Starting from Scavengers to Cultivate Immortals

Chapter 171

A moment later, Xu Chen landed and saw Xuanhe Daoist standing in the small courtyard with his fly whisk in his hands, he quickly drew his sword and saluted, "Master, this disciple has just succeeded in building a foundation, and I have not had time to report it in the future."

Master Xuanhe nodded with a kind face and said with a smile: "I don't need to be too polite, I and the elder Taishang have already seen you when you built the foundation. I am actually very happy that you can achieve what you have achieved today."

Xu Chen immediately blushed and bowed his head, and said, "Master, it's not that this disciple is hiding something, but in fact, this disciple doesn't know what happened, so please forgive me, Master!"

Xuanhe Zhenren laughed and said: "It's not important. What's important is to learn and achieve something. Xiuxian asked, although aptitude is important, but opportunity is more important. Don't think about other things, and you won't bother as a teacher. Work hard on the logistics, and strive to form the alchemy as soon as possible. It is not in vain that I accepted you into the mountain gate and embarked on this path of painstaking cultivation. But you must remember that no matter how good the opportunity is, you must not act recklessly, and you must always be careful. Keep the heart of the Tao, and never lose your true nature.”

Xu Chen hurriedly saluted: "Disciple would like to follow Master's instruction!"

"Yeah!" Xuanhe nodded in satisfaction, and continued: "Your Seventh Senior Sister is worried about what happened in the past, and she is unwilling to go there, and even as a teacher, I can't stop her. Let her go. The heart of the Tao is not smooth, and the road will not be smooth. I hope she can gain something from this trip. I called you here because I want to talk about this matter. You don’t need to worry too much. The ancient city of Yelang is on the border of Southern Xinjiang and the Kingdom of Shu , is not a very dangerous place, you have recently cultivated on the mountain to stabilize your realm, so as not to have a weak foundation in the future."

"Yes, I obey!" Xu Chen could only agree with his hands.

"Then you go first. You should also worry about the affairs of the Alchemy Academy on weekdays. You can visit the two large formations and the properties of the outer sect if you have time. After all, the Taiyuan Gate is different from the past. You are also a lot older, and you brothers and sisters are not hardworking people, I hope you can take more responsibilities in the future."

Xu Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he still could only respectfully accept his orders, and then left.

"Master, this is going to catch a sheep and squeeze it fiercely. I just came back, and I haven't even had a sip of hot water yet!"

Xu Chen felt aggrieved but helpless, turned around and walked towards the alchemy courtyard a few steps, when he saw Senior Brother Nine approaching with a sword like a dog chasing him, he grabbed Xu Chen's arm and asked anxiously, "Is it Senior Sister Seven? Are you going to Yelang Ancient City?"

Xu Chen nodded and said, "Yes, the head just called me to talk about this matter."

Ninth Senior Brother let go of his hands in a daze and said, "Seventh Senior Sister has a difficult heart disease, and she still can't let it go after all these years. No, I'm going to tell Senior Brother about this."

Xu Chen asked in surprise, "What are you telling Senior Brother?"

Brother Ninth suddenly had a strange expression on his face and said, "You don't know?"

Xu Chen said, "What do I know?"

Senior Brother Jiu smiled wryly and said: "It seems that you are really picking up dung and fooling around, Senior Brother has always liked Senior Sister Seven!"

Xu Chen was shocked and said: "There is such a thing, the big brother may be dizzy..."

But at this point, Xu Chen quickly covered his mouth and looked around and whispered, "Senior sister Qi has such a temper, and senior brother is so dumb, the two obviously don't match up!"

Brother Jiu gave him a weird look and said: "It's not up to you to decide whether it matches or not, haven't you heard of crooked pots and flat stoves?

Xu Chen immediately pointed to Brother Nine and said, "Okay, so you like to make arrangements for brothers and sisters behind the scenes."

Brother Ninth's face darkened in an instant and said: "What are you blind, be careful of being beaten, I just saw that Seventh Senior Sister has left, and I don't know what panacea she took from the alchemy hall, you should go and have a look quickly, don't you?" Even the warehouse has been moved, I will tell the big brother first!"

With that said, Senior Brother Ninth rose into the air and flew away.

Xu Chen scratched the back of his head and hurried to the alchemy courtyard, only to see Su Zhao running back and forth among the elixir all over the floor, and the floor began to be filled with extremely messy elixir and herbs. At this time, many of them had been sorted out and piled up separately. It's a lot neater.

"Uncle Xu!" Seeing Xu Chen coming in, Su Zhao hurriedly saluted.

"Well, go ahead, I'll go to the warehouse to have a look!" Xu Chen waved his hand.

Su Zhao quickly handed over a jade slip and said, "Uncle Xu, just now Seventh Aunt left behind a jade slip before she left, saying it is the record of the spirit pill she took away!"

Xu Chen hurriedly took it, and his spiritual sense poked in to take a look, his face trembled a few times, and he walked into the warehouse quickly, and found that many spiritual boxes on the shelves had been opened, and the pills inside were empty.

Obviously, Seventh Senior Sister left after robbing Dantang.

This is in line with the barbaric style of the Taiyuanmen disciples. Wherever they pass, they will not leave a blade of grass, and they will never leave anything that can be taken.

In addition, Xu Chen could also feel the determination of Seventh Senior Sister to go down the mountain this time. She might have the will to die and would not give up until she reached her goal.

Although he had never heard from his senior brothers and sisters what happened between the Fourth Senior Brother and the Seventh Senior Sister, nor had he heard of the details of the encounter between the two, it was his first time even in the ancient city of Yelang. I heard, but this does not prevent him from seeing the impact of this incident on her through such a simple act as Seventh Senior Sister.

Although the Taiyuan Sect brothers and sisters have deep feelings, there is no need for words and communication between life and death to help each other.

But the relationship between Seventh Senior Sister and Fourth Senior Brother is probably far beyond that between brothers and sisters of the same sect.

But the fourth senior brother has been missing for so long, and the idiot of the senior senior brother has not broken through the emotional defense of the seventh senior sister. This not only shows that the senior brother is stupid enough, but also shows that the seventh senior sister has never forgotten the fourth senior brother.

This is also the reason why Xuan and Zhenren chose not to stop them.

If a cultivator who asks for immortality is too entangled in the relationship between men and women, it will be extremely detrimental to the condensed mind. The higher the cultivation level, the greater the flaws in the mind will be. Fall short.

The so-called heart disease requires heart medicine, and Qu Mei's heart disease needs to be solved by herself, and outsiders can't help. If she can't break through this emotional barrier by herself, her future cultivation will become extremely difficult.

Compared with the simple feelings between brothers and sisters of the Taiyuan Sect, the friendship between the disciples of the Yuqing Palace is much more indifferent. Even if they are looking for each other's Taoist companions, they are all utilitarian, rushing to improve Cultivate or rob resources.

When the feelings are no longer pure, naturally there will be no worries, so there will be fewer such flaws in the heart, and the cultivation will be smoother.

Perhaps, this is also the reason why the large fairy gate is stronger!

Xu Chen slowly figured it out, but he always felt that something was wrong.

He is now ignorant of the relationship between men and women, and has no concept of men and women. He is still in the second year of middle school for an ordinary young monk. He is more interested in cultivation, alchemy, treasure hunting, and even farming. It doesn't matter, at most it's a little shy and confused when talking about these things.

Just as he came out of the warehouse, the sound transmission of the senior brother's spiritual sense suddenly sounded in his ears: "Junior brother, I will go down the mountain, and the refining hall will take time to take care of it for me, and I will refine the array for you when I come back." .”

Xu Chen: ...

But then he breathed a sigh of relief, the senior brother is now in the late stage of the True Yuan Realm, and his strength in the fairy world is already considered relatively strong. With him accompanying the Seventh Senior Sister, he thinks it will be much safer.

……

In the following days, Xu Chen's life slowly returned to a relatively peaceful state.

However, it is delusional to imagine staying in the log cabin every day to meditate and practice leisurely like in the past, and to take the fox Xiaobai to see the medicine garden.

The third elder left the alchemy hall to him to look after, and the elder brother also threw the Qi hall to him to help look after him. In addition, he is also the elder of the outer sect. The halls of the wolf valley and several monk gathering places built under the mountain need to be inspected regularly. It made him feel a sense of pain.

Fortunately, there are also a group of senior brothers and sisters who are also assigned tasks. After a few days of slowly sorting things out, the hectic situation has gradually improved a lot.

Because the Seventh Senior Sister almost took away most of the panaceas used in daily life, especially the qi-invigorating pills, so Xu Chen had to step up refining a batch of panacea for storage. As for the Qitang, he was not familiar with the refining , so basically it can only be left alone, recruiting two disciples from the outer sect who have a little knowledge of refining weapons while learning and taking care of them. It is basically useless to refine magic weapons, but at least there is no complete chaos.

More than ten days passed in a blink of an eye.

Xu Chen meditated at night to stabilize his realm, practiced alchemy during the day, and burned all kinds of jade slips such as various alchemy tools, square formations, magic charms and other jade slips learned from Yuqing Temple in his spare time, and his life gradually entered an orderly state.

With the success of his foundation building, his soul became much stronger again, just like the divine consciousness at the early stage of the alchemy realm made him more handy when refining alchemy. In the past, when refining Dayuan pill or Qi gathering pill, most of the elixir was the same It is also refined separately, but now no matter whether it is a first-grade or a second-grade elixir, he can almost put the elixir into the furnace at the same time and refine it successfully at one time, and the abundant vitality also guarantees the success rate of alchemy, and he almost never misses it.

In the past, it took him half a day to refine one furnace of Great Yuan Pill, but now it can be done in about an hour, so as long as you don't be lazy, you can refine seven or eight furnaces in a day.

It used to take at least one day for the Juyuan Pill of the second grade, but now he has compressed it to half a day.

Most of the outer sect now recruits disciples who come to work as cows and horses. Most of them cultivate in the early and middle stages of Kaiyuan, and there are very few in the later stage. Therefore, Xiaoyuan Dan and Dayuan Dan are the main elixir.

Xu Chen was too lazy to refine the Xiaoyuan Pill, and there were still a lot left in the warehouse, and the seventh senior sister didn't like this kind of low-grade panacea, so there were still dozens of bottles, which could last for a while.

However, he still arrested Senior Brother Ninth as a coolie. After all, Senior Brother Nine did not dare to shirk under the order of Master Xuan and Daoist. In addition to his current cultivation base of the True Yuan Realm and a large number of worthless spiritual herbs and medicines for training, Therefore, after a period of time, the success rate of alchemy has reached [-]% to [-]%.

So under the continuous rush of the two brothers who worked as pyrotechnic workers all day long and forgot to sleep and eat, the common panacea in the warehouse of the Danyuan was soon enriched, and Xu Chen had more time to do his own work.
