Fairy Tree

The five-leaf grass in Xiao Lin's Spiritual Wood Space has reached nearly 120 years of medicinal age, but it still shows no signs of stopping. This shows that this grass is at least a third-level spiritual grass. As for how old it is, We have to wait until it is truly mature to know the level.

The main reason why Xiao Lin never knew the name of this five-leaf grass was that he didn't dare to ask around. If he asked around, people would probably suspect that he had obtained this kind of spiritual grass. It is precious, and might attract powerful enemies above the Foundation Establishment stage to himself. With his current combat power, it would be absolutely hopeless for him to encounter a Foundation Establishment stage monk.

What surprised Xiao Lin was that the seeds obtained from the "Eternal Immortal" Hua Rongrong finally produced bright red fruits. This weird fruit was about the size of a pigeon egg and was bright red all over. , and with a sweet smell, even Xiao Lin almost couldn't help but want to pick it off and taste it.

But he thought about it and still didn't do it. He was now nearly nineteen years old. In two months, it would be his nineteenth birthday. He planned to take this weird fruit on that day. If it really happened Being able to stay young allows him to maintain his nineteen-year-old appearance forever. Although in the world of cultivation, there are not a few foundation-building monks who look in their teens or twenties, and even those who look like they are in their twenties. It is not unusual for the ancestors of Jindan, but this is mostly because the exercises they practice have the effect of keeping their appearance.

Of course, there are also some talented people with earthly roots and above who have successfully established foundations in their teens and twenties. Once they have established foundations, their lifespans will reach a terrifying two hundred years or more, and at this time, the decline in body functions will become extremely severe. Slowly, a cultivator in the foundation building stage who is fifty or sixty years old looks like he is only in his twenties or thirties. This is normal. And if he can enter the golden elixir stage at the age of fifty or sixty, his lifespan will be doubled again. , then even if he lives to be one hundred, seventeen or eighty years old, he may only look twenty or thirty years old.

But there are still very few such people. Most of the ancestors of Jindan seem to be old men in their sixties or seventies. After all, they enter the Jindan stage at the age of fifty or sixty. They rely not only on talent, but sometimes luck. It also accounts for the vast majority.

Moreover, there are not many exercises with beauty-preserving properties. Most male cultivators are not particular about appearance, so few male cultivators would create some exercises with beauty-preserving properties. However, women are different. Relatively speaking, there are more exercises with beauty-preserving properties, so if you see a beautiful girl in the fairy city, don't foolishly think that she is only in her teens, maybe several hundred years old. She is the Yuanying old monster.

In the next few days, Xiao Lin purchased some auxiliary medicinal materials for refining the improved version of Yunling Pill. Ten days later, he drove Seven Blades Slash and left Chixia Fairy City. Before leaving Chixia Fairy City, he also He paid careful attention to see if there was anyone following behind him. After experiencing being chased by three high-level Qi Refining monks in the Hidden Mist City, Xiao Lin became more and more careful, and he didn't think that Huo Jun would really keep the secret any longer. Make trouble for yourself.

However, what pleased him was that no one was following him after he left the city. After flying thousands of miles, he completely relaxed and found a hiding place in the Tianlu Mountains.

Two days later, Xiao Lin landed in a narrow valley. After inspecting the surrounding area for dozens of miles, Xiao Lin used the Seven-Blade Slash to dig a small cave against the root of the mountain, and dug all the way into the heart of the mountain. After digging the temporary shelter, he collapsed the entrance of the cave to create a post-earthquake appearance. This time, Xiao Lin planned to refine an improved version of the Spirit-Absorbing Pill here.

In the belly of the mountain, Xiao Lin sat cross-legged on the ground. In front of him was the purple silver-smelting furnace. Beside the purple silver-smelting furnace, there were many medicinal herbs. Xiao Lin first sat cross-legged and meditated to restore the energy that had been lost in the past few days. God, he opened his eyes after an hour, but he did not rush to start refining the elixir. Instead, he closed his eyes again and began to meditate on the steps of elixir refining and what needed to be paid attention to at each step.

After another two hours, Xiao Lin opened his eyes again. With a flick of his hand, a mini fireball popped up, instantly igniting the black charcoal under the purple silver smelting furnace. The hot flames burned instantly, and Xiao Lin was shining brightly. Lin's face also shone red. After a while, when he saw that the flame had stabilized, Xiao Lin poured in water and put auxiliary herbs into the alchemy furnace one by one.

Soon the strong fragrance of medicine filled the entire mountain. Xiao Lin also looked at the alchemy furnace with a serious face. The medicinal liquid in the alchemy furnace had turned into a transparent emerald green and was gently rotating in the alchemy furnace. Xiao Lin While staring closely at the alchemy furnace, his mind was constantly thinking about the refining method of the improved version of the Spirit-Yun Pill, verifying it with the alchemy process one by one.

Seeing that the liquid in the alchemy furnace was about to turn transparent, and the liquid was spinning faster and faster, Xiao Lin decisively opened the two jade boxes next to him, took out two mature Spirit Mist Grasses and threw them in. In the alchemy furnace, he followed up by pinching the magic formula with his hands and pouring the spiritual secrets into the liquid to speed up the fusion and condensation of the liquid.

Just like this, another hour passed, and the entire mountain began to be enveloped in a clear and rich medicinal fragrance. Xiao Lin also showed a nervous look on his face, and the spiritual skills in his hands were faster, and his hands even Bringing out layers of phantoms, the liquid in the alchemy furnace rotated faster and faster, and in the middle of the liquid, an emerald green pill was slowly condensing.

"Poof" at this time, the emerald green pill in the middle of the alchemy furnace suddenly burst open, and the liquid in the alchemy furnace sprayed out directly. It actually failed at the most critical moment of condensing the pill.

The moment the elixir exploded, Xiao Lin used a magic power to prevent the liquid from splashing on him. He looked at the elixir furnace with a thoughtful expression on his face. He had no idea about refining this improved version of the Spirit-Absorbing Pill. , Xiao Lin did not feel that he could successfully refine it the first time, and he had already expected this result in his heart. Even though it failed, he was still full of disappointment, but it was completely within his expectations.

He stared at the alchemy furnace in a daze, while his mind was reviewing the process of refining the elixir. Every step was replayed in his mind, and then he confirmed it with the elixir recipe in the jade slip. After a few hours, his eyes recovered again. Shen Zai, sighed softly, threw a spirit-accumulating pill into his mouth, and then began to meditate and practice.

An hour later, Xiao Lin woke up from his trance, then cheered up and threw himself into alchemy again.

In the world of cultivation, alchemy and talisman making are recognized as the two most difficult professions. Refining elixirs and refining talismans have the same success rate, because no matter whether they are alchemy or talisman making, every process is very complicated. , like alchemy, each auxiliary medicinal material is put in, and then under what circumstances the next auxiliary medicinal material is put in, and the necessary melting time after each medicine is put in, the timing of adding the main medicinal herbs, and the time of condensing the elixir. The rotation speed of the liquid medicine and the degree of melting the medicine, each step is very critical. A slight mistake will lead to the failure of the alchemy.

It can be said that refining elixir is the most complex skill in the world of cultivation. Compared with making talismans, it is even better. Xiao Lin even heard the sentence more than once when he was wandering around Chixia Fairy City: "Making talismans is poor." Three generations of the Alchemy Clan."

What this sentence means is to learn the art of making talismans. If you are a casual cultivator, it will take one or two hundred years and three generations to connect. All the resources will support one person to learn how to make talismans. Maybe he can achieve success. Of course, this is just a possibility. , does not mean that you will definitely be able to become a Talisman Maker, and if you want to become an alchemist, the resources required, even if a large cultivation family fully supports it, may not be enough. Even a certain incident happened in the Tianlu Mountains. A cultivator family spent everything they had in order to support a low-level cultivator in the family to learn alchemy, which ultimately led to the decline of the entire family.

Therefore, in the Tianlu Mountains, the real alchemists are basically within the five major sects, and it is rumored that there are only one or two great alchemists in Dancao Mountain who can refine third-level elixirs. From this, it can be seen that this alchemy Masters are so rare. If Xiao Lin didn't have such a heaven-defying location as the Spirit Wood Space, he would never be able to become an alchemy master. Even the lowest level Soul-accumulating Pill would be impossible to refine.

You know, when he first started refining the Spirit-accumulating Pill, he failed dozens of times in a row. If these resources were converted into spiritual stones, they would be at least tens of thousands. From this, we can see how difficult it is to refine the pill.

Fortunately, Xiao Lin is not worried about resources. With the spirit wood space, he has enough spirit grass for him to practice. Even if he fails, it is completely within his tolerance. In addition, he is relatively stable and careful by nature. And he is very persistent in doing things, which allows him to persevere despite countless failures.

A month later, Xiao Lin was sitting in the middle of the mountain, his face covered with sweat, but his face was filled with an excited smile. In the palm of his hand, a bean-sized emerald green elixir was rolling. There is no difference in the size of the pill compared to the Spirit-accumulating Pill that Xiao Lin had refined before. However, this Spirit-accumulating Pill is more transparent. The inside of the almost transparent Spirit Pill is flashing with a faint cyan halo, and at the same time it emits spiritual energy. It is also at least 30% richer than the previously refined Spirit-Absorbing Pill.

This is what Xiao Lin has achieved in the past month. Today he finally refined the first batch of seven improved versions of the Soul-Absorbing Pill.

Xiao Lin looked at the Yunling Pill in his palm excitedly. The hard work during this period was finally not in vain. With this improved version of the Yunling Pill, he could finally start to try to hit the mid-term bottleneck. This mid-term bottleneck was like his cultivation. The ravines on the road had blocked him for too long.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lin put the improved version of the Soul-Calling Pill back into the jade jar, then took out an ordinary Soul-Calling Pill and put it into his mouth. He closed his eyes and started practicing. He would waste this time before hitting the mid-term bottleneck. Only when all the energy and spirit are restored to their peak state.
