Chapter 119: Mid-stage Foundation Building

Gu Hong and Cai Chao were discussing the deal in secret. This situation has become Li An's basic practice in the past few years.

He would not touch the core and precious resources, but for other resources, such as talisman pens and talisman paper, array materials, spiritual medicine, etc., as long as he was interested in them, he would "intercept" them in this way.

The senior officials in the cabinet knew this very well, but no one said anything.

This is the benefit brought by background and relationship. Those who were caught committing crimes were just not strong enough in relationship.

"The middle stage of foundation building is perfect, and you can impact the late stage of foundation building..."

Li An looked at Gu Hong from a distance and took a sip of tea.

Gu Hong's progress in cultivation is still faster than Li An, but it has obviously slowed down.

Her qualifications are only yellow-grade middle-grade spiritual roots. It is already precious to be able to reach this step.

If there is no other opportunity, in this life, being able to reach the late stage of foundation building is the ceiling.

Jie Dan?

Very slim!

"Ask her to refine a longevity pill for me. The higher the grade, the better."

Li An waved his hand and gave Wang Zi an order.

He is now 141 years old, actually still very young. After all, with the advantage of the life-nourishing immortality casting technique, his life span has reached nearly 600 years, and he still has more than 400 years to live.

But for ordinary cultivators in the early stage of foundation building, more than half of their lives have passed.

He will need to stay in the Treasure Pavilion for a long time. If he does not die of old age or become weak later, it will definitely arouse suspicion.

Therefore, prepare the longevity pill in advance, and use it as a cover-up when the time comes.

"Okay!"

Wang Zi left immediately.

...

And at this moment.

"Report to the Pavilion Master, Zuo Cixi has someone take down two Qingling Pills. In addition, he also wants Gu Hong to help him refine a longevity pill..."

In a quiet room full of formations and antique fragrance, Cai'er is reporting to the Pavilion Master Qin Xuan.

Qin Xuan was lying on a bed, naked, with her face and every inch of her skin covered with "skin clothes" made of various skin-nourishing treasures.

After a long time, she finally got up and put on her clothes.

"Even this second-grade skin clothes doesn't have much effect on me. It's loose, ah..."

She sighed, "The prince has started to ask me to sleep with him less frequently recently."

She looked at herself in the mirror and lamented: "Serving people with beauty, beauty fades and glory ends... When I am really old, I will definitely be abandoned."

"What will happen to my son then?"

--Qin Xuan was married in her early years and gave birth to a son named Guo Ling. However, her husband died unexpectedly at that time, leaving her a pretty widow. Her life was difficult. Fortunately, she was so beautiful that she was favored by the prince, and she has what she has today.

Now, Guo Ling is nearly a hundred years old and works as an ordinary treasure appraiser in the Treasure Pavilion.

After senior treasure appraisers Zhou Ying or Mo Rong withdraw, she will push Guo Ling to become a senior treasure appraiser.

But this is not enough...

Her goal is to be the chief!

She knows that relying on her own wealth and glory is not a long-term solution. Her son does not have her advantages and cannot get the complete trust of the prince, so it is impossible for him to inherit the position of the Pavilion Master.

The best future she can arrange for him is the chief treasure appraiser!

So, from now on, she has been planning.

Clear the obstacles!

She doesn't care about others, but this Li An...

He has connections in the palace!

So she is quite concerned.

"If you break through to the middle stage of foundation building and successfully extend your life, the threat to my son will only be greater..."

She is a little worried.

But for a while, she still can't find a good way to deal with Li An.

...

In the evening.

Li An got two Qingling Pills.

After activating the second-level formation of the guardian, he swallowed them directly, and then attacked the middle stage of foundation building-

...

Three months later.

Li An walked out of the quiet room where he was in seclusion.

His aura has changed, and he is more reserved. Although he looks old, he has a sense of being out of the world.

The middle stage of foundation building, it's done!

With a sweep of his spiritual sense, everything within a five-mile radius of his residence is in his mind.

"The range of spiritual sense reaches five miles!"

This makes him very satisfied.

Generally, the spiritual sense of the middle stage of foundation building is only about one mile, and the best ones are no more than two miles.

He doubled it directly!

This is a huge advantage in fighting, escaping, etc., to detect the enemy first.

"The second branch of the life seed has also taken shape..."

Breaking through to the middle stage of foundation building did not make his life seed grow a second branch, but only a small bulge, as if a bud was about to emerge from it.

At the beginning, his first branch was obtained when he broke through from Qi Refining to foundation building.

The branches of the life seed are very important to him, and can strengthen different parts of the body one by one!

"In addition, the Dantian pool has also expanded three times, and the spiritual power is barely enough for me to practice the unique skill "Sanyuan Zhan"..."

"Sanyuan Zhan" is the strongest offensive skill he had in his previous life. It only has three styles, but it is extremely powerful and the grade is as high as the upper grade of Xuan level!

In his previous life, he started practicing after entering the Jindan stage, because the spiritual power and physical strength of the foundation-building stage could not support the needs of Sanyuan Zhan.

However, he decided to start practicing from today, because this is his trump card to deal with future dangers.

Practice repeatedly, and try to exert some power of Sanyuan Zhan in the foundation-building stage...

"The poison of Hanyin Finger can't be resisted even in the middle stage of foundation-building. It's a pity that it still doesn't pose a threat to Jindan cultivators..."

He glanced at his hand, and azure blue flashed by.

If he could find a third-grade poison and refine it in his hand, it might be useful for Jindan cultivators.

However, this cannot be forced. Third-grade elixirs are extremely rare, and the poisons in them are even rarer.

"In addition to Sanyuan Zhan and Hanyin Finger, the body refining must also be continuously advanced. After the Iron Tree Art is completed, the Golden Cang Art can be practiced."

The Golden Cang Art is a step further than the Iron Tree Art, and it refines the internal organs of the cultivator!

The Golden Cang Art is a fragment that Li An accidentally obtained in his later years in his previous life. The grade is ominous, but Li An speculates that even if it is a fragment, it is at least a treasure of the upper grade of the Xuan level.

If it is a complete scroll, it is unimaginable, at least it is of the earth level!

Moreover, he has carefully checked that the Iron Tree Art and the Golden Cang Art seem to be the body refining methods of a certain great sect. After the Golden Cang Art, it is very likely to be... the Golden Body Art!

The Golden Body Art is very famous in any place where the fire of cultivation is more prosperous. It is said to be of the highest grade!

The fragment of the "Golden Cang Jue" in Li An's hand can only cultivate three parts: heart, kidney, and stomach.

Even so, the resources for cultivating these three parts are also inexhaustible. Even though Li An had the support of a cultivation family in his previous life, he could only barely cultivate one kidney.

"Sanyuan Zhan and Jinzang Jue are long-term plans..."

"At present, I still need to practice some powerful spells for self-defense."

"The "Earth Evil Seventy-two Steps", a middle-grade Xuan-level, body-movement spell!"

"The "Five-color Flower Explosion Spell", a low-grade Xuan-level, wood-based attack spell, can use wood-based spiritual power to transform into five-color flowers, which will float and explode everywhere, and I can also give them poison to increase their power!"

Li An decided to practice these two first.

...

In the blink of an eye, another five years passed.

Li An is already 146 years old. "Next month, there will be a treasure in the pavilion, which needs to be auctioned in Baihu City--"

That day, the pavilion master Qin Lan and the palace steward Jiang Cheng came in person and called Xu Changkong, Li An, Mo Rong, and Zhou Ying.

"This auction is extremely important, and it must be presided over by a treasure appraiser of the second-class level or above."

Qin Lan said, "Which of the four of you can go?"

They looked at each other.

Second-class treasure appraisers are the core of the Treasure Pavilion.

They usually don't go out!

What kind of treasure would be so important?

"It's okay to tell you, it's a fourth-grade residual medicine."

The palace steward Jiang Cheng said lightly.

Hearing this, they were all shocked!

Fourth-grade spiritual medicine!

Things of this level can be said to be extremely rare. Generally speaking, they will not flow into the market at all.

Because fourth-grade spiritual medicine is useful for Yuanying strongmen, and Jindan cultivators are even more eager for it!

How could the Treasure Pavilion put such a thing up for auction?

Li An frowned even more, and he instantly thought that the palace was the headquarters of the Yin-Yang Demon Cult!

And the White Tiger True Man of White Tiger City is now a powerful golden elixir.

Could this medicine be another plot of the Demon Cult?

Is the Demon Cult still planning to plot against White Tiger City and White Tiger True Man?

Several people thought for a long time, and Xu Changkong spoke first: "I am already very old... I am afraid it is difficult to do such a thing well."

He declined politely.

Because the risk is too high!

If the news of the fourth-grade spiritual medicine spreads, who knows what strong people will jump out to fight for it, and even kill people to rob treasures, etc., and he is already the chief, and there is no chance to go further, so there is no need to take risks.

Zhou Ying and Mo Rong shook their heads and were unwilling to participate at all.

There is no other reason. Even if they succeed in this matter and make great contributions, they may not be promoted to the chief - Li An, a relative, is here!

"Second seat left?"

Qin Xuan looked at him slowly, "It seems that I have no choice but to ask you to go to White Tiger City——"
