Chapter 7: Three-Revolutions Golden Elixir
Suiren Shi and the others were stunned at first.
Then, they were overjoyed, "Good!"
After a moment of thought, they also realized the benefits of Luo Xuan's method.
Everyone rushed forward desperately upon hearing this, afraid Luo Xuan wouldn't see them.
They understood now.
Luo Xuan would select a few people to learn alchemy.
What did that mean?
It meant they could watch Luo Xuan refine pills up close!
This was much better than now!
After Luo Xuan selected a few people, he let them in and began to teach them the Pill Dao.
In the blink of an eye, a thousand years passed in the Primordial Era.
Flashes of fire occasionally lit up Shouyang Mountain.
The scent of elixirs permeated everywhere.
Some people even began refining pills just outside the courtyard.
One could see an alchemy furnace just by walking around.
Among them was a particularly large alchemy furnace, almost as big as Luo Xuan's Five Directions Cauldron.
"Lie Yan, is your alchemy furnace even any good?"
A group of onlookers from the human race surrounded the giant alchemy furnace.
A man standing by the furnace snorted, "What do you know?"
"The bigger the alchemy furnace, the more and better elixirs you can refine!"
Seeing the disbelieving looks around him, Lie Yan shouted, "Don't you believe me! Watch this!"
As flames rose, Lie Yan continuously added Spiritual Roots into the alchemy furnace.
Soon, the scent of elixirs wafted from the giant furnace.
"It actually works?!"
The surrounding people looked on in astonishment, envying Lie Yan.
Lie Yan, seeing their envious gazes, puffed out his chest.
With a wave of his hand, several round elixirs appeared from the furnace.
Lie Yan said proudly, "See? First-turn Vitality Replenishing Pill."
The crowd immediately offered congratulations.
The person who had mocked Lie Yan earlier sighed, "I really envy you. You can already refine a First-turn Elixir, but I still can't."
"Don't worry, Master Xuan will be choosing a new batch of disciples soon. You'll definitely be able to refine a First-turn Elixir then."
Lie Yan's pride grew even greater.
"I hope so," the man replied, looking unenthusiastic.
A thousand years ago, Luo Xuan began teaching the Pill Dao, and gradually, everyone in the tribe began calling him "Master Xuan."
His prestige in the tribe was second only to the Three Ancestors.
Naturally, this led to a large number of people wanting to learn alchemy, and he didn't think he'd be chosen next time.
Lie Yan leaned in mysteriously, "Let me tell you a secret."
"The bigger the alchemy furnace, the better the refining effect. I'm not the one saying this, it's Master Xuan."
The man was startled at first, then looked at Lie Yan suspiciously, "Really? Master Xuan said that?"
Lie Yan patted his chest, "Of course, would I lie to you?"
Lie Yan had once accidentally seen a giant cauldron in Luo Xuan's house, which gave him the idea. The more he thought about it, the more it made sense.
This time, it proved to be true.
Seeing Lie Yan's confident expression, the man nodded excitedly, "Okay, I'll go back and try it right away."
Similar scenes were constantly unfolding on Shouyang Mountain.
A thousand miles outside Shouyang Mountain, a group of sheep demons with horns on their heads stared coldly at Shouyang Mountain.
Suddenly, a snake demon emerged from the ground.
"Yang Jiu? What are you doing here?" the snake demon asked in surprise, looking at the leading sheep demon.
Yang Jiu was also startled by the snake demon, then said, "The Witch Clan attacked our territory."
"I thought Shouyang Mountain looked good, so I came here. Why do you look so disheveled?"
After calming down, the Sheep Demon noticed the Serpent Demon's travel-worn appearance.
The Serpent Demon's expression changed drastically upon hearing the Sheep Demon intended to go to Shouyang Mountain. "Yang Jiu, listen to my advice, you absolutely cannot go to Shouyang Mountain."
Yang Jiu asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Isn't Shouyang Mountain just a bunch of humans?"
"Hurry over here, I've found that Serpent Demon! There's also a flock of sheep here!"
Just then, a voice suddenly came from afar.
Yang Jiu looked up and saw a human.
The Serpent Demon's face changed drastically and it left without another word.
"Arrogant, too arrogant! They're just a bunch of food!"
Seeing that the human was only at the late Heavenly Immortal realm, not much stronger than himself, killing intent flickered in Yang Jiu's eyes.
Furthermore, more and more humans began to appear.
Too arrogant!
Yang Jiu roared and charged with the flock of sheep, engaging in a fierce battle with the humans.
However, the gazes of these humans made Yang Jiu somewhat confused.
Why were these humans looking at them like they were prey?
Before long, both sides had sustained injuries.
"Humans, die!"
Yang Jiu laughed heartily, but his smile froze on his face.
The humans opposite them all took out elixirs and swallowed them as if they were candy.
Then, he saw the injuries on the humans rapidly healing.
Within a few breaths, they had gained the upper hand.
Yang Jiu was dumbfounded. Since when were there so many elixirs in the Primordial Era?
However, it was too late for him to regret it. A burly man in the crowd laughed heartily, "Don't let any of them escape!"
All the humans' eyes gleamed. These were all excellent materials for alchemy!
A man holding a saber beside the burly man sighed, "Ever since Master Xuan started teaching alchemy, our lives have gotten much better."
The burly man also chuckled, "Indeed. There haven't been many demon races attacking Shouyang Mountain lately."
"I heard Master Xuan is close to refining the Third-grade Elixir."
"I really hope we can go back soon and have Master Xuan teach us the alchemy for the Third-grade Elixir." The burly man looked towards Shouyang Mountain with anticipation.
And the Master Xuan they were all thinking of.
At this moment, he was disheveled and had shut himself in his room.
[Detected that the host has refined nine Second-grade Immortal Spirit Elixirs, top quality.]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining one Blood Wolf Demon Core.]
[Detected that the host has refined nine Second-grade Immortal Spirit Elixirs, top quality.]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the divine ability: Heaven-Shrouding Miasma.]
Even though these were Third-grade Elixirs, Luo Xuan seemed unsatisfied and casually tossed them away.
Behind him lay piles of elixirs, all Third-grade Immortal Spirit Elixirs, at least a hundred of them.
"No, the heat was too intense for this batch..."
"No, there were too many Earth Immortal branches in this batch..."
"Still not right, the Immortal Power wasn't enough for this batch..."
The Immortal Spirit Elixirs, which appeared to be of excellent quality, were merely failed attempts at refining the Third-grade Golden Elixir for Luo Xuan.
The Nine Revolutions Golden Pill refined by Laozi could allow one to reach Grand Unity instantly, while the Third-grade Golden Elixir could elevate someone to True Immortal even if they had no cultivation at all.
The Third-grade Golden Elixir was also a watershed moment in the Pill Dao.
Only by refining the Third-grade Golden Elixir could one truly step onto the threshold of the Pill Dao.
"So close, just a little bit closer..."
Luo Xuan's hair was disheveled, but his eyes shone brighter.
He felt he was only one step away from refining the Third-grade Golden Elixir.
