Two hundred catties of purple gold, Li Yu exchanged two Zhuji Dan from the sect, plus two given to him by Jiang Li, and one given to him by Patriarch Xuanzhen, Li Yu already has five Zhuji Dan, and the five spiritual veins can average to one.

However, Tsukidan is not like Tongmai Dan, after taking it, it is not 100% Tsukujidan, and five Tsukidan pills may not be enough.

Therefore, the business with Xu Yitian Qi has to continue.

Even if Li Yu builds the foundation, there is Zhou Zixuan, and Ling'er will be added later, and the more the foundation is built, the better.

Although he had already stored five Zhuji Dan, Li Yu was not in a hurry to take it, his mana had not yet been compressed to the limit, and if someone helped him collect purple gold, he could practice with peace of mind.

Just when Li Yu was concentrating on cultivation, tens of thousands of miles away, in a certain cave secret realm that belonged to several sects of the Demon Dao.

Xu Yi and one of his spirit ghosts were fighting a red-haired young man.

Not long ago, he found a jade spirit fruit tree in a remote mountain cliff in this secret realm, and there were five ripe jade spirit fruits on the tree, which was originally a big harvest, but when he was picking, he was seen by this guy from the Demon Flame Gate.

The two have been fighting for a long time, but they can't help each other.

Although Xu Yi had spirit ghosts, the red-haired young man's body was surrounded by countless fire crows, which were all red and full of flames, just to restrain the spirit ghosts.

The red-haired young man looked at Xu Yi and sneered: "The surname is Xu, your spirit ghost is useless to me, if you know each other, hurry up and hand over those jade spirit fruits, otherwise, don't blame me for being unkind......"

Xu Yi was quite helpless, if his five spirit ghosts were still there, and he set up the five ghost refining array, this guy from the Demon Flame Gate would not dare to be so arrogant at all.

It's a pity that he only has one spirit ghost left, and his strength has been greatly weakened, so he can only fight with this person from the Demon Flame Gate, and if he continues like this, the outcome is still unknown.

Xu Yi also replied unceremoniously: "The Jade Spirit Fruit is here, you have the ability, you can get it yourself......"

As soon as his words fell, a blazing rain of fire fell above his head, and Xu Yi held up a hemispherical water curtain to block all these fire rains, and at the same time, the red-haired man's hand condensed into a flame spear and stabbed at his water curtain.

Laugh at......

The flame and the water curtain collided, making a piercing sound, and the two attacked and defended, and in a short time, the flame and the water curtain actually stalemate.

In this way, whoever wins and who loses depends on whose mana is exhausted first.

However, their strength is comparable, they are all at the peak of dual spirit vein qi refining, and under normal circumstances, the mana will be exhausted at the same time.

Continued to cast spells, extremely consuming mana, and soon, the water curtain became thinner and thinner, but the flames became weaker and weaker.

The red-haired young man took out a Qi Rejuvenation Pill and threw it into his mouth, most of his mana was instantly restored, although the alchemy of the Demon Flame Gate could not be compared with the righteous path Kunlun, but it was also the best demon path, Xu Yi, a fool, was actually stupid enough to fight with him for mana......

But as soon as this thought of his mind arose, he saw Xu Yi also take out a pill and throw it into his mouth, I don't know if he was dazzled, he actually saw that Xu Yi's pill had five pill patterns......

It must have been that he was dazzled, so he refined the elixir refined by the Soul Sect, and the dog shook his head when he saw it, and none of them in the whole sect could find a single one that could refine the best elixir.

The red-haired young man thought so in his heart, but as time passed, Xu Yi's water curtain was still stable, but the fire of his mana began to slowly become smaller, this was because his mana was about to run out.

The red-haired young man took out a Qi Rejuvenation Pill again and threw it into his mouth, but the next moment, Xu Yi also took out a pill, this time, the red-haired young man saw very clearly, the pill in Xu Yi's hand had five Dan lines......

The mana of the best elixir is at least thirty percent more than his top-grade elixir!

The red-haired young man gritted his teeth and insisted, "I don't believe it, you still have the best elixir!" ”

Xu Yi smiled slightly and said, "Not much, not much, just more than a hundred, if you want to consume it, I can continue to consume it with you." ”

Xu Yi's heart was extremely happy.

At this moment, he finally realized Li Yu's happiness.

In the case of similar mana, if there is an elixir, you can do whatever you want.

There were more than a hundred top-grade Qi Rejuvenation Pills, of course the red-haired young man from the Demon Flame Gate didn't believe it, but when he saw that he was taking one pill, Xu Yi was taking one pill, and each of them had five pill lines, his heart began to feel bottomless......

Xu Yi, where did he get so many top-notch pills?

There is only one Qi Returning Pill left in his reserve, and after using it, the mana will be consumed again, and there will be no way to replenish it, he doesn't dare to bet on whether Xu Yi still has the Returning Qi Pill, after taking the last pill, he didn't choose to continue to consume it with Xu Yi, but collected the flames in an instant, turned into a streamer, and fled away......

Leaving only a roar that echoed through the void:

"The surname is Xu, you wait for me!"

The red-haired young man fled, Xu Yi unhurriedly collected the mana, collected a catty of purple gold from the sect, Li Yu gave him two top-grade Huiqi Pills, he gave one to the disciples of the sect, every ten catties of Zijin, Li Yu also gave him one more, and in one transaction, he harvested more than a hundred top-grade Huiqi Pills, which was not bad at all......

The Qi Returning Pill in the Qi Refining Period, he doesn't plan to ask for it anymore, these 100 are enough for him to use the foundation building, I don't know if these four Jade Spirit Fruits can be exchanged for the Qi Returning Qi Pill in the Foundation Building Period from Li Yu, he has to prepare some for the future......

……

Half a month has passed quietly, and in this half month, Li Yu's progress in cultivation is not bad, and he can already compress the mana of the entire spiritual vein of the fire spirit vein into fifteen acupuncture points.

According to what Patriarch Xuanzhen said, if he compresses five more acupuncture points, he can try to take Zhuji Dan Zhuji.

Li Yu didn't practice today, he left Ziyun Peak, planning to participate in the second-grade alchemy master assessment.

Li Yu had tried the Tongmai Pill once before, but it took three parts of spiritual liquid to refine only one low-grade pill.

Now that his mana is several layers deeper than before, and it is more condensed, the Dan Furnace in his body has absorbed a lot of soul power, and his ability is also more powerful, Li Yu feels that he should be able to at least refine the top-grade Tongmai Pill.

After being promoted to a second-grade alchemist, you can get better treatment, of course, the sooner you are promoted, the better, and the sect can also exchange Tongmai Dan for Tuomai Dan, although it is not cost-effective, but in order to practice, he can only suffer this loss.

Not long after, Li Yu came to Lingyun Peak again.

Seeing Li Yu, a deacon disciple greeted him warmly and asked, "Senior Brother Li, are you here to receive the elixir for next month?" ”

Li Yu smiled and said, "I didn't receive the elixir this time, I came to conduct the second-grade alchemist assessment." ”

The disciple was stunned for a moment and asked, "You have already built the foundation?" ”

Li Yu shook his head and said, "Not yet, but I am still sure of refining the second-grade pill." ”

This deacon disciple brought Li Yu into an empty hall, not the place where he was promoted to a first-grade alchemist last time, the area of this hall was slightly smaller, and there was no one in it.

He waited for half an hour before the deacon disciple led a middle-aged man with three Dan patterns embroidered on his chest and slowly walked into the main hall.

The third-grade alchemist of the sect, Li Yu didn't know a few, he happened to know this middle-aged man, and after the end of the first-grade alchemist competition, he led Li Yu to Yuxu Peak to meet the real person in charge.

Li Yu remembered that his name was Wang Hua.

For the assessment of a second-grade alchemist, a third-grade alchemist must be by his side.

Li Yu arched his hand at him and said, "I've seen Elder Wang. ”

Wang Hua looked at him and said with some pity: "It's really a pity about Elder Zhao's matter. ”

Li Yu also sighed with emotion: "The immortal road is difficult, everything is fate. ”

Wang Hua waved his hand and said, "Don't mention this sad matter, I heard the deacon disciple say that you want to take the second-grade alchemist assessment, but you haven't built a foundation yet......"

Li Yu asked, "If you don't have a foundation, can't you participate in the second-grade alchemist assessment?" ”

Wang Hua shook his head and said, "Not really, it's just that there is no foundation, the mana is not condensed and strong enough, and the temperature of the Danhuo is not enough, but if it is you, it is possible, I can make an exception for you, have you thought about which three second-order pills to refine?" ”

Li Yu had thought about these things before he came, and said, "Second-Order Hui Qi Pill, Qi Gathering Pill and Tongmai Pill. ”

Huiqi Pill is just a general term, not specifically referring to a certain grade, taken during the Qi refining period, the materials used are relatively ordinary, it is a first-order pill, and if it is taken during the foundation building period, high-level materials are used, so it is naturally a second-order pill.

As for the Qi Gathering Pill and the Tongmai Pill, although it is a little more difficult to refine, it is the best to sell, and it is also the most useful, these three pills, Li Yu has all been deeply considered.

It's okay to return to the Qi Pill, the Qi Gathering Pill and the Tongmai Pill, among the second-order pills, are also difficult to refine, especially the Tongmai Pill, the success rate of many alchemists who have been promoted to the second grade for many years is not high, Wang Hua asked uncertainly: "Are you sure to choose the Qi Gathering Pill and the Tongmai Pill?" ”

Li Yu nodded and said, "Sure." ”

Since this is the case, Wang Hua will no longer say anything.

The materials of the second-order pill are much more precious than the first-order pill, and every time you participate in the assessment, you need to pay a fee of one thousand spirit coins.

After Li Yu paid the spirit coin, the deacon disciple took him to a stone room and asked him to choose the herbs needed for alchemy, Li Yu first refined the second-order Huiqi Pill, the main material of the second-order elixir, at least one of which was the third-order elixir, he couldn't touch it directly with his hands, and he couldn't take the little secretary with the assessment, so he wore a pair of silver gloves on his hands.

This glove was a protective magic weapon he bought in a shop in Zixiao Peak, and it was used by Li Yu to isolate the aura of medicinal herbs and avoid direct contact with them, so as not to be directly sucked away by the Nadan furnace.

This kind of behavior, in the eyes of Wang Hua and the deacon disciple, has another meaning.

No wonder the best rate of other people's alchemy is so high, in order to ensure that the materials are not polluted, they are so thoughtful, most alchemists, when alchemy, do not pay attention to these details.

Li Yu skillfully extracted and purified the liquid, added one by one material in order, raised the Danhuo, and began to refine.

Wang Hua looked at Li Yu's condensed mana fire, the heart path was worthy of being the son of the Dan Dao of the five spirit veins, although the condensation level of the Dan fire was not as good as the foundation building period, but with his superb Dan Dao talent, it was enough to refine the second-order pill.

The Huiqi Pill is the most basic second-order pill, and it is not very difficult, three hours later, Li Yu relied on his own ability to refine, three materials, and two high-grade pills in one furnace.

Even Wang Hua, who is a third-grade alchemist, also looks at it differently, although he uses the amount of three materials, but the second-order alchemy refining is extremely difficult, and there will be losses in the process.

Even if it was Wang Hua himself, refining the second-order Hui Qi Pill, he could only produce two stable, which was nothing more than higher quality than Li Yu, and he could often refine super grades.

As for producing three pieces in one furnace, it is required not to waste a little material, which has perfect requirements for any step of refining, and the third-grade alchemists can't do it, only a few fourth-grade grandmasters of the sect have this ability.

Wang Hua looked at Li Yu and said, "You have refined the Qi Returning Pill very well, the next furnace of pills, you can choose to come again tomorrow, or two days later, not more than three days at most." ”

Refining second-order pills is extremely laborious, and there is no way to refine them one furnace after another, so the time limit for the assessment of second-order alchemists is also relatively generous.

Li Yu was indeed a little tired at this moment, and said, "Then I'll come back in two days." ”

His choice was not what Wang Hua expected, with the strength of not building a foundation, he could refine a second-order elixir, and it took a few days in the history of the sect to do it, but after refining, he could open the second furnace without resting, and there was not a single one, if Li Yu didn't even need to rest, it would be too exaggerated, and everyone had to wonder if he had any big secrets......

Li Yu's exhaustion this time was not pretended, he had not yet built a foundation, refining the second-order elixir, it was not easy, after returning to Ziyun Peak, he slept for two days, nourished his spirit, and his mana also recovered to the peak, before he came to Lingyun Peak again for the second assessment.

For this furnace, he chose the Qi Gathering Pill.

For the formal disciples of Kunlun who have successfully gathered qi, the Qi Gathering Pill has no effect, it is harmful and useless to take it, and it will slow down the cultivation speed because of the more rushed spiritual veins, but for those immortal cultivators in the Qi Induction Period who have not yet gathered Qi, a Qi Gathering Pill can allow them to step into the gate of the Immortal Dao, and many disciples and elders of the sect have families outside, and there is a great demand for the Qi Gathering Pill.

When refining the Qi Gathering Pill, Li Yu also did not have custody, and four hours later, he refined a super grade Qi Gathering Pill.

Wang Hua stood beside the Dan furnace and nodded slightly, this kind of ability is already considered upstream among the second-grade alchemists.

Before the third assessment, Li Yu chose to rest for three days.

The spirit and mana were restored to the peak again, and he came to Lingyun Peak again, this is the last of the second-grade alchemist assessment, if he can successfully pass, he can be promoted to the second-grade alchemist, enjoy the monthly subsidy of 10,000 spirit coins from the sect, and can also change to a larger courtyard.

Tongmai Dan, Li Yu had practiced it once before, but the effect was not very good, this assessment, he was quite confident, and even worried that after the trusteeship, the quality of the pill refined was too high, and he just entered the state of semi-trusteeship.

This is a new skill unlocked by Li Yu with the repair of the Dan Furnace.

After returning from the Thousand Poison Cave, even if he was fully managed, Li Yu would not fall into a trance, but would be able to retain a part of his consciousness, so that he could make trouble when the Dan Furnace manipulated him to refine the pill, reducing the quality of the refining pill.

The sect's requirement is to refine one pill with three materials, if he refines three, the sect will increase its requirements for him, and what will be lost is Li Yu's own interests.

This Tongmai Pill, Li Yu has been refining for five hours.

In the process of refining, he also took two Hui Qi Pills to barely maintain the continuation of the mana fire.

Five hours later, Li Yu extinguished the flames, opened the Dan furnace, and took out a Tongmai Dan with three Dan patterns from it, he was a little dissatisfied, and sighed: "It's just a top-grade ......."

Wang Hua said on the side: "The top-grade Tongmai Dan is already very remarkable, there are eighty percent of the second-grade alchemists, and they can't refine the top-grade Tongmai Dan, you have just been promoted to the second-grade alchemist, and you are the leader in the second-grade alchemists of the sect, with your current Dan Dao level, among all the alchemists in the sect, you can steadily rank in the top 100, and after you build the foundation, I am afraid that there are only alchemists above the third grade who are stronger than you......"

In the three assessments, Li Yu completed the task at a super level and was successfully promoted to a second-grade alchemist.

Soon, the deacon disciple sent Li Yu a new alchemist robe, and the position of the chest of the robe changed from one to two.

Li Yu asked Wang Huadao, "Elder Wang, I can now receive the materials for the second-order elixir, right?" ”

Wang Hua nodded and said, "Of course, what elixir do you want to refine?" ”

Li Yu said: "Let's return the Qi Pill, the Qi Gathering Pill and the Tongmai Pill." ”

Wang Hua smiled and said, "It's okay to return to the Qi Pill and gather the Qi Pill, but the materials for the Tongmai Pill are not available here." ”

Li Yu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why?" ”

Wang Hua explained: "The main material of the Tongmai Dan, the Jade Spirit Fruit, is uniformly distributed by the sect, and it will only be distributed to the Dan Dao Peaks at the beginning of the month, and it will be refined by the Dan Dao Peaks, only by joining the Dan Dao Everest, can you have the opportunity to refine the Tongmai Dan, then again, Li Yu, do you want to join my Qinghua Peak, I can let you refine the three furnaces of the Tongmai Pill every month......"

Only then did Li Yu understand why few of the second-grade alchemists in the sect had set up their own doors, and basically all of them had joined a certain peak of the Dan Dao.

If an alchemist wants to improve the level of the Dan Dao, he must go through the practice of countless materials, and the peaks of the Dan Dao have monopolized these high-level elixirs, and the second-grade alchemists must join them if they want to improve.

This means that even if you become a second-grade alchemist, you can't directly obtain the Tongmai Dan materials.

Li Yu didn't directly agree to Wang Hua, and said, "Thank you Elder Wang for your kindness, I'll think about it again......"

Wang Hua didn't say anything, after all, with Li Yu's fame, after being promoted to a second-grade alchemist, the other peaks of the Dan Dao would also send him an invitation, and in the end, it would depend on his own choice.

Leaving from Lingyun Peak, Li Yu returned directly to Ziyun Peak.

After being promoted to a second-grade alchemist, he could apply to the sect for a larger mansion, but Li Yu did not use this permission, and the small courtyard of Ziyun Peak was enough for two people and one tiger, and the space was smaller, making it more warm.

I thought that after being promoted to a second-grade alchemist, I would be able to help Zhou Zixuan and even Ling'er build a foundation earlier, but I didn't take into account the monopoly of the elixir.

Tongmai Dan, an important pill, is 100% monopolized by the Dan Dao Peaks, and only by joining them can second-grade alchemists get the opportunity to refine and alchemy for others, not only is there no remuneration, but they also have to be grateful to others.

After all, if the Dan Dao Peaks didn't give them a chance, they wouldn't have the materials to practice at all, and the Dan Dao level wouldn't be able to improve.

But isn't that a kneeling begging for food?

The ones who are really rich are those third-grade and fourth-grade alchemists, and the second-grade alchemists are very powerful in the outer sects, and in Kunlun, they are just other people's workers.

With the existence of the Dan Furnace, Li Yu didn't need to practice at all, but he made his own alchemy, and the extra pills could be given to Zhou Zixuan and Ling'er, if he really couldn't get the materials, he would definitely have to add a certain peak in the end.

However, he is not in a hurry, he has not yet built a foundation, and after building a foundation, the quality of refining pills can also be greatly improved, and when the time comes, he will also be able to get more chips.

……

Not long after Li Yu left Lingyun Peak, the news that he had been successfully promoted to a second-grade alchemist spread in Kunlun.

With the cultivation of the Qi refining period, refining the second-order elixir, in the history of Kunlun, not no one has done it, but it is very rare, and all of them are famous Dan Dao masters.

When the news reached Danding Peak, those Dan Dao apprentices who had entered with Li Yu seemed very excited, Li Yu who walked out of Danding Peak was their pride, and it was also worth them to brag about knowing such a genius alchemist.

When Han Tiancheng learned the news, his heart was complicated.

When Li Yu was not yet born, he was a first-class alchemist.

When Li Yu entered Kunlun and became an apprentice of Dan Dao, he was a good product.

When Li Yu was promoted to the first grade, he was still the first grade.

Now that Li Yu has been promoted to a second-grade alchemist, he is still a first-grade alchemist, if he is not familiar with Li Yu's alchemist, it would be fine, but he has watched Li Yu come step by step from a Dan Dao apprentice, this huge psychological gap is difficult to describe in words.

This also dealt a huge blow to his mentality.

Once a crack appears in the Dao heart of an immortal cultivator, it is only a matter of an instant to collapse.

He, who was refining the Hui Qi Pill, heard the news, his mind exploded, and he suddenly collected the Danhuo, and said angrily: "Don't refine, refine the Dan of a fart, from today onwards, the old man will turn to the Fa to cultivate, the garbage Dan Dao, and the dogs will not cultivate!" ”

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

It's not that he is angry with Li Yu, but because he was angry with his choice back then, alchemy is to burn himself, illuminate others, and delay his own cultivation, not to mention, if he can achieve something in this way, this life is worth it, but he has assessed the second-grade alchemist several times, but he has long had doubts about this way.

Li Yu's promotion to a second-grade alchemist became the last straw that crushed him.

At this moment, Han Tiancheng naturally didn't know, because of his move, a hundred years later, Kunlun would have one less second-grade alchemist, but one more Jindan elder......
