Chapter 485: Refining the Immortal Pill [Please subscribe with a monthly ticket]
The selection of precious medicines and spiritual materials for alchemy is extremely particular.
For the same kind of elixir, there are at least a few varieties or as many as dozens of varieties, each with its own magical effects.
Some of the elixirs have slight conflicts with each other and are difficult to reconcile, which ultimately affects the quality of the elixir.
If you choose well, the alchemy can be made more smoothly and the elixir produced will be of higher quality.
This requires extremely high alchemy attainments.
Fire Dragon Alchemist is one of the masters, and the list of elixirs listed is extremely clever. Among them, many rare elixir varieties are used, which costs a lot more.
All told, it cost a full 250,000 jade coins.
It originally cost 350,000 jade coins, of which 100,000 jade coins were paid for by Long Jun.
According to Ying'er's wish, Long Jun was willing to give him all the remaining 250,000 jade coins.
However, after thinking about it, Chu Chen still refused. This was different from Long Jun’s support of one hundred thousand jade coins.
The "100,000 jade coins" funding is Long Jun's great support for the development of alchemy skills and the realization of the alchemist's dream of becoming an immortal.
After successfully practicing alchemy, he gave the Earth Dragon Alliance alchemy as a reward. This is a fair transaction between gentlemen.
Strictly speaking, this supply of medicinal materials was not for him to hone his alchemy skills, but for him to practice his magical powers as a swordsman.
He is not short of money right now and does not need to owe one more favor
Two days later.
The Earth Dragon Alliance sent the precious medicine and spiritual materials to the Fire Dragon Residence.
On the same day, Chu Chen asked for leave from the governor, Han Chen, and rushed to Fire Dragon Residence to refine elixirs.
Master Fire Dragon Pill Master was very considerate and handed over the [Nine Turns of Spiritual Sand Pill] to his apprentices, Sun Soul and Moon Soul, to refine it.
[Sword-Making Great Pill] is a type of external elixir.
If it is refined, it is very likely to cause thunder disaster, so the Fire Dragon Residence cannot stay any longer, and it will affect the Sun Soul and Moon Soul to refine the elixir.
The Fire Dragon Alchemist took Chu Chen to the hilltop near the Fire Dragon Residence, where he had a backup alchemy place.
This time the elixir was made, a lot of fine medicinal materials were used.
Therefore, the Fire Dragon Alchemist had no intention of testing Chu Chen, and took charge of the whole process personally, from the initial "preparation" to the preparation of spiritual materials, and he was quite dedicated.
It is no exaggeration to say that with the help of an alchemy master, even a dog can make elixirs.
Of course, except for the elixir and magic elixir.
The elixir and elixir are things that defy heaven and violate the rules of heaven and earth. If we do not use the method of offering sacrifices to the gods of heaven and earth, it will be difficult to achieve the elixir and elixir.
The True Immortal Chisongzi said: "Those who do not offer sacrifices will not be able to make medicine. Even if it is done, it will be useless to take it. It will not make people become immortals, nor will it prolong life or live forever."
The [Eight Stone Sword Pill] made by Chu Chen also needs to pay tribute to the "Eight Gods" and use the power of the Eight Gods to refine the Great Pill.
The so-called eight gods are the talisman, Soaring Snake, Taiyin, Liuhe, White Tiger, Xuanwu, Nine Earths, and Nine Heavens. They are the eight mysterious powers of heaven and earth. They are omnipresent and affect the occurrence and evolution of all things. They can herald auspiciousness, deduce the future, and contain hidden meanings.
Incredible power.
"The [Qingsong True Alchemy Furnace] presented by Lord Long is really good. Disciple Lingxiao, light some incense, put the medicine into the furnace, and recite the Guji Medicine Mantra."
After the fire dragon alchemist prepared all the medicines, he gave an order casually.
The so-called "Guji" refers to sealing the gas of the medicine in the furnace or cauldron from leaking out.
The elixirs and elixirs are difficult to refine and go against the natural evolution of heaven. Ordinary magic weapons cannot seal the energy of elixirs. Therefore, different elixirs and elixirs have their own ways of offering sacrifices to them, relying on the divine power of heaven and earth to consolidate the energy.
Chu Chen held the medicine in both hands, and when the incense was gone, he put all the medicine into the [Qingsong True Alchemy Furnace], closed the furnace, then pinched the magic formula with his hands, and silently recited:
"Eight stones of great medicine, I refine the eight gods. Protect the alchemy furnace and prevent evil from invading. I advise you not to indulge in indulgence. If there is any violation, beheading will not stop. Be as urgent as the law."
Following Chu Chen's finger, a spiritual light suddenly appeared on the alchemy furnace, and an inexplicable divine power surrounded the alchemy furnace.
"One sacrifice will be effective, my disciple. It seems that you have received the true message."
The Fire Dragon Alchemist praised him, and when he saw that the fire was almost done, he ordered:
"Invite the power of Yagami into the furnace."
When Chu Chen heard the words, he immediately followed them and recited a mantra:
"I am refining the elixir now, and I am patrolling this furnace. The eight gods follow me, and do not allow evil to invade. If you steal the elixir, behead it and destroy it. Protect my elixir furnace, and the emperor persuades me to refine it. Be as urgent as the law."
After the Jiao sacrifice, outside the alchemy room, a divine light fell from the sky and landed in the alchemy furnace.
For a time, the aura in the alchemy furnace was dazzling, and a majestic power filled it.
Refining elixirs and elixirs is extremely difficult, and it is common to refine them for several months.
The sage seized the will of creation and placed the sun and moon in his hand in the furnace. The spirits of heaven and earth rose up slightly, and there were clusters of yin and yang, ghosts and gods, and the sun, soul, moon and soul were like a consciousness.
Chu Chen's "Great Sword Forging Pill" also "takes over the fortunes of heaven and earth". Even if the Fire Dragon Pill Master takes action, it will take several months of hard work to refine it.
However, this time Chu Chen didn’t have to wait so long.
A few days ago, the elixir refined by Master Fire Dragon Alchemist came in handy.
Using waste elixirs to enlighten you can greatly shorten the elixir refining time and increase the chance of becoming an elixir.
Three days later.
"Apprentice, Hedan!"
The Fire Dragon Alchemist kept urging.
Without saying a word, Chu Chen thought about the Eight Gods, activated the [Liukjia Eight Gods Blue Dragon Sword] method, and silently recited the mantra:
"Pure and pure spirit, in harmony with the truth. Heaven's true Qi, rising and falling without stopping. The elixir of creation is made, transformed by the great elixir, to protect my immortality. I am as urgent as the law!"
Following Chu Chen's incantation, the [Qingsong True Alchemy Furnace] trembled violently, golden light spread out, and a strange medicinal fragrance came out from the alchemy furnace, which made people feel soothed.
"Master, is it done?"
Chu Chen was quite happy.
Fire Dragon Alchemist nodded slightly: "Not bad."
The Fire Dragon Alchemist has always been strict with his apprentices, but when he saw that his apprentice successfully combined the elixirs with his help, he was extremely satisfied and praised again and again:
"Disciple, you really have the talent for alchemy. You made the elixir together for the first time. Your senior brother Sunhun and senior sister Yuepo are more than a little bit behind you. Those two bastards are so troublesome."
Chu Chen smiled.
Poor Senior Brother Rihun and Senior Sister Yuepo were scolded every day.
He was able to combine the great elixirs so smoothly. Firstly, he understood the [Liukjia Eight Gods Blue Dragon Sword] in the Heart Temple and gained confidence in the [alchemy experience]. Secondly, thanks to the assistance of his master, Fire Dragon Alchemist, he was able to successfully combine the elixirs easily.
However, the success of combining elixirs does not mean that alchemy is over.
On the contrary, at this stage of refining the elixir, the really crucial step has not yet come.
Boom!
A muffled thunder exploded between heaven and earth.
Immediately afterwards, thunderclouds gathered above the alchemy place at a speed visible to the naked eye. The day suddenly darkened, strong winds blew, thunder roared, and the power of heaven was majestic!
Thunder is coming!
Chu Chen felt inexplicably nervous.
The last time the master's fifth-turn water elixir failed, I don't know if his sword elixir can be refined in one fell swoop.
"Master"
Chu Chen looked at his master, Fire Dragon Alchemist, and asked him to speak.
The Fire Dragon Alchemist was quite calm, looking at the alchemy furnace, standing with his hands behind his back, and said:
"Success or failure depends on this one move, no need to think too much, just recite the furnace opening spell."
Chu Chen nodded and immediately recited the mantra silently:
"I have made the elixir and asked the Eight Gods to open the furnace together. Don't let evil invade. Ghosts and ghosts will destroy anyone who offends. Anyone who blocks my furnace will be killed. Anyone who steals my elixir will be killed. Be as urgent as the law."
