Three fourth-level elixir recipes, each successful once?
There were only five chances each.
When Lu Zhong heard Yang Jin's words, he frowned slightly, thinking that the difficulty was really quite high.
For others, it may be a huge challenge, but for him, with the help of gray fog space simulation, the difficulty can actually be greatly reduced.
Therefore, he was full of confidence that he had passed the certification.
After walking out of the main hall, everyone walked through a winding corridor, passing several side halls along the way, and walked towards the back hall.
The further we walked, the stronger the scent of red pepper became.
You can see that there are many rooms along the way, which are all alchemy rooms. There are more or less alchemists refining alchemy. Many of them are curious and cast their eyes towards the four of them.
But most of them took a quick look and continued to do their own business.
After all, you can't be distracted while refining alchemy. A slight mistake will cause your hard work to be wasted.
Soon, the three of them led Lu Zhong to an underground palace alchemy room.
As soon as he entered it, Lu Zhong felt the temperature rise sharply and could smell the smell of sulfur fire.
Looking at the surrounding environment, he found that the configuration of this alchemy room really had everything that could provide great assistance to the alchemist's alchemy process.
His eyes fell on the alchemy furnace in the center of the room. It was a fourth-order alchemy furnace with three legs and two ears. It was a structure that Lu Zhong was familiar with. There was a faint light of fire coming out of it. Apparently someone had received the news and had begun to warm up the furnace. Prepare for the next certification.
Taking Lu Zhong into the alchemy room, Yang Jin said: "Fellow Daoist Chen, this is the certification examination venue. Do you think there is any problem? If there is no doubt, the certification examination is about to begin."
"Then I'd like to thank you fellow Taoists." Upon hearing this, Lu Zhong saluted the three of them.
"Fellow Taoist, you don't have to be so polite. This is all between the three of us." Pei Yuanqing saw that Lu Zhong's cultivation level was not low, so he did not dare to neglect, and returned the courtesy slightly before saying this.
"This is the content of the first level. Fellow Taoist, please look at it carefully."
At this time, Nie Shaoyun on the side said something. She moved her hand forward, and a red jade slip flew in front of Lu Zhong.
Lu Zhong took it and took a look and found that most of them were things he had never heard of.
Fortunately, the jade slips briefly mention the precautions for refining.
While he read it carefully, he mentally considered the method of refining the elixir and the problems he might encounter in the process based on his past experience.
Less than a quarter of an hour later, Lu Zhong took a storage bag from Yang Jin, which contained the elixir needed to refine the elixir. After confirming that the quantity and type were correct, the three of them exited.
The alchemy techniques of different alchemists are often kept secret, so the method of supervising the examination is often to add secret fragrance to the elixir, or use various indirect methods to ensure the privacy of the alchemist, and at the same time to ensure the privacy of the alchemist. Avoid unnecessary conflicts.
Lu Zhong raised his hand to open the ban on the alchemy room, and then added a few more.
Then he gathered his mind and prepared to start refining the elixir.
He opened his mouth and spat out the Purple Gold Extreme Fire, replacing the earth fire in the furnace. Then he did not rush to refine the elixir for the exam, but took out a portion of the remaining elixir materials to familiarize himself with elixir refining. The performance of the furnace can increase the success rate of alchemy.
After half a stick of incense, a third-level elixir was successfully released.
This also marked that Lu Zhong was familiar with the performance of the alchemy furnace.
Next, is the formal alchemy process.
There is nothing to say about first- and second-level elixirs. As an alchemist who has made tens of thousands of elixirs, Lu Zhong can still make them by relying on his accumulated experience in the past, even if he encounters an unfamiliar elixir recipe.
As time goes by, the aroma in the alchemy room becomes more and more dense.
Lu Zhong successfully refined the fifteen elixirs of the first and second levels in one go, and then it was the turn of the third level elixirs.
Phosphorus Fire Pill, Jiangyuan Pill...
But when he began to refine Ziyundan, he hesitated.
According to the elixir prescription given by the elixir alliance, this elixir called "Ziyun Dan" needs to be added with fruit juice called Yunguo when it is about to become an elixir to reconcile its medicinal properties. But according to Lu Zhong's understanding, the juice of this kind of cloud fruit is not as effective as its core.
Without hesitation, Lu Zhong used the gray fog space to simulate.
The results proved that he was right. After adding a fruit core instead of the cloud juice that was originally supposed to be added, the rate of Ziyun Pill becoming a pill increased significantly.
"Originally, 30% was considered a success, but now I have achieved 70%..."
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Lu Zhong crushed less than half of it and burned it with spiritual fire, making it the same as medicine dregs, leaving only about 40% of Ziyun Dan.
After doing this, he opened the restriction.
Outside, the three-person council was still waiting.
Seeing Lu Zhong come out, Yang Jin said with a smile: "It seems that fellow Taoist has successfully refined the elixir. Please take out the results of the alchemy and let the three of me identify it."
"Thank you, fellow Taoists." Lu Zhonglue cupped his hand and handed out the storage bag in his hand.
Nie Shaoyun took it and started checking the bottles.
At first, she was a little disinterested, but her expression soon changed slightly.
The expressions of the other two people could not help but show a little surprise.
The three-person committee could naturally see that Lu Zhong was refining most of the elixirs for the first time, but he was able to accurately control the reaction of the aura of the elixirs, thereby minimizing the content of the erysipelas, and was able to refine three batches of top-grade elixirs at once. It shows that this person's understanding of alchemy is obviously better than theirs.
"Alas." Pei Yuanqing suddenly sighed.
Yang Jin looked overjoyed at this, and said with cupped hands: "Congratulations, fellow Taoist, for passing the first level. It seems that our branch will soon have an additional alchemy master. How about, if fellow Taoist rushes time, the second level exam can start immediately.”
Hearing this, Lu Zhong thought for a moment and said, "Let's get started."
The sooner you complete the certification, the sooner you can start forming pills.
Besides, he also wanted to see the fifth-level alchemy recipe in the alchemy alliance as soon as possible.
Seeing Lu Zhong's agreement, Nie Shaoyun handed over another storage bag, which contained materials for refining fourth-level elixirs, totaling fifteen portions.
After confirming that everything was correct, Lu Zhongcai said goodbye to the three of them and turned to enter the alchemy room.
Looking at the slowly closing door of the alchemy room, Yang Jin suddenly smiled and said in a deep voice: "Do you think this person can succeed this time? Or, how long will it take to complete the practice?"
"I think... it shouldn't be a problem for him." Nie Shaoyun said calmly.
Pei Yuanqing turned around and lowered his voice and said: "The oil and water in this branch has been determined for a long time. If there is one more alchemy master, the others will get a lot less. So... my opinion is that if he fails to make alchemy, at most, he will be awarded a high ranking." He was given the first-level alchemy certification.
"This is inappropriate." Yang Jin objected.
"What's wrong? He's clearly a baseless cultivator. In my opinion, the reason why Chen Dong is proficient in alchemy is just due to his talent. You have also seen the elixir he refined just now. The details are frizzy. You can tell at a glance that he is self-taught and there must be no teacher behind him." Pei Yuanqing said coldly.
"I don't think it's right either. The elixirs made by this man can already be said to have charm. I'm afraid we can't stop him from becoming a master of alchemy. Judging from his temperament, he is obviously a person who is proficient in fighting skills. Compared with If you hate such a person in vain, you might as well...send him to Dongzhou!"
At this time, Nie Shaoyun put forward his own opinion.
"Well, this is a good idea!" Yang Jin said with bright eyes.
In his opinion, "Chen Dong" is probably not addicted to power, otherwise he would not have reached the Nascent Soul stage before participating in the Alchemy Alliance certification, and he would most likely be an ascetic monk.
For a monk like this, the best way is to help him move up.
"That's right, the temple boy can't keep the great god, so he might as well just send him away!"
Pei Yuanqing also figured it out.
The three of them reached an agreement and waited quietly.
Although a year is long, for Yuanying monks, it is actually a blink of an eye.
But what surprised them was that "Chen Dong" had actually finished refining the elixir in just six months, and after inspection by the three-person committee, it was indeed refined with the materials provided.
This performance undoubtedly strengthened the three people's ideas.
If Lu Zhong knew at this time that the three people opposite him were desperately thinking about sending him to Dongzhou, he would probably feel dumbfounded in his heart.
After some confirmation, his alchemy master certification was undoubtedly successful.
At this time, Yang Jin took a few steps forward and said to Lu Zhong: "Congratulations to Fellow Taoist for the successful certification. This is a token representing the identity of an alchemy master. Carrying it can be recognized in Xizhou, but... with Fellow Taoist's talent for alchemy, It would be a pity to stay in this small branch in Xizhou, if..."
Hearing this, Lu Zhong guessed what he meant, so he cupped his hands and said:
"Please also ask fellow Taoist to point out a clear path!"
"If fellow Taoist intends to go further, you can go to the Eastern Continent General League for further training. It is a place where geniuses gather. I believe that with your talent, fellow Taoist will be able to stand out very quickly. It is estimated that it will take three to five hundred years to grow into a Dan." Alliance elder." Yang Jin said with a genuine expression on his face.
"Oh? There is such a way." Lu Zhong looked at him with a half-smile.
The latter seemed unaware and continued talking, only to hear Yang Jin say this: "If fellow Taoist is interested, the three of us are willing to donate the boat tickets. Considering that it is not easy for the General Alliance to further their studies, we can also give an additional 100,000 elixir coupons. This part is worth millions of spiritual stones, does Fellow Daoist Chen think it is suitable?"
Lu Zhong glanced at the three of them lightly. It was impossible to say that he was not moved by this. He fell asleep when he hit the pillow, so there was no reason to let it go. However, if you agree directly, it will seem too eager, so it is better to bargain first.
"One hundred thousand elixir coupons, too few!"
Upon hearing this, Pei Yuanqing's face darkened and he said coldly: "Don't push yourself too far!"
"Tell me, fellow Taoist, how to agree?" Nie Shaoyun said.
"Hahaha, this is easy. You can just give me five thousand copies of the elixir on this list." Lu Zhong originally wanted to make a big show of himself and asked for ten thousand copies first so that he could bargain, but he was worried that he would lose because of this. The conversation collapsed, and the words were reduced to half by the time they came out.
But to be honest, even if there are five thousand elixirs, they are only worth one million.
Maybe Lu Zhong really wanted too little.
The three people on the other side struggled for a while and actually agreed. As long as Lu Zhong signed the spiritual contract and left Xizhou on a sea ship next time, they would provide a sufficient amount of elixir.
"In this way, the cooperation will be happy!" Lu Zhong smiled lightly.
"I hope fellow Taoist monks will keep their promises." Seeing that his goal was achieved, Yang Jin's attitude toward Lu Zhong improved a lot. Before leaving, he specifically explained the alchemy master's treatment in the alchemy alliance.
1. By handing in elixirs to the alliance, the number of elixir coupons you can obtain increases;
2. You can use Danmeng facilities free of charge;
Third, there are more favorable exchange prices when exchanging Dan Alliance treasures.
Apart from this, the benefits that other certified alchemists can enjoy are the same as what Lu Zhong knew before.
After watching the other party go away, Lu Zhong did not leave immediately, but turned around and entered the elixir room again, preparing to refine all the elixirs he had bought into elixirs.
Since his transformation into a god, his cultivation has almost stagnated.
On the contrary, the growth of Yang Shen has always been smooth, but no matter how strong Yang Shen is, it is only equivalent to increasing the reservoir, and cannot increase the amount of mana.
Nowadays, it is rare to have free time, so it is natural to improve one's cultivation level.
After this exercise, we arrived before sailing.
In the past year, Yang and Jin had been worried, fearing that Lu Zhong would break the contract and not abide by it. Now that he finally came out, they felt relieved.
Nie Shaoyun, who had a rare smile on his face, walked up to Lu Zhong and handed out a storage bag containing the ship tickets and the previously agreed elixir. Then he said: "Friend Chen, tomorrow is the time for the ship to sail. I hope you will." You can make preparations in advance and don’t delay boarding the ship.”
Lu Zhong took the storage bag and after checking it, smiled and said:
"certainly!"
"Everyone, we will see you later!"
After he finished speaking, he handed over to the three of them one by one, and left the place without looking back.
Looking at the figure who left happily, Yang and Jin looked at each other, as if they couldn't believe that things would go so smoothly.
"I always feel that our proposal is exactly what Daoist Chen wants!" Pei Yuanqing said with a bitter smile.
"I think so." Nie Shaoyun said.
…
After leaving the Danmeng branch, Lu Zhong walked straight towards Fengyun Ferry.
The closer you get to the pier, the busier the streets along the way.
It seemed that he was preparing for war. Along the way, he saw many heavy-duty trucks, all of which were loaded with parts and components for various war instruments. There were even many dismantled airship components. In addition, there were neatly organized or relatively scattered mercenary teams, one after another coming out from the ferry direction.
"It seems that Linghuan Sect is really preparing to drive Huangquan Dao out of Xizhou completely!" Lu Zhong thought to himself when he saw this scene.
But these actually have nothing to do with him.
After all, he is just a foreigner.
Seeing that the ferry was just ahead, Lu Zhong's heart lifted.
“Whether it’s successful or not depends on now!”
He did not cover his ears and squeezed the passage between low-level monks and mortals. Instead, he walked into the fork next to it, which was specially designed for high-level monks. He soon came to a magnificent side hall and found the maid responsible for inspection at a glance. , showed the ferry ticket and said:
"I want to board the ship."
"Okay, senior, please... hiss!" The maid smiled at first, and then she couldn't help but take a breath of cold air when she saw the test results sent back by the real-life mirror, and her delicate face was distorted by surprise.
Transformation period!
