196 Chapter 195-loyal

The so-called external elixir was something that was refined from the Golden elixir of others.

The demonic core of a fourth-order demonic beast was the worst choice, while the Golden core of other golden core cultivators was better.

But no matter which one it was, they were all extremely rare.

Each golden core represented the death of a Big Shot of the same level. How few golden core cultivators were there? For example, the Feiyun state was a small piece of land, and the death of anyone would be a major event that would shake the entire state.

Even if it was a Tier 4 demonic beast, there was no one in the Feiyun state. If he wanted to find one, he would have to go to the North barren forest. Every single one of them was a great Demon King that controlled an entire region. The Qingfeng sect would have to go all out to kill every single one of them. Furthermore, killing one of them was equivalent to poking a hornet’s nest. The demon kings of the northern wilderness forest would not sit by and watch as their comrades were killed.

It was extremely difficult for cultivators to obtain a golden core to make a breakthrough. Even Lu Qing did not receive such treatment in the past.

Li Yanling was really lucky.

With the external elixir in hand, the two major problems of breaking through to the Golden core realm would be alleviated by more than half.

After many years of refining the external elixir, it had already merged very well with Li Yanling’s own strength. After taking it and placing it in his dantian, he would have a golden core. He didn’t need to worry too much about compressing his spiritual power into a pill. He only needed to gradually guide his own spiritual power into this ready-made golden core.

Lu Qing watched as Li Yanling completed this step in about half a month.

After that, the second part was to extract true essence from the Golden core. This external elixir could also provide a great help.

The external elixir itself contained true essence. With this part of true essence as the seed, there was no need to start from zero to transform the true essence again, and the difficulty was suddenly reduced.

Of course, there were still difficulties.

This time, Li Yanling could be considered to have cut off all means of retreat.

The materials she had prepared for her breakthrough were worth more than 120000 spirit stones. Li Yanling only had about 30000 Yuan. She was actually a little poor. The last time she tried to break through to the Golden core stage, she spent a lot of money and was almost emptied out. After her breakthrough failed, she spent ten years recuperating from her injuries and had no way to earn money. Not long after, she received the external elixir and began to refine it, preparing for her second breakthrough.

During this process, she really didn’t have time to earn money.

Even this 30000 Yuan was the sum of money she had obtained by selling many magical artifacts and heavenly treasures.

The remaining 30000 were borrowed by some fellow disciples and would have to be returned in the future.

His master, hai Sande, had given her 30000 spirit stones. Initially, he had said that it was a loan. But later, the Lu clan, as her husband’s family, also took out 30000 spirit stones and said that there was no need to return it. Hai Sande could only pinch his nose and say that there was no need to return it.

According to the preparation of cultivators at the peak of the ninth level of the initial enlightenment stage, these spirit stones would be divided into two uses. The first was to buy all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures that could help one break through. There were many kinds and a lot of them, but the prices were generally not that high. The other was to buy all sorts of protective medicinal pills and treasures as a backup so that they wouldn’t lose their lives or have their futures cut off if they failed.

The ratio of these two elements was actually different for every cultivator. Those who did not have much confidence and were only taking a gamble would invest more in the latter. The iron-headed ones would invest a lot in the former, and often ended up in a miserable state.

The last time she had broken through, Li Yanling had chosen a steady and steady method, which was a 50 – 50 split. But this time, with the help of the external elixir, and after failing once, her attitude was much more determined. Almost all of her investments were in the latter. She had even considered that with the external Elixir’s help, it would not be difficult for her to pass the first stage. Therefore, most of her resources were used on the second stage.

The pills and treasures she bought were mostly things that could help her better transform spirit power into true essence.

Her investment in this area had paid off. historical

When she was transforming her true essence, she had taken some medicinal pills, and the effect was very good. A few special heavenly treasures were also of great help.

Lu Qing had come to visit Li Yanling a few times, and he would find her progress to be very gratifying every time.

According to this trend, she would have no problem breaking through to the Golden core stage.

Then it’s settled.

......

Half a month later, before Li Yanling’s golden core could break through, something happened outside.

Hai Changsheng had always been trying to gain control of the trade between the sea and land forces. If this could be achieved, the resources and benefits that the Lu family could earn would be far less than their hai family.

The hai clan’s base camp was in Dong Hai County, and they were the local tyrants. However, whether they took the trade route from the land to Ji Nan or the sea to Liao County, they could not bypass Dong Hai County.

This was also the reason why Hai Changsheng had been jumping so happily, and why Hai Sande had been supporting him from behind.

However, his actions made many people unhappy, even some of the hai clan cultivators.

Liang side was one of them.

The ninth-tier foundation building cultivator, Liang Dade, was hai Changsheng’s junior Brother. Even though his surname was not hai, he was still a cultivator of the hai clan. He was almost 170 years old this year, and there was not much time left before the end of his life as a foundation building cultivator. Moreover, the speed of his cultivation progress was only so-so, and he was afraid that he would not have the chance to break through for the rest of his life.

After Yang Xiang’s death, the position of Chairman of the Husheng Merchant House was vacant. He had originally been in the middle and upper levels of the Husheng trading company. After the Husheng trading company had been purged, he, as a member of the hai family, had been temporarily replaced as the acting president.

Hai Changsheng’s original intention was for his Junior Brother, who was more familiar with the work of the trading company, to do a good job and first control the trading company as a transition, so that it would be convenient for other cultivators of the hai family to take over in the future.

However, just two days ago, Liang Shide had publicly contacted many people and publicly expressed his dissatisfaction at an internal meeting of the Husheng trading company.

“Senior brother Changsheng is really too much! Who couldn’t tell that he wasn’t doing this for the sect, but for the benefit of their hai family? Killing Yang Xiang earlier to get rid of the scum in the sect was indeed good, but to take the original trade route of the sect to the hai family was simply a dream! This matter was absolutely not feasible. If the Husheng trading company really gave up this trade route, they would be the sect’s sinners! As the chairman of the business Association, I strongly object to giving up the trade route.”

Lu Qing was not present at the time. However, when he found out about this later on, his first reaction was that this fellow had been bribed by the sect leader.

However, after personally monitoring him for a few days, he realized that Yingying seemed to have judged a gentleman with her own mean measure.

“This guy Yingluo really seems to be a loyal member of the sect. He really doesn’t want the sect’s business to be divided into the subsidiary families. Yingluo, even if it’s Grandmaster’s family, it’s not allowed.”

Lu Qing would not have any prejudice against such people.

Loyalty was always a good quality.

However, in terms of position, Liang Dade could be considered an enemy.
