The Strongest Knight

"With your talent, it won't be a problem for you to become a disciple of the Jindan Master in the sect."

"I have been practicing Taoism for more than sixty years. Relying on the ability of an alchemist, what I have hidden among the foundation-building immortals is quite rich, but compared with the golden elixir immortals, it pales in comparison."

"However, if you really want to be my disciple, I will help you with both the fire-attributed skills you want to major in and my alchemy skills."

It was indeed the talent displayed by Zhao Qinghe that moved Master Xing Huai.

At first, he was a little skeptical of what the Taoist boy Hua Wuque said, thinking that the Taoist boy was deliberately exaggerating in order to favor his friend.

It was not until he actually met Zhao Qinghe that Xing Huai Zhenren was very satisfied with Zhao Qinghe's talent and intelligence that he realized Hua Wuque was not exaggerating at all.

A genius like Zhao Qinghe, who is outstanding in both spiritual talent and zodiac talent, often only appears once in several decades or even longer.

The talent for cultivation represents the upper limit of cultivation, while the zodiac talent represents combat effectiveness, which will increase the success rate of the cultivator.

After careful consideration, Zhao Qinghe finally decided to become a disciple of Master Xinghuai.

Not to mention whether he would be harmed by Changle Zhenren in the process of searching for Jindan Zhenren again.

Zhao Qinghe was indeed interested in Master Xinghuai's alchemy.

Among the three major skills of monks, alchemy, weapon refining, and talisman making, alchemy ranks first, because the results of this skill can directly affect and improve the cultivation of monks.

A cultivator in the Yuanjing period can only be slaughtered by others even if he has a spiritual weapon, but with elixirs, he can improve himself quickly.

For a cultivator, the most fundamental thing is to cultivate oneself.

"Master, I would like to become your disciple." Zhao Qinghe expressed his feelings again.

"Okay! In this way, from today on, you will be my first direct disciple!" Master Xinghuai was very happy.

Taoist Xing Huai's talent for cultivation was not high. In his early years, he had been immersed in alchemy and cultivation, and had no time to accept disciples.

Today, he finally accepted Zhao Qinghe, a talented disciple, and he was in a very good mood.

In this way, Zhao Qinghe became a disciple of Xinghuai Zhenren of Changchun Peak. In the ranking of all disciples in the sect, and at the meeting of blue-robed inner disciples, he was listed as a direct disciple of the black-robed Taoist priest.

The black-robed disciples are the future pillars of the sect. Except for special tasks, they generally do not need to perform ordinary sect tasks. Their only goal is to inherit the master's mantle and improve their own strength as soon as possible.

......

In the blink of an eye, Zhao Qinghe had been at Changchun Peak for three months.

Liu Changle did not come to visit for three months, which was within Zhao Qinghe's expectations.

It seems that even if Liu Changle has a purpose and wants to overthrow Noda's Liuhua Sect, the time and energy required will not be a one-time thing.

Zhao Qinghe is currently too weak and doesn’t want to get involved.

When the time is right, maybe I will find a way to release the relevant news.

However, for Liu Changle to be able to sneak in so safely, he must have something to rely on. If you want to expose Liu Changle, it is definitely not as simple as finding a golden elixir to report.

On this day, the weather at Changchun Peak was sunny and beautiful, living up to the name Changchun, with lush greenery everywhere.

Today is the second New Year that Zhao Qinghe has spent in Liuhua Sect.

Zhenren Xinghuai also escaped from the secular world and joined the sect. He had experienced secular etiquette, so there was some New Year atmosphere on Changchun Peak.

The servants of Changchun Peak made Changchun Peak look joyful.

Apart from Master Xinghuai, there are only a few people of status in Changchun Peak. One is his direct disciple Zhao Qinghe, and the others are four Taoist children including Hua Wuque.

Therefore, Zhao Qinghe's status on Changchun Peak is quite high.

In the world of cultivation, it is impossible to complete inheritance based on mundane blood ties.

Not to mention that it is difficult for a person who practices Taoism to conceive a life. Even if they do, the life may not necessarily be talented in practicing Taoism.

The inheritance of the monastic world is often completed by one's own disciples.

Xing Huai Zhenren was very open about his only direct disciple. For the past three months, Zhao Qinghe's daily schedule was fully scheduled.

In terms of cultivation, Master Xing Huai was not stingy with elixirs, but he limited the number of times Zhao Qinghe could use them.

Because it takes a very long time to eliminate the poison in the body through practicing Taoism, too much poison remaining in the body will be harmful rather than beneficial to future advancement.

Even though he could only take the pill once a month, Zhao Qinghe was able to advance again within three months and reached the fifth level of Yuan Jing!

This is the effect of Zhao Qinghe's basic formula for maxing out his cultivation speed. In the eyes of Xing Huai Zhenren, this is the embodiment of Zhao Qinghe's talent for cultivation.

Every day, Zhao Qinghe must spend some time learning alchemy knowledge.

The knowledge of alchemy covers a wide range.

If you want to learn comprehensively, you even have to start from spiritual plants. After all, without spiritual medicines, alchemists cannot create pills out of thin air.

You have to learn the effects of each elixir and how to use it in different elixirs.

Fortunately, after becoming a cultivator, his energy increased, his practice time increased, and his memory also improved greatly. Zhao Qinghe learned these basic knowledge very quickly.

Every time when Xing Huai reached the crucial moment of refining the elixir, he would let Zhao Qinghe watch from the side.

Although Zhao Qinghe made the pills for himself, he also had a detailed understanding of the alchemy process.

The Ling Yun Shu must at least enter the Three Flowers Realm to reach the standard of cultivation. Once Zhao Qinghe has cultivated to the Three Flowers Realm, he can try to refine the first batch of pills.

On New Year's Day, Xing Huai Zhenren stopped refining the elixir, which was rare, and gave a lecture on behalf of his direct disciple Hua Qinghe and four Taoist children.

Zhao Qinghe didn't gain anything, but the four Taoist children were enjoying listening to him.

Originally, Zhao Qinghe thought that as time went by, his strength would improve rapidly and steadily.

But on the third day after the New Year, an uninvited guest came to Changchun Peak.

This person is none other than the master of the Outer Gate Deacon Hall, Liu Changle, also known as Changle Zhenren.

True Man Changle is less than fifty years old, but he has already reached the eighth level of foundation building. Compared with True Man Xinghuai, who is over seventy years old but has only reached the seventh level of foundation building, his talent is much higher.

However, Master Xinghuai is good at refining pills, and judging from their current status in the sect, the two are really on par with each other.

Changle Zhenren naturally did not come to cause trouble, at least that was the case on the surface.

He came to ask Xing Huai Zhenren to refine the Black Soul Pill.

The Black Soul Pill is a very precious pill that can effectively improve the cultivation of cultivators in the later stages of foundation building.

"Junior brother Changle, I can refine the Black Soul Pill, but it is quite difficult to refine, and my success rate is only 40 to 50 percent." Master Xinghuai stroked his white beard and spoke. He was still very polite to this junior brother who might be the next sect leader in the future.

“Haha, it’s okay. If you fail, just consider it as training for me. Besides, I have prepared three sets of materials. I believe I can make one furnace successfully.” Changle Zhenren said with a smile.

"Three sets of materials? Then put down the materials, brother. I will do my best to refine the Black Soul Pill for you." Xinghuai Zhenren said.
