Gu Qing took it, scanned it with his spiritual consciousness, and began to study it carefully.
At this time, Sect Master Zhao greatly appreciated Elder Cui's patience and meticulousness, and ordered Elder Cui to continue teaching, and he returned to the Medicine Sect's main hall.
As soon as Sect Leader Zhao left, Elder Cui, the alchemy master, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and began to squint his eyes to rest his mind, no longer paying attention to Gu Qing.
After Gu Qing studied the fire control technique, he tried to control the furnace fire. After several trials, he gradually became proficient.
"Elder Cui, can we put in the first product of the main medicinal material Huishen Grass?"
Elder Cui casually threw him a few jade slips and said lazily: "These jade slips are an introduction to alchemy. You can study it yourself and don't disturb my retreat."
Gu Qing was slightly startled, then looked at Elder Cui's careless look, and suddenly realized that as soon as the sect master left, this old guy seemed to be a new person, and he was not too lazy to teach him the art of alchemy.
Gu Qing cursed secretly, but he had no choice but to study the jade slips of alchemy one by one. He simply stopped asking Elder Cui for advice and started to pour medicine into the bronze furnace by himself.
Everything went very smoothly at first. When it came time to condense the elixir, Gu Qing put in the auxiliary ingredient honeysuckle to allow the elixir to take shape.
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound and the bronze furnace exploded!
Gu Qing looked at the pieces of the bronze furnace spinning on the ground and was stunned for a long time.
Looking back at Elder Cui who had closed his eyes to rest, he saw that the old guy had no reaction at all. He seemed not to be surprised at all when Gu Qing's first alchemy exploded.
Gu Qing was not discouraged. With a wave of his sleeves, the strong wind swept away the fragments of the alchemy furnace and replaced it with a new medium-grade bronze furnace. Now he finally understood the intention of the sect master, why ten bronze furnaces were prepared for him.
Furnace? It turns out that when you are new to alchemy, it is common for your pills to explode!
In the second furnace, when the elixir is condensing, it explodes! In the third furnace, after the elixir is formed, it explodes before the furnace is started!
Gu Qing didn't take it seriously at all, and he definitely didn't feel distressed, let alone frown. Instead, he was very pleased with his gradual proficiency in alchemy techniques.
When Gu Qing placed the fourth bronze furnace, Elder Cui finally couldn't sit still and stopped him and said: "Slow down! If you continue to refine like this, all ten bronze furnaces will be lost, and you may not be able to refine a single pill.
!The first-grade first-grade spiritual grass you consumed is not worth much, not to mention that it was taken from the sect’s medicine warehouse and has nothing to do with me. But the middle-grade bronze furnace in my alchemy pavilion is much more valuable! A medium-grade bronze furnace
It’s worth a full two hundred spirit stones, and if you lose three of them so quickly, that’s six hundred spirit stones!”
Elder Cui looked distressed, obviously distressed to death.
Gu Qing was secretly amused, and said calmly: "In that case, please give Elder Cui more advice. Wouldn't it be great if the disciple could learn to master the alchemy technique thoroughly, refine the elixir, and at the same time reduce the loss of the bronze furnace?"
Elder Cui rolled his eyes angrily and snorted: "Look at how you are refining alchemy for the first time. You don't understand the art of alchemy at all! Do you think everyone can learn alchemy? Without any talent for alchemy, you can only rely on countless people to make alchemy."
Only by trying several times can you achieve success in alchemy cultivation. Hehe, you are not from a great cultivating family, and there is no huge resources for cultivating immortals behind you. What will happen even if you learn to refine alchemy? You are destined to be unable to master this method! In my opinion
, you only need to know a little about alchemy, you can just deal with the sect leader, there is no need to waste spiritual herbs and alchemy furnaces."
Gu Qing frowned secretly. It turned out that this old guy was worried about the spiritual grass and the alchemy furnace. He thought that he did not have the financial resources to refine alchemy and would not achieve great success in the alchemy path in the future, so he lazily taught it.
But Gu Qing then thought again. Apart from consulting this stingy alchemy master, he really couldn't find a suitable candidate. He simply gave in to what he liked and took out ten middle-grade spiritual stones from the storage bag.
Pass it to Elder Cui.
"Recently, this junior has been practicing in natural caves and taking charge of ice caves. He has obtained a lot of spiritual stones and spiritual herbs, so he returned to Medicine Valley to learn alchemy. These spiritual stones are to compensate for the loss of the alchemy furnace. If Elder Cui is willing to do his best,
I will teach my disciple how to make alchemy and refine the elixir. I will also give you ten middle-grade spiritual stones! Please work hard!"
This trick really works!
Elder Cui's eyes brightened when he saw that he had taken thousands of spirit stones, as if he had become dozens of years younger in an instant! He quickly accepted it with a smile and nodded repeatedly: "Haha, it's easy to talk! It turns out that my nephew is in Bing.
A lot has been gained in the cave! Come on, I will tell you in detail what you need to pay attention to when putting in herbs and condensation pills. The key is to watch the heat correctly, and I will demonstrate it to you again!"
Elder Cui showed a hundredfold enthusiasm and taught Gu Qing the alchemy technique carefully again. He wished that he could refine the elixir immediately. He was even more anxious than Gu Qing so that he could collect his ten middle-grade spiritual stones.
Gu Qing secretly lamented that he did not dare to compliment Master Anding's character, but he still admired his skillful alchemy techniques and paid extra attention to him.
In this way, Elder Cui taught tirelessly, and Gu Qing took the trouble to practice again and again, and finally refined a batch of first-class first-class rejuvenating pills!
When Gu Qing opened the furnace, he smelled a faint medicinal fragrance and saw that among the twelve pills, only two were round and round, and the remaining ten were all shapeless waste pills. Even so, Gu Qing still
I was so excited that I happily gave Elder Cui ten middle-grade spiritual stones.
Elder Cui naturally smiled from ear to ear, praising Gu Qing's amazing talent in alchemy, and rushed to say: "I wonder if my nephew still has spirit stones? I will teach my nephew how to refine other elixirs."
!Although the methods of alchemy are similar, there are still many differences."
Gu Qing saw that he was eager to teach the refining methods of other elixirs, so he nodded and asked: "May I ask the elders, how to increase the elixir production rate? Is it based on long-term elixir refining? With the development of elixir refining techniques,
Being proficient, you will naturally improve?"
Elder Cui rolled his eyes and said conspiratorially: "It's true as you said, but I can guarantee that I will teach you my experience in alchemy, so that you can avoid many detours and save a lot of spiritual herbs and alchemy furnaces. Hehe, it can definitely be done.
You can save a lot of spiritual stones and be promoted to an alchemist as soon as possible! My nephew only needs to spend a few medium-grade spiritual stones to get so many benefits, why not?"
Elder Cui initially made some insidious remarks, but later he simply asked Gu Qing for the spirit stone.
Later, Gu Qing simply negotiated with Elder Cui. If he really imparted his experience in alchemy to Gu Qing's satisfaction, Gu Qing would add a middle-grade spiritual stone and ask Elder Cui to answer all questions.
Gu Qing learned the art of alchemy from him, and it turned into a kind of transaction. Driven by the spirit stone, Elder Cui worked extra hard, even more conscientiously than the sect leader Zhao Yuan when he was there.
With in-depth study, Gu Qing became familiar with almost all the refining methods of first- and second-level spiritual pills, including the brewing of second-level spiritual wine, etc. He even learned from Elder Cui that with his ability to secure the tripod
In the middle stage of cultivation, only after being promoted from an alchemy disciple to an alchemy master can one refine elixirs one level higher than one's own, such as the third-level God-Returning Pill.
Seeing that he had almost learned alchemy, no matter what kind of elixir he was refining, as long as he followed the instructions on the elixir, the alchemy techniques were almost the same. Gu Qing knew that his only shortcoming was his proficiency and experience in alchemy.
Only when the elixir yield rate of refining the best elixirs of the same level reaches more than 70%, can one be promoted to an alchemist and refine third-level elixirs.
In the end, Gu Qing couldn't ask for any valuable information from Elder Cui, so he finally stood up and left.
Elder Cui hurriedly picked up the spirit stone on the ground, reluctantly gave it away, and said with a smile on his face: "In the future, if my nephew Gu Xian encounters any problems in the process of refining alchemy, just ask me! I will definitely tell you everything I know!"
"
Gu Qing casually cupped his hands and walked away, directly to the sect's alchemy room. In the name of his master, Sect Master Zhao, who ordered him to learn alchemy, he ordered the disciples of the alchemy room to rub all the low-level elixir prescriptions for him.
Gu Qing passed through the sect teleportation array in Yaogu and arrived at Fengyu Town.
In the market, Gu Qing spared no expense and purchased a large number of top-quality bronze furnaces for the price of one thousand spiritual stones for making alchemy. He even bought many types of low-level spiritual grass or spiritual grass seeds, no matter how valuable they were.
All the worthless ones, as long as the best ones can be grown in the white jade gourds in the bellies of golden ants, which can be used to refine elixirs and improve the experience of elixir refining, Gu Qing will take them all into his pocket.
After everything was purchased, Gu Qing returned to the Medicine Sect and passed through the teleportation array on the side of the Medicine Sect's main hall to the Sunset Forest. Finally, Gu Qing entered the ice cave on the second floor of the cave and directly gave Liu Bao and Sun Erhu instructions.
They said they were going into seclusion and no one was allowed to disturb them.
Gu Qing returned to Bing Mansion, while sitting cross-legged and meditating, taking Ruyi Pills to strengthen his body and strengthen his body. While doing daily practice of elixirs to temper his body, he immersed his soul body into the white jade gourd in the belly of the golden ant with his mind.
At the edge of the spiritual field, an array flag was set up, a top-quality bronze furnace was set up, and frantic alchemy began!
Gu Qing had a large amount of spiritual grass grown in the spiritual fields of the Immortal Mansion, plus the best bronze furnace and fire spiritual stones were enough, and he started to make alchemy like crazy!
As for the way of alchemy, Gu Qing learned from Elder Cui that it never changes away from its sect. As long as you learn the alchemy technique, the advancement of alchemy is just a matter of proficiency! Only by gaining experience in alchemy through continuous alchemy, can the rate of elixir production be improved.
It will continue to improve.
Gu Qing has unique conditions for refining alchemy. There is no need to consider the loss of spiritual herbs and alchemy furnaces. It is far better than those alchemy cultivators who have limited spiritual herbs and are stretched thin. They can even continue to refine it without interruption! Gu Qing refines the first-order first-grade spirit.
The elixir yield rate of the grass gradually and steadily increased from the previous one to two percent. When he refined more than twenty furnaces of elixir, he finally reached a 70% elixir yield rate!
"The talk about alchemy talent is completely deceptive! Practice makes perfect!"
Gu Qing has been practicing alchemy for a long time, and finally came to this conclusion. Every time a fresh elixir is released, Gu Qing is too lazy to pick out the elixir, and dumps it all into the storage bag together with the waste elixir without even frowning.
He frowned, and then started refining the higher-grade first-grade mid-grade elixir in full swing.
