Red flames crackled, and a faint green smoke filled the roof of the furnace.

There was a ten-year-old fat man sitting next to the Dan stove, with a pair of black-framed glasses on his face, shaking the fan for a while, and sometimes popping out a little black flame on his fingers, and at this time the fire turned inky again.

Alchemy is not allowed to use ordinary flames, firewood fire can only be used for cooking and heating, if it is used to refine the spiritual objects between heaven and earth, waste tens of thousands of years and don't think about it. You can't use the Taoist three-flavor true fire, unless you plan to burn even the stove, the treasures of heaven and earth are not easy to come by, how can there be a fool who is willing to storm the heavens.

Alchemy uses the fire of chaos, the flame that gives birth to all things in heaven and earth, which can not only refine all things in heaven and earth, but also ensure that the aura is not lost. What the fat shot out was the Chaos Fire, which was the flame that alchemists dream of, and it was also because of this that he was able to get the favor of his master. Otherwise, with his virtue, it would be difficult to say anything into the eyes of the cold-faced Dan King.

Although the alchemist is also a monk, he does not value the magic weapon, and searches for famous mountains and rivers, ancient beasts, goblins and ghosts, strange flowers and plants, all of which cannot be used for alchemy.

This is a profession with a bright future, and when you first enter the Dao, your ability is a little weaker, and you can cooperate with other cultivators to cheat and cheat. Once out of the school, it is to eat fragrant and drink spicy, walking on the road, there will be cultivators jumping from the top of the tree to climb friendship, and the major cultivation families have always spared no effort to recruit alchemists.

It's no wonder that the surname of fire is extremely rare in the crowd, and the people who control the fire of chaos are even rarer, and the so-called strange goods can live. Up to now, alchemists are almost extinct in the land of China, is that not a fragrant bait that everyone loves, and flowers bloom?

But the fat man didn't think too much, his name was Wang Hao, and when he watched a legend of Sword and Fairy, he went crazy and ran into the Taoist temple to apprentice. happened to meet the cold-faced Dan King who was hiding quietly in the Taoist temple, and learned that his surname was Huo, and it was the Fire of Chaos, so he took him under his door without saying a word.

Time is like an arrow, ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Wang Hao, who is dedicated to seeking Taoism, has been a volunteer boiler worker for ten years, and he is inevitably a little unhappy in his heart, but considering the original intention of becoming an immortal, he still stays after all.

"Edgeworth rides the wind and destroys the demons between heaven and earth." It turns out that the bridges on TV are all deceptive, Xiuzhen is to burn the boiler, what flying swords, magic weapons are all floating clouds! I fan! I fan!

"What? You call me Yin Refining Pill? Get out! "Suddenly there was a master's angry rebuke outside the door, King Dan's stinky temper is more famous than Danshu, I don't know which unlucky guy touched the nail?

Obediently, I have seen a lot of people who come to the master to ask for Dan, but it is the first time I have met Yin Dan. There is nothing mysterious in saying it, everything is divided into yin and yang, and Dan is no exception. People usually say that all the Dan is Yang Dan, whether it is a god, a human, or a demon, you can enjoy it, but Yin Dan is refined for the dead, and the energy will gradually dissipate after death, and if you lose your body, you will not be able to gather aura, and it will disappear after a long time. If there is a Yin Dan, it will be different, not only can the deceased escape the doom of disappearing, but also the possibility of cultivating into ghosts and immortals, if you can get a few materials in the legend, it is not delusional to reshape the body, as for what materials in the legend are not mentioned, it is a floating cloud, a floating cloud.

Yin refining pill is a big taboo! It is equivalent to the forbidden technique of the cultivation realm, and the arrogance of the cold-faced Dan King categorically refuses to help. You must know how many Xuanmen masters have asked him for Dan in vain. Now that he is asked to alchemy for the dead to enjoy, isn't this angry?

Cultivators do not pay attention to the equality of all beings, and they divide the ranks very clearly, and the six realms are in the order of hell path, evil ghost path, animal path, asura path, humanity, and heavenly path, and the status of ghosts in the master's heart is not as good as that of animals.

Who would be so bold as to poke a hornet's nest? This time there is a lively look, out of curiosity Wang Hao put down the fan, moved on tiptoe, through the crack in the door, you can see a man in simple clothes, magnificent, but there is a melancholy that is difficult to hide. He doesn't seem to be good at begging, and he is always silent, but he is not willing to leave.

However, the master was furious and scolded endlessly, which just made Wang Hao hear the whole story.

It turned out that the middle-aged man was actually an elder of the Star Moon Sect, and his name was Chen Xuan. With his cultivation, he could have attained the Tao and ascended, but he was willing to stay in the human world for the sake of his deceased wife, just to be able to stay with his wife. The materials for refining Yin Dan have long been available, but now it is just a matter of finding someone to use the knife, and such trivial matters are completely a matter of effort for King Dan. In fact, you don't even need to lift your hands, you can just move your mouth, and the Yin Dan can be refined by Wang Hao.

After receiving the apprentices, the old guy washed his hands in a golden basin and concentrated on cultivation, and all the alchemy matters were handed over to the apprentices to do it for him, probably because he didn't need to burn the fire for alchemy, he was in a happy mood, and even his temper changed a lot.

Even refusing to help like this is too unkind.

For the next three days, Chen Xuan remained unyieldingly outside the hut, rain or shine. One step away from Jindan Avenue but stopped, only envy the mandarin duck and not the immortal, what a person with a surname! Unlike some people, they don't see any progress in their cultivation in their lifetime, but they have lost their human flavor, just like a master.

If he begged for a dead face, Wang Hao would definitely look down on him, and there were many people who came to ask for Dan, many of whom were sent away by Wang Hao.

But that pair of iron bones and infatuation with his wife are touching, Rao is Wang Hao has long been trained into a pair of iron and stone, and still decided to help him once, but refining a Yin Dan, how can it stump the high feet of King Dan?

When night falls, the moon is bright and the stars are scarce.

The bloated body crept out of the doorway, half-hiding behind the house and booing, looking a little funny.

"Well, you've come to ask my master for alchemy, right? Although my master has been a lot more generous in the past two years, the Yin Refining Pill will definitely not be done, and you are just wasting your time staying here. ”

"I know that refining the Yin Pill is a taboo for alchemists, but if the deceased wife doesn't have the Xuanyin Pill, it won't take half a year to scatter, and Chen Xuan has no choice." Looking at the world today, there is only the King of Cold Noodles Dan who can refine the Yin Pill, and giving up is tantamount to letting his wife disappear, even if it is difficult, he must persevere.

Wang Hao had long expected that he would not give up, and pretended to sigh and said, "Master can't refine the Yin Pill, so let me help you." ”

Who would believe that a child in his twenties knows alchemy? But after all, this was the only hope, Chen Xuan asked suspiciously, "Can you really refine the Yin Pill?" Refining the Yin Pill requires the Fire of Xuanyin, preferably the Fire of Chaos, but ordinary methods will not work. ”

Wang Hao was full of confidence, patted his chest and said, "Hehe, I'm afraid that I will destroy your materials, right?" Don't worry, I've been refining Dan for Master for ten years, and making that kind of thing is a piece of cake. It's rare for me to want to do something good, or not to you. ”

Chen Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "The little brother is grateful for being willing to help, how can there be a reason that he can't believe it?" With just a few materials, even if they fail and are destroyed, Chen Xuan can find them again in a short period of time. The big hand immediately flipped over, and the three materials for refining the Yin Pill appeared in the palm of his hand.

The dark green glow is the corpse king's mouth, which is actually the body fluids dripping from the thousand-year-old zombies, this kind of thing needs to be good enough, and the classic records that the thousand-year-old zombie body fluids are light green, and the micro-ribbons are transparent; It took more than 2,000 years to show a little green; The dark green should be at least an old corpse of more than three thousand years, and it is worthy of the name of the corpse king, that kind of guy is not easy to deal with!

Then there's the grimace mushroom, which, as the name suggests, is a mushroom that looks like a grimace. Brown, exuding a thick fishy smell, the appearance is close to the grimace for the top grade, and the more hideous the expression, the more precious.

The rarest is the blood of a thousand-year-old eel, a drop of red jumping in the palm of the hand, now it is difficult to find a wild eel, and the thousand-year-old eel is more rare than the virgin of the art school. The materials Chen Xuan found for his wife were all superb, and he would never cut corners.

Wang Hao has been accustomed to seeing the world with his master over the years, and he is not so surprised, but he is surprised by his way of conjuring materials. Immortal law? Magic? After all, he is a young man's surname, and he doesn't have much interest in alchemy in his bones, but he likes all kinds of strange spells and magic weapons, and he can't help but ask for advice.

Chen Xuan couldn't help laughing heartily, and immediately took off the ring on his index finger. "It's not a spell, it's just a storage ring, little brother likes to take it."

Low-level cultivators usually use the Hundred Treasure Bag to carry things, and the garbage is small in capacity and inconvenient to carry. The children of large families occasionally use storage bracelets, and the ring is more precious. Although it is not a rare thing, it is an indispensable item for going out and training.

In addition, the storage ring also has a special function, highlighting the identity, just like the famous watch on the man's wrist, which is mainly brought out for others to see, so the quality should naturally be divided into three, six, nine and so on. Observe the gems inlaid on the ring surface to make identification, the lowest grade is red, but also divided into dark red, vermilion, bright red, bright color for the top grade. Then there is yellow, green, and most precious is the blue gemstone ring, which is not only large in capacity, but also very beautiful in color. Chen Xuan's ring is blue, and it is still the blue of the starry sky, crystal clear like crystal, and there is no trace of impurities.

"The name of this ring is Star Blue." Chen Xuan smiled and explained the purpose to him, the method of use is very simple, and he can put in or take out items with his mind. Three layers of prohibitions have been added to the interior of Star Blue, mainly for the storage of valuables, in case of theft, others will not be able to take out the items inside.

Wang Hao can use it proficiently after trying it a few times, this is his first magic weapon, and he naturally can't put it down. After burning the boiler for ten years, he didn't know anything about Taoism, let alone seeing magic weapons, he suddenly felt like a farmer.

"As the saying goes, the husband is innocent, but he is guilty, don't show off everywhere, so as not to cause trouble." Chen Xuan put it on his finger for him and kindly reminded him.

"While Master is meditating now, let's hurry up and make alchemy." Wang Hao finally came back to his senses, this kind of thing should be done secretly, of course, the sooner it ends, the better.

"You're doing alchemy here?! Don't need a Dan furnace? Seeing that the fat man stroked his arms and rolled up his sleeves, it was clear that he wanted to solve it on the spot, Chen Xuan showed a surprised expression.

"Actually, you don't need a furnace to do alchemy." Wang Hao spread out his right palm, and the inky flames beat in the palm of his hand, like the dance of a night elf, bewitching and beautiful.

Chaos Fire! This hand alone is impressive. Looking at his movements, it is clear that he wants to refine the pill in the palm of his hand, the fire is born from the heart, and the palm is used as the furnace, even if the Dan King personally makes a move, it is nothing more than that. Chen Xuan was no longer worried about his ability, but he was worried about his situation, although he was eager to get a Xuanyin Pill for his wife, he couldn't do the act of deceiving the child.

"Little brother, cultivating the Yin Pill is a forbidden technique, not to mention that you hide from your master to help me, if you are discovered, you will definitely be punished, you should think about it first."

"What is there to consider? provoked me to scatter in two, and I didn't bother to help him burn the Dan furnace! ”

As he spoke, Wang Hao threw the corpse king into the fire, and the dark green viscous liquid kept changing shape, and at the same time released bursts of foul odor until it was completely vaporized. The green gas drifted uncertainly, but it did not disperse, and it was like a cloud in the palm of the hand.

As if sensing the danger coming, the grimace mushroom let out a terrible wail before entering the fire, and its expression kept changing, more hideous and terrifying than before, to be precise, it was intimidation.

Alchemy, alchemy, is actually demon refining. Plants or animals that are more than 300 years old will become essence, so what is refined is called a pill instead of a medicine. Since he has a spiritual surname, he naturally refuses to wait for death obediently, and it is normal to resist. Wang Hao had long been accustomed to it, not only did his fat face look as usual, but the fire of chaos did not even shake a little. In Chen Xuan's eyes, he couldn't help but admire, he could have such determination at such a young age, and the future life was terrifying!

The grimace mushroom dissolves little by little, and it doesn't take much effort to turn into gas, but it still retains its hideous appearance and constantly threatens. Wang Hao sneered, an illusory Tai Chi pattern appeared on his palm, and the yin and yang fish spun at a rapid speed, stirring the grimace mushroom to pieces after a while.

Chen Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't imagine that a small grimace mushroom could make him panic, who let that be the hope of saving his wife?

Danshu is divided into two kinds: Inner Dan and Outer Dan, and cultivators without exception are cultivating Inner Dan, taking ** as the Ding, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth to give birth to the Golden Dan, and the Ding or Dan is just a metaphor for them. Therefore, cultivators are not good at alchemy, or they don't understand alchemy at all.

It is precisely because he doesn't understand that he will be upset, but Wang Hao's eyes are still reassuring. So far, there has been no panicked expression, as if everything is under control, and the alchemy technique is extremely fast, and the last drop of eel blood has been thrown into the fire in the blink of an eye.

At this time, the corpse king and the grimace mushroom vaporization have been fused, both of them are the surnames of the extreme yin, and they immediately launched a siege when they encountered the blood of the eel, and now it is the key to Hedan, Wang Hao guided carefully, and bean-sized sweat drops flowed from his bloated cheeks. The eel's blood seemed to be convulsing in pain, constantly changing shape, and its color changed from crimson to dark purple, until all the floating gas was absorbed, and it turned into a green and faint color, the size of a pigeon's egg, but it had no fixed shape, as if it was a hazy mist, extremely strange.

With Chen Xuan's knowledge, it is not difficult to see that the great work is done, it turns out that the legendary Xuanyin Pill turned out to be an invisible thing, and he was overjoyed to take the Yin Pill, and even his hands were trembling, as if it was his wife's life, in fact, it was.

Wang Hao wiped the sweat from his forehead and laughed at himself: "It turns out that I still have some use." "Alchemy consumes a lot of spiritual power, and the whole body is soft at the moment, it would be nice if I could find a place to lie down for a while.

"Little brother can't be presumptuous, how many people in the Xuanmen would rather scatter their wealth for a pill, even if they exchange it with a personal magic weapon. Flying away from the sky is majestic, but after a hundred years, it will not be a pile of dry bones? Walking Jindan Avenue is the right way. Chen Xuan was grateful and didn't say much, but he secretly swore in his heart that he would definitely find an opportunity to repay him in the future.

Although the magic weapon is difficult to find, it is Dan that people in Xuanmen cherish as much as life. Rare things are expensive, magic weapons can be refined by everyone, but the quality is different, the master stretches his legs and becomes an ownerless thing, and after a long time, he accumulates more and more, and naturally he does not feel precious. What's more, no matter how strong the magic weapon is, it is also majestic, after all, it is something outside the body, Dan is completely different, and it is more important than life for cultivators.

Neidan pays attention to the accumulation of time, step by step, and absorbs the aura of heaven and earth for his own use. Of course, this method is more elegant than burning fire and refining pills, but the disadvantage is that it is slow, especially now that there is a lack of spiritual energy, except for a few caves and blessed places that are suitable for cultivation, the environment in the city is even difficult to survive, let alone cultivate. The first threshold for cultivating is Yuanying, it takes three hundred years to cultivate under normal circumstances, and it must be cultivated day and night, if there is no adventure, it will be dead in less than a hundred years, and it is true that you still cultivate a fart?

There are no more than three kinds of adventures for cultivators, finding a blessed place with abundant spiritual energy, cultivating will naturally get twice the result with half the effort, and you can save thirty or fifty years of hard work, this kind of good thing basically does not need to be considered, there is something, nothing is nothing, and the good place has long been occupied by the gate sect.

The second is the magic weapon of the immortal family, which can absorb aura after refining, which is equivalent to portable cave heaven blessed land, and can also save decades of time, this does not have to be counted on, the reason is the same.

Historically, the ascenders have been the sons of powerful and well-educated families, and they have exhausted the financial and material resources of the entire sect, and they have only fulfilled one or two people. How many good things can be left behind even if you soar? How can it be enough for thousands of disciples in the sect to divide up? That is, those who are close can get some benefits, so those who are red-eyed will say that one person has attained the Tao, and the chicken and dog will ascend to heaven.

Most of the children of famous families have the above two kinds of blessings, but at most they can shorten the time by a hundred years, and the yuan baby is still an unattainable dream, how can people live to be two hundred years old? So all the hopes are pinned on the Dan, the Dan that promotes the true yuan, the Dan that prolongs life, and the cultivation of the Yuan Infant or the three-foot loess, it all depends on whether there is a Dan that continues to live.

You can find high-quality materials by yourself, or you can buy them with money, whether it is refining or alchemy, it is inseparable from a money word, so the Xiuzhen family is not like the legend to live in seclusion, but to do their best to collect money, only those who have a respected status are eligible to stay in the cave heaven blessed land for retreat.

After learning these truths, even Wang Hao sighed, Xiuzhen is not a game that poor people can play, where has he been alchemy all these years, it is clear that he is burning money.

Chen Xuan temporarily took out a bracelet and put it into the Yin Dan, and continued to explain: "It is a blessing for the little brother to be able to worship under the door of the King of the Cold Noodles Dan, just the ten years of Dan Furnace you burned will benefit you immensely, and others can't look forward to it!" Your current ability is already good, what you lack is only experience and heat, and you lack the materials for alchemy, just look for me. ”

There was a tiger roar in the Dan room while speaking, oh no! If you don't call it in the morning, you don't call it in the evening, but you have to mix it at this time, and then you have to be discovered by the master. After Chen Xuan's explanation just now, Wang Hao felt that it was good to stay in the burning pill, and he turned around and was about to rush to the pill room.

"Humph! Almost ruined my Dragon Tiger Pill. King Dan appeared at the door with an angry face on his face, and scolded: "After burning the fire for a few days, you will refine the pill privately, do you know the consequences of cultivating the Yin Pill?" ”

It's the first time I've seen an old guy get angry since I started, so it's not going to be pretended, right? Wang Hao was about to explain, but he heard the master sigh.

"The fate of you and my master and apprentice is over, pack up your things and go down the mountain."

"Master!" Except for the time when he was apprenticing, Wang Hao called the master for the first time. The old man usually didn't treat him very well, but at this moment, he suddenly made him sad.

"Needless to say! The Dragon Tiger Pill is refined by you, and you take it with you. As he spoke, a golden light fell on Wang Hao's palm, and the Dan was divided into red and black, and even if the two strong competed against each other, they could not be fused even if they were refined into Dan, and there seemed to be flowing clouds surging on the surface, and there was a vague momentum of swallowing heaven and earth.

I didn't have time to look closely before I heard the heavy sound of the door closing, and the master has always kept his word, and it is useless to ask for it. What's more, Wang Hao doesn't know what it means to ask for someone, and it is precisely for this reason that he has a good impression of Chen Xuan, and the so-called smell is similar.

When I was still a child, I brought a few clothes that I couldn't wear for a long time, but over the years, I used the leftovers to refine a lot of Danlai, that kind of thing the master is not eye-catching, it is better to take it down the mountain, the fat man returned to the room gloomily and began to clean up.

At this point, Chen Xuan didn't know what to say, apologized and comforted, he couldn't speak. After being silent for a long time, he suddenly took Wang Hao's hand and walked to the clearing at the edge of the forest. Three pointed to the sky, summoned a purple giant sword hanging in the air, and said arrogantly: "Little brother, if you don't dislike it, we will become brothers!" ”

"Bye! Forget it. Wang Hao is still self-aware, and he doesn't want to have a relationship with anyone.

"What! Do you look down on me? ”

"How can there be a reason to worship when Pingshui meets? You just think that you have caused me to be expelled from the sect, and you don't want to go away, so you have to make amends. I helped you to do alchemy completely out of your own volition, and it has nothing to do with you if you were expelled from the sect. In the blink of an eye, Wang Hao packed up his things, anyway, there is a star blue ring, just throw it indiscriminately.

Chen Xuan looked up to the sky and smiled.

"Well said! It's been cultivated for so long that even I've become cheesy. Little brother, you must have not been down the mountain for a long time, I think your surname is very simple, rare. ”

"Ten years." Wang Hao seems to be talking about numbers that have nothing to do with him, when other children enjoy a happy childhood, he guards the Dan furnace, and he doesn't even have a confidant playmate.

"A good man has ambitions in all directions, the world is big, where can he go? What's more, with your ability, you can already be a teacher, and it is a waste of time to rely here, there is a restaurant at the foot of the mountain, let's get drunk and rest! ”

After finishing speaking, he picked up Wang Hao and left.

It turns out that this world does have the ability to fly away, when the wind is whistling in the ears, the forest ravines, flying springs and waterfalls, blink under the feet, that feeling is like a dream.
