According to the records of Tai Gang Sword Jue, this sword is integrated into one body, and the secret technique of sword flying can not only greatly increase the escape speed, but also the sword light that surrounds the whole body is filled with all the magic energy of the caster, so its power is far from basic.
His swordsmanship is comparable.
If the enemy is in the void near the escape light, they will be affected to varying degrees. If they approach forcibly, their skin and flesh will be torn apart. Therefore, once this technique is used, it can still integrate offense and defense to a certain extent.
Its only flaw is probably that the use of this technique is a high-power valve that is all-or-nothing. It consumes too much mana. With Liu Ming's current mana, he simply cannot hold on for too long.
Once this method fails to attack, it is equivalent to sending yourself in front of the opponent, so you must use it with great caution.
For Liu Ming, his sword-controlling skills have only reached the stage of modest success. If he wants to exert the true power of sword-controlling skills, he still needs to go through continuous actual combat experience.
After he had basically mastered both secret techniques, he immediately decided to go to the market to purchase some alchemy materials and continue to refine some elixirs.
With a change of thought, he put away the small red sword and immediately left the cave, stepping on the black clouds and heading towards the Xuan Palace.
After accepting a mission to collect elixirs from the Xuan Bang, he left the sect and headed towards a certain canyon.
In the next two or three months, he successively took on some tasks with ordinary difficulty and low contribution points, but far away from the sect. However, every time he went, there would be a not-so-noticed restaurant nearby.
Small and medium-sized markets.
After selling the more than twenty Condensation Pills in his hand in batches, he also purchased a lot of auxiliary materials needed for refining.
As for these sect tasks, for him, whose strength was already not weaker than that of the Crystal Transformation stage, he naturally completed them easily and successfully without any effort.
One day three months later, Liu Ming was sitting on a brown wooden chair on the third floor of a large shop in Menfang City, Taiqing, looking thoughtful.
In the past few days, he has visited many shops, large and small, in Taiqingmen Neifang City that he has never visited before, and he has swept away all the Qing Ning Guo that meets the fire requirements.
If other auxiliary ingredients had not been prepared, but some Qing Ning Guo was still missing, he would not go to this relatively large store to inquire again.
But what made him happy was that the shopkeeper said that there were indeed more than a dozen green condensate fruits that had been heated for about two hundred years in the store. If these dozen were included, it would be just enough to use up the remaining auxiliary materials to refine the elixir.
"This fellow Taoist has been waiting for a long time. This is the Qing Ning Guo you want."
After about half a cup of tea, a middle-aged man in his fifties wearing a gray gown came upstairs holding a yellow jade box and respectfully placed the jade box in front of Liu Ming.
.
"Thank you." Liu Ming stood up and returned the gift, then immediately took the jade box and patted it gently with one hand.
After the faint yellow spirit pattern on the jade box flashed, the lid of the box slid open, revealing more than ten fist-sized fruits with a green light.
For Liu Ming, who had seen hundreds of green condensation fruits, there was no need to identify them carefully. He just glanced at them with his eyes and determined that these green condensation fruits were indeed about two hundred years old.
But he still grabbed a green condensate fruit with one hand, looked at it carefully before his eyes, and then carefully put it back into the jade box.
"These are indeed Qing Ning Guo that have been heated for two hundred years. May I ask the shopkeeper, how much do these Qing Ning Guo cost in total?" Liu Ming looked up at the middle-aged man and asked in a deep voice.
"There are thirteen in total, each with six thousand spiritual stones, making a total of seventy-eight thousand spiritual stones." The middle-aged man said with a naive smile.
"Seventy-eight thousand spirit stones..." Liu Ming's face darkened, looking noncommittal.
"Fellow Taoist, if you really want it, just give me 70,000 spirit stones. With all due respect, it seems that this is not the first time that you have come to our store to purchase Qing Ning Guo. I don't know what you intend to refine when purchasing Qing Ning Guo."
Growing elixirs? Our store also purchases all kinds of elixirs all the year round. If you have finished elixirs, you can come to our store to sell them. The price will definitely satisfy you." The middle-aged man gave Liu Ming a happy call.
Discount, and then asked softly with a smile on his face.
"I'm just purchasing raw materials for a certain alchemy master in the sect, and I don't know what kind of elixir he wants to refine." Liu Ming frowned inwardly, but replied calmly on the outside.
"I am familiar with most of the alchemy masters in this sect, but I don't know..."
"Shopkeeper, I have been instructed not to reveal the identity of this great master to outsiders. Well, I have important matters to attend to, so I will leave first." Liu Ming did not wait for the middle-aged man to finish speaking.
As soon as the jade box was put away, he took out a cloth bag containing spiritual stones from his waist and placed it on the table. After giving a slight bow, he hurried downstairs and left the shop in a hurry.
Although he had purchased a large amount of supplementary materials from other markets with great care, because the Qing Ning Guo was only available in Zongmen Market nearby, he purchased it in large quantities here, but obviously this move was too much.
Eye-catching, it has attracted the attention of interested people.
After some calculations in Liu Ming's mind, he decided that he would no longer be able to buy this elixir so recklessly in Zongneifang Market.
After returning to the cave, he went into seclusion again for more than a month before refining all the remaining materials on hand.
At this time, there were as many as hundreds of condensation pills in the Xumi snail on his waist, including seven mortal-grade pills and one earth-grade pill.
Liu Ming played with the elixir that had four elixir lines, and immediately pondered for a while.
At this moment, he has a clear understanding of the value of high-grade condensation pills in the liquid condensation stage. Basically, high-grade condensation pills can be sold for around 50,000 to 60,000 spiritual stones, which is almost ten times more than ordinary level condensation pills.
However, for other similar condensate-level elixirs that increase mana, the price of ordinary elixirs is about the same as that of condensation elixirs. However, after they are released, the price of ordinary condensate-level elixirs can only be sold for about 30,000 spirit stones, which is far away.
The price of the imported condensation elixir is not as high, it is only several times the price of its own ordinary elixir.
During this time, he also asked a middle-aged shopkeeper in a shop in Zongwaifang City about the purchase price of the local Leng Ning Dan.
As a result, the shopkeeper, who seemed to have the late-stage cultivation of liquid condensation, immediately grabbed his hand with great excitement, and without hesitation offered the sky-high price of 500,000 spirit stones, and he was full of negotiable words.
This surprised Liu Ming.
If he hadn't hurriedly said what he just asked casually, he might not have been able to leave easily.
After this experience, he made some inquiries in other markets and finally found out what was going on.
It turns out that there are many practitioners who rely on swallowing large amounts of elixirs to increase their magic power. Because they take too many elixirs, their bodies have developed a certain resistance to various elixirs. If they want to rely on the power of similar elixirs to break through the bottleneck in the future, the effect will be great.
It will be greatly weakened, or even completely ineffective.
As for the condensation pill, very few people have refined it in the first place, and even fewer can refine it to a higher level. To a certain extent, taking it is a better way to break through the bottleneck.
elixir.
I don’t know how many cultivators or cultivating families who have failed to attack a certain bottleneck are thirsty for these off-the-shelf elixirs, and even go to the market all year round to pay sky-high prices to buy them.
As a result, imported condensation elixirs will be much more expensive than other common elixirs of the same type.
On the one hand, the local-grade elixirs are extremely effective, and on the other hand, they are very rare. Therefore, their prices have increased even more, and they can be sold at such an unbelievable sky-high price in the market.
For this reason, Liu Ming was even more afraid to let others know that he had the ability to refine condensed single-grade elixirs. Otherwise, even if the Taiqing Sect knew about this, the best result would be to keep him in captivity and keep him in captivity day and night.
Let him make elixirs.
Naturally, Liu Ming would never do something like this that would benefit the entire sect at the expense of one of his own.
After some thought, he put all the elixirs in his hand into the jade box.
He has decided that next time he will go to a large market outside the sect where a large amount of Qing Ning Fruit can be collected.
In this way, whether the elixir is sold or the raw materials are purchased, it is all done outside Taiqing Gate, and it will not attract anyone's attention.
After he had finished thinking, he immediately left the cave and drove the clouds towards the Xuandian again.
This time, after Liu Ming made a selection on the Xuanban, he accepted a mission that was outside the area affected by the Taiqing Sect's influence.
The specific content of the task is to be located in a sect's weapon refining shop in a remote large city. The time limit is one year, and you can return to the sect within one year.
The reason is that the outer disciple who was originally in charge needs to leave for a period of time due to something and will return within a year at most, so he needs to temporarily find another outer disciple to take care of him on his behalf.
However, because this task does not give many contribution points and takes a long time, although it was posted a month ago, no one has taken it.
However, such a rather unpopular sect mission, for Liu Ming now, exactly meets the standards in his heart, and one year is enough for him to complete the purchase of materials, refining elixirs and selling elixirs in Zongwaifang City.
A series of things happened and I made a lot of money.
After receiving this sect's mission, he immediately asked a deacon disciple and learned that to go to Changyangfang City, he must use the sect's special long-distance teleportation array, and then pass through several teleportation arrays from other forces.
, to reach the city where the mission is located.
He immediately returned to the cave, sorted out the required materials, and planned to set out the next day.
Early on the next morning, at the foot of a relatively hidden peak in the Wanling Mountains, a black cloud flashed past, and a young man in green robe fell from the black cloud.
It was Liu Ming.
At this moment, it was still just dawn, and he arrived at the special teleportation point in this remote place.
At a glance, one could see that at the foot of the mountain peak was a seemingly ordinary stone palace that was seven to eight feet high. At the door were two giant stone statues of blue giants holding huge axes. The door was closed, and the surface was covered with a vast white restriction.
