Chapter 354: Difficulty in refining alchemy

Lin Haoming returned to the sect and went to the market to buy the most common alchemy materials. He did not see anyone again and went back to the cave.
Lin Haoming had already prepared for alchemy in the morning. Lin Haoming had read the "Cold Flame Pill Sutra" many times. Of course, before practicing cold flames, Lin Haoming still needed to refine pills with ordinary techniques. After all, this is the foundation of everything. Only after laying a good foundation can one study higher alchemy techniques.
Basic alchemy techniques are not a secret. Such classics are for sale in the market. When Lin Haoming participated in the trial of the Secret Realm of the Demon Valley, some of the people who were killed could refine pills, and even got several magic weapon-level alchemy furnaces, one of which was the best magic weapon-level alchemy furnace.
Although Lin Haoming had obtained a magic weapon pill furnace engraved with spiritual patterns before, the level of the pill furnace was too high. Although the success rate of refining pills was higher, the requirements for mana and spiritual consciousness were also high. Lin Haoming is now just a first trial of pills. If he used that pill furnace, he might be able to finish the refining of the furnace and he would have to take a rest.
Therefore, the magic weapon and alchemy furnace is the most edible for Lin Haoming. The best magic weapon and alchemy furnace not only have the effect of stabilizing flames when refining elixirs, but also consume less magic power and spiritual consciousness, which is the most suitable one.
Because Lin Haoming refined elixirs for the first time, he started with the simplest elixirs, and the easiest elixirs to be refined is considered a fasting pill.
The main material of this elixir is Polygonatum that has been more than a hundred years old. Polygonatum is often used as a medicinal material among mortals. It is rare for more than 20 or 30 years. However, if you sow seeds at random, you can grow a large piece of it by sowing the seeds. So although it sounds like a hundred years is long, in fact, this thing is too easy to plant and its value is not high.
Lin Haoming can buy a hundred kilograms of Polygonatum with one piece of spirit stone. This time he spent ten spirit stones to refine all of these thousand kilograms of Polygonatum into a fasting pill.
The basic steps for refining elixirs are also simple. First, naturally, heat the elixir furnace. After reaching a certain temperature, throw in the material, melt the material, remove the impurities inside, and finally use the remaining medicine liquid at a suitable time to condense it into elixirs.
Lin Haoming began to practice step by step according to what was described in the alchemy scriptures.
The first time, the temperature of the elixir furnace was too high, and three kilograms of Polygonatum were thrown in and turned into flying ashes.
The second time, the temperature was still high. Although it did not turn into ashes immediately, it also turned into coke, which was naturally useless again.
The third time, the temperature was too low, but the melting into the medicine was not done well, and the impurities were not removed at all, and it was scrapped again.
After trying this for seven or eight times, I finally found the right temperature. After finding the right temperature, it went very smoothly. After all, Lin Haoming's spiritual consciousness was particularly powerful. He mainly used his spiritual consciousness to capture the impurities in the medicine liquid. However, when the condensed liquid became a pill, there was another problem.
Perhaps Lin Haoming took action himself slowly. When the pill was formed, Lin Haoming found that there were three pills, but each pill was a little black and obviously a little burnt.
The second time, after getting familiar with the temperature, it was soon time to turn the condensate into a elixir. This time, Lin Haoming deliberately advanced a little and finally refined the elixir. However, after taking out the elixir, he felt a little soft. According to the records in the classics, this was caused by the condensate into a elixir a little earlier, but it should be considered a barely successful, but the effect was not good.
Looking at the three soft pills, Lin Haoming smelled them and felt that the taste seemed pretty good. After thinking about it, he took one, and a feeling of fullness immediately appeared. However, Lin Haoming frowned slightly because he felt that there seemed to be more impurities in the pill.
These impurities were not removed completely when the material was turned into a medicine liquid before, but when the condensation was made into a pill, due to timing and techniques, some medicine liquids were not condensed thoroughly, and thus converted into impurities. In fact, this is how the impurities in most elixirs come from.
There are so many impurities in this kind of fasting pill, and after eating it, it will definitely take some time to excrete it. For low-level disciples, the time will not be short, so I am afraid that this thing will not be used by ordinary people, ordinary monks will not eat this fasting pill without any trouble.
Thinking of this, Lin Haoming was also a little amused. The first time he forced himself to be considered a successful pill, which was actually like this.
After careful calculation, I have already refined the ten furnaces of fasting pills, so I barely succeeded. As expected, the alchemist is really not that easy to be a pill master.
This fasting pill only pays attention to the material of Polygonatum. If there are many types of other elixirs, then you need to pay attention to the temperature of each material being turned into a medicine liquid and constantly mediate. The time for each material to be thrown into the elixir furnace needs to be controlled. Otherwise, as long as there is an error in one step, it will fail. If so many conditions are added together, unless countless tests are passed, it is not so easy to refine a elixir in a mature manner.
I tried to refine the fasting pill again. This time, when the furnace was opened, three yellow pills were quietly lying in the furnace.
Lin Haoming grabbed one of them and was surprised to find that this pill was not only more rounder than the other two, but also seemed to contain stronger spiritual energy. He immediately understood that this fasting pill should have reached the middle level.
He officially refined a furnace of fasting pills, and there was actually a medium-grade pill in it. This greatly increased Lin Haoming, who had just felt that it was difficult to refine the pills.
Looking at this pill, Lin Haoming wanted to try the effect, but before taking a bad fasting pill, his belly was still full, so his mind moved and he immediately thought of someone.
After Lin Haoming summoned, Wen Yu walked in from outside in a few breaths.
This alchemy room was prohibited by Lin Haoming before, so Wen Yu felt a little different when he heard Lin Haoming ask him to come here. After coming in, he smelled the faint fragrance of medicine and felt even more suspicious. What exactly is Lin Haoming going to do? Could it be that this guy finally got his brain and knew his own benefits?
"Master, what are you doing?" As he guessed in his mind, Wen Yu still asked very well on the surface.
Lin Haoming threw a fasting pill directly to her.
After seeing this, Wen Yu was stunned at first and explained: "Master, although Wen Yu was sealed with magic power, it does not affect fasting!"
"I'll let you eat it. After you finish eating, talk about the effect of this fasting pill!" Lin Haoming explained to her without any good expression.
