Chapter 468

Hearing this, Valley Master Nie suddenly understood. That's right, Zhang Xiaohua didn't mention any conditions at the beginning. She just wanted to use the pill recipe to refine pills. As long as she was familiar with the pill recipe, she would be able to refine the Crimson Flame Pill easily.

At this time, Elder Zhang smiled and said, "Since Hero Ren already has a plan, why don't you demonstrate to me how to refine pills using the ancient method?

I read in the book that it was extremely baffling. You must have seen the Valley Master refine pills. We don't even know how to control the temperature freely. "

Zhang Xiaohua glanced at Valley Master Nie and saw him make a "please" gesture. Zhang Xiaohua nodded slightly and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Nie to prepare the herbs."

Valley Master Nie also laughed and said, "I've already prepared them."

After saying that, he instructed the disciples outside the bamboo house to bring in some of the herbs that had just been dug out.

Zhang Xiaohua sighed inwardly, "These old people are all shrewd. They knew that Elder Zhang might not believe them and had already prepared them."

Elder Zhang was also very happy to see this. What he saw just now was the formation of the pills, but how the pills were formed was even more important. As the ancients said, "Care about the process, don't just focus on the results."

Elder Zhang quickly said, "Hero Ren, behind my bamboo house is the pill room. It's also one of the earliest pill rooms in Rejuvenation Valley. Do you think it's suitable?"

Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "Elder Zhang, you're a senior in the alchemy world. Don't be so polite with me."

"You're too kind. Since you're better at alchemy than me, I should respect you." Elder Zhang shook his head and said, "Moreover, you're magnanimous and can be called a hero."

"But, your attainments in the field of medicinal herbs are far beyond this junior's reach." Zhang Xiaohua admired Elder Zhang's hard work.

Hearing this, Elder Zhang was very stunned and said in surprise, "I didn't expect Hero Ren to be able to see so far. You really know me well. I only knew this when I was very old."

Zhang Xiaohua was speechless. 'That's right, you have all kinds of books on medicinal herbs and know all kinds of alchemy techniques. What about me?'

After obtaining the Pill Forging Technique but not knowing the names of the ancient medicinal herbs, one would naturally realize the importance of studying medicinal herbs.

Then, Elder Zhang walked to the side of the table and picked up the ancient book on medicinal herbs that he had written. He respectfully handed it to Zhang Xiaohua and said, "This book is a little bit of this old man's painstaking research. I hope Hero Ren can correct it."

Zhang Xiaohua also took it with a serious expression and said solemnly, "I don't dare to say anything. Senior Zhang, this junior is lacking in this aspect. I should learn it well."

Zhang Xiaohua received the ancient book and carefully placed it in her bosom. Only then did she enter Elder Zhang's pill room under his lead.

This pill room was similar to Zhang Xiaohua's small pill room. However, there were two cauldrons, one large and one small, placed in a groove.

Elder Zhang pointed at the larger cauldron and said, "This is the cauldron that this old man used in his early years. The earth fire below it is also first-rate. Hero Ren, take a look and see if you can use it."

Zhang Xiaohua actually didn't care, but she still politely went forward to take a look. That cauldron was no different from Valley Master Nie's. After she finished looking, she very casually looked at the smaller cauldron at the side. She suddenly discovered to her surprise that the cauldron didn't have two protrusions like the other cauldrons.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Xiaohua pointed at the small cauldron and asked, "Elder Zhang, don't you use this cauldron?"

Elder Zhang took a look and said with a smile, "This small cauldron was already here when my Rejuvenation Valley's ancestors discovered this pill room. Didn't I just say that this old man's pill room was one of the earliest pill rooms to be used? The things inside basically haven't changed. Even the cauldron and the earth fire below it haven't been touched.

The earth fire and cauldrons in the other pill rooms have all been modified. However, this cauldron doesn't have any protrusions to control the temperature, so it's not suitable for use. This old man only tried it out at the beginning and didn't use it anymore. "

When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, her heart stirred. She slowly walked to the front of the cauldron and poked her head out to take a closer look. Indeed, the inside and outside of this cauldron were almost exactly the same as the cauldron in her money pouch. When she used her divine sense to examine it again, she saw that there weren't any incantations inside the cauldron. Only some of the formations engraved inside the cauldron were the same as her cauldron.

There was no need to guess. This cauldron was certainly a cauldron used by an immortal dao pill refiner, just like Zhang Xiaohua's cauldron.

A trace of a smile appeared on the corners of Zhang Xiaohua's mouth. What a coincidence. It was best to use an immortal dao cauldron to refine the Crimson Flame Pill, and Zhang Xiaohua's cauldron wasn't suitable for public use. Elder Zhang's cauldron that had never been used before was just right for her to use.

Presumably, Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "This junior has also never seen a cauldron like this. If there's a chance, I would also like to try it out."

Elder Zhang said, "Anytime, anytime. If this cauldron wasn't used by Rejuvenation Valley's ancestors, and if it wasn't for the fact that you can't take it away, then what harm is there in giving it to you?"

Zhang Xiaohua cupped her hands and said, "I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare. This is Senior's relic, so it's best to treasure it."

Finished speaking, she walked in front of the large cauldron and skillfully turned on the earth fire to preheat the cauldron. Looking at the medicinal herbs on the ground, she said with a smile, "Uncle Nie seems to want this nephew to refine the White Nightmare Pill?"

Valley Master Nie clapped his hands and praised, "Virtuous Nephew Ren has indeed reached a higher level in the dao of pills. You've also carefully read the pill recipe that this old man had Little Yu give you. Virtuous Nephew is correct. These medicinal herbs are white chrysanthemum and black gold grass. There are also a few other ingredients that are used to refine the White Nightmare Pill."

Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile, "Uncle Nie is testing this nephew. This nephew has only seen the pill recipe a few times. If I mess up today, the two seniors won't laugh at me."

Finished speaking, she no longer held back and placed her left hand on top of the cauldron. She transferred her vital energy over and carefully controlled the temperature of the cauldron. In fact, how could using vital energy to control the cauldron and then the fire be as convenient as directly casting the spell onto the earth fire?

When the temperature was suitable, Zhang Xiaohua placed the white chrysanthemum, black gold grass, and other medicinal herbs in order according to the pill recipe. In order to let Elder Zhang take a closer look and also to conceal something, Zhang Xiaohua controlled the temperature to not be too high. After a long while, the dark brown medicinal powder was gradually refined successfully. When Zhang Xiaohua's hands left the cauldron, Elder Zhang quickly walked forward and took out the medicinal powder from the bottom of the cauldron. He carefully looked at it. Just like before, he put some powder into his mouth and tasted it carefully. Zhang Xiaohua was sweating. This White Nightmare Pill had some aphrodisiac strengthening effects. If something happened to Elder Zhang, what should she do?

After carefully examining it, Elder Zhang said, "Actually, it's not that I have doubts in my heart. It's just that seeing is believing and hearing is false. Now that I've seen Hero Ren refine pills with my own eyes, I know that I was a frog in a well. I didn't think that there would be such alchemy skills outside of Rejuvenation Valley."

Zhang Xiaohua shook her head and said, "This method is actually a martial art. It has nothing to do with alchemy."

Elder Zhang and Valley Head Nie looked at each other in surprise. What kind of martial art was this? It actually had such an effect.

Immediately, Elder Zhang's eyes were somewhat fiery as he asked, "Hero Ren, this … this method, when will you teach me?"

Zhang Xiaohua said, "I've already said it just now. I've already copied this method to Uncle Nie and asked him to take it out for you to comprehend. Oh right, it's still the same sentence. This method is very important and must not be leaked. It will bring disaster to your noble valley."

"Ah?" Valley Head Nie was somewhat surprised and said, "Is it that serious?"

Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "If Uncle Nie feels that it's inappropriate, then return the method to me."

Valley Head Nie looked at Elder Zhang. Both of their eyes were resolute.

Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua said again, "Although this method is not easy to leak, Uncle Nie and Elder Zhang only refine pills in Rejuvenation Valley. Even if others see it with their own eyes, they may not know the secret. It's fine as long as no one knows about the method."

Valley Head Nie and Elder Zhang both nodded and said, "We also have the same idea."

"It's just that …" Elder Zhang was a little worried and said, "If I were to refine pills using the ancient method, wouldn't those old bastards beside me and the Valley Master's senior brothers be jealous when they see it?"

Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "This is something that Uncle Nie and Senior Zhang have to consider."

"Oh, right, Elder Zhang, this junior wants to take this small cauldron furnace and study it. Oh, don't worry, I'm just trying it out in the pill room. I won't take it out of the valley."

Elder Zhang thought for a moment and said, "Yes, Hero Ren, be careful. Just don't break it."

Zhang Xiaohua secretly laughed, "It would be strange if this immortal item could be so easily damaged."

Valley Head Nie called a few disciples outside the room to send the small cauldron to Zhang Xiaohua's pill room.

Zhang Xiaohua asked Elder Zhang a few more questions about medicinal herbs and then cupped her hands and said, "Seniors, this junior is a bit tired and will go back to rest for a while. Elder Zhang might as well ask Uncle Nie about the method of cultivation. If there are any questions, this junior will come tomorrow to clear them up."

Elder Zhang's face bloomed with a smile and said, "No need, if this old man has anything he doesn't understand, I'll ask you later."

Zhang Xiaohua hesitated and said, "This junior sleeps very hard and may not hear Elder Zhang's call."

Valley Head Nie said, "No matter, I've also practiced for a while. Presumably, today is enough to discuss with Elder Zhang. If there's anything, we can talk about it tomorrow."

Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said goodbye to the two and returned to her pill room.

In the pill room, the small cauldron had already been placed next to the groove, along with the remaining medicinal herbs. Zhang Xiaohua only looked at it casually and then sat cross-legged on the bed. With a face full of excitement, she took out the thin jade slip that she had obtained from Elder Zhang and immersed her divine sense into it.

What came into her mind were four ancient characters, 《Hundred Herbs Compendium》!

Previously, when she was in Elder Zhang's room, she didn't look at it carefully. Now that she looked at it carefully, Zhang Xiaohua's smile became wider and wider. This 《Hundred Herbs Compendium》 didn't just record one hundred types of medicinal herbs. It recorded many types of medicinal herbs, their medicinal effects, and their growing environment.
