Shen Mo took out the prepared firewood from his arms and lit the firewood under the alchemy cauldron.
Then, according to the records of the elixir recipe, the medicinal materials for refining the aphrodisiac powder were put into the elixir cauldron.
Tempered by the fire of the alchemy cauldron.
After boiling the main medicine, blood tiger grass, into a puddle of spiritual water, carefully remove the impurities from the elixir.
Afterwards, several auxiliary herbs for refining Zhuang Yang Powder were put into the alchemy cauldron in sequence.
Wait until all the elixirs are tempered and boiled into concoction.
Shen Mo took a deep breath, raised his palm slightly, and formed a hand seal of Yundan.
"Refining!"
He gave a low drink and formed seals with his hands, a faint fluorescence emerging from the palms of his hands.
Finally, a talisman was struck on the alchemy cauldron.
All the medicinal liquids are blended and gathered in the alchemy cauldron.
The next moment is the Danyun link.
When refining alchemy, you need to condense different alchemy handprints according to different situations, and control the fire, temperature, and rhythm of the alchemy cauldron.
Don’t be impatient at this stage, just wait patiently.
Shen Mo waited for about two sticks of incense and felt the aphrodisiac in the cauldron gradually taking shape before he started the last step.
Condensate pills to shape your body!
"Buzz!"
After making another hand seal, the burning Red Cloud Pill Cauldron shook slightly and made a buzzing sound.
The next moment, the lid of the cauldron rose into the sky, and a strange fragrance filled the air from inside the cauldron.
"Is it done?" Shen Mo asked about the strange fragrance, with a look of joy on his face.
Before I was happy for a long time, the strange fragrance suddenly disappeared and was replaced by an unpleasant burnt smell.
[You tried to refine Yang Yang Powder and failed.]
[Your understanding of alchemy has improved, alchemy experience 1]
[You have a higher proficiency in refining aphrodisiac, proficiency in aphrodisiac 2]
In the panel information bar, a reminder quickly appeared in front of you.
"Sure enough...it is basically impossible to succeed in refining alchemy for the first time."
"There should be nothing wrong with the elixir accumulation stage. It is the stage of elixir condensation and shaping... Is it too early to set up the cauldron?"
After the failed Shen Mo made some summaries, he quickly started the fire again and prepared for a new round of refining.
........
One night passed, and the sun rose in the east.
Shen Mo glanced at the sky and twisted his neck, which was a little sore from refining elixirs for a long time: "Time passed very quickly, and it was a night before I knew it."
That night, he made a total of thirty times of aphrodisiac.
There are three copies of the finished product, and the remaining twenty-seven copies are all failures.
"It's already pretty good."
Shen Mo was not disappointed with this result, on the contrary, he was quite satisfied.
After all, this is already a much better yield than the first time he made talismans.
The reason for this achievement should be that Shen Mo gained a lot of experience out of thin air due to the alchemy experience left by Master Hongyun.
The lifelong experience of a second-grade alchemist helped him avoid many detours.
When it was time to report to Shanmen, he glanced at the bright sky outside the window.
I tidied up the house, washed up, and was ready to go out.
But before going out——
"Try it and see."
He picked up a finished aphrodisiac and swallowed it.
"Huh...this medicine is very effective."
As the elixir enters the abdomen, a burning sensation spreads in the body, and along with the continuous absorption and refining of "Tian Yuan Gong".
Soon, the medicinal power was refined into streams of pure spiritual energy, which were concentrated in the sea of energy.
“After learning this elixir recipe, I won’t have to worry about taking myrrh in the future.”
The greatest effect of Zhuang Yang Powder is to enhance the Qi and blood of monks in the body-forging realm, strengthen their physical strength, and accumulate the power of practice.
In terms of efficacy and value, it is not as precious as the extremely rare Qi Gathering Pill, which can allow monks to break through the realm with just one pill.
However, this medicine is cheap and has low resistance to medicine. It can be taken for a long time, and it will work over a long period of time, which can shorten the time of hard work.
Relying on the power of this dose of Yang Yang Powder, Shen Mo solidified the aura that had just broken through a few days ago and was still a little frivolous, consolidating his newly ascended realm.
.........
Linjiang Sect, Shanmen.
When Shen Mo came over, Cao Ren had already arrived.
After he said hello, he started fishing as usual and asked this guy to guard it for him.
And he used this time to concentrate on practicing Tianyuan Gong.
At noon, it’s time to eat.
Cao Ren suddenly told Shen Mo some news.
"I have submitted my resignation to the deacon. From tomorrow on, I will no longer guard the mountain gate."
"You quit?"
Shen Mo frowned slightly, a little surprised.
"That's right." Cao Ren nodded and said: "My cultivation has reached a critical stage, and I am not far from breaking through."
"In the past two months, I plan to make a sprint and rely on the Qi Gathering Pill you gave me to retreat for a while."
"If everything goes well, we should be able to break through."
He has approached the perfect state of the body forging state, and a breakthrough means entering the Qi gathering state.
Once successful, you can become an inner disciple and realize your long-cherished wish.
"In the future, I will no longer be able to guard the mountain with you."
"You work hard alone and don't touch fish, otherwise you will be caught and scolded by the deacon."
This guy is leaving.
I’m afraid it won’t be that easy if I want to practice fishing while on duty in the future.
Shen Mo couldn't help but feel a touch of sadness as he thought about it.
The originally cheerful mood also became a bit heavier.
.............
In the next few days, Shen Mo was guarding the mountain gate alone.
I guard during the day and come back to practice Qigong and alchemy at night. I feel that there is not enough time.
On the fourth day, a new disciple named Zhao arrived and guarded the mountain gate with him.
However, this disciple named Zhao has a cold personality and an ice-faced face, and is not as easy to talk to as Cao Ren.
After two days of contact with Shen Mo, he felt that there was little chance to train him into a tool to help him fish.
Finally, after much thought, I approached the deacon and submitted my resignation.
Guarding the iron rice bowl of the mountain gate is not done properly.
"From now on, I can make alchemy and talismans with peace of mind to supplement my practice."
On the way back, Shen Mo murmured.
The salary for the job of guarding the mountain gate is really not that much.
Shen Mo had no way of making a living before, so he could only work a job like this. It would be good to receive some spiritual supplies every month.
Now that he has become proficient in making talismans, the benefits he can bring to Shen Mo are much higher than this.
This monthly salary is dispensable.
The most important reason why I haven't resigned is because I have a leisurely job.
With Cao Ren's help, I don't waste my time at all. I can fish as much as I want, and do private work during working hours for free.
But now that Cao Ren is gone, there is no one to help him guard the fish.
Spending time here every day is a waste of practice time, which is not worth it. It is better to quit this job and concentrate on practice.
"You can't be lazy after quitting your job."
Back in the room, Shen Mo took out a pen and paper and listed out a detailed plan: "How to arrange time next, you have to make a plan."
Cultivation also requires perseverance and self-discipline.
"You can't just refine elixirs, nor can you improve your cultivation, martial arts, including magical skills."
"It has to be fully developed."
Last month, Shen Mo put all his time and energy into making talismans, but instead neglected his practice.
Shen Mo thought seriously: "The time for refining alchemy should be from early morning to noon. The afternoon is used for practicing meditation, and the evening is used for practicing martial arts."
