Chapter 10: Incense Burner Mutation
Looking at the little white tiger's lively eyes, Li Yu felt a little ashamed.
After all, he had bad intentions when he took the Qi Gathering Pill last time, and used it as a guinea pig for drug testing.
The little white tiger obviously didn't know this and kept growling, urging Li Yu.
Li Yu flew down and picked the red fruit. As the red fruit left the branch, the red fruit tree gradually withered and eventually turned into dust and drifted away with the wind.
A red fruit tree only bears one red fruit in its lifetime, which is the crystallization of all its spiritual energy. When the fruit falls from the branch, the tree will wither.
The spiritual fruit in his hand gave off waves of heat, and Li Yu's heart was also burning. Five hundred spiritual coins was a huge sum of money for him. He could exchange many things from Elder Sun, including self-defense talismans and magic tools. He could also try to take on some slightly more advanced tasks in the future.
As soon as this thought came to Li Yu's mind, he felt a slight heat in his chest. Then the red fruit in his hand withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into a stream of heat that flowed towards the incense burner mark on his chest...
"Fuck..."
Li Yu stood there in a daze, watching the spiritual fruit in his hand turn into powder.
He was filled with infinite grief and indignation, and blurted out, "No, my medicine, my spirit coins!"
Li Yu only knew that the incense burner could absorb ghosts, but he didn't expect it could also absorb spiritual medicine. This red fruit with medicinal properties of at least a hundred years old had not even warmed up in his hands before it became a wedding dress for others...
If he had known that the incense burner was so evil, he would not have tried to get his hands on it!
However, before Li Yu could feel distressed, his body suddenly shook .
He keenly noticed that the heat flow transformed from the red fruit was not completely absorbed by the mark on his chest. A small part of it circulated in his body and then flowed into his meridians.
Afterwards, Li Yu was pleasantly surprised to find that the Shaofu acupoint, which he had been attacking for a long time without any effect, was actually opened by this hot current!
At this moment, the Shaochong and Shaofu acupoints in his body were filled with spiritual energy. He had already opened two of the eight acupoints in the first level of Qi Refining.
Li Yu was stunned for a long time. That incense burner actually has this function?
The medicinal power of spiritual medicine is very strong and cannot be taken directly. It often needs to be neutralized and refined into pills before it can be taken. This method of directly absorbing the medicinal power saves the steps of refining pills and can retain the medicinal power of the spiritual medicine to the greatest extent.
When Li Yu was stunned, the little white tiger was also stunned. With its IQ, it was not enough to figure out why the fruit that it had coveted for a long time suddenly disappeared.
However, that was originally its way of repaying the favor, so without giving it much thought, it growled at Li Yu again and ran in another direction.
Li Yu followed it closely, and soon, the man and the tiger stopped in a valley.
Li Yu clearly felt that the vegetation in this valley was growing extremely lush, unusually lush, and even covered the entire valley. In an open space where the trees grew most lushly, Li Yu found a green medicinal herb.
This herb has orchid-like slender leaves with small purple flowers.
He didn't recognize this herb, but he could feel that it contained extremely rich spiritual energy.
This was obviously also a magical medicine. The little white tiger nodded at Li Yu, indicating that this was also for him.
At the same time, Li Yu also felt a desire from the mark of the incense burner on his chest.
With the experience just now, Li Yu slowly walked to the elixir, stretched out his hand and gently touched its leaves. The next moment, the elixir withered into ashes and turned into a stream of energy, flowing from his fingers to his chest.
Different from the violent energy of the red fruit, this energy is much gentler and full of vitality. It should be a wood-attributed elixir.
Just like before, most of the energy of this spiritual medicine flowed into the mark on the chest, and a small part of it ran around in Li Yu's body. Li Yu was full of expectations, hoping to use this spiritual energy to impact the third acupuncture point, but the result was not what he expected.
The spiritual energy passed through the fire spirit vein three times without entering, and finally rushed towards another acupuncture point on Li Yu's body.
Li Yu's face changed drastically, and he said in shock: "No, not there!"
That acupoint does not belong to any of the 72 acupoints of the Fire Spirit Vein. Forceful impact may have serious consequences.
boom!
Li Yu only felt a buzzing sound in his head, and the acupuncture point was forcibly opened by the spiritual energy. A trace of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth, but Li Yu did not feel too much pain, but felt very comfortable instead.
Being in this valley, he could feel the vitality of the plants and trees around him.
Li Yu immediately thought of a possibility. Could it be that what was just opened was the wood spirit vein?
He looked down and found that some black stains had seeped out of his body. This situation was too familiar to Li Yu. It seemed that he had gathered his energy again...
Gathering Qi means using spiritual energy to open the spiritual veins. There are five spiritual veins in every person's body. These five spiritual veins are congenitally closed, so theoretically, a person can gather Qi five times, but few people do this.
The path of cultivation is extremely arduous. Every cultivator is fighting for his life against the heavens. Everyone wishes to live another 500 years. However, cultivating only one spiritual vein is still full of difficulties and dangers. It is impossible to break through and prolong life before the lifespan is used up. Unless they are true geniuses, few people are willing to waste time cultivating other spiritual veins.
For a cultivator, wasting time is truly wasting life.
Of course, the benefits of practicing one more spiritual vein are also huge. It means deeper magic power than the same level. The strength of a person in the Qi Refining Stage who practices five spiritual veins is incomparable to that of a person in the Qi Refining Stage who practices one spiritual vein.
Not only that, practicing two or more spiritual veins at the same time can also unleash power far beyond that of a single spiritual vein.
Those who cultivate both the Fire Spiritual Veins and the Water Spiritual Veins can, after building their foundation, practice thunder magic, which is more violent than fire magic.
When one cultivates both the Water Spiritual Vein and the Wood Spiritual Vein together after building the foundation, one will also be able to integrate the wind attribute, and when one runs away, it will be difficult for one to be caught up even if one is one realm higher in strength.
In addition, in order to control must cultivate the fire and wood spirit veins, while powerful weapon refiners must have cultivated both the fire and gold spirit veins at the same time...
Although considering Li Yu's qualifications, it may not necessarily be a good thing to cultivate two spiritual veins at the same time, the extra mana is free and he would rather waste it than waste it. It does not require him to spend his own time.
Before Li Yu had time to think more, the little white tiger had already called him to the next place.
Li Yu showed a happy expression: "Anything else?"
Another half hour later, they arrived at a waterfall in the mountain stream.
A waterfall dozens of feet high fell from the top of the peak, forming a deep pool in the valley. The little white tiger nodded in the direction of the waterfall. Li Yu immediately understood, flew up, crossed the waterfall, and found that there was another world behind the water curtain.
This is a water cave several meters in diameter. There is some water on the ground of the cave. On the stone platform in the center, there grows a white lotus.
Another magical medicine!
The little white tiger leaped lightly and actually spanned several feet and jumped in here.
Li Yu looked back. This kind of natural treasure usually only grows in blessed places. It is difficult for the outside world to find it. No one knows where it finds these plants...
This time Li Yu learned his lesson. He did not touch the lotus directly with his hands, but touched it through his sleeve. There was nothing unusual about the lotus.
It seems that the effect of the incense burner will only be triggered when it comes into direct contact with the elixir.
Then he stretched out his hand and touched the lotus directly.
As he expected, as the mark on his chest flickered, the spiritual energy of this elixir was drained and turned into powder.
At the same time, a gentle force flowed through his body. This force was different from the violent fire power, nor was it as full of vitality as the wood power. Its greatest feature was that it was continuous. After traveling around Li Yu's body, it suddenly opened an acupuncture point, allowing Li Yu to feel the taste of Qi gathering for the third time...
However, this time, the impurities released from his body were very few. Li Yu jumped into the pool, took a bath, rubbed his clothes, put them on, and circulated his magic power. A heat radiated from the inside out, and the wet clothes quickly dried.
Then, he guided his magic power to touch the mark of the incense burner on his chest and came to the space where the incense burner was again.
The space here is exactly the same as before. The incense burner stands here, covered with dense cracks. Li Yu walked around the incense burner several times and finally found some abnormalities.
He remembered that the last time he came in, there was a very small crack on the first horizontal stroke of the word "Qian" in "Qian Kun" on the front of the incense burner. Li Yu stared at these two words for a long time at that time and remembered this detail very clearly.
But at this moment, the crack that was thinner than a hair disappeared.
This horizontal stroke is seamless and has no flaws.
This thing can actually repair itself...
It seems that it can repair its own cracks by absorbing the spiritual power from the elixir.
However, after absorbing three spiritual herbs, the hair-sized crack was repaired. If the incense burner wants to be completely repaired, who knows how many more good things it will need to swallow. This is something that Li Yu cannot imagine at all...
