Chapter 14: Breaking Through the Fourth Floor

"Two hundred proficiency points are required to get started?!"

Xu Mu's face was a little unsightly.

He realized that the difficulty of refining the second-order pill would rise, but he didn't expect it to rise so much.

But if you don't want to, you can't help it, the system is only responsible for displaying the data, there is no way to adjust it, and it won't bargain with him.

frowned and thought about it for a while, but could only admit it.

No matter how proficient the Chalcedony Pill was, he would have to learn sooner or later.

Although the skills had been displayed, Xu Mu did not add points immediately, but spent two days first, reciting the alchemy steps and practicing the pill recipe until the melon was ripe, and it was easy to come.

At this time, open the system to view, the familiarity of chalcedony pill has reached the beginning; 22/200。

Then he turned out Sun Daocheng's refining experience and pondered it carefully until he fully understood.

At this time, the chalcedony pill has reached the entrance; 30/200。

No matter what kind of attempt he made this time, the proficiency of the Chalcedony Pill would not improve in the slightest.

At this time, Xu Mu began to add points.

[Chalcedony Pill +10]!

[Chalcedony Pill +10]!

[Chalcedony Pill +10]!

……

[Chalcedony Pill proficient; 200/800】

It took another day, and Xu Mu consumed seven hundred and seventy qi luck points to raise the chalcedony pill to the mastery level, and then it was no longer promoted.

The main reason is that the qi luck value is almost gone, and there are only more than two hundred left, and he plans to keep it after breaking through the fourth layer of qi training, which will be used to improve the fire resistance technique.

After the addition was completed, Xu Mu did not immediately start refining the Chalcedony Pill, but first refined two furnaces of Qi Gathering Pill.

On the one hand, it was to warm up, and on the other hand, it was worried that in the process of refining the Chalcedony Pill, the spiritual power in the body would be insufficient, so the refining of the two furnaces of Qi Gathering Pill was kept for later use.

After all, the Chalcedony Pill is also a second-order pill, and the difficulty of refining it is far greater than that of the Qi Gathering Pill. It would be a pity if it failed because of the lack of spiritual power in the body.

Although the Qi Gathering Pill is not an elixir specifically used to replenish spiritual power, it has more or less a little effect.

If you take a large amount, it can also play a role in replenishing spiritual power.

After refining the Qi Gathering Pill, he rested for another day to adjust his state to the best, and then he began to refine the Chalcedony Pill.

Bone Flower, Yellow Lotus Essence, Blood Lotus Essence, Ice Spirit Flame Grass, Purple Blue Leaves, White Spirit Ginseng Fruit, Snow Lotus Seed, Red Spirit Fruit......

Carefully count the herbs.

Ignition!

Preheat!

The flame was already like a spirit in Xu Mu's hands.

The fire resistance technique that is close to the transcendent realm has already made the flame his arm, and he doesn't even need to pinch the magic trick anymore, and with a flick of his fingers, all kinds of changes will be born.

The Dan furnace emitted a little fluorescence, and mysterious runes colluded with wonderful patterns, covering the entire Dan furnace.

After sensing that the temperature was sufficient, Xu Mu put the medicinal materials into it in the same order to control the flame and stabilize the medicinal properties of the medicinal materials.

Time kept passing in the refining, except for eating a few Qi Gathering Pills halfway to replenish spiritual power, Xu Mu stared at the Dan Furnace without blinking.

In the end, after two days and one night of hard refining, the chalcedony pill was finally baked.

The air is filled with a strong medicinal aroma, and it is refreshing to breathe.

"With the cultivation of the third layer of Qi training, refining the second-order pill is indeed a bit reluctant, but fortunately, my refining technique has reached mastery!" Xu Mu sighed.

In order to avoid accidents, he also added two hundred more proficiency, otherwise he might not be able to succeed the first time.

It's just the quality of refining!

Three medium-grade, seven lower-grade, not even one top-grade.

However, if he can refine it successfully, he will already be satisfied.

If you want to refine a top-grade chalcedony pill, I'm afraid you can only do it if you reach the consummation level.

However, even if it was a low-grade chalcedony pill, it was also a second-order pill, and the price was ten times higher than that of the Qi Gathering Pill.

If he sells this furnace of elixir, he can earn more than eighty lower-grade spirit stones, which is worth refining his Qi Gathering Pill for half a month.

He can only refine one furnace a day, and after refining, he has to rest for a day, and he can refine about fifteen furnaces a month at most.

Each furnace is calculated according to ten pills, which is one hundred and fifty pills, and after deducting the cost of two spirit stones per furnace (the initial price), it is also a profit of one hundred and twenty spirit stones.

And the chalcedony pill is calculated according to one furnace in three days, even if it rests for three days in the middle, it can also refine five furnaces, and according to the calculation of ten pills in one furnace, it is fifty.

After deducting the cost calculation of twenty spirit stones per furnace, there is still a profit of up to four hundred low-grade spirit stones.

If you work hard, rest for two days, or even one day, and start refining a furnace, the profit can even exceed a thousand.

Compared with before the system, it has been directly improved by a hundred times.

This is a second-order elixir after all!

In the entire Baishifang City, there are not many second-order pills that can be refined, so it is not surprising that there can be such an exaggerated profit.

"Recently, prices have risen sharply, and the price of chalcedony pill must have also risen a lot, maybe my income can easily break 1,000!"

Xu Mu was in a very happy mood, and felt that he had added so much luck to the Chalcedony Pill, which was the right addition.

He rested for a day and was about to take the refined chalcedony pill to see if it could help break through the fourth layer of qi cultivation when there was a knock on the door outside.

Through the crack in the door, I saw a chubby figure.

"Jia Daoyou, what's the matter?"

Xu Mu opened the door, looked at Jia An, who was frowning and contemplating, and asked.

"Xu Daoyou, you are really calm! Don't you know that the rent has gone up again? Jia An looked up at Xu Mu and smiled bitterly.

"It's gone up again? How much has it gone up? Xu Mu frowned slightly.

Recently, he was either alchemizing or improving his cultivation, and he didn't pay much attention to the situation in the shantytown.

"Five lower-grade spirit stones!"

Jia An stretched out five short, thick fingers and said weakly.

To be honest, the price was completely beyond his affordability.

If it weren't for the recent rise in prices, which has made his income rise, he would have moved out long ago.

"So much? I remember that it only went up to three spirit stones last month! Xu Mu was surprised.

Five spirit stones were nothing to him now, but for the low-level monks living in shantytowns, they were enough to kill.

After all, their monthly income may be less than five spirit stones, and after paying the rent, they can't afford to eat.

"Who said it wasn't, the Chi family seems to have to, let's force it out!" Jaan sighed.

"The Chi family? Have we changed people here? Xu Mu was surprised.

He remembered that the entire Baishifang City should be under the control of the Song family.

"Don't you know?"

Jia An wondered.

After confirming that Xu Mu really didn't know, he opened his mouth to explain.

It turns out that in the recent period, in addition to a lot of fleeing loose cultivators, there are also several families who have moved in the foundation building period, including this Chi family.

The Chi family had an edict from the Qinghe Sword Sect in their hands, and the Song family had to give up part of the territory to them as a resettlement site.

And the area where they are located is one of them.

The forces of the entire Baishifang City have long been redivided.

"No wonder the last rent collector was replaced!"

Xu Mu was stunned.

"Jia Daoyou came to me, wouldn't that be what he said?"

"Of course not!"

Jia An looked left and right, lowered his voice and said: "I discussed it with the Taoist friends in a few nearby alleys, and I felt that it was not a way to continue to rise like this, so I wanted to unite everyone to go to the Chi family to ask for an explanation, I came here to ask you, would you like to go together!" ”

Xu Mu was stunned and said, "Jia Daoyou, you're not joking, are you?" The other party is the Zhuji family, just us people in the past, isn't that looking for death? ”

It's not enough to kill people, but with Xu Mu's guess, the other party probably won't pay attention to him.

The main reason is that the gap between the two is too big!

The people who live in the shantytowns are all low-level cultivators, and there are few of them in the middle stage of Qi cultivation, so how can they bargain with others?

"Xu Daoyou rest assured, when the time comes, there will naturally be monks in the late stage of Qi cultivation to come forward, let's just stand in the back and make a strong voice and show our attitude!" Jia An said confidently.

Xu Mu hesitated for a moment and nodded.

He originally didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing for a few spirit stones.

But the wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it!

If he behaves too unsocially, it is likely to cause rejection from others.

Seeing Xu Mu agree, Jia An had a smile on his face, and after saying the appointed time, he hurriedly went to the next house.

Xu Mu returned to the house and told Ye Yingying about going to the Chi family to discuss the matter.

"Xianggong, there is no shortage of spirit stones in our family for the time being, otherwise you should not go!"

Ye Yingying was obviously a little worried.

A group of low-level cultivators went to the Zhuji family to discuss the law, and there was obviously a feeling of mayflies shaking the tree.

"Don't worry, I'm not a fool, when I see a bad opportunity, I will naturally retreat behind everyone!"

Xu Mu squeezed her hand and reassured her.

Hugging his daughter again, Xu Mu returned to the utility room, took out the refined chalcedony pill, and prepared to take it to see the effect.

The agreed time with Jia An is tomorrow, so there will be no delay in taking the medicine.

Just hope that tomorrow's things will not have any accidents!

Xu Mu prayed in his heart.

Chalcedony pill is placed in the mouth, exuding a faint sweet smell.

Xu Mu didn't chew and swallowed directly.

After the chalcedony pill entered the abdomen, it immediately exuded a fiery medicinal power that spread to the limbs and hundreds of remains.

Xu Mu's skin became red at a speed visible to the naked eye, just like the whole person had entered the steam room, and there was a white mist steaming on his body.

In such a state, Xu Mu did not feel uncomfortable, but felt comfortable, just like soaking in a hot spring.

He didn't use the exercises to absorb this medicinal power, but let this medicinal power be released in his body, slowly clearing the impurities in his body.

When the medicinal power was completely released and the heat gradually subsided, Xu Mu rubbed his hands and found that there was a thin layer of dead skin on it.

He took off his clothes and performed a cleansing technique to clean all the dead skin and sweat from his body.

The skin, which was originally rough and dark, has become much whiter as the dead skin is wiped off, as if a layer of liquid foundation has been applied.

Xu Mu tried to meditate cross-legged and run the exercises.

I found that the spiritual power was running a lot faster, and there were faint signs of a breakthrough in my cultivation.

"Chalcedony Pill really has the effect of being reborn and improving physical fitness!"

Xu Mu was overjoyed.

Then he ate all the remaining nine chalcedony pills.

After complete absorption and digestion, Xu Mu's physique has been greatly improved, his skin has become white, he looks a lot younger, and his originally gray hair has also improved significantly.

Open the system panel, the lifespan column actually increased by three years, becoming one hundred and seven years old.

This is something Xu Mu never expected!

At this time, he ran the exercises again, and he didn't encounter a bottleneck at all, it was almost a matter of course, and his cultivation was easy to break through the fourth layer of Qi training, and his spiritual power increased by fifty percent.
