Chapter 107: Burning Incense in the Temple, Vermillion Bird External Pill (Second Update)

The golden lotus seeds helped to remove the shackles of spiritual consciousness, which undoubtedly relaxed the tense nerves of Li Qing and the other three.

They held it up to the light of the sky for about a quarter of an hour, until the light from the golden lotus disappeared.

Zhao Feng said happily: "I can use about 10% of my spiritual sense."

Li Qing put away the golden lotus seeds and felt it for a while. He found that he could use 15% of them. "Well, I am almost there too. I just don't know what other uses these lotus seeds can have after leaving the secret realm."

"Let's take care of the present for now." Guo Yuanji shook his head, and after searching the spiritual plant garden with everyone else, he headed to the next place.

In this way, after about half a day, they had searched the area indicated by the square signposts.

Unfortunately, the harvest was minimal.

"I wonder which great being was enshrined in this hall before?"

Li Qing took out a handful of incense from the table below the shrine, divided it into four portions and found that there was still one stick left.

This is an unnamed temple. The plaque outside is blank and the statues inside have been moved away.

But perhaps because of the incense offerings over the years, a strange fragrance lingered in the air. The four of them stayed there for a cup of tea and found that their spiritual consciousness had escaped by about 10%.

"Ah!" Zhao Feng suddenly screamed, covered his head, and squatted on the ground.

Guo Yuanji frowned and said, "Friend Zhao, what's wrong with you?"

Zhao Feng's teeth chattered as he pointed at the empty shrine: "God! There is a god watching us. I used my divine sense to scan it and was stabbed by Him."

The three turned around to look, but found nothing. With Zhao Feng's previous experience as a lesson, no one dared to offend with their spiritual sense.

Li Qing sensed the minor magical power of the Tianwei Gate and found that the talisman was still flashing, and he couldn't help but be certain.

He thought about it, took out two incense sticks, together with the one he had taken out alone, and was about to light them using his spiritual fire magic.

"Friend Li, isn't this a bit too reckless?" Zhou Luan was very cautious. "You must know that this god cannot be worshipped casually, and incense cannot be burned casually. Who knows who was enshrined in this shrine?"

Li Qing sighed: "I know this truth. But we have already searched this secret realm thoroughly."

"My fellow Taoists, time is running out. Since we can't find a way out, and that fellow Taoist is watching us from the dark, why don't we give it a try?"

Guo Yuanji quite agreed: "It is natural to burn incense in a temple." But he never mentioned asking himself to be the first to burn incense.

Zhao Feng covered his head weakly and said, "Burn it, burn it. There is no other choice."

Zhou Luan was once again unable to handle the situation on his own and had to acquiesce.

Li Qing separated part of his spiritual consciousness and placed it on the seal of the Tianwei Gate's minor magical power in case of an emergency. Then he used the minor magical power of spiritual fire to light the incense.

As a faint smoke filled the air, Li Qing came to the shrine holding three incense sticks, bowed three times solemnly, and then put the incense into the incense burner.

The moment the incense was lit, the diffuse smoke instantly gathered into a stream and flew into the shrine, as if a "god" was actively inhaling it.

Li Qing took a few steps back and watched the scene nervously with the other three people until the three incense sticks were all burned out.

The next moment, a statue of a boy suddenly appeared in the shrine.

The boy looked like one in a New Year picture, white and plump, with limbs like lotus root nodes and a smiling face dotted with cinnabar moles. He looked quite cute.

The only difference is that what the boy holds in his hand is not a ruyi, lotus or other auspicious treasures, but a jade hoe.

Before Li Qing could react, the jade hoe flew into his arms, jumped twice, and then became silent.

“Fellow Daoist Li, how did you get this jade hoe?” Guo Yuanji was slightly shocked. “Did I get it by burning incense?” Li Qing was stunned. “After burning incense, there was a boy statue in the shrine. Can’t you see it? This jade hoe was given to me by Him.”

Guo Yuanji and the other two shook their heads in unison, and then realized: "Maybe it's because we didn't worship the gods."

Seeing that Li Qing was fine, they did not delay any longer. They took out three sticks from the incense sticks they were allocated and lined up to burn incense one by one.

However, what is strange is that the statues of gods that appeared when people burned incense were not the same.

Guo Yuanji's was an image of a fisherman, who was blessed with an oar; Zhao Feng's was an image of a savage, who was given a torch; and Zhou Luan's was the most orthodox image of a mountain god, who was given a small seal.

Finally, the four statues began to emit red-gold light in turn according to their arrival.

A large ray of light enveloped Li Qing and the other three, and followed the path of true energy towards the spiritual platform.

"Buzz buzz buzz..." The picture of Taihao Palace kept shaking, and unknowingly, three more golden tiles appeared.

When the light faded, the map of Taihao Palace suddenly rolled towards Li Qing's consciousness, and in the dimness he could hear the sound of porcelain breaking.

"I can actually use 70% of my spiritual power."

He turned around and was about to check in with the others when the entire temple began to fade in and out of view.

The next moment, the temple and the entire square collapsed. He looked around and found that Guo Yuanji and others had disappeared without a trace.

He came to the children's square again.

This time, he chose the alchemy room.

Like the Spiritual Plant Garden, the alchemy room here is only a small one.

In the center is a furnace, in which a furnace of elixirs is still being warmed.

Around the alchemy furnace, there were seven cushions woven from spiritual herbs, one large and six small. On each cushion was a jade slip.

Li Qing glanced at the alchemy furnace and found that it was about to start, so he was not in a hurry and went to get the jade slip on the big cushion first.

However, there were restrictions on the jade slip, and Li Qing couldn't lift it at all. He could only vaguely see four words on the jade slip: "Yin Yang Alchemy Classic".

He then used his spiritual sense to read it directly, but was also blocked by the restriction.

"Forget it." Li Qing shook his head and turned to pick up the jade slip on the small cushion. "Hey, this one can..."

He used his spiritual sense to read it and found that it was a very exquisite alchemy method: the water and fire method. However, the person who recorded it did not express it clearly, so it was very difficult to understand.

He went to get another five jade slips, and there was no obstruction at all. After reading them with his spiritual sense, he found that they all contained extremely exquisite, but very irregular records of alchemy methods.

The most superior one among them is the method of refining an external elixir called "Suzaku Lihuo Dan".

After it is refined, when used against the enemy, I dare not say that it can match a true Jindan Zhenren, but it is almost impossible to find an opponent during the foundation-building period.

Li Qing took out a new jade slip, engraved the six alchemy techniques on it, and then put the other five jade slips except the "Suzaku Lihuo Pill" back.

Looking at the other one large and five small cushions, all of which had jade slips placed on them, except for one that was empty, he felt something was wrong, so he simply collected that cushion as well.

Just at this moment, with a "bang", the cover of the furnace in the middle was lifted up, and more than twenty pills splashed out from it.

Li Qing locked onto it with his spiritual sense, and scooped up the crane cloak he was wearing, "capturing" a small half of them.

When he tried to collect it again, it reappeared in the square the next moment.

(The update on Tuesday will also be moved to the evening. Good night everyone.)
