Chapter 146 Testing and Graduation
Having experienced the effect of directly using the Red Dust Qi, Jie Ming, after confirming that neither he nor the Five Elements Transformation Rainbow Mirror could continue to use the Red Dust Qi to improve in a short period of time, began to think about other ways of using it.
Due to its special properties and easy acquisition, the energy of the mortal world has become almost a universal material second only to spiritual energy through the hard work of monks.
Not only in cultivation, basically all the arts of cultivating immortals can use the energy of the mortal world.
Anyway, this thing has special properties. If you use a small amount, you can use it to improve yourself, and if you use a large amount, you can use it to attack the enemy.
No matter how determined a cultivator is, if he suddenly encounters a large amount of worldly energy without any preparation, it is no different from falling into a cesspool.
However, when it comes to special usage methods, the first thing that comes to Benjamin's mind is of course "alchemy".
But before that, you still need to be familiar with the characteristics of the various "forms" of the red dust energy.
He first looked for the special secret method that could "redirect" the energy of the mortal world in his own Golden Finger Avenue Book Pavilion.
Another important reason why the energy of the mortal world can become a universal material is that its properties can be changed under the influence of various secret methods.
The Dao Book Pavilion is as vast as the ocean, recording countless magical techniques and concepts of immortal cultivation civilizations.
Soon, he found a side-door practice called "Hundred Transformations of the Heart Sutra", which recorded a special method that could transform the turbid energy of the inner demon into the pure energy of the soul.
Although the earthly aura is not a demon in the heart, its essence is equally complex and contains strong worldly thoughts, which is similar to the effect of the other.
So some people tried to apply it to the energy of the mortal world, and unexpectedly, a new material was born.
Benjamin spent several days deducing and practicing this secret method.
After finally becoming familiar with it, he tried to use a special technique to adjust the energy properties of a wisp of mortal energy, turning it from the complexity of "the world of mortals" into a spiritual object that can purely nourish the soul.
When that strand of diverted earthly energy flowed into his spiritual sea like a clear spring, Benjamin immediately felt the nourishment of his soul.
The feeling is gentle and comfortable, like a soft massage deep in the soul, refreshing the spirit.
"The effect is good." Benjamin said to himself, but there was a hint of regret between his brows.
This transformed earthly energy has indeed lost its original impact and negative influence, and can purely nourish the soul.
However, its effect is only that of a normal spiritual object.
With his current wealth, he can buy as much material of this level as he wants.
It seems that although the harm of the earthly energy has been lost after its characteristics have been changed, its original baptismal effect that is so extreme that it penetrates deeply into the soul has also been lost.
It has become "safe", but has also lost its most core "characteristics".
"It's not very valuable to use it directly. We need to find a carrier." Benjamin quickly came up with a new idea.
He turned his gaze to the crystal clear flower dew in the jade bottle beside him.
The greatest characteristics of the conceptual material Baihualu are its carrying and harmonizing properties.
Even if it is added alone to the medicine, the success rate of the medicine can be greatly improved.
What's even more peculiar is that even without adding any other materials, just by continuously refining the Hundred Flowers Dew, one can extract a spiritual liquid that can stabilize the state, which is very effective for cultivators with fluctuating souls or unstable minds.
But the biggest feature of Baihualu is that it can carry some intangible and intangible conceptual materials.
When Benjamin used the purple energy from the East to refine the soul-enhancing potion, its main base material was the Hundred Flowers Dew that he had purchased at a high price in the academy.
It can perfectly integrate the "conceptual" power of the Purple Qi from the East into the potion and stabilize it.
Benjamin first tried to use the Hundred Flowers Dew and the transferred Red Dust Qi to refine it. Thanks to his previous experience in refining potions with the Purple Qi from the East, the refining process this time went quite smoothly.
Half a day later, a bottle of magic potion emitting a faint fragrance was successfully condensed in his hands.
He couldn't wait to give it a try.
As the potion enters your mouth, the gentle energy rushes straight into your soul, bringing a slight refreshing effect.
"Not bad." Benjamin assessed it.
The effect of this potion is equivalent to having an additional potion that can enhance mental strength.
Its advantages are very prominent - the cost is extremely low, because the red dust energy is endless, and the flower dew can also be continuously produced by the golden garden, so it can be supplied continuously.
However, for Jemin, the value of this medicine is not high.
He was wealthy, and during his normal training, he had already maxed out the quota of various magic potions used to assist in his training.
Whether it is Qigong or meditation, there is a limit to the digestion speed.
Even if there are new medicines, they will not be used much based on the existing ones.
If other wizards had researched this thing, they might have been extremely happy, as it would have been an additional source of income. But for Benjamin, it seemed like a drop in the bucket.
"It seems that safety and efficiency cannot be achieved at the same time." Benjamin sighed and wrote down the formula of the medicine as a "backup plan".
He pondered for a moment, his eyes falling on his lab notes again.
Since it has been confirmed that the mortal energy has lost its most important essence after its nature has changed, there is no need to continue researching it.
Next, it is better to focus on the serious worldly energy.
Benjamin took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with fanaticism.
After referring to many elixirs made with mortal energy as the main ingredient in the Dao Book Pavilion, Benjamin began to look for suitable materials in the wizarding world with his knowledge of alchemy.
Taking into account the particularity of the Red Dust Qi, this time he mainly referred to the alchemy theory of the world of immortal cultivation, and configured the materials according to the principle of harmonizing yin and yang and the five elements to assist the medicinal properties of the Red Dust Qi.
After spending more than half a month, Benjamin finally succeeded in refining a bottle of potion that exuded a strange fragrance and had a faint smell of fireworks.
The color of the potion is not pure, but presents a hazy colorful halo, as if it condenses all things in the world.
However, looking at this bottle of hard-earned medicine, Benjamin felt a little regretful that he could not use it immediately to try out its effects.
One reason was that the fatigue caused by his previous use of the mortal energy to directly permeate his soul had not completely subsided.
The recovery of the soul takes time, and experiments of this level cannot tolerate any carelessness.
Just in case, it’s better to be cautious.
Another reason, and a more important reason, is that the time has come - these apprentices who participated in the plane test have finally reached graduation time.
Although people like Benjamin who had passed the academy trials before did not need to rush to the battlefield immediately in the short term to conquer other planes for the Nolen Workshop.
However, as a courtesy, and also to receive final evaluation and awards, all apprentices, regardless of their grades, are required to return to the college for a graduation ceremony.
"It seems that I can only try it after I come back from school." Benjamin put away the potion, a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes.
He knew that if this potion worked, its value would far exceed any previous attempts.
It may even replace refined gold and become his new main source of income.
He walked out of the underground laboratory. The sunlight shone through the plants in the garden, warm and bright.
At this time, a message came from the magic weapon on his body that Amy and Victor were already waiting at the entrance of the camp.
"Jeremy! Hurry up! Not just anyone can be late for the graduation ceremony!" Amy's energetic voice came from the magic weapon.
Jemin chuckled, put away all the research materials, turned and walked towards the space teleportation device leading to the camp.
…
…
At Noren Academy No. 13, after several months, Benjamin once again set foot in this training ground for wizard apprentices.
However, this time the feeling was completely different from any other time before.
The news about Benjamin's performance in the Elosia plane trial had spread throughout the entire Norn No. 13 Academy.
First on the contribution list, leading the pollution of faith, indirectly contributing to the capture of gods, and even obtaining the priority choice of an entire plane... These amazing achievements were circulated among apprentices like myths.
When Benjamin, Amy and Victor stepped into the main square of the academy, the apprentices who had been gathered in twos and threes whispering to each other all turned their eyes to them.
The apprentices who recognized Benjamin's face couldn't help but be surprised, and then their eyes flashed with disbelief, followed by deep awe and complexity.
The whispers stopped abruptly, replaced by an invisible, suppressed silence. Only a few bold ones would cast curious and inquiring glances.
Not only the apprentices who did not participate in the trial, but even the apprentices who participated in the trial fell silent.
This is their awe for the strong.
Only when Benjamin left would these people burst into more heated discussions again.
"Look, you're a celebrity in the academy now." Amy chuckled softly, with a hint of mischief in her eyes.
Benjamin just smiled faintly and didn't care about these looks.
He knew that in the wizarding world, strength was the only pass.
The graduation ceremony was held in the Void Hall in the center of the academy. Unlike the cumbersome formalities of the mortal world, the graduation ceremony of the Norn Workshop seemed quite simple and efficient.
In the center of the hall, dozens of instructors stood in their respective formations with serious expressions, waiting for the disciples who were about to complete their apprenticeship.
No long speeches, no sentimental farewells.
But when the graduation ceremony began, everyone couldn't help but become nervous.
The graduates were called one by one by their mentors and walked to the front of the stage one by one.
In front of the array where Mentor Clark was, Jermyn stood next to Amy and Victor, waiting.
When Jermyn's name was called, he walked slowly forward and stood in front of Teacher Clark.
