The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 466 Dan Cheng
Having refined elixirs in the Tushita Palace for so many years, Li Jingxiao was naturally very familiar with Laozi's alchemy room.

He even consulted Laozi on how to build an alchemy room and furnace.

Most importantly, how to refine the formation to protect the alchemy room.

Firstly, to avoid being spied on.

The Nine-Turn Golden Elixir has always been controlled by Laozi alone, not only because it is indeed difficult to learn and refine.

It is also related to Laozi's secrecy.

Otherwise, with so many powerful figures in Journey to the West, they wouldn't be constantly monitoring every step of the alchemy process.

Over time, you can always figure out a lot of insights.

Even if the counterfeit Golden Elixir is made, it might not be as good as the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir.

But if it has half the effect of the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir, or even just the Seven-Turn or Eight-Turn Golden Elixir which can extend one's lifespan by several thousand years, that would be quite remarkable.

Li Jingxiao believed that the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother must have thought about imitating the Golden Elixir countless times.

Secondly, if an accident occurs during alchemy and the furnace explodes, the power would be enormous.

After all, the fire used for alchemy is the Six Ding Divine Fire and the Five-Colored Flame.

A gentle fire and a strong fire can maintain a balance within the alchemy furnace.

But once it explodes, the combined power of the fire and water is far more than just 1+1=2.

Therefore, the alchemy room that Li Jingxiao built this time was made of simple materials.

However, the layout of the new alchemy room is exactly the same as that of the alchemy room in the Tushita Palace.

Even the formations were replicated exactly.

Then, the +9 upgraded Immortal-grade Eight Trigrams Furnace was placed there.

As soon as this precious furnace appeared, it was filled with colorful light and spiritual energy.

It's obvious at a glance that this alchemy furnace is extraordinary.

When the alchemy furnace was opened, a rich aura of immortal energy wafted out from it.

Just by smelling this aroma, one can tell that this alchemy furnace is extraordinary.

Not only Shiji, Fairy Caiyun, and Qiongxiao were all fascinated, but their eyes also lit up.

After the Lantern Festival, Nezha, who was still lingering here, was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

He secretly thought that his master's Taoist magic, supernatural powers, and martial arts were so formidable.

He was actually a master alchemist.

He instantly wanted to learn alchemy from Li Jingxiao, and also find an opportunity to ask for some elixirs to taste.

If Li Jingxiao knew that this kid wanted to eat the Golden Elixir like candy.

My first thought was of Sun Wukong, and my second thought was to slap this kid.

Unfortunately, in Li Jingxiao's mind, the two boys, Biyun and Yunxiao, were far inferior to Jinjiao and Yinjiao.

Otherwise, Li Jingxiao wouldn't have to personally handle tasks like lighting the fire, adding ingredients, and monitoring the temperature in the Bagua Furnace.

His gaze fell upon the three women, Nezha, Biyun, and Yunxia.

Li Jingxiao said with a smile, "Alright, everyone, get out. Don't disturb me while I'm refining pills."

Shiji, Caiyun, and Qiongxiao nodded instinctively, but Nezha's eyes darted around.

He just wanted to stay in the alchemy room and watch the excitement.

Of course, the kid wasn't stupid; he immediately knelt down on the ground with a thud.

He loudly begged Li Jingxiao to teach him alchemy, and also served as Li Jingxiao's assistant.

Li Jingxiao rolled his eyes at the boy.

Her acting is terrible; her little schemes are practically written all over her face.

Moreover, alchemy requires forty-nine days, and Li Jingxiao didn't believe that this kid could stay in the alchemy room for that long.

Of course, the main reason was that Li Jingxiao didn't intend to teach him alchemy.

He had no intention of passing on the method of refining the Golden Elixir to Nezha.

Li Jingxiao was not concerned about passing on other pills that could restore health and mana.

But certainly not now.

Otherwise, if one is too distracted, the speed of cultivating martial arts and the "Great Celestial Immortal Technique" will definitely be affected.

With a wave of his hand, Nezha was teleported from the alchemy room to the outside.

As he tried to enter again, a golden light flashed. Why did Li Jingxiao want to replicate Laozi's alchemy room exactly?

The purpose is that this alchemy room has its own array.

Without Li Jingxiao's permission, they had no choice but to forcibly break the formation.

Although the combat power in the Journey to the West world is lower than that in the Investiture of the Gods world.

But Laozi in the Journey to the West world is, after all, a person of the Daoist ancestor level.

How could a formation set up be anything ordinary?
Li Jingxiao guessed that even a Great Immortal wouldn't be able to break this formation.

Otherwise, it would be comparing Laozi's title as the Dao Ancestor in the Journey to the West world.

Seeing this, Shi Ji and the others obediently left the alchemy room.

Soon, two flashes of light appeared, and a wave of heat immediately emanated from the entire alchemy room.

Knowing that Li Jingxiao was indeed refining pills, they waited outside the pill refining room with a mixture of anticipation and curiosity.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Li Jingxiao originally thought it would take 49 days, or at the very least 45 days.

Unexpectedly, the efficiency of the +9 Immortal Artifact-level, Acquired Top-Grade Spiritual Treasure Eight Trigrams Furnace had increased so much.

He opened his mouth and inhaled both types of flames from the alchemy furnace into his stomach.

After a burp, both flames were simultaneously digested and extinguished.

Only then was the alchemy furnace opened, and immediately a rich aura of immortal energy and medicinal fragrance wafted out.

Fortunately, there was a formation, which prevented the information from being leaked.

However, after Li Jingxiao finished tidying up, there were nine Nine-Turn Golden Pills in the alchemy furnace.

Even after leaving the alchemy room, a considerable amount of spiritual energy and medicinal fragrance still wafted out.

Biyun Tongzi and Yunxia Tongzi felt refreshed and invigorated after just one sniff.

It's even like the ginseng fruit; just smelling it makes you feel like your lifespan has increased.

Moreover, a surge of celestial energy coursed through his body, subtly raising his cultivation level.

The way they looked at Li Jingxiao was full of anticipation and admiration.

Li Jingxiao only refined 9 pills this time, simply because they used half the amount of raw materials.

Li Jingxiao was actually not very willing to practice alchemy in reality.

It not only takes time, but also a lot of energy.

It's better to just put the raw materials into the alchemy room in the game and then not worry about anything else.

They can refine several batches every day.

Therefore, he has decided that from now on, he will only refine 9 pills per batch.

Moreover, the number of times the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir is refined should be limited to seven or eight times a year, just like Laozi did.

or even less.

Not only to show others, but also to avoid wasting more of your own time.

When you really need it, your inventory is full of Golden Elixirs that have been upgraded from level 5 to level 9.

As the three women saw Li Jingxiao emerge from the pass, they hurriedly stepped forward to ask him if he was tired.

Questions about whether the alchemy was successful.

Li Jingxiao smiled and nodded, then took out a purple-gold red gourd specifically for holding the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir.

After pouring out a Nine-Turn Golden Pill, he threw it directly into his mouth.

After careful evaluation, it was finally determined that it was the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir refined in the Investiture of the Gods.

It has the same medicinal effects and functions as the one refined in the Journey to the West world.

Only then did I feel relieved.

After the meal, he and three women spent three days in quiet contemplation.

Each person was given a Nine-Turn Golden Pill.

After watching the three sisters take the medicine, Li Jingxiao then became their protector.

Meanwhile, he kept a close eye on the three people's expressions, just in case something unexpected happened.

They can also provide immediate medical attention.
