Back in the stone house, Luo Chen looked at the golden elixir held between his thumb and index finger.
A tiny but obvious cloud pattern circled the elixir.
Luo Chen's initial understanding of elixirs came from his predecessor's immortal fate, the legacy of an old monk.
The old monk who died in the cave was not, strictly speaking, a disciple of the sect.
He came from a casual cultivator in the Medicine King Domain, and because of his fairly good alchemy skills, he was reluctantly accepted into the outer sect of the Medicine King Sect.
The situation is very similar to Fu Xiuxiu's.
It's just that he didn't succeed in building the foundation, and he didn't obtain the foundation-building chapter of the Yaowang Sect's Immortality and Evergreen Sutra, the Yimu Yaowang Sutra.
As he got older, he became an outside disciple of the Yao King Sect, handling some sundries for the sect.
Finally, he died in a large mountain cave in Yuanzhao Kingdom.
The other party had considerable experience in alchemy, so in addition to the Changchun Gong Qi Refining Chapter, he also left two elixir prescriptions for the original body: Bigu Powder and Zhongmiao Wan.
As for why a good outer disciple of Yaowang Sect has a strange prescription for aphrodisiac, it is not something Luo Chen can know.
Later, as Luo Chen traveled through time, he sold elixirs at the market of casual cultivators, and occasionally chatted with some casual cultivators, and gradually learned more about elixirs.
Well, those people don't know how to make elixirs, but they are always picky when buying things.
After going back and forth, I can always get some words.
What gained him the most was undoubtedly the "Qing Yuan Dan Jie" Mi Shuhua gave him.
He was a foundation-building monk, but an alchemy master who had refined third-level elixirs.
To this day, Luo Chen is still studying "Qing Yuan Dan Jie" every day, and the more he reads, the more new it becomes.
The several alchemy techniques recorded above benefited him a lot.
The jade-breaking hand is a technique I recently learned, and it has a miraculous effect on processing mineral materials.
That's too far.
Through this knowledge of alchemy, Luo Chen gradually understood the entire alchemy system.
For example, the division of elixir levels.
This world has abundant spiritual energy and rich resources, which is manifested by the laws of the great road. If there are things that are born in response to the great road, they will often have corresponding dao patterns.
Such as monster bone patterns, inner alchemy pill patterns, ancient wood growth rings, strange mineral traces, etc.
Surprisingly, the artificially refined elixirs also have corresponding Dao patterns.
The world calls it Dan pattern, and because the pattern is like misty clouds, it is also called cloud pattern.
The number of cloud patterns determines the grade of an elixir.
If there are no cloud patterns, then the elixir is not advanced.
Why is Luo Chen’s Bigu Powder always said to be unpopular?
The reason is that after the potency of the medicine is stabilized, there are no cloud patterns on the pills, and even the top-grade Bigu Powder is not popular.
But this time, Luo Chen raised his Bigu Powder proficiency to the Great Perfection level.
The refined elixir had a cloud pattern.
Although there is only one wisp, it also represents entering the rank.
"Let me try it. How is the medicine?"
Luo Chen swallowed it without hesitation.
He is still sure of what he has refined.
After swallowing, a feeling of fullness gradually develops.
It felt like laziness after eating just now.
"The power of this medicine?"
Luo Chen hesitated a little, rubbed his stomach, and then became thoughtful.
"Compared with the lower-grade Bigu Powder, the medicinal power contained in it is increased by ten times. Compared with the upper-grade one, it is about three times more powerful."
The low-grade Bigu Powder can ensure that monks will not be hungry for three days.
Top-grade Bigu Powder can support normal activities for about ten days.
Now this top-quality Bigu Powder can prevent Luo Chen from feeling hungry for a month.
"Before, it was Bigu Powder refined with Xuanyun Cauldron. With two raw materials, it was supposed to produce a hundred pills."
"But in the end, I only got about fifty ointments and this one high-grade pill."
"In other words, it took a whole set of raw materials to obtain this top-quality Bigu Powder."
After getting this answer, Luo Chen was a little dissatisfied.
Whether it is external sales profits or internal energy conversion, it is a loss.
From this point of view, even if Bigu Powder reaches Dzogchen, it will not play a big role in his earning resources for cultivation.
Perhaps, the only advantage is that with this elixir, you don't need to take other bigu powder frequently during long-term retreat.
"The top-grade Bigu Powder should be comparable to the orthodox low-grade Bigu Pill."
Sighing, Luo Chen's original joy of reaching the Great Perfection level due to his proficiency in a certain elixir was a little restrained.
That's just the way it is.
Some things in the world are not always satisfactory.
What's more, he was also mentally prepared.
After all, Bigu Powder itself is just a low-grade elixir.
The system can upgrade it to the first level of low-grade, which is already extraordinary.
Moreover, doesn’t it also provide an achievement point?
Glancing at the attribute panel, I saw that the number of achievement points had accumulated to 16 points due to the promotion of the Spiritual Eye Technique to the Grandmaster level, the Mountain-Opening and Monument-Breaking Palm to the Proficiency level, and the Bigu Powder to the Great Perfection level.
The more achievement points he has, the more at ease Luo Chen feels.
Later, you will need a lot of achievement points to get started with other elixir recipes.
Looking at the achievement points, Luo Chen suddenly thought of an idea.
"If I learn some secular martial arts by refining a large amount of low-level elixirs, can I rack up achievement points? Then, directly give me a second-level elixir recipe like Blood Evil Pill to get started?"
As soon as this idea came up, Luo Chen couldn't help but think about it.
But after a while, he slapped himself.
What are you thinking about?
Is there a lot of time?
Normally, I don’t have enough time to practice alchemy. The extra time is squeezed out to practice spells and study alchemy knowledge.
He also took care of more secular martial arts that were not important, and he was really full.
Moreover, the benefits brought by those things are too little.
It's okay to practice one or two kinds occasionally, but it's absolutely impossible to get addicted to it.
"This kind of thing still needs to be done within one's ability."
"And if the realm is high, the achievement points for getting started with the corresponding level of elixir won't cost too much."
After thinking about this section, Luo Chen couldn't help but feel relaxed, feeling much better physically and mentally.
Luo Chen was thoughtful about this sudden sense of relief.
Could it be that just now, I almost fell into a demonic barrier again?
Since ancient times, taking shortcuts often leads to bad outcomes.
If you really get addicted to it, it might be harmful to the road.
…
"I got pills today, fifty-two Bigu Pills, the ratio of lower to middle is 721 to upper. Twenty Wonderful Pills, the ratio of lower to middle to upper is 451."
"Income from the alchemy room is recorded in a book."
Listening to Danshi Yang reporting the data to Gu Caiyi, Luo Chen nodded aside.
He has become more and more proficient in controlling the level of adult pills.
There are failures and successes in elixirs, and there are high and low grades, which will not arouse suspicion or make the gang lose confidence in him.
He has a good handle on this degree so far!
call!
A strong wind blew, the light of the magic weapon converged, and the figure of Sikong Shoujia appeared.
"Hall Master Luo, this is the "Flame Making Technique"."
Taking the thin booklet, Luo Chen flipped through it and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Elder Sikong. Did you encounter any trouble?"
Sikong Shoujia laughed, "I didn't encounter any trouble. I thought I was going to have to argue with Mi Junping, but unexpectedly, she was much more generous this time. Maybe it's also because the "Flame Making Technique" is not a subtle spell. Bar!"
The "Flame Enchanting Technique" is indeed not a subtle spell. It has neither offensive power nor defensive capabilities.
It just improves the monk's flame control skills.
It can be listed as a first-level spell because it is very helpful to alchemists.
But she didn't know that this technique was not that simple for Luo Chen.
"With this thing, it may be possible to improve some of the shortcomings of my Dzogchen Fireball Technique."
Thinking of the Dzogchen Fireball Technique and the embarrassing situation of letting it go but not taking it back, Luo Chen now felt confident.
As long as you learn the Flame Control Technique, maybe you can take the power of the Dzogchen Fireball Technique to a higher level!
…
…
After passing through the initial novelty, life in Dantang became as ordinary as water.
The monks inside, under the leadership of Gu Caiyi, are familiar with the Baicao Illustrated Book and the Flame-making Technique.
It helped Luo Chen's alchemy work more and more.
As a result, he had more time to do his own things.
A month later, in the primeval forest ten miles behind Xianyue Valley.
Rusty.
The grass was trembling, and a rabbit with red eyes ran away like a mad enemy, as if it had encountered a natural enemy.
Behind it, the huge bush looked like it had been run over by a tank. A gray wolf that was as tall as a man and about three meters long suddenly jumped out.
The speed was so fast that he was already above the rabbit in almost the blink of an eye.
Falling in the air, grabbing the rabbit with one claw, the gray wolf stuffed it directly into his mouth.
Blood, flesh, and juice flowed down from the gaps between the ferocious teeth as they closed.
The gray wolf seemed not satisfied after eating this rabbit, and continued to wander in the forest, looking for more prey.
Suddenly, its footsteps stopped.
I sniffed slightly, and there seemed to be something smelling in the air.
His eyes wandered, but he found nothing.
And directly in front of him, on the branch of a giant tree, a man wearing moon-white robes was looking at it carefully.
A first-order monster, Gray Leaf Wolf.
The strong ones among the low-level demon wolves are comparable to those in the late stage of human Qi refining, and their recovery ability is extremely strong. It often requires many people to hunt them down before they can be killed.
"The strange thing is that gray leaf wolves usually hunt in groups, but this one actually hunts alone."
This person is none other than Luo Chen.
During these days, when he has a little free time, he will go to the forest behind Xianyue Valley to practice his spells.
Occasionally, he will encounter some low-level monsters, but with his various methods, he can basically kill them easily.
Occasionally he would encounter some wolves, but he would avoid them.
This forest can already be regarded as the outer area of Xiaoyue Mountain Range.
Although Xiaoyue Mountain Range is also adjacent to Dahefang, it is not the main hunting area for monks.
The main reason is that demon wolves tend to be fast and have a keen sense of smell, so they are not suitable for hunting.
The few times Luo Chen encountered wolves, he basically relied on proficient-level breathing techniques and extremely fast body skills to avoid them.
But this time, he was a little moved.
"The lone gray leaf wolf is a very good opponent!"
Blindly looking for weak monsters to practice with will not produce a good training effect.
In comparison, the gray leaf wolf is very substantial.
With a thought in his mind, Luo Chen waved his hand.
Seven green rays of light suddenly flew out.
Almost as soon as he took action, the breath-condensing spirit art lost its function of concealing the aura, and the active spiritual power fluctuations instantly fell into the eyes of the demon wolf.
"Woo!"
With a whimper, the gray leaf wolf advanced instead of retreating!
In this area, their demon wolf clan is undoubtedly the top of the food chain, and they have never been afraid of anyone.
Especially the enemy in front of him doesn't look strong.
As it jumped up, the surging demonic power spread immediately.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Seven green rays of light flew away feebly like hitting steel.
Luo Chen's eyes flashed, and he used his traction technique again, and the jade sword that had been swung away suddenly surrounded him.
The jade sword formation took shape in an instant!
"The master-level traction technique, coupled with my spiritual awareness foundation that is twice as good as that of ordinary monks, has allowed me to control this set of mid-grade magic weapons to a level of proficiency."
"However, with this little method, I'm afraid I can't help but defeat this monster wolf."
As expected, the formed sword array only left a few blood marks on the gray leaf wolf's body before it was swatted away with a claw.
One of the wooden swords was even more dim, and it must have been seriously damaged.
"However, my methods are not limited to this!"
"rise!"
Luo Chen's eyes were sharp, and his tactics suddenly changed.
Green vines suddenly flew out of the forest, which was overgrown with vegetation and shrubs.
Baring his teeth and claws, he grabbed at the demon wolf.
Facing this attack, the demon wolf beast showed disdain in its eyes and rushed towards Luo Chen's demon body without hesitation.
Whenever the vines caught on it, it would be broken directly after just a slight delay.
Not only that, when it waved its wolf claws, it hit Luo Chen with yellow-green blades.
It was an attack formed by the condensed demonic power.
Luo Chen didn't panic, his robes fluttered, and he even stepped back.
Xiaoyaoyou combined with the Wind Control Technique made him extremely agile in mid-air.
In particular, there are many giant trees nearby, which can block most of his attacks.
While retreating, he shot out fireballs one after another, mixed with dozens of colorful beads using a special technique.
The appearance of the fireball technique made Gray Leaf Wolf a little cautious.
This is the method of human monks!
But that's all.
The speed was too slow and it couldn't hit him at all.
Instead, the beads hit him one after another, and when they exploded, their skin and flesh were torn apart.
The gray leaf wolf is an earth-type monster. It is not very fast among its kind, but it is tough and has a strong recovery ability.
He is good at long-term fighting, so he has strong fighting power.
These minor injuries only made him angrier.
That damn human is too fast and doesn't fight it head-on.
Like this, after dozens of breaths, the gray leaf wolf stopped.
The beast's instinct makes it dislike the rhythm of being led around by others.
It's ready to slip away.
However, just when it was about to turn around, the beast's eyes widened and its tail was subconsciously clamped.
Wherever he looked, the fireballs that had not hit him before were faintly surrounding him.
"It must be very uncomfortable for me to be flying a kite all the time!"
At some point, Luo Chen had reached the top of a nearby giant tree.
"Then let me give you a decent death!"
"combine!"
With a thought in his mind, his fingers intertwined and flew like flowers.
As he moved, threads of spiritual power pulled the fireballs flying in all directions, criss-crossing along specific trajectories, and pounced on the demon wolf.
"Ouch!!!"
The demon wolf roared, and all its demon power exploded.
Rays of earth-yellow light enveloped the whole body.
However, even with this defense, under the continuous attacks of those twenty-odd fireballs, there was no way to save the situation.
After five breaths.
Luo Chen fell from the sky.
Looking at the blazing pit, I couldn't help but shake my head and sigh.
"It's a pity that this body has so much fur. If it were complete, it would be worth ten spiritual stones."
"This piece of monster meat must weigh one or two thousand kilograms, and it also contains dozens of spiritual stones."
"And these bones, alas, why are my hands so mean!"
Luo Chen was very upset, the crystal clear spirit stone was gone!
"It's better to run away first. The roar it made before it died was probably calling for the same kind of people. Don't stay here for a long time!"
Luo Chen did not hesitate, jumped up, and disappeared like a big bird outside the primeval forest lined with giant trees.
On the way back, Luo Chen thought about the battle just now and looked for his own shortcomings.
I searched around and couldn't find it!
"I am indeed a fighting genius!"
In this battle, he only used conventional means.
Jasper Sword, Winding Technique, Fire Ball Technique, Hunyuan Chalcedony Bead, Xiaoyaoyou and Wind Control Technique.
He had no use for the other soul-breaking nails and fireball fusion techniques at the bottom of the box.
But even with conventional methods, under this kite-flying style, it is extremely easy to deal with Gray Leaf Wolf, which is comparable to the late Qi Refining stage.
From beginning to end, the rhythm of the battle was always under Luo Chen's control.
Especially the last move of the fireball encirclement made Luo Chen extremely satisfied.
"The Flame Technique indeed has a blessing effect on the fireball technique. The original flying fire and flowing fireflies have now become more agile and even unexpected."
"If it were Brother Qin, I'm afraid he would be hit hard due to carelessness!"
"There is also the Heavenly Lady's hidden weapon technique of scattering flowers. I use the Hunyuan Pearl technique to play out the waste chalcedony pill and detonate it as a disposable consumable. Under a large number of attacks, it is not weaker than a normal magic weapon at all. The subtlety of it is, What’s more, it doesn’t require long-term spiritual control.”
"If we fight against the monks, the effect will be even better!"
The Chalcedony Waste Pill has no effect at all, but it is quite hard because it contains the first-order spiritual material Huan Yu.
After detonating it, a single bead is not very powerful.
But if you use the Hunyuan Pearl technique to detonate dozens or hundreds of them instantly, the power will be extremely impressive.
Luo Chen thought about these things and felt that he had gained a lot in this month!
The first entanglement technique I learned finally reached the master level. Although the offensive and defensive effects are not good, it is very good at blocking and trapping enemies.
The Breath Length Jue has also been practiced to the proficiency level, which is far beyond Chen Xiuping's initial level. With the demon wolf's keen sense of smell, he was not discovered at the first time.
As for the proficiency level of other healing arts and the proficiency level of the Mountain-Breaking Monument Palm, he swept them all away.
And because his proficiency in these spells continued to increase, his achievement points also jumped to 19 points.
With these master-level and perfect-level spells, combined with his ever-improving kite-flying fighting style, Luo Chen is confident that he is capable of facing the vast majority of late-stage Qi-refining monks.
If he waits until he reaches the seventh level of Qi Refining, he will have nothing to fear from some ninth-level Qi Refining monks who don't have good magic weapons.
"Perhaps only those few masters with the best magic weapons on the Taoist forum can pose a threat to me!"
Luo Chen thought of the scene of the eighteen monks fighting to the death, the strange array flags, fragments of magic weapons, sword pills, blood methods, Qin Liangchen's self-destruction style, Wang Yuan's tyrannical physique, etc.
He could only shake his head and sigh.
Those are simply not something that the ordinary ninth level of Qi Refining can have.
All we can say is that it was basically a competition between two big gangs and two foundation-building monks!
How can ordinary Qi refining monks get the best defensive robes and the best flying swords?
Thinking about all this, Luo Chen had already flown into Xianyue Valley.
As soon as he entered the alchemy hall, Sikong Shoujia came up to him.
"Hall Master Luo, the main altar has informed us that a gang meeting has begun. Do you think it's time for us to go there?"
"A gang?"
Luo Chen's eyes lit up and he waved his hand!
"Let's go!"
The first-order results won’t be available until tomorrow, but today they have already exceeded 1,000, which is relatively good!
And the editor took advantage of me and gave me a new book recommendation, which will be published next week.
Haha, heaven and earth are united in times, thank you brothers for your strong support.
