According to this standard, the number of second-level elixirs that Liu Yu can refine has already reached three types.
Moreover, the success rate is far beyond 30%, and he is truly a "senior alchemist".
Even if he is asked to refine the second-level top-quality elixir, he is very sure that the efficiency will reach 30%.
In this way, you are not far from the master of alchemy.
"Why do you think so much? I don't rely on alchemy to gain a foothold, I just need enough."
Shaking his head, Liu Yu smiled slightly, took out the jade bottle and put seven Red Yuan Pills into it.
Then the impurities in the cauldron were cleaned, the cauldron was re-ignited and preheated, and the refining of the next elixir began.
Excluding failures along the way, each refinement of the second-level elixir basically takes about an hour.
And Chi Yuan Dan is a second-level middle-grade elixir. Including the preparation time for cleaning the cauldron, it takes more than an hour.
When the ten spiritual herbs for refining the Red Yuan Dan were all consumed, nearly a day had passed.
Counting the first successful one, Liu Yu successfully refined three furnaces of Chiyuan Dan, with a success rate of over 30%.
A total of twenty-seven Chiyuan Pills were obtained, and the next two times yielded ten pills.
"Based on the current situation, once I get familiar with this pill, the success rate should soon be close to that of the Yangyuan Pill."
Thinking about this, Liu Yu felt relaxed for a while.
This feeling of increasing knowledge and strengthening strength is really good.
He stood up, cleaned the Xuanhuang Cauldron inside and out, put it into his storage bag, and left the alchemy room.
…
The foundation-building true fire consumes very little mana, and the mental strength and energy of the foundation-building monks are also extraordinary, which can be considered "extraordinary" level.
After refining alchemy continuously for a whole day, Liu Yu still didn't blush or breathed. She just felt a little tired, but not to the point where she needed sleep and rest.
One day passed, and the potency of the elixir I took yesterday was almost absorbed.
Even if some of the medicinal power is deposited as erysipelas, it can still be washed with "Canglang Spiritual Water", and now you can take the elixirs to practice again.
Liu Yu went straight to the practice room, ready to try the effect of this Chi Yuan Dan.
He sat cross-legged on the futon, gently closed his eyes, and slowly adjusted his state.
Gathering energy and concentrating one's mind, holding one's strength and guarding one's will, one gradually enters a state of forgetting both things and myself.
In this situation where things and I have forgotten both things, the restless and impetuous mood that was originally a little complacent due to the improvement of alchemy skills gradually calmed down and returned to the original state of being calm.
"Gulu~"
After adjusting his condition, Liu Yu opened his eyes, took out the jade bottle containing Chiyuan Dan, poured out one and swallowed it.
As soon as the elixir enters the stomach, its power quickly melts and takes effect, and part of it turns into wisps of pure fire-attribute spiritual energy.
This aura has the unique scorching heat and hotness of the fire attribute. It is very easy to be absorbed by monks who practice fire attribute skills, and can improve their cultivation to increase the upper limit of their mana.
Feeling the burning sensation in her belly, Liu Yu did not dare to be careless and immediately closed her eyes.
He hit the spells in his hand continuously, running the fifth level of Qingyang Gong, constantly absorbing the medicinal power of Chiyuan Dan, and refining wisps of pure fire spirit energy.
One weekly cycle, two weekly cycles.
These pure fire-based auras go through thirty-six great cycles before they are transformed into the mana of Qingyang Gong, and then flow into the Dantian.
It passes through the Qingyang Demonic Fire in the Dantian and removes some impurities before finally returning to the "Lake of Mana" at the bottom of the Dantian.
Liu Yu's complexion gradually turned green, and he kept running the Great Zhoutian Cycle, repeating this process, accumulating mana bit by bit.
"Huhu"
It was not until three hours later that I completed this meditation practice and finally opened my eyes.
"It doesn't seem to be as effective as recorded?"
"It's only a little more than 20% better than the Yangyuan Pill."
He frowned slightly, holding his chin and thinking carefully.
"Is there a mistake in any step of the alchemy process?"
"Is this causing the drug to become less effective?"
Liu Yu recalled the recipe of Chiyuan Dan in detail, and recalled his own alchemy process, constantly making comparisons.
However, after comparing several times, we still came to the conclusion that there is no difference.
Then he poured out all the elixirs he had refined this time and compared them repeatedly, but found no difference.
"What is the reason?"
Liu Yu rinsed her body, put on a new robe, and sat in the hall, still thinking about this problem.
"Could it be the reason for the skill?"
After ruling out every possibility, he finally thought of this, and then the more he thought about it, the more likely it became.
The specific grade of Qing Yang Kung is unknown, but it is at least a top grade Kung Fu.
The purity of mana is very high from the beginning. Every ray of mana during the foundation building period has to go through thirty-six great cycles.
Then it has to be initially tempered by the demonic fire before finally entering the lake of mana.
After reading several books of different levels of exercises in his hand, Liu Yu understood.
Ordinary exercises only need to go through twenty-four great celestial cycles to refine mana, and the meridians running through them are far less complex than Qingyang exercises.
Even the top-grade technique, Netherworld Xuan Bing Lu, only needs to go through thirty cycles of the Great Zhoutian. The movement of the meridians is a bit more complicated, but it is not as good as Qingyang Kung Fu.
There is no doubt that the more the Great Zhoutian cycle is carried out, the purer the mana will be in the end.
From this point of view, even if it is a top-grade Kung Fu, the purity of its power is not as good as that of Qingyang Kung Fu, just a little bit different.
What's more, there is "Demon Fire Refining Yuan" at the end.
The higher the purity of mana, the more spiritual energy is required for transformation.
From this explanation, it seems possible to explain why the effect of Chiyuan Dan is not as good as expected.
"Perhaps, it is precisely because of the technique and the purity of the magic power."
Thinking about this, Liu Yu felt a little relieved.
However, even though he was already very confident, he still decided that if he had the opportunity, he would ask Master Yibao for advice, or go to the sect's library to check it out.
"Is Qingyang Kung really just a top-grade Kung Fu?"
"What kind of skill is it? Where can I find the remaining parts?"
The old questions have not gone away, but new ones have arisen.
The more Liu Yu practices, the more extraordinary he can feel the Qingyang Kung.
Whether it is the extremely high purity of mana from the beginning or the great potential of the Qingyang Demonic Fire, both are extraordinary techniques.
He had seen the "Three Heroes and Four Heroes" and the "Six Sons of Hehuan" take action, but judging from their judgment between actions, the skills they practiced were no more than this.
If he reaches the late stage of foundation building and undergoes the seventh demonic fire refining, his own strength will be no different.
Not to mention the secret technique of "Demon Fire Refining Elements", which can not only increase your strength, but also increase the chance of forming a pill.
All kinds of performances are enough to show that the Qingyang Kung is extraordinary and gives Liu Yu a strength that far exceeds that of monks of the same level.
Coupled with sophisticated magic weapons and spiritual weapons, it can even compete with later monks in the early stages of foundation building.
"Could it be a top-level skill?"
"A top-level skill comparable to the sect's inherited skill "Three Yang Burning Heaven Skill"?"
Liu Yu thought a little excitedly.
But after thinking for a while, there was no result, so I had to give up.
The disciple of the Hehuan Sect back then was dead. Even if he wanted to trace the origin of the bronze lamp, he would have no way to start.
What's more, his hand can't reach the Hehuan Gate.
After taking out the bronze lamp and playing with it for a while, Liu Yu put it back into the storage bag, took out a book of spiritual herbs and started to read through it.
…
The main force attacks the large gathering points of immortal cultivators and sends small teams to conquer the small forces along the way. This method is not only adopted by Yuanyang Sect.
The Hehuanmen and Qingxu faction who attacked Youzhou together also adopted the same method.
Sending out teams similar to the "Qingfeng" teams scattered throughout Youzhou to fight for the interests of the sect, there is also a vague intention of initially racing to enclose the territory.
Due to the unexpected results and the fact that most of the team leaders are very strong, many teams have made good progress in just one day after leaving the Ancient Que Immortal City.
Some are slower than Liu Yu, and some are faster than Liu Yu.
For example, senior sister Li Buyu is not only strong in her own right, but also backed by her family.
The lineup configuration of his team was far from comparable to Liu Yu's. At this time, there was no need for any strategy at all, and they were able to defeat each other in just two days.
There is also Ma Yingjie, who also has the Ma family of the Jindan family behind him, and his progress is very fast.
The situation of the Hehuanmen and Qingxu sect teams is similar.
Before Baiyunguan could react, the Chu teams were progressing smoothly.
And just the day before Liu Yu attacked Phoenix Mountain, the Jindan-level battle in Jinquefang City was also exciting.
The power of the magic weapon filled the air for half the day and did not dissipate until sunset.
…
Seven days after capturing Phoenix Mountain. The original White Lotus Cave.
Liu Yu held the newly obtained high-grade spiritual weapon, the Light Sword, and continuously injected mana into the sword to warm it up and wash away the mana breath of the white lotus flower in it.
Make the spiritual weapon familiar with its own magic power, and you can better control Ruyi when using it.
A quarter of an hour later, the warm-up was completed. As soon as he put the lightsaber into his storage bag, a voice came from his ears.
"Yue Xin and others are here to recover and ask to see Senior Brother Qingyang!"
Because the formation is not turned on, the sound can be transmitted in unimpeded.
"Everyone, please come in."
Liu Yu's lips moved, and her voice was easily conveyed outside.
After saying that, he finally had time to look towards the door.
I saw three figures walking in quickly. The first one was a woman with pale skin and bright red hair. There was a cold, restless aura circulating around her body.
It was Leng Yuexin, Cui Liang, and Wei Guping who carried out the task of eradicating the weeds!
"I've met Senior Brother Liu (Senior Brother Qingyang)!"
After greeting each other, Liu Yu asked the three of them to sit down and then asked.
"As expected by senior brother, everything went very smoothly."
"All the Bai family's mortal villages and towns within a radius of dozens of miles around Phoenix Mountain have been exhausted..."
Leng Yuexin opened her mouth and reported on the mission.
As she spoke, the blood in her eyes flashed away, but her pupils were still filled with tiny bloodshot eyes, which looked particularly evil.
At this time, this woman's cultivation level has broken through to the middle stage of foundation building, but her aura is very restless and appears extremely unstable.
Cui Liang looked at Leng Yuexin talking freely, with barely concealed alienation and disgust on his face. It was obvious that something unpleasant had happened during this mission.
No, he didn't realize it himself, but he was subconsciously afraid of this woman.
Wei Guping had the same idea. She couldn't accept this kind of pure "demon cultivation", but she couldn't express her alienation and disgust.
But from her subtle movements, it was obvious that she felt very fearful.
"Well, not bad."
After listening to the reports of the three people, Liu Yu nodded slightly, but only gave a symbolic compliment.
The power gap between cultivators and mortals is so huge that it cannot be compensated by simple numbers. If they can't handle even this small thing, there is no need for the three of them to stay in the team.
"Junior sister Leng has made great progress in her cultivation and is one step closer to the golden elixir path. Congratulations!"
Sensing Leng Yuexin's state of mind, Liu Yu said with a smile.
As a team leader, the stronger the team, the better it is for him.
"I really don't dare to take what Senior Brother said. Yue Xin's shallow cultivation is inferior to that of Senior Brother Qingyang."
Leng Yuexin took a deep breath, forced an ugly smile on her face, and said modestly.
Obviously he has a clear understanding of his own strength and is not arrogant because of it.
But no matter how hard she tried to control it, the bloodshot eyes never retreated, which was a bit abnormal.
In Liu Yu's spiritual perception, although this woman's realm has improved, the aura exuding from her body is extremely messy and unstable, as if she may lose control at any time.
This made him frown secretly and feel a little unhappy.
Demonic skills progress very quickly in the early stage, but they often have various serious sequelae, making it difficult to progress later.
At the same time, due to the characteristics of magic power, it will often subtly affect the monk's temperament, and may even become completely different in the end, and he will no longer be the original "self".
Even going crazy, losing control, and losing your mind are not very feasible.
This is especially obvious in ordinary magic skills.
As for Leng Yuexin, it is obvious that she practices this kind of ordinary magic skill.
"Junior Brother Cui and fellow Taoist Gu Ping, could you please go and call all of your colleagues over to discuss matters."
Liu Yu suppressed her smile and said calmly to the two of them.
"yes."
The two held hands and quickly walked out of the cave.
If you want to convene colleagues to discuss matters, you can just assign a Qi Refining Stage monk. Why do you need a Foundation Establishment Stage monk to go in person?
Both of them guessed that Liu Yu had something to say to Leng Yuexin alone, so they left without asking any further questions.
"After attacking Phoenix Mountain, Liu hoped that this area would maintain a relatively stable state."
"This will make it easier to manage and not too confusing."
"Both the world of immortals and the secular world remain generally calm. Low-level monks and mortals cannot suffer a large number of casualties."
"Junior sister Leng, can you control yourself?"
Liu Yu took a sip of the spiritual tea and looked at the female cultivator in front of her, her voice slightly cold.
As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the other person. Although he did not release any spiritual pressure, the warning in his words was very obvious.
There was obviously something wrong with this woman's condition, and Liu Yu was worried that this woman would "lose control" and go on a killing spree, ruining his plans.
"If freedom is not restricted, it will inevitably lead to the exploitation of the weak by the strong."
This is a sentence from a previous life, but it is equally applicable in this cruel world of immortality.
The great power of the monks belongs to themselves, and the high-level monks can completely destroy the low-level monks and mortals.
Once Leng Yuexin is affected by the magic power and loses control, he is likely to kill a large number of low-level monks and mortals.
Yearning for freedom is the nature of intelligent life, and it is also one of the goals pursued by immortal cultivators.
But the excessive freedom of monks is likely to cause serious consequences and even turn into a "disaster".
In order to reduce variables, Liu Yu took action at this time to interfere with Leng Yuexin's freedom and draw a boundary for his freedom.
This boundary is - it cannot kill or injure a large number of low-level monks and mortals.
The so-called "large amount" in his mind means that one cannot exceed two digits and the other cannot exceed four digits.
As long as it is within this range and does not affect the stability of the situation and your own plans, then you can accept it.
Faced with such a stern tone from Senior Brother Qingyang, Leng Yuexin's breath froze.
Although there was no pressure from spiritual pressure, I felt a strong pressure for no reason, and my heart suddenly trembled!
