After returning to Wulin Marketplace, Li Yuan went directly to the mine.
In Natural Hollow, Fiend Cultivation Array is still running slowly. The Spirit Pattern between several Array Eyes is already very stable, and the Fiend Qi of Backflow is also much heavier than the first. Li Yuan walked to the center of the cavity and separated the things brought back this time.
The first thing I took out was the Fiend Qi material.
A bunch of pure bad stuff.
Those with evil spirits are placed on the other side.
Li Yuan did not throw it all into Fiend Cultivation Array, but put it in in batches.
The first batch was placed with the purest part Sha Bone and two sealed pieces of Second-Order Fiend Stone. As soon as the spiritual power was sent, Fiend Cultivation Array immediately pulled out the calm Fiend Qi, and slowly scattered it into the depths of Mineral Vein Dao along several Main Pattern.
There was silence in the cavity, and only the lines on the surface of Array Eye were lit up little by little.
Wait for Fiend Qi in the first batch of materials to be sucked dry before adding Li Yuan to the second batch.
What was put in this time were several higher-level evil materials mixed with some miscellaneous energy.
It took nearly an hour before all the evil materials were absorbed.
Li Yuan closed his eyes and felt for a moment.
The changes in Mineral Vein Dao are very clear. Fiend Cultivation Array turns more smoothly, but there is still a long way to go before it can completely absorb the evil material.
After a few more days, the change finally came.
More than one piece of Mid-Grade Fiend Stone is steadily condensing, and several of the deepest Fiend Qi Backflow have also sunk to a new level.
The trend that was originally only pushed upward by retaliation and correction has finally truly fallen on Mineral Vein Dao itself.
The overall grade of Mineral Vein Dao has reached a level that can produce Mid-Grade Fiend Stone.
This is not an accidental appearance of one or two pieces, but the entire Mineral Vein Dao has finally crossed that threshold. As long as Fiend Cultivation Array continues, Mineral Vein Dao itself can continue to be generated.
Li Yuan stood for a moment before slowly opening his eyes.
It's done.
The previous few pieces of Mid-Grade Fiend Stone were mostly sporadic condensations that were pushed out through feedback and external force; but this time it is different, the foundation of Mineral Vein Dao itself has truly crossed that line.
It took me so long to make Fiend Cultivation Array, hunt for Fiend Demon, and find high-quality materials, then feed back and make corrections bit by bit, and finally pushed this Fiend Ore to this point.
There are two permanent conditions for Fiend Vein Special Equipment.
One is from Cultivation Method to Mid-Grade Fiend Stone.
This provision is now satisfied.
The other one is still missing.
Equipped for fifty years.
The conditions are only half fulfilled.
After waiting for your golden elixir, you can permanently make Affix of Three Origins Unity, and at the same time make the spiritual veins permanent. In this way, you will have two more Special Equipment Slots, enough to equip Fiend Vein.
Li Yuan stood for a while, turned around and walked out of Mine Tunnel, towards Outpost.
Chen Yi has been there these days.
When Li Yuan passed by, Chen Yi was checking with two disciples what had been removed from Ruins's peripherals in recent days.
Seeing Li Yuan come in, Chen Yi raised his hand and asked the two people to retreat first.
"Ghost Mist Forest found something else over there?" Chen Yi asked.
Li Yuan nodded and told the story of how he went out to hunt Fiend Demon and met Devil Cultivator on the way to explore Spirit Vein Branch.
From discovering the Foundation Establishment monk near the branch, to seeing that the opponent had demonic aura, to fighting to kill him, Li Yuan spoke straightforwardly and did not add anything else.
Chen Yi After listening, his face became obviously darker.
"I touched the branch vein again."
"Yes." Li Yuan said.
"And it's not a mistake, it's a special investigation."
Chen Yi tapped his fingers on the edge of the table and did not speak immediately.
After a moment, Chen Yi spoke, "I will report this matter. If you see me again in the future, don't hold back."
Chen Yi asked a few more questions about Devil Cultivator's appearance, Law Artifact and his behavior. After writing down the things, he waved Li Yuan back to wait for news.
Only two days after Li Yuan returned to Fangshi, a summons came from Outpost.
Yuanyang Sect gave an extra reward.
The reason is also very straightforward. During this period, Li Yuan has made a lot of efforts in Fangshi, Ruins and Mineral Vein Dao. Recently, he ran into Devil Cultivator who was investigating Spirit Vein Branch, and he even dealt with the person directly. This credit will be recorded by the sect.
There are two types of rewards.
The first is a classic book related to golden elixirs.
The second one is a more detailed version of Alchemy Inheritance.
After the things were delivered to Li Yuan, the first thing Li Yuan read was the golden elixir book.
The book is not thick, but the content is deeper than those Golden Core Preparation Record Li Yuan has read before. The first few pages describe the general classification of golden elixirs, and the following pages explain the differences between different grades.
Golden elixir is divided into four grades.
Low grade.
Medium grade.
Top grade.
Top quality.
This part of the story is not too surprising. What really stopped Li Yuan was the following pages.
It's written very clearly inside.
The Supreme Grade Golden Core condensed by different monks may be very different. Some people have just barely stepped into the threshold of the highest level, while others have unparalleled talents and resources. Supreme Grade Golden Core is far superior to others.
Of course, overall, Supreme Grade Golden Core is extremely rare, and picking one out of a thousand would be an exaggeration.
The main difference is that after Supreme Grade Golden Core is completed, it can continue to change and move up.
But Upper-Grade Golden Core is different.
Top quality is top quality.
Once it is achieved, it will basically be fixed later. Although there are subtle differences in strength and weakness, the whole thing is stuck, and it is difficult to change to a higher level.
Li Yuan saw this and stopped looking for a moment.
I had already set a goal before, and I didn't want to just get ordinary golden elixirs. Now that I saw the explanation in this book, the path became clearer.
The top grade is very strong, but it's still a given.
The best quality is different.
That is a path that can continue to be pushed upward.
Li Yuan wrote down this part of the content and flipped through a few more pages until he had roughly read the entire book before putting it aside.
Then, Li Yuan picked up the second reward.
Li Yuan puts his finger on it, and Panel pops out.
[Equipable item detected: Alchemy Inheritance (complete)]
[Equipment Affix preview: Pill Formation Refinement (blue)]
[Effect: Medicinal Pill's elixir-forming rate increases by 30%, and the elixir-forming quality increases by 30%]
[Preview of permanent conditions: Second-Order Alchemy Art Entry Level, and successfully refined three types of Second-Order Pill (0/1)]
[The current Equipment Slot is full (5/5), do you want to replace the current equipment?]
Blue Trait.
Li Yuan's eyes moved slightly.
Not only is it easier to make Alchemy, but the quality of the pills is also improved. This kind of effect is almost imposed on Dao of Alchemy. Especially if you have to touch Second-Order pills sooner or later, the value of this Blue Trait is higher than many rewards given directly to Medicinal Pill.
Li Yuan did not hesitate and directly replaced an old piece of equipment that had the smallest temporary benefit.
The moment Alchemy Inheritance entered the pen, many Dao of Alchemy experiences that were originally scattered in the sea of consciousness seemed to be sorted out again.
When I look at the medicinal materials on the table again, I feel much clearer than before about which step is easiest to explode the furnace, which step is easiest to disperse the liquid, which step should suppress the fire, and which step should collect the elixir.
This change is not about adding more Dao of Alchemy knowledge out of thin air, but rather forcibly purifying the foundation I already have.
