Chapter 326: Refining the Soul Melting Pill
Knowing the intention of these two saints, Li Xiuping seemed to have suddenly grasped something, and his mood seemed a little excited.
Now it is basically certain that the threat of the demon clan does exist, and it seems that it cannot be dealt with by the Seven Holy Lands alone, so after he kills the fire spirit real person, Drifting Snow City and Incense Burner Mountain will come to him, just to find a way to deal with the demon race.
In other words, if it weren't for the grievances between Taiyi Pavilion and Stargazing Tower and Li Xiuping, it might not only be Xianglu Mountain and Drifting Snow City now, but Taiyi Pavilion and Stargazing Tower.
In other words, he may be able to use this matter as his own life talisman, as long as he does not hand over the way to deal with the demon clan, then the Seven Holy Lands and even the Four Great Cities may need his own help, then he can use this matter to let all forces put pressure on Taiyi Pavilion and Stargazing Tower, forcing the two families to not be able to take action against themselves for the time being.
The two saints seemed to know what Li Xiuping was thinking, and the saint in Drifting Snow City said with a smile: "Li Gongzi may not know how much the threat of the demon clan is to the human world, if Li Gongzi really has a way to deal with the demon race, not to mention the seven holy lands, even if it is the three mountains, he will do his best to ensure the safety of Li Gongzi, provided that Li Gongzi does have a way to deal with the demon race." ”
At this time, the sage of Xianglu Mountain also spoke: "I can't hide it, according to the information that our two families have, Kunlun Mountain has already given orders to His Excellency Taiyi, so Taiyi Pavilion will not make a move against Li Shizhu now." ”
Li Xiuping really didn't expect that the incident would have such a big impact, so much so that even Kunlun Mountain had to come forward and give an order to His Excellency Taiyi.
Li Xiuping asked directly: "What about the stargazing tower?" ”
The saint of Incense Burner Mountain shook his head, but it was the saint of Drifting Snow City who spoke: "The attitude of Taiyi Pavilion is not clear now, but the current situation, even if Taiyi Pavilion and Stargazing Tower are together, it is difficult to threaten Li Gongzi, let alone only one Stargazing Tower." ”
Li Xiuping nodded, and then said: "I do have a way to deal with the demon clan, but this involves the inheritance I got in the ancient battlefield ruins before, because in the previous battle with the Fire Spirit Real Man, my body was seriously injured, which caused some problems in the inheritance, and it will take a while to recover." ”
Hearing Li Xiuping's statement, the two saints frowned, and at the same time they both stared at Li Xiuping, as if they wanted to see if Li Xiuping was lying.
Li Xiuping continued: "Before that, I need to refine a Soul Melting Pill to help the Qingying seniors break through, and then I will enter the Martial Emperor City with the two seniors, and I will tell you all what I know at that time." ”
Hearing this, both saints were stunned at the same time.
Soul Melting Pill?
Of course, they knew what the Soul Melting Pill meant, and if this Li Xiuping was really able to refine the Soul Melting Pill, it would change the situation in the entire cultivation world in a short period of time, and in a short period of time, the entire cultivation world would be able to have countless more Merge Stage powerhouses.
There are so many strong people in the human cultivation world at once, whether it is against the demon clan or the demon clan, it can increase the chances of victory.
And at that time, the importance of this Li Xiuping to the entire cultivation world will be self-evident, not to mention that he knows how to deal with the demon race, even if he doesn't know, the entire human cultivation world will have to protect him.
Being able to forge an immortal sword is already of great significance in itself, and if it can refine the Soul Melting Pill, then its significance is far greater than being able to forge an immortal sword.
Everyone knows that the Soul Melting Pill is an immortal pill, which means that in addition to the Soul Melting Pill, Li Xiuping can also refine other immortal pills, these pills may not be very useful in normal times, but if the entire human race needs to be put into battle, these pills will play a major role in reversing the situation.
The two saints finally understood what Li Xiuping meant at this moment, what inheritance was damaged, it was just an excuse, the purpose was to hope that Drifting Snow City and Incense Burner Mountain would ensure his safety for the time being, and after he refined the Soul Melting Pill, it would naturally not matter whether there was protection from Incense Burner Mountain and Drifting Snow City.
The sage in Drifting Snow City asked, "I don't know how long it will take Gongzi Li?" ”
Li Xiuping thought for a moment and said: "Three months at most, and one month at break." ”
The saint in Drifting Snow City shook his head and said, "Three months is too long. ”
Li Xiuping frowned and said, "The situation in Emperor Martial City is so serious? ”
The two saints glanced at each other, then nodded and said, "Now we can barely suppress it by relying on the strong people from all sides joining forces, but if we can't find a solution, it will definitely be a huge disaster at that time." ”
Li Xiuping asked, "Demon Clan? ”
The two saints nodded at the same time, and said, "The so-called attack of the Yao clan is actually just to hide people's eyes and ears, and it is the result of the joint discussion of the three mountains. ”
Li Xiuping frowned and said: "The younger generation doesn't understand very well, why do you want to hide it, who is it hidden?" It's not these people, is it? ”
The saint in Drifting Snow City asked with a smile, "Gongzi Li thinks that in the entire cultivation world, there is only one person like the Fire Spirit True Person?" ”
Li Xiuping was stunned for a moment, and then understood.
The saint in Drifting Snow City continued: "Although human beings are a community, there are also differences between men and women, the same between mountains and mountains, the same gateway views, three religions and nine streams, and everyone's beliefs are also different, some believe in Taoist ancestors, some believe in Buddha, and there are countless gods, so naturally there are also people who believe in the so-called demon gods." The so-called Nine Gates, Eight Sages, Seven Sages, Four Cities, and Three Mountains are actually only forces on the surface, but there are not a few forces that can compete with them secretly. ”
Speaking of this, he said bitterly: "Actually, the situation is not very good now, don't look at the calm now, in fact, there has already been an undercurrent surging, in this Martial Emperor City, I don't know how many strong people are hiding." ”
Li Xiuping nodded, he really didn't expect the situation in this Martial Emperor City to be so complicated, this was far more complicated than he imagined.
Li Xiuping asked, "What is the situation with the Sword Washing Pond and the Guanchao Academy now?" ”
The saint of Drifting Snow City said with a smile: "It shouldn't be long before I can rush to Emperor Wu City, and you will know when the time comes, that is, when the four families meet together, it will inevitably be troublesome again." ”
Speaking of this, he let out a "hey" and said, "That city lord of Martial Emperor City is really not easy at all. ”
The sage of the incense burner mountain clasped his hands together and said, "The greater the power, the greater the responsibility." Amitabha! ”
The saint in Drifting Snow City smiled and said, "That's the truth. ”
After speaking, he looked at Li Xiuping and said, "Two months at most, and this is already the limit." ”
Li Xiuping thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, after two months, whether it is successful or not, the juniors will enter Emperor Wu City with the two seniors." ”
The two saints nodded and said, "Then you can find a place, and we will protect the Dharma for you." ”
Not to mention Li Xiuping, even the Qingying monks were stunned, and even the "Fire Spirit True Man" and the blue water unicorn were a little stunned.
The two saints actually protected Li Xiuping.
The "Fire Spirit Real Man" is okay, after all, he has been following Li Xiuping for so long, and he knows Li Xiuping quite well, but the blue water unicorn is shocked in his heart at this moment.
A monk at the peak of the foundation building period, whether such a realm is placed in the human cultivation world or the demon clan, it is a small existence like ants, to say that there is a strong man in the distraction period who is by his side, it is barely reasonable, and now even two strong people in the tribulation period have to take the initiative to show favor to him, and even help him protect the Dharma. The key is that these two Tribulation Period powerhouses are still from the Seven Holy Lands' Drifting Snow City and Incense Burner Mountain, and they are the top part of this world.
It felt that it had wronged itself by following Li Xiuping's side, but now it suddenly felt that it seemed to have picked up a treasure, and when it met such a guy, it might be its own fate and creation, and its future cultivation might also be greatly changed because of this guy.
Li Xiuping said with a smile: "Then you have to eat a full meal first." ”
The two saints were stunned for a moment, and then their expressions were a little embarrassed, but they forgot that this Li Xiuping only had a foundation building period of cultivation, and he couldn't be like them.
After eating, everyone left the restaurant together, and found a quiet place nearby, and they were not as cautious as they had been casting swords before.
First, alchemy is not like forging a sword, there is a lot of movement, after all, the pill itself is not as offensive as a magic weapon, so there is no need to arrange a formation or something like that.
Second, now that there are two saints protecting the Dharma, even if there is really any movement, no one dares to step forward when the two saints stop there.
Of course, after all, what was refined this time was an elixir, and there may be no movement in the refining process, but when the elixir is released, there will inevitably be some visions of heaven and earth, but Li Xiuping has never refined an elixir before, and he has not even seen it, so he himself does not know if there will be any problems.
Li Xiuping first found a place to sit down, then took out the square furnace ding, then closed his eyes, and went through the prescription of the Soul Melting Pill in his mind, before taking out the medicinal materials needed to refine the Soul Melting Pill one by one.
After preparing all the medicinal materials, Li Xiuping took out the fire attribute immortal treasure and did not start refining it directly, but went through the prescription in his mind again to make sure that there was nothing missing, and after everything was ready, he drove the fire attribute immortal treasure.
Alchemy is different from sword casting, the mastery of the heat when casting the sword is relatively violent, while alchemy needs to be in a mild state all the time, so as not to burn the medicinal materials directly.
As a flame rose in the Dan furnace, Li Xiuping began to manipulate the flame, and when the flame was empty, the flame preheated the Dan furnace, and then put in the first medicinal herbs.
There is no need to pay too much attention to the materials used in sword casting, after all, all the materials of sword casting can withstand the burning of flames, and the longer it is burned, the purer the materials obtained, but refining medicine is different, it is necessary to figure out the medicinal effects of all medicinal materials, know which medicinal materials can withstand the calcination of flames for a long time, and which medicinal materials cannot withstand the calcination of flames for a long time, and then sort the medicinal materials to ensure that when they are finally fused, the weight of all medicinal materials can be equal.
Moreover, it is also necessary to invest in medicinal materials, not to wait for the refinement of the previous medicinal material to be completed before putting in the next medicinal material, but to select a suitable opportunity to ensure that all medicinal materials can be refined at the same time, and then fused.
Watching Li Xiuping constantly put one medicinal herb after another into the furnace, flowing smoothly and being extremely skilled, the two saints really had some expectations.
The Soul Melting Pill was of little use to them, but after all, it was an elixir, or a prescription that had been lost, what would it be like if it was really refined for Li Xiuping?
On the first day, Li Xiuping put in almost half of the medicinal materials, the second day he put in half of the remaining half of the medicinal materials, and on the third day, he also put half of the remaining medicinal materials, and it was not until the fifth day that all the medicinal materials were put into the furnace.
After all the medicinal materials were put in, Li Xiuping carried out refining for almost six days, and finally finished refining all the medicinal materials, and then there was no extra action, but took out some pills and took them, and then took the wine jug on his waist and poured a sip, and after a while, he continued to fuse the medicinal materials that had been refined.
The process of fusing medicinal materials can be countless times more difficult than refining, because at this time, it is necessary to accurately grasp the flame, and it is necessary to be extremely familiar with the medicinal properties of each medicinal material.
This is the first time Li Xiuping has refined the Soul Melting Pill, and many medicinal materials are the first time he has come into contact with them, and he really doesn't know much about their medicinal properties, which also increases the risk of failure.
It can be seen that alchemy is actually more difficult than forging swords, and perhaps because of this, alchemists are so precious, and high-level alchemists are even rarer.
Li Xiuping didn't dare to be careless, stared at the furnace with all his attention, carefully fused those medicinal materials slowly, and once something went wrong, he immediately used his divine sense to accurately control the flames and make up for his mistakes.
As a result, as time continued, Li Xiuping was soon sweating profusely and looked extremely difficult.
Seeing Li Xiuping's state, the sage of the incense burner mountain asked in a low voice, "Do you think he can really succeed?" ”
The saint of Drifting Snow City didn't answer, but said: "Relying on the foundation building period to cultivate is like refining immortal elixir, it is still a little too reluctant, if this is not careful, refining failure is a trivial matter, I am afraid that I will also suffer a lot of backlash." ”
The saint of the incense burner mountain nodded and said, "But he can always surprise people, and we can't help anyway, so let's wait and see." ”
The saint in Drifting Snow City nodded, and the two changed the topic and continued to chat......
Time passed day by day, and half a month passed quickly, and during this time, Li Xiuping was struggling to support, and many times he even needed to use the blue water unicorn to help cool down the overheated furnace.
Compared with the time when he was refining medicinal materials before, Li Xiuping was in a hurry, and he was simply struggling to support him.
Li Xiuping himself didn't expect that refining the Soul Melting Pill would be so difficult, it was completely like a battle, not only to master every detail change, but also to pay close attention to every change in timing, if it weren't for the fact that he was skilled enough to be at that fire attribute immortal treasure now, if it weren't for the help of that furnace ding, if it weren't for the blue water qilin, if it weren't for the willow tree in his body that had recovered a lot, I am afraid that he would have failed a long time ago.
However, although it is difficult, but fortunately, I have finally survived, and now all the medicinal materials have basically been fused, and the next thing is to continue to refine and refine the fused medicinal materials until they reach the extreme, and finally continue to condense them through the flames.
At this moment, while manipulating the flames, Li Xiuping took out the pill and swallowed it, then poured another sip of wine, and began to recover the loss in his body, and this process alone took three full days.
After the loss in his body had almost recovered, Li Xiuping continued to concentrate on the pill.
Time passed day by day, and seeing that the month was coming to an end, the furnace that had not been moving all this time began to react.
First, a rich aura appeared from the furnace ding, and then continued to spread out in all directions.
Where this spiritual power passed, the flowers and plants around them were actually dead trees in spring, and many of them even bloomed directly on the spot, and the entire valley suddenly bloomed.
Feeling this change, the saint in Drifting Snow City smiled and said, "This kid is really capable of creating miracles, and this can be practiced for him." ”
The saint of the incense burner mountain shook his head and said, "It's too early to draw conclusions now. ”
When he said this, he looked at Li Xiuping who was sitting on the ground, because Li Xiuping's state was not very good at the moment, and it seemed that it was difficult to support the pill until it was completed.
However, such a situation has also occurred before, but Li Xiuping was stunned and survived, so it is too early to make a conclusion now, whether it is a success or a failure, and no one dares to determine the final result until the last moment.
As these spiritual powers continued to overflow, Li Xiuping's left hand was actually quickly pinched, and then those constantly overflowing spiritual powers actually converged towards Li Xiuping's body, and then Li Xiuping's body was like a huge whirlpool, constantly absorbing those spiritual powers.
As these spiritual powers were continuously absorbed by Li Xiuping, Li Xiuping's feeling of weakness actually recovered quickly.
Seeing this scene, whether it was the saint in Drifting Snow City or the saint in Incense Burner Mountain, they all smiled bitterly.
While refining the pill, he absorbed the energy overflowing from the pill to recover the wear and tear of the body, and I am afraid that only Li Xiuping dared to do this.
In fact, Li Xiuping was able to do this, or it was related to the willow tree in his body, because of that willow tree, no matter what kind of energy he absorbed, after passing through that willow tree, it would be transformed into energy that was beneficial to Li Xiuping, which could provide Li Xiuping with supplements.
Time still passed bit by bit, silently.
The overflowing energy gradually diminished, and finally disappeared completely.
After all the energy was gone, an even more powerful energy erupted from the furnace ding, and at the same time, the runes on the furnace ding flickered, constantly suppressing the elixir in the furnace ding.
Li Xiuping's hands quickly sealed, and then a powerful soul power directly burst out, impacting on Li Xiuping's body.
Impacted by this force, Li Xiuping's face instantly turned as pale as paper, and a mouthful of blood spurted out on the spot.
Some people died, but not completely......
