Chapter 16 Further confirmation of talent
July in early autumn.
Li Qianqing is already sixteen years old this year.
At this age, it is possible to talk about marriage.
Some cultivators with poor spiritual root talents will choose to get married and have children at this age.
Their own talents are not good, and they hope to give birth to offspring with amazing talents.
The combination of cultivators and mortals will increase the probability of the next generation having spiritual roots. The probability of the next generation having spiritual roots will be even greater when cultivators and cultivators combine. According to the experience of predecessors, after the next generation has spiritual roots, the spiritual root talent has no direct relationship with the previous generation.
It is entirely possible for cultivators with poor spiritual root talents to give birth to offspring with amazing spiritual root talents, and the situation of cultivators with amazing spiritual root talents is also the same.
Male cultivators with poor spiritual root talents can basically only find mortals to marry, unless they can meet female cultivators who have the same ideas as him and do not despise him, because the situation of female cultivators is completely different from that of male cultivators. Children come out of their stomachs, unlike male cultivators who can find many mortal women and let mortal women give birth.
Once female cultivators have the idea of nurturing offspring, they will basically look for strong male cultivators, so that there is a great guarantee that their offspring will be mortals. It is naturally best if they have spiritual roots. If they have a strong father, their starting point is much higher than other cultivators without backgrounds, and it is easier to obtain resources.
Once male cultivators choose to start desperately marrying and having children, it means that they have given up the path of cultivation.
In addition to their daily work and earning spiritual food for cultivation, they basically spend the rest of their time in a state of hard work, and have little time for cultivation.
They do not eat white corn, but choose mortal food. If they do not spend a lot of time every day to eliminate acquired dirt, they will be affected by these acquired dirt, and their life span will be similar to that of mortals.
Mortals who die of natural causes without illness or disaster have a life span of about 70 years. Cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage can live at least 100 years. If they do not have hidden diseases or injuries left in battle, it is normal to live 120 years. Practicing health-preserving techniques can even live longer.
A cultivator with good spiritual root talent will marry and have children later, and will not spread seeds crazily.
This leads to the situation of uneven ages in the same generation.
There are cultivators of the Xing generation older than Li Qianqing, and there are cultivators of the Li generation younger than him. For example, his nineteenth uncle is currently the youngest cultivator of the Li generation.
Among the Qian generation, he ranks thirteenth.
After taking care of the spiritual field today, he did not start practicing.
He needs to go to Li Di Tu to refine pills.
Unlike refining the Bigu Pill, the pill refined this time is a first-level lower-grade Qi Gathering Pill.
Among low-level cultivators, the first-level lower-grade Qi Gathering Pill is a pill with good sales.
Generally speaking, pills that can speed up the speed of practice will never lack a market.
"Second Grandpa." Li Qianqing quickly came to Li Di Tu's residence.
"Come on, come in quickly."
Li Di Tu was a little excited. Refining the Qi Gathering Pill can better understand Li Qianqing's talent for alchemy.
The main spiritual medicine of the first-grade inferior Qi Gathering Pill, the Xiaoyun Spiritual Flower, has a maximum growth year of three years, which is also the best time for the Xiaoyun Spiritual Flower to be used as medicine.
The quality of the spiritual medicine is determined by the maximum growth year. The higher the growth year of the spiritual medicine, the higher the quality. The best time for most spiritual medicines to be used as medicine is between the maximum growth year and two-thirds of the maximum growth year.
It has been three years since the last time the first-grade inferior Qi Gathering Pill was refined.
This time, they decided to give 70% of the refining of the first-grade inferior Qi Gathering Pill to Li Qianqing, and Li Ditu was responsible for 30%.
Only a few core members of their family knew this, and others knew that about 20% was given to Li Qianqing for refining.
According to Li Ditu's estimate of Li Qianqing, if 70% of the first-grade inferior Qi Gathering Pills were given to Li Qianqing for refining, the total number of first-grade inferior Qi Gathering Pills obtained in the end would not differ from the number of Qi Gathering Pills that others knew would be refined by more than half a percent.
Li Ditu is quite confident in this junior.
"Qianqing, is there anything you don't understand about the process of refining the first-grade lower-grade Qi Gathering Pill?"
"No." Li Qianqing shook his head. "Second Grandpa, I have learned the process of refining the first-grade lower-grade Qi Gathering Pill very thoroughly these days."
"Very good!"
Looking at Li Qianqing's confident look, Li Di Tu was looking forward to it more and more.
Hope to get a better result, at least not lower than his estimate.
"Let's get started. I will watch you for the first furnace, but I will not give any guidance during the refining process. Just concentrate on refining."
The more difficult the pill is to refine, the harder it is to give guidance.
According to Li Di Tu's experience, when refining the first-grade intermediate pill, he can only watch, and only when Li Qianqing finishes refining can he give corresponding guidance. Now he is still refining the first-grade lower-grade pill, and he can still give guidance in the middle.
"Okay, second grandpa, I'm starting."
So the materials have been laid out, and now Li Qianqing can refine the Qi Gathering Pill as long as he takes out the alchemy furnace.
This feeling of being ready, as if Li Ditu was his apprentice in alchemy, first preparing all the materials for the master before alchemy.
A first-grade inferior Qi-gathering pill, in addition to the main spiritual medicine Xiaoyun Linghua, there are only two auxiliary materials, Qingming Grass and Lutian Ginseng. The maximum growth years of these two auxiliary spiritual medicines are one and a half years, and the other is two and a half years. They are both first-grade inferior spiritual medicines.
One Xiaoyun Linghua, two Qingming Grasses, and three Lutian Ginsengs.
Such a furnace of first-grade lower-grade Qi Gathering Pills can produce up to five Qi Gathering Pills, which Li Di Tu can already make with two materials in one furnace, and has a good success rate.
When the furnace temperature reached a certain level, Li Qianqing first added a ginseng, and the other two ginsengs were the last materials to be added.
When the ginseng was half-melted, it was the best time to add Qingming Grass...
As time went by, Li Qianqing's technique of refining first-grade lower-grade Qi Gathering Pills seemed to be getting more and more proficient.
The furnace was sealed to prevent energy loss, and the last step was to compress and condense the pill.
Li Di Tu nodded with satisfaction. Li Qianqing did not disappoint him in the process of refining the first-grade lower-grade Qi Gathering Pill. As he thought, Li Qianqing was not a pharmacology idiot. He would make a big mistake in the timing of adding the spiritual medicine, and the step of fusion of the medicinal power was also completed well.
Especially when compressing and condensing the pill, the previous corresponding practice of the Bigu Pill was perfectly applied when refining the first-grade lower-grade Qi Gathering Pill.
This is talent!
Li Di Tu sighed in his heart, and at the same time he was very happy to be Li Qianqing's enlightenment master.
"Huh, done." Li Qianqing wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Five pills have been formed and Li Di Tu is more eager to see the final results than Li Qianqing.
Thank you for the reward of 100 starting coins from [Dream Wakes Up Still Dreams]! Thank you for your support!
