Lin Tian was a little surprised. He never thought that the Medicine Codex was the supreme ancient scripture of the Alchemist Faction. At the same time, he thought of something else. What was the origin of the mysterious iron sword at the bottom of his consciousness? It was just a ripple, but it turned into the supreme ancient scripture of the Alchemist Faction. This was really shocking.
"This sword …"
Lin Tian was shocked.
He tried to communicate with the divine sword at the bottom of his consciousness, but it did not move at all.
Lin Tian finally gave up. It seemed that the divine sword was not under his control.
"Forget it. It's fine as long as it's harmless."
He shook his head.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Tian closed his eyes again and focused on the Medicine Codex. He had heard Bai Qiu talk about the various specialties of the Alchemist Faction, and it had piqued his interest. Now that he had come into contact with the supreme ancient scripture of the Alchemist Faction by chance, he naturally could not ignore it.
In an instant, invisible scripture runes appeared in his sea of consciousness.
The Medicine Codex was a precious ancient scripture of alchemy. It was divided into the Pill Forging section and the Secret Technique section.
The Pill Forging section contained endless pill recipes and pill forging techniques, from the lowest first-grade Baodan to the ninth-grade high-grade Baodan. It had all kinds of pill recipes, including healing, dissolving poison, transforming, temporarily increasing one's cultivation, and killing. At the same time, it also recorded the supreme pill recipe that could extend one's life by 100,000 years, called the Emperor Pill.
{
"The Emperor Pill can allow a withered Chaotic Realm expert to live for another 100,000 years!"
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
He had heard of this from Bai Qiu, but seeing it in the Medicine Codex with his own eyes, he was still very surprised. He held his breath and scanned through the Monarch Pill Alchemy Manual. Then, he was speechless. The Alchemy Manual mentioned more than a thousand kinds of Pill Forging materials, and almost every one of them was a rare Saint Artifact that was almost impossible to refine.
However, Lin Tian was soon relieved. If this Baodan was easy to refine, it would be abnormal.
He shifted his gaze to the secret arts section of the Medicine Encyclopedia. There were many mystical secret arts recorded in it, and the "Refining Fire Seal" that he had used earlier was one of them. Lin Tian carefully looked through it. He discovered that the several core secret techniques were truly terrifying. They were the Nine Nether Scattering Poison and the Pill Fire Burning the Heavens. They were comparable to ancient Empyrean skills.
"This … Bai Qiu, that girl, also said that the strength of alchemists is not that great. Is that true?"
Lin Tian was surprised.
According to the last few ancient techniques in the secret technique chapter, its might could be said to be extremely terrifying. How could it be weak?
"Forget it, I'll ask again when I have time."
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
He continued reading and found that the alchemists and array manipulators were not much different. They also had a clear division of ranks, from weak to strong. They were Tier One Alchemist, Tier Two Alchemist, Tier Three Alchemist, Tier Four Alchemist, Tier Five Alchemist, Tier Six Alchemist, Tier Seven Alchemist, Tier Eight Alchemist, Tier Nine Alchemist, and Supreme Alchemist who had reached the peak. Alchemists at this level were crowned with the word "Honorable" and were called Honorable Apothecaries.
"Honorable Apothecary, what a domineering title! Speaking of which, when I was cultivating array manipulation, I seemed to have seen the words "Array Emperor". Could it be the title of an array manipulator who has reached the peak? "
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
Shaking his head, he continued reading.
"The cultivation of alchemy is the beginning of pill refining. Two cauldrons are used as furnaces, and True Essence or Divine Power are used as alchemy fire. After reaching Tier Two Alchemist, one can begin to cultivate the secret technique of the corresponding rank …" Lin Tianyi continued reading and found that the cultivation of alchemy was similar to that of array manipulators. The cultivation of array manipulators began by finding materials to carve arrays, while the cultivation of alchemy began by finding materials to refine pills. At the later stages of both, one could cultivate extremely terrifying secret techniques with astonishing destructive power.
Lin Tian pondered for a moment and finally decided to cultivate alchemy on the side!
The reason for this was that the Medicine Codex was indeed extraordinary. In it, there were various kinds of Baodan that were very magical. However, there were two points that attracted Lin Tian the most. First, the Medicine Codex recorded more than ten types of alchemy recipes that could extend one's lifespan. The lowest one could extend one's lifespan by two years, and the highest one could extend one's lifespan by a hundred thousand years. This alchemy recipe that could extend one's lifespan was undoubtedly a great shock to him because lifespan was the most precious thing for a cultivator. Thinking about it, if he could control the ability to refine the Baodan that could extend one's lifespan, in the future, he and his friends and family would be able to live a corresponding second life when their lifespan was about to dry up. How fortunate would that be?
The second point was, of course, the few core magical powers recorded in the secret technique section were already comparable to Celestial Venerable secret techniques.
Celestial Venerable secret techniques were enough to frighten the world!
"Traditional martial arts, the way of array manipulation. So what if I walk one more path now? I'll try to break through this path of alchemy!"
Lin Tian's eyes glowed.
On the path of a cultivator, the most important thing was quality, not complexity. This was because if one learned too many things, they would often not be able to reach the peak of any path. However, Lin Tian did not care so much. He believed in himself. As long as it was something that could be learned and useful, he was willing to learn it. Moreover, he firmly believed that he could reach the peak of all paths.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Tian looked at the Pill-Forging section and started learning alchemy recipes from the first-grade inferior ones.
After a quick glance, his gaze landed on the simplest Fasting Pill.
"Materials, Blood Grass, Morning Dew, Five Grains."
Lin Tian glanced briefly and found that the Fasting Pill did not require many materials.
Finally, he still needed a cauldron for alchemy.
"These things are relatively simple. They can be exchanged in Wuji Gate."
Lin Tian muttered to himself.
After thinking for a while, he stood up and walked down the Fallen Immortal Peak toward the Wuji Gate's Hall of True Treasures. The Hall of True Treasures contained various treasures and materials. Wuji Gate's disciples could exchange spiritual coins, their own martial arts techniques, or other items for treasures and materials of corresponding value. Usually, many disciples would come and go.
"Madman is here!"
"Dodge!"
"Damn it, the people in front, hurry up! Don't block my way! "
Seeing Lin Tian arrive, the ordinary disciples of the Limitless Sect all changed their expressions as if they had seen the plague.
Lin Tian was a little speechless, but he was too lazy to say anything. He directly went to the front of a deacon in the True Treasure Hall and used his spirit coins to exchange for what he wanted. Then, he directly walked out of the True Treasure Hall and headed towards the Fallen Immortal Peak.
At the foot of the Fallen Immortal Peak, he coincidentally bumped into Bai Qiu.
"Why aren't you staying on the mountain? Why are you running around?"
Bai Qiu asked.
Lin Tian suddenly had the urge to beat this girl up. Should he stay on the mountain?
After a pause, he suddenly thought of a question and asked Bai Qiu, "By the way, you said that alchemists are generally not very strong. Why is that? Don't they have their own secret alchemy skills? "
"Why are you asking this?"
Bai Qiu was curious.
"Just asking."
Lin Tiandao.
Bai Qiu made an "oh" sound and didn't think too much about it. He said, "Speaking of which, the Dao of Alchemy has been passed down for a very long time. One of the nine Celestial Venerables studied it to the extreme and reached the pinnacle of this Dao. He wrote a supreme ancient Dao of Alchemy that contained many secret offensive techniques. However, in the long river of time, many of these techniques were lost. Today, in the Dao of Alchemy, most alchemists only know how to refine Dan.
"One of the nine Celestial Lords? Master Apothecary? "
Lin Tianwei was shocked.
"Yes."
Bai Qiu nodded.
Lin Tian could not help but gasp. Could it be that the Medicine Codex was written by one of the nine Celestial Lords, the Master Apothecary?
Why would this thing appear in the mysterious iron sword?
For a moment, Lin Tian was stunned. This Medicine Codex was a complete ancient scripture of the Celestial Lords?
"Hey, hey, hey, what's wrong with you?"
Bai Qiu shouted.
Lin Tian came to his senses and shook his head. "Nothing."
Although he said so, he was still shocked. He was shocked by the Medicine Codex and even more shocked by the mysterious iron sword.
Bai Qiu followed Lin Tianyi up the Fallen Immortal Peak and took a lot of ordinary Baodan from Lin Tian. Then, she gathered a group of small animals.
"Speaking of which, why are there so many ordinary animals on the Fallen Immortal Peak? There's not a single one on the Wuji Peak."
Bai Qiu muttered.
Lin Tian glanced around and said, "Maybe it's because the Fallen Immortal Peak was abandoned. After it became an ordinary peak, not many people came here. Naturally, there would be many ordinary animals coming in and out. This is very normal in the mortal world."
Bai Qiu blinked and asked, "You know a lot about the mortal world. I haven't been there before. Is it fun?"
"It's okay. It's easier and simpler than the cultivation world. There aren't so many cruel battles."
"If there's a chance, take me there to play."
Bai Qiu stayed on the Fallen Immortal Peak until dusk. Then, she left and returned to the Wuji Peak.
At night, stars filled the sky and specks of silver light sprinkled on the earth.
Lin Tian looked up at the sky. It was already very dark. At this time, there were still some small animals jumping in front of the ruined palace. He smiled and walked to the back of the ruined palace. He came to an extremely quiet place. After cleaning up a little, he arranged an open space. With a thought, he took out a five-inch-tall black cauldron from the stone ring.
This black cauldron had two ears, three legs, and a lid. In front of it, there was a hole about an inch in diameter. It was called the "forging mouth". If one looked carefully, one could see that there were many small branches on the surface of the "forging mouth". These branches were like internal pipes that passed through the walls of the black cauldron. Then, they broke open the inner walls of the black cauldron and created dozens of small holes. These small holes were called "flame mouths".
Lin Tian carefully read the Beginner's Book of Forging Elixir several times. This kind of black cauldron was the simplest kind of medicine furnace. The alchemist put his hand on the "forging mouth" and urged his True Essence or Divine Power to pass through various internal channels in the cauldron walls. Finally, the True Essence or Divine Power would be released from the dozens of "flame mouths" in the cauldron to create the alchemy fire used to forge the Baodan. After the alchemy fire was produced and stabilized, the alchemist would put in the alchemy materials from the mouth of the cauldron and close the lid. Then, he would control the alchemy fire to refine the pill.
"Whoosh!"
