Chapter 9 Learning Alchemy

Shi Yue counted carefully, there were no less than 100 kinds of elixirs in the entire courtyard alone, and the total number of elixirs was as many as thousands.

Most of these elixirs are seventy or eighty years old, and there are only more than 100 elixirs for more than 100 years, according to Shi Yue's estimates, if all the elixirs in these ten acres of spiritual fields are sold, they are worth at least tens of thousands of spirit stones.

"How nice would it be if all these elixirs were mine?" Shi Yue looked at the large piece of elixir in front of him and muttered to himself, his face full of envy.

He shook his head and walked towards the basement,

Back in the basement, Shi Yue came to the wooden frame, on which there were many classics, including jade slips, paper books, bamboo slips, etc.

"Cultivation Methods of Violet Grass", "Spirit Plant Handbook", "Spirit Plant Husband Need", "Spirit Plant Yield Increase Outline", ······

Rows and rows of books on cultivation are all on the shelves.

"Red Cloud Flower Planting Instructions", red cloud flower, the shape resembles a cloud, dark red, twenty years of ripeness, more than ten years of red cloud flower is the best raw material for making rune paper, red cloud flower needs to be planted in a place full of fire and spiritual energy, the interval between the two red cloud flowers must be greater than one foot, watered once a month, when it is almost ripe, it is changed to water once every half a month, the amount of water should not be too much, otherwise it is easy to cause wilting.

"The planting method of coagulation tobacco", coagulation tobacco, white all over the body, five years of ripening, the requirements for the growth environment are not high, it is an adjuvant for refining a variety of pills, the interval between the two coagulation tobacco plants needs to be greater than one inch, and the water can be watered once every three months, and the amount of water is appropriate.

"Outline of the Growth of Spiritual Plants", when planting, the elixir seeds are confirmed to be buried in the soil, not too deep, nor too shallow, the interval between the two elixirs needs to be strictly planted, the rain should be applied on time, the rainfall should be appropriate, not more nor less, regular fertilization and insect removal, remember to pollinate when the spirit fruit tree blooms and bears fruit, be careful when picking the elixir and fruit, don't damage the elixir and the fruit, and ······

Shi Yue looked at the classics on the shelves one by one, these classics introduced various spirit plants in great detail, not only listed the growth environment and efficacy of spirit plants, but also put forward relevant suggestions for planting methods.

Since listening to Uncle Yan Ge's teaching, Shi Yue has a general plan for his future----- with the help of the anti-heaven ability of the mysterious space, he will grow elixirs and sell spirit stones.

After reading the classics on the wooden shelf, Shi Yue's thoughts came alive.

The value of an elixir is basically fixed, but if the elixir is processed and made into something else, the price can be doubled or even several times.

To give a few examples, ten years of red cloud flowers, twenty spirit stones for one catty, if the red cloud flower is made into blank rune paper, a dozen blank rune paper and a spirit stone; twenty years of green silk fruit, thirty spirit stones for one catty, if the green silk fruit is used to make green silk wine, one pound of green silk wine can be sold for fifty spirit stones; thirty years of yellow Luomu, ten spirit stones on the market for one catty, fired into spirit charcoal thirty spirit stones for one catty; thirty years of five-leaf clover, twenty spirit stones for one catty, refined into Qi Nourishing Pill, five spirit stones for one.

The speed of time passing in the mysterious space is ten times that of the outside world, according to this calculation, the spiritual rice that crops once a year is planted in the mysterious space, and it will mature in more than a month.

Selling a large amount of spiritual rice elixir at once is easy to arouse the suspicion of others, not to mention, it is also easy to expose the secret of the blue beads.

Shi Yue thought about it, planning to learn alchemy, if he became an alchemist, he could refine the elixir from the elixir Linggu and sell it, not to mention the big profits, and it could also cover up the secret of the blue beads.

However, at present, the spiritual rice and elixir in the mysterious space have not yet matured, and they are not in a hurry to learn alchemy, they can learn to plant first, so as to prepare for the cultivation of elixir in the future.

During the day, Shi Yue checked the books on planting in the basement, and at night he meditated and cultivated.

He rained on the water moon flowers every two days, each time it was more than half an hour, and in addition, Shi Yue had to go into the space every day to check the situation of the spiritual rice elixir, for fear that they would get sick.

Under Shi Yue's careful care, the spiritual rice elixir in the mysterious space grew rapidly, changing day by day.

Shi Yue waited patiently for them to ripen.

During this period, Shi Yue went to the deacon's hall again, bought some spiritual rice seeds, planted them in his yard, and applied rain on time.

There is no time for cultivating immortals, and in the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

Compared with a month ago, Shi Yue's mana had condensed a lot, but what made him happiest was that the spiritual rice planted in the mysterious space had matured.

Xu is because the environment of the mysterious space is better than the outside world, and the spiritual rice planted in the mysterious space is full of grains and bright colors.

Shi Yue took out the scissors, cut the fist-sized pieces of rice, and put them into the storage bag.

More than an hour later, when Shi Yue cut the last paddy, a smile appeared on his face.

Shi Yue checked the growth of the scorching sun grass and condensed tobacco, and after raining them, he retreated.

Out of the courtyard, Shi Yue's imperial weapon flew towards the Zangjing Pavilion.

A quarter of an hour later, Shi Yue landed in front of a huge tower thirty feet high.

From time to time, there are immortal cultivators entering and leaving the giant tower, looking very lively.

Walking into the stone tower, you will be greeted by a wide hall of acres in size, and there is a bluestone counter at the entrance, and an old man in gray with a thin face sits behind the counter, responsible for copying the classic jade slips.

Behind the gray-clothed old man, there was a bluestone staircase leading to the second floor, and only the foundation building monks could enter the second floor.

In the center of the hall, there are seven tall shelves, and each shelf is hung with a marked brand, which is a talisman seal, a magic weapon, a pill, a formation, a planting, a miscellaneous study, and a practice, corresponding to the classics on the shelf.

As soon as Shi Yue walked in, he went straight to the shelves with the pill brand.

There are a lot of classics on the shelves, most of which are all kinds of pills, and some of them are alchemists' alchemy experiences.

Half an hour later, Shi Yue's eyes lit up, and he found the target of this trip---- Bigu Dan formula.

Immortal cultivators in the Qi refining period can't Bigu yet, and they don't need to eat for three days after taking one pill of Bigu Pill, and there are thousands of disciples in the Qi Refining Period in the Taixu Sect, and they need a large amount of Bigu Pill.

Bigu Dan is a low-level elixir, the first elixir that many alchemists refine when they first learn alchemy, and it is also Shi Yue's preferred target.

According to the jade jian, Bigu Dan is made of three materials, which are spiritual rice, blood qi fruit, and purple apricot, all of which are ripe once a year.

Shi Yue has more than 100 catties of spiritual rice in his hands, and what he lacks is blood qi fruit and purple apricot.

"Uncle Qian, I want to copy this jade slip," Shi Yue Chong put the jade slip that recorded the refining method of Bigu Dan on the counter, and said to the gray-clothed old man behind the counter.

"Old rule, copy a book with ten spirit stones," the gray-clothed old man said lightly.

Shi Yue nodded, took out ten low-rank spirit stones from the storage bag, and put them on the counter.

The gray-clothed old man put away the spirit stone and handed the copied jade slip to Shi Yue.

Shi Yue took the jade slip, walked out with his feet raised, and the imperial weapon flew towards the deacon's hall.

As soon as he walked up to the third floor, Shi Yue walked quickly to a counter and asked, "How do you sell a year's blood qi fruit and purple apricots?"

"Three spirit stones for the Blood Qi Fruit and one catty, and five spirit stones for the Violet Apricot are one catty, I don't know how much the junior brother wants," the deacon disciple behind the counter asked with a smile.

"I want five catties of blood qi fruit and three catties of purple apricots," Shi Yue thought about it and said.

The deacon disciple nodded, and weighed Shi Yue five catties of blood qi fruit and three catties of purple apricots.

After paying the spirit stone, Shi Yue hurriedly left the deacon's hall, and the imperial weapon flew away.

After a cup of tea, Shi Yue came to the vicinity of a bare crimson mountain.

The peak is five or six hundred zhang high, it is an active volcano, the crater erupts thick smoke, molten and flames, the air is filled with a pungent smell of sulfur, and the fire attribute aura is very strong.

This mountain is called Danxia Mountain, which is the only volcano in the Taixu Sect, and it is the place where the disciples of the Taixu Sect refine the Dan and refine the qi.

Shi Yue has not yet built a foundation, so he can only use the volcano's earth fire to refine the pill.
