hiss! Lu Xiaotian felt a stabbing pain in his brain and quickly withdrew his consciousness that was acting on the storage bag.
Lu Xiaotian looked at the black storage bag in surprise. Logically speaking, the old man in black robe had already wiped out his soul by him. It should not be a problem to open this storage bag. However, when he used his spiritual consciousness to open it, he still encountered a problem. To the cold spiritual attack attached to the storage bag like a poisonous snake.
Maybe the old man in black robe still has some unsolved secrets, but now that the other party has lost his soul, I'm afraid this secret will be silenced forever.
What a pity for that golden flying sword. Lu Xiaotian smacked his lips, but he was satisfied with today's battle.
At this time, the old man in black robe has been eliminated, and he can make reasonable use of the mysterious space in his body. In addition to leaving an empty storage bag on his body for show, the remaining spiritual objects have been sent to the barrier.
After doing this, Lu Xiaotian held his chin. Before, he was only at the second level of Qi Refining. Even if there was a sufficient supply of pills, it would take several years to reach the fifth level.
But now he is at the fifth level of Qi Refining. The "Hunyuan Jing" in hand can only be practiced to the middle stage of Qi refining, so it is urgent to obtain the techniques for the later stage of Qi refining.
It's just that a copy of the late-stage Qi-Refining Techniques in the store basically costs around 40 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones. An ordinary monk in the Qi-refining stage can barely afford a copy of the late-stage Qi-Refining Techniques by relying on his daily income. Luo Yuan even paid for it. A certain amount of debt. Now he only has eight low-grade spiritual stones in his hand, and the only things he can sell are more than a dozen vitality pills. Although it is a windfall, it can easily be targeted by some people who are in the late stage of Qi refining, or even those who have reached the Great Perfection of Qi refining. This is extremely disadvantageous for later venturing into the Moon Mountains and collecting the spiritual objects needed to join the sect. What's more, we need to collect the elixir formulas for the middle and later stages of Qi refining later, which will require a lot of spiritual stones.
Going out to find work, the spiritual stones earned in a month, excluding various expenses and for cultivation, will probably take a long time to raise, which will undoubtedly affect cultivation.
However, Lu Xiaotian thought that in Wangyue City, for those who could refine weapons, raise spiritual beasts, or make elixirs, know how to grow low-level spiritual grass, or know how to make talismans, various workshops and shops offered good prices.
It just so happens that there are more than a dozen purple spirit grasses in the barrier, which can still regenerate and can be used to refine Qi Gathering Pills. Lu Xiaotian thought about it and decided to start with alchemy.
Immortal cultivators spend a lot of money on elixirs, but they can still meet their own needs. Even if the effect of using Qi Gathering elixirs is slightly less, it is still better than nothing. Moreover, as a middle-stage Qi-refining and junior alchemist, he would not attract too much attention from others when he sold Qi-gathering pills.
After thinking about this, Lu Xiaotian went out again and bought all the other herbs as auxiliary materials needed to refine the Qi Gathering Pill, and also purchased a batch of charcoal. Except for purple spirit grass, the prices of these auxiliary materials are not expensive. It only cost two low-grade spiritual stones together.
Wood charcoal is made by burning low-level spiritual wood. To refine the elixir, you can also use the energy in the monk's body to directly condense the Yang Fire, but this consumes too much energy. Once the energy in the Dantian is exhausted and the fire lord cannot catch it, the elixir is likely to become a useless elixir.
After preparing the materials, Lu Xiaotian hesitantly looked at the environment of the room. The room was too small and not suitable for alchemy. But besides this room, he had no other place to use.
I can’t care about that much anymore, I’ll practice first and then talk about it. Thinking of this, Lu Xiaotian became worried.
Take out the alchemy furnace that you bought from Luo Qing before. There are purple and yellow stripes on the alchemy furnace. This is a unique pattern made of purple black copper. It has a cold texture when you touch it with both hands. Three arcs. The small tripod on the ground is supported by its small shaped feet.
He had memorized the recipe for the Qi Gathering Pill and started a fire according to the steps. The spirit wood charcoal burned at a very high temperature and quickly burned the small cauldron red. Lu Xiaotian followed the steps and put several auxiliary ingredients into it one after another, reducing the amount of charcoal. When a subtle fragrance came from the small hole in the lid of the small cauldron, Lu Xiaotian took out another purple spirit grass and put it in.
After a while, a strange fragrance rose from the cauldron, and Lu Xiaotian was shocked. It was exactly the same as the fragrance of the Qi Gathering Pill. However, according to the prescription of the pill, it was just the purple spirit grass in the furnace that turned into juice at this time. The time for opening the furnace must be If the medicine is properly grasped and opened too early, the medicinal properties will be lost before the medicine takes shape. The potency of the refined elixir is greatly reduced. If it is opened late, if the refining time is not enough, it will be refined into a useless elixir.
Chi-------
Suddenly, the aroma of the medicine in the small cauldron stopped abruptly, and a choking stench emerged.
Oops, I just paid attention to the time to open the furnace to release the elixir, and forgot to control the heat. The firepower was too high, and the temperature in the cauldron was too high, so the unformed elixir liquid was directly burned to waste.
Bang bang
The door was slammed loudly. "Open the door, open the door! What are the people inside doing?"
"This smells like the elixir has been refining to waste."
"You're so ignorant. Refining elixirs in such a small space would be useless if you don't do it."
Several monks who were in the early stage of Qi refining and stayed in this inn were talking sarcastically.
"Ahem"
Lu Xiaotian opened the door, and there was a smell of paste, as well as the high temperature of the burning spiritual wood charcoal. The waiter in the inn choked and coughed violently. It took him a while to regain his breath. He didn't have time to see Lu Xiaotian's appearance clearly. Then he loudly accused, "The inn is for people to live in, not a place for messing around. What did you do in there? If the whole inn is burned down, can you afford to pay for it?"
"Go, you are not welcome in our inn, and you are not allowed to come to this inn again!"
The movement in the inn soon alerted the shopkeeper. In view of the bad influence brought by Lu Xiaotian, he almost burned down the inn. The shopkeeper was shocked and angry and drove Lu Xiaotian out. Seeing that Lu Xiaotian was already a monk in the middle stage of Qi refining, he didn't say "get out". But the meaning behind the words is almost the same.
Lu Xiaotian put away the alchemy furnace and came out of the inn in embarrassment. He looked at the inn angrily. What's the big deal? He didn't really burn down the inn. He thought bitterly in his heart.
"Just an ordinary casual cultivator wants to become an alchemist. He is so ambitious." There were other cultivators on the roadside who saw the smoke coming from the inn. After knowing what happened, they shook their heads and left.
"Hey, isn't this Brother Lu?"
A familiar voice came from the crowd. When Lu Xiaotian heard the sound, he looked and saw that it was the Luo brothers and sisters walking this way.
"Brother Lu, what's going on? This store is so unreasonable. I'm going to argue with him." Luo Yuan said very generously, but soon Luo Yuan reacted and said in surprise, "Brother Lu, your cultivation level how?"
"I was at fault in this matter." Lu Xiaotian pulled Luo Yuan awkwardly, and seeing his shocked look, explained, "I used some tricks before, but now is my true cultivation. .”
Then Lu Xiaotian briefly talked about the inn.
"I see. So Brother Lu has nowhere to go now. How about moving to our place and staying with us?" Luo Qing said enthusiastically after hearing this.
"With you guys?" Lu Xiaotian frowned.
"That's it." Luo Qing continued.
It turns out that it is very troublesome to rent a place for casual cultivators in Wangyue City, and renting an inn alone is very disadvantageous, so I rented a small courtyard together with a few other close friends. We have four rooms together and only need ten spiritual stones a month for space. It is larger than an inn and has a small courtyard. It happened that a friend who entered the Moon Mountains last time died unfortunately, so a room was left vacant. Although the price is slightly higher than staying in an inn, the stay is more comfortable. And it’s not as crowded as an inn.
Lu Xiaotian was a little moved, but after thinking about it, he still felt it was inappropriate. He had some secrets that he didn't want others to know. Even raising shadow ants is like this, so that they can unexpectedly defeat the enemy at critical moments. I thought to myself that I still have a lot of spiritual talismans on hand. If I sell some of them, I can solve the spiritual stone crisis at hand. So he refused, "No, I still have some spiritual stones in my hand, and I want to rent a small courtyard alone."
"Brother Lu is really generous when renting a small courtyard by himself. I know there is a courtyard not far from us. If Brother Lu wants to, you can go and have a look." Luo Qing smacked her tongue coquettishly, and then said.
In Wangyue City, usually except for some high-income alchemists, weapon refiners, or people in the late stage of Qi refining stage, people who are in the Dzogchen realm will rent a separate courtyard. Even in the later stage of Qi Refining, many people rented together with others.
"Thank you very much." Lu Xiaotian stopped refusing. It would take a lot of effort to find it by himself.
A few hours later, Lu Xiaotian moved into the new courtyard. It has three fewer rooms than the one at Luo Yuan's brother and sister's place, but only requires seven spiritual stones a month. The size is enough for him.
After not raising shadow ants for a while, Lu Xiaotian took out the jade pond and sprinkled dozens of animal spirit pills. Get the shadow ants out of the jade gourd. The shadow ants are dormant in the jade gourd, but they haven't eaten for a long time.
The awakened shadow ants were eating anxiously, and some even bit each other because they had eaten the same animal spirit pill while eating. It seemed that they were starving. Lu Xiaotian quickly separated the biting shadow ants.
After feeding the shadow ants, Lu Xiaotian released the leopard from the spirit beast bag.
"Ouch!" Hua Bao also held it in the spirit beast bag for too long. After coming out, he complained and then rubbed his head against Lu Xiaotian's trouser leg.
"Okay, let's go play and don't leave the yard." Lu Xiaotian patted the leopard's head and let it move on its own. The leopard has little effect on him now, but when he was weak before, if it weren't for the leopard, , I'm afraid he is already a pile of withered bones at this time. Therefore, even if he keeps them idle, he will not sell useless spiritual beasts like some other monks.
