Chen Peng was very interested in this, and he also wanted to see what kind of level these outer disciples had reached, and what level his cultivation could rank among these disciples. www.biquge.info The competition lasted for a total of five days, with a total of thirty-three challenges, and a total of twelve disciples' levels changed, which means that six disciples have improved their levels, and six disciples have decreased their levels. Of course, there are also three disciples who have been defeated and their level has dropped, but they themselves have succeeded in fighting again and returned to their original level.

Chen Peng didn't pull down this competition, and after watching it again, he also had a general understanding of the cultivation of the outer disciples. The vast majority of the outer disciples of the sect have already cultivated to the realm of advanced Great Perfection, and only those disciples who have joined the sect within the last thirty years have not cultivated to the realm of advanced Great Perfection. However, not all of these outer disciples joined the Xigeng sect through the entrance test like Chen Peng and Wu You, and there were also children of monks in the sect. The inner disciples of the Xigeng faction and above, as long as they are direct descendants within five generations, after taking Jueyuan Dan, once they awaken the vitality, they can immediately become disciples of the Xigeng faction. However, most of the monks are dedicated to cultivation, and there are not as many people who indulge in their children's private affairs as mortals, and the proportion of those who are willing to reproduce is even smaller. Today, among the fifty-eight outer disciples of the Xigeng faction, only thirty-two are descendants of the monks of the Xigeng faction, accounting for a little more than half.

This proportion seems to be more than half, which seems to be very high, but if so many monks of the Xigeng Sect are like mortals, they don't know how many offspring they will give birth. The probability of the descendants of the monks awakening the vitality is much higher than that of ordinary people, but the probability of awakening the vitality will gradually decrease as the bloodline is passed down from generation to generation. If the children of the monks have not awakened their vitality, have a backer, and are also well-known figures in the world, from generation to generation, I don't know how big a family can be multiplied in the five generations, if every monk is keen to pass on the lineage, I am afraid that the number of monks will be far more than now.

These outer disciples who have not cultivated to the Great Perfection realm, but the descendants of the Xigeng sect monks, are a little more than the scattered cultivators in the initiation. Thinking about it, the entrance competition is only held once in ten years, and the casual cultivation qualifications that can join the Xigeng faction are not too bad, even if it is a medium-level person like Chen Peng, he can enter the realm of the Great Perfection after cultivating for thirty or forty years, unless he is the kind of person who is too slack, he does not spend his mind on cultivation at all. However, the probability of this kind of person being able to win the entrance test is very small, which leads to the fact that the quality of casual cultivation who enters the Xigeng sect through the competition is higher than that of the descendants of those monks.

Among Chen Peng's fellow countrymen, except for Bai Jianchun, who was not very old, he only entered the Xigeng sect ten years earlier than Chen Peng, and now he has cultivated to the realm of the pinnacle of the advanced level, and the other Sun Ming and Yin Tianci have already cultivated to the realm of the Great Perfection. However, among the fifty-eight monks, two people attracted Chen Peng's attention, these two people were first-class disciples, and among the ten first-class disciples, the other eight people had been challenged, but these two people were not dared to challenge, obviously their cultivation was higher than everyone else, and everyone felt that there was no chance of winning, so they didn't dare to challenge at all. Chen Peng also inquired about the names of these two people, one is called Jiang Yuanjia and the other is called Pei Haoxiang, and Chen Peng secretly remembered these two names in his heart.

As soon as two years later, he will join the competition for this level, and now being able to see the depth of other monks' cultivation in advance is also a rare opportunity for Chen Peng. However, this premise is that he must be able to get the best assessment in the remaining two years, and today he muttered a little in his heart on the way to the service hall, Chen Peng didn't believe that Xiping Dao people could suddenly change their temperament and no longer embarrass themselves.

"Sure enough, this guy won't make me feel better. Chen Peng arrived at the service hall, received the documents and looked at it, and there was a little fire in his heart, and sure enough, as he expected, this Xiping Taoist did not plan to let himself go, and arranged for himself to serve in the alchemy hall this year. Chen Peng had no doubt that once he arrived at the Alchemy Palace, the errand assigned would definitely be the second most difficult processing alchemy medicinal materials among all the tasks. Rubbing fire is rubbing fire, Chen Peng is also a little helpless, the other party did not use any conspiracy, what was used was completely yang conspiracy, Chen Peng had no way at all, he could only hope that his character would explode, just like tempering Yuan Copper, to find a shortcut.

However, now Chen Peng is not as clueless as if he has received the task of the Alchemy Palace, at least Wu You has been in the Alchemy Hall for a year, and he asked him about the doorway inside, and it is always faster to get started. Moreover, his Tiger Roar Skill showed great power when he was tempering Yuan Copper, and maybe it also had a bonus effect on the processing of alchemy medicinal materials, but I still don't know anything about this, and I have to wait until I really try to do it.

After taking the errand and going back to ask, Chen Peng learned that Wu You did not change his errand this year, but still processed alchemy medicinal materials in the alchemy hall. After all, Chen Peng is the main master, and Wu You's evaluation last year was only average, and the people of Xiping Dao couldn't afford to change him another errand, and the only thing that was more difficult than processing alchemy medicinal materials was to exercise Yuan Gang and Yuan Copper. Last year, Chen Peng got a first-class evaluation, what is the secret if he can't keep it, if he changes this errand for Wu You, it may be self-defeating.

"That's great, Yuko, tomorrow the two of us will go to work together, you have to teach me. Chen Peng listened to Wu You's words, and his heart was overjoyed, in this way, he could get started a little faster, and it was better to have Wu You with him than to arrange a master for himself.

"That's natural, but it's a water-milling job, and it takes a lot of time to practice. You must know that only a small part of the medicinal materials used to refine the pill are useful for refining the pill, and a large part of them are impurities. This task is to remove the impurities and preserve the essence of it. The whole process is very complicated, I practiced for a month to get started, even now, I dare not say that I am proficient, you must know that if you are too careful, the purity of the processed medicinal materials is not enough, if it is too much, the useful essence will also be removed, this heat is quite difficult to grasp. If you want to achieve the best evaluation, there is no other way, only four words, practice makes perfect. ”

Chen Peng didn't make a sound when he heard it, the same is true for the errand of exercising Yuan Tong, only through a lot of practice can the level be improved, but who makes himself have a golden finger, it just so happens to be able to improve the efficiency of running errands. When I am familiar with this errand of processing alchemy medicinal materials, I have to find a way to try whether my golden finger has any effect no matter what.

On the second day of work, Chen Peng went to the Alchemy Palace, handed in the documents of the Service Palace, and a disciple came over and led the two to the pharmacy. The layout of this pharmacy is also a single room, and each disciple has his own single room to work in. This errand is the same as tempering Yuan Copper, it requires the full attention of the person who does the errand, and the more there is no interference, the higher the efficiency. Chen Peng originally wanted to follow Wu You to study, but what made him a little depressed was that the two were not in the same courtyard, which showed that the medicinal materials processed by the two were also different, so the processing techniques were also different, so Chen Peng could only follow the master arranged by the Alchemy Hall to learn the skills of processing medicinal materials.

This cheap master has a round face, named Sun Dazhi, and he is very kind, and when he takes the medicinal materials that need to be processed, Chen Peng's heart jumps when he sees it, and the thing in front of him is clearly ginseng zhi, which is the main medicine for refining Jinzhi Dan.

"I can't imagine it, I really can't imagine that there is such a coincidence. Chen Peng said secretly in his heart, "If I can refine some more medicinal materials on the basis of completing the first-class assessment, wouldn't I be able to hand it over to the master to refine the Golden Zhidan." ”

Chen Peng's mind was confused, and he watched Sun Dazhi process ginseng from the side. I saw that Sun Dazhi first wrapped a few ginseng mushrooms in a purple-red copper foil, and then put the copper foil on the stove in the corner of the house and roasted it. The mouth of the stove was covered with a silver Yuan steel wire mesh, and the ginseng wrapped in copper foil was placed on the Yuan steel wire mesh, Sun Dazhi kept turning the ginseng with a pair of tongs, and it was estimated that it had been baked for an hour, Sun Dazhi put the ginseng on the table and peeled off the copper foil wrapped outside.

Then he took out a black bowl and broke it into pieces and put it inside. At this time, the moisture in the ginseng mushroom has been roasted, and it is very brittle, and it will break when it is broken. Sun Dazhi used a small pestle to crush the pieces of ginseng mushroom in the bowl into powder. Then he took a clear crystal cup, poured a red liquid into the crystal cup, and poured all the ginseng and zhi powder in the bowl.

Then I saw Sun Dazhi cover the crystal cup, hold it in his hand, and urge the vitality to shake it constantly, just like the bartender in the bar in Chen Peng's memory. With the urging of his vitality, the red liquid in the crystal cup shone slightly.

"The liquid in it is called cicada dew, which melts an impurity in this ginseng mushroom powder. ”

Sun Dazhi shook the crystal cup more than ten times, lifted the lid, took a filter that could barely see the holes with the naked eye, and poured the turbid liquid in the cup. After being filtered by the filter, the red cicada dew slowly penetrated through the mesh, leaving a paste-like residue stuck to the surface of the filter.

Then Sun Dazhi placed the strainer on top of the stove, a foot or two away from the flame, slowly dried the pasty residue on the strainer, poured it into the crystal cup, and used a steel needle to pick up the residue on the mesh. Then Sun Dazhi took a bottle of light blue liquid and poured it inside, this liquid is called spirit clam urine, which is also used to melt impurities.
