"I don't know which senior brother has five hundred years of Xuanbing Spirit Grass? I am preparing to refine a pair of Xuanbing Pill, which has the effect of calming the gods and dispelling demons, which can prevent them from going mad. But there is still a lack of spiritual herbs, I don't know which senior brother has this medicine, I am willing to exchange it for a five-hundred-year-old Red Fire Spirit Grass. ”

"Senior Brother Zhang Zhuo, this Xuanbing Pill is a third-order spirit pill. Once the alchemy is completed, he has stepped into the realm of alchemy masters! I wish Zhang Daoyou success in alchemy in advance!"

The monks were talking eagerly in groups of three or five, and many of them looked at Zhang Zhuo with a look of envy in their expressions.

Not to mention trying to impact the alchemy master realm, many of them couldn't even get together a pair of third-order elixir materials, and it would take at least more than ten years of hard work.

Su Chen listened to the lively conversation of dozens of alchemists in the hall, and couldn't help but prick up his ears, wanting to hear what they were discussing.

"Senior Brother Wang, what are the requirements for becoming an alchemist?"

Su Chen pondered for a while and asked Wang Qiu.

"As long as you can refine any kind of second-order spirit pill, you can claim to be an alchemist. If you want to become an alchemy master, you must refine a third-order elixir. If you want to refine a third-order elixir, it's not easy!"

The gray-bearded old man Wang Qiu looked at the alchemists in the hall with obvious disdain.

Once, he also flattered the fellow foundation building monks of Penglai Immortal Sect in every way, but no small group was willing to accept him, and he was excluded openly and secretly.

Now, he has become an alchemy master after thirty or forty years of penance, and he is also quite a powerful character among the foundation building period monks of Penglai Immortal Sect, and he also disdains to deal with a group of alchemists in the sect.

Wang Qiu explained to Su Chen.

The division of the alchemy realm and the elixir is linked.

Those who can refine the first-order elixir are called alchemists, and this order elixir is mainly used by cultivators in the Qi refining period for their daily cultivation. The alchemists, on the other hand, mainly refined second-order elixirs and supplied them to the monks in the foundation building period.

Alchemy masters can refine a small number of third-order elixirs, which are the elixirs used by Jindan monks.

In fact, Wang Qiu has only mastered the alchemy technique of a third-order elixir "Dragon Power Pill" so far, and the pill rate is not high, but he can be regarded as an alchemy master.

This is the approximate division. It does not mean that an alchemy master can refine all the second-order and first-order elixirs. In fact, an alchemy master would also refine more than a dozen common second-order elixirs.

"What level of spirit pill does the Zhuji Dan belong to? With the strength of Senior Brother Wang's alchemy master, can it be refined?"

Su Chen asked with a bit of curiosity.

"Ahem~!"

Wang Qiu almost choked on his saliva.

When several alchemists nearby heard this, they all looked at it, and they all rolled their eyes.

Asking this kind of question is obviously a newcomer to alchemy, and anyone with a little common sense will not dare to mention the foundation of the pill.

"This foundation building pill is the elixir used by the Qi refining period cultivators to break through the foundation building, and it belongs to the second-order best spirit pill in alchemy theory. But even the alchemy master can't practice it.

Because in the formula of Tsukidan, there is a main medicine, which is the thousand-year-old medicinal material 'chalcedony mushroom'. This kind of thousand-year-old medicinal material, only the Immortal Sect has the strong strength to cultivate it, and Elder Jindan can get such a medicinal material to use for alchemy.

We, the foundation building disciples, have no chance to come into contact with it. So you don't have to think about it. ”

Wang Qiu coughed dryly a few times, helpless.

Exploring the Lingshan River in the wild, you can occasionally find a thousand years of elixirs, but this probability is too low, and the supply is very unstable.

Therefore, the five major immortal sects of Shenzhou were all cultivated in the spiritual fields of the immortal sect by themselves, and it took thousands of years to grow them, and they had a stable supply of spiritual medicines. After a thousand years, the harvest begins, and new foundation monks are born year after year.

And those emerging Little Immortal Sects did not have the accumulation of thousands of years, so they could not refine the Foundation Building Pill at all, and they could not steadily cultivate batches of Foundation Building disciples.

The five great immortal sects of Shenzhou are all ancient sects that have been inherited for 10,000 years, and there are even peerless treasures planted thousands of years or tens of thousands of years ago for cultivating Jindan monks. The strong foundation within the Five Great Immortal Sects is by no means comparable to the small sects.

"Millennial chalcedony!"

Su Chen's expression was shocked, but his heart was overjoyed.

He had five thousand-year-old elixirs and dozens of hundred-year-old elixirs in his hands, one of which was the thousand-year-old chalcedony mushroom. The main medicine for refining Tsukidan.

"Brother Wang, do you know, where is the recipe for Tsukidan?"

"This library pavilion is the largest library of Penglai Immortal Sect, there are many alchemy recipes in the collection, and some Jindan elders have researched new formulas, and they will all exist in this library pavilion. However, if others want to see it, they need to spend a lot of money to buy spirit stones. There should be a Tsukidan recipe in it. ”

Wang Qiu thought for a while and said. Because he knew that he couldn't use it, he never looked for the recipe for Tsukidan.

Su Chen nodded secretly, it seems that this trip is the right one. There are indeed a large number of alchemy recipes in this library pavilion, and you may be able to find the pill recipe for Zhuji Dan.

"By the way, which Elder Jin Dan is teaching today?"

"I am the only three Jindan elders in the Penglai Immortal Sect, and one of the chief alchemy grandmasters, 'Sun Zhen'. This old man's alchemy is amazing, but his temper is notoriously smelly and hard, and no one can get into his eyes. ”

Wang Qiu's face was sad and he sighed.

In the past few decades, every time Elder Sun gave a lecture, he would definitely come to listen to it, and find an opportunity to get close to Elder Sun, hoping that one day he would be favored by this Elder Jindan and become a disciple. However, Elder Sun didn't look down on him, and he couldn't worship this Elder Sun for so many years.

In the entire Penglai Immortal Sect, no one can enter the eyes of this Elder Sun, and he has not accepted disciples so far.

Su Chen and Wang Qiu were chatting.

One after another, several foundation-building monks entered the library and sat in a place.

Su Chen caught a glimpse of Zhuang Bufan also coming in.

...

It wasn't until it was close to noon that the alchemists had been waiting for the long-awaited Jindan Elder Sun Zhen finally came.

"Whew!"

A huge two-headed dove spirit beast roared and flew down outside the library pavilion.

Elder Sun Zhen stepped down from his mount and stepped into the hall of the Book Pavilion.

He was a dignified man, about forty or fifty years old, but he was actually more than two hundred years old. Monk Jindan has a lifespan of up to 500 years, and his face ages very slowly.

I'm afraid that all the foundation building monks here will die of old age in one or two hundred years, and he will still have this middle-aged appearance.

"Disciple to meet Uncle Sun!"

All the foundation building monks got up from the group one after another, looking admiring, and greeted Elder Sun Zhen.

Elder Sun Zhen nodded lightly and started speaking directly.

He taught rather casually, and he didn't care whether the monks could understand or not he could say whatever he wanted.

The most common is fire alchemy, which uses spiritual charcoal, earth fire, fire oil, and so on as the source of alchemy. But in fact, there are also heavenly thunder, cold water, yin wind, soil burial alchemy, and even alchemy with the true fire of the sun and the true fire of the Taiyin, which is extremely powerful. However, only a very small number of alchemy masters can master it!

Today, Elder Ben will tell you about the mysteries of various alchemy methods. The Heavenly Thunder Alchemy Pill is extremely domineering, and it can instantly become a high-level elixir, but if it is not careful, it will be destroyed and incinerated by the furnace, and it is only suitable for a very small number of medicinal materials. The method of burying the alchemy in the soil often takes several years before it can become a pill. ”

Sun Zhen taught the art of alchemy, and it was an hour to talk about it.

Su Chen was shocked when he heard it, and he was fascinated.

It was the first time he knew that there was such a method for alchemy. Thunder from the sky, fire from the earth, wind from the clouds, true fire from the sun... All can be used for alchemy.

...

Zhuang Bufan listened for a while, and then fidgeted.

He heard Senior Brother Zhuang Bai say that there was a Jindan monk teaching here, and he couldn't help but be excited, wanting to hear about the Jindan monk's cultivation experience. The result is that it is about alchemy, not immortal Taoism.

He only cultivates immortal dao, combat skills, and spiritual arts, and does not practice methods such as danshu.

This kind of trick at the end of the immortal path can be handed over to the alchemist.

If he cultivated to become an elder of Jindan, the high-level of the Immortal Sect, why worry about having no elixir to use.

He couldn't help but regret that if he had this time to listen to alchemy here, it would be better to visit the seniors of the Zhuang family of Penglai Immortal Sect, and think of getting two more Zhuji Dan.

Zhuang Bufan glanced at Su Chen not far away, and wondered in his heart, "Su Chen, this guy, listens to it with relish." He doesn't want to go to alchemy, right? The trouble of pseudo-foundation building has not yet been solved, and he still has the heart to study alchemy! It's too late to hold Buddha's feet temporarily!"

He couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

But if the foundation is not built within seventy days, and if he dies, everything rests.

He knew that Su Chen had at least five thousand-year-old spirit herbs and dozens of hundred-year-old spirit herbs on his body. If Su Chen can't survive these short dozens of days and dies, these valuable spiritual objects can't be cheapened by others.

...

An hour later, Elder Sun Zhen's teaching was finally finished.

All the foundation building monks stepped forward enthusiastically to ask Elder Sun about their doubts about alchemy, hoping to solve their doubts.

"You're dirty, and you won't clean up and come back to class. was seen by the other Jindan elders of this sect, thinking that the alchemists were as sloppy as you. What a system!"

Sun Zhen's gaze swept over everyone, and he suddenly frowned and stared at Wang Qiu, and scolded in a deep voice.

Wang Qiu hurriedly fell to the ground in panic and bowed, and said hurriedly: "Uncle Sun, disciple Wang Qiu, I have been immersed in alchemy for the past few months, and I don't know the years outside. This morning, I suddenly remembered that Uncle Sun was teaching alchemy today, and the disciple was afraid that he would miss it, so he didn't care about changing clothes and bathing, so he hurried over. I hope Uncle Shi will atone for his sins!"

"Oh, go back and change into a clean alchemy suit, don't lose my face as an alchemist!"

Sun Zhen's face finally improved.

He ignored the crowd and flew away on a two-headed dove.

"Yes, disciple Wang Qiu remembers the teachings and sends Uncle Sun!"

Wang Qiu's face was full of joy, and he sent Sun Zhen away.

Although he was reprimanded, among all the alchemists, he was the only disciple who had spoken a few more words to Elder Sun, and he could leave a little impression in Elder Sun's heart.

Su Chen was stunned when he saw it, and there was such a method, which was close to Elder Jindan.

Senior Brother Wang Qiu had arrived two hours before the lecture began, obviously deliberately leaving this clothes dirty and charcoal, hoping to be reprimanded by Elder Sun.

After Elder Jindan's lecture was over, all the foundation building monks left the Pavilion of Watching the Sea and Listening to the Waves in pairs.

Su Chen stayed behind and went up to the second floor of the Library Pavilion, wanting to find the recipe for Tsukidan.

On the seventh floor of the Library Pavilion, a large number of Danfang are stored. All Danfang prescriptions are clearly priced.

Su Chen really found a Dan prescription with "Tsukidan" written on it, but it was sealed by a piece of paper. The paper marked that this pill was left by a senior Jindan monk. You need to pay a full 2,000 spirit stones to take the Danfang.

Su Chen looked at the price and almost didn't vomit blood.

Even if it is a foundation building cultivator, it will take several years of hard work to earn two thousand spirit stones.

But he had no choice but to take the Danfang of Zhuji Dan and pay this sum to the disciples who guarded the library to buy the spirit stone of Danfang.
