Immortal Path Evergreen

Chapter 218 Letter from Chen Hongyuan

Miaozhen Dan is similar to Sanyang Dan. It is also a spiritual elixir that can help break through the realm, but the effect is better than Sanyang Dan, and the price is of course more expensive.

The price of Sanyang Pill is about two hundred spirit stones, and the price of Miaozhen Pill is slightly higher. It is about three hundred spirit stones each, which is not as good as the third-level low-grade Moon Watching Pill.

The price of a spiritual elixir does not necessarily mean that it is high if it is of a higher grade. The Foundation Establishment Pill is only a third-level top-grade pill, and its price exceeds that of most fourth-level elixirs.

Even ordinary fifth-level elixirs are not as expensive as foundation-building elixirs.

Zhang Zhixuan has now reached the sixth level of foundation building, and has just taken the third-level qi-replenishing pill to restore mana. There is already some erysipelas in his body. Before the erysipelas is resolved, he will not take any spiritual pills easily.

Even though Miao Zhen Dan was a spiritual elixir that he personally refined, he clearly knew the advantages and disadvantages of this elixir, as well as its hidden dangers of erysipelas.

According to Zhang Zhixuan's level of mana, a Miaozhen Pill would be of very little help to him, and would not be able to help him break through the late stage of foundation building at all. If you take a few more pills to clear the barrier at the same time, you may accumulate too much erysipelas, which will hinder the opening of the Purple Mansion.

Even if you successfully break through and become a late-stage foundation-building monk a few years in advance, this kind of eagerness for quick success will damage the monk's foundation and will not help at all in the future.

Zhang Zhixuan put away three wonderful pills and put them into the family treasury to exchange for nine hundred good deeds. In order to refine the elixir this time, Zhang Zhixuan had already expended one thousand two hundred good deeds, not counting the Qi-tonifying elixir he entrusted Han Yan to redeem.

Generally, you will lose a lot of money when refining this kind of elixir that exceeds your alchemy level. Zhang Zhixuan's performance this time has been very good. For the first time he refined the third-level middle-grade elixir, the elixir success rate reached 30%. It can be considered that more than half of the cost has been recovered.

The reason why his alchemy refining went so smoothly this time was mainly due to the large-scale refining of Locust Spirit Powder in the past few years.

Refining dozens of furnaces of Locust Spirit Powder gave Zhang Zhixuan a lot of experience in refining third-level elixirs. In addition, he has been preparing for more than two years, has figured out all aspects of this elixir, and his understanding of its pharmacology has become quite mature.

Not long after the elixir was refined, a letter came back from Qingxuanzong. The letter was from Chen Hongyuan, Zhang Zhixuan’s friend in Qingxuanzong.

Zhang Zhixuan and Chen Hongyuan have known each other for almost thirty years. Although the two are very different in age, they got along well after several interactions and eventually became good friends.

After Zhang Zhixuan introduced Zhang Sidao to Chen Hongyuan's sect, the relationship between the two parties became more advanced.

More than twenty years later, Chen Hongyuan's weapon refining skills have improved again, and he became a third-level high-grade weapon refiner two years ago.

However, he is already very old, and there is basically no possibility of opening the Zifu. His lifespan is less than a year. If he could be a hundred years younger and have this level of weapon refining skills, his status in the sect would not be lower than Han Yan.

Chen Hongyuan's letter was mainly because he exchanged a piece of Kongming Stone from the Qingxuan Sect's General Affairs Hall, hoping to use this Kongming Stone to repair Zhang Zhixuan's Poison Dragon Boat.

Since the Battle of Chaoyin Mountain, Zhang Zhixuan's Poison Dragon Boat was destroyed by Hongshan Sect monks. Not only the flags and flags were damaged, but even the keel was cut off.

The most important damage was that there was a crack in the Kongming Stone.

By the time Zhang Zhixuan brought the Poison Dragon Boat to Chen Hongyuan, the Kongming Stone could not hold up and was completely damaged.

Without the Kongming Stone, this magic weapon loses its internal space and loses the ability to carry people. Without this ability, this flying magic weapon loses its maximum effectiveness and is basically useless.

There is no Kongming Stone in Yu State, and even Wu State does not have this kind of mineral vein. As the saying goes, rare things are more valuable. This kind of spiritual object comes from far away, so the price is of course more expensive.

In the entire Yu Kingdom, except for the four major sects that have channels to obtain some Kongming Stones to refine magic weapons, other forces simply do not have this ability.

Even for top Zifu monks like Ancestor Heishan Liang, if they want Kongming Stone, they can only exchange it with Qingxuanzong at a huge price.

Two years ago, Li Zigong of the Qingxuan Sect went to the Song Dynasty and obtained some Kongming Stones. Although this kind of spiritual wealth with spatial attributes is relatively rare, Chen Hongyuan still used his status as a third-level weapon refiner to follow the sect. The General Affairs Hall brought a piece.

This Kongming Stone is larger than the Kongming Stone he used to refine the Poison Dragon Boat last time. If it is combined with some other materials, this flying magic weapon will have more space.

Seeing that there was hope for the restoration of the Poison Dragon Boat, Zhang Zhixuan hurried to Qingxuanzong. He went directly to Qingyangfang City and found that the person who looked after Chen Hongyuan's store was his nephew Zhang Sidao.

Zhang Sidao is now thirty-seven years old and has married a wife and has children in Qingxuanzong.

Seeing Zhang Zhixuan come in, his wife quickly stood up, bowed respectfully, and said to Zhang Sidao at the back of the hall: "Si Dao, Uncle Fourteen is here, when will you finish your work?"

Then he said to Zhang Zhixuan enthusiastically: "Uncle Fourteen, please sit down first. A few days ago, the sect distributed some pieces of third-level spiritual tea to the master. I will brew one for you and you can try it first."

Zhang Sidao's wife is a member of Chen Hongyuan's clan, named Chen Weilan, but she is far away from Chen Hong by blood. Although the Chen family has been rooted in Qingxuan Sect for many years, their number of mortals is far less than that of the Zhang family, and monks with spiritual roots are even more rare.

In the entire Chen Hongyuan clan, there are only four or five monks with spiritual roots.

Of course, Chen Hongyuan can take care of just a few people, and the relationship is much closer than usual.

Chen Hongyuan accepted several disciples in his early years, but none of these disciples were able to establish the foundation. Now they are old and frail, and most of them have passed away.

He also had the strictest requirements for Zhang Sidao, his last disciple.

When a cultivator loses his true yang, it is an obstacle to building a foundation. Although many cultivators who have established a family can successfully build a foundation, the probability is still lower than that of cultivators who have lost their original yang.

After Zhang Sidao became Chen Hongyuan's master, he had a lot of contact with Chen Weilan, and after a while, he had this intention. Although Chen Hongyuan was a little reluctant, he still decided to let them get married.

With the guidance of his master and elders, Zhang Sidao's cultivation in Qingxuan Sect was relatively smooth. A few months ago, he successfully broke through the ninth level of Qi training and began to prepare for building a foundation.

His talent was not bad. Even the weapon refining technique, under the guidance of Chen Hongyuan, a famous teacher, broke through the second-level upper grade, and was able to help Chen Hongyuan.

Chen Hongyuan also used his relationship in the General Affairs Hall to arrange for Zhang Sidao to refine low-level magic tools to earn good deeds.

Although learning the art of refining consumes a lot of resources, Zhang Sidao has the inheritance of his grandfather Zhang Mengjian, who has accumulated for a lifetime, plus the compensation given by the family after Zhang Mengjian died in the battle at Chaoyin Mountain, so he now has 2,000 merits in his hands.

He can also get a reward of 100 merits for refining magic tools for the general affairs hall of the sect every year. By the time he is 60 years old, the couple should be able to collect 5,000 merits.

And Zhang Zhixuan, Zhang Hanyan, and Chen Hongyuan, three elders in the foundation-building stage, can also help him solve the remaining half. Although he lost his Yuanyang when he married and had children, with the help of the foundation-building pill, Zhang Sidao's probability of building a foundation is still more than 30%.

The probability of building a foundation of 30% is already worth the resources invested by elders like Zhang Zhixuan to help him at a critical moment.
