Chapter 497: Three Main Materials for the Infant-Forming Elixir: Spirit Iris, Purple Monkey Flower, Five-Element Lotus Platform

~15 min read 2,896 words

Just as Linghu Jie said, Luo Chen's arrival would inevitably attract visits from many Jin Dan cultivators stationed here.

Nothing else!

The name of an alchemy master naturally has appeal.

However, the first one to visit was not a Jin Dan cultivator, but a mother and son in the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Uncle Luo!" Qin Yuanjiang called respectfully.

After not seeing each other for many years, the once green and hairy young man was already in the appearance of a middle-aged man, experienced in wind and frost, steady and capable.

Between his brows and words, there was joy in seeing his elder.

Luo Chen nodded to him with a smile, and then looked at the woman who still had charm.

"Sister-in-law, haven't seen you for many years, has life been peaceful?"

Because of this "Sister-in-law," Murong Qinglian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She was hesitating how to address Luo Chen.

If she used an honorific, wouldn't her and her son's seniority be lowered to the same level.

Luo Chen spoke first, which solved her embarrassment.

With a slight smile, Murong Qinglian nodded: "Life has been smooth before, especially since Yuanjiang has settled down, I can be considered to have removed a worry."

Luo Chen looked at Qin Yuanjiang in surprise.

"Have you already formed a Dao companion?"

Qin Yuanjiang laughed heartily: "Yes, the woman is Ruan Huan'er, the daughter of Sect Master Master. I originally wanted to bring her over today to see you, Uncle Luo, but she is busy outside, so there is no way to come together."

Hearing this answer, Luo Chen couldn't help but show a gratified smile.

Didn't expect Qin Yuanjiang to be quite powerful, not only worshiping the Luoyun Sect Sect Master as his master, but also chasing the other party's daughter to hand.

In this way, Qin Yuanjiang's future can be called promising!

It's just this cultivation...

Luo Chen frowned, "Your mother is already at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment, why are you still at the fifth level?"

In this troubled time, the cultivation of the fifth level of Foundation Establishment is really not presentable.

If you really encounter a powerful demonic beast, self-protection is a difficult thing.

Murong Qinglian shook her head and defended him: "This matter cannot blame Yuanjiang, he usually has to deal with many trivial matters, and now the opening war has started, there is even less space for quiet cultivation. Unlike me, I have turned a deaf ear to things outside the window all these years, focused on pure cultivation, and have that large quantity of top-grade Jade Dew Elixirs provided by you, so naturally my realm has soared!"

Qin Yuanjiang laughed awkwardly on the side and didn't make a sound.

After hearing this explanation, Luo Chen understood instantly.

Worshiping the Sect Master as a master naturally involves many miscellaneous affairs, which will indeed drag down the cultivation speed.

Murong Qinglian's rapid cultivation progress was indeed unexpected.

You must know that in the Luo Tian Sect, there are not many great cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage.

Strictly speaking, there are actually only two people.

One is Xu Huanzhen, who was supplied with top-grade Rising Dragon Elixirs, and after a hundred years of accumulation, he slowly ground from the peak of the sixth level of Foundation Establishment to the eighth level.

The other is Sima Huiniang!

With a second-tier top-grade cave, plus the full resource supply of the Luo Tian Sect, and even more top-grade Jade Dew Elixirs stably provided by Luo Chen, plus the occasional top-grade Jade Dew Elixirs refined.

Under such resource supply, she barely advanced to the eighth level of Foundation Establishment.

Even so, it was only after her apprentice Yao Mingyue succeeded in Foundation Establishment and shared many miscellaneous affairs for her that she had time to cultivate up.

From this, it can be seen that too many miscellaneous affairs, although they can collect wealth, will indeed affect the cultivation speed.

After chatting about family affairs, the mother and son prepared to say goodbye.

Before leaving, Murong Qinglian told Luo Chen the main purpose of this visit.

"The Luoyun Sect is holding an opening war, and everyone is involved, and I am no exception."

"In the past few years, I have been helping under the sect's chief alchemist, Fairy Mu Yunyan."

"She knows you are here and has the heart to visit you, Luo Chen, what do you think?"

Mu Yunyan?

Luo Chen chewed on this name and nodded slightly.

This woman has a great reputation, and he has heard of it for a long time.

Bringing art to worship a teacher, worshiping Han Zhan, who was still in the Jin Dan realm back then, as a teacher, she is also the only disciple Han Zhan True Person has accepted for so many years.

Under the full support of the Luoyun Sect, her alchemy skills advanced by leaps and bounds, faintly having the level of a master.

In terms of alchemy attainments, it is not inferior to the three elders of the Tai Dan Academy of the Green Elixir Valley.

It is precisely because of this woman that the Luoyun Sect's elixir resources can barely be self-sufficient and not be clamped by the Medicine King Sect or even the Green Elixir Valley.

It can be said that the Luoyun Sect can have the current prosperous scene, Mu Yunyan's own strength accounts for one-tenth of the credit!

Communicating with such an existence, Luo Chen naturally yearns for it.

"Since so, then I will trouble Sister-in-law to pass the word. I will naturally sweep the bed and wait, welcoming Fairy Mu to come and talk!"

Murong Qinglian smiled slightly and took Qin Yuanjiang away from Luo Chen's cave.

One day after they left.

A distinguished guest arrived.

Luo Chen went out to greet her personally.

Seeing Mu Yunyan for the first time, her appearance was ordinary, only the two words "clear and beautiful."

But in the other party's conversation, the understanding of alchemy revealed can be described as exquisite.

Especially on the basic alchemy techniques that Luo Chen is best at, she is like a family treasure.

"Luoyun Smoke-Generating Method is my self-created water-method alchemy technique. But I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Luo to master it so exquisitely, almost not inferior to me, the founder."

The communication between the two did not stop at the verbal level.

An alchemy furnace, under the roasting of fierce fire, emitted a faint elixir fragrance.

Seeing the alchemy skills revealed by Luo Chen during the alchemy process, Mu Yunyan opened her mouth to praise in surprise.

Luo Chen was also surprised, he didn't expect the Luoyun Smoke-Generating Method to be created by this woman.

This is a third-tier water-method alchemy technique, enough to be used for the vast majority of water-method alchemy.

Over the years, Luo Chen has accumulated deeply, although he also has self-created alchemy techniques, they are only limited to the first and second tiers.

Calling them alchemy techniques, if you count them seriously, they can be seen as small tricks, or secret techniques and tricks.

He sighed: "Calculating this way, Fairy Mu is still my teacher."

The woman smiled slightly, "Fellow Daoist is over-praising."

Luo Chen shook his head and didn't say much.

What the other party doesn't know is how much effect this water-method alchemy technique has had on his cultivation path.

Without this method, he would not be able to refine the "Emperor Flowing Pulp" needed for Foundation Establishment.

Not only could he not establish a foundation, but even Murong Qinglian, Gu Caiyi, and the several other cultivators in the Luo Tian Sect who relied on the Emperor Flowing Pulp to establish a foundation would not be able to continue their Dao path.

"Speaking of which, Fellow Daoist participated in the great event of refining the Infant-Forming Elixir in the Green Elixir Valley back then, I wonder if you can chat with me about the details of that year?"

Mu Yunyan stared at Luo Chen with a pair of wonderful eyes, revealing a thirst for knowledge.

Luo Chen's mind stirred, it's this again!

Meng Changshou of the Medicine King Sect is like this, and Mu Yunyan is also like this.

These outstanding third-tier alchemists are all very curious about the refining of the fourth-tier Infant-Forming Elixir!

But it's also normal.

If Luo Chen hadn't participated in that alchemy, after hearing about it, if he had the opportunity to meet the person involved, he would probably also ask for advice humbly.

Seeing Luo Chen pondering, Mu Yunyan sighed and said: "Speaking of which, back then Qing Danzi also had the intention to invite me to help, but unfortunately, because of the sect's interests, I finally couldn't make it."

Luo Chen was surprised!

Is there such an inside story?

Thinking carefully, it seems to be a matter of course.

Before he promoted to the Jin Dan stage, Mu Yunyan, whose alchemy skills were not inferior to the three elders of the Tai Dan Academy, was actually the most suitable candidate for the sixth person.

I guess the Green Elixir Valley didn't want to be too deeply involved with the Luoyun Sect, so they retreated and chose Luo Chen!

He smiled: "That is indeed a pity. If it were Fairy Mu, maybe it would have succeeded back then."

"Fellow Daoist is over-praising." Mu Yunyan smiled slightly, "According to my observation, even if your alchemy skills are not as powerful as mine, among third-tier alchemists, you are considered excellent. Moreover, the refining of the Infant-Forming Elixir depends more on the leader, whether it is you or me, we are just assistants, irrelevant to the overall situation."

Luo Chen nodded, also approving of these words.

Since the topic has been opened, there is no need for scruples.

Luo Chen simply stated the details of the alchemy that day one by one.

He didn't avoid suspicion, the Green Elixir Valley didn't seal its mouth on this matter, and there were outsiders from the two major sects, Heavenly Sail City and Joyful Union Sect, watching that day.

Concealment cannot be concealed.

However, because Luo Chen was the person involved, he felt more deeply, and the details he said were more detailed and reliable.

From the Green Elixir Array, to the selection of alchemists, to the processing of auxiliary materials...

Bit by bit, it was narrated from Luo Chen's mouth.

In this process, Mu Yunyan listened very carefully, and Luo Chen himself stopped from time to time to ask if the other party had a better solution.

In fact, Luo Chen also hid a selfish heart!

He hoped that through the bystander perspective of people like Meng Changshou and Mu Yunyan, he could constantly review that array alchemy back then.

If a better solution is obtained, then in the future, when he is in the late Jin Dan stage, after getting the specific Infant-Forming Elixir recipe from the Green Elixir Valley, he will inevitably collect medicinal materials and refine the Infant-Forming Elixir himself!

"Millennium ginseng, but used the processing method of five hundred years? Strange... how could Qing Danzi make such an obvious mistake."

"No!"

"This is to preserve the medicinal properties, waiting for the final fusion to erupt."

"Wait, why was the Dream Fruit processed to a deep purple degree? Reasonably speaking, after this fruit fuses with two other auxiliary materials, it should be light purple. What is the mystery in this?"

"That's it, that's it!"

"Dream Fruit plus Luo Sheng Pill, it should be light purple. But in this way, the medicinal power is neutralized. Taking all of it, supplemented by another medicinal material, stimulating the medicinal power to the extreme, instead, it will be easier to fit other medicinal liquids."

"Is the main alchemy technique Burning Crane Hand?"

"This choice is clever, because this Infant-Forming Elixir is biased towards fire. It is precisely because of this that Qing Danzi gathered five of you alchemists with source true fire."

Sentences that were either doubtful, or understood, or self-questioning and self-answering, were spat out from the woman's mouth.

Luo Chen initially felt that the other party's alchemy skills were really too high, and those finishing touches directly solved the doubts in his heart over the years.

Even, he felt that Mu Yunyan's alchemy skills were more powerful than the famous Meng Changshou of the Medicine King Sect!

But gradually, Luo Chen noticed something wrong.

Perhaps, it's not that Mu Yunyan is more skilled?

But that she is extremely familiar with the recipe ratio of the Infant-Forming Elixir?

Only then could she point out the advantages and disadvantages with purpose.

After Luo Chen noticed this, the details he said were increasingly guided to places he didn't understand.

Under his secret guidance, Mu Yunyan also gave answers one by one.

"There is no problem with the processing of Spirit Iris, it should be broken tail and then into the medicine."

"Purple Monkey Flower, no, I think another alchemy technique should be used."

Luo Chen's heart shook, it turned out that one of the two fourth-tier main materials he didn't know back then, the one shaped like a monkey brain, was called Purple Monkey Flower!

He pursed his lips and asked tentatively: "Why did Qing Danzi use that lotus platform to wrap the medicinal liquid at the critical moment of final medicinal power fusion?"

Mu Yunyan said as a matter of course: "Cultivators forming an infant walk the path of three flowers gathering at the top and five qi facing the origin. When the work is done, the earth gushes golden lotus, and the sky flowers fall. This five-element lotus takes the lotus platform and not the lotus seeds, naturally following the principle of earth gushing golden lotus, to entrust the principle of the Great Dao. The principle of elixir and the principle of cultivation are often common in many cases. Fellow Daoist Luo, you wouldn't know..."

Speaking of this, she stopped suddenly and looked at Luo Chen with a smile that was not a smile.

"So it is the Five-Element Lotus Platform!"

Luo Chen secretly said in his heart, and wrote down the name of this fourth-tier main material.

In this way, he already knew all the materials for refining the Infant-Forming Elixir.

If he encounters them in the future, he can collect them in advance!

Afterwards, he bowed sincerely to Mu Yunyan.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for your guidance!"

The woman raised the corners of her mouth, already reacting to Luo Chen's previous actions.

However, she didn't get angry.

Even, she gave a hint.

"The older the age of the Five-Element Lotus Platform, the better, at least five hundred years. According to what you said, Qing Danzi's alchemy skills are indeed above ours, but the quality of the Five-Element Lotus Platform he collected was poor, at most only five or six hundred years, no wonder he failed more than ten times."

Luo Chen kept these words firmly in his heart.

One day, he will inevitably follow Qing Danzi's example and reach this step.

Mu Yunyan's guidance to him can be considered a great favor.

"Alright, let's stop the discussion here today, I have to go back and digest these things well."

Mu Yunyan proposed to say goodbye.

Luo Chen naturally didn't keep her, he also needed to digest the many knowledge points the other party just put forward.

When he personally sent the woman outside the door, Luo Chen said casually:

"I am a newcomer here, and I don't know many people. I plan to hold a private gathering in two days, I wonder if you have time then?"

Mu Yunyan nodded, "If there is no sudden situation, I will definitely come!"

After speaking, the woman summoned a white cloud and drifted away.

Watching her back, Luo Chen breathed a long sigh of relief.

He confirmed one thing!

The Infant-Forming Elixir recipe from the Green Elixir Valley, the Luoyun Sect must have one!

Even, maybe the one from the Green Elixir Valley was sent by the Luoyun Sect.

However.

"This kind of recipe that blindly pursues the age and quality of medicinal materials and has a single medicinal property is clearly not a modern product, I think it is an ancient recipe."

"I don't know where the Luoyun Sect got it?"

Luo Chen shook his head and returned to the cave.

At the same time, a sound transmission was sent out, and Ceng Yilong soon arrived at the cave.

Luo Chen planned to hold a small Jin Dan gathering in his own name.

First, it is to make connections and get to know most of the strong people on the front line.

Second, it is also to save the trouble of those people visiting one by one.

Things that can be solved in one gathering, why visit one by one?

Taking advantage of this small Jin Dan gathering, he will make his name known, and at the same time find new buyers for the Starry Elixirs.

By the way, see if he can collect some Fire Spirit Diamonds.

He is already at the second level of Jin Dan, and his life-bound magic treasure is still nowhere to be seen. To be honest, Luo Chen is also a bit anxious.

Luoyun Sect Sect Master's name changed from Peng Jing to Ruan Jing, forgot the name of his daughter written before, take the current one as the standard
