Chapter 123, the first exploration of the Xuanhuo Ding
However, not seeing it doesn't mean that Xiao Mo doesn't have basic discrimination ability.
This green spirit grass has a peculiar appearance, only one leaf, the blade is like a sword, and there are strong aura fluctuations flowing on it, even if it is separated by a layer of jade box, Xiao Mo can feel it clearly.
To have such a strong aura fluctuation of the spirit grass, Xiao Mo is sure that it is by no means comparable to ordinary medicinal herbs, but I am afraid that it is not only the gray level, at least the green level, and even in the green level, it is also the best.
"I'm afraid it's a green-level top-level spirit grass, and it's very unlikely, close to the yellow-order. Xiao Mo secretly thought with some amazement.
He didn't expect that in Lan Wuxin's hand, in addition to rare things such as cold qi ice beads, ice jade Xuanwang palms, etc., there was actually such a rare spirit grass, but I was afraid that the value was absolutely extraordinary.
I don't know now, but when I return to the Academy, I have to check it carefully to see what its specific functions are and what level it belongs to.
Of course, now Xiao Mo can only throw it into the storage bag with the jade box, and Xiao Mo will not use it indiscriminately until it is unclear what specific effects and grades it has.
After all, there are also types of spirit grasses, some are beneficial to people, and some may be harmful to the human body, so they cannot be used indiscriminately.
However, except for this green spirit grass, the rest of the spirit grass is ordinary and there are no rare things. Most of them Xiao Mo could distinguish, three of them should belong to the green rank, which was very valuable, and the remaining eight were just gray-level herbs, which did not have much value.
Those three green-rank spirit grasses should be Lan Wuxin's private collection, and they couldn't have been obtained by him at one time, while those gray-rank herbs could have been obtained along the way during the time he entered the mountain.
These things are of little use to Xiao Mo, so they will naturally have to be disposed of when they return, and all of them will be exchanged for successful medals.
As for those ores and beast materials, Xiao Mo hastily looked through them, and there were no valuables, obviously they were also obtained by chance, and they were also only exchanged for successful medals, Xiao Mo didn't bother to take a closer look, and put his head into the storage bag, and his eyes immediately fell on the pile of heart magic stones.
The quality of the Heart Demon Stones that Lan Wuxin has is much stronger than those inferior Heart Demon Stones owned by Xiao Mo and the others, and the number is also higher, there are nine in total.
Five of them should have been obtained by himself through the Heart Demon Tower, and the other four pieces were obtained from unknown sources, either from the Zhenlong Hall or from other disciples.
The Heart Demon Tower can only drop the Heart Demon Stone when it is cleared for the first time, and there is no reward for clearing the same level for the second time, otherwise others will go to the first and second layers every day, and the Heart Demon Tower will not be able to cope with it.
Therefore, with Lan Wuxin's strength, at most he can open the fifth layer of the Heart Demon Tower and get five Heart Demon Stones, even if he fights many times in the future, unless he can care about the sixth layer of the Demon Tower, there will be no new Heart Demon Stones falling.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mo sighed a little, this Lan Wuxin's strength is undoubtedly extremely strong, the sixfold peak of the Freedom Realm, in fact, there is a high probability that he will directly care about the sixth layer of the Demon Tower and become a disciple of the inner courtyard.
If he was willing to pay the price of a layer of cultivation and perform the Blood Burning Technique, he would be able to care about the sixth layer and even the seventh layer of the Demon Tower, but he was obviously unwilling to pay the price, otherwise he would not be so eager for the Xuanwu Soul Fixing Pill to become a disciple of the Inner Court, and finally die in the hands of Xiao Mo.
Time is also fate, and the world is like this, but Xiao Mo also understands.
After all, unless people are in a critical moment of life and death, no one is generally willing to use this means to improve their status, because the status is there, but the strength is reduced, and the gains outweigh the losses.
People want a better status in order to get more cultivation resources, and if they want to get more cultivation resources, it is just to better improve their strength.
The path of cultivation is like sailing against the current, everyone is seeking to ascend and advance, but no one is willing to seek surrender and retreat, wanting to be promoted from the fivefold peak of the Xiaoyao Realm to the six-fold peak of the Xiaoyao Realm, Lan Wuxin doesn't know how many years it has taken and how much suffering he has endured, and now let him turn the identity of the inner courtyard that is already at his fingertips into his own cultivation to lower the level, then he must not be willing to do it.
However, these have nothing to do with Xiao Mo, he picked up the nine heart magic stones and looked at them twice, and found that eight of them were inferior heart magic stones like himself and others, but one of them was much darker and brighter, and there was a hint of purple in it, showing a fisheye shape, it turned out to be an inferior heart magic stone.
I don't know where Lan Wuxin got this kind of heart demon stone, one of them is much more precious than Lan Wuxin's other eight pieces combined, but now, it naturally fell into Xiao Mo's hands.
In addition to these, the things poured out of Lan Wuxin's storage bag ended up with only two things left.
Seven Dan bottles, a dark red ancient book, "Fire Surge Golden Lotus".
Xiao Mo first opened the seven pill bottles, poured out a pill and sniffed it, and found that most of them were soul fixing pills, especially the middle soul fixing pills, there were a total of three bottles, and the small soul fixing pill was slightly less, only two bottles.
As for the remaining two pill bottles, one bottle is the Huiqi Heart Pill, which is a second-grade Huiqi pill, which belongs to the recovery treatment category, which can restore the mental vitality lost in the battle and regain combat effectiveness, and the other bottle is a bottle of Detoxification Pill, which is obviously also prepared for entering the mountain.
Whether it is Guo Hai, Tang Wenbin, or Xiao Mo, they did not have these preparations when they entered the mountain, which is the difference between a new disciple and an old disciple.
Like Lan Wuxin, who has been in the Lingwu Mountains for a long time, he is really suitable for hunters who wander in the jungle, and there are all kinds of items needed for fighting, and Guo Hai, Tang Wenbin, Xiao Mo, maybe they didn't think of it, maybe they didn't have the resources to buy, once they encountered the excessive consumption of the battle center element, or they were poisoned and injured, they had no choice but to retreat, and they might even die.
There is no doubt that these things are all of great use to Xiao Mo, especially the two bottles of the Little Soul Fixing Pill and the three bottles of the Soul Fixing Pill, which greatly enriched Xiao Mo's pill reserves at once.
Now he has four bottles of the Little Soul Determination Pill, and three bottles of the Middle Soul Determination Pill, plus those cold qi ice beads, which are enough to support his cultivation needs for a long time.
The rest of the Hui Qi Heart Pill and the Detoxification Pill are also very useful things, making up for Xiao Mo's ill-considered regret when he entered the mountain.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mo did not hesitate to put all of them into the storage bag, and then picked up the last dark red ancient book, "Fire Surge Golden Lotus".
"Alchemy?"
Xiao Mo thought with some surprise, he didn't pay attention to it at the beginning, but now he has some reactions, when he figured out the function of the Xuanhuo Ding before, wasn't he worried that he didn't have an alchemy technique, so he could let himself explore the true use of the Xuanhuo Ding?
It's just that this Fire Surge Golden Lotus was put together with the Ice Jade Xuan King's Palm just now, so Xiao Mo subconsciously ignored it and threw it aside, now it seems that this dark red ancient book is not useless, maybe with it, Xiao Mo can really figure out something.
Thinking of this, it was nothing to be idle anyway, Xiao Mo immediately opened this dark red ancient book and read it carefully.
Time passed minute by minute, and after half an hour, Xiao Mo closed the ancient book, and his face showed a hint of surprise.
"I didn't expect that alchemy is also divided into so many levels, and the types are very beautiful, and they are not lost to the type of heart yuan technique that is cultivated by the heart. ”
After reading the introduction on the Huoyong Golden Lotus, Xiao Mo knew that the original alchemist was also a very prosperous profession on the mainland, and in ancient times, it was even more powerful and noble than many monks.
The use of the alchemist is that he can combine the spiritual essence of heaven and earth into one furnace to refine the elixir with various magical effects.
Some of them can help people break through bottlenecks, some can improve people's cultivation speed, some can drive away poison and avoid miasma, some can restore qi and heal injuries, and some can even increase people's longevity, obtain some kind of strange spirit body, and so on......
It can be said that as long as people dare to think, alchemists can refine it, but the various resources needed are becoming more and more rare, so many alchemists go out to help people alchemy, all of which charge a certain fee, and the materials are provided by the guests themselves.
Even, some alchemists can even rely on the ability to refine a certain special elixir to gain the followers and worship of many powerful monks, and their status is unmatchable.
It is precisely because of the great usefulness of alchemy that in the past 10,000 years, many schools of alchemy have also been formed, each of which delves into one or several magical alchemy, and divides it into several levels, primary, middle, high, top, legendary, and five levels.
And this 'Fire Surge Golden Lotus' alchemy technique is a beginner-level alchemy inherited from ancient times.
The strength of alchemy directly determines the strength of an alchemist, it involves the alchemist's use of flames, his understanding of medicinal effects, and even the degree of control over his spiritual ability, so the stronger the alchemy, the better the natural effect of the elixir that can be refined, and the higher the grade.
Therefore, in the alchemy world, every alchemy technique is extremely precious, and it is even more precious than some powerful heart element techniques, heart element exercises, and their status in the mind of heart cultivation.
As an alchemy technique inherited from ancient times, even if it is only a beginner alchemy technique, it is extremely precious, and I don't know where this Lan Wuxin came from.
In the eyes of Xiao Mo's mental cultivation, as one of the two ancient books found in the storage bag at the same time, the Fire Surge Golden Lotus was naturally inferior to the Ice Jade Xuanwang Palm, but in the eyes of some alchemists, it was estimated that ten Ice Jade Xuanwang Palms were not as precious as this alchemy that had been abandoned by Xiao Mo before.
After all, an ancient alchemy technique like the Fire Surge Golden Lotus has long been almost lost, and it is a kind of luck to find one.
Seeing this, Xiao Mo became a little interested.
In the past, he didn't know anything about alchemy, so he naturally didn't understand the rarity, but now he sees the above introduction to alchemy, but he feels that it is also an effective auxiliary method.
Therefore, he once again opened this Fire Surge Golden Lotus and watched it again, but this time it was much more detailed than the last time, and it was also truly integrated into the field of alchemy, pondering its techniques and studying its contents.
After another half an hour, it was confirmed that he had completely memorized it, and Xiao Mo did not destroy this ancient book, Yu Qingyao, as the heir of the alchemy family, might also be interested in this alchemy book, and bring it to her next time.
And now, it's time to use the alchemy method to try the reality of this Xuanhuo Ding.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mo waved his hand, and the fiery red Xiaoding that had been put into his storage bag appeared again, and a faint red flame aura permeated, Xiao Mo only felt ordinary before, but this time he felt much more cordial and warm.
He used a wave of heart vitality, wrapped Xiao Ding, and made it levitate about three feet in front of him out of thin air, and then, silently reciting the alchemy technique of the Fire Surge Golden Lotus, he pinched it with both hands, and suddenly swung it out more than ten times in a row.
"Whew!"
I saw that in the void, the heart vitality that wrapped the fiery red tripod suddenly exploded at the same time, and then turned into a layer of faint red flames, wrapping the tripod body, and the red flames changed, showing the phantom of golden lotus flowers.
Golden Lotus Tuoding, the heat continues to be released, the small tripod gradually becomes red, the pattern on the tripod becomes blurred more and more, and the color becomes darker and darker.
And Xiao Mo continued to withdraw the heart vitality from the meridians, and went towards the fiery red Xiao Ding, as the color of the Xiao Ding became deeper and darker, Xiao Mo's heart vitality consumption became faster and faster, even with his Freedom Realm's triple heart vitality reserves, it was only supported for a short time, and it was in a state of insupport.
Seeing this, Xiao Mo had a flash of inspiration, his mental power was running, and suddenly a blue pill bottle flew out of the storage bag again.
This is the bottle of second-grade Huiqi Heart Pill that I searched from Lan Wuxin's storage bag before, and now it is in full play.
Thinking of this, Xiao Mo did not hesitate, one hand maintained the operation of the Xuanhuo Ding, and the other hand slapped in the air, and immediately slapped the cork of the bottle, ingested one of the light blue pills, and put it in his mouth.
With the entrance of the Hui Qi Heart Pill, Xiao Mo suddenly felt a stream of elixir and jade liquid rolling down his throat down the dantian, and all the remaining heart vitality suddenly detonated when it encountered this medicinal power, and then exploded into a puff of light blue smoke.
The smoke was filled, and it slowly fell down, turning back into ice-blue gas, and the number increased a lot, which was the effect of the Huiqi Heart Pill.
However, the fiery red Xiaoding seemed to be a bottomless pit, and an hour had passed, Xiao Mo had consumed nearly half of the Hui Qi Heart Pill left by Lan Wuxin, but there was still no change in that Ding, it seemed that it was still just an ordinary Danding, except that the color was darker, and the patterns on the tripod were blurred, and there was no abnormality anymore.
This made Xiao Mo hesitate a little, looking at this appearance, this tripod is obviously an ordinary Danding, that bottle of Huiqi Heart Pill is not easy to come by, Xiao Mo may not return to the school palace for a short period of time, in this way, even if he has a lot of merit coins now, there is no way to buy it, and it will be useless when it is used up.
Thinking of staying in the depths of this Lingwu Mountain Range for several months, this bottle of Huiqi Heart Pill is obviously more precious, even if Xiao Mo has a strong soul perception and can avoid many dangers in advance, after all, some dangers are still difficult to avoid, if the danger is not discovered in advance, when the time comes, this Huiqi Heart Pill is a thousand gold, and it is worth immeasurable, and at that time, it is the hole card that saves life.
Even, even if there was no such time, with a bottle of Huiqi Heart Pill in his hand, the fierce beast that Xiao Mo felt a little difficult in the past could now barely make a Bo, and his ability to survive in the depths of this Lingwu Mountain Range would increase greatly.
In the end, whether to consume it all here just because of a guess, Xiao Mo was a little hesitant.
However, thinking that more than half of it had been consumed anyway, so I would stop it, but the part of the loss in front was equivalent to wasting it in vain, thinking that it should be impossible for Yu Qingyao to deceive himself, Xiao Mo still gritted his teeth after all: "Hold on to three more breaths, after three breaths, if Xuanhuo Ding still hasn't changed, I will stop doing it." ”
Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate any longer, and with a move in his left hand, it was another pill of Hui Qi Heart Pill entrance, turning into a large number of pure heart elements, circulating all the veins of his limbs, and then converging on his right palm again, and shrouded towards the fiery red small ding suspended in the void.
The golden lotus heated up, the golden light was shining, and countless crimson flames jumped and soared around Xiao Ding, and when the last five grains were left in the Hui Qi Heart Pill bottle left by Lan Wuxin, the mutation of the Xuanhuo Ding finally appeared.
