Chapter 31 Fearless in the face of danger
"Don't panic, take your time!" Zhao He said.
Zhan Chen hurriedly stabilized his mind, learned what Zhao He had done before, put all the medicinal materials into the Dan furnace, and then sent his true qi into the furnace.
At first, it seemed to go well, and the residue of the herbs was slowly evaporated, revealing the essence of it, but he immediately noticed that something was wrong, as a faint smell of burning came from the Dan furnace.
I heard Zhao He say on the side: "Zhan Chen, your true qi output is too strong, you have to reduce the flames, so as not to destroy the essence of the medicinal materials." ”
Zhan Chen knew what he was wrong at this time, and hurriedly reduced the output of true qi, and the beating of the flames slowed down.
I heard Zhao He prompting on the side: "Hurry up and seal!"
He hurriedly took out one hand and drew the runes with his true qi suspended in the air, but as soon as he finished drawing the five runes, he only heard a bang, and the first true qi rune burst open, and the seal completely failed!
At this time, the scorching smell in the Dan furnace became stronger and stronger, and Zhan Chen had to open the lid of the furnace and take out the burnt pill in it, a little frustrated, the first alchemy can be described as being in a hurry.
Zhao He, who knew that Zhao He on the side smiled and said: "Yes, yes, Zhan Chen, you have basically mastered the process of refining the Rejuvenation Pill, as long as you practice more, practice makes perfect, and if you can master the refining technique of the Rejuvenation Pill proficiently, I will teach you to refine the Lingxiao Pill." ”
"Lingxiao Pill!" Zhan Chen's eyes showed longing, you must know that the sect only gives the inner disciple Lingxiao Pill 10 a month, which is not enough at all!
"Then teacher, let's continue!" At this time, Zhan Chen's alchemy mood suddenly rose.
Zhao He handed him another medicinal herb, but unfortunately the second furnace failed. When he wanted to refine the third furnace again, he found that his true qi had been exhausted, and he didn't expect that alchemy was also a physical job.
At this time, Zhao He said: "Zhan Chen, you are still a beginner martial artist cultivator, and your true qi is limited, so that's all for today, you can go back and rest first." ”
So he left the Feiyun Hall and returned to his courtyard, at this time it was still early, his energy was still sufficient, how could Zhan Chen, who had always worked hard, rest?
So, he swallowed another Lingxiao Pill and began to sit on the futon and cultivate the "Broken Gold Decision", the meridians that had been squeezed dry before greedily devoured the spiritual energy in the air, and continuously transformed into true qi.
Zhan Chen actually felt that his cultivation progress was twice as fast as normal! After alchemy, he was able to speed up his cultivation efficiency!
In this way, 6 hours passed, and Zhan Chen stood up after finishing his work, and had a trace of enlightenment: the reason why alchemy can have the effect of accelerating cultivation is because the process of alchemy is a process of slowly depleting the true qi in the body.
This is equivalent to maximizing the potential of the warrior's body without putting too much burden on the body. Then, if you practice the exercises, you will naturally be able to achieve the good effect of one piece at a time, one by one, and one by one.
So early the next morning, Zhao He saw Zhan Chen's figure again in Feiyun Palace, and asked in surprise: "Zhan Chen, why have you become so diligent?"
Zhan Chen raised his head and said, "Teacher, the apprentice has a request. ”
"Say it. ”
"Can you allow me to come here every day to learn alchemy?"
"Oh, you're very interested in alchemy, unlike your three senior brothers and sisters, who can't run away. Zhao He said happily.
"Yes, master, I still feel that my alchemy is far from enough, please allow me. ”
"Okay! Since you are willing to learn, I am willing to teach!" Zhao He is more and more he feels that Zhan Chen is pleasing to the eye, as an alchemist, the most happy thing is, of course, that his mantle can be inherited and carried forward.
"Then teacher, let's start right away!" Zhan Chen couldn't wait. 、
"Let's go, let's go to the alchemy room. ”
......
So Zhan Chen began to have a regular cultivation life, and early every morning, he would rush to Feiyun Peak to learn alchemy, in order to drain the true qi in his body, and then return home to cultivate.
And Zhao He thought that this apprentice was very "diligent and studious", and he became more and more satisfied with him, and taught him his alchemy skills, so Zhan Chen not only quickly mastered the trick of refining the Rejuvenation Pill, but also began to learn to refine the Lingxiao Pill.
In this way, when the other inner court disciples were still worrying about Lingxiao every day, Zhan Chen was already cultivating with Lingxiao Pill every day. As a result, his cultivation speed reached more than twice that of an ordinary inner disciple.
And in the process, the relationship between him and Zhao He has become more and more intimate. It is worth mentioning that he often meets Su Yun at the door of his house, after all, the yards of the two are very close, and they are familiar with each other.
However, such a peaceful day did not last for a few days, on this day, Zhan Chen was still alchemy with Zhao He in the alchemy room as usual, and suddenly heard an angry roar from outside the hall: "Zhan Chen!
Zhan Chen and Zhao He hurriedly stopped what they were doing and came to the main hall to take a look, but saw a burly old man with a meaty face standing at the door, his eyes full of anger.
When Zhao He saw him, he called: "Old Man Lan Hong, why are you shouting in front of my Feiyun Palace?"
"Lan Hong!" Zhan Chen's heart was suddenly shocked, what should have come is always coming, he thought he could hide for a longer time.
Lan Hong didn't answer, he saw Zhan Chen's eyes suddenly full of blood, and quickly walked up to him and said angrily: "You are Zhan Chen!"
At this time, Zhan Chen only felt a mountain-like pressure pressing on his body, and he couldn't even move a finger, and he was horrified in his heart: "I didn't expect that the gap between martial artists and martial artists would be so big." ”
But there was a voice in his heart that was screaming angrily: "Zhan Chen, you resist me!"
So Zhan Chen gritted his teeth against Lan Hong's mighty flames, saluted him calmly, and said, "Yes, Elder Lan." ”
"My grandson Lan Xing was killed by you?" Lan Hong stared at Zhan Chen's eyes, hoping to see something flaw in his eyes.
"Lan Xing, what's wrong with him?" Zhan Chen pretended to be puzzled.
"Did you kill him? I've found solid evidence!" Lan Hong took another step towards him.
Zhan Chen still remained calm, pretending to be confused and said, "Elder Lan, I don't know what you're talking about, I don't know where Young Master Lan is. ”
"And say no, you are the most suspicious! At the same time that you left the sect, it happened that my grandson also left the sect, and you have the greatest grudge against him!" Lan Hong questioned him further.
"Grudge, Elder Lan, I'm afraid you're mistaken, I don't have the slightest grudge against Young Master Lan, I defeated him in both competitions, and I have no reason to resent him. Zhan Chen continued to argue.
"No matter, my star is missing, this must have something to do with you, you go back with me to investigate. Lan Hong looked very domineering, and stretched out his hand to grab Zhan Chen.
At this time, Zhao He, who was on the side, couldn't stand it anymore, stretched out his hand to stop him, and said, "Lan Hong, what do you want to do? Zhan Chen is my apprentice, you said that Lan Xing's disappearance is related to him, is there any evidence?"
"Everything has to be investigated to find out. ”
"If there is no evidence, don't think about taking people away! Your Blue Star is so high and powerful in the sect, it is hard to guarantee that there are no other enemies, why only hold my apprentice?"
Lan Hong was also speechless for a while, it is true that Lan Xing is not only unable to get along with Zhan Chen, but everything points to Zhan Chen, which is most likely related to the disappearance of his grandson.
The atmosphere became stale, and the two sides confronted each other for a while before Lan Hong dropped a sentence: "Hmph, Zhan Chen, Zhao He, you wait for me, the old man will not give up!" before turning around and brushing his sleeves away.
Zhao He shouted at his figure: "Lan Hong, don't be arrogant, remember that your cultivation is still one level lower than mine, if you don't come up with conclusive evidence, you dare to be unfavorable to my disciples, I won't sit idly by!"
It wasn't until Lan Hong's back completely disappeared from view that Zhan Chen felt that his heart was still pounding, although on the surface he pretended to be casual, but at this time, Lan Xing's Qiankun bag was lying in his arms, how could he not be weak-hearted?
After calming down, Zhan Chen turned around and said apologetically, "Teacher, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble." ”
"Hmph! This Lan Hong has a very bad reputation in the sect, and our elders can't stand his arrogance for a long time, don't worry, if he comes to the door again, there is a teacher to support you, forgive him and don't dare to do anything!"
Zhan Chen nodded, thinking in his heart: "It seems that Lan Hong has noticed me, now my cultivation is still shallow, and I can't confront him head-on, fortunately, with the support of my master, there is no need to be afraid of him in the sect, but you have to be careful outside the sect." ”
