In one of the quiet rooms of the Alchemy Hall of the Heavenly Daohua Temple.

At a thousand-year-old phoenix perch wood tea table, Cao Qianhe sat cross-legged, holding a cup of Lingwu Mountain Enlightenment Tea, and leisurely looked at a white-haired old man opposite, this white-haired old man was Zhao Siyuan, the elder on duty in the last three years among the five elders of the Alchemy Hall, and most of the other elders were busy cultivating, and all the matters in the Alchemy Hall in the past three years were handled by Elder Zhao Siyuan.

"I said Lao Zhao, we have known each other for some years, and you have to help me with this matter no matter what," Cao Qianhe took a sip of the enlightenment tea in the cup, and said very seriously.

"Cao Qianhe, you also know my rules, please ask me to refine the hard work of 300,000 spirit stones, this is indispensable, bring your own medicinal materials, after the Dan, no matter how many pills come out of a furnace, I will take three."

"Okay, just do as you say." Cao Qianhe laughed and said, "I have prepared the medicinal materials, you should prepare to open the furnace for alchemy as soon as possible." ”

Zhao Siyuan seemed a little surprised, how could Cao Qianhe, who has always been stingy, be so generous and cheerful today? Three hundred thousand spirit stones were a lot of money even for their Dao Seed Stage cultivators. The more advanced the cultivation, the more precious the resources needed, and the more spirit stones it needs to consume.

"Okay, let's make it clear first, I don't allow credit payments, pay the spirit stones first, and then I'll open the furnace."

"Yes, I'll pay you 300,000 spirit stones now."

Cao Qianhe took out a storage bag, threw it to Zhao Siyuan, and said, "Three hundred thousand spirit stones are all in the storage bag, one is quite a lot, and the medicinal materials needed for alchemy are also in the storage bag, Lao Zhao, you can check it." By the way, what I want to refine is the Fourth-Order Pill Transformation Pill. Ten days later, I will come back to you to get Dan. ”

After speaking, Cao Qianhe laughed and got up to leave.

Zhao Siyuan paused for a moment, and then scolded: "Okay, you Cao Qianhe, what's the use of this transformation pill I want?" No, you have to add another 300,000 spirit stones, and I won't take any of this furnace elixir. ”

Cao Qianhe's laughter came from afar, "Then I don't care, I don't want so many transformation pills, we have already negotiated, I just need to find you to get the pill in ten days." ”

Cao Qianhe left the Heavenly Dao Transformation Temple, and went back to his house directly, the pill needed ten days to refine, and he had to take advantage of this time to teach the apprentices the basic knowledge of refining weapons, talismans, and formations. The progress of his apprentice's cultivation was too fast, but the cultivation time was still short, and too much basic cultivation knowledge had not yet had time to be taught to him.

Back at Cao's Mansion, Cao Qianhe began to teach Li Dong basic refining weapons, talisman making, and formation knowledge, and because of Li Dong's request, the Song brothers were also allowed to observe.

Li Dong's absorption and understanding of these basic knowledge was very fast, and in just a few days, he had basically mastered these basic knowledge, and the rest was to slowly hone his cultivation by himself.

In fact, the vast majority of monks have only mastered some basic knowledge of the four arts of cultivation, and if they want to be proficient, they need not only talent, but also a huge amount of resources and a lot of time.

Li Dong didn't plan to put much effort into refining weapons, talismans, and formations, he didn't have much time to delay, the most important thing at the moment was to improve his cultivation, and he still had to practice spells.

The cultivation of spells is not as simple as Li Dong imagined, and the cultivation of each spell needs to absorb various resources and various heavenly and earthly treasures, which requires the consumption of countless spirit stones, so it is very important for monks to earn spirit stones.

Most of the resources of Canglan Star have been seized by the major families, in the case of Fairy Town, the mine resources have almost been divided by the three major families, and the most precious spirit stone vein, Fairy Town does not have, even if there is, it will be occupied by the Heavenly Dao Temple, and it is not the turn of the three major families to get their hands on it.

Therefore, for ordinary monks who have no strength or background, the path of cultivation is extremely difficult. Li Dong has now embarked on the path of cultivation for more than a year, and he has become more and more deeply aware of the true status quo of the Canglan Cultivation Realm.

Ten days passed in a flash, and Cao Qianhe went to Elder Zhao Siyuan to get the transformation pill that had just been successfully refined. Li Dong couldn't wait to go to the underground cave of the abandoned mine in Qihe Town to rescue Song Xiaoxue.

This time, Cao Qianhe also followed, and half a day later, several people rushed to Qihe Town. Find the abandoned mine, enter the cavern, and return to the underground lava lake.

The earth fire red lotus that is full of lakes is even the well-informed Cao Qianhe is dumbfounded, why has he been in the local area for so many years, and he has never known that there are so many treasures here, so many earth fire red lotuses, I am afraid that there should be tens of thousands, right? How many spirit stones is that worth? Just thinking about it makes my heart burn.

"Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, where are you?" Song Jingfeng came in and didn't see his sister, so he suddenly panicked a little and shouted loudly.

The next moment, the magma lake suddenly tumbled and boiled, and the huge head of the purple fire python poked out, and a young girl was sitting on the head of the purple fire python and looking at everyone with a smile.

This girl is Song Xiaoxue.

Song Xiaoxue jumped up in the air, jumped to the shore in a chic manner and greeted everyone one by one with a smile, "Boss, eldest brother, second brother, Elder Cao, you brought the Transformation Pill, give it to me, I'll give it to Ah Zi." ”

Looking at Song Xiaoxue like this, it seems that she has gotten along well with the Purple Fire Python for the rest of the month, and she actually calls the Purple Fire Python Ah Zi?

Li Dong and the four of them looked at each other, how could this scene be different from what they imagined?

Cao Qianhe took out a porcelain bottle, handed it to Song Xiaoxue, and said, "There are three Transformation Pills here, you go and give them to Senior Azi." ”

Song Xiaoxue took the porcelain bottle and jumped over, and the purple fire python in the center of the lake spit out a mouthful of purple gas at the right time, and saw that this purple gas caught Song Xiaoxue lightly, and safely connected Song Xiaoxue to its head.

Song Xiaoxue handed over the pill to the Purple Fire Python, and she didn't know what Song Xiaoxue communicated with it, and after a while, the Purple Fire Python suddenly raised its huge tail and slapped it heavily in the magma lake, and then, everyone saw a spectacular scene.

I saw the earth fire red lotus in the magma lake flying towards the people on the shore one by one, and when everyone was still stunned, a voice sounded, "This is your reward, put it all away." ”

The purple fire python spoke, I really didn't expect this demon beast to be so generous.

Li Dong and the others hurriedly took out the jade box containing the spiritual materials, and put away the earth fire red lotus one by one. A rough estimate shows that there are thousands of plants. One plant is worth more than 10,000 spirit stones, so many are more than 10 million, and there are more Earth Fire Red Lotus Seeds that have also been collected by several people. This trip is really rich.

Song Xiaoxue didn't know what to talk about with the Purple Fire Python again, and everyone waited for her for a while before she reluctantly said goodbye to the Purple Fire Python.

There were four people when they came, and five people when they returned, just because they were still in the boundary of the mine, Li Dong and the others had a lot of words to ask Song Xiaoxue, after all, the purple fire python was a fourth-order demon beast, and its divine sense was so strong that it was beyond everyone's imagination, if a few people accidentally offended the purple fire python in their words, it would not be fun.

In short, there is nothing wrong with being careful.

It wasn't until she returned to Cao's Mansion in Shuijingfang that Song Xiaoxue told everyone about her experience in these days.

At the beginning, Song Xiaoxue must have been very scared, but after a few days of getting along, Song Xiaoxue slowly became not afraid, and chatted with the purple fire python about their respective growth experiences, the more they talked, the more familiar they became, Song Xiaoxue found that although the purple fire python was highly cultivated, her mind was like a teenage girl, well, that's right, the purple fire python is a mother.

This purple fire python has been cultivated for more than three thousand years, and according to the long life of the purple fire python clan, it is indeed equivalent to the age of a human girl. For more than 3,000 years, he has been cultivating in this underground magma lake, except for an old man who accidentally broke into the mining a few decades ago, he has not seen a human in three thousand years, let alone talked to anyone.

Therefore, after the purple fire python and Song Xiaoxue got along, and listened to Song Xiaoxue tell some legends and stories in the cultivation realm, in less than a month, one person and one python were already like sisters.

Before leaving, the purple fire python also gave her a few precious pieces of purple fire lotus root.

As she spoke, Song Xiaoxue took out a jade box from the storage bag and handed it to Li Dong.

Li Dong took it, opened it and took a look, only to see a few finger-thick purple lotus roots in the jade box, and the circles of fire patterns on the lotus roots seemed to be burning, which looked extremely dreamy. Just a few pieces of purple fire lotus root, but it is a precious elixir on the list of "Heavenly Dao Elixir List". Many fourth-order pills and even fifth-order pills require the use of purple fire lotus root.

This purple fire lotus root grows in the earth-fire magma, and it only grows once in a thousand years, so its value can be known.

A piece of purple fire lotus root is worth more than 200,000 spirit stones. And there is no market, Song Xiaoxue has a total of four lotus roots here, worth at least 800,000 spirit stones, which is not a small amount.

Li Dong never thought that there would be such a big harvest today, not only saving Song Xiaoxue, but also earning so many elixirs.

Li Dong was not polite to Song Xiaoxue, and directly put away the purple fire lotus root, such a precious elixir, maybe it can be used in the future.

Because Song Xiaoxue is still a great consummation of Taoism, Li Dong still has a lot of seal pills, last time Song Jingyun and Song Jingfeng only used two, he only used one, gave Uncle Sun nine, and there were four left, Li Dong gave three Song Xiaoxue and told her to go to retreat and seal as soon as possible.
