Chapter Twenty-Five: Breaking Through the Eighth Floor

"Okay, you know each other well, communicate more in the future, and in the future, you will trouble the two junior brothers to guide Senior Brother Di a lot, today please ask a few junior brothers to prepare today's medicinal materials, and Senior Brother Huang will assist me in alchemy. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Senior Brother Qian immediately assigned the task.

Immediately, Senior Brother Qian took Huang Zhiqi into the alchemy room at the back.

"Senior Brother Yan, I don't know what we should do next?" Di Chong asked with a humble face, "Actually, what we do every day is not very complicated, the main thing is to divide the medicinal materials that Senior Brother Qian needs for alchemy according to the number above the pill, and at the same time check whether the medicinal properties of all the elixirs are true or abnormal, and notify Senior Brother Qian in time." ”

"Oh, so we have a chance to learn about Danfang," Di Chong asked with some surprise.

Senior Brother Yan shook his head and sighed, "Senior Brother Di, I had the same thoughts as you when I first came, and after a long time, I will know how difficult it is to think about alchemy by myself." ”

"Please also ask Senior Brother Yan to clarify one or two." Di Chong was a little puzzled.

"Presumably, Senior Brother Di will definitely have his own idea of alchemy when he first hears the Danfang, in fact, the refining here is the most common Qi refining period pill, and the Danfang is not a rare thing, and the medicinal materials are not difficult to get, the key is still in this refining, the Dan production rate in the early stage of alchemy is extremely low, and the probability of refining failure is also very large, it is difficult to have a high Dan production rate without thousands of refining hundreds of times. ”

"In this way, alchemy is indeed not easy. Di Chong sighed a little.

"If it weren't for the sect taking out a large number of elixir resources to cultivate, it would be almost impossible for a person to refine the pill by himself, you see that there are still very few people in our huge sect who can refine the pill in this Qi cultivation period, not to mention the more advanced pills, not to mention whether the Qi refining period disciples like us can be successfully refined, even these raw materials are not something we can afford. ”

Di Chong's face was full of frustration, and the excitement that had just entered the Qingdan Hall was swept away. "What Senior Brother said is very true. ”

Senior Brother Yan saw Di Chong like this, "But Senior Brother Di doesn't have to be too depressed, although it is not easy for us to refine the pill by ourselves, but it is much better than other disciples to be able to come here to do things, at least the pills used every month are much more than those of other disciples, and besides, we can have the opportunity to assist Senior Brother Qian in alchemy, and it is not impossible to be able to refine ordinary pills by ourselves after a long time." ”

Hearing this, Di Chong's mood was a little better. After that, Senior Brother Yan led Di Chong to do the work of sorting elixirs.

"Today, Senior Brother Qian is still refining the Qi Gathering Pill, this pill is relatively simple, there are only a dozen kinds of medicinal materials, we just need to divide these elixirs according to the amount required by the pill. Immediately, Di Chong explained that three of the herbs were divided into certain amounts.

"Hey, Senior Brother Di, your technique is very skilled," Senior Brother Yan was a little surprised when he saw Di Chong's technique.

"I am dissatisfied with Senior Brother Yan, I was born in a casual practice, and I studied medicine with my teacher for more than ten years in the world, so I am more familiar with herbal medicine. ”

"I see, so Senior Brother Di may be able to achieve something in alchemy. ”

"Then I am in a hurry to borrow the auspicious words of my senior brother. ”

From then on, Di Chong began to live a busy and fulfilling life every day, going to the Qingdan Hall to do things during the day, and returning to his residence at night to intensify his cultivation. One of the great advantages of doing things in the Qingdan Hall is that he no longer has to do sect tasks, which allows Di Chong to cultivate with peace of mind.

With the spirit stones and pill resources on Di Chong's body now, plus the benefits of the sect, as well as the rewards for working in the Danfang, there is no problem in cultivating with peace of mind for a few years.

A year later, Di Chong finally broke through to the eighth layer of Qi training, thanks to the two bottles of medium-grade Qi Gathering Pill, which played a key role in the breakthrough. At the same time, his own spells have also improved a lot, especially after Qingdan Hall learned the fire control technique, the control of several spells in the fire system is even more handy, and the spells can almost be instantaneous.

During this time, Di Chong also assisted Senior Brother Qian in refining pills many times, although he didn't have the opportunity to try it himself, but Di Chong felt that refining ordinary pills should still have a great success rate. Di Chong is still very satisfied with the achievements of this year.

It's just that during this time, the work in the Qingdan Hall suddenly became busy, and the task was several times that of before, which made Di Chong and the others feel very difficult, and they couldn't help but ask Senior Brother Huang on the side in surprise.

"Senior Brother Huang, why is this alchemy task so heavy recently, I and a few others are deeply overwhelmed. ”

"It seems that Senior Brother Di is really an ascetic cultivator, you don't know such a big thing?" Senior Brother Huang was also quite puzzled.

"Oh, has anything big happened lately?"

"A year later, it will be the time when the sect will have a great competition of disciples in the Qi training period every twenty years, and it will be carried out regardless of the inner and outer doors, so now at this time, the demand for pills has increased greatly, and many disciples are actively preparing for the battle. ”

"Oh, I really don't know, and I would like to ask my brother to explain. ”

"Actually, speaking of Dabi, it's just foreplay, two months after Dabi is the day of the trial of the disciples of our Tianyun Sect, Qingyun Sect and Izumo Sect in the Qi refining period of the Medicine Valley, and the Dabi once every twenty years is also used to prepare for this trial and select disciples. Each sect will have thousands of disciples to participate in this big competition every time. ”

"Then it's no wonder, this big competition and trial will definitely be rewarded, otherwise so many disciples signed up to participate. ”

"That's true, let's not talk about this trial, let's talk about the big competition, every time the top fifty outer disciples of the big competition will not only be promoted to the inner disciples, the sect will also give a large number of magic weapons and pill rewards, the top three will be rewarded with the best magic weapons, the top twenty will be rewarded with high-grade magic weapons, and the next thirty will at least be rewarded with medium-grade magic weapons, and there are also a lot of pill rewards. ”

Hearing this, Di Chong couldn't help but feel a little impulsive to try. At the same time, he was a little puzzled, "Is this more dangerous?"

"Every time the competition in this outer door competition is very fierce, after all, there are a large number of outer disciples, and more than a thousand people go to fight for the qualifications of those fifty, and the intensity can be imagined. Every time, there are several Jindan elders presiding, and dozens of Zhuji uncles are on the side to serve as referees and ensure safety, although there is no danger to life, there are many people who have been injured and can't get out of bed for several months. ”

"It seems that it is indeed very tragic, so there are so many disciples who have signed up?"

"Alas, now the aura of the immortal cultivation world itself is very thin, and all kinds of spiritual resources are very scarce, and there is no way to get more resources, who doesn't want to go further on this path. Although this is tragic, it is a small drop in the bucket compared to the Medicine Valley trial. ”

"Oh, I want to hear about it. ”

"Every time the top fifty disciples of the inner gate and the top fifty disciples of the outer gate of Dabi will participate in the medicine valley trial together with the disciples of the other two sects, every time they go in, less than half of the three hundred people can come out, and even more than a few times less than a hundred people come out. It is conceivable that the demon beasts in it are powerful, and the disciples are constantly fighting and fighting. ”

"Everyone is picking medicine and leaving, and they are still fighting each other so badly, doesn't the sect ask?"

"At the beginning, they would still be disciplined, and as the resources became more and more scarce, some not only ignored the constraints but encouraged them, after all, these resources are the foundation of the survival of each sect. ”

"Then senior brother, have you participated in the Dabi or Medicine Valley trial?"

"When I first started, I participated in a big competition at the outside gate, and I was brushed off after only two rounds. Medicine Valley didn't have a chance to participate. ”

"That senior brother is about to reach the tenth layer of cultivation now, don't you plan to participate this time?"

"Alas, I'm still a little self-aware of my strength, and I can't get a ranking if I participate, so forget it. Cultivate in peace and stability, how far you can go depends on the will of heaven. ”

"Then where did Senior Brother Medicine Valley come from?"

"Speaking of the medicine valley is also a helpless move of various sects, with the reproduction of a large number of mortals, the number of monks has also increased rapidly, and various resources have been consumed too quickly, until thousands of years ago, after negotiation of several sects, only a dozen Yuan Infant Stage monks joined forces, and chose a large canyon with a radius of thousands of miles to arrange a huge formation with Mo ** force, protect it, and open the Qi refining period disciples of various sects every ten years to enter it to collect medicine and supplement the resources of the sect, so that the sect can continue. ”

"As the number of monks increased, it was later changed to once every 20 years, but it was still far from enough, so the competition became increasingly fierce. But if you can come out alive, the reward is also very rich. As long as they can collect some elixirs, most of the disciples can exchange them for one Zhuji Dan, and some of them can exchange for two or three pills if they collect more medicines, and it will attract a large number of Qi refining stage disciples to join them at one time. ”

"Yes, it is almost impossible for a disciple who does not have the general qualifications of Tsukidan to build a foundation nowadays. Di Chong was also thinking about whether he wanted to participate at this time, although it was dangerous, but if he didn't participate, he would go there to build the foundation, when he would be able to build the foundation, and when would the great revenge be avenged. Thinking of the cultivation that he had just reached the eighth layer, he felt helpless.

"There's no way to do it, without some family power, even small and medium-sized families can't easily get the Tsukidan, not to mention those of us who are from scattered cultivation, it's almost impossible without a great opportunity, I don't have much hope of building a foundation in my life, and I can live the rest of my life in peace. ”

"Yes, those of us who can only rely on ourselves can only fight for it ourselves, how can we get enough rewards without enough pay, it seems that there can be no such thing as a white lunch in this world. ”
