Beast Mastery

After flying for a day, Zhang Nuo arrived at a small city in the country of Daliang. This city is called An City. Although the city is not big, it is full of everything.

The reason why Zhang Nuo found this remote town was to avoid the mixed monks in the big city. He walked into An City and saw that the flow of people was not bad, but a small town is a small town and there is no way to compare with the flow of people in a big city.

.

Occasionally, Zhang Nuo could see a few monks, but their cultivation levels were not very high. They were all in the foundation building stage. After walking around the city, Zhang Nuo finally selected a workshop named "One Furnace".

This name is very special, and I believe the monks inside will also be special. When Zhang Nuo walked into the workshop, he saw a little Taoist lazily sitting in front of the counter, dozing off. It seems that this workshop

His business is not good, otherwise he would not be so leisurely.

This little Taoist priest looks to be fifteen or sixteen years old, and his features can be considered pretty.

"Bah bang bang!"

Zhang Nuo patted the counter three times softly, and the little Taoist woke up immediately, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and when he saw Zhang Nuo, he hurried over to say hello:

"Senior, what do you want to buy?"

"I don't want to buy anything, I just want to ask, can your workshop handle the alchemy business?"

As soon as he heard that Zhang Nuo said he wouldn't buy it, the little Taoist priest felt disappointed on his face. Then he heard the other party said that he was looking for someone to make elixirs, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He raised his chest slightly and said:

"Senior, if you want to make alchemy, you have found the right place. Our workshop is named after my master. My master's nickname is: One Furnace! Do you know why?"

When he first heard the name, Zhang Nuo almost laughed, Yilu Taoist Priest! This is too weird. He shook his head lightly, but Zhang Nuo didn't know what he meant.

"My master is because no matter what kind of elixir he refines, as long as he dares to take it, it will be done in one go! He will never waste your materials!"

Zhang Nuo's eyes also lit up. He didn't expect there to be such a master in such a small town!

"Oh, is your master here? Can I see him now?"

"Of course, senior, please wait a moment!"

The little Taoist priest hurriedly ran to the backyard. As time passed, a Taoist priest wearing a yellow robe came out. This Taoist priest was in his fifties, with a high bun on his head, but his cultivation was in the middle stage of foundation building.

about.

"Does this fellow Taoist want to make elixirs?"

The old Taoist just glanced at Zhang Nuo and saw that his appearance was young, but his cultivation level was at the same level as his own, so he didn't dare to neglect him at the moment!

"Exactly!"

As Zhang Nuo spoke, he took out a piece of paper and several medicinal materials prepared in advance and handed them to the old Taoist.

Taoist priest Yilu just glanced at it and then said:

"Get it in two days! Five hundred low-grade spiritual stones!"

Zhang Nuo was really surprised when the other party told him the time and cost as soon as they met each other. It seemed that his reputation as an expert was not in vain.

He was not polite at the moment, threw down five hundred low-grade spirit stones, turned around and left the room! Looking at Zhang Nuo's walking back, Yilu Dao couldn't help but wonder, for the price of five hundred spirit stones, he was

He deliberately asked for it from Gao, but this young man didn't bargain at all, as if he was worthy of the spiritual stone.

"Pindao likes this the most! The disciple is optimistic about the shop and is going to make elixirs for his master!"

He said cheerfully to the little Taoist priest, grabbed the prescriptions and materials on the counter, and walked straight to the inner courtyard.

Zhang Nuo left the workshop, found a place to live, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to meditate. Two days later, when Zhang Nuo appeared in the Yilu workshop again, two full bottles of 'Peiyuan Dan' had been put in

in front of him.

Gently opening the cork of the bottle, Zhang Nuo poured out two pills. Judging from the color and taste, he knew that this was a bottle of high-quality 'Peiyuan Pill'!

"Fellow Taoist, you are quite satisfied!"

Zhang Nuo nodded, put away the elixir and smiled at Taoist Master Yilu.

"That's right! It's indeed worth the refining value of five hundred spirit stones! I wonder if I would dare to accept the elixir in my hand?"

"Oh! Bring me the prescription and take a look at it!"

Seeing Zhang Nuo's mysterious look, the old Taoist guessed that this prescription was not ordinary. When he took the prescription from Zhang Nuo, the old Taoist only glanced at it and suddenly took a breath of cold air!

I saw that several medicinal materials on the prescription were extremely precious. Even if I were willing to spend 1.8 million spiritual stones, I might not be able to buy them! I looked up at Zhang Nuo, and it didn’t look like he was a disciple of a big force. How could he?

How could there be so many spiritual stones?

"Is Taoist Master optimistic?"

Worried that the veteran would become suspicious, Zhang Nuo urged.

"I don't dare accept this! The materials you use are too valuable. If I miss it, I can't afford to pay for it!"

Pushing the prescription on the cabinet slightly, he handed it back to Zhang Nuo. The old man shook his head and said:

"Why don't fellow Taoists go to the big city and find some experienced alchemists to refine this medicine? Maybe the chance of success will be greater!"

"I trust the Taoist priest, please give me a price!"

Seeing the other party's refusal, Zhang Nuo thought for a moment and then spoke.

"This is not a problem with the spirit stone, it's mainly me..."

"Two thousand low-grade spiritual stones!"

Before the Taoist finished speaking, Zhang Nuo suddenly said the sky-high price. When the little Taoist next to him heard this, he almost bit his tongue and looked at the master eagerly! The Yilu Taoist was also shocked by Zhang Nuo's generosity.

He was stunned, but he understood that these two thousand spirit stones were not easy to get!

"Fellow Taoist, I think you have misunderstood..."

"Five thousand low-grade spiritual stones!"

The old Taoist still wanted to explain, but Zhang Nuo spoke for the second time. This time, not to mention the little Taoist priest, even the old Taoist Yilu's own jaw almost fell to the ground!

Five thousand low-grade spiritual stones, which is almost half the income of his small workshop! With a slight expression on his face, the old man picked up the prescription that had been sent back. After looking at it carefully for a moment, he said slowly:

"How many ingredients do you have for the elixir in your hands, fellow Taoist?"

"Two servings!"

Seeing that Yilu Dao had finally reconsidered under the temptation of the spirit stone, Zhang Nuo smiled lightly.

"If this is the case, Pindao can guarantee that at least one can be completed! If both are completed, Pindao is not sure. No matter how many spiritual stones my fellow Taoists provide, it will be useless!"

"In that case! Just one can guarantee success!"

Zhang Nuo sighed and said helplessly.

"Let's go to the alchemy room in the backyard now, apprentice! Help me get rid of all the affairs. I want to concentrate on refining alchemy!"

The old Taoist Yilu gave some instructions to his disciples and took Zhang Nuo to the backyard of the workshop. He saw that the place was not very spacious, with only a dozen rooms. There was a faint scent of medicine coming from one of the rooms, which should be the old Taoist's elixir.

Room is available.

"Fellow Taoist, please give me all the materials! Since alchemy is a delicate job, I won't invite you to watch my elixir!"

"clear!"

Zhang Nuo didn't force it. He took off a storage bag from his waist and threw it to Lao Dao. After reaching out to catch it, Lao Dao opened the mouth of the bag and glanced inside. Sure enough, it was the same as what was prescribed on the prescription.

He turned around and entered the alchemy room.

Seeing the old Taoist go in, Zhang Nuo did not leave. He sat on the stone bench in the yard and observed what was going on in the alchemy room! The materials for refining the 'Nine Transformations to Heaven Pill' were extremely valuable, and Zhang Nuo did not dare to do it easily.

Leave, what if the old Taoist runs away with the materials? You must be on guard against others! So he sat here and watched.

It was not long before a strong heat came from the old man's alchemy room. It seemed that the other party was starting to warm the furnace. After the time when there was a stick of incense, there was only a soft sound, as if the alchemy furnace was turned on.

In this way, Zhang Nuo sat outside, listening to the movements in the alchemy room, and deducing which step the other party had taken. In the blink of an eye, a day passed, and the scorching high temperature kept coming from the alchemy room, and sometimes the sound of the alchemy furnace could be heard.

Buzz!

The second day! The third day! I waited until the fifth day, but Yilu Laodao still didn't come out. Now Zhang Nuo was a little anxious, so he got up and walked around the yard.

The 'Nine Transformations to Return to Heaven Pill' is too important to him! There is no room for error. Listening to the movement in the elixir room, Zhang Nuo's heart beat like a bang!

The seventh day passed in the blink of an eye, and Zhang Nuo really had the urge to rush into the elixir room! What the hell was an old man doing? According to Chunyangzi, it only takes three days to refine a 'Nine-turn Return to Heaven Pill'

One day is enough time, but now it takes a full seven days!

Could it be that the elixir was destroyed by him? Zhang Nuo didn't dare to think about it anymore and kept praying in his heart!

On the eighth day, the high temperature in the alchemy room finally dropped a little. Zhang Nuo was immediately overjoyed. It seemed that the old man was about to come out.

After waiting for nearly an hour, under Zhang Nuo's expectant eyes, the old Taoist's alchemy room finally opened. All he saw was a Taoist master. His clothes were somewhat tattered and his hair was unkempt. In just eight days, he looked as if he had passed away.

It lasted eight years.

"Taoist Priest, was it successful?"

After walking a few steps and arriving in front of the old Taoist, Zhang Nuo asked excitedly.

The old Taoist smiled first, then slowly opened his palms, and saw two snow-white pills appearing in his hands. Zhang Nuo almost jumped up with joy when he saw the pills, and stretched out his hand to grab both pills.

Came over.

He took out one of the pills and looked at it carefully. He saw that there were nine ripples on the surface of the 'Nine Turns of Return to Heaven Pill', and each one was deeper than the last. These ripples existed inside the pill and could not be removed by hand.

Zhang Nuo tried it and it was indeed the case.

Put it under your nose and smell it gently, and the refreshing fragrance of the medicine immediately spreads throughout your body, and even the sweat pores on your body bloom. The comfortable feeling is simply beyond description in words.

From these two points, Zhang Nuo can be sure that a master has successfully refined both elixirs! It’s just that the quality of the first one is inferior to the second one. But this is no longer important, although the efficacy of the medicine may be almost the same.

, but it is much better than destroying it directly!

"The Taoist Master is indeed a master! Both pills are ready!"

After putting away the 'Nine Transformations and Returning to Heaven Pill', Zhang Nuo hugged his fists at the old master!

"Fellow Taoist, thank you very much. But there is one thing I don't understand, and I would like to ask you for advice!"

Seeing Zhang Nuo's happy expression, the old Taoist also knew that he had obtained these five thousand spirit stones, but some questions that arose during the alchemy still puzzled him, so he asked questions.

Zhang Nuo was stunned, and the happy look on his face faded a bit. He didn't know what questions this veteran wanted to ask?
