Chapter 62: Fourth Rank
Seven days later.
Only four blood essence pills were consumed.
Yu Xiao achieved his wish and broke through to the fourth level.
"Another breakthrough!"
Yu Xiao felt his blood energy becoming increasingly strong and pure, and he was very satisfied with his cultivation speed and state.
He didn't expect it himself.
It's unexpected that I can break through so quickly!
Even if the time of both worlds is added together.
It has been less than two years since I started practicing.
He reached the fourth level of martial arts and the second level of Qi training in just two years. This speed can be called a genius.
But in Wei Biao's eyes, his junior brother had only been practicing for a little over a year.
This is how the year goes.
What is the concept of this?
Although Wei Biao often mocked himself for his mediocre qualifications, he was able to stand out from hundreds of outer disciples in the Chunlei Boxing Gym and become a true disciple of the inner courtyard. His qualifications were naturally extraordinary, at least one in a hundred.
He cultivated to Yu Xiao’s current level.
But it took twelve or thirteen years!
However, compared to the breakthrough to the second level of Qi Refining, Wei Biao was not surprised by the progress of his martial arts blood and energy.
This is a natural thing!
Yu Xiao has not announced any breakthrough in Dajing yet.
After all, a fourth-rank master is already a first-rate master in Dajing, and his breakthrough this time is too close to the last one!
Announced as soon as possible.
This is too exaggerated and unreasonable!
Yu Xiao wants to be in the spotlight but doesn't want to be treated as a monster!
He decided to hold off for a few days to lay the groundwork, and it would not be too late to announce that his blood energy had broken through to the fourth level.
As for whether it will be noticed by others?
Don’t worry too much then!
The fifth and fourth grades are both in the middle stage of blood refining, and there is no difference in their outward performance. Only when they use all their strength to stimulate their blood and qi and fight against others can the specific strength of their blood and qi be seen.
These days.
Great harvest!
Yu Xiao not only made rapid progress in Qi training and martial arts.
His practice in alchemy has been going quite smoothly. He has now successfully mastered the art of alchemy and has the ability to make pills.
of course.
From learning alchemy.
To be able to refine good pills.
This process still has a long way to go.
……
now.
Inside Lu Lingyun's alchemy room.
Yu Xiao’s actions were as fierce as a tiger.
Finally completed the refining of a batch of spiritual herb pills.
"The pill is ready!"
The moment the alchemy furnace is opened.
Three green and black pills appeared before his eyes.
"Well, it is indeed an improvement, but there are still many impurities, and the toxicity of the herbs has not been completely eliminated. It can only be regarded as the lowest grade spiritual herb pill!"
Lu Lingyun simply waved his sleeves, and the three pills were thrown into the slag bucket next to him like fallen leaves returning to their roots, joining the waste residues produced in the process of refining the medicine.
"Hey, why did you lose it?"
"Haha, to be frank, even a dog might not eat this kind of spiritual herb pill if it's thrown on the roadside!"
This is a bit discouraging!
Yu Xiao couldn't help but sigh: It's really difficult to make elixirs!
recent.
In order to learn alchemy.
He has already consumed hundreds of spiritual herbs. Although these herbs are not too expensive, they are still worth dozens of spiritual stones.
No wonder there are so few casual cultivators who learn to make pills.
Not only does this alchemy process require a huge amount of time, but the materials consumed in the process alone are not something that an average cultivator can afford.
Yu Xiao was not discouraged.
A lot of time, energy and even spirit stones were invested.
But recently, under the guidance of Lu Lingyun, he has made great progress.
"One more!"
“It will definitely work this time!”
Yu Xiao glanced at the medicine box and said, "Hey, the spiritual herbs are all used up again? I have to go to the market to buy some."
Without delay
Leave now!
Lu Lingyun said at this time: "In fact, your current mastery of alchemy is okay, but your control over the furnace temperature is not good enough. If you can't improve this, it will be useless to practice ten more furnaces."
Yu Xiao humbly asked: "So how can we improve it?"
Lu Lingyun said: "Low-level cultivators rely on external fire sources when refining pills. You might as well spend some time learning the 'fire control technique'. This technique will be of great help in controlling the temperature of the pill refining fire!" Fire control technique.
A small spell that cultivators in the early stages of Qi Refining can master.
This spell does not directly produce flames, but it can control the flames within a certain range around it. Its practical value is not very high, but it is very useful for low-level alchemists.
I just want to learn a new spell recently.
In that case, let’s go to the market together.
Before Yu Xiaolin left, Lu Lingyun reminded him, "I want to eat roast chicken today, so I'd like to buy a Lingyu chicken."
"Row!"
Recently, he has been following Lu Lingyun to learn alchemy every day, and Lu Lingyun does not charge him any spirit stones. He only needs to cook a meal every few days.
This good thing doesn't come often.
Lu Lingyun doesn't eat much.
Yu Xiao also needs to eat anyway.
Soon, they arrived at the largest cultivator shop in Baiyunfang. This shop not only sold various magic weapon fragments, but also elixirs, talismans, and alchemy furnaces.
"Fellow Daoist Yu, welcome!"
As soon as Yu Xiaogang walked in, he was personally received by the shopkeeper.
The Three Friends of Spring Thunder have become increasingly famous in Baiyunfang in recent days.
Wei Biao has reached the late stage of blood refining and has completed the second level of Qi refining.
Lu Lingyun is at the third level of Qi Refining and is also an alchemist.
Although Yu Xiao is the most low-key and least distinctive among the three friends, with his cultivation level of the second level of Qi Refining and his blood Qi in the middle stage of Blood Refining, he is not a weakling among the independent cultivators in Baiyunfang.
"Are there any secret documents on fire control?"
"Yes, please move!"
I was led to the magic specialty area.
Pieces of jade slips appeared before my eyes.
Yu Xiao was not unfamiliar with this kind of magical jade slip.
He learned the skills of perception and invisibility through the jade tablets of Dharma.
This jade slip is encrypted and can only be read by the same person and used only once.
The shopkeeper took out a jade tablet that contained Dharma teachings and presented it to Yu Xiao.
"Fellow Daoist Yu, please take a look. This is the jade tablet of the Fire Control Technique. It was made by the workshop outside Qinglan Valley. The quality is absolutely flawless."
"How many spirit stones?"
"Thirty-five!"
Yu Xiao remained calm.
He took another look at the other secret documents in the shop.
These dozens of jade slips all record very common Qi-refining spells. Except for a few that require at least the third level of Qi-refining to activate, the rest of the spells can theoretically be learned.
of course.
This is a spell used in the early stages of Qi training.
In fact, most of them are useless.
Most monks will only learn three or two of them for use.
Sometimes, instead of spending effort to practice magic, it is better to buy spell talismans, which is more convenient in actual combat.
Yu Xiao made a selection.
Three practical spells were selected from many spells.
These three spells are: Light Body, Tracking, and Illusion.
Yu Xiao did not choose any offensive spell.
Because there is not much need.
Spells cast before the middle stage of Qi Refining are almost impossible to be more powerful than two light machine guns, and unlikely to be more useful than the Qingmang Sword.
It is better to choose some spells that are not offensive but more practical.
The shopkeeper quickly said, "120 spirit stones in total!"
"I've bought so much, can't it be cheaper?"
"Oh, Fellow Daoist Yu, you don't know that our profits are also very meager."
There was some pulling.
The shopkeeper refused to agree to lower the price.
Yu Xiao wondered whether he should call Lu Lingyun for help.
"Fellow Daoist Yu, how about this? Buy four and get one free. I'll give you a copy of the 'Clothes Purification Technique'. How about that?"
Clean clothes technique?
The effect is to clean clothes.
Although it is the lowest level spell, the price is very cheap, just over 10 spirit stones, but it is still practical.
Yu Xiao thought about it.
I also think it's acceptable.
