Chapter 63: The Difficulty of Alchemy
Li Hao, who is now four Dao foundations, has a lot stronger than before in various indicators of his physical body, and the speed of the imperial sword is also much faster than before.
Soon, Li Hao came to the place where the alchemy hall planted the elixir.
He planned to refine a Ming Sect "Dao Ji Dan" elixir.
This is the most basic elixir of the Dao Base Realm, and after absorbing it, it can not only improve your cultivation, but also have a certain chance to increase your cultivation bonus!
Swallowing "Dao Ji Dan" has more benefits than directly absorbing spirit stones for cultivation.
In addition to having a chance to increase the cultivation bonus, there are even some pills that can also be used to obtain some special skills!
This is also the reason why monks prefer to take drugs for cultivation.
There are many sources of obtaining pills, and in addition to refining them yourself, you can naturally buy them!
But the price, Li Hao said he couldn't afford it.
As Li Hao, who is still so poor that he has no backstage, he has just joined the Sword Pavilion and does not have many cultivation resources.
Learning alchemy, Li Hao is also well thought out.
First, you can obtain the pill at a very small price, after all, you only spend some raw material prices for your own alchemy, which is much cheaper than buying the pill directly.
Second, it is naturally very good for oneself to master one more skill.
Moreover, mastering the alchemy skills, you can completely achieve self-sufficiency in pills in the future.
At the same time, mastering the elixir skills can also bring a way to make money for yourself.
Liu Xing also introduced it to him in detail before, it is the most ordinary "Dao Ji Dan", one can be worth a hundred spirit stones. And it is still the kind with the worst quality, if the quality of refining is high enough, it is not impossible for a "Dao Ji Dan" to sell thousands of spirit stones.
And refining the "Dao Ji Dan" medicinal materials is not just two spirit stones.
In all, the alchemy industry can be described as an extremely violent industry.
This is also the reason why alchemy is highly sought after, if you can become an alchemist, the benefits are self-evident.
It's just that to become an alchemist, you still need a very high talent, and not everyone can become an alchemist.
Li Hao had learned the basic theory of alchemy before.
To refine the elixir into an elixir, not to mention the complicated steps, it also requires precise control of the flame and time.
There must be no mistakes in the refining process!
Once one of these steps is not done well, the quality of the elixir will be affected, and the refining will fail.
What's more, because the toxins in it have not been cleared up, the elixir is refined, but it is toxic.
This kind of poisonous elixir, no one wants to give it away.
As far as the cheapest second-level elixir "Dao Ji Dan" is concerned, even if you are familiar with it, refining it ten times, you can be considered a master among the masters if you can succeed once.
It can be seen that alchemy is a technical job that tests patience!
And with the higher the level and quality requirements of the elixir refined, the lower the chance of success.
As the most common second-level elixir, "Dao Ji Dan" is still so difficult to refine, which is also the reason why the fifth-level elixir "Transformation Pill" is very precious.
Even if Ye Lian, the first alchemy master of the Sword Pavilion, personally practiced for a year, he could only produce one "Transformation Pill".
In addition, the materials used in the Transformation Pill are also relatively rare, which also leads to the fact that every time Ye Lian refines a Transformation Pill, it is regarded as a treasure by the Sword Pavilion!
It's not so much that the pill is precious, but that the alchemist is more precious!
Because in the Sword Pavilion, only the Master of Ye Lian Hall was a level 5 alchemist, and the chance of success in refining a level 5 pill was also very low!
Even so, there is at least a chance of success. And the other alchemists of the fourth level or lower did not even have the possibility of refining.
You must know that there are no less than 100,000 cultivators in the Sword Pavilion, and among these 100,000 people, there is only one fifth-level alchemist Ye Lian! Even the fourth-level alchemists were counted with one pair of hands.
It can be seen that there is also an extreme lack of alchemists in the Sword Pavilion.
This is why Ye Lian tried his best to join the Alchemy Hall after seeing that he had the talent for alchemy, and even taught it himself!
There are really not many people with alchemy talent, and they are even extremely lacking.
Thinking of this, Li Hao also quickly arrived at the medicine field.
Of course, there are many medicinal fields in the Alchemy Hall, and Li Hao came here to grow the medicinal fields that can refine the medicinal materials of the Dao Ji Dan!
The monk who was guarding the important field was a little excited when he saw Li Hao coming over, and said, "Senior Brother Li, are you here to collect medicinal herbs?" I am the steward of this medicine field, if you need anything, just tell me, I will collect it for you! ”
When Li Hao heard the prestige, he saw a large flat land in front of him, with an area of more than 1,000 acres, and all kinds of elixirs grew in it.
Even if they were far away, Li Hao could smell bursts of medicinal fragrance!
It was an inner disciple wearing the clothes of the Sword Pavilion who spoke, and he should be older than himself, Li Hao said, "Senior brother, do you know me?" ”
"Hehe, of course I know! By the way, Senior Brother Li, my name is Wu Xiaoshuai! ”
Wu Xiaoshuai said with a smile: "Although Senior Brother Li has just joined my Alchemy Hall, we all know you, you must know that you are the only disciple who should be personally invited by the Master of Ye Lian Hall to join the Alchemy Hall, plus the incident you had in front of the Demon Suppression Tower before, you can easily defeat the master of four spirit pills with three Dao foundations, and now who in the Alchemy Hall does not know your name?" ”
"Senior Brother Li, you don't know, your portrait has already spread in the Alchemy Hall! That's all I know about you! ”
Wu Xiaoshuai recited all the lines, as the protagonist of this show, of course he knew Li Hao
It's just that Li Hao doesn't know about it.
"I see!"
Li Hao nodded, explained his intentions, and said, "Then please trouble Senior Brother to help me get some of the elixir of refining Dao 'Dao Ji Dan', I plan to go back and learn to refine Dao Ji Dan." ”
"Okay. I'll get the medicine for you! ”
Wu Xiaoshuai nodded, then walked to the medicine field with a hoe, and said as he walked: "I'll dig up the best ones for you!" ”
“……”
Li Hao sighed secretly, this senior brother is so enthusiastic!
He really wanted to say that he was here to buy some elixir to practice his hands.
"Well, the price is the same!" Li Hao looked at the senior brother who was digging the elixir and said, what looks good or not is not Li Hao's concern, he just wants to care about whether the price is expensive or not, who doesn't have much in his storage bag?
There were three hundred spirit stones before, plus those scavenged from Du Heng and Liu Xing's junior brothers, adding up to a thousand spirit stones.
But Li Hao still felt that he was very poor, and if he used it to buy "Dao Ji Dan", he could only buy about a dozen, which was not enough for his own cultivation.
"It's the same, Senior Brother Li, don't worry. Although I dug up the best quality elixir for you, the price is still the same! Wu Xiaoshuai said while digging the elixir at this time: "Hehe, although the price is the same, the effect is different, and the chance of refining the elixir into an elixir with higher quality is much greater!" Senior Brother Li, you are highly talented, if you succeed in refining 'Dao Ji Dan' in the future, you can sell me a few at a discount, and that's it!" ”
Hear the words
Li Hao understands!
It turns out that this guy hit this attention!
