Chapter 24 Enhancement Pills
In Liangcheng, after Ding Qi sold the anchovy grass and Zizhi, he really scraped together enough money to buy the remaining medicines for refining the elixir. In half a day, Ding Qi bought all the herbs he needed with all the silver, and then returned to Qixia Town full of money.
In the next two days, Ding Qi put all his thoughts on refining this elixir called 'Enhancement Pill'.
Although the refining steps of this elixir are quite numerous. But in general, each step of the refining method is not difficult, even a layman, can be gradually and easily refined, it can be described as quite simple. However, this was the first time he had refined the pill after all, just in case, the pill that could have been refined in half a day, but Ding Qi was extremely careful and took nearly two days to complete it.
Looking at the jet-black pill in front of him, which exuded a strong medicinal smell, Ding Qi was quite excited in his heart.
"After using so many precious medicinal materials, I don't know what the effect of refining this spirit enhancement pill is. Taking the jet-black elixir in his hand, Ding Qi thought.
Originally, he knew something about the elixir that assisted his cultivation, and he also inquired about some prescriptions from Lao Bai. However, none of the pills he knew were as precious as the Spirit Enhancement Pill in his hand, which required so many precious medicines to be successfully refined.
Because of this, he was quite looking forward to the effect of the pill in his hand.
Thinking of this, Ding Qi no longer hesitated, put the pill in his hand in his mouth, and swallowed it.
A quarter of an hour later, Ding Qi frowned, his face full of puzzlement: "Actually, there is no effect! Could it be that this elixir has failed to be refined." ”
Now he has taken the elixir, it has been a while, but except for the extremely bitter taste that remains in his mouth,
But it didn't show any effect, how could this make Ding Qi not frown.
He was very skeptical that he had failed to refine it himself.
Thinking of the failure of refining, Ding Qi's face suddenly became ugly. In order to refine the pill, he spent a lot of effort, and now he actually failed to refine it, which was a little unacceptable to him for a while.
"No, it can't be a refining failure. Thinking back to the various experiences he had been refining the pill in the past two days, Ding Qi shook his head again.
He was sure that in the past two days, he had refined the elixir completely according to the method recorded on the brocade, and there was no mistake in the middle.
Just when Ding Qi was puzzled in his heart, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and showed an expression of sudden realization.
"Maybe, that's the case. Ding Qi pondered the thought that had just popped up in his mind and stood up from the table.
Then, Ding Qi climbed onto the bed next to him, sat down cross-legged, and closed his eyes slightly. Looking at this action, it is what it looks like to usually practice innate skills.
In fact, just as Ding Qi was showing himself, he was now planning to run the Innate Gong.
As Ding Qi entered the state of innate strength, for some reason, a smile appeared on his face. It's as if the fear that the pill won't work just now has never existed.
An hour later, Ding Qi came out of the cultivation state of Innate Gong and opened his eyes.
Now he has figured out the reason why after taking the Spirit Enhancement Pill before, it didn't work.
"What I knew before, those pills used to assist in cultivation would work after taking them. However, the Spirit Enhancement Pill I refined was a little different. Only when the innate power is operated will the medicinal effect be extracted and refined. Ding Qixin asserted.
For this idea, at the beginning, Ding Qi was only a guess. However, the cultivation of the next hour really verified this.
Thinking back to the exhilarating feeling brought by practicing the exercises an hour ago, Ding Qi's face was full of smiles.
He had never experienced such a wonderful feeling when he had cultivated before.
Due to the effect of the elixir, the cultivation speed of the previous hour made him feel that it was almost unbelievably fast.
Although he still can't accurately estimate how much his cultivation speed has improved compared to before with the assistance of the pill. However, Ding Qi estimates that there should be more than ten times the speed.
That feeling of unabated cultivation made Ding Qi addicted, and even made him not want to stop from his cultivation state.
Ding Qi's arrangement today was originally to cultivate innate skills. After refining the Spirit Enhancement Pill, he had nothing else to do.
Now, after experiencing the miraculous effects of the elixir, Ding Qi naturally planned to spend the rest of the day on cultivation.
Then, he closed his eyes slightly again, and soon entered the cultivation of innate skills.
Ding Qi completely refined the medicinal power of the Spirit Enhancement Pill and spent three days. Although the refining time is not long, the effect brought by this elixir is amazing.
After refining the medicinal power in his body, the amount of true qi in Ding Qi's body increased by more than half. Counting it up, it was the amount of true qi that he had increased by cultivating for two or three months in a row. The cultivation speed was more than ten times higher than Ding Qi's original estimate, reaching a level of more than twenty times the normal cultivation speed.
This result made Ding Qi very happy, and even let him have the degree of giving up his usual normal cultivation and going directly to the mountains to pick anchovy grass and sell it for money, and then buy medicinal materials and take pills to cultivate.
However, after calming down, Ding Qi gave up on this idea very quickly.
The reason why he was able to spend such a short time this time to get enough medicine for refining the Soul Enhancement Pill was because he got that piece of Zizhi by chance. If he didn't have that piece of Zizhi, he would have to live for many months before he could refine the Spirit Enhancement Pill.
If you calculate carefully, it is probably not as cost-effective to go up the mountain to pick anchovy grass to buy medicine and refine pills.
It's not every time he can have the same good luck as this time, and he can inadvertently dig up a piece of Zizhi.
If you just rely on digging anchovy grass to scrape together money to buy medicine to refine the spirit enhancement pill, it will take several months each time. The amount of true qi that had increased from the pill refined by digging herbs at this speed was not much different from the amount of true qi he usually brought from his all-out cultivation.
Thinking of this, Ding Qi couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.
Soon, however, he was refreshed. Ding Qi knew that knowing the powerful effect of the elixir recorded on the brocade silk this time was not completely meaningless to him.
In the depths of Qixia Mountain, there are many medicinal materials that are more precious than Zizhi, and they are not like the periphery of the mountain forest, most of the herbs have been picked all year round, and it is difficult to find. As long as you can get into it, you can get a lot out of it. If he had the opportunity to pick those precious herbs, he would be able to scrape together enough money to refine the pills in a very short period of time.
In this way, it became feasible to use pills to increase the cultivation speed.
It's just that going deep into Qixia Mountain is too dangerous. Far from the current Dingqi, the area where the anchovy is picked is comparable.
Although the area where he is picking anchovies now is also inaccessible, it can only be regarded as a peripheral area of the mountains and forests.
"If you can break through to the third layer, or the fourth layer, there should be no problem in entering the mountains and forests. Ding Qi thought expectantly in his heart.
When he didn't get the innate skills, Ding Qi had the idea of going to the depths of the mountains and forests to collect medicine. At that time, he had to take great risks when he entered the mountains and forests.
Now that he has cultivated the Innate Skill, the situation is very different.
Ding Qi knew that innate gong was a very advanced exercise. Just cultivating to the first level, it already has a very peculiar effect. He believed that after he cultivated to the third or fourth layer, he should already have the ability to protect himself, and even if he entered the depths of Qixia Mountain, he would not encounter any danger, and he could collect medicine with confidence.
The most important thing for him now is to cultivate his innate skills to the point where he can protect himself in the depths of Qixia Mountain. Until then, I can only continue to cultivate step by step for the time being.
