The Demon Slayer Martial Saint Begins with Insect Refining

Chapter 217 Xia Wan'er's Purpose
Xia Wan'er spoke directly to the point with a bright look in her eyes, without any intention of hiding anything.

"Your information is quite good."

Su Yan showed a hint of surprise. Xia Wan'er smiled and said, "It's not that I'm well-informed, it's you who didn't keep it secret. You just reported to the Alchemy Pavilion a few months ago as a second-level lower-grade alchemist. It hasn't been that long, and you can already split an iron pill into eighteen portions. With such skills, you must be a third-level alchemist."

As she spoke, she secretly noticed Su Yan's expression, and found that he was calm, which made her even more surprised.

"He's such a freak! How can he have so much time to study?"

Others would like to spend all their time on cultivation, but he is different. His cultivation level is rising rapidly, and he can also master such alchemy techniques.

A third-level alchemist has never seen anything that can be achieved by warriors in the Divine Integration Stage.

That’s not right…Based on his physique, he should be able to withstand a furnace explosion.

Su Yan suddenly felt a slight chill on his back. He looked at Xia Wan'er suspiciously, feeling that she was thinking about something very offensive.

"I have never refined a third-level pill."

Su Yan shook his head slightly, but Xia Wan'er said, "I have the recipe, main ingredients, and most of the auxiliary materials for the Qigong Pill."

Su Yan's eyes lit up slightly. She didn't know that she had exchanged the recipe for the Zhongqiao Pill and also had the main ingredient.

"Having said that, it's not impossible to give it a try."

Xia Wan'er giggled: "It seems you have understood it."

If you don’t understand, how can you know that the materials of the Zhongqiao Pill are precious?

The effect of the Zhongqiao Pill is to open up the Danqiao, and it is mainly used in the fourth level of the True Meaning Realm, the Shenhe period. But in fact, for the real people in the Danqiao realm, taking a Zhongqiao Pill is also beneficial for them to open up the acupoints and prepare for the fourth heaven - the Starry Heaven.

The main ingredient needed for such a pill is undoubtedly precious, it is the Lingqiao Tongming Fruit.

The third-grade low-grade Lingqiao Tongming Fruit usually grows in caves in the mountains, on spiritual veins, and next to spiritual springs. It takes a lot of resources to find it.

Su Yan wanted to refine the Lingqiao Tongming Fruit, but there was no way to find it at the moment.

"There are third-level alchemists in the sect, so why are you looking for me alone?"

Su Yan asked curiously. Xia Wan'er rolled her eyes at him and said quietly, "Which third-level alchemist isn't a Danqiao Zhenren?"

Danqiao Zhenren, unless you are an elder in your sect, who would take the trouble to help you refine a third-level pill?

Even if she refined it, she couldn't offer a suitable reward.

And who said that asking Su Yan to make medicine is not an investment?
What's wrong with Xia Wan'er being an angel investor? Who wouldn't want to get close to such a monster?

"I've already prepared most of the materials. I'll give you the recipe for the Seeding Pill first. You can familiarize yourself with it first, and then I'll give you all the materials to make the pill. I'll only take one pill, and the rest will be my reward. If it fails, I'll give you another 2,000 contribution points."

"I don't need the recipe, just give me the ingredients."

what?
Xia Wan'er looked at Su Yan in surprise, then suddenly realized, "You've already exchanged the recipe for the Seeding Pill at the Alchemy Pavilion?!"

Su Yan nodded, and Xia Wan'er's eyes flashed with surprise. Since he had already exchanged for this pill recipe, it meant that he indeed had the ability to refine third-level pills.

And after pondering the recipe for the pill for so long, he must be more confident.

"It seems that I still underestimated my junior brother. Here."

Xia Wan'er took out the things directly. The Lingqiao Tongming Fruit and the auxiliary materials such as golden jade, fire essence, and green wood spirit milk were all in front of Su Yan, packed in brocade boxes of different sizes.

Su Yan opened it and took a look. The materials were all of very good quality.

"All the supplementary materials can be exchanged at the sect, but the Lingqiao Tongming Fruit is not one of them. I asked someone to get it from Lingnan Prefecture."

If someone in the sect had it up for sale, Xia Wan'er would have exchanged it long ago.

Even though its price is not low, it is still not much better than some third-level skills.

"We're still short of four auxiliary ingredients. If you can wait, I'll post a few quests at the sect's main hall."

Su Yan put the things away: "I have the rest here, and I have enough to replace the ones I don't have."

The most important thing in alchemy is the medicinal properties. It is impossible for every kind of elixir to remain unchanged for thousands of years.

Materials will eventually change due to time and place, but as long as the medicinal properties are right and they blend together, they will produce the same effect.

Mastering the medicinal properties is the key to being an alchemist.

Su Yan has mastered the three types of alchemy very well, and his Five Elements Alchemy has even reached the highest level. His understanding and control of medicinal properties has reached the third level, so he naturally has some confidence in his mind.

"The foolish ones are still thinking about competing for rankings, while the smart ones have already started taking action."

Su Yan smiled. He didn't know when Xia Wan'er started paying attention to him, but he could find things that were beneficial to him from clues and take the initiative to act. This woman Xia Wan'er was not ordinary smart.

"That's good, it saves me the time of searching for medicinal materials. But it would be even better if there was a Lingqiao Tongming Fruit Tree."

……

There are still two days left in the competition to climb the leaderboard, but the number of people who want to make the challenge in these two days is obviously much less than the day before.

Su Yan had long been listed by everyone as an object that could not be easily challenged, so like the top ten disciples, he was left idle.

He no longer paid much attention to the fight, but counted the materials one by one, one main material and more than twenty auxiliary materials, all ready.

He went up along the Beast King Sect and came directly to the main hall of the Alchemy Pavilion.

"Help me get a Grade A alchemy room."

When the disciple at the front desk heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then took out the token for Su Yan.

"100 contribution points a day."

The Type A Alchemy Room is located on the bottom floor of the entire Alchemy Pavilion and is almost the best alchemy room.

The underground fire is stable and extremely powerful. Under the arrangement of the spirit sealer and the formation master, the underground fire can be operated freely between subtle and fierce.

"one day"

Su Yan swiped the contribution value over, then took the A-2 token and walked towards the passage on the left.

The passage leads directly underground and is a winding stone path with a gentle slope. In the passage, which is three people wide, special patterns and animal patterns can be seen from time to time. The pupils of the animal patterns are night pearls, illuminating the entire corridor.

The passage and the entire Alchemy Pavilion were arranged with a special formation, which not only gathered the underground fire but also protected the entire Alchemy Pavilion from being overwhelmed by the underground fire and external forces.

Su Yan walked to the bottom level, where there was a dark blue metal door with the words "Jia Er" engraved on it.

The token was attached to it, and the blue-black metal door seemed to have wave-like patterns on it.

Su Yan walked in and immediately felt a surge of heat coming towards him.

The alchemy room is about two meters high and ten meters in radius. It is an extremely spacious room.

The room was covered with red lines on the walls and floor, interlaced with animal patterns like fire crows.

Just by staying in this space, Su Yan could feel the abundant spiritual energy and surging heat. This was an excellent place to refine medicine.

"Full of firepower, more powerful than the Flame Armor Demon Scorpion"

Su Yan showed a satisfied look. Although he was already very confident that he could refine the Zhongqiao Pill, with the help of this alchemy room, he would undoubtedly be able to speed up the process.

He waved his hand, and a second-grade, top-grade Blazing Furnace suddenly appeared before him. This Blazing Furnace was a newly purchased alchemy furnace in Nantian City. Its second-grade, top-grade quality was far superior to many weapons.

It originally belonged to Dachuan Danfang, and now it belongs to him.

Su Yan took out the materials one by one and placed them in front of him. At the same time, the Flame Armored Scorpion was summoned out.

"rise"

Su Yan controlled the formation patterns in the entire alchemy room through the token, and instantly several flames enveloped the alchemy furnace like flying crows.

Flame hot stove
Su Yan still felt that it was not enough. Although the flame controlled by the token was exquisite, it was still a little short of being as flexible as using one's own arm.

So he had a thought, and suddenly the strange flame of the Flame Armor Demon Scorpion poured out, turning into a blazing fire in the sky, and then immediately merged into the flame of alchemy.

The dancing flames were completely under the control of the Flame Armor Demon Scorpion. As the master of the Flame Armor Demon Scorpion, Su Yan used the fire control tricks in alchemy at this time. Suddenly, three fire dragons rose up and merged into the blazing furnace.

The furnace had been preheated. Su Yan clenched his left hand and the Lingqiao Tongming Fruit immediately flew into the furnace.

嗡

The spiritual energy suddenly dissipated, and the alchemy technique in Su Yan's hand changed. Several true essences intertwined and blocked like silk threads, forming a dense net, which completely blocked the spiritual energy and merged it into the blazing furnace.

In order to refine a spiritual orifice elixir, the Lingqiao Tongming Fruit needs to be repeatedly sacrificed and refined to remove impurities and extract the medicinal power that is sufficient to open the elixir orifice and connect the meridians.

The medicinal power of this spiritual fruit is all in the flesh and meridians. If it is damaged even a little, the efficacy will be reduced. You can't relax at all.

Su Yan spent a full hour refining the fruit, and even though he was very careful, 20% of the fruit's meridians were still damaged.

He calmed himself down, then threw the supporting treasures into the fire one by one.

An hour...

Two hours...

Three hours...

When the last ingredient of the elixir, the blood marrow of a second-level wild beast, was thrown into it, the originally calm spiritual power became like boiling water, wanting to rush out of the entire blazing furnace in an instant.

"Nine Dragon Pill Seal!"

Su Yan directly used the Nine Dragon Pill Seal, and combined with the exquisite control of the Five Elements Alchemy Technique and the Gu Dan Jue, he intercepted the riotous spiritual energy one by one, and at the same time sealed it into the furnace fire bit by bit.

This last step alone took Su Yan more than half an hour.

After the elixir was completed, the fire in the furnace stabilized and a wisp of elixir fragrance could not be suppressed and poured out of the furnace.

Just the fragrance of the elixir immediately gave Su Yan a slight shock.

He opened the blazing furnace and looked carefully. There were four pills in the furnace.

The green pill looks like jade and is only the size of a thumb, but the medicinal power it contains is enough to drive many people crazy.

Su Yan took out the four pills, sensed them for a moment, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he revealed a satisfied smile.

"They are all in perfect condition. This means I should be able to enter the ranks of third-level alchemists."

There are three grades of pills: slightly flawed, intact and super grade. Su Yan consumed a lot of the medicinal power of the Lingqiao Tongming Fruit when refining it, so naturally it could not reach the super grade.

However, intact condition is the norm for most alchemists.

"Try the effect."

There are four pills. According to the agreement, one of them is for Xia Wan'er, and the remaining three are his.

Su Yan had no intention of sharing the profits in half. How could he share the profits in half when he earned the elixirs with his own ability?

Moreover, for just one pill, even if it has a slight flaw, Xia Wan'er will not lose anything.

The value of a third-level elixir is not low to begin with, let alone an elixir that can consolidate the foundation and expand the upper limit.

Su Yan walked out of the alchemy room, returned the token, and went straight back to Xuanshuang Mountain.

It was already late at night, and the bright moon was hanging high in the sky, as if it was hanging over the mountain.

Su Yanpan was sitting in the yard, with no intention of appreciating the moon at all.

He took out the Zhongqiao Pill and swallowed it in one gulp. He immediately began to practice the Xingxiu Xuanshou Gong, the Five Poisons Body Casting Sutra, the Poison Dragon Golden Body Gong and other physical exercises.

His body was like a whirlpool, constantly absorbing and exhaling the spiritual energy from Xuanshuang Mountain. In the empty courtyard, it seemed as if a strong wind was blowing.

At the same time, great changes were taking place in Su Yan's body. After the Zhongqiao Pill entered his body, the medicinal power quickly dissipated and formed a storm.

The pain kept coming, as if millions of ants were gnawing at my meridians.

Pain, numbness, itching...

A variety of unbearable tastes are intertwined, from meridians to flesh and blood, and then to bone marrow.

"As expected, the notoriety isn't in vain. Pain in exchange for strength..."

Su Yan practiced his physical skills, and his strong body suppressed the pain a lot, but even so, the pain in his meridians still made his muscles twitch subconsciously.

The huge medicinal power of the Zhongqiao Pill was running rampant in his body, and the pain was also spreading.

Su Yan concentrated all his energy and tried to guide this medicinal power to find the location of the Danqiao among the hundreds of millions of meridian nodes.

In martial arts practice, after entering the Danqiao realm and condensing the upper, middle and lower Dantians, there is a point called the small Dantian.

The common acupoints secretly correspond to the number of Zhoutian. There are 365 acupoints throughout the body. Each acupoint is a star. Every star in the body will become a source of power for the warrior.

Therefore, the fourth level of the Danqiao realm, that is, in addition to the three Dantians of the sun, moon and stars, is also called the Xingqiao.

The reason why the Star Acupoint Pill is precious is that it can open the prototype of the Star Acupoint in advance, allowing people at the same level to have more Star Acupoints and master more powerful true essence.

Starting early means acting recklessly, so pain is inevitable.

'found it. ’

The constantly wandering medicinal power found a suitable node outside the Dantian below the meridian.

It was as if there was a crack, and all the medicinal power poured into it, with such powerful force that it almost tore his body apart.

A suppressed growl came from deep in his throat, and Su Yan's body trembled slightly. More true energy was mobilized to continuously stabilize the meridians and cracks around the acupoints and repair the scars.

After a quarter of an hour, Su Yan's face had turned slightly pale, and the pain finally disappeared.

In the Dantian, the true energy flows in like a trickle of water, and as it swirls, it seems to form another vortex of true energy.

A full one-third of the true energy in the body was used to fill the gap in this small star orifice.

Su Yan finally showed a look of joy: "According to the degree of accommodating true energy at this rate, once the small astral orifice is consolidated, the amount of true energy will increase by at least 30 to 40 percent."

A small star orifice can increase to this extent, if it is more, it is simply unimaginable.

"Give the pill to Xia Wan'er tomorrow first. As for the remaining two Danqiao, find a chance to use one and then give it away in exchange for the Lingqiao Tongming Fruit."

Fishing requires baiting. If Su Yan wants to have more kinds of acupoint pills, he really has to be willing to spread some rumors.
