Although the branches of the apricot tree are much harder than ordinary trees, they cannot stop the slashing of the Three Yangs and One Qi Sword. The apricot tree itself is only a spiritual tree that absorbs the spiritual energy of the world and reproduces. It is not the kind of tree that can attack and defend.
, and even possessed plants with certain intelligence, so Ning Chen had almost no obstacles in the process of collecting spiritual fruits except for chopping branches.
Seeing that Ning Chen could collect one or two spiritual fruits with just one swing of his sword, the Lingyan monkey next to him almost went crazy. While frantically blocking Ning Chen, he hurriedly called for stronger Lingyan.
The monkey returns.
Ning Chen ignored it and withstood the attacks of a dozen early to mid-level Xuan level spirit rock monkeys, spinning around the apricot tree and collecting all the apricot fruits that appeared in his sight into his storage ring.
Ning Chen chopped off two more spiritual fruits with one sword stroke, waved his hand and put it away in the storage ring, thinking in his mind, "As a human being, leave a little bit for the monkeys to see each other in the future. If there are still some spiritual fruits on the tree,
These monkeys will not go crazy, and they will not dare to leave easily."
Thinking of this section, the number of apricot fruits in Ning Chen's storage ring has exceeded one hundred. At this time, several screams piercing the clouds and cracking the sky came, but it was two Lingyan monkeys hurriedly riding through the clouds and mist.
came back.
Ning Chen chuckled and ignored the thirty or forty spiritual fruits on the tree. He sank into the ground and disappeared without a trace under the incredulous eyes of the spiritual rock monkeys.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Of course, the Lingyan Monkeys didn't know about the magical magic of Earth Escape, which is spread in the legends of the monk world. They could only see that Ning Chen disappeared into the ground, so dozens of Lingyan Monkeys were together next to the apricot tree.
He began to dig a hole, his sharp claws piercing the air, and the stone debris dug out from the place where Ning Chen disappeared flew away. After a while, a large hole was dug out that was dozens of feet deep.
Of course, those Lingyan monkeys found nothing, because at this time Ning Chen had already arrived at the place agreed with Kang Yixi, which was halfway up the mountain more than 20 miles away from the valley.
Ning Chen arrived first, and after waiting for a while, Kang Yixi flew in from another direction. Fortunately, Kang Yixi was not weak, and Ning Chen was not slow in his actions, so he was just a little embarrassed, but not
Injuried.
"How is it?" Kang Yixi's eyes lit up.
"Fortunately, I lived up to my fate and got a total of 106 pills. Each of us got 53 pills." Ning Chen said with a smile.
Spirit fruits of the same grade are not as valuable as spirit plants, but the difference is not too big. More than fifty Xuan-grade high-grade apricot fruits are a considerable fortune no matter where they are.
Ning Chen put fifty-three apricot nuts into a magic bag and waved them to Kang Yixi.
Kang Yixi stretched out his hand to take it, and after checking it with his spiritual sense, he said with a smile, "Thank you, fellow Daoist Ning. The Earth Escape Technique is really amazing."
If other Ning Yuan Stage monks cooperated with him, they would probably be noticed by the monkeys who stayed behind as soon as they approached the valley. By then, the two Lingyan monkeys who were chasing him would return quickly after receiving the warning, and they would not be able to get a single fruit at all.
.
"Excessive praise." Ning Chen nodded and smiled.
Kang Yixi put away the magic bag, pondered for a moment and said, "Using the apricot hu fruit as the main material, you can refine the high-grade Xuan-level Yin Yun Dan. The main purpose is to increase the accumulation of true energy of the monks in the middle and late stages of Ning Yuan and boost their cultivation.
Skill.
I know an alchemist next to me. Well, he is actually from Feixian Sect, but he was separated due to some reasons five hundred years ago.
I am now going to ask him to refine the elixir. If Fellow Daoist Ning is interested, we can go together, or we can exchange the spiritual fruit in your hand for the elixir."
Kang Yixi said sincerely, "I also have some selfish motives. The Yin Yun Dan is of great use to our Feixian Sect. The reward that fellow Taoist Ning paid in exchange for the elixir can be exchanged with Senior Brother Yang."
Generally, when you ask an alchemist to make an elixir, you need to prepare two copies of materials or a reward of equal value. One part is used as a reward, and the other part is used to refine the elixir for you, and we are not responsible for the success or failure.
Even some masters with higher levels and higher success rates require even higher remuneration ratios!
The same goes for refining weapons and painting talismans, with at least 100% profit, so skilled weapon refiners and alchemists are all rich.
As Kang Yixi said, if Ning Chen wants to turn the fifty-three apricot nuts in his hand into corresponding elixirs, in addition to collecting other matching materials, at least twenty-six of them must be paid to the alchemist.
As a reward, Kang Yixi can buy this part back from the alchemist.
As he said, he and the alchemist came from the same school, so he thought he could get some discounts.
These are all rules on the surface, and Kang Yixi has nothing to hide.
"That's it..." Ning Chen thought for a while. In fact, there were quite a lot of spiritual plants in his storage ring. Most of them were collected in the underwater world. He planned to use them when he learned alchemy in the future, but he never made alchemy.
I got started, so I kept saving it.
Therefore, although these dozens of apricot nuts are valuable, they are not that important to him. Moreover, he does not know when he will be able to refine the high-grade Xuan-level elixir. Will it be better to replace it with the readily available Yinyun elixir?
Quite worth it.
Seeing Ning Chen thinking, Kang Yixi continued, "The value of other materials for Yin Yun Dan is not high. I have quite a few here, and I can exchange some for Fellow Daoist Ning."
"Okay." Ning Chen smiled.
So Ning Chen exchanged seven apricot fruits for a batch of middle and lower-grade Xuan-level spiritual plants.
Just after the exchange was completed, the two heard a sharp cry that penetrated the clouds and cracked the stone. A gray figure rushed out from the clouds and mist covering the valley. Soon it came between the clouds and was suspended in the air. Ning Chen looked at it from a distance.
, but saw a monkey with a ferocious face, full of anger, and a pair of golden eyes, wandering around, as if trying to find the little thief who stole the apricot fruit!
"Hiss! So strong!" Kang Yixi couldn't help but his eyes narrowed, and he immediately restrained his breath and disappeared.
Ning Chen's heart skipped a beat. The momentum of this monkey king was not much different from that of the dragon that he and Shen Fei killed that day. They were both at the peak of the Mysterious level and could step into the Earth level at any time.
"Let's go!" Ning Chen whispered. As he was speaking, the monkey king suddenly hissed and rushed towards the west of the valley. A sudden burst of momentum erupted there, and a cold shout echoed through the void, "Dead monkey, look for it."
beat!"
"Huh?" Ning Chen exclaimed. He turned out to be a monk in the late stage of Ning Yuan. He didn't know why he appeared here.
Then one person and one monkey started fighting, and then the sound of "Zhi Zhi Zhi Zhi!" sounded. The remaining four late Xuan level and a dozen early Xuan level Lingyan monkeys suddenly rushed out of the valley, and countless sword energy was drowned.
The location of the previous late-stage Ning Yuan monk.
