Chapter 168 Five Elements Pill Recipe
However, Xiao Lin did not show it on his face, but only showed a happy expression.
"Hehe, don't be too happy too soon. The art of alchemy is very practical. It's useless if you only have the recipe but no spiritual herbs to refine it."
"That's right, Senior Brother Xiao."
"Oh, by the way, do you live in Qingzhu Peak?" Xiao Yishao asked, suddenly remembering something.
Seeing Xiao Lin nod, Xiao Yishao's young face suddenly showed a speechless expression: "Why did you choose that corner of the mountain? The spiritual energy is so thin. I see that you are fine, so don't go back. Just stay here. Anyway, you can choose any of these stone chambers."
"Uh, will it disturb Uncle Tao's practice if you stay here all the time?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yishao rolled his eyes at Xiao Lin: "Do you think Uncle Tao's practice cave is here? Anyone who successfully builds a foundation can open up his own cave within the sect of Dancao Mountain. What's more, Uncle Tao is a true disciple. Her cave is halfway up the Qingdan Mountain. The spiritual energy is very abundant. Unless you are refining spiritual pills, you won't see Uncle Tao for ten days or half a month."
"I see." Xiao Lin's face showed surprise. The spiritual energy in this spiritual field is much richer than the spiritual energy at the foot of the mountain. Practicing here is naturally a surprise to him.
"Oh, by the way, I still have to complete the monthly chores." Xiao Lin suddenly remembered that when he first joined the sect, the person who guided the outer disciples said that for the outer disciples, most of the chores were done by the mortals down the mountain, so he couldn't stay here to practice all the time, he still had to go back and complete the chores frequently, otherwise he would be punished by the sect.
Xiao Yishao immediately rolled his eyes at Xiao Lin speechlessly: "You are already an alchemy boy, so those menial tasks are naturally unnecessary. You should just follow me and cultivate the spiritual medicine outside every day."
After a pause, Xiao Yishao continued: "Oh, by the way, there is a side hall in that stone hall, which contains the spiritual medicine recipes collected by Uncle Tao over the years. You can go and study them when you have time, but remember that there are some notes of Uncle Tao's experience in alchemy. You can read them, but no matter whether it is the recipe or the notes, you can only read them and cannot spread them. Otherwise, Uncle Tao will be furious and I will not be able to protect you."
Hearing this, Xiao Lin naturally nodded without falling, and at the same time he was very surprised. He was originally worried about how to start learning the recipe, but he never thought it would be so simple in the end.
However, after thinking about it, Xiao Lin understood that the reason why there was no elixir recipe in the task reward in the Merit Hall was mainly because the recipe was useless to most cultivators, and as the foundation of Dancao Mountain, the recipe would not be leaked so easily.
But it was naturally different for the alchemists in the sect. Although Xiao Lin was not a formal alchemist, as an alchemy boy, he assisted the alchemist in refining elixirs, so he naturally had to understand the recipe of the elixir to do some corresponding auxiliary work.
Xiao Lin wanted to go directly to the stone hall to learn the alchemy experience left by Uncle Tao, but Xiao Yishao took him to the spiritual field on the pretext that he was not in a hurry.
After going to the spiritual field, Xiao Lin finally understood that Brother Xiao had no good intentions. Although the spiritual medicine grown in the spiritual field was nourished by spiritual energy, it also needed basic elements such as water and soil.
Therefore, daily irrigation is necessary, but it is not difficult for Xiao Lin. After reciting a water control spell, a small rain cloud suddenly formed several feet above the spiritual field.
It took only more than half an hour to irrigate the spiritual field, which made Xiao Yishao, who practiced the gold-attributed technique, stunned for a long time, and then said that the job of irrigating the spiritual field would be handed over to Xiao Lin in the future.
Xiao Lin knew from Xiao Yishao's cunning eyes that he was tricked by this senior brother, but there was nothing he could do about it. Although Xiao Yishao was younger than Xiao Lin, he was still his senior brother.
Moreover, he was able to get the opportunity to read the second-level spiritual pill recipe thanks to this senior brother Xiao Yishao, so it was natural for him to help him do something.
When Xiao Lin was pinching the spell to irrigate the spiritual field, Senior Brother Xiao disappeared, but Xiao Lin didn't care. After irrigating the spiritual field, he couldn't wait to return to the stone hall.
Entering the side hall on the right, there are two bookshelves in the side hall. On one of the bookshelves are many books with yellowed covers, and on the other bookshelf are more than a dozen jade slips that are shining with bright green light.
"Shui Ling Dan, Huo Ling Dan, Mu Ling Dan, Jin Ling Dan, Tu Ling Dan, Nei Yuan Dan, Pu Fa Dan, Gu Mai Dan..."
Looking at the names of the elixir recipes on the bookshelf, Xiao Lin couldn't help showing ecstasy on his face. Looking at the dazzling array of recipes in front of him, Xiao Lin actually felt a kind of shocking joy.
The reason why Xiao Lin took so much effort to pass the cave trial, pick the purple spirit flower, get the Dao Order, and worship in Dancao Mountain was just to seek a higher-level elixir recipe.
And now, not only has his goal been achieved, but he has unexpectedly obtained so many elixir recipes, which makes his hands tremble with excitement.
After a cup of tea, Xiao Lin calmed down his excitement.
At this time, Xiao Lin saw a white jade slip on the innermost bookshelf. This white jade slip looked a bit different, and was placed alone on the top of the shelf.
What surprised Xiao Lin was that there was no name of the elixir recipe under the white jade slip, which made him look surprised.
Xiao Lin took the white jade slip and curiously probed into his spiritual sense to check it.
But when he saw the name of the recipe, he was shocked and opened his eyes suddenly. In addition to shock, he was more surprised.
"Foundation Building Pill Recipe?"
Xiao Lin never dreamed that what he wanted was available in this small stone room, looking at the white jade slip in his palm.
Although it has been rumored that the foundation building pill recipe is only available in Dancao Mountain, Xiao Lin doesn't believe this statement. How can the other four major sects let others strangle their throats?
The other four major sects must also have this recipe, and this recipe for the foundation-building pill was casually placed in this stone chamber by Master Tao, so it was obviously not an absolute secret.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lin took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged again, put the white jade slip into his palm, and began to check it.
......
In the following time, Xiao Lin lived a regular life under the arrangement of Xiao Yishao. Every morning, Xiao Lin would go to the spiritual field first and irrigate the spiritual field with a spell.
In this process, Xiao Lin would also inspect the spiritual field and check the growth of various spiritual medicines. After confirming that there was no problem, he would return to the stone chamber and concentrate on studying the recipe in the stone chamber.
Xiao Lin had already been familiar with the recipe of the Five Elements Spiritual Pill. In the refining of the Five Elements Spiritual Pill, except for the main medicine of the Five Elements Spiritual Grass, the two auxiliary medicines of Ice Yin Grass and Fire Scale Fruit, the other auxiliary medicinal materials were relatively common and not difficult to find.
After reading the recipe of the foundation-building pill, Xiao Lin finally understood why the purple spirit flower was precious. What surprised Xiao Lin was that the purple spirit flower was not the main ingredient for refining the foundation-building pill, but a medicine guide.
Moreover, the purple spirit flower was not only a necessary medicine guide for refining the foundation-building pill, but he also learned from the notes of the uncle Tao, whom he had never met, that the purple spirit flower was also a necessary medicine guide for refining the Jade Flame Pill.
After learning this information, Xiao Lin was really shocked. The Jade Flame Pill was a kind of elixir that could accelerate the condensation and quenching of the elixir liquid during the process of refining the golden elixir by the peak foundation-building cultivators, thereby increasing the success rate of refining the golden elixir.
The Jade Flame Pill was a genuine third-level elixir, and the refining process was extremely complicated. Not only did it require the purple spirit flower, but it also required dozens of precious spiritual medicines. This also made Xiao Lin understand why the five major sects were so obsessed with the purple spirit flower.
Moreover, through the alchemy notes, Xiao Lin also understood that the purple spirit flower was precious because it could not be planted in the spiritual field. In addition to spiritual energy, the growth environment of the purple spirit flower also required a special element.
But the notes did not say what the specific element was. It only said that in the spiritual fields of the five major sects in the Tianlu Mountains, experiments had been conducted. As long as it was planted, it would basically wither and die in less than ten days.
It was precisely because of this that the two precious cultivation resources, the foundation-building pill and the green flame pill, were extremely scarce.
When Xiao Lin saw this, he deliberately returned to the stone room and entered the spiritual wood space to check the purple spirit flower he planted. But what shocked Xiao Lin was that the purple spirit flower he planted in the spiritual wood space not only did not wither and die, but instead showed a vibrant appearance.
And the color was much darker than when he planted it. Seeing this scene, Xiao Lin's heart couldn't help but beat violently.
The purple spiritual flower, which is generally recognized as being impossible to grow artificially in the Tianlu Mountains, can actually thrive in the spiritual wood space. If this news spreads, it may cause a violent shock to the entire Tianlu cultivation world.
After Xiao Lin came out of the spiritual wood space, it took him half a day to calm down his excitement.
After calming down, Xiao Lin resumed his regular life. He took care of the spiritual field every day. After doing all this, he entered the secret room and concentrated on studying the pill recipes and the alchemy notes left by Uncle Tao.
Although Xiao Lin had not met Uncle Tao yet, he was very impressed after reading the alchemy notes she left. For the refining of the second-level spiritual pill, she had already reached a very high level.
The steps in the process of refining the spiritual pill were also described in great detail, and even the scenes of each step were recorded in the notes through words.
The stone chamber not only records the recipes of more than a dozen first- and second-level elixirs, but also records the habits, age, and growth environment of the spiritual medicines needed to refine these elixirs.
These are all cultivation knowledge that Xiao Lin has never come into contact with. Xiao Lin is very clear that if he were to accumulate this knowledge on his own, he would probably not be able to understand it so clearly without hundreds of years.
These books and jade slips made Xiao Lin feel like he had found a treasure. In addition to taking care of the spiritual fields every day, the rest of his time was basically spent on studying alchemy and spiritual medicine.
Senior Brother Xiao showed up several times during this process, and after confirming that there was no problem with the spiritual field that Xiao Lin was taking care of, he disappeared completely, and no one knew where he went.
Xiao Lin naturally didn't care about these things. He was the only one left in the entire spiritual field, which made him even more satisfied. Moreover, the stone doors of the dozen or so alchemy rooms could not be opened from the outside as long as the people who entered closed them from the inside.
This made Xiao Lin even more relieved. During the day, he took care of the spiritual field and studied various alchemy knowledge in the stone room. At night, he returned to the alchemy room to digest what he had learned during the day. In addition, Xiao Lin would spend some time every day to take care of various spiritual herbs in the spiritual wood space.
