Chapter 31: Magical Power: Blue Lotus Eyes
Qingyun Sect, Sutra Library
"Junior Brother Lu, are you sure you want to choose this magical power?"
Ji Chang looked at the magical power that Lu Chen had chosen after a long time, and asked uncertainly.
The advice revealed in his words seemed to indicate that he was not very keen on choosing this magical power.
It’s not that Ji Chang didn’t wish Lu Chen well, but he felt that Lu Chen’s choice this time was... a little too risky.
"No, Senior Brother Ji, I think this magical power is quite suitable for me, so I'll take it."
"Okay, it's up to you to decide."
"Um."
Lu Chen nodded, took the magical book called "Blue Lotus Pupil", and came to the guardian of the Sutra Repository.
After confirming that there was no problem with Lu Chen's identity, the Sutra Keeper waved his hand and a jade slip wrapped in a golden ball of light flew in front of Lu Chen.
What is recorded in this jade slip is the practice method of 'Blue Lotus Flower Pupil'.
What he originally held in his hand was just a rubbing to help the disciples in the sect understand the content of the spell.
After the Scripture Guardian finished what he was supposed to do, he said expressionlessly: "The jade slip cannot be taken out, and cannot be copied. You have three days to memorize the contents of the jade slip. If you fail, it will be taken back."
After saying this, the keeper of the Sutra Repository closed his eyes again and returned to silence.
At this point, Ji Chang's mission as a guide was basically completed.
After exchanging a few simple greetings with Lu Chen, he left the Sutra Library.
Lu Chen came alone to a quiet room in the Sutra Library and began to perceive the information recorded in the jade slip.
Green Lotus Pupil, this is the highest grade magical power that Lu Chen has come across so far.
The function of this magical skill is just as its name suggests, it is specifically used to cultivate pupil techniques.
After carefully reading the cultivation method of 'Blue Lotus Huatong', Lu Chen couldn't help but gasp.
"The method of cultivating the Azure Lotus Eyes... is too difficult."
It is different from the Zixia health-preserving exercise which only needs to be practiced when Zixia is just rising and can be improved little by little over time.
The method of cultivating the Qinglian Huatong is very special, requiring the cultivator to drip special lotus jade liquid on the eyes.
Then he practiced the method to allow the lotus jade liquid to slowly strengthen the cultivator's pupils, slowly forming special lotus pupils.
This method of practice is not only cumbersome, but also requires a lot of resources.
After all, the lotus jade liquid needed to practice the Green Lotus Pupil cannot be refined from an ordinary lotus.
Instead, we need those spiritual lotuses.
But if the practice was just tedious, Ji Chang would not have advised Lu Chen to change his magical power.
The real difficulty of Qinglian Huatong lies in its "opening of the pupil" which is full of uncertainty.
Unlike most techniques that require one to practice to perfection, one will be able to obtain corresponding effects.
The special thing about the Qinglian Huatong is that when different people practice this magical power, the final results may vary greatly.
And this difference is reflected in the Qinglian Huapu and the quality of the lotus pupil after it is opened.
There are three grades of lotus pupils: low-grade grey lotus, mid-grade white lotus, and high-grade blue lotus.
If you can open a top-grade Green Lotus Pupil, then what you are practicing is the real Green Lotus Pupil Technique.
And if the pupils that open are white lotus pupils or gray lotus pupils, then even if you have practiced the pupil technique to perfection.
Its final effect will also be greatly reduced, not even 20% or 30% as good as the Qinglian Pupil.
This kind of supernatural power is difficult to practice, consumes a lot of resources, and cannot guarantee the effectiveness of practice.
Naturally, it was abandoned by most monks.
After all, how many cultivators would like to spend a lot of resources and time to cultivate a defective magical power? Therefore, during the thousands of years that the Blue Lotus Eye existed in the Qingyun Sect, hundreds of people cultivated this magical power.
There are still very few people who can develop the 'Blue Lotus Pupils'.
To the extent that up to now, the Qinglian Huatong has reached the point where no one cares about it.
In fact, normally, Lu Chen would not have chosen this magical power that relies heavily on luck.
But when he picked up the rubbing of the Qinglian Huatong, the appearance of a piece of information made him finally make up his mind.
[Special skill: Blue Lotus Eyes detected. Prerequisites met to enter the entry level...]
[Blue Lotus Huatong·Prerequisites for Entry]
[1. Gray Lotus Eyes: 100 experience points, 10-year spiritual lotus essence*1]
[2. White Lotus Pupil: 1000 experience points, 100-year-old Spiritual Lotus Essence*1]
[3. Blue Lotus Pupil: 10,000 experience points, 1,000-year-old Spiritual Lotus Essence]
The entry conditions for the skill were a special reminder that had appeared before when Lu Chen was practicing alchemy.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have insisted on refining a furnace of Qi Gathering Pills.
That's not just because this is the entrance examination for menial disciples at Danyang Peak.
This is also because this is a prerequisite for Lu Chen to learn alchemy.
Only after meeting this prerequisite can he transform alchemy into a skill on the panel and increase the skill level through experience points.
The reason why he did not jump out of the so-called prerequisite entry conditions when he learned other skills before.
Lu Chen speculated that this might be because the skills he had practiced before had a relatively low entry threshold.
The only relatively special Zixia health-preserving exercise is one whose practice condition is only to practice it when Zixia is just born.
Although these conditions are harsh, they are definitely not difficult to achieve.
As for skills like Water Dragon Chant and Flowing Cloud Steps, there is no need to say more.
There are no special conditions for practice at all. It all depends on your own understanding.
Compared to alchemy, you only need to make a batch of pills to complete the prerequisite for entry.
Getting started with the Qinglian Huatong is undoubtedly much more difficult.
"Ten thousand experience points and a thousand-year-old spiritual lotus. These requirements are really demanding..."
Ten thousand experience points are still easy to deal with, but this thousand-year-old spiritual lotus is a bit difficult to deal with.
You should know that the thousand-year-old spiritual lotus itself has the effect of "calming the spirit and concentrating the mind" and "cleansing the essence and marrow".
It is a medicinal ingredient commonly used by many alchemists when making elixirs, and it is in great demand.
Although there are many thousand-year-old spiritual lotuses in the Qingyun Sect.
But ninety-nine percent of these spiritual lotuses were given to the veteran alchemists in Danyang Peak.
Not to mention whether Lu Chen is qualified to exchange for the Millennium Spirit Lotus from the sect.
Even if he had, it would be difficult for him to come up with the required contribution points at the moment.
After all, if he remembered correctly, it would take five thousand contribution points to exchange for a thousand-year-old spiritual lotus.
According to his current progress in obtaining sect contribution points, he would need to go without food or drink for about fifty years to achieve this.
Spending fifty years to cultivate a magical power was undoubtedly not in line with Lu Chen's requirements.
After all, with this much time, he might have successfully built his foundation.
But as the saying goes, rules are dead, people are alive.
After some thought, Lu Chen came up with a way to obtain the Millennium Spirit Lotus without spending a lot of contribution points.
The core of this method lies in the new skill he had unlocked before... basic alchemy.
"Danyang Peak is different from other peaks. The elders in the peak pay more attention to the disciples' alchemy level than their cultivation level."
"If I can show my high talent in alchemy, I will surely be valued by the elders in the peak."
"In this case, if I ask them for a thousand-year-old spiritual lotus on the pretext of refining an elixir, it shouldn't be a difficult task."
"And what could better demonstrate my talent for alchemy than improving my alchemy skills to a high level in a short period of time?"
"Geniuses should always have some privileges over ordinary people..."
Thinking of this, Lu Chen's thoughts gradually became clear.
