Chapter 490: Retreat to make elixirs and leave
After leaving Tianyun Pavilion, Chen Xuan did not rush back to Tongyou Valley.
Instead, go somewhere else and continue your shopping spree.
This time he left, he didn’t know when he would be able to return to Yuling Sect.
While he still has some time, Chen Xuan plans to make some good preparations.
At the very least, he had to leave a large number of elixirs specifically for cultivation for his confidants such as Liu Lan.
In addition, we also need to select some high-quality monsters for the monster business in Tongyou Valley.
Don't underestimate these things, they seem very simple.
But after all this trouble, more than half of Chen Xuan's spirit stones were consumed.
Chen Xuan didn't feel any pain at all.
After everything was done, they left Lingxiao Market.
A few days later, Chen Xuan successfully returned to Tongyou Valley.
hum!
Chen Xuan waved his hand and directly activated the protective formation in the cave.
After a while, Chen Xuan arrived at the Beast Taming Tower.
call!
All around, vast spiritual energy was rapidly gathering.
Chen Xuan was not busy practicing. Instead, he went to the place where the Ten-Pattern Spirit Python and the Purple-Winged Spirit Bat were practicing and checked them carefully.
After confirming that the two monsters had not yet awakened from their deep sleep, but that there were no problems with their training, Chen Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Within half a year, I must go to the Black Wood Spirit Cliff on the border of Caiyun Country. Although the journey is not far, the time is a bit tight."
"Luckily, the Beast Taming Tower has the miraculous effect of speeding up time. Otherwise, it would be difficult for me to handle so many things in such a short time."
Chen Xuan muttered softly and took out all his gains this time.
The Soul-Cangling Cauldron, the Falling Cloud Grass, the Fire Cloud Sword, the Red Dragon Knife… were placed one by one in front of him.
Chen Xuan ignored everything else and took the Soul-Cangling Cauldron in his hand.
hum!
Chen Xuan pointed his finger in the air, and the essence of Li Fire quickly appeared under the Cangling Cauldron.
Almost instantly, Chen Xuan's spiritual consciousness also attached to the Soul Storage Cauldron.
An old aura also emanated from the Soul Cauldron.
After a moment, Chen Xuan was surprised to find that the ancient alchemy cauldron, Cangling Ding, was much easier to control than he had imagined.
Moreover, when he tried to control the Cangling Ding to refine the elixir, not a single spiritual energy leaked from the Cangling Ding.
This also means that using the Soul-Covering Cauldron can better block the loss of medicinal essence.
It makes it easier for Chen Xuan to refine high-quality pills.
"Haha, I really found a bargain this time. An ancient alchemy cauldron of this quality would be worth at least six million mid-grade spirit stones even if it were sold in other shops."
"If it were put up for auction, it would definitely be the highlight."
"This time, Mo Hai from Tianyun Pavilion offered a price of 1,200,000 mid-grade spirit stones. I really made a mistake."
Chen Xuan laughed happily.
Even though he seemed to have suffered a loss when selling the rare treasures, he still got the better deal overall.
After a while, when Chen Xuan was completely familiar with the Cangling Ding, he selected a batch of spiritual medicines and hurried to make pills.
Because it was also the first time for Chen Xuan to control the ancient alchemy cauldron.
I don't fully understand the various functions of the ancient alchemy cauldron.
To be on the safe side, Chen Xuan planned to use the Cangling Ding to refine some elixirs that would help improve the cultivation of cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
hum!
The moment the Soul-Covering Cauldron was activated, the Essence of Fire began to burn wildly beneath the Soul-Covering Cauldron.
In just a moment, the temperature in the Soul Cauldron rose rapidly.
Chen Xuan was not in a hurry either.
After his divine sense was completely attached to the Soul-Storing Cauldron and he made sure that the temperature at every location in the Cauldron had reached the optimum temperature for refining pills, Chen Xuan took out one of the prepared spiritual medicines and threw it into the cauldron.
call!
The elixir was quickly refined under the terrifying high temperature.
The impurities in the elixir were eliminated in an instant.
Only the extremely pure essence of the medicinal power was completely locked up and remained at the bottom of the Soul Storage Cauldron, spinning around non-stop.
Chen Xuan was concentrating on controlling the Cangling Ding and feeling the changes in the Ding. When he saw that 80% of the medicinal essence of the elixir he had just thrown into the Ding was completely retained in the Ding, he couldn't help but smile.
“Haha, it’s worthy of being an ancient alchemy cauldron. This method of sealing off spiritual power and reducing the loss of medicinal essence is simply not comparable to an ordinary alchemy cauldron.”
Chen Xuan was overjoyed.
Next, he followed the procedure and threw the prepared elixir into the Soul Storage Cauldron.
boom!
The golden essence of the Li Fire was burning madly beneath the Soul Storage Cauldron.
The temperature in the Soul Cauldron is also rising.
But the Hidden Spirit Cauldron itself did not change at all.
After just a cup of tea, a strong medicinal aroma quickly emanated from the Cangling Cauldron.
A five-colored light also quickly appeared above the Cangling Cauldron.
"It's done!"
Chen Xuan looked delighted.
After uttering a spell, the lid of the Cangling Cauldron popped open with a bang.
Soon, the twelve pills inside were skillfully put away by Chen Xuan.
"They are all top-grade elixirs."
Chen Xuan smiled with satisfaction after checking the pill he had just refined.
But at this moment, he was not busy refining the second batch of pills.
Instead, he carefully recalled how he controlled the Soul-Cadre.
After carefully recalling the small details that he had not yet noticed, Chen Xuan began to refine the second batch of pills.
This time, Chen Xuan's speed in refining the elixir was obviously much slower.
Especially when tiny flaws appeared for the first time, Chen Xuan paid special attention.
About an hour later, the second batch of pills was successfully produced.
This time, the twelve pills are top-grade pills.
However, Chen Xuan was still not busy continuing to refine the elixir. Instead, he continued to recall the minor mistakes he had made in the process of refining the elixir just now, and made targeted corrections.
As a result, Chen Xuan's speed in refining pills slowed down a lot.
However, he became more and more proficient in controlling the Soul-Covering Cauldron.
After waiting in the Beast Taming Tower for a month, when the elixirs in front of Chen Xuan had piled up like a mountain, Chen Xuan finally stopped.
"After these days of refining pills, I have finally mastered the Hidden Spirit Cauldron to perfection."
"If that's the case, I should also refine the Snow Plum Pill for Fairy Bingyu."
Chen Xuan smiled slightly.
After a short rest, he took out the only alchemy material given to him by the Ice Jade Fairy.
After some selection, Chen Xuan carefully studied the recipe of Snow Plum Pill again. Only after he had fully understood all the steps of refining Snow Plum Pill did he start to refine the pill.
hum!
The Hidden Spirit Cauldron was activated again by Chen Xuan.
However, this time Chen Xuan looked extremely relaxed.
After controlling the Cangling Ding continuously for so many days, Chen Xuan has become very proficient in controlling the Cangling Ding.
In addition, his alchemy skills are very good.
Even refining the Snow Plum Pill, a pill that helps increase the probability of condensing a Nascent Soul, seems very easy.
call!
A moment later, the heavenly fire beneath the Soul Storage Cauldron grew rapidly.
The golden flames completely enveloped the Soul Cauldron.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan calmly cast a series of spells to control the temperature of the flame.
Only after the temperature reached the optimum level for refining the Snow Plum Pill did Chen Xuan follow the procedures and throw the spiritual medicine he had selected long ago into the Spirit Storage Cauldron.
Wow!
The temperature radiating from the essence of Lihuo increased rapidly at this moment.
The temperature in the Soul Cauldron was also rising rapidly.
The spiritual medicine thrown into the Cangling Ding by Chen Xuan was refined in an instant, turning into an extremely pure medicinal essence and falling to the bottom of the Cangling Ding.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan calmly threw the second spiritual medicine into the Soul Cauldron.
……
Two hours later, a five-colored glow emerged from above the Soul-Cangling Cauldron.
Chen Xuan looked overjoyed and performed magic spells one after another with ease.
The lid of the Cangling Cauldron also popped open at this moment.
The twelve snow plum pills in a furnace came out one after another in an instant.
"receive!"
Chen Xuan made a hand gesture and easily put the twelve Snow Plum Pills into the jade bottle.
After a careful inspection, it was found that each Snow Plum Pill had four dan patterns on it.
It is the sign of a top-grade elixir.
And on each snow plum flower, there is a small pattern that looks like a blooming snow plum.
Looks extremely eye-catching.
"There is a snow plum pattern on each pill. Could this be the origin of the Snow Plum Pill?"
Chen Xuan looked curious.
After studying it carefully for a while, he kept ten top-grade Snow Plum Pills and put them into the jade bottle.
He put away the two extra ones separately.
After doing all this, Chen Xuan had an idea and took out a jade talisman for communication.
After sending a message to Fairy Bingyu, he continued to busy himself with his own affairs.
Next, Chen Xuan still has a lot of things to deal with.
Be familiar with the Fire Cloud Sword and Fire Dragon Knife, refine elixirs to prevent Yin energy from entering the body, prepare healing pills, etc.
Another year passed in the Beast Taming Tower before Chen Xuan finally finished dealing with all the matters.
Three days later, Fairy Bingyu also came in person from Caiyun Gate.
After receiving the Snow Plum Pill that Chen Xuan had made for her, she thanked him profusely and returned to Caiyun Sect to go into seclusion and strive for the Nascent Soul stage.
After seeing off the Ice Jade Fairy, Chen Xuan did not continue his retreat.
Instead, he took this opportunity to gather his confidants including Liu Lan.
He gave the large amount of elixirs he had refined and the various spiritual beasts he had purchased to Liu Lan and asked him to deal with them.
After finishing all these, Chen Xuan went to True Man Huo Ya and took the Heavenly Demon Armor and Ice and Snow Shield. Then Chen Xuan packed up and turned into a stream of light and disappeared in the Yuling Sect.
However, the news received by the cultivators of the Yuling Sect was that Chen Xuan had begun to practice in seclusion again.
As for when to leave the country, no one can tell for sure.
"Now, the six-month deadline is not far away. However, if I use the Purple Lightning Golden Peng to travel, I can catch up."
Chen Xuan muttered softly.
He released his divine sense and checked carefully, making sure that there were no other cultivators nearby. Only then did he release the Purple Lightning Golden Peng to lead the way.
Boom!
Along with a thunderous sound, a purple golden roc several feet in size disappeared into the void at a rapid speed along with the thunder.
In just half a month, this purple golden roc appeared in front of an extremely dark cliff near the misty snow-capped mountains.
Soon, Chen Xuan jumped off the Purple Lightning Golden Peng.
The divine consciousness also spread out.
After a moment, no one knew what Chen Xuan had discovered, but he suddenly showed a look of joy.
