Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Chapter 73 Shouyan's Auxiliary Cultivation Technique (Seeking recommendations and monthly votes!)
Whether it was a secret or not, Gu Qing didn't know.

In short, judging from the accumulated inventory, very few true cultivators are willing to exchange for the Azure Sea Pill; not everyone has a year to slowly digest it all.

If a mission comes up in the middle and I don't have time to refine it.

The medicine will then restore its own true energy, and with this increase and decrease, it's possible that a lot of it will be wasted.

For ordinary disciples, it's not cost-effective.

Exchanging for three Azure Sea Pills had already depleted all of Gu Qing's savings.

"Elder Yao, this disciple takes his leave."

"Hey, don't be in such a hurry to leave. I've made some plum blossom tea. Let's chat."

Elder Yao has probably been in an environment full of old-fashioned people for too long, so his personality is a bit eccentric. Despite his age, he always likes to chat with the younger disciples.

Gu Qing's lips twitched.

"I have urgent business to attend to and cannot stay any longer..."

With a slight bow, Gu Qing withdrew from the side hall and returned to the Huosang Mountain Abode.

Leaving aside Elder Yao's reaction.

Having obtained the pill, Gu Qing naturally wanted to test its quality. If it was good, he would use it in the future.

Quiet room.

Gu Qing set up a small magic array at his own expense. This thing had almost no actual defensive effect; it could only block outsiders from spying on it.

It all depends on the visitors' self-discipline.

The disciples of Huosang Mountain rarely visit each other. Gu Qing has lived here for several years and has never even seen his neighbors. This is not because they are estranged, but rather a common phenomenon among high-level cultivators.

Most of the time is spent in seclusion or running around for resources for spiritual practice. Being able to sit at home, drink tea, and chat is a luxury.

"Azure Sea Pill".

Gu Qing summoned the Taotie head from his Niwan Palace, controlled it to swallow the pill, and injected his true essence into it, instantly activating the incomplete Devouring Divine Power.

The Azure Sea Pill, which ordinary cultivators would need a year to digest.

Under the effect of the Gluttonous Head, it was completely refined in just a quarter of an hour.

The boundless true essence, devoid of any attribute, flowed along the marrow path directly to the dantian.

The newly formed divine spring immediately shone brightly and expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Ten days later.

Awakening from her cultivation, Gu Qing smiled broadly.

With just one cultivation session, his true essence increased by one-fifth. The sheer vastness and power of Yanlong's true essence was already rare among those of the same level.

In ten days, the true essence of a normal cultivator doubles.

Bihai Dan's medicinal effects live up to its description.

Gu Qing used the Taotie head to condense a year's worth of time into ten days. Although the refining was fast, it still required time to stabilize and adapt to the surge in strength afterward.

Moreover, the Yanlong True Skill is a technique that cultivates both the physical body and the spiritual body.

True essence is one aspect of its method.

Such a sudden increase in size requires time to be reflected in the body, so it will take about twenty days to recover after taking one Bihai Pill.

One per month on average.

If one cultivates in this way for several years, one will eventually achieve the state of having a vast ocean of true essence.

Gu Qing believed that the Bihai Dan was excellent value for money, and even sold for a low price.

"Unfortunately, the Devouring Divine Power only has the part of refining and digesting, but lacks the part of swallowing."

"Moreover, we haven't even mastered the basics yet, and can only rely on this rare treasure to achieve the desired effect."

He has been researching the Devouring Divine Power for many years.

The fact that they couldn't even get through the door shows how difficult it was.

"Supernatural powers! Supernatural powers! What can I do but cry out in vain!"

I need to sort out my feelings.

Gu Qing turned her attention to the auxiliary cultivation techniques.

[Zhaoxia Purple Energy Policy]

The original form of this technique was the "One Qi Rising Sun Strategy," which was merely a foundation-building strategy to aid in the accumulation of internal energy, and its potential was almost exhausted. After all, Gu Qing couldn't possibly expect to advance a foundation-building technique to the seventh or even sixth rank by burning his lifespan.

The functions of this panel are quite reasonable.

Whether it's fusing martial arts techniques, cultivation methods, or even spells and Taoist arts, he can incorporate more to expand the meaning of the scriptures and increase the upper limit of deduction.

By integrating the strengths of various schools of thought, one can achieve self-improvement.

Therefore, expanding the breadth of the practice and its meaning actually raises its upper limit.

This conclusion applies only to Gu Qing.

The Purple Jade Dew extended his lifespan by thirty years, breaking through the upper limit, which he valued highly.

For it, I made a trip to the Sutra Repository in Baiyue Mountain.

While we're at it, let's expand our spells. Our existing spells are either fully mastered or perfected, so it's time to learn some new ones.

He's been in Baiyue Mountain for so long, but he's never been to the Sutra Repository.

However, he has already used up all his contribution points, so he needs to take on some weapon crafting tasks for a while before he can decide what to do next.

in this way.

Gu Qing then went to the weapon refining hall to cultivate in seclusion. He refined one Azure Sea Pill in a month, and spent the remaining twenty days refining weapons while waiting for his Qi Sea to calm down.

His weapon-refining skills had reached the level of a high-grade magic weapon, with a maximum of 12 patterns. Among the many deacons of the main hall, he was considered to be of a lower-middle level, but he was young.

There will be plenty of time to improve in the future.

The probability of becoming a seventh-grade weapon refiner is quite high.

Therefore, Gu Qing's business was considered one of the best even within the weapon-refining hall.

Most of the visitors are representatives of a certain faction.

Using the pretext of weapon crafting, they could probe Gu Qing's thoughts and try to recruit him into their faction.

Gu Qing was pleased with this change.

They use Elder Jiang as an excuse to shirk responsibility, but they never hesitate to take the benefits.

In general, there are seven factions in Baiyue Mountain.

Judging by one's birth background.

The five kingdoms of the mortal world are the five lineages, with the Southern Yue lineage being the other. Each faction is further divided into family factions, making the situation extremely complex.

There are also outstanding disciples like Gu Qing who have no powerful backers.

Once such a person has grown up, he will select one or a few disciples from among his many followers to become his personal disciples. This is the master-disciple faction, which is also the seventh major faction of Baiyue Mountain.

They are few in number but often possess exceptional skills.

They frequently engaged in exchanges of interests with various factions, and sometimes even took in disciples from other factions as their personal disciples to demonstrate their close relationship.

Gu Qing mainly managed relationships with the Yan Kingdom, focusing on the weapon-forging faction within the Sword Forging Pavilion.

Three months passed in this way.

With the Azure Sea Pill completely depleted, Gu Qing's Qi Sea Divine Spring expanded by more than three-fifths.

His cultivation level has increased dramatically, and there are already signs that it will transform into rivers.

The forging of high-grade magic artifacts takes even longer. Even for Gu Qing, it takes more than ten days to forge them. In three months, he forged a total of six high-grade magic artifacts.

All of them are converted into contribution points, totaling 300 points, averaging 50 points per item.

The price is not high, firstly because Gu Qing refines mostly high-grade magic artifacts with 12 patterns.

Secondly, since the material costs were covered by public funds, he needed to share a portion with the Refining Hall, and 50 points was his net income.

A superior magical artifact is converted into artifact points, starting with 150 points, and increasing by 5 points for each additional pattern.

It's not worthwhile to use it to accumulate points.

A medium-grade magic artifact with 6 patterns, costing 100 artifact points, can be completed in 3 to 4 days. This is the best way for Gu Qing to accumulate artifact points.

He had enough 300 contribution points to spend, so he came to the Sutra Repository of Baiyue Mountain for the first time.

This place is not only protected by array formations, but also guarded by many disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall. There are also highly respected elders inside the pavilion, and guards are stationed in the shadows.

Its regulations are far superior to those of the Sword Forging Manor.

Moreover, it is not a single pavilion, but a complex of buildings, collectively known as the Sutra Repository!
