Are you kidding me? I just got into alchemy and now I want to refine inferior materials?
One piece of raw materials to make two pills?
Do you really think you are a god?
Before Yan Lao's physical body was destroyed, he took on the most talented disciple. Not only did he have an alchemy body, but he also devoted all his energy to cultivating the art of alchemy. Under his careful guidance, he was barely promoted to an adult.
When he was a third-level alchemist, he mastered the method of refining inferior materials.
Nowadays, some people actually want to complete the process of 'one material with two uses' when refining elixir for the first time. What is this but wishful thinking?
Faced with Yan Lao's doubts, Gu Zuo chose to remain silent.
Now that you have decided to give it a try, there is no reason to back down, and you cannot give up just because of a few words.
He put all his energy into the alchemy furnace.
He didn't know how to refine inferior materials, so he could only explore it on his own.
Take the initiative to divide the Yin Zhuhuo into two groups, follow the refining steps of the Spirit Gathering Pill, and cooperate with the divine control field to refine the raw materials and stripped inferior materials at the same time.
Gu Zuo's dark pupils reflected two blazing flames.
He was sweating profusely, his clothes were soaked, his hair was stained, and he became extremely embarrassed.
Focus, absolutely focus!
Forget everything, forget yourself, and only focus on making elixirs.
Only in this way can we have a chance to refine the Spirit Gathering Pill!
Zhang Wei, who was watching from a distance, was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped. As a fourth-grade alchemist, he was considered outstanding in terms of spiritual power. How could he not know Gu Zuo's method of alchemy?
"How dare he refine inferior materials?"
Incredible, incredible!
As a fourth-grade alchemist, Zhang Wei was unable to successfully refine inferior materials.
Nowadays, a fledgling alchemist actually attempts this kind of behavior that is almost impossible to succeed.
On the other side, Jiang Jiecheng had finished refining the Spirit Gathering Pill, with a smile on his thin face.
"It's done!"
In the elixir furnace, the flames quickly extinguished, the furnace lid flew off, and a line of spirit-gathering elixir with a faint fragrance floated out.
Jiang Jiecheng stretched out his hand and grasped the Spirit-Gathering Pill. The surface of the pill was shiny and smooth. Although it was not the best among Yilu Spirit-Gathering Pills, it was still the top one at the same level.
"Master, please take a look at it."
Jiang Jiecheng wanted to hand the elixir to his master, but found that all of his master's attention was focused on Gu Zuo and had no time to pay attention to him.
"Master?"
He shouted again tentatively, but the other party still ignored him.
This made him completely confused. Following his master's gaze, he turned to look at Gu Zuo who was refining alchemy.
As a second-grade alchemist, it is natural that he cannot see the mystery.
"Why is Master so interested in this boy?"
He didn't understand. Isn't it just refining a spirit-gathering pill? Is there anything worth seeing?
As a fourth-grade alchemist, the chief alchemist of the Qiong Ling Sect, and the top alchemist of the Great Wilderness, my master is best at refining the Spirit Gathering Pill. I am already familiar with the refining steps, so why do I need to make more observations?
Is it possible that I can learn some alchemy skills from this young boy?
"Bang!"
Just when Jiang Jiecheng was racking his brains to figure it out, a muffled sound came from Gu Zuo's end.
The black smoke was lingering and the burning smell was choking.
Yan Lao in the sea of spiritual consciousness covered his face and roared:
"I knew I was going to fail, so this is a good time, right? If you were to be in the alchemy competition, you would have lost your qualifications, and I would lose all my face."
"I'm angry, I'm angry! I'm angry!"
Yan Lao beat his chest and stamped his feet, just like an old gorilla.
That's right, the loud noise was nothing but an explosion.
The most shameful thing for an alchemist is to explode the furnace.
Because the steps required to refine inferior materials are quite different from the original method of refining alchemy, and Gu Zuo didn't know this, even though he controlled the flame very accurately, he couldn't escape the end of the furnace explosion.
"The oven exploded?"
Jiang Jiecheng smiled and hurriedly held up the Spirit Gathering Pill in his hand.
It seems that he wants to tell everyone that he has made a spirit-gathering pill.
"No way, no way, there is someone who can explode a furnace by refining a spirit-gathering elixir? They all say that the art of elixir refining is the essence passed down by our ancestors, and it is not some messy dross. It is so easy to learn.
?”
He was filled with joy, and the verbal ridicule gave him an unprecedented sense of accomplishment.
The meaning of ridicule is not simply to humiliate, but to step on others in this way and gain a feeling of superiority.
Otherwise, why are there so many trolls in the world?
During the show-off session, he was severely slapped in the face, but now he thought he had made a comeback, and his suppressed emotions were suddenly released.
"The most important skill of an alchemist is always the refining of elixirs. Even if the process of lighting the fire is fancy, once the elixir refining fails, all efforts will be equivalent to zero!"
Jiang Jiecheng pointed and thought he was much better than Gu Zuo.
Just when he was triumphant, someone stopped him from this stupid behavior.
"Shut up!"
Zhang Wei was very angry. He had never thought that his apprentice would behave like this. He was a complete embarrassment to his master.
Even, to discredit the alchemy world.
The reason why Yan Lao felt that he had lost face was attributed to:
He regarded the alchemy of his apprentice and Jiang Jiecheng as a competition, and the explosion of the furnace meant elimination from the competition. In addition to Zhang Wei's unintentional ridicule earlier, he felt that he could not lose face.
But Zhang Wei was different. The reason he felt embarrassed was because of his apprentice's ignorance.
Gu Zuo was right about exploding the furnace, but the entire alchemy process revealed a talent for alchemy that far exceeded his own, let alone his own apprentice's.
But his apprentice didn't understand anything, and he still wanted to ridicule him.
What does this mean if you don’t teach well? How can you not be ashamed when you are a master?
"You laughed at him for blowing up the furnace while making alchemy, but do you understand the reason for blowing up the furnace?" Zhang Wei asked angrily.
Jiang Jiecheng was stunned for a moment, not understanding what his master meant, but he still answered according to his own thoughts:
"The explosion of the alchemy furnace was caused by insufficient alchemy skills. This is a shame in the alchemy world."
Not good at alchemy skills? Is the alchemy world a shame?
Zhang Wei has experienced the same situation countless times!
In order to learn how to refine inferior materials, he secretly made elixirs and blasted them countless times.
This kind of explosion is a sign of trying to achieve self-breakthrough in the process of learning, but failing. How can it be linked to the shame of the alchemy world?
There is no alchemist in the world who can guarantee that the furnace will not explode when he first learns the method of refining inferior materials.
Zhang Wei understood that if Gu Zuo did not refine the inferior materials, he would have already finished refining the Yilu Spirit Gathering Pill, and judging from his proficiency in controlling fire, the quality is definitely among the best in the same class.
This kind of self-challenging behavior, in the words of his apprentice, is called a lack of skills?
He was a little too lazy to explain to his apprentice.
"You are not allowed to rest tonight, and you will be punished by refining a hundred pills!"
"ah?"
Jiang Jie is stupid and a little confused.
Did you say something wrong? No, right?
He was a little confused, but as a disciple, he could only agree.
Gu Zuo was not discouraged by this failure. After simply cleaning up the residue left by the explosion, he prepared to refine the Spirit Gathering Pill for the second time.
"Old Yan, do you have any skills?"
He again controlled the Yin candle flames to flow into the alchemy furnace, and asked Mr. Yan if he had any skills for refining inferior materials.
"I feel that there is something missing in the refining method I just used, which ultimately led to the failure to refine the elixir."
The second before the furnace exploded, the refining steps of the Spirit Gathering Pill had been completed in order, and even the essence materials had been condensed into the elixir. Only the inferior materials failed to be refined, causing the furnace to explode directly.
He felt that it was because there was something missing in the whole process.
"snort!"
Mr. Yan snorted coldly. He didn't want to pay attention to Gu Zuo.
But after thinking about it, he finally considered him his apprentice. Finally, he sighed helplessly and said:
"You have to learn to fly before you can crawl. How can you succeed if you are impatient and impatient?"
"The process of refining inferior materials not only needs to follow the original alchemy steps, but also requires an indispensable and vital link."
Sure enough, the reason for the furnace explosion was because a certain link was missing in the refining process, and it had nothing to do with flame control!
