Thousands of miles to the northeast, there is an unnamed island.
There was firelight in the cave.
Remove from the heat——
Wrong.
It's time to open the furnace.
As the elixir fire flickered, the elixir that was melted in the elixir furnace became translucent and crystal clear.
At this time, the furnace cover flew up and Shen Lian called out.
"Big Black."
Dahei, who was crushing spirit potatoes with a pair of large pliers, swiftly threw the crushed spirit potatoes into the alchemy furnace.
Shen Lian made some hand gestures and put the furnace lid back on.
The elixir liquid and the spirit potato merged into one in the elixir fire, and were soon divided into hundreds of crystal clear pills by divine consciousness.
That’s right, fellow Taoists, you should have noticed that ‘it’ is refining happiness pills for everyone.
The new version of Happy Pill has increased the amount of pills produced by a single furnace by more than one third.
Efficiency is increased, and the quantity is increased without increasing the price.
After the Happy Pills were produced, Shen Lian was too lazy to put them in a jade bottle and directly put them into the storage bag. As a conscientious medicine dealer, he focused on using real ingredients and not using those pretentious fake packaging.
In addition to refining pills, Shen Lian did not forget to practice magic.
He can use talismans against the enemy, but for himself, magic is also the last barrier.
He has lived near Dongsheng Immortal City for more than half a year.
In the past six months, there has not been any large-scale sighting of Xuanshi Sect monks heading to Haiyuan Island.
This also made Shen Lian feel at ease.
Since it was stable, he decided to stay for a few more days.
Nightfall.
A flash of light appeared in Shen Lian's hand, and the No. 1 Tianyan treasure appeared. He held it in his arms and stuffed the No. 2 jade talisman into his waist.
There were also black-horned demon ants standing guard all around, each with a No. 3 Tianyan jade talisman on their forehead, crawling around the cave.
There are spirit puppets hiding everywhere on the island, among the soil, rocks, water and trees.
Shen Lian swallowed a Spirit Gathering Pill and began to refine it.
The night is deep.
[Keep calm, insight points +1]
[Keep calm, insight points +1]
…
[Calm down, insight points +2]
…
During this period of time, Shen Lian did not travel or think about mining. He just made pills and comprehended spells every day. Instead, he felt very relaxed.
After escaping from Ao Shi Xian City, my mind, which had been tossed all the way, finally found a warm harbor.
The moonlight shines on the small island.
The black-horned ants looked up at the sky, the earth, the sea, and the surroundings.
Occasionally, a streak of light would pass quickly across the sea outside the island.
Inside the cave.
Shen Lian, who was in a state of cultivation, fell into a dark state.
[God has no external things, God's enlightenment point +1]
[God has no external things, God's enlightenment point +1]
…
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
[God has no external things, God's enlightenment point +1]
An ethereal voice sounded from the darkness. Shen Lian, who was holding the large jade talisman No. 1, trembled. He suddenly woke up and looked around.
"call……"
He let out a long sigh, put away the jade talisman, and took out the Soul-Feeding Pill to reward the black-horned demon ant on guard.
I don’t know what’s going on. Sometimes, even though I’m sleeping soundly, my body always twitches unexpectedly.
Even though he's cultivating immortality, he's still like this.
After standing outside and looking at the stars, Shen Lian returned to the cave, his eyes shining with spiritual light.
【Divine Enlightenment Points: 16】
This is the accumulation of several years after leaving Thousand Kings Island.
He had been displaced a lot during this period, and the process of running away took up a lot of his time. He had not been able to settle down properly, so he was satisfied to have these insights.
As for the points of enlightenment, they have now accumulated to [37459]
Soon, Shen Lian focused his attention on the point of divine enlightenment.
"ah……"
With a comfortable hum, he lay in the cave holding the large jade talisman No. 1 in his arms and squinted his eyes.
There is a warm energy surging in the Dantian.
Just like...
After staying comfortable for most of the night, Shen Lian changed into a new robe the next day.
【Earth Spiritual Root 60】
At this moment, his earth spirit root scale officially entered the upper grade category.
…
Time flies, the days and months pass by like a shuttle.
The ordinary life of cultivating immortals always goes by quickly.
After adding the divine enlightenment points to the earth spirit roots, Shen Lian used his perception points to allow himself to accept the inheritance of a second-level mid-grade formation master.
The stable life also gave him time to think about the path of cultivating immortality.
He summed up his experience of running away over the years and found a problem.
There is nothing wrong with this purchasing method: we buy whatever the monks need.
But if it happens to him, he will encounter a very embarrassing situation.
That means running away when encountering a crisis, and perhaps not being able to find a suitable neighborhood for several years.
Now I am still in the foundation-building stage. When I reach the golden elixir stage, I will have to retreat and hide for decades, which will delay my cultivation.
To plan ahead, we should build stability on logistics.
As a result, Shen Lian, who had been in seclusion on a deserted island for a year, realized the evolved version 1.1 of the true meaning of his practice.
The only core of the truth is to buy, buy and buy, and turn yourself into a mobile warehouse.
As long as he carries the resources of a cultivation world with him, he will not be afraid anywhere he goes.
Under this guiding ideology, Shen Lian sorted through the spoils again. All the ores and other things needed to be kept as reserves for his future career as a weapon refiner.
Not to mention medicinal herbs.
As for what to buy, Shen Lian, who possesses four major skills: alchemy, talisman making, formation, and puppetry, has an extremely detailed list.
Even if you can't buy everything, some commonly used items need to be prepared in advance.
…
Outside Dongsheng Immortal City.
A young monk who looked to be in his thirties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, walked quickly out of the city and headed towards a spirit ship anchored outside the city.
It was Shen Lian after his transformation.
Looking at the spirit ship in front of him, he shook his head slightly. This was the most dilapidated spirit ship he had encountered after riding on so many spirit ships.
The outside of the spirit ship was covered with patches, and the spirit sails on the deck were full of big holes.
The spirit ship was originally painted blue, but after many repairs, it has become a battle-damaged version.
The spirit ship is a bit broken, but the ticket price is not cheap at all. It takes 1,200 low-grade spirit stones to travel from Dongsheng Immortal City to Canxing Islands, which is more than 100,000 miles away.
Shen Lian, who had just come out of Dongsheng Immortal City, had less than 5,000 spirit stones left out of the nearly 40,000 spirit stones in his storage bag.
However, the storage bag was filled with happy pills.
The Star Islands is the first place he wants to bring happiness.
"My fellow Taoists, the spirit ship is about to set sail. Please close the doors and windows and keep steady."
"Please keep an eye on your children if you have them."
As a lively and pleasant voice sounded from the spirit ship, the entire spirit ship began to shake violently, and gusts of wind erupted from under the spirit ship.
There was also lightning mixed in the wind, forming a thundercloud.
Then, violent creaking sounds came from the spirit ship, and windows and doors everywhere began to swing repeatedly.
Boom! With this trembling sound, the spirit ship finally took off successfully after half a quarter of an hour and flew towards the clouds.
Inside the box, Shen Lian had a blank expression on his face as he looked at the swaying window panes and the hole in the door.
This spiritual ship named Haifenglei comes from the Qian family of Chihulu Island and belongs to a Jindan family under the Xuanshi Sect.
It is true that the Qian family is a Jindan family, but the family’s residence is close to the sea clan’s waters, and they need to rely on the Xuanshi Sect to withstand the pressure from the sea clan.
The reason why the Haifenglei spirit ship is so dilapidated is that it participated in a war with the sea clan.
After the war, the Xuanshi Sect rewarded the Qian family according to their merits, giving them enough rewards, more than enough to replace a new spirit ship.
But the Qian family's Jindan ancestor was used to being frugal, so he patched up the ship and made it continue to serve the family.
Fortunately, the Qian family still had some conscience. Knowing that the spirit ship’s formation was damaged, they deployed it to the route from Dongsheng to Canxing Islands.
To the east of this sea area is the Qian family, and to the west is the Xuanshi Sect, so the route is very safe.
…
More than ten days later.
Shen Lian was practicing when someone knocked on the door.
In fact, there was no need to knock on the door. There was a big hole on the door. Shen Lian saw a big round face through the hole.
"Senior, there will be an exchange meeting on the deck of the spirit ship in an hour. I am here on the orders of the young master to invite you to participate."
The round-faced female cultivator's voice was quite lively.
"good."
Looking at the dilapidated environment around him, Shen Lian had no intention of practicing. It would be nice to go and have a look if there was an opportunity to exchange items. Anyway, he didn't have many spirit stones left.
…
But when Shen Lian came to the deck, he was stunned and shocked.
The scale of this trade fair is quite large.
Bigger isn't the point.
The point is…
The entire deck, which was dozens of feet in radius, was filled with cultivators, ranging from those practicing Qi training to those building foundations.
At the highest point in the middle of the deck, a monk wearing a patched robe and with so much fat on his body that it looked like a mountain was shouting at the top of his lungs.
The key point is that this person's aura is that of a foundation-building cultivator.
"Dear fellow Taoists, I am Qian Dai from the Qian family. Thank you for your strong support."
"Everyone take a look, there are a wide variety of spiritual items, all of them are of good quality and at a low price."
"If you buy it, you'll make a profit. My Qian family's sign is here. If you buy it at a high price, you can return it."
"You can't afford to suffer a loss or be deceived."
"Deep sea corals, the residue swept out of the alchemy furnace of the Xuanhai Sect's great alchemist, everything."
"The kidneys of the sea tribe are very nutritious."
…
"The minimum consumption for this game is four spirit stones. Give face to the heaven, give face to the earth, give face to the Xuanshi Sect, and give face to my old man from the Qian family."
"My name is Qian Dai, the fellow who is in the Foundation Establishment stage. If you want something, let's sit down and discuss it in detail."
Looking at the fat hand that was stretched out with difficulty, Shen Lian flew down from the bridge.
A cultivator who has established his foundation has long been able to control the blood, flesh and essence throughout his body to change his physical appearance. The fact that he can possess such a strong body can only mean that he likes it.
"Excuse me, my family doesn't give me a monthly salary, so I have no choice but to start a small business on my own."
As Qian Dai waved his hand, a female monk quickly placed a table and chairs on the side.
"I don't recognize you, fellow Taoist."
"But it doesn't matter. The first time is the last time. The monks who take this route all know my name, Qian Dai. I am honest and trustworthy. The goods are of good quality and low price. If you pay too much, you can return it to me."
"I won't use my old man who is at the peak of the middle Jindan period and is about to be promoted to the late Jindan period to pressure you."
"Come and have tea."
Before Shen Lian could say a word, Qian Dai had already said many words.
"Fellow Daoist, if you need something, it's okay if you don't like the ones on the stalls below. Just tell me what you want. If I have it, we can trade on the spot. If I don't have it, I can find a way."
"Do you have the original Xuanling Jadeite?"
