After putting on the virtual glasses, Chu Yunfan turned on the device. Suddenly, his vision blurred, and he appeared in a simple space. This was the starting point for everyone when they logged on to the Internet.
Everything seemed real, but in fact, it was the spirit that entered. It was said that the virtual network could not be realized at all. Even if it was realized, it would not be like this. It was like a second world.
People could even fight in it, and it was no different from the real world. This did not exist more than a hundred years ago. However, it was said that more than a hundred years ago, when humans were colonizing the Kunlun Realm, they discovered the ruins of an ancient civilization. They obtained an artifact and used the power of this artifact to realize the construction of the virtual network.
Now, this virtual network covered the entire Earth and the human base cities in the Kunlun Realm. It could be said that people could go online at any time, anywhere.
As for what the artifact was, Chu Yunfan did not know. This was a secret of the human government. Although it was a well-known secret, the government did not acknowledge the existence of this artifact. This made the artifact even more mysterious.
Everyone would register an account when they were very young. This account was the only one, and it was tied to everyone's identity card.
Every time they connected to the virtual network, they would be scanned, and the displayed strength would be printed in the virtual network.
In other words, Chu Yunfan was currently at the sixth stage of the physical body realm, Resonating Tendons and Bones, in the virtual network, and it would be the same in the real world.
This was something that could not be done with technology. It could only be done with that mysterious artifact.
However, there was a limit to how much real strength could be transferred into the virtual world. Normally, it would only be transferred up to the physical body realm. As for the Qi Hai realm, the Qi Cultivation realm, the Acquired realm, and even the Innate Realm, if they wanted to transfer their real strength into the virtual world, they would have to pay an additional fee.
The stronger one was, the more fees they would have to pay. In the end, it would be a huge sum. However, experts who could cultivate to that realm would probably be able to afford it.
The official explanation was that this kind of scanning and transferring to the virtual world to reconstruct one's body would consume a lot of energy. This was all paid by the person who wanted to transfer their strength into the virtual world.
Therefore, when it came to Dongfang Hao, who was fighting in the virtual world and had the strength of the Qi Cultivation realm, the first thing that came to Chu Yunfan's mind was not strength, but money, and then strength.
After entering the Starting Ground, Chu Yunfan did not choose to leave. Instead, he opened the virtual assistant and downloaded a software called Alchemy Assistant. This was the software released by Du Qingtao. However, it was not cheap, costing five thousand yuan. Although it was targeted at the commoners, Chu Yunfan still felt a little. If Liu Yushu had not transferred ten thousand yuan to him today, he would not have been able to download this software.
However, in general, it was still worth the money. Otherwise, a software that cost five thousand yuan wouldn't be so popular until now. Moreover, over the years, it had been improved and upgraded countless times. It was already very perfect.
After a few seconds, the Alchemy Assistant had finished downloading. Chu Yunfan opened the Alchemy Assistant and saw that his surroundings suddenly changed. Then, he appeared in an alchemy room. This alchemy room was very simple. It was just a simple house. In the middle of the room, there was an alchemy furnace. In front of the alchemy furnace, there was a futon for people to sit on.
There was nothing else. If one wanted to refine pills, he would have to buy medicinal ingredients. Even if it was just virtual data, these medicinal ingredients were not free. They had to be bought from the Alchemy Assistant's shop.
Of course, the price was definitely a hundred times cheaper than in reality. However, once the number of alchemy sessions increased, the price would still be very shocking.
Moreover, there were so many users. As the owner of this software, no one knew how much Alchemy King Du Qingtao had earned all these years.
However, although there were still some profiteering attributes, for ordinary civilians, this was already very good. At least, it provided a possible path for talented people among them to rise.
In fact, many wealthy alchemy apprentices also liked to use the Alchemy Assistant to refine pills. Although the improvement obtained couldn't be compared to in reality, it was cheaper.
After practicing on the virtual network, then refining in reality was the way to go. The money of the rich didn't come from the wind.
Chu Yunfan didn't choose to practice alchemy. Instead, he directly chose the alchemy apprentice assessment below. For an ordinary alchemy master, it would take god knows how many times to have the feeling and comprehension. After he obtained Danhuang's memory, he already had it.
He also had to admit that Danhuang was indeed a peerless genius in alchemy. He was much better than the current number one alchemist in human society, Alchemy King Du Qingtao.
"May I ask if you want to take the first assessment? Since you haven't taken any assessment before, the assessment will start from the Beginner Alchemy Apprentice License Assessment! The assessment fee is one thousand yuan! "
The mechanical voice sounded in Chu Yunfan's ears. In order to prevent people from purely trying their luck to see if they could pass the assessment, the alchemy apprentice license had a fee for each level of assessment. The higher the level, the higher the fee.
"Begin the assessment!"
Chu Yunfan didn't have any hesitation and directly chose to choose.
"Begin the random selection of questions!"
Then, with a "ding" sound, a light screen was projected in front of Chu Yunfan.
"Please refine a Beginner Meditation Pill. The time limit is two hours!"
Immediately, a pile of medicinal herbs appeared around Chu Yunfan. Obviously, they were the medicinal herbs needed to refine this Beginner Meditation Pill.
In Chu Yunfan's mind, the situation of this Meditation Pill suddenly appeared. For a martial artist, meditation was the first step, and meditation was the foundation and beginning of all internal energy cultivation. However, not everyone could easily enter a state of meditation. Many people needed to spend a long time to get rid of distracting thoughts and calmly start to cultivate. In the middle of this, a lot of time would be wasted.
Moreover, there was a big difference between different states of meditation. The deeper the state of meditation, the better the effect. When cultivating, the effect would be twice the result with half the effort.
And this was also the existence of the Meditation Pill. It could help people quickly enter a state of meditation. A Meditation Pill could let people quickly enter a state of meditation for a period of time.
The Meditation Pill was divided into Beginner Meditation Pill, Intermediate Meditation Pill, and Advanced Meditation Pill.
The Beginner Meditation Pill was very cheap, only five thousand yuan. Although it was still a little expensive for ordinary people, it was not something they couldn't afford. However, the Intermediate Meditation Pill would cost ten thousand yuan, and the Advanced Meditation Pill would cost up to a million yuan. This kind of Meditation Pill not only helped to enter a state of meditation, but it could even improve one's aptitude to a certain extent after taking it for a long time. It was just that even ordinary rich people couldn't afford this kind of consumption.
Ordinary people needed the Meditation Pill to help with cultivation. His eldest cousin, Chu Yuntian, often took the Meditation Pill, which allowed him to achieve twice the result with half the effort. In the past, every time he cultivated, entering a state of meditation was a big problem. After cultivating for two hours, he would have to enter a state of meditation for at least one hour to get rid of all distracting thoughts and focus on cultivation.
But now, it was different. He felt that every time he entered a state of meditation, it was better than the rumored state after taking the Advanced Meditation Pill. Once he entered the state of cultivation, he would immediately have no distractions, which was very powerful.
Just this alone could save him a lot of time and money.
However, he didn't need it, but his parents and sister needed it. In the future, when he earned a lot of money and cured his sister, he could refine the Meditation Pill himself and let them take it to improve their cultivation.
Although he had never refined a pill, he didn't actually learn much about the theory of alchemy. This was because alchemy was an elective course in school, not a compulsory course. Only some students who had money and time would choose to take it. He didn't even have time to practice, so naturally, he didn't have time to go to class. He knew that he wouldn't have any future in this aspect.
However, when Chu Yunfan turned on the alchemy furnace and ignited the flames, a familiar feeling spread throughout his body. Although this alchemy furnace was made in the modern era, including the fire under the furnace, there was a fire-breathing device below it. There was no need to continuously add all kinds of wood like the ones in the ancient era.
That familiar feeling allowed him to quickly grasp the feeling of alchemy.
Add water, ignite the fire, heat it up, and add all kinds of medicinal ingredients!
All the processes were done smoothly by Chu Yunfan. It was as if he had practiced this process thousands of times. There was no hesitation or stagnation at all.
When to add the fire, how much fire to add, when to add the medicinal ingredients, and how much to add. These were not reflected in the alchemy formula. The alchemy formula only had the most basic composition of medicinal ingredients and the basic process.
There were no more detailed things. This was the so-called secret knowledge, which was passed down by word of mouth among alchemists.
Ordinary alchemists needed to go through alchemy many times before they could determine how to refine a pill with the highest efficiency. Although the modern method wasn't as narrow as the ancient civilization's, which was a secret knowledge that couldn't be passed down to outsiders, the alchemist system had only been excavated and organized for more than two hundred years. There were still many uncertainties. Compared to the Danhuang in Chu Yunfan's memory, who had almost reached the pinnacle of the alchemist system of the ancient civilization, there was still a long way to go.
After an hour, the pill was successfully refined. Hot steam filled the air, and one could even smell a medicinal fragrance.
