In the living room, Lin Zichen was sitting cross-legged on the floor, with the Panlong Cauldron and a floor full of medicinal materials placed in front of him.
After looking at the cauldron and medicinal materials for a long time, Lin Zichen still didn't start.
Of course he knew that these medicinal materials were relatively precious, especially some of the main ingredients. The Marquis must have asked many people to collect them, and they were very valuable.
Therefore, if the refining fails, it can be said that it will be difficult to find again.
Lin Zichen made a rough calculation. If these materials are used sparingly, they can be refined about five times, but this will also greatly reduce the quality of Long Xiang Dan. To take the quality into consideration, it can be refined three times at most.
In other words, he only has three chances. If he succeeds, he can make three elixirs. If he fails, it will be difficult to find materials after three times.
Mammoth tooth fossils are still available in the market. Although they are rare, many luxury stores still use mammoth tooth fossils to make pendants and other accessories.
But ancient python scales are extremely rare. If all the refining fails, he may have to step out of iron shoes to find them.
"Of course the elixirs I, Lin Zichen, use must be of the best quality. No matter what, I will definitely make one elixir after refining it three times!"
In fact, regarding the Dragon Elephant Pill, Daoxuan Tianzun did not have much consciousness inheritance, but Lin Zichen only refined it through some information.
Daoxuan had many regrets in his life, and not refining the Dragon Elephant Pill was one of them. In addition, he did not enter the Dragon Elephant Realm until he reached the level of Tianzun, which was even more regrettable for him.
The realm is like this. If you don't enter the Dragon Elephant Realm when you are in the Heavenly Realm, you will never have the chance. This is the role of foundation building. Only by laying a good foundation at the beginning can you ensure the stability of the later period. Otherwise, it will always be a pity.
.
If you can practice in other fields, that's all, but if you practice on your own, you will never be able to look back, and there will be no chance for you to re-establish your foundation.
So in fact, Lin Zichen is also a kind of gamble. Even if the Dragon Elephant Pill can really increase the chance of a warrior entering the Dragon Elephant Realm, he doesn't even know how to take it, before or after the Heavenly Human Realm.
Of course, that's not important. The most important thing is that he must try to refine it first.
Until night, Lin Zichen finally nodded, exhaled, and decided to start refining.
He pointed two fingers of one hand at the Panlong Cauldron, and a flame suddenly shot out, going straight to the bottom of the Panlong Cauldron. The moment the flame ignited, it immediately exceeded the height of the Panlong Cauldron by twice as much.
Looking at the powerful flames, Lin Zichen narrowed his eyes slightly, waved his hand, and the ancient python scales on the ground floated slightly.
Afterwards, the ancient python scales, black fish bones, and mammoth tooth powder were all suspended. Lin Zichen said: "The mammoth teeth have turned into powder, and the black fish bones melt immediately after being mixed in. The ancient python scales should be put in first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ancient Python Lin immediately rushed into the flames under his control.
As he thought, the ancient python scales were harder than imagined. They looked as thin as cicada wings, but they were full of incomparable willfulness. The moment they entered the flames, they made a crackling sound, but there was no change on the surface of the python scales.
If it were ordinary scales, it would probably burn when exposed to fire and even turn into ashes quickly, but the ancient python scales remained intact as before.
Lin Zichen nodded and did not rush to put in any other materials, but slowly paid attention to the changes in the ancient python scales.
Refining is the creation and inheritance of alchemists from generation to generation. Sometimes it may not be as written, so it relies more on talent and experience. Therefore, the alchemist needs to discover the subtle changes in alchemy by himself, so as to make a decision on the next step.
.
Therefore, Lin Zichen did not dare to act rashly, but carefully observed every detail change, for fear of missing any critical moment.
Each step in refining may be a critical moment. Even if a refining process takes several days or even dozens of days, smooth refining will take most of the time, and there are only a few key points. If you miss the key
If you click on it, all your previous efforts will be in vain.
In front of the refining cauldron, Lin Zichen watched carefully for several hours, and Xiaofeng in the Vientiane Space also kept feeling Lin Zichen's movements.
Seeing Lin Zichen sitting motionless for several hours, she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart. After all, refining is not a practice. The warrior in practice is a kind of practice, and it is a kind of deep rest. After practice, the warrior will be reborn, mentally and physically.
A feeling of rejuvenation.
But alchemy is different. It can be said that the warrior concentrates all his energy on the process of alchemy. If he is distracted for a moment, priceless materials will be wasted.
So Xiaofeng didn't dare to say a word and never took a break. Although she didn't know how to make alchemy, she watched Lin Zichen's refining the whole time.
The high temperature of the flames had made the living room extremely hot, but Lin Zichen couldn't care less. The sweat on his forehead remained on his eyelids, and he would only blink hard to relieve it.
Moreover, it is best to use a closed space when refining to prevent any wind from interfering with the details of refining.
Looking at the python scales in the flames, Lin Zichen suddenly opened his eyes wide. He saw that the appearance of the python scales suddenly began to deform, and some bubble-like feelings appeared on the surface. This was... about to melt!
Immediately, Lin Zichen immediately put in the mammoth tooth powder, followed by the black fish bones. The viscosity of the black fish bones could protect the python scales from being burned to ashes by the flames, and the mammoth teeth could also be directly fused.
In this way, it’s all done in one go!
But the reality was very different from Lin Zichen's imagination. At this moment, there was just a crisp sound, and the ancient python scales suddenly turned into ashes. At the same time, the sparks generated also turned most of the mammoth tooth powder into gray-black...
Immediately afterwards, there was a strong noise in the flames. Lin Zichen stared directly at the flames, and sweat immediately flowed from his forehead.
For a long time, Lin Zichen stared at the flames in the Panlong Cauldron, but could not say a word. He did not understand which step he made wrong and how he failed so quickly.
Xiaofeng struggled for a while, but finally said: "Master, is this... a defeat?"
Hearing this, Lin Zichen nodded and took a long breath: "Well, this is simply a waste of money."
Lin Zichen certainly understood that although Mr. Hou did not ask for money, these materials were almost never cheap.
And the auxiliary materials haven’t been put in yet, so it really failed too quickly.
"Master, don't worry, Xiaofeng believes you will succeed."
Lin Zichen smiled: "Thank you Xiaofeng, I will try my best."
After saying that, Lin Zichen took a deep breath to adjust his mood, but he couldn't calm down for a long time. After all, it was his first time to try to refine rare elixirs. Although he was determined in his heart, Lin Zichen did not dare to boast about his certainty.
Haikou.
For the refining of higher-grade elixirs, even if it is done once, I dare not say that I have reached the level of a senior pharmacist. After all, it may be due to accident, not to mention... Lin Zichen has never succeeded even once.
Lin Zichen thought to himself, the ancient python scales had been burned for so long without any change, but at that moment they were instantly burned to ashes. Could it be related to the fact that I put in mammoth teeth and black fish bones?
Ancient python scales seem to be extremely tough, but they also have a fragile side. When encountering flames, they will not melt for a long time. However, once other materials enter the flames, the flames will inevitably burn more intensely. It is precisely because of this change that
The ancient python scales have lost their original toughness!
He nodded, that must be the case. It seems that before putting in other materials, I should use my true energy to protect the ancient python scales.
"Okay, let's start the second time!"
With that said, Lin Zichen extinguished the flames in the cauldron. After all, the flames that failed to be refined would be mixed with burned ashes, which would affect the refining process.
So he rekindled the flame and started refining again!
Watching the master start again, Xiaofeng felt indescribably distressed, but this was Lin Zichen's character. The more difficulties he encountered, the more he would rise to them. It can even be said that the dissatisfaction in his heart would be triggered immediately.
, this is the strongest competition with oneself.
At this moment, Xiaofeng was suddenly stunned. She suddenly found a little purple lion Kaka lying in a dark corner and opened its eyes.
"Oh my god... Kaka?"
The little purple lion's eyes were as clear as spring water, full of ignorance and innocence. It looked at the darkness around it, showing a slightly frightened expression, and the purple hairs all over its body stood on end.
Xiaofeng hurried over and stroked Kaka's forehead a few times with her hands. Only then did the little purple lion's expression soften.
"Kaka, are you awake? You've been sleeping for a long time." Xiaofeng squatted and said, with a look of love on his face.
Maybe Kaka will become an extremely domineering lion, but at least at this moment, he is still very cute.
Kaka rubbed her head against Xiaofeng's hand, then stuck out her tongue and licked Xiaofeng's palm, making Xiaofeng giggle.
"Hahaha, it's so itchy, please stop licking it, it's tickling me to death."
Although Kaka didn't understand what Xiaofeng meant, she laughed along, as if she was a natural imitator.
Perhaps because he tried too hard to imitate, Kaka laughed so hard that he coughed. Seeing the little guy coughing, Xiaofeng burst out laughing.
"Little guy, you are so cute. I really hope you never grow up."
Kaka opened his eyes wide and raised the corners of his mouth slightly towards Xiaofeng, full of aura.
But not long after, Kaka yawned again, his eyelids immediately drooped, he stuck out his tongue and licked his mouth, and immediately lay down again.
"Ah? You still want to sleep, right? Do you want to sleep for several years?"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Xiaofeng nodded: "That's right. There is enough energy in the master's space. Maybe it is too comfortable. Sleeping here may be the fastest way to grow."
Soon, Kaka fell asleep again, sleeping deeply and sweetly, but the corners of her mouth kept smiling.
Xiaofeng touched Kaka's hair and said, "Well, you can continue to sleep, I'm going to see the master make alchemy."
Time passes slowly, night, dawn, and then night again.
Lin Zichen's second refining has been going on for a whole day, and this time, he also used the results of his analysis to solve the problem of the ancient python scales being burned to ashes. Obviously his choice was right.
It was not until the third day that Lin Zichen finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now all the materials had been refined normally. If this was the case, after a long period of refining, it would slowly reach the stage of becoming a pill, and in this way he would not have to continue to refine it.
Stared.
The true energy in the Vientiane Space plus the effect of the Molten Fire Crystal can solve big problems for him.
But as soon as he relaxed, he heard a loud explosion in the flames, and Lin Zichen was paralyzed on the spot...
