Whether one can refine the Holy Yuan Pill is usually used to judge whether an alchemist has reached the level of a fifth-grade great alchemist.
When Zhang Xiaozhu bluntly told the middle-aged man that he did not know how to refine the Holy Yuan Dan, some surprised voices immediately rang out from the crowd around him.
In their opinion, Zhang Xiaozu's alchemy skills are transcendent. Even if he has not yet reached the level of a grandmaster, he should be close to it. However, Zhang Xiaozu's words revealed that his alchemy skills have not yet reached the level of a fifth-level alchemist. This is far from what they imagined.
It's huge, so it's surprising.
Zhang Xiaozu bowed towards the balcony not far away and saluted, then looked at the middle-aged man asking for the elixir and said, "If you are not afraid of failure, I can try to make a furnace for you."
The middle-aged man's expression suddenly stiffened, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help but twitch.
This furnace of Saint Yuan Dan was a fortune that he had spent several years accumulating. How could he not be afraid of failure and just give it to Zhang Xiaozu for testing? It was simply a joke.
"???????????????Look upstairs over there. It's the great alchemist Zhao, and the Liu family's genius alchemist Liu Zhihuan."
Someone looked in the direction of Zhang Xiaozu's salute and saw several people from Yan Mingchao. However, he did not recognize Monk Susu from Yan Mingchao. He only recognized Zhao Dongqing and Liu Zhihuan, but these two people were enough to surprise him.
"Ah, then... that old lady seems to be... a worshiper of the Liu family, the great master of alchemy, Grand Master Shang Su Su Shang!"
Some people vaguely recognized Shang Susu, widened their eyes and screamed, with expressions of shock and admiration on their faces, as if they had seen a god.
"That's right, it's her. I had the honor to see her true appearance from a distance more than ten years ago."
"Ah, I'm so honored to be able to see her here!"
There was a cry of exclamation from the crowd.
Zhang Xiaozu was also surprised when he heard about the identity of the old woman upstairs.
Although yesterday he discovered that Monk Yan Mingchao was secretly observing him, and judged from Zhao Dongqing's extremely respectful attitude towards the two of them that their identities were not simple, he never thought that the other party turned out to be a great alchemy master.
"Grandmaster Shang Da is very respectful to the old man next to her. This shows that this old man's identity is even more extraordinary. I don't know which big shot of the Liu family he is."
Zhang Xiaozu muttered in his heart.
But after learning that the other party was from Liujiabao, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart, because he couldn't be sure whether the other party had good intentions or bad intentions.
He knew that his appearance had most likely threatened Liu Zhihuan's confidence in winning the first place in the alchemy competition, otherwise he would not have attracted the special attention of Liujiabao's alchemy master, which made him unable to be sure that the other party really wanted to teach him how to refine it.
Sheng Yuan Dan still pretended to teach him, but in fact he took the opportunity to use tricks to make him blow up the furnace and destroy his reputation, paving the way for Liu Zhihuan to win the first place in the Dan competition.
"I can afford to pay for a furnace of Sheng Yuan Dan. I just want to try to refine the Sheng Yuan Dan. Why not take this opportunity to test the attitude of the Liu family, whether they can tolerate a big belly or a small belly."
Zhang Xiaozu thought about it secretly.
Then he looked at the person asking for the elixir and said, "Please wait a moment. When I finish refining these several furnaces of elixirs, I will refine a furnace of Saint Yuan elixirs specifically for you."
"This..." The middle-aged man looked embarrassed and wanted to refuse.
In fact, before he came to see Zhang Xiaozu again, he had asked someone to contact a sixth-grade great alchemist. It was only because he saw that Zhang Xiaozu's charges were cheap and his skills were amazing that he queued up to ask for the pill. But now he heard that Zhang Xiaozu was not sure, and even
Since he doesn't know how to refine the Holy Yuan Dan, he naturally doesn't want to risk letting Zhang Xiaozu refine it.
Zhang Xiaozhu saw the man's dilemma, took out six middle-grade Saint Yuan Pills, and asked: "Is it okay for me to use these six Saint Yuan Pills to buy your elixir?"
The middle-aged man nodded hurriedly when he heard this, and immediately made a deal with Zhang Xiaozu, for fear that he would regret it.
A furnace of Saint Yuan Dan can produce up to six pills.
If he went to find the sixth-grade great alchemist to refine it, he would first have to give him a valuable meeting gift, and he would also have to pay for one Saint Yuan Dan, and there was no guarantee that six pills would be produced in one furnace.
Excluding the reward, he could only get five pieces, and the quality could not be guaranteed.
Zhang Xiaozu, on the other hand, directly took out six middle-grade Sheng Yuan Pills to buy his alchemy materials. He did not need to give a meeting gift or pay any reward, but he also got six Sheng Yuan Pills. This was a good thing that could not be found even with a lantern.
How could he refuse.
People around him cast envious glances at the middle-aged man, knowing that he had made a lot of money.
"Oh, it's Mr. Yan from Linlang Pavilion."
"Long time no see. I wonder if his alchemy skills have improved?"
When the old beggar saw Yan Mingchao, a smile appeared on his face.
He originally wanted to give some advice to Zhang Xiaopou, but after hearing Yan Mingchao's message to Zhang Xiaopou, he gave up the idea. He was not worried that Yan Mingchao would cause trouble to Zhang Xiaopou because he believed in the old scholar's professional spirit.
"Do any of you know the old man next to Grandmaster Shang Da?"
"I haven't seen him before, I don't know him."
"It seems that he is not the master of Liujiabao."
Some people in the crowd were whispering about Yan Mingchao's identity, but no one recognized him.
Although Yan Mingchao's name is resounding throughout the world, he stays in Linlang Pavilion all year round and has not traveled around the world for hundreds of years, so very few people know him.
Zhang Xiaozu finished refining several other furnaces of pills, then grabbed his own furnace in front of him, then looked at Yan Mingchao and saluted, indicating that he was ready.
"Deploy the rising sun array at the earthquake position due east, and the eye of the array will fall three feet away from the heart of the furnace."
Yan Mingchao's voice rang in Zhang Xiaozu's ears.
Zhang Xiaozu immediately took out the formation flag and set up the formation as instructed.
"Gen position, looking back at the thick earth formation, the formation's eye falls two feet and seven feet outside the heart of the furnace."
"Kan position, three-phase Kuishui formation, the eye of the formation falls three feet and five feet outside the heart of the furnace."
"Fuck position..."
Yan Mingchao sent a message and directed Zhang Xiaopou to arrange a formation in each of the Bagua directions, and finally laid out a formation of Hunyuangui on the bottom of the Dan Furnace.
"This boy's formation techniques are extremely skillful, and he grasps the position and distance accurately. He obviously knows these nine magic formations very well. It can be seen that he has either arranged them like this many times before and tried to refine the Saint Yuan Dan. Or he is extremely knowledgeable in battle tactics."
Yan Mingchao stroked his beard lightly and secretly praised Zhang Xiaopou's neat formation techniques.
Although Zhang Xiaozu had never refined the Holy Yuan Dan, the jade slip given to him by Fufeng recorded the method of refining the Holy Yuan Dan. He tried it more than once I have studied and simulated the alchemy process in my mind, so I have a very good understanding of the nine magic circles that need to be arranged to refine the Holy Yuan Dan.
However, his formation skills are not bad either.
boom!
As soon as the nine formations are activated, the power of the five elements suddenly arises, wind, rain, thunder and lightning are intertwined, and the energy of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers gathers from all directions.
The crowd of onlookers exclaimed and were forced to retreat by the powerful aura.
He retreated a distance of twenty or thirty feet and then stood firm.
"Start a fire and burn the furnace."
"The earthquake position is slowly burned with clear fire, the Gen position is given third-level flames, and the Qian position is given Dangyang fire..."
"Spring Thunder Spell, ironing the furnace body with the power of thunder and lightning."
"First pour a triangular amount of spiritual liquid and use the landslide curse to disperse the spiritual liquid into mist."
"When the temperature of the furnace reaches nine o'clock, pour in the twelve-pointed spiritual liquid..."
Yan Mingchao's voice kept ringing in Zhang Xiaozu's ears, explaining every step in great detail.
While Zhang Xiaozu was doing what he was told, he was secretly thankful. He thought that it was a good thing that he had studied hard with the old beggar for several months, otherwise he wouldn't even understand some of the special terms for alchemy, and he would have been able to just stand there and scratch his head. .
The steps for making alchemy described by Yan Mingchao were exactly the same as those in Zhang Xiaozhu's jade slips at first, but in the middle part, there was a sudden change.
Zhang Xiaozu sensed something was wrong and subconsciously became vigilant.
But just as he was slightly dazed for a moment, the movements of his hands were a little slower, resulting in a lag deviation in the control of the fire and the furnace.
"Concentrate and don't get distracted!"
Yan Mingchao's scolding immediately rang in Zhang Xiaozu's ears.
