Chapter Seventy-Eight: Earthfire Peak
The prestige of the Ye family has been redefined, and other forces can no longer look at the Ye family with the same eyes as before.
Now that the Ye family has two more foundations, it is bound to expand externally, and it depends on the decision of the Ye family to expand.
However, now Ye Yongzhang and the others do not plan to expand externally immediately, and now Ye Shouyuan and Ye Shouyi still need time to consolidate their cultivation.
A few days after the banquet ended, Ye Tongxuan returned to the cave for alchemy. Since it has not been long since he embarked on the journey of alchemy, there are still many doubts about alchemy that need to be guided.
After he cleaned up, he went to visit Lin Chengde. After all, now he is the highest attained monk in the entire family in alchemy, and only he can answer Ye Tongxuan's questions.
Lin Chengde himself is not a fire attribute spiritual root, and he can't rely on his own spiritual fire alchemy, so he needs to use earth fire to assist in alchemy.
The aura above Yunling Peak is rich, but there is no earth fire required for alchemy. A hundred miles to the north, there is a low peak, where Lin Chengde is refining the elixir.
This mountain peak is called the Earth Fire Peak, and its name comes from the earth fire at the bottom of the mountain. Due to the erosion of the earth fire, the spiritual energy on the mountain was very scorching, and if he cultivated in it for a long time, it would undoubtedly be a kind of torture for a monk who was not a fire attribute spiritual root.
Therefore, the monks on the Earth Fire Peak, after staying on it for a period of time, had to be rotated and replaced by other monks.
Ye Tongxuan is now at the eighth level of Qi refining, and the distance of more than 100 miles can be reached in less than an hour.
Although the Earth Fire Peak is not high, due to the long period of time that the Earth Fire has eroded the entire mountain peak, few tall and dense plants can grow in the mountain peak, and from a distance, the Earth Fire Peak can even see the bare surface.
A puff of smoke rose from the mountain peak, and it was an alchemy apprentice who was simply processing the elixir.
Most of the Ye family's pills came from here, so the alchemist naturally couldn't master the entire process by himself like alchemy for individuals.
Therefore, for the simple processing of the elixir, it will naturally be carried out by the alchemy apprentice, and the final Cheng Dan has been refined and fused by the alchemist. Although this may reduce the quality of the pill, it can greatly increase the yield of the pill.
Otherwise, according to the ordinary alchemy method, it would be impossible to meet the pill needs of so many people in the family.
Of course, Lin Chengde and the others are not stupid, if it is a very valuable pill, they will still do it themselves. The mass-produced pills are generally the more basic first-order lower-grade pills.
After getting close to the Earth Fire Peak, Ye Tongxuan only felt a scorching breath rushing towards his face, and the closer he got to the Earth Fire Peak, the stronger this feeling became.
This kind of aura with a hint of earth fire, inhaled by ordinary monks for a long time, is harmful to monks.
Therefore, before Ye Tongxuan came here, he took an antidote pill. The erosion of the monk's body by earth fire is also a kind of poison strictly speaking, and the antidote pill is a panacea-like existence, although the effect is average, but it is better than nothing.
After Ye Tongxuan arrived at the Earth Fire Peak, he did not feel uncomfortable as an ordinary monk, on the contrary, he felt that his cultivation had improved a little.
He was a little surprised in his heart, although the earth fire aura was very sufficient, there were too many impurities in it, even the fire spirit root cultivator was not suitable for cultivating with the help of earth fire.
Although it can make the cultivation improve quickly in a short period of time, the impurities accumulated in the body will ruin the monk's ability to advance to the next stage.
Therefore, Ye Tongxuan was still a little vigilant about this feeling of spiritual energy refinement in his body, if he let impurities accumulate in his body, it would be more than worth the loss for cultivation.
He put aside this thought and went directly to the Earth Fire Peak to find Lin Chengde. This time, he came to Earth Fire Peak precisely to answer the doubts about alchemy in his heart.
In an alchemy house, Ye Tongxuan met Lin Chengde, who was directing the apprentice's alchemy.
Due to the high temperature in the alchemy room, everyone was wearing coarse cloth shirts, and Rao was so, but the clothes on his body were still soaked with sweat.
Although Lin Chengde is old, he is not relaxed at all about alchemy, as long as he has time, he is personally involved in guiding apprentices in alchemy.
Of course, he is also a rather strict person, he is meticulous in the matter of alchemy, and he will mercilessly scold the mistakes made by the alchemy apprentices.
When Ye Tongxuan came in, he happened to meet Lin Chengde loudly scolding his apprentices, and the apprentices who were taught did not dare to look at Lin Chengde, so they could only bow their heads and be scolded.
After being reminded by others, Lin Chengde noticed Ye Tongxuan standing at the door, and he said a few more words before turning to Ye Tongxuan and said, "Tongxuan Xiaoyou, I don't know what's important here?" ”
Ye Tongxuan said: "Not long after the junior stepped into the Dan Dao, he had some doubts in his heart, and asked Senior Lin to answer them. ”
"This is not the place to talk, we'll talk about it outside." Saying that, Lin Chengde walked out of the Danfang with Ye Tongxuan.
Lin Chengde took Ye Tongxuan to the other side of the Earth Fire Peak, which was less affected by the Earth Fire, and the fire attribute aura in the air was not so strong, and most of the monks on the mountain rested here.
Although alchemy on Earth Fire Peak is hard, the remuneration is also much more generous, so there are still many family monks who come here to help with alchemy.
The two sat down separately, and Lin Chengde asked, "I don't know what doubts Tongxuan Xiaoyou has in alchemy. ”
For Ye Tongxuan, he has also heard of it for a long time, a few days ago, the Ye family held a banquet, he naturally saw it, and he also knew his talent, so the tone of his voice was no longer the usual sternness.
Lin Chengde not only helped the family in alchemy, but also trained several alchemy apprentices of the common generation.
However, the apprentices sent by the Ye family are really flattering in terms of alchemy talent, even if Lin Chengde teaches alchemy by hand, these generals of the Ye family are still in the stage of entry in alchemy.
If you want to become an alchemist, you must start to cultivate in this area from an early age and exercise the monk's divine sense, which is why the alchemist's divine sense is more powerful than that of the monk of the same level.
Ye Tongxuan only began to contact alchemy in the late stage of qi refining, which was really late for Lin Chengde.
At this time, learning alchemy, not only can you not leave behind your own cultivation, but you usually have to deal with the tasks of the family, how can you have time to exercise your divine sense. If the alchemist is not able to pass the divine sense, he will not have any future on the road to alchemy.
Ye Tongxuan said the doubts he saw in the Dan book, and asked Lin Chengde for advice.
Listening to Ye Tongxuan's question, Lin Chengde frowned, although the questions asked were all on point, but Ye Tongxuan had just stepped into the Dan Dao after all, and it was really a bit lofty to ask these questions.
For example, the problem of refining the Hui Qi Pill, after all, this is a first-order high-grade pill, and it is also a relatively difficult existence to refine among the high-grade pills.
Being able to express the doubts in his heart is certainly worthy of affirmation, but it can't be so ambitious, only after refining it himself, Lin Chengde can only have an effect by clicking on it.
Otherwise, if it is on paper, Lin Chengde said that no matter how many precautions he takes, when it comes to refining, it is still easy to fail.
Lin Chengde preconceived that Ye Tongxuan did not take the initiative to refine the Hui Qi Pill by himself, but saw the refining process from the Dan book, and felt that there were some problems in it, so he wanted to pick a thorn.
Thinking of this, Lin Chengde was a little disappointed, and he said: "These questions are not easy for the old man to answer, you might as well refine the Hui Qi Pill here." Let the old man see where you made your mistake. ”
Lin Chengde's original intention was also to hope that through this refining process, Ye Tongxuan would not be too ambitious, and refine the first-order low-grade and first-order middle-grade elixirs in a down-to-earth manner, and not look at the masters.
"Okay, Senior Lin, then I'll be here to make a fool of myself." Ye Tongxuan agreed.
Seeing Ye Tongxuan's promise, Lin Chengde was a little surprised, it seemed that Ye Tongxuan was a little sure of his alchemy technique, so he was looking forward to the next alchemy.
