Chapter 121 Inspiration
The person who walked into the alchemy room early in the morning was none other than Cao Xiaolan.

Cao Xiaolan has been obsessed with alchemy since he was a child, and has almost reached the level of fanaticism.In the Immortal Spirit Sect, the desire for alchemy has been suppressed for many years, and now he finally has the opportunity to realize it, how could he be willing to waste it!Last night I went back to sleep, even in my dream I kept making alchemy.

After waking up this morning, he first rushed into the dining hall and ate a stomach full of food, in order not to feel hungry all day today, so that he could concentrate on alchemy.

Now after entering the virtual refinement room, Cao Xiaolan immediately found that the brother in charge was sitting in front of the medicine cauldron, frowning slightly, thoughtful.And in the vessel beside him, there are many pills that have failed to be refined, some are lumpy, some are paste, and some are black.

Seeing this situation, Cao Xiaolan couldn't help asking Qin Chuan: "Senior brother, how many times have you refined since last night?"

Qin Chuan sighed, and said, "It has been refined fifteen times. All fifteen times have failed."

Cao Xiaolan smiled and said: "It's only fifteen times, it's early! There are five and 20 failures of No. 35 waiting for you! I was learning to refine bone strengthening pills, but I failed a total of 39 times. It was a success! Although the elixir for refining bone-strengthening pills is relatively cheap, and we can plant them on Xianling Mountain, the suzerain is still very distressed, and since then, I have greatly restricted the number of times I can use the elixir."

"39 times? I think I don't have to fail so many times..." Qin Chuan said to Cao Xiaolan while carefully reviewing every step in the process of alchemy failure just now.

Cao Xiaolan didn't believe it, and said: "When I refined the bone-strengthening pill, I had been learning alchemy with my master for two years. And the brother who is the master just started learning alchemy yesterday, 39 times, not too much!"

At this time, Qin Chuan no longer paid attention to him.Stand up, take out the elixir that has already been transformed from the medicine basket, and continue to start from the first step.

Crush, mix, put into the furnace, control the fire...

Although all the previous fifteen times failed, Qin Chuan had already accumulated a lot of experience.At this time, every step is very proficient.

Compared to Qin Chuan, Cao Xiaolan was already considered an expert in alchemy.Looking at Qin Chuan's operation from the side, he couldn't find any shortcomings.A look of admiration appeared in his eyes.

Although the head brother is doomed to fail this time, being able to do this is already considered excellent!
After the alchemy has reached the stage of controlling the flame, every next step must be treated with concentration.Cao Xiaolan knew that Qin Chuan could not be disturbed at such a time, so he stopped looking at him, walked to the other side by himself, and began to transform into various tools and items for preparation.

Just as Cao Xiaolan finished his preparations and began to immerse himself in mixing the elixir to start alchemy, there was a sudden "bang" sound beside him, and the lid of Qin Chuan's alchemy furnace suddenly rushed into the air, and then fell to the side.

Cao Xiaolan was attracted by the movement and turned to look.In Qin Chuan's pill furnace, a light yellow pill rose slowly from the bottom, and at the same time, the fragrance of the medicine was overflowing.

Qin Chuan stretched out his hand extremely sensitively, grabbed the elixir into his hand, looked left and right lovingly, and smiled excitedly: "Haha, it's a success! It's a success!"

The Bone Strengthening Pill was successfully released, and Cao Xiaolan watched it with his own eyes.But he still couldn't believe it.

At the beginning, I refined the bone strengthening pill 39 times, and was praised by the master as a genius.Now, Qin Chuan, who was just learning alchemy, managed to achieve the same alchemy in only sixteen times, which is really unbelievable!
"Brother Sect Leader, you are really amazing! At the beginning, Master kept praising me as an alchemy genius, which made me really think I was a genius. Only now do I realize that the reason why Master praised me was because he had never seen someone like you. !"

In Cao Xiaolan's words, there is both admiration for Qin Chuan and his own disappointment.He is a simple-minded person, and he does not admire fame. If he is inferior to Qin Chuan in other aspects, he will never mind in the slightest.

However, alchemy is something Cao Xiaolan is obsessed with, and he has been praised by his master since he was a child.It is impossible to be easily surpassed by others in the aspects you are proud of, and it is impossible not to lose your heart.

Qin Chuan was very thoughtful, and immediately and keenly noticed the change in Cao Xiaolan's expression and tone.

After repeated failures, he was able to successfully refine the bone-strengthening pill, and his performance was much higher than that of the alchemy talent Cao Xiaolan. Of course, Qin Chuan was very happy.

But besides being happy, he also has his own thoughts.

As the head of the sect, I am responsible for the whole "Yuhuamen".The correct approach is to understand every part of the sect in order to control it, but not to devote too much energy to a certain part.

After all, human energy is limited.If you focus too much on one aspect, other aspects will inevitably be neglected.

Therefore, you can learn alchemy by yourself, but you can't let it take up too much of your time and energy.

In the future, the matter of elixir in the sect will still be dominated by Cao Xiaolan, the elder of the elixir.

If you want him to make great progress in alchemy, you must not dampen his enthusiasm. You must let Cao Xiaolan maintain absolute confidence in this field.

After considering these questions, Qin Chuan immediately said with a solemn expression: "Little lazy, you are wrong. The effect of my refining bone strengthening pill is better than yours. That's because I am in the virtual refining room, so I don't have to worry about failure at all. You don't have to worry about the cost at all. So you can devote yourself wholeheartedly to alchemy. But when you were refining outside, you had to pay attention to the steps and techniques of alchemy, and also worry about the losses caused by failure. It must be difficult to devote all your energy. This It was caused by external interference, not because of your poor aptitude. I believe that if you were also refining bone strengthening pills in the virtual refining room back then, your grades would not be worse than mine!"

Cao Xiaolan listened to Qin Chuan's comforting words, and recalled carefully that when he first learned how to refine bone strengthening pills, he was indeed under a lot of pressure.Not only was the master present, Su Linfeng, the patriarch of the Immortal Spirit Sect, was also present.Every time he failed, the suzerain would frown, and repeatedly told him to be careful and cautious, not to waste the precious elixir.Made myself very nervous.It is completely incomparable with the state of swaying freehand brushwork in the virtual refinement room.

If I had had such a free environment back then, I believe I would have achieved even better results!

Thinking in this way, the lost self-confidence finally gradually recovered.

"Senior Sect Leader, thank you for your encouragement! Actually, I also feel that I am stupid in other aspects, but I should still be able to do alchemy. I will work harder in the future to prove my strength to Senior Sect Leader!" Cao Xiaolan said to Qin Chuan with high spirits.

Qin Chuan saw it and was very satisfied.As a leader, what you should do most is to win the loyalty of your subordinates, not compete with them for the limelight.

Now that Cao Xiaolan can get back on his feet, it is a great thing for both himself and the Yuhuamen.

Patting Cao Xiaolan on the shoulder, Qin Chuan said: "Come on, Xiaolan! Not only do you have to prove it to me, but you also have to prove it to yourself. You are the best alchemy talent!"

"Don't worry senior brother, I will definitely do it!"

After Cao Xiaolan was encouraged, he was very excited and went to make alchemy with high spirits.

He is the elder of Danfang, he can ignore everything and concentrate on alchemy.But Qin Chuan can't.As the head of the Yuhua Sect, besides Danfang, there are more things waiting for him to make decisions and deal with.

After walking out of the alchemy room, Qin Chuan went to the dining hall to eat some food, and then went straight to the spiritual field on the Dalin Peak.

Today, the alchemy inheritance task has been accomplished.After being honed in the virtual refining room, Cao Xiaolan will surely grow into a qualified alchemist very quickly.The day when the Yuhuamen will refine the elixirs by themselves is just around the corner.

However, at this moment, the serious problem of "insufficient panacea" was also placed in front of Qin Chuan.

Even to refine a low-grade elixir, several or even a dozen kinds of elixir are often needed as materials.This is without considering failure.

In the southwestern part of the Kunxu Mountains, none of the mountains, rivers and valleys with elixir belong to the Yuhuamen.It is impossible to meet the needs of alchemy with only one herb-gathering rabbit going out to steal three plants per day.

Therefore, the issue of elixir has become urgent.You must immediately upgrade the spiritual field and plant the elixir by yourself.

At this time, Qin Chuan had all the two elixir plants and 15 yuan low-grade spirit stones needed to upgrade the spirit field.

When he came to the Lingtian, he found where the upgrade formation was, and Qin Chuan filled it with all the things he needed.

I saw the originally quiet and peaceful spiritual field, suddenly the air flow surged in the sky, and the crops planted in the spiritual field also swayed restlessly.At a glance, the green waves of the [-] acres of Lingtian are undulating, which is spectacular.

This kind of vision is caused by the aura overflowing during the upgrade.It only lasted for a while before Qin Chuan heard the notification from the head system: "The upgrade of Lingtian was successful!"

Qin Chuan couldn't help feeling excited—it was a success!Now the level of Lingtian has reached level three, which is the highest level among all the special buildings in Yuhuamen.I don't know if it will have the function of planting elixir like it did in the game world?
Qin Chuan couldn't wait to open the information interface to check the basic information of Lingtian:

The third-level spiritual field, with its own adjustment array, can greatly speed up the growth of crops in it, and at the same time reduce the impact of natural weather changes on the spiritual field crops; the land area that can be planted with spiritual grains has been increased to two mu; and it can also be used to plant elixir , with an area of ​​one mu.

Haha, sure enough!From now on, Lingtian can not only grow spiritual grains, but also has the ability to grow elixir!

Although the area is only one mu, it is already a huge improvement compared to the previous situation where only rabbits went out to steal elixir for a living!
As long as you buy the necessary elixir seeds, this acre of elixir field will definitely bring you rich rewards!

However, when thinking of the word "buy", Qin Chuan couldn't help feeling a little worried.

As the head of the family, he knows best that it takes too much money to maintain the normal operation of such a big stall as Yuhuamen.

The.

Last time I went to Yunwu City to sell some items and earned 150 spirit stones, which was already quite a lucrative income.But after returning to the sect, it costs 18 yuan to repair the alchemy, 15 yuan to start the virtual refinement room, 40 yuan to upgrade the spiritual field, plus 150 yuan to buy various items in Yunwu City. [-] spirit stones, more than half of them have gone before they are warmed up!
The purchase of the elixir seeds this time must also be a huge expense.In the future, when the alchemy room is officially in operation, the consumption of spirit stones will be even faster.

As the head of the sect, I can't relax, I still have to continue to find ways to earn spirit stones!
It has to be said that starting from scratch and developing a poor and vain sect step by step is indeed hard work.However, Qin Chuan was suffering in the body, but he was happy in his heart.

Sweat at this time, for the sake of a better return in the future.Irrigate an evergreen foundation with sweat, for a man, there is nothing more fulfilling than this!
After the upgrade of Lingtian was completed, Qin Chuan rushed back to the main peak and found Su Qianxue, the elder of internal affairs.

Su Qianxue is in charge of the sect's internal affairs and has experience in growing elixir.Naturally, the third-level Lingtian had to be taken care of by her.

Just like Cao Xiaolan's deep interest in faces, Su Qianxue also has a natural love for the cultivation of elixir.At this time, he was in the Sutra Pavilion, carefully studying the book "Summary of Spiritual Valley and Spiritual Medicine Planting" stored there.Hearing Qin Chuan say that the spiritual field has been upgraded, and that not only spiritual valleys but also elixir can be planted from now on, Su Qianxue was overjoyed, and immediately pulled Qin Chuan back to Dalin Peak again.

On weekdays, Su Qianxue likes to wear white clothes, and pays great attention to keeping tidy. She looks like a fairy, spotless.But once in the spiritual field, Su Qianxue would forget all about her temperament and image.In my eyes and my heart, there is only the twenty acres of land in front of me.

Today is no exception.After standing by the Lingtian and observing for a while, Su Qianxue really noticed the changes in the Lingtian.Excited, he flicked his feet, immediately threw the shoes aside, and then plunged into the spiritual field with a pair of bare white feet.

He picked up a handful of soil from the Lingtian field in the palm of his hand, and twisted it a few times with his tender fingers like spring onions. The expression on Su Qianxue's face became even more excited, and he turned to Qin Chuan and said, "The master Brother, Qianxue will pull out all the crops in the spiritual field except for the spiritual valley!"

"Pull it out? Why? In more than a month, these crops can be harvested. There are hundreds of mouths in our Yuhuamen, and most of them have to rely on these seventeen acres of crops for food!" Qin Chuan was a little confused.Except for two mu of spiritual grain fields and one mu of elixir medicine fields, the other lands currently have no special functions.What can be planted if the crops above are pulled out?

"It would be too wasteful to just rely on such good land for food! The ration problem of our Yuhuamen can be solved by buying ordinary fields at the foot of the mountain. Qianxue can turn all of these seventeen acres of spiritual fields into palms. An important source of spirit stones for Brother Sect!"
