The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 699
Chapter 699 Li Qing Marriage (6)
‘”So it’s the Purple Heart Exquisite Pill. It’s rumored to be a spirit pill created by the Medicine King back then. It requires several extremely precious spirit medicines to refine. It has a very remarkable effect on the improvement of one’s cultivation.” Everyone naturally recognized this pill.
Father Liu opened the bottle and poured out a spirit pill. It was translucent purple, as beautiful as a gem. There was also a medicinal fragrance that floated throughout the entire Treasure Pavilion.
“It is indeed the Purple Heart Exquisite Pill. There is no mistake. I was fortunate enough to see it once back then. It looks exactly like this. Even its fragrance is the same.” Someone said.
“This pill is of excellent quality. It has a translucent glow and a faint spiritual circulation. Its fragrance is mellow. The skill level of the person who refined it is very high.” An alchemist said solemnly.
Father Liu said, “If you don’t have any doubts, then this bottle of spirit pills will officially be auctioned. The starting price is 80,000 spirit stones. Everyone can bid.”
The value of this bottle of Purple Heart Exquisite Pill was much higher. Even if the starting price was 80,000 spirit stones, it still attracted a burst of robbery and intense bidding. In the end, it was bought by the Divine Wind Sect for 190,000 spirit stones.
One hundred and ninety thousand spirit stones to buy a bottle of spirit pills. If it was given to those in need, and their strength had broken through, then it would definitely be earned.
The last item was a high-profile spirit artifact. Just as Father Liu took out the spirit artifact, it immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
“It’s actually a treasured sword. This item is destined for me. Everyone, don’t compete with me.” A Xiantian tenth layer expert said.
“Are you kidding me? Those with the highest sword price will obtain it. If you have the ability, then use spirit stones to fight for it.” Another expert said indifferently.
“Since it is a treasured sword, it is of course our Taihao Sword Sect’s treasure. If it falls into your hands, it will be a secret vote.” An elder from Taihao Sword Sect sneered.
All of their sect names carried the word “sword”, and the treasure of the sect was also a divine sword. All of their ultimate techniques were related to swords, so they naturally had a passion for swords.
Father Liu first showed this spirit artifact sword to the crowd, allowing everyone to see it clearly.
On the tip of the sword was the seal of Li Qing’s name. This made them even more convinced that Li Qing should have personally forged it.
“Looks like Li Qing is a tool forging master. This matter should be confirmed without a doubt. This fellow is truly capable.” Everyone looked at Li Qing with a hint of respect.
“Everyone has seen the treasured sword. We can bid next. The starting bid is 100,000 spirit stones!” Father Liu shouted excitedly.
After a fierce battle, the sword finally fell into Taihao Sword Sect’s hands, with a transaction price of 250,000 spirit stones.
“You Taihao Sword Sect already have quite a few treasured swords in your hands, right? There are even Dao Artifacts guarding the mountain gates, so why snatch them from us?” Someone said discontentedly.
“Who would think that there are too many spirit artifacts? Since we have encountered them, we naturally have to buy them.” The people of Taihao Sword Sect said calmly.
Father Liu said, “Alright, the three items have been auctioned off. I believe everyone is very curious as to whether these three items were personally forged by Li Qing. Next, I would like to invite my son-in-law, Li Qing, to show everyone his true abilities.”
Just as he finished speaking, a figure walked out from behind and appeared in front of everyone. It was Li Qing.
“He’s really young. To be able to reach the Master level at such a young age, this person’s future is limitless.” Everyone was shocked.
“Why does it feel a little familiar?” Someone said.
“Really? I don’t feel it. I’ve never seen it before.”
“Sure enough, it’s Li Qing. I saw him in Yunzhou City a few decades ago. At that time, he was still very young, but now he is much more mature. He has a calm temperament.”
Li Qing walked in front of everyone and cupped his hands towards everyone. “I, Li Qing, greet everyone.”
“Cut the crap. Show us your abilities immediately. Let’s see if you have reached the level of a master!” Someone roared impatiently.
“Since that’s the case, then I won’t say anything else. Let’s start now.” Li Qing smiled faintly and did not get angry.
He waved his hand and a stone table appeared in front of him. It was filled with all kinds of materials.
Then, he took out a talisman paper, held a spirit pen in his hand, and drew it together with many rare materials as if no one else was watching.
“Is this … is he going to carve spirit talismans?” Everyone stared at the spirit pen in Li Qing’s hand.
Li Qing’s movements were like flowing clouds and flowing water, incomparably smooth, filled with an artistic beauty. Half an hour later, a complete spirit talisman appeared in front of him.
“Success in one go. This success rate is too exaggerated, isn’t it?” Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.
‘”Why do I feel like I haven’t seen such a talisman before? There’s a strange golden character in the middle, and there are many strange patterns around it. Is it really a talisman?” Someone was puzzled.
“I have never seen anything strange. The Dao of Talisman Seals is originally very mysterious. Perhaps it is the inheritance left behind by some ancient experts.” Someone said.
“Don’t worry about it. As long as its power can reach the level of a Spirit Talisman, it’s fine.”
Li Qing gently picked up the talisman and showed it to the crowd. “Everyone, please take a look. Although this talisman is not considered top grade, it has barely reached the power of the Void Realm.”
Everyone sensed that the aura contained a faint trace of terrifying power.
It was hard to say how perfect the talisman scripts carved in a hurry were. Being able to reach the power of the Void Realm was enough to prove Li Qing’s skill level.
“Looking at that aura, it is indeed a spirit talisman. However, whether it has the power to reach the Void Realm or not, we must test it on the spot.” Someone questioned.
“Then who would dare to try?” Li Qing smiled.
Everyone immediately retreated, not daring to step forward to experiment. What a joke. Facing a Void Realm spirit talisman, they were directly blasted to pieces!
“Let me do it.” City Lord Yun Zhou took a step forward. Of course, there was no problem for Void Realm experts to personally test it.
Li Qing smiled faintly, “Senior Brother Zhou, be careful.”
After he finished speaking, he entered a wisp of True Essence and activated the power within it to attack the Cloud Continent City Lord.
Rumble!
A golden light flashed out and shot towards the Yunzhou City Lord like lightning.
City Lord Yun Zhou was shocked. He didn’t expect the power of this attack to be so strong. A white armor appeared on his body, and a layer of white clouds-shaped mist faintly appeared, blocking this golden light.
However, the Yunzhou City Lord was not completely unharmed. He was repelled by this golden light by four to five steps, and the Cloud Dragon Armor on his body was charred black.
“What a powerful spirit talisman! It has indeed reached the Void Realm!” Yun Zhou City Lord said.
Since the Cloud Continent City Lord had confirmed it, the crowd no longer had any doubts. As long as its power reached, it didn’t care if it had seen it before.
They would not doubt that the Yunzhou City Lord was lying for the sake of the Liu Clan. After all, they had seen the power of the attack just now. With such a powerful golden light, it was impossible for a non-Void Realm expert to resist it.
“Looks like Li Qing must be a talisman master. Next, it will depend on pill refining and artifact refining.” Everyone’s gazes at Li Qing became slightly respectful.
As long as they were masters, they could earn everyone’s respect wherever they went.
Li Qing waved his hand and a large cauldron appeared in front of everyone. He immediately released some of the medicinal ingredients he had prepared in advance and began to refine the medicinal pills.
As he had already dealt with the medicinal ingredients in advance, he could directly skip this process, saving a lot of time.
Everyone didn’t say anything else. After all, time was limited, so there was no problem with this method.
The time required to refine pills was very long. Everyone patiently waited and carefully observed the entire process.
A few hours passed. Li Qing’s movements were like flowing clouds and flowing water. He calmly and orderly tossed the medicinal ingredients into the medicinal furnace skillfully.
Until the final completion of the pill, there were no mistakes. Judging from this technique alone, even if he wasn’t an alchemist master, he wouldn’t be far off.
“This technique is too perfect. I am also ashamed of being inferior to you.” A high-level alchemist praised him repeatedly.
“The success rate of concocting a Spirit Pill in one go is a bit shocking. No wonder you dare to show your abilities in public.”
“May I know what Master Tu has in mind?” Someone asked an old man beside him.
This old man was precisely an alchemist master. He had high moral standards and had traveled thousands of miles to Yunzhou City to see Li Qing’s skill level.
“Well, judging from his technique, he should be a master alchemist. However, the future is still far away. He has only learned a little.” The old man said nonchalantly. While affirming Li Qing’s level, he did not forget to belittle him.
“Indeed, he is a master alchemist. The Liu Clan is not lying! Li Qing will definitely become an important figure in Yunzhou!”
“I really don’t know what kind of luck the Liu Clan has in recruiting such a son-in-law.”
Li Qing reached out his hand and slapped it. The furnace lid flew up automatically and took out more than a dozen pills. The divine light was exquisite and the fragrance was refreshing.
“Everyone, please have a taste. This batch of pills is called the Golden Marrow Pill, a low-grade spirit pill!”
“There is no need to appraise it. It is indeed a Golden Marrow Pill. However, this kind of pill can be considered one of the spirit pills that is very easy to refine. Little friend Li Qing can be said to have managed to muddle through.” Master Tu said indifferently.
As the saying goes, people in the same profession treat each other lightly, so naturally, what they say won’t sound good.
Facing this person’s provocation, Li Qing wasn’t angry at all. He said, “If Master Tu can refine a higher grade pill in public, I will admire you very much. The pill furnace is at this moment, you can immediately try!”
“Hmph, I’m not prepared. How can I rush into battle? Let’s talk about it another day.” Master Tu’s expression was unnatural.
Hearing this, everyone could tell that Master Tu was scared, so they couldn’t help but laugh in their hearts.
After all, concocting pills in front of so many people was much more difficult than concocting pills in seclusion.
When he was cultivating in seclusion alone, he didn’t feel any psychological pressure. Perhaps he could use it extraordinarily to refine high-grade water-refining pills. However, in the current noisy environment, it was a test of one’s psychological quality.
Moreover, as long as it was refining pills, there would be no one who didn’t fail. Sometimes, one had to pay attention to luck. If one carelessly caused the furnace to explode, wouldn’t their reputation be ruined in their entire lives?
How could Master Tu take such a risk?
It could be said that Li Qing’s ability to refine spirit pills in such an environment was enough to prove that his level was very high and his psychological quality was excellent.
Li Qing said, “Right now, I believe no one doubts my ability. Alchemy and talisman making have already been shown. As for the remaining item, it may take longer, so it is not convenient to show it here. However, I will not go back on my word. If I say that I want to refine it, then I will definitely do it.”
“However, there is another way. I have decided to choose one of you to forge a spirit artifact for you for free. Of course, the ingredients must be prepared by you.”
Everyone was in an uproar when they heard this. Choosing one of them to refine for free was simply the benefit of falling from the sky. How could one not be excited?
Originally, many people were annoyed because they had missed out on the spirit artifact from before. Now that they could get another chance, they would definitely have to risk their lives to obtain it.
“I wonder how you want to choose from us?” Someone asked.
