War of the Supreme Mysteries

Chapter 145: Nine pills

Views:

Selecting inner elixirs is very simple. Use the five elements of spiritual energy to test them one by one. The ones that respond to the earth spiritual energy are the earth inner elixirs, and the ones that respond to the fire spiritual energy are the fire inner elixirs. After testing exactly four of them.

Purple inner elixirs are very valuable. One of them can be exchanged for a house. It is already very difficult to get twenty purple inner elixirs. It is even more difficult to get all four sets. However, Xuanhuang Celestial Master has a high position and is considered super in today’s terms. The rich man must have stored a large number of spiritual objects before he was rejuvenated. The cave before was probably where she kept her things.

Yamiao also helped him prepare the auxiliary materials, a set of auxiliary materials and a set of inner elixirs. He carried firewood and started a fire. The Tu tribe's elixir cauldron was similar to a point-and-shoot camera. The smelting and blending were completed automatically. It was very simple.

The waterfall can take away the smoke, and the air in the cave is not dirty. Wu Dongfang sits beside the alchemy cauldron and lights the fire in boredom. Occasionally he curses to himself. It is wrong to curse, but cursing does bring peace of mind. The effect is that if you hold back your anger, you may become an insidious pervert.

After calming down, he thought about what was going on outside. The Tu tribe and the Shui tribe should be fighting fiercely now. The attitudes of the Wood tribe and the Fire tribe were unclear. Yamiao once said that the Shui tribe's holy wizard Xun Shuang was in the untransformed state and was not Yun Ping. opponent, to say the least, even if Xun Shuang is very powerful, she is no match for the Tu clan wizard. There is no suspense in this battle. Just like the Tu clan fighting the Jin clan, the result will be misfortune for the Shui clan and a tragic victory for the Tu clan.

Yamiao probably left here to look for Si Shaokang, or maybe to find an old friend from the past to study how to kill the magic wizard. In short, she went to do business. However, she doesn't get along with the Holy Wizard of the Fire Tribe, and the Wood Tribe is weak. She may not be able to recruit a large number of helpers. Unless she kills the magic wizard, she won't be able to change the world.

No matter how lively the fight outside is, it has nothing to do with him, because he is no match for the Tu Clan's wizards. It is a game between masters. He, who is half-baked in Taichu, can fight against ordinary Celestial Masters, but he can't get in the fight against top masters now. Get started.

Advance to Taixuan as soon as possible and retrieve the two lost holy skills of the Jin clan. Only with strong strength can you participate in higher-level battles and have the ability to influence the development of events.

The former is very simple. You can quickly advance to Taixuan by swallowing ammunition and practicing diligently. But the latter is more difficult, but it is not without skills. The prince can read minds. Mingzhao's corpse has not rotted and his eyes are still there. Now, if the prince gets back the inner elixir, he might be able to read something through the corpse's eyes. If this method doesn't work, then there is only one way left, which is to look for Ming Zhao or the souls of previous Jin clan holy witches. If you can't find it above, try to find it in the ghost world. No matter how much trouble it takes, it's worth it. As long as you get these two holy skills, you will basically be invincible.

Six hours is twelve hours. The next morning there was the sound of frying beans in the alchemy cauldron. Wu Dongfang began to feel worried. He knew nothing about alchemy, and Yamiao did not make it clear when the elixir would be considered ready. .

Just when he was wondering whether he should lift the pot, a pill rolled out of the hole on the north side of the alchemy cauldron and fell into the groove outside the alchemy cauldron.

"It turns out it's automatic." Wu Dongfang picked up the yellow pill, felt it was hot, and put it back.

I don’t know who designed this elixir. There are swirl patterns inside. After the elixir is formed, it starts to roll to remove impurities. When it is rounded, it rolls out. The swirl patterns inside the elixir are similar to the rifling of the barrel of a standard firearm. The difference is that the former spins pills, while the latter spins bullets.

After half an hour, five more small balls were rolled out. Only one was a yellow pill, and the others were black and white beads formed from impurities. These were waste.

The elixir refined from animal inner elixirs also has a scent, but it is not a floral scent but an animal scent such as musk. After a short look, Wu Dongfang opened his mouth and swallowed the elixir. He ate both of them. Only he could use this thing. , no one else can use it, and there is no use keeping it.

As soon as the spiritual energy was activated, one of the elixirs immediately began to release spiritual energy. The speed and quantity of the elixir releasing spiritual energy were similar to those of the previous elixirs. It can be seen that the elixirs obtained in the monkey cave were also refined with purple inner elixirs. of.

After trying the elixirs, there was no problem. Wu Dongfang returned to the bed and fell asleep. When he woke up, he continued to refine the elixirs. After practicing Qi, he had plenty of time. The first thing to do was to turn these inner elixirs into Qi-tonifying elixirs, just in case the Tu tribe came over. , I suffered a big loss before I finished practicing the elixir.

One furnace per day, four furnaces every four days, three furnaces for the second furnace, and two furnaces for the other two furnaces, no more, no less, exactly the number that Yamiao said, nine.

This shows the gap. Not only does Yamiao know the alchemy cauldrons well, he also knows how much spiritual energy these inner alchemy contain.

After confirming that there would be no side effects from taking too much, Wu Dongfang practiced one furnace and ate one. After four furnaces, he ate nine pills. The elixir was not big, about the same size as a soybean. Let alone nine, it was just a handful. It won't last.

After practicing the elixir, Wu Dongfang stood in front of the elixir and looked at it with his head tilted. He was considering whether to destroy the elixir. He now has nine Qi-boosting elixirs. Although it is not a lot, it is enough. , compared with other wizards, it is undoubtedly a lot. If the alchemy is destroyed at this time, the Tu tribe will have no advantage at all. It is better to destroy it after weighing the pros and cons. But it's a bit unjustifiable emotionally. Killing someone as soon as they finish their work is like killing the donkey.

After thinking about it for a long time, forget it and hide it.

Where to hide? Under the Tibetan Pool, I haven't taken a bath for a long time, so I just took the opportunity to take a bath.

Winter is coming and the water is very cold. After Wu Dongfang dived in, he found that the pool was very deep. The water fell from a high place, creating a great impact. For many years, the depth of the pool under the cliff actually reached thirty or forty meters deep. He did not sink the alchemy cauldron directly, but hid it in the stone wall at the edge of the pool.

There are not monsters in every deep water, and there are none here either. There are only fish and shrimps in the pools.

For safety reasons, he left here after hiding the alchemy. The safest place is to keep changing places.

Before leaving, he touched the stone bed in the cave and left some spiritual energy. This move had two uses. First, he could feel someone touching the stone bed. Second, he needed a path to guide him when he escaped from the earth. , if you are seriously injured in the future and use Earth Escape to escape, you can follow the route back here.

He changed out of the Heavenly Master's robe. The red and purple color was too conspicuous, so it was more convenient to wear casual clothes. The sunset bow and quiver are also packed in a rectangular wooden box. He can control the five elements. All he needs to do is use the bow and arrow to directly scatter the wooden box. The most important thing is that the bow and arrow are long-range weapons, which are easier to use to attack distant targets. At his level of cultivation, he wouldn't be able to use it normally.

After leaving the cave, Wu Dongfang walked southeast. Compared with the previous escapes, this time was much easier. He spent most of his time meditating in the mountains. When encountering a city, he would hide his identity and go in to buy some food. So I chose to go southeast because this direction was the most likely escape direction for Ming Yue and Wang Ye Fan Tong.

This is still the border of Yangzhou, and the wizards in Yangzhou have been abolished by him. The abolishment of the wizards has not affected the lives of the people in Yangzhou. The wizards of the Tu tribe are different from the wizards of the other four tribes. The wizards of the other four tribes all live in the villages. , shouldering the responsibility of protecting the tribe and treating diseases for the tribe, and the Tu tribe wizards do not live in the village, but live in the tribe and the capital. They are a privileged class separated from the masses, a bit like the Eight Banners children. Not many Tu tribe people like wizards, and the wizards treat them badly. The impact on their lives is not great. What determines their livelihood is the imperial power and royal power.

The Tu people already have the prototype of a feudal society. In backward places, the influence of theocracy is greater, that is, the influence of wizards is greater. In civilized places, imperial power is more valued, and officials at all levels are more authoritative.

This was an era when imperial power and divine power coexisted. It was a big drawback for wizards to participate in politics, because there could only be one person who had the final say. Two people having the final say would definitely be detrimental to the implementation of government affairs and the development of people's livelihood. Wizards are the guardians of the royal family. The leader is also a constraint on the royal family, and sooner or later he will withdraw from the stage of power.

Withdrawing wizards from the center of power and turning them into sorcerers and Taoist priests, who understand the mysteries but do not interfere in politics, is a move that benefits the country and the people, and this is what we will do from now on.

A month later, Wu Dongfang arrived at the border of Yangzhou. Going further southeast was the no-man's land. Crossing the no-man's land was the border of the Fire Tribe. It was already winter. Although it didn't snow, it was very cold. After thinking about it, he Instead of going into the mountains, he settled in a remote small tribe in the south of Yangzhou. If the prince and others were in the mountains, this would be the most likely place to come when replenishing salt supplies.

Although this tribe is small, its trade is developed. From time to time, people from the Fire Tribe come from the south to exchange business with the Tu Tribe. There are inns in the tribe, and Wu Dongfang lives in one of the inns.

At this time, there were no telephones or telegrams, not even letters, and the news was very limited. The Tu and Shui tribes were at war in the northwest. People here didn’t know how the war was going. Many people didn’t even know that the Shui and Tu tribes were at war. What they talked about the most was The previous war between the Jin tribe and the Tu tribe.

Due to their different stances, the Tu people and the Fire people have different views on him. In the eyes of the Tu people, he is a vicious gangster, but in the eyes of the Fire people, he is a hero who rises up to fight.

Although the wizards of the Jin tribe were killed by the Tu tribe, they gained respect from outsiders. When the Jin tribe is mentioned, the first reaction of the Tu tribe is that they cannot be provoked. The Fire Tribe admired the Jin Tribe's bravery. Not only did they not take the opportunity to bully the Jin Tribe, they also funded the Jin Tribe with a large amount of rice, grain, and shell coins.

The cold wind was howling outside, and Wu Dongfang was sitting in the corner drinking alone, quietly listening to everyone's mixed comments and comments.

At this moment, a young man wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat came in from the door. After this person came in, he walked straight to the counter, grabbed a handful of shell coins from his arms and put it on the counter, "Shopkeeper, give me something to eat. Grab some, I'm in a hurry and will leave right away."

"It's already dark, but we still have vacancies here," the store owner said.

"I don't live in the hotel." The young man became anxious and bypassed the counter and went to the kitchen.

Because the man was wearing a hat on his head, Wu Dongfang couldn't see his appearance clearly, but he felt that the man looked familiar and his voice was familiar. He must have seen him before.

At this time, the young man had already walked out of the kitchen, holding a half-cooked leg of lamb in his hand, and walked quickly to the door.

Just when Wu Dongfang recalled where he had seen this person, a dazzling fire appeared outside, and in an instant, two human-shaped flames fell outside the store door, "Thief, where are you going!"
