longevity road trip

People are refreshed on happy occasions, and after practicing wholeheartedly for a month, Zhang Shiping successfully broke through the seventh level of Qi training.

……

After guarding the Flint Chamber for a year, Zhang Shiping pushed open the stone door of the Shishi Room. After the handover, he followed the monk who guarded the mountain and established the foundation of Chili Peak and left.

The disciples of Zhengyangzong who are on duty in the Huofeng stone room during the Qi training period are changed every year. Zhang Shiping has a bronze lamp to help him in the stone room, and the accumulation of fire poison is very small, but he does not intend to go out of his way. task.

……

Zhang Shiping drove the flying magic weapon to fly in mid-air, thinking about the future. The abundant fire aura in the ground fire chamber was of great help to him, a three-yang spirit body. After feeling the fire aura for so long, Zhang Shiping had a deeper understanding of the fire aura. .

Just as Zhang Shiping was thinking about his future practice, he was flying over the undulating green hills and dense forests. There were more than a dozen figures in the air driving the flying magic weapon, flying in different directions.

The two people closest to each other are also more than ten feet away, and the two people who are not familiar with each other subconsciously keep a good distance between them.Zhang Shiping looked in front of him, there were two black dots, they were two monks who were far away from him.

One person saw Zhang Shiping, felt his back was very familiar, chased from behind, kept a distance of seven or eight feet, and shouted: "The one in front is Brother Zhang." The voice was a little hoarse, as if someone was strangling the neck sound.

Hearing an unfamiliar voice, Zhang Shiping turned his head and saw that it was a scar with several animal claws on his face. After the scabs fell off, he still looked like a red centipede lying on his face. Zhang Shiping felt that this person It looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was, so he stopped and stood in mid-air.

"You are, are you Lin Qing?" Zhang Shiping asked uncertainly after looking over all the people he had met in his mind.

The man touched the scar on his face and said with a wry smile: "It's me, I don't know where Brother Zhang has been this year, why there is no news at all."

"I stayed in the Chili Peak Stone Chamber for a year, and I just came back today after handing over the mission. I don't know what you are, Fellow Daoist Lin..." Zhang Shiping said.A year ago, Lin Qingke was still a handsome young man with a face like a crown of jade, with a rich spirit like a jade, why did he change so much after a year.

Lin Qing and Zhang Shiping drove the magic weapon to fly together, and they chatted for a long time.Lin Qing accepted the mission of the Pingxitan Spirit Rice Field with a few people he knew well after half a year. After two months of peace and stability, he didn't want to meet a tiger who had to meet a fairy fate and ate a tiger in the mountains. Zhu Guo became a second-order monster, and his ferocity exploded.

Lin Qing and others were waiting for the planting monks of Lingdaotian, but they were attacked by the second-rank tiger monster, and suffered a big loss from the beginning.

"Do you remember Fellow Daoist Lei? My wife and I were attacked by the tiger demon. In order to protect his wife, Fellow Daoist Lei was torn apart by the tiger demon. When Uncle rushed over, the tiger demon had already bit my throat." Lin Qing raised his head, there was a scar on his neck, which hurt his vocal cords, no wonder his voice was so hoarse.

Zhang Shiping listened with sympathy.

Zhang Shiping expected Lei Daoyou's wife to be very sad.

Lin Qing showed displeasure on his face, "Your Daoist Lei died trying to save his wife, but after only two months since Fellow Daoist Lei left, he followed a sect's foundation-building cultivator. It's really worthless for you Daoist Lei." If Fellow Daoist Lei hadn't delayed that little bit of time, he wouldn't have been able to wait for the sect's Foundation Establishment cultivator to arrive. Half of this life was saved by Fellow Daoist Lei. He thought that Fellow Daoist Lei was dead, so he would He replied this kindness to his wife, but the development of the matter was beyond his expectation.

In order to divert the unpleasant topic, Zhang Shiping asked what happened this year.

Lin Qing talked about the fact that the sect selected thousands of disciples from the secular world in March this year. Among the thousands of disciples, a boy with a different spiritual root came out. The lightning attribute has a spiritual root, and the thunder attribute spells burst more quickly than the five element spells. The monks of the same level fight more With a three-point victory, he was placed under the head of Chang Younian.

Zhang Shiping and Lin Qing belonged to the lineage of Jindan cultivator Ma Hua, but these two didn't even establish a foundation. There were tens of thousands of such disciples, one more was not many, and one less was quite a lot.

There is also a girl from the Xiuxian family surnamed Xie, who has an ice-type alien spirit root. A Jindan ancestor in the sect came forward to accept the girl as a true disciple. I don’t know how many people in the sect are envious of this matter. .

Zhang Shiping is also very envious. What is a true disciple is a disciple who inherits the mantle. With the full training of the Golden Core cultivator, there is no shortage of spiritual stones, elixir, magic tools, and exercises, so there is no need to worry about cultivation resources.

In this way, coupled with the already excellent aptitude, how can one not practice fast?

Lin Qing said hoarsely, "I heard that this girl is from the same family as the ancestor of Jindan." Zhang Shiping suddenly realized, and the two smiled at each other.

Halfway through the flight, Lin Qing and Zhang Shiping separated. Lin Qing still had the task assigned by the monk who established the foundation of the medicine garden. Before leaving, Lin Qing told Zhang Shiping to visit him often when he was free. .

Zhang Shiping recorded that when he flew to his original small courtyard, he found that there were people living in it, so he found another house nearby that seemed to have been forgotten for a long time, and hastily sorted out a house to live in.

Anyone can live in the house on this mountain as long as the formation restriction is not activated. Zhang Shiping has been away for a year, and he has already picked out a spirit stone from the formation before leaving. Now that there is a newcomer, it is normal.

Chapter 16 Baitaifang City

In the evening, the dusk was heavy.

Under the lamp, Zhang Shiping was sitting cross-legged on the futon, but unexpectedly he was not practicing.He was counting the things in his storage bag. He wiped it from the storage bag, and he held a triangular flag in his hand. He shook his head. This is the first level that his family rewarded him when he practiced Qi. The black wind flag, a low-grade magic weapon, is made of first-order black-spotted silk, which can be used to cover one's body, but it is no longer suitable for him who is already in the late stage of Qi training.

Putting the Black Wind Flag in front of him, he then took out two talisman pens, one was a gold pen that had been used for a long time, the tip of the pen was already half bald, and needed to be repaired with the hair of a metallic monster. Leave it alone.The other one is a jade slip obtained by exchanging with someone else, a Qinghao pen made according to the method, and now he uses this talisman pen to make talismans.

For low-level spells, there is not much demand for the attributes of the talisman pen, but sometimes the fireball talisman is drawn with a water attribute talisman pen, and the effect is even worse, as the five elements interact and restrain each other.

Zhang Shiping didn't pick up the weapons that he could get when he entered Zhengyangzong. These weapons are all mundane swords, and then he carved a sharp front formation on it, or added some formations that can emit cold and heat.Magic weapons in the mundane world are actually completely worthless, just give Zhang Shiping a weapon, and he can carve a rough formation on it himself.

The first-order middle-grade flying magic weapon was very small before the mana was input, only slightly bigger than his palm, and was played by Zhang Shiping in his hand.The rest of the storage bag is just some materials needed for talisman making, dozens of painted talismans, and a bottle containing the eight Bingxin pills he saved, and more than a dozen books collected and recorded by Zhang Shiping. Several jade slips and a prescription for pills.

He didn't use half a spirit stone in Chili Peak for a year, and the fire spirit energy in the stone room was abundant. All the spirit stones he received over the year were put in the storage bag. Small piles of spirit stones of various colors piled together, these are all the spirit stones on his body, Zhang Shiping felt an inexplicable peace of mind.

These spirit stones are enough to buy a good first-grade high-grade magic weapon. The nearby square market buys daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. There are not many high-grade artifacts of low-grade and middle-grade ones. Zhang Shiping once went to choose, but he couldn't find a suitable one. Since he didn't have much time to guard the Huofeng Stone Room, the purchase of magic artifacts was put on hold for now.

There are several Dafang cities that are close to Zhengyangzong, and Baitaifang City is one of them. It is seventy miles away from the border of Zhengyangzong's gate. In addition to Zhengyangzong disciples, there are many casual practitioners and family members who come and go. When the monks came over, there were also sect disciples from Qiyunzong Xuanhuomen and other sects who came to buy and sell in disguise.Zhang Shiping counted the number of spirit stones in his storage bag, thinking about it.

Hearing Lin Qing say that a girl surnamed Xie was directly accepted as a disciple by the ancestor of Jindan, and immediately made a true biography, I believe it will not be like him, a spirit stone will be torn in half.Even the thunder-attribute boy who was taken under the head of the sect would not lack any spirit stones!

Zhang Shiping sighed, put away the magic weapon he had taken out, and walked around the courtyard. The courtyard had been uninhabited for a long time, and the ground was full of fallen and dead leaves. When the mountain wind blew, leaves were everywhere.

Zhang Shiping quickly picked up his mood and returned to the room, arranged the formation, and started the boring practice, mana was accumulating in the dantian.

It's half a moon tonight, with dark clouds and dim moonlight, until after dawn, the sun rises and shines brightly.

Zhang Shiping blew out the bronze lamp, packed it up, and drove the flying magic weapon to the steward of the Foreign Affairs Hall to get a token that allowed him to go out of the mountain. On the way, he stopped by the gray-clothed and yellow-faced old man in Baicao Garden and sat for a while. He brought a jug of spring water.

Because Zhang Shiping heard from the old man that there is a small mountain near Chili Peak, and there is a sweet spring on the top of the mountain.The old and the young sat for a while and said something, and Zhang Shiping bid farewell to the old man.

……

In the south of Zhengyangzong, on the high mountains, Zhang Shiping flew for nearly a hundred miles in one breath, stopped to drink water by the waterfall, rested for a while and went on the road again, just like this stop and go, Zhang Shiping soon arrived outside Fangshi on a hill.

In the valley is a square city called Baitai.

There are mountain peaks on three sides, and a large formation of forbidden space is arranged above the canyon, and a layer of phantom formation is arranged. When Zhang Shiping overlooks the valley from the top of the mountain, he only sees old trees and dense forests, overlapping, without any human habitation.

He took out a bright eye talisman, and the talisman flashed in front of his eyes. Zhang Shiping's eyes were full of light, and the spiritual light flickered in his eyes. Only then did he see the formation below the valley like a pot cover covering the entire valley, and he flew along the valley formation. After half a circle, we found the entrance.

The entrance is between two willow trees with thousands of branches hanging down. As soon as he entered within ten feet of the willow trees, there was a thick fog in front of his eyes. Zhang Shiping increased the mana gathered in his eyes by one point, prolonging the effect of the eyesight talisman, and the fog in front of his eyes After a few minutes, the formation revealed a hole just enough to pass through people. Zhang Shiping walked a [-]-meter-long road.

The layout of many shops in Baitaifang City is according to the terrain. In the middle of the valley is a small river about two feet wide, and many shops are built not far from the river.

There are three wooden arch bridges in the middle of the river for traffic on both sides.

Here Zhang Shiping saw a lot of loose cultivators dressed in different styles, either in groups of seven or eight, or with one or two companions, and there were also many solitary monks, wearing cloaks and hats, and some people covered themselves with potions true appearance.

When many people passed by Zhang Shiping, they glanced out of the corner of their eyes. Zhang Shiping didn't know what was going on at first, and he didn't think it was strange until a few more people looked at Zhang Shiping from the corner of their eyes, as if with unclear mean in.

He suddenly realized that, looking all the way here, he didn't find anyone wearing Zongmen costumes, no matter whether it was Zhengyangzong or Qiyunzong Xuanhuomen, there were not half of them. Zhang Shiping's face was ugly, and he felt that he was looking at prey!

This place is no different from the towns inside the Zongmen, where people and snakes are mixed together. Zhang Shiping walked quickly, and at a corner, seeing that no one was coming, he took out a set of clothes from the storage bag, and took off the black clothes of Zhengyang Zong's outer disciples. , Replace it in twos and threes.

Zhang Shiping checked himself up and down again to see if there was anything with an identity mark, and he came out with peace of mind after there was nothing unusual.

He intends to buy a first-grade high-grade magic weapon that can be used in the later stage of Qi training. Naturally, he will choose some big shops. The chances of buying a first-level high-grade magic weapon at a casual repair stall are too small. If it doesn't work, I have to say something else.

Instead of wasting this time, it's better to run directly to the shops. Zhang Shiping came to Baitaifang City for the first time, and he didn't know which one was good, so he had to look at each one first.

"Emerald Store."

"Wanbao Pavilion."

"Qiyuzhai."

"Tiangong shop."

……

He looked around one by one until he saw a shop coming and going, and several people came in and out. In the lobby on the first floor, there were also four or five people who were waiting for the monks who were looking at the elixirs and magic tools.

Chapter 17 Bao Ruizhai

Zhang Shiping stopped outside and looked at the high-hanging plaque. The word "Baoruizhai" was written in gold letters on a black background, and exquisite cloud patterns were carved on the four sides of the plaque.Just when he looked up at the name of the shop, a handsome maid with a slender waist and tight waist came forward to greet him, and said with a grin, "this senior is standing outside, why don't you please move to Baorui fast."

"Okay." Zhang Shiping nodded. The female cultivator on the opposite side has only one level of Qi training, and her mana and spiritual pressure are very shallow. There are many shops recruiting young girls and boys from the secular world. It makes people feel like spring breeze.Most of these people do not have spiritual roots, and the few who have spiritual roots are also pseudo-spiritual roots such as four spiritual roots and five spiritual roots.

The girl in front should be such a pseudo-spiritual root monk. A monk at the first level of Qi training is no worse than the so-called first-class masters in the secular world. A word of resentment.

Zhang Shiping followed the maid into the Baoruizhai. Others hadn't noticed how big the place inside was just now. In the hall of the shop stood eight thick white jade pillars. Zhang Shiping took a rough glance at all kinds of materials for cultivating immortals. They are as small as red sand and yellow paper for making talismans, spiritual wood and silver charcoal for alchemy, blank array flags for array formations, and all kinds of monster and elixir materials. There are three-legged and four-legged alchemy tripods, swords, axes, axes, ropes and iron chains that glow with cold light, and many other magical weapons of different shapes, which Zhang Shiping has never seen before.

Zhang Shiping thought in his heart that he came to the right place, with such a complete set of things, he must be able to find the magic weapon he wants, if the price is right, he will buy his top-grade magic weapon here.

Zhang Shiping only saw some people outside just now, but there were 17 people inside, two by two separated by a certain distance, and next to him was a good-looking maidservant who was explaining in a soft voice, some nodded from time to time, and some pointed After buying something else, there was another person in the hall who was going to the quiet room with a smile in his eyes, and he didn't know what he was looking for?

Zhang Shiping was not in a hurry to find a high-grade magic weapon. What is a sale? Buying and selling are called buying and selling. Whoever is in a hurry will suffer.He walked forward and watched, and the servant girl followed behind. When Zhang Shiping did not stop, she was behind him. When Zhang Shiping stopped and looked at something, the maidservant explained softly beside him.

Let’s not talk about the value of things, the service alone, this Baoruizhai’s is much better than his Zhang’s, Zhang Shiping is thinking in his heart whether he should choose some people from the secular tribe after he goes back, so as to teach him, the shop’s Business should improve somewhat.

Zhang Shiping turned around, and finally stopped in front of a first-grade high-grade magic weapon in the shape of a treasured sword. The maid said softly, "Senior, this sword is a first-grade high-grade magic weapon, named Luo Jun Sword, with a three-foot blade. Three, the net weight is six catties and four taels, and it is made of deep-sea volcanic iron and blue flint, which was forged under the real fire during the foundation building period for three days and three nights."

Zhang Shiping pointed to a black hexagonal shield, crystal clear like black crystal.

"This shield is a first-order medium-grade magic weapon, named the Black Crystal Shield, which weighs four catties and three ounces. It is made of Hanjiang black crystal stone. I asked the master of the formation to do it. Formation, can attack and defend."

There were several magical artifacts on the shelf in front, two of which were pagoda-shaped artifacts, Zhang Shiping raised his hand, telling the handsome maid to take him to the quiet room without further introduction.

The maid smiled happily and led the way in front, leading Zhang Shiping up to the second floor. The second floor is divided into four rooms, with an aisle in the middle, and the rooms are far away from each other. With the arrangement of formations, the sound inside the room can't penetrate the outside at all. .

The maid took Zhang Shiping to an unoccupied quiet room, inside was a set of antique tables and chairs, on the hall was a picture of pine cranes for thousands of years, and in the hall was a cylindrical copper furnace with exquisite flower and bird patterns. Wisps of cigarettes smelled elegant, and fruits were placed on the table. The maid led Zhang Shiping to take a seat, and immediately behind him was another maid who came up with fragrant tea.

The maid asked Zhang Shiping to wait for a while, and she went out slowly.

Zhang Shiping picked up the teacup, the scented tea smelled like a lotus, it was not as good as the one-bud tea after the rain made by the gray-shirted and yellow-faced old man, but it was good tea.

Zhang Shiping took a sip to moisten his throat, and there was the sound of footsteps outside, and a middle-aged man who came in was wearing a white Confucian robe and looked naturally friendly.After he came in, the quiet room was closed by itself, and at the same time a formation was raised.

"My servant, Wu Lin, is the treasurer of Baorui Zhai. I don't know the name of the guest officer?"

The other party was so humble and polite, Zhang Shiping didn't take it too seriously, he stood up and saluted the other party and said: "Miangui's surname is Zhang."

"It turned out to be Fellow Daoist Zhang, please sit down." Wu Lin greeted Zhang Shiping, "Seeing that Fellow Daoist looks very face-to-face, is this the first time you have come to my Baorui Zhai?"

"It's indeed the first time for me to come here." Zhang Shiping didn't hide anything, he was indeed here for the first time, and businessmen would remember him somewhat to the guests.

"I don't know what Fellow Daoist Zhang likes, no matter what monster elixir or magic weapon, if I don't have it in Baoruizhai, then you won't be able to find it in other shops in Baitaifang City. "Wu Lin, the treasurer of Baoruizhai, said what he said with full confidence, and he didn't know if it was true or false.

This kind of thing is easy to hear. If Baoruizhai can really do this, there won't be so many shops in Fangshi.Zhang Shiping said what he needed, a first-tier high-grade magic weapon suitable for fire attribute monks.

After listening to what Zhang Shiping said, shopkeeper Wu said it was easy to say, he took out the bell, shook it lightly, called the maid who was waiting outside, and said a few words, the maid came back to the quiet room shortly after returning, holding a wooden tray in her hand There are three brocade boxes on it.

The maid put the brocade box on the table and withdrew. Shopkeeper Wu reached out and turned the wooden tray, and pushed it close to Zhang Shiping. Looking at shopkeeper Wu's confident look, the magic weapon in the brocade box must be extraordinary.

Shopkeeper Wu opened the first brocade box, and there was a small finger-long sword inside, which was the same shape as the Luo Jun sword that Zhang Shiping saw on the first floor just now, but the size was different.Zhang Shiping knew that this should be the Luo Jun sword. If the magic weapon is not blessed with mana, it will become the same.

Sure enough, shopkeeper Wu introduced it in the same way.

Zhang Shiping proposed to try out this long sword, and he was [-]% satisfied in the hall.

"Naturally, fellow Daoist Zhang, please do as you please." Shopkeeper Wu said.

Zhang Shiping took out the long sword in the brocade box. As soon as his own mana was input, the small sword that grew with one finger instantly turned into a three-foot-three Qingfeng long sword. Zhang Shiping drove the magic weapon a few times, then retracted the mana and put down the Luo Jun sword .

Zhang Shiping didn't have a fever to grab it. Let's not talk about whether there are foundation-building monks in this huge shop. The shopkeeper Wu opposite is a master of Qi training level nine. Zhang Shiping can clearly know that he hasn't restrained his spiritual pressure.

Zhang Shiping asked the price again, and shopkeeper Wu said a price, which was within Zhang Shiping's acceptable price.

For Luo Junjian, Zhang Shiping is already very satisfied. The first-level top-grade magic weapon, the type of flying sword, the fire-attributed material used, and the attributes match.

Satisfied in his heart, Zhang Shiping didn't show his face, and turned to look at the second brocade box.

Chapter 18 Sword and Fan

Shopkeeper Wu looked at Zhang Shiping's eyes on the second brocade box in the middle, and he didn't hold back, he opened the copper clasp of the brocade box with a "click", and a small fan was in the brocade box, and the unfolded fan was facing Zhang Shiping. .

The surface of the fan, woven with second-order spider silk, is golden yellow like the bright moon.

"This is a first-order top-grade magic weapon, the Heavenly Wind Burning Flower Fan. The fan bones are made of black iron and three coins of flame gold, and the fan surface is woven with second-order spider silk. In Ziyansha, the monks who established the foundation with the innate fire and martial arts are refined, the wind supports the fire, the fire borrows the wind, and the wind and fire are born together. There are few first-level magic weapons that can compare with it." Wu shopkeeper said, between words Very sure of the power of the Tianfeng Zhuohua Fan, Zhang Shiping is also the first time he has seen a first-order top-grade magic weapon, so he can't help but take a few more glances.

The first-order top-grade magic weapon is actually the product of a monk who failed to refine the second-order magic weapon. Usually, there was a mistake in the refining of materials or the formation of a certain aspect. The next best thing is to forge and refine it into a first-order magic weapon.And because this kind of magic weapon is more powerful than the top-grade magic weapon, it is called the best in the world of cultivating immortals.

"I don't know if this Tianfengzhuohua fan can enter Zhang Daoyou's eyes?" Shopkeeper Wu looked at Zhang Shiping, took out the fan and input mana in his hand, and the fan became normal size. The bookish shopkeeper Wu held the fan in his hand. , Gently shaking the fan slowly, showing a bit more elegant and easy-going.

After making a circle in his hand, shopkeeper Wu handed the fan to Zhang Shiping casually. At this time, a monk's spiritual consciousness in the foundation building period swept across him without any concealment. His expression remained unchanged, Zhang Shiping looked at the other party, and immediately understood in his heart that this was the Foundation Establishment cultivator in the shop.

Zhang Shiping accepted the fan as if nothing had happened, and input mana into the fan, the mana in his dantian poured out like a gate, he quickly cut off the mana, without mana, it turned into a small handful.

This top-grade magic weapon requires too much mana, shopkeeper Wu looked at Zhang Shiping with a smile, Zhang Shiping stopped decisively, and did not input mana into it.

"I made the shopkeeper laugh." Zhang Shiping put the fan back, and seeing that shopkeeper Wu was about to open the third brocade box, he reached out his hand to stop him and said, "Don't bother, I like Luo Junjian very much, so let's leave it at that."

"Daoyou Zhang, are you sure? Shopkeeper Wu asked.

"Yes." Zhang Shiping also asked the price of the Tianfeng Zhuohua Fan, shopkeeper Wu quoted a price, which was twice as expensive as Luo Junjian, which made Zhang Shiping speechless.

The first brocade box is a top-grade magic weapon, the second is a top-grade magic weapon, so isn't the third one a second-level magic weapon used by foundation-building monks?Zhang Shiping didn't look at it at all, he couldn't afford it anyway, so why bother, this Luo Jun sword was enough.

Zhang Shiping touched the storage bag with his palm, and a pile of spirit stones appeared in front of shopkeeper Wu, "Treasurer Wu can count it to see the number, right?"

Shopkeeper Wu scanned the pile of spirit stones with his spiritual sense, counted the number in an instant, picked up the storage bag and aimed at the spirit stones, and after putting them all in, he handed the brocade box containing Luo Junjian to Zhang Shiping, and said with a smile: " I don’t know what else Zhang Daoyou needs?”

Zhang Shiping accepted the brocade box, walked out of the quiet room with shopkeeper Wu one after the other, and went downstairs.On the first floor, Zhang Shiping bought some talisman paper and red sand that he needed. He also bought a few blank formation disks and formation flags, as well as a piece of jade slip called "The First Explanation of the Formation" and a few pieces that recorded how to arrange them. The jade slips that are commonly used in first-order formations, just these small things plus Luo Junjian, left Zhang Shiping with a dozen or so spirit stones in his storage bag, all of which were fire-attributed spirit stones, and he specially selected the remaining ones.
