Chapter 207: Locust Spirit Scattering II
Although Han Wangpeng is a monk of the Purple Mansion Period, he is not good at alchemy, and the monk's memory is far beyond that of mortals.
Compared with the general third-order spirit pill, the refining of locust spirit powder is relatively simple, and the materials in the pill recipe are also relatively common except for the compound eyes of the third-order East Pole locust, which can be easily solved in Wujiayan Lai Peak.
According to Zhang Zhixuan's alchemy experience, of the several third-order elixirs he had seen, the most difficult was the Moon Gaze Pill, followed by the Sanyang Pill, and the easiest was Locust Lingsan.
Although he had very little experience in refining the third-order elixir, Zhang Zhixuan had only refined a furnace of the Sanyang Pill after decades of cultivation, but his alchemy had not regressed over the years, but there was still some progress.
Every five years, the family has to refine 100 furnaces of Golden Bud Pill, and every 12 years, they also have to refine 60 furnaces of Youhuan Pill, this kind of high-intensity alchemy work, in order to ensure a higher success rate, is done by Zhang Zhixuan himself.
has been a third-order alchemist for more than ten years, although he has not been promoted to a third-order middle-grade alchemist, Zhang Zhixuan has become more and more experienced in refining elixirs.
And many years ago, he purchased a third-order mid-grade magic weapon Xuanyang Furnace from Qingxuanzong.
With the Xuanyang Furnace, Zhang Zhixuan's alchemy has been strengthened, although this time it is the first time to refine the locust spirit powder, but Zhang Zhixuan also has more than eighty percent of the certainty of refining the spirit pill.
Zhang Zhixuan got the Locust Spirit Scattering Dan Fang, thought about it for a day, and when he was familiar with the theory in the Dan Fang, he immediately began to prepare for alchemy.
Taking several auxiliary elixirs from Wu Xiangjiao's hand, Zhang Zhixuan immediately prepared to start alchemy.
The key to the Locust Ling San Dan Fang is its raw material, the compound eye of the insect king, the reason why this demon insect can control a large-scale locust swarm, mainly relies on the compound eye to exude a strange pheromone.
Although many monks have spent their entire lives studying the details of this pheromone, there is no conclusive conclusion at this time.
In the rebellion of the locust demon to destroy the world that year, countless monks in East Antarctica exhausted their wisdom and wisdom, and summed up a variety of experience methods to restrain the East Pole locusts, and Locust Lingsan was invented at this time.
If the East Pole Locust is promoted to the fourth order, the pheromones in its compound eyes will have a great change, and it can easily suppress the medicinal effect of the locust spirit powder, but it can use the locust spirit powder to help the third order East Pole locust under its command advance.
There were also monks who used the compound eyes of the fourth-order Eastern Pole Locust to refine the fourth-order Locust Lingsan, but unfortunately this elixir was a complete failure, not only could not kill the demon insects, but also promoted the advancement of the fourth-order Eastern Pole Locust, which almost caused a bigger mess.
In order to prevent people with intentions from using this Danfang to cultivate the East Pole Locust and spread this extremely harmful locust plague, the Danmeng monks made a strict order to prohibit alchemists from refining the fourth-order locust Lingsan. If anyone dares to violate the ban, dozens of Yuanying factions in the Dan League will unite and send people to kill them.
Zhang Zhixuan took out a low-grade spirit stone and smashed it vigorously, sprinkled it into the Xuanyang furnace, and then melted it with pure mountain spring water, and gently put the compound eyes of the third-order East Pole locust into the alchemy furnace, ready to be simmered with a simmer.
Although the Wu family has earth fire to use, Zhang Zhixuan has used true fire alchemy for many years, and he is more experienced in using real fire. Using the true fire of the foundation building monk and carefully simmering for three hours, you can melt the compound eyes of the East Pole Locust.
During this time, the mastery of the heat is very important, and there can be no mistakes, whether it is big or small, it can affect the success or failure of alchemy.
Zhang Zhixuan has refined more than a thousand furnaces, although he has less experience in refining third-order elixirs, but the mastery of fire is precisely his strength.
He unhurriedly controlled the true fire in his body, and when the compound eyes of the East Pole Locust completely melted, he began to increase the intensity of the true fire, and kept adding auxiliary elixirs one after another.
Different from the general elixir, the locust spirit powder is a paste, and there is no need for the level of condensing the pill and collecting the pill, as long as the true fire is controlled and the elixir is refined into ointment.
As time passed minute by minute, another two hours passed, and when the Xuanyang Furnace had refined all the impurities, only the solidified ointment was left in the alchemy furnace, and this time the alchemy was completed.
Zhang Zhixuan opened the alchemy furnace, took out all the locust spirit powder ointment, and sealed it into a special jade box. He said regretfully: "These days, we have exterminated four groups of third-order East Pole locusts, but because we don't know much about this locust swarm, we only brought back a complete corpse, which can only be refined into a furnace of locust spirit dispersion, which is really a pity." ”
Liu Zixuan, who had been watching Zhang Zhixuan's alchemy and giving him a hand, was also a little remorseful.
"If I had known this, I would have brought back the compound eyes of a few third-order Eastern Pole locusts. Fortunately, Senior Han is here, otherwise the three of us may be greatly injured this time. With Han's predecessors in charge of the overall situation, and a few Taoist friends from Qingxuanzong to help, this time they will definitely be able to solve the locust plague and kill all these locusts that plague the Southern Wilderness. ”
Seeing that Zhang Zhixuan had been refined into a locust spirit scatter, Wu Xiangjiao also wanted to try the effect immediately, and immediately said: "How can there be a regret medicine in the world, now that it has been refined into a locust spirit powder, let's find the nearest locust swarm to try the effect first." Now that the nearest shareholder of Yanlaifeng, the Extreme Locust, is less than 4,000 miles, I think it is still bothering Zhang and Liu to set off immediately to exterminate this locust demon first.
A few Taoist friends of Qingxuanzong and I went to hunt the locust swarms farther away, first capturing the compound eyes of a few third-order Eastern Pole locusts, and then refining a few furnaces of locust spirit powder. With Han Laozu sitting in Yanlai Peak, according to the retreat technique of the Zifu monks, it is enough to take care of Yanlai Peak, Lushan, and Taibai Mountain. ”
Zhang Zhixuan refined into a locust spirit scatter, and he also wanted to try the power of this elixir, but he had been refining the pill for five hours, and his mana had already consumed two or three points.
Acting in the Southern Wilderness, mana must not be lost, although there are no third-order demon beasts within a radius of 10,000 miles from Yanlai Peak, Zhang Zhixuan is still very careful, and waited for two more hours, waiting for the mana to fully recover, before he and Liu Zixuan accompanied each other and flew towards the nearest locust swarm together.
Entering the Southern Wilderness, they only flew for four hours, just over two thousand miles, and Zhang Zhixuan and the others were about to stop to recover their mana, when they found that there was a large black cloud hundreds of miles away.
This kind of black cloud, Zhang Zhixuan and the others have seen many times these days, it is the locust swarm of the East Pole Locust.
Millions of Eastern Pole locusts gather together, and when they take to the skies to migrate, they can obscure the sky like a black cloud.
Even the weak third-order East Pole locusts formed black clouds that were more than a dozen miles in circumference.
Because of the large amount of food they need along the way, the East Pole locusts migrate slowly, moving only a few hundred miles a day.
Zhang Zhixuan and the others also knew this characteristic, and they recovered their mana calmly, and then flew towards these terrible black clouds, ready to use them to try the effect of locust dispersion.
