In order to prevent him from being known to Xuan Daogong as soon as he entered Nakamoto Yuanzhou, from the moment he left Litian Sword Sect, he transformed into Wang Qingyang, a casual cultivator with his sister.
After Wang Tiezhu introduced himself, Lan Yang also briefly introduced himself.
After hearing the introductions of the two men, Senior Lu nodded lightly and returned his gaze to Di Wu.
"Since you want to go to Middle-earth, you came to me to ask for antidote pills and beast-repelling incense, right? But I'm afraid you won't be able to do so..."
Di Wu was stunned when he heard this, "Senior Lu, what do you mean by this?"
Senior Lu pointed at the back room where black smoke was still coming out, spread out his hands and said: "Since the previous spiritual herb has been used up, I want to replace it with another spiritual herb with a similar effect.
But I don’t know what went wrong, and I still couldn’t refine it successfully. What you just saw was the twenty-eighth time I blew up the furnace..."
"Twenty-eight times?"
Hearing this number, even Wang Tiezhu couldn't help but sigh, what a perseverant alchemist!
"this……"
When Di Wu heard this, there was a tangled look on his face. It was okay to ask him to draw a talisman, but when it came to the method of alchemy, it could be said that seven orifices were connected to six orifices - he was clueless at all!
Just when he was in trouble, he saw Wang Tiezhu stand up.
"Senior Lu, I am also very interested in elixirs. I usually collect the handbooks of some famous masters to study. I wonder if I can let you take a look at the process of refining elixirs. Maybe I will find something. After all, the authorities are obsessed with it.
, Bystanders are wise!”
Senior Lu stared at him with his one eye for a while, and finally nodded.
"Since you know something, let's take a look together..."
After that, he led several of them to the alchemy room.
Senior Lu's alchemy room is not big. The surrounding walls and the ground are covered with formations. These formations eventually gathered in the center of the ground, forming a circle.
On top of the ring, there is an alchemy furnace half as tall as a man.
This shows that Senior Lu is not using natural spiritual fire, but the spiritual fire produced by the fire array.
Compared with natural spiritual fire, this kind of spiritual fire loses part of its spirituality, but it is better because you don't need to find a natural fire source. You only need to carve the fire array into it and then throw it into the spiritual crystal.
It's just that the lid of this alchemy furnace is not on top, but lying quietly in the corner of the room, and bursts of black smoke are still emitting from the furnace.
Looking at this alchemy furnace, Wang Tiezhu's eyes shone.
With his eyesight, he can naturally see the extraordinary features of this alchemy furnace.
Not to mention anything else, just because it can withstand twenty-eight furnace explosions and is still so well preserved, it is already better than most alchemy furnaces in the world!
Senior Lu walked to the alchemy furnace and waved his hand. The slag inside instantly turned into fly ash and disappeared. With another wave of his hand, the lid of the alchemy furnace in the corner fell firmly on top of the alchemy furnace. The previous explosion furnace
It's like it never happened.
After doing all this, he sat down cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace, took out various spiritual herbs from the Qiankun bag, and then pinched the magic formula with his hands. He was about to light the spiritual fire, but stopped for a moment and turned to look at Wang Tiezhu.
"Boy, you have to see clearly."
Seeing Wang Tiezhu nod, he turned around again and activated the fire array.
A cluster of bright yellow spiritual fire ignited from the ring in the center of the fire array, and the jumping tongues of fire kept licking the bottom of the alchemy furnace, causing the temperature inside the alchemy furnace to rise sharply.
Then he began to throw the spiritual herbs inside one by one in order, but when he put in the fourth spiritual grass, Wang Tiezhu frowned.
"The impurities in the third spiritual grass have not been completely refined, so too much of the fourth spiritual grass was put into it. It was because of this impurity that the refining failed in the end..."
Although he saw the problem, he did not remind him. First of all, it was too late at that time, and it was too late to remind him.
Secondly, the alchemist needs to be highly concentrated when refining the elixir. It would be a bit embarrassing if he was distracted because of his own words and the alchemy failed.
Not long after, a plume of black smoke rose from the alchemy furnace, announcing that the alchemy had failed again. However, one thing that was better than last time was that at least the furnace did not explode this time.
Looking at the alchemy furnace in front of him, Senior Lu shook his head helplessly and turned to look at Wang Tiezhu beside him.
"Boy, what did you see?"
Wang Tiezhu stepped forward, nodded slightly and said: "Senior, if I guess correctly, the new spiritual grass you added should be the third one, right?"
Senior Lu was stunned when he heard this, and said to himself that he thought this guy was just talking, but he didn't expect that he was actually quite capable!
"That's right, it's the third one..." Senior Lu nodded and continued: "For the previous detoxification pill, the third one contained a spiritual herb called Whirling Flower.
But this kind of spiritual grass is difficult to find now, so I replaced it with shadow grass. Logically speaking, their medicinal properties are similar, so there should be no problem..."
Wang Tiezhu shook his head, "Senior, the failure of refining is not due to the incompatibility of medicinal properties. If I guess correctly, the shadow grass you chose should have grown longer than the previous Brahma flower, right?"
Senior Lu was shocked again and thought to himself, can you even see this?
"Yes, because I was worried that the medicinal power of the shadow grass would not be as good as that of the Salha flower, I deliberately chose one that was more than a hundred years old. What? Could it have something to do with this?"
"Well, that's the problem!"
Wang Tiezhu reached out and picked up a black spiritual grass on the ground. This was exactly the shadow grass that Senior Lu mentioned.
"Although the medicinal power of the spiritual grass will become stronger as the years go by, the impurities accumulated in it will become more deeply rooted and difficult to remove.
If you want it to have the same effect as the Salha flower, you need to preheat the alchemy furnace in advance, then put it first, and after the impurities are removed, continue to add other spiritual herbs, and it should be fine."
"Is it that simple?" Senior Lu glanced at him dubiously.
"Haha, senior will know if it succeeds or not after trying it!"
"Okay! If the refining is successful as you said, then I will give you the antidote pills and beast-repelling incense you need for this trip for free!"
After that, he cleared the alchemy furnace with a wave of his hand and started a new round of alchemy according to what Wang Tiezhu said.
Looking at Senior Lu who was attentive, Lan Yang quietly came to Wang Tiezhu's side.
"My dear fellow Daoist Wang, when did you learn the art of alchemy?"
Wang Tiezhu smiled slightly and said, "It's a long story. Let's talk about it later..."
"All right……"
An hour later, until the spiritual fire in the fire array was extinguished, there was no abnormal news from the alchemy furnace. Everyone present was full of expectations and watched eagerly as Senior Lu slowly walked towards the alchemy furnace...
