Ignite the fire, preheat, extract the essence, condense the elixir and start the furnace...
Soon, the small tripod exuded a familiar medicinal fragrance.
This time, Liu Yu learned from the experience of previous failures and waited a little longer.
But in just a few short breaths, the medicinal fragrance disappeared, and instead there was a burnt smell.
Without a doubt, another failure!!
"."
There was no sadness or joy on Liu Yu's face, and her heart was "calm as water".
For beginners, failure is common, and every alchemist will go through this stage.
After all, failure is the mother of success.
"Alchemy Notes"
Liu Yu felt uneasy and did not continue refining. Instead, he took out a booklet and recorded the problems he encountered.
Think carefully about your shortcomings, and save those questions that you cannot understand for later, go to the Sutra Pavilion to read the classics, or consult an alchemist when you have the opportunity.
Two quarters of an hour later, his seemingly calm state of mind finally returned to normal and he continued to refine.
Ignite, preheat, condense, start the furnace...
…
Time flies, and another half month has passed.
In the thatched house, Liu Yu looked a little haggard, with long hair scattered on her shoulders, looking a little slovenly.
But his eyes were exceptionally bright, and his dark pupils were deep and distant.
During these half months, Liu Yu would refine two or three furnaces of elixirs every day.
Just nine days ago, he finally succeeded in refining a batch of spirit-gathering pills and made eight pills.
With one successful experience as a reference, I was able to succeed every four or five furnaces, and obtained a total of twenty-four Spirit Gathering Pills.
After the elixir of the Juling Pill was used up, Liu Yu began to refine the "Qingling Pill".
It's just that the refining of this elixir is more difficult. It contains one more elixir than the Spirit-Gathering elixir, and is much more complicated in all aspects.
After using up the fifteen elixirs, only two furnaces were successfully refined, and fifteen Qingling Pills were obtained.
"good."
"After a month of sleepless nights and sleepless nights, I finally got some results."
Looking at the five jade bottles in front of him, a smile appeared on Liu Yu's haggard face.
Immediately, he wrote down his experiences and difficulties over the past few days in his "Alchemy Notes".
After the task is over, you will have time and opportunity to solve the problems.
After recording, Liu Yu waved her sleeves and put the jade bottle containing the elixir and the booklet recording the alchemy notes into the storage bag.
Generally speaking, the Spirit-Gathering Pill has one spirit stone per pill, and the Qingling Pill has three spirit stones per pill.
These elixirs add up to approximately sixty-nine spiritual stones.
A portion of the spiritual grass and elixir for refining the Spirit-Gathering Pill is worth about three spirit stones, and a portion of the Qingling Pill is worth five spirit stones.
The elixir consumed this time was worth about 165 spiritual stones.
The elixir obtained was only worth sixty-nine spiritual stones, a total loss of ninety-six spiritual stones.
In just one practice, ninety-six spiritual stones were lost.
If you want to become a qualified alchemist, you have to go through countless exercises and invest thousands of spiritual stones.
Such losses are enough to make some small-scale immortal cultivation forces vomit blood and go bankrupt, and large sect families will also be heartbroken.
It is precisely because the threshold for learning alchemy is so high that alchemists are so rare.
Perhaps because of his two lifetimes, Liu Yu's spiritual consciousness is a little stronger than that of monks of the same level, and he can better understand the changes in the power of the medicine during the process of refining alchemy. The initial success rate is slightly higher than that of ordinary alchemy apprentices.
He stood up and shook off the dust from his body.
Then, he put the copper tripod into his storage bag and took out the three spiritual stones embedded in the miniature formation.
This is already the third time to replace the spiritual stone. The spiritual energy of the previous two spiritual stones has long been exhausted.
Liu Yu opened the doors and windows to allow the air in the room to circulate, dissipate the scent of the medicine left during the alchemy, and eliminate the traces of the formation one by one.
Finally, I didn't forget to take out a piece of cloth, wrap the powder and impurities left behind by the elixir, and put it into a storage bag to take away.
Then just find a place and bury it without anyone noticing.
This month, Liu Yu collected many elixir seeds, most of which were commonly used elixirs during the Qi refining period, as well as a small number of rare elixir seeds that were difficult to buy outside.
But there are not many spiritual stones left at this time, so there is no need to rush the ripening process.
After taking one last glance and carefully checking that nothing was missing, Liu Yu left the room.
…
On the wooden bed, Liu Yu sat cross-legged.
The exercise "Wood Spirit Art" operates slowly, carrying out a great cycle of heaven and earth, refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
After completing his daily meditation practice, he placed the wooden box containing the elixir seeds in the palm of his hand.
A ray of spiritual consciousness probed towards the green light spot of Niwan Palace, a familiar suction force came, and the sky and the earth turned black before his eyes.
Liu Yu opened his eyes again, they had turned into a red light ball, and the wooden box was floating beside him.
Dark void, blue barrier, floating island
A month has passed, and there has been no change in the space of the Immortal Mansion. It seems that time has lost its meaning here.
Liu Yu used her spiritual consciousness to pull the wooden box and float it towards the small wooden house on the left.
In the small wooden house on the left, rows of wooden boxes are neatly placed on the cabinet. This is where the elixir seeds are stored.
He opened one of the wooden boxes and took out a soybean-sized, dark seed, which was the seed of "Ganoderma lucidum".
Liu Yu controlled the seed and floated straight to the spiritual field.
Today, he was going to experiment again and test the ripening ability of the black spiritual field.
After digging up the black spiritual soil and planting the Ganoderma lucidum seeds, Liu Yu waited patiently beside him.
After a while, where the seeds were planted, a little green sprout broke through the spiritual soil, and then grew rapidly at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye.
It seems that time has accelerated countless times on it!
About ten hours later, the tiny green bud had turned into a three-inch Ganoderma lucidum with green lines on its surface.
At this point, it no longer continues to grow. It seems to have reached its limit and time has returned to normal.
"It seems to be about two hundred years old."
Liu Yu approached, looked around the green Ganoderma lucidum, and came to a preliminary conclusion.
He once saw information about Ganoderma lucidum in a sect book and recognized the size and characteristics of each age stage.
The growth limit of Ganoderma lucidum is a thousand years, and it can even be used to refine elixirs for improving mana in the Nascent Soul stage.
"Could it be that the limit of ripening in the Immortal Mansion is only two hundred years?!"
This thought flashed through his mind, and Liu Yu was immediately worried about gains and losses.
"It's really greedy."
But he quickly regained his composure. Even if he could only ripen it for two hundred years, it would still be extraordinary.
If you are too greedy, you will pay the price one day.
It is normal for such a magical fairy house to have some restrictions.
Perhaps, this is the balance of the great road!
"Why did the Immortal Mansion turn into green light spots and travel with my soul?!"
"Why was such a heaven-defying treasure refined by a mere Qi Refining Stage monk like me?!"
"Is it because my cultivation level is too low, which limits the ability of the Immortal Mansion?!"
Countless speculations flashed through Liu Yu's mind.
But after thinking for a long time, I still haven't come up with the answer, and there is no way to verify it yet.
So he had no choice but to collect his thoughts and stop worrying about these things.
The soul was fluttering, and Liu Yu took out a wooden box from the small wooden house on the right to contain Ganoderma lucidum.
With a thought, he left the Immortal Mansion space.
…
It went dark again, the soul had returned to the physical body,
Although entering and leaving the Immortal Mansion was extremely mentally taxing, Liu Yu still kept her spirits up and used her skills to complete her daily practice.
"The fourth level of Qi refining has reached perfection."
"The time to break through to the fifth level of Qi Refining should be within the next few days."
During the exercise, feeling the increase in cultivation, this thought flashed across his mind.
With Liu Yu's qualifications of three spiritual roots, he reached the fifth level of Qi Refining at the age of eighteen, which is considered an average level in the Yuanyang Sect.
If this continues, there is a lot of hope to break through to the seventh level of Qi refining before the age of thirty.
The Yuanyang Sect stipulates that those with heavenly spiritual roots and foreign spiritual roots can directly become inner disciples.
The remaining spiritual root monks must reach the seventh level of Qi Refining before the age of thirty before they can become inner disciples.
The treatment of the inner sect is far better than that of the outer sect. Not only are more elixirs and spirit stones distributed every month, but they also perform tasks less frequently and have more time to devote to cultivation.
Even the chance of getting the "Foundation Building Pill" is far greater than that of the outer door!
Not long after finishing practice, there were slight fluctuations in the restriction.
"It should be the same disciple who takes over."
Liu Yu guessed, and then observed through the ban.
Looking out from the inside, an outer disciple holding a token and wearing a gray robe was standing outside the ban, waiting.
Seeing that everything was normal, Liu Yu stepped forward to inquire and said hello.
After confirming the identity of the visitor, the handover was completed quickly, and after a few greetings, they said goodbye without too much politeness.
He patted the storage bag, and the "Cold Light Sword", the standard magical weapon issued by the sect, appeared in the palm of his hand.
"buzz"
Input mana and it will grow to one foot in size in the blink of an eye.
Jumping on the flying sword with his toes, Liu Yufa pinched it, and it turned into a gray light and flew towards Qingquan Peak.
In the early morning sunlight, in a few blinks, the light disappeared among the mountains.
On the way, Liu Yu found an uninhabited barren mountain, dug a hole and threw the cloth bag containing the alchemy impurities in, before taking off again.
