What makes Guo Huai happy is that the lava essence fire can really refine the essence of metal, but the source crystal with such a high purity can only extract one essence.
After spreading this metal essence to the surface of the skin, Guo Huai poked it with his finger and found that there was indeed a significant change. Maybe different metals have different properties and different effects on the body.
Guo Huai tried source crystals from more than a dozen kinds of ores, and finally found that only ores with Western attributes such as black gold stone, red stone, lapis lazuli, and red copper essence could enhance defense.
So Guo Huai asked Zhao Ming to purchase a large amount of source crystals from this western ore for himself. Because it took time to find the source crystals, Guo Huai had to stop this practice.
Shortly after the New Year, Zhao Ming came to see Guo Huai with a smile on his face, "Good news! The envoy from Yuqing Palace is here! He is drinking spiritual tea in the living room!"
"Come on, let's go meet!"
Guo Huai knew that it was Wang Huai who had taken care of the naturalization of Yu Qingzong.
When the two came to the living room, they saw the elder of the inner sect chatting with the guests!
Guo Huai took a look and saw that the person who came was an acquaintance. It was Guo Huai who met the gatekeeper Jindan monk outside the mountain gate of Yuqing Palace.
Although so many years have passed, the monk's memory is quite good, and the two of them thought of each other the moment they looked at each other.
"Fellow Taoist, I haven't seen you for many years. How have you been these past years? Have you been practicing well?"
Guo Huai greeted first.
"Thanks to Sect Master Guo, everything goes well!"
The Yuqing Palace envoy did not expect that Guo Huai, who came to ask for help that year, was actually the head of the Yuqing Sect.
"Sect Master Guo, is your journey to immortality stable? Is your cultivation going smoothly?"
Guo Huai laughed and said, "Thanks to fellow Taoist friends, everything goes well for me too!"
After the two exchanged polite greetings, they sat down.
Guo Huai said with a smile: "I really didn't expect that my Taoist friend would be the envoy of the Shangzong this time. What a fate!"
Cao Chen was deeply impressed by Guo Huai. This boy was very good at getting things done. He received a red envelope of one million spiritual stones from him more than ten years ago.
I thought that if I reported the good news this time, the other party would not treat me badly.
Thinking of this, he felt better. Cao Chen said: "I came here mainly to announce the good news. The Yuqing Sect has officially joined the Yuqing Palace and become a branch of the Yuqing Palace. This matter has been included in the Yuqing Palace Yearbook."
As he spoke, he took out a gold and jade box from the space ring, which contained a scroll woven from Ice Sky silk, and handed it to Guo Huaihou.
"This is the inheritance scroll issued by the palace. From now on, this will be the proof of your Yuqing Sect's identity!"
Guo Huai opened it in public and saw that it not only contained the inheritance of Yuqing Palace, but also the identity information of the founder of Yuqing Sect, starting with the name of the current sect leader Guo Huai.
This can be said to be very detailed and is not just a random trick.
And it also has the seals of the Yuqing Palace Elders' House, the seals of the Zongren Palace, and the seals of the House of Internal Affairs Deacons, which are very formal.
"Envoy, thank you for your hard work coming all the way!" Guo Huai reached out and handed over the storage bag he had prepared in advance, which contained two million low-grade spiritual stones.
"A little thought is not enough respect!"
Cao Chen didn't refuse and accepted it happily.
Guo Huai chatted with the other party for a long time, had a meal with him, and arranged for the two elders to accompany Cao Chen around the Jade Qing Sect.
After sending Cao Chen off, the Yuqing Sect had a rare period of peace. Guo Huai came out of seclusion after practicing in seclusion for three months.
It is now approaching the middle of the year. Last year, he and Wang Huai made an agreement to explore the secret realm of the Grand Canyon of Death together.
Guo Huai held a meeting of elders of the sect, and after talking to everyone, he took Black Dragon and White Crane to Penang.
As soon as Guo Huai entered Wanbao Tower, he saw Wang Huai coming up to him happily, "I was looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally I'm waiting for my junior brother!"
"It's my fault that I made my senior brother wait for me for so long! I'll punish myself with three cups of wine later to make amends to my senior brother!"
Guo Huai said with a smile.
Wang Huai was very satisfied with Guo Huai's humble attitude. Everyone felt comfortable getting along with such a smart person.
In the restaurant owned by the House of Internal Affairs of the Yuqing Palace, Guo Huai and Wang Huai exchanged cups and drank happily.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Guo Huaicai asked in confusion: "Senior Brother Wang, isn't this secret realm said to appear only at the end of the year? Wouldn't it be earlier for us to go there now?"
"Hehe! Junior brother, I don't know. Although the journey is a bit far, it doesn't take much time for us to take the teleportation array!"
Wang Huai took a sip of spiritual wine and said with a smile: "But it may take a lot of time for us to cross the Grand Canyon of Death!"
"And after arriving at the secret place, a large number of monks will come. According to previous practices, everyone will gather there to trade in exchange for the materials they need."
Guo Huai asked: "Are there no restrictions on the identities of those who can participate in the secret realm?"
"There are no restrictions. Anyone can participate. It is said that juniors in the Qi refining stage have entered before, and not only did they come out alive, they also got a lot of opportunities."
Wang Huai said seriously: "The people exploring the secret realm this time are not only us from Yuqing Palace, but also the casual cultivators who came after hearing the news. There will also be monks from several other major sects who will participate!"
"For example, our Xuantian Sword Sect to the west, Qi Yue Sect to the southwest, Xuanyin Sect to the south, and the monster beasts of the Wujin Territory to the southeast will all participate."
"So it can be considered a huge event. Everyone comes from all over the world, exchanges materials when they get there, and fights each other after entering the secret realm, so we have to go in advance!"
Three days later, the two took the teleportation array to Yuqing Palace first. Wang Huai and Guo Huai also visited Yuqing Palace for a few days.
Then he took the teleportation array to a city called Fancheng.
Before, Guo Huai thought he was going to Macheng?
Later, when Guo Huai looked at the map and jade slips, he discovered that the two cities were more than 100 million miles apart.
The two arrived at Fancheng, where a large number of senior monks had gathered. Judging from the costumes, they were mainly people from Yuqing Palace and Xuantian Sword Sect, as well as a large number of casual cultivators.
When he arrived in Fancheng, Wang Huai's wide network of contacts became apparent. Guo Huai met many senior monks with him, and Guo Huai also bought a large amount of ore source crystals here.
This made him very happy, because Zhao Ming could only purchase a small part for him each time before. There were a large number of monks gathered here, which made it convenient for him to exchange with others.
After staying in Fancheng for another half month, Wang Huai gathered his friends and entered the Grand Canyon of Death. It didn't look like he was going to explore a secret place, but rather going for an outing!
The Grand Canyon of Death still has a familiar smell, with gloomy winds and sinister air filling the air. It is a paradise for ghost cultivators.
Because the routes within hundreds of thousands of miles nearby have been cleaned up by monks all year round, and ghosts are rarely seen nowadays, the first part of the journey was relatively smooth.
