Qiao Wangyou demonstrated the power of refining medicine.
Then she threw three dollops of medicinal liquid into the alchemy furnace, and divided more than ten kinds of auxiliary materials into seven parts of different sizes, each of which was blended with different energy.
As the alchemy furnace gradually heats up, the medicine balls made from these auxiliary materials will be thrown into the alchemy furnace in order from small to large.
The entire alchemy process lasts approximately three hours.
But keep an eye on the whole process.
Until the medicinal power is fully absorbed.
Once you make a wrong step, you will be refining useless elixirs.
"That's about it." Qiao Wangyou stared at the newly opened alchemy furnace, and the scorching high temperature began to permeate the furnace: "The easiest thing to make is to miss the moment of melting the elixir, so you must concentrate. Do you want to try it? Really
It’s not difficult.”
This is not a difficult elixir, but Nie Nanyan asked Qiao Wangyou to practice it until he was sure that he would never make any mistakes again.
This is more like a grind.
After Fang Mu confirmed all the processes, he started cooking for the first time in his life... Oh, no, it was alchemy making.
"Let me try." Fang Mu began to process more than ten kinds of auxiliary materials.
It's not difficult.
These auxiliary herbs are very common.
There is no excessive demonic power.
It's easy to handle.
The most difficult thing is probably to use Yuan Li to condense the Dan Fire.
Fang Mu tried to release his energy and began to condense the elixir fire according to a specific flow method.
He thought it would be more difficult.
Unexpectedly, he succeeded on the first try.
A ball of flame-like energy rose up in his palm.
There is no scorching heat.
But throwing herbs into it can quickly smelt them, completely burning the impurities, leaving the purest medicinal liquid. The stronger the Yuanli, the purer the medicinal liquid will be.
"Succeeded?" Fang Mu hesitated.
Qiao Wangyou smiled and said: "It's true, I said you are very talented in alchemy. You succeeded in condensing the alchemy fire for the first time. This is rare."
"Is it......"
Fang Mu gently moved his fingers, and the alchemy fire jumped and flowed like life. It was very simple and easy, as if it had been used countless times.
He suddenly understood.
Although it is the elixir fire condensed by Yuan Li.
But the real test is control ability.
Fang Mu has been practicing the "Water Control Technique" for two months, and his ability to control Yuanli has already reached a very high level, so small skills like Judanhuo are not difficult for him at all.
After smelting the medicine, Fang Mu followed Qiao Wangyou's example and triggered the earth fire.
Although the temperature of firewood is enough for basic elixirs.
But the alchemy hall will naturally not use such an inefficient method. Each alchemy room is equipped with a formation to induce the earth fire. It only takes a little energy to induce the earth fire.
This is also the reason why the inside of the Dantang is so hot.
"boom!"
The moment when the fire started.
The alchemy furnace made a banging sound.
It was blown up more than half a meter, and then hit hard again.
White smoke billows.
"Ahem, cough, cough, what's going on?" Fang Mu was puzzled. He obviously used the same method as Qiao Wangyou.
Qiao Wangyou saw the reason at a glance: "The humidity in the alchemy furnace is too high. This will happen if the temperature of the ground fire rises too high all at once. You need to heat it more slowly."
"That's it..."
Fang Mu nodded and continued trying.
This time the ground fire was successfully drawn out.
Fang Mu carefully sent three balls of medicinal liquid into the alchemy furnace.
呲呲~~
There was a strange sound coming from the alchemy furnace.
"What's going on?" Fang Mu became nervous.
Qiao Wangyou said: "Don't be afraid, there is some conflict in the medicinal power. You have to rely on your own control and use your Yuan Power to sort out the medicinal power. You must be slow and let them merge slowly."
That's what beginners are like.
Normally it only takes three hours.
But beginners may not be able to make it well in a whole day.
Because each link will consume a lot of time.
Qiao Wangyou didn't regard Fang Mu as a henchman at all, but gave his best advice and spoke out the skills taught to him by Sister Nan Yan without any reservation.
"The liquid medicine needs to be integrated in three stages. There is no specific time, you have to control it yourself."
"Oops, the fire is getting louder again and the temperature is too high."
"No, no, the fusion is wrong, and the elixir is almost useless. Different medicinal liquids have different properties. You cannot forcefully soften them together. They must be treated separately."
"Even ordinary materials have their own attributes and should not be treated lightly."
"Don't be in a daze, the medicinal power is too much!!!"
When it came to alchemy, Qiao Wangyou found the field he was most familiar with.
She became very serious.
All the usual cuteness has faded away.
The control of every step is very strict.
boom!
There was a muffled sound in the alchemy furnace, followed by curls of black smoke.
Failed.
All that was left in the alchemy furnace was a mess of medicinal dregs filled with medicinal fragrance.
Fang Mu scratched his head: "It seems quite difficult."
Only when you really get started do you realize that there are so many things that need to be controlled.
If you make a slight mistake, you will fail.
No wonder the elixir is so precious.
"Novices are like this. It's impossible for anyone to succeed in refining it from the beginning." Qiao Wangyou didn't seem to care. Even she often failed in the beginning of learning.
Fang Mu was a little worried: "These materials are very expensive, right? I don't have to pay compensation if I fail, right?"
"No, there will naturally be losses in elixir refining. If you can refine three or four elixirs with ten ingredients, it is considered very good."
"But isn't your success rate very high? Other alchemists must have higher success rates, and it is unlikely that they will suffer such a big loss."
Fang Mu was confused.
Qiao Wangyou's refining of the evil-dispelling elixir seemed so easy.
"Yes." Qiao Wangyou said: "But other alchemists are very busy, busy refining better elixirs. This basic elixir is for novices to refine."
"..."
Fang Mu opened his mouth and smiled helplessly.
There's really nothing to blame.
For alchemists, the pursuit is naturally to refine better elixirs. What's the point of wasting time on elixirs that are absolutely successful?
Therefore, basic elixirs such as Body Tempering Pill, Marrow Cleansing Pill, and Evil Expelling Pill are used every year.
In fact, most of them are given to alchemy apprentices to refine.
Those who show talent in alchemy will be retained.
Unless they really can't find any good seeds, those powerful alchemists will take action and waste some time refining basic elixirs for the academy.
"Then I'll try again." Fang Mu was eager to try, feeling the fun of refining alchemy.
Since there is some loss, it doesn't matter.
Then you can make elixirs with confidence.
Qiao Wangyou nodded and started refining the elixir by himself.
Time passed little by little.
Soon, half the day flew by.
Night falls.
Qiao Wangyou yawned, and two evil-dispelling pills were placed in front of her. The medicinal fragrance was rich, accompanied by a faint floral fragrance, which made her feel relaxed and happy.
"I'm so sleepy. I've finished practicing two copies, but I'm still missing one today." Qiao Wangyou looked at Fang Mu in confusion.
Fang Mu is still studying hard.
But it has failed four times.
This is the fifth time.
He is working very hard to control the heat and seize every opportunity.
"Just leave one more piece to me!" Fang Mu said confidently.
Qiao Wangyou rubbed his heavy eyelids and muttered, "Thank you for your trouble, I'll go to bed first."
