Refining Ruins Cauldron

"It was this that helped me a lot back then."

"In short, just remember it well."

Nianchen gave him another reminder, afraid that Gu Qingyun wouldn't take it seriously.

The latter carefully put it away, looking at Nianchen with a devout and grateful expression.

"Thank you for your guidance, senior brother!"

Upon hearing this, Nianchen stopped worrying about the form of address and grinned.

"There's nothing to thank me for. Your current situation is just the same path I came from. I'll help you if I can."

"Perhaps I'll need your help even more in the future."

From this day forward, Gu Qingyun will officially reside in the Pill Hall.

They start work at dawn every day and continue until sunset.

The tasks were the same day after day, with not much change.

It was monotonous, but it was also quite fulfilling.

With that booklet, Gu Qingyun quickly got the hang of it, and with Nianchen's guidance, he was able to work with ease in less than a week.

Many medicinal herbs may seem harmless, but in reality, they harbor deadly dangers.

Several times, if Nianchen hadn't stopped him in time, he would have been a corpse by now.

Gu Qingyun was born with mixed spiritual roots of the five elements, giving him a certain affinity for medicinal herbs of various attributes.

Perhaps his understanding wasn't deep, but it allowed him to learn about medicinal herbs and rare plants, making his efforts twice as effective.

Gu Qingyun easily obtained many of the spiritual herbs that Nianchen had spent a long time figuring out.

This made the former a little curious: "Did you learn somewhere? How did you pick it up so quickly?"

Nianchen couldn't help but ask the question.

Gu Qingyun honestly shook his head.

"I come from a poor background, how could I have ever seen so many rare herbs and medicines? I just thought it wasn't difficult at all, and I could learn it in no time."

"Tsk tsk."

Nianchen shook his head, looking at Gu Qingyun with some envy.

"Back when I was learning these things, it took me a whole month to even get the basics down, and you've mastered it in less than a week."

"It seems that mixed spiritual roots aren't entirely useless. While cultivation is slower, they're naturally suited for this kind of work!"

Gu Qingyun smiled, but did not intend to respond.

Perhaps part of it was due to his mixed spiritual roots, but only he himself knew the real reasons.

The Flowing Qi Refining Technique!

This Five Elements Heavenly Rank Cultivation Technique is extremely profound; besides its application in cultivation, it can even help in identifying medicinal herbs.

Gu Qingyun could even see the flow of spiritual energy within each medicinal herb.

That mysterious and inexplicable feeling, which he couldn't explain or articulate, fascinated him greatly.

Perhaps, after practicing this technique, combined with his mixed spiritual roots, he would be extremely well-suited to alchemy in some ways.

Of course, this was just Gu Qingyun's guess.

But there was one thing that Gu Qingyun had always been curious about.

The Refining Cauldron can evolve all things, so what about a medicine prescription?

Just thinking about it makes Gu Qingyun excited!

In the stillness of the night, the only sounds were the chirping of insects.

Gu Qingyun slowly sat up straight, pricked up his ears, and only after confirming that there was no movement outside did he take out the "Dan Tang Jing".

This is a copy I made myself; Nianchen's copy has already been returned to its rightful owner.

After flipping through the "Dan Tang Jing" in his hand, Gu Qingyun pondered for a moment and then decided to take out the Refining Ruins Cauldron.

Without further hesitation, he handed the scriptures in.

Then, he closed his eyes and focused his mind, stepping his spiritual sense into the space of the Refining Ruins Cauldron.

The surroundings were plunged into darkness once more. As the familiar purple aura appeared, the scriptures that had been brought in transformed into two orbs of light.

Gu Qingyun's pupils contracted, and his heart pounded wildly.

This... has evolved into two possible outcomes?

He quickly took the ball of light and eagerly began to explore the information inside.

One of them is a Heaven-rank alchemy technique called "Five Elements Alchemy Technique".

The so-called alchemy is actually the mental techniques of alchemy.

For a cultivator to become an alchemist, the first thing they must do is learn an alchemy technique, just as a cultivator needs a cultivation method.

The alchemy technique determines the lower limit of an alchemist's skill, but this "Five Elements Alchemy Technique" is actually as high as the Heavenly Rank!

Gu Qingyun's breathing quickened, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

Alchemy techniques are rare to begin with. Even the lowest level, the Yellow Rank alchemy technique, is enough to make many cultivators scramble for it, let alone the Heaven Rank!

If this method were to be revealed, it would surely cause a bloodbath in the cultivation world!

Even Elder Huo Qian's power is only at the Xuan level!

Gu Qingyun suppressed his excitement and then activated the second beam of light.

"An alchemical text?!"

This "Dan Jing" is far superior to the "Dan Tang Jing".

The latter only records the basic properties of medicinal materials, while the "Dan Jing" records real prescriptions!

From the simplest Grade One pill, Guiyuan Pill, to the highest Grade Three Lingyuan Pill, all kinds of pills are available.

The further he turned the pages, the higher the grade of the pills became, to the point that even with Gu Qingyun's current level of knowledge, he found them obscure and difficult to understand.

The final chapter of the "Dan Jing" (Classic of Elixir) records a ninth-grade immortal elixir, the Qiankun Dan (Eternal Universe Pill)!

The Qiankun Pill can revive the dead and heal flesh and bones. As long as there is still a breath left, it can bring people back to life!

For ordinary cultivators, taking this can not only increase their cultivation level, but also significantly extend their lifespan!

Even for Golden Core cultivators, this pill can still work, preserving their primordial spirit from death and allowing their physical body to be reshaped!

Such a mysterious elixir naturally requires extremely demanding materials.

Gu Qingyun had never even heard of many of the names listed here.

Moreover, even if you emptied the entire Longevity Sect, you might not be able to gather all these treasures, let alone yourself.

This prescription is probably beyond what can be simply described as valuable.

"The pills made from a ninth-grade medicinal formula would probably all be able to develop sentience."

Gu Qingyun clicked his tongue inwardly, his hands trembling as he held the Refining Ruins Cauldron.

It took a long time before I slowly recovered.

A Heavenly Rank Alchemy Technique, an all-encompassing "Alchemy Classic," which even records the recipes for ninth-grade elixirs!

These things are enough to make any cultivator in the cultivation world fight tooth and nail for them!

"These things must absolutely not be leaked, not even a single word!"

Gu Qingyun took a deep breath and quickly packed everything away.

After checking outside the room a few more times to make sure no news had leaked out, he turned his attention back to the "Five Elements Imperial Elixir Technique".

The classics of alchemy can be studied slowly, but the art of alchemy requires time and reflection.

You can't become fat overnight; you have to prepare early.

The Five Elements Alchemy Technique is also based on the five elements. When combined with his cultivation technique, the Flowing Qi Refining Technique, it has even more miraculous effects, greatly increasing Gu Qingyun's perception and control of the five elements' spiritual energy.

You might not see any benefits in the short term, but over time, the cumulative effect will be quite different.

The key point is that the Five Elements Elixir Technique is different from other cultivation methods; it doesn't require too much of one's time, so as not to affect normal cultivation.

Without further hesitation, Gu Qingyun sat cross-legged on the bed and began to circulate the "Qi Circulation Refining Technique," adjusting his state to its optimal level through breathing exercises.

Next, he followed the method of the "Five Elements Elixir Control Technique" to regulate the spiritual energy within his body.

If the purpose of the "Flowing Qi Refining Technique" is to absorb spiritual energy into the body and strengthen oneself.

The "Five Elements Alchemy Technique" is about releasing and utilizing spiritual power in a special way.

Unbeknownst to him, a wisp of colorful flame appeared in Gu Qingyun's sea of ​​consciousness...
