The success of the first talisman gave Gu Hong great confidence.
The two continued to make talisman paper, but almost a year had passed, and the cost was huge, and Gu Hong's spiritual stones were a little exhausted.
After all, it was too expensive to buy materials for making second-level talisman paper. She spent thousands of spiritual stones to make one.
Adding to the initial investment in talisman pens, her financial resources were stretched.
For this reason, Li An took out another thousand spiritual stones to help.
After all, he had made a lot of money from the second-level talisman pen and the incomplete talisman inheritance.
Gu Hong was extremely grateful for this.
In a blink of an eye, another half a year had passed.
One and a half years had passed since the two years agreed by Li An and Gu Hong.
"Finally all succeeded--"
Looking at the four talismans in her hand, Gu Hong's eyes were full of emotion and satisfaction.
Hard work pays off.
"Daoyou Li, I will go to Yunhuan Mountain Range. Two years ago, I have already found the traces of Yuanhun Beast."
Gu Hong opened her mouth and looked at Li An, with a hint of expectation in her eyes: "I wonder if you can go with me?"
After two years of living together day and night, many charming and ripples have arisen between the two, but Li An is determined and just treats it indifferently, and Gu Hong is also proud of herself, especially since she was imprisoned by the demon cultivator for many years and used as a furnace, hurting her body.
So the two seem to have no distance, but there is always a layer of paper between them.
This is also the reason why she invited Li An to go with her. From the perspective of cultivation, Li An is only at the sixth level of Qi training, which is of no use to her.
But inexplicably she would feel more at ease.
"With low cultivation, if I go to Yunhuan Mountain Range, I will not only be unable to help, but also drag down Daoyou Gu Hong."
Li An refused.
He was unwilling to take risks.
The Yunhuan Mountains are very famous in Dali. Many cultivators will enter them for trials and look for opportunities, but there are also dangers.
"Well--"
Gu Hong nodded, "I will go back to Cuiyue Valley first. It is expected that it will take a few months before I go to the Yunhuan Mountains. If Fellow Daoist Li changes his mind during this period, you can come to me at any time."
"Fellow Daoist Li, I haven't repaid you for saving my life in the past, and I owe you another favor today..."
Li An smiled, "Why should we talk about this between you and me."
Gu Hong smiled and nodded, and left without saying anything else.
After she left.
Li An began to retreat!
He can already break through the seventh level of Qi Refining.
A large number of spirit stones were placed in front of him, and he took out a pill-Yuanling Pill!
Yuanling Pill is a first-grade pill, stronger than Chongling Pill, and is used to break through the late stage of Qi Refining.
This pill alone cost four hundred spirit stones.
His cultivation in the past few years was all thanks to the 3,500 spiritual stones he got from Chen Cheng. Otherwise, even if he could sell first-grade top-grade talismans, he would still not be able to make ends meet.
Buying molten gold liquid, special poison liquid, talisman paper, talisman pen, elixir, etc., each of which is very expensive.
Now he only has about 1,000 spiritual stones left.
Holding his breath, feeling the circulation of spiritual energy, the life seed in the dantian in his body, six leaves have stretched out, and the seventh leaf has also sprouted...
Take the Yuanling Pill!
Swallowing the essence into liquid, a large amount of essence hits the dantian. At the same time, a large amount of spiritual energy in the spiritual stone in front of him is quickly absorbed into the body-
...
Two months later.
Li An woke up, he took a hot bath, and felt comfortable all over.
"From now on, I will officially enter the late stage of Qi Refining-"
He looked calm and determined.
Sixty-one years old, Qi Refining Level 7, in fact, from the perspective of a normal practitioner, he has reached the ceiling of this life and it is difficult to make any further progress.
After all, after the age of sixty, the Qi and blood of the cultivators will go downhill.
But Li An is not worried. Ordinary Qi Refining cultivators, even at the peak of Qi Refining, can only live for two hundred years at most.
But he is only at the seventh level of Qi Refining now, and his life span is actually over two hundred years!
So, he is actually still very "young" and does not need to worry about the Qi and blood problem.
"The sensitivity of the spiritual root has finally exceeded 50 points!"
At the same time, he was also very happy. Under the slow change of the Yangming Zhuxian Jue, his spiritual root sensitivity reached 53 points!
It is comparable to Tan Qingxue, and it is no longer far from the yellow-level middle-grade spiritual root.
This is why he only spent two months in seclusion this time. The impact of spiritual root improvement on cultivation is fundamental.
"Golden Bone, Thunder Palm, and Cold Yin Finger are also small."
"Entering the late stage of Qi Refining, I can try to make a second-level talisman myself."
After entering the late stage of Qi Refining, the spiritual power of the cultivator will be greatly improved, and Li An's spiritual power is far beyond that of ordinary people. There was still some talisman paper left, so he took it out.
After constant practice, he was already very familiar with the Soul Calming Talisman and Thunder Talisman, so he chose these two talismans.
Calm down.
Ten days later.
He harvested two more Thunder Talismans and two Soul Calming Talismans!
Of course, this still consumed hundreds of second-level talisman paper, which made Li An very painful.
"Other talismans will have to wait for the time being..."
He couldn't help but sigh. Now he could only make these two runes, and the success rate was very low.
Unless there were other suckers to bear the cost, he would not be able to explore other second-level spiritual talismans in the short term.
"I can also practice formations..."
In addition to talismans, Li An also practiced formations in his previous life, and he turned over in the two great disasters in the market, so he attached great importance to formations.
In the late stage of Qi Refining, you can learn and make some low-level formations.
Li An went to the formation shop and bought a set of intermediate formations, which cost him three hundred spirit stones, as well as many formation materials.
This left him with only three or four hundred spirit stones.
In the next few days, Li An studied the formations while paying attention to the news of the sect and the surrounding demon cultivators.
"The demon cultivators around Xuanyang Sect suddenly disappeared. Is Xuanyang Sect sending people to investigate?"
That day, Li An received a letter from Tan Qingxue, which instantly aroused his vigilance!
For more than ten years, he has been on edge!
After all, if Xuanyang Sect is really attacked by Yin Yang Demon Cult, Li An will also be in danger.
When the nest is overturned, no egg will be left intact. Moreover, Li An also has the reputation of killing the life-seeking horse-faced demon. At that time, the demon cult will definitely target him.
He immediately inquired about various news about the demon cult in the market. Just buying news from various private trading markets cost more than two hundred spirit stones.
Finally, he got a general idea. A month ago, the people of the Demon Cult rarely appeared, and in the past few days, there was no trace of them at all!
The demon cultivators around Xuanyang Sect seemed to disappear together.
"Come so quickly?"
Li An frowned.
The Demon Cult must have made some moves, and Xuanyang Sect is also investigating, which may not be an attack on Xuanyang Sect.
But at least be prepared.
Li An thought about it and decided that he could not stay in the market any longer.
Retreat first!
He immediately wrote a letter to Tan Qingxue, asking her to strengthen her vigilance in the near future. After hesitating for a while, he asked Tan Qingxue to help him go to Liuyang River Market to buy some materials for making second-level talisman paper, and noted that Li An did not want others to know about this, so he asked her to go in person.
Li An did not lack materials, and the reason why he went to so much trouble was that he wanted her to leave the sect temporarily.
Although Liuyang River Market belonged to Xuanyang Sect, it was very close to another force - the Hundred Beast Sect.
If the Yin-Yang Demon Cult really attacked the Xuanyang Sect, they would definitely not attack Liuyang River at first, so as not to alert the Beast Sect.
And it would take at least ten days or half a month to gather the materials for the talisman paper there.
This was the only thing Li An could do to help her.
After sending the letter, Li An started thinking again.
He also had to find a place to hide...
After thinking for a long time, he sneaked out of the city gate, changed his appearance, and then rushed to Quyue Valley -
The only person he could trust now was Gu Hong.
