Chapter 278: The Upgrade of the Qiankun Pot
Ou Muyun and Tian Xiao'e, husband and wife, were bullied as soon as they landed on the Tiankun Star Continent. Ou Muyun was injured, and Tian Xiao'e was almost insulted.
Fortunately, there was a fairy Luo Yan from the Danting Mountain Beauty Girl Sect, who stood up in time to save Xiao'e and Ou Muyun.
Fairy Luo Yan tested by using a root detector and found that Xiao'e was a single-line water root with excellent qualifications, so she had the idea of taking Xiao'e as an apprentice.
At the same time, Xiao'e thought that she and Ou Muyun didn't even have the ability to protect themselves when they first came to this strange place, and it happened that she had a good impression of this life-saving benefactor, so she also had the idea of wanting to apprentice in her heart.
So, the two hit it off, and on the spot, Tian Xiao'e worshiped Fairy Luo Yan as a master. Since then, Tian Xiao'e has also become a disciple of the Danting Mountain Beauty Girl School.
Originally, Xiao'e planned to worship herself and Ou Muyun under the door of this Luo Yan Fairy together, so that after entering the school, the two of them could see each other every day.
But he never thought that Fairy Luo Yan refused Xiao'e's request.
The reason why Fairy Luo Yan refused to accept Ou Muyun as an apprentice was very simple, the Danting Mountain Linu Sect was a Xiuzhen sect composed entirely of women, and there were no men in the sect, so it was naturally impossible for her to accept men as apprentices.
After Xiao'e learned of this situation, she regretted it a little in her heart, and said that she was still in too much of a hurry, and she didn't ask clearly, so she worshipped someone else as her master. But I forgot to ask first, can Ou Muyun also worship together.
But at this time, it was too late to regret it, and Xiao'e just wanted to say that she didn't want to apprentice, but she was blocked back by Fairy Luo.
Fairy Luo Yan saw that Xiao'e was a little disappointed when she saw that Ou Muyun couldn't worship the Linu faction together, so she was afraid that Xiao'e would regret it immediately, so she immediately sank her face and said: "There are also door rules and regulations in our sect, and apprenticeship can't be regarded as child's play. If you repent, you should be regarded as betraying the sect and condemning it as a betrayal. ”
Fairy Luo Yan's scare, Xiao'e has little experience in the rivers and lakes, where can she tell whether what Fairy Luo Yan said is true or false? Therefore, she also broke off the idea of quitting the beauty pie.
Fairy Luo Yan first scared Xiao'e, and then then drew cakes for Xiao'e, and said: "I can see that the two of you are together, are you now a couple, or a husband and wife?" ”
Xiao'e replied, "The two of us are already married. ”
Fairy Luo Yan nodded and said, "If you are already married, it may be a little troublesome, but in order to cultivate, you had better endure it for a few years first." After you have completed your cultivation, I will let you go down the mountain and reunite your husband and wife. You can rest assured that with your qualifications, it won't take you a few years to cultivate into the best of the younger generation. ”
"This ......" Xiao'e was still a little hesitant, after all, she and Ou Muyun would have to be separated for several years. It's not as easy as a day or two.
Seeing that Xiao'e was still hesitating, Fairy Luo Yan continued to comfort Xiao'e and said, "You don't have to give up, our Danting Mountain is not too far from the Hundred Refining City over there, you can let your husband wait for you in that Hundred Refining City." After you go back with me, if you cultivate well, I will also let you come down the mountain to see your husband regularly. ”
Xiao'e heard Fairy Luo Yan say that if she practiced well, she still had a chance to come down the mountain to see Ou Muyun, so she nodded and said, "Then thank you Master." ”
After speaking, she asked Ou Muyun to go to Hundred Refining City to wait for her.
Although Ou Muyun was a hundred reluctant in his heart, he was seriously injured at the moment and was recovering from his injuries, even if he wanted to refuse, he was powerless. He also saw that the middle-aged beauty in front of him just said her name, and she scared the person who bullied her and fled, and he believed that he would definitely not be able to provoke the beautiful woman in front of him.
Therefore, he didn't want to agree, and he had to grit his teeth and agree.
So, Tian Xiao'e followed Fairy Luo Yan back to the Danting Mountain Beauty Girl Sect from then on. And Ou Muyun staggered to the Hundred Refining City alone, and lived a life of working everywhere.
At first, he was injured and wanted to find a place to work, but no one wanted to use him.
Later, his injuries gradually improved, and then he found that there were refining shops everywhere in the city. It just so happened that their Ou family had an ancestral alchemy technique. Even the alchemy that Xiao Ding learned was also secretly learned from their Ou family.
At the beginning, Xiao Ding took the lead in cultivating to the third level of Qi training, and then he discovered the storage ring that Ou Muyun had passed down from his ancestors, so from this ring, Xiao Ding discovered the Ou family's entire set of alchemy techniques and the Ou family's swordsmanship.
It's just that Xiao Ding has already learned the "Melting Heart Technique", so he is not very interested in other ordinary martial arts. On the contrary, Xiao Ding was very curious about the Ou family's alchemy, so he secretly learned it.
Even the alchemy technique that Ou Muyun is learning now was dictated to him by Xiao Ding later and recorded by him.
Although he knew some alchemy, Ou Muyun's cultivation was too low at this time, and his level of refining was limited. So even if he went to those refining shops to find errands, he could only do it as an apprentice.
So, Ou Muyun was an apprentice, and he did it for two years. Every time he was in a shop, after he felt that he had learned all the skills of the refining master, he would quit his job and leave, and then learn the art in another refining shop.
In the more than two years since he came to the Tiankun Star Continent, he had inquired about the location of Danting Mountain, and he had personally gone to Xiao'e several times, but every time he was turned away by the people of the Linu faction.
And Xiao'e, who had said that he would come down the mountain to see him regularly, but Ou Muyun did not wait for Xiao'e to arrive once.
In the past two years, Ou Muyun has become much more mature than before, and he has become much calmer in his work, and he has also learned how to deal with people.
In Xiao Ding's opinion, today's Ou Muyun has finally learned some self-reliance. He was originally the young owner of the Imperial Sword Villa, and he lived the life of a son-in-law who came to his hands and food to open his mouth since he was a child. Therefore, when he grew up, he was often impulsive in doing things, and he did not have a city in his heart, and it was difficult for him to stand on his own.
For more than two years, Ou Muyun has been thinking about Xiao'e all the time every day and night. But he couldn't think of a way to meet Xiao'e.
When he went to Danting Mountain to find Xiao'e a few times, he also asked other disciples of the Linu faction to help carry letters to Xiao'e. And in the letter, he told Xiao'e the address where he now lives.
But every time the letter was struck, it sank into the sea, and there was no follow-up.
Ou Muyun didn't know if Xiao'e had received his letter, let alone why Xiao'e didn't even bring him a message?
Xiao Ding listened to Ou Muyun's story, and he also felt that this matter was a little strange, but he couldn't figure out why there was no news after Xiao'e entered Danting Mountain.
But what Xiao Ding can be sure of is that since Fairy Luo Yan accepted Xiao'e as an apprentice, then she should not have any ill will towards Xiao'e.
Subsequently, Xiao Ding also told about what happened in the more than two years since he came to Tiankun Star. It's just that because Lu Tianshuo and others were also present, he hid the fact that he got the Qiankun pot.
When he heard that Su Lanlan and Tang Yunzhi had died, Ou Muyun also showed sadness. Although he didn't have a deep relationship with these two people, they all knew each other after all, and they all fought enemies together.
Moreover, after coming to Tiankun Star, these people who come from the earth together will feel extremely close to each other, invisibly.
Under Xiao Ding's introduction, Ou Muyun also greeted each other with senior sisters Cheng Yaowu, Li Tianliang and others.
Everyone ate and drank together, and the atmosphere became more harmonious.
When it came to what he planned to do in the future, Ou Muyun said that he still had to continue to stay in this Hundred Refining City and wait for Xiao'e.
Xiao Ding, on the other hand, said that he could not continue to stay in Hundred Refining City now because he had just offended the city lord Zhou Wenjian.
Xiao Ding felt that since Zhou Wenjian had set his sights on his Jin Lingzhu, then, after he had dealt with the affairs in the City Lord's Mansion, he would definitely look for his traces in the Hundred Refining City and get back the Jin Lingzhu.
mentioned this matter, Ou Muyun didn't dare to keep Xiaoding and the others more. After all, he didn't dare to offend the city lord.
Then, Xiao Ding and Ou Muyun agreed that after Xiao Ding found a suitable place to stabilize, he would come over to pick up Ou Muyun for reunion, and at that time, he would also find a way to pick up Xiao'e from the Danting Mountain Beauty Girl Pie.
At this moment, in this Hundred Refining City, it was inconvenient for Xiao Ding and a few people to stay for a long time, so after eating, Xiao Ding left some spirit stones for Ou Muyun, and several people hurriedly said goodbye to Ou Muyun and walked towards the outside of the city.
Fortunately, Xiao Ding and the others left in time, not long after they left this restaurant, the people sent by the City Lord's Mansion had already tracked down the restaurant. After inquiring about the direction in which Xiao Ding and the others left, they followed after them.
However, in the end, Xiao Ding and others were one step faster. After they left Hundred Refining City first, they boarded the Flying Cloud Shuttle together and flew all the way south.
And the group of people who chased the city lord's mansion outside the city, after leaving the city, they could no longer find the traces of Xiao Ding and the others, and they had no choice but to return to the city lord's mansion to resume their lives.
After Xiao Ding and the others took the flying cloud shuttle, they continued to start their wandering journey.
It will take at least a few months to go to the southern part of the Burial Soul Mountain, and it will be a long journey, and everyone will have nothing to do on the road, so they will have to concentrate on cultivation.
On the way, Xiao Ding also found an opportunity to sneak into the Qiankun pot once, and he put the golden spirit bead he got from Zhou Gongzi into the last groove on the gossip map on the ground in the stone room.
At the moment when the golden spirit bead just fell into the groove, on the gossip map in the stone room, a large circle of holy light suddenly rose, colorful. After a few rotations at high speed, it spread out of the stone chamber.
And as the holy light spread outside the stone chamber, the entire world inside the pot suddenly "clicked" and shook loudly, as if an earthquake had occurred. Then, Xiao Ding found that the graphics of the gossip map on the ground had changed.
When Xiao Ding looked at it, he saw that next to the circular groove where the spirit beads were originally placed in the Bagua diagram, that is, the position of the gills next to the eyes of the yin and yang fish in the middle, and the eight directions of the Bagua, square grooves appeared again, a total of ten.
At this time, the gossip instrument spirit standing beside Xiao Ding couldn't help but say: "Congratulations to the master, gather all the spirit beads, and let the Qiankun Pot World be successfully promoted from level zero to level one!" ”
"The Qiankun pot has been upgraded?" Xiao Ding asked suspiciously, "Promoted to the first level?" Wasn't the Qiankun pot first-class before? ”
The Bagua Instrument Spirit explained: "If you gather all the spirit beads, the Qiankun Pot will be upgraded to the first level." The Five Elements Spirit Beads made up by the master before were not complete, so it was just activating the Qiankun Pot, and the level was zero at that time, but it only opened the most basic function of the world in the pot. ”
"I see!" Xiao Ding realized, and then asked, "Then, after being promoted from level zero to level one, will there be any difference in the world inside the pot?" The Bagua Instrument Spirit replied honestly: "After activating the Qiankun Pot, the world inside the pot will have the alternation of the sun and the moon, wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and there will be the laws of time and space. However, there is no seasonal change in the pot, the four seasons are like spring, which is only suitable for the growth of most spirit plants, and most of the creatures that have no requirements for the season to survive here. For some spirit plants or animals that require the season, they will not be able to survive in the pot world. ”
Xiao Ding hadn't felt this before, because all the spirit plants or animals he had moved to the world inside the pot had successfully survived.
At this moment, Xiao Ding suddenly thought that if the Ice Flower he got from Zhou Gongzi could be planted in the world inside the pot, before the world in the pot was upgraded, would it not be able to be successfully cultivated?
I only listened to the Bagua Instrument Spirit continued: "After the world inside the pot is promoted from level zero to level 1, there will be changes in the seasons, which can be suitable for more kinds of animals and plants to survive here. Moreover, after the upgrade, the usable land area of the world inside the pot has been doubled again; The original resources of the world inside the pot are doubled again; The intensity of the aura in the pot is doubled; The original spirit plant in the pot will be upgraded to one level on the original basis. For example, it was originally just an ordinary yellow-rank spirit plant, but this time, with the upgrade of the world in the pot, it will be promoted from a yellow-rank spirit plant to a red-level spirit plant. ”
"So, what about the spirit plant that turned out to be the purple rank? What will happen? Xiao Ding couldn't help but ask happily.
The Bagua Instrument Spirit patiently explained: "Originally, it was the highest-level spirit plant, so it would not continue to be promoted, but its medicinal properties would be doubled compared to before. For example, if the black soil purple ginseng in our pot world is taken alone, taking a thousand-year-old ginseng may only allow you to increase your aura a little. But now, if you take the same piece of old ginseng again, it will double the amount of aura. ”
"That's good!" Xiao Ding felt ecstatic, and he continued to ask, "In addition to what you said above, have there been any other changes in the world inside the pot?" ”
This time, the gossip spirit pretended to be mysterious and said: "In addition, the cave where we live has added a few stone rooms, and the owner had better check it out in person to feel more real." ”
"Added again?" Xiao Ding Xi said, "Then I have to go and see it quickly." After speaking, Xiao Ding hurriedly walked out of the stone room of the gossip map.
In the small cave house, there were originally three stone rooms: a stone room similar to a living room; 1 bedroom; and the largest stone chamber on the ground with a Bagua map. This room is a place used to activate and upgrade the Qiankun Pot, and it is also a place that is more suitable for retreat and cultivation, so this stone room can be called a cultivation room.
After Xiao Ding left the stone room in the living room, he immediately found that next to the three stone rooms, as the gossip spirit said, there were several more stone rooms.
He went in and inspected each stone chamber, and found that there were two more bedrooms, a bathing stone room, a casting room, and a larger underground stone room.
This large underground stone chamber is a storage room, there is no time flow in it, and its function is the same as that of storage bags and storage rings, but its area and space are very large, and many things can be stored inside.
Previously, the Bagua Instrument Spirit helped Xiao Ding grow grain in the pot, and in order to store a large amount of grain, the Bagua Instrument Spirit built a large warehouse in the open space outside the cave. But that warehouse doesn't have this kind of insurance function in the storage space.
If the grain is stored in the warehouse outside for too long, it will still spoil.
But it's not the same when you store it in this underground storage room. Putting it here will have the same effect as putting it in a storage bag or storage ring or other space-type magic weapon.
For this underground storage room, Xiao Ding is very satisfied.
A storage place in such a large space, even Xiao Ding can refine space-type magic weapons now, but his current level is not able to refine such a large space.
This underground storage room, Xiao Ding naturally can't get in. The way it stores items, like its space-like magic weapons, is achieved through divine consciousness.
As for the casting room, it is a place for alchemy or refining tools. The walls here are so strong that even the fryer won't blow up the stone chamber.
The bathroom was built between the three bedrooms, and from any of the three bedrooms, there was a door to the bathroom.
In the bathroom, there is a large pool. When you want to bathe, simply fill the pool with water. Normally, cultivators are not afraid of the cold and heat, even if they take a cold bath, they don't care.
Of course, if you want to use hot water for bathing, then you just need to heat the water.
After checking the newly added stone rooms, Xiao Ding left the cave, and at this time he felt that the aura in the world inside the pot was indeed much stronger. At the same time, things outside the cave have also changed dramatically.
Within his field of vision, the land area of the world inside the pot had indeed expanded a lot, and even the small lake not far away had almost doubled in size. And the hill on this side of the cave has also nearly doubled in height and floor space.
Not only that, but the careful Xiao Ding also found that the original number of spirit plants and animals in the world inside the pot seemed to have doubled on the original basis.
The changes in these Qiankun pots after they were promoted made Xiao Ding's eyebrows dance with joy.
