Chapter 834: Retreat and Alchemy (I)
Master Yang wants to retreat and refine alchemy, and in the ears of many big figures in the spiritual world, this is not something to make a fuss about.
But in the hearts of the monks who have ascended in the past five hundred years, this is definitely super big news. From the time they knew about Yang Chen until Yang Chen ascended, there had never been a time when they had explicitly said that they wanted to retreat and refine the alchemy technique. This retreat can only explain one point, that is, after the retreat, either Yang Chen becomes a six-rank alchemist, or there is an elixir that shocks the world.
In the history of alchemy, there has never been less than five hundred years of promotion from a fifth-grade alchemist to a sixth-grade alchemist. It can be said that except for Yang Chen, almost all other alchemists have only completed their ascension from fourth-grade alchemists to fifth-grade alchemists in the first few hundred years after their ascension.
But Yang Chen is an exception, even if Yang Chen's ascension is only a few decades, even if Yang Chen says that the retreat will only take a few decades, but don't forget, Yang Chen has already become a five-grade alchemist hundreds of years ago, when he was still a Jindan stage monk. It's been more than a few hundred years.
People who know alchemy understand that the key to becoming a sixth-grade alchemist is not the level of cultivation, but the understanding and implementation of a series of medicinal materials and alchemy techniques. Then the only thing that can shackle Yang Chen is the mortal environment.
In the case of insufficient spiritual pressure, forcibly refining the six-turn pill has a high chance of failure. Now that we have reached the spirit realm, there is no such problem. What everyone is particularly interested in is whether Yang Chen can break through the sixth-grade alchemist this time.
Yang Chen was indeed going to stay in the sect for a period of time and retreat. After coming to the spirit realm, Yang Chen has been running for the sect, and after getting the territory, he immediately went to the **Heart Conch Water Mansion, and after getting the Water Mansion, he ran into Da Luo Jin Xian descending to earth, and forced himself to solve the problem of divine consciousness.
Fortunately, the unsealing of Worm Elder and Hai Lao bought Yang Chen enough time. At least for a few hundred years, Yang Chen no longer had to worry about the problem of divine consciousness. Xuantian Gate's secret support also allowed the Pure Yang Palace to gain a foothold completely, and there was no need to worry about anything.
However, Yang Chen was also a little tired in the battle of wits and courage with the core high-level of Xuantianmen. Although he faced no more than ten people, those ten people were arguably the most powerful ten people in the spirit world, and they were in charge of the mind of the huge Xuantian Gate.
Even with Yang Chen's caution, he was simply walking on thin ice in front of the core high-level of Xuantian Gate, if it weren't for the experience of facing the new and old Jade Emperors and the Three Qing Dao Ancestors, maybe he wouldn't be able to survive. If you change someone with the same cultivation as him, as long as you stand in front of those big people, you may have already been forced by their momentum, and you will be full of flaws.
Everything is now on track, and now it's time to calm down and practice carefully. Yang Chen knew very well that whether it was revenge or for his future life, improving his cultivation was the only correct path. Iron striking has to be hard, and its own cultivation is not very good, and it is absolutely impossible to rely on cleverness to eat for a lifetime.
In terms of cultivation, Yang Chen knew that he was desperate not to come, and if the Origin ** was replaced by any single one, he would be able to quickly adapt to the spiritual pressure of the spirit world, but when they were combined to become the Great Yin and Yang Five Elements Technique of simultaneous cultivation, the process of adaptation would inevitably be much slower.
As Li Cheng said, if you don't practice 100 million weeks, you don't need to think about truly understanding the mystery of the origin. If you want to truly understand and adapt to the five elements of the Great Yin and Yang, you can only practice consistently. Yang Chen practiced the Great Yin and Yang Five Elements every day, but it could not be said that he had to enter the state of practice all the time, as long as he maintained every moment and every day, it was enough.
The rest of the time is naturally spent on alchemy. Yang Chen said that he really planned to retreat for alchemy, and he had already chosen the elixir to be refined, so he chose the One Yuan Essence Pill, which the monks usually referred to as the Essence Pill.
The Essence Pill is not the most valuable elixir, but it is definitely one of the most difficult pills to refine. As the name suggests, the use of this elixir is to nourish the essence of the human body, although it does not have the effect of reincarnating and changing the spiritual root, but it can maintain the monk's body to the best state.
Usually it is taken when people are in retreat. Generally speaking, the retreat is definitely to impact higher cultivation or achievement, and when you use your brain more, your energy and energy are concentrated in your brain, and your body will naturally be lacking. No matter how high a monk's cultivation is, it is impossible for him to remember to refine the essence of body maintenance all the time in a completely selfless situation, and the Essence Pill will be applied.
During the operation of the medicinal power, the essence of the monk's body is cultivated to the extreme by relying on the medicinal power, which is the effect of the Essence Pill. After taking the Essence Pill, no matter how hard you think about it during the retreat, you will not allow your body to grow old or hurt if you don't get enough nourishment. You know, many people sometimes retreat to the death, not necessarily because there is no possibility of breaking through, but by the time they figure it out, their bodies have decayed to the point that they can't bear their cultivation.
Ordinary monks retreat, a few decades or even hundreds of years is already the limit, and if there are any more, there will definitely be problems with the body. However, after having the Essence Pill, it is different, and it can completely withstand a longer period of retreat and practice, which is definitely a good thing that can be encountered but not sought for by the monks of the spiritual realm.
If you want to adjust the body of a monk with a wide variety of differences, naturally the requirements for this Essence Pill are very high, needless to say, in terms of raw materials, all of them are the best supplements, and the refining method is even more complicated. So many great tonics not only need to be balanced by the monarch and ministers, but also the medicinal power must be able to reach the whole body, the medicinal effect cannot be too strong, and the medicinal effect cannot be insufficient, and the difficulty of refining it is definitely a hundred times higher than that of the Neicha Dan Asking Heart Pill.
The strongest Essence Pill that people have ever seen in the Spirit Realm, that is, the Five-Turn Essence Pill, this is already the limit that an ordinary seven-rank alchemist can reach. Don't look at it as just a five-turn refining system, but the difficulty is no less than refining an ordinary seven-turn pill.
To use a figurative analogy, master's students may not be able to make 100% of the difficult exercises that senior high school students do, otherwise, theoretically, master's students should get a full score in the college entrance examination. In the same way, the vast majority of seventh-grade alchemists may not be able to refine the five-turn essence pill, only extremely excellent seventh-grade alchemists can do it. (To be continued.) )
