Chapter 220: The Only Choice

The fake golden pill is not a real elixir, and the refining method is completely different from ordinary alchemy.

This reminded Xu Chen of the strange method used by the Yuqing Palace to enter the Dan with the formation method.

And this method is similar to the refining process of fake gold pills.

In other words, it is not a whim for the Yuqing Hall to enter the Dan with a formation, in fact, it also has a long origin and tradition, but it seems to be an incredible breakthrough and innovation in other sects.

Xu Chen held the Dan Furnace with both hands, while running the exercises to refine the Qi Gathering Pill, he continued to input the Yuan Qi Control Formation and Spiritual Fire into the Dan Furnace, slowly roasting the soul bead, and at the same time released a powerful divine sense to fall on the soul bead, trying to start carving the formation runes on the surface of the soul bead.

However, as soon as a few runes were hit, the soul beads began to vibrate continuously, and a cloud of cold black gas spurted out, and then began to get out of control, and a powerful soul power aura suddenly exploded after a while.

"Not good!"

Xu Chen's face shook, and in an instant, a stream of white gas poured into the Dan furnace, and at the same time, the lid of the furnace popped open, and the spiritual fire rushed out of the Dan furnace wrapped in black and white gas, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a misty multicolored glow burning wildly in the stone room, and the crackling sound was like an oil pot, bombarding the entire stone room with thousands of holes.

It took dozens of breaths for the black gas released by this soul bead to be completely neutralized by the white gas, and at the same time, a large amount of uncontrolled soul power was also released, and the entire stone chamber was already in a mess, as if it had been blown up by lightning.

Xu Chen sat on the ground with a grizzled face, his face twitching very ugly.

This failure shows that the soul bead is indeed not a demon pill, and it cannot succeed at all according to the method of refining the fake gold pill.

In the mortal realm, only demon beasts above the third order have demon pills in their bodies, and the main ingredient is the qi of the primordial spirit, while the main ingredient of the soul bead is soul power, and there is nothing in common between the two.

Therefore, he doesn't need to test the higher-level soul beads, and the bigger the soul beads, the greater the power of the explosion, and at the moment, with his strength, he will definitely not be able to control the soul beads of a third-order underworld beast, and if it gets out of control, not only will it destroy his only Dan furnace, but it is estimated that the lair of the wind clan will be completely destroyed.

Then there are only two options left, one is the soul bead of the octopus giant beast that has been transformed by white qi.

However, this bead with a white cloud pattern at the mouth of the bowl is essentially a soul bead, and a large number of ingredients in it are still soul power, so in Xu Chen's opinion, ninety percent will not succeed.

So for him, there was really only one choice left, and that was the huge pearl that he got from the mussel shell.

Xu Chen's vitality rolled all the soul beads into the Xuanjin bracelet, and held this peerless pearl the size of more than a foot in both hands.

The pearl glows white and illuminates the stone chamber clearly.

However, if you look closely, you will see that there is still a faint golden streamer circulating on the surface of the pearl.

If this is a soul bead, then the level of this mussel shell has reached at least the fourth order.

But judging from the light emitted by the pearl and the breath it released, it is not a soul bead, but full of life, with a desolate and long-lasting breath of life.

That old mussel doesn't know how many years it has lived in the underworld, don't say that this pearl, even if it is a mussel shell like a fine iron coffin, it needs thousands of years of growth and accumulation.

Xu Chen turned over and carefully observed this huge pearl, examined it for a long time like a refining weapon, and after slowly regulating his breath and stabilizing his mind, he threw this big pearl into the Dan furnace.

Soon the raging spiritual fire began to burn again, and in the Dan furnace, the big beads rolled and rotated slightly in the light and shadow of the criss-crossing formation, releasing a bright light under the roasting of the spiritual fire.

Although this was the only choice, Xu Chen was not sure at all.

Because he didn't feel any aura from this big pearl.

As for the Dan Furnace Alchemy, the elixir that needs to be refined can only be refined through the Five Elements Formation and Spiritual Fire, removing the impurities in it, leaving behind the pure Five Elements Spiritual Qi Essence.

Therefore, even if there was a method for refining the fake golden pill, Xu Chen could only experiment with an ingredient that was almost completely dependent on luck.

If he succeeded, he would still have a chance to recover his cultivation ability, and he would not be trapped here forever.

But if he fails, then he will no longer have any way to recover his dantian, so he can only wait here to die.

Even if he can use the Divine Pattern Combat Technique, because he does not have the bloodline of the Wind Clan, his strength will stop, and at most he will exert a strength equivalent to the early stage of the Danyuan Realm.

The only thing that made him feel at ease was that even if he failed this time, the existence of the blue light treasure bottle could allow him to continue refining the Xuanshui Youlian to maintain the strengthening and repair of the body by white qi, even if there was no dantian, his meridians would be in a complete and normal state for a long time, and there might be another opportunity in the future, but this chance was extremely slim, almost none.

Outside the stone room, Feng Feiyi was already dressed and sitting cross-legged in the doorway.

There was a violent shock and roar in the stone room, and she nervously turned to look at the closed stone door, but she still couldn't help but ask.

Xu Chen often stayed in the stone room for a long time, and often made all kinds of large and small vibrations and sounds, although this time the vibration was very violent, almost the entire cave shook slightly, but as it soon became quiet, it seemed that everything changed as before.

At this time, while she was concerned about Xu Chen's emotional changes before and after, she was also constantly feeling the changes in herself.

She didn't know why, she suddenly felt an incomparable sense of awe and intimacy towards Xu Chen, as if she was in awe of the ancestors, she just wanted to prostrate in front of him and accept his guidance, and she couldn't even refuse his words and deeds.

What also surprised her was that she had seen a strange blue ten-character inscription mark on her brow through the power of her soul.

She knew that this was the clan pattern that Xu Chen had activated for her.

It's just that the shape and color of this clan crest are different from the clan crests in the legends of all the tribes in the Underworld, and it is even more incompatible with the Wind Clan, without the slightest resemblance.

In other words, she is no longer a true Wind Clan, but another tribal bloodline.

But which tribe does this crest belong to?

Maybe she can't know until Xu Chen comes out.

In addition, she is also constantly perceiving the breath of the Divine Pattern, but unfortunately she has not gained anything from beginning to end, and the Divine Pattern is as if it does not exist at all.

However, no matter what the clan pattern is, once the clan pattern appears, it means that the ancient bloodline has been revived, and perhaps as long as you are pious and brave enough, you will eventually feel your own divine pattern combat skills.

Before you know it, time is like a black fog flowing in this dark world, and you don't know how long it has passed.

The Wind Clan people came and went to the outside of the stone to investigate, and the five tribes who came were also anxious.

Feng Feiyi kept getting up outside the stone and left to eat, drink, and Lazar returned to guard.

The heavy stone gate was like a seal, without the slightest movement.

In the stone room, Xu Chen sat in front of the blazing Dan furnace, his eyes closed tightly and his hands hugged, as if the stone carving had not shaken for a long time.

There were five empty jade bottles containing elixirs rolling down the ground.

After losing the vitality of the dantian storage, in order to refine this fake golden pill, he had to rely on constantly knocking the spirit pill to maintain the alchemy process.

Five jade bottles are at least fifty Qi Gathering Pills.

If he was called an ordinary True Yuan Realm powerhouse, it would generally be impossible to prepare so many Qi replenishing elixirs on his body.

But Xu Chen, as the only alchemist in Taiyuan Sect, not only did he know how to refine, but he also robbed some in the Yuqing Hall at the beginning, all of which were stored in the storage bracelets, plus there were a lot of elixirs, these five bottles were only one-third of all his reserves.

Even so, Xu Chen's distressed heart was dripping blood, but there was no way but he could only grit his teeth and continue to persevere.

Compared to the consumption of the elixir, the fake golden pill being refined in the Dan furnace was his greatest hope.

Fortunately, in his opinion, from the beginning to the present, the refining has been smooth sailing.

He had continuously broken into hundreds of runes and formations into the pearls, completing two layers of confinement formations.

At present, the big pearl looks slightly smaller, and the light and breath have also changed slightly, and the surface consciousness can clearly see the dense criss-crossing lines and colorful rune light and shadow flickering, coupled with the pale golden light flowing on the surface of the pearl itself, making the whole pearl look like an incomparably exquisite magic weapon, suspended in the Dan furnace and shining.

In fact, by now, Xu Chen was roughly convinced that this pearl should be the inner dan of the big clam shell.

However, the clam shell is a genuine underworld beast, not a demon beast in the mortal world, even if a fake golden pill is successfully refined, it is still unknown whether it can be used.

Although Xu Chen was stable on the surface, and even felt more and more happy in the refining process of the fake golden pill, he was still nervous and nervous in his heart.

After all, if he doesn't succeed this time, his hope will be even more slim.

Moreover, he consumed too much Qi Gathering Pill this time, and by the time the refining was completed, he would have to consume at least half of his reserves, and if there was no effect, all the consumption would be in vain.
