Dragon Blood Golden Body Fruit?
Li Yuan's heart moved slightly, and he replied: "I found it in a forest when I passed through Youzhou. I can't remember the exact location, but I remember it was not far from a post station in Qishamen."

The power of this golden body pill is so unusual, is it related to the dragon blood golden body fruit?
"Youzhou, Qishamen Posthouse, is it the posthouse where you can transfer from water to land?"

Xin Wenhua asked.

"Yes, but there is only one golden fruit tree in the mountain."

Li Yuan answered cautiously.

With the intelligence capabilities of the Longhu Temple, even if he wanted to conceal it, he couldn't hide his whereabouts.

"Only one?"

Master Dingxin was a little disappointed.

"Master, Senior Brother Xin, please sit down and talk."

Li Yuan asked the two to sit down, took out the Baicao wine and filled Xin Wenhua's glass, and replaced it with tea for Master Dingxin.

Although he seldom drinks tea, he always keeps some on hand, and when things get more oily, he'll have a few cups.

"Master, the reason why the Golden Body Pill is so violent is because of those Jiao Xue Golden Body Fruits?"

Li Yuan took the initiative to speak.

"Ah."

Glancing at Li Yuan, who seemed to be fine, Master Dingxin nodded and did not hide anything:
"The Jiao Xue Jin Shen fruits you brought are somewhat unusual. Their medicinal power is much stronger than that of ordinary hundred-year-old fruits. I was not careful and almost caused a disaster."

She was more afraid than Xin Wenhua of something going wrong with the elixir. If something went wrong, she would be held accountable. The Longhu Temple was known as the number one elixir sect, and it was not only unique in its alchemy skills.

The rules are also very strict.

Not to mention that it concerns the master who obviously has the potential to teach in person.

"No wonder the medicinal power of this Golden Body Pill is so much stronger than what is recorded in the book. This is the reason."

Li Yuan looked like he was still frightened, but he wasn't upset at all.

He held on for a whole day and a half night because he didn't want to waste the medicine. Otherwise, with his control over his body, he would have vomited it out long ago.

"The medicinal power is strong, but the auxiliary ingredients are not enough to balance the violent nature of the dragon blood. If you are not careful, your internal organs may be torn apart. This pill is useless."

Nun Dingxin sighed and took out a porcelain bottle from her bosom:

"This is because I was careless and destroyed such a rare golden body fruit. This bottle of 'Jade Body Pill' is my apology."

The teacher is so open-minded.

Li Yuan didn't even think about pursuing anyone's responsibility. After all, apart from being too violent, the Golden Body Pill was completely beyond his expectations.

But of course he would not refuse the elixir that was handed to him. He thanked her immediately and took it.

"The Jade Body Pill is as potent as the Golden Body Pill, and it also has the effect of strengthening the body and replenishing the essence. Its price both internally and externally is higher than the Golden Body Pill. Junior Brother Li has turned a disaster into a blessing."

Seeing that Li Yuan took it without hesitation, Xin Wenhua smiled and showed some appreciation. He hated those false courtesies that were constantly declined but finally accepted the gift.

"Thank you, Master."

Li Yuan bowed and thanked him.

"It was originally my fault, I am just apologizing, why should I thank you?"

Master Dingxin waved her hand:
"This bottle of Jade Body Pill is not as valuable as two furnaces of Golden Body Pill, but I don't have any other elixirs on me at the moment, so I can only make up for it later."

"You are too kind, old lady."

Li Yuan was already satisfied with having an extra bottle of Jade Body Pill. It would be impolite to ask for more.

At this time, Xin Wenhua put down the wine glass in his hand and spoke at the right time: "By the way, Master, you said before that the problem lies with the dragon blood that nourishes the golden body fruit tree?"

"I doubt it, that's not dragon blood."

There were only three people in the room. Master Dingxin hesitated for a moment and then said softly:
"Last night, I was in the library, reading the alchemy experience left by the ancestors. I am sure that even the 'Jiao Wang' in the Beast Mountain cannot raise such a violent golden body fruit!"

At this point, she paused slightly and lowered her voice a little:
"As the saying goes, a snake that lives for a hundred years becomes a walking dragon, and a dragon that lives for a thousand years becomes a dragon. I suspect that the golden fruit tree was not watered with dragon blood, but..."

"Dragon blood!"

"Dragon blood?!"

Xin Wenhua was shocked: "How is this possible? If there was a dragon transforming into a dragon in Hengshan, it would have caused a sensation throughout the world."

The saying that a snake takes ten years to grow, a dragon takes a hundred years to grow, and a dragon takes a thousand years to grow has been around for a long time, but the vast majority of people have never even seen a dragon, let alone a dragon?
Dragon blood?

Li Yuan's eyes moved slightly.

In his mind, he thought of several guesses made by Old Han when he picked up the Dragon Blood Golden Body Fruit.

"Could it be that the golden fruit tree is really stained with the blood of a land immortal?"

"Maybe it's dragon blood, or maybe..."

Xin Wenhua came to his senses and looked at Master Dingxin, both of them looking a little solemn.

The atmosphere in the cabin became a little depressing.

Li Yuan poured water and wine for the two of them, and the three of them tacitly skipped this topic and talked about other things, Hengshan City, and interesting stories in the martial arts world.

Naturally, they talked about Chu Xuankong's failure to break through.

"The blood exchange level is difficult, and the master level is even more difficult. In the past two hundred years, at least twenty quasi-masters in our temple have died at the level of 'body and soul integration'."

Xin Wenhua felt sad, but Master Dingxin didn't care much. She was over 120 years old when she started to refine her internal organs, and she was still far from being a master.

It's just a little sad. If the body and soul are united, one will become a master. If one fails, both the body and soul will be damaged, the realm will fall, and the lifespan will be greatly reduced.

"Brother Chu failed to break through to the Grandmaster level, and his Qi and blood are both depleted. I wonder if the Dragon Tiger Pill can save him?"

Li Yuan asked at the right time.

He knew the least about the affairs within the sect and in the martial arts world, and he was the one who mostly asked questions during the conversation.

"It is possible to save him, but there may not be anyone willing to give him a Dragon Tiger Pill."

Master Dingxin was very familiar with the medicinal properties of the Dragon Tiger Pill and was certain that it could cure his injuries:
"One furnace of Dragon Tiger Pills requires thousands of different spiritual herbs, with strict requirements on the age and medicinal properties. It also requires the essence and blood of the Dragon King. Normally, one furnace is made every ten years..."

Li Yuan listened very carefully.

The furnace of the Dragon-Tiger Pill is opened once every ten years, and each time, more than ten to twenty pills are produced. It goes without saying that the quantity is very small.

The nine hall masters can get one pill every twenty years. A true disciple can be given one pill when he is promoted to a true disciple, and then one pill every twenty years.

The Dragon and Tiger gate masters have one every fifteen years.

"As for the Dao Master..."

Master Dingxin didn't say anything, and neither of them dared to ask.

"Thank you for clearing up my doubts, Master."

Seeing Master Dingxin stand up, Li Yuan saw her off. When they reached the door, Master Dingxin stopped again and warned the two in a deep voice:
"Alchemy is all about the compatibility of medicinal properties. One point more or one point less is not a good thing. The Golden Body Pill is as powerful as a tiger or a wolf. Try not to use it if possible..."

She glanced at Li Yuan, then turned to Xin Wenhua:

"There can be no mistakes in the blood transfusion. You are not allowed to swallow it no matter what. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, those old guys in your family will go crazy!"

"Don't worry, Master."

Xin Wenhua nodded.

Nun Dingxin was very confident in him. After giving him some instructions, she looked at Li Yuan:
"As for you, the Jade Body Pill can neutralize the medicinal power of the Golden Body Pill, but it is still dangerous. If you want to take it, you must be prepared..."

Master Dingxin shook her head and turned away.

She also came from a poor family and had a hard time walking all the way, meeting many people. Xin Wenhua came from a prominent family, so she didn't mind giving up a bottle of Golden Body Pill, but Li Yuan might not give it up.

That bottle of Jade Body Pill was naturally specially prepared.

"Take care, Master."

Li Yuan bowed and said goodbye. This teacher was too particular. He was sharp-minded and naturally sensed the good intentions. "If it is really as the nun said..."

Watching Master Dingxin go far away, Xin Wenhua whispered to himself. After thinking for a while, he took out the bottle of Golden Body Pill:
"Junior Brother Li, this bottle of Golden Body Pill is for you... Don't worry, I won't give it to you for free. You have to tell me the exact location of the forest where you picked up the Golden Body Fruit."

"This……"

After talking for a while, Xin Wenhua left with satisfaction.

He felt it was a good deal to exchange a bottle of Golden Body Pill that might hinder his blood transfusion for a forest where a "real dragon" might roam.

If there really was real dragon blood falling into the forest, there wouldn't be any reason for only one drop to flow, right?

"Brother, walk slowly."

Outside the courtyard, Li Yuan was quite satisfied.

As soon as I woke up, I earned a bottle of Golden Body Pill and a bottle of Jade Body Pill for free. Anyone would wake up smiling at such good news.

"Before, I was thinking that I shouldn't take too much of this Golden Body Pill, but this bottle of Jade Body Pill came just in time. The teacher is really particular."

Li Yuan was quite grateful.

The power of his Golden Body Pill was too fierce. With his physique, if he hadn't taken a health-preserving pill, it would have taken him at least three days to get out of bed.

He felt that taking one pill every ten days was a bit dangerous.

But with the Jade Body Pill to neutralize it, this problem will naturally not exist.

only……

"Severe pain is unavoidable."

Holding the pill in his hand, Li Yuan felt a lingering fear when thinking about what happened yesterday.

"Woo~"

Li Yuan closed the gate and found that the little tiger had just climbed over the wall. When he saw him, he immediately turned around and lay on the windowsill to bask in the sun.

"Your little belly is bulging. Well, it saves me from feeding you."

After putting away the pills, Li Yuan relaxed his muscles a little, picked up a few remaining weapons, and went out.

However, before going to Chungang Peak, he stopped by the library.

There are more than a dozen libraries inside and outside the Longhu Temple. He often goes to the library under the Huntian Heaven and borrows many books from the outer building.

But this time, he went to the inner building.

……

The library in Huntang Paradise covers a large area, and there is even a flat martial arts training ground in front of the door with all kinds of weapons. People practice martial arts here all year round.

Li Yuan came to a small house outside the library with familiarity, which was where the borrowing of books was managed.

After returning the books he had borrowed previously, Li Yuan asked about the inner building.

Behind the counter of the small room was a young woman. She took a file from under the counter, flipped through it briefly, and answered respectfully:

"Uncle Li, you are ranked 44th on the Dragon Ranking. According to the sect's rules, you can choose two superior martial arts, sixteen intermediate martial arts, and one hundred and sixty inferior martial arts."

Not a lot.

Li Yuan knew a little about the rules of borrowing books in the inner building, so he was not too surprised. He just asked:

"What about the unique skills? I remember that the top 50 on the Dragon Ranking can borrow some unique skills..."

"There is no unique skill in the inner building. If Master Li wants to exchange for a unique skill, he needs to go to the Dragon-Tiger Tower."

"Dragon Tiger Tower?"

Li Yuan's heart moved slightly.

The Dragon-Tiger Tower was the tall tower that he had seen from afar when he first went to the Secret Realm of the Health Furnace. The three halls of the Taoist lineage were all outside that tall tower.

That is the real core of Longhu Temple.

"Uncle Li, this is your token. If you need any martial arts, you can borrow it. Just register it."

"Thank you."

Li Yuan took back the token and walked into the inner building where the library was stored.

The inner building of the Dragon and Tiger Temple is larger than that of the Divine Weapon Valley and has more books. Li Yuan already had an idea in mind and walked straight to the room where the "Hammer Method" and "Horizontal Training" were located.

He had a plan in mind before coming.

With the blessing of the divine hammer Juntian, hammer technique is naturally his first choice. With the Golden Body Pill and Jade Body Pill in hand, it is natural for him to practice a few more horizontal training techniques.

This is also the fastest way to change your constitution.

"The best choice is something like the Ancient Elephant Six-Shaped Hammer, which has multiple forms of martial arts. The next best is the Spirit Ape Hammer... As for horizontal training, internal strength is better than external training."

Soon, Li Yuan had selected six hammer techniques, three of which were single-spirit forms, and three were double-form forms. As for horizontal training, they were the most common "Iron Shirt" and "Golden Bell Cover".

These two types of horizontal training are the most common. They are also available in the Divine Weapon Valley, but they just have the same name. These two types of training are clearly intermediate-level martial arts.

"If you achieve the Iron Shirt, your internal organs will feel like they are wearing iron clothes. If you achieve the Golden Bell Cover, your body will feel like it is covered by a golden bell... Well, let's choose these first."

Li Yuan naturally wouldn't choose dozens of martial arts at once.

After leaving the library, Li Yuan went straight to Chungang Peak.

More than half a year had passed, and his business at Chungang Peak was becoming more and more prosperous. Many people came to him every day, mainly for repair work.

"The old-for-new exchange program is about to begin. First, we need to gather enough weapons that can meet the requirements for mastering these six hammer techniques..."

The heat was rolling on Chungang Peak and the sound of iron hammering was endless. Li Yuan had something in mind and began to select customers to promote his plan of exchanging old items for new ones.

……

……

Forging iron, practicing martial arts, reading, meditating, taking pills...

Li Yuan's life is very regular.

Every three days, he would take a Golden Body Pill and every seven days a Jade Body Pill, and his martial arts skills would improve by leaps and bounds.

On the thirteenth day after he obtained the Golden Body Pill, his Ten Thousand Blades Spirit Dragon Body was completed, and his Golden Bell Cover and Iron Cloth Shirt were also completed. On the fourteenth day, after taking the second Jade Body Pill, his Dragon Zen Vajra Sutra was also completed to a small extent.

The Dragon-Tiger Hun Tian Hammer was a little slower, but with the help of the Divine Hammer Jun Tian, ​​it also made steady progress and achieved some minor success.

"puff!"

It was snowing heavily. Li Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged in the courtyard, opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of dirty blood. He closed his eyes and moved his internal energy and blood.

The sound of blood rushing and bones rubbing against each other emanated from the body, continuously...

"call!"

After a long time, he opened his eyes. His pupils were as bright as torches in the snowy night, and the aura around him also calmed down.

"The Hundred Forms Road is already halfway through!"

Li Yuan raised his hand, and as his five fingers clenched together, a sound of air exploded. Feeling the growing strength in his body, a faint sense of satisfaction rose in his heart.

The Golden Body Pill destroyed his body very severely, but it also invisibly accelerated the transformation of his bones. Over the past ten days or so, he actually changed into two spiritual forms, making a total of fifty forms.

At the same time, his internal energy also increased by several times, and he successfully forged a fourth energy channel. At this moment, with a little effort, his hands and feet were covered with light yellow internal energy.

"With the blessing of the mighty force, I can endure it for a longer time..."

After sitting in the snow all night, Li Yuan got up when it was bright. The wind and snow had not yet stopped, but he had already changed his clothes, gone down the mountain and into the city.

Prepare to close the second divine hammer.
