Chapter 19: A waste of alchemy, teaching students in accordance with their aptitude
[Ding dong! The host transfers the apprentice’s 300 days of cultivation, and the reward is ten times the reward, and he gets 3000 days of cultivation! 】
After parting ways with Bai Luuri and Li Qingxuan, after three days of trekking, Xiao Xuan and his disciples finally arrived at the Luoyun Sect, which was thousands of miles away from the Hongmeng Sect.
After finding an inn to stay in Luoyun City at the foot of Luoyun Sect Mountain, Xiao Xuan couldn't wait to give Zhinu initiation and pass on his skills.
This initiation directly raised the child slave's cultivation level to the first level of Qi training, and Xiao Xuan also received rewards from the system's feedback, and his cultivation level broke through to the sixth level of the golden elixir.
"Zhinu, please take a look at this basic alchemy book. It contains a lot of knowledge about elixirs."
Taking out a thick secret book, Xiao Xuan handed it to Zhinu.
In addition to his extraordinary qualifications in realm cultivation, Xiao Xuan has mediocre talents in other side skills such as martial arts, alchemy, weapon making, etc., and is not deeply involved.
After a child slave reaches the first level of Qi training, he can activate spiritual energy to form elixir fire to refine elixirs.
In line with the principle of all-round development without shortcomings, Xiao Xuan thought of testing the child slave's alchemy talent, and if possible, using system feedback rewards to quickly improve his alchemy attainments.
[Ding dong! The host gives the apprentice basic alchemy skills, and the rewards are five times greater, and he gets advanced alchemy skills! 】
The advanced alchemy technique is available in the Hongmeng Sect's Sutra Pavilion. This reward is completely useless.
Zhinu took over the basic alchemy and started to read it. After reading it, there was a confused expression on his face.
"Master, some of the knowledge above seems simple, but is actually complicated. I don't feel like I understand it. Can you teach me?"
The young slave looked eager for knowledge.
Looking at Zhi Nu's expectant eyes, Xiao Xuan nodded, took the basic alchemy technique from Zhi Nu, and explained it in detail: "The way of alchemy is broad and profound, but the basic introduction to alchemy is very simple.
The spiritual energy turns into elixir fire, which is calcined in the elixir furnace, and then the medicinal materials are put into the elixir furnace one by one according to the order on the elixir recipe."
Although Xiao Xuan is not familiar with the art of alchemy, the basic principles are very clear.
Seeing Zhi Nu's confused expression, Xiao Xuan smiled and continued: "The so-called alchemy fire is the foundation and core of alchemy. It converts the spiritual energy in the body into the form of flames to keep the temperature of the alchemy furnace at an optimal level.
In this condition, the liquid medicine in the alchemy furnace will not deteriorate, melt or solidify, and then we will wait for the elixir to be completed."
"However, once the heat is not well controlled and the medicinal materials are put in step by step, the failure rate of alchemy will be horrifyingly high."
"Then Qi training can only refine the first-level spiritual elixir, the second-level foundation building, and the third-level golden elixir... Is it because the higher the realm, the higher the temperature of the elixir fire that can be formed?"
The young slave's understanding is indeed very high, and he can understand it with just a few clicks, which makes Xiao Xuan very satisfied.
"That's right, so there's nothing difficult about alchemy. It's just a process that makes you perfect with practice. You already understand the basics of alchemy. Now you just need to spend time practicing and I believe you will be able to get started soon."
As he spoke, Xiao Xuan pointed to a line of words on the basic alchemy technique and said: "This level of Peiyuan Dan can help people restore their vitality, blood and spiritual energy. The above is the detailed refining method and the required medicinal materials. You first go to the Chinese medicine shop in the city.
Buy the alchemy furnace and these medicinal materials and start practicing."
"Yes! Master!"
The childish slave saluted respectfully and immediately ran out.
Looking at the back of Zhimu leaving excitedly, Xiao Xuan smiled and shook his head.
It is true that the basics of alchemy are simple, but it requires tenacity, patience and a large amount of resources to be called simple.
Fortunately, I am wealthy and have enough resources for my childish slaves to squander.
However, if you want to become an alchemy master, it is not enough to just rely on the step-by-step elixir prescriptions left by your predecessors. You must also be familiar with the characteristics and properties of various drugs.
A powerful alchemy master can not only refine high-quality elixirs according to the elixir recipe, but he can also modify the elixir recipe with his own understanding to refine the elixir he wants or the elixir that has never been seen before.
Therefore, it is easy to get started with the basics of alchemy, but the difficult part is the understanding and application of medicinal materials and heat.
"I don't know how talented this girl is in alchemy, but she is a loser in alchemy like me."
Xiao Xuan muttered secretly, his heart full of expectations.
What happened next did not disappoint Xiao Xuan.
After Zhinu refined and exploded several alchemy furnaces, Xiao Xuan was finally convinced that Zhinu's talent in the alchemy path was beyond words, and was even not as good as his own.
One word came true, and the success he was enjoying turned into nothing, leaving him dumbfounded.
If Xiao Xuan hadn't expected it and set up an isolation ban in the room in advance, Zhinu's shocking furnace explosion rate might have razed the entire inn to the ground.
"That's all, no matter how poor Zhinu's alchemy talent is, with her diligent character, she will definitely be able to learn the basics of alchemy, but it will take more time than others."
"But having said that, this girl is really tolerant. Exploding furnaces is really irritating, but she even blew up nearly ten furnaces without even complaining. She is really a stubborn... loser in alchemy."
Looking at Zhinu's pretty face that was reddened, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but sigh.
In this way, Xiao Xuan accompanied Zhinu to repeatedly practice alchemy in the room. During this period, he continued to talk about various alchemy experiences according to the basic alchemy techniques.
Unconsciously, Xiao Xuan's alchemy level improved a lot as Zhinu was unable to make any progress.
[Ding dong! The host successfully teaches the apprentice the way of alchemy (entry), and the reward is ten times the reward, and he gets the way of alchemy (familiarity)! 】
Time flew by, and soon Xiao Xuan and Zhinu stayed in the inn for seven full days. Finally, on this day, the long-awaited system prompt sounded.
[Sub-sect skills are divided by proficiency, and are divided into five levels: entry, proficiency, proficiency, mastery, and entry into the Tao.
】
[Alchemy (Proficient): The success rate of alchemy is 20%.
】
Listening to the system's explanation, Xiao Xuan suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
After these seven days of hard work, he already had a certain level of understanding of alchemy. Compared with the system's judgment, he had probably reached a level of proficiency. Now the system is equivalent to giving a repeated reward, which is simply worthless.
exist.
"I didn't expect that Zhinu's talent in swordsmanship is astonishing, and her talent in alchemy is so poor. If these seven days are used to teach her how to practice swordsmanship, the harvest should be more than this."
Thinking about it, Xiao Xuan sighed.
"Teach students in accordance with their aptitude. The ancients never deceived me."
