PS: There will be more at night.
Zhang Yan had an incantation that he got from Zhou Chongju. It was originally a secret incantation of the Zhou Clan in Yuxiao school.
Previously, there were very few Bai Yueying Fruits. He followed it and did not notice anything wrong with it.
However, during the refinement process, he gradually discovered that the Essence Qi refined from a single Bai Yueyingshi was actually far from the limit that he could absorb.
Perhaps this would be an excellent incantation for a cultivator who had achieved the second grade of Dan. However, to him, it was a pity.
For a cultivator who had achieved the first grade of Dan, not only would he need more materials for cultivation, the spiritual vigor that he could absorb during cultivation was also far beyond that of an ordinary person. It was like a vast ocean that could absorb hundreds of rivers, or a lake that would overflow when it was full.
It was imperative for him to recreate the incantation. Fortunately, he had the Zhou Clan's incantation as a foundation. There was no need for him to recreate it from scratch. All he had to do was to use it as a reference and deduce it again. It was much easier than reversing the Five Elements Mystic Technique.
However, there was no rush. He could only talk about the rest after he had refined the Bai Yueying Fruit.
Hence, he put this matter aside. With a flick of his finger, a incantation fell into the furnace. With a loud bang, the fire was transferred up. Gradually, the fog surged and covered his figure.
He stayed in the pill room for more than a month. Soon, it was the day to open the furnace and take out the medicine. The furnace emitted a gurgling sound, like the cry of a toad. Even the pill room began to tremble slightly, as if he was in a boundless ocean.
As there were many spiritual medicines to be refined, the power of water and fire was boiling. It was much more intense than before. Before the furnace was opened, he could feel that the abundant spiritual vigor could no longer be suppressed. It was about to burst out of the furnace.
Zhang Yan had refined the Bai Yueying Fruit many times and was used to this situation. Hence, he looked calm and used his deep mana to calm the violent power.
After another half a day, the rising power of the medicine had slowed down. However, at this moment, there was a loud bang and it dispersed in all directions. It split into hundreds of spiritual Qi and rushed around in the furnace without any order. It struck the walls of the chamber with a 'dang dang' sound, as if it was striking a bell. Even the body of the furnace couldn't withstand the force and began to sway left and right.
Zhang Yan was startled at first, but soon after, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes. This was clearly the result of the medicinal effect nourishing the inside and outside of the body, forming its own spirituality. That was why there were such vivid signs.
Refining medicine also depended on luck. Only a grandmaster like Zhou Chongju, who had immersed himself in refining for hundreds of years without any distractions, would be able to raise the medicinal properties of each furnace to the highest level and give birth to spiritual opportunities. But ever since Zhang Yan entered the Dao, he had never encountered such a good thing.
At this time, he had to use his firepower to attack fiercely a few times in order to dissipate the heat, but he couldn't go too far. Otherwise, the medicinal properties would be damaged.
However, he had to suppress the Spiritual Vigor and adjust the fire to attack. This required deep magical power to maintain, and the requirements for the alchemist was not small.
If it was a normal alchemist, he might be at a loss when he encountered this, and if he didn't handle it properly, it would be easy to make a mistake.
Fortunately, when Zhou Chongju passed down the method, he did not hide anything at all. Zhang Yan's cultivation level was profound, so he was very calm and did not panic at all. Following the instructions in the Book of Pills, he held his breath and focused, patiently suppressing dozens of the fiercest spiritual vigor. Then, he spent another half an hour to tame the remaining spiritual vigor and mixed the medicinal properties.
He did it step by step, and there was not a single mistake. Another day passed, and all the spiritual opportunities gradually converged into one. They were like a dragon swimming under the water, circling around the furnace, as if they were looking for a way out.
The spiritual opportunities turned inside, and he nodded slightly, knowing that this furnace of pills was completed, so he retracted his magical power.
The spiritual vigor in the cauldron was no longer shackled. In a split second, the spiritual vigor in the cauldron became clear and turbid. Most of the spiritual vigor rushed upwards. A loud noise was heard and the cauldron opened. A majestic spiritual vigor gushed out.
Zhang Yan was slightly surprised. He originally thought that this furnace of pills would have at least two hundred, and at most three hundred. However, he didn't know if the spiritual medicine was pure, or if it was by chance, it gave birth to spiritual opportunities, and the number was ten times more than his previous estimate.
He waved his hand, and a strong wind blew, and the White Moon Spirit Fruits were kept in his pocket.
He shook his sleeves. Since this matter was over, the next step was to deduce the incantation. However, he didn't know how long this closed-door training would take, so he had to settle the affairs in the residence first.
He got up and left the alchemy room, and sat on the couch outside. He sent out a spell, and not long after, Jing You entered the abode, and bowed, "Master, what are your orders?"
Zhang Yan, "Has Fellow Daoist Wei left the mountain?"
Jing You said, "That Daoist Priestess is impatient. She left the same day Zhenren returned."
At this moment he cupped his fists and said, "Just now Chu Zhanglao came and asked me to deliver a message to Laoye. He said that Mount E Pai wants to return to the Shen Wu Mountain. I wonder if Laoye will allow it?"
When Guo Yuan Jun attacked, everyone in Mount E Pai was afraid. Only Bai Zhangmen and his disciples were willing to stay, and even gave up their position as the Sect Leader.
In the end, when the elders of the sect saw that the Shen Wu Mountain was safe and sound, they clamored to return.
Zhang Yan asked, "What is Bai Zhangmen's opinion?"
Jing You said, "Elder Chu wanted to give them some face, but Bai Zhangmen is stubborn. He said that since other sects cannot enter the mountain after leaving, why should Mount E Pai be an exception? Therefore, he refused. "
Zhang Yan changed his mind and said with a smile, "If that's the case, then we'll have to compromise. Go and tell them that if these people still think that they belong to the Shen Wu Mountain, they can first set up an altar in the Eastern Shen Wu Mountain. If they do a good job, then they can enter the mountain again."
He knew these people's temperament very well. They saw that Hanyuan was powerful and had the support of the Heavenly Abode. Even Zhongtai Pai came to curry favor with them, so they wanted to seek shelter. It was not that there was some heavenly abode in the Shen Wu Mountain that they wanted to squeeze their way in.
Jing You smiled and said, "Master is letting them off easy. I will go and pass on the order."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "When you go down, call Caiwei and the others."
Jing You complied and nimbly walked out of the cave.
Zhang Yan raised his head and looked out from a round door on the east side of the cave. Shen Baishuang was his Shishu. As a junior of the sect, he should go and greet him before he went into closed-door training.
After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the Wang sisters and Fu Baoxing entered the cave together. When they saw him, they knelt down and kowtowed together.
Zhang Yan raised his hand and ordered them to stand up. After ordering them to rise, he turned to look at Fu Baoxing. This disciple's talent was even better than the Wang sisters. His cultivation had been improving very fast recently. Once he entered the third level of the Mystic Light Realm, he would need to open his meridians.
He estimated that he would be able to enter the Core Transformation Realm at the age of ten. Most of the top ten disciples in Qincang School entered the Core Transformation Realm at the age of fifty or sixty. Although this disciple of his was not as good as them, he was not too far away. He was already above his expectations.
"I'm afraid that this closed-door training will take a long time. If you have any problems with your cultivation, you can ask the two Senior Sisters."
Fu Baoxing bowed and said, "I won't slack off."
Zhang Yan nodded and looked at the Wang sisters. These two disciples had hatched a few days ago. After each of them had received the manual, the next step would be to hone their skills. So he said, "After Chu Shidi and the others have gone with Shen Shishu, the school will inevitably be empty. When the two of you practice your skills, When the two of you cultivate, you need to teach disciples and strengthen the sect. "
Wang Caiting pouted and said, "Master, I can't even teach myself well. How can I take in disciples? It's better for Big Sister to do this. "
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Don't try to shirk your responsibility. If you don't teach yourself well, don't tell others that you're my disciple. "
Wang Caiting's eyes turned and said with a sly expression, "Then Master will need to give me some pills and treasures. Otherwise, if I don't even have a gift when I take in disciples, wouldn't I lose face? "
Zhang Yan laughed and said, "So you were waiting for Master here. But what you said makes sense."
He pondered for a moment, then waved his sleeve and a ray of light flew down. "There are many magic treasures I obtained outside in this bag, as well as some pills. They are useless to Master, so you two can take them. However, remember not to teach indiscriminately, lest you lose the will to improve yourself."
The Wang sisters accepted the order solemnly.
Zhang Yan waved his sleeve and said, "Go."
After the three disciples left, he sat for a while and walked out of the cave. He looked up at the sky and with a tap of his foot, he flew with the wind and headed towards the East God House.
In just two hours, he arrived in front of the Earth Fire Heavenly Cauldron. Looking down, he saw Shen Baishuang sitting on a rock and talking with two Daoists. He recognized one of them as Han Wangke. The other was tall and sturdy, he was in high spirits and stood there like a pine tree.
As if sensing that someone was looking at him, he couldn't help but raise his head. When he saw Zhang Yan, his eyes narrowed and he immediately revealed a wary expression.
Han Wangke also saw Zhang Yan and hurriedly whispered something in his ear. The Daoist was surprised, but his expression turned solemn. He raised his hand and bowed to the air.
Zhang Yan waved away the wind and clouds and descended. He first bowed to Shen Baishuang, then to Han Wangke, and finally looked at the Daoist.
Han Wangke said, "Junior apprentice brother Zhang, let me introduce you. This is Cai Rongju, I's junior apprentice brother. In the past, we both cultivated under Master Li."
Zhang Yan smiled faintly, "So you are from the White Sun Cave."
Han Wangke said in high spirits, "This time, we will be following Junior Apprentice Brother Shen back to the mountain. I think we will be in contact with junior apprentice brother in the future."
Zhang Yan was surprised and looked at Shen Baishuang. He cupped his hands and said, "Then I must congratulate the two senior apprentice brothers."
Han Wangke hurriedly returned the greeting and said, "This is all thanks to Junior Apprentice Brother Shen, we can return to the mountain."
Shen Baishuang said indifferently, "No need to thank me. Whether you can stand firm in the sect depends on yourselves. I will not come and protect you."
Han Wangke and Cai Rongju hurriedly said yes.
Zhang Yan said, "Junior Apprentice Brother Shen, Apprentice Brother Shen feels that his opportunity has come and he needs to go into seclusion. I don't know when he will come out of the monastery. The big and small matters of the sect have been handed over to my two disciples and Junior Apprentice Brother Zhao. If Junior Apprentice Brother Shen wants to leave, I'm afraid I won't be able to send you off."
Shen Baishuang flung his sleeve and smiled, "We are Daoists, we don't have so many rules. Your cultivation is more important. You can go on your own."
Zhang Yan did not say anything more. He cupped his hands to Shen Baishuang and said goodbye to Han and Cai Rongju. Then he rode the wind and returned to Cang Zhu Peak.
The journey was smooth. Before sunset, he arrived at the Sect of Deep Caves.
After entering the cave, he sat down on the couch and first activated all the restrictions around him, sealing the inner and outer doors of the cave. After making sure that there were no loopholes, he reached into his sleeve and held onto the remnant of the jade. His mind sank into it.
