Chapter 11: Finally Established the Foundation
As the mysterious voice fell, the two werewolves gradually revealed their figures.
Looking at two werewolves that looked exactly like the ones before, I felt my scalp tingling. (One was so miserable, and two werewolves…)
Just when I was frowning, a pair of red lips came close to me. My head was buzzing and I could clearly feel the temperature around me drop several degrees in an instant.
I could clearly feel that Gu Qinglan seemed to have become a different person in an instant.
Gu Qinglan turned around, raised her left hand slightly, and closed it slightly.
The two werewolves were covered with a thin layer of ice and were soon frozen into ice sculptures.
Gu Qinglan clenched her palms tightly, and the werewolf's body shattered. Then she turned around and stared at me with sharp eyes!
When I noticed Gu Qinglan's eyes, I felt a sense of fear.
Just when I didn't know what to do! Gu Qinglan softened.
That feeling of discomfort suddenly disappeared.
(No, there are too many!)
I quickly went over and hugged her.
"The fourth wave is over! The fifth wave begins."
As the mysterious voice fell, a dark figure gradually appeared in front of him, but his face could not be seen clearly, and he did not make any movements.
Suddenly, a layer of light appeared around me. It felt like something hit me, and then it disappeared. I stared at the gradually disappearing shadow with a puzzled look on my face.
"Fifth wave, over!"
(Is it over? No, why did the light shield just now feel a little off...) I reached into my arms and took out the jade pendant.
The jade pendant shattered at this moment and turned into powder.
(I really want to curse, this is compulsory use of props. The life-saving thing given by the master is gone, just like that, and I was forced to use it both times).
"Go through the light curtain and enter the second level!"
A majestic voice sounded.
(Calm down, calm down. The first level is so dangerous, the second level is probably not much better. Let’s wait until she wakes up.)
It's been a long time
Gu Qinglan woke up slowly and asked puzzledly.
"Has the fifth round passed?"
"Well, passed."
I nodded, but felt a little lost.
"Oh."
Gu Qinglan did not continue to ask, she knew that everyone had some little secrets, then she sat down and began to recover her strength.
(The first level is so dangerous, so be careful!)
An unknown amount of time had passed before Gu Qinglan opened her eyes again and found Lin Yixuan observing the surrounding stone walls.
"What do you mean, what did you find?"
"The material of this stone wall is very hard and looks very precious. It's a pity that it can't be taken down!"
I spoke of my discovery very seriously.
"…It's already this hour, and you still have the mind to joke."
Gu Qinglan said with a dark face.
"The second level will definitely be more dangerous. Will they reveal everything to each other?" I asked seriously.
(What other cards do I have left? Even my biggest card is gone.)
"Okay, let's get to know each other again. I'm an elder of the 'Qionghua Immortal Sect' of Ji Country, in the middle stage of Jindan. I know a little bit about the sect's swordsmanship. My biggest trump card is the 'Ice God Technique' that I practiced, which can instantly improve my cultivation by several levels, but the duration is not long, and it cannot be used continuously!"
Gu Qinglan hesitated for a moment and continued.
"And the thunderbolt you just used is the last one!"
(With such a huge improvement in cultivation, this Ice God Technique is probably really a god-level technique)
"Korea, Jinxiu Mountain. As for my master, my master didn't mention it. I only know that they all call my master Xuanyi Zhenren. I have currently reached the great perfection of refining weapons, and I have some knowledge of medical skills. I am a Xuan-grade alchemist."
"Master Xuanyi? I've heard of him a little bit. I heard he has a strange personality. I didn't expect you to be his disciple. Wait, Xuan-grade? Are you sure you're not mistaken? Don't Xuan-grade pills require a foundation-building process to be refined?"
Gu Qinglan asked doubtfully.
"I have my own way of refining it, you don't have to worry about it. See if there is any way to help me advance to the Foundation Establishment Stage. With my Qi Refining Stage alone, I will definitely not survive the second level."
"Well, although I don't have the Foundation Establishment Pill, I still have some materials for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, and I also have the recipe. Since you can refine the Xuan-grade elixir, it just so happens that I will give you the materials and the recipe. You should hurry up and refine it. However, I heard that the Foundation Establishment Pill is extremely difficult to refine. I don't have many materials, so take it easy!"
As Gu Qinglan spoke, she took out the herbs and pill recipe from her ring and handed them to me.
I took the herbs, took out the alchemy furnace, and prepared to refine them.
"What a broken alchemy furnace you have. Forget it. I'll give you one!"
Gu Qinglan said this with disdain, then took out a vermilion alchemy furnace from her ring and threw it over.
I took the furnace, felt the abundant fire energy inside, looked at the bronze furnace I bought, and put it away silently.
"Also, I'll give you this ring. Even though it's not big, it's better than having to put everything in your arms." Gu Qinglan said as she threw another ring over.
I dropped blood on the ring and put it on my hand. The space inside was not big, only about ten square meters.
But it's big enough for me.
(The space rings sold outside are very expensive, and the starting price is often 5 high-grade spirit stones. You should know that one high-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for 100 medium-grade spirit stones, which can be exchanged for one low-grade spirit stone. And this 10-square-meter ring is worth at least 20 high-grade spirit stones. It turns out that the people in the sect are rich and generous!).
I looked carefully at the various herbs and ingredients, and then at the prescription.
(Hmm~ I feel that there is something wrong with this prescription. Except for one medicinal ingredient which is cold in nature, the whole herbs and materials are strong in nature. Isn't this a pure bomb? It has already exploded before the last step, not to mention the use of ice fairy flowers to blend it in the last step. If this can succeed, the luck will be absolutely against the sky!).
"Are you sure this recipe is correct?"
I asked somewhat uncertainly.
"Yeah, that's it, what's the problem?"
Gu Qinglan asked in confusion.
"nothing!"
(Forget it. I guess she doesn’t know how to make an elixir. It’s no use telling her.) I’d better study the elixir formula.
(According to the description of the pill recipe, I should be able to improve the success rate of alchemy by simply replacing some of the herbs with stronger potency but similar effects. Then I can control the quantity based on the properties of yin and yang harmony and the upper limit of energy...)
As expected, although the furnace did not explode, the elixir was ruined!
"So this is how the elixir is made... Take it easy, we don't have much material left!"
Gu Qinglan talked to herself and reminded.
(It should be that the quantity is wrong. It cannot suppress the main properties of the herbs. You need to increase the amount of auxiliary medicine little by little to suppress the extra medicinal properties.)
After two furnaces of waste pills and one furnace of explosion pills, it was finally refined!
(Although the finished product is average, it is still acceptable because the prescription can be fine-tuned. I will write it down first.)
I took out a pen and started to make changes on the recipe.
"I didn't expect that you could actually refine it. But what are these extra herbs?"
Gu Qinglan said this, pointing at some unfamiliar medicinal herbs around and asking questions.
I didn't say anything, but continued refining. In the end, I refined 6 foundation-building pills, and the quality was getting higher and higher.
"You...you, you! You didn't fail once. Didn't they tell me that my foundation-building pill was extremely difficult to refine? Are they lying to me?"
Gu Qinglan scratched his head and talked to himself.
"It's okay. I want to try to break through. Please help me protect the magic."
After saying that, I threw the foundation-building pill into my mouth.
As the pill entered the mouth, it immediately turned into a warm current that rushed straight to the Dantian, constantly impacting the invisible barriers around the Dantian.
(It seems that one is not enough, keep eating.)
By the time he had taken the fifth pill, the invisible barrier at his dantian had basically disappeared, and the foundation-building pills he had taken turned into streams of spiritual energy that gathered in his dantian, and then turned into streams of purer spiritual energy that filled his entire body. He then continued to beat his entire body, and felt a sense of being reborn.
I let out a long breath.
(Finally a breakthrough!)
Gu Qinglan stared at me, up, down, left and right, and then asked.
"There's something wrong with you. Others take one pill and it takes a long time to refine it, but you took several pills in a row and didn't explode to death! Not only that, you even succeeded in breaking through. There's definitely something wrong with you. Tell the truth!"
Gu Qinglan looked like she wanted to get to the bottom of the matter.
"Well, my physique is quite special. My bones are tougher than others, so it is more difficult for me to absorb and break through. Otherwise, I would not have reached the Qi Refining Stage until now."
I quickly argued.
"So that's it!"
Gu Qinglan suddenly realized.
"Okay, I've made a breakthrough! Let's go to the second level."
I quickly changed the subject and pulled Gu Qinglan towards the light curtain!
