Chapter 251 Visitors Arrive
Three months later, Chen Yuan woke up from his meditation and slowly opened his eyes.
According to the experience gained from the memory of Master Qingyou, after a cultivator has formed a pill, it takes at least half a year to stabilize his realm before he can come out of retreat.
But he only practiced for three months, and his cultivation was stabilized. He could fight with others at will without worrying about his realm falling again.
After refining Zhu Yan's true blood, "Nine Transformations of the True Spirit" truly revealed the magnificence of the supreme technique. From then on, Chen Yuan truly entered the realm of cultivation and saw a glimmer of hope for immortality.
In his dantian, a golden pill was slowly turning, which was the golden pill.
As the saying goes, "Once a golden pill is swallowed, my life is determined by me, not by God." The golden pill is condensed from the essence of the true essence, and mixed with a little soul origin, which is the foundation of the cultivator's great way.
Even if he died unfortunately, the soul could attach to the golden pill, escape from the body, take over the body of others, and live a new life.
Below the golden elixir is a thousand-foot-sized sea of true essence.
The elixir field in the cultivator's body is not a physical object. Although it is placed on the elixir field, it is not in the same space as the five internal organs. It is infinitely small, infinitely vast, and mysterious.
The cultivators in Donghuazhou call it the elixir field, the cultivators in Yuqinghai call it the sea of qi, and the cultivators on the Jiuxianzhou continent call it the purple mansion.
But no matter how many names it has, the essence is the same.
After the cultivator forms the elixir, the lake of true essence expands to form a sea of true essence, which is ten times that before the elixir formation, and is extremely pure. Even the weakest elixir formation cultivator is definitely not a match for the foundation-building cultivator.
Of course, the descendants of the true spirit, such as the white ape, and the people who refine the true spirit essence and blood, such as Chen Yuan, are not included.
But even Chen Yuan must stimulate the true blood of Zhuyan to have a chance to defeat the elixir formation cultivator, otherwise he can only tie with the elixir formation cultivator at most. This is the crushing of cultivation.
In addition, the consciousness of Jindan cultivators is far superior to that of foundation-building cultivators.
Chen Yuan did not release his consciousness. He did not know how strong his consciousness was, but it would definitely be stronger than that of cultivators of the same level.
After practicing for nearly a hundred years, Chen Yuan felt a little happy when he got the golden elixir.
The next step is to refine the elixir, improve his cultivation, and nurture the two magic weapons, the Golden Dragon Sword and the Wind and Cloud Bell. The most important thing is to completely use Zhu Yan's true blood for himself.
This is his strongest magical power, which is more important than the two magic weapons.
In addition, the thousand-year ice silk gloves must also be upgraded to magic weapons. His body is now comparable to a sixth-level monster, and it is difficult to be injured by the best spiritual weapons, but it cannot resist magic weapons. The thousand-year ice silk gloves are indispensable, otherwise he will be restricted when fighting with others in close combat.
As a physical cultivation method, "True Spirit Nine Transformations" does not have the method of refining the natal magic weapon, so there is no need to consider this, which saves a lot of effort...
Chen Yuan thought about the next practice arrangement, stood up, and walked out of the practice room.
Eight sound transmission notes were hung in the reception room, emitting a faint spiritual light.
He raised his hand and took all the sound transmission notes into his hand. His spiritual consciousness spread out, and words of congratulations came into his ears.
These sound transmission notes were sent by other cultivators after he formed a pill. Most of them were nearby cultivators who congratulated him on his successful formation of a pill. Their tone was very intimate. There were also a few people who wanted to visit him and their words were sincere.
Chen Yuan read all the sound transmission notes one by one, and found that there was nothing urgent, so he ignored them and returned to the practice room to figure out the pill formula and prepare for alchemy.
After forming a pill, the originally rich spiritual energy in the cave became much thinner, and the speed of cultivation was as slow as a turtle.
Small spiritual veins can only support the minimum cultivation of cultivators who have formed a pill. If they want to improve their cultivation, they must take pills, or directly practice in medium-sized spiritual veins or even large spiritual veins.
Large and medium-sized spiritual veins are definitely not suitable for casual cultivators, and they can only rely on pills to improve their cultivation.
The five-hundred-year-old spiritual grass is different from the three-hundred-year-old spiritual grass. The three-hundred-year-old spiritual grass can mature in decades or even more than ten years under the nourishment of large spiritual veins, and there has always been a relatively sufficient supply in the market.
The five-hundred-year-old spiritual grass can be quickly matured to three hundred years, but the remaining two hundred years can only mature little by little, and it is extremely scarce even in the three major sects.
Only giant spiritual veins can quickly mature five-hundred-year-old spiritual grass, but there is no such spiritual vein in Yuqing Sea. Only the giant sects on Jiuxianzhou have such means.
This makes the price of five-hundred-year-old spiritual grass extremely expensive. A most common five-hundred-year-old spiritual grass can be sold for at least fifty medium-grade spiritual stones, and some rare spiritual grass can even be sold for hundreds of medium-grade spiritual stones.
At least four or five five-hundred-year-old spiritual grasses are needed to refine a furnace of elixir, and the success rate is often only 30% to 40%.
A bottle of early-stage elixir can sell for twenty or thirty high-grade spiritual stones. Most elixir cultivators only take one or two elixirs a year, and can only bury their heads in hard practice the rest of the time.
The thirty-two five-hundred-year-old spiritual herbs in Chen Yuan's hand were extremely precious. He did not dare to be careless and studied the recipe carefully.
Of the three recipes in his hand, Youyun Dan was the most difficult to refine, so he put it aside for the time being. Fu Cen Dan and Ling Hai Dan were equally difficult, so Chen Yuan chose to start with Fu Cen Dan.
He studied for a long time before he started to refine the pills, and was extremely cautious, but the first batch of Fu Cen Dan still failed.
Chen Yuan only had two batches of Fu Cen Dan spiritual herbs in his hand. After the first refining failed, he reviewed it for five days before starting the second refining.
The second refining finally lasted to the end, but failed at the step of condensing the pill.
Chen Yuan retracted his consciousness, sighed, and his face was very ugly.
It is too difficult to refine pills in the Jindan stage. Although Chen Yuan had a 70% success rate when refining pills in the late stage of foundation building before, he still had to start from failure.
However, these two failures allowed him to accumulate sufficient experience. When he refined the Fu Cen Dan for the third time, Chen Yuan finally succeeded and refined two pills.
Chen Yuan looked at the two Fu Cen Dan hanging on his palm, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
From today on, he is a master of alchemy.
The 20% success rate seems very low, but this is the first batch of Jindan stage pills he has refined, which is already very good.
Many alchemy masters have only a 10% success rate for their first batch of early stage pills, and they are even ecstatic about it.
Alchemy is different from refining instruments and making talismans. Even the strongest instrument refiners and talisman makers have failures.
But the failure of alchemy is reflected in the condensation of pills. As long as the alchemist refines the first batch of pills, no matter how low the success rate is, he will not fail when refining pills of the same level in the future.
Chen Yuan spent two months refining the elixir three times, plus the previous month of studying the elixir formula, three months had passed since he stabilized his realm.
He stood up and walked out of the practice room, and replied to the addresses of the caves left in the sound transmission talisman one by one, and did not refuse any of the cultivators who wanted to visit him.
Hanxing City is the most suitable place for Yuqinghai to practice. Chen Yuan plans to stay here for a long time in the future, and he will inevitably deal with other Jindan cultivators.
However, he has consolidated his cultivation in three months. If he replies immediately, the matter will be exposed, so he has been dragging it on until now.
In less than half an hour, Chen Yuan received two sound transmission talismans and agreed on the time for the visit.
But the others did not reply, perhaps they were practicing in seclusion, or they might have left Wentian Island.
An hour later, a beam of light fell in front of Chen Yuan's cave, and Chen Yuan opened the door to welcome him and ushered the visitor into the cave.
This is a middle-aged beautiful woman, wearing a light blue dress, with a graceful figure, and a pair of eyes that seem to contain all kinds of charm, but not at all vulgar.
She bowed and smiled, "My name is Su Jin, and I am honored to be the elder of the Righteous Alliance. I am here to greet you, fellow Taoist."
