When Bai Ran was thinking secretly in the bedroom, his face suddenly changed, and he turned around and walked out.
When he came to the gate of the cave that had been closed for many years, he saw at a glance that there were seven or eight transmission notes of different colors in the forbidden area in front of the cave, just like headless flies running around everywhere.
Seeing this scene, Bai Ran raised his eyebrows, took out the prohibition token, uttered the word "accept", and all the transmission notes flew into his hands like an amnesty.
Bai Ran did not leave here, but took it calmly and checked them one by one.
Less than half of these transmission notes are words of congratulations from the monks in the alchemy stage who live nearby, and the other part are actually words of attraction from several large and small organizations. Some are willing to use their seats as guest elders, and some are not.
They used rare treasures as the hiring fee, and one even offered a pair of stunning maids as a gift to attract him.
Hearing these contents, Bai Ran rolled his eyes secretly.
Those monks in the alchemy stage responded humbly to the transmission notes, while those from large and small organizations directly rejected them.
He doesn't think that he can sit back and relax when he enters the pill formation stage. It's better to spend some time to stabilize his lower state and continue to stay calm!
In the days that followed, Bai Ran visited the caves of several nearby alchemy monks again and again, and humbly asked some questions that should be paid attention to after entering the alchemy phase.
Because what he asked about was not a secret, these monks were happy to give him some pointers during casual conversations.
Let Bai Ran gain a lot!
However, these monks also admired Bai Ran for maintaining such a youthful appearance after forming the elixir.
After all, unless they are born with extraordinary talents, or like Bai Ran, who have many magical medicines to assist them in their cultivation, most monks are already quite old when they form elixirs.
Even if the longevity is greatly increased after the elixir is formed, the face will not return to the appearance of youth. At most, the degree of aging will be greatly reduced in the future.
Of course, the exercises that some people practice have miraculous effects on their appearance. Some people can still look as young as boys and girls after forming the elixir.
Bai Ran didn't want to be precious this time, so he immediately used the few fixing pills he had to exchange some rare items from their hands, and we were all very happy.
After several such interactions, although Bai Ran and these people could not be called old friends, they finally became familiar with each other.
We can say that you are Taoist friends and I are brothers, but we get along pretty well.
During this period, Bai Ran worked together to refine the "Green Brilliance Sword" and looked around for materials to refine magic weapons and third-level puppets.
There are many materials that can be used to refine magic weapons, and the refining methods are even more bizarre and varied.
With the same amount of time and sweat spent on cultivation, a magic weapon made from good materials has a vastly different power and greater potential for improvement than one made from ordinary materials.
And even if the same materials are used, if the secret method of refining similar magic weapons is different, the power and effectiveness will be very different.
Therefore, in addition to some general magic weapon refining methods that everyone knows, there are some special refining secret methods that each sect and its strength will not easily leak.
But this does not mean that with the best materials and the best method of refining the treasure, this magic weapon will definitely be extremely powerful after it is released.
The true power of a magic weapon mainly depends on the continuous cultivation and nourishment of the monks who refine it in the soul.
If the owner of the magic weapon is not willing to spend time on it, the power of the rare treasure will not be as powerful as an ordinary magic weapon. This is also normal.
The "Qingzhu Peak Cloud Sword" that Bai Ran wanted to refine was taken out of context, and the main material needed to be refined from thousands of years of spiritual bamboo.
It turned out that this material, with the ripening function of Bairan's vial, was very easy to obtain after spending some time. But he did not take the ordinary bamboos into consideration. Instead, he wanted to find some legendary exotic bamboos.
, used as the main material for refining magic weapons.
As a result, Bai Ran has been squatting in Tianxing City for a long time, but he has never been able to find a variety that satisfies him.
Although he was feeling a little anxious, Bai Ran held the opinion that he would rather be alone and had no choice but to put aside the work of refining the magic weapon for the time being!
Fortunately, he still had the "Green Brilliance Sword" and several talismans for protection, so he was not worried for the time being!
Unable to refine the magic weapon, Bai Ranran naturally turned his attention to making new puppets.
According to what is said in the Puppet Scripture, the third-level puppet's full blow is equivalent to that of a monk in the middle stage of foundation building. The materials for refining are becoming more and more precious, and there are several puppets of different shapes.
After careful consideration, Bai Ran chose an ape-shaped puppet made mainly of wooden materials.
This kind of puppet, although the required ironwood age has increased a lot, and rare sky crystal wood needs to be mixed in when refining.
But since they are all made of wood, Bairan can naturally be spawned with green liquid, which can greatly reduce the cost.
But even so, other auxiliary materials for the same upgrade are still a huge amount. In addition, the number of controllable puppets has increased, and the total cost is naturally even more astonishing.
Although these spiritual stones did not ruin Bai Ran's family fortune, they did allow him to become impoverished all over again after gathering the materials.
In desperation, Bai Ran had no choice but to release some of the rare materials of the fifth-level monsters again to temporarily relieve the dilemma.
But Bai Ran didn't expect that even if he was extremely careful, the release of the information would still attract the attention of interested people.
On this day, he had just completed a transaction with a small merchant from out of town with some materials. When he was about to return to the cave, he was stopped by a beautiful girl on the street.
"Is this the elder Bai? My wife invites the older generation to the Qinghe Teahouse not far away for a chat! Can the elder generation go there as a favor? If not, the little girl will be severely punished by the madam."
A girl said charmingly.
"I don't like it!" Bai Ran glanced at the girl and refused without hesitation.
He could tell at a glance that although this woman was only in the Qi refining stage, she seemed to have practiced some kind of charm technique, and she quietly used it on him without knowing the importance. Naturally, she would not give the other party a good look.
After hearing what Bai Ran said, the sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl became a little panicked and begged hurriedly:
"Senior Bai! If you don't go, it will be difficult for me to do business with you. Even if I beg you..."
Before the girl could finish speaking, Bai Ran turned around and left with an indifferent expression.
Although he didn't know who the other party was, he had no interest in meeting a strange woman.
"Senior Bai, wait a minute! The junior Miaoyin Sect Fan Jingmei is here to pay respects to Senior Bai. The control is not strict, and Lian'er was excused just now. I hope the seniors will forgive me!"
Just as Bai Ran left the girl behind and took two steps out, a sweet female voice came from behind.
He couldn't help but stop and look back.
At some point, a woman wearing a gauze appeared next to the girl. Although her face could not be seen clearly, her skin was as white as snow, her hair was black and shiny, and her hair was tied up high.
His bright eyes were as clear as water, looking at Bai Ran without blinking.
"I don't know, Madam. If you have any questions, please keep it short. Bai has to go back to his hometown to practice!" Bai Ran said calmly, with a bit of a repulsive tone in his words.
The woman who called herself "Fan Jingmei" was startled when she heard this, but immediately said with a chuckle:
"Old Bai is already so straightforward, so the little girl said it straight away. Did the older generation recently sell a large amount of rare monster materials? We are very interested in these materials and want to have a good discussion with the older generation. But here
People talk a lot, why don't you, the older generation, come with me to a quiet room in a teahouse to talk?"
After hearing the other person's self-narration and invitation, Bai Ran narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman carefully for a while. When the other person's eyes showed shyness, he said stiffly:
"Okay, you lead the way!"
"Thank you, the older generation, for the compliment. Please come here, the older generation!" The woman's eyes showed a bit of joy, and she hurriedly took a step forward, while the girl followed with a dejected look.
However, although the girl was walking in front, she still couldn't help but recall and took another peek. She happened to meet Bai Ran's eyes. When she was about to frighten the girl named Lian'er, she hurriedly turned back to Yuhuan.
There was a lot of blush at the base of the ears.
This made Bai Ran look half-smiling, and she felt a little dumbfounded in her heart.
The teahouse that the Miaoyinmen woman mentioned was not far away. After a while, Bai Ran followed them into an attic where a huge "tea" flag was hung.
There were not many people drinking tea at this time. One of them, a middle-aged man who was making genuine tea, saw the woman and the girl coming in. He hurriedly ran to him and said:
"Uncle, the room has been reserved! You can go in with your guests!"
"Okay, you will stay outside the door then." Fan Jingmei warned lightly.
"yes"
Then, under the leadership of the middle-aged man, the two women and Bai Ran went up to the second floor and entered an elegant single room.
There was actually an old man in gray clothes inside the house, who was calmly brewing a pot of hot tea in full swing. When Bai Ran and others came in, he still didn't even move his eyelids.
