Demon's Diary-Novel

Chapter 1232: Cold Abyss Incense

Liu Ming shouted a few more times. Seeing that there was no response in the mysterious space except for the billowing gray mist, he could only shake his head helplessly.

A moment later, the door of the secret room was pushed open from the inside. A figure in green robe flashed out from it.

Qian Rupin was waiting not far away. When she saw Liu Ming suddenly appearing and looking at her with a half smile, she was slightly taken aback. She said joyfully,

“Brother… Brother Ming, you have successfully broken through the bottleneck!”

Seeing Liu Ming’s spirited appearance, Qian Rupin naturally guessed it.

“It’s been a long time for you. By the way, your cultivation has reached the Condensation Period perfect stage. You can try the Crystallization Period. I’m going out for a while. We’ll talk about it when I come back.” Liu Ming seemed to suddenly think of something, and he raised his eyebrows and said.

Hearing this, Qian Rupin immediately pursed her mouth and said nothing more.

Liu Ming looked at Qian Rupin’s well-behaved appearance, smiled slightly, and flew out of the cave house.

After about 15 minutes, at the Linhai Avenue in the east district.

Liu Ming looked at the giant blue tree building that was crowded by cultivators of various races in front of him, and his eyes flashed. He stepped forward.

Since Blue Wood Firm started selling cold condensing pills and yun spirit pills, the business had been booming. He had passed by a few times before, so he was no stranger to the scene.

After showing the blue wood token, Liu Ming walked into the private room on the second floor familiarly.

According to what the second shopkeeper of Blue Wood Firm said, Lan Si should be arriving soon. Liu Ming sat down at the octagonal table in the room, closed his eyes and meditated.

Not long after, with a creaking wooden door, Lan Si walked into the room with a smile on his face.

“Mr. Liu, I rushed over immediately after receiving your message.” Lan Si smiled when he saw that Liu Ming was already sitting at the table.

“Fairy Lan, thank you for coming. I actually have something to ask you.” Liu Ming opened his eyes and said.

“Mr. Liu just has to ask. As long as I know about it, I will tell you without hiding.” Lan Si showed a hint of doubt, then asked after sitting down opposite Liu Ming.

“Since that’s the case, I’ll just say it straight. Does Fairy Lan knows any auxiliary means in this Savage Wild Continent that can help advancing to the Celestial State?” Liu Ming asked.

“Mr. Liu has cultivated to the Real Pellet State perfect stage so quickly?” Lan Si said in disbelief with a startled expression.

Liu Ming stroked his chin and nodded calmly.

Lan Si’s expression turned uncertain. After a while, she replied with a wry smile,

“Brother Liu, I’m only at the Real Pellet State early stage. I’m afraid I don’t know much more than you about the matter of turning the primodial spirit into an aspect. However, the seniors in the family may have some experience, but I need to ask first. In addition, I will also give orders to the Blue Wood Firms scattered throughout the Savage Wild Continent to see if we have what Mr. Liu needs.”

“Then I will trouble Fairy Lao. Speaking of it, advancing to the Celestial State requires a lot of opportunities. As for the auxiliary items to break through to the Celestial State, they are even rarer. I’m a little too eager.” Seeing this, Liu Ming said with a satisfied expression.

“How about this? Brother Liu will come here in half a month, and I will give you an answer no matter whether I can get any relevant news. In addition, I have something that will definitely interest you.” After thinking for a while, Lan Si agreed without hesitation. Then, she changed the subject.

“Oh, what’s the matter?” Liu Ming was a little surprised.

“It’s a coincidence that this morning, our scouts reported that they had found the trace of the Qing Ling Race. I wanted to find an opportunity to go to your cave house to inform you myself, but I didn’t expect Brother Liu to come here first.” Lan Si smiled slightly Said.

“Serious? You really did me a big favor.” Liu Ming was overjoyed when he heard that.

Lan Si flicked her sleeves, and an animal skin map appeared on the wooden table. There were dense marks on it.

It was the map near the Luo City.

Lan Si didn’t explain too much. She directly tapped the blue mark somewhere and said seriously,

“The name of this place is Black Prison Mountain Range. As far as I know, the Qing Ling Race lives in seclusion deep in this mountain range. It is only a month away from Luo City.”

“If that’s the case, shall I visit now?” Liu Ming naturally wouldn’t worry about what Lan Si said was false, and he said without hesitation.

“Hehe, Brother Liu is really impatient. Speaking of which, the Qing Ling Race has always been avoiding other races. If you insist on going alone, you may not only get nothing, but you may even be attacked by them. It’s a coincidence that our patriarch happens to entrust me to go to Qing Ling Race for something, but we have to wait for half a month. When the time comes, you and I will go together, how about that?” After thinking for a while, Lan Si actually said so.

After Liu Ming listened, he revealed a hint of hesitation. But after a while, he nodded and said,

“No problem, then there I will trouble Fairy Lan. I still have some things to deal with, so I will leave first. See you in half a month.”

…

After Liu Ming came out of Blue Wood Firm, he didn’t go back to Little Huan Courtyard’s cave house directly. Instead, he walked along Linhai Avenue and started to browse various shops here.

In the next half a month, he went out at sunrise and returned at sunset. He shuttled between the streets and alleys of Luo City, searched all kinds of black markets and participated in some information exchange gatherings through various channels.

The hard work paid off. After spending a lot of money, he finally found a treasure that was quite effective in breaking through the Celestial State.

The name of this thing was Cold Abyss Incense, but it was actually a kind of spice condensed from the brain of the beastkin cold incense whale. This kind of spice could greatly reduce the influence of the mind demon on oneself when comprehending the nature aspect. Its value was self-evident.

The cold incense whale lived in the deep sea, and its number was extremely rare, and this beastkin itself had a talent, which could easily turn its body into a nearly transparent existence in sea water, making it difficult to be found.

However, this beastkin had very strict requirements on where to live. It was not easy to find a suitable place to live. Generally speaking, only when it foresaw a fatal danger in advance, it would use its talent to leave quietly.

It was a great opportunity for ordinary cultivators to see this thing with their own eyes, let alone capture it.

After knowing this information, Liu Ming was not going to find the whereabouts of the cold incense whale himself as he didn’t want to spend too much time looking for it.

Half a day later, at the northern edge of Little Huan Courtyard, Liu Ming stood on a huge square. There was a two-story building standing at the east side of the square.

In front of the door, a 30 meters tall white jade stone pillar was erected. There were 2 ancient characters “Tong Zhan Pavilion” written on it.

The so-called Tong Zhan Pavilion was actually just a place organized by the human cultivator of Little Huan Courtyard. They could post some missions or request some spiritual materials. Of course, the posters also needed to pay some corresponding rewards. It was similar to Taiqing Sect’s Xuan Hall.

After staying here for so many years, even though Liu Ming didn’t go out very often, from time to time there would be some human cultivators who come to visit him in groups of three or two. Therefore, during the conversation, he gradually became familiar with the various areas of Little Huan Courtyard.

At this moment, there were not many cultivators present in the lobby on the first floor of Tong Zhan Pavilion. A middle-aged man in a purple robe in charge of care was sitting cross-legged behind a dilapidated desk, closing his eyes and meditating.

Liu Ming glanced at the hall. On a large jade disc in the center of the hall, rows of small words appeared. Upon closer inspection, they were the published missions.

After a few glances, he went straight to the middle-aged man in a purple robe table beside him.

The middle-aged man in a purple robe immediately opened his eyes and stood up as if he could see that Liu Ming’s cultivation was not low.

“Is senior going to issue a mission?” The middle-aged man in a purple robe said with a smile.

“Yes.” Liu Ming nodded.

The middle-aged man in a purple robe saw that Liu Ming didn’t seem to want to talk much, so he hurriedly took out a palm-sized jade board and said in a rather respectful tone,

“This is the publish plate. Senior only needs to write the mission content on it.”

Liu Ming took the jade board, waved his fingers, and wrote the mission of finding the cold incense whale on it in a blink of an eye.

The middle-aged man in a purple robe took the jade plate and looked at it, then he looked at Liu Ming with a look of horror.

He didn’t say much, took out a jade plate and tapped it a few times on the jade board. A light flashed on the jade disc in the hall, and a line of small characters immediately appeared on the top. It was a new mission.

Look for the traces of the adult cold incense whale. The reward was 5 million spirit stones!

“Senior, please also leave the location of your cave house. If anyone provides clues, I will contact you immediately.” The middle-aged man in a purple robe became more awe of Liu Ming.

Liu Ming gave the position of his cave house and soon left Tong Zhan Pavilion.

For the Tongzhan Pavilion in Little Huan Courtyard, he actually didn’t have much hope. He was just trying his luck.

As soon as Liu Ming left the hall, a figure appeared in the corner of the hall. It was a young man in a green taoist robe. It was Yan Qing who had visited Liu Ming at the beginning.

Yan Qing looked at the mission posted by Liu Ming on the jade disc in the lobby, then he looked in the direction Liu Ming left. He seemed to be thinking about something.

Not long after, Liu Ming returned to the temporary cave house he rented.

The hall was quite quiet at the moment. Qian Rupin was staying in her secret room.

These days, Liu Ming especially left some elixir for her to help break through the bottleneck to the Crystallization Period. It wouldn’t be long before she could start trying to break through the bottleneck to the Crystallization Period.

The half-month period agreed with Lan Si came in a blink of an eye. Liu Ming immediately left for Blue Wood Firm.

As soon as Liu Ming arrived, someone immediately invited him to the inner hall on the third floor.

When he walked into the private room in the inner hall, he found that Lan Si was already sitting there.

However, sitting beside her was a beautiful young man wearing a red dress. His blood-colored hair was tied up high.
