"Ah Qing, where should we go to earn spirit stones?"
Above the sky, Lu Qing was flying slowly, while Xiao Li was lying on his shoulder and asked.
At this time, they had left the cave and came outside.
"Let me think about it."
In fact, Lu Qing was also a little troubled.
He actually has quite a few treasures in his hands now. In the battle at Tianshu Mountain that year, he obtained several spiritual weapons alone, and even more powerful treasures.
Each item is very valuable, and if you can sell it, you can easily exchange it for a large number of spirit stones.
But these powerful magic weapons all have owners, and most of their original owners are powerful people from various forces.
If he dared to sell it, his identity as Chen Qing would be exposed immediately.
By then, I'm afraid there will be countless powerful people who will come to suppress him.
Although Lu Qing's strength has greatly increased now, ordinary people at the initial stage of Yuanshen are no longer his match.
But he was not so complacent as to think that he could really defeat those old monsters in the Yuanshen realm who had survived several disasters.
But if he didn't sell the treasure, he would have neither connections nor ways in the Tianyuan World. It would not be easy for him to get a large amount of spirit stones in a short period of time like he did in the Xiaocang World.
After thinking for a while, Lu Qing's heart moved and he suddenly thought of someone.
If it's that person, maybe I can help him.
Thinking of this, Lu Qing smiled and said, "Got it, let's go."
"Ah Qing, now you have come up with a solution, where should we go now?"
"Go find an old friend."
…
A month later, Lu Qing brought Xiao Li across several continents and arrived at a continent called Qingniu Continent.
The Tianyuan world is extremely vast, and the human territory alone is extremely vast.
Even for Lu Qing, it would take a lot of time to cross a state without revealing too much of his strength.
After entering Qingniu Island, Lu Qing saw that the architectural style here had changed again.
There are Taoist temples everywhere, and even the number of Taoists has greatly increased.
Qingniuzhou is also a very special continent in the Tianyuan World.
The culture of Taoism is prevalent in this continent, and there are countless Taoist temples. Many of the powerful Taoist sects of the Tianyuan World are located here.
Among them is the Daoxu Temple that Lu Qing had encountered in the Tianshu Divine Mountain Sect. It is a powerful sect that can be ranked among the top in the entire Tianyuan World.
However, Lu Qing came to Qingniu Island this time not for Daoxu Temple, but to find an old friend.
"Ah Qing, you said you were going to look for Taoist Wubao. Will he reveal our whereabouts right away?"
Lu Qing was walking in a big city. Xiao Li hid in his clothes, popped his little head out to look around, but secretly asked Lu Qing with some worry.
You know, Ah Qing and it are now both under hunting orders from the Holy Alliance.
Add to that the bounties offered by those sectarian forces, and I don’t know how many people want to search for their whereabouts.
"Don't worry, the Taoist priest is not that kind of person, and we are not going to see him directly. Let's see the situation first." Lu Qing comforted.
After saying that, he took out a jade communication talisman and entered a message into it.
This jade communication talisman was exchanged between Lu Qing and Taoist Wubao for communication purposes in the secret trial realm of Tianshu Sacred Mountain in order to avoid them getting separated.
However, it was not used at that time, but I didn’t expect it to come in handy today.
After sending the message, Lu Qing took Xiao Li to find a restaurant, asked for a seat by the window on the second floor, ordered a table of dishes, and enjoyed them while waiting for the arrival of Taoist Wubao.
After he and Xiao Li had eaten and drunk their fill, after a while, his expression changed and he looked down.
Then I saw a familiar figure appear on the street below. It could be the Taoist priest Wubao or someone else.
However, there was a hint of nervousness on Taoist Wubao's face at this moment, which was imperceptible to others.
Obviously, he didn't expect that Lu Qing would suddenly come to find him.
Seeing the appearance of Wubao Taoist, Lu Qing did not rush out to meet him, but observed silently and activated his special powers.
Although he told Xiao Li that he believed in the character of Taoist Wubao, how could he be so naive?
Although he got along quite harmoniously with Taoist Wubao when they were traveling together, this does not mean that the other party would not sell himself out for the generous reward.
People’s minds are unpredictable, so it’s better to be cautious.
After observing for a while, Lu Qing found nothing unusual. When a message appeared in his field of vision, he smiled after reading it.
However, Lu Qing still did not show up. Instead, he quietly communicated with him through telepathy, then paid the bill and left with Xiao Li.
When Taoist Wubao heard Lu Qing's voice transmission, his body trembled slightly. He looked around calmly, and then slowly left the city.
Finally, after making sure that no one was following him, he turned into a stream of light and flew towards the mountains outside the city.
After entering the forest, he looked around and soon found the strange mountain that Lu Qing told him about. After hesitating for a while, he finally flew over.
As soon as he landed on the top of the mountain, Taoist Wubao felt an invisible wave passing by and he had completely lost contact with the outside world.
It was obvious that the entire mountain had been set up with formations in advance.
Feeling this scene, Taoist Wubao actually breathed a sigh of relief.
He was very familiar with the fluctuations of this formation. More than ten years ago, in the strange secret realm of Tianshu Mountain, he had been protected by this formation many times.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, is that you?" Taoist Wubao looked around.
"I haven't seen you for many years. You are still as elegant as ever, and your cultivation is even better than before."
Lu Qing walked out of the woods, and his appearance had changed back to "Chen Qing".
Xiao Li stood on his shoulder and returned to the way he was when he first got along with Taoist Wubao.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, Xiao Li, it really is you."
When he saw Lu Qing and Xiao Li standing on his shoulders, Taoist Wubao finally relaxed and smiled from the bottom of his heart.
To be honest, he was really shocked when he received the summons not long ago.
The first thought that came to his mind was that someone was trying to trick him and wanted to get information about Chen Qing from him.
However, after he carefully read the content of the message, he felt that it was not the case.
Because some of the things mentioned in the message had never been told to anyone else, logically speaking, only he and Chen Qing should know about it.
Moreover, only Chen Qing knew about his jade talisman for communication, and he never told anyone else.
Therefore, the person who sent the message to him was most likely Chen Qing.
In order to verify his idea, he immediately cast a hexagram and calculated the origin of the person who sent him the message.
However, he found that the hexagram was in chaos and there was no way to interpret it, let alone figure out the man's origin.
Just like he calculated Chen Qing back then.
It was precisely because of this that Taoist Wubao made up his mind to take the risk and rush over.
Now that he saw that his guess was correct, he finally let go of the worry that had been hanging in his heart.
"Master, how are you?" Lu Qing asked with a smile.
"Not bad. After coming out of the secret realm that year, I knew I was outnumbered, so I left immediately. However, I missed the moment when Fellow Daoist Chen displayed his supernatural powers and angrily killed the Yuan Shen. It was really a pity." Taoist Wubao said.
When he followed Qin Zheng and the others out of the secret realm, he said goodbye immediately.
As for the sake of Qiankun Sect, other forces did not make things difficult for him, a casual cultivator in the Jindan realm.
Therefore, Taoist Wubao did not see the scene where Lu Qing killed several souls one after another and shocked everyone with his power.
When he heard the news in Tianshu City later, he was shocked and alert. He sneaked away and left Tianshu City as soon as possible.
After all, when he and Lu Qing entered the secret realm together, it was witnessed by many powerful souls.
If those powerful people react and want to capture him for interrogation, it will be very bad.
This is indeed the case. Soon after the news reached Tianshu City, powerful men began searching for the whereabouts of the Five Treasures Taoist.
Unfortunately, by then, Taoist Wubao had already changed his appearance and disappeared without a trace.
In addition, he is extremely good at calculation and knows how to shield his own cause and effect.
This meant that even if others wanted to figure out where he was, they would have no idea.
"No wonder I didn't see the Taoist priest back then." Lu Qing suddenly realized.
During the battle at Tianshu Mountain, he saw Qin Zheng, Ye Qingzhu and others, but did not see the Wubao Taoist.
At that time, he was still a little worried, thinking that something unexpected had happened during the year he was in seclusion in the mysterious space.
Later, when I saw that the soul mark in the communication jade talisman was still there, I realized that the Five Treasures Taoist Priest had not died.
Now it seems that this somewhat mysterious fat Taoist priest is still as alert as ever, and he sneaked away just after leaving the secret realm.
"The battle that Fellow Daoist Chen fought back then shocked the world. Even now, those sectarian forces and aristocratic families are probably still looking for your whereabouts." Taoist Wubao sighed.
"What about you, Taoist Priest? I have been identified as a demon by the Holy Alliance and a hunt order has been issued. Do you still want to make friends with a demon like me?" Lu Qing said with a smile.
"What are you talking about, Fellow Daoist Chen? I am not the kind of person who would easily believe in rumors." Taoist Wubao waved his hand and said, "I can still tell whether Fellow Daoist is an evil demon or not.
To put it bluntly, the battle on that day was just because those big forces were jealous of the opportunity you got in the secret realm and wanted to seize it by force.
This isn't the first time they've done something like this.
It's just that they, who have always been high and mighty, never expected that they would run into such a big iron plate like you.
Whatever evil or not, it is nothing more than an excuse for those forces to justify themselves."
When Taoist Wubao said this, there was sarcasm in his eyes.
Obviously, there are many stories behind this person.
"I didn't expect that I would be so trusted by the Taoist priest. I am really honored." Lu Qing said with a smile.
"Haha, what those big forces like to do most is to label others as evil demons and put themselves on the high ground of justice. This kind of thing is not new. I'm afraid many other forces also understand what is going on, but they just haven't exposed it." Taoist Wubao laughed.
"It seems that the Taoist priest has also had some experience."
"It's all in the past, let's not talk about it." Taoist Wubao shook his head and said, "By the way, Taoist friend Chen, why did you come here to look for Xiaodao this time?"
Taoist Wubao knew very well that his friendship with Lu Qing was far from the point of being open-hearted and sharing life and death.
The other party risked being exposed and came to find me, so there must be something important.
"To be honest, I do have something I want to ask the Taoist priest."
Lu Qing did not try to be polite but spoke directly.
"Oh, you can tell me what's going on." Taoist Wubao's expression became serious. "If there's anything I can help with, I'll do my best to help you."
Back then in the secret realm, Lu Qing saved him more than once.
Later, he even selflessly shared the secret of the exotic beast's bloodline with him, which greatly improved his strength.
After coming out, he successfully mastered a powerful secret technique of his master.
Taoist Wubao has always kept these favors in his heart.
"It's not a big deal actually. I'm short of spirit stones recently. Does the director have any way to earn some spirit stones quickly?" Lu Qing went straight to the point.
"Do you need spirit stones? I wonder how many you need. I actually have a small amount of savings..."
Taoist Wubao subconsciously thought that Lu Qing was short of money and was about to say that he could lend some money to him, but Lu Qing's next words made him shut up.
"One hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones, this is the minimum number. If you go up, the more the better. There is no upper limit."
"... Ten, a hundred thousand or more middle-grade spirit stones?"
Taoist Wubao was silent for a while, then stammered.
He was really shocked by Lu Qing's numbers.
You have to know that what Lu Qing was talking about were mid-grade spirit stones. If it were changed to low-grade spirit stones, the amount would be an astronomical figure.
"If not for this, I would not have come to ask the Taoist priest for help."
"Fellow Daoist Chen, you think too highly of me. How could I be so worthy as to help you get more than 100,000 mid-grade spirit stones?" Taoist Wubao said with a wry smile.
"Master, you misunderstood my meaning. I am not asking you to help me get this amount of spiritual stones, but I hope you can point out a few ways to quickly earn spiritual stones. After all, I am not familiar with the Tianyuan World."
Taoist Wubao fell silent again.
He was not surprised that Lu Qing said that he was not familiar with the Tianyuan World.
He had long guessed that this person was not a native of the Tianyuan World, but came from the outside world.
Otherwise, such a peerless evildoer should not have been unknown before.
He thought seriously for a while before speaking slowly.
"In fact, if you want to earn spirit stones quickly, there are only a few ways."
"In the cultivation world, there are several types of cultivators, who are generally the wealthiest: alchemists, weapon refiners, and talisman refiners."
"After all, cultivation cannot be separated from elixirs, magic weapons and talismans."
"If a monk can achieve success in any of these three skills, he will become very popular and sought after by monks from all walks of life."
"But fellow Daoist, your identity is sensitive. These three paths require frequent contact with other cultivators, so I'm afraid it won't be easy to follow."
Lu Qing nodded slightly.
He had also thought about what Taoist Wubao said.
He was not afraid of contact with people, but refining elixirs and magic weapons took a lot of time and was not suitable for him now.
"Since these three paths are not suitable, I know of another unconventional method that may help you accumulate spirit stones quickly?"
"Oh, I wonder what it is?" Lu Qing raised his eyebrows and immediately became interested.
"Assassination bounty!"
