How many times does a normal person have to die in the world of cultivation?

After leaving the Qiankun Realm, Li Xiaoxiao couldn't wait to find the alchemy room.

The ship was too big and no one knew where the alchemy room was after asking many people. Finally, Li Xiaoxiao saw a young man wearing Lu family work clothes at the bow of the ship and waved to him hurriedly.

Shang Shuo saw someone waving at him and hurried forward: "Excuse me, sir, what can I do for you?"

Quite polite, Li Xiaoxiao thought.

He immediately asked where the alchemy room was.

After hearing what Shang Shuo said, his official attitude towards Li Xiaoxiao became much more sincere, and his eyes were full of admiration: "Sir, please come this way."

He actually led the way himself.

Li Xiaoxiao enjoyed his success. He came to the hall again. There were not many people inside, just two or three. The two of them walked to a red wooden door that was two people wide.

Shang Shuo pulled the wood parallel to each other and motioned Li Xiaoxiao to walk in.

Li Xiaoxiao stepped in without hesitation, Shang Shuo followed closely behind, and then closed the wooden door.

Two breaths later, the scene in front of Li Xiaoxiao changed. It was a huge stone chamber with three small rooms inside.

Shang Shuo brought Li Xiaoxiao to the innermost room. The stone door was not closed and the scene inside was clearly visible.

There are all kinds of exquisite equipment inside, and even an alchemy furnace is thoughtfully prepared.

This alchemy furnace is as tall as a man and is black all over. It has not been used yet, so it looks like it is made of ordinary black iron.

However, according to Shang Shuo, this is not ordinary black iron, but is made of Beichen Small Emperor Iron. It has fast preheating, high temperature resistance, and is easy to make pills.

The pestle on the side is made of thousand-year-old cold iron. Its surface is as smooth as a mirror and emits a faint medicinal fragrance.

You can feel the traces of it grinding countless precious medicinal materials.

There are also rows of neatly arranged jade bottles, crystal clear, with all kinds of wonderful patterns carved on the bottles, and each bottle is carved vividly.

The silver spoon used to stir the medicine is shiny and has a fine texture.

Some spiritual herbs can only touch silver, some can only touch jade or gold. It's really well prepared.

I think it must be very expensive!

As expected, Shang Shuo pointed to a cave entrance and said, "This is where you put the spirit stones. The minimum amount is 30 low-grade spirit stones per day. To avoid distraction when refining the elixir, I suggest you put more at one time. The main thing is that the cost of the earth fire increases according to the length of time it is used, low-grade spirit stones per hour.

"Earth fire is also divided into upper, middle and lower grades, namely the 100th-ranked Zhengyang Divine Fire, the 79th-ranked Yangjin Fire, and the 58th-ranked Tianyou Fire. The prices are ten, twenty and thirty respectively.

"When the elixir is finished, if the spirit stones are not used up, you can take them back."

Well, it is impossible to refine the elixir without thousands of spirit stones.

No wonder elixirs are so expensive.

But it may also be related to the address. Being able to set aside an off-site space on the ship, a higher fee seems acceptable.

Li Xiaoxiao nodded in understanding. Shang Shuo was about to leave when Li Xiaoxiao threw him three spirit stones as a fee for his errands.

Shang Shuo took it, bowed and left.

Finally, she was the only one left. Li Xiaoxiao closed the door, opened the restriction, first put the things inside into a new storage bag, and then released the bronze tripod.

The bronze tripod gradually grew from the size of a bowl to the size of an alchemy furnace.

It had been a long time since he had made pills, so Li Xiaoxiao first practiced his hands and practiced how to peel the skin, take the meat, and collect the juice without wasting the raw materials.

She raised her hands, suspended the items in the air, and used her mind to unravel them. After she was done, she began to refine them more finely using the Sanyang Fire Escape she got from Tong Bo.

San Yang Fire Escape ranks 47th on the Hundred Fire List, so you can imagine how incredibly popular it is. Not surprisingly, Li Xiaoxiao destroyed one portion of the herbs because she failed to control the temperature well. It was not until she destroyed the second and third portions that she got her feeling back.

After quenching, they were thrown into the bronze tripod all at once, without regard to the order, just like the vegetables being stewed in a big pot after being patiently washed.

The spiritual treasure in the bronze was very busy. Li Xiaoxiao was only responsible for washing the vegetables, and he was responsible for the rest of the cooking and the taste.

Li Xiaoxiao didn't care about the fire below, the bronze tripod would automatically sense the temperature anyway.

While the bronze cauldron was refining the elixir, Li Xiaoxiao continued to use his mental power to wash the remaining materials.

By the time of tempering, her fire sense had reached perfection, so she didn't waste it.

Even after opening seven furnaces, it still took Li Xiaoxiao 49 days to achieve a 100% success rate in making pills.

When the first furnace was completed on the seventh day, she was the first to throw the pills into the Qiankun Realm for Wang Pan to use.

Wang Pan, who was almost dying, immediately became energetic after taking one pill.

Li Xiaoxiao gave her a whole bottle, each bottle contained thirty pills, and each pill could extend her life by 20 years.

Wang Pan did not let Li Xiaoxiao down and publicized it widely in the Qiankun World.

During those days, Li Xiaoxiao's admiration for him never stopped.

Because there is no family planning and people have enough food and drink, people have many children, so there are more and more people in the Qiankun Realm now.

As a modern person, Ling Nanyan naturally strictly guarded against the issue of close relatives marrying, and even made a family tree for them, so that they could clearly know who was a close relative.

At first many people didn’t understand, because in their eyes it was very normal for cousins ​​to get married, so Ling Nanyue specially gathered everyone together and gave them a lesson.

The content is genetics, mainly telling them the dangers of offspring from close relatives marrying, as well as the issue of whether to have a boy or a girl.

Although the main focus is on gender equality, men still have the upper hand in the labor force, so more people still want to have sons, and women have a stronger desire to have sons.

Then I told them about genetics, and realized that what is passed down from generation to generation is never the surname, but the female gender!

After the sperm and egg combine to form a fertilized egg, the mitochondria in the sperm will degrade and disappear. Therefore, mitochondrial DNA will only be inherited from the mother.

Therefore, whether it is a daughter or a son, the mitochondrial DNA in their bodies is 100% derived from the mother.

At the same time, only daughters have the same mechanism to pass it on to the next generation, and this mode of transmission is called "maternal inheritance."

That is to say, if a woman has only sons or no children, her personal mitochondrial vein will die with her. (This knowledge point comes from Baidu, don't argue, find Baidu if you want to argue)

What men pass on is only the surname given to them by the matriarchal society.

In the past, a woman would be with several men, so it would be impossible to tell whose child it was. However, it was 100% certain that the child was female, so in order to identify whose child it was, the child was given the father's surname.

But later it changed after evolution, and women became the objects of exploitation and oppression.

People gradually forget the meaning of their surnames.

After that class, the idea of ​​favoring boys over girls was completely shattered.

On the contrary, women want to have a daughter in order to prevent their genes from disappearing.

well, let's get back to business.

Li Xiaoxiao was still in good spirits after refining the elixir, unlike the usual alchemists who looked listless after refining the elixir.

This is mainly because the alchemist needs to use mental power for every step in order to complete the elixir. This will happen if the mental power is over-used, just like a young man staying up all night in an Internet cafe for three days and three nights.

Needless to say, the alchemist's requirements for mental strength are very high. If the mental strength is even slightly insufficient, the elixir will definitely not work.

But some people will force themselves to use their mental energy. This is like the mentality of gambling. They think they are just a little bit away from success and they just need to hold on a little longer. However, this excessive loss of mental energy cannot be compensated later.

Therefore, an alchemist with a good teacher's guidance would not overdraw his mental strength to avoid causing irreversible damage, even if he had to bear the pain of destroying a furnace of pills.

One can imagine the identity and status of alchemists in this land.

Therefore, when Shang Shuo heard that Li Xiaoxiao wanted an alchemy room, his attitude immediately changed, because alchemist is a profession worthy of respect.

Li Xiaoxiao took back the extra spirit stones, and the stone door opened automatically. Because no earth fire was used, the cost required was very little.

After putting the things in the storage bag back in place, Li Xiaoxiao stepped out of the stone chamber and was surprised to see that the other two doors were closed.

She didn't expect that someone would choose to make elixirs on the boat like her. If it weren't for the bronze tripod, she wouldn't have taken such a risk.

However, only relatively low-level elixirs can be refined on the ship, and it would be bad if it caused celestial phenomena.

The longevity elixir she refined this time was only a ground-level elixir recipe, and the age of the ingredients was not perfect, so even the bronze cauldron could only produce a high-level elixir, with five obvious lines on the elixir.

As for this pill recipe, it is just a piece of shit in the eyes of others. Others who want to refine this pill to prolong life need to use dozens of kinds of spiritual flowers and herbs as the base.

Rather than saying that Li Xiaoxiao created a completely new pill recipe, it would be more accurate to say that the bronze tripod is so awesome.

Pills are generally divided into nine grades, with the quality decreasing from grade one to grade nine.

The first-grade elixir is of the lowest grade, with a very light medicinal flavor and a certain healing or amplifying effect. It is usually used for ordinary treatment or to enhance the attributes of the cultivator. However, for some cultivators who are new to the path of cultivation, it also plays a role that cannot be ignored.

The second-grade elixir is stronger than the first-grade elixir, but the medicinal taste is still very thin, and the medicinal effect is significantly improved. It is suitable for cultivators to repair their bodies and souls. It has a certain effect on improving the body and cultivation of cultivators.

The third-grade elixir begins to have some special effects. The efficacy is better than the second-grade elixir, there are more types, and the price is higher. It is used to repair the body and soul power when injured. When you are not injured, eating it can speed up the speed of cultivation and enhance physical fitness.

The value of fourth-grade elixirs is even higher. They are filled with medicinal fragrance and energy fluctuations. The higher the quality, the stronger the fragrance.

In addition to repairing the body and soul power, some elixirs can also improve the user's qualifications?

The significant medicinal effect means that the difficulty of refining is greatly increased.

Fifth-grade elixirs already belong to the category of high-level elixirs. They possess unique and powerful effects and are often only found in some large sects or forces.

Sixth-grade elixirs are even rarer, and their efficacy is enough to allow cultivators to make great progress in a short period of time. If the user has good qualifications, it is possible to break through to a new realm.

Ordinary people can even embark on the path of cultivation after consuming it? Of course, this is all a legend. Currently, no one has allowed ordinary people to use this hard-to-find elixir.

Moreover, Li Xiaoxiao seriously doubted whether this pill would explode like a pressure cooker immediately if taken by a mortal.

The seventh-grade elixir is a rare treasure. It has preliminary intelligence and can escape from the hands of the alchemist. Only the top alchemists can refine it. Its efficacy is strong enough to change a person's destiny.

Nowadays, there are only a few people who can make seventh-grade elixirs.

The eighth-grade elixir is a legendary existence. It is said that it has strong intelligence and will even fight with others in an attempt to escape.

After taking it, one can gain incredible power and even resonate with heaven and earth.

Li Xiaoxiao thought it was an exaggeration. If she wanted to believe it was true, she should see it with her own eyes first.

The ninth-grade elixir is the pinnacle of elixirs. It is said to have intelligence comparable to that of humans, and can transform into human or animal form. Depending on its quality, it is divided into precious elixir, mysterious elixir, golden elixir, etc.

It has incredible effects and can allow people to reach the ultimate state instantly, but the difficulty of refining the ninth-grade elixir is almost unimaginable. Just the first step of finding materials may take hundreds or even thousands of years.

From ancient times to the present, there has only been one person who has been able to successfully refine the ninth-grade elixir, and he is known as the "Elixir God". His whereabouts are currently unknown, and some people speculate that he may have passed away.

The recipe for the ninth-grade elixir was lost with the disappearance of the God of Alchemy, and it became a treasure coveted by countless alchemists.

If he didn't rely on the bronze cauldron, Li Xiaoxiao could at most refine fourth-grade elixirs of poor quality.

After all, alchemy requires talent, wealth and 98% sweat.

Because Li Xiaoxiao did not start learning from the basics, he immediately had Master Han's alchemy experience package.

That's why she thought alchemy was okay. Now with the bronze tripod as a cheat, Li Xiaoxiao felt that alchemy was too easy for her.

Besides, she didn't make the elixir for wealth or fame, as long as it was enough for her own use.

Mainly focus on self-production and self-sales.

Wait until she returns to the cabin and enters the Qiankun world again.

She gave the remaining longevity pills to Che Yin, saying that they could be distributed to those who made significant contributions.

When this news spread, it caused an instant sensation. No one expected that the goddess still remembered them and was willing to reward them.

Then everyone went to the small temple to worship. Needless to say, Niu Niu was so happy that he grinned and said to Meili, "Meili, your luck is really amazing."

small theater:

"Charm, your luck is really amazing." Niu Niu admires Starry Eyes

(??w?｀)

Charming and arrogant raised her chin: "How is it? One hundred million lives."

╭(?_＞?)╮

The 100 million lives named said calmly: "What?"

╮(￣⊿￣)╭

Charm's eyebrows almost flew up after hearing this, "How many times has the host died since he increased his luck?" (???????)

"three times."?_?

"Yes, he died three times in a short period of time." Charm emphasized. ?????????

Niu Niu was puzzled: "Isn't it unlucky to die three times?"????

Charm rolled his eyes at him: "Who says death is bad luck? Don't you see what the host has gained?" (?????)

Niu Niu came back to his senses and said excitedly: "She got three max-level skills, and the gift packs everyone gave her. She has only used the gift packs in the main hall so far," \\( ?w ?)/

"Your brain is finally working faster."╭(?_＞?)╮

"What do you want to express?" Niu Niu was just praised, so he was embarrassed to ask loudly, so he could only ask quietly. ("▔□▔)

Charm: "..." Why do people insist that she speak so clearly? (o?Д`o)ノ

At this time, One Hundred Million Lives said, "She wanted to say that he and I are a perfect match, and we are not the mortal enemies that everyone says we are."

(??)

Meili blushed and immediately shut up. ?(? ???w??? ?)?

Only Niu Niu kept asking: Why why why why…………?(???????)?

One hundred million lives: ?(? ???w??? ?)?

"Hey, hey, hey...why aren't you talking?" (o﹏o?)
