Xu Jinghuai and Ding Yang competed in Danshu. Su Xiangdi temporarily gave up his Tianzi first-class Dan room for Ding Yang's use.

Generally speaking, there are three points in the Danshu competition: first, the quality of the pill; second, the number of pills; Third, alchemy time.

To be fair, both sides need to have someone to oversee. Gao Zhixun said that he was willing to supervise Ding Yang's alchemy, but Xu Jinghuai objected on the grounds that he could not be trusted. Su Xiangdi stood up and asked, "I proposed the competition, why don't you let me supervise it?" ”

Xu Jinghuai replied: "Of course." ”

Gao Zhixun was extremely unhappy with Xu Jinghuai's suspicion of his character, and snorted coldly: "Then I will supervise you?" ”

"Nope." Xu Jinghuai decisively refused.

"Why?"

Although the second half of the sentence "In case you take advantage of my alchemy ......" was not spoken, the meaning was obvious.

"I didn't do that."

Xu Jinghuai raised his head, he just didn't agree anyway. He Lingxuan leaned over and asked, "I'm always okay, right?" ”

Xu Jinghuai looked at her and frowned: "Big beauty, it's been twice, can't you let me go?" ”

"Little man, are you so afraid of me?"

Xu Jinghuai sighed and said helplessly: "Okay!" ”

Gao Zhixun suddenly found that he had no sense of existence, and in order to save face, he proposed: "Just take one stick of incense as the limit, the lower grade is one point, the best is four points, and the total score will be counted at that time." ”

Xu Jinghuai sighed casually and walked into the Tianzi C-class Dan room. He Lingxuan took out a long incense stick and was about to light it, but heard Xu Jinghuai say, "Wait a minute." ”

He Lingxuan took the long incense and sniffed it, and said playfully: "What's wrong?" You want me to cheat for you? ”

"No, I mean you're lighting incense while I'm alchemizing."

He Lingxuan nodded, and then stretched out his index finger in front of Xu Jinghuai, and then a burst of Dan fire burst out between his fingers.

Xu Jinghuai was speechless, sitting cross-legged on the stone bed in the Dan room and thinking. He thinks that since Ding Yang can be with He Lingxuan and others, his Dan skills must not be bad. Although he can refine one top-grade and three top-grade, Ding Yang may have more. Therefore, if it is a regular competition, the chances of winning are very slim. Thinking about this, he thought that he had to use some unconventional means.

However, just as he was thinking about how to use it, he heard the sound of blowing air next to him. When I turned my head, I saw He Lingxuan puffing out her cheeks and blowing long incense hard.

Xu Jinghuai breathed a long sigh of relief, didn't say anything, and sacrificed the Xuantie Dan furnace to start alchemy. When He Lingxuan saw the Xuantie Dan Furnace, she seemed to understand Tian Jianshu's painstaking efforts. At that moment, a Dan fire was born and a long incense was burned.

Seeing this, Xu Jinghuai gritted his teeth and said coldly: "I admit defeat, are you satisfied?" ”

He Lingxuan jumped in front of him, stared into his eyes, and asked, "Angry?" ”

"Don't you think I shouldn't be angry? I trust you to oversee you, but what about you? Again and again, it was difficult. In that case, I admit defeat. ”

He Lingxuan put her hands behind her back and said as she walked: "Actually, you can't win at all." Although Ding Yang's Dan technique is worse than Gao Zhixun and Su Xiangdi, it is definitely stronger than you. Seeing Xu Jinghuai's disapproving look, he continued, "Don't believe it? Okay, then let me tell you, Ding Yang can refine three top-grade and one top-grade, can you? ”

"No, but I can still win him." Xu Jinghuai said confidently.

When He Lingxuan heard this, she took out a long incense stick and lit it again, and said with a smile: "How about we make a bet too?" ”

"Bet on what?"

"If you win, I'll give you a Xuan-rank pill. If you lose... How about serving me for two years? ”

"What's the Waiting Method?"

"Don't worry, I also have a bottom line. You just need to assist me in alchemy and go out with me once in a while. ”

"Okay, I'll take it."

"Okay, I'll go sleep for a while, and I'll see you after a stick of incense." He Lingxuan walked to the stone bed, a bright smile on the corner of her mouth.

Xu Jinghuai breathed a sigh of relief, and his mind quickly went through the process of the earth-based aura pill and began to refine the pill.

Before a stick of incense arrived, Ding Yang had already finished refining, and accompanied by Su Xiangdi, he went out of the Dan room. Gao Zhixun saw him with a confident look and asked, "Are you sure?" ”

Ding Yang didn't speak, but heard Su Xiangdi smile bitterly: "Don't talk about him, even you and I may not be able to win." ”

Gao Zhixun looked at Ding Yang curiously and asked, "Four superlatives?" ”

As soon as Ding Yang was about to answer, he saw Xu Jinghuai walking out alone, and his expression didn't seem to be very optimistic. Gao Zhixun asked, "What about Miss Lingxuan?" ”

"I'm still sleeping."

Gao Zhixun sighed, and was about to go in when he saw He Lingxuan yawning out. Asked, "Who won?" ”

Ding Yang stepped forward and said proudly: "No accident, it should be me who won." After speaking, he opened his palm, and suddenly the fragrance overflowed.

He Lingxuan looked at it and said in surprise: "Five superlative? ”

Su Xiangdi nodded and said, "This is already the limit of a furnace of earth-based spiritual qi pills, even a Xuan-rank first-grade pill master may not have this achievement." ”

After He Lingxuan heard this, she looked up at Xu Jinghuai and said with a smile: "Little man, two years." ”

Xu Jinghuai shrugged, looked at Gao Zhixun, and asked, "A superb is four points, and five is twenty points, right?" ”

"That's right."

"A top-grade is three points, right?" Xu Jinghuai asked again.

Gao Zhixun said impatiently: "It's all come to this point, do you need to ask anything else?" ”

"Yes."

"Okay, then I'll tell you right now, a top-grade is three points."

Xu Jinghuai nodded, slowly unfolded his palm, and there were eight earth-based spiritual qi pills on it. Su Xiangdi took the pill, took out a magic weapon and examined it, and confirmed: "It's just refined, but the eight are all top-grade." ”

After hearing this, Gao Zhixun said in disbelief: "This is impossible, the earth-based spiritual qi pill is limited by the material, and a maximum of five can be refined in one furnace." ”

Xu Jinghuai looked at him and asked rhetorically, "Can't I refine two furnaces?" ”

Su Xiangdi was stunned for a moment, then took out a jade plaque and said with a smile: "This is the Dan Fang of Dao Dan, I will give it to you." ”

Xu Jinghuai took the Danfang and corrected: "Although I am very grateful, this is what I won." ”

Su Xiangdi did not speak, but silently took out a piece of paper, on which was written the refining materials of Dao Dan. Xu Jinghuai understood what he meant, and arched his hand and said, "Thank you." ”

After that, he looked at He Lingxuan again. He Lingxuan walked around him and praised: "Little man, you are really smart enough." ”

"I'm ashamed, it's just a little clever."

He Lingxuan took out a Danfang jade plate and asked, "How about we gamble again?" ”

Xu Jinghuai took the Danfang and replied, "I'm not interested." Then he walked into the Tianzi C-grade Dan room.

Ding Yang sighed, he never imagined that he would lose like this. Su Xiangdi looked at him and comforted: "Brother Ding, it is very rare that you can refine five superlatives in one furnace. Since I proposed the competition, why don't you use my Dan room? ”

Ding Yang shook his head and walked towards the first-class Dan room. Although he lost unjustly, losing is losing. He Lingxuan and Su Xiangdi entered the Tianzi first-class Dan room, which was the task assigned by his father. As for Gao Zhixun, he was still stunned, and when he completely figured it out, he was left alone.

He ran to the Tianzi C-grade Dan room, and shouted according to the mechanism of the bell in the Dan room: "If you have a little bit of Dan master's self-esteem, you will admit that you have lost." ”

Xu Jinghuai heard the bell and felt irritable. He opened the stone door and saw that Gao Zhixun was an idiot again. At that moment, he said angrily: "If you dare to disturb me again, I will abolish you." ”

Gao Zhixun was frightened, and said a little timidly: "My father is a Xuan-level Dan Master. ”

"Then you can try." After saying that, he closed the stone door.

Gao Zhixun put his hand on the mechanism, snorted and walked into the Tianzi B-class Dan room.

At the end of the farce, Xu Jinghuai urged his divine sense to observe the Dan Fang of Dao Dan. What left him speechless was that his previous guess turned out to be wrong again.

The treatment method of the heart-eroding grass is not a simple nodule part, but first peels the nodules, then wraps them in crimson leaves, and finally refines them with Danhuo. The treatment of the bitter flower was the exact opposite of what he thought, and the stamens needed to be removed, leaving the leaves and petals. As for the silk lotus, it is even more puzzling to him, he only needs to keep the lotus root.

Xu Jinghuai rubbed his eyebrows and said to himself: "Aren't lotus silk and lotus root slices the same?" ”

In order to verify his idea, he did not draw the silk lotus, and the rest was exactly as shown by Danfang. Not long after, a furnace of elixir came out. Xu Jinghuai looked at the Dao Dan in his palm, two top-grade and one superb, and complained: "Isn't this the same as taking off your pants and farting?" ”

Xu Jinghuai accepted the pill, looked at the remaining materials, and decided to refine another furnace. However, this furnace was slapped in the face, and there were three superlatives. At this moment, Xu Jinghuai seemed to understand something. He walked out of the Dan room and went to find Ding Yang.

After Ding Yang saw him, he was startled, and said with a bitter face: "I let it out, what else do you want me to do?" ”

Xu Jinghuai bowed respectfully and said, "Brother Ding, I was wrong before, and I apologize to you." ”

Ding Yang's brain buzzed when he saw this scene. He walked over and helped Xu Jinghuai and said, "It's okay, everyone is a Danshi, just make it clear if there is a misunderstanding." ”

Xu Jinghuai looked at him and said seriously: "Brother Ding's strength is extraordinary, and I admire him." If you need it, you will do your best to help. ”

Ding Yang really couldn't understand him anymore, and thought to himself, this guy is not only Dan Xiu, but also Fa Xiu and Gun Cultivation. With such a talent, there is no need to care about yourself? He asked, "Do you have something to ask me for?" ”

"Indeed, there is one thing to ask for below."

"What's the matter?" Ding Yang had a curious look on his face.

"Ask some questions about alchemy."

Ding Yang was puzzled in his heart, it stands to reason that Su Xiangdi and He Lingxuan are far superior to him in terms of Danshu and identity, and those two seem to be interested in him, so there is no need to ask himself?

Xu Jinghuai seemed to guess his mind and explained: "I don't like to be restrained. ”

Ding Yang understood, invited Xu Jinghuai into the Dan room, and said humbly: "Actually, my Dan technique is also average, let's communicate with each other." ”

Xu Jinghuai said gratefully: "Brother Ding helped me this time, and he will thank him again in the future." ”

Ding Yang was happy in his heart, he thought that Xu Jinghuai could stand out for a guy, that must be a person with a temperament, and this kind of person would never be bad for his friends. He asked Xu Jinghuai to ask, he must know everything and say everything.

Xu Jinghuai asked Ding Yang about Danhuo control and material handling. Although Ding Yang didn't quite understand why he asked this, he still told him everything he knew.

If the Dan Master wants to advance, the Dan Huo is the most important. Among them, the Xuan-rank Dan Master needs to control four to fifteen Dan fires; Ground level Dan masters need to control eighteen to forty-two Dan fires; The Heavenly Rank requires the control of forty-five to eighty-one Danhuo.

However, different Danhuo Flame has its own limit of stake. For example, He Lingxuan's golden-veined leopard fire can generally divide fifteen Dan fires. In other words, if He Lingxuan wanted to become a ground-level Dan Master, he would need to change the Danhuo.

Xu Jinghuai laughed at himself after hearing about the split fire control, he also thought that he had inadvertently created a subtle alchemy technique, which had already been there.

After Ding Yang finished talking about the Danhuo, he sighed with emotion: "My Danhuo belongs to the lower grade of the Red Flame level, and it can be divided into three shares, but the Xuan-level first-grade Dan Master needs four shares!" ”

"Doesn't Danxie have Danhuo Tinder?" Xu Jinghuai asked.

"Yes, there is, but the Danhuo I can buy belongs to the top grade of the Red Flame level, and it can only be divided into about seven shares."

"Is there not enough spirit stones? How much is missing, I will give it to you. ”

Ding Yang smiled and said, "I want to buy a low-grade Danhuo Flame Seed of the Golden Flame level, I'm afraid your spirit stone is far from enough." ”

"Can't you just buy a lower one first?"

Ding Yang shook his head and explained: "Danshi's choice of Danhuo can't be too low or too high, it's too low to waste time, and too high to easily get out of control." Therefore, the best choice for the Xuan-level Dan Master is the Golden Flame Grade Lower Grade. ”

"I see, how did the Danhuo come from?"

"It's usually obtained from the Demon King."

Xu Jinghuai thought for a moment and asked, "Is the Red Flame-level Dan Fire Flame obtained from the Little Demon King?" ”

"Not necessarily, it could be higher."

Xu Jinghuai thought of his snow lotus fire and sacrificed it for Ding Yang to distinguish. Ding Yang asked him to urge the original form of Danhuo. Xu Jinghuai did as he was told, and when Ding Yang saw it, he was shocked and said, "This is not a beast fire, where did you get it from?" ”

"My father left it."

After Ding Yang was silent for a while, he advised: "When you refine the pill in the future, don't let others see it." ”

"Why?"

"I don't know exactly what your Danhuo is, but intuitively, it could lead to death."

Xu Jinghuai thought that his father died because of the snow lotus fire, and felt that Ding Yang's intuition was likely to become a reality.

Ding Yang saw him pondering and comforted: "You don't have to worry too much, the Danhuo manifestation is basically in the Dan furnace, and others can't see it." ”

Xu Jinghuai nodded and asked Ding Yang to talk about the problem of material processing. Ding Yang told him that the processing of materials is generally summarized by the ancestors. Future generations just need to remember, and this is where the value of Danfang lies.

In fact, alchemy is similar to cooking. A good chef pays attention to knife skills and heat, so that the dishes can be full of color, flavor and flavor. To become a Dan Master, you also need to have the skill to handle materials and the ability to control Dan Fire.

Xu Jinghuai asked, "If every material is handled carefully, what should we do when encountering complex pills?" ”

"It's a matter of practice. I remember that Master Zun once said that the knife skills of a Dan master are a hundred times more refined than that of a chef. ”

Xu Jinghuai thought about it for a while, felt that it was not right, and asked: "The Heavenly Rank Dan Master needs to control forty-five to eighty-one Danhuo, so it can be seen that the material of the Heavenly Rank Dan Pill must not be lower than the number of Danhuo. At that time, no matter how good the knife skills are, they won't be able to handle it, right? ”

Ding Yang suddenly laughed when he heard this. Xu Jinghuai was puzzled: "Did I say something wrong?" ”

"It's not that you're wrong, it's that I've asked this question before."

"The result?"

"My master told me that Dan masters above the Xuan rank basically don't use knives when handling materials."

"What's that for?"

"Soul thoughts."

"Isn't soul thought divine consciousness? How can the Divine Consciousness process the material? Xu Jinghuai said in disbelief.

Ding Yang shook his head and said, "I don't know the specifics. ”

Xu Jinghuai felt that he was too ignorant, and he had to add something about soul cultivation in the future. After Ding Yang finished speaking, he began to perform his sword skills. Xu Jinghuai saw it in his eyes and was shocked in his heart. No wonder Ding Yang was able to refine five top-grade earth-based spiritual qi pills, and with his method, it was estimated that he could peel raw eggs.

Xu Jinghuai went out of the underground alchemy room, and immediately went to find a guy and asked him to prepare some complex ingredients. The guy was very grateful to Xu Jinghuai for giving him a Dao Dan, and now he asked for complicated ingredients, and persuaded: "Don't bother, don't bother, what do you want to eat, ask someone to make it for you." ”

When Xu Jinghuai heard this, he suddenly had an idea in his heart. He said to the man, "I don't want to eat, I just want to practice knife skills now, you take me to the cook." ”

The guy thought that Xu Jinghuai was going to cook for the female guest, so he was happy and took him to the kitchen. There was only one person in the kitchen, with short black hair, a towel tied to his forehead, and a fat belly indicating his identity.

Xu Jinghuai was not verbose, and said straight to the point: "Teach me sword skills, and choose the spirit stone pill at will." ”

The fat cook was a little stunned and asked, "You want to learn to cook?" ”

"No, I just want to learn knife skills."

The fat cook was happy, lifted the kitchen knife on the cutting board, shook it and said, "Isn't learning knife skills just to make dishes?" ”

Xu Jinghuai exhaled and said, "I learned to make alchemy. ”

"Alchemy? Cook? What's this? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, you teach me sword skills, and I'll give you spirit stones or pills." Xu Jinghuai said impatiently.

The fat cook threw down the kitchen knife, clasped his hands on his shoulders, and said, "Then I'm going to ask Daodan, do you give it or not?" ”

Xu Jinghuai directly took out a bottle of Dao Dao Dan, shook it and said, "If you want to ask Dao Dan, it depends on your ability." ”

The fat cook's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly grabbed a fish and dealt with it in three or two clicks. After that, he picked up a thin slice of fish meat and asked with a smile, "What does the guest officer think?" ”

Xu Jinghuai looked gloomy, walked to the cutting board, grabbed a fish as well, and began to deal with it. I saw the knife flash, the scales were all shaved off, and the fish was completely placed on the cutting board. After that, Xu Jinghuai pulled the tail of the fish, and the fish bodies were connected like paper-cuts.

The fat cook swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked, "Are you from the Drunken Immortal Residence?" ”

When Xu Jinghuai heard the three words of Drunken Immortal Residence, he slapped his forehead and said to himself: "How did I forget Drunken Immortal Residence." ”

At that moment, he threw a Dao Dan to the fat cook, and ran to the Drunken Immortal Residence.
