The alchemy furnace in front of me is simple and gray, with a bit of vicissitudes, and the wall of the furnace is carved with dense images of strange beasts, which inexplicably gives people a sense of heaviness. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

This refining furnace is called the Sanqing Refining Furnace, which is exactly what she got from Yu Guogong and his wife, these days, since she purchased a lot of spiritual grass from Najinghe Town, she has begun to try to refine the elixir.

It's a pity that I don't know if she missed a key point, or if her alchemy qualifications are too poor, she opened the furnace and refined the pill seven or eight times before and after, and tried the most ordinary low-grade pills, but there was still no success, and half a pill failed to be refined.

Su Qianyin thought that he had always been determined enough, and after so many failures, he couldn't help but be a little discouraged, and began to wonder if he really didn't have the talent for alchemy.

But it's not her way to give up easily, so now that she has time tonight, she decides to try again to see what the problem is.

Looking at the Dan furnace placed half a zhang away in front of him, Su Qianyin closed his palms together, and then separated and pressed them flat on his abdomen, urging the true fire in the dantian to surge, and leading it out and injecting it into the bottom of the Dan furnace.

Looking at the bright pale yellow flame slowly warming up the entire refining furnace, Su Qianyin nodded slightly, and then took out six or seven different spirit grasses from the storage bag and piled them up in a small pile on his side.

What she was going to try to refine this time was a first-grade Pei Yuan Dan, and the main materials were seven kinds of elixirs, such as green pity flower, five-leaf clover, yellow dragon root, and purple seed seed.

After carefully separating these seven elixirs, Su Qianyin carefully picked them up one by one, felt their specific weight, and figured out how much spirit grass to put in for a while.

In fact, alchemy is not as magical as it is boasted among mortals many times, and it has also been described in the ancient pill scripture that the talent of alchemy certainly accounts for a huge proportion, and people who are born with alchemy talent are not only easier to learn than ordinary people, but also have a relatively high rate of refining pills.

But in the same way, experience in alchemy is also a factor that cannot be ignored, regardless of the level of alchemy talent, experienced people are much more proficient in alchemy than beginners at any time, and the corresponding success rate is naturally high.

At present, although Su Qianyin has the guidance of the Taigu Dan Sutra, she is more of a person who is slowly groping by herself, feeling the flame of alchemy, figuring out when the most suitable time to put in the spirit grass, and how to grasp the weight of various spirit grasses...... Almost all of these problems can only be felt and understood by her alone, and she can grasp that mysterious and mysterious state.

It didn't take long for the preheating of the Dan furnace to be completed, Su Qianyin took a deep breath, threw away the distractions in his heart, picked up a yellow dragon root, removed the useless roots, and cut off one-third.

Next, she manipulated her spiritual power to open the top lid of the alchemy furnace, threw the simple processed yellow dragon root directly into the alchemy furnace, and then firmly closed the lid of the furnace.

After a few breaths like this, Su Qianyin's divine sense carefully sensed every subtle change in the spirit grass in the Dan furnace, until the time was almost over, she took out another green pear flower and threw it into the Dan furnace without any treatment, and kept picking up another five-leaf clover, carefully plucking all the leaves, and then throwing it in, and quickly closing the lid of the furnace.

The divine sense was released, and Su Qianyin carefully sensed that as the temperature continued to rise, the three spirit grasses slowly melted into liquid, and dissolved into each other, which was indistinguishable.

After about twenty breaths, Su Qianyin lifted the lid of the furnace again and threw the remaining four spirit grasses into it at once.

Next, she stared at the Dan furnace with nervous eyes, not realizing that a thin layer of sweat had oozed from her forehead.

I don't know how long it took, the bright yellow flame in the place where the fire was held under the alchemy furnace began to fade gradually, and the temperature was also dropping, Su Qianyin saw this, he didn't dare to take it lightly, and hurriedly took out a ball of dantian real fire and put it into the alchemy furnace.

In this way, the temperature in the Dan furnace returned to normal again, and all the spirit grasses inside had completely melted together and joined together into lumps.

Su Qianyin breathed a sigh of relief for the first time when she saw this scene, the last few times she had a problem in this melting link, before these spirit grass juices solidified, they all trembled violently for some reason, and soon there were bursts of scorching smell, which made Su Qianyin busy for a while, and was busy stopping the real fire, and controlling the alchemy furnace to make the aura inside it slowly stabilize, so as not to damage the Dan furnace too violently, and at the same time, to dispel those burnt smells, it can be said that it is not embarrassing.

The previous alchemy made Su Qianyin wonder if this Sanqing refining furnace would suddenly explode, causing the tragedy of the furnace explosion.

Fortunately, the grade of this Dan furnace is not low, and it is equivalent to a high-grade spiritual weapon, so it survived under Su Qianyin's repeated destruction and was not scrapped, otherwise she may even regret her intestines, if such a high-quality alchemy furnace is really destroyed, I don't know when she will be able to save enough spirit stones to buy another one.

It was a long process to wait for these solidified spirit grasses to gradually take shape under the scorching of the true fire, and the most important thing Su Qianyin lacked was patience, so he quietly meditated with his eyes closed on the side, while his divine sense paid close attention to the movements of the alchemy furnace.

Finally, after a cup of tea, all the lumps in the Dan furnace were put together, forming round pill prototypes.

Su Qianyin opened her eyes and stared ahead with burning eyes, as if there was an inexplicable flame flashing in her eyes, making her eyes look quite dazzling at this moment.

After the elixir is formed, it is necessary to wait quietly for them to continuously run in the medicinal properties of the different elixirs under the power of the flame, this link can be said to be the most important and critical step in the entire alchemy process, and many times the success or failure of alchemy is in this move.

After some time, there was a slight vibration in the alchemy furnace, and Su Qianyin's eyes suddenly widened, and he even stopped breathing and stared at the alchemy furnace.

The shaking didn't last long before it stopped, Su Qianyin waited quietly for the furnace to open, the room was silent, and she could even hear the beating of her heartbeat in her chest.

Suddenly, her consciousness moved, and then her hands pinched, and a spiritual power was used to control the furnace lid to slowly open.

At the moment when the alchemy furnace opened, a fragrance that belonged to the pill suddenly overflowed, and soon filled the entire stone room.

Su Qianyin's eyes welled up with a strong color of joy, and he couldn't wait to rush to the Dan furnace, and looked inside excitedly, so he didn't notice the fragrance around him, but it dissipated in an instant.

At this moment, the temperature at the bottom of the furnace was still quite high, and the four pills that had been formed were lying at the bottom of the pill furnace, while on the other side, there were three pills that failed to condense and shattered into pieces of dregs.

Su Qianyin didn't care about the high temperature that still remained on these pills, and directly stretched out her hand and took out a pill, when she put this pill on the tip of her nose and sniffed it, the joy on her face suddenly froze.

Then, she quickly picked up the remaining three pills one by one and put them under her nose to sniff lightly, showing a little disappointment on her face.

Although four finished pills have been refined in this alchemy, it is a pity that none of these pills have complete medicinal properties, which means that these are four waste pills.

However, after a short period of disappointment and frustration, Su Qianyin sat down again and thought about the various steps of Fang Cai's alchemy, what went wrong?

From the preheating of the Dan furnace to the putting in the spirit grass, and then to the fusion of the spirit grass juice, turning the liquid into solid, and turning it into a Dan......

These steps were replayed in her mind one by one, and soon Su Qianyin opened her eyes, "Yes, there are no problems in these links, then the key is to open the furnace ...... last."

There will be a situation where the pill is formed but the effect is completely lost, it can only be that she failed to grasp the best time to open the furnace, so that the pill failed when the medicinal properties were fused, causing the medicinal properties of the pill to volatilize in advance before it stabilized.

After thinking about the crux of the matter, Su Qianyin exhaled, although this alchemy failed at the end, she was not without gains, at least compared to the previous alchemy attempts, she was already able to refine the prototype of the pill, what was lacking now was only the grasp of the timing of the furnace, which was a big step up from before.

Next, Su Qianyin didn't continue to try alchemy, the attempt just now had already used up her last remaining batch of spirit grass, so she was going to wait until tomorrow to go to the market again, buy some spirit grass and come back to continue studying the art of alchemy.

After making a plan, Su Qianyin closed his eyes again, entered the sea of knowledge and opened the ancient Dan Sutra.

Time passed quickly, and soon it was bright outside the cave, and after staying in the Luoyu Mountain Cave Mansion for a night, Su Qianyin already felt very unhappy, and then she and Tong Tong couldn't leave the Chixia Mountains for a short time, so they could only go to the four largest markets to find an inn to live in.

So when Luo Yushan invited the two into the living room again, Su Qianyin asked him to resign again, this time her tone was quite resolute, and she didn't let go of half a minute, although Luo Yushan had the intention to stay, but seeing that she was determined to do so, she didn't say more, and said a few polite words if she encountered difficulties and came here to find him, and then sent Su Qianyin and the others out of the cave.

After leaving the Luoyu Mountain Cave Mansion, Su Qianyin took Tong Tong's sword into the air and flew to the east according to the instructions on the map.

As we all know, there are four major markets in the Chixia Mountains, which are named after the stars of the four directions, the green dragon and the white tiger Vermilion Bird Xuanwu, and what Su Qianyin is going to now is the Vermilion Bird Fang City in the east.

"Sister, what kind of spirit flowers are those spirit flower seeds you talked about yesterday?" Tong Tong stood at the back of the flying sword, firmly grabbed the hem of Su Qianyin's clothes, and asked loudly.

Su Qianyin glanced back at her and touched her nose a little embarrassedly, "Hehe...... As I said a long time ago, I don't know much about these spirit plants, and I really can't tell what kind of spirit flowers they are. ”

"Oh, that's right," Tong Tong thought about it seriously, and then said, "Then sister, can you show me the seeds?" I've planted a lot of spirit flowers and grass before, so I might be able to recognize them. ”

Tong Tong is very enthusiastic about this matter, after all, she is the only one of the two who has a little bit of knowledge in the cultivation of spirit grass, and she will also be responsible for the cultivation of those spirit flower seeds.

Su Qianyin didn't hesitate, and after rummaging through the storage bag for a while, she took out a jade box and handed it to Tong Tong, anyway, these seeds were going to be handed over to her sooner or later, and it didn't make a difference if she was a little earlier or later.

Because the wind was blowing extremely violently in the sky, Tong Tong did not dare to open the jade box rashly, but opened a crack and sniffed it carefully, and then carefully glanced at the seeds inside, and then a little distracted appeared on his face.

Su Qianyin couldn't help but turn around and stroke her head when she saw her troublesome appearance, "How is it?" Can you recognize it? ”

Tong Tong tilted his head and thought for a while, first nodded, and then shook his head, "I must have seen this kind of breath, but it's been too long, I should have heard my grandfather ......talk about it when I was very young."

Hearing this, Su Qianyin glanced at her, "How old are you, when you were still very young?" Even now, you're just a little bit. ”

Tong Tong was stunned by her, and his little face turned red and protested: "Sister, don't interrupt, I'm thinking about the problem now."

"Okay, okay, I won't interrupt, you can think slowly." Su Qianyin looked straight ahead, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

It wasn't until she saw the general outline of Vermilion Bird Fang City from a distance that Tong Tong told Su Qianyin with a serious face that the seed in her hand was indeed a kind of spirit flower seed, but this kind of spirit flower was not very common, and it seemed to be quite peculiar, as for where the strangeness was, Tong Tong himself couldn't say.

Su Qianyin didn't care so much, since this was a spirit flower seed, and it was very peculiar, didn't it just meet the requirements of that Qingwei Sanren with a strange temperament?

That's it, let Tong Tong be responsible for planting these seeds, if it meets the requirements at that time, it will naturally be better, if it doesn't meet the requirements, then it will be difficult to find some strange flowers and plants in the immortal cultivation world.

Because Suzaku Fang City is a place where scattered cultivation is concentrated, and most of the shops in the square market are opened for casual cultivation, everything is only about the word random, and no matter who can enter freely, even mortals are not bound to this list.

Su Qianyin and Tong Tong entered the Fang Market without any investigation, looking at the overcrowded Fang City streets in front of them, Su Qianyin realized that the black-faced young man that day was not an exaggeration, and the Fang City here was indeed much more prosperous than Ze Zhongcheng.

Even the Qingyunfang City of the Dao Immortal Sect is probably slightly inferior to the Vermilion Bird Fang City in front of him in terms of scale, but this is not to say that the Vermilion Bird Fang City is stronger than the Qingyun Fang City, not to mention anything else, at least in terms of order management, Qingyun Fang City is much stronger than the Scattered Cultivation City in front of him, which advocates freedom and unfettered.

After coming here, the map of the black-faced young man was not detailed enough, but Su Qianyin didn't bother to change it, anyway, she and Tong Tong only lived here for ten days and half a month, and even if she happened to do something, she didn't have to use the map all the time.

After strolling around the market with interest for a while, Su Qianyin and the others came to an inn, and after looking at the decoration of this inn, Su Qianyin nodded with satisfaction and stepped in.

"Oh, this senior is coming to stay at the hotel? Please come in ......"

As soon as he entered, a young man dressed as a sixth-layer qi refining servant greeted him enthusiastically, and shouted at a compartment: "Shopkeeper! There are guests, so why don't you come out to entertain them! ”

As soon as the voice fell, I saw a middle-aged man with black beard wearing a blue robe and a high hat slowly walking out of the cubicle, holding his hat and muttering as he walked: "It's coming, it's coming, what are you urging?" It's like a soul, and the old man's dreams are gone......"

After the middle-aged man walked out, his divine sense swept Su Qianyin and the others, but his face immediately changed, and he smiled respectfully: "It turns out that the predecessors who have built the foundation have arrived, and the juniors have missed the distance, and I hope that the seniors will forgive their sins!"

Out of the cave mansion, Su Qianyin came to the lively Vermilion Bird Fang City, only this time she didn't wander around, but went straight to several shops in the Fang City that specialized in selling various cultivation exercises and classics.

After casually asking the shopkeeper where the alchemy-related books and jade slips were, Su Qianyin plunged directly into the vast sea of books.

I have to say that the experience and knowledge of the ancestral cultivators accumulated over millions of years in the immortal cultivation world is really vast and boundless, just for the alchemy alone, Su Qianyin found hundreds of books and jade slips related to alchemy in this small shop, what are the "One Hundred Sets of Basic Dan Formulas", "The Beginning of Alchemy", and "The Complete Book of Three Pills...... And so on and so forth.

After picking and picking up for a long time, Su Qianyin found five or six kinds of jade slips related to alchemy common sense, because these jade slips were sold as commodities, and most of the monks had the ability to remember them, so naturally they were all banned, and they could only consult a small part of the content of the jade slips before they bought them.

Su Qianyin came to the shopkeeper who couldn't open his eyes with these jade slips in his hand, put the things in his hand on the counter, and asked, "How do you sell these jade slips?"

When the shopkeeper heard someone talking, he opened his eyes and glanced at Su Qianyin, and then stretched out his hand tremblingly and looked at the six jade slips one by one, the hand that was as shriveled and gray as the bark of an old tree was trembling all the time, and Su Qianyin was shocked for a while.

Compared to mortals, the speed of aging of monks will be very slow, and the old man in front of him has cultivated to perfection in the Qi refining period, and Shou Yuan must be more than one hundred and fifty years old, but looking at him like this, I don't know how long he has lived.

It took the old man a while to read these jade slips one by one, and then he withdrew his hand as if it had taken a lot of effort, paused, and then panted in a hoarse voice: "A total of twenty-six spirit stones, no counteroffer!"

Su Qianyin breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't know that her heart had been carrying it all the time, the experience of staying in the hotel a few days ago was still in front of her, she was really a little afraid that the jade slips in this market would also sell at a "sky-high price", but fortunately, the price was not expensive, as far as she knew, it was about the same as the price in the Daoxian Zongfang market.

After decisively taking out the spirit stone and putting it on the counter, Su Qianyin swept his sleeves and put away the jade slip, leaving the old man still panting and silently counting the spirit stones she left behind.

After casually entering a tea shop in the market, sitting down at an empty table, and ordering another cup of tea, Su Qianyin couldn't wait to hold a jade slip and dip his divine sense into it to check it.

After more than half an hour like this, she withdrew her divine consciousness from the last jade slip, but she exhaled lightly, and a little joy appeared on her face, sweeping away the haze of the failure of alchemy in the past few days.

Sure enough, as Tong Tong said, she still took alchemy too much for granted in the past, just like cultivation, alchemy has never been a simple matter, not only requires a certain talent, but also must go through a lot of alchemy experience accumulation and practical practice, it is possible to become a qualified alchemist with certain attainments.

These jade slips all show one point, that is, beginners who have never been in contact with alchemy, even if they have the best Dan master to teach on the side, they will not be able to refine the finished pill at one try, but they will have to go through many failed experiences before they can gradually comprehend the essence of alchemy.

And generally newcomers who have just begun to try alchemy, if they are gifted monks, they may have to go through dozens of failures before they can master enough skills to refine the finished pill, and for those with average alchemy qualifications, it is not surprising that they have failed hundreds of times.

There is even such a rumor in one of the jade slips called "Alchemy Instructions", which says that in ancient times, there was a qi refining monk surnamed Meng who failed more than 2,000 times when he was a beginner in alchemy, and the number of Dan furnaces damaged by this was as many as hundreds, and he became the laughing stock of the entire alchemy world for a while.

But such a person who seems to have extremely poor alchemy qualifications, but after thousands of attempts, he suddenly had an epiphany overnight, and he became handy at refining the pill, and finally even became a generation of alchemy masters, admired by others.

Although this is just a story, the credibility is not high, but Su Qianyin has drawn a lot of information from it, thinking about it seriously, this alchemy is really a profession that consumes extremely spirit stones, and it often takes hundreds of thousands of spirit stones to cultivate a qualified alchemist, so like some small immortal cultivation sects or families, they can't afford to raise an alchemist at all.

Even if it is a large sect like the Chongyue Valley of the Dao Immortal Sect, the high-level alchemists in the sect are extremely rare, and these alchemists are often difficult to break through once they are trapped in a certain realm, after all, the more high-level alchemists are, the more they lack the opportunity to use high-quality elixir for alchemy.

This situation is not serious when refining low-level elixirs, but when it comes to refining high-grade elixirs, even if they exhaust the strength of the entire sect, they do not have so many cherished elixirs for them to accumulate experience, so while it is difficult to improve, alchemists are also extremely rare, and naturally enjoy a very high status in the world of cultivating immortals.

After some emotion in her heart, Su Qianyin was no longer confined to the failure of alchemy during this time, and the burden of worrying that she had no alchemy talent that had been pressed in her heart was temporarily put down.

In the next few days, it was a fulfilling life of alchemy during the day and cultivation at night, until early one morning, Tong Tong's hesitant voice sounded outside Su Qianyin's stone.

“…… Sister, are you cultivating? If you're there, Tong Tong won't bother you, and I'll come back later. ”

Su Qianyin had already finished her regular cultivation, and she felt refreshed, so she opened the stone room prohibition in a good mood, looked at Tong Tong outside the door and said, "What's the matter, but what's the urgency?"

When Tong Tong saw her, he seemed very embarrassed, his little face was even redder, and he said, "Eh...... Sister, that ...... Those spirit flowers bloomed. ”

"Oh," Su Qianyin was a little surprised, remembering that there were still some young shoots in the medicine field a few days ago, and they had grown so quickly, it seemed that Tong Tong really had some ability to take care of Lingzhi.

"Now that it's blooming, let's go and take a look, how about it, can you tell what kind of spirit flower it is now?"

Su Qianyin walked outside with some interest as she spoke, but Tong Tong stopped her in a hurry at this time, and said hurriedly: "Sister, you wait first!" Those flowers...... Those spent a little bit of a problem......"

Su Qianyin saw Tong Tong's panicked appearance for the first time, and couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't it all already blooming, what else can be wrong?"

Looking at Tong Tongxiao's face full of expressions of wanting to speak, she smiled again: "Could it be that you planted something wrong?"

"No, no......" Tong Tong hurriedly shook his head, and then moved out of the way as if he had made up his mind: "Sister, go out and have a look yourself."

This time Su Qianyin felt more interesting, and did not say more, and walked out of the stone room with light steps, and came to the middle of the courtyard.

When he saw more than a dozen spiritual plants blooming in the medicine field of the hospital, Su Qianyin was stunned, and soon showed a stunned look.

Tongtong, are you sure you're right? But how can these blooming flowers be so similar...... It's like ...... What about the ass?
