Shangluo's mood was a little complicated at the moment.
Finally, he found a potion that worked for him. After he came up with the formula and it was completed by His Majesty the Emperor Shengtianzi, who graduated from the Department of Chemical Engineering of Nanjing University, these "bottles" really worked for him.
But going back to the beginning, the reason he wanted this formula was actually to provide Apollonia with phlogiston.
[The emperor has exceeded the standard and completed the task. The abundance of this bottle of concentrated phlogiston complex named 'Bottled Sea of Air' has actually reached 15.5%. 】
Apollonia praised Zhu Xianren's achievements.
"But it doesn't seem to work for me." He and Zhu Xianfen drank a bottle each. Zhu Xianfen felt refreshed, but there was no difference between him and before. Even if 15% of the abundant phlogiston reaches his stomach, it will be digested like ice and snow meeting a furnace.
"I sometimes wonder if I am Doraemon, with some kind of atomic furnace in my belly."
[No, no, no, I think it’s definitely not as simple as an atomic furnace. Even an atomic furnace can explode with this level of concentrated phlogiston. 】
Zhu Xianfen, who was opposite him, looked at him with a strange look on his face: "How is it? It still doesn't work?"
He shook his head: "It still doesn't work. Will this affect my foundation building?"
"No. Because in theory there are only levels of refining Qi and transforming Qi into God, and the Qi training period and the foundation building period are artificially divided. In other words, there is no difference between heaven and man. Between immortals There is only the difference between heaven and mortals. So no matter what you looked like before you established the foundation, even if you have no aura at all, it will not affect your foundation establishment."
"I feel relieved about this."
"But I'm not relieved yet." Zhu Xianxen put down the test tube. "The Jinjia in the Jinyiwei warehouse is still lying on the ground. When I went to see it yesterday, it almost dug a well. Is there anything you can do?"
Shangluo briefly "asked" and gave the answer:
"That's not a problem. I can move it away with a bottle of Qi Hai."
"Eh?" Zhu Xianfen thought for a moment, "What's your point? It won't have any effect on you after you take it, but you can mobilize the spiritual energy in the 'Bottled Sea of Qi'?"
"Is this weird?"
"This is so strange! Because 'spiritual energy' is of no use to people, it is just an external object. You have to transform it into 'true energy' through yourself, and these true energy are the 'real' things that monks need to cultivate. So. Senior Fu pinched Wen Yuan's face earlier, right? He saw spiritual energy coming out of Wen Yuan's mouth, which means that the spiritual energy in Wen Yuan's belly didn't have time to transform into true energy, and it came directly from his mouth. It came out. And here you are"
He put the test tube aside, drew a small figure on the blackboard, and indicated with an arrow:
"The aura is outside, and the work is also outside. It feels like you are not controlling the aura with your body, but through your mind, such as operating an interface? Some kind of spell? Or a spiritual object?"
[He guessed it]
"Did I guess it right? But don't worry, we are all monks, so we still have to have little secrets. Because people have different opportunities, we can't ask everyone to walk on the same path. People are not potted plants. Right, why should it be trimmed neatly? In short, as long as it can be used, people should use tools. A swordsman must also have a sword by his side, right?"
Thinking of this, Zhu Xianfen suddenly remembered:
"Ah, maybe you are suitable to be a swordsman!"
"Sword cultivator? Aren't we sword cultivators here?"
"The Taoist ancestor is the Great Master of Five Thunders, and the Taoist methods he teaches are of course Lei Xiu's Taoist methods. Although there are differences such as Xuan Lei and Lei Huo, the physical requirements are the highest among all the methods. Those without talent will be considered You won’t be able to get in even if you try hard. But there are so many great ways to cultivate immortality, so you don’t have to be like us and stick to the thunder method.”
"Is there any other method of cultivating immortals?"
"There are many systems of spells, and there are also people practicing in Zhongnan Mountain or other famous mountains, so we don't have statistics on how many heavenly beings there are in the world, but there are definitely more than just the four in Ouchi. If you are in this situation, wait, I’ll call and ask.”
He took out the Fetion card and suddenly remembered:
"Ah, I forgot that it's still early in the morning. Just wait a moment and I'll get back to you in the afternoon. After dawn, I'll call Wudang Mountain and ask them to send someone to take a look. The seat of Ouchi's sword head has been vacant for many years. , because we don’t have a single sword cultivator here. If you can get started with sword cultivating, you can become the Thirteen Taibao in no time.”
"Huh? Aren't the Thirteen Taibao from Beizhen?"
"To be precise, they are the Thirteen Taibao of Ouchi, and the recruiters are not limited to Jinyiwei. The Forbidden Army also participates, but in recent years, all those selected to join the Thirteen Taibao are from Beizhen, and one of them is the screwdriver in the Guangzhou team. One of the 4. Sometimes I think that Ouchi is too stingy, so no one wants to work for Ouchi. Because the Thirteen Taibao is actually 13 external recruitment positions, although there are people who are interested in working for Ouchi and practicing Qi. Scholars will be recruited, but the most outstanding among them will be selected into the Thirteen Taibao, representing 13 different methods."
"What's your rank as a swordsman?"
"Among all the methods, the sword is the first, and sword cultivation is the first. Therefore, the sword head is also the model for all Ouchi Qi practitioners, and is the head of the Thirteen Taibao - so if you use the sword to practice Ouchi, you will immediately He is the leader among all Qi practitioners. 13 Taibao’s monthly salary is pretty good, 50 taels per month, including food and accommodation.”
"???" Shangluo was stunned, "Is it so easy to become the top qigong practitioner in Dauchi???"
"Because no one dares to be the sword leader. The ranking of the first sword cultivator was obtained when General Dongshou was still a Qi practitioner. After he was promoted to heaven, the position of sword leader has been vacant. .Similarly, the second position of Lei Xiu was taken by General Bai Feng, and it was also vacant after his ascension. Now there is someone who takes the position, but you have to accept the challenge. So it is easy to get the position, just a sword cultivator, you will automatically Become the leader of the sword. But whether you can hold on to it depends on your own level."
"Then forget it!" Shangluo didn't care about other people's challenges. With Apollonia here, he has the confidence to challenge other Qi practitioners. However, if too many trump cards are exposed during the challenge, the gain will outweigh the loss. Qi practitioners can all have their own little secrets, but if the secret is exposed, it is no longer a secret.
"Hey, don't refuse in a hurry. In fact, it's because General Dongshou promoted the sword cultivator's position too high. Later sword cultivators were afraid that they wouldn't be able to catch it, so no one wanted to take the sword head of Ouchi. position. If you can get on it, it will be a living sign to recruit other sword cultivators. Then other sword cultivators will come to sign up. How about you think about it again? You can talk about the salary. You haven't become a sword cultivator yet. I don’t know, sword cultivators are very good.”
