Chapter 170 "Datang Dandian" Part 2
Yan Zixiu didn't care about the landlord's utilitarianism and indifference, because he knew that everything was temporary. From the human heart, no one wanted to be utilitarian and indifferent. Utilitarianism and indifference were just the results of long-term alienation.
So for a wise person, if the world is not so friendly, he will not become unfriendly.
The landlord took the fee and left, and Yan Zixiu used the dust-purifying technique to clean the room. Now he has learned more and more small magic spells for cultivating immortals.
There are three rooms, one of which is a bedroom and training room, with a bed, a table and a futon. The two outside rooms are a kitchen, a living room, or an alchemy room. You can arrange it yourself.
Although there is a place to make alchemy, before learning how to make alchemy, you must first go to the registration office of the Immortal Ascension Conference to register.
Yan Zixiu inquired all the way and came to the south gate of the tall and towering city lord's mansion. There were already a huge number of applicants here, with at least a few thousand people.
According to insiders, this Immortal Ascension Conference is not only recruiting new members from Shenxiao Sect, but also eight other large, medium and small sects. Shenxiao Sect is recruiting 100 people, and the other eight sects are recruiting 100 people in total.
The total number of applicants, based on previous estimates, will not be less than 100,000.
Only 200 people were recruited out of more than 100,000 people? Yan Zixiu thought it was a bit difficult.
Just take one step at a time.
He found the registration point of Shenxiao Sect and saw four tables spread out. They were labeled "Registration Office for Material Submission", "Registration Office for Arena Competition", "Tianling Root Testing Office" and "Specialty Registration Office".
Sitting behind were some monks wearing sky blue robes.
The first two tables have the largest queues, with thousands of people each.
There are almost no people at the Tianlinggen detection area. It seems that Tianlinggen is very rare.
There were hundreds of people queuing up at the specialty registration desk.
The more Yan Zixiu looked at it, the more he felt that the situation in front of him was a bit like the college entrance examination in the local world. He shook his head to get rid of these random thoughts and went to line up at the specialty registration office.
After waiting for half an hour, it was his turn.
"What's your name? Where do you belong? How old are you? What spiritual roots? What realm? What specialties should you apply for?" The person in charge of registration here is a male monk who is in the middle stage of foundation building and has gray hair. He seems to be quite old.
Yan Zixiu made observations while lining up at the back and had already prepared a draft: "Yan Ziling, a casual cultivator in Fulong Mountain, twenty-three years old, with five spiritual roots, eighth level of Qi training, and specializes in elixir refining."
Five spiritual roots? As soon as this statement came out, a lot of people looked at him with contempt. Isn’t this a useless spiritual root?
Twenty-three years old? Eighth level of Qi training? Those eyes turned to curiosity again. How could Feilinggen cultivate to this level at such a young stage?
Their specialty is elixir refining? It suddenly dawned on these people that it turned out that they had achieved this state by taking elixirs.
Yan Zixiu didn't know that the people around him were speculating and making assumptions.
The gray-haired monk was confused and a little unsure. He said to a young Qi-training monk next to him: "Go and ask Elder Meng to come."
"Yes." The young man turned around and left. After a while, he brought a middle-aged Jindan monk with thick eyebrows, big eyes and a dark complexion.
"Deacon Gu, what do you want from me?" The middle-aged monk seemed a little impatient in his tone.
"That's it, Elder Meng." The gray-haired Deacon Gu quickly introduced the situation, "Looking at this situation, should you allow him to sign up?"
Elder Meng looked at Yan Zixiu and felt that this man was not nervous or worried, but as calm as water, unfazed by honor or disgrace.
This guy has a good temperament.
He made an evaluation in his mind and said to Deacon Gu: "You are here to sign up for specialties. If you have specialties, let them apply. Does the waste spiritual root have anything to do with you?"
"Yes, yes, what Elder Meng said is true." Deacon Gu turned to Yan Zixiu and said, "Pay the registration fee of five spiritual stones. This is your jade token. Gather here in nine days for the alchemy assessment. The assessment is for
The content is explained in the jade plaque."
Yan Zixiu had already made two preparations. He would submit rare materials if he was not allowed to apply for the specialty assessment. Now that the application is allowed here, there is no need to worry about it: "Thank you, Elder Meng, and thank you, Deacon Gu."
He handed over five spiritual stones, received the jade token, and went to sit down on a stone to see what the assessment content was.
There are three assessments in total.
In the first item, identifying medicinal materials, the examiner will randomly present several kinds of spiritual flowers, spiritual herbs, demonic beast inner elixirs and other items, and those who identify the most and fastest will be ranked. If the identification rate is too low, the candidates will be eliminated.
The second item is to identify medicinal properties, randomly provide several kinds of alchemy materials, and rank the medicinal properties with the most and fastest identified properties. There is also a certain elimination rate.
The third item is alchemy, which involves using a uniformly equipped mid-grade alchemy furnace and alchemy materials to refine designated elixirs, and rank them based on the quantity and quality of the elixirs produced.
This is to recruit alchemy talents with real talents and knowledge.
Yan Zixiu felt that the book "Introduction to Alchemy" he bought in Xiangzhang Ancient Town was not enough.
Although there are many classics on Yaowang Mountain in Immortal Mansion, there is no guarantee that they are completely corresponding to the world of immortality. Therefore, it is better to buy more detailed and comprehensive local alchemy classics.
By the way, go to Qianbao Pavilion.
The Qianbao Pavilion in Purple Mist City is ten times more impressive than the one in Lanxin City. It is magnificent and dazzling with treasures. People with insufficient spiritual stones may not dare to enter.
As soon as Yan Zixiu entered the door, a beautiful female cultivator in charge of reception came up to him: "Fellow Taoist, what do you need?"
"I need the best alchemy classics, including identification of medicinal materials, identification of medicinal properties, commonly used elixir recipes and methods of alchemy."
The welcoming female cultivator smiled and said: "It seems that fellow Taoists have signed up for the alchemy assessment at the Immortal Ascension Conference. You have come here at the right time. We have a book of "The Alchemy Code of the Tang Dynasty" here, and what you mentioned is all in it. That's it.
The price is a bit expensive.”
"Oh? How expensive is it?"
"Five thousand spiritual stones."
"Can it be cheaper?" Yan Zixiu thought, no wonder Cha Xiang said that the path of alchemy is not friendly to casual cultivators. Five thousand spiritual stones. Taoist monk Cha Xiang had to save for more than ten years without eating or drinking.
"Then four thousand and eighty, no more."
Yan Zi pretended to be on vacation and hesitated for a while: "I don't have enough spiritual stones, can I sell some materials?"
"Okay. Fellow Taoist, please come with me."
Yan Zixiu sold most of the spiritual flowers and herbs given to him by Xiangyun, and collected 4,800 spiritual stones, and obtained a jade book.
After leaving Qianbao Pavilion, Yan Zixiu thought to himself, if he didn't use the things in the Immortal Mansion and the Qiankun Ring, he would be really poor now.
I can’t think so much anymore, I have to go back to study and practice as soon as possible.
He returned to his residence, closed the door and opened the jade book.
This jade book is very wonderful. The flower and plant material identification part in it will present various flowers, plants, animals and minerals in a three-dimensional hologram, with colors, sounds, fragrances and touches, vivid and vivid, making people feel like they are there. There are detailed labels, names, nicknames,
The origin, functions and effects of each part, picking season, processing methods, precautions, etc. are very detailed.
You get what you pay for, expensive for a reason.
Yan Zixiu often drinks puzzle tea, and most of the tea he drinks is original enlightenment tea, so his mind is very good and he can be said to have a photographic memory. Two hours later, the identification parts of thousands of alchemy medicinal materials have been memorized in his mind
.
After studying, he was going to go out to relax. When he opened the door, he saw that it was getting dark. The neighbors in the east and north houses hadn't come back yet.
Yan Zixiu was very busy today, renting a house, signing up, buying books, studying, and was never idle for a while.
