World of Cultivation - Chapter 39
[Chapter 39 The first trial of pills]
“From today, you will follow me to learn alchemy. This month’s task is very simple. Five bigu pills, regardless of their grade, will be given to me at the end of the month.” Shi Fengrong said coldly: “I have prepared ten materials for you, and it is not enough to pay for yourself. Buy spar. The refining method of Bigu Pill is in the study room. You can read all the jade slips in the study room, and you can’t read those that exceed your cultivation level. Everything is in the Dan room in the right wing, and it will be yours in the future. Dan room. Well, you can do it yourself.”
After speaking, Shi Fengrong turned around and entered the pill room. With a bang, the pill room was closed.
Zuo Mo stayed where he was.
This… is this called learning alchemy from a master?
Looking around, there was no one around.
Zuo Mo smiled bitterly, how did he only meet such people? When I learned something from Pu Yao, I never explained it. And now this master is even more excellent. He left him aside and stipulated how much he had to complete.
When Zuo Mo walked into the study, he was completely dumbfounded.
How to find this?
In the study, there are hundreds of jade slips of different colors floating around, like a group of naughty children, floating around in the study. Each jade slip is surrounded by cyclones of different colors, and it is these cyclones that fly around holding the jade slip.
“Bigu Pills!” Zuo Mo shouted helplessly after pondering for a long time.
The jade slips floated around on their own, without any response.
The method is wrong! But there was nothing else in the study, Zuo Mo scratched his head hard, and was at a loss.
Is it using divine sense?
After hesitating for a while, he used his divine sense. As soon as his consciousness touched the whirlwind of a jade slip, something suddenly poured into his mind.
“Elixir medicine spectrum map, written by Xiaolianjie Sanxiu Dongming Sanren, contains more than 400 types of spiritual medicine spectrum…”
Zuo Mo’s spirit was instantly lifted, and his consciousness went to touch other jade slips, and the information of each jade slip appeared in his mind. Soon, he found out how to make Bigu Pills in a jade slip, which contained three of the most basic methods for making pills.
Bigu Pill is the most basic medicinal pill. Its function is very simple. It is to satisfy hunger. After taking it, it can keep you hungry for a long time. It can be regarded as a relatively practical medicinal pill. Divine Sense locked this jade slip, and Yu Jian flew to him automatically. He picked up the jade slip and poured spiritual power into it, and the method of making bigu pills was immediately presented to him.
However, poor Zuo Mo was dumbfounded again!
“Your Majesty Fuye, your minister Huangshi, the fire of the three or three, the cauldron’s qi sinks to the bottom…”
Zuo Mo knew every word, but when he put these words together, he felt like he was in a fog, completely stunned.
Calm down, be calm!
Zuo Mo desperately told himself that he was going crazy. For a long time, he thought that becoming an inner disciple meant that his hard days were coming to an end, and his good days were coming! However, he now knows that he was wrong, and it was so wrong! He just jumped from one pit to another deeper pit, and what made him feel like crying without tears was that he was willing to jump with all his heart! He used to suffer from no one to guide him, but now he has become an inner disciple and has become a teacher, but what is the difference between him and before?
After a while, his mood stabilized.
Zuo Mo, who was completely ignored by the master, came up with ruthlessness instead. Isn’t it just a bigu pill? Isn’t it just alchemy? Don’t you just not teach?
After spending another half day, he touched all the hundreds of jade slips in the study, and counted out a total of 517 jade slips. And all he could read was twenty-one jade slips.
The twenty-one jade slips screened out all floated in front of him.
“Fire Cloud Pill”, not what he wanted, throw it aside.
“Ice Blue Pill”, no, throw it aside.
“Atomization Pill”, lost.
…
It wasn’t until he saw “Preliminary Alchemy” that Zuo Mo’s spirit was lifted and he grabbed it. This is what he wanted.
Hungryly reading “The First Steps of Alchemy”, he soon became fascinated. The things in the jade slip were extremely novel to him, as if it was a new world. “Preliminary Alchemy” does not have too complicated content, it is all about some basic content of alchemy, such as the ratio of medicinal materials, such as the use of furnace, such as fire control and so on.
When he raised his head, the night darkened, and before he knew it, he stayed in the study for several hours.
He let out a long sigh of relief, stood up, and moved his sore neck and legs. His eyes were still a bit dull, and he was thinking about it. “Preliminary Alchemy” is not a high-level jade slip, but the content is detailed, and it is definitely not available on the market. Zuo Mo, who had experience as an outer sect disciple, deeply understood that the opportunity in front of him was rare.
As for whether the master taught him or not, he had long since left it behind, and he began to read it again as if he had found a treasure.
For several days, he was in the study room. But he did not let go of any jade slips that could be read. It may be used in the future, but if you put in more effort now, you won’t have to worry about it when you need it in the future. If you convert these jade slips into spar, you can buy ten Zuo Mo.
If one day you are poor, you can sell the contents of these jade slips to spar.
In the study, Zuo Mo chuckled.
Feeling dizzy, Zuo Mo finally memorized all the contents of the twenty-one jade slips. Only then did I think that the master said that the pill room in the right wing would be for his own use, so he rushed to the right wing with great interest.
The most striking thing in the room is a bronze alchemy furnace in the center, which is about two people tall and has three legs and a round belly. There are a few futons around, a few tables are placed against the wall, and a lot of things are piled on the table. The ten materials prepared by the master for him are also placed there.
Zuo Mo turned around the alchemy furnace, muttering, “It’s really stingy.”
Don’t look at the big guy in front of him, it’s actually just a Grade 1 alchemy furnace. The most important thing in the alchemy furnace is the Lihuo Talisman Formation at the bottom of the furnace. There is a yin and yang gossip plate on the body of the furnace. When spiritual power is poured into it, the Lihuo Talisman Formation can be controlled.
Fire control is the most important step in the entire alchemy process. For example, Zuo Mo saw the “Three-Three Flowing Fire” before, the three parameters refer to the vertical three horizontal three, and the flowing fire refers to a very special kind of flame, and its main flame will roll along the flame path.
Zuo Mo put his hands on the gossip plate, poured spiritual power into it, and sure enough, a flame ignited at the bottom of the furnace.
According to the method recorded in “Preliminary Alchemy”, carefully control the Lihuo Talisman Formation. The Lihuo Talisman Formation in the first-grade alchemy furnace is not a high-end item, and can only produce six kinds of changes. After a while, Zuo Mo will be able to play more proficiently.
While playing, Zuo Mo suddenly felt that the feeling of controlling fire was quite similar to when he used “Red Flame Art”.
Lingzhifu’s five basic methods belong to the Yin and Yin of the Five Elements. “Red Flame Art” belongs to fire among the five basic tricks. From this perspective, the two do have something in common. However, although the Five Elements Yin and Yang used to be popular, with the rise of sword cultivators, it gradually became a separate system, and most of the researchers were loose cultivators.
Zuo Mo didn’t know whether the knowledge of alchemy had something in common with Lingzhifu’s theory.
However, since Sword Intent can be integrated with “Geng Jin Jue”, he would not be surprised if there is any connection between “Red Flame Jue” and Fire Control.
The “Scarlet Flame Art” he bought was very crude, and he had reached the limit when he cultivated to the third level. There was no prompt at all, and he could only refer to the first three levels.
Close your eyes, put your hands on the gossip plate on the furnace wall, and carefully experience the subtleties of the Lihuo Talisman Formation.
After experiencing it for a long time, there is still no breakthrough. He always has an intuition that the two should be combined, but no matter how he changes, there is no response. In desperation, he had to temporarily put the idea aside. In terms of alchemy, he is just a newcomer who can no longer be new. It is too early to talk about innovation.
Let’s make bigu pills honestly first, so as not to fail to hand over five pills at the end of the month, I may not know how my cold noodle master will punish me.
He kept in mind the refining method of bigu pills, and what was lacking now was practice.
The ten materials piled on the table have all been processed. For the female disciples from the outer sect in the courtyard, one of their main jobs is to simply process various medicinal materials. Bigu Pill, the most basic pill, naturally does not involve too complicated processing.
Carefully put various medicinal materials into the alchemy furnace in proportion, Zuo Mo sat facing the alchemy furnace, straightened his mind, put his hands on the gossip plate, and input spiritual power into it.
The bottom of the alchemy furnace emitted a faint red light, and Zuo Mo carefully and nervously used his spiritual power.
An hour passed, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Zuo Mo’s forehead.
He was exhausted. It is quite laborious to maintain a stable spiritual power input for a long time. damn it! An hour has passed, and the medicinal materials have just begun to show signs of melting. According to the signs, after a few hours, it is estimated that there will be no drama.
Thinking about maintaining this kind of spiritual power output for several hours in a row, Zuo Mo felt that it was a big trouble.
After another hour, he was sweating profusely.
Suddenly, his spiritual power was unstable.
laugh!
A plume of black smoke emerged from the alchemy furnace, and a burning smell filled the room.
Huhuhu, there was no time to be annoyed, Zuo Mo withdrew his spiritual power and sat on the ground, gasping for breath. His whole body was soaked with sweat. On the one hand, he was tired from the long-term spiritual power output. On the other hand, he was very close to the alchemy furnace.
He did not immediately start the second alchemy, but struggled to get up and climbed the gray-billed geese back to the West Wind Valley. Fortunately, he is an inner sect disciple, and Shanuchi can also sit on a horse. He didn’t think that just now, he just felt weak all over the body, and he didn’t even want to move a finger.
He had never felt so tired from the depths of his body as he did today. Combat is to gather all the strength of the whole body at once, and alchemy is like peeling the cocoon, little by little, until the last trace of spiritual power in your body is drained. Rao is that his spiritual power is not weak now, but he is still unable to bear this kind of spiritual power input. And if you are not careful, all your previous efforts will be ruined.
Zuo Mo lamented in his heart, from his point of view – as expected, as long as it is easy to earn spar, none of it is easy.
Spar is not easy to earn!
