Half a year ago, Gu Qing bought this high-grade magic weapon alchemy furnace in the Qiandan Pavilion where alchemists gathered in the middle of the Earth Fire Mountain Range. It was different from ordinary alchemy furnaces.
It looks like a toad sitting on the ground, purple-gold in color, two or three feet tall, with six legs and four ears. There are many textures engraved on the furnace body.
These textures are like flowing water, surrounding the furnace body, but they are also like drifting flames, extremely flexible, passing through the 128 small holes on the lower part of the furnace body.
These small holes are in the shape of copper coins. Through these holes, the monks can observe the situation inside the alchemy furnace with the naked eye.
Gu Qing stretched out his hand and held the several-kilogram alchemy furnace effortlessly in his palm.
'This alchemy furnace should be enough..." Gu Qing's eyes flashed slightly, and his spiritual consciousness followed his arm and condensed into the alchemy furnace. Golden mana also poured into the furnace body as his spiritual consciousness came out.
In just the blink of an eye, Gu Qing refined the alchemy furnace.
The golden mana around him circulated around him, wrapping the alchemy furnace under it, and then throwing it in his hand, he threw the alchemy furnace in mid-air, causing most of it to enter the embedded wall and float above the earthly fire. .
Since the alchemy furnace has been sacrificed and refined, although Gu Qing still captures it with his spiritual consciousness, he only needs to continuously pour in mana, and the consumption of the soul power has been reduced to the point where it is almost non-existent.
Of course, when it comes to actually manipulating the Earth Fire and refining elixirs, judging from Gu Qing's past knowledge, the consumption of the power of the soul is still relatively large.
The ground fire was scorching the alchemy furnace, but it didn't make any difference to the alchemy furnace for a long time. Gu Qing frowned.
His eyes moved around in front of him, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he looked at the golden mana attached to the alchemy furnace.
"With the isolation of my magic power, the earthly fire cannot reach the alchemy furnace... So, I can just remove the magic power..." Gu Qing was a little unsure and touched his chin.
It's not like Gu Qing has never tried alchemy in the past.
But at that time, he was still a low-level monk struggling in the early and middle stages of Qi refining. He was running around for a few low-grade spiritual stones every day, and he only had a brief taste of alchemy.
After knowing that he could not refine the elixir quickly, he stopped.
Gu Qing thought for a while, then turned over his hands and took out the four ancient books.
He first picked up the basics of Wu's Alchemy and quickly flipped through it, memorizing every word and sentence in it.
"I see...the magic power that isolates the Earth Fire and the Alchemy Furnace cannot be completely withdrawn, but it cannot be completely destroyed either..."
"Also... the requirements for the stability of the flame in alchemy are so high... the control of the flame... the timing of entering the furnace of various medicinal materials... when making the elixir, you can't rush to open the furnace..." As I read through, Gu Qing's expression changed continuously, as if he had glimpsed a novel world.
An hour later, Gu Qing finished reading the basics of Wu's alchemy. He put the ancient book into his storage ring and slowly closed his eyes.
It was not until half a day later that Gu Qing took a deep breath, opened his eyes, and said to himself: "Although this book only records some basic things about alchemy, for me, it is perfect... This alchemy matter has nothing to do with talismans, nor does it involve a little bit of cleverness. It just focuses on talent and experience... If you have enough talent, then practicing this alchemy will naturally be smooth sailing."
"If you want to practice this alchemy process, the monk's affinity for the fire aura must reach at least 60%..."
"No wonder the number of alchemists is so small. If the affinity for fire spiritual energy reaches 60%, it can be said to be a high-level qualification... There are already very few people with high-level qualifications, far less than those with medium qualifications and low-level qualifications. Qualified people, and those who can make alchemy are only some of the top qualified people who have fire spiritual roots..."
Gu Qing felt speechless and fell silent.
Even now, his fire spiritual roots may not have reached 60% spiritual affinity. Of course, this only means that he does not have the qualifications to start alchemy from the beginning. At present, his cultivation level has reached Fake elixir, this little restriction is naturally equivalent to nothing.
Gu Qing picked up the discussion on the advantages and disadvantages of the two fire control techniques of Sancai Formation and Four Yuan Heqi, and slowly turned over the pages.
It seems.
Four or five hours passed.
Gu Qing let out a long breath and stared at the ground fire ahead.
He put down this book on the pros and cons of the two fire control techniques of Sancai Zhizhi and Quan Yuan Heqi, and looked away.
Gu Qing only read it once and understood the method of controlling fire recorded in this ancient book.
Without even looking at the earth fire in front of him, his spiritual consciousness condensed and landed on the earth fire, causing the earth fire that was originally burning steadily to sway.
After just swaying for a moment, the earth fire was steadily divided into three flowers, and its color also changed from the original dark red to light red.
"The advantage of the three-talented formation and fire control method is that it is extremely stable. However, when refining the elixir, there may occasionally be a fierce fire. At this time, it will change into four-yuan combined energy..." Gu Qing swallowed lightly towards the front. Blow a mouthful of golden mana into the center of three light red earth fires.
Teng!
The golden mana immediately turned into a ball of golden flame, attracting three light-colored earth fires, causing the three earth fires to sink into it, turning into a golden-red flame that exuded blazing temperature but also had some stability.
Gu Qing tapped his hand lightly, and a trace of golden mana quickly disappeared into the flame, like firewood, maintaining the golden-red flame.
Although this flame is also golden-red in color, it is very different from the golden-red flame that Gu Qing deliberately triggered.
The golden-red flame that Gu Qing deliberately activated had a hint of the true fire of the sun. It was an extremely hot flame. I am afraid that no elixir could withstand even a trace of the heat of the flame.
Golden-red flames bloomed on the lotus pedestal that was originally emitting earth fire in front of it, slightly burning the lotus pedestal. Seeing this, Gu Qing's eyes flashed. Xiu Shuzhu
He retracted his finger, and the blazing golden-red flame quickly dissipated, swayed a few times, and turned into dark red ground fire again.
Gu Qing looked at the steadily burning earth fire, and then picked up the Wu family's encyclopedia of basic elixir recipes and thousands of elixirs.
Gu Qing read this ancient book quickly.
Although, it is the thickest among the four ancient books.
Gu Qing just glanced at the medicinal properties of thousands of elixirs recorded in it and wrote them all down.
"Most of them introduce the medicinal properties of first- and second-level elixirs, and only record the medicinal properties of five third-level elixirs..." Gu Qiang put this ancient book away together with the ancient book he had read before, and Picked up the last remaining one among these four ancient books.
"Ancestor Wu Qingfeng's Alchemy Notes... Did the Wu family's alchemy technique originate from Wu Qingfeng..."
Gu Qing flipped through this ancient book and gradually became fascinated.
This ancient book not only records Wu Qingfeng's experience in alchemy, but through this ancient book, we can also get a glimpse of clues about Wu Qingfeng's survival activities thousands of years ago.
According to this book.
Wu Qingfeng was originally a monk from a small tribe in the south of Qianchuan County. The first third of this alchemy notebook records many things about that small tribe. From these few words left by Wu Qingfeng, it can be seen that That small tribe completely died out when Wu Qingfeng was thirty-four years old.
Then comes the middle third of this alchemy notebook. .Ь.
The middle third of this alchemy note should have been left by Wu Qingfeng during the time he traveled thousands of miles from the southern end of Qianchuan County to this place.
From this part of the record, Gu Qing was able to get a glimpse of some things about the Great Li Cultivation World.
As for what Gu Qing guessed, the Xiuzhenfang City here was controlled by the imperial court and major forces, and could not sell elixirs and techniques that could allow monks to break through to high realms. From the middle part of Wu Qingfeng's alchemy notes, he said Got it in the affirmative.
Wu Qingfeng had scolded these powerful forces and the Dali court more than once a thousand years ago.
The best part of this alchemy notebook is undoubtedly the last third.
This part should be that Wu Qingfeng knew that his time was running out and deliberately left it for future generations. He recorded the key points of refining many kinds of elixirs in detail, and by observing the appearance of various flames, he determined the flame. able to act as
The secret to the alchemy fire.
After reading for three days, until he finished reading the last page, Gu Qing silently put away the alchemy notebook.
"The art of alchemy is really profound and profound. Just refining more than a dozen kinds of first- and second-grade elixirs, there are so many things to say..." Gu Qing sighed, and with a flash of inspiration in his hand, he took out the storage box containing various medicinal materials. bag, and took out a portion of various medicinal materials needed to refine a first-grade lower-level elixir, Wood Qi Pill.
Wood Qi Pill is a relatively rare healing elixir among first-grade lower-level elixirs.
Gu Qing used his consciousness to control the earth fire with the fire control technique. With a thought in his heart, he put away most of the golden mana wrapped around the body of the alchemy furnace.
raging……!
As Gu Qing put away his magic power, the ground fire immediately expanded after contacting the alchemy furnace, swallowing half of the alchemy furnace.
Soon, raging flames ignited in the alchemy furnace. Gu Qing fired a burst of magic power with a flick of his hand, opened the lid of the alchemy furnace, recalled the steps of refining the wood energy pill, put each medicinal material into the alchemy furnace, and began Made alchemy.
Three years later.
In the fire cave.
boom!
A dull explosion sounded, and then large plumes of black smoke shot out from the small holes in the alchemy furnace above the ground fire.
After three years of smoke and fire, Gu Qing, whose body was still clean of dust, waved his sleeves, threw out a storage bag, put away all the black smoke, frowned, and looked at the alchemy furnace in front of him.
In three years, the appearance of this alchemy furnace has changed drastically.
It was as if decades had passed, and the originally shining purple-gold alchemy furnace had now turned into a grayish autumn color.
Gu Qing's heart moved. He extinguished the golden-red flames burning under the gray alchemy furnace. He didn't care about the scorching furnace body, which was slightly red. He concentrated his spiritual power on his hands, opened the lid of the furnace, and watched the contents gradually fade. Under the extinguished flame, there are some medicinal residues.
"This high-grade white jade pill has exploded hundreds of times in succession... Among this grade, the most difficult pill to refine is probably this white jade pill..."
Gu Qing threw the alchemy furnace aside, pointed it as a sword, gathered a little water vapor, and forcibly used the dust removal technique on the alchemy furnace several times to clean it.
Then, Gu Qing placed the alchemy furnace above the ground fire again.
He quietly looked at the extremely familiar high-grade magic weapon, the Alchemy Furnace, in front of him, with a thoughtful expression in his eyes.
In the past three years, Gu Qing has consumed almost all the medicinal materials he purchased before and refined more than a dozen first-grade elixirs. Among them, the most refined one is the low-grade wood energy elixir— -He made more than 57,000 pills of this elixir.
One furnace of Wood Qi Pill can produce about fifteen to fifty pills. Although this pill was the first pill Gu Qing tried to refine, after he refined this Wood Qi Pill ten thousand times, The success rate of this elixir has reached 90%. It is the elixir with the highest success rate that he has refined so far. Secondly, it is a first-grade mid-level healing elixir.
Gu Qing found that when he was refining healing elixirs, or in other words, refining some elixirs based on wood spiritual elixirs, he was indeed more comfortable than refining other elixirs.
'Right now, continuing to refine this kind of White Jade Pill Pill here will no longer help improve my level of alchemy... The reason why the refining efficiency of this kind of White Jade Pill Pill is low is that the skill of controlling fire is not very good. Yes... after all, this White Jade Pill Dao is not in Wu Qingfeng's alchemy notes, it is the prescription Wu received later..." Gu Qingru thought, stood up, and left the futon he had been sitting on for three years.
The futon under the seat was still as clean as ever, but it was a little flattened and there were two deep butt marks left on it.
Gu Qing put the futon into the storage ring and looked at himself.
After three years of continuous alchemy, and continuous movement of golden mana, his current control of the mana around him, although not meticulous, is much more sophisticated than before, and he is in the fake elixir realm. The perfect cultivation level has been fully consolidated and reached the point of returning to nature without revealing anything.
In the sea of Qi in Dantian, that empty star
The elixir is not even half as solid as before, but there is already a sense of concentration on it.
'Get rid of impetuosity, wash away all the delicacy..."
'If we attack the pill formation now, the success rate will be at least half percent higher than before..." Gu Qingfu thought with a clear mind.
This was a mysterious feeling, and Gu Qing couldn't tell where it came from, but it certainly convinced him.
He waved his hand to put away the red-hot alchemy furnace, and also put away the storage bag used to collect the black smoke. Then with a flash of light in his hand, he took out the storage bag containing the elixirs refined in the past three years.
Gu Qing concentrated on it, looking at the mountain of pills inside.
'What should I do with these elixirs...bring them back to Lin Tingxue? Or use it to feed the little green snakes and the black tigers..." Gu Qing was a little confused.
There are hundreds of thousands of elixirs in this storage bag, but they are all first-grade elixirs. Even if they are sold, they will not be exchanged for many spiritual stones.
For Gu Qing, it was really a waste of time. He had time to sell these pills, so he might as well practice a little longer.
'Lin Tingxue, in the summons two months ago, said that she had reached the eleventh level of Qi refining, and that she had the spiritual liquid that is a specialty of the stone monument space. She did not need these erysipelas pills... Well, let's use two of them. Separate the first-grade mid-level elixirs above the Dao elixir pattern and give them to Lin Tingxue. "
'As for the black tiger and the little green snake... forget it. "
Gu Qing took out a storage bag again, and from the hundreds of thousands of elixirs, he quickly separated out more than 3,000 first-grade middle-level elixirs with two elixir patterns, and put them into the newly taken out storage bag.
Gu Qing put the two storage bags into the storage ring together, and in a flash, he came to the ground fire cave.
Combining the records in the last third of the alchemy notes and what Gu Qing had seen before, he had given up on being in the Dali territory and was preparing to obtain the two elixirs and five-color jade required to break through the alchemy formation. He was preparing to leave on the teleportation array. Here, collect a few things needed to break through the pill formation.
Gu Qing took out the black stone talisman, passed through the invisible barrier in front of the Earth Fire Cave, swayed, and arrived in mid-air in the east area of the Earth Fire Mountain Range.
He looked down at the deserted area below. His eyes were on the side of the underground fire cave he rented. He glanced at another underground fire cave and saw the thin female cultivator in front of this underground fire cave again.
This time, the skinny female cultivator was still cleaning the alchemy furnace.
However, Gu Qing could see that although the alchemy furnace he cleaned was still only a low-grade magical artifact, it was not the same as the previous one.
'The previous alchemy furnace... the furnace exploded? "
Gu Qing looked down at the thin female cultivator who was still cursing and struggling to clean the alchemy furnace.
From this thin female cultivator, Gu Qing felt a lively vitality. The silence of the past three years was swept away, and he was in a good mood.
The so-called, sitting in the Guanzhong for a long time makes the Qi dry.
The general meaning is that if you stay in seclusion for a long time, the breath around you will lose vitality and become lifeless, which is not conducive to practice.
'It's fate..." Gu Qing nodded, and with a flash of inspiration in his hand, he took out the storage bag containing hundreds of thousands of first-grade elixirs, and flew to the skinny female cultivator.
The thin female cultivator looked up and saw a figure standing against the light in front of her. She immediately took a few steps back alertly, fully alert, and placed one hand on the storage bag at her waist.
"Senior...Senior!" Her vigilance only lasted for less than half a breath. After seeing Gu Qing's appearance clearly, she succumbed, stood still, clasped her fists and saluted.
"Haha, I am destined to be you, and I happened to give you some small gifts today." Gu Qing said with a smile.
Immediately, he threw away the storage bag containing hundreds of thousands of low-level elixirs as if throwing away garbage: "I will give some of the elixirs here to this little friend. I hope that I will encourage you to practice."
The dark face of the thin female cultivator was a little confused.
"Huh?" Although she was confused, she obviously had no right to refuse the gift from her predecessor.
She took the storage bag that Gu Qing threw at her.
She didn't even check the bag - after all, she was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and she didn't have spiritual consciousness yet, so she couldn't find out what was in the storage ring.
"Thank you, senior, for your generous gift."
She bowed her fists to Gu Qing again honestly, but before the salute could be completed, Gu Qing had already smiled at her and disappeared from her eyes as if evaporating.
"Humph, what kind of broken elixir is this? No one cares about it. The elusive guy is so scary..." The thin female cultivator cursed a few times in her heart and tugged at the old storage bag in her hand.
Although she was slanderous, the thin female cultivator actually had some expectations.
She quickly glanced around, put away her alchemy furnace, and returned to the underground fire cave. She looked at the storage bag in her hand with gleaming eyes, injected spiritual power, and tipped it forward.
Wow!
The thin female cultivator felt as if her spiritual power was out of control. She was sucked into the storage bag and half of it was gone in the blink of an eye.
Just when she was secretly shocked.
A huge amount of elixirs poured out of the storage bag like a tide, sending her flying into the air and doing some somersaults. Then her thin body was submerged in hundreds of thousands of elixirs.
She got her head out of the elixirs and looked at the elixirs that filled half of the Earth Fire Cave, dumbfounded.
Among these pills, there were some that she had taken before, some that were beyond her reach, and some that she had never seen before... For a moment, she even thought she was dreaming, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time. When she came to her senses, she pinched herself several times, rolled her eyes and almost fainted.
"That rascal……"
"Is he my long-lost biological father..."
She was lying on hundreds of thousands of pills, with a happy smile on her dark little face. Recalling Gu Qing's face, her heart had become a little numb after experiencing the previous shock and ecstasy.
"There are so many pills, we can't just leave them like this..."
Even if it were to go wrong, she would be so distressed that she would vomit blood!
The thin female cultivator climbed up and, like a hard-working bee, began to count the elixirs. While counting, she put the elixirs back into the storage bag.
On the side of the Earth Volcanic Mountains.
The giant peak where Chilingfang is located is halfway up the mountain.
Gu Qing's steps stagnated for a moment, and he looked at the strange female foundation-building cultivator guarding one side. He only glanced at it and then looked away.
'That man once said that he would leave after three years. Now that three years have passed, it seems that he has returned to Luoyan Valley... Luoyan Valley, the Luo Wanling who was killed before, and the female nun who set up a stall who tricked me, They all seem to be monks from Luoyan Valley..." Gu Qing continued to climb upwards, ignoring the strange female foundation-building cultivator who was guarding the place and casting doubtful eyes on her.
"Is this fellow Taoist looking for Senior Brother Qi who was guarding here before?" The strange female foundation-building cultivator asked with a gleam in her beautiful eyes.
Gu Qing paused in his steps and looked sideways at the female cultivator again. Her eyes turned into a clear red color, and her pupils turned into a faint golden color.
From a few hundred feet away, Gu Qing could clearly see the female cultivator guarding here, wearing a green skirt. Her cultivation aura was at the second level of Foundation Establishment. Her skin was fair and delicate, like jade, and she had a pretty face. There is still some vitality left, so he must not be very old.
"Your Excellency, how you are like Meng Lang is somewhat different from the description given by Senior Brother Qi." The woman frowned, shrank her figure, and said displeasedly.
"I've offended you so much, please Haihan." Gu Qing smiled softly and hugged the female cultivator from afar.
"I wonder, what message did Fellow Daoist Qi leave for XX?" Then, Gu Qing took advantage of the situation and asked. xь.
The female cultivator in green skirt responded slightly coldly:
"Senior Brother Qi said that if you meet someone who looks like this fellow Taoist, tell that person, 'An old friend bids farewell to the west, the vast autumn moon is millions of miles away, old dreams from the past, flying dragons and seas talk about glory, dragons and tigers meet to make the true elixir, eight scenes return "Since Zhao Wusheng, we will not meet each other anywhere in the world, and we will come and go in the same fairyland." He asked the man to look for him outside Luoyan Valley. "
After saying that, the nun in the green skirt stopped talking.
