Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 157 Purple Fire Gourd
Several monks from the Law Enforcement Hall looked behind Zhong Yue. The key to the matter lay with the other two people.

Based on their understanding of Zhong Yue, he could easily contain a late-stage Foundation Establishment monster for a short period of time, but killing it would be difficult! Almost impossible.

Could it be that the two opposing teammates have extremely powerful attack weapons?

Theoretically, if a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building uses a top-grade magic weapon and seizes the right opportunity, he can effectively kill monsters in the late stage of foundation building.

Han Qingshan felt embarrassed when being stared at and subconsciously shrank his head.

Ji An's expression was calm as he nodded in response to the inquiring gaze.

Human beings all admire the strong, and appropriately demonstrating one's abilities will gain more respect from others.

Several monks from the Law Enforcement Hall immediately understood who played a decisive role in this and responded with a smile.

Jia Yu took in everyone's performance. In his impression, Ji An was just a capable spiritual farmer. He didn't expect that the other party also had talent in fighting.

He coughed, drawing everyone's attention to himself, and continued:
"Tomorrow we will split into two groups. One group will cooperate with the Foundation Establishment cultivators to find the Black Wind Wolves hiding in the mountains. All teams without any Foundation Establishment cultivators killed will be included in this group.

Another group will survey the earth's veins and look for a location to place the array disk."

After the tasks were assigned, everyone dispersed.

Other monks from the Law Enforcement Hall came over to say hello, and Ji An responded one by one, becoming familiar with everyone.

Returning to the team's base, Zhong Yue said with high spirits:

"Recover your mana tonight and prepare well. There might be a tough battle tomorrow."

Han Qingshan shook his head and said:
"It's impossible for us to surround the entire Mingfeng Mountain. The clever wolf demons have mostly escaped tonight, so tomorrow's mission should be easy."

The battle during the day left him covered in dust and dirt, but fortunately, it was only a face-scarce injury and he was not injured at all.

Ji An said:

"Brother Zhong, which weapon refiner made your gourd magic weapon?

I think it's quite magical and I want one too."

Today's battle went quite smoothly. The many talismans in his storage bag were not used at all, and he only consumed one jar of spiritual wine to restore his mana.

Like Han Qingshan, he believed that tomorrow's battle should be easier, with scattered small-scale battles and nothing to prepare for.

"Brother, you have good taste!"

Zhong Yue took out the gourd magic weapon and showed off:
"This is the Fire Cloud Gourd, a top-grade magical weapon that I asked Senior Brother Zhao Lei from the Refining Hall to refine. The magical prohibitions engraved on it can nourish flames.

I happen to be practicing a fire-based technique, which allows me to store my own magical fire and release it all at once when fighting.

The longer it is nurtured, the more powerful the flame will be."

"Junior brother, you shouldn't be practicing the Fire Element Kung Fu. If you want to use the Fire Cloud Gourd, you'll have to find the Earth Lung Fire Vein yourself to absorb the Earth Fire, which will be quite troublesome."

Isn't this a coincidence?

Ji An grinned and said:
“There happens to be a fire vein in my cave, so it’s not difficult to collect the earth fire.

Senior Brother Zhao and I are quite familiar with each other. I will go talk to him when I return to the sect."

It is God’s will that this magical instrument is destined for me!
Zhong Yue raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile:
"That would be best, but the main ingredient is a purple fire gourd. If you want to refine it, I'm afraid you'll have to find the ingredients yourself."

He had heard from Senior Brother Zhao that refining magic tools was not particularly difficult, but the raw materials were rare.

Once when he was on a mission, he was lucky enough to harvest a mature, top-grade purple fire gourd, which enabled him to refine this top-grade magic weapon.

Ji An frowned slightly, recalling the information about the Purple Fire Gourd.

This is a vine-type fire-element spiritual plant, most of which can only grow to the first-grade superior quality.

Unlike spiritual trees, it is extremely difficult to cultivate this type of spiritual plant to a higher level. Planting ability is one aspect, and the potential of the seeds themselves is also very important.

Only when both are present can you grow top-quality gourds.

The purple fire gourd grows in a place with fire veins and has very demanding requirements for its growing environment. It cannot have too much fire spiritual energy, nor can it have too little fire spiritual energy.

The most crucial thing is that this kind of mediocre spiritual plant has not been cultivated by the sect, and it is probably difficult to find seeds in the Qinong Hall.

Ji An scratched his head and asked:

"Brother Zhong must have obtained the Purple Fire Gourd. Does he have any gourd seeds?"

A good cook cannot cook without rice. Without seeds to grow the materials, she can only guess at the problem of refining the Fire Cloud Gourd.

"Yes, let me look for it in a moment.

I almost forgot that my senior brother is a spiritual farmer. Maybe he can grow some usable purple fire gourds himself."

Zhong Yue immersed his consciousness into the storage bag and found a jade bottle about an inch high. He said rather embarrassedly:

“At that time, I obtained nearly a hundred seeds of the best-grade purple fire gourd. My friends wanted to refine the Fire Cloud Gourd, so we asked the spiritual farmer to help plant them.

As a result, not even a top-quality gourd was harvested.

Now there are only seven or eight seeds left, I will give them all to my senior brother."

Thinking about it now, he felt that he was extremely lucky to have gotten the top-quality gourd.

He was not optimistic about whether the other party could grow top-quality gourds.

A friend with connections once asked Senior Brother Lin Mao for help with planting. Lin Mao was one of the only two spiritual farmers in the sect who was in the late foundation-building stage.

Ji An took the jade bottle, poured out the seeds and checked them, and found that the vitality of the seeds was already very weak.

The preservation of each spiritual seed requires a specific method. The other party is not a spiritual farmer and does not care much about preserving the seeds, which leads to the current result.

However, being able to obtain the seeds was a pleasant surprise. After returning, he could try to cultivate them for a few more generations to see if he could be lucky enough to cultivate top-quality gourds.

Ji An pinched his fingers and released the Green Wood Transformation Technique. Emerald green light flew around his palm and slowly seeped into the seed.

The seeds are nourished and their vitality is restored.

The vigorous vitality spread slightly, and Zhong Yue felt as if he was in a dense forest after the rain, with wild grass taking root and sprouting under his feet.

Han Qingshan's eyes suddenly widened. His Jade Wood Incarnation Technique had also reached perfection, but the power contained in his spells was significantly different from his opponent's. 'Such an outstanding spiritual farmer has appeared in our sect, and how come I haven't heard a single word about it!'

The spell in Ji An's hand changed, releasing a fire spell, and a warm red light enveloped the seed.

I saw the dark red skin of the gourd seeds, slightly flashing with light, like a small piece of red-hot iron.

"Brother, what a great trick!"

Zhong Yue praised. Although he didn't understand planting, he could feel the magic intent contained in the spell, which did not affect his applause.

Ji An put away the seeds, took out a jar of spirit wine, and said with a smile:

"Thank you, Senior Brother. I won't accept this gift without merit. This jar of spiritual wine can speed up the recovery of mana, which is quite useful to us. Please accept it."

It is impolite not to reciprocate. If someone gives you something, of course you should give something in return.

In this way, when the other person gets something good in the future, he or she will still remember you.

“No, no, no,” Zhong Yue waved his hands hastily, declining.

"These seeds are like pearls thrown into the dark in my hands. It is difficult to cultivate high-level gourds from the Purple Fire Gourd. They are not worth any spirit stones."

He originally wanted to make friends with the other party. These seeds were useless in his hands. Wouldn't it be a deal if he accepted the spiritual wine?
Ji An took out another jar of spirit wine, handed it to Han Qingshan, and said with a smile:
"Today we have the good fortune to fight side by side. This spiritual wine is a gift from me to you two senior brothers. Please accept it as a token of my heart."

……

The next day.

Ji An led his disciples to patrol the mountains. From time to time, they found some usable spiritual herbs on the way, which were carefully picked by everyone.

For those elixirs that have not reached their age, a wooden stick is inserted nearby as a mark.

Occasionally they would encounter some fleeing wolf demons, which were also small demons in the Qi Refining Stage, and they were quickly killed by everyone.

Zhong Yue sighed to the sky and shouted:
"Why can't we meet a strong monster? At least let us stretch our muscles!"

The materials from the wolf demon killed today will be counted as contribution points for the team members.

Han Qingshan whispered softly:

"I think it's great, why do we have to make it so exciting?"

Yesterday he was besieged by two Black Wind Wolves in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Although he did not suffer any injuries, he still felt frightened when the monsters' claws scratched the protective aura of his magic weapon.

Ji An pointed to the front and said:
"Once we pass that huge rock, let's take a break."

……

Ge Luoying was chasing a black wind wolf in the late foundation building stage. The monster was covered in blood and sword wounds.

Faced with the threat of death, the Black Wind Wolf pushed its speed to the extreme, running wildly in panic without choosing a route.

The name of the monster contains the word "wind", which means it is fast enough. In addition, some gifted ones can awaken the wind magic talent.

This black wind wolf is a creature of extraordinary talent, otherwise it would not have been able to fight with the sword cultivator for such a long time.

Groying consumed a lot of mana and couldn't catch up for a while.

But she was not impatient. The monster had obviously unleashed its potential, but its speed was not sustainable, and it would be killed by her sword sooner or later.

At this time, walking slowly can actually give you time to regulate your breathing and restore some of your magic power.

She had already killed more than ten high-level monsters, and her magic power had been greatly consumed. Now she could give herself a chance to catch her breath.

Suddenly, she saw a large group of monks from the sect appearing in the direction where the monster was fleeing, and she couldn't help feeling a little anxious.

The team that is acting together today are all disciples in the Qi Refining Stage, led by two or three cultivators in the early Foundation Establishment Stage.

Now that the Black Wind Wolf has unleashed its potential, it is probably not something that a few cultivators in the early stages of foundation building can resist.

"careful!"

Ge Luoying gave a warning and urged the sword to speed up.

She wouldn't care if someone got hurt, but she was afraid that her junior fellow apprentice would laugh at her if the monster she was chasing would still have the chance to hurt someone.

She has a brilliant junior fellow student, and she is under a lot of pressure.

In the past, she tried hard not to be surpassed by the other party in cultivation, but now she tries hard not to fall too far behind the other party.

……

Zhong Yue grinned. Just now he was telling others that it was boring not to encounter any monsters, and now a big gift came.

Judging from the demonic energy emitted by the Black Wind Wolf, it was another demonic beast in the late Foundation Establishment stage, and its aura was stronger than the one they killed yesterday.

At this moment, he heard the clear voice of the female cultivator, "Be careful!"

How could he be careful at this time? He could have moved out of the way, but the Black Wind Wolf was too fast, and the group of Qi Refining disciples behind him had no time to dodge.

He urged the Fire Cloud Gourd forward and shouted:

"Brother Ji, I'll feint and you'll attack!"

"clear."

Ji An agreed, unleashed his Wind Control Technique, and flew close to Zhong Yue, forming a pincer attack.

The Black Wind Wolf opened its bloody mouth and roared. At this moment, it just wanted to escape quickly.

If there is no one blocking it, it will not attack.

The Fire Cloud Gourd glowed brightly red, and the golden flame pattern seemed to come alive. A ball of fire cloud covered the Black Wind Wolf, who did not dodge or avoid it.

The Black Wind Wolf leaped up and pounced towards Zhong Yue, spewing out an invisible gust of wind, and its innate spell, Wind Roar, was activated.

The fire cloud was split into two halves and bypassed the body of the black wind wolf. Its sharp fangs flashed with a cold light.
