Chapter 183 Three Years Later
Qin Feng now understands the situation of Feilingmen.
He used the sect's help to improve his alchemy skills, and he will definitely give back to the sect in the future.
After completing his studies, he would have to refine a batch of medicine for the sect for free every year. Of course, the medicinal materials would be provided by the sect.
Other than that, there are no other strict requirements.
That's it?
It was really too easy for Qin Feng.
When he first started working, weren't the terms and conditions much more cruel than this?
Compared with the "blessing" of 996, this treaty is simply like a real son!
Moreover, his identity is quite special. If ordinary disciples want to learn this, they have to test their talent, and there are also quotas for consumables.
In addition, there are other miscellaneous restrictions.
Because of Qin Feng's status as an elder, he is naturally not subject to these restrictions. As long as he doesn't go too far, no one will bother him.
By the way, after I have learned something.
In addition to handing in a bottle of elixir every year, you can also continue to use the sect's herbs to make elixirs.
The prerequisite is to hand over half of the finished pills to the sect, and you can only keep half.
And this is still using the sect's materials. If not, the sect will not charge a penny, and you can also use the alchemy furnace, earth fire and other things for free.
Regarding this kind of conscientious treaty, what else can Qin Feng say? He can only say that Feilingmen is really genuine!
Just like that, after Qin Feng sent Che Wuping away, he went straight to the alchemy room.
On the way, he glanced at his dashboard.
Name: Qin Feng
Talent: God rewards hard work
Strength: First level golden elixir (early stage of elixir formation)
Skill: Nine-turn Golden Elixir Method [Minor Success] (Proficiency: 2/30)
Freedom Visualization Method [Perfection]
Primary Talisman Making [Minor Achievement] (Proficiency: 12/30)
Changchun Gong [perfected], Liehuo Jue [perfected], Ningyuan Gong [perfected], Feiling Gong [perfected].
During these three months, Qin Feng practiced nearly a hundred basic skills, all of which were Qi Refining Stage skills, and he practiced them all to perfection.
This increased Qin Feng's magic power by about half, and most importantly, it gave him a comprehensive understanding of the immortal cultivation techniques.
These Qi Refining Stage exercises are basically about drawing spiritual energy into the body, slowly changing oneself, and preparing for foundation building.
From this, Qin Feng comprehended some small details, and used this to make slight improvements to his own Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir Method, which increased his cultivation speed by three points.
Although it is very small, this is a Qi Refining Stage technique!
If a Jindan cultivator could refer to the Qigong method to improve his own skills, he would be ecstatic if he could improve even 3%, let alone 3%.
After all, they have reached the Jindan stage, and the time for cultivators to practice is basically calculated in years.
This improvement, combined with the accumulation of time and the addition of various training conditions, will be a significant bonus.
Without going into too much detail, it would take an ordinary cultivator in the early Jindan stage about 120 years to cultivate to the middle Jindan stage, unless there is any adventure and his talent is average.
Of course, the talent mentioned here generally refers to the average talent among Jindan cultivators, such as those with three spiritual roots who can barely form a Jindan.
In one hundred and twenty years, a three-point improvement, including factors such as spiritual veins, spiritual stones, and environment, can save at least five years!
The Qi Refining Stage's exercises can provide such enlightenment, what about the Foundation Building Stage?
By then, it will probably bring about an improvement of 20% to 30%, which will save decades of time, right?
In addition to the martial arts, Qin Feng has also gained some knowledge of talismans.
In the world of "A Mortal's Journey to Immortality", whether it is an alchemist, a talisman maker, or a formation master, there is actually no strict level division. The only difference is strength and experience.
However, Qin Feng himself made a detailed division of it, and improved slowly step by step.
And after being refined, the speed of improving proficiency will be much faster.
For example, Qin Feng defines this primary talisman making as including all talismans in the Qi Refining Stage and the Foundation Building Stage.
The intermediate talismans above that are all the talismans for the Jindan stage and the Yuanying stage.
As for the advanced talisman making, it is the talisman of the Spirit Transformation Stage!
Although Qin Feng did not learn other things such as alchemy, formations, and weapon refining, they were also divided in this way.
Now that he has achieved some success in making talismans at the primary level, he has already understood the talismans used in the Qi Refining Stage, and also knows a thing or two about the talismans used in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Although it took three months, Qin Feng spent most of his time in practice, and the actual time spent on talisman making was only about half an hour every day.
After finishing reading all the books in the Sutra Library, Qin Feng will probably spend time on refining pills and making talismans.
As for formations and refining, the former is more difficult, and Feilingmen does not have any useful knowledge to learn.
As for the latter, Qin Feng currently has no demand for it.
He has his own magic weapon, the Ink Shadow Sword, and some other magical tools.
Besides, he doesn’t want to fight with anyone now!
Therefore, he currently has no intention of learning these two secondary professions.
Feilingmen, alchemy room.
An elder who had established his foundation saw Qin Feng and immediately took him on a tour excitedly.
After taking a look at the warehouse, Qin Feng only took some ordinary herbs under the worried gaze of the elder.
For example, the spiritual grass and spirit gathering flower are decades old and not very valuable.
"Uncle Seventh Master wants to refine the Qi Gathering Pill?" the elder was stunned.
Before this, he knew that Qin Feng was coming to the alchemy room.
But he didn't know how good Qin Feng's alchemy skills were. He probably had a certain foundation, but needed a lot of practice to learn.
So he was very worried just now, worried that Qin Feng would waste herbs or something.
But he never expected that Qin Feng just wanted to refine the Qi Gathering Pill.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Qin Feng stopped and asked after taking about ten pieces of materials.
"No problem."
The elder smiled and led Qin Feng into an alchemy room.
The Qi Gathering Pill is just a pill for the Qi Refining stage, which can speed up the cultivation speed of Qi Refining practitioners.
The value of materials in one furnace will not exceed ten spirit stones, but if they are refined into pills, the quantity will be enough to fill three small bottles, and one bottle can be sold for ten spirit stones.
Qin Feng used this to practice, which can only be said to be very cost-effective.
"Uncle Master, if you need anything, just call me."
After saying this, the elder left.
In the alchemy room, Qin Feng did not delay and started refining the elixir directly.
Qin Feng looked at the alchemy methods in the mortal world, and found that they were actually not much different from the ones he used in the Douluo world before.
After all, everything in the world, many things are connected.
Alchemy is nothing more than refining herbs, then fusing their medicinal properties through flames to eventually make a pill.
If you can do this, you can actually become a qualified alchemist.
From now on, various optimizations and improvements will be made on this basis.
It feels like playing a game and going through the beginner tutorial.
With previous experience, Qin Feng lit up the earth fire and quickly began to smelt the herbs.
After condensing the golden elixir, Qin Feng actually also had elixir fire.
But the power of that flame is too great. It is good for refining equipment, but it is not impossible to refine pills. It is just a little lacking in meaning and unnecessary. [Primary Alchemy Proficiency +1]
[Primary Alchemy Proficiency +1]
[Primary Alchemy Proficiency +1]
Half an hour later, a furnace of pills was successfully produced.
It was a normal level, and the number of pills produced was also normal, just enough to fill three small bottles.
You know, this was Qin Feng's first time using spiritual power to refine pills, and there was a small flaw when he was refining the herbs.
But he quickly regained control and finally succeeded in making the elixir.
The reason for this is that previous experience is very important, and secondly, his strength in the Jindan stage allows him to have a high tolerance rate for errors when refining.
The combination of these two here allowed him to succeed right away the first time.
By the evening, Qin Feng had finished refining all ten materials in his hands.
[Primary Alchemy Proficiency +1]
[Primary Alchemy Proficiency +1]
His proficiency increased rapidly and reached the minor success level directly.
This was because of his previous experience in alchemy, and his progress was much faster than learning to make talismans.
All of a sudden, many pill recipes and refining methods appeared in his mind, and Qin Feng seemed to have been immersed in alchemy for several years.
Among these pills, some of the recipes are available in Feiling Sect, but some are not.
There are nearly a hundred species scattered here and there, and the types are also varied.
There are well-known ones such as Huanglong Pill, Jinsui Pill, and Foundation Building Pill, as well as inferior pills such as aphrodisiac and poison.
In general, 90% are elixirs for the Qi Refining Stage, and the remaining 10% are relatively basic elixirs for the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Fortunately, we have the Foundation Building Pill, which is a good thing.
There are several kinds of pill recipes, and the auxiliary medicines are almost the same, only the main medicines are different.
And in the Chaos Star Sea, the most suitable main medicine is naturally the demon pill.
As long as three inner core pills of level five monsters are used as the main medicine, and thirty kinds of auxiliary medicines are used, the foundation-building pill can be refined.
The inner elixir of a level five demon beast is worth thousands of spirit stones, and the value of thirty kinds of auxiliary medicines is also not low. The cost of this dose of materials is estimated to be more than four thousand spirit stones.
Of course, this dose of materials can be used to refine more than just one foundation-building pill.
Normally, it can be divided into ten portions and refined ten times.
If you are confident enough and have a high level of alchemy skills, you can refine all the materials at once.
The number of pills produced will be determined by the amount of materials.
Even if you use unique alchemy techniques, the number of successful pills will be further increased.
Generally speaking, the cost of a pill is about four to five hundred spirit stones, and the selling price of the Foundation Establishment Pill starts at two thousand spirit stones.
The most important thing is that this thing is very popular and there is no worry about selling it.
In other words, the main medicine of the Chaos Star Sea is not very difficult to obtain. You just need to kill the fifth-level monster.
If it were taken to Tiannan, one foundation-building pill could probably be sold for more than three thousand spirit stones.
In the blink of an eye, three years have passed.
In the end, he did not go to fulfill Che Wuping's previous commission.
Although it is simple, the rewards are also generous, and it won’t take long to get out.
But at that time, Qin Feng had just joined Feiling Sect not long ago, and he didn't know much about it. If he went out directly, leaving the other party alone in the sect, he would be a little worried.
So during these three years, he has been staying in Feilingmen and witnessed one thing.
That is Qin Feng’s terrifying talent in alchemy!
Che Wuping was sure that Qin Feng must have had some experience with alchemy before, otherwise he would not have made such rapid progress.
In just three years, Qin Feng was able to refine elixirs for the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Especially the powerful True Essence Pills that are available to cultivators in the late stage of foundation building. The profit of one bottle of this thing is more than two thousand spirit stones, which is a huge profit!
Although Qin Feng’s current pill success rate is not very ideal, he alone can still bring more than 5,000 spirit stones of income to the sect every year!
Fortunately, he did not bring Qin Feng to accept the commission that year.
This kind of precious elder must be well taken care of in the sect. If he gets injured outside, Che Wuping will regret it for the rest of his life!
Now, after three years of understanding.
Che Wuping was still relatively reassured about Qin Feng, and a few days ago, the man from Tiemu Island came to see him again.
It is said that when they ambushed and killed the sixth-level monster, they found an ancient badge in its stomach, which recorded the location of the cave of an ancient monk.
And in that treasure hiding place, there was a large formation blocking it, and there were many talismans pasted on it.
Che Wuping's talisman skills were decent, so Tiemulin invited him to crack it this time.
The reward is also very simple, that is, after entering the ancient monk’s cave, he can choose one thing.
That was the cave residence of an ancient cultivator. If he could get an ancient treasure or something, his strength would increase immediately.
So he agreed to it directly.
Three days later.
Che Wuping, who was well prepared, found Qin Feng and said that he would need to go out for a while, which would take anywhere from half a year to a year, so he would need him to look after the sect.
Naturally, he would not tell Qin Feng about the cave.
Qin Feng was a little depressed about this, but he didn't say much.
After these three years, Qin Feng's time at Feilingmen has come to an end.
He had finished studying all the books in the Sutra Library, and had reached the intermediate level in talismans and alchemy, which meant he was able to refine elixirs for the Jindan stage.
Of course, he did not show all of his abilities, but instead hid them.
Even so, his current talent is so terrifying that Che Wuping is shocked.
After all, Feiling Sect is a small sect, and the herbs in the sect may be able to support him in refining elixirs for the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stages.
But there are simply not enough medicinal materials here to make the pills for the Jindan stage, and we can’t get them together no matter what!
Continuing to refine those low-level pills can indeed improve Qin Feng's proficiency, but the efficiency is too low.
It may take you three months to improve your proficiency a little bit, but refining a pill for the Jindan stage may only take three days!
Precisely because the gap is so huge, Qin Feng already wants to leave.
But now, Che Wuping has to go out for something, and it would be a bit inappropriate for him to leave at this time.
So Qin Feng thought, let's talk about it after Che Wuping comes back.
During this period of time, he sorted out his experience in refining pills and handed it over to Che Yan.
The value of these experiences is still very high. If they are put up for auction, they can probably be sold for tens of thousands of spirit stones.
He handed it over to Feiling Sect as a way of repaying the favor.
In fact, there is another very important reason why Qin Feng wants to leave, that is, he knows the current time point through inquiries over the past few years.
There are less than forty years left until the opening of Xutian Palace.
If he remembered correctly, Han Li should be in Tianxing City at this moment!
