"You've just recovered a little, so it's better not to move around and rest more."

The old man with a white beard showed kind concern.

"Um."

Li Hao nodded.

He also felt that his physical condition at the moment was worse than ever before. After staying in the void for too long, his battle body was broken, and he was too deeply eroded by the power of the void. These powers seemed to be condensed in the body, like ferocious piercings, constantly destroying the physical body.

, equal to his own self-healing formation.

You can only rely on the property of hiding your strength and biding your time to heal slowly.

The Tao power converted in the body has also dissipated a lot, and the cultivation level has dropped to the early stage of the real person, and it is necessary to condense the Tao power again.

The injury was serious this time. The only good thing is that at least he saved his life.

Being able to escape from the hands of a saint is considered a miracle.

Thinking of Xu Sheng and Yang Sheng, Li Hao couldn't help but have murderous intentions in his heart, but he quickly restrained himself. He put aside his thoughts and healed his injuries for the time being.

"Looking at your accent, you are not from my Canglan Realm, are you?"

The old man with a white beard asked warmly.

Canglan Realm? Li Hao's heart moved and he breathed a sigh of relief, it would be better if it wasn't Yunxia Realm.

Otherwise, under the eyes of his enemies, his current strength would still be too dangerous.

"I was chased by my enemies and fled from somewhere else. Thank you, senior, for taking me here."

Li Hao lowered his eyebrows and said, his words were considered honest, but he did not say that it was the saint who was chasing him.

The white-bearded old man's eyes flashed slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said:

"When you are involved in the world, how can you stay away from right and wrong? I don't care about your enemies. This is the Holy Land of the Sword Ancestor. You can stay here and recuperate in peace."

"Thank you." Li Hao thanked him again.

The old man with the white beard didn't say anything more, but took up the herbs on the side, pounded them, and ground them into powder.

The breeze blows in the courtyard, and the woman's sword seems to pull energy from the air. There are white qi gathering on the tip of the sword, like ribbons, graceful and graceful, but it also implies a fierce offensive, a combination of hardness and softness, implying a deep softness.

road.

Li Hao sat on the straw mat and looked out, seeing that this woman's sword skills were quite advanced and not inferior to his own.

Currently, his swordsmanship is still at 6th level, but he has yet to master any other skills and break through to 7th level.

In the previous battles, although the realm continued to improve, the swordsmanship and boxing skills gradually failed to keep up. During the battle, there was a feeling of inadequacy. Now, taking advantage of this opportunity to recuperate, I can find a way to improve my swordsmanship.

With a thought in his mind, Li Hao called up the panel and looked at his current attributes:

Level 9 in the physical way, level 7 in the imperial way, level 6 in the physical way, level 6 in the sword way, and level 6 in the boxing way.

In terms of arts and skills, there are 6 levels of chess, 4 levels of music, 4 levels of poetry, 4 levels of carving, 9 levels of cooking, 7 levels of painting, and 5 levels of fishing.

Skill points remaining: 5 points.

Mood: the heart of poetry and calligraphy, the heart of sculpture (can be used)

Having previously spent only 200 merits to redeem two states of mind in the merit treasury, Li Hao's poems, calligraphy and sculptures have successfully entered the fourth stage, allowing him to continue to improve his experience.

If he studied and understood it by himself, he would have to ignore other things for at least two or three months and devote himself to it completely before he could understand it, which would save several months of effort.

At present, for the third type of skill, it is best to choose 6-level chess.

Li Hao had already vaguely touched the chess skills after playing chess with Emperor Yu, and now he was just missing a final kick.

At this time, suddenly there was a sound of bells ringing in the distance.

The sound of the bell vibrates like a dusk drum, giving people a comfortable feeling of shaking heart and spleen, as if all the distracting thoughts in the mind have been cleared away.

"Grandpa, I'm going to the Holy Land to practice morning exercises first."

In the courtyard, the woman finished her sword practice, turned around and looked towards the alchemy room, her eyes swept over Li Hao, and said to the old man Bai Hu.

"Um."

The old man with the white beard was concentrating on grinding the medicinal powder and only responded without raising his head.

Li Hao watched as his savior flew away with his sword and disappeared from the horizon in the blink of an eye.

The courtyard became quiet again, except for the sound of stone hammers grinding medicinal powder.

Li Hao was curious about the surrounding environment, but he knew that exploring too eagerly would be counterproductive, so he was not in a hurry, closed his eyes, rested, and recuperated first.

Time flies.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

After recuperation and self-healing, one-third of the void erosion in Li Hao's body was purified, and his complexion is improving.

At this moment, Li Hao was sitting in the corridor in the courtyard, with his feet dangling in the air outside the corridor as if on a swing. He was holding a knife and a piece of wood as long as chopsticks in his hand. The knife moved flexibly on his fingertips, and an old man was gradually carved out of the wood.

Looks kind, kind-hearted.

Soon, as the last carving was completed, Li Hao also stopped working. When he saw the experience tips appearing on the panel, a smile appeared on his lips.

In the past month, he originally planned to study chess and fishing to master these two skills, but no one here likes to play chess, and he can't accumulate experience by playing chess himself, let alone fishing, because he has to go to the Holy Land.

You have to find a place outside.

The injury has not healed, so Li Hao cannot run around to avoid accidents.

When I had nothing to do, I started to improve the carving path in this yard.

Anyway, sooner or later you have to improve, and in this purity, it is just right for one person to carve slowly.

In addition to accumulating sculpture experience, he also thinks about the last glimmer of chess in his spare time, but he has no clue yet.

"Your carving skills are quite good, you should study them carefully."

The voice of the old man with a white beard came from behind. He glanced at the old man in Li Hao's hand and saw that it was his own appearance. His eyes became a little softer and he said softly:

"I just received the news that I need to refine 300 concentration pills today. Please come and help me."

"Okay."

Hearing this, Li Hao put away the knife and placed the old wood carving in his hand on the wooden stand next to him.

In addition to the old man, there are many other things carved there. Many of them are Li Hao's acquaintances in the human world, as well as the little white fox and the big demon he has an impression of.

After putting it away, Li Hao came to the alchemy room.

After getting along with each other for a month, Li Hao also knew the identity of this old man. His name was Lin Shanhai, and he was a high-level alchemist in the Sword Ancestor Holy Land. His status was extremely high, second only to the Half-Saint Elder.

There were alchemists in the Dynasty of Dayu, who were under the control of the royal family, and there were also alchemists in Jianghu sects, but the alchemy recipes and techniques they mastered were limited, and their treatment was not comparable to that of the Royal Alchemy Academy.

"It's still the same as before, you stir-fry first, and I'll refine it later."

Lin Shanhai carried the medicinal materials over and said to Li Hao: "You are also very good at stir-frying, which is a family tradition. Since you helped me, not only the yield of my elixir has been improved, but the quality has also been greatly improved. However,

, there are quite a lot of these trivial matters..."

Speaking of this, I felt a little helpless, but still had a smile on my face.

After all, every time you make an elixir, you can get a certain commission, and the more things you do, the more benefits you will get.

"Little tricks are not enough."

Li Hao smiled, he did not expect that his cooking skills could actually come into contact with alchemy.

Earlier, he watched the old man making elixirs and smelled the strange fragrance of elixirs. He suddenly wondered if his cooking method could cook medicinal materials into delicacies comparable to elixirs.

After having this idea, he borrowed the leftover low-grade medicinal materials from the old man and tried cooking. With the core refining ability of the nine-stage cooking method, the essence of the medicinal materials was extracted and made into simple medicinal dishes. The effect was really not inferior.

elixir.

And compared with elixirs, it has no fire poison and is absorbed purely. Even Li Hao's special situation can be absorbed and used as a dish without being isolated by the panel.

"This is no small trick. This is a refining technique that many alchemists dream of mastering. One of the cores of alchemy is refining, followed by proportional refining. Your refining technology is the best I have ever seen, and it is also the best one I have ever seen.

The most unconventional one, even the old man puts me to shame."

Lin Shanhai admired: "Your ancestor must have been an extremely powerful alchemist. He compiled this purification method into a cooking method to avoid prying eyes from outsiders, and it was passed down in such a subtle way."

"...Maybe."

Li Hao was a little ashamed. He showed off his cooking skills before and made up some random words, which made the old man imagine a background of grudges and hatred. He even felt that he was being chased by his enemies because of the leak of this secret and being spied on by interested people.

Li Hao naturally didn't explain this... so good.

At this moment, he stepped forward to help and prepared the medicinal materials.

When Lin Shanhai turned on the furnace, he immediately stirred the medicinal materials with his palm, stir-fried and smelted them in the air, and used his energy as a shovel to refine the medicinal materials.

Soon, the herbs were cooked and green juice emerged from them.

Lin Shanhai had already experienced it, so he tacitly opened the furnace lid.

Li Hao introduced all the refined concoction into the alchemy furnace.

Fire appeared in Lin Shanhai's palm, and he began to control the medicine in the furnace to condense.
