Starting from Scavengers to Cultivate Immortals

Chapter 107 Maiden Sword

Three days later, Xu Chen came back with a pale face.

The whole person seemed to have lost a lot of weight, his eyes were darkened, his face was dry, and his head and body were covered with ash and smoke, looking extremely decadent.

Suddenly, he poured a ladle of cold water into his belly, and then Xu Chen sat down on the ground, hugged Xiao Baibei who had jumped on his lap, and said:
"Xiaobai, alchemy is really not something that humans do. I finally know why the ninth senior brother can't learn it all the time, and why the third elder is so thin. I've been sitting for three days, and the donkey can't hold it."

"Wooooow..."

Xiao Bai seemed to understand, nodding his head non-stop, and gently licking his fingers to comfort him.

Xu Chen was very depressed. He wanted to learn alchemy and weapon refining, but he just wanted to have a skill by himself, so that he could be self-sufficient in pills and magic weapons in the future.

After all, his situation is very special. His cultivation base in the Kaiyuan realm has the strength of consciousness in the late stage of the True Yuan realm, and he even has a reserve of vitality no less than that in the middle stage of the True Yuan realm.

In fact, his strength should have reached the middle and late stages of the True Yuan Realm.

But if he wanted to continue to improve his cultivation steadily, he had to have a Tier [-] magic weapon suitable for him, and at the same time, he needed to supplement with pills ten times higher than that of a monk of the same realm, so that he could keep up with the speed of cultivation.

But he never thought of using these skills as a profession, and he didn't want to become an alchemy machine serving the mountain gate, and a disgraced fire burner every day.

Of course, this time he successfully refined a batch of second-grade Qi Gathering Pills, and the harvest was good. He also got two Qi Gathering Pills, and one Qi Gathering Pill was worth five spirit stones at least. Ten pieces of spirit stones are much higher income than refining first-grade pills before.

But even so, Xu Chen was still very depressed.

Obviously, being a burner is not as good as being a dung picker.

The last time I picked up dung, I got a blue jade bead, which was at the level of a fairy treasure.

So Xu Chen began to stir in his heart, wanting to find an excuse to go down the mountain to practice.

It's much faster to get rich outside than on the mountain.

Although alchemy refining is a stable way to make money, it is time-consuming, labor-intensive and energy-intensive. I feel that the effort is not directly proportional to the income.

But at the moment, several senior brothers and sisters have left the mountain and have not returned. Those who stay on the mountain not only take care of the mountain gate, but also have the task of patrolling the Linghu Canyon, and there is no chance to leave at all.

Time flies, and another month passes in a blink of an eye, and it is deep winter.

Xu Chen refined several furnaces of second-grade pills successively. Although they were all the most common pills such as Gathering Qi Pill and Qingshen Pill, the success of all of them surprised the third elder, and he liked it even more, wishing to tie him to the The alchemy academy gave him all his alchemy skills and knowledge.

It's a pity that Xu Chen has been fishing for three days and drying the net for two days. He is obviously more interested in refining weapons than in alchemy.

In the past month, Xu Chen's cultivation growth rate has slowed down, but alchemy refining has made his character much more stable. What makes him most satisfied is that he finally completed a first-grade product by himself from beginning to end. The making of flying swords.

The sword blank is made of a piece of green snow wood.

Qingxuemu is a first-level spiritual material of the wind system, but it has the attribute of ice, so it can be regarded as a very low-level dual-attribute material.

There is a brief introduction in the jade slip sent by the elder brother, and it ranks around the top [-] on the list of spiritual materials. It is indeed a very basic spiritual material.

Because of the foundation, it is relatively easy to process, the hardness is not high, and the attributes are not strong. It can be processed simply with the tools given by the senior brother, and this material basically cannot be fused with other spiritual materials, so the flying sword is as big as it is. how big.

It took three days to process the shape, one day to polish and inlay the spirit stone, two days to engrave the four formations, and one day to polish and trim.

Most of the rest time of almost a month was spent on this flying sword.

In addition to the most basic flying formation, Feijian also has a basic soul-locking formation, a wind-type attack technique, and an ice-type auxiliary attack technique.

Because it is his debut work, Xu Chen still carefully made a sword case for this flying sword, and also carefully named it.

"Green Snow Sword. Made in the 38th year of Song Chengping, Taiyuan Gate. Xu Chen."

But when the thirteenth senior sister Zhao Xuan saw his flying sword, she laughed for three whole days.

Xu Chen is neither happy with things nor sad with himself. Although he is embarrassed, he is more interested in refining weapons, and slowly tries to learn the fusion of spiritual materials and formations.

However, both of these are very difficult. Even if he has the strength of spiritual consciousness in the late stage of the true yuan state, and the calm mind accumulated through continuous alchemy and refining, he still failed several times in succession, destroying several spiritual materials, and the losses added up. No less than 30 Yuan Lingshi.

It was only then that Xu Chen realized that refining equipment was really not a skill that ordinary casual cultivators and Xiaoxianmen could afford, and it was more terrifying than alchemy consumption.

Even though he has a lot of spirit stones now, he still feels pain in his flesh.

And he finally understood why every time he went to see senior brother, he was always in a daze with different materials.

The main reason is that the material is too expensive and cannot be worn out, so I can only use one piece of spiritual material to ponder over, think over and conceive over and over again, and try to design the most complete and perfect shape, so that the formation and attributes are harmoniously matched, and then I start making it .

After gaining this understanding, Xu Chen began to reduce his hands-on practice, and focused on observing the structure of the magic weapon he already had in his hands. At the same time, he repeatedly tried to figure out every piece of spiritual material in his mind. Design, then simulate and match formations, and then speculate on the effect of magic weapon output after the fusion of these formations.

Unexpectedly, after such a period of time, he has benefited a lot, and felt that his experience in refining weapons has greatly improved.

For this reason, he also went to ask the elder brother for advice and confirmation, and he was affirmed by the elder brother, saying that with this level of comprehension, he can be regarded as a real entry.

However, the senior brother was still thinking about Xu Chen's promise to make alchemy. After learning that he is now proficient in refining the common second-grade elixirs, he hoped that he could use soul beads to refine a furnace of elixir to try the effect as soon as possible.

Xu Chen also felt that this matter was almost ready to be done, so he took his elder brother to find the third elder.

Unexpectedly, the third elder was more excited than the elder brother. Just in case, he even called the second elder Xuan and the real person who were still in retreat to observe and emulate together, and at the same time helped protect the Dharma.

After all, the last time Xu Chen just refined a furnace of Xiaoyuan Pill, there was a vision of Danyun. If he hadn't rushed to quickly help suppress the pill furnace, the furnace would have been destroyed at that time.

Naturally, Xu Chen also had lingering fears. The last time he rashly introduced the white qi from the blue-ray vase into the pill, he almost emptied his dantian several times. I haven't knocked on a single grain, and I don't even know what it tastes like.

So this time Xu Chen decided to use the most familiar Great Yuan Pill to do a new experiment first, and if it was successful, he would then use the second-grade Qi Gathering Pill for the experiment.

And knowing that Xu Chen should be preparing to enter the alchemy with the soul orb again, all the brothers and sisters who were still at the mountain gate heard the news and gathered outside the alchemy room to watch the excitement.

But all these people add up to four, the sloppy Seventh Senior Sister, the withdrawn Eighth Senior Brother, the escaping Ninth Senior Senior, and the tenth Senior Sister who lives reclusively like an invisible person.

Among them, Seventh Senior Sister Qu Mei was the most excited.

Because Xu Chen's cultivation base is too low, the last time she refined the Xiao Yuan Dan, it almost exploded, so although she begged Xu Chen, she also knew that it was very difficult to enter the pill with soul power, which far exceeded Xu Chen's cultivation ability. The panacea is probably more difficult to control, so I never urged it.

Actually she was anxious.

Now that she is in the late stage of the Kaiyuan state, she has prepared for a long time to attack the foundation building, and has already obtained a Guiyuan pill, but the strength of the spirit is not enough, so she does not have much confidence to waste a Guiyuan pill, after all, Taiyuan The background of the door is too shallow, and now there are only three Guiyuan pills in total, and they were all brought back by Xu Chen and the three of them when they went to the capital last time. Everyone can't afford to waste it. Two Guiyuan pills.

As for Aiki Dan, she never thought about it.

Basically, in the entire Great Song Immortal Realm, except for the old-brand immortal sects where the two great spiritual monks of Kaiyuqing Palace and Longmen Mountain are located, they may provide a small amount of Aiki Pills for the elite disciples and direct disciples of the inner sect. Fundamentally, it all depends on Guiyuan Pill.

However, the success rate of Guiyuan Pill's foundation establishment has a lot to do with its own qualifications.

If it is the Aiqi Pill, as long as it is in the late stage of the Kaiyuan Realm, there is basically an [-]% chance of success.

But Gui Yuandan only has a [-]% chance at most.

And this [-]% opportunity is almost concentrated among those monks with strong spirit and soul, who use their powerful spiritual sense and powerful comprehension ability to seize the opportunity of breakthrough at that moment, and use the Guiyuan Pill to stimulate the tide of vitality to burst open the life acupoint, Then penetrate the acupoints of the whole body, communicate with the three souls and seven souls, and forge the Dao foundation.

Precisely because it is difficult to build a foundation, the ratio of the Yuan Kaijing in the Immortal Realm to the True Yuanji is more than ten to one.

Qumei desperately needed a pill to increase the strength of her soul, but this kind of pill was either a third-grade or above panacea, or the panacea was extremely rare, and she couldn't get it at all.

She also tried to practice with soul orbs, but failed.

Moreover, none of the three elders could copy Xu Chen's method of entering the alchemy with soul power.

Therefore, the only way for her now is to hug Xu Chen's thigh.

Of course, the two elders and other senior brothers and sisters were all in the same mind, and they were very nervous and excited.

Soon, the third elder personally prepared all the elixir for refining the Dayuan Pill, and each elixir was a carefully selected sample with sufficient aura in the year.

After everything was ready, Xu Chen sat down on the futon, activated the alchemy furnace, put in the spirit stone, activated the five-element array, lit the spirit fire and started alchemy.

He is already very familiar with the refining of Dayuan Dan, so he is familiar with the process of refining medicine in the previous stage. Under the eyes of the two elders and a group of senior brothers and sisters, he methodically put the elixir into the pill furnace one by one, with almost a stick of incense. refining speed.

In the blink of an eye, an hour passed, all the ten kinds of elixir were refined, and they began to enter the alchemy stage. At this time, the test really began.

Because according to his original experiment, it was at this time that white gas was introduced, and then the fire began to get out of control.

　There are still ten shifts today, four shifts in the morning, and three shifts at noon and evening.
