This is the reason why Qingyang plans to learn Danshu, a large number of spirit flowers and spirit nectar can be encountered but cannot be sought, and he can't completely pin his hopes on alcoholic bees. It just so happened that the last time the drunken immortal gourd was upgraded, a large number of spirit herbs and elixirs were ripe, which could be used for him to learn the pill technique and refine the elixir to improve his cultivation.

First use low-level spirit grass to improve the Dan technique, it is not a pity to fail, wait for the Dan technique to improve to a certain level, and then try to refine the high-level spirit grass, even if the success rate is not high, the spirit grass in the drunken immortal gourd can also refine a batch of Qi Gathering Pills, at least he will not be too short of pills in the early stage of Qi training.

In the days that followed, Qingyang divided his time into two parts, practicing the Five Elements Forging Immortal Technique at night to improve his cultivation, and during the day he used it to learn Danshu without delaying each other.

Daily meditation has little effect on the improvement of Qingyang's cultivation, and there is hardly any growth to be seen, at least hundreds, or even thousands, of these days and nights may be required to improve that step. But he was not frightened, because he knew that cultivation was an extremely boring thing, and he had to endure loneliness.

In addition to practicing, Qingyang also tried to practice the sword technique recorded in the back of the Five Elements Forging Immortal Technique. Qingyang's divine thoughts are much higher than those of the same level of cultivators, and he has long had the ability to control magic weapons, and it is naturally twice the result with half the effort, and the single-attribute sword techniques such as the Jin Yuan Sword Technique and the Mu Yuan Sword Technique were learned in just a few days.

Qing Yang tried it in the practice field, he stood there still, and then used his divine thoughts to control the Red Flame Sword, and used the Fire Yuan Sword Technique to slash at a boulder in the field. I saw a red light flash in the air, and in the blink of an eye, the boulder cracked and became several pieces. This power is much stronger than directly slashing people with magic weapons in their hands, and it is also much more chic, this is the means of immortals.

With Qingyang's current divine thought strength and the amount of true qi in the dantian, using the Fire Yuan Sword Technique to urge the Red Flame Sword to attack can support him to use it more than a dozen times in a row, and then his true qi will be exhausted, and the Yuan Shen will be exhausted. This is still because the level of the Red Flame Sword is relatively low, and his divine thoughts are powerful and the attribute of the exercises is powerful, if other cultivators of the first level of Qi are to perform it, it may be almost the same seven or eight times.

After learning the unit sword technique, Qingyang tried to learn the dual element sword technique again, and he only had a red flame sword in his hand, so he used the judge's pen that he had obtained from Helan Feng as a magic sword, and used his divine thoughts to control the combination of two magic weapons at the same time to attack.

The power of the dual element sword technique is even greater, and the boulder in the training ground is just swept by the sword blade, and it is instantly shattered, if this is used against the enemy, even if the opponent is a qi refining cultivator, and has done a good job of defense, it may not be able to block it. However, the consumption of the dual element sword technique is also huge, and with Qingyang's current strength, it can only be used twice in a row.

As for the Three-Element Sword Technique, there is no need to think about it for the time being, with the strength of his divine thoughts, it is very difficult to control three magic weapons at once, let alone use it to form a sword formation to attack. And the three swords come out together, and the amount of true qi consumed is also massive, maybe one attack can drain him, and he can't chew it if he is greedy, so it's better to wait for the strength to be stronger in the future and then consider it.

Learning the sword technique, it is equivalent to having the means of attacking with the sword, and when you don't agree with the enemy in the future, you will sacrifice the magic weapon to attack, this is the correct use of the magic weapon and the spirit weapon, and the power of the magic weapon and the spirit weapon can only be maximized in this way. In the past, when I was in the Pulse Opening Realm, the method of slashing people with a magic weapon, now that I think about it, it was really tyrannical.

Most of the daytime Qingyang is spent learning alchemy, and the Danshu is not so easy to learn, and it takes a lot of experience. In the first two months, Qingyang collected a large number of spiritual materials and maps, starting from being familiar with various spiritual materials, spiritual herbs, and auxiliary medicines, and mastering the appearance, growth environment, medicinal properties, and the principle of mutual restraint of various common elixirs.

Every time you get a medicinal herb, you can instantly remember their name, characteristics, uses, storage methods, precautions, etc., and be able to guess their approximate year, growth environment, and medicinal power, so that you know the common spirit herbs well, such as a few treasures.

In the next two months, Qingyang was mainly used to learn the refining and purification methods of various medicinal materials, the use of heat, and the commonly used alchemy techniques.

Before each medicinal material is used, it needs to go through preliminary refining and purification, and different medicinal materials, the method of refining and purification is also different, some may need to be forged, some may need to be rinsed, some may need to be grinded, some may need to be stewed, some may need to be pressed, any step is not processed in place, it may affect the final Dan rate.

Danshi also has high requirements for the use of fire, high-level monks can produce Dan fire themselves, and control it as they like, as long as they can ensure that the true yuan is sufficient, the fire will not have much impact on alchemy. The low-level monks cannot produce Dan fire, and completely rely on the mortal fire from the outside world to refine the Dan, which requires controlling the size of the fire at any time, when it should be big, when it should be small, when it should be small, when it should be pointed, when it should be extinguished, and there can be no hesitation and delay, so as not to affect the final Dan rate because of the fire problem.

As for the techniques of alchemy, it is also very complicated, such as oven, crushing medicine, refining, purifying, stirring, fusion, reaction, slag removal, and medicine, static dust, patting, liquid collection, refining ointment, gathering spirits, carving arrays, painting patterns, condensing pills, collecting medicine, and so on. Once it is cast, it is no less than a fierce battle with a monk of the same level, not only consuming divine thoughts, but also extremely consuming true qi, and without great perseverance, it is impossible to hold on at all.

The low-level Danfang is better, there are not many medicinal materials used, as long as you master the main steps and then operate step by step, there will basically be no big mistakes.

The high-level Danfang, some need to use hundreds or even hundreds of kinds of main drugs and auxiliary drugs, the requirements of each medicinal material are different, some need to be dealt with in advance, and some can only be temporarily dealt with at the time of alchemy. In the high-level pills, each elixir is priceless, and one failure is a great loss, without superb pill techniques, no one dares to try it casually.

However, for Qingyang, a beginner, there is no need to think about things so far, what he needs now is to master each step skillfully and practice the basic skills.

It took four months for Qingyang to learn the basic skills of alchemy, and now he has a preliminary understanding of thousands of common elixirs, spiritual materials, and auxiliary medicines, mastered their characteristics, habits, and pharmacology, and is familiar with the basic techniques and steps of alchemy.
