Chapter 8: Departure

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.

At this time, Li Xuangang woke up from his cultivation, and the aura on his body was displayed, and his cultivation had been improved from the fifth layer of qi refining to the sixth layer. There is another layer to enter the late stage of qi refining.

Three months ago, Li Xuanshan brought him back the evil qi, and after paying the corresponding spirit stones to the latter, he symbolically gave a few more spirit stones as the hard work of running errands.

Li Xuanshan naturally refused to ask for it, but at Li Xuangang's insistence, he finally accepted it.

And Li Xuangang, who got the evil qi, also collected all the evil qi into the yin gourd for the first time and used it to cultivate and refine the corpse. Halfway, he took out the refining corpse and re-cultivated it a few times, strengthening the spiritual connection.

Most of the time in this retreat was spent in cultivation. This breakthrough can be regarded as a matter of course, Li Xuangang has been refining the fifth layer of qi for many years, and this time it is just the result of step-by-step.

After feeling the more powerful spiritual power fluctuations on his body, Li Xuangang got up and noticed that the three Zhu Dan grasses in the corner medicine garden had also matured.

I saw that three Zhu Dan Guo hung on the stem at the top of the Zhu Dan grass and split from the middle, and each Zhu Dan Guo exposed two round seeds inside.

The whole Zhu Dan grass exuded bursts of aura, and Li Xuangang was overjoyed, and took out the tools from the storage bag to prepare to pick them.

These three Zhu Dan grass were planted by Li Xuangang a few years ago, and when Li Xuangang rushed back to Taiqiu Mountain from Xijincheng half a year ago, these three Zhu Dan grass were almost ripe, and now it is finally time to harvest.

Li Xuangang is also particular about the tools he uses to pick, Zhu Dan grass, this kind of spiritual grass, must be excavated with jade, otherwise, as long as he touches a little other material items, the whole Zhu Dan grass will quickly wither in a very short time.

Li Xuangang is quite talented in cultivating spiritual grass, and he spent almost all of his time in the family's medicine garden in the early stage of qi refining, and even the elders of the clan in charge of the medicine garden were full of praise.

This is also why Li Xuangang can grow Zhu Dan grass in the cave mansion, which is a kind of spirit grass that is extremely difficult to cultivate in the first-order spirit grass.

Li Xuangang used a small jade knife to slowly dig out the spiritual soil around the Zhu Dan grass, digging out all its roots, this kind of work Li Xuangang had done countless times, so he was familiar with it, and it didn't take long to dig out all three Zhu Dan grasses.

After that, Li Xuangang picked the Zhu Dan fruit of the three Zhu Dan grasses, and then stored the three blood-red Zhu Dan grasses in jade boxes.

Zhu Dan Grass is a first-order spirit grass, which is the main medicine of Hongyu Dan, and its price is more expensive than that of Chunlu Dan.

And Li Xuangang's three Zhu Dan grasses were planted by him two years ago, and it took a lot of effort during this period, but if these three Zhu Dan grasses were sold in the outside market, they should be worth no less than ninety spirit stones.

It is the whole elixir that is used in the medicine of Zhu Dan grass, not the Zhu Dan fruit that is knotted on it. This Zhu Danguo looks extremely attractive, but it is actually inedible and toxic.

So Li Xuangang took out the six Zhu Dancao seeds inside and put them into the storage bag. Then a burst of flame erupted from the palm of his hand, turning the remaining Zhu Danguo into smoke in an instant.

Li Xuangang reorganized his small medicine garden, and took out three spirit stones and buried them to replenish the aura of the medicine garden.

According to Li Xuangang's original plan, he wanted to continue planting Zhu Danguo's seeds, but now he decided to go out, and if nothing else, he shouldn't come back for a long time, so he couldn't take care of the spirit grass, so he didn't continue to plant anything in the pharmacy.

In the end, Li Xuangang opened the box he used to store, looked at it for a while, and took out the spirit stones and spirit valleys that he had stored for many years.

The spirit stone was put directly into the storage bag, but Linggu couldn't put it down, so Li Xuangang simply found a big bag to carry on his shoulder.

After opening the cave, Li Xuangang appeared in the back mountain of Taiqiu Mountain, the long-lost sunlight reflected on his face, and he squinted to get used to it for a while.

......

Half an hour later, Li Xuangang appeared in the family's caravan.

This caravan consisted of eleven Dirt Horse Beasts, each of which had a large pile of goods on a wooden cart behind them.

This is a supply to the family shops in Tianhefang City and Binhaifang City, and by the way, I will go to settle the income of the major shops, and the final destination of Li Xuangang's trip is Binhaifang City.

The caravan went out of Taiqiu Mountain and went on the main road at the foot of Taiqiu Mountain, surrounded by the family's spiritual field, which was full of spiritual valleys.

And Li Xuangang was sitting on top of a large pile of goods at this time, closing his eyes and recuperating, and a figure almost twice his size was standing next to him, and he was staring intently at the surrounding hundred acres of spiritual valley fields, his glasses were full of longing.

This person is none other than Li Xuangang's fifteenth brother Li Xuanshan. Li Xuanshan is tall and fat, but not burly, because his waist is too thick, there is always a sense of disobedience when wearing black family clothes. Although a pair of squinting eyes saves a lot of ground on the face, it looks quite kind.

He was not much younger than Li Xuangang, and he was only now refining qi at the fourth level of cultivation. It sounds like the cultivation is too low, but in fact, although Li Xuanshan has no interest in cultivation, the fourth layer of qi refining is a normal cultivation speed at this age.

In other words, although Li Xuangang is not talented, he can actually be regarded as a middle-class talent. This is also the reason why the fourth uncle values Li Xuangang, the inheritance of a family is inseparable from excellent descendants.

Talent doesn't determine how far you go on the path of cultivating immortals, because every broken mirror is a test for all monks. Many gifted monks could not cross the gate of foundation building, while many people with inferior qualifications were able to enter the foundation building avenue smoothly.

Therefore, although no one can guarantee that he will be able to break the mirror, the more outstanding the talent, then it means that the faster his cultivation speed, the less resources he consumes, and the higher the probability of breaking the realm.

Therefore, whether it is a family or a sect, in terms of resource allocation, it will still favor the younger generations with good talents.

Not long after, in the slow sound of the horses' hooves of the earth horse beast, the caravan left the range on the Taiqiu and left the hundred acres of spiritual fields at the foot of the mountain. The caravan headed east, and its first destination was the city of Tianhefang.

After Li Xuanshan couldn't see the spiritual field, he also sat down and leaned next to Li Xuangang.

"Brother Jiu, you said that it would be better if there were more than double these spiritual fields. The annual production of the Spirit Valley has also doubled, and it is estimated that the earth horse beasts in the family will not be able to be transported by then. ”

Hearing Li Xuanshan's whispers, Li Xuangang couldn't deny it, knowing that this was just his imagination. If you want to double the spiritual field at the foot of Taiqiu Mountain, then the second-order high-grade spiritual vein of Taiqiu Mountain can only provide such a huge spiritual energy if it is advanced to the third order, and the resources required to cultivate a third-order spiritual vein are astronomical.

But Li Xuangang didn't have much to say, just said: "When the spiritual veins of Taiqiu Mountain are promoted to the third order, it is estimated that it will be about the same." ”

When Li Xuanshan heard the words of the ninth brother Li Xuangang, he grinned, and then lay down on his back, his posture was quite indecent.

And below him was thousands of catties of Linggu, and Li Xuanshan, who was lying on his back, seemed to smell the aroma from the Linggu under him.

"Brother Jiu, do you remember the dark iron mine that you discovered in Xijin City half a year ago?"

"What's wrong? Is something wrong?"

Li Xuangang has been in retreat for half a year to break through the sixth layer of qi refining, and he doesn't know much about what happened after the discovery of the Xuaniron Mine.

"That's not true, everything should be quite smooth, when the news of the dark iron ore reached the family, it made the family a little excited, after all, it has not been found such a large vein for many years. ”

After Li Xuangang knew that there was nothing wrong, he also lost interest. Thinking about it, he also lay down, closed his eyes, and quietly listened to Li Xuanshan's words.

"I still attach great importance to the Xuaniron Mine family, and about five months ago, I sent my seventh uncle, Li Changzhi, an elder who built the foundation, to preside over the mining work. ”

"I've heard that it seems that more than half of the black iron will be sold to the Ghoul Sect after this mining, and it looks like they are refining a new treasure ship in Marina Fang City, but I'm not sure, I mentioned this when I overheard the other people in the caravan chatting. ”

"But the family did send two earth horse beasts from each of the three caravans to Xijin City, and they should have gone to transport the raw mines. I also heard that the family sent more than 10,000 mortal clansmen from Xijin City to mine, and also sent forty monks from Taiqiu Mountain. ”

Hearing this, Li Xuangang suddenly interrupted, so he spoke:

"Do you know the news of your tenth brother Li Xuankun?"

Li Xuanshan changed his posture and put his right hand behind his head.

"Brother Ten, I met him last time when I went back to Taiqiu Mountain, but seeing that he was in a hurry, I guess he should also be in Xijin City, after all, his mission in Xijin City has not yet ended. ”

"Well, got it. Li Xuangang replied lightly.

"By the way, Brother Jiu, do you know? Last time I passed by Xijin City, I went to see the mines over there, wow, it was really spectacular, densely packed with dozens of mine caves, and I also met the second brother Li Xuantian there. ”

"Second brother?" Li Xuangang was a little puzzled when he heard this.

"What is he doing there?"

Hearing that Brother Jiu finally looked a little interested, Li Xuanshan continued to speak more passionately.

Li Xuanshan likes caravans, in addition to selling and buying things, he likes to talk to different people on the road or in the market, which seems to be not like a monk at all, but like a worldly businessman.

"Hasn't the second brother been in Wujiangfang City on the other side of the Hengduan Mountains in recent years, you also know that according to the second brother's temperament, he will definitely not stay in the shops in Fang City and learn refining weapons with the sixth uncle, I guess, the second brother must often run to the Hengduan Mountain Range. ”

Li Xuantian, who ranked second in the Xuanzi generation, was one of the most talented juniors in the Xuanzi generation of the Li family, and he was quite talented in refining, so the family invested great resources in him, and sent him to a refining pavilion of the Wujiangfang City family a long time ago, so that a first-order refiner in the family, Li Qingshu, who ranked sixth in the Qingzi generation, took him.

Alchemists and alchemists are generally the same, all of them are piled up with huge resources, and practicing requires a huge amount of resources.

"The patriarch exchanged for a good body refining technique in an auction in Tianhefang City, which should be quite suitable for the second brother, so he asked him to come back from Wujiangfang City. Later, he was sent to West Jinshan to mine. ”

Li Xuangang probably understood.

The second brother Li Xuantian has been wild since he was a child, and he likes to wander around, and this time he came back and said that he might have a family meaning.
