Chapter Fifty-Three: Xin Rou's Invitation
"Alchemist?"
Yu Xiao smiled bitterly in his heart. Although he knew how to make alchemy, he really didn't dare to claim to be an alchemist at the moment.
Because he only knows how to refine Qi Ji Dan, and is preparing to try refining the Shengmai Dan. Even if he masters it, he will only be able to refine these two types.
If you tell anyone, other alchemists will laugh to death.
"Ahem, I'm not an alchemist. I just have some research on the art of alchemy." Yu Xiao replied calmly, with a calm look that showed no trace of what was in his mind.
This made Xin Rou even more confident in her guess. Yu Xiao knew how to make alchemy, and was still trying to refine such a complicated elixir. He was not an alchemist. This guy was too humble.
"Master Lu is really good at joking. Since he knows the art of alchemy, he is an alchemist. I wonder how many spiritual herbs on the list Master Lu needs?" Xin Rouxiao asked.
Yu Xiao stretched out five fingers and replied unhurriedly: "Five copies!"
Since it is a show, you have to make a complete set and buy one copy. Everyone knows that you are not planning to use it to make alchemy. Unless you are a master of alchemy, you can make it with just one set of materials.
Buying five copies will not only cost more spiritual stones, but also prevent Xin Rou from guessing his alchemy level. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
At this time, Xin Rou was also thinking about this matter in her mind. Yu Xiao only needed five copies of such a complex elixir. It seemed that he was not only an alchemy master, but also quite accomplished.
After coming to such a conclusion, the smile in Xin Rou's eyes became even stronger. She quickly called her men and prepared five portions of the spiritual herbs on the list. Then she talked to Yu Xiao: "Mr. Lu, what do you think?
How about Jiashan and Fengxian Pavilion?"
"Master Xin... what does this mean?" Yu Xiao couldn't understand what the other party was thinking, and looked a little strange.
Seeing this, Xin Rou didn't know what to say and said from the side: "I want to ask Mr. Lu if he is interested in earning some spiritual stones?"
If there were spiritual stones to earn, who would refuse, but Yu Xiao was not stupid either. The other party looked like he wanted to eat people, so he immediately pretended to be confused and replied: "I still don't understand what Manager Xin meant by that."
.”
Originally, Xin Rou thought that Yu Xiao's consciousness should be able to guess what she meant. Seeing his appearance, she simply said:
"Master Lu, to be honest, your identity as an alchemist interests me very much. I wonder if Master Lu has any intention to join our Fengxian Pavilion?"
Speaking of this, Xin Rou was afraid that Yu Xiao would misunderstand, so she quickly added: "Actually, Mr. Lu doesn't need to do anything, he just needs to refine some elixirs for Fengxian Pavilion.
We will provide all the spiritual herbs needed for elixir refining. Mr. Lu will only be responsible for refining the elixir. Afterwards, we will give him a corresponding commission based on the total amount of elixir sales every month. Other than that, there will be no restrictions on Mr. Lu."
Although they already have several alchemists in Fengxian Pavilion, there are still many shortages of elixirs every month, and it is not easy to cultivate such professional monks.
Almost none of the casual cultivators she met had the prerequisites to become an alchemist. Now that she finally met one, there was no reason not to win over him.
Yu Xiao smiled and said nothing. He had actually known Xin Rou's plan for a long time.
Let him join Fengxian Pavilion, unless his brain is broken.
Who would jump from a major cultivating immortal sect to Fengxian Pavilion, where for a small profit, if they had not come to Qingjia Mountain, they would not even know that such a force exists?
Even though he is only a registered disciple of Fuguang Sect now, he is still a disciple of a major cultivating immortality sect, far beyond what Fengxian Pavilion can compare with.
"I see, but I may disappoint Manager Xin. I still have a lot of things to deal with right now, but I don't have much time to refine the elixir." Yu Xiao declined politely.
Xin Rou had already expected this, but she was not surprised. After all, no matter how powerful an alchemist is, alchemy is only a side job, and cultivation strength is the most fundamental thing.
There is so much time for alchemy, it is better to use it to improve your cultivation.
She has never seen the kind of monk who works full-time on alchemy. Unless there is no chance to improve his realm, he will put all his thoughts on alchemy.
"Young Master Lu doesn't have to refuse so quickly. Our Fengxian Pavilion welcomes you to join us at any time. If you need some elixirs, you can come to Fengxian Pavilion. I promise that I won't let Young Master Lu suffer." Xin Rou solemnly said.
said.
While he was talking, the attendant had already prepared the five spiritual herbs.
Yu Xiao nodded thoughtfully and followed her words: "In that case, I will consider it, Manager Xin, how many spiritual stones are these five elixirs for alchemy?"
These words may have given Xin Rou a glimmer of hope, and a charming smile appeared on her face: "One piece of spiritual material costs one hundred and seven spiritual stones, and five copies of Mr. Lu will give you five hundred yuan."
Taking out five hundred spiritual stones and handing them to the other party, Yu Xiao collected the spiritual herbs and stood up to leave.
Xin Rou seemed to want to communicate with him for a while longer, and asked again: "Does Mr. Lu need anything else?"
"If Manager Xin can come up with Mo Chensha, I might consider buying it." Yu Xiao joked, but in his heart he actually wanted to find Mo Chensha quickly.
There is only one final spiritual material left to arrange the Five Spirits Gathering Formation, so we cannot give up at this time no matter what.
He will refine the Blood Veins Pill next, which may consume a lot of spiritual springs, and he doesn't know if the recovery speed of the spiritual springs can keep up with the consumption.
Regarding this matter, Xin Rou had no choice but to smile helplessly and said: "I will help Mr. Lu pay attention to the news about Mo Chensha."
"Then thank you very much, Manager Xin." Yu Xiao thanked him, turned around and left Fengxian Pavilion.
Returning to the cave, he distinguished the elixirs he bought, took out the elixirs for refining the Shengmai Dan, and entered the Yunshang Immortal Mansion for cultivation.
Judging from the experience of refining Qi Ji Dan for the first time, refining the Shengmai Dan requires at least dozens of attempts before a relatively stable rate of elixir formation can be achieved.
And this is still a conservative estimate, after all, the Shengmai Pill is not the Qi-Ji Pill.
The combination of three elixirs, whether in the smelting stage or the elixir-making stage, has become more difficult, and his experience in smelting multiple elixirs is almost zero.
This requires practice again and again to accumulate experience.
Half a month later.
On this day, Yu Xiao was sitting cross-legged in the cave, with an alchemy furnace placed in front of him.
While skillfully controlling the flames in the elixir furnace by using the fire-drawing technique, he threw three elixirs into the furnace.
As time went by, the three elixirs were wrapped in flames and turned into milky white spiritual liquid bit by bit in the high temperature.
It is strange to say that Yu Xiao threw the three elixirs into the alchemy furnace at the same time, but they were separated from each other. The extracted spiritual liquids were gathered into a ball with no obvious signs of fusion.
But the next moment, Yu Xiao's mind moved, and the three scattered groups of milky white spiritual fluid were simultaneously pulled by inexplicable forces and converged toward the center.
The moment the three came into contact, Yu Xiao immediately increased the temperature of the flame in the furnace, and the surface part of the milky white spiritual liquid immediately turned into a ball of gaseous material, wrapping the three groups of spiritual liquid in it.
Under the continuous refining of the subsequent flames, the three groups of spiritual liquid gradually completed the fusion, and finally only a white pill the size of a fingernail remained.
Yu Xiao stretched out his hand and the elixir fell into his palm.
If you look closely at its surface, you will see that it is round and plump, and it is white and colorless. If you get closer, you can smell a faint medicinal fragrance.
This is a good quality pill.
At this point, Yu Xiao's face finally showed a look of joy, and he murmured to himself:
"The method of controlling fire by distraction is indeed mysterious. The three elixirs are smelted separately so that their essences can be preserved to the greatest extent without contaminating each other.
