What Cheng Ling was planning to refine was naturally the Immortal Spirit Pill, because no matter the current environment or the difficulty of refining it, the Immortal Spirit Pill was the most suitable.
But just as he was about to refine it, he remembered that he did not have the ingredients for the elixir. I smiled bitterly in my heart. Now I don't even have a storage ring on me, let alone the materials. What's even more depressing is that I don't have a fairy crystal on me, so I can't afford it.
"That's all, I'll go to the mountains in a few days and collect some herbal materials."
Thinking of this, he was not in a hurry to refine the elixir, and took out the formation book to read through it. Since we are going to look for materials, we might as well collect the materials for formations and talismans as well.
There are even fewer jade slips imprinted by the formation path, only two. One records the formation experience, and the other contains several immortal formations.
Cheng Ling pondered for several hours and finally figured out the context. The difference between the Immortal Formation and the Spiritual Formation is not big, except that the spiritual source used by the Immortal Formation is more intense, and there are some changes in details. It only takes a few more experiments to set it up.
In the star world, his formation level is Grand Master. But when you come to the fairy world, the classification of grades is slightly different. Those below the Celestial Immortal Stage are collectively called Immortal Formation Masters, while those corresponding to the Celestial Immortal Stage to the Nine Heavens Xuan Immortal are called Immortal Formation Masters. The Immortal Lord to the Immortal Lord is the Immortal Formation Grandmaster, and those above the Immortal Lord are at the Grand Master level.
Each realm is divided into four smaller realms: initial, intermediate, advanced, and top. Overall, almost every cultivation realm corresponds to a level. The content of Alchemy records that Cheng Ling read basically follows the same division method. By analogy, it must be the same for refining weapons and talismans.
In fact, this division is very general, and there is no clear demarcation. The four titles of Immortal Formation Master, Immortal Formation Master, Immortal Formation Grandmaster, and Immortal Formation Grand Master are fairly obvious, but the four minor titles of Junior, Intermediate, Advanced, and Top The distinction between realms is not clear enough, and it is difficult to accurately grasp it.
Cheng Ling speculated that this classification method should be the same as that of the Star Realm. Too many inheritances of the four inheritances of the Alchemy Tool Array have been lost. It can be seen from this that some unexpected and huge changes must have occurred in ancient times, which caused these four gates to wither away.
In fact, he had always suspected that the group of ancient sword cultivators were the ones who were best at the four pillars of the Alchemy and Talisman Array. According to the experience in the Canglan Continent Sword Pavilion, ancient sword cultivation was extremely focused on the heart and the sword, and even the power of artistic conception was not adopted.
So how to maintain their extremely strong combat power, the Danfu Weapon Array is obviously some good means. It can be inferred from the Sword Ascension Pill that transforms true essence into sword essence, and the mysterious formations at the sword pavilion. As for refining weapons, he didn't believe that ancient sword cultivators didn't have the means to refine swords.
Only Fu Dao has yet to find any connection between them, but there must be a vague feeling that there must be inextricable connections among them.
Withdrawing his thoughts, he thought that he was the Grand Master of the Spiritual Formation in the Star Realm. According to the division method of the Immortal Realm, he should be regarded as the top Immortal Formation Master.
After reading through the formation books, he began to look at the records on talismans and weapon refining. The weapon refining records were read very quickly, and it was over in less than an hour. Because he does not need to fully understand it, he only needs to remember it, and he will teach it to Zhang Hu in the future after he ascends.
After all, a person's energy is limited. He has mastered three of the Alchemy Tool Arrays, so he should leave one for others to understand.
The last talisman was left, but I looked at it very carefully. After all, I only started studying after I went to the Star Realm. It was the inheritance I got from the Thousand Machines Sect, and the immersion time was the shortest.
The grade is also the lowest and can only be used to refine Void Immortal stage talismans.
But sometimes, talismans can have great effects against enemies, especially in group battles. They have played a vital role in several battles in the Star Realm. Therefore, if he has time, he will also find ways to improve.
After checking all the four inheritances of the Alchemy Tool Array, the next step is the exercises and secret techniques. To be honest, Cheng Ling paid the least attention to these two subjects and only used them as a reference. Sure enough, after checking several rubbing techniques and secret techniques, none of them aroused his interest at all.
The golden page skills are much more powerful than those recorded on the jade slips. Even if it is a secret method, there are various hidden dangers in increasing combat power in a short period of time, so don’t practice it!
Through these exercises, he had some understanding of the cultivation system of the immortal world, and his state of mind also felt a little relaxed. He believed that as long as he became familiar with the fairyland environment, his state of mind would gradually improve.
In this way, ten days passed without realizing it. Cheng Ling was finally ready to leave his residence and head to the mountains to collect ore materials.
Stretching slightly, he walked out of the room and came to Wen Lan's residence. He saw that the door was closed, and there was a sign of retreat hanging outside. He was obviously trying his best to comprehend the newly acquired skills. Cheng Ling left no disturbance and left a note outside the door, telling Wen Lan where he was going and left.
Island No. 1 is very large, and even Cheng Ling's divine consciousness, which is much higher than the same level as the Immortal Stage, cannot cover it all. Walking out of the city, breathing in the fresh air outside, my chest and lungs suddenly felt much more relaxed. Somehow, he always felt a little depressed staying in the city, as if a pair of eyes were always paying attention to him.
But he didn't go far when he found many monks on the plain outside the city. After a second thought, he realized that these were monks who obviously couldn't win the cave in the city. They had no choice but to practice nearby. After all, the plain was the closest to the city and the fairy spiritual energy was much richer.
He was speechless. The city was surrounded by mountains, and there were many free places in the mountains. But these monks don't even miss such subtle differences, because the plain is closest to the city, and the concentration of fairy spiritual energy is slightly higher than that of the mountains. Some monks even dug a cave down from the edge of the city to practice.
It seems that the ring battle more than a year later has put great pressure on them!
Cheng Ling didn't bother to pay attention and chose the mountain range to the north where there were fewer monks and walked over.
Entering the mountains, he was quite surprised by the environment inside. Perhaps because these ascended monks rarely had auxiliary skills, the herbs in the mountains grew extremely well and were almost never picked. In less than an hour, he Collected several materials for refining the elixir.
Eight-leaf clover, purple mushroom, fall flower, agave...!
He was so happy that he searched for three days in a row, sweeping through almost half of the northern mountain range, and finally collected all the materials for refining the elixir. Not only that, a lot of ores were collected along the way, and this time there were even materials for refining formation pillars and formation flags.
Unfortunately, the grade of these materials is not high. Most of them are for refining the Human Immortal and Void Immortal stages. There are very few materials for the Mysterious Immortal stage and above. I hope that I can find them when I go to the island after No. 10 in the future.
After collecting the materials, Cheng Ling stopped staying and went directly back to his residence to start refining the elixir.
The first thing he refined was the fairy elixir. At first, he was unsure. The experience of going to the Star Realm to refine the elixir at the beginning of the year was still yesterday. The interface level was different, so I was not sure whether I could refine the elixir.
Therefore, the first batch of elixirs was carefully followed step by step.
The operation took an hour, and a long series of elixir collection techniques were played, and several dull-colored elixirs came into the palm of the hand. It was obvious that this pot of elixir did not achieve the desired effect and was completely useless.
However, he was not in a hurry. He carefully replayed every step in his mind and was completely sure that it was correct in the end. Then he picked up one of the elixirs and put it into his mouth to feel its power.
The medicinal power of the elixir slowly dissipates in the body, but the medicinal power is obviously insufficient. The elixir lacks aura, and its potency is greatly lost when the elixir is condensed. Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case. Although he has just ascended, his fairy spiritual power has been completely transformed into fairy energy.
But why are the potencies of elixirs so different? His mind turned and he realized that perhaps he had made an omission when gathering spirits. The elixir required much more immortal energy than the elixir.
He did it as soon as he thought of it. He slowed down the speed of the second furnace of elixirs. When condensing the elixirs, he kept firing out the elixirs. He also set up a seal around the elixir furnace to prevent the loss of immortal energy. Waves of majestic immortal energy were injected into the alchemy furnace.
Sure enough, under the infusion of powerful immortal power, the medicinal liquid quickly turned into a sphere. Immediately afterwards, the herbal essences began to gather and were slowly matched according to the proportion of the elixir. By the end, fully formed. A strong medicinal fragrance emanated, and Cheng Ling hurriedly typed out a long list of pill collecting techniques.
Ding ding ding ding
Soon, four milky white elixirs fell into the prepared jade bottles. Cheng Ling took out one and saw that the elixir was flawless and round, with almost no black spots visible.
He was still uneasy and immediately swallowed the pill in his hand. Soon, an abundant amount of immortal energy emitted from his belly, and slowly poured into his Dantian as the skills were transferred.
A smile appeared on Cheng Ling's lips, the elixir was finally refined successfully!
With his first successful experience, Cheng Ling was even more excited. He had collected a lot of materials, which he could practice and consolidate.
According to the inheritance records of alchemy books, the most perfect state of the fairy elixir is five elixirs, and one was missing from the previous refining. Although the quality of the elixir is up to standard, there is still room for improvement.
Moreover, this method of using formations to block and lock the immortal energy is definitely not the norm. Not every immortal alchemist can also practice formations like himself. Therefore, only by refining it several times and increasing your proficiency can you ensure a solid foundation for alchemy.
In the third batch of elixirs, he failed to lock the immortal power, and the elixirs were barely refined successfully. However, there were only three completed elixirs, and the quality declined.
The fourth furnace of elixirs produced four elixirs, and the quality has improved!
The fifth furnace elixir...!
In this way, Cheng Ling was completely immersed in the knowledge of alchemy. In the past five days, he finally refined the elixir to a perfect state. I believe that elixirs of the same level will be available in the future, but the collected materials have been basically consumed.
Looking at the few dozen herbs piled on the ground, I smiled bitterly in my heart. It would be a waste of time if I had to go out and collect them every time I made an elixir.
If this doesn't work, we must find a way. Also, it’s very inconvenient that I don’t have a storage ring on me. I can’t just throw everything into the space inside my body!
While he was in a daze, there was a knock on the door. Cheng Ling turned around and opened the door, and saw Wen Lan standing outside the door with a smile and said: "Brother, I can smell the fragrance of the elixir from a distance. Could it be that the elixir has been successfully refined? Give it to me quickly. Look, it just helps me rise to the peak of human immortality!"
Cheng Ling's eyes lit up, and a brilliant plan to make money flashed in his mind.
