Confucian Sword Fairy

Chapter 82
Hearing the voice, Song Zhishu turned his head and found three people standing in the aisle behind him.

The three of them have different appearances, but without exception, they are all monks, and they are all dressed in black. The one on the left is short and dark-complexioned, and the one on the right is fair-faced. He is holding a folding fan and has a jade pendant around his waist. He looks a bit extraordinary. Both of them are practicing Qi Ninth Level Dzogchen.

The one in the middle is a tall middle-aged man, like an iron tower, his eyebrows look a bit sinister, and his aura is even more vigorous. His cultivation base is in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, and it is this man who spoke just now.

"It turned out to be Daoyou Lin, Daoyou Wang and Daoyou Li."

When Song Zhishu saw the three of them, his tone was gentle, and at the same time he slightly bowed his hands in salute.

Of these three people, Lin Cheng is the strongest in the middle, and the other two are Wang Chong and Li Xiansong. They all live in the guest room next to theirs. They have communicated with each other a few days ago and got to know each other. According to several people , are all loose cultivators, without any school or sect.

Song Zhishu learned a lot of news about Qingzhou City from the three of them, but they can only be regarded as meeting by chance.

"Young Daoist Song, you're being polite." Lin Cheng laughed, his personality seemed a bit bold and informal.

The other two also chose to return the gift, but they didn't say much.

This is normal, everyone is not familiar with each other, and there is really not much to talk about.

"Are the three fellow Taoists planning to go out to kill demons?"

Song Zhishu opened his mouth and said politely.

Qingzhou City is close to the Qingyun Mountains, where there are many monsters, veins and various elixir, so most of the monks in the city, in order to earn spirit stones, will choose to go to the Qingyun Mountains to kill monsters and find elixir.

And during the chats in the past few days, Song Zhishu learned that the same is true for the people in front of him, and he would go to Wanshi Pavilion to pick up some tasks if he had nothing to do.

Wanshi Pavilion is not just as simple as doing business, as long as it is related to practice, it is basically involved.

For example, post some tasks, and then give rewards and the like.

in short.

It's a bit like Taihao Jianzong's mountain patrol mission.

"Yes."

Lin Cheng nodded, and then said with a smile: "By the way, Song Daoyou, how did you think about what I told you last time? This opportunity is really rare. Although the three of us have some means, if you help , the confidence will be greater.”

His tone was very sincere, without any falsehood, and he invited Song Zhishu.

"This"

Song Zhishu heard the words, but did not answer immediately.

I have heard what Lin Cheng said last time. It is a task they accepted in Wanshi Pavilion. Although the reward is very rich, it is also very difficult. There may be dangers, and the journey is also very troublesome. some time.

So when the other party mentioned it, Song Zhishu did not agree, but only said to consider it.

Obviously, the three of them did not choose to give up at this moment, and continued to invite.

Song Zhishu is indeed short of spirit stones now.

But this is not in Taihao Sword Sect after all, the three of them are not familiar with each other, and they have never fully understood the details. There is too much trust to speak of, so caution must be exercised.

"Song Daoyou is not in a hurry to reply, anyway, there is still some time before that matter begins."

However, Lin Cheng seemed to have expected it, and immediately continued with a smile: "Song Daoyou can think clearly. If you decide, you can come to us at any time, whether you want to go or not. It is equivalent to getting acquainted."

He was not in a hurry to get Song Zhishu to agree, but instead gave him enough time to think about it, and his words were impeccable.

Obviously, casual cultivators outside, who can achieve certain achievements, are not as simple as they seem on the surface.

Just like Lin Cheng, he looks rough and bold, but when he speaks, he makes people feel very comfortable.

"Okay, thank you Fellow Daoist Lin for your understanding, then I will take my leave first."

Song Zhishu bowed his hand, and he wanted to try the specific power of the saint's sword embryo that had transformed into a low-grade spiritual weapon, so he didn't want to stay any longer.

"Song Daoyou walk slowly."

Lin Cheng also bowed slightly, watching Song Zhishu leave.

Wait until Song Zhishu walks out of the inn.

The short man named Wang Chong came out and couldn't help but said, "Brother Lin, although that task is a bit difficult, with our strength and generous rewards, it will definitely not be difficult to find another Foundation Establishment cultivator. Why did you have to invite this Zhishu Song? Besides, not only we accepted the task, but also other people."

Wang Chong was really puzzled in his heart. It was indeed powerful in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, but it was not impossible to find it in Qingzhou City.

So he felt that if he continued to wait for Song Zhishu's reply like this, he was afraid that he would miss the opportunity.

Li Xiansong next to him did not speak, apparently unable to figure it out.

The Foundation Establishment Realm is indeed a great help, but it doesn't need to be so labor-intensive, and it also wastes time.

"You two don't know something."

Lin Cheng thought for a while, and then smiled: "This fellow Daoist Song is not as simple as it looks on the surface. One person can live in a good guest room in Yunlingzhai. , I can't see through it, and this person is extremely extraordinary in terms of temperament and way of speaking, I conclude that Song Daoyou is definitely not an ordinary casual cultivator."

"Perhaps a disciple from a certain family of cultivators, or even a sect who went out to practice, with his help, this mission will be very confident."

As the leader of the three, Lin Cheng is different from the other two in terms of vision or thinking.

Intuition told him that Song Zhishu is definitely not simple, and his cultivation is very strong.

With such a character together, it will save a lot of worries.

If you can really get to know each other, it will be a way out for yourself in the future, so why not do it?

"Aristocratic families, even sect disciples?"

Hearing this, Wang Chong and Li Xiansong couldn't help but glance at each other. They are both casual cultivators, and they have endured a lot of hardships in cultivation to this level, but once they are disciples of aristocratic sects, it will be different. They have resources to feed them.

More importantly, such a person must have all kinds of pills, talismans, and even magic weapons for body protection.

A little more powerful, and also know how to practice Taoism. In terms of strength alone, it is definitely better than ordinary casual cultivators.

Because those who can be casual cultivators are not good at spiritual root or other aspects.

There are not many ways to fight against the enemy. Sometimes for the sake of cultivation, he is not willing to buy even magic weapons and talismans. After all, this kind of person has no strength and no background, and can only rely on himself for everything. How can he compare with the disciples of the aristocratic sect?
Of course, casual cultivators also have the advantages of casual cultivators, that is, they are experienced, thoughtful, know how to assess the situation, and will not act recklessly.

"If that's the case, then it's really worth waiting for Fellow Daoist Song."

Li Xiansong looked at the direction Song Zhishu left and nodded.

Their mission this time is different from the previous ones. At least two foundation-building monks are required to ensure safety, and they may not be able to complete it, but it will be much better if they have children from aristocratic families or sects to join.

Lin Cheng thought the same way, but he didn't say much, and left Yunlingzhai with the two of them.

at the same time.

After Song Zhishu left the inn, he walked out of Qingzhou City without stopping.

Then without hesitation, he directly called out the saint's sword embryo and stepped on it.

call out.

In the next moment, the saint's sword embryo jumped into the clouds carrying Song Zhishu. Song Zhishu was a little surprised at the speed. According to estimates, the current speed of the sword embryo is more than several times that of before, and it has not yet been blessed with mana.

"The speed has increased. I don't know how powerful it is under the blessing of the formation."

Song Zhishu thought about it, saw a deserted mountain forest below, and immediately chose to fall down.

At the same time, the sword embryo turned into a normal size and was held in his hand. He directly injected mana into it to activate the second formation.

Zheng!
The saint's sword embryo vibrated, emitting a dazzling light, splitting into three, and the sword intent surged.

Every sword shone with cold air, surrounding him, coming out according to his mind, and could be attacked or defended.

"go."

Song Zhishu worked out a formula, and the saint's sword embryo divided into three directly turned into a stream of light and shot out.

Bang bang bang.

I saw the ground where the sword tire passed, the trees collapsed and turned into dust, even the hard rocks couldn't stop them, and they were easily broken open.

Afterwards, as Song Zhishu withdrew his mana, the saint's sword fetus fell into his hand, and the two swords that were separated also disappeared.

"With my current cultivation base, dividing one into three is already the limit. If there are more, it is not impossible, but it is very troublesome to separate the primordial spirit to control it. The power will not increase but decrease."

Song Zhishu already had a general understanding of the power of the Saint Sword Embryo that had transformed into a low-grade spiritual weapon.

How many times better than before, especially with the blessing of the Dayan Sword Formation.

Allow yourself to do more ways to deal with the enemy.

Of course, if the strength becomes stronger, the power displayed by the Saint Sword Embryo will be even stronger than it is now.

"A low-grade spiritual weapon is most suitable for my current cultivation, so the sword embryo can be improved in a short period of time without further improvement, unless my realm increases, and the most important thing next is to improve my strength."

Song Zhishu murmured to himself, and then took out the Lingyuan Pills he bought earlier from the storage bag, and after calculation, there were less than thirty pills left.

"Generally, a monk in the early stage of foundation establishment can refine one Lingyuan pill a day. With the blessing of righteousness, I can refine up to about twenty pills a day. At this speed, it takes about one pill to reach the middle stage of foundation establishment. Yue, in addition, the body also needs to be strengthened, otherwise it will be difficult to support the strong mana in the body."

There are only 22 auras of righteousness left in my body, if there are more, the speed of refining Lingyuan Dan should be faster.

Of course, fast speed is useless, you need to have enough spirit stones to buy pills.

Previously, Song Zhishu estimated that from the early stage to the middle stage of foundation establishment, there would be at least [-] Lingyuan pills. According to one hundred spirit stones, that would be at least [-] spirit stones. In addition, daily maintenance costs are required.

And the cultivation of physique also needs to catch up, the two are indispensable.

"The higher the realm, the more resources there will be."

In fact, Song Zhishu knew about it before.

If you were an ordinary early-stage foundation-building monk, you would not need as many as five hundred if you wanted to reach the middle stage. The key lies in the fact that the spirit pool I opened up is different from ordinary people. More
Song Zhishu let out a breath of foul air, and without thinking too much, he drove the saint's sword embryo back to Qingzhou City.

After returning to Yunlingzhai, he went directly into the room and closed the door.

Finally, take out the spirit pen from the storage bag.

Now I still have 20 middle-grade spirit-level gems in my hand. If all of them can be engraved, I can sell them to Wanshi Pavilion for [-] spirit stones. It should take a while, but if I want to finish it, I need to say one less thing. moon.

a bit long.

Therefore, Song Zhishu planned to engrave five pieces first, and use them to buy Lingyuan pills.

The spirit pen fell, bursts of light surged.

soon.

Seven days passed in a flash.

Song Zhishu took the inscribed treasure to Wanshi Pavilion.

It was also received by the girl in blue and introduced Song Zhishu into the private room, but when she saw the five finished middle-grade spiritual-level gems, her face showed shock again, and she couldn't help asking: "Master Song, these are all yours." The ones you took away last time, were they inscribed?"

"good."

Song Zhishu nodded.

"This"

When the girl in blue heard the words, she couldn't help it immediately: "Master Song Immortal, your speed is too fast, maybe you are about to meet the second-rank high-grade inscription master?"

You must know that it has only been seven days since the other party came last time. The time is too short, and it is difficult for ordinary second-level mid-level inscription masters to do it.

Even if it can be done, it will take a lot of energy, and you must rest to recover.

But now the girl in blue looked at Song Zhishu, but she didn't look like she was exhausted at all, but she was still full of energy.

Such a performance is enough to prove that the soul of the person in front of him is extremely strong, which is beyond the reach of ordinary foundation-building monks.

"almost."

Song Zhishu did not deny it either.

In fact, considering that I am now comparable to the primordial spirit in the early stage of alchemy, engraving a top-grade spiritual gem has a very high success rate, even the best spiritual gem can be tried.

But that means it will take longer.

Therefore, he didn't explain much, just said: "Miss, please help me convert all of these into Lingyuan Pills, five hundred."

"Yes, Song Shangxian." The girl in blue bowed and left the private room hastily.

She came back soon after, holding the storage bag she had prepared in her hand, and said with a smile, "Song Shangxian, the five middle-grade spirit-level gems are confirmed to be correct, and they can just fold the spirit yuan pill you need. Please count them .”

Hearing this, Song Zhishu poked out his soul, and then nodded after knowing that there was no problem: "Thank you, girl in blue."

Afterwards, he returned to the guest room with the purchased Lingyuan Pill.

But Song Zhishu didn't immediately start refining.

Instead sit down.

During this period of time, besides engraving precious jade, I also practice meditation, read and write, and I am quite busy every day, so I have no time to do other things at all.

"I left Taihao Sword Sect to travel thousands of miles, to know and do, but I never thought of this Qingzhou City, and returned to the old days."

Song Zhishu couldn't help laughing bitterly after thinking about the things he did after coming to Qingzhou City.

There is no way to do this. Cultivation requires resources, otherwise it will be difficult to make progress.

But if this is the case, then what is the significance of leaving Taihao Sword Sect?Is it just to change a place to practice?
So we must get rid of this situation, otherwise, if we continue, we will not go on the journey of thousands of miles.

"Before Daoist Lin said that the mission he accepted was quite rewarding. Can I choose to agree? In this way, on the one hand, I can earn spirit stones, on the other hand, I can continue to know and do, and more importantly, if I kill monsters You can also gain awe-inspiring righteousness, killing three birds with one stone."

Song Zhishu thought of Lin Cheng's invitation a few days ago, and it was indeed a good choice to leave and go out to do missions.

As for whether they will encounter any danger, with their current strength, even if those three people have ulterior motives, they will not pose much threat.

"It can be a try."

As Song Zhishu thought about it, he had already made a decision in his heart.

But before that, you need to improve your cultivation as much as possible. Only with strong strength can you ignore possible crises.

At this point in his thoughts, Song Zhishu did not hesitate, took out the Lingyuan Pill from the storage bag, and chose to refine and upgrade.

then.

Song Zhishu maintained the refining speed of twenty Shenyuan pills per day.

Twenty days later, in the room.

The incomparably thick aura of heaven and earth oscillated and turned into tides, like mountains and mountains, all of which poured into Song Zhishu's body, wandered among the limbs and bones, and finally merged into the spirit pool.

At the same time, the last Shenyuan Pill in his hand was refined by Haoran Zhengqi.

Song Zhishu opened his eyes, which were as bright as stars.

And there is also an aura that surpasses the past emerges straight from his body.

One after another mana continued to swim around, and the aura of the whole person was stronger than before, especially the pale golden spiritual field in the body, which directly increased by another nine inches at this moment, reaching the size of eighteen inches. mana.

These magic powers continued to wander from the spiritual pool, washing every inch of Song Zhishu's flesh and blood, and benefiting his body as well.

In the middle of the Foundation Establishment Stage, it's done.

"The spirit pool has reached eighteen inches, so my mana is double what it was before?"

Feeling the mana constantly surging like a river in his body, Song Zhishu seemed to have inexhaustible strength. This is a change in power, which can make people's hearts surge, and he couldn't help but find someone to try.

However, after many years of self-cultivation, he immediately suppressed this feeling, and his eyes became calm.

"In the mid-stage of foundation establishment, it's really good to put it in Qingzhou City, but in Taihao Sword Sect, they are only outer disciples, so there is nothing to be proud of." Song Zhishu smiled, recalling the scene in the law enforcement hall square that day.

Not to mention Headmaster Taihao and Mu Changge, just the method of that Lu'er girl is not something I can resist.

Foundation-building monks still look extremely inconspicuous in the great world.

shook his head.

Song Zhishu got up, stretched his muscles and bones, and at the same time felt the changes brought about by the improvement of his cultivation base.

"It's different from what I expected. It took more than 500 spirit pills to reach the middle stage of foundation establishment. If we want to go further, we need at least [-] spirit stones. That's [-] spirit stones. There is a long way to go."

Looking at the completely consumed Lingyuan Pill on the table, Song Zhishu fell into deep thought again.

To earn such a number of spirit stones, it would take at least twenty middle-grade spirit-grade gems.

Do you want to continue engraving?
"Is Daoyou Song here?"

And at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

After Song Zhishu tidied up a little, he opened the door. It was Lin Cheng and three people who immediately bowed: "Three fellow Taoists."

"Song Daoyou."

Lin Cheng, who was the leader, returned the gift, and then continued: "Song Daoyou, the three of us are here this time to bid farewell to you."
