Chapter 85 The exchange meeting begins
Ever since he discovered the abnormality on Yang Qing, Luo Mu could still be the same as before, sipping tea leisurely. Now he is restless, and Luo Mu has never felt that dangerous aura even in Instructor Han, the first-class monk Foundation Establishment Realm.
Although it was only fleeting, when it appeared on a Qi Refining Stage fourth-level monk, Luo Mu was not surprised but rather it was a strange thing.
Luo Mu, who really couldn't figure it out, had no choice but to attribute these strange phenomena to the exercises practiced by Yang Qing. After all, there are countless weird and magical exercises in the world of cultivation, and there are many that can produce magic marks on the face.
Thinking of this, Luo Mu felt somewhat relieved. He couldn't help but guess what kind of technique Yang Qing was practicing. It was so powerful that Luo Mu felt dangerous in his heart.
Yang Qing only has the strength of the fourth level of Qi Refining Stage. Compared with Luo Mu, that is a whole four levels lower! And Luo Mu is not an ordinary monk, so the difference in strength between the two is even greater.
Under such circumstances, when Luo Mu discovered the magic pattern on Yang Qing's face with his eyes, he still fell deeply into it and became confused. This shows how terrifying the magic pattern is.
Until Luo Mu and Yang Qing separated, Luo Mu would still think of this matter from time to time. Although the two had a good relationship, Luo Mu still suppressed his curiosity and did not ask any more questions.
However, looking at the confused look on Yang Qing's face at that time, Luo Mu guessed that maybe even Yang Qing himself might not know about this matter. Luo Mu, who did not understand the situation, would certainly not mention it casually.
And Yang Qing suddenly sent Sound Transmission Talisman an invitation to Luo Mu today. It was actually for the grand exchange meeting that Jinxiu City was about to hold. It was to give Luo Mu a heads up in advance and tell Luo Mu this There will be a lot of good things at this exchange meeting, and then he asks Luo Mu if he has enough Spirit Stone. If not, he can lend some of it to Luo Mu to prevent Luo Mu from leaving any regrets at this exchange meeting. It can be said that he cares to the extreme.
As for the incident at the Grid Tower last time, if it hadn't been for Yang Qi's relationship, Luo Mu would have been in big trouble, and he might even have lost his life. At the same time, he offended the Bai family, Li family, and Lu family in Jinxiu City. The four major families offended the children of three families. No family in Jinxiu City except the Yang family dared to be so rampant.
It was precisely because of the relationship between Yang Qing that the three families did not dare to take action against Luo Mu. Otherwise, with Luo Mu's strength, he would have died countless times.
Luo Mu is not a heartless person, but he is sincerely grateful to Yang Qing, Luo Mu. But Luo Mu doesn't think so about the magic pattern. It was that simple, so I hid it and didn't mention it to Yang Qing. After Luo Mu read through the information and got a little clue, it wasn't too late to mention it to Yang Qing.
It was already late at night when Luo Mu returned to the store, but Luo Mu did not rest there. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the bedside and started running Poison Spirit Art. Get Poison Spirit Art has been around for a while. Although Luo Mu will practice this technique whenever he has time, until now, Luo Mu has only reached the second level.
One of the reasons why Poison Spirit Art is difficult to practice is that Luo Mu himself does not know much about the realm of Qi Refining Stage. For some obscure spells, Luo Mu simply cannot touch the threshold and cannot understand them thoroughly, so it will definitely not be able to improve quickly.
It was only under special circumstances that Luo Mu cultivated Poison Spirit Art to the second level. If an ordinary monk were to practice the method Poison Spirit Art for a year and a half, it would be impossible to reach the first level. Even if he was lucky enough to join the ranks of Poison Cultivator, he might lose his life due to some carelessness.
Those who play poison will kill themselves if they are careless. Therefore, there will be very few Poison Cultivators in the world of cultivation. Many people who have just entered the ranks of Poison Cultivators have died before they have experienced the difference between Poison Cultivators and ordinary monks. Especially in the Wanfa Sect realm, there are even fewer Poison Cultivators.
Of course, no Poison Cultivator can consume poison as crazily as Luo Mu to improve himself. An ordinary Poison Cultivator would have been poisoned long ago. Luo Mu is a special existence. Due to his physical constitution, Luo Mu takes a completely different path from other Poison Cultivator.
As for why his physique has become like this, Luo Mu still has no idea. Perhaps only after his strength reaches a certain level and his horizons and knowledge increase, maybe Luo Mu can solve the mystery of his physique.
But now, Luo Mu does not dwell on this issue, but is focused on how to quickly improve his cultivation.
It was under such circumstances that Luo Mu practiced Poison Spirit Art to the second level, which shows that this technique is extraordinary. However, the power of each level mentioned above by Poison Spirit Art makes Luo Mu very enthusiastic, otherwise he would not practice so diligently.
As long as Luo Mu breaks through one more layer, Luo Mu can let his Poison Spirit Power leak out, and then form a protective shield. Not only can it greatly enhance Luo Mu's defensive capabilities, but this shield also contains highly toxic substances. If the cultivation level is too low or there is no antidote holy medicine in hand, these poisonous poisons will be fatal.
However, judging from Luo Mu's current progress, it is unlikely that Poison Spirit Art will be upgraded to the third level until the Year of the Monkey. But Luo Mu is not in a hurry. He knows that cultivation cannot be done in a hurry. The more eager for quick success, the more likely it will be counterproductive.
Therefore, I just practice normally every day, and Luo Mu has never been interrupted, except for special circumstances where I cannot separate myself.
Time passed like this day by day, and after Luo Mu practiced day after day, Jinxiu City finally ushered in a large-scale exchange meeting that only happens once a year.
Before dawn, Luo Mu took stock of himself, put all the things he needed to bring into Storage Bag, and then left the store with a smile on his face.
Luo Mu is in a good mood to be able to catch up with this grand event.
He rushed towards the central square without stopping. When Luo Mu's figure appeared in Jinxiu City Square, he was immediately startled by the sight in front of him. Thick crowds of people appeared, and the noise of conversation could not be stopped. The sound is lingering in my ears. There are monks setting up small stalls everywhere on the ground. There are all kinds of cultivation supplies on them, such as elixirs, talismans, magic tools, etc. There are also many strange and weird things that Luo Mu has never seen before.
At this time, the eastern sky was slightly covered with clouds, but the broad square was already overcrowded. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a sea of people. Luo Mu Divine Sense After scanning, he was shocked to find that all the people who came to the square were cultivators, and they were basically Qi Refining Stage cultivators. Foundation Establishment Realm There were very few cultivators.
Upon closer inspection, there are at least thousands of monks gathered in the entire square! But there are only a few monks in the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Among ordinary people, only one in a thousand has spiritual roots, but thousands of monks gathered in the square where this happened. What a spectacle! I am afraid that all the Qi Refining Stage monks in the entire Jinxiu City territory have rushed here.
However, it can also be seen from the situation in front of us that among the thousands of monks, there are very few Foundation Establishment Realm. It can be seen that it is not that simple to break through from Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Realm. The difficulty probability should not be much easier than that of ordinary people embarking on the path of cultivation.
The number of monks Foundation Establishment Realm and Qi Refining Stage forms a sharp contrast here!
Of course, it is not ruled out that the Foundation Establishment Realm monks look down on this kind of exchange meeting, so not many people come to participate. However, it is extremely difficult to advance from Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Realm. This has been verified by all the monks who are stuck at the top level of Qi Refining Stage. There is no dispute on this point.
Thinking of this, Luo Mu couldn't help but sigh, and then shook his head, temporarily expelling the matter from his mind. After all, Luo Mu is only on the eighth floor of Qi Refining Stage, and it will take some time to get to Foundation Establishment.
Looking at the outside of the square, there were still monks coming towards the square. Luo Mu was shocked, and then like the other monks, he circled a place, took out a two-meter-wide piece of monster fur and threw it neatly on the ground.
As soon as he patted Storage Bag on his waist, several rays of white light shot out and landed on the fur of the monster beast. The light converged, and it was clear that they were pieces of monster beast materials of good quality. For the monks of Qi Refining Stage, it would be perfect to use these materials to refine weapons.
After the materials were collected, there were rectangular wooden boxes one by one. Most of the wooden boxes were two feet long, and they were placed on top of the monster beasts' furs. When counted, there were as many as a dozen!
Luo Mu waved his sleeves, and a strong wind swept away. The enclosed wooden boxes made a snapping sound one after another, and then opened. One after another, spiritual grasses were lying quietly in the wooden boxes.
The ones with the lowest quality are all first-grade mid-level ones, and the highest ones, there are actually some fourth-grade elementary ones!
These spiritual herbs were discovered by Luo Mu during several trips to Blood-Colored Valley. Since the Blood-Colored Valley monsters are not very powerful and they are all low-level monsters, there are countless monks who go to hunt the monsters or look for spiritual herbs.
Since the day Blood-Colored Valley was formed, monks have been entering it to hunt for treasures. Blood-Colored Valley has been in existence for who knows how many years. After so many years, the number of spiritual herbs in Blood-Colored Valley has become so rare that it has become a terrifying number. If it were not for the deep luck and blessings, it would be difficult to find spiritual herbs in Blood-Colored Valley, let alone the fourth-grade primary spiritual herbs of high quality.
Of course, Luo Mu was able to discover these spiritual herbs and collect them not because of Luo Mu's good luck or deep blessings, but because of the three Octagonal Spike in his hand.
Since discovering that Octagonal Spike in his hand has the talent to find spiritual and poisonous weeds, Luo Mu has been excited for a long time. And afterward, Luo Mu will Octagonal Spike's talent is fully utilized. As soon as Blood-Colored Valley is reached, Luo Mu will definitely release Octagonal Spike, and then while looking for the spiritual grass, he will also hunt down the monsters.
After several times, Luo Mu found a lot of spiritual and poisonous plants.
The ones of first-grade and below the mid-level, Luo Mu directly threw them away in the store, but the ones above the mid-level were kept. As for the poisonous weeds, those of a slightly higher grade, Luo Mu kept them for later use, while the ones of a slightly lower grade were taken directly by Luo Mu.
For monks, the importance of spiritual grass is quite obvious. It is even more important than Spirit Stone. Just like the original Father Luo, they would spend all their money to buy spiritual grass. This shows the status of spiritual grass in the minds of monks.
This exchange meeting is an annual event. Luo Mu will of course bring out some good things in exchange for his own cultivation needs.
Of course, the refining materials and spiritual herbs are just part of what Luo Mu took out. Under the wooden box containing the spiritual herbs, there are also three small ceramic bottles, with the three large character labels "Qi Gathering Pill" on them!
