In this elder's impression, the Kongming Sect hadn't had a disciple with such a fast cultivation speed for countless years. He estimated that the closest was the current Kong Ming Duo, but that was nearly five thousand years ago.
This elder had only heard of the astonishing cultivation speed of the Kong Ming Duo, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. After all, when he joined the Kongming Sect, the Kong Ming Duo were already elders and he didn't have the opportunity to see them.
When he had succeeded in his cultivation and became an elder, the Kong Ming Duo had already become Grand Elders and had been in seclusion to break through to the Dongxu Stage.
After so many years, even with the Kong Ming Duo's cultivation speed, they still hadn't become Dongxu Stage experts. It could be seen that the further one cultivated, the harder it was to break through.
The cultivation speed of this disciple in front of him was even faster than the Kong Ming Duo, so how could he not pay attention to him? This elder stared at Luo Ping with blazing eyes and slowly took the jade slip from Luo Ping's hand.
"This disciple had a fortuitous encounter and was lucky enough to break through." Luo Ping respectfully said.
"A fortuitous encounter? It seems this fortuitous encounter is really not small! I don't know if you have a master or not. Are you willing to take me as your master? "This elder directly asked.
When Luo Ping first came to the sect, this elder wasn't in the main hall, so he didn't know that Luo Ping was Xiao Yan's disciple. Moreover, he had been in charge of the mission union and didn't know about this matter, so he asked this question now.
"This disciple's master is Xiao Yan." Luo Ping said.
"What? Senior Brother Xiao? What a pity … "This elder couldn't help but sigh. He wasn't sighing because Luo Ping didn't have a good master, but because he missed the opportunity to take in a disciple.
Such a good seedling, if carefully cared for, could grow into a towering tree in the future. He didn't expect that his Senior Brother Xiao would be one step ahead of him. How could it not be a pity?
As the elder spoke, he checked Luo Ping's jade slip. Then, he took out another jade slip and verified it with each other. After confirming that there was no error, he nodded.
After erasing the spiritual sense on the two jade slips, the elder put them away. Then, he scanned the jade slips with his divine sense and counted the mission results before putting them away as well.
Then, he took out a palm-sized green card and handed it to Luo Ping.
"This is a point card. It records the amount of sect contribution points you've earned. You have to bring it with you every time. As long as you scan it with your spiritual sense, you'll know how many sect contribution points you've earned." The elder explained.
After receiving the card, Luo Ping carefully examined it. It should have been refined with some kind of special refining material as its shape was quite unique. After scanning it with his spiritual sense, a piece of information immediately appeared in Luo Ping's mind.
It was his sect contribution points for this mission. The three intermediate missions rewarded him with 45 points. Although it was relatively little, it was still a good start. Luo Ping smiled with satisfaction.
"Elder Hu, please help me exchange for some refining and alchemy books." Luo Ping handed over the point card. His meaning was very obvious. He intended to use it now.
"Refining? Alchemy? Luo Ping boy, don't bite off more than you can chew, do you understand? Although your cultivation speed is very fast, you can't waste your time on other aspects. You must know that your own strength is the most important. You can only have a simple understanding of those auxiliary techniques. "
This Elder Hu kindly reminded Luo Ping. He was worried that Luo Ping would be distracted and affect his cultivation. After all, a cultivator's pursuit was to ascend and become an immortal. Striving to improve one's strength was the king's way. Other alchemy, refining, and so on were just auxiliary techniques.
They could not be taught. "Thank you Elder Hu for reminding me. This disciple certainly knows the importance of cultivation. This disciple exchanged for refining and alchemy books just to increase my knowledge. If I don't have talent in this area, then I won't give up." Luo Ping replied.
Elder Hu saw that Luo Ping spoke so clearly and did not say anything more. He took the point card from his hand and deducted 40 sect contribution points. Then he took out two books and gave them to Luo Ping.
"Your sect contribution points can only be exchanged for the most basic refining and alchemy books. In addition to the basic methods of refining and alchemy, there are some alchemy recipes. However, they are only third-grade alchemy recipes. Even so, it's enough for you to study for a while." Elder Hu said seriously.
"This disciple thanks Elder Hu." Luo Ping said.
"Hey, from now on, call me Martial Uncle Hu, Elder Hu, Elder Hu, Elder Hu, Elder Hu, Elder Hu, it's too distant!" Elder Hu said with a smile.
He now liked the young man in front of him more and more. With his many years of experience in judging people, he concluded that Luo Ping was definitely not a nobody. He would definitely be famous in the Cultivation Domain. Therefore, his tone was very amiable.
"Yes, Martial Uncle Hu." Luo Ping also replied with a smile.
When Luo Ping left the Mission Union, he was greeted by many disciples pointing at him. Although they spoke very softly, they were still heard by Luo Ping's powerful spiritual sense. However, he did not care and walked straight out of the Mission Union's gate.
"Is it true? Did you hear that? Elder Hu actually said that our Martial Uncle Luo has advanced to the early stage of the Golden Elixir? "
"Of course I heard that. How do you think this Martial Uncle Luo cultivated? When he first came, he was only at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage. Now, in a flash, he has advanced to the early stage of the Golden Elixir. It's so sad!"
"Didn't Martial Uncle Luo say that he had a fortuitous encounter? It seems that I have to go out and find a fortuitous encounter. Maybe I can soar to the sky. Ahahaha, I have to go."
… … …
"Elder Hu, who has always been a man of few words, is actually chatting so happily with this kid. What's his background?"
"Shh, Senior Brother, he is not a kid. He is the disciple of Martial Uncle Xiao, which means he is our Martial Uncle. He just came here not long ago. At that time, Senior Brother was cultivating in seclusion, so you didn't know."
"Oh? Is he the kid who stole Junior Brother Ke's mountain? "
At the edge of the Mission Union, two disciples were chatting. One of them seemed to look down on Luo Ping and kept calling him a kid.
"That's right. At that time, this Martial Uncle Luo was only at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage, and he made Senior Brother Ke lose face. Senior Brother Ke had no choice but to give up the tenth mountain. Now, he can only go out to complete sect missions in exchange for cultivation resources. Otherwise, Senior Brother Ke would be able to advance to the Golden Elixir stage in a few years."
The other disciple said. They were far away from Elder Hu, so they didn't hear that Luo Ping was already at the early stage of the Golden Elixir. Otherwise, they would be even more shocked.
"In that case, he has some strength. It seems that we have to find a chance to 'pay a visit' to this Martial Uncle of ours."
Although the Senior Brother said so, his face was full of disdain. The Junior Brother beside him immediately understood what he meant and also revealed an evil smile.
Elder Hu looked at them indifferently and shook his head helplessly. He didn't say anything. The other party had a special identity, so he couldn't do anything about it. Besides, he didn't think that these two disciples could take advantage of Luo Ping.
… … …
"Achoo!"
Luo Ping, who was rushing back to the tenth mountain, suddenly sneezed. However, he didn't care. This time, he had spent 40 sect contribution points in exchange for the refining skills and alchemy skills. There were only 5 points left in his card.
"It seems that the sect contribution points are really useful, but it's not forbidden. It seems that I can't just rely on the sect contribution points to exchange for cultivation resources."
"Although the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth in the tenth mountain is quite rich, and if I practice in seclusion, I can also improve my cultivation. However, although it's safe, the progress will be slow. It will take at least tens of thousands of years to reach the Great Vehicle Stage."
"Danger often coexists with opportunity. Only by going out and gaining experience is the right choice." Luo Ping said.
However, the strong people who were famous in the Cultivation Domain basically wouldn't stay in one place to cultivate. They would go out to gain experience and seek opportunities. Whether it was a dangerous place, a secret realm, or a relic, as long as there was a chance, they would explore. Only in this way could they spend less time improving their cultivation and improve their combat experience.
The advancement of Luo Ping's cultivation this time was a great opportunity, which made him deeply aware of the importance of seeking opportunities. If he were to cultivate in seclusion step by step, he estimated that it would take at least a hundred years before he could advance to the next realm.
"First, I'll learn the basic refining skills and alchemy skills. Then, I'll see if I can refine some pills. No matter what the result is, after three months, I'll leave the sect and go out to see the world."
Luo Ping made a decision in his heart. He couldn't help but speed up. Soon, he returned to the tenth mountain. After greeting Zheng Qi, he returned to his room and began to study alchemy skills.
As for Han Junyang and the others, they once again entered the place where they practiced in seclusion. They all had their own predetermined goals. It was estimated that if they didn't reach their goals, they wouldn't come out easily this time.
Taking out the alchemy skills that he had just obtained, Luo Ping read it carefully. According to his current memory, all the contents were deeply imprinted in his mind. A look of enlightenment appeared on his face.
"According to this, I've reached the early stage of the Golden Elixir. I can already use the alchemy fire to refine pills and weapons. However, the level of the pills I can refine still needs to be considered."
Just like the cultivation method, the nine grades of pills were also divided into three grades: upper grade, middle grade, and lower grade. The lower grade pills were generally easy to refine. They only needed ordinary flames to refine.
As for the middle grade pills, it required the self-cultivator to reach the Golden Elixir stage and refine them with the fire of the golden elixir. As for the level of the pills refined, not only did it depend on the strength of the self-cultivator's alchemy fire, but also on the comprehensive consideration of spiritual sense, true inner force, alchemy furnace, alchemy materials, and other factors.
A strong spiritual sense was to better control the fire. It was also to be able to control the ratio, purification, and condensation of various materials. This was also a necessary condition for a self-cultivator to become a high-level alchemist.
A strong true inner force could sustain the consumption of alchemy for a long time. After all, alchemy couldn't be completed in a short period of time. Some pills even needed a few days to refine. At this time, if one didn't have enough true inner force, all the previous efforts would be wasted.
Although it was also possible to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the spirit stones to replenish true inner force, if one didn't have a strong spiritual sense, it was easy to be distracted and make mistakes. This showed the importance of spiritual sense.
Alchemy naturally required alchemy furnaces. The quality of the furnace was the main factor that determined the level of the pills. A high grade furnace could better reduce the loss of alchemy materials. It could also speed up the cycle of alchemy and so on.
Those high-level alchemists almost all had top grade furnaces in their hands, which were rare in the Cultivation Domain. Only with these furnaces could they refine high grade pills.
