112: 79 Iron Tail Scorpion advances to the second rank, Divine Sense Attack_2 112: 79 Iron Tail Scorpion advances to the second rank, Divine Sense Attack_2 Second-tier spell, Wind Rolls the Remnants of Clouds!
Shen Long’s Life-Bound Spirit Bird was the Gold-Winged Windroc; he spent two hours every day practicing this spell, and he had successfully cultivated it to Great Perfection.
If word of this got out, it would definitely shock everyone.
The difficulty of cultivating a second-tier spell was much higher than that of a first-tier spell.
Many Foundation Establishment Cultivators would spend over a decade to possibly cultivate a second-tier spell to Great Perfection, and that’s for the Five Elements spells.
Spells of the wind, thunder, and ice systems would require even more time.
Many cultivators from the Spirit Control Sect chose Spirit Birds as their Life-Bound Spirit Beasts.
Those who wanted to cultivate a second-tier wind system spell to Great Perfection would need at least ten years at the fastest.
Shen Long spent two hours every day cultivating Wind Rolls the Remnants of Clouds, and he reached Great Perfection in just two years.
Shen Long’s swift cultivation of Wind Rolls the Remnants of Clouds to Great Perfection was largely due to the high purity of the Gold-Winged Windroc’s bloodline.
This was not just Shen Long’s speculation but the experience of cultivators from the Spirit Control Sect who nurtured their Life-Bound Spirit Beasts.
The higher the purity of the Life-Bound Spirit Beast’s bloodline, the greater the feedback to the cultivator.
This is also why many Spirit Controllers strive to improve the bloodline purity of their Life-Bound Spirit Beasts.
With a thought from Shen Long, the cyan tornado dispersed.
The Gold-Winged Windroc descended from the sky, landing in front of Shen Long, issuing a sharp cry and flapping its wings continuously, causing gusts of wind and clouds of dust to rise.
Shen Long took out two Spirit Feeding Pills and fed them to the Gold-Winged Windroc.
Due to its relatively high bloodline purity, it required more cultivation resources.
Shen Long took out ten twenty-year-old Qingfeng Grasses and fed them to the Gold-Winged Windroc.
After feasting, the Gold-Winged Windroc flapped its wings gently and flew into the high skies.
A quarter hour later, Shen Long called it back into the spirit beast bag and left the Spirit Control Tower.
The Iron Tail Scorpion lay motionless in a corner of the stone chamber.
Shen Long walked out of Qingtang Courtyard and arrived at the square where Loose Cultivators set up their stalls, placing a piece of coarse cloth on the ground and setting out some porcelain bottles.
The porcelain bottles contained elixirs he had refined, both first-tier and second-tier.
They could be bought with Spirit Stones or exchanged for items such as ores, Spirit Wood, Spiritual Medicine, Pill Formulas, Wine Recipes, and so on.
Shen Long took out a thick cyan booklet with the words “Thousand Herbs Scripture” written on the cover, which was an encyclopedia of Spirit Plants.
“Senior Shen, may I exchange these artifact refining materials for a bottle of Qi Nourishing Pills?”
A pleasant female voice sounded.
Shen Long looked up and saw Liu Yuruo standing before him.
Liu Yuruo did not know Shen Long’s true identity and had frequently exchanged materials with Shen Long for first-tier elixirs.
She took out more than a dozen ores, her face full of anticipation.
Shen Long nodded and took the ores.
He picked up a cyan porcelain bottle and passed it to Liu Yuruo, who thanked him profusely, took the cyan porcelain bottle, removed the stopper, and poured out several Qi Nourishing Pills, which were bright in color and plump in shape.
Liu Yuruo’s face lit up with joy, put the Qi Nourishing Pills back into the cyan porcelain bottle, and left the place.
Shen Long continued to flip through the Thousand Herbs Scripture as Qi Refining Cultivators came from time to time to exchange first-tier elixirs with him for Spiritual Medicine or ores and Spirit Wood.
As long as the items were fine, Shen Long agreed to the exchange.
As the sky gradually darkened, Shen Long took out two Moonlight Stones, whose soft white light emitted from the stones illuminated the whole stall.
“Taoist Friend Shen, selling elixirs again?”
A cheerful male voice rang out.
Shen Long looked up to see a broad man in black robes standing before him, emanating a strong murderous aura, with brown blood stains on his clothes.
“Taoist Friend Ye, long time no see.
Where is Taoist Friend Lin?”
Shen Long greeted with a smile.
The man in the black robes was named Ye Hong, a Middle-Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
He was the leader of a Monster Hunting Team, with Lin Guang, Su Nan, and Yu Susu all going out with Ye Hong to hunt Monster Beasts.
The Monster Hunting Team consisted of seven members, six at the early stage of Foundation Establishment and one at the middle stage.
Shen Long often bought second-tier Monster Beast Demon Cores from them and sold them Yellow Apricot Pills and Heyuan Pills.
“We ran into a bit of trouble.
Taoist Friend Lin got injured and has gone back to heal.
Taoist Friend Shen, I have a second-tier Pill Formula.
Would you be interested?”
Ye Hong took out a green Jade Slip and handed it to Shen Long.
Shen Long took the Jade Slip, scanned it with his Divine Sense.
A detoxifying elixir.”
Shen Long nodded and asked, “Please name your price, Taoist Friend Ye.”
“I would like four bottles of Yellow Apricot Pills.
How does that sound?”
On the market, one Yellow Apricot Pill was worth fifty Spirit Stones, ten in a bottle for five hundred Spirit Stones, so four bottles would be two thousand Spirit Stones.
This price was already quite cheap, and since a Pill Formula could be sold multiple times, Ye Hong would not stand to lose.
After some contemplation, Shen Long agreed.
Having known each other for so long, this was the first time Ye Hong had sold a Pill Formula to him.
Shen Long figured it must be a recently acquired Formula.
Connecting that to the ‘bit of trouble’ Ye Hong mentioned, Shen Long guessed that he and his team must have fought with other Foundation Establishment Cultivators, defeating them and acquiring the Pill Formula.
Ye Hong’s face showed delight as he took the four yellow porcelain bottles and after some casual conversation, he left.
A fragrance drifted by, and a beautiful woman in her thirties clad in a green dress approached Shen Long.
The woman in the green dress was stunningly beautiful with snow-like skin.
She wore a spirit beast bag and a Corpse Nourishing Pouch around her waist.
“Taoist Friend Shen, there’s a gathering later, and Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Yin Corpse Sect will attend too.
The woman in the green dress asked enthusiastically.
Qin Yuwei, she was from the Qin Family which was a Cultivator family affiliated with the Yin Corpse Sect.
In the past two years, Shen Long had become acquainted with many Foundation Establishment Cultivators, including both Loose Cultivators and those from families.
Shen Long exclaimed in surprise.
“In half a quarter of an hour, I too received the invitation at the last minute.”
