Wu Tao called Wang Sheng to come, naturally because of Kong Qi.

He promised Kong Qi to hand over Kong Qi's storage bag to his son, but when he returned to Asgard and finished the most important things first, he didn't even have time to visit his friends, so naturally it was impossible to hand over Kong Qi's storage bag to Kong Qi's son at the first time.

Now, the upgrade of Bixing Island has been successful, and Wu Tao asked Wang Sheng to bring Kong Qi's son to Bixing Island.

"Wang Sheng, I called you here because I need you to run for me." Wu Tao said to Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng hurriedly bowed down and said, "The island master, please command!" ”

Wu Tao nodded and said, "You go to Yikong Island and invite Kong Xiangqing, the son of the owner of Yikong Island." ”

Wang Sheng commanded: "Yes, Island Master. ”

Afterwards, Wang Sheng turned around and left, and went to Ekong Island to deal with the things that the island owner had given him.

Wu Tao estimated that it would take about an hour for Wang Sheng to return from going to Yikong Island, so he returned to the cultivation room, sat cross-legged on the futon in the cultivation room, and his thoughts were spinning.

He was thinking about his development plan after being promoted to a third-order intermediate refiner.

Of course, the most urgent goal now is to break through the fourth layer of Jindan.

In one year, he will definitely be able to break through the fourth layer of Jindan.

"The cultivation of Jiuyao Rong Yang Ji True Gong and Zhou Tian Xingchen Refining Body Skill does not need to be planned, and daily cultivation must not be left behind, which is the foundation of cultivation."

"As for now, I want to buy Xingchen Stones to practice Zhou Tian Xingchen's physical cultivation skills, and I only have more than 2,000 catties of Xingchen Stones on my body, and when I run them up, I will go to the secret market to buy them."

There is also a secret market in the Immortal Palace, and Wu Tao has not gone less, feeling that it is safe and secure to buy star stones in the secret market, and his identity should not be revealed.

He had made so many purchases in the city without revealing his identity.

It's impossible to reveal his identity just by buying the Star Stone once, so he would be too unlucky.

Wu Tao felt that he was just an ordinary Jindan immortal cultivator, it was impossible for him to be so unlucky, and with his cultivation, no one would deliberately set their eyes on him in the Immortal Palace.

"I'm now promoted to a third-order intermediate refiner, so I'm waiting for the Immortal Palace Refining Hall to send me a new task, and the new task will definitely earn more merits."

"When the time comes, I will definitely be able to satisfy my physical cultivation and Fa cultivation at the same time."

As a noble refiner, Wu Tao is still confident in the refiner's ability to absorb gold, if the refiner can't meet the requirements of law cultivation and physical cultivation at the same time, he will also be a refiner of Laoshizi.

It's better to be a spiritual planter.

"If you are promoted to a third-order intermediate refiner, you can exchange the knowledge of the way of third-order advanced refining and begin to comprehend. But don't worry, I've just been promoted, first, I don't have enough merit to redeem, and second, I will wait until I receive a new task from the Refining Hall, I hope the new mission is a stable and safe mission. ”

"I don't want to do so much, let's cultivate step by step first, and wait until I break through the fourth layer of Jindan."

Thinking of this, Wu Tao began to practice spells.

It's not yet night, and he generally chooses to practice Zhou Tianxingchen at night.

Even if he cultivated with the Star Stone instead of absorbing the brilliance of the stars in the sky to cultivate, he was already used to cultivating Zhou Tian Xingchen at night to refine the body skills, and felt that the night cultivation would be faster.

He was cultivating the Heavenly Refinement Divine True Scripture.

An hour later.

Wu Tao stopped cultivating the Heavenly Yan Refining Divine True Scripture, and when the divine thoughts were released, he saw Wang Sheng outside the Dongfu Palace, and there was a middle-aged man standing beside him, wearing the uniform of a disciple of the Xingchen Immortal Palace.

It is the uniform of the disciple of the ordinary inner disciple.

"This is Kong Qi's son Kong Xiangqing, Jindan's first-level cultivation, it seems that he has not inherited Kong Qi's formation mage talent, just an ordinary Jindan disciple."

Wu Tao's mind turned, and he had already detected Kong Xiangqing's cultivation.

Kong Qi is working in the Border Islands, and naturally it is also the way of the formation and cultivation that cannot be improved, so he will be sent to work in the Border Islands. They are very old, so their descendants, especially the first generation, are basically 100 years old or 200 years old.

Kong Qi mentioned that his son, Kong Xiangqing, is two hundred years old.

The two-hundred-year-old Jin Dan is on the first floor, and his talent is also ordinary.

Of course, it is ordinary for Wu Tao, but in front of the general public, the two-hundred-year-old Jin Dan is okay.

After all, from Zhuji to Jindan, I don't know how many immortal cultivators have been stuck.

How many descendants of Jindan immortal cultivators may not be able to reach the height of their fathers.

Thinking like this, Wu Tao's lips opened slightly, and the voice reached the ears of Wang Sheng and Kong Xiangqing outside the store.

"Come in."

Hearing Wu Tao's voice, Wang Sheng and Kong Xiangqing both bowed their hands slightly towards the main hall, and then entered the main hall. I saw Wu Tao sitting at the head of the main hall.

"Island master, Kong Zhenren has been invited." Wang Sheng bowed to Wu Tao.

"Kong Xiangqing of Yikong Island, I have seen Senior Brother Li." Kong Xiangqing bowed to Wu Tao.

Wu Tao got up and asked Kong Xiangqing to sit on his left hand, and after Wang Sheng went to serve the spiritual tea, he said: "Senior Brother Kong, I invited you to come to Bixing Island this time, but your father asked me to bring you something." ”

As he spoke, Wu Tao took out a storage bag and put it on the table in front of Kong Xiangqing.

Kong Xiangqing naturally knew that this Li Zhenren of the Refining Hall had come back from the Border Islands, and his father was also doing things in the Border Islands, so it was normal for him to bring something back.

Seeing the storage bag in front of him, Kong Xiangqing picked it up, and then thanked Wu Tao with his hand: "Thank you Li Zhenren." Li Zhenren, what else does my father have to say to me? ”

"Senior Brother Kong doesn't have to be polite, I have been friends with your father for many years, and I just brought something with my hands."

"As for the words, your father didn't ask me to bring you anything, but just asked me to give you this storage bag."

Wu Tao said this, and then, he talked to Kong Xiangqing for a while, and Kong Xiangqing said goodbye and left.

In the following days, Wu Tao waited for Senior Brother Yu Zhixin of the Refining Hall to arrange a new task for him.

While the mission had not yet been arranged, he also began to visit friends.

First of all, he naturally wanted to visit Liu Yidao, and in the Xingchen Immortal Palace, his friendship with Liu Yidao was the best.

Liu Yidao took him to the secret room, and then, when he went to the border islands, he gave him a third-order intermediate defensive robe.

Wu Tao kept these things in mind.

Even if his current refining level is the same as Liu Yidao's, in his heart, he still regards Liu Yidao as a senior brother.

Therefore, when he came to Liu Yidao's Jindan Island and saw Liu Yidao, Wu Tao still bowed his hand to Liu Yidao and said: "I've seen Senior Brother Liu, Senior Brother Liu, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss it very much." ”

Liu Yidao looked at Wu Tao, whose face had not changed at all, and then looked at the brand-new third-order intermediate refiner uniform robe he was wearing, and congratulated: "Congratulations to Senior Brother Li for being promoted to a third-order intermediate refiner. In the future, you and I will both be third-order intermediate refiners, but you must not call me a senior brother, just call me a fellow Daoist. ”

This is the rule of the Asgard Refining Hall, and you can't take the lead in breaking the rules.

Wu Tao said with a solemn face: "Senior Brother Liu's help to me, don't dare to forget it. ”

"Okay, let's not talk about that, Li Daoyou, follow me to the tea room, I went to Senior Brother Yu to ask for some good spiritual tea."

Liu Yidao took Wu Tao into the tea room, and the two had been separated for a long time and began to drink tea while catching up.

Liu Yidao told him about the Xingchen Immortal Palace over the years, especially the things on the Demon Suppression Island, and Wu Tao also told Liu Yidao about the border islands.

Talk to the end.

Liu Yidao asked Wu Tao: "Li Daoyou, has Senior Brother Yu assigned you a new task?" ”

Wu Tao returned to the Immortal Palace from the border islands, he was no longer a third-order low-level refiner, and the tasks of the Demon Suppression Island in the Immortal Palace Refining Hall and the tasks of the main lecturer of the Refining Academy were no longer suitable for Wu Tao, and they were a waste of talents.

When Wu Tao heard this, he shook his head and said, "For the time being, I haven't received a new task." ”

"That's not in a hurry, Senior Brother Yu won't forget Li Daoyou." Liu Yidao said with a smile.

After staying here for an hour in Liu Yidao, Wu Tao offered to leave with his leave.

Now that he has returned to the Immortal Palace, there is an opportunity to meet Liu Yidao in the future, so there is no need to rush at this time.

On the way back to Bixing Island, Wu Tao sent a message to Qian Chang and Wei Zhou, saying that he was going to visit them on Jindan Island.

Just put away the communication token but a dozen breaths, the communication token moved, and Wu Tao read it.

It was Qian Chang's summons that he and Wei Zhou happened to pass through Bixing Island, so they came to his Bixing Island to sit down and catch up on the old days.

In this way, Wu Tao agreed to come down, and then returned to Bixing Island at full speed, waiting for the arrival of Qian Chang and Wei Zhou.

The Polar Cloud Boat stopped outside Bixing Island, and after a while, Wu Tao saw two streamers flying towards this side, and when he flew closer, he saw Qian Chang and Wei Zhou in the streamers, and the two of them have not changed much over the years.

As a Jindan immortal cultivator, he generally doesn't see any changes until the end of his life.

"Qian Daoyou, Wei Daoyou, long time no see." Wu Tao saw Qian Chang and Wei Zhou stop walking, and immediately bowed to the two.

Qian Chang and Wei Erren, their eyes fell on Wu Tao's body, and when they saw the third-order intermediate refiner uniform robe on Wu Tao's body, they were envious in their hearts, thinking that the three of them entered the Xingchen Immortal Palace Refining Hall at the same time, and now, this friend has left them far away, taken off his identity as a guest, and became a third-order intermediate refiner.

In the past, although they also left them and went further, in the end, they were still the same third-order low-level refiners, and the gap was not too big.

Now, the two of them have a faint feeling that the gap between them and this fellow Daoist will get bigger and bigger in the future.

Abandoning the distracting thoughts in his heart, Qian Chang arched his hand and said, "Congratulations to Senior Brother Li on his promotion to a third-order intermediate refiner. ”

"Congratulations to Senior Brother Li on his promotion to a third-order intermediate refiner." Seeing Qian Chang congratulate him, Wei Zhou also hurriedly congratulated.

"Two fellow Daoists, please come in quickly." Wu Tao showed a warm smile on his face and invited Qian Chang and Wei Zhou into Bixing Island.

Qian Chang and Wei Zhou both said that they would not dare to call them Daoyou in the future, and they must be called junior disciples, after all, the three of them are refining masters in the refining hall, and the rules cannot be broken.

Seeing this, Wu Tao also went down the steps, the reason why he called the two Taoist friends was because of their friendship in the past.

If the two of them really take it for granted, let him call him a fellow Daoist, and when the other refiners in the refining hall heard it, they would only feel that Qian Chang and Wei Zhou didn't know how to lift and behave.

But Qian Chang and Wei Zhou are third-order low-level refiners and Jindan immortal cultivators, and they have hundreds of years of life experience, so naturally they don't even know this bit of sophistication.

The three of them sat down in the tea room.

Qian Chang and Wei Zhou asked Wu Tao about the border islands, and Wu Tao also told the two in detail.

I don't know which topic to talk about, Qian Chang suddenly said, "Senior Brother Li, your Bixing Island has been upgraded to a second-level island, right?" ”

Wu Tao nodded and said, "Yes, I just was promoted to a second-class island some time ago. ”

Wei Zhou said: "No wonder as soon as I entered Senior Brother Li's Bixing Island, I felt comfortable all over, and my cultivation had improved a lot. ”

Qian Chang said: "Senior Brother Li, the Immortal Palace Refining Hall that you and I entered together, we are all from scattered cultivation, and now, Senior Brother Li, you have given us a breath of air. Senior Brother Li, I have also saved a little merit over the years, I can borrow a little from Senior Brother Li. ”

Hearing Qian Chang's words, Wu Tao was stunned, and Wei Zhou also looked puzzled, not knowing why Qian Chang said that he wanted to lend meritorious service to Wu Tao for no reason.

Besides, Senior Brother Li Mo is now a third-order intermediate refiner, and he is afraid that he will not be able to earn meritorious merits?!

"Qian Daoyou, what are you?" Wu Tao asked directly, but there was no need to beat around the bush.

Qian Chang said: "Senior Brother Li's Island Protection Array is still the previous second-order high-level magic array, and those third-order intermediate refiners from the Refining Hall, their Jindan Island can all be third-order large arrays. Although Senior Brother Li is from a casual cultivation background, he is a third-order intermediate refiner, and he is no different from them, and the island protection array naturally has to be upgraded to a third-order island protection array, so as to be worthy of Senior Brother Li's status and status. ”

After listening to Qian Chang's explanation, Wei Zhou also hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes!" It's still Qian Daoyou's thoughtfulness, if Senior Brother Li needs meritorious service, just call me. ”

Wu Tao also understood and understood Qian Chang's thoughts, a trace of warmth flashed in his heart, and he said: "Thank you two Taoists for your friendship, I also wanted to replace the island protection array with a third-order formation, but it was not now, but I would wait for a new task and accumulate enough merits before changing." ”

Although Wu Tao said so, Qian Chang and Wei Zhou each lent him some merits, and he knew that it was not appropriate to refuse at this time, so he also put it away.

In the end, Wu Tao could only say that in the future, the two of them wanted to refine a third-order intermediate real weapon and find him to practice calligraphy, for free.

Of course, the third-order spiritual materials still have to be produced by two people, but the refining is free.

Wu Tao chatted with Qian Chang and Wei Zhou in the tea room for more than two hours this time, and only then waited for Qian Chang and Wei Zhou to take the initiative to disperse.

The reason why they talked for so long was to take care of Qian Chang and Wei Zhou's feelings, so that they would not feel that they had been promoted to third-order intermediate refiners, and their status was high, so they would be alienated from them.

After sending Qian Chang and Wei Zhou out of Bixing Island in person, Wu Tao returned to the Dongfu Palace and said in his heart: "The matter of visiting friends is over, and then I will cultivate steadily, and then wait for Senior Brother Yu to send a new task." ”

It didn't take long to wait for Yu Zhixin to send a new task, and only three days later, Wu Tao received a summons from Yu Zhixin asking him to go to his office.

Wu Tao immediately went to Yu Zhixin's office to meet Yu Zhixin.

"Senior Brother Yu, but you have a mission?" Wu Tao asked Yu Zhixin.

Yu Zhixin nodded and said, "There is a task to be handed over to Senior Brother Li." ”

"Oh, Senior Brother Yu, what kind of mission is it?" Wu Tao asked.

Yu Zhixin picked up a task document from the Refining Hall on the table. handed it to Wu Tao and said, "Take a look." ”

Wu Tao took the task paperwork, opened it and looked at it, and after reading it, he realized that this was the refining task for him to refine a one-time third-order intermediate real weapon.

This one-time third-order intermediate true artifact is called Xuanyang Bead.

As for the lethality, Wu Tao didn't know what it was, but he felt that the reward for this task was surprisingly high, but thinking that Senior Brother Yu Zhixin usually took good care of him, it was very possible to assign him a task with high merit.

Yu Zhixin saw that he had finished reading the task paperwork, so he said: "The refining of this one-time third-order intermediate true weapon Xuanyang Bead is to be provided to the boundary wall battlefield, and the Xuanyang Qi in the Xuanyang Bead is specially designed to restrain the demonic qi of the Demon Realm Demon Clan. ”

Wu Tao nodded: "I see." ”

He also understood at this time, it turned out that Xuanyang Zhu was a strategic material, no wonder the meritorious service was so powerful.

Yu Zhixin walked from behind the eucalyptus table to the front and said, "Senior Brother Li, come with me, I'll take you to the refining hall where the Xuanyang Bead is refined." ”

Wu Tao nodded slightly, and then followed Yu Zhixin out of the office, walked on the corridor of the Refining Hall, walked directly out of the range of the Refining Hall, and finally stopped in a remote hall.

"The refining location of the Xuanyang Bead, is it so remote?" Wu Tao was surprised, but he didn't ask.

Yu Zhixin was just about to stretch out his hand to push open the door of the hall, when suddenly, a loud bang sounded inside, and the entire hall shook, and the aftermath of the terrifying aura emanated, rushing towards Yu Zhixin and Wu Tao.

Yu Zhixin's dantian golden pill mana moved, resisting the aftermath, and Wu Tao behind him also immediately activated the third-order high-grade defensive magic cloak on his body to resist the aftermath of the explosion.

"Senior Brother Yu, what is this?" After the aftermath of the explosion stopped, Wu Tao asked Yu Zhixin, who had already put away the mana mask.

There was a little drumming in his heart, how did this refining Xuanyang Bead feel a little dangerous.

Yu Zhixin turned to see Wu Tao, his face was a little unnatural, but it dissipated in an instant, and he said with a smile: "The Xuanyang Qi in this one-time real weapon like the Xuanyang Bead is very strong, and the true prohibition in it is also explosive, but as long as the correct refining process is followed, there will be no explosion." ”

"This time it should be an accident, but even if it explodes, our refiner is wearing a defensive magic coat, so it won't hurt anyone."

"So that's the case, then the junior brother is relieved." Wu Tao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, no wonder, there were so many meritorious rewards on the task paperwork, it turned out that there was still such a risk.

He originally thought that it was because the Xuanyang Bead provided to the Boundary Wall Battlefield was a strategic material, so there were so many meritorious deeds.

"The greater the risk, the greater the return, and this essence should not be forgotten in the future." Wu Tao warned himself in his heart.

"Let's go, Senior Brother Li, I'll take you in to see their refining process, and you'll know that the explosion just now won't hurt anyone at all." Yu Zhixin said that he was about to push open the door of the palace, but the door of the temple opened one step ahead of him.

I saw a refiner wearing a third-order intermediate refiner's uniform robe, helping a bloodied refiner to come out, his breath was weak, his face was full of blood, and the defensive robe he was wearing was in pieces, hanging on his body, and the sign of the third-order intermediate refiner's uniform robe on his chest could be vaguely seen.

"Senior Brother Yu is here, let's not talk about it first, I didn't pay attention to Gu Daoyou's refining process just now, the Xuanyang Bead exploded, and he was seriously injured, I am going to send Gu Daoyou to the Alchemy Hall to find an alchemist for alchemy treatment." After the third-order intermediate refiner finished speaking, he quickly helped the seriously injured third-order intermediate refiner to leave.

Yu Zhixin turned his head, looked at Wu Tao, who was stunned, and explained: "See, this Senior Brother Gu just didn't follow the correct refining steps, so there will be an accident." ”

"However, this unexpected appearance is good, so that Senior Brother Li can understand that refining Xuanyang Beads must be standardized and refined correctly in accordance with the refining steps."

"Let's go, Senior Brother Li, I'll take you to meet the person in charge here."

"Senior Brother Li......"

Looking at Wu Tao, who was still standing at the door of the hall and turned his head to look in the direction where the seriously injured Senior Brother Gu had left, he raised his decibels and shouted.
