After receiving the greeting gift from Yin Shilan, shopkeeper Lai Da smiled and took out a water bag from his waist and handed it to Li Shiming.
"Brother Shi Ming, this is the gift I prepared for you!" Shopkeeper Lai Da said with a little complacency.
Li Shiming curiously took the water bag. This water bag was the lowest level magic weapon. From the patterns on the surface, it could be seen that it had the effect of locking spirits.
Naturally, this water bag cannot be a gift, it is the contents of the water bag.
He opened the water bag and scanned the inside with his spiritual mind, only to find two tiny fish swimming in the water bag.
"Is this the Jingling Koi?" he asked with some uncertainty.
Among the spiritual beings in heaven and earth, in addition to humans and spiritual beasts, there are also many special spiritual beings.
This Jingling Koi is one of them. It is a non-threatening creature whose only function is to improve water quality.
Generally, Jingling koi are raised in spiritual springs, which can improve the quality of the spiritual springs by one level.
The Jingling Koi is rare and rare, and it can grow on its own. It does not need to sign a contract and will not increase the owner's mental burden. Various benefits make the Jingling Koi extremely popular among high-level monks.
Not to mention other things, it is an excellent thing to use the spiritual spring that has been upgraded with pure spirit koi, or to entertain guests, or to drink tea by yourself.
For Li Shiming, this Jingling koi has another function, which is to promote the growth of the third-grade golden lotus.
The third-grade golden lotus relies on spiritual springs to survive. The higher the quality of the spiritual springs, the more beneficial it is to its growth.
Li Shiming now knows the beneficial effect of the third-grade golden lotus on cultivation. This pure spirit koi is the most suitable gift. It can be seen that shopkeeper Lai Da has been careful in choosing the gift.
Of course, the Jingling Koi has limited effect on the current Li Shiming, but he knows very well that when he reaches a higher level, even if he has the status of an alchemy master, he will not be able to guarantee the supply of his elixir.
The effect of combining carp and carp will become more important.
Naturally, he didn't know whether the Yuanying monks were practicing auxiliary elixirs, but he did know one thing. He had never seen Elder Ma refining a fourth-grade elixir at Elder Ma's place, so he could tell.
Even if Yuanying monks have assistance in cultivating spiritual elixirs, they are very rare.
By the time you reach the Nascent Soul stage, your cultivation will probably mainly rely on self-cultivation.
He is thinking very long-term. He has not yet become a Jindan monk, but he is already thinking about the Nascent Soul stage.
"Brother Shi Ming has good eyesight. These are exactly a pair of Jing Ling koi. If Brother Shi Ming can train them well, maybe I can see groups of Jing Ling koi in your cave in the future!" Shopkeeper Lai Da smiled.
He replied.
This is of course a joke, the Jingling Koi is still in the state of a fry.
At the growth rate of the Jingling koi, it may take more than ten years to mature. Even if it wants to give birth to offspring after it matures, the chance is slim.
"Brother Lai knows my needs. I like this gift very much!" Li Shiming said sincerely.
Shopkeeper Lai Da couldn't help but laugh happily when he saw that Li Shiming liked it.
When he was about to say more words to Li Shiming, he saw Li Shiming looking into the distance with a solemn expression. He also looked back and saw a bright yellow flying boat approaching slowly.
"Brother Shiming, Qianye Temple is a large sect, and it is better to resolve enemies than to make enemies!" Shopkeeper Lai Da persuaded him softly using the method of transmission.
"I understand!" Li Shiming nodded.
Of course, he knew that he couldn't really fall out with Qianye Temple. Qianye Temple had a profound background. If he really formed a deadly feud with such a large sect, he would not be able to get over it with his strength.
"Excuse me!" He changed his smile and said to shopkeeper Lai Da, then turned to Yin Shilan and smiled: "Lan'er, go and accompany your master and Liang Yexuan!"
"I'll accompany you!" Yin Shilan's voice was not loud, but the determination in it made Li Shiming stop trying to persuade her.
How could Yin Shilan not know about the conflict between Li Shiming and Qianye Temple? Because Li Shiming deliberately made the matter bigger, the conflict between him and Qianye Temple spread throughout the three righteous sects, even some well-informed forces.
I also heard about this.
Yin Shilan knew that Li Shiming wanted her to leave temporarily because he didn't want her to face possible enemies together.
Elders Su and Elder Ma on the other side looked at each other and waved to Li Shiming. Li Shiming helplessly walked over with Yin Shilan.
Three monks got off the bright yellow flying boat, Zhikong Arhat, Zhiming Arhat and Zhixin Arhat. When they saw this lineup, many monks present were slightly startled. These three are considered the three most powerful in Qianye Temple.
Arhat.
It can be seen that Qianye Temple attaches great importance to the celebration of Li Shiming, the master of alchemy, and three powerful Arhats suddenly came to the ceremony.
"Welcome the three masters!" Elder Su, as the master and the equal-status elder of the Shushan Sect, Jin Dan, stepped forward and said proactively with a smile.
Elder Ma has a higher status and is smiling. None of them have any intention of enmity, whether it is for the two sects or for Li Shiming.
Li Shiming and Yin Shilan then bowed and saluted, welcoming the arrival of the three Arhats as hosts.
The three powerful Arhats came here because they wanted to resolve their previous grudges. Otherwise, if they came to cause trouble at this time, they would never stop fighting.
By resolving the grudges between the two parties at this kind of celebration, it can be said that Qianye Temple definitely gave Li Shiming a great deal of face.
"Amitabha and the poor monk were invited to come here to congratulate fellow Taoist Li Shiming on becoming a master of alchemy on behalf of Qianye Temple!" Zhikong Arhat said with a smile on his face to the people opposite him.
The reason why I came here by invitation is to regain some face.
Neither Elder Su nor Li Shiming would care about this.
"For such a small achievement, it is truly an honor for Shiming to have Arhat Zhikong, Arhat Zhiming, and Arhat Zhixin come here in person!" Li Shiming said with a smile.
Yin Shilan looked at the peaceful atmosphere at the scene. If she hadn't known the cause of the matter, she would have thought that they were close to each other.
"This is a congratulatory gift prepared by Qianye Temple for Taoist Brother Li Shiming. I hope the friendship between our temple and Taoist Brother Li Shiming will last forever!" Zhikong Arhat took out a jade box and handed it over, saying with a smile.
Li Shiming took the jade box with both hands. The space formation was drawn on the jade box. In addition, the jade used in the jade box was second grade. The value of this jade box alone was not low.
You must know that this type of space array is different from space items such as storage bags, but uses space arrays to forcibly expand the space. The space array can be used on a small jade box. Its maker is at least
It can only be made if the formation master and the weapon refining master join forces.
He gently opened the jade box, and before he could take a closer look, there were continuous exclamations from the side.
This included Elder Su, and the Jindan monks who were watching from a distance were all amazed.
"Three-grade Ling Tea Tree!" Li Shiming couldn't help but gasped after seeing the contents of the jade box clearly.
He is not an ignorant person, and his net worth is extremely rich, even many Jindan monks are not as rich as him.
However, the Sanpin Ling tea tree is a very special existence. The Sanpin Ling tea tree is one of the very few third-grade spiritual plants that can be transplanted. The requirements for the environmental spiritual soil and spiritual water are still very high, but the ability to transplant this alone is enough to make the third-grade Ling tea tree more suitable for transplantation.
The tea tree seems extremely precious.
Normally, Jindan monks rarely own a third-grade spiritual tea tree. Most of the third-grade spiritual tea trees that come out will be purchased by several major sects.
For this kind of sustainable supply of resources in the golden elixir period, Da Zongmen has agreements with various well-known commercial banks. No commercial bank dares to sell this strategic third-grade resource privately, and the price offered by Da Zongmen is not low.
Therefore, unless the Jindan cultivator finds the third-grade Ling tea tree himself, he cannot buy the third-grade Ling tea tree from the market.
Li Shiming also did not expect that Qianye Temple would be so generous as to give him a third-grade Ling tea tree as a gift.
A third-grade Lingcha tree, if cultivated well, can produce thirty Lingcha leaves every year. Needless to say, the value of thirty Lingcha leaves is already the supply of the elder Jindan of the sect for six years.
"Master Zhikong, I have always admired Qianye Temple, and we will have more contacts in the future!" Li Shiming's previous hatred towards Qianye Temple seemed to have disappeared all of a sudden, and he said to Master Zhikong with a smile.
This was not because of a third-grade tea tree, but because he knew very well that Qianba Temple showed its attitude by giving such a big gift as a third-grade tea tree.
If he didn't take a stand, I'm afraid Chiba Temple would have the same hostile attitude corresponding to this great gift.
Besides, the trouble he had with Qianye Temple was just a matter of Qianye Temple tracking his clone Li Yuanba. Li Yuanba had returned to Shiwanda Mountain and was in Ten Thousand Swords Peak, so he was not afraid of Qianye Temple's pursuit at all.
As a righteous monk, he should be his own righteous monk, and the clone Li Yuanba's troubles will be borne by the clone.
"I heard that Fellow Daoist Li is planning to receive the inheritance of divine vision after achieving the Golden Elixir. I hope that Fellow Daoist Li will attain the Elixir as soon as possible!" The smile on Zhikong Arhat's face looked much more natural.
Elders Su and Ma did not interrupt, leaving Li Shiming and Zhikong Arhat to talk.
Yin Shilan also had a smile on her face. Li Shiming and Qianye Temple had resolved their grudges, which reassured her a lot.
It is not a good thing to be an enemy of Qianye Temple, a major righteous sect. Even if Li Shiming has the support of Yuanying Ancestor behind him, it will inevitably be dangerous.
With the arrival of the three arhats of Chiba Temple, all the monks who received the invitation letters arrived, and then the celebration officially began.
"Dear fellow Taoists, my disciple Li Shiming has just entered the alchemy master's door. Thank you all fellow Taoists for coming to congratulate me!" Elder Su presided over the ceremony and made the opening remarks.
After that, Li Shiming, under the leadership of Elder Ma, saluted the tablets of the seniors of the Shushan Sect's alchemy line, and informed the seniors of the Shushan Sect's alchemy line of the important event of the emergence of a new alchemy master.
Li Shiming didn't know the detailed process. It was all under the command of Elder Ma. He would do whatever Elder Ma said.
After the ceremony was completed, two sticks of incense had passed.
"Li Shiming, on behalf of the Shushan Sect's alchemy lineage, I pass on the Five Elements and Nine-turn Furnace to you. I hope you can use this furnace as soon as possible!" Elder Ma solemnly handed a small alchemy furnace to Li Shiming's hand.
Li Shiming didn't know that such a thing existed. He looked at the small alchemy furnace delivered to his hand with a look of astonishment and surprise on his face.
Even though the Five Elements and Nine Transformers are small and small, they are magic weapons that can only be used by Jindan monks.
He was very lucky and had received many magic weapons, but he had never received the alchemy furnace magic weapon.
The Alchemy Furnace Magic Weapon is a special type of magic weapon. Both the materials used and the difficulty of making it far exceed ordinary magic weapons.
He reached the later stage of foundation building and even had all the resources to create elixirs. He had also considered the elixir furnace magic weapon before, but he didn't expect that the sect had already prepared it for him.
In fact, it is not difficult to imagine that a large sect like Shushan Sect would naturally retain the alchemy furnace magic weapon.
The alchemy furnace magic weapon is different from other magic weapons. Only alchemy masters are qualified to use it.
Even if there is a senior alchemist who has become a golden elixir cultivator, using the alchemy furnace magic weapon when refining alchemy is simply a waste. It cannot bring out the true use of the alchemy furnace magic weapon, and it will only make people laugh.
Therefore, only alchemy masters can use the alchemy furnace magic weapon, and other monks will not use the alchemy furnace magic weapon at all.
"Normally at this time, you should use the Five Elements Nine-turn Furnace to refine a furnace of third-grade elixir to show your level as an alchemy master. But given your level, you should use the spiritual weapon elixir furnace!" Elder Ma smiled at Li Shiming.
Alchemy will not be refined on site. Not to mention the many secret methods in the alchemy inheritance, refining the third-grade elixir is an extremely delicate and labor-intensive matter. The alchemy master cannot be affected in the slightest.
"Yes, master!" Li Shiming bowed and responded.
He is not worried about refining the elixir, he is absolutely sure about it.
"Everyone, the sect has prepared spiritual fruits and spiritual tea. Please rest while waiting!" Elder Su said to the monks with a smile.
The spiritual fruits are prepared based on the number of people. Each Jindan monk can be assigned a third-grade spiritual fruit, while there is no limit on the number of other second-grade spiritual fruits.
The third-grade spiritual tea is also second-grade, and the third-grade spiritual tea is too precious. There are too many Jindan monks coming this time, and even the Shushan Sect cannot produce so much third-grade spiritual tea at once to entertain them.
This aspect is really normal. After most of the third-grade resources of the sect are produced, they are distributed to the hands of the Jindan monks, and very little remains.
The retained part is also a strategic reserve and cannot be easily taken out.
Li Shiming entered the cave nearby and activated the formation to prevent monks from peeking.
The monks here are eating spiritual fruits and drinking spiritual tea while communicating with other monks. This kind of opportunity for many golden elixir monks to gather together is rare, and it is also a good occasion to make connections.
Although the monks are waiting for Li Shiming's alchemy results, it is also an important part of the celebration.
"Hey, this spiritual tea is pretty good. Although it doesn't have the spiritual energy of the third-grade spiritual tea, it is definitely the best among the second-grade spiritual tea!" A Jindan monk exclaimed.
The other Jindan monks also tasted the extraordinary features of the second-grade spiritual tea. All the monks had been drinking spiritual tea for a long time, so they knew the quality of the spiritual tea very well.
