Chapter 18 Alchemy Mission

Zhang Jingming has good talent and is the hope of the Zhang family.

However, he is still a good person.

Occasionally, when he meets Liu Yuanchen, he is willing to say hello.

Liu Yuanchen has a good impression of Zhang Jingming, a cousin who is not related to him at all.

He took the gift box: "My two cousins ​​are too polite. It's just a small matter. Why are you so polite?".

Seeing him accept the gift, Zhang Jingming breathed a sigh of relief: "Our two families have always been of the same blood. The Chen family has oppressed our two families for hundreds of years. In the future, our two families must join hands to fight against the enemy."

"Of course." Thinking of what happened in Shennong Hall a few years ago, Liu Yuanchen gritted his teeth.

"Even if it's not because of family hatred, just because the surname Chen oppressed me, this hatred must be avenged.

The Zhang family is my mother's family, not an outsider, and we should support each other."

This time Zhang Jingming came here to congratulate and deepen the relationship.

Knowing Liu Yuanchen's attitude, the purpose was achieved.

Afterwards, the few people stopped talking about family cooperation and talked about some interesting things casually.

Soon, the servants in Chunfeng Tower brought various dishes into the private room.

Liu Qingyuan invited everyone to start eating: "This Phoenix Bathing in Fire is the signature dish of Chunfeng Tower. The raw material is the first-grade top-grade Phoenix Feather Pheasant, which is very rare.

And this Chunfeng Brew is also a famous fine wine in the Red Wasteland.

Today is a family banquet, let's not be polite."

The few people present were not too rich, and they usually couldn't bear to eat such dishes with spiritual beasts as the main ingredients.

Everyone started eating together, and soon the dish was finished.

Zhang Jingming nodded with satisfaction: "The spiritual chefs in Chunfeng Tower are really good!"

The so-called spiritual chefs use various spiritual objects to make spiritual meals that are helpful for cultivation.

The spiritual meals made by excellent spiritual chefs are not inferior to ordinary elixirs in assisting cultivation.

Therefore, the status of spiritual chefs in the world of cultivation is still not low, and they earn a lot of spiritual stones.

Qingdan Sect also set up a spiritual chef hall, which is responsible for training spiritual chefs and developing various spiritual meals.

Anything related to food and drink in the sect is under the management of the Spirit Kitchen.

The Spirit Kitchen is also responsible for brewing spiritual wine and developing wine recipes.

After eating and drinking, everyone chatted for a few words and then dispersed.

Liu Yuanchen returned to the cave and took out the two gift boxes he received.

He opened the gift box sent by the Zhang family, and found two pieces of yellow paper with complex inscriptions on them, which were talismans.

The so-called talismans are inscriptions unique to the talisman path drawn on special talisman paper, and injected with magic power at the same time.

This magic power can be provided by the talisman master himself, or he can draw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and inject it into the talisman.

By activating the talisman, various spells can be released.

Moreover, as long as the talisman master controls the special talisman, even if he has not practiced this spell, he can still draw the corresponding talisman.

Before using it, a small amount of spiritual consciousness and magic power needs to be injected into the talisman.

When it is time to use it, the talisman will be automatically activated with just a thought.

The pillar industry of the Zhang family is talisman making. Although the inheritance is average, it can still support a family.

Most of the children of the Zhang family in the Qingdan Sect are also in the talisman hall.

Liu Yuanchen carefully distinguished the two talismans, namely the Vajra Talisman and the Golden Knife Talisman, both of which are first-class top-grade.

When the Vajra Talisman is used, a Vajra cover will be formed around the user's body to resist attacks.

As for the Golden Knife Talisman, a golden knife will be released when used, which has a strong defense-breaking ability and is a common single-target killing talisman.

These two talismans plus one should be worth more than a dozen spiritual stones.

Although the gift is not heavy, it is also the intention of the Zhang family.

Then, Liu Yuanchen opened the gift box sent by Liu Yuanqi.

There was a withered and yellow spiritual medicine inside, which looked like a tendon with scales on it.

This spiritual medicine is called Dragon Tendon Grass, which is one of the auxiliary medicines for refining Gumai Dan.

Gumai Dan is an auxiliary elixir for cultivators in the Yangqi realm to break through the Qihai realm. Its function is to temporarily strengthen the meridians.

It prevents a large amount of mana from flowing into the meridians from the middle dantian when the breakthrough fails, causing damage to the meridians.

Liu Yuanchen is not worried about the blood and mana, and the spiritual consciousness can also be compensated by elixirs.

However, breaking through the Qihai realm is not a sure thing.

Even if the blood, mana and spiritual consciousness are qualified, there is a certain chance of failure.

Once failed, the person will become a cripple at best, and die at worst.

After taking Gumai Dan, the failure of the breakthrough is only the damage to the meridians, and it is likely to be fully recovered after a few years of recuperation.

Gumai Dan is a second-level low-grade elixir. With Liu Yuanchen's current alchemy skills, it is impossible to refine it.

However, there are a few seeds left on the dragon tendon grass, which can be planted in the blessed land.

Dragon tendon grass is just an auxiliary medicine, not particularly precious, but it can also be worth twenty or thirty spirit stones.

Liu Yuanqi, a disciple of the Guard Hall, could not afford this gift.

Therefore, the one who gave the gift should be Liu Qingyuan.

He did not give anything else, but gave the spiritual medicine Dragon Tendon Grass for refining the Solid Vein Pill.

Liu Yuanchen could guess his intention, which was nothing more than wanting him to help Liu Yuansi break through.

There are several kinds of elixirs needed to break through the Qi Sea Realm, and the family should only have the Blood Jade Pill.

If you buy other elixirs, it will cost at least 5,000 spirit stones.

Moreover, the auxiliary elixirs for breaking through the Qi Sea Realm are strategic resources, and you may not be able to buy them if you want to.

Only the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce in Qingdan City will auction such elixirs from time to time.

It is unknown when you can buy them.

Compared to buying these elixirs, it is more reliable to collect the elixirs and ask an alchemist to refine them.

If one family can't get it together, several groups can work together to get the elixir.

Liu Yuanchen, a member of the Liu family, was more reliable than asking an outsider to make elixirs.

Helping others make elixirs is also one of the alchemist's main businesses, and there are naturally many benefits. The remuneration is the most basic, and you can also get the elixir recipe by the way.

Especially when refining such a strategic elixir, as long as one can be made into an elixir, people will be grateful.

If there are a lot of Cheng Dan, it is not a big deal to keep one or two for yourself.

…

Just a few days after the peaceful days, the atmosphere inside the mountain gate became tense.

The sect first restricted disciples from going out and recalled those who were traveling abroad.

Half a month after Liu Yuanchen joined the Pill Hall, he received an order from the Master of the Pill Hall.

All alchemists belonging to the Alchemy Hall are on standby at Qingdan Peak.

Liu Yuanchen naturally did not dare to neglect and hurried to the main hall of the elixir hall. There were already many people waiting in front of the main hall.

Not long after the meeting, more than a hundred disciples gathered outside the main hall of the Pill Hall.

At this time, a dignified middle-aged man walked out of the hall.

Everyone bowed and saluted, and shouted in unison: "See the Hall Master."

Although Liu Yuanchen had never seen the master of the elixir hall, he also saluted.

The master of the Pill Hall is named Zhang Yi, and he is a close disciple of the current sect leader.

In terms of seniority, he is considered a junior among many elders.

But if he can become the master of the elixir hall, he will naturally be valued by the sect master.

There are rumors that he is the successor trained by the sect leader.

Zhang Yi waved his hand: "No need to be polite."

"The sect master has ordered that all the disciples of the Pill Hall should do their best from today on to refine the Bigu Pill, Huiling Pill, Shengji Pill, and Awakening Pill...

All the elixirs needed are provided by the sect.

The sect will purchase more than 40% of the Cheng Dan at a fair price.

If the elixir success rate is less than 40%, then refine simple elixirs.

There should be no less than five alchemy furnaces per day, and the elixir yield rate is lower than the fourth level. You have to pay for it yourself. "

“From now on, you are not allowed to leave the sect without an order.

The Lingchutang will be responsible for the food for the disciples who stay at Qingdan Peak to refine alchemy.

If there is no doubt, you can go and make alchemy now. "

All the alchemists were confused. The sect's restrictions on alchemists had always been relatively small, and they didn't need to refine several batches of elixirs in a month.

There was such a sudden movement this time, which made people overwhelmed.

Seeing that everyone had no doubts, Zhang Yi walked into the hall.

A young alchemist asked an old man next to him: "Manager Han, you have been in the alchemy hall for more than a hundred years, do you know what is going on?"

Manager Han looked calm and calm: "It's not surprising. Such a heavy alchemy task happened more than a hundred years ago during the war with the Moyun Sect.

As early as more than two months ago, I heard that the sect discovered the spirit stone vein on Jin'ao Mountain.

The Moyun Sect also wanted a piece of the pie and kept harassing them nearby.

The group of people in the Guard Hall have fought many times with the monks of the Moyun Sect.

The commotion this time is so big, it is likely to start a war with Moyun Sect. "

“Before the war, it is natural to prepare more elixirs.

Don't worry, we alchemists don't have much work, so we will only be busy for a while.

No matter how much elixir the sect stores, it will eventually run out.

In as little as half a year, as little as one or two months, all the elixirs in stock will be exhausted.

By then, we won't have many tasks left. "

After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Five furnaces of elixirs a day may not seem like much, but it definitely consumes a lot of mana and consciousness.

Many alchemists need to spend a long time adjusting after refining a batch of elixirs.

Five furnaces of elixirs a day, spent most of the day adjusting.

A dignified alchemist is respected wherever he goes. If he is forced to work all the time, wouldn't he be like an ox and a horse?

Liu Yuanchen did not act alone. Together with other alchemists, he walked to a smaller palace-style building nearby.

On the plaque above the palace door, there are three characters "Ground Fire Room" written on it.

The hall was extremely empty, with a huge hole in the center from which waves of heat continued to pour out.

Everyone walked along the stone stairs to the bottom of the cave.

Not long after, we came to a huge cylindrical space.

The middle of this cylindrical space is empty, and the surrounding stone walls are divided into more than ten levels, with each level having a circular rock corridor.

The corridor is close to the side of the rock wall, and small stone houses are carved out.

At a rough look, there are five to six hundred huts in this underground space.

Zheng Qian, who had previously assessed Liu Yuanchen, was now in charge of distributing elixirs at the entrance of the Earth Fire Chamber.

The other alchemists were obviously very familiar with this place. After receiving some elixirs from Zheng Qian, they chose a small stone house and walked in.

Liu Yuanchen smiled and said: "Manager Zheng, I want five copies of the refreshing elixir."

Zheng Qian handed him a storage bag: "As long as you can refine another high-quality Awakening Pill, I will ask the hall master for a reward on your behalf."

"Thank you very much, Manager Zheng."

I chose a small stone house. The underground fire room is no different from an ordinary alchemy room.

It's just that there is an additional formation to trigger the earth fire, and the fire temperature can be adjusted through the formation.

Liu Yuanchen had no experience in controlling earth fire, so he still used the fire-controlling gourd to make elixirs.

The fire attribute aura here is extremely rich, so there is no need to worry about running out of mana in the fire-controlling gourd.

Refining the Awakening Pill is already a familiar process.

One furnace of elixirs took less than a quarter of an hour, and in less than an hour, all five furnaces of elixirs were refined.

After walking out of the Earth Fire Room with the elixir, Zheng Qian was surrounded by several alchemists of a certain age.

One of the old men took out four pill bottles: "Old Zheng, here are forty awakening pills.

There are twenty more, each worth five spirit stones, so you have to make up for me with a hundred spirit stones. "

This old man has a powerful aura and should be a monk in the Qi Sea Realm.

Zheng Qian checked them one by one, then put away the elixirs and gave the old man some spiritual stones.

After the alchemists settled the accounts, Liu Yuanchen took out three pill bottles.

"Manager Zheng, these are the twenty-six awakening pills that I have refined. Six of them are good ones. Take a look."

In the current war, if you want to ensure safety, you must show your value.

You can't make progress too fast in terms of cultivation, because it will be too eye-catching.

But alchemy basically relies on understanding.

Once you understand something thoroughly, you may be able to make rapid progress in alchemy just by taking a nap.

Now he has shown a strong talent for alchemy, which will not arouse suspicion and can also show his own value.

When refining the elixir, Liu Yuanchen didn't hold anything back.

Hearing this, the alchemists who had settled the accounts stopped and came back to watch the fun.

Zheng Qian opened the elixir bottles and inspected them one by one, and a strong medicinal fragrance spread out.

The old man from before sniffed the scent of the medicine: "Yes, it is the scent of a good elixir.

Being able to refine so many high-quality elixirs is truly a boy born from a hero. "

A person next to him said: "It's not that we can't refine high-quality elixirs, it's just that being distracted on one elixir will seriously affect the rate of elixir production, and the gains outweigh the losses.

The elixir hall can refine a large amount of high-quality elixirs without affecting the elixir production rate. Deputy Hall Master Zhao should be the only one, right? "

The old man nodded slightly: "Vice Hall Master Zhao's alchemy skills are extraordinary, even the sect leader admires them very much.

However, this boy is a wood attribute monk and can easily refine high-quality elixirs. He should have an advantage in tempering the essence of elixirs. "

"Vice Hall Master Zhao is a fire-attribute monk. A batch of elixirs can all be of good quality, and occasionally even the best.

It relies on the extremely powerful fire control technique, which is not the same as this one. "

Deputy Hall Master Zhao's name is Zhao Hong, with a mysterious origin and extremely extraordinary alchemy methods.

He was originally a guest minister of the Qingdan Sect, but later he was willing to stay in the Qingdan Sect, and then he became the deputy hall master.

It's just that he doesn't like dealing with trivial matters and rarely shows up.

Zheng Qian finished checking the elixir, with a smile on his face.

"There are six more high-quality Awakening Pills, and the price is one level higher than the average price. It should be thirty-three spiritual stones.

Yuan Chen, you are indeed a good candidate for alchemy. When you finish the task today, I will personally ask for credit for you. "

Liu Yuanchen said a few polite words, then left the underground fire room with the spirit stone and returned to his cave.

The old man hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Old Zheng, what is this little guy's background? Look at this posture, he has a bright future in the future!"

Zheng Qian smiled and said: "His name is Liu Yuanchen, a descendant of the Liu family in Dongyang.

He used to be a disciple of Shennong Hall and was bullied by the Chen family.

In desperation, he invited himself to Yujin Mountain to take care of the spiritual field, and he stayed there for four years.

I just returned to the sect half a month ago and joined our elixir hall. "

The old man cursed angrily: "Those little bastards from the Chen family are really nothing. They almost ruined a good idea."
