Chapter 44: The Alchemist Eats Favor
Two days have passed since the defeat of Long Hai, and the storm of discussions against Yu Linchen has finally stopped, and there are big things happening every day, so the things that are causing a sensation will also be buried by time.
Lin Chen had been very calm in the past two days, but the sense of oppression in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, and he always felt that there were many people wandering outside the Tengda Palace, secretly peeping at him.
Obviously, many cultivators in the Shanshui Sect had noticed themselves, and many of them seemed to have bad intentions.
After a month of cultivation, Lin Chen's cultivation resources were almost consumed, and although the wealth stored in the white jade bracelet of the elder of the Forestry Sect was very strong, almost all of the pills were eaten up by the crescent moon.
It also includes those that are refined from the Divine Furnace.
Crescent Moon eating these things is not useless, she can now keep sleeping for half a year, when Lin Chen needs her, she can ask her to help at any time, and more importantly, as long as Crescent Moon Er recovers enough strength, she can also help Lin Chen turn on another divine light.
According to Yueya'er, there are many very weak exercises in this group of divine light, which are much stronger than those first-order magic methods of the Shanshui Sect. At that time, if you learn a random one, it will be worth it to consume as many pills as you want.
Lin Chen still had more than two hundred low-grade spirit stones now, but he couldn't rashly exchange them for pills, which would definitely be coveted. Just kidding, if a fifth-grade cultivator takes out hundreds of lower-grade spirit stones to exchange for pills at once, no one will be greedy.
And if he changes them one by one, there is no need, then how long will it take!The best way is to buy these spirit stones into medicinal materials for refining pills, now that Lin Chen has a divine furnace, the speed of refining pills is very fast, what is lacking is just materials.
In fact, the materials of the pill are not very valuable, except for some demon beads and special spirit grasses, the others are very cheap, under normal circumstances, the cost of the materials required to refine a pill is not even one-tenth of the value of the pill itself.
The most difficult part of refining the elixir is the refining process. Dan Fang is needed, precise skills are also needed, and the control of fire is not something that any cultivator can master.
Therefore, a clever alchemist is a very popular profession in the cultivation world.
Many people are able to become excellent cultivators, and it is not a problem to step into the sixth grade, but it is not easy to become an excellent alchemist.
After thinking about it in his heart for a moment, Lin Chen decided that he still wanted to go outside, he gave the remaining ten Dao Li Pills to Li Yuting and Elder Bai, and originally planned to teach them the method of refining talismans, but after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't do so.
The Shanshui Sect strictly forbade beginner disciples to teach the exercises above the first order of the magic method to others, otherwise they would be punished, now so many people are secretly staring at Lin Chen, if they accidentally get caught, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Alas, if this landscape faction doesn't stay, if it weren't for the sake of not making people suspicious, in order to restore Yuting's freedom, I would choose to leave. ”
Lin Chen secretly said in his heart, although joining the sect can be protected by the sect, his freedom is also restricted.
Unless he has reached the sixth rank of cultivation and has a certain status in the Shanshui Sect, he will not be restricted to death.
The master of the six grades is definitely an important figure in a small sect like the Shanshui School, and he is very free in cultivation.
For example, some six-rank masters have been outside for many years to experience exploration and improve their strength, and they will be summoned back unless there is a major incident in the sect.
"Senior Brother Lin Chen, Elder Fan Wen asked you to go back to Tianzhuang Pavilion, he has something to see you. ”
Just as Lin Chen was thinking about going out on a mission, an outer disciple came to the Tengda Hall and spoke for Elder Fan Wen.
Lin Chen's heart tightened, although this was within his expectations, but when he really came, he was still a little nervous.
When Elder Fan Wen looked for himself, he must have wanted to know how his strength had improved so quickly.
These days, he has also heard all kinds of rumors about himself among his disciples, the most vicious of which is that he thinks that he is a spy sent by the disciples of the Demon Sect, and he also involves Li Yuting.
"Don't worry, Elder Fan Wen couldn't find out anything last time, and it definitely won't work this time, as long as I deal with it carefully, I can get through this difficulty. Lin Chen was worried in his heart, cheering himself up.
In fact, even Elder Bai and Li Yuting didn't know where Lin Chen got so many pills, Lin Chen had only told them that he had been to the Demon Gathering Valley once.
In the Tianzhuang Pavilion, one by one the disciples were carefully drawing the talismans on the table in front of them, and almost all of the eighteen spirit runes with various effects were selected, and even the most difficult to refine thunder attribute spirit runes, there were also some disciples who were drawing.
It's a pity that the success rate of this kind of spirit rune is very small, and it is already very good for ordinary disciples to draw three out of ten successfully, and the materials are also very difficult to collect, and the demon beasts of the thunder attribute are rarer than the attributes of gold, wood, water, fire and earth.
Even Lin Chen, until now, he has not obtained a thunder attribute demon bead, thunder, darkness, and light These attributes are originally very special, and they are the products of the five elements derived to the extreme.
The moment Lin Chen walked into Tianzhuang Pavilion, almost all the cultivators stopped what they were doing, and their eyes fell on him. There is amazement, there is worship, there is envy, there is jealousy, and there is indifference.
Ever since Lin Chen had killed Long Hai three days ago, his status had immediately soared in the hearts of many disciples of Tianzhuang Pavilion, and even a very small number of sixth-rank cultivators had admired him very much.
"Senior Brother Lin Chen, you are really amazing, a few of us will mess with you in the future. ”
Guan Sun and a group of beginner disciples who were more familiar with Lin Chen all changed their names for Lin Chen at this moment, from junior brother to senior brother.
They all gathered to Lin Chen's side and said enthusiastically.
"Where, we are all disciples of Tianzhuang Pavilion, so we will naturally take care of each other in the future. The talisman refining experience you passed on to me last time was very useful, and I can't thank you enough. ”
Although Lin Chen's strength has improved, he still feels cordial to the people in front of him, and his tone is gentle and authentic.
"Senior Brother Lin Chen, you have to be more careful of the people of Nanyun Sect, I'm afraid they won't give up. A disciple who looked very stable walked over and kindly admonished Lin Chen.
"Senior Brother Lin Chen, this is Senior Brother Cook, he, like you, is the pride of my Tianzhuang Pavilion!hehe!" Guan Sun, who was tall and looked a little honest, introduced Lin Chen.
"Thank you Senior Brother Ku for reminding me, I will definitely be more careful, those people in Nanyunmen, if you don't rub their sharpness, they will always think that we are easy to bully. ”
Lin Chen's eyes swept over Lu Ping, and he was slightly taken aback in his heart, this person's strength was definitely already in the seventh rank or even stronger.
Cook has thick eyebrows and big eyes, his words and deeds give people a bold feeling, he laughed, gave Lin Chen a thumbs up, and said:
"You have a lot of backbone and potential, and I hope you can win more glory for Tianzhuang Pavilion in the future. If you have any difficulties, you can tell us at any time, and our group of brothers and sisters will definitely try our best to help you. ”
Lin Chen nodded, he had a good impression of Cook. At this moment, a slightly old voice in a hall in the Tianzhuang Pavilion said, "Lin Chen, you come in." ”
"It's Elder Fan Wen. Lin Chen's figure couldn't help but tremble slightly, and he repeated the answer he had already thought of in his heart, and then walked into the hall.
Elder Fan Wen was standing in front of a tall statue of a god at this time, still holding a cyan wine gourd in his hand, and when he saw Lin Chen come in, he put the wine gourd to his mouth and poured a sip of wine.
"Is there something wrong with the elders?"
Lin Chen was nervous in his heart, but his expression was very calm, and he took the initiative to ask.
Elder Fan Wen hung the wine gourd back on his waist and glanced around Lin Chen.
Lin Chen's heart trembled, and he felt as if everything in his body was going to be seen through by the eighth-grade master in front of him at this moment.
After a while, Elder Fan Wen's gaze suddenly shifted from Lin Chen, he reached out and stroked the white beard on his chin, and said calmly, "Tell me, how did your strength improve?"
Lin Chen's tense spirit did not relax at this moment, he knew that if he made up other lies, he would definitely not be able to hide from the strong man in front of him, so he simply told the story of entering the Demon Gathering Valley and entering the ancient ruins that day.
Of course, in this process, he didn't say anything about the crescent moon and the blood demon, but only said that he was chased by the demon beast, and he had to break into the depths of the demon valley, and accidentally stumbled into the ruins, and also described the scene inside the ruins.
Moreover, the corpse of the elder of the Forestry Sect did not say, only that a lot of pills and treasures were found from many corpses in the ruins.
He depicted a very vivid image, completely different from hearsay, only people who have experienced it can tell such a real scene, as long as they have been to the cultivators in the depths of the Demon Gathering Valley, they will believe that Xiao Hong has also been.
Elder Fan Wen's face on the side kept changing, sometimes surprised, sometimes puzzled, sometimes frowned.
In the end, his mouth opened slightly, and he said a little incredulously: "You mean, you went deep into the Demon Gathering Valley in the four-rank realm, and not only did you not die in the end, but you also got an adventure." ”
"Well, that's it, how dare I lie to the elders, I went in as a guild member at the time, and you know, going there to get a quest pays more than anyone in the sect. Lin Chen smiled a little embarrassedly.
Seeing Elder Fan Fan's contemplative expression, Lin Chen continued to add fuel and vinegar and said, "At that time, I also saw the disciples and elders of my Shanshui Sect, as well as the people of the Forestry Sect, the Starry Sky Sect, and many eighth-order demon beasts.
The strength of that eighth-order demon beast is too terrifying, it actually tore apart an eighth-rank master, if I hadn't gotten some spirit runes on my body, I'm afraid I would really die there, it's hell!"
Elder Fan Wen's gaze suddenly looked at Lin Chen, and said, "I also went there at that time, and I also saw that ancient ruin, but unfortunately the treasures inside are of little use to the cultivators of the Eighth Grade, but you have obtained great benefits, those corpses are all left by the Eight Rank masters, and the pill treasures on their bodies are very useful to you." ”
"Well, I got a large number of Li Dan, and I practiced for a month, and then I improved my strength to the fifth grade. Lin Chen said.
"I checked for you just now, and your qualifications haven't changed much, but you have luck that ordinary cultivators don't have, and as long as you continue to cultivate, it's not impossible that you won't have achievements. ”
Elder Fan Wen nodded, he had already believed half of Lin Chen's words.
"If I have any adventures in the future and get any panacea, I will definitely honor your old man. Lin Chen's spirit finally relaxed a lot, and he smiled slightly at Elder Fan Wen.
"Your identity is innocent, but don't be too happy, Nanyun Sect and other dojos will not let you grow up smoothly, the battle among the disciples, to be honest, our elders can't control too much, this is also a part of the growth of cultivators, you can do it yourself in the future." But if you're competitive enough and have a way to fight them, I'll help you carry it if you get into trouble. After Elder Fan Wen finished speaking, his brows furrowed slightly.
Lin Chen was stunned in his heart, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and at the same time, he felt a little surprised, Elder Fan Wen was obviously telling himself that he would be his backer in the future. Lin Chen thought about it carefully, and probably understood the reason.
This Elder Fan Wen had also come out of Tianzhuang Pavilion before, and it was not easy to get to this point, and he had also suffered from the underestimation of other dojo disciples of that generation.
Therefore, he naturally hoped that another disciple in Tianzhuang Pavilion would rise and fight for him.
With Elder Fan Wen as his backer, Lin Chen would not have to be tied down to do many things in the future.
"Lin Chen, I'm going to teach you a second-order magic method now, the Imperial Object Technique, you have to remember it carefully, don't leak it out. Elder Fan Wen said, and a golden light bloomed on his right hand.
Lin Chen was taken aback in his heart, according to the sect's regulations, only cultivators of the seventh-rank realm were qualified to learn the second-order mystic method, and there were potential disciples who were particularly valued by the elders.
This Elder Fan Wen obviously regarded himself as a key cultivation target.
"Thank you, Elder. ”
Lin Chen's face showed a look of surprise, his eyes fell on the golden Dao book, and in an instant, a large amount of information poured into his mind, and he firmly remembered the magic of this imperial art.
The exercises in the world are divided into three, six, nine and so on, the first three become the wonderful method, the middle three are called the Xuan method, and the last three are called the immortal method.
For a sect like the Shanshui School, the mystical method is an existence that cannot be encountered, and even if it is a wonderful method, it is difficult for some ordinary disciples to obtain it.
The Imperial Technique that Lin Chen obtained required a lot of Dao power to be able to unleash, but as long as he learned it, he could exert incredible power and use Dao power to urge all kinds of things to attack the enemy, which could be regarded as a hidden killer weapon.
Elder Fan Wen also knew that Lin Chen's current situation was very bad, and if he didn't learn a few more life-saving methods, he was afraid that he would die halfway, which was not what he wanted to see.
