Chapter 834: Refining Alchemy in Seclusion (Part 1)
Master Yang wants to retreat and study alchemy. In the ears of many big figures in the spiritual world, this is not something worth making a fuss about. .It’s just an ant practicing in seclusion, who will pay attention?
But in the hearts of the monks who have ascended in the past five hundred years, this is definitely huge news. From the time they knew about Yang Chen until the time when Yang Chen ascended, there was never a time when it was explicitly stated that he would go into seclusion to study alchemy. This retreat can only explain one thing, that is, after the retreat, either Yang Chen becomes a sixth-grade alchemist, or a pill that shocks the world appears.
In the history of alchemy, it has never taken less than five hundred years to advance from a fifth-grade alchemist to a sixth-grade alchemist. It can be said that except for Yang Chen, almost all other alchemists were only completing their promotion from fourth-level alchemists to fifth-level alchemists within the first few hundred years after their ascension.
But Yang Chen is an exception. Even if Yang Chen can only ascend for a few decades, even if Yang Chen says that it will only take a few decades to retreat, don't forget that Yang Chen was a golden elixir stage monk hundreds of years ago. By that time, he had already become a fifth-grade alchemist. It has been more than hundreds of years now.
Anyone who knows how to make alchemy understands that the key to a fifth-grade alchemist becoming a sixth-grade alchemist is not the level of cultivation, but the understanding and implementation of a series of methods such as the temperature of the medicinal materials and the alchemy techniques and prescriptions. Knowing what Yang Chen disclosed Anyone who knows the secrets of alchemy knows that Yang Chen is not lacking in these aspects. Then the only thing that can restrain Yang Chen is the mortal environment.
In the case of insufficient spiritual pressure, there is a high chance of failure in forcibly refining the sixth-level elixir. Now that we have reached the spiritual world, this problem naturally does not exist. What everyone is particularly interested in is whether Yang Chen can break through to the level six alchemist this time.
Yang Chen is indeed going to stay in the sect for a while and go into seclusion. After arriving in the spirit world, Yang Chen has been running for the sect. After obtaining the territory, he immediately went to the Heart Conch Water Mansion. After securing the Water Mansion, he encountered Daluo Jinxian coming down to earth, forcing himself to deal with the gods. knowledge problem.
Fortunately, the unblocking of Chong Lao and Hai Lao bought Yang Chen enough time. At least for a few hundred years, Yang Chen no longer had to worry about his spiritual consciousness. Xuantianmen's secret support also allowed Chunyang Palace to completely gain a foothold and no longer have to worry about anything.
However, Yang Chen was also a little tired from the battle of wits and courage with the core leaders of Xuantianmen. Although he didn't face more than ten people, those ten people were arguably the ten most powerful people in the spiritual world. They were in charge of the minds of the huge Xuantian Sect. If someone accidentally showed their flaws, they would be doomed.
Even with Yang Chen's caution, he was walking on thin ice in front of the core leaders of Xuantianmen. If he hadn't had the experience of facing the old and new Jade Emperors and the Taoist ancestors of the Sanqing Dynasty, he might not have been able to survive. For someone with the same level of cultivation as him, as long as he stood in front of those big shots, he might have been forced by their aura and have flaws all over his body.
Everything has gone on track, now it's time to calm down and practice carefully. Yang Chen knew very well that whether it was revenge or for his future life, improving one's own cultivation was the only correct path. Forging iron requires one's own hard work, and one's own cultivation is not very good. It is absolutely impossible to survive a lifetime just relying on cleverness.
In terms of practice, Yang Chen knew that he was in a hurry. If the original essence was replaced by any single one, it could quickly adapt to the spiritual pressure of the spiritual world. However, when combined together to form the Great Yin and Yang Five Elements Jue that can be practiced at the same time, This adaptation process will inevitably be much slower.
As Li Cheng said, if you don't practice 100 million Zhoutians, you don't need to truly understand the mystery of the original body. If you want to truly understand and adapt to the Five Elements of Great Yin and Yang, you can only practice persistently. Yang Chen practices the Great Yin and Yang Five Elements Technique continuously every day, but it cannot be said that he has to enter the practice state all the time. It is enough to maintain the daily ** every moment.
The rest of the time is naturally spent on refining alchemy. When Yang Chen said he wanted to go into seclusion to refine elixirs, he really meant to go into seclusion to refine elixirs. He had already chosen the elixirs he wanted to refine, so he chose the Yiyuan Marrow Pill. The monks usually called it the Marrow Pill for short.
The Essence Pill is not the most valuable pill, but it is definitely one of the most difficult to refine. As the name suggests, the purpose of this elixir is to nourish the essence of the human body. Although it does not have the effect of reshaping the body and changing the spiritual roots, it can maintain the monk's body to its best condition.
Usually Yumui Dan is taken when people are in retreat. Generally speaking, the purpose of retreat is to achieve higher cultivation or achievements. The brain is used more, and the energy and energy are concentrated in the brain, so the body will naturally be deficient. No matter how high a monk's cultivation level is, it is impossible for him to forget all about himself and still remember to refine the essence of body maintenance all the time, so the Marrow Essence Pill was used.
During the operation of the medicine, the monk's body essence is nourished to the extreme by the power of the medicine. This is the effect of the Marrow Essence Pill. After taking the Yumui Pill, no matter how hard you think about the problem in retreat, your body will not age or be injured due to insufficient nourishment. You must know that many people sometimes retreat to death, which does not necessarily mean that there is no possibility of breakthrough. It is just that by the time they figure it out, their bodies have deteriorated to the point that they cannot withstand their cultivation.
Generally, monks can stay in seclusion for decades or even hundreds of years, which is the limit. If it is any longer, there will definitely be physical problems. But it's different after having the Marrow Pill. It can completely withstand longer periods of retreat. For monks in the spiritual world, this is definitely a good thing that can be encountered but cannot be sought.
If you want to regulate the bodies of various monks, naturally the requirements for the Marrow Essence Pill are very high. Needless to say, the raw materials are all the best tonics, and the refining techniques are even more complicated. There are so many great tonics that not only require the king and ministers to work together to balance the efficacy of the medicine, but also the power of the medicine must reach the whole body. The medicine must not be too powerful or insufficient. The difficulty of refining is definitely higher than that of the Neicha Dan Wenxin Dan. hundred times.
The most powerful marrow-accumulating pill that people have ever seen in the spiritual world is the fifth-turn marrow-accumulating pill. This is already the limit that an ordinary seventh-level alchemist can achieve. Although it is only a fifth-turn refining, it is no less difficult than refining an ordinary seventh-turn elixir.
To use a vivid metaphor, master's students may not necessarily be able to complete the difficult exercises required by senior high school students. Otherwise, theoretically, master's students should get full marks when taking the college entrance examination. In the same way, the vast majority of seventh-level alchemists may not be able to refine the fifth-level marrow accumulation pill. Only extremely outstanding seventh-level alchemists can do it.
