Chapter 50: The left hand draws a circle and the right hand draws a square
When it comes to martial arts training, Ye Yuan might be a bit modest.
But when it came to alchemy, Ye Yuan really didn't know how to be humble.
It can be said that Ye Yuan has been dealing with alchemy all his life and is very familiar with medicinal materials and elixirs.
That sense of familiarity is embedded in his soul. Even if he changes his body, that sense of familiarity that comes from his soul can still drive his entire body to make the most appropriate actions.
Ye Yuan originally wanted to keep a low profile, but as soon as he encountered those medicinal materials, he couldn't help but complete the process of preparing the medicine and refining the medicinal embryos.
Others may be wary of the weight of the medicinal materials and dare not make any omissions, but as long as Ye Yuan grabs it, the weight of the medicinal materials will be exactly the same.
That is the ability brought about by hundreds of millions of operations, and no one can imitate it.
Feng Ruoqing stared at Ye Yuan blankly, not knowing what to say.
Is refining a first-level elixir just...so simple?
"You...you can do it yourself, I...I'll go to the quiet room and enter meditation!" After saying that, Feng Ruoqing turned around and entered the quiet room again.
It took two hours to enter samadhi, which was much longer than originally planned.
Feng Ruoqing was a little confused and couldn't get into meditation for an unknown period of time. It wasn't until an hour later that she reluctantly got rid of distracting thoughts and entered a state of emptiness and clarity.
After coming out of the quiet room, Feng Ruoqing regained her cold attitude, came to the red lotus cauldron, and said calmly: "Bring the medicine embryos here, open the furnace, and make the elixir!"
Ye Yuan did not waste these two hours and kept meditating and practicing.
Compared with his previous life, Ye Yuan is much more diligent now.
Ye Yuan, who has achieved Alchemy Emperor, knows that there is no shortcut to cultivation, no matter how talented you are, you can only work hard and work hard.
After listening to Feng Ruoqing's instructions, Ye Yuan took two jade vessels containing medicinal embryos and handed them to her, and then prepared to start the fire.
Feng Ruoqing glanced at Ye Yuan in surprise. She was originally going to tell Ye Yuan to do something, but unexpectedly, Ye Yuan started doing what the assistant had to do with ease.
The alchemy room of Danwu Academy is built on the earth's veins, guiding the earth's fire to refine elixirs.
This method of alchemy is only applicable at low levels. High-level elixirs must use the fire source of heaven and earth. However, Ye Yuan is not unfamiliar with this method of alchemy.
Open the fire valve, blazing flames emerge from the ground, and the temperature in the alchemy room rises suddenly.
Although earth fire is not as good as the fire source of heaven and earth, it is still extraordinary among ordinary fires. It is more than enough to use it to refine first-level elixirs.
Ye Yuan quickly made a seal with his hands, and then gently moved it on the flame. The flame immediately became as docile as a good baby.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Yuan opened his hands and shouted softly: "Ding!"
The ground fire automatically split into two halves, burning both sides of the Red Lotus Stove evenly.
Feng Ruoqing looked at this scene with a flash of surprise in her eyes again.
She has never heard of this method of controlling fire!
The ground fire was so violent that the academy added layers of formations to it so that it could be used for its own purposes.
Even so, this flame cannot be easily controlled by the average fourth level of vitality.
But in front of Ye Yuan, this Earth Fire was like a pet he kept at home. He didn't dare to stand even if he lay on his stomach.
But now that the alchemy process had begun, Feng Ruoqing couldn't care less about her surprise and quickly calmed down.
Feng Ruoqing made a secret with one hand and pointed at the red lotus stove, and the stove lid flew out automatically.
With a move from her other hand, two medicine embryos flew into the alchemy furnace through the air.
"Yin-Yang Diversion Technique! Start!"
Feng Ruoqing shouted softly, and her two jade hands moved like phantoms.
Now that Ye Yuan had nothing to do, he had enough time to watch Feng Ruoqing constantly changing the seals and refining the medicine embryos, and couldn't help but nod slightly.
This woman is somewhat skilled, and she seems to have put a lot of effort into the yin-yang diversion technique.
However, she had not fully mastered the yin-yang diversion technique, so she was a little reluctant to perform it at this time. It seemed that the potion of elixir was useless.
Yin-yang diversion technique is not so easy to master. During the refining process, the alchemist needs to do two things at once, activating the yang seal formula with one hand and the negative seal formula with the other hand, and they must do it simultaneously without making any mistakes.
Any omission in the middle will cause the elixir to become useless.
This is a very high test for the alchemist's mental strength, soul power and familiarity with the seals.
Feng Ruoqing did well at the beginning, but in the middle stage of refining, she was obviously unable to cope with it. Fine beads of sweat began to appear on her forehead, and she looked quite strenuous.
There was a "pop" sound, and a burst of black smoke came.
The elixir is useless...
Feng Ruoqing was so angry that she stamped her feet and shouted to Ye Yuan: "Come again!"
Ye Yuan glanced at Feng Ruoqing, but said nothing and went directly to prepare the medicine.
This time Feng Ruoqing finally saw how Ye Yuan prepared the medicine, and then she was speechless.
Ye Yuan grabbed a handful of this medicinal material, a handful of that medicinal material, and then put them all into jade vessels and crushed them. It seemed extremely irresponsible.
But Feng Ruoqing couldn't curse, because she knew that the quality and accuracy of the medicine embryos extracted by Ye Yuan were much better than those she made herself.
How did this guy do it? Could his hand be a measuring device? How did he know that so many medicinal materials were needed?
Ye Yuan's prescription was too casual...
Seeing Feng Ruoqing's eyes, Ye Yuan coughed dryly and said with an embarrassed smile: "This... family background, you also know that my father is a great alchemist, he was forced to do it since he was a child, hehe...hehe."
Feng Ruoqing glared at Ye Yuan fiercely. It would be weird to believe you!
But she also knew that it was impossible for Ye Yuan to tell her the truth, and asking would be in vain.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Ye Yuan prepared the medicine embryo again.
Feng Ruoqing swallowed a second-level Qi Restoration Pill, meditated for a while, and her energy was almost restored.
Seeing this scene, Ye Yuan secretly smacked his tongue, what is the origin of Feng Ruoqing?
The second-level Qi Restoration Pill is naturally nothing in Ye Yuan's eyes, but it is not a common commodity in the Qin State and is very expensive.
Feng Ruoqing took one out and swallowed it without blinking.
There is also the Red Lotus Cauldron, which is definitely considered the top medicinal cauldron in the Qin State and cannot be obtained by ordinary people.
It seems that Teacher Feng has a very strong backing behind him!
The second time I practiced the yin-yang diversion technique, it naturally ended in failure.
Then the third and fourth time, none of them succeeded.
Basically, at the later stage of elixir refining, the medicinal embryo will turn into a puff of black smoke and become a useless elixir.
Feng Ruoqing is getting more and more frustrated, and she actually knows that the reason why she can survive to the later stage is because of the medicine embryos and fire control refined by Ye Yuan, otherwise she may not even be able to survive the later stage!
How on earth is this damn yin-yang diversion technique accomplished?
"Come again!" Although there was a second-level Qi Restoration Pill to restore Yuan Power, Feng Ruoqing could no longer withstand such an intensity of pill refining in one day.
Ye Yuan glanced at Feng Ruoqing again, feeling a little tangled in his heart.
"What are you looking at? You haven't gone to prepare the medicine yet!" Feng Ruoqing said angrily.
Ye Yuan did not go to prepare the medicine, but sighed, walked to the table and picked up a piece of paper and two pens.
Feng Ruoqing was a little curious about what Ye Yuan was doing with pen and paper, so she followed him.
But I saw Ye Yuan holding a pen in each hand, and then drew two shapes on the paper simultaneously with both hands. The left hand drew a circle, and the right hand drew a square.
"Stop practicing. It's impossible for you to succeed if you practice like this. Let's talk about it after you've mastered this."
After speaking, Ye Yuan handed the two pens to Feng Ruoqing.
