Chapter 322: Mid-grade Elixir
When King Dan regained his strength, Chen Cheng was not idle, he was still refining his Pei Yuan Dan, familiar with consolidating the alchemy skills he had learned that day, and refining two furnaces of Pei Yuan Dan in a row, selling a little better than the first day, but unfortunately none of them met the requirements of the medium-grade spirit pill.
The pill is the same as the spirit stone, and it is common to see the low-grade elixir, while the medicinal power of the medium-grade elixir is more condensed, and it will not produce too much erysipelas when taken for a long time, but it is extremely difficult to refine, and the Dan King has never seen it at any age.
It's not that the level of the Dan King is not enough, it is true that the materials are too poor, and the Dan furnace is not good, Chen Cheng's materials for refining Pei Yuan Dan are replaced by Dan King refining, and there is no doubt that it can meet the requirements of the medium-grade spirit pill.
After the success of the two furnaces of pills, Chen Cheng felt that he was not satisfied, and his eyes involuntarily swept towards the stone table on the side, where the materials of a furnace of hundred-year-old pills were placed as a whole.
The same elixir is available in the Linglong Heavenly Mansion, but Chen Cheng is reluctant to use it to refine the Hundred Years Old Pill, because some of the elixirs can be used to refine a better Yu Nie Dan, which is suitable for taking the elixir in the middle stage of foundation building, but two of the elixirs are extremely precious, and they can make up the materials for ten furnaces of elixir at most.
It doesn't matter if the hundred-year-old pill refining is expensive, Chen Cheng can take out the corresponding materials, and he didn't tell the Dan King to avoid suspicion, there is no problem with the elixir that is enough for dozens of furnaces.
Looking at the elixir, and then at the King of Jiumu Dan who had recovered from meditation, after hesitating a few times, Chen Cheng still resolutely decided to refine the pill, and also took this opportunity to test his harvest in the past two days.
The Dan furnace was preheated, different materials were added in stages, and the elixir was liquidated and impurities were removed. Beginning to enter the process of condensing Dan, seeing that King Dan was still recovering, Chen Cheng hurriedly added a little spiritual liquid. Moving on to the next move, nothing seems to happen.
The thick liquid medicine is divided into twelve equal parts, and the vitality must be injected into the Dan furnace to promote the liquid medicine to slowly condense and form, after the twelve round pills are formed, Chen Cheng quickly enters the Ning Dan Jue, and the pill is initially formed. After being wrapped in spiritual clouds, it is suspended in the furnace cavity and rotates.
The pill has not yet been finally formed, but the thick medicinal fragrance has filled the entire secret room, ten minutes later. When Chen Cheng felt that the time was ripe and was about to enter the Dan Furnace, he saw a figure flying next to him, "Keep maintaining." Wait a moment. I'll collect Dan!"
Chen Cheng concentrated on alchemy but didn't pay attention to the surrounding movements, King Dan was attracted by the fragrance of medicine, and stayed by the side to watch the changes, worried that he would make a mistake and remedy it in time, if it was an ordinary pill, King Dan would never take it to heart, even if it was a refining fee, it was just a lesson.
The unique fragrance of centenarian pills. Different from other elixirs, King Dan has two days of experience. It can be judged from the medicinal fragrance alone, but the elixir refined by Chen Cheng is extraordinarily rich, and he has never smelled such a mellow incense after refining the pill for more than a hundred years, so he came to watch.
Alchemy is the most taboo for others to disturb, even if it is a master and apprentice, it is very rare to change hands halfway, if an ordinary Dan master interrupts Chen Cheng, he may turn his face at any time, but King Dan must have his reasons for doing this, he does not dare to be distracted and ask more, and complete every step in the back according to King Dan's instructions.
Half an hour passed, and when King Dan played the pill harvesting formula, two of the twelve pills in the Dan furnace burst one after another, while the other ten pills were intact, and they were put into a jade bottle that had been prepared long ago after being held out by Chen Cheng with vitality.
"Tell me to take a look!" After the elixir was put into the bottle, King Dan was like a child who had been robbed of candy, eagerly snatched the jade bottle, poured out a hundred-year-old pill in the palm of his hand, and only after repeated observation did he pinch the pill with his fingers, and his excitement was indescribable.
The lower grade elixir usually presents a dull matte color, but the middle grade elixir is very different, according to the Dan book, the surface will be glowed, the mellow Dan can be called the middle grade, once it reaches the top grade, there will be a layer of faint runes on the surface of the elixir, and it will not deteriorate if stored for a long time, not only the medicinal effect of the elixir is not lost, but the effect is better than the new elixir.
The top-grade elixir only exists in legends, and there are few records in the Dan books, and Chen Cheng has never heard of any alchemist who can refine the top-grade elixir in Hopeless Star, even the masters of the Sixteen Cities of the Central Plains have not succeeded.
The furnace spirit pill refined by Chen Cheng has reached the level of a medium-grade spirit pill, and he has harvested as many as ten grains at a time, and the hundred-year-old alchemy has finally seen the medium-grade spirit pill, or he personally participated in the harvest, how could the Dan King not be excited.
"Chen Cheng, tell me quickly, how did you do it? Do you know the value of this furnace elixir? This is a medium-grade elixir, and the essence of the elixir is not wasted in the slightest, but it's a pity...... If the level is a little higher, maybe you can really refine the legendary top-grade elixir. ”
King Dan's voice trembled a little when he spoke excitedly, he was not satisfied with getting the medium-grade elixir, and he hoped to get the high-grade elixir.
The high-grade elixir is the ultimate dream of every alchemist, if Chen Cheng can still refine the medium-grade elixir, his alchemy level will definitely surpass the Dan King, but in the face of doubts, he doesn't know how to explain, the secret of the spiritual liquid must not be revealed, so he has to excuse the reason for luck.
"If I didn't listen to your command, how could I refine a medium-grade spirit pill, this is all a credit, and it has nothing to do with me. Chen Cheng denied it.
King Dan shook his head and said: "Don't be presumptuous, smell the Dan incense is different, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop for a while, and this furnace of Dan will cost, by the way, I interrupted you just now because I didn't have enough time to explain to you, now it's time to talk about what the problem is......"
Chen Cheng's alchemy talent surpassed all the disciples of the Elixir Mountain, as long as he was willing, King Dan really wanted to accept him as his closed disciple, and handed him over hand to him, and he was bound to train him to become the successor of the Elixir Mountain, but Chen Cheng was already in the middle stage of foundation building, and King Dan was embarrassed to say anything.
In the next time, King Dan was explaining the experience of alchemy, Chen Cheng compared the experience learned in the alchemy book of Hopeless Star, summarized and summarized, as long as he brought up the things he didn't understand, King Dan would give him a satisfactory answer, and the two of them took the Danfang secret room as a classroom.
Three hours later, King Jiumu Dan twisted his beard in his hand, a smile of relief appeared on his face, and asked tentatively, "How about it?" Why don't you join my elixir mountain, and there will be no problem in becoming a Supreme Elder with your cultivation!"
"You are always a killing, you all know that your sect does not determine your status based on the level of cultivation, if you hadn't learned so much content in the past two days, how much difference would there be between me and a beginner disciple, and when I reach your level, it will be about the same. ”
It is definitely a proud thing to be recognized by King Dan in terms of alchemy, this has nothing to do with cultivation, Chen Cheng is not exempt from vulgarity, but he can still distinguish a few catties and taels, and he will not be excited because of King Dan's praise.
The improvement of the quality of the elixir is mainly due to the spiritual liquid, and secondly, it is inseparable from the experience of the Dan King, after the explanation just now, Chen Cheng realized his personal shortcomings, and the improvement of the answer is not achieved overnight, and after going back, he will be able to refine the medium-grade elixir by himself.
A day later, Chen Cheng and King Dan walked out of the Dan room together, came to the small reception room and sat down, tasting the homemade spiritual tea from the Elixir Mountain, King Dan sighed and said: "It would be good if I saw you in the early years, after refining the Nine Furnaces Hundred Years Old Pill, I feel that I am dozens of years younger, but the years are not forgiving, and I will ...... after twenty or thirty years."
"Don't say this kind of thing, decades is still a long time, I'm not yet thirty years old, from not knowing anything to cultivating now, I believe you are faster than me, there is still great hope for breaking through to Jindan in thirty years, don't be discouraged." Chen Cheng comforted.
"Why are you in a hurry to leave? If you don't wait for Miss Lin to come back and leave together, she won't be angry, right?" King Jiu Mu Dan half-jokingly diverted the topic, for the old man who was about to live for a long time, no one wanted to talk more about age.
Chen Cheng smiled, "It has always been difficult for her to adapt to the lifestyle of the outside world, and it is also a good thing to live in the small enchantment for a while." ”
King Dan nodded, agreeing with Chen Cheng's statement, not only Lin Wanru alone, most of the disciples of the Small Enchantment Realm China were not suitable for the outside world life when they went out to practice, he just asked casually, but what he was really interested in was the matter of the spirit pill.
A total of nine furnaces of 100-year-old pills were refined, and a total of 64 pills of spirit pills were harvested, 10 pills of medium-grade spirit pills, 54 pills of low-grade spirit pills, and one pill was taken by Danwang as a test drug, and there were 53 pills left.
As a reward agreed in advance, King Dan got a total of ten low-grade elixirs and two medium-grade elixirs, while the remaining eight mid-grade elixirs Chen Cheng would definitely not sell, and the rest of the hundred-year-old pills could be sold depending on the situation, depending on whether these people could afford the price.
Chen Cheng is not short of spirit stones, and the total resources in the hands of all sects are not as much as him, dozens of pills are nothing to him, even if he gives them away, there is not much loss, but in the eyes of others, it is a different matter, especially these people who have suffered hard to break through.
Among the older generation of foundation building monks in the small enchantment, there are a lot of people like Lu Shengming, and consuming the resources of the entire sect can indeed allow most of them to break through to the middle stage of foundation building, but after that, the sect has become nothing, and the elder sect master with a little conscience will not choose to do this.
The conditions given by Chen Cheng are more flexible, it can be a spirit stone, it can be a refining material, it can also be a cherished spirit grass, and it can even be exchanged for cultivation techniques, spell know-how, and relic news, Chen Cheng has his own estimation standard, he thinks that he is fair enough, and whether he is willing or not is what the other party wants to consider, and it has nothing to do with him.
After Chen Cheng came out of the Dan Room, he contacted Lu Shengming as soon as possible, and wanted to exchange six pills for the jade slip in his hand, but after thinking about it again, he decided to only exchange one place, he had Linglong Heavenly Mansion, and he could take Lin Wanru into it together, and the jade slip was just a key to enter the treasure, and it didn't matter after entering.
It's not that Chen Cheng is cheating and cheating, and the other party didn't say that he couldn't bring people in, which can be regarded as fair and fair, if he gets the jade slip, in case the other party has reservations, he will be the one who suffers.
When Lu Shengming rushed to the Elixir Mountain, he didn't mention that he was happy, in order to find a way to break through, he went through great trouble and asked countless people, today his dream has finally come true, and it is not a loss for him, if he does not break through the middle stage of foundation building, he does not dare to go to hunt for treasure, and it is a waste for Yu Jian to stay in his hands.
