Yuzhu Peak, half an hour later, Li Yu slowly walked out of the hall.
He pursed his lips unconsciously and his throat moved. It had been a long time since he had experienced this kind of thirst.
From today on, the pure friendship between him and Jiang Li finally went in another direction.
This was something Li Yu himself had not expected.
His feelings for Jiang Li are extremely complicated, so complicated that Li Yu himself doesn't even know what kind of feelings they are. Friendship cannot be summarized, and love... doesn't seem to be pure either.
But when it comes to her position in his heart, no one can surpass her.
Including Senior Sister Zhou and the Demon Girl.
This is the conclusion Li Yu came to after carefully examining her own heart.
In this world, she is the only one who treats him well without asking for anything in return.
Neither of them knows what the future will bring, but Li Yu knows that instead of worrying about the distant future, it is better to cherish the present. Even if you make a mistake now, don't regret it in the future.
This is what Li Yu realized from those old people.
Throughout their lives, they actually don't have many regrets about the things they did when they were young, but they can't help but express regret every time they mention the things they wanted to do but never did.
From their mouths, the four words Li Yu heard most were:
"If back then..."
They had only one piece of advice for Li Yu.
Life is short, why not give it a try.
As for the consequences, we will talk about it later.
When passing by the main hall of Yuzhu Peak, Li Yu fed the Qingluan a few grapes. As the mount of Grandmaster Xuanzhen, even though it is just a bird, it has the strength of the Golden Core stage, and because of its bloodline
, it is more powerful than ordinary golden elixir stage monsters.
In a real fight, Li Yuyuan is no match for it.
Ordinary demonic beasts can transform into humans after forming demonic elixirs. This kind of mythical beast's bloodline needs to break through elixirs to become infants before they can transform into humans. After transformation, their strength after transformation is much stronger than that of human immortal cultivators of the same level.
Every time Li Yu comes, he will feed it something to eat. Although it cannot speak, it is very intelligent. Building a good relationship with it can not only broaden the network of people, but also broaden the network of demons.
After gently touching Qingluan's beautiful wings, Li Yu bowed to Patriarch Xuanzhen beside him and planned to leave.
Patriarch Xuanzhen threw over a jade bottle. After Li Yu took it, he found that there was a Foundation Building Pill inside.
Patriarch Xuanzhen said calmly: "Don't be in a hurry to take this Foundation Establishment Pill. Wait until you can compress all the mana of all spiritual veins into ten acupoints, and then take the Foundation Establishment Pill. The success of the Foundation Establishment may be
Bigger.”
Li Yu bowed again and said, "Thank you, Patriarch."
He was used to Patriarch Xuanzhen being cold-hearted and warm-hearted. Although she never smiled at Li Yu, she was never stingy when giving him things.
He got three Foundation Building Pills from Jiang Li and Patriarch Xuanzhen, but he couldn't take them immediately.
Now, he can only compress the mana of the seventy-two acupuncture points of each spiritual vein into twenty acupoints. This is when his mana is five times that of the ninth level of ordinary Qi refining. A disciple who has just completed Qi refining,
It can only be compressed to about fifty acupoints.
Although the process of condensing gas into liquid is not as difficult as opening up the seventy-two acupuncture points, it is still extremely difficult and takes a long time.
Those top geniuses, with the help of masters or ancestors in the Nascent Soul stage, can greatly shorten this process. Li Yu has no elders who are willing to work hard for him, so he can only take his time.
If he has enough Foundation Establishment Pills, compressing mana is not difficult. The function of Foundation Establishment Pills is to help compress mana. If one pill is not enough, just two. If two pills are not enough, ten pills and eight pills will not be enough...
It's a pity that he has too many spiritual veins and too few foundation-building pills to allow him such luxury.
For Li Yu, the biggest problem at present is that the quantity of Foundation Establishment Pills is insufficient.
He has five spiritual veins. Even if every foundation-building pill is effective, he still needs five. But he only has three, and he needs at least two more. What's more, with his talent, one foundation-building pill for each spiritual vein is needed.
The foundation pill may not be enough. For the five spiritual veins added up, more than ten foundation pills are needed to be safe.
After leaving Yuzhu Peak, Li Yu did not go back, but came to Tianzhu Peak to see about the mission of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Water curtains were flowing on the densely packed mission wall. Li Yu had no interest in these Qi Refining Period missions and walked straight into the main hall of Tianzhu Peak.
There are far fewer people here, and they are basically at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and there are also many in the foundation building stage.
When a deacon disciple saw Li Yu, he immediately greeted him enthusiastically and asked, "Junior brother Li, are you here to see the mission?"
Li Yu nodded and said: "Let's take a look at the tasks that can be exchanged for the Foundation Establishment Pill."
The deacon disciple brought Li Yu to a stone room and said: "There are countless disciples in the sect who need Foundation Establishment Pills, but the number of Foundation Establishment Pills is very small. Apart from waiting in line for seniority, there are not many disciples who can exchange for Foundation Establishment Pills."
Junior Brother Li, let’s see which one is suitable for you..."
On the wall of facts, there are various tasks written on it, including the Foundation Establishment Pill task.
The vast majority of the sect, even more than 99% of the disciples, do not need to complete any specific tasks. For example, this deacon disciple, as long as he has been working at Tianzhu Peak and is responsible for receiving people on consulting tasks, then when he practices
After your Qi is complete, you can queue up at the sect to obtain the qualification to purchase a foundation-building pill.
The same goes for Kunlun's alchemists, weapon refiners, talisman masters, etc.
This is very friendly to disciples with average talent. It usually takes them several decades to reach the peak of Qi refining. By then, they will have already completed their qualifications and will wait for another year or two before it is their turn. During this period,
They slowly compressed and condensed their mana, and by the time they were lined up, they would be able to build the foundation.
Of course, Li Yu couldn't wait that long. It would be at least ten years before he had completed his qualifications. By then, the day lilies would be cold.
There are also ways to quickly obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill, but the contribution requirements for the sect are much greater. For example, if you refine one hundred kilograms of purple gold and give it to the sect, you can exchange for a Foundation Establishment Pill.
Also, if you collect ten Jade Spirit Fruits and give them to the sect, you can exchange them for a Foundation Building Pill.
There are also thirty middle-grade or above Tongmai Pills, which can be exchanged for one Foundation-Building Pill, but for the alchemist, this is a blood-losing business, and no one can curse the black-hearted sect after hearing this.
In comparison, the task of refining purple gold is more reliable.
This is the task Chen Ming chose.
Purple gold is an important weapon-refining material. It is used whether it is forging magic weapons, swords, or making machine puppets. The demand of various major sects is very high. The purple gold mines in the big world have long been mined, and there are only some
There are still some in Dongtian Secret Realm, but the quality is not very high.
These low-quality purple gold mines have extremely low purple gold content. It requires the use of mana fire to slowly refine and collect the purple gold. It would take several years to collect a hundred kilograms, even for disciples who cultivate fire spiritual veins and gold spiritual veins.
Time, it takes more than ten years to cultivate other spiritual veins.
Some other tasks are also very similar. Either collecting spiritual herbs or elixirs, or various materials, they also require the sacrifice of several years of practice. Not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive, but it also depends on luck.
This also made Li Yu experience firsthand that even in a large sect, without a strong background, it is not easy to build a foundation.
After careful consideration, he decided to go to a secret cave where purple gold was produced first.
Three days later.
Zijin Cave Sky.
The Purple Gold Cave got its name from the abundance of purple gold in it. Thousands of years ago, it was a secret realm that the good and the devil fought over. In order to compete for the several purple gold mines in it, both the good and the devil dispatched countless disciples in the Qi Refining Period to surround them.
The dispute over the mineral veins caused countless wars, and countless disciples died in it.
However, that was already a thousand years ago.
In today's Zijin Cave Sky, all the large purple gold mines have been mined out long ago, leaving only some extremely low-quality veins and purple gold stones scattered throughout the cave. The purple gold contained in them is very small, and it takes a lot of time.
Refining has long been abandoned by both good and evil.
Only some disciples in the Qi refining stage would enter the Purple Gold Cave from time to time, spend time refining some Purple Gold, and exchange cultivation resources from the sect.
The Zijin Cave has a radius of a hundred miles, and near the center, it is divided into north and south by a rolling mountain range. The disciples of the two paths of good and evil also have a tacit understanding and each occupy a place to avoid disputes.
However, this cannot completely avoid conflicts.
After all, regardless of the righteous path or the demonic path, there is a huge demand for purple gold. In the righteous path, a certain amount of purple gold can even be exchanged for foundation-building pills. However, refining it yourself is too time-consuming. Some people don’t want to work hard and want to take shortcuts.
, naturally set the target on other people.
It's much faster to grab it than to refine it yourself.
Most of the people who do this kind of thing are demons. All the righteous disciples of Zijin Cave Heaven need to be extra careful. If you don't pay attention, the purple gold you have spent time and hard to refine will be used as a wedding dress for others.
Fortunately, the good and the evil have been in the Zijin Cave for so long, and they have already developed a certain tacit understanding. If they can't fight, they will hand over the Zijin honestly. Generally speaking, the other party will not be too embarrassed, and Zijin is not an important treasure.
There is no need to risk your life.
If you kill people here and break the rules, you may be the one killed next time. Even if you are a disciple of the devil, you will always follow this tacit agreement.
In the Zijin Cave, several disciples of the Soul Refining Sect were searching along the central mountain range.
They are not looking for purple gold stones that can refine purple gold, but people who can refine purple gold. This mountain range is the place with the highest purple gold content in the entire cave. Most people will refine purple gold here.
In the past, these Soul Refining Sect disciples would not have dared to act so arrogantly here, but it is different today. With Senior Brother Xu who is at the peak of dual spiritual veins and Qi Refining, they can walk sideways in this cave.
Suddenly, a Soul Refining Sect disciple pointed to a hilltop not far ahead and said, "Senior Brother Xu, I just saw a fire there. Someone must be refining it. This guy can't even find a hiding place to refining purple gold.
