Chapter 068: Three Years
After an episode, the deacon hall returned to its original order, but this time the outer gate knew that there was a new female disciple named Mu Changning, who identified two hundred and seventy-six elixirs within a quarter of an hour, and passed Uncle Tang's assessment in the most perfect way.
This incident spread in the outer gate, to a certain extent, inspired everyone, of course, some people think that this is a three-person tiger, too exaggerated, among them there are many inner disciples who scoff at this, just as a joke to listen to, and even feel that a female disciple is so grandiose, must be restless, this kind of person also knows that he can't go far on the path of immortals.
Mu Changning didn't know that her name was already famous, and when she got the "Detailed Explanation of Alchemy", she was extremely excited, and she went back to read it behind closed doors.
The divine sense let go of the contents of the jade slip, and a large amount of information poured in instantly, and then heard a crisp sound of "click", the jade slip was broken and scrapped, and Mu Changning began to digest the things left in his brain little by little.
Alchemy is actually a process of purifying and refining medicinal materials with real fire and high temperature, and then turning them into pills in the furnace. The quantity of medicinal materials, the order of succession, the degree of purification, the quality of fusion, and the control of the heat...... You can't be sloppy.
Mu Changning read all the contents, and he also felt ignorant, unable to grasp the outline, and felt like he was talking on paper. But how can the study of alchemy be achieved overnight, you have to ponder it slowly and comprehend it slowly.
Of course, there must be a premise for all this. For example, she has to have a ding furnace, and for example, she has to learn to release real fire.
As long as the monk enters the middle stage of qi refining, he can release the real fire, and in the morning Mu Changning entered the middle stage of qi refining, but because she was in a hurry to go out, she didn't have time to try.
Closing her eyes and sinking into a state of cultivation, Mu Changning used the spiritual power of her body to gather in the dantian, and slowly felt a burst of burning heat in the dantian, she looked inward, and found that the multicolored stone coiled above the dantian was emitting a dazzling red light. The red light enveloped her entire dantian, and the spiritual power in the meridians frantically poured in and squeezed, and then a cluster of small flames ignited.
Mu Changning was overjoyed, guiding the cluster of flames to swim through the meridians, converging to her fingertips, feeling a trace of stagnation, she added more force, and the cluster of flames suddenly broke through the barrier and jumped to her fingertips.
The orange-yellow flame jumped on her fingertips, Mu Changning could feel its kindness, and the flame also swayed and danced with her heart.
It's done!
She grinned, took back the True Fire, and took out the Boundless Falling Wood Technique and the Blazing Sword Technique left by the Pu Clan.
Now that she has entered the middle stage of qi refining, she can officially start practicing the Boundless Falling Wood Technique and the Blazing Sword Technique, one is majoring in spells, the other is majoring in swordsmanship, and Ziyuan Jue is majoring in Yuan Shen, and she has to find time to comprehend alchemy every day, and there are other tasks to be completed, Mu Changning is very busy every day, but his cultivation and strength are also increasing step by step.
After three years in a hurry, Mu Changning entered the peak of the sixth layer of qi refining from the fourth layer of qi refining, and she was only one point away from the last point of guidance, and she could break through the late stage of qi refining.
Of course, the more you get to this point, the more you can't be in a hurry.
In the past few years, she has often gone to lecture halls to listen to lectures, and I have to say that the Great Gate Sect has this benefit, and the difficult problems encountered in the cultivation process will be solved by seniors for you one by one, avoiding many detours, and you can also listen to their cultivation experience and get inspiration from it, which is very helpful to improve her own comprehension, and Mu Changning has benefited a lot.
In the past three years, Wanghua is still in retreat without any news, from the beginning he said that he will retreat for two to five years, Mu Changning is not in a hurry, she has long been accustomed to facing various problems alone in the past few years, she believes that even if she does not see through, this path of cultivation can be steady step by step.
It's just that there is something in my heart, especially when I look at the body fragments that I said in my mouth...... In the past few years, she has occasionally thought about it, but she has never been able to guess what it is.
Mu Changning shook his head and went to the deacon hall to receive the task as usual.
The tasks of Danfeng's outer disciples are roughly divided into two categories, one is the task of ordinary outer disciples, who is mainly responsible for planting and collecting, which is similar to the Tao Ranju commission that Mu Changning did when he was in Cangcheng, and the other is the task of alchemy junior disciples, who require a certain understanding of alchemy, and can go to the Dan room to be responsible for purifying and refining the medicinal liquid.
At the beginning, Mu Changning was still receiving ordinary tasks, focusing on the irrigation of spiritual fields, but with the in-depth study of "Detailed Explanation of Alchemy", she began to receive the task of alchemy junior disciples, trying to purify the elixir, remove impurities, and become more and more proficient in the control of true fire.
When he came to the Dan room, Ji Min had already arrived, waved his hand at her, Mu Changning approached with a smile, and began to refine the newly picked stone lead grass with her.
Ji Min has now entered the seventh layer of qi refining, she successfully passed Uncle Tang's assessment in the third month after coming to Danfeng, plus she herself has a little alchemy foundation, and soon became a junior disciple of alchemy, and worked with her to do tasks in the Dan room.
Stone lead grass is the main material for refining Qi Gathering Pill, and it is very convenient to plant, but unfortunately it is not easy to refine.
The stem of the stone lead grass is useless, and what is useful is the medicinal juice extracted from its leaves, so care must be taken not to mix the melted liquid of the stem into it when refining.
The high temperature of the furnace made them soften rapidly, and when the grass blades melted and the stems were still intact, they controlled the temperature to drop sharply, guiding the medicinal juice to one place, and the stem to another place, and then condensed and concentrated the medicinal juice.
A little suddenness may be mixed with stem juice in the grass leaf juice, such a stone lead herbal liquid in the refining of Qi Gathering Pill has a low rate of Dan, not to mention the low rate of Dan, and it is easy to accumulate erysipelas to weaken the efficacy, so this refining step is very important.
Of course, you can also manually separate the stems and leaves of the stone lead grass, and only smelt and purify the leaves, but this method is clumsy and inefficient, and it is simply insulting and questioning the alchemist's ability!
After three hours of refinement, it is a high requirement for both spiritual power and divine sense, Mu Changning and Ji Min's faces turned pale, but the harvest was also good--they did all three of them alone!
"I said how come the success rate of alchemy in the past was so low! The foundation is not solid, no wonder the furnace is fried every time. Ji Min wiped the fine sweat on his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Changning, after training in the past few years, why don't you try to refine the alchemy?"
Mu Changning shook his head: "Uncle Tang said, the road must be taken step by step, the meal must be eaten one bite at a time, alchemy cannot be promoted overnight, it needs to be done step by step, and when he agrees to be satisfied, it will be too late for me to try again." ”
Uncle Tang treats others and himself very strictly, but strictness also has the advantage of being strict. Uncle Tang is now in the late stage of foundation building, but he is already a fifth-order alchemist. The cultivators in the cultivation realm who could reach the fifth-order alchemist before the formation of the pill were already outstanding, and Uncle Tang was not a person with excellent qualifications, but his basic skills were very solid, which helped him avoid many detours to a certain extent.
Mu Changning is not afraid to spend more time now, this is a long-term investment, and there is still a long way to go, so you can't drop the chain at the beginning-
