The fourth thousand three hundred and sixty-three chapters of the battle of magic
Through a series of treatments of medicines, the essence of them is fully sublimated, which is refining medicine.
People discover that medicines can be eaten, and they can tell which ones can be eaten and which ones cannot be eaten, and even what changes will occur after taking different medicines, which can be completed in almost the life span of an ordinary person.
However, the formation process of alchemy is extremely long. A conservative estimate is that it will take more than ten or dozens of generations of unremitting efforts and attempts.
The reason why it is said that the refining of medicines will take a very long time is because different types of medicines will produce new changes just by simply mixing them together. It is possible that the medicinal properties will be enhanced, or it may be two beneficial medicinal materials.
After mixing, it becomes poison.
If you study further, you will find that simply mixing two medicines will turn them into poisons. However, if the two medicines are specially treated and mixed again, they will turn into medicines that are beneficial to the body.
Simply mixing many medicinal materials together in different combinations is already an unimaginably huge number, not to mention adding various different refining methods, which makes the number even more terrifying, even
It's simply impossible to calculate.
Therefore, it only takes one generation to discover the characteristics of various plants themselves, but the art of refining medicine is still being explored by people to this day.
Of course, after the alchemy art develops to a certain stage and level, it will gradually start to slow down. This does not mean that people's desire to explore is not as good as before, nor does it mean that there are no extremely talented people who are willing to continue exploring.
In fact, on the contrary, people who are willing to study alchemy are not only becoming more and more persistent, but also have very high talents, and almost all of them have been cultivated since childhood.
So the real reason for the slowdown in medicine refining technology research is mainly due to human factors, or it may be said that there are different forces between groups of people.
Once there are sects and families, some things are no longer simple, especially in the research of alchemy, weapon refining and rune formations. The various forces and sects will never communicate with each other, let alone easily.
Present the results of your research to others.
Because our own force has studied a little more than other forces, it will be a key factor in determining the outcome of the future battle between the two forces.
Even if it is not just for fighting, some big forces and families rely on their own medicine refining technology and abilities. At least they do not want a new force to rise around them and have the same competitive methods as themselves.
Really like Zuo Feng, he first learned the method of mixing medicine from Zhuang Yu, and later learned the art of refining medicine from Yao Xun and Yao Tuozi. After all, he was still a minority among the minority.
And it was also because, no matter how talented Zuo Feng was, there was no power behind him. If there was a power behind Zuo Feng, even Yao Xun and Yao Tuozi, no matter how much they cherish talents, coupled with Zhuang Yu's relationship,
They will never teach anyone the art of refining medicine.
Although Zuo Feng has been learning alchemy since he was a child, after experiencing so much, his alchemy skills have unknowingly entered the ranks of high-level alchemists.
With his current level and strength, even if he is only in the bone refining stage and has a weak body, when he completes a potion mixture, the effect he can get is completely different from the original one.
In the eyes of people who don’t understand, mixing medicine means mixing several different medicines together after some processing, but in fact it is not that simple, because mixing medicine is originally the art of refining medicine, or the art of refining medicine.
It is derived from the transformation of mixing medicine.
People first discovered that the mixing of medicines could bring unexpected surprises, and then this mixing gradually formed the art of mixing medicines. The art of refining medicine was later studied by some alchemists through more systematic methods, and
A means of refining it using special utensils.
Although the art of refining medicine is produced by the transformation of mixed medicine, the art of refining medicine cannot simply be regarded as being superior to the art of mixing medicine.
In fact, in a very long time ago, there were two methods of mixing medicine and refining medicine in the world, which not only co-existed but also competed with each other. This is something that countless alchemists in later generations have never been able to understand.
In fact, it doesn't matter if they can't understand it. After all, the competition lasted for an unknown length of time and finally ended with the alchemy technique defeating the medicine mixing method.
Since then, the art of refining medicine has become very popular, while the method of mixing medicine has gradually declined, to the point that not many people have heard of it.
Zuo Feng is one of the few people who knows the history of the original battle between medicine mixing and alchemy refining. He is also one of the few who know the real reasons for the victory or defeat in that battle.
In fact, from the perspective of the time, the simple battle over magic was not as simple as it seemed. In fact, it was more affected by the environment and restricted by many objective factors.
In a certain period of time, the mixing method of medicine was also called "ancient medicine mixing method". Just by hearing this name and knowing a little about that period of time, people can roughly guess the situation at that time.
A long time ago, the medicinal materials growing throughout Kunxuan Continent were still called ancient medicines. The method of mixing medicines at that time was called "ancient medicine mixing method" by later generations, because it targeted ancient medicines.
However, with the changes of the times, for some reason ancient medicines gradually became scarce, while some medicinal materials with relatively large quantities and slightly weakened medicinal properties slowly began to grow on the Kunxuan Continent.
The many drugs that appeared later basically contain most of the medicinal properties of ancient drugs, but they are more numerous and have relatively more changes.
Alchemy also gradually came into being due to this change. Therefore, alchemy is better at refining a large number of drugs together, while mixing medicine is better at mixing rare drugs.
Therefore, the battle between the mixing method and the alchemy method more represents the battle between the conservative school and the innovative school. The result no longer represents the quality of the two methods, but only represents the final choice of the changing times.
New medicines gradually increased, and ancient medicines gradually became scarce. In the end, ancient medicines were almost hard to find on Kunxuan Continent. Instead, new medicines covered the entire Kunxuan Continent. Over time, ancient medicines slowly began to be forgotten, as if people also
I don’t remember any new medicines, because for most people, they are just medicinal materials, and there is no distinction between “new and ancient”.
Although the times have made choices, there are still people, or some forces, who have passed down the "ancient medicine mixed method" bit by bit, and are still moving forward with difficulty on this road with no hope.
.
The existence abandoned by the times is still preserved in the stubborn beliefs of some people. And some of these people are the ancestors of the medicine families of the Xuanwu Empire.
But later on, fewer and fewer people in the Yao family were willing to continue studying the "mixed methods of ancient medicine" because it was a choice with no hope or way out.
Only a few people among pharmacists have mastered the "ancient medicine mixing method", not because the pharmacists are unwilling to teach it, but because no one is willing to learn, let alone continue to research breakthrough methods.
Even the few people like Yaoxun and Yaotuozi are not willing to learn, but it is stipulated in the ancestral precepts that each direct lineage member of the Yao family must let one person learn the "Ancient Medicine Mixing Method", otherwise
In the future, members of this line of clan will not be allowed to learn the highest level of alchemy refining techniques of the Yao family, and the clan leaders of this line will not be qualified to become the head of the Yao family.
Only people like Zhuang Yu, who were born with no talent for cultivation and were very interested in medicine refining, taught the "ancient medicine mixing method" when they were young.
It's just that although such tribesmen have mastered the most ancient and pure "ancient medicine mixing method", they are limited by their lack of spiritual energy. Therefore, not only is it difficult to walk on the "ancient medicine mixing method", but there is also no new method.
breakthrough.
Therefore, when Zhuang Yu taught the "Ancient Medicine Mixing Method" to Zuo Feng, it actually contained her helplessness and sustenance. She hoped that this method, which had been almost forgotten by the world, would one day see the light of day again in Zuo Feng's hands and be rejuvenated.
light.
However, as Zuo Feng practiced all the way, especially after coming into contact with Yao Xun and Duan Yueyao from the Yao family, although Zuo Feng did not completely abandon the "ancient medicine mixing method", he had already focused almost all his energy on it.
The "method of refining new medicines" is here.
Until today, Zuo Feng was forced to use the "Ancient Medicine Mixing Method" again in this special space. He suddenly felt like seeing another world, as if he had re-understood the "Ancient Medicine Mixing Method".
"This skill.
What Zuo Feng used this time was not actually a "mixing of ancient medicines" in the true sense. It was substantially adjusted on the original basis, and it was a completely different form of "mixing medicines."
It was only at this time that the entire preparation of the medicine mixture was completed, and Zuo Feng suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling of surprise. If there were no accidents, Zuo Feng would only follow the original method and study the medicine mixing craft bit by bit. In this way, he would be equal to
It is to limit yourself to a circle.
Sometimes rules are there to avoid making mistakes, but at the same time rules will also restrict innovation. Now Zuo Feng is forced to break the rules because of changes in the external environment, so he is completely passive in innovating.
If it were purely based on the results of mixing the medicine, Zuo Feng should actually be grateful to the environment here and the bugs that were chasing him.
In order to be able to complete the mixing of medicines in the shortest time and at the same time make use of the special medicinal materials grown in this special space, Zuo Feng had to make huge adjustments to the original method of mixing medicines.
As the saying goes, "If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be successful." When the road cannot be seen, Zuo Feng chooses to force his way out.
It wasn't until those sharp-edged pieces of the mixed medicine that scratched the mouth and esophagus with blood dripping down into his belly that Zuo Feng's heart finally let go, because he knew the effect of his adjusted medicine mixture.
