Chapter 654: Refining the Combined Pill
Qingfeng understood the meaning of Chief Manager Qi and the City Lord sending guards to him, and he also understood the City Lord's distress in doing this, so he didn't feel anything wrong, but directed at President Qi: "Then bother the two seniors outside." ”
After arranging Qingfeng's affairs here, Chief Manager Qi returned to the City Lord's Mansion to report his work, leaving only the two guards to guard the outside of the small courtyard where Qingfeng lived.
After Manager Qi left, Qingfeng closed his courtyard and made a posture of retreating for a long time. The two guards outside and the innkeeper probably knew what Qing Feng was going to do, and they were not surprised, they just quietly guarded outside, driving away all the hidden dangers that could affect his alchemy for Qing Feng.
Qingfeng first took out all the materials sent by Mr. Qi, sorted them out according to the steps of alchemy, and then slightly cultivated his spirit in the alchemy room, and then Qingfeng was ready to start refining the combined pill.
The Combined Pill is the highest-grade pill that Qingfeng has refined so far, although Qingfeng has long been clear about the materials and steps for refining the Combined Pill, and has demonstrated it countless times in his heart, but when it came time to start refining, Qingfeng was still a little more nervous.
It was not easy to suppress the tension, Qingfeng calmed down, and began to refine the first Combined Pill. Qingfeng casually sacrificed the nameless medicine tripod, enlarged the medicine tripod to its normal form, and then placed it in front of him about a zhang or so.
Then the left hand pinched the trick, stimulated the Dan fire in the body, and injected it into the nameless medicine tripod in front, with the heating of the Dan fire, Qingfeng took a elixir in his right hand, squeezed the juice with the unique technique of the Dan Master, and then extracted the essence of the elixir, and then put all the essence of the elixir into the nameless medicine tripod in front of him.
The free right hand did not pause at all, and then took out another material on the other side, pressed that material into powder with alchemy techniques, and waited for the elixir essence in the nameless medicine tripod to be heated to a certain extent, and the material powder in his hand was added at the right time.
Then the left hand of the pinching trick was lightly touched towards the nameless medicine tripod, and the medicine tripod began to vibrate according to a certain law, and the medicine liquid and powder inside were immediately fully mixed and reacted. And the right hand did not stop, and took another herb and began to process.
Thousands of materials are piled up around Qingfeng, if an ordinary person can't tell the shape and location of each material, even these thousands of names may not be able to remember. But for Qingfeng, who was already in the late stage of distraction, this was not a thing. Qingfeng not only knows the location, shape, medicinal properties, and quantity of each herb in the thousands of materials around him, but also knows the processing method of these thousands of materials, the order of addition, the heat, the degree of reaction, etc., and even the characteristics, precautions, and mutual restraint of all the medicinal materials.
With the passage of time, all kinds of materials were added to the medicine tripod by Qingfeng in order, and Qingfeng's movements were skillful and elegant, and there was no trace of rustiness and sluggishness, as if the elixir Qingfeng inside had been refined countless times.
This is because Qing Feng has made sufficient preparations in advance, and the procedure steps of the Fusion Pill refining, Qing Feng has already demonstrated countless times in his heart, focusing on the places that are prone to problems and referring to them, so he can be so proficient.
Before you know it, five days have passed, and at least seven or eight out of ten of the thousands of materials on the ground have been used by Qingfeng. As the materials were added one by one, Qingfeng's originally plain expression became a little tangled, the operation of the medicine pod in front of him was no longer as smooth as before, and the technique of refining the pill was completely lacking the skill of the first day.
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound from the nameless medicine pod, and Qingfeng's face changed, and then he showed a look of helplessness. The refining failed, Qing Feng had long known that refining the Combined Body Pill was not so simple, but this was the first time that it failed without even adding the materials, it was still a bit unexpected to him, what was the problem? Qing Feng frowned.
Grabbing the medicine pod in front of him with one hand, Qingfeng took out the medicine residue inside, put it in the palm of his hand and smelled it, and then carefully picked it up, as if he wanted to find out the problem from it. I don't know how long it took, and I don't know how many times the problem passed in Qingfeng's mind, Qingfeng finally found a clue from it, and then he cleaned up the medicine tripod and prepared to have a try.
Maybe it's really difficult to refine the combined pill, I tried six times in a row, all of them failed, from Qingfeng learning alchemy to now, there has never been such a situation, Qingfeng, who has always been calm, is also a little impatient.
Is it so difficult to refine the Combined Pill? Qingfeng seemed to be a little unconvinced, and after summarizing the reasons for the failure last time, he threw himself into refining again. Under such a mentality, the result can be imagined, and the sixth time failed again.
Cross-level alchemy is really not an easy task, another failure finally made Qingfeng calm down, it is not a good thing to go on like this, Qingfeng decided to stop alchemy for the time being, first adjust his mentality, and then familiarize himself with the experience and experience of refining the combined pill left by Master Baicao Zhenren.
The previous six refining Qingfeng took more than a month, and now that I calmed down and studied, Qingfeng used up more than a month, and this delay, nearly three months passed. However, Qingfeng is not in a hurry at all, he knows that sharpening the knife is not a mistake for chopping wood, only in this way can he maximize his Dan technique, if he does not seek to understand and is in a hurry, even if there are more materials, it is not enough to waste himself.
After some adjustments, Qingfeng finally found out the crux of the problem, and in the seventh refining, he refined a combined pill in one go. Although the quality of this pill is slightly poor, it can only be barely regarded as a low-grade combined pill, but for Qingfeng, success also means that he has found the right way, and there will be more and more success in the future.
If you fail, you should sum up the lessons and avoid making the same mistake next time, and if you succeed, you should sum up the experience, know why you succeeded, and strive for more success in the future. Qingfeng adjusted for a few more days, familiarizing himself with this successful case countless times, and then continued to refine the elixir.
After that, things went much smoother, more than 20 materials, Qingfeng spent four and a half months to use them all up, plus the previous attempt, these 30 materials, Qingfeng refined a total of seven combined pills. These seven are all low-grade combined pills, but two of them are of slightly higher quality, which is close to the evaluation of medium-grade pills, and one is of slightly lower quality, which can only be barely regarded as low-grade pills.
