When Yi Tian returned to the Heishui River, it was already dark. On the way back, if he hadn't met Gao Shou and the others who fought over the wind roc, Yi Tian wouldn't have known that there was such a drama in the alchemist exchange meeting in Star City.
He had already explained everything, and now he just had to wait for the spirit stones. This was not only because he was optimistic about Liu Piaopao, but also because he was confident in his alchemy furnace. As long as Liu Piaopao's alchemy level was not too bad, the top three should not be too surprising. As for the first place, forget about it.
Zhu Chen of the Qihuang Sect was the biggest obstacle in front of Liu Piaopao. How could the pill recipe of the Bottleneck-breaking Pill from the Old Ancestor of the Qihuang Sect be given to an outsider? It was estimated that there would be another fierce competition.
This time, it should not be a problem to make a two-sided bet. Nangong Qianyun was also not easy to deal with. Her alchemy skills were obviously above Wu Xing's. He couldn't help but sweat for Wu Xing. This time, it would be very difficult for Wu Xing to stand out.
It was useless to think too much. He still had a lot of things to do. First of all, he needed to hurry up with the refining of the array discs. The remaining forty or so needed to be refined overtime. Second was his cultivation. Although he had touched the threshold of the middle stage of Foundation Establishment after the Thousand Needles Stone Forest incident, he was still a step away. If there were no accidents, after refining, he would be able to cross the threshold after cultivating for half a year.
Now he still had some monkey wine in his hand. This thing was better than medicinal pills and had fewer side effects. He just didn't know if it would be different after he reached Foundation Establishment. He patted his head and almost forgot about the monkey wine. He had already prepared the materials and was just waiting for the wine to be cooked. But when brewing wine, he couldn't keep it in the storage bracelet all the time. He had to bury it underground and find a place with abundant Spiritual Qi.
Looking around, Yi Tian smiled foolishly. Was there a need to look for a place with abundant Spirit Qi? Wasn't every place where the formation plates were set up? Without further ado, Yi Tian took out the array discs that he had refined and found a few mountain peaks on the bank of the Black Water River. After setting up the array discs, he started to brew wine.
Six years later, in the Guardian Residence of Green Laurel Lane, Yi Tian sat with his legs crossed. Opposite him was the new Guardian, Shen Peiqi. The two of them chatted and laughed. There were two wine cups and a pot of monkey wine in front of them. The two of them chatted and laughed as they talked about the situation of the Scarlet Sun Sect in the past few years. Basically, Shen Peiqi was the one talking while Yi Tian was the one listening.
The Spirit Children who entered Chiyang School with Yi Tian had already succeeded in Foundation Establishment after going through the Secret Realm Trial eight or nine years ago. Among them, the more famous ones were Xu Haoxian and Ye Ziyan. It was said that they were the new generation of Chiyang Golden Boy and Jade Girl. However, according to Ye Ziyan, she didn't like this title. She said that she was afraid of being misunderstood by others if she was always placed with Xu Haoxian. She even deliberately alienated him.
Thinking back to the time when Xu Haoxian was specially taken care of in the forest, Yi Tian reckoned that Xu Haoxian had already cast a shadow in the hearts of these young Spirit Children. It was only natural that Xu Haoxian was not treated well.
Then there was the competition of alchemy skills during the alchemy competition in the Myriad Star City. As the representative of the Scarlet Sun Sect, Wu Xing had won the fifth place. After returning to the sect, he directly removed the two words "after" and became a Successor Disciple of the Alchemy Hall. Ning Ning got the seventh place, and after returning, she also became the second Successor Disciple of the Alchemy Hall.
However, after this matter, Ning Ning had always been unconvinced and kept arguing that she wanted to compete with Wu Xing again. The Head of the Alchemy Hall, Deng Qingxiang, said that twenty years later, when the two of them reached the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, they would compete again to determine the rankings.
Hearing this, Yi Tian was quite interested and casually asked, "Isn't there only one Successor Disciple? Why is there a second Successor Disciple in the Alchemy Hall?"
Shen Peiqi also smiled bitterly, "Who asked that Ning Ning to have a strong background? Your master, Ning Qingyuan, personally went to plead with Deng Qingxiang of the Alchemy Hall, which is why there is a second Successor Disciple. The key is that Sect Leader Yang Yanzi actually agreed, saying that the development of the sect cannot be separated from the Alchemy Hall, and even promised to give the two of them the same treatment. However, that Ning Ning has been asking about you, saying that you are unfair and that you have sold all the good things to other sects. When you go back, she will settle the account with you sooner or later. "After saying this, she looked at Yi Tian with a deep meaning.
Cold sweat appeared on his head. Yi Tian knew that the matter of the Nine Heavens Restaurant could not be concealed. Ning Ning definitely knew about it, so he had to avoid her when he went back this time. Seeing that there was a bit of an awkward silence, Yi Tian hurriedly urged Shen Peiqi to ask who the first place of the alchemist convention in Fanxing City was. However, Shen Peiqi said that she did not know and told Yi Tian to find out himself when he had time.
Then, Shen Peiqi talked about some interesting things in the sect, "After that Wu Xing obtained the Successor Disciple of the Alchemy Hall, his two good friends, Tang Lin and Gao Shou, actually booked the second floor of the Rain-Admiring Pavilion to celebrate for him. I heard that several of your good friends went to participate, even that brat Qu Yifeng was not left out. At that time, Ning Ning came uninvited and took Huo Jiawei to the second floor. Then, the two of them actually played with the tea leaves on the second floor of the Rain-Admiring Pavilion. They used up three months of the Rain-Admiring Pavilion's stock. "
Yi Tian was excited to hear this. This Ning Ning took the opportunity to vent her anger, and Huo Jiawei was an accomplice. But how did Wu Xing pay the bill in the end? Seeing Shen Peiqi keep him in suspense, his heart itched. He quickly said, "Hurry up and continue."
Unexpectedly, Shen Peiqi laughed foolishly and even cupped her hands to Yi Tian to thank him. Then she said, "Wu Xing is a miser. He didn't pay the bill with spirit stones, but his two friends are amazing. When he paid the bill, it was 8,900 spirit stones, but they directly gave him 10,000 spirit stones without asking for change. The owner of the Rain-Admiring Pavilion was afraid that something would happen, so before he went out, he gave a packet of tea leaves to every guest on the second floor. That's all the change. "After she finished speaking, she even took a sip of her wine cup and showed an intoxicated look.
Seeing this, Yi Tian really had the urge to go up and beat him up. This guy always plays hard to get at key points. It seems that he was also one of the guests that day, so he urged him to make a long story short.
After putting away her lazy look, Shen Peiqi also cupped her hands to Yi Tian and said, "First of all, I would like to thank Junior Brother Yi for his generosity."
After hearing this, Yi Tian felt more sweat on his head. Then he heard Shen Peiqi continue, "Gao Shou also announced that this celebration banquet was funded by you, Yi Tian, and the purpose was to let everyone have a good time. He also said that the spirit stones you instructed him to use directly. At that time, everyone present gave a thumbs up and praised Junior Brother Yi for his generosity. For this, Ning Ning even gave an extra packet of tea leaves. "
Although Yi Tian's face was eighteen years old, he was still a man who was almost forty years old. He still had this bit of shrewdness. Resisting the urge to fly into a rage, Yi Tian only said, "As long as everyone has fun."
Then he prepared to return to the sect, but before he got up, he heard Shen Peiqi say, "Junior Brother Yi, you should hide outside for a year or two first. It won't be too late to go back when Ning Ning enters seclusion."
"I'm already in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. Why would I be afraid of a little girl?" Yi Tian replied angrily.
In the past few years, Yi Tian had been working hard. He brewed good wine on the cliff of the Black Water River and buried it under the formation plate. Along the way, Yi Tian did not idle. Other than setting up the formation, he also meditated and cultivated.
His cultivation level was already in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment five years ago. In the past few years, not only did he cultivate the Mystic Yang True Fire and Spiritual Wood Immersion Technique, he also cultivated the Ming King Dao's arts. He also cultivated a Ming King Dao's art called 'Cloud Flipping Hand'.
However, because it was driven by the wood element, it was not white but green. Its power was actually not bad. It was more than twice as strong as the one Zhong Yue used in the past. This skill still depended on the person using it. The Ming King Dao's skill was also very strong, but the person who cultivated it was too weak.
The Ming Yang Soul Refining Art that he found from He Shiwo was also very fast. Compared to the East Sea City's Divine Sense Clone that mainly cultivated the three parts of the divine sense, the Ming Yang Soul Refining Art mainly cultivated the attack of the divine sense. Except for the last move, the Ming Yang God Illusory Stab, Yi Tian had almost mastered the rest. If he did not divide his divine sense into three parts, he would have already mastered it.
Now, Yi Tian's divine sense was far more condensed than cultivators of the same level. Its range was also much larger than that of a Foundation Establishment cultivator. It was almost close to that of an early stage Jin Dan cultivator. Moreover, as his cultivation level increased, there was still room for improvement.
On the other hand, the Asura Transformation did not have much progress in the dharma idol behind it. It was just that the dharma idol was slightly more condensed. Other than that, there were no other changes.
After listening to Shen Peiqi's words, Yi Tian could not wait to go back and settle the score with Gao Shou and Tang Lin. They dared to use his share of spirit stones to 'sprinkle gold cups', oh no, to sprinkle tea leaves. In these few years, he had disappeared without a trace, but there were still people who dared to mess with him.
Yi Tian stood up and was about to leave when he suddenly heard Shen Peiqi say, "Actually, I have an invitation right now. Unfortunately, I'm tied up with sect missions and can't leave Green Laurel Lane for too long." Then she winked at Yi Tian and continued, "Good thing, I'll let you go in my place. The other party is a cultivator from Xuan Ling Sect and Iron Sword Gate. They want a formation master to help them explore a cave."
Yi Tian shrugged and said, "Don't let it be that Thousand Needles Forest again. I don't want to go there again."
"Don't worry, this time it's in the depths of the Cloud Piercing Ridge. It's a place called Tiger Jump Cliff. The people going this time are all cultivators from the three sects. It'll be fine."
Yi Tian teased, "Last time, it wasn't Xuan Ling Sect cultivators. Didn't something happen to them?"
This time, Shen Peiqi's face turned red and she pretended to be angry. "Last time, we deliberately set a long line to catch a big fish. This time, it's up to you whether you want to go or not. They gave you a reward of 1800 spirit stones. It's fine if you don't want to earn it." Then she took out a storage pouch and placed it on the table.
Yi Tian was happy that such a good thing had happened. In the past few years, he had used up his spirit stones like running water. Every time he set up a spirit gathering formation, he would use up a batch. He only had a dozen mid-grade spirit stones left that could be used in emergencies. The 1800 spirit stones were really timely. Although it was only a small amount, it was better than nothing.
Yi Tian really did not want to face Ning Ning so soon. It would be troublesome if he was entangled with her. Going out to relax was not a bad idea. If he had the chance, he could find someone to spar with. It would be best if he could find someone with some strength.
Thinking about that, Yi Tian was eager to give it a try. He took the storage pouch and said, "I'll accept this mission." Just as he was about to leave, he found that there were only 1500 spirit stones inside. He turned around and asked Shen Peiqi, "Why is the number wrong?"
However, Shen Peiqi replied, "According to the rules, the middleman takes 20% of the commission. I've given you a round number." Then she turned around and began to do her own things. She even said, "Good luck, I have high hopes for you."
