I have a magical tree

Since he knew that this pill could not be refined in a short time, Xu Dao put it aside. This pill, let alone him, is probably rare in the world.

First, the medicinal materials, then the divine fire, both are required, and the master-level medicine refining method is also required. All three are indispensable. And how many masters of alchemy are there in the world?

Even Zhou Lexian, the owner of Wanyao Pavilion, is probably far from being one of them!

The weight of the word "master" is not just a title. This requires the alchemist to have a very profound understanding of the alchemy and begin to have his own understanding of this way.

The process of refining medicine is actually the same as the process of cultivation of cultivators. The cultivator is absorbing the opportunity of heaven and earth to supplement and strengthen himself, while the alchemist is also looking for the deficiencies of the pill when refining the pill, and then supplementing it through various methods.

At the level above the high-level pill, each time the pill is refined, it is even necessary to draw the opportunity of heaven and earth, and it is no longer just the fusion of medicinal materials and medicinal properties.

The human body is a small world, and the world is a big furnace! In the furnace, all living things are medicine!

Half a month passed quickly. During this time, Xu Dao never slacked off and kept hunting monsters to improve his cultivation.

In Qi Refining, he was still in the fifth realm. The practice in this realm was a bit strange. He absorbed a lot of strange energy, and the bronze giant tree gave a lot of feedback. He still gave part of it to martial arts and part of it to Qi Refining. Therefore, in Qi Refining, his strength improved significantly.

However, his strength improved significantly, but his realm remained unchanged. This was an extremely strange phenomenon.

In terms of martial arts, he made rapid progress in the realm of the second-grade grandmaster, and was not far from the realm of the first grade. If he was given some more time, the first grade would be in sight.

It was the stagnation of Qi Refining that made him quite depressed. For this reason, he read many files in the Wanyao Pavilion through Zhou Lexian's relationship.

Then he discovered something.

He found that no matter how talented a person is, once he reaches the fifth stage of Qi Refining, his cultivation speed will inevitably slow down. This stage seems to be under some kind of spell, and he can't speed up at all.

But when they pass this stage, the practitioners with high talent will speed up their cultivation again, which is very strange!

According to his estimation, if he follows the current progress, he is afraid that it will take at least five years to break through to the next stage. This is uncomfortable. It has been less than a year since he broke through to the current stage. It takes five years for just one stage?

And this is because he has a fast cultivation speed and has the ability to guide and take medicine. Ordinary people in this stage will be stuck for ten or eight years even if they have high talent.

Obviously, it was not like this in the Lost Age! In the Lost Age, he did not obviously feel that his cultivation speed slowed down. He passed the fifth stage of Qi Refining very smoothly, and it took only one year. Then he even broke through the sixth and seventh stages, and it was very smooth all the way without any obstacles.

The consequences caused by the changes in heaven and earth? This is the only explanation Xu Dao can think of.

Could it be that the catastrophe that destroyed the Lost Age had an irreversible impact on the world, so that now the cultivators are hindered from practicing in this realm?

Xu Dao began to think, trying to find out what the difference between the Lost Age and the present is, but in vain, he did not find what he wanted to find.

"Brother Xu, let's go!" Wen Renzhou appeared at the gate of the courtyard.

"Here we go!" Xu Dao suppressed his doubts. The Alchemy Competition will start today, and the Ten Thousand Medicine Cave will also be opened today. This is the big thing at hand. As for this matter, let's discuss it later.

"Brother Xu, is there something on your mind?"

"Well, it's not a big deal. I just have some doubts about practice!"

"Is that so!" Wen Renzhou nodded, but did not ask any more questions.

The reason why Xu Dao has a good relationship with Wen Renzhou is because of this. This person is good at listening, but he will never cross the line easily. Just like just now, if it were someone else, he would probably ask, what is the problem? But Wen Renzhou can resist the curiosity in his heart.

If Xu Dao said it himself and then asked, as long as he knew, he would naturally answer. But he never took the initiative to ask.

People who don't know his style of doing things may think that this person is indifferent and unreasonable, and difficult to get along with. But Xu Dao thinks this person is good.

To put it bluntly, although the two have a good relationship, they are not at the point of pouring out their hearts to each other. It is best for both parties to grasp the right degree.

Besides, Wen Renzhou is not a beauty, and it is not worth him to spend more thoughts. No, even if Wen Renzhou is really a beauty, it is not worth him to spend too much thoughts.

The two just met because of this alchemy competition and found that they get along well. That's why they taste tea and drink wine together in their spare time.

"By the way, Brother Wenren is well-informed. What was the result of the last assessment? Was anyone eliminated in the assessment?" He left the assessment the earliest, and after leaving, he didn't care about it anymore, nor did he go to find out the results of that assessment.

"Yes, there are about a hundred people!" Wen Renzhou nodded.

"Wouldn't these places be vacant?"

"How could that be? These are places to enter the Wanyao Cave Heaven, each one is very precious, how could they be left vacant easily? It seems that they will be reserved for people outside the six counties of Xijing Road!"

"Is that so! It seems that this alchemy competition has a wide range of influence!"

"Of course, in every competition, people outside the six counties can occupy up to 30% of the quota, but this number is not fixed, but fluctuates according to the situation! After such a long time, the influence of the Alchemy Competition in Dali is still very large."

In this matter, the six counties of Xijing Road actually took a great advantage, because the majority of the quotas were still occupied by the six counties of Xijing Road.

"Wouldn't people from other counties feel unfair? The entire Xijing Road is only six counties, and there are dozens of counties outside Xijing Road. This can only occupy 30% of the quota at most. The gap is too big!" Xu Dao shook his head.

If this Alchemy Competition can determine the quota for entering the Cave Heaven in a more fair way, I am afraid that the scale and influence of this event can be further improved.

"This is the luck of Xijing Road!"

"What?" Xu Dao was stunned.

"The Ten Thousand Medicine Cave Heaven is located in Xijing Road, which means that Xijing Road has this luck. In this case, it is natural to occupy this amount!"

Can it be explained like this? It's really new. Xu Dao felt that it was far-fetched when he heard this, but when he thought about it carefully, he found it very interesting.

There is no absolute fairness in the world, it's just relative. Standing at different angles and positions, the results are different.

For the people of the six counties of Xijing Road, Wanyao Cave Heaven is located in Xijing Road. If even the people of Xijing Road cannot enjoy this convenience, wouldn't it be a big loss?
