After Yan Bingxuan entered Butian Taoist Temple, she chose the most famous vitality system to practice.
The so-called vitality system is used to study various combinations and arrangements of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so as to artificially synthesize various evil spirits, spiritual power, divine light, true energy, etc.
The source is the artificially synthesized Earthly Evil Qi pioneered by Master Yuanxu. Later, many geniuses from Butian Taoist Academy used this method to derive the five elements essence as the basic raw material. Through different conditions and reactions, artificial high-level spiritual energy was created.
Since the origin of this discipline is Master Yuanxu, it is named "Yuanqi Science".
For example, the pure Yang spiritual power cultivated by Chen Mobai, this vitality system can be artificially synthesized with fire attribute spiritual energy without a practitioner.
The reason why Yan Bingxuan chose this was not only because this department lacked researchers, but also because she wanted to upgrade her black ice spiritual power into "Ice Soul Divine Light" through the study of vitality.
As long as she can practice the Ice Soul Divine Light, she can use the freezing technique taught by Yan Qiongzhi, which will be very helpful in opening up the realm of golden elixir in the future.
Chen Mobai naturally fully supported her choice.
After all, he now has great hope of forming a pill, and he also hopes that the friends around him can continue to improve and accompany him on this journey.
When Chen Mobai was free, he also accompanied her to class. The main reason was that he was also very curious about vitality science and wanted to understand the principles.
However, his main focus was still on the cultivation of Fang Cun Shu, and he also took courses on statecraft and military affairs to enrich his knowledge in advance for the future leadership of the entire Eastern Wasteland.
It is in this practice of Fang Cun Shu that progress is very slow.
But Chen Mobai is very calm. As long as he can form elixirs, he will have plenty of time in the future.
With Yan Bingxuan by my side, reading and studying, which was originally boring, took on an indescribable and wonderful flavor.
Not long after school started, Meng Huanger also came over secretly. With Chen Mobai's help, she successfully broke through to the third floor of the foundation building.
In this peaceful and contented state of mind, Chen Mobai's cultivation level is also steadily improving. With the help of Meng Huang'er's spiritual consciousness that he heard when he broke through, the sound of the heart sounds is also under the daily vibration of the morning bell, just like
The tempered iron ore gradually turned into refined iron.
Needless to say, the cultivation level of Chunyang Juan was not to mention. At the end of the first year after Yan Bingxuan took the postgraduate entrance examination and entered Butian Taoist Academy, he naturally broke through to the eighth level of foundation building.
According to this progress, he will be able to meet the minimum requirements for pill formation by the end of the postgraduate entrance examination.
However, not everything was as expected. After Chen Xinglan took Chen Mobai's modified Foundation Establishment Pill, his breakthrough still failed.
Facts have proved that his father is indeed a very ordinary monk.
Even though Chen Mobai used the phaseless puppet to deduce it several times, he was still unable to cross that threshold.
After this time, Chen Xinglan also completely let go. After he failed to build the foundation, he lay on the hospital bed. He held Chen Mobai's hand and said: "I have attacked the foundation twice for my father. My wish has been fulfilled. You will not do it again in the future."
You need to worry about building my foundation now. I will spend the rest of my life with your mother. If you, my son, can successfully build the elixir, just put incense sticks on our graves every ten years."
For ordinary monks who have passed their sixtieth birthday, failure to build the foundation will result in the loss of more lives. Although Chen Mobai purchased the life-extending elixir through Yu Rulin, Chen Xinglan still looked much older after being discharged from the hospital.
Chen Mobai felt that he might leave earlier than his mother Tang Pancui.
As for her mother, Tang Pancui, she has not developed spiritual consciousness for many years. Even if Chen Mobai helps her and uses a phaseless doll to deduce based on her personal data, even if she has a Foundation Establishment Pill, there is little hope.
Moreover, Tang Pancui herself was not thinking about foundation building. Chen Mobai mentioned it to her, but she just shook her head and refused.
Chen Xinglan failed to build the foundation twice, which made her even less qualified and perseverant. She has a shadow on the foundation building. Now she just wants to spend the rest of her life in peace and stability with her family, and does not want to suffer the pain of failed transformation.
In this regard, Chen Mobai could only nod helplessly.
Birth, old age, illness and death are inevitable events for no one. Even the ancestor who transformed into a spirit will have no choice but to sit sadly after his death, and his soul will be extinguished!
Even if Chen Mobai had the turtle treasure, he could only hope for a thousand years of life.
However, his father's failure to build the foundation still made him depressed for a few days.
Ninety-eight times out of ten things in life are unsatisfactory. Fortunately, Yan Bingxuan is with him in Danxia City, and he can share his feelings with her.
After saying that, he also recovered.
After returning to Butian Taoist Temple with Yan Bingxuan in the new semester, Chen Mobai left a formless doll in the Taoist Temple to study, while the real body went to Xiaonan Mountain to practice with the help of the strong spiritual energy there.
Time has been busy, and more than half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Chen Mobai came out of seclusion and took a look at the messenger talisman outside the cloud formation.
But I got some bad news.
That is, Zeng Woyou refined two furnaces of Foundation Establishment Pills, but both failed, causing all the true disciples who were waiting for the Foundation Establishment Pills to be extremely disappointed, including naturally his young disciple Luo Yixuan.
Some of them were extreme, even scolding them in private, saying that Zeng Woyou, the head of the alchemy department, was overestimating his abilities. He clearly did not have the ability to refine foundation-building elixirs, but he still wanted to occupy the sect's precious chalcedony and gold zhi, which was in vain.
Many people's opportunities to build foundations were wasted.
After all, if the medicinal materials for these two furnaces of Foundation-Building Pills were handed over to Huitian Valley for refining, there would be at least seven or eight pills guaranteed.
Under such circumstances, when Zeng Woyou was preparing to refine the third batch of foundation-building pills, the overt and covert pressure began to flow away.
Four of the twelve departments jointly submitted a letter to ask Chu Zuoshu to withdraw his order and prevent Zeng Woyou from continuing to harm the sect's precious chalcedony and golden zhi.
Chu Zuoshu was also very hesitant about this.
He and Zeng Woyou were not on good terms with each other in the first place. It was only after Chen Mobai's persuasion that he agreed to Zeng Woyou's refining of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Now that Zeng Woyou's refining failed twice, he was able to successfully prevent this matter.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But this has allowed Zeng Woyou to practice for two furnaces. If he gives up now, wouldn’t all the precious medicinal materials from the previous two furnaces be wasted?
Although there is no professional term like "sunk cost" in Donghuang, Chu Zuoshu undoubtedly has this mentality.
And it's not just him, there are also many people within the Shenmu Sect who support Zeng Woyou for this reason.
"Junior Brother Chen, you came just in time."
When Chen Mobai came to visit Chu Zuoshu, the latter was worried about this matter.
"Master, you know that Minister Zeng has helped me a lot. If you ask me, then I will definitely support him."
After Chen Mobai listened, he first made his attitude clear.
In the Shenmu Sect, he and Zeng Woyou were on the same level.
"If that's the case, then give him one last chance. But you can't do the same thing. Go to the Alchemy Department and tell him that if this furnace still fails, he can also step down as the head of the Alchemy Department.
.”
Chu Zuoshu still resented Zeng Woyou for not giving him face at that time, so he simply took advantage of this opportunity to keep a general ledger.
Chen Mobai and Zeng Woyou have a good relationship. In order to prevent the latter from being settled, he can only run the errand once.
"Junior Brother Chen, don't worry. In fact, I have already completed the training in the second furnace. However, I did not grasp the final step of condensing and tempering the pills well. The three foundation-building pills I practiced became waste pills. As long as I give you another
If I get a chance, I can definitely practice a normal Foundation Building Pill."
After Zeng Woyou listened to Chen Mobai's words, he didn't care at all that he might be fired as the head of the alchemy department. After all, he was the number one alchemist of the Shenmu Sect. Even if he had no position, he was the sect's high-level alchemist.
We still have to rely on him for the refining task.
"Oh, can you show me this useless elixir?"
As soon as Chen Mobai finished speaking, Yan Jinye beside him immediately handed over a jade box.
As a disciple of Zeng Woyou, she also helped when refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, and she was involved in both failures.
"Although it is a useless elixir, its properties are actually good, but the erysipelas is more than 20 to 30%. Even if the foundation is successfully established after taking it, it will probably take more than ten years to eliminate the poison."
"But even if it is a waste elixir, if it is placed in the market outside, there will still be casual cultivators willing to pay thousands of spiritual stones to buy it."
"Even within our sect, there have been many old former true disciples recently who came to us through connections and wanted to redeem these waste elixirs."
Zeng Woyou watched Chen Mobai take out a foundation-building pill with gray marks to appreciate it, and he defended himself, saying that his alchemy skills were no longer problematic, only the final details of tempering the erysipelas were missing.
"I see. If it's just erysipelas, I have a good idea."
Chen Mobai hesitated for a moment, thinking that if he formed the elixir, the Shenmu Sect would be his sect, and the sect would spend a lot of money to refine the gold liquid jade rejuvenation elixir for himself, so he decided to tell the story about the spirit essence.
Come out and increase the strength of Shenmu Sect.
There is another consideration, that is, he wants to train Zeng Woyou.
After all, the qi-boosting spiritual water from the Immortal Sect only has the highest grade of the second level. After forming the elixir, he cannot use it to quickly increase his spiritual power and break through to the realm. If he wants to maintain the rapid progress of his cultivation, he must start taking the Donghuang water.
of elixirs.
Although he has the Burning Lamp Technique and can refine erysipelas, the amount of this refining is also limited. He informed Zeng Woyou of the spiritual essence method in advance for his own consideration.
"It's enough for the two of you to know about this matter. You must not pass it on to a third person."
When Chen Mobai exchanged the elixir for Yan Jinye's longevity tree fruit, he felt that he owed her something, so he let her stay after she originally wanted to go out to avoid suspicion.
"There is such a knack... This should be one of the secrets of the ancient Immortality Sect's control over the Tianhe world... Junior Brother Chen, don't worry, I will make a Taoist oath..."
After hearing this, Zeng Woyou looked excited. He was an alchemy fanatic. With no hope of forming alchemy, he just wanted to break through to a fourth-level alchemist.
With this spiritual essence method, he felt that his originally slim path forward had been opened up with a ray of light.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Chen, for your advice. It's hard to repay a great kindness. If you have any instructions from now on, just say hello."
Next to him, Yan Jinye also had a pretty face with a slight blush, and his eyes were shining with excitement. After taking the oath of Taoism, he couldn't wait to try this spiritual essence method.
"Junior Brother Chen, as long as I am still the head of the Alchemy Department, I will raise my hand to agree with all your proposals at the sect meeting. As for any elixir you want to refine in the future, just give it to me. I will make it whenever I am free.
Your things come first."
After hearing Zeng Woyou's words, Chen Mobai nodded with satisfaction and was about to have two more drinks with him, but he didn't know that the former couldn't hold himself back and rushed to the alchemy room.
"Senior Brother Chen, this spiritual essence method still needs to be tried with other elixirs first. I will go and help Master, you sit down..."
Not only Zeng Woyou, but also Yan Jinye, after saying these words, he ran out following his master's back.
Chen Mobai looked at the empty hall and couldn't help but smile. He raised his hand and drank the tea in his cup, then stood up and returned to Xiaonanshan.
Time flies by.
After Zeng Woyou obtained the Spirit Essence method, and after several attempts, he finally started refining the third batch of foundation-building pills.
Since the standards here in Donghuang are different from those in the Immortal Sect, the erysipelas only need to be less than half a percent to be considered successful in refining the elixir.
After mastering the method of spiritual extraction, Zeng Woyou finally mastered it.
Four pills were made in one batch, two pills were of high quality, and the other two pills were slightly defective, with more than half of the erysipelas content.
But for Donghuang, this is already a good result.
After all, this is the first time Zeng Woyou has practiced it. You must know that the four third-level alchemy masters in Huitian Valley have practiced it for the first time. Even with Yan Shaoyin's guidance, it only took two or three pills.
After Zeng Woyou completed the practice, he immediately became proud. During the sect meeting, he slammed four foundation-building pills on the table and glared at the Spiritual Planting Department and the Spiritual Beast Department who had originally written to stop him from refining the pill.
, director of the four departments of the Body Building Department and Talisman Making Department.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Senior Brother Zeng has achieved great success in alchemy. It is really a blessing for our sect."
Shi Fengping, the director of the Spiritual Planting Department, had a soft figure and immediately started complimenting Zeng Woyou with a smile, but he elicited a cold snort from the latter.
"From now on, you won't be able to buy even one of the pills I refine from my hands."
After hearing Zeng Woyou's very pointed words, Shi Fengping and others looked embarrassed. In the end, Chu Zuoshu coughed and smoothed things over.
"Now that the Foundation Establishment Pill has been mastered, Junior Brother Zeng will also have to work hard to use the chalcedony and golden zhi of the sect from now on."
After hearing what Chu Zuoshu said, Zeng Woyou looked overjoyed. If he wanted to break through to the level 4 alchemy master, he would first need to refine a large amount of level 3 elixirs.
The Foundation Establishment Pill is the third-level elixir that is most refined by all the major sects in the Eastern Wasteland. With the method of spiritual extraction, as long as he keeps refining it, he might actually be able to try to refine the fourth-level elixir in his lifetime.
"Then, these two high-quality foundation-building pills should be distributed to the true inheritance of the sect first. The two defective pills should be explained and auctioned to the immortal cultivating family who will follow our Shenmu Sect on the expedition to the top of the mountain this time."
As the head of the sect, Chu Zuoshu also determined the distribution of this furnace of foundation-building pills at the sect meeting.
Everything was done according to the rules, so it was unanimously approved.
The top two true disciples of the sect this time are Li Yixian and Luo Yixuan respectively.
Luo Yixuan, who was accompanying Zhuo Ming to bring rain to the spiritual field in Xiaonan Mountain, received the message from Shenmu City. She was so excited that she trembled all over. The spell seals in her hands were all wrong, causing several acres of the spiritual field to be flooded by rain.
.
"I'm sorry, senior sister!"
Luo Yixuan immediately gathered her spiritual power, stopped the rain technique, and then apologized continuously to Zhuo Ming beside her.
"It's okay. I'll just go down and sort it out. You can go and tell Master about this happy event."
Although Zhuo Ming was envious of Luo Yixuan's acquisition of the Foundation Establishment Pill, he was still very normal. After all, this junior sister's spiritual root talent was the most outstanding among the three of them.
Third, she had long expected to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill.
"Thank you for your hard work, Senior Sister. I will tell Master right now."
At this time, Luo Yixuan no longer had the reserve and elegance she usually pretended to do. Her little face shone brightly and she headed towards the top of Xiaonan Mountain with joy.
Chen Mobai's real body has been absorbing the rich spiritual energy and spiritual stones here to practice. He happened to be performing a round of exercises. When he heard the movement outside, he opened the cloud formation.
"Yes, I am very happy to be a teacher."
Luo Yixuan looked happy after hearing what Chen Mobai said. She felt that her efforts over the years had been recognized and she had not embarrassed her master.
"Has the sect contributed enough?"
"Disciple has saved more than 3,000 points over the years, and there is still a lot left to go."
Chen Mobai asked the key question, and Luo Yixuan lowered her head in embarrassment.
"My teacher will transfer you a contribution of 10,000 yuan, which you can use to exchange for foundation-building pills. Then you can use your contribution to go to Lingbao Pavilion to exchange for some formation talismans that can help with foundation-building, etc."
"Thank you Master, this is too much. I only need to borrow 7,000 to contribute. I have almost collected the rest to assist in foundation building over the years."
Luo Yixuan accompanied Chen Mobai in the expedition to the top of the mountain, and also obtained a lot of trophies. After being exchanged for spiritual stones, they were basically used to purchase spiritual objects for foundation building.
"There is no need to refuse. The contribution you three made in exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill has been prepared for you by my teacher. If you succeed in building the foundation in the future, you will return it to me. If you fail to build the foundation, I will treat it as a gift given to you by my teacher."
Chen Mobai smiled slightly, then took out his sect token and also sent a message to the other two disciples.
After a while, Liu Wenbai and Zhuo Ming also came over.
When Chen Mobai mentioned this matter, both disciples looked excited and saluted him.
"No need to be polite. I hope I can see that the three of you have successfully built the foundation next time I come out of seclusion as a teacher."
After saying this, Chen Mobai waved his hand and flew to Shenmu City with his three disciples.
He has sold Huolingmi to Chuixue Palace over the years, and his contribution to the account has not increased much, but it is still more than 50,000, no matter how small it is.
After allocating 10,000 yuan to each of his apprentices, Chen Mobai finally let go of the one thing he was worried about.
He returned to Xiaonan Mountain and continued to take Qi-tonifying spiritual water and practice in seclusion.
Time flies like water, and two years have passed very quickly.
On this day, Zhuo Ming, who was frowning at the mature green jade rice at the foot of the mountain, suddenly felt that the ground under her feet began to exude a trembling fear towards her.
She immediately turned her head and looked at the top of the mountain where her master was retreating.
I don't know when a bright mirror has appeared in the sky, reflecting the brilliance of the big sun, like a scorching sun, exuding majestic spiritual power that makes the Xiaonan Mountains fearful.
Zhuo Ming faced the scorching sun reflected in the bright mirror and felt the intense heat that she had never experienced since her cultivation as an immortal. Sweat oozed from her yellowish skin and soaked her clothes.
