The first volume debuts Chapter 57: Refining the Foundation-Upgrading Pill!
"Xuanfeng, I heard that you became the quasi-elder of the Alchemy Pavilion . Why don't we go to the Alchemy Pavilion now? Senior sister wants to see your alchemy skills with her own eyes." After finishing the dishes, Shen Luoyan suggested with a barely perceptible fighting spirit in her eyes.
In fact, watching Li Xuanfeng making the elixir was not the main purpose, but she had heard before that there was a female disciple in the Alchemy Pavilion who was specifically responsible for receiving Li Xuanfeng, and she had long wanted to go and see it!
When Li Xuanfeng came out of seclusion, he planned to go to the Alchemy Pavilion to refine pills with the free herbs, because he now didn't even have the spirit stones to buy the herbs, and he still owed the Trading Pavilion thousands of spirit stones. He planned to go to the Alchemy Pavilion to refine some pills and sell them in exchange for some spirit stones.
The two of them soon arrived at the Alchemy Pavilion. Because Li Xuanfeng's status was raised too quickly, the disciples who received him felt a little unnatural inside, but still respectfully addressed Li Xuanfeng as elder.
Not long after Li Xuanfeng brought Shen Luoyan into an alchemy room, Ouyang Shan arrived immediately, apparently having received the message from the reception disciple.
She instructed the reception disciple to notify Li Xuanfeng immediately if he showed up. She wanted to watch Li Xuanfeng making the elixir and learn his alchemy skills.
Although her grandfather was a master of alchemy, his level of alchemy was much higher than hers, so it was difficult for her to learn the alchemy skills when watching her grandfather making the alchemy. Since the last time, she found that watching Li Xuanfeng, who was not much better than her, making the alchemy, had greatly improved her alchemy skills.
However, Li Xuanfeng had not appeared for three months since his last time refining the elixir. After asking around, she found out that Li Xuanfeng had gone into seclusion to break through the spiritual foundation realm. She had been waiting for Li Xuanfeng to come and refine the elixir again, and asked the disciple who received him to notify her immediately when Li Xuanfeng appeared.
"Congratulations to Elder Li for successfully breaking through the Spiritual Foundation Realm. I'm sure your alchemy skills have also improved a lot." As soon as Ouyang Shan came in, she felt Li Xuanfeng's cultivation level in the early Spiritual Foundation Realm and congratulated him.
"Sister Ouyang, I wonder if the herbs that have not been used in the past three months will be preserved?" Li Xuanfeng asked tentatively, clasping his fists and bowing. He was worried that if he hadn't come for three months, the herbs provided by the Pill Pavilion would become obsolete, which would be a waste of a lot of resources.
"Of course, we practitioners will all be in seclusion, and it is impossible for us to have time to come here to refine pills every month." Ouyang Shan explained with a smile.
Li Xuanfeng found it a bit strange that Ouyang Shan's attitude towards him seemed to be much better this time. When Shen Luoyan saw the smile on Ouyang Shan's face, a strong fighting spirit flashed in his eyes.
"I didn't expect that the sect master's daughter, Junior Sister Shen, would also visit my medicine pavilion. I have heard of you for a long time." As soon as Ouyang Shan came in, she noticed Shen Luoyan next to Li Xuanfeng, and she saluted to Shen Luoyan.
"Senior Sister Ouyang, you are too polite. I am just accompanying my junior brother to make the elixir." Shen Luoyan returned the greeting, but he emphasized the word "junior brother" a little bit, as if he was a little angry.
Although Li Xuanfeng felt a little strange, he didn't think much about it. Ouyang Shan looked at Shen Luoyan strangely, as if wondering why Shen Luoyan was angry.
Li Xuanfeng gave Ouyang Shan a list of herbs, which included herbs for refining Spirit Foundation Pills and Body Strengthening Spirit Liquids, and many of which were top-grade herbs for the Spirit Foundation Realm. This time, he was going to try to refine top-grade pills for the Spirit Foundation Realm.
After an incense stick of time, Ouyang Shan gathered all the herbs, and the herbs she brought were enough to fill two storage bags. You should know that the space in the storage bag is ten feet large, which can hold a large amount of herbs. Originally, Li Xuanfeng did not have this amount of herbs in three months. After the last refining, seeing Li Xuanfeng's success rate, Ouyang Danqing doubled the amount he could use.
The failure rate of other elders in refining pills was quite high. After the results of refining were split in half, the Pill Pavilion basically suffered losses. The cost of materials was due to luck, so the usage amount was stipulated. However, Li Xuanfeng's refining could make the Pill Pavilion earn a lot, so they increased the usage amount for him without hesitation.
At this time, the amount of herbs Li Xuanfeng used in the Alchemy Pavilion every month was exactly the same as that of a real elder.
Ouyang Shan took the herbs and was about to hand them to Li Xuanfeng, but Shen Luoyan quickly took them.
"Thank you, Senior Sister Ouyang. I dare not waste your time. You can go and do your thing. I will accompany my junior brother to refine the elixir alone. If you need anything, we will find a reception disciple. Also, when my junior brother comes to refine the elixir in the future, you will not have to personally receive him. It will be enough to have a reception disciple. Junior brother, don't you agree?" Shen Luoyan said with a smile, as if she was considering Ouyang Shan and did not want to waste her time.
"Yes, Senior Sister Ouyang, you should go and do your own thing. It would be my fault if I delayed your time." Li Xuanfeng did not think much about it and continued to speak. Thinking of the last time he had troubled Senior Sister Ouyang with alchemy, he felt a little guilty. No wonder she was a little angry last time.
Li Xuanfeng didn't think much about it, but Ouyang Shan could strongly sense the hostility in Shen Luoyan's words, but her purpose was to watch Li Xuanfeng refine the elixir. And judging from the superior spiritual herbs selected by Li Xuanfeng, he was going to refine the elixir that he had been making slow progress on recently, which was rare learning opportunity.
"It's okay. It's my honor to receive Elder Li. Besides, I have nothing to do right now. It's a good opportunity for me to learn Elder Li's alchemy skills." Ouyang Shan said with a smile, with no intention of leaving.
Shen Luoyan's face was puffed up, but she had to give up temporarily after hearing that. It was impossible to force Ouyang Shan to leave the Medicine Pavilion where she was, and there was no suitable reason.
Li Xuanfeng noticed Shen Luoyan's anger at this time, and his mind was racing. Could it be that she didn't like Ouyang Shan? But it seemed like this was the first time they met, and he didn't seem to have made her angry this time.
Alas, if I can’t figure it out, I’ll just forget about it for now. Refining the elixir is more important.
After thinking about it, Li Xuanfeng could not find the reason, so he had to put it aside temporarily and start refining the pill.
After breaking through the Spiritual Foundation Realm, Li Xuanfeng used his spiritual power to condense flames that were several times greater than the last time he refined pills, and his refining speed and success rate increased a lot. He only took half a day to refine 200 perfect Spiritual Foundation Pills and four bottles of Body Forging Spiritual Liquid, which stunned Ouyang Shan. She felt strongly that her alchemy skills were being left behind by Li Xuanfeng.
After refining the Spiritual Foundation Pill and the Body-Forging Spiritual Liquid, Li Xuanfeng began to prepare to refine a superior Spiritual Foundation Realm Pill.
This kind of elixir, called Shengji Dan, is an extremely important elixir for practitioners in the Spiritual Foundation Realm.
After taking a foundation-raising pill, there is a great chance that you can improve your spiritual foundation realm by one level, from the early spiritual foundation stage to the middle spiritual foundation stage, from the middle spiritual foundation stage to the late spiritual foundation stage, and even from the late spiritual foundation stage to the great perfection stage, which can greatly save your cultivation time.
However, a person can only take one Shengji Pill. Taking it again will have no effect and can only restore spiritual power. This makes practitioners have extremely high requirements for the quality of Shengji Pills. Because the higher the quality, the stronger the spiritual power in the pill, which indirectly represents the chance of breaking through the cultivation level. If it fails, the only chance to use Shengji Pills to improve cultivation level will be lost.
Therefore, only a few disciples in the early stage of spiritual foundation would swallow the inferior quality foundation-enhancing pills. Even disciples in the early stage of spiritual foundation with higher requirements would not swallow them, because it is too easy to waste a rare opportunity to improve their cultivation.
Li Xuanfeng had already carefully read the recipe of the Shengji Pill in the Zimie Space and memorized it in his heart. Now he just needed to practice refining and verify it.
The Shengji Pill is not a simple pill, but a top-level pill in the Spiritual Foundation Realm. Many alchemists in the Spiritual Foundation Realm find it difficult to refine it.
Ouyang Shan, whose cultivation has reached the peak of the middle stage of the spiritual foundation, has been trying to refine it for a month, but when she performs at her best, she can only refine low-quality foundation-raising pills, and the success rate is extremely low, and most of the time she fails directly . In order to improve her level of refining foundation-raising pills, she is concentrating on watching Li Xuanfeng refine it, fearing that she will miss even a detail.
Shen Luoyan next to him was not an alchemist and did not pay attention to Li Xuanfeng refining the elixir. Instead, he noticed that Ouyang Shan was staring at her junior brother intently, with anger already starting to grow in her eyes!
Li Xuanfeng paid no attention to the two women and was completely focused on how to refine the Foundation Enhancement Pill.
Li Xuanfeng took out the herbs and used condensed flames to quickly remove the impurities. This process was not too difficult for him, although the difficulty of removing impurities from the herbs used in refining this time was much higher than that of the previous herbs.
After spending a little more time to successfully remove the impurities, Li Xuanfeng put the herbs into the purple gold furnace and began to refine them by using his spiritual power and flames at his full strength.
However, half an incense stick later, with a muffled bang, the essence of the herbs in the furnace exploded. Fortunately, the purple gold furnace was very sturdy and the furnace itself was not affected at all.
