When Jin Dafu heard that Yang Ji was going to buy the alchemy furnace and elixir, he immediately started to smile.
Yang Ji naturally knew what he was thinking, and a war of words immediately began, and the confrontation between the two quickly came to an end.
A low-grade alchemy furnace is called Sifang furnace.
There is a brilliance mirror polished from high-temperature resistant sky quartz on the front, back, left and right sides.
Sky crystal can absorb the high temperature of flames and increase the rate of elixir formation. You can also see the refining process of elixirs in the elixir furnace through its polished mirror.
If problems occur, they can be adjusted in time.
The Sifang Furnace is not bad, and it cost a thousand spiritual stones in total.
Yang Ji also purchased ten sets of elixirs that could be used to refine low-grade Linghua Pills, each worth two hundred spirit stones, for a total cost of two thousand.
Add the thousand spiritual stones from the alchemy furnace, and then deduct the thousand spiritual stones from Shui Xingzhou.
Yang Ji still has 3,650 spiritual stones on his body at this moment.
After everything was ready, Yang Ji followed Jin Dafu's guidance and walked alone to the cave in the mountain behind Wanbao Tower.
After walking for about a mile along a path paved with bluestones, Yang Ji arrived at the foot of a cliff.
There is a stone cave about ten feet high at the bottom, with red light looming inside, and the wind blowing out has a hint of heat.
There is obviously earth fire inside as Jin Dafu said.
Yang Ji looked happy and walked towards the cave.
As soon as he entered the cave entrance, he discovered a hollowed-out stone house on the right side of the stone wall.
There are simple furnishings inside. At the moment, there is a skinny old man sitting on the stone bench. His face is sallow. Judging from his appearance, he is about sixty years old. He has two messy beards with both ends slightly raised, as if he had been burnt by ground fire.
generally.
At this moment, he was holding a copy of "How to Become a Master of Alchemy" and reading it, his brows furrowed, obviously he had encountered some difficulty.
Vaguely, you can still hear the sound of gnashing teeth coming from his mouth.
"That boy from the river valley actually became a peak alchemist one step ahead of me. Damn it. I can't even do it. How could he do it? No, I will definitely do it."
This must be the Master of Fire Source mentioned by Mr. Jin. He seemed a little anxious and angry? Yang Ji's eyes flashed slightly and he looked at him lightly.
"who?"
Perhaps sensing the gaze he was looking at, Huo Yuan suddenly looked up. When he saw Yang Ji, whom he had never seen before, he immediately said angrily, "This is a forbidden area for alchemy. What are you doing here, little kid? Get out quickly!"
He exhaled two heavy breaths, stood up angrily, and waved his hands impatiently.
"I have met Master Huoyuan! I am the ship-controlling envoy of Wanbao Tower, and I have come to refine elixirs with the help of earthly fire." Yang Ji bowed his hand and smiled slightly.
"Suppressing the Ship?" Huo Yuan frowned and looked at Yang Ji.
Yang Ji knew that he was confused about this title that he had never heard of before, so he exaggeratedly described the identity and status of the Ship Controller.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Huoyuan's expression became a little more polite.
Although his anger subsided, he still kept a straight face, put his hands behind his back, and sneered: "You are a little kid who can't practice at ease, so why should you learn alchemy? Do you think everyone can become a noble high-level alchemist like me?"
Yang Ji saw his disdainful look and was not angry. Instead, he smiled calmly and said:
"The boy recognizes a few elixirs, so he wants to try them. What if he accidentally becomes an alchemist?"
"Hmph, after recognizing a few strains of elixir, I came up with such arrogant thoughts. Today's young people are really becoming more and more arrogant."
Huo Yuan raised his eyebrows, glanced sideways at Yang Ji, touched his storage bag, and immediately took out an elixir shaped like a flame, and said coldly, "Then let me ask you, what elixir is this?"
"This is the 43-year-old flame grass." Yang Ji said with a smile.
Huh? He wasn't surprised to recognize the flame grass, but he was surprised to see the exact year at a glance.
"Then what kind of elixir is this? How old is it?" Huoyuan touched the storage bag with his backhand and took out another green fruit elixir.
"This is the fifteen-year-old Qingming Fruit, which can be used to refine the Qingyuan Pill." Yang Ji said.
"Then what are these?" Huo Yuan frowned slightly, glanced at Yang Ji, and took out twenty-eight different elixirs in one breath.
"Fengling flowers of thirty-six years, sky green grass of twenty-eight years, Zhu Shalian of seventy-two years, silver horn leaves of fifty-three years..."
As Yang Ji accurately named the years and names of various elixirs, the sarcasm on Huo Yuan's face slowly faded away, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.
The young man in front of him actually told the exact year of various elixirs in one glance, which surprised him a little.
The most basic point in refining elixirs is to learn to identify the years of various elixirs. Only in this way can you know how much fire to melt the elixirs and how much potency to use when refining elixirs.
This is the basic skill of alchemy and the most important basic skill.
Some intermediate alchemists are still unable to directly tell the exact year of various elixirs with their eyesight. They still need to smell the smell and feel the aura contained in the elixirs with their hands to judge.
Even so, some alchemists are not as accurate as Yang Ji, so they always fail to adjust the heat when making alchemy.
The final adjustment was made based on the burning of several elixirs.
But in front of him, this kid who surprised him clearly had relatively solid basic skills.
Yang Ji saw "surprise" on the top of his head. It was funny. With the help of golden fingers, nothing could be hidden with one sweep.
Huo Yuan's expression flashed slightly, and he was a little reluctant to believe that the young boy in front of him had such solid skills. He immediately touched the storage bag and took out a box of elixir powder.
coldly said,
"How many elixirs are this powder made from? What year are they?"
"There are three kinds of elixirs here, namely Luo Yunguo from the 60th year, Snow Moon Flower from the 58th year, and Jueyancao from the 61st year." Yang Ji said with a slight smile.
"Wrong! There is clearly no Luo Yun fruit here, but a similar Purple Luo fruit. In addition, the year of Xueyuehua is not correct, it is only the forty-sixth year." Huo Yuan scolded in a low voice.
"Oh?" Yang Ji's expression flashed slightly, then he smiled and said, "Then it seems that the boy got it wrong."
"Humph, you little kid is quite capable, but you still have a lot to learn, and you have to be humble and motivated." Huoyuan put his hands behind his back and had a straight face, like an old scholar.
"Young man has just come into contact with alchemy. There is still a lot to learn. I will ask my seniors to give me some advice in the future."
Yang Ji smiled slightly, bowed his hands and said, "So...can you go in now?"
"Well, let's go in." Huoyuan waved his hand.
Looking at Yang Ji's back, he couldn't help but frown deeply, and murmured, "This guy has such a strong eyesight, he got everything right."
"The basic skills are quite strong. I wonder how his alchemy skills are?"
Huo Yuan's little eyes flickered. At this moment, he looked like a big rat that had grown into a spirit. He immediately followed him quietly.
