Chapter 159: Alchemy and Channeling
The spirit stone thrown into the Danding quickly melted under Guo Xun's eyes, and finally turned into a crystal clear light blue liquid.
When the whole process of refining was over, Shang Wang began to explain the next steps to Guo Xun.
The two masses of liquid rotated around each other in the danding, then slowly approached, and finally slowly touched each other until the two masses of liquid completely fused together.
This is the second step of alchemy, and the liquid that is fused into a mass is the size of a fist, glowing with a light blue light.
Guo Xun was curious about what would happen next, how could he turn the liquid in the liquid state into an elixir in a solid state?
Shang Wang took the time to glance at Guo Xun, who was like a curious baby, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile, thinking that he was also in such a state back then.
This is an attitude that can achieve things, and it was precisely because of this attitude of being curious that Shang Wang was able to become a third-grade alchemist without losing his teacher.
Shang Wang continued to explain to Guo Xun some of the problems and steps encountered in the process of alchemy, after melting the liquid, it was condensate, condensation, psychic, and Chengdan.
When Shang Wang came to the step of channeling, his eyes flashed with essence, and the momentum of the whole person instantly became serious.
Channeling is the last step before becoming a pill, and this step is also the last chance to improve the quality of the pill.
The spiritual fire burning the elixir will make the elixir undergo a qualitative change, and this process of change is called channeling, channeling is the essence of alchemy, as long as you master this step, everything else is a floating cloud.
If you want to refine a top-grade, top-grade or even immortal elixir, you must have a special understanding of the step of channeling.
Some alchemists have reached the fourth, fifth, or even sixth grades, and the quality of the elixir they refine is still a mess, this kind of alchemist is just a virtual appearance, and if they can't master the true essence of the psychics, they will never be able to achieve a real alchemy master, or even a grandmaster.
Psychic needs to use spiritual fire to burn the pill that has been successfully condensed, and in the process of burning, it is necessary to observe the changes of the elixir to control the size of the spiritual fire.
Channeling can be said to be every alchemist's nightmare, and the slightest mistake in the other steps will eventually form the elixir, because these steps cannot make the elixir directly scrapped.
Psychic is different, this step is completely a thought of heaven and a thought of hell for the elixir, and if it fails, it will be scrapped directly and become a waste pill, and if it succeeds, of course, it will be a logical release of the pill.
Shang Wang was naturally cautious about this psychic step, and the explanation that was originally relaxed also stopped at this time.
Guo Xun also discovered this, but Guo Xun didn't think it was strange, after all, he heard that alchemy is not an easy thing, and being bold and careful is a necessary quality for an alchemist.
The heat and temperature of each step of alchemy are different, and these business hopes are all handed over to Guo Xun, who is also listening to it with taste on the side, and his eyes are always shining with wisdom.
Guo Xun is comprehending and feeling every word, every step, and every action that Shang Wang said.
The whole process of Shangwang alchemy went smoothly without the slightest delay, and this smooth feeling was pleasing to the eye, making Guo Xun feel as if he was appreciating art.
In the end, it only took a quarter of an hour to end the alchemy, and for a third-grade alchemist, refining a first-grade pill was completely at his fingertips.
But in order to show his strong alchemy strength in front of Guo Xun, a genius, Shang Wang did not relax at all in refining the Gathering Spirit Pill this time, and completely showed his 100% strength.
After all, in the eyes of Shang Wang, Guo Xun is an out-and-out genius, only by making the starting point a little higher can Guo Xun feel the pressure, if Guo Xun feels that alchemy is very simple, then how can he have the face of this master! Where is the majesty?
Shang Wang withdrew the spiritual fire, and the movements in his hands slowly stopped, and for a while, the Dan incense overflowed, and the entire alchemy room was filled with a faint fragrance, this fragrance Guo Xun was extremely familiar, and it was the unique fragrance of the Gathering Spirit Grass.
At this moment, there were five pea-sized light blue pills lying quietly in the Danding, and next to these five pills there were another five black pills.
These black pills emitted an indescribable stench, which made people unable to look at them directly, and these pills naturally needless to say were waste pills that failed to be refined.
Shang Wang didn't pay attention to these black pills, he stared at the inside of the Dan Ding, his eyes were full of surprise and shock, he looked at the Gathering Spirit Pill he had refined for a long time without saying a word.
He actually refined five finished pills at one time! Is this true? Gradually, Shang Wang changed from disbelief at the beginning to ecstasy later, and at this time, his whole body was trembling with excitement, and an indescribable joy filled his heart.
In the past, a maximum of three pieces were refined, but today there are somehow two more.
When Shang Wang was excited, it was always his white eyebrows that were injured, and at this time, his white eyebrows were about to be pulled off by him, and Guo Xun's expression became a little weird when he looked at Shang Wang, who was inexplicably excited.
Master, what's wrong! Didn't you say that what you were refining was the alchemist's introductory elixir? Why are you so excited! It's as if I've refined some kind of best elixir!
After being excited, Shang Wang took out the five light blue pills in the Danding, and then carefully observed them in his hand over and over again.
After careful comparison, Shang Wang's eyes couldn't help but show a fanatical color, and his breathing became heavier and heavier, and five of them were all medium-grade Gathering Spirit Pills!
After a while, Shang Wang found that one of the Gathering Spirit Pills was round and crystal clear, which was quite different from the other four, and Shang Wang's face suddenly changed!
Could it be that this elixir is not only a medium grade?
Although Shang Wang is a third-grade alchemist, he has never refined a medium-grade or higher elixir, and it can even be said that he has never even seen it.
The grade of the pill is very easy to divide, the main thing is to look at the impurities contained in the pill, the less impurities, the higher the grade of the pill, the more spiritual.
Impurities account for more than 60 percent of the pill, and this pill is a waste pill, and this pill is useless, and even highly toxic.
The impurities of Xia Pindan should be less, generally between 40 and 60 percent.
The impurities of the middle grade pill are less than 40 percent but higher than 20 percent, and the upper grade pill is between 10 and 20 percent.
As for the legendary Superb Pill impurities, it is less than ten percent, this pill is extremely difficult to refine, and it is necessary to ensure that every step is close to perfection.
In order to achieve this step, the alchemist's technique must reach the point of perfection, and more importantly, his own innate talent is the so-called spiritual root, and the quality of the spiritual root directly determines the quality of the spiritual fire you generate.
However, this heaven and earth always like some exceptions, there are naturally not a few divine objects in this world, and the naturally generated flames between heaven and earth are also one of them, but although this kind of psychic fire born in heaven and earth is the only choice for alchemists, it is too rare after all, and it is completely impossible to meet.
It is also very possible to refine the best elixir with the peak alchemy technique and high-quality flames, and many alchemy masters will occasionally have one or two top-grade pills in their entire alchemy career.
As for the legendary immortal elixir that shocked the earth and wept ghosts, it was really a rare treasure, this elixir was completely natural, and it did not contain any impurities.
Even if it is the most ordinary and lowest-level elixir, once it reaches the immortal product, the effect of the elixir will increase exponentially.
Moreover, this elixir also contains the laws of heaven and earth, because the immortal pill will attract a heavenly tribulation when it is psychic, and only the elixir that successfully survives the heavenly tribulation can be called an immortal elixir.
It is precisely because the Immortal Pill has survived the Thunder Tribulation that the Immortal Pill contains the laws of heaven and earth, and the laws of heaven and earth have a fatal attraction to any high-level cultivator.
