After being taught the Alchemy Manual and basic alchemy to Su Lingxiu, Su Lingxiu began to refine other elixirs. The refining of each elixir was slightly different.
After all, refining alchemy requires summing up experience, and not every time you can make it successfully.
It is also destined that refining alchemy consumes a lot of medicinal materials.
"Ordinary people really can't afford to practice elixir medicine and martial arts."
Li Xuan sighed.
Alchemy, medicine and martial arts are doomed. It is too difficult for poor people to practice it.
Just the cost of refining the elixir is unaffordable.
Su Lingxiu began to refine the Bone Tempering Pill, which was a pill she could use, and also refined the Qi and Blood Pill to store it. Zhou Ying wanted to switch to martial arts.
First of all, we need to sense Qi and blood. We can only use Qi and blood pills to enhance Qi and blood, and then sense Qi and blood to refine skin and bones...
Shi Er looked depressed. He had almost no share in the successfully refined Qi and Blood Pills. He could only obtain the half-waste Qi and Blood Pills.
The speed of cultivation in the Qi and Blood Realm has become slower.
In order to obtain Qi and Blood Pills, he could only look for the medicinal materials needed to refine Qi and Blood Pills. Su Lingxiu bluntly said that she would give him a preferential price and use three ingredients to refine a furnace of Qi and Blood Pills.
Li Xuan sighed: "It's really easy for an alchemist to get rich. If it were in the inner realm, Su Lingxiu wouldn't have to worry about medicinal materials at all. Someone would come to her door to ask for alchemy."
It is difficult to get started in alchemy and martial arts, and it is difficult to support it without strong financial resources. However, if you successfully get started and master the art of alchemy, you will be able to relax.
It is enough to rely on alchemy to obtain the medicinal materials you need.
"Try the effect of the Bone Tempering Pill."
Su Lingxiu held the newly refined bone-tempering pill in her hand and swallowed it directly in her mouth.
The elixir melts in the mouth, and a stream of heat enters the body, spreading throughout the bones of the body, and a slight numbing feeling comes.
She ran the bone refining technique and began to refining her bones.
"The bone-tempering pill is very effective. The speed of bone refining has been increased by about 50%. If there is a spiritual medicine and it is refined with the spiritual medicine, the effect may be even more amazing."
Su Lingxiu was very excited.
"It's golden bone. This girl breaks through the bottleneck and enters the stage of tempering golden bones with one bone-tempering pill. It's really fast."
Li Xuan sighed in his heart and became more and more doubtful whether Su Lingxiu had a special physique.
on the hill.
Meng Chong closed his eyes slightly, holding the handle of the knife with one hand. As his Qi and blood circulated, the golden bell of the sun continued to rise, and he was not far away from reaching the perfection of Qi and blood.
pounding...
His mind was concentrated, feeling himself and the sword.
At a certain moment, he seemed to find the sword in a trance, and it trembled slightly.
"Illusion?"
Meng Chong continued to hold the sword, and suddenly, the feeling of the sword trembling came to his mind again.
However, his hand holding the handle of the knife clearly did not feel the vibration of the knife.
Thump, thump...
Feeling his heartbeat, he suddenly felt the vibration of the sword again, as if it appeared with his heartbeat.
"Nurture the sword with your heart, and the sword resonates with your heart..."
Meng Chong was overjoyed. Could it be that he was about to succeed in raising the sword?
"Don't be distracted, don't be arrogant, don't be lazy, stay calm..."
The mind gradually calms down, the mind is introverted, the mind is aware of itself, and it feels the beating of its own pulse, the beating of the heart, and the circulation of qi and blood.
Gradually, the feeling of the trembling sword continued to appear in my heart, gradually becoming clearer, and slowly becoming more consistent with the heartbeat, as if it was resonating with the heartbeat.
"I feel fast."
Meng Chong murmured to himself.
…
Wu State, endless mountains.
Since Meng Chong showed his prowess, there has also been a craze in Wu State to search for masters, and the number of people entering the Wushan Mountains has gradually increased.
Including members of the Wu royal family and the children of ministers.
The first to enter the Endless Mountains were undoubtedly the famous figures in the Wu Kingdom, Senior Wu and his two disciples.
Somewhere in the endless mountains, the valley is deep and the forest is so dense that there is no sunlight. What is even weirder is that not a single bird song or insect chirp can be heard.
In the deathly silent valley, there is a crack on the steep mountain, as if it was cut by a knife. The crack goes deep into the mountain and can't be seen to the end.
It's deep, dark, and cold... There seems to be a cold wind blowing out of the cracks in the mountains.
Senior Wu and his disciples were walking through the cracks in the mountains.
One disciple was in front of him, and the other was behind him. He was walking in the middle, with excitement and regret in his eyes.
That was more than eighty years ago. He was chased by his enemies and hid in the endless mountains. He accidentally came to this valley, hid in this mountain crevice, and killed the enemies in a sneak attack.
He was also seriously injured. After climbing into a crevice in the mountain, he accidentally discovered a strange rattan. The blood flowing from his body dripped on the rattan.
It was actually absorbed by the cane, and the fruit hanging on the cane slowly turned red and exuded an alluring aroma.
He lost too much blood and was dizzy. He plucked the fruit and ate it.
After eating, he fell into a coma.
When he woke up, he found that the cane had withered, but his whole body was full of strength, especially his mind was clear and full of energy. He could not sleep for ten days and ten nights without feeling sleepy.
He knew that he had encountered a great opportunity, so he immediately continued walking into the mountain crevice. After only walking about a hundred feet, a cold wind blew, and the deep and bottomless mountain crevice seemed to have a devil opening its mouth, waiting for him to take the initiative to enter.
In this environment, he was afraid and retreated.
More than eighty years have passed, and he is still full of energy at the age of 100. He has become a highly respected figure in the world of Wu. All of this is related to the original fruit.
He also came here again, but never saw the second fruit.
I never dare to go deep into the mountain crevices.
The appearance of Meng Chong made him realize that he might have missed a great opportunity, so he came with his two disciples.
Walking hundreds of feet into the mountain crevice, the cold wind blows from the mountain crevice, making people shiver.
The dark, deep, and dead mountain crevices, if you walk alone, you may not be able to withstand the fear in your heart.
"Master, do you want to continue moving forward?"
The disciple in front took out a luminous pearl and illuminated the dark mountain crevice. In the faint light, looking forward, the deep mountain crevice seemed to swallow people up.
"Your master and I missed opportunities because of fear when we were young. Are you going to miss opportunities too?
"Think about Meng Chong's power, don't you want to be like him?"
Senior Wu said in a deep voice.
"Master is right!"
Disciple Sun gritted his teeth and continued to move forward.
The cracks in the mountain began to go down, getting deeper and deeper, and the cold wind also became colder.
The temperature keeps dropping.
Just when the three of them were almost unable to hold on, they were afraid and wanted to withdraw.
Suddenly, a little light appeared in the front.
"Hurry, it's almost here, the opportunity has come!"
Senior Wu said with great joy.
The three people moved forward quickly and came to the light. They found that at the end of the mountain crevice was a cave, and in the center of the cave was a pool of water.
The pool gave off a faint silver light, illuminating the surroundings of the cave.
"This is?"
Around the pool, there are some silver grass growing, giving people a sense of aura.
There seemed to be some vague patterns carved on the stone walls of the cave.
"Are those martial arts skills? Could the water in this pool be a treasure?"
Senior Wu walked into the cave excitedly.
The two disciples and grandson were also very excited.
The three of them came to the pool and looked at a few silver grasses, which were clearly not ordinary medicinal herbs.
The water in the pool exudes silver brilliance, is dense and beautiful, and is a treasure.
"Master, when I was young, I once read in a storybook that there is a kind of spiritual water in the world that can wash the body and rejuvenate the youth. Could this be it?"
As his disciple said this, he took off his clothes and walked into the pool naked.
Seeing this, the other disciple quickly took off his clothes, walked into the pool, and soaked himself in it.
"Master, please come down quickly. The water in this pool is so bright. I feel exhausted!"
One of the disciples shouted.
Senior Wu hated the iron and said: "You are stupid. What is the best effect if you drink this spiritual water? By drinking it, aren't you dirtying the spiritual water?"
The two disciples were stunned for a moment, and they were completely confused.
"Young man..."
Senior Wu shook his head and sighed, preparing to take off his clothes and go in for a dip. If he could be rejuvenated...
suddenly!
His expression condensed, something was wrong!
The expressions of the two disciples were dull, their eyes were dazed, as if they had lost their minds.
As expected of a veteran, he had been able to escape fatal crises several times. At this moment, he turned around and ran out of the cave without hesitation.
His figure is strong and healthy, and he doesn't look like a centenarian at all.
However, with a thud, a large stone fell from the entrance of the cave, blocking the exit.
Senior Wu's heart trembled, and when he looked back, he suddenly became horrified.
In the pool, strips of white, almost transparent bugs were burrowing into the bodies of the two disciples. A screeching sound was heard, and it was visible to the naked eye that the disciples' bodies shrank.
In the end, only the clothes were left, and even the hair disappeared.
Gudong!
Senior Wu's face turned pale, and such a terrifying scene made his scalp numb.
Those white, almost transparent bugs emerged from the pool, merged with each other, and turned into a strange transparent bug with blood red inside.
The insect with no eyes and no visible mouth squirmed towards Senior Wu.
Senior Wu looked stern, drew his knife and slashed at the insect, but in an instant, the insect disappeared.
He felt a pain between his eyebrows, something penetrated into his head, and his consciousness began to become confused, as if his consciousness was being swallowed.
He wanted to make a sound, but when he opened his mouth, there was only a gasping sound.
"It's you who took the bait I left outside, but didn't come in, causing me to be trapped here and unable to leave even half a step..."
Senior Wu's pupils shrank, and a cold voice emerged in his mind. His only consciousness was to ask in fear: "Who are you? Senior, please spare your life..."
"You deserve to die. You took my bait and didn't come in, causing me to be trapped here."
The cold voice seemed to be very angry: "You have come this far, you are so hateful, your body is almost useless!"
Senior Wu's last remaining consciousness: "My disciple is young, senior..."
He felt a little aggrieved. He thought he was old, so stop staring at him. Aren't his disciples young?
"The blood food has not taken my bait, it is not suitable for... Jie Jie."
A cold voice laughed.
Senior Wu's last consciousness completely disappeared.
Senior Wu, who was lying on the ground, suddenly shook his body, and then stood up. His eyes had become cold and an angry voice came out of his mouth.
"How can I use such an old body? How can I regain my strength..."
After moving his old body, Senior Wu showed a look of helplessness on his face.
Looking towards the pool, he jumped into the pool.
As if he was running his skills, he opened his eyes for a long time with a look of reluctance.
"Damn it, this is a borderland, there is no spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and there is no way to practice sensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."
The silvery brilliance of the pool water gradually dimmed and eventually disappeared.
He stood up from the pool, pondered for a while, raised his hand to pull up a small silver grass, swallowed it directly into his mouth, and continued to perform the exercises.
"Finally regained some strength."
Looking at the other silver grasses, he pulled out another one and swallowed it in his mouth.
"Two plants are almost the limit."
With a look of helplessness on his face, Senior Wu pulled up the remaining few silver grasses and put them away, then closed his eyes.
"Consciousness is confused, there is not much left, Wu Guo... is a famous figure in the world? Hey, this is it?"
Suddenly, Senior Wu's eyes lit up.
"Hahaha, God will not destroy me, my blood spirit child, how can there be such a physically powerful person in this borderland?"
Xue Lingzi laughed heartily.
"This horse-carrying young man has a very strong body. If he can devour his flesh and blood, this old body can become younger and his qualifications can be improved.
"As long as you return to the inner realm and practice quietly for some time, you will definitely be able to restore your previous cultivation level."
Xue Lingzi was so excited that he dug out a light brown long knife with serrated edges in the corner of the cave.
"My precious sword has faded away. How many years have passed?"
Xue Lingzi sighed.
Holding a knife, he split the stones at the entrance of the cave and walked into the crevices of the mountain. His excited voice echoed in the crevices: "Young man carrying the horse, you are my Blood Spirit Son, the cornerstone of my comeback. As long as I devour you...
Damn it, this bastard is so old that his consciousness is mixed and he cannot fully remember his memory...
“What’s the name of the boy carrying the horse and where is he?
"After leaving, go to the Kingdom of Wu. I am a famous figure in the world. Just ask someone to find out.
"Hahaha, just wait for me. I, the Blood Spirit Son, will definitely make you live in fear again!"
Xue Lingzi walked out of the ancient silence and walked towards the endless mountains. On the way, he met people from the Wu Kingdom who came to the mountains to look for masters.
"Senior Wu!"
When people in the world saw him, they hurriedly saluted him.
"Jiejie...this bastard is quite famous."
Xue Lingzi laughed sinisterly.
The few people in the world who were saluting were suddenly startled. They felt that something was not quite right about Senior Wu.
"Come and eat my blood."
Xue Lingzi's serrated knife swung and killed the Jianghu people instantly. A cold force swallowed up the flesh and blood essence of the Jianghu people.
"Bah, bah...it tastes too bad. I won't eat it. I'll just eat the boy who carries the horse."
Xue Lingzi took a few mouthfuls.
He continued walking outside, "I merged with the Blood Soul Insect. After devouring the horse-carrying boy, I had to find a way to peel it off. Otherwise, I would just be occupying this body in the form of a Gu."
He met several more people from the world. He grabbed them and asked coldly: "Do you know where the young man carrying the horse is? What is his name?"
The faces of those people in the world were pale and fearful. This Senior Wu seemed to be a different person?
"He, his name is Meng Chong, we don't know where he is."
"Meng Chong?"
Xue Lingzi wrote down the name, then waved the knife, "If you don't know where the person is, then go die!"
