Chapter 104: Alchemy (3)
Although Wang Qingshan believed that Ishikawa would definitely not succeed in refining spiritual pills, and doing so was a waste of spiritual herbs, he did not say it. After all, his spiritual herbs were also provided by Ishikawa.
"If fellow Taoist wants to refine elixirs, you can face me. In this way, we can both use earth fire and will not interfere with each other." Wang Qingshan was worried that when Ishikawa was refining elixirs, he deliberately let Ishikawa be on the opposite side of him at a longer distance.
As long as the earth fire was able to use, Ishikawa didn't care about these things. With a wave of his hand, Ishikawa's alchemy tripod was shot onto the earth fire. In an instant, the entire alchemy tripod began to shake, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a red color, and a trace of inexplicable gap was vaguely revealed.
Wang Qingshan thought to himself: "This alchemy tripod is actually worse than I thought. He can't bear such a strong earth fire. In this way, let alone refining elixirs, I'm afraid the first step will not be completed."
Seeing this, Ishikawa knew in his heart that the earth fire was so rich that the alchemy tripod seemed to be unable to bear too much. He quickly cast out a spiritual power to wrap the alchemy tripod. In this way, the alchemy tripod no longer fully bears the power of the earth fire. At this time, the alchemy tripod was slightly relieved.
However, compared with Wang Qingshan's alchemy tripod, there is a world of difference, especially when the two alchemy tripods are arranged side by side, it is even more obvious.
The divine alchemy cauldron that has been passed down for generations is much better than these ordinary blue and white objects.
The first step in refining spiritual pills is to open a cauldron and add low-level spiritual herbs. The two of them do it almost at the same time. The order of adding spiritual herbs is roughly the same. However, the years of the spiritual herbs used by Ishikawa are longer.
These low-level spiritual herbs are really difficult to find in the fairy palace with too low age.
"This monk has also learned it very well. It seems that he has some basic skills in elixir!" Wang Qingshan looked at him with a hint of praise. Just observing his own elixir to refine elixirs, he could imitate this level. It is indeed not something that ordinary people can do.
After adding all the spiritual herbs into the alchemy tripod, Wang Qingshan breathed a sigh of relief. With the existence of this divine alchemy tripod, Wang Qingshan could relax for a moment.
This process is enough to rely entirely on the Divine Pill Cauldron and Earth Fire spiritual power.
Looking at Ishikawa again, he looked nervous. Ishikawa not only had to use spiritual power to maintain the normal operation of the alchemy tripod, but also had to manipulate the spiritual power of the earth fire to prevent the spiritual grass from being burned by the spiritual power of the earth fire.
A moment later, a trace of medicine fragrance came from the two of them.
With Ishikawa's strength, Wang Qingshan did not surprise him too much, but he spent so much spiritual power to maintain the operation of the alchemy tripod, and I am afraid that it would not last long.
Refining spiritual pills takes a lot of time.
Soon, the refining of the spiritual pill entered the second extremely critical stage, and Wang Qingshan had no time to think about it anymore. He took out the metal five spirit herbs and the earth-attribute five spirit herbs from his hands and added them all.
After all, I have the experience of refining the spiritual pill last time, so this time it went very smoothly.
Just completed the fusion of two Five Spiritual Herbs. Wang Qingshan was stunned by the scene he caught sight at the corner of his eyes.
Ishikawa actually took out three five spirit herbs, one fire-attributed five spirit herbs, one earth-attributed five spirit herbs, and one wood-attributed five spirit herbs, and then directly put it into the alchemy tripod and carefully refined it.
You should know that using two types of five spirit herbs to refine spiritual elixirs is only 30% of the elixir rate. If there are three types of five spirit herbs, the elixir rate may be only 10%.
Even Wang Qingshan dared not add three types of five spirit herbs at the same time. Two types of five spirit herbs are already his limit.
In Wang Qingshan's eyes, Ishikawa did this but didn't want to successfully refine the alchemy.
Wang Qingshan said in his heart: "Although this person has a much higher cultivation than himself and has a large number of spiritual herbs in his hand, he didn't expect that he was so arrogant. He used three five spiritual herbs for the first time to refine the pills. It seems that this person should be a disciple of a big family, holding the spiritual herbs passed down from his ancestors and squandering so casually."
Ishikawa naturally didn't know what Wang Qingshan was thinking. For Ishikawa, his success rate of alchemy was almost 100%, and he had almost never failed in the past elixir refining. This has a huge relationship with Ishikawa's extensive elixir refining and countless failures in his early years.
In addition, Ishikawa's cultivation is also strong enough. Compared with ordinary god-level alchemists, Ishikawa's spiritual power is stronger, and he can also use divine power to make more subtle observations, and he has a very high grasp of alchemy.
Therefore, although Ishikawa is a god-level alchemist, he is by no means comparable to an ordinary god-level alchemist.
In addition, Ishikawa is indeed not 100% sure to refine spiritual pills in one go, but Ishikawa also knows that refining spiritual pills takes a lot of time. If you first refine spiritual pills with earth attributes and then refine others, it is too cumbersome. Ishikawa simply directly refines spiritual pills that all three kinds of five spirit herbs. Even if the first time fails, Ishikawa can learn from them and prepare for the next time to refine spiritual pills.
Ishikawa carefully fused the spiritual power of the three spiritual herbs together, and then slowly controlled the spiritual power of the earth fire according to the previous method.
One day, two days...
Time passed day by day. Although Ishikawa and Wang Qingshan faced each other and could see each other's every move clearly, they did not communicate at all. Therefore, both of them knew that this lonely period of elixir was extremely important and there could be no mistakes.
And as time goes by, it is becoming increasingly impossible to fail.
After more than a month, Wang Qingshan's face turned pale. After the first pill refining, he did not rest much, so he immediately devoted himself to the second pill refining. Therefore, his spiritual power was consumed greatly and it was revealed at this moment.
However, Wang Qingshan had no good idea, so he could only grit his teeth and persevere.
But Wang Qingshan was not favored by Ishikawa, but he was still motionless. It seemed that there was no pressure in terms of spiritual power, which surprised Wang Qingshan. Ishikawa used such an ordinary alchemy, which took a lot of time to maintain the comfort of the alchemy, and the spiritual power that should be consumed is more.
"Although this person's spiritual power is stronger than me, it consumes much more than me after all. Since he can persist, I can definitely persist." Wang Qingshan secretly cheered himself up in his heart.
In a blink of an eye, it was two months later.
At this moment, the entire stone hall was filled with the fragrance of medicine. The rich fragrance of medicine came from the two alchemy cauldrons, but the two aromas of medicine were slightly different. After all, the materials used for the two elixirs were different.
Although Wang Qingshan looked tired, he was extremely happy. This time, he refined the spiritual pill and there was no accident. As long as he persisted for a few more days, he could open the cauldron to get the pill.
Wang Qingshan was also very surprised that Ishikawa was able to achieve this step. However, whether Ishikawa became a elixir is of little significance to Wang Qingshan. The two are just a cooperative relationship.
Wang Qingshan carefully paid attention to the furnace and cauldron, and did not dare to blink. He had been waiting for this for a long time.
If he can successfully become a pill, his wish for thousands of years will finally be fulfilled.
At this point, a slight burst sound suddenly came.
"It's broken, it's broken!" Wang Qingshan sighed softly in his heart: "Although this person's alchemy skills are not low, they lack a lot."
Breaking the pill is the damage suffered unexpectedly when refining pills. Many alchemists have experienced breaking the pills, and Wang Qingshan is no exception. Many monks attribute this to luck. In fact, this is definitely related to his own strength.
The sound of "Bang!Bang!Bang!" continued to sound.
"It's true that there is some distance from me!" Wang Qingshan heard this again, shook his head slightly, and was about to advise Ishikawa: If he turned a blind eye, there might be a possibility of breaking the elixir.
But suddenly, Wang Qingshan realized that the sound of the alchemy tripod seemed to be not from Ishikawa's alchemy tripod, but from his divine alchemy tripod.
And the sound is getting louder and louder.
"How is this possible?" Wang Qingshan calmed down and finally confirmed that there was indeed a problem in the Divine Pill Cauldron, and he did not discover it immediately.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Qingshan failed again at the moment when he was about to become a pill.
The 30% elixir rate is really too low.
Wang Qingshan looked decadent and stood there helplessly, looking extremely tired.
At this time, the fragrance of elixirs in the stone hall became more and more intense. Ishikawa was bathed in the fragrance of medicine, and a hint of timidity appeared on his face.
Over the years, Ishikawa has refined a lot of elixirs, but it is still too rare to be able to emit such a strange fragrance.
"Open!" Ishikawa shouted loudly, and the alchemy tripod turned around the earth fire spiritual power.
A moment later, the alchemy tripod was taken into my palm by Ishikawa.
As soon as it was opened, a stronger medicinal fragrance came to my face. In the alchemy cauldron, eight round spiritual pills formed a ball, and two spiritual pills emitted a black color, indicating that they were waste pills and had no use anymore.
"Dao... fellow Taoist has successfully refined it, and there are still as many as eight. This number is amazing." Wang Qingshan praised without hesitation.
Wang Qingshan was completely shocked by this scene. He originally thought that Ishikawa could not refine the pills at all, but unexpectedly, Ishikawa not only successfully refines it, but also in quantity, far beyond his imagination.
The 80% chance of becoming a pill was more like a loud slap, slapped hard on Wang Qingshan's face. He had always questioned what Ishikawa could do and whether he could successfully refine this spiritual pill.
Now, Ishikawa has not only refined it, but also refined it is a spiritual pill containing three kinds of spiritual herbs.
Wang Qingshan failed to refine a single pill and failed again.
Although he had experienced two failures, the persistence in Wang Qingshan's eyes did not fade away at this moment.
