Immortal Palace Longevity - Chapter 116: Aftermath
“Junior Brother Liu is an alchemist?”
Bai Yuxuan was not surprised that Liu Yu knew her name. After handing over the jade tube, she asked softly. Her voice was still cold and there was a sense of keeping people away from her.
When she checked Liu Yu’s identity token just now, she knew that this junior brother was a cultivator from another courtyard like herself, so she asked this question.
“That’s right! But for the time being, he can only refine pills for the Qi Refining Stage.”
“I don’t know why Senior Sister Bai asked this question?”
Liu Yu took the copied jade tube, put a hundred spirit stones on the counter, and replied calmly.
“Nothing, just want to remind Junior Brother that alchemy is an external way after all, and one’s own realm is the foundation.”
“Don’t be too obsessed, otherwise it will be too late to regret when you die.”
Bai Yuxuan’s starry eyes were bright, and she glanced at Liu Yu lightly and said softly.
“Thank you for your reminder, Senior Sister. I know my limits.”
Liu Yu felt the kindness and smiled politely.
Bai Yuxuan did not say anything else, but picked up a book of spell experience and flipped through it. For her, reminding this new junior brother was already a matter of consideration for their background.
Seeing this, Liu Yu turned around and walked downstairs.
Although he did not know why Senior Sister Bai reminded him, he was not the kind of person who could not move when he saw a beautiful woman. It was better to have less contact with such a cultivator whose strength far exceeded his own.
Although he did not need to maintain his Yuanyang body after building his foundation, if he simply wanted to vent his desires, there was no need to provoke those with strong strength and deep background. With his foundation-building cultivation, many female disciples were willing to rely on him.
Liu Yu left the Sutra Library and walked straight to the Zhengyuan Hall where Geng Yuanzhang was.
Since he accepted Geng Yuanzhang’s help to successfully build his foundation, he would not want to break his promise unless there were special circumstances. After all, the Heart Demon Oath was not a joke. The cost of breaching the contract was too high and would affect his own path.
A moment later, Liu Yu came to the Zhengyuan Hall. At this time, the two outer disciples who guarded the gate were still the same as half a year ago.
“Hello, uncle. What can I do for you?”
The two of them could sense the spiritual pressure of the foundation-building period from afar. Seeing that their former inner sect senior brother was now a foundation-building deacon, they were shocked and quickly accepted this change. They quickly bowed and said carefully.
“Liu wants to see Uncle Geng.”
Liu Yu looked at the two and said lightly.
“Uncle, please come in quickly. Uncle Geng is just inside.”
The two smiled flatteringly and didn’t even bother to report. They didn’t dare to stop the foundation-building deacon at all. They nodded and bowed to open the door.
Liu Yu didn’t pay much attention to the two outer sect disciples and walked into the Zhengyuan Hall.
When he walked into the hall, Geng Yuanzhang was already standing in the small room by the window. It was still rare for a foundation-building cultivator to come to the Zhengyuan Hall. With his late foundation-building cultivation, it was not surprising that he found Liu Yu coming.
“Congratulations to Brother Liu for his successful foundation-building. You can expect a great future!”
Geng Yuanzhang’s old face showed a rare smile, and he said with a bow, sincerely.
He had invested in many people before, but unfortunately, none of them succeeded in building a foundation. After all, only one out of a hundred inner disciples could build a foundation, and the ratio of outer disciples was even more exaggerated.
There were only four or five hundred foundation-building cultivators in the Yuanyang Sect, and this was because the life span of foundation-building cultivators was longer than that of Qi-refining cultivators.
Now that Liu Yu could successfully build a foundation, his great-grandson sect would not be left alone after his death and would be protected, so Geng Yuanzhang’s congratulations came from the heart.
“I don’t deserve it, I don’t deserve it. The foundation-building stage is just the beginning of the immortal road, the second realm of immortal cultivation. How can it be expected to be a great road?”
Liu Yu was in a good mood after successfully building a foundation. He walked to the small window and replied with a smile.
The two looked at each other and laughed together. When the laughter stopped, Geng Yuanzhang invited Liu Yu to sit at a small table in the house and poured him a cup of spiritual tea full of spiritual energy.
Then Geng Yuanzhang took out a black flying boat from his storage bag, and a fiery red flying sword with a lifelike flame bird carved on the sword body. He put the two magic weapons on the table and pushed them towards Liu Yu.
“What does this mean, Brother Geng?”
Liu Yu frowned and asked in confusion.
He had personally experienced the speed of this black flying boat. It was a real top-grade magic weapon. Considering the rarity of flying magic weapons, it was enough to be equivalent to half a foundation-building pill.
As for the fiery red flying sword, its spiritual light and power in the spiritual sense were even more amazing, surpassing all the magic weapons Liu Yu had seen. Could it be… a spiritual weapon?
The so-called spiritual weapon is a special magic weapon that can seal the spirit of a demon beast and can transform into a spiritual weapon. The power is related to the material of the spiritual weapon itself and the soul sealed, but it does not mean that a spiritual weapon is necessarily stronger than a top-grade magic weapon. A sophisticated top-grade magic weapon can also beat a mid-grade spiritual weapon. A top-grade spiritual weapon also needs to perform a spiritual weapon transformation to defeat a top-grade magic weapon.
However, the manufacture of spiritual tools is much more difficult than that of magic tools. The spirit of the monster and the magic tool must have compatible properties. If the spirit of the monster fails to be sealed, not only will the spirit be destroyed, but the magic tool is also likely to be directly damaged.
Moreover, the power of low-grade spiritual tools is almost the same as that of ordinary top-grade magic tools. Only when the power of high-grade spiritual tools is truly surpassed by top-grade magic tools, but the cost and price of spiritual tools are much more expensive than magic tools. Generally, cultivators in the early and middle stages of foundation building use top-grade magic tools. Even cultivators in the late stages of foundation building do not all have high-grade spiritual tools.
“To be honest, I am now running out of energy and have only two or three years left to live.”
“It is useless to keep this magic tool. If I pass it on to my great-grandson, it will be a disaster rather than a blessing.”
“Brother Liu, take it and use it. After I pass away, my great-grandson will be in my care.”
Geng Yuanzhang was quite calm when he mentioned that his life span was coming to an end. He sighed and took a sip of the teacup.
Liu Yu had a blank expression on his face, but he was a little moved in his heart.
In his spiritual perception, which was far stronger than that of ordinary foundation-building cultivators, Geng Yuanzhang was already emitting a strong aura of death. He knew that his time was running out, but he could face death calmly, which was better than many cultivators.
A rare flying magic weapon and a powerful spiritual weapon were given away just to pave the way for his descendants. It was really a good intention. It was pitiful for the parents in the world.
However, this matter was beneficial to him. His strength in the Qi Refining Stage was top-notch, but some means were outdated when he reached the Foundation Building Stage, such as the trump card “Xuanniao Fiery Talisman” that he had risked to exchange for spiritual medicine.
The cultivators in the foundation building stage basically have top-grade magic weapons. His advantage in the Qi Refining stage has disappeared. This flying sword magic weapon came at the right time, which can greatly increase his strength. The escape speed of the black flying boat can also greatly improve his ability to save his life.
Many thoughts flashed through his mind, and Liu Yu smiled again, saying with a smile:
“In this case, I will not refuse it.”
“Don’t worry, Senior Brother Geng, I will never forget the oath I made to the inner demon, and I will take good care of your grandson.”
“If he can cultivate to the perfection of Qi Refining, Junior Brother will find ways to get him a foundation building pill, which is also worthy of Senior Brother’s previous help and two magic weapons.”
After speaking, he stretched out his hand and grabbed, and put the fiery red flying sword and the black flying boat into the storage bag.
“After hearing what Junior Brother Liu said, I feel relieved. The rest depends on the kid’s own luck.”
Geng Yuanzhang sighed and said with a wry smile, and then introduced the two magic weapons and spiritual weapons.
The black flying boat is called the Escape Wind Boat. It is made from the dragon bones of a second-level wind-attributed demon dragon. It has an extremely strange speed. When it is fully driven, it is a little faster than the cultivators of the same level, and it does not consume much mana. There is also a groove on the boat that can be used to put in wind-attributed spirit stones to drive it, which can then be three times faster.
