Chapter 571 3 Ambiguous True Fire
According to the records in the "Bagua Purple Gold Furnace": This Samadhi True Fire is a true fire bred by the fire in wood, the fire in stone and the fire in the air. It is the flame necessary for refining high-quality elixirs.
And this Samadhi True Fire is also a fire specially used by immortal qi practitioners. It is different from mortal flames and cannot be extinguished by ordinary water. It is far more powerful than the flames that Zhang Xiaohua can emit now.
Looking at the light red flame in the alchemy furnace, Zhang Xiaohua didn't seem to feel its heat, so she took out a piece of jasper from her arms, cut off a piece with a small sword, and threw it into the flame. She only heard " With a "chi" sound, the thumb-sized piece of jade immediately turned into a wisp of green smoke.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua secretly nodded, cut off another piece, and put the magic formula into the flames before throwing the jade piece in. This time, the jade piece did not leave and turn into blue smoke, but was tempered by the flames. Gradually shrinking, it was finally tempered into a piece of jade liquid the size of a soybean. Zhang Xiaohua moved his hand, and the jade liquid flew out of the alchemy furnace and stopped in front of Zhang Xiaohua's eyes. Zhang Xiaohua looked at the green jade liquid with his eyes. After another sweep with his spiritual consciousness, slight fluctuations of vitality came out of the jade liquid.
"The True Fire of Samadhi is really wonderful!" Zhang Xiaohua secretly sighed: "It's just that this fire is used to refine high-level elixirs, but refining low-level elixirs is a waste of time, which is not cost-effective."
After extinguishing the true fire of Samadhi, Zhang Xiaohua looked along the eight sides of the alchemy furnace. There were furnace mouths on all eight sides of the alchemy furnace. Each furnace mouth had a name, namely: Qian, Kun, Xun, and Dui. , Gen, Zhen, Li, Hom. Each of these eight furnace mouths has its own corresponding formation. When refining elixirs, if different herbs are put into different furnace mouths for tempering according to the properties of the herbs, it can add three points of medicinal properties and increase the yield by 20%. Dan rate.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaohua frowned slightly. He already had some experience with the properties of medicinal herbs. They should be divided into the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Why did the properties of Bagua show up here? He even set up eight formations based on eight properties. , Moreover, the term "rate of elixir formation" appears again. Is it really not easy to refine high-level elixirs?
However, Zhang Xiaohua can only refine low-level elixirs now, and has never even touched mid-level elixirs. How could he know the hardships of high-level elixirs? Fortunately, since this "Bagua Purple Gold Furnace" can refine high-level elixirs, If the "Samadhi True Fire" is not used for the elixir, it is the same as the elixir furnace in the Valley of Rejuvenation. It is more than enough to refine the "Runmai Pill".
The flames on the platform below the alchemy furnace are magical. They are different from the previous earth fires in the Alchemy Room in the Alchemy Room on the west side of the Rejuvenation Valley and Tianmu Peak. This flame is burning on the platform out of thin air. After Zhang Xiaohua finishes observing the true nature of Samadhi The fire extinguished the flames on the platform, and naturally swept the spiritual consciousness across the platform. However, there were complex symbols engraved on the platform, which seemed to be a formation. Presumably, the ground fire could be released under this platform. , and this formation law prohibits earth fire.
"The alchemy room on the west side of Tianmu Peak should have been the same as the platform in this alchemy room. However, no one could use the magic formula or didn't know how to start the fire. The platform was dismantled as a last resort and placed on the ground controlled by the agency. Fire it; maybe the Valley of Rejuvenation was like this thousands of years ago." Zhang Xiaohua thought.
After feeling the magic of the Immortal Way, Zhang Xiaohua followed the records on the alchemy furnace and typed out several more magic formulas. The "Bagua Purple Gold Furnace" turned out to be like a small alchemy furnace, roaring and shrinking a lot. Zhang Xiaohua took out his wallet. , took out the pile of jasper coffin lids, and tried to put the alchemy furnace in.
Afterwards, Zhang Xiaohua took out the two alchemy furnaces and piled all the less important things in the money bag on the ground, freeing up all the space in the money bag. That is, there are still a lot of medicinal herbs piled up on the mountainside of Tianmu Peak, which are all needed for alchemy. Although they are not valuable in the eyes of Tuodan Hall disciples, it is better to put them away as soon as possible.
However, it is indeed a bit troublesome to pack it up. If he puts all these jade boxes into his wallet and takes them back to the alchemy room at once, it will definitely attract the attention of other disciples, and at least make Chen Fengxiao doubt how he could do it. , or where are these jade boxes placed.
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Xiaohua turned her attention to the piled jasper coffin lids. Only by refining them into a jade box to hold the herbs could the herbs in the jade box be taken away.
Just do what you say, since there is earth fire in this elixir room anyway, just think that you are familiar with refining weapons.
So, Zhang Xiaohua raised the earth fire again, broke open the jasper, and wanted to refine a batch of jade boxes of different sizes.
The jade box containing medicinal herbs looks inconspicuous, but it is actually quite troublesome. It would be easier to handle if it were only a slender square like the disciples of Tuodan Hall of Chuanxiang Sect, but Zhang Xiaohua's jade box is subject to restrictions. , after only doing a few times, he felt that his Qi was insufficient, so he had to stop to replenish his Qi.
I kept doing this until it was getting late, but I only did a dozen or so.
Feeling that it was getting late, Zhang Xiaohua extinguished the ground fire and ran away without packing up her things.
On Tianmu Peak, the setting sun had already set in the west. Only the west was still a little bright, and the east had long since faded into darkness. When Zhang Xiaohua came out of the cave, she felt that her eyes were looking at her again. , the consciousness swept away, it was not Bai Huan squatting behind a big tree?
Zhang Xiaohua just didn't know. She walked slowly to the edge of the medicine field, lowered her head and took a closer look. She heard Bai Huan come out from behind the tree and said loudly: "Junior Brother Ren, it's already dark, why are you still wandering around in this medicine field?" ah?"
Zhang Xiaohua raised her head and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Senior Brother Bai. Alas, I stayed in the cave for a day and was very bored, so I came out for a walk. Oh, isn't this medicinal field not sprouting? I don't know why? What if? If we can find the reason, wouldn't it make our brothers in the grass department feel proud?"
"Pull it down." Bai Huan said with some disdain: "The 'Star Tree Fruit' originally planted on the top of Tianmu Peak is the main medicine used by the inner disciples to make alchemy. It has grown very well and has been growing for twenty years. The medicine is old, but four or five years ago, our hall master suddenly led the inner disciples over, looking for places all over the mountain peaks, and finally settled on these medicine fields, and picked all the original starwood fruits. Next to the transplant, some unknown seeds were planted. This was great. Since then, they have never sprouted again. Moreover, the disciples from the inner sect come to check every year and they still dig out the seeds. Look, I change the seeds from time to time. We can do something that their inner disciples can’t do? It’s almost like a dream!”
"Four or five years ago?" Zhang Xiaohua narrowed her eyes and thought to herself: "Isn't that the time when the Piaomiao Sect was exterminated? Was it also the time when the Chuanxiang Sect invaded the Piaomiao Villa? Could it be that the disciples of the Chuanxiang Sect saw Piaomiao The seeds sprouted in the Villa, so I thought of planting them myself! But, I don’t know what kind of herbs are grown in the Piaomiao Villa, and what kind of herbs are planted by the Incense Cult?"
"However, since even the germination of seeds requires very strong vitality of heaven and earth, this herb must be rare and abnormal, or something that has long been extinct! But since it is an extinct herb, where did they get the seeds from? Well, the vitality of the world of Chuanxiang Sect is stronger than outside, maybe the seeds can be preserved. Oh, what about Huanxi Villa? They can't preserve it, right? Oh, forget it, don't think about it, I'll ask Ou Yan when I have the opportunity. That’s my sister.”
After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaohua raised her head and said: "That's not necessarily true. The inner disciples are just better at martial arts than us. When it comes to growing medicinal herbs, doesn't the entire Incense Sect have to rely on our Caobu brothers from the Tuodan Hall?"
Bai Huan also smiled happily: "Junior Brother Ren is right, the herbs used by our Fragrance Cult are really the hard work of our brothers in the grass department." Then the topic changed: "But, what we grow are ordinary herbs. Those that do not germinate must be rare medicinal materials, and that is not the specialty of our grass department."
"Hehe, you also know that it is a rare medicinal material?" Zhang Xiaohua secretly thought, and then when he was about to speak, Bai Huan said first: "Anyway, I have no interest in this, I only need to water, weed, do my job, etc. The inner sect disciples are here to check. Oh, if Junior Brother Ren is interested in this, you might as well pay more attention. If you can really find the method of germination, you will be really prosperous. If you can win the favor of the inner sect disciples, you can go to the outer sect and become a disciple. It’s easy to become a disciple or go to the inner sect to learn alchemy.”
Zhang Xiaohua's heart moved and she asked: "Are there any inner disciples who can make elixirs?"
Bai Huan shook his head: "The inner disciples themselves do not make elixirs. There are special alchemists who make elixirs for them. Each of these alchemists is worshiped by the old men of our alchemy department. It is said that the 'Jade Return Pill' and so on are Only their inner alchemists can refine it, and their treatment is beyond your imagination."
"Huh? Are there any benefits that I can't think of? Oh, by the way, how do the inner alchemists make alchemy?"
"This..." Bai Huan hesitated a little and said: "To be honest, I have only seen the disciples of the Alchemy Department make alchemy. The few old priests who make alchemy are not as good as us. How can I know how the inner sect makes alchemy? Their treatment is not good. It’s a rumor from others, how could disciples like us enter the Relic Fragrance Peak?”
"Shouldn't we go to Yixiang Peak?" Zhang Xiaohua was a little curious.
"Well, only inner disciples, people related to inner disciples, and the hall masters and deputy hall masters of each hall can enter Yixiang Peak. No one else can enter."
"Where are the outer disciples?"
"Outer disciples are just disciples of Wu Ming Hall, and of course they cannot enter. However, if any outer disciple is very outstanding and can be worshiped by the inner disciple or favored by the inner disciple and accepted as a disciple, he can enter. Well, yes Or outer sect disciples can pass the inner sect examination and enter. Alas, it’s a pity. As far as I know, it’s been a hundred years, and except for a genius three hundred years ago, no one is qualified to do so. Assessment of the inner sect.”
"Inner sect assessment?" Zhang Xiaohua was stunned again. This was the first time she heard it.
"Well, the outer sect disciples have an assessment. If they pass, they can be qualified to travel in the world. The scores that pass this assessment are also divided into three grades: upper, middle and lower. Only the upper grades can qualify for the inner sect's assessment. , no one has received superior external examination results for hundreds of years."
