Liu Feng took Lu Xu into the attic, and what he saw was a hall of more than 200 square meters, in which several tables and chairs were neatly placed, but there was nothing else, which seemed quite simple.

"Disciple Liu Feng paid a visit to Uncle Zhu. As soon as he entered the hall, Liu Feng said respectfully to a blue-robed middle-aged man sitting at the top.

This blue-robed middle-aged man is named Zhu Kong, who can be described as a celebrity in the Zixiao Sect, and his cultivation during the foundation building period, especially his alchemy skills, is extremely superb, and he is one of the few intermediate alchemists in the sect.

The person was tall, with a cold complexion, and a crumpled blue robe, which looked a little unkempt. He has three whiskers on his chin, a ruddy complexion, and bright eyes.

"Well, what are you doing here?" said the monk Zhu Kong, twisting his beard under his jaw.

"Oh, back to Senior Uncle Zhu, that's right, Senior Brother Lu applied to come to you as a disciple of the furnace. Liu Feng seemed to be accustomed to the other party's cold words, and said with a slight smile.

"Oh, be a disciple of the furnace," the monk named Zhu Kong was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then glanced at Lu Xu who was standing on the side with his eyes like electricity.

Lu Xu only felt that the other party's gaze seemed to see through him, an invisible pressure enveloped his body, and a trace of cold sweat couldn't help but break out on his back.

"Only the cultivation of the first layer of the Qi Refining Period, is it one of the three new disciples?" Zhu Kong took a sip of tea and said to Liu Feng lightly.

Seeing this, Liu Feng immediately explained: "Yes, Senior Uncle Zhu, Senior Brother Lu's Linggen qualifications are not good, so I plan to learn something from you." ”

"Oh, I have some ideas. But as a disciple of the furnace, I won't teach anything, do you understand?" Zhu Kong glanced at Lu Xu in surprise when he heard this.

"Back to Uncle Zhu, the disciple understands. Lu Xu replied with a bitter smile in his heart.

"Well, okay, then stay. Zhu Kong nodded, and then said to Liu Feng: "If it's okay, you can step down." ”

"Yes, Uncle Zhu" Hearing this, Liu Feng nodded at Lu Xu and exited the hall.

"What's your name. After Zhu Kong looked at Lu Xu casually, he said lightly.

"Uncle Hui, the disciple's name is Lu Xu. Lu Xu didn't dare to say much, and said respectfully.

"Well, Ziwen. Zhu Kong nodded, and then shouted into the hall.

As soon as the words fell, I saw a young monk in a black robe come out of the inner room, with a Chinese face, ordinary appearance, and an extremely stocky figure.

The young monk walked up to Zhu Kong and said, "Uncle Shi, the disciple is here." ”

"Well, this is a new disciple who watches the furnace, you can lead him over and explain the precautions to him one by one. After Zhu Kong gave the order, he walked into a room inside.

"This junior brother, I am Chen Ziwen, I don't know what to call the junior brother. This stocky young man looked quite kind, and said to Lu Xu with a smile on his face.

"Oh, Senior Brother Chen, my name is Lu Xu. Lu Xu said with a smile when he heard this.

"It turned out to be Senior Brother Lu, please come with me. After being polite to Lu Xu, the stocky young man named Chen Ziwen led him to a huge alchemy room inside.

This alchemy room is about the size of a basketball court, and the temperature inside is very high. There are a lot of wooden shelves on the left and right sides, and there are a variety of medicinal herbs on them. In the center is a fiery red Dan furnace, the whole body is oval, and the surface is carved with patterns of flowers, plants, birds and beasts. There are three stout feet under the abdomen of Danding, which will support Danding steadily.

And there are four unicorn-shaped metal statues around Danding, with hideous faces and beast mouths. And the four beasts all looked at Danding like the moon, and it looked a little mysterious.

"Senior Brother Lu, this is Senior Uncle Zhu's alchemy room, you will work here in the future. In fact, the duties of the disciples of the furnace are very simple, that is, they are responsible for taking care of some chores in the Dan room and sorting out all kinds of alchemy materials. Chen Ziwen led Lu Xu to look around the Danfang and explained.

"Oh. Senior Brother Chen, I don't know what the four things are for. Lu Xu nodded, and then pointed to the metal beast statue that surrounded Danding.

"This is an iron beast that leads to earth fire, because the cultivators in the foundation building period use true fire in alchemy, it consumes too much mana and is not stable enough. Therefore, these statues of fire-initiating beasts were built to draw the earth fire up to alchemy. Our Danyang Peak has dozens of alchemy rooms, large and small, and each alchemy room uses this kind of alchemy that connects the earth and fire beast like alchemy. Chen Ziwen pointed to one of the metal beast statues and explained.

"Oh, thank you Senior Brother Chen for your advice. Lu Xu was secretly happy in his heart when he heard this, and made up his mind to be familiar with the use of this earth fire, so that he could use it for alchemy in the future.

"Hehe, junior brother doesn't have to be polite. Chen Ziwen waved his hand and said, "By the way, Senior Brother Lu, you have to familiarize yourself with the types and characteristics of the elixir here as soon as possible." Your biggest job in the future will be sorting and grinding elixirs. There are many books on the shelves here about elixirs, and you should read them carefully. ”

"Yes, Senior Brother Chen. ”

Chen Ziwen carefully explained some of the problems that Lu Xu usually needed to pay attention to, and after telling him to familiarize himself with the environment, he left the alchemy room.

Unconsciously, Lu Xu has joined the Zixiao Sect for more than two years. During this period of time, Lu Xu has been staying in the alchemy room as a disciple of the furnace, carefully observing the alchemy process of Uncle Zhu and various alchemy disciples, and at the same time reading the alchemy and elixir classics in the Danfang with hunger.

And in the past two years, many things have happened in the sect. Soon after Lu Xu became a disciple of the furnace, the Zixiao Sect recruited a new batch of disciples, and unlike Lu Xu and the others, this recruitment was not a general recruitment, but a selection from the relevant immortal cultivation families of all sizes of the Zixiao Sect. This time, the quality is not comparable to casual cultivation, and there are hundreds of young boys and girls who are all good in their bones and spiritual roots, and they have entered the Zixiao Sect. There were even three "mutant spirit roots" and many teenagers with two spirit roots among them. It can be seen from this that there is a gap between the scattered cultivation and the cultivation of the immortal family in the immortal cultivation world.

The appearance of these new disciples with outstanding qualifications completely attracted the attention of the high-level members of the sect. Even many ancestors in the Yudan period, after inspecting the roots and bones of some people, openly declared: As long as these people can build a successful foundation, they will be taken in as disciples and personally come to teach these people.

As soon as this news came out, it naturally envied the other new and old disciples, and for a while, this group of new disciples completely attracted the eyes of all the people up and down the Zixiao Sect. Even those low-level disciples who started earlier were talking about which genius disciple had improved their basic exercises today, or what amazing progress had been made!

Under the light of so many dazzling rookies, Lu Xu, a disciple from a casual cultivation background, was completely forgotten by the head of the Zixiao Sect and the peak masters of the Nine Great Peaks.

And Lu Xu, a disciple of the Five Spirit Roots, is almost unknown, plus Lu Xu is soaked in the alchemy room all day long, and he easily refuses to go out to meet people except for daily tasks after a year, so there are even fewer people who know him, maybe only Senior Brother Liu Feng and Guo Huai, who is more in love, still occasionally remember Lu Xu.

No matter what amazing geniuses there are in the sect, Lu Xu is very satisfied with his current state, and that Uncle Zhu is also very satisfied with him, a disciple who watches the furnace! After all, like Lu Xu, who can sort out and grind the elixir on time every time and never delays, and is willing to eat whatever hardships he wants, where else can he find it?

So in his spare time, he would point out Lu Xu's alchemy technique.

As for Guo Huai, who was very close to Lu Xu, with the help of diligent cultivation and the convenience of exercises, he finally broke through to the third layer of the Qi Refining Period, and he even went to Lu Xu to talk about it.

However, Lu Xu's cultivation has not progressed for a long time, and most of the time has been spent on learning alchemy, so he has always stayed at the first level of the qi refining period.

Two years have passed, and there is still one year left in the peak, so Lu Xu has to start putting alchemy on the agenda.

Fortunately, in a full year and a half, Lu Xu had already mastered the art of alchemy, and now the rest is practice.
