Looking through the storage bags of the Shao brothers, Wu Tao found various materials, such as spider sac flowers and fruits, rhinoceros hornwort, the inner elixir of the thunderbird in the elixir formation stage, the tiger bones of the white tiger in the elixir formation stage, and dozens of other materials.

All spirit stones, two or three magic weapons!

"This spider sac flower fruit and rhinoceros hornwort can be used to refine a highly toxic poison pill. As for other spiritual materials, they also have their own uses..."

Wu Tao looked at his harvest and thought secretly.

…

In fact, the Shaw brothers are not really that stupid. Even fools cannot become monks in the alchemy stage.

It's just that the Shaw brothers firmly believe that because of the nobility of the family, people who are not from the family should be polite.

But Wu Tao is a foreigner, how could he abide by the rules of the Jin Kingdom?

Therefore, the Shaw brothers were actually wronged.

As the ship sailed towards the depths of Mingze County, the aura became more and more intense. There were few people around, the mountains were secluded, and the roars of mythical beasts continued.

Wu Tao, who was sitting on the bow of the boat, sighed quietly and raised his hand to strike out a thunderbolt as thick as a bowl.

This lightning was very powerful. After it landed on the water, it immediately exploded into a ball of lightning.

The monsters floating on the water were so frightened that they quickly sank under the water.

If they were hit by this lightning, their skin would be torn apart and half their lives would be lost.

If he were an ordinary monk, he would have a special skill.

However, for Wu Tao, if he raises his hand and strikes a sword, he can be ten times, a hundred times, or even a thousand times better than this.

To be honest, such a weak thunder method was of little value to him.

This is what he worked hard to absorb and refine from the thunder energy between heaven and earth every day.

At the extreme of Yang, changes occur, and when the extreme reaches the limit, it becomes thunder and lightning. This is the general outline of the first-grade thunder-attribute magical power that Wu Tao obtained, the Divine Thunder.

This first-class thunder-attribute magical power "Open Heaven Divine Thunder" is indeed extraordinary and points directly to the origin of thunder.

It’s just that Wu Tao has never succeeded in enlightenment.

Although Wu Tao only needs to move a little and raise his hand to unleash the power of thunder, relatively speaking, it is really good.

Although it is useless against monks of the same level, killing a monk in the foundation-building stage is really just a matter of one palm.

But this is just a spell, not a magical power.

Spells are attacks based on spiritual power, communicating with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

To put it bluntly, it is a method of converting the spiritual power in the body into attacks.

In this way, the stronger the spiritual power, the greater the power of natural spells.

A person like Wu Tao, who has spiritual power in the late stage of the alchemy stage, can master any spell with a little understanding, and his shots are extremely powerful.

However, no spell can compare to magical powers.

The strength of your spiritual power directly determines the power of your spells. No matter how hard you practice, you will be limited by your own spiritual power.

Therefore, when Wu Tao reached the realm of pill formation, he rarely used spells when facing enemies.

Because the power of the five elements spells of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, including wind and thunder spells, all depend on one's own spiritual power. When the enemy is truly formidable, the spells will be of no use.

The reason why Wu Tao is practicing Thunder Technique now is actually to lay the foundation for first-grade magical power in advance.

The first-grade thunder attribute magical power "Open Heaven Divine Thunder" is an extremely powerful killing move. Once practiced successfully, it will be of great benefit to Wu Tao.

"Open Heaven Divine Thunder" adopts the polar energy between heaven and earth. It moves like thunder and is as fast as lightning. It destroys everything and has irresistible power.

Wu Tao has adopted the energy of the extreme yang and practiced the thunder method in the past few days. It is already a good result to achieve such results.

After all, there is no shortcut to practice without the help of plug-ins.

The longer the time and the deeper the practice, the more powerful the thunder method will be.

So, with some hard work and about fifty years, the thunder method will be completed!

But wouldn’t it be faster to practice swordsmanship if you have this free time?

Wu Tao sighed.

…

Wu Tao's practice was slow and he had to use foreign objects to speed up.

Another day passed, and Wu Tao, who was sitting on the bow of the boat, saw a escaping light coming from nearby. He immediately spoke and the owner of the escaping light came in response.

The owner of Dunguang, named Yan Qing, is a monk in the late stage of alchemy.

After he discovered that Wu Tao's cultivation level was no less than his, his pupils shrank slightly.

Yan Qing no longer had the careless look he had before. He cupped his hands and said, "You have been summoned by fellow Taoist, do you have any important matters to discuss?"

In line with the attitude of hello, me, and everyone, Wu Tao smiled and said, "Fellow Taoist, you are too polite. I just want to ask for directions!"

Yan Qing burst out laughing and said.

I have been in Mingze County for almost ten years, and I know everything about the situation around here.

Wu Tao was silent for a while, and then asked directly: "Fellow Taoist, do you know where there is a large market nearby for monks to replenish supplies?"

Yan Qing thought for a moment and organized his speech: "This is deep in Mingze County. In addition to the monks in the Danjie stage who can survive alone, even some Nascent Soul stage monks are also haunted..."

"However, it is precisely because of these reasons that there are no markets nearby..."

"Various resources are exchanged with each other only within a small circle of people who know each other."

"If you want to exchange more supplies, you still have to turn back to the west. There is Wuzefang, which was established by the second-class Wu family, the owner of Mingze County."

Hearing this, Wu Tao became interested and suddenly asked: "Can a second-class family completely control Mingze County with such a strong aura?"

…

Hearing this, Yan Qing's expression changed, he looked Wu Tao up and down, and then spoke.

"The Wu family is not an ordinary second-class family. Its power is so strong that even the Chu family, the masters of Chu Territory, are afraid of it."

"The Wu family has two mid-Nascent Soul monks and six early Nascent Soul monks. There are eight Nascent Soul monks in total. It can be regarded as the top second-class family!"

Wu Tao thought for a moment and said: "I originally planned to go to Moyuan, but now it seems that Wuzefang is also worth a visit."

"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for your message!"

After all, Wu Tao and Yan Qing left each other jade symbols for sound transmission, which is equivalent to making a friend for this reason.

Wu Tao followed the previous road, flew tens of thousands of miles, and headed for a city in the county.

And this city is "Lunming City", the capital of Mingze County.

Wuzefang City in Lunming City was established by the Wu family. Later, it gradually attracted many local aristocratic families and casual cultivators, and it became the first city in Mingze County.

The entire city of Lunming is made of black stone. There are towers at the four corners, which are thousands of feet high. It is an atmospheric scene.

There are countless high-rise buildings in the city, and there is a large array of spiritual lights in the sky. From time to time, you can see escaping lights flying past, appearing and disappearing.

However, during Wu Tao's brief stay, hundreds of escaping lights entered the city.

Wu Tao came leisurely in a flying ship, attracting more attention than those monks who escaped with magic weapons.

Before he could put away his magic weapon, someone came out of the city to greet him.

The monk who welcomed the guests was wearing a red robe with the family emblem representing the Wu family embroidered on it. He seemed to be a descendant of the Wu family, with some status and background.

He had a smile on his face and looked extremely friendly. He raised his hands and said to Wu Tao: "Hey, is this senior coming to our Lunming City for the first time?"

The stewards like this who are specially responsible for reception and guarding at the door are the most discerning.

As soon as he saw Wu Tao's car, he knew that this monk's cultivation level was definitely above the alchemy stage, and he must have an origin and background.

Sure enough, as soon as they met, he discovered Wu Tao's cultivation in the late stage of pill formation.

Only Wu Pingchang, who was in the late stage of foundation building, could not help but bend down a little, nodding and bowing, looking respectful.

Seeing Wu Tao nodding slightly without any look of concern on his face, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Many senior monks have eccentric personalities and are extremely difficult to talk to. That's why he, a man with a certain background and smooth personality, was appointed as the receptionist at the city gate.

"I, Wu Pingchang, am one of the receptionists at the gate of this city. According to the rules, monks like my senior can get a jade plaque that will stay in this city forever."

With that said, Wu Pingchang took out a jade plaque from the plate next to him and handed it to Wu Tao with both hands.

…

Wu Tao nodded and casually rewarded him with an ordinary pill that improves cultivation.

Afterwards, Wu Tao walked towards the city with Wu Pingchang's respectful and surprised eyes.

Wu Tao was walking in the city, strolling around casually. He stopped and stopped along the way, looking very curious. At first glance, he was a monk who came to Lunming City for the first time.

…

Wu Tao's appearance quickly attracted the attention of interested people.

Wu Tao's curiosity aroused and he kept walking forward, but he was stopped on the street by a girl as beautiful as a rose.
