Doupo: I'm just an alchemist

Chapter 49 Refining the Sixth-grade Pill Again
The next day.

Zi Yan came here early in the morning. After finishing the work in the kitchen with Yan Lingji, she knocked on Nangong Wuxin's door.

Having just completed the Heart Flame Body Tempering, Nangong Wuxin needed a few days to carefully feel the changes in himself.

Being aware of any subtle changes in yourself is a very important part of spiritual practice.

As the saying goes, knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle. If you know yourself well enough, you have already won half the battle.

Some battles where you are bound to lose or even die can be completely avoided.

This is another way of saying it: Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles.

In parentheses, the word "dang" here refers to "death".

Understand the strength of both sides and you will not die no matter how many battles you fight, because you can run away if you can't win.

There is nothing shameful in choosing to avoid because you cannot win. No one is born invincible, and everyone has moments of weakness.

Knowing shame leads to courage. After seeing someone more powerful, you should redouble your efforts in cultivation instead of becoming decadent or going ahead to die.

Everyone is born small, but whether or not to remain small depends on one's own choices...

dong dong dong.

"come in."

"Brother, can you please do me a favor?"

"What's the deal?"

"Hey, Master, we don't know which kind of tea is better. Could you please take us to pick some good tea?"

"In fact, as long as it's bought by Zi Yan, I believe the Great Elder will like it."

Nangong Wuxin thought about it and thought that if he were the Great Elder, he would be very happy even if the little girl Zi Yan bought just ordinary tea for him.

Zi Yan heard this and shook her head: "Let's buy some better tea for the old man. That's all he has."

Nangong Wuxin smiled when he heard this. It seemed that the elder’s love for this girl was not in vain and he was a thoughtful person.

"Well, let's put it this way, Zi Yan. In the Monster Forest, you should know some Monster friends who are good at flying... right?"

Thinking of this girl's bandit-like temperament, Nangong Wuxin was not sure whether she had any World of Warcraft friends.

Zi Yan thought for a moment and shook her head. "I know two of them, but they're not really friends. They fly so high and so fast that I can never catch up to them."

"Then can you call them over? I want to take them as my mounts."

Nangong Wuxin's eyes lit up when he heard Zi Yan's description of the two magical beasts.

The bird eggs were killed, but it’s impossible that the bird that can take care of itself was also killed by him, right?

"Mount? Can I ride one too?"

Zi Yan thought of the speed of those two guys and was immediately excited. Wouldn't it be fun if they could carry her?

"That depends on the specific situation. If they are willing to follow me, a sixth-rank alchemist, then I don't think they will reject you."

Nangong Wuxin blinked, Zi Yan understood and extended her hand to Nangong Wuxin.

However, Nangong Wuxin shook his head.

"I don't have any sixth-grade elixirs on me right now. The noise from refining a sixth-grade elixir is too loud."

"Then how can I convince them?" Zi Yan scratched her head. Those two guys were not very brave. When they saw her, they would disappear in the blink of an eye.

"I'll go to the forest later. I'm going to refine a sixth-grade elixir, which will take more than a day. You can go find them then and let them watch from a distance. How about that?" Nangong Wuxin thought about it and decided that it would be better to show his strength first, so as to avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Moreover, the college's admissions team should be back, and so should the family members. As the young master, he must go out and take a look, and by the way, see how the collection of medicinal herbs at the auction house is going.

"Well... that's fine then. Big brother, don't let me down when the time comes!"

Zi Yan nodded, thinking that this was perfect.

However, Zi Yan was still a little worried because she had never seen Nangong Wuxin refine a sixth-grade elixir.

Nangong Wuxin rolled his eyes at Zi Yan's distrust. "Of all the people I know, you're the most out of touch."

"Don't worry, I'm already a nine-star Dou Ling now, so refining a sixth-grade elixir won't be as difficult as before."

Calling Ajing, the four of them crossed the edge of the basin and walked into the Monster Forest.

Yan Lingji, who is slightly weaker in strength, has reached the level of Dou Ling, so the group's speed of travel will naturally not be slow.

After quickly marching for more than ten kilometers in the forest, Nangong Wuxin arrived at the top of a mountain several dozen meters high. He looked around and nodded slowly.

It is neither far nor close to the inner courtyard, so if there is danger, one can quickly return to the academy. The noise made when the pill takes shape will not affect the academy. Although it will be sensed by the strong, it is enough as long as it does not affect the normal practice of others.

"Zi Yan, can you dig a cave at that location that can accommodate five or six people?"

"That little branch there?"

"Ah."

"No problem, just watch me!"

After Zi Yan confirmed the location, she punched out, and the entire hill shook.

After throwing five or six more punches and receiving praise from Nangong Wuxin, Zi Yan summoned Dou Qi wings and flew towards the area where the two guys usually moved around.

Nangong Wuxin adjusted his state, took out the medicine cauldron, and the blue flame illuminated the cave.

More than a hundred meters away, on the tops of two large trees, Nangong Jing and Yan Lingji stood quietly, watching Nangong Wuxin refining medicine in the cave, while at the same time guarding against unexpected factors such as magical beasts that might appear at any time around and disturb Nangong Wuxin.

Although the robe of a fifth-grade alchemist was no longer suitable for Nangong Wuxin, he had to go to Zhongzhou Dan Tower to be certified as a sixth-grade alchemist, so this was the only way.

Besides...

"Master is so handsome, he looks good in anything he wears!"

While Yan Lingji was talking to herself, she also touched Nangong Jing, who was silent beside her, with her shoulder.

Nangong Jing didn't say anything, but her eyes were full of approval.

Dozens of medicinal herbs rushed into the medicine cauldron filled with blue flames one after another, and the optimal temperature for extracting each medicinal herb was presented in the same medicine cauldron.

Every move he made showed the demeanor of a master alchemist.

Nangong Wuxin had already refined the Douling Pill. Although it had been several months since he had made it, his alchemy skills had not changed at all.

On the contrary, as his cultivation level improved, his understanding deepened and his alchemy skills became more advanced!
At the same time, Zi Yan was flying quickly over the Monster Forest.

After flying for several hours, Zi Yan finally arrived at a peak several thousand meters high.

At least one-third of the mountain is covered with ice and snow. The cliffs are extremely steep and covered with ice, making it impossible to climb.

And right between an extremely steep cliff, there is a long and narrow cave.

If Zi Yan hadn't been here many times, she wouldn't have been able to find this place at all.
