Chapter 265 The Golden Recipe (two in one chapter)

  Looking at Liu Yu, who had not bowed down, Li Changkong frowned, slightly unhappy in his heart.

   But the left and right are only because the ancestors asked and the sect practice to accept the apprentices, not to inherit what they have learned, so there is no attack.

   "Well, get up."

  Li Changkong raised his hand lightly and said lightly.

   Liu Yu, who lowered his head, only felt a gentle force applied to his body, causing him to straighten up involuntarily.

  Liu Yu restrained her body's instinctive will to resist, and straightened her body obediently.

   "Master, the disciple prepares a small gift as a gift for apprenticeship."

   "The disciple is incompetent, with a little heart, please accept the master with a smile!"

   took out an exquisite jade box made of high-quality Lingyu, Liu Yu took a few steps forward with both hands, placed it on the wooden table respectfully, and returned to the original place.

   Those who were accepted as disciples halfway like them usually prepare some gifts for apprenticeship. The value of the gifts does not have to be high, the key is to show their attitude.

  If you don’t prepare gifts for apprenticeship, you will inevitably fall into trouble, which may leave the impression of unreasonable things on the master, and the relationship between master and apprentice may be estranged from the beginning.

   Considering that in the future, he might borrow the name of its elder to act, so what Liu Yu prepared was a little more expensive.

   The relationship between master and apprentice is not close or far, and the etiquette should be in place.

   This is his policy.

   "Not a pedantic person."

  Li Changkong nodded slightly, then raised his right hand to open a gap in the exquisite jade box, and saw a ginseng plant lying quietly in the box.

   A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he turned his head to take a serious look at Liu Yu.

   Based on his experience, he could easily recognize that this is a five-hundred-year-old ordinary ginseng. It can be used as an adjuvant for some Jindan stage medicine pills, and it has a great effect on the early stage Jindan cultivator.

  Unfortunately, Li Changkong was already in the middle stage of Jindan cultivation, and this five-hundred-year-old ginseng plant was of relatively little value to him.

   But for the foundation-building cultivator, the five-hundred-year-old elixir is still very hard to find, which is enough to show that the cultivator who prepared this gift spent a lot of thought.

   "Yes, I have a heart."

  Li Changkong praised, his voice softened a little, and his impression of Liu Yu changed slightly.

   The aptitude is ordinary, but he has a good talent for alchemy. The most important thing is that he has a deep understanding of world affairs. It is no wonder that he can be valued and recommended by the Yan family.

   "Master is satisfied."

   Liu Yu said respectfully and cautiously.

  This ordinary ginseng is naturally ripened by Xianfu, but after special treatment, it looks like it has been unearthed for ten or twenty years.

   Over the years, he has read so many spiritual herbal books and has dealt with so many spiritual herbs. With his current understanding of spiritual herbs, he may not be as good as a second-tier spiritual planter in terms of planting spiritual herbs.

   But when it comes to "special treatment" for the spirit grass, he admits that he is not inferior to anyone. After all, with the Immortal Mansion in his hand, he can use the spirit grass to practice extravagantly.

   Whether it is from the appearance of the spirit grass, or from the inner vitality, medicinal power, spiritual power and other aspects, there will be no flaws.

   The selection of this kind of ginseng is enough, but it has no special effects. Naturally, it has been carefully considered by Liu Yu.

   Ordinary spirit ginseng has simple growth conditions, and it is planted in many sects. It has no other advantages except that it is a little older, so it is not so rare, and you can always buy it with spirit stones.

   But it is also useful to Jindan cultivators, which is beyond the apprenticeship gifts of other cultivators, but it is not too exaggerated.

   This is also more in line with Liu Yu's character as a second-order alchemist, who is richer than other monks.

   "Since you have accepted the ceremony of apprenticeship, from now on you will be the registered disciple of this seat, so this seat can't help but express."

   "Well, this elixir will be given to you as a gift of meeting."

  Li Changkong waved his hand and put the jade box into the storage ring, then pondered for a while, and took out a booklet about two inches thick.

After   , Li Changkong also thought about dabbling in alchemy to earn spiritual stones, but after some attempts, he found that he had no talent for alchemy.

   Since then, this elixir has been kept in the storage ring, and it has not been read for a hundred or two hundred years.

   Now that I think of the identity of this named disciple as an alchemist, it is appropriate as a meeting ceremony between master and apprentice.

   "Thank you, Master."

   Liu Yu took the elixir book and put it in the storage bag, without flipping through it on the spot.

   But the meeting ceremony of the Jindan cultivator is not too bad, right?

   Next, Li Changkong talked about the rules of his sect, such as not bullying teachers and destroying ancestors, not killing each other among the same sect, and helping each other between brothers and sisters.

  The most important thing is that all the knowledge of cultivating immortals taught by the master should not be taught to other monks without the permission of the master. If there is any violation, the cultivation base will be abolished and the sect will be expelled!

   Not only the secret arts, but all the knowledge of cultivating immortals is valuable!

   These are normal rules, there are no unreasonable terms, Liu Yu naturally agreed.

   At this point, the apprenticeship process is all over, and Liu Yu has officially become a named disciple of Li Changkong's sect.

   Later, through Li Changkong's remarks, Liu Yu learned that his disciples, including himself, had a total of six disciples, three direct disciples and three named disciples.

   They are: Senior Sister Li Buyu, Second Senior Brother Li Bufan, Third Senior Senior Brother Jing Yongqing, Fourth Senior Senior Sister Lu Xue, Fifth Senior Brother Yu Jiang, and finally Liu Yu himself.

   The first three are direct disciples, and the last three are named disciples.

   Among them, the elder sister Li Buyu is the late stage of foundation establishment, not far from the peak of the later stage, and is already preparing for the formation of elixir. The other four senior brothers and sisters have been inducted for 30 years at the latest, and they are all above the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.

   When talking about Li Buyu, Li Changkong smiled, obviously very satisfied with him.

  For some reason, Li Changkong has three more disciples than other Jindan elders.

   "Now your brothers and sisters have important things to do and cannot gather for a while."

   "This seat has sent a message to ask them to take time out. You can come here in two years and get to know each other with several brothers and sisters."

   briefly explained the situation of his disciples, and Li Changkong said the same, and arranged for his disciples to get to know each other.

   In order to avoid the situation that we are both apprentices of the same teacher and do not know each other when we meet in the future.

   "Disciple obeys, I respectfully obey Master's instructions!"

   Liu Yu nodded and replied.

   Being able to get to know other brothers and sisters and increase your network in the door is of course a good thing.

   Both belong to Li Changkong's sect. Compared with other sects of Yuanyang Sect, the brothers and sisters are naturally a bit closer, and it is normal for them to help each other.

   Compared with the master who can directly order the disciples, there is an equal relationship between the brothers and sisters. If there is something to help or refuse, Liu Yu is naturally happy to move around a lot.

   This is also one of the help of apprenticeship.

   "There may be some incomprehensible points in your cultivation. You can bring them up now. I'm free, so I'll answer them for you."

   In the end, Li Changkong touched his beard and said lightly, just waiting for some doubts to be answered before dismissing the named disciple.

   is just a named disciple. Master does not need to prepare cultivation techniques for him, or bestow powerful secret spells, etc.

   Give some pointers, even if you have fulfilled your "duty".

   After all, he accepted apprentices because of the practice of the sect, and chose Liu Yu because of the face of the Yan family. He did not want to inherit his mantle at all, so he had no idea of ​​cultivating well.

   Besides, from Li Changkong's eyes, he could see at a glance that Liu Yu had been building a foundation for twenty or thirty years, and he already had a fundamental cultivation technique, and it was not easy to change it now.

   "When a disciple is cultivating."

   With the opportunity of Jindan cultivator's personal guidance, Liu Yu naturally would not be polite, and immediately asked about the difficulties he encountered in his cultivation one by one.

   Of course, the questions about the fundamental exercises, Qingyang exercises and Yuanshen exercises, are just roundabouts, and will not directly expose these two extraordinary exercises.

   Taking Li Changkong's realm in the middle stage of Jindan, to point out the problems of the early stage of foundation building, almost no need to think about it, it's as simple as eating and drinking.

  Cultivation questions were easily answered, but some questions about spiritual consciousness and primordial spirits, he had to think carefully before he could give an uncertain answer.

   "Okay, that's it for this time."

   "Remember, if you have to do something important, don't disturb your practice, and don't come to Tongtian Peak without a summons!"

   "This syllable can be used to contact this seat. If there is something important, use the syllable to contact you."

   After about two quarters of an hour, seeing that Liu Yu seemed to have many questions, Li Changkong frowned and stopped talking, taking out a sound transmission and placing it on the table.

   "Yes, Master, disciples must remember the teachings."

   Liu Yu put the sound transmission in the storage bag and said respectfully.

   There is no important thing to disturb, and there is something to say with a sound transmission, but only one speech transmission is given. The purpose is self-evident, that is, not to ask him.

   "I really thought of a piece."

   Sure enough, it was the status quo of the named disciples, Liu Yu laughed secretly in his heart, but this was exactly what he wanted.

   "Well, back off."

  Li Changkong made a faint sound, raising his arms and waving slightly.

   In order to complete the task of accepting apprentices given by the ancestors of the sect, he was already a little impatient to spend so much time on a named disciple.

   "Master Wan'an, Xianyun Changlong, the disciple retire."

   Liu Yu saluted again, then slowly walked out of the lotus lake and walked down the mountain.

   The area of ​​the entire Tongtian Peak mountainside is very wide, and there are only about twenty Jindan elders living there, so the area that each elder can occupy is naturally very large.

   In addition to the cave house where he lived and practiced, he also opened up an acre of spiritual fields, and planted some low-level elixir in it.

Tongtian Peak is close to the high-grade spiritual veins of the fourth rank, and the rich spiritual soil of this place is naturally extraordinary. It is very easy to plant some low-grade spiritual medicines. It only needs to send two qi-refining disciples to take care of it a little. There are a lot of spirit stones in the account.

Near the cave are spiritual fields, lakes, buildings, etc., and in the distance are forests, grasslands, and various rare beasts. Many Jindan elders will also build some entertainment venues outside the cave for recreation after practice. .

   Liu Yu walked out of Lianhu Lake and walked all the way down the mountain, and this is what he saw.

  Although I am very interested in the only fourth-order spiritual mountain in this sect, I want to take a look, but when I think that all the cultivators living here are Jindan cultivators, I feel quite uncomfortable.

   The Immortal Mansion and the Mysterious Law of Preservation are extremely precious. He has a lot of secrets. If it is leaked, it will definitely lead to death. If you can't contact the high-level monks, try not to contact them.

  Thinking like this, Liu Yu stepped up and walked down the mountain.

  The elders and the ancestors all live here, so during the foundation-building period of Tongtian Peak, monks were not allowed to fly, and they could only walk on two legs when going up and down the mountain.

   After half an hour, Liu Yu came to Zhenyang Dojo again.

   At this time, the crowd had dispersed, and the high platform in the center of the dojo sank again. Qian Zhijin and Cui Liang were nowhere to be seen. In the building to the east, there were still twenty or thirty foundation-building cultivators staying.

   On the other hand, the visiting monks from Waning Moon Valley and Piaoxue Pavilion were still there, as if they were waiting for their real people, but they definitely couldn’t run around in the mountain gate of Yuanyang Sect.

   Liu Yu observed it silently for a while, then took out the Soul Chasing Blade, turned into a black light, and flew towards the Cailian Mountain cave.

   He breathed a sigh of relief at this time. After all, there is a secret technique for concealing one's cultivation, so naturally there is a secret technique for exploring.

  Although the third layer of concealment technique claims to be able to hide a monk from a high realm, if the other party happens to practice a special secret technique of exploration, it is hard to say whether it can still be hidden.

   Attributes can restrain each other, spells can restrain each other, and secret techniques naturally restrain each other, so Liu Yu has always been cautious about the effects of hidden spirits, not blindly believing them.

  Three hours later, Cailian Mountain was in sight, and a woman in a purple dress and a silver hairpin hovered in front of the cave.

   Who else is Jiang Qiushui!

  Liu Yu fell down and opened the formation, grabbed his waist and walked into the cave.

  … (one thousand words that cannot be described)

  After the incident, the two of them sat opposite each other in the hall, and Jiang Qiushui started to make spirit tea.

   "Senior brother, this is the income of Jade Dantang in Jinxingfang City for half a year, please check it out."

  After brewing the spirit tea and pouring a cup for Liu Yu, Jiang Qiu slid down a storage bag around her waist. At this time, there was still a faint red tide on her face that did not subside.

  Because the Yuanyang Zongshan Gate in Jinxingfang City is far away, it is inconvenient to travel, and there are other reasons, so now it is changed to report the situation once a year.

   "Eight Thousand Spirit Stones"

  Liu Yu picked up the storage bag and swept it away, instantly counted the number inside, and then frowned slightly.

   I remember when it opened a year ago, he put 20 bottles of Jing Yuan Dan in it, but now after deducting the various consumptions of the store, there is only a profit of 8,000 spirit stones.

   This made him a little dissatisfied.

Each bottle of Jingyuan Dan is 450, and 20 bottles are 9,000 spirit stones, and there is still a thousand spirit stones missing. Does this mean that Jinxingfang City can't even make ends meet, and it all depends on its own level two Pill holding up?

   "The market competition in Jinxingfang City is more intense. Not long ago, an alchemist was reluctantly hired, and his alchemy skills are very general, so very few cultivators come to our store to buy elixirs."

   "Furthermore, my annual salary is also included in the consumption."

   Seeing Liu Yu's unhappy expression, Jiang Qiushui bit his red lips and explained, with a slight grievance in his words.

  Alchemists with good alchemy skills are always in demand, and one year is too short.

   Thinking of this, Liu Yu frowned and stretched out, and ordered:

   "In that case, let's select one of the two alchemists in the Renhefang City store."

   "The current alchemist in Jinxingfang City, if he is willing to sign a long-term special contract, then we can train him. If he is unwilling, let him leave."

   "At the same time, don't stop recruiting. There are also acquisitions of various second-order spirit grasses, and they will start after returning."

   A alchemist was sent over, and he should barely be able to maintain a balance of income and expenditure. As for Sun Jule's unwillingness, that is not in the scope of consideration.

   For his subordinates, Liu Yu has always been unequivocal.

  Acquiring various second-order spirit grasses can cover up the source of the spirit grass for alchemy and reduce the risk of people who are interested in discovering the abnormality. Currently, both stores are purchasing spirit grasses, and the amount and amount are completely confidential. Other monks can’t see through the truth.

   Even so, when the spirit stone reaches fifty thousand, Liu Yu will reduce the flow of second-order medicinal herbs.

  Including the seven bottles traded with the Yan family, a maximum of twenty bottles flow out every year, and the number of external reports is even less. Anyway, it is not easy to check the ones in Jinxingfang City.

   As many medicinal herbs are sold, Liu Yu earns as many spirit stones, because he does not have a very high cost of spirit herbs like other alchemists.

   "Okay, I'll listen to my brother's orders."

  Jiang Qiushui said softly, with a docile attitude.

   After being promoted to Foundation Establishment, her worth has skyrocketed. Because she has planted the Primordial Spirit Restriction, she is more at ease, so currently, a bottle of Essence Essence Pill every year is definitely better than many Foundation Establishment cultivators.

   In addition to the salary of the sect, one mid-grade spirit stone per year, and one bottle of essence essence pill every three years, is definitely more prosperous than most foundation-building cultivators.

   Afterwards, the two talked about some shop issues, and Jiang Qiushui also asked about the result of the apprenticeship ceremony. When he learned that Liu Yu was favored by the real person in the sky, he was both surprised and happy and took it for granted.

   "If you have nothing to do, you can go back to the store."

   Half an hour later, Liu Yu picked up the teacup and said lightly, the meaning is very obvious.

   "Have you returned to the shop so soon? I want to stay a little longer."

   Looking at this very familiar person in front of him, Jiang Qiushui said softly with resentment in his eyes.

   seems to signal some kind of "movement".

   But she was destined to be disappointed, Liu Yu was expressionless and unmoved, in a state like a saint and a Buddha.

   Disappointment flashed across Jiang Qiushui's face. He pursed his lips and had to stand up and slowly walked out of the cave, pausing several times.

  After Jiang Qiushui left, Liu Yu activated the formation to guard the cave, and then took out the elixir book from Li Changkong from the storage bag and checked it carefully.

   "Jie Jin Dan Dan Fang?"
