C125 Imparting the Dao of Alchemy
"Thank you, Master." Xu Feng had an excited expression on his face. With Jiang Haojing's help, he would be able to break through to the Celestial Essence Stage in no time.
...
On this day, Xu Feng stood in front of the pill furnace, continuously injecting Yuan energy into it. He was trying to refine the Third Grade Medicine Pill.
However, Xu Feng was only a Middle Period of Martial Essence Stage warrior. It was too difficult for him to refine the Third Grade Medicine Pill.
While controlling his Yuan energy to stimulate the Pill Fire flame, he paid close attention to the situation inside the pill furnace. As long as there was any unusual movement, he would use all his strength to withdraw his Yuan energy and cool down the pill furnace as fast as possible to ensure the survival rate of the Medicine Pill.
His mind was extremely tense, and his Yuan energy was continuously being poured out. Xu Feng also felt physically and mentally exhausted, but he did not give up. He still gritted his teeth and persisted.
"Disciple, the biggest difference between the Second Grade Pill Alchemist and the Third Grade Pill Alchemist, do you know where it is?" Jiang Haojing stood at the side, looking at Xu Feng, whose face was covered in sweat, and spoke with confidence.
"The Second Grade Pill Alchemist can be formed in the Martial Essence Stage, but the Third Grade Medicine Pill must be broken through to the Celestial Essence Stage. Because the amount of Yuan energy required to refine the Third Grade Medicine Pill is not something that a Martial Essence Stage can compare with. "
"That's right. A Third Grade Medicine Pill can only be refined by someone who isn't a Celestial Essence Stage. This is common knowledge. However, do you know that a Martial Essence Stage Pill Alchemist can be refined into a Third Grade Medicine Pill?"
"What?" Xu Feng was shocked. This was the first time he had heard such a thing. If it wasn't for his master, he would have thought that the person who said it was either a madman or a fool.
His emotions fluctuated. The Yuan energy in Xu Feng's hand was unstable. A few muffled sounds rang out from within the pill furnace, and then a puff of green smoke emerged. This was the first time he had refined a Third Grade Medicine Pill. It ended in failure. It was only Jiang Haojing and Xu Feng who had tried to break through to the Martial Essence Stage. If it were anyone else... They wouldn't even dare to think about it. One failure... The cost would be terrifyingly high.
"Yes, a Martial Essence Stage Pill Alchemist can become a Third Grade Pill Alchemist, but..." After a pause, Jiang Haojing continued, "It's just that the conditions are extremely harsh, requiring the Origin Energy contained within a Martial Essence Stage Dantian. Yuan energy is thicker than the Yuan energy of an ordinary person. Just this point alone... It's very hard to do."
It was not just difficult, it was simply difficult to reach the heavens. Forcefully opening up one's dantian, if one wasn't careful, one's cultivation would be completely crippled. The meridians in all four limbs would all be broken, and the more serious ones would directly explode and die without even a corpse left behind. Normal people really wouldn't dare to rashly try.
"There is a second point. The Third Grade Medicine Pill is far better than the Second Grade Medicinal Pill. Not only does it display the strength of a martial artist, but it also shows the strength of a martial artist. It also shows the retention of the medicinal strength. When a Third Grade Pill Alchemist is refined into a first-grade Medicine Pill, its effects are comparable to a Second Grade Medicinal Pill. " Jiang Haojing did not hide anything, and told him some of the secrets of alchemy. He let Xu Feng slowly accept it.
"Open up the Dantian and retain the medicinal strength..." Xu Feng frowned and thought hard about the connection between these two questions.
"Master, I understand!" A light flashed in Xu Feng's mind and he thought of a possibility. He immediately said, "Opening the Dantian is the foundation. When the Yuan energy is strong, you can control the Yuan energy in one hand to concoct pills and control the Yuan energy in the other, forcefully keeping the Medicine Pill's medicinal strength inside the Medicine Pill. Cooperate from the inside and from the outside to achieve the goal. As long as one is far enough from the goal, one can refine the Third Grade Medicine Pill. It's just a matter of time! "
"That's right..." Jiang Haojing nodded his head in satisfaction. He knew that Xu Feng was a genius in alchemy and martial arts. However, with just a little bit of guidance, Xu Feng understood the key point. He was indeed talented and intelligent. "What I want you to do now is to increase the medicinal strength of the Second Grade Medicinal Pill. When you break through to the Celestial Essence Stage, the Third Grade Pill Alchemist will naturally come naturally. "
?
Half a month had passed in the blink of an eye. Xu Feng stayed in Jiang Haojing's residence just like that. Every morning, he would practice martial arts, and in the afternoon, he would listen to Jiang Haojing teach him alchemy. He was tired and full of energy every day. At night, he would soak his body in medicinal wine and strengthen his bones. He recovered the stamina he had used up for a day, and on the second day... His body would return to normal and he would not feel tired at all.
"It's time to try to open up my Dantian." This morning, Xu Feng made up his mind in the courtyard. After hearing Jiang Haojing's words that day, he was shocked. It was unrealistic to think that he could break through to the Celestial Essence Stage in a short period of time. The only way was to start with the Pill Alchemist.
He sat down with his legs crossed, gathering his Yuan energy and breathing in the natural Yuan energy. His mind and mind were ethereal, and he entered a wonderful realm. The origin energy of heaven and earth transformed into essence energy, and it endlessly poured into his body. Very quickly, the Yuan Power in his body was already saturated.
However, Xu Feng did not stop. He slowly inhaled the Yuan energy. Every time he inhaled a little more, his Dantian would increase and crack even more. The feeling of pain spread from his Dantian to his entire body.
"Ah..."
Xu Feng spat out a mouthful of black blood. The intense pain forced him to stop. If this continued, he was afraid that his body would explode and die.
"It really isn't that simple to reach the Third Grade Pill Alchemist in the Martial Essence Stage!" Xu Feng had suffered a backlash the first time he opened his Dantian. He didn't dare to continue recklessly, and thought to himself. How could he open his dantian?
He could absorb Yuan Power and continuously attack the meridians in his chest. However, the energy required to open up the meridians was too great. If he forcefully opened up the meridians, he would also be injured, so this method was not feasible.
After carefully considering all the martial arts in his heart, Xu Feng suddenly discovered the Gray Essence Strength in his body!
"That's right! Why didn't I think of that! Using it to open up the dantian, I'm sure it will succeed! " The more Xu Feng thought about it, the more excited he became. He took out a Medicine Pill and swallowed it without even looking, quickly recovering the essence energy he had expended.
Once again sitting down cross-legged, Xu Feng already had a precise idea. He separated the gray Yuan energy in a separate space and gradually merged it into his Yuan energy. When the Gray Essence Strength collided with the origin energy in his body, the Gray Essence Strength was like a bottomless pit. As it devoured Xu Feng's Yuan energy, in the blink of an eye, more than half of the Yuan energy in his body had been consumed.
However, upon closer inspection, the Gray Essence Strength no longer had the deathly aura from before. After absorbing the Yuan energy, its surroundings began to emit a faint and smooth light, as if it had become solid.
"It's done!" Xu Feng was overjoyed. He knew that the first step had succeeded. Next, it would be up to the Gray Essence Strength to open up its Dantian.
