Immortal Formula

   Chapter 295 The secret of the sect

Zhang Daniu looked up at the sky, it was already night, and he said, "Senior Sister Lin has been urgently summoned by the headmaster and rushed back. I have to inform other disciples, so I won't stay any longer." Quickly back to the front mountain.

  Gu Yan watched his back slowly go away, and then returned to the residence in the spiritual garden, reported to Lao Rong as usual, and then talked about what Zhang Daniu just mentioned.

Rong Lao listened to the silence and said after a long while: "Not long before you came back, the head of the sect came to me and took away the forbidden seal of the Lingyuan. I guess what I will talk about tomorrow is mostly with the red maple in the back mountain. Gu has something to do with it."

Gu Yan was stunned, not knowing what Rong Lao meant when he said this, then Rong Lao said again: "You have been here for a year, although I am a mortal, but I have seen a lot when I was young, and I can see that you are different from the previous ones. Those people in my life are different. They are not ordinary disciples from the outer sect who came to defect. Over the past year, you have treated me with all your heart, like a teacher. I accept your affection. Let's have a fate between you. Today, I suddenly feel that the relationship between you and me is probably over."

  Gu Yan was silent, Lao Rong's senses were indeed sharp, and she didn't want to lie, so she just kept silent.

Rong Lao said: "You and I have been together for a year, and you probably don't know my origin. In fact, it is not only you, but even the disciples of Bixia Sect, who are quite curious. It is strange that the head and the elders, why are you right? I am a mortal who respects me so much, but they don't know that my seniority is a generation higher than the current head, and I was commensurate with the elder Jiedan who did not go out."

Gu Yan raised her head in surprise. Although she didn't know the details of the big change in the Bixia Sect hundreds of years ago, she knew that the only elder in the Bixia Sect at the time was the head of the sect. That's all for a young disciple. That incident caused the Bixia Sect's elite to suffer a great loss, and only this personal disciple was left to form a pill and support the Bixia Sect so that he could still maintain the status of a noon sect in the Wei Kingdom, otherwise there would be no such thing. In the town of Jiedan cultivator, most of the Bixia Sect will be eaten by the surrounding sects and families to the point where there are no bones left. Since Rong Lao said so, isn't he higher in seniority than that cultivator?

Old Rong saw her surprise and gave a wry smile: "You can probably see that I am a mortal person and can't cultivate immortality. However, I had made friends with the sect master and helped him with the elixir, so he allowed me to be a master and a disciple. I have been listed in the sect and listed in the list of Bixia Sect. No matter which generation of disciples, I must obey. As for why I can live for such a long time with a mortal body, it is also related to the great change that year. ."

This is also strange to Gu Yan. Generally speaking, the lifespan of a mortal is no more than a hundred years old, but according to Rong Lao, he is at least 300 years old this year. You must know that a monk in the early stage of foundation building may not be to live so long!

Rong Lao said slowly: "The master I follow is indeed a genius in alchemy. He has collected a lot of ancient alchemy recipes, thinking that although the world has changed and time has changed, the way of alchemy has been the same since ancient times. Fang, it may not be impossible to find an alternative, so I have always been obsessed with it, and then I simply don't even want to be the head of the family, not only in Wei, but even traveled all over Cangwu, looking for the spirit grass and herbs she needed. Dan Fang, she later learned from the classics in the door that the founder of the Bixia sect once had a unique alchemy technique, but for some reason, it has not been passed down. If you can find that secret method, Maybe she can really remake the ancient elixir and refine the magical elixir recorded in ancient times."

When Gu Yan heard this, her heart couldn't help jumping up suddenly. The pill furnace is still in her hands. Old Rong has seen it before. Probably no one knows. In the eye-catching pill furnace, right?

Old Rong did not notice her expression, and continued: "Hou Shan is where the spiritual garden is located, and she wanted to find the ancestor's relics, so she stayed in the spiritual garden without leaving home, and collected her from all over the place. The spiritual seeds that came were planted one by one. That’s when I entered the spiritual garden to serve. Because I have a unique experience in serving the spiritual grass, I was favored by her and accepted as a disciple. At that time, there were a total of six masters. Disciple, I used to be fourth."

  Gu Yan sighed, the head of the sect is also considered a strange person, not only did he have fantastic ideas, like taking a mortal person as a disciple, she had never heard of it before.

Rong Laodao: "We don't know what the master has in the spiritual garden, but one day she suddenly said happily that she had found a new type of alchemy method, improved the ancient alchemy recipe, and then After re-refining, I decided to leave the alchemy alchemy idle. After forty-nine days, the furnace was opened. Another disciple and I waited on the side. He was in charge of helping the master to control the fire, and I had to control the increase or decrease of the amount of medicinal materials. At that time, I felt very uncomfortable. It's strange, the sect master used to prepare alchemy ingredients in advance, and he would not increase or decrease them arbitrarily."

Gu Yan probably guessed a few points when he heard this. Presumably that Patriarch Bixia not only left the alchemy technique on the Baoding, but also mentioned in the Lingyuan that the master of Rong Lao was also enlightened. When this technique is reached, alchemy will be opened. The key to this secret method is the fusion of the control of the heat and the medicinal properties, so when the furnace is opened, it is necessary to keep abreast of the changes of medicinal properties and increase or decrease at any time.

   She asked curiously, "I don't know what kind of medicinal herbs your master made?"

  Old Rong said: "That is also a pill recipe passed down from ancient times. The name is difficult and complicated. Let's not mention it. In later generations, there is a simple name called Yanshou Pill!"

Gu Yan's heart skipped a beat. When she was returning to the Ruins Sea, she once fetched treasures from the Jinting Treasure House where the pearls were separated from the ground. At that time, there were two jade balls. Longevity Pill, this spiritual pill is still hidden by her in the chaotic space, and the importance of Yanshou Pill is probably not clear to all cultivators.

You must know that the lifespan of immortal cultivators is much higher than that of mortals, but it is also limited. A foundation-building cultivator can live three to eight hundred years. However, some people are stuck at the final juncture and cannot pass. In the end, they can only exhaust their vitality and die helplessly. If they can live for a few hundred more years, who would dare to say that they will not be able to cross that juncture? Therefore, the importance of Yanshou Dan is not to be mentioned.

But this kind of pill recipe is only passed down in ancient times, and now even the medicinal materials are not well matched, so now there is no alchemist who can make it. Occasionally, a longevity pill will appear in the Xiuxian world, which is also a legacy from ancient times. In the end, it will still be taken by several major forces. Rong Lao's master can refine this kind of medicine pill, so needless to say, she will definitely become the target of public criticism!

When Rong Lao saw her expression, he showed a wry smile, "You must have guessed it, but at that time, Master became an idiot in alchemy, how could he have thought of this, we are young disciples, just follow her orders to do things, I still talk about alchemy Let’s face it. Speaking of which, alchemy isn’t as smooth as it used to be.”

There was a contemplative look on his old face, as if he could not remember what happened hundreds of years ago. After practicing for nine, nine and eighty-one days, it was still not finished. My senior brother and I waited by her side, controlling the fire according to her instructions, increasing or decreasing the amount of medicine. It was obvious that the fragrance of the medicine had already appeared, but the master always said that it was not finished. , he refused to open the furnace for a long time."

Gu Yan could probably guess a few points after listening to his remarks. This method of alchemy must be controlled by fire and combined with the increase and decrease of medicinal properties to achieve the goal of perfect harmony. It is better than herself in terms of knowledge, but it is not like her, a fire spirit with various attributes that is uniquely endowed by nature. Since the medicinal properties are not compatible, the erysipelas will not go away, so it cannot be turned into a pill after all.

Rong Lao continued: "Until the ninety-ninth day, the fragrance of medicine suddenly bloomed and went straight to Xiao Han. We all thought that Dan was going to be completed, but the expression of the leader was even more solemn. At that time, there were senior brothers and sisters. They came up to report, so we found out that the great medicinal fragrance and the birth of the elixir have attracted all the sects in Fangyuan!"

Gu Yan nodded, she could imagine that this was the head of the sect who failed in the final step of combining the pills, and failed to fully integrate the medicinal properties, so the aura evaporated and shot straight into the sky, but for outsiders to see it, it must be I thought that Bixiazong had some strange treasure, or a top-quality elixir.

Rong Lao sneered at this time, "Those sects that pride themselves on benevolence and righteousness, they usually talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality well, but this time they met a benefit, aren't you vying for me first?" He said with his fingers, "Wei The family, the Lu family, the Nanyangmen, the Yunshan faction… there’s no shortage of one!”

His face sank again, "If it's just these people, then it's nothing. After all, Bixia Sect was the leading faction in the Wei Kingdom. If you fight to the death, you may not be wiped out by these people, but At that time, a non-local monk happened to pass by. It was a middle-aged Nascent Soul with vast supernatural powers. The people present were not opponents. He chased in and used the fire of innate fire to burn the whole mountain, and finally burned down the spiritual garden accumulated by the ancestors of the past dynasties! Although he still got the Dan Ding in the end, it did not become a Dan. After he left, Bixia Zong's elite has also been lost, and only some young disciples who have just entered the school are left, and finally they have become what they are today."

Gu Yan couldn't help taking a breath of cold air. She could imagine what a tragic situation it would be for a Nascent Soul cultivator to force a sect under pressure, but no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't escape the law of life and death, otherwise he would Why come to grab this longevity pill? She smiled bitterly and asked, "Since the elixir hasn't been completed yet, could it be that the seniors ate the scraps from that time, so that they are still alive today?"
