Lonely Immortal

However, Zhang Zhiwen quickly came back to his senses, and then showed a confused expression again. He looked at Li Mohuan blankly and said, "Uncle Li, what are you talking about?"

Li Mohuan was slightly stunned. He frowned and stared at Zhang Zhiwen, as if he wanted to see some clues from Zhang Zhiwen's expression, but unfortunately, Zhang Zhiwen had been wandering outside for so many years. He dared not say anything else, but this kind of skill of pretending to be stupid was definitely very good, with almost no flaws.

"You don't have to pretend, I know it's you!" Li Mohuan seemed unwilling, because Zhang Zhiwen's appearance and clothes were almost completely matched with the object he suspected.

But Zhang Zhiwen became calmer. He didn't know why Li Mohuan suddenly recognized his identity, but from the other party's reaction, it was obvious that there was no solid evidence. He was already curious in his heart, and he really didn't reveal any obvious flaws. So, why was he still hesitating?

He continued to play dumb and said, "I really don't know what Master Li is talking about. I wonder if Master Li can explain it in detail?"

After Zhang Zhiwen denied it back and forth, Li Mohuan was obviously shaken. He didn't think Zhang Zhiwen was a powerful master, and Zhang Zhiwen was only twelve years old, which was definitely difficult to match with a master.

Could it be that he really saw it wrong?

Li Mohuan could only wave his hands impatiently in the end: "Nothing, you stay aside."

"Yes!"

Zhang Zhiwen hurriedly walked away respectfully.

Zhang Zhiwen walked to the side and sat next to the big basket, and then guarded the big basket without saying a word.

Seeing him like this, Li Mohuan immediately lost interest and ignored it, but he was still very confused in his heart, who was that mysterious man?

But he had no clue now, he could only give an order and take everyone back to the city.

This time, the Chamber of Commerce's pharmacy suffered heavy losses, and Deputy Hall Master Hou and others died. Therefore, Wang Kun and others did not dare to cause trouble along the way, for fear of causing Li Mohuan's displeasure. Li Mohuan also had a stinky face along the way and never talked to Zhang Zhiwen again.

So, the group returned to the city.

Wang Kun and others were of course eager to claim the credit, and urged Zhang Zhiwen to carry a large basket to the Chamber of Commerce to report. Zhang Zhiwen did not say much, and honestly followed their instructions and came to the Chamber of Commerce with a large basket on his back.

Back to the Chamber of Commerce, Zhang Zhiwen saw that there were many more people in black here. Zhang Zhiwen was too familiar with the breath of these people. They were obviously the people of the killer organization. It seems that the Bai family and the Feng family have indeed joined forces secretly, but they don't know what will happen next.

Wang Kun and others were also quite panicked when they saw so many people in black here, but they were relieved when they saw that the people in black ignored them.

Afterwards, Zhang Zhiwen handed over a large basket of medicinal materials. Of course, the credit was taken away by Wang Kun and others. Wang Kun gave Zhang Zhiwen a few silver leaves and impatiently sent Zhang Zhiwen away.

However, just as Zhang Zhiwen was about to leave, he was stopped by a man in black.

The man in black searched Zhang Zhiwen without saying a word, but he found nothing after searching, so he let Zhang Zhiwen go.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen left the Chamber of Commerce.

After returning to his residence, Zhang Zhiwen locked himself in the house. In the following days, Zhang Zhiwen stayed in the house and did not go anywhere. It seemed that everything returned to calm. He was still a sackcloth disciple, Yan Ling and others were still sackcloth disciples, and Wang Kun and others still lived the life of a chic white-clothed disciple. The medicine hall transferred several alchemists from other counties to replace the several alchemists who had died, and then not even a master was assigned to Zhang Zhiwen and others. The Chamber of Commerce did not mention the death of Deputy Hall Master Hou and others, as if nothing had happened.

However, seven days later, Zhang Zhiwen finally left his residence and went out of the city.

During these seven days, Feng Yun had been monitoring him. Of course, this person did not monitor him all the time, but came and went. Zhang Zhiwen guessed that the other party must have also monitored Wang Kun and others, which shows how suspicious the people of this casual cultivator family are.

However, after these few days, Feng seemed to have eliminated his doubts, and as for Bai, he never showed up.

Zhang Zhiwen left the city, still the same as before, pretending to collect medicinal herbs. Anyway, this is how the disciples of the medicine hall do their tasks, so this will not arouse any suspicion. Zhang Zhiwen also took this opportunity to return to Xueling and find out the several hundred-year-old medicinal herbs he had hidden, and then returned to the cave where the medicinal herbs were hidden before.

When he arrived at the cave and confirmed that no one was following him, Zhang Zhiwen breathed a sigh of relief.

For these three hundred-year-old medicinal herbs for refining spiritual energy powder, Zhang Zhiwen can be said to have fought wits and courage with those people. These medicinal herbs are really not easy to get!

But now, the medicinal materials are basically ready. Zhang Zhiwen took out the medicine furnace and some other medicinal materials. Starting today, he will prepare to refine the spiritual energy powder.

Yes, when Wang Kun and others handed the medicinal materials to him, he naturally took advantage of the situation and took the three medicinal materials he needed and hid them secretly. He had to take this risk, otherwise he would not be able to get these three hundred-year-old medicinal materials.

But Zhang Zhiwen was not very worried that the medicine hall would find something wrong. After all, no one would know if hundreds of medicinal materials were used in troubled waters. In addition, the three medicinal materials he needed were not just three, but hundreds. Obviously, these were the main medicinal materials for refining the spiritual energy powder, and it was normal to have more.

So he didn't believe that Bai and Feng could really see any clues. In that case, he took some more medicinal materials and hid them. Anyway, there was no big difference between missing three herbs and nine herbs.

But the process of refining the elixir was not smooth, and it was scrapped just after the first furnace was started. However, Zhang Zhiwen was not in a hurry and continued to refine the second furnace.

Refining Reiki Powder is different from refining medicinal pills. You need to mash the medicinal materials, add mountain spring water, then put it into the alchemy furnace and slowly refine it over the fire. However, you need to cut off a small piece of Guxian Fruit and mash it. Adding, in short, the process is still relatively complicated.

Fortunately, Zhang Zhiwen has developed a good temper over the years. Those with a bad temper may be a little impatient, and may even fail to refine the medicine, and may smash the medicine furnace. After all, after tinkering with these materials, plus Slow fire refining takes a full day, and if the heat is not allowed to deviate, then you have to stare at the alchemy furnace and not dare to relax for a moment. This is also a test of patience.

In this way, Zhang Zhiwen continued to refine the elixir. Ten days later, Zhang Zhiwen finally refined the spiritual energy powder. In these ten days, he refined ten furnaces, seven of which failed, and the seven failed furnaces were either burned. Burnt, or the heat It was not enough, and the elixir that came out was not formed, but only three furnaces were successfully refined. At this moment, he had three pieces of spiritual energy powder in his hand. This green and crystal clear elixir was exuding a faint fragrance. This was the essence of a solitary fairy fruit. All output is done.

In the past few days, he was also very tired, and refining alchemy was very draining. Fortunately, he practiced the Sutra of Immortality. Every time he refined a pot, no matter the success or failure, he would meditate to regain his energy. Only then could he barely survive ten days, and he would be like an ordinary person. , I'm afraid it will be difficult to persist, or the refining of the elixir will completely fail.

Now, the Ling Qi Powder has been successfully produced, exactly as recorded in the book. Although this elixir is only a low-grade elixir, for Zhang Zhiwen, it is the best elixir he has refined so far.

Without hesitation, he picked up a piece of Reiki Powder and swallowed it.

The spiritual energy melted in his mouth, instantly turning into a clear spiritual energy that surged in Zhang Zhiwen's belly. Zhang Zhiwen quickly gathered his mind and began to absorb this huge medicinal power.

However, the medicinal power of this spiritual energy powder is quite soft, a bit softer than that of the Solitary Immortal Fruit, and the spiritual power contained in it is actually twice as high as that of the Solitary Immortal Fruit. Sure enough, the elixir is much more effective than the medicinal materials. This is also The magical effect of alchemy, if you just take the Guxian fruit, it would be too much. It was a waste, and Zhang Zhiwen refined so little spiritual energy powder because of his poor alchemy skills. Logically speaking, the elixir yield rate of low-grade elixirs should be relatively high, not to mention 100% elixir yield, but at least 70 to 80% No problem, but the first time Zhang Zhiwen refined it, he only had a 30% success rate.

If you become proficient in elixir refining in the future, the elixir production rate will be greatly improved. One Lone Immortal Fruit can be used to refine at least seven or eight grains of spiritual energy, and the utilization rate will be doubled.

It took Zhang Zhiwen three days and three nights to absorb this piece of spiritual energy, and his cultivation level also improved rapidly, and he was about to break through the second level of Qi refining.

Of course, Zhang Zhiwen did not hesitate and continued to take a pill of Reiki Powder, and then continued to absorb the power of the medicine.

This time, the absorption time was obviously much shorter, perhaps because the spiritual power in Zhang Zhiwen's body increased greatly, and the spiritual energy powder was a low-grade elixir, but even so, this spiritual energy powder finally allowed Zhang Zhiwen to break through, and his cultivation level reached Reached the second level of Qi Refining!

At this moment, Zhang Zhiwen clearly felt something different. The aura in his body had changed from the thickness of his little finger to the thickness of his thumb, more than doubling in size. With a slight thought, a pigeon egg appeared on his fingertips. Although the fireball was still very small, Zhang Zhiwen felt that the spiritual power in his body was still quite abundant. He could release such a spell at least ten times, which was almost multiple times!

No wonder he saw that Bai Suifeng fired dozens of wind blades with one move, and Bai Suifeng's spiritual power showed no signs of exhaustion. The strength gap between the second level of Qi Refining and the first level of Qi Refining was really too big.

But even if Zhang Zhiwen has now reached the second level of Qi refining, he is also aware of the gap between him and Bai Suifeng. His spiritual power is definitely not as good as the other's. After all, Zhang Zhiwen has just entered the second level of Qi refining, and his spells are not as good as his opponent's. By releasing dozens of wind blade spells in one breath, Zhang Zhiwen would be unable to fight against others.

But he can't beat him, but he can still run away. At least now when he meets Bai Suifeng, Zhang Zhiwen can completely escape. In addition, his method of hiding his aura is obviously better than the opponent's. He doesn't believe that Bai Suifeng can catch him. Before that, he His cultivation level is far inferior to that of the other party, and there is no guarantee that the other party will be able to catch him, and it is even more impossible now.
