C28 Message from the immortal path great assembly
Seeing Xue Yang's relaxed smile, Zhou Tong stood up. The two of them sat together and they got closer.
After bowing, Zhou Tong immediately changed his way of addressing Xue Yang: "Big Brother, from what Di Hua had said just now, does the sect have an event called 'Immortal Path Congress'?"
In less than three years, Star Gauze Sword Sect will hold a competition between the Immortal Path Congress s and the top three disciples of the A, B, and C sects. In the end, the top ten disciples will all be eliminated, and regardless of which sect they are in, regardless of whether they have sufficient ethereal state or not, they will all break through the rules and become honorary disciples of the Four Great Islands.
Xue Yang opened his mouth to explain, "You're not very lucky, there's only three months left to the Immortal Path Congress."
"Oh? What do you mean by unlucky? "
Xue Yang shook his head and sighed: "You might not know, but inside Immortal Path Congress, all the disciples will be participating. Don't look at how there are only thirty people in the cafeteria, in fact, most of the people with real strength in A Gate have been training in seclusion for the Immortal Path Congress. Moreover, in the other two sects, there are no lack of disciples with great strength who are preparing to use Immortal Path Congress s to display their skills; at the very least, there are no less than a hundred disciples with strength above the qi generating state. "
"Then Di Hua's big brother is one of them, right?" Zhou Tong extended his hand out to support his chin, picked up the teacup and swirled it in his hand, tilting his head to look at Xue Yang.
"That's right, Di Hua's big brother is called Di Bei, he is one of the seeded contestants who are highly regarded in the sect. His cultivation is at least at the ninth stage of the qi generating state, and is only one step away from the ethereal state.
Xue Yang laughed bitterly, and picked up the teacup in front of him to drink the tea in one gulp. Thinking back to back then, Xue Yang had relied on his strong physique to challenge Di Bei, but in the end, he lost to Di Bei's flying sword without any suspense.
"So it's like that …" Zhou Tong pinched his chin, and started to think, "Three months really is a bit tight."
"This time in Immortal Path Congress, you don't need to go head to head with others. With our strength, it is impossible for us to fight our way into the top ten. Xue Yang reached out and patted Zhou Tong's shoulder, consoling him at any moment, but there were a bit of unwillingness in his expression.
"That may not be the case." Zhou Tong gave a mysterious smile and lowered his voice, saying, "Since big brother knows how I entered the qi generating state, I think you have some understanding towards medicinal pellets. I wonder if big brother has ever heard of such a pellet, that would allow me to borrow the power of the divine lightning to refine my fleshly body?"
"The power of heavenly lightning? Are you talking about Grade Five Spirit Pill 'Heavenly Thunder Pattern Pill'? " Xue Yang frowned, and probed.
"Exactly." Zhou Tong smiled and nodded, "If I were to give Big Brother a pill, would Big Brother be confident enough to fight with Di Bei?"
"Are you sure you're not joking?" Xue Yang looked at Zhou Tong doubtfully, but the deep look in his eyes was fully displayed.
The Grade Five Spirit Pill s were known as the Body Refinement Holy Medicines for martial cultivation, and the heavenly thunder energy contained within was able to quickly improve the quality of martial cultivation in a short period of time. It was not an exaggeration to say that a single Heavenly Thunder Pattern Pill was enough for Xue Yang's cultivation of qi generating state to soar up to the qi generating state, and when Di Bei exchanged blows, he would have a lot of confidence.
"Of course I'm not making fun of you, little brother. I'm quite knowledgeable about the art of alchemy, and I know the refining method of Heavenly Thunder Pattern Pill, moreover, I have an 80% success rate." Zhou Tong stretched out his forefinger and thumb, making an 'eight' gesture in front of Xue Yang.
"If that's really the case, then this Immortal Path Congress will have a good fight!"
Hearing Zhou Tong's words, Xue Yang's face immediately revealed a look of excitement. Heavenly Thunder Pattern Pill was a genuine Grade Five Spirit Pill, let alone Xue Yang himself, even if it was his master in A Gate, it would still take some effort to concoct such a pill.
Xue Yang held Zhou Tong's hand tightly, with a fervent expression: "Is there anything I can help you with? Just speak your mind. If you are able to refine this pill, it will be a blessing for me. "
Zhou Tong scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.
"I do indeed need Big Brother's help, although I can refine this pill, I am unable to take out the most important ingredient 'thunder pattern crystal', if possible, big brother, please lend me some money, I know an appraiser in Black Rain Pavilion, with his help, I think that buying a 'thunder pattern crystal' would not be a problem, but I will return the money to Big Brother in the future, what do you think?"
To Zhou Tong, the Heavenly Thunder Pattern Pill's medicine recipe was nothing good. In his previous life, when Zhou Tong obtained this medicine formula, his cultivation had already been at the top of the lower realms. This medicine formula was given to him by someone else, so Zhou Tong did not dare to be interested in it.
However, the cost of Heavenly Thunder Pattern Pill s were also extremely high. Forget about other supplementary materials, just thunder pattern crystal s were valuable materials that were worth thousands of gold in the lower realms. This kind of crystal stone was only produced by vicious beasts that carried lightning in the Wasteland. Its extremely low yield caused its price to be extremely high.
Zhou Tong reckoned that it was possible for a single thunder pattern crystal to sell for hundreds or even hundreds of Mysterious Coin. But now, Zhou Tong himself only had a few Mysterious Coin left. Although he still had a lot of pellets and tools to sell, he was still a bit unsure.
Xue Yang saw through Zhou Tong's problem with a glance, and immediately grinned: "What are you saying? Since we are brothers, there is no need for us to not borrow anything. In this way, I might go out to train in a few days. I will leave this matter entirely to you.
As he said that, Xue Yang took out a jade tablet from his pocket and placed it in Zhou Tong's hands. It was a jade plate used to store coins. For larger transactions, it was much easier to use this jade plate than to use cash.
There are about five hundred Mysterious Coin inside this jade plate, hold on, you can prepare the materials according to the quantity of two, give yourself one too, and how much it will cost, take it all out, I will write a letter to you, if there is not enough money in this jade plate, you can hand the letter over to the people from the merchant guild, they will handle it.
The heavy jade tablet was given to Zhou Tong. Although five hundred Mysterious Coin were not worth much to Zhou Tong, the famous forger and alchemist of his previous life, it still gave him a sense of warmth in his heart. It could be seen that Xue Yang completely trusted him, and without even asking for any details, he had already given him a huge amount of support.
"Alright, since big brother is so kind, little brother will accept it." When brother is back, I will offer you the pill. "
Zhou Tong kept the jade token and nodded his head seriously, and the two started talking and laughing.
A few days later, Xue Yang left the sect and went on an experiential learning mission. Since he had nothing better to do in the sect by himself, he went to report his request to his sect. He took a badge from Taoist Master Bai Ling and headed down the mountain to Star Gauze City.
Star Gauze City was located at the main road leading to the Southland, which was the capital of the Southland. Be it the size, population, or prosperity, it was one of the top cities in the Southland.
In his previous life, Zhou Tong had seen too many bustling places. In the Void Universe, a clan, and sect could be counted with just how many planets existed within a single realm. A mere city wouldn't be able to give Zhou Tong any sort of visual impact, but there was one thing that made Zhou Tong let out a sigh.
"It's really hot!"
Zhou Tong sat on a rickshaw with his limbs spread out, dehydrated to the point that he looked like a dried salted fish under the scorching sun. The heat in Star Gauze City was much more terrifying than the Cang Lan City, even though it was already autumn, the weather was still so hot that it could kill people.
"Little bro isn't a local, right?" The half naked carriage driver looked at Zhou Tong's dying look, and revealed a bright smile, then pulled the carriage into the shade.
Zhou Tong nodded, his aura drifting even more. "Ah, from a small city, this place is so much hotter than home."
"Oh, so that's how it is. Little brother, you don't know about this, ah. There are too many good places to go to in this Stargaze city."
Hearing that Zhou Tong was not a local, the coachman immediately revealed a strange smile. As he continued to chat with Zhou Tong, he pulled Zhou Tong and continued to walk through the streets and alleys.
"Hey, Black Rain Pavilion is here. Thank you, little brother."
Once he got out of the car, Zhou Tong grinned, clenching his fists, wanting to beat them up.
Putting aside the fact that the carriage driver had charged him a hundred gold coins, just the fact that the man dragged him for two hours straight was enough to infuriate Zhou Tong to the point that his hair stood on end.
