Lin Haoming returned to the sect, went to the market to buy the most common alchemy materials, and returned directly to the cave without seeing anyone.
Lin Haoming had already made preparations for elixir refining early in the morning. Lin Haoming had read the "Cold Flame Alchemy Sutra" many times. Of course, before practicing the cold flame, Lin Haoming still needed to use ordinary techniques to refine the elixir. After all, this
It is the foundation of everything. Only after laying a good foundation can we delve into higher alchemy.
Basic alchemy techniques are not a secret. Such books are sold in the market. When Lin Haoming participated in the trial in the secret realm of Fallen Demon Valley, some of the people he killed were able to refine elixirs, and even
I got several magic weapon-level alchemy furnaces, one of which was a top-grade magic weapon.
Although Lin Haoming had previously obtained a magical elixir furnace engraved with spiritual patterns, the grade of the elixir furnace was too high. Although the success rate of refining elixirs was higher, the requirements for mana and spiritual consciousness were also high. Now Lin Haoming is just trying out elixir refining for the first time.
If you use the alchemy furnace, I'm afraid that after refining it in one furnace, you will have to eat it and have to rest.
Therefore, the magic weapon alchemy furnace is still the most edible to Lin Haoming. The top-quality magic weapon pill furnace not only stabilizes the flame when refining the medicine, but also consumes less mana and spiritual consciousness.
It is the most suitable.
Because it was Lin Haoming's first time refining an elixir, he, like other monks who were refining elixirs for the first time, started with the simplest elixir, and the easiest elixir to refine was the Bigu Pill.
The main ingredient of this elixir is Polygonatum japonica, which is more than a century old. Polygonatum odorata is also commonly used as a medicinal material among mortals, but it is rare that it is more than 20 or 30 years old. However, in a place with sufficient spiritual energy, just sow the seeds and a large area will grow.
So although a hundred years sounds like a long time, in fact it is too easy to grow and its value is not high.
Lin Haoming can buy a hundred kilograms of century-old Huangjing with one spiritual stone. This time he spent ten spiritual stones to refine all the thousand kilograms of Huangjing into Bigu Pill.
The basic steps for refining elixirs are also simple. First, of course, heat the elixir furnace. After reaching a certain temperature, throw the materials into it. Then melt the materials, remove the impurities inside, and finally mix the remaining liquid medicine at a suitable time.
Use appropriate techniques to condense them into elixirs.
Lin Haoming started practicing step by step according to the description in the alchemy classics.
The first time, the temperature of the alchemy furnace was too high, and three kilograms of Huangjing were thrown in and turned into fly ash.
The second time, the temperature was still high. Although it did not turn into fly ash immediately, it turned into coke, so it was naturally useless again.
The third time, the temperature was too low. As a result, the liquid was not melted properly, and impurities could not be removed at all. It was scrapped again.
After trying this seven or eight times, I finally succeeded in finding the right temperature. After finding the right temperature, the next step was extremely smooth. After all, Lin Haoming's spiritual consciousness was extremely powerful. To remove impurities, he mainly relied on his spiritual consciousness to capture the liquid.
However, when the liquid was condensed into elixir, problems appeared again.
Perhaps Lin Haoming was too slow to act. After the elixir was formed, he opened the furnace. Lin Haoming found that the elixir had become three pieces, but each one was a little black, obviously a little burnt.
The second time, after getting familiar with the temperature, it soon came time to condense the liquid into elixir. This time, Lin Haoming deliberately made it a little earlier and finally refined the elixir. However, after taking out the elixir, he felt a little weak.
According to the records in the classics, this was caused by the condensation of liquid into elixir a little early, but it should be regarded as barely successful, but the effect was not good.
Looking at the three soft pills, Lin Haoming smelled them and felt that they tasted pretty good. After thinking about it, he ate one. A feeling of fullness immediately appeared, but Lin Haoming frowned slightly.
, because he felt that there seemed to be a few more impurities in the elixir.
It is not that these impurities were not removed when the materials were converted into liquid medicine, but when the liquid was condensed into elixirs, due to timing and technique issues, some liquids were not completely condensed and thus transformed into impurities. In fact, most elixirs
Impurities in medicine also come from this.
There are so many impurities in such a Bigu Pill. After eating it, it will definitely take some time to get rid of it. For low-level disciples, this time will not be short, so I am afraid that besides ordinary people, this thing will not be used by ordinary monks.
It’s okay to eat this Bigu Pill.
Thinking of this, Lin Haoming was a little bit dumbfounded. The elixir that he had barely succeeded in for the first time would actually turn out like this.
After careful calculation, I found that I had already refined ten furnaces of Bigu Pills, and I just barely succeeded. As expected, it turns out that being an alchemist is not that easy.
This bigu pill only pays attention to the material of Polygonatum. If other pills have many types of materials, then you need to pay attention to the temperature at which each material turns into liquid medicine, and constantly adjust it. Also, the time when each material is thrown into the pill furnace is also
It needs to be well controlled, otherwise as long as there is a mistake in one step, it will fail. With so many conditions put together, it is really not that easy to maturely refine an elixir unless it goes through countless experiments.
Another attempt was made to refine the Bigu Pill. This time, when the furnace was turned on, three yellow pills lay quietly in the furnace.
Lin Haoming grabbed one of them and was a little surprised to find that this pill was not only more rounded than the other two, but also seemed to contain stronger spiritual energy. He suddenly understood that this Bigu Pill should have reached the level of mid-grade.
.
He officially refined a furnace of bigu pills, and there was actually a middle-grade pill in it. This made Lin Haoming, who just thought it was not easy to make pills, greatly increased his confidence.
Looking at this pill, Lin Haoming wanted to try the effect, but he had eaten a bad Bigu Pill before, and his stomach was still full, so his mind moved and he immediately thought of a person.
After Wen Yu was summoned by Lin Haoming, she walked in from outside within a few breaths.
Lin Haoming had forbidden herself to enter this alchemy room before, so when Wen Yu heard Lin Haoming calling her to come here, she also felt something different. After entering, she smelled the faint fragrance of medicine and became even more suspicious. What on earth is Lin Haoming going to do? Could it be that
Is this guy finally enlightened and aware of his own benefits?
"Master, is there anything I need Wen Yu to do?" He was guessing in his mind, but on the surface Wen Yu still asked in a very obedient manner.
Lin Haoming directly threw a Bigu Pill to her.
After Wen Yu saw it, he was stunned for a moment and then explained: "Master, although Wen Yu's magic power is blocked, it does not affect the ability to live without a grain!"
"I'll let you eat it. After you finish eating, let's talk about the effects of this Bigu Pill!" Lin Haoming explained to her without any good looks.
When Wen Yu heard this, he felt a chill in his heart. At the same time, he also realized that damn Lin Haoming had asked him to come here because he wanted to test the medicine. (To be continued.)
