Li Yu put away the ten hemostatic pills that he had refined, and thought to himself, low-level pills are low-level pills, and they can be refined even if the mind wanders. When he walked out of the alchemy room, he vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't explain the details.
.
It wasn't until he returned to the small courtyard and sat on the stone bench that Li Yu carefully recalled the steps of making alchemy that he finally figured out what was wrong.
When the mind is distracted, the magic power runs smoothly and the elixir is refined, which seems understandable.
But separating liquids and condensing elixirs, turning them into solid round elixirs, is not something that can be done by a distracted mind.
Without active mana control, the elixir will not take shape on its own.
Or is it that he has practiced so many times in the past month that he has formed muscle memory and completed it all without even realizing it?
"boom……"
When Li Yu was thinking about this matter, there was suddenly a faint muffled sound in his ears, and the ground under his feet shook slightly. He turned his head to look at another yard and walked outside.
Not long after, Wu Tong limped out of it.
His hair was disheveled and his face was gray. He was holding a pill furnace broken into three pieces in his arms, and his clothes were in tatters. Li Yu looked at him in shock and asked, "Did the furnace explode?"
Wu Tong said with a mournful face: "I made the Hemostasis Pill in one go. I originally wanted to try to make a Qi Restoration Pill, but I didn't expect..., well, if I hadn't carried a Vajra Talisman with me, I wouldn't be here today.
I’m afraid I’ll tell you here…”
Not long after, there was a hall somewhere in Danding Peak.
The old man surnamed Han Zhuji pointed at Wu Tong's nose and said angrily: "Are you a pig-brained person? What grade is the Hemostasis Pill? What grade is the Qi Restoration Pill? You are a little alchemy apprentice who hasn't even learned to walk yet, so you want to
It took off, how come the furnace didn’t kill you..."
The old man surnamed Han was very angry. He didn’t know how this idiot got the material for the Rejuvenation Pill. These brats really don’t know how high the sky is. If something happens to them, he, as the deacon and elder in charge of them, will have to bear a certain responsibility.
responsibility.
The deacon disciple surnamed Zhao also shook his head when he heard this. The Hemostasis Pill is just a low-grade elixir, but the Qi Recovery Pill is a real first-class elixir. If he can successfully refine it, he can take the first-class alchemist examination.
He has been at Alchemy Peak for more than ten years and is still just an apprentice. Elder Han is more than a hundred years old and has always been at the first level. He has never passed the second-level alchemy master examination. These new disciples are too ambitious...
The old man surnamed Han pointed at Wu Tong and said: "Go to the confinement room yourself and stay in confinement for seven days. Next time, you will be expelled from Danding Peak!"
Wu Tong was taken away dejectedly. The old man surnamed Han sat back in his chair, took a sip of tea, and calmed down a little. When he looked at Li Yu, his attitude became much better and asked: "What's the matter with you?"
Li Yudao: "I have successfully refined the hemostasis pill. Could you please help me, Elder Han, to take a look?"
Elder Han nodded and said with approval: "Yes, although it is just a low-quality elixir, it was successfully refined on the first day. It shows that you have been observing carefully this month. Where is the elixir you refined? Take
Come and take a look, I can help you with some pointers..."
Li Yu took out a jade bottle from his arms, opened the lid, and poured out a pill inside.
To be on the safe side, he only brought one pill.
Elder Han just sniffed it and said with some surprise: "Yes, the fragrance of the elixir is so strong, the quality of the elixir should not be too bad. It is your first time to refine elixirs, and it is already very good to be able to refine it to this level.
"
Li Yu handed the hemostatic pill to Elder Han.
Elder Han took a sip of tea and took it casually. He glanced at the dark red pill and saw five lines of pill lines looming.
"puff……"
Elder Han's eyes suddenly widened, he spurted out a mouthful of tea, and stood up from his chair.
Li Yu was a little stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively: "Elder Han, is there something wrong with my elixir?"
Han Tiancheng looked at the hemostatic pill with five pill patterns in his hand, looked at Li Yu in disbelief, and asked, "Did you refine this pill?"
Li Yu nodded and said, "Yes, it's freshly baked and still warm."
The elixir in his hand did still have some residual warmth, so there was no need for Li Yu to lie to him. Elder Han looked at Li Yu again with a very strange expression, as if he was looking at some monster.
The first time I refined elixir, I actually made the best elixir. This was not just a matter of luck.
What kind of monster is this kid, and what kind of talent for alchemy is this?
The same kind of elixir is also divided into grades.
Medicinal pills without elixir patterns are usually called waste elixirs. Waste elixirs contain too many impurities and have no medicinal effect. Taking them is very harmful to the human body.
The elixir with a single elixir pattern is called a low-grade elixir. It already has about 30% of the medicinal effect. Taking it will cause certain harm to the human body. If there is no better choice, you can still take it reluctantly.
The two elixir patterns are middle-grade elixirs with about 50% efficacy. Although they also contain erysipelas, they are within the tolerable range.
Three Pill Patterns, a top-grade elixir, has about 70% efficacy and very little erysipelas, so you can take it with confidence.
Four lines of elixir, a super-grade elixir, has 90% efficacy, and the erysipelas can be ignored. It is the dream love elixir that all alchemists dream of, but it is rare to find it. A master who can refine super-grade elixirs
Alchemists of every level have an extremely high status in the sect.
The Five Pill Patterns are also known as the best elixirs. There is no impurity in the elixir, and the efficacy even exceeds the theoretical efficacy given by the elixir. It is the highest state of alchemy. Every top-quality elixir has a great impact on the alchemist.
To me, it is not only a medicine, but also a work of art.
Han Tiancheng was able to refine the hemostatic pill a hundred years ago. With his current knowledge of alchemy, he can at worst refine a top-grade hemostatic pill. If he is lucky, he will occasionally get a super-grade one, maybe one out of ten furnaces.
The probability of furnace...
As for the top-quality elixir with five elixir patterns, to be honest, he couldn't refine it.
Refining the best elixir requires not only talent, but also a certain amount of luck. Even a high-level alchemist may not be able to refine a low-level elixir.
This is not to say that alchemy apprentices will never be able to refine the best elixirs, but the alchemy geniuses who can do this are all the seeds of the sect. The future alchemy masters have been trained by the sect with large resources since they were young.
…
For a new alchemy apprentice to be able to produce such an elixir, it was really embarrassing for him.
Seeing that Elder Han was silent for a long time, Li Yu was unsure for a moment and whispered: "Elder Han?"
Elder Han came back to his senses, coughed slightly, and said: "Very good, not bad, you refined this kind of elixir for the first time. Your elixir talent is higher than I thought..."
He was present when Baiyunguan disciples were selected, and he remembered at this moment that Li Yu had practiced three spiritual veins, which seemed to be fire, wood, and water. The combination of these three spiritual veins gave him a unique advantage in alchemy.
If he guessed correctly, Li Yu's soul was far more powerful than ordinary Qi refining disciples. With all the factors added up, it might not be impossible to produce the best elixir.
Being able to refine low-level elixirs to this extent...
This kid is really a fucking talent...
However, the best hemostatic pill is still a low-level pill.
Han Tiancheng looked at Li Yu's handsome face and sighed secretly in his heart, feeling sorry for him.
Such a genius is a natural master of alchemy, but it is a pity that his talent is too poor. For an alchemist, the ability to make alchemy is important, but cultivation is also indispensable.
With your cultivation in the Qi refining period, you will never be able to refine second-level elixirs.
And with his talent, the most he can do in this life is Golden elixir. Third-grade alchemists in the Golden elixir stage are certainly popular outside, but Kunlun never lacks alchemy talents. There are countless third-grade alchemists in the sect. One more than him is not enough, and one without him is not enough.
Not one less.
His advantage lies in his three spiritual meridians. If he cultivates all three spiritual meridians, he will definitely not be able to reach the golden elixir. If he only cultivates one, then there will be no difference between him and other alchemists, and he will be incomparable to everyone else.
Because of his three spiritual veins, the way to break through with the aid of pills was almost blocked.
After all, he is not one of those geniuses, and the sect will not waste a lot of resources on him.
Elder Han admired Li Yu very much. He put away the elixir in his hand and said, "Just leave this elixir to me as a souvenir. Even if you have completed the elixir refining task this month,
.”
Bleeding pills are nothing to him, but the best hemostatic pills are rare to find. They are like the most perfect works of art. For him, who is only a first-level alchemist, they are still valuable for collection.
He didn't take Li Yu's things for nothing. He walked back to a stone room with his hands behind his back. When he came out, he handed a medium-thin booklet to Li Yu and said, "This is some of my experience in alchemy over the years. You can
After reading it, remember to return it to me."
Although Elder Han is only a first-grade alchemist, he has already touched the threshold of a second-grade alchemist. His alchemy experience is of great reference significance for Li Yu, who has just come into contact with this method, and can help him avoid many detours.
Li Yu took it with both hands and expressed gratitude from the bottom of his heart: "Thank you, Elder Han..."
