The foundation-building realm is the second realm of a monk, but it can also be said to be the true first realm of a monk.
Entraining Qi is just familiarity, and foundation building is the real beginning. No monk who has not established a foundation dares to say that he is an immortal cultivator. No matter how powerful the Qi-entraining realm is, they are just mortals who can use some special powers. Once the foundation is established, the spiritual energy in the Dantian will not only turn into more powerful spiritual power, but also have a lifespan of more than two hundred years. Can fly in the air.
The Foundation Building Pill is a fourth-grade elixir. Taking it can 100% help monks at the peak of the Qi Entrainment Realm build their foundation. Of course, there are also lower-level second-level foundation-building pills, but their effects are weaker and the chance of foundation-building is greatly reduced.
Mo Xie is only at the level of a first-level alchemist at best, but with a living person as a medicine guide, he can also refine second-level elixirs. Moreover, the effect of elixirs refined with living medicine is also very good, but there will inevitably be some impurities in them. But with the help of the lava flow veins here, the impurities can be removed.
Although the first-level elixir and the second-level elixir are only one level apart, their effects are vastly different. In a sect like the Luoyun Sect, perhaps the second-level elixirs are not valuable, but in these small places, the second-level elixirs are priceless treasures. Anyone who owns it will bring disaster.
"I heard that whether it is refining medicine or refining weapons, the most important thing is materials and heat, and more importantly, strength. You are just a first-level alchemist. Let's not talk about whether you have the materials. Just rely on your strength alone, and Will your spiritual fire definitely be able to refine me into a foundation-building elixir? Even if you rely on living people to refine it, with your current strength, you can only rely on my physical body to refine the second-level elixir. It's a bit childish." Xiao Ye said lightly, but his face was full of a wry smile.
Xiao Ye didn't want to lose his life here. Thinking about being made into a pill and then eaten, he felt sick just thinking about it. But now that his spiritual energy is sealed, and there is a huge gap in strength between himself and the other party, he can only persuade and hope that the other party will let him go, or delay the refining time, which will also allow him to think of ways to escape. .
Mo Xie put Xiao Ye down and shut him back into the alchemy furnace just now. Now that Xiao Ye's spiritual energy has been sealed, he is not afraid of Xiao Ye becoming a demon: "You are right, my strength is not enough, and the spiritual fire is also the lowest level." , precious materials are also quite far away from me. I am not a soul cultivator, and it is indeed difficult to refine second-grade elixirs, but with the help of this lava flow vein, coupled with your Zhiyang body, although the chance is smaller , but whether you can refine a second-grade elixir, haha... That all depends on luck."
Xiao Ye couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard it. This was like the first sentence on earth. Geniuses are often born with one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent sweat. To put it more simply, it would be words like "God bless you".
And this so-called good fortune is unintentionally luck.
The path of cultivation in the world, no matter which one, relies on 90% strength and 10% luck.
It seems that luck can be ignored, but luck cannot be explained clearly.
Some alchemists and weapon refiners are obviously unable to refine powerful and precious secret elixirs, but it is often this seemingly ethereal luck that makes them famous in one battle. There are also some monks who are obviously stupid and mediocre in talent, but because of their bad luck, they have received the inheritance of powerful monks and become astonishing.
Some people often say, "I can only help him so far. Whether he can succeed or not depends on his own luck." This undoubtedly means that the speaker himself is not sure, and it all depends on his luck.
Luck may seem unnecessary, but whether it is refining medicine, refining weapons, or practicing cultivation, this is the most important part.
Xiao Ye couldn't help but want to curse. It's really ridiculous that I have a good life to be gambled on by you. Ridiculous at the same time, there is nothing but reluctance.
It doesn't matter if you don't want to, but it's a pity that your strength is too weak. This is a world of strong people. Without strength, you can only be slaughtered by others and become the prey of others.
Xiao Ye looked at Mo Xie in front of the cauldron and saw his hands making secrets, and a strange seal appeared. The molten veins under the cauldron seemed to be boiling, and the faces of the several skeletal people stuck on the cauldron became even more terrifying at this moment. The remaining blood was poured out in one go. It flowed along the ravine on the wall of the cauldron, and the flames of the melting veins seemed to emit a kind of flame aura, sweeping over the blood as if it was killing poison.
Finally, the blood flowed into the furnace along the cracks on the furnace.
Then Mo Xie took out some more medicinal materials, looked back at Xiao Ye, held the medicinal materials in one hand, lifted Xiao Ye up with the other, and threw them into the cauldron together.
Xiao Ye just hates that now that his spiritual energy has been sealed, he doesn't even have the ability to resist and fight to the death, so he can only let it be manipulated.
Inside the furnace, Xiao Ye was still thinking when he heard a pop and saw a raging flame burning outside through the gap in the furnace.
The fire is crimson, like an erupting volcano. This is Mo Xie's spiritual fire. The initial spiritual fire was only red. Because of the lava flow here, the red flame turned into a more vivid red.
The moment the flame appeared, it spread through the gap on the furnace cauldron and enveloped the entire furnace cauldron space. Before Xiao Ye could react, he was already wrapped in the flame.
Xiao Ye thought to himself, it's over now. He didn't expect that he would die here and become someone else's pill. What a joke.
Xiao Ye's clothes were instantly destroyed by the flames, and Xiao Ye was already prepared to be burned by the fire, but he waited for a while. Xiao Ye seemed to feel safe and sound, except for the burning and scalding feeling around him. There seemed to be an extremely relaxing feeling in this feeling.
Xiao Ye opened his eyes, and there was still a sea of fire around him, but it did not affect his vision at all. Although there was a burning sensation on the body, not to mention the skin, even the hair was not damaged.
Vaguely, he found that his outer body's Gang Qi became more powerful under the burning of the flames, many times more powerful than the effects of his senior brothers' attacks on him.
"Is this the benefit of a body-refining cultivator?" Xiao Ye was confused, but Mo Xie knew that he was a body-refining cultivator, which meant that body-refining cultivators could also be refined. He immediately thought of the technique he practiced: "No, this is the Vajra Mountain and Sea. The efficacy of the sutra is unimaginable. This technique is so wonderful that even the body is not afraid of the burning of flames."
Xiao Ye was overjoyed. Now the flames could not do anything to him, but could help him cultivate his bronze body. This was undoubtedly a blessing in disguise. As long as Mo Xie cannot refine him, then he has hope of breaking out.
He looked at the surrounding scenery. In addition to the blazing fire here, he could also see the medicinal materials that had been put in, as well as the blood essence of those people.
The flames were filled with the smell of blood, and the flying blood merged with the medicinal materials. The medicinal materials are burned, transformed and melted by the flame. The impurities in them are removed by the flame and become medicinal liquid.
"This is how an alchemist refines medicine. The medicinal materials are refined through spiritual fire, and then condensed into the shape of the elixir. Finally, the elixir is baked with flames." Xiao Ye couldn't help but watch Mo Xie's process of refining the elixir. Feeling interested in this.
"Huh?"
Mo Xie, who was outside the furnace, seemed to have noticed the movement inside the furnace. The medicinal materials had been refined and the elixir was ready to be melted. He was surprised to find that Xiao Ye was still alive inside the furnace.
"It really surprises me that you are still alive after such a long time." Mo Xie said curiously, but the movements in his hands did not stop at all, and instead continued to increase the firepower.
"Old man, you can't refine me, it's better to let me go, so as not to waste your medicinal materials." Xiao Ye said lightly. Although he was not afraid of burning, he still couldn't beat this old man. This old man was half a step away. He is in the Foundation Establishment realm and is a desperado, so his strength cannot be underestimated.
"Let you go? Boy, the more difficult you are to refine, the more excited I am." Mo Xie said with a weird smile. Xiao Ye's body-refining body and the majestic power of qi and blood are the most powerful thing for him. The better the medicine is, the more difficult it is for Xiao Ye to refine it, the better the elixir will be.
Thinking of this, Mo Xie took out a pill from his arms.
Divine Fire Pill!
The initial spiritual fire of the alchemist is the lowest level of red spiritual fire. Only when it reaches the foundation building level, the color of the flame will change. The flame appears in seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Red is the lowest and purple is the highest.
The Divine Fire Pill can increase the level of flames by one level in a short period of time. The improvement of the fire level will be of great help to refining weapons and medicines, and the success rate will also be greatly increased.
When Mo Xie ate the divine fire pill, the red flames emitted from his hands turned into orange flames in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Ye, who was in the cauldron, looked at the changes in the surrounding flames and began to feel burning pain in his body. Although the difference between the first-level flame and the second-level flame is only one level, the difference between them is huge.
Although Xiao Ye was refining his body, and the red spiritual fire had no effect on him, his strength was low after all. His bronze body was only for the first time. He could resist the red spiritual fire, but he could resist the second-level orange spiritual fire. He couldn't resist anymore. Although the body is still tempering, it is still hurt more.
"No, if this continues, it will really turn into an elixir. We must find a way to break through the spirit-sealing talisman." Xiao Ye said to himself, somewhat painfully.
Xiao Ye looked at the medicinal liquid in front of him, which was refined and mixed with the essence and blood of living people, and seemed to have made a decision in his heart.
"I don't know if anything will happen, so I can only take a gamble."
Xiao Ye quickly moved his skills and used the Dragon Absorbing Sea Technique and the Vajra Mountains and Seas Sutra. Since he reached the Qi-entraining realm, he no longer needs to use those strange movements to operate the dragon-absorbing sea technique. He only needs to open his mouth, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth can enter it.
While resisting the burning and tempering of the flames, Xiao Ye swallowed all the medicinal liquid in front of him, using the power contained in the medicinal liquid to break through the spirit-sealing talisman. Only in this way could he mobilize the spiritual energy in his body.
As he swallowed the medicine, Xiao Ye instantly felt a powerful force in his body impacting his dantian, and it seemed as if there was some barrier in his dantian to resist this force. Xiao Ye controlled this power with all his strength and hit his dantian with force.
Mo Xie outside was silent in the process of refining the medicine, and did not notice Xiao Ye's movement at all.
