#487 - Soul-shaping clay, blood exchange

“Soul-shaping clay, is there a disciple who can actually find this thing?”

Lu Qing looked at the spiritual objects recorded in the booklet with surprise.

"This was discovered not long ago in a remote state. A small secret realm was opened and a disciple went in to explore. This was obtained by chance.

The disciple did not know the use of this spiritual mud, but just thought it was strange, so he offered it in exchange for credit. "

The First Holy Lord explained.

"So it was obtained in the secret realm, no wonder." Lu Qing suddenly realized.

He said, how can a spiritual object like Soul-Shaping Clay be found easily?

But if it is a secret realm, then it can be explained.

The secret realm is one of the most powerful opportunities in this world, and it is the most capable of producing all kinds of magical wonders.

"Three seniors, I would like to exchange this soul-shaping clay. Is it possible?" Lu Qing said immediately.

"Of course you can. Little Daoist Brother Lu, your contribution is the greatest in the Holy Mountain. No matter what spiritual object you want to exchange for, it's up to you."

The First Saint Lord nodded directly, and then asked curiously: "Little Daoist Brother Lu wants this soul-shaping clay, do you want to refine a puppet Dharma body?"

"Yes." Lu Qing did not deny it, "The Third Saint Lord gave me a copy of the Puppet Sect's inheritance. I was quite interested in it and have always wanted to try to refine it.

It was just that I had to put it aside because I didn’t have the materials. I didn’t expect to see this soul-shaping clay today.”

In the inheritance left by the ancient immortal sect Puppet Sect, there are many kinds of materials that can be used to refine puppets.

But those spiritual objects are quite hard to find.

Therefore, Lu Qing never tried to refine a puppet body.

Until today I saw this soul-molding clay.

Soul-shaping clay is an excellent main material for refining puppet Dharma bodies, and it is one level higher than the materials used for the puppet Dharma bodies of the three holy masters.

If it is refined properly, the puppet body that is refined will definitely be very powerful.

"Then I'll have someone bring this soul-shaping clay over here later?" asked the First Saint Lord.

"There's no rush. I need to go out for a while now. I'll get the soul-shaping clay when I come back."

"Okay."

The First Saint nodded, but did not ask what Lu Qing was going to do.

In the holy mountain, Lu Qing has the most freedom in coming and going.

Even the three Holy Lords never asked about his whereabouts.

After bidding farewell to the three saints, Lu Qing turned into a stream of light, flew straight up to the sky, and headed towards the East China Sea.

It didn't take too much time before they arrived above the surface of the East China Sea, thousands of miles deep.

Lu Qing did not hide his breath, so when he arrived, the huge body of the old dragon turtle slowly floated to the surface.

"Senior Longgui, long time no see." Lu Qing said with a smile.

"I haven't seen you for nearly ten years. Fellow Daoist Lu's cultivation has become even more advanced."

The old dragon turtle sensed Lu Qing's breath and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Although it was also unable to see through Lu Qing's actual realm.

But as a once powerful soul, its intuition told it that Lu Qing had become stronger.

It even vaguely sensed a dangerous aura from Lu Qing.

It is obvious that Lu Qing's practice must have improved greatly in the past ten years and has reached a level that can threaten it.

"The human race is truly blessed by heaven. They are naturally weak, but when they truly practice, their strength increases much faster than that of us exotic beasts and spirit beasts."

The old dragon turtle couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It was the same in the previous era of cultivating immortals.

It practiced hard for more than 20,000 years before entering the realm of Yuanshen.

However, many geniuses of the human race can often achieve the primordial spirit after practicing for hundreds or thousands of years.

The speed of cultivation is much faster than that of their exotic beasts and spiritual beasts.

This is also the reason why the old dragon turtle did not get angry when Lu Qing asked for its bloodline.

In addition to the fact that the conditions offered by Lu Qing were attractive enough, it also did not want to make enemies with such a mysterious and potential genius.

"Senior Longgui, you said in the message that you are willing to trade with me. Are you serious?" Lu Qing asked at this time.

"That's right, of course the prerequisite is that what you use to trade is exciting enough to make me interested." The old dragon turtle said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, I won't let you down, Senior Longgui."

After Lu Qing finished speaking, he ejected a jade slip and it fell downwards.

The old dragon turtle caught the jade slip.

When he probed with his mind, he saw a small picture of the starry sky recorded inside, which was brilliant and dazzling.

“Senior Longgui, this jade slip contains a small star map, which I got from the alien I once killed.

What is recorded is the positions of the stars in many worlds outside.

The seniors have experienced the last era of cultivating immortals, so they should know this clearly.

For cultivators like me, once we step into the Yuanshen realm, it becomes extremely difficult and arduous to make further progress in our cultivation.

The reason for this is that the origin of our world is not strong enough, and it is difficult to breed strong people above the initial stage of Yuanshen.

Therefore, after entering the Yuanshen realm, if you still want to make a breakthrough, the best way is to leave this world and enter a more powerful world to practice.

Otherwise, if you just sit in this world, you will only encounter the catastrophe of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man and the exhaustion of spiritual energy once every tens of thousands of years.

But the starry sky is vast, and there are countless dangers and unknowns.

Without the guidance of a star map, even a powerful soul could easily get lost in the starry sky.

If you are willing to exchange, I will give you the star map of our world."

The old dragon turtle stared at the small piece of starry sky in the jade slip, listened to Lu Qing's words, and fell silent.

Especially what Lu Qing said about the cultivation of the Soul Realm, which shocked it deeply.

As an old dragon turtle that had experienced the rise and fall of an entire era of immortal cultivation, he naturally knew that what Lu Qing said was true.

During the heyday of the last era of cultivating immortals, it had already entered the realm of Yuanshen.

But after ten thousand years, until the end of the era of immortal cultivation, its cultivation level had made limited progress.

Because after entering the realm of Yuanshen, its practice becomes countless times more obscure.

It's like groping in the dark, and it's extremely difficult to make any progress.

And not only it, even the two humans in the Yuanshen realm that it knew had the same trouble.

For this reason, it also discussed it with the two humans in the Yuanshen realm, and the conclusion it finally came to was similar to what Lu Qing had just said.

The origin of this world cannot support them to break through to a higher level.

This makes their practice extremely obscure and difficult.

But what can they do if they don’t practice in this world?

In the last era of cultivating immortals, there were powerful souls who had tried to pass through layers of strong winds, break through the boundary membranes, and enter the starry sky to explore.

But I found that the vast starry sky was empty.

The vastness of the starry sky is far beyond imagination.

Without the replenishment of spiritual energy, they simply couldn't go very far.

As a result, one either returns empty-handed or gets lost in the starry sky and the soul lamp goes out.

This is also the reason why those human cultivators chose to refine the ship that could break through the world at the end of the last era of immortal cultivation.

Because it is difficult for an individual, even a powerful being in the Yuanshen realm, to survive in the starry sky.

The cultivators in their world knew very little about the vast starry sky.

It was for this reason that the old dragon turtle agreed to trade with Lu Qing when he heard that Lu Qing actually had a star map of the outside world in his hands.

If what Lu Qing said is true, then that star map is extremely precious.

Looking at the small piece of starry sky coordinates recorded in the jade slip, the old dragon turtle knew that Lu Qing had not lied to him.

It hesitated for a while, and finally spit out three jade bottles from its mouth.

“Inside this are three portions of true blood that I condensed.

According to what we agreed beforehand, we should be able to exchange the star map in your hand."
