he wanted to leave it to his younger brother, and I have agreed."
"We generally don't encourage this kind of thing. After all, magic professions are strategic resources for the entire guild. However, legal principles are nothing more than human feelings. Forget it this time. As long as we make sure that Flathead Brother's brother will join us, that's enough.
Oh, by the way, here are two monster inner pills for Yin Yue Sui Feng to take away."
Qianlong Wuyong did not make a deal, "He refused the offer."
"Hmph, you have quite a bad temper. Never mind. A forced melon is not sweet. Being a mercenary is also considered a friendly force."
"What about the inner elixir?"
"Don't give it to him yet. Wait until he shows more value."
"He also said that he needed a senior Taoist priest to help him remove a DEBUFF, which might have been caused when he fought the wolf monster during the day."
"This can be arranged. Please tell the vice president later..."
------
Xiao Jie didn't know when Qianlong Wuyong and Long Xingtianxia would arrange for a senior Taoist priest to exorcise evil spirits for him.
But I guess I can't wait until today. In that case, let's solve the real problem first.
The influence of this monster's inner elixir is not only in the game, one also needs to be careful in reality. Although the haunting of this monster's soul will not affect reality, the influence of the monster's residual spirit on the mind is inevitable. The last time he lost his mind and almost ate people, Xiao Jie is still scared.
This time, of course, we have to prepare in advance.
In order to avoid having to bother two people with the same matter, Xiao Jie called Chen Tianwen directly.
"Hey, hey, hey, Brother Tianwen - Brother Chen, please help me, I'm haunted by the evil spirit again."
Chen Tianwen was silent for a while, then said helplessly: "...I said you are still using the monster's inner elixir to practice that Qi refining technique?"
"I can't help it. I can't find a place with abundant spiritual energy in the game. I can only use demon pills to practice. Didn't you say last time that I had already made it through, so it's not a big problem? I just killed two wolf demons and reached another level."
Chen Tianwen was speechless for a moment, "Refining the demon pill once is of course not a big problem, just get through it.
But I can't stop you from eating monster cores all day long. As the saying goes, quantitative change leads to qualitative change. If you keep coughing up monster cores and absorb too many monster spirits, I can't say what will happen. "
Xiao Jie felt a little uneasy after hearing what he said. This matter really worried him. The increase in the demonization index might be just a reaction. It is already 19% now. If it reaches 100%, who knows what will happen.
He also thought of one thing. When he was fighting Dong Lingzi, the old guy was surprised at first when he found out that he was a Qi Refiner. But then he seemed to have discovered something and smiled at him with glee. At that time, he felt a little uneasy. Now he thought, could it be that there are more hidden dangers in refining Qi with this demon pill?
No, I must go into the dream and talk to Dong Lingzi later. The remaining soul of this guy should still be there, right?
But the most urgent thing is to get through today first.
"I'll pay attention to this in the future. Can you help me today, Brother Chen? I'm counting on you."
"Come to my house, and bring An Ran as well."
