Chapter 61: Bad Alchemy Talent

The reason why the rune master has a respected status is not only because of their strange spiritual power attack methods, but more importantly, the two main branches of the rune master, the Dan master and the formation master. With his powerful spiritual power, the Dan Master can easily control the flame quenching elixir to condense into a Dan, and the Array Master can lay down the array seal to outline the formation pattern and fuse it into a formation, which is not to say that Qi cultivation cannot refine the Dan and set up the array, but there is no unique condition like the Rune Master, and the upper limit is extremely low. Of course, the Dan Master and the Formation Master have extended many branches, such as Xu Ranzi and Shen Tuzhi, the two pharmacists, Lin Hao also heard Xuan Lao say that there is a rune that can be carved on the monk's body to enhance all aspects of the monk's attributes, and obtain incredible ability Rune Master, for example, Xuan Lao has seen that a rune master carves runes on his body to enhance defense, and resists the enemy who is a whole realm higher than his own cultivation to strike with all his strength, and then escapes from the heavens, Lin Hao is also secretly speechless after hearing this, of course, this is only a small part of the rune master's differentiation ability, the entire continent is related to spiritual power, and the cultivation methods derived are strange。 The bizarre world depicted in Xuan Lao's mouth made Lin Hao quite fascinated.

After studying with Xuan Lao, a Dan Dao master, for so long, and being shocked by the various unbelievable abilities of the pill, Lin Hao had the yearning to become a Dan master very early, especially when he learned that there were pills that could help his grandfather reshape the dantian, restore his cultivation, and help the fourth uncle grow a stump, his goal was even firmer.

Before Xuan Lao and Lin Hao talked about the knowledge of the Dan Dao system, shocked the breadth and profundity of the Dan Dao, and also gave him a deeper understanding of the Dan Dao, in addition to Xuan Lao also gave Lin Hao a book that recorded most of the medicinal materials and heavenly treasures of the Fallen God Continent, let him study, this book is very old, extremely thick, from the appearance of the medicinal materials, the characteristics, the effect, to the way of identification, the age of the medicine, the growth environment, the precautions for picking, it can be said that there is everything, extremely detailed, Lin Hao got the book, all kinds of medicinal materials on it are strange, and the unpredictable effect makes him addicted to it, unable to extricate himself, I have to say, As a once famous rune master on the mainland, Xuan Lao still has some genuine goods in his hands.

When Lin Hao returned the book to Xuan Lao a week later, saying that he had mastered all the medicinal materials in the book, Xuan Lao was startled, and hurriedly said several medicinal materials, and tested Lin Hao, but Lin Hao's answer was like a stream, and the knowledge of all aspects of medicinal materials came easily, which made Xuan Lao believe that he really received a demon, you must know that when his master gave him this book, it took him a whole year to barely write down all the medicinal materials in the book, and he was praised by the master as a genius, "This ......" , Lin Hao didn't know why he was able to remember so quickly, in addition to his strong spiritual power and unparalleled memory, he felt that his affinity for these medicinal materials was the key, as if these medicinal materials were born into his bones and were born for him, of course, he thought that this might be an illusion of his own, so he naturally didn't take it to heart.

"Well, that's barely good. Xuan Lao cheekily warned Lin Hao that he still had to work hard, and then asked Lin Hao to refine a simple medicinal liquid, although this medicinal liquid required very few techniques, but it could lay a solid foundation for Lin Hao to prepare for refining medicine.

In the afternoon, Lin Hao went to the medicine hall and asked Cheng Lao for a lot of medicinal materials, and then returned to his residence, adjusted his state, and prepared for alchemy.

When Lin Hao reached the peak state of his spirit, it was already late at night, and he took out the unsightly Dan furnace from the Fang Market from the storage ring, Lin Hao put the fire spirit array handed over to him by Xuan Lao into the Dan furnace, and felt the dim flames burning in the Dan furnace, Lin Hao looked serious.

The grade of the pill is the same as the classification of martial arts, it is also divided into four levels of heaven, earth, Xuan and Huang, and each level is divided into the lower, middle and upper three grades, it is said that there is still a holy level pill above the heavenly level, and the pill is called the holy pill, the holy medicine has a spirit, it has long been beyond the category of ordinary pills, it can be transformed into different forms, it has considerable wisdom, and even some of the pills can also be transformed into human shapes, practice human exercises, and become enlightened, which can no longer be defined by pills, it can be said that the pills are an alternative kind of creatures, and each pill takes over the creation of heaven and earth, all of which have the power of resurrecting the dead, reversing yin and yang, and being unpredictableEvery time the holy medicine is born, it will suffer from the catastrophe of heaven and earth, this catastrophe is different from the thunder tribulation suffered by the heaven-level pill, it seems to be fierce but there is a glimmer of life, and the heaven-level pill that survives the pill will capture a trace of heaven and earth halo from the pill, and the effect is doubled, this pill is completely the blessing of heaven and earth, and the catastrophe of heaven and earth suffered by the holy medicine is pure destruction.

And the reason why Xuan Lao's status in the entire continent was respected during his lifetime was because he was the only quasi-saint level Dan master on the continent, and he had refined a quasi-holy medicine, and when he said this, Xuan Lao looked proud. In the entire history of the Fallen God Continent, it is not that there has been no quasi-Saint Rank Dan Master, from the ancient books excavated by people in the ancient sites and the historical records handed down by some ancient families, in the ancient times when the martial arts and Dan Dao were extremely prosperous, there were genuine Saint Rank Dan Masters, and there was even more than one, but later the ancient catastrophe descended on the Fallen God Continent, almost all the Dan Dao inheritance was destroyed in one fell swoop, the entire Fallen God Continent's vitality god, the entire heaven and earth environment suffered great changes, and it was difficult to breed the heavenly and earthly treasures that could refine the holy medicine. The influence of the two aspects has caused it difficult for the entire continent to give birth to a saint-level pill, and Xuan Lao can rely on his talent to practice the quasi-saint-level pill in this context, he has this capital pride, and even in Xuan Lao's heart, if his cultivation can go further, then he may be able to break through the shackles of heaven and earth and practice the holy medicine, instead of the quasi-holy medicine, but he is afraid of the power of the heaven and earth catastrophe when the holy medicine is born and some small troubles, he will retreat to the next best thing and refine the quasi-holy medicine, which is the regret of his life, but it is a pity that he traveled all over the world for that alchemy, went in and out of various dangerous monuments and secret realms, and died a life, It took a lot of hard work to barely get together the medicinal materials needed to refine the holy medicine. Perhaps from that time onwards, there will be no more holy medicines on the entire continent.

After listening to Xuan Lao's deeds, Lin Hao was shocked inexplicably, the image of this bad old man who had already collapsed in his heart became tall again, although he could not appreciate the magic of the holy medicine, but it did not prevent him from admiring Xuan Lao and yearning for the Holy Rank Danshi, that is equivalent to creating life, creating life, in Lin Hao's consistent cognition, it is the ability that the supreme god can control.

Lin Hao was a little curious about the whereabouts of the quasi-holy medicine, but Xuan Lao's expression was a little ugly, and he was silent for a long time before he said, "Stinky boy, don't be too ambitious, I'll tell you when your strength is up." It seems that the destruction of Xuan Lao's physical body has nothing to do with that quasi-holy medicine, and Lin Hao didn't ask again.

This time, Lin Hao wants to try to refine the Yellow Rank Pill Huiyuan Dan, this kind of pill is a big road, the role is to quickly replenish the vitality of the Xuanyuan Realm martial artists, almost every Dan Master will refine, simple but the techniques required in the refining process are very perfect, and it can well hone the ability of novice Dan masters, so Hui Yuan Dan is the first choice for almost all Dan masters in the initial stage of refining, Lin Hao is no exception, at this time, his mind keeps flashing the refining process of Hui Yuan Dan, precautions.

In fact, below the Holy Rank, most of the pill refining processes are similar, with three main steps: extracting essence, condensing embryos, and carving arrays.

Extraction, as the name suggests, is to extract the essence of the herbs, which involves the time, order, quantity and temperature of the flame.

Condensation embryo, simply put, is to integrate the essence of various medicinal materials into one, condensed into the prototype of the elixir, it is simple to say, but in fact, the condensation embryo is the most difficult link in the alchemy step, there is a conflict and repulsion between the different medicinal properties of various different medicinal materials, want to fuse them perfectly, it is a test of the Danshi's fire control ability and refining techniques, through the delicate change of the temperature of the flame and the handprint to skillfully resolve the problem of the medicinal properties of the medicinal materials conflict, and even if the problem of the medicinal properties of the medicinal materials is solved and condensed into the Dan embryo, the final Cheng Dan may not necessarily have the effect it should have, because all the medicinal materials in the Cheng Dan that can play a role are not simply fused togetherHow to combine the medicinal properties of various medicinal materials to exert the corresponding effect, the skills and methods are extremely critical.

After carving the array and condensing into a pill embryo, some high-level pills need to carve a formation inside the pill to assist the pill to exert its corresponding effect, such as locking the aura to maintain the activity of the pill, or condensing the medicinal power to improve the effect of the pill, etc. In addition, some peculiar pills or some Dan Dao inheritances even have to carry out a step called spirit extraction on the basis of the carved array, which can extract the spiritual rhyme of heaven and earth and inject the pill, improve the grade of the pill, and even turn decay into magic, and turn the waste pill into a spirit pill, which is really wonderful, but this method is too against the sky, and the refined pill and the pill master will encounter a more powerful thunder tribulation, which also causes the means of soul extraction to become taboo, and the inheritance is almost cut off. Moreover, not all the refining of the pill will go through these three stages, the world, there are no wonders, there is even a pill conceived by heaven and earth in history, which was become an immortal medicine by later generations, when it was born, a vision fell from the sky, causing a multi-party force to fight, and for a time set off a bloody storm on the entire continent, but then this elixir was not obtained by any of the forces, and it is said that this pill finally turned into a golden light, breaking through this world and escaping.

Such a secret is too far away for Lin Hao now, and Quan listened to it as a story, but this kind of bizarre thing has broadened his horizons, so that his cognition of the pill is no longer confined to a single form, which is also the reason why Xuan Lao tirelessly told Lin Hao these anecdotes that seemed to have no nutrition.

Refining an elixir, in addition to the incomparably precious pills, such a tedious and meticulous project naturally requires strong spiritual support, which is why only a rune master can become a high-level pill master.

Take the medicine, put it, control the flame, condense the mudra, the elixir slowly melts under the wrapping of the flame, in addition to the stiffness of the technique and a little jerky, the whole process of extracting the essence is going smoothly, in the Dan furnace, or into powder, or into a liquid, or into a crystal, the essence of various elixirs is quietly suspended in the Dan furnace under the support of spiritual power, Lin Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Xuan Lao, who was meditating and pranayama on the side, was closing his eyes and recuperating, his powerful spiritual power still had a full view of the situation in the Dan furnace, although the long time of refining led to the loss of the spirituality of some medicinal materials, and the essence of refining was not pure, even if the condensation embryo was successful, these flaws may lead to the final Cheng Dan being of extremely low quality, and even becoming a waste pill, but Lin Hao's performance as the first alchemy was still beyond Xuan Lao's expectations, because he didn't give Lin Hao any guidance at all, and he didn't care about the Dan Fang that he threw him back to Yuan Dan casually, which was completely the result of Lin Hao's own study。 You must know that when he first refined the Hui Yuan Dan, his master was personally guiding him, Rao was like this, he still spent a whole night to successfully complete the step of extracting essence, Lin Hao's speed was countless times faster than his original self, it seems that Xiao Hao's talent in alchemy is far better than his own, which makes Xuan Lao's heart irrepressible excitement, and his mantle is finally inherited. Although Lin Hao's achievements in martial arts far beyond ordinary people along the way, he was very pleased, but after all, he was a Dan Master during his lifetime, and he was still the top Dan Master on the mainland, and he did not accept an apprentice due to personality reasons, which made him regretful, and after his death, he met Lin Hao, and was touched by Lin Hao's heart, coupled with his bad situation at the time, half pushed and half on, accepted a cheap apprentice, and later detected Lin Hao's amazing mental talent, he only then raised a glimmer of hope, until this moment, when Lin Hao showed a demonic talent that was not weaker than martial arts in alchemy, Xuan Lao's missing heart was finally filled, and I was a Dan Master, and the sky did not live up。

The next thing is to condense the embryo, the process recorded in the Danfang is even more complicated, half a point can not be wrong, Lin Hao's attention is unprecedentedly focused, the handprint changes, and the fire is divided into several strands under the control of spiritual power, and they are wrapped towards various elixir essences, "One second, two seconds...... Lin Hao's forehead began to ooze beads of sweat, "Bang" With an inaudible sound coming from the Dan furnace, Lin Hao's first alchemy was declared a failure without accident, his breath was a little disordered, after pouring out the medicine residue in the Dan furnace, he began to breathe, and it didn't take long for Lin Hao, who spit out a mouthful of turbid breath from his mouth, and Lin Hao, who had withdrawn from the state of pranayama, did not immediately start the refining of the second pill, but fell into contemplation, summing up his own shortcomings in the refining process just now, Xuan Lao on the side did not have the slightest movement, and his breath was stable as if he had fallen asleep.

After one-third of the pillar of incense, Lin Hao lit the fire again and began the second refining, this time, his sealing speed was obviously faster, the connection between the handprints was obviously smoother, and the time taken to extract the essence was shortened a lot, and then it was the condensation embryo, "Bang", although it still failed unexpectedly, but the persistence time was extended, which made Lin Hao's eyes light up, full of energy, and began a boring cycle......

It wasn't until the sky lit up slightly that Lin Hao realized that he had been refining the pill and practicing all night, although he still hadn't refined the pill, but Xuan Lao was very satisfied with Lin Hao's performance, and still warned this apprentice a few words, and Xuan Lao returned to Lin Hao's sea of knowledge.

Lin Hao counted the number of medicinal materials, only to find that he had consumed more than a dozen medicinal materials of Hui Yuan Dan in one night, thinking of his progress, he secretly said, alchemy is really a profession that burns money.

In the next week, Lin Hao worked day and night on crazy alchemy, forgetting to sleep and eating, although he consumed nearly 100 medicinal materials, but the effect was remarkable, the refining process of Huiyuan Dan, now Lin Hao can complete it with his eyes closed, and the time for extracting essence has been shortened to an astonishing half-pillar of incense, if it weren't for the flame being too ordinary, this time would be even shorter, and all kinds of techniques Lin Hao twisted with his hands, tending to perfection.

On this day, Lin Hao had to walk out of the room, the warm sunlight was a little dazzling, because the medicinal herbs he asked for from Cheng Lao had already run out.

Licking his face again, he went to the medicine hall, asked Cheng Lao for a lot of medicinal materials, and handed over the only remaining medicinal materials of Hui Yuan Dan in the warehouse to Lin Hao without hesitation, and even apologized, "Lin Xian's nephew, I'm sorry, there are so many medicinal materials left in the inventory, and the replenishment will have to wait until next month", although Cheng Lao still did not have a trace of dissatisfaction, but Lin Hao was still a little reluctant to go, after all, these medicinal materials were not refined into pills, but all turned into scum. So he gave Cheng Lao a pill prescription of the Yellow Rank Pill as compensation, Cheng Lao got the pill, if he got the treasure, his face was full of joy and he couldn't wait to retire immediately, retreat and study, which made Lin Hao feel a little better, "It seems that I am going to speed up the progress and strive to refine the Huiyuan Pill tonight." ”

In the middle of the night, except for a long dog barking in the distance, the entire Ruan family fell silent, at this time Lin Hao's residence was full of fire, and the whole room was filled with a strong smell of medicine, if it weren't for the spirit array that Xuan Lao had arranged in advance to block the breath, it would definitely attract the attention of the Ruan master next door, Lin Hao's face at this time was gray-headed, so he was not embarrassed, under the cover of his scattered hair, his eyes were unusually bright, "Hmm" Xuan Lao on the side nodded secretly, " It seems that this time it will be successful, and judging from the details of all aspects, the quality of Cheng Dan this time must not be low. ”

At this time, the essence of various medicinal materials in the Dan furnace has gathered together, and it is about to condense into a Dan embryo, "poof"

"Huh?" Xuan Lao's eyes moved, "Why did you fail?"

This unexpected fryer also made Lin Hao also stunned, everything was going well, but when he was about to become a Dan, why did it fail? For a while, he couldn't find anything wrong.

Xuan Lao was also a little puzzled, after these days of training, every detail of Lin Hao's refining process in this Hui Yuan Dan was impeccable even in his eyes, especially the speed of extracting essence, and the purity of various essences, which made him sigh, even if he was refining this Yuan Dan again with his current self, he couldn't do Lin Hao so perfectly, but with such perfect control, how could he blow up the furnace? Strange, strange, really strange.

After thinking about it for a long time, Lin Hao was also very puzzled at this time, because he didn't find out where the problem was, "Could it be that he is too unlucky?"

Lin Hao didn't believe in evil, and then began to refine, even though the details were perfect, but "poof, poof, poof......" Failure, failure, or failure, in the next week, none of Lin Hao's refining was successful, which made Lin Hao, who was extremely tough in his heart, have a trace of unconfidence, which shows how big this blow is, Xuan Lao on the side still looks unfathomable, no sadness and no joy, but the vibration of the surrounding breath still shows the fluctuations in his heart, this week, from the beginning of the surprise, to the next doubt, and then to the later contemplation, Xuan Lao's mood fell from heaven to hell, from the beginning of the excited anticipation to the current thick loss, a trace of doubt gradually appeared in his heart, is it that he has lost his eyesXiao Hao's alchemy talent is not that high?

You must know that he refined Hui Yuan Dan at that time, extracted essence in one night, condensed embryos in two days, and successfully refined Hui Yuan Dan in only four days, although this is related to his super high alchemy talent, but among all the disciples of his master, the worst talent only took a week, on the other hand, Lin Hao, refining for two whole weeks, although the various processes are perfect to the extreme, but it is still hopeless to become a Dan, which makes Xuan Lao can't help but start to re-examine Xiao Hao's alchemy talent.

Until another day passed, there was only one medicinal herb left, and Hui Yuan Dan still hadn't practiced, looking at the stubborn Lin Hao, Xuan Lao sighed disappointedly in his heart, " It's his own extravagant hopes, no one is perfect, Xiao Hao's martial arts talent is good enough, he is still whimsical, greedily expecting Xiao Hao to have the same demonic Dan Dao talent to inherit his mantle, hey, there is no talent without talent, you can't force it, anyway, there is still yourself, Xiao Hao's pills on the road of cultivation will not be lacking, although he regrets that no one inherits his pill inheritance, but he still hopes that this setback will not affect Xiao Hao's martial arts heart, after all, he has regarded this little doll with full personality as his son!”

Just as he wanted to open his mouth to comfort his apprentice for a few words, he saw Lin Hao, who was still at a loss just now, suddenly raised his head, looked at Xuan Lao and said firmly, "Master, the apprentice feels that there is something wrong with Danfang." His eyes were brighter than ever.
