Volume 4: Transformation into Mystery Chapter 562: Transformation
After seeing the number of pills that needed to be refined this time, Li Xuanfeng added two more furnaces for refining pills, and increased the refining speed, but it still took a full day and night to complete.
During this refining process, Li Xuanfeng encountered two furnace explosion failures. Only then did the many alchemists who were watching feel that things were a little more normal.
If he could refine so many pills and all of them succeed without any surprises, then Li Xuanfeng could not be called an alchemist at all, but a ruthless alchemy machine, as if he could produce pills infinitely.
After the refining was completed, when leaving the Medicine Pavilion, Li Xuanfeng shook his head and smiled, and asked Zhou Tian to set the latest refining rules: the person who commissioned the project needed to prepare five sets of refining materials!
When the news of Li Xuanfeng's refining rules spread, a large number of elders of Xuanling Sect sighed to the sky. Although they knew that the purpose of Grand Elder Li Xuanfeng was to reduce their own troubles, they still couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
It is acceptable to refine three materials, but refining five materials is already too expensive and is not something that ordinary people can afford.
Li Xuanfeng's rule instantly dispelled the idea of the Spirit Infant Realm elders asking Li Xuanfeng to refine pills, but the idea of the Spirit God Realm elders had not completely dissipated.
If it is to refine a high-level Spirit God Realm elixir, or an extremely difficult Spirit God Realm elixir, they would prefer to let Li Xuanfeng refine it.
The difficulty of refining elixirs in the Spirit God Realm is much greater than that in the Spirit Infant Realm, and even if you prepare two sets of refining materials and find other alchemists, there is no guarantee that you can succeed, and the quality of the elixir will not be very high.
Although it takes five sets of refining materials to ask Li Xuanfeng to refine the elixir, it is still worth it to get a top-grade elixir of the Spirit God Realm.
Li Xuanfeng ignored the thoughts of the many elders and disciples of Xuanling Sect, as if it had nothing to do with him, and let them develop as they pleased.
Li Xuanfeng had his own considerations. If he did not increase the price of commissioned refining, he was afraid that all the commissions for refining elixirs of the Spirit Infant Realm and the Spirit God Realm would be snatched away by him, leaving other alchemists in the sect with no commissions to accept.
This was completely contrary to his original wish. He hoped that the Xuanling Sect's alchemy skills would continue to improve.
Li Xuanfeng's change of rules really reduced the number of elders who entrusted him with refining pills to a great extent. Only two or three elders who were already in the middle and late stages of the Spirit God Realm entrusted him with refining pills again.
As the number of people who commissioned him to refine pills decreased, Li Xuanfeng's life became much quieter, and he might only refine a pill once every two months.
Half a year later, as several alchemists including Zhou Tian learned the recipe given by Li Xuanfeng and their alchemy skills improved a lot, there were almost no elders in the Spirit God Realm who would entrust Li Xuanfeng with making pills. Li Xuanfeng completely declined the commission and no longer made pills for others.
Li Xuanfeng gave all the resources earned through refining during this period to his two senior brothers and Jiang Liu. Their cultivation had not yet reached the perfection of the Spirit God Realm, so they could not use these resources.
The reason why Li Xuanfeng stopped refining pills was that he wanted to devote all his energy to comprehension.
Because in these few months, he gained nothing!
Although Li Xuanfeng had seen others use the power of artistic conception and even experienced it himself, it seemed that he only knew a general idea and could not comprehend the true mystery of the power of artistic conception at all.
He could never comprehend what the power of artistic conception was specifically. It was like being in front of a treasure but unable to find the entrance to it.
After no longer having to refine pills, Li Xuanfeng would not even actively circulate his spiritual power. He just let the spiritual power flow through his body and lived like an ordinary person in the world.
Shen Luoyan, who was accompanying Li Xuanfeng, had no idea what the power of artistic conception was, and she didn't even think about it deeply. She felt that as long as she was with Li Xuanfeng, nothing else mattered.
When Shen Hua saw the looks of the two, he shook his head and smiled slightly. He had already experienced Li Xuanfeng's mood and had even gotten used to it.
After he entered the Spirit God Realm and achieved perfection, he also looked for a way to break through to the second realm like Li Xuanfeng, but he found nothing for decades.
Now that he has completely seen through it, he knows that the power of artistic conception can only be encountered by chance, and he can only let it go.
Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
At this time, there was a gleam in Li Xuanfeng's eyes, and his expression was no longer anxious, but became quite calm.
He has figured out that there is no way to rush to comprehend the power of artistic conception, and he can only slowly gain experience through it.
Although he had no understanding of the power of artistic conception, the spiritual energy on Li Xuanfeng's body had now completely disappeared. If he did not use the power of cultivation, he would be no different from an ordinary mortal .
If there is any difference, it is that Li Xuanfeng seems to have an indescribable temperament.
Li Xuanfeng also taught Shen Luoyan the method of restraining her aura, and now the spiritual energy in her body has almost disappeared.
On this day, Li Xuanfeng smiled slightly, turned to Shen Luoyan beside him and said softly: "Senior Sister, let's go live in the human world."
Hearing Li Xuanfeng's words, Shen Luoyan was slightly stunned, but immediately smiled and nodded without any hesitation.
In this life, wherever he goes, she will follow.
Seeing that Shen Luoyan agreed, Li Xuanfeng smiled even more. He stood up, took her little hand and flew towards Shen Hua's residence.
After meeting Shen Hua and Han Yue, Li Xuanfeng directly expressed his thoughts: "Master, I am going to take my sister to live in the human world and find my own artistic conception."
Hearing Li Xuanfeng's words, Shen Hua smiled slightly: "Transformed into a mortal?"
Li Xuanfeng nodded slightly. He was preparing to use the method that Lin Qiu, the supreme elder of the Taoist Sect, had used before to find his own artistic conception in the human world.
After hearing Li Xuanfeng's decision, Shen Hua and Han Yue felt a little reluctant, but they smiled and nodded in agreement.
Shen Hua was extremely looking forward to the day when Li Xuanfeng would be able to find his own artistic conception and successfully enter the second realm.
Although Li Xuanfeng is the youngest among his disciples, he is the one with the highest achievements. Shen Hua believes that Li Xuanfeng will be able to go further and even reach the pinnacle of the cultivation world!
And now that Li Xuanfeng is looking for his own breakthrough opportunity, they have no reason to stop him.
After leaving Shen Hua's residence, Li Xuanfeng took Shen Luoyan to bid farewell to his three senior brothers and Jiang Liu, and explained his ideas to them.
Jiang Liu originally wanted to follow Li Xuanfeng, but was declined by him.
According to Li Xuanfeng, Jiang Liu's current cultivation is still at the Spirit Infant Realm, which is not suitable for transformation into a mortal. Not only will this be ineffective, it will also cause his cultivation to stagnate.
After hearing Li Xuanfeng's words, Jiang Liu had no choice but to give up this idea and follow his arrangements to stay in Xuanling Sect and practice with peace of mind.
The next day, Li Xuanfeng took Shen Luoyan and left Xuanling Sect quietly.
With Li Xuanfeng's current cultivation level, if he didn't want others to know, even Shen Hua and Zheng Cheng would find it difficult to detect it with the help of the sect's formation, not to mention the elders and disciples of Xuanling Sect.
Li Xuanfeng did not take away the formation in the residence, but let it continue to operate, as if he and Shen Luoyan were still living in it.
Except for Shen Hua and Jiang Liu, the elders and disciples of Xuanling Sect had no idea that the Grand Elder Li Xuanfeng had already left the sect.
On this day, in a small town in the west of the Spiritual Continent, a young couple walked in.
This city is named Qingshan City because there is a huge green mountain behind the city.
This couple is Li Xuanfeng and Shen Luoyan.
After entering Qingshan City, Li Xuanfeng took Shen Luoyan's hand and walked slowly in the city, observing the lively scene in the city, just like two tourists from other places.
At noon, Li Xuanfeng took Shen Luoyan into an inn, ordered some side dishes, and the two began to eat lunch.
It was lunch time and there were a large number of guests in the inn, almost all the seats were occupied.
During the meal, guests at many tables were discussing recent strange news.
"Have you heard? In ten days, an immortal will be giving a sermon and praying at the City Lord's Mansion. If you want a spot, you better hurry up!"
At this time, a middle-aged man put down his chopsticks and preached with a beaming expression, his tone full of pride and expectation.
"I have already bought a place from the city lord. If I am chosen by the immortal and accepted as his disciple, I will rise to prominence and live forever!"
A young man at the same table sneered after hearing this and said sarcastically: "Do you think it is so easy for an immortal to accept a disciple? And how old are you? Will an immortal take a fancy to you? You are just wasting your money."
Hearing the young man's words, the middle-aged man's face suddenly turned quite ugly, and he also sneered: "You are just saying the grapes are sour because you can't eat them. Even if I can't get the immortal to accept me as a disciple, it would be great if he could give me an elixir to make me live a hundred years longer."
Hearing his words, the young man sneered again, but did not speak any more. It was unknown whether it was because he was worried that the middle-aged man would really be favored by the immortal, or because he was too lazy to argue with him anymore.
Of course, except for the young man who didn't get along with the middle-aged man, the others at the table were extremely flattering to the middle-aged man.
"Brother Shi, we really envy you. If you become an immortal, don't forget us brothers."
After hearing this, the middle-aged man named Shi smiled and said, "Okay, okay."
The guests at other nearby tables heard their conversation, and many of them cast envious glances at the middle-aged man.
Regardless of whether he can be favored by the immortal, the fact that he was able to buy a place is enough to show that he is either very wealthy or has a high social status.
If you want to get close to the immortals, you need to pay a huge price.
Hearing their conversation, Li Xuanfeng and Shen Luoyan smiled at each other and continued to eat in silence.
The immortals mentioned in these people's conversation are probably just cultivators in the Lingrong Realm or Lingji Realm who are cheating and deceiving mortals because they are greedy for the wealth and fame in the world.
At this time, the guests at another table had also finished their meal and started chatting.
"I heard that the doctor of the Chen Family Clinic in the south of the city has fled. The relatives and friends of the patients who were killed can only look for the owner of the clinic. He is in a lot of trouble."
"Yes, the doctor in this clinic has treated the patient wrongly twice, and the relatives and friends of the patients are still furious."
Hearing their conversation, Li Xuanfeng's eyes flashed slightly. Just now he was still considering how to transform into a mortal in the human world and what identity to live with.
Now it seems like there is an idea!
