Lin Shuwen looked for Zhan Chen, of course Zhan Chen had to pay attention, after all, Lin Shuwen was his mentor. So, he immediately left his dormitory and went to the Purple Smoke Garden and met Lin Shuwen.

After the two sat down, Zhan Chen asked, "Teacher, why are you looking for me?"

Lin Shuwen said with a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal, I just want to ask you to do a favor, and by the way, I also introduced you to the Lin family's Dan Pavilion." ”

"If you want to help me with anything, just ask me to do it, and I will do my best to complete it. ”

"Hehe, okay! That's the case, our Lin Family Dan Pavilion recently wanted to rush to make a batch of one-star pills, and they asked me to help, but you know, I still have to teach students, and I can't spare time at all, so I recommended you, and I just let you meet Lin Xiaohan, the elder of the Dan Pavilion, I believe he will also appreciate your talent." ”

"Thank you, teacher, I will work hard to repay you and the Lin family for your cultivation. ”

"Okay, it's late today, you go back and rest, and you'll be on the road early tomorrow morning. Here's my letter of introduction, you take it. Lin Shuwen took out his letter of introduction and handed it to Zhan Chen. Zhan Chen took the letter and said goodbye to him and went back to his dormitory.

Early the next morning, Zhan Chen left the Lin Family Martial Arts Hall and came to the Swallowing Cloud City, after some inquiry, he finally learned that the Lin Family Dan Pavilion was located in the northern suburbs of the city, so he came there to take a look, what caught his eye was a continuous pavilion, there were about hundreds of buildings, these pavilions were magnificent, and there were carved decorations on the surface, which were different from the ordinary buildings in the city, showing that the Lin family attached great importance to the Dan Pavilion.

Zhan Chen stepped forward, but was stopped by the two guards and asked, "Who are you, you must not approach the Dan Pavilion Heavy Land, so as not to disturb the Dan masters' alchemy!"

Zhan Chen took out the letter of introduction and handed it to them, saying, "It was the family master Lin Shuwen who called me here." ”

A few people took the letter and looked at it, and they were immediately surprised, and said, "Is it really Elder Lin who called you?"

"Yes, he asked me to come to see Elder Lin Xiaohan, the head of the Dan Pavilion. ”

"I see, then let's go in and report it, you wait. A guard went in, and after a while he came out, and said, "Zhan Chen, you can go in, but we are very busy in the Dan Pavilion, I will take you to the alchemy room to see Elder Lin, but you should pay attention to be quiet, don't disturb the Dan Master's alchemy." ”

"I know this, I am an alchemist myself. Zhan Chen replied.

"Come with me. ”

So the guards brought Zhan Chen into the Dan Pavilion, they came to a magnificent hall, Zhan Chen saw a spectacular scene, in the hall neatly placed twenty huge Dan furnaces up to two meters high, forty alchemists were busy in front of these Dan furnaces, and each two people took turns to be responsible for the refining of a Dan furnace.

And among them, there was an old man with a white beard who was patrolling back and forth, checking the refining of each Dan furnace from time to time. The guard pointed at the old man and whispered to Zhan Chen, "See, that is Elder Lin Xiao Hanlin." ”

"I see. Zhan Chen nodded.

At this moment, Lin Xiaohan also saw the guards and Zhan Chen, he walked towards this side, and stood still in front of Zhan Chen, Zhan Chen hurriedly saluted him, and said, "In Xia Zhan Chen, meet Elder Lin!"

Lin Xiaohan stopped him with his hand and said, "Let's go outside and talk." ”

"Yes. ”

When the three of them came outside, Lin Xiaohan said to the guards, "You can leave." ”

"Yes!" the guard turned to leave.

Zhan Chen took out the letter, handed it to Lin Xiaohan, and said, "Elder Lin, this is a letter from my teacher to you. ”

Lin Xiaohan shook his head and sighed: "Your teacher is really, originally I asked him to help, but I didn't expect to send you, and I don't know if you can help me." ”

A trace of embarrassment flashed on Zhan Chen's face, and he said, "Do your best." ”

Lin Xiaohan took the letter in Zhan Chen's hand, read it, and said, "That's it, you come with me." ”

"Yes. Zhan Chen replied.

The two entered the main hall again and came to a corner of the main hall, Lin Xiaohan took out a pill furnace and said: "Zhan Chen, let me try to see how your basic skills are mastered, our Lin family wants to make a batch of pills, one of which is called the Star Refining Pill, which is a one-star pill, although this pill is simple to refine, but we need a lot of alchemy this time, we need a batch of alchemy, your cultivation is insufficient, try to refine ten pieces at a time." ”

Zhan Chen said, "Elder Lin, I can refine twenty pieces at a time. ”

"Oh?" A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Xiaohan's eyes, and he said, "An ordinary eight-star quasi-star realm alchemist refining ten pieces is already a great thing, can you really refine twenty pieces?"

"Yes, when I was studying under the teacher, I was often asked by the teacher to do such extreme refining. ”

Lin Xiaohan frowned slightly, and asked, "So what is the rate of Cheng Dan? What about the continuity? You must know that we have to refine a large number of them. ”

Zhan Chen said confidently: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing, I am willing to demonstrate it to you on the spot." ”

"Okay, you start, I'll see how many catties and taels the apprentice recommended by that guy Shuwen is. This is the herb, you take it. Lin Xiaohan took out boxes of earth elixirs and handed them to Zhan Chen, there were thousands of boxes, and with these elixirs he could refine hundreds of Star Refining Pills.

Zhan Chen took away the elixir, then took out a piece of the array disk of the Gathering Star Magic Spirit Array and activated it, spreading it under the Dan furnace, and then began to operate step by step according to his usual alchemy steps, and after about an hour, his first batch of pills came out, and the refining was successful, seventeen pills, and three waste pills.

Lin Xiaohan looked at it from the side and nodded secretly, and praised: "Well, it's really good, the success rate of the first refining has reached more than eighty percent, and the refining power of our Dan master here is only six or seven percent, Zhan Chen, come on, your task today is to finish refining all the elixirs I handed over to you." ”

"Yes!" Zhan Chen began to continue refining, while Lin Xiaohan walked away and went to inspect the situation of the other Dan furnaces.

For the next whole week, Zhan Chen was refining the Star Refining Pill, and his success rate continued to increase, from about eighty percent to nearly ninety.

A week later, Lin Xiaohan found him again and said with a smile: "Zhan Chen, I have seen your performance this week, I now know a little bit why Lin Shuwen's old thing wants to send you to me, how can you be interested in being my assistant?"

Zhan Chen asked puzzledly, "What am I going to do?"

"Of course, he assisted me in refining the pill, it was supposed to be Lin Shuwen's old guy here, but now he didn't come, but he let you come. ”

"Isn't refining the Star Refining Pill still finished?"

"Yes, the elixir we want to refine is not only one kind of refining star pill, but also the Spirit Star Pill, which is a two-star pill, and the amount of demand is not small, if it is not for the help of that guy in Shuwen, I am really not sure to complete the task. ”

"Spirit Star Pill!" Zhan Chen muttered, he was all too familiar with this elixir, because the recipe for the two-star pill that Lin Shuwen gave him at the end was the Spirit Star Pill. He had studied the jade slip in detail and knew every detail of the refining process of this elixir.

Lin Xiaohan said again: "Lin Shuwen said in the letter that you know how to refine the Spirit Star Pill, and also said that you can help me, so I tested you, and it turned out that you are indeed very good, beyond those apprentices and alchemists under me. ”

Zhan Chen frowned and said, "But my cultivation is not enough to refine the two-star elixir at all. ”

Lin Xiaohan said with a smile: "So let you be my assistant, you don't need to directly participate in alchemy, just help me control the Star Gathering Spirit Array to assist me in refining, so that I can clean up a lot of experience, and I can also refine the Spirit Star Pill in batches." ”

"Okay, I'll try it if it works or not. Zhan Chen immediately agreed, because this was a good opportunity, and if he could observe the alchemy of an Earth Star Realm alchemist up close, he would definitely learn a lot of things.

"Okay, very good, I'll just wait for your words, you come with me. ”

Subsequently, Lin Xiaohan took Zhan Chen to a secret room, this secret room is Lin Xiaohan's special alchemy room, which is nearly two hundred square meters, and in the center of the alchemy room is engraved a star-gathering magic spirit array.

Zhan Chen noticed that this Spirit Array would be twice as large as the one he used, so he said, "Elder Lin, your Star Gathering Spirit Array seems to be bigger than what we usually use. ”

Lin Xiaohan said: "Zhan Chen, there should be no absolute relationship between the size and function of the spirit array, the reason why I drew the spirit array so big is because the formation pattern of the star gathering magic spirit array is more complicated, and it is easier to draw it bigger." ”

"Then why did you carve this spirit array in the alchemy room?"

"This is my exclusive alchemy room, so I carved it, so it can be done once and for all, the spirit array in the array plate can only be used once, and I will have to engrave it again next time I want to use it, and I still think that the spirit array engraved on the ground is easy to use. ”

Zhan Chen nodded, it was indeed like this.

Lin Xiaohan took out the star stone and put it into the eye of the Spirit Array, and then said to Zhan Chen, "Zhan Chen, are you familiar with the steps of refining the Spirit Star Pill?"

Zhan Chen replied truthfully: "Our teacher has already handed over the pill prescription to me, and I have studied it carefully. ”

Lin Xiaohan smiled: "That's fine, let's start." He took out the Dan furnace, raised the fire, and threw the elixir into the Dan furnace to extract it. On the other hand, Zhan Chen began to preside over the Spirit Array, fully cooperating with Lin Xiaohan in refining. Of course, taking this opportunity, Zhan Chen can also pay attention to Lin Xiaohan stealing from the side.

With his help, Lin Xiaohan saved a lot of effort, and he could concentrate on refining the Spirit Star Pill.

It's just that the amount of star power required to refine the two-star elixir is very large, and Zhan Chen had to run the spirit array with all his strength, which consumed a lot of star power on him, so that he had to swallow some pills to restore star power in order to maintain the continuous operation of the spirit array.

Half a day later, the first batch of Spirit Star Pills refined by Lin Xiaohan came out, he put the refined pills into the jade bottle one by one, then turned his head and said to Zhan Chen happily: "Zhan Chen, I didn't expect the refining effect this time to be so good, I invested thirty elixirs and refined a full twenty Spirit Star Pills, and the waste pill only accounted for one-third." ”

Zhan Chen asked, "Is the success rate of the Spirit Star Pill six or seventy percent?"

Lin Xiaohan shook his head and said, "No, if I refine only fifty percent of the Cheng Dan rate by myself, and it will take an extra hour, Zhan Chen, thanks to your help, the cooperation between you and me is simply seamless." ”
