In the cramped cave, a young man was sitting cross-legged with his eyes slightly closed.
The moon-white Taoist robes swelled and crawled with the unique breathing rhythm of the chest.
He has a handsome face and a slightly raised mouth, which seems a little cynical, but he is also perseverant, as if he will continue to walk on optimistically no matter how many difficulties and hardships there are on the road ahead.
Suddenly, his eyelids blinked and he slowly opened his eyes.
There was a thoughtful look in his clear eyes.
"The concentration of spiritual energy here far exceeds that of the Siheyuan, and is slightly better than where Tianxiang Tower is."
"Perhaps, it is no less than the main first-order spiritual vein where the Jade Cauldron Sword Pavilion is located."
"The blessing effect that practicing under this concentration of spiritual energy brings to me is extremely extraordinary!"
With just a brief calculation, he knew that he had doubled the cultivation efficiency based on the standard of four times the five spiritual root qualifications.
Five times the cultivation efficiency has completely surpassed the three spiritual root qualifications. I wonder how big the gap is compared with the dual spiritual root monks?
Luo Chen didn't know the cultivation efficiency of the dual spiritual root monks because he had no one to refer to.
There are many casual cultivators in Dahefang, and most of these casual cultivators are Three Spiritual Roots and Four Spiritual Roots cultivators.
Therefore, he has no friends in this area, not even anyone he knows...
"Actually there is one, but I've never seen it."
Xiaohu——Qin Yuanjiang.
The son of Qin Liangchen and his wife, he has the spiritual roots of gold and water.
The child I had only heard of by name, but had never seen.
Now, the other party is already a high disciple of Luoyun Sect, and there is only hope for foundation building in the future.
I have never inquired about the child's specific cultivation level.
Moreover, when it comes to issues such as recruiting disciples and checking qualifications, Qin Liangchen and his wife have not given him any elixirs since he was a child. At most, they use medicinal baths, food supplements, etc. to improve each other's foundation.
However, these are innocuous little things.
Luo Chen only needs to know that practicing in this place will be of great benefit to him.
"It seems that I will have to find more reasons to stay in the Alchemy Hall in the future."
"There is no need to give up the rent for a house in a courtyard house. After all, it is an inner city and safety is guaranteed."
Nowadays, the rent of ten spiritual stones a month is no longer a burden to him.
It’s just a Qi-nourishing pill!
Luo Chen smiled when he thought of the Qi Nourishing Pill.
"Such a great place and such an opportunity, we can't let it go."
Take out a soothing incense and a qi-nourishing pill.
Burn incense, take pills, and refine Qi.
….
Early the next morning, Luo Chen woke up from his meditation state.
Standing up and stretching, Luo Chen couldn't help but groan.
comfortable!
This is the most comfortable time he has practiced since time travel.
There is sufficient spiritual energy in the outside world, there are Qi-nourishing pills inside that continuously transform spiritual energy, and the Grandmaster-level Changchun Kung is constantly operating, perfectly fitting his body.
The aroma of the soothing incense allowed his soul to survive the mental calamity and become stronger and tougher in a short period of time.
Coupled with the replenishment of Peiyuan Spiritual Liquid during this period, the energy accumulated in the body is also huge enough.
With so many conditions and blessings, he was like a starving beggar who finally enjoyed a full banquet.
My mouth was full of oil after eating!
"After one night of practice, the progress bar jumped from 6 to 8, which is a huge increase of two progress bars!"
If calculated according to this progress, the previously estimated three months to break through to the seventh level of Qi Refining can now be reduced to at most two months.
So scary!
No wonder there are so many young geniuses in those big sects.
Stay in the first level spiritual vein place every day, or even the second level, third level spiritual vein place.
Even without taking any pills, the spiritual power in the body can soar.
Especially in the early and middle stages of Qi refining, the faster you advance, the more time you will have to prepare for foundation building in the later stages of Qi refining.
There is no need to worry about insufficient lifespan like casual cultivators.
"Sister Xiuxiu said that the best age for a monk to break through the foundation building is before the age of sixty. After the age of sixty, the monk's energy and blood begin to decline, and the chance of failure in the foundation building will be greatly increased."
"This alone has blocked many casual cultivators who have spent their entire lives advancing to the ninth level of Qi refining."
Luo Chen felt sad for those casual cultivators.
After finally completing Qi refining, he had to face unfavorable situations such as insufficient longevity and declining Qi and blood.
Even if you get a foundation building pill, I'm afraid it will end in failure.
"There's no way I'm going to end up in that situation!"
The original joy of obtaining the Spirit Vein Cave was washed away a lot.
Even if you can break through the seventh level of Qi Refining in two months, the spiritual power required for each level after that will only be more!
Especially at the ninth level of Qi Refining, many casual cultivators are trapped and die in this realm.
Just like his brother Qin, isn't it the same now?
There is obviously a Foundation Establishment Pill. Although it is kept in Mi Shuhua's hands, there is no reason to get it back.
The reason is very simple. He, Qin Liangchen, has not yet perfected his Qi refining and is not qualified to build a foundation.
"Besides, my cultivation speed is not normal!"
"Anshenxiang, the quantity is not enough!"
Mi Shuhua promised him a box of calming incense a month.
And there are only twelve plants in one box.
Without soothing incense, you can only practice Changchun Kung two or three times a day. If you do it too much, you will feel exhausted and exhausted.
In addition to the soothing incense, the quantity of Qi-nourishing pills is also slightly insufficient. Four bottles of Qi-nourishing pills are only enough for twenty days.
Luo Chen was thinking about these things, but he was doing other things on his hands.
A complete large stone seals the spiritual vein cave to ensure that the spiritual energy does not leak out too much.
On the way out, the narrow mine tunnel was blocked with stones.
Even if you know this method, you can't completely prevent the leakage of spiritual energy, but it can be blocked a little more.
"Elixirs and soothing incense, I'm afraid they are not very good. I got them from Mi Shuhua."
"Although those reasons and excuses are different every time, if there are too many of the same things, they will become annoying."
"But now that I have a small fortune, I can buy it myself."
"There is one more thing I need to consider!"
Luo Chen's eyes flashed, and a sense of crisis came to his mind.
That is, after all the problems of cultivation resources have been perfectly solved, the cultivation speed of the Five Spiritual Roots is faster than what ordinary people realize, and it can easily cause trouble.
Neither the system nor this spiritual vein cave should be exposed!
"The Qi Condensing Spirit Technique requires more effort!"
…
"Good morning!"
"Good morning, Hall Master Luo!"
"Hello, Hall Master Luo!"
This is Luo Chen's first day "going to work" so early.
But it's obvious that there are many people ahead of him.
The medicine hall monks stationed here have already begun to get busy.
When the genius is bright, they control the magic weapon and hover in the low altitude.
Facing more than a dozen medicinal fields in the valley, "clouds and rain" are arranged.
It's a bit exaggerated to say that the clouds are causing the rain, but the scene is indeed very similar.
"Is this Xiao Yunyu Jue?"
Luo Chen squatted on the ridge of the field and watched curiously as they made the rain.
A monk landed, wiped his sweat, and smiled.
"Master Luo is very insightful. This is indeed Xiaoyunyu Jue. It is a spell taught by Xuantang. It is suitable for cultivating water-attribute herbs."
After his explanation, Luo Chen knew why he had to release the spell early in the morning.
Xieyue Valley is a place of mineral veins and is far away from the Lancang River, so the water vapor is not very dense here.
Normally, these water-attribute herbs require a large amount of water-attribute aura.
Therefore, they had to take advantage of the low temperature to cast spells.
"It's a pity that the grade of the spiritual field here is too low to cultivate better medicinal herbs."
Luo Chen asked curiously: "Isn't there a spell to improve the level of the spiritual field?"
The monk smiled bitterly and said: "Yes, there are, but we don't know how to do it, and neither do the gangs."
"oh?"
"It is said that the Five Elements Divine Sect has great experience in cultivating spiritual plants, and has developed a lot of spells related to spiritual plants and spiritual fields."
"What about?"
"Let's talk about improving the level of the spiritual field! They have a second-level spell called Binghuo Burning Wasteland, which can burn many spiritual trees and mineral materials into ashes and then integrate them into the spiritual field. Come once or twice a year to cooperate with the spiritual field. In the land of veins, the level of the spiritual field will continue to rise."
Luo Chen was stunned, Binghuo Burning Wasteland Technique?
"In the Five Elements Divine Sect, it is said that there are dozens of fourth-level spiritual fields, all of which are upgraded. There seems to be a huge fifth-level spiritual field."
The monk shook his head, his eyes showing longing.
"And this Binghuo Burning Wasteland Technique is just the tip of the iceberg. Such as Taiyin Yimu Biogas Technique, Guishui Compost Technique, Gengjin Kusanagi Sword Technique, etc., are all improved from high-level spells."
"If I can master a second-level spiritual cultivation spell, even a simplified version, I can become a second-level spiritual cultivation husband."
Lingzhufu is the most common profession among the various arts of cultivating immortals.
In any force, there will be more or less spiritual cultivators.
Unless it is the kind of demonic sect that does not engage in production, it will not train or hire spiritual husbands.
The monk in front of Luo Chen named Yuan Dongsheng is one of the three spiritual cultivators in the medicine hall. He manages several spiritual fields by himself.
"Hall Master Luo, are you interested in cultivating spiritual plants? Do you want me to teach you how to do it?"
Luo Chen stood up quickly, what a joke!
I’m already very tired from refining elixirs, and you still want me to farm?
"No, let's discuss it next time we have the chance."
After saying that, he ran away in a hurry.
Yuan Dongsheng watched from behind, and it was a pity that it was rare to find a fellow Taoist who was willing to discuss spiritual plants with him.
But there is really no need for the other party to learn these things. How noble is an alchemist?
One hundred first-level spiritual cultivators are not as noble as one alchemist.
After all, it is one of the four most mainstream arts among the hundred arts of cultivating immortals. Even among the four arts of alchemy, weapon and talisman, it is ranked first.
If I could become an alchemist...it's a pity, I have no choice!
At this moment, the distinguished alchemist Luo Chen was meditating around the Xuanyun Cauldron in the largest alchemy room.
"Let's use this middle-grade alchemy cauldron to refine the chalcedony elixir today. You should also gain proficiency quickly."
…
…
Now that I have decided to put some thought into it and make some achievements.
We can't make small fuss like before.
After all, the Ziyun Copper Furnace is only a first-order low-grade magic weapon. There are limits to the firepower and raw materials it can withstand at one time.
In comparison, the quality of the Xuanyun Cauldron, a first-level mid-grade magical weapon, is much better.
Normally, when refining Zhongmiao Pills, you can directly buy two sets of raw materials, and there is even a little more than enough.
Regarding the refining of the Chalcedony Pill, after two successes and more than a dozen failures, Luo Chen was barely familiar with it.
Now, it's time to use the Xuanyun Cauldron.
As the medicine disciples arrived one by one, Luo Chen directed them to send the corresponding medicinal materials into the great alchemy room.
"Starting today, I will spend all my morning time refining the chalcedony pill."
"Considering that you are not yet proficient in refining chalcedony pills, I can only do it by myself. Therefore, in the extra time, in addition to processing medicinal materials, you also need to read the "Hundred Herbs Illustrated Book" thoroughly."
Luo Chen handed Gu Caiyi the "Hundred Herbs Illustrated Book" that he had shamelessly borrowed from Mi Junping.
The other party is the deacon of Dantang, who is in charge of the internal affairs of Dantang.
Now he manages the medicine apprentices, fire workers, and alchemists who collect and store elixirs for him.
Normally, there are things that Luo Chen needs his subordinates to learn, and it is impossible to teach them personally. He usually has the other party supervise them on his behalf.
"Make twenty copies and let them all study it carefully to make sure they understand the properties of various spiritual herbs."
Gu Caiyi hesitantly took the Baicao Illustrated Book, "This is Xuantang's book. Let's just let them learn it, okay?"
"It's nothing good or bad. If there is any problem, Mi Junping will take care of it."
Luo Chen's mentality has changed again now.
Although this group of people under my command cannot let them learn real things, there is no need to hide everything.
If they can learn some slightly popular knowledge, it will be of better help to him in his future alchemy career.
"Besides that, Elder Sikong, please go to the Xuantang Hall and borrow the book "The Art of Burning Flames" from the Alchemy Hall for me."
Sikong Shoujia, who was standing next to him, frowned, "That's an exquisite first-order spell, not a popular spell. What are you doing here?"
"So what if it's a fine product? In the final analysis, it's not an offensive or defensive spell, it's just a mana control technique."
Luo Chen waved his hands and faced the fire workers.
"The control of flames by this group of fire masters is too crude. The refining of the Bigu Pill and the Wonderful Pills is acceptable, but they can't help me with the refining of the Chalcedony Pill."
"It will be of great benefit to you, me and the entire Poshan Gang to let them learn the Flame Control Technique."
Is that so?
Sikong Shoujia was dubious.
However, he did not refuse this request and left Xieyue Valley on the spot and went to the main altar where the Honor Hall was located.
As for the merits required to exchange spells from the Hall of Honors?
He didn't worry much about this.
When the Alchemy Hall was first established, Mi Shuhua opened the door to provide any spells he thought would be helpful to the Alchemy Hall.
Otherwise, Luo Chen would have no reason to borrow the "Hundred Herbs Illustrated Book" in the first place.
It's Mi Junping's place. He may have to spend a lot of time.
Looking at his leaving figure, Luo Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The extra work that was previously given to pharmacists and pyrotechnics was indeed what he said.
But in fact, the underlying reason is that his proficiency in refining the Chalcedony Pill is still too low.
Still in the introductory stage.
The proficiency at this stage can only support his own alchemy.
If you want to let other people help you make elixirs like Bigu Pill and Zhongmiaowan, it is far from enough.
"Actually, most of the alchemists in this world may have some help in refining alchemy, but they shouldn't be able to do it to my level, right?"
Luo Chen thought so in his heart.
He even had a feeling that if he was stronger, he could make the stall bigger.
Let more people help him and refine more pills at the same time.
This feeling of confidence comes from the abnormal efficiency of stably producing high-quality products after the proficiency of each type of elixir is promoted to the master level.
"Speaking of which, what will happen to an elixir after it reaches Dzogchen proficiency?"
"The best elixir?"
Luo Chen glanced at the attribute panel. The one closest to Dzogchen was Bigu San.
…
In the morning's alchemy, only two furnaces of pills were opened.
The first batch was made of chalcedony pills made by Luo Chen himself. He refined them using the Xuanyun Cauldron. He placed two pieces of materials and finally harvested forty waste pills.
Haha, there are forty more disposable consumables that can be used to practice Hunyuan Pearl.
Another furnace of elixir was made after he finished refining the chalcedony elixir. During his break, he guided Mi Li and several medicine apprentices to refine the elixir together.
"This Bigu Pill, named Dan, is actually just a low-grade Bigu Powder."
"Compared to first-level elixirs, refining is relatively simple, which is just right for you to get started."
"The key point is not in the techniques and skills, but in the fusion of medicinal materials and monster yellow beef."
"Remember, the medicine and meat must be combined into one, gathering and dispersing into a paste."
Under Luo Chen's guidance, those medicine practitioners who had been tortured to death by handling medicinal materials recently became energetic and energetic.
Luo Chen glanced at it and pulled a boy aside.
"Tangquan, right?"
"These are five top-quality pills. Bring them to your uncle when you go home."
Tang Quan accepted the five pills with a slightly unnatural look on his face.
His uncle was naturally Binghu Zengwen.
Fellow Taoist Zeng has asked several times recently, saying that the quantity of top-grade Zhongmiao Pills is too small, which makes him really unhappy.
Luo Chen thought of this, and when he usually collected pills, he took a few pills and gave them to this old customer.
Anyway, it was not his cost, and he had to conceal his true master-level alchemy skills, so he simply gave the extra high-grade Zhongmiao Pills back to his old customers.
"Okay, it's time to collect the pills."
"This time I am here to collect the elixir. From now on, I will slowly let you personally operate the refining of Bigu Powder."
Luo Chen said this, used the traction technique, and opened the furnace lid.
A quiet fragrance slowly spreads out.
When Mi Li, Tang Quan and others smelled the aroma, their spirits were shaken, and their stomachs seemed to become full.
Luo Chen's expression changed, and his master-level traction technique moved slightly.
Soon, a large ball of ointment flew out.
"You see, this is actually the true appearance of Bigu San."
"The pill pills you usually see are made by me using my spiritual power to knead them from a distance in the pill furnace when I was producing the pill."
"When I was refining Bigu Powder, I actually obtained the ointment first, and then kneaded it into pills with my own hands."
"This large dollop of ointment should be able to produce fifty Bigu Pills."
"Take it and make it into a pill while it's hot. Remember not to do it directly. Wrap it in a bamboo slip!"
Under the tug of Luo Chen, the large ball of ointment flew towards the rice grains in an instant.
Mi Li quickly took it with the prepared utensils, and then led a group of people out of the alchemy room.
Soon, shouting came from outside.
There is no shortage of words like "so hot" and "fun".
In the alchemy room that they were not paying attention to, Luo Chen made a move.
The furnace lid was turned over, and a golden elixir was attached to it.
"Is this the result of Dzogchen Bigu Powder?"
Today's update is here. I have to catch up on some sleep. I only slept for four hours and I'm numb.
