Chapter 338: Refining

The three days of immersing himself in the memory of Dan Chenzi's refining of the Blood Longevity Spirit Pill made Ye Qing familiar with this pill to the point of being incomprehensible. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He knew very well every step of the refining process, what state each medicinal material was processed into, whether it was dry or wet, whether it was powder or tablet, when each medicinal material was put in, when it was refined, when it was introduced into the essence of heaven and earth, when the flame should be big and when it should be small, how much temperature was needed, to what extent the medicinal materials needed to be refined, what kind of essence of heaven and earth was needed, and how much was needed to be introduced......

These details are often related to whether the alchemy can be successfully refined, and any mistake in any place will lead to mistakes in the subsequent steps one after another, and finally the chain reaction will lead to a great possibility of refining failure.

For ordinary alchemists, these things can only be explored over and over again by themselves, accumulating experience.

Even with the teacher's teachings, it is difficult to grasp every one of these countless details, such as putting another herb when the brewed medicinal liquid is cyan, but what is the so-called cyan to be green? Light green, grass green, dark green, or what kind of green? Or when a certain herb is put into a certain herb and immediately smelted with a fire, how big is this fire? 100 degrees, 500 degrees, or 2,000 degrees, there is no specific instrument and method to measure the temperature in the other world, and you can only rely on your own experience to find out.

This is still the simplest thing, as long as you practice it hundreds of times, or have an experienced teacher to teach you, you can still master it.

However, the introduction of the essence of heaven and earth is the most difficult step, everyone's soul is different, only one out of millions of people can clearly "see" the existence of the essence of heaven and earth, which is also the biggest reason why alchemists are extremely rare.

Often, the vast majority of alchemists only "see" the most common and largest number of Five Elements Essence, and it is difficult to capture those rare and strange Heaven and Earth Essences.

Only with the growth of cultivation, reaching a higher realm, and the soul becoming stronger, can we "see" more of the essence of heaven and earth.

This has also caused the phenomenon that high-level alchemists are often extremely strong in cultivation.

Of course, for some Dan Dao gifted demons, like Ye Qing, they can "see" countless kinds of heaven and earth essences from the beginning, except for the handful of the top heaven and earth essences, such as chaotic qi, Hongmeng purple qi, and yin and yang qi...... Almost all other essences of heaven and earth can be captured.

It can be said that such people are blessed and favored by God, as long as they persevere, they will have great achievements in the art of Dan Dao in the future.

The most difficult thing for ordinary alchemists, in their eyes, was the simplest thing.

However, for such people, they are also facing the same problem that ordinary alchemists face—soul strength!

Being able to see the essence of heaven and earth does not mean that it can be introduced into the elixir.

The rarer the essence of heaven and earth, the more difficult it is to capture, and even resist.

This is a catastrophic consequence in the alchemy process that extremely tests the accuracy of time, and the time for the integration of the essence of heaven and earth is a little late, which is the consequence of failure.

Only an alchemist with an extremely strong soul can make it easier to successfully refine the elixir!

Therefore, even if a person with Dan Dao talent and evil spirits sees more essence of heaven and earth, it does not mean that the alchemy technique is high, especially when the cultivation is low, the soul is weak, and it will not be much stronger than the average alchemist.

It's a pity that this is only for ordinary people, as the protagonist, Ye Qing is certainly not among them.

Whether it is Dan Dao talent or divine soul strength, Ye Qing is far superior to others!

Although he is only an acquired eightfold cultivator, his divine soul may not even be able to compare to him in terms of quality.

The only drawback is that the quantity is too small to withstand the wanton consumption.

However, for refining the Blood Longevity Spirit Pill, it was enough.

It stands to reason that he has Dan Chenzi's alchemy experience, Dan Dao talent is extremely demonic, and his soul strength is extremely strong, refining a first-order Blood Longevity Spirit Pill should be an extremely easy thing to capture.

However, Ye Qing was still not 100% sure.

What really limits his alchemy now is not experience, not talent, but flames!

If you refine a zero-order non-flowing elixir, you can barely use it with fire, but if you can enter the elixir, it is not something that ordinary flames can refine, or in other words, the difficulty has increased significantly.

In the elixir world, under the innate level, very few people can refine a first-order elixir.

Advanced elixir, the temperature of the flame is higher, some medicinal materials are harder than gold and iron, it is difficult for all fire to meet the requirements, for example, the flesh and blood of some fierce beasts can be used in medicine, if it is a congenital fierce beast, the flesh is extremely strong, even if it is hundreds of degrees of high temperature, the flesh and blood have not changed.

Some medicinal herbs, such as the Seven Yang Flame Grass that Ye Qing found in the secret realm before, are themselves fire-attribute elixirs, growing in blazing places, and are not afraid of ordinary flames at all, if they are some heavenly and earthly treasures that grow in magma, how can they be refined into pills with ordinary flames?

Therefore, if you want to become a qualified alchemist, a strange flame is an indispensable thing, or, a powerful cultivation!

When the cultivation is high enough, even if it is a yellow-level fire attribute technique, it can burst out with powerful flame power, as long as it is mastered steadily, although it is far worse than the different fire, it is enough to refine some low-level pills.

It's a pity that whether it's a different fire or a cultivation, Ye Qing doesn't have it now.

In addition to the temperature of the flame, the precise control of the flame is also a great problem in the process of alchemy.

For example, the last medicinal material needs to be slowly dried by simmering, and the next medicinal material needs to be directly roasted into powder at a very high temperature, and the temperature of the two may differ by hundreds of degrees.

Therefore, when they know that this situation will be encountered, low-level alchemists will often process the medicinal materials in advance, and those who need to be roasted into powder will burn the medicinal materials into powder before starting refining, and just put them directly when they use them.

This also leads to the fact that low-level alchemists still have a longer time to process medicinal materials in advance than the time for alchemy.

And if there is a different fire or the cultivation is strong, there is no need to spend these things at all, during the refining process, the temperature of the flame can skyrocket by hundreds of degrees as soon as the mind turns.

The only thing to be thankful for is that among all the medicinal materials required for the Blood Longevity Spirit Pill, a first-order elixir, there are no medicinal materials with a particularly high melting point.

And some medicinal materials that need to be processed in advance, Ye Qing naturally dealt with them in advance.

Removing these thoughts from his mind, looking at the pill that was gradually taking shape, a smile appeared at the corner of Ye Qing's mouth.

It's not in vain that he has worked hard for so long, and the Blood Longevity Spirit Pill is finally about to be successfully refined.

Being able to refine this order pill means that he already has the strength of a first-order alchemist.

Compared with this, what is even more gratifying is that the problem of Shouyuan can also be solved for the time being.

Even if the grade of this Blood Longevity Spirit Pill is not high, as long as he can increase his lifespan for half a year and a year, he will be sure to step into the Acquired Ninefold, or even the Innate Realm!

At that time, the longevity will skyrocket, and the crisis will be completely solved!

The liquid medicine in the Dan furnace made a sizzling sound, and the essence of heaven and earth was also pulled by Ye Qing like a waterfall, and even formed a faint mist above the Dan furnace, like a fairy like smoke, as long as the essence of heaven and earth and the liquid medicine were fused together, the blood longevity elixir would be completely completed!

Ye Qing was not too nervous at this time, in the process of refining the Blood Longevity Spirit Pill, he needed to fuse the essence of heaven and earth three times in total, and this was the third time.

The first two times were well fused, and this time, he is more confident.

And sure enough, under his control, the abundant heaven and earth essence gradually began to merge with the crimson magma-like medicinal liquid, gradually condensing into nine blood-red pills.

Ye Qing's face was serious, he had a hunch that his longevity had a few days or more than ten days left at most, and it would not exceed a month at most, if it failed, the consequences would ......

But fortunately, looking at this appearance, the Blood Longevity Spirit Pill has already become, and it is still nine Cheng Dan.

Ye Qing breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then raised his attention to the limit, concentrating on stabilizing the essence of heaven and earth.

At this time, there is no room for carelessness, and if there is a slight shock, the essence of heaven and earth will be chaotic, collide with the medicinal liquid, and explode, leading to failure!

However, what to be afraid of, at this moment, Ye Qing's heart suddenly tightened, and an extremely dangerous feeling rose in his heart.
