The Longevity Martial Arts Path: Starting with the Five Elements of Health

"How to test?"

Su Changkong asked rhetorically, he naturally knew that the giant whale gang absorbed the alchemist, and it was impossible to find him and drag him in.

Cui He took off the package on his back: "Just use alchemy to test, I have a prescription for Qi-enhancing dan, and ten medicinal materials, you can use these medicinal materials to refine them into dans, according to the number of dans in the end. judged by quality.”

The test of an alchemist is naturally alchemy!

"Can."

Su Changkong replied succinctly without much hesitation.

This test is good for him, even if it is unsuccessful, at least he can get a prescription for Qi-enhancing Pill for free!

Cui He took out a prescription and handed it to Su Changkong, who took it over and checked it carefully.

"Qi-enhancing pill has a great auxiliary effect on the martial artist's cultivation of internal skills. It increases infuriating qi and achieves twice the result with half the effort. The difficulty of refining is higher than that of living qi pill...but not as good as blood-qi pill!"

Su Changkong memorized the medicinal materials on the prescription, the method of processing, and the refining steps by heart.

Cui He has already prepared ten of the medicinal materials for refining Qi-enhancing Pills. Su Changkong only needs to start refining pills to make all ten Qi-enhancing Pills into pills!

"Healthy flowers and red jade beans are mixed and boiled for an hour, and the jade Poria is ground into powder..."

After memorizing the pill recipes, Su Changkong went straight to alchemy and began to process various medicinal materials.

Cui He did not disturb Su Changkong so as not to distract him, but stayed in the manor and quietly waited for the results of Su Changkong's alchemy.

"This young master Su also seems to practice martial arts on weekdays, right?"

Cui He found that in the manor, there were some stone piers weighing one or two hundred kilograms, which were used for martial artists to test their strength and exercise their arm strength, he thought to himself.

Su Changkong was strong and fit, and he also had the masculinity of a martial artist.

Cui He felt that Su Changkong should also be a martial artist.

But it's not surprising. Cui He heard Su Changkong say that he was born in Woniu Village, thousands of miles away, and has traveled abroad for several years. roam.

"Failed……"

A few hours later, in the alchemy room, a burnt smell came out. Not surprisingly, the first batch of Qi-enhancing Pill refining failed!

"The timing of adding Poria cocos is not right."

However, Su Changkong was mentally prepared. He recalled the entire process of alchemy in his mind, and wrote down all the deficiencies and mistakes in it.

After doing all this, Su Changkong opened the furnace to refine the second furnace of Qi-enhancing Pill.

It is still a failure, the third furnace, the fourth furnace...

Although he failed continuously, Su Changkong became proficient in refining Qi Zeng Dan.

Finally, in the fifth furnace, there is a faint medicinal fragrance wafting out!

"Success!"

Su Changkong was overjoyed, he opened the pill furnace, and in the pill furnace, there was an elixir with a medicinal fragrance. Although only the first one was refined, there is a precedent for this, which proves that he is in the right direction. As long as you are skilled and improve your shortcomings, you can make the success rate higher and higher!

Sure enough, the next five materials still failed, but two of them were also successful.

Three days later, Su Changkong looked at the bottle of 7 pills in his hand, and he let out a sigh of relief: "It's finally over..."

Ten materials, only 7 Qi-enhancing pills were made. This is definitely a loss, but Su Changkong believes that with the improvement of his alchemy skills, the success rate will definitely increase!

"This young master Su is at least a martial artist in the inner strength realm... He is energetic, and he has opened the furnace ten times in three days. This aspect is definitely up to the standard."

For three days, Cui Hedu lived in the manor, and he nodded secretly.

The Giant Whale Gang recruits alchemists, and they value age very much. Young means potential and energetic. Even if some old alchemists are skilled in alchemy, they can't afford the heavy workload of alchemy. Cultivation is difficult to close your eyes for several days, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford.

"Young Master Su, I will take this bottle of Qi-enhancing Pill first and give it to an experienced person in the gang for testing, and I will give you an answer within three days."

Cui He took the bottle of seven Qi-enhancing pills from Su Changkong and said to Su Changkong.

To test whether Su Changkong's performance meets the standards of the Giant Whale Gang, professionals in this area are needed. Cui He needs to bring these medicinal pills back to the Giant Whale Gang.

"Okay, Mr. Cui, walk slowly."

Su Changkong nodded and sent Cui He to the door.

"The next step is to wait for news from Cui He."

Su Changkong was not as nervous as he imagined, and he still practiced martial arts as usual.

For Su Changkong, being able to join the Giant Whale Gang as an alchemist was a good opportunity, but even if he failed the test, it would just take a little more time!

The helm of the Giant Whale Gang is located near the Blue Rain Sea.

Inside the Giant Whale Gang, there are many buildings, and the disciples of the Giant Whale Gang who wear uniforms and blue stripes on a black background come and go.

As one of the largest gangs in Molin Mansion, the strength and heritage of the Giant Whale Gang are beyond doubt, and there are also strong players in the gang!

"Master Cui."

In the evening, Cui He returned to the Giant Whale Gang, and the disciples of the Giant Whale Gang greeted him respectfully along the way, and Cui He also nodded in response.

All the way to the giant whale gang, a separate and quiet place, there are flowers and grasses, and a lot of herbs are planted. There is a medicine cottage in the center, surrounded by water, and the environment is beautiful.

Cui He came all the way to the outside of the medicine house, and gently knocked the door knocker.

"Come in." An old voice sounded in the room.

Only then did Cui He push the door open. An old man in the house was sitting on a reclining chair to enjoy the shade. The old man had a beard and kind eyes. He looked old, but his body was tough.

"Is it Cui He? Have you found a good candidate again?"

The old man had a smile on his face.

The old man is Gong Zheng, an alchemist trained by the Giant Whale Gang. During this time, he is preparing to retire due to his age and health. As a condition, he needs to help the Giant Whale Gang bring out a new alchemist to take his class.

Cui He nodded, took out the bottle of Qi-enhancing pill, handed it to Gong Zheng, and said respectfully: "Master Gong, this is the pill that a young alchemist concocted a few days ago, please take a look. "

The Giant Whale Gang didn't just find one Su Changkong. Before Su Changkong, they also tested two idle alchemists, but Gong Zheng's vision was very high, and the finished products of those two alchemists were criticized by Gong Zheng as mediocre. , don't think they can pick up their own class.

Gong Zheng took the bottle of Qi Zeng Dan, poured them all out, and observed them carefully.

"These seven Qi-enhancing pills are made in three furnaces, and the success rate is very average."

Gong Zheng's eyes are very vicious, and he can even see that these Qi-enhancing pills were not born in the same furnace.

"Huh?" But soon, Gong Zheng made a startled noise.

"What's wrong?" Cui He asked quickly.

Gong Zheng looked at the seven Qi-enhancing pills with bright eyes: "These seven Qi-enhancing pills are made in three furnaces, and the quality can only be regarded as average... but we can see very obvious progress! Almost every furnace is a pill. There has been a lot of progress in medicine!"

"Is it qualified?" Cui He said with joy in his heart.

Hurry up and implement this matter, and he can be less busy!

Gong Zheng pondered: "I heard you say that he is a very young boy? He should have no guidance, but his talent in alchemy... I am afraid that he is not under the old man's. With a little guidance, he should be able to achieve something very quickly! Let him come to the giant whale gang... let him follow me to practice pills for a while, and then watch his progress."

"it is good!"

Cui He nodded again and again, Gong Zheng completely disliked the finished products of the two previous alchemists.

The Qi-enhancing pill that this young master Su made made Gong Zheng feel that he had great potential in pill-making, which was basically half the success. He directly asked him to join the Giant Whale Gang. As long as he cultivated for a period of time, his pill-making ability would If you improve your skills, you will be able to take Gong Zheng's class!

"I will go to Molin Mansion tomorrow, Master Gong will rest first."

Cui He left and left the room.

And Gong Zheng stretched his back and muttered to himself: "I hope this kid won't let me down, he can make faster progress, and I've been in this giant whale gang for decades... I don't want to waste the rest of my time. it's here."

Some time ago, Gong Zheng had a serious illness, and then he said that his health was dying and he needed to retire. In fact, he wrote and acted it himself.

Gong Zheng has been helping the giant whale to make alchemy for decades. He is very tired of these days. In addition to his old age, although his body is still very strong, he really wants to go to the outside world in his last time. Instead of dying here, I was in a hurry to find someone to take his class.

"Dong Dong Dong!"

The next morning, the door of the manor house where Su Changkong lived was slammed.

"Is it Cui He? So fast?"

Su Changkong had just woken up early and finished practicing Wuqinxi when he heard a knock on the door. He was a little surprised. It seemed that only Cui He would visit his place.

Su Changkong came to the door and opened it.

Sure enough, it was Cui He who was standing outside the house!

Cui He said with a smile on his face: "Young Master Su, you are qualified! Master Gong recognizes your potential and will personally instruct you on alchemy. If your alchemy meets the requirements, you can take his class and become our giant whale. Help the official alchemist!"

Cui He brought Su Changkong a piece of good news. Although Su Changkong was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but feel a little joy. Being able to become an alchemist of the Giant Whale Gang meant that there was an endless stream of alchemy opportunities, using other people's resources to Improve your skills!

"Well, then thank you Master Gong for your attention." Su Changkong nodded.

Seeing that Su Changkong didn't show ecstasy or gaffe, Cui He also nodded secretly, the young man in front of him was not surprised, just his temperament was very unusual!

"Is it convenient for Young Master Su? Now go to the Giant Whale Gang with me."

Cui He then said.

"Okay, I'll pack my luggage."

Su Changkong has always acted resolutely, he said something to Cui He and packed his luggage.

Su Changkong didn't have much luggage, two iron slashing knives, sleeve crossbows, some silver notes, and some changed clothes, and nothing else.

"Young Master Su, do you also practice martial arts?"

Cui He couldn't help asking when he saw the outline of Su Changkong's iron-chopping knife wrapped in a cloth towel.

"When I go out, I always have to defend myself with both hands. I will practice and play when I have time."

Su Changkong replied, not hiding the fact that he knew martial arts.

"Well, let's go then." Cui He didn't ask, whether Su Changkong can do martial arts is not important to him or even the Giant Whale Gang, the important thing is alchemy!

With the background of the Giant Whale Gang, not to mention the body forging warriors, there are not a few warriors in the blood realm. Whether it is the gang leader Sikong Yong, or the gang leader's son and daughter, they are all masters in Molin City!

After packing up, Su Changkong and Cui He left together and went to the station of the Giant Whale Gang.

Departing in the morning, the two arrived at the Giant Whale Gang in the afternoon.

The giant whale gang is stationed with many buildings and covers a huge area, like a small town.

What attracted Su Changkong's attention the most was the Giant Whale Gang Center, a huge and exaggerated building!

It was a boat-shaped building that seemed to ride the wind and waves. It was four or five hundred meters long, and its overall area was larger than that of several basketball courts. At the top of the building, there were sails fluttering in the wind, with wave patterns engraved on it. The whale pattern hidden under the pattern, as well as the prominent three characters of 'Giant Whale Gang'.

"Although it's a bit weird...but it's really stylish!"

Su Changkong couldn't help but be amazed. There are many majestic buildings on Blue Star, but seeing such a giant ship-like building with his own eyes still shocked Su Changkong.

"This is a building built with the giant whale as the prototype. It is the symbol of our giant whale gang, and it is also a retreat for the gang leader."

Cui He said with a little pride in his tone.

In the area of ​​Molin Mansion City, the reputation of the Giant Whale Gang is unquestionable. There are many strong members in the gang, and they control the important waterway of the Blue Rain Sea. They have a profound background!

"I'll take you to see Master Gong."

Cui He then took Su Changkong into the Giant Whale Gang.

Along the way, Su Changkong saw many warriors wearing the uniforms of the Giant Whale Gang. Almost all of these people were warriors above the power-refining realm, and they could serve as the core elites in some small gangs.

With the leadership of Cui He, the two of Su Changkong went all the way unimpeded and came to a very quiet medicine house.

"Master Gong, someone brought it."

Soon, Su Changkong saw that Gong Zheng.

"I have seen Master Gong." Su Changkong said very politely to Gong Zheng.

Su Changkong knew that Gong Zheng would instruct him on alchemy, and his progress needed to satisfy Gong Zheng before he could become the alchemist of the Giant Whale Gang.

"Well, the talented person born is really like when I was young." Gong Zheng looked Su Changkong up and down, and said a little sourly, "You should rest today, and start alchemy tomorrow."

Su Changkong was a little speechless, and Cui He on the side said embarrassedly, "Master Gong has such a temper. I will arrange a place for you first."

This Gong Zheng is quite old and disrespectful, and he doesn't look like someone who is not easy to get along with.

Cui He arranged a residence for Su Changkong, because he may be a new alchemist of the Giant Whale Gang in the future, and the place to live is quite luxurious, with a separate secluded house and even a dedicated servant to serve him, but Su Changkong likes it. For the sake of silence, all were pushed away.

"Get up early tomorrow and learn alchemy with Master Gong."

Coming to a new environment, which was far more lively and crowded than Hei Tie Shan Zhuang, Su Changkong was slightly uncomfortable, but he calmed down and quickly settled down, breathing in and out, and practicing the Turtle Breathing Technique.

Early the next morning, after Su Changkong finished practicing Wuqinxi, he came to the Yaolu where Gong Zheng lived, and Gong Zheng also got up early.

Su Changkong saw that Gong Zheng was exercising, and his movements were neither rushed nor slow. It should be some kind of health-preserving boxing similar to Wu Qin Xi.

So Su Changkong waited quietly, until after a quarter of an hour, Gong Zheng let out a sigh of turbidity, and then looked at Su Changkong with a smile: "Young man, you wake up very early, come with me, there are a lot of medicinal herbs today. To practice."

"Um."

Su Changkong nodded and followed Gong Zheng into the alchemy room of Yaolu.

In the alchemy room, there are all kinds of alchemy utensils. There is more than one pill stove, there are large and small, there are four-legged pill cauldrons, and there are also dragon pill stoves. The tools are complete!

"The so-called alchemy is just to smelt various medicinal materials into pills, combine their characteristics, and exert their greatest effect, and the ultimate goal of alchemy is to be able to turn corruption into magic, and even make medicinal materials play beyond their limits. There are no shortcuts in this road, practice more and learn more, you can try it, refining the Qi-enhancing Pill you have practiced before, and I will do my best to correct you."

Gong Zheng was talking to Su Changkong.

"Okay." Su Changkong nodded solemnly and started alchemy.

"This Poria powder doesn't need to be ground so finely, it's rougher, it will be more effective. The raw materials for alchemy are the vegetables needed for cooking. If the raw materials are not handled well, the dishes cooked with high cooking skills will not be delicious." And Gong is watching and guiding.

Su Changkong had to admire that Gong Zheng was indeed an alchemist with decades of experience in alchemy, and could easily see Su Changkong's shortcomings.

For a few months before Su Changkong alchemy, he just read books and practiced, and with the guidance of an experienced alchemist like Gong Zheng, he can avoid detours and achieve more with less!

At the end of the day, Su Changkong refined three furnaces of Qi-enhancing pills, and actually produced 6 finished products, and the quality was better than before. This is undoubtedly a huge improvement!

"It's not bad, let's continue tomorrow. In the Giant Whale Gang, the largest supply is the Qi-enhancing Pill and the Body-Forging Pill. If you can skillfully refine these two kinds of pills, you will be able to meet most of the needs of the Giant Whale Gang."

Gong Zheng complimented him indifferently.

"This young man...he's a genius! It's easy to understand, and it doesn't require any words at all! I don't think I can teach him anything in two or three months!" In fact, Gong Zheng was very shocked, Su Changkong's Progress is almost visible to the naked eye, as soon as you learn it.

This is naturally due to Su Changkong's potential value, which is already as high as 20 points, which is definitely the level of a top genius!

(Three-level integration 12%)

"My alchemy proficiency has increased by 5% in one day?" Su Changkong was also very excited, just because his alchemy was progressing too fast, thanks to Gong Zheng's guidance, it increased by a full 5% in one day !

"There are enough materials to practice, at most one or two months, my alchemy can reach the realm of 4th realm!"

Su Changkong was very excited.

This is the advantage of having a great power to cultivate, not only has the old alchemist's guidance, but also has an unlimited supply of precious medicinal materials to directly practice!

"Master Gong, thank you for your guidance." Su Changkong thanked Gong Zheng gratefully, who was imparting his decades of experience in alchemy to him.

"It doesn't matter, this is an agreement with the Giant Whale Gang. Before I retire, I need to train an alchemist who can take over. In addition... I also want you to become an official alchemist, so that I can retire soon, and you will also That's it." Gong Zheng laughed.

One of the conditions for the Giant Whale Gang to promise Gong Zheng to leave the Giant Whale Gang is to teach his own alchemy skills and train new alchemists. If Su Changkong wants to leave in the future, he must do the same.

Su Changkong felt that this was fair. The Giant Whale Gang had provided so many resources to cultivate an alchemist, and when the alchemy technique was successful, he would leave, how could there be such a good thing?

Gong Zheng stuffed a Qi-enhancing pill into Su Changkong's hand, he winked and said, "You also have this Qi-enhancing pill, you keep it, this is the benefit of an alchemist. Hold tight."

Having said that, Gong Zheng also put a Qi-enhancing pill in his arms, which can be said to be a part of the seer!
