Drunk Immortal Gourd

Even though Qingyang has Ziyun Tongxiaoding as his backing, even if he is sure to refine the demon barrier elixir of the rampaging demon king, he will not take over everything. This is a matter for three people. Lu Yuan and Xia Meng are not How about contributing? Want to take advantage of yourself? Not that easy!

Qingyang glanced at the two of them and said expressionlessly: "You two are a bit too modest. Who doesn't know that you are the most promising foundation-building alchemist on Lanyu Island to become the Alchemy King? Otherwise, Rampant Demon King will make a special trip Send someone to invite you? The task is shared by everyone, so there is no priority. The three of us are like grasshoppers on the same rope. Once the alchemy fails, no one can escape, so we still invite two more people to do it. Please be careful in order to avoid ending up with nothing.”

Seeing that Qingyang had seen through their little thoughts, Xia Meng had no choice but to say: "Fellow Taoist Qingyang is joking, how dare we not care? We are really not as skilled as others, let's do this, the master trainer is still Taoist Qingyang, the two of us Try to cooperate as much as possible. If you need anything, just arrange it. No complaints. ”

Lu Yuan also said: "Yes, fellow Taoist Qingyang, it's not that we shirk our responsibilities, but your alchemy skills are indeed much better than ours, so this matter still has to be done by you. Of course, we won't just do it." You don’t do things for a reward. No matter whether you succeed or fail, everyone shares the responsibility. As for how to make the elixir specifically, you are still in charge. The two of us are always at your command. As long as you give orders, we have people who are capable and will help, and we will never embarrass you. ”

Qingyang also knew that the alchemy skills of these two people were indeed limited, and it was definitely not appropriate to place hope on these two people. Whether or not they could complete the task depended on themselves. When the two of them had talked to this point, Qingyang could only say: "In that case, I won't be polite. Make three copies of this elixir recipe and take it back to study. We will gather every ten days to summarize all the refining experience and insights gained from these days. After a month You help me formally refine the elixir."

This requirement is very simple. Since three people are refining alchemy together, necessary cooperation and communication are definitely required. Lu Yuan and Xia Meng quickly said: "Okay, no problem."

Qingyang added: "I can't make the elixir alone, you two also need to help. Fellow Daoist Lu's Cloud Pattern Ruyi Cauldron and Fellow Daoist Xia's Geocentric Furnace must be handed over to me in advance for me to familiarize myself with and practice. , to avoid errors due to improper operation during alchemy.”

Lu Yuan and Xia Meng were both a little worried about handing over the spiritual weapon on which they were famous to others. Their entire wealth was on it. If something went wrong, they wouldn't have to live with it for the rest of their lives. After listening to Qingyang Both of them couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed by the request.

Seeing the reluctance of the two of them, Qingyang couldn't help but sneered and said: "What? Two fellow Taoists can't bear to part with you? The refining of the Demonic Barrier Pill is a common task for the three of us, and you don't trust me so much before it even begins. , I think we might as well just break up."

At this time, Xia Meng and Lu Yuan have figured out that alchemy refining is the most important task at present. The Cloud Pattern Ruyi Cauldron and the Geocentric Furnace can increase the success rate of elixirs, so they must not be abandoned, so it is also good for Qingyang to familiarize themselves with them in advance. It should. What's more, Qingyang just borrowed it for a use, and it's not like he won't return it. There is no loss to them, and there is Xie Jiang guarding outside. If Qingyang really dares to take something and run away, without telling them, he will go on a rampage first. The Demon King will not let him go.

Xia Meng smiled and said, "How is that possible? Now that we are all in the same boat, we should naturally work together. If Qingyang wants to use the Earth's Core Furnace, just take it."

Lu Yuanze gritted his teeth and said, "Fellow Qingyang Daoist, I don't know. I have spent all my money on this cloud-patterned Ruyi Cauldron, and I still owe a lot of foreign debts. I am a mid-stage foundation-building monk with a quasi-golden elixir." Master, I don’t even have a middle-grade protective spiritual weapon on my body. No one would believe it, but in order to refine the Demonic Barrier Pill, I’ll lend it to you for a month.”

This cloud-patterned Ruyi Cauldron was discovered by Lu Yuan when he and a group of friends went out for training. Although this spiritual weapon was of a high level, it had a relatively single function and was only suitable for use by alchemists, so other people did not compete with him. However, if the treasure was given to Lu Yuan, he would give it to others at a discounted price. And because the Cloud Pattern Ruyi Cauldron was of high level and valuable, Lu Yuan gave all his wealth to his friends and it was not enough, so he owed a huge amount of foreign debt. , has not yet been repaid.

On Wucheng Island, Lu Yuan was willing to participate in the Alchemy King Meeting as Baili Bo's grandson-in-law because he was short of money, and the price offered by Baili Bo was high enough. The reason why Lu Yuan agreed to the Rampant Demon King this time was because he was The Demon King's wealth was suppressed. If he could earn these two thousand spirit stones, the foreign debts he owed his friends would be almost paid off.

As for Xia Meng's situation, it is similar to Lu Yuan's. Generally speaking, a foundation-building monk can be considered good if he has a net worth of several thousand spiritual stones. The financial situation of the alchemist is slightly better, but not much better. A high-grade geocentric furnace requires almost four to five thousand spiritual stones to refine, which almost empties Xia Meng's financial resources. He is also eager to earn spiritual stones to enrich his pocket.

Both of them were crazy poor people, so when they heard Xie Jiang's conditions in Danwang Cave, they felt that the possibility of success was high, so they rashly came to Hengxing Island.

Qingyang is in a completely different situation. He has a lot of treasures on his body, but he also has no shortage of spiritual stones. He comes to Hengxing Island mainly because he has confidence in his heart, and other reasons are secondary.

Now that the two of them are willing to contribute the Cloud Pattern Ruyi Cauldron and the Earth Core Furnace, it can be considered a huge concession. Qingyang knows that it is impossible for them to do more, so he accepts it and says: "Okay , the matter is settled like this, you hand over the cauldron and furnace to me, the three of us will go into retreat to familiarize ourselves with the elixirs, and come back to this room in ten days to exchange experiences."

Lu Yuan and Xia Meng had no objections to this. They took out the Cloud Pattern Ruyi Cauldron and the Geocentric Furnace respectively, and reluctantly handed them over to Qingyang. The three of them each found a room for retreat.

Qingyang chose that alchemy room as a retreat. In the future, the demon barrier pill will be refined here, so he can get familiar with the place first. After setting up a restriction outside the room, Qingyang found a futon in the room and sat down cross-legged. He took out the Cloud Pattern Ruyi Cauldron and the Earth Core Furnace and looked at them.

The level of these two treasures is not low, but they are still in the category of spiritual weapons and cannot be taken into the body by monks. They are usually placed in the holding talisman and can be taken out when used. Therefore, Lu Yuan and Xia Meng on the two treasures are The aura is not very obvious, Qingyang can control and use it at any time, and will not be affected by any external interference.
