A few days later, Lingxiao Mountain was in a quiet room in a courtyard halfway up the mountain.

Ling Pengyun is sitting here, refining Spirit Gathering Pill in his belly.

Since Ling Yunhong returned to the clan a month ago, he took the initiative to give cave abode the cave abode with Second Rank Low Grade Spirit Gathering Formation on the top of the mountain to Ling Yunhong, and returned to practice in his courtyard halfway up the mountain.

After all, the Cultivation Abode on the top of the mountain originally belonged to Ling Yunhong.

After Ling Pengyun had refined all the Spirit Gathering Pill medicine in his belly, he opened his eyes, took out two rice seeds from Storage Bag, cast Object Manipulation Technique, and suspended them in the air in front of him.

One of these two rice seeds is the Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice seed improved by Ling Pengyun in the early years.

The other seed is an ordinary rice seed.

As soon as the two seeds were taken out, Ling Pengyun used Spirit Plant Secret Method to condense two Law Seals containing pure Wood Spiritual Energy, and penetrated the two seeds respectively.

Then, relying on the spiritual power Law Seals that entered the Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice seed, he extracted a trace of Yi Wood Essence from it and sent it into the mortal rice seed to temper the mortal Spirit Rice seed.

But within half a breath, the Spirit Rice seeds couldn't bear the tempering of Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice Yi Wood Essence. The seeds began to swell, and small cracks appeared on the surface.

Seeing this, Ling Pengyun frowned and quickly called out Natal Spirit Plant Thorn Vine who was living in Dantian, letting the vines pass a mouthful of gentle Yi Wood Essence into the Nafan rice seed, acting as Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice Yi Wood Essence is a blending agent for tempering rice seeds.

With the help of Thorn Vine, the situation of that Fandao seed gradually improved.

This mortal rice seed also gradually changed under the tempering of Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice seed Yi Wood Essence.

After about a hundred breaths, the mortal Spirit Rice seed successfully completed the tempering of the Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice seed Yi Wood Essence. It changed from the original light yellow to light cyan, which is similar to the color of the Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice seed.

Ling Pengyun looked happy when he saw this.

He waved the successfully improved Fan Dao seed in his hand, looked at it carefully, and planned.

"I improved the rice seeds hundreds of times a month, and finally succeeded once."

"Although this mortal rice seed has only been tempered by the Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice seed Yi Wood Essence, no Spiritual Qi was born in the body, and it will not be of any benefit to the monks."

"But due to the tempering effect of Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice Yi Wood Essence, the vitality in this mortal rice is nearly twice as strong as that of ordinary mortal rice. This is a good thing."

"Even if the yield of this rice has not increased, its strong vitality means that this rice can grow in even harsher environments."

"Now we just have to wait for the method to stably improve this Spirit Rice seed to be experimentally grown on an acre of this rice on a large scale and observe the yield of this rice."

"The seeds of this ordinary rice are green, and it is the same autumn now as when Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice was created. This ordinary rice is named Azure Autumn Mortal Rice."

He didn't waste too much time when his thoughts came back, and he carefully recalled the special feeling when he improved this Azure Autumn Mortal Rice.

Based on this feeling and the experience of improving Spirit Rice, in just half a day, Ling Pengyun will be able to create the method of stably improving Azure Autumn Mortal Rice.

Once the method was completed, he relied on this method to use a large number of Autumn Cloud Spirit Rice seeds and ordinary rice seeds to improve the amount that could plant an acre of wasteland.

Later, he opened up an acre of wasteland in his courtyard and directly planted that acre of Azure Autumn Mortal Rice in it.

Another wave of spiritual rain watered this acre of green autumn rice, nourishing the acre of green autumn rice seeds buried deep in the soil to germinate faster.

After finishing this matter, he stopped busy, returned to the quiet room, and continued to practice taking Spirit Gathering Pill.

Although he still has twenty-three Dark Ice Spirit Waters and two hundred-year-old Evergreen Spirit Waters given to him by Ling Yunhong a month ago.

But Ling Pengyun has been reluctant to use it, wanting to save it for when it reaches the bottleneck. In daily practice, I take the second-class Second Rank Low Grade Spirit Gathering Pill.

After all, what is really rare to break through the realm is the bottleneck, and what is rare in the middle of cultivation is the long-term savings Spiritual Qi.

Spiritual Qi Accumulation is easy, but it is extremely difficult to break through the bottleneck.

Furthermore, although there are a large number of these spiritual waters, the twenty-three Dark Ice Spirit Water that account for the majority are not of a century-old age after all. The total amount of Spiritual Qi they contain is equivalent to the Spiritual Qi contained in six or seven hundred-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water.

Added to the two 100-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water, it is only equivalent to eight or nine 100-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water.

This amount of century-old Evergreen Spirit Water cannot support Ling Pengyun to accumulate enough Spiritual Qi in a short period of time to break through to Foundation Establishment Third Layer.

Another month.

West Yang Market Town, Ling Clan Alchemy Hall backyard, a quiet room.

Since Demon Beast Uprising ended three months ago, Ling Pengxing, who has been meditating here, opened his eyes, and a look of helplessness appeared on his face.

"Three hundred-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water contains too little pure spiritual power. I estimate that at least three more hundred-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water will be needed to reach Peak Foundation Establishment Second Layer, reach Foundation Establishment Third Layer bottleneck, and to break through Foundation Establishment Third Layer, it will take three or four hundred-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water."

"It's just that now Demon Beast Uprising has ended for two or three months, and West Yang Prefecture has also ended. Non-Hundred Spirits Sect disciples like me can also exchange Hundred Spirits Sect by turning in Demon Beast's body. Contribution Points, I can't rely on Contribution Points to exchange for 100-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water."

Thinking of this, Ling Pengxing suddenly remembered that before going into seclusion, he had heard from other fellow practitioners that in a month's time, Evergreen Spirit Water might be held in a grand auction held only once in a century in the Hundred Spirits Sect realm.

One month later, West Yang Grand Auction will appear on Evergreen Spirit Water. Although it is a good thing, there are not many Spirit Stone on Ling Pengxing.

Moreover, he has also participated in several auctions in other markets, and he knows that as long as the price of spiritual objects reaches the auction, the price will be a few points higher than usual.

"With the Spirit Stone I have now, I'm afraid I can't even afford a bottle of 100-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water."

"During Demon Beast Uprising, work together with Third Grandfather to kill Foundation Establishment Demon Beast, relying on those Foundation Establishment My share of Spirit Gathering Pill refined from the inner elixir of Demon Beast was also sold to the Hundred Spirits Sect, exchanged for Contribution Points, and purchased the Second Rank Low Grade defense Law Artifact, and the five hundred-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water."

"Lineage's financial situation is not good, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to spend a sum of Spirit Stone to help me buy a batch of 100-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water, and break through to Foundation Establishment Third Layer."

"Under such circumstances, if I want to take advantage of the big auction of West Yang Market Town in a month and buy the century-old Evergreen Spirit Water, I can only go deep into the Serpent Dragon Lake realm to kill Foundation Establishment Demon Beast and earn Spirit Stone."

"If I miss this opportunity, my chances of obtaining the centenary Evergreen Spirit Water in the future will be slim."

After all, the 100-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water is comparable to the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Water of the same year. It is very powerful. Even within the Hundred Spirits Sect, it is in great demand and rarely leaks out.

If Demon Beast Uprising and Hundred Spirits Sect had not been used to encourage the monks stationed at West Yang Market Town, the hundred-year-old Evergreen Spirit Water would not have been released.

As for the leakage of Evergreen Spirit Water in this auction, it is also very simple and attracts popularity.

Ling Pengxing was thinking a lot. When he came to his senses, he immediately made up his mind.

He did not want to return to Clan Mountain and slowly rely on Clan Mountain Spiritual Qi and the six Spirit Gathering Pill distributed every year by Lineage as offerings.

The speed of cultivation in this way is really too slow.

Ling Pengxing stood up and left the quiet room, found Ling Clan Fourth Elder Ling Yunfu who managed Lingxiao Alchemy Hall, and planned to go deep into the Serpent Dragon Lake realm to kill Foundation Establishment Tell him about Demon Beast pretending to take Spirit Stone.

Ling Yunfu After hearing this, he immediately refused and persuaded carefully.

"Peng Xing, not long after the end of Demon Beast Uprising, according to West Yang Market Town and many Rogue Cultivator, there are still a large number of Foundation Establishment Demon Beast and a huge group of Demon Beast in the outer areas of Serpent Dragon Lake."

"At this time, the risk factor of going deep into the Serpent Dragon Lake territory is extremely high. Maybe when you are hunting one Foundation Establishment Demon Beast, you will attract another Foundation Establishment Demon Beast, or you may be besieged by the Demon Beast group."

"This situation is extremely dangerous. Why don't you wait for some time and kill Foundation Establishment Demon Beast while entering Serpent Dragon Lake."

Ling Pengxing heard this, his expression condensed and he said firmly. "Tenth Grandfather, I understand this truth, but I urgently need a large quantity of Spirit Stone right now to prepare for the West Yang Market Town big auction in a month's time to purchase second-level spiritual objects for cultivation. This has already been planned for my future Dao Path."

"I also know the situation in the clan. If the clan lends me Spirit Stone, I can't do it."

"But once I miss the once-in-a-century auction held by the Hundred Spirits Sect, I think it will take at least five years to enter Foundation Establishment Third Layer."

"Five years is not much, but now I am only on the second level of Foundation Establishment. It takes so much time to complete the second level of Foundation Establishment, not to mention the middle and later stages of Foundation Establishment."

"If I follow the instructions and practice in peace, I may not be able to enter Foundation Establishment Completion in my life."

Seeing Ling Pengxing's firm attitude, Ling Yunfu had no choice but to say.

"Okay, I won't say more about you going deep into the Serpent Dragon Lake realm to kill Foundation Establishment Demon Beast. Do you have auxiliary elixirs like Second Rank Low Grade Spirit Returning Pill and Spring Return Pill on you?"

Ling Pengxing felt warm in his heart and said. "Before Demon Beast Uprising opened it, Third Grandfather gave me a lot of these auxiliary elixirs. Now I still have a lot of storage elixirs."

"That's good. Put safety first in everything and proceed with caution." Ling Yunfu said with a worried look on his face.

"Okay."

Ling Pengxing responded, no longer lingering, turned around and left Ling Clan Alchemy Hall, followed the avenue out of West Yang Market Town, blessed a second-order Law Technique Wind Control Technique in his body, turned into a Qing Feng and rushed north quickly.

There is a buffer zone between West Yang Market Town and the python territory. This buffer zone stretches for nearly a hundred miles. It is a deserted land. There is no Spirit Vein, and there is no Demon Beast living here.

Ling Pengxing, who had the blessing of Wind Control Technique, crossed a hundred miles in a short while and entered the realm of Serpent Dragon Lake.

This Serpent Dragon Lake boundary is indeed as Ling Yunfu said. Even at the outermost edge of Serpent Dragon Lake, there are quite a few Demon Beast.

However, these Demon Beast are all Qi Training Demon Beast, and most of them live in groups, with few Qi Training Stage Demon Beast walking alone.

This kind of situation is also normal. If you don't stick together in the cruel Demon Beast world, you will die tragically at the mouths of other Demon Beasts.

Killing Qi Training Stage Demon Beast is easy for Ling Pengxing.

Even if there are Demon Beast living in groups, as long as the number does not exceed a hundred, it is not difficult for him to kill them.

But after killing these Qi Training Demon Beast, it takes a lot of time to harvest the spiritual materials from those Qi Training Demon Beast. During this time, Ling Pengxing cannot guarantee whether the Blood Qi released by those Demon Beast will attract other surrounding Demon Beast, putting itself in deep danger.

After all, the bodies of Demon Beast are generally very large, and the Storage Bag usually cannot fit into one or two Demon Beasts.

The high-end Storage Bag is too expensive, and Ling Pengxing cannot afford it.

Considering this situation, Ling Pengxing did not attack these Qi Training Demon Beast. Instead, he restrained his aura, directly chose to ignore them, and sneaked deep into the Serpent Dragon Lake realm.

About a thousand miles deep into the Serpent Dragon Lake territory, Ling Pengxing stopped at a small secret Lin Zhong.

He stared at a mountain several dozen feet high, several miles away from the dense forest.

There is a strong Spiritual Qi in the high mountain. Even from a distance of several miles, Ling Pengxing can detect that there is Spiritual Qi in the high mountain.

"With this Spiritual Qi strength, I'm afraid the Spirit Veins in the mountains are of high grade. It is estimated that they are at least one First-Tier Superior-Grade Spirit Vein."

"On top of these Spirit Vein, there must be Demon Beast."

Ling Pengxing Feeling the rich Spiritual Qi of the mountain dew, he secretly made a guess.

Then, he quickly Hand Seals and blessed himself with a Aura Observation Technique.

With the blessing of Aura Observation Technique, his vision has been sublimated, and he can clearly see the scene within the tens of feet high mountain several miles away.

And because Aura Observation Technique is a Law Technique that can both increase eyesight and detect the aura of others, therefore, those Demon Beast hiding in hidden places in Lingshan are also observed one by one by Ling Pengxing.
