Chapter 711 Jade Puppet Ironwood
Chapter 711 Jade Puppet Ironwood
early morning.
The Fifth Prince's Mansion came to visit Zhou Qing and presented him with a gift.
"Congratulations to Brother Zhou on his promotion to the venerable. This is a small gift prepared by His Highness for Brother Zhou. It is not a token of respect."
"At the same time, fellow Daoist Zhou, please rest assured that His Highness will properly discipline Young Master Ao. His Highness deeply apologizes for the trouble Young Master Ao has caused you."
Zhou Qing responded with a few simple words, and the people from the Fifth Prince's Mansion left.
Bai Ruoyue walked in from outside, took a look at the pile of gifts, and asked:
"Junior brother, are they here to apologize?"
"Almost, but there's no sincerity."
He didn't even come here in person, but just sent a subordinate here. It's obvious that he doesn't show sincerity.
However, the gift has to be accepted. If you refuse it, it would be equivalent to standing on the opposite side of Bai Chengqian.
Zhou Qing is not afraid, but it is not yet that point and there is no need to do so.
After taking a quick look at the gifts and making sure there was nothing wrong with them, Zhou Qing put them away.
"Big sister, let's go."
Zhou Qing called Bai Ruoyue and prepared to go out.
But before they left the Da Qi Taoist Temple, someone else came to look for Zhou Qing. This time it was the seventh prince of Da Qi.
Zhou Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, wondering what day it was this morning.
In the reception room, Zhou Qing met the Seventh Prince, an old man with white hair and beard, who looked very kind. His surname was Zheng, and his cultivation was not weak, probably at the third level of refining transformation.
After the greeting, Zhou Qing asked:
"I wonder why the Seventh Prince sent Elder Zheng here?"
"Your Highness heard that Fellow Daoist Zhou had arrived in Yujing, and he had long wanted to meet with you. But when you asked me to visit you last time, you were in seclusion, so we had no chance to meet."
"Now that I heard that you have reached the level of a Venerable, Your Highness admires you so much that he specially sent me to invite you to a banquet."
The Seventh Prince Attended the Banquet...
Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "I just broke through, and I still have a lot of things to do. It's related to cultivation, so I can't spare the time in a short period of time. I hope the Seventh Prince will forgive me."
"Please ask Mr. Zheng to inform His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince that when I am free in the future, I will definitely visit him in person and apologize to His Royal Highness in person."
Mr. Zheng's expression froze. He didn't expect Zhou Qing to refuse. But he had no way to deal with Zhou Qing's reason.
I have just made a breakthrough, so practice is definitely important.
"I understand. I was abrupt in handling Fellow Daoist Zhou's affairs."
Elder Zheng stood up and said goodbye, "Then I will not disturb you any more."
Zhou Qing saw him off, and after Mr. Zheng left, Bai Ruoyue smiled and said:
"Junior brother, you are so welcome."
"If you were in my position, with my achievements, you would also be popular."
"Let's go, let's leave first, in case someone else comes later."
Zhou Qing could foresee that many people would come to visit him, but most of them would be meaningless visits that would simply waste his time.
"Senior Brother Zhou!"
"Uncle Zhou!"
"..."
When leaving the Da Qi Taoist Temple, many people greeted Zhou Qing.
He first came to the Da Qi Taoist Temple as the first true disciple, and then broke through at a speed faster than lightning, directly ascending to the second level of refining and transformation.
This was a miracle. After the news spread, everyone was shocked. Now seeing Master Zhou Qing, they were extremely curious.
Watching Zhou Qing and the other person leave the Taoist temple, many people still felt amazed when they thought of his deeds.
"I don't know how Uncle Zhou cultivated, it's just like a legend."
“Alas, I heard that after the First True Transmission arrived in Yujing, I initially wanted to challenge him and see the sect’s genius, but I didn’t expect that before I found the opportunity, he had already broken through to the second level of True Blood Refining.”
"There are many people in the Taoist temple who think like you, but the facts have proved that Uncle Zhou is indeed an extraordinary person, and we cannot compare to him."
"The title of exiled immortal is well-deserved."
"..."
Legends are always legends, and a banished immortal is always a banished immortal, you have to accept it.
On the street of Xuandaofang, Bai Ruoyue sent a message to Zhou Qing.
"Junior brother, will you really visit the Seventh Prince in the future?"
"I will be leaving Yujing soon, so I won't have the time to visit him. I'm just being polite."
Zhou Qing shook his head slightly. "If it's not necessary, I don't want to get involved with the Daqi royal family, especially these princes. The royal family is too complicated, and I don't want to get involved."
"If I had accepted the invitation of the Seventh Prince just now, even if it was just a simple acquaintance, it might have been seen by the other princes as a signal that they would involve me in some matters in the future."
"The situation of the royal family is too complicated, and I don't want to get involved."
Bai Ruoyue nodded thoughtfully.
"Yes, when I was in the Ling family, I heard that the Ling family encountered many problems because of the Fifth Prince."
Zhou Qing nodded, "Especially since I am from Xuandu Temple. Although Xuandu Temple is the state religion of Daqi, it has been established for 400 years, and the relationship between the two sides has become somewhat delicate. If they are from the Zhou royal family or the Jin royal family, and I have intersections with them, then it is not a big problem."
"But the Da Qi royal family is different. To me, it's a quagmire, and a stinky one at that. I'm clean, so there's no need for me to jump into this quagmire."
"You too, Senior Sister. Be careful when you come into contact with the royal family in the future."
There is another question. Zhou Qing once killed Zuo Tianzheng...
From Zuo Tianzheng's perspective now, that was too weak.
But he has a special relationship with the current Emperor of Qi, and killing Zuo Tianzheng has always been a hidden danger.
Bai Ruoyue smiled and said, "I will be leaving Yujing soon, and I don't think I will have any contact with the royal family in the future."
"That's a good thing."
The royal family can be said to be the most troublesome place. The situation is even more complicated than that inside Xuandu Temple. In that imperial city, all kinds of cause and effect are entangled and extremely heavy. Once you are caught in it, trouble will come to you and it will be difficult to escape.
The royal families of the other two countries are okay. Zhou Qing is a foreigner, and Xuandu Temple is also a foreign force, so there is a layer of separation.
The Qi Bai family is the trouble that Zhou Qing least wants to get involved in.
The relationship between Xuandu Temple and the Da Qi royal family is delicate, and his status in Xuandu Temple is very high. He really doesn't want to interfere in those matters, so as not to send out any signals without knowing it and cause people to misjudge his position.
In a situation where the throne is undecided and the princes are eyeing it covetously, if you make friends with one prince, it means that you are directly on the opposite side of more princes, which is not a good thing.
Zhou Qing was originally on the shore and there was no need for him to go into the sea.
He should stay away from those disputes that are meaningless to him and practice well. When he reaches the heavenly realm or even higher in the future, he will naturally possess the power and status without him having to say anything.
The royal family of Da Qi is very powerful and is one of the strongest families in the world. If the disciples of Xuandu Temple are really involved in the royal disputes, they will not be able to withstand it and may lose their lives.
The Sima family of Jin had a magical weapon to suppress the family's fortune, and they had just established their country in the midst of hardships. How could the Bai family of Qi be worse off?
Since ancient times, any family that could compete for the world and eventually establish its dominance was the best of the best. The weaker ones had no way to break through the siege and have the last laugh.
After each royal family unified part of the human territory and founded a dynasty, they owned vast territories and were able to control more resources.
The speed of development and growth will only be faster than before becoming a royal family!
The price for a noble family to become a royal family is to bear the immeasurable karma of humanity, and the disciples in the family will no longer have the chance to become immortals.
With such a heavy price to pay, the rewards obtained are naturally extremely generous.
All the resources in the world are in your hands, you can take whatever you want!
If you jump into such an unfathomable quagmire, you will drown.
During the exchange, Zhou Qing and Bai Ruoyue came to Yi Jin Fang.
All the major business organizations, including the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce, gathered here. This was the land that Yujing had specially allocated for them.
Various chambers of commerce, trading companies, markets, and trading places can be seen.
Zhou Qing wanted to find two materials to help the Six Spirit Puppets advance to the Earth Realm, so of course it was most appropriate to come here.
Yi Jin Fang was very lively, and most of the people here were practitioners. Zhou Qing took Bai Ruoyue and went straight to the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce.
The Wanxing Chamber of Commerce here is very grand, with nine floors high.
After entering the Chamber of Commerce, it is very spacious, with people coming and going, and booths lined up with goods on display.
Zhou Qing observed and found that the goods on the first floor were all for the flesh and blood realm and the visualization realm. There was nothing better, so they should be on the upper floors.
“It’s well planned.”
After finding the staff of Wanxing Chamber of Commerce, Zhou Qing and the other person were taken to meet the supervisor of the Venerable Realm.
"A distinguished guest has arrived."
After exchanging a few polite words with the manager, Zhou Qing directly stated his demands.
Yuantu, Hainajin, and a few other treasures that are missing for refining the Ten Earths Treasure Liquid.
The manager thought for a moment and gave Zhou Qing the answer that they had two treasures needed to refine the Ten Earths Treasure Liquid.
"Yuantu and Hainajin, these two things are mostly used in the way of puppets, and the Chamber of Commerce does not have any in stock now."
"But I can provide you with news about Yuantu." Zhou Qing was refreshed, "I am willing to buy this news."
The steward shook his head and said, "There are many people who know this news. I will give it to Brother Daoist Zhou for free."
"Two years ago, Taoist Tiemu of the Jade Puppet Pavilion in Andingfang once collected a large amount of Yuan Tu to refine puppets. Even now, he is still purchasing Yuan Tu intermittently. He must not have used up all the Yuan Tu and there is still some left."
"It would be more efficient for Brother Zhou to go directly to Taoist Tiemu rather than looking for it elsewhere. Most of the Yuantu from the major chambers of commerce have been purchased by him."
"Have you been buying up Yuantu?"
Zhou Qing thought for a moment and asked, "I wonder where that Taoist Tiemu came from?"
"He is a casual cultivator. He got some opportunities by chance in his early years, which were related to puppets. Now he is a master in Huangquan Realm. He runs Yukui Pavilion in Yujing, specializing in puppet business. Now he has a wide network of contacts."
This kind of information is of no value and can be easily found out, so the manager told Zhou Qing directly.
"Is this so..."
Zhou Qing made up his mind and bought the two treasures needed for the Ten Earth Treasure Liquid from the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce.
But he did not leave immediately. Instead, he purchased some other things, such as things that would be useful to Bai Ruoyue, and various medicinal herbs.
If the Thousand Medicine Gourd wants to work, it has to be filled with various medicinal materials. Zhou Qing definitely does not have a thousand kinds of medicinal materials on him, so he needs to purchase them from outside.
A breath of thousand medicinal energy could extend the Venerable's life by ten years and improve the merits of a month's hard practice. Zhou Qing was quite looking forward to it.
After the purchase was completed, the two went to the Baiyu Chamber of Commerce.
This Chamber of Commerce is also very powerful because the people behind it are Qi Baishi, who has the support of the royal family in Yujingdu City, so it is difficult for it not to grow stronger.
In the White Jade Chamber of Commerce, Zhou Qing obtained the Heina Gold and another treasure needed for the Ten Earth Treasure Liquid.
We also harvested some medicinal herbs, but not as much as we got at the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce.
Later, Zhou Qing visited many famous chambers of commerce in Yujing City and obtained a lot of various medicinal materials.
In fact, he could ask someone else to do such things, and there was no need to do it himself.
But because Bai Ruoyue was there, Zhou Qing went there not only to buy treasures, but also to accompany Bai Ruoyue to stroll around Yujing and relax.
It’s just a pity that I didn’t get the Yuantu.
"It seems that I can only go find that Taoist Tiemu."
In such a huge city like Yujing, there must be other people who have Yuantu, such as those within the royal family. However, by comparison, it is easier to find that Taoist Tiemu.
Bai Ruoyue asked worriedly, "I think Taoist Tiemu has his own uses for collecting Yuantu. Would he be unwilling to trade with you, Junior Brother?"
"Just give it a try."
Zhou Qing did not go directly to Yukui Pavilion, but returned to Daqi Taoist Temple first. He found some information about Taoist Tiemu.
The Da Qi Taoist Temple will conduct certain investigations on those well-known masters in Yujing City to understand their origins and various information.
Now it is convenient for Zhou Qing as he can check it at any time.
Taoist Tiemu is a master of the Yellow Springs Realm and the Netherworld Realm.
The Netherworld Realm is the first small level of the Yellow Springs Realm, but being ranked in the realm of the earth, it is after all extraordinary and otherworldly, and its strength is very powerful.
In addition to being a master of the Yellow Springs Realm, Taoist Tiemu also possesses a puppet that is comparable to a warrior of the Earth Realm, which he refined himself.
Of course, the strength of that puppet was only at the Netherworld level, not much different from his. And since the birth of that Earth Realm puppet, although he had refined Earth Realm puppets for others, he himself had never owned a second Earth Realm puppet.
The practice of puppetry is not that simple. Every puppet practitioner generally has a natal puppet, and it is relatively easy to improve this natal puppet.
But it will be very difficult to refine a powerful puppet again later.
Not only are the materials and treasures difficult to collect, but the level of puppet refining required is also very high.
However, even with only one Earth Realm puppet, Taoist Tiemu gained great fame. After all, compared with other casual cultivators, he could be said to have "greater numbers and greater strength."
Taoist Tiemu has a strange personality. For example, when someone asks him to make a puppet, it all depends on his mood.
When he is in a good mood, he will make a move even if the reward is low. When he is in a bad mood, I won't see him even if the reward is high.
But his actions are relatively fair. The price of helping others and the price of selling puppets in the Jade Puppet Pavilion are not high and are relatively reasonable.
If he cannot refine a puppet, he will make it clear in advance and will not intentionally take on difficult tasks just for the sake of reward.
He doesn't have any bad reputation, at most people find him difficult to get along with.
Two years ago, Taoist Tiemu started collecting Yuan Tu, saying that he would use it to refine new puppets, but his collection of Yuan Tu has not yet ended to this day.
Yuantu is a treasure that is widely used in puppet refining. It is peaceful, very inclusive, and highly malleable, and can be used in most types of puppet refining.
After Zhou Qing finished reading Taoist Tiemu's message, he pondered for a moment and decided to meet this Earth Puppet Master.
This time he did not bring Bai Ruoyue with him, and went to Andingfang and Yukui Pavilion alone.
This is a two-story building with a large yard behind it.
"Sir, welcome to the Jade Puppet Pavilion. What do you need?"
Zhou Qing said straight to the point: "I am Zhou Qing, a disciple of Xuandu, and I would like to meet your Tiemu Pavilion Master."
"Ah, wait a moment, sir. I will go and report it right away."
Not long after, the man who had just left came out.
"The Pavilion Master asked me to bring you in. Please come in, sir."
"It's troublesome."
After entering the building, a small courtyard appears in front of you. In the courtyard there is a jujube tree, under which are a stone table and stone benches.
A middle-aged man with a three-dimensional face, empty eyes, and short hair that stood up like steel needles sat on a stone bench.
"Meet Pavilion Master Tiemu."
"sit down."
Pavilion Master Tiemu refocused his eyes and looked at Zhou Qing with a look of surprise.
"Zhou Qing? I remember that you just became the first true disciple of Xuandu Temple at the end of last year. Now you have reached the second level of True Blood Refining?"
He had heard of Zhou Qing, but it was obvious that he knew the Zhou Qing who had just become the first true disciple.
Seeing him now, Taoist Tiemu even thought that someone was bold enough to pretend to be the first true disciple of Xuandu Temple.
More than three months, from the first true transmission to the second true blood refinement?
What a fairy tale!
It was obvious that Taoist Tiemu had not received the news about what happened yesterday.
Compared with those big forces, independent cultivators are indeed a little behind in collecting information in certain aspects.
"I made some progress and broke through to the True Blood Realm." Zhou Qing smiled and said:
"I have been in Yujing for about half a month."
Staring at Zhou Qing, the shock in Tiemu Dao Ren's heart could not be wiped away, and he finally sighed:
"The exiled immortal Zhou Qing lives up to his reputation."
This speed of cultivation is really like that of an immortal who is practicing again, it is incredibly fast.
"You are overpraising me, Master."
"Don't be polite." Tiemu Pavilion Master asked:
"I have rarely interacted with your Xuandu Temple. As a great Xuandu Temple genius, you must not come to visit me for no reason."
"If you have anything to do, tell me."
"I heard that the Pavilion Master has Yuantu here, I want to buy some from you."
"Elemental Earth?"
Pavilion Master Tiemu was a little surprised and nodded:
"I do have some here, but the Yuantu is of great use to me, so I can't sell it to others."
Before Zhou Qing could open his mouth to persuade him, he heard Taoist Tiemu ask again:
"What do you want the Yuantu for? Make a puppet?"
"Yes, I have a puppet, and I want to upgrade its level. I need a treasure like Yuantu."
"A puppet that can make you work so hard for it with your current strength must be very good."
Taoist Tiemu's eyes lit up and he asked:
"If your puppet advances successfully, what strength can it reach?"
"That puppet is now at the limit of true blood. If everything goes well, it will naturally become a ground puppet after advancement."
"Earth Puppet..."
Taoist Tiemu's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he said:
"How about we make a deal?"
"Master, please speak?"
"I will give you Yuantu and help you upgrade your puppet without asking for any money. You should also need to find someone to help you refine the puppet. I can do that."
"If your puppet advances successfully, then you can lend it to me for a while and I will return it to you later."
Zhou Qing didn't expect that Taoist Tiemu would propose such a deal.
Provide me with the Yuantu and help me refine it. I will need to borrow it for a while...
Could it be that Liu Bei was borrowing Jingzhou?
