"Poor foundation?" Wu Yuan couldn't help but was stunned, and then smiled bitterly. His foundation in alchemy was indeed very poor.
Can be equal to zero!
"What are the requirements of the test for you?" Lord Kuachi asked.
"The requirements for the elixir path are to refine ten kinds of immortal-level elixirs. Any elixir will do, but each elixir must be refined three times in a row." Wu Yuan said directly: "The requirements for the weapon path, It requires refining ten low-grade immortal weapons."
"The talisman requirements require the drawing of ten celestial-level talismans, and the category is not required."
The way of alchemy, the way of utensils, and the way of talismans.
They all require Wu Yuan to reach the immortal level.
Like low-grade immortal weapons, most of them have to be masters of weapon refining among immortals to have any hope of easily refining them.
"One of the requirements alone is not too difficult for you, but three requirements at the same time are a bit difficult." Lord Kuachi said: "I don't know how difficult it is for other immortals and gods. If they are all so difficult, then where you are In a place of testing, let alone three thousand people passing the test, it will be difficult for even a thousand people to pass the test in the end."
"So difficult?" Wu Yuan was slightly shocked.
You must know that in a place of testing like theirs, the nearly 20,000 heavenly beings and gods are generally relatively strong, and should not be too weak in other aspects.
In the end, it was difficult for even a thousand people to reach the standard?
However, it was Lord Kuachi who said this.
Still very persuasive.
The only thing Wu Yuan didn't know was whether the difficulty requirements of other immortals and gods were the same as his own.
"Master, wait a moment, let me ask." Wu Yuan said, and the Qi Refining Master immediately began to ask Immortal Li Shutian.
soon!
Wu Yuan got a lot of information from Immortal Li Shutian.
...In the highest level alchemy place in the Cangfeng witchcraft world.
Wu Yuan's body-refining deity looked at Lord Kuachi: "Master, I have inquired clearly. The requirements for other immortals and gods to pass the test are basically the same as mine. They are all required to reach the immortal level, but there is a difference in number."
"That being the case, there's no need to be too anxious." Lord Kuachi smiled and said, "The sharpening of the knife will not delay the chopping of firewood. Let me explain it in detail to you first."
"Yes." Wu Yuan nodded. Although he had never learned the method of alchemy, he also understood that it would not take one or two years to succeed.
It could take as little as a hundred years or as many as a thousand years.
Don't rush this moment.
Listening more to Master and laying a solid foundation is the right path.
"The way of alchemy, the way of weapons, the way of talismans, and even the way of formations, etc., are essentially the study of the principles of the operation of all things." Lord Kuachi said: "However, only those who are close to the ultimate are qualified to say so. Generally, the monarch Only then..., and for most practitioners, the differences between these three paths are huge."
"Since those immortals and gods have not made breakthroughs for a long time, it means that their talents are not very unnatural."
"They may have great potential in a certain path, such as alchemy, weapon refining, etc." Lord Kuachi said: "But they have extremely high achievements in two or even three paths at the same time? The probability of this is very low! None of them!"
Wu Yuan couldn't help but nod.
In fact, there is no essential difference between alchemy, weapon, talismans, formations, etc. and the law of enlightenment.
If you have the corresponding talent, understanding the rules will get twice the result with half the effort, and you will be able to understand a path quickly.
Without talent, it would take hundreds and thousands of times more time to achieve a breakthrough.
"So, you don't have to worry about being thrown away quickly." Lord Kuachi said: "Even if you don't get two or three Black Demon Orders, it shouldn't be difficult to pass the second test in the end."
"Yes." Wu Yuan felt confident.
After all, he had zero foundation, so Wu Yuan did not dare to expect too much, as long as he passed the second test.
...Wu Yuan and Lord Kuachi stood in front of this huge alchemy furnace.
"Disciple, do you know why my master said that the Great Dao of Creation is the most suitable for alchemy?" Lord Kuachi said with a smile.
Wu Yuan couldn't help but shake his head.
"So-called elixirs, whether they improve talents, restore mana, speed up cultivation, chronically poison, or restore physical injuries...all of them are essentially inseparable from the two words life and death." Lord Kuachi said: "Either to make people alive , or death."
"Between life and death, it is the path of alchemy."
Wu Yuan was shocked when he heard this. This was the first time he heard such an explanation of alchemy.
"The way of alchemy is to combine countless substances in the world, especially 'life substances', in order to produce various wonderful changes and finally form elixirs." Lord Kuachi said: "In the process of studying the way of alchemy, you will gradually understand the mysteries of heaven and earth. , it will be easier to understand the rules again."
"So, if you want to take the first step towards alchemy, you must analyze and study all the creatures in the world."
"The great road of creation is the best at this road." Lord Kuachi said: "The second is the law of life."
Wu Yuan suddenly realized.
That’s it, Tao is the foundation.
If you have a deep understanding of the Great Way of Creation and the Law of Life, it will naturally be much easier to deduce the way of alchemy.
But the so-called ease is only relative.
Lord Kuachi must have put in a lot of energy to become the number one in the witchcraft world in alchemy.
"Normally speaking, if your future understanding of the Tao reaches the level of the Dao of Creation and your progress is slow, I will also recommend you to study the Tao of Alchemy, or even the Tao of Instruments, Formations, etc., and draw parallels to help you make progress." Kuachi Jundao : "However, now that you have condensed the true meaning of the great road and have the understanding of the Star Lord level, it may also be miraculous to understand these small paths in advance."
"The impact is not huge."
Wu Yuan secretly lamented that it turned out that his master had already planned to train him according to his own path.
"Regarding Alchemy, I have prepared two training routes for you."
"The first one is quick success." Lord Kuachi said, "That is to specifically select ten kinds of elixirs at the level of immortals. You specialize in learning the corresponding alchemy techniques, no matter the cost, try and practice again and again, and gradually become more proficient until you finally succeed. .”
"The advantage is that it is fast. With your understanding of the true meaning of creation, combined with your understanding of space and time, you should be able to succeed in as little as a few decades or as long as two to three hundred years."
"The disadvantage is that if you study other elixirs in the future, you will still encounter great difficulties, because you only know what they are and don't know why." Lord Kuachi said: "It won't help you to learn the way of tools and talismans. big."
"As short as a few decades? As long as two to three hundred years?" Wu Yuan thought to himself, and continued to ask: "Master, what about the second kind?"
"The second is to proceed step by step, starting from the most basic elixir, and gradually, using the true meaning of creation to analyze the essence and mystery of all things in the world, and understand the inner laws of the operation of all things." Lord Kuachi said: "The so-called elixir, the so-called elixir The essence of alchemy techniques is summarized in rules, and there is nothing very special about it."
"This kind of practice will be slow at first, but the more you accumulate it, the deeper it will become, and you will even become a true master of alchemy."
"If you analyze the mysteries of all things, then it should be faster for you to accept the test of the Tao of Instruments and the Tao of Talismans." Lord Kuachi said: "It will also be of great help to you in the future to understand the Great Way of Creation. "
"Its disadvantage is that it is slow, very slow. After all, it is very difficult to analyze and understand the essence of all living things."
"It could be as short as a thousand years or as long as tens of thousands of years. It all depends on your talent." Lord Kuachi said, "This is still based on your understanding of the Star Lord level."
"If you only have the understanding of the immortal level, then it is normal to study for millions or thousands of years without achieving any great achievements."
Wu Yuan nodded lightly.
A road is easy first and then difficult; a road is hard first and then easy.
Enough interest.
"Have you thought about it?" Lord Kuachi asked.
"Master, I choose the second path." Wu Yuan said solemnly.
"Oh? Tell me the reason." Lord Kuachi asked curiously.
"First, I believe in myself. Just like Master said, my Tao perception is high enough." Wu Yuan said solemnly: "Second, since the Dark Lord has set up this inheritance test, I'm afraid it's not just for us to pass by trickery. The present test.”
"Let us study the way of alchemy, tools, and talismans. It may be related to the final inheritance."
"Therefore, the disciple would rather walk slowly than to walk steadily." Wu Yuan said secretly: "Of course, if the disciple studies for tens or hundreds of years, it will be difficult to make progress on the second path, and it will be difficult to turn to the first path again. Late."
"OK."
"Now that you have thought it through, let's get started." Lord Kuachi said, "You have obtained the "Secret Book of Black Demons", and there is also a "Book of All Things Alchemy" that I have obtained, which is a very powerful one. Alchemy method."
"The two methods, learning from each other, will make you walk more steadily."
soon.
Wu Yuan received all the information about the "Elixir of All Things" from his master.
Comparing it with the information on some of the methods in the "Secret Code of Black Demons" that he obtained, Wu Yuan was able to detect the difference between the two.
"The Secret Code of Black Demons is more about art, and the alchemy techniques it contains are more advanced." Wu Yuan thought: "And the Code of Alchemy of All Things is more about understanding the way of alchemy from the perspective of analyzing all things."
There is no superiority or inferiority between the two methods, but there are differences between the two routes.
But they are all extremely profound and mysterious.
"The Tao of Alchemy is also a great way." The more Wu Yuan thought about and comprehended the two major methods, the more he admired the creators of the two methods: "No wonder there are countless practitioners who are immersed in the Tao of Alchemy. This is also the ultimate way. If you follow If you understand and deduce it to the extreme, you may be able to use the heaven and earth as a pill furnace to condense the entire universe."
That is the ultimate, the ultimate and legend of alchemy.
Studying the two methods also gave Wu Yuan a deeper understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of the two routes.
"I want both paths."
Wu Yuan was filled with desire: "First study the mysteries of all things, analyze all things...and then practice various alchemy techniques, striving to make the level of alchemy even higher."
…
"If you want to deduce the nature of all things and spirits, you must first analyze the nature of life."
"The way of alchemy is based on elixirs."
"So, what you have to do first is to analyze and understand the medicinal properties and basic life units of these 55,000 elixirs." Lord Kuachi began to explain to Wu Yuan.
There is no profound and mysterious operation of Tao.
There is no powerful alchemy technique drill.
The first step is to understand the elixir.
The second step is to analyze the elixir.
"Fifty-five thousand elixirs, are all the elixirs that the witchcraft world has collected over hundreds of millions of years and contain all the basic units of life?" Wu Yuan was shocked when he heard this.
"There are a total of 5.5 million basic units of life in these elixirs. Countless lives are composed of these basic units of life?"
"If you can analyze the life essence of all elixirs, can you also analyze the essential mystery of the law of life?"
During Lord Kuachi's explanation, Wu Yuan realized the other side of the law of life.
The origin and foundation of countless lives.
only.
It's easy to say it, but it was only through actual deduction and understanding that Wu Yuan realized the difficulty.
There are 5.5 million basic units of life, each with only slight differences. There are countless combinations of combinations with each other.
Simply endless.
And even the tiniest life, the most common elixir, is composed of hundreds of billions of basic units of life.
Extremely complex.
"This kind of insight and observation must be barely observed by immortals and gods." Wu Yuan quickly realized this.
Analyzing all things is easy to say, but it is an extremely difficult road to walk, and ordinary practitioners are not qualified to walk it.
You must have a powerful spirit at the level of immortals and gods to barely qualify.
Otherwise, let alone understanding and deduction, even a small part of it would be impossible to remember.
"memory?"
"I can only remember part of it, and I have to truly understand it before I can put it together." Wu Yuan was shocked and obsessed with it.
Each tiny basic unit of life seems ordinary, but when countless basic units of life are combined together, magical changes occur, making them contain infinite possibilities.
This is life!
"The basic unit of life, the essence of the evolution of heaven and earth." Wu Yuan was immersed in it and quickly realized.
He has condensed the true meaning of creation. The so-called origin of creation contains the essence of the evolution of life.
Therefore, with a little understanding, Wu Yuan's progress is extremely fast.
…
"Basic unit of life!"
"Although I, the Qi Refiner, cannot use the Great Way of Creation, I still condense the true meaning of life and death."
"Besides, the true meaning of time and space is that time and space are the source of all things, and the essence of life also contains time and space." Wu Yuan's Qi Refining deity also comprehended it wholeheartedly.
The two deities, starting from two avenues respectively, understood each other and produced many wonderful sparks and inspirations.
even.
The two deities no longer study the great path, but instead use all their strength to deduce the two secret methods and the essence of life in a large number of elixirs.
…
"It's such a fast speed of understanding."
"My disciple is indeed a peerless evildoer who has long grasped the true meaning of creation." Lord Kuachi was also shocked.
He had long guessed that Wu Yuan would make rapid progress. After all, the true meaning of creation was best suited to analyze the essence of all things.
But he never expected that Wu Yuan would progress so quickly, several times faster than he expected.
"Could it be that."
"My disciple is extremely suitable for this path?" This thought flashed through Lord Kuachi's mind.
However, he did not expect that the two deities of Wu Yuan would cooperate with each other, especially the Qi Refining deity whose power was beyond that of ordinary immortals, so the efficiency was naturally astonishing.
…
In the world of time and space, in the Black Demon Blood Cave, in the place of testing, countless pill furnaces are lined up.
Most of the immortals and gods are trying to refine the elixir again and again.
A very small number of powerful people were deep in thought, including Wu Yuan. No one knew that his two deities had realized together.
More than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
In one of the alchemy furnace spaces.
Boom!
The fire was strong, and bursts of rich spiritual energy escaped from the alchemy furnace, followed by several elixirs flying out.
"The eighth immortal-level elixir is finally ready." Lord Gu Longshou smiled.
At the same time, he has been reminded that the third furnace of the eighth elixir was successful and he can continue to refine the ninth elixir.
"I have been able to refine nine types of immortal-level elixirs before." Lord Gu Longshou smiled: "This time, with the special guidance from the monarch and the "Secret Code of Black Demons", I naturally made rapid progress and mastered it one after another. He has learned several methods of refining elixirs."
Refining elixirs is very difficult. Even if the ancient longevity star master is extremely accomplished in elixirs, he will occasionally fail.
It is normal for each furnace of elixir to take anywhere from a few months to a hundred years.
Lord Gu Shou Xing chose a relatively simple elixir, and it still took him more than ten years to reach this point.
"other people?"
The ancient longevity star master's eyes swept across the alchemy furnace spaces on both sides of the void, taking in a panoramic view of tens of thousands of immortals and gods.
"In our place of testing, on the Alchemy Road, there should be no one faster than me." Lord Gu Longshou said secretly.
Of course, he couldn't be too sure.
There are eleven test sites in total for the second test. There may be people who can progress faster in other test sites, maybe.
"Continue." Lord Gu Longshou continued to refine the elixir.
…
Time flies like water, and several years pass in the blink of an eye.
Wu Yuan Qi Refining himself has been doing his best to comprehend, and at the same time, he has been observing the situation of others.
In particular, he pays close attention to the top group of powerful people such as Red Devil Star Lord, Xueyao Star Lord, and Ancient Shou Star Lord.
The stronger the strength and the higher the understanding of Tao, the stronger the many auxiliary methods will be.
"There are 55,000 basic elixirs, and more than 50,000 have been initially analyzed."
Preliminary analysis and perfect analysis are two concepts.
Just like one plus one equals two, preliminary analysis only needs to be remembered, but perfect analysis requires proof.
Difficulty varies greatly.
"Basic life units, more than 100,000 types have been analyzed and understood."
"I have also deduced a lot about the theory of alchemy techniques in "The Secret Book of Dark Demons", but it is not enough." Wu Yuan felt that he had made great progress in the past twenty years.
It seems that the understanding of Tao has not been significantly improved, but in fact, the law of life has been sorted out from the beginning and from another dimension.
Wu Yuan had a hunch that if he tried to deduce and understand the laws of life in the future, he would probably make rapid progress.
"not enough."
"The accumulation is far from enough. Even if I try to refine elixirs now, I estimate that I will be able to refine elixirs at the immortal level. How can I refine elixirs at the immortal level? The probability of failure is extremely high." Wu Yuan shook his head slightly.
He was not satisfied.
But if the news spread, it would be shocking enough. After all, he was just a novice in alchemy twenty years ago.
In just twenty years, he was able to refine an immortal-level elixir, and he still followed the most difficult route of 'analyzing all things'. The speed of progress was incredible.
He continued to ponder.
In particular, the body-refining deity is currently studying and analyzing various elixirs in the highest-level alchemy ground in the witchcraft world, under the guidance of Lord Kuachi.
There are fifty-five thousand kinds of elixirs, and there are thousands of strains of each elixir, coming from different life cycles.
Ordinary forces simply cannot gather together, but with the help of Lord Kuachi, this is not a problem.
This is the top elixir resource in the entire witchcraft world, supporting Wu Yuan's enlightenment practice.
Several months passed in the blink of an eye.
this day.
suddenly.
"Buzz~" An invisible wave descended, covering the entire testing place, waking up tens of thousands of immortals and gods.
Everyone couldn't help but look over.
"Um?"
"what's the situation?"
"The devil has appeared."
"Has anyone met the test requirements?" All the immortals and gods were shocked and looked at the great demon who had condensed a shadow in the void.
now.
The Great Demon faced nearly 20,000 immortal cultivators, looked down at them, and said calmly: "After twenty years, some of you have finally met the first test requirement."
"What?"
"Someone has refined ten kinds of immortal-level elixirs so quickly? Even if they refine them non-stop, it can't be so fast."
"So fast."
"Who is it?" Many immortals and gods from various forces were shocked. Many of them had only refined one or two kinds, and quite a few of them had not even refined one.
After all, it is very difficult to suddenly achieve great success in alchemy without any experience in the past.
"Gu Shou!"
The devil's eyes fell on the ancient longevity star master.
"Senior Great Demon." Master Gushouxing was extremely excited and saluted respectfully.
He also didn't expect that he would be the first to complete the alchemy requirements.
"The Lord of Ancient Longevity."
"It's him!"
"He was actually the first to complete it. He must have obtained three Black Magic Tokens before." Countless immortals and gods stared at the Ancient Shou Xing Lord with envy.
In the first test, the ancient longevity stars were among the best performers.
The second test, taking the lead again?
"You have completed the first alchemy requirement and continue with the second weapon test." The demon said calmly: "Work hard. If you complete the three tests first, you will get three black magic orders."
"Yes." Lord Gu Longshou said respectfully.
Wow~
The alchemy furnace in front of the ancient longevity star changed and formed a super large refining room.
This scene made many immortals and gods even more jealous.
"continue."
"I only achieved the first requirement, one step at a time, one step at a time." Lord Gu Longshou said secretly: "Not to mention being the first to complete the three requirements, at least I have to strive for the top ten."
He is self-aware that he is extremely good at alchemy, but he lacks a lot in the art of weapons and talismans.
...Baixuan Palace Headquarters.
"Gu Shou, I have been ordered to guide you in the cultivation of weapons." A powerful star king came to see Lord Gu Shou Star.
"Thank you Xingjun." Lord Gu Longshou Xing said.
…
When the Lord of Ancient Longevity reaches the first requirement, it is like a beginning and time passes.
Less than a month later, the second strong person who fulfilled the first requirement emerged. She was only the sixth level strong person 'Xiang Fei Tian Xian'.
He is a strong man from the devil world!
"Actually, the strong men from the demon world took the lead?" Many strong men from the Tao world frowned secretly.
"It's Fairy Xiang Fei."
"He is a famous alchemy master in our demon world." Although many powerful men in the demon world were jealous, they were also excited.
Then came the third, the fourth, the fifth... year after year, when the testing time stretched over thirty years.
In this place of testing, those who fulfilled the first requirement sprung up like mushrooms.
Quickly surpassing three hundred.
Powerful beings such as Red Devil Star Master and Xueyao Star Master have met the requirements one after another.
And when the test time came to the 80th year, there were more than 800 people who completed the first requirement in this place of test.
Half of them are powerful people in the Taoist world, and even Immortal Li Shutian has met the requirements.
even.
When time came to ninety years, the first strong man to fulfill the second requirement finally appeared - Xiang Fei Tianxian.
Although she is a sixth-level immortal, she has come from behind to become the number one being.
Suddenly, many immortals and gods in the whole place of trial were boiling.
"She is a sixth-level immortal, but she has surpassed so many star masters, ranked first, and started the third test?"
"It's so fast!"
"This second test is indeed not just a test. Star Lords have higher Tao awareness and have some advantages. However, high Tao awareness does not mean that they have high achievements in the ways of elixirs, weapons, and talismans."
"Xiang Fei, extraordinary." Countless immortals and gods were discussing, and even many powerful men from the Taoist world remembered Xiang Fei's name.
This is a formidable enemy!
but.
When a hundred years passed and more than a thousand immortals and gods met the first requirement, many people also noticed an existence that had become inconspicuous.
"Crying Sword!"
"He has the understanding of the Star Lord level, but he hasn't even met the first Alchemy requirement yet."
"It's too slow."
"This kind of cultivation genius has probably never been exposed to alchemy in the past, so his progress will naturally be extremely slow."
"Alchemy Dao and Qi Dao both require time to accumulate."
"He performed very well before, but in this second test, he might fall directly." Many people thought so.
The top experts who had previously regarded Wu Yuan as the biggest threat also temporarily lowered their guard against Wu Yuan.
... There were many disturbances from the outside world, but Wu Yuan remained unwavering in his heart. The two deities followed the path they chose step by step.
In the blink of an eye.
The second test has lasted for nearly two hundred years.
