Immortality and Immortality: Liver Experience Begins in the Desert

Chapter 76 Breakthrough

He Sheng thought for a moment, and Chuanyin explained the reason.

"What! He has a good relationship with Manager Xue?!"

"No wonder Master Zhong has been taking care of him privately during this period and often lets him handle ingredients with a knife!"

When Kong Lan heard this, his eyes widened subconsciously, with an expression of disbelief.

After a brief silence, her expression changed and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Afternoon application time.

Jiang Qiong slaughtered the monsters from the prison cell and returned to the spiritual dining room.

I sensed something was wrong in the atmosphere.

Kong Lan, who didn't even bother to look at herself earlier, actually smiled like a flower.

She changed her clothes, her face was smeared with makeup, jade bracelets hung on her wrists, and her pale pink dress was embroidered with exquisite patterns.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, you must be tired after working hard for a long time killing monsters. Leave the matter of the spiritual dining room to us."

Kong Lan said with a smile.

A slightly enthusiastic performance.

Jiang Qiong was slightly startled.

Then he realized the reason and couldn't help laughing.

Sure enough, as expected, He Sheng didn't even think about keeping his identity secret and chose to tell Kong Lan.

It caused her attitude to change.

"You should go about your own business."

Jiang Qiong waved her hand, her attitude still aloof, and walked aside alone, handling the ingredients in silence.

"Yeah." Kong Lan nodded lightly, understanding that building up emotions requires a step-by-step approach and a good sense of proportion.

Following the trend is still a bit eager for quick success.

Jiang Qiong shook his head secretly, not wanting to have anything to do with Kong Lan.

This woman is too snobbish and not worthy of deep friendship.

So, the rest of the time.

Kong Lan's eyes turned around from time to time, while Jiang Qiong pretended not to know and didn't look up at all.

This move made Kong Lan feel a little aggrieved.

But this approach has obvious effects.

For more than twenty days in a row, whether Kong Lan was inviting him to a banquet, asking for advice on spiritual meal techniques, or trying to strike up a conversation, Jiang Qiong's attitude seemed indifferent and she refused them all.

final result.

More than ten days after passing Zhongshan's test, Kong Lan's attitude gradually became colder.

Not getting any return for her long-term emotional investment made her feel depressed and a little angry. She secretly cursed Jiang Qiong for being blind.

Hong Jingyuan was even asked to seduce Jiang Qiong to see if she had any special hobbies.

Jiang Qiong has always maintained a withdrawn personality. After a period of harassment, he finally calmed down.

"Finally no one bothers me anymore."

Jiang Qiong went to Lingshan Yard for several days in a row, and almost no one bothered him anymore, which made him happy.

On this day, he slaughtered monsters in the prison pen for a whole day. When his duty was over, he applied to Zhong Shan for two days of rest, and was granted.

Take advantage of the break.

Jiang Qiong went to Maplewood County and came to the Yaoyun Treasure Shop in Chengfang City.

When trading with Wu Zhilu.

He said that he was staying in Maple Leaf County in Yaoyun Oasis, deliberately creating the illusion that he had come here to take refuge alone due to the disaster in Yulingfang City.

Entering the treasure-selling pavilion, Jiang Qiong handed over the spirit stone and received two inheritance jade slips sent by Wu Zhilu.

One of them is the second volume of "Tulu Jue".

The second piece is "Six Birds Nurturing the Body".

A few days after buying "Tulu Ling Jue", Jiang Qiong thought about it and sent a message to Wu Zhilu again, asking her to go to the Yuling Treasure Shop to buy the middle and second volumes of "Six Birds Nurturing Body Jue".

A total of one thousand and sixty spiritual stones were spent.

There are still more than 400 spiritual stones left in his pocket, as well as some rare spiritual materials worth more than 300 spiritual stones.

"The expenses are like running water."

Jiang Qiong went to sell the treasure house, grieving for his spiritual stone, and the property he had earned with his life, shrunk by more than half in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, the items purchased are all worth the money.

"Generally speaking, when the Qi training realm breaks through to the foundation building realm, there are differences between low-grade foundation building, middle-grade foundation building and high-grade foundation building."

"The more solid the foundation a monk has laid in the Qi Training Realm, the higher the level of foundation building and the higher the upper limit."

Jiang Qiong said to herself: "When I temper my physical body to a level comparable to that of a first-level high-grade monster, and then increase my spiritual consciousness to a certain strength, I will be able to achieve the effect of a top-grade foundation building when I finally break through!"

Think of increasing spiritual awareness.

Jiang Qiong couldn't help but remember the Qin family's "The Art of Cultivation of Knowledge".

"Now directly using magic weapons to Qin Yurong to redeem contribution points will make her talent in weapon refining seem too evil."

"In just two months, I mastered the casting techniques of a first-level mid-grade magic weapon. It's amazing."

"Wait a little longer and pretend that I have studied diligently and diligently"

There is another main reason why Jiang Qiong is not in a hurry to exchange magic weapons for contribution points.

It's because he doesn't have enough experience points.

I got the inheritance jade slip from the second volume of "Tulu Ling Jue".

After weighing the pros and cons, Jiang Qiong finally decided to break through her own realm.

Although this move will reduce the experience gained from killing monsters, when thinking about the disaster in Yulingfang City, he was basically beaten when he faced gangsters at the ninth level of the Qi Training Realm.

I couldn't help but realize that in my current state, my ability to protect myself was still lacking and needed to be improved as soon as possible.

Furthermore, there are a large number of monsters kept and imprisoned in Qian Zui Mansion. Experience points can be accumulated slowly, but there is only one life.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qiong returned to the cave.

He sat cross-legged on the futon.

Holding the inherited jade slip in hand, he carefully studied the second volume of "Tulu Jue" inside.

With a flash of thought, the panel appeared.

[Name: Jiang Qiong]

[Realm: Sixth Level of Qi Training Realm (1950/1950)]

【Experience: 607】

After studying the jade slips of inheritance, Jiang Qiong became familiar with the running routes of the meridians, and then piled most of the experience points on them.

In an instant.

A large amount of pure spiritual energy emerged from his body, flowing along his meridians like a cool stream, nourishing his whole body.

Finally, after several weeks of circulation, all the spiritual energy gathered in the Dantian, and at the same time, one's own spiritual consciousness increased, and the aura gradually became more powerful.

[Realm: Seventh level of Qi training realm (2427/2700)]

【Experience: 130】

"call--"

"I've reached the seventh level of Qi training realm!"

Jiang Qiong exhaled, the spiritual energy in his body surged, and he had already broken through the realm.

"If you kill the monsters for a while longer, you can quickly break through to the eighth level of the Qi Training Realm!"

Jiang Qiong stood up, moved for a while, with a happy face, and then piled experience points on the "Stealing the Breathing Technique".

Breakthrough to the late stage of Qi training state.

His own aura becomes stronger.

To be cautious, Jiang Qiong decided to learn another breath-condensing technique, and cooperated with the Qin family's breath-condensing technique and mask weapon to achieve triple protection to prevent her breath from leaking or being probed.

[Spell: Stealing the Door and Concentrating Breathing Technique (Entering into the Hall: 131/270)]

【Experience: 0】

Jiang Qiong finished increasing her proficiency, closed her eyes, and concentrated on concentrating, consolidating her own realm.

The next day, early morning. Jiang Qiong felt refreshed and went to the Lingshan Courtyard, where she saw Kong Lan cooking a spiritual meal.

Compared to the past.

There was a faint flash of spiritual light in the long dress she wore today. It was a first-class low-grade magic weapon. She wore two jade bracelets on her wrists and a jade pendant on her waist. She looked arrogant.

Everything on the body is a level of luxury.

At this time, He Sheng and Hong Jingyuan were standing next to Kong Lan, helping her process the ingredients together.

Master Zhong still had a serious look on his face. He stood alone and stared at Kong Lan's cooking method. Sometimes he looked approving, sometimes he shook his head and gave instructions.

"Are you cooking a low-grade spiritual meal?"

Jiang Qiong took a serious look and saw that the ingredients Kong Lan had in front of her were of high quality and relatively valuable. The various knives were exquisite and she was attentive to the cooking process.

Unfortunately, it is limited by its own methods.

The textures of the ingredients are not delicate enough, the proportions of the soup ingredients are slightly wrong, and there are also flaws in fire control and other aspects.

The spiritual meal that was finally cooked did not reach the first level of low-grade. The spiritual energy contained in the ingredients was lost, and the value was greatly reduced.

"Your basic skills are not solid enough"

"If you practice diligently for another year or two, you may be able to master this spiritual meal and step into the ranks of a first-level low-level spiritual meal master."

Zhong Shan gave some serious instructions.

It didn’t talk about the ingredients.

Normal monks, as long as they try to master the various arts of cultivating immortals, need a lot of resource support. The reason is that when they first learn, a lot of materials will be wasted due to various reasons.

This is inevitable.

This is also the biggest difficulty facing casual cultivators. Without resources, it is difficult to master the various arts of cultivating immortals. They can only do the most tiring and painful work, get the lowest salary, and fall into a vicious cycle.

"Thank you Master Zhong."

Kong Lan expressed her gratitude at the waste of ingredients, and then asked some things that needed attention.

Wait until the two of them finish talking.

He Sheng watched Zhong Shan walk aside, busy cooking the spiritual meal, and then came to Kong Lan.

"Fellow Daoist Kong, congratulations. I got the secret recipe for cooking a spiritual meal so quickly, but I'm jealous of you."

He Sheng said with a smile.

"I did a little business, earned some spiritual stones, and bought a secret technique. It's not worth envying."

When Kong Lan spoke, he deliberately glanced at Jiang Qiong, his expression became arrogant again, he nodded slightly, and did not greet her as enthusiastically as before.

Jiang Qiong didn't care.

He walked aside in silence, looked around at the missing ingredients in the Lingshan room, picked up the knife, and turned around to kill the monster in the prison circle.

In the process of leaving, the conversation between He Sheng and others came to my ears.

"Oh? I wonder what kind of business allowed Fellow Daoist Kong to earn the spiritual stones needed to buy the secret method of spiritual meals so quickly?"

He Sheng asked with bright eyes.

Kong Lan smiled and said: "Keep it secret for the time being. I will tell you after a while."

While she was talking, she glanced at Hong Jingyuan, who was listless, and when she saw that he didn't express his usual words of support, his expression was gloomy, and she subconsciously asked:

"Hong Jingyuan, why are you looking so pale? Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"No." Hong Jingyuan shook his head and said with a slightly haggard expression: "An old senior I knew well died at home inexplicably last night."

"I finished my duty and wanted to play chess with this old man. While I was transmitting the message, his voice suddenly disappeared. I went to his house and knocked on the door but ignored him. No reply was received after I sent the message."

"He left a chessboard instrument here with me. Not long after, the spiritual consciousness gradually dissipated."

He Sheng's pupils shrank slightly and asked: "Is the person dead?"

"Yes." Hong Jingyuan said with a pale face: "I invited the patrol guards from Yaoyun Valley to come over to investigate the situation. When I entered the house, I saw the old man's mummy lying inside."

Speaking of this, Hong Jingyuan looked sad. He had a good relationship with the senior, and he was able to enter Qianjiu Tower mainly because of this senior.

Now this senior has died for unknown reasons, which makes him feel sad.

Kong Lan asked: "What did the patrol guard say?"

Pingyun County City is affiliated to Yaoyun Valley, and the patrol department established in the valley is responsible for maintaining order on weekdays.

"They said they would look into the matter seriously."

Hong Jingyuan was affected by this incident and stayed up all night and was under great mental pressure.

He lives on the same street as the old-timers.

The old man died suddenly yesterday, and he was so frightened that he did not dare to go home to live again.

"People die suddenly in Yaoyun Oasis every day. Maybe the old timer you know offended someone who shouldn't be offended and was retaliated against."

He Sheng simply guessed.

All these words fell into Jiang Qiong’s ears.

He thought for a moment, his expression did not change much and was relatively calm. As He Sheng said, people died every day in Yaoyun Oasis for various reasons.

The old man Hong Jingyuan met may be a vendetta.

Jiang Qiong didn't care about other people's affairs.

He took the knife alone and quickly went to the cell.

More than ten days later.

Pingyun County ushered in a long traditional festival - the Lantern Festival.

Various shops and restaurants on both sides of the street have hung up lanterns of various kinds, and the overflowing fragrance spreads thousands of miles away.

Qianjiu Tower is also hung with lanterns, auspicious animals, flowers, plants, insects and fish, all showing their splendor.

The lively and joyful festival makes the restaurant's business busy and the seats are full.

And in Lingshan Courtyard.

More than a dozen spiritual chefs and a large number of spiritual chef apprentices were all very busy.

"There is a Master Ji Zhu from Blood Eagle Pavilion who is coming to the restaurant to taste the spiritual meal. He cheers me up. All the spiritual dining rooms should be careful not to make any mistakes when cooking the spiritual meal!"

There are stewards organizing people in the Lingshan Court to cook all kinds of rare delicacies, which seems very solemn.

Jiang Qiong took advantage of the festival and her business was booming, so she stayed in the prison and kept killing monsters.

Killing is very enjoyable.

Look at the experience values ​​​​that keep appearing on the panel.

Jiang Qiong couldn't help but smile.

"Hey, I'm so exhausted. Every traditional festival, the restaurant will entertain a large number of guests. It's really too busy."

Kong Lan stayed not far from Jiang Qiong and couldn't help but complain.

"Just survive these few days and you'll be fine."

He Sheng said with a smile on his face.

Compared with more than ten days ago, he now has a jade pendant hanging on his waist, with exquisite patterns carved on it, which can gather spiritual energy to a small extent and speed up his practice.

Obviously, life has been relatively smooth during this period.

Kong Lan curled his lips, feeling unhappy at the thought of having to do tiring work for several more days.

She threw the tools aside, cleaned her palms, and was about to rest.

When passing by Jiang Qiong, she stopped and said:

"By the way, Jiang Qiong, how have you considered what you said last time?"

Kong Lan's topic suddenly pointed to Jiang Qiong and said: "Although the profit of the business I provide is thin, it is better because there is no risk and the upper limit is very high. The more spiritual stones you take out, the more you will make in the end."

"Since we are all acquaintances, if you want to come, I will give you a place."

When He Sheng heard this, the expression on his face changed slightly, looking slightly gloomy.

He hesitated to speak, and finally suppressed what he wanted to say.

Jiang Qiong waved his hand and said: "I don't have spiritual stones on hand at the moment. We will cooperate next time."

The business Kong Lan talks about is to hoard a kind of elixir called blood-burning grass and then resell it.

According to her, the elixir is currently selling well in Bixia, Baigu, Quanyou Oasis and other places, and the supply exceeds demand.

And she had just the right channel. She only needed to take out the spiritual stones and ask the spiritual planter to help buy seeds, help take care of them, and help plant them in the spiritual medicine garden. She didn't even need to sell them herself.

It's like using spiritual stones to cooperate with people from the spiritual medicine garden, investing in the cultivation of spiritual medicines, and eventually receiving dividends from the spiritual stones.
