Alchemy and alchemy are two completely different realms.
Alchemy is only at the stage of refining alchemy, and the elixir is refined step by step according to the prescription. Even the most skilled alchemist can only say that he knows the art of alchemy, not the way of alchemy.
There are three thousand Tao, and the Tao of Alchemy is also one of them. When it comes to the root of "Tao", it is not just as simple as alchemy on the surface, but also every detail of the alchemy process and the principles involved. What is alchemy? The principle is that when refining the healing elixir, you must have a mindset of saving others, and refine the elixir wholeheartedly so that you can save more people, or when refining the soul-nourishing elixir, you must concentrate your mental energy. To feel that your soul will sublimate with the refined elixirs, and to refine the elixirs that enhance your realm, you need to feel the emotions that enhance your realm, such as happiness, excitement, etc...
That way it can be considered as truly integrating into the art of alchemy, rather than being as simple as alchemy.
Just like the three realms of Buddhism: seeing mountains as mountains, seeing water as water, seeing mountains as not mountains, seeing water as not being water, finally seeing mountains as mountains, seeing water as water is the same.
Now, Yang Wu is still in the first realm, while Gu Qing has entered the second realm.
The elixir refined by Yang Wu is more perfect than that of Gu Qing, but the elixir refined by Gu Qing is more careful than that of Yang Wu. The former is because of his great talent and the training of Xiao Hei's alchemy skills, and his growth is amazing. The latter is because he likes alchemy, so More attentive, even if his talent is slightly worse than Yang Wu, he is better than Yang Wu in his concentration.
After Gu Qing explained his understanding of alchemy, it was time for Yang Wu to talk.
At this time, the little lion flame beast next to Gu Qing was completely leaning in his arms, like a docile kitten, very quiet and not hurtful at all.
Yang Wu first sighed softly and said: "Listening to your words, it's like seeing the moon through the clouds. I understand what alchemy is. I'm not as good as you in this regard."
"You are being humble." Gu Qing responded gently.
The next moment, Yang Wu also started his talk about the way of alchemy.
Even though Yang Wu is in the first Buddhist realm, his alchemy skills are not random, but are actually passed down by Xiao Hei. His alchemy recipes are all-encompassing, and his understanding of various herbal medicines has already exceeded Gu Qing's knowledge. Category, Gu Qing listened to Yang Wu's explanation, his face first showed a look of thinking, then became solemn, and finally laughed in realization. This expression kept switching, it was really funny.
Yang Wu shared some insights based on his own alchemy experience, and gained a lot from the alchemy that Gu Qing just talked about. After mutual confirmation, there was a vague opportunity to touch the alchemy.
As Yang Wu was talking, Gu Qing couldn't help but interrupt when he encountered some questions he didn't understand.
As a result, the two kept communicating and discussing, confirming their respective methods of alchemy, and both gained great benefits from each other.
As they talked, they talked about more advanced elixirs and some of the elements that would lead to promotion to a holy pharmacist in the future. At this point, Yang Wu clearly had an advantage over Gu Qing.
After all, Xiao Hei's advanced alchemy technique includes the elements of refining the holy elixir, but Gu Qing is not yet qualified to get involved.
As Gu Qing listened, he became a disciple who learned with humility and kept asking Yang Wu about various advanced elixirs. Yang Wu also explained it to Gu Qing without hesitation, and Gu Qing gained a lot.
As Yang Wu and Gu Qing's alchemy skills deepened, Yang Wu revealed some of the advanced alchemy skills passed down to him by many Xiaohei. It was as if a fairy pharmacist was possessing him and preaching, and thousands of herbs kept emerging in the air. , each plant represents a different medicinal property, there is an ancient cauldron floating and rising, and it seems that an ancient alchemist is making fire to make elixirs. The differences are extremely shocking.
These are all methods of alchemy involving holy elixirs, which invisibly affect the changes in the earth's fire veins.
I saw that the fire lions and flame beasts were constantly spitting out flames, and the wisps of flames were controlled by them in a decent manner, unlike before, they only knew how to spray and burn randomly, and did not know how to control the size of the firepower or how to control the fire.
The Fire Lion Flame Beast listened to the elixir theory of the two peerless geniuses, which played a great role in making them stronger. Yang Wu and Gu Qing became their great benefactors, among which Yang Wu contributed the most.
Although Gu Qing only touched the surface of alchemy, as Yang Wu absorbed Gu Qing's alchemy and integrated it into the alchemy knowledge passed down by Xiao Hei, he also began to touch his own Tao.
Yang Wu felt as if he had gone back to ancient times, tasting hundreds of herbs and refining hundreds of elixirs. He had a deep understanding of the medicinal properties of each herb and was very attentive to refining each elixir. He experienced what Gu Qing said. It feels like this feeling is completely performed by his Divine Court Daohua, which is similar to his meditation practice.
Suddenly, streaks of flaming herbs emerged from the earth's fire veins. The flames were shaped like a fire lotus, with seven or forty-nine petals blooming, and the lotus heart formed the shape of a fire lion and flame beast, which looked extremely vivid.
In an instant, many fire lotuses absorbed the rich fire energy here, the petals became more delicate and the fragrance became more fragrant.
Gu Qing was brought back to his senses by the scent of flowers. He looked towards the earth fire veins, with a look of horror on his face and murmured: "Tao Sheng Fire Lotus, this... this legendary strange appearance has appeared!"
On the Sunset Peak, many herbs with Fire Xuan Qi are growing crazily. Ordinary herbs have become elixirs, while those that were originally elixirs have quickly been promoted to become medicine kings. The strong medicinal fragrance covers the Sunset Peak, and there is quite a feeling everywhere. The Taoist rhyme of the holy medicine.
The people who were managing the medicine garden at Sunset Peak couldn't help but exclaimed when they discovered this change.
"A lot of herbal medicines have advanced. What's going on?"
"They seem to have been injected with some essence and power, and they have become full of vitality overnight. It's incredible."
"Look, the fire profound energy in our Sunset Peak seems to be much stronger. Could it be that there has been a big change in the earth's fire veins?"
"It seems that it really came from the earth's fire veins. I vaguely heard someone talking about alchemy."
"Look, among those two shadows in the sky, one is Senior Brother Gu Qing. Who is the other?"
"This... what is going on? How could they appear above Sunset Peak!"
…
Everyone in Sunset Peak was dumbfounded.
Two illusory figures actually appeared on the top of their peak, one was Gu Qing and the other was Yang Wu. It was the process of their discussion about alchemy that was reflected.
After the disciples of the Alchemy Pavilion were surprised at first, they soon became addicted to the wonderful feeling of the two people discussing alchemy. Many issues about alchemy that they did not understand became suddenly clear. Some disciples felt that they had finally touched the edge of the spiritual medicine master, and some felt that they had finally touched the edge of the elixir. It is to advance to the level of Medicine King, and some people even have the possibility of being promoted to Heavenly Medicine Master.
All of this was influenced by the two young men in the sky who touched the elixir, which helped them understand more about what alchemy is.
There was a holy pharmacist in the Dan Pavilion who was alarmed.
This holy pharmacist is also the only true holy pharmacist of the Hengshan sect. He is already very old. He is an old monster who has lived for an unknown number of years. He is sitting cross-legged on the highest floor of the Dan Pavilion. A pair of holy eyes are looking through the window at everything outside. Nothing can escape his induction.
He said in a faint voice: "All the disciples of the Alchemy Pavilion should listen carefully and understand the way of alchemy."
Whether they were ordinary disciples, true disciples, or the Little Saint Medicine Master, they all responded in unison: "It's the Peak Master!"
That holy pharmacist is the master of Sunset Peak, one of the nine most powerful figures in the Hengshan Sect.
The holy pharmacist looked at the phantom and murmured: "The future life is to be feared."
After saying that, his holy soul separated a ray and flew towards the depths of the earth's fire veins.
Many people from other peaks of the Hengshan Sect also noticed the strange changes in the Sunset Peak. They looked at the sudden rise of the Sunset Peak, and their eyes were filled with surprise.
Many saints and elders were alarmed.
They looked at Sunset Peak's momentum soaring into the sky like a pillar of fire, with surprise and deep envy. They all knew that Sunset Peak would usher in a surging development, and the disciples in the peak would grow rapidly. The position in the sect will be stronger.
"The Sunset Peak Alchemy Path is flourishing. God has blessed our Hengshan sect. Maybe there will be another holy pharmacist in the near future. Then our Hengshan sect will have a higher status among the Five Mountains Sect."
"Of those two young shadows, I know one is that boy Gu Qing. Who is the other young man? Is he a recent disciple of Sunset Peak?"
"Probably not. If so, the old guy will definitely come to us to show off. However, since he appears in our Hengshan and understands the way of alchemy, his achievements in the future will be extraordinary. We in Hengshan will do our best to keep him here. , if you can't stay, you should try your best to be on good terms with him, it will only be good for us in Hengshan and not bad."
"Well, of course."
…
On the Nanyue Peak, there was a middle-aged man and a young woman standing together, looking in the direction of the Sunset Peak, taking in all the different features of the Sunset Peak.
The middle-aged man is very elegant. He is dressed in white, his long hair is tied with sky silk, and he wears a golden headband on his forehead. There is a blood-red crystal in the center of the headband, which makes him look extremely dazzling. He has a handsome face, bright eyes, an emerald jade belt tied around his waist, and a pair of jade boots under his feet, with wind patterns outlined on them. These are a pair of holy boots that can increase speed.
The middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his back, and there was an aura of looking down on the world in his eyes, which was intoxicating. He was the father of Shu Yujun, Shu Yucheng, the current leader of the Hengshan Sect, and he possessed the power of a holy person.
In the Wuyue Sect, every sect leader has the strength of a saint. If he is not a saint, he will not be able to control a sect of hundreds of thousands of people.
"Is he the Yang Wu you mentioned?" Shu Yucheng asked calmly, looking in the direction of Sunset Peak.
"Yes, Dad, I didn't expect his alchemy skills to be so good. It seems that Junior Brother Gu Qing is impressed by him." Shu Yujunmei responded with a hint of color in her eyes.
"Haha, the young man who can attract my daughter's attention is certainly extraordinary. It would be a pity if he only knew how to make alchemy, but he has already understood the way of alchemy, which will not delay his martial arts. He is an all-rounder. Boy, not bad, not bad." Shu Yucheng said with a satisfied smile.
"Dad, what are you talking about?" Shu Yujun said shyly.
