Seeing that Ling Xiao was not impatient, Xie Shizi was quite surprised.
"Huh, what's the matter? Not interested in this little bitch?" Xie Shizi said jokingly.
Ling Xiao had an expression of indifference, and a look of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes. As a doctor, how could Lu Huanxi not know that the elixir she refined was too strong? How could she make such an extremely low-level mistake?
If it weren't for Mu'er's destiny fire and the divine divine veins of heaven in his body, not only himself but also Mu'er would be implicated.
So when Ling Xiao took the first pill, he was already convinced that Lu Huanxi was doing some kind of experiment on his body.
The next two pills were also for the purpose of recovering as quickly as possible. Coupled with his breakthrough in cultivation, Ling Xiao used his body to resist the power of the pills.
Both he and Mu'er knew this, but no one mentioned it. After all, the two of them were still living under someone else's roof. He and Mu'er wanted to see what Lu Huanxi's purpose was.
"Since Mu'er and I are valuable to her, let's see what she wants to do. Besides..."
Ling Xiao stood up, looked at his red palms, and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
When taking the elixir, Ling Xiao felt that in addition to the fire of destiny and the divine veins of the heavenly crystal, there was another force hidden in his body. Under the stimulation of the elixir, this force had gradually awakened, like a prisoner.
The beast trapped in the deepest part of his soul slowly opened his sleeping eyes.
However, until now, Ling Xiao still doesn't know what this power is. However, since such powerful medicine can stimulate him, Ling Xiao doesn't mind letting Lu Huanxi work harder.
Moreover, the medicine that was supposed to burst the body actually helped him to break through his cultivation level unintentionally, and also allowed his injuries to recover as quickly as possible.
For various reasons, Ling Xiao and Mu'er chose not to make any announcement, but they were already very wary of Lu Huanxi.
Seeing Ling Xiao in a daze, Xie Shizi naturally knew what he was thinking.
"You've been with that little fox for a long time, and you've turned into a little fox, which is great." Xie Shizi said jokingly.
"People eat people in order to survive and not live in shabby conditions."
Ling Xiao sneered, and was about to lie down when he was stopped by Xie Shizi. In Ling Xiao's surprised look, Xie Shizi waved his sleeves, and the surrounding environment suddenly changed. The two of them came directly to the silver ring space.
.
The first layer of the silver ring was still so dim, with books and scrolls floating around it.
Xie Shizi clicked his fingertips lightly, and Xuan Que flew out for no reason, thrust straight forward, and slammed down at the end of the first floor.
The fog behind dissipated, and Ling Xiao looked at the scene in front of him with a blank expression. This was the first time he saw the way the silver ring space opened the second layer, and he was very shocked.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go." Xie Shizi said leisurely.
"This, Xuan Que is the key to the silver ring?"
Ling Xiao's face was full of disbelief.
The Evil Dead Son did not speak, but just walked to the end of the first layer of space, passed through the light curtain, and disappeared in place.
Ling Xiao quickly followed up, and the darkness in front of him disappeared, replaced by the flickering candlelight. The weak firelight made the visibility on the second floor not very high.
But Ling Xiao also learned from Mu'er a few days ago that there were many pills stored on the second layer of his silver ring.
Mu'er didn't ask about the first-level martial arts and the origin of the silver ring, just like Ling Xiao didn't ask about the weird silver box in Mu'er's hand. Both of them tacitly had their own secrets.
Of course, the existence of the Evil Dead Son was also known to Mu'er. After the two escaped and before Ling Xiao's consciousness fainted, he already knew that with Mu'er's intelligence and mind, he might have already noticed the existence of the Evil Dead Son.
The Evil Dead Son waved his hand, the candle flames bloomed, and the space on the second floor was also illuminated.
The second floor is a hundred square meters in size, with medicine shelves crowded at the ends, and translucent jade bottles densely placed above.
In front of Ling Xiao, there is a wide table, with countless elixirs lying quietly above it. Further forward, there are three pill furnaces of different sizes. Just from the lines on the surface, you can see that he
of extraordinary.
Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment. Not to mention the space of this silver ring, the resources stored in it were already extremely exaggerated.
Although he was mentally prepared, Ling Xiao was still briefly dazed.
"Boy, are you just stunned? Let's go."
Xie Shizi's face remained the same and his tone was indifferent, as if these precious herbs were not worth mentioning here.
"Uh, that..."
"I know what you are thinking, but your qualifications are not suitable for being an alchemist at all. Your spiritual veins do not have fire-attribute spiritual roots, and you cannot control spiritual fire at all." Xie Shizi said leisurely.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao, who was still holding on to a sense of luck, was immediately poured cold water on him.
Spiritual roots, the foundation of spiritual veins, and the attributes of spiritual roots also determine your affinity for which attributes, and are also an important deciding factor in choosing exercises and branches of practice in the future. Although Ling Xiao's spiritual roots are crystal clear, he knows
, I am a practitioner without attributes.
Practitioners with attribute spiritual roots usually focus on their corresponding attributes to practice, thereby achieving the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.
The spiritual power and body of those with non-attributed spiritual roots are purer and more powerful than those with attributed spiritual roots. Both types of spiritual roots have their own advantages and disadvantages, and there is nothing worth arguing about.
You can refine elixirs and become an alchemist. The most basic thing is to have fire-attribute spiritual roots. You have a strong affinity for flames and can carefully control the temperature and subtle direction of flames.
Ling Xiao curled his lips helplessly, Ling Xiao still felt a little unhappy.
"Hey, kid, just follow me. Although you can't refine the elixir, you can take another path."
Looking at the back of the evil dead son, Ling Xiao followed closely. At the end of the second level of space, the evil dead son waved with one hand and unlocked the seal of the silver ring.
The two of them jumped into the light curtain together. As soon as they stepped onto the third floor, a strong smell of rust and animal skins suddenly poured into their nostrils.
It didn't smell good, so Ling Xiao subconsciously waved his hand at the tip of his nose. Xie Shizi's eyes narrowed slightly, and the candles around him instantly burned brightly.
The dark space became brighter, and the third floor was still a hundred-square-meter space, but there was no simplicity on the first floor, no medicinal fragrance on the second floor, and only iron that was constantly glowing under the candlelight.
and countless animal skins.
Ling Xiao looked a little dazed, and then turned his attention to the bamboo racks around him. There were many scrolls on them. Different from the martial arts on the first level, they seemed to have powerful energy sealed in them.
Ling Xiao's mental power is much stronger than that of ordinary people. Just by looking at it with his spiritual sense, he can tell that these scrolls are extraordinary.
"Scroll... talisman?"
Ling Xiao frowned slightly.
When this type of scroll was in the mountains in the east, Mu'er had already used the teleportation scroll with space attributes to allow the two of them to escape. If it hadn't been for that scroll, it would have been impossible for him and Mu'er to escape from the hands of Zhao Wuyu and many disciples.
sky.
"Yes, this scroll has a collective name, which is the talisman. The production of the talisman is similar to that of the elixir, but it is also fundamentally different."
"Most elixirs are used to assist in practice, and talismans can also do the same. At the same time, martial arts can be sealed in them. They are items of equal value to elixirs."
"The level of the talisman is also the same as that of the elixir, which makes it easy to distinguish and plan."
Xie Shizi kept explaining to Ling Xiao, and Ling Xiao nodded indifferently. He also heard a little bit about the talisman.
The essence of the talisman is to seal, store the power attributes, spiritual power, and martial arts spirit waves in it, and release them when used, so as to assist combat and practice.
It's just that although elixirs and talismans are both consumables, the elixirs can help practice far more than the talisman. However, the powerful destructive power brought by the sealing of martial arts in the talisman is something that elixirs do not have.
Both items are essential items on the path of spiritual practice.
"Old man, what do you mean, you want me to refine the talisman?"
Ling Xiao looked sideways.
Looking deeply at Ling Xiao, Xie Shizi said leisurely, "If you want to become an alchemist, the conditions are so stringent that only one in a thousand can do it, and there is only one prerequisite for practicing the talisman."
"What?"
"Mental strength."
"Mental strength?"
Ling Xiao was puzzled.
"Yes, if you want to refine the talisman, you need extremely strong mental power. Even though he only has this requirement, the threshold is also extremely high. Even many alchemists want to learn the talisman technique, but they lack mental power.
Too far away."
"You don't have fire-attribute spiritual roots, so you can't refine elixirs and become an alchemist, but you can rely on your strong mental power to refine talismans." Xie Shizi said.
Ling Xiao nodded blankly. After saying this, he had a clear understanding.
But Ling Xiao turned his gaze to Xie Shizi beside him, with a look of surprise on his face.
Sensing Ling Xiao's eyes, Xie Shizi naturally knew his intention. He stroked his beard with one hand and moved the fingertips of his right hand slightly.
A piece of animal skin floated into the air, and a palm-sized silver-white ore flew out from around it.
Black Ming's spiritual breath swept out from Xie Shizi's fingertips and wrapped around the ore. Immediately, the ore turned into a liquid under the squeeze of the spiritual power.
With a flick of his fingertips, strands of silver-white liquid turned into the size of teardrops, and under the control of Xie Shizi, they were engraved on the animal skin bit by bit.
The combination of the two actually triggered powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, and the silver light burst out. Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment.
Before Ling Xiao could react, a palm-sized and transparent core appeared in the distance. Under the control of the evil dead son, the core sank into the animal skin in an incomparable fit.
The aura of spiritual power was even stronger, but under the control of the evil dead son, it did not leak out at all. Then, another jet of black iron powder rose into the air and sprinkled directly on the animal skin.
The spiritual breath instantly converged and sank into it. The animal skin returned to calmness, rolled up to one side, and landed firmly in the palm of the evil dead son.
In just ten breaths, Ling Xiao gradually became stunned. Before Ling Xiao could react, Xie Shizi placed the animal skin in Ling Xiao's palm.
Feeling the powerful spiritual rhythm inside, Ling Xiao swallowed subconsciously. This was the first time Ling Xiao saw the refining of the talisman.
What this seemingly simple step requires is extremely precise control of the iron quality and timing and dosage.
And all this requires is extremely strong mental power!
