After Jiheiro and the others left, Shi Zhong entered the alchemy state again, refining the medicinal materials needed to refine Ruixue Dan, a healing holy medicine. However, the medicinal materials for refining Peiyuan Dan were all carefully selected by himself, so the remaining
There are only two medicinal herbs that are 50 years old, one is the century-old wild ginseng, and the other is the 50-year-old Polygonum multiflorum that was purchased along with the wild ginseng in the capital. The others are mostly a few years old, many of which are older than 50 years.
It was picked while Shi Zhong was practicing on foot.
Sitting cross-legged in the stone cave, looking at the flames in the copper tripod, this time I was much more familiar with the journey. I grabbed a green palm-sized plant from the suitcase next to me. This plant is called Green Leaf Pine and has medicinal properties.
It is moisturizing and has the effect of accelerating muscle healing.
With a flick of the finger, there was a stream of light, and the green-leaf pine entered the hole in the lid of the cauldron.
As soon as he entered the medicine cauldron, the raging white elixir fire enveloped it. In just one breath, the green branches and leaves quickly turned brown. Then, the stone clock controlled the elixir fire, and the original temperature reached an extreme temperature of over a thousand degrees.
The elixir fire suddenly dropped a thousand times, grilling the green pine tepidly, picking out the impurities in it.
As this baking continues, drops of green liquid begin to leak out from the branches, leaves and stems of the green leaf pine, followed by the rapid withering of the branches, leaves and stems. When the last drop of green liquid is squeezed out of the green leaf pine,
After coming out, its body turned into coke ashes, sank to the bottom of the bronze tripod, and was expelled by the bronze tripod's special device.
Then, Shi Zhong moved with one hand, the air in front of him fluctuated, and then a thick green liquid was shot out from the special pipe of the bronze tripod. Shi Zhong put it into a jade bottle, waiting for the next use.
After obtaining the energy juice of the green leaf pine, Shi Zhong repeated this boring refining work again, but Shi Zhong never tired of it. The effect of this kind of work was faster than the practice, as the powder and liquid were continuously put into the jade bottle
, Shi Zhong's mood also increased with joy.
This time, Shi Zhong actually directly refined 30 medicinal materials and the Dantian Qi was not exhausted. The first time he successfully refined 20 medicinal materials, all of them were consumed, which made Shi Zhong extremely happy. Of course he knew that this was not just his own cultivation.
The reason for the improvement is that the success rate of refining medicinal materials has increased.
Outside the cave, Bai Xuanfeng was lying on the ground feeling bored, so he stood up, shook his thick and long white hair, and strode towards the depths of the back mountain. During the more than twenty days in Sanqing Mountain, it and
Black Tornado has already clearly explored the 50-kilometer-wide back mountain of Sanqing Mountain, and it is natural to follow its wild nature as it runs between the mountains and fields every day.
When I came to the mountain stream, I licked the clear stream water, and I didn't feel hot anymore. Suddenly, my ears moved, and the sound of "swirling" came. Bai Xuanfeng looked and saw a blue and white snake as thick as an adult's wrist swam towards the stream.
It is fully two meters long, with a snake head held high, and there is a blood-red snake crown on the head, which is extremely inconsistent with its cyan body.
"Chichi!"
The blue and white snake seemed to have discovered the existence of the white whirlwind. The snake's head was raised and stretched and retracted, with a cold and threatening gaze in its eyes. A forked tongue protruded from the snake's mouth, shaking forward. There was a snake crown on its head.
The blood surged one after another, becoming even brighter red, as if blood was about to splash out.
If an ordinary dog encounters such a thick snake, it may be afraid, but what kind of blood does Bai Tornado have? Its mother monopolizes the wolf pack after giving birth, and is still not afraid of killing the alpha wolf. Although it has not seen much, it has never been there.
In the prairie, the king's arrogance flows in his blood. When he saw the blue and white snake stretched out its snake letter to threaten him, he suddenly let out a low roar from the depths of his throat, like a dull drum beating one after another.
"sieve!"
Suddenly, the blue-and-white snake turned into a blue horse and pounced on the white whirlwind. It jumped up and was already entangled with a fishy wind. Then it curled up, opened its big mouth, the snake's teeth were fierce, and spurted out from the snake's mouth.
It has an extremely unpleasant fishy smell. If the average person just smells this fishy smell, he will probably feel dizzy and even want to hold his breath.
However, Bai Xuanfeng was fine, shaking his huge head like a lion, sideways dodging the blue and white snake's mouth, making people marvel at Bai Xuanfeng's innate fighting talent.
You should know that although snakes look slow when crawling, once they attack their prey, you will know how fast they are. They can bite the prey's body within 0.6 seconds. The larger ones use their body advantages to bite the prey.
It winds up tightly and suffocates its prey; the smaller ones are hunted with its deadly venom.
After Bai Xuanfeng's body jumped out to dodge, he suddenly turned around and clawed down with his right claw. The sharp claws had already poked out from the flippers. With a "bang", the blue and white snake's body was caught, and it suddenly let out a shrill scream.
, the blue and white snake shrank its head and turned around, and soon it was three meters away. There was a claw mark on its back, and its scales rolled up.
Bai Xuanfeng tilted his head and looked at his paws. In the past, he could kill the gray animals he encountered in the mountains with just one paw. Why didn't it work this time?
But little did he know that in the past, the rabbits that were hunted and killed were all pitiful rabbits that were covered in flesh, so they had no defense at all!
"Chichi!"
The blue and white snake was in pain, and the sound it made from its mouth became more harsh and sharp. The snake's crown was bulging and became increasingly red.
Moreover, the sitting posture of the blue and white snake is very strange. Its abdomen rises and falls together, and combined with the two protruding snake scales on its neck, it seems as if it is about to fly up at any time. Its whole head is constantly expanding and contracting, looking for opportunities for a fatal blow.
This guy's performance is very spiritual. Although he has not completely opened his spiritual intelligence, his IQ should not be underestimated.
Such a posture, holding back but not speaking out, brings a fierce aura to the face.
Suddenly the snake's body flexed, as if a sharp arrow was shot instantly. The snake's head pierced the air and bit out with a hissing sound. The target was Bai Tornado's neck.
Bai Xuanfeng's hind limbs suddenly lifted slightly, and then his head turned slightly to one side, causing the blue and white snake's mouth to miss. However, his bloody mouth quickly bit towards the blue and white snake's neck.
With a "crack", the snake scales, which were as hard as sharp claws and could not be scratched, cracked with the terrifying bite force of White Tornado. Then White Tornado's strong head kept shaking to prevent the blue and white snake from biting him.
Secondly, it can increase the tearing force.
The two-meter-long snake body soon lost its strength to struggle. Bai Xuanfeng dropped the snake body to the ground, and then kept waving its forelimbs. After a while, the snake's head was smashed and it fainted, whipping the body to vent his anger!
After beating the snake body into meat paste, Bai Xuanfeng suddenly lowered his head and sniffed, as if he smelled something delicious. He moved his mouth close to the snake meat and pounded out something black and green, which was the gallbladder of the blue and white snake.
After hesitating for a while, Bai Xuanfeng's eyes flashed with confusion. Although he had never seen such a weird thing, but instinctively, Bai Xuanfeng swallowed the huge snake gallbladder in one gulp.
Bai Xuanfeng, who didn't know the price, chewed it a few times, screamed strangely, and hurried to the stream, drinking the clear water in big gulps, his mouth full of bitterness, and his tongue kept twitching.
After a while, Bai Xuanfeng felt that his belly suddenly began to feel hot, and the blood and energy all over his body began to rage. He couldn't help but jump into the river next to him, and then roared loudly.
If Shi Zhong were to react with his spiritual consciousness again, he would definitely be able to see the situation inside Bai Xuanfeng's body. A hot aura rose up in his body, and the heat flow seemed to be like the raging Yellow River water colliding in his body.
"Bang bang!"
The energy that could not flow expanded rapidly in the big tendons. From the outside, its body under the snow-white hair suddenly became swollen and turned red, as if it was a roasted hot dog.
As the white whirlwind surged uneasily in the water, its whole body made a "sizzling" sound, just like a blacksmith forging a sword and inserting the hot red iron sword into the sword washing bucket. After a while, the white whirlwind's whole body made a hazy sound.
water vapor.
After struggling for a while, Bai Xuanfeng dragged his wet body up from the stream and climbed ashore. He immediately shook his body, and the thick and long hair all over his body swayed. Under the sun, his whole body became wet in a short while.
After drying, the smooth hair rested quietly on the skin, and an unusual light shone out between his eyes. Vaguely, Bai Xuanfeng seemed to have grown in size.
After refining all the medicinal materials, Shi Zhong breathed a sigh of relief, sat down cross-legged, and held the practice mudra with both hands. After a full hour, Shi Zhong slowly opened his eyes, and the Tao power in his Dantian became full again.
One by one, the stone bells put the refined essence of medicinal materials into the copper tripod in sequence according to the prescription, and adjust the flames of different temperatures with each addition of medicinal materials.
The blazing white flames enveloped all the medicinal essences that entered the cauldron, and then began the most violent calcination. Under the control of Shi Zhong, the medicinal essences were tempered with maximum firepower and allowed to initially fuse.
After about half a quarter of an hour of high-temperature quenching, dozens of medicinal essences with different medicinal properties began to fuse. The medicinal powder and liquid blended together, then boiled, rolled, and changed color in the flames.
With such careful control, there are already a few drops of sweat on Shi Zhong's forehead. He uses the elixir fire to temper to shorten the elixir refining time. This is Shi Zhong's first attempt to use the hot elixir fire to force the fusion of various medicines in the early stage.
Extend the simmering time several times, and then reduce the simmering time. Trading a quarter of an hour at high temperature for a few days of simmering can indeed shorten a lot of time.
The liquid medicine rolled and pulled in the flames. As time passed, the prototype of the medicine gradually formed in the flames in the copper cauldron, a viscous fist-sized green medicine liquid.
Immediately afterwards, Shi Zhong removed the terrifying elixir fire and replaced it with ordinary flames. He shot three palms at the copper cauldron in succession. The majestic vitality poured into the copper cauldron, supporting the consumption of the flames.
When we came out of the cave, the sky had already darkened. Looking at the sun, it was almost dusk, and the clouds on the horizon were stained with golden brilliance.
"Hey, where's the white whirlwind?" Shi Zhong didn't find the white whirlwind in front of the cave. He was a little curious. In the past, when he was refining alchemy and practicing, he would greet him at the entrance of the cave every time. Why wasn't he here this time?
Thinking of Xuan Mingzi who wanted to suck Bai Xuanfeng's essence for the first time, Shi Zhong couldn't stand still and became nervous. He vowed that if anything happened to Bai Xuanfeng, Xuan Mingzi would repay the debt with his own blood. (To be continued. If you like
