Chapter 22: The Spirit Gathering Array

After deducting the pills he consumed, Xu Mu's harvest in the past two months was only six bottles of Chalcedony Pill and twenty-five bottles of Qi Gathering Pill.

The reason why there was so little was because he had spent a lot of time improving his cultivation and practicing spells.

There is no way around it, you can't have it both ways.

Six bottles of Chalcedony Pill were sold to the Song Family Pharmacy to obtain ten copies of the materials for Chalcedony Pill, as well as four medium-grade spirit stones.

At the same time, he also got two important news from Su Qing's mouth, one is that Fang City is preparing to expand, and the shantytown where he is located is likely to be included in it, and the other is that the patrol team is preparing to expand, and the number of people may increase significantly.

Twenty-five bottles of Qi Gathering Pill were sold to Shopkeeper Tu, and thirty copies of Qi Gathering Pill materials were obtained, as well as four hundred and twenty lower-grade spirit stones.

Recently, the price of the pill has not only not risen, but has also fallen, so the price is slightly lower than he expected.

However, with four medium-grade spirit stones and four hundred and twenty low-grade spirit stones, his income still hit a new high.

With the spirit stone, the first thing Xu Mu did was to go to the bookstore, buy the jade slip of the third-order fire resistance technique, and spend three medium-grade spirit stones.

Finally, I rushed to the magic weapon store to buy a magic sword.

I didn't expect to look around, and I wasn't very satisfied.

It's not that it's too expensive!

Second-order attack magic weapons, especially the relatively simple ones such as flying swords, generally do not exceed three medium-grade spirit stones.

The third-order is only six medium-grade spirit stones, and with his current value, he can afford to buy them by gritting his teeth.

The key is that the formations engraved on these magic swords are not to his liking.

Like the Floating Array, the Traction Array, the Sumeru Array, and the Parasitic Array, they are all necessary formations for normal magic swords, but they are completely useless for Xu Mu.

Because he doesn't need to use the mind control magic sword to attack the enemy from a long distance.

Instead, he is ready to take it directly in his hand, inject aura, and cut people at close range.

A second-order attack sword could only be inscribed with twelve formations at most, and half of them were not needed by him alone.

What is necessary for others is a bit of a waste for him.

"Can you order a tool here?"

"Absolutely! However, for the time being, we can only order second-order magic weapons, and third-order ones need to make an appointment in advance, and the fourth-order will not be accepted for the time being! ”

"How's the price?"

"It depends on what kind of magic weapon you are making? There are also formations that need to be inscribed, and are there any special requirements? ”

"I ordered a magic sword ......"

Xu Mu briefly described his requirements.

The clerk in charge of receiving him looked surprised and thought he had misheard.

"Guest, do you mean that ten of the formations are inscribed with a sharp gold array to increase attack, and two are inscribed with a solidification array that increases the toughness of the sword body?"

"That's right!"

“……”

Does this fellow Taoist want to cut people directly in his hands?

The clerk looked him up and down, and found that he did seem to be a little more powerful than ordinary cultivators.

"Guest, your request is a little special, I need to talk to the shopkeeper!"

"Good!"

Xu Mu nodded.

The clerk then walked into the back hall and soon called a tall, bearded old man.

In the end, after discussion, the other party promised to help him make this magic sword, and he could increase the Ruijin Array to fourteen.

Because the normal magic sword needs to coordinate various formations, in order to avoid conflicts, the number of formations needs to be strictly controlled, and the magic sword required by Xu Mu is relatively simple, and the difficulty of inscribed formations is greatly reduced, so two more can be added.

However, because it is custom-made, and his requirements are relatively special, the price is also a lot more expensive, and he needs five medium-grade spirit stones.

And you need to pay two medium-grade spirit stones as a deposit.

"When can I come and get the sword?"

"One month at the latest!"

"That's good!"

Xu Mu paid the deposit, got the certificate issued by the other party, and left.

This shop is the largest magic shop in the entire city, so there is no need to worry about credibility.

Later, he spent twenty lower grade spirit stones in the Treasure Pavilion and bought two hairpins, ready to give them to Lan Shijin's mother and daughter as a thank you for taking care of her daughter during this time.

Then I went to the market to replenish rice and meat, as well as buy a lot of sweets, preserves, white noodles, meat, eggs, vegetables, candles, window flowers and other messy things.

These are all things that Ye Yingying explained and needed for the festival.

At the same time, he also cut a few feet of fine silk and prepared to take it back to make new clothes for his wife and daughter.

Putting on his clothes, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

kept saying that if I had money, I would buy a vestment for my wife, but it dragged on for so long, and I still didn't see a shadow.

In fact, a cheap first-order magic robe is only thirty or forty low-grade spirit stones......

Never mind!

Next time!

Before leaving, he unexpectedly met Jia An at the market.

The other party is buying Lingmi.

It is not an ordinary piece of ordinary spiritual rice with five catties of lower-grade spirit stones, but ten lower-grade spirit stones and one catty of Xuanjing rice.

Even Xu Mu was a little reluctant to eat this kind of rice.

"I didn't expect that this couple is usually very thrifty, but they are quite generous during the holidays!"

Originally, he was ready to leave, but after thinking about it, he simply bought a pound for himself and went back to give his wife a try.

After returning home and putting things away, Xu Mu took the hairpin and walked towards Lan Shijin's house.

"Xu Daoyou, that's so polite!"

After Lan Shijin put away the gifts, he led Xu Mu to the hall and poured two cups of tea.

"During this time, I would like to thank Lan Daoyou for taking care of the inner man and the little girl!"

Xu Mu took a sip of tea and said

I don't know if I don't drink it, the other party's tea-making skills are really not ordinary, and it's three points better than the inside of the teahouse.

"We are neighbors, helping each other, it should be, and besides, I like the two of them a lot, especially Xiao Ling'er!"

Lan Shijin smiled at the corner of her mouth, very soft, like a gentle drizzle, which made people unconsciously want to get close.

Today's Lan Shijin did not wear the blue robe, but a loose white brocade robe, and her hair was simply tied, revealing a lazy and comfortable smell all over her body.

As for Leng Yuening, she didn't show up.

The two chatted for a while, and Xu Mu explained his intentions.

"You want to set up a spirit gathering array at home?"

Lan Shijin stared at Xu Mu, revealing a hint of surprise.

Through this period of contact, she knew that Xu Mu's income was not low, but the Spirit Gathering Array was a money-burning thing, and even she was reluctant to arrange it now.

"That's right! Don't know how many spirit stones you need? Xu Mu asked.

"The formation doesn't consume many spirit stones, the key is that after the formation is opened, it can't be stopped, and at least ten lower-grade spirit stones need to be consumed every day, are you sure you want to arrange it?"

“……”

Ten low-grade spirit stones!

In other words, at least three hundred lower-grade spirit stones are needed a month!

To be honest, the consumption was a bit more than he expected.

After a final hesitation, he nodded.

It seems that in the future, it is necessary to increase the sales ratio of chalcedony pills and reduce the refining of qi gathering pills.

In this way, there may be a certain risk, but Xu Mu feels that with his current strength, it should be enough to deal with it.

"You're such a good father!" Seeing Xu Mu agree, Lan Shijin sighed with a smile.

“……”

Xu Mu was stunned for a moment, not understanding what it meant.

Lan Shijin seemed to see his doubts, and frowned: "Isn't it true that you arranged the Spirit Gathering Array to help Xiao Ling'er improve her qualifications?" Children who grow up in an aura environment are generally more talented! ”

"Huh?"

Actually, I'm mainly here to improve my cultivation.

By the way, let my wife improve her cultivation!

As for the daughter......

"Ahem! Lan Daoyou is really smart, you guessed it at once! If it weren't for my daughter, I wouldn't be willing to spend so many spirit stones! ”

The arrangement of the Spirit Gathering Method was not too complicated, Lan Shijin only took two days to complete the arrangement, and the materials before and after were added together, and it only cost more than fifty lower-grade spirit stones, which was even cheaper than the defensive magic circle he bought.

Of course, it was Lan Shijin who gave him a discount.

Otherwise, just inviting a formation mage will cost a lot of spirit stones.

The entire Spirit Gathering Array just completely enveloped the bedroom, and the scope was not very large, if you really wanted to talk about it, it could only be regarded as a miniature Spirit Gathering Array.

After the arrangement was completed, Xu Mu immediately experienced the effect.

The first is the environment in which it is.

Stepping into the Spirit Gathering Array from the outside world is like stepping from a dirty environment into a clean room all at once.

Even if you don't meditate, every time you take a breath, your whole body will feel comfortable, as if your body and mind have been cleansed.

Without taking the Qi Gathering Pill, the cultivation speed can be more than doubled, and after taking the Qi Gathering Pill, it can be directly increased to two times, nearly three times.

Obviously, the more abundant the aura, the better the effect of using the Qi Gathering Pill.

Xiao Ling'er, who was already seven months old and could sit up and roll over and crawl, suddenly fell asleep with the opening of the Spirit Gathering Array.

From Lan Shijin's mouth, I learned that this is a normal phenomenon.

Babies are less resilient than adults, and it takes a long time to adapt to changes in the environment, but as they adapt to the environment, their talents will also make great progress.

Anyway, in the future, Xiao Ling'er's talent will definitely far surpass Xu Mu and Ye Yingying.

And Xu Mu has already planned, after Xiao Ling'er can eat normally, he will start feeding her Chalcedony Pill to lay the foundation from an early age.

He was able to make such rapid progress during this time, and the Chalcedony Pill also played a lot of roles.

Moreover, the Chalcedony Pill is different from the Qi Gathering Pill, it is equivalent to directly improving the cultivator's talent, and the benefits are obviously much more long-term.

The only bad thing is that as Xu Mu takes a large amount of Chalcedony Pill, the effect of Chalcedony Pill is also weakening.

In the future, he will either have to change to other pills, or he can only improve the quality of the chalcedony pill.

However, if he wanted to refine a top-grade or top-grade chalcedony pill, the amount of qi luck that needed to be consumed was extremely high, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

"It's still necessary to increase the speed of obtaining luck points!"

He thought of marrying a wife and taking a concubine, and then thought of Lan Shijin.

The other party is a widow and doesn't know......

Ahem!

It's better to wait for this year, look at the situation, if it is stable, it is more realistic to let Ye Yingying prepare for the second child.

Time passes, and many of them reach the annual Spring Festival.

Every household is lit up and lively.

Lan Shijin proposed that the two families get together for the holiday.

While eating, Xu Mu finally saw Leng Yue smiling for the first time.

Not to mention, it's pretty too!
