Although the qualifications of cultivators are extremely important, those who have really achieved outstanding achievements throughout the ages are all those who are stoic and outstanding, and although Xu Qing's cultivation has improved, he will not slack off because of this.

After advancing to the fourth level of qi refining, Xu Qing still insisted on cultivating every day, without the slightest slackness, but after cultivating, he began to study some small spells recorded in the jade slips to make up for the gaps in his spells, which was even more diligent than in the past, and there was almost no time to rest.

The three jade slips he selected in the Hidden Scripture Pavilion recorded the spells commonly used during the Qi refining period, the other recorded some common elixirs, which described in detail the characteristics of the elixir, its efficacy, the environment in which it grows, and the methods of cultivation and care, and the other recorded the basic alchemy techniques and some alchemy experiences.

Psicosm and Psicosm are all essential spells. The spiritual eye technique is to use the spiritual sense to detect the cultivation of others, but it can only detect the people in the same realm as themselves, if the other party intends to hide, the cultivation of the qi refining period cannot detect the cultivation of the strong person in the foundation building period even if the spiritual eye technique is used;

It may seem a bit chicken, but this is a necessary spell for immortal cultivators.

These two spells are not difficult to learn, Xu Qing groped for an hour, and he was able to use them skillfully, and then Xu Qing began to seriously study the spells that fascinated him the most.

Wind Resisting Technique, after casting, the body is as light as a swallow, and the Wind Resisting Technique is an auxiliary spell that does not have attack power, but it is very practical and has a vital role in battle. It's not a difficult spell, but it takes a lot of practice to be the best at it.

Fireball, which uses internal spells to condense fireballs in front of you, Hail, which falls down from the sky after casting, and Raindrops...... One spell after another that made Xu Qing greedy, Xu Qing couldn't wait to learn all of them immediately, and then cast them.

It's a pity that ideals are often beautiful, but reality is cruel.

These offensive spells were much more difficult than the Spirit Eye Technique and the Spirit Concealment Technique, and it took Xu Qing a long time to send out the first fireball, and just as he was happy, the fireball seemed to be deliberately unable to get along with him, and it lasted for a while before it automatically extinguished... The highest level of fireball art can form a sky of fire to attack the enemy, and it is obvious that Xu Qing still has a long way to go.

Although Xu Qing longed for those spells, he was not too disappointed, if he could learn them just by looking at them, could such spells be used against the enemy?

Time always passes quietly through people's fingers when they are not looking, and in the blink of an eye, another year has passed. This year, Xu Qing is no longer busy with cultivation every day as in the past, in addition to cultivation, Xu Qing will always find time to practice spells, memorize the various elixir knowledge recorded in the hundred medicine diagrams, or study the alchemy experience.

Although he had little time to rest, Xu Qing lived a very fulfilling life. What is the hardship now, everything is for the sake of eternal life in heaven and earth in the future, and to be free in the nine heavens.

Who can really have the last laugh for those who are greedy for comfort?

Because Liu Yang and Gao Han gave him a lot of pills, Xu Qing's cultivation made rapid progress this year, and he broke through to the fifth layer of qi refining not long ago, which also made Xu Qing happy for a while, remembering that Liu Yang and Gao Han gave him pills at the beginning, there seemed to be a warm current flowing slowly in his heart, warming the ground and moistening his heart.

As for the spells, Xu Qing had already mastered those basic spells very well, and he could cast them with his eyes closed, but they were limited to mana and spiritual sense, and the power was not very great.

And all the elixirs recorded on the hundred medicine diagram Xu Qing has already memorized in his heart, but the basic alchemy may have never seen it, so he knows a little about it, and the effect is not very good.

"I have already cultivated at the fifth level of Qi refining, and my cultivation progress will not be too fast in the future, it seems that the time has come!" Xu Qing thought to himself. He was able to enter the fifth layer of qi refining so quickly because of the pills that Liu Yang and Gao Han gave him at the beginning, and in the future, relying only on the pills provided by the sect, I am afraid that it will take a long time to progress.

Therefore, Xu Qing had to find another way out, otherwise if he only cultivated like other core disciples, I am afraid that he would not be able to enter the foundation building period before his longevity was cut off.

Naturally, he didn't want his cultivation path in this life to just stop at the Qi refining period.

"Uncle Shi, the disciple wants to take over the task arranged by the sect!" Xu Qing came to the foreign affairs room and said respectfully to the uncle who was in charge of arranging the tasks of the sect.

The uncle who was in charge of arranging the disciples was sixty years old, with a childish face and a very energetic appearance, and when Xu Qing entered the foreign affairs room, he was still meditating with his eyes closed, obviously a person who was diligent in cultivation.

Zhao Fan, who was in charge of arranging the task, stopped running the exercises, opened his eyes, and glanced at Xu Qing casually, and when he saw his clothes, a trace of curiosity flashed in his eyes.

Although it was very strange for this core disciple to take on the task, he didn't ask much, after all, the tasks arranged by the sect are generally prepared for outer disciples, but there is no clear provision that the core disciples are not allowed to take on the tasks of the sect.

"What kind of task do you want to take?" Zhao Fan asked lightly.

"The disciple wants to take on tasks related to alchemy, so please ask Uncle Shi to help find it. Xu Qing replied.

"Wait, I'll check it out for you"

"Thank you, uncle!"

"There is a foundation building stage senior in the Earth Fire Valley who needs a disciple to help him choose the elixir, are you willing?" Zhao Fan opened a golden ledger, and after looking for it for a while, he asked Xu Qing.

"I don't know what I need to do to choose the elixir?" Xu Qing frowned, pondered for a moment, and didn't know what to do when choosing the elixir, so he asked Zhao Fan respectfully.

"When that senior was alchemizing, you had to help go to the elixir garden to select the elixir needed for alchemy, and sometimes you also needed to help him match the medicinal materials for alchemy. Zhao Fan was not impatient because of Xu Qing's question, the perennial cultivation made them very lonely, and sometimes it was good to have someone to talk to, so he patiently answered Xu Qing's question.

"Can that disciple learn the art of alchemy?" Xu Qing asked with some embarrassment, it was naturally impossible for him to take on the task of the sect just for that pitiful reward, the main reason was to learn alchemy.

The art of alchemy is vast and profound, and it will take a long time if he explores it himself, and if someone is on the side to guide him, Xu Qing believes that he can quickly achieve something.

Zhao Fan showed such an expression, in his opinion, how could a core disciple fancy the rewards of those sect tasks, it was nothing more than to learn alchemy, but he was also a little surprised in his heart, after all, few core disciples were willing to lower their own prices to take on the sect tasks.

"Hehe, this depends on your ability, if you can satisfy the predecessors in the foundation building period, you can naturally learn alchemy easily, but if you can't satisfy him, let alone learn alchemy, I'm afraid it's impossible to stay for a long time." Zhao Fan smiled rarely.

"According to this record, that senior has already driven back several outer disciples before, so if you want to stay, it depends on your ability!" Zhao Fan shook the account book in his hand and kindly reminded.
