Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 13 I can't help laughing when I think about what I'm going to do next

"Me?" Lin Jian thought for a moment, "Seventy percent leans towards gold, twenty percent leans towards wood, and the remaining ten percent is a mess."

According to the concepts I have learned from cultivating immortals in the forest for eight years, the purer the spiritual roots, the more noble they are.

He was only 70% inclined towards one lineage, and in the eyes of the sect he was only qualified enough to practice cultivation.

If we have to classify them, they can probably be classified as medium spiritual roots, and above them there are superior spiritual roots, heavenly spiritual roots, fairy spiritual roots, and so on.

Cultivators with natural spiritual roots and immortal spiritual roots are naturally more likely to achieve success than others. For example, Junior Brother Bai has natural spiritual roots. He has successfully established his foundation three years after entering the mountain gate after being in the forest.

But the question is, in the world of immortal cultivation where talent determines everything, how can those immortal cultivation families ensure that the second and third generations of their own immortals can always maintain the glory of the family?

That is naturally... the Spiritual Root Creation Pill, also known as the Five Elements Pill.

This is a treasure that can slowly purify a cultivator's spiritual roots towards a certain system. For example, the Five Elements Golden Spirit Pill that my senior brother is currently refining can gradually transform a cultivator's spiritual roots into one that is completely inclined towards the gold system.

However, the medicinal properties of this kind of medicine are mild, and it takes time to change the effect. Secondly, the dosage is very large, and most people cannot afford it.

Even if Lin Jian had a good relationship with his senior brother and he picked up a few mouthfuls of medicinal residues that fell on the ground to eat, the effect on the change of his spiritual roots would be minimal.

"Gold element?" Haruyuki muttered to himself, then asked in a dazed tone, "So, how efficient are you at absorbing spiritual energy? How is it?"

Lin Jian glanced at her and asked, "I've been practicing Qi for eight years and you're asking me?"

Thank you for the invitation. I am in the world of cultivating immortals and have been practicing Qi for eight years and am at the bottom of the list.

His fellow junior fellow who joined the sect three years later than him has already successfully established his foundation. It is difficult for him, a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, to evaluate the word "efficiency".

"0.o" For someone like Chunxue who had been building his foundation for half a month, it was difficult to understand how Qi Refining could take eight years.

"What are you two whispering about?" The noise between the two seemed to disturb the eldest brother who was controlling the fire not far away. He had been silent all this time and suddenly shouted, "Junior Brother Jian, come here."

"Here I come." Lin Jian put down the pestle and stood up.

Watching the figure leaving the forest, Chunxue's bright eyes shone with excitement. "Golden Spiritual Root, there just so happens to be the ingredients for the Golden Spirit Pill here..."

The eldest brother who had called Lin Jian to his side tilted his head to glance at the mortal woman absentmindedly pounding medicine in the distance, then turned his gaze to the junior brother in front of him, "Junior brother Jian, Master has told me everything about you. I also gave you a simple lesson on temperature control yesterday. Now try it again."

Since he had promised his master to let him stay a grade for inspection, Lin Jian naturally had to express his gratitude.

Lin Jian didn't have any preference among the several options given by the master, but everything depended on money.

After all, in addition to the sect's "academic" assessment, he also owed a 30,000 yuan loan from a bad sect in society.

The eldest brother who is good at alchemy is the most generous. Even if you are an apprentice, it is obvious that you will have better prospects of making money if you follow him.

Lin Jie walked past the eldest brother's seat and stretched his right hand towards the outer wall of the huge furnace.

It was a translucent diamond-shaped crystal area, inlaid on the outer wall of the furnace like a dazzling sapphire.

After Lin Jian put his right hand on it, the true energy in his body connected with it in a timely manner.

A warm touch came from the palm of my hand. When I concentrated and sensed it, I knew the temperature of the flame in the furnace.

"How do you feel today?" the eldest brother asked with concern.

"It's fluctuating..." Lin Jian honestly reported what he perceived.

"I've made progress." The eldest brother nodded with satisfaction, his honest face filled with gentleness. "The alchemy furnace draws the fire from the earth. Although it's filtered and controlled by a magic array, how can natural fire remain absolutely stable? Amidst these subtle fluctuations, you must maintain absolute stability in the furnace's temperature. This is the first step in alchemy—fire control."

"That was the most critical period for the elixir furnace to form pills. Now that the furnace is empty, you will be responsible for preheating the next batch of pills. It will also be a good opportunity to familiarize yourself with the furnace temperature."

"Yeah." Lin Jian nodded seriously.

The so-called preheating is to pre-treat the furnace with a gentle flame before officially putting in the medicinal materials.

This step is to ensure that the furnace reaches a suitable temperature environment and help drive out impurities that may be present in the furnace.

At the same time, the temperature is slowly raised to facilitate initial processing of the raw materials newly put into the furnace.

Different raw materials require different temperatures. The main material of the Five Elements Golden Spirit Pill, the Golden Essence Stone, is undoubtedly the one that has the highest requirements for furnace temperature.

Lin Jian carefully controlled the injection of his true energy, trying his best to control the furnace temperature to rise slowly.

rise……

rise……

"Click!" There was a dull sound of a valve closing, and the senior brother calmly reminded Lin Jian, "The temperature is too high, try again."

"it is good."

……

"Clap!"

"The temperature is too low, try again."

……

"Clap!"

"You are the Three Mysterious Transformations of Earth and Fire! Come again."

"Clap!"

“(gritting teeth) What a series of ups and downs… let’s start over again!”

"Clap!"

"Clap!"

"Clap!"

……

"Hong Wen, Hong Wen." Chun Xue grinned not far away.

"What are you all trying to do?" Lin Jian glared at her and told her not to make trouble.

As he glared at her, he caught a glimpse of a large red face emitting steam from the corner of his eye.

"Senior...brother?"

Senior Brother Hong Wen suddenly cut off the alchemy furnace's supply of earth fire and, with an impatient expression, he peppered Lin Jian with soul-searching questions, "Who sent you? What's your purpose? What do you want to do here?"

"Alchemy." Lin Jian blinked innocently.

"Haha!" Senior Brother opened the gate again with a red face, "Keep going! One of us must die between me and the furnace today!"

"Then I'd rather die?" The cricket in the forest tried to escape.

It’s so difficult to make elixirs, I don’t know how to do it at all!
"You are not allowed to die! You must practice!" The hot-headed senior brother untied his Taoist robe and turned to leave. "You must practice right here for me. You are not allowed to run away! If I don't see the furnace explode when I come back, I will fry one first to show you!"

"boom!"

After the door slammed shut, the eldest brother patted his red face outside.

"Calm down, calm down. I've been watching Xiaojian for a while and I think he's under pressure too. Let him try it on his own for a while and see how it goes..."

After all, it was the master's instruction. If his fellow brothers didn't help him, no one else would.

"But, Master... is it really okay to let a junior fellow with a gold spiritual root refine the elixir?"

I'm not born with a fire-attributed spiritual root because I'm sensitive to flames, so my major is not suitable for me.

"Forget it, forget it."

The eldest brother stretched out lazily in the sun, thinking that since the materials for the next batch of pills were not ready yet, he might as well go out for a walk in the mountains.

How long has it been since you breathed fresh air?
……

Seeing his senior brother leaving, Chunxue approached with a sly look in his eyes, holding a medicine pestle.

"brother."

"What?" Lin Jian responded unhappily.

Looking at his hands, he couldn't understand why he couldn't even control the temperature of the fire.

Dead hand, you are in control!

Will it be temperature controlled?
"Believe me or not?" Chunxue's eyebrows were beaming. When she thought about what she was going to do next, she couldn't help laughing.
