What Li Mochen wanted to refine was the Taoist 'Water Alchemy'.
As the name suggests, 'Waitan' is a golden elixir outside the human body. A long time ago, monks from all walks of life in the original realm often refined some rare objects from the world and demon elixirs into external elixirs, or used them to make them quickly.
Or as a supplement to the golden elixir itself.
Since at that time, the spiritual power in the original firmament world was still extremely strong, this 'outer elixir' was also very popular in the entire practice world, and no one did not practice it.
Legend has it that some people use top-grade demon elixirs or various essences of heaven and earth to sacrifice and refine them into the second soul, creating boundless magic power.
However, this method, which only cultivates life without cultivating nature, is not the right path of Taoism after all. Those who are experts in external elixirs rarely die in peace.
When the spiritual tide in the world was exhausted, not only those heavenly materials and earthly treasures gradually became rare, but also monsters and beasts, there were not many left in the world, so the method of external elixir gradually declined and became a supplementary technique of Taoism.
Li Mochen originally did not practice external alchemy in the realm of Yuanqiong. But when he became a Mahayana at the age of more than sixty years old, and then was limited by the lack of the entire world, and it was difficult to make any progress in practice, he began to delve into external alchemy.
He uses the method of alchemy and improves it on the basis of the sect's secrets, trying to achieve his own second soul.
It's a pity that he failed in the end. At that time, the resources of the Yuan Qiong Realm were too few. After he raised the Waidan to the realm of the Yuan Qian Realm, which was second only to Mahayana, it became difficult for him to make further progress.
However, when it comes to the study of external elixirs, if Li Mochen said that he was second, no one would dare to say that he was first.
In the crucible furnace, the wildfire mammoth's beast crystal had begun to melt. Li Mochen immediately controlled the magic array in the crucible furnace, scattering the yellow and red auras and forcibly contained them in the furnace.
The so-called beast crystal is actually a quasi-crystal produced by combining the flesh and blood of beasts with high-purity magic energy. Once melted, all the high-purity magic energy inside will dissipate.
What Li Mochen had to do at this time was to replace the flesh and blood of the wildfire mammoth with other materials to become a body that possessed high-purity magic energy.
At the same time, he also needs to further purify these high-purity magical energy, and burn a huge and complex talisman array inside the possession body, so that it can obtain abilities similar to the monk's golden elixir.
The reason why the wildfire mammoth's beast crystal is more suitable than other beast crystals is that it has a huge magic energy reserve that is more than ten times that of other beasts, and the second reason is that there is a large amount of earth spiritual power in the beast crystal.
——Of course it can also be called magic energy.
In the eyes of Taoist immortals, the soil of the five elements has a unique position among the five elements. It is the source of all life and blood, and is also the basis for all living things and all things to rely on, so it is the "foundation of acquired nature".
This is the basis for the existence of external elixirs. Only by cultivating the earth spiritual power first can other spiritual powers be attached to it.
In addition, the wildfire mammoth's beast crystal has an additional benefit. It also has some high-purity spiritual power of the wood system. Although the five elements cannot be mutually reinforcing, one can actually achieve one between the three systems of fire, earth, and wood.
A small cycle of Sheng Ke, this is the perfect material for making Waidan.
At this time, Li Mochen was still very unskilled in the manipulation of magic arrays and crucible furnaces, and was even relatively unfamiliar.
But now that he has the right materials, Li Mochen is absolutely unwilling to miss it.
The original owner was surrounded by dangers, and he had to recover some strength as quickly as possible, and this 'Water Alchemy' technique was the most feasible method.
It would be the best if you can successfully refine the "outer elixir" of extra-legal level this time. As long as you can collect the help of good magic guns and magic weapons, unless you encounter someone above level 15 in the future,
A high-level magic professional, otherwise it would be difficult to defeat him physically and with force.
But even if he fails, he can gain enough experience to try again.
Next, Li Mochen was immersed in it, gradually losing track of the passage of time. He used the tools at hand to repeatedly stir, forge, and carve in the crucible furnace, completely unaware of the sunset and sunrise outside.
It wasn't until the crucible furnace began to draw magic energy from all around like a whirlpool that Li Mochen looked slightly relaxed and wiped the sweat on his face with his hand with joy.
Although the process was very difficult and thrilling, and he almost exploded by just a hair's breadth, he finally managed to make it!
After about ten breaths, the surging magic energy gradually calmed down. At this moment, Li Mochen dripped his own blood through the special gap of this crucible furnace. Then the next moment, there was an even greater tide of magic energy, and this crucible furnace
It was as if there was a bottomless abyss inside, swallowing up all the magic energy it had gathered.
This time lasted for about half a minute. When Li Mochen opened the furnace door, he saw a golden pill lying inside. This pill was about the size of a pigeon egg. If you look closely at the surface, you can still see it.
Some vague mysterious spiritual patterns. They are not fixed, but change accordingly with the movement of light.
Following Li Mochen's thought, the elixir he had named 'Spiritual Fire' spontaneously flew up and landed in his hand.
The next moment, a solid stone shield was formed in front of him, and then there was flame, a red flame, leaping and burning in the palm of his hand.
These are all immortal arts from the realm of Yuan Qiong, and they are all performed with the help of the power of the outer elixir.
However, this was not a spell practice room. Li Mochen did not dare to use more powerful spells. After trying it out for a while, he stopped and put the elixir into his sleeve.
At this time, Li Mochen's eyes also showed a hint of disappointment and helplessness.
This is a fusion realm outer elixir. With his current level, he can only go so far——
The so-called fusion realm is the Qi training realm in this world. If you change it to a Western magic profession, it would be level nine to ten.
The reason why the eleventh-level beast crystal was finally downgraded to this level was because, firstly, there was loss during the purification process, and secondly, because of his previous mistakes, which caused part of the high-purity spiritual power to dissipate. So it finally took shape.
After that, it’s only between level nine and ten.
It is a pity that this elixir has not reached the level of being comparable to the Outlaw. But given his current situation, it is a blessing to be able to refine it.
In addition, it is probably because the magic energy of the beast crystal itself is mixed and impure.
Unlike human magic professionals who can enter the legendary realm at level 26, these magical creatures often need level 26 or above to enter the legendary realm. This is the different results of unconscious accumulation and conscious cultivation.
Li Mochen judged that if he wanted to refine a foreign elixir that truly reached the level of extra-legal strength, he would need to continue to improve his ability in weapon refining, and he would also need to obtain a beast crystal of at least level 13 or above, or
They are other treasures of heaven and earth.
This is because there is a gap between the tenth level and the eleventh level of magic power, and it is not just a simple level difference.
When Li Mochen walked out of the refining room, he found that it was already noon. In other words, he had unknowingly missed the four classes on Monday morning.
Li Mochen couldn't help rubbing his brows with a headache, knowing that he would inevitably be criticized or even scolded by the grade advisor when he went to school later.
But it doesn't matter just like that, the key is the class time. If the class time is not enough, it will still have a great impact on his GPA score. And being absent from class for no reason will even affect the teacher's perception and affect the score.
But in this situation, there is no point in regretting, and he will not regret it. If he makes another choice, Li Mochen will do it again. It is just a few lessons, and it will not be more important than his life.
Fortunately, Tuesday was the midterm exam time and he didn't miss it.
