Chapter 14: The Apprentice of Alchemy

"Boy, how about it, this set of wind fire control techniques is much better to use than the set of fire control formulas just now. ”

Wang Yuetian heard Old Man Hong's question, and he pretended to be a little excited on the surface

"Indeed, as the helmsman said, this set of wind system fire control techniques consumes relatively little true yuan, and the trajectory of the movement is much simpler, and the disciples are more comfortable to master. Thank you for the helmsman. ”

Old man Hong saw that Wang Yuetian seemed to have really fallen into his own trap unconsciously, and he was naturally in a good mood, so he couldn't help but stroke his beard and said proudly

"It's nothing, it's the job of us, the older generation, to promote the younger generation. In this way, while the hour is still early, let's extract this life stone first.

Although this stone of life is precious, it is not very difficult to extract. Just use the wind control technique I just taught you to control the heat and melt the plasticized part outside the rough stone. You try it now. ”

Wang Yuetian was also taken aback when he heard that this old man Hong actually let himself extract this life stone now, after all, he had no experience in gem extraction at all.

As if seeing Wang Yuetian's hesitation, Old Man Hong couldn't help but speak

"It's okay, there's nothing difficult about this spirit stone extraction, you just have to be bold and try. I'll be there to guide you, and I'll be there if something goes wrong. ”

When Wang Yuetian heard Old Man Hong say this, he still hesitated

"Thank you for your trust, but after all, the disciple has never extracted a spirit stone before, and this life stone is so precious, do you want to use other ordinary ores to practice your hands first?"

When Old Man Hong heard this, his face was slightly displeased

"Ordinary ore, do you think there will be such a thing in the old man's refining room?"

After listening to Old Man Hong's awesome words, Wang Yuetian had a deeper understanding of Old Man Hong's pretending character in his heart.

"What the helmsman taught me is that it is indeed the disciple who has lost his words. In fact, with a refining master like the helmsman by his side, not to mention this life stone with average extraction difficulty, even if it is other gems with higher extraction difficulty, there is no reason to fail. ”

When Old Man Hong heard Wang Yuetian's sycophant slap, he immediately felt a lot more comfortable. On weekdays, most of the disciples of the Refining Weapon Sect are some refining maniacs, and some disciples have not left the refining room for several months, so that they can't even understand the words. Where would Wang Yuetian be so knowledgeable.

"Lord Hongruo, before refining the weapon, the disciple would like to ask, did the black fossils around this gem fall directly into this furnace fire after it melted away?"

When Old Man Hong heard Wang Yuetian ask this, he replied without thinking

"Yes, what we want is the Life Stone, and the other useless parts will naturally be discarded. ”

Wang Yuetian's heart sank when he heard this, but after only thinking about it for a while, he said to Lord Hongru

"Helmsman, the disciple has a reluctant request. ”

When Old Man Hong heard Wang Yuetian's words, he couldn't help but be stunned

"What reluctance?" you say. ”

"The disciple hopes that the fossils around these rough stones will survive after they melt. ”

"Huh, why is that?"

Wang Yuetian's request really made Old Man Hong a little puzzled, and he said with some puzzlement

"These surrounding black stones and some shiny stones don't look good, but in fact they are just ordinary ores, and they are of little value. Just throw it away. ”

When Wang Yuetian heard this, he seemed to deliberately show that the ground was red, and said

"The disciple knew that these companion stones were of little value compared to this Life Stone. But this life stone is my first gift to Yiren, for me, I hope that I can be like these inconspicuous ores guarding the life stone has always guarded Yiren.

Therefore, the disciple planned to give the life stones to Yiren, and he used these extracted ores to melt into a necklace and carry it with him from time to time. ”

When Old Man Hong heard Wang Yuetian's description, he couldn't help but feel more happy in his heart, and his eyes looking at Wang Yuetian became more softened.

"I can't see that your kid still has such a delicate mind. Okay, don't worry, I'll find a way to help you collect these ores after you refine them in a while. ”

Wang Yuetian's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately bowed to Lord Hongrud

"Thank you, helmsman. ”

Seeing this, Old Man Hong stroked his beard with satisfaction and smiled

"In that case, let's get started. ”

"The disciple obeyed. ”

As he spoke, Lord Hong took Wang Yuetian to an earth furnace and pointed to the earth furnace with his finger

"This earth furnace is the simmering furnace among the eight earth fire furnaces in my refining room. The fire in this furnace is constant and stable all year round, making it perfect for beginners like you.

You first hold the rough stone in place with crystal tongs, and then you start to run the fire control technique, gradually getting used to controlling the temperature of the flame. You try it first. ”

When Wang Yuetian heard this, he immediately followed Old Man Hong's instructions step by step, and as the amount of true qi gradually increased, the flames in his furnace also burned more and more vigorously.

And at this moment, a puff of green smoke rose from the raw stone of life stone in the furnace, and Wang Yuetian was shocked at the first time he saw this phenomenon: how could he forget this sulfide.

So, before Old Man Hong could speak, he closed his mouth and nose as soon as possible.

Just as Wang Yuetian was about to further stop the operation of his true qi, he saw that the green smoke was actually sucked by several strange-shaped gilded beasts on the furnace wall.

At this time, Old Man Hong's voice came slowly from the side

"The process of refining this life stone will produce some poisonous smoke. As long as you inject your True Qi into this Gilded Cloud Swallowing Beast, this Cloud Swallowing Mechanism will automatically absorb these poisonous smoke and dust. ”

Hearing these somewhat afterthought-like words, Wang Yuetian's face couldn't help but turn a little blue: You must know that the green smoke just now is a real high-concentration sulfide particle, if you let yourself take a puff, it will be good for you.

Seeing Wang Yuetian's not good-looking face, Old Man Hong was also a little embarrassed, after all, since he cultivated into the Golden Pill, there were few mineral dust that could hurt him. And Old Man Hong is usually the master of a rudder, so it is impossible to teach his disciples from the basics. If it weren't for this Wang Yuetian's quick reaction, it was really possible to accidentally hurt him due to his carelessness. But the old man Hong, who wanted to save face, still insisted on it

"Actually, this is a test for you by the old man. It turns out that your kid reacts fast enough, yes, yes. ”

When Wang Yuetian heard this, he scolded secretly in his heart, but he still forced a smile on the surface.

Old man Hong saw Wang Yuetian's unnatural smile, and suddenly said with a flash of inspiration in his mind

"Actually, I learned this trick from the Poisoner Hall next door. The Ghost King Hall next door is to study the effects of various poisons on the human body.

One of the compulsory classes was alchemy, in which each disciple would be kept in a closed room with a large cauldron in which a corpse was boiled in order to get each disciple used to the smell of corpses. Only when the disciples inside smell the yellow corpse gas in the room and stop gagging, can they become disciples of the inner sect of the Poisoner Hall. ”

After saying this, Old Man Hong couldn't help but peek at Wang Yuetian's expression, but saw that after Wang Yuetian heard this terrifying story, his face was calm, and there was no change in the slightest. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said urgently

"Well, boy, you don't think I'm making a joke about you. I didn't lie to you at all. Old man, I was careless for a while, and I vomited for three days after smelling a little yellow corpse gas, and then I directly changed to a vegetarian diet. ”

seemed to think of the bad things back then, and Old Man Hong's face became a little sallow for a while. And when Wang Yuetian saw this change in Old Man Hong, he had his own thoughts in his heart.

In fact, he had just heard Old Man Hong say that the poisonous hand hall boiled the corpse, so he believed it seven points, because if ordinary people have not seen the process of boiling the corpse, it is impossible to know that after the corpse is boiled, it is not white smoke but yellow smoke due to the materialization effect. This phenomenon was also known to him when he watched previous live human experiments in the laboratory.

And through Old Man Hong's several descriptions of this poisonous hand hall, he has a few interests in this poisonous hand hall in his heart.

Just as Wang Yuetian was secretly thinking about it, the life stone rough stone slowly began to melt.

Seeing this situation, the expressions of the two people guarding the stove changed.

I saw that the old man Hong on the side suddenly took out an iron pot-like thing from the hanging wall next to the stove, and then stared at the ore liquid that was about to drip out.

As the muddy water dripped, Old Man Hong's eyes flashed, and then he detained the original liquid in the pot at an extremely fast speed.

In the next quarter of an hour, with the flickering of the pot shadow again and again, the life stone rough stone was finally separated little by little.

"Whew... ”

When the last life stone separated, Wang Yuetian finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

However, the helmsman on the side took out a wooden mold at some point, and poured the melted iron juice into it.

Old man Hong, whose mood seemed to be disturbed by the Poison Hand Hall, handed the mold to Wang Yuetiandao

"Alright, when the iron juice cools, your necklace will be ready. It's not too early, so let's take this mold back to the hall first.

Wait for you to come to me again tomorrow, and I will teach you the method of hammering. Let you create a decent set of life stone jewelry for Yiren as soon as possible. ”

After Wang Yuetian took the wooden mold as much as he could, his heart moved, and then he saluted respectfully to Old Man Hong and said

"Thank you, Lord Hongruo, the disciple retired. ”

"Well, go ahead. ”

When Wang Yuetian walked out of Lord Hongruo's refining room, the red sun had already set, and the two half-curved moons were already hanging high above the black sky.

Looking at the scene of two moons and the same day unique to this cultivation world, Wang Yuetian also felt a sense of homesickness in his heart. But soon, this feeling was forcibly suppressed by him. After all, although this world makes it hardly feel familiar, this world has the art of immortality that it has been pursuing. Perhaps, this is where you really belong!

Thinking of this, Wang Yuetian couldn't help but hold the wooden mold in his hand that was related to the Blood Transformation Demon Skill tighter!!
