Ascension Through Generations
Chapter 201 Enlightenment Pill, Entrusted to Meet the Enemy
Tianding Pavilion backyard
Waiting for the living room,
Zhao Sheng sat on the purple wooden chair at the top, looking calmly at the old, gray-yellow animal skin he held in his hand.
On his left hand side, sat a short and thin old man wearing a short black robe, with a yellow face and a very poor look. This man was looking at Zhao Sheng anxiously.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Zhao Sheng read the prescription in his hand, put it on the wooden table next to him without saying a word, and tapped it with his fingers on the animal skin.
Seeing this situation, the short and thin old man couldn't help but test it out: "Senior Zhao, I guarantee with my life that this recipe for the Enlightenment Pill is genuine."
After hearing this, Zhao Sheng smiled playfully and said calmly: "You must have added the last three elixirs of seven-flavored fruit, lotus root and macaroni in the elixir yourself!"
Hearing this, the old man was startled at first, then his face became full of anger, and he was about to open his mouth to defend.
At this time, Zhao Sheng raised his hand, stopped the opponent's movements, and spoke faster: "You don't need to explain. The main medicine of this elixir is the Millennium Xuanxuan Fruit. Don't you know that Xuanxuan Fruit and Qiweizhi are absolutely not allowed to be put into the house?" Together?"
Seeing the old man's confused face, Zhao Sheng continued calmly: "It doesn't matter if you don't know. You must have heard of Qixuan Sect's Qixuan Absolute Poison. Xuanxuan Guo and Qiweizi are the two components of Qixuan Absolute Poison." Plant the main medicine.”
The Qixuan Sect is a notorious demon sect in the Broken Star Sea. Its disciples are particularly good at poisoning and assassination. The Qixuan Sect's signature poison is famous for being incurable.
Hearing this, the short and thin old man was sweating profusely. He knelt down with a frightened voice and repeatedly begged Zhao Sheng for mercy.
In the world of immortal cultivation, it is common for alchemists to be deceived by using fake elixir recipes, and it is also common for people to find out.
However, the old man was so bold that he dared to deceive a Foundation Establishment Alchemist, but he saw through the scam.
The consequences of this incident were serious, so serious that he deserved to be beaten to death.
Zhao Sheng smiled slightly when he saw this, and asked in a slightly too high-pitched tone: "Where is the refining method of the elixir?"
"Senior, please forgive me. Senior, uh, uh, where is the refining and refining method?"
The short and thin old man was startled when he heard this, then came to his senses, and immediately took out a folded animal skin from his arms and handed it forward respectfully.
"Senior, please forgive me. I'm not telling lies. This prescription is really handed down from my ancestors. If I dare to tell any lies, I will let the sky strike me with five thunderbolts!"
Just as the old man was swearing, Zhao Sheng quickly glanced at the refining method of the elixir, and then felt a little more confident.
Judging from his experience and knowledge, there should be no problem with the refining method, but two key steps are missing.
And except for the three elixirs added at the end, the elixirs in front of the elixir are most likely to be real.
This point, combined with the various alchemy steps, can be verified to be true.
Zhao Sheng was 80% sure that the elixir recipe was genuine, but it was missing a few key elixirs and one or two elixir refining steps.
"Oh, what a pity!" Zhao Sheng sighed inwardly.
From this prescription, we can see how serious the problem of self-preservation in the world of immortality is.
For thousands of years, countless magical skills and secrets of knowledge have been lost or missing in the world of immortality due to various reasons such as selfishness, monopoly, short-sightedness, etc., and finally disappeared from the world.
Thinking of this, Zhao Sheng felt speechless and impatiently waved his hand at the old man, signaling him to get out.
When the short and thin old man saw this, he jumped away with a face full of ecstasy and fled out of the living room.
Zhao Sheng picked up the prescription and studied it carefully.
This time, he tried to figure out the refining method together, and gained a little bit every time he looked at it.
The name of this Enlightenment Pill must be true, but let’s call it the Enlightenment Pill for now.
There are as many as thirty-one elixirs in the prescription of the Enlightenment Pill, and a total of eleven elixir-making steps are written on the animal skin. It takes about three to five days to refine one furnace.
Judging from his experience, the Enlightenment Pill is at least the second level, maybe even the third level elixir, and it is extremely difficult to refine.
After carefully analyzing the medicinal properties of the elixir in the prescription, Zhao Sheng probably knew in his mind that the Enlightenment Pill was probably a "smart pill" that could enhance the comprehension of immortal cultivators in a short period of time.
If this is the case, the value of this elixir prescription is inestimable, and the upper and lower limits are very different.
The lower limit may be similar to the Concentration Pill, which can increase a person's mental power and brain power in a short period of time.
It's hard to guess the upper limit. The best expectation is that it can permanently improve part of the immortal cultivator's understanding.
But no matter what the final result is, Zhao Sheng is considered a "misser" this time.
While he was patiently studying the recipe, a young man in white quickly walked into the living room and said respectfully: "Proprietor, Senior Jin is here!"
"Haha! I don't need to tell you!"
Before he finished speaking, Jin Ming suddenly appeared at the door with a smile on his face, and then slowly walked into the living room.
At this time, behind him followed a middle-aged man with a white face and beardless eyes.
Zhao Sheng put down the prescription, stood up from the chair, and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Jin, of course you don't need it. Come in quickly."
After saying that, he ordered the young man in white: "Xiao Yong, go and make two pots of Fengyou tea."
The young man in white immediately bowed in agreement and quickly retreated.
"Please sit down!"
When the three of them sat down, Zhao Sheng took a closer look at Jin Ming and saw that his hair and beard were now white, with black spots all over his head and face. He looked completely aged, as if he was a different person two years ago.
Zhao Sheng sighed secretly, knowing that this was the result of the failure of foundation building.
Recalling that five years ago, Jin Ming enthusiastically asked him for advice on how to refine Ling Yun Dan.
But after the foundation building failed half a year ago, his whole body began to age rapidly, his energy and energy were almost gone, and it seemed that he would not be able to live for a few more years.
Jin Ming noticed Zhao Sheng's pity, but he laughed indifferently, pointed at the middle-aged man, and introduced: "Fellow Daoist Zhao, this is my nephew Jin Jiang, and he is also the next generation head of my Jin family."
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man stood up abruptly, gave a bow to Zhao Sheng, and said respectfully: "Junior Jin Jiang, I have admired the name of senior Zhao for a long time. When I saw the senior's demeanor today, he was indeed otherworldly. The junior's respect for the senior is like nine days. The Milky Way, rolling..."
Seeing Jin Jiang's flattery and compliments, Zhao Sheng turned his head and gave Jin Ming a look that seemed to say: "Why did you choose such a thing?"
A wry smile appeared on Jin Ming's face. He didn't want to, but the most outstanding member of the family was Jin Jiang.
His apprentice Jin Dancheng, however, has an overbearing personality and insufficient brains, and is completely unable to support the huge Jin family.
Jin Ming shook his head helplessly and said to stop him: "Okay! Jin Jiang, sit down!"
When Jin Jiang heard this, he couldn't help but smile and quickly sat back in his seat.
At this moment, the young man in white walked quickly into the living room carrying two pots of spiritual tea and tea sets.
After placing the teacups and pouring three bowls of spiritual tea, the young man in white stepped back knowingly.
After drinking tea and chatting for a few words, Jin Ming formally expressed his intention.
It turned out that Jin Ming felt that his time was running out, so he planned to entrust the ancestral treasure medicine pavilion to Zhao Sheng, and at the same time introduce him to the next generation of family head Jin Jiang.
After hearing what his old friend said, Zhao Sheng understood.
Jin Ming's family is very weak. The previous generation of the family's foundation has been dead for decades, and now it is all supported by Jin Ming.
When Jin Ming died, the Jin family couldn't hold on to the big piece of Zhenyao Pavilion, so they had to find a backer.
Jin Ming thought about it and felt that Zhao Sheng was rich and reliable, so he should look down on Zhenyao Pavilion.
That’s why today’s visit came about.
After figuring out the purpose of the two people's visit, Zhao Sheng thought for a moment and agreed readily, but he also said bluntly in advance that he would definitely help with small things, but for some things it depends on the situation.
The implication is that he will not set himself on fire for the sake of the Jin family.
Jin Ming not only understood Zhao Sheng's words of "protecting oneself wisely", but also seemed very happy and excited.
From the above words, Jin Ming was sure that his old friend would never peek into Zhencao Pavilion, and he was indeed right about the person.
An hour later, only Zhao Sheng was left in the living room, and there were two milky white jade slips on the table next to him.
The jade slips were left behind by Jin Ming after he left. One of them records the alchemy experience and insights of successive generations of alchemists of the Jin family, and the other records the various elixir prescriptions collected by the Jin family.
This "sincerity" is not unimportant. Zhao Sheng thought over and over again and finally accepted the gift.
At this time, in his heart, he probably had to see the Jin family support a foundation-building monk before he could settle this relationship.
…
A year later, Jin Ming was enthroned and Zhao Sheng was promoted to the fifth level of foundation building.
At the same time, Zhencao Pavilion was indeed targeted by some colleagues.
In order to solve the problem, Zhao Sheng rarely put on his alchemy robe and came to the Alchemist Association's headquarters at the foot of Sunset Peak.
That afternoon, the long-closed door of the Ningdan Hall suddenly opened. High-spirited alchemists wearing Qingding alchemy robes came here one after another to participate in the alchemist exchange meeting held in the Ningdan Hall.
The sun outside is scorching, but the hall is as cool as spring. There are jade tables and chairs everywhere. The alchemists gather together in twos and threes, either talking loudly and exchanging alchemy experiences; or whispering in low voices and spreading gossip secrets; Or engage in barter transactions.
As time went by, there were more than twenty alchemists in the Ningdan Palace. It can be said that one-third of the members of the Alchemist Association are here today.
In a small circle of three people in the northeast corner of the hall, a red-haired alchemist with an eagle nose said mysteriously: "Did you know? Lao Jin passed away recently!"
"I've known it for a long time! Alas, with Lao Jin leaving, the Jin family has no backing. I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain a foothold on Jiuzhen Island." The person next to him answered.
"Who says otherwise! After all, the Jin family is an alchemy family that has been passed down for three hundred years, but now it has declined to this point. The Precious Medicine Pavilion may not be able to survive either!"
"Everyone, are you interested in that shop? To be honest, I am in need of a place to process medicinal materials. I, Liu, am determined to get that precious medicine pavilion." A middle-aged alchemist with a fat head, big ears and a red face He said firmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Bo, who was thin and tall, smiled and said: "Hey, brother Liu, I'm sorry, but I also like Zhenyao Pavilion. And I have already made a bid to the Jin family. If there are no surprises, this matter will be over. It’s done.”
"You Qian Bo, you did it so quickly! Just wait, we don't know who will end up with the Zhenyao Pavilion in the end." Liu Yu's eyes widened and he shouted angrily.
Liu Yu is a veteran first-level alchemist. Although he is a casual cultivator, he studied under Liu Fangzhou, the master of the Alchemist Association and a quasi-third-level alchemist. His status in the Alchemist Association is not low, and he can be regarded as a well-spoken alchemist.
Just when Liu Yu and Qian Bo were arguing about the Zhenyao Pavilion, Zhao Sheng walked into the Ningdan Hall with Jin Dancheng, who was wearing a brand new pill robe.
Jin Dancheng was promoted to the first-level alchemist just a few days ago. He just joined the alchemist association the day before yesterday. Today is the first time he formally participated in the alchemist exchange meeting, so he seemed very restrained.
Zhao Sheng noticed this, so he comforted him: "Dan Cheng, don't be nervous! You will get used to it in the future, just follow me now."
After saying that, Zhao Sheng walked towards the nearest communication circle with a smile on his face.
After chatting for a few words, he took the opportunity to introduce Jin Dancheng to other alchemists, and clearly expressed his intention to protect him in his words.
Although Zhao Sheng has only joined the Alchemist Association for less than ten years, he is very famous in the association.
Not only because he was a foundation-building monk, not only was he bold in his actions, but more importantly, it only took Zhao Sheng a few short years from starting to learn alchemy to being promoted to a first-level alchemist. He can truly be called a genius in alchemy.
Therefore, although he rarely participates in various activities held by the Alchemist Association, he is often the focus of others when he appears.
After introducing Jin Dancheng, Zhao Sheng chatted for a few words and took him to the next circle on the pretext of having something to do, and solemnly introduced Jin Dancheng to everyone again.
The meaning of such a move couldn't be more obvious.
Needless to say, this move clearly means "I'm covering this person."
With a little thought, it is not difficult to know whose hands the Zhenyao Pavilion is now in.
When Liu Yu saw this situation, his teeth itched with hatred.
He had been coveting Zhenyao Pavilion for a day or two, and finally waited until Jin Mingsi died, thinking that the opportunity had come.
Who knew someone would suddenly appear and grab meat?
At this time, Qian Bo's interest was waning and he said: "Brother Liu, we have no chance now. With Zhao Keqing here, Zhenyao Pavilion is not something we can spy on."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth and said harshly: "This matter is not over yet, just wait and see!"
After saying that, Liu Yu stood up, turned around and walked towards the back hall.
"Brother Liu, you."
Qian Bo was very surprised. Just as he was about to call him to stop, he stopped suddenly and his expression moved slightly, as if he had thought of something.
On the other side, Jin Dancheng followed Zhao Sheng step by step. Looking at Senior Zhao who was chatting and laughing with everyone, he was envious but also very grateful.
He was not a fool. He naturally knew the meaning of Senior Zhao's move, so he just said that he was the backer of the Jin family.
For the Jin family, which was in turmoil, this was like a reassurance.
Just when Jin Dancheng slowly relaxed and could occasionally insert a few words, a sharp and harsh voice suddenly came from not far away:
"Haha! Who am I talking about? It turns out to be the famous Zhao Keqing. I haven't seen you for a few years. I miss you so much!"
Jin Dancheng's heart suddenly pounded. He turned around and saw a one-armed young man with a springy face but extremely cold eyes, striding towards them surrounded by a group of people.
When Zhao Sheng saw Ge Chen approaching, he smiled calmly and said: "Fellow Daoist Ge, you can come out of the Siguo Cave before the ten-year period has come, which shows that you must have made great progress.
Well, that’s really gratifying! "
