Chapter 431: Alchemy failed
After coming out of Tianqi's cave, Cui Chen went to visit Yuzhang again.
After Cui Chen explained his purpose of coming, he successfully obtained the list of monks entering and leaving the treasure house from his disciples.
Added together with the list given by Qingxuan, it almost covers everything.
There are three monks in the Void Refining Stage, twenty-seven monks in the Divine Transformation Stage, and there are hundreds of Nascent Souls.
Fortunately, monks have a strong memory and have a photographic memory.
But Cui Chen felt very troubled when he looked at the long list in his hand.
Although there are very few monks who can spend more than two million merit points at once, it seems that only the three monks in the Void Refining Stage are possible, but it is not ruled out that a wealthy monk hides behind the scenes and orders low-level monks to do things.
.
Cui Chen had no choice but to try his best to investigate.
Anyway, Yin Ming Tie will never give up.
Upon returning to the cave, Cui Chen summoned the succubus.
"What are your orders, Master?" The succubus bowed respectfully, like a maid from a wealthy family.
"Your next task is to secretly check the monks on the list and make sure to find the whereabouts of Yinming Iron. After that, I allow you to seize a physical body and resume your path." Cui Chen added the list.
Hand it to her and command in a solemn voice.
With the succubus's illusion skills, those monks at the stage of becoming gods and below are absolutely powerless to resist. As soon as they come into contact with the succubus, the other party will unconsciously fall into the illusion and unknowingly tell the succubus the answer.
As for the three Void Refining Stage monks, Cui Chen guessed that he could only ignore them for the time being and wait until the succubus eliminated the other monks.
"Yes, slave, go right now!"
When the succubus heard this, his eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed at the result, and took action.
Later, in the name of collecting spiritual materials for Cui Chen, the succubus quietly came into contact with the monks on the list.
After Cui Chen settled Hongyu and Xie Zhi, he practiced in seclusion again.
Judging from this incident, the water in Tianyuan City is deeper than he thought, and he needs to improve his strength as soon as possible.
After taking a Qingxu Pill, Cui Chen's cultivation level increased rapidly and steadily.
In the blink of an eye, a year passed quietly.
Cui Chen slowly opened his eyes.
Feeling the growing mana in the body, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
According to the current speed of cultivation, he estimated that it would take about thirty years to break through to the middle stage of Void Refining, and the pills in his hands would be almost exhausted by then.
He got up and walked out of the quiet room, inspecting Hongyu and Xie Zhi.
The two spiritual pets are both in retreat. Judging from the auras emanating from them, their cultivation levels have increased significantly.
The succubus is still walking outside and has not found any news about Yinming Iron. However, she has turned around twice and brought back some materials for making weapons and talismans.
Cui Chen put away these materials, turned around and went to the quiet room to refine the Taiyi Huaqing Talisman.
Maybe practice makes perfect, or maybe it’s the bonus brought by solid cultivation. This time, both the success rate and the quality of the finished talisman have been greatly improved compared to the last time.
Cui Chen didn't finish refining the talisman until all the materials in his hand were exhausted.
Leave a few dozen of the talismans in the warehouse and ask the succubus to trade them in exchange for spiritual materials.
Then he returned to the quiet room and continued to take pills and practice.
After another year passed, Cui Chen came out of seclusion again.
Because of the Taiyi Purifying Talisman, the succubus obtained a spiritual fruit in this transaction.
It is about the size of a fist, plump and round, seems to be filled with transparent coconut milk, and exudes an alluring aroma.
When his spiritual thoughts swept across the inside of this spiritual fruit, a lifelike little dragon-shaped fruit core was suddenly wrapped inside, which was crystal clear and lifelike.
This mini dragon itself did not show any signs of life, but it exuded extremely pure spiritual energy. Even if Cui Chen just glanced at it with his mind, he felt extremely relaxed physically and mentally.
"Zhilongguo!"
The moment Cui Chen saw this fruit, its information appeared in his mind.
This is the main ingredient of the elixir "Soaring Dragon Pill" that can only be used by monks in the Void Refining Stage. It only takes 30,000 years to bear fruit. Even if it is taken alive, it can increase a lot of mana out of thin air.
Cui Chen decided to practice with it.
As for other auxiliary spiritual herbs for refining the Soaring Dragon Pill, Cui Chen could easily get them from his hands.
Taking the fruit to the alchemy room, Cui Chen crossed his legs on the ground, opened his mouth and spit out a small cauldron. It was the Xutian cauldron.
This cauldron was spiritually damaged during the battle with Yuan Cha in the lower realm, but in recent years, it has been nourished by Cui Chen's pure magic power and has recovered as before, and has even grown a lot.
He raised his hand and struck out a spell, and the small cauldron immediately spun around, expanded in size, became about a foot in size, and landed on the ground in front of Cui Chen.
Then Cui Chen opened his mouth again and spit out a wisp of blazing white flames. As the wind rose, the entire secret room suddenly became unbearably hot.
Cui Chen pointed at the giant cauldron, and the blazing white flames immediately rushed up and enveloped the giant cauldron.
When the giant cauldron was heated up, Cui Chen flicked the storage bag on his waist, and after a flash of five-colored rays of light, each jade box appeared.
The lid of the box was carefully opened, revealing dozens of different spiritual herbs. Although they were not comparable to the Zhilong fruit, they were valuable items to many monks.
Cui Chen casually threw one of the spiritual grasses into the giant cauldron, then played out a set of magic formulas in his hand and began to concentrate on refining it.
The complexity of refining the Tenglong Pill is rare in Cui Chen's life. Just to combine several auxiliary materials for this pill requires a separate refinement, which takes a long time.
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and all the spiritual herbs had been refined. After Cui Chen took a long breath, his eyes flashed, and he raised his hand and threw all the materials, including the Zhilong Fruit, into the cauldron.
Then seal the tripod lid...
Cui Chen stayed in the alchemy room for half a month. When he came out again, his face was full of bad luck.
There is no doubt that this alchemy failed.
The difficulty of refining the Tenglong Pill was undoubtedly beyond his expectation. No wonder there are so few pills of this level on the market. Even if an alchemist refines some, they are not enough to be taken by oneself to break through the bottleneck.
Be willing to take it out easily.
It was only because Cui Chen was appreciated by several elders in the integration stage that he received ten bottles of elixirs for daily practice.
Although Cui Chen felt a little depressed about this failure, he also accumulated a lot of experience through this failure. With his financial resources, he was still sure to collect the raw materials for refining the Soaring Dragon Pill again.
And he left the core of the Zhilong fruit. As long as it grows and sprouts, when his son-in-law arrives, won't there be endless elixirs?
Thinking of this, the depression in his heart dissipated a lot.
