"A master level alchemist..."

Qiu Jingxiang suddenly felt that she was indeed very lucky to have what she had when she arrived in Wulin Town.

The prophecy of the great master would never tell the Qiu family one. The four major families of the Yanteng Empire, the royal family, and other powerful forces should know. It is estimated that most of them would send people to Wulin Town to investigate. According to the information Sun had, people from the other three families had already appeared. As a result, she took the lead and found Zhang Ling first, and successfully recruited him to Qiujiyusi. In this way, if others wanted to poach, it would be much more difficult.

Qiu Jingxiang was also full of interest in Zhang Ling herself. There were indeed too many strange things on this guy. Now, what she was most puzzled was that she really couldn't tell which one was Zhang Ling's original deity. Several days passed, and she had been secretly observing Zhang Ling's movements, trying to find out the differences between the two Zhang Lings.

As a result, she greeted Zhang Ling on Master Gu's side, and he also replied with a smile. When she came to Master Yan's side, she asked Zhang Ling again, and he also answered with a smile, exactly the same as before.

"Zi Chao, which one is your deity?" Qiu Jingxiang couldn't help asking.

"Both are both, and neither are both." Zhang Ling's answer was completely like a maneuver, tight-lipped.

In fact, Zhang Ling himself probably couldn't tell which one is his deity and which one is his mirror. Because he can transfer between the deity and the mirror at any time. Wherever there is something wrong, the deity is the deity. Wherever there is nothing wrong, the mirror may be the mirror. The transformation between the deity and the mirror is completely in his thoughts. In these few days, his biggest problem is to work hard to adapt to such a schizophrenia-like life to avoid becoming mentally ill.

Can you imagine that you suddenly divide into two people, in different spaces at the same time, facing different people and things at the same time? Zhang Ling never thought about this before. Now, he must get used to such a life. At the beginning, he felt that he was simply a psychopath and schizophrenia. His brain could not process information from two different spaces at all.

At that time, the powerful man who created the Wujian Ming Lingzhi must have not considered Zhang Ling's situation. In the mantra of Wujian Ming Lingzhi, the deity is the original deity, and the mirror is the mirror, and it is impossible to change at any time. As long as the practitioner firmly grasps his own deity, there will be no signs of schizophrenia. Zhang Ling violated the regulations.

Fortunately, whether it is the original deity or the mirror, it is the same in terms of receiving alchemy knowledge.

In order to make Zhang Ling's original deity stay in his alchemy room, Master Yan and Master Gu did take advantage of their efforts to contribute their entire lives without reservation. They were grandmaster-level alchemists. When they were teaching, they naturally quoted scriptures and were profound and profound. They were shocked Zhang Ling, who had just begun to step into the alchemist's door, and were completely overwhelmed.

There is no doubt that alchemy is definitely profound and endless. Every alchemist has different experiences. Each different elixir also has different refining techniques. It is impossible for a novice who is just getting involved in alchemy to master so many alchemy skills. It can only be done step by step. Start from the simplest start, evolve slowly, and finally master complex alchemy skills.

However, the progress of alchemists has always been very difficult. Starting from the lowest level of alchemist apprentice, evolving to the primary alchemist, evolving to the intermediate alchemist, and evolving to the advanced alchemist, it takes a lot of time and energy. Even a small, just starting alchemist apprentice may take years or even decades to become a primary alchemist.

There will definitely be many alchemists who will stop moving forward in this difficult process or be simply eliminated. Many practitioners at the beginning felt that alchemy was promising, and they rushed in and tried to soar into the sky. As a result, when they suffered various ruthless blows, their enthusiasm quickly faded away. They finally chose to leave.

It can be said that persistence and perseverance are essential conditions for becoming an excellent alchemist.

Talent cannot guarantee that every alchemy apprentice can become an excellent alchemist. In addition to talent, it also requires a lot of sweat.

But for alchemists, this is the most difficult thing to do. Persistence is simple to say, but difficult to do. Persistence for one month, three months, one year, three years may not be a big problem. But if you have to persist for thirteen years, thirty years, or even more time, there will not be many people who can do it.

To be honest, the life of an alchemist is definitely the most boring and lonely. There is only one place for alchemists to live in, that is, the alchemist room. Eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, sleeping, and basically all of them are solved in the alchemist room. Alchemists usually don’t see people at all, and the objects they deal with are all kinds of medicinal materials, various prescriptions, and all kinds of elixirs. Of course, there are also terrible elixirs.

There is no doubt that elixirs are one of the things that alchemists fear the most. If you want to become an alchemist, you must undergo the test of elixirs.

The so-called erysanthemum is actually the side effects of elixirs. It is a medicine that has three parts poison. As long as it is medicinal materials, there are side effects. Some are toxic side effects. These toxic side effects accumulate over time, stack and merge with each other, and change and upgrade, and become elixirs. The more medicinal materials you come into contact with alchemy, the more elixirs accumulated, the greater the damage to the body.

I don’t know how many alchemists are, when they attack the elixir, want to end their lives on the spot. Once the elixir occurs, the inhuman pain is definitely not something that ordinary people can bear. Many alchemists with insufficient will often choose to commit suicide when they cannot bear the pain. They would rather die than suffer inhuman torture. In the Yanteng Empire, there are definitely not a few alchemists who commit suicide every year.

The remaining alchemists who survived the torture of elixirs must suffer from the torment of elixirs at all times. As long as the elixirs are not eliminated, they will definitely attack. Once the elixirs occur, pain is inevitable. In other words, it is the torture from elixirs, which is endless and cannot be eradicated. Unless you die, there is no possibility of liberation at all.

However, as long as you deal with medicinal materials and refining elixirs, it is impossible not to accumulate elixirs. Which alchemist can eliminate all his elixirs? Unless you withdraw from the alchemist career from now on, you will never refine elixirs.

Even Master Gu and Master Yan, once the elixir attack occurs, they are also very powerful. What Zhang Ling sees is their glamorous, gorgeous side, popular and respected side, and yet they have not seen their painful side of wanting to live and die.

The courses they taught Zhang Ling were about the terrible things about elixirs. Both of them gave Zhang Ling a detailed description of the inhuman torture they suffered, so that he could be fully prepared. At the same time, it was also a test of Zhang Ling's will. If Zhang Ling's will was not firm enough, no matter how outstanding his talent in alchemy was, it would be impossible to become an excellent alchemist.

Zhang Ling said firmly: "Two masters, you should know that my primary purpose of learning alchemy is to save my mother."

Master Yan held a bottle of dark red liquid in his hand and said slowly: "We are going to test your ability to withstand elixirs now. If you can't bear it, I'm sorry, we have to tell you regretfully that you can't become a master alchemist. Are you willing to undergo the test?"

Zhang Ling nodded without hesitation without hesitation: "Of course I do."

Master Yan laughed and said, "Little guy, don't have your answer so crisp. You'd better think about it before answering. You may not know yet? The elixir prepared by the ancient man for you is quite powerful. Before that, no one could bear it. Do you know why he hasn't recruited a qualified apprentice at such a big age? It's just that his requirements are too harsh. The elixir in his hand made all the alchemy apprentice's eyes turn, and no one could pass the test at all."

Zhang Ling nodded firmly and said in a deep voice: "I am willing to take the test."

Master Gu took out another bottle containing white liquid, put it together with the bottle with dark red liquid, and said slowly: "Very good. I appreciate your perseverance. Now, you take the erysipelas. The bottle of white liquid next to it is the antidote. If you can't bear it, take this bottle of antidote and the test will be over. Of course, the score is unqualified."

Zhang Ling immediately picked up the dark red liquid bottle, unscrewed the lid, and drank it all in one sip.

As soon as the dark red liquid entered his mouth, he immediately felt his throat as if something was burning violently.

It seemed that what he had just poured into his mouth was not a erysipela, but a very high concentration of concentrated sulfuric acid. This extremely high concentration of concentrated sulfuric acid would burn his body. He felt that his whole body seemed to be shrouded in a hot fire.

It seems that this so-called elixir is indeed very powerful. If his body had not been strengthened by the Haori Tathagata Glazed Golden Body Art, it would have been burned long ago. Such a powerful elixir would not be able to suppress such an ordinary alchemist.

Only he is the exception. He can support it in the second level of Fire Cloud Cave. What is this little elixir?

However, when Zhang Ling was thinking this, he suddenly realized that his internal organs seemed to be corroded. After the dark red liquid flowed into his abdomen, it immediately turned into countless sharp blades, trying to cut all his body organs. If they succeeded, he was afraid that his body would be turned into a ball of corpse water on the spot.

"Damn, is this the legendary corpse-transformation powder?"

Zhang Ling was slightly shocked in his heart and never dared to underestimate these elixirs again.

"Ha Ri Tathagata's Glazed Golden Body Art!"

Zhang Ling hurriedly used the exercises to try to suppress the elixir.

As a result, as soon as his skills were running, he immediately felt that his meridians seemed to be out of control.

The dark red liquid seemed to have some magical magic power that corroded all his meridians. His true qi could not run through the meridians at all. What's even more exaggerated is that the dark red liquid was ready to erode his beast soul.
