Half a year ago, Gu Qing bought this top-grade magic weapon Dan furnace in the Qiandan Pavilion where alchemists gathered in the middle of this Earth Fire Mountain Range, which was not the same as an ordinary Dan furnace.

Its shape resembles a toad sitting on the ground, the color is purple gold, there are two or three zhang high, six feet and four ears, and there are many textures engraved on the furnace body.

These textures are like flowing water, surrounding the furnace body, but like drifting flames, extremely agile, passing through the 128 small holes in the lower part of the furnace body.

These tiny holes are in the shape of copper coins, through which the monk can see the inside of the furnace with the naked eye.

Gu Qing stretched out one hand and held this thousands of catties of Dan furnace in his palm effortlessly.

'This Dan furnace should be enough......" Gu Qing's eyes flashed slightly, and his divine consciousness followed his arm and condensed into the Dan furnace, and the golden mana also poured into the furnace body with the probing of his divine sense.

In just the blink of an eye, Gu Qing refined this Dan furnace.

The golden mana around him swirled around him, wrapping the Dan Furnace under him, and then throwing it in his hand, he threw the Dan Furnace into the air, causing most of it to enter the embedded wall, levitating above the earth fire.

Since this Dan Furnace had already been refined, although Gu Qing still used his divine sense to capture it, he only needed to continue to infuse mana, and the consumption of divine soul power had been reduced to the point where it was almost non-existent.

Of course, when he really manipulated the earth fire and carried out alchemy, judging from what Gu Qing knew before, the consumption of divine soul power was still relatively large.

The earth fire was scorching the Dan Furnace, but it hadn't changed the Dan Furnace for a long time, Gu Qing's brows furrowed.

His gaze wandered in front of him, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, looking at the golden mana he had attached to this Dan furnace.

"Isolated by my mana, the earth fire can't reach the Dan furnace...... Is that it, I can withdraw the mana......" Gu Qing was a little unsure and touched his chin.

In the past, Gu Qing had not tried alchemy.

But at that time, he was still a low-level monk struggling in the early and middle stages of qi refining, running around for a few low-grade spirit stones every day, and his attempts at alchemy were only superficial.

After knowing that he couldn't refine the pill as soon as possible, he gave up.

Gu Qing thought for a while, then turned over his hand and took out the four ancient books.

He first picked up the foundation of Wu's alchemy, quickly flipped through it, and memorized every word and sentence in it.

"I see...... The mana that separates the earth fire from the Dan furnace cannot be completely removed, but it cannot be completely destroyed......

"And ...... Alchemy's requirements for flame stability are so high...... Flame control...... When to put various medicinal herbs into the oven...... When you become a Dan, you can't rush to open the furnace......" As he looked at it, Gu Qing's expression changed again and again, as if he had peeked into a novel world.

An hour later, after Gu Qing finished reading this Wu's alchemy foundation, he put this ancient book into the storage ring and slowly closed his eyes.

It wasn't until half a day later that Gu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, opened his eyes, and muttered to himself, "Although this book only records some basic things about alchemy, it is very suitable for me...... This alchemy has nothing to do with the talisman, and it doesn't talk about that bit of inspiration, but it values talent and experience the most...... If the talent is enough, then this alchemy will naturally be smooth."

"In order to practice this alchemy, the monk's affinity for the fire and aura must reach at least sixty percent......

"No wonder the number of alchemists is so small, if the affinity for the fire spirit aura reaches sixty percent, it can already be called a superior qualification...... There are very few people with high-level qualifications, far fewer than those with intermediate and low-level qualifications, and those who can refine the pill are only some of the people with high-level qualifications who have the fire spiritual root......

Gu Qing was slightly speechless and fell silent.

Even at present, his fire spiritual root may not have reached sixty percent spiritual power affinity, of course, this can only show that he does not have the qualifications to embark on alchemy at the beginning, and right now, his cultivation realm has reached the level of false pills, and this constraint is naturally equivalent to nothing.

Gu Qing picked up the advantages and disadvantages of the two fire control techniques, the three-talent formation and the four-element aqi, and slowly flipped through it

Looks.

Four or five hours passed.

Gu Qing let out a long breath and stared at the earth fire in front of him for a few moments.

He put down this book on the advantages and disadvantages of the two fire control techniques of the three-talent formation and the four-element aqi, and retracted his gaze.

Regarding the method of controlling fire recorded in this ancient book, Gu Qing only read it once, and he already knew it by heart.

He didn't look at the earth fire in front of him, and his divine consciousness condensed and fell on the earth fire, causing the earth fire that had been burning steadily to sway.

It was just a swaying moment, and the earth fire was steadily divided into three, and its color also changed from the original dark red to light red.

"The advantage of the three-talent formation fire control method lies in its extraordinary stability, but when refining the pill, it may occasionally be fierce, and at this time, it will change into a four-element aqi...... Gu Qing swallowed lightly forward, blowing a mouthful of golden mana into the center of the three light red earth fires.

Rise!

The golden mana immediately turned into a golden flame, attracting the three light-colored earth fires, causing the three earth fires to submerge into them, turning into a golden-red flame that exuded a fiery temperature but also had some stability.

With a tap in Gu Qing's hand, a trace of golden mana quickly sank into the flame, like a firewood, maintaining this golden-red flame.

Although this flame is also golden red, it is very different from the golden red flame deliberately triggered by Gu Qing.

The golden-red flame that Gu Qing deliberately urged was with a hint of the true fire of the sun, an extremely scorching flame, I am afraid that there was no elixir that could withstand even a trace of the scorching heat of that flame.

The golden-red flame bloomed on the lotus pedestal that originally came out of the earth fire in front of him, burning the lotus pedestal slightly, Gu Qing's eyes flashed when he saw this. Xiu Shu

He withdrew his finger, and the burning golden-red flame also quickly dispersed, swayed a few times, and turned into a dark red earth fire again.

Gu Qing looked at the steadily burning earth fire, and then picked up the Wu Clan's basic pill recipe and the encyclopedia of the medicinal properties of a thousand elixirs.

Gu Qing read this ancient book quickly.

Although it is the thickest of the four ancient books.

The medicinal properties of the thousands of elixirs recorded in it, Gu Qing just glanced at them from beginning to end, and then wrote them down.

"Most of them are introductions to the medicinal properties of first-order and second-order elixirs, and only the medicinal properties of the five third-order elixirs are recorded......" Gu Qiang put away this ancient book together with the ancient book he had read before, and picked up the last one left among the four ancient books.

"Wu Qingfeng Ancestor's Alchemy Notes...... This Wu clan's alchemy technique originated from this Wu Qingfeng......

Gu Qing looked at this ancient book and gradually fell into a trance.

In this ancient book, not only Wu Qingfeng's experience of alchemy is recorded, but also through this ancient book, you can also peek into the clues of Wu Qingfeng's survival activities thousands of years ago.

According to this book.

Wu Qingfeng was originally a monk of a small tribe on the south side of Qianchuan County, and the first third of this alchemy notebook recorded a lot of things about that small tribe.

Subsequently, there is the middle third of this alchemy notebook. Ь.

The middle third of this alchemy note should have been left by Wu Qingfeng during the time when he traveled thousands of miles from the southern end of Qianchuan County to this place.

From this part of the record, Gu Qing was able to get a glimpse of some things about the Great Separation Cultivation Realm.

As for Gu Qing's speculation, the Xiuzhenfang City here was controlled by the imperial court and the major forces, and it was impossible to sell the pills and exercises that could allow the monks to break through to a high realm, and he was affirmed from the middle part of Wu Qingfeng's alchemy handbook.

Wu Qingfeng also scolded these big forces and the great departure from the imperial court a thousand years ago, more than once.

And the essence of this alchemy notebook is the last third.

This part should be Wu Qingfeng, knowing that time is running out, deliberately left for future generations, and recorded the key points of refining many kinds of pills in great detail, and by observing the quality of various flames, and then determined that this flame can be used

The trick of alchemy fire.

After reading it for three days in a row, until he finished reading the last page, Gu Qing silently put away this alchemy notebook.

"Alchemy, it is really broad and profound, just refining more than a dozen kinds of pills of the first and second grades, there are so many ......" Gu Qing sighed, with a flash of inspiration in his hand, he took out the storage bag containing various medicinal materials separately, and took out a copy of the various medicinal materials needed to refine the first-grade lower-grade pills, the Muqi Pill.

Muqi Pill is a relatively rare healing pill among the lower-grade pills.

Gu Qing poked out his divine sense, manipulated the earth fire with the fire control technique, and with a movement in his heart, he put away most of the golden mana wrapped around the furnace body of the Dan furnace.

Raging......!

As Gu Qing put away his mana, the earth fire immediately expanded after touching the Dan Furnace, engulfing half of the Dan Furnace under it.

Soon, a raging flame ignited in the Dan furnace, Gu Qing flicked a flick of his hand, shot out a mana, opened the lid of the Dan furnace, recalled the steps of refining the wood gas pill, put a variety of medicinal materials into the Dan furnace, and began alchemy.

Three years later.

In the Cave of Earthfire.

Rumble!

A dull popping sound sounded, and then a large puff of black smoke shot out from the tiny holes in the Dan furnace above the earth fire.

Under the smoke and fire for three years, Gu Qing, who was still not stained with fine dust on his body, waved his sleeves, threw out a storage bag, put away all the black smoke, frowned, and looked at the Dan furnace in front of him.

In three years, the appearance of this Dan furnace has changed greatly.

It seems that dozens of years have passed, and the purple-gold Dan furnace that originally shone brightly has turned into a gray color at this time.

Gu Qing's heart moved, extinguishing the burning golden-red flame under the gray Dan furnace, and regardless of the scorching furnace body that was a little red all over, he condensed his spiritual power and opened the lid of the furnace, looking at some medicinal residues under the flame that was gradually extinguishing inside.

"This high-level White Jade Pill Pill has been fried a hundred times in a row so far...... Among this product, the most difficult pill to refine should be this White Jade Pill Pill......

Gu Qing threw the Dan furnace aside, pointed it as a sword, gathered a little water vapor, and forcibly performed a few dust removal techniques on the Dan furnace to clean it up.

Then, Gu Qing once again placed the Dan furnace on top of the earth fire.

He quietly looked at the already familiar high-grade magic weapon Dan furnace in front of him, and his eyes showed a thoughtful look.

In the past three years, Gu Qing has consumed almost all the medicinal materials he purchased before, and has refined more than a dozen first-grade pills, among which the largest number of refining is the low-grade Wood Qi Pill - this pill, he has refined more than 57,000 pills.

The Wood Qi Pill can be made into about fifteen to fifty pills in one furnace, although this Pill is the first pill that Gu Qing tried to refine, but when he refined this Wood Qi Pill ten thousand times, the success rate of refining this Pill has reached ninety percent, which is the one with the highest power he has refined so far, followed by a mid-level healing pill.

Gu Qing found that when he refined the healing pills by himself, or rather, when refining some pills with wood elixirs as the main medicine, he was indeed more handy than refining other pills.

'Right now, continuing to refine this kind of White Jade Pill Pill here will not help me improve my alchemy level...... The reason why this kind of white jade pill pill refining power is low should be that the fire control technique is not quite right...... After all, this white jade pill Dao is not in Wu Qingfeng's alchemy notes, it is the prescription that Wu Shi got later......" Gu Qing thought so, got up, and left the futon that had been sitting for three years.

The futon under the seat is still as clean as ever, but it is a little flattened, and there are two deep butt marks left on it.

Gu Qing put the futon into the storage ring and looked at himself.

After three years of continuous alchemy, constantly urging the golden mana, at the moment, although his control of the mana around his body is not meticulous, but it is also a lot more subtle than before, and the perfect cultivation of the fake pill realm has reached the point of returning to the basics under full consolidation, without revealing a single bit.

In the sea of dantian qi, that void

Dan is not half a point more condensed than before, but there is already a sense of condensation on it.

'Impetuousness is gone, and the lead is washed away......"

'If you hit the knot pill at the moment, the success rate will be at least half a percent higher than before......" Gu Qingfu thought in his heart.

This is a kind of induction in the dark, and Gu Qing can't say where it came from, but it really makes him convinced.

He waved his hand to put away the red-hot Dan furnace, and put away the storage bag used to collect black smoke, and then with a flash of brilliance in his hand, he took out the storage bag containing the elixir he had been refining for the past three years.

Gu Qing contemplated it, looking at the elixir that was like a mountain inside.

'What should I do with these elixirs...... Bring it back to Lin Tingxue? Or is it used to feed the little green snake and the rammed black tiger...... "Gu Qing was a little difficult.

There are hundreds of thousands of pills in this storage bag, but they are all first-grade pills, and even if they are sold, they can't get many spirit stones.

For Gu Qing, it was really a waste of effort, there was time to sell these pills, he might as well cultivate for a while.

Lin Tingxue's side, in the news two months ago, she said that she had cultivated to the eleventh layer of qi refining, and she had the spiritual liquid that was a specialty of the stone tablet space, and she didn't need these pills with erysipelas...... Hmm, let's separate two of the first-grade mid-grade pills above the Dan pattern and hand them over to Lin Tingxue. "

'As for the black tiger and the little green snake...... Forget it. "

Gu Qing took out a storage bag again, and from these hundreds of thousands of pills, he quickly separated more than 3,000 first-grade mid-grade pills with two Dan patterns, and put them into the newly taken out storage bag.

Gu Qing put these two storage bags into the storage ring together, and his figure shook, and he came to the Earth Fire Cave.

Combined with the records of the last third of the alchemy handbook, and what Gu Qing had seen before, he had given up on the two pills and the five-colored jade mushroom needed to break through the knot pill in this great departure realm, and he was ready to leave this place in the teleportation array to collect the few things needed to break through the knot pill.

Gu Qing took out the black stone talisman, passed through the invisible barrier in front of the Earth Fire Cave, and his body shook, and came to the mid-air in the area on the east side of the Earth Fire Mountain Range.

He looked down at the deserted area below, his eyes were on the side of the Earth Fire Cave he rented, and the other Earth Fire Cave swept by, and he saw the thin little cultivator in front of this Earth Fire Cave again.

This time, this skinny female cultivator was still cleaning the Dan furnace.

However, Gu Qing could see that although the Dan furnace he cleaned up was still only a low-grade magic weapon layer, it was no longer the same as the previous Dan furnace.

'The previous Dan furnace...... The fryer blew up? "

Gu Qing looked down with some amusement, the thin female cultivator who was still scolding and struggling to clean up the Dan furnace.

From this thin female cultivator, Gu Qing felt a lively vitality, and the silence of the past three years was swept away, and she was in a good mood.

The so-called, sitting for a long time in the air turned dry.

The implication is that after a long period of retreat, the breath around the body will lose its vitality and become lifeless, which is not conducive to spiritual practice.

"It's fate...... Gu Qing nodded, and with a flash of inspiration in his hand, he had already taken out the storage bag containing the hundreds of thousands of pills, and flew to the thin little cultivator.

As soon as the thin female cultivator looked up, she saw a figure in front of her against the light, and immediately took a few steps back quite vigilantly, fully alert, and pressed one hand on the storage bag on her waist.

"Former ...... Senior!" Her vigilance only lasted for less than half a breath, and after seeing Gu Qing's appearance clearly, she wilted, stood still honestly, and bowed with her fists clenched.

"Hehe, a certain is also fated to you, and today it happens to be a small gift." Gu Qing opened his mouth with a smile.

Immediately, he threw away the storage bag containing hundreds of thousands of low-grade pills as if he were throwing garbage: "Some of the pills in here will be given to this little friend, and I hope that the little friend will encourage him to practice."

The thin nun's dark face was a little dazed.

"Huh?" Although she was at a loss, she obviously had no qualifications to refuse the gift from her predecessors.

She took the storage that Gu Qing had thrown away

The bag didn't even investigate - after all, she was only at the fourth level of Qi refining, and she didn't have the divine sense yet, so she couldn't find out what was in the storage ring.

"Thank you for your kindness."

She honestly saluted Gu Qing again, but before this salute could continue, Gu Qing had already smiled at her slightly, and her body disappeared in front of her as if evaporating.

"Hmph, what kind of elixir, who is rare, elusive guy, scared to death......" The thin female cultivator said a few words in her heart, and pulled the old storage bag in her hand.

Although she is slandered, the skinny nun actually has some expectations.

She quickly glanced around, put away her Dan furnace, and returned to the earth fire cave, looking at the storage bag in her hand with bright eyes, injecting spiritual power, and pouring it forward.

Crash!

The thin female cultivator only felt that her spiritual power seemed to be out of control, and she was sucked into this storage bag, and half of it was lost in the blink of an eye.

Just when she was secretly frightened.

A huge amount of pills poured out of the storage bag like a tide, sending her into the air and turning a few times, and then her thin body was drowned in hundreds of thousands of pills.

She poked her head out of the elixir and looked at the elixir piled up in the fire hole in the small half of the ground, dumbfounded.

Among these pills, there were those she had taken, those she had never seen, and those she had never seen...... For a while, she even thought she was dreaming, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, and when she came back to her senses, she pinched herself a few times, and her eyes rolled and she almost fainted.

"That guy ......"

"Is he my long-lost father......

She was lying on hundreds of thousands of pills, with a happy smile on her black little face, recalling Gu Qing's face, and her heart had experienced the shock and ecstasy before, and she had become a little numb.

"There are so many pills, you can't just leave them ...... place."

Even if she breaks the eleven, she will vomit blood in distress!

The thin little nun got up, like an industrious little bee, and began to count the pills, and while counting, she said that the pills were taken back into the storage bag.

The side of the Earthfire Mountains.

The giant peak where Chiling Fang is located, halfway up the mountainside.

Gu Qing's footsteps stagnated slightly, and he looked at the strange Zhuji female cultivator guarding on the side, and just glanced at it, and then withdrew his gaze.

The man had said that he would leave in three years, but now that three years have passed, it seems that he has returned to the valley of the wild goose...... Luoyan Valley, Luo Wanling, who was killed before, and the female cultivator who set up a stall in the pit me, seem to be monks from this Luoyan Valley......" Gu Qing continued to climb upward, ignoring the strange Zhuji female cultivator who was guarding this place and was casting a suspicious gaze.

"This fellow Daoist, could it be that he is looking for Senior Brother Qi who was guarding here before?" The strange Zhuji nun asked, with a gleam in her beautiful eyes.

Gu Qing's footsteps paused, and he looked sideways at the female cultivator again, a pair of eyes turned into a clear crimson, and the pupils turned into a faint gold.

Hundreds of zhang away, Gu Qing clearly saw that the female cultivator who was guarding here was wearing a green skirt, and the aura of cultivation on her body was double in the foundation building, her skin was fair and delicate, like beautiful jade, and there was still a little vitality left on her delicate face, and she should not be very old.

"Your Excellency, Meng Lang, can be a little different from Senior Brother Qi's description." The woman's eyebrows furrowed, shrunk her figure, and said displeasedly.

"If you are offended, please Haihan." Gu Qing smiled lightly, and hugged his fists at the female cultivator from afar.

"I don't know, that Qi Daoyou, what words did you leave for so-and-so?" Immediately afterwards, Gu Qing took advantage of the situation and asked. xь.

The nun in the green skirt responded slightly coldly:

"Senior Brother Qi said that if you meet someone who looks like this Taoist friend, tell that person, 'The old man left the West, the vast autumn moon is a million miles, the old dream of the previous dynasty, the words of the flying dragon and the sea are withered, the dragon and the tiger meet and the true Dancheng is born, the eight scenes return to the light of no life, where do you not meet at the end of the world, go and come to the fairy country", and let that person go to Luoyan Valley to find him."

After speaking, the nun in the green skirt stopped talking.
