In the Huoyuan Cave, Lingyun's sword light swirled and quickly swept across the caves.
In each cave, there is a rare treasure placed inside, emitting a faint mysterious glow.
I still remember that the last time I came here, Ling Yunpo was almost dazzled and wanted to take away all the treasures.
However, the Ling Yunpo today is no longer the countryman Ling Yunpo, but the Ling Yunpo who has seen the world.
He shouldn’t even look at ordinary magic weapons, okay?
The first thing to skip is the flying sword. Now Lingyunpo has three swords. The natal sword is the Qingping Sword, which cannot be changed. The secondary sword number one, the Leiqi Sword, is the Mengyin anchor, and it can also restrain the heavenly tribulation and metal and iron objects, so there is no need to change it.
The second sword in his off-hand position is the Wanzhu Sword, which is fast and flexible and can separate sword energy, so Lingyunpo has no plan to change it.
In this case, unless you encounter a top-grade eleventh-level immortal sword like the Tianyuan Yiqi Sword, there is no need to waste an opportunity.
The next things are the Taoist scriptures and the Purple Mansion secret medicine... skip them all.
What I need now is a magic weapon!
Passing by the Great Sun True Yang Fire, Ling Yunpo ignored it without hesitation.
After all, there are only two chances. If there is a better magic weapon to block the heavenly calamity, the Great Sun True Yang Fire can be given up!
When passing by the magic weapon, there was no need for Lingyunpo to remind him. After scanning it, Kunlun Mirror directly commented:
"The Ice Soul Divine Pearl can be activated with True Essence to emit the Ice Soul Divine Light, which can restrain most earth, fire, poison and flame objects. However, this item consumes a lot of True Essence, and its function overlaps with your Yunlangshuang Ice Pot."
"Then don't do it." Ling Yunpo said coldly.
"How about that magic weapon?" Qing Ping Jian said with a smile, "The Pure Bottle of Sweet Rain and True Dew. Drinking it can restore your true essence and regenerate your flesh and bones."
"No need." Ling Yunpo sighed and said, "Although the Ganlin True Dew can be refined faster, it still needs to be refined. I don't think the Heavenly Tribulation will give me the time."
He went from the top cave to the bottom cave and emphasized again to Kunlun Mirror and Qingping Sword:
"What I'm looking for this time are magic weapons that have a fast activation speed and consume little true energy, preferably high-level magic weapons that can attack or defend over a large area."
"Is there a possibility that the magic weapon you described is actually Xu Yinglian?" Kunlun Jing joked.
"Are you sick, Jing?" Ling Yunpo said speechlessly, "You can't let others interfere with your tribulation, otherwise you will be affected by karma!"
"Of course I know." Kunlun Jing said aggrievedly, "I was just joking."
Ling Yunpo smiled expressionlessly a few times:
"Hahaha, you're really humorous. Anyway, the problem now is that the magic weapons that meet the above requirements are basically not of high rank."
"A high-ranking magic weapon that does not meet the above requirements."
"Of course." Qing Ping Jian replied, "You are now on the third floor of Huo Yuan Cave. The magic weapons here are suitable for cultivators at the Huafu level."
"And the first-grade golden elixir tribulation you are about to endure is far more powerful than the defensive capabilities of the Huafu-level magic weapon. You are right when you say that these magic weapons are not of high rank. It can only be said that there are very few that are suitable for you in this level of the Fire Origin Cave."
"Indeed." Ling Yunpo nodded and said, "If it really doesn't work, I'll just take the fragment of the Thunder Method... Huh?"
When he reached the last few caves, Ling Yunpo suddenly stopped.
I saw a hammer placed in the cave - I didn’t seem to have seen this thing when I came here last time.
The appearance of this hammer is really plain and unpretentious, and can be described in four words: "dumb, big, gray and crude".
However, there was a row of immortal characters engraved on the hammer, and Ling Yunpo recognized these characters... to be precise, it was Qiu Changtian who recognized them.
It is printed on the atlas in the middle volume of the Five Thunders Orthodox Method!
If I remember correctly, Qiu Changtian also got a similar awl from the treasure house of the Queen Mother of the West's secret realm.
The hammer and the awl are engraved with the same immortal seal characters, and even their arrangement is highly similar (both vertically arranged). Could these two be a pair?
According to Taoist Zhang from the Shenxiao Thunder School, this awl is a magic weapon for learning the eighth type of thunder technique, "Taixiao Thunder".
Since it is a thunder magic weapon, will it be effective against the thunder of the first-grade pill tribulation?
"Ajing, I'm asking you!" Ling Yunpo urged.
"This..." Kunlun Jing said hesitantly, "I think it should be of some use."
"The immortal seal engraved on it means 'lightning and thunder'."
"If combined with the Thunder God Cone, it might have some effect against the thunderbolts."
"I see." Ling Yunpo said proudly, "Then let's choose this one!"
After quickly taking out the Thunder Hammer, Ling Yunpo went back to get the Great Sun True Yang Fire, and then returned to the True Man at the entrance of the Fire Yuan Cave.
At this time, the time of an incense stick was about to pass, and everyone else had already chosen their rewards.
Seeing Ling Yunpo finally return, An Zhisu smiled softly and came over to hold his arm.
Led by Shushan Zhenren, the group left Huoyuan Cave and then returned to their respective peaks.
After returning to Qingluo Peak, Ling Yunpo knew that Senior Sister An had chosen two kinds of Zifu secret medicines this time, which could cumulatively increase the cultivation level of Huafu by a hundred years.
That's great. If senior sister can really reach the second-grade golden elixir, I will have done my best for master!
After sending Senior Sister An to the secret room to refine the Purple Palace Secret Medicine, Ling Yunpo said in a deep voice:
"Ajing, teleport to Penglai!"
At this time, the Baiyujing competition had not yet ended, but Luo Yan was still pretending to be sick, and accepted Miss Shi's care with peace of mind.
Then came the final of the competition. Qiu Changtian won first place and the ranking of the top twelve in Baiyujing was decided. Everyone went to the secret realm to listen to a concert, and after singing, they recited the lyrics for the masters.
After returning to Yuqing Temple, Luo Yan and Shi Liuli were not given the warm welcome they had imagined.
Although everyone is well aware that it is good enough for Penglai to make it into the top 12 of Baiyujing, it is still far behind Kunlun and Shushan. It is not appropriate to give a too grand reception at this time, so as not to make our allies laugh.
The head of Xuandu only gave a brief introduction of the two's achievements to the elders who did not go to the Baiyujing secret realm.
Elder Shi Ding laughed, as if his disciple and daughter had not only made it into the top 12, but also won first place in Baiyujing... Although in a sense, that was not wrong.
After Master Xuandu finished speaking, the elders began to flatter him. Elder Shiding was hypocritically humble, but his expression was very proud.
A few days later, Elder Shi Ding called Luo Yan over and solemnly took out a jade slip from his sleeve, saying:
"Luo Yan, the Qi Refining Technique of our Tiangong Workshop is too low-level, which will be detrimental to your future improvement."
"The temple has taken this into consideration, so we went to Kunlun to obtain the Qi Refining Technique "Qing Yao Zi Shu" for you as a reward for your participation in the Baiyujing Competition."
“Although the rank of this Qing Yao Zi Shu is definitely not as good as the Jiu Tian Qing Wei Ru Jin Zhen Yan, it is still considered to be extremely excellent in the Qi Refining Technique.”
"You take it and study it carefully. If there is anything you don't understand, just come and ask me."
Luo Yan: ...
"Thank you, Master." Although his heart was filled with tears, he still pretended to be surprised and grateful, and said, "By the way, I have some questions about the formation, and I would like to ask you, Master."
You have embezzled the reward for the Baiyujing Competition, so you must help me with the matter of the Tribulation Formation!
