Longevity begins with Zongmen handyman

Chapter 22 Spirit Beast Mountain Range
Go back to your residence.

Li An was still a little depressed.

He actually got himself into a hole...

"Tan Qingxue's personal contribution points are estimated to be no more than [-] points, which must be much less than Sun Lin..."

"She is no longer Sun Lin's opponent in the talisman hall, so she can only fight in other ways."

"The second-grade elixir can be exchanged for thousands of contribution points, but going to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range... is somewhat risky."

In fact, Li An had paid attention to the news of the Spirit Beast Mountain Range. Since the Battle of Lingzhi Mountain, the Hundred Beasts Sect had not disturbed the Xuanyang Sect Headquarters, and the Spirit Beast Mountain Range had returned to normal and was no longer as dangerous as before.

Many low-level disciples poured into it, and gained a lot. In the past year, it was rare to hear of disciples being injured or killed in it.

Going to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, as long as he doesn't venture into those dangerous places, and with his own experience, Li An can almost guarantee his own safety.

But he is more averse to risks. After all, he is doing well in Futang, and he has a long life span. He can break through step by step. How wonderful...

However, Li An was quite happy after displaying the newly obtained high-quality talisman pen and talisman paper.

The high-quality talisman pen is made of special white jade and spirit wolf hair, and a simple bird rune is engraved on the body of the pen.

The perception and depiction of the avenue will be more accurate with the high-quality talisman pen!

As for the high-quality talisman paper, there are a total of seventy pieces, each of which is as white as snow, delicate and heavy in texture, and is made after many processes.

——Originally, even a first-tier middle-grade talisman master only issued [-] talisman papers every month, and Li An bought the extra [-] talisman papers for two spirit stones.

After all, it is necessary to make more preparations to go to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range!
"Going to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range, chance is not important, the key is to be able to retreat safely when encountering danger."

Ang Lee had an idea.

"Cold Rain Talisman, an upgraded version of the Cold Wind Talisman, a control rune that can slow down the enemy's movement speed to a greater extent!"

"Speed ​​Talisman, which can greatly increase the running speed for a short period of time, it is very good for escaping!"

"In addition, you can also refine some of the land trap talisman and thorn talisman! They are all helpful to save your life."

Holding the heavy fine-quality talisman brush, he concentrated his attention carefully, and the super-sensing formula worked to the extreme, and every subtle change of the brushstroke became very clear in his eyes.

He started to use the pen, and the ink on the snow-white talisman paper outlined the Dao symbols one after another.

The first talisman paper was only half drawn before it was damaged.

However, Li An was not discouraged, which is already very good!
He used up fourteen talisman papers in a row, and only on the 15th sheet, he finally drew a speed run talisman!

"Speed ​​Talisman, the effective time is only 3 minutes, one is not enough!"

Li An was quite happy.

3 minutes, you can do a lot of things in battle, but when you are running for your life, the distance you can escape is not that far.

He continued to draw symbols.

……

That night, he used up [-] talisman papers, and drew a total of three speeding talismans!

The success rate is far less than one in ten.

The first-order middle-grade talisman of the Speedy Talisman costs about one spirit stone per piece, and even if they are all sold, they can only barely keep their capital!

This is still due to his previous life experience. If it is someone else, the success rate will be lower, and the effort is far greater than the harvest, and it is simply unaffordable.

It's no wonder that Tan Qingxue felt that it was useless for Li An to apply for the high-quality talisman pen talisman paper.

"It will be slower to get used to it at the beginning, and it will not be difficult to increase the success rate later..."

Li An is already quite satisfied. His current spiritual root sensitivity can protect his capital from the beginning, which is already good.

After finishing all this, he continued to start his own "iron sand bath"!
In half a year, Li An's skin faded and regenerated countless times.

He can already enter the iron sand calmly without feeling any pain!

Grabbing a piece of iron sand casually, I saw that the iron sand has become almost as smooth as a ball.

"The first batch of iron sand is almost used up."

Li An whispered, and at the same time took a dagger beside him - not a star dagger, but an ordinary iron dagger.

He grabbed the dagger and held it firmly, there was no blood on his hand at all, instead there was a sound like metal rubbing in the palm of his hand, and the dagger was directly crushed by his palm!

"The first layer of Iron Tree Jue, the 'iron skin' is basically refined!"

He is very satisfied!
At the same time, he looked inside, and in the dantian, the third leaf was completely stretched out.

In another half a year, the third level of Qi training will be complete, and then hit the fourth level of Qi training!
……

The next day, Li An first went to the Artifact Refining Hall to find Wang Dazhu.

"Brother An, the silver sand you want may have to wait for a while... It's too difficult to get this kind of thing."

Wang Dazhu's body shape became more stocky, his skin was dark and rosy, and his blood was very vigorous.

Moreover, he is about to break through to the fifth level of Qi Refining.

Li An entrusted Wang Dazhu to help refine the spiritual silver sand, which is the second layer of the Iron Tree Jue, which is needed for meat training.

"It's okay, Da Zhu, how's the matter with the storage bag?"

"Here, I asked Master to refine it... only charge the cost price, 20 Yuan Lingshi."

Wang Dazhu took out a brand new storage bag and handed it to Li An.

Li An took the storage bag, checked it, and was very satisfied!

The low-level storage bag can hold items one meter square, which is enough for Li An.

——The storage bag is more convenient to access and store items. He is now refining the first-level middle-grade talismans. There are a lot of them, and they are easy to be found on the body.

"Okay, Dazhu, thank you!"

Li An immediately took out 20 yuan of spirit stones from the bag, handed them to Wang Dazhu, and gave him ten additional flame symbols, saying: "Dazhu, please pass on some thoughts to Master Yu for me."

Wang Dazhu grinned, "Alright, Brother An, Master Yu said, just tell him if you need anything in the future."

In the past two years, Li An went to the Refining Hall to buy iron sand for body refining privately many times. After each purchase at a low price, he would give some talismans to Wang Dazhu as a gift to his master.

So I got the master's favor.

After all, after bypassing the sect, Li An bought it cheaply, and Master Yu also sold it cheaply.

There is no middleman to make the difference.

This kind of thing is of course strictly prohibited by the Zongmen, but in private matters, it is normal to turn a blind eye to it.

The main reason is that this kind of situation will not be rampant. Generally, only acquaintances who have established a relationship of trust dare to conduct this kind of transaction. Some trivial matters will not affect the overall interests of Xuanyangzong.

……

After wearing the storage bag, Li An felt much more comfortable, and finally he didn't have to carry a burden everywhere.

The star dagger, several bags of spiritual rice, dozens of first-grade low-level flame charms, earth shield charms, cold wind charms, and three speed movement charms were all put into the storage bag.

……

After getting the storage bag, in the next few days, Li An bought another 12 pieces of talisman paper at the talisman trading office, spending as much as [-] yuan of spirit stones!

His crazy behavior naturally attracted the attention of other people in the talisman hall.

But on the seventh day, when Li An sold the remaining 31 high-quality talisman papers at the trading office with sunken eyes and a dejected expression, everyone laughed.

This situation is normal, there are always some disciples who are overconfident, thinking that they are geniuses and can achieve it overnight.

But after spending a lot of spiritual stones and energy, you can recognize yourself.

Obviously, Li An is such a person.

"Have you not slept well recently?"

On this day, after the lecture was over, Tan Qingxue frowned, and looked at Li An, "I told you a long time ago, it's too early for you to draw a first-order middle-grade rune."

She also heard about Li An's situation, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and began to doubt Xu Qiuhui's evaluation of Li An at the beginning. Sister Xu is so smart, how could she misjudge someone?

Li An is so eager to advance aggressively, why is he so calm?

"Senior Sister is right... Li An is greedy for credit, I didn't expect this to happen."

Li An also sighed.

"Take a good rest today, and go to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range early tomorrow morning!"

Tan Qingxue asked, but she doubted her decision in her heart, maybe she shouldn't ask Li An to go with her?
……

The next morning.

Li An got up early in the morning and went to the door to wait for the assembly.

Not long after, Tan Qingxue came over with a man and a woman.

That female disciple was Li An's Cao Zhirou who had taught him one-on-one when he first entered the Futang. The male Li An also knew, her name was Jiang You, and she was also from Tan Qingxue's sect.

Tan Qingxue's talent in Fu Dao is very good, but her personality is relatively simple, and her skills in dealing with people are obviously not as good as Sun Lin's.

Five of the seven first-tier middle-grade talisman masters in the sect are closer to Sun Lin.

"Qingxue, Li An doesn't need to go, does he?"

Seeing Li An, Jiang You frowned slightly.

He and Cao Zhirou are both at the fifth level of Qi training, and they are also first-level mid-level talisman masters, but what about Li An?

The third level of Qi training, the first-level low-grade talisman master...

Too much of a drag on the team.

Li An also hoped that Tan Qingxue would agree immediately, and he couldn't help but sigh, Jiang Daoyou is really a good person.

Tan Qingxue was also skeptical before, whether it would be useful to ask Li An to go with her.

But a few days ago, she wrote a letter to Xu Qiuhui, explaining that she decided to go to the Spirit Beast Mountain Range to find the second-grade elixir, and she only received Xu Qiuhui's reply last night.

In the letter, Xu Qiuhui agreed with her calling Li An up, and praised her for finally growing up, becoming mature, and thinking about things...

Moreover, she was also told in the letter that if she was in danger, she must listen to Li An's opinion... Obviously, Xu Qiuhui was still worried about her.

This made Tan Qingxue doubt herself a little.

Is it because I have a problem with my vision, or is this guy Li An hiding his clumsiness in front of him?
"It's okay, more people have more power, let's go!"

She decided to take a closer look!
Ang Lee: "..."

Immediately, the four left the Futang.

Leaving from the outer gate, heading north all the way, after passing the North Mountain Gate, there is a lush mountain range.

The mountains are majestic, vast and endless.

It is said that there may even be alchemy-level beasts growing in this mountain range, but they are usually in the deepest part of the mountain range, and basically no one has seen them.

Xuanyangzong's disciples usually only practice in the outer areas, and here are usually spirit beasts in the Qi training period, so they are not impossible to deal with.

Walking along the rugged mountain road, we soon entered the dense forest, and there was a faint smell of rotting leaves and bird and animal droppings in the air. The four of them passed by, and the hares in the forest sprang out, and the birds flew in the treetops.

"According to the information obtained, someone has seen a first-order consummated black-needled giant ape many times in the mountains in the northwest. The black-needled giant ape is very spiritual, and usually grows together with the second-order elixir. At this time, devour the elixir to advance."

Tan Qingxue introduced: "Let's first go to a few places where the black-needled giant ape has appeared."

Hearing this, Li An couldn't help frowning secretly.

The first level of perfection is equivalent to the peak of human beings' qi refining. Spiritual beasts of this level can only be dealt with at least at the foundation stage. Tan Qingxue is only at the sixth level of qi refining. Where does the confidence come from?
Could it be that she has other backhands?

Li An is ready, if the situation is not right, he will evacuate directly!

After all, although Xu Qiuhui has affection for him, it is far from enough to make him risk his life for Tan Qingxue.

……

As they went deeper into the mountains, they encountered more and more elixirs along the way, but most of them were not good quality, and few people looked down on them, but Li An never refused to come, picked them all, and pretended to be happy. into the storage bag.

After all, although these elixirs are not worth much, they are quite useful to Li An. They can be passed on to Zhao Xian, and the pharmacists in the medicine hall can be asked to help refine the medicines for body training.

Regarding this, Cao Zhirou and Jiangyou shook their heads. As expected, Li An was born as a handyman and was used to being poor. He had never seen the world.

"Hey, first-grade elixir!"

But in the evening, Li An let out a surprise cry beside a dead tree stump.

Tan Qingxue and others immediately surrounded him.

"Ganoderma lucidum, a first-class tree, actually grows among a bunch of miscellaneous spirit grass." Cao Zhirou looked complicated.

"I didn't pay attention, but let this kid take advantage of it..." Jiang You felt a little regretful.

They could see this from the Miscellaneous Spirit Grass from a distance, but no one came over.

Only this guy, Li An, even wants miscellaneous spirit grass, so he was lucky enough to run into Ganoderma lucidum...

Ganoderma lucidum, but worth about 20 yuan Lingshi!

Li An happily put the Ganoderma lucidum into the storage bag, silently rejoicing in his heart that he had practiced the Super Sensation Art.

His sense of smell, hearing, and vision are far superior to ordinary people, so along the way, he was able to effectively avoid some spirit beasts and smell the elixir in advance.

"Let's rest here first, and go to the black mulberry forest in the daytime tomorrow."

Tan Qingxue opened the mouth, and the four of them immediately set up camp and used tree branches to build a temporary shelter.

While busy, Tan Qingxue couldn't help looking at Li An.

Today they encountered several ferocious spirit beasts, but Li An seldom made a move, but gained the most.

Is this guy really hiding his clumsiness?

In fact, in the eyes of Cao Zhirou and Jiangyou, Li An's behavior is very normal. He is the weakest, so he contributes the least in battle. As for the harvest, it is purely luck...

But because of Xu Qiuhui's repeated mentions, Tan Qingxue had a preconceived notion, so she couldn't help but think about it.

Moreover, with this thought, she couldn't help but think back to Li An's performance today...

The first time he met the tiger at the third level of qi training, Li An was the one who went forward, but suddenly stopped, and Cao Zhirou went up to meet him.

The second time, a wild boar with four levels of qi training rushed out, and all three of Tan Qingxue were affected, except Li An who was far away and did not participate in the battle.

The only time Li An made a move was when he encountered two snakes at the first level of Qi Refining. At that time, the two snakes were mating... Li An trampled them all to death with one kick.

She suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong with Li An!

He was actually deceived? !

If Li An knew what she was thinking, he might be dumbfounded. Who is the problem? ?
Thinking about it from this angle, normal people will be thought of as abnormal, right? ?
"We have to separate the vigil, Li An, you and I are on duty in the middle of the night!"

After the temporary residence was built, Tan Qingxue suddenly spoke.

Li An frowned imperceptibly, what did Tan Qingxue want to do?
In Li An's view, Tan Qingxue is far less mature than Xu Qiuhui because of her good talent in Fu Dao and has not suffered too much.

The mind is relatively simple, of course, it is stupid to put it bluntly.

This kind of fool's thinking is sometimes not easy to guess...and she is easy to cause trouble.

"You are the weakest, I am the strongest, the strength and weakness match the vigil, can't you?"

Seeing that Li An didn't answer, she asked again.

Ang Lee: "..."
