Mortals cultivating immortality and the fate of immortal jade

A wisp of red flame jumped back and forth on the fingertips.

Lin Mu squinted his eyes, his eyes blurred, as if the flames on his hands had no warmth, and there was no discomfort on his face.

After two months of hard training, the "Red Fire Technique" finally got its wish and advanced to the third level.

Lin Mu loosened his spell, and the flames condensed in his hands dissipated silently.

Another two months have passed in a hurry, and the cold tobacco in the Nuanyun Valley has matured. Lin Mu decided to go to Nuanyun Valley and ask Zhang Ruoxu for spirit stones and spirit gathering pills.

Along the winding path, Lin Mu held the jade pendant in his hand and walked towards Nuanyun Valley.

The white mist on both sides of the trail separated automatically as if they knew him.

After Lin Mu walked in, the white mist closed again.

From a distance, Lin Mu saw Zhang Ruoxu standing in the spiritual field checking the growth of the spiritual grass.

Lin Mu greeted with a smile: "Good morning, senior brother, is the harvest of spiritual grass this year okay?"

Zhang Ruoxu stood up and said with a smile: "Thanks to junior brother's help, the harvest is at least 20% higher than last year."

Before Lin Mu could reply, Zhang Ruoxu looked at Lin Mu and said in surprise: "Junior brother has been working really hard recently. In just four months, he has advanced to the fifth level of Qi Refining."

Lin Mu felt a shiver in his heart and thought to himself, could it have aroused others' suspicion? However, his expression was as usual and he smiled and said: "It was purely a fluke. Thanks to my senior brother, the job given to me is relatively easy and I can spend most of my time practicing. Therefore, my cultivation has progressed a little faster than before."

Zhang Ruoxu didn't delve into it further and said with a smile: "I guess junior brother has gone through a lot of hard training."

Lin Mu nodded, stopped talking nonsense, and said straight to the point: "Senior brother, this cold tobacco is already mature. I want to receive the spirit stones and spirit-gathering pills from these four months."

Zhang Ruoxu suddenly understood and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, I haven't sent you spirit stones and spirit gathering pills on time in the past few months. I'm old and no longer useful."

Lin Mu looked at Zhang Ruoxu's smooth and delicate face and said with a smile, "Senior brother, you are joking again."

Lin Mu was secretly anxious. It seemed that his rapid progress in cultivation had aroused suspicion from others. Zhang Ruoxu's more than sixty years of experience can naturally be seen at a glance. Especially since he has similar four-series spiritual roots as Lin Mu, he knows the advancement speed of cultivation very well.

Zhang Ruoxu smiled slightly, took out twelve low-grade spiritual stones and four bottles of elixirs from the storage bag, handed them to Lin Mu and said, "Here, this is your reward for the past four months."

Lin Mu felt a little relieved, and without refusing, he reached out and took it, thanking him: "Thank you, senior brother." Putting the spirit stone and elixir into his arms, Lin Mu smiled and said, "Last time, I heard senior brother tell me what happened to him. I am deeply touched. I think my senior brother is right, I should spend my limited time on cultivation and focus on foundation building. Therefore, I want to quit this job and concentrate on my cultivation."

Zhang Ruoxu's expression changed several times, and then he smiled and said: "Everyone has his own ambitions. Since my junior brother has decided like this, I can't force him. Go ahead."

Lin Mu bowed and thanked: "Thank you for taking care of me these past few months. I am very grateful."

After that, he handed the jade pendant in his hand to Zhang Ruoxu and said with a smile: "I don't need this jade pendant anymore, just give it back to senior brother."

Zhang Ruoxu reached out and took it, smiled and nodded.

Lin Mu looked as usual, turned around and left slowly.

Back in the quiet room, Lin Mu's face was uncertain, and his heart was panicked. He has seen Zhang Ruoxu's suspicion. No matter how carefully he hides it, his rapidly improving cultivation level cannot hide it. Others can see it at a glance. After thinking hard for a long time, Lin Mu couldn't think of any good ideas.

Shaking his head, Lin Mu stepped into the rotating moon space.

As soon as he entered, Lin Mu's worries disappeared.

Six acres of spiritual field, fifty kinds of spiritual grass are all mature. The aroma of the medicine was so fragrant that Lin Mu almost became intoxicated.

Just like last time, Lin Mu carefully collected these spiritual herbs. They were all piled inside the hut, and thousands of spiritual grasses took up half of the hut.

Looking at the tall spiritual grass piled high, Lin Mu felt relieved.

After months of hard work, calculation, and caution, I finally had something to gain today.

This is the capital of his rise.

Lin Mu took out all the spirit stones, counted them, and found that he had thirty low-grade spirit stones and four bottles of spirit gathering pills.

If these things are used in cultivation immediately, they will definitely have immediate results and improve their cultivation a lot. But Lin Mu would not do it easily.

After taking the spirit stone, Lin Mu went straight to the Scripture Collection Pavilion.

Entering the pavilion, Lin Mu walked towards the jade slips containing alchemy materials.

Also in the corner, Lin Mu found a small rosewood frame with more than a dozen jade slips on it.

These are the jade slips for alchemy!

Lin Mu picked them up one by one, input spiritual power into them, and selected the jade slips he wanted.

Just a few of them in a row made Lin Mu look down on them. They were all "The Secret of Alchemy", "Alchemy Experience" and the like. They seemed very profound, but Lin Mu knew that they were not suitable for him at all.

Until he picked up one again, Lin Mu felt his eyes light up.

The abbreviation of this jade is "Lihuo Dan Yao". It is especially suitable for those who are new to alchemy. It describes many of the most basic common sense and requirements for alchemy. For example, the ratio of medicinal materials, the length of refining time, the control of heat, etc.

What made Lin Mu even more delighted was that there were two prescriptions for first-grade elixirs recorded in "Lihuo Dan Yao".

One is Bigu Pill, a first-grade elixir suitable for practitioners in the Qi refining stage. If you eat one, you won't have to eat for ten days.

There is another kind, which is the Spirit Gathering Pill!

This was exactly the prescription Lin Mu had dreamed of. It was just the price tag of twenty-six low-grade spiritual stones that made Lin Mu feel a twinge of pain.

Without much thought, Lin Mu decided to buy it.

I paid the spiritual stone to the old man guarding the Sutra Pavilion. Lin Mu turned around and walked into the Baiwu Pavilion opposite.

Compared with the deserted Sutra Pavilion, the Baiwu Pavilion is undoubtedly much more lively.

Lin Mu came to the counter, placed four bottles of Spirit Gathering Pills on the counter, and asked Gu Chen, "How many spirit stones can be sold for these four bottles of Spirit Gathering Pills?"

Gu Chen smiled and said: "Each bottle costs four pieces of low-grade spiritual stone, so the four bottles total sixteen pieces."

Lin Mu looked as usual, reached out and took out a piece of paper from the counter, scribbled down the names of several spiritual herbs, handed it to Gu Chen and said, "How many spiritual stones does one share of such spiritual herbs cost?"

Gu Chen took it, took a look at it and said strangely: "This is obviously the material for refining the Spirit Gathering Pill. Why should Senior Brother go to the trouble of selling the Spirit Gathering Pill to buy the materials for refining the pill?" He soon came to his senses and said with a smile, "Senior Brother is Want to learn alchemy? "

Lin Mu nodded and smiled: "Smart."

Gu Chen took the note and advised: "Brother, please think twice, I am not trying to earn your spirit stones. To purchase a set of materials for refining the spirit gathering pill, you need two low-grade spirit stones to refine a bottle of spirit gathering pill." You can only sell four spiritual stones here. In other words, you need at least a 50% success rate in refining the pills to ensure that you don't lose money. This is obviously a thankless task. "

Lin Mu smiled and said: "Thank you, junior brother, for reminding me. I'm only slightly interested in alchemy and want to give it a try. If it doesn't work, I'll stop as soon as possible. But if I can succeed, wouldn't there be another way to make a living?"

It is difficult for anyone to see the flaws in such an explanation, especially when others are not paying attention at all.

Gu Chen smiled and said: "I hope senior brother can make your wish come true. How many materials do you need?"

Lin Mu took out four more spiritual stones from his arms, put them on the counter, and said, "Give me ten pieces."

Gu Chen put away the four bottles of Spirit Gathering Pills and the four spirit stones, got up and went to the inner room to get the materials for refining the Spirit Gathering Pills.

After a while, the materials were taken out and still wrapped in a blue cloth bag.

Lin Mu opened it and checked it again and found that it was correct. Then he said goodbye to Gu Chen and headed to Xifeng.

Just as he arrived at the foot of Xifeng, a figure blocked Lin Mu's way.

Lin Mu looked up and saw Ma Huayuan with an angry face.

Lin Mu couldn't help but feel nervous.
