Chapter 177: Alchemy
Day 9.
For nine days, Tianyao Huiling Pill has been smooth with Leng Yun's investment of all his money. However, as time goes by, the difficulty is getting higher and higher. Fortunately, Tianyao Huiling Pill is mainly used to refine medicine in the early stage, and there is no other major move. This is why Leng Yun is confident that he can stick to the last step. However, according to the records in the pill recipe, the most difficult process will be faced after investing the last medicine, namely the Huiling Fruit, and this process is a total of 360 catalytic bans.
Some people have said that thirty percent of the medicinal properties come from raw materials, that is, the materials used, while the other 70 percent and the characteristics of each elixir come from catalytic prohibitions. However, the restriction is like the difference between water and salted rice. Therefore, for an alchemist, the most important thing is to be familiar with the techniques, which is also the most difficult thing for a new method alchemist today, because the true essence of the new method can never be perfect in the restriction techniques, especially in the nature of the true essence. Although it seems to be similar to the ancient method, it is just a little different. Some prohibitions and even new method monks cannot use them at all.
The 198th flavor, snake saliva fruit.
The 199th flavor, licorice.
As time goes by, the refining of Tianyao Huiling Pill finally reached the last moment. For a moment, when Leng Yun picked up a Huiling Fruit that had been placed beside him, his heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate.
At this time, when the licorice, which was the 199th flavor, was put into the alchemy cauldron, the medicine liquid in the alchemy that was constantly rotating immediately turned into a fire-like red. Then, as time passed, the red became more and more charming, and finally even had a strange golden color in the red.
Red cremation turns into gold, a sign of the great success of medicine liquid.
When he saw a ray of gold appearing in the fiery red medicine liquid, Leng Yun couldn't help but see a sentence recorded in the pill recipe. The situation in front of him was obviously just in line with the red cremation gold mentioned in the pill recipe. However, Leng Yun was not sure, because no one could tell whether the pill recipe had his own language habits. Perhaps his gold transformation refers to the fact that all the medicine liquids in the pill tripod turned golden.
However, at this time, Leng Yun's face was already pale and obviously couldn't hold on for long. After all, no matter how good the spirit stone is, it cannot sleep. When it comes to physical strength and rest, even if Leng Yun has been in a state as much as possible, Leng Yun's current cultivation level can be said to have reached the extreme.
"No matter what, that's it."
The first time, the pill recipe is to refine a new spiritual pill, which is like gambling. The first is that the person who wrote down the pill recipe is not wrong, or that he did not use a cryptic word that only he or his disciples can understand. The second is that he has no mistake in his understanding, but this is somewhat based on luck, because many of the pill recipes can have several understandings, just like the previous sentence of red cremation gold. You can understand that gold appears in the fiery red medicine liquid, or it can be understood as the fiery red medicine liquid turns golden.
Therefore, how to choose not only tests the knowledge and experience of the alchemist, but also tests the luck of the alchemist. After all, no one knows what level is just enough to reach the fire. This is also the reason why every alchemist, even if he refines the same elixir, uses the same elixir recipe.
With gritted his teeth, Leng Yun directly threw the Huiling Fruit into the medicine liquid that was already like fire. As the Huiling Fruit entered, the originally fiery red medicine liquid immediately turned into a faint green color. Leng Yun did not care too much about this change, because at this time, all his energy was used between his fingers.
The technique of alchemy is actually similar to that of controlling magic arrays or magic weapons. The technique, also known as handprints, was originally a compulsory course for monks. It was just a magic or practice. Sometimes it was necessary to use handprints. Among them, especially array layout, alchemy, weapon refining, and other miscellaneous studies, handprints are even more indispensable.
At this time, as Leng Yun's handprints changed one after another, Leng Yun's hands rushed out from time to time, and from time to time, he rushed out of various colors and sank into the alchemy tripod. As Leng Yun's handprints changed, whether it was the alchemy tripod or the medicine liquid in the alchemy tripod, a wonderful change began.
Especially the Xuanyin Stone Cauldron, it emitted a biting coldness directly outward, but the medicine liquid in the cauldron began to slowly transfer from the previous faint green color to the original fiery red red. In addition, a ball of fiery red elixir clouds began to spread above the mouth of the cauldron.
With the emergence of this ball of elixir cloud, Leng Yun couldn't help but feel a hint of joy in his heart. At least this shows that until now, he has not been wrong in refining the Tian Yao Hui Ling Pill, because if it is wrong, it may form a elixir, but it will never be so rich, because the elixir is an intuitive manifestation of the elixir's properties when refining elixirs, and it is even the essence of the elixir.
However, although Danyun made Leng Yun happy, the next 360 catalytic techniques began to make Leng Yun complain, especially after the number reached 100 hands, the true energy that had been consumed after nine days and nine nights was already gone, and the true energy consumed by these 360 techniques was one of the best. Although there were a large number of top-grade spirit stones around him, even if there were top-grade spirit stones and pills to supplement, the replenishment speed could not keep up with the consumption.
For a moment, Leng Yun's eyes couldn't help but sweep at the top-grade spirit stone that was placed at the touch of his right hand. To be honest, Leng Yun originally placed this top-grade spirit stone just to ensure that the material would not be wasted before all 200 medicines were included in the cauldron. However, with the support of a large number of top-grade spirit stones, especially with the support of Xuanyin Zhensha's Qi Transformation Pill, the top-grade spirit stone and the recovery pill had already resolved his worries, so Leng Yun was a little confused about whether to use this top-grade spirit stone.
Of course, the best spirit stones can be used repeatedly, Leng Yun is very clear about this. However, under normal circumstances, no one will do this in the best spirit stone, because the biggest use of the best spirit stone is to help transform babies. When transforming babies, only people have never thought that there is insufficient spiritual energy, and never thought that there is too much spiritual energy. Therefore, ordinary top spirit stones will not be used before, because once the best spirit stone has been absorbed, it is like a dam opening. Even if the spiritual energy in the spirit stone is no longer actively absorbed in the future, it will begin to evaporate slowly. This is also the best way to distinguish the best spirit stone. If anyone has been used, you can tell at a glance.
After glanced at the top-grade spirit stone, although Leng Yun did not stop, he was thinking in his heart. To be honest, even with the help of this top-grade spirit stone, Leng Yun was not sure about completing the catalytic ban of a total of 360 hands, because according to the current increase ratio, when it reaches 200 hands, it is not enough for him, a cultivator of the Qi Transformation Stage, to satisfy him. This is like Leng Yun’s current true energy is just a bottle, and when he needs a jar of water at a time, his bottle will naturally not be satisfied no matter what.
Thinking of this, Leng Yun could only grit his teeth and give up the unrealistic fantasy in his heart. Although the catalytic ban on dozens of hands increased the medicinal properties, as long as the last step failed, there would be no big change in the number of hands and the number of hands less. In short, it was just a waste pill.
As time goes by, the time between catalytic techniques begins to get longer and longer. In this regard, this should be a very beneficial thing for alchemists, but it is not very helpful to Leng Yun at this time, because his replenishment speed can no longer keep up.
When the technique reached ninety-six, the true energy in Leng Yun's body was emptied at the moment when the catalytic ban was completed. For a moment, Leng Yun even felt his entire dantian tremble, so when the ban was completed, Leng Yun felt a little fear. If it weren't for his true energy, but just a little short of it, he might have become the first alchemist to be fucked by a human being while refining alchemy.
In fact, full-load alchemy like Leng Yun has always been a taboo for alchemists. However, Master Jinshe did not have time to tell Leng Yun about these taboos of alchemy. Leng Yun has always been refining elixirs alone, and the elixirs he refined are within his ability, so he has never noticed them.
Faced with this situation, Leng Yun knew that he could not hold on anymore. After swallowing a recovery pill, Leng Yun grabbed another water-based top-grade spirit stone, absorbed some of the spiritual energy and began to collect the pill.
There are also great things for alchemists to collect pills, because collecting pills not only refers to condensing the medicine juice in the cauldron into pills, but also re-entering all the medicinal properties, including the elixir above the mouth of the cauldron, which is also the most important thing for an alchemist to refine pills, especially the elixir. If the elixir is not collected well, it will not only greatly affect the medicinal properties of the elixir, but it will not even be able to become a elixir at all.
The medicine that is not the Dan Pill is called a potion, not a spiritual pill! So the quality of the alchemy determines everything, and this is not a test of the true essence of the alchemist or the inheritance of the alchemist. It is mainly the alchemist's own understanding of the elixir, especially the spiritual pill he wants to collect.
It can be said that you have the ability to refine the waste pill. When ordinary alchemists are beginners, they are not even able to become the pill, let alone the waste pill.
As the medicine juice in the cauldron slowly condensed, Leng Yun's heart began to rise. If the pill failed, then what he was wasting was not the previous auxiliary medicines and prescriptions. It would be better to feed the Huiling Fruit directly.
As time goes by, of course, Leng Yun's hands have not stopped at all during this period. However, Leng Yun's true energy, which had recovered a little, was once again facing the dilemma of exhaustion and dryness. For a moment, Leng Yun couldn't help but feel a little impatient in his heart.
However, the medicine liquid of the Xuanyin Stone Cauldron seemed to be carried with Leng Yun. Not only did the medicine liquid in the cauldron condense slowly, but even the stone tripod that had been rotating stably seemed to have reversed the tune with Leng Yun, becoming much more obvious. The most important thing about the Tianyao Hui Lingdan is that the medicine cauldron must rotate continuously, because there are many extremely difficult things in the two hundred flavor materials, and the Tianyao Hui Lingdan uses the rotation of the alchemy to stimulate the fusion of medicine between different medicine juices.
For a moment, Leng Yun's face, which had been pale because of the endless sleep of nine days and nine nights, immediately turned a little whiter, and even a large amount of blood appeared in his eyes.
You cannot use all your strength to refine alchemy. This is what every alchemist will remind your disciples, because no one is sure whether this kind of accident will occur when collecting alchemy. Obviously, Leng Yun faced this kind of accident, which is something Leng Yun had never encountered before.
As time passed by little by little, the speed of the Xuanyin Stone Cauldron slowed down little by little. Not to mention the Tian Yao Huiling Pill in the cauldron, it had stopped.
In fact, the more advanced the spiritual elixir, the less easy it is to transform the elixir, especially the spiritual elixir with many materials but very few elixirs.
Take this Tian Yaohui Ling Pill for example. The largest of the two hundred flavors is several pounds. Although the impurities in the materials have been melted through nine days and nine nights and condensation, even so, the two hundred flavors have a sufficient amount of sea bowls left. It goes without saying that it is difficult to condense these sea bowls of medicinal juice into a spirit pill about the size of a fist. Although Leng Yun had also been concerned before, he obviously did not expect that it would be so big. After all, the largest elixir he has refined over the years is just the size of a fingernail, and it is also of quantity.
Naturally, the spiritual pills that are worn by humans cannot be compared with monsters. The monsters have a big mouth, and more importantly, the spiritual pill of Tian Yaohui can only become one pill.
At this time, Leng Yun could be said to be crying but not crying. With the seal technique of the elixir, he could not stop just by wanting to stop. Moreover, even if he could stop, the higher the level of the elixir, the greater the backlash power, the higher the level of the elixir. With the level of the Tianyao Hui Lingdan, the backlash power was enough to make Leng Yun die hundreds of times.
Leng Yun's eyes couldn't help but fall to the top-grade spirit stones beside him. In today's situation, dead horses may be treated as live no matter how hard they are. If their lives are gone, what's the use of leaving behind more top-grade spirit stones?
In fact, at this time, even if there is a top-grade spirit stone, Leng Yun was not sure. After all, top-grade spirit stones are not immortal pills. Although the spiritual energy of the top-grade spirit stone is pure enough, it still takes time to convert it into true energy. In the current situation, Leng Yun was not sure whether the top-grade spirit stone could be supplemented.
Just when Leng Yun wanted to reach out to pick up the top-quality spirit stone at hand, Leng Yun suddenly felt a pure Xuanshui true energy appearing in his dantian. If Leng Yun hadn't been confident that he had felt that he was not wrong before, and at this time it was not an illusion, Leng Yun would almost think that he was dreaming at this time.
However, just as Leng Yun felt the mysterious water true energy, Leng Yun couldn't help but think of the strange bronze lamp.
Due to cultivation, Leng Yun’s Dantian doesn’t have many things. In addition to the ghost tooth splitting spur and the Xuanyin Stone Cauldron in front of him, there are only the thousand-year-old tortoise shell and the disobedient and strange bronze lamp left. And everything in front of him is obviously the only one that may come from the bronze lamp that he still doesn’t understand until now.
However, at this time, Leng Yun did not delve into this matter. Although the mysterious Xuanshui True Yuan that was willing to come out seemed to be much purer than he had before, especially the warm and cool feeling, which would never exist in Leng Yun's previous true energy, but this point is exactly the same as the description in the book Xuanshui True Sha.
