Chapter 77 Alchemy

For the current Liu Ming, this dagger cannot exert its true power due to limitations in his cultivation. The sixteen levels of prohibitions attached to it are considered good if it can activate three or four levels now.

But even so, as long as this sword is sacrificed and refined, it can change in size as desired, and it can also activate the restrictions attached to it. Its power is not comparable to that of so-called talismans.

After Liu Ming thought about it, he immediately threw the sword in front of him, and it was suspended in the void. He kept making seals in his hands. At the same time, he continued to mutter words in his mouth, and balls of essence kept spraying on the dagger, which was quickly moved by it.

Inhaling it makes it become more and more cold and luminous.

However, the difficulty of refining this dagger was far beyond Liu Ming's previous expectations.

I don't know if his current cultivation level is really low compared to this middle-grade spiritual sword, or if the spiritual weapon sacrifice is not easy in the first place.

It took him seven days to refine the first level of restriction on the flying sword, the second level took half a month, and the third level of restriction took two full months to barely achieve.

To the point where it can be mobilized.

As for the fourth level of prohibition, after practicing for several days without seeing any movement, he realized that it was not something he could refine now. Most of the time, he would have to wait until his cultivation reached the Great Perfection state of the late spiritual disciple before he could have some hope.

.

In the past three months, the mysterious bubble still showed no sign of happening.

This made Liu Ming feel a little scared in his heart, so he simply felt relieved and began to study the basic alchemy book he bought from Weizhou Fangshi.

After all, after he reached the late spiritual disciple stage, the price of elixirs to increase his mana suddenly became much more expensive than those he had taken before, and the types became much rarer. Therefore, just taking low-grade elixirs was far from enough to increase his mana.

Pushed to the later stage of Dzogchen.

Therefore, he now has certain requirements for the quality of elixirs.

If he waits until he reaches the realm of a spiritual master, the requirements for elixirs to increase his mana will only become more stringent. Even later, he may not be able to purchase satisfactory elixirs with spiritual stones alone.

In this case, Liu Ming naturally hopes that the sooner he can master alchemy, the better.

This encyclopedia of alchemy may seem simple, but it actually introduces the basic knowledge of elixirs and some common techniques for alchemy.

According to what was said above, it is best for an alchemist to be a practitioner who is proficient in fire or wood attributes. Of course, it would be even better if he could possess the legendary spiritual flame.

At the beginning, it was easy to learn alchemy. After all, its essence is the process of breaking down and reorganizing some medicinal materials, and then using high temperatures to condense them into elixirs. Anyone who is not too stupid can easily learn the general process.

The only problem is that learning it does not mean that you can actually refine the elixir.

After all, the successful refining of each elixir must test the alchemist's ability to control various aspects such as material preparation, temperature control, and the time for the elixir to be released.

Even a slight deviation in one of them can cause the entire refining process to fail.

However, most of these things cannot be taught in words or deeds, and can only be truly mastered by individuals through more practice.

Therefore, no matter how brilliant the alchemist is, he will never dare to say that he is 100% successful when it comes to refining the simplest elixir.

As for those newbies who have just come into contact with alchemy, even if they refine the simplest elixirs, the elixir yield rate will be appallingly low.

It is a common thing for newcomers to refine even a single elixir after hundreds of refining attempts.

As for the refining of mid-to-high-level elixirs, because the elixir recipes are more complex and the materials used are more scarce, there is no practice at all during refining. Most of them can only rely on the alchemist's previous experience with elixirs.

The requirements for alchemists are naturally higher.

However, a true alchemist cannot emerge without repeated practice and the accumulation of massive resources.

This naturally resulted in the scarcity of alchemy masters in the entire cultivation world. It can even be said that only those truly powerful sects can cultivate real mid- to high-level alchemy masters.

The top alchemist of the Poison Spirit lineage in the Barbarian Ghost Sect is barely a mid-level alchemist. But just like that, his status in the sect is completely different from other spiritual masters. No one can

Don't dare to offend easily.

After reading the entire basic alchemy book, Liu Ming suddenly felt eager to give it a try. After a little hesitation, he selected the most commonly used elixir, Bigu Pill, from the basic elixir prescriptions attached at the back.

After studying it carefully, he took out a set of alchemy equipment and some materials, and began to seriously try to grind and mix them...

Five days later, a muffled sound of "bang" came from the training room, and a plume of black smoke came out of the white cauldron that was burning fiercely with a ball of flames in front of Liu Ming, and there was a faint smell of burning.

out.

Liu Ming's face darkened when he saw this, but he still dispersed the spell in his hand, and the flames around the cauldron suddenly dissipated out of thin air.

This is already the dozens of times he has failed to refine the elixir, but he has not been able to refine even one Bigu elixir.

Although the classics have long stated that this is a normal thing for newcomers who have just started to learn the art of alchemy.

But Liu Mingzhen was still severely hit by this situation. He went from being very excited at the beginning to being extremely depressed now.

What's more important is that he has consumed almost half of the related alchemy materials he originally purchased.

This made him feel distressed, so he still stopped practicing alchemy. He planned to look for opportunities to read more alchemy books from the sect in the future, or directly ask an alchemist in the sect for advice before considering starting the furnace again.

The problem of alchemy.

Therefore, in the following period, when there was no pill to take, Liu Ming could only use his talent to practice the Nether Bone Art slowly.

Time passed by little by little, and three months passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, nothing unusual happened. Even Liu Ming was a little uneasy, wondering whether the mysterious bubble had disappeared from the body.

But that day, while he was practicing, he suddenly felt the spiritual sea tremble, and a devouring force immediately rolled out from it.

After a gap of a year, the mysterious bubble finally appeared.

Liu Ming was startled, and without hesitation, he attacked the White Bone Scorpion first. After a brief communication with the psychic technique, he began to desperately use the Nether Bone Art to control the mana in his body.

The devouring this time was indeed more violent than the last time. If Liu Ming hadn't advanced to the spiritual disciple stage and his mana increased three to four times, he would have been sucked to death in a matter of seconds.

But even so, the mana in Liu Ming's body was sucked in by the bubbles nearly ten times, and he stopped swallowing with satisfaction.

During this period, Liu Ming no longer felt that his longevity was being stripped away, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when the bubbles in his body burst, Liu Ming's eyes darkened and he appeared in the gray space again.

It's the same space, but it's obviously much larger than before, with a radius of more than thirty feet.

Appearing together with Liu Ming, there was naturally the white bone scorpion whose mind was linked to it.

This ghost was obviously a little stunned by the fact that it appeared in another place, but immediately found that it seemed to have some impression of this place, and immediately started crawling around excitedly.

Liu Ming didn't ask much about the Bone Scorpion, but after letting out a breath, his expression relaxed slightly.

It seems that although the mysterious bubble swallows mana more violently each time, the time between its appearance seems to be correspondingly longer, which is good news for it.

If we judge that this interval is almost twice as long as the previous interval, there should be a buffer time of two years for the next outbreak of the mysterious bubble.

Of course, this is just what he takes for granted. Whether it really took such a long time is another matter.

He would at least need the mysterious bubble to appear a few more times before he could truly understand the pattern of its appearance.

After Liu Ming thought about it silently for a while, he already made the secret in his hand and was ready to start practicing the fire bullet technique that he had already mastered.



Half a year later, a giant fireball with a diameter of more than three feet was slowly spinning in Liu Ming's hands. After shaking his arms, it flew out to the opposite side with a whistling sound.

After a "boom" sound, a nearly mushroom-shaped black-red red cloud suddenly rose into the sky from the opposite fog wall, causing the entire space to tremble slightly.

A look of satisfaction appeared on Liu Ming's face, and at the same time, a red symbol in his head flashed and disappeared.

Of course, the giant fireball just now was not an ordinary fireball, but the superposition of several fireballs to achieve such terrifying power.

Although they are both low-level spells, after the Fire Ball Technique has been cultivated to the Great Perfection state, the most increased power is the power of destruction, and its power is far from comparable to that of the Wind Blade Technique.

Liu Ming sat down on the ground, preparing to recover the mental energy he had previously consumed.

However, when he glanced at it, he saw the White Bone Scorpion stabbing a nearby fog wall not far away with its tail hook.

The black tail hook, which was already as fast as lightning, now transformed into several identical black shadows under the urging of the White Bone Scorpion. At the same time, the faintly visible black thorns at the front made a screeching sound. Endless.

Liu Ming smiled slightly when he saw this.

Since he deliberately brought this bone scorpion into this space, he not only wanted to have a living creature to accompany him for too long, but also planned to train it on the way.

Since he can improve his spell proficiency in this space, White Bone Scorpion can naturally do the same thing.

But now it seems that his idea is correct. While the Skull Scorpion kept practicing its tail hook, its assassination movement was two to three minutes faster than half a year ago.

Don’t underestimate these two or three points!

The tail hook assassination was originally the fastest and most powerful attack method of this scorpion. Now with the improvement, the destructive power has almost doubled immediately.

In this way, he naturally felt more at ease and allowed Bone Scorpion to continue practicing.

After Liu Ming rested for a while, he began to think about what kind of magic he should practice next. Water Arrow Technique was incomparable to Fire Bomb Technique and Wind Blade Technique in terms of power and release speed. Naturally, he did not intend to waste time on it.

In this way, he naturally considered the other higher-level spells he had newly learned.
