Chapter 95: I want to learn alchemy
The ability to defy the heavens of the heart of Chenhe gave Ling Youdao the idea of learning alchemy.
And the reason why he didn't want to study alchemy before this was because he felt that his qualifications were too poor, so he needed to devote more time to cultivation.
It takes a lot of time to learn alchemy, and he can't squeeze that much time out at all.
If he spends a lot of time studying alchemy, then his cultivation time will be greatly reduced, and he may not be able to reach the ninth level of qi cultivation before Shouyuan is exhausted, let alone build a foundation.
If you can't build a foundation successfully, what if you learn the art of alchemy?
After more than 100 years, it will eventually turn into a handful of loess.
The purpose of learning alchemy is to better cultivate, if learning alchemy will affect cultivation, but you still have to forcibly learn alchemy, then you are putting the cart before the horse.
There are more first-order alchemists in the immortal cultivation world, but the proportion of first-order alchemists who succeed in building a foundation is outrageously low.
Without him, the vast majority of first-order alchemists would spend a lot of time studying alchemy, and they would not remember their fundamental purpose until they were seventy or eighty, but by that time, they had already missed the best age for cultivation.
Only those alchemy geniuses can take care of cultivation while learning alchemy, and Ling Youdao's grandfather, Ling Yuansheng, is such a person.
Therefore, the longer the alchemists in the immortal cultivation realm, the more powerful their alchemy skills become, because they have a lot of time to study the art of alchemy.
But that's not the case!
Ling Youdao possessed the Heart of Chenhe, and with the assistance of the Heart of Chenhe, his cultivation speed was comparable to that of the Heavenly Spirit Root, and although there were still bottlenecks, he was still able to free up a lot of time.
In addition, he also possessed the essence of Chenhe, a treasure that could accelerate the growth of elixirs, and compared to other alchemists, he would have more elixirs to practice on his own.
With both free time and a large amount of elixir, as long as Ling Youdao is not stupid, he will definitely choose to learn alchemy.
"I want to learn alchemy, but my grandfather is still in retreat, and there is no one to guide me, so it seems that I can only figure out how to do alchemy by myself. ”
"First go to the family's skill pavilion and find a Danfang suitable for practice. ”
Although Ling Youdao was forced by Ling Yuansheng to memorize a lot of alchemy knowledge, that knowledge was limited to the understanding of elixir, and as for how to refine the elixir, he didn't know anything.
Soon, he arrived at the Skill Pavilion in the middle of Qingcang Mountain, showed his identity token to the family monk guarding the door, and then was put inside.
Danfang is the foundation of the alchemist, and it can be regarded as one of the foundations of a family.
The Cangli Ling clan is very strict with the Danfang, and generally only three types of people can consult the Danfang in the family collection.
The first is the foundation building elder of the family, the second is the official alchemist of the family, and the third is the alchemy apprentice cultivated by the family.
Among them, alchemy apprentices who want to consult the Dan prescription need to go through the assessment of the alchemist, and the assessment is very simple, that is, to see if you have the possibility of becoming an alchemist.
If it is possible to become an alchemist, then you can consult the simplest pill recipe and successfully refine the pill, even if you are the official alchemist of the family, you can get in touch with more pills.
The Cangli Ling clan is not only strict in the management of alchemy skills, but all the inheritance of cultivation skills is managed in this way, and its purpose is to prevent the leakage of the family's immortal cultivation skills.
Ling Youdao has a large amount of elixir knowledge reserves, and has a fire spirit root, Ling Yuansheng has observed it several times when he was alchemizing, and he is already an alchemy apprentice recognized by Ling Yuansheng.
Soon, he arrived at the area where things related to alchemy were stored.
He was about to walk in, but was stopped by an old man.
"Stop, you're not an alchemist, I know all the alchemists of the family, you're an alchemy apprentice, right?"
Ling Youdao said with a smile: "Yes, I am the alchemy apprentice of the family, and I have come to receive a pill prescription today to study how to make alchemy." ”
The old man asked unhurriedly, "Do you have a certificate to guide the alchemist to issue a certificate?" ”
"Do you want a voucher?"
"Of course, otherwise how would I know if you've been allowed to inspect the Danfang. ”
The old man glanced at Ling Youdao, "Who is your instructor alchemist?" Go to him and ask for a certificate, and with the certificate, I can let you check the Danfang." ”
"My alchemy guide is my grandfather, but he has been in retreat for several years, and I don't know when he will come out. ”
"Who is your grandfather?"
"My grandfather is the Seventh Elder. ”
The old man was startled, and instantly smiled.
"Oh, it turns out that you are the grandson of the Seventh Elder, and you have a virtuous nephew!"
Ling Yuansheng is the head of all the alchemists of the Cangli Ling clan, and the person who can stay here must also be an alchemist, so he naturally knows something about Ling Youdao, but he has never met him.
"I used to hear the Seventh Elder say that the virtuous nephew didn't like alchemy, but today the virtuous nephew finally figured it out and knew the alchemist. ”
Ling Youdao smiled and responded, "Well, I did figure it out, so I came to find a pill recipe and studied how to make alchemy." ”
The old man laughed, "The virtuous nephew has been affirmed by the Seventh Elder, so he will naturally be able to contact the family's Danfang. ”
"Don't need credentials?"
"No, the Seventh Elder has said it several times, but you only came now. ”
Ling Youdao nodded, "I see." ”
The old man said, "The virtuous nephew is not yet the official alchemist of the family, so he can only check the Dan prescription of Yanggu Dan. ”
The old man felt that he had to explain the rules of the family clearly, lest Ling Youdao think that he was targeting him, and then go to the Seventh Elder to put on his own shoes.
"Hmm. ”
Soon, the old man went inside and took out a Dan Fang and handed it to Ling Youdao.
"Virtuous nephew, this is Yanggu Dan's Dan recipe, and it can't be taken away. But you can memorize it. ”
Ling Youdao nodded, and then read the Yanggu Dan Dan Fang in his hand.
According to the description on the Dan Fang, Yanggu Dan belongs to a kind of Bigu Dan, and the Bigu Dan he bought before is Yanggu Dan, and he can not eat for three days if he eats one Yanggu Dan.
After a while, he put away the Yanggu Dan Dan Fang in his hand, and then handed it to the old man.
The old man was surprised: "You have already remembered?"
"Well, I've written it down, but I'll need to study it when I get back. ”
Because Ling Youdao is a reborn person, his divine soul is very powerful, although he can't remember it, as long as he looks at it carefully once or twice, he can write it down.
In addition, he memorized a lot of knowledge about elixirs, as well as a lot of professional language in the alchemy industry, so he could naturally memorize the Danfang of Yanggu Dan over and over again.
Hearing this, the old man sighed: "As the grandson of the Seventh Elder, he must have obtained the true inheritance of the Seventh Elder." ”
For the old man's sycophancy, Ling Youdao chose automatic filtering.
"Then I'll take my leave. ”
"Virtuous nephew, the Seventh Elder is in retreat, if you don't understand anything, you can come to me, and I will definitely explain it to you in detail. ”
Ling Youdao couldn't shirk the old man's kindness, so he arched his hand and said, "Then it will be troublesome for the clan uncle." ”
The old man smiled: "No trouble, no trouble." ”
