Chapter 406: Strange things to live in
Chapter 406: Strange things to live in
The rise of Xinyi Sect has occurred in the past seven hundred years.
The three generations of great masters single-handedly raised it to a level that was almost on par with the five major Taoist sects. Not to mention Zen Master Da Ding, his uncle was also a prominent figure of the time.
It is said that he had a bald head and bare feet, was ugly and unkempt, did not like to meditate in the mountains, but preferred to mingle with the secular world. "Bald Monk" was the name he called himself.
He was active sixty years ago and was very famous at the time, but nowadays, he is best known for his defeat at the hands of Wan Zhuliu...
"This deal can be done."
While Li Yuan was thinking, Long Xixiang had already spoken:
"However, this matter still depends on Li Yuan himself."
"That's natural."
Long Yingchan said, "I won't agree to it straight away. Li Yuan, what do you think?"
"I naturally have no objection."
Li Yuan was a smart man. Drawing a sword was a very profitable business for him. The monks of Xinyi Sect were very rich. Just thinking about the scent of incense on them made him excited.
"I will never let you suffer any loss."
Long Yingchan frowned. He actually understood Li Yuan better than Long Xixiang did. He smiled slightly:
"The Xinyi Sect is wealthy and powerful. If you need it, don't miss the opportunity."
I want incense.
Li Yuan thought for a moment and asked, "According to your opinion, what should I ask for?"
"Gold, silver, land, magic weapons, magic skills, magic pills, etc., you can choose whatever you want. Even if you want a city, Dading will not refuse."
Long Yingchan did not express his opinion on this. He was more concerned about the bald monk and Zen Master Dading.
"Fucheng..."
Can an entire prefecture be separated out?
Li Yuan was a little shocked, but he didn't have the energy to govern a city in Leiyin Province. After thinking about it, he said:
"Disciple only needs magic weapons and elixirs. In addition, if there are any incense sticks, disciple would also like some..."
"Incense?"
Li Yuan had prepared an excuse, such as the secret weapon-casting method of the Divine Weapon Valley required incense and offerings, but unexpectedly, Long Yingchan just looked at Long Xixiang and agreed.
"In that case, I will accept it on your behalf."
Long Yingchan smiled slightly: "The Xinyi Sect is on the edge of the court's laws, and there are indeed a lot of incense in the sect. Perhaps, I can ask for some before I draw my sword."
"I think they won't mind if you advance them a little."
Master Long understands me!
Li Yuan's eyes lit up.
"The Xinyi Sect is too far away from Hengshan, and the bald monk is seriously injured. Even if we set off now, it will probably take until the rainy season next year..."
Long Yingchan had a plan for this:
"You don't need to suppress your realm. Just break through when you want to. It's him who asked us to do it anyway. Don't worry too much."
"The disciple understands."
Li Yuan thought so too.
After breaking through the sixth floor of the Dragon-Tiger Pagoda with ease, Master Li Dao began to miss the King of Zhenwu. He wanted to use this number one man in the world as a mirror to reflect on his current cultivation.
"Don't be careless."
Long Xixiang glanced at him and said, "Wan Zhuliu's martial arts skills have been transformed by blood transfusion. When he fought against the Grandmaster in the past, he didn't have any magic weapons with him."
"Without using the magic weapon, can you defeat the Grandmaster?"
Li Yuan's eyelids twitched.
In these days, he has tried the true teachings trial of Xuanjing Sect many times, but so far, he can only move around with his body movements. If he confronts it head-on, he will have to activate the Sea-Splitting Xuanjing Hammer and will definitely die from the recoil.
Although the grandmasters in the true trial are all powerful men of all ages, it is enough to show how terrifying the grandmasters are.
"Blood transfusion is the final transformation of the body, which is related to the martial arts practiced and the various forms one possesses. Back then, Wan Zhuliu secluded himself in the Dayun Library for several years before transfusing his blood. I'm afraid he possessed thousands of forms at that time..."
Long Yingchan said lightly:
"As long as Li can gather a thousand forms before his blood exchange is complete, we will naturally have the chance to die together with him!"
"Chikata?"
Long Xixiang frowned slightly. With Li Yuan's talent, it was not impossible for him to change into a thousand forms, but how much time would that take?
He changed his mind and was about to speak when Long Yingchan handed him a silk book:
"Hundred Form Pill?"
"Not bad!"
Long Yingchan naturally had his own considerations for this:
"This recipe was obtained by Li from the True Transmission Trial. This is a great achievement. According to the rules, the first batch of pills must be given to him."
Hundred Form Pill?
Long Xixiang flipped through it and was quite shocked. This pill recipe looked complicated and difficult to make, but the benefits were immeasurable.
Changes in one's bones can, to a certain extent, promote the transformation of one's talents.
For example, Long Xinglie, a man of extraordinary talent and a body that can take on a hundred forms. If he could add a hundred or even hundreds of forms, it might not be possible to push his talent to the eternal level, right?
"This pill recipe."
Long Xixiang was quite moved and saw the potential of this pill recipe.
It is not easy to change one's constitution. Ordinary warriors often have to practice hard for many years before they can change their constitution several times. Even a warrior with an extremely high talent like Long Xinglie can only change his constitution several times a year.
Baixing took nearly thirty years to complete!
"Even if only ten pills are formed from one furnace, that is still a thousand forms!"
Long Yingchan frowned. During this period, whenever he had time, he would communicate with the spirit of the health furnace and decipher the recipe of the elixir bit by bit.
"Thank you, Master."
Li Yuan hurriedly thanked him, saying that the recipe was deciphered at the perfect time.
"Don't be too quick to thank me. Although the recipe has been deciphered, refining it is not easy. If we can refine it within two years, it will be considered fast."
Long Yingchan shook his head.
He had never heard of most of the medicinal materials in the Baixing Pill recipe. He needed to select corresponding substitutes from countless medicinal materials and spiritual herbs based on their medicinal properties and pharmacology.
This is also the reason why he searched for the blood of spiritual beasts on a large scale. For any elixir, the first furnace is the most difficult to refine and consumes the most energy.
In the past, it took thirty to forty years to refine the Dragon-Tiger Pill from the time the recipe was obtained, and the medicinal materials used could be piled up into a mountain if converted into gold.
"You can try to start from the first type of pill?" Li Yuan took the pill recipe, flipped through it, and made a suggestion.
"You still need to tell me?"
Long Yingchan glared at him and said, "Don't worry about these trivial matters. Just concentrate on practicing martial arts. Within two years, I will give you a furnace of Baixing Pills!"
"Thank you, Master."
Li Yuan was grateful from the bottom of his heart.
This is the benefit of having a big sect as your backer. If he were to decipher the recipe and select herbs from scratch and try them one by one, he might not be able to refine a furnace of Hundred Forms Pills even if he died.
The cost of research and development is much higher than the cost of the elixir itself.
"Well, you still need to prepare."
"Prepare?"
Li Yuan was stunned.
"To close this deal and get the benefits in advance, people naturally have to feel confident."
Long Yingchan looked towards the direction of the Dragon and Tiger Pagoda:
"The monks of the Xinyi sect have many problems, but they are still smart enough. They won't feel at ease unless you show some of your skills."
Inspect the goods.
Li Yuan expressed his understanding:
"Disciple will prepare it now."
Immediately, Li Yuan stood up and said goodbye. For such a big deal, he certainly had to make good preparations.
"Can this Hundred Form Pill be refined in two years?"
In the small temple, Long Xixiang was still pondering. He was not good at refining pills, but he knew the difficulty of refining new pills.
"This Hundred Form Pill is very complicated, but fortunately it can be split. Hundred Forms are difficult, but one Form is easy. Find more alchemists and try in many ways. Two years should be enough."
Long Yingchan had some confidence. The Dragon and Tiger Temple had no shortage of alchemists. Even if they didn't have a thousand, they still had eight hundred. If the blood of spirit beasts wasn't extremely rare, he was confident that he could refine it within a year.
"Ah."
Long Xixiang didn't ask any more questions.
"By the way, are the people from Qinglong Pavilion coming soon?"
Long Yingchan has been thinking about the 'Tiancan Taoist'. Although the Xinyi Sect is extremely wealthy, the Qinglong Pavilion also has a strong foundation.
"Well, as for those other companies, can you also give us some hints? Maybe we don't need to..."
……
"Junior Brother Li."
As soon as Li Yuan walked out of the small temple, he ran into Long Xinglie head-on.
"Big brother."
Li Yuan bowed in greeting.
"you……"
Long Xinglie looked haggard, as if he had not slept all night. In fact, he had been lying in bed until now, barely coming to his senses.
"Junior Brother Li, I wonder if Senior Han, who created the Hundred Beasts Thunder Dragon, has come to participate in the martial arts performance?"
"Ok?"
Li Yuan was startled and shook his head. He was still trying to find out about Old Han, but...
"What's going on, Big Brother?"
"I feel something in my heart and want to meet the senior who created the unique skill."
Long Xinglie collected his thoughts and took out a fist-sized ingot of fine gold from his bosom. When the sunlight shone on it, it sparkled with golden light.
"In the past six months, the gambling house has received more than seven hundred taels of fine gold in bets. This is your share."
"so much?"
Li Yuan was startled and quickly reached out to take it.
This fist-sized piece of refined gold weighs nearly three hundred taels. It feels heavy in the hand and makes people feel happy.
Three hundred taels.
One ounce of pure gold, worth forty thousand ounces of silver, three hundred ounces...
"Thanks to those monks from Xinyi Sect."
Long Xinglie's expression changed slightly. More than half of the seven hundred taels of pure gold was from yesterday's bets, and the monks of the Xinyi Sect contributed 99% of it.
"He is rich and powerful."
Li Yuan sighed with emotion. The amount of refined gold in his hand was a huge amount that most families, big or small, could not accumulate in hundreds or even thousands of years.
But it was just the money that the monks bet in one day.
"The Leiyin Continent is full of mountains and islands. It is said that there are hundreds of large-scale gold mines. This money is really nothing to them."
Long Xinglie wasn't that surprised.
Thirty years ago on Yanshan Road, this group of monks placed much more aggressive bets than this, and many of them actually bet on Zhongli Luan, so that in the end, everyone in Samadhi Cave, who won the championship, had a black face.
"Thank you, senior brother."
After a slight sigh, Li Yuan bowed and thanked him. This amount of refined gold was like timely rain. He really wanted to get the batch of spiritual beast skins in Humen.
"This is what Master wanted. I just delivered it to him."
Long Xinglie waved his hands. He did not want to take credit for it. It was not his place to decide on such a large sum of fine gold.
"Thank you, Master."
Li Yuan's mind changed for a moment, he already knew what Taoist Master Long was thinking, he immediately felt that it was not easy to be a Taoist master, as he also had to maintain the relationships with his disciples.
"Master, this job will easily make you bald."
Li Yuan secretly complained and chatted with Long Xinglie for a few words before returning to the house with the three hundred taels of gold.
