Let you conquer the world of low-level martial arts, what the hell is Journey to the West?

Chapter 8: I swallowed a magic pill, my life is in my own hands
That’s why Zhang Tian smiled but said nothing.

Well known.

After all, the monkey did something extremely outrageous later. Facing the seven fairies who were as beautiful as angels, he cast a spell to freeze them.

If it were placed in some place where people could live a good life.

It is specified that one hundred and eight kinds of Eighteen Forbidden Things must be researched.

If it fell into the hands of Brother San.

That would be even worse!
But it happened to fall into the hands of the monkey, and then the monkey chose...

Eat peaches!

As for why seven gourd brothers jumped out of the stone later and knew all the magical powers that monkeys knew, it depends on how the unofficial history was compiled.

And the monkey at this time.

He laughed and bowed to his senior brother and Zhang Tian, ​​then somersaulted away happily.

You can practice Taoism in the mountains.

Seeking the secret of immortality.

And you can eat peaches in the mountains.

Rejoice! Rejoice!
After the monkey left, Zhang Tian followed this senior brother who was proficient in alchemy to practice the art of alchemy. The other party explained it very carefully, and it seemed quite simple, but over and over again, there were two words that could not be separated, that is...

Taoism!

I only heard the senior brother say, "Whether it is magical power, spells, or this art of refining medicine, it must be supported by Taoism to have divine power. If there is no Taoism, no matter how well you practice this skill, it will not be effective. Junior brother Zhang, you must remember that the art of refining medicine is a minor art, and you must not put the cart before the horse."

Zhang Tian nodded.

The art of alchemy is like a side job, some money-burning hobby, which are played by talented and wealthy people. For ordinary people, if they divide their attention between two things, let alone making money, it would be difficult for them to even survive.

He secretly thought.

If I could earn reincarnation points in the future and exchange them for Taoism, I would definitely add them to my talent for studying, improve my own character and understanding, so as to reach the standards for Bodhi Patriarch to accept me as a disciple.

Then he began to practice magical powers.

And this art of refining medicine.

Just make a transition in the early stages, there is no need to improve too much, just learn some techniques of refining low-level pills and sell them to those reincarnations.

So the next few days.

Zhang Tian temporarily stayed in the cave of this senior brother and learned the art of alchemy from him. Just as he said, his art of alchemy was not too complicated, he learned it from Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica.

It only took a few days.

Zhang Tian went from being a complete newbie to being able to get started independently.

[Ding! You have received help from a noble person, who taught you the art of alchemy, but this art is quite superficial and not a great art. You have amazing comprehension and have gained a lot. You have mastered the entry-level art of alchemy.

It takes 10 years of practice to upgrade to the primary alchemy skill. 】

Zhang Tian was secretly happy.

It turns out that more than just talents can be added.

Even the magical powers and spells practiced can be used.

He couldn't help but see his bright future, while his senior brother beside him had a complicated look in his eyes, with a hint of envy on his face, "I have practiced for more than thirty years, and received decades of teachings from the ancestors before I realized the art of refining medicine. I didn't expect that you, my junior brother, would learn it all in just a few days..."

"You are truly a man of divine wisdom!" "I want to warn you, Junior Brother. The method of refining medicine is easy to learn but difficult to master, and it consumes a lot of spiritual power. If you find that you are not interested, don't force yourself to do it, or you will miss out on your practice."

Zhang Tian nodded.

Show that you understand very well.

This thing is like learning math formulas. You remember it once you see it and understand it once it is explained. But when you get to the exam, the changes in medicinal materials are like the changes in various subjects. Once they change their appearance, you will be confused and have no idea how to match them.

You can also memorize it by rote.

Learning the combinations of medicinal ingredients for a few fixed pills, only knowing the results but not the reasons behind them, even if you practice for a hundred years, you will be nothing more than a machine for refining medicine, which will be of no use to your own practice.

After all, you have been practicing for a hundred years, and your cultivation cannot stop improving. If you continue to refine those low-level pills, they will probably be of no use to you.

Seeing Zhang Tian like this, the senior brother couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. He finally understood the strange look that Bodhi Patriarch usually gave them and monkeys. They were highly comprehensible, obedient, and would understand anything they were told. They would understand things at once and believe whatever they were told.

The other brothers would just suddenly realize what is going on and then... bark wildly!
Contented.

The senior brother slapped his head and stretched out his hand to the side, and one of the many gourds hanging on the wall flew straight over.

The gourd fell into his hands.

A sapphire blue pill emitting light flew out from the gourd. Just by looking at it, it had a crystal clear luster and a fragrant smell.

Although Zhang Tian had never seen it before, he said to himself, what a great pill!
I saw a little pride on my senior brother's face. "This happened a few years ago when I was coming down the mountain to my hometown. When I passed by a village, I found a river monster causing trouble there. It had practiced Taoism for a thousand years but only had a hundred years of cultivation. It was pretending to be a river god. I killed it easily, took the inner elixir of the river monster, pulled out its tendons and bones, and refined these pills."

"For cultivators, it has the wonderful effect of strengthening muscles and bones. It is especially wonderful for you, Junior Brother Zhang. After all, you have just embarked on the path of cultivation and are still just a mortal body."

A thousand-year-old demon.

Impersonating a river god.

He was unexpectedly killed by the senior brother who was refining medicine in front of him!
Zhang Tian was quite shocked, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that being able to stay in Fangcun Mountain, get the recognition of Patriarch Bodhi, and then preach once a month and be guided by such a great man, even if it was a pig, it would probably have achieved extraordinary cultivation.

I only heard the senior brother sigh, "If my alchemy skills can be improved a little more, maybe this elixir can be called the golden elixir."

"I heard."

"There are powerful people in the Heavenly Palace. They can easily refine the third and sixth golden elixirs, and even the ninth golden elixir."

The elder brother's face was filled with envy, "If cultivators like me could obtain a Nine Revolutions Golden Pill, what a great blessing that would be!"

Not only his senior brother had envy in his eyes, but Zhang Tian did the same. He remembered that Zhu Bajie in Journey to the West obtained a legendary Nine-Revolution Pill and thus possessed extraordinary cultivation.

I was given the Nine-turn Great Rejuvenation Pill.
The work never stops day and night.

Because I have become a Daluo Immortal,
Raise a guest who can live forever for me.

He was given the title of Marshal Tianpeng.
The emperor bestowed a nail-shaped mace as an imperial seal.

It's really...

Once I swallow the elixir, my life will be in my own hands!

After taking the elixir from his senior brother's gourd, Zhang Tian thanked him repeatedly and said goodbye. He returned to his residence and swallowed one of the azure pills into his stomach.

The elixir turned into flowing water.

It merged into the torso in an instant.

The whole person just felt light-headed, his five senses became intelligent, the world became clear, it was as if there was a tiger hidden in his chest, with a brilliant light in his eyes, and he had the power to split mountains and crush rocks!

"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!!"
