Chapter Seventy-One: Alchemy (Ask for Collection, Recommended.) )
If you don't have time, it must be fake, obviously lying there with nothing to do, Chu Qing is also very sensible, how can there be someone to help in vain, he squatted down with a smile, took out a gold ingot of ten taels from his arms, and pretended to be surprised: "Oh, this refining room is really magnanimous, and you can still pick up gold on the ground, senior brother, it won't be you who dropped it, right?"
The old man opened his eyes and glanced at the gold in Chu Qing's hand, his eyes flashed, and he said lazily: "Don't come to this set, it wasn't me who dropped it." ”
Yo, ten taels of gold is equivalent to a hundred taels of silver, and the old man actually only glanced at it.
"Oh, there's gold everywhere, it's really rich, no one wants it, I'll take it." Chu Qing touched two more ingots of ten taels of gold in his hand, thirty taels of gold is enough for ordinary people to eat and drink for a lifetime.
The old man sat up and stretched out his hand: "Bring it to me......
Chu Qing hurriedly handed thirty taels of gold to the old man, the old man didn't look at it, checked it, put it directly into his arms, and said slowly: "Your kid is new here, you don't understand the rules, the rules of the Shennong Peak refining room are like this, except for the two peak masters who personally ordered, the others came, let him do anything, the old man just instructed you to refine the weapon, but he will not consume true qi to help you do things, understand." ”
Guiding the Refinery...... Chu Qing shook the thunder ball in his hand and asked, "I want to refine the sleeping thunder spirit attribute material here, how long will it take?"
The old man stretched out his hand and took the thunder ball, turned it over and looked at it, and said strangely: "Are you taking away someone else's natal magic weapon, but there is still a trace of pure thunder spirit attribute, but it is not easy to refine this trace of thunder spirit attribute, if you have no refining foundation at all, at least go and learn it for three or five years." ”
After studying for three or five years, then what nonsense do I have to talk to you, Chu Qing muttered to himself, and said with a smile in his mouth: "Senior brother Mingjian, I want to use this trace of thunder spirit attribute to refine the natal magic weapon, but I can't wait for three or five years." ”
The old man coughed a few times and persuaded: "For us immortal cultivators, three or five years is nothing, if you learn the art of refining, it will be of great use in the future, I see that your talent is not bad, teach you sincerely, do you learn it?"
Of course, it is good to be able to learn the art of alchemy, and the usefulness is indeed not small, but it is too time-consuming and energy-consuming; if alchemy wants to be of great use, it must at least be able to refine the level of high-level or even top-level magic weapons, but if you want to refine high-level magic weapons, it will take twenty or thirty years of alchemy cultivation, and if you want to refine top-level magic weapons, it will be even more difficult, I am afraid that it will take more than 100 years of alchemy cultivation, where does Chu Qing have this time now.
"Senior brother can afford it, I am naturally willing to learn......" Chu Qing didn't dare to lose face to the old man, but said with a bitter face: "Can you help me refine this thunderball first." ”
The old man smiled and said, "Okay, if you are willing to learn, you can just look at the tuition!"
Chu Qing gasped, his face elongated suddenly, this old man turned out to be a ruthless character, and he made such a detour to ask for money.
Tuition, just look at it, how much does it cost!
Chu Qing didn't have much gold and silver around him now, thought about it, gritted his teeth, and took out two precious medicinal materials from the blessing bag in his arms, which were the precious medicinal materials recorded in the silver font on the Shennong Order, Chu Qing still had more than thirty plants left, such precious medicinal materials were much more valuable than gold and silver for immortal cultivators in the True Dan realm.
The old man's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly took the two precious medicinal materials from Chu Qing's hand, the treasure seemed to be held in his hand, this kind of medicinal materials only need to be simply refined with the power of true yuan to nourish the vitality and enhance cultivation, especially at the critical juncture of each level of the true pill realm, with the assistance of medicinal power can make the level improvement smoother. For example, if you want to reach the intermediate level of the True Dan realm, if you rely on your own cultivation, you will only have to spend more than ten or even twenty or thirty years of hard cultivation, but if you have the assistance of cherished medicinal materials, it will be much smoother and faster.
"Okay, I'll do you a favor!" the old man slapped his hand on the leg, got up and smiled: "You wait here, I'll go and refine the thunderball for you." ”
"Didn't you say you wanted to teach me alchemy, and you couldn't let me go in and have a look?" Chu Qing said strangely.
The old man was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "If you want to take a look, then I can say it first, the thunder spirit attribute refined from this waste magic weapon belongs to you, and the other materials can be regarded as my hard work." ”
What else can be refined from the thunderball?
Chu Qing didn't understand alchemy at all, but he only wanted that trace of thunder spirit attribute now, and he didn't care about other things, so he nodded: "Just do what Senior Brother says." ”
The old man led Chu Qing into the inner room and ordered, "You just watch quietly from the side, don't talk and move around to distract me." ”
Chu Qing nodded in agreement, and looked around, there was only one copper furnace printed with seals in this room, and nothing else.
The old man sat down in front of the copper stove, contemplated and breathed for a while, and when he opened his eyes, the true spirit qi on his body swelled rapidly......
"Up!"
The old man's eyes were solemn, and he waved a few runes and imprinted them on the copper furnace, and then the gas in the copper furnace was full of spiritual flames, and this flame was not the fire of the five elements attribute, but the true fire transformed from the pure true spiritual qi.
"Go!"
The old man raised his hand and threw the thunderball into the copper furnace, and the real fire in the furnace quickly wrapped the thunderball, and saw that the thunderball began to change, as if it had become soft, producing elastic shaking.
The old man stepped forward solemnly, spread his hands, and controlled the real fire in the furnace with the true spirit qi, which seemed to be a bit laborious, and saw that the old man's forehead began to sweat......
The useless impurities in the thunderball began to evaporate, and the thunderball itself continued to grow smaller, gradually changing from the size of a fist to the size of a thumb.
"Crackle, crackle......" The remaining bit of thunder began to flicker with thunder, and the constantly flickering thunder light was separated from the remaining thunderball, and it was indeed possible to feel a trace of spirituality from it.
"Close!"
The old man took a jade box in one hand and a rune in the other, and the lightning flashed in the copper furnace and was included in the jade box.
"Take it. The old man handed the jade box to Chu Qing with one hand, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with the other.
"Thank you, senior brother!" Chu Qing hurriedly took the jade box, and glanced at the things in the copper furnace again, the real fire in the furnace had been extinguished, and the remnants of the thunderball after refining turned into a handful of dust with a glimmer of dust scattered at the bottom of the copper furnace.
"What are those?" Chu Qing asked, pointing to the shimmering dust in the copper furnace.
"Ah, it's elemental dust. The old man said as he carefully collected the elemental dust with a brush and a jade shovel.
"What's the use of this elemental dust?" Chu Qing asked again.
The old man glanced at Chu Qing: "There will be some benefits to adding elemental dust when refining magic weapons." ”
Chu Qing still wanted to ask what was going on, but the old man waved his hand: "Don't ask, the old man doesn't have time to answer you, if you really want to know, you can learn alchemy by yourself." ”
As he spoke, the old man didn't know how to take out two copper furnaces from his arms, both of which were the size of fists, and they were full of seals, which were no different from the copper furnaces that the old man used when refining the thunderball just now.
"This is the refining furnace, and the seal text on it is alchemy, this is all a magic weapon, how about it, let's have one?"
Chu Qing asked, "Give it to me, do you still want money?"
The old man's old face stretched for a long time: "I must ask for money, why don't you give me one for nothing?"
Chu Qing thought about it, alchemy can really be used in the future, and I am afraid that it will be cheaper to buy it now...... So he asked, "What price?"
"Low-grade magic weapon brass furnace, 1,000 taels of silver, intermediate-grade magic bronze furnace, 5,000 taels of silver, don't bargain, for the sake of your two precious medicinal herbs, this is already the cheapest!"
Chu Qing didn't plan to negotiate the price, but he just disliked that the quality of these two magic weapons was a little worse, so he smiled: "Is there anything better, such as that." ”
As he spoke, Chu Qing pointed to the copper stove that the old man used himself.
"Hehe, do you want the old man's copper furnace?" the old man smiled: "That's a high-grade magic weapon, at least 200,000 taels of silver." ”
Chu Qing blinked and said with a smile: "I'd better buy that bronze furnace." ”
After that, he took out a gold and silver ingot worth five thousand taels of silver from his arms, but after buying this intermediate magic weapon bronze furnace, there was really nothing left of the money on his body.
