Tianchen Mountain, cave.
The densely packed spiritual restrictions were flickering with dim light. Shen Lian's figure in the alchemy room was slightly shaky, and his face was pale from excessive blood loss.
The quantity is too large.
As his mouth opened and closed, he could smell the bloody smell from the blood-replenishing elixir. In front of him was a large cauldron filled with bright red blood sugar water, which he poured into his mouth with a "slurp".
The huge energy of the blood-replenishing pill dissolves in the body, replenishing the body's consumed essence and blood.
The acquired original spiritual object that had already moved to the Dantian position was shrouded in a blood-colored mist, but it was still continuously devouring Shen Lian's life essence and blood.
The essence and blood stored in the body rushed towards the original spiritual object like a floodgate opened.
"I knew you were a blood thief."
In an instant, all the blood-replenishing pills that Shen Lian had prepared before melted in his body.
"Buzz!"
When the entire original spiritual object was emitting a more intense blood light among the five colors, Shen Lian's mind suddenly penetrated into a hazy colorful space.
In the space, colorful lights intertwined and spiritual bans flashed one after another.
These spiritual restrictions outlined colorful runes and also constructed a ruined formation, emitting a faint innate aura.
Shen Lian could identify the broken runes, formations, and the innate energy at a glance. After all, he was very proficient in these.
"Innate runes and innate formations, what a pity that they are incomplete."
After checking, Shen Lian felt a little regretful. These incomplete runes and formations were not destroyed, but only partially evolved, making the runes and formations in an incomplete state.
Sensing the aura of runes and formations lingering in the space, he quickly figured out the reason.
The space that gave birth to this acquired spiritual object of origin had insufficient innate spiritual energy left after its innate origin was taken away or left, so that after this acquired spiritual object of origin was nurtured to this state, it stopped evolving further.
The runes and formations that were born underwent some changes in rhythm due to insufficient nourishment, and they went from being full of vitality to having a withered aura.
When he first entered that space, the gray-white airflow that he encountered that could corrode all life was born from the rhythm transformed by this original spiritual object.
"The withering of vitality is somewhat similar to the rules of life and death."
"Innate Five Elements Formation, Runes."
"It's a pity that it's a little incomplete."
His divine sense sensed the spiritual restrictions in the space bit by bit. If he had not made a huge investment in the blood sacrifice this time, he might have been brutally annihilated just like when he encountered the gray-white airflow before.
"No, if the innate spiritual energy is sufficient, there will be no transformation of withering aura, and no deriving of the scene of withering and flourishing caused. This is a transformation by fate."
"Life withers, and prosperity rules."
As his divine consciousness wandered in the space of the original spiritual object, Shen Lian's thoughts began to wander.
His original goal was to make this original spiritual object into his own natal talisman, and create a talisman that could seal the heaven and the earth.
But I didn't expect the plan to change.
Inside this original spiritual object, there are more than half of the innate formations and runes that have evolved by themselves, including both formations and runes.
"It can be used as both a talisman and a battle array."
"Double happiness!"
…
"Hey, why do I feel a little dizzy?"
"My soul hurts a bit too."
…
Half a month later.
Inside the alchemy room, Shen Lian was holding a large cauldron filled with sugar water and drinking it fiercely, his face still a little pale.
The blood-sucking ability of this original spiritual object is too strong. He is originally a physical cultivator, and the amount of his essence and blood is dozens of times that of a cultivator of the same level, but he was almost sucked to death.
Take a sip of blood sugar water and take a bite of elixir.
The blood-replenishing pills he had refined before were finished, and his physical condition was not good afterwards so he could not start refining pills. Shen Lian could only show off the blood-replenishing elixir directly, and finally made up for his loss.
"No wonder the female Taoist friend wanted to kill the red dragon. If this happens every month, it would be strange if she could have a good temper."
After drinking the sugar water, Shen Lian collapsed on the wooden couch, but a look of joy involuntarily appeared on the corners of his mouth.
I made a lot of money this time.
The original spiritual object obtained from the Land of Ten Thousand Sands has a much better fortune than expected.
The half-finished formations and runes can be used as both formations and runes.
However, the initial expectation needs to be changed. Next, you only need to understand the semi-finished formations and runes inside, and you can use them as the foundation to build your own natal rune formation.
"The rules of withering and flourishing are somewhat consistent with my rules of yin and yang."
"Let's get my body back in shape first. I'm still a little weak right now, and it's not suitable for me to comprehend the rules when I feel dizzy and dizzy."
…
More than 20 years have passed in a flash.
On this day, Shen Lianmao was refining elixirs in his cave.
After the alchemy furnace surrounded by colorful spiritual fire was opened, seven pills of green, red and yellow colors flew out, surrounded by the three regular forces of wood, fire and earth.
This is a type of sixth-grade medium-quality Five Elements Rule Pill.
There are many types of such elixirs, and according to different rules, various combinations of rule elixirs can be refined.
Two of the seven pills were top-grade, and Shen Lian put them into his bag like flowing water. The remaining five were rolled into a pill box beside him.
Over the years, Shen Lian's life can be said to be extremely fulfilling. Apart from practicing, he would comprehend the origin of the talisman array, refine the fragments of the Hedao spiritual treasure, and refine elixirs.
The elixirs that are refined also tend to be some special categories of elixirs, such as those of rules, souls, miasma-dispelling, and magic power purification, etc.
There is naturally a purpose for doing this. The Juntian Pavilion's recruitment of various craftsmen in the city is a foregone conclusion, and all the cultivators in Juntian City cannot escape.
As a well-known sixth-rank mid-grade alchemist in the city, Shen Lian naturally had to highlight his alchemy skills.
By the way, he also refined a batch of non-medicinal spiritual medicine powder and modified his own natal spiritual treasure in order to respond to the call from Juntian Pavilion.
After cleaning the alchemy furnace, Shen Lian prepared to rest for a few days before refining a furnace of elixirs for his daily practice.
But outside the cave, a stream of light fell down.
The flowing light dissipated and turned into a cultivator in the early stage of refining emptiness.
"Master Ji Dan, I am here on the orders of the elders to invite you to board the Xinghai Flying Boat."
After the monk entered the cave, he handed a jade slip to Shen Lian.
"Leaving now?"
After sensing the information in the jade slip, Shen Lian was a little surprised.
The jade slip contained an order from the External Affairs Hall of Juntian Pavilion, ordering him to follow the monk to the Xinghai Flying Boat.
I remember that Ou Cunjie said last time that the first large-scale flushing of foul air would occur in sixty years, which is still twenty years away.
"Okay, wait till I put out the fire and put away the furnace."
After a moment, Shen Lian simply packed up, summoned his two puppets at the entrance of the cave, and followed the cultivators to fly towards the outside of Juntian City.
"I don't know your name."
On the flying boat, Shen Lian looked at the cultivator who was driving the flying boat and asked.
"Master Ji Dan, you can call me Fellow Daoist Niu. I am a deacon who has just joined the External Affairs Hall."
As soon as Fellow Daoist Niu opened his mouth, Shen Lian understood that he was being exiled.
In every generation of disciples of Juntian Pavilion, if the Void-Refining Monks born can no longer display their talents, they will be exiled to various places to become deacons or guardians of a place.
However, being able to become a steward of the External Affairs Hall shows that this Taoist fellow has some connections, otherwise he would have been exiled to a remote corner long ago.
This Daoist friend Niu was also very talkative. Through him, Shen Lian also learned that he was not the only craftsman who received the notice from the External Affairs Hall.
Refining weapons, refining pills, making talismans, spiritual plants, puppets, and even corpse refiners, magic cultivators, and practitioners of unconventional methods.
As a sixth-rank mid-quality alchemist, Shen Lian stays in Tianchen Mountain all day long. In fact, in Juntian City, there are only fifty or sixty alchemists of his level who are well-known.
Fifty or sixty sixth-rank intermediate-grade alchemists may seem like a lot, but there are even more cultivators in Juntian City.
As for the sixth-rank top-grade alchemists, there are only three of them, and they are exclusive to Juntian Pavilion.
Sitting on Fellow Daoist Niu's flying boat, the two of them left Juntian City directly and entered the vast void.
The fog in the void became thicker, and the turbid air made Shen Lian close his pores involuntarily.
Once too much turbid air enters the body, it will be like the poison from elixirs, and it will take time to eliminate it.
Fortunately, there are protective layers outside each major area, isolating the impact of foul air, otherwise the entire fairy world will usher in a period of inability to practice.
"Master Ji Dan, the Xinghai Flying Boat of my Juntian Pavilion is ahead."
After flying for a whole day, an extremely huge land was suspended in the void in the hazy and turbid air.
This land is surrounded by layers of colorful spiritual light, and above it are undulating mountains, lakes, towers, and waterside pavilions, making it more like a city.
When the flying boat rushed towards the colorful spiritual light, a spoon-shaped rune suddenly appeared. In an instant, Shen Lian sensed a sharp aura dissipating from the colorful spiritual light.
"Master Ji, the alchemist's cave is at the departure point of the flying boat. Other alchemists have already arrived."
…
The Star Sea Flying Boat of Juntian Pavilion is very large, and eight directions are divided on it according to Zhen, Li, Dui, Kan, Xun, Kun, Qian and Gen.
The Li position where the alchemist is located is a red volcano-like area.
The independent volcanoes sparkled with crystals, and their entire bodies looked like red fire gems. Shen Lian could tell at a glance that these volcanoes were fifth-level ores, and some had even reached the sixth level.
Each volcano is an independent cave, and between the volcanoes there are long rivers of fire flowing.
At the front of the volcanic area is a platform with several figures standing on it. Among them is an old man wearing a red fire robe with a spoon embroidered on the left and an alchemy furnace embroidered on the right.
"Meet Master Red Dragon Alchemist."
After landing from the flying boat, Shen Lian first bowed to the figure in the red fire robe, and then bowed to the other alchemists present.
Master Chilong is one of the three sixth-rank top-grade alchemists in Juntian Pavilion, and also the oldest one.
As for the remaining few people, Shen Lian found them somewhat familiar. They were all alchemists who lived in Juntian City and he had met them several times.
"Fellow Daoist Ji Wuxian."
The Red Fire Alchemist had red hair on his head, and even his eyes were red. He first looked at Shen Lian, and then said, "I am a cultivator from the Ji family in the Yunyue Mountains in the Cangyuan Land."
"yes."
Shen Lian nodded.
"This junior comes from Cangyuan."
"Um."
Master Chihuo did not ask any more questions, and continued, "You are already a sixth-rank middle-grade alchemist. As long as you complete this mission well, it will not be difficult for you to join Juntian Pavilion as a guest elder, and your treatment will be the same as that of a formal elder."
"The younger generation will definitely do their best."
Shen Lian quickly expressed his loyalty.
"Buzz!"
As he spoke, Chihuo waved his hand and a wave of fire rolled up, revealing an illusory volcano map.
"Please choose an alchemy cave. The one with jumping flames means that it has been selected by the alchemist. The remaining ones without jumping flames are unselected."
"These caves all have top-grade earth fire spirit dragons, as well as spare alchemy furnaces. If you are not used to the prepared alchemy furnaces, you can use your own."
Shen Lian's mind fell on the volcano map, and finally chose a location slightly close to the edge.
"Just focus on refining the elixir. Don't worry too much. As long as you do your best, Juntian Pavilion will naturally not blame you."
Master Chilong Dan then said a few words to comfort him.
"The younger generation will definitely do their best."
Afterwards, Shen Lian did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he communicated with several alchemists present before finding the alchemy cave he had chosen.
After entering the cave, he began to examine it carefully.
There was no scorching heat in the cave where red fire was billowing. Instead, spiritual barriers lit up on the crystal red fire barrier.
The cave is very large, with a training room and a spirit beast room, it can be said to have everything you need.
He arrived at the alchemy room first and saw a red fire dragon lying in a flame spiritual confinement, surrounded by clusters of red sparks.
Outside the Fire Dragon Spirit Confinement, there is also a hollow-carved sixth-level warm jade cushion. Wisps of extremely pure spiritual energy flow out from the hollow position, forming small spiritual energy vortices.
Next to the fire dragon, there was a furnace with three legs and two ears, and carved with the eight trigrams.
At the entrance of the alchemy room, there is a green light curtain stone, which is used to contact the spiritual treasure and arrange tasks.
The Earth Fire Spirit Dragon can reduce the consumption of the alchemist's own mana. The spiritual energy overflowing from under the warm jade cushion is comparable to a sixth-grade top-grade spiritual vein, which can restore the alchemist's mana to the maximum extent.
Wow, what a thorough arrangement.
Shen Lian happily sat cross-legged on the warm jade cushion, but his mind was scratching like a monkey, wondering if he could steal the elixir without anyone noticing.
The Red Dragon Alchemist is not worth mentioning, but there must be a cultivator who has reached the perfection of the Void Refinement Realm on the Star Sea Flying Boat. If it is coupled with the overall spiritual ban, one must be careful if one wants to steal the spiritual medicine.
"I've raised you for nine thousand years, old friend. I'm only using you for a moment, so don't let me down."
With a wave of his hand, Shen Lian summoned the Five Elements Ship, but this time the Five Elements Ship had turned into Ji Wuxian's portable alchemy furnace.
As early as he learned from Ou Cunjie that he would be recruited to make elixirs, he began to make arrangements.
"It is impossible for the divine power of a cultivator who has reached the Great Perfection of Refining Void to cover the flying boat all the time. Moreover, once the alchemist's furnace is touched by the divine power of the outside world, it will easily explode. So even if someone is spying, it is most likely just spying inside the alchemy room. This is my chance."
…
In the void, streaks of light rushed into the Star Sea Flying Boat like lightning. When the light faded away, the figures of the inner sect and true disciples of Juntian Pavilion were revealed.
However, these disciples seemed to have formed different factions, and many of them had a true disciple followed by varying numbers of inner disciples.
Of course, there are also some disciples who keep to themselves.
As soon as these disciples came up, they started looking for their caves. Their caves were in the middle of the Star Sea Flying Boat.
"Senior Brother Xuan Yao is here!"
A few days later, the colorful spiritual light above the Star Sea Flying Boat was suddenly attracted inexplicitly, and a sword light as bright as a rainbow was seen in the turbid area outside the Star Sea Flying Boat.
With a "puff" sound, the wandering turbid mist was suddenly cut apart.
Amid the turbid fog that split into two halves, a streak of extremely bright colorful sword light gushed out. Amidst the violent rolling, countless sword qi formed a barrier that dispersed the turbid air to all sides.
The five-colored sword energy converged and continuously shone on the cultivators in various places on the flying boat.
…
"Five Elements, Sword Dao."
In Cave No. 12, Shen Lian walked out of the cave like the other alchemists and looked up at the sky, wanting to see the cultivator in Juntian Realm who was most likely to advance to the Dao.
Then, a slender figure gradually emerged in the sword light, with facial features as if carved by a knife, star-like eyebrows, sword-like eyes, and bright pupils.
"In the late stage of refining emptiness, the aura is no worse than that of a broken Hedao spirit weapon. A Hedao seed is still somewhat extraordinary."
Shen Lian stood outside the cave silently and did not peeke too much. He did not care whether the person was strong or not. He just wanted to get the elixir.
The more he gathered this time, the more dry food Huang Youdao and the other two could prepare for the journey, and he could also advance to the late stage of Refining Void as soon as possible.
"I don't know if it's fake or not."
Shen Lian pondered silently in his heart and soon came up with the answer.
"Senior Brother Xuan Yao is the most powerful disciple of our sect. He is here to command the Xinghai Flying Boat and escort us."
"After Senior Brother Pei left last time, no one knows where he went. He has not returned to the sect yet. If Senior Brother Pei also comes, then our Juntian Pavilion will have the first scene of two peaks competing for glory in tens of thousands of years."
"I heard that Senior Brother Pei had something important to do, so he didn't return to the sect."
"With Senior Brother Xuan Yao in charge, we can freely cast our spells in the Void Star Sea this time."
…
Xuan Yao appeared and quickly disappeared in the center of the Star Sea Flying Boat. Shen Lian yawned out of boredom and returned to the cave.
If it is really this Xuan Yao who is in charge of the Star Sea Flying Boat, it would not be bad. At least the style of this first true disciple of Juntian Pavilion is very magnanimous.
In recent days, more and more cultivators have boarded the Star Sea Flying Boat, and alchemists have moved in on the nearby volcano where the alchemy cave is located.
"It's really a big deal. We have recruited at least a hundred sixth-level lower-grade alchemists, at least a dozen sixth-level middle-grade alchemists, and thousands of alchemists of all ranks below the sixth level."
When Shen Lian had nothing to do, he would squat at the entrance of the cave and look outside with his big eyes.
The appeal of Juntian Pavilion is indeed strong. These are just the alchemists. There are also other different craftsmen gathered in the other eight directions. The total number is definitely a huge number.
"I really miss the time when the whole world supported me alone."
Looking at others mobilizing people to work, Shen Lian sighed, shook his head and went back to the cave, not wanting to watch any more.
"If we catch all the craftsmen on this ship, there will be many fellow Taoists in Juntian Realm who will not be able to eat the elixir."
When I have nothing to do, I like to daydream. Before I knew it, this idea popped up in Shen Lian's mind.
…
"Boom!"
Two months later, the peaceful Star Sea Flying Boat suddenly made a roar, which shocked all the monks in the boat.
The huge boat dispelled the thick turbid air and slid into the vast nothingness.
The Star Sea Flying Boat already possesses a hint of spatial properties, and can trace the veins in the void space. It travels through it as if it were suspended above space, and is faster than lightning as if it had a slide rail.
As the huge boat was traveling, there was no shaking at all, and a layer of silver light was floating around the boat.
"The news that was released was that the foul air would impact the heaven and earth in sixty years, but they have already started to move ahead of schedule to grab resources in just forty years."
"...No wonder most monks have bad luck. They can't even eat hot shit."
…
The speed of the Star Sea Flying Boat is very fast, comparable to the flying speed of a cultivator who has reached the Great Perfection of the Refined Void Realm and has comprehended at least one level of the spatial rules.
As the flying boat went deeper into the Sea of Nothingness, it began to experience some bumps, mainly due to encountering some starry sky phenomena.
In the vast sea of stars, the turbid air currents did indeed begin to wash each other like ocean currents. When the turbid air surged, some scattered broken objects appeared in the mist.
One year later.
“How spectacular!”
"Such a terrifying scene can only be created by celestial phenomena."
The cultivators on the flying boat came out one after another and looked outside, and Shen Lian was no exception.
Then I saw in the distant void, there seemed to be a huge crack that stretched for thousands of miles, and the foul air coming out of the crack was like a flame erupting, crossing the upper and lower voids.
All around this turbid gas volcano, within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, there are densely packed crystal gem-like spiritual objects, sparkling with colorful lights.
From time to time, new streams of light splashed out from the turbid air and fell into the nearby area.
"Those colorful things are probably the spiritual creatures that rushed out."
"Look, there is a black spiritual object over there. What is that thing and why is it still crawling?"
…
In the living area in the middle of the flying boat, below the many caves surrounded by it, there is a hazy secret room filled with shelves.
Silver runes flickered around the secret room, swimming around like living fish.
At the door of the secret room, there was a shriveled old man sitting cross-legged, looking like a puppet, and his aura was as if he was dead.
"The quasi-seventh-level spiritual object Skyfire Yaoguang Stone is being put into storage."
Xuan Yao's figure slowly appeared outside the door of the secret room. His aura seemed a little weak, and his sword energy was not yet restrained.
The shriveled old man who was sitting cross-legged slowly opened his eyes without looking at the red and yellow spiritual stone.
"Your mission is to stay in the Star Sea Flying Boat and guard against other Holy Land Flying Boats that may appear, not to look for spiritual objects."
"Those holy places in Haotian Realm are not good places. As long as there are spiritual objects to be fished out, they will definitely come across the border."
Xuan Yao continued to operate the formation, gathering his slightly chaotic aura.
"Grand Elder, I won't go again. The main reason is that this quasi-seventh-level spiritual object is too special. If it can be nurtured for a few thousand years, it can transform into a true seventh-level spiritual object."
The old man stopped talking, pressed his hand on the door of the secret room, countless runes lit up, and he personally placed the spiritual object into the secret room.
"Go and do your work. The turbid air rising up and covering the void is easy for people to take advantage of and launch a sneak attack. Sometimes such an opportunity may not come across for tens of thousands of years. At least fill up my treasure house on this trip."
…
"My fellow junior brothers and sisters, there are countless opportunities in the Clear and Turbid Tides, but there are also many dangers. You all need to be careful. I am waiting for everyone's safe return in the flying boat."
Xuan Yao's voice spread in all directions, and in an instant the monks of Juntian Pavilion on the flying boat took off into the air, either driving the flying boat or flying swords and spirit beasts, and rushed towards the spirit object belt formed by the volcanic eruption.
"I sincerely wish my fellow Taoists to encounter less danger and collect more resources."
At the entrance of the alchemy cave, Shen Lian gave a simple blessing in his heart and turned back to his alchemy room.
Just three days later, the green communication tablet standing at the door of the alchemy room lit up with light, and the voice of the Red Dragon Alchemist was heard.
"Half a plant of Cornus officinalis flower, 40% of its medicinal power has been lost, and it can be used to refine the sixth-level Cornus officinalis longevity pill."
"Take it from furnace number 39."
After a moment, a slightly cold female cultivator's voice sounded.
Soon, some cultivators controlled their magic swords and delivered jade boxes to Cave No. 39.
Cornus longevity pill is used to increase lifespan. It can increase lifespan by 500 to 1,000 years for those below the late stage of Refining Void.
…
"Hun Yang Grass, the medicinal power has been reduced by 30%, and it can be used to refine the Fire Dual Attribute Rule Pill."
Inside the cave, Shen Lian's divine sense fell on the communication spirit tablet. He was away from Cave No. 12.
Soon, a monk came to deliver the herbs.
After opening the jade box, he saw the Hun Yang grass that looked like it had been torn apart by five horses, with a faint turbid air lingering around it.
"Even the sixth-level spiritual herbs are sprouting out like this. How many cultivators are buried in the Sea of Nothingness?"
Shen Lian had a guess in his mind but his actions were not slow. He began to organize the spiritual herbs in his hand. He needed to get rid of the foul air first.
“Hoohoo!”
A day later, he put the Hun Yang Grass into the alchemy furnace and began to refine it bit by bit.
He has been very busy these days. The soul in his sea of consciousness is tense, relying on the innate purple spirit to sense the fluctuations around him bit by bit.
After sensing for a long time, he did not find any cultivator in charge covering the area with his spiritual thoughts. Instead, the Red Dragon Alchemist used his spiritual thoughts to scan the surroundings from time to time to check on the alchemy work of the alchemists in the alchemy room.
But when the Red Dragon Alchemist cast his divine thoughts, he only traced the outside of the Alchemist's body, never touching the Alchemist, let alone the alchemy furnace.
What is professionalism? This is professionalism.
Shen Lian used his divine sense to cover the entire alchemy furnace.
The Earth Spirit Fire Dragon prepared in the alchemy room had already been baptized by his own alchemy fire, and was now heating up the alchemy furnace.
Inside the alchemy furnace, the spiritual liquid formed after the spiritual herbs were liquefied was roiling, and tiny wisps of liquid medicinal power seeped towards the inner wall of the alchemy furnace as they drifted away.
This Hun Yang grass, which has lost 30% of its medicinal power, can be refined into two pills normally without considering the quality of the pills.
As a conscientious alchemist, Shen Lian would naturally not reduce the number of successful pills.
When the spiritual liquid seeped into the inner wall of the furnace, a little bit of powder fell off the inner wall and merged with the forming elixir liquid.
It would be too dangerous to steal the elixir while waiting for it to come out on someone else's territory, so he chose to steal the medicinal power.
Steal a little from this furnace, steal a little from the next furnace, and you can put the scraps together to make a furnace of elixir.
Another reason is that the elixir that Juntian Pavilion needs may not be what Shen Lian himself wants, but the main ingredient of the elixir he refines is what he wants.
In this way, stealing the medicinal power directly from the alchemy furnace can avoid this embarrassing situation.
Besides, he didn't just steal without giving anything back. He also gave attributeless elixir powder, which was specially made by him.
It used to be all sweet potato powder, one spirit stone weighing several thousand jin. Now, sixth-grade spiritual medicine powder costs at least one or two thousand top-grade spirit stones per jin.
If you reciprocate, it will not be difficult to steal again.
"Congeal!"
The instant the flame rose, the elixir liquid formed in the alchemy furnace split into two, turning into red and yellow colors, and continued to expand and shrink like breathing.
During this process, the medicinal power is fully dispersed in the elixir liquid and begins to condense into pills.
…
With a clang, the lid of the furnace was opened, and two elixirs flew out and landed in a jade box beside it.
Shen Lian then separated a strand of his divine consciousness and knocked on the communication spirit tablet next to him. The cultivator waiting outside the cave came in quietly, grabbed the jade box and left quickly, arriving at the location of the Red Dragon Alchemist.
"Master, this is the elixir made by the alchemist from the Twelve Caves."
There were several boxes of elixirs in front of Chilong's desk, all of which were of the fourth and fifth grades. After a quick inspection, he took out a seal and pressed it on the jade box. Suddenly, the jade box became brightly glowing.
"The alchemist from the Cangyuan Land who is close to the Twelve Caves is not bad. He has another medium-quality pill. The quality of the pill is in line with the success rate of his previous pill refining."
While checking the pill, Chilong retrieved Ji Wuxian's information from his mind.
"This cultivator has had a pretty good success rate refining special elixirs such as the Rule Elixir over the years. He has the potential to be cultivated."
“Crack!”
After closing the jade box, Master Chilong Alchemy stamped his own seal on it.
…
"Leaving the Twelve Caves, Fellow Daoist Ji, refines the dual-attribute earth and fire rule pill, and your contribution points will be increased by 1,200."
Shen Lian, who was cleaning the alchemy furnace, heard the voice coming from the communication spirit tablet, but he didn't take it seriously. It was indeed easier to gain points by refining the rule elixir than by refining the elixir for daily practice.
After refining the first furnace, Shen Lian had a rough idea in his mind.
"Thousand Soul Blood Nourishing Spirits, less than 20% of the medicinal power remains. Only those who can refine the Thousand Soul Blood Nourishing Pill can come. This pill does not require a success rate."
"I'll do it."
"The Earth Dragon Spirit Ginseng, only the lower half of the roots remain. Anyone who can refine the Mysterious Spirit Heavy God Pill can come and make one pill to qualify."
"I'll do it."
…
"I!"
"I!"
Inside the Twelve Caves, Shen Lian would make a sound on the communication stele every once in a while.
There were all kinds of elixirs, and he wanted them all.
…
Time passes.
In the Void Star Sea, the disciples of Juntian Pavilion were like locusts, swarming wherever they went and not even bothering to pick up low-level spiritual objects.
Juntian Pavilion is not so hungry that it will eat anything. The destinations of the Star Sea Flying Boats are all those areas of opportunity that once left their names.
In these places, the probability of fifth- and sixth-order spiritual creatures appearing is very high, and various spiritual creatures that have comprehended the rules also appear frequently.
These people were too cruel. After they rolled over, all the high-level spiritual objects were swept away.
And after picking up the items, he went to another place without stopping at all, flying step by step towards a higher place above the void.
Those who come later can only pick up scraps, or stay in one place and wait for the foul air to erupt, hoping to find a big bargain.
…
More than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Shen Lian, who was sitting cross-legged and regulating his breathing, opened his eyes. He thought that there would be people fighting for it, but the actual situation was that he could not finish refining it at all.
In order to improve the endurance of the monks present in alchemy, the Red Dragon directly sent them elixirs that could restore their magic power.
Refining the elixir takes time, but the various spiritual objects for refining the elixir that were picked up were piled up together, and there were not enough alchemists.
Later on, the Red Dragon Alchemist began to take part in the performance himself, and arranged for his disciples to directly record the spiritual medicines they had obtained into the communication spirit tablet, allowing the alchemists present to choose for themselves.
Just practice hard.
This grand event will last at least one hundred to eighty years.
This has just begun, and Juntian Pavilion's Star Sea Flying Boat has not yet started to use its power.
His divine consciousness continued to search on the communication spirit tablet. Shen Lian had already gotten tired of refining elixirs based on the five elements.
"Sumeru Kongling grass, used to refine the Jingkong Wudao Pill, I've finally got what I've been waiting for, I'll take this."
Xumi Kongling Grass is also the main ingredient for refining Xumi Jie Zi Dan.
"Sumeru Spiritual Grass, hiss..."
When he opened the jade box, Shen Lian was stabbed in the back by the spiritual herb in the jade box. The sharp force of space pierced him like a spike.
He sucked his fingers in his mouth twice, his eyes burning and he muttered to himself.
"To refine the Jingkong Enlightenment Pill, the contribution points for this pill must be at least three thousand."
"call!"
After a long sigh, Shen Lian sat cross-legged and rested for half a day.
Although I didn't notice anyone was spying, I still had to do my part.
"Turn on the furnace."
The fire of the elixir ignited on the elixir furnace, and he threw the Sumeru Sky Spirit Grass into the elixir furnace. The spiritual grass with space attributes was indeed unruly, and it continuously impacted the elixir furnace, making clanging sounds.
…
"Five Qis Returning to the Origin Water, the spiritual power has been dissipated by 70%, and it still needs to be of medium quality to become a pill."
"Fourth-level Xuanming Pill, why are you joining in the fun with such a low-level spiritual pill?"
"Xuantian Heavy Water and Youhuo Grass, only 10% of their medicinal power is left, how can we make the elixir?"
"This one is even more pitiful. Only half of the medicinal power is left. It's easier to not ask for the probability of success, but isn't this a waste of time?"
"The Tianyun Fire Ganoderma has only 15% of its potency left. I won't refine it."
As time went by, the spiritual thoughts of the alchemists in various caves converged on the communication stele, and each of them selected the elixir that he could refine.
But there is no way, those with strong medicinal properties and easy to refine have already been picked up.
Now only 30% of the most powerful medicines are left, and they are the kind of elixirs that are particularly difficult to refine.
Everyone comes here to refine elixirs in order to earn points. Although Elder Red Dragon said that no points will be deducted for failed refining, it still takes time to fail in refining.
In the Twelve Caves, the alchemy furnace opened and two Jingkong Enlightenment Pills flew out of the furnace. One of them exploded into slag on the spot after flying out, and the remaining one barely reached medium quality.
"I didn't expect this pill to be so difficult to refine. I was too confident. It seems I should choose something easier. Otherwise, if I fail, I will lose the chance to obtain contribution points."
Shen Lian's face was filled with tiredness. He put the pill away and sent it away, then took a recovery pill and began to regulate his breathing.
…
"The Jingkong Enlightenment Pill has really been refined."
A few days later, Master Chilong, who had finished refining a batch of elixirs, began to check the elixirs sent from various caves.
When he saw the Jingkong Enlightenment Pill, he showed a hint of surprise.
Originally, he was going to refine this type of elixir himself, but because of another elixir, he didn't have time to refine it.
"Not bad, the quality of the finished pill is medium, it's worth it to explode another one."
When Shen Lian delivered the elixir, he also sent over the discarded dregs from the exploded elixir.
In addition to helping cultivators comprehend the rules of Taoism, the Enlightenment Pill can also allow cultivators to enter an ethereal state and integrate the rules into their own.
"Send the Jianwan Pill I refined, along with this Jingkong Wudao Pill, to Xuan Yao."
After carefully examining the elixir, Master Chilong threw the jade box to the cultivator standing nearby.
He knew that Xuan Yao had been trying to integrate the Five Elements and swordsmanship over the years, but he had not made much progress.
"Another alchemist from the Twelve Caves. It seems that the alchemy inherited by this cultivator is extraordinary."
With a thought, Master Chilong Alchemy stretched out his hand and pointed, and a jade box flew into the hands of another monk standing there.
"Go and deliver the elixir in this jade box to the Twelve Caves."
"Just do your best to refine it, don't worry about the success rate."
…
For Juntian Pavilion, there is no such thing as too many craftsmen, but after all, the number of cultivators with the talent for alchemy is far less than that of magic cultivators and physical cultivators.
It would be of great benefit to have such a potential alchemist in the sect.
Otherwise, Juntian Pavilion would not have set an example for outsiders.
Ji Yuanru, a cultivator who was born as a casual cultivator and ranked among the elders of the inner mountains, holds some of the real power of the sect.
This is for outsiders to see.
…
"Ethereal and Void Flower."
Shen Lian was initially surprised and puzzled by the herbs that were delivered to his door, but he then recovered.
This was also within his expectations. It had been more than thirty years since he started refining elixirs on the flying boat.
Most of the elixirs he refined were special types of elixirs, and his main feature was an unconventional approach.
Now another elixir with space attributes has been delivered. It seems that this Master Ji Dan has a crush on Elder Chilong.
"Just let go of refining what the elder said, Fellow Daoist Ji, and don't worry about the success rate."
Taking another look at the elixir in the jade box, Shen Lian was a little speechless. If he wanted to pursue a higher success rate for the pill, he would have to get a top-quality elixir.
Just look at this magical medicine, its medicinal power has long been shattered beyond recognition, only two tenths of it remains.
"Please report to Elder Chilong. I will do my best to refine it."
After the visitor left, Shen Lian closed the alchemy room again.
The elixir in front of him should be the test given to him by the Red Dragon. This time, Shen Lian is not going to steal the medicinal power.
Steal when you should steal, and don't steal when you shouldn't steal.
In fact, this kind of broken elixir is what he likes the most. The more broken it is, the more waste pills it can produce, and the more waste pills it produces, the more medicinal power he can steal.
After stealing the medicinal power, the waste pill was directly destroyed and the traces were eliminated. It was simply a dream love potion.
…
Half a year later.
Shen Lian was concentrating on guarding the alchemy furnace when suddenly the stable Star Sea Flying Boat began to shake violently.
The violent turbulence caused the flames of the Earth Spirit Fire Dragon to become turbulent.
Boom! Boom! In an instant, roars rang out from the many caves in Liwei, and groups of flaming dragons rushed out from the cave doors.
"This old man's pill!"
"Who is so heartless? I am about to start the furnace, and this furnace is full of mediocre...all top-quality elixirs, and they are all ruined!"
Ding ding ding! Compared to the shouting and cursing, there was something even more miserable. The alchemy furnace rushed out of the cave and fell into the magma from the air. Several black pills hissed and emitted black smoke.
Shen Lian, who was in the Twelve Caves Mansion, relaxed his mind for a moment when the underground fire was about to overturn the alchemy furnace, and the prototype of a pill that was about to take shape in the alchemy furnace suddenly emitted black smoke with a "puff" sound.
Hey, it's useless.
It is difficult to defy God's will.
…
“What happened!”
Like other fellow alchemists, the alchemists with blackened faces rushed out of the alchemy cave and looked around.
"Another Star Sea Flying Boat!"
"Oh no, it's the Demon Sect's flying boat. There are only three flying boats in the Juntian Realm Star Sea, but there is no Demon Sect's flying boat."
"It's the holy land of the magic path in the Cangtian Realm!"
