Chapter 226: 8 Third-grade Foundation Building Pills
Zhang Changsheng changed his hand seals quickly to adjust the temperature of the burning white flame. He noticed the thickening clouds in the sky and couldn't help but frowned.
Is this going to bring down thunder?
Whenever elixirs of grade four or above come into the market, they will be accompanied by elixir thunder. This is the rule of nature. After all, elixirs of grade four and above are spiritual, and the higher the elixir, the higher the spirituality. When it reaches the legendary grade nine elixir, it is no different from an intelligent creature.
It can even start practicing and become an immortal cultivator.
Among the ten most powerful people recognized in Qiankun Continent, the body of one of them is an eighth-grade elixir.
The foundation-building pill that Zhang Changsheng refined was only a second-grade pill, so it shouldn't cause such a commotion, right?
In the past, Zhang Changsheng would not have been worried. He could have casually set up a formation, which could have been used to not only defend against the thunder, but also to directly blow up the thunderclouds. However, he had not taken into account that it would attract Dan Lei, so he did not set up a counter-formation. He only set up a simple barrier that could only defend against S-level attacks, while the power of Dan Lei was above S-level.
In other words, the barrier alone cannot withstand the threat of Dan Lei.
The fourth-grade elixir is most fragile when it is formed, and a little bit of lightning power will probably shatter it!
Xiao Hei also noticed the rolling clouds, which were flashing with golden lightning, making him feel inexplicably palpitating.
"Master, is there something coming? I am scared. I hope the elixir will not attract this old monster here."
Although Xiao Hei is in the Black Bone Realm, he is still afraid of thunder, an extremely yang thing, and finds it difficult to resist. Thunder is his natural enemy, and it is innate to him.
This is why the Five Thunders Righteous Method is specifically designed to restrain all kinds of natural enemies and evil spirits. No matter how powerful the evil spirit is, it will be weakened when facing it.
Seeing that Zhang Changsheng didn't react, Xiao Hei's forehead was covered with cold sweat. Would this big devil let him resist the lightning for the sake of the elixir? Oh my god, he would definitely do such a thing!
Dead, dead. The big devil refined almost all the spiritual medicines to refine this pill. It is impossible for him to fail.
The timid Xiao Hei immediately thought of running away.
Zhang Changsheng was naturally aware of the situation around him. He was careless this time and did not expect that the foundation-building pill he casually refined would cause such a big commotion.
Never mind, never mind. I can only control the medicinal power of the pill and dilute it into different equal parts to lower the grade of the pill, but it does not reduce the efficacy. It's just that the quantity is much less, such as turning one pill into two.
This is also the method Zhang Changsheng created in alchemy, actively lowering the grade of the elixir without affecting the medicinal power, thus avoiding the elixir thunder.
Of course, this is a method that should only be used as a last resort. If you are well prepared, you will naturally have to refine the highest grade elixir. After all, the higher the grade of the elixir, the price will be several times higher, or even dozens or even hundreds of times higher!
Zhang Changsheng's hand gestures changed rapidly, evolving into ninety-nine and eighty-one different derivative methods. Under his precise control, the originally single ball of flame that wrapped the pill gradually split into two balls of flame, each half the size of before.
After splitting into two balls of flame, the thunderclouds above the formation seemed to weaken a little, but they were still dark and refused to disperse.
"Divide again!"
The two flames split into two more flames, making a total of four flames.
The thunderclouds above the formation were quickly reduced to half, but still refused to disperse.
"Could it be 5 pills?"
This surprised Zhang Changsheng a little. Foundation Building Pills were considered relatively common pills in the world of cultivation, so the highest grade they appeared was Grade 3. He had never heard of a Grade 4 Foundation Building Pill.
Zhang Changsheng had already diluted the original pill into four parts, but the thunderclouds still refused to dissipate. This was a situation that would only occur with pills of grade five or above.
"This place is indeed special. It seems to have a beneficial effect on alchemy."
These thoughts flashed through Zhang Changsheng's mind, and he immediately diluted the pill into 8 portions.
8 small balls of flames were suspended in the air, making a sizzling sound. At this moment, all the thunderclouds that had been hovering above the positive formation disappeared.
Xiao Hei was horrified when he saw this scene. He didn't know how Zhang Changsheng did it, but when he saw a ball of fire split into eight pieces, he knew something must have gone wrong.
What is the master's trick? Is he going to divide the pill into 8 portions? Is this possible? Xiao Hei was completely convinced.
Just now it was worried that Zhang Changsheng would let it withstand the thunder in order to refine the elixir. It seemed that it was too petty and had wronged him. However, if he had no other way, he would definitely let it withstand the thunder.
Xiao Hei can only pray that this situation will not happen again in the future.
"Master is so amazing that he actually thought of such a method to avoid Dan Lei. I admire him so much." Xiao Hei was complaining in his heart, but his mouth was full of compliments and there was no sign of dissatisfaction.
Zhang Changsheng ignored Xiao Hei and concentrated on refining the pill. Dividing the pill into eight parts required extremely strong control ability. There could not be any mistakes in the middle, otherwise all the pills would be ruined.
Looking at the entire Qiankun Continent, only Zhang Changsheng can have such precise control ability.
Seeing that Zhang Changsheng ignored him, Xiao Hei tactfully shut his mouth and waited quietly around.
The surroundings returned to their original tranquility, and a large amount of spiritual energy continued to pour in, causing the surrounding spiritual energy to gradually become thinner.
The spirit gathering formation set up by Zhang Changsheng can gather the spiritual energy within a radius of 100 miles. The spiritual energy here is originally quite rich, so one can imagine how much spiritual energy is needed to refine these foundation-building pills.
The spiritual energy in the air gradually dried up, and as the spiritual energy dried up, this space actually showed signs of cracking. Cracks appeared from the space where Zhang Changsheng was, and spread out into the distance.
Xiao Hei felt the change in space.
"Master, master, what's going on? This space seems to be about to explode!" Xiao Hei hurriedly reminded.
If the space shattered, wouldn't they be in danger here? If the space was torn and they were sucked into some space cracks, they would never be able to get out in this lifetime, or they would be strangled directly inside.
Zhang Changsheng was of course aware of the changes around him. These eight pills were going to absorb all the spiritual energy of this world!
As expected, the spiritual energy required for elixirs above the fifth grade is astonishingly huge. It would be impossible to refine it in the outside world.
Zhang Changsheng did not stop his hand movements, but instead sped up.
"Come into the ring!" Zhang Changsheng devoted some of his attention.
Xiao Hei immediately turned into a black shadow and drilled into the peach wood ring.
The moment Xiao Hei entered the peach wood ring, Zhang Changsheng whispered, "Concentrate!"
Bang!
A wave of air exploded in the eight flames at the same time, and eight foundation-building pills with three golden Taoist patterns were suspended in the air.
"receive!"
Zhang Changsheng stretched out his hand and grabbed eight pills in his hand. At the same time, the space made a shattering sound.
