Chapter 282: On the right track, cultivation dilemma

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, nearly a month passed.

Yu Lie stayed in the pill shop, enclosing himself in his room, which was also the largest alchemy room.

He looked at the Dan furnace in front of him, which was composed of Sen Sen's white bones, although the furnace had already revealed a mature medicinal fragrance, indicating that the pill had been successfully refined, but Yu Lie's face was still not happy, but frowned slightly.

When the heat arrives.

I saw Yu Lie gently knock on the white bone pill furnace, and the flower bones that were close together immediately bloomed, and a viscous juice flowed out of it, the color was bright red, the smell was pungent, and there were eyeball-like pills embedded in it, dense, very seeping.

Yu Lie stretched out his hand, took down the shriveled pills hanging on the inner wall of the Dan furnace one by one, put them on the porcelain plate on the side, and shook a copper bell next to him.

The sound of a jingling bell rang, and footsteps immediately sounded outside the alchemy room.

Song Danqing has been busy working in the Dan furnace for a long time, and now he is familiar with the work, in addition to greeting and sending off, he is also acting as a chorre in the store.

After the person knocked on the door, he walked in in small steps, and just saw Yu Lie holding a purple-red pill, putting it in his mouth and tasting it, and his brows were deeply furrowed.

Song Danqing looked at the pills placed in the porcelain plate.

After a period of bad supplementation, he already has a preliminary understanding of medicinal materials and pills, and recognizes that this is a pill called "Grape Beads", which can nourish the true qi and nourish the body, and is quite a superior one of the eight pills.

Its raw material is the use of grape spirit monkey eyeballs, accompanied by other medicinal materials, with the flesh and blood pill method to refine it, after refining, it will naturally become shriveled, like grapes, just one pill, can be sold for the price of five spirit stones.

According to Song Danqing's knowledge, Yu Lie has often come to the pill shop recently, and he is starting to study this flavor pill.

According to Song Danqing's current eyesight, he found that Yu Lie had obviously refined the pill, and the quality was good, which could be used as the main cargo of the pill shop this month and make a lot of money.

It's just that Yu Lie's expression made Song Danqing unsure, so he had no choice but to ask:

"Owner, what is the quality of the pill, and how much should it cost?"

Yu Lie was taking the pill, the juice was faintly overflowing from his mouth, swallowed a few times, and said casually: "This furnace is of high quality, and the price is marked, so it is better to use one pill and six spirit stones." ”

Song Danqing immediately replied, "Okay." ”

There was joy in his voice.

Song Danqing now regards the store as half of his home, and even Yu Lie acquiesced to him resting in the store, while watching the store, and saving him the cost of the hotel.

As for the aura, the store is also so-so, and it is okay, enough for Song Danqing's daily practice.

And after learning that the two alchemy disciples in the shop were kicked out, Song Danqing was still worried that the business of the store would decline, so he privately gave Yu Lie a lot of ideas, and also offered to prepare some charms and sell them in the shop, but Yu Lie also allowed it.

It's just that in Song Danqing's view, the shop's business has never been formal.

Now seeing that Yu Lie has successfully refined the eight-grade high-grade elixir, this person has a lot of knowledge of Yu Lie's alchemy skills, and he also secretly said in his heart: "Brother Yu's alchemy skills, although there are only one person, it is enough to be worth the ordinary three people, and the business of the shop can be on the right track, and it will not be yellow!" ”

Thinking about it in his heart, Song Danqing carefully collected the pills on the porcelain plate into a square jade bottle.

He looked at Yu Lie, who was still plain and happy, and said in a low voice: "What else does the owner need to order?" ”

Yu Lie heard this: "You don't need to call me the owner in private, just call me Yu Lie or Brother Lie." ”

Song Danqing nodded with a smile, but still bowed.

Yu Lie didn't say what he was worried about, but just prevaricated: "By the way, explain what you did, how did you handle it, but you have a relationship with the snakes and rats in the city?" ”

When Song Danqing heard this, his voice was even lower: "Go back to the owner." Almost, since I last revealed the store, there have been people who have revealed their intentions. I guess those people are also secretly inquiring about us now. ”

Song Danqing paused, and then said: "But in this way, our store has no cover, if someone is informed of the Dao Palace, will it affect the evaluation of the owner in five years?" ”

When Yu Lie heard this, a look of disbelief appeared on his face:

"No, if you want to do business with those snakes and rats, how can you not take some risks. Five years later, five years later, let's talk about it, just make money first. The channel of ghost market must not be abandoned! ”

After explaining, Yu Lie opened his eyes, looked at Song Danqing, and said with a smile: "Maybe Brother Song will have entered the Dao Palace by then, and you and I will have a turn around together, and it will be no big deal." ”

Song Danqing arched his hand and responded: "The owner laughed. ”

After a few more words, Yu Lie sent Song Danqing out.

The wooden door of the room was closed, and the noise disappeared completely.

Yu Lie came back to his senses, he looked at the white bone pill furnace that still had the residual aroma of the pill, but he sighed softly on his face:

"Even if it is an eight-grade cultivation pill, the improvement effect is not very obvious."

After tasting just now, a pill of grape beads can make him practice for one day, which is worth three days of ordinary penance.

This is not a small increase in speed.

But Yu Lie silently calculated, he was still about nineteen years away from thirty years of Taoism. According to twenty years, if he wants to reach the realm of a high-ranking Taoist disciple within five years, he will have to improve his Taoism for four years in one year.

In other words, Yu Lie's cultivation speed had to be increased to at least four times the usual amount.

And this had to remove all the chores outside of cultivation, including refining the pill itself. In this way, he can break through to the realm of a high-ranking Taoist disciple within five years through his dedicated penance, and he can try to break through to become a Taoist.

Thinking about it, Yu Lie secretly said in his heart: "No, it's not okay to increase the cultivation speed by four times. Every time you transform, it will take at least a year before you can carry out the next transformation.

In other words, if I want to perform a transformation of a Taoist priest in five years, I will have to cultivate twenty years of Taoism in the next four years! ”

As a result, his cultivation speed requirement has increased from at least four times to at least five times!

This doubling gap is between three and four times more difficult.

And the Grape Bead Pill that Yu Lie was refining now was already the most obvious pill for him to refine among the prescriptions he currently knew, which was convenient for refining and had the most obvious increase in cultivation speed.

But in the current situation, the effect of this medicine is far from meeting his requirements.

Even after breaking through to become a median Taoist disciple, Yu Lie will take this medicine again, not to mention the effect, his own drug resistance is estimated to be extremely great, and he must change the prescription.

Yu Lie frowned, and couldn't help but think: "It would be great if I could get another treasure like the Chizhen Secret Sand!" ”

It's a pity that such treasures as the Chizhen Secret Sand can be encountered but not sought. The second point is that the elixir that can directly increase the cultivation is also rare.

Yu Lie asked Song Danqing to inquire about the black market when he contacted the black market and started business.

It turned out that treasures such as the Red True Secret Sand would not circulate in the ghost market at all. Even if there are occasional daring people who dare to sell in the ghost market, they will be targeted by the forces in the ghost market as soon as they make a move, and they will spend a lot of money to buy it, and they will not sell it to the outside world, even at auction.

It seems that Yu Lie has no way out, if he wants to get it, he can basically only go to the outer city area in person, collect medicine by himself, and try his luck.

As soon as the thought of "luck" rose in Yu Lie's mind, he was immediately denied by Yu Lie:

"I am now a disciple of the Dao Palace, and I have a family background, how can I go out and take risks at will?"

Although he strongly wants to break through and become a Taoist official within five years, the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, and the outer city area can go less if he can.

Yu Lie secretly said in his heart: "In this way, there is only one last way left." ”

The ordinary, non-consuming eight-pinned pill is not good, and the rest of the list of targets is immediately placed on the eight-pinned pill with radical effect and some consequences, or the seven-pinned pill that only the Taoist is qualified to take!

What he pondered was whether he would refine the radical prescription and combine the medicine and poison so that the pill would have no negative effect, at least for him, or whether he could refine the seven-rank pill with his own hands that exceeded his current great realm.

Especially the latter.

The seven-pin pill is not sold to the eight-grade Daoists, but the Daoists refine it themselves, and no one knows about taking it by themselves.

And the cultivation level of the Immortal Dao is clear, and it is quite difficult to climb over the small realm in just one product. Being able to refine something beyond one's own grade when one's cultivation is insufficient, it can already be regarded as quite qualified.

And if you can cross a great realm and refine the seven-grade elixir with the body of the eight-grade, even if it is only the last of the seven-grade, it can also be regarded as an extraordinary, and you can enter the Dao Palace without taking the test and become an outer disciple.

If Yu Lie could refine the Seven-Rank Pill, it would not only help him greatly increase his cultivation speed, but also improve his status in the Dao Palace.

Five years later, even if he didn't break through to become a Taoist official, he would be able to continue to control the field at that time!

As for the radical prescription or the seven-grade prescription, where to find it, Yu Lie squinted his eyes slightly, and said secretly:

"It seems that the lecture on Taoism that will be held in March in the Dao Palace is indeed not to be missed, and I have to make some preparations."

In the lecture on Taoism, there will be at least one Taoist lecturer.

At that time, it seems that the disciples of the Dao Palace like Yu Lie can exchange the exercises, prescriptions and other things from the hands of the Dao Palace lecturers with the spirit stones in their hands and the Dao Gong.

And after Yu Lie passed the assessment, he got a Dao Gong in his hand.

As for why you don't go directly to the Dao Palace's Scripture Pavilion, pharmacy and other places to redeem, it is because in the Dao Palace, the classes are clearly distinguished, and what kind of level can only enter what kind of place.

He couldn't even enter the place where the Seven Classics were located, let alone exchange them.

If you want to get it in advance, the only way is to exchange it from a Taoist who has the status of a lecturer, and you have to be pleasing to the other party.

The reason why the rules are so cumbersome is that the purpose is nothing else, on the surface, I don't want the disciples to get something for nothing, not to help the seedlings grow, and to know the truth that the Tao is not passed on lightly, but in fact, it is just for the sake of secrecy.

Otherwise, Yu Lie has the relationship of Shouwu worship, and he can go to the other party to learn from each other while the other party is still alive, and harvest a large number of prescriptions.

It's a pity that most of the prescriptions in the hands of Shouwu worship, the other party made an oath contract that cannot be passed on when he learned it, even if it is the bloodline heir of the in-laws.

The reason why Shouwu is willing to work in the Qianlin Chamber of Commerce is that in addition to the good treatment, the main reason why the Shouwu Worship is willing to work in the Qianlin Chamber of Commerce is that the Qianlin Chamber of Commerce can provide him with a lot of Danfang exercises in addition and in advance.

"That's right." Yu Lie thought about it, and suddenly thought: "More than a month has passed, I don't know what is the life and death of the Shouwu Daoist?" ”

In a month's time, judging from the original appearance of Shouwu's worship, the other party either chose to become a ghost god, or he was seriously injured and died, and his soul was already scattered.

And for half a month, Yu Lie has been studying alchemy, ignoring a lot of miscellaneous things, and Luo Sen is also busy, and the two have not met in private, so it is inconvenient for him to ask, and he forgot to ask.

As soon as he thought of this, Yu Lie suddenly felt that he could take a break from alchemy, relax and relax, and take care of his subordinates.

After a short time, he put away the White Bone Pill Furnace, walked out of the room, and found the busy Lawson in the shop.

When he asked Lawson about it, he got an answer that made him relieved and secretly disappointed.

When Shouwu was worshiped in the end, he listened to Luo Sen's persuasion and did not choose to dissipate his soul, but became a ghost.

It's just that the other party sent a message to Lawson, and after his words became gods, he was not free, and it was not known where he would go. Although he has already trusted the relationship and wants to stay in Dao City, there is no guarantee that he will get his wish.

Even if he stays in the Dao City, when the time comes, his name will be God, but he will actually be a ghost, and many blessings will be reduced, which is not as good as a real Taoist, and he must act according to the law, otherwise, his actual status is not as good as that of a living Taoist.

However, the other party also asked Lawson not to be afraid, and to cultivate well.

Even if he was separated from Dao City, within a few Jiazi, some human contacts were still there, which was enough to ensure that Luo Sen cultivated steadily in the city.

In the shop, Lawson leaned over to the rest of the room:

"Grandpa Shouwu has now left his job, and the Qianlin Dadan room has been replaced by someone else, and the specific location of Grandpa is the secret of the Dao Palace, which is not known by the concubine."

Yu Lie nodded and arched his hand: "The Taoist chief will be able to stay in the city as he wishes, and please rest assured that my sister." ”

He secretly said in his heart: "The name is God, but it is actually a ghost, and after becoming a god, he can't help himself." This is the reason why the head of the Shouwu Dao is unwilling to become a god? ”

But Yu Lie pondered what Lawson relayed, and found that this kind of unfreedom was only incapable of power, and still had his own wisdom.

Take this kind of "unfreedom" and compare it with the life span of a jiazi. If you were to choose the rest of the columns, you would inevitably choose the latter.

After thinking about it, Yu Lie felt that there must be a deeper reason. However, he didn't talk to Lawson much more, so as not to worry the other party.

After some greetings, at noon, Yu Lie left the pill shop and returned to the mountain gate of the Dao Palace to cultivate.

The newly refined medicine is not to his liking, but before there is no substitute, he can only use this medicine to cultivate.

"Three times the cultivation speed, it's also so-so."

If this kind of idea is known to others, others will definitely smack him secretly and scold him for not being satisfied.

The time to come.

Yu Lie was immersed in cultivation, and the skill of refining grape beads became more and more refined.

Time flies again.

Two months later, it was the day when their group of Taoists could listen to the Tao and study the Fa for the first time.
