Binhaifang City, in a low-level cave opened by the Corpse Ghost Sect.
Li Xuangang was sitting cross-legged inside. After feeling the concentration of spiritual energy inside, he smiled with satisfaction. Then he checked the cave's restrictions.
After casting a spell to open the magic circle that came with the cave, Li Xuangang took out his own Xueluo magic circle. After laying out the eighteen formation flags, he also activated the magic circle.
It's not that I don't believe in the magic circle provided by the Corpse Ghost Sect, it's just that people's hearts are sinister and they have to be on guard.
After doing this, Li Xuangang felt at ease.
Then he opened the Yin-Naking Gourd and released the refined corpse. Then a tall, slightly embarrassed figure appeared in front of Li Xuangang.
Looking at the refined corpse in front of him, Li Xuangang felt quite hurt.
In the battle at Black Wind Ridge, Li Xuangang had no suitable defensive weapon, so he had to control the corpse to block attacks for himself.
Although the zombie is known for its strong body, it suffered too many attacks and still left many horrific wounds.
Li Xuangang knew that the reason for this situation was that firstly, he had not been practicing the corpse refining skill for a long time and was not very skilled in controlling the corpse refining technique. Secondly, the realm of corpse refining was too low and he was only at the third level of Qi refining.
Originally, Li Xuangang was going to directly put the refined corpse in the Nayin Gourd and use evil energy to cultivate it to the fourth level of Qi Refining before he was ready to practice the technique of controlling the corpse. Unexpectedly, he encountered an accident in Heifeng Ridge.
The clothes on the body of the refining corpse were chopped to pieces, and there were huge cuts everywhere on the body that showed the bones.
In order to carefully examine these wounds, Li Xuangang moved his head closer and discovered that the bones of the corpse had a faint metallic luster.
Seeing this phenomenon, Li Xuangang took out the Hardware Corpse Refining Technique from his storage bag and flipped through it quickly.
After about half a stick of incense had passed, Li Xuangang put down the Hardware Corpse Refining Technique in his hand and put it into his storage bag.
The Hardware Corpse Refining Art is a spell that specializes in the practice of corpse refining. It not only contains techniques for refining and controlling corpses, but also introduces a lot of common sense about corpse refining.
Li Xuangang now suspects that the walking corpse he got in Xuanfeng City may be a special walking corpse described in the Hardware Corpse Refining Art, that is, an armored corpse.
The armored corpse is a variant of the walking corpse. Compared with the ordinary refined corpse, the armored corpse is taller, the bones have a metallic luster, the flesh is harder, and it is infinitely stronger.
Iron-armored corpse is what this walking corpse is called when it is in the Qi Refining Realm. Once Li Xuangang can train it to the Foundation-Building Realm, it will evolve into a bronze-armored corpse.
Now Li Xuangang understands a little bit, no wonder he used this refined corpse to block so many attacks for himself, but it was not completely destroyed, but the damage to his body was slightly more serious.
Many monks who practice corpse refining will look for this kind of walking corpse with special talents when refining their own corpses. Although the armored corpse is not the top type of corpse refining, it is better than the average quality corpse. It was much better, at least for Li Xuangang, his refined corpse, which was suspected to be an armored corpse, had the value of cultivating.
The original clothes on the corpse were damaged, so Li Xuangang simply tore them all off, then took out a set of his own clothes from the storage bag and put them on. However, due to the big difference in body shape, it looked a bit awkward after putting them on. nondescript.
Li Xuangang originally wanted to deal with the wounds on the corpse refining body, but after thinking for a long time, he still felt that there was no way to do it. This was not mentioned in the Hardware Refining Corpse Art.
However, Li Xuangang thought of Wang Yeqi, a disciple of the Corpse Ghost Sect who sold him the Yin-Nagging Gourd last time. Didn't he happen to be in Binhaifang City too?
So Li Xuangang decided to wait three months before going out to find him and ask him if he had any way to repair it.
In addition, Li Xuangang also wanted to confirm whether his corpse was the armored corpse described in the Hardware Corpse Refining Technique.
After thinking about this, Li Xuangang put the refined corpse back into the Yin-Nagging Gourd, preparing to nourish it with the evil spirit inside.
After the battle at Black Wind Ridge, Li Xuangang discovered that having a corpse refining body was indeed very beneficial to him. It seemed that he would need to pay more attention to the corpse refining technique in the future.
But when he thought about the resources that would be consumed in cultivating the corpse in the future, Li Xuangang felt a twinge of pain.
For example, there is a kind of armor worn by the corpse, which can improve the defense of the corpse a lot, but it is also expensive.
Li Xuangang touched his forehead and felt a headache.
After dealing with the matter of corpse refining, Li Xuangang put the corpse refining matter aside for the time being.
He took out a bottle of Spring Dew Pill. Spring Dew Pill is a kind of pill suitable for monks in the early and middle stages of Qi refining. After Li Xuangang decided to come to this cave for three months of retreat, he used the spirit stone to buy a batch in Baicao Pavilion.
I just got more than two hundred spiritual stones, and there is no shortage of spiritual stones for the time being. However, after buying the Spring Dew Pill and paying the rent of the cave for a year, there are not many left.
Without further ado, Li Xuangang took the Spring Dew Pill and began to use Jin Geng Wuxiang Jue to refine the power of the Spring Dew Pill. At the same time, the spiritual energy in the cave also began to gather towards Li Xuangang, and was absorbed into his body bit by bit. Finally,
Stored in Dantian.
...
Time passed little by little, and three months passed in the blink of an eye. Li Xuangang woke up from his practice.
The past three months of cultivation have been quite smooth. I have laid a solid foundation for the sixth level of Qi Refining and am one step closer to the seventh level of Qi Refining.
Li Xuangang estimated that he would be able to enter the seventh level of Qi refining in about four years.
He stood up and moved around, then calculated the time and found that the time agreed with his eighth uncle Li Changji was still four or five days away. However, Li Xuangang was not prepared to continue practicing. Instead, he took out the black water shield and took advantage of this time to practice hard.
Ji Lian became familiar with this magical weapon.
Five days later, when Li Xuangang came out of the rented cave, the Black Water Shield had been refined by him and he could use it skillfully.
The successful control of the Black Water Shield greatly improved Li Xuangang's strength.
Li Xuangang left here and walked to Baicao Pavilion according to his memory.
When Li Xuangang arrived at Baicao Pavilion, he did not see his eighth uncle Li Changji as promised.
After asking the clan members in the pavilion, I learned that the eighth uncle stayed for a while after coming back today, and then went out again. When he went out, he also asked the people in the store to tell him to wait for him in Baicao Pavilion when he came, and he
I'll probably be back before nightfall.
Knowing this situation, Li Xuangang thanked the clansman who conveyed the news, then walked through the lobby to the backyard and entered the room prepared for him three months ago.
Sitting down in the room, Li Xuangang took out the Hardware Corpse Refining Art, and then began to understand the corpse control technique above.
While meditating, I waited for my eighth uncle Li Changji to come back.
The art of corpse control is broad and profound. Li Xuangang looked deeper and deeper, and learned more details about corpse control techniques. If the environment here was not suitable, and his corpse refining had not yet recovered, Li Xuangang would have wanted to try it.
Various corpse control techniques recorded.
So unknowingly, time passed quietly.
By the time Li Xuangang came to his senses, night had come quietly. He secretly said something bad, quickly put away the Hardware Corpse Refining Art, got up and left the room.
When he opened the door, Li Changji was waiting for him in the yard.
Li Xuangang quickly bowed and said:
"My uncle, please forgive me. I have obtained a new spell and I am studying it. I didn't want to but I missed the time."
Li Changji showed a little smile on his face, waved his hands and said:
"It doesn't matter. It's a good thing to study magic. My Li family should be like this. Monks take cultivation as their foundation, but fighting with others is inevitable. If you want to improve your ability to fight with others, I support it."
When Li Xuangang heard this, the last trace of anxiety in his heart disappeared.
In fact, when Li Xuangang stepped out of the room and found Li Changji waiting for him, he knew that the eighth uncle should not be angry, because there was no magic circle in his room to isolate his spiritual consciousness. With the cultivation of the eighth uncle in the foundation building period, of course he knew
What was he doing inside? Since he didn't interrupt himself, he was still waiting for himself to wake up naturally. From this point of view, the eighth uncle was very tolerant to the younger generation.
The reason why Li Xuangang was afraid of Li Changji's scolding before was because of Li Changzhi, another elder in the family who was in the foundation-building period.
Li Changzhi ranks seventh in the eldest generation and is the only second-level weapon refiner in the family. He is different from Li Changji. Li Changji stays in Binhaifang City all year round. Li Xuangang has met Li Xuangang before, except for every clan sacrifice.
I was not familiar with this eighth uncle, but the seventh uncle Li Changzhi was different. Li Changzhi often stayed on Mount Taiqiu, and Li Xuangang had many interactions with him.
Although Li Changzhi was very supportive of the younger members of the clan, he was also known throughout the family for his bad temper. Some clan members even joked that learning to refine weapons from him was the most terrifying task in the family.
When Li Xuangang was still staying in Taiqiu Mountain, it would often happen that Li Changzhi would catch his apprentice and start scolding him. His voice was so loud that the entire Taiqiu Mountain could hear it.
Thinking of this, Li Xuangang couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for his second brother Li Xuantian. Wasn't he currently studying weapon refining with Qishu Gong in the mine in Xijincheng?
"Xuan Gang, I hope you can achieve some success by learning alchemy from me. You have to know that it is not easy for a family to train an alchemist. Among the people who studied alchemy with me before you, there are several people with your name.
Seniors, including you, brothers of the Xuan generation, but they are all stuck at the threshold of a first-level alchemist, and it will consume resources for the family to pile up every alchemy apprentice enough to reach a first-level alchemy master."
"Even if you don't talk about it from a family perspective, if you become an alchemist, you can earn resources for your own cultivation through alchemy. You are only at the sixth level of Qi refining now, and the resources you have to consume to reach the ninth level of Qi refining are not
It’s a small amount, not to mention resources for the foundation building period. Do you understand what I mean?”
Li Xuangang replied respectfully:
"Xuan Gang knows that he will do his best to live up to his eighth uncle's expectations."
Li Changji looked at Li Xuangang and said:
"The attitude is sincere, and the cultivation level is not bad. The Xuan generation has produced several talents. This time I met Brother Qi when I went back. He was full of praise for Xuan Tian. I think you are also good."
"Thank you for your eighth uncle's praise. Xuan Gang is not worthy of it. He is still far behind his second brother."
Li Changji looked at Li Xuangang and found that although his attitude was respectful, he could still remain neither humble nor overbearing in front of himself, a foundation-building monk, and he nodded secretly in his heart.
"You don't need to belittle yourself. Among the Xuan generation, you are also considered to be the most qualified in the family. However, what happens next depends on yourself, in addition to the help of the family."
Li Xuangang nodded in agreement, and then heard Li Changji say:
"follow me."
Then Li Changji turned around and walked towards a rockery in the backyard, and Li Xuangang hurriedly followed behind.
