Starting from Scavengers to Cultivate Immortals

Chapter 223 The only choice
The fake alchemy is not a real panacea, and the refining method is completely different from the usual alchemy. It is said to be alchemy, but it is more like refining a weapon.

This reminded Xu Chen of the strange method used by Yuqing Palace to enter the spirit power into the alchemy with formations.

And this method is similar to the refining process of the fake golden elixir.

That is to say, it is not a sudden whim for Yuqing Palace to enter the alchemy with formations. In fact, it also has a long history and tradition, but it seems to be an incredible breakthrough and innovation in other sects.

Xu Chen held the alchemy furnace with both hands, and while running the exercises to refine the energy-gathering pill, he continuously input vitality control formations and spiritual fire into the alchemy furnace, slowly roasted the soul beads, and at the same time released powerful spiritual consciousness to fall on the soul beads Next, try to start carving formation runes on the surface of the soul orb.

But as soon as a few runes were typed in, the soul orb began to vibrate continuously, and clouds of cold black air sprayed out, and then began to lose control. A moment later, a powerful breath of soul power suddenly exploded.

"not good!"

Xu Chen's face trembled, and in an instant a gust of white air poured into the alchemy furnace, and at the same time the furnace lid popped open, and the spiritual fire rushed out of the alchemy furnace wrapped in black and white air, and turned into a cloud of multi-colored rays of light in the stone room in a blink of an eye. The sound of burning and crackling was like a frying pan, and the entire stone chamber was riddled with holes.

It took dozens of breaths of time before the black energy released by this soul orb was completely neutralized by the white energy. At the same time, a large amount of out-of-control soul power was released, and the entire stone room was in a mess, as if it had been blasted by thunder.

Xu Chen sat on the ground disheveled, his face twitched very ugly.

This failure shows that the soul orb is indeed not a demon pill, and the method of refining a fake golden pill cannot succeed at all.

In the mortal world, only monsters above the third rank have demon pills in their bodies, and the main ingredient is the Qi of Yuanling, while the main ingredient of soul beads is soul power, there is no similarity between the two.

Therefore, he no longer needs to experiment with higher-level soul orbs, and the larger the soul orb, the greater the power of the explosion. With his current strength, he is absolutely unable to control a third-order ghost beast's soul orb. It will destroy his only pill furnace, and it is estimated that the old lair of the Wind Clan will be completely destroyed.

So right now there are only two options left, one is the soul orb of the giant octopus that has been transformed by white qi.

However, this bead with a large bowl mouth and white cloud pattern is still a soul bead in essence, and a large amount of ingredients in it are still soul power, so in Xu Chen's opinion, [-]% of it will not succeed.

So for him, there is actually only one choice left at present, and that is the huge pearl obtained from the clam shell.

Xu Chen put all the soul pearls into the black gold bracelet with a roll of vitality, and held up this peerless pearl the size of more than a foot in both hands.

The pearls emitted a glistening white light, reflecting the stone room very clearly.

However, if you look closely, you will find that there is still a faint golden streamer flowing on the surface of the pearl.

If this is a soul bead, then the level of this clam shell has reached at least the fourth rank.

But judging from the light emitted by the pearl and the breath it released, it was not a soul pearl, but full of vitality, with a desolate and long-lasting breath of life.

That old clam didn't know how many years it lived in the underworld, not to mention this pearl, even the clam shell like a fine iron coffin needs thousands of years of growth and accumulation.

Xu Chen turned over and over to observe the huge pearl carefully, examining it for a long time like refining a weapon, and after slowly adjusting his breath to stabilize his mind, he threw the big pearl into the alchemy furnace.

Soon the raging spiritual fire began to burn again, and in the alchemy furnace, the big beads rolled and rotated slightly in the criss-cross formation light and shadow, releasing bright light under the roasting of the spiritual fire.

Although this is the only option, Xu Chenshi is not sure at all.

Because he didn't feel any aura from this big pearl.

As for alchemy in the alchemy furnace, one can only refine the elixir that needs to be refined through the five-element formation and spiritual fire to remove the impurities in it, leaving the pure essence of five-element aura.

Therefore, even if there is a way to refine fake golden elixir, Xu Chen can only experiment with an element that is almost entirely dependent on luck.

If he succeeded, he would still have a chance to recover his cultivation ability, and he would not be trapped here forever.

But if he failed, then he would no longer have any way to recover his dantian, and could only wait here to die.

Even if he can use the combat skills of the divine pattern, but because he does not have the blood of the Wind Clan, his strength will also stagnate, and he will at most display the strength equivalent to the early stage of the Alchemy Realm.

The only thing that reassures him is that even if he fails this time, the existence of the Blue Light Vase allows him to continue refining Xuanshui Youlian to maintain the strengthening and repairing of the body with white qi. Even if there is no dantian, his meridians will grow Time is complete and normal, and there may be other opportunities in the future, but such opportunities are extremely slim, almost nonexistent.

Outside the stone chamber, Feng Feiyi was already dressed and sitting cross-legged at the door.

There was a violent shock and roar in the stone room just now, she turned nervously and glanced at the closed stone door, but she still held back and didn't ask.

Xu Chen often stayed in the stone room for a long time, and often made various large and small vibrations and sounds. Although the vibration was very violent this time, almost the entire cave shook slightly for a few times, but it soon quieted down. , it seems that everything has changed as before.

At this time, while she was concerned about Xu Chen's emotional changes before and after, she was also constantly feeling the changes in herself.

She didn't know why, but she suddenly felt an incomparable sense of reverence and intimacy towards Xu Chen, as if she was secretly in awe of her ancestors. Can't say no.

What also surprised her was that she had already seen a strange blue cross mark on the center of her eyebrows through the power of her soul.

She knew that this was the clan pattern that Xu Chen had activated for her.

It's just that the shape and color of this family crest is different from the clan crests in the legends of all the Netherland tribes, and it's even more incompatible with the Feng Clan, without the slightest similarity.

In other words, she is no longer a real Wind Clan member, but another kind of tribal bloodline.

But which tribe does this family pattern belong to?
Maybe she will only know when Xu Chen comes out.

In addition, she was constantly feeling the aura of the divine pattern, but unfortunately she didn't gain anything from the beginning to the end, as if the divine pattern didn't exist at all.

But no matter what the family pattern is, once the family pattern appears, it means that the ancient blood has been revived. Perhaps as long as you are devout and brave enough, you will eventually feel your own divine pattern combat skills.

Before you know it, time is like the black mist flowing in this dark world, and no one knows how long it has passed.

People from the Feng Clan came and went to inquire outside the stone chamber, and the five tribes who came were also waiting anxiously.

Feng Feiyi kept getting up outside the stone room, leaving to eat and drink, and then came back to guard.

The heavy stone gate was like a seal, without any movement.

In the stone room, Xu Chen sat in front of the flaming alchemy furnace, with his eyes closed and his hands clasped, as if the stone sculpture hadn't shaken for a long time.

Five empty jade bottles containing elixirs rolled down on the ground.

After losing the vitality stored in his dantian, in order to refine this fake golden elixir, he had to rely on constantly knocking on the elixir to maintain the alchemy process.

Five jade bottles are at least fifty Qi Gathering Pills.

If one were to be called an ordinary True Yuan Realm powerhouse, it would be impossible to prepare so many Qi-invigorating spirit pills on one's body.

But Xu Chen, as the only alchemist of the Taiyuan Sect, not only knew how to do alchemy, but also robbed some in the Yuqing Palace, all of which were stored in the storage bracelet, plus there were a lot of elixir. The bottle was only a third of his reserves.

Even so, Xu Chen's heart bleeds with distress, but he has no choice but to grit his teeth and keep going.

Compared to the consumption of spirit pills, the fake golden pill being refined in the pill furnace is his greatest hope.

Fortunately, in his opinion, from the beginning to now, the refining has been smooth sailing.

He has continuously injected hundreds of runes and formations into the pearls, completing two layers of imprisonment formations.

Right now, the big pearl seems to be a little smaller, and the light and aura have also changed. On the surface, the consciousness can clearly see the dense criss-crossing lines and the flashing lights and shadows of colorful runes. In addition, the surface of the pearl itself has a layer of flowing pale gold. The light made the whole pearl look like an incomparably exquisite magic weapon, suspended in the pill furnace and shining brightly.

In fact, up to now, Xu Chen has been roughly convinced that this pearl should be the inner alchemy of the big clam shell.

However, clam shells are genuine ghost beasts, not monsters from the mortal world. Even if a fake golden pill is successfully refined, it is still unknown whether it can be used.

Although Xu Chen was stable on the surface, and even felt more and more joyful in the process of refining the fake golden elixir, but in fact he was still nervous in his heart.

After all, if he fails this time, his hope will become even slimmer.

Moreover, he consumed too much Qi Gathering Pill this time, and at least half of his reserve would be consumed by the time the refining was completed. If there was no effect, all consumption would be considered a waste.
