Although his cultivation had broken through to the fourth level of qi refining, Li Aotian was not too happy, because after these two days of cultivation, more than half of the Yuan Crystals on his body had been consumed.

From the first level of Qi refining to the third level of Qi refining, Li Aotian spent a total of nearly 1,500 Yuan Crystals.

In addition, it cost nearly 1,000 yuan crystals to break through the bottleneck this time, and the nearly 5,000 yuan crystals he originally owned were already less than half, and this kind of consumption speed ordinary people simply can't afford it.

Cultivation is more difficult the further you go, and the more resources you consume, especially the Nine Turns of the Heavenly Mandate that Li Aotian is cultivating, which is ten times more than the resources required by ordinary heaven-level exercises.

Fortunately, Li Aotian has rich cultivation experience and a high level of understanding, plus the Nine Turns of the Mandate of Heaven does not pay attention to his personal physique, so he did not encounter any major bottlenecks in his cultivation.

Whether it is breaking through the qi refining from the ninth level of body refining, or from the third level of qi refining to the fourth level of qi refining, this is not a small difficulty for ordinary people, but for Li Aotian, as long as there are enough resources, it is not a problem at all.

Li Aotian estimated in his heart that the remaining Yuan Crystals in his body at the moment could only allow him to cultivate to the sixth level of Qi refining, which was still supported by the Yuan Qi Formation in the small Ju Yuan Array, which would allow him to save a lot of Yuan Crystals.

If there was no small gathering Yuan Array, the remaining more than two thousand Yuan Crystals might not be enough for him to cultivate to the sixth level of Qi refining, thinking of this, Li Aotian once again started to worry about Yuan Jing.

Although the previous 5,000 yuan crystal was very easy, there was also a lot of luck involved.

Needless to say, Liu Piaopiao's two thousand yuan crystals, and the other three thousand yuan crystals were basically taken by force.

Such an opportunity to take by force is not very rare, and it can be said that it is unavoidable, unless Li Aotian does not want to die, and he will rush to make enemies everywhere when he sees people.

In that case, if he makes too many enemies, he will definitely become the target of everyone, although the current Li Aotian's strength is not weak, but he can't talk about being careless in Taiyi City.

After all, two fists are hard to beat four hands, plus there are still many Dan Skill realms in Taiyi City, which is still a big enough threat to the current Li Aotian.

Glancing at the small Juyuan Array that was still running, Li Aotian raised his hand and played a magic decision, causing the formation to stop running.

In fact, if he relied on the small gathering Yuan Array to attract the gathered Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, as long as it took a little more time, Li Aotian could still become stronger, but his cultivation speed was much slower.

But as a former peak powerhouse, Li Aotian naturally wanted to become stronger quickly, after all, there was still a long way to go from Qi refining to the Emperor Zun realm, and he didn't have so much time to waste.

Especially five days later, there is a decisive battle with Nangong Ling, which makes Li Aotian unin a hurry.

Originally, with a powerful physical body of the second turn of the Mandate of Heaven, coupled with the martial arts and magical powers he knew, Li Aotian was confident enough to defeat any opponent in the same realm, even if the opponent was a Qi Refining Ninth Fold.

But Li Aotian knows that the Nangong family is not good at stubble, so since Nangong Ling dares to challenge himself, in addition to his own strength, he will definitely have a backhand.

Therefore, for Li Aotian at the moment, the higher the cultivation realm, the greater the certainty that he and Nangong Ling will win the battle.

"Is it true that I have to rely on hunting demon beasts to earn Yuan Crystal, I want to be proud of the Heavenly Sword Venerable, how could I have deliberately done such a thing!"

After some entanglement, Li Aotian couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Master, Steward Zhang brought someone here, saying that the things that the eldest lady had prepared for you have been prepared. ”

Just when Li Aotian was entangled in his heart, suddenly, Li Si's voice came from outside the door, and Li Aotian hurriedly opened the door and walked out.

As soon as he walked out of the door, Li Aotian saw Steward Zhang, who was blocked by Zhang San outside the courtyard, and the six guards brought by Steward Zhang.

The six guards were divided into two groups, one of which was two, carrying a large iron bucket, and the other group of four, working together to carry a large black iron block, which seemed to be not light, and all four of them were tired and panting.

"Second Young Master, this is what the eldest lady asked me to send to you, saying that it is what you need. ”

Seeing Li Aotian coming over, Steward Zhang hurriedly said with a smile, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was extremely polite to Li Aotian.

"It's pretty fast, not tomorrow. ”

The divine sense swept away the things carried by several guards, Li Aotian nodded slightly, the black iron was exactly the iron essence he needed, and what was contained in the iron bucket was the cold condensation quenching water necessary for refining weapons.

"Originally, it was going to be tomorrow, because my Li family didn't have this cold condensation quenching water, so I needed to go outside to buy it, and it was easy and difficult to buy. ”

"But today, the eldest lady went out in person, and those shops were very face-saving, so I quickly bought this thing, and after buying this thing, the eldest lady immediately asked me to send it to you. ”

Steward Zhang explained with a smile.

"I see, it seems that my face is not small, and it is really an honor to bother the eldest lady to run in person, you go back and tell the eldest lady, and say that I Li Aotian appreciates it." ”

Li Aotian was a little surprised that Liu Piaopiao would personally go out to buy cold condensation quenching water for himself, but he didn't show it, he said with a polite smile.

"If the second young master says, I will definitely bring it to the eldest lady word for word, oh yes, there is also a bag of melted golden sands here, which is also what the second young master needs. ”

Steward Zhang said, took out another bulging cloth bag from his arms, and then handed it to Li Aotian.

"Very well, you guys put your things down and go back. ”

Put away the melted sands, and then Li Aotian commanded.

"Why don't you let them bring these things into the house, the weight of this iron essence is not light. Steward Zhang suggested.

"No, I have storage bags, these things don't take much effort for me. Li Aotian shook his head and said.

Hearing this, Steward Zhang subconsciously glanced at the house behind Li Aotian, and then glanced at several guards behind him, and several of them turned around and left together.

"Steward Zhang, the things that the second young master wants, they are all used by the refiner, could it be that the second young master has become a refiner?"

After leaving Li Aotian's residence for some distance, a middle-aged guard couldn't help but ask.

"You ask me who I ask, don't speculate. ”

Glancing at the middle-aged guard, Steward Zhang said with a serious expression.

"It's not my random speculation, but the facts are clear, iron essence, cold condensation quenching soldier water and melting golden sand, these are all things needed for refining, but the key is that the second young master's residence does not have earth fire, and there are no conditions for refining. ”

The middle-aged guard muttered puzzledly, not only him, but several other guards also showed puzzled looks.

"It's all said don't speculate, don't inquire about some things that shouldn't be inquired about, so as not to get into trouble!"

"Let me tell you, as the guard of my Li family, you only need to remember two points, one is to obey the order, and the other is to obey the order!"

Steward Zhang said in a cold tone

"Whose order is that, Grand Lady or Grand Elder?" someone asked rhetorically.

"Whoever the head of my Li family is, I will listen to whomever he wants, although the head of the family has not been out of the customs, but he has handed over the power of my Li family to the eldest lady before the retreat. ”

"Although the eldest lady is a foreign surname, she is the mother of the eldest young master, the wife of the head of the family, and now you have also seen the situation of the second young master, no matter how good my Li family is, it will not be the turn of the eldest elder to take power, you are not stupid, but don't stand on the wrong team!"

Steward Zhang said with a cold look in his eyes, the meaning in his words is already very clear, the person in charge of the Li family will always be the head of the family, even if something happens to the head of the family, there is still Li Aotian.

When several guards heard this, they all nodded solemnly, already knowing what to do.

......

Returning to the house with the iron essence and other things, Li Aotian did not focus on cultivation anymore, but planned to refine a worthy magic weapon first.

Before, he had obtained the cold iron heavy gold and the aurora purple spirit gold, and now the eldest lady has sent iron essence and other things, and all the things that Li Aotian needs for refining have been prepared.

As for refining what kind of magic weapon, this Li Aotian had already made a decision.

In his previous life, he was a sword cultivator, although he no longer majored in kendo now, but the sword was still his favorite magic weapon, and he planned to refine a sword, a rare heavy sword.

The so-called heavy sword is fundamentally different from the general sword that is mainly light and sharp, and its core is one word, that is, heavy.

Although it is far inferior to the ordinary sword in terms of lightness and sharpness, it is much more powerful than the ordinary sword in terms of power and destructive power.

The reason why Li Aotian chose to refine the heavy sword was for two reasons.

First, because the materials in his hand are more suitable for refining heavy swords, especially cold iron heavy gold, and the Aurora Purple Spirit Gold can also make up for the shortcomings of heavy swords in terms of lack of sharpness.

The second is because the Nine Turns of the Mandate of Heaven that he majored in is mainly strong in the flesh, and the ordinary sword is not suitable for use, while the heavy sword is just right.
