The Legend of Qingpeng: Starting from the Costinus

Zhou Chun’s mind was racing.

After thinking for a long time, he made up his mind to give up the jade slip.

Now, running away is his top priority.

The reason why he was able to arrive at the cave first was because Xu Rulin came here to guard the Netherworld Abyss, and he was brought along.

Those who are infected by evil spirits from all over the cultivation world will come here sooner or later.

He was lucky, as all the demon-tainted people closest to this place died in this battle.

The only one who managed to survive was killed by him because he was seriously injured, so he still has time to escape.

"Now that I have accepted all the memories of a Nascent Soul cultivator, my path to the Nascent Soul stage will be smooth. There is no need to fight with so many clones for a jade slip."

"For me, being able to form a pill is considered good luck, and I don't have much time left to live."

Zhou Chun comforted himself, and in his heart he was thinking of Zhou Yu and his beautiful wife, whom he met and fell in love with by chance.

His thoughts seemed to have unconsciously returned to the time when he was an ordinary cultivator who had lived an ordinary life, without even realizing it.

……

Near Jingui Lake, on a high mountain surrounded by thick fog.

At this moment, Li Qing had already opened all the jade boxes and jade bottles in the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator's storage bag and checked them one by one.

The contents inside did not disappoint his expectations.

There are six jade boxes in total, and they all contain the materials needed to refine the spectroscopic sword.

Among them, the least valuable and easiest to obtain is a large piece of "Imprint Stone".

Li Qing remembered that Xi Hezi had once mentioned this stone.

It is the material used to make a talisman ink called "Watermark Mirage Talisman".

Or it is because Xi Hezi herself is a talisman master, and a quasi-third-level talisman master.

After his good friend Yu Qinghe was promoted to the Golden Elixir stage, he began to study this talisman, preparing to refine it as a gift.

It was during the period of intensive research and the popularization of knowledge about insects that Li Qing had the opportunity to understand.

I heard that it is also an important material needed to make jade slips that record photos.

However, the most valuable item is a small piece of "Essence of Xin Metal" the size of a fingernail, which is also the main material for refining the splitting sword. However, a huge amount is required, which is obviously not enough.

This material can be said to be the best choice for refining the natal magic weapon, and is as famous as the "Essence of Geng Gold".

Adding a little bit of Xin gold to any sword magic weapon can increase the toughness of the magic weapon to a higher level.

There is also a function that Li Qing had heard of in his previous life, which is similar to memory metal.

After a magic weapon is damaged, it can recover on its own. Even if it is broken, it can heal over time. Its value and rarity are quite high.

As for the other four, they are various auxiliary materials for refining the spectroscopic sword, but they are actually quite difficult to collect.

After all, this Xuantian Lingbao is a spiritual object nurtured by heaven and earth, and it is a spiritual treasure of heaven and earth.

His two refining drawings were nothing more than imitation drawings recorded by predecessors when they painstakingly copied and imitated these Xuantian spiritual treasures.

But no matter how it is imitated, the lower limit of the original is only a certain level, and the materials needed for the imitation cannot be much less precious.

The six materials now are just the tip of the iceberg of the materials needed to refine the spectroscopic sword. It is almost impossible to collect all the materials.

And this might be the result of the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator’s collection of work for most of his life.

Although Li Qing was very envious of the imitation of the Xuantian Lingbao, he just planned to let things take their course and would not travel around the world just to look for those materials.

This time, just looking for a soul-stirring evil spirit almost cost him his life. If he also needs to find the materials for the Xuantian Lingbao, he can consider how to be reborn well.

As for the things in those jade bottles, there is nothing much to say. They are just some elixirs for Nascent Soul cultivators to improve their cultivation, as well as for healing and detoxification.

These are all essential elixirs when traveling in the world of cultivation.

After putting everything down, Li Qing turned his attention to a huge refining furnace beside him.

This furnace is the most precious item on the Ghost King besides the black robe.

It's not just because the refining furnace is a fourth-tier magic weapon, but also because it contains a kind of spiritual fire from heaven and earth.

The flame was ink-black in color. Although Li Qing didn't recognize it now, from the throbbing coming from the demon soul, it seemed that this spiritual fire could burn the demon soul, which was very magical.

But it is not easy to refine this fire. There is a method to refine the spiritual fire of heaven and earth in Li Qing’s inheritance, but it requires the fourth level.

He slightly mobilized his demonic power and input it into the array pattern in the refining furnace, but there was no response.

Li Qing then increased his strength and controlled all of his demonic power to flow into the refining furnace.

I don't know how long it took, when Li Qing's vast amount of demonic power, which he possessed because of his physical body, was almost exhausted.

The "Fire Control Array Pattern" finally responded and began to flash.

Immediately afterwards, Li Qing could actually sense a large ball of black flame in the furnace.

He knew that through the refining furnace, he could control this spiritual fire of heaven and earth without refining it, but this required enormous demonic power.

Li Qing did not try to control the spiritual fire again. This furnace was at the fourth level, and he was only at the third level. The fact that he could activate the formation pattern was already a sign of his powerful bloodline.

If you want to control the spiritual fire, the demonic power you need to consume will be more than that.

The spiritual consciousness withdrew from the refining furnace, and the demonic power also stopped being input.

He was just checking his harvest with the mood of opening a present, and it didn't matter if he couldn't use it now.

Next, Li Qing shifted his gaze to a banner and a purple bead that was split in half.

Needless to say, the flag was the Yinhun Banner of the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator. He had heard from the Ghost King about the origin of the Yinhun Banner. Now that he had the black robe, the flag was of no use to him.

And there is a high probability that it cannot be used, so Li Qing just glanced at it and then turned his gaze to the purple bead.

This bead seemed to be ruined, but he still had hope.

The reason is because of the powerful effect of this bead. It can protect the soul and defend against attacks from the soul. It just makes up for his shortcomings and can be mass-produced in due course.

After a moment, Li Qing put down the two half beads with disappointment in his heart, but it was only for a moment, and his mood quickly turned to excitement again.

It doesn’t matter if the beads are unusable. This harvest is already enough, and he is never greedy anyway.

Finally, Li Qing looked at the storage bag on the body of the Jindan demon cultivator he killed when he obtained the soul-stirring evil spirit.

Compared to the harvest he had just checked, he had not expected much for this small collection of golden elixirs.

As soon as I probed with my spiritual sense, I found something strange.

"This Jindan demon cultivator seems to be quite wealthy."

"Could it be that he embezzled the Netherworld Stone?"

I saw that there were many things in the storage bag, but the most were spirit stones. In total, there were tens of millions of low-grade spirit stones.

Ignoring the spirit stone, Li Qing continued to check.
