Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 190 Dragon and Tiger Marrow Nourishing Pill!
Even the leader of Yaowang Mountain had to be polite when meeting him.

Because he is one of the three alchemy masters of Yaowang Mountain, his full name is Situ Yan!

After all, Yaowang Mountain was founded on alchemy as its main business, so everyone from the sect leader and elders to the ordinary disciples attaches great importance to the art of alchemy.

The disciples who are proficient in alchemy have an extraordinary status within the mountain gate.

Even an alchemist is comparable to a true disciple.

Not to mention the even rarer alchemy masters.

And the key point is that although Situ Yan belongs to the aristocratic family faction, he himself has a close connection with the sect lineage. Therefore, he is not as hostile to the sect lineage as people from other aristocratic family factions. At most, neither side will help each other.

Even Zhenren He Ling had some friendship with him.

The reason why Gu Yuan came here this time was because True Man He Ling had already greeted Situ Yan and asked this senior brother to take good care of Gu Yuan.

"Are you Gu Yuan?"

Situ Yan looked at Gu Yuan, his expression unchanged, and his reaction was indifferent: "Junior Brother He Ling has greeted me. You can stay here for the time being. If you need anything, you can come to me."

"Thank you, uncle."

Gu Yuan was naturally quite respectful.

This Uncle Master Situ has a lot of experience and his cultivation is higher than that of True Man He Ling. We have to be respectful to him. In the next few days, we will have to rely on this big guy's protection.

"Well, okay, you two go down first."

Situ Yan waved his hand and started to drive people away.

His time is precious and he is busy refining the elixir. Being able to take time out to meet Gu Yuan is also a favor to his old friend.

Now is the critical moment for him to refine the elixir, and he cannot be affected by anything.

Seeing this, Feng Shaojie glanced at Gu Yuan with a subtle expression.

Although Junior Brother Gu has good qualifications, he is not treated differently by the Master.

But it is also true that Master is just like the Danxia Patriarch in the sect. He is keen on the art of alchemy and is indifferent to other things.

"Yes, the disciple retire."

Gu Yuan saluted again, then subconsciously glanced at the alchemy furnace in front of Situ Yan, the real fire inside, and especially the elixir, which made him secretly astonished.

"Wait!"

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Situ Yan called out to him.

"Master, is there anything else?"

Gu Yuan was puzzled.

Situ Yan's voice came: "I heard from Junior Brother He Ling that you are very interested in alchemy? Do you want to learn it?"

Before Gu Yuan could say anything, Feng Shaojie was stunned and looked at Gu Yuan with a hint of suspicion.

The art of alchemy is an unconventional practice, but it also contains the ultimate principles of heaven and earth. Once you reach a deep level, it can also benefit yourself.

However, this kind of external path is also profound and difficult to learn, because learning alchemy requires extremely high talent and understanding.

It doesn't mean that the required qualifications are any kind of spiritual body, but rather that one must have a very high understanding of alchemy.

However, those who possess this kind of understanding are almost rare, if not exceptional.

Just looking at the Yaowang Mountain today, it took all the efforts of the sect to produce hundreds of alchemists, more than a dozen alchemists, three alchemy masters, and one alchemy grandmaster, and we can draw some conclusions.

Even Feng Shaojie had studied alchemy, but unfortunately he didn't have the talent, so he gave up in time to avoid delaying his own practice. Now that he knew Gu Yuan wanted to learn alchemy, he just thought it was a bit ridiculous.

Yes!
Gu Yuan’s talent for cultivation is good. One is his water spirit body, and the other is his swordsmanship talent.

In the eyes of many people on Yaowang Mountain, this kind of talent is not much inferior to Li Changsheng's Pure Yang Taoist Body.

Especially since Gu Yuan is now a disciple of the sect's master, Master He Ling.

But having a good talent for cultivation does not mean having a good talent for alchemy.

Besides, Gu Yuan’s cultivation level is not high. He should focus on practicing now. Why should he learn alchemy?

That’s right, the art of alchemy is indeed profound and has many benefits for forming pills in the future, but the problem is that Gu Yuan has just been promoted to the Heavenly Man Realm.

This is a good time to cultivate supernatural powers and lay the foundation for forging the golden elixir.

Gu Yuan used such precious time to learn alchemy. In his opinion, it was really putting the cart before the horse and even a bit arrogant.

After all, for a cultivator, the realm of cultivation should be prioritized.

wrong!

Could it be that this kid knew about his master's preferences and was pretending to be interested in alchemy?

However, Feng Shaojie changed his mind and came up with other guesses.

Gu Yuan replied respectfully: "Disciple is indeed very interested in alchemy."

"Yeah……"

Situ Yan couldn't deny it and said, "Then what do you think of the elixir I'm refining now?"

"Then I am sorry for the inconvenience. If there is anything I said that is wrong, please do not blame me."

Gu Yuan was not at all stage-frightened. He took a few steps forward and examined the elixir and the true fire in the alchemy furnace. Then he stepped back and nodded, saying, "If I am not mistaken, the elixir that Master-uncle is refining should be a Dragon-Tiger Marrow-Replenishing Pill!"

"This elixir is made with dragon blood and tiger bone marrow as its main ingredients, supplemented by one hundred and sixty-seven kinds of spiritual herbs. It has the effect of healing wounds and replenishing one's essence, and it also has a certain effect of prolonging lifespan. Even if a Jindan cultivator is seriously injured, their essence is greatly damaged, and their energy is exhausted, as long as the injury does not affect their soul, they can be saved in time."

Situ Yan was somewhat surprised to hear this. The fact that Gu Yuan could describe it in such detail, especially since he had only been a disciple of He Ling Zhenren for a few months, proved that he had truly studied alchemy seriously, and this was undeniable.

"Any more?"

he asked again.

Knowing these things doesn’t mean anything. As long as you memorize some alchemy classics, you will naturally see these things.

Gu Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "The Dragon and Tiger Marrow Nourishing Pill is called the Dragon and Tiger, but it actually contains and utilizes the principles of Yin and Yang."

"The dragon is yin, the tiger is yang, only in this way can the elixir be perfected."

Gu Yuan spoke eloquently, "Uncle Master, although you used true fire to refine the elixir just now, you didn't actually fully unleash the fire. Instead, you used the method of clearing and turbidity to separate the medicinal properties from the impurities, and then extracted the required medicinal properties from the various spiritual medicines, such as cold, hot, sinking, floating, rising, and descending."

"The medicinal properties of these elixirs are primarily based on the power of the dragon and tiger. Combining them in sequence, they complement each other as yin and yang, and complement each other's interior and exterior, forming a balance. Ultimately, they need to be nurtured for 49 days before the elixir can be formed."

"..."

Sima Yan didn't react much at first, but the more he listened, the more dazed his expression became.

When Gu Yuan finished speaking, a smile appeared on his face. The look in his eyes when he looked at Gu Yuan changed, and he said good repeatedly:
"Good, good! What a good way to be yin and yang, what a good way to be inside and outside!"

"Boy, even though your cultivation is not that great, the fact that you can say this shows that you have a keen eye and a solid foundation in alchemy!"
