Chapter 71 Ancient Alchemy
Since it was the refining master who asked again, Ye Xiang naturally would not refuse, and took out another set of materials, as before, refining a bottle of Huiyuan Elixir, and wiped it with his hand, accompanied by the five-color luster, it was a bottle of pure Huiyuan Elixir.
Master Lian didn't say a word, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
"Alas......" The refining master sighed, and couldn't help but praise: "Xiaoyou's refining method is really mysterious. ”
Ye Xiang was thick-skinned, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, in fact, no matter how many times he refined, it was the same, for him, even if it was an explosive agent, as long as there was a trace of the finished elixir in the Huiyuan Elixir, all the impurities could be refined.
"Xiaoyou's refining method seems dull, but it reminds me of the original intention of refining potions in the first place......" The refining master raised his head slightly, his thoughts drifted into the distance, and he muttered for a long time: "When I first refined potions, it was because I liked it, so I devoted myself to it. Now after so many years, I have been dazzled by many things, even the identity of a high-level pharmacist, I can't help but immerse myself in it, but I have forgotten that refining potions must not forget the original intention......"
As he spoke, Master Lian's eyes lit up, and he immediately raised his head and laughed, "I see, I see, no wonder I've been swaying for a while, but it's limited by my so-called identity." I have been refining potions for more than 40 years, and I rarely fail, and after reaching the advanced pharmacist, I rarely make mistakes, and even if I make mistakes, I will ......use my experience to correct them."
"So much so that I am trapped in the name of the three high-level pharmacists of the Great Li Dynasty, and I don't dare to fail, let alone ruin this reputation......"
"Don't forget the original intention...... Don't forget your original intention...... How many times did I fail when I first made a potion...... Eighty times, he was still refining, and that feeling was ......" The light in the eyes of the refining master became brighter and brighter.
Ye Xiang was a little puzzled, but Meng Cha on the side was full of joy, and the medicine master was happy. Apothecaries, like martial cultivators, reach a certain level with bottlenecks, some of which may be caused by heart knots, and some of which may be caused by some reason.
The bottleneck is the most terrible nightmare for apothecaries and martial cultivators, and once it appears, it can be trapped in place for the rest of their lives, unable to go any further.
Master Lian is already a high-level pharmacist, but he has been staying in this realm for ten years, and he has not been able to go further, but his old opponent, Master Yao Xuan, is constantly improving, and Master Lian is anxious, but he has never been able to find the reason.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xiang's refining actually made the refining master realize and open the heart knot, although it was not possible to improve the refining ability for the time being, but as long as the heart knot was knotted, the refining master could go further in refining the potion.
Master Lian seemed to be immersed in the memories of the past, and it took a long time before he came back to his senses, turned his head to Ye Xiang and said, "Little friend, thank you." ”
"I didn't do anything below, why did the master thank me?" Ye Xiang was puzzled.
"Xiaoyou has helped me break the knot in my heart for many years, so I should naturally thank Xiaoyou."
Master Lian smiled slightly and said, "I owe Xiaoyou a favor, if Xiaoyou needs it in the future, you can come to me." ”
Owe a favor......
If the major martial arts cultivators in Penglai City heard this, their eyes would definitely be red with envy, they couldn't even invite Master Lian to come to their home as a guest, and Ye Xiang actually made Master Lian owe a favor.
The favor of a high-level pharmacist is almost priceless. If Ye Xiang is willing, it is okay to ask Master Lian to help refine a bottle of elixir and repay this favor.
Pills......
Only high-level pharmacists can refine it, and it is the top-level potion, and any bottle released is enough to shake the entire Dali Dynasty.
In a good mood, the refining master chatted with Ye Xiang, most of them were talking about the refining of potions, as well as the distinction of various materials, and the acquisition of some rare materials.
I have to say that Master Lian is indeed worthy of the name of a high-level pharmacist, not only is he well-informed, but also his analysis of various rare materials is extremely fine, and Ye Xiang was immediately fascinated when he heard it. Of course, the refining master also took this opportunity to mention Ye Xiang here, and even told him some of his unique refining methods.
Meng Cha on the side was ecstatic, what Master Lian said was summed up from his lifelong experience, even if he was an apprentice of Master Lian, he didn't have the opportunity to get such a point, but he didn't expect that today it was stained with Ye Xiang's light.
What Meng Cha said along the way before was also subtle, but it was more than one level lower than that of the refining master, whose understanding of potions had reached a very high level.
Although Ye Xiang had been in contact with potions a little, he was still only superficial about potions in the past, but now when he heard Master Lian talk about potions, he had a feeling of sudden enlightenment, as if he had been very proficient in potions a long time ago.
Especially in some refining methods, Ye Xiang can understand it almost as soon as he hears it, even if it is obscure, he can understand it.
This feeling is very strange, it is clear that Ye Xiang is not very deep in contact with the potion, but he can understand the more advanced method of the potion. It's like a martial arts cultivator with extraordinary talent, a character with martial wisdom, for any martial art, as long as you look at it, you can understand it, and you can even display it perfectly.
"Am I really gifted with this?" Ye Xiang said in his heart, but he didn't think too much about it, but listened attentively to the refining master explaining some refining methods.
This is a rare opportunity, there is a high-level pharmacist who explains the things of potions in simple terms, and these things are what Ye Xiang lacks the most. As Master Lian gushed his explanations, Ye Xiang noticed some problems.
"Master Lian, in terms of fusing materials, it is better to use Xuanhuo, but Xuanhuo will restrain some materials, and even affect fusion. Generally speaking, it is to add polar ice to neutralize, but the polar ice is extremely cold, and adding it will affect the effect of Xuanhuo, and the effect of the final fusion is even worse than simply ......refining it with Xuanhuo," Ye Xiang said.
"Oh? Do you have any suggestions? ”
"I think that if you add a hypothetical agent as an adjunct, you should be able to achieve the best fusion effect." Ye Xiang said.
"Inflammatory ......" Moncha couldn't help but interject: "The anti-inflammatory potion will make the Xuanhuo more intense, and even burn the material...... In the end, it will ruin the material, which is not feasible. ”
"Inflammatory agents...... The idea is unique, and the anti-inflammatory agent will make the fire stronger...... It's really a problem......" Master Lian frowned again.
"What if we add the gold essence?"
"Golden Essence ......" Master Lian was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "Why did Xiaoyou think of joining Golden Essence?" ”
"Gold essence is gold, easy to melt into fire, can dissolve the flame of the flame, and the gold essence itself is refined, will not affect the rest of the materials, so adding to it, not only will not let the materials burn out, but may be able to achieve the best effect......," Ye Xiang said.
Hearing this, the eyes of Meng Cha and Master Lian suddenly lit up. They have been refining potions for many years, whether they can use it or not, they only need to simulate it in their minds, and this whimsical idea proposed by Ye Xiang is indeed very feasible.
Subsequently, the three of them continued to talk about various refining methods, although most of them were said by the refining master, Meng Cha occasionally asked questions, and Ye Xiang rarely spoke, but every time Ye Xiang opened his mouth, it was able to make the refining master's eyes shine, so that he couldn't help but continue to study deeply.
"Little Brother Ye, sit down, let's have a cup of tea and talk slowly." Master Lian made a gesture of please, and at the same time said to Meng Cha on the side: "You go and make a pot of Qianyun Yunluo tea." ”
Qianyun Yunluo Tea ......
Moncha's eyes widened.
Qianyun Yunluo tea, but Master Lian finally obtained, only a little, on weekdays are reluctant to drink, unless it is a distinguished guest, such as Master Lian's friend or something, maybe there is a little chance to taste a little.
Meng Cha remembered that he drank Qianyun Yunluo tea three years ago, when Master Lian was in a good mood and rewarded him with a cup.
Now, he actually wants to take out such a rare and extremely valuable thing, and he is still sitting opposite Ye Xiang, which makes Meng Qia's heart even more shocked, is it possible for this Ye Xiang to become a high-level pharmacist or above in the future? Otherwise, even if the refining master cherishes his talents, he will not let a junior sit against him.
Pharmacists are a group of arrogant people, even if the person in front of them is a martial saint, the refining master will not be so polite.
By the way, Master Fang Cailian called Ye Xiang a little brother Ye, and even changed his title, Meng Cha was even more sure that Ye Xiang would definitely have a broader future than him in the future in the potion.
After going to make tea in front of Meng Cha, Ye Xiang couldn't help but say, "Master Lian, I have something I want to ask. ”
"Oh? Brother Ye, please speak. ”
"That's right, I have a friend who has been researching the way of refining recently, and plans to refine the Nine Turns Golden Spirit Fruit." Ye Xiang said.
"Refining the Nine Turns Golden Spirit Fruit?" The refining master was taken aback for a moment, and then said slowly: "This Nine Turns Golden Spirit Fruit is one of the elixirs, it is extremely rare, and it is the best to use it to refine the elixir. But when it comes to refining, it's extremely difficult, and even I can only refine half of it at most. ”
Master Lian thought that Ye Xiang planned to let him help, anyway, he owed a favor before, and it was nothing to help with this.
"Well, my friend was probably able to refine up to sixty percent. This nine-turn golden spirit fruit is quite rare, and refining sixty percent should be considered good, but I still want to refine more...... That's why I took the liberty of asking the refining master, is there any other way to refine it? Ye Xiang said.
Hearing this, the refining master's expression became strange, and there was a trace of shock in his eyes that could not be concealed, being able to refine the Nine Turns Golden Spirit Fruit into sixty percent was no longer a means only available to high-level pharmacists, at least it had to be a top-level pharmacist. As for the friend Ye Xiang said, Master Lian is estimated to be Ye Xiang's mentor or something.
Sixty percent is not enough, and we still need to refine more......
Master Refining didn't answer immediately, but hesitated for a moment and said, "Little Brother Ye, I won't tell you, this Nine Turns Golden Spirit Fruit can be refined into sixty percent, which is already the limit, and it is almost impossible to reach even higher......
"That's right." Ye Xiang looked regretful.
"If that friend of yours really wants to pursue a higher refining effect...... "The refining master pondered for a moment and said, "I do know there is a way. It is an ancient method that can be refined to more than ninety percent, but this ancient method is extremely cumbersome, and it also requires a lot of extremely rare materials. ”
"Oh? How? ”
"This method is called ancient alchemy, and I don't know how many years it has been circulating, and I also saw it in an unusually ancient classic."
