Chapter 168: Trying Alchemy
After cleaning up his mood, Lei Tianqing was ready to start alchemy. "First of all, what alchemy needs is to control the fire, the best way to control the flames, you need to use runes to piece together a special formation, which is used to trigger the flames.www.biquge.info ”
After a pause, Lei Tianqing suddenly said: "Xiaoxiang, you are the best at this, help me design a formation." "There's no way, Lei Tianqing himself is not very proficient in these things, and if he studies it by himself, I'm afraid it will take a long time.
Xiao Xiang said indifferently: "Formation, there's no problem, it's just a matter of adding a few runes, and you can control it by using your mental energy." Using the Nian Qi Auxiliary Formation to alchemy, the success rate of alchemy is very high, and even the quality can be improved a lot. Xiao Xiang's words made Lei Tianqing's mood better and better.
"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up. Lei Tianqing couldn't help but prepare to try.
But suddenly, Xiao Xiang's words changed: "Using the rune seal flame requires a stable energy source. This energy source is usually made of Yuanjing. A piece of low-grade Yuan Jing is enough for you to use it for more than a month. ”
Lei Tianqing's face stiffened suddenly. "What, what? Why do you want Yuanjing, why didn't you say it earlier. "My own Yuan Jing has long been exchanged for gold coins to buy medicinal materials, and now I don't have a single one on my body.
Xiao Xiang said indifferently: "Obviously, you decided to buy medicinal materials by yourself, and you didn't discuss it with others." You can do it yourself, if it doesn't work, then let someone help you refine the pill. Xiao Xiang said indifferently.
Lei Tianqing sighed: "Okay, okay, you won, but I still plan to try it first." If you don't have a rune formation, you can use firewood, but it's a little more troublesome to control. ”
Lei Tianqing determined the method, and he didn't care so much, and directly asked his subordinates to transport a lot of firewood. In this courtyard, Lei Tianqing cleaned up a room, which was specially used to store the alchemy furnace in the future. The alchemy furnace was placed in the middle, and below it was a large brazier. "Firewood can be used, but it's not as good as charcoal, forget it, let's make do with firewood first. ”
Anyway, it's just an experiment, and Lei Tianqing doesn't care so much. Firewood is placed underneath and lit, and the surrounding windows are opened for ventilation. At the same time, the windows are also specially reinforced, so that too much wind will not blow in and affect the alchemy.
When the alchemy furnace was heated, Lei Tianqing added water to it, and then put in various medicinal materials, and it was not in any specific order. "The refining of low-grade pills is really easy, not at all like the legendary alchemy. ”
When all the medicines were put into it, Lei Tianqing closed the lid of the alchemy furnace and jammed the surrounding moving mechanisms, so that the lid of the alchemy furnace and itself were completely stable, and would not move due to too strong pressure.
"You'd better watch the heat here, forget it, it's better for someone to help you, if you say it yourself, eighty percent will fail." Xiao Xiang said in Lei Tianqing's heart. Hearing this, Lei Tianqing was completely relieved.
"Great, I can sit back and relax with your help, I'll practice for a while, and you can call me when it's almost time." Lei Tianqing directly placed a cushion next to him, and then sat on it and began to cultivate the Sense Thunder Seal. Since he had storage space, Lei Tianqing had packed a lot of things in it, and there were even a lot of useless sundries.
"Really, I want to learn alchemy so lazily, how did I know such a person. Xiaoxiang felt sorry for herself.
I don't know how long it has been, Lei Tianqing felt the vibration in his mind non-stop, so he stopped the cultivation of the thunder seal and opened his eyes. "Almost, okay, I'm going to prepare. Lei Tianqing got up and walked to the alchemy furnace.
Observing slowly, Lei Tianqing was comparing the steps recorded in the alchemy books, but he was still a little unclear. "Hurry, it's time. Xiao Xiang suddenly spoke.
Lei Tianqing didn't think about it, and slapped the alchemy furnace on it. Nian Qi gushed out, and the twelve snake heads above opened their mouths at the same time. Then, a stream of white gas erupted, like when a pressure cooker was deflated, making a "bang" sound. For a long time, the whole room was covered with clouds and mist, as if in a fairyland.
At the same time, a fragrant medicinal fragrance emanated, slowly becoming rich, and finally slowly dissipating.
"This ordinary refining method is really a waste of medicinal power, if these medicinal fragrances can be collected and condensed into pills, at least one or two of them. Xiao Xiang said with some pity.
"Of course, how can ordinary alchemy methods compare to you. Lei Tianqing didn't care. Add some firewood, keep the flame going, and then sit on the side again and continue to cultivate the Sense Thunder Seal.
I have to say that the Sense Thunder Seal is much gentler than the Guiding Thunder Seal, don't look at the speed at which the Sense Thunder Seal absorbs power and refines the mind qi, but the pressure on itself is relatively small. According to Lei Tianqing's own calculations, cultivating the Thunder Seal, he was able to cultivate for two to three hours a day. With his current situation, it only takes a few days to break through to the second layer of Qi Gathering.
"What are you doing, why is it so fragrant. A few people who smelled the fragrance walked to the side of the room where Lei Tianqing was. Usually Lei Tianqing has a relatively gentle temperament, so these people are also more casual.
The housekeeper came over and waved his hand: "What are you doing here, don't you want to work?" Let me tell you, the adults in our family are doing alchemy, and if you don't understand alchemy, don't come and disturb casually. ”
When everyone heard the butler's words, their faces suddenly became reverent. "Alchemy, it turns out that the adults in our family are still alchemists, no wonder it's so fragrant. I've heard people say that some alchemists do this when they do alchemy. ”
"Is that so, I don't know if you can get a reward for a good job. I heard that pills are very expensive and rare. If I can get one, I'll be able to envy those people when I get it back. ”
The subordinates were arguing and slowly drifting away. Soon, there was only one butler left. The housekeeper's eyes were also full of envy. "Alchemist, the adults of our family are really not simple, no wonder even the tutors of the academy take the initiative to come to us. After saying that, the butler slowly left with a look of pride and pride.
On the side of Tanglin Academy, the alchemist is very noble. There are a lot of masters here, but they are worthless in everyone's eyes. The number of alchemists is too small, and each of them will be sought after by the crowd in the city.
Lei Tianqing didn't know what was happening outside, at this time Lei Tianqing was cultivating on the side, and was woken up by Xiao Xiang from time to time, and then deflated the alchemy furnace. It seemed that the back and forth had been tossed for four or five hours, and Lei Tianqing had to deflate almost every quarter of an hour during the period. The water vapor in such a large alchemy furnace was slowly repelled clean.
Because of the internal structure of the alchemy furnace and the special runes, the water vapor slowly condensed, converging little by little, until it was finally close to forming. "Wake up, the last step, this step is related to whether it can be successful or not. ”
Lei Tianqing woke up again, although he couldn't feel the time every time he cultivated, but after being woken up so many times in a row, Lei Tianqing was also a little mentally exhausted. "Finally, I think about it, by the way, the last step is to activate the runes on the alchemy furnace. "This step, as long as anyone has a little attribute power can do it, the question is whether it can be controlled.
Originally, the alchemy furnace that Lei Tianqing bought was not ordinary, it was a top-level ordinary alchemy furnace, even if the runes were activated, they had to rely on their mindful qi. Lei Tianqing put his hands on the top of the alchemy furnace, and he would not feel hot when his thoughts were isolated.
Then, the mind qi was stimulated, and the purple light flashed on both sides of the hands, submerging into the alchemy furnace, and the runes on the alchemy furnace also emitted bright light in an instant. Lei Tianqing couldn't see the changes inside the alchemy furnace, and could only faintly feel something.
It seems that some of the things inside are slowly converging towards the middle, and then they are naturally divided into one by one, divided and condensed, and then formed into a clump. Then, inside the alchemy furnace, there seemed to be a special force, which was constantly washing inside, constantly gathering and gathering some medicinal power.
Through the surrounding runes, little by little, the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi continued to gather in the middle, and when Lei Tianqing closed his eyes, he could feel that the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi here was much richer. And the fire qi was quickly repelled out.
It is true that alchemy uses flames, but the pill itself does not necessarily like flames. "It should be, it's done. Lei Tianqing continued to stimulate his own thoughts, and said with some uncertainty at the same time.
Xiao Xiang opened her mouth and said, "That's right, it's done, you can stop." However, don't open the lid of the alchemy furnace immediately, just wait for a while. If you open it immediately now, the inside and outside are not hot and cold, and it is very likely that the pill will crack. In that case, even if the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi is absorbed, it will not be preserved, it will only pass away. ”
In terms of alchemy, Xiao Xiang is much stronger than herself, who is not as good as herself. Lei Tianqing naturally would not insist on going his own way, but waited quietly, and when he arrived, of course, he would continue to cultivate as before.
When he was woken up by Xiao Xiang again, Lei Tianqing knew that the time had come. "Haha, the furnace is on, it's the first time to do alchemy, I'm really excited. Lei Tianqing opened the mechanism on the lid, and then opened the alchemy furnace.
As soon as the lid was opened, a rich fragrance diffused. "It's the scent of the elixir. ”
"Hmph, unqualified products, if the medicinal power is completely astringent, it is impossible to emit so many fragrances. ”
Lei Tianqing said indifferently: "Do you think everyone is the same as you, besides, even if it is some impurities, it will also have a medicinal fragrance." "Xiao Xiang is the ancestor of the alchemy furnace, how can ordinary alchemy be compared to Xiao Xiang. After speaking, Lei Tianqing didn't care, climbed on top of the alchemy furnace, put his hand in, and took out the things inside one by one. (To be continued.) )
