Chapter 63: Taking Elixir and Transforming the Body
Qi Hao sat cross-legged on the stone slab, swallowed a pill, and quickly started to use his mental methods.
The elixir melts immediately in the mouth, and under the influence of the mind method, it suddenly takes effect. The surging spiritual power flows along the meridians, rushes to the limbs and bones, and violently impacts every acupoint.
Pain also came from every inch of flesh and blood. The majestic spiritual energy seemed to tear apart every inch of muscle in Qi Hao's body.
The severe pain almost made Qi Hao scream, and his facial features twisted together uncontrollably.
"Senior Brother Tiezhu took the elixir that day and didn't feel any discomfort. Why did he feel like this when he came to my place? Sister Chuanzhu, is my method wrong, or is there something wrong with this pot of elixir?" Qi Hao asked painfully.
If he hadn't refined the elixir himself, he would have forced the elixir out immediately.
"There's nothing wrong with the elixir, and there's nothing wrong with the method. The reason why you are in pain is because you are too weak." Fairy Chunzhu explained.
"Weak?" Qi Hao disagreed.
Zhao Tiezhu's strength is stronger than him, but he may not be much stronger.
Fairy Chunzhu seemed to have seen Qi Hao's thoughts and explained: "It's not that your realm is weak, it's that your body is too weak. Although Tianxi has changed your talents and attributes, it can't change everything. Although you are now
Practitioner, your body is still a lot worse than that of ordinary practitioners. If you cannot withstand the ferocious effects of the medicine, you will feel pain."
"So, as long as my body is strong enough, I won't feel such pain?"
"It's like this. Your current stage is not suitable for practicing martial arts. This is also the reason. Now you are forced to stand up, just like bone refining. Although the pain is unbearable, it is of great benefit to your physical progress."
After listening to Fairy Shunzhu's words, Qi Hao no longer hesitated and swallowed all the other three pills with gritted teeth.
The pain doubled instantly, but after experiencing a broken bone, Qi Hao was able to endure it. Even though he was sweating profusely, he did not scream.
Fairy Shunzhu looked at Qi Hao, full of heartache: "Father is right, although the human race is powerful, it is not as good as birds and beasts, which can be cultivated from birth. If the human race wants to succeed, the price they have to pay is too high. The sacrifices of mortals are even more.
It is hundreds of times more difficult than ordinary practitioners."
Looking back on my own practice, there was no pain, but Qi Hao in front of me almost fainted from the pain several times.
It is said that the pain of broken bones is the worst, but only after experiencing it personally can you understand that the pain of cutting flesh is far greater than the pain of broken bones.
In this way, Qi Hao persisted for seven or eight hours before fully absorbing the effect of the medicine.
His body lines were more perfect than before, and his muscle strength was twice as strong as before. Moreover, Qi Hao felt that his body was lighter.
"The power of the elixir is indeed powerful. If you want to reach this level through body refining, it will take at least several months. However, there is still no sign of a breakthrough. It seems that my jade bones may really transform into topaz.
bone."
The yellow color of the jade bone appears more, occupying a small half of the area, enough to compete with the emerald green.
"If this continues, with a few more batches of elixirs, I may completely transform into topaz bones. But now, my alchemy techniques are not good enough, and the success rate is too low." Qi Hao sighed.
If the number of failures is too low, you will lose not only merit points and herbs, but also a lot of time.
Fairy Shunzhu did not dare to agree with Qi Hao's idea: "Qi Hao, if you can refine the elixir within two months, you will be the envy of many alchemists. Among your people, refining weapons is the most difficult, followed by elixir refining.
, the formation is once again. How many alchemists have been making pills for many years, but they still have trouble mastering the essence and refining it into a pot of pills."
"Those alchemists have families and sects to support them, but I don't."
Qi Hao smiled bitterly.
His current success rate in alchemy is only one tenth.
Calculated in this way, refining a furnace of elixirs will consume herbs with a merit value of seven to eight hundred, which is not a small sum of money.
"Then you don't have to belittle yourself. In fact, there are many things to consider when refining alchemy. The quality of a pot of elixir depends not only on the alchemist, but also on the right time, place, and people. The quality of the herbs, the quality of the spring water, and the surrounding environment will all
It affects the results of alchemy."
"The surrounding environment?"
"Yes. If you are in a place where the spiritual energy is exhausted, even the best alchemist will not be able to refine the perfect elixir. On the contrary, if you are in the Cave Heaven Paradise, the success rate and quality of the elixir will be greatly improved. Moreover,
It also has something to do with the alchemist’s mood..."
Fairy Chunzhu's eloquent talk opened a new window for Qi Hao.
He thought of a place that was most suitable for alchemy, Tianling Spring.
If we were to say where the spiritual energy is the richest and where the spring water is the best within the Qingya Sect, it must be the Tianling Spring.
I haven't been to Tianlingquan for several months, so I can just go and collect wool.
However, Qi Hao still had to make some preparations before going.
He took out the jade slips and informed Chiming to bring some more herbs, and informed him that he was going to Tianling Spring.
"Why did you go to Tianlingquan? Did the sect give you another reward?"
"No, I have other things to do there. Chiming, you can't tell others about this."
"Don't worry, I know it's kept secret. I'll pick you up tomorrow and take you to Tianling Spring."
With Chi Ming's guarantee, Qi Hao contacted Han Ziqing.
"Senior Brother Han, I want to choose a defensive magic weapon. Do you have any recommendations?"
"It depends on which one you want, whether you want it to be long-lasting or more explosive."
Soon, Senior Brother Han replied to the message.
"Do defensive magic weapons also have this difference?" Qi Hao asked.
"Of course, defensive magic weapons and weapons are the same, with different attributes and different emphasis."
"I want someone who is explosively strong, preferably someone who can block a blow from the bone-joining realm." Qi Hao responded without thinking.
Even if he is facing the peak of Zhen Gu, he can still run away if he can't beat him.
Therefore, it is of no use to use a magic weapon that lasts.
"Yes, there is, but it can only block attacks at the second level of Bone Bone. No matter how high it is, it won't work. There are two kinds of treasures in the Treasure Pavilion for you to choose from. One is the Burning Sky Armor, which has fire attributes.
Yes, in its natural state, it can block attacks from the first level of joint bone. After it is activated, it becomes more defensive. However, this armor needs to be warmed and maintained by flames regularly."
"Besides that, there is the fanatic armor. It is made of seven or eight kinds of alloys. It has very strong defensive power and can block the third level of bone-joining attacks. However, this armor has a shortcoming. It is very bulky and cannot be used lightly.
Simplified, you will be able to see it at a glance when you wear it. Generally only people from hunting teams and mercenary groups will wear it. Sect disciples rarely choose it."
"You make your own choice, I think the strong one is more suitable for you."
"Thank you so much, Senior Brother Han."
Qi Hao thought for a while and found that the Burning Sky Armor was indeed more suitable.
Although the Outlaw Armor is more defensive, it is really inappropriate to wear heavy armor every time.
