The fifth-level high-grade Ziyang Furnace, which is also an alchemy furnace, is extremely rare. Of course, Su Fan loves this magic weapon very much. Indeed, he has many treasures on his body, whether it is the Bone Gun or the Fuso Sacred Tree, they are all in this Ziyang Furnace.
Above the furnace, this Ziyang furnace is of great help to his current improvement of alchemy skills.
At least this Ziyang Furnace can guarantee the success rate of his alchemy, and even increase the success rate of his alchemy.
Of course, this is because his soul is powerful enough to refine the Purple Sun Furnace. Otherwise, if it were another Zifu monk, he would not be able to use the Purple Sun Furnace even if it was placed in front of him.
With this Ziyang Furnace, Su Fan has greater confidence in refining the Foundation Establishment Pill.
First, he introduced the earth fire from the veins of earth fire, and after heating the Ziyang furnace, Su Fan began to try to refine the third-level high-grade spiritual elixir, the pulse protection pill.
As the name suggests, this pulse-protecting pill is a pill that protects the meridians.
The ninth level of Qi training monks all face the problem of foundation building. There is no foundation building pill, unless it is a heavenly spirit root. The success rate of other spiritual root monks is less than 30%, which means that the success rate of the alien spirit root may be more than 30%.
Ordinary three spiritual roots are only 10%. This success rate is really too low. What's more important is that without the foundation building pill, a ninth-level qi-training monk who forcibly builds the foundation is an act of failure or failure.
Once it fails, the meridians will be damaged, and then the body will die and the path will disappear.
However, the Foundation Establishment Pill is extremely precious in the Zheng Kingdom. Even the Yunyang Sect is very precious, let alone other immortal cultivating families.
In the entire Zheng Kingdom, if there were 10,000 monks at the ninth level of Qi training, there would be at most only ten people who could obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill, a one-in-a-thousand chance.
This has also led to many monks at the ninth level of Qi training who dare not build a foundation. They would rather die of old age than have the courage to build a foundation.
And you can't blame them for being timid, after all, the mortality rate is too high.
So gradually, alchemists began to try to refine an elixir that could protect the meridians.
So the Pulse Protection Pill appeared. This kind of pill is considered an ancient pill, even before the Foundation Establishment Pill.
The Meridian Protecting Pill, a Qi-training monk, can protect the meridians from breaking even if they fail when building the foundation. If it fails, the monk will at most only suffer damage to the meridians, which is not fatal, and can be repaired.
The effect is good.
It was also very popular at one time, but later, because the cost was too high, after all, the elixir required for the Pulse Protecting Pill, the main medicine, must be at least a third-level elixir, and they are all more than 500 years old.
Just one furnace of pulse-protecting pills requires eight thousand spiritual stones, which is not something that ordinary forces can afford.
After all, the cost is too high, and the effect is not too high. After all, it is just to protect a ninth level of Qi training. It is good to succeed in foundation building. Becoming a foundation building monk will greatly increase the value.
But it failed, and a pill worth nearly two thousand spiritual stones was wasted. How much value can a ninth-level Qi training bring?
So over time, gradually, only the top powers could refine this pulse-protecting pill. Later, after the foundation-building pill appeared, the value of this pulse-protecting pill dropped again.
After all, the foundation-building pill also has the effect of protecting the pulse, and it is more effective than the pulse-protecting pill. It can also increase the success rate of the Qi Practitioner's foundation-building.
Therefore, the Foundation Establishment Pill has completely replaced the Vein Guard Pill. Even though the Foundation Establishment Pill costs more, its effect is better.
However, although the Pulse Protecting Pill was gradually abandoned, the recipe was still passed down.
After Su Fan got it from Master Zixu, he naturally learned about the Pulse Protection Pill, and he felt that this Pulse Protection Pill was a good elixir for the Su family.
The foundation-building pill is indeed much more effective than the pulse-protecting pill.
But apart from the fact that it is difficult to refine, the elixir for refining it is also very rare. Even if the third-level demonic beast inner elixir is used as the main elixir, other auxiliary elixirs are not that easy to collect.
This time, it took the Su family more than half a year to gather these auxiliary elixirs.
Those auxiliary elixirs are all third-level, and many of them require about five hundred years.
For Su Fan, cost is not a problem, but collecting key elixirs is the biggest problem.
Relatively speaking, the elixir needed for this pulse-protecting pill is easy to find.
Moreover, in Su Fan's view, the Pulse Protecting Pill is more suitable for the Su family. It is low in cost and not difficult to refine, even though the effect is not as good as the Foundation Building Pill.
But he can save the life of the Qi Practitioner.
More importantly, in Su Fan's opinion, such Qi-training monks still have the opportunity to continue trying to build foundations. After experiencing this life and death training, Su Fan believes that most of the ninth-level Qi-training monks will undergo transformation.
The next time they build a foundation, even if they don't have a foundation building pill, their chances of success will be greatly increased.
And once the foundation is established, these monks, compared to those who take the Foundation Establishment Pill, their mana and spiritual consciousness are far superior to those of the same level, and they will be more beneficial to the future opening of the Purple Mansion.
Su Fan is very clear about the benefits of this.
Therefore, in Su Fan's view, the value of the pulse protection pill is actually higher. This gives those monks with poor spiritual roots but strong will a chance. Once the foundation is successfully built, not to mention soaring into the sky, but Su Fan believes that they
The road ahead may be smoother.
Moreover, the disciples of the Su family have begun to practice the purple energy secret method passed down by Su Fan to increase the power of the soul. If combined with the Pulse Protecting Pill, the number of Foundation Building monks will increase by one to two percent in the future even without the Foundation Building Pill.
And these are all foundation-building monks who have not taken foundation-building pills.
There is a common sense in the world of immortal cultivation that foundation-building monks who do not have foundation-building pills to assist them are far superior to those who take foundation-building pills in terms of combat power and potential.
If the Su family can reach this point, its rise in the future will be inevitable.
So Su Fan also began to train alchemists. Once the family has a third-level high-level alchemist, this pulse protection pill will become the most important pill in the family, and its importance is even higher than the foundation-building pill.
As for cost, it was not considered by Su Fan at all.
In fact, Su Fan also mentioned this matter to the clan leader. When the latter heard this, he was shocked at first, and then was surprised by the beautiful scene described by Su Fan.
If this is true, the Su family's future will definitely have unlimited potential.
Regarding the refining of the Pulse Protecting Pill, Su Fan was quite calm.
Lighting the fire, warming the furnace, and putting the medicine in, everything was done so leisurely. The next step was the warming and nourishing liquid. Warming and nourishing the liquid was a long-term process, although it did not require much mana at this stage.
And given Su Fan's powerful magic power, he didn't care at all.
However, this process requires more spiritual energy to observe the changes in the medicinal liquid in the alchemy furnace.
The final step is to condense the medicinal liquid into a pill.
After ten days of hard work, this third-level high-grade pulse-protecting pill was finally ready.
In the pill furnace, five round red pills appeared in Su Fan's palm, and he put them into the porcelain bottle with a wave of his hand.
