Immortality Gu Tao: Start By Refining the Infatuation Gu

Chapter 48: Middle-grade alchemist, perfect score on elixir theory

 A few more days passed.

The Yunwu Mountains have entered winter, with heavy snowfall, making the monks' survival even more difficult.

Especially for monks who went into the mountains to hunt monsters, the monsters hid due to the heavy snow. Not only was hunting more dangerous, but they also couldn't find prey for a long time, resulting in nothing.

Of course, these things had nothing to do with Zhou Sui. He still stayed at home to practice.

 Hurrah lala~~

At this time, Zhou Sui sat cross-legged on the ground. He used the power of the Book Gu, and streams of gray air flowed into the depths of his soul, which greatly improved his understanding.

 A lot of knowledge about first-level alchemy emerged in his mind.

He said that in the red gold veins, although there was no threat from other monks and the original second-level monsters had been killed, there were still some terrifying poisonous insect monsters hidden deep in the veins.

"Um?!"

 Zhang Cheng said straightforwardly.

However, it is a pity that since he does not have an alchemy, he currently has no chance to conduct experiments.

 Dong dong dong!

“Of course, I’m not asking you to give away spiritual stones for free. I just want to sell you the first-level high-grade alchemy cauldron I have in my possession, hoping to get five thousand low-grade spiritual stones.”

After all, high-grade detoxifying pills are expensive and require at least 10,000 low-grade spiritual stones, which is equivalent to 100 medium-grade spiritual stones.

Zhou Sui's consciousness swept away and he instantly realized that the person outside the door was actually his neighbor, the alchemist Zhang Cheng, whom he had not seen for a long time.

"this!"

 After the age of forty or fifty, you basically know your destiny and know that you have no hope of building a foundation in this life.

“The power of Book Gu is indeed mysterious.”

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.

 He is already extremely familiar with alchemy, and he has a handful of it in his hand.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Cheng was so unlucky and encountered a black thread poisonous insect.

"If I don't have it, I won't have it. I've been poisoned by this black line. Even if I use the top-grade detoxifying pill, my path will be ruined. My path will basically be hopeless in this life."

This feeling is like studying elixir knowledge for more than ten years.

At this moment, Zhou Sui opened his eyes and looked at his virtual panel. After several days of hard training, he had reached the level of a first-level mid-level alchemist.

 How can I not get my shoes wet if I often walk along the river?

 At that time, the true energy in the monk's body will continue to deplete, and then it will be difficult to cure with medicine and stone, and he can only wait for death.

Only a fool would choose to go mining with the people of Xianxia Sect. Wouldn’t it be better to stay in a safe city and practice? !

 Zhou Sui was startled and looked at the other party.

Zhou Sui was surprised.

“I want to ask you, my wise nephew, to exchange for some spiritual stones and buy a high-grade detoxifying pill. Only the high-grade detoxifying pill can remove the black line poison from my body and allow me to survive.”

Hearing this, Zhou Sui had nothing to say. He originally thought that he would not encounter much trouble as a miner. At most, he might encounter erosion from the red gold energy.

This is like a taxi driver selling his taxi, obviously wanting to change his career.

If the monks are not careful, they will also be attacked by these poisonous insects and monsters. Black line poisonous insect is one of them.

Moreover, Zhang Cheng's condition is also very bad now. His hair is white, his skin has strange black lines, and his body exudes the smell of rotten wood, as if his lifespan is about to run out.

 In a short time, he will be able to become a second-level alchemist, and even be able to refine foundation-building pills.

 Faintly, his soul seemed to have entered Shugu's internal virtual library, where he was constantly learning how to purify elixirs and refine elixirs, as if he had been an alchemy apprentice for more than ten years.

“First-level mid-level alchemist.”

“Uncle Zhang, what’s going on with you?”

　　Whoosh!

Thinking of this, Zhou Sui flashed to the door of the courtyard and opened the door.

Originally, he just memorized this knowledge and did not fully understand it. However, with the help of Shu Gu, he gained a deep understanding of this knowledge.

Without the help of Shu Gu, he might not be able to get started even after practicing hard for more than ten years.

 Simply put, it means full marks for theory and zero marks for practice.

But now, as long as Book Gu eats those books and jade slips, he can start learning on his own and achieve full theoretical scores. If he uses those gray mysterious energies, he can improve his understanding and deepen his understanding of this knowledge. .

 In this case, there is no need for them to waste time and choose to return to the secular world and enjoy the happiness of family.

But he believed that as long as he could operate it skillfully a few times, he would be able to completely learn how to make alchemy.

 In fact, this is also the choice of many casual practitioners.

“Oh, nephew, this is my fault. A week ago, I was mining in the red gold mine, and I accidentally encountered a black thread poisonous insect. As a result, I was poisoned. Now the black thread poison has invaded my meridians.”

Once a monk gives up building foundations and returns to the secular world, he can enjoy glory and wealth in the secular society, have more than a dozen rooms of concubines, give birth to a lot of fat babies, and spread his branches.

They are good at hiding in the darkness, and they contain black lines of poison inside. Once they invade the monk's body, it will be like gangrene attached to the bone, invading the meridians of the monk's body.

With the help of the power of the book Gu, he devoured the jade slips passed down by that level of alchemy master, and then ate those alchemy recipes. He knew the theoretical knowledge of alchemy like the back of his hand and thoroughly understood it.

But Zhang Cheng is an alchemist. After losing the alchemy cauldron, he loses his food.

Zhang Cheng had a bitter look on his lips as he recounted his experiences in the past few months.

“I wonder why Uncle Zhang came here this time?”

“Uncle Zhang, if that’s the case, then you don’t have an alchemy cauldron.”

 After all, in the wild, any accident may happen.

If I had the power of Book Gu to help me in my previous life on Earth, I might be able to become the top scientist on Earth in an instant and master all the knowledge of the Earth from the past to the present.

Zhou Sui vaguely guessed something, but still asked.

He knows that the market price of a first-level high-grade alchemy cauldron requires at least 8,000 low-grade spiritual stones. Now it is only 5,000, which is already a 40% discount, which can be said to be a benefit.

 Because he remembered that Zhang Cheng had followed the Xianxia Sect to mine the red gold veins. He didn't expect that Zhang Cheng would become this virtuous after not seeing him for several months.

Even a few months before death, he will be corroded by severe poisons and suffer painful torture day and night.

 Sure enough, my choice was correct.

“After I get rid of the toxins from my body, I plan to return to the secular world, marry several wives, and spread my business.”

Zhang Cheng said helplessly, with a look of defeat on his face. It was obvious that he had completely given up on building the foundation.



 Zhou Sui was very emotional.

 Zhang Cheng was originally a very ambitious alchemist and believed that he had a good chance of building a foundation in the future.

 But after this blow, he completely recognized the reality and planned to sell all his possessions, return to the secular life, and become a wealthy man in peace and stability.
