Stuffing the last spiritual grass into the alchemy furnace, Lu Xiaotian watched the changes in the flames under the alchemy furnace, adding one or two pieces of bamboo charcoal from time to time.
When the elixir was ready, Lu Xiaotian looked overjoyed. After smelling the charming fragrance in the elixir furnace, he opened the elixir furnace at the right moment, revealing two full blue elixir pills inside.
The "Returning to Heaven Pill" was finally completed, and a hint of joy flashed in Lu Xiaotian's eyes. There was a strange movement outside the house.
"Is Fellow Daoist Lu here? I'm Lu Feng. On the order of the family leader, I invite Fellow Daoist Lu to come and explain." A respectful voice came from outside the house.
Lu Xiaotian stretched out his hand and flicked the two Heaven-Returning Pills back into the pill bottle. During this period, many monks, mainly from the three immortal cultivating families, Hu, Lu, and Yan, rushed to Wangyue City. I don’t know if it was because they felt safer because of the large number of people, or because For other reasons, he stopped and stopped along the way and seemed to be in no rush to go to Moon Moon City. Led by the three major cultivating families, there are also many casual cultivators.
For precaution, both family monks and casual cultivators need to undertake certain protective tasks. Lu Xiaotian does not want to waste time on these, so he appears as a senior alchemist. Since he has practiced the breath gathering technique, he will Because he had reached the late stage of Qi refining, no one could see his true cultivation level. As a high-level alchemist in the eyes of others, he naturally does not need to do odd jobs, set up camps, or patrol like ordinary casual cultivators. You only need to be responsible for refining a certain amount of elixirs.
Lu Xiaotian didn't mind the team's stop and go. In fact, after several battles, especially with the foreign monks and Xun Xiu, especially after using the alchemy magic weapon, he felt more and more that his magic power was not enough. Using the Alchemy Magical Artifact, with his current level of cultivation, it simply wouldn't last long. No matter how many means he has, without the support of mana, he has become a source of waterlessness. Therefore, Lu Xiaotian feels more and more the importance of Huitian Pill.
The team had been going back and forth for more than two months. Apart from occasionally refining some elixirs and healing medicines for a few cultivating families, he spent most of his time practicing and refining elixirs himself. In addition, he completely refined the Blazing Fire Sword. The fire dragon bow and arrow have also been initially refined and can be used in battle. While doing this, Lu Xiaotian also tried to refine the Pill of Return to Heaven. Perhaps because the technique of refining the pill was not mature enough, or perhaps it was difficult to refine the Pill of Return to Heaven. He tried for nearly two months in a row, but he could only refine it. One furnace is just a low-grade Heaven-Returning Pill, and I don’t know how much mana it can restore in actual combat.
Perhaps his good luck has run out after his previous ethereal state, but in any case, being able to refine the Heaven-Returning Pill also marks that he has officially become an intermediate alchemist. If he returns to Lingxiao Palace in this capacity, his status will not be lower than that of the Golden Pill monks in Lingxiao Palace. Of course, if his true alchemy level is exposed, he will probably be tightly protected by Lingxiao Palace, and Lu Xiaotian will naturally not accept it.
"Friend Daoist Lu?" the voice from outside sounded again.
"Here we come." Lu Xiaotian responded, put away the alchemy furnace, and walked outside the door. Two middle-aged men who had perfected the Qi Refining Perfection were waiting outside with smiles on their faces, even though Lu Xiaotian showed better cultivation than them. A little lower, but he already has such a level of cultivation at such a young age, not to mention he is an extremely skilled high-level alchemist. In the eyes of those foundation-building seniors, Lu Xiaotian’s weight is inferior to that of monks like them who are perfect in refining Qi. Much heavier.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I'm here to invite you on the orders of the Lu Family Master." After seeing Lu Xiaotian come out, the slightly smooth-looking man in front said politely.
"Let's go." Lu Xiaotian nodded. The smooth man's eyes flickered, and he seemed to have other ideas. However, he didn't bother to ask if the other party didn't say anything. He might take the initiative to speak after a while.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, you often come into contact with the big shots above. Do you ever know why this team stopped here for more than ten days?" Sure enough, when the smooth middle-aged man saw that Lu Xiaotian remained silent, he couldn't help himself and took the initiative to bring it up. .
"What kind of figures are these family heads? I rarely see the seniors who are in the late stage of foundation building. Usually the people who receive me are other people. As for why they stopped, I naturally don't know." Lu Xiaotian shook his head.
"I've heard a bit about it. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Lu is interested?" the smooth middle-aged man asked pretending to be mysterious.
"Tell me about it. It's certainly not an ordinary thing to make fellow Taoists so interested."
"If we tell Fellow Daoist Lu this news, Fellow Daoist Lu must agree to help us each refine a batch of Hui Yuan Dan." The middle-aged Lu Hui, who had been silent and looked a bit serious, said.
"It depends on whether the information you are talking about is valuable. If it is useless information, I will naturally not make an elixir." Lu Xiaotian shrugged.
"Of course it is valuable, even for those foundation-building monks. There may be ways to help foundation-building monks form elixirs." After Lu Feng and Lu Hui looked at each other, they made a decision and asked Lu Xiaotian A piece of shocking news was revealed.
"It has something to do with foundation building and pill formation. You two are kidding, right?" Lu Xiaotian looked suspicious. He had not heard about such important news before, and other monks were basically ignorant.
"Of course not. How can we two have the free time to joke about this kind of thing? The matter of forming pills is too far away for us two brothers. But regarding the matter of foundation building, we are already middle-aged. We will do it again in two or three years. If you don't get the Foundation Establishment Pill, you may not live for more than a hundred years in this life. You have to give it a try no matter what. Have you ever heard of Hunyuan Daozang, fellow Daoist Lu?" Lu Feng said in a very low voice.
"Hunyuan Daozang?" Lu Xiaotian narrowed his eyes. He is still practicing the Hunyuan Jing. In the past few years, he has also secretly paid attention to everything related to the "Hunyuan Jing". But since he killed that man from Chifeng Town, After several monks who wanted to kill people and steal goods, they got an incomprehensible map. In addition, only the black scales of the rickety old man became the only clue. It's just that the rickety old man is too powerful for him at this time. Cooperating with Xun Xiu is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger. Moreover, Xun Xiu now just wants to get rid of him quickly and doesn't want to cooperate with him at all.
"What is Hunyuan Daozang? I have traveled around the world and spent a lot of time in the casual cultivating world, but I have never heard of such a treasure." Although Lu Xiaotian was shocked in his heart, he pretended to be relaxed and honest on his face.
"I heard that a guy named Hunyuan Taoist stayed behind. This Hunyuan Taoist was a very powerful golden elixir monk. He later died for unknown reasons. Our brothers can't control these things, but as early as more than ten years ago, At that time, our brothers were still at the bottom of their cultivation, and we saw several groups of monks entering a secret place from a distance. At that time, they seemed to have a black key that could open the mountain sealing ban of Hunyuan Daozang. There were countless in this group of monks. Ten people, but after they came out, there were only a dozen people, and many of them were injured. I don’t know what these people did inside. Our brothers’ cultivation levels were also low, so we didn’t dare to get too close. , I only know that the dozen or so people who came out killed each other, and later some casual cultivators fought with them one after another. I saw one of the people with the key on his body was injured and escaped. He was chased and killed. He had no way out and fled to Tongtian. In the tidal cave of the lake. This Tongtian Lake is vast and connected to the sea. There are monsters and monsters in the lake. Even the powerful monks of the Golden Pill dare not go too deep."
"The tidal cave in Tongtian Lake will only appear when the tide goes down. Once the water level returns to a deep level, the lake will rise again. Even the Golden Core monk Jie Shi may not be able to escape from it. But counting time, Tongtian Lake The tide happens once every ten years, and it should be fast in recent months. It is very likely that these big families came here because of that key. If you can get the key, you can open the mountain door to Hunyuan Daozang."
A few people walked while talking. Lu Xiaotian seemed to be fascinated by what he heard, but he smiled in his heart. Listening to their stories, they actually walked to a quite remote place. Where did Lu Feng and Lu Hui want to go? He took him to the head of the Lu family, obviously just to invite him out in the name of the head of the Lu family.
"Since the key left in the tidal cave has been targeted by the three major families, or one of them, it has obviously become the possession of the foundation-building monks. Even if the Hunyuan Daozang is opened, there is no way for us to refine the energy. For the sake of a monk. If you two invite me here, it won't be of much help to you." Lu Xiaotian looked at the two of them with interest.
"Several masters and those foundation-building experts are heading for the treasures in the Dao Zang, as well as the possible existence of gold-condensing pills. We two brothers dare not think about these. But the pills that are helpful for foundation-building, or We can mix in the spiritual things. As long as there is any opportunity, we naturally cannot miss it. According to the conversation that our two brothers heard at the beginning, Hunyuan Daozang should be divided into several levels. As long as the foundation-building monks go to the higher level, We are also family monks of the Lu family. On the periphery or at the bottom, the Qi Refining monks can also get a share of the pie." Lu Feng smiled and said, "Since Fellow Daoist Lu has discovered that we two brothers who invited you here are not really the family heads. If you don't agree, our friendship may end here."
Lu Feng said it politely, but in fact, Lu Feng and Lu Hui had already restrained him one after another. If Lu Xiaotian didn't agree, the two of them would have no choice but to kill him.
"Aren't you worried that if I agree verbally now, I will go back and tell the head of the Lu family later?" Lu Xiaotian asked.
"Young Daoist Lu is a smart man. Even if you tell the head of the family, what effect will it have? The head of the family might be worried about the leak and kill him. The best result is just to put him under house arrest. Now there are already several families. The core monks are involved. If Fellow Daoist Lu still has ideas about foundation building, he naturally knows that the more things spread, the less good it will be for you." Lu Hui squinted his eyes and looked at Lu Xiaotian. "Of course, fellow Daoist Lu can cooperate with us two brothers. After entering the treasure land, we will be your most reliable allies."
"Foundation building is naturally the dream of every Qi Refining monk. But I also have a condition."
"What conditions?"
"In order to prevent you from playing tricks, I can only hand it over to you before entering the Hunyuan Daozang." Lu Xiaotian said.
"How confident are you, Fellow Daoist Lu, that you can refine the Huiyuan Pill?" Lu Feng looked at each other and said with joy. For monks who have perfected Qi refining, the Huiyuan Pill will increase the magic power if you take one pill. Being able to fully recover within half a stick of incense, a newly promoted high-level alchemist may not necessarily have a high rate of elixir success. They were worried about handing it over to the alchemist in the family, fearing that it would arouse the covetousness of others, and if others knew about Huiyuan Dan, they would also be wary of them. They also paid attention to Lu Xiaotian for a while before deciding to cooperate with Lu Xiaotian.
"Of course, we also need several spiritual objects for making alchemy. If we can provide three materials, it will be no problem to make a furnace of elixirs."
"It's so high, okay, then I'll leave this matter to Fellow Daoist Lu. We can agree to Fellow Daoist Lu's conditions. In addition, I forgot to tell Fellow Daoist Lu that the foundation-building monks have been a little busy recently. The spiritual objects and elixirs required for Fellow Daoist Lu's alchemy are all We two brothers will hand it over on your behalf." Lu Hui said with a smile.
"Since I agreed, I will naturally cooperate with you two sincerely." Lu Xiaotian nodded. Unexpectedly, these two brothers acted very carefully and actually cut off the contact between him and the Lu family's foundation-building monks. If there is any accident, I'm afraid it won't cause any disturbance. The two brothers know so clearly about Hunyuan Daozang, it may not be as they said they just saw a group of monks fighting from a distance more than ten years ago. So simple.
How can you know so many details just by looking at it from a distance? These two people must have hidden something from him, but the other party had no intention of telling him anything, and asking too many questions only aroused their vigilance. No matter how much these two people concealed it, they wouldn't be able to make any waves in his hands. Hunyuan Daozang can actually cause the foundation-building monks of three families to exhaust their efforts, which is really exciting. Now that I think about it, it may not be credible to say that the Hu family moved away. It was probably aimed at Hunyuan Daozang. Maybe there really is a secret to achieving the Golden Elixir Avenue hidden in it.
However, the fire dragon scale armor should have been refined over time. He will have to take the time to return to Moon Moon City to pick it up. There are many masters in several families. If he enters it alone, he will definitely face more crises. An extra piece of fire dragon scale armor can save his life at a critical moment.
After taking the various spiritual herbs provided by Lu Feng and Lu Hui, the total amount was as many as five. After Lu Xiaotian took the spiritual herbs, he went directly back to his temporary residence and ordered the two of them to make alchemy within this period of time. Don't bother me.
Although Lu Feng had some doubts in his heart, he was not good at alchemy, and he was also worried that disturbing Lu Xiaotian would affect the refining of the Huiyuan Pill, which was related to their direct combat power, so he could only arrange for manpower to be in Lu Xiaotian's Near the residence.
But how could a few Qi-refining monks guard against Lu Xiaotian, a foundation-building monk? It was dark that night, and after Lu Xiaotian refined two furnaces of Huiyuan Dan, he sneaked out directly.
