Chapter 170 Snow City Procurement

Hearing this, Xiao Lin was slightly stunned. He had been in the spiritual field for more than a month, and he had not seen this Master Tao yet.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lin's expression also became solemn, and Xiao Yishao directly pulled him towards the spiritual field.

Xiao Lin and his companions came to the spiritual field. Just as they pinched a water control spell and began to irrigate the spiritual field, a thick green escape light of seven or eight feet long shot from a distance. Almost in the blink of an eye, it penetrated the forbidden spiritual light on the spiritual field and appeared on a rock next to the spiritual field.

The escape light dissipated, revealing a charming and pretty woman. The woman looked about 27 or 28 years old. She was wearing a dark green long skirt, with fair skin and red lips under her nose. She was so tempting that any man would probably not be able to help but take a few glances.

Her hair was tied in a bun, and two silver hairpins were inserted diagonally in the bun. Her clear eyes were fixed on Xiao Lin and Xiao Yishao.

"Greetings, Master."

When Xiao Lin and Xiao Yishao saw the woman, they naturally did not dare to neglect her. Needless to say, Xiao Lin also guessed that this woman should be the Master Tao Lingtao whom he had not seen for a long time.

When the woman looked at him, Xiao Lin could not help but feel a chill on his back. It was not that he was afraid of this woman, but the majestic spiritual pressure on her body made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

"Hmm." After a while, the woman's nose floated out a sound, and her charming little feet wearing a pair of emerald green flower shoes moved lightly, and she came in front of the two people. The spiritual pressure on her body also disappeared without a trace, which made Xiao Lin secretly relieved.

"Master, have you been lazy during the time I was away?" After the woman glanced at Xiao Lin, she turned her eyes to Xiao Yishao and said lightly.

"Uh, this." Xiao Yishao, who was always eloquent, stuttered for a rare time, his face flushed red, and he obviously wanted to deny it, but he didn't dare to.

"Uncle Master, Xiao Lin is new here and doesn't know a lot of things. Thanks to Senior Brother Xiao for teaching me how to take care of the spiritual field. We will also water all the spiritual medicines regularly to ensure that they are safe." Xiao Lin, who was standing next to him, saluted the woman and spoke.

After a slight sigh of relief, the woman slowed down her tone: "Okay, stop bowing, you are Xiao Lin, right?"

"Yes."

The woman nodded, and then said: "There are still not many casual cultivators who can pass the test of the Dan Pavilion. It seems that you must have learned the art of alchemy when you were practicing outside."

"Reporting to Uncle Master, Xiao Lin did refine the Soul-Enriching Pill when he was practicing in the Immortal City, but due to his limited qualifications, the success rate was not high, probably only about 20%."

"Oh? A 20% success rate is already rare and precious. You can learn and comprehend the alchemy experience in my stone hall at will, and don't slack off."

"Yes, thank you Uncle Master Tao." Hearing this, Xiao Lin was naturally overjoyed. Before, Xiao Yishao asked him to watch various spiritual pill recipes in the stone hall, and he was still uneasy. After all, he had not received the approval of Uncle Master Tao. Now that he said it personally, he can naturally learn the art of alchemy with a legitimate reason.

This greatly changed Xiao Lin's impression of Uncle Tao. Although in the sect, due to various interests, mutual oppression and slander often occur, Uncle Tao gave Xiao Lin an impression of integrity and harmony.

"Follow me." Tao Ling said, and turned to walk towards the stone hall.

Xiao Yishao then secretly smiled at Xiao Lin, made a bitter smile, and then took the lead to follow.

Xiao Lin shook his head and followed with helplessness.

After entering the stone hall, Tao Ling sat cross-legged on a cushion in the stone hall, while Xiao Lin and Xiao Yishao stood in front of her, listening attentively.

After a while, Tao Ling said, "Although you are not my disciples, as alchemy boys, you can be regarded as half of my registered disciples in name. Therefore, once you leave this spiritual field, you can act as my registered disciples outside."

"I think that with the status of Wu Laozu in the sect, no one dares to provoke him easily. Although the road ahead for us cultivators is full of thorns, most people are struggling and cautious, but we are not cultivating the way of shrinking after all. We distinguish between gratitude and resentment and stick to our original intentions. Only in this way can we have a firm heart of Tao."

"Yes." Xiao Lin and the other two bowed together.

"Well, Xiao Yishao has been with me for three years, and he can probably understand my style of doing things. Xiao Lin, you are new here, and you will naturally understand it in the future."

"Yi Shao, how is the task of handing over the spiritual pills to the sect this year?" After a moment of silence, Tao Ling asked again.

"Well, reporting to Uncle Master, I have completed a small part, and the rest should be completed on time." Xiao Yishao was in front of Tao Ling, as if he had met his nemesis, and he spoke carefully.

"Then finish it as soon as possible. In addition, you can also let Xiao Lin share some of the work. After all, it is not enough to rely on your own understanding of the art of alchemy. Only through actual alchemy can you integrate it and improve the success rate of alchemy."

"Yes, Uncle Master, I originally planned to let Junior Brother Xiao start refining elixirs in a few days."

Nodding, Tao Ling said: "I may be away for one or two years this time. The cave was opened this time, and the five major sects collected some purple spirit flowers. The refining of the foundation-building pill was handed over to your uncle Wu, and your uncle Wu also pointed out that I should go to assist, so I will be away for a longer time this time."

"And during the time I am away, you must complete the annual alchemy task of the sect, and practice well. When I come back from refining the pill this time, I should be able to get a foundation-building pill for you, Yi Shao."

Hearing this, Xiao Yi Shao's face showed great joy, and he thanked him repeatedly. Xiao Lin beside him was also full of envy.

"You don't have to thank me. With your qualifications, as long as you can successfully build the foundation, you will definitely be able to worship under the Golden Pill Ancestor. Then we will be peers."

"Hehe, isn't this all Uncle Tao's hard work?" Xiao Yi Shao touched his bald head, smiling, and seemed to have regained his naughty personality.

"You also know that I'm struggling? If you had restrained your playful nature and studied the art of alchemy, you would have become an alchemist by now." Tao Ling rebuked helplessly, ignoring Xiao Yishao's embarrassed face, and turned to look at Xiao Lin again.

"Xiao Lin, your cultivation is still low. In addition to practicing the art of alchemy, you must not neglect your cultivation. You must work hard to practice."

"Yes."

Nodding with satisfaction, Tao Ling stood up: "Okay, that's all. The cultivation of the great way is important to yourself. You should take care of yourself."

After saying that, Tao Ling left the stone hall first. When Xiao Lin and the others came out of the stone hall, they could only see a flash of green light in the sky, and then disappeared.

"Hehe, now I can enjoy it for a long time."

Xiao Lin on the side was completely speechless.

In Xiao Lin's opinion, Uncle Tao Ling was also a hands-off boss. In Dancao Mountain, once you become an alchemist, in addition to enjoying several times more benefits every month, you also have to undertake some alchemy tasks of the sect.

There are more than 10,000 outer sect disciples in the Qi Refining Stage of Dancao Mountain. Even if half of them consume one Yunling Pill every month, that is 5,000 pills, which is still a terrifying number.

There are about dozens of alchemists in Dancao Mountain, but these alchemists will not waste their time on alchemy. They usually find a few alchemy boys to help them refine low-level spiritual pills such as Yunling Pill.

Tao Ling was willing to let Xiao Lin comprehend the art of alchemy in the stone hall, and naturally hoped that he could improve his alchemy skills as soon as possible so that he could share her monthly alchemy tasks.

However, these tasks were nothing to Xiao Lin. Although the consumption of low-level spiritual pills was very huge for a sect like Dancao Mountain, in the end, he only had dozens of Yunling Pills every month.

With Xiao Lin's current alchemy level, it would basically take two or three days to make this amount of soul-enhancing pills.

Of course, he would not really complete the alchemy task in just two or three days, but he was determined not to complete it until the last moment.

After Master Tao left, Xiao Yishao chatted with Xiao Lin for a few words, and then disappeared without a trace. Xiao Lin was used to it. After Xiao Yishao left, he returned to the stone hall and concentrated on studying the art of alchemy.

The recipes and alchemy experience in this stone hall are all about first- and second-level spiritual pills, but there are no third-level spiritual pills, but Xiao Lin also knows that he should not be too greedy.

It is extremely difficult to refine a third-level spiritual pill even in Dancao Mountain. Not to mention the difficulty of refining a third-level spiritual pill, the number of spiritual herbs for refining a third-level spiritual pill is also extremely rare in Dancao Mountain, which has spiritual fields.

The cultivation of third-level spiritual herbs requires a higher quality spiritual field. Through chatting with Xiao Yishao, Xiao Lin knew that the only spiritual field in Dancao Mountain that could grow third-level spiritual herbs was the one on the top of Qingdan Peak.

That spiritual field was the exclusive spiritual field of Tianyi Patriarch. Even if thirteen Jindan Patriarchs wanted to enter it at ordinary times, they would not be able to do so.

Xiao Lin actually understood it after a little thought. It would take at least three hundred years for third-level spiritual herbs to reach the age of refining spiritual pills. This cycle was too long. Even Jindan Patriarchs could not cultivate a few batches.

So in Xiao Lin's opinion, the only ones who could refine third-level spiritual pills were probably the three great alchemists in the sect. After all, the scarcity of third-level spiritual herbs would definitely limit the number of great alchemists.

Early the next morning, after irrigating the spiritual field, Xiao Lin went straight down Qinghuo Peak and left Dancao Mountain.

After leaving the range of the Dancao Mountain's mountain protection formation, Xiao Lin controlled the Seven Blades Slash and turned into a green light to fly towards the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

......

Three days later, Xiao Lin returned to Qinghuo Peak, exhausted. Although his face was a little tired, his eyes were full of excitement. In Xueling Immortal City, he cleared out the storage bags and items he got from the cave trial, except for a few useful ones.

These things were sold for more than 10,000 low-grade spirit stones, and together with the more than 6,000 low-grade spirit stones left by Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin's wealth once reached nearly 20,000 low-grade spirit stones.

But soon after, Xiao Lin started to make a big purchase. With his current status as an outer disciple of Dancao Mountain, he successfully purchased enough auxiliary spiritual medicines for refining the Five Elements Spirit Pill from more than a dozen shops.

What made Xiao Lin even more excited was that he also purchased more than a dozen seeds of Dust-Cleansing Grass from a shop that specialized in selling spiritual herbs.
