So Liu Ming took off the token from his waist without saying a word, and shook it over the jade box.
The token green light flashed down in his hand, and a cyan light shot out.
The gray ban on the jade box disappeared instantly, and the lid of the box opened slowly at the same time, revealing the contents in it.
A fist-sized piece of golden light, with some pitted spar on the surface.
Liu Ming carefully took out this spar and held it in his hand, only to feel a little bit icy, extremely hard.
Lifting the other hand, flicking his fingertips, a sharp sword aura shot out, but the moment it hit the surface of the spar, it disappeared in a flash, as if it had never appeared before.
After the golden spar absorbed this ray of sword energy, the golden light on the surface was faintly stronger than before.
Seeing this, Liu Ming nodded in satisfaction, then put the stone back into the jade box and put it in the Xumi-Jing in his hand.
After doing all this, he swept the identity token around his waist and found that there were only more than 10,000 points left in it, and he could only smile helplessly.
Although the contribution points in his hand were exhausted this time, he was naturally happy to obtain the materials for refining the body of the sword embryo so smoothly.
Then, Liu Ming left the hall here through the magic circle, and then hurriedly left the Taizhen Hall, stepping on the black cloud, and flew towards Zongneifang City.
At the moment, the main materials for refining the Yuanling Flying Sword have been found, and what is left are some of the more common auxiliary materials and the tools needed to set up the Starlight Magic Array.
Two hours later, when Liu Ming came out of Zongneifang City, in Xumi Jie, the auxiliary materials needed to refine the sword embryo were already prepared.
The Starlight Array is not too great in the Taiqing Sect. In addition to refining sword embryos, there are also schools in the inner gate that use starlight to practice exercises or refining pills.
Therefore, he also bought a set of array equipment from a shop that specializes in selling such array equipment.
But as to how to arrange it, Liu Ming's heart was completely lost.
After all, he is not proficient in the formations, so he can only arrange some simple temporary formations.
In addition to the layout of the Starlight Array is not easy, the key lies in the choice of timing and location.
Although Liu Ming said in the ancient books that he read at the time, there are detailed records of how to calculate the position of the stars to calculate the best location and time for the formation of the stars, so as to draw as much starlight energy as possible, but this is not easy to grasp in a short while. , It is much easier to spend some spirit stones or contribution points to ask a disciple who is proficient in formation to help.
After he made a plan in his mind, he immediately pinched the law decision, driving the clouds to the direction of the Profound Hall.
A quarter of an hour later, in the Xuandian, Liu Ming was talking with a deacon disciple who seemed rather kind-looking.
"I want to post a task here. Regarding the process, please give me some pointers." Liu Ming said to the deacon disciple.
"Oh, brother, you only need to clearly inform me of the specific content of the task, including the time, place and what needs to be done, and give the rewards of the task to this hall first. After the task is completed, we will reward you. For the person who completes the task. In addition, for each task published in the Profound Hall, a handling fee of 30,000 spiritual stones will be charged. If no one accepts the task for more than one month, we will refund the task reward to you, but the handling fee will not be refunded Yes." The deacon disciple slowly explained.
"Then there will be Junior Brother Lao. I want to invite a disciple who is proficient in the formation to set up a formation for himself that can draw the stars. The array equipment is already available. As for the reward... 6,000 points for contribution points, plus two One hundred thousand spiritual stones." Liu Ming said after a turn of his thoughts.
If it is a common law formation, it is estimated that it only needs to spend a few hundred, at most thousands of contribution points, or simply spend more than a hundred thousand spiritual stones to invite people.
However, the Starlight Array is quite special. Although it is not too advanced, there are not too many disciples who really study this type of Array, and only those who are quite proficient in the derivation of stars can use the Starlight Array with great precision. If the payment is not enough, I am afraid that no one is willing to take it.
Besides, he is in a hurry now, so he would rather give more contribution points and rewards at once.
So Liu Ming, under the guidance of the deacon's disciples, paid the contribution points and the spirit stone, then glanced at the inner list of the Profound Hall, and found that the task he had released appeared in the sixth row of the third row.
Looking back at the first five in the third row, most of them are assisting the task of killing some high-level monsters or finding rare materials together, and the contribution points and spirit stone rewards given are much less than Liu Ming.
Liu Ming immediately showed satisfaction, then turned and left the Profound Hall, driving the cloud towards the cave mansion.
After he returned to the cave, he directly entered the secret room, and while continuing to comprehend and explore the method of refining the body of the sword embryo, he waited quietly.
As a result, only two days later, he received a notification from the Profound Palace saying that someone had accepted the task he had announced, which made him feel happy.
In the afternoon, a golden light whizzed up and appeared outside of his cave in a flash, revealing the figure of a young man in a golden robe.
At this time, Liu Ming in the secret room of the cave mansion felt that someone was coming. Even though he was walking towards the entrance of the cave mansion, he couldn't help but lose his voice when he saw people outside the cave mansion.
"It's you"
The somewhat familiar young man in a golden robe in front of him was actually the mysterious young man Jin Tianci who made the limelight in the outer courtyard more than ten years ago.
But when he swept away his spiritual knowledge, he found that the young man was still in the late stage of the condensate state, and it seemed that he hadn't made any progress in his cultivation for more than ten years.
"Hey, I haven't seen him for more than ten years. Brother Liu has changed a lot. I heard that Brother Liu not only bravely entered the inner gate of the 36th floor of the Void Spirit Pagoda, but also killed the blood emperor and more than ten evil cultivators in one fell swoop. , And then smoothly advanced to crystallize with the body of the three spiritual veins, tusk, now everyone knows the whole inner and outer gates." Jin Tianci said hehe.
"Brother Jin is polite, and Liu is just lucky to have some chance. By the way, Brother Jin came today, could it be..." Liu Ming's expression on his face was quickly put away, and he humbled a few words and asked with some doubts. road.
"Yes, Brother Liu's task is to be taken under, so Jin will come here without telling you." Jin Tianci replied calmly.
"It turns out that Brother Jin is still an array mage. In that case, you and I will talk in the cave and talk about this array slowly." Liu Ming was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly made a gesture of asking inward, and said at the same time. .
Jin Tianci was not polite when he heard the words, and followed Liu Ming into the cave with a smiling face.
Not long after, in the hall, on either side of a stone table, the two sat facing each other.
"Brother Jin, Liu did not entertain him well, and I hope to forgive me for one or two." Liu Ming arched his hand toward Jin Tianci and said apologetically.
On weekdays, he only cares about cultivating, and he feels embarrassed that he is not even prepared for any spiritual tea in the cave.
"Haha, why should Brother Liu be so polite? Let's get to the point now." Jin Tianci waved his hand and smiled indifferently.
"Speaking of this matter, Liu received a subpoena from the Profound Hall in the morning, saying that someone had taken up the task posted next, but he didn't expect it to be Brother Jin." Liu Ming raised his eyebrows and said.
"Don’t be concealed from Brother Liu, you need to use the power of the stars to practice a certain secret technique underneath, so I’ve made a special study of this circle. If you and I cooperate this time, it will kill two birds with one stone. Brother Liu does not need to pay for spirit stones and contribution points. I only need to use this magic circle to let you use it." Jin Tianci said with a smile.
"So that's the case. I just need to use the power of starlight to sacrifice things. As long as there is enough time, then let Brother Jin use it, there will be no problem." Liu Ming agreed after thinking about it for a while.
He was a little worried that it would be difficult to find a suitable candidate in too short a time. In this way, not only would he be able to accomplish his own work, but also save some expenses, which was naturally extremely simple.
"Okay! I knew that Brother Liu was also a refreshing person, so that's it. It shouldn't be too late, how about we choose a suitable place for the formation now?" Jin Tianci heard the words, stroked his palms and laughed, and said Immediately got up and said.
"Xia Xia has this intention!" Liu Ming agreed without hesitation.
The two hit it off, Dang Even walked outside the cave.
In the open space outside the cave mansion, Jin Tianci flicked his sleeves and took out a square plate as large as a ruler, and entered a magic decision. At the same time, after calculating with his fingers, he was covered with golden light. , Galloping in a certain direction.
Seeing this, Liu Ming didn't ask much, and also raised his hand to release the small blue sword, which turned into a blue light to follow.
In order to find a suitable location, the two of them searched in Wanling Mountain for three or four days. Almost the entire Wanling Mountain was circled by the two.
As a result, at noon that day, when the two of them came to a place in the mountains to see the sky above a very deserted hill, the special array in Jin Tianci's hand finally buzzed.
"Okay, I finally found it!" Jin Tianci was pleased, and then the golden light all over his body fell down.
Seeing this, Liu Ming also pinched the tactics with one hand, and the blue light flashed down, and at the same time he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It was so difficult to find a suitable place for the formation, which was beyond his expectation.
It was just after midday and the scorching sun was blazing. After Jin Tianci looked around under the top of the hill, he briefly said a few words with Liu Ming, telling the starlight array to be arranged at night.
Hearing this, Liu Ming handed the formation equipment, a set of thirty-six golden flags to the opponent, and he found an open space for himself, sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and calmed down.
Jin Tianci naturally had no objection, and found a clearing area to meditate and adjust his breath.
A few hours later, when the sun set, moonlight filled the mountains, and the sky filled with nebula clouds, Jin Tianci in the corner suddenly opened his eyes and stood up. At the same time, a flash of light appeared in his hand, ready to begin. The magic circle is set up.
