On the twentieth day after Li Shiming settled down, his mountain had returned to normal and calm.
Apart from changing the continent and sect, his life was no different from before.
The life of an immortal cultivator is boring. The cultivation in the Jindan stage, especially for a Jindan cultivator like him who has practiced many kinds of skills, fills almost every day with a full schedule.
This is still good. If you reach the Nascent Soul stage, it will take months or even years to practice once.
As if seeing that he had settled down, Master Jiang Hong came to his mountain.
Li Shiming personally went out of the mountain to welcome Master Jiang Hong. He was very grateful to Master Jiang Hong. It was Master Jiang Hong who brought him into the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, which gave him the current stable environment for cultivation.
He welcomed Master Jiang Hong into the hall of the cave, where only extremely close monks would be invited in.
"Master Li, according to the customs of Dongqi, we have moved to a new cave, and friends need to give us gifts!" Master Jiang Hong said with a smile.
As he spoke, he took out a storage bag and handed it over.
"Master Jiang, you are so polite!" Li Shiming did not expect that Master Jiang Hong would send a gift, he waved his hands repeatedly and said.
Just the favor of being introduced into the sect was so great that he felt it was a bit too much to bear.
Master Jiang Hong was also a master of alchemy. He asked almost nothing of him. This was purely to help him, and he was very clear about this.
"You don't have many friends in the sect, and I can't let you move into the cave quietly like this!" Master Jiang Hong stuffed the storage bag into Li Shiming's hands and said.
He was the one who introduced Li Shiming into the sect, so naturally he was a cultivator of his lineage.
Li Shiming is top-notch in both cultivation talent and alchemy talent, and his future achievements are immeasurable.
The Wanshou Sect is a big family with a huge business. It is not a monolithic group internally but is divided into several factions. Strengthening their own faction is what every cultivator in the faction wants to do.
Master Jiang Hong's current investment of emotion is all for the purpose of winning over Li Shiming.
Of course, it is still too early to say these things. If you have not reached the Nascent Soul stage in the sect, you cannot participate in the struggle for power.
"Thank you, Master Jiang!"
Li Shiming accepted the storage bag. His spiritual sense swept through the storage bag and found a fourth-grade tea tree inside, sealed by several talismans.
He couldn't help but marvel at Master Jiang Hong's generosity, which made him think of the Northern Shu Continent, where it was extremely difficult to taste a cup of fourth-grade spiritual tea, and that was when he was the number one alchemy master in the Northern Shu Continent.
Li Shiming used the fourth-grade spiritual spring water from the cave and the alchemy furnace tea-making method he was good at to serve Master Jiang Hong a cup of fourth-grade spiritual tea. He also took out five fourth-grade spiritual fruits and placed them on the table. This was the best treat he could offer.
Master Jiang Hong looked at the fourth-grade spiritual fruit in front of him and nodded secretly. He knew that Li Shiming had obtained three years of Nascent Soul early stage resources after joining the sect, which was a total of only nine fourth-grade spiritual fruits. He took out five of them at once.
"Yes, this fourth-grade spiritual spring water is of higher quality than the previous ones!" He did not take the fourth-grade spiritual fruit. The fourth-grade spiritual fruit was a precious thing to Li Shiming, but it was nothing to him. Instead, he was very interested in the spiritual tea brewed by Li Shiming himself in the alchemy furnace.
"This is water from the fourth-grade spiritual spring in the cave. The quality is indeed better than the one I bought in Wuqing Mountain before!" Li Shiming also took a sip of the fourth-grade spiritual tea and nodded.
"You said there is a fourth-grade spiritual spring in your cave?" Master Jiang Hong raised his voice a little, confirming with some disbelief.
"Yes, it existed when I used the identity jade disc to open the cave!" Li Shiming heard something unusual and replied.
"You are so lucky. A fourth-grade spiritual spring is not easy to obtain. There are only three fourth-grade spiritual springs in the sect, and they are all shared. No fourth-grade spiritual spring is privately owned. Even if I want a fourth-grade spiritual spring, I have to exchange it with sect contribution points!" Master Jiang Hong shook his head and lamented Li Shiming's luck.
He was only happy that Li Shiming possessed a fourth-grade spiritual spring, and he did not feel jealous at all.
This was related to his own wealth. As one of the top three alchemy masters in the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, he really didn't care about the contribution points that could be exchanged for the fourth-grade spiritual spring.
"I thought every cave was equipped with a fourth-grade spiritual spring!" Li Shiming said with a smile.
He roughly guessed the reason why the fourth-grade spiritual spring appeared. The location where the fourth-grade spiritual spring appeared happened to be the center of the node of the sect's formation. In addition, because this cave had not been used for many years and there was no interference from any spiritual energy, it took who knows how many years to produce this fourth-grade spiritual spring.
"You dare to think so. From now on, I will ask you for the fourth-grade spiritual spring I need!" Master Jiang Hong said with a smile.
"I'll fill a gourd for you and take it away later!" Li Shiming said as he took out a magic gourd.
He threw out the spirit gourd and flew into the depths of the cave. His spiritual power controlled the gourd and filled it with fourth-grade spirit spring water.
Even though there seems to be a lot of fourth-grade spiritual spring water, it is formed over time. In fact, only one drop of spiritual spring water of this grade is produced every day.
That is to say, the accumulation of fourth-grade spiritual spring water is enough to fill a gourd.
Li Shiming didn't care about the missing half of the fourth-grade spiritual spring. He handed the spiritual gourd to Master Jiang Hong.
Master Jiang Hong also didn't care about the fourth-grade spiritual spring in the spiritual gourd. What he cared about was Li Shiming's attitude. He accepted the fourth-grade spiritual spring with a smile.
This kind of give and take has greatly deepened the friendship between each other.
Of course, now the interaction between Li Shiming and Master Jiang Hong is still centered on Master Jiang Hong, unless Li Shiming can be promoted to the Nascent Soul stage one day, then they will have equal status.
"Master Li, let me tell you about the internal situation of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect to facilitate your future communication!" Master Jiang Hong sensed the timing, he put down his teacup and said in a deep voice.
Li Shiming also put down his teacup and prepared to listen to his words seriously.
He also had some understanding of the sect's internal affairs. When he was in Shushan Sect, he belonged to one of the Shushan Sect's branches.
It was just that his identity at that time was special, and no branch in the sect would target him.
But it was different in the Wanshou Sect. As far as he knew, there were several alchemy masters in the Wanshou Sect who were able to refine fourth-grade elixirs, and the three with the highest alchemy level were all Nascent Soul stage alchemy masters.
Since he didn't want to expose his entire alchemy skills, he needed to consider the influence of factions.
Given his own situation, he is naturally in the same faction as Master Jiang Hong.
“The Ten Thousand Beast Sect has more than ten factions, but only two of them are the strongest, one is the Dragon faction, and the other is the Phoenix faction.
The Dragon faction is named after the dragon vein spirit pet, and the Phoenix faction is named after the phoenix vein spirit pet. "Master Jiang Hong continued.
Although Li Shiming didn't know much about spirit pets, he knew how important their bloodline was to them.
Like ordinary spirit pets, when they become a third-grade great demon, they will have two forms, one is the human form, and the other is the original form. The human form is for better cultivation, and the original form is for better combat.
But it is different for spirit pets with dragon blood. The direction of cultivation for spirit pets with dragon blood is to continuously evolve towards the dragon form. The closer they evolve to the dragon form, the stronger their strength will be.
He didn't know much about the bloodline of the Phoenix, but he thought it was similar to the bloodline of the Dragon.
"Then which faction are we from?" Li Shiming asked when he saw Master Jiang Hong picked up the teacup and drank tea slowly.
Master Jiang Hong laughed. He was very happy that Li Shiming used the term "we".
"We are the Phoenix lineage. If you are looking for a spiritual pet in the future, try to find a spiritual pet with phoenix bloodline when you enter the Cave of Ten Thousand Beasts. Our lineage has more spiritual pets with phoenix bloodline, and the growth of spiritual pets can be relatively faster." He replied.
Li Shiming couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard this answer. His Phantom Dragon was of dragon bloodline, especially after obtaining the Dragon Vein Source Crystal. Although the Phantom Dragon was still sleeping, its dragon bloodline was constantly improving and integrating.
"What if I get a spirit pet with dragon bloodline, will it have any impact?" Li Shiming asked after thinking for a while.
“If you have a pet with phoenix blood, then you may be able to enter the core of the Phoenix system and get more attention and resources. But if you have a pet with dragon blood, then it is almost impossible for you to enter the core of the Phoenix system!
If you don't have any idea about power, it won't have much impact, but if you want to have power in the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, you'd better be careful when choosing a spirit pet! "Master Jiang Hong explained for him.
Li Shiming was somewhat helpless, he didn't know the origin of the factions of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, but since there were factions, he had to be careful not to expose the Phantom Dragon.
Although he has no idea about power, he has a great demand for resources.
"You don't have to worry about these things now. You have already reached the realm of great elder. The most important thing right now is to prepare for the advancement to the Nascent Soul stage. You'd better start completing the sect's alchemy tasks when you are free. When the sect's contribution reaches a certain level, in addition to being able to exchange resources, some important classics will be opened to you, which will be helpful for your promotion!" Master Jiang Hong saw that Li Shiming had some ideas and persuaded him with a smile.
Li Shiming didn't pay attention to the sect's mission. In the previous Shushan Sect, after he was able to refine fourth-grade elixirs, he no longer did sect missions.
Because the rewards for the sect's missions were far less than the compensation he earned from refining pills for the cultivators, and the sect's missions did not include the task of refining fourth-grade elixirs.
"By the way, this is the Phoenix family's alchemy inheritance. Although you don't need this alchemy inheritance to refine a fourth-grade elixir, I still hope that this alchemy inheritance can be of help to you!" Master Jiang Hong took out another jade slip and said.
He took out this alchemy inheritance only after he was sure that Li Shiming recognized his identity as a Phoenix.
He is the only master alchemist that the Feng Clan can currently produce. Now with Li Shiming, he only hopes that Li Shiming's alchemy level will be as high as possible.
Li Shiming took the jade slip and his mind entered it.
This is an extremely comprehensive inheritance, which contains not only a complete set of alchemy knowledge, but also the experiences of more than one hundred alchemy masters.
He was extremely shocked in his heart. The experiences and lessons learned from more than a hundred alchemy masters made this alchemy inheritance extremely precious.
As long as one thoroughly studies the experiences of more than a hundred alchemy masters, his alchemy level will naturally far surpass that of alchemy masters without inheritance.
No wonder the alchemy masters in the sect look down on the independent alchemy masters. There is a reason for this. The alchemy masters in the sect have a solid foundation, while the independent alchemy masters rely entirely on their own exploration to make pills. The gap between the two is naturally huge.
Although Li Shiming can achieve perfect alchemy through the 10-nanometer control of the computer room space and the help of his life-saving magic weapon IBMz15, with the knowledge and experience in this inheritance, he can make the alchemy more easily.
Most importantly, with a solid accumulation of knowledge, he can also perform perfect alchemy outside the computer room.
This is the analysis conclusion that the natal magic weapon IBMz15 made for Li Shiming after recording all the contents in the jade slip.
"You must read this alchemy inheritance in the sect. I will give you three months to comprehend it, and the jade slip will be taken back after three months!" Master Jiang Hong reminded Li Shiming. He thought for a moment and explained, "You have just joined the sect. Once you are promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, you can increase the sect's authority. There is no need to do this!"
"I understand!" Li Shiming certainly knew that this was a normal operation. Such important books could not leave the sect.
After seeing off Master Jiang Hong, he first went to the fourth-grade spiritual plant space to plant the fourth-grade spiritual tea tree.
After he removed several sealing talismans from the fourth-grade spiritual tea tree, the fourth-grade spiritual tea tree instantly regained its vitality. The environment of the fourth-grade spiritual plant space was just suitable for the growth of the fourth-grade spiritual tea tree.
He took some fourth-grade spiritual spring water and watered the fourth-grade spiritual tea tree, and felt that the vitality of the fourth-grade spiritual tea tree had stabilized.
The annual tea production of a fourth-grade spiritual tea tree is not large, only twenty leaves, but it is also twice as much as the fourth-grade spiritual tea distributed by the sect. The sect only gives thirty leaves of fourth-grade spiritual tea to early Nascent Soul cultivators in three years.
It can be seen that the gift sent by Master Jiang Hong this time is not small, but when Li Shiming starts to officially make elixirs, Li Shiming himself will soon become rich.
A few days later, Master Song came over and the two sides met in the pavilion.
Uncle Song was still very careful and only brought a fourth-grade spiritual medicine. Of course, he also brought a reward. He brought a portion of "Ten Thousand Years Lightning-Struck Wood Juice".
Li Shiming knew about the 'Ten Thousand Years Lightning Struck Wood Juice'. If his clone Li Yuanba had not been forced to leave Senluo Sect, he might have obtained a portion of the 'Ten Thousand Years Lightning Struck Wood Juice' from Senluo Sect.
It's a pity that Patriarch Jian left too early, causing Li Yuanba to lose his support and the opportunity to obtain resources for advancement to the Nascent Soul stage.
He knew the effect of 'Ten Thousand Years of Lightning Wood Juice'. Using 'Ten Thousand Years of Lightning Wood Juice' when going through a thunder calamity could reduce the damage caused by heavenly thunder.
Although a cultivator can only use one portion of 'Ten Thousand Years Lightning Wood Juice' when he is going through the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation, if he uses more than that, the effect of 'Ten Thousand Years Lightning Wood Juice' will not be exerted.
But Li Shiming is not just himself, he also has his clone Li Yuanba who needs the 'Ten Thousand Years Lightning Wood Juice', and a silver corpse who needs to survive the fourth level of thunder tribulation. No matter how much 'Ten Thousand Years Lightning Wood Juice' he has, it is never too much.
