There is a saying in the world of monks that has been passed down from ancient times to the present: When a monk asks a question about the lack of armor, a hundred years will pass in the blink of an eye.
Perhaps this sentence is a bit exaggerated for monks in the innate stage, but for great monks at the alchemy stage, this is a true portrayal.
Of course, in fact, the original meaning of this sentence is that in a monk's cultivation career, time is always precious, and it always feels that it is not enough, and it often seems like a fleeting moment.
Du Feiyun felt like this now. He wished every day could be used as ten days.
After two months of seclusion in a secret room, although there were no big surprises, I also gained a lot. I successfully practiced three high-grade spells and thoroughly understood two of the eight traveling skills. This is the biggest gain.
After leaving seclusion, he only had less than 300 Huiyuan Pills left, and even the very precious Qingyun Pills had less than 20 pills left. Such a small amount of pills was really too much for a Xiantian-stage monk like him.
It was too shabby and definitely not enough for his normal consumption for a month.
Fortunately, what is gratifying is that the countless herbs, flowers and trees in the spiritual field and medicine garden have finally matured after Du Wanqing spent several months cultivating them.
This just solved Du Feiyun's urgent need. He did not hesitate to harvest these herbs and flowers and trees together with Du Wanqing, and turned them all into medicinal materials for making elixirs.
Now, Du Feiyun's strength has reached the innate stage, his understanding of the Nine Dragon Cauldron has become clearer, and he has gradually discovered more mysteries of the Nine Dragon Cauldron. Of course, there are hundreds of countless prescriptions recorded in the Lieshan Pharmacopoeia.
The door was opened to him.
Now, he has at his disposal hundreds of elixir recipes that can be refined. All of these elixir recipes are extremely rare and rare, and the refined elixirs are also extremely rare treasures.
It's just that he doesn't have so many heavenly materials, earthly treasures and medicinal herbs to refine those rare and high-level elixirs. After all, what he lacks most now is the Huiyuan Pill, Qingyun Pill, Dingshen Pill, etc. that he needs to survive.
.
The above three kinds of elixirs are the three most commonly used in the monk world. They can also be said to be the food for monks above the innate stage.
It is not enough to just rely on oneself to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish vitality and vitality in the body. Therefore, monks in the Xiantian stage need to take a large amount of Huiyuan Pill and Qingyun Pill every day to replenish the vitality that is constantly dissipated and consumed.
The Huiyuan Pill is the lowest level, has more impurities, restores less Yuan Power, and has the simplest refining method. In comparison, the Qingyun Pill is much higher-level, is clearer and more transparent, and restores more Yuan Power.
In the world of monks, when most monks make transactions, if they don't use spiritual stones as currency, they must use Huiyuan Pill or Qingyun Pill. Of course, there are also barters, but there are very few.
As for the Dingshen Pill, it is much more advanced than the Qingyun Pill and the Huiyuan Pill, and its effect is also more powerful. It can cleanse the mind and temper the spiritual consciousness. Innate stage monks also need to take it regularly.
The Calming Pill is used to refine the mind and enhance the strength of spiritual consciousness.
The value of one Recovery Pill is equivalent to two low-grade spiritual stones, one Qingyun Pill is equivalent to twenty low-grade spiritual stones, and one Calming Pill is equivalent to two hundred low-grade spiritual stones.
Innate stage monks take these Huiyuan Pills or Qingyun Pills every day, and take the Calming Spirit Pill every three or five times. Calculated in this way, even if there is no fighting or fighting, just meditating and practicing, at least hundreds of low-grade spiritual stones will be consumed every day.
Moreover, the higher the strength, the greater the consumption. For example, Du Feiyun is only at the first level of the innate stage, and he normally consumes about sixty low-grade spiritual stones every day. If he reaches the seventh level of the innate stage, he will consume at least two hundred to three hundred and three spiritual stones every day.
Hundreds of low-grade spiritual stones.
It is for this reason that monks flock to powerful sects in the hope that the sects can provide excellent resources. At the same time, in addition to practicing in seclusion, monks spend most of their time busy refining elixirs and refining weapons, in addition to exploring, treasure hunting, and mining.
Collecting medicine and so on.
Without the resources provided by the sect, without the many materials and treasures obtained through hard work, it would be extremely difficult for ordinary monks to improve their strength.
As his strength gradually improved, Du Feiyun felt more and more pressed for time. He believed that in the future, in addition to practicing in seclusion, his cultivation career would be spent working hard in order to obtain more resources, elixirs, and spiritual stones.
, magic weapons, etc.
A batch of herbs, flowers and trees in the medicinal fields and nurseries matured, and seeds were produced after harvesting. They were soon planted in the medicinal fields and nurseries and continued to be taken care of by Du Wanqing.
After Du Feiyun collected enough medicinal materials, he became busy again and began to refine Huiyuan Pill, Qingyun Pill, and Dingshen Pill in large quantities in the secret room.
He needs to ensure self-sufficiency first and store enough elixirs for daily needs before he has time to do other things later.
The process of refining the Huiyuan Pill is relatively simple. You only need to prepare three rare herbs, supplemented by Lingchi spring water, and it can be refined quickly. Lingchi spring water can be found in many places in Zangxue Bingfeng. Although it is rare, it is not special.
Du Feiyun went to Zangxue Bingfeng to find the treasures, and Ning Xuewei brought him back with several gourds.
It takes about half an hour to refine a furnace of Huiyuan Dan, and the success rate of ordinary alchemists is really low. Eight out of ten furnaces turn into waste, so the average innate stage alchemist, even if he works hard,
At most, you can complete four to five furnaces and harvest about a hundred Yuanhui Dan.
But Du Feiyun is more evil. He is not using ordinary medicine cauldrons or medicine furnaces, but the magical treasure Nine Dragon Cauldron. The success rate is ridiculously high. Nine out of ten furnaces are successful in refining the Yuanhui Dan.
Moreover, he can refine one furnace of Huiyuan Pills and can produce three furnaces in one hour. More importantly, his method of refining the pills has been completely inherited from the Lieshan Pharmacopoeia, which is countless times better than that of ordinary alchemists.
Therefore, most of the Yuan-Restoring Pills he refined were of third- to fourth-grade quality, with fewer impurities, clear psychic abilities, and recovered 20% more Yuan Power.
He went all out to refine the Huiyuan Pills, and he had to refine at least six to seven hundred Huiyuan Pills a day. The speed was four to five times that of an ordinary alchemist. It would be fine if he was a monk who had been immersed in the alchemy method for decades.
, but he has only started refining alchemy for a little over a year, and he has such a terrifying speed and success rate, which is indeed shocking.
There is no doubt that if the alchemy elders in Liuyun Sect learn about this, they will take him back to Liuyuntian Palace no matter what and concentrate on practicing alchemy in the alchemy hall.
In just five days, Du Feiyun refined more than 3,000 Yuan-Returning Pills, more than 200 Qingyun Pills, and dozens of Calming Pills. These pills were enough for him to take for two months.
Of course, he kept refining the elixir, and within five days, he was already exhausted of his energy. Even the energy stored in the Nine Dragon Cauldron was exhausted.
At the same time, almost all the medicinal materials have been consumed. If you want to continue to refine the elixir, you need to wait for several months before the next batch of medicinal herbs, flowers and trees mature.
With this calculation in his mind, Du Feiyun discovered that although dozens of medicinal fields and nurseries had been opened in the valley, the supply was still in short supply. The medicinal materials Du Wanqing spent four months cultivating and refining into elixirs were only enough for him.
Been taking it for two months.
If this continues, no matter how hard Du Wanqing tries his best to take care of the nursery and medicinal fields, he will still run out of food.
What's more, my sister has now reached the late stage of body refining, and both she and her mother, Du Shi, need elixirs to recuperate their bodies. In addition, when he brings the little golden-crowned eagle back from Zangxue Bingfeng, the consumption of elixirs will be even greater.
Big.
Discovering the current situation that the elixirs were far insufficient, Du Feiyun felt that the situation was somewhat urgent and he must find a way to solve the problem of insufficient medicinal materials as soon as possible. At least, he could not affect his cultivation because of insufficient medicinal materials to refine the elixirs.
With this thought in mind, he set his sights on the Nine Dragon Cauldron and decided to plant medicinal seedling seeds in the Lingtian Medicine Garden in that space.
After all, the spiritual energy in that space is extremely abundant, and the growth rate of herbs, flowers and trees is definitely several times faster than the outside world.
If the spiritual field medicine garden in that space is planted with medicinal seedlings and seeds, he will never be short of medicinal materials for alchemy.
With this thought in his mind, he couldn't wait to enter the Nine Dragon Cauldron, preparing to plant herb seedlings and seeds in that space. Unfortunately, to his dismay, when he entered the Nine Dragon Cauldron, he found that there was a path leading to that space.
The black portal turned blurry and dark, making it impossible to pass through.
How could this be?
This discovery undoubtedly made Du Feiyun anxious and confused. However, he thought about it and couldn't figure out the specific reason. He also thought that refining the medicine in the past few days had exhausted the energy stored in the Nine Dragon Cauldron. In the end, he could only conclude that it must be
It was because the energy stored in the Nine Dragon Cauldron was exhausted, which made that space inaccessible.
A few days later, when the Nine Dragon Cauldron automatically absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish its storage and recovered 80%, Du Feiyun finally entered that space. After entering it, he found that the spiritual energy in this space was not as rich as before.
mellow.
After waiting for ten days, the energy storage of the Nine Dragon Cauldron finally returned to fullness, and the concentration of spiritual energy in that space returned to its original state. Only then did Du Feiyun realize that the spiritual energy in this space all relied on the energy of the Nine Dragon Cauldron.
Power is stored.
From now on, he must keep the Yuan Power stored in the Nine Dragon Cauldron full, so that he can enter this space, and the spiritual energy is very rich. Otherwise, once the Yuan Power stored in the Nine Dragon Cauldron is exhausted, this space will not be able to enter, and
Spiritual energy will also be exhausted.
After coming to this conclusion in his mind, Du Feiyun kept it in mind and had to think of ways to solve the problem of lack of medicinal materials. He had to find a way to speed up the growth of medicinal herbs so as to meet his needs for refining elixirs.
Because Du Wanqing had worked in the Spiritual Medicine Garden for several months, he knew a lot about growing herbs. After Du Feiyun consulted Du Wanqing, he realized that if he wanted to increase the growth rate of herbs, flowers and trees, he must have
Assistance with formations such as spirit gathering array, light condensing array, rain spreading array, and warming array.
Du Feiyun had just entered the innate stage and had not yet been exposed to formation cultivation. Naturally, he could not arrange formations to cultivate medicinal herbs. After thinking about it, he decided to go to the Cangxue Ice Peak.
After all, Xue Bing is a strong man in the late Xiantian stage, and is very proficient in alchemy, weapon refining and formation formation. He should be able to gain some advice from Xue Bing, and then the dilemma of lack of medicinal materials and lack of elixirs can be solved.
