Chapter 58 Erecting a Monument
Gaisu'e saw that Gu Chengyu wanted to speak but was afraid to speak. He also knew that the other person was about to dig a hole out of embarrassment with his toes, so he quickly approached him and patted his shoulder gently to indicate that he should wait.
Gu Chengyu was embarrassed to leave at this time, and he was reluctant to leave. After entering the realm of earthly immortal cultivation, it was difficult for him to make any progress, so he began to hope that Alchemy Road would help him make another breakthrough.
But after really studying the way of alchemy in depth, Gu Chengyu discovered that the way of alchemy is much more complicated than imagined. Even if he has a good talent in alchemy, it is not easy to achieve a breakthrough in cultivation by relying on the path of alchemy. Simple things.
Cao Zhen carefully controlled the alchemy furnace with a series of alchemy techniques. The next step was to pay boring attention and adjust the furnace fire. After a month, he would pull the Dragon Tiger Pill out of the alchemy furnace.
A furnace of Dragon and Tiger Pill entered the refining state, and Cao Zhen was not idle. He got up and went to look for medicinal materials again. He planned to refine two more furnaces of Deceiving Heaven Pill and Mending Heaven Pill and take them out to Lingxi, Beiyan, and Ziyu, so that they could It is also useful to complete a big breakthrough first, whether it is to reassure yourself when you have to go out next, or to rearrange the positions of Baifeng after a few days.
Cao Zhen was thinking in his heart as he got up to look for medicinal materials. When he looked up, he saw that the deacon of the Five Elements Dan Land and the elder of the Palm Land had not left yet, and he was also stunned.
"What's wrong with you two?"
Facing Cao Zhen's questions, Gu Chengyu and Gaisu'e were embarrassed.
Not long ago, I just finished pretending to be an expert with the peak master of the Four Treasures Peak. When I turned around, I was shocked by the alchemy skills of this peak master.
"I heard that the cultivation level of the Four Treasures Peak Master is now like the Five Bridges?" Gu Chengyu thought for a moment before speaking, and decided to use Cao Zhen's low cultivation level as a breakthrough to draw closer the relationship between the two parties.
"Isn't it written in my materials?" Cao Zhen was anxious to find materials for his disciples to make elixirs. When he heard the other party asked a question that he knew he was asking, he didn't pay much attention to it and just responded casually.
Gu Chengyu and Gaisu'e looked at each other silently, each seeing the other's doubts. After all, they were the persons in charge of Qianlong Temple's Five Elements Dandi. People who came here on weekdays were those with high status in the outside world, and Just be polite.
"This man is a bit arrogant..." Gu Chengyu was somewhat dissatisfied and used voice transmission to express his views to Gaisu'e secretly.
'Is he really capable...' Gaisu'e sighed and responded via voice transmission, 'Just now he used a batch of materials for refining pills, not to mention three batches of them, and all of them were top-notch. ’
The last trace of dissatisfaction in Gu Chengyu's heart disappeared without a trace with Gesu'e's introduction.
‘Elder, are we just standing like this? ’ Gaisua raised a new question.
'if not? ’ Gu Chengyu replied angrily using voice transmission, ‘I have been trapped on the first level of the Earthly Immortal Realm for many years. Even this Yin Yang Ghost Pill may not be able to help me break through the realm. Maybe my destiny lies with this peak master! I'll wait for him to finish his work and then flatter him again! ’
Gaisu'e didn't expect Elder Gu to speak so straightforwardly in order to make a breakthrough.
Cao Zhen found the medicinal materials and immediately opened the second alchemy furnace and started refining the elixir.
The two people who were chatting secretly were puzzled. Why were they still refining elixirs?
After Cao Zhen stabilized the second furnace of pills, he opened the third furnace of pills...
what's the situation? Gu Chengyu and Gaisu'e felt a little confused. In the past, most of the people who came here only made one furnace of pills. Occasionally, some people made two furnaces of pills, but that was just after refining one furnace and then another. What does it mean to directly refine three furnaces? Are you busy?
Refining elixirs is very complicated, and it is extremely easy to make mistakes in the process. Often, if you are not careful, the entire pot of pills will be ruined, so it is usually done per person...
Before Gu Chengyu could recover from his confusion, Cao Zhen had already started refining the fourth furnace of pills...
It is not that there are people who refine two furnaces of pills at the same time in the Baifeng Sect, but there are people who refine four furnaces of elixirs at the same time... There has never been anyone in the Baifeng Sect since its founding.
Cao Zhen got four alchemy furnaces in one breath, and began to focus on the fifth alchemy furnace for a moment, and then began to frantically take out a large amount of medicinal materials from each medicine box.
Gu Chengyu and Gaisu'e were in shock. When they saw Cao Zhen snatching the astringent medicinal materials like they were stealing from him, they couldn't help but ask: "Peak Master Cao, what are you going to do?"
####
"Yu Haitang lost?"
There is a signboard of Demingtang hanging in Qianlong Temple. Three young people are sitting on futon paper embroidered with [Heaven], [Earth] and [People].
The speaker was the young man sitting on the futon with the word "天" in the center.
"After practicing in Qianlong Temple for more than a month, I actually lost to a newcomer. It's really embarrassing for Qianlong Temple."
The young man sitting on the futon with the word "ground" closed his eyes and slowly expressed his opinion.
The young man sitting on the [人] character smiled softly, stood up from the futon with his hands on his knees, gently tapped the folding fan in his hand on the palm of his other hand, and said, "Two senior brothers, what do you say to me?" With just one word, I, Situ Fengzhan, will break my leg."
The young man who was meditating on the [天] futon raised a very subtle smile on his lips and said, "I'll trouble you to go there this time. If there is a next time, I'll go there for my brother."
"Next time?" Situ Fengzhan said with a dumbfounded expression, "Brother, don't try to trick me. This is Qianlong Temple. There are very few people who practice here, like Yu Haitang. Oh! I'm so rude. , Junior Brother should not talk about Senior Brother Zichen’s sweetheart like this."
The young man with the character [地] sighed: "Junior brother, don't tease us as brothers. This matter concerns all of our disciples who come to Qianlong Temple to practice. We also ask junior brother Fengzhan to go back as soon as possible."
"That's fine." Situ Fengzhan sighed, and the folding fan in his hand unfolded in the air and slowly enlarged to the size of a table. He jumped on the folding fan and sat cross-legged and said, "Logically speaking, let's go to Cao Zhen for this matter. There is no need for Qianlong Sancai to take action."
"This Situ is walking too fast..." Zichen, whose name is "地", shook his head and chuckled, "I don't even know where Cao Zhen is and what he is doing."
"What are you doing?" Cao Zhen answered as he continued to put medicinal materials into the alchemy furnace, "Of course it's for alchemy. Are you worried that I can't open so many alchemy furnaces at the same time? Don't worry, I can open five furnaces at the same time. The medicinal materials are ruined.”
Gu Chengyu and Gaisua began to have deep self-doubts. Could it be that their abilities were too poor? Do you really have no talent for alchemy? Baifeng Zong chose himself to be the mentor here. Did he make the wrong choice?
Cao Zhen finished working on the fifth furnace of elixirs and found that he had refined more elixirs. If he only refined the fourth furnace of elixirs, he would still have free time to walk around quickly and maybe find something suitable for him in other places. .
Now, the next step is to keep an eye on these five alchemy furnaces, and insert a few alchemy techniques from time to time to control these five alchemy furnaces. The rest is boring waiting.
"Peak Master Cao..." Seeing Cao Zhen stop, Gu Chengyu stepped forward to talk, "I have some connection with your master Li Changfeng. This time, you saved me with this death elixir. It seems that I have a close relationship with Sibaofeng."
Cao Zhen was a little panicked. When he inherited this body, he knew that the memory was somewhat incomplete. Suddenly he heard someone say that he was an old acquaintance with his master, but there was no such information in his memory.
But the other party looked at him like this. Cao Zhen knew that he couldn't just look at him stupidly, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "I became enlightened relatively late. Master has been busy with my enlightenment when he was alive, so I didn't have time to talk about it. The origins of our predecessors.”
When Cao Zhen said this, Gu Chengyu's old face couldn't help but blush. Fortunately, he had rich experience in martial arts. He immediately said: "Back then, when your master was still in the Taoist Academy, I went to the Taoist Academy to give lectures. Your master was also present that day. I It was immediately obvious at that time that your master was promising! He eventually became a peak master! He also taught an outstanding peak master like Peak Master Cao..."
"Senior has good eyesight."
While Cao Zhen was praising him, he felt in his heart that the elder of the land was so shameless! Was it because he had a chance encounter with his cheap master in the Taoist Academy and they became very close to each other?
"I think the Peak Master's cultivation level is not very high." Gu Chengyu raised his hand to stroke his beard, trying his best to show off the temperament of a senior, with a hint of willingness to give guidance to the younger generation in his words, "I am now in the fairyland. Cultivation, I can be considered to have some experience in cultivation..."
Cao Zhen felt a little more happy in his heart. He thought that he had refined too much alchemy and couldn't leave here. He couldn't go to Qianlong Temple, one of the cores of Baifeng Sect, to walk around. He didn't expect that someone would be willing to spend more time with him. Have a chat.
Seeing Cao Zhen's silence, Gu Chengyu thought that he had hit on the other party's weakness, and immediately said: "I have some connections with your master, so naturally I am willing to give you some advice. But this Yin Yang Ghost Pill..."
Cao Zhen finally understood why the other party had never said this to him and was still telling him this in a roundabout way. It turned out to be a processing fee? It's a pity that this elixir conflicts with the physical constitution of several of his disciples, so it is useless to take it.
Cao Zhen turned around and gave several pill formulas to each of the pill furnaces, and continued, "My disciples at Sibaofeng are all ancient useless immortal bodies, and it is difficult for their skills to make up for it. If the elders have suitable magical powers, everyone at Sibaofeng will be grateful. All."
A smile suddenly appeared on Gu Chengyu's face. For a monk with earthly immortal cultivation, who doesn't have a few proud magical powers? If a magical power can be exchanged for the Yin Yang Ghost Pill and a closer relationship with the master of the Four Treasures Peak, it will be worth it!
"I once traveled out and found a fragment of a magical power among the secrets of the Immortal Tomb, called "Erecting a Monument"..."
Cao Zhen inherited all Zhang Daoling's experience. Since he came to this world, he has never seen any method of cultivating immortals or magical powers that he didn't know. Suddenly he heard a name that he had never heard of before, and he couldn't help but be curious.
When Gu Chengyu saw Cao Zhen, who had always been calm and composed when he came here, the expression on his face changed for the first time. He was afraid that the other party would think that he did not want to use his excellent magical powers because of the fragments he said, so he quickly said: "I studied hard and found that Although this "Erecting a Monument" is a fragment, it is as vast as the sea. I am afraid that I will not be able to complete it in my lifetime. As for the power of magical powers, this is the magical power that I have the most."
Cao Zhen was originally curious that he didn't know about the magical power "Erecting a Monument". Hearing what Gu Chengyu said, he became even more interested. For a monk from the Earthly Immortal Realm to say such words, this magical power might be a bit interesting.
Without saying much, Gu Chengyu took out a jade talisman from his scabbard and gave it away.
Cao Zhen knew that this was a jade talisman that stored magical powers, so he took it and activated it to read it. This "Erecting a Monument" was indeed incomplete, even the general outline of the opening chapter was incomplete. Just being able to see this magical power can lead to the creation of the Dragon Elephant Monument. , Mountains and Rivers Monument, Three Worlds Monument, Humanity Monument, Heavenly Dao Monument.
At present, there are only two remaining chapters of "Erecting a Monument". The first one should be more than 80% original. As for the second one, only the first few sentences of the second chapter are probably original, and the rest should be researched by Gu Chengyu himself.
After just a few glances, Cao Zhen felt like he was getting caught up in it, and then he realized that what Gu Chengyu said about being as vast as the sea was indeed true.
Cao Zhen knew that if he hadn't had Zhang Daoling's experience in cultivating immortals, he would not be able to understand "Erecting a Monument" at all, let alone being able to quickly gain insights and feel Gu Chengyu's deduction after reading the second chapter. Has flaws.
