Chapter 207: The Eve of the Trial III
readx;? Cheng Lin easily doubled the value of the elixir, which gave Xin Yan a great shock, it turned out that it was so easy to earn spirit stones in alchemy, no wonder Cheng Lin was usually so generous. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"You must learn alchemy. Xin Yan secretly made up her mind.
Xin Yan received enough alchemy materials from the pharmacy, returned to the small courtyard, and began to learn to practice pills.
He carefully studied the jade slip he borrowed from Cheng Lin, and thought that he knew the preparation method of the [Qi Refining Pill] well, so he was full of confidence and ready to do a big job.
The first step in alchemy is to prepare elixirs, and this work is also very important, if the amount of various elixirs is slightly wrong, it will cause the failure of alchemy. He added the same materials that had been ground into powder into the prepared potion solution, then carefully mixed them and sealed them in a jade bottle. The next work is to put the liquid medicine into the Dan furnace and bake it over low heat, so that the medicinal properties of various elixirs can fully volatilize.
This step is very elaborate on fire control, and the firepower is too strong or too weak.
After half a day's hard work, after consuming more than 100 materials, Xin Yan finally made more than 30 copies of Dan billets.
Generally speaking, the success rate of a junior alchemist's refining of the pill billet is generally more than ninety out of five, and the success rate of Xin Yan is pitifully low in comparison. The waste of a large amount of medicinal materials made Xin Yan feel very heartbroken, and he couldn't help but make him a little worried about the success rate of his alchemy.
In order to improve the success rate of alchemy, Xin Yan specially found the Five Elements Guiyiding. The Five Elements Guiyi Ding is a four-grade alchemy furnace, which is simpler to operate and is very suitable for beginners.
The most important part of the alchemy furnace is the fire rune array engraved on the furnace body, the more subtle and detailed the fire rune array is, the higher the grade of the rune array, and the higher the grade of the elixir that the Dan furnace can refine.
Xin Yan held both hands in a fire symbol rune array on the furnace body, poured spiritual power into it, and tried to control the green fire rune array.
Fire control is the most important skill in the entire alchemy process, and if the fire control is not stable, the alchemy will fail.
According to the method recorded in the "Essentials of Alchemy", Xin Yan carefully controlled the Blue Fire Rune Array. The rune array in the first-grade alchemy furnace is not profound, and it can only give birth to more than ten kinds of changes.
Xin Yan closed his eyes, his hands were close to the fire pattern rune array on the furnace wall, carefully understanding the similarities and differences between the fire control of the rune array and the fingering fire control, and in a short time, he mastered the manipulation of this alchemy furnace.
Xin Yan played for a while, and felt that it was almost over, so he put a pill blank into the alchemy furnace, and then concentrated his spirit, put his hands on the fire emic rune array, and injected spiritual power into it. A trace of fire power was emitted from the alchemy furnace, wrapping the Dan billet, and soon the Dan billet changed, a trace of medicinal power was stimulated by the fire, and the impurities were burned away by the flame.
Although the Qi Refining Pill is a first-grade spirit pill, it is not easy to refine it, it needs to be refined seven times before it can fully stimulate the medicinal power in the pill billet and remove the impurities in the pill.
Xin Yan only insisted on refining for the third time, and his spiritual power was unstable.
Laugh at!
A wisp of black smoke rose from the alchemy furnace, and a burning smell filled the room.
Xin Yan looked at the black charcoal-like waste pill in the furnace, he didn't start the second alchemy immediately, but began to carefully analyze the cause of the problem just now, and look for a solution.
After a long time, Xin Yan woke up from his meditation, and he decided to try again, this time he made progress and persevered until the fifth refinement, but when he was about to transfer to the sixth refinement, his spiritual power input was a little hasty.
Laugh at!
From the alchemy furnace, the black smoke rose again, and the smell of burnt paste filled the room again.
Xin Yan did not stop this time, but continued to try, and after persevering for half an hour, he failed again, but compared to the previous two times, he made new progress, and he did not fail until the seventh refinement.
Three consecutive failures did not hit Xin Yan, he continued to devote himself to the next attempt, the fourth time still failed, and the fifth time still failed......
But Xin Yan was not discouraged, he tried again and again, and finally on the tenth time, he succeeded. Looking at the three crystal-like Qi Refining Pills in the furnace, Xin Yan felt a burst of excitement in his heart, and finally succeeded, although it was only a first-grade [Qi Refining Pill]. With the first success, Xin Yan's confidence in the next one greatly increased, and he refined ten furnaces in one go, but only succeeded in two furnaces.
Looking at the waste pill in one place, Xin Yan's face was bitter. He put in a total of 100 materials, but only made three furnaces, and this ultra-low success rate made Xin Yan very frustrated. Only then did he understand that it was not easy to earn spirit stones through alchemy.
He calculated that if the success rate did not reach fifty percent, he would not only not be able to earn spirit stones, but also pay spirit stones, which made him feel very depressed.
Only then did Xin Yan know that there was no difference between alchemy, refining and talismans, and if he wanted to increase his proficiency, he must go through a lot of practice, constantly summarize lessons and lessons, and constantly accumulate experience in order to improve his skills.
However, compared to the losses caused by the failure of the Fu Gong disciple's practice, and the alchemist consumes more materials per practice, each failure means that a large amount of spirit stone is turned into green smoke. This is also the reason why alchemists are more noble than other production cultivators.
Therefore, alchemists and refiners have always been from wealthy families, and only they have enough materials for them to squander. I only saw that Cheng Lin's alchemy success rate was extremely high, so I saw alchemy as easy, but I didn't think about how many times Cheng Lin had practiced to achieve her current achievements.
After Xin Yan cleaned up the alchemy room, he walked out, it was already late at night, there was silence around him, and while he was walking, he began to doubt whether his decision to choose alchemy was correct. The reason why he chose alchemy at this time was not to use alchemy to earn spirit stones, but to use this skill to increase his chances of survival in the secret realm.
In the spiritual mist secret realm, there are all kinds of strange flowers and plants, rare birds and spirit beasts, these are all excellent alchemy materials, if these materials can be refined into pills in the secret realm, then the stipulation that he can only carry fifty pills into the secret realm is just a dead letter to him.
Originally, Xin Yan thought that with his own fire control techniques, learning to refine the elixir would only be a matter of course, but Xin Yan still underestimated the difficulty of alchemy.
He knew that if there was no miracle, he was afraid that this time it would be difficult to realize his idea. With a glimmer of hope, he entered the sea of knowledge and wanted to ask the red demon for help. Who knew that the red demon was not in his sea of consciousness, but hiding in Nirvana.
Nirvana has fallen into a deep sleep since the last time he devoured the sword test platform, and he has not woken up. Xin Yan has been so busy every day these days that she forgot about it.
As soon as he thought of this verse, Xin Yan infiltrated a wisp of his mind into Nirvana, only to see that his appearance in Nirvana had changed greatly. There was only a small mass of five-colored gas in the original Nirvana, but the five-colored gases in the current Nirvana are hundreds of times more powerful than before, and they are suspended in the void within Nirvana, circulating endlessly.
And under this boundless five-colored gas, there was a large black water pool, the area was several acres large, the water surface was full of gray mysterious gas, and in the middle of the water pool, there was a black spot, Xin Yan floated over to take a look, and found that this black spot was actually a floating island and reef, the island and reef were only two or three zhang large, and there was nothing on it.
"What's going on?" Xin Yan was so shocked that she couldn't even keep her mouth shut.
"Nirvana devoured the sword test platform and decomposed the contents into Xuanshui and the essence of the five elements. The Red Demon didn't seem surprised by what was in front of him.
Xin Yan was ecstatic when he heard this, the essence of the five elements and Xuanshui are the most precious of the four materials, even if it is a little star, it can be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones, if you can take out these essence of the five elements and Xuanshui and sell them, the resulting spirit stones can almost buy most of the Seven Star City.
The red demon seemed to see Xin Yan's thoughts, and poured a basin of cold water on his head: "Anything that enters Nirvana can only enter, not exit." You can go in and out of Nirvana, but you can't take anything from Nirvana. ”
When Xin Yan heard this, he was in great pain, and wailed: "Alas, why is my brother so miserable, I have raised a bunch of foodies." ”
The Red Demon snorted coldly and said, "I really can't understand how Nirvana recognized you as the master of such earthy buns." ”
"Nirvana can be called the most magical artifact in the world, it can decompose any item into the five elements of essence and Xuansha qi, when the five elements of essence and Xuansha qi are rich enough, it can give birth to the essence of the five elements and the water of Xuansha, if the five essences and Xuansha water are enough, pure enough, and eventually can give birth to the origin of divine power......"
