Chapter 437 Xuanyang Pill

Zhang Zhixuan thought for a moment and said, "I don't have a good relationship with Elder Luo, so I may not be able to ask her to accept disciples. After all, Elder Luo's cultivation is already very high. In the past few decades, she must have been busy breaking through the golden elixir and has no time to teach her disciples. Otherwise, let Lan Niang worship Liang Yuxian as her teacher!"

Liang Yuxian is a member of the Liang family. In Qingxuan Sect, she not only has her master Luo Ziyan to take care of her, but also Wei Bohan and Kang Duhe, two purple palaces, have devoted a lot of effort to her. She has only been practicing Taoism for sixty years, and her cultivation has reached the fourth level of foundation building. She has enough experience to teach disciples.

Zhang Zhixuan took over Heishan and was very good to Liang's disciples and relatives. He had a relatively deep friendship with Liang's disciples Wei Bohan and Kang Duhe. Moreover, the future of the Zhang family's three purple palaces is also very bright. As long as they are not blind, the cultivators in the sect are willing to have a relationship with them.

So after Zhang Zhixuan wrote a letter, Liang Yuxian immediately rushed to Qingyangfang, met Lan Niang, and accepted this disciple.

After leaving Qingyangfang, Zhang Zhixuan and the other two returned directly to the Black Mountain Cave.

In the past six months, good news came from Black Mountain. After Zhang Zerui took the foundation-building pill, he successfully broke through the barrier and reached the foundation-building realm.

Zhang Zerui's ancestors were all mortals, and there was no place to borrow strength. If he practiced normally, it would be difficult to collect 3,000 good deeds before the age of 60 and exchange for the foundation-building pill to build the foundation. So although he had good spiritual roots, he took the risk and chose to practice the Pure Yang Treasure Book. He received the support of Zhang Zhixuan, and he went smoothly all the way. He successfully built the foundation before he was 50 years old.

Zhang Zerui's success in building the foundation is enough to prove that for the gold, fire and wood cultivators, the Pure Yang Treasure Book has basically no strong side effects in the Qi training period, and it also strengthened Zhang Zhixuan's confidence in the creation of the next step of the practice.

Since Zhang Zerui established his foundation, more than a dozen cultivators in his family have chosen to practice the Pure Yang Treasure Book. Only when more and more cultivators practice this method and find the shortcomings of the method can this method become more and more perfect.

After Zhang Zerui established his foundation, he was sent by Zhang Zhixuan to the family's Lingjing Mountain, where he sat in the family's base camp with Sijin. With the addition of three third-level puppets, the defense near Lingjing Mountain has been very strict. Unless a war breaks out in Qingxuan Sect and faces earth-shaking turmoil, even if the cultivators of the ninth level of foundation building take action, they are enough to deal with this trouble.

Back in Heishan, Qingchan sat in Heishan, while Zhang Zhixuan and Hanyan returned to Lingjing Cave Mansion to retreat and digest the gains this time.

In addition to the methods he got for reference, the most important gain for Zhang Zhixuan this time was the pill formula. Hongshan Sect is not as well-established as Qingxuan Sect in alchemy. After all, Qingxuan Sect is located in the southern wilderness close to Song State, and it is easier to obtain pill formula inheritance and high-level spiritual medicine.

Hongshan Sect has only seven fourth-level recipes, five of which overlap with Qingxuan Sect's recipes. There is only one fifth-level recipe, which Qingxuan Sect already has in its collection. For Qingxuan Sect, the only single recipes obtained this time are two fourth-level recipes.

However, the Zhang family gained a lot in this battle, and obtained three fourth-level recipes, one of which is a fourth-level middle-grade recipe. After refining this elixir, Zhang Zhixuan's alchemy skills can be taken to a higher level.

The Zhang family originally had two fourth-level recipes in their collection, and in addition to the Yin-Yang Bipolar Pill that he exchanged from the sect and could not be passed on to others, he had already studied three fourth-level recipes in detail. In addition to the three fourth-level recipes obtained this time, Zhang Zhixuan's inheritance in alchemy has now far exceeded that of Zhang Tairen's era.

It happened that a batch of fourth-level spiritual medicines were harvested in Lingjing Cave Mansion. There were eleven fourth-level spiritual medicines in this batch, three of which missed the picking deadline and could no longer be used as medicine. The remaining eight spiritual medicines were carefully preserved by Zhang Zhixuan.

Among these eight spiritual medicines, there is exactly one that can be used to refine a furnace of fourth-level lower-grade Xuanyang Pills.

With the main medicine, the remaining auxiliary spiritual medicines are easier to deal with. Zhang Zhixuan immediately issued an edict to let the family monks collect auxiliary spiritual medicines and collect spiritual medicine seeds to plant in the spiritual medicine garden outside the Hanjiao Pond.

In recent decades, Zhang Zhixuan has run the Hanjiao Pond spiritual vein as a spiritual medicine garden. Not only has he planted a large number of spiritual herbs, he has also asked Zhang Yuantai and Wu Dingyang to take care of it.

Wu Dingyang is the seventh disciple of Liang Laozu. His cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building. He was responsible for managing the spiritual medicine garden on the Black Mountain. However, he was unlucky to encounter the chaos of the East Pole locusts. Because of his negligence, he did not discover the laying of eggs by the East Pole locusts in advance. The Black Mountain spiritual medicine garden was swept away, and Liang Laozu's years of investment also lost the capital. So afterwards, Chen Yuanzhen, Yu Jinglong and other brothers and sisters all complained about him.

Zhang Zhixuan built the spiritual medicine garden and used this person regardless of previous grudges. He not only gave him a generous subsidy of 400 spiritual stones every year, but also asked him to copy and watch the spiritual plant husband inheritance collected by the Zhang family.

A few years ago, this person had become the first guest official of the Zhang family in the foundation-building period. After the transplantation of the fire spirit fruit, this person was greatly inspired and became the first third-level spiritual plant husband in the history of Black Mountain three years ago.

Now his authority in the spiritual medicine garden has exceeded Zhang Yuantai. Not only the Hanjiaotan spiritual medicine garden, but also the spiritual medicines planted by the Zhang family in Lingjing Mountain, Tiantai Peak, and Wanshe Cave are basically under his control.

After Zhang Zhixuan issued the edict, Wu Dingyang, Zhang Sihong, Zhang Zerui, Zhang Sidao and others ran all over Black Mountain, Taicheng County, Taihong Mountain and Qingxuan Sect's spiritual medicine garden. Sihong even went to the territory of Huanshui Sect and ran to many places to collect some auxiliary spiritual medicines.

For the last few remaining ones, because Zhang Zhixuan was not convenient to travel far, Wu Dingyang and Chen Yuanzhen went to Song State to collect a furnace of spiritual pills.

It took a year and a half to prepare a furnace of spiritual medicine. During this year and a half, Zhang Zhixuan practiced and figured out the recipe of this furnace of spiritual medicine.

After collecting all the spiritual medicines, Zhang Zhixuan immediately chose to start refining the medicine in Heishan.

Although he had fewer opportunities to refine fourth-level spiritual medicine, this was only the third time he refined a fourth-level spiritual medicine. However, in recent years, high-level spiritual medicines in Heishan, Taicheng County and other places have basically been monopolized by Zhang Zhixuan. Every year, he has to start refining a few furnaces of third-level spiritual medicine. His alchemy skills have not become rusty, but have become more sophisticated.

This time, because of the full preparation, the refining process of Xuanyang Pill was relatively smooth. Although it was the first time to refine this kind of spiritual medicine, Zhang Zhixuan's success rate reached 30%, and he did not lose money.

The main ingredient of Xuanyang Pill is Xuanyang Fruit. This kind of spiritual medicine can refine pure yang energy, which is of great help to the practice of pure yang magic. Even for Zhang Zhixuan who practices purple gas magic, it also has a strong auxiliary effect.

After he personally took a Xuanyang Pill, he discovered that the large amount of pure yang energy in the elixir could actually transform a portion of the innate purple energy. After taking a elixir, he could save at least three years of time in practicing the Qi Condensation Technique.

After discovering this effect, Zhang Zhixuan immediately handed the remaining two elixirs to Qingchan.
