Chapter 3 Proposing Alchemy
"Listening to your words, it is better to read for ten years, Poor Dao has indeed been taught! Poor Dao has always thought that the snake gall and inner pill of this kind of demon snake and demon python are the best materials for alchemy medicine, but he ignored the most valuable demon beast essence blood aside. It's really eye-catching, and it's a big loss!" After listening to Ye Qiuli's knowledge about the demon beast essence blood and the blood coagulation pill, Changchunzi and the others all had mixed feelings, and once again sighed for their lack of knowledge.
"Hehe, Daoyou don't have to be presumptuous, everyone's background experience is different, and their experience is naturally not exactly the same. Everyone will always have something that he doesn't know, and in the cultivation world, I'm afraid that no one dares to boast that he knows everything and doesn't know something deeply, which is completely a normal thing. Let's just talk about this alchemy knowledge, if it weren't for the coincidence that I obtained the legacy of my predecessors, it would be impossible to know.
After all, they are all the crystallization of the wisdom of their predecessors, and one person alone cannot fully understand them in any case! After all, there are hundreds of millions of materials that can be used in alchemy refining in the cultivation world, and no one can say that they fully understand it, and if they know it, they are happy, but they don't have to be discouraged if they don't know, just study hard!" Hearing Chang Zizi's heartfelt sigh, Ye Qiuli couldn't help but answer with deep feelings.
For the rarity and preciousness of this kind of cultivation experience and cultivation knowledge, after traveling in the starry sky for decades, he has more and more profound and direct feelings, when the amount of this kind of knowledge is scarce, he can't feel anything, but once the quantity reaches a certain level, and the quantitative change causes the qualitative change, it will be of great help to cultivation.
Just like the reason why he was able to successfully deal with the deadly threat of the Nine Sons and Mother Heavenly Demons before, and the reason why he was able to easily obtain many extremely precious heavenly and earthly treasures in the process of exploring the universe, he seized a few fleeting huge opportunities and quickly raised his cultivation realm to the current level, the experience and insight left behind by Lu Yan, Wei Changfeng, Baicao Sanren, Xingyun Zhenren and others were absolutely indispensable.
The process of cultivation is a process in which a cultivator is constantly exploring, constantly experiencing, constantly seeing, constantly comparing, accumulating, constantly improving, and slowly enriching his own knowledge and experience. This is also the most crucial reason why traveling to the infinite starry sky occupies such an important position in the cultivation process of cultivators, and with a wide range of knowledge, the grasp of the "Dao" will naturally become more handy, and the achievements that can be achieved in the end are self-evident!
Seriously speaking, the reason why the human cultivation world has been able to inherit for hundreds of millions of years without decay, has been developing steadily in a healthy and orderly manner, and has always firmly occupied the dominant position in the entire world, and has pressed all the other alien cultivators behind them, the knowledge and experience that have been explored and summarized by countless people are absolutely indispensable, and even the most critical factor in it is not too much to say that it is not too much.
Human cultivators can't learn those divine beasts and demon beasts and carry out bloodline inheritance, so summarizing the useful knowledge and successful experience they have accumulated in the process of cultivation and passing it on to the younger generations of cultivators is the greatest help they can give. Therefore, this kind of knowledge is all the crystallization of real collective wisdom, in addition to one's own exploration and experience, it is more about learning and summarizing the experience of predecessors.
Just like Ye Qiuli, the fundamental reason why he understood the ins and outs of the Blood Condensation Pill so clearly was that there was a detailed record of it in the "Baicao Danlu" he obtained. Among the "Cultivating Immortals and Dragons" series of pills cited there, there is a place for the Blood Coagulation Pill.
Among the more than twenty kinds of elixirs recorded in that elixir series, many of them have been lost in the cultivation realm, and some of them have not been lost, but they are also very rare due to the scarcity of refining materials, and the Blood Coagulation Pill is one of these very rare elixirs.
After getting the cultivation notes of the Baicaosan people, Ye Qiuli also had a deep understanding of his cultivation experience. As a cultivator with a lofty pursuit in alchemy, Baicaosan people have always been obsessed with the elixirs of the "Cultivating Immortals and Dragons" series, and always want to reproduce them with his own hands, so his research on these elixirs has never been interrupted, and whenever there is any new discovery or wonderful experience, he will immediately record it in a book and summarize it into a book.
With such painstaking efforts for thousands of years, coupled with the profound foundation accumulated over millions of years in the Rejuvenation Valley as a reference, the achievements of the Baicaosan people should not be underestimated, and these research results, together with other knowledge and experience, are compiled into the "Baicao Danlu" It is definitely one of the rare treasures in the entire cultivation world, no matter who it is, it is a huge cultivation wealth, and it is a peerless treasure that can help the holder achieve great achievements in alchemy, even if it is not inferior to a complete top-grade cultivation method, and even has a victory.
And now, after the accidental death of the Baicaosan people, all these things fell into Ye Qiuli's hands, which definitely gave him a big advantage, and he had a lot of advantages over ordinary people in the initial stage of cultivation. This is also the biggest reliance for Ye Qiuli to be able to talk eloquently at this time. If he didn't have the backing of the thousands of years of experience and insight of the Baicaosan people, and without the thousands of years of painstaking accumulation in the Rejuvenation Valley to lay the foundation, his ability to understand the elixir spiritual materials would probably be much worse than the person with the worst level in the field.
Cognition of natural and earthly treasures, exotic flowers and fruits, and rare and exotic beasts are all empirical knowledge, in addition to one's own personal experience, that is, through the study of the records of predecessors, and completely relied on the solid accumulation of ordinary times, but it cannot be achieved by leaps and bounds by chance like cultivation.
The reason why Ye Qiuli can far surpass everyone now is precisely because the efforts of the Baicaosan people have already laid the best foundation, and he completely belongs to standing on the shoulders of giants and looking into the distance, standing tall, he can naturally see far.
As the saying goes, for cultivators, no matter what realm they cultivate, their path of learning will never end, and the process of cultivation is actually a process of continuous exploration and continuous learning!
These truths, Chang Chunzi and the others naturally knew all of them, so after hearing Ye Qiuli's emotion, they also nodded in agreement and said: "Indeed, the process of cultivation is a process of continuous experience and accumulation. ”
In fact, compared to Ye Qiuli, who had obtained the profound inheritance of the top masters in the cultivation realm, Changchunzi and the others had a deeper feeling for the world outside the ancient relics. They have been living in a relatively closed and narrow small world before, and their knowledge and vision are inevitably limited, but after stepping into the vast cosmic starry sky with Ye Qiuli this time, they really realized the vastness of the world, understood their own insignificance, and after going through many hardships and gaining many insights, their respective gains are definitely far beyond Ye Qiuli.
Among them, not to mention other things, just the alchemy knowledge introduced by Ye Qiuli before benefited them a lot, not only knowing the wonderful blood of the Great Pill and the Blood Condensation Pill, but also understanding the inside essence of some demon beast cultivation and the difference between human cultivation and demon beast cultivation, and realizing the importance of a strong body for cultivation. And after absorbing and digesting this knowledge, it will obviously be of great benefit to their cultivation.
"What Daoist friends say is good, traveling all over the world is indeed of great benefit to a cultivator's cultivation, in addition to increasing his knowledge and improving his realm, he also has more opportunities to meet large and small opportunities, so as to obtain some extraordinary gains. ...... It's also luck, the cultivation notes of the predecessors that I got under happened to record the refining method of the Blood Condensation Pill, and after collecting enough blood of the big pill, I can also open the furnace for alchemy and refine a few furnaces of the Blood Condensation Pill, and everyone in the Daoyou and others will have a share!" Hearing Changchunzi's sigh, Ye Qiuli couldn't help but nod in response.
Seeing that the essence blood of so many high-level demon beasts was placed in front of him, Ye Qiuli really had the intention of refining the Blood Condensation Pill, this kind of pill he had never seen before. In the record of "Baicao Danlu", the Baicaosan people themselves only refined it once or twice, and the refined pills were quickly used up, and as a result, the extremely rare high-grade spirit pill Tianlingzi left a bottle, but the blood coagulation pill did not even leave a single pill.
"Ah, thank you Daoyou! I'll wait until now to search for the blood of Daimaru. ...... It's just that I don't know what the requirements are for collecting the blood of this big pill?" After learning that Ye Qiuli was going to open the furnace to refine the Blood Condensation Pill, and everyone had a share, Chang Chunzi and the others were really overjoyed and excited, and immediately wanted to search for the Melting Jade Star, preparing to collect as much useful demon beast essence blood as possible.
Even without Ye Qiuli's detailed explanation, with hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation experience, they also knew how much help a strong body could help in the cultivation process, and how precious the pills that could strengthen the body were. Now that they knew that they also had the opportunity to obtain such a superb elixir, they naturally wanted to do as much as possible, and they were ready to go all out to help collect the refining materials.
Seeing that the enthusiasm of Changchunzi and the others was all mobilized, Ye Qiuli was also very happy, and quickly told them the relevant requirements for collecting the blood of the big pill: "The blood of this big pill does not specifically refer to the essence blood of any kind of demon beast, as long as the strength and size of this demon beast are large enough, and the body is strong enough." As for the collection method, there are no special requirements, as long as it is not mixed together. ......”
