Chapter 174: Alchemy
The woman's eyes swirled around Xiao Jiu, and she said lukewarmly:
"I heard that it's not bad for you to give the second elder a hand in refining the array, and I also need a hand, but I'm refining the pill, you should familiarize yourself with the Danfang first."
As he spoke, he threw a jade slip at Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Jiu looked at the figure in front of him with a one-sided relationship, and was silent in his heart, and after taking the jade slip, he saluted and said, "Elder Xie Si cultivates!" ”
Hearing this, a light flashed in Qingying Zhenjun's eyes, and then he went to work on his own.
Five years later, there was a loud "bang" in the secret room of Qingying Zhenjun's cave mansion, and then black smoke filled the air.
It took a long time for two figures to be revealed.
A whole body is embarrassed and black, and a clean and elegant posture!
Elder Qingying glared at Xiao Jiudao angrily:
"You've learned that Lan Ying's kung fu at home, and you haven't even forgotten to set up a few exquisite cleaning formations on your robes!
But can you not show your 10,000-year-old cat-like expression at this moment, you should panic when you see this! ”
So, Xiao Jiu, who could hear the words, showed a bright smile without hesitation, and in this secret room full of black and swarthy, it looked even more dazzling.
He also said: "The image of the four elders is called the image of the hard worker, and it is an image worthy of praise and respect, which is something that the disciple can't compare." ”
Seeing that Qingyun Zhenjun's eyes were about to erupt into flames, he hurriedly extinguished the fire again and said:
"There is a saying that 'if the elder has something, the disciple will obey it', if the four elders can still see the disciple's skill, the disciple will be happy to serve you!"
"Flim Flam! How come I haven't heard of that phrase 'there is a way'! ”
Qingying Zhenjun said, with a wave of his big sleeves, the magic of great power swept through the secret room, and the secret room suddenly returned to its original light and neatness.
At this time, Qingying Zhenjun picked up the jade slip that had been put aside before and looked at it, and said with a somewhat depressed face: "This pill for the Infant Pill is not wrong, why did it fail again?" ”
In the past few years, although Xiao Jiu has not directly alchemized, he has also had a systematic understanding of alchemy:
Alchemy does not mean that if you can refine the pill according to the pills left by your predecessors, you can be called an alchemist.
A real alchemy master has a deep understanding of the pharmacological changes of the elixir, and can formulate a suitable pill for the effect of his own needs through the pharmacological changes.
But the difficulty is also in the understanding of pharmacology.
The four elders said: The way of alchemy is the most subtle and profound, it can refine one elixir with vitality into another elixir that can be used by monks.
Therefore, understanding the pharmacology of elixir interactions is the foundation.
According to legend, the highest level of understanding pharmacology is to be able to capture the power of the Tao and rules contained in the spiritual medicine because it grows in this world.
And can extract the power of the Tao and rules for their own use.
It's just that that's just a distant delusion of an alchemist!
Such a realm did not leave a record of what an alchemist could achieve ten thousand years ago.
And after the Great War 10,000 years ago, the cultivation realm declined, and the alchemist's alchemy technique also declined, and now it is difficult to even create his own pill formula, let alone spy on the ideal realm of that side.
Shengying Pill is a kind of pill that has been handed down from ancient times.
It is an elixir that can directly elevate the cultivation of the late Jindan monks to the cultivation of the Yuan Infant stage.
Such an effect can be said to be shocking.
Because when the monk is in the Qi refining period and the foundation building period, the improvement of cultivation is mainly completed by the accumulation of spiritual power. Of course, monks who have an understanding of the practice will go further.
However, during the Jindan period and the Yuan Infant period, the improvement of cultivation was mainly completed by the perception of one's own cultivation path.
Therefore, even if the Ziwei Sect has tens of thousands of Jindan disciples, those who can be promoted to the Yuan Infant Stage are also one in a thousand.
Ninety out of nine disciples will be stuck on the three hurdles of the Jindan period, and their cultivation will no longer be able to advance an inch, and they will eventually fall into the path or end their longevity.
The Infant Pill is able to fill the Taoist rules that the monks in the later stage of the Jindan did not comprehend, so that they can directly marry babies.
Moreover, after marrying a baby, although the path is more difficult than that of a normal monk, it is not completely impossible to further cultivate.
As long as you can truly find the Tao in your heart and abandon those rules that you don't need, it is also possible to advance to the late Yuan Infant stage.
There is also a case recorded in the Zangjing Pavilion of the sect, saying that in ancient times, there was a monk who married a baby through the Ascending Pill, and he cultivated until he ascended to the upper realm without being blocked from the path.
It also shows that if there is a Rising Pill, the vast majority of the late Jindan monks who have no possibility of promotion at all can get married, and they can use the longer longevity they have to explore their own path.
Therefore, the preciousness of the baby pill can be imagined.
In ancient times, the Ascending Pill was usually used in conjunction with the Purifying Pill.
Because the monks who have passed the Infant Ascending Pill to marry a baby have to pass the Heart Demon Tribulation and the Thunder Tribulation, and the high-quality Purification Pill is the best auxiliary pill to survive this Heart Demon Tribulation.
And the average infant monk, as long as they survive the Heart Demon Tribulation, with the assistance of the sect, there is a great chance that they can survive the Thunder Tribulation.
Therefore, in ancient times, the high-quality purification pill was a rare pill second only to the Shengying pill.
It's just that after the Great War, the Ascending Infant Pill can no longer be refined, and the value of the Purification Pill has also decreased, turning into a dispensable pill.
And the Ziwei Sect, as a sect that has been inherited for an unknown amount of time, and has been the overlord of the Five Elements Xinlu for ten thousand years, not only has it retained the Dan Fang of the Ascending Infant Pill, but also retained a Ascending Infant Pill of good quality.
This pill was kept in the hands of the four elders.
In the past few years, in addition to explaining the key to pharmacology and alchemy to her in the first two years, and asking her to sort out the elixir, the four elders have been constantly pondering this Infant Pill for the next three years.
That's a lot of defeat!
Of course, with such a profound elixir refining, Xiao Jiu's cultivation could not participate in it at all.
She was just immersed in the large amount of alchemy jade slips given by the four elders every day, and realized the changes in the elixir in the process of refining the elixir by the four elders.
Looking at the four elders' somewhat depressed expressions, she comforted:
"As long as the kung fu is deep, the iron pestle is sharpened into a needle! With such a difficult elixir, with your talent and ability, maybe it will take you a few hundred years to solve this puzzle that can't be solved for 10,000 years! ”
"Hundreds of years? Can we talk about it for hundreds of years? Saying that, he waved his hand to Xiao Jiu impatiently and said, "You should go elsewhere, don't bother me in front of my eyes!" ”
As soon as the words fell, a teleportation force came, and there was only one voice left in the secret room echoing: "The disciple also said that he would make a robe for the four elders."
Qingying Zhenjun shook his head twice, and then continued to study the Ascending Infant Pill
Ten years later, Xiao Jiu finally left the Second Elder's Cave Mansion, drove the flying boat, and headed in the direction of his Cave Mansion with a pensive face.
Even when he passed through the square of the head of the palace, he met Xuan Shasha who was surrounded by everyone, and he didn't react under Xuan Shasha's hateful eyes.
All of a sudden, he staggered.
Xuan Shasha turned around and asked the female cultivator next to her, "What's wrong with this foundation-building disciple named Wang Jiu?" (To be continued.) )
