Five Elements Sacred Secret

Chapter 173: Alchemy and Elixirs

Mu Xiaofeng followed behind Shi Changfeng, and Shi Changfeng talked about some issues related to alchemy from time to time.

Although neither of them was flying, their skills were high enough, so they were still moving very fast based on their footwork.

After a while, Shi Changfeng stopped.

Mu Xiaofeng saw traces of a formation ahead, but didn't have time to take a closer look.

Shi Changfeng just waved his hand, and a gate of light appeared out of thin air.

Mu Xiaofeng took a look and found that it was a formation gate, not a teleportation formation. He also knew that Shi Changfeng's spiritual medicine garden was at the foot of this mountain.

At the same time, Mu Xiaofeng also discovered that although his Luoxia Peak was also called a peak, compared with Shi Changfeng's Mangjiang Peak, his Luoxia Peak could not even be called a peak, it was just a small hill.

"Come in." Shi Changfeng's voice came, interrupting Mu Xiaofeng's thoughts.

After Shi Changfeng finished speaking, he took the lead and walked in.

The spiritual energy is too abundant.

This was Mu Xiaofeng’s biggest feeling when he first came in.

Mu Xiaofeng looked around the entire Spiritual Medicine Garden, a large piece of flat land. Mu Xiaofeng did not see a large piece of flat land outside, thinking that it should be covered by the formation.

The spiritual fields are neat and tidy, and Mu Xiaofeng's spiritual sense can completely cover the entire spiritual medicine garden.

There were all kinds of spiritual herbs here, from the first to the eighth level. I just didn't see any ninth-level spiritual herbs. There weren't many of each kind of spiritual herbs, only about ten or so, even the low-level spiritual herbs, there were also about ten or so.

This place doesn't look like a spiritual medicine garden, but more like a spiritual herb exhibition hall.

"The spiritual herbs here are basically all within the eighth level. You can feel them as much as you want. Most of the ninth-level spiritual herbs cannot be transplanted due to their living environment. But the spiritual herbs here are enough for you to feel for now."

When Shi Changfeng said this, Mu Xiaofeng could clearly feel Shi Changfeng's complacency.

However, Shi Changfeng was indeed not wrong, and he had reason to be complacent. He had almost all the spiritual herbs that Mu Xiaofeng knew, and there were also a lot of ones that Mu Xiaofeng didn't know.

"Master, this place is really a Feng Shui treasure land?" Mu Xiaofeng praised sincerely.

"Haha, I'll leave first." Shi Changfeng said with a smile, and then left through the array gate. After leaving, the array gate disappeared. Mu Xiaofeng's consciousness roughly scanned it, but there was no trace of the array, which showed the level of the array here.

Mu Xiaofeng could feel the smug mood in Shi Changfeng's heart when he laughed just now.

Feeling the strong power of the formation, Mu Xiaofeng did not set up the spirit gathering formation again.

Mu Xiaofeng did not comprehend the spiritual herb immediately, but took out the jade slip that was the reward for first place.

However, Mu Xiaofeng was also very curious about Ren Minxian's ring.

He took out the ring first. The ring only had a simple restriction. It was this simple restriction that Mu Xiaofeng took some effort to open.

After opening the restriction, Mu Xiaofeng’s consciousness swept inside, and the rich spiritual energy instantly surprised Mu Xiaofeng.

Ren Minxian really understands me and actually gave me a spiritual vein.

The spiritual energy of this spiritual vein is even richer than the one he obtained last time.

Mu Xiaofeng almost jumped up in surprise.

Mu Xiaofeng suppressed his excitement. The rich spiritual energy here was too abundant for him to use for the time being. Right now, it was more important to comprehend the contents of the jade slip and the spiritual herbs.

At the same time, Mu Xiaofeng also began to understand what Shi Changfeng had said to him before.

The more high-end cultivators there are in the cultivation world, the more resources will be inclined towards these high-end cultivators. With their strength, it goes without saying that they have the ability to obtain resources.

There are only so many resources in a world. The more high-end cultivators have, the more disadvantageous it will be for low-end cultivators.

Even though there are cultivators who ascend, there will always be high-end cultivators, but if they cannot ascend, the high-end cultivators will accumulate to a certain level, and this level will definitely be much more than those who can ascend.

The more he thought about it, the further away it got. Mu Xiaofeng quickly put his thoughts aside, as these problems were still far away from him.

Mu Xiaofeng took out the jade slip and immersed his spiritual consciousness into it.

Different from what Mu Xiaofeng thought, Mu Xiaofeng thought it was Ren Minxian’s alchemy jade slip, but unexpectedly it was not.

The alchemist who left the jade slip was called Feng Yuxian.

This jade slip was a copy of the original. Mu Xiaofeng could tell from the language on it that it was probably left by an alchemist long ago. Languages ​​must have changed during their development, so Mu Xiaofeng was almost certain that the content on this jade slip was probably quite old.

The opening chapter does not mention alchemy.

Practice Taoism, practice Taoism, everything can be Taoism.

The Great Way is unique, while the Small Ways are numerous. All who practice the Small Way practice the Small Way. Practicing the Small Way to seek the Great Way is the Way of the Cultivator. There is no high or low Way, everyone can pursue the Great Way. There is no good or bad Way either, the best is to suit yourself.

These two sentences are mentioned separately and placed at the very front.

There are no annotations on the jade slip, so I think it is more important for everyone to understand it for themselves.

Mu Xiaofeng's understanding of these two sentences is that the path practiced by each cultivator is different, but there is only one great path, and no one can cultivate the great path. The path practiced by each cultivator is a minor path, and they pursue the great path by practicing the minor path.

And it is especially important for everyone to find the path that suits them.

Then he mentioned the Dao of Alchemy, which means that the Dao of Alchemy is also one of the minor Daos. No matter what Dao you follow, you should stick to your own Dao.

Mu Xiaofeng studied it word by word and found that the insights of this alchemist named Feng Yuxian were truly unique.

Feng Yuxian had been talking about the Dao of Alchemy before, and these insights were new to Mu Xiaofeng.

The difference is that what we saw before was about the elixir, while the first part of this jade slip talks about the way of alchemy.

These were still a little obscure to Mu Xiaofeng, but he still wrote them down. For Mu Xiaofeng now, the direction was not clear.

Feng Yuxian's subsequent understanding of elixirs was also quite profound.

However, there are also some shortcomings. At that time, the art of alchemy was developing. Perhaps this was the best in Feng Yuxian's era, but in Mu Xiaofeng's era, the technology of alchemy had already advanced.

However, Mu Xiaofeng also examined himself while considering these contents.

As for the subsequent refining of elixirs above the eighth level, Mu Xiaofeng discovered that Shi Changfeng's alchemy jade slips and Feng Yuxian's understanding were similar.

I think Shi Changfeng had also seen this jade slip before he was promoted to an eighth-level alchemist.

There hasn’t been much change in the refining of elixirs above level eight.

For Mu Xiaofeng, Shi Changfeng's jade slip and Feng Yuxian's jade slip have different focuses.

Shi Changfeng's jade slips were more helpful to Mu Xiaofeng in refining the elixir. However, Shi Changfeng's understanding of the Dao of Alchemy was not as profound as Feng Yuxian's, or in other words, Feng Yuxian's understanding of Dao was also more profound.
