Chapter 267: Lu Qing Alchemy
Yuyan Mountain is a pretty big place.
Of course, it is not as large as the Qingfeng Gate, but Yuyan Mountain is not just a mountain. The place covered by this spiritual vein is composed of many mountain peaks. All of them can be regarded as the scope of Yuyan Mountain, and they are all under the control of the Lu family, but the area where the Lu family mainly lives is actually the main peak.
For example, the construction of the Spirit Peak Holy Pagoda before was actually another side peak away from the main peak.
And this time, the Spirit Gathering Temple was also not built on the main peak, but it was still slightly closer to the main peak than the Spirit Peak Holy Tower.
When the Lingfeng Holy Tower was built, the movement was too big, and the thunder and lightning were used as swords and axes, and a tower was carved out on a mountain peak.
And at present, this Gathering Spirit Temple is just being uprooted in an open space cleared in advance. At night, during the hour when the Gathering Spirit Temple built itself, many family monks discovered the abnormality, but they were warned in advance, and no one passed;
By the morning of the second day, everyone saw that there was an additional temple here on the side peak.
Li Yanling and other senior monks of the family also came over on the morning of the second day.
When they arrived, they found that the door of the temple was closed.
Lu Qing's voice sounded in the minds of several of them at the same time: "You need money to enter this door." β
οΌοΌ
Still want money?
"I went in to practice for ten years, but it was only a year outside. Monk Qiming asked for 1,000 spirit stones to go in, and Jin Dan to go in for 5,000. But Yan Ling, don't think about it yet, it's useless for you to go in, the aura of the spiritual veins of Yuyan Mountain can't support your cultivation, Chaoxi, a few of you can. β
The four of them all heard their father's words, and then their faces were full of shock.
It's only been a year since ten years of cultivation?
Then Lu Chaoxi went in and cultivated directly for a hundred years, and it is estimated that he has directly cultivated the Golden Pill, right? It has only been ten years in the outside world...... Isn't that actually equivalent to ten years of gold pills?
What a fairy treasure this is!
They are all aware of the magic of this place and the power it can bring.
"This hall can only enter one person at a time, come one by one, or go to Chao Xi to stay for a year?"
Although his father was not in front of him, just Chuanyin was talking, Lu Chaoxi still did enough etiquette: "Okay." β
Not long after, a family monk, riding a water cloud horse, flew from a distance. After handing over the storage bag containing a thousand spirit stones to the patriarch, he looked curiously at the newly appeared hall in front of him, and had no intention of leaving.
Lu Chaoxi didn't say anything, and let the onlookers watch.
At the door of the temple, Lu Chaoxi found a black opening. He put a thousand spirit stones into it.
Then the doors of the temple opened.
It's amazing that when you look inside from the outside, you can't see anything clearly. It was as if there was a hazy fog that made the furnishings and appearance inside impossible to be observed by the outside world.
"I'll try it first. Lu Chaoxi said one last word to his wife, brother and sister behind him, and then stepped into it.
After he entered, it seemed to outsiders that his figure gradually blurred as he went deeper and deeper, and then quickly merged with the hazy everything, and the observation was not clear.
On closer inspection, the door of the temple closed with a bang.
And from Lu Chaoxi's own perspective, when he entered the temple, the original hazy things in front of him became clear step by step.
Look around, it's a quaint-looking place. The large octagonal square is very empty, without any superfluous furnishings, and next to it are stone walls that look the most ordinary.
This is a pure cultivation place, with a rich aura, which can almost be regarded as the best quality of aura that the spiritual veins of Yuyan Mountain can express, and the cultivation effect here must not be bad.
It is...... It feels a little boring. As soon as he entered, according to his father, he was going to practice here in an honest retreat for ten years. Even the corresponding spiritual food, he prepared two storage bags to hold, and also included a lot of pills and other things needed for cultivation.
Although, he couldn't leave here for half a step for ten years, he also needed such a long period of time to cultivate well.
As the Lu family develops faster and faster, the things and situations they face will become more and more difficult to deal with. In the past, when he was still in the foundation building period, he was the strongest person in the family, the main force of the family, and he needed to deal with every situation encountered by the family. This situation, especially when the white ghost traveled south, he led the family monks to recruit accordingly and went to the north to participate in the war, which reached its peak.
He himself became a monk of Qiming through that time, and it was also since that war that the Lu family had wings to take off.
However, since then, after taking off from the Lu family and starting to face greater challenges, he found that he could solve fewer things. His strength is much stronger than in the past, and after entering the Qiming period, he has quickly grown to the fourth layer of Qiming.
But despite this, the growth rate of his personal strength is not comparable to the expansion rate of the Lu family's forces.
In this way, of course, that sense of powerlessness is getting deeper and deeper.
This time on the battlefield of the North Wilderness Forest, the Lu family shined, but it still relied on his father, in addition to his father, it was his daughter-in-law Li Yanling. As for himself...... That's it.
He didn't want that. Even, he actually doesn't want to be ridden on the head by his daughter-in-law for the rest of his life.
In the past, there was no way, he was a double spirit root, and Li Yanling was a single spirit root, and he was also a teacher of Jin Dan since he was a child, and he had not been interrupted by a serious injury.
But this time in the Northern Wilderness, he was also told by his father that he had become a monk of Lei Danlinggen. When he was cultivating, he could also clearly feel that he was completely different from the past.
Since this is the case, the ambition in his heart has further burned.
Set a small goal first - cultivate to surpass your own wife!
......
Outside the Gathering Spirit Temple, everyone watched curiously for a while, and after seeing that there was no more movement in the temple, they dispersed.
Subsequently, according to Lu Qing, this Gathering Spirit Temple will be included in the daily patrol route of the family monks, and corresponding guards will also be arranged-in fact, there is nothing to guard, just stand guard and practice by the way.
This is not only the case with the Gathering Spirit Temple, but also with the Spirit Peak Holy Tower.
To be honest, these two buildings are very precious, useful, and awesome, and they are all right, but no one else can steal them anyway......
As for destroying it, it would be quite difficult to break through the protective array of the Jade Smoky Mountain and come in and destroy the spectacular buildings established by the Lu family.
Whoever has this idea can try it.
Speaking of the Gathering Spirit Temple itself, in addition to this one-to-one accelerated cultivation effect, it also has the most basic passive effect - it can increase the cultivation efficiency of all monks within the range of the spiritual vein.
Before, Lu Qing hadn't thought about how this function was realized. Anyway, that's what the description of the function in the system interface says, and he thought that as long as he was in the spirit vein, his cultivation speed would become faster.
However, when the Spirit Gathering Temple was built and various effects began to take effect, Lu Qing found that things were not so simple.
The existence of the Gathering Spirit Temple did not increase everyone's cultivation efficiency by three levels, but instead increased the quality and concentration of the spiritual energy of the spiritual veins by a lot. The effect brought by this is basically to increase the efficiency of cultivation on the Jade Smoky Mountain by three percent under the same circumstances.
And in this way, the cultivation efficiency is improved...... It's hard to say whether it's good or bad.
But for the time being, it has solved the problem of congestion in Yuyan Mountain a little.
And the so-called 'crowding' is, of course, not geographically crowded. In this world, land is not really valuable, it is really vast and sparsely populated;
However, Reiki is a valuable resource.
A congestion of the spiritual veins refers to the 'crowding' of the aura. The quality and quantity of spiritual energy that a spiritual vein can provide is limited, and the more cultivators who live in it, the stronger the average strength, then the spiritual energy that each person can extract will naturally be affected, and after exceeding a certain limit, it will affect the cultivation speed of all the cultivators in the spiritual vein.
Even if Jade Smoky Mountain had been upgraded once and had become a third-order spirit vein, it was already quite crowded now.
Li Yanling doesn't count, she can't cultivate well in Yuyan Mountain at all, either she will enter the secret realm of ancient monuments, or she will refine spirit stones to maintain her cultivation.
In addition to her, the Lu family also has three enlightenment periods, nearly ten foundation building periods, and more than two hundred Qi refining stage cultivators, this pressure on the third-order spiritual veins is still quite large.
It may not be a big problem for the family to add a foundation building monk, and if there are ten more, the pressure on the spiritual veins may be fine, but if there are two more enlightenments, the Jade Smoke Mountain will indeed not be able to bear it, resulting in a crowded situation of spiritual energy.
The significance of the spiritual vein upgrade is here, not only can it carry the Jindan monks to cultivate here for a long time in the future, but it can also expand the amount of spiritual energy that the spiritual vein can release, so that the lower-level monks can also benefit.
And the effect brought by the [Gathering Spirit Temple] is to magnify this level. Make the aura more concentrated, more concentrated, and higher quality. Under normal circumstances, it is possible to directly improve the cultivation effect of the cultivators in the spiritual vein, but in the future, if there are too many people on the Jade Smoke Mountain, this effect will be diluted, but it will not fall into the situation of spiritual energy crowding, which will lead to a decrease in cultivation speed.
Moreover, thinking further, in the future, when the level of the spiritual vein is higher, the increase in concentration and quality will bring more obvious effects.
And precisely, the project of upgrading the Jade Smoky Mountain to the fourth-order spiritual vein has already started. The two thousand karma in the early stage, Lu Qing had already smashed down, and the magic circle that warmed the spiritual veins had also been arranged, and the corresponding spirit stones had also been buried.
Ten years later, Jade Smoky Mountain would return to the level of the fourth-order spirit veins at its peak.
Coupled with the existence of this [Gathering Spirit Temple], I am afraid that if it is to supply five or six, or even ten Jindan cultivators to cultivate at the same time, it will not be a big problem.
It's just delicious!
......
The construction of the Gathering Spirit Temple cost Lu Qing 3,000 karma, and the upgrade of the four-star spiritual vein also made Lu Qing immediately pay 2,000 karma, and then 600 per year for ten years, Lu Qing will continue to invest a total of 8,000 karma in the upgrade of the spiritual vein.
600 ...... per year The fixed cost of this karma is quite large.
Relying on some achievements that you will jump out of every year, as well as some crusades that will be triggered from time to time, it is a little difficult to get an average of 600 karma per year.
He plans to keep a hand, and the karma he has on hand now can be spent less fiercely, and he can keep more as a reserve for the future.
At least six thousand must be left, otherwise the upgrade of the spiritual vein will be interrupted halfway, and it will be a blood pit.
At present, there are about 24,000 karma left in Lu Qing's hands. This wave directly cost five thousand, and only nineteen thousand remained, counting the six thousand karma reserved, Lu Qing's current karmic reserves were only about 13,000.
He has a three-star resurrection exchange item in his hand, and the karma required for this exchange item is one thousand and five, which must also be reserved in his hand.
As a result, now the karma that Lu Qing can directly use is less than 12,000.
It's still a huge fortune, but he hasn't figured out what to do with it for a while.
There's no need to rush to spend.
He took out a thousand first, and made a wave of basic improvements.
The exchange item looked a little insufficient, Lu Qing made another wave of ten consecutive draws, two hundred and fifty points of karma, and he didn't draw any very rare varieties, but the general exchange items came out a lot, and he could let him spend it.
The newborn children of the family, under the age of six, can each enjoy a wave of spiritual root upgrades; those with a slightly brighter future in the family can get different levels of cultivation speed increases; [Healing] This kind of exchange item, needless to say, when the Eagle Valley is fighting,...... The family style that should be renewed, what [family planning], [high morale], and [loyal clansmen], are also renewed.
In addition, Lu Qing also drew out a lot of things like [Resource Exploration], [Resource Upgrade], [Turtle Snake Grass Seed], and [Moon Soul Flower Seed]......
These are basically resource things. There are even some things that are duplicated from the things that were exchanged before, such as the [Turtle Snake Grass Seed], which the family actually already has.
But it doesn't matter, if you have it, you won't exchange it, and if you don't have it, you can exchange it and put it in the family's medicine garden to plant, and more varieties will also have more income.
For example, [Resource Exploration], Lu Qing used five to explore in the direction of the North Wilderness.
Two resource points were identified.
Coupled with the fact that they were found in the past and had not yet had time to be developed, Lu Qing now has two small ore veins, a transplantable herb group, and a beast group.
However, these resources are basically one-star or two-star, which is not too valuable.
Lu Qing is a little lazy to run and pay attention to the development of these things. He planned to record the locations of these resource points and let Ting Chou find a way to get these resource points, and then develop them further.
How to arrange manpower to reconnoitre, how to assess the difficulty of the battle, and what kind of team to arrange to capture or seize resource points are up to Ting Chou to figure out how to do it himself.
As for Lu Qing himself, he began to be busy with another thing - refining Zhuji Dan!
Now, the raw materials for refining Zhuji Dan that the Lu family has are very abundant.
After the battle in the Northern Wilderness, the Lu family got a total of five third-order demon pills.
Except for a third-order peak demon pill, it would be too extravagant to refine the Zhuji Dan, which is quite wasteful, and the other four can be refined.
Moreover, the efficiency of the demon pill used to refine the Zhuji Dan is even higher than that of the golden lotus. A thousand-year-old golden lotus has an average of five pills, and the demon pill at the beginning of the third order is about the same as the thousand-year gold chain; the demon pill in the middle of the third order can produce six on average, and if the alchemy technique is good, seven is also very easy. And like the demon pill in the late third-order stage, eight of them are easy to burst out.
The four demon pills in the hands of the Lu family are ready to be used as Zhuji Dan, three of them are of medium grade, and one is of high grade.
Count it down, you can produce twenty Tsukidan!
Of course, in addition to the quality of the material itself, there is also a very important point, which is the level of the alchemist.
A third-order alchemist can refine the Zhuji Dan, but under normal circumstances, as long as there is a choice, the third-order alchemist will not be allowed to do this.
Among the third-order elixirs, the Zhuji Dan can almost be regarded as the most expensive one, and it is too tyrannical to let the third-order alchemist refine it. If the rate of Chengdan is too low, the extremely precious raw materials will not be able to exert the best results. If it is less than one Dan, it is the difference between tens of thousands of spirit stones. If you want to practice your hands, there are other third-order pills that can be practiced, and there is no need to use Zhuji Dan to practice. The value of one Zhuji Pill is enough to open several ordinary third-order pills.
Alchemists above the fourth order can ensure a relatively high rate of becoming a pill.
Before, what Lu Qing thought was that the demon pills that the family was going to take out to refine the Zhuji Dan were to invite a fourth-order alchemist from the sect or somewhere else to refine them. Even if the remuneration given is not low, it is still much better than the family's own refining.
After all, the best alchemist in the Lu family now is the Ming Dynasty, and she was promoted to the top by Lu Qing not long ago with an alchemist. Otherwise, it would be really difficult for Ming Chao, who is usually devoted to his own cultivation and rarely pays attention to alchemy, to be promoted to three stars.
In contrast, the alchemists trained by the family, the young Lu Jingming, have now reached the second-order level.
However, after obtaining the 'Creation Nationality', Lu Qing had other ideas.
In the Creation Book, there is also an alchemy method. And because Lu Qing was directly infused with the system, he had a very full understanding of all the contents of the entire exercise. Therefore, it stands to reason that he should also be a very good alchemist now, and his level is theoretically a four-star level.
Then why don't I refine it myself? This money is earned by others, so it is better for me to do the ball myself!
However, after all, this thing is very important, the material is rare and valuable, and Lu Qing is still not careless.
After all, before this, he had barely been exposed to much knowledge in alchemy, not to mention that he didn't know anything, probably only had some understanding, let alone much practice.
So, before starting to refine the Zhuji Dan, he first ordered someone to get a third-order medicine furnace, then found some other materials, first opened the furnace to refine some first-order and second-order level pills, got used to the feel, and then found some third-order pills and fourth-order pills to practice.
After more than half a year, Lu Qing found that his alchemy level was indeed very naΓ―ve because of his lack of experience.
However, the alchemy method attached to the Creation Book is unexpectedly strong! it is much stronger than the popular alchemy method that is now circulating on the market!
Even if he is very inexperienced, he can still achieve very good alchemy results!
After a period of familiarity, Lu Qing's alchemy experience also rushed up through the evil supplement, and the effect of refining some fourth-order pills was not even worse than some old fourth-order alchemists!
That's enough.
Lu Qing didn't hesitate any longer, and asked people to send three middle-grade third-order demon pills over, and he began to open the furnace for alchemy!
The first furnace, six Zhuji Dan, is considered the average level of a middle-grade third-order demon pill.
The alchemy time in the middle alone took him ten days.
It's still a bit hard, and that's why a high-level alchemist needs the cultivator's own cultivation to reach a certain level before he can do it. After all, the processing of some high-level materials, as well as the entire process of alchemy, all require the cultivator to spend his own strength to deal with, and without a certain cultivation foundation, he can't even refine the materials, let alone complete the refining of the pill.
However, after ten days of hard work, Lu Qing was still very relieved to see the six golden Tsukidans in the furnace.
At least there was no waste, and it reached the average level of the third-order mid-grade demon pill.
Moreover, this was the first time he had refined Tsukidan. After having an experience, Lu Qing believes that if he does it later, his performance will definitely be better than this first time!
After resting for two days, Lu Qing didn't waste time, and started the refining of the second furnace very simply.
This time, I was lucky, and there were eight of them!
The mid-grade demon pill can produce eight Zhuji Pills, which is also a very rare situation in the hands of some very experienced fourth-order alchemists.
This is not only explained by luck, although it must also be a part of the factor, but when you think about it, the alchemy technique of creating a book is still very helpful.
However, by the third furnace, the luck was not so good, only seven came out, but it was still stronger than average.
With only three medium-grade demon pills, there are twenty-one Zhuji Pills, which is a full three more than the expected eighteen pills!
In addition to rejoicing, Lu Qing was also self-cultivation, and took out the last demon pill, that is, the third-order top-grade one.
Open the furnace, alchemy, ten days later, when Lu Qing used spiritual power to transform the pill into shape, he really felt the ten Zhuji Dan!
A huge sense of joy filled his heart, and the four demon pills made a total of thirty-one Zhuji Dan!
In the future, the Lu family will not have to worry about the cultivation of the younger monks of the family for a long time!
