Chapter XVII. Fire Qualifications

Before everyone could recover from Wang Yicheng's rejection of this large amount of spirit stone, they were shocked by Wang Yicheng's novel idea. It is ridiculous that a disciple of Ding Xia actually wants to learn alchemy. Only the second-class disciples in the sect are qualified to study alchemy, and even the third-class disciples are very few.

"What are your qualifications?"

"Under the qualifications, the qualifications of the five elements are all poor. ”

Wang Yicheng said calmly that his qualifications were very poor, and he didn't want to hide it.

"Yicheng, our poor children, how can we learn alchemy, you still accept this spirit stone!" Zeng Wei couldn't help but kindly remind, he was afraid that Wang Yicheng would be confused for a while and miss this opportunity.

"The qualifications are too poor!" Shen Ling frowned, muttered to himself, and finally said: "Tomorrow, you and I will go to the Alchemy Pavilion to find Elder Qinghong, and I beg her to let you learn alchemy." ”

After Shen Ling left, everyone complained about Wang Yicheng, how good it is to accept this large amount of spirit stones, what kind of alchemy to learn!

Wang Yicheng just smiled and didn't speak, and the secrets in his heart were inconvenient for even these good friends to say.

The next morning, the weather was clear, the air was fresh, and the mountains were full of green trees, mixed with the crisp sound of birds. Wang Yicheng walked on the path up the mountain, smelling the fragrance of the grass and trees, and was in a good mood.

Five hundred spirit stones are certainly valuable, but how can they be compared to alchemy. If he learns alchemy, Wang Yicheng can practice the exercises on the stone slab and improve his qualifications, which is Wang Yicheng's plan.

The Alchemy Pavilion is on the mountainside, and it is a magnificent palace. Standing at the door, you can smell the fragrance of the elixir.

Shen Ling led Wang Yicheng into the courtyard, and in the middle of the courtyard was a super huge Dan furnace, five or six meters high, standing in the middle of the courtyard like a small house.

Shen Ling gently patted the huge Dan furnace, making a clanging sound.

"This Dan furnace is not a decoration, but a real Dan furnace, a magic weapon for Elder Qinghong. Shen Ling said with a smile.

Wang Yicheng saw such a big magic weapon for the first time, and he was amazed.

Elder Qinghong is the pavilion master of the Alchemy Pavilion, his name is He Qinghong, she is a female alchemist in the early stage of the alchemy, and she is the first person in the alchemy of the Southern Heaven Sect, and she is very famous in the entire south.

Walking into the main hall on the west side of the courtyard, the first thing that catches your eye is the innermost part of the main hall, and there is a huge "Dan" character written on the entire wall. It is seven or eight meters high and occupies the entire wall. The word momentum dragon flies and the phoenix dances, and the momentum is extraordinary. Under the big characters, there was a middle-aged woman sitting cross-legged, wearing a Taoist robe with a majestic expression, this was the alchemy pavilion master-He Qinghong.

There were dozens of people in the main hall who were practicing alchemy, most of them disciples, but there were also a few immortal masters. There was a Dan furnace in front of everyone, and all kinds of medicinal herbs were neatly placed around them. Learning alchemy requires a large number of materials to practice, and these materials are provided by the mountain gate.

Shen Ling took Wang Yicheng to He Qinghong's side and said with a smile: "Elder Qinghong, hello. ”

"Shen Ling, you're back!" a smile appeared on Elder He's majestic face, Shen Ling was her most beloved disciple.

"Elder, I have a friend who also wants to learn alchemy, do you think it's okay?" Shen Ling said as he pulled Wang Yicheng behind him to her side.

"What qualifications?" asked Elder He.

"Ding is at the lower level, and the qualifications of the five elements are all poor!"

After Wang Yicheng finished speaking, the following disciples who practiced alchemy couldn't help but laugh. When they saw Shen Ling solemnly bringing a disciple, they all thought that it was a genius who had been found somewhere, but they were just a disciple of Ding Xia.

"Hmph!" a young disciple sneered, "Disciple Ding also wants to refine the pill, it's really beyond his strength." ”

Wang Yicheng's eyes swept towards the young man, only to see that he had a proud face, but his face was very familiar, and he suddenly remembered that this was a second-class qualification disciple on the day of the qualification test, named Peng Yan, who was the descendant of Elder Peng in the mountain gate. The reason why I remember him is because of his arrogant appearance, which left a deep impression on him.

Wang Yicheng noticed that several young disciples were showing contemptuous and hostile eyes, and he couldn't help but feel slightly stunned in his heart, whether his qualifications were good or not, and whether he could do alchemy or not, what did it have to do with them? He didn't know that the reason why these young people were so hostile to him was out of jealousy.

Shen Ling's superhuman qualifications and beautiful appearance have become the darlings of the sect since he entered the mountain gate. He was favored by both the seniors in the sect and the younger disciples. Many young disciples found a way to get close to him, including, of course, Peng Yan. Although Shen Ling never lost his temper with these young men, nor did he speak ill of them, everyone could feel the coldness in her politeness. It has never been the case to help a disciple like today.

Elder He frowned and said, "The alchemy of the disciples in the Qi refining period requires both fire wood to be above medium qualifications, especially fire control, which is particularly important. His fire perception is poor, which simply doesn't work. ”

"He works very hard, don't you always say that diligence can make up for his shortcomings?" Shen Ling worked hard to win opportunities for Wang Yicheng.

"Alas, clumsy also has to have a bottom line, he can't even do the most basic fire control. It is not enough to rely on diligence alone, just the materials required to practice alchemy are an astonishing amount, and such alchemy skills are not worth the losses if they are cultivated. Elder He shook his head repeatedly, she had always been stern, that is, the most beloved disciple could speak like this, and ordinary people would have reprimanded her with a straight face.

"Elder Qinghong, he really wants to learn alchemy, can't he be accommodating?"

Shen Ling had no choice, he even used the means of coquettishness.

Elder He shook his head with a wry smile and said, "You girl, you are so annoying. I didn't let him do alchemy for his own good. With his qualifications, he may not be able to upgrade his true yuan power with all his strength, and if he is distracted by alchemy, he will achieve nothing, if you really think about him, don't refine the pill anymore. ”

When Elder He said this, Shen Ling had no choice but to take Wang Yicheng out of the Alchemy Pavilion unhappyly, Wang Yicheng was also depressed, and the two stood relatively silently.

"Do you still want to learn alchemy, I have an idea!" Shen Ling tapped a finger on his forehead.

"Think!" Wang Yicheng dreamed of learning alchemy.

"Now there is only one way, I will teach you alchemy. Shen Ling said.

"You?" Wang Yicheng had never thought of this proposal.

"Hehe, can't I make it? You know that I have been a first-grade pill master for a long time, and now almost all first-grade pills can be refined. Now that I'm learning to refine the second-grade pill, my level is higher than that of some immortal masters, so it's definitely no problem to teach a beginner disciple!"

Thinking that Shen Ling had not entered the mountain gate for a few days, he had become a first-class Dan master, Wang Yicheng was secretly speechless. Although he only needs to be able to refine a first-grade pill, he is considered a first-grade pill. Shen Ling's speed of learning alchemy was too fast, and a genius was a genius in the end.

"Okay! I'll learn alchemy with you, but I don't have anything, the Dan furnace, the medicinal herbs ......."

"All right, just come to my house tomorrow morning, and I'll prepare these things for you. Shen Ling said with a smile, she naturally knew that Wang Yicheng was poor and white, and he didn't even have a few spirit stones, let alone these things.

Early the next morning, Wang Yicheng came to Shen Ling's residence. Shen Ling's residence was halfway up the mountain, and it was a separate pavilion, which was the same as the residence of the surrounding immortal masters. In comparison, the miscellaneous stone houses where Wang Yicheng's outer disciples live are really different.

There was a separate alchemy room in the attic, and a female disciple was hired to serve as a dantong. Sitting in the alchemy room, looking out from the window, the flowers and trees are colorful, the rockeries are exquisite, the pond water is clear, and two beautiful mandarin ducks are swimming back and forth in the water, combing their feathers.

"The first difficulty in alchemy is refining, the medicinal materials cannot be directly mixed together to form the elixir, only by refining their essence, can the elixir be refined. Shen Ling said while demonstrating, she raised a flame in the Dan furnace, and then put a lingzhi plant into it. Press your hands on both ears of the Dan furnace. The formation is depicted above, and the true yuan force can be input to control the flame intensity of the fire mouth in the Dan furnace.

After a while, a fragrant smell was delivered. Shen Ling tilted the Dan furnace slightly, and a dark green substance like jelly was poured into a copper plate, which was the essence of Lingzhi.

Shen Ling took out three common medicinal materials, three medicinal materials of Ganoderma lucidum, flax, and Qingxin Herb, and handed them to Wang Yicheng for him to practice.

Wang Yicheng put a piece of Ganoderma lucidum in the Dan furnace, ignited the fire oil in the Dan furnace, and then entered the True Yuan Force to control it. Just after inputting a little True Yuan Force, suddenly, two large flames erupted from the fire outlet, burning this piece of Ganoderma lucidum into charcoal.

Wang Yicheng tried several times in a row, either the flame was too small and had no effect, or the flame was too big and burned the material. After a few times, Wang Yicheng was exhausted, and his true yuan power was exhausted, so he had to meditate on the spot to recover.

He saw that Shen Ling had refined several materials in a row, and they were all radiant, without any tiredness, and secretly speculated in his heart that Shen Ling was at least a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi refining now. In such a short period of time, cultivating so quickly, this kind of talent is really beyond his reach.

For a few days after that, Wang Yicheng couldn't master the skills of fire control, and he didn't even succeed in refining once, which made Wang Yicheng very depressed. He had seen the snake refining pill fail again and again, and he didn't feel anything, but now it was his turn to truly understand the difficulty of alchemy.

On this day, Shen Ling watched Wang Yicheng scorch a piece of material again, frowned and thought for a long time, and said, "You are lacking in two points now, one is that your true yuan power is too weak, and the other is that your perception of flames is too poor. The first point...... Shen Ling took out a small gourd and said, "There are a hundred Qi Condensing Pills I have refined in it, you go back first to improve your true yuan power, and after a month, come to me again, and I will solve the second problem for you." ”

Wang Yicheng returned to his stone house and began to concentrate on cultivating, one Qi Condensing Pill every two days, and a month later, in the dantian illusion, the true yuan power in the Great Lake had increased significantly. Although it is still far from the middle stage of Qi refining, it has already strengthened several times compared to a month ago.

A month later, Wang Yicheng came to Shen Ling's residence again, and as soon as he entered the courtyard, he heard the sound of an argument in the house.
