Chapter 108: Refining Array
Chen Changan walked along the stone path to a cave house shrouded in a burst of light.
On the stone wall outside the door of the cave, a symbol was engraved, which was consistent with the jade token in his hand.
He stretched out his hand and pushed it gently, his palm was blocked by the pure white formation light, slightly urging the spiritual power, and he wanted to exert a slight force, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and he couldn't shake the light curtain of this formation at all.
Chen Changan glanced at it, the formation outside the cave mansion could not be shaken without the cultivation of the Guiyi realm, his gaze swept to the stone wall next to the cave symbol, and there was a groove on its side, which was similar to the size of the green jade token in his hand.
Placing the token into the groove, a white light flashed, and the hollow was like a huge mouth carved in stone, directly swallowing the token into it.
The layer of light outside the cave that cut off the way suddenly faded, revealing two stone doors behind the burst, and in a sound of friction, the stone doors naturally opened.
Chen Changan looked inside, but it was a white mist, and he couldn't see clearly at all.
As he stepped in, all the sounds of the outside world disappeared, and the stone door of the cave was not closed, but the faint light became rich again.
Chen Changan found that this white mist was condensed to the extreme by the aura of heaven and earth, and when he reached out and grabbed it, there was a faint wetness in his hands.
He was a little surprised, he didn't expect that the aura in this Zhongpin Cave Mansion would be so rich, the Heavenly Demon Sutra in his body was running, and the terrifying devouring power poured out, sweeping and refining the aura in the Cave Mansion.
The aura entered his body, turning into pure spiritual power and pouring into the dantian, which actually made the flower path seeds on the other side of his body brighter a little.
About twenty breaths of effort.
The aura in the cave was swallowed up, revealing its original appearance, and the dark yellow stone walls and ground, in addition to being smooth, seemed to hide many formation patterns, continuously transmitting heaven and earth aura to the cave.
However, the aura of heaven and earth transmitted through the formation was very different from when it first came, and it could not form a white mist at all, but it was only two or three times richer than the aura of the Guanxin Lake.
Probably because the Beihai Sword Pavilion was silent for a hundred years and reborn, so this cave has accumulated a hundred years of aura.
"A hundred years of aura is only these, sure enough, cultivation still depends on individuals!"
Chen Changan thought and sighed.
He walked around the cave at will, and when he came to the end, he found that the cave had two floors, the upper floor was empty and there was only a futon, and the lower floor was a bed and a table, with a futon on the bed and a faded ancient book on the table.
The second floor went outward, and there was a hill that resembled a small courtyard, blocked by a white shower.
This burst of light is exactly the same as outside the cave.
Chen Changan walked to the front of the light and saw that there was a depression on the stone wall on one side, and there was a cyan token in the depression, which was the one that was swallowed up when he opened the cave just now.
He removed the token, and the white light in front of him suddenly became transparent.
Walking out of the light and standing on the hill, all the sounds of the outside world became clear, and in front of the left side of the hill was the waterfall that fell from the sky, covering half of the view of the mountain.
Chen Changan looked to the left, there were four mountains like him, and there were four caves, but the other three were blocked by the waterfall, and it was difficult to see the peach forest in the Guanxin Pavilion.
"Brother Chen!"
Li Zhou's figure appeared on the mountain on the left, and when he saw Chen Changan, he waved excitedly.
Chen Changan smiled faintly and nodded at him.
"Cultivate well!"
Just said a word, Chen Changan turned around and went back to the cave, leaving Li Zhou alone to look at the waterfall in front of him with some loss.
After reading the cave house, he was also going to prepare to refine the mystery.
Although refining the mystical weapon and refining the elixir are similar, the gap is not small.
Refining the elixir requires a refining furnace, and refining the mystical weapon only needs to arrange the array of refining tools to start, and refining the elixir only consumes spiritual power and spirit, and now refining the mystical weapon needs to integrate the cultivator's Dao intent, and the consumption of the cultivator is extremely large, especially the high-level mystical weapon, the required Dao intent is simply not something that ordinary cultivators can achieve, and if it is forcibly refined, it may lead to damage to cultivation.
Chen Changan naturally didn't want to do it all at once, what he wanted to refine was just a fourth-order mystical weapon, which he used to carry his Dao intent as the natal object of his sword dao cultivation.
The mystical weapon as a natal object does not need to be too high-level, because with the improvement of the monk's cultivation, he can collect materials to refine the natal object to improve the grade, on the contrary, if the cultivator chooses the high-level mystical weapon as his natal object at the beginning, it is often impossible to urge the natal object at all before the cultivation is improved, which directly leads to the decline of combat power.
Walking to the upper floor of the cave mansion, Chen Changan took out all the materials prepared in advance.
Arranging the refining array is something that many cultivators need to learn, and Chen Chang'an, as the leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect in his previous life, has naturally already practiced.
About an hour.
A crimson formation that covered almost the entire upper layer of the cave appeared, and streams of flame-like light circulated in the array, constantly impacting the eighth-order thousand-year-old cold iron suspended by the smoke in this formation.
Chen Changan discovered a problem, the refining array needed to consume spiritual power to activate, and the spirit crystals on his body were insufficient, so he could not speed up the speed at which the refining array could smelt the mystical materials, and could only rely on absorbing the few heaven and earth spiritual qi in this cave to maintain the operation of the formation.
"Looks like we're going to have to find a chance to earn some spirit crystals!"
Chen Changan thought secretly, and he didn't know if there was a place to trade in the Beihai Sword Pavilion.
He observed the refining array for a moment, and then went downstairs to take out the Dan furnace, ready to start refining the elixir, and quickly refined all the elixirs he bought from Kunlun City into elixir, and then exchanged the elixir for spirit crystals.
So, when most of the disciples were cultivating or building stone houses, Chen Changan began to refine the elixir in full swing in the Zhongpin Cave Mansion.
......
There are five outer buildings of Beihai Sword Pavilion, the south leaving building, the north sword building, the east building, the west royal building, and the middle Xuan building.
These five buildings are distributed among the five cupola peaks in the east, west, south, north and middle.
In the middle of the night, in a small closed attic in the Zhongxuan Tower, the lights are bright.
"What are you talking about, Senior Sister Zhang actually arranged a cave mansion for that Chen Changan?"
Pu Xing looked at the disciple who reported to him not far away with a gloomy face, and his voice was full of anger.
"Yes, it's still a medium-grade cave mansion!"
The disciple was clad in a night robe and his head buried under the cloak and spoke.
Pu Xing's fists were clenched tightly, his eyes were full of jealousy, and he only felt angry.
Senior Sister Zhang drove him back to the Sword Pavilion from Beihai City for this outsider, and it was okay to report his mistakes in Beihai City to the elders and order him to be imprisoned by his father, but this time she even arranged a Zhongpin Cave Mansion for this person.
If it weren't for the fact that he deliberately arranged a hand among the many disciples before leaving, letting them keep an eye on Chen Changan, and then arranged for someone to contact them and then pass the news back, otherwise he would still be kept in the dark now.
"Damn it!"
The more Pu Xing thought about it, the more angry he became, and then slapped his palm heavily on the pear wood table beside him, and in an instant, the whole table was shattered and turned into broken wood.
"A nameless boy dares to provoke Senior Sister Zhang, it seems that he can't recognize the reality if he doesn't teach him a lesson!" Pu Xing said coldly.
The disciple who reported the news bent down and said respectfully, "Senior Brother Pu, what should I do then?"
A chill flickered in Pu Xing's eyes, and he said, "I'll write a letter, you bring Zhou Wenli to Ming Jiantai, and let him arrange it, I want this Chen Changan to get out of Beihai Sword Pavilion by himself!"
Since Chen Changan was introduced by the Great Elder, he couldn't drive him away, so let him take the initiative to go, and no one would be able to say anything about him at that time.
The disciple who reported the news bowed his head slightly and replied, "Yes." ”
Pu Xing immediately walked to the Lingmu desk on the side, picked up the pen and ink, wrote a few lines of words, and then folded it and handed it to the disciple not far away.
Of course, there was also a bottle of cultivation pill handed over by the way.
"Good work!"
The disciple took the pill and said with a smile in his voice: "Senior Brother Pu, don't worry, I believe that I will definitely deliver it to you!"
Pu Xing nodded with satisfaction and said, "Be careful when you go down, don't let people see it!"
That disciple hurriedly responded.
Seeing his figure walk out of the attic and disappear into the night, the cold light in Pu Xing's eyes flowed, Zhang Yuni was the person he fancied, no one wanted to rob him!
......
Early the next morning.
The morning glow blooms in the sky, and the sea breeze blows a few clouds.
A grand and far-reaching bell rang in the Three Thousand Miles Guanxin Pavilion.
Chen Changan tiredly put the furnace of pills that had just been refined into the jade bottles, and then glanced around, there were already two jade bottles filled with pills, and this one in his hand was three bottles.
"Not bad!"
Chen Changan nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and put away the pills, at this rate, at most half a month can be used to refine all the pills.
He remembered that someone seemed to have come to the cave last night and sent a copy of Zhanxin's disciple rules, and seemed to inform him that when the Dao bell rang in the early morning, let the disciples go to the dojo of the Guanxin Pavilion to listen to the lectures.
Chen Changan washed up casually, then walked up to the cave mansion, glanced at the thousand-year-old cold iron in the refining array, and then walked out of the cave.
The dojo of the Guanxin Pavilion was above the giant peak on the side of their cave.
Chen Changan walked out of the cave and crossed the stone road, and saw many familiar faces on the mountain road, which were the disciples he had seen in a hurry yesterday.
Chen Changan followed, walking up the mountain road.
"Have you heard, there were really third-order demon beasts last night, and a few people were bitten off their legs, and they couldn't even go to the dojo!"
"Yesterday, I rested with the four Daoists beside me, and I didn't see a demon beast!"
"I've seen a few demon wolves passing by the stone house of the three of us, but I haven't seen anyone bitten!"
"I saw it, the four demon wolves were less than thirty zhang away from the stone house of me and Zhou Daoyou, besieged a lone Taoist friend and fled, and then were bitten off their legs, and that scream is still fresh in my memory when I think about it!"
Chen Changan walked in the crowd, listening to their discussions, and secretly thought in his heart, if the third-order demon wolf can hunt and take out the demon crystal, it can also be used by him for cultivation.
An evil seed was planted in his heart, sprouted violently, and grew wildly at an uncontrollable rate.
"Chen Chang'an!"
