When I take my cultivation to the extreme

Chapter 106 The ancient elixir recipe 'Qu Shen Dan'!second refuge

Li Fan was watching all this with interest from a distance.

What Yin Zhang was worried about was a bottle of nourishing pills, but he knew there were still a few pills in it.

Disciples in the Wandao Sect generally consume a lot of mental energy or spiritual consciousness, and elixirs such as the Nourishing Pill are hard currency in the sect.

When Ma Yudong saw this, he immediately hesitated.

"Is he an inner disciple who is close to Senior Brother Qi?" Ma Yudong repeated.

Qi Weigong, the eldest disciple of the fourth elder of Wandao Sect Tianyun Peak, his strength is in the late stage of foundation building and is infinitely close to the formation of pills. He is also Ma Yudong's eldest brother.

Ma Yudong himself has been following Qi Weigong, and logically speaking, Yin Zhangxin can be considered one of them.

There is an open secret in Wandao Sect, that is, the direct disciples will form their own relationship networks and have various interpersonal connections. If these direct disciples achieve the golden elixir in the future, have the strength to aspire to be the leader, or become an elder, these are the following The disciples or friends you make are the network of people who truly control the power within the sect.

Ma Yudong is naturally not afraid of Yin Zhangxin, but he doesn't want to offend Qi Weigong at all.

What just happened seemed to be a fight within the door, but it did not produce any consequences. Ma Yudong thought for a while and felt that it was better to handle the matter this way.

He coughed and took Yin Zhangxin's spirit-restoring pill without leaving any trace.

He weighed it with his hand and found that there were still five pills in the medicine bottle.

Ma Yudong took advantage of the situation and put it into his sleeves, and his tone was much gentler.

"He's an acquaintance of Senior Brother Qi, so for the sake of Senior Brother's face, I'll be more generous."

"You guys should be careful when we discuss. Don't make random moves in the sect. What if someone misunderstands you?"

"Also, is that Leng Yueyun over there? What did she say? Do you have any other opinions?"

Ma Yudong asked.

Yin Zhangxin looked back at Leng Yueyun.

Leng Yueyun was the woman who looked arrogant and cool. When she heard Yin Zhangxin looked over, she frowned.

When Yin Zhangxin delivered the elixir, he blocked it with his body. Leng Yueyun didn't see it clearly, but he probably guessed that it was almost the same.

"Junior Sister Leng, were we just sparring, please tell me something!"

"If Senior Brother Ma misunderstands that we are fighting, then everyone will record it in the evaluation. Fortunately for us, we still have some good deeds that can be punished, but Junior Sister Leng, I am afraid that you will have big problems in the daily evaluation. The good deeds are not enough, and it might endanger your survival in the sect."

"Do you think so?" Yin Zhangxin shouted to Leng Yueyun with some yin and yang in his heart.

Leng Yueyun frowned even more tightly.

It was three against one just now. It was obvious that Yin Zhangxin had greater responsibility, but Leng Yueyun was obviously the one who could not bear the consequences.

If Leng Yueyun testifies that there was a fight just now, then she will be the one who suffers the most.

"Yes, we are discussing." Leng Yueyun finally had to say this.

Yin Zhang nodded with satisfaction and looked back at Ma Yudong.

When Ma Yudong saw that the last person here had agreed with him, he nodded slightly and said, "Okay then, you will pass this time."

"Don't let me catch you next time."

"Naturally, naturally, we must choose a suitable place for future discussions." Yin Zhangxin seemed like an old man in the sect, he was very slippery, and he immediately settled the matter.

He turned back to look at Leng Yueyun, with a hint of contempt and threat in his tone, and said: "Junior sister Leng, in the future, senior brother will find a better place to 'discuss' with you."

Leng Yueyun kept a cold face, but his brows furrowed even more tightly.

Li Fan saw all this.

He probably saw some clues.

That Leng Yueyun, for some unknown reason, was being bullied by the three men led by Yin Zhangxin, and was still suffering unspeakably.

Yin Zhangxin is obviously a very naughty inner disciple in the sect. He is very experienced in connections and can make use of the sect rules.

As for Ma Yudong...

It can only be said that human nature is sophisticated, but there is nothing wrong with others doing this. Ma Yudong is a direct disciple of the Department of Discipline, so doing this is a bit unfair and his shadow is slanted.

Li Fan grasped the relationship between these people, and at this time, there were some changes there.

After Ma Yudong dealt with the matter and got half a bottle of nourishing pill, he glanced at the people present and said, "Yin Zhangxin, you leave first."

"I have something to say to this Leng Yueyun."

Yin Zhang was stunned for a moment, but recovered immediately.

"Okay, senior brother, just talk, we'll leave right away."

Yin Zhangxin said hello, and left with two other inner disciples, a man and a woman, wielding their swords.

The only people present were Ma Yudong and Leng Yueyun.

Not far away, although his figure was not covered, Li Fan was under the breath-condensing technique and no one noticed him.

When Li Fan saw this, a playful look appeared on his lips.

Is there any follow-up to this matter?

He wanted to see what medicine Ma Yudong was selling in his gourd.

Ma Yudong looked at Leng Yueyun, changed his expression, and tried to make his face as relaxed as possible.

Ma Yudong looked at Leng Yueyun and said, "I have met you several times, inner disciple Leng Yueyun, right? You have violated the sect rules before and received a minor demerit in the Discipline Department."

"You are really careless."

Leng Yueyun's face was expressionless and he said with indifference in his tone: "Senior brother, please worry about it."

Ma Yudong said: "Haha, I know a little bit about you. You were originally the most promising descendant of the Immortal Cultivator family. Unfortunately, when you were practicing here at Wandao Sect, the city where your family was located was replaced by other family forces, and you lost it. power, and it’s very difficult to influence you here at Wandao Sect.”

"Moreover, you don't have any direct disciples attached to you, and it's even more difficult for you to move forward among the Ten Thousand Dao Sect. Am I right?"

Leng Yueyun said nothing, but nodded slowly.

Ma Yudong nodded slightly and said, "Junior sister Leng, you also know the situation within the sect. The competition is very cruel."

"And in two and a half years, during the sect competition, in your case, it is very likely that you will be persuaded to withdraw from the sect."

"Aren't you afraid?"

"Senior brother, what's your advice?" Leng Yueyun asked, still looking cold.

"Haha." Ma Yudong's voice suddenly became kinder, and he also changed his body posture so that he could see that his fat body and face were in a position that he thought looked more handsome in the angle of the sun.

He took a step forward, tried to control his voice to be gentle, and looked at Leng Yueyun.

"Senior brother, I am actually planning to find a dual cultivator to study the immortal way together."

"Junior sister, although your background is not very good, you are still a good person."

"Why don't you promise me to be my double monk? If you agree, senior brother, I will definitely not look down on you, but will help you."

"In this way, you will be able to enter the personal network of direct disciples here at Tianyun Peak, and you will not be bullied by Yin Zhangxin and others on weekdays. Senior brother, I will take good care of you."

"how do you feel?"

Ma Yudong said as softly as possible.

It's just that the voice sounded like it was talking with something in it.

Li Fan, who had been watching things here from a distance, looked a little stunned.

"Can it still be like this?" Li Fan felt that his eyes were burning as he listened and watched.

Li Fan originally thought that Ma Yudong was dissatisfied with Li Fan just because of his relationship with the elders in the sect. This man just had some narrow-mindedness.

But I didn't expect that this person could do such a thing!

what is this?
Powerful traitor?
Li Fan had read about this in books, but this was the first time he had seen it in real life.

For a moment, Li Fan's eyes looked at Ma Yudong, and something seemed wrong.

Have all the disciples of the Discipline Department fallen to this level?

Hearing this, Leng Yueyun also looked at Ma Yudong with a look of astonishment on his face.

After carefully looking at Ma Yudong in the sunlight, Leng Yueyun suddenly showed an uncontrollable look of disgust on his face.

Ma Yudong was startled when he saw this, and then became furious.

"What do you mean by that look on your face?" Leng Yueyun's reaction made Ma Yudong feel as if he had touched a painful point in his heart. He couldn't hold back his voice. It sounded harsh and sharp, and he pointed at Leng Yueyun with his finger and asked.

Leng Yueyun finally managed to control the expression on his face.

"Senior brother, what on earth did I, Leng Yueyun, do to make you despise and insult me ​​so much?"

"If I, Leng Yueyun, were willing to put down my dignity, do you think I would be reduced to where I am today?"

"It's better not to mention this matter."

Leng Yueyun regained his cold expression and said to Ma Yudong.

"You!" Ma Yudong's face turned red, and his overly pale and fat face turned the color of pig liver. In anger, he even unsheathed the flying sword he was wearing.

At this time, Li Fan, who had been watching this scene, shook his head repeatedly.

Ma Yudong is obviously a bit narrow-minded. If he gets impulsive, don't kill Leng Yueyun here.

After all, this is the realm of Tianxiao Peak.

And Li Fan really couldn't stand it.

Li Fan shook his head slightly.

"Forget it, just think of it as doing one good deed every day."

He took a step forward and at the same time canceled the breath-holding technique.

Li Fan calmly walked out of the forest near the lake.

As he walked, he clapped his hands.

"Not bad, not bad, really good."

"A direct disciple of the Tianyun Peak Discipline Department in the foundation building period actually used his power to threaten the inner sect's Qi Refining disciples. He wanted to find a Taoist companion to use such despicable methods. When he failed, he became so angry that he threatened him with a flying sword. It’s really a good move.”

"I wonder how many of the sect's precepts this violated, and whether it counts as knowing the law and breaking the law. Should the crime be increased to one level?" Li Fan clapped softly and walked out.

Ma Yudong's expression suddenly changed, and his face was full of surprise and horror.

"you?"

"Le Fan?"

"Why are you here? When did you come? Why didn't I see you?"

Ma Yudong blurted out.

Li Fan smiled lightly and said: "This is the mountain behind Tianxiao Peak. As a direct disciple of Tianxiao Peak, it makes sense for me to appear here, right?"

"I've always been here. It's normal that you were too focused on your courtship and didn't see me."

"It's Ma Yudong, Senior Brother Ma..."

"You accepted bribes and threatened the inner disciples to form Taoist partners. What's the matter? Do you want to give an explanation?" Ma Yudong's face suddenly turned ugly.

His expression ranged from humiliation, to resentment, to even a hint of ferocity in his eyes.

Li Fan kept looking at Ma Yudong and caught the ferocity in his eyes.

Li Fan snorted in his heart.

Is this Ma Yudong murderous?

In anger, you want to kill someone and silence them?
Li Fan did not suppress his own strength, and the fluctuations in his spiritual power were fully displayed.

Ma Yudong, who was angry, had already started to prepare his sword.

But when Li Fan revealed his realm, the expression on Ma Yudong's face changed from anger to shock.

"The middle stage of foundation building?"

"how is this possible?"

"When you started, you were clearly in the early stage of foundation building! How could you possibly be in the middle stage of foundation building in less than four years?"

Ma Yudong blurted out.

Li Fan looked calm and looked at Ma Yudong.

"What, Senior Brother Ma, are you not going to kill anyone and silence him?" Li Fan said.

Ma Yudong was frightened by Li Fan's realm and the speed of his improvement. At this time, he was called out to the dark thoughts in his heart, and he suddenly lost his confidence.

The murderous intention in his heart quickly dissipated.

Ma Yudong's shameful and angry mood quickly subsided, and care and consideration returned to his mind.

Ma Yudong's eyes kept moving rapidly, and he finally judged that he might not be able to beat him, and if the trouble continued, he would definitely be the one to suffer.

The flying sword flying out from Ma Yudong's side was sheathed again.

He snorted coldly and said:
"Humph, I just happened to pass by and have a heart-to-heart talk with Junior Sister Leng. There is no coercion. Don't slander my innocence."

"This is not what you think, it's because you think too much."

"Also, Leng Yueyun, nothing happened just now, right? If something happened, there would be a lot to trace back."

Ma Yudong said.

Hearing this, Leng Yueyun frowned immediately.

Li Fan also glanced at Leng Yueyun.

Leng Yueyun also looked at Li Fan.

After a moment, she looked helpless and said to Li Fan: "You are Senior Brother Li from Tianxiao Peak. I have seen you several times from a distance. I have always heard the inner disciples mention you, saying that you are always fair and diligent. He is a role model among our inner disciples."

"Senior Brother Li, please speak out more generously today."

"It's just that I do have difficulties. I can't get to the bottom of what happened today. Please forgive me, senior brother."

Li Fan heard this and nodded.

He didn't think that what happened just now could nail Ma Yudong to the rules.

Li Fan just couldn't stand it anymore.

Moreover, the incident happened in the back mountain of Tianxiao Peak. As a direct disciple of Tianxiao Peak, he had to take care of it no matter what.

At this time, Leng Yueyun, the sufferer, didn't want to pursue the matter, and Li Fan wasn't prepared to go deep into the matter.

But it's not for nothing.

When Ma Yudong meets Li Fan in the sect in the future, knowing what happened today, he will be a head shorter no matter what.

Ma Yudong felt that he had lost all face and did not want to stay in front of Li Fan. He finally said two harsh words, but he did not dare to target Li Fan.

Ma Yudong said: "Humph, that's all for today. Leng Yueyun, keep your mouth shut. Don't let me know that you are slandering my innocence in the future."

"You have to figure out the pros and cons of things yourself!"

After saying that, Ma Yudong didn't dare to look at Li Fan, and he flew away with his sword and seemed to be leaving.

Seeing Ma Yudong leaving, Leng Yueyun finally couldn't help it and took a long breath.

Li Fan looked at Leng Yueyun and said: "I don't know your specific situation, but in practicing in Wandao Sect, connections are also a very important part. If you are always excluded by others, you will not be able to go far. "

"Thank you, senior brother, for the tip." Leng Yueyun said.

Leng Yueyun usually had a somewhat arrogant expression, probably due to her temperament, but at this time, there was indeed a hint of gratitude in her expression.

After thinking for a while, Leng Yueyun said: "Senior Brother Li, although I, Leng Yueyun, am a little embarrassed now, I am a person who clearly keeps all my grudges in my heart."

"I don't express my gratitude in vain, it seems that I am not sincere."

"I heard that you are good at refining alchemy, senior brother. I happen to have something that I don't have any use for. It may be of some help to senior brother, so I can repay his kindness."

With that said, Leng Yueyun took out a piece of leather paper from the storage bag, walked over and handed it to Li Fan with both hands.

Li Fan was a little curious, so he took it and took a look, with a slightly surprised look on his face.

It’s an ancient elixir recipe!

And it’s not just any ordinary ancient elixir recipe.

The elixir recorded on the leather paper is a kind of elixir called 'Qu Shen Dan', which is a medicine that can be used in the foundation building period. Its function is to enhance spiritual consciousness.

Its effect, judging from the description on the pill recipe, is much weaker than the 'Shenhua Pill' listed in the top three rewards of the sect that Li Fan knew.

However, this 'Qushen Pill' is not like the Shenhua Pill, which can only be taken once, but can be taken multiple times. Although the potency of the medicine will weaken later, according to the pill prescription, the average monk must take at least thirty pills. It won't be completely useless until fifty pills. Every time you take it before, you can increase the power of your consciousness a little bit.

Li Fan was very surprised to see this pill recipe.

There are no pills for increasing spiritual consciousness, but they are relatively few.

Shenhua Pill is currently a relatively mainstream pill for increasing spiritual consciousness, but it is of high grade and expensive, and ordinary monks cannot afford it.

Spiritual consciousness is also very important to monks.

If spiritual power corresponds to the foundation and driving force of Taoism, then spiritual consciousness corresponds to the monk's ability to control Taoism and magical weapons.

The stronger your spiritual consciousness is, the more profound and complex Taoist practices you can practice, and you can also control more magic weapons.

For example, Li Fan, one of his advantages among the foundation-building monks is that his spiritual consciousness is particularly powerful.

Therefore, he dared to buy the Qijue Sword on Lingcha Island as his own magical weapon when he had just entered the foundation building stage.

Li Fan bought the Qijue Sword, which was extremely valuable, so he missed it.

It's not that other monks don't know that the Qijue Sword is good, and the price is not expensive compared to its effects. It can even be said that it is relatively cheap.

But even if they knew it, they wouldn't buy it if they wanted it.

Mainly, it is a matter of spiritual consciousness.

Even if the Qijue Sword is a set of flying swords, the seven-mouthed main sword that controls it still needs to occupy the attention of the seven divine consciousnesses.

A monk with weak spiritual consciousness cannot operate this set of flying swords at all.

As for the monks with strong spiritual consciousness in the foundation-building stage, they just happen to control this set of flying swords, and there is not much free space for their spiritual consciousness.

What makes Li Fan better than others is that his spiritual consciousness is particularly powerful.

Therefore, he can control the Qijue Sword without any obstacles, perform sword formations, and even have room to release extremely complex but powerful Taoist techniques such as the Fire Phoenix Burning Heaven Technique.

Li Fan can do all this, but others can't. The difference is not necessarily in spiritual power and realm, but in spiritual consciousness.

It is also very difficult for monks to increase their spiritual consciousness. There is a certain gap in talent in this regard. A high level does not necessarily mean that their spiritual consciousness is higher than others. Moreover, spiritual consciousness can hardly be cultivated deliberately and can only be enhanced with some pills. And this kind of The enhancement is still proportional to the monk's original spiritual consciousness.

At present, Li Fan only knows about one or two kinds of elixirs that can enhance the spiritual awareness of monks, and he only knows that there is no elixir recipe.

Pills like Shenhua Pill are the only option to expand a monk's spiritual consciousness.

Therefore, it is understandable that Li Fan was surprised when he saw Leng Yueyun take out an ancient elixir recipe for the 'Qu Shen Dan'.

If this recipe is real, there will probably be a lot of people competing for it, right?
And the value is definitely not low.

Such an ancient elixir recipe, compared to Leng Yueyun's status, is almost a treasure, so was it given out like this?

Also, Leng Yueyun never thought about using this pill formula in exchange for good deeds to improve his situation in the sect?

Li Fan had these questions in his mind and looked at Leng Yueyun.

"You are in a bad situation in the sect, so you have never thought of selling the elixir?" Li Fan asked.

Leng Yueyun smiled bitterly.

"I thought about it, but it didn't work out," she said.

Leng Yueyun continued: "This is an ancient alchemy recipe. The authenticity of the ancient alchemy recipes handed down are mixed. I have no evidence to prove that this elixir recipe must be true. I am not an alchemist in the first place. I don't have this talent or this. eyesight."

"Moreover, this is a prescription written on leather paper, not a prescription in a jade slip. There is no refining process and corresponding detailed experience. If an alchemist receives this prescription, it will require a lot of time, energy and investment. Buy spiritual stones and elixirs, and try and make mistakes again and again.”

"Most of the alchemists in the sect are very conservative. They would rather get a certain profit than try such a risky pill recipe."

"Also, occasionally one or two alchemists are interested and push the price extremely low... I can't help but feel angry. The price is like sending away a beggar."

"This elixir comes from the inheritance of my family. I don't want to sell it at a low price, so I will keep it in my hands."

Li Fan nodded slightly when he heard this.

Yes, Li Fan suddenly thought that his alchemy strength had widened the gap between that of ordinary alchemists, and his horizons also improved.

Moreover, Li Fan has come into contact with many ancient elixir prescriptions. He knows the truth from the lies and has good eyesight.
Among Li Fan's skills is the appraisal skill, which gives him an extraordinary intuition.

When he saw Leng Yueyun's prescription, he intuitively felt that it was true.

But ordinary alchemists really don’t have this kind of vision... In fact, there are only a few alchemists who can see real ancient alchemy recipes.

Moreover, Li Fan is also different from other alchemists in terms of his alchemy ability.

His elixir success rate was too high, so he subconsciously thought that Leng Yueyun's ancient elixir recipe was so valuable, why not exchange his good deeds with other alchemists?

But think about it, it is indeed the case. Firstly, other alchemists do not have the eyesight to identify. Secondly, even if it is true, they want to refine the finished product through the elixir recipe recorded on the paper instead of the detailed inheritance in the jade slip. To get the elixir, it would take at least [-] to [-] good deeds and more than ten years of trial and error.

Other alchemists really have no motivation to buy this elixir.

But Li Fan is different. His abilities and skills make him think from a completely different perspective than other alchemists.

What other alchemists think is risky and extremely difficult is not a problem for Li Fan.

After Li Fan thought about this, he nodded slightly.

Leng Yueyun said this, suddenly raised his head, looked at Li Fan with bright eyes, and said: "Senior Brother Li is a well-known and talented alchemist in the sect. I will give you the elixir. I think you have the ability to judge the authenticity, and maybe There is still the ability to refine it.”

"I don't expect too much, I just want to have a good relationship with Senior Brother Li."

"If the elixir is really effective, in addition to repaying Senior Brother Li, I have another request, and Senior Brother Neng agrees."

"What are you asking for?" Li Fan asked.

Leng Yueyun took a deep breath, as if to muster up courage, and said, "I hope to take refuge under my senior brother!"
