So he was refining the elixir according to his body's instincts, while at the same time he was immersed in the art of alchemy.
At this moment, President Meng's eyes were drifting away, as if he was looking at the alchemy furnace, but also as if he was not looking at it anymore. His mind was also divided into two.
Suddenly, a burnt smell came from the furnace. It turned out that he was distracted and did not pay attention to the situation in the furnace, so he ruined the whole batch of pills.
President Meng woke up in shock.
He stared blankly at the burnt slag in the furnace, his face flushing visibly.
"The path of alchemy... the beginning of the path of alchemy, so that's it, so that's it! Heaven-level elixir, immortal patterns... the path of alchemy! I understand!"
He stood up suddenly, and began to dance uncontrollably as if he had suddenly figured out a problem that had troubled him for years!
"Hahaha, I see! I finally understand..."
President Meng had tears in his eyes, and they were definitely tears of excitement.
He tried for a hundred years but failed, and took many detours during this period. He once thought that it was because his basic skills were not solid enough that he could not break through the bottleneck.
He had also consulted heavenly-level alchemists, such as the president of Jiang Baizhou's Alchemy Association, who was definitely one of the most respected alchemists in the entire continent.
The president once told him that the most important thing in refining a heavenly-grade elixir was to understand the Dao of alchemy and that Daoism concealed the mind. He had been pondering this sentence, but there was always something missing.
Other heavenly-level alchemists have also shared some personal experiences to a greater or lesser extent, but everyone's breakthrough experience is different, and what works for others may not work for him.
President Meng also tried to think about alchemy while refining the elixir, but he would be distracted as soon as he thought about it, and he had never entered the mysterious state that others talked about.
Until today.
Although the alchemy failed, it was because he was too excited in that state and temporarily ignored the pill in the furnace.
"Thank you, Master Ning Dan."
President Meng figured something out, turned to look at Ning Zhishui, and bowed to her while suppressing his excitement.
No matter what level of cultivation Ning Zhishui had at this moment, he had taught him after all, so he should thank him as a junior.
Ning Zhishui accepted his gift, then smiled and congratulated him, "I think it won't be long before we hear good news from President Meng."
Neither of them was depressed by the failure of the furnace pill. On the contrary, they were very happy.
Because President Meng has already touched that threshold, he only needs to try a few more times and he will definitely succeed. It is just a matter of time.
"Thank you for your kind words." President Meng's face flushed, and he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve. "I lost my composure."
"It's never too much of a mistake like this." Ning Zhishui said with a smile.
President Meng felt a little embarrassed, but at the same time he was curious, "Does Master Ning Dan have a heavenly master or elder?"
"Why do you ask?"
"The other party must be extremely powerful, and their teachings to you must be different from ours." President Meng said with some longing, "Otherwise, if it were an ordinary Xuan-level or even Earth-level alchemist, it would be impossible for them to remind me at the right time."
Although it only has an opening sentence, the timing of its appearance is extremely critical to President Meng.
A step earlier would distract him, a step later would make him miss that state.
Moreover, there are many chapters in the Dao of Alchemy. Ning Zhishui was not talking about the other chapters, but the final chapter. It just so happened that this sentence gave him inspiration at that time.
This is not accidental or coincidental, it shows that Ning Zhishui himself has some knowledge of alchemy and heavenly-level alchemists!
President Meng could only attribute all this to Ning Zhishui's "master", otherwise how to explain how she knew it?
Ning Zhishui didn't continue the topic. "Have the members of the Immortal Grass Association been decided? If so, we should gather all the alchemists together for centralized training sooner rather than later. That way, the seniors can give them some pointers. Maybe they'll even have a chance to break through."
President Meng's heart moved.
It’s certainly okay for the seniors to give some pointers, but what if Ning Zhishui could give some pointers?
She can even give guidance to the Earth-level alchemists, so if the Xuanhuang-level alchemists are stuck at a bottleneck, wouldn't they also be able to make progress with her guidance?
"This matter will be arranged as soon as possible. When everyone is gathered, you can come and take a look?" President Meng probed.
Ning Zhishui nodded. "I am also one of the participants, so I will go, of course. However, I don't have much time, so I might not be able to train all day like other alchemists."
At her level, it doesn’t matter whether she practices or not.
As long as your cultivation level continues to improve, whether you reach the earth level or the heaven level, it will be a natural thing.
So she had to make it special, otherwise it would be a waste of time.
President Meng breathed a sigh of relief. "It's okay. I'm glad you can come. I will explain your matter to the president in advance."
Ning Zhishui nodded. Seeing President Meng's eager look, he knew that he definitely wanted to strike while the iron was hot and continue refining pills, so as to reach the Heavenly Level as soon as possible.
So he didn't stay any longer and left after saying goodbye.
After leaving the house, Ning Zhishui sent a message to Manager Cao of Zuifeng Tower, saying that he would go to the tower during the day tomorrow to discuss something important.
Manager Cao immediately said that he would stop receiving guests during the day and be at your service at any time.
While walking on the street, Ning Zhishui could still hear passers-by talking about Zhang Zhaohai's sudden death.
"Good thing he died! That old pervert should have died long ago!"
"Exactly. He's done so many things to abduct female cultivators! I heard that all of them died."
"I've also heard that he has that habit. The female cultivators who followed him were all miserable. He's truly heartless."
"By the way, what is the relationship between this Zhang Zhaohai and the Zhang family of the Five Families?"
"You don't know, Zhang Zhaohai is a direct descendant of the Zhang family! But it seems that he committed some crime while he was in the Zhang family, so he was exiled to Luoyu City by the Zhang family."
"No wonder."
Ning Zhishui was not surprised to hear these words, because she already knew about this matter.
The real Zhang family is not comparable to the Zhang Mansion in Luo Yucheng. Apart from anything else, if Ning Zhishui had stolen from the Zhang family's warehouse, even if it was just a few shelves, her whole family would never have to struggle for ten lifetimes.
But the next words made Ning Zhishui pause.
"By the way, I heard that some of the Zhang family's direct descendants came to our Luoyu City today. It was quite a big scene, and they are all staying at the Zhang family and haven't left yet."
"Oh, so Zhang Zhaohai is quite important to the Zhang family? He even alarmed the entire family."
Ning Zhishui frowned and couldn't help thinking.
The direct descendants of the Zhang family came to Luoyu City. Could it be that they thought Zhang Zhaohai's death was unusual, so they came to investigate the cause of his death?
That shouldn't be the case. Zhang Zhaohai is not that important in the Zhang family, otherwise he wouldn't have been away from the family for so many years.
Besides, the person is dead, and he died in public without any doubt. How could this alarm the family?
etc……
Ning Zhishui suddenly thought of something.
Spiritual vein!
Calculating the time, the day when the spiritual vein opens is coming soon!
