Chapter 389: Mastering the Art of Alchemy

Wei Zhong looked at the senior Yue next to him with a strange look on his face, recalling what Yang Jing said about how long it would take before the other party left.

It turned out that I was going to meet my little lover.

Looking at the latter's body, he looked like an ordinary ten-year-old child, but inside his body was a soul that lived for thousands of years.

"What are you looking at?" Yue Mingyu glared at Wei Zhong.

Wei Zhong first confessed, and then carefully said:

"Senior and this Elder Wang?"

The latter sighed:

"Oh, it's just a bad fate, you don't have to be curious."

Since the other party had nothing to say, Wei Zhong stopped asking questions and looked at the storage bag in his hand. He heard Yue Mingyu say:

"In the bag is a set of formation flags, which can be used to form the Spirit-Covering Universe Formation. The complete formation has one hundred and eight formation flags, which can be moved, intercepted... and affect the eighth-level spiritual veins.

“However, there are currently only eighteen formation flags here, which can only handle the early stages of seventh-level spiritual veins. Higher levels will be very weak.

"If you feel it's not enough, you can find spiritual materials yourself and fill up the remaining formation flags.

"The refining method, including the operation method of the formation flag, has been recorded internally."

Wei Zhong's consciousness reached into the storage bag and he saw eighteen formation flags arranged neatly.

The formation flag is black and red in color, with dense spiritual patterns on its surface, which is very extraordinary.

There is also one formation flag that is obviously thicker than the others, and it seems to be the main formation flag in this group.

There is a jade slip next to the formation flag.

Wei Zhong took it out and browsed it roughly.

Among them are not only the methods of refining the formation flags and the techniques of controlling the formations, but also some experience talks left by the elder Wang.

Wei Zhong put away the jade slips and the storage bag into his sleeves.

He bowed his hands towards Yue Mingyu:

"Thank you, Elder Yue!"

The other party nodded:

"Okay, you have done a good job in saving your fellow disciples, and I have fulfilled your request. Those seven people should be careful and don't let them die or become disabled."

"Elder, don't worry. The condition of several senior brothers has been stabilized. The disciples will use elixirs to treat them and they will recover before arriving at the sect."

"good!"

He patted Wei Zhong on the shoulder and then disappeared from Wei Zhong's eyes.

When Wei Zhong saw that the other party had indeed left, he muttered secretly:

"The elders of these sects really care about their reputation."

Shaking his head slightly, Wei Zhong flew away from the Chiyang Boat and entered the Mingyuanfang City again.

There are still a few Lianxu lying on the boat waiting for the elixir.

Wei Zhong was not sure that he could quickly refine the Lingbi Soul-Suppressing Pill, so he had to go to Mingyuanfang City to buy the Lingbi Soul-Suppressing Pill.

As he went and came back, Wei Zhong fed the elixirs to the wounded one after another.

In the remaining period of time, Wei Zhong took care of his injured fellow students while comprehending the "Spirit Revealing Universe Formation" in his hand.

Wei Zhong already had a rough idea of ​​how to use the formation, but he did not have the appropriate spiritual veins for Wei Zhong to practice it.

He had no choice but to turn his attention to the method of refining the formation flag.

Just as Wei Zhong thought, the formation flags within this formation are divided into main and secondary formation flags.

The main formation flag looks thicker and of higher quality.

The one in Wei Zhong's hand is a seventh-level low-grade one.

The other seventeen roots are of six levels, including upper, middle and lower grades.

At present, the level at which the eighteen formation flags can control the spiritual veins is only the seventh level.

If you want to increase its power, you must at least add the same eighteen formation flags.

This is just to deal with seventh-level low-grade spiritual veins.

To deal with the top grade, eighteen more are needed, for a total of fifty-four.

If Wei Zhong collects suitable spiritual materials and entrusts Yang Jing to refine these requirements, he can obtain them.

But if you want to target the eighth-level spiritual veins, it is different.

“At least one eighth-level main formation flag is needed.

"呲呲, an eighth-level magic weapon, is the rarest of the rarest."

Except for this set of formation flags and "Time Treasure Record".

Wei Zhong now only has a Heaven-Evolving Whip and a Double-Yearing Spirit Drum all over his body, which are seven-level magic weapons.

The eighth level is something Wei Zhong can't even imagine with his current ability.

"We have to wait until the Year of the Monkey to upgrade the weapon refining technique to the eighth level? I wonder if there are any eighth level weapon refining masters in the sect?"

Wei Zhong is only at the sixth level of weapon refining, and the eighth level is too far away.

To refine the formation flag, there are nearly a hundred auxiliary materials, but there is only one main material.

"The heart of the earth?"

It was another spiritual material that Wei Zhong had never heard of.

Sigh:

"The accumulation is still a bit poor."

Putting away the jade slip, Wei Zhong took out a golden orb from his arms.

Sixth level Wind-fixing Pearl.

A few days ago, Yang Jing handed Wei Zhong the Wind-fixing Pearl, and at the same time gave him a copy of the latter's experience in refining this treasure.

The other party seemed to have great confidence in Wei Zhong and had given many words of encouragement.

“It’s hard to find the precious material for refining the Wind-fixing Pearl!”

Otherwise, Yang Jing would have already refined the seventh-level Wind-fixing Pearl for self-defense.

After all, in Wei Zhong's view, the effect of this Wind-fixing Pearl at the sixth level is very extraordinary, and it will definitely be an incredible treasure when it reaches the seventh level.

‘Does it come from the weapon refining method of the fairy palace in the upper realm? Could it be that there are other magical weapons of the same type up there? ’

Wei Zhongzhen was thinking about it when a red-robed monk walked into this place.

"Senior Brother Yang!"

"Senior Brother Yang!"

"..."

The other disciples saw Yang Bao coming and called out quickly.

The latter nodded one by one before facing Wei Zhong.

As soon as Wei Zhong stood up, he heard the latter exclaim:

"Brother Five Colors has been in the limelight recently..."

Ever since he entered the Abyss, he has been staying there.

Now is the time to return to the spirit boat from the inside.

When Lingzhou returned, he heard about what had happened in recent days, especially the large-scale alchemy meeting and Wei Zhong's rescue of seven fellow disciples.

Wei Zhong just smiled at the latter's praise, and then asked about the latter's experience:

"Brother Yang, have you been living in the Abyss these days?"

The latter nodded affirmatively and told Wei Zhong the current situation.

It turned out that after the accident, that secret place was temporarily blocked by Yang Jing and others.

Several Dahedao returned briefly to deal with the disciple's injuries, and then began to study the secret place in depth again.

During this period, Yang Jing and others were sent out to look for traces of the black flame ghost horse that escaped from the cave.

"Since Brother Yang has returned, he must have gained something?"

The latter grinned:

"Brother Wuse still understands me.

"The Black Flame Ghost Horse is not simple. It took a lot of effort to find and capture it.

"Brother Five Colors, guess what, this Black Flame Ghost Horse is indeed a bit special.

"In addition to being an Inferi itself, he is also the guardian of the seventh-level cave.

"It's just that the age of the cave and the fact that we broke through the magic circle caused him to escape...

"And, I found a key on that ghost horse."

"Key?" Wei Zhong was stunned and couldn't help but think of the one in his hand.

Yang Bao leaned into Wei Zhong’s ear:

"According to the ancestor, the key matches the mark on the door of a secret place in the cave.

"But one hand is not enough, five are needed. The ancestor guessed that they were all taken away by those ghost horses. Currently, the disciples of our sect are looking for traces of the ghost horses on the sixth floor..."

Wei Zhong's eyes lit up slightly:

"Brother Yang, what does the key look like?"

"Although it has been taken away by the ancestor, I still have an impression." After saying that, the magic power in Yang Bao's hand solidified and condensed into a key that was as long as an ordinary person's finger.

'no the same. ’ Wei Zhong looked at it and shook his head slowly.

Yang Bao was surprised when he saw this, and Wei Zhong explained:

"To be honest, I recently got a similar key in Ming Yuanfang City.

"But it's slightly different from what Brother Yang showed."

"oh?"

Wei Zhong took out the spirit key and showed it to the latter. After looking at it, he couldn't see the reason.

Return it to Wei Zhong and say:

"Perhaps it's the key to opening other places inside the Deep Abyss. Brother Five Colors saved it and may be able to use it in the future."

Wei Zhong nodded and put it away.

"Next, Brother Yang is going to continue chasing the black flame ghost horse?"

The other party shook his head:

"I won't go, it's really uncomfortable to be in that damn place.

"It's so gloomy that it suppresses our spiritual energy... I don't know how the monks who have been exploring here all year round persist."

Yang Bao complained about the difference in environment across the abyss and continued:

"I plan to make some repairs this time. When the five keys are collected, I will follow my ancestor to see the excitement."

This is the advantage of the descendants of Mighty People, no matter what they do, there is always someone to protect them.

Wei Zhong mentioned the spiritual object of the Earth's Marrow Heart to the other party, and the latter let out an ooh after hearing it:

"So that's what it is."

Wei Zhong looked happy:

"Brother Yang knows?"

The latter definitely nodded:

"This thing is not easy to find. It is mainly found near the underground spiritual veins. It is difficult to search and very troublesome to collect, so there are not many in circulation on the market.

"This is the case even within our Five Elements Immortal Sect. If Brother Five Colors needs this thing, he can ask the fellow disciples of the 'Houtu Hall' and 'Earth Spirit Hall' after returning to the sect.

"They have been in contact with earth spiritual objects all year round, and they may have news about this object."

Wei Zhong was overjoyed to get clues from Yang Bao:

"Thank you, Brother Yang, for informing me!"

The other party waved his hand, indicating that he was welcome.

"Because of the cave's appearance, the spirit boat's stay will be extended.

"If brother Wuse is in a hurry, you might as well ask the local snakes below. You might gain something."

This is exactly what Wei Zhong did a few days ago.

And there are already clues, Feng Xihui and Ziqi Palace both said they have clues about this object, but it will take some time to actually transport it.

Yang Bao ended his conversation with Wei Zhong, expressed condolences to the wounded present, and then left.

Wei Zhong checked the recovery of his fellow disciples' injuries and took a short rest.

Instructing other disciples to take care of these seven people, Wei Zhong returned to his training cave.

In the alchemy room, Wei Zhong looked at the alchemy furnace placed in the center and waved his sleeves to throw out various spiritual materials.

"This Lingbi Soul-Suppressing Pill is indeed a bit difficult. If you destroy one part of the elixir, the remaining part cannot be wasted."

After Wei Zhong became familiar with the process of alchemy again, he lit the fire and started refining the elixir.

"The order...the heat...and the most important thing, use the power of the soul to suppress the special power of nourishing the soul in the elixir that escapes, and don't let it disperse out of the alchemy furnace. Otherwise, it will be another empty pill. Waste elixir..."

Wei Zhong murmured in his mouth, and his hand movements were like clouds and flowing water.

Waiting for the right moment, Wei Zhong's soul body escaped from his physical body.

It is the same size as Wei Zhong's physical body, and its body shape is solid and solid.

He opened his mouth and spat out a ball of breath that fell into the alchemy furnace and immediately formed a thin film of soul power inside the alchemy furnace.

Within Wei Zhong's field of vision, he could see countless black and gray particles escaping from the flames in the furnace and trying to escape to the outside.

But it hit the soul power film head-on, unable to make any progress.

"If there is a special material for the alchemy furnace, it won't be so laborious. Now we can only make do with it."

The fingers of Yuan Shen moved together, and the scope of the soul power film continued to shrink, compressing the black and gray particles and gathering them inside.

When he was able to press it close to the elixir liquid, Wei Zhong immediately controlled the elixir liquid that had not yet solidified to rise, and swept it all inside.

Then with a soft drink, the flames in the furnace suddenly rose, wrapping the elixir inside. At the same time, the temperature increased, accelerating the solidification of the elixir.

Not long after, an elixir slowly took shape in the furnace.

Wei Zhong Yuan Shen returned to his body, and his physical body stretched out his hand to clap, and the gray elixir bounced up from the furnace and fell into Wei Zhong's palm.

Looking at the elixir, a look of satisfaction appeared on Wei Zhong's face:

"It's finally done!"

Although there was only one elixir, it was still a breakthrough from zero to something.

At the same time, the panel in Wei Zhong's eyes flashed:

[Seventh level alchemy·Proficiency (1%)]

‘Finally advanced! ’

Since Wei Zhong's elixir technique entered the seventh level, I don't know how many sixth-level elixirs Qinjia refined before slowly pushing it to the entry level (99%).

After staying here for several more years, it was not until now that he refined such a spiritual jade soul-soothing pill that he could break through to the proficiency level.

"If I refine this elixir next time, it might still work. It's a pity that the elixir is gone."

Wei Zhong has also purchased relevant elixirs from Fengxi Society and other chambers of commerce these days, but unfortunately the results were not satisfactory.

Even the same kind of elixir from lower years has only been partially collected.

And because there is no special environment across the abyss, transplanted into the demon world and the spiritual land, the growth rate is very slow.

In this way, Wei Zhong's idea of ​​cultivating elixirs and refining this elixir on his own has been eliminated.

The alchemy was successful and Wei Zhong came out of seclusion.

While taking care of his injured fellow disciples, he practiced cultivation at the same time.

In less than half a year, all seven fellow disciples had recovered from their injuries and entered the Abyss again.

Without him, because his level of weapon refining is mediocre, he can only rely on such risky things to earn cultivation resources.

According to Yang Bao, among the sect disciples who can come to Longzang Secret Land, there are only a few who are good at their craftsmanship.

After completing the tasks assigned by the two elders, Wei Zhong called it a day and began to concentrate on his own practice.

Time passed like this, and it was several years at one time.

Across the sixth layer of the underworld,

Yang Jing and Yue Mingyu looked at the gloomy valley ahead and said slowly:

"I didn't expect that the passage between the sixth and seventh floors is actually in this cave."

"How about it? Do you want to announce it to other sects?"

Yue Mingyu shook his head:

"Don't worry, I'll explore the area behind the gate first to prevent anyone with ulterior motives from sneaking in."

He turned around and looked at the Lianxu disciple behind him:

"How's the search for the key going?"

The latter replied:

"Four handles have been found, and there is news about the last handle. It seems to have fallen into the hands of an elder from the Purple Qi Palace. Junior Brother Yang has already led the monks in the sect."

Yang Jing nodded:

"Tell that boy that you can buy it at a high price.

"If the other party is unwilling, force can be used if necessary."

"yes!"
