Chapter 58 includes the Mystic Serpent and a complete set of magical artifacts.
Shazhou.
Three Pillars Mountain.
Halfway up the main peak, inside one of the stone buildings.
There are several wooden buildings here to welcome guests, and the area is complemented by a sacred pond and ancient pine and cypress trees, giving it a rather elegant feel.
Inside the wooden building, Lin Li sat cross-legged on a futon made of spiritual herbs, cultivating and meditating while waiting for the magic weapon to be completed.
This time, the refining of Ouyang Jue will be done in collaboration with Huo Yun, and it will only take a little over a month, so we are waiting here.
Lin Li took out the gourd he had previously obtained from Ouyang Jue, extracted a wisp of blood energy from it, and refined it into his body.
[Inclusion successful]
[Second-tier superior bloodline, the Blazing Fire Serpent!]
The next moment, a huge serpent projection, its body completely red and nearly twenty feet long, appeared on the Reincarnation Disc.
This spirit snake bloodline was originally purchased by Ouyang Jue to stimulate and enhance the Fire Cloud bloodline. Although it had an effect, it wasn't significant, so it remained in Ouyang Jue's storage bag.
At this moment, as soon as the projection of the Fire Serpent appeared, it fell towards the center of the Reincarnation Disc, and the golden-armored giant ape that originally occupied it was put at a disadvantage in the bloodline struggle.
Ultimately, the central position of the Reincarnation Plate was occupied by the bloodline of the Fire Serpent.
This also explains why the bloodline of the Fire Serpent is stronger than that of the Golden Armored Giant Spirit Ape.
Just as Ouyang Jue said, the essence and blood of a third-tier spiritual cultivator are something that even a Foundation Establishment cultivator would never possess, let alone any item related to the Core Formation stage.
These are top-tier treasures even within the Foundation Establishment stage, and will inevitably attract the covetous eyes of other cultivators of the same level.
"Shadow Gate Market."
A thoughtful look flashed in Lin Li's eyes.
This market was created by the Thousand Shadows Pavilion, a powerful organization at the Core Formation stage. That's why there might be some valuable items related to the Core Formation stage at the auction.
The auction in Yingmen Market is held once every ten years. Ouyang Jue has participated in it several times and has been able to buy one or two spiritual materials that he likes.
Many fellow cultivators, wary of the Thousand Shadows Pavilion's reputation, dared not target other cultivators in the market. As long as they slipped away quickly enough from the market, they wouldn't easily encounter any cultivators who had been afflicted by tribulations.
Sandstorms raged across the desert.
It affects the perception of the divine sense. Once they leave the market and escape into the vast sea of sand, it is very difficult for Foundation Establishment cultivators to locate the whereabouts of other cultivators who have escaped.
According to the jade slip given by Ouyang Jue.
The next auction held in Shadow Gate Market will be in three years, which is not long from now.
At that time, you will definitely have the essence and soul of a third-level spiritual cultivator, and it would be good to purchase a set of ice-type cultivation techniques that can be cultivated to the late stage of Foundation Establishment or even above.
Nowadays, cultivation techniques reach their limit at the early stage of Foundation Establishment and have no further development. Although there are cultivation techniques in Baiquan Lake Market that can be cultivated to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, they are only earth-based techniques.
Ice-type items are quite rare, so we can only pin our hopes on the auction at Shadow Gate Market.
After making his decision, Lin Li focused on meditation and cultivation.
...
More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Lin Li, who was sitting on the futon, seemed to sense something and stood up, looking towards the entrance of the stone building.
Ouyang Jue, dressed in a black iron vest and with a burly physique, walked into the stone building with a smile on his face.
Behind him, a fiery red serpent several feet long darted in and arrived in front of Lin Li in the blink of an eye.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Liu."
"The refining process went very smoothly this time."
"Master has put in a lot of effort and used up a lot of spiritual materials this time."
"Fellow Daoist, you've made quite a profit this time."
Huo Yun said in a cheerful tone.
"Fire Cloud, you mustn't speak carelessly."
"Fellow Daoist Liu, please observe."
At this moment, Ouyang Jue, who had just arrived, raised his hand and waved it. A set of black full-body armor floated in front of him, along with a black flying sword and an oval shield.
Lin Li released his divine sense to perceive, and indeed he could not detect much spiritual energy fluctuation in these magical artifacts; it was negligible.
If, after refining, these magical artifacts are controlled to prevent them from releasing spiritual power, it will be extremely difficult for other cultivators of the same level to detect their whereabouts.
Lin Li then left his divine sense imprint on each of these magical artifacts, infused them with his spiritual power, and after a simple refining process, he sensed layers of powerful restrictions within them.
They are all made of second-tier medium-grade materials.
The most powerful restriction was on the flying sword that could shield divine sense.
"Fellow Daoist, look what this is?"
Next, Ouyang Jue took out a set of black crystal needles. He could not sense them with divine sense either. Moreover, the crystal needles emitted a cold aura, as if ice-type materials had been added. Lin Li's eyes lit up when he saw them.
"This set of flying needles was forged by me personally."
"This is also a token of my gratitude to Fellow Daoist Liu for condensing a second-tier treasure crystal for me."
Ouyang Jue said in a very sincere tone.
"Then I, Liu, thank you very much!"
Lin Li clasped his hands in thanks.
I also collected these nine flying needles. They were all second-tier flying needles. If I combined them with the magic artifacts I had before and refined them all, I would have a great advantage when dealing with other Foundation Establishment stage cultivators.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, come, let's have a good drink today."
"The purple soul crystal that you sent, fellow Daoist, is extremely rare."
"Although it cost me a lot, I still made a profit."
After Ouyang Jue finished speaking, he immediately cast a hand seal, and one by one, human cultivators who had been prepared beforehand carried the cooked dishes into the stone building.
After a long chat.
Lin Licai left Sanzhu Mountain and made an agreement that if he encountered any good spiritual materials again, he would give them a discount when they came to Sanzhu Mountain to refine magical artifacts.
As for the second-tier demon puppet, Ouyang Jue fused its spiritual materials and purple soul crystal into one, further increasing the durability of this magical artifact.
Next, Lin Li planned to return to Baiquanhu Market.
He then devoted all his efforts to refining this set of magical artifacts.
...
Soon after.
As the sun sets in the west.
Lin Li then returned to White Pine Mountain.
To his surprise, two young figures, a man and a woman, had been waiting for a long time in front of the cave in the mountains. They were both dressed in white robes and knelt down outside the cave.
The two men, one named Zhan Yangjiang and the other Zhan Yangwu, were both only eleven years old and possessed the aptitude of three spiritual roots.
These were two young members of the Zhan family who, in order to balance his relationship with the Cui family of Beast Taming, were placed in the Green Ape Mountain as his nominal disciples.
"What brings you two to this White Pine Mountain to find your master?"
Lin Lifei landed in front of the cave dwelling, looked at the two teenagers who had been kneeling in front of him for countless days, and spoke in a calm tone.
"Disciple greets Master!"
"Disciple greets Master!"
Upon hearing Lin Li's voice, Zhan Yangjiang and his companion, who had been feeling drowsy, immediately perked up and hurriedly bowed respectfully.
"Disciple...disciple wishes to follow Master and cultivate on this White Pine Mountain. I humbly request Master's permission!"
Zhan Yangjiang hesitated for a moment before mustering his courage to speak.
After all, in their view, the spiritual energy of the Three Yang Spring was far less abundant than that of the White Pine Mountain. Cultivating in this second-tier spiritual vein was more efficient than cultivating in the Three Yang Spring spiritual land, by several times.
This will save them a lot of training time in the future.
"This is not difficult."
"There are a few vacant cultivation dwellings at the foot of this mountain. Each of you should choose one and cultivate here!"
"Also, here are five array tokens for you. When you go back, remember to call those three from the Cui family. You can all cultivate here together."
Lin Li had promised Cui Yunshan that he would support the three young men of the Cui family to cultivate until they reached the Qi Refining Perfection stage. Although there was no time limit, being able to support them even a little would be considered as not breaking his promise in this life.
