Keqing, it’s just cultivating immortality, is it that difficult?

Keqing asked back, this is a problem.

"Of course, there is more to it than that. There is also the issue of your reputation, sir. Your reputation in other areas can be said to be very loud. After all, your image on the streets of Licheng is now much more visible to the naked eye."

There was a hint of teasing in Ye Shang's eyes, and Keqing blushed and coughed lightly.

"Ahem, let's not talk about this anymore."

To be honest, she felt a little embarrassed. After all, once she went out, her image would appear in every corner of the street.

There is no need to mention the carvings and pendants. In addition to the overall appearance and posture that appear in all aspects of life, there are also body elements, such as bun, purple, and the image of a echoing sword.

Have you ever seen a purple stone lion with two cat ears appearing at the door?

It's simply impossible to get away from Da Pu. She doesn't allow her own image to appear. These people blindly worship her and end up changing their methods, which also makes Keqing feel powerless.

Even if she went out in any clothes, as long as she was seen,

It became a popular style in a few days, and the whole street was filled with the same color...

"Doesn't this better illustrate everyone's love for you? To be honest, this is the first time a mortal has shown such love for a city lord and an immortal cultivator."

After all, in the eyes of mortals, many immortal cultivators are unreasonable and are labeled as bullies who are not easy to mess with.

Never seen such beloved, immortals and mortals so peaceful.

“Isn’t this what I’m working for?”

Keqing shook her head.

Immortal cultivators are also born from mortals and should not forget their roots.

Besides, it was the first time for her to see a place like Huangzhou where immortals and mortals mixed together and the class divisions were so clear.

There may be environmental factors. The dangerous living environment leads to the low status of mortals. There is also the factor of the survival of the fittest, but this should not account for a large proportion.

After all, there are other states where immortals and mortals coexist, but at least it is not like in Huangzhou, where mortals are treated as non-human beings and even openly oppressed as a matter of course.

"This is all due to your hard work. It is a blessing for Licheng to have you here."

"I just did it because I wanted to do it. It was for my own ideas, not for any thanks or praise. Is your suggestion just to flatter me?!"

Keqing waved her hand to stop him from continuing.

Chapter 830: Make a name for yourself? (5 more)

"Of course not, but you must also know the benefits of being famous. Similarly, such a reputation naturally includes not only your strength, but also your ability to refine pills. Similarly, the reputation is not only spread in Licheng, but also in the whole Desolate State..."

Ye Shang spoke confidently, and Keqing seemed to understand what he wanted to say.

"You mean to make me famous in the field of alchemy, at least to the extent that the whole Wasteland State knows about it."

Keqing stroked her chin in thought.

"That's right!"

Ye Shang nodded. This was what he meant.

"Only with fame can one attract talents. Think about it, who is more attractive, a famous alchemy master or an ordinary alchemist?"

"Of course it's the master of alchemy."

Keqing gave a decisive answer.

"So, do you have any idea?"

"In fact, all you need to do is make a pill, Lord City Lord."

"Please use your best skills to refine a pill that is the most difficult and highest grade, and even the pill itself is extremely precious!"

"As long as you have one of these pills, you can auction it off. If you make a public announcement before that, it will surely attract the attention of countless people. Your reputation will naturally rise. Are you still worried that no one will come?"

"You make it sound nice, but the requirements are high, and you also need to be able to attract everyone's attention and make a name for yourself. Where can you find such a pill?"

Keqing glanced at Ye Shang and said, “You are dreaming.”

"Hehe, isn't this because I trust you? This is the most crucial part of attracting people."

Ye Shang also knew that not only did the refining time for a good elixir exceed normal times, the spiritual plants required were also extremely precious, and the elixir refining technique and ability were also important factors.

As far as he knew, the city lord could currently only refine seventh-grade elixirs, which were elixirs for the Spirit Transformation Stage. Although he was already a master, it was still difficult for him to attract those famous alchemists.

But if you can refine an eighth-grade pill.

"Don't even think about it. Even I can't make an eighth-grade elixir so far."

The eighth-grade elixir can be considered as an elixir of immortality. It is not the case that one can refine the seventh-grade elixir in the Nascent Soul stage and the eighth-grade elixir in the Spiritual Transformation stage.

Strength determines the lower limit of pill refining, but not the upper limit. Moreover, an increase in strength does not mean an improvement in pill refining ability. The two are not positively correlated.

"I see... If it's a seventh-grade job, then this recruitment is a bit unattractive."

Ye Shang was a little disappointed. Was he expecting too much?

"But it's not impossible."

However, in an unexpected turn of events, Keqing suddenly spoke up and said that it was not impossible.

"There is a pill that fits your idea, and it may even be as good as it gets, and it may even produce an effect that's even greater than its reputation!"

"Eh!? Lord City Lord, you are kidding me!"

Ye Shang was stunned for a moment, then reacted.

"Well, who told you to bring up that embarrassing thing just now..."

"I was clearly praising you!"

Ye Shang was about to retort but unexpectedly Keqing glanced at him and said unhappily.

"If it's a compliment to make a statue of you and sell it everywhere, then you should keep this blessing for yourself!"

“They don’t like me either.”

Ye Shang was embarrassed.

"Lord City Lord, what kind of elixir do you want to refine?"

Ye Shang asked curiously, what kind of elixir is difficult to make and can achieve the reputation that the adults mentioned.

"secret!"

Keqing looked at him with a smile.

"Okay, I'll go prepare the herbs and refine the pills. You can plan the recruitment plan and make arrangements in advance to avoid being in a rush later."

"It may take some time to prepare for the elixir. I am not sure about the efficacy of this elixir, mainly because spiritual plants are rare."

"Ah? Sir, you are still keeping me in suspense... Telling me in advance can at least warm me up."

"That's not necessary. I think this pill will be famous even without preheating."

Keqing was right. The elixir she was going to refine did not need to be preheated and it would attract so many people!

because

The elixir she wants to refine is the longevity elixir!

That’s right! The elixir that increases longevity is what people are eager to get, which is why Keqing thinks it’s okay.

Among elixirs, the Longevity Pill is one of the most famous. Although it is a seventh-grade elixir, it is very difficult to make. Although it has not yet surpassed the immortal grade, it is almost the same.

Not only is it difficult to refine, but even the spiritual plants needed are extremely hard to find. The auxiliary materials are often thousands of years old and are precious and scarce.

Of course, these are not as good as the main ingredient of the longevity pill, the water of life is scarce!

As the name suggests, the water of life can increase human lifespan, break the limit of lifespan, and condense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

No one knows how it was born, but its effect is known to everyone.

As we all know, human life span is determined by heaven. Unless one breaks through a realm, no one can break through the life span determined by heaven.

However, there are always some natural treasures in the world that condense thousands of essences, break through the laws of heaven and earth, and have the effect of increasing people's lifespan.

The water of life is one of them, of course people are more accustomed to calling it the water of longevity.

It was originally called the Water of Life because someone discovered that this water could cure even the most serious hidden injuries. Even if half of the heart is missing, just one drop can revive the dead and bring the person back from the jaws of the King of Hell.

As long as the quantity is sufficient, it can even make people return to youth and eliminate hidden injuries.

But later, after repeated use, people discovered the most important quality of the water of life, which is longevity!

Needless to say, what happened afterwards was full of war and unrest as long as it involved Yanshou.

However, the water of life is different from the fruit of longevity. No one knows where it comes from or what the conditions for its production are.

All we know is that it looks like jelly, its color is bright aqua blue, and it reflects light green in the sun, like colored glaze, exuding a strong and cold breath.

If you sniff it carefully, you can also smell the fragrance of flowers and fruits.

Don’t ask why Keqing knows this, because her space already has it, and this was discovered during the previous space changes.

"What an accident... Is there anything more important than prolonging life?"

Keqing didn’t know what this was before, but after checking the classics, she found out that this was the legendary longevity water.

As for why it came, it was naturally found in a small jellyfish's nest in a tree hole in Jianmu.

I don’t know how the little jellyfish managed to build a small nest on the Jianmu.

It is inlaid with various luminous objects, sparkling, and the nest is like a woodpecker's cave, but the internal environment is about seven or eight cubic meters.

Keqing was wondering why there seemed to be something shining on Jianmu. When she got closer, she found that the shining things were actually the sparkling gems in the nest.

There is a small pool of blue water inside, about two meters wide and one meter deep, with steam rising from it, and small jellyfish are swimming leisurely in it, looking like they are taking a hot spring bath/sleeping?

Don't get me wrong, the so-called life-extending water is not the jellyfish's bath water, but her saliva!

That’s right, there was one time when Keqing happened to see the little jellyfish running over to watch when she was refining the elixir, and finally fell asleep on her shoulder, snoring and drooling.

At first, Keqing wanted to use the Dust Purification Technique to clean it up, but suddenly she found that the saliva was a little unusual, so she collected it out of curiosity. As a result, she found out that it was actually the water of longevity.

I can only say that it was a coincidence.

And in Keqing's eyes, the little jellyfish looked even more mysterious and strange.

Chapter 831: Are we playing house? (1 more)

"In addition to the longevity water, what else is needed for alchemy is... let me think about it."

Returning to the space, he took off the peach blossom hairpin, and first changed the alchemy furnace that served as a pendant back to its original shape.

With a snap of her fingers, Keqing lit a flame, scooped a spoonful of spiritual spring water and led it into the alchemy furnace to warm it up.

The longevity elixir is not easy to refine and is extremely difficult. She has no experience, so every step must be done with extreme care. Both the advance preparation and the processing of medicinal materials must be done meticulously and accurately without any mistakes.

The essence of alchemy is purification, while at the same time using medicinal materials to amplify the efficacy of the medicine, and through various combinations of main and auxiliary medicines, various reactions are formed.

The longevity water can prolong life, and when it is refined into a pill, its ability to prolong life can be increased several times.

The required medicinal materials also need to be carefully selected.

"Crane's cry grass is a fire-attributed medicinal herb. As an auxiliary medicine, it can use the fire spirit energy to activate the longevity water, turning it from liquid to gas, making it easier to combine with other medicinal effects."

"If we want to stimulate its activity, ten thousand years is too long, but a thousand years has limited ability. We need medicine that is about seven thousand years old, which is just enough. It just so happens that we have it in the Spirit Plant Garden."

Keqing calculated carefully.

Fortunately, when I opened up the spiritual plant garden, I had anticipated that there would need to be medicinal plants of every age. The longer the age of the medicine is not necessarily better. Therefore, even for the same medicinal materials, I had specifically asked Man Ruo to cultivate them in different accelerated areas.

Now, isn't that a great help?

Although under normal circumstances, thousand-year-old elixirs can be compatible with lower-level ones, that will not only cause loss of medicinal power, but will also have an impact on the elixir.

However, most alchemists would not care. After all, they are lucky to get a thousand-year-old spiritual plant. No matter how poor its ability is, it can be made up with the medicinal effect.

But Keqing doesn't want to be like everyone else.

"The Dark Spirit Stone is the condensation of the dark energy of heaven and earth. It can be used to neutralize the vitality of the Longevity Water and suppress its

Life force. "

Keqing thought about it and realized that it was right below Jianmu.

As the so-called heaven and earth have yin and yang, yin groups six nine four; nine three six] one three five yang, so it is the way of balance. Most of the effects of longevity water have turned into life force, so its longevity property has been wasted.

The Nether Spirit Stone can restore the yin of the Longevity Water, thereby guiding it to achieve a balance and promoting the effect of prolonging life.

The essence of the Netherworld Air is a superior force to the Death Air. Flowers, plants, birds and animals in this space wither and flourish, are born and die, and cycle through life and death. This thing also happens to exist.
