Longevity begins with alchemy

Chapter 34 Water and fire help each other
At ten o'clock in the evening, Su Yi rarely had dinner with his second daughter and two children.

Shao Juan cooked a large table of delicious food, and the two children enjoyed it.

After the spirit gathering array is installed in the courtyard, everyone will benefit. In addition, Su Yi has distributed corresponding elixirs to them, so it can be expected that everyone's cultivation will be accelerated to a certain extent in the future.

Shao Juan, who originally wanted to teach her son with peace of mind and put down her personal practice, picked up her practice again because she was not very busy at work, and was even more grateful to Su Yi.

During the dinner, Su Yi told the two girls that he would be in seclusion for a period of time. It should not be long, probably a few months or up to a year.

During this period of time, he will focus on practice. During this period, his two children will follow Su Lihua to copy medicinal herbs, learn writing and basic martial arts. With Su Lihua as his "aunt", Su Yi is temporarily a hands-off shopkeeper.

Shao Juan added one more item to her original job, handing over one hundred spirit stones to the law enforcement team every month, and adding fifty top-grade Qi Pills and fifty top-grade Qi Pills to "the money handed over by Boss Hu" every month. Rejuvenation Pill...

After the meal, Su Yi returned to the backyard and began a small retreat. Of course, it was not a formal retreat. The main reason was that he would not see outsiders and would not allow his two children to observe him making alchemy for the time being.

The two children are not yet familiar with the raw materials and the properties of the medicine. They were allowed to observe alchemy several times before, mainly to arouse their interest in alchemy.

After returning to the room, Su Yi did not immediately start practicing the "Tian Yan Dao Jing", but sat quietly to calm his mind.

Cultivation is not achieved overnight. Even if he is anxious that the vortex in his body cannot be solidified, he cannot express his emotions too much. Otherwise, once external evil enters the body and becomes obsessed, it is not a trivial matter. Su Yi still understands this simple truth.

At nightfall, Su Yi began to run "Tianyan Dao Jing"

With the movement of the technique, the pores on his body began to open and close rhythmically. Strands of spiritual energy penetrated into Su Yi's body like a swimming fish, merged into the sea of ​​​​qi along the meridians, and started from the sea of ​​​​qi. Circulation in the body is improved.

Some time ago, due to the availability of the best Qi Transformation Pill and the low level of Immortality Skill, Su Yi gave up absorbing spiritual energy from the outside world and relied solely on refining the pill to increase the mana in his body.

This was very effective at the late stage of the third level of Qi training, but after entering the fourth level of Qi training, the problem of the cyclone not being able to solidify arose.

In this regard, Su Yi had a guess after careful consideration, whether the power of the elixir alone could not improve his cultivation!
Su Yi had no one to guide him and could not get the answer directly, so he could only infer the answer.

If the power of the elixir is uncontrollable, then those who control the sect or the big family don't need to select the disciples.

As long as you select the descendants of your trusted followers or the disciples you like, and then give them a large amount of miraculous elixirs, you can create high-level monks in batches.

After all, although taking pills every day is unaffordable for ordinary monks, it is not a problem for sects or big families.

They have countless spiritual materials and high-level alchemists. It is not easy to use pills to pile up a few high-level disciples.

Since the sect or big family does not adopt the above method, but pays more attention to the personal qualifications of its disciples, it means that the above method is not feasible.

The most likely possibility is that simply taking pills cannot improve your cultivation, so you have to give up shortcuts and take the conventional route.

On the other hand, since there is such a thing as "the rules of heaven" in this world, it is conceivable that the rules of heaven absolutely do not allow unlimited upgrades by taking elixirs, otherwise there will be "medicine men" who will crush the immortals and even the gods. An overwhelming situation.

Because of the above ideas, Su Yi decided to buy the spirit gathering array to increase the concentration of spiritual energy in the courtyard, and then verify the above ideas.

If he can complete the condensation of the cyclone in his body by absorbing spiritual energy from the outside world, it means that his idea is right, and the crux of the problem lies in "eating pills".

After arranging the spirit gathering circle, he can get the experimental results faster. If his above guess is wrong, he can find other solutions as soon as possible.

Strands of spiritual energy gathered in Su Yi's body, entered the water and fine sand, and accumulated silently.

This is a slow process. Of course, Su Yi is not so anxious to see the effect. He can still afford to spend this time.

In this way, in the following time, apart from taking a certain amount of time to refine the elixir, Su Yi spent the rest of the time practicing the "Tian Yan Dao Jing". In fact, Su Yi's speculation was correct.

Spiritual energy is to monks what soil is to crops, and elixirs are to fertilizer.

During the growth process of crops, fertilization can increase the growth to a limited extent, making the crops grow quickly and robustly.

But no matter what, the roots of crops must still take root in the earth and the soil.

If only fertilizer is applied, it will cause "nutritional monotony", and the crops will wither and eventually die.

Compared with monks, the mana in the body will gradually decrease instead of increasing, and the cultivation level will slowly fall back, and the rate of decline will be faster than that of monks who give up practice.

The reason for this is that if we compare it to crops, it is equivalent to "burning seedlings".

Su Yi's experiment was successful. One month later, the outline of the cyclone in his body became clear again. Three months later, the mana in his body began to increase again, achieving positive growth.

Half a year later, Su Yi was convinced that his previous speculation was completely correct, but this was not the entire purpose of his experiment.

What he wants is not only to be able to continue practicing, but how to practice quickly and steadily. The answer naturally lies in "eating pills".

It is impossible for Su Yi to give up "eating pills". This is where his golden finger lies, and he naturally has to use his full power.

If you only use alchemy as a means of accumulating wealth, it is obvious that the full potential of Golden Finger has not been used.

Su Yi believes that taking pills for cultivation still has a huge effect, the key lies in the ratio.

In this way, Su Yi started the next experiment with the above questions.

One of the experiments is the ratio of spiritual energy absorbed from the outside world to the mana transformed by taking pills.

The second experiment is to mix a variety of elixirs to see if it has any effect on the above ratio.

For this reason, in addition to the best Qi Transformation Pill, Su Yi also successively refined the best He Qi Pill, the best Qi Gathering Pill and other several other pills that monks can take during the Qi Refining Period.

To say that Su Yi was cruel enough to him and used himself as an experiment, the fearlessness of the ignorant is certainly part of the reason.

The more important reason is that Su Yi knows that if he can't practice "taking pills", then it may be difficult to have a chance to build a foundation.

If you can't build a foundation, then what's the point of becoming an immortal and seeking immortality?

Fortunately, Su Yi's adventure paid off, and in the end Su Yi got a dosage ratio that was more suitable for him.

Su Yi, who is proud of himself alone, calls this ratio the method of "combining fire and water".

The external spiritual energy is mild, like water, while the spiritual power contained in the elixir is relatively intense, like fire.

Taking the elixir according to this ratio can achieve the harmony of yin and yang, water and fire, and achieve the purpose of quickly improving your cultivation level.

Of course, this "fast" is compared to the body's own cultivation speed, not compared to the geniuses of the great sects.

But no matter what, Su Yi has firm confidence in practice again!
