Lin Beichen listened silently, a hint of imperceptible emotion flashed across his face, and he couldn't help but think of the purple-robed old man he met in Tongzhou Mansion.
Unexpectedly, the purple-robed old man was also a disciple of the Xuanyuan Sect, and was also the younger brother of the ancient elder's compatriot.
No wonder that when he learned that he was a disciple of Xuanyuan Sect, he didn't show any aura of being a strong man. Instead, he was as kind as the grandfather next door and took more care of him. In the end, he even asked Tong Ming for five thousand yuan. Give him the spiritual crystal.
"It seems that my younger brother wants me to take more care of you." A hint of helplessness flashed across Elder Gu's face, and he continued: "It's just that all my disciples are alchemists, and I don't know if you have any talent for alchemy."
An inexplicable look flashed in Lin Beichen's eyes. After a moment of silence, he turned his palm over and a slightly swaying flame appeared on it.
"First-order spiritual fire?" Elder Gu shook his head slightly, obviously a little disappointed.
First level spiritual fire?
A look of confusion suddenly appeared on Lin Beichen's face.
"Alchemists in the world are divided into nine levels, from level one to level nine, and correspondingly, the spiritual fire in the hands of alchemists is also classified accordingly."
"What you have in your hand is the first-order spiritual fire. If I guess correctly, you should be able to refine first-order elixirs now, right?"
Seeing this, Elder Gu patiently explained.
Lin Beichen nodded. He had also tried to refine second-level elixirs when he was bored, but in the end he failed without any surprise.
Although "The Record of Ten Thousand Pills" is a treasured book, it only records the refining methods of all the pills in the world.
For example, his basic knowledge of alchemy to a certain extent is not recorded in the "Wandanlu", so until now, he has no way of knowing the specific reason for the failure.
"That's right. Although you are now in the spiritual vein realm, it stands to reason that you still have the strength to refine second-level elixirs."
"But the key is that your spiritual fire has not advanced yet and is still at the first level. Naturally, you cannot refine second-level elixirs."
Elder Gu stroked his beard and nodded gently.
"How can I advance?" Lin Beichen blurted out. He naturally wanted to know more about alchemy.
Although he has the classic book "The Record of Ten Thousand Pills", he can only refine first-level elixirs, and he always feels like he is guarding a treasure mountain without knowing it.
"It's not easy to say it's hard, it's not easy to say it's easy either."
"This spiritual fire is stored in your Dantian every day, and is supported by spiritual energy, making it endless."
"On weekdays, as long as you temper it with spiritual energy, the spiritual fire will naturally advance to a higher level over time. However, the premise is that you must reach the corresponding state."
"For example, I am currently in the Tianyang realm, and my spiritual fire can advance to the fourth level under my tempering, but you can only advance to the second level."
Elder Gu explained, without any hint of impatience in his tone.
He also transferred his full guilt to the young man whom his brother had entrusted to take care of.
"That's it..." Lin Beichen was slightly disappointed.
Tempering the spiritual fire requires a lot of time, and doing so will definitely affect his cultivation.
"You can't have your cake and eat it too. Besides, becoming a high-level alchemist will not necessarily slow down the progress of your cultivation."
"On the contrary, the elixirs refined by high-level alchemists are helpful to the realm to a great extent. I think you should understand this."
The ancient elder said seriously.
Lin Beichen nodded thoughtfully.
Too.
He had previously relied on a small second-level pill, the Pulse Opening Pill, to successfully open a spiritual vein and break through to the second level of the spiritual vein realm.
Although it is necessary to waste a lot of time to improve the level of alchemy, these wasted time can give generous returns in another way.
Who can tell clearly the pros and cons?
It's just a matter of your own choice.
"Actually, I hope you can make alchemy, but after all, everyone has his own ambitions. If you don't want to continue on this path, it's okay. I can make an exception and accept you." Elder Gu said in a soft voice, and his old face also showed a hint of sadness at this moment. He had a kind look, but deep in his eyes there was a flicker of expectation.
Lin Beichen was silent, thinking and weighing.
The entire bronze hall was silent at the moment.
"call……"
After a while, Lin Beichen's chest rose and fell gently, and he exhaled a long breath. His eyes no longer flickered, replaced by a look of determination.
It’s not Lin Beichen’s character to have an empty treasure mountain and don’t use it!
"Elder Gu, this disciple has decided to worship you as his teacher. He will go further on the path of alchemy master in the future. I hope Elder Gu can accept him as a disciple." Lin Beichen said solemnly, and then knelt down on his knees. A big gift.
New disciples who enter the inner sect have the right to choose an elder as their master. In addition to enjoying the resources of the sect, the master will also help the disciples to a certain extent. This is the elder's closed disciple.
Of course, the elders also have the right to refuse. In the end, if no elder can accept the new disciple, then the new disciple can only be a simple inner disciple.
"Okay, okay, good boy, you will definitely not suffer any loss if you follow me!" Elder Gu laughed proudly and stretched out a pair of slightly wrinkled hands to gently lift Lin Beichen up.
Indeed, as a fourth-level alchemist, most of the elixirs in Xuanyuan Sect are from his hands. Being his disciple, you will definitely not suffer any loss.
You can tell just by looking at Ji Ziyue. She is only a few years older than Lin Beichen, but she has already reached the Tianyin realm. Perhaps part of the reason was her own talent, but the help of the ancient elders was definitely indispensable.
"Thank you, Elder Gu!"
Lin Beichen bowed and saluted with a somewhat solemn tone, because Elder Gu was his first master in the true sense.
In the past, in the outer sect, no one would favor your resources just because of how talented you were. Basically all disciples are in a state of letting go.
"My name is Gu Tiansheng. From now on, just like Yue'er, call me master." Elder Gu smiled kindly.
"Master!" Lin Beichen called out respectfully, but the next second his expression changed as if he was a different person. He rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Master, I should give the apprentice a gift when they meet for the first time, right?" ?”
"Ahem, that's natural. Disciple, what do you want?" Gu Tiansheng said with a smile, stroking his gray beard.
"If my disciple wants to break through to the Tianyin realm like my senior sister, Master, just give me some pills that can help my disciple break through to the Tianyin realm." Lin Beichen said pitifully.
After hearing this, the corner of Gu Tiansheng's mouth suddenly twitched and said: "Do you really think that this kind of elixir that can break through the realm is just cabbage? Moreover, taking too much of the elixir that can break through will lead to drug resistance, which will cause fundamental insufficiency." Stability, the phenomenon of empty realm."
