"Shizhen, Zhongqiang will come to your place first. You make some elixirs for him to practice. All the expenses will be on me!" Master Hu turned around and instructed Li Shiming.
He thought of Li Shiming's alchemy level and Zhong Qiang's current situation. Even if he tried to help, there would be no better solution.
What Zhong Qiang needs is the best elixir to assist his cultivation. With Li Shiming's alchemy level, Zhong Qiang can make up for the time he wasted before.
"Master, it's just a matter of how much the eldest brother can consume!" Li Shiming waved his hand and said with a smile.
He could understand his master's thoughts. He really didn't lack these alchemy materials. What Zhong Qiang consumed now were only some second-grade elixirs. Even if he was promoted to the Golden Core Stage, they would only be third-grade elixirs.
He just did not expose his 'Mountain and River Fan'. The elixirs produced by the 'Mountain and River Fan' could supply not only one Zhong Qiang, but even ten times more.
"Zhong Qiang, do you have any objection to my arrangement?" Monk Hu asked Zhong Qiang.
He was worried that Zhong Qiang was too proud to let his junior fellow apprentice take care of him.
"Master, my life was saved by my junior brother. I already owe you a huge favor!" Zhong Qiang bowed and said to the great monk Hu.
When he lowered his head, a determination flashed in his eyes, as if he had made some decision.
He also understood that Master Hu's real body was not here, and although his spiritual incarnation could handle some matters, it was very inconvenient to take care of him.
Li Shiming brought Zhong Qiang to his own cave and arranged a room for Zhong Qiang in the cave.
Since Zhong Qiang's realm is too low, the spiritual energy in the cave does not need to be increased. Instead, the concentration of the spiritual energy needs to be reduced by using formations.
"Big Brother, do you need to go back to your cave?" Li Shiming asked after decorating Zhong Qiang's room.
"I won't go back for the time being. With my level, there will be a lot of trouble even if I go back there!" Zhong Qiang said with a wry smile and shook his head.
His cave was similar to Li Shiming's. He had no way of using formations to reduce his spiritual energy and arrange the environment into a practice environment suitable for cultivators in the early stages of foundation building.
He was a casual cultivator before, and was almost penniless. The remaining spiritual objects in his cave were mostly of the fourth grade, which were beyond his control at his level.
If he really wants to live in his own cave, he needs to ask a cultivator for help. It would be better if his second junior brother Yue Shan is in the sect, but Yue Shan is not in the sect now. It would be better for him to follow the instructions of the great cultivator Hu and live here with Li Shiming.
"This is a batch of second-grade elixirs that I refined for you to practice. If you have any special needs, you can call me at any time using your identity jade disc!" Li Shiming took out a few jade bottles and handed them over.
"Junior brother, this will delay your practice too much!" Zhong Qiang said as he took the jade bottle.
A cultivator's practice cannot be disturbed. Since Li Shiming said that he could be contacted at any time, it meant that Li Shiming had no intention of entering the state of practice.
Zhong Qiang felt a little sorry for Li Shiming, as Li Shiming had done enough for him.
"There's nothing to bother you about. I've taken on some alchemy tasks recently!" Li Shiming explained with a smile.
Of course, he did not really not practice. His practice was a little different from that of other cultivators. He only needed to keep one Nascent Soul on standby at all times, and the other four Nascent Souls could enter the state of practice.
The 'Five Elements Qi Gathering Formation' composed of five Yuanyings will automatically transfer the spiritual power cultivated by the four Yuanyings evenly into the bodies of the five Yuanyings.
"Observe for a while longer!" Zhong Qiang thought to himself. Although he had made up his mind, he still felt reluctant.
After Li Shiming left the room, Zhong Qiang opened several jade bottles in his hand and found that the second-grade elixirs inside were all second-grade high-level elixirs, and their quality had reached the highest level.
On the one hand, this shows that Li Shiming's alchemy skills are indeed very high, and on the other hand, it shows that Li Shiming put his heart into it.
With these second-grade high-level elixirs in his hands, he was confident that he could be promoted to the Golden Core Stage in the shortest possible time.
He is different from normal cultivators. He will not encounter any bottleneck before being promoted to the Jindan stage. Even if he is promoted to the Jindan stage, the bottleneck he encounters is much smaller than that of normal cultivators.
This has to do with his cultivation experience and also with the fact that his Nascent Soul has merged into this body.
Li Yuanba slowly exhaled a breath of foul air, and another retreat ended. The sword intent in his body became even more fierce.
This is the outward manifestation of Xing Yijian's blessing on sword intent. Xing Yijian was promoted from the third rank to the fourth rank. He did not deliberately suppress the fourth rank Xing Yijian, which led to this situation.
He smiled slightly, and his Nascent Soul spit out a fourth-grade Xingyi Sword. The Xingyi Sword flew out of his body and transformed from energy into a physical form.
"This is a top-grade fourth-grade flying sword. The improvement this time is just barely acceptable!" He felt the quality of Xing Yijian and muttered to himself.
He is not being Versailles. He is using the fourth-grade top-level refining material 'Abyss True Sand' to improve the quality of Xing Yijian. Under normal circumstances, the quality of Xing Yijian should be of the fourth-grade top level.
Considering the weapon-refining skills he shared from his original body, Li Shiming, this achievement was really nothing.
If it weren't for leaving space for engraving the 5-nanometer runes in the future, he could have improved the quality of Xing Yijian a little bit more.
"This is good, I can use my sword without any worries!" he thought to himself.
If he really managed to refine a fourth-grade magical weapon, then he would need to consider the trouble that would arise if Xing Yijian's quality was exposed.
Although in the world of immortal cultivation, there are many kinds of magic weapons for Nascent Soul cultivators, but usually the quality of the magic weapons is based on the Nascent Soul realm.
The cultivators in the early stage of Nascent Soul use the fourth-grade lower-level magic weapons, the cultivators in the middle stage of Nascent Soul use the fourth-grade intermediate-level magic weapons, and the great cultivators use the fourth-grade top-level magic weapons.
Of course, there are special beings too. For example, the core monks of large sects possess magic weapons that are beyond their own realm.
Li Yuanba is now using a top-level fourth-grade flying sword, which has far exceeded his own realm. That is to say, his sword cultivation is quite special and he specializes in his own natal flying sword. Although he is still a little too conspicuous, it will not be a big problem.
But if he really wants to use the fourth-grade weapon of calamity, he must kill any cultivator who sees the fourth-grade weapon of calamity when using it, otherwise he will be in endless trouble.
Never underestimate the cultivators' need for magic weapons. A cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage holding a fourth-grade magic weapon is like a child walking in a busy city with gold.
Li Yuanba summoned the magic weapon "Wanjian Peak" placed aside and found that the environment here could not only enhance his own sword intent, but also enhance the sword intent within "Wanjian Peak".
Especially for those who are already weak in sword intent, the special sword intent environment in the 'Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion' allows the weak sword intent to be rapidly improved.
Feeling the ten thousand flying swords and sword intent inside the 'Wanjian Peak', a smile appeared on his face.
Among the ten thousand sword intents, in addition to the 'Heavenly Thunder Sword Intent', the Nascent Soul level sword intent also has his 'Supreme Yang Sword Intent', and the power of the other sword intents has also been greatly enhanced.
After putting away the 'Wanjian Peak', his retreat this time ended. He wanted to see the fastest way to improve sword intent in the 'Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion'.
According to the knowledge I got from my great-grandmaster Uncle Wu, the fastest way to improve swordsmanship is to fight.
The way of survival for a sword cultivator is to fight to support fighting. If a sword cultivator stops fighting and concentrates on practicing in seclusion, then his future achievements will be extremely limited.
Which top swordsman who became famous did not come through a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Li Yuanba flew out of his cave and came to the affairs cave.
Although you can see the tasks you can accept on the identity jade disc, if you want to know more, you still have to come to the affairs cave.
"Junior brother, are you here to accept a mission?" Just as he walked into the hall of the affairs cave, he was stopped and asked by a sword cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage.
"Yes, I wonder what's the matter, senior brother?" Li Yuanba asked in some confusion.
"Our team is still short of one person. Just seeing you here, I wanted to invite you to join!" the swordsman replied with a smile.
"I do want to take the mission, but I don't know what mission you are taking?" Li Yuanba asked with great interest.
He just wanted to integrate himself into the group of these sword cultivators, so he was naturally very happy when a sword cultivator took the initiative to invite him.
"Our mission is to destroy the Huadie Sect in Zhongzhou, which is just a small sect. However, it has expanded rapidly recently and its strength has increased a lot!" The swordsman answered without hiding anything.
Li Shiming had never heard of the Huadie Sect, but he knew the sect's style of doing things.
Although Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion's actions are extremely domineering, they will never destroy other sects without reason.
If Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion acts without scruples and destroys some sects at will, I am afraid that the entire world of immortal cultivation will not be able to tolerate Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion.
It is precisely because every time a sect is exterminated that there is a reason, which leaves other sects speechless. They can only say that Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion is too overbearing, and remind themselves to be more careful and not to be found an opportunity by Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion.
"Brother, I'm willing to join!" Li Shiming nodded in agreement.
"Haha, it's finally full. By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Yun Xiao, and I'm the captain of the team. After we share the task, I will take you to meet the other members!" Yun Xiao said with a smile.
He took out his identity jade disc and shared the task with Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba saw an additional task on his identity jade disc, which was to wipe out the Huadie Sect. He also saw the names of the other five cultivators who shared the task, with Yun Xiao being the first.
Yun Xiao took Li Yuanba out of the affairs cave, and soon they reunited with the other four Nascent Soul sword cultivators.
"This is Yan Gan, Du Lei, Guo Ping and Zhuo Xuan!" Yun Xiao introduced Li Yuanba, and then realized that he did not ask Li Yuanba's name. Fortunately, it was displayed during the shared task, and he was not embarrassed. He took out the identity jade disc in front of the other cultivators to check it, and then said: "This is Li Yuanba, our new teammate!"
"Yun Xiao, why did you find a newly promoted Nascent Soul? Is he capable?" It was Du Lei who raised the question.
Du Lei couldn’t be blamed. Li Yuanba’s aura was too obvious. He was just a Nascent Soul swordsman who had just been promoted not long ago.
It would be a lot of trouble to work with newcomers like this.
"Du Lei, feel Li Yuanba's sword intent carefully before you speak!" Yun Xiao glared at Du Lei and said, he turned to Li Yuanba and said, "Du Lei has a straightforward personality, don't take it seriously!"
Du Lei carefully sensed Li Yuanba's sword intent, and a look of understanding flashed in his eyes.
"Li Yuanba, you are so lucky. You have just upgraded your natal flying sword to the top fourth grade. This is equivalent to saving hundreds of years of material accumulation!" He said in an envious tone.
Yun Xiao couldn't help but cover his head. Li Yuanba did have the aura of a fourth-grade top-level natal flying sword, but you couldn't say it to his face.
Li Yuanba had just been promoted to a Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator, and the quality of his natal flying sword had only been improved not long ago. Even though he had hidden the aura of his natal flying sword, experienced Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators could still sense some of his aura at close range.
"Don't pay attention to Du Lei, you always speak without thinking!" Yun Xiao said to Li Yuanba.
"It's because my cultivation is not good enough, you can't blame Senior Brother Du Lei!" Li Yuanba waved his hand and said.
Seeing that Li Yuanba was quite easy to get along with, several Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators couldn't help but laugh.
Normally a team has fixed members, but one of the members of their team needs to go into seclusion for a long time, so they will look for a monk to join.
Of course, the monks we have just found need to undergo a period of assessment and be recognized by all members before they can truly join the team. Otherwise, they can only cooperate this time.
"Li Yuanba, after joining the team, just call each other by your names. This will be more convenient. We can talk while walking!" Yun Xiao said with a smile.
He took out a fourth-grade flying boat, and the Nascent Soul sword cultivators entered the flying boat, and Li Yuanba followed suit.
"Have you all read the sect's intelligence about the Huadie Sect?" Yun Xiao said in a deep voice.
The other Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators all nodded. Li Yuanba took out his identity jade disc, retrieved the relevant information and began to check it.
Yun Xiao also knew that Li Yuanba had just shared the mission, was not familiar with the mission, and did not mention Li Yuanba.
“There are currently eight Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators exposed in Huadie Sect. If there were no Nascent Soul Middle Stage cultivators found in Huadie Sect, this level of strength would already be enough to enter a medium-sized sect.
The five of us are used to cooperating. Guo Ping, your task is to help Li Yuanba get familiar with our formation. In this mission, Li Yuanba will be a mobile combat force. Observe as much as possible and integrate into the team's combat method as soon as possible! "Yun Xiao continued.
Guo Ping smiled and nodded to Li Yuanba, and Li Yuanba smiled back.
Li Yuanba discovered that these Nascent Soul Sword Cultivators were very easy to get along with, and almost all of them were insightful people.
"Li Yuanba, we will observe your fighting style, and after the mission is completed, we will consider incorporating your fighting style into the team formation!" Yun Xiao said specifically to Li Yuanba.
Next, Yun Xiao explained some precautions about the Huadie Sect one by one. Although it was not a big problem for a team of Nascent Soul sword cultivators from the Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion to kill eight Nascent Soul early stage cultivators, the prior preparations were not sloppy at all.
This is probably the reason why Jianyi Chongxiao Pavilion has become so famous in the world of immortal cultivation for using flying swords. With such a cautious attitude, the battle will rarely get out of control.
