Chapter 146: Alchemy Assistant
What is mind cultivation?
There are many opinions, and different people have different opinions.
For ordinary people, it is basically to establish a correct and positive three views, not to bully the weak, to have a firm heart, to be unswerving, to be mighty and unyielding, to be a self-respecting, self-reliant, self-loving, self-reliant person.
In the previous life, Chishui was like this, and in this life, it is simpler and stricter.
The reason why it is simple is because for monks, the cultivation of the mind can explain everything in just four words—clear mind. Open the eyes of the heart, follow the voice of the heart, do what you approve, do not go against your heart, do not go against your will, and you will not breed demons.
As for the so-called strictness, all monks will understand that the slightest flaw in their state of mind will affect the monk's own cultivation, and in serious cases, it will even plummet the realm, and the demons in their hearts will back, and they will fall into the dark abyss, and I am afraid that even reincarnation will become a luxury.
Of course, this is only for the righteous monks.
Think about those evil demon cultivators, do whatever they want, and harvest countless innocent lives in a snap of their fingers, all of them are bloodstained on their hands, but why don't they have the trouble of demons?
In fact, tracing the root cause is just a difference in heart.
Those evil demon cultivators have grown up in an environment where the weak eat the strong and there is no restraint of etiquette and religion, just imagine, they don't think that killing people is anything in their hearts, let alone have feelings of guilt and anxiety.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that those demons are still taking advantage of them, but in fact, they are not.
It is precisely because the righteous monks have the lineage of etiquette that the monks have the idea of cultivating the mind.
Chishui understands even more that people should do something and not do something, and monks are even more so. Obeying one's heart is nothing more than a code of conduct for monks to follow after determining their own outlook on life, and it is only clear and steadfast in their hearts to resist all temptations from the outside world. Only then can we go high and go far on this tortuous road.
She hurried back to the Jade Pavilion with an irrepressible smile on her face.
She knew in her heart what she had said in front of Baili's predecessors. It's just a superficial explanation of how to cultivate the mind from another angle, although it is not wrong, but it is also different from the current popular view, and it is only a little bit of her personal feelings.
Of course, it can make this senior who has cultivated to a high level unable to argue for a while, and Chi Shui also feels a sense of accomplishment.
It's a long road. Rugged and dangerous, how simple is it to eat a silver silk fruit?
She once again reminded herself that no matter when and what happens, she must take it as seriously as eating silver silk fruit, move forward steadfastly, and never take it lightly, just because she still has unfulfilled wishes.
She was determined. After slowly calming down his slightly excited mind, he waved his hand and laid an enchantment in the room to prevent others from disturbing, and sacrificed the white jade dragon tripod recognized by the predecessors of Baili that day.
According to Baili seniors. This white jade dragon tripod ranked seventh in this world, and it was a high-quality product that alchemists dreamed of, although Chi Shui had not seen other alchemy furnaces on the list, but she knew that this ding was much higher quality than the alchemy furnace she had before.
At that time, she thought that the alchemy record was a surprise, and then she got the treasure plate and this white jade dragon tripod, which suddenly gave her the illusion of becoming a nouveau riche.
Who would have thought that a mere casual cultivator would have such capital, and these few things, even if they were placed in the hands of the Suhe family, they would be treasures at the bottom of the box. is held by the monk in power, even if it is the senior sister tomorrow, it is estimated that it may not be able to be seen.
She sighed as she soothed the white dragon's head that was barking at her teeth.
Speaking of which, I don't know if she didn't see the difference between this white jade dragon tripod at the beginning, and she was disliked by this white dragon. Not to mention that she was bitten hard by it when she dripped blood to recognize the lord before, and finally broke free, and now every time she summons it out, it is a roar and roar, which makes her extremely helpless.
Listening to what Baili's predecessors said, not all monks can become the master of the White Jade Dragon Ding, and before it recognized the master, it was really just an ornament.
In the cultivation world, there are a lot of decorations in this shape, and there are many monks who buy them.
It's all indefinite.
Thinking of this, Chi Shui couldn't help but feel complacent that she could be recognized by her, although she still hadn't figured out whether this white dragon was sealed by the real dragon? Or is it a spiritual creature produced by the tripod itself?
It is said that this problem is an insoluble mystery of this white jade dragon tripod, and it can only be known if the owner communicates with it.
However, she has yet to do so.
The dragon seemed to be extremely unkind to her, and refused to communicate with her effectively, and occasionally saw her study the alchemy record, and a pair of ink eyes would throw a contemptuous look, which was quite speechless.
Chi Shui ignored it either, and only concentrated on studying one of the pills recorded in it, the Invisible Qi Concealment Pill.
Don't look at the name of this pill is ordinary, but it is the most effective hidden pill that has been popular since ancient times, and it has passed the test of countless monks from ancient times to the present, which can be described as thunderous.
The reason why Chi Shui fell in love with it at a glance was because he thought of the previous siege in the Xingguan Immortal Mansion. At that time, because of the pre-setting of the Immortal Monarch, that space could only accommodate the Void Cultivators, which allowed her to fight for a glimmer of life under the siege of many monks, but what if it was in the outside world?
There is no restriction of space, not to mention being surrounded by all cultivators, even if she is pursued by a great power of the first phase of the first period, she may not be able to escape the opponent, it is not that she is arrogant, but it is actually the order of the cultivation realm, and the gap in a big realm is enough to make people ignore everything else.
She knew that Blood Shadow could help her change her shape, but it wasn't enough.
She also needed a treasure that could perfectly conceal her figure.
Originally, the folding space of the magic circle she studied before could do this, but first, it took a long time to arrange the magic circle, and on the other hand, the space of the magic circle was limited and could not be moved, so it was good if it was not discovered by others, otherwise, it would fall into a passive situation and be irretrievable.
Of course, such treasures are very rare in circulation, and the price is extremely expensive, Chishui has walked in this world for many years, and has never encountered a satisfactory one, which can be seen.
And this Dan Fang can be described as another surprise for her.
The Invisible Qi Concealment Pill can completely hide the monk from the main body to the breath, not only the divine consciousness of the monk during the Tribulation Period cannot be detected, but even the magic cannot hurt a bit, this effect. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an anti-heaven elixir.
Think about it, if she takes it and floats past Immortal Venerable, the other party won't notice. Just imagining it is exciting, although the inferior Invisible Qi Pill can only hide the time of ten breaths, but thinking about their current speed and energy, ten breaths, there are too many things that can be done.
Depending on the quality, the length of time that can be concealed is also different, according to the records. The medium-grade Invisible Qi Concealment Pill can be concealed for one day, while the high-grade can be extended to half a month, as for the best Invisible Qi Concealment Pill, there is no record.
Naturally, such a spiritual elixir requires a lot of spiritual materials, and there are two main spiritual materials, the thousand-year-old phantom grass and the thousand-year-old assimilation wood, which have long been extinct in the cultivation realm.
Chi Shui didn't have much hope, but she couldn't stand the many treasures on the spirit platform of Baili Immortal Venerable, so she just swept it at a glance. They have already been found, not to mention the thousand-year-old ones, there are two of them. Definitely not less than 10,000 years, she swears.
Well, she admitted, she was deeply jealous compared to her bare altar.
Now that there is, things will be easy to do.
Chi Shui didn't want to hide it, she directly found Baili's predecessor at that time, anyway, her life is still in the other party's hands now! If she has a lot of debts, she doesn't have to worry, she asks for spiritual materials, and there is no pressure.
Of course. The end result is ideal.
She contributed all the pills in the alchemy record in exchange for twenty spiritual materials that could refine the Invisible Qi Pill.
Don't look at twenty copies that sounds like a lot, and when the final product is finished, it is already lucky to be able to successfully get nine pieces in three furnaces.
While Chi Shui was studying the Dan Fang, he was also curious about the alchemy attainments of Baili's predecessors.
It is said that the pill is not separated, but Chishui, who is suffering from it now, understands the difference.
Cinnabar. It is mainly used to help monks in their practice, and most of them are beneficial to monks and exist in the form of beads. Medicine, on the other hand, is indefinite in form, difficult for people to detect, and the medicinal properties are even more varied and more difficult to figure out.
The most important point is that Dan techniques have a very large and long heritage, and can be divided into countless different genres, Xiuzhenfang City can be seen everywhere in the alchemy basic introduction books and jade slips, and the inheritance of medicinal techniques is just the opposite, the inheritance is very secret, if there is no pharmaceutical predecessors, ordinary monks do not want to get a glimpse of one or two.
And Baili's predecessor is obviously a master of alchemy and medicine.
As for how high, uh, she's something to look up to anyway.
It was inappropriate to say more, Chi Shui put down the alchemy record, transported out the spiritual materials, and then beckoned to the white jade dragon ding.
Because he had many experiences and knew that Chishui was very serious now, the white dragon had to reluctantly fly to Chishui's side.
Chi Shui ignored it, held one of them up, and extracted spiritual power to inject it into it.
I saw that the white jade dragon tripod rose extremely quickly to the size of a disc and floated in the air.
With a flick of Chishui's fingers, a light cyan nearly transparent Dan Fire reached the bottom of the White Jade Transformation Dragon Ding, although it had been experienced dozens of times, the White Jade Transformation Dragon Ding still trembled lightly before it calmed down.
While controlling the size of the Danhuo, Chi Shui carefully observed the White Jade Transformation Dragon Ding.
She's warming up.
Because the White Jade Dragon Ding was flawless and connected to her divine sense, she could easily observe the inside and outside of the White Jade Dragon Ding
The subtle changes, especially the red hidden line that rose from the tail in the body of the white dragon on the ding, kept climbing up as the temperature of the Dan Huo increased, and soon reached the height of its hind-abdominal feet.
She turned her eyes to the white dragon.
The white dragon was a little professional, and when he saw this head move quickly to the side, the lid flew up.
Chi Shuiyan quickly followed the order recorded by the Dan Fang, put the auxiliary materials that had been processed in advance into the Ding one by one, and adjusted the size of the Dan Huo according to the facts.
This is a very delicate and tedious job.
Because her Dan Fire had devoured the Earth Fire, it was much more powerful than other monks, and the subtle control was extremely consuming of divine sense, and if she was not careful, others would only reduce the quality of the Spirit Pill, and when she came here, the spiritual materials would be completely destroyed.
Just like now!
Chi Shui frowned, looking at the thick smoke rising from the ding, the pungent smell came to her nose, accompanied by Bai Long's increasingly contemptuous little eyes, needless to say that she knew that this pot of spiritual materials was wasted.
She is a little helpless, the firepower is an advantage, but there are also many disadvantages, fortunately, this time the main material has not been put in, and the loss is not too big.
She glanced at the white dragon, silently cleaned up the discarded medicine residue, and reheated it.
In the situation just now, it was clear that the dragon could warn her in advance, but it didn't, but the red water skills were not as good as people, and it was a little unreasonable to even question it.
The white dragon twisted his head slightly, looking at the sky and the earth with his ink eyes, but he didn't look at Chishui, quite calm.
Chi Shui snorted lightly, ignored it, and started a new round of refining more seriously.
As the spiritual materials were thrown into the ding one by one, bursts of medicinal incense rose and filled the entire room.
The white dragon was in a state of flux at this time, and a pair of ink eyes stared intently at the inside of the ding, which was amazingly bright.
Suddenly, it took a big mouthful, sucked hard, and all the medicinal incense that overflowed outside the ding fell into its mouth, and then it blew at the ding.
In an instant, the residue of the spiritual material in the ding was swept up by the wind, flying out of the dingwaizhang and falling outside.
The white dragon looked at Chishui triumphantly.
Chi Shui praised it without hesitation, seeing that the medicinal liquid refined by the auxiliary materials in Dingzhong had fused, and the time had come, he sucked the Phantom Grass and threw himself into it.
The medicinal liquid in the ding quickly faded to the side, making room for the Phantom Grass.
The phantom grass melted into the inside, and in an instant, it turned into a transparent mass.
Chishui immediately threw into the assimilation wood.
Almost at the same time, the lid of the tripod fell, and the white dragon's chin buckled on it, completely sealing the tripod.
The spiritual power in the ding is great, and the medicinal liquid and the things refined by the phantom grass all fly up, rotating rapidly around the Tonghua wood, if you look closely, you will find that the liquid medicine and the transparent thing slowly seeped into the assimilation wood with the process of rotation, and the assimilation wood also softened with the temperature in the ding.
The white dragon's claws clenched the slightly trembling Ding, rising and falling slightly on the Dan fire.
Chishui controlled the Danhuo, and his heart was slightly happy.
Although this white dragon does not want to see her, it is a rare alchemy assistant, the reason why she decided to refine it herself, instead of being afraid of wasting spiritual materials and asking for help from Baili seniors, is because of this Ding furnace, it can be said that the white dragon makes up for a lot of her unskilled as a novice.
Naturally, she can't rely on this white dragon for everything.
What she wants to cultivate and master is what alchemists often call the Dan sense. What kind of fire enters the spiritual materials, the method of removing the residue, the movement of the spiritual liquid in the ding, the time of opening the ding, and the method of taking the pill, these are all very particular, and even the refining methods are different.
In short, she still has a lot to learn, and this white dragon has saved her a lot of detours, and learning alchemy is even more effective with half the effort, and the results since these days are gratifying.
"Sneer—" I didn't pay attention, and I failed again.
Chi Shui was a little annoyed, she fell short at the moment before taking the pill, but fortunately, she was not discouraged, adjusted her mood, and quickly threw herself into it again.
Then it failed several times.
Chi Shui cleared all the distracting thoughts, her expression was extremely focused, I don't know how long it took, her eyes flashed, she flew up, the jade box opened, and the three elixirs that flew out from inside the ding, swept them at a glance, all of them were inferior.
Even so, her face was still filled with a touch of joy that could not be concealed, these three Invisible Qi Pills were round and transparent, and there was no aura and fragrance overflowing, like three glass beads the size of longan, although it looked ordinary, Chi Shui did not doubt its effectiveness at all.
She carefully affixed the jade box with a special seal, put it into the ring, and looked down at her hands again.
I have to say that knowing that I am making progress every day, even if it is only a little bit, makes people involuntarily happy, that kind of indescribable satisfaction, others can't give, only yourself!
She seemed to have an understanding in her heart...... (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (QID to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation.) )
