Raising Silkworms and Refining Gu from Mount Hundred Thousand

Chapter 182 Middle Stage of Human Realm! Distracted thoughts

Zhou Qing came to Han Wending's camp and got information about fire-attributed spiritual objects.

Deep in Tianzhu Mountain, there is a valley called Shenhuo Valley.

It is said to be the relics left behind after a great master of the Yuan Shen realm fought with the enemy thousands of years ago and used fire-attribute magical powers.

It is hot all year round in the valley, and almost no grass grows. However, there are very few strange beasts and spiritual creatures that have adapted to the environment in the valley.

They were affected by the magical power of fire attribute, and almost all of them were transformed.

Moreover, the fire-attributed magical power left by the great Yuanshen realm still remains in the Divine Fire Valley. Ordinary warriors cannot even get close to the valley.

Even bone refining realm martial artists have to enter the valley on July 15th every year when the yin energy is at its heaviest, in order to go deep into it.

As for the great martial arts masters in the blood-changing realm, unless they practice fire-attribute skills, they will be suppressed by the power of fire-attribute supernatural powers when entering the valley, and their strength will be greatly reduced.

A month ago, it was said that a second-level Gu Master from the Beast Soul Clan among the Wuxi Barbarians broke into the Divine Fire Valley in order to refine Gu. As a result, he discovered a psychic Sky Fire Leopard in the valley.

After a great battle, although the Beast Soul Clan Gu Master destroyed the Sky Fire Leopard's body, he was also seriously injured, so he did not collect the Sky Fire Leopard's inner elixir, but was allowed to escape.

Afterwards, the barbarians sent other Gu masters into the valley to search, but because they could not withstand the terrifying heat in the Divine Fire Valley, they were unable to go deep into the valley and did not find the Sky Fire Leopard's psychic inner elixir.

Now that the nearby forces are aware of this situation, they are all gathering towards the Divine Fire Valley.

Everyone is waiting to enter the Valley of Divine Fire on July 15th, when the yin energy is at its heaviest.

In previous years, on July 15th, although there were warriors entering the Divine Fire Valley, most of them were warriors practicing fire-attribute internal skills.

These people mainly try their luck, hunting fire-attributed beasts in the periphery, searching for fire-attributed spiritual objects, or simply collecting the unique fire crystals in the Divine Fire Valley.

Fire crystals can continuously and stably release powerful heat, and can assist in forging high-quality weapons and refining high-quality elixirs.

Generally, powerful weapon shops and powerful alchemists will purchase fire crystals all year round.

For these big forces, the most indispensable thing is probably money. Their tribesmen control various industries in nearby towns with Nanli County as the center, and they receive a steady stream of money every day.

Resources that can be bought with money are nothing.

As for what money can't buy, we can still rely on force to solve it.

"There is still half a month left before July 15th. I am currently involved in military affairs and cannot leave the camp easily, so I invited Su Wuhen, the eldest son of the Su family, to accompany you." Han Wending came to the camp. The sand table in the middle of the camp marked the location of the Divine Fire Valley to Zhou Qing.

"Thank you, Han Shibo." Zhou Qing bowed his hands and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

It seems that as Han Qingqing said, the Han family is not monolithic.

Otherwise, Han Wending would not ask the eldest son of the Su family to escort them.

Han Wending is not the only great martial artist in the blood exchange realm in the Han family.

According to Han Qingqing, Han Wending married into the Han family in his early years, and his surname was not Han originally.

With his outstanding talent and ability, Han Wending was valued and cultivated by the old man of the Han family. In less than twenty years, he made rapid progress and became a top martial artist in the Seventh Blood Exchange Realm.

The old man of the Han family appointed Han Wending to be the head of the Han family. Others did not dare to have any objections at first. However, after the death of the old man and Han Qingqing's mother, the eldest and second eldest brothers of the Han family wanted to regain power.

The eldest son of the Han family is a great martial artist with five blood transfusions, and the second master is at the peak of six blood transfusions. He is only one step away from catching up with Han Wending in cultivation.

Although the Han family is united when facing outsiders, they are always competing internally.

The reason is profit.

The position of the head of the family represents power and control of most of the resources of the Han family.

And power and resources can bring about improvement in strength, and then gain more. This is a virtuous circle.

When resources are limited, you need to fight!

Either fight externally or fight internally.

Or, both.

Just like today's Five Poison Sect, the biggest dispute is that the ancestor is about to pass away. Whoever can accept the ancestor's teachings will be able to save decades of hard work. In the future, it is even possible to get a glimpse of the Three Flowers Gathering. Realm, half a foot into the realm of immortality.

Compared with these huge benefits, family affection, friendship, and love are nothing to mention for many people.

Since Han Wending officially hired Zhou Qing to become the alchemist of the Han family, and the Han family could not support two rising alchemists at the same time, the alchemist supported by the second family was persuaded to quit by Han Wending.

As for the alchemist supported by the big house, he is old and now semi-retired. However, the Han family thought that he had worked diligently to refine alchemy for the family for many years, so they decided to support him until his old age.

At first, the second brother of the Han family was firmly opposed to dissuading the alchemist they supported, because without the alchemist, there would be a lack of many channels for obtaining resources, which harmed the core interests of the second brother.

However, after seeing Zhou Qing's level of alchemy and learning that he was willing to split it 50-50 with the Han family, both the first and second bedrooms could receive the elixirs on time. The second bedroom was also speechless and could only listen to Han Wending. Order.

In the past two and a half months, even though Zhou Qing was in the Shenwei Camp, the eldest and second eldest chambers of the Han family were able to send people to secretly contact him, and offered him many favorable conditions, hoping to let him change the family and become the eldest or second chamber. Second room effect.

However, Zhou Qing rejected them all without hesitation and revealed the matter to Han Wending.

After all, the strongest member of the Han family is Han Wending, and he must follow the most powerful one.

Although Zhou Qing just wanted to practice peacefully and live a peaceful life, when he set foot in Nanli County, he had already entered a huge Gu breeding ground.

No matter how large the environment is, high-end resources are limited.

As long as you reach a certain level, even if you don't fight, you will be regarded as a competitor by others.

This is inevitable.

What Zhou Qing is fighting for now is only the resources of the Blood Exchange Realm. When he starts to fight for the resources to break through the Three Flowers Gathering Realm, the conflict will probably escalate to a life and death battle.

He had already prepared for this.

"You should rest more in the camp for the next half month. You don't have to make elixirs for the Han family for the time being." Han Wending's words brought Zhou Qing out of his trance.

"Yes, thank you Han Shibo." Zhou Qing bowed respectfully and exited the camp.

According to the contract, he has to refine elixirs for the Han family four times a month, which is a very generous condition.

Of course, Zhou Qing is busy improving his alchemy skills. In the past two and a half months, he has actually been refining alchemy every other day.

The reason for taking one day apart was to restore his true energy and mental strength, otherwise he might have been refining pills continuously.

Even with the bonuses of Jade Wat and profession, Zhou Qing did not relax at all. He knew that he would not be inferior to anyone in terms of hard work.

After leaving the camp, Zhou Qing returned to his tent.

Since he doesn't have to refine elixirs for the Han family in the next half month, he plans to use it to refine Yuanhun Golden Liquid.

After all, the art of alchemy has just reached a state of perfection.

For the current Zhou Qing, the three days had almost no feeling, and they passed by in the process of refining the elixir.

呲呲呲.

In a jade-white elixir furnace, a large amount of smoke rose, and bursts of cold air hit the face.

The blue-white blood inside gradually shrank and turned into blood beads. As Zhou Qing continued to add some powdered medicinal materials and refined them with true essence, after a while, waves of strange fragrance rose from the alchemy furnace.

"It's done?!" Zhou Qing opened the lid of the alchemy furnace and looked at the white-gold liquid inside, his pupils suddenly dilated.

He didn't expect that he would refine the Soul Gold Liquid in just four attempts.

You know, this time he refined the Soul Gold Liquid and used the undiluted Ice Soul Spider Essence and Blood.

"What a condensed cold air!" Zhou Qing put his hand into the alchemy furnace, and felt that the cold air inside the alchemy furnace almost froze his hand.

Since he refined the Ice Demon Gu, his resistance to cold air has been greatly enhanced, and he hasn't felt such a strong feeling in a long time.

Zhou Qing was not in a hurry to refine the Yuan Soul Golden Liquid, but released the Ice Evil Gu from the Yuan Aperture.

"Buzz buzz!"

As soon as the Ice Fiend Gu Fang appeared, he excitedly fell into the alchemy furnace and plunged into the Yuanhun Golden Liquid to swim.

Kaka!

While the Ice Demon Gu was swimming, the entire body was quickly frozen into an ice sculpture, and then became motionless.

"With my current ability, can I really refine it?" Zhou Qing frowned slightly.

According to Xuanzhu, if he refines the Soul Gold Liquid made from the diluted Ice Soul Xuan Spider essence and blood, it will cause the blood to be impure. Not only will he not be able to awaken the Ice Soul Xuan Spider's bloodline magical power, but it will also cause future problems. Cultivation brings hidden dangers.

More importantly, the Ice Spirit Tribe may not recognize his identity. After all, he is a foreign warrior. Unless the talent is so high that the Ice Spirit Tribe is reluctant to part with it, the Ice Spirit Tribe will not easily allow him to "acknowledge his ancestors and return to the clan."

However, the cold energy of this Yuanhun Golden Liquid was so strong that even the second-level mid-level Ice Evil Gu was frozen.

Although the Ice Demon Gu did not cause any damage, Zhou Qing's physical strength was definitely not as strong as the Ice Demon Gu.

"It seems that we have to find a way. I wonder if the extremely hot power of the Divine Fire Valley can weaken the coldness in the Yuanhun Gold Liquid." Zhou Qing said thoughtfully.

What he wants is the pure power of the Ice Soul Black Spider bloodline in the Yuanhun Golden Liquid. He doesn’t need the cold inside, but the current situation is that he can’t get rid of the cold if he wants to. He can only place his hope on The Valley of Divine Fire.

Otherwise, Zhou Qing might have to wait until he breaks through the blood-exchange realm and his energy, blood, and true essence are greatly strengthened before he can try to refine the soul gold liquid.

While Zhou Qing was thinking about it, the Ice Evil Gu slowly absorbed the cold air of the ice soul in the Yuanhun Golden Liquid, and the ice sculpture it transformed gradually shrank in size.

Seeing this, Zhou Qing took the Ice Evil Gu back into the Yuan Aperture.

"One Yuan Qiao supports several Gu insects, which is quite a burden."

After the Ice Demon Gu returned to Yuan Qiao, Zhou Qing couldn't help but shudder.

To refine the soul gold liquid with the Ice Demon Gu, he also has to consume real energy.

In addition, to maintain the survival of the Corpse Insect Gu King, Er Qing, and Chi Yan, in addition to providing them with food, a small amount of real energy must be consumed. As for the real energy consumed in battle, it is difficult to estimate.

Zhou Qing has not seen many Gu Masters so far, but these Gu Masters basically only cultivate one or two Gu Insects. It is rare to have people like him who have them by sea, land and air.

If he can successfully hatch the red flame this time and obtain the second-level skyfire centipede, Zhou Qing will then go into seclusion with all his strength to attack the blood exchange realm.

Although breaking through the blood exchange realm, the true energy stored in the Yuan Aperture will not increase, but the Dantian will be expanded, and more true energy can be stored by then, which is equivalent to increasing the endurance of the Gu insect in disguise.

This is the benefit of having multiple careers.

After Zhou Qing took the Ice Demon Gu back into the Yuan Aperture, he continued to refine the Yuan Soul Gold Liquid.

呲呲呲.

A moment later, the second furnace of Yuanhun Gold Liquid was also successfully refined.

Suddenly, Zhou Qing's body trembled, and he suddenly felt a trance in front of his eyes. There seemed to be some kind of noisy sound coming from his ears, which seemed to come from a far away place.

"Your soul realm has been broken through!" Xuan Spider's voice suddenly sounded from the bottom of Zhou Qing's heart.

"You are less than nineteen years old and in the middle stage of the human realm. Your talent has already surpassed that of Master Xuan Spider back then!"

The next moment, a line of text appeared in Zhou Qing's sight.
