Chapter 14 Fire Control Gourd

Liu Yuanchen came to the shop of Wanbao Chamber of Commerce. As soon as he walked in, the shopkeeper came to greet him. ɱ

He looked at Liu Yuanchen meaningfully, and then greeted him politely: "My friend from Qingdan Sect, was the alchemy furnace working well last time?"

Liu Yuanchen bowed his hands and saluted: "Wanbao Chamber of Commerce is well-deserved, and the alchemy furnace is indeed useful.

I came here this time to see if your store uses fire-controlling magic tools."

The middle-aged monk smiled and said: "Of course, as long as it is not a strategic material, our store can take out some.

Xiao Zhang, take this guest to see the fire-controlling magic tools."

Soon, a young man in his twenties came out. He saluted Liu Yuanchen and said: "Please follow me, guest."

The two came to the small room at the back where the magic tools were placed, and the young man took him to a weapon rack in the corner.

There were the fewest magic tools on this rack, only three pieces.

The servant introduced: "Fire-controlling magic tools are extremely rare, and not many cultivators use them. They are one of the least popular magic tools.

There are only these three in our store, all of which are first-grade top-grade."

Then, he pointed to a magic tool similar to a bowl: "This is a fire-gathering bowl, the main material is red flame stone, and some black iron is added to increase the strength.

When using it, you can put it under the alchemy furnace, inject mana, and flames will gush out of the bowl.

After recognizing the master, the gushing flames are very easy to control."

"The disadvantage is that the strength is not high. Once the flame is too strong, the bowl may collapse.

Moreover, it cannot cooperate with spiritual charcoal and earth fire, and can only rely on burning mana to spray fire.

When refining the elixir, the mana consumption will be relatively large.

Among the three fire-controlling magic tools, this one is the cheapest, only fifty spirit stones are needed."

The servant obviously felt that Liu Yuanchen was not well-off, so he directly introduced the cheapest one.

"Although this fire-gathering bowl is good at controlling fire, it cannot be used with spiritual charcoal and earth fire.

When using it, you have to use your magic power to stimulate it, which will affect the success rate of the pill. There is not much point in buying this bowl."

The servant also nodded: "What the guest said is very true. This magic weapon does have some defects, otherwise it would not be sold so cheaply."

He pointed to a fiery red cover, which was shaped like a soup bowl, with many holes on it and three fire dragon reliefs.

"This is the Fire Dragon Cover, the main material is the Flowing Flame Black Iron.

This object itself will not emit flames, but it can suppress flames.

Put it on top of the spiritual charcoal or the fire eye, and you can easily adjust the fire temperature without consuming your own mana.

Moreover, this Fire Dragon Cover is extremely strong and can also be used as a defensive magic weapon.

It is especially effective in resisting fire attacks."

"The disadvantage is that it can only lower the fire temperature, but not increase it.

If you want to get a higher temperature, you need to add more spiritual charcoal, and the loss will be relatively large.

This one is a little more expensive, requiring sixty spiritual stones."

This Fire Dragon Cover is quite interesting, and it can also be used as a defensive magic weapon, but it is a pity that it can only defend, not attack.

Moreover, this thing is like a sieve, and its defense ability against needle-type magic weapons should be extremely poor.

Liu Yuanchen pointed to the last fire control magic weapon: "Where is this gourd?"

This gourd is about one foot high, the whole body is fiery red, and it also has a small section of gourd vine like a dragon head.

The servant replied: "This gourd is called the Fire Control Gourd, and its main material is the first-grade superior spiritual plant Blazing Fire Gourd.

This Fire Control Gourd was made by a second-grade weapon refiner in Qingdan City, who originally intended to refine it into an offensive magic weapon.

Unfortunately, something went wrong when condensing the inscription pattern, resulting in insufficient power of the ejected flame, so it was transformed into a fire control magic weapon.

The grade also dropped accordingly, becoming a first-grade superior magic weapon.

The role it plays in controlling fire is similar to that of the fire-gathering bowl.

It cannot be used with spiritual charcoal and earth fire, and can only be used alone."

"However, there is a small space inside this gourd that can store mana.

The mana can be input by the cultivator, or it can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth by itself.

Store the mana in the gourd in advance, and only a small amount is needed when refining the elixir. 's spiritual consciousness, you can control the gourd to spray out flames.

The size of this flame can be adjusted at will. "

"Because this fire-controlling gourd is originally an offensive magic weapon, it can also be used in fighting.

But the power of the flames it sprays is not too strong, at most it can severely injure ordinary late-stage cultivators of nourishing qi.

In addition to spraying fire, it can also absorb the opponent's fire attribute attacks, which can be regarded as a defensive function. "

"Of course there are flaws. If it is forced to drive it so that the flames it sprays reach a level that can severely injure Qi Hai cultivators, the flames may get out of control.

However, there is no problem in refining pills.

When this magic weapon was refined, several alchemists tried it. The flames were completely sufficient for refining second-level medium-quality pills. "

When Liu Yuanchen heard this, he was a little moved.

This thing can also attack and defend. Before the Qi Hai realm, it can fully meet the needs of fighting.

"How much mana can be stored in this fire-controlling gourd at most?"

Seeing that he was interested in the fire-controlling gourd, the servant also became interested: "It is about equivalent to the spiritual energy in ten low-grade spirit stones.

The mana of a general cultivator in the middle stage of cultivating qi is about this much.

Sir, you are a wood-attributed cultivator. Wood produces fire. Your mana injected into it can also produce flames."

Liu Yuanchen asked: "How many spirit stones are needed?"

The servant quickly replied: "This fire-controlling gourd was originally intended to be refined into a second-grade low-grade magic weapon.

Although there are some problems with the inscription, the embryo and materials are all at the level of second-grade low-grade, so the price will naturally not be much cheaper than that of a second-grade low-grade magic weapon.

The price given by the weapon refiner was eighty spiritual stones. "

The cheaper second-level low-grade magic weapon generally requires about one hundred spiritual stones.

If there are no problems in refining this fire-controlling gourd, it would not be an exaggeration to sell it for two hundred spiritual stones.

Eighty spiritual stones is not expensive to buy such a gourd.

Especially Liu Yuanchen needed a fire control weapon. This gourd could also be used for offense and defense, which could be said to kill two birds with one stone.

He happily handed over the spirit stone and took the gourd in his hand.

It's a pity that this gourd has an inner space and is also a space magic weapon. It cannot be put into a storage bag, otherwise the gourd and the storage bag will be torn apart by the power of space.

He hung the gourd on his belt and left the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.

After he left, the middle-aged monk arrived on the third floor.

"Master Steward, I sensed the presence of Gang Qi in that Qingdan Sect disciple. He should be the Earth Immortal Dao monk."

The young man's voice came: "It is indeed Gang Qi, but he is not an Earth Immortal monk."

The middle-aged monk was a little surprised: "How is it possible? In the current cultivation system, only Earth Immortal Dao monks can practice Gang Qi."

The young man smiled and said: "He does have Gang Qi in his body, but it is not the Yuang Qi of the Earth Immortal Dao, but the Blood Gang of the Flesh Dao.

Condensing the blood will consume a lot of energy and blood.

If you don't have enough resources and force yourself to practice, you may risk your life.

Resources are scarce in the Red Wasteland, and there is no future for this boy to practice the Blood Gang Secret Technique. "

“The Yuan Gang of Earth Immortal Dao was improved from this Blood Gang secret technique.

The current Earth Immortal Dao is nothing more than the result of some improvements after the physical Dao cannot be cultivated.

As early as the birth of the Earth Immortal Way, the Blood Gang Secret Technique was gradually eliminated.

Unexpectedly, a place like Red Wasteland could still retain the secret technique of Blood Gang.

It seems that the ancient monk's cave that has caused a lot of noise recently has really produced a lot of good things. "

“Remember the fundamentals of our chamber of commerce, which is to only do business and not get involved in the battles between local forces.

No matter how many good things come out of the ancient monk's cave, it has nothing to do with us. "

…

After Liu Yuanchen left the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, he went to the Liu family's elixir shop and bought twenty copies of the elixir of recovery.

Leave the elixir shop and go straight back to Yujin Mountain.

After entering the alchemy room of the cave, he couldn't wait to take off the fire-controlling gourd.

Use essence and blood to condense the universal inscription of identifying the Lord to complete the identification of the Lord.

He then began pouring mana into the gourd.

After consuming half of his own mana, he opened the gourd lid and injected a small amount of spiritual consciousness into the gourd.

As soon as his mind moved, a stream of red flames burst out from the gourd's mouth.

The entire alchemy room instantly became hot.

"It is worthy of being a first-class magic weapon. The power of this flame is much stronger than the spiritual charcoal fire."

Slowly suppress the flame and get familiar with the temperature of the fire before taking out the alchemy furnace.

The first time he used the fire-controlling gourd to make an elixir, he chose the simplest Bigu Pill.

During the alchemy process, as long as his mentality did not fluctuate, the change in flame temperature was almost negligible.

Only when the fire temperature is actively adjusted, there will be slight fluctuations.

The first batch of Bigu Pills yielded four pills, almost the same as before.

However, the consumption of spiritual consciousness is much smaller, and there is no difficulty in controlling fire.

The second batch of Bigu Pills yielded five pills, with a success rate of over 80%.

Immediately afterwards, he refined several furnaces of Bigu Pills in succession, with an average rate of over 70%.

He felt excited: "This magical weapon is really worth buying. It saves you the trouble of buying spiritual charcoal, and the rate of elixir formation has also increased by more than 10%."

The next day, Liu Yuanchen adjusted his condition to the best, filled the fire-controlling gourd with mana, and began to refine the elixir.

With the assistance of the fire control gourd, the level of fire control is greatly improved.

The first batch of recovery elixirs produced six elixirs.

A few days later, all twenty copies of the healing elixir were used up, resulting in one hundred and forty-five elixirs.

Among them, there are forty good-quality healing pills, and the good-quality rate has reached 20%.

In addition, a top-quality elixir was also refined.

Generally, Huiling Pills are milky white pills the size of longan.

There doesn't seem to be much difference between good and ordinary elixirs.

Although the top-quality elixir is also milky white, it gives people a sense of transparency and has a sheen like white jade.

What makes an elixir become the best is that the essence of the elixir that was previously fused has not been lost at all and is all left in the elixir.

During the process of extracting the essence and blending the essences of different elixirs, almost no impurities are mixed in.

During the process of removing the juice from the fire, not a single bit of the liquid elixir was scorched.

It is extremely difficult to achieve this by relying on strength alone, and there is also a lot of luck involved.

Even a master of alchemy cannot say that he will definitely be able to refine the best elixir.

But as long as it can be refined, it means that the alchemist is already the best among the same level.

Later, Liu Yuanchen tried to refine a more difficult Qi-nourishing pill.

Refining the Qi Nourishing Pill requires twelve kinds of elixirs. The types are more than twice as many as the Spirit Recovery Pills, and the difficulty is naturally much higher.

However, with Liu Yuanchen's rich experience, Cheng Dan's rate was not bad.

Five elixirs can turn into up to fifty pills. In fact, seventeen pills can be turned into pills, and the pill yield rate exceeds 30%.

…

A year later, Liu Yuanchen was in the alchemy room of Yujin Mountain Cave, staring at the alchemy furnace with all his concentration.

After a while, he put the flame at the bottom of the furnace back into the gourd.

A burst of magic power passed by, and five gray-white elixirs flew out of the furnace.

Liu Yuanchen's palm was wrapped with a layer of Gang Qi, and he grabbed the elixir in his hand.

"I can produce five awakening pills in one furnace. Among the first-level high-grade alchemists, I can be regarded as the first-class one."

Put the Awakening Pill into the pill bottle and go outside the cave to see the spiritual field.

It was past noon, and as soon as I left the cave gate, I saw a figure fetching water from the well.

"Hey! Where did this little thief dare to steal water from the Qingdan Sect's territory?"

After saying that, he rushed forward in one stride.

The fire-bending gourd was already in his hand, ready to release flames at any moment.

The figure turned around: "Junior Brother Liu, don't do anything, it's me, Zhang Jingcheng."

The man's clothes were ragged and his hair was unkempt. It was hard to tell who he was, but his voice was still identifiable.

Liu Yuanchen put away the fire-controlling gourd: "Senior Brother Zhang, why are you dressed like this? Are you going undercover among the casual cultivators?"

Zhang Jingcheng scooped up a ladle of water and drank it.

He breathed a long sigh of relief: "Forget it, I have been constantly harassed by evil cultivators these days. I am really exhausted both physically and mentally.

Today there is a new batch of disciples taking rotation, so I can go to the rear and take a rest.

When I walked to Yujin Mountain, I really ran out of energy, so I came to ask for a drink of water, and I almost got killed by you. "

"I don't have the ability to return to the sect today, so I will stay here temporarily."

Liu Yuanchen took out three pills: "I have a spirit-reviving pill, a Qi-blood pill, and a Bigu pill. Senior Brother Zhang should be interested."

Zhang Jingcheng swallowed and reached out to take it: "Thank you, junior brother."

Liu Yuanchen put his hand away: "The Spiritual Recovery Pill now has two spiritual stones and one spiritual stone. I will give you one spiritual stone.

There are three spirit stones for each Qi and Blood Pill. I will give you two spirit stones. "

Zhang Jingcheng said in a formal manner: "Your Majesty is my aunt from the same clan, and you are my cousin. It's too hurtful for us cousins ​​to talk about spiritual stones."

Liu Yuanchen looked like he couldn't get enough: "My dear brother, I have already given you a discount, and I will also give you a Bigu Pill for free."

Zhang Jingcheng sighed: "Our brotherly love is only worth two spiritual stones."

Liu Yuanchen retorted sincerely: "That's not possible, you have to add another Bigu Pill."

"I owe you the spiritual stone first. I will pay it back to you when my salary comes down this month."

"It's a small business, no credit required."

Zhang Jingcheng had no choice but to reluctantly take out three spiritual stones and buy three pills.

After taking it, I quickly became more energetic.

Liu Yuanchen was a little curious: "What kind of moth happened in Wuyun Ridge to make you so tired? Could it be that the legendary weird creature jumped out?"

Zhang Jingcheng shook his head: "If a strange creature really pops out, can I still come back alive?

Even if the Qi Sea Realm monks encounter strange creatures, few can come back alive. "

“Speaking of which, this matter still has something to do with the original ancient monk cave in Black Wolf Valley.

The first abnormal movement occurred there, followed by abnormalities in many places in Wuyun Ridge.

You should know about Jin'ao Mountain, which is more than three hundred miles away from Yujin Mountain, right? "

Liu Yuanchen nodded: "I know, there is plenty of rain there, and there is also a mountain lake called Jin'ao Lake."

"Yes, it's about Jin'ao Lake.

A month ago, the water level of Jin'ao Lake dropped sharply, and many casual cultivators went there to join in the fun.

The disciples of the sect also went over to check and found a vein of spirit stone there. "
