"You kid! I'm ...... Hey, you're going to get into trouble if you do that!"

Beside me, an old man with a white beard and white hair, pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, scratching his ears and cheeks was in a hurry, but he was helpless.

And I, sitting on the edge of my Dan furnace, changed the fingers of my hands one after another, playing one magic trick after another, and I was engrossed in controlling the refining of more than ten kinds of rare spirit grasses by the flames in the Dan furnace.

At this time, I was refining a high-grade elixir, the Condensing Pill.

The Divine Concentration Pill has the special effect of enhancing divine consciousness, taking one pill can increase one's divine consciousness by 5%-50%, depending on the individual's situation, and it is useful in the refining period and below the realm.

If the personal divine consciousness itself is very strong, then the effect will be weaker, but the personal divine consciousness is naturally weak, then the maximum can make the personal divine consciousness increase by half in a very short period of time, of course, this extremely short time is relative, that is also a few months of refining, and these months are already very short for a cultivator.

The spirit grass spirit materials needed to refine this elixir are very rare, and it is indeed very difficult to get these materials together on the earth.

But for me, these materials are really nothing, even if I have to put together a dozen sets in one go, it is feasible, after all, the previous collection did not consume much at all, and there are many high-grade materials.

However, for the anxious old man beside me, it is a tyrannical thing, not to mention that I have not strictly refined the medicinal materials in the way he said, but in the way I have been used to in the past few years.

This old man with white hair was met by chance when I was traveling in the 100,000 Mountains to learn the way of alchemy, and he lived alone in a remote place deep in the mountains, concentrating on cultivation, but he spent more time on alchemy.

The old man's name is He Hongbo, his personality is eccentric, and his strength is also very high, reaching the realm of the late Yuan Infant stage.

I was also very surprised when I found him, at first I thought he was a hermit master, but when I saw that he was alchemy, I stopped, and after a long exchange, I had some common language with him, and then under the attack of my cherished spirit grass, he agreed to teach me alchemy, and I stayed here.

At this time, the elixir I refined consumed a lot of precious spiritual materials, and I didn't do what he said, which naturally made him blow his beard and stare at him, and he was helpless.

Shadow snorted: "I said old man Bai, don't worry, my brother may not fail, really." ”

He Hongbo's eyes widened: "What do you little girl know? Once this stinky boy misses, this pile of rare medicinal materials will be over!"

"Look at you like that? really, if it's gone, it's gone, how normal alchemy failures are, if you succeed every time, wouldn't the value of an alchemist be very low?" Shadow glanced at him, unmoved.

The reason why He Hongbo is so anxious is that he feels sorry for the materials and is afraid of destroying them, he has been here for I don't know how many years, he rarely goes out, and there are not so many precious materials on the earth for him to find, so the materials in his hands are naturally few and few, and it is reasonable to feel distressed.

The shadow is very different, following me over the years, I have seen countless chaotic spirit grass spirit materials, and now there is a small pile of spirit grass in her collection that she can't name and has not taken out, if she takes it out, it is estimated that He Hongbo will immediately ask for it.

One person and one ghost were arguing on the side, and I wholeheartedly refined the elixir in the furnace, melted those medicinal materials and refined them into a medicinal liquid, and then according to my personal habit, I began to extract each medicinal liquid with a faint light and then tried to fuse it.

Immediately afterward, a faint cracking sound began to come from inside the Dan furnace.

Although the voice was small, He Hongbo still heard it clearly, and he pointed at me and scolded me for being a loser.

I looked back at him angrily: "What's the hurry? I'm just experimenting, do you understand the experiment?"

"Ha, haha, old man, I have lived for thousands of years, and the first time I heard that someone had an experiment when he was alchemizing, you and I were a three-year-old child?!" He Hongbo laughed angrily.

Ying'er hugged her arms and said angrily: "Please shut up, my brother is alchemizing, you can't learn his techniques, and I'll fight with you when I'm done, now, immediately, you, shut up!

He Hongbo's face suddenly turned red, and he was about to quarrel again, and the shadow directly turned into a black mist to wrap him, and then threw him directly into the corner, although he was still struggling and noisy in it, but the sound of the shadow returning to my side had been completely isolated.

"It's really dry, brother, go on, no one bothers you now. Shadow clapped her hands.

I laughed and said, "Don't play with people." ”

"It's okay, I'm watching. ”

"That's good. ”

I nodded, and continued to refine the elixir.

When I first came into contact with alchemy, the failure rate was indeed very high, but later after I fused some of the experience on the alchemy, I found that this alchemy actually has a variety of ways to improve the success rate, as long as the strength is high enough and the spiritual power is strong enough, then you can do whatever you want.

With the failure of the faint light extraction and fusion again and again, gradually I began to have a number of successes, but the failure rate was still very high.

It took three days and three nights, and the various medicinal liquids I wrapped with spiritual power in the Dan furnace were also extracted by me hundreds of times, using up about one-third of each one, although the amount was small, the proportion did not change, and the impact was not great.

And in these hundreds of experimental fusions, my success rate is getting higher and higher, and I have fused some very small pills out, and I have also let Ying Er try it, it is indeed effective, it seems that there is no problem with my direction and approach.

It wasn't until I had consumed more than half of the ingredients in the furnace that the success rate had reached the desired level, and I began to fuse all the ingredients one by one.

As streams of different colored medicinal liquids fused together, the temperature in the Dan furnace began to gradually increase by me, allowing the juice of these medicinal materials to fully merge and condense.

The final condensation took me half an hour of effort, and I was meticulous and didn't dare to be careless, so that the materials left over from the experiment in the Dan furnace were refined into two condensing pills, one large and one small.

According to what He Hongbo said before, this Ning Shen Dan is glowing with a layer of light blue as a whole, and the essence is blue, if there is a misty blue light, it is a high-grade pill, if not, it is a medium-grade pill, if the surface does not look smooth, it is a lower grade, if the color changes too much, it is a defective product, if there is no medicinal fragrance, it is a waste product, and there is no difference between it and a furnace of waste slag.

With a wave of my hand, the Dan furnace slammed open, and the two pills rushed out, and I reached out and grabbed them, and shot the two pills into my hands.

At this time, the shadow also let go of He Hongbo, and He Hongbo ran over scolding, pointing to the Dan furnace and shouting: "Look at it, look at it, blow it up...... Huh?"

He was stunned for a moment, then his eyes moved to my hand, and he was shocked: "It's done?"

"Hey, I said, you old man, do you want to be beaten?!" the shadow suddenly waved her fist and was about to float over.

He Hongbo hurriedly waved his hand: "Shadow girl misunderstood, misunderstood! This, this me, you are a ghost, hey, I'm not smooth! Hey, hey, I said boy, let me see!"

As he spoke, he was about to reach out and grab the elixir in my hand.

I didn't stop him, I let him take the two pills to check, but said with a smile: "Take a look, see if it's the same as what you practiced before." ”

When this elixir came out, there was a smell of medicinal fragrance scattered everywhere, and smelling it would make people feel refreshed, but what kind of quality it was, it still had to be judged by He Hongbo after reading it, after all, he was the only one here who had refined and taken this high-grade elixir.

He Hongbo took the pill and examined it carefully, and asked me in disbelief, "How did you do it? The size of these two pills is so different, and this is ......?"

He ran to the edge of the Dan furnace and observed it for a while, and was even more incomprehensible: "No, there is no residual medicine residue, what's the situation?"

Ying Er spread out her hand, she still held more than a dozen condensing pills in her hand, which were only the size of millet grains, and she snorted: "I said everything, you won't." ”

"This is ......" He Hongbo returned the two pills to me, took the more than ten smiling pills in Ying'er's hand and looked at them for a moment, his face shocked: "How is this possible?!"

"What's impossible? I said you're stupid for alchemy, aren't you?" said Shadow angrily.

He Hongbo turned a deaf ear, just looked at the tiny pill in his hand, muttered to himself for a while, and then returned the pill to Ying'er, grabbed my arm and asked, "Teach me!"

I slapped his hand away and smiled, "What's the matter? Don't you say that I have a problem with the refining process?"

"No problem, I think you should have practiced countless times directly in the Dan furnace through some secret method, and those small pills are the best proof, and then fuse the remaining materials to refine, otherwise there will not be only one big and one small after the alchemy is successful, and the quality looks good." ”

I looked at the elixir in my hand, gave the small one to Shadow, and then put away the big one.

"You're right, I did separate the materials, but to do so, you need to have a strong enough divine sense, to put it simply, it is to use the divine consciousness to control the spiritual power to separate the materials, and use the same amount of materials to smelt again and again, and the control of the flames also needs to be adjusted from time to time, and at the same time, you need to protect the remaining materials, so that the backyard will not catch fire when you separate a part of your divine consciousness to do other things. ”

He Hongbo was stunned, then frowned and turned to the corner to sit down and think.

I shrugged my shoulders when I saw him like this, and I began to recover.

He Hongbo has been here for thousands of years, he is a Dan idiot, although his talent is not high, but this hard work has given him a high attainment in the way of alchemy.

The refining of this Condensing Pill would not be difficult for him, and even had a success rate of more than half, but now that he had discovered a new continent with me, the new refining method made him fall into contemplation.

A few days later, I recovered my mana and slept for a day and a night, and my mental power was completely recovered, and when I got up, I found that He Hongbo was squatting in the corner and thinking hard.

I really couldn't help but say, "I said, what is the use of your old boy's just thinking? Isn't it okay to open a furnace of low-grade pills and try it? Just think, you can't think of a reason for this life, stupid!"

He Hongbo was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and turned his head to look at me: "It's not that, what I think is, there are some materials, such as this." ”

As soon as he raised his hand, a transparent bottle of emerald green that was reflected appeared in the palm of his hand, and a drop of crystal liquid like jade was slowly rotating in the bottle.

I wondered, "What is this?"

"Huh, it's so strong that the spiritual power fluctuates, and it seems that there is still a breath of life coming out of it. The shadow floated over in some surprise.

He Hongbo shrank his hand, "Don't move, this is a baby!"

The shadow gave him a blank look: "I'll just take a look, don't move you, see you stingy like that?"

I looked closely, and did find life fluctuations, and I wondered, "What is this?"

He Hongbo smiled, "This is a spiritual thing, it can also be called a wood spirit, and after it is formed, it will produce a weak spiritual intelligence, which is extremely rare." It contains a very strong life force, and it is a material that cannot be obtained for refining some pills. ”

"That's right. I scratched my head.

"Just now I was thinking about several alchemy materials that are fundamentally struggling, such as this wood spirit, it does not need to be refined, but is fused into it when the pill is about to take shape, this can't be constantly tested with your kind of technique, once a part of it is peeled off from it, then it will begin to dissipate quickly. ”

I swept over the wood spirit with my divine sense, and wondered, "Can't lock it?"

"I'm afraid it won't work, this kind of wood spirit is a special existence, and there are also some materials that are used when refining some relatively rare pills. ”

I shrugged: "Then I don't know, but you can at least understand the previous steps clearly, reduce the failure rate in the front, and the possibility of success in the back will increase infinitely, a truth." ”

"This is also in order, and I will deduce and deduce. ”

He Hongbo put away the wood spirit and went back to the corner.

I said why he didn't do it, it turned out that he was deducing in the sea of knowledge.

It is also possible to do this, only need to consume mental energy, but it is far from the effect of practice, and it is better to save.

Speaking of which, I have been here with He Hongbo for more than a year and have learned a lot of things, but I know that he still has things at the bottom of the box that he hasn't taken out, but I didn't chase after something to learn before, and now there is nothing to learn, so I naturally want to squeeze out the things at the bottom of his box.

"Hey, I said you, don't think about it yet, can you take out those Danfangs and take a look?" I said with a smile.
