[Thousand Spirits Monument for Saving People (Level 6)]
Li Yuan had obtained this Thousand Spirits Saving People Stele a long time ago, but due to the spirit inside, he had been unable to extract the incense from it.
"The Thousand Spirits Monument, inside this should be the remnant of the Thousand-Eyed Bodhisattva, one of the most popular gods in Dayun..."
Li Yuan was thinking in his heart.
There are four methods to punish gods. Firstly, he has no spiritual appearance, and secondly, he does not know where the shrine is. It is impossible for him to cut down mountains and destroy temples, let alone offer incense to the master of the law.
He looked at an incense burner filled with smoke. Before he threw the Yunxiang Ding to Sikong Xing, the incense was stored here.
"Among these incense sticks, there should be incense sticks from other Dharma masters, but how to distinguish them is also a problem. Moreover, my incense sticks are only at the sixth level at most. Can they refine that divine spirit?"
Li Yuan had some plans in mind on how to deal with this god, but he was also a little hesitant.
He has the incense of the alien gods, and he also has the method to light the incense.
But he didn't want to waste the incense, and had been thinking of other ways these days.
"How about giving it a try first? Give it a try, it's just a few sticks of incense, now the Taoist has it."
Li Yuan's mind changed, and he took out the [Divine Fire Ten Thousand Forging Hammer (Sixth Level)] from his weapon talisman, and also brought over the [Fire Dragon Sword (Sixth Level)].
In the Book of God-Slaying given to him by Taoist Long, there was a crude method of stimulating the burning of incense, but he had a better way, namely, the Divine Fire Furnace.
"The methods of the Evil God Cult are strange and unpredictable. It is best not to take this Thousand Spirits Monument to the outside world."
Out of fear of the evil cult and considerations for his own safety, Li Yuan has always been very cautious. He has never taken the stele out since he got it.
"Try a few times, and if it doesn't work, find another way."
With a humming sound, a pure yellow flame rose from the Divine Fire Furnace. Li Yuan felt a little painful, as he only had a little over a hundred sixth-level incense sticks.
With a plan in mind, Li Yuan did not hesitate and directly threw the Thousand Spirits Stele, the Fire Dragon Sword, and the Ten Thousand Forging Hammer into the Divine Fire Furnace.
The synthesis of a seventh-level divine weapon requires seventh-level incense, but what he wants is failure.
hum~
The Divine Fire Weapon Furnace trembled violently, and Li Yuan threw some gold and silver into it. Flames rose up, and after a while, there was another buzzing sound, and the three weapons were spit out.
Is it useful?
Li Yuan didn't care about the incense, and carefully examined the Qianling Saving People Stele. From a close distance, the fine lines on the stele seemed to have been burned:
"It seems to be of some use?"
Useful, but not much.
Li Yuan felt relieved. If the sixth-level incense was completely useless, he would have to find another way.
"Come again!"
Convinced that it would work, Li Yuan made up his mind and ignited the Divine Fire Furnace again.
hum~
hum~~
On the dark stone platform, the Divine Fire Furnace flashed more than ten times. When the three weapons were spit out again, Master Li Dao felt a sharp pain in his body.
In his mind, one sixth-grade incense stick represented a top-grade famous weapon, and he wasted more than ten in one go.
"Hasn't it been burned yet?"
Li Yuan frowned and looked at it. Most of the patterns on the Thousand Spirits Monument were gone.
He tried to guide the incense inside, and felt the monument tremble slightly. A seventh-level incense was guided out by him.
"it is good!"
Seeing this, Li Yuan felt relieved, and without any hesitation, he ignited the Divine Fire Furnace again.
hum~
hum~~
After more than ten flashes, when the Thousand Spirits Monument was spit out again, the patterns on it had completely disappeared.
"Thirty sixth-level incense sticks were wasted."
Li Yuan didn't have time to feel sad. With a quick thought, he drew out all the incense sticks from the Thousand Spirits Monument. After he counted them, the pain in his heart was immediately gone.
"Seventh-level incense, twelve sticks, eighth-level incense, four sticks!"
Under the interweaving of pale gold and golden incense sticks, the gray stone platform seemed to be covered with a layer of gold. Li Yuan was certain in his heart that although the incense sticks were wasted, the gains were enough to make up for it.
"If all succeed, these will be four eighth-rank divine weapons!"
Master Li Dao didn't even consider the possibility of failure. Feeling the light of the high-level incense, he was already thinking about how to use it.
"There are only four eighth-level incense sticks. You must consider them carefully and make sure not to waste any of them."
God knows when he will get the eighth-level incense next time. Li Yuan was very cautious and did not rush to try. After counting the weapons on the stone platform,
I listened to it a dozen times as usual and fell asleep with thoughts.
……
It was easy to fall asleep when it was raining at night. Li Yuan slept soundly and did not wake up until dawn the next day.
"Comfortable."
After relaxing his muscles and doing two sets of standing exercises, Li Yuan left the weapon forging shop.
The sky cleared up after the heavy rain, but there was still a light mist in the air. Li Yuan had some breakfast along the way and wandered around various weapon shops, silk shops, and leather shops.
He seldom went down the mountain, but every time he did he would take a walk around, eat something delicious, and buy some things.
Hengshan City is a central place, and with martial arts performances imminent, there are all kinds of goods from all over the world. Li Yuan took a walk around and almost filled up the carriage.
"There are so many good things."
After spending the last bit of silver he had, Li Yuan reluctantly returned to the mountain. He counted the money in the carriage.
There are three pairs of spirit leather boots of high grade and sixteen pairs of low grade. The others are also things like bone ornaments and belts. There are quite a few of them but their grades are not high either.
“There are more and more experts.”
In the carriage, Li Yuan looked out the window from time to time. After his weapon-controlling talisman was promoted to the eighth level, he could sense the light of all weapons within a range of 160 meters with just a little concentration, even if they were hidden deep underground, he could not hide them.
At this moment, he glanced around and saw hundreds and thousands of weapons shining like waves, including famous weapons, top-grade famous weapons, and even occasionally, top-grade famous weapons.
"When the martial arts performances are held, the scene will be even more spectacular."
Li Yuan sighed in his heart and lowered the curtain. There was still a year before the martial arts performance, and Hengshan City was already very lively, with crowds of people everywhere. It took more than two hours to walk more than ten miles.
The mountain gate square of Longhu Temple is also very lively. Young disciples from various sects come here as their first stop when they arrive in Hengshan City to walk along the archway.
Li Yuan stopped and watched for a while. Most of the people who dared to come here had some confidence in their talents, and they were probably influential figures in their respective sects.
But how easy is it to attract the appearance of the Azure Dragon and the White Tiger?
After Pei Jiu, the archway shook only once, and that was by Zhongli Luan, the leader of the previous generation's martial arts performance.
"Yan Chunyang also counts. His talent is probably better than that of Senior Brother Long..."
His mind wandered a little, and Li Yuan asked Liu Zheng to return the purchased items to the yard. He then went to Jingtao Hall to watch the four great craftsmen forging iron.
……
By the pond, four great craftsmen and their disciples were busy forging iron.
Li Yuan finished forging iron materials for today early, and was watching while drinking tea.
"It's too complicated to create a magic weapon. It's more cost-effective to combine the weapons."
Li Yuan held the teacup, his mind wandering.
Not to mention exchanging two thousand inferior weapons for one divine weapon, even if it was twenty thousand for one, it would still be an extremely cost-effective deal. It's just that it would be difficult to attract people to offer incense.
"There are very few high-level incense sticks, and none of them can be wasted. We need to think carefully about what to combine."
Li Yuan muttered to himself.
For him personally, the first thing is naturally boots, followed by bone ornaments, then armor, and finally, the hammer.
Among them, the heavy hammer is the easiest to obtain, but the other three are very troublesome. Armor is prohibited, and he wants thousands of pieces at once, which will alarm Master Long.
As for boots and bone ornaments, there are simply too few of them on the market and it is impossible to get that many.
Thinking in his heart, Li Yuan looked at the four master craftsmen. He had always been very interested in the art of weapon forging. At first, it was a way of making a living, but later, he really immersed himself in it.
The sound of iron hammering made him feel at ease.
……
An ordinary day passed, and Li Yuan still went back and forth between the three points, alternating between practicing martial arts and ironwork, and visualizing and refining his internal organs.
With the blessing of eternal talent, his martial arts improved day by day, with changes every day. Several of his stances and martial arts reached perfection one after another, pushing the number of his shape-changing abilities to one hundred and twelve.
The Nine Manifestations of Cloud Dragon has reached perfection, and the Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake has also approached great perfection.
"call!"
"Suck!"
At night, in the small courtyard, Li Yuan stood with a hammer in his hand, his long breathing accompanied by the chirping of summer cicadas.
He stood still, but his muscles and bones were trembling naturally under his Taoist robe. Although he seemed motionless, he was actually consuming a lot of energy. This was the practice of Long Chan Diamond Sutra.
This unique martial art combines both horizontal training and arduous practice. When you first start practicing, the movements are strange and more exaggerated than the yoga in previous lives, but in the end, it becomes a static exercise.
Do not move or hear, but your mind and body are both moving.
"call!"
At a certain moment, the heavy hammer fell to the ground. Li Yuan put his hands together in front of his chest and bowed slightly, like a boy worshiping Buddha.
This was a very normal action, but when he bent over, beads of sweat flowed out of Li Yuan's body like water, just like clothes that had just been taken out of the water and were being wrung out.
hum~
Along with a loud buzzing sound, the true energy behind Li Yuan naturally intertwined and transformed into a diamond figure about ten feet tall with a dragon wrapped around its waist.
"hold head high!"
"Roar!"
Li Yuan seemed to hear the angry eyes of King Kong and the long roar of Azure Dragon. The vibrations in his body became more and more violent, and his sweat evaporated like rising air.
"call!"
After a long time, the vibration subsided, and Li Yuan slowly opened his eyes, his eyes slightly bright:
"Dragon Zen Vajra, Dragon Entangled Vajra, combination of movement and stillness, hard training and horizontal training... This unique skill has a higher purpose than the Dragon-Tiger Heaven Hammer. The dragon has nine forms, and the Vajra also has nine forms..."
A unique skill has been mastered, which can change eighteen aspects of the muscles and bones.
"Old Han definitely doesn't have 130."
A pool of cold water poured over his head to wash away the sweat. Li Yuan felt refreshed. He didn't need to go to the Xuanjing Gate Archway to try it, he could feel it himself.
After Long Chan completed the Diamond Sutra, his own talent had also crossed the threshold of being unrivaled.
Even without the blessing of the Weapon Control Scroll, his current talent is already catching up with Long Xinglie. And if he activates the blessing of various weapons...
"There is no other like it in the history..."
Li Yuan recalled the Dragon Demon Taoist's mumbling when he was listening to the Heavenly Sound:
"A talent that is unrivaled in the world?"
Master Li Dao smiled slightly, and without entering the house, he sat cross-legged under the old tree. The true energy behind him rose up and turned into the shadow of a dragon, and then quickly fell back and entered his internal organs.
