Golden beads have had another name throughout the ages.
People who have owned it in the past often encountered very powerful lightning and died unexpectedly when going through tribulations!
Later, people named it Thunder Pearl, which was regarded as an unknown thing.
Over time it was slowly lost.
Guo Xun's father, Guo Zhengsong, accidentally picked it up and gave it to Guo Xun as gold.
Only then did the Thunder Drop Pearl reappear.
But no one knew that it was actually an inner elixir from heaven.
Guo Xun's training method will damage the body, but it will recover quickly, which makes Guo Xun stronger than ordinary body refiners.
Only Guo Xun, who possesses the divine inner elixir of Thunder Dropping Pearl, can do this.
As the name suggests, body training is the use of true energy to temper the body and make it extremely tough.
Body refining is divided into three stages: skin and flesh tempering, muscle and bone tempering, and internal organ tempering, which respectively correspond to the foundation building, condensing elixir, and golden elixir of Qi refining.
In the end, whether it is body refining or qi refining, they all lead to the same goal of cultivating the Nascent Soul. However, it is extremely difficult to refine the body to enter the Nascent Soul. It can be said that there is no one in a billion.
Moreover, there is also a very helpless fact that body practitioners are weaker than Qi practitioners until they reach Nascent Soul.
This is a common understanding, so body refiners are not called cultivators in this world, because body refiners cannot separate the true energy from the body and cannot cast spells.
Even if you reach the state of refining internal organs, you will only have great strength and strong defense, and you will not be able to perform long-range attacks at all.
However, after cultivating to the visceral refining stage, one can release the true energy and attach it to the surface of one's body or weapons to generate powerful power, allowing for close combat with the enemy.
Guo Xun is now in the early stage of refining skin and meat. Since Guo Xun's Dantian cannot be used, he can only use spiritual energy to directly temper his body.
Coupled with the long-term nourishment of the body by the Thunder Falling Pearl, his physique is extremely strong, which makes him qualified to refine skin and meat.
Although Guo Xun is currently in the foundation-building stage of Qi refining, his combat effectiveness is completely incomparable to that of a foundation-building monk.
The monks in the foundation-building stage can kill enemies with swords, but Guo Xun can't even get close to them, so what should he use to fight?
Therefore, people with the talent of Qi refining generally do not choose to refining the body, unless they are crazy and like to make trouble for themselves.
As a mortal, being able to work as a medicine boy in Qingyue Peak is actually quite enviable. This is an opportunity that no one can ask for.
The number of people who make alchemy in the entire Qingyue Summit can be counted on ten fingers. Apart from studying and identifying medicinal herbs, Guo Xun only has to practice every day.
Since he last knew that he could practice, he has been using the diluted solution of Spirit-Gathering Grass to help him practice every day.
He felt that his body was changing every day, and he felt that his strength was getting stronger and his skin was getting stronger.
Moreover, he felt that the effect of the Juling Grass juice being diluted a hundred times was not as obvious as it was at the beginning.
The burning sensation and comfort were slowly weakening, so Guo Xun planned to adjust the dilution factor.
He himself had no idea how fast Guo Xun's physical training was, but if he let others know, they would definitely be shocked.
In just half a month since he officially started practicing, he has reached the third level of skin and flesh refining.
Compared with ordinary body refiners, it will take at least more than a year to cultivate to the third level of skin and flesh refinement.
But Guo Xun didn't know all this and instead thought that he was practicing too slowly.
This morning, Guo Xun was practicing in the Alchemy Pavilion as usual. At this time, a person walked in from outside the gate. Guo Xun was very surprised that Peak Master Liu Qingyue actually came.
Liu Qingyue was still noble and elegant. When she walked into the hall, she saw Guo Xun and said:
"I have a list of materials here. Go to the second floor immediately to find it and give it to me. I want to prepare the elixir."
Guo Xun respectfully reached out and took Liu Qingyue's list and replied:
"Okay, Lord Peak Master."
Guo Xun went up to the second floor and quickly took out some medicinal materials from the pharmacy and handed them to Liu Qingyue. The whole process took less than three minutes.
Liu Qingyue looked at the medicinal materials in Guo Xun's hand, and couldn't help but nodded and glanced at Guo Xun silently.
She actually couldn't believe that there were thousands of kinds of medicinal materials stored in the pharmacy. The average alchemist wouldn't be able to find everything she wanted so quickly.
This guy could actually find the ones she wanted so quickly!
It seemed that this kid was not lazy. Liu Qingyue couldn't help but glance at Guo Xun, and then she walked into an alchemy room.
Today Liu Qingyue came to refine some spirit-gathering pills for Xia Ruoshui, although the sect would distribute a spirit-gathering pill to outer disciples every month.
But as Liu Qingyue's personal disciple, Xia Ruoshui would naturally receive some care. It was only natural that Liu Qingyue decided to refine some spirit-gathering pills for her lovely disciple.
Disciples in the Qi refining stage cannot take too much Spirit Gathering Pill, otherwise the body will be unable to bear the damage to the meridians, but who would be dissatisfied with this?
Liu Qingyue walked out of the alchemy room in less than half an hour. When she left, she told Guo Xun to clean up the alchemy room.
When Liu Qingyue was practicing elixirs just now, there were six useless elixirs and four adult elixirs in a batch of elixirs. Of these four elixirs, three were low-grade and one was medium-grade. Even so, Liu Qingyue was still very satisfied.
The grades of elixirs are divided into useless elixirs, low-grade elixirs, middle-grade elixirs, top-grade elixirs, top-grade elixirs and divine elixirs.
The higher the grade, the stronger the efficacy of the elixir. The difference in efficacy between different grades of the same elixir is huge, and there is a huge difference between low-grade and divine-grade pills.
The top alchemist can refine ten finished pills with one batch of materials, but this kind of alchemist only exists in legends.
A good alchemist who can refine five useful finished pills is already very good, let alone those who are half-hearted, and even worse, they can't even refine one.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, the proportion of waste elixirs in a batch of elixirs is much higher than the proportion of completed elixirs.
Guo Xun was no stranger to waste elixirs. He had been in the alchemy pavilion for a month and a half. During this period, alchemists came to refine elixirs, and he had dealt with waste elixirs for them those few times.
At that time, an alchemist told Guo Xun that waste elixirs were elixirs that had failed to be refined. There were various impurities in them. Waste elixirs usually had an odor and were highly toxic.
So they told Guo Xun not to touch the waste pills directly with his hands and asked him to throw the waste pills into the Burning Pill Pond in the back mountain.
The Burning Pill Pond is a place dedicated to dealing with waste pills. Waste pills must be burned with real fire, so every one or two years the Peak Master will come to the Burning Pill Pond to destroy these waste pills.
The Burning Pill Pond was not a nice place, and Guo Xun was quite choked by the smoke when he first came there.
He looked at the mountains of waste pills piled up in the Burning Pill Pond and became dizzy from the stench. He also particularly hated this place.
Perhaps it was because of this that Liu Qingyue never came to destroy the waste pills here.
This resulted in the pile of waste elixirs in the Burning Dan Pond. In the past, the alchemy disciples threw the waste elixirs here. Now that they have the medicine boy, they instruct the medicine boy to do this.
After Liu Qingyue left, Guo Xun walked into the alchemy room. He came to the alchemy furnace and looked at the several black spent elixirs inside, with a sad look on his face.
It turns out that this is what the so-called drug boys do! Guo Xun was disappointed.
Guo Xun carefully used a shovel to take out the waste pills and put them into a wooden barrel.
Because alchemy is a process of excellence, the inside of the alchemy furnace is very clean and there is no need to clean the alchemy furnace.
Guo Xun was carrying a small wooden bucket and had to pass by the martial arts venue on his way to Burning Pill Pond.
The martial arts arena is a place specially provided for disciples to compete, where fair competitions, disciple assessments, and personal grievances can be resolved, etc. can be conducted.
Anyway, a series of conflicts can be resolved here, but no lives are allowed.
