Jubaolou auction venue.

Cen Yun left unhurriedly. Suddenly, the door of a private room in the passage ahead opened. Immediately, the fragrance of flowers hit his nostrils, and five women in pink appeared.

The leader, a man with fine features and extraordinary handsomeness, looked at Cen Yun and said in a high-pitched voice: "Hey, isn't this the guest of the palace owner? What a fate!"

Cen Yun couldn't help but frown when he heard this voice. It was obvious that the person in front of him was a man disguised as a woman and had the ninth level of Qi refining. If he hadn't spoken, he really wouldn't have been able to tell. He cupped his hands and said, "I, Wang Yi, am just a casual person." Xiu, may I ask who the lady is?"

"Miss, giggle, you are really good at talking!"

The man disguised as a woman covered his mouth and smiled, and every movement revealed a feminine and charming aura, not inferior to a woman, and said: "The little girl Hua Wuxin is a disciple of Luohua Valley. You are the guest of the palace master, and your status must be extraordinary. Why don't you come to Luohua Valley to talk about it? With your dignity, Luohua Valley will treat you warmly and you will not be disappointed!"

Everyone knows that Luohua Valley only accepts female disciples, and its disciples all practice a dual cultivation method, which specifically takes male essence for cultivation. It is very evil. All men who go to Luohua Valley are controlled by it and become Gongs. The cauldron where he practiced was said to be from a well-known and upright sect, but in reality it was more like an evil sect.

And if he remembered correctly, the leader of the Tianxian Sect used the charming poison of Luohua Valley to control women and expand his power.

Thinking of this, Cen Yun declined politely: "Thank you, Miss Hua, for your kindness. I just have some important things to attend to. I will definitely visit you when I have the opportunity in the future."

"Hua'er, who are you talking to?"

Suddenly, a white-haired old woman holding a snake staff walked out of the private room. She exuded a great pressure and looked at Cen Yun next to her.

Cen Yun just smiled and bowed his hand to him.

The old woman had a hint of admiration in her eyes for being able to act calmly and calmly under her own pressure. This man was afraid that it would not be easy, so he nodded and said to Hua Wuxin: "Let's go."

"Yes." Hua Wuxin winked at Cen Yun and said playfully: "It's a deal~"

With that said, he and the old woman walked outside the auction venue.

Cen Yun gave a bitter smile and left the Treasure Building. When he saw someone following him, he couldn't help but show a solemn look on his face. He walked into an artifact refining workshop in Beicheng District. He looked at the various artifacts displayed in the workshop and pointed at one of the small cyan weapons. Dan Lu asked: "How to sell this furnace?"

The shopkeeper in the shop is a shrewd middle-aged man. He said with a smile: "This is a first-level alchemy furnace made of ground hematite. It can withstand the fire of foundation building for a day and a night. It sells for two pieces of medium-grade spiritual jade!"

Cen Yun took out two hundred pieces of low-grade spiritual jade and placed it in front of the counter, saying, "I want this furnace."

"Okay!"

The shopkeeper put away the spiritual jade and ordered someone to bring the blue alchemy furnace over.

Cen Yun grabbed the alchemy furnace and threw it into the storage bag, then left the weapon refining workshop. Seeing that the person behind him was still following him, he immediately turned into an alley.

"Hey, where is the person?" Two outer disciples of Tianxuan Sect followed into the alley. When they didn't see Cen Yun, they started to look around.

"Are you looking for me?"

Suddenly, a cold voice floated into their ears, and a pair of slender and strong hands rested on their shoulders.

The two of them felt pain in their shoulders, as if their bones were about to be crushed, and they immediately begged for mercy: "Ah, no, no, no, senior, please spare my life!"

"Who sent you to follow me?" Cen Yun asked coldly.

A disciple on the left reluctantly said: "It's the young master. The young master asked us to follow you, find out your identity, and see if you and Senior Sister Huang have any issues!"

"Oh?" Cen Yun finally understood the cause and effect of this matter, and said coldly, "I don't know Senior Sister Huang. Go back and tell your young master that if you send people to follow me again, the next time I go to see him, it will be two people. A human head!"

With that said, Cen Yun let go of his hand and pushed forward hard.

The two of them ran outside as if they had been given a new lease of life, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Cen Yun glanced at the direction of Tianxuanmen, sighed softly, and walked towards Yunmeng Canyon.

Returning to Yunmeng Canyon again, Cen Yun avoided the entrance restriction and the old man in ink robes, went straight to the mountains behind the canyon, found an uninhabited cliff wall, took out Mo Ying, and blasted a number on the broken wall. He flew into the cave that was ten feet deep.

With a hiding place, Cen Yun sat cross-legged, immediately took out the blue pill furnace and the elixir, and began to refine it.

He had read about the art of alchemy when he was in Fengqishan. To put it simply, he added the elixir and water in sequence according to the elixir recipe, then fired it in a furnace with spiritual jade as fuel, and finally the elixir was condensed and released from the furnace.

If there is any error in any link here, there will be a risk of exploding the furnace and refining waste elixirs or poison elixirs, so it is the most challenging for novice alchemists.

Cen Yun had never refined elixirs before, and there was no precedent in the world of immortality to refine a third-grade mirror-breaking elixir right from the start. He had to think carefully before proceeding.

After a long time, Cen Yun put away the elixir prescription and threw a piece of low-grade spiritual jade under the blue alchemy furnace. With a pinch of the magic formula, a ball of flame fell on the spiritual jade and burned fiercely, burning the green alchemy furnace until it turned red. cigarette.

Cen Yun put the elixir needed to refine the Broken Mirror Pill into the elixir furnace. Then, under the blazing high temperature in the furnace, the impurities in the elixir were gradually discharged, turning into liquid medicine and flowing in the furnace.

The most critical thing in refining the Mirror-Breaking Pill is the third-level Ganoderma lucidum. This Ganoderma lucidum is difficult to refine without the foundation-building fire, so it remains intact under the baking fire in the furnace.

Seeing that the liquid medicine in the furnace had begun to merge, Cen Yun couldn't help but become anxious.

As the name suggests, the foundation-building fire is the flame used by monks after they reach the foundation-building stage. This fire is more than ten times more powerful than the Qi-refining fire. It can easily remove impurities from third-level elixirs and melt them into liquid medicine.

"Since I can't use the foundation-building fire, I will refine it with ten times the Qi-refining fire!"

Thinking of this, Cen Yun once again threw nine pieces of low-grade spiritual jade under the alchemy furnace. At the same time, he gathered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and frantically injected fire into the ten pieces of spiritual jade. The flames turned from yellow to red, and the temperature jumped again.

Under the baking of this high temperature, the Ganoderma lucidum in the elixir furnace gradually turned into liquid medicine and merged with other elixirs. As time went by, it slowly turned into an irregular variegated elixir, which exploded suddenly with a bang. Come on.

Cen Yun waved his right hand and blew away the smoke and dust in the cave. He looked at the debris in the alchemy furnace and murmured: "Sure enough, for someone like me who is new to alchemy, it is undoubtedly a wishful thinking to refine the third-grade mirror-breaking elixir!"

"Elder Zhiming once said that my blood can be used as a neutralizer in refining elixirs. If I mix my own blood into the refining process, will I be able to avoid the risk of the furnace exploding?"

After making up his mind, Cen Yun cleaned up the impurities in the alchemy furnace and threw ten pieces of low-grade spiritual jade under the alchemy furnace again. He pinched the magic formula and ignited a raging fire. When the alchemy furnace burned red, he threw in the elixir and made the medicine. liquid.

After achieving this step, Cen Yun bit his fingertip, and a drop of scarlet blood fell out and mixed into the alchemy liquid in the furnace. As time passed, the liquid in the furnace gradually condensed into a round and bright red elixir.

Cen Yun waved his right hand, and the flame under the alchemy furnace was extinguished. When the alchemy furnace cooled down, the surface color gradually changed from red to white, exuding a strong medicinal aroma.

The Mirror-Breaking Pill has actually come true!

Taking out the Broken Mirror Pill, Cen Yun's face was more worried than happy.

The good news is that when refining any elixir in the future, as long as you master the elixir recipe and mix it with your own blood, you can easily refine the elixir.

What worries him is where this mysterious and abnormal power against the sky comes from. Sometimes he has to doubt whether he is really the same as the fierce god Roe Owl who was sealed in Fengqi Mountain. Is it a monster that shouldn't exist in this world?

"That's all, now that the elixir has been refined, it's useless to think about it any more. What's important is to improve your cultivation as soon as possible!"

Thinking of this, Cen Yun swallowed the Broken Mirror Pill into his belly.

After a moment, a majestic force dissipated from the Broken Mirror Pill, and the spiritual power spread throughout the body, straight to the forehead and entering the sea of ​​consciousness.

Seizing this opportunity, Cen Yun's spiritual consciousness dived inward and entered the breath within the sea of ​​consciousness.

If he remembered correctly, Liu Huang once said that the so-called foundation building is to build a spiritual platform in the sea of ​​consciousness, and the spiritual platform is divided into three forms, namely water mirror, bright mirror, and broken mirror, which represent three different results of foundation building. .

Cen Yun does not pursue the so-called perfect foundation. With a thought, the breath in the sea of ​​consciousness immediately sinks, gradually forming a spiritual foundation like the earth.

Without saying a word, Cen Yun immediately gathered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth crazily and poured it into the sea of ​​consciousness. But the next moment, the strange aura of the fierce god's flesh and blood in his body took advantage of the situation and dispersed the spiritual energy in the sea of ​​consciousness. He rushed into the sea of ​​consciousness crazily, trying to Seize control of your body.

"ah!"

Cen Yun felt a sharp pain in his head and yelled angrily. A trace of strange black energy suddenly emanated from his body. He quickly used all his strength to expel the strange aura from the sea of ​​consciousness. He opened his blood-red eyes and breathed heavily.

"Damn it!" Cen Yun punched the ground angrily.

Building the foundation requires not only the Mirror-Breaking Pill, but also huge spiritual power as support. But now he is faced with another difficult choice, which is to introduce the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the sea of ​​consciousness, which will lead to the evil spirit in the body. , is tantamount to luring a wolf into the house.

But if he doesn't do this, it will be difficult for him to complete the foundation construction, which is really a dilemma.

"Isn't there any way to block the aura of the evil god and at the same time introduce the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to complete the foundation building?"

Cen Yun thought for a long time and finally decided to try again. He started to refine the medicine and swallowed another mirror-breaking pill.

This time, Cen Yun decided to use his mind in two ways. On the one hand, he used his spiritual power to suppress the aura of the evil god, and on the other hand, he carefully transferred the aura of heaven and earth to prevent the aura of the evil god from taking advantage of the situation.

As time goes by, under the effect of the Broken Mirror Pill, the spiritual base in the sea of ​​consciousness expands and enriches little by little.

However, the sea of ​​​​consciousness is vast, and although the Broken Mirror Pill can assist him in building a spiritual platform, its effectiveness is limited. He is unable to transfer the spiritual energy of heaven and earth with all his strength. Each time, he loses the effectiveness of the Mirror-Broken Pill halfway through the construction, resulting in a failure.

And as the suppression time becomes longer and longer, the fierce god's aura becomes more and more manic in the body.

He knew that this was the bottleneck he faced. If he wanted to build a foundation, he must first suppress this fierce aura, otherwise he would be controlled by it.
