In the days that followed, Lu Zhong concentrated on improving his cultivation.
Thanks to the improvement in the success rate of making talismans, his income has increased significantly. This is reflected in the monthly cost of spiritual stones. From the beginning, one Yuan-Building Pill every seven days has gradually increased to once every three days.
If it were not for the fear of overdosing of elixirs, which would lead to the accumulation of erysipelas, the interval between taking elixirs could be shorter.
With the investment of a large amount of spiritual stones, his cultivation level increased at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, Linghuan Dharmakaya did not stop either.
No matter how much you save, you will always have one Linghuan Secret Pill every month.
The effect of Linghuan Dharma Body on improving strength is average, but the external changes are very obvious. This method pays more attention to the nourishment of the body by spiritual energy. Some minor physical defects are repaired unconsciously, and the body shape becomes more symmetrical than before.
It looks more like a silk fairy.
What surprised Lu Zhong even more was...
As the strength of the body increases, the strength of the meridians is also slowly increasing, and it is now able to withstand a larger load of spiritual energy, which means that the number of daily exercises increases, which in disguise improves one's own cultivation qualifications.
Although this "improvement" is very small, as the saying goes, small numbers are afraid of long calculations.
Accumulated over time, it is still a number that cannot be underestimated.
This is an unexpected benefit of body refining, but it can only be done by those with extra money. After all, body refining is equivalent to burning spiritual stones, and most people probably don't have so many spiritual stones to burn.
Lu Zhong also relied on the huge sales of the Qingyang Amulet, and when there were very few competitors in the market, he made huge profits that far exceeded the exorcism talisman, so that he could satisfy the need to increase his cultivation level at full speed.
, squeeze out part of the spiritual stone to refine the body.
But this peaceful life is coming to an end.
…
In the blink of an eye, half a year later.
On this day, Lu Zhong went to Bai Xiaohan's house again to get the elixir.
Since there is an alchemist living next to his house, he naturally has no reason to sacrifice the near for the distant. Moreover, her alchemy skills are also very good. When the refining fee of the Linghuan secret elixir is similar, the effect of the secret elixir is better than that of the elixir.
The price is one to two percent higher.
After meeting Bai Xiaohan, he found that he had a sad face at the moment.
"So it turns out that Fellow Daoist Lu doesn't know about Fangshi's recruitment?"
When Bai Xiaohan heard Lu Zhong's question, he first showed a puzzled expression on his face, and then realized that it was because he was too well-informed. There were many people who wanted to please the alchemist, and this information was revealed by a descendant of a senior management in Fang City.
.
Her face fell down, and her tone was sour: "My fellow Taoist, I don't know. What I came to Yanling Mountain for is that there is no alchemist guild here, and I can make alchemy freely without having to quarrel with the old people. I also like it."
Yanlingshanfang City has never required regular corvee labor like the Fangshi in the north, but I didn’t expect that this time it would be a conscription.”
Recruitment, this is no joke.
Bai Xiaohan had seen and heard a lot about the wars between the monks. No matter what happened, there were corpses everywhere. Every time he thought of those bloody scenes, he would have to lose sleep for a day or two before he could recover.
"What should I do? Do I have to move away again..."
Listening to her talking to herself there, Lu Zhong also felt huge waves in his heart.
"I didn't expect that the rumors in the market are actually true. There have been rumors like this leaking out before. It is said that the Jinhong Sect has made up its mind to completely eradicate the Chihu Gang. I thought it was another fabricated fake news, but now it is actually prepared.
Issue a call-up order."
Thinking of this, he also had the idea of moving away from Yanlingshanfang City.
But then I thought about it, where could I move to?
Moving is not about eating and drinking. If you are not careful, you will die. The danger may come from evil cultivators on the road, monsters you encounter by chance, or even from the caravans following you.
Unless it's a situation like Qingliubo, where if you don't move you will be involved in a sect war, moving is definitely the next best option.
Moreover, Bai Xiaohan also said just now that she often moved around but could never find peace of mind.
Lu Zhong couldn't think of a way for a while, so he had to say goodbye to Bai Xiaohan.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, please take care and make more preparations." Bai Xiaohan had seen the cruelty of war, and many acquaintances died as a result, so he couldn't help but remind him.
"Thank you!" Lu Zhong nodded.
…
After leaving the door, Lu Zhong went straight to the Fifth Ring Shop Street.
When the news is confirmed, it becomes very necessary to buy a magic weapon that is suitable for your hands. This can ensure a greater advantage in the battle of magic. There is also a protective artifact like the Golden Light Talisman, which can be used with enough spiritual stones.
You should try to buy as much as possible. The more you buy, the better your safety will be.
I hurriedly arrived at the shopping street, which seemed peaceful on the surface.
But it was not without exceptions. Some pill shops were beginning to close, which made Lu Zhong feel the turbulent torrent hidden underneath.
When he came to a shop that sold magic weapons, he went straight to the point and said that he wanted to buy a middle-grade magic weapon. It was not appropriate to use low-grade magic weapons after reaching the fifth level of Qi Refining. Only by using medium-grade magic weapons could one show his strength.
The answer I got was that the weapon refinery was temporarily not supplying the goods due to insufficient production capacity. There was no stock in the store and it would take three to five days for the goods to arrive.
"In the next three to five days, I'm afraid things will be so expensive that I won't be able to afford it."
Lu Zhong was unwilling to give in and asked several houses before finally asking about a flying sword that someone else had ordered but didn't want.
Because it is a custom-made magic weapon, its grade has reached mid-grade, so it is sold for eight hundred spirit stones.
It's a good thing that he hasn't bought the Peiyuan Pill this month, otherwise he would definitely not have enough spiritual stones.
There’s nothing to say, just dig out the spirit stone and get it!
Golden biting sword, a medium-grade magical weapon.
It has two minor magical powers: "Armor Breaking" and "Qi Devouring".
Armor-breaking, as the name suggests, has extremely strong penetrating power against all kinds of "hard armor".
For those monks who hunt monsters, magic weapons with this small magical power are treasures. It should be noted that the hard skin and hard scales of monster beasts are most afraid of breaking through the armor. It takes three or four hits to penetrate the scales of ordinary magic weapons.
, it may only take a moment to switch to a magic weapon with armor-piercing magical powers.
Qi Devouring can absorb spiritual energy when attacking and feed it back to the magic weapon to reduce consumption.
This small magical power is also a powerful weapon against monsters. The monster energy in monsters' bodies is usually strong. If the beast-hunting monk fails to succeed in a sneak attack, he will be in a hard fight. Needless to say, the benefits of one trade-off and one trade-off are negligible.
It can be seen that the Golden Sword must have been ordered by a beast-hunting monk.
Since the other party exceeded the agreed date and failed to come to pay the remaining payment to get the sword, I am afraid that he has died at the mouth of a monster, otherwise he would not sit back and watch the 20% deposit being swallowed up.
As soon as I walked out of the store, I heard voices coming from behind me.
"Close the door quickly, don't sell the things yet... What, you sold the Golden Sword!"
You can hear how heartbroken the other person is from his voice.
A large amount of spiritual stones were just lost.
Lu Zhong secretly thought that it was very risky. If he had tried to negotiate the price just now, he might not have been able to buy the Golden Sword.
