Chapter 309: Alchemy
Seeing Li Xiuping's face change, the Qingming monk frowned and said, "What's wrong?" Why did you suddenly ask about this Soul Melting Pill? ”
Li Xiuping shook his head and said, "It's nothing." ”
Regarding his own situation, it was too complicated, and Li Xiuping couldn't explain it clearly for a while, so it was not good to talk more to this senior.
The Qingying monk thought for a moment, and then asked, "You kid won't have a prescription for the Soul Melting Pill, right?" ”
With this thought in his heart, the Qing Ming monk felt more and more that there was such a possibility, otherwise he really couldn't understand why Li Xiuping had to take such a big risk to buy that Fang Furnace Ding, and there was no reason to go to the Dongyang Sect to snatch the medicinal materials that could refine the Soul Melting Pill, so that he made himself so embarrassed.
You must know that if it weren't for the fact that he happened to catch up with Li Xiuping, Li Xiuping himself would not have been able to fight against that Fire Spirit True Person, which was tantamount to asking for his own death.
Knowing that he was killing himself, but he still had to take the risk to buy that furnace tripod, it could only show that this Li Xiuping wanted to refine the pill, and what he wanted to refine was the Soul Melting Pill.
Although the Dan furnace of one side of the immortal weapon has a lot of benefits, especially for refiners and alchemists, this Li Xiuping is not a refiner and alchemist, but a swordsmith, although the furnace Ding also has an effect on the swordsmith, but the effect is not great, at least not enough for Li Xiuping to risk his life to fight.
Thinking of this, the Qingming Monk couldn't help but be a little excited.
He has been stuck in this distraction period for a long time, and the reason why he has never entered the merger period is that, as he himself said, there are so many differences in the distraction period, so that it has to be solved with the Soul Melting Pill.
But the Soul Melting Pill is more precious than the immortal weapon, it's really not that you can get it if you get it, otherwise he wouldn't have been stuck in this distraction period for so many years, if he can enter the merger period, just the previous fire spirit real person, he can hit the other party without the power to fight back.
It's also that I haven't been able to get it for so many years, so I converted the goal into the refining of the Soul Melting Pill, and after so many years of inquiry, I just got some of the medicinal materials needed to refine the Soul Melting Pill, but if you really want to refine the Soul Melting Pill, the difficulty is not much better than finding the complete Soul Melting Pill.
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "I do know that I got it from the ruins of the ancient battlefield before." ”
As these words came out, Li Xiuping clearly felt the runes under his feet tremble, and the three of them almost fell directly into the sea of clouds.
After stabilizing the Imperial Sky Formation, the Qing Ying Monk couldn't suppress his excitement at all, and asked, "Is this true?" ”
Li Xiuping nodded and said: "It's just that the specific how to refine it, with my current strength, whether it can be refined or not, the younger generation is not clear." ”
The Qingming monk nodded and said with a smile: "It's good to have a prescription, it's good to have a prescription." ”
Li Xiuping nodded and asked, "The predecessor said before that the Soul Melting Pill can erase the independent consciousness of the other self, can either of the two erase it?" ”
The Qingying monk nodded and said: "Whose autonomous consciousness will be wiped out, it depends on who can occupy the absolute dominance, generally speaking, the stronger side will be retained, and after the monk reaches the distraction period, one is the original host, and the other is the consciousness derived later, so the original host is more likely to stay." ”
Speaking of this, he looked at Li Xiuping and seemed to understand the worry in Li Xiuping's heart.
Because of Li Xiuping's special cultivation method, only the Yuan Shen appeared in the foundation building period, and his independent consciousness was born, so he must be stronger than the original Li Xiuping, and according to Li Xiuping's previous statement, whether it was buying that furnace or going to the Dongyang faction to snatch the medicinal materials needed to refine the Soul Melting Pill, he was obviously guided by another Li Xiuping, and Li Xiuping was completely in the dark.
Now that Li Xiuping knows the effect of the Soul Melting Pill, he is naturally worried that he will be wiped out.
Li Xiuping continued to ask: "Taking the Soul Melting Pill, the other self will not resist?" ”
The Qingming monk shook his head and said: "Basically, although it is an autonomous consciousness, it does not exclude fusion, in the final analysis, after all, it is derived from one, and finally returned to one, and one of them has always been dominant." ”
Li Xiuping nodded, lost in thought.
The Qing Ming monk continued: "I don't know your situation, but as far as the current situation is concerned, it is obvious that it is not yet time to fuse, so there is no need to worry too much about it for the time being, and this body is innate with you and is more compatible with you, even if the other one is stronger than you, even if you really want to replace it, it will be easier for you to dominate when merging." ”
Li Xiuping continued to ask: "Then why can it still be divided into two after the fusion, and fight separately?" ”
The reason why I asked this question was because I had seen the Sword Saint predecessor split into two before, fighting separately, and that Sword Saint predecessor was a strong person in the merger period, and he had already completed the fusion of the distraction period.
The Qing Ming Monk smiled and said, "This is the reason why I said before that neither of them rejects fusion, because even after fusion, the other autonomous consciousness can still exist in a new way, and when it really comes to ascending, it is actually necessary to abandon the physical body, and the two divine souls can coexist in a higher form at that time." ”
This is a bit complicated, and Li Xiuping is naturally impossible to understand now.
The Qing Ming monk continued: "And it is divided into two, each fighting for itself, in fact, it is just a kind of supernatural power, a kind of supernatural power that will be mastered during the distraction period. During the distraction period, the two primordial gods practiced separately, and each mastered different cultivation rules, and the two distraction period monks were separated, and after the merger, they mastered the two cultivation rules at the same time, which was the strong one in the merging period. In fact, generally speaking, it is not a special case, and the strong people in the merge period basically do not use this way of dividing into two to fight. ”
Li Xiuping nodded, he could understand this.
The Qingying monk spoke: "Let's enter the Martial Emperor City first, I don't know if the news of the demon clan is true this time, if this is true, I am afraid that the world will not be peaceful." ”
Li Xiuping suddenly asked, "If I join forces with my seniors, can I kill that Fire Spirit True Person?" ”
The Qingming monk was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Li Xiuping with a stunned expression.
Li Xiuping opened his mouth and said: "The seniors also said that this fire spirit real person has always been a trouble, and it is impossible for the seniors to always be by my side after that, since this is the case, why not solve this trouble now." ”
Li Xiuping continued: "And killing this Fire Spirit True Person can also deter those who have plans against me. ”
The Qingying monk nodded and said, "That's true, fight with one punch, so as not to come with a hundred punches, it's just ......"
He glanced at Li Xiuping, then at Yan Xin beside Li Xiuping, and said: "After all, you are a strong person in the merge period, although your strength is not weak now, it is difficult to play a role in front of the strong man in the merge period, I am afraid that your immortal treasures will not even have a chance to use them, and as for this little guy next to you, they will not be able to play any role." ”
Li Xiuping nodded, and then asked, "Then what if I can exert the strength of the Distraction Period?" ”
The Qing Ming Monk was stunned again, but it quickly became apparent.
Li Xiuping had already said before, although he only had the cultivation of the foundation building period now, another primordial god had already appeared, and that primordial god must have reached the strength of the distraction period, otherwise it would be impossible for this guy to make the Dongyang faction with the powerhouse of the transformation stage so miserable.
In other words, as long as Li Xiuping hands over his body to another him, he will be able to have the strength of the distraction period for a short time.
The Immortal Monk asked, "How long can it last?" ”
Li Xiuping replied directly: "It's almost half an hour." ”
The Qing Ming Monk nodded, lost in thought.
After a while, the Qing Ming Monk said, "In this case, there is indeed a chance to defeat or even kill it, but it will also be accompanied by great danger, so you had better think clearly about whether you want to take this risk." ”
Li Xiuping appraised: "As long as there is a chance, it is worth a try, and even if I fail, I am sure that I can protect myself." ”
The Blue Monk asked, "How long will it take for you to recover?" ”
Li Xiuping was stunned.
His own recovery is fine, the question now is when the other self will recover.
The Dongyang faction fought, and the other self obviously suffered a lot of heavy losses, otherwise he would not have said such things before.
In other words, the other self will also fall into a deep sleep before, but this time the sleep may be longer.
Li Xiuping asked, "If the soul is injured, how long will it take to recover, or is there any way to recover as soon as possible?" ”
The Qingming monk nodded and said, "Yes, it is to take some pills that can restore the soul, but the level of these pills is not low, and it is not easy to get them." ”
Li Xiuping continued: "What if it is refined? ”
The Qing Ming monk frowned and said, "You know how to do alchemy?" ”
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "When I was in Huayang Sect before, I learned some basic knowledge of alchemy. ”
The Qingming monk looked at Li Xiuping with some astonishment.
Basic common sense? Isn't it a joke that you only know basic common sense and want to refine a high-grade elixir?
Li Xiuping continued: "Before, in the ruins of the ancient battlefield, I accidentally obtained a inheritance, although it was very vague, but it still left some fragmentary information, among which there are many ways of alchemy, you should be able to try it." ”
The Qingming monk nodded and said, "In that case, let's find a place to stay first, it will take a lot of time for your body to recover." ”
Li Xiuping nodded.
The Qingying Monk glanced left and right, and then drove the Sky Divine Pass under his feet to a valley to the south.
Of course, the Qingying Monk also hoped that Li Xiuping would be able to refine a high-grade elixir, as long as Li Xiuping refined a higher level of elixir, the greater the possibility of being able to refine the Soul Melting Pill, and then he would be able to rely on the Soul Melting Pill to directly enter the merger period and get rid of the current situation.
The Soul Melting Pill is so rare that it is not even known if it can be found in this life, and now that Li Xiuping knows the prescription of the Soul Melting Pill, that is his best chance.
After the three of them landed in the valley, they found a suitable place to stay, and then Li Xiuping sat down directly with his knees crossed to recover from his body injuries, and Yan Xin and Qingming also found a place to sit down, without disturbing Li Xiuping, to protect Li Xiuping's Dharma, and at the same time to recover his own losses by the way.
After all, the three of them have experienced different degrees of fighting, and they all have a lot of attrition.
With the help of the willow tree and those drinks, Li Xiuping's body was recovering at a visible speed, and according to this situation, it should take less than half a month to completely recover.
Time passed day by day, and the three of them were completely isolated from the outside world, so they naturally didn't know what the outside world was like now.
At this moment, Li Xiuping finally recovered his peak, so he started the matter of alchemy.
Li Xiuping has never refined Dan, but he has smelted a lot of materials in sword casting, and he has learned some alchemy knowledge in Huayang Sect before, so he knows that alchemy and refining tools are actually similar, and refining tools need to control the properties of each ore and find the points where they can be compatible in order to fuse them, and alchemy is actually a similar situation, you need to find the commonality between medicinal materials, and then fuse them.
This step is actually not difficult, at least in terms of Li Xiuping's current divine perception, it can be easily done, the difficulty lies in the process of melting the pill, as long as there is a little deviation, the previous efforts will be lost, and the higher the grade of the pill, the more difficult the process of fusion, some extremely high-grade pills, and even the miserable end of the destruction of the pill.
Of course, Li Xiuping would not directly try high-grade pills, but planned to start with some ordinary pills first, and then try high-grade pills after he was proficient enough, but in this way, it was inevitable to waste some time.
And sometimes, time really has to be wasted, slow work can produce detailed work, too much rush, but will only outweigh the losses.
Li Xiuping first took out the furnace tripod that Hua Tianzong had photographed, and then sensed the fire attribute vitality between heaven and earth, and attracted these fire attribute vitality to pour into the Dan furnace, and soon a flame appeared in the Dan furnace.
Li Xiuping continued to induce the fire attribute vitality between heaven and earth to pour into the Dan furnace, and then searched for some pill prescriptions from the fragmented memories obtained before, trying to find those prescriptions that were not very high-grade and happened to be complete, but after looking for a long time, he found that there were complete prescriptions, but the grades were not low, which was obviously not suitable for him now.
In desperation, Li Xiuping could only take out the things he had scavenged from the Dongyang Sect before and look for prescriptions in them.
Not to mention, he really scavenged a few volumes of prescriptions suitable for refining now for Li Xiuping, and some of the medicinal materials he needed were also available.
After preparing all the necessary preparations, Li Xiuping began to master the prescription, and finally according to the guidance of the prescription, he threw those medicinal materials into the Dan furnace one by one.
As Li Xiuping began to work on alchemy, both the Qingying Monk and Yan Xin also paid attention to Li Xiuping's side, and then the Qingying Monk looked incredulous, because Li Xiuping's alchemy technique didn't want to be a novice at all, it was simply easy to come by, that kind of proficiency, as if he had already refined it hundreds or thousands of times, it really didn't have to be those alchemy pills were always bad.
To say that Li Xiuping can be so proficient in refining weapons, he believes it, and if he wants to say that Li Xiuping has a certain understanding of alchemy because of refining tools, he also believes it, but to say that Li Xiuping, who has never refined any pills, can reach this level in the first alchemy, he is really a little unbelievable.
In fact, Li Xiuping himself was a little unbelievable at the moment, because all this seemed so smooth at the moment, as if these steps and methods had long been engraved in the depths of his memory, although it had been a long time, but that potential consciousness would not forget at all, as long as he held those medicinal materials, he would be able to know how to deal with these medicinal materials in order to achieve the most perfect state.
However, Li Xiuping was quickly relieved, thinking that this should also be because of the so-called inheritance.
When he treated Huang Qing before, it was actually similar to the current situation, he didn't have to think about it at all, he could do it directly.
Although Li Xiuping didn't know what the inheritance obtained from the ancient battlefield ruins was, the other Li Xiuping must have known, as long as the other himself was willing, or as long as the other himself was willing to open a gap, these inheritances would be directly accepted by him.
Obviously, the other self is unwilling to open that gap, so Li Xiuping doesn't know anything, and now that guy has suffered a heavy blow, the obstacles between them have also produced columns, and some inheritances will naturally be directly obtained by him, but this way of obtaining it is extremely secret, and it will seem a little difficult to understand.
In this way, although Li Xiuping was refining the pill for the first time, the first pill was successfully refined very quickly.
Feeling this change, Li Xiuping directly tried some higher-grade pills. It's just that Li Xiuping soon discovered that refining high-level pills, in addition to having enough understanding of the prescription, also needs to accurately control the temperature of the flame, as well as accurately grasp the properties of each medicine, and the most important thing is to have a steady stream of strength support.
Therefore, the second pill may be because the grade span is too large, or it may be because although those inheritances have been left in Li Xiuping's subconscious, they are incomplete after all, plus Li Xiuping's mastery of alchemy is indeed not as skilled as that of sword casting, and he has not grasped his own strength well.
Fortunately, the Fang Dan furnace is an immortal weapon, which can suppress the backlash of alchemy failure to the greatest extent, otherwise Li Xiuping is afraid that he will be traumatized again.
After the failure, Li Xiuping was not discouraged, but he did not continue to alchemy, but thought about the main reason for this failure, and then made a demonstration in his mind, and after making sure that there was no problem, let Yan Xin be responsible for the supply of flames, and he was fully responsible for the smelting of those medicinal materials.
After failing twice in a row, he really made a high-grade elixir for Li Xiuping.
With the successful release of this elixir, Li Xiuping suddenly had an unprecedented sense of accomplishment, and he was full of enthusiasm for alchemy, and after pouring a sip of wine, he directly continued the refining of the third elixir, even if he was sweating profusely, he was never tired of it.
The Qingming monk on the side looked at it, and actually felt a little helpless, and sighed: "What a freak, no wonder even a character like the wine fairy can be involved." ”
Of course, this Qingying monk was more happy in his heart, or rather excited.
As far as Li Xiuping's progress in alchemy is concerned, I am afraid that it will not take long for him to have the qualifications to refine the Soul Melting Pill, so he will not be far from the day when he will fuse the Yuan Shen and become a merger period......
