Chapter 454: The Shape Pill
Chapter 454: The Hundred Form Pill
Tianyingzi couldn't sit still anymore.
He was so humble and he was bleeding profusely. Finally, Long Yingchan gave in and his uncle arrived.
This kid actually refined his marrow?
"Marrow Refining is complete."
Monk Daming's expression changed, but he couldn't help but look at Long Yingchan.
This old bald donkey is so dirty.
The dragon tablet clearly states that this kid is ranked second on the Dragon Ranking, and has achieved great success in refining internal organs...
"There's no harm in transfusing blood."
Taoist Tiancan waved his hand and held Tianyingzi back, but he didn't care much:
"I have endured for decades, so I don't mind a year or two, but this little fellow is at an age of rapid development, so we can't delay him."
"Ah."
The bald monk raised his hand and wrote a word.
The two grand masters didn't care, so Tianyingzi could only accept it.
From marrow refining to blood transfusion is a difficult task for ordinary warriors, but for this kid, it is a smooth journey.
Besides, Longhu Temple is rich in elixirs, so one or two years would be enough for a complete replacement.
"I was indeed a little careless before, but please rest assured, even if we exhaust the power of the Dragon and Tiger Temple, we will definitely allow Li Yuan to achieve complete blood transfusion within one or two years."
Long Yingchan bowed to express his apology and offered to provide elixir to heal the wounds, thus calming down Tian Yingzi and Monk Daming.
And kept these two seniors of great seniority in Longhu Temple.
During the whole process, Li Yuan didn't say much except to greet the seniors present, until the two old seniors could no longer bear it and went back to their rooms to rest.
"Yunfeng, get some healing elixirs and send them to the two seniors."
Long Yingchan gave orders.
"Yes."
Although surprised by his master's sudden generosity, Long Yunfeng did not ask any questions and just bowed in agreement.
Li Yuan felt a little regretful. He hadn't fought with the King of Zhenwu for a long time since he last drew his sword. He had been looking forward to it.
"The injuries of these two old seniors are too severe. I'm afraid that ordinary healing elixirs may not be effective."
Nie Xianshan was a little surprised. Why was the old guy so generous?
Drawing a sword is a good business, but keeping these two is not a good business.
Such a serious injury would require a large amount of elixirs, and if the injury worsened, he might have to pay with two Dragon and Tiger Pills.
"It's already this late, and you're still thinking about playing dirty tricks?"
Long Yingchan glanced at Nie Xianshan unhappily, and the latter's face twitched and he coughed repeatedly due to choking.
"speak English."
Long Xixiang couldn't help it either. He didn't believe that this old guy would do business that would lose money.
He knew the difference between admiration and business, and Long Yingchan certainly could not be influenced by them.
"When a storm is about to come, we need to make more plans."
Long Yingchan waved his hand, motioning Li Yuan to sit down. After a moment of hesitation, he decided to give a talk, as this was a big deal.
It was only because Long Xinglie had gone into seclusion to practice Taoism, otherwise he would have been called over.
"A storm is coming..."
Li Yuan sat down.
In fact, he had been feeling somewhat uneasy since he last listened to the heavenly music. When he saw Wei Tianzuo being killed, this uneasiness became even stronger.
The Grand Festival is no ordinary thing.
According to what was mentioned in Canglongzi's book on offering sacrifices to gods, the grand sacrifice should at least be for gods of the underworld such as the poisonous dragon and the black toad.
Not to mention, the Bafang Temple is involved here.
The twelve Tianyun Xuanbing soldiers most likely came from the Bafang Temple, which in turn might be related to the destruction of the Xuanjing Sect, the Yangsheng Sect, and even the Liehaixing Sect.
Just thinking about it, he felt like a huge rock was pressing on his heart.
"In the past, Pang Wenlong established his rule over the world and founded the Dayun Dynasty..."
As soon as Long Yingchan opened his mouth, several people present frowned. Li Yuan couldn't help but sigh. Taoist Long was good in every way except that he liked to talk in a beating around the bush.
"Can you speak human language?"
Nie Xianshan was also a little angry. Why don’t you start from ten thousand years ago?
"This matter really needs to be told from the beginning."
Long Yingchan glared at him and tried to be concise:
"When Dayun founded the country, Pang Wenlong divided the world's sects. At the same time, he cut down mountains and destroyed temples, and captured or killed all the evil gods, suppressing them so much that they dared not raise their heads."
He paused slightly, looked at the people present, and found that only Li Yuan was listening quietly, which comforted him a little.
Martial artists in the martial arts world rarely read books, let alone history.
"Pang Wenlong disciplines the gods and accepts incense in their names, but the evil gods are always suppressed and neither dead nor alive."
Li Yuan listened quietly.
"The change occurred a thousand years ago when Pang Wenlong died and the imperial capital was in chaos."
Long Yingchan frowned slightly:
"There is no record of the chaos in the Divine Capital that time. However, after that, the imperial court relaxed its suppression of the Evil God Cult and even secretly condoned it to control Dao Sect like us."
"Unworthy descendants!"
Long Xixiang snorted coldly.
Tolerating the evil spirit will bring endless troubles. Over the past thousand years, bloody sacrifices have occurred from time to time in the martial arts world, resulting in thousands or even millions of deaths and injuries.
"It may not be that the court is willing to let go, right?"
Nie Xianshan frowned slightly:
"Pang Wenlong is one of the four supreme grandmasters of ancient and modern times. He can certainly suppress the evil god, but after his death, his descendants may not have this ability."
"maybe."
Long Yingchan thought about it and didn't hesitate to refute:
"What I want to say is that the relationship between the Evil God Cult and the imperial court is not harmonious, just like our Taoist sect, which is nominally a vassal of the imperial court."
Three-legged tripod?
Li Yuan probably understood what Daoist Master Long wanted to say, and felt helpless when he went around in circles like this:
"The imperial court uses the Evil God Cult to restrain us. Naturally, they also need to use us to restrain the Evil God Cult. Similarly, the three parties also check and balance each other?"
"good."
Long Yingchan was somewhat approving.
"You've gone through so much trouble, and that's all you want to say?"
Nie Xianshan and Long Xixiang both frowned.
"This has been the situation in the world for the past thousand years, and now the balance between the three parties is about to be broken."
"Ok?"
Nie Xianshan's heart was slightly moved: "Because of the great sacrifice?"
"Yes, Daichi."
Thinking back to the spy and the secret letter that someone had sent that night, Long Yingchan frowned and looked serious:
"The imperial court wants to hold a grand sacrifice, and the evil god cult also wants to hold a grand sacrifice. The latter is willing to take risks to ambush and kill Wei Tianzuo, and the former..."
He glanced at the three people present:
"After Wei Tianzuo was ambushed and killed, Emperor Qian was furious and even sent Wan Zhuliu to hold him accountable. He wanted to summon the old thief with a thousand eyes to the capital of the gods!"
"Ok?"
"This……"
As soon as these words were spoken, not only Li Yuan, but even Long Xixiang couldn't help but frown.
If, as Long Yingchan said, the imperial court used the Evil God Cult to check and balance the five major Taoist sects, then the imperial court should be happy to see Wei Tianzuo's success after his death.
Normally, one should even secretly add fuel to the flames, hoping that both sides will suffer losses...
"Where did you get this information?"
Nie Xianshan was a little skeptical.
"It must be true."
Long Yingchan was very confident, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
"I can ask Emperor Qian to send Wan Zhuliu to summon the old thief with a thousand eyes..."
Long Xixiang was also a little frightened. Summoning could allow anyone to go, but sending Wan Zhuliu meant that if Thousand Eyes did not obey the order, he would be beaten until he accepted it!
What kind of grand sacrifice could make the imperial court give up the opportunity to stand by and watch, and even fight against the evil cult?
The Demon-Subduing Dragon Sword, the Sky-Escape Boat, the Sea-Suppressing Black Turtle Shell, plus Wan Zhuliu, this amount is more than enough.
"What is the big sacrifice?"
Nie Xianshan couldn't sit still anymore.
"do not know."
Long Yingchan let out a long sigh.
He had many secret agents, but at most they could only infiltrate the imperial court and palace and could not get close to Emperor Qian.
The only place to inquire is the Evil God Cult.
"I will go down the mountain in the near future."
Long Yingchan collected his thoughts, glanced at the three people who were frowning, and paused for a moment at Li Yuan:
"You must bring the Dragon and Tiger Health Furnace."
"Ok?"
"You want to take the stove down the mountain?"
Before Li Yuan could react, Nie Xianshan and Long Xixiang's faces changed drastically.
"The imperial court wants to hold a grand sacrifice, and the evil god cult wants to hold a grand sacrifice, but I know nothing about it. I will not be at peace until I understand everything."
Long Yingchan paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, his long eyebrows fluttering up and down:
"I have informed Tianshezi, Fang Sanyun, Monk Dading, and Master Yuanqing about this matter..."
'...'
Li Yuan's heart skipped a beat, he knew that Taoist Long was holding back.
Because that night, he used the cover of the Dragon-Tiger Health Care Furnace to shoot an arrow at the sect's main hall. The secret letter clearly stated that it was a grand sacrifice to the Bafang Temple.
Long Yingchan said this, it's not as simple as trying to understand it...
"Master Long also wants to hold a grand ceremony?"
"The Cult of Evil God?"
While Li Yuan was thinking, Long Xixiang had calmed down: "Is this the reason why you kept these two old seniors here?"
"Ah."
Long Yingchan nodded: "This is safer."
He was going down the mountain to join the Evil God Cult, so he couldn't bring Li Yuan with him. But he was worried that someone would set their eyes on the Sea-Splitting Black Whale Hammer.
To be on the safe side, we naturally have to find someone to protect Li Yuan.
Compared to the unreliable owner of Zhaixing Tower, Taoist Tiancan and Laitou Zen Master are naturally more suitable.
The only person in the world who has the potential to draw his sword is Li Yuan.
"Master Long is so thoughtful..."
Li Yuan felt relieved and touched. This was so reliable.
"I……"
Long Xixiang was interrupted as soon as he opened his mouth.
“You need to stay in the mountains.”
Long Yingchan left no doubt: "There must be people in the mountains."
"Ah."
Long Xixiang frowned and agreed. He also understood that although he broke the Tiangang, he was still inferior to Tianshezi and others.
"With you here, I can rest assured when I go down the mountain this time."
Long Yingchan's tone slowed down. He knew very well how to deal with Long Xixiang, and being soft is worse than being hard.
While the two were talking, Nie Xianshan sat back, pinching his beard, with a blank expression on his face, feeling very depressed.
"gone."
After sitting for a while, Nie Xianshan couldn't hold back any longer and jumped out. He wanted to urge the four master craftsmen.
If there hadn't been some problems before, the Pure Yang Sword should have been completed long ago, but even so, it has only been completed in these few days.
"Dragon-Tiger Health Furnace."
Long Yingchan spoke, and Li Yuan did not hesitate. He flipped his hand and took out the health furnace.
"Fenghu Yunlong, the best in escaping, even if you fail in this descent, the furnace will not be lost. But you don't need it for now, I will ask for it before I go down the mountain."
Long Yingchan waved his hand and didn't take it.
"...Your words make me feel a little uneasy."
Master Li was helpless.
He knows what is important and what is not. The Dragon-Tiger Health Furnace is important, but Master Dragon is more important.
Without him in charge, I can't practice in peace.
"I never take risks, old man." Long Yingchan smiled. He went down the mountain just to alert the enemy so as to find the locations of those shrines, not to fight a tough battle.
"The disciple understands."
Li Yuan was still relieved about this.
"Practice diligently, so there's no rush to change blood."
Long Yingchan patted his shoulder and said, "The Hundred Forms Pill has been deciphered. When you have time, go visit Elder Dingxin.
If nothing unexpected happens, the first batch of Hundred Form Pills has already been refined."
"Has the Hundred Form Pill started to be refined?"
Li Yuan's eyes lit up. This was a surprise.
"I looked through the ancestors' daily records and found that before the two ancestors exchanged blood, they practiced multiple martial arts to change their bones..."
Long Yingchan took out a scroll made of unknown animal skin from his arms:
"Go back and look it up."
"Thank you, Master."
Li Yuan reached out and took it.
"The blood transfusion won't be a big obstacle for you, but you still need to be well prepared. If you have any questions, remember to ask me."
Long Xixiang coughed lightly and took out a porcelain bottle from his arms:
"This is a 'Dragon Pill'. Although it is not very helpful for blood transfusion, it has the effect of strengthening tendons. After you take it, you will be able to practice horizontal training more smoothly."
"Thank you, Master."
Li Yuan took it happily, this was the benefit of having a master.
If a master could share a little of his knowledge, there would be a lot of benefits.
"Go."
Long Xixiang waved his hand and Li Yuan left.
Long Yingchan was speechless and did not argue with him, but instead began to give instructions.
Long Xixiang responded one by one. He had guarded the mountain gate many times over the years. Although his memory was vague, he was quite familiar with the route.
But he still had doubts in his mind:
"Brother, what exactly do you want to do when you come down the mountain this time?"
"Revenge on the Evil God Cult is one, and the grand sacrifice is the other."
Long Yingchan let out a long breath and gave his final instructions:
"I will go down the mountain in ten days. You will stay at the gate and don't need to worry about anything else. Just remember, don't let Li try to draw his sword before I come back."
"Ok?"
Long Xixiang reacted quickly: "Are you afraid that the two old seniors can't withstand the backlash of drawing the sword?"
"almost."
Long Yingchan thought more.
If he were Wan Zhuliu, he would not sit idly by and watch others draw their swords one after another...
"call!"
After Long Xixiang left, Long Yingchan rubbed his temples, feeling that he was destined to a hard life. He turned around and arrived at the Mountain of Beasts.
After a while, the black and white figure, like a cat and a tiger, was seen. The latter stood on the treetop and looked back, his eyes shining with golden fire.
"Thank you, Mr. Qin, for sending a warning letter a few days ago. What you said is correct. The imperial court and the evil god cult will both hold a grand sacrifice at the Bafang Temple."
Long Yingchan bowed.
"?!"
What warning am I giving?
Qin Shixian was a little confused, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, his heart was suddenly shocked.
Grand Festival at the Happo Temple?!
……
……
"Major sacrifice to the Eight Directions Temple."
After leaving Long's house, Li Yuan was still thinking.
According to what I heard and saw while listening, this grand sacrifice to the Eight Directions Temple seemed to require someone from outer space. If so, then Daoist Master Long...
"There is one person from outside the universe in the imperial court, one in the evil god cult, and in addition, there is a spirit turtle. Well, I still have half of it..."
Li Yuan touched the Mirage Dragon Belt around her waist. After being locked up in a small dark room for a night, the little female dragon was mentally stable and slept peacefully.
hum~
Li Yuan used his true Qi to induce vomiting, and the little female dragon soon woke up:
"You, what do you want to do?"
"Ask me something."
Li Yuan was very direct and asked about the temple she mentioned when she was mumbling to herself yesterday.
"That temple..."
The little female dragon seemed to have remembered something extremely terrifying, and her mind was in a state of violent fluctuation:
"That temple is very scary, very scary. It's like a curtain that covers the sea of clouds, the sky, the earth, and the stars..."
The little female dragon was quite frightened, and stammered in a state of mental agitation:
"What temple is that?"
she does not know?
Thinking back to the woman Chi Lian holding an umbrella when listening to the music, Li Yuan frowned slightly:
"Eight-way Temple."
"Eight, Eight-Direction Temple?!"
The little female dragon's emotions suddenly reached an extremely high level, and Li Yuan was dizzy for a moment because of her scream:
"you know?"
"A wonder, a wonder of the universe!"
The little female dragon was so shocked that she couldn't say anything more:
"The Eight Directions Temple is a wonder of the universe. It appeared in Tianshiyuan many years ago and caused the five great caves to fight each other. Even the gods descended and fought fiercely. A god once died!"
Her spirit was shaking, and the whip that Li Yuan was holding was also shaking:
"What are the wonders of the universe? What are the benefits?"
"You don't even know the wonders of the universe...oh, you don't know."
The little dragon's voice instantly fell back. She almost forgot that this was a native. Feeling the powerful palm, she calmed down.
"Wonderful scenes are the foundation of the Tao. For cultivators like me, we have touched upon the mysteries of heaven and earth, the beginning of the laws of the universe, and are also the foundation for condensing spiritual forms."
The little female dragon cooperated very well, but she was still a little excited:
"A wonder can shape a spiritual image. The more powerful the wonder, the more powerful the spiritual image can be!"
Is that so?
Li Yuan was very calm, mainly because he had not yet entered the Tao, and his knowledge of wonders was limited to what he heard in books and from other people.
There is something a bit vague about the wonders of the universe.
"A cosmic spiritual form can forge a divine foundation!"
The little female dragon could hardly contain her restlessness.
If we can seize the Eight Directions Temple, no, if we can sell the news that the Eight Directions Temple is here, we will have at least hundreds of Yuan Fires!
"Shen Ji?"
Li Yuan kept her words in mind and asked her if she had any way to find the Bafang Temple.
"No, no..."
The little dragoness's mood dropped instantly, but she soon became active again:
"If you help me rebuild my body, I might be able to find a way..."
"any solution?"
Li Yuan only asked but did not agree.
This time, the little female dragon didn't answer, and she looked like she would never speak again unless she helped me reshape my body.
"What do you need to rebuild your body?"
"Star-level Azure Dragon..."
"Okay, stop talking."
Li Yuan loosened his true energy and cut off the sensation. Where could he find the Star-level Canglong?
"This little dragon probably doesn't know..."
Li Yuan thought that, in comparison, the spirit turtle carrying the palace was more reliable. He knew that this turtle was in Hengliu City before, but was it still there now?
"Well, if you are here, you might as well let Master Long know..."
Sensing the Dragon-Tiger Health Preserving Furnace, Li Yuan muttered to himself, since he got the health preserving furnace, Master Long can no longer appear and disappear mysteriously in the Dragon and Tiger Mountains.
Now it is he who is elusive.
Suppressing his thoughts, Li Yuan turned around and went straight to find Master Dingxin. He had been thinking about the Baixing Pill for a long time.
Although the pill recipes he obtained from the Yangsheng Sect's true trial were all good, the Baixing Pill was still the most valuable and useful to him.
……
Master Li was turned away.
Master Dingxin closed the door and refused visitors, concentrating on making the elixir. Li Yuan wanted to observe, but did not dare to go in and disturb her.
The Baixing Pill uses a lot of medicinal materials and spiritual blood. It would be bad if the furnace exploded due to being disturbed.
In the next few days, Li Yuan continued to work as usual, doing ironwork, practicing martial arts, and reading books, but he would come to see Master Dingxin every day.
In this way, another seven or eight days passed, and the Chunyang Sword had reached the final step. He finally knocked on the door of Master Dingxin. The old nun, with a face full of worldly air, was extremely tired, but her eyes were bright.
The Baixing Pill has been refined.
……
"Hundred Form Pill!"
Inside the room, Li Yuan put away the deciphered pill formula and poured out four Hundred Shape Pills from the porcelain bottle.
This pill is dark red in color, without any fragrance, but instead has a faint smell of blood. If you look closely, you seem to be able to sense the breath of various spiritual beasts.
"There shouldn't be any problem with this pill, right?"
Li Yuan sniffed and found the smell a bit pungent. He glanced at the corner and saw the little mouse carrying its general.
It was a giant rat three times its size.
As the only spiritual rat in the Dragon and Tiger Mountains, it has tens of thousands of rats under its command. These are only the strongest ones, which it picked to test the medicine.
"Squeak~"
Under the gazes of Li Yuan and Little Haozi, the giant rat suddenly let out a scream, and its body swelled up visibly.
It looked like a giant beast was about to break out of its body, which was extremely terrifying.
The little mouse ran into Li Yuan's arms, and the latter stretched out his hand, pressed the giant mouse to the ground with his palm transformed from his true energy, and sensed it carefully.
“Such a small amount of powder can be so effective?”
Li Yuan was quite surprised.
He was an expert in changing one's root bones, and he noticed right away that this giant rat had the faint characteristics of several different spiritual beasts.
Although it is very weak, in terms of physical constitution, it is probably better than Yue Yunjin, a rat with superior physical constitution!
"Squeak, squeak!"
The little mouse also widened his eyes.
"I have a few pills left for you to try."
Li Yuan raised his hand and slapped the little guy aside. It felt very solid, like an iron ball, heavy and hard, and it didn't feel good.
This is why he hasn't been petting the mouse much recently. It's like a lead ball covered with barbs.
"Squeak~"
The little mouse was easily satisfied. After licking the medicine powder clean, it took the giant rat, which was several times bigger than it, away.
"These four Hundred Form Pills overlap with each other, and their efficacy decreases, but when added together, they should have at least one or two hundred forms, right?"
Li Yuan was playing with these four pills, feeling a little excited. There wasn't just one batch of Hundred-Shape Pills. If he made a few more batches, maybe he could get Thousand-Shape Pills right away?
"call!"
Li Yuan stood up and did a few sets of standing exercises to mobilize all his Qi, blood, and true Qi. Then he sat down again, raised his head slightly, and swallowed all four Baixing Pills into his stomach.
Baixing Pill does not make drastic changes to one's bones and muscles. It is more like a spark. After being swallowed, it needs to be combined with the nourishment of the elixir to change one's bones and muscles many times within a certain period of time.
The Dragon-Tiger Pill and the medicinal power of the tiger pill that has not yet been digested can naturally meet the needs.
"After the medicinal power is digested, Master Dingxin will probably be able to start the second batch, right?"
Feeling the medicinal power flowing through his body, Li Yuan was in a good mood. He multitasked, and while visualizing in his mind, he continued to sort out the many mid-to-low-level martial arts he had practiced.
Soon, it was late at night.
Li Yuan's breathing calmed down, and when he was about to listen to the music and go to sleep, he suddenly realized something:
"Is this the breath of the divine realm?"
……
