Chapter 285 Netherworld Fire Stone
As for the Three Yuan Sword Art, it is too difficult for Qingyang at present. Not to mention using the sword art, it is very strenuous to sacrifice three flying swords at the same time. There is no need to consider it in a short time.
Five days passed in a blink of an eye. During these days, Qingyang did nothing else but practice swordsmanship and familiarize himself with the five magic swords he just bought. There is not much he can do, but the effect is still very good. Qingyang feels that his combat effectiveness has increased by at least 10% or 20%.
Seeing that the agreed time has come, Qingyang put the magic sword into the storage talisman, then closed the formation of his courtyard and headed towards the outer courtyard hall.
The level of magic tools and spiritual tools is relatively low, and they cannot be directly taken into the body. They are generally placed in the storage talisman and taken out with divine thoughts during battle. And those that are usually stored in the dantian for warming must be at least a higher level of magic tools, but magic tools can only be used when they reach the golden elixir stage.
After reaching the golden elixir stage, every cultivator will refine their own life magic tools and store them in the body. They are usually warmed in the dantian and can be directly sacrificed to kill the enemy during battle. The nourishment of Dantian can gradually increase the power of magic weapons, so magic weapons are growth-oriented. They may accompany the cultivator for a lifetime. When their power reaches a certain level, they can even change the world.
Because of this, many cultivators often start preparing materials for refining magic weapons during the foundation-building period, so as not to be too late when they break through to the golden elixir period. In order to make their magic weapons start higher, the higher the level of the materials, the better. However, during the foundation-building period, the strength is low and there are few good things to come into contact with, so most cultivators' magic weapons are relatively ordinary.
Speaking of magic weapons, Qingyang couldn't help but think of the fiery red stone in his hand that he got with the jade spirit marrow. Qingyang could recognize the things he got from the netherworld real person, but he had never figured out the origin of the red stone.
After entering the outer courtyard, Qingyang's horizons broadened a lot. After multiple investigations, he roughly determined the origin of the red stone, which should be the legendary netherworld fire stone.
The Netherworld Fire Stone is an extremely precious material with fire properties. It also contains a trace of Netherworld ghost energy. The combination of yin and yang makes it an excellent material for refining the Netherworld Fire Sword, the life magic weapon.
Considering the strength of the Netherworld Master in the Foundation Establishment Period, Qingyang roughly guessed the ins and outs of the matter. This Netherworld Fire Stone should be the main material that the Netherworld Master prepared for himself to refine his life magic weapon. However, he encountered an accident later and could not use it, and it finally became cheap for Qingyang.
The materials for refining life magic weapons are not comparable to ordinary natural treasures. For many cultivators, they are simply priceless treasures, not to mention the legendary material like the Netherworld Fire Stone? How can its value be measured by spirit stones? It is estimated that as long as a little bit of it is revealed, the cultivators of the entire Jiuzhou Continent will fight for it.
Among the relics of the Netherworld Master, Qingyang originally thought that the Immortal Knocking Order and the Jade Spirit Marrow were the most valuable. Now he realizes that he was wrong. This fiery red stone is the real treasure.
Compared with the Netherworld Fire Stone, the Immortal Knocking Order and the Jade Spiritual Marrow are nothing. The value of this stone is at least dozens of times theirs. As long as Qingyang is willing to make a move, tens of thousands of spirit stones are a piece of cake. If he gets tens of thousands of spirit stones, let alone the Foundation Establishment Stage, even the Golden Core Stage can dare to hope for it.
Of course, Qingyang is just thinking about it. A man is innocent but guilty of possessing a treasure. If a low-level cultivator reveals that he has the Netherworld Fire Stone, it will bring disaster to himself. Therefore, no news about the Netherworld Fire Stone can be revealed to the outside world. It is best to forget its existence directly.
Besides, Qingyang still has some extravagant hopes for his future. Although he is still in the Qi Refining Stage, who can guarantee that he will not be able to break through to the Golden Core Stage in the future? What if he becomes a Golden Core cultivator, isn’t this Netherworld Fire Stone a ready-made magic weapon material? This thing can only be kept for now. Maybe one day in the future, he will use it.
Others only consider their natal magic weapon when they reach the middle and late stages of foundation building, but Qingyang got it when he was in the Qi Refining Stage or even the Kaimai Stage. Sometimes people's luck is like this.
Qingyang quickly came to the outer courtyard hall, made up a random excuse, and asked for leave from Uncle Deng, who was responsible for the daily management of the disciples, saying that he had something to go out for. He received a token for entering and leaving the sect, and then headed towards the mountain gate of Qingfeng Hall.
A group of people entering and leaving the immortal gate at the same time is likely to attract the attention of those who are interested, so five days ago Deng Changting warned everyone not to gather in the sect, but to find ways to get out of the mountain gate, and then go to the destination together when everyone gathers at the agreed place outside the mountain gate.
There are tens of thousands of disciples in Qingfeng Hall, and many people go in and out almost every day. It is not easy to detect after they are dispersed. I don't know how others get out. Anyway, Qingyang came to the mountain gate with the entry and exit token and was directly released without any delay.
After leaving the mountain gate, Qingyang carefully identified the road and went to the agreed meeting place. It has been nearly four years since he joined Qingfeng Hall. This is the first time he has walked out of the gate of Qingfeng Hall and felt everything outside. Everything seemed to have happened yesterday.
After walking down the mountain for about two hours, Qingyang suddenly turned to the side and followed the path to a hidden valley.
Qingyang felt that he had set off early enough, but when he arrived at the valley, he found that the people he had agreed to meet last time had almost arrived. Hou Jiangong, Tian Shengcai, and Cui Yu'an had been waiting here for a long time. Deng Changting and his follower also came earlier than Qingyang. The only missing people were Qin Ruyan and her servant.
It was still early, so everyone was not in a hurry. They just sat in meditation in the valley, waiting for the arrival of Qin Ruyan and her servants, and occasionally chatted.
Soon, Qingyang had a general understanding of the other people in the group. Deng Changting's follower was called Deng Changzhu, a distant relative of Deng Changting, but his status was far inferior to Deng Changting, so he could only be a follower beside Deng Changting. As for the two women following Qin Ruyan, they were both her maids, one was called Shijian and the other was called Shisan.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, most of the day had passed, but Qin Ruyan and her servants had not shown up yet. Not only was Deng Changting anxious, but even Hou Jiangong and others were a little impatient. The agreed time was not enough. Could something have happened?
It was not impossible. Perhaps Qin Ruyan's family had discovered that she had gone down the mountain privately, and it was possible that the deputy head was temporarily confined. But even if Qin Ruyan couldn't go out, she had to send someone to notify them. How could she let everyone wait here?
