Chapter 443: Resource Crisis, Agree to Join!
Two months later.
Lin Bei opened his eyes, felt the warmth in his arms, and couldn't help but smile.
He gently moved Luo Yiqing away and covered her with a thin quilt. He moved gently, for fear of waking her up.
"嘤~"
Luo Yiqing was still awakened by the soft sound. She opened her hazy eyes and half stood up. The smooth silk quilt slipped from her shoulders, but was blocked by the turbulence. She still held the pipa to half-cover her face.
"woke up?"
Lin Bei chuckled softly.
Luo Yiqing hummed, and generously lifted the thin silk quilt from her body, revealing her jade-like flawless body directly in front of Lin Bei.
Her long white legs were casually draped beside the bed. She bent down to pick up a pair of boots, put half-rolled white socks on her delicate feet, and started putting on shoes and dressing up.
Lin Bei watched quietly, enjoying the silent peace and happiness.
"Let me comb your hair."
Seeing that Luo Yiqing was already sitting in front of the bronze mirror, Lin Bei came behind her, grabbed the comb, and began to comb her three thousand black hairs as black as a waterfall.
"A few months ago, I heard that you appeared in Mingzhou, so I came to find you."
Luo Yiqing seemed to know that the short-term happiness was over. While enjoying Lin Bei's dressing up, she told why she appeared at the Mingzhou auction.
It turned out that Luo Yiqing came to Mingzhou specifically to look for herself.
Lin Bei was slightly surprised.
However, he was not surprised to know that he was in Mingzhou.
After all, he had revealed his identity several times, but no one knew his exact location.
So, with the mentality of giving it a try, Luo Yiqing hid her identity and came to the auction in Zhoucheng, Mingzhou.
Then, by mistake, he met Lin Bei, and by mistake, he got involved in this crazy operation of the two demon sects.
If Lin Bei hadn't been present, Luo Yiqing might not have been able to escape this time.
"You promised to help me forge a quasi-magical weapon!"
Luo Yiqing suddenly turned around, winked playfully, and said to Lin Bei in a half-joking tone.
Lin Bei smiled casually and said, "As long as you prepare the materials and site, I can start work at any time."
"actually."
Luo Yiqing suddenly lowered her voice and said: "You are now able to kill the most powerful masters. Your strength is also top-notch in Dafeng. You can definitely serve as a guest elder in Xuanyue Sect."
Lin Bei frowned slightly, sensing Luo Yiqing's intention to win over.
He was not disgusted by this, but fell into deep thought and began to weigh the pros and cons.
For this kind of thing, feelings need to be put aside first, and the pros and cons must at least be analyzed thoroughly.
Luo Yiqing was not in a hurry. Seeing him frowning in thought, she quietly waited for his reply.
"With my current strength, coupled with alchemy and casting skills, I don't have to worry too much about spiritual stones."
"However, there are almost no other sources of resources that can meet my current cultivation needs except the state and city auctions."
"The great medicines with four spiritual rings and above are already scarce, and the great medicines with seven spiritual rings are almost never put up for auction. They are kept by various martial arts masters and thousand-year-old families for their own use. It is rare to find them in auctions for decades. See."
Lin Bei went through the resources he needed and the resource channels he could obtain in his mind.
Before that, he had just entered the realm of a grandmaster. With his ability to fight back and pick up treasures with one hand, and his alchemy skills that were close to the master level, he could easily bid for the required training resources at the auction.
But now that his cultivation has reached the fourth level of True Spirit, the resources suitable for his cultivation that can be purchased with spirit stones have become scarce.
Perhaps he can still cultivate to the sixth level of true spirit by participating in auctions in various states, but the resources above are almost difficult to purchase with spirit stones.
There is no other reason. The auctions in Zhoucheng are basically controlled by martial arts sects and thousand-year-old families. Once any treasures that exceed the level are auctioned, they will spend spiritual stones to directly seize them without entering the auction.
As for whether the spiritual stones spent are equal to the value of the treasure, each family has different standards.
There are some dark-hearted people, maybe the depositor disappeared inexplicably just after depositing the treasure into the auction.
But there are some people who still have conscience and will even give spiritual stones that are higher than the expected price at the auction.
All in all, cultivation resources that have reached the ultimate master level rarely flow into auctions.
Even if Lin Bei was not short of money, he would not be able to compete with these aristocratic families.
"Perhaps I should indeed join a certain super force. With my alchemy skills, the treatment should not be too bad."
Lin Bei made a decision in his heart.
Since you want to join a certain force, it is naturally best to join a force that you are familiar with.
And the force he is most familiar with seems to be the Xuanyue Sect.
Lin Bei thought about this and said directly: "Now that my alchemy skills have almost reached the level of a master, I can hold the position of alchemist guest minister in Xuanyue Sect."
"However, I'm afraid I have to talk to your sect master about this matter."
Lin Bei didn't want to make fun of it and agreed casually.
Luo Yiqing is not qualified to promise the benefits he can bring to Xuanyue Sect and the resources he needs from Xuanyue Sect, given his current status and power.
After all, what he needs is a great master and supreme master-level training resources!
And his casting skills and alchemy skills are believed to be enough to make Xuanyue Sect pay for it.
"Okay! As long as you are willing to join the Xuanyue Sect, I believe the sect master will not be stingy about the conditions."
Luo Yiqing smiled, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes. She obviously didn't expect Lin Bei to respond so smoothly.
"If that's the case, then let's set off today?"
Luo Yiqing raised her neck, looked at Lin Bei, and asked.
Lin Bei lowered his head and looked at her reclining face. With a move in his heart, he leaned over and kissed her smooth forehead. Then he picked her up by the waist and quickly ran to the bed. He laughed and said, "That can't be done. Let's fight first." Three days and three nights, let’s talk about this later!”
"Disgusting~"
There was a lot of noise in the house, silk and satin were flying, and the quilt was stirring.
hold head high--
A dragon-like roar shook the sky.
Lin Bei and Luo Yiqing rode on the dragon and set off in the direction of Xuanyue Sect.
Xuanyue Sect is one of the seven major sects of Fengzhengdao, a true martial arts sect. The founder of the sect is a martial saint. Apart from the founder, there have been two martial saints in history.
But now is not the peak period. The sect has seven top masters and no martial saint is in charge.
Xuanyue Sect is located in Dafeng Bing Prefecture. There are two top powers in this state, namely Xuanyue Sect and Qingyuan Palace, both of which are major martial arts sects.
There are no thousand-year-old families in the entire Bingzhou.
The two of them rode the dragon and headed to Xuanyue Sect in a leisurely manner, occasionally stopping to rest along the way.
Luo Yiqing told Lin Bei about the history of Xuanyue Sect, as well as its current status, factions, etc.
Lin Bei listened carefully and understood the Xuanyue Sect better. He thought to himself: Fortunately, this sect is not a sect with internal and external troubles and constant fighting. Although there are fights between various factions, they are all within control.
The entire sect is fairly united.
The resources he possesses also make Lin Bei quite satisfied, so that his expectations for the future of becoming the Xuanyue Sect's Alchemy Master Keqing are not too bad.
