Chapter 122 Alchemy Communication
In fact, it wasn't just other people who were stunned. Li Yu himself was stunned for a long time when he got the reward for the second-order spirit beast competition.

He really didn't expect that Ling'er could have the last laugh with the strength of just establishing the foundation.

This year's exchange of spirit beasts, the most eye-catching performance is not Yushoumen, nor Tiandaozong, but this little white tiger from Kunlun. I didn't bother to watch the third-order spirit beast competition that was connected.

Li Yu, Zhou Zixuan and Jiang Li were also surrounded by the crowd.

But the others didn't come to look for Li Yu, they were all for Ling'er.

Regardless of men, women or children, facing such a cute and smart little white tiger, everyone wanted to pet and hug him. Li Yu was overwhelmed by the disturbance, and Linger was obviously not used to this kind of scene, so Li Yu could only take it and leave the scene early.

Kunlun Cave, Wang Daoxuan didn't know what to say when he received the news.

This Immortal Dao Conference, Li Yu brought him too many surprises, one after another, even made him a little numb.

This is the first time that the alchemy exchange has never started, and Kunlun has made a big splash at the Immortal Dao Conference.

It can be said that even if Kunlun does not participate in the exchange of alchemists, the current achievements alone have surpassed previous achievements, and are worthy of being called the top ten sects in the world of cultivating immortals.

In Tiandao City, after Li Yu returned to the station, he immediately took the ten Tuomai Pills that Linger had won back.

Although Ling'er won, Li Yu didn't need to be polite to it.

Only if he formed the alchemy first, they would not be short of cultivation resources.

For this exchange meeting, he was still at the right place. Before the alchemy exchange started, he had harvested twenty extension pills, not counting the extra rewards that the sect did not honor. Immortal exchange is once every five years, that is to say , every five years, he can come here to buy goods...

For the purpose of gaining knowledge, Li Yu also went to see the subsequent exchange of refining equipment and mechanisms. He looked like he was facing a big enemy, but fortunately Li Yu was a spectator the whole time, and had no intention of participating in the competition.

In fact, Li Yu was thinking in his heart, after returning home, whether he should refine the weapon with his own hands. Alchemy and weapon refining are actually very similar. He has all five spiritual veins and the ability to control fire. It shouldn't be too difficult...

Tiandaozong is worthy of being a super sect with balanced development of all sects. Beast-monitoring power overwhelms the beast-monitoring gate. Weapon refining and Qingcheng are evenly divided. Even mechanism skills are not much worse than Tianji sect. The competition is basically a competition between Tiandaozong and other sects. This allows some immortal cultivators who lacked knowledge of Tiandaozong's strength before to see the strength of this super sect for the first time.

After the mechanism art exchange is over, one day later, it will be the alchemy exchange.

This is also Kunlun's home field.

In Kunlun at its peak, there were three competitions for alchemy exchanges, and the top ten were all Kunlun disciples. It was a unique holy place for alchemy in the world of immortality.

However, in recent years, Tiandaozong has produced many good seedlings, and Emei has also emerged some excellent alchemists. Kunlun has no way to form an absolute monopoly in alchemy, especially in the past two years, Tiandaozong can even compete in alchemy On the top, it is equal to Kunlun.

To Tian Daozong, losing the alchemy competition is actually no loss.

They were not known for Dan Dao in the first place.

But if Kunlun loses, the consequences will be more serious. Many casual cultivators and small and medium schools, because of Kunlun's strength and reputation in alchemy, will hand over the elixirs to Kunlun for refining. Some talents are good and want to learn alchemy. Those who are directed at Kunlun's name will also pay homage to Kunlun.

If Kunlun loses to Tiandaozong in alchemy, Kunlun's influence in alchemy will definitely decline sharply, and those that originally belonged to Kunlun will be transferred to Tiandaozong.

Among all the arts of cultivating immortals, others are foreign objects. Only the Dao of Alchemy can directly improve the cultivation level and thus increase the lifespan. Even if Kunlun's resources are not as good as Tiandaozong, some immortal cultivators with good talents are willing to become Kunlun disciples.

Compared with Tiandaozong, Kunlun's biggest advantage is that it has fifth-rank or even sixth-rank alchemists. Before that, it could refine such heaven-defying pills as pregnant and infant pills. , It is precisely because of this that I chose to stay in Kunlun.

After all, although Tiandaozong is powerful, it does not have a fifth-rank alchemist, so it cannot provide much help for their future practice.

But with the disappearance of those high-level alchemy materials, Kunlun also encountered the dilemma that a clever woman can't cook without rice.

Without the materials, those high-level alchemists would not be able to conjure the Pregnancy Pill out of thin air. In this way, Kunlun's greatest advantage would no longer exist.

Li Yu often went to Yuxu Palace, and when the head teacher was discussing things with other Yuanying Patriarchs, he also heard a few words. It seems that since the sect's last baby pregnancy pill was given to Jiang Li, Kunlun has been very difficult. A disciple with outstanding talent has been recruited.

The resources of Tiandaozong are ten times better than those of Kunlun, losing the advantage of elixirs above the fifth rank, others are naturally more willing to join Tiandaozong.

If this status quo is not changed, the decline of Kunlun will take hundreds of years.

Therefore, Kunlun attaches great importance to the Alchemy Dao competition in the Immortal Dao Conference this time, and vows to win the first place in the three Alchemy Dao exchanges, so that more disciples can enter the top ten, so as to expand the influence of the sect and attract more disciples. Many talents.

The alchemy exchange will only start tomorrow, and there will be no other competitions today, so Li Yu has nothing to do, sitting and chatting with Wu Tong on the steps at the entrance of the main hall.

He still likes chatting with Wu Tong very much, mainly because he can learn more.

He can even inquire about the gossip about the Patriarch Poxu of the Zongmen, and he is even more familiar with the ancient mysteries of the world of cultivating immortals. There is no question about Li Yu that he cannot answer.

Every time after chatting with Wu Tong, Li Yu can gain a lot.

When they came to Tiandaozong, they chatted all the way on the spirit boat, and Li Yu still had a lot of questions that he didn't have time to ask. Today, both of them happened to be idle, so Li Yu placed a plate of melon seeds between them, and asked He said: "By the way, where did the remnants of the Tianyan Dynasty you mentioned last time escape to? Is it a secret cave?"

Wu Tong knocked a melon seed and said leisurely, "Lingyuanjie."

Li Yu asked suspiciously: "Lingyuanjie, why have I never heard of it?"

Wu Tong smiled and said: "It's normal that you haven't heard of it. The Lingyuan Realm and our Xuantian Realm have not been connected for more than 1000 years. I dare say that most of the Yuanying Patriarchs don't know about Lingyuan Realm. The existence of the world, and a small number of deities, may still have some impressions of that war. At that time, the remnants of the Tianyan Dynasty gathered the strong people of the Lingyuan world, and wanted to make a comeback, but were beaten back by the righteous sects led by Tiandaozong Yes, but even though we won that battle, the major sects also suffered heavy losses, countless strong men fell, and it took hundreds of years to slow down..."

Seeing that Li Yu didn't quite understand, Wu Tong explained: "Actually, our world is essentially the same as those cavernous secret realms, the difference is only the area. The larger one is called the big world, and the smaller one is called the secret realm. Dongtian, these big and small worlds are all floating in the void, and they are always moving. Some small worlds are connected to the big world, and some are not. Those that are already connected may be separated in the future, and those that are temporarily separated may be connected in the future. Lingyuan The two big worlds, Xuantian and Xuantian, are very close to each other, they run in the void according to certain rules, and every once in a while, they will meet together..."

Before Wu Tong told him this, Li Yu didn't even know that the big world they lived in had a name.

In addition, there is actually a Lingyuan Realm that connects with Xuantian Realm every once in a while.

Li Yu learned from Wu Tong that like Xuantian Realm, Lingyuan Realm also has aborigines, and there are immortal cultivators in both worlds, and every time the two worlds connect, a protracted war will break out.

The resources of the two great worlds have all been mined and exhausted, and there is nothing to fight for, but the golden pills, Yuanying, and even Yuanshen of the immortal cultivators on both sides are great tonics for the other party, and they are more powerful than pills. Conveniently, once the two worlds meet, it must be accompanied by a carnival of killing.

At present, the world of cultivating immortals has gone through a long period of peace.

But according to Wu Tong, there is no fixed rule for the connection between the two great worlds. Sometimes they are separated by hundreds of years, sometimes thousands of years apart. Maybe they will not meet again for 1000 years, but maybe it will be tomorrow.

The strength of the Lingyuan Great World is not inferior to them at all. Once a war starts, no matter whether it is the righteous way, the devil way, the Buddhist demon court or the central dynasty, they will not be spared.

And when that time really came, not to mention the foundation building period, even the elders of the Jindan sect, the ancestor of Yuanying, could hardly be alone, and every time there was a battle, even the strong Huashen fell.

This made Li Yu feel a sense of crisis. It is better to improve his strength as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the crisis comes, he may not even be able to protect himself.

Seeing his pensive look, Wu Tong smiled and said, "What are you worried about? Even if a war breaks out, a talent like you is also in charge of logistics. It's good to refine alchemy in the rear, and you don't have to work hard like Faxiu..."

"At that time, I'm afraid no one can be alone."

"It's true. When that time comes, if there are no strong Void-shattering guards guarding them, even big sects like Kunlun, Shushan, and Emei are at risk of being wiped out."

"Tell me, where is the Poxu Patriarch of the sect? He hasn't shown up for hundreds of years..."

"It must be retreating and practicing, seeking a breakthrough. When you reach that level, you are only one step away from being a heavenly being. Who is willing to return thousands of years of practice to dust? For them, the sect is already something outside of them..."

……

Chatting with Wu Tong without saying a word, Li Yu glanced away and saw a Kunlun disciple running past them in a hurry and into the hall where several Yuanying Patriarchs were.

After a while, when he walked out of the hall and passed in front of them, Li Yu stretched out his hand to stop him, and asked, "Senior Brother Han, you are in such a hurry, what happened?"

The Kunlun disciple said with a smile: "It's a good thing for us Kunlun. Tomorrow's third-rank alchemist competition, Tiandaozong actually took out a pregnant baby pill as a reward..."

Li Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, the Pregnancy Pill is a fifth-rank elixir, and no one else can make it except Kunlun. Could it be that someone from the Tiandao Sect has been promoted to a fifth-rank alchemist? Even if they did, where did they get the ingredients?
The Kunlun disciple said: "According to Tiandaozong, they obtained more than ten baby-pregnancy pills from an ancient secret realm, whoever can win the first place in the third-rank alchemist competition tomorrow will get this baby-pregnancy pill... "

Hearing about this, Li Yu's first reaction was that after this Immortal Dao Conference, there will probably be many talented immortal cultivators willing to join the Heavenly Dao Sect, and there are even some Golden Core experts among them.

The elixir that can help condense the Nascent Soul and increase the lifespan by 500 years is fatally attractive to any immortal cultivator, especially those who are in the late stage of Jindan.

Afterwards, he quickly thought that Tiandaozong might have full confidence in tomorrow's third-rank alchemist competition.

Otherwise, they would not have set such a valuable reward.

However, what confidence do they have to win the first rank of third-rank alchemist from Kunlun?

You must know that more than half of the third-rank alchemists in the world of cultivating immortals are in Kunlun, and their strength is far superior to that of the alchemists of the Outer Sect.

Sending the pregnant baby pill to Kunlun for free, Tiandaozong didn't have such kindness.

More than a dozen baby pregnancy pills were picked up for nothing. Li Yu felt sour when he heard it. If he had this luck, not only would he not have to worry about conceiving a baby with five spiritual veins, but Jiang Li, Zhou Zixuan, and even Linger would all have their share. ...

Li Yu couldn't help complaining: "In these ancient secret realms, there are all kinds of good things..."

Wu Tongdao: "That is, including the Tiandao Sect, the alchemy, talisman, refining, array, and organ techniques of the major sects are all inherited from the ancient sects, and even the names of the sects are inherited from others. of……"

Li Yu asked suspiciously: "Since the ancient sect is so powerful, why is none of them gone now?"

Wu Tong scratched his head and said, "Well, for so many years, there has been no conclusion in the world of cultivating immortals. When the major sects discovered the secret realms of these ancient sects, there was no one there. Now everyone generally believes that they should stay here. After passing down the inheritance, I moved..."

Li Yu asked in astonishment, "Moving, where are you going?"

Wu Tongdao: "Moving to a place with richer aura, the aura in a world will become less and less as time goes by, and it will become more and more difficult for immortal cultivators to cultivate to a higher level, just like the sects of various sects. After moving to various secret caves, those ancient sects should have also migrated to other worlds with more aura, leaving only the inheritance of the sects for those who are destined later..."

The predestined people mentioned by Wu Tong are all major sects including Tiandao Sect.

The thinking of these ancient sects is the same as that of Li Yu's old friends who are dying. Even if they return to the ruins and leave, they must leave a legacy for future generations.

I don't know where they moved to. Apart from Xuantian and Lingyuan, there are obviously other big worlds.

Li Yu found that the more he talked with Wu Tong, the less he knew about the world of cultivating immortals. Before the chat, there were only a few questions, but after the chat, the doubts became more...

……

In the early morning of the second day, at the Immortal Dao Conference, in addition to the competition for the Fa Xiu Tianjiao Ranking, the most watched Alchemy Competition officially began.

The level of alchemy in the world of cultivating immortals is closely related to every immortal cultivator. Every exchange of alchemy will attract the attention of many people. Surrounded by people, it was impossible to get through.

On the competition platform, which belongs to Kunlun, Li Yu found many acquaintances.

In addition to Zhao Wuliang, Chen Chen, Fang Jin, Huang Yuanji and others who participated in the Alchemy Competition, there are also many familiar faces from the Faxiu lineage, not only Zhou Han, Chang Ze, Cai Xing, Li Yu, who are familiar with each other during Qi refining Among the seven sons of Kunlun, except Senior Sister Xu, who is in retreat, and Senior Sister Qin, who has never appeared, the rest are there.

Senior Sister Qin is not here, as Li Yu expected, she likes to be clean and rarely appears in crowded places. She only participated in the last competition for the Tianjiao Ranking, and she should still be in the sect now.

But among the remaining five, Li Yu only knew Lu Xingzhou and Hua Yun who had met once, and it was the first time for the other three.

Although the seven sons of Kunlun are often discussed together, there is actually a big gap between them.

Senior Sister Qin's talent is unique, and she is also one of the best in the world of cultivating immortals.

Senior Sister Xu's talent is not as good as hers, but it is also very close to Tianlingmai. Her fame is not limited to Kunlun, even if you look at Tiandaozong, you can't find a few people with better talent than her.

Except for the two of them, the other five people are only somewhat famous inside Kunlun, outside of Kunlun, not many people know about them.

The alchemy competition is Kunlun's home field. This time, the disciples of Tiandaozong from Kunlun, whether they are Dharma repairers or formation masters and talisman masters, have nothing important to do, and they all come here to support the same sect.

Behind the crowd, Wu Tong held a snail in his hand and said to the snail's mouth, "I am Wu Tong, this is the scene of the alchemy competition of the Immortal Dao Conference. The first-order alchemist competition is about to begin. The lineup sent by Kunlun is Cuiwei Feng stated, Baiyunfeng Fang Jin, Jiuhuafeng Zhang Xin..."

In the distant Kunlun Cave, Tongtian Peak, Tianzhu Peak, Feilai Peak..., on the platform squares of each peak, soundproof formations were arranged. Inside the formation, countless Kunlun disciples sat cross-legged and listened carefully. The sound came from the huge spiritual snail suspended above their heads.

"The first-tier alchemist competition has begun. Ten first-rank alchemists from the sect have entered the arena. The first round of refining is Huiqi Pill. No one has finished refining it yet. I will report the follow-up situation as soon as possible. ..."

A group of Kunlun disciples sat quietly in the formation. The location of the alchemy contest was in the distant Tiandaozong. They were in Kunlun, so they could know the news of the scene immediately.

Although the entry fee of fifty spirit coins is not low, the Immortal Dao Conference only happens every five years, and some disciples who value the honor of the sect are still willing to spend this money.

Tiandao City, the site of the alchemy competition.

The alchemy competition was carried out one by one. When the first-rank alchemists were competing, Li Yu watched from the stands.

In the first round, a total of 200 people competed.

Among them, the top ten sects of Zhengdao, each sect has ten people, which can be less than ten people, but cannot exceed. The other 100 people are from Sanxiu and some small and medium sects. Every time the Immortal Dao Conference, Tiandaozong will give them a chance , This also virtually expanded the influence of Tiandaozong in casual cultivators and small and medium sects.

Regarding the result of this competition, the people in Kunlun are actually not worried. Kunlun is still in the absolute leading position in alchemy. There are countless outstanding first-grade alchemists. Many outstanding alchemists cannot get places.

It can be said that the first-rank alchemist competition in Kunlun is even more intense than the first-rank alchemist exchange competition in the Immortal Dao Conference.

In a corner of the stands, Li Yu was reading a book.

In the first-grade alchemist competition, five furnaces of elixirs must be refined in a row. Among them, Huiqi Dan is a must for everyone, and for the other four elixirs, alchemists can choose the first-level elixirs they are good at.

This kind of rule is obviously more fair, reducing the influence of accidental factors, and it is impossible to operate in the dark.

It would take almost a whole day to refine the five furnaces of pills and adjust the rest time. Jiang Li, Zhou Zixuan and the three Emei sisters couldn't stay longer, so they took Ling'er out for a stroll.

Li Yu didn't accompany them, but was studying the notes of the fourth-order formation mage in Huashan.

The complete method of formation actually includes talismans and refining tools, but just like an alchemist does not need to cultivate spiritual herbs and medicines by himself, nor does he need to carry pure spiritual liquid by himself. It can be handed over to the superb refiner and talisman master to complete.

With the formation plate and formation flag, it is enough to set up the formation with hands, but this kind of formation is dead. The truly powerful formation can be manipulated by the formation mage, with infinite changes, and its power is much more powerful than the fixed formation.

In order to control the formation, one must first understand the formation. This is Li Yu's weakness. However, controlling the formation is relatively simple. With these formation notes, he will soon be able to catch up.

What is really difficult is to find the position of the formation's eye in the ever-changing formations.

This requires precise calculations and perfect control of timing. The formation community generally believes that this ability mainly depends on talent, just like alchemy. Acquired hard work is important, but more importantly, it is innate. Alchemy talent.

Fortunately, Li Yu can skip this step. To him, breaking the formation is no different from an open-book exam.

As long as he memorizes these high-level formations, his theoretical knowledge can reach the fourth-level formation master.

Several Kunlun alchemists, seeing Li Yu absorbed in the book, took a curious look at it. The dense formation diagrams and calculations on the page made them dizzy for a while.

This also made them admire Li Yu even more.

Before the alchemy competition, he was still reading the book of formations. No wonder he was able to win the first place in the second-tier and third-tier array mage competitions. Every effort is rewarded. This is what he deserves...

Li Yu was immersed in the ocean of knowledge, and could not feel the passage of time. He did not turn his attention away from the book of formations in his hand until the Kunlun disciples around him made disturbances from time to time, which affected his reading.

"what happened?"

"When did the first-grade alchemist of Tiandaozong become so powerful?"

"It's over, it's over, this time the first-rank alchemist competition, we are afraid that we will lose to Tiandaozong..."

Listening to the whispered voices of the crowd, Li Yu glanced at the huge water curtain suspended in the void, on which were the real-time rankings of the contestants, and Song Zhixuan of Tiandaozong ranked first at the moment.

Li Yu had experienced Song Zhixuan's alchemy attainments before. He once beat all the first-rank alchemist geniuses in Kunlun, and he must have been promoted to the second rank long ago. It should be because of this Immortal Dao Conference that he has not been promoted.

Compared with the competition between the second-rank and third-rank alchemists and the first-rank alchemist, Kunlun is not sure, and the difficulty of first-rank pills is limited, so it is not easy to widen the gap.

However, among the current top ten disciples, apart from one from Emei, Tiandaozong actually occupies six, while Kunlun only has three. More importantly, the top three are all Tiandaozong disciples, which is very surprising .

Among the crowd, a middle-aged man with a jug glanced at the corner of his mouth disdainfully, and said in a low voice: "This kind of small competition, the stage of transformation of the gods will end in person, Tiandaozong really doesn't want any face..."
