Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Regarding the recipe for Linggen Dan, Luo Chen prepared the root of heaven and earth as the main material, and thirteen medicinal materials such as night feather flower and purple king leaf as auxiliary materials.

In addition, there are dozens of medicinal materials as auxiliary materials, which can be replaced at any time.

Sounds like a small amount?

In fact, this number is already considered too much.

From Luo Chen's point of view, although the conjectures left by Demon Lord Alchemy are a bit outrageous, in the final analysis they are for the use of mortals who have not embarked on the path of cultivation.

Therefore, the grade of the Spiritual Root Pill must not be too high.

It's too high, and even ordinary people can't withstand the relatively terrifying power of the medicine.

As for normal first- and second-level elixirs, the number of main ingredients is not like that of third- and fourth-level elixirs where there are several types at the same time.

In terms of auxiliary materials, Luo Chen has already selected enough.

It is necessary to give full play to the advantages of Heaven and Earth Roots, and at the same time avoid some of the shortcomings of Heaven and Earth Roots as much as possible. The matching of auxiliary materials involved is extremely difficult even for a fourth-level alchemist and requires careful consideration.

Fortunately, now that the main line has been established, just explore a little bit.

Within the alchemy world, Luo Chen's figure shuttled between the mountains and five lakes, and the medicine on his back was filled and changed again, and again and again.

Every piece of medicinal material he needed was picked out by himself.

I have to say that this is a tedious but rewarding job.

Luo Chen also used some of the knowledge he learned from the bamboo slips in his study to actually collect herbs. In addition, some of his experience in collecting herbs came from the accumulation of the first half of his life.

It was also at this time that he suddenly realized why most of the medicinal materials in this world are five hundred years old or less?

In a valley depression, Luo Chen carefully dug out a piece of dry Chen Zhibai, a medicinal material similar to Polygonum multiflorum.

Straightening up, the Taoist looked around.

"If this world is a medicine garden specially set up for the Spiritual Root Pill assessment, then it is natural that the age of these medicinal materials is low."

"Mortal people cannot afford the powerful medicinal power brought by medicinal materials that are too old."

"But, how does the Heavenly Alchemy Demon Lord keep the age of these medicinal materials neither too high nor too low? None of the methods I know can achieve this."

After sighing with emotion, Luo Chen took steps to find the next medicinal material.

Collecting herbs is just a trivial task.

It took about half a month for Luo Chen to successfully collect most of the medicinal materials he needed in the Dan Realm.

Then he returned to the Stone House Pharmacy and started different treatments.

Each medicinal material has different processing methods. Some can be used directly as medicine, some need to be dried in advance, and some need to be ground into powder for later use.

It was during this process that Luo Chen gained a deeper understanding of these medicinal materials, and also had more ideas about the spiritual root elixir recipe he had written before.

While keeping the main material of Tiandigen unchanged, he tried to change the auxiliary materials.

Time passes little by little.

Another half year passed, when everything was ready.

Luo Chen did not directly start trying to make alchemy.

Instead, he concentrated hard and opened the properties panel.

There was no worry on his face, because he had already tried to open the properties panel before.

However, unlike the usual basic attributes that were mainly opened, this time he only clicked on the alchemist part of the career chapter.

Career:

[Level 4 Alchemist]

[Alchemy: Dzogchen in hands of scales, Dzogchen in burning crane hand, Dzogchen alchemy (click to view details)]

[Level 4 elixirs: 5/100 for the entry level of the Transformation Pill, 30/100 for the entry level of the Purple Air Poison Control Pill

Third-level elixirs: Starry Pill Dzogchen, True Flame Pill Dzogchen, Mingyuan Pill Beginner 6/100

Second-level elixir: Huayu Powder is perfect 376/500

First level elixir: Water Condensation Pill Dzogchen

More Dzogchen elixirs (click to view details)]

After most of the content has been reduced, a simple alchemist attribute panel is displayed in front of you.

Compared to the past, there are several more unfamiliar elixir entries, but they are not actually unfamiliar.

The Purple Air Poison-Repelling Pill was specially improved by Luo Chen from a fourth-level poison-repelling pill recipe for Purple Spirit Island and his party. After the success of the group on Purple Spirit Island, Luo Chen stopped there and kept a few spare ones before refining them.

Among the third-level elixirs, the one that has not yet been perfected is the Mingyuan Dan. This is the elixir he learned in order to break through the golden elixir stage.

Among the second-level elixirs, a new elixir was added: Huayu Powder, which was a new elixir he learned in order to recover as soon as possible after leaving hidden wounds on his body for physical training.

But at this moment, none of that matters.

Luo Chen glanced at the number of achievement points at the end of the panel [300]

This is his greatest reliance!

It originally had 334 achievement points, but in order to quickly learn the fourth-level Kai Mao technique, 34 points were spent. This consumption was worth it to Luo Chen, and it was somewhat beyond his expectation.

I originally thought that fourth-level spells would cost more achievement points, but after mastering the prerequisites of opening Mao Shu, Yuan Dan Shu and Locking Bead Curtain, I only spent thirty-four points to successfully get started.

Now there are a total of 300 points left, which gives Luo Chen great confidence for this time's derivation of the elixir.

"Even if someone is ahead of me, if the test questions are the same, no matter how good the alchemy skills are, as long as they don't reach the level of Zhongzhou Alchemy Sage, they will have to make trial and error little by little, spending countless time and energy."

"But I'm different. With the panel in hand, I don't need to waste a lot of time!"

"Even the refining process can save energy."

Luo Chen smiled slightly, feeling more and more confident.

In his opinion, the pioneer may have a high level of alchemy, otherwise he would not have passed the first level in less than three years after the opening of the Land of Fallen Demons.

But can he be compared with the legendary alchemy saint in Zhongzhou?

That is impossible.

How could such a being come here and be in danger?

With a slightly suppressed smile, Luo Chen took a deep breath and brought the previously adjusted recipe of the Spiritual Root Pill to his mind.

Instantly, the corresponding information flowed silently on the system.

[Unknown recipe detected, incomplete version, do you want to complete it? ]

Luo Chen frowned. This was the recipe he was most confident in after carefully selecting it, and he felt that it was extremely mature.

It was still incomplete?

With a thought, another recipe was sent to the system.

[Unknown recipe detected, incomplete version, do you want to complete it? ]

[Unknown recipe detected, incomplete version, do you want to complete it? ]

Incomplete again and again, asking whether to complete it again and again, this means that the recipes deduced by Luo Chen are not mature.

Luo Chen was slightly unhappy, but not too depressed.

In his opinion, this recipe for the Spiritual Root Pill was only the second level, and it would only take ten achievement points to complete it.

But he resisted the urge to complete it.

"This is only the first level. No one knows how many levels there are and how difficult they are. Three hundred achievement points are my biggest confidence after years of accumulation. It's best not to waste them easily."

After muttering, Luo Chen returned to his desk and continued to write furiously.

He tried to make new permutations and combinations for the system to detect, but all the combinations of medicinal materials were incomplete under the system's detection.

A few days later, Luo Chen, who was sitting in a chair with red eyes, suddenly moved.

"I wanted to take a shortcut, but maybe I took a detour?"

Looking at the densely packed drafts on the table, Luo Chen clearly felt the signs of getting further and further away from success.

He found the first few recipes from the drafts.

After reading tens of thousands of papers, the initial intuition should be correct.

The reason for the incompleteness should not be the combination of medicinal materials, but the quota of the amount...

After having this idea, he began to change his mind to modify the recipe.

...

Another month later, Luo Chen got a satisfactory answer from the system.

[A complete recipe for the Spiritual Root Pill was detected, second level. ]

[Is it a beginner? ]

Instantly, surprise appeared on his face.

Sure enough, this idea is feasible.

By reading a large number of medicinal materials, relying on personal understanding, select the best solution and narrow the scope.

Then correct the quota of medicinal materials, and even adjust the refining method, and then use the system to detect whether it is complete.

In this way, the problem that most alchemists cannot improve can be solved.

Perhaps doing so is a despicable way to take shortcuts.

But Luo Chen is not a pedantic person, and a little moral guilt will not affect him.

Because he has already researched the specific recipe, success is just around the corner. He just used the system to speed up the process and avoid unnecessary trial and error in the middle.

"Then, let's try to refine it!"

Muttering, Luo Chen walked to the alchemy room and took out the Hunyuan Ding.

This time, he did not choose to use the achievement points directly to get started.

The self-derived pill formula was under his control.

In addition, the grade was only second-grade, which was more than enough for his current alchemy skills.

The large amount of medicinal materials prepared before came in handy at this time.

A few months later.

In the alchemy room, a strange pill fragrance wafted out.

Luo Chen held several colorful pills in his hands, looking relieved.

"Is this considered a success?"

He looked around, and there was no strange phenomenon!

But the Linggen Pill had indeed been refined by him.

At this time, a slightly weak voice exploded in the dark and echoed in the alchemy room.

"The pill is a second-grade lower grade, which can temporarily replace the spiritual root and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Taking it can ensure that the medicinal power will not fall for ten years."

"The assessment result is inferior and unqualified."

As soon as these words came out, Luo Chen's face changed drastically.

He was shocked by the voice and puzzled by the assessment results.

"Where did this voice come from?"

"Who made it?"

"Why does it carry an unconcealable sense of weakness?"

These questions, naturally, could not be answered by anyone.

Luo Chen took a deep breath and put all his questions on the assessment results.

"It shouldn't be!"

"The pills have been refined, and my own system evaluation shows complete pill recipes. How could it be..."

While muttering to himself, Luo Chen suddenly recalled the content of the voice.

"It can temporarily replace the spiritual roots, absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and take it to ensure that the medicinal power will not fall for ten years."

This is a description of the medicinal power of the spiritual root pill he refined. The other party has never taken this pill, so how could he make such an evaluation?

Unfortunately, there was no one to test the medicine in front of him.

Luo Chen was ruthless and swallowed the spiritual root pill directly. He immediately sat cross-legged and meditated to feel the changes in the medicinal power.

A mere second-level pill is no problem for him at his current level. Even if there is a backlash, he can resist it!

One day later, Luo Chen vaguely realized the problem.

"This spiritual root pill does have the effect of temporarily replacing the spiritual root to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but the medicinal power is too strong, and only Qi Refining cultivators can bear it."

"But the target group of this pill is mortals, and they just want to use this pill to practice to the Qi Refining stage."

"In this way, it is contradictory."

For a moment, Luo Chen's expression was uncertain.

I still underestimated the tolerance of mortals to elixirs.

The second level is beyond the scope!

But how to solve it?

Refining a first-level spiritual root pill?

That's impossible. A first-level pill can't have such a miraculous effect. The grade of the pill made from the five-hundred-year-old root of heaven and earth can't be too low.

This doubt lasted for several days.

Until Luo Chen recalled that when he was at a low level, his process of taking pills was different from others.

Strong physique, detoxification pill technique, etc.

All allowed him to withstand more and greater medicinal power at the same level.

In the case that the spiritual root pill can't reduce the grade, can we find another way to improve the mortal's physique and help people practice?

Thinking of this, Luo Chen suddenly had many inspirations in his mind.

Immediately, he stepped into the study and continued to write.

Three months later, Luo Chen returned to the alchemy room again with two pill recipes.

This time, he didn't stay in there for long.

In just two months, he had two more pills in his hand.

At the same time, the voice with a slightly weird and weak tone reappeared.

"Five Organs Peiyuan Pill, the first-grade lower grade pill can help mortals nourish the five internal organs."

"Xueling Tongmai Powder, the first-grade lower grade pill, long-term use can help mortals open up meridians and open up the Xuanguan."

"Spirit Root Pill, the second-grade lower grade pill, combined with Five Organs Peiyuan Pill and Xueling Tongmai Powder, can help people absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the medicinal power will last for thirty years."

"Test results, good... passed!"

As soon as these words came out, Luo Chen's face was instantly ecstatic.

Sure enough!

His guess was right.

In the case that his foundation could not further optimize the Spirit Root Pill, it would be a better choice to find another way to research auxiliary pills to strengthen the mortal body!

Thirty years!

This time is enough.

If mortals cannot use the Spirit Root Pill to cultivate to the foundation-building stage within thirty years, then everything will be over.

But if they succeed by luck, then they can build the foundation of the Great Dao!

By then, the conjecture of breaking the gap between immortals and mortals will be preliminarily completed.

As for how to cultivate to the foundation-building stage with the help of Dan Linggen, it is not something Luo Chen can solve now.

Or, take it one step at a time, and maybe a better way can be found by then.

At least, the Dantian has turned into the sea, the Qi Sea has been opened up, and the foundation of the Great Dao has been built, which is much better than the mortal period.

If it is compared with those pseudo-alchemists in the North Sea who cultivated to the Golden Core Stage with the help of the inner elixir of the monster beast, it will be easier to understand.

Pseudo-alchemists will never be able to advance to the middle stage of the Golden Core in their lifetime.

But those who choose this path have naturally made preparations.

Thinking of this, Luo Chen seemed to have another inspiration in his mind.

From Dan Linggen, what about changing the path and taking the demon spirit root?

The details are like clouds and fog, and there is no way, but at least there is a way.

When Luo Chen was excited, the surroundings suddenly became illusory.

"What is this?"

Luo Chen seemed to realize something in his surprise.

With a thought, he quickly flew to the study, waved his hand, and waved at the bamboo slips.

However, something unexpected happened.

The bamboo slips also became ethereal at the same time.

"Can't I take them away?"

Luo Chen felt a little regretful.

The next moment, the sky changed, and he appeared in an unfamiliar land.
