I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

Chapter 251: Feeling short-changed, it is difficult to truly teach the elixir

"Ahem!"

In the secret room, Zhang Hao sat cross-legged on the ground, took out pills one after another and drank them, constantly regulating his chaotic aura.

However, the more he recuperated his body, the more he regretted it, and even felt like his heart was bleeding.

This divination not only severely damaged one's vitality, but also cost up to twenty-five years of life. This is simply a waste!

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao yelled crazily in his heart: "Shu Lao, didn't you say there is no problem in predicting a Foundation Building monk? What is going on now?!"

"How do I know?" The tree elder in Zhang Hao's body was also a little puzzled. "According to common sense, predicting the future of a Foundation Building monk, even if you cannot exert the full power of Law Treasure, is enough to help you easily bear the backlash and suffering. The price, the current situation..."

Shu Lao was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking about something.

Zhang Hao continued to ask: "Is this person named Lin the reincarnation of Soul Formation Heavenly Venerable?"

"Impossible!" Regarding this guess, Shu Lao denied it without hesitation, "If he is, I can definitely sense it!"

He was certain that the other party was not the reincarnation of Soul Formation Heavenly Venerable.

But as for why the current situation is happening, based on the knowledge of Soul Formation in Shulao's memory, he is a little unsure...

‘Could it be that the other party is also a lucky person? That's not right. I am possessing this boy, who has the treasure of the Immortal Palace, and my existence. But under this situation, it is really strange to predict that the other party will pay such a high price...'

Just when Shu Laobai was puzzled, Zhang Hao looked at Lin Chen, his eyes full of resentment, like an abandoned housewife.

Lin Chen, on the other hand, pretended not to see it and stared at the three lines of characters on the tortoise shell, as if deep in thought.

"Ahem! Senior Brother Lin!" Finally, Zhang Hao couldn't help but said, "Can you explain to me? What is going on?!"

"Huh huh?!" Lin Chen seemed to be awakened at this time. He turned his head and said with surprise, "Isn't this the price of Tianji's method? What does Junior Brother Zhang mean by this?"

Zhang Hao's expression froze at these words, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "I originally predicted that a Foundation Building monk should not pay such a high price. Senior brother, don't you want to say something?!"

"What can I say?" Lin Chen spread his hands and said innocently, "I'm just an ordinary Foundation Building monk. How do I know what's going on?"

Then, he added two more words: "Besides, didn't Junior Brother Zhang just say that? A gentleman's words are hard to follow. He has already agreed to this matter to me. What do you mean now?"

"This..." Zhang Hao didn't know what to say for a moment, because he did agree to this.

When others make requests, they agree without hesitation, but they pay a huge price in the process. So who should they go to for reasoning?

‘This guy is not thick-skinned enough…’ Lin Chen smiled inwardly when he saw Zhang Hao’s troubled expression.

'But I can't help but give this guy a little benefit, otherwise if he is smarter and doesn't help next time, then I will lose an excellent assistant...'

Lin Chen's eyes moved, a thoughtful look appeared on his face, and finally he sighed helplessly: "Well, since Junior Brother Zhang has helped me so much, it can't be justified if I don't express it."

After Zhang Hao heard this, he felt indescribably awkward for some reason. He was clearly asking for compensation, but now he felt like he had completed what he had promised, but was forcing himself to get more benefits?

"Senior brother, forget it, it was just junior brother's angry words..." After thinking about it, Zhang Hao decided to refuse. At worst, he would find reasons to shirk his help in the future.

But Lin Chen seemed to see through his mind at a glance, and said with a smile on his face: "Are you sure?"

"I……"

Before Zhang Hao could say anything, he was interrupted by Lin Chen.

"If I guess correctly, you have become a Second Grade alchemist, right?"

Zhang Hao was stunned, wondering why Lin Chen suddenly changed the topic, but he still nodded.

"Then have you ever thought about it? Why have I spent so much Spirit Medicine and refined so many elixirs, but most of them are of ordinary quality, few are exquisite, and few are perfect." Lin Chen asked rhetorically.

"Isn't this a normal thing?" Zhang Hao frowned, a little confused, "Alchemy originally relies on proficiency and luck. Everyone can only work hard and depend on luck."

"Besides, at least half of the elixirs I have made now are high-quality. I even get a perfect elixir every few times I practice. I am already the top among Rank Two alchemists."

"Proficiency? Luck? Top-notch?" After hearing this, Lin Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, revealing a hint of a smile.

"Yes, you are qualified to say this. But the real elixir method does not rely on proficiency and luck. Anyway, preaching is useless, let's practice it yourself. Bring me the elixir!"

Lin Chen stretched out his hand and a small pool of water formed in his palm.

Zhang Haoyan was stunned, hesitated, and handed it over.

Lin Chen took the elixir and said calmly: "Nowadays in the Immortal Cultivation World, countless alchemists are pursuing changes in the temperature of the fire, the weight of the medicinal materials, and even the ordinary fine and perfect quality of the elixir, but they are completely negligent. Now, the real key to alchemy!"

"The key to refining elixirs does not lie in the heat, the quantity, or the so-called quality, but in the medicinal properties of Spirit Medicine!"

"The medicinal properties are the key to our alchemy!"

Having said this, Lin Chen raised the elixir in his hand and said, "It's just like your foundation-building pill. It uses century-old ginseng, earth vein purple zhi, and Yunling water as the main medicine."

"Consolidating the foundation and cultivating the vitality means stabilizing the foundation and cultivating the vitality. Therefore, we take the vitality wood energy from the spiritual ginseng and the heavy earth energy from the earth wormwood, use water as the base to carry both, and condense it into this elixir!"

"Therefore, when we are making alchemy, we should pay attention to the vitality of wood and the thick earthiness in it, not the auxiliary medicine, the weight, and not the heat!"

As he spoke, Lin Chen directly threw the elixir in his hand into the spiritual water on the other side.

Immediately, the elixir melted directly and disappeared into the pool in the palm of his hand.

"this?!"

Zhang Hao's expression changed. Before he could ask, he saw Lin Chen reaching into the water, taking out a Spirit Pill out of thin air, and then threw it into the water.

"This is the elixir you just took."

Zhang Hao's eyes narrowed, he took the elixir, and carefully used his spiritual sense to sense the elixir in his hand.

That pure spiritual energy could not be faked at all, and there was no trace of impurities in the elixir. The quality was the only one he had ever seen in his life!

How can it be?

Just by melting it in water and taking it out, you can turn decay into magic. Is it possible to do this? !

"This is a non-toxic Qi Pill?!" Shu Lao's somewhat surprised voice sounded in Zhang Hao's mind.

"Shu Lao, what is the non-toxic Qi Pill?" Zhang Hao quickly asked in his mind.

"Non-toxic Qi Pill, as the name suggests, has no toxicity or impurities, only a wisp of pure elixir energy. It is the top achievement in elixirs!" Shulao couldn't help being surprised in his tone.

"Even in my memory, there are very few people who have reached this level. How can there be such a genius in alchemy in this small land of Lingnan?!"

Lin Chen didn't know the conversation in Zhang Hao's mind, but continued: "See, I just extract the required medicinal properties, and I can easily reach the perfect and non-toxic Qi Pill level!"

"Therefore, the key to making elixirs and elixirs is not the change in heat, but the content of the medicinal properties!"

Then, Lin Chen snapped his fingers, and in the secret room, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth floating in the air continued to flow into the spiritual water!

“Only when you see the properties of medicine from the heat can you enter the true threshold of alchemy, and only when you delve into the reasons from the properties of medicine can you get to the true essence of alchemy!”

"What is medicinal properties and what is erysipelas? In fact, to put it bluntly, it is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth with different attributes!"

"The key to alchemy is the properties of the medicine in Spirit Medicine. Once you see through the changes in the properties of the medicine, you will understand that it is the change of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth! So alchemy, in the final analysis, is the use of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!"

Lin Chen said as he grabbed the spiritual water with his hand, and then took out another Spirit Pill!

Then, Lin Chen's hand seemed to turn into an afterimage, and he took out Spirit Pills one after another. In the end, there were dozens of Spirit Pills scattered on the ground!

Zhang Hao picked up one of them and found that it was almost the same as the one in his hand just now, but it was undeniable that it was a real Spirit Pill!

Zhang Hao felt like he was under an illusion. He opened his mouth and for the first time intuitively realized the wonder of the Great Dao and the mystery of the world.

"Shu Lao, what's going on?!" He shouted in his heart.

I sent a pill and got dozens of pills. Is it possible that the pill can lead to conception? !

"This, this..." Shulao was speechless for a moment. After pondering for a while, he suddenly realized, "I understand, he is using the corresponding spiritual energy in the secret room..."

"What? It feels incredible?" Lin Chen smiled slightly, "I just used the medicinal properties of your elixir to attract the aura of the corresponding attribute in the secret room, and then used the spiritual water as a carrier to manifest it! "

"So do you understand? You can see through the properties of the medicine from the heat, and then delve into the essence from the properties. You understand that the essence of alchemy is just the use of spiritual energy!"

"And only by understanding this, can you truly become a master of alchemy, instead of following the world's methods of seeking fish from a tree, which is exactly the opposite!"

"Please give me some advice, senior brother!!!"

Zhang Hao lost his previous resentment and unwillingness, and knelt down quickly, with a look on his face that revealed his teachings.

"Okay...huh?!"

Hearing this, Lin Chen, who was still very interested in teaching others, paused and suddenly opened his eyes.

I'm sorry you just demonstrated so clearly here and talked so much, but you're such a lazy kid that you didn't even listen to a word of it? !

I have worked so hard here to teach you the most important theories, and yet you ask me for derived technologies? !

I***!

I really fed the dog with all my heart!

Lin Chen took a deep breath, calmed down his inner mood, and regained his calm look on his face: "Junior brother, this is another price..."

Since you don’t listen to the true Dharma and only want technology, don’t blame me for only wanting money...

…

After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Hao walked out of the secret room with a look of pain and joy on his face.

Although he paid for an unknown amount of spiritual objects with the attributes of Yin Yang and Five Elements, he still felt that it was well worth the money to get this alchemy technology.

After he left, Lin Chen looked at the three lines of writing engraved on the ground, which were the results of the prophecy, and couldn't help but have a gloomy look in his eyes.
