The purple magnolia used by Zhang Zhixuan as medicine is a third-level elixir. Although third-level purple magnolia is rare, you can always see some on the market.
Especially for sects like Ziyang Sect that are close to the Southern Wilderness, it is easy to obtain some wild elixirs.
More than a hundred years ago, in the Qingyang Mountain Spiritual Medicine Garden, there were more than 20 purple magnolia plants of the third level and above.
After discovering that this elixir could absorb purple energy, Zhang Zhixuan immediately arranged for people to gather all the purple magnolias and plant them on a hilltop with sufficient spiritual energy.
In recent decades, the Ziyang Sect has increased its efforts to purchase and plant purple magnolias. There are more than 200 purple magnolias at the third level and above, and more than a thousand purple magnolias at the second level.
As long as we manage it carefully and continue to fish, this kind of elixir Qingxuanzong can already be self-sufficient.
Creating a new elixir recipe is a big deal for the sect.
When Luo Ziyan developed the Breakthrough Pill, due to insufficient understanding of pharmacology, the pill recipe failed and deceived many people. Zhang Zhixuan's nephew Zhang Sidao suffered enough because of this and ended his career.
It's a pity that no matter how good the deduction is on paper, after the elixir is refined, it still needs to be found to be taken by someone to test the effect.
Zhang Zhixuan may not be fully aware of the effects of the new elixir.
When creating a new elixir recipe, you should discuss it with Luo Ziyan and other alchemists several times, check for any leaks and fill in the gaps, and then start the furnace after confirming that it is correct.
It's a pity that this kind of elixir involves the innate purple energy and the outside world. Even if the Ziyang Sect is not weak, Zhang Zhixuan would not dare to leak it easily.
Moreover, Luo Ziyan does not understand the art of accumulating qi and cannot understand the mystery of the innate purple qi. Even if she has a high level of alchemy, it will be difficult for her to be of much help to Zhang Zhixuan.
So he could only invite a few people from Qing Chan, teach them some alchemy skills, and then discuss with each other to make up for their shortcomings.
Zhang Zhixuan came to the quiet room, and Qing Chan and the other three found their seats respectively. They were all high-level monks and had made rapid progress in learning alchemy. In less than half a year, several of them had become third-level alchemists and had some experience in alchemy.
own understanding.
Refining this low-level elixir is not difficult for Zhang Zhixuan.
In less than half an hour, he successfully refined the elixir, with a 100% success rate, without any omissions.
Qingchan and the other three also started using it one after another. Unfortunately, they lacked experience in alchemy and their success rate was only about 10 to 20%.
After refining the elixir, Zhang Zhixuan immediately went to Nie Liangzuo, the leader of the missionary academy, and asked him to find some low-level monks under the age of sixty who could not exchange for the foundation-building elixir to test the effect of the elixir and look for improvements.
Nie Liangzuo did not dare to neglect the master's instructions. That afternoon he found dozens of ninth-level Qi-training monks with strong foundations and brought them into the underground cave of Lingjing Mountain.
When they saw the leader, all the Supreme Elders were there, but they were too far away from the Jindan and Yuanying monks, so these ninth-level Qi-training monks were as silent as cicadas and did not dare to show their anger.
Zhang Zhixuan waved his hand, waited for Nie Liangzuo to leave the cave, and then said to the many Qi-training monks: "Don't panic, calling everyone to my cave today is actually a good thing.
Some time ago, I worked hard for two hundred years to create an elixir. This elixir should be of some help to monks in building foundations. You are all hopeless people in building foundations. Are you willing to try this new elixir?
?If you pass away during the process of taking the elixir and making a breakthrough, the sect will definitely give you a strong subsidy. Your descendants, disciples and disciples will receive a subsidy of three thousand good deeds.
However, this magical elixir is related to the secrets of the sect, and any situation after taking the elixir must not be leaked to the outside world.
In addition, before taking the elixir, you must pass the test of asking for the magic talisman. Only if you are of clean origin can you have the opportunity to take the elixir. I hope you will consider it carefully."
Although I really want the monks who take the spirit pill to sign a blood oath contract, unfortunately the cost of the blood oath contract is very high. One contract is worth about 20,000 spirit stones, and low-level monks have no use for it.
This magical elixir will eventually spread on a large scale, and the secret cannot be kept at all.
In the past few hundred years, as long as the source of the spiritual elixir is controlled and the elixir is not allowed to flow out, this matter will not arouse the prying eyes of powerful enemies. When the Ziyang Sect becomes stronger and stronger, it will be able to teach Qi Accumulation Technique on a large scale.
Seeing what the leader said so solemnly, dozens of Qi-training monks did not dare to withdraw at will. Not to mention the temptation to break through the foundation building, if you withdraw at this juncture, wouldn't it make the sect doubt yourself?
Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhang Zhixuan selected a dozen or so ninth-level qi-training monks who had no hidden injuries and had sufficient vitality. After confirming with the second-level magic talisman that they were correct, he handed the spiritual pill to them.
In order to prevent the spiritual elixir from flowing out of the sect, Zhang Zhixuan chose the underground cave in Lingjing Mountain for their retreat.
The time to break through the foundation building bottleneck is roughly between half a year and a year.
In order to confirm the effect, Zhang Zhixuan waited for a whole year.
One year later, among the fourteen monks who took the pill, three succeeded in building the foundation, six were seriously injured in vitality, and although five did not break through the realm, their Dantian meridians were safe and sound, and they did not even lose much vitality.
After only one trial, the effect of this elixir has alarmed the sect's senior officials.
Although this brand-new elixir is only 40 to 50% as effective as the Foundation Establishment Pill, except for the innate purple energy, the cost of the elixir only accounts for about 10% of the Foundation Establishment Pill. According to Zhang Zhixuan's alchemy skills, one can be refined
The cost of the elixir is only three hundred spirit stones, and the innate purple energy it incorporates is no more than the three months of meditation he practiced.
If more monks practice Qi Accumulating Technique, and when this elixir spreads, the difficulty for monks to break through the foundation building will be reduced by about ten times.
After creating this kind of elixir, there will inevitably be more and more foundation-building monks in the Ziyang Sect. The top priority is to have more monks practice the Qi Accumulation Technique. After all, refining this elixir will consume the innate purple energy. If Zhang Zhixuan refines it in large quantities by himself,
This kind of elixir will definitely delay his practice and will be of no benefit to his personal path.
After seeing off this group of Qi-training monks, Qingchan put his palms in his hands and laughed and said, "Brother Zhixuan, do you have a name for the spiritual elixir?"
Zhang Zhixuan smiled and said: "I am waiting for you to give me advice!"
"Our name is Ziyang Sect. This elixir is the most precious inheritance of the sect. It might as well be called Ziyang Dan."
After picking up the name, Qing Chan said with emotion: "Brother Zhixuan, you have created a brand new path as soon as this elixir recipe came out. Just like Xu Zhenjun, the senior monk who invented the foundation building elixir, you will definitely benefit the people and your name."
Passed down through the ages.”
Zhang Zhixuan made a joke and said: "I don't know whether it is a disaster or a blessing to invent this kind of elixir. Our Ziyang Sect must not be like the Daozhen Sect. As soon as Xu Zhenjun ascended to the throne, the sect was destroyed by others, and even the Daoist order was left alone."
Keep it."
Xu Daoling invented the Foundation Building Pill, which made the Daozhen Sect become the leading sect in this world in just two thousand years.
It's a pity that once Xu Daoling, a man who was so powerful in this world, left, in order to seize the foundation-building elixir, the four top souls in this world took action together and beat the Daozhen sect to pieces, and even the sect's orthodoxy was not saved.
After this battle, the Foundation Building Pills spread out on a large scale.
Qing Chan smiled sweetly and said: "So in the past few hundred years, we have to keep a low profile and not refine this elixir on a large scale. Only when Brother Zhixuan refines the soul can we spread Qi Accumulation Technique on a large scale."
Zhang Zhixuan nodded and said: "You are right. Refining this kind of elixir requires consuming innate purple energy. If Ziyang Dan is refined on a large scale, it will not be beneficial to our practice of purple energy. I plan to pass on the energy accumulation technique to some practitioners.
Among the accomplished disciples of the family, let’s see who among them has the opportunity to refine this technique. If more of them learn the Qi Accumulation Technique, we will have several helpers for refining the Ziyang Pill.”
