Xiao He continued: "I said that during the years of practicing in the mountains with Master, Master only taught me theory, and the exercises he taught were completely different from his own exercises that were full of evil spirits."
"The demon has good intentions. He knows that his skills are not suitable for you, so he has carefully polished your foundation. I believe that this experience down the mountain was also deliberately arranged by him!"
"That's exactly the case. When Master gave me the Dragon Valley Sword, he also specifically told me not to reveal it to others until a critical moment. I always felt that Master was afraid that I wouldn't be able to use the Dragon Valley Sword flexibly." Xiao He replied.
The eaves sank for a moment and he said, "This may be considered part of the reason, but more importantly it is because I am afraid that you will cause death to yourself."
Xiao He said: "Master indeed said that, but I don't understand what it means."
Tianyanzi replied: "The demon has always been a wanderer and is not bound by etiquette. When he was young, he had enmity with many immortal sects. He had countless things like stealing elixirs and stealing books. Because he liked to kill, he Although there are many enemies, the mad demon has a very deep knowledge and has not encountered an opponent for hundreds of years. If you let the various sects know that you are a disciple of the mad demon, you will naturally cause trouble."
Xiao He shook his head and smiled, and said: "This junior is really not a person who is afraid of trouble."
Tianyanzi continued: "You don't know something. Epileptic Demon is a loose person in the world. Although his cultivation level is extremely high, he does not belong to any sect. Therefore, there have been rumors from various sects in the eastern part of Fengqiong Continent that they are cultivating immortals. He is a demon disciple."
"Demon clan?" Xiao He said in surprise.
"Yes, the demon tribe is located in the west of Fengqiong Continent and has always been eyeing the eastern part of our continent. It is only because of the gods that they have some scruples, so they have not caused any trouble. However, all the sects of cultivators understand that the relationship between us and the demon tribe , there will be a battle sooner or later."
"I see, what is a demon and what is a god?" Xiao He said to himself.
"You don't have to worry about it. The mad demon has always been in the eastern part of the continent and has never interacted with the demon clan. What's more, what he does doesn't look like a minion of the demon clan!" Tianyanzi said.
"Don't worry, Taoist Master, no matter what, master is master after all. I still know this truth!" Xiao He said.
"That's very good!" Tianyanzi said, "However, I came to see you today and there is another thing I want to tell you."
"Master Taoist, please speak!" Xiao He said still respectfully.
"Since I have said that I will leave you as a handyman in the mountain, you can help me when I am refining the elixir. Today, I will be refining the elixir for Senior Brother Tianjizi," Tian Yanzi said.
"Don't worry, Taoist Master, I will listen to you, junior!"
Tianyanzi said with a benevolent smile: "It just so happens that you should follow me to learn this simple method of alchemy." After that, he turned and walked down the mountain.
Xiao He also followed him all the way. In fact, there was one thing that Xiao He had already tacitly understood, that is, he felt that Tianyanzi had long wanted to teach him, but it was only because of other people's words and the relationship between his master's madness that he could not mention it. It's just a matter of course, but taking this opportunity to learn alchemy is naturally a good thing for myself.
In this way, Xiao He followed Tianyanzi to the alchemy secret room, and stood in front of the green wooden cauldron. Tianyanzi looked at the alchemy furnace in front of him and said: "The so-called alchemy is also a profound knowledge, from preparing herbs to completing them." Dan needs to go through many steps, starting with refining, extracting the essence of the herb.”
After Tianyanzi finished speaking, he palmed his hands, and there was a small green furnace hanging on his palm. He waved his other hand gently, and the box sent by Tianjizi was opened immediately, and the three herbal medicines floated into the furnace. . Then, Tianyanzi's palm holding the small stove shone with green light, and the three herbs gradually turned into a thick white pulp, merging together in the blink of an eye.
Xiao He was still surprised, and Tianyanzi continued to speak: "The dragon's hand grass, bamboo leaf grass and phoenix grass sent by senior brother Tianjizi are all excellent herbs for strengthening the body and cultivating the body. You are new to learning the art of alchemy and extracting the essence. You must extract it blindly and never rush for success.”
Xiao He nodded in agreement.
After saying that, Tianyanzi's eyes widened and he said in a deep voice: "Turn on the furnace!"
The lid of the green wooden cauldron opened in response, Tianyanzi pushed it gently with his left hand, and the thick slurry of the three herbs that had just merged into one flew into the furnace, and the lid fell down immediately.
Tianyanzi continued to say that the most important thing when preparing the elixir is the proportions. The so-called monarch, ministers and envoys must not deviate in the slightest. If there is a slight difference, the potency of the medicine will be greatly reduced, and if it is serious, the poison will attack the heart. Don't be careless.
Xiao He listened to Tianyanzi's teachings, and his eyes carefully watched Tianyanzi's every step and every movement.
"The third step is to use medicine as a guide. The Pill of Strengthening the Origin and Strengthening the Origin is most suitable for early-stage immortal cultivators. I think Senior Brother Tianjizi must have taken on another good disciple. For junior cultivators, using the gallbladder of a century-old snake as a medicine is most suitable. !" After Tianyanzi finished speaking, he waved his hands, and sure enough, another snake gallbladder flew into the furnace from the medicine box.
The furnace lid was closed again, and Tianyanzi continued: "The last step, which is also a crucial step, is to refine the fire. The mastery of the fire often determines the success rate of the alchemy. With your current cultivation level, you can support this elementary level. There is no problem with the alchemy ritual, you have to watch every step carefully and practice more in the future!"
"Senior, don't worry, Xiao He will definitely practice harder."
Tianyanzi no longer paid attention to Xiao He. With a wave of his hands, two green qi were injected into the furnace. The fire in the furnace suddenly became brighter. In less than a stick of incense, the entire furnace body began to shake slightly.
Tianyanzi continued: "This is the prelude to the elixir. At this moment, the heat must be input steadily. You must follow your heart with your eyes, your heart and your hands, so that your mana delivery is in the same rhythm as your own Dantian breathing!"
Just when Xiao He was digesting Tianyanzi's teachings in his mind, the Qingmu Cauldron shook even more violently. With a loud sound of breaking through the air, the furnace lid flew up, and two milky white pills flew out from the mouth of the furnace. Yanzi immediately raised his hand and made a closing gesture, and the milky white pills were put into a red round box.
Tianyanzi opened the lid and brought it to Xiao He and said, "Look, this is the Strengthening Origin Pill and Yuan Peiyuan Pill refined by Guiyan Peak's secret method."
Xiao He lowered his head and looked at the white pills in front of him. He felt a fresh scent of grass and trees blowing into his face, and his whole body seemed to be passing through a warm current, which made him feel extremely comfortable. It seemed to be more comfortable than the pill that my master, Epilepsy, stole for me that day.
"Just by smelling it, you can feel the miraculous effects of this elixir. When I was chatting with Xingyu, he once said, Taoist Master, your elixir refining method and collection of heavenly materials and earthly treasures are unparalleled in the entire Liuguang Blessed Land. It's common! But if that's the case, what's the use of the alchemy room in the front mountain? And now looking back at Yun Lin and Yun Xia's cultivation, they seem to be very mediocre. Is it just to deceive others?" Xiao He asked doubtfully.
Hearing what Xiao He said, Tianyanzi suddenly became serious and said, "This is Guiyanfeng's matter and has nothing to do with you. Just mind your own business!"
"Yes!" Xiao He said respectfully.
"You should continue to practice this alchemy method carefully. When Senior Brother Tianjizi's disciples come to get the medicine, just give them this Strengthening Origin Pill!"
"Junior knows!" Xiao He replied.
Tianyanzi seemed to see Xiao He's doubts and said: "Since I promised to teach you alchemy, I will naturally do what I say. I will give you the alchemy method and this small tripod. You can follow the skills recorded in the book." If you practice the Fa, you will get twice the result with half the effort!”
Xiao He was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly thanked Tianyanzi and said, "Xiao He thanks Taoist Priest!"
"Don't be too polite. As I said, this is just a favor to the demon." Tianyanzi said calmly, then turned and left.
Xiao He lowered his head and looked at the book and small tripod Tianyanzi gave him.
On the cover of the book, "Waitan Dharma Sutra" is written in simple fonts, and on the small green tripod, there are also two words engraved on it, called: Xu Zhu.
Xiao He thought in his heart: Like the Dragon Valley Sword, these two treasures must have been obtained by Taoist Priest Tianyanzi in the early days of his practice, and they must have followed him for many years. He did not expect that he would encounter so many lucky things not long after he started practicing. There are many secrets and things going on in Guiyan Peak, and it seems that even my master, Madman, doesn’t know about it. I don’t know if this is a good thing or a bad thing for me! I don’t even know when my time in Guiyan Peak will end.
However, these things are not the most important to Xiao He. He has other doubts in his mind, that is, his Dragon Valley Sword. According to what Tianyanzi said, if two different magic weapons cannot be used at the same time, Fusion with his own Dantian, he should have mentioned this when the demon gave him the Dragon Valley Sword. Could it be that Master knew that Senior Liquor Monster's gourd was a higher-level magic weapon, so he felt that he could not fuse with it quickly? But the fact is that his Dantian has been fused with the Dragon Valley Sword and the Wine Gourd at the same time, but it is safe and sound. Could it be related to the blessing from the expert he met that day? Xiao He was puzzled.
With a thought, he summoned the wine gourd and the Dragon Valley Sword. Looking at the two magic weapons held in his left and right hands, Xiao He recalled that day when he met the Piaokong Ligui, the wine gourd suddenly blocked the fatal blow, and the Piaokong Ligui At that time, he shouted that Daluo Jinxian was here. What on earth was going on?
Xiao He did not mention these doubts in his heart to Tianyanzi. Not only did he have scruples, but he also felt that he needed to uncover the answers to these mysteries one by one.
A duel with Xingyu failed to help him test out the depth of the Dragon Valley Sword in the end. Helplessly, Xiao He took the two magic weapons back to his dantian and began to carefully study the "Water Valley Sword" given to him by Tianyanzi. Alchemy Sutra
Alchemy is divided into outer alchemy and inner alchemy. This "Outer Alchemy Sutra" talks about the refining method of outer alchemy stone. It is really a rare treasure book. Cooking medicinal stones with Qi and fire can have the effect of changing the physique and transforming Yin Qi into Yang. Moreover, the elixir refined by the secret method can replace the fetal breath of the dragon and tiger, exhale the old and absorb the new, and practice cultivation with just one elixir. It can be taken to the next level.
Xiao He had long known the benefits of elixirs from Epilepsy, but he really didn't want to be like his old man who always relied on stealing and robbing, and wanted to learn the method of refining elixirs by himself. So, he shut down his six senses and held " "Waitan Dharma Sutra" and closed the small pass.
