[Chapter eight hundred and forty fourth Dingyang Gate]
In terms of real strength, Dingyangmen is only comparable to the Heaven-Splitting Sword Sect, but in terms of influence in the Southern Region, Dingyangmen far exceeds that of the Heaven-Splitting Sword Sect.
Because what Dingyangmen is best at is not fighting, but alchemy.
Medicine pills are always the scarcest resource, but it is not easy to train a qualified alchemist.
There is a saying in the southern region, the sword comes out of the sky, and the pill comes to Dingyang.
Fifty years ago, there was a sect stronger than the Heaven Splitting Sword Sect who wanted to attack Dingyang Sect. As a result, Dingyang Sect sent out Danyang posts, and all the big and small sects who received Danyang posts responded as promised. Come on, in the end, under the siege of hundreds of sects, the sect that had the idea of Dingyang Sect was wiped out to the point where no scum was left.
On this day, the sun rises.
The entire Dingyang Gate is enveloped in a soft glow.
At this moment, a handsome young man came to the front of the mountain gate of Dingyangmen with a group of people wearing bronze masks.
Compared with other major sects, in front of the mountain gate of Dingyangmen, only two disciples of the fifth and sixth levels of Qi refining were sent to guard it symbolically.
“Are you here to ask for Dan?”
Although they couldn’t see through the cultivation base of Song Yan and others, the attitude of the two guarding mountain gate disciples was very arrogant, and they only glanced lazily at them from the corner of their eyes.
“No, I’m here to teach the art of alchemy.”
Song Yan smiled.
Hearing this, the two disciples were stunned for a moment, then laughed disdainfully, and looked at Song Yan playfully: “Boy, do you know what this place is?”
“Isn’t it Dingyangmen?” Song Yan asked rhetorically.
“Now that you know that this is Dingyangmen, how dare you say such presumptuous words!” The expressions of the two disciples turned cold.
“Isn’t it presumptuous? I don’t think so.” Song Yan touched his nose: “Okay, let’s go and call your strongest alchemist. I want to compare with him to make medicinal pills!”
“Haha, the tone is really not small!” The two disciples of Dingyangmen were angry, and then a playful look flashed in one’s eyes, and said: “In this way, it is not impossible to see Elder Chen, but it has to pass our test. !”
“What test?” Song Yan asked.
Ran Qiwen said: “Let’s have a test first, if your alchemy can win me, I will report it for you!”
“How do you want to compare?” Song Yan looked at him and asked.
Ran Qiwen thought for a while: “You can choose one of us to compete!”
“No, the two of you go together, no matter who wins me, I will lose!” Song Yan said lightly.
“Okay, let’s compare second-grade Xuandan!” Ran Qiwen said, he only mastered refining second-grade Xuandan last month, but the success rate was less than one fifth, that is to say, refining five furnaces can only be successful A furnace.
“Yes.” Song Yan said in disapproval.
“Come with me.” Seeing Song Yan’s disapproving attitude, Ran Qiwen was a little angry, and decided in his heart that he must make that kid look good later.
Under the leadership of Ran Qiwen and the others, Song Yan and others came to an alchemy room.
This alchemy room is very spacious, and there are three bronze alchemy furnaces with a height of three and a half people.
“You can choose one of these three pill furnaces.” Ran Qiwen said.
“No, I don’t need this thing for alchemy!” Song Yan waved his hand.
“You don’t need a pill furnace, how can you make pills?” Ran Qiwen asked in confusion.
“That’s because you don’t have enough knowledge. Well, stop talking nonsense and tell the rules!” Song Yan was a little impatient.
Ran Qiwen sneered and nodded: “Well, the test time is three hours. After three hours, the quality and quantity of refining the second-grade Xuandan will determine the outcome.”
“It’s easy!”
With a wave of his hand, Song Yan took out a thousand copies of the elixir for refining the second-grade Xuandan from the storage ring.
Not to be outdone, Ran Qiwen and the two took out a thousand copies of the elixir for refining the second-grade Xuandan.
Seeing this, Song Yan couldn’t help but squinted his eyes slightly. This disciple of Dingyangmen is quite wealthy, and a disciple at the level of qi refining can actually come up with so many elixir.
In fact, Song Yan did not know that this Dingyang Sect was different from other sects. In Dingyang Sect, most of the disciples focused on alchemy, instead of focusing on martial arts cultivation, and the task of guarding the mountain gate was also rotated by the younger generation of disciples. come.
This Ran Qiwen’s cultivation base is not high, but among the younger generation, the number of people who can surpass him in alchemy will not exceed ten fingers.
Just as Ran Qiwen started igniting the elixir wood and preheating the elixir furnace, Song Yan suddenly grabbed a piece of elixir on the ground. The elixir was enveloped, and it all melted in the breath. Immediately, a puff of black smoke came out, and then, the remaining medicinal liquid quickly condensed and turned into a round two-grade Xuandan.
“This?”
Ran Qiwen and the two who inadvertently saw this scene suddenly became stunned. This kind of alchemy was unseen and unheard of, even if Elder Chen, the strongest alchemist in the Dingyang sect, wanted to refine medicine pills, he couldn’t leave the pill furnace.
“Senior Brother Ran, is he…?” Long Kui asked in horror.
Song Yan ignored the shocked faces of Ran Qiwen and Long Kui, and grabbed another elixir, which flashed brightly. After a few breaths, another elixir took shape.
Seeing Song Yan refining two second-grade Xuandan so easily, even the group of Martial Saints standing behind him were shocked, thinking to himself, how could there be such a miraculous alchemy in this world.
Song Yan refined a hundred second-grade Xuandan in one breath, and the time it took was only half an hour.
He looked at Ran Qiwen and Long Kui: “Is it still a comparison?”
“No… no comparison, we’ll report Elder Chen!”
Half an hour later, Song Yan saw an old man dressed in scruffy clothes with gray beard. The only thing that stood out about this old man was his bright eyes.
“Your Excellency is the alchemy master Xiao Ran said?”
Elder Chen looked at Song Yan with suspicion in his tone and eyes.
“If you compare it, you will know!”
“Okay, come with me!”
Under the leadership of Elder Chen, everyone came to a pill room, but this pill room was much more advanced than the previous one. First of all, the pill furnaces were made of special metals with many inscription patterns on them. Below is the ground fire entrance. Obviously, here, the ground fire is used for alchemy.
“If Your Excellency can refine the Xuanwu Pill, I will be humbled!” Elder Chen spoke again.
“What is Xuanwu Pill?” Song Yan asked with a frown.
Hearing this, Elder Chen couldn’t help but flash a trace of disappointment in his eyes. He took out a pill and handed it to Song Yan: “This is the pill of Xuanwu Pill, and I can also provide the medicinal materials!”
Song Yan simply glanced at the pill, and quickly understood what kind of pill it was.
“This Xuanwu Pill can prolong life, right?”
Elder Chen’s eyes suddenly lit up a bit: “You can infer the effectiveness of Xuanwu Pill just from the pill recipe. It seems that you have some real skills, so can you practice it?”
“It’s a piece of cake!” Song Yan waved his hand in disapproval.
“Okay, this is the elixir!”
When Elder Chen waved his hand, ten types of elixir that could be used to refine the Xuanwu Pill appeared on the ground.
At this moment, a majestic middle-aged man wearing a feather crown, green robe, and cloud boots came with two Martial Saints: “Elder Chen, I heard someone come to test alchemy with you! “
