When Cai Chenzi first heard that Tian Xiaoding had gathered the five main ingredients for refining the Yang Huan Dan, he was so shocked that he almost pulled the beard off his chin.
He confirmed again in disbelief and asked: "You mean, the five main ingredients of the Huanyang Pill are the boundless water of melting snow in June, the fire of the bottom of the sea, the snow that blooms in the cold winter, and the fire of Nirvana. Have you collected all the refining gold and the acacia soil hanging in the sky?"
Xiao Ding nodded and said, "Yes, I collected a copy of everything."
"Ah? How did you collect them all? Please tell me, kid, where have you been in the past twenty years? What have you done?" Cai Chenzi was originally a very calm old Taoist priest, but now But he also became less calm.
"Actually, my experience does not last more than twenty years..." Xiao Ding had no choice but to briefly recount his experiences in the past six months.
Some things involved his Qiankun Pot, so he couldn't describe it in detail, but only gave a rough outline of the process.
Even so, Xiao Ding's legendary experience made Cai Chenzi extremely surprised and dumbfounded.
TianXiao Ding’s narration lasted most of the afternoon.
Finally, he mentioned that his cultivation was not enough and his level of alchemy was limited. He could not refine the Yang-Returning Pill on his own. Therefore, he went to the Immortal Medicine Sect and found this place from the Immortal Medicine Sect...
It took Cai Chenzi a long time to come back to his senses. He was still immersed in the experience Xiao Ding recounted.
If it were anyone else, he would have died countless times. But when it came to Xiao Ding, a young monk who had not yet established a foundation, he miraculously survived one danger after another, and by chance, he gathered together the five main ingredients for refining the Yang Huan Dan.
What Xiao Ding didn't mention was that in the process, he not only collected the five main materials for the Huanyang Pill, but also collected enough of the five-color sacred stones to upgrade the Qiankun Pot, and successfully upgraded the Qiankun Pot.
Hearing Xiao Ding talk about the purpose of coming here, Cai Chenzi also frowned. He said to Xiao Ding apologetically: "Tian Xiaoyou, to be honest, this Yang Return Pill is a super high-level pill. In fact, I have never refined it before. If I let my master Chang Ling master refine it, the success rate will be very high, but if it is refined by me, I don’t know what to do with it."
When Xiao Ding heard that Cai Chenzi was not very sure about refining Yang Yang Dan, he felt a little hesitant. However, Master Chang Ling has gone into seclusion, and he knows this. The last time Chang Ling was in retreat, he stayed in retreat for hundreds of years. He is already a monk in the Condensation Stage. If the retreat time is short, it will definitely not have much effect on him. Therefore, without even thinking about it, Xiao Ding knew that the retreat time of Chang Ling Master this time would only be longer than last time, not shorter than last time.
As a result, the only person Xiao Ding knew who could refine the Yang-Returning Pill was Cai Chenzi. If even Caichenzi cannot be refined, then it will be even more impossible for others to refine it.
After thinking about this, Xiao Ding became determined and said resolutely: "When I went to your sect before, I heard that the master of your sect, Chang Ling Zhenren, had closed his life. I'm afraid he didn't have a hundred years to live. I won’t be able to escape seclusion. In this case, only you can still hope to refine the Yang Return Pill. I am now
Even if you ask others, there is no way to ask for it. Therefore, I still hope that senior Caichen can work hard and help me. I am very grateful! After saying that, Xiao Ding stood up and bowed to Cai Chenzi.
Caichenzi hurriedly flicked his sleeves, released his spiritual energy, helped Xiao Ding up, and said, "Since Xiaoyou Tian can trust me, I won't refuse much. However, we must make our words clear in advance, even if it is If I try to refine this Yang-returning elixir, the probability of success is only 50%. If I fail in refining the elixir, Xiaoyou Tian should not blame me!"
Xiao Ding only has one ingredient for refining Yang Yang Dan. He originally thought that this piece of alchemy material could only succeed but not fail, so he made a special trip to the Immortal Medicine Sect. Even Lu Tianshuo, who had just broken through to the golden elixir stage in Tianyao Village, could not be trusted by him.
After the Immortal Medicine Sect failed, Xiao Ding knew that there was no hope for Chang Ling.
Then I had to place my hope on Cai Chenzi. But now Cai Chenzi said that he was only 50% sure, which meant that the probability of success was only half, and the other half was failure.
If the alchemy fails, it means that the only refining material will be burned and completely wasted. And the hope of bringing Er Niu back to life was completely shattered.
If you want to collect those five alchemy materials again, it will be even harder than climbing to the sky. Unless Xiao Ding can practice to the transformation stage and reach the point where he can go to heaven and earth at will, perhaps there is still hope to rely on his memory to go to the place where he last found these five materials and collect them again.
However, even so, it is still difficult to gather together. For example, among the five materials, "Refined Silk Gold from Nirvana Fire" and "Winter Blooming Snow Tea Mi", how can they be so easy to come across?
Although Xiao Ding has planted the snow tea plant on the top of the snow peak in the Qiankun Pot, so many years have passed in the world inside the pot, but it still blooms as before, without re-rooting or bearing fruit.
That is to say, even if you want to plant this "winter-blooming snow vine", you won't be able to plant it successfully. At least such conditions are not yet met.
Such rare five materials, to be honest, Xiao Ding really didn't want to give them to someone who was unsure about refining the Yang Return Pill.
However, in this situation, besides Cai Chenzi, does Xiao Ding have any other options?
Of course Xiao Ding has no other choice. He could not find another alchemist with Cai Chenzi's level of cultivation, nor could he find anyone else whose alchemy level could match Cai Chenzi's level.
Therefore, even if Cai Chenzi made it clear to his face that there was only half a chance of success, Xiao Ding had to bite the bullet and agree.
Otherwise, he would have to wait for hundreds of years until Master Changling came out of seclusion, and then he would have the opportunity to beg Master Changling to help him make elixirs.
But Xiao Ding can’t afford to wait! Although if Master Chang Ling is willing to make the alchemy, the success rate of the alchemy will be greatly improved. However, Xiao Ding had no way of knowing how long Chang Ling would need to stay in seclusion. Is it one hundred years, two hundred years or three hundred years?
Even Cai Chenzi couldn't explain this clearly. What's more, Xiao Ding simply doesn't have the patience to wait for so many years.
Therefore, Xiao Ding can only refining
The elixir material was handed over to Cai Chenzi, and all the bets were placed on Cai Chenzi. Whether or not you can refine the Yang-Returning Pill depends on this.
So, Xiao Ding clasped his fists and said, "To be honest, Senior Caichen, I only have one copy of this material. If I refine it myself, it will be 100% unsuccessful. Now, except for Senior Caichen, I can no longer find any other materials." There are two alchemists who are stronger than you. Therefore, I will hand over all the materials to senior later. Senior, feel free to refine them. It is better to succeed. If not, it is God’s will. I don’t blame senior. ." After saying that, Xiao Ding still sighed secretly.
Cai Chenzi nodded, and then said: "It's best to say it face to face. Regardless of our friendship, after all, your materials are too rare. Once they are discarded, they will be difficult to find again. So. , I don’t dare to be careless!”
Xiao Ding clasped his fists again and said, "As long as seniors try their best, I can accept the final result whether it succeeds or not."
Caichenzi regained his usual calm demeanor, stroking his beard and said, "It's fine if I help you refine the Yang-Returning Pill, but I I have never practiced before, and this is my first time to refine a super high-level elixir. Based on my level of alchemy, I estimate that it will take at least half a month to completely refine it. Therefore, I need to retreat for at least half a month. It only takes time. And on the front line of Dakang City, there are several other cities that need me to supply them with some high-end healing medicines or spiritual energy pills, detoxification pills..."
"What do you mean...?" Xiao Ding couldn't help but ask.
"What I mean is that during my retreat, I will leave the supply of elixirs to Dakang City and several other cities to you for the time being. Use your level of alchemy to refine some mid-to-high-level healing elixirs. And spiritual energy pills, detoxification pills, etc., you probably don’t have
Have a problem? "Caichenzi said slowly.
Xiao Ding nodded and replied: "No problem. I often refine these commonly used elixirs myself, so I am already familiar with them. They are the elixirs I am best at refining." At this point, Xiao Ding suddenly remembered As if wondering, he asked, "It's just that if I refine the elixirs to supply these cities, can the monks in these cities trust me?"
Caichenzi stroked his beard and said, "Of course I can trust it. Why can't others trust the elixirs taken from my house?"
Xiao Ding said humbly: "I'm afraid of ruining the reputation of my seniors."
Cai Chenzi laughed loudly and said: "You are not afraid that I will destroy your elixir, so how can I worry about reputation? Hahaha!"
Xiao Ding also smiled and said: "Then it's settled, you go into seclusion and help me refine the Yang-Returning Pill, and I'll help you supply the pills to the cities on the front line."
Cai Chenzi looked at the sky outside and saw that it was approaching evening, so he said to Xiao Ding: "Okay, even if we have confirmed the alchemy agreement between us, no one can go back on it. But, alchemy We still have to put things aside first. You are still in the Qi training period, so you are probably hungry, right? By the way, is your true cultivation really in the Qi training period?"
Xiao Ding nodded and said: "It is true that I am still in the Qi training period. I have tried to build the foundation many times without success. By the way, I just want to ask you for advice. What is the reason why I cannot succeed in building the foundation?"
