True Immortal of the Netherworld

A magic formula hit the bottom of the furnace, followed by a soft "pop" sound. There was a bright fire in the alchemy furnace, and the fire was lit smoothly.

Use the method of inner vision to observe the flame spirit in the Zifu in the Dantian. It floats quietly in the Zifu, curled up like a bird returning to its nest to rest.

Silently reciting the Five Elements Flame formula, Yan Ling's body overflowed with traces of earth-colored spiritual power. With a flash of earth-colored light, the flame spirit turned into a wisp of earth-colored fireworks and disappeared into the Zi Mansion.

Xu Yang raised his hand, and the Wheel of Flame Spirit appeared on his palm, looking like a ghost baby with a round head. With a flick of his consciousness, the ghost-like infant-like Chakravartin flashed into the furnace in front of him, and a strange earth-colored light instantly appeared in the furnace fire.

Relying on the spiritual bond with the Flame Wheel, Xu Yang can freely control the Flame Wheel with his spiritual consciousness.

The mana control required for alchemy is much more delicate than that in a battle of spells, and it must be done just right. And this kind of just right mana output lasts for a long time.

A full hour passed.

Xu Yang stared closely at the situation of the alchemy billet and the fire in the furnace, not daring to neglect, and a little sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.

It has reached the critical stage of becoming an elixir.

Xu Yang began to control the flame spirit to wrap the pill layer by layer. As the wheel flame spirit penetrated into the pill, the surface of the pill began to show a faint earthy luster.

The changes in the pills are more subtle. The impurities in the pills are accurately burned out by Yanling, and the medicine becomes purer and purer. This is also Xu Yang's experience in using Yan Ling to refine pills for a month.

One silver streak, two silver streaks, three silver streaks. Half a quarter of an hour later, three silver streaks appeared on the surface of each pill.

A spell was cast in time and the fire was extinguished. The flame spirit flashed and turned into a wisp of earth-colored fireworks flying out of the furnace.

Xu Yang opened his palm, and the flame spirit fell on his palm and disappeared instantly.

In the Zi Mansion of Dantian, the earth-colored Flame Spirit stretched like a tired child after playing, then curled up into a ball and fell into a deep sleep.

A small red flag fluttered outside the alchemy room on No. 23.

"On the 23rd, the refining is completed." Following the command of the competition steward, a steward disciple took away the tray containing five Nether Earth Black Blood Pills that Xu Yang had placed outside the alchemy room. Get it in front of the game scoring elders and watch them one by one.

Xu Yang also withdrew from the alchemy room No. 23 and became the first disciple to complete the final assessment.

When the three elders saw the elixir refined by Xu Yang, they all nodded frequently.

One of them, an elder with shriveled skin, known as Elder Ouyang, saw an imperceptible strange color in his eyes after seeing the pills refined by Xu Yang.

"Five top-grade Nether Earth Black Blood Pills were refined in just one hour, which is a very good result." As he spoke, Elder Ouyang glanced at Xu Yang.

"Thank you, Elder Ouyang, for the compliment."

When their eyes met, Xu Yang felt a little uneasy in his heart, as if he had been shocked by something, and then returned to normal.

"Did you spend too much energy refining the alchemy this time and feel a little tired?" Xu Yang thought to himself.

According to the assessment rules, Xu Yang finally affixed a talisman with his name on the elixir he refined, and sealed the elixir for identification.

Elder Ouyang looked at it and said, "Xu Yang, I made a note of it. This boy can be taught."

…..

The next day, the assessment results were announced. Xu Yang actually won the first place in this assessment.

In a hall of the alchemy branch.

Elder Li said with a smile on his face: "I didn't expect that Senior Nephew Xu won the first place in this internal assessment. I'm very happy to congratulate you. If you weren't a disciple of my Junior Sister Xiao, I would really have the intention to remove you from Mu Ling." He was recruited by the Academy and accepted as the exclusive disciple of the Alchemy Academy."

"Thank you, Uncle Li, for your compliment. I'm just lucky." Xu Yang said respectfully.

"The results of this assessment have been submitted to the main hall for record, and the prizes will be sent to you soon. You have been practicing with me for more than a month, and you have achieved such good results. As your guiding elder, I am also very proud of you. pride."

As he spoke, Elder Li took out a small jade box and handed it to Xu Yang, saying: "Inside this jade box is a "Condensing Yuan Pill" that I personally refined. I think this pill will have a certain effect on your breakthrough to the Peiyuan Realm. Just think of it as a small reward from me."

"Thank you, Uncle Li." After saying that, Xu Yang took the jade box respectfully with both hands.

"There is another matter. Elder Ouyang Cheng, the weapon refining master of the Treasure Refining Academy, has specially asked you to come and talk to him. This elder Ouyang Cheng is a well-known weapon refining master in the Tiangui Sect. If you can get his guidance, it will be a great success. It’s something you can’t ask for,” Elder Li said.

"Since Elder Ouyang called me by name, this disciple must go and visit."

After bidding farewell to Elder Li, Xu Yang returned to his residence.

On the way, Xu Yang murmured in his heart, "Elder Ouyang, one of the elders supervising and scoring this assessment, is the one who talked to me in the examination room. It turns out that his name is Ouyang Cheng. I seem to have heard of this person's name somewhere. , Thinking about it carefully, it turns out that the Sanyang Lihuo Cone that I bought in the market was made by a master refiner named Ouyang Cheng. "

the next day. In the lobby of the Weapon Refining Branch.

There were only two people in the lobby, and one of them was the thin elder Ouyang Cheng who had talked to Xu Yang in the examination room a few days ago.

"Xu Yang, the rising sun, a good name."

"Thank you for the compliment, elder. I wonder what elder Ouyang wants to do with me?"

"There are only you and me here, so I will open the skylight and speak out. During the last assessment, I paid special attention to your refining materials. The ghost black monkey essence and blood, one of the main ingredients, is not pure. Logically speaking, The main materials are not of the highest quality, so it is difficult to produce high-grade elixirs, but you succeeded."

Hearing what Elder Ouyang said, Xu Yang's heart skipped a beat. I am afraid that the fact that I have a flame spirit cannot be hidden from the elder Ouyang in front of me.

"In this case, there are only two possibilities. First, you are an alchemy wizard. Second, you have some secrets in you. Maybe you got some kind of flame spirit by chance. I saw your work in the alchemy academy. From the practice records, I found that you have excellent results in refining earth-attribute elixirs, but others can only be described as mediocre. Therefore, I think you should have some kind of earth-attribute flame spirit."

Hearing this, Xu Yang was dumbfounded. He was speechless for a moment. A look of panic flashed on his face, but he immediately regained his composure.

Elder Ouyang smiled slightly and said: "You don't have to be afraid. Flame spirits are common among high-level alchemists and weapon refiners. I don't know what kind of spiritual flame you have, but it is very useful for refining." The earth-controlling magic weapon has a great effect."

After Xu Yang heard this, he was secretly dissatisfied. This person actually investigated him so carefully, I guess he must have the intention of this flame spirit.

Then he said: "Elder Ouyang has a keen eye, and the disciple did get an ordinary flame spirit by chance. Whatever you need the disciple to do, just tell him."

"Okay, feel free. Just your words will do." After saying that, Ouyang Cheng laughed.

"Master Nephew Xu, sit here and let me explain to you in detail." After saying that, Ouyang Cheng gave up a seat and asked Xu Yang to sit down.

Logically speaking, Xu Yang was not qualified to be on an equal footing with the elder Ouyang Cheng in front of him. But Xu Yang was not polite and sat down gracefully, looking calm.

"Three years ago, I prepared to refine a magic weapon. This magic weapon is called the Three Illusion Pestle. This magic weapon is divided into three parts. Each part has different attributes and can be divided or combined. These three attributes are: Water, Fire, and Earth. I have already refined the water and fire parts, but I have failed several trials on the earth part. The dozen or so layers of restrictions that have been carved on it have been slightly weakened. If you continue to forcibly refine it, most of your previous efforts will be wasted. The materials used in this magical weapon are extremely precious, so I have not forced it to be refined again. This matter has always been a concern for me until I saw you show it in the assessment in the hospital a few days ago. I would like to invite you to refine some of the properties of the Three Illusion Pestle. What do you think?"

"In this case, I am willing to help you. However, I have no experience in refining weapons."

Hearing what Xu Yang said, Ouyang Cheng beamed with joy.

"It's easy to say. I have personal control over the main refining process. You only need to listen to my instructions and assist. I have the refining method of this magic weapon here. You can take it back and read it carefully. Half a month later, we will start Formal refining." After saying that, Ouyang Cheng took out a jade slip recording the refining method of the Three Fantasy Pestle and handed it to Xu Yang.

Xu Yang took the jade slip respectfully.

...

After bidding farewell to Ouyang Cheng, Xu Yang returned to his residence and spent the past few days carefully studying the contents on the jade slips.

Half a month later, Ouyang Cheng's luxurious refining room.

In front of a refining furnace that was half the size of a room, Ouyang Cheng sat in front of it, while Xu Yang waited beside him.

The refining of the Three Illusion Pestles begins.

Xu Yang was dazzled by Ouyang Cheng's wheel-like skills, hitting the weapon refining furnace one after another. While the fire was raging, metal talismans engraved with restrictions were sent into the furnace one by one.

Not long after, a series of restrictions were carved on the three-piece magic pestle inside the furnace.

"The restrictions on the 20th level have been engraved. The 21st level is the threshold for the best spiritual weapons. You are ready to help me." Ouyang Cheng stared at the weapon refining furnace and sent a message to Xu Yang.

"Okay, disciple, you're ready." As he said that, Xu Yang moved towards the center of his eyebrows. Circles of strange earth-colored spiritual light suddenly emitted, and the wheel flame spirit had been activated.

As a golden talisman entered the furnace, Ouyang Cheng said in his voice: "Take action."

Xu Yang pointed at the weapon refining furnace in front of him, and a touch of earth-colored flame spirit jumped into the weapon refining furnace between his eyebrows.

According to the refining method of this weapon that he has memorized over the past few days, Xu Yang cooperated with Ouyang Cheng's method to control the flame spirit to impose a prohibition brand on the Three Fantasy Pestle.

Half an hour later, Xu Yang took back the Yanling according to Ouyang Cheng's instructions. As soon as the fire went out, the alchemy furnace went dark.

When Ouyang Cheng opened the furnace lid, an earthy yellow glow surged out from the furnace. Ouyang Cheng punched a magic formula, the brilliance dimmed, and a short pestle that was only two feet long appeared in front of him.

Ouyang Cheng carefully took out the short pestle with tongs, and then dipped it into a basin of ice spirit purified water that had been prepared in advance. After a cloud of mist passed, the quenching was successful.

Looking at the three-piece magic pestle in front of him, Ouyang Cheng's eyes flashed and he said: "Twenty-one levels of restrictions, not less than one level, perfectly engraved."

"Congratulations to Elder Ouyang for the successful refining." Xu Yang said from the side.

At this moment, Ouyang Cheng suddenly turned to Xu Yang, the original smile on his face disappeared, and his eyes showed a trace of ruthlessness.
