Chapter 47 Getting Started
Chapter 47 Getting Started
"Congeal!"
Wei Zhong pinched his fingers and a pill flew out of the cauldron and landed in his palm.
The pill was green in color, with an uneven surface and poor appearance, but its grade was undoubtedly lower grade.
Wei Zhong looked at the panel.
[Alchemy·Water·Level 1 (Entry %)]
"I've definitely gotten started."
After spending several days, Wei Zhong finally made a Qi-nourishing Pill, and started to learn the water-based alchemy method.
Unlike the conventional fire refining method of extracting the essence of spiritual medicine, the water refining method uses the warming and nourishing extraction of spiritual water masses.
It takes a long time, but rarely leads to failure during the extraction process.
In the first step of extraction, it can be said that time is exchanged for success rate. The only problem is in the step of pill formation.
The biggest difficulty in alchemy is how to condense the essences of various elixirs in what proportions and in what order.
Wei Zhong had no idea how many times he had failed at this step, but today he finally succeeded in making a low-grade Qi-nourishing Pill and officially became a first-class alchemist.
I have just started to learn water alchemy, but I haven't had time to learn fire alchemy yet.
Wei Zhong has been practicing for many years and has become very adept at manipulating the spiritual power of water. That is why he started with water alchemy. As for fire alchemy, he will put it off for a while.
After all, you can't chew too much at a time. If you encounter a bottleneck in the future, you can learn a thing or two.
Putting away the alchemy cauldron, Wei Zhong looked at the table in the training room. On it were jade slips of various sizes, all of which were the inheritance of the hundred arts of cultivation that Wei Zhong had collected from the Li family during this period.
Without exception, they are all first-level inheritances, and some are even half incomplete.
The only thing that barely caught Wei Zhong's eye was a talisman inheritance, which recorded the production methods of talisman skin and talisman ink, as well as the production methods of several first-level talismans.
There are household talismans such as the Dust-Clearing Talisman and the House-Guarding Talisman, as well as combat talismans such as the Qi-Restoring Talisman and the Wind Blade Talisman.
However, Wei Zhong, who inherited this tradition, did not immediately start drawing talismans.
The use of a first-level talisman is too small for me. Even if I upgrade it to the master or even grandmaster level, the power of the talisman will be limited by the talisman ink and talisman paper.
Instead of wasting time making talismans, Wei Zhong might as well learn a few new second-level spells. He believed that after the qualitative change of the second-level spells, it would bring him unexpected surprises.
With a hand gesture, Wei Zhong's body was suddenly covered with a light black film. This was one of the supporting techniques recorded in the "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Techniques".
Second level defensive spell:
[Black Water Spirit Clothes·Entry Level (17%)]
Wei Zhong has the throwing skill for attack, the cloud-flying skill for escape, the breath-concealing skill and the invisibility skill for hiding, but the only thing he lacks is defense.
So he chose this technique from "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Technique" to perfect himself.
You no longer have to just use magic weapons for defense, you can also withstand a certain amount of damage yourself.
Wei Zhong condensed a water bullet at his fingertips and fired it at his chest. The collision of the two immediately caused ripples on the water coat.
When attacked by a sharp blade, the soft water coat seemed to turn into hard steel, blocking the invasion of the sharp blade.
This is the effect of the Black Water Spirit Cloth, blunt attacks can dissipate force, sharp blades can turn into steel, and it can constantly change its state to resist the attacks it encounters.
Wei Zhong released it with satisfaction, walked out of the training room, looked at the newly planted spiritual rice in the cave outside, and stretched lazily.
These are the second-level spiritual rice that Wei Zhong planted personally recently. After all, the mystery of the cave cannot be told to outsiders.
Planting the second-level spiritual rice in the cave, in addition to it being one of the raw materials for the second-level Qingluozui, Wei Zhong also wanted to see whether the second-level spiritual rice planted on the third-level spiritual vein would be of better quality than the one planted on the Black Lake Island.
If it is better, I can use it to brew spirit wine in the future, or use it as the staple food. Although the foundation-building cultivator has already practiced fasting, Wei Zhong always misses the desire for food.
Coming to a small corner of the spiritual field, there was a low bush of Ganoderma lucidum.
This Ganoderma lucidum is exactly the carnivorous Ganoderma lucidum given by Luo Mingyan. After listening to what Luo Mingyan said, Wei Zhong chose to plant it in a cave where the spiritual energy is more abundant.
If you push aside the Ganoderma lucidum bushes, you can see fish remains underneath. These are the Ganoderma fish that Wei Zhong caught from the lake and used for the purpose of breeding carnivorous Ganoderma lucidum.
Let it grow for a while, then you can start picking the ganoderma and try to brew green ganoderma wine.
Rather than upgrading his alchemy skills to the second level to refine Qi-integrating pills, Wei Zhong still believed that brewing Qingzhi wine would be successful faster.
After leaving the cave, Wei Zhong tidied up his appearance and sent a message to Xie Linghua, informing her that he would soon go to Qingmu Sect to present a gift and asked her to take care of the affairs of Black Lake Island.
He flew to the edge of the cliff again and collected the big gold and Yuanshui beads.
At this moment, the Yuanshui beads have become heavier after several days of condensation.
"After all, it condenses on its own, so the effect is still a little bit poor. If I can control it from the side, the condensation speed will be much faster."
"But this is not worth it. I still need to practice, including practicing magic and alchemy. I really don't have the energy to devote to this treasure."
"It doesn't matter if you take your time. Anyway, this thing won't be useful for a while."
Putting it away, Wei Zhong raised his hand and released a green boat. This was a second-level flying magic weapon that Wei Zhong bought from the Li family. It could use the cultivator's own spiritual power as well as spirit stones.
It is a level higher than the flying magic weapon that Luo Mingyan originally used.
Wei Zhong rode the green boat towards Qingmu Sect and arrived at his destination in just one day.
Looking at the bustling market ahead, Wei Zhong seemed to have returned to the scene when he came here when he was still refining Qi.
"When did Mingyue Market become so lively?"
After Wei Zhong entered, he found a place to stay and then visited Ning Cankun.
It was learned that this Jindan Ceremony not only attracted various forces around Qingmu Sect, but even many cultivators who were fighting in the Wanshou Mountains returned, all to take part in the excitement of this Jindan Ceremony.
'There will be an auction in three days.'
Wei Zhong was extremely excited after learning about this. There must be a lot of good things in the auction that can serve as a prelude to the Jindan Ceremony.
As a foundation-building cultivator, Wei Zhong finally has the opportunity to show his skills at the auction.
Taking advantage of the bustle of Mingyue Market, Wei Zhong inspected the surrounding stalls and found that there were quite a lot of good things.
The three important spiritual medicines needed for the Foundation Establishment Pill were all found here in large quantities.
"These are probably obtained from the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range."
Walking to a stall, Wei Zhong looked at the green bamboo sword on it with some surprise.
The green bamboo swords were arranged together as if they were carved out of a mold. It was the first time that Wei Zhong had seen such similar and almost identical magic swords.
"Senior, you want to buy a magic sword. My Green Bamboo Sword was made by Master Jiang of Hanzhu City and his disciples. It is of high quality and low price..."
Wei Zhong looked at the young stall owner and asked:
"Are you from Hanzhu City?"
The latter nodded.
Wei Zhong then asked a few more questions and learned that he was one of Master Jiang’s disciples, and that these magic swords were all made by him personally.
Wish you all a happy New Year!!!
