After Lin Feng carefully explored the condition of the boy's body in the urn, he had already completely understood the real principle of this so-called Renyuan Jindan.
The medicine cauldron in the boy's body was still very different from the cauldron of a late stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. It could only be called a "false cauldron."
And the medicine pill condensed in the false cauldron was naturally not a normal golden elixir, but a false cauldron.
However, this Renyuan Panacea could indeed help a Foundation Establishment cultivator improve the success rate of forming the core, and even help a golden elixir period cultivator improve the quality of the golden elixir.
The principle was actually similar to the method Xiao Budian's brother used to seize Xiao Budian's Supreme Bier.
When the false cauldron and the false cauldron in the boy's body matured, they would be provided to the cultivators who needed them, and then the cauldron and the false cauldron would be separated from the boy's body by a secret method.
For example, the other party was a middle stage Foundation Establishment cultivator who was unable to condense a cauldron to advance to the late stage Foundation Establishment.
After obtaining the false cauldron in the boy's body, he could use the false cauldron as a framework, pour his own mana, and finally condense a true cauldron.
Then, with the help of the false cauldron that still existed in the cauldron, he could use the same method to form the golden elixir until he successfully advanced to the golden elixir period.
Because of the special composition of medicine, the false cauldron contained the two principles of life and nirvana. Not only could it provide the medicinal power of Reiki, but it could also help the cultivator overcome the difficulties of life and death. This was the most important thing.
Some late stage Foundation Establishment cultivators who were unable to form the core also used the same method, but they didn't need a false cauldron, only a false cauldron.
And after the cultivators in the golden elixir period introduced the false cauldron and the false cauldron into their body, they could use the false cauldron as the foundation and the powerful medicinal power of the false cauldron as nourishment to obtain a chance to refine the golden elixir.
Just like remaking, if the refining was successful, the quality of the golden elixir might be improved to a higher level.
However, Lin Feng only needed to explore a little before he found a flaw in it.
This method was used to help the cultivators in the golden elixir period improve the quality of the golden elixir, but it could only be used to upgrade the yellow elixir of the fourth grade to the jade elixir of the third grade.
If the Jade Pill wanted to improve, the success rate was too low, close to zero. The Vermillion Pill, which was above the Jade Pill, was not even worth mentioning.
If this method was used to help late Foundation Establishment cultivators form their Gold Core, because it was an opportunistic method of borrowing the power of a False Core, even if they succeeded in forming their Gold Core, they would only be able to obtain a Yellow Core, the lowest of the four grades of the Golden Elixir.
Generally speaking, the better the pill, the stronger the human body's resistance to it. After using this Renyuan Jindan once, it wouldn't work the next time.
Therefore, in a sense, the effect of the Renyuan Jindan on cultivators in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm was the most obvious. Depending on the strength of the Virtual Cauldron, the quality of the Alchemy Cauldron would be determined. It was even possible to get a top-grade Alchemy Cauldron.
With a top-grade pill cauldron, even if he did not have a Void Core, he would have a great chance of advancing to the Golden Elixir Period with his own strength.
In fact, when the Hundred Herbs Ancestor first created this secret art, he wanted to work backwards from Core Formation, from the Golden Elixir to the Pill Cauldron, and then to the Spirit Platform. He wanted to research the method to forge the upper three grades of the Spirit Platform, or even the Supreme Spirit Platform.
However, after deducing to the Pill Cauldron stage, the Hundred Herbs Ancestor could no longer continue and could only stop there.
After being improved and perfected, the Renyuan Jindan had become what it was now.
"Although it has all kinds of flaws, it will still be very popular." Lin Feng sighed.
The Great Path of the Golden Elixir was a matter of life and death. This could be said to be the first major obstacle faced by millions of cultivators in the Great Heaven Primordial World.
If they passed, they would enjoy a lifespan of a thousand years. Even if they could only form a Yellow Core and were unable to progress further, they would still have a lifespan of a thousand years and be happy to live a free and unfettered life.
If they could not pass, their Qi and blood would decline in less than two hundred years and they would become old and frail. In the end, they would pass away and turn into a cup of soil.
The difference between the two was simply too great.
For cultivators who had successfully advanced to the Golden Elixir Period, whether they formed a Yellow Core or a Green Core made a huge difference.
Not to mention whether or not they could advance to the middle stage of the Golden Elixir Period, cultivators who formed a Green Core could beat their opponents who formed a Yellow Core until they were looking for their teeth on the ground.
For a sect, if a few cultivators who formed a Yellow Core could raise the quality of the Golden Elixir to the level of a Green Core, their overall combat ability would immediately increase by a level. In the future, if all of them could advance to the middle stage of the Golden Elixir Period, it would be a completely different world. The strength of the entire sect would have a small leap.
"However …" Lin Feng's divine sense swept through all fifty large jars. He was surprised to find that the Void Cauldron and Void Core of nearly thirty children in the large jars had been shattered.
This kind of shattering should be natural. In other words, it was a natural loss during the process of refining pills.
Perhaps it was because the bodies of the children could not bear the medicinal power, or because the Void Cauldron and Void Core were not stable enough, or even because the refiner, the Hundred Herbs Ancestor, made a mistake.
But as Lin Feng looked at this scene, his eyes became colder and colder.
There would be a time when the medicinal juice in the jars would dry up. Every time the Hundred Herbs Ancestor came to change the medicine, he would definitely eliminate the children who failed.
In other words, the thirty children who failed here had all broken their Void Cauldron and Void Core after the Hundred Herbs Ancestor changed the medicine last time.
Lin Feng observed for a moment and found that the rate at which the medicinal juice was being consumed was actually very fast.
In a short period of time, three-fifths of the children had already been eliminated.
Every time the medicine was changed, a group of children would be eliminated. With such a high elimination rate, for the sake of these twenty children who were on the verge of success, how many people had failed and how many had already been eliminated?
What was the fate of those children who had been eliminated?
Lin Feng took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
He sensed for a moment and was sure that these large jars were closely connected to the Hundred Herbs Ancestor's mind. Whether he was saving people or retrieving the Breathing Soil, he would definitely alert the Hundred Herbs Ancestor.
The magical power restriction here was different from the one in the ice city outside. This so-called Renyuan Jindan was still in the process of being refined. As the refiner, the Hundred Herbs Ancestor was even more closely connected to their minds. Therefore, Lin Feng did not dare to risk using the Heavenly Barrier.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat and he hid himself.
The stone hut quieted down. Only the sound of the medicinal juice in the jars bubbling and then exploding could be heard.
Lin Feng hid to the side, but his eyes were not fixed on the door. Instead, he was looking at a corner of the hut, staring at the wall there.
After a while, a small bulge suddenly appeared on the greenish-gray stone wall.
It was a bulge the size of a grain of sand. Even if an ordinary person were to look closely, they might not be able to notice it.
But Lin Feng's eyes were fixed on the small grain that had suddenly appeared on the stone wall.
Gradually, something squeezed out of the stone wall. It was a pale gold color, and it was especially eye-catching on the greenish-gray stone wall.
It was a grain of sand, a pale gold grain of sand.
The grain of sand emitted a faint golden radiance. The radiance became stronger and stronger, and in the end, the entire stone hut was illuminated in a golden color.
Within the golden radiance, the grain of sand gradually grew larger, and in the end, it grew to a circumference of three meters. At the same time, the grain of sand also became transparent, revealing the two figures inside.
The golden radiance dispersed, and the enormous grain of sand also disappeared. The two people landed on the ground, and both looked at the jars in front of them with serious expressions.
One of them was a red-clothed girl whose entire body was like a raging fire. She had crimson hair, crimson eyes, and eyebrows like thin swords. She was the cultivator of the Society of the Strong Gale that he met in the Great Marsh of the Ancient region, Yue Hongyan.
At this moment, the red-clothed girl had a gloomy expression. Her entire body was surrounded by an oppressive and resentful aura, as if she was a volcano that could erupt at any time.
And beside her stood a white-clothed youth. His figure was thin, and his facial features were handsome. It was Kang Nanhua.
At this moment, Kang Nanhua's skin was rosy, and his aura was calm. He had already completely recovered his health, and was no longer as sickly as he was in the Great Marsh of the Ancient region.
But at this moment, Kang Nanhua also carried a hint of gloom between his brows. Seeing this, Lin Feng was secretly amazed.
In Lin Feng's impression, even if back then his face was deathly pale, and he was sweating profusely, and he couldn't even straighten his back, Kang Nanhua's mood was still calm and indifferent.
The current Kang Nanhua's mana and aura were perfect and flawless. Compared to that day in the Great Marsh of the Ancient region, it was a level higher.
But his person was far from being as lively as he was in the Great Marsh of the Ancient region. The current Kang Nanhua was like an old man with one foot in the grave, and had nothing left to live for.
Meeting an old friend in a foreign land was originally something worth being happy about, but Lin Feng didn't show himself to meet them.
Looking at these two people, Lin Feng's brows slightly furrowed: "One is still okay, but both of them have this kind of expression. Did something happen on the side of the Society of the Strong Gale?"
"Then … why are they here?"
Yue Hongyan walked in front of the rows of large jars in the stone house and lifted the lids. After seeing the scene inside clearly, he was so angry that his whole body trembled: "Those bastards of the Hundred Herbs Sect, they actually did something like this!"
Kang Nanhua's gaze swept around the stone house: "Last time we were blocked by the ice wall outside and didn't dare to rashly enter. This time we came again and there was a large hole in the ice wall. It was clearly man-made, the Hundred Herbs Ancestor didn't react at all. The person who broke the ice wall is very skilled."
"It's very likely that he's still here."
Yue Hongyan lifted the lids of large jars one after another. After a while he let out a cheer: "Xiao Huan is fine! Mr. Kang, Xiao Huan is fine! "
The worry between Kang Nanhua's brows slightly lightened.
In order to find the missing Xiao Huan, they went all the way to Eternal Spring Peak and captured a golden elixir period cultivator of Eternal Spring Peak to interrogate him for information.
As a result, the cultivator in the Golden Core Stage caught by Kang Nanhua happened to be one of the beneficiaries of the first batch of Renyuan Jindan made by the Hundred-herbs Master. He was one of the few people on Mount Eternal Spring who knew about it.
Under Kang Nanhua's interrogation, the cultivator revealed information about the Hundred Herbs Ancestor's secret alchemy room. Kang Nanhua and Yue Hongyan came to the cave inside the mountain with the help of a strange treasure that could move space.
The other alarms were resolved by Kang Nanhua, except for the ice wall. If they were to forcibly break it, the Hundred Herbs Ancestor would definitely be alarmed, and the two could only return in vain.
Today they came to investigate again and suddenly found a hole in the ice wall, so they hurried in.
Compared to Yue Hongyan's joy, Kang Nanhua was obviously much calmer: "It's good that he's fine, but I'm afraid it's still very difficult for us to get him out. These large jars must be closely connected to the Hundred Herbs Ancestor's mind. If there is any strange movement, the Hundred Herbs Ancestor will immediately sense it."
Yue Hongyan tightly pursed his lips, his fingers clutching the mouth of the jar tightly.
