Chapter Seventy-One: Trying Alchemy
After sorting out the contents of the stone room, he found that the stone room, which had been overcrowded, suddenly became spacious again.
There was even room to put a bed down, and thinking that the environment here was much better than in other stone rooms, he took it upon himself to move a wooden bed from other stone rooms.
It's just that what makes him depressed is that the bedding and quilts on those wooden beds are almost all black, with a sour smell, and he doesn't know how long he hasn't washed them.
Naturally, he had no interest in using these dirty messes of quilts and bedding, so he just threw them away.
But without the quilt and bedding, the wooden bed is only a layer of planks, and it is no wonder that it is comfortable to lie on it.
Although Poplar also wanted to get a new set of bedding and quilts, but after thinking about it, forget it, it's a big deal to just put on a protective suit and lie on it when the time comes, at least the protective clothing is still quite thick.
He sat directly on the wooden bed and played with his mobile phone, because there was no network, he couldn't even play the downloaded online games, which made him a little depressed.
Idle and bored, he opened the refrigerator again to check what vegetables and fruits were inside.
There are still many varieties of vegetables, such as greens, celery, cabbage, cauliflower, cabbage, eggplant, beans, peanuts, soybeans, bean sprouts, and so on.
There are also many fruits, such as apples, pears, oranges, grapes, blueberries, watermelons, honeydew melons, etc.
And these things have already been washed, which means that he doesn't need to wash them again.
He thought about it and picked up an apple and nibbled on it.
After nibbling on the apples, he began to eat oranges again, and after eating them, he picked up the grapes and ate a few more.
It was so boring that he really didn't know what else he could do other than eat.
He didn't stop eating until his stomach was a little overwhelmed, and he didn't want to eat a third of the fruit in the refrigerator in just such a short time, which made him a little embarrassed.
Sitting back on the bed, he touched his nose in frustration, feeling that he was not much different from going to prison at the moment, which was really uncomfortable.
"No, you have to find something to do, it's not a thing to just sit and wait." Poplar couldn't help but shake his head and said softly.
"So what should be done?" He asked as he put one foot on the edge of the bed, his left hand on his knee, and his chin propped up.
Bai Yang's mind moved, and his consciousness quickly probed into the storage space, he originally planned to take out the golden sword pill from the storage space for sacrifice, but when he saw the nine Qingyun stone tablets in the storage space, he couldn't help but be stunned, he remembered that he seemed to have not studied the Qingyun Tablet for a long time.
Since the last time I comprehended the first Qingyun Monument, nearly ten days have passed since now.
Although his divine sense failed to arouse the slightest reaction from the other eight Qingyun Tablets ten days ago, now his Yuan Shen cultivation had improved to a great realm, which made him feel a little hopeful in his heart.
However, he was still a little hesitant in his heart, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while whether to study the Qingyun Tablet or sacrifice the Sword Pill.
His consciousness wandered between the Qingyun Tablet and the Sword Pill, but when he inadvertently swept the two cyan tokens, he couldn't help but be stunned.
These two cyan tokens are the inheritance tokens of the Qingyun Sect, one token records the inheritance exercises of the Qingyun Sect, and the other token records the inheritance alchemy of the Qingyun Sect.
"Alchemy, by the way, the comprehension of the Qingyun Tablet and the sacrificial refining of the sword pill cannot be completed in a day or two, so you can take this opportunity to try to refine the Ten Perfect Pills." He couldn't help but think to himself.
The reason why he was so concerned about refining the Ten Perfection Pills was naturally because he had promised Lu Feng to give him a surprise, not to mention that now that the medicinal materials of the Ten Perfection Pills had been collected, he also wanted to try the taste of alchemy.
Compared to studying the mysteries of the Qingyun Monument and sacrificing the Sword Pill, he was more interested in alchemy.
As soon as he thought of it, he moved his mind and directly released the black alchemy furnace that he had stolen from the secret room of the Qingyun Sect's forbidden land.
The kitchen, which was originally quite spacious, suddenly became very crowded because of this alchemy furnace.
Thankfully, the aspen can teleport back and forth, so there's no need to worry about it.
When he first stole this alchemy furnace, he didn't know how to use it.
However, fortunately, there is an alchemy demonstration similar to an alchemy furnace in Qingyun Ling's alchemy, although there is a slight difference in appearance, but at least there is not much difference in function.
The alchemy furnace in front of him was not an ordinary alchemy furnace, but a special magic weapon.
When Poplar's divine sense penetrated into the alchemy furnace, he quickly found a container at the bottom of the furnace that was used to hold the fire attribute heavenly spirit crystal.
As soon as his mind moved, he saw a sudden "click" sound under the alchemy furnace, opening a mechanism, and a square black box ejected from it.
There were still some remnants of transparent Celestial Spirit Crystals in the black box, but these crystals had lost all of their energy.
Bai Yang directly put the remnants of the Heavenly Spirit Crystal in the box into the storage space, and then took out more than twenty fire-attribute Heavenly Spirit Crystals from the storage space and put them into the black box.
When he was done, he directly reinserted the black box into the groove at the bottom of the Dan furnace.
I only heard a soft "click", and the mechanism that was opened at the bottom of the Dan furnace closed again after the box was inserted, and there was nothing unusual from the outside.
This black box actually has a special name, which is called the fire crystal box in alchemy, and it is specially used to hold fire attribute crystals.
After replacing the fire attribute heavenly spirit spar in the fire crystal box, Bai Yang's divine sense probed into the Dan furnace again, and he could already see that the entire inner wall of the Dan furnace was lit up with fiery red lines, at this time, he only needed to open the furnace mouth and put in the medicinal materials in order to start trying alchemy.
But he thought about it and didn't do it immediately, although he already had a very good idea of refining the Ten Perfection Pills, after all, he had already observed the refining method of the Ten Perfection Pills dozens of times in the Qingyun Order, and that kind of feeling as if he had experienced it himself made him feel as if he was refining it himself.
Of course, there is still some difference between observing and refining in person, just like refining the elixir requires controlling the temperature in the alchemy furnace at all times, which requires testing his ability to control the temperature, and he obviously doesn't need to do this when observing, so it will be relatively easy.
In order to ensure the success of refining the Ten Perfection Pills at one time, he planned to revisit the refining steps of the Ten Perfection Pills several times.
The reason why he did this was not because he was arrogant, but because the number of medicinal materials in his hand was not very large, the number was uneven, there were many more, and I am afraid that the few were only enough for him to try ten times.
It took him more than an hour to re-observe the Ten Perfection Pill refining method in the alchemy no less than five times, and after making sure that he had memorized all the steps, his divine sense withdrew from the Qingyun Order again.
Returning Qingyun Ling to the storage space, he then used his mind to sort out all the medicinal materials needed to refine the Ten Perfection Pills in the storage space and put them in the most conspicuous position on his own.
After doing all this, he took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down and keep his mind in an ethereal state.
The valley was very quiet now, and the cave in the valley was even quieter, which made Poplar's heart calm down quickly.
"It's no wonder that whether it is a cultivator on the earth or an immortal cultivator on Luo Yuanxing, they like to hide in a quiet place, it turns out that such a place is indeed conducive to cultivation." A glimmer of realization suddenly appeared in Bai Yang's heart.
Then his divine consciousness quickly entered the Dan furnace, and as soon as his mind moved, the fiery red lines on the inner wall of the Dan furnace suddenly rose red mist, and the temperature in the entire Dan furnace rose rapidly at the moment when these red mist burst out, and Bai Yang also felt that his divine consciousness was passing rapidly.
These red mist in the Dan furnace is a kind of fire attribute energy that combines divine consciousness, and is called divine fire or soul fire in alchemy.
It can be said that alchemy is an extremely exhausting job, and it is not something that ordinary cultivators or immortal cultivators can do.
Of course, this is not to say that ordinary cultivators or immortal cultivators can't practice the elixir, but even if ordinary cultivators can refine the elixir, neither quantity nor quality can be guaranteed.
After urging the divine fire in the Dan furnace, the poplar immediately moved his mind, and the furnace lid was suspended out of thin air with a soft "click", and a red light rushed out from the mouth of the Dan furnace, reflecting the stone chamber red, but the stone chamber did not feel the hot breath at all, and it seemed that all the heat was isolated in the Dan furnace.
At the moment when the lid of the Dan furnace was uncovered, Bai Yang did not delay, and immediately put the ten flavors of medicinal materials prepared in advance into the Dan furnace one by one in the order in alchemy.
At this time, it is not only the order of the medicinal materials that are put in, but also the smelting of the medicinal materials in the Dan furnace at all times.
If the heat cannot be controlled at this time, it is likely to cause the herbs to be baked by the high temperature.
While playing with the pill furnace and putting in the medicinal materials, Bai Yang used his divine sense to keep an eye on the smelting of the medicinal materials.
Carefully control the intensity of the divine fire in the Dan furnace, so that the medicinal materials are always in a state of smelting and will not be baked.
The reason why he was able to control the intensity of the Divine Fire was precisely because the Divine Fire was formed by combining his Divine Sense with the energy in the Fire Attribute Heavenly Spirit Crystal, so it could also be said to be a variant of his Divine Sense.
If you want to control the temperature of the divine fire in the Dan furnace, you can only control it by controlling the intensity of the divine fire, and there is no other way.
But it was not easy to manipulate the intensity of the Divine Fire as expected, although the Divine Fire was not much different from his Divine Consciousness because it was combined with his Divine Sense.
However, the space in the Dan furnace is very limited after all, and the medicinal materials will be put into the later stage, which will make the number of medicinal materials in the Dan furnace more and more, and each medicinal material has a different melting temperature, so it will naturally be much more difficult to control, and it is also necessary to take into account the temperature at which different medicinal materials melt and merge with each other, which will make it more difficult for the divine sense to operate.
If you don't do alchemy, you don't know the difficulty of alchemy, even if Bai Yang was confident before this, but after he really got started at this moment, he was still haggard by various emergencies.
Every time an emergency is not handled well, it will greatly affect the quality of the pill, when Poplar put all the medicinal materials into the Dan furnace, he has already caused some medicinal materials to be baked because of a moment of negligence, although it can still become a pill, but the quality will become extremely poor.
"Forget it, after all, it's the first time for alchemy, and you can't be too demanding of yourself." He sighed and couldn't help but comfort himself.
