"This is Brother Lu from the Divine Firmament Palace. He's also our savior. Without Brother Lu, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to enter the Ancient Sword Sect today. Senior Brother Hu, don't underestimate Big Brother Lu just because his cultivation isn't high. His battle prowess isn't the slightest bit inferior to Senior Brother Hu's. "When Luo Qing introduced Lu Xiaotian, there was a trace of indescribable expression in her eyes.
"I've already seen Brother Lu's methods. When I was still in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, I was far inferior to Brother Lu."
Hu Hongda laughed heartily. Although he believed that Lu Xiaotian's strength was most likely due to the fire-elemental Jinyuan Spiritual Sword, Luo Qing and Luo Qing were the two of them. However, for Luo Qing and Luo Yuan to think so highly of him at the same time, this was not something an ordinary person could do. Even Luo Qing's current strength was not much inferior to his. In the sect, his status and potential were far inferior to Luo Qing's, who had great hopes of advancing to the Jindan Stage. Naturally, he would not disregard Luo Yuan and Luo Qing. Moreover, it was indeed thanks to them that they were able to coexist peacefully just now.
"Why aren't Zong Sheng and Tao Feng with you?" Lu Xiaotian nodded to greet Hu Hongda, then looked at Luo Qing and asked.
"It's a long story. Along the way, we encountered a few waves of enemies. One of them was an alliance between the Southern Wasteland and the Sky Vault Immortal World. We couldn't defeat them, so we split up and fled. However, my luck was not bad. It didn't take long for us to meet Brother Lu and your group. However, Brother Lu, your disguise is rare. "Luo Qing looked at Lu Xiaotian, who was disguised as a round-faced Daoist priest, and pursed her lips into a smile.
Lu Xiaotian said, "I have no choice. I'm alone and have offended many people here. If I don't change my appearance, I'm afraid I won't be able to last until the time to meet you. Even with my current appearance, I was chased by the cultivators from the Evil Spirit Valley for a while. "
"These fellows from the Evil Spirit Valley rely on the fact that they are closer to the Southern Wasteland and don't think of themselves as people from the Plenilune Immortal World. They only think that they can escape to the Southern Wasteland at any time. I'm going to complain to the Sect when I go out this time, "Hu Hongda said angrily at the mention of the cultivators from the Evil Spirit Valley.
"Thankfully, we now have Senior Brother Hu, Little Sister, Brother Lu and Brother Lu. Our team's strength is unprecedentedly strong. Those behind us are simply no match for us. If we encounter any cultivators from Evil Spirit Valley again, we'll just have to kill them all." Luo Yuan spat out.
It had to be said that the reputation of the Ancient Sword Sect was indeed much better than that of the Divine Cloud Palace. After all, it was the number one sect in the Full Moon World of Immortals for tens of thousands of years. It was a sect with a long history. They had encountered several waves of people from other sects, but they were all safe and sound. After all, other than a vicious sect like the Evil Spirit Valley, very few sects would choose to fight with their weapons. Of course, this was also related to the fact that the cultivators of the Ancient Sword Sect were generally stronger than cultivators of the same level.
Lu Xiaotian mixed in with the team and had a rare period of peace.
"Brother Lu, have you already learned the Art of Puppetry?" Luo Qing asked Lu Xiaotian privately during a break.
"I have indeed learned the Art of Puppetry." Lu Xiaotian nodded.
"Brother Lu, you're making me feel distant. When my parents were still alive, they used to call me Qing 'er." Luo Qing's cheeks flushed red.
"I'd better call you Junior Sister. If I call you Qing 'er, not only will your Ancient Sword Sect's Flower Protector, even people like Tao Feng and Zong Sheng will not be kind to me." Lu Xiaotian touched his nose. He naturally understood Luo Qing's feelings. However, every time he thought of this, another beautiful figure would appear in his mind. Moreover, he wanted to achieve the Great Dao of Jin Dan as soon as possible. He really did not have much time to spend on such matters. He naturally did not have a trace of dislike towards Luo Qing. However, Luo Qing was not clear about his situation. Perhaps if she knew about him and Dongfang Yi, she would not be like this.
"What does it have to do with them? I have two puppets here that I don't need. Brother Lu, see if they are useful." When Tao Feng and the others were mentioned, Luo Qing snorted. She suddenly thought of something and said aloud. She remembered that Lu Xiaotian had used a centipede puppet before.
"Junior Sister, what kind of powerful puppet did you obtain in the Puppet Hall?" If Luo Qing did not take the initiative to mention it, he would be a little embarrassed. He had benefited greatly from the many precious spiritual items in the Immemorial Dao Scripture. In fact, he was also very interested in the puppets in the Puppet Hall. After all, the centipede puppet could no longer provide him with any help.
"There is a Red Gold Terracotta Warrior and a Stone Terracotta Warrior. I don't need them with my cultivation technique. I thought that Brother Lu had a puppet that you might need. As for how powerful these two puppets are, I have not used them before and am not too sure. "Luo Qing handed Lu Xiaotian a storage bag and said.
"Red Gold Terracotta Warrior and Stone Terracotta Warrior?" Lu Xiaotian opened the storage bag and saw that the Red Gold Terracotta Warrior was exactly the same as the Red Gold Terracotta Warrior that he had encountered and killed before. The Stone Terracotta Warrior was even taller. It was twenty feet tall and wore a thick green stone armor with simple patterns. Lu Xiaotian had already seen the strength of the Red Gold Terracotta Warrior. If he did not have the Fire Dragon Bow, even if he was a Rank Six Physique Cultivator and had the [Blazing Flame Sword], it would be difficult to kill it. As for the green Stone Terracotta Warrior, although he had not seen its power, it was placed in the Puppet Hall alongside the Red Gold Terracotta Warrior. It should not be too weak. It was just that driving this kind of puppet required at least a High Grade Spirit Stone. Middle Grade Spirit Stones could not be used recklessly. These two puppets could be said to be difficult to obtain even with money. Even if one had Spirit Stones, it might not be easy to buy them. In the Full Moon Immortal World, there were very few people who could refine them. Even if they were able to refine them, they would mostly keep them for their own use. Just like the Seven Stars Formation that Lu Xiaotian had encountered before, unless it was a critical moment, they would not easily take them out to exchange.
Luo Qing did not ask for anything from him and directly gave these two puppets to him. This friendship could not be said to be small. Even Lu Xiaotian, who had always had an indifferent temperament, could not help but feel somewhat moved in his heart. Ever since he entered the Immortal World, he had encountered mutual deception. The slightest bit of carelessness could lead to the risk of death. Until now, several decades had passed. Lu Xiaotian had always been walking on thin ice. Other than Dongfang Yi who had protected him without regard for the consequences last time, only Luo Qing had been sincere to him. If it were not for the fact that he already had intimate relations with Dongfang Yi and Luo Qing's outstanding talent, it would not have been difficult for him to set foot in Jin Dan. However, he was the opposite. The Great Dao of Jin Dan was illusory and ethereal. With his heart softening, Lu Xiaotian felt that being together with Luo Qing might be a good choice.
However, Lu Xiaotian was very clear that their talents were not on the same level. Luo Qing was a genius disciple of the Ancient Sword Sect. Even if she were to choose a Dao Companion, according to the sect's wishes, it would most likely be within the sect. Even if Luo Qing insisted and chose a cultivator with poor talent like him, he was afraid that he would not be able to pass the hurdle of the Ancient Sword Sect. If one day Luo Qing succeeded in forming her Gold Core, and he remained in the Foundation Establishment Stage, when his lifespan was exhausted, Luo Qing would have to live alone for the rest of her life. Today, Lu Xiaotian was no longer a simple-minded youth. He would habitually consider the gains and losses of everything he did. Out of his love for Luo Qing, choosing to be with Luo Qing at this time was also a selfish action.
Thinking of this, Lu Xiaotian suppressed the throbbing in his heart, took out three pill bottles, and handed them to Luo Qing. "You should be able to use the pills inside. If you don't need them, you can keep them for later use."
"Soul-Nourishing Pill, Heaven-Returning Pill, Ageless Pill!" After seeing the pills in the pill bottles, Luo Qing's face was filled with surprise. Although the cultivation technique she cultivated could slow down aging, her appearance would still slowly age. Although Yuan Hao had obtained the Ageless Fruit in the forbidden blood-colored area, it was much more difficult to obtain the Ageless Fruit than the Foundation Establishment Pill. It had been taken by the Ancient Sword Sect's Patriarch Jin Dan. As a person who had just reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, it was impossible for her to obtain it. The Ageless Pill was undoubtedly much more precious to Luo Qing than the two puppets that she could not use. What made Luo Qing even happier was that it had been given to her by Lu Xiaotian.
"If one day you obtain the Gold Condensing Fruit, you can bring it over. I can refine the Gold Condensing Jin Dan for you. I don't need to take your spirit stones." In Lu Xiaotian's eyes, the Ageless Pill was obviously not as good as the two puppets, so he added another sentence.
"Brother Lu, your alchemy skills have already reached such a level?" Luo Qing said with a shocked expression. The higher one's alchemy skills were, the harder it was to raise one's cultivation level. In Luo Qing's eyes, Lu Xiaotian had never revealed his true skills. Every time she thought she had reached Lu Xiaotian's limit, Lu Xiaotian would give an even more shocking performance when they encountered danger. Since Lu Xiaotian said he could refine the Gold Condensing Jin Dan, it was most likely true. Even if she wanted the alchemists in the Sect to refine the Gold Condensing Jin Dan for her, she would have to pay a certain price. Even an intermediate alchemist's status in the Sect would not be inferior to an ordinary Jin Dan cultivator. As for an advanced alchemist who could refine the Gold Condensing Jin Dan, their contribution to the Sect was far above that of most Jin Dan cultivators.
"In addition to cultivating these years, I have occasionally pondered the Dao of alchemy. I have refined it for others before. The success rate is not too low. "Lu Xiaotian nodded.
"That's good. When I have the Gold Condensing Fruit, I will definitely refine the elixir for you, Brother Lu."
Luo Qing was delighted. Even if they were from the same Sect, asking someone to refine the Gold Condensing Jin Dan would cost a lot. However, Lu Xiaotian could refine it for her for free. Naturally, he did not treat her as an outsider. When she reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment, with her own strength, it would not be difficult for her to obtain the Gold Condensing Jin Dan in the Sect Competition. However, Luo Yuan's strength was still a little lacking in the Ancient Sword Sect where experts were numerous.
"I hope Junior Sister Luo can keep the fact that I can refine high-level elixirs a secret for me. Except for you, even if others know that I can refine elixirs, they don't know what level I have reached. Once the news gets out, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave the Divine Firmament Palace. "Lu Xiaotian reminded her.
"Okay, this is a secret between me and Big Brother Lu. I will definitely keep my mouth shut about this matter to Big Brother Lu." Luo Qing smiled like a flower and said. She was very clear about the value of a Senior Alchemist to a sect. Even in the Ancient Sword Sect, it was the most important thing. After all, a person who could refine the Gold Condensing Jin Dan was a strategic resource in any Sect. Not to mention the Divine Firmament Palace, whose foundation was even more shallow. Once the people of the Divine Firmament Palace found out, it would be difficult for Lu Xiaotian, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, to step out of the Mountain Gate.
"By the way, I also got a Puppet Control Technique in the Puppet Palace. I don't know if it will be helpful to you, Brother Lu." Luo Qing patted her forehead and gave Lu Xiaotian a Jade Slip.
Lu Xiaotian took it without hesitation. He scanned it with his Divine Sense and found that it was similar to the Puppet Control Technique of the Thousand Bamboo School. It seemed to be of the same origin as the Puppet Control Technique of the Thousand Bamboo School.
The group circled around the Primordial Chaos Daoist Scripture a few more times and did not find any other valuable spiritual items. Luo Qing planned to leave as soon as possible and reach the Full Moon Immortal City or return to the Ancient Sword Sect to exchange that drop of metal-type core essence for a corresponding ice-type core essence. After refining the magic tool silver sword in her hand into a Core Essence magic tool, her strength would increase by another level. Ordinary cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage would not be her opponent at all.
Lu Xiaotian refined a cauldron of Blue Frost Nightshade Pills, which had excellent effects on the physical body and Divine Sense and were even quite effective in the early stage of Jin Dan. He gave two of them to Luo Qing and only kept one for himself. After all, although this kind of elixir was rare and was a healing panacea, it could only be used once by a cultivator. Once this kind of extremely effective elixir was spread out, it was very likely to fall into the hands of future opponents. There were many ways to earn Spirit Stones, but Lu Xiaotian did not want to use this method. After obtaining the aura of the newly refined Blue Frost Nightshade Pill, Luo Qing no longer had any doubts about Lu Xiaotian's alchemy skills.
The group in the middle met up with another group of cultivators from the Ancient Sword Sect. There were as many as six cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage and more than twenty cultivators in the middle and early Foundation Establishment stage. They were already an extremely tyrannical force. Lu Xiaotian was quite low-key in the crowd, but the cultivators of the Ancient Sword Sect knew about Lu Xiaotian's combat strength from Hu Hongda and did not dare to be the slightest bit slow. With such a force, unless it was a cultivator from the Jin Dan, very few people would dare to provoke them. Even if Lu Xiaotian brought along the Lü Brothers, no one felt anything wrong. Of course, these ignorant people did not know that Lu Xiaotian wanted to refine the elixir. They only thought that Lü Feng and Lü Hui were Lu Xiaotian's relatives. Only Lu Feng and Lu Hui were inexplicably excited. The two of them were not greedy. In addition to some scattered spiritual items that they had obtained along the way, they immediately left the Daoist Scripture and returned to the place where Lu Xiaotian had told them to wait for the Foundation Establishment Pill. As time passed, the two of them became anxious for a while. They either thought that Lu Xiaotian had died or that Lu Xiaotian had left them. After all, in the eyes of a Foundation Establishment expert, Qi Refining cultivators were not much different from ants. However, even if the two of them had Spirit Objects, it was not easy to refine the Foundation Establishment Elixir. Moreover, ever since the opening of the Dao Scripture, there was a sudden storm in this area. Cultivators from other sects were constantly rushing over. The two brothers were worried that if they rashly went out, they would meet other people with bad intentions. Therefore, they could only choose to continue waiting in place. They did not expect that Lu Xiaotian would actually keep his promise and appear. Following a large group of Foundation Establishment cultivators, the two of them naturally did not have to worry about their safety. In their hearts, they were extremely grateful to Lu Xiaotian.
Along the way, they had also wiped out several small groups of foreign cultivators. Lu Xiaotian could be considered to have witnessed the strength of the Ancient Sword Sect's disciples. Compared to ordinary sects and cultivators of the same level, the Ancient Sword Sect's disciples were indeed a bit stronger. Their famous reputation was not a lie.
