Chapter 9: The Elixir
The sky gradually brightened, and a few lights appeared on the horizon, and it seemed to be lively outside the door.
Shi Yan sat paralyzed on the ground, in order not to delay his cultivation while practicing his body.
Therefore, he got up early before dawn every day, started training, and did not rest until dawn.
I saw that under his bronzed skin, there were solid muscles wrapped in pieces, which made people feel shocked.
Although he is not very old, his immature face has been faintly resolute after a long period of training, which makes people moved.
Feeling the unusually active aura in his body, he knew that he should have reached a bottleneck.
"Thanks to Qingrou's medicine, otherwise I'm afraid I wouldn't have recovered so well!"
"It seems that the alchemist is still eating well, by the way! Stone eyes slapped his head.
Standing in place, Shi Yan hesitated a little, and finally decided not to disturb his father-in-law!
"Yo, junior brother, go down the mountain again. ”
When I walked to the door, I heard an emotionless voice from behind.
"Big brother. Stone eyes turned.
"Hehe, you're smart, you know you can't protect your sister?"
"It doesn't matter if you die, if my sister is injured, you should die!" the young man threatened.
Seeing that Shi Yan was unmoved, he was ready to leave. The young man's heart was filled with rage.
stepped forward and pressed his shoulder, "It's going to be a disciple selection soon, don't be ashamed of you as the adopted son of the sect master!"
He gritted his teeth and put the words of his adopted son close to his ear, as if to deliberately provoke him.
"Thank you Senior Brother for your concern!" After speaking, he vigorously pushed away the hand that exuded spiritual power and turned to leave.
"Tsk, it's a lot of strength. The young man said secretly, his grim gaze staring at his departing back.
You know, he has spiritual power in his hand and suppresses him, and he can actually push it away by brute force?
"You wild monkey, if you don't know what to do and dare to pester Qingrou, don't blame me......"
Rubbing the painful shoulder with his hand, he said secretly, "It is worthy of being a spirit master, if an ordinary spirit disciple receives this palm, I am afraid that the bones will be broken." ”
Ever since he was sensible, the young man had never given him a good look, and even secretly attacked him.
He also understands that he is an outsider, but he has become a sectarian, and he is inseparable from Qingrou, which is a provocation for the senior brother.
And he didn't want to embarrass his father-in-law because of himself, because the young man was Xiao Keshen, the only son of the Great Elder Xiao Kedi.
It can be said that if it weren't for himself, the next sect master would definitely be him, so he has always been a thorn in his side.
But in order not to alarm his father-in-law, he endured it everywhere, but he didn't expect that he was going too far.
"Alas, there is no way to go on like this, I have to find a time to explain to my father-in-law. ”
As for the sect master, he was not interested at all, he just wanted to find his biological parents.
I thought I had a good plan, and I felt that I should be able to mediate this conflict, and my heart was relaxed.
"Girl, thank you for me! This time I gave the old man a big gift!"
"Grandpa Ouyang, you are the No. 1 alchemist in the county capital, my father said, no matter what you want to do, he will support you!"
"Haha! You girl is really good at talking, come, drink tea, that's the old man's private spiritual tea, you wait. ”
"Hmmm! Thank you, Grandpa. ”
"Hmm, that's supposed to be it, right?" Stone Eyes stood outside the door and knocked on it.
"Who?" a man opened the door and looked at Stone Eyes.
"Hurry away, child, the master has not seen any guests during this time. ”
"Huh, did Hall Master Ouyang ask me to come over?"
"Heh, are you making me happy in broad daylight?" the man laughed angrily!
"Well, this is what the master gave me. As he spoke, he took out the sign that Ouyang Ning gave him.
"I'm talking about you...... Your Excellency, please!" When he saw the wooden sign, he swallowed the words that had already come to his lips.
"Oh, then I'm in!" said Shi Yan, looking at the humble man in front of him.
"Your Excellency, please!" the man hurriedly stepped out of the way, for fear of making Shi Yan angry.
Walking through the aisle, I saw a girl in blue in front of me staring at her.
"How did you get in?"
I only heard the girl ask angrily.
"This girl, do we know each other?" Shi Yan wondered.
"You..." Zi Yun almost crushed her silver teeth when she heard this.
In fact, it's not to blame Shi Yan, yesterday she was wearing armor and a silver helmet, majestic.
Today, she is wearing a light blue dress, her hair is draped behind her, like a hibiscus out of the water, and she has completely changed her appearance.
Just as the two looked at each other awkwardly, Ouyang Ning finally came out.
"Hey, Yun Xiaoyou!Haha! You're really here!"
"Master!" said Shi Yan, bowing.
Seeing the scene in front of her, Zi Yun only felt that he was very hypocritical, so she snorted coldly and turned her head away.
Ouyang Ning also felt interesting when he saw her appearance, and he didn't think it was a big deal, and said: "I haven't introduced it yet, this is the county lord of Ziyun, you have already seen it yesterday." ”
"Ah, is she yesterday's woman?" Shi Yan looked at the old man in surprise.
Ouyang Ning looked at him with a smile and nodded.
"I can't believe you're quite forgetful! You made fun of me yesterday, and today you forgot about it completely. ”
"I'm sorry county lord, but compared to yesterday, your outfit today can be said to be a big change!"
"Okay, you two little ones, why are you talking so stingingly! Ouyang Ning hurriedly parted the two of them and joked.
"Hmph! A man's mouth is still so stinging. Ziyun complained.
When Shi Yan heard this, he was also a little embarrassed, so he pretended to cough and did not answer.
Feeling the subtle atmosphere in front of him, Ouyang Ning couldn't stand aside and watch the play anymore!
"Yun Xiaoyou, come with the old man!"
Shi Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and hurriedly followed.
Seeing the two leaving, Zi Yun was also a little curious, so she quietly followed.
"If you want to refine the pill, you must first understand the pill, and the old man will take you to understand the world of the pill today!"
"Thank you, Master!" Shi Yan said excitedly.
"Okay, girl, don't peek, come over too!"
I saw Ziyun walk in from outside the door in embarrassment.
"Okay, sit down, as long as your father doesn't mind, the old man is willing to teach. ”
"How could it be, father, he would definitely agree. ”
"Well, first of all, you must understand that alchemists and forgers are both spiritual masters, and we need to rely on spiritual power to perceive the state of objects. ”
"So, if you want to become an alchemist, you must first become a spiritual master!"
"However, spiritual power also relies on spiritual power! Because only a spiritual master can release spiritual energy, so you must first reach the realm of spiritual master!"
"Ahh
"Your situation is special, and it's not for you to go to alchemy, so don't worry. Ouyang Ning explained.
"Oh, oh, okay!" Shi Yan let go of the worries in his heart.
The old man continued: "The alchemist is also divided into nine grades like the martial artist, but so far, I have not heard of a nine-rank alchemist. ”
"Now, the strongest alchemist in the empire is Master Bai, who has become a five-grade alchemist!" Ouyang Ning said enviously.
"Grandpa, aren't you also a third-grade alchemist?" Zi Yun comforted.
"Haha, the old man is a little bit in front of Master Bai!" he was bitter.
"Spiritual power is an ethereal existence, so it is not easy to cultivate, but it is also not to be underestimated, it can directly hurt the soul.
"In battle, it's no joke to be as small as a momentary loss of consciousness or as big as a direct coma. ”
The slightest mistake in battle can cause an irreparable situation, not to mention damage to the soul.
Shi Yan's eyes lit up, obviously interested in this.
"Then there is alchemy, the four steps of alchemy, powder, condensate, prototype, and Dancheng. ”
"Grandpa, is there a pill that can be taken only after condensation?" Ziyun interrupted.
"That's right, it can even be used as a pill powder, but the effect of the medicine will be much reduced. ”
Then you have to learn to feel, to close your eyes, to get rid of distractions, to empty your mind. ”
Shi Yan tried according to his words, and sure enough, he could vaguely feel his side.
"Hmm, I can't feel anything!" Zi Yun wondered on the side.
Ouyang Ning smiled, shook his head, and motioned not to disturb Shi Yan.
Zi Yun closed her mouth and glared at Shi Yan, what are you pretending to be, can you feel it.
After a moment, I saw Shi Yan open his eyes.
"How is it?" Ouyang Ning said eagerly.
"You can feel it vaguely, but there is a stinging pain. ”
"Haha! Since you can feel the spirit stone, it's normal to feel it. Ouyang Ning said happily.
He said a little seriously: "But in the future, you should try not to take such risks, if you are not careful, you will hurt the origin, that is not a joke." ”
"Well, thank you, Master. ”
Looking at the two who were chatting, I only felt an inexplicable sense of frustration in my heart.
"Girl, don't worry, take your time! Mental power is not only limited by your own conditions, but also by your parents. ”
"Just like your father, although he is strong, he can be said to know nothing about spiritual power. ”
"Then why can he feel it?" Zi Yun was still a little unconvinced.
"It's very simple! I felt it by accident!" said Shi Yan.
"You..."
"Okay, you two little guys, you really don't want to stop for a while. Ouyang Ning said helplessly.
"Shi Yan, you need to improve your strength as soon as possible now, so that you can stabilize your mental power!"
"Grandpa, then I'll go back first!"
"Okay, I've been out for so long, and if I'm okay in the future, I'll often come to Grandpa's place to sit. ”
"Okay!" After speaking, he was still angry, and raised his fist at Shi Yan.
Shi Yan directly ignored it.
"You guy, aren't you worried at all? she's the county lord!" Ouyang Ning quipped.
Shi Yan didn't care, "I haven't broken the law, why should I worry." ”
"Haha, yes, sit upright, and be open-minded. ”
"It's quite uncomfortable to forcibly suppress the aura! Seeing that your state seems to be able to break through at any time!" Ouyang Ning saw his situation at a glance.
"Hmm!" Shi Yan didn't seem surprised, as a master, if he didn't even have this bit of eyesight, it could only be said that he was in vain.
"You can break through here today, you can rest assured that no one will disturb you. With that, he turned and left.
Just kidding, what kind of place is this, it seems that there are not many people in the whole county who dare to do anything with him.
Shi Yan was not pretentious, "Thank you, master!"
He has been pressed from the morning to the present, and if he doesn't break through, I'm afraid he will hold back internal injuries.
Shi Yan sat on the ground, closed his eyes, and felt the surging aura in his body......
