Chapter 111: Alchemy Talent
Lin Xuan was sipping fragrant tea while enjoying the murals hanging around, this is a small room, but it is elegantly decorated, it is the reception room for entertaining VIPs in Elixir Mountain.
Lin Xuan had been waiting for half an hour, but he was not in a hurry, from the mouth of the outer disciple, he knocked on the side, and learned some information about the Elixir Mountain.
The boy was still a little restrained before, but seeing Lin Xuan's kind words, gradually, he was willing to talk to him, and won the favor of a foundation building monk, which was of great benefit to himself, and if he could give him one or two items, it would be inexhaustible for life.
Although Lin Xuan does not have a spiritual root, he is smart, from the eyes of the boy, he has already guessed what he thinks in his heart, he groaned slightly, and took out a small sword from his arms, this sword is only a foot long, the cold light is shining, although it is not a spiritual weapon, but it is also hair-blown and broken, extremely sharp, and it also comes with a little spiritual power, far better than ordinary weapons in the mortal world, it is obtained by Lin Xuan from the relics of an unlucky monk.
This sword is of no use to cultivators, it is handed over to mortals in the world, but it is extremely precious, Lin Xuan gave him to the boy, the other party was overjoyed, and he knew everything about Lin Xuan's question, and said everything.
Knowing that several alchemist immortals had recently gone to the Elixir Mountain, Lin Xuan's heart moved......
At this moment, Tong Yu Zhenren walked into the VIP room, and the boy quickly closed his mouth, saluted respectfully, and then retreated.
Seeing this white-bearded and white-eyebrow old man walk into the room, Lin Xuan immediately stood up: "I've seen the master!"
"Fellow Daoists don't need to be polite, you haven't joined our sect yet, and we are commensurate with our peers. ”
Although he listened to the description in the transmission note, but seeing Lin Xuan so young, Tong Yu Zhenren was still taken aback, he succeeded in building a foundation at the age of less than twenty, and in the cultivation realm, he was a genius who was rare in a hundred years. The future is immeasurable, such a person, really want to join the Elixir Mountain?
The other party's reaction, Lin Xuan had already guessed. He looked calm and smiled silently.
"Daoist friends like alchemy?"
"Yes. Lin Xuan nodded and talked eloquently: "Although the cultivation of truth is all-encompassing, but the contemptible people are very obsessed with the art of alchemy, but they have always been bitter and have no good teacher, and they are interested in the elixir mountain." I've been yearning for it for a long time. ”
Although Lin Xuan was lying, his expression was not flawed in the slightest, Tong Yu Zhenren's face was very happy, and he said, "In this case, fellow Daoists, please come with me." ”
Lin Xuan followed him to the front of an alchemy room.
"Please keep the magic weapon medicinal materials on your body here temporarily. ”
Lin Xuan was stunned and groaned.
"Don't be suspicious. This is the rule of the door. Tong Yu Zhenren smiled and explained: "Although Daoist friends love the art of alchemy, if you want to join this sect, you must also prove that you have the talent to learn this way. ”
Unlike the spiritual root, it is impossible to see whether there is an alchemy talent or not, and it needs to be tested. That is, refining the elixir on the spot, if the success rate is high, it will naturally be included in the elixir mountain. On the other hand, no matter how well you cultivate, you will also be turned away.
And in order to prevent the person being tested from cheating, he needs to hand over all the elixir magic weapons before entering the alchemy room.
"Fellow Daoists rest assured, this sect has been inherited for thousands of years, and this credibility is still there. Your stuff. It's just for temporary storage, and it won't be tampered with. When the test is over, it will definitely be returned to Zhao. ”
When the other party said this, Lin Xuan naturally couldn't shirk it anymore, so he handed over the storage bracelet to the other party, and Tong Yu Zhenren put it away properly.
Then he scanned Lin Xuan with his divine sense, and after making sure that he didn't hide anything, he took out a jade bottle with a smile: "This contains the raw materials of the Cleansing Pill, which is enough to refine three grains, Daoist friends can refine them one by one, I will personally check them tomorrow, as long as one grain is successful, it proves that you have talent and can join the Elixir Mountain." ”
As the lowest level of the elixir in the cultivation realm, the marrow cleansing pill is not difficult to refine, but the success rate of those big alchemists is only fifty percent, and a rookie who is not deeply involved in alchemy, three can succeed once, and the talent is already very remarkable.
Alchemy?
Lin Xuan took the bottle, his face remained unchanged, but he smiled in his heart.
God help me!
Originally, Lin Xuan was also a little apprehensive about joining the Elixir Mountain, although he had studied alchemy for a period of time in order to refine the best pill, but Lin Xuan knew in his heart that he did not have any talent, and the reason why he was able to succeed was that the second tempering was relatively simple, and secondly, he had perseverance grass to increase the chance, plus a little luck.
If you really want him to refine the pill, let alone three grains, even if you give ten parts of the raw materials, you may not be able to refine it.
That is, it will definitely be eliminated!
However, Lin Xuan was not in a hurry at all, because he had a blue sea of stars in his body, he could turn waste into treasure, what was it if he failed, he could also purify the impurities from the waste pill.
Bidding farewell to Tong Yu Zhenren, Lin Xuan entered the alchemy room, and the stone door behind him slammed shut.
Glancing at the fireball burning in the center of the room, Lin Xuan's face showed a hint of discoloration, the Flame Mountain is famous, although it is the fire of the leyline, it is not inferior to the innate fire of the monks in the foundation building period, it is the Ding Furnace next to it, it is not a mortal thing, compared with the major sects, the other magic weapons of the Elixir Mountain may not be able to get their hands on it, but when it comes to the things needed to refine the elixir, the entire Youzhou is unsurpassed.
Lin Xuan stretched out his hand and made a move, and the Ding furnace flew over, and then Lin Xuan poured all the powder in the bottle into it, since he had the blue sea of stars to rely on, he naturally wouldn't be stupid to refine them one by one.
Playing a spell to stimulate the fire of the leylines, Lin Xuan began to try to refine the Purifying Pill......
Three hours later.
Lin Xuan opened the lid of the furnace, and suddenly, a burnt paste smell came to his face, and there was no hint of the earthly flavor that the elixir should have, needless to say, failure.
Lin Xuan sighed, although he had something to rely on in his heart, he had indeed refined it with his heart just now, after all, this was also a very useful cultivation technique.
Whether it was because he might be able to use it in the future, or Lin Xuan subconsciously hoped that he could have something outstanding, he worked hard just now, but the result was still a failure.
However, Lin Xuan was only depressed for a short while, and then put this emotion behind him,
Holding the three pills in his hand, Lin Xuan pondered for a while, only took one of them, and began to purify it, other pills did not dare to say, this marrow cleansing pill Lin Xuan was very proficient, not to mention that he was now in the realm of the foundation building period.
After just a quarter of an hour, the color of the waste pill turned from black to white, and the burnt smell was replaced by a wonderful fragrance.
Originally, according to Tong Yu Zhenren's meaning, as long as there was one of the three lower grade pills, Lin Xuan could also join the elixir mountain, but now he had made the middle grade pill.
Of course, Lin Xuan didn't do this to show off, Xiuzhen was dangerous, Lin Xuan had always pursued a low profile, but this time he suddenly did the opposite, but there was another consideration.
When he joined the Elixir Mountain, he didn't really like alchemy as his mouth said, but he wanted the foundation building period of the sect to build the foundation pill that he had accumulated for thousands of years.
Although the Elixir Mountain is famous for its alchemy, refining the elixir is already extremely difficult, and failure is inevitable.
Therefore, before refining, the alchemists of the Elixir Mountain would reach an agreement with the foreign monks, and even if they failed to refine, they would not be responsible.
And except for special circumstances, such as the last time the masters of the Ning Dan period were too arrogant, the alchemists will also do their best and will not deliberately do anything to smash the signboard of the sect.
But no matter what, although their success rate was far higher than that of those monks outside, they had also failed a lot over the centuries, and naturally accumulated a lot of refining pills.
Different from when he was in Piaoyun Valley, Lin Xuan is already a cultivator in the foundation building period, and it is impossible to apply to manage the waste pill room, not to mention that although the waste pill in the foundation building period is garbage compared to the finished pill, in fact, it still has some uses, it will not be littered, and there are even accounts.
If you want to fight these waste pills, there are also methods, such as stealing, but after thinking about it, Lin Xuan felt that this was the next strategy, the danger was too great, after all, the elixir mountain has been inherited for thousands of years, although the overall level of the monks in the sect is not high, but there are more than a dozen cultivators in the foundation building period, not to mention that their alchemy is not free, but according to the degree of cherishing of the pill, a certain amount of spar is charged as a reward.
Let's put it this way, in terms of wealth, Elixir Mountain is not inferior to the three giants of Youzhou at all, or even worse.
With the spars, he could naturally buy array equipment like those sects that were good at making weapons, and there must be many prohibitions in the waste pill room of the Elixir Mountain, and Lin Xuan didn't have much confidence that he would be able to break in safely.
Once discovered, not only will it lead to death, but his plans will also be in vain, so Lin Xuan will not do such a stupid thing as stealing unless he has to.
