Chapter 66: First Acquaintance with Alchemy
"Li'er, from today onwards, you need to have a good relationship with the Ming family, and even more so with the predecessors of this Yuan Furnace! With this person here, I think it won't be long before I can give birth to a few elders of the Spirit Emperor realm. Li Luohua suddenly said solemnly to Luo Xili.
"Aunt Li, don't worry, Li'er knows this matter in her heart! Besides, even if there is no Yuan Furnace senior, then the Ming family will be desperate to protect him!" Luo Xili said with a firm face.
"Alas, you girl! I hope your vision is not wrong, this Ming family is really not as simple as it seems on the surface!" Li Luohua sighed helplessly, naturally knowing the meaning of Luo Xili's words.
"Aunt Li, who did you mean by this Yuan Furnace senior who was accepted as a disciple by this Yuan Furnace senior?
"I've seen the map with the place of the trade, and it seems to be a location on the edge of the Jeorn Mountains. I think you should know better than me about who that person might be, right?"
"Does Aunt Li think so too? As far as I know, that person had already returned alive from the Absolute Spirit Mountain Range three days ago, and the whole person was even more like a different person! But he obviously doesn't have a spiritual vein, isn't he unable to cultivate spiritual energy, so I really don't know what this Yuan Furnace senior has taken a fancy to him?" Luo Xili's brows were tightly locked, and his words were full of incomprehension.
"Okay, don't guess about it, you girl, no matter what the specific situation is, everything is going in a good direction after all. If you want to know who that person is and what secrets there are, you might as well knock on the side from Ming Qingsong and others, and maybe you can get the answer you want. Liluohua persuaded Luo Xi to leave.
"Aunt Li's words are right, and that's the only way to do it now!" Luo Xili nodded helplessly.
Then Luo Xili and Liluohua talked a few words again, and then they left the top hall, after all, the refining of the four pins of pills could not be completed in a short time, and there was no need for the two of them to sit here and wait.
In an extremely secluded secret room in Zhenbao Xing, the spirit of the Yuan Furnace floated above the void, and Ming Xuan was sitting next to it, unlike before, Ming Xuan had already taken off the black robe that was buckled on his face and head, revealing a resolute face.
"Senior Yuan Furnace, why did you just open your mouth to refine three four-grade pills for Zhen Bao Xing? Obviously, when you said that you could refine one, Luo Xili didn't mean to refuse, but you forcibly added it to three, this is not like your style!" Ming Xuan asked with a puzzled look on the spirit of the Yuan Furnace.
"Why, can't Lao Tzu look at that girl!" The spirit of the Yuan Furnace glared at Ming Xuan angrily, and choked Ming Xuan for a while.
"Okay, you are the uncle, you are right, anyway, it will not be me who will be a coolie at that time, why should Lao Tzu bother with this heart for you!" Ming Xuan rolled his eyes and muttered, feeling that he was treated as a donkey's liver and lungs.
"Heh!" The spirit of the Yuan Furnace was instantly angry, "When did you kid learn to speak!"
Seeing this, Ming Xuan snorted coldly and turned his head to the side, looking like he was ignoring the spirit of the Yuan Furnace.
The spirit of the Yuan Furnace looked at Ming Xuan's performance, but not only did he not mean to be angry, but he felt a warm heart. Because it knew in its heart that the reason why Ming Xuan cared about these was because Ming Xuan was worried that it would lose spiritual power when refining the Four Rank Pills.
Then the Spirit of the Yuan Furnace smiled knowingly, and opened his mouth to explain to Ming Xuan: "You kid doesn't know the preciousness of the Extreme Yin Nine Illusion Grass and the Ice and Fire Twin Spirit Snake Spirit Core, so naturally I feel that this price is a bit high. If these two things appear in the Central Plate Continent, let alone the fourth-grade pills, the fifth-grade and sixth-grade pills are willing to be exchanged for those alchemists who have broken their scalps. Although the grade of the ice spirit pill is not high, it is only a fifth-grade primary elixir, but it is a kind of elixir that alchemists must take when refining the earth fire or the fire of high-level demon beasts, otherwise the fire and evil qi of the earth fire and the fire of the demon beast must be burned to the point that there is not even slag left. Therefore, being able to exchange three four-rank pills for these two elixirs is actually a big deal. ”
"The other most important thing is that we have limited time, and we must let you refine the earth fire as quickly as possible to strengthen the meridians, so it doesn't matter if the price is higher, the most important thing is to let the other party refuse. And since we have to cooperate with Zhenbao for a long time, we naturally have to give each other some sweetness, and if we need Zhenbaoxing to help do anything, it will be easy to do. And so far, the main medicine of our refining Ice Spirit Pill is only the thousand-year-old cold marrow liquid, and we can also ask Zhen Baoxing about whether there is any news of the thousand-year cold marrow liquid in the future. ”
After listening to the explanation of the spirit of the Yuan Furnace, Ming Xuan's whole complexion eased a little, and he suddenly felt a panic in his heart. Don't look at the spirit of the Yuan Furnace for a day, but the control of personnel is not much stronger than him, and at the same time, the spirit of the Yuan Furnace is also sincerely assisting him, thinking about him.
"Boy, then Lao Tzu is going to start alchemy, you can take a good look at it yourself, this will be very beneficial to your alchemy in the future!" said the spirit of the Yuan Furnace to Ming Xuan again.
When Ming Xuan heard this, he naturally knew what a precious experience it would be to be lucky enough to witness the alchemy of an alchemy master, so he also quickly focused his eyes on the spirit of the Yuan Furnace. At the same time, this was also the first time he had witnessed the alchemy of the spirit of the Yuan Furnace, and it was the first time he had seen the alchemy process, and he also wanted to know what alchemy was all about?
Seeing that Ming Xuan's eyes were gathered, the spirit of the Yuan Furnace moved unhurriedly.
"Boy, look at it, alchemy must first have Danhuo. ”
As he spoke, the spirit of the Yuan Furnace summoned a wisp of golden flame from his body with a wave of one hand, and the entire secret room also appeared with the golden flame, and the temperature suddenly rose several times, only to make Ming Xuan sweat profusely.
"Lao Tzu's golden flame is my natal fire, Lao Tzu named it Yuan Yan, and its power is much stronger than ordinary earth fire!"
"Is it stronger than earth fire?" Ming Xuan swallowed, a little envious, "When will I be able to have a Dan fire of my own?"
"Alchemist's alchemy is still not enough, you must also have a good Dan furnace. Lao Tzu's alchemy used to be refined in the Yuan Furnace True Body, but since it was separated from the Yuan Furnace True Body, Lao Tzu could only refine it in the form of Yuan Yan Condensing the Yuan Furnace if he wanted to refine the alchemy. It is not a big problem to refine pills below the seventh grade in this method, but refining the pills above the seventh grade will be subject to many restrictions, and the success rate will drop sharply. So then you need to find a good Dan furnace as well. ”
As the spirit of the Yuan Furnace spoke, the form of the Yuan Flame in his hand immediately changed, and it was directly dispersed and enlarged into a Dan Furnace form condensed by golden flames. Eight ears and three legs, thin at the top and thick at the bottom, the furnace body is slender, because it is formed by the condensation of flames, the situation in the furnace can be clearly seen.
"The first step in alchemy is to remove the impurities in the elixir and refine the essence inside. This step requires the alchemist to perceive the essence of the elixir through soul power, and protect the essence through soul power to prevent the essence from being refined. At the same time, the alchemist is also required to remove the impurities as much as possible, and the cleaner the impurities are removed, the better the quality of the elixir. If the impurities are not removed cleanly enough, it is very likely to lead to the scrapping of the elixir or even the fryer in the subsequent fusion process. Boy, you're going to have to take a closer look. ”
The next moment, I saw that the spirit of the Yuan Furnace sucked it with one hand, and it took an elixir from the disc into his hand, and then directly threw the elixir into the Dan Furnace, guiding the golden flame to begin to burn. As the flames calcined, the elixir slowly turned to ashes at a speed visible to the naked eye, until in the end all that was left was a dark green liquid the size of a thumb.
"It's so full of vitality!" Ming Xuan couldn't help but exclaim as he felt the aura emanating from that dark green liquid.
Just as Ming Xuan's exclamation fell, the spirit of the Yuan Furnace ingested another elixir and put it into the Dan Furnace, and similarly slowly refined it into a very small mass of liquid. According to the gourd to draw the scoop, it followed by refining the other auxiliary medicines, demon beast spirit cores, etc. into a mass of liquid one by one. By the end of the day, there were nearly ten large and small masses of liquid floating in the entire furnace.
"After the elixir essence extraction is completed, the next step is to fuse the elixir essence in the order required by the Danfang. This step is particularly important, because of the existence of a series of reasons such as the mutual exclusion of various elixir essences, once there is a mistake in the order of essence fusion, it is very likely to lead to a decline in the quality of the elixir, or even the scrapping of the elixir, so this must require the alchemist's spiritual power to be highly concentrated, and clearly know which elixir each essence is, and when it should be fused. At the same time, the fusion process is to compress and fuse the elixir through the alchemist's soul power, so this requires the alchemist's soul power to be strong enough, especially the refining of high-level elixir. ”
As he spoke, he saw that the spirit of the Yuan Furnace began to guide the two groups of elixir essences to slowly approach each other, and then slowly compressed and fused the two groups of elixir essences together. During the entire fusion process, Ming Xuan clearly felt the resistance between the two groups of elixir essences, but this resistance was suppressed by the spirit of the Yuan Furnace with its powerful soul power. Then the Spirit of the Yuan Furnace began to fuse the other elixir essences one by one, and in the end, only a mass of liquid fusion essence the size of an egg was left in the entire furnace.
