The siege of the city gradually cooled down in Xian'an City, and the focus of discussion in Xian'an City now became the Lin family.
Because, news suddenly came out from the Lin family that Lin Tianhao resigned as the head of the family and was replaced by Lin Zhengtao. At the same time, the elders of the Lin family underwent a major change and were replaced by a group of young, capable, responsible and motivated people.
Moreover, the Lin family also cut off an arm, expelled all the clan members of the late great elder Lin Tianfang, and strictly ordered them not to set foot in Xian'an City again for the rest of their lives.
This series of actions by the Lin family showed that a major change had occurred in the Lin family. Lin Tianfang's lineage was expelled, and the news of Lin Lang's death was confirmed.
However, the Lin family also released news that a mysterious strong man had moved into the back of the Lin family. A series of measures taken by the Lin family were driven by this mysterious strong man.
As a result, someone who was curious or had ulterior motives sneaked into the back of the Lin family, only to be beaten to the point of crying by a mysterious masked man. Moreover, they also faintly saw the huge Yuan Beast in the back hill of the Lin family, and heard the Yuan Beast's neighing. After a few days, no one dared to step into the back of the Lin family. The entire Xian'an City knew that the Lin family really had a mysterious and powerful person as their backer.
Liu Sanguan had long known that Lin Lang was dead through his own channels. He had already considered starting a war with the Lin family, but after learning that a mysterious and powerful person was in charge of the Lin family, he had to temporarily give up the idea.
Although Lin Yang agreed to return to the Lin family, he told the Lin family not to reveal the news of his return to the outside world. In fact, except for Lin Tianhao and the family elders and other senior family members, most of the Lin family members did not know that Lin Yang had returned to the family tree. The reason why Lin Yang did this was because he had a vague hunch that he and the Dark Alliance would confront each other sooner or later. According to the Dark Alliance's behavior, if the Dark Alliance knew that Lin Yang had returned to the family, the Lin family would be killed.
After using thunderous means to deal with some people who broke into the back of the Lin family, the back of the Lin family became completely quiet, and Lin Yang began his alchemy plan.
Soon, a variety of strange smells wafted out from a mountain valley behind the Lin family every day. Occasionally, there would be a burst of fragrance, but most of the time it smelled like burnt food. Sometimes on windy days, you can smell a faint burnt smell even in the Lin family mansion.
After Lin Tianhao retired from his position as head of the family, he chose a place in the back hill of the Lin family to build a small wooden house and lived in it. Apparently he planned to spend his remaining years here. However, Lin Tianhao was very sensible. He knew that Lin Yang didn't want to see him. His cabin was far away from Lin Yang's courtyard. No matter what happened over there, he didn't bother to ask. Even if he occasionally went to Lin Siyuan's grave, he would always walk around Lin Yang's courtyard and never seek to offend Lin Yang.
It was rare for Lin Yang to live in the back hill of the Lin family with peace of mind. Every day he was either practicing or refining elixirs. The days passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, a month passed. Lin Yang's state of the ninth level of the Ning Yuan Realm became more and more stable. He was already vaguely aware of the situation. He can feel the bottleneck of the Condensing Yuan Realm. As long as he breaks through this bottleneck, he can become a Yuan Xiu of the Yuan Ji Realm. However, before that, he had to synthesize and upgrade the five-grained elemental elixir.
There was no big progress in Yuan Xiu, but in terms of physical and mental cultivation, Lin Yang made great progress. After using up the essence and blood drawn from the three-eyed black panther, Lin Yang successfully upgraded his physical cultivation to the silver body. In the middle stage of the realm, as long as the Mad Blood Tyrant Body Technique is activated, all the flesh and blood will turn to silver, which is weird and powerful. In terms of mind, due to his continuous practice of the "Imperial Beast Order", he has been able to condense the three-star Imperial Beast Order, although it is still a little reluctant. But he is already confident that most Yuan beasts below level three can be conquered.
What made Lin Yang most gratified was that after a month of squandering, when most of the spiritual herbs on his body had been squandered, he finally succeeded in refining a second-grade elixir.
"Don't rush to refine the Yuan Ji Dan now. Once all the spiritual grass for practicing is used up and the level of the second-grade alchemist is stabilized, it won't be too late to start refining it." Lin Yang looked at the round and plump second-grade alchemy in the alchemy furnace. Tasting the elixir, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
The second-grade elixir refined by Lin Yang is the rejuvenating elixir, which can quickly replenish and restore the power of the mind after taking it. Using it in conjunction with the Imperial Beast Order, Lin Yang had the urge to subdue a third-level Yuan Beast. However, there is always an impulse. How dare Lin Yang conquer the third-level Yuan beast now. After Chen Shu's assassination, he knew that the third-level Yuan beast with a strength equivalent to the Hundred Spin Realm Yuan Xiu was not within his ability. Coveted.
After putting away the recovery pill, Lin Yang was about to clean up the residue in the pill furnace and prepare to refine the next potion of pills, when he suddenly discovered a thin crack on the pill furnace.
"Fortunately, I asked Nalan Yuduo for a pill furnace." Lin Yang directly threw the cracked pill furnace aside and replaced it with another new one.
Refining elixirs not only consumes spiritual herbs and elixirs, but also wastes the elixir furnace.
For example, the alchemy furnace that Lin Yang threw away just now was considered good in Baoli Pavilion, and the price was as high as 6,000 low-grade yuan stones, but it was used up by Lin Yang in a month. Of course, it is indeed unusual for someone like Lin Yang to burn it day and night, and it is indeed a bit excessive.
Therefore, it is true that alchemists make money, but it is also true that they burn money. If an alchemist cannot achieve success in his alchemy, he will not even be as good as an ordinary alchemist financially. For someone like Lin Yang, who wasted hundreds of thousands of spiritual grasses of low-grade Yuan Stone before refining a batch of second-grade elixirs, and used Yuan Stone to forcibly build himself up as a second-grade alchemist. This should be done in Qianzhou. It's the only one. If other alchemists found out, Lin Yang would probably have them drown in saliva.
Comparing people with each other makes people angry!
"Always changing the alchemy furnace. Firstly, it requires constant running-in with the new alchemy furnace. Secondly, it is a waste of yuan stones. If you have the chance, you must get a Xuan-level alchemy furnace." Lin Yang secretly planned.
Alchemy furnaces also belong to the category of Yuan soldiers. Dan furnaces below the Xuan level can withstand open fire burning, but they are not resistant to Yuan power. If alchemists want to refine high-quality elixirs, they usually choose to use Yuan Li or Yuan Li plus open fire to refine elixirs, but this can easily damage the alchemy furnace. If the alchemy furnace reaches the Xuan level, the endurance of Yuanli will be greatly increased and it will not be easily damaged.
However, most of the alchemy furnaces circulating on the market are yellow-level. After all, only alchemists are in need of alchemy furnaces, and alchemy furnaces are relatively unpopular Yuan soldiers. Therefore, there are not many weapon casters who are good at casting alchemy furnaces.
The two alchemy furnaces Lin Yang got from Baoli Pavilion were yellow-level middle-grade alchemy furnaces. They were standard alchemy furnaces and were manufactured in batches. The alchemy furnace in the Danxia Sect's Chiyan Peak alchemy room is a yellow-level high-grade alchemy furnace. It is better than the two alchemy furnaces in Lin Yang, but it is also a standard alchemy furnace, but it is more resistant to Yuan force.
Dan furnaces of Xuan level and above are not only heat-resistant, but also have stronger thermal conductivity, are easier to control, and have a higher order success rate. However, not to mention that the price of such an alchemy furnace is ridiculously expensive, it is rare and hard to find on the market. The veteran alchemists of the Danxia Sect usually use various resources to find weapon forgers who can refine Xuan-level alchemy furnaces, and spend a lot of money to ask them to cast special alchemy furnaces for themselves. They have high requirements for the alchemy furnaces. A little bit, you still need to find the materials for casting the alchemy furnace yourself.
Therefore, it is not easy to get an alchemy furnace of Xuan level or above.
The Xuan-level alchemy furnace is still in the imagination, and Lin Yang still has to use the yellow-level alchemy furnace honestly.
After retracting his thoughts, Lin Yang quickly replaced the new alchemy furnace and continued his alchemy plan. He was ready to make his alchemy level more stable and officially opened the Yuan Jidan.
There is no time in the mountains, and half a month passed in a flash, and Lin Yang finally gave Huo Huo all the spiritual herbs in his body except the spiritual herbs for refining the Yuan Ji Dan.
Of course, these hundreds of thousands of low-grade essence stones and spiritual herbs and elixirs were not wasted. Lin Yang also refined a lot of first- and second-grade elixirs, except that some of the spiritual herbs turned into dregs and were no longer usable. , he also used Tianhe Gourd to synthesize and upgrade those waste elixirs into finished elixirs.
"Yuan Jidan, here I come!"
Before Lin Yang started refining Yuan Ji Dan, he not only cleaned the alchemy furnace inside and out, but also cleaned himself inside and out.
For alchemists, the third level and the second level are a watershed.
The difficulty of refining third-grade elixirs is ten times higher than that of second-grade elixirs. This is why most alchemists will never reach third-grade pills in their lifetime.
With Lin Yang's current level of alchemy, it is simply a dream to refine a third-grade elixir. However, his goal is not to refine the finished Yuan Ji Dan, but the waste Yuan Ji Dan. Therefore, he had the courage to give it a try.
Lin Yang had never thought about asking others to help refine it, but in this case, he would not be able to explain the problem of water drop grass, and it would very likely expose the crazy blood beads.
Precisely because he knew the difficulty of refining Yuan Ji Dan, Lin Yang decided not to use open fire to refine Yuan Ji Dan, but to use Yuan Li to refine it throughout the process. Using Yuan Li to make elixirs can effectively control the temperature in the furnace and increase the rate of elixir formation, but it extremely consumes the alchemist's Yuan Li and mental power.
Because Lin Yang took Jinfengti and practiced the "Imperial Beast Order", his mental strength was far beyond that of ordinary people. Therefore, when refining Yuan Ji Dan, he is not too worried about his lack of mental strength. He is worried that his Yuan Li cannot keep up. Although his current combat power is not inferior to that of Yuan Xiu in the late Yuan Ji Realm, his Yuan Xiu is still at the peak of the Yuan Ji Realm, and his Yuan Li is still far less powerful than that of Yuan Ji Realm. Yuan Xiu, he didn't know if his Yuan Power could support the refining of a furnace of Yuan Ji Dan.
However, Lin Yang also had a plan. If his own Yuan Power was not enough to refining a furnace of Yuan Ji Dan, he was going to take the Yuan Rejuvenation Pill and use Yuan Stone while refining the elixir to quickly replenish his Yuan Power. However, such an approach would place a heavy load on his body and would likely damage his vitality and physique. Ordinary alchemists would not dare to take Yuan Dan and Yuan Stone while refining elixirs at the same time. However, Lin Yang is currently in the middle stage of Silver Body cultivation and possesses nine bright meridians. He not only has the courage, but also the capital.
The fresh water drop grass was taken out from the Kuangxue Bead and placed together with other spiritual grasses for refining Yuanji Dan. All the spiritual grasses were already in place.
After Lin Yang went through the recipe of Yuan Ji Dan again in his mind, he took a deep breath and gently pressed his hands on the pill furnace. The Yuan Power in his body was then continuously sent into the pill furnace through his hands. , he began to preheat the alchemy furnace.
Soon, the body of the alchemy furnace began to turn red. Lin Yang quickly stood up, opened the lid of the furnace, and put the first kind of spiritual grass into it. Then he immediately sat down and continued to send energy into the alchemy furnace.
A stick of incense time passed, and beads of sweat began to appear on Lin Yang's forehead. More than half of the Yuan Power in his body had been consumed, but the refining process of Yuan Ji Dan was far from halfway.
Without any hesitation, Lin Yang directly took a Huiyuan Pill, pressed the pill furnace with one hand to continue to transfer the Yuan Power, and held a low-grade Yuan Stone with the other hand, and ran the "Huntian Dafang Jing" to restore the Yuan. Pills and Yuan stones are quickly converted into Yuanli.
Multitasking is impossible without a strong mental power.
As time passed, Lin Yang's body began to tremble uncontrollably. He had taken ten Yuanhui Dan and used eight low-grade Yuan stones. Due to the long-term and high-intensity consumption of Yuan energy and mind, as well as the distraction of refining Yuan Dan and Yuan stones, Lin Yang was under great pressure both physically and mentally. He gradually felt some swelling and pain in his body, and his head began to feel heavy.
However, he still gritted his teeth and persisted, because the refining of Yuanji Dan had reached the final moment.
About an hour later, Lin Yang withdrew his hand from the alchemy furnace. His face was pale at this time, and the top of his head was steaming. After refining the Yuan Ji Dan, Lin Yang took a total of eighteen Yuan Ji Dan and used ten low-grade Yuan stones.
The refining result of the Yuanji Pill will be revealed after the pill furnace cools down. Lin Yang quickly sat down cross-legged and took a restoration pill as soon as possible. His mental power was also seriously consumed and he was a little drowsy and needed to recover. Magic elixir to aid recovery.
After a while, the alchemy furnace cooled down, and a strong burnt smell came out from the gap in the furnace cover, indicating that the alchemy had failed. But Lin Yang did not show any disappointment, because the failure of alchemy was something he expected. Whether there is any waste elixir that has been formed is what Lin Yang is concerned about.
Lin Yang gently opened the lid of the alchemy furnace with an anxious mood. As soon as the lid was opened, a thick smoke rushed out from the alchemy furnace, with an almost suffocating burnt smell, which turned Lin Yang's white face into a black one, and made him cough repeatedly. .
When the burnt smell dissipated slightly, Lin Yang poked his head into the alchemy furnace and saw that there was nothing but elixir slag in the alchemy furnace.
Lin Yang sighed. He worked exhaustingly for an hour, but it turned out that his work was in vain. Although he had expected it, he was still a little disappointed.
"Come again! I still don't believe it! You can't even refine a waste elixir!" Lin Yang became more fierce. He wiped the black ash on his face, and before his body and mind could return to their best condition , then placed his hands on the alchemy furnace again and started refining the next furnace of Yuan Ji Dan.
