Chapter 18: The Study of the Method of Refining the Gods

Qingyun Sect, Yunyang Peak, in the cave.

Although he is in charge of the work of the medicine garden, the delivery of medicinal materials is once every other month for three months, and although there are requirements to be on the post at other times, there is no monk to check the post, so you know, touch the fish.

'These days, it's hard to find a job that is full of oil and water, and it's not easy to find it......

Lin Chen sighed with emotion, and then focused his attention on the front of him.

In front of him, the bronze tripod was placed in the center of the room, and next to the bronze tripod was a miniature formation, and three lower grade spirit stones were placed at the junction of several lines.

This is a kind of fire control array recorded in the "Alchemy Basics", which can stimulate the spiritual power in the spirit stone through a special method and turn it into a high-temperature flame, which can shorten the time required for alchemy, and the flame burning of the magic circle is very stable, which helps to improve the success rate of alchemy.

Although Lin Chen is not an alchemy, he is also refining elixir, and using flame as one of the key factors for success or not, the importance of which does not need to be said.

Although he can use his True Qi to stimulate the flames, the consumption is too large and unstable, which has a certain impact on the success rate.

In fact, whether it is an alchemist or an alchemist, they all use earth fire to alchemize. Ground fire is a good choice because it is warmer, more stable, and extremely durable.

But Lin Chen estimated the spirit stones in his wallet, and suddenly felt that using the formation method to refine medicine was also a good choice.

"Thousands of spirit stones have just burned down......" Lin Chen's face twitched.

Even though he has reduced all kinds of waste as much as possible, the consumption is still staggering.

"Scientific research is really costly...... Lin Chen couldn't help but grit his teeth.

He is only replacing and changing the basic prescriptions.

After only experimenting dozens of times, he burned at least two thousand spirit stones, which was still based on the fact that he secretly deducted a lot of medicinal materials from the Elixir Garden, otherwise the consumption would be even more amazing.

In Lin Chen's previous life, he heard that the science laboratory was very money-burning, and he thought that there was something tricky, but now it seems that he misunderstood.

Lin Chen shook his head, removing the chaotic thoughts from his mind and focusing his attention on the present.

Ignition, preheating, elixir, extraction, fusion of essence...... Soon, a familiar medicinal fragrance emanated from the bronze tripod.

It's done?

There was no sadness or joy on Lin Chen's face, and the movements in his hands were not slow at all. However, just as he was about to take the next step, the aroma of the medicine changed, giving off a burnt smell.

Failed again, it seems that the fire is over...... It's okay, it's only close to Bailing Stone, and what Lao Tzu has is money. ’

Lin Chen's face was calm, but the muscles in his hands suddenly rose.

Ignition, preheating, elixir, extraction, fusion of essence...... Xiao Ding exuded a familiar medicinal fragrance again.

However, after a while, Lin Chen numbly poured out the residue of the medicinal herbs in the ding.

'Continue ......'

The third time he refined, he failed. The fourth time of refining medicine, it was successful. Fifth ......

Three quarters of an hour later, Lin Chen's pale face was slightly haggard, and his long hair was scattered on his shoulders, but his eyes were extremely bright, and his dark pupils were deep and distant.

The medicinal powder that was refined was mixed by Lin Chen and the spiritual liquid, and it was made into a stick of incense, which was placed in front of him.

'The corrected version of the 3.0 of the soul nourishing incense has finally become a ......'

Even Lin Chen's Gujing Wubo's face rarely showed a smile.

In this world, if the body is the treasure boat that crosses the world, then the soul is the foundation of becoming an immortal!

A soul that is strong enough can not only speed up the cultivation rate and make up for the lack of innate qualifications, but also have all kinds of unpredictable powers.

There are even rumors that in ancient times, there were high-level monks who specialized in the soul, abandoning their physical bodies and living forever in the world as [Yuan Shen], who could not only swim in the twilight of the North Sea, but also have all kinds of magical powers that make people fearful, such as the soul snatching, calling for fame and falling off the horse, and the seven arrows of the nail head.

Even in the immortal cultivation realm, where the way of qi cultivation is prevalent today, the soul is also a very important existence.

Whether it is the Jindan period of "gathering three flowers on the top, Jindan is born from this time", or the incarnation period of "inner thoughts are not germinating, external thoughts are not entering, I am alone, there is no thought, there is no awareness, I see that the five aggregates are empty, the four bodies are false, and I have a true self", the soul is closely related to it, and it can even be said to be the foundation of everything!

However, in this Lingnan Immortal Cultivation Realm, where resources are scarce and can only give birth to golden pills, the exercises and pills for increasing the soul can be said to be very precious.

As far as Lin Chen knew, he had never heard of the cultivation of the soul. Although he judged that the Qingyun Sect should have it, it was not something that his level could touch after all.

As for the elixir for increasing the soul, as far as he knew, in the Qi cultivation period, there was only one kind of [Soul Nourishing Pill], and it was still priceless and unmarketable, even if he could afford it, he couldn't find a way!

However, Lin Chen's various studies on cultivating immortals all pointed out the importance of the soul in cultivation.

If he neglected it for a while and lagged behind the other monks in this regard, then one step behind would one day affect his immortal path.

It was this problem that once caused trouble to Lin Chen.

After slaughtering nearly a hundred evil cultivators, touching the corpses of a large number of monks, and visiting the Taobao streets of the four markets of Qingyun Sect, but finding nothing, Lin Chen finally found that he really did not have the treatment of the protagonist.

After thinking about it for a long time, Lin Chen felt that it was better to make it himself than to find it by his own luck!

And soul nourishing incense is one of the results of Lin Chen's research on divine souls.

Lin Chen found that the god-nourishing medicine in the mortal world worked on mortals, so he had a whim, if the ordinary medicinal materials in the world's god-nourishing medicine prescription were replaced with elixir, would it have an effect on the monks?

Originally, Lin Chen felt that other monks would not think of such a simple method, but now, there was no such situation in the immortal cultivation world, and there might be some kind of problem.

However, mortals can use this prescription to dispense medicine to nourish their spirits, and there is no reason to change it to a stronger elixir that will not work on cultivators.

After hesitating for a while, Lin Chen felt that after all, the experiment still revealed the true knowledge, so he got started directly.

So it took a lot of time to conduct research and development, experiments, and finally, the first version of the soul nourishing incense was successfully baked.

After experiments, its effect was only one-thousandth of the efficacy of the Qi Refining Period Pill Soul Nourishing Pill, and without comparative observation experiments, it was impossible to see the subtle differences at all.

Lin Chen guessed that this imperceptible subtle medicinal effect should be the reason why the monk failed to insist on continuing to improve the mortal medicine.

But for him, no matter how weak the effect of the medicine is, as long as it is useful, not to mention, it can be used in large quantities.

Lin Chen ordered at least nine soul-nourishing incense sticks every day, and its effect was comparable to one percent of the medicinal effect of the soul-nourishing pill.

Over time, Lin Chen is equivalent to taking a Soul Nourishing Pill every three months!

It seems to be quite down-and-out, and you can only take one every three months, but in the Lingnan Immortal Cultivation Realm, where there are few resources for cultivating immortals, the elixirs that can increase the soul can be said to be rare.

can take one every three months, this is already the treatment of the core disciples of the sect and the descendants of those big families.

Not to mention, Lin Chen can also upgrade the Soul Nourishing Incense to have a stronger medicinal effect.

The 2.0 version of the Soul Nourishing Incense is an advanced version developed by Lin Chen to find the prescriptions that need various precious medicinal materials in the mortal world, and then replace them with various spiritual objects!

However, just as taking the same drug for a long time will produce resistance, even if Lin Chen made it into a soul-nourishing incense and avoided taking it directly, it still gradually developed resistance in the body, resulting in a complete loss of effect in the back.

Therefore, Lin Chen had to continue to develop a new generation of soul-nourishing incense. Although the process is very troublesome, the effect is very significant.

With the help of the Soul Nourishing Incense, Lin Chen's soul now far surpassed that of a cultivator of the same level.

Not only that, Lin Chen also developed a set of simple methods for refining gods.

Although Lin Chen didn't know what the essence of the soul was. But through observation and research, he found that the soul, like the body, will become stronger if you exercise more.

Based on this concept, referring to the Taoist method of the previous life, after exhausting one's soul and exhaustion, calm down and meditate to nourish one's mind.

At this time, just like replenishing nutrition in time after physical exercise, Lin Chen lit the soul nourishing incense to nourish his soul, and with the blessing of these two, he made rapid progress in his soul.

And Lin Chen combined this simple method of refining gods with the production method of soul nourishing incense, and created the only method of refining gods on the face of Qingyun Sect that he knew so far, one of the three major forces in the Lingnan Immortal Cultivation Realm-

[Lingxiang Soul Sutra]!

Thinking of this, Lin Chen couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

If you don't have something, you can create it yourself, that's what you can do!

The [Lingxiang Soul Nourishing Sutra] is a part of the three paths of his essence and spirit, which belongs to the way of the gods [Cultivating the Spirit].

It is also his own method of refining gods developed by him with existing resources in the absence of peerless exercises and immortal elixirs in the past ten years.

This method is extremely precious. Lin Chen was sure that once he exposed any bit of information related to this method, it would definitely cause a monstrous wave in the Lingnan Immortal Cultivation Realm, and even the high-ranking Jindan Zhenren would personally fight for it.

It may not be effective for high-level monks, but compared with the Soul Nourishing Pill, it has a lower cost and security, which can greatly change the strength and potential of a low-level monk, thus profoundly affecting the situation of the entire Lingnan.

'Alas, it's a pity, if I had enough strength, I could have taken on the backlash of exposing this scripture, and thus absorbed enough benefits......

People are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being strong. Lin Chen's exposure of this scripture will definitely push him to the forefront and cause a lot of trouble.

Even though the Qingyun Sect would try its best to protect him, Lin Chen really didn't want to feel the feeling of handing over his fate to others.

Besides, even within the Qingyun Sect, it is not necessarily safe.

If he turns in this scripture, he will definitely receive a rich reward, but he doesn't have the strength to match it, how can he keep it?

Not to mention, in this immortal cultivation world, once you have huge interests that are not in line with your own strength, it is extremely easy to attract death!

"Forget it, don't even think about these things until your strength is strong enough...... Lin Chen shook his head, then looked at the soul nourishing incense on the table, and fell into deep thought.

This corrected version of Soul Nourishing Incense 3.0 has just been developed, and it still needs to be tested to determine its efficacy and whether there are hidden dangers. Also, about the experiment of the soul in the breakthrough of the foundation building period......

As if thinking of something, Lin Chen's eyes moved slightly.

He originally thought that his soul should far surpass others in his two lives, and his cultivation efficiency should be higher, but in reality, there was no difference between his cultivation speed and talent of those who were the same.

From this point of view, the soul in this life is not only the consciousness and memories recorded in previous lives, but also other things.

And, interestingly, in previous lives, Taoists were called "souls" and "divine souls", and "soul" is a Western term, but in this life it is called "soul......

Combined with the law of aura that everything in the world is composed of aura, the word soul is simply called different, or the spirit of the soul, which refers to...... Nimbus? ’
