Li Shiming has spiritual stones on his body, and there are many of them.
Although he did not intentionally collect spiritual stones, the number of monks he killed was too many, and each monk had a large amount of spiritual stones on his body.
Especially the monks from Tianxing Trading Company and Tianwen Sect that he killed, the number of spiritual stones on their bodies was even more astonishing.
After paying three thousand middle-grade spiritual stones, he obtained the right to use the cave for thirty years. If he still needs to use it after thirty years, he will need to continue to pay the rent.
He also got a token, which was not only the token to open the cave, but also his identity token and communication token here.
One hundred middle-grade spiritual stones were rented to the cave for one year. He didn't know whether the price was high or low. Anyway, he didn't care about the three thousand middle-grade spiritual stones.
At least he finally has a foothold in Dong Qi Continent, allowing him to contact the world of immortal cultivation in Dong Qi Continent.
When he left, he also got a jade slip, which contained instructions for staying in Wuqing Mountain.
His spiritual mind scanned the jade slips and he understood what he needed to pay attention to.
The flying height within the Wuqing Mountain Formation is stratified according to different realms. Golden elixir monks can fly freely, foundation-building phase monks can only fly at a height below ten meters, and Qi-refining phase monks can fly even if they have flying magic weapons.
Can only walk on the ground.
Li Shiming flew slowly from the bottom of the mountain to the mountain. The environment of Wuqing Mountain is good. There are a lot of monks here. Some of them live here, and many more come here for business.
There are many shops on both sides of a street on the mountainside, and this street is the busiest in Wuqing Mountain.
He didn't look at it much. There would be plenty of time in the future, so he planned to go to the cave to settle down first.
Finally he saw his cave, which was an area covered by a formation.
There are two spiritual fields at the entrance of the cave. Although the spiritual fields are very small, it is understandable considering that they are given away for free.
Using the token in his hand to activate the formation, he landed in front of the cave door.
The aura within the formation could almost be said to be that of a Yuanying-level spiritual vein. This made him slightly surprised.
I didn't expect that the spiritual energy of the cave in the Golden Core Stage would be so rich.
It seems that Liangfen Lingtian has not been taken care of for a long time. There are no spiritual plants on it. If you want to plant spiritual plants again, you will need to take care of it again.
Walking into the cave, this is a standard cave, consisting of a hall, a study room, a storage room, a training room, a utility room, and a spiritual pet room. Each room has different formations to enable the room to perform different functions.
Li Shiming didn't have high requirements for the cave. He was only interested in the training room, and he didn't have many requirements for the other rooms.
He checked first and found that the formation in the cave was separated from the formation in the outside world. The token in his hand was the controller of the formation. Wu Qingshan did not use any other means in this regard.
It can be said that without the token, it is impossible to enter the cave.
Of course, it is not that there is really no solution, otherwise how could the cave left by the long-lost monk be reused.
Just like his cave, it was taken back due to the late Jindan monks losing contact for decades.
"Hey!" When he came to the utility room, he found something wrong.
Under his 'clairvoyance', he saw that several spiritual power lines in the formation in the utility room were deviated.
Li Shiming has checked all the formations in the cave. The formation masters who set up the formations are of very high level. They seem to be particularly experienced in the formations in the cave. The formations here are extremely standard, without any errors.
With this level of formation master, how could there be sudden deviations in several spiritual lines among the debris?
It seemed like someone had touched the formation here and deliberately concealed the traces.
That is to say, Li Shiming and any other monks, even if they are formation masters, they will not be able to detect traces of the formation being modified unless the other party is also a formation master who possesses 'divine vision'.
"What's hidden here?" Li Shiming murmured to himself, stretching out his fingers and gently stroking the wall of the utility room.
He used his knowledge of the formation to forcefully open a hole in the protective barrier of the utility room, revealing the wall itself with the formation map drawn on it.
The 'Shen Eye' magnifies the wall and observes the details on the wall with a micron-level field of view.
Soon he discovered some differences in details. He tapped his fingers lightly in multiple locations. Soon after he tapped once, a rock surface on the wall moved away, revealing a hole.
His spiritual thoughts entered the cave entrance and found that there was a five-meter passage inward from the cave entrance, followed by a small secret room.
He has read Wu Qingshan's precautions, which strictly prohibit monks from destroying everything inside the cave. This kind of behavior of digging a small secret room privately will definitely not be allowed.
He had no hope as to what treasures would be found in the secret room.
To be honest, if a Nascent Soul Ancestor lived here, he might be somewhat interested in the secret room he built.
But for a late-stage Jindan cultivator, and also a casual cultivator, his interest is really very little.
The cave entrance and passage were only big enough for one person to climb in, and he didn't want to climb in. This didn't bother Li Shiming. White lotus appeared under his feet, and then he appeared in the secret room.
The walls of the secret room are covered with formation patterns. This formation pattern not only has the effect of hiding the aura, but also allows the secret room to integrate with the earth, thus preventing monks from detecting it from the outside.
There was only a wooden box in the secret room, and Li Shiming used his spiritual thoughts to open the wooden box.
As soon as the wooden box was opened, dense flying needles flew out. In the small secret room, it was impossible to dodge the flying needle attacks.
The shadow of the Taiqing Black Turtle appeared behind Li Shiming. The flying needle hit him, making a crisp sound, and then rebounded and fell to the ground.
His spiritual mind grabbed a flying needle. The flying needle was made of third-grade materials. However, because the enchanted runes engraved on it exceeded the maximum endurance of the material, the flying needle could only be used once.
But the only time it was used, it was extremely powerful, even reaching the attack power of a third-grade high-level magic weapon.
And if the incident happened suddenly, if an ordinary Jindan cultivator was unprepared and subjected to such continuous attacks, he would probably be killed on the spot.
"You're too careful!" Li Shiming was careless for a moment and got into the other person's way, shaking his head and saying.
In the end, it was a near miss. No matter how well arranged, it would not be effective in the face of absolute strength.
The great elder-level body refining, the ultimate golden elixir stage's 'Tai Qing Xuan Turtle Art', cannot be broken through this kind of attack. At least a great elder holding a third-grade high-level magic weapon is needed to break through his defense.
The flying needles in the wooden box were shot out, and the preserved items were revealed in the opened wooden box.
It was a jade sign with the word "Treading on the Clouds" written on it. The jade quality of this jade sign was extremely weird. It looked like a non-grade spiritual jade. He gently squeezed it with his hands and found that it had a hardness exceeding the third-grade spiritual jade.
.
This was extraordinary. He had never even heard of this kind of jade. The jade plaque he wanted to make was absolutely irreproducible.
His spiritual thoughts could not penetrate the surface of the jade tablet, making him unable to perceive the content of the jade tablet.
His spirit had reached the peak of the Golden Elixir stage, and he could not even perceive the inside with his spiritual thoughts, which made him even more curious about the function of this jade tablet.
Being so carefully preserved by a late Jindan monk and possessing magical properties, the jade tablet must be extremely important.
Li Shiming smiled, since he discovered it, it belongs to him.
When he has free time, he will look up information about the word "stepping on the cloud".
He thought for a while and took out a piece of jade. Although he could not imitate the material of the Taoyun Jade Tag, he could forge a jade tag that was exactly the same as the Tayun Jade Tag.
In order to make it more like the Cloud-Taking Jade Tag, he also put the jade into the computer room space and carved nanoscale solid runes on its surface. At least in terms of hardness, the forged jade tag had a similar hardness to the Cloud-Taking Jade Tag.
The reason why they are said to have similar hardness is that Li Shiming cannot accurately judge the hardness of the Tayun Jade Brand, because if he wants to find out the hardness of the Tayun Jade Brand, he needs to conduct destructive experiments on it.
He would not do this before thoroughly understanding the origin of the Taoyun Jade Tablet.
The jade token he forged has a hardness exceeding that of third-grade spiritual jade. In this case, the authenticity of the forged jade token is even higher.
He put the jade tablet into the wooden box. Unfortunately, the flying needle could no longer be used, but he still restored the flying needle's stimulating circle and rearranged the flying needle back to its original position.
This operation was easily completed in the hands of him, a formation master.
He used the 'Step by Step Lotus' again to retreat to the utility room of the cave, and restored the formation on the wall to its original state.
After that, he took out some third-grade formation flags and began to strengthen the formation in the cave, at least to the extent that it could not be easily broken from the outside.
In Wuqing Mountain, there is always a Nascent Soul Ancestor under the protection, so it is impossible for the cave to be forcibly broken open. This is the credibility of Wu Qing Mountain.
After Li Shiming arranged the formation in the cave, he summoned Li Yuanba and then Venerable Huijing.
He has no intention of sending Li Yuanba out to act alone. He is already a great elder, and he does not know when he will be promoted to the Nascent Soul stage.
After being promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, he will take Li Yuanba to Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion.
In the training room, the fourth-grade pulse-locking plate was placed in the center, and spirit gathering formations were arranged around the training room. Coupled with the spiritual energy supply of the cave itself, the training environment in the cave was much better than his previous training environment.
Even better.
It is enough for Venerable Huijing, Li Yuanba and the other three monks to practice together, at least for a short period of time, there is no need to consider the cultivation environment.
He also put the phantom dragon into the spiritual pet room. The phantom dragon is still in a dormant state, its body is wrapped around the dragon vein source crystal, and it is unknown how long it will take to wake up.
After resting for three days in the cave, he left Li Yuanba behind, took Venerable Huijing into the computer room and left the cave.
For his own safety, he would take Venerable Huijing with him whenever he went out.
"Fellow Taoist, we are neighbors, please meet me. My name is Wang Fan!" Just when Li Shiming came out of the cave and flew into the air, he heard a monk greeting him from the side.
"I've met fellow Taoist Wang, my name is Li Shizhen!" Li Shiming said the pseudonym he had given to move into Wuqing Mountain.
I don't dare to use his real name, Li Shiming. Tianwen Sect and Tianxing Trading Company will be looking for him, so using his real name is not a good choice.
Although the world of cultivating immortals is huge, even the Eastern Qi Continent is big enough, but at his level, there are not too many cultivators in the late Golden Core stage, and it is still easy to attract attention.
"Fellow Daoist Li, let's get together when we have time. Comrades of the same rank who live in Wuqing Mountain will get together regularly to exchange information!" Wang Fan said with a smile.
Li Shiming sensed that Wang Fan's cultivation was also at the late stage of Jin Dan, and it seemed that he invited him after finding out that he was also at the late stage of Jin Dan.
"I don't know when the next gathering will be. Should I make preparations in advance?" Li Shiming asked with interest.
He was thinking about how to get in touch with the world of immortal cultivation in the Eastern Qi Continent and have the opportunity to communicate with fellow practitioners of the same level. This was a rare opportunity.
"Fellow Daoist Li, let's exchange contact information. I will inform you if there is any news!" Wang Fan took out the token and said.
Li Shiming also took out the token, and the two parties added friends to each other in the token, and they can use the token to send messages to each other in the future.
"Fellow Daoist Li, what secondary position are you good at?" Wang Fan asked curiously after adding a friend.
"I still have some research on alchemy!" Li Shiming thought for a while and decided to start with alchemy. He replied with a smile.
He has already thought about it, even if his alchemy level is revealed, he will never make the alchemy perfect like he did in Beishu Continent.
In the process of refining the elixir, there still have to be some flaws to match his status as a casual cultivator, and also to avoid the risk of his identity being discovered through refining the elixir.
"Are you an alchemist?" Wang Fan said in surprise.
After he said this, he immediately looked around and cast a spell, causing a sound barrier to appear around him and Li Shiming.
"Yes!" Li Shiming nodded.
"Can you refine the third-grade spiritual elixir in the later stage of the golden elixir?" Wang Fan asked with eyes full of hope.
It can be seen that even in places like Dong Qi Continent, which has an excellent environment for cultivating immortals, alchemists are a highly valued profession.
"I can only refine the third-grade junior and intermediate elixirs in the later stage of the Golden elixir, but the chance of reaching a full elixir is very high!" Li Shiming said very modestly.
"Oh my god, I actually met the alchemy master, Master Li. I don't know when you will be free. I would like to ask you to refine a pot of elixir for me?" Wang Fan became even more excited, and his attitude became much more respectful.
"After the party, I will start the alchemy furnace!" Li Shiming did not refuse, but delayed the time a little.
Wang Fan didn't have any objections to this at all. This was an alchemy master. What alchemy master didn't have a temper? Li Shiming's attitude was already very easy-going.
"Master, what are you thinking of? I am very familiar with Wu Qingshan, and I will guide you!" he said enthusiastically.
A late-stage Jindan monk was so enthusiastic, but Li Shiming didn't feel the slightest bit uncomfortable. Let alone a late-stage Jindan monk, even the Yuan Ying ancestor was not as polite to him in the past.
