Chapter 616 Dark Moon Palace
Fairy Qinglian got a pot of Qingxin Brewing. According to Nangong Yuehua, this wine is a fourth-level spiritual wine that can increase the chance of having a baby.
A baby-forming spiritual object sells for more than one million overseas. The price of a high-grade defensive magic weapon is about the same as that of a baby-forming spiritual object. In the eyes of Han Changming and other pill-forming monks, the infant-forming spiritual object is naturally more precious. However, the Nangong family considers high-grade defensive magic weapons to be more precious. The magic weapon is used as the reward for second place. This magic weapon is definitely not comparable to ordinary high-grade defensive magic weapons.
Zhao Tuozi won fourth place and received a mid-grade alchemy furnace, which was a good reward. You must know that the Ling Xiao furnace used by Master Ling Xiao was also a mid-grade alchemy furnace.
The rewards offered by the Nangong Family are so generous and wealthy. From this, we can see the strength of the Nangong Family. An ordinary force would not be able to offer so many rewards.
The value of all the rewards added up to tens of millions of spirit stones, which is an astronomical sum.
"The alchemy conference is over. Our Nangong family has just received a batch of goods. If you are free, you might as well go to the Golden Butterfly Pavilion to take a look. In addition to selling goods, we also purchase various immortal cultivation resources and rare treasures. As long as you have something Okay, the price guarantees that all fellow Taoists will be satisfied."
Nangong Yunyan said slowly, her voice was not loud and spread throughout the square.
The Nangong family gave out a reward worth tens of millions of spirit stones and held an alchemy conference, hoping that it would be a loss. In fact, it was not the case. The prizes were all produced by the Nangong family. The material cost was less than two million spirit stones and the cost was two million spirit stones. Shi, make friends with major forces in the outer seas, and collect resources for cultivating immortals at the same time. This transaction is a sure profit.
The monks agreed one after another and left one after another.
Back at their residence, Fairy Qinglian and Han Changming handed over the rewards. Master Ling Xiao waved his hand and said, "This is the reward you won. You can keep it for yourself!"
"Yes, master."
Fairy Qinglian and Han Changming agreed in unison.
"You should be more careful when traveling in the future. What is good in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Throughout the ages, many talented people have died before they grew up. Do you understand?"
Master Ling Xiao's tone was serious. In this alchemy conference, the two disciples had earned him enough face, and his enemies would also target the two disciples.
Han Changming and Fairy Qinglian agreed wholeheartedly, and they also understood this truth.
"As a teacher, I will stay on Sifang Island for a while. You can move around freely! Making more friends will be of great benefit to your future development. Cultivation of immortality is not just about hard work, but about being familiar with the world."
Master Ling Xiao told him that he should also make some friends to exchange cultivation experiences and purchase resources for cultivating immortals.
Wealth lovers are in the right place, and lovers come second. This shows that it is necessary to make friends with people of the same profession.
Han Changming and Fairy Qinglian responded, bowed and retreated.
Back at his residence, Han Changming took out a palm-sized red jade pendant with a mini carp pattern engraved on its surface.
It was the first time for Han Changming to see a top-grade defensive magic weapon, the red carp pendant, a jade pendant-like defensive magic weapon.
His eyes were fiery. This was a high-grade defensive magic weapon. It was rare for a pill-forming monk to possess a high-grade magic weapon.
He threw the red carp pendant forward, inserted a magic spell, and let it float in mid-air, intending to refine the treasure.
With a high-grade defensive magic weapon, Han Changming could fight with the enemy and his survival rate improved a lot.
In addition to his solid alchemy level, the spiritual water produced by the Taiyi Hualing Gourd is crucial for him to get second place. Without the spiritual water, Han Changming estimates that he can refine up to three middle-grade elixirs, which is already very good. , ordinary alchemists can't refine even one.
······
In a secluded courtyard, Zhao Tuozi sat on a blue stone bench with a thoughtful expression on his face.
An alchemy furnace with green light flowing erratically was placed in front of him. The alchemy furnace had three legs and two ears. It was a middle-grade magic weapon.
A middle-aged man of medium build stood in front of him with a respectful expression.
"Is he the one who made elixirs for the two immortals Qianli? Is the information correct?"
Zhao Tuozi's voice was low and his eyes were solemn.
"Exactly, it's absolutely true. I didn't expect that this person's level of alchemy is so high, and he is still under the disciple of Master Ling Xiao."
The middle-aged man said cautiously.
Zhao Tuozi nodded, turned his eyes, and asked casually, "Where did you go last night? I sent people to look for you and you couldn't find it?"
"My subordinate is out wandering."
The middle-aged man said this with a look of panic in his eyes.
"Really? If you think I'm treating you badly, just say it clearly, why would you collude with outsiders? If I hadn't saved you, you would have died in the monster's mouth. I didn't expect that I saved a white-eyed wolf."
Zhao Tuozi's tone turned cold, with a sarcastic look on his face.
The middle-aged man's face turned pale, and he quickly knelt down and begged: "My subordinates were also forced, please spare your life, Elder Zhao!"
"Tell me! Who bribed you, Lu Yunjie?"
Zhao Tuozi's tone became colder.
There are conflicts within all the major forces, and Penglai Island is no exception. He is a disciple of Master Sanjue, but he and Lu Yunjie, a descendant of Master Tiansha, dislike each other. Although they are friendly on the surface, they have many small actions in private.
The middle-aged man nodded and kowtowed quickly.
"Lu Yunjie, I knew it was him. What did he want to ask you about?"
Zhao Tuozi asked.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and said, "He asked about Elder Zhao's movements, but I didn't tell him the truth."
Zhao Tuozi stepped forward and helped the middle-aged man up, saying: "For the sake of you having been with me for many years, I will leave you a whole body!"
The middle-aged man was shocked when he heard this. His eyes were wide open, his hands were pinching his neck, foaming at the mouth, his body was shaking, and he fell to the ground.
Zhao Tuozi is not only a third-level alchemist, he is also proficient in using poison and can kill people invisible.
······
In a certain secret room, Nangong Yunyan was talking to a middle-aged woman with thick hands and feet. The interior was sparsely decorated, with nothing else but a stone table and a few stone benches.
The middle-aged woman's facial features are ordinary, and there is no fluctuation in mana on her body.
"I didn't expect Dark Moon Palace to have a branch in a place like the outer sea. If I had known this, I wouldn't have had to ask those guys for help."
Nangong Yunyan said with a smile, holding a shiny golden square token in her hand. There was a black moon pattern engraved on the front of the token, which seemed to represent something.
The Dark Moon Palace is a mysterious organization. As long as it can afford the price, it will do anything, including murder, intelligence, immortal cultivation resources, exploration of secret realms, etc. To put it simply, as long as the spirit stone is given, the Dark Moon Palace will do anything.
Dark Moon Palace has a bad reputation in Zhongtian Continent, but I didn’t expect it to have branches overseas.
If you want to do business with the Dark Moon Palace, you must have the Dark Moon Token. After the alchemy conference, a large number of monks went to the Golden Butterfly Pavilion to buy goods. The Nangong Family acquired a Dark Moon Token and used the Impermanence Token to find a place in the Dark Moon Palace. stronghold.
"Since fellow Taoist can come with the Dark Moon Order, you are our guest of Dark Moon Palace. Tell us your request!"
The middle-aged woman's voice was calm.
Nangong Yunyan took out a piece of letter paper, handed it to the middle-aged woman, and said, "We are looking for this thing. We don't know what it is specifically."
The middle-aged woman shook her right palm and said in a deep voice: "Five million spiritual stones, a deposit of one million. If the thing is in the hands of a big influence, you will have to pay more."
"No problem, but we don't know where this thing is, and we have no way to sense its location, only the pattern."
Nangong Yunyan took out a cyan storage ring and threw it to the middle-aged woman.
The middle-aged woman checked the number of spiritual stones. After confirming that they were correct, she took out the banknotes, wrote two receipts herself, and stamped them, one for each person.
"If we find this object, we will contact Mrs. Nangong immediately."
Nangong Yunyan nodded, put away the papers, stood up and left.
The middle-aged woman took out a green dharma plate, entered a dharma formula, and said in a deep voice: "Hurry up and deal with that Zhao Tuozi. The guests are urging you to do it more cleanly."
"Yes, Captain."
A manly voice suddenly sounded.
······
Han Changming sat cross-legged on the futon. The red carp pendant floated in mid-air, emitting a dazzling red light. The carp on the surface of the jade pendant seemed to come alive, swimming around on the surface of the jade pendant, and its tail kept twisting.
With a squeeze of his magic technique, the aura of the red carp pendant dimmed and landed on his chest.
Han Changming breathed a sigh of relief, with a happy look on his face.
With a top-grade magic weapon for self-defense, he felt much more at ease.
He walked out of his residence and saw Han Benfu and Han Duanrong standing at the door, holding a thick stack of transmission notes in their hands.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Han Changming asked casually.
"Dad, there are many fellow Taoists sending messages to you. This is the message they sent."
Han Benfu shook the transmission talisman in his hand, his face full of pride.
Not many people knew Han Changming originally. After the alchemy conference, Han Changming suddenly became famous.
Han Changming was a little surprised when he saw the thick transmission talisman in Han Benfu's hand. He did not expect that there would be so many alchemy monks giving him transmission talismans.
“Thanks to my grandfather’s great blessing, I can enjoy discounts wherever I buy goods.”
Han Duanrong said with a smile.
Han Changming smiled calmly, took the transmission notes, and checked them one by one. The transmission notes were sent by alchemy monks from various major forces, including merchants, immortal cultivating families, and immortal cultivating sects. They all wanted to get to know Han Changming and get to know a refiner. It is a great honor for an alchemist to produce a top-grade elixir.
"Fairy Han contacted me? Come on, let's go see Fairy Han."
Han Changming took them out of his residence. The streets were crowded with people and very lively.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Han Changming came to the door of a nine-story golden attic. The plaque read "Piaoyun Tower" in three large characters.
Han Changming and the other three walked into Piaoyun Tower. The lobby was spacious and clean, and there were many monks drinking tea.
Seeing Han Changming, many monks looked at Han Changming with different expressions, such as admiration, envy, worship, etc.
Han Changming was not used to being stared at by so many monks.
A young man in green clothes walked over quickly and said with a smile on his face: "Senior Han, the two seniors have been waiting for a long time. Please come upstairs."
They followed Qingyi Xiaosi to a private room on the fifth floor. Han Chaoyang and Han Wenqing had been waiting for a long time.
"Sorry, Senior Han and Fairy Han, something delayed us. We are late."
Han Changming clasped his fists and said in a sincere tone.
Han Chaoyang was a little surprised when he saw Han Changming. He didn't expect Han Changming to come to the appointment so soon.
With three materials, he was able to refine a middle-grade elixir for the first time. Han Changming won second place in the alchemy competition and his reputation soared. Many forces were vying to befriend Han Changming. Han Chaoyang did not expect Han Changming to come to the appointment so quickly.
"Little friend Han is joking. It's not too late for us to be happy that you can come to the banquet!"
Han Chaoyang's tone was warm, and he asked Han Changming and the others to sit down.
"Little friend Han, I would like to offer you a cup of tea instead of wine. Congratulations on winning the second place in the alchemy competition."
Han Chaoyang picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Han Changming did not dare to be negligent and responded quickly.
"Senior Han, you're welcome. Thanks to the master's guidance, otherwise I wouldn't have made such great progress."
Han Changming said modestly, giving all the credit to Master Ling Xiao.
Practice makes perfect. If you practice a lot, Han Wenqing is sure to refine a middle-grade elixir. If there are only three ingredients, she really won't be able to refine a middle-grade elixir.
"Fellow Daoist Han, I'd like to give you a drink, little sister."
Han Wenqing raised her tea cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Han Changming responded quickly and said with a smile: "You're welcome, Fairy Han. With your talent, I believe it is only a matter of time before you can refine a middle-grade elixir."
"Little friend Han, I have an unkind request. Can you give me some advice on Qing'er's alchemy? How about we use the Beast-nurturing Pill as reward?"
Han Chaoyang looked at Han Changming expectantly. The last time he asked Master Ling Xiao to make elixirs, Master Ling Xiao opened his mouth. He had something to ask for and could only satisfy Master Ling Xiao's request.
Without a fourth-level alchemist, the Han family needed fourth-level elixirs, which they had to either buy at a high price or hire someone to make the elixirs, which was very troublesome.
It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. Han Changming has not grown up yet. Now it is relatively easy to ask Han Changming to give guidance to Han Wenqing. If Han Changming reaches the Nascent Soul stage, it will not be easy to ask Han Changming to give guidance to Han Wenqing in alchemy.
"This... junior will probably have to go back and ask his master for instructions. To be honest, there are many fellow Taoists who want me to teach them how to make elixirs."
Han Changming smiled bitterly, with a troubled look on his face.
He didn't need to ask Master Ling Xiao for instructions. Others wouldn't value things that were too easy to obtain. Han Changming wanted to whet Han Chaoyang's appetite and thought about it for a few days before agreeing to him, so that Han Chaoyang would be more grateful to him.
"Yes, Xiaoyou Han will think about it slowly. In terms of remuneration, Xiaoyou Han will definitely be satisfied."
Han Chaoyang promised, patting his chest.
Han Changming nodded, changed his tone and said: "Speaking of alchemy, Fairy Song from Wanfa Sect is much better than me. She has a high-grade alchemy furnace, which is said to be an imitation of the Lingbao Nine Dragon Cauldron. It's really impressive. People envy you.”
He deliberately directed the topic towards Song Qingqing and mentioned the Nine Dragon Cauldron.
Unfortunately, Han Chaoyang and Han Wenqing's reactions were normal.
"Song Xiaoyou is indeed powerful. He is worthy of being the disciple of the master of Wanfa Sect. However, I believe that given time, Han Xiaoyou will definitely be able to surpass Song Xiaoyou."
Han Chaoyang praised.
After chatting for more than half an hour, Han Changming stood up and left, taking Han Benfu and Han Duanrong to the next party.
"Ancestor..."
Han Wenqing wanted to say something, but Han Chaoyang stopped her.
"Let's talk about it when we get back."
Han Chaoyang said in a deep voice, the Nine Dragon Cauldron is one of the five treasures of the Han family on Kowloon Island. I thought it was destroyed, but I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of the Wanfa Sect.
