Chapter 47 Pharmacist and Gunpowder(1/2)
"Special source of energy—source of medicine?"
Lin Yufeng was stunned for a moment, and then asked in confusion: "How do you say this?"
While controlling the heat, Mr.
It is very useful. Although it is impossible to break through several levels of cultivation with just a small amount like Source Qi, the source of medicine can make up for your talent - that is to say, as long as you have the help of the source of medicine, you can control it with other talents.
Just comparable."
"What's more important!" Mr. Xuan lowered his voice and said solemnly: "The source of medicine can nurture the growth of the origin of Tianlei!"
"So good?" Lin Yufeng's eyes lit up slightly after hearing what Mr. Xuan said.
During the journey of cultivation, the former and later generations concluded that they only look at four things: talent, understanding, state of mind, and opportunities.
The fact that talent is ranked at the top is quite telling. The talents of those strong people are generally not that bad. This is why many forces first look at qualifications when recruiting disciples.
Although understanding, state of mind, and opportunity are also key factors in cultivation, these three are still slightly less important than talent.
Otherwise, how can those who are less talented but have good understanding go through all the trouble to take the imperial examination? Even if they become the prime minister of a country, with power over the whole government, one person is below them and ten thousand people are above them, their lives are still in the hands of those cultivators.
in hand.
Astonishing the world with literary talents, it is not as good as astonishing the world with cultivation—this is why many people want to embark on the path of cultivation.
With only a full belly of literary talents and no self-preservation ability, if a cultivator cuts you down with a knife, your heart will be as high as the sky, your grace will be unparalleled, but you will die of hatred, turn into a handful of loess, and become the dust of history.
What Lin Yufeng most urgently lacks is undoubtedly talent. Without the help of Origin Qi, it is difficult to achieve anything. The journey of cultivation is like being stuck in a swamp, and it is difficult to move forward.
However, hearing what Mr. Xuan said made Lin Yufeng feel shocked.
Source of medicine!
You can make up for your own talents!
More importantly, the medicinal source can make Tianlei's origin grow!
You know, Lin Yufeng has always known that only Origin Qi can assist the growth of Tianlei's origin. However, now that there is an additional source of medicine, how can he not be happy and excited at the same time?
If the origin of Tianlei could be grown rapidly with the help of medicinal sources, what kind of shock would it have to the world?
The real power of heavenly thunder can be said to be like ‘with a snap of your fingers, the strong will be wiped out’!
Kill the same rank, destroy all the strong ones, sweep the world, and destroy all things with just one thought in your mind.
If it can reach such a level, why should the Lin family worry about rising? Why should Lin Yufeng be afraid of the big shots behind the scenes?
Thinking of this, Lin Yufeng couldn't help but get a little excited, and said anxiously: "Grandpa Xuan, please go on."
Mr. Xuan pondered for a moment and continued: "Although the source of medicine is of great benefit to you, the conditions required are quite modest. But in general, it is better than searching for the source of Qi."
"What conditions?" Lin Yufeng naturally knew that there was no such a good free lunch, but as long as it was not difficult to search for the pitifully small amount of Origin Qi across the continent, that would be fine.
"First, the extraction of medicinal sources must be medicinal materials that are over a hundred years old and must be extremely pure." Mr.
Pure medicinal source.”
"Medicine?" Lin Yufeng raised his eyebrows slightly.
Although century-old medicinal materials are rare, they are not as rare as Origin Qi, but they are quite expensive. As for thousand-year holy medicines, ten-thousand-year elixirs, etc., they are even rarer, as hard to find as the head of a dragon or the tail of a phoenix.
According to Lin Yufeng's guess, I am afraid that these medicinal materials that are thousands of years old can only be found in some ancient ruins or ancient areas. However, there are many powerful beings in these places, and it is not possible to break in casually.
Be careful, even a highly accomplished cultivator will die due to hatred...
"Grandpa Xuan, when you say this, it seems to be no different from searching for the source of energy?" Lin Yufeng thought for a moment and then said with a wry smile.
Although it is easier to find the source of medicine than to find the source of Qi, the former is extremely dangerous and difficult. Without a certain level of strength, there is only a dead end to explore the ancient regions.
Furthermore, Lin Yufeng is not the only one who covets these things. The other cultivators also have greedy and monopolistic intentions. After all, these ancient medicinal materials are of great use to cultivators.
Mr. Xuan shook his head and scolded angrily: "You kid, do you still expect to get pie in the sky every time? The medicinal resources contained in century-old medicinal materials are quite rare. At your current stage, it may still be useful.
However, once the realm reaches a certain level, you will need thousand-year holy medicine, ten-thousand-year elixir, or even the legendary ancient magic medicine."
Hearing this, Lin Yufeng's face fell, and he said bitterly: "But this is too difficult."
"Haha, if you want to become a strong person, how can you not work hard?" Mr. Xuan smiled slightly and said: "Besides, it is easier to find medicinal materials than to find source energy."
Lin Yufeng rubbed his temples with a headache, then nodded helplessly, raised his head and asked: "Grandpa Xuan, what's next? What else do you need?"
Xuan Lao controlled the black flame slowly and unhurriedly, making it burn the pottery pot regularly, and then said: "Secondly, even if there are rare medicinal materials, it may not be possible to extract the complete source of the medicine. It may only be 30%.
Maybe only 50%; thirdly, to extract the source of medicine from precious medicinal materials, one more key thing is needed..."
Having said this, Mr. Xuan moved his open palm slightly, and the black flame suddenly shrank, and said: "I want to become a pharmacist!"
"Pharmacist?" Lin Yufeng said in shock.
Pharmacist, one of the three major sub-professional professions in Lingxuan Continent, mainly focuses on alchemy. It can refine a variety of elixirs with different special effects, such as helping to break through realms, recover injuries, change physical constitution, etc. It is a great temptation for many cultivators.
.
Because of the outstanding and special alchemy skills, the status of pharmacists has also increased, and they are prominent and noble. Even the lowest-level pharmacists, in some small sects and small families, have a status second only to the leaders and some core senior officials.
The higher the level of pharmacists, the more popular they are. They are like hot cakes, and they are also talents that all major forces compete for.
Some pharmacists with outstanding achievements or promising prospects, or even monsters with astonishing talents, are in-demand figures no matter which faction they go to.
After all, everyone knows that having a high-level pharmacist is the envy of everyone. As long as you have enough medicinal materials, you can refine a variety of elixirs, which can increase the overall strength of a person or a force.
One level.
All kinds of temptations have caused countless forces to flock to pharmacists and fight for them.
Of course, although pharmacists have both fame and fortune, it is extremely difficult to become a pharmacist. Not only does it require soul power that is different from ordinary people, it also requires a stable state of mind, good understanding, and innate talent for alchemy, etc.
Soul power refers to the power of the soul, which is opposite to the power of the body. The former is an invisible attack, and the latter is a tangible attack. The only difference is that it also needs to be cultivated to a high level before it can have attack effects.
Strong soul power can refine elixirs of better quality and better effects. It is also an important factor in measuring a pharmacist's elixir refining level.
However, the power of the soul is innate just like talent, and few people can use the power of the soul to become stronger.
Lin Yufeng doesn't need to worry about this, because due to his previous life, the power of the soul in this life is quite strong and should reach the level of a pharmacist.
As for his state of mind and understanding, Lin Yufeng is confident that he can meet the requirements, but the last talent for alchemy...
"Grandpa Xuan, I don't seem to have any talent for alchemy?" Lin Yufeng scratched his head and said depressedly.
Mr. Xuan smiled faintly and said, "You don't have to worry about that. When you were a child, you often went to the mountains to collect herbs and were familiar with the properties of various medicinal materials. And through the secret recipe for making soup that I taught you, you had your first glimpse of the secret."
Hearing this, Lin Yufeng was still a little confused: "Does this have anything to do with alchemy?"
"It can be said that there is, or it can be said that there is not." Mr. Xuan said calmly: "Some of these secret recipes are the same as the alchemy method, which is difficult for ordinary people to understand, but you are an exception. In addition, your innate soul power is good, and you have the ability to become
The potential of a pharmacist.”
"Really?" Lin Yufeng was overjoyed when he heard this.
Becoming a pharmacist is something that countless people hope for. Even the lowest level can receive extremely high treatment from some low-level forces. The appeal of higher-level pharmacists is even more exaggerated. They use elixirs to summon many powerful people.
To act as a thug.
If Lin Yufeng can reach that level, there will be a lot of guarantees for the rise of the Lin family in the future.
Seeing that Lin Yufeng was quite happy, Mr. Xuan smiled and then continued: "There is a third and final condition. To refine the source of medicine, in addition to becoming a pharmacist, you must also have something special."
Lin Yufeng was startled and asked in surprise: "What else do you need?"
"It's a special kind of flame." Mr. Xuan said solemnly, "Medicine fire!"
"Powder fire?" Lin Yufeng frowned slightly: "What is gunpowder?"
"I can explain this to you later." Mr. Xuan asked: "You are familiar with ancient books, so you should know the difference between the realms of pharmacists and the difference between alchemy flames?"
Lin Yufeng was slightly startled, his mind turned, and he nodded: "This is quite clear."
Among pharmacists, there are also realms, namely One Yuan, Two Instruments, Three Talents, Four Symbols, Five Elements, Liuhe, Seven Stars, Bagua, and Nine Palaces.
Each realm is also divided into early stage, middle stage, late stage and peak stage.
As far as Lin Yufeng knows, the nine realms of pharmacists have some special differences, which are the alchemy flames used.
There are three types of alchemy flames: spirit fire, pill flame and soul flame.
Medicine masters who reach the realm of one yuan to three talents can condense the fire of spiritual energy-referred to as spiritual fire, which is the alchemy flame formed by using one's own spiritual energy. Its efficacy is determined by the power of the soul, and its power is low.
When the Four Symbols reach the Liuhe realm, the fire element can be extracted from many medicinal materials, and the spiritual fire can evolve into the elixir flame - referred to as the elixir flame. It is of medium power, and the efficacy of elixir refining is much higher than that of the spiritual fire.
When the Seven Stars reach the Nine Palace realm, the soul flame corresponding to the voice can be formed in the body - the soul flame!
It is said that this kind of soul fire is extremely terrifying. Even if the enemy is several levels higher than oneself, it is still capable of fighting. Moreover, the soul fire has unique and huge benefits for alchemy. Its efficacy far exceeds that of spiritual fire and elixir flame. It is used by countless pharmacists.
The stuff of dreams.
Of course, pharmacists who can use soul fire are all famous super figures today, with great power and awesome power.
Moreover, pharmacists who have reached the seven-star realm are all talents who have shown amazing talents at a young age. Such high-level pharmacists are quite rare in the mainland. Many cultivators never see them in their entire lives. Only those on the mainland can
The top power in the world has the status and status to associate with such a person.
"Grandpa Xuan, it seems that there is no record about the gunpowder in the alchemy flames?" Thinking of these things, Lin Yufeng immediately looked at Mr. Xuan and asked curiously: "What is the gunpowder?"
Xuan Lao smiled and did not give in. With an empty hand, he lightly grabbed the void and a yellowing book placed on the cabinet not far away flew into his hand.
