In the world of cultivation, there are only a few geniuses who can successfully build a foundation without relying on foundation-building pills. The vast majority of cultivators must have external aids to achieve the foundation-building stage.
Whether or not new foundation-building monks can be cultivated is related to the inheritance of each sect.
Only the Feihong Sect can refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, and neither Meng Zhang nor the Shi Family deliberately revealed the fact that Shi Changqing of the Shi family successfully refined a batch of Foundation Establishment Pill last time.
The monks from several sects can only look forward to the Small Foundation Establishment Pill.
Seeing everyone's expectant eyes, Gu Tanghai smiled bitterly. He and Taoist Priest Guanghong looked at each other and said openly: "Everyone, my alchemist has studied the elixir for a long time and found that it is indeed difficult to refine the small foundation-building elixir."
"The same goes for Linquan Temple. There is no way to refine the Small Foundation Establishment Pill." Taoist Priest Guanghong said.
Gu Tanghai and Taoist Guanghong started talking to each other one by one, and the whole thing was quickly explained clearly.
It turned out that after receiving the recipe for Xiao Ji Zhu Dan, both the Shi family and Lin Quanguan hurriedly studied it.
Although the refining difficulty of the Small Foundation Establishment Pill is lower than that of the Foundation Establishment Pill, it is still a second-level elixir, and it is considered to be the more difficult to refine among the second-level elixirs.
If it's just that it's difficult to refine, it doesn't matter. Shi Changqing of the Shi family has even successfully refined the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Although the materials for refining the Small Foundation Establishment Pill are precious, they are still far behind compared to the Foundation Establishment Pill.
But the biggest problem is that the two materials needed to refine the Little Foundation Establishment Pill can only be provided by Shuangfenggu in the past.
Now that Shuangfenggu has perished and its inheritance has been lost, the production methods of these two materials have naturally been lost as well.
Without two important materials, the Small Foundation Establishment Pill cannot be refined.
After hearing what Gu Tanghai and Taoist Guanghong said, everyone was very disappointed.
In the past, as a vassal sect of Shuangfeng Valley, they could occasionally obtain a small foundation-building pill from Shuangfeng Valley at a sufficient price.
Now that Shuangfeng Valley is destroyed, and the Small Foundation Establishment Pill cannot be refined, how can they ensure that the younger monks of the sect will establish the Foundation?
Are we going to deal with the Feihong Sect and find a way to obtain the Foundation Building Pill from the Feihong Sect?
Seeing everyone looking at him for help, Taoist Master Guanghong was a little embarrassed.
Most of the cultivators in Linquan Temple use shell beads that are hundreds of years old to build their foundations as an aid. The auxiliary effect of the shell beads is not as good as that of the small foundation-building pill, and the output is extremely low, not even Lin Quanguan himself can use it.
As for obtaining the Foundation Building Pill from Feihong Sect, don't even think about it.
Now Feihong Sect appears to have reconciled with Lin Quanguan, but that is only temporary. Feihong Sect's precautions against Lin Quanguan will not disappear.
The Feihong Sect will definitely secretly think of ways to curb the development and growth of Lin Quanguan.
Without the Foundation Establishment Pill, Linquan Temple and its vassal Foundation Establishment Stage monks would not increase rapidly.
Therefore, Feihong Sect would not let Lin Quanguan obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill easily.
Although Shuangfenggu was overbearing in the past, the vassal sects could still exchange it for the Small Foundation Establishment Pill.
Now that Linquan Temple has replaced Shuangfenggu, if this problem cannot be solved, these vassal sects may become alienated.
Seeing the embarrassment of Taoist Guanghong, Meng Zhang suddenly said: "One person is short-term, and everyone is wise. Brother Gu, why don't you publish the recipe for the Little Foundation Establishment Pill and let everyone study it together to see if the problem can be solved."
Meng Zhang's words immediately attracted everyone's agreement.
"Yes, what Master Meng said makes sense. Maybe others can solve the problems that Brother Gu can't solve."
“Bring your brains together and come up with a solution together, maybe we can actually come up with a solution.”
Out of the desire for the Little Foundation Establishment Pill, everyone still hopes to solve this problem and refine the Little Foundation Establishment Pill.
Even if the problem can't be solved, it's not bad to get a prescription for free.
You know, not to mention Mingshafang City, even in Huojingfang City, there are very few second-level elixir recipes for sale. Special pill recipes like the Little Foundation Establishment Pill are very rare in the entire endless sand sea.
Gu Tanghai was a little hesitant, but Taoist Guanghong was very moved. Meng Zhang continued: "We won't see this prescription in vain. Let's all work together to make it up to Brother Gu and Lin Quanguan."
Everyone greatly agreed with Meng Zhang's words.
As a result, everyone began to discuss how much spiritual stone should be compensated and how to share it among several sects.
Seeing how enthusiastic everyone was, Taoist Guanghong made up his mind.
Qiaoshou Sect, Jindao Sect, Taiyi Sect and Linshan Sect each gave out five thousand low-grade spiritual stones in exchange for the prescription of Xiaoji Establishment Pill.
As for how Gu Tanghai and Taoist Guanghong distribute the 20,000 spirit stones, that is their problem.
A complete elixir recipe should include detailed descriptions of various materials, processing methods, as well as various aspects such as heat and techniques during the refining process.
Strictly speaking, the elixir recipe obtained by Taoist Guanghong was incomplete.
One of the materials used in refining the Small Foundation Establishment Pill is the essence of Liushenhua extracted using the secret technique of Shuangfenggu.
Although Liushenhua is an expensive spiritual flower, it is not too difficult to obtain.
The alchemists Shi Changqing and Lin Quanguan each used other methods to extract the essence of Liushenhua, but neither could meet the requirements of the elixir, and instead a lot of materials were wasted.
In addition, the ingredient called Salvia miltiorrhiza required in the recipe seems to have been cultivated only in Shuangfeng Valley in the past.
After the demise of Shuangfenggu, the planting method was also lost.
Without two key materials, it is naturally impossible to refine the Small Foundation Establishment Pill.
After everyone got the recipe for the Little Foundation Establishment Pill, they were all ready to take it back to the sect and let the alchemist in the sect study it carefully.
Of course, even the Shi family and Lin Quanguan were unable to produce results, and their efforts were doomed to be in vain.
Meng Zhang, on the other hand, took a closer look at the recipe for the Little Foundation Establishment Pill and recalled the Shuangfenggu classics brought back by God General Houtu.
Meng Zhang had an excellent memory, almost a photographic memory, and immediately recalled what he had seen.
The secret method of extracting the essence of Liushen flower and the method of planting three-leaf salvia are all found in those classics.
Having mastered the sources of the two missing materials, if Meng Zhang cooperates with the Shi family, he can refine the Small Foundation Establishment Pill.
But Meng Zhang had suffered great losses from the Shi family, so how could he not learn his lesson?
The Shi family swallowed up his Foundation Establishment Pill last time, and it was Luo Ye, who was in the later stage of Foundation Establishment, who came forward to get it back.
Luo Ye had already left the endless sand sea. Without this strong support, Meng Zhangke would not be able to convince Gu Tanghai.
He decided to keep this secret, and wait until Taiyi Sect trains its own alchemist in the future, and then his own alchemist will refine the Little Foundation Establishment Pill. Even if you have to wait for decades, you won’t hesitate.
After returning to the sect, some of Shuangfenggu's classics must be kept separately and not allowed to be accessed by ordinary disciples in the sect.
