"Giant tripod?" Wei Shanhai was stunned at first, then he asked in surprise, "How did Young Master Lu know that the big tripod in my house has become bigger again?"
"Is that so?"
Lu Qing was not surprised.
When he just returned to Cangzhou, he discovered that the spiritual energy in Cangzhou was richer than that in Zhongzhou, but it was still quite considerable.
It was more than ten times richer than when they left.
I believe that it won’t be long before it can rival the current Zhongzhou.
"I believe that senior can also sense that the changes in the world and the speed of the recovery of spiritual energy are gradually accelerating in recent times, right?" Lu Qing said.
"Spiritual energy, young master, are you referring to the strange energy that appeared between heaven and earth a while ago?" Wei Shanhai nodded, "Yes, not long after you left, the strange energy has continued to increase, and even some strange changes have occurred in the Hundred Thousand Mountains behind Jiuli Village."
"There's something strange happening in the Shiwan Mountains. Jiuli Village..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Qing suddenly became anxious.
The old doctor also showed concern on his face.
"You don't have to worry about this young man. Everything is fine in Jiuli Village. After I noticed the changes in the mountains, I have been practicing there in seclusion, just in case anything unexpected happens."
Wei Shanhai said with a smile.
Lu Qing finally felt relieved: "Thank you for your hard work, Senior. I am here on behalf of everyone in the village to thank you for your protection."
"Young master, you are too polite. Considering the kindness you and Doctor Chen have shown to our Wei family, this little thing doesn't matter." Wei Shanhai shook his head.
"Oh, by the way, young master, you just mentioned spiritual energy..."
"You are right, senior. The so-called spiritual energy is the strange energy you mentioned. It only appeared after the changes in heaven and earth, and its origin is very great..."
Then Lu Qing briefly talked about the information about spiritual energy and things from the ancient times of cultivating immortals.
Wei Shanhai was just stunned.
"Spiritual energy has revived, and the way to cultivate immortality has reappeared in the world... So, is there really a way to cultivate immortality in this world?"
After a long time, Wei Shanhai murmured.
No wonder he has been trying to refine the new strange energy that has appeared in the world these days, but has never been able to get in.
It turned out that it was the spiritual energy that could be refined by the ancient immortal cultivators.
“Yes, the mysterious little tripod that the senior obtained back then should actually be a magic weapon left over from the previous era of immortal cultivation.
And because it has been damaged, it looks dull and inconspicuous at the beginning.
The reason why it is slowly growing, and has become even bigger recently, is because the spiritual energy has revived, and it has been nourished by the spiritual energy and is gradually recovering. "
Lu Qing explained.
"I see."
Wei Shanhai suddenly realized, yes, only the legendary magic weapon of the immortals could have such magical powers.
"But senior, the restoration of the big cauldron may not necessarily be a good thing for your Wei family." Lu Qing continued.
"Oh, what do you mean?" Wei Shanhai was puzzled.
“Because the magic weapon has spirits, the big cauldron is extremely extraordinary and can be changed in size as desired. It should be a very rare spiritual treasure in the era of cultivating immortals.
There is a spirit inside it that can control the power of the magic weapon.
Now the spirit of the weapon has not fully recovered. When its power is fully restored in the future, I am afraid it will be unwilling to be bound.
By then, with the danger of the spiritual weapon, not only the Wei Mansion, but even the entire county would be in trouble."
Lu Qing's words were not alarmist.
Each of the ancient spiritual weapons is extremely proud and will not easily yield to others.
Even in the last era of cultivating immortals, those who could be recognized by spiritual weapons were extremely rare.
He was sure that if the spirit in the Lihuo Ding was revived, it would definitely find a way to leave.
By then, even if a little bit of power was randomly released, it would be a disaster for the people of Wei Mansion and even Cang County.
This is also the problem that Lu Qing realized when he encountered the plague gourd.
The Lihuo Ding may not be an evil spiritual weapon, but given its mentality after countless years of existence, it may not necessarily take ordinary people seriously.
"It's so serious, what should we do?"
Wei Shanhai was shocked and asked quickly.
He didn't think that Lu Qing would deceive him because there was no need for that.
“There are two ways to avoid this situation.
One of them is to move the cauldron out of the underground cave."
"I'm afraid that's impossible." Wei Shanhai smiled bitterly, "Young Master, you don't know that the spiritual energy has been increasing over time, and the size of the cauldron has become several times larger than before.
Now it is much larger than the passage in the underground cave.
Not to mention its current weight, it is already so heavy that even an old man like me finds it difficult to move.
Even if we work together to lift it, we can’t bring it out.”
"Then there is only the second way." Lu Qing nodded, not surprised, "Refine it. As long as the cauldron is refined and recognized as the master, it will naturally not riot again."
"Refine? But as an ancient magic weapon, it should be extremely difficult to refine, right?"
Over the years since he got the cauldron, Wei Shanhai has tried countless methods to explore the mystery inside.
But the final result was that almost nothing was gained.
And ever since the big cauldron absorbed the fire elemental energy from the underground cave, it has undergone changes.
His spiritual power could no longer enter the cauldron.
Recently, spiritual energy has revived and the cauldron has expanded again. His spiritual power doesn't even dare to approach the cauldron.
Otherwise, if you are not careful, your soul power will be burned and your mind will be severely damaged.
“Yes, the big cauldron has now recovered some of its power. It is not something that ordinary people can do to refine it.
The power of the soul must be extremely strong, and one must know how to refine it, and slowly tame it with patience."
Lu Qing said slowly.
When Wei Shanhai heard this, his scalp went numb.
Not long ago, he received a letter from the palace saying that Da Ding had changed and had come back once.
The result was that his spiritual power was burned to ashes as soon as it touched the cauldron.
This caused damage to his heart, and it took several days of recuperation and breathing exercises before he recovered.
Now I heard Lu Qing say that he wanted to use the power of his soul and the water-grinding method to refine the big cauldron.
He immediately knew that it was impossible to do it with his abilities.
Judging from his earlier experiences, if he were to refine it by force, his spiritual power would be burned out in less than a quarter of an hour, and he would die on the spot.
Therefore, Wei Shanhai immediately shook his head and said, "Young Master, I am afraid that I am powerless to help you refine the cauldron."
"This is what the junior said, what I want to discuss with the senior."
After Lu Qing explained the pros and cons, he got straight to the point and said, "Senior Wei, I want to make a deal with you."
"Is it about the big tripod?"
Wei Shanhai suddenly felt enlightened.
“Yes, to be honest with you, I want to try and see if I can refine the cauldron.
Of course, as a transaction, the younger generation will also pay a certain amount of compensation.
If you are willing..."
Lu Qing reached into his arms and took out a jade bottle and a jade slip in his hand.
"Senior Wei, these two things are what I obtained during my trip to Zhongzhou.
Inside the jade bottle is an energy of the origin of the world. This was the result of the nine sounds of Tao a while ago, when the rules of heaven and earth were initially determined.
A great opportunity descended from the vision of heaven and earth above the holy mountain.
This original energy has the ability to seize the fortune of heaven and earth and recreate the universe.
Even if a person has ordinary talents, by integrating it into his body, he can transform into an unparalleled genius or a spiritual practitioner.
As for this jade slip, it contains a complete set of methods for cultivating immortals.
If one practices to the highest level, one can achieve the golden elixir and directly enter the realm of primordial spirit.
I would like to exchange these two things with you for the magic weapon, the Great Cauldron."
"The origin of the world, the method of cultivating immortals..."
After listening to Lu Qing's introduction of the object in his hand, Wei Shanhai was shocked.
Any one of these two things is an unimaginable treasure to him.
Not to mention the energy of the world's origin, just by hearing its name, you can tell that it is an extremely rare treasure of opportunity.
And the method of cultivating immortals made Wei Shanhai even more excited.
After all, according to Lu Qing's previous statement, with the changes in the world and the revival of spiritual energy, the immortal way will reappear in the near future.
If he could obtain the method of cultivating immortals and embark on the path of cultivating immortals, he might not become an immortal in the future, but at least his life span would be greatly increased, allowing him to live freely and eternally for hundreds of years again.
When he thought of this, Wei Shanhai's breathing became a little rapid.
After staring blankly at the thing in Lu Qing's hand for a long time, Wei Shanhai finally calmed down a little.
A wry smile appeared on his face: "Mr. Lu, you really gave me a temptation that I can't refuse."
"Then are you willing to trade, senior?" Lu Qing asked with a smile.
"Yes, of course." Wei Shanhai nodded without hesitation.
“I have obtained the Ding for nearly a hundred years, but I still cannot comprehend the mystery behind it.
Over the years, in addition to the unique meaning on the tripod, it has been of some help to our practice.
There aren't many other benefits.
In this case, it would be great if I could use it to exchange for two great opportunities."
The most important thing is that, without Lu Qing’s reminder, in fact, since the last time the power of the soul was burned by the cauldron.
Wei Shanhai vaguely felt the danger hidden in the big cauldron.
The big cauldron absorbed too much energy from the heaven and earth. Once it exploded, he couldn't imagine what a terrifying scene it would be.
But what is certain is that their Wei family’s ancestral home will inevitably be destroyed.
Even Cang County may suffer heavy losses as a result.
So if Lu Qing can solve it, it will also be a good thing for their Wei family.
"Then Senior, these two things belong to you."
Lu Qing smiled and handed the thing in his hand to Wei Shanhai.
Wei Shanhai took the item and put it away without checking it. Then he said:
“Then come with me, Young Master Lu. To be honest, the power emanating from that large cauldron is so powerful that even I am frightened.
If this hidden danger is resolved soon, I can breathe a sigh of relief."
"Senior, don't you want to check your things first?" Lu Qing raised his eyebrows.
"Haha, young master, you are joking. The lives of this old man and the entire Wei family were saved by Doctor Chen and you that day.
In fact, considering your kindness to our Wei family, it would be only right for you to take the cauldron directly.
I accepted these two things because I was greedy and shameless. "
Wei Shanhai said somewhat embarrassedly.
"That's not the case. Ancient treasures are hard to come by. If Lu Qing took them for nothing, I would feel uneasy." Lu Qing shook his head.
Only he knew how precious the Lihuo Ding was.
Not only is it a spiritual weapon with a very high upper limit, it also contains most of the inheritance of the ancient Lihuo Sect.
To be frank, half of his achievements today can be attributed to the inheritance he obtained from the Lihuo Cauldron that day.
So morally and logically, Lu Qing felt deep down that he should give the Wei family some compensation.
Half a minute later, Lu Qing and the old doctor followed Wei Shanhai to the cave under the Wei Mansion.
Returning to the underground cave once again, Lu Qing and the old doctor discovered that there had been significant changes here.
Not only was the temperature several times hotter than the last time they came, but it was also several times hotter.
The fire element energy inside became even more incomparably dense.
Especially the Lihuo Ding, its size increased seven or eight times, almost touching the top of the cave.
"Mr. Lu, Doctor Chen, you have seen that the cauldron has changed so much. If you don't come back, I'm afraid we will be in big trouble."
Wei Shanhai felt the power of the cauldron and felt a little frightened.
This cauldron has grown a lot bigger than when he left last time, and its aura is even more terrifying.
"No problem, let me try and see if I can refine it."
Lu Qing was also somewhat surprised by the changes in the Lihuo Ding.
It seems that in this fire cave, the recovery of the Lihuo Ding is much faster than he imagined.
He immediately sat down cross-legged, concentrating and calming his mind. The next moment, the power of his soul surged out from the acupoint between his eyebrows and went towards the Lihuo Cauldron.
When Wei Shanhai felt the spiritual power of Lu Qing, he was shocked.
The fluctuations of Lu Qing's spiritual power were too overbearing.
In comparison, the spiritual power he cultivated was like a small water tank by the lake, which was completely incomparable.
“No wonder Young Master Lu is so confident that he can refine the cauldron. It turns out that his spiritual power is so strong. Has he really just entered the Xiantian realm?”
Wei Shanhai was filled with endless amazement.
At the same time, he also gained more confidence in Lu Qing's ability to refine the big cauldron.
If even such a powerful Lu Qing could not refine the big cauldron, he really couldn't imagine who else could subdue him.
However, what Wei Shanhai did not expect was that Lu Qing, whom he had placed great hopes on, encountered some troubles at this time.
When the power of the soul rushed out of the acupoint between his eyebrows, Lu Qing felt a burning sensation in his mind.
The rich fire power in the cave seemed to be tempering his spiritual power.
Especially the fiery power coming from the Lihuo Cauldron, which seemed to burn all of his spiritual power.
Fortunately, Lu Qing survived the thunder tribulation, and his soul power underwent a qualitative change from Yin to Yang, reaching the state of [Yang Fu].
This little heat cannot cause any substantial damage to his spiritual power.
As his mind turned, he began to practice the unique method of refining magic weapons passed down by the Lihuo Sect.
The Lihuo Ding, which had originally resisted him, suddenly eliminated all resistance, allowing his spiritual power to easily penetrate into it.
However, before Lu Qing could be happy.
As soon as the power of the soul entered the Lihuo Cauldron, a majestic shout came from the mind.
"Who dares to offend me?"
