Chapter 69 The second-level alchemist fed by the elixir
A year later, Ning Daoran was forty years old.
"Exit!"
When he walked out of the secret room, he still looked like a young man, and at this time, his whole body was full of mana, reaching the peak of his Qi refining stage!
The Qi refining is complete and there is no further progress!
"It's time..."
Ning Daoran was a little excited. He cooked a few dishes with his own hands at noon, and after having a good meal with Da Benlu and Chen Weimo, he decided to start refining elixirs in the afternoon, and the one he refined was the legendary Foundation Establishment elixir!
In the elixir garden on the underground floor, purple blood ginseng, Ningxin grass, and Ganoderma lucidum are all mature and possess medicinal properties that have lasted for hundreds of years, meeting the standards for use as a foundation-building pill.
In addition, those auxiliary medicines have all matured, and the time to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill is completely ripe!
……
Twenty feet deep underground is the alchemy room.
Ning Daoran took out the special bronze alchemy furnace that was exchanged for 500 contributions, breathed out a mouthful of Samadhi True Fire, adjusted the heat, and then began to put in the elixirs one by one and start refining.
The recipe for the Foundation Establishment Pill has never been a secret. It has been widely circulated in the world of immortal cultivation, and this recipe has been revised and improved by generations of alchemists, resulting in various versions.
The most famous one is the version of "Zhang's Foundation Building Pill" that Ning Daoran bought with five spiritual stones from Qingfufang. It is said that the creator of this pill was a legendary fifth-level alchemy master, who was awesome at the time. A whole era!
“Zizi~~”
The true fire of Samadhi is lingering, and there are sounds from the alchemy furnace. Various elixirs are condensed into liquid medicine. Various chemical reactions are continuously occurring in the alchemy furnace, and the elixir is about to be condensed.
Ning Daoran's clear eyes were wide open. His achievements on the formation path made him a little swollen, and he felt that he should also make great progress on the alchemy path and march forward.
"You still won't give me the elixir?"
A trace of disdain flashed across the corner of his mouth: "I advise you not to be ungrateful!"
"Peng——"
When the alchemy furnace was opened, all the medicinal liquid was burned into coke, but no elixir was produced.
“As expected.”
After cleaning the alchemy furnace, Ning Daoran refined the elixir again with a calm expression, his eyes still bright: "There is a spirit in the sky, don't do anything to cause trouble, give me the elixir quickly, don't know what is good and what is evil!"
"Peng——"
Another furnace wasted.
Repeatedly, after refining more than thirty furnaces of elixirs in a row.
Ning Daoran's forehead was covered with sweat.
The process of refining alchemy is indeed elusive.
His mentality has undergone a huge change. He feels that even if he has sufficient reserves of elixir, he cannot continue to use it like this.
In the afternoon, Ning Daoran took a bath and fasted, and prepared to start refining elixir again.
He took the big stupid deer and kowtowed nine times to the alchemy furnace with a very pious attitude——
"Disciple Ning Daoran is now in heaven:
I am grateful to heaven for blessing me with spiritual roots and giving my disciples the opportunity to refine elixirs.
Respecting the inheritance of alchemy has achieved the foundation of building a foundation.
If the furnace is still not completed, it is due to the disciple's insufficient alchemy. It has nothing to do with heaven, and there will be no complaints at all!
The alchemy path is buzzing, the immortal path is shining brightly.
Respect the mysteries of Cangtian's alchemy method, and give this disciple the opportunity to build a foundation! ”
……
"Peng!"
Another furnace was completely destroyed.
Ning Daoran began to sweat profusely, hurriedly picked up the small notebook beside him, wrote down the reasons for the failure in detail, and then continued his efforts.
His eyes were already bloodshot, and he entered a state of madness.
A mere first-level high-level alchemy master directly forcibly cultivates a second-level great pill, the Foundation Establishment Pill. This is quite outrageous in the entire world of immortality.
Ning Daoran did not believe in evil and continued to refine pills one after another.
The big stupid deer was trembling and shaking all over. At this time, the elder brother was so scary, with all kinds of dangers in his eyes.
It hid in the corner and said nothing, wishing that the eldest brother would become an elixir as soon as possible!
In the secret room, the reserves of Foundation Establishment Pill medicinal materials are getting less and less.
Moreover, these elixirs are non-renewable, because although the three main herbs planted on Qibi Peak have matured, they have not produced seeds.
As for the reasons for not producing seeds, there are many reasons. Most likely, it is because the environment is not right. These main medicines only produce seeds in the Cangnan Secret Realm. Otherwise, I am afraid they would have spread in the world of immortality.
Late at night, there were still people in the alchemy room.
"Peng!"
With a soft sound, the alchemy furnace opened on its own, and an elixir jumped out from a wisp of five-color spiritual mist.
One of them was covered with dark cracks and was a useless pill. It was extremely poisonous and should not be taken.
The other pill turned out to be a dark blue pill with a light pill pattern.
Authentic Foundation Building Pill!
"It's done?!"
Ning Daoran held the Foundation Building Pill in his hands, feeling ecstatic in his heart.
Don't worry, if you refine a few more batches, the success rate will increase and you will be officially promoted to the second level alchemy master!
He was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and wrote down in detail the changes in heat, the ratio of herbs, etc. for this alchemy. After writing down more than three pages, he started to make the alchemy again.
The next furnace was useless again.
But the next batch turned out to be a success, and even produced a high-grade foundation-building pill.
In this way, Ning Daoran's understanding of the Foundation Establishment Pill is getting deeper and deeper. When the elixir is almost used up, it can be guaranteed that two of the three batches of elixir will be successful!
The second-level low-grade alchemist is done!
……
early morning. "Exit!"
Ning Daoran walked out of the alchemy room with great joy, came to the sun, bathed in the morning light, held his head high and held his chest high. At this moment, Ning Daoran could finally feel proud!
Second level formation master, second level alchemy master!
Just relying on these two names, he is enough to have an iron rice bowl in the cultivation world. Any sect or any fairy city will rush to win over a talent like Ning Daoran.
Just...
The second level formation master really relies on talent and qualifications.
As for the second-level alchemy master, he really relied on the elixirs. In the past half month, he has been refining waste elixirs one after another. If other alchemists knew that he was refining the foundation-building elixirs in this way, I am afraid that They all feel heartbroken.
In the world of casual cultivators, many casual cultivators gather materials together to build a foundation elixir, and then ask a well-known second-level alchemy master to open the furnace. Basically, the chance of the elixir becoming a pill is over 80%.
There was no one like Ning Daoran who used Foundation Building Pill materials as consumables to become a second-level alchemist.
At this time, his medicine bottle contained two high-quality Foundation Establishment Pills with golden elixir patterns, three top-grade Foundation Establishment Pills, eight genuine Foundation Establishment Pills, and five inferior Foundation Establishment Pills!
With such resources, the foundation building matter is basically stable!
……
At this moment, bad news came from the inner door.
Senior brother Lin Sheng failed to build the foundation, and his Taoist heart was severely damaged!
In the Cangnan Secret Realm, Lin Sheng's elixirs were also among the top ten in the sect, and he also obtained a foundation-building pill.
Not long ago, Lin Sheng applied for a cave in the sect and decided to build a foundation.
But after a few days, the foundation building failed, and his character was still a little worse.
"Old Lu, are you going to see Senior Brother Lin?"
"Ouch!"
One person and one deer came to the mountainside of Zhenyang Peak in the inner gate.
The small tile-roofed house stood there alone, and now it was even more deserted. Lin Sheng failed to build the foundation at the age of fifty, and it was basically impossible to have any chance in the future.
First, he was practicing the True Yang Furnace Technique. At this age, his blood energy had begun to decline, which was not conducive to foundation building.
Of the two, the Foundation Establishment Pill rewarded by the Cangnan Secret Realm group is already Lin Sheng's biggest opportunity. It will be difficult for him to get another Foundation Establishment Pill in the future. During the Qi Refining Period, he wants to collect the spiritual stones to purchase the Foundation Establishment Pill. , how difficult is this?
"Senior brother, Lao Lu and I are here to see you."
"Junior brother..."
Lin Sheng walked out, with a look of vicissitudes of life and weather on his face. He said with a hint of guilt: "Senior brother, you have been embarrassed. The foundation building failed. I am afraid that this life will be..."
"What is the word that senior brother said?"
Ning Daoran said: "I just want to ask, is it really because of the difficulty in building the foundation that senior brother failed?"
"A little bit..."
Lin Sheng slowly sat in the chair, seeming very tired: "At the moment when I was about to build the foundation, I suddenly felt that my heart was undecided, and I didn't have a strong determination to build the foundation. I don't know why this happened."< br>
There is something wrong with self-confidence.
"The Lin Sheng I know is brave and diligent, but he never lacks determination."
Ning Daoran raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "Senior brother, since we have embarked on the path to immortality, we should know in our hearts that the world is huge and the path to immortality is the largest. If you are hindered by a woman, are you still the Lin Sheng I know? ”
"Junior brother..."
Lin Sheng smiled miserably: "Do you even think I'm a waste?"
"I never think that senior brother is a waste."
Ning Daoran raised his eyebrows and said: "Senior Brother Lin who did not hesitate to do the most dangerous inner sect mission, who spent a lot of contribution to redeem the Evergreen Secret Art for me, is like a peerless hero to me, and is definitely not the one in front of me. Such a useless look!
Senior brother, why don't you think about the crux? I think... you should find yourself again before you met Liu Ruyan. ”
"Junior Brother Ning..."
"Stop talking."
Ning Daoran's eyes were cold: "Can a mere failure in foundation building really defeat my senior brother Lin Sheng?"
Saying that, Ning Daoran gently placed a jade bottle on the table and said: "Old Lu and I are waiting for Senior Brother Lin's second foundation building. It's nothing more than starting over from scratch. The lower-grade spiritual root contribution killed Lin Sheng is among the top ten in the inner gate, I don’t believe that a mere foundation building can stop him!”
"Junior brother..."
When Lin Sheng looked up again, Ning Daoran and Big Stupid Deer had already walked away.
He slowly stood up and picked up the jade bottle, and poured out a Foundation Establishment Pill with five golden pill patterns.
Excellent foundation building pill!
Lin Sheng trembled all over, and his eye circles instantly turned red.
……
A few days later.
Ning Daoran began to prepare for foundation building. He first went to Qingfufang and purchased a medium-grade spiritual stone. Although it was a bit redundant, he had a medium-grade spiritual stone with him that could absorb spiritual energy at any time and could also be used as foundation-building spiritual energy. Alternatives when insufficient.
Afterwards, Ning Daoran went to the inner gate to apply for the caves needed for foundation building.
"What?"
An inner sect deacon was shocked: "Master Nephew Ning wants to build the foundation? Have you already perfected the Qi refining? This foundation building matter is not a trivial matter. Don't rush through it. This will only lead to endless troubles."
"Uncle, don't worry, I have perfected my Qi refining."
He stopped pretending and showed his cards.
As soon as he loosened the breath-containing technique, the aura of Qi Refining Perfection surged out from his whole body, even stronger than the ordinary Qi Refining Perfection!
"Sure enough..."
An outer sect elder said: "Which level of cave should Ning Ning apply for to build the foundation? At present... the sect has three levels of aura foundation building caves: third-level mid-level, third-level low-level, and second-level high-level. , outer disciples can apply for the second-level top grade..."
"Wait."
Suddenly, a familiar voice came. Jiang Yu, who was wearing a moon-white flowing cloud dress, appeared in the inner gate hall and said calmly: "A third-level middle-grade cave mansion has been specially approved to build the foundation for Junior Brother Ning."
