Chapter 166 Dange Test
After listening to Baili Wen's explanation, Xiao Lin generally understood that if he wanted to get the recipe for the elixir, he might really have to become an alchemist.
Although the outer disciples can only help the real alchemist with odd jobs and do some simple labor work, they should also be able to come into contact with the alchemy recipe. And for Xiao Lin, as long as he has the elixir recipe of the Five Elements Spiritual Pill, he can do it in a short time. It is not difficult for him to become a true alchemist.
Of course, he did not intend to be so high-profile. As long as he could obtain the recipe for the Five Elements Spiritual Pill, he would naturally refine the Five Elements Spiritual Pill first and raise his level to the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Stage.
After learning about the location of the Alchemy Pavilion on Qingzhu Peak with Bailiwen, Xiao Lin couldn't wait. After chatting with Bailiwen for a while, Xiao Lin made an excuse to leave.
There are many small palaces standing on the mountainside of Qingzhu Peak. In Xiao Lin's opinion, most of these palaces are as empty as the wooden houses at the foot of the mountain.
Although there is a special spiritual energy input channel in the cave of the Jindan Patriarch at the top of Qingzhu Peak, the inner disciples in the Foundation Establishment Period obviously do not have such treatment, so the number of Foundation Establishment Stage monks on Qingzhu Peak is pitiful.
In front of these palaces, there is a small square and several larger palaces. One of them is the Dharma transmission building. In the last few days of each month, the sect will send inner disciples to sit in it.
Answer the problems encountered by the outer disciples in their cultivation. Besides, there is a small academy next to the teaching building. There are at least a dozen people reading and reading in it. This makes Xiao Lin extremely surprised. It seems that this world of cultivation is like his own. There are also many such semi-illiterates.
And seeing this, Xiao Lin's heart moved. He thought of the "Qing Yan Bao Seal" that was still in the spirit wood space. The ancient seals on it were obscure and difficult to understand, and many of them he didn't recognize.
It seemed that he had to come here to study hard when he had time, but Xiao Lin put this matter aside for the time being. He looked at the innermost corner of the square, where a two-story attic stood.
On the plaque on the attic, there are two ancient seal characters [Dan Pavilion] with dancing dragons and phoenixes.
A smile suddenly appeared on Xiao Lin's face. Xiao Lin went straight into the Dan Pavilion. After entering the Dan Pavilion, he was surprised to find that there was a sandalwood table in the innermost part of the Dan Pavilion. At this moment, a person was lying down, sleeping soundly. , and the snoring is loud.
Xiao Lin suddenly looked helpless. He walked to the table, lightly knocked on the corner of the table, and called softly: "This is senior brother."
The man suddenly raised his head in excitement, with glistening saliva hanging from the corner of his mouth.
"Have you eaten?" He smacked the bar in his mouth a few times and muttered something that left Xiao Lin speechless.
At this time, the man also saw Xiao Lin clearly, with a slightly embarrassed look on his face. He quietly wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with his sleeves, which made Xiao Lin's mouth twitch.
"Hehe, a chore like Dan Pavilion is the most boring. I can't practice and have no one to chat with, so I can only sleep out of boredom. Does this junior brother want to test his talent in alchemy?" The man looked at Xiao Lin with a full face. Smiling, there was no sign of dissatisfaction with Xiao Lin for disturbing his sleep.
"Can alchemy talent be detected?" Xiao Lin was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then asked in surprise.
"Hehe, talent cannot be measured naturally, but the mule is pulled out by the horse. The Dan Pavilion test in our Dancao Mountain is very simple. Huh? Could it be that my junior brother just joined the sect and he doesn't even know about the Dan Pavilion test? ?”
Xiao Lin touched his cheek helplessly and nodded. In this sect, a newcomer like him who seriously lacks common sense is indeed very eye-catching.
"It doesn't matter. In fact, the Dan Pavilion test is very simple. I will provide two materials for refining the Marrow Cleansing Pill. As long as the junior brother can refine a batch of Marrow Cleansing Pills within the specified time, it will be considered passed. And only Only by passing the test of the Alchemy Pavilion and becoming an alchemy boy can you assist the alchemist in refining various elixirs. It is said that our Dancao Mountain has a huge demand for alchemy boys during this period. Unfortunately, there are only a few who can pass the test. Ah." The man complained, then looked at Xiao Lin, as if waiting for his answer.
When Xiao Lin heard this, he fell into deep thought. Originally, after hearing what Baili Wen said, he thought that he only needed to refine a batch of Spirit-accumulating Pills to become an alchemy boy. When it came to refining the Spirit-accumulating Pills, he was Full of confidence, he now has at least a 70% success rate in refining the Spirit-Absorbing Pill.
But when it comes to this marrow cleansing pill, he is a little unsure of his level. This marrow cleansing pill is also a first-level elixir, and it is relatively poor among the first-level elixirs. He also knows the refining process and the elixir recipe. , easier than Yunling Pill.
However, Xiao Lin had never refined this marrow-cleansing pill. After all, if the refining failed, he would not be able to participate in the Dan Pavilion's test again within three years, so he hesitated.
"Senior brother, I wonder if it is possible to replace the refining of the Marrow Cleansing Pill with the Spirit-Absorbing Pill?" After thinking about it, Xiao Lin looked at the person in front of him and said.
Hearing this, not only was there no dissatisfaction on the man's face, he also showed a smile: "Hey, junior brother also knows that the Spiritual Mist Grass needed to refine the Spirit-Absorbing Pill is much more precious than the Red Blood Grass used to refine the Marrow-Cleaning Pill. , Although our sect has slightly more resources than those of casual cultivators, we still need to save costs. "
After a pause, the man continued: "But after all, refining the Ling Yun Dan represents a higher level of alchemy. If junior brother can bear this part of the difference by himself."
"It's natural. Junior brother, I will bear the difference myself." Upon hearing this, Xiao Lin took out a small cloth bag from the storage bag and placed it on the table in front of the man.
The man picked up the bag, and after scanning it with his spiritual consciousness, his face was suddenly filled with a smile.
"Junior brother is also a cheerful person. In this case, please go in. The first room on the left contains the earth fire and the alchemy furnace. Although according to the sect's rules, the storage bag must be checked in advance. The main reason is that To prevent cheating, my junior brother is so sincere that he wouldn’t do such a thing even if he thought about it, so there is no need to check the storage bag.”
Xiao Lin heard this, smiled and saluted the man, and then walked towards the first room on the left.
The moment he turned around, the smile on Xiao Lin's face disappeared. He finally understood that the man looked carefree and seemed a bit naive and cute, but Xiao Lin naturally didn't think so.
After seeing the newcomer's identity, this person obviously deliberately took out the Marrow Cleansing Pill to embarrass him. Although the Marrow Cleansing Pill is easier to refine than the Spirit-enhancing Pill, very few people can refine this Marrow Cleansing Pill. , it can be regarded as a very niche elixir.
After all, the art of alchemy still relies on proficiency. Even if it is easy to refine the Marrow Cleansing Pill, for Xiao Lin, it is definitely not as easy as refining the Spirit-Absorbing Pill.
The difference that the man mentioned was obviously pocketed by him, but Xiao Lin didn't care. As long as he could pass the Dan Pavilion test, a mere thirty low-grade spiritual stones would be nothing.
Entering the house, he found that there was another stone room in the inner room. Xiao Lin opened the door of the stone room and walked in. He found that the stone room was indeed fully equipped. Not only were the ground fire and alchemy furnace ready, but also the wooden door on the side. There are also several jade boxes neatly placed on the shelf.
The names of the spiritual herbs in the jade boxes are also written on the wooden shelves under these jade boxes.
Xiao Lin did not start refining the Spirit-accumulating Pill. Instead, he walked to the wooden frame, took out the spiritual herbs on it from the jade box, and placed them one by one in front of him.
He looked at the Black Iron Pill Furnace in front of him with a thoughtful expression on his face.
...
The next day, Xiao Lin walked out of the stone chamber and returned to the Dan Pavilion. The outer disciple on duty was obviously waiting for Xiao Lin.
Seeing Xiao Lin coming out, his face was immediately filled with smiles.
"It seems that junior brother has already refined the Spirit-accumulating Pill?"
Xiao Lin looked at this person with a strange expression, but nodded and put the jade bottle in his hand in front of him.
The man picked up the jade bottle, opened the cork, smelled it, and looked inside again, with a slightly surprised expression on his face: "Even if ordinary people can successfully refine it, they can only produce five elixirs in one furnace at most, but the junior brother actually Six pills were produced, which is already an excellent result in our Dan Pavilion assessment."
With that said, the man took out a palm-sized wooden token from behind the counter and handed it to Xiao Lin.
After Xiao Lin took the token, he hugged his fists and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute."
Hearing this, Xiao Lin turned around and looked at the man in surprise. The man was still smiling, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"According to the rules of our Dan Pavilion test, senior brother, I still have to check my junior brother's storage bag. Once I find that the spiritual elixir submitted by my junior brother has been prepared long ago, I will be punished as cheating, and the Dan Pavilion will be permanently canceled. Test eligibility.”
Hearing this, a coldness flashed in Xiao Lin's eyes, but he didn't say anything. He took off the storage bag from his waist and threw it away.
Seeing this, the man showed a slightly surprised expression. He picked up the bag in front of him and checked it with his spiritual sense. He found that in addition to a few mid-to-high-level magic weapons, there was also a small pile of ordinary weapon refining materials. In addition, there are no materials for refining the spirit-acquiring pill.
"Hey, junior brother, don't be offended. This is the test rule of Dan Pavilion. Senior brother, I have no choice." The surprise in the man's eyes flashed away, and he showed a simple smile again, and handed the storage bag to Xiao Lin.
Xiao Lin nodded expressionlessly, took the bag and left the Dan Pavilion.
After leaving the Dan Pavilion, Xiao Lin's expressionless face suddenly darkened, and his eyes flashed with cold murderous intent. But soon, Xiao Lin's expression returned to calmness again, and he looked towards him without looking back. Flying away under the mountain.
After returning to the foot of the mountain, Xiao Lin did not return to his residence. Instead, he looked at the sky and flew out of the mountain. With this alchemy boy's token, he could pick up some of the sect members. The alchemy task has been issued.
Xiao Lin first went to the Merit Hall of Qingdan Peak. There was a two-year task of refining the elixir in the task list. Xiao Lin took it without hesitation.
An hour later, Xiao Lin appeared at the foot of Qinghuo Peak. Qinghuo Peak was indeed very different from Qingzhu Peak. As soon as he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Xiao Lin saw many Qi Refining Stage outer disciples coming and going.
The aura of Qinghuo Peak was indeed very rich, at least twice as rich as that of Qingzhu Peak. However, Xiao Lin was not here to feel the aura here. He flew straight towards the halfway up the mountainside of Qinghuo Peak.
